Jurys Inn Galway
Quay Street, Galway
0.0 mi from
calm / kindness
The location was excellent. The bed was to small.
The location is great, right in the city center and only 15 minute walk to the beach and it is a very clean and comfortable. Stayed here be fore and would stay here again the next time I stay in Galway.
This was a lovely hotel in a great location. The staff was great & rooms were very clean & comfortable. We loved that you could walk to everything-restaurants & shops in one direction & just over the bridge the Salthill Promenade for a beautiful walk. We arrived on the weekend & it's kind of a party town on Fri & Sat. We loved it but when return I think we'll come Sunday thru Thursday.
When we checked in we did not get the room we had requested. The check in agent was not willing to change our room. We had to get the manager to help us. He made the changes that were needed and we were very satisfied. After that the manager checked with us each day to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. At the end of our 3 day stay the manager even got our car out of the garage. The garage that the hotel uses is just awful. very tight corners, and hard for out of town guests to maneuver. They should find another garage to use.
The front desk staff were very helpful. We arrived later than we had planned and were concerned about being on time for a scheduled concert. We were checked in quickly and given easy directions for where we needed to be. The next day when we were checking out and inquired how long our parking voucher would be effective, Jan very helpfully suggested we wait to purchase it so that we could explore More of Galway. He stored our luggage for us and gave us great suggestions of where to go and what to see. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The rooms were very warm, even with windows open.
location room was very noisy, no breakfast included, had to pay for carpark, not good value for money
Nothing Room, Bathroom facilities, lack of heating
The hotel is well located, walking distance to many shops and restaurants. The staff is very kind and the rooms are clean and affordable. no complaints
The hotel is wonderfully located very close to the center of Galway and all activities. while being a 1-10 min walk from anything you could want, its also quiet. The staff was very nice, helpful and friendly. The beds were fairly uncomfortable, the amenities are not terrible new, but are current enough to satisfy and certainly high quality in galway.
convenience, cleanliness and efficiency. perfect location, great parking. Stayed here several times and cannot find any fault to report
Staff very friendly, professional and prompt in accommodating requests. Do Not Disturb sign and. Make Up Room sign practically identical. If one grabs Do Not Disturb sign at night one can easily grab wrong sign (as I did) and be awakened early by the maid thinking I wanted my room cleaned. Very aggravating!!
it was very central to everything staff were brillant cannot fault it for a stag weekend I konow its the same in most hotels but breakfast was finished at 9 we were hardly in the bed
great value excellant service really enjoyed stay
my family and i love the eyre square hotel for its convenience friendlieness and comfort everything perfect
it's location was very convenient it did not have it's own car park
location and friendly staff
Ideal location. Very comfortable bed.
I have been before found it a good hotel
very easy to the town, right there. nice people, had a laugh or two. pubs are good, staff are friendly
Beautiful décor, excellent location, fantastic breakfast. Close to parking as well. Walls are a bit thin, so light sleepers beware.
The receptionist on duty was particularly friendly More variety at breakfast would be nice
The staff were lovely. Room clean and comfortale On our first night we were in a room facing the main street. The noise was extremely bad and we got little or no sleep. We contacted the receptionist who advised that she woud relocate us to a quieter room the following morning which she did. That was perfect!
First, after some confusion (our problem) finding the car park, the staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating. The hotel itself was a wonderful surprise, a bit old world luxury, with lots of dark woods, polished brass, and oriental carpets. Room had all you would expect and more. Great breakfast as well.
location, free parking cleanliness of room
Staff was wonderful and welcoming..room was comfortable..loved having a sofa..general feel of hotel was great..best location to train, bus and restaurants Old fashioned blow dryer
Staff and the attention to details, nothing escapes. Always on top of their game. Park House knows the definition of hospitality.
Walked the area, toured
Rooms spacious and very comfortable. Nothing
Service and location Somethings need a renovation (doors, bath tube, windows...)
Location was great and all staff were very helpful For the price the full Irish breakfast was very basic.
Friendly staff, welcoming atmoshere, great location comfortable rooms. Took a while to work out how to turn off the air conditioning which was making the room cold.
The professionalism and friendliness of the staff at all levels, from management through to porterage
The staff goes out of their way to make your stay perfect. Nothing
Lovely hotel and excellent location room a bit stuffy
The comfort of the room was excellent. It was also very quiet - no traffic noise at all.
great location and an outstanding restaurant.service second to none.rooms a bit small but its hard to fault this hotel.
I really enjoyed no
this is one of the best hotels i have stayed in i asked that the towel heater be looked at as it was not working and they told me it would be looked at and never was so that was dissapointing.
It was very comfortable, luxurious and the food especially the breakfast was lovely.
The room was beautiful. very nicely decorated.
Great hotel,excellent staff, central location,and a really nice Christmas atmosphere created in the hotel.We have been to Germany for the last three years at this time and I would have to say that the House Hotel surpassed any the hotels in Germany that we stayed in for both value and ambience. In one word ,none.
The lobby/seating areas were very comfortable and relaxing. Staff excellent. Rooms a little small
Clean, smart, friendly ... good customer service and nothing to grumble about or spoil relaxation. Nicely fitted out Parking arrangements are a bit of a drag
On saturday night they downgraded me to a worse room
The location is fantastic really central. The staff I dealt with were excellent receptionist and Porter.
The hotel's location is ideal. The staff were helpful and friendly. There was no parking facilities on the grounds of the hotel, we were to use the nearest public car park. Our room was not ready on arrival, the reception rest rooms were overdue a clean. As this used to be the Great Southern Hotel, I was keen to stay here but disappointed as not up to the standard as the Great Southern Hotel. Breakfast the following morning was disappointing. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the hotel is situated right in the centre of town.
good location no water in the room which i would expect 4* to have and then charged 8 euro for 3 small bottles , breakfast very basic and parking again there was a charge
Outdoor hot tub
staff and restaurant room pokey, paint falling off ceiling, no air conditioning, fridge broken, poor standard for its star rating
THe hotel was fabulous and the room was very comfortable
complimentary glass of champagne and valet parking
The Location The Bar The rooms The style The staff was helpful enough, but not the most welcoming front desk I have ever come across. The breakfast room is a bit like a cave.
extremely comfortable
the location is very good
Beautiful hotel with spacious and elegant rooms at the center and heart of Galway, only a 1 minute walk to the train station and a 3 minute walk to the Latin quarter. The hotel is in a beautiful stone turn of the century building that has been updated with all modern amenities. The rooms make you feel like you're staying in a palace.
Excellent value- we got a special deal for 26euro for 2 people including breakfast! A hostel would have been more expensive. We are still wondering if it was a mistake! The decor is looking a little tired for a 4 star.
Beautiful room and location also ideal for city centre
the place was really clean, welcoming and the comfort was great. great bar food as well. the service in the bar was slow, (maybe just a once off though)
breakfast room too crowded at times
Very central location, free parking 24 hours, some of the hotel staff (Jennifer) Rooms did not have all the facilities I expected (fridge, mini-bar...), not very nice toilet, tea-pot dirty with limescale, some staff were not friendly... I think the fare is too high for an average hotel
Location Breakfast - some items under cooked and not very nice. Directions not very good - it would be helpful if the roundabouts were named for those coming from different directions.
The location
5 mins from centre, view from room of car park, restaurant closed, steam room not working.
between oil tanks and scrap heep
Staff with very poor english
There were 3 twin beds! Enough room for all of us! And a great staff.
Stayed here for one night. Hotel and staff are nice but no different to your average hotel we paid E200 and felt it was far too expensiv for a view of a wall. Towels in the bathroom were stained with dirt. Parking cost e8 for the night and someone had tried to steal my car and there is no CCTV
I enjoyed the room size and the overall price of our stay. No complaints
Good location, friendly staff Difficulty accessing Hotel by car on first visit, (Parking) due to one way system and traffic volume.
Good location, friendly and helpful staff (including the very nice chambermaids)
The comfort and beautiful heat of the hotel.
2 mins from erye square, room service, value for money would love to have stayed longer
Great location at a reasonable rate. Friendly staff. Slightly outdated decor
Location, large room, breakfast service. Heating and hot water service insufficient
Staff were very nice
the staff were very nice,food was lovely and well presented the description of the nightclub said that some rooms may experience some noise but trying to sleep on the friday didnt happen as we were obviusly directly above the club where there was a trance gig on which we were never told about, also trying to get back into the hotel after hours with gangs of people standing around would put you off
Stayed there for 1 night. Great location and very reasonable price. Staff friendly and helpfull. Very good breakfast. All was great except that there was no parking so if you want to stay at Victoria Hotel you have to pay additional 8 euro per day for Hynes Yard car park located 5 min walking distance from the hotel. Slightly outdated decor.
Great location, excellent staff. The bar was open late and I enjoyed visiting with the hotel's other guests. And the bartender--who was also working the desk--was a true professional and one of the most memorable people I met in Ireland.
Dominic the owner was simply fantastic went out of his way to help me a number of times The noise outside - I stayed on a Friday night and the hotel overlooks a busy night life scene - was very noisy but I imagine this would be fine on a weekday night
Lovely small hotel , i really like the decor and how tastefully some of the original features were restored, room was lovely, bed and bed linen luxurious and very comfortable, staff very friendly. i thought the room was a bit small. and some of the services like iron & ironing board & hair dryer werent in room as described, also no wardrobe for storing clothes,
We were not allowed to stay because we arrived at 1045-11pm...they had no one to open the door and forced us to book elsewhere
beautiful, stylish, brand new b&b in the heart of galway city center. we loved it. Being so central some rooms might be noisy because of the pubs on the street. Separate hot and cold water.
Loved the location. It´s the perfect experience for a weekend break in Galway.
great spot,very close to everything
There was little to no water pressure in the shower head even though they had expensive rain shower heads. It was a slow drip to take a shower. The room smells musty because it's OLD. We had 3 beds in our room, 2 of which were not cleaned because their covers were dusty - probably from people using the larger king bed and not the 2 smaller twin beds in the room. The mattresses were springy and soft - like sleeping on a trampoline. The hot water pot was full of white and black calcium build up that was never cleaned. The only good thing was the renovated bathroom with white tiles and a new toilet. There wasn't even free parking like my booking suggested. It was $10 for over night parking at a garage nearby.
The location was great for shopping and sightseeing in the city Reception area - it is quite small and needs updating
friendly staff not quite finished re-furbishment and grouting stuck to bottom of the bath
Loved the accommodations and the staff.
The hotel was located very close to downtown, with tons of restaurants and bars at our doorstep. Our room (a triple) was huge, with a very nice, large bathroom and even a sort of living room. Everything seemed clean. Due to its location downtown, it was rather noisy at night from the bar goers. However, it being close to downtown was a plus, so it was a trade off. Also, since the hotel took over the neighboring building, it was a bit of a trek to get to our room. Breakfast wasn't anything to write home about, but I expect that from a continental breakfast
Newly redecorated hotel, large room, very clean, exceptionally helpful staff Room facing onto Eyre Square can be very noisy
The hotel is in a great location in Eyre Square. Other than that, I could not find anything else I liked about this hotel. The hotel is dated and in need of refurbishment. No mini bar in room. There was a kettle, but no teacups or any kind of supplies of tea or coffee?? I asked for breakfast to be delivered to my room, but was informed, the hotel does not do this? Instead I was told to go to the dining room and carry back breakfast. The buffet on display was probably the worst I have seen during many years of travel. The hot dishes consisted of a few hard boiled eggs in a basket?? The staff were distant and unfriendly.
staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel's location was ideal for our stay could do with a good irish breakfast instead of the continental one
good location. Reception employees very nice
Someone clearly put a lot of money into giving the hotel a face lift in the recent past. It looks up to date. Our room had three single beds in it that were crammed into the space you'd normally find a single queen bed. The light above the bathroom sink had come out of the wall and was flickering because of a bad connection. Overall the hotel seemed a bit dirty; just small impressions like the stainless steel elevators being covered in finger prints.
Recently renovated, nice quiet room
large room, great california king, staff friendliness, proximity to square and main entertainment streets. breakfast was mediocre. breakfast room had strong smell of stale bar beer and body odor. fruit flies present.
The location was excellent, great access to Galway city center, shops, restaurants and shopping. None
The location on Eyre square is the main attraction to this hotel. We were mislead about parking.The rate isn't 50% off as we were told during check-in; There is only a $10 daily rate. The room was sub-par:lack of hot pot for coffee, unclean bathroom, only two(very thin)pillows.Difficult door to open. Wi-Fi very spotty.
Friendly, clean, comfortable, affordable. An excellent place. Extra facilities very good including free WiFi and printing facilities which many top hotels do not yet have. None that I can think of!
Staff was very accommodating and friendly. Great breakfast! Great location and there is a great pub with music right down the road.
spacious and warm room, delicious breakfast, very reasonable price. nothing
Staff was very friendly...breakfast was wonderful! None
Very friendly kitchen staff. Private bathroom. Computer with free Internet for guests. Noisy
Its was just what was needed! And the breakfast was amazing! By far superior to many expensive hotels! None
Room was bright, well laid out, good tv and channel selection, tea and coffee making facilities were appreciated in the cold weather! Breakfast was at 8am, which is quite late. Would of liked the option of having it earlier as I had to be at a course by 8am
Excellent staff, very friendly.
Exactly what I wanted! Clean, good breakfast, fast wifi, quiet part of town. Perfect! Nothing at all - an excellent two nights at a friendy place
Excellent service georgeous rooms and very near city centre perfect
Everyone was super nice and helpful. Great location with easy access to local and private buses. We're very helpful is all aspects. Pub downstairs was a delight. Hotel employee were great! Great atmosphere!
Location! Close to everything in the town center. Easy access to area attractions. We stayed at MUCH nicer places that served breakfast included for the same price. With larger room/ accommodations. Tea pot was filthy inside. Very noisy in rooms from street.
Staying above an Irish pub made our trip! It's a very 'neighborhood' pub, fun, but without obnoxious students. Live music every night. The room is clean and comfortable. Good view of Eyre Square, and food water pressure in the shower. Make sure you get your complimentary coffee refills with breakfast if you want them. For guests only, but not all of the bartenders know this!

GroupM/Spotify reveal $220m mobile music streaming ad opportunity
Group M and Spotify plan to tap into streaming media consumption, in particular music, to generate new ad revenue.
A multi-year data and research partnership between Group M parent WPP and spotify to study streaming media consumption has found that more than 60% of streaming activity takes place via a mobile device.
Furthermore, the report found that today, streamers make up almost 50% of the online population and that it is time to view streaming as the norm rather than the niche - as an integral piece of a media plan rather than an afterthought.
Furthermore, and of interest to advertisers, that streaming activity can be linked to "moods and moments" and, in the next few years, ads can be targeted at listeners based on whether they are listening to music at the gym, in the kitchen cooking dinner or in the shower. For example, a workout playlist or stream of upbeat music throughout the week around the same time could indicate that the person is out for a run or on a cardio machine, thus prompting different ad messages.
The report, 'Streaming State of Mind', reveals 53% of mobile music streamers said they listen to music while doing housework, 42% while cooking, 30% while showering, and 20% while running errands.
Targeting ads in such a way will generate $220 million in new ad revenue in the seven markets studied (U.S., U.K., Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and Sweden), says the report.

Analysis of a restorative approach towards crime
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
Can a restorative approach towards crime achieve fairness and justice for both victims and offenders, as advocated by its proponents? Support your argument by drawing upon the relevant theoretical perspectives and the findings of evaluative research.
Theories of justice, when it comes to criminal behaviour, encompass a wide range of issues including social, political and legal. Furthermore, there are multiple different theories relating to the way in which perpetrators of crime should be treated, particularly with regards to ensuring fairness and equality for all involved, including victims. One of the main approaches taken is that of restorative justice and the focus of this analysis is on whether or not restorative justice can ever be used in a way that achieves complete fairness and justice, for both sides, i.e. the victims and the offenders. During this analysis, consideration will be given to what exactly is meant by restorative justice and how it has developed, the limitations associated with restorative justice, and how it interacts with legal justice, before going on to consider the theoretical perspectives and practical examples of restorative justice, in a bid to determine whether or not this type of justice can ever fully result in a fair situation for all involved in the system.
Broadly speaking, restorative justice is an approach taken which encompasses the thoughts and needs of the parties involved in the justice system, in an active manner. This not only refers to the victims and the offenders, but also to the community at large, all of whom are encouraged to be involved in determining approaches to tackling certain criminal problems. The theory also recognises that these crimes need to be dealt with in a social context and that they need to look more towards preventing crime, rather than necessarily simply punishing those who commit crime. It is also thought to be a flexible approach which recognises the fact that society changes, on a day-to-day basis, and justice must also therefore change to reflect this fact. Essentially, restorative justice involves drawing in all parties in an active decision-making process as to how to deal with certain criminal activity, with a view to preventing it in the future.
Despite this seemingly soft approach to justice, the primary aim of restorative justice is to ensure that the victims' needs are fully attended to where material loss and financial loss are concerned, but also regarding emotional and social issues. This approach may also extend to those who are close to the victim such as relatives. A further objective of restorative justice is to consider the community, as a whole, and how the individual offenders can be reintegrated into society, in a way that is beneficial to the entire community. This is an important part of justice, as criminal activity does not only impact on the immediate victim, but also on the whole community. Therefore, integrating these offenders back into the community in a useful manner to the community underlines this approach when dealing with criminal activity.
When dealing with the offender, specifically, the aim of restorative justice is to encourage the offender to take some form of responsibility for their actions and to enable them to reintegrate themselves, in a positive way. On a more long-term approach, this will involve establishing a community culture which supports rehabilitation and also deals with preventing crime, in the long term.
There are also aims relating to the way in which justice is administered, ensuring that there is a lack of unnecessary cost or delay. It can be seen that restorative justice, as a general approach, is already seen as underlining the criminal justice system. When looking at the new Crime and Disorder Act 2008, the focus is more on prevention of offending, rather than on the holistic approach encouraged by restorative justice; nonetheless, restorative justice is still deemed to be very current by academics and those involved in the practical reality of administering criminal justice.
Restorative justice is based on a number of assumptions which need to be borne in mind when ascertaining, in reality, how effective restorative justice is likely to be. One of the fundamental assumptions is that crime is fundamentally linked to the social context and social issues and that it is therefore necessary for the community, as a whole, to take a degree of responsibility when administering justice. It is also assumed that it is simply not possible for the system to deal with a criminal offence, without involving the individuals who have been directly impacted such as the victims and the offenders, directly. Fundamentally, however, restorative justice assumes that a combination of objectives must be followed and that not one overriding objective should ever take precedence.
Given the notion that restorative justice is seen to be an all-encompassing process for dealing with criminal activity, both in terms of preventing crime as well as dealing with the aftermath of crime, when it does occur, it is necessary to consider whether its limitations may impact on the effectiveness of restorative justice and also how restorative justice links with legal justice. A key difficulty that has been raised in relation to restorative justice is that it does not always work together with the criminal justice system that exists within the UK. The restorative justice approach is very much a negotiation based approach, and this does not always sit well with what is perceived to be a tough criminal justice system.
It has been recognised by Messmer & Otto (1992) that by giving too much power to the judicial agencies, which is a criticism of the current criminal justice system, it is simply impractical to expect restorative justice ever to prevail. Indeed, there has been a discussion as to whether or not the system relating to restorative justice could, in fact, exist as a completely separate system to the criminal justice system. Despite this argument, and the fact that such a large amount of power is devolved to the individuals through a restorative justice system, it is still maintained, in this case, that restorative justice should form a part of the criminal legal justice system (Marshall, 1997). It has been argued by these theorists that a process of whole justice should be followed and that they should each reinforce each other, in order to create a single system which is co-operative in nature and is mutually beneficial to all involved. This is particularly important to recognise because restorative justice requires a great deal of co-operation and this is also one of the fundamental limitations to restorative justice as, without co-operation, it is likely to fail, either entirely or in part. Formal legal justice systems may have to be relied upon in situations when restorative justice simply does not work, but there is a failing in terms of achieving a mutually acceptable scenario, indicating that neither one system can fully replace the other and both need to work together. It is relatively easy to see that restorative practices are likely to be more accessible by the various parties; for example, victims are going to be more inclined to deal with issues through restorative practices than they would be to initiate formal legal proceedings, due to fear of the formality of the legal system.
A further limitation exists in that the community is central to restorative justice practices and therefore a strong community needs to exist. Increasingly, the central notion of a community has diminished, in recent years, and therefore relying fully on the community may be seen as a growing limitation of this system. In order for the community to be such a formative part of this justice process, much background work needs to be undertaken, including education and training of community members to reduce the social inequalities that are often seen between communities and within individual communities.
An inherent inequality exists within society and this can be magnified when flexible systems such as restorative justice are put in place, with those who fully understand the workings of the system being able to manipulate it to their advantage more than others. These limitations will all add to the inability of the system to create fairness and equality, throughout.
In order to consider the limitations, raised above, and also the operation of the system of restorative justice, certain practical examples of how this system has been developed will be looked at.
When looking at the practical examples and the way in which restorative justice has operated, on a practical level, it is helpful to consider the barest of relationships that exist within the wider remit of restorative justice. Arguably, one of the most critical relationships is that which exists between the victim and offender. Currently, there are multiple systems in place that encourage the victim and offender to meet and to make direct steps towards repairing the damage that has been done by the offenders. This is achieved both through the use of regular meetings, but also through fines that are often imposed and that need to be paid directly to the victim. From a more restorative point of view, it is the meetings that are central, as these give the offenders an opportunity to face the reality of what was actually being done. These types of approaches can be seen as being useful, in certain circumstances, although it does naturally depend on the attitudes of the parties involved. In particular, victims can feel that they have taken greater control of the situation and can also feel that they have impacted on improving the position of the offender, so that it does not occur in the future. Social benefits associated with this type of activity include the ability to deal with each individual situation, rather than merely stereotyping groups of offenders or victims. Also, the community is better served because there is a greater chance of a lack of re-offending from offenders who have been through these types of activities (Restorative Justice Consortium, 2007).
There is also an important relationship to be developed between the victim and the community, which is more commonly associated with the victim's own peer group and acquaintances, rather than necessarily support that is generically offered by the community. Victim support has been established to fill this gap and there are other supplementary services such as ChildLine which deal with specific types of victims. However, these bodies have not been fully involved in the relationship between the victim and the offender and without this holistic link the bodies cannot all operate as one.
Of particular importance in this discussion is the relationship between the offender and the community. One of the underlying objectives of restorative justice is that of reintegrating offenders into the community, in a way that makes them functioning individuals, in the future. With this in mind, the success of restorative justice is likely to be heavily focused on how the community deals with offenders. Individual communities deal with these issues, on a regional basis, as well as there being some overall systems that are seen on a national basis. For example, typical projects operate in a way that assist with gaining a job or better educational qualifications, as well as tackling issues relating to drugs and alcohol, where appropriate. Although some of the systems are highly effective, on the whole, they are unsystematic in their application and this has severely hampered the impact and effectiveness of restorative justice as a national option.
However, there are barriers associated with these types of community initiatives, primarily linked to the fact that some communities have received negative experiences when undertaking these types of approaches. Much of the research, in this area, has focused on youth offending and, whilst these individual offenders are generally seen to be those who are most susceptible to change and are most likely to be successfully reintegrated, there is a need to extend this to all "if it is to be entirely successful in the context of restorative justiceâ€, (Utting, 1996). On the whole, however, the role of the community is very piecemeal and there is a lack of a national mission to ensure that restorative justice is effectively implemented.
Unsurprisingly, a great deal of research has been undertaken into the theory of restorative justice and the likelihood of this type of process achieving genuine equality and fairness. One of the first researchers to look into this type of justice was Howard Zehr (1985), and he developed this research further, in 1990. He actually considered the advantage of this approach to be an entirely separate theory to the current legal justice. The focus, in this initial analysis, was on the relationship between the offender and victim, thus suggesting that dealing with the relationship was central to the underlying operation of restorative justice. This theory was then extended by Zehr & Mika (1998), exploring the important role of the community in terms of influencing both victims and offenders. It was the fundamental issue of involving the community that ensured that restorative justice gained the level of support that it has, in recent years (Harding, 1992).
Over the years, however, the focus has generally shifted back towards focusing on the relationship between the victim and the offender, but in the wider context of the community and the social setting. Several theories consider whether or not restorative justice, as it has developed, can be brought in alongside the traditional theories of justice. It should also be noted that restorative justice has extended itself into the civil legal system, primarily due to its high reliance on mediation style processes (Christie, 1977).
Increasingly, restorative justice is looked at with the public interest in mind and, although this was not recognised until the mid-1990s, in the UK, it was something that was being developed at a rapid pace in the US, from the 1980s and in Japan, through the concept of forgiveness (Hayley, 1988).
When considering the various issues raised on how restorative justice has developed and the underlying theories behind what makes this type of system of justice successful, several factors became evident. Although there are clear benefits to be gained through the use of a restorative justice system, particularly where it is used alongside the more formal justice system, there are several limitations and assumptions which may ultimately mean that this type of system cannot ever be truly fair and equal to all parties involved.
It concluded that one of the main issues associated with this restorative justice system is the heavy reliance placed on the community. The current social contact does not, on the whole, indicate a strong community presence, in all areas of the UK. Moreover, where there is a community present, there is also likely to be inequality inherent in the community, which can create difficulties when it comes to enforcing restorative justice systems.
With this in mind, therefore, it is concluded that it is clearly possible for restorative justice to provide a fair and equal system but the underlying conditions necessary for this do not currently exist; therefore, inequality and unfairness are likely to exist within a restorative justice system, in the UK.

On January 8th, the singer performed for her musical '200 Pound Beauty' at the Chungmu Art Hall, where she fainted and was rushed to an emergency room at a nearby hospital. By the 11th, Bada's condition was still weak, and so she was transferred to a bigger hospital in Kangnam.
All of her schedules have been cancelled in order for her to rest up and recover.
A representative from her company reported that she was very sorry for halting her musical performances, and that she wanted to apologize to the staff, actors, and audience members.
In the meantime, it's been reported that musical actress Jeon Hye Sun will be subbing for Bada in '200 Pound Beauty'.
Fans are hoping for Bada's speedy recovery.

Scott Karp is the most consistently readable writers in the media-meets-tech space.If you don't follow his blog, start now. His piece today is just one example: he looks at whether the rise of the algorithm will make human editors obsolete
Popurls is a website that will keep an eye on all those social news aggregators, just so you don't have to, writes Jack Schofield.
New media: Chris Anderson's new book of his Wired article and blog, The Long Tail, argues persuasively that when it comes to our consumption of digital media we are indeed individuals. In fact, unbeknownst to those of us who grew up in the mass-media age of broadcasting, we were actually individuals all along. Anthony Lilley reports.
First steal someone else's work, then charge others to read it... As pure content sites collapse, David Rowan looks at the rise of news aggregators.

One of our favorite things to do during the holiday season is watch holiday movies at home. Bundled up, sipping on hot chocolate and getting the house smelling like freshly popped popcorn.
Last week, we got to invite some friends over for a viewing party of a funny holiday movie, Jingle All The Way 2, as it finally came out with its Blu-ray/DVD copy.
We started out with activities all related to the movie and the holiday. The kids worked on their Jingle All the Way 2 activity sheets and colored wooden Christmas ornaments.
After the doing their worksheets, kids got their croissants, found their spot on the couch and was ready for the movie donning their Santa hats. But first, a group pic!
The movie was funny with two dads trying to outdo each other, competing over who's the better dad. But in the end, they realized they don't really need to compete and ended spending Christmas together.
Our guests got to take home some fun swag including star-shaped cookie cutters, mugs, cute mustache straw and more. I look forward to hosting another viewing party. And next time, I need to make sure I remember to pop the popcorn, yes I forgot. LOL.
To know more about the movie & win a blu-ray copy of Jingle All the Way 2, check here to join our giveaway.
disclosure: we were provided with a party package and a copy of the movie.

One of the worst movies I have seen this year and I have seen many.
Riddled with technical errors, a space shuttle ditches beneath the
surface of the ocean and the crew must somehow survive and get out.
Shuttle has a submarine depth gage! Do submarines have airplane altimeters? Interior doors all lock one way only. I guess the shuttles are designed this way so crew can lock themselves in for some "private time" from sexual encounters like hiding the salami to just a good old session of pouting and crying.
Love triangle ensues aboard the shuttle. God help us. Too much time spent on social relations in the abyss instead of survival. Can't they find enough astronauts on the program that just wanna fly the mission and leave their love interests on earth? Heroin goes up with long bangs dangling by face, probably got caught in the shuttle's transmission. No wonder they ditch.
This movie was so bad I had to watch the whole thing to see how retarded it could get with this cast of basic nobodies. Take a peek but remember you'll never get that time back in your life. Time not well wasted.

2014 was a good year for pharmaceutical innovation – the best, in fact, since the industry's all-time record of 1996. FDA approved a total of 44 drugs – 39 by CDER, and 5 by CBER (Exhibit 1). As usual, this total excludes imaging agents (i.e., Lumason and Neuraceq), and only includes the biological drugs from CBER that are of rDNA origin.
AstraZeneca AstraZeneca received the most approvals (4), which may have contributed to Pfizer Pfizer's interest. But other companies that have been hard hit by the innovation drought scored successes as well. AbbVie AbbVie, that had not produced an NME since 2004, made a remarkable return with Vieki...

This was a horrible accident and the aftermath is starting to make the news. Do you think it's necessary to get concert insurance for fans to be taken out in the Midwest for outdoor concerts. How as band can this tragedy be foreseen, usually road crews are hired by the management or contracted out locally and it would seem to me a hard situation to stay on top of. It's a sad affair all the same and hopefully will be resolved with all due process and speed.
No announcement yet.
The Sugarland disaster, should we have insurance for concerts.

Here's the quote I found interesting from that story:
"The incident at issue in this litigation resulted from a gust of wind of unprecedented intensity, which caused a structure that may have been improperly designed, maintained andor inspected to fail. As such, this was a true accident or Act of God," the response states."
So is an "improperly designed, maintained andor inspected [structure]" an Act of God or accident? Granted, it said MAY have been improperly designed, but still...
This case is going to go on for a long time, I think. Sugarland will say they didn't need to cancel the concert because they believed the stage structure could withstand the weather. The stage people will say it was not capable of withstanding weather of that intensity, and Sugarland should have canceled the concert. Ultimately, none of it will bring back the people who died, but hopefully the fallout will prevent this from happening in the future._____________________________________________

Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you.
There's the key phrase right there.
A few years back I was hired as an expert witness in a case where metal panels came off buildings in downtown Houston during a hurricane and caused some injuries and damage. The injured parties blamed the building owner who blamed the panels which were certified for a certain wind speed, the panel manufacturer blamed the installer, the installer said the panels were installed to spec and either the materials must have been defective or the windspeed exceeded the rating in which case it was an act of God.
The whole case turned on what the speed of the wind gusts were, and how sustained they were.
There was no recording of wind speeds at the building location, only at various locations around Houston (airport, TV station, etc) all fairly close to the rated wind speed for the panels. Downtown Houston, as you might guess, is a "concrete canyon" and estimating windspeed in the canyons is really complex even if you had a complete record of windspeeds from fairly nearby.
That was my job, to estimate the peak gusts and give a 95% confidence interval around the predicted value. And of course the "other side" had their own expert too.
This case will come down to the same, I think. If the wind speed was far above anything the various contractors could reasonably have expected and they did their job in the usual, accepted fashioned, I'd say they're off the hook. Otherwise, ipso facto they are negligent since it clearly did come apart and cause great harm.

Incrementally Exploring Large-scale Multidimensional Data
Jaemin Jo, Wonjae Kim, Seunghoon Yoo, Bohyoung Kim, and Jinwook Seo / 2017
The advance in distributed computing technologies opens up new possibilities of data exploration even for datasets with a few billion entries. In this paper, we present SwiftTuna, an interactive system that brings in modern cluster computing technologies (i.e., in-memory computing) to InfoVis, allowing rapid and incremental exploration of large-scale multidimensional data without building precomputed data structures (e.g., data cubes). Our performance evaluation demonstrates that SwiftTuna enables data exploration of a real-world dataset with four billion records while preserving the latency between incremental responses within a few seconds.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © 2008 The McGraw-Hill Companies, All Rights Reserved Chapter 7 Storing Organizational Information - Databases
7-2 Learning Outcomes 7.1 Define the fundamental concepts of the relational database model 7.2 Evaluate the advantages of the relational database model 7.3 Compare relational integrity constraints and business-critical integrity constraints
7-3 Learning Outcomes 7.4Describe the benefits of a data driven Web site 7.5 Describe the two primary methods for integrating information across multiple databases
7-4 Relational Database Fundamentals Information is everywhere in an organization Information is stored in databases –Database – maintains information about various types of objects (inventory), events (transactions), people (employees), and places (warehouses)
7-5 What is the purpose of a database? Spreadsheet and database keep track of things Spreadsheets –Keep lists of single concept Databases –Keep lists that involve multiple themes
7-6 Database Models Database models include: –Hierarchical database model – information is organized into a tree-like structure (using parent/child relationships) in such a way that it cannot have too many relationships –Network database model – a flexible way of representing objects and their relationships; each record may have multiple parents –Relational database model – stores information in the form of logically related two-dimensional tables
7-7 Hierarchical database model A method for storing data in a database that looks like a family tree with one root and a number of branches or subdivisions. Instrumental Music X
7-8 Network database model A database design for storing information by linking all records that are related with a list of pointers.
7-9 Relational database model A design used in database systems in which relationships are created between one or more tables based on the idea that each pair of tables has a field in common.
7-10 Relational Databases In the rest of this course we only focus of Relational Databases since they are far more applicable to businesses.
7-11 Entities and Attributes Entity – a person, place, thing, transaction, or event about which information is stored –The rows in each table contain the entities Attributes (fields, columns) – characteristics or properties of an entity class –The columns in each table contain the attributes
7-12 Keys and Relationships Primary keys and foreign keys identify the various entity classes (tables) in the database –Primary key – a field (or group of fields) that uniquely identifies a given entity in a table –Foreign key – a primary key of one table that appears an attribute in another table and acts to provide a logical relationship among the two tables
7-13 Keys and Relationships Potential relational database for Coca-Cola Primary Key Foreign Key Primary Key Foreign Key
7-14 Another example of Relationships among tables
7-15 Why Relational models What is wrong with putting all information in the previous slide all in ONE table?
7-16 Relational Database Advantages Database advantages from a business perspective include –Increased flexibility –Increased scalability and performance –Reduced information redundancy –Increased information integrity (quality) –Increased information security
7-17 Increased Flexibility A well-designed database should: –Handle changes quickly and easily –Provide users with different views –Have only one physical view Physical view – deals with the physical storage of information on a storage device such as hard drive –Have multiple logical views Logical view – focuses on how users logically access information
7-18 Increased Scalability and Performance A database must scale to meet increased demand, while maintaining acceptable performance levels –Scalability – refers to how well a system can adapt to increased demands –Performance – measures how quickly a system performs a certain process or transaction
7-19 Reduced Information Redundancy Databases reduce information redundancy –Redundancy – the duplication of information or storing the same information in multiple places Inconsistency is one of the primary problems with redundant information
7-20 Increase Information Integrity (Quality) Information integrity – measures the quality of information Integrity constraint – rules that help ensure the quality of information –Relational integrity constraint –Business-critical integrity constraint
7-21 Increased Information Security Information is an organizational asset and must be protected Databases offer several security features including: –Password – provides authentication of the user –Access level – determines who has access to the different types of information –Access control – determines types of user access, such as read-only access
7-22 Databases, and then what ? It provides a framework to store large-scale networked data –Increased flexibility –Increased scalability and performance –Reduced information redundancy –Increased information integrity (quality) –Increased information security Ok, we got a database, so now how we can get (Organizational) Information?
7-23 Database Management Systems Database management systems (DBMS) – software through which users and application programs interact with a database
7-24 DATA-DRIVEN WEB SITES Data-driven Web sites – an interactive Web site kept constantly updated and relevant to the needs of its customers through the use of a database
7-25 Data-Driven Web Site Business Advantages Development Content Management Future Expandability Minimizing Human Error Cutting Production and Update Costs More Efficient Improved Stability Developing DB Website Interface Driven from the Database Easier, by extending the DB Driven from the Database Only requires DB updates Efficient Querying through DB Utilize the power of DB security and Scalability
7-26 Data-Driven Business Intelligence BI in a data-driven Web site
7-27 Integrating Information among Multiple Databases Integration – allows separate systems to communicate directly with each other –Forward integration – takes information entered into a given system and sends it automatically to all downstream systems and processes –Backward integration – takes information entered into a given system and sends it automatically to all upstream systems and processes
7-28 Integrating Information among Multiple Databases Forward integration
7-29 Integrating Information among Multiple Databases Backward integration
7-30 Integrating Information among Multiple Databases Building a central repository specifically for integrated information

text: Yes! Another machine! With gift cards given me by friends and family over time I have added the Brother SE400 to my sewing room. Thought that I may as well toy with a little bit of embroidery. People tell me I could get in the habit! It's kind of fun. First though I needed to check out the machine functions. Got it on Amazon at a really good price, and wanted to check out all functions in the 30 day return period of course. Turns out it all works! And well! I am amazed at all that is packed into this baby at the price it sells for. Of course it didn't always sell so low. It is years old as a model and was mid range in the beginning and has proven itself over years of use by lots of folks who have gone on to machines with larger hoop areas. First a shout out to Kamala who has documented this machine so well on her own site! Her site was so useful to me and many others I am sure. Also here is a good video on how to use the USB facility to get designs to the machine. The manual is very vague on that, even though the USB has it's own little manual. I found the Burley-Sew video excellent and in passing he mentions the saving of the design to the machine. THAT is the part the manual overlooks. Once you see it it is easy. I will be posting more on this machine in future, but for now here are more pictures!
