The Whispers are an American group from Los Angeles, California, who have scored hit records since the late 1960s. The Whispers were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2003, and were winners of the Rhythm and Blues Foundation's Pioneer Award in 2008. By popular vote, the group was inducted into The SoulMusic Hall Of Fame at SoulMusic.com in December 2012, and The Official R&B Music Hall of Fame in 2014.
The Whispers formed in 1963 in Watts, California. The original members included identical twin brothers Wallace "Scotty" and Walter Scott, along with Gordy Harmon, Marcus Hutson, and Nicholas Caldwell. After being invited to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1966 by Sly Stone, the group relocated to that area where they began developing a reputation as a show-stopping live act. Walter Scott was drafted to serve in the Vietnam War during that period for eighteen months, returning to the group in 1969 after discharge. After Harmon injured his larynx in a driving accident in 1973, he was replaced by former Friends of Distinction member Leaveil Degree.
The group scored many hits on the R&B and Billboard Hot 100 charts throughout the 1970s and 1980s, and they hit #1 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart in 1979/80 with "And the Beat Goes On / "Can You Do the Boogie" / "Out the Box". In 1987, they enjoyed a brief tenure in the Top 10 when "Rock Steady" became their first Top 10 success on the Hot 100, reaching #7, while also capturing the #1 spot on the R&B chart.
After a series of singles on Los Angeles label, Dore, the group signed to a small LA label, Soul Clock, run by producer Ron Carson, who was responsible for their breakthrough hit, "Seems Like I Got To Do Wrong" in 1970. Moving to the larger New York-based Janus label, they continued to be produced by Carson, before he sold all of his recordings to Janus with the group then recording mainly in Philadelphia in the mid '70s. Since that period, most of their studio work has been done in Los Angeles. Their most successful period was in the 1980s with SOLAR Records (Sound Of Los Angeles Records), which was operated by their manager at the time, Dick Griffey. The Whispers later established their own production company, Satin Tie Productions, through which they released their independent 2006 album For Your Ears Only.
The group opened Game 2 of the 1989 World Series at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum with their rendition of the National Anthem.
Marcus Hutson left the group in 1992 due to prostate cancer. According to the Whispers' website, when Hutson died of it in 2000, they vowed to never replace him and started performing as a quartet.
Jerry McNeil resigned his position as keyboardist in the latter part of 1993 in order to spend more time with his family. In 2014, The Whispers were inducted into The Official R&B Music Hall of Fame.
The Philadelphia soul songwriter team Allan Felder, Norman Harris, Bunny Sigler, and Ronnie Baker provided several of The Whispers' songs, including "A Mother for My Children" and "Bingo".
Nicholas Caldwell died of congestive heart failure at his San Francisco home on January 5, 2016.

A wish is much more than just a nice to have but now a need to have and its reach extends far beyond a single event, or moment in time. Wish kids, parents, medical professionals, volunteers, and others say that wish experiences can change the lives of everyone involved.
According to the results of a 2011 Wish Impact Study that surveyed wish parents, health professionals, and volunteers, a wish come true empowers children with life-threatening medical conditions to fight harder against their illnesses.
Improved Health Status (a combined 89% of doctors, nurses and health professionals surveyed say they believe a wish experience can influence wish kids' physical health.)
Health professionals who treat wish kids, including nurses and doctors, overwhelmingly believe that the wish experience can improve a wish kids' physical health and has the potential to be a positive turning point in the child's battle for health.
Parents and volunteers observe that a wish come true makes kids feel stronger and more energy.
Wish kids are more willing to comply with difficult, but vital, treatment regimens.
Parents and medical professionals alike describe the wish experience as a frequent turning point in wish kids' battles for health.
Enhanced State of Mind (99% of parents reported that the wish experience gave their children increased feelings of happiness and 96 percent said that the wish experience strengthened their families.)
Children and their parents alike experience more happiness and less fear in their lives.
Children are less isolated from friends, and feel a return of self-confidence that comes with feeling "normal" again.
They are empowered to take back control of their lives, and to keep up the fight against their life-threatening medical conditions.
Parents say their family units – often strained to the limit by stresses of the illnesses – are repaired and strengthened through the shared experience of the wish process.
Strengthened Communities (99% of community volunteers reported an increased sense of compassion and 84 percent felt an increased faith in humanity.)
Volunteers feel an increased sense of compassion and desire to help others in their community.
They feel a renewed faith in humanity.
They trust others more and feel more optimistic about the future.
They feel a greater long-term commitment to philanthropy.

Thank you for giving me my child back. This was how I remembered her before her illness happened!

Part of my 2009 flag proposal series. SVG files of the flag and its construction sheet are available on request.
Note: My choice of design does not reflect my political views.
10th anniversary update
This proposal has taken on a life its own and gone viral since 2009! It was adapted for regicollis' DeviantArt project and Ben Karnell's list of best US state proposals. In its original form, my design was also directly plagiarised and claimed by a user on the Vexillology Wiki (not cool!). I'm pleasantly surprised – I never promoted these pages anywhere else, and I never expected this particular design to get popular. A good design is adaptable, spreads on its own merits and is worth imitating, so I'm happy that this design is proven to be good on such terms.
The current design
The current flag scored a 3.17/10.00 in NAVA's North American flag survey, which is the 9th worst rating.
My proposal
First off, this design is unique enough to be distinguishable, yet simple enough to be remembered by a child.
The overall design depicts mountainous terrain underneath a blue sky, which is in the same shade as the blue on the national flag. The eight pointed star represents the sun, vitality and life. Its brilliance reflects the official nickname "The Gem State", with the whole design echoing another nickname, "Gem of the Mountains". It also represents the high aspirations and achievements of Idaho. More generally, the blue represents the sky and the ocean, the white represents the snow and the green represents the land. The colours are all present on the current flag, so any further symbolism they have can be carried over as well.

Management Education System in Austria is quite similar compared to other European countries although It is very new and majority of the institutions are located near to Vienna. Austria has improved the Educational Infrastructure and the management schools are a product of the same.
There are Austrian local universities which work along with the European and American management Institutes to improve the standard and offer a wide range of courses. There are also business enterprises which collaborated in the development of management education.
There are various types of courses like Part time , full time , executive MBA programs along with many professional and skill development programs. There are many specialized courses in Hospitality, Tourism, project management, Economics. Management education is given in English and German Language. Many of the courses are taught in German.
The Education fees is comparatively low but scholarship grants for international students need to be checked in the business schools. Many grants cover only part of the entire education program.
Management schools in Austria currently don't have much international reputation but there are significant developments in the improvement of quality of education to meet higher standards. Students need to have secondary education standards to join graduate programs but they need to have appropriate work experience and subject knowledge. Some of the institutions conduct their own entrance exam tests.

Bryan Cook, friend of the podcast and author of the new BA campaign book, is the guest on this episode. After being interrogated for a bit about ANZAC history, Bryan talked through the process of putting together a book to cover the Hungarian campaign in WWII. There is discussion of new missions, selectors, units and a historical overview (lots of content for late-war German and Soviet players, as well as the Hungarian and Romanians).

Have you been staring at a blank Word document, taunted by the blinking cursor? It's hard to write an email newsletter or blog post when you can't think of a good topic. That's why I've put together a list of 10 great ideas to write about to help you get a jump start on your agency's content for May.
- Cinco de Mayo (May 5th): While many people celebrate Cinco de Mayo by drinking beer and margaritas, there are plenty of interesting cultural tidbits to learn about before the fiesta starts. Did you know that the day originally celebrated the Mexican victory during the Battle of Puebla? It's the perfect time to give your clients some fun historical facts and talk about the nutrients and healing properties found within foods that come from south of the border, such as chili peppers, cilantro and avocados.
- Mother's Day (May 11th): Share some of your favorite ways to pamper your mother. Do you take her somewhere special or cook a nice meal? Your clients will appreciate the Mother's Day tips so they can plan their own day to celebrate mom.
- Memorial Day (May 26th): Many people travel over Memorial Day weekend, so this is a good time to talk about travel safety tips and travel insurance. Equally as popular, hosting a BBQ party can be a fire hazard, which makes it a good time for grilling safety tips. You may even throw in a recipe or two to remind clients that fun is as important as safety.
- Allergy relief: Are you struggling with itchy eyes, a drippy nose and constant sneezing? Over-the-counter medicines rarely seem to do the trick, but many natural remedies-a saline nasal wash, Eucalyptus oil, HEPA air filters etc.-have been known to relieve allergy symptoms. Try the remedies out and share your experiences with your clients.
- Skin Protection: We all know that being in the sun for extended periods of time can cause serious skin damage. Remind your clients to apply sunscreen or wear long-sleeved shirts and/or brimmed hats when spending time outdoors this summer.
- Extreme heat risks: Not only can heat cause dehydration, sun burn and heatstroke, but it can also warp or crack your car's dashboard and other interior components. Compile a list of tips for handling extreme heat so your clients can protect themselves and their vehicles.
- Summer home concerns: Summer also brings unique risks to homeowners. For instance, we have to water our foundation here in Texas because of the clay in our soil. Inform your clients of any local summer needs, along with seasonal liability risks, including trampolines and swimming pools.
- Water shortage: Many areas of the country see less rainfall during the hot summer months, and some cities even undergo water bans. How do people prepare for a water shortage? Here's your chance to let them know.
- Children's activities: Once school is out for the summer, many parents suffer through the whines of bored children. That's no fun for anyone. Help parents out by making a list of a few children's activities, like community sports leagues and arts and crafts projects, to give parents a head start on occupying their kids.
- Natural disasters: Spring and summer bring warm weather, but it's not always sunny. In fact, most tornadoes and hurricanes occur during this time of year. Many people are unclear about the details of home insurance, so explain the natural disasters that are included and those that are excluded from standard policies.
With 10 new fresh content ideas in mind, take the afternoon to type up your next few email newsletters or blog posts. What other seasonal ideas can you come up with?

Social justice needs to go beyond helping workless families
Responding to today's Department for Work and Pensions announcement on workless families, Campbell Robb, chief executive of the independent Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF), said:
"Today's announcement on supporting workless families and helping people with complex needs is welcome, however the plans set out by the Government fall far short of a comprehensive plan needed to deliver social justice when there are 14 million people living in poverty.
"Work should be the best route out of poverty, but this strategy will only get a small number of people so far. Our analysis suggests nearly three-quarters of children in long-term workless households live in lone parent families, while around half live in families where at least one person is disabled. The strategy overlooks the significant barriers faced by such groups.
"We hope this is the start of a more wide-ranging plan to create a Britain that works for everyone, rather than the conclusion."

|RT Bailey
DateLine: 6th January 2009
East Lancs have tied up a professional for the forthcoming season.
 A happy East Lancs Chairman Larry Pearson revealed; "I am delighted to confirm the signing of South African all-rounder Ryan Bailey. Aged 26, he is no stranger to the north-west as he played as professional for Carnforth in the Northern League in 2008, scoring 859 runs from just 15 innings at an average of 78.09. For East Lancs he acted a sub-pro four times scoring an amazing 311 runs, and taking 16 economical wickets.
 "He is continuing the good form in South Africa where he has established himself in the Eagles side as a genuine all-rounder." Since making his First-class debut in 2003, Bailey has notched 2627 runs at 30.5 with four centuries. His right-arm medium pace has so far accounted for nine First-class victims. Bailey will be East Lancs' 14th South African professional following in the footsteps of Jimmy Blanckenberg, Hugh Tayfield, Pat Trimborn, Peter Swart, Cyril Mitchley, Steve Jeffries, Allan Dawson, Billy Stelling, Claude Henderson, Con De Lange, Johann Louw, Quinton Friend and Loots Bosman who was the most recent in 2005.

I can't believe this, but I will post this publicly to shame myself for being such an idiot.
Step 1 when putting your tires back on the car, be sure that you put the proper tire on the proper end. I had the driver's side tires switched, front on the rear and rear on the front. The passenger side was fine, so with a 17" on one rear and 18" on the other things go haywire......
This was an expensive screw up..
Thanks to all our sponsors, perhaps one day CorvetteZ06.org will gain some life (a new ride) but for now check out our latest ride SpecFRS.com

The most striking feature of this map is the gardens: the detail in which they are shown and their size.
The more exclusive development along Camberwell Grove, Grove Lane, Champion Hill and Denmark Hill are more or less complete, while much of the eastern portion shows open fields awaiting development.

UCLA economist Lee Ohania points out that in late 1929 and early 1930 a Depression-level industrial employment crash occurred before any serious deflation or banking panic hit the U.S. economy:
Economists cite monetary contraction (Friedman and Schwartz, 1963) and banking panics (Bernanke, 1983) as important determinants of the Depression, but industry was significantly depressed before either of these factors was quantitatively important. The attached figure shows per-capita industrial hours worked between January 1929 and September 1930, and two measures of the money stock from Friedman and Schwartz that roughly correspond to M1 and M2. Hours decline substantially, but these two measures of the money supply fall only about 4%, and 1%, respectively. Moreover, there are no significant banking panics during this early stage of the Depression. Friedman and Schwartz date the first banking panic occurring from November 1930 until January 1931, but this first episode is after industrial hours have fallen 30%. Moreover, Wicker (1996) argues that this first banking episode did not have important macroeconomic effects, which he states is also consistent with the views of Friedman and Schwartz.
Here's Ohanian's key graphic:

MINARET OF JAM – Ghor Afghanistan – Jaam e Minar.
The Minaret of Jam is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in a remote district called Shahrak, in Ghor Province. The minaret was built in 12th century of baked bricks which carry intricate calligraphic inscriptions in Arabic language. These inscriptions contain Quranic verses, Muslim confession of faith as well as names and titles of local rulers.
The minaret is 62 meters high and is one of about 60 minarets built by the Ghurid dynasty in the Middle Ages. It is the tallest brick minaret in the world with octagonal base and lantern on the top. It was originally attached the Friday Mosque, which was unfortunately washed away during flood
already in the 13thcentury. This was discovered by the evidence of once-existing large courtyard just next to the minaret, as well as river sediments on the paving. The presence of rivers Hari and Jam, with their regular flooding and subsequent erosion as well as frequent earthquakes in the region are the threats for the minaret until these days.

Architecture is a notoriously demanding degree that involves both theoretical and practical aspects. However, if you have that yearning to plan, draw, design and create then architecture is certainly the degree for you and one that you will find immensely satisfying, rewarding and fulfilling. Architecture is unlike many other degrees in that it is vocational: someone who studies architecture at university knows that he or she wants to become a practicing architect in some form in his or her future career.
If you are interested in preparing for an undergraduate degree in Architecture or Architectural Design then please register and book a free online introductory session with one of our experts.
We will conduct a free 30-minute introductory online meeting via the AGF Tutoring platform. During this meeting we will get a clear idea of who you are, what you want to do and where and therefore suggest what preparation you will require. If you agree to our suggestions, then you will be prompted to proceed to Step 2 for which there is a fee of 500 USD.
We will ask you to submit as much of your art work and design as possible so that we can ascertain your potential. Your work will be scrutinized by some of our experienced practicing architects as well as our tutors. They will give their honest and objective opinion as to your strengths and realistic potential. Once this has been established then a structured preparation programme can be set out. We will send all the reports and the proposed preparation programme to you. If you agree to our proposal, then you can move on to Step 3.

Release Date: April 10, 2006
The Dark Ones and the Shining Ones orchestrate their armies while
remaining hidden themselves. Seemingly enemies, these armies can only
guess at the schemes and goals of their masters. Hunters, the imbued, the
armies of the Shining Ones, are only a recent arrival to the World of
Darkness, especially to the perception of a Methuselah. Perhaps other
Methuselahs are slow to recognize the threat, and even slower to see their
utility. But not you. Or perhaps the imbued were empowered by other
Methuselahs to fight you, and you're the latecomer. Either way, the Nights
of Reckoning have arrived.
Seven creeds of imbued hunters stand, sometimes united, sometimes alone,
to take back the night. See that your prey greets the light first.
Nights of Reckoning is a mini expansion for Vampire: The Eternal
Struggle, the tenth expansion set released by White Wolf, and the
first to introduce non-vampire crypt cards.
Each booster pack contains 10 cards randomly selected from a set of
60 all-new cards consisting of 20 rares, 20 uncommon crypt cards,
and 20 commons. Each booster also contains one rules cards from the
set of five rules cards describing the new rules for the set.
For added use in draft or sealed play, each rules card also doubles
as a library card as indicated on the card when turned upside down.
The library cards represented on the rules cards are chosen from
previous sets for their general utility (that both vampires and
imbued can use).
Locate players in your area at
Order your Nights of Reckoning cards now at your local game and
hobby store or order directly from the
online catalog.
Three cards in Nights of Reckoning are misprinted:
In earlier sets, card effects that deal with crypt cards have generally
assumed that crypt cards were all vampires. Now that this is no longer true,
some questions arise.
In general, if you (the Methuselah playing the card or activating the effect)
can look at the crypt card (e.g., because it is in your uncontrolled
region or in any ash heap or in play, or if you're "searching" your crypt),
then the target crypt card must match the parameters given by the effect. This
usually means that imbued cannot be targets of these effects.
If you target a crypt card "blind" (either an unseen card from the crypt
or an unseen card in some other Methuselah's uncontrolled region), then
work with whatever you find. If the effect only checks/compares the card's
"capacity", then treat the imbued's cost (starting life) as its capacity for
that comparision.
Those two guidelines should clear up all the ways of interacting with
imbued who aren't in play. But for clarity, individual cases are shown
The following effects are imbued-compatible:
The following effects are not imbued-compatible:
Note: Heaven's Gate text applies in full -- an imbued can be moved to the
uncontrolled region, controlled but not ready, and will eventually be
moved to the ready region just as a "normal" ally would be.
These rulings go into effect when the set is legal for play.
All imbued are Uncommon (U) rarity.

Are earthquakes a sign of the end of the world?
- Details
- Parent Category: FAQs
- Category: Questions about Bible Prophecy and the End Times
- Published on Wednesday, 23 October 2013 19:35
Are earthquakes a sign of the end of the world?
Jesus mentioned in Matthew 24 that there would be a number of signs that precede his return to the earth. These signs include false prophets claiming to be Christ, wars, famines and earthquakes.
Matthew 24:5-8 many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and they will lead many astray. (6) And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. (7) For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. (8) All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.
These signs will occur in the beginning of the time of tribulation, leading up to the key event mentioned in Matthew 24:15, the abomination of desolation, when the Antichrist takes up his position as a god worthy of worship.
There are no signs given to us to predict when Christ will return for His Church in the rapture. Any signs we can distinguish, whether politically, spiritually or physically, show us that Christ's return to the Mount of Olives is coming closer. Make no mistake, that the current pace of earthquakes and wars will have no comparison with the time of tribulation.
Matthew 24:21-22 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. (22) And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.

May 5 2012 stay over night at Hilton Garden Inn Old Gate land Miford 06460.
That hotel was dirty,washroom was not clean from night before.This situation will give your compagny very bad name.
Ridiculous answers from GM. Traveling to DC area to attend Redskins game. After checking in we were informed that the pool is open at 5:00 pm. We checked in at noon and are traveling with 4 kids. We have to leave at 6:30 for the game and will not return until after midnight. That gives us less than an hour to enjoy the pool before getting ready for the game. HOW ABOUT STATING THESE POOL HOURS ON YOUR WEBSITE!!!! We would have stayed elsewhere! GM says Prince Georges County code says they can't open pool until 5:00. I called. No such regulation. They just don't want to pay the lifeguard. We offered to pay the guard if they would come in a little early. That was laughed off. As an Honors member I don't appreciate being.laughed at by jackasses that I am and employing. Marriott here I come!ReplyDelete
We called to complain about the screaming baby that had been screaming for an hour and keeping my child up. The front desk said there was no manager on duty. She would call us back. We still have not heard from her. The same people woke us up at 11pm. No help what so ever from customer service. We then received ok ir bill which was less than what they charhed my bank account. They said wvwry hotel charges more for security. No one informed me of this whwn I made the reservation or checked in. Apparently this brand of hotel is only out for money. Bc we went to talk tothe manager and once again they said there is no manager on duty. I will b report ing this company to the better business bureau and what ever I can do to make sure people don't waste their money on this brand of hotel.ReplyDelete
Stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn in Colonial Heights Va and the head of housekeeping Ann Slate tried to buy my prescription of narcotic pain medication from me and when i refused she became irate and violent. Never will i ever use this hotel again.ReplyDelete
Stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn in Folsom, Ca. After I was told at night coming in from my day out, I was told that someone was smoking in my room. I was charged well AFTER I checked out 150. I was told that the smoke alarm did not go off, so I assume that if someone smoked in there it would have gone off due to the "HEAVY SMELL" from the room. Two people claim to have went inside the room while I was gone but due to the fact that I had a guest there the whole time that this didnt actually happen, then I was told that the smoking fee is non-refundable and that they dont need to evidence to prove people had smoked in a hotel room. The do not disturb sign never left my door during my three day stay either.ReplyDelete
I recently stayed a week in the Hilton Garden in Oxford Al and had the exact same thing happen to me! I recieved my bill and there was a $250 charge from "smoking in a non-smoking room".. I never smoked in the room but when the house cleaning went through there was an EMPTY pack of cigarettes in the trash can. So they claimed that 2 people also went in my room and said they smelled smoke. In my 12 yrs of travelling I have never smoked in my room but I have thrown old packs away after smoking in the designated areas.. I think this is how they get extra money.Delete
These hotels are now dives.Delete
The elite Hiltons laugh at dis gruntled and ripped off guests. Motel 6 would be the improvement.Delete
My wife is in the hospital. I was told they have discounts to help you. When I contacted them. I was informed they only had a few rooms left. For that reason it would be full price. Been sleeping in my car two days now. I won't be spending my money on a place that cares less. I hope the extra money was worth it. Hilton garden inn next to albany med thanks for nothing !!.
This weekend my brother and I are travling to Winter Haven Florida for a Youth Bowling Tournament. My brother is one of the coaches. He orginally held but did not reserve 10-12 rooms so that the parents could call in and pay to reserve there own rooms by a certian date. He was told by the female that if the rooms were not reserved by a certian date she would take them off hold and it would be a first come first serve basis. Everyone said ok and the parents started to reserve there rooms. By the end of the days allowed two rooms were not reserved. My brother had called in and made sure they were taken off hold and would not be charged for anything to his card. He was told no problem by the same girl. We called today to make sure we could do a late check in and the same girl told us that there are 3 rooms under my brothers card. He said no and went back over the previous discussions. She now claims none of the above happened. He called and spoke to her manager who told him with out even letting him talk " i already spoke to my assoicate and im not playing any of your games. you will be charged for 3 rooms at 2 nights per room" and hung up on him. He never even let my brother introduce himself or explain anything. i have gotten all the corprate numbers and i will be filing fraud on the credit card if they charge those rooms. After reading all the complaints i will make a point to NEVER stay at another Hilton of any kind ever!!!! This has started off our weekend horrorably. I cant wait for someone to sue Hilton and take all there Money for all the shitty and rude and nasty serivce they are providing!!!ReplyDelete
We stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn in Oconomowoc WI this past weekend September 12-15. There was a family wedding in Oconomowoc so my whole family stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn. The receptionist, Juerge Weinmann, was extremely rude to everyone of my family when they checked in (at different times). He certainly should not be employed in any job that has to do with customer relations. We also found that the reservation department made many mistakes. They put my sister down as needing two rooms with a connecting door when she only needed one without a connecting door. The receptionist gave my sister a very hard time about this insisting that she had reserved two rooms. My daughter, her husband and three children reserved a room with a connecting door, however when they checked in they were told there were no more rooms with connecting doors. We had a wonderful time in Oconomowoc, but none of us will ever stay in a Hilton Garden Inn again!!ReplyDelete
I tried to cancel due to injury at Hilton Garden Inn in Beaverton OR, today. But because I am not canceling 7 days in advance I was told I will be charged regardless for Friday night. Even with a Dr note provided. This is a soccer tournament hotel sponsor so we all know that this room will be booked immediately and the hotel will collect for Friday night by another guest as well. I will never book rooms in block at this hotel again! Beware of stipulations as this is how the account executives make their commission! Very poor customer service and was treated extremely rude.

We stayed at HGI Central park South NY in April 2014, two rooms for my family. We had been booked PRE PAYED into HGI Tribeca but was contacted by Expedia as they were over booked and offered the HGI Central park South. Everything went fine until we were charged again by HGI Central Park South for both rooms. After a number of phone calls and numerous email it was straightened out.
Now in July 2014 HGI Central Park South charges my credit card AGAIN for one room. over $1000. AGAIN countless phone calls at my expense as I am in Canada, and numerous emails it is being straightened out again.
No word of any compensation whatsoever from HGI Central Park South. Shameful....... WATCH your credit cards and do not delete emails confirming PRE PAYMENT of rooms.
Vote with your feet. Don't stay at this place! Terrible Customer Service!ReplyDelete
I have a very positive thing to say...we had a great stay at the Hilton garden inn by the Sonoma county airport....I had surgery & need a comfortable quiet place to heal...your staff was very very helpful from front desk staff to housekeeping...we want to thank you for working with us....keep up the great customer service..MahaloReplyDelete
The General Manager at HGI Lynchburg, VA needs to be replaced. Sue Spencer is extremely incompetent as a GM. Housekeeping is very obviously rushed as the rooms are not as clean as they should be. She clearly doesn't do much as a GM, and difficult to work with. I have heard many of the front desk staff complain that she refuses to assist even on the busiest days. She does not answer her phone nor does her management team unless its convienient for them to do so. Turn over at this hotel is very high, and she has fired employees for any reason even showing favoritism to certain employees. Some of her employees steal and yet they continue to have their jobs. Time wasted on ridiculous meetings everyday discussing issues with the staff that are never fixed anyway. This hotel is a joke and needs a serious turn around because it has been dragged for several years by this weak brained manager. Nothing positive to say about this hotel, or its management. Sue sweeps serious issues under the rug to keep her own job, meanwhile her lackeys do all her work while she scrambles to make it "look good". HGI human resources needs to seriously investigate this GM and get a competent replacement.ReplyDelete
On July 25, 2015, I made a terrible decision to stay at the Hilton Garden Inn Hotel Downtown Jackson, MS, 235 W. Capital St., Jackson, MS 39201, instead of going to the Marriott. Upon departure from the hotel on July 26, 2015, I went to retrieve my vehicle from valet to learn that it had been stolen from the premises which is a gated lot. My expectations of this establishment and the Parking Management Services, Inc. were not up to standards. Please do not ever make reservations at this hotel, had I known they only use valet parking I would have gone to the Marriott like my gut instincts warned me. I waited patiently 6 hours in the lobby for management to try to rectify the problem so I could get home after calling the police. When my car was located due to me contacting OnStar to disable the vehicle, it was damaged and vandalized. I had to hire and attorney to get the hotel and valet company to rectify the problem.ReplyDelete
My Stay Hilton Garden Inn Temple Texas,
After checking in on first day, the room was clean so I thought. After retiring for the evening, I turned back the bed covering to find that the sheets had not been changed. We went out and bought new sheets the first night striped the bed and sprayed it down. The next day we put the hotel sheet back on the bed only to find out they still did not change them. There was no note that stated we do not change bedding everyday. The Hotel desk clerk stated that the hotel did not change sheets everyday if it is not requested. How were we to know that if there was no card are sign noting such.
Extremely poor housekeeping! Bathrooms were disgusting with dirt and hair on bathroom door and floor. Mold around tub and surround, which was not even cleaned. Housekeeping brought clean towels and left the dirty ones in the room. After reporting that dirty towels were left on the floor, the next day two of the same towels were fold and placed on the shelf.
We leave the room for the day return and our key does not work, we walk back down to the lobby to take care of that issue. The Hot tub was nasty, no towels on the rack to use.
I have always chosen Hilton Garden Inns as my choice of Hotel stay. I have also held several wedding, gala, Christmas parties at the Hilton Garden Inn Anderson SC. I was just not pleased with this stay. We were there to host a wedding and several guest stayed there as well. Many of them were not pleased as well.
This was a very disappointing stay. After the wedding and reception, we just left and drove to San Antonio for the rest of our stay.
Very disappointing regards,
Carolyn Payton Pinson
Try being construction crew for
Independence mo hilton garden inn the gm was the only pleasant person in the building I have had one of my crew members be told that he could not sit in the lobby for he was too ugly to be with the other guests the guy who works for the owner of all of the hiltons suggested my crew come here he is a jackass. Everyday it was something the customers were complaining about the noise (seriously who has heard of construction being quiet)? But there is one thing I have noticed at this hilton you can get away with anything here. I've seen people tail gate in the parking lot barbecue in the parking lot people have kids fighting each other in the parking lot walk on wet tiles in the rooms when they are not dry from renovating smoking weed in rooms leave trash on the construction side like we are the trash crew ( no where else in the halls ). People stealing phones other people luggage tile of construction site so much goes like people don't have any home training and is stopping them because the gm says she doesn't have any say so over this hotel because the owner said so. So if everybody wants to come aND get wild like your life is going to end tomorrow come to the Hilton in independence mo. You get your money back for anything here. Believe me like I said there is nothing I haven't seen in this hotel
Tuff luck.....we are the Hiltons !Delete
I work for the Hilton Garden Inn in independence mo the rooms that were renovated were nice but done sloppy. There was paint all over the doors and walls, in the room I was given. The faucet in the bathroom was not hooked up. The carpet was tucked but shredding. I talked to the gm and she made the construction crew fix everything the way it was supposed to be. I would not recommend this location to anyone. The front desk people are RUDE!!! I had someone at the front desk tell me they didn't know how to get in touch with the construction crew it was not as if the hotel had them on speed dial.ReplyDelete
Independence mo hilton garden inn has bed bugs through out the hotel I am maintenance so I should know. 4th floor room 410 and 420 3rd floor the whole floor 1st floor 117 112 and room 116. Stay st your own risk. The hotel won't do anything until the renoVatican is done and there are people sleeping on those floorsReplyDelete
My husband and I have stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn many times and have always enjoyed our stays. Sadly, the one in Portland, Maine, has been going downhill the past year at an alarming rate.We have always booked executive rooms and enjoyed the perks of the executive lounge. We were there last month for several days for a Dept. of Defense conference-executive room, use of the lounge and no problems. We made the mistake of staying there Thanksgiving evening. We knew that the executive floors were being renovated so did not choose one. We were booked in room 432; and we now know where old bedding and lumpy pillows go to die. The heating/air system clanked the entire night, the toilet made odd gurgling sounds and flushed itself every few minutes. The next morning when we checked out I told the day manager of our concerns. He was extremely polite and professional-promptly removing $50 from our bill. Now we find out that the executive lounge will be closed for the entire winter. This removes any incentive from paying a premium price for an executive room. I don't consider this a cost effective move as I can't think of any reason to stay there now. My husband and I do not consider a robe in the closet and a mini fridge as perks-many mid-range hotels have these as a matter of course. Save your money and stay elsewhere!ReplyDelete
We have stayed at the HGI's in Valdosta, Ga., and Manhattan, Ks. In both locations we found low value for the money. The worst situation was the inadequate sheets and comforters--too small for the beds, difficult to sleep under with another person, and would pull off the bed during the night. Apparently, too cheap to use bedding that actually fits! There are no tubs for bathing in Manhattan, and the shower is difficult to use. The towels are thin and small. Unlike most moderate hotels, HGI charges for Breakfast! Considering that many other brands have better amenities-- and basics--than HGI, and for less money, we will NOT be staying at any HGI again!ReplyDelete

I want to compliment the front desk staff at both the Hilton Garden Inn in Wilkes-Barre,PA and the one in Danbury, CT. I stayed at each this past weekend and felt that the front desk staff at each did a wonderful job of welcoming me, and at Danbury, going one step beyond to help me get dinner at 9:50pm which was just 10 minutes before the restaurant closed. You so often get criticism that I wanted to let you know that you have terrific staff at these two locations.ReplyDelete

Trying to make a reservation for an event in Daytona Beach, was told that corp. does NOT allow the hotel to book in advance. Can only be after the last event, before the event you want to book.... ???? What is this? We have stayed at this hotel every year for last 4years & now a new policy ? this stinks. So A big event with thousands of people come to town & you really hope that you will be able to get a reservation where you want to stay. Sad.
To be honesty i don't see why and how the hilton garden inn located in jonesboro,ar still open and passing inspection with all that mold and mildew built up in they rooms,they laundry is not wash the proper way,the head of household is real rude,they gm got her picks and favorite,that hotel is not clean to me anytime you can check into a room and it's stains and hair on your bedding and they do not change they pull out beds they will not clean a stay over unless you're in the room i just don't understand why have'nt nothing been done about the problem and it urks my nerves how they treat they housekeepers up there them ladies work to hard in them rooms to get treated poorly by they supervisor...i wouldn't recommand no one to stay there or work there cause it's not right i done stayed and worked in a hilton and it was nothing like this oneeeReplyDelete

A relationship with a narcissist can take you locations the place you do not need to be, can make you behave in methods you do not acknowledge your self It could undermine your self-worth and can rob you of the eye you have to give to your self making an attempt to fulfill all their needs.

Buying recliner chairs for sale can be a fun, yet intimidating experience. On one hand you're all excited to get a new, comfortable seat to relax in after a long day's work; but then you look at all of the different kinds that are available and find yourself indecisive on which one is the best for you. It can be quite frustrating trying to choose between cheap, used, fabric, leather, large, small, or riser recliner chairs for sale. In this article we'll briefly discuss all of these different types, the pros and cons, and the most popular models on the market today.
Used Recliner Chairs for Sale
If you're on a budget, then buying a used piece of furniture seems like an ideal way to save some money and get something you want and need for cheap. Used or second hand recliner chairs can be found a number of ways. The hardest part is determining whether or not you're willing to take a risk and possible end up with a not-so-comfortable seat. When you shop in used furniture stores, flea markets, and pawn shops it's not such a big deal since you can at least test it out before you decide to buy it.
You can find plenty of used recliner chairs for sale online as well. Many times you will notice cheap prices and wide selections, but the downside is that you can't sit in them to see how comfortable they really are before making your purchase. This is why sites like craigslist should be used so you can find local sellers in your area, that way you might be able to work something out where you can go over and see it up close. Second hand recliner chairs can save you come money, but you have to be careful that you don't sacrifice too much quality in the process. Sometimes you might just be better off buying a new piece of furniture for cheap, rather than a used one that may only last you a few months.
Leather Recliner Chairs for Sale
If money is no object for you, and you want something that's not only comfortable but also durable and easy to clean, you should consider leather recliner chairs for sale. Leather is one of the most coveted and high-quality materials for just about any type of furniture, and there are several models to choose from as well. Of course you'll want to keep in mind that leather is not cheap, but it can save you money in the long run since it lasts longer than fabric. Check out these popular leather recliner chairs for sale and see if any of them appeal to you:
- Showtime Collection Black Leather Home Theater
- Handy Living Renu Leather Brown Wall Hugger
- Sam Moore Bastille Leather Seat
- Ty Pennington Drake Leather Seat
- Hampshire Bonded Leather Seat
Fabric Recliner Chairs for Sale
Fabric seats are naturally more affordable, which is nice, though they do come with some potential issues such as stains, fraying, and general wear. However, fabric recliner chairs do have some positives as well. Other than their generous, relatively cheap prices, you also have a lot more colors, patterns, and designs to choose from. Plus, you don't stick to fabric in hot weather like you do with leather. If you're considering purchasing any fabric recliner chairs for sale, check these popular models out:
- Acme Furniture Charlotte Microfiber Fabric Seat
- Franklin Hanover Fabric Rocker-Style
- AMBfurniture Overstuffed Light Brown Microfiber Fabric Upholstered Rocker-Style
- Berkline Solace Fabric Seat

Riser recliner chairs are excellent pieces of furniture for disabled persons or those with conditions as listed above. They are specially designed to make it easier for you to get in and out of the seat with adjustable controls and electric lifts, as well as a list of innovative features encompassing the absolute highest level of comfort. Being that they are so intricately designed, riser recliner chairs for sale are not cheap by any means. In most cases you'll be looking at prices between $700 and $1000. Here are some of the best riser-style seats to look for:
- Pride Lift DMR 670 Bed Option Electric Riser
- Golden Technologies Electric 3-Position Riser Lift Easy-Motion
- Lane LiftChair Riser
- StandEasy Riser Lift Seat

Small Recliner Chairs for Sale
Even the most average sized models are often too bulky for some living spaces. If you have a limited amount of space in your living room or you just want something small, cheap, and comfortable, then small recliner chairs are definitely a great option. Below is a list of the best small models to think about:
- Franklin Grace Small 3-Position Seat
- Kirby Small Pillow-Back Leather Seat

President Muhammadu Buhari ordered the arrest of a key member of the panel investigating the mismanagement of public funds meant for the war against Boko Haram after receiving damning reports that he was involved in alleged money laundering and illegal possession of firearms, reliable security and presidency sources have told PREMIUM TIMES.
Despite being his close ally and loyalist, Mr. Buhari okayed the arrest of Mohammed Umar, after perusing reports alleging that the retired Air Force officer ran a blackmailing and extortion cartel, officials said.
Mr. Umar was arrested last week as operatives of the State Security Service (SSS) raided his Abuja home.
Those familiar with the matter said before moving against the retired officer, the Director General of the SSS, Lawal Daura, met with Mr. Buhari where he tabled reports suggesting that the panel member had been busy using the name of the president and other top officials of the administration to intimidate, extort and blackmail individuals and businesses.
"The president became worried and jittery when he was confronted with the way a man he trusted had been behaving," a presidency source said. "So he ordered that he should be picked up while the allegations against him are thoroughly investigated."
Security sources told this newspaper that documents seized from Mr. Umar's residence during a raid on June 19 included classified documents from the president's office, details of government transactions from the Central Bank of Nigeria, and details of bank transactions belonging to the Office of the National Security Adviser.
A document containing details of disbursements made to the Nigerian armed forces and security agencies was also recovered during the raid.
Mr. Umar retired as an air commodore in the Nigerian Air Force in January 2014. While in service, he headed the Air Force's Holding Company as well as the Air Force Properties Limited.
He retired into enormous wealth, officials involved in the investigations said.
Currently, he has six companies, including a private jet company with a fleet size of 10 aircraft, officials said.
Security sources also said he is also one of Abuja's biggest property owners.
"Many top government functionaries live in his houses in Abuja," a security source said. "He also has properties in Dubai and London."
Ally or double agent?
Mr. Umar became a close ally of President Buhari shortly after the 2015 elections.
Armed with a cache of information on Nigeria's security contracts during the immediate past administration of Goodluck Jonathan, he soon became a key figure in the president's investigative committee on arms procurement.
"He suggested most members of the panel," another presidential source told PREMIUM TIMES.
However, investigators said Mr. Umar's swift rise to relevance in President Buhari's administration was beginning to raise concerns regarding whether the new administration failed to conduct a thorough background check on him, or simply ignored the man's past.
Officials said Mr. Umar was one of the first military officers to be arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission just years after the anti-graft agency was established.
He was detained for salary and procurement fraud in the Air Force, but the matter was later handed over to the military for trial, those familiar with the matter said.
Our sources said Mr. Umar was compelled to make refunds, and the matter was brushed aside allowing the man to return to the force.
Multiple officials told PREMIUM TIMES that Mr. Umar's stupendous wealth has always confounded several of his colleagues.
"As far back as 20 years ago, when his annual salary couldn't afford a car, Mr. Umar had a private jet," one source said.
Married to the daughter of a former Nigerian petroleum minister, Rilwan Lukman, Mr. Umar ran local and international businesses while he served in the Nigerian Air Force, one source said.

How I'm Making Dinner Less Stressful
Rob and I love going out and trying new restaurants on the weekends, but during the week we almost always eat at home. To be honest, we're both kind of homebodies and love being in our place together at night. It's so relaxing after a busy work day, don't you think? Eating at home is usually the healthier choice. I can make sure my ingredients are healthy and organic, I can pick my cooking technique (no frying over here), and I can season our food with normal amounts of salt and oil, something that restaurants don't typically care about.
I also love to cook! I know I've mentioned it before, but for anyone who's new around here, I did a quick semester of culinary school after I graduated. It's always been something I've enjoyed doing and is really relaxing for me! There's nothing like taking your day's frustration out on a pile of veggies, right?! Hopefully I'm not the only one who feels this way! But, as much as I love to cook, the whole figuring out what to cook, and actually going to the grocery is not something I look forward to. Occasionally, I'll get ahead and meal plan on a Sunday, but more often than not, I find myself sitting at my desk at 4pm on Monday evening, frantically searching Pinterest for an exciting recipe that doesn't require a million ingredients. Ugh, it makes me tired and stressed just thinking about it.
Last week, we did something different. No, we didn't go out or order takeout, instead we tried out Green Chef! Green Chef is a food delivery company that drops off a box of recipes and all the ingredients you need to make meals at home. I know, there's a bunch of different companies out there like this one, and we've tried a few, but this one has been my favorite by far. First off, all of their ingredients are organic! I've made a point to buy more organic produce and foods this year in my attempt to nourish my body with really good, clean stuff, and with Green Chef, it's done for me. Second, and I think one of their best features, is the ability to select a meal plan that best suits your lifestyle. They have omnivore, carnivore, gluten-free, vegan, paleo and vegetarian—there's something for everyone! If you have dietary restrictions or are trying to eat a specific way, this makes it a cinch! Even if you don't have a specific dietary need, it's fun to try out different options every once and a while. I'm dying to try the gluten-free option since I don't eat much gluten to begin with.
Rob and I tried the omnivore plan which was perfect for us. Two of our three meals had meat, and one was vegetarian, which was a perfect mix! Here's what we ate: Italian meatballs and orzo (the small square image below), jerk chicken tostadas (ate them and then realized I didn't snap a pic!), and our vegetarian dish, sumac veggie flatbreads. The last dish was still super filling, which is always Rob's concern with vegetarian dishes, and quite possibly my favorite meal of them all! You can see it in the pictures—drool-worthy, right?!
I love that I still get to do the cooking, but don't have to worry about the parts, like shopping or meal-planning that I don't like. The best part is that Rob and I get to spend more time together each night because there's no extra trips to the grocery store. The whole night is just so much more enjoyable and less stressful! We get to enjoy a delicious, healthy meal together and simply relax. Not a bad way to end a crazy work day, right?!
I'll definitely be using Green Chef again in the next few weeks. Both Rob and I have been super busy with work, and if there's any areas where I can simplify my life, I'm all about it. Knowing that we're still making a healthy choice is a huge perk for me and makes Green Chef a no-brainer.
Have you tried Green Chef before—what'd you think? What's your most favorite (or least favorite) part about cooking? If you're ready to try Green Chef, make sure to use this link to get $50 off your order—that's like almost free guys!!
P.S. Any link throughout the post will get you the deal!
BTW, 7 healthy changes you can actually make this year, and how I stay fit & healthy.
Thanks to Green Chef, a brand I love and trust, for sponsoring this post! All opinions are my own. Partnerships like this make The Fox & She possible!
