The man accused of beating a Goochland Middle School teacher on campus will stay in jail.
Uriah Harris, 29, made his first appearance in a Goochland courtroom on Thursday. He faces a several charges including aggravated malicious wounding, assault and battery upon a person protected by a protective order and possession of a knife on school property.
The sheriff's office just released the 911 calls made the morning the beating happened. The 911 call released to NBC12 was made by one of the teachers credited for saving this woman's life.
The injured teacher is out of the hospital and recovering.
The call starts off with the caller gasping for breath. He tells the dispatcher he's in the Goochland Middle/High School complex.
"We got a…we got a tall black man beating up a white girl," he said.
The dispatcher asks the man to slow down and thinks he's talking about a fight between two students.
"Slow down you said a fight on the bus?" says the dispatcher.
"No! She was in the parking lot," says the caller. "She was being attacked when we got here."
The call lasts about a minute and 30 seconds. We now know the caller is one of the teachers the sheriff says saved this woman's life by physically stepping in.
"I'm just out of breath because I was trying to get the guy off of her," he says.
The caller says the attacker took off.
About an hour later, the victim's ex boyfriend, Harris, turns himself over to authorities. There were already several arrest warrants and a protective order against Harris. According to the affidavit, his ex-girlfriend claimed Harris had attacked her before and trashed the apartment they share in Henrico. It also says she believes he took her gun.
Now, that woman is suffering from what Goochland Sheriff James Agnew describes as a vicious beating with multiple injuries to her head and face.
NBC12 did speak to the teachers credited for saving this woman's life on Wednesday. They did not want to go on camera, but we know that they are married. One teaches math, the other teaches art.
On Thursday they released this statement through the acting superintendent of Goochland County, Dr. Peter Gretz. It says:
To our friends at the local news stations,
We have appreciated so much your partnership in disseminating timely and accurate information surrounding yesterday's assault. One very bright message that emerges from this story is the selfless and heroic action of two teachers who stopped the attack and protected their colleague from further injury.
We join you in wanting to highlight this inspirational display of selflessness and to celebrate their valor. These teachers, however, have asked to remain private by not participating in interviews with the press.
They have released the following statement, attributable as a direct quote from them, which I offer on their behalf:
"It was only through prayer and the presence of God that we did what we were able to do. We were so grateful as well to be helped by a host of amazing GMS & GHS faculty family! Most importantly we thank God that our colleague will get well! We love her!"
While NBC12 does know the identity of the injured teacher, we are choosing not to release it right now.

Molecule of the Week
May 31, 2010
Calcitriol, or 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, is the biologically active metabolite of vitamin D3. Its existence and activity were first described by several research groups in the early 1970s. It improves calcium transport in the blood and absorption of calcium from the blood to bones. More recently, Calcitriol's role in immune system defenses was elucidated by C. Geisler and co-workers.
More about this molecule from CAS, the most authoritative and comprehensive source for chemical information.

The Audi A1 is all set to get a much needed facelift for the 2014 model year, but that's not all that will be happening with Audi at that time. According to a report from "sources within Audi," the A1 facelift will also bring about the introduction of the S1 – a higher-performance variant of the compact hatch.
We expect this hot hatchback to come equipped with a 2.0-liter TSFI engine that is tuned to pump out 220 to 240 horsepower, but nothing is confirmed just yet. We also assume that the S1 will feature Audi's famed quattro all-wheel-drive system. This would likely translate out to a 5-second run to 60 mph and a top speed nearing 155 mph.
Now it's time for the bad news. Also reported by these supposed "insiders" is that the Audi RS1 is officially off the table. This 300-plus-horsepower hatchback is said to be a no go because officials think it would be too expensive to market in the compact hatchback realm. We can certainly see where this could be an issue with the Focus ST dominating the class at just over $20K, but there is definitely a market for a $30K-plus high-performance hatchback in our opinion. We're willing to bet that the S1 will test the market and if it performs well, the RS1 will launch.
We'll see what happens.

I hope those of you reading this blog, or any other blog or case commentary, choose to read the discussed opinion rather than rely on the headnote or summary found in the commentary. Recently I came across the following headnote: "Gentry v. Superior Court, which permits invalidation of class action arbitration waivers, remains viable despite AT&T Mobility LLC v. Concepcion." The case opinion referred to is Truly Nolen of America v. Superior Court (certified for publication on August 13, 2012) 2012 DJDAR 11207.
If you think from this heading that you will find that the opinion discusses and supports the application of the Gentry analysis that policy considerations supporting class arbitration will rule the day over the applicable contract, you will find that you have been seriously misled. While the California Court of Appeal, Fourth Appellate District, Division One, does say that California Supreme Court case of Gentry has not been expressly overruled, it goes on to say that the U.S. Supreme Court's reasoning in Concepcion strongly suggests Gentry is toast (my term, not theirs). The appellate court states, "[T]o the extent the Gentry decision would permit such a generalized showing to negate the parties' contractual intentions, that conclusion is no longer valid after the Concepcion and Stolt-Nielsen decisions." (See previous blog of June 19, 2012.)
The appellate court found in Truly Nolen that, in any event, the trial court erred in requiring class arbitration; that even if the Gentry factors still apply, they were not established in this case. It remanded the matter to the trial court in issuing writ of mandate in favor of petitioner Truly Nolen. The trial court was instructed to determine whether there is a contractual basis for finding the parties mutually agreed to class arbitration. Thus the actual holding of the case left little doubt that it was applying the principles found in Concepcion rather the Gentry factors.

A celebration of life for Felton resident Michael Ray Clark, 50, will be Saturday, May 4, in Scotts Valley. He died in an accident April 19.
Mr. Clark was born at Dominican Hospital in Santa Cruz and grew up in Felton. He attended San Lorenzo Valley schools and graduated from San Lorenzo Valley High School in 1981. He attended Sequoia Junior College in Visalia and received his AA degree while earning a private pilots license.
After graduating from California State University, Fresno, in 1986 with a bachelor's degree in geography and completing officer's training in the ROTC, Mr. Miller joined the United States Air Force.
Most of his military time was spent in Little Rock, Ark., where he served with the Mobile Air Lift Command, and at Mather Air Force Base in Sacramento. His passion was navigating in B-52s and flying C-130s. He was honorably discharged at the rank of captain in 2005.
Mr. Clark became a general contractor. He also worked in property management, as home inspector and a licensed realtor, and started his own business, named Mt. Whitney Mortgage, as a mortgage loan officer.
Family said Mr. Clark's adventurous spirit and love of the outdoors ignited his love of travel, boating, backpacking, camping and exploring. He backpacked throughout Yosemite and Sequoia Nation Parks and once hiked up Mount Whitney. He enjoyed studying military history and was an advocate for military veterans.
Mr. Clark is survived by his father, Robert E. Clark; brother Robert J. Clark; and many cousins, uncles and nephews and nieces.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Myrna Clark.
Saturday's celebration of life will begin at 12:30 p.m. at the Santa Cruz Moose Lodge, 2470 El Ranch Drive, in Scotts Valley. He will be honored by military burial at the Felton Cemetery with his immediate family and friends.
Contributions in Mr. Clark's name can be made to United States Department of Veterans Affairs at www.va.gov, or by calling the San Jose Regional office at 408-993-0729 in honor of Mike Clark.

5 things car salesmen won't say
Consumers are arming themselves with information before buying new wheels, and the folks at the dealerships are responding with a few new tricks of their own.
Buying a car can be a phenomenally complicated -- and expensive -- experience. As buyers have gotten savvier about researching and negotiating their purchases, dealerships have gotten sneakier about building in traps that may force you to pay more.
Here are a few to watch out for:
1. "I'm getting a secret incentive to push this car."
Most dealer and manufacturer incentives aren't hard to uncover. Rebates, low interest rates and other inducements are often advertised or easily found with a little research on car sites such as MSN Autos, Edmunds.com and others.
Harder to sniff out is an enticement known as dealer cash. That's a payment, typically of $500 to $2,000, that manufacturers quietly make to dealerships to sell certain slow-moving models.
"It's never advertised," said Philip Reed, a senior consumer advice editor for Edmunds.com. "They try to keep it a secret."
Dealership cash is different from a payment known as the holdback. The latter is a percentage of the car's sticker price (usually 2% to 3%) that the manufacturer pays to the dealership after the car is sold. Not all manufacturers pay holdbacks (Edmunds has a list of which ones do and don't), but it's a form of secret profit that allows dealerships to make money even when they sell a car at invoice.
Dealerships view holdbacks as pretty much untouchable, Reed said. Car dealers think of it as "their" money and aren't willing to give up or share any part of this payment with buyers. The main reason it's good to know about holdbacks is so you can counter the salesperson's phony lament that "we aren't making any money on this deal."
Liz Weston
Dealer cash, on the other hand, is up for grabs -- as long as you can find out about it. Edmunds.com lists dealer cash arrangements in its incentives and rebates section, under the heading of "manufacturer to dealer." If you're interested in a particular car, though, you might also want to call a few dealerships' Internet departments to discuss pricing.
If you ask "How much is the dealer cash on this?" rather than "Is there dealer cash on this?" and ask several dealerships, you'll probably get a good idea of the amount available, Reed said.
2. "Sticker shock is built into this deal."
Invoice pricing -- what the dealership pays the manufacturer for a vehicle -- is no longer a secret, said Brandy Schaffels, a senior editor for TrueCar, a new-car pricing service. Buyers can find invoice costs on a number of websites, and many customers focus on negotiating a deal as close to that cost as possible.
What buyers forget is that there are additional costs that can add thousands of dollars to a car's price -- costs that can't be negotiated away.
At the very least, there will be licensing, registration and title fees mandated by your state's department of motor vehicles. These fees are often based on the sales price of the car. Most states also have sales taxes on car purchases.
Early in your negotiations, you should ask what these fees will add to the purchase price so that you can negotiate with those in mind, Schaffels said.
You also may face "documentation fees" that cover the administrative costs of processing the paperwork involved with your purchase. A few states set limits on documentation fees -- in California, it's $55 -- but others don't.
"In Florida, for example, documentation fees can be another $1,000 on top of the price of the car," Schaffels said.
Though these may sound like junk fees, they aren't, Schaffels said, and you typically can't negotiate them directly. State laws usually require dealers to post the same documentation fee on all purchases. To reduce the fee could trigger a class-action lawsuit that would require a dealership to refund fees for every buyer, Schaffels said, and that could put it out of business.
What you can do, though, is ask for a lower sales price to help offset these fees. And it may help to focus your negotiations on the "out the door" cost -- the total price, including all required taxes and fees, that you have to pay to get the car.
What you don't want to do is strike a deal without considering these costs, then wind up with an unaffordable car once they're added in.
3. "You'll get a better deal from the Internet department."
Most car shoppers use the Internet to do at least some of their research. When it's time to buy a car, though, the majority still head to dealerships to match wits with salespeople.
What people typically don't understand is that the car buying is more transparent, and salespeople have more authority, in the dealerships' Internet departments, Reed said. You don't have to cool your heels in a salesperson's office for 45 minutes while he or she "checks with the boss" on every aspect of your negotiation.
The Internet department salespeople know what the bottom-line prices are for the cars they sell and usually are authorized to cut deals without checking in with superiors.
You can take advantage of this setup in two ways. From the comfort of your home, you can solicit lowest-price quotes on a car from a bunch of dealerships at once. Or, if you insist on going to a car lot, you can simply ask for the Internet department when you walk through the doors and skip the usual hustle.

The game began like any other, with no formal memorial to the toddler son of the NFL's reigning MVP. The Vikings chose not to make a spectacle of Adrian Peterson's grief, and if you believe the most cynical online chatter, they made the decision more to protect the image of their star player than to honor the deeply personal nature of mourning.
Peterson did not live in the same state as the two-year-old boy and, according to various reports recently, may not have even know that they were father and son until very recently. So, the theory goes, he couldn't really care about this loss the way a fully involved father would, and his employers couldn't possibly pay tribute to the relationship and ask thousands of their customers to join in.
The general cruelty of the remarks comes as no surprise. Too often, it seems, the only boundary in our digital star chambers is wherever good taste and decency reside. Few venture there.
In this case, though, the troll community borrowed the most fundamentally flawed element of its dialogue from the rest of us. Because biology linked this child to an athletic superstar, because he somehow belonged to the telegenic AP, he mattered. His death set off debate about how quickly a professional, athlete or otherwise, should carry on after such a loss. The way he died — two days after his mother's boyfriend was charged with assaulting him — alerted us to the horror of a recent domestic-violence offender, who pleaded guilty to assault against a woman and a young child, quickly taking up residence with another woman and young child.
This happens all too frequently, mostly to children whose lineage doesn't offer us an opportunity to feel a celebrity's pain. A police spokesman in Sioux Falls, S.D., where the boy died, seemed justifiably disgusted by the news media's efforts to confirm the paternity of this child as he still lay on life support, apparently abused to the point of brain death.
"We're surrounding our investigation around the injuries to this child," said spokesman Sam Clemens, who withheld the boy's name at the request of the family. "Who the father is does not come into play in this investigation."
Valuing children according to the stature of their parents is old news that keeps repeating itself. This attitude, at its worst, has enabled nightmarish treatment of kids in their own homes.
"It was in 1962 that the first child-abuse laws were passed, and that was the first time they ever gave it a name, the 'battered child syndrome,'" said Lynn Patner, a longtime social worker in California's San Mateo County. "So children who had been battered before, or really hurt before, the cases sometimes got tried under the animal-abuse laws, which were in effect a lot longer."
As of Saturday night, Patner didn't know anything about Adrian Peterson. She had never heard of him, or about the death of his little boy. After a short explanation of Peterson's place in the world, she cared only that his fame had prompted a reporter to call and ask questions about children in jeopardy.
"Every life is a story," she said. "This two-year-old boy, his life was a story, and it needs to be told."
It may come forth in court. Or perhaps through Peterson. He has asked for privacy during this ordeal, and he implored fans via Twitter to stop posting photos of his other toddler son, Adrian Peterson Jr., who was identified as the victim in one of the earliest reports. He also explained that the family was "currently not posting photos of my son who passed away."
In the end, he may find comfort in leveraging his celebrity for something much bigger than himself. On Sunday, that wasn't possible. A moment of silence for victims of child abuse would have amounted to presumption of guilt against the man accused of beating the two-year-old boy, jeopardizing the legal case. A moment of silence for Peterson's loss would have made this tragedy even more about him. It shouldn't be, and he must know that. If Peterson had met this son at birth and spent part of every day with the child, the story still wouldn't be about the NFL's MVP and his painful loss.

As enforcement pressures increase against drug traffickers in Mexico and Central America, a top U.S. State Department official said Wednesday that it is logical criminals will try to resurrect old drug routes through the Caribbean and regional governments should begin to prepare.
As part of that effort, the U.S. State Department signed a partnership agreement with PortMiami on Wednesday designed to help enhance port security in the Caribbean and improve future cooperation with other ports in the region.
Although State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) has signed more than 60 such partnerships with state, county and local entities in the past few years, the Miami agreement is the first inked with a port authority.
In an interview with the Miami Herald, William R. Brownfield, assistant Secretary of State for international narcotics and law enforcement affairs, said his goal is to build such partnerships and relationships now, so that as "the inevitable laws of market economics" come into play in 2014 to 2016 with traffickers seeking the paths of least resistance, "we're not caught with our pants down.''
The Caribbean drug trafficking routes of the 1970s and 1980s are "gray-haired in some respects'' but "they are still around and will begin to look more attractive'' to traffickers as law enforcement puts more of a squeeze on Central American routes, he said.
Under the arrangement, PortMiami, a hub for Latin and Caribbean travel and trade, would provide training and mentoring on anti-crime and port security matters to its counterparts in the Caribbean.
The specifics of the assistance are still subject to negotiation and costs for the program will be covered by the INL. But in broad brush strokes, the partnership would give ports in the Caribbean access to the technology, experience and personnel at PortMiami.
During the 1970s and 1980s, Miami was at the center of the Caribbean drug trade. "We have been there before and we did learn some lessons,'' said Brownfield.
Among the things Brownfield said Miami can share with its counterparts is its expertise in cargo container inspection and control programs.
When such programs work, he said, "they work for everyone,'' eliminating long port delays that can tie up shipments for two to three days as inspectors search for drugs and other contraband.
If ports around the Caribbean have better procedures and better inspection techniques, Brownfield said that will help PortMiami function more efficiently. Brownfield said he wants to communicate to officials at Caribbean ports that "if you want your port, tourism and cargo to flourish and grow, it's in your interest to have a port that's compatible'' with one of the largest ports in the southeast United States.

After hearing rave reviews about this on skincare blogs, I decided to give it a try. Especially because it was fairly cheap. So far, I'm not super impressed with it. The camphor smell is tolerable and doesn't last very long. While it does feel like it hydrates, it also leaves a very sticky residue that doesn't absorb into my skin at all. It also clogs the pores on my cheeks and breaks me out slightly. It seems like it could work great for very dry, aging skin but for me, I personally prefer a moisturizer that absorbs into my skin and leaves it soft. This stuff just feels like a layer of sticky all over my face that doesn't go away.
EDIT* I decided to use it as a night moisturizer instead and it does work great. My skin feels so soft when I wake up. Great for when I have dehydrated skin.
I spent 20 minutes hunting through Sephora for a silicone free moisturizer that wasn't too heavy for my face and was about to give it up when I spotted this little gem in the check out area. This is a glycerine based product so I was a little wary since glycerine can make me break out with repeated use. I love Tarte's glycerine cheek stains but can't wear them back to back or more then a staggered few days a week without getting a break out on my cheeks. That type of glycerine just parks on top of the skin which is what I'm assuming causes the issue this product aborbs almost instantly so I'm willing to give it a shot. Out of the tube the consistency reminds me of a yellow primer but a bit more dense and it smells a little like Carmex. Not the best scent but the package comes with an insert that explains the product and that the smell evaporates quickly and it does. Within seconds. I use this for my face and have combo skin. A little goes a long way a pea sized dollop is the perfect amount to cover my face and neck and this absorbs immediately with no greasy after feel and no residue. It hasn't made my skin oily throughout the day or caused any break outs so far and my skin reacts pretty quickly to new products. If after a few days there are no issues I'm usually in the clear. This could change as the weather warms up but I can see this working just as well for me on hot summer days as it is now in cool weather. This stuff is deceptively light. Other posters mentioned the soothing benefits and to my surprise I used this after an eyebrow wax the other day and it calmed the redness and swelling right down. Normally no matter where I get a wax done or what I do or take before or after I'm red and swollen and look like a freak show for hours. This took the redness away almost immediately and left me with just some slight swelling so that I could at least carry on with my day without giant sunglasses. Great find for the silicone sensitive and a definite rebuy.
** Update** So it's that time of the month when I get one or two really painful blemishes that you just can't help but mess with no matter how bad you know it's gonna look in the morning. I applied this moisturizer after washing my face and the next morning they were gone, no under grounders waiting to resurface or redness, you could barely tell they were ever there at all. If you have the same bad habit most people do, use this after. I'm assuming it's the camphor in the formula. Great multi-purpose product and will always be in my medicine cabinet.

My skin is combination, so basically, its iffy. I can use a product one day and it will do wonders and the next i may be battling an entirely different problem, sometimes its dry, sometimes its acne prone and super sensitive, and sometimes i feel i could put a pound of bacon grease on my face and it would prevail with glimmering perfection.
this said, i had a small test tube of the yu-be from sephora and was immediately terrified when i started putting it on my face, very thick, very smelly and entirely too vaseline esc for my skin!
however! after a half hour (yes, I'm a risk taker) the smell is gone and my face feels so supple and moist! I also spread a small amount on my lips resulting in pouty,smooth, kissable perfection, if anything, go sample searching and use it for your lips! i may or may not purchase it, but after a week i may change my mind!
I have such mixed feelings about this. I don't like the way it feels on my skin, so the giant tub is way too much for me. Having said that, this is my HG lip conditioner. I've tried so many things to smooth out my lips. I don't have a problem with them being dry or flakey or anything, I just have never had great smooth lips and nothing has worked. Not vasaline, not chapstick, nothing. I put this on at night once though and the next morning I literally had perfect lips. They were so smooth I couldn't believe it. I like the way it feels light and not super greasy. It absorbs really well but doesn't dry my lips out. All my lip products actually look good now and apply so much easier. It's definitely worth trying.

I just purchased my second bottle of this. I got a sample in my Birchbox, and purchased it right afterwards.
I don't understand how so many people don't like the smell. Yes it does smell a little medicinal, but in a good way. It is really soothing.
It is also really soothing on acne prone skin like mine. It doesn't break me out, but helps heal by dry, oily skin.
I also like it on my lips and hands. It sinks in REALLY quickly and does a good job moisturizing them.
Overall this is a really wonderful product that is pretty cheap in the long run, considering it has lasted me over two months and I use a big amount daily.
I used this when I went skiing for an entire week. While my friend's face was dry, tight and sore, mine was perfectly fine and didn't feel any tightness. This product is definitely a life saver.
I have heard so much about this that I expected it to be amazing. I never figured out the hype. The cream itself smells horrible and icky. The cream felt nice going on, but it didn't last. I applied it to my hands and whether I washed my hands within an hour or waking up in the morning letting it soak in all night - it still felt like it did not do anything to moisturize. I tried it on my lips and the smell was so icky I wiped it right off. The sample tube was a pain to squeeze the cream out. Would not use again or recommend.

I use this as a hand treatment more than anything, and usually only in a two-step process- the glycerin has a lot of slide.
The camphor is too much for my face, and it is too thin to stay on my lips (I heard Drew Barrymore uses this cream as a lip balm which is why i tried). What I like it for is maintenance if I don't have any other issues. For example, we just had our first cold weekend here and I got my tube out to spot treat the places on my hands where I get winter ezcema before I get it.
What I like to do with this cream the most is make it part of a process- i put it on, let it sink in, then put some kind of sealant over it- normally vaseline. I find putting an occlusive product over the top helps make this work even better. Otherwise, I like how this sinks in, which makes it a good hand cream while i am at work, and then at night I throw vaseline on top.
One standard tube has lasted me eight months and counting, I must have a bit over half a tube left. I like the fact that I use only a half a pea amount each time thanks to the slide of the glycerin, and the standard tube is small enough for a purse. Camphor isn't for everyone but I am a Carmex addict so hey, plus the scent fades.
i got a sample of this from sephora so when i ran out of my night cream i tried it & i LOVE it! i have very sensitive skin & break out really easy, this did not give me any problems at all & it actually seems to have "healed" a pimple i had :)
this cream smells so bad though! it smells a lot like carmex (that lip treatment in the yellow jar). when i first put it on my face it tingled a little so i was worried but the tingle went away real quick.
At first I thought I liked it but after a few more uses It has caused my face to break out (just like pretty much everything I've tried). It's a nice cream, just not for my face

I'm a big fan of multitaskers and initially purchased this for my super dry lips. While I didn't love the fact that it just sat on the skin and them formed a white line on my mouth, I rediscovered it when I ran out of another facial moisturizer. I have normal skin that breaks out and gets a little oily. This makes muslin moisturized and feel protected from the elements of outdoors and makeup. It prevents pimples from drying up too much. I use it after applying lemon juice and leave both on all night. So far so good.
I was having rashes and redness on my forehead and cheeks and wanted them to heal quick for an important business meeting. I had tried hydricortisone and betamethasone and pure Vitamin E, and none of them worked. I was also using jojoba and argan oil combos but still no results. I saw my Yu-Be sample and thought why not give it a try. The next day, all the redness disappeared! This is now my HG emergency breakout/allergy product.

"outstanding service"
short and to the point the people really care about your stay!!!!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Quick Stay"
We just stayed here from about midnight to 10 am the next morning. I was looking for just a place to stay in between driving up from Houston, and our hotel near Sea World. At $55 this hotel worked great for us. Wasn't in the best shape, AC was a bit loud, but the room was clean. You get what you pay for. I honestly don't see myself staying here multiple […] nights, but again I knew going into it that for the price, it wasn't going to be a super nice place. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Stains on carpet looked very dirty afraid to let babies down. Internet never worked not just for us but all hotel guess we talked to. Put breakfast away sometimes before 9 when it was suppose to be over. For the money great just need to clean carpets and floor in bath room grout disgusting.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Very GoodGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good for the price"
I really dont have any complains. The front desk people were helpful. The ice machine was broken. The breakfast consisted of waffles, toast, bagels, muffins, cereal, coffee and egg patties. The area is ok.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great price!"
We paid for the hotel a week ahead for a cheap price... I was kind of scared because of the saying, you get what you pay for but to my surprising everything there was in good condition.... the only thing I can say the restroom vent was way too loud... other than that everything was great. No complaints and I would definitely go back.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not pleased at all !"
It was so musty not ready at 2:00 had to leave and kill time to come into a hot sticky musty smelling room . Also floor/ carpet was sticky disgusting the whole experience made me feel itchy and we left a day early spent 100 dollars more for better relaxing stay at and different hotel . Never will I stay at a Days Inn againGenuine Expedia guest review
BUENA PERO DEBE HABER SITIO PARA LAS COMIDASGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Room smelled"
Our room smelled like cigarette smoke covered with bad air freshener, even though the room was supposed to be a non-smoking room.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Conference choice of motels."
The employees were very gracious and helpful. The facility is moderate. Acceptable stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good for overnight stay, but not much more..."
My wife and I stayed here for a week while we visited my sons. We booked largely for 1) price and 2) location. The price was reasonable as we looked online, but once there I think we overpaid by about $20/night based on the condition of the hotel. The rooms were in need of updates (decor, TV, carpets, etc.). Whoever painted the rooms must have been […] hired extremely cheap because there was splotches of paint on the ceiling and baseboards that showed signs of a rush job. The room had a jacuzzi tub, but I would not even think of sitting on the floor of that tub. They had a nice granite counter added in the main room for things like the coffee pot and other things, but the outlets were below the granite, so you could not plug in the coffee pot there (not very well thought out). The breakfast was indeed a continental breakfast, but 7 days of the same waffles, cereal, and bagels is enough to make you want to eat out. There were some things resembling what I can only assume were eggs, but I didn't see anyone eat them while I was there. It makes me wonder how often they get thrown out. The waffles you make yourself were good, but that is about it. The pool is nothing more than a large hot tub. It is so small that not many people are going to even consider that a plus when booking. If you are in town for Air Force graduation, then I would recommend you go to the Best Western south of Ingram Dr. Or even the La Quinta further south on the 410 loop.

"Nice rooms close to sea world"
We loved the rooms...it was easy to book online..the staff was very friendly and helpful.. needs new shower curtains in bathrooms..i would definitely stay there again. i will recommend to friends because of staff friendliness and the environment in the dinning area and office..The check in at this Days inn was the best experience i have ever had with […] a hotel. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
Stayed 4 nights. Needed very basic 'comfy bed and a shower' room between our days spent at seaworld, which is exactly what we got. Typical 70's decor. Annoying that the alarm on clock radio did not work. If you intend to eat the complimentary breakfast allow AT LEAST an hour to stand in line for a waffle! Housekeepers are non-english speaking so any […] requests are inevitably misunderstood. Somehow "need 3 bath towels" resulted in a bathmat with fresh blood spot!!! and washcloths were hand towels for the entire stay. Attention needed to cleaning of walls above vanity and of bathroom corner behind door, yuk! Price was what attracted us to this hotel and you do get what you pay for. We felt our rate was fair enough for the convenience of a room with fridge and microwave. Would really benefit from a VERY througher cleaning/sanitizing from top to bottom tho. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice for the price"
It is a nice updated hotel for the price. The downside for us was lack of high chairs in breakfast area.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Horrible experience ever"
We arrive to start our vacation and this hotel was filthy. The toilet wouldn't flush and fridge wouldnt cool. My husband is a dieabtic and needed his insulin needed to be refrigated. Also the room had sunflower seed shells all over the floor We didn't have sunflower seeds. Also found Animal feces under the bed. called the front desk and ask to move […] rooms. They wouldn't so the front desk attendant came and tried to fix the fridge and what I think was the owner brought in this huge auger to get the toilet to flush. I was so disgusted we couldn't find another hotel that late so we left and travel on down the road I would advise no one book this hotel this place is a dump Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
First it is not close to Sea World at all. Second it advertised as full breakfast, and it was waffel, breads, egg and coffee, no meat. Also it was the same everday no verity.Genuine Expedia guest review
WE ARRIVED ON A WED NIGHT AND THE FRONT DESK GUY WHO WAS WORKING WAS VERY RUDE !! I HAD RESERVED A ROOM WITH 2 QUEEN BEDS AND IT WAS TO BE NON SMOKING ! HE TOLD ME THAT I HAD RESERVED A 2 QUEEN SMOKING ROOM AND I SHOWED HIM MY CONFIRMATION # AND PRINT OUT WHICH SHOWED WHAT I RESERVED. HE TOLD ME THAT NOTHING WAS AVAILABLE AND THAT HE CAN GET ME A ROOM […] BUT IT WAS A SMOKING ROOM. WE HAD AN 11 YR OLD AND AN ALMOST 2 YR OLD WITH US. WE WERE ALL TIRE SO WE TOOK IT AND THAT ROOM SMELLED SOOOOOOOOOOO BAD WE DIDNT SLEEP COMFORTABLY. THE NEXT MORNING THE TOILET OVERFLOWED AND WE HAD WATER ALL OVER THE BATHROOM FLOOR AND INTO THE ROOM AND CARPET. WE WERE ABLE TO CHANGE TO ANOTHER ROOM BUT A BAD EXPERIENCE TO START OFF OUR 1ST FAMILY VACATION. CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE !! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Staff"
The staff here makes it worth your stay! They were very helpful and remembered items we requested while out. Thank you very much!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
We stay here when we went to Sea world, beds were comfortable, staff very courteous, breakfast decent, the hotel is old but is in ok shape. The Ac didn't work very well, but we were so tired that didn't attempt to deal with it.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not clean and we foud a spider in the bed."
It was not clean an we foud a big spider in the bed. They need to be more clean becauseGenuine Expedia guest review
Shuttle service to attractions not included. Mall extremely close but can't cross the highway unless you have a vehicle bit the reason your staying here is the close proximity to SeaWorld and advertised shuttle service. Received no complimentary newspaper and the grounds look worn down.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Armed guard and reinforced doors"
I was greeted by an armed security guard urging me to make sure everything was out of the car…and has reinforced ¼" steel plate on the door frame…so not the best neighborhood.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Out dated but convenient"
The staff was very accommodating, however the rooms are terribly out dated. The wifi was slow my phone was quicker. The location of the hotel was very close to everything we wanted to do and with the exception of other guests, was quiet. The ice machine was upstairs in an outside hall that was very noisy, other guests with children were very rude and […] excessively noisy. The breakfast was less than adequate serving cold cereal, microwaved eggs, waffles if you wanted to make them yourself and little muffins that seemed old. My 12 year old refused eat there. The dining room was so small that you could hardly get into it. The pool was extremely small and dirty. If you're looking for a CHEAP place to spend a night, maybe, but I'd still look for something else. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Friendly staff and decent hotel for the price"
Hotel was clean and nice but the a/c unit in our room made noises and that was annoying. Other then that it was great! Would definately stay there again!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great value."
No complaints...good safe location and good breakfast.Genuine Expedia guest review
Wifi did not work. Roll away bed was terrible.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good motel close to fiesta texas."
The overall stay was ok. The only thing we didn't like was there was no juice with the breakfast because the juice machine was broke.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Hotel was in a nice convenient location."
Clean room. The only thing is I chose a smoking room and I should not have.Genuine Expedia guest review
We were pleased for the price we paid. It was a older hotel so things were a little worn. Breakfast was ok, but not enough seating space.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Don't recommended this place at all, I won't be staying here ever again! I had a horrible experience both days I was there! Hated the place, I wanted to speak to the manager and never could. Horrible, horrible, horrible! !!!! Can't say it enough!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"It was not the best but it did ok just to sleep in"
The towels smelled like smoke and we stayed in a non smoking room, we had no coffee pot had to checkout the iron and the board was disgusting.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Very affordable and very comfortable good $$$"
After reading all of the reviews, I wasn't expecting much. So I was quite pleased when I walked in the room and didn't smell stale smoke, the size of the room was very spacious, the bed was very comfortable and sheets smelled clean, the bathroom was also very spacious and bathtub had jacuzzi jets, a/c worked perfectly, was surprised there was a mini […] fridge which came in quite handy. I have stayed in several hotels in San Antonio and paid double what I paid for this room through hotels.com and that's why I wasn't expecting much. I have stayed in rooms where the entire room was the size of just the bathroom at Days Inn. I will definitely recommend this hotel through hotels.com for the better rate and will be staying here again. I also checked with the rest of my party and asked if they had any problems. The only issue was that the front desk issued a key to a drunk man during the wee hours of the morning, just because he said he was in room "xyz'" and lost his key. So here's this strange intoxicated man at 4 am knocking on my friends door, saying "let me in, t his is my room", Just because he said he was in that room. Come to find out, he was in "zyx", so dislexia is to blame. Otherwise, we were extra comfy and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice hotel close to everything"
The only disapoiment thing to me was the pool!!!!!!! It's a small pool!!!!!! It's no joke but I did I not really care because I was not there anyways most of the time.....the owner is very nice and helpful:)Genuine Expedia guest review
"Dirty, Scary"
Men were smoking outside my room which caused me to move rooms. When I got to the new room, there were hairs on the bathroom floor. Remote didn't work. Staff seemed uncaring about my stay. Frustrated...didn't sleep well at all. I was surprised by the good ratings.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Okay for the price."
If you're looking for a lower priced hotel to stay at while in San Antonio, this will do. We were only in the room to shower and sleep for a few hours, so it suited our needs, and we saved a few bucks.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Mixed Review!!"
Not so Great Stuff--nasty odor, very stingy with bedding, A two-bed was booked, but there was only one king-sized bed. What was good--Jacuzzi, location, swimming pool, free breakfast.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
When we arrived at 2 am the room was dirty, they had to place us in a different room. Every morning housekeeping tried entering our room before 9 am.....so make sure you keep the latch lock on your door so they can't just come inGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Poor customer service."
There was a baseball size burn hole in the blanket on the bed. When I called the front desk, they were unable to get me a new one because the front desk did not have a key to the blanket closet and there was nothing else they could do for me. I understand this is not going to be the nicest hotel but who keeps blankets with holes in them?Genuine Expedia guest review
"George Starit concErt was AWESOME."
It was a good stay in San Antonio...enjoyed the city was great.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good place"
We stayed here for there nights on a family trip to seaworld. The front desk was very helpful and the rooms were exactly what we needed...which was a place to sleep and shower. Definitely not a suit. Was not impressed with the pool. All around a good place for rest.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"e.g. "Great hotel for a family""
Everyone was really nice. The staff was very helpful. The washer and dryer didn't work!!! I was really turned down about that. The beds were really hard. Other than that everything was grea.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Comfortable beds"
Our room was clean & the bed was very comfortable. Our room was right next to the highway so... We did hear a lot of highway traffic, but if you had a room on the other side of the building I don't think it would be that bad.Genuine Expedia guest review
"A cheap hotel."
The mattress was bigger than the box spring,felt like we were going to fall off the bed.The facet in the room was broken.The hotel cut the water off because there was a leak.Was not a nice hotel and would never stay there again.Genuine Expedia guest review
"You can do better"
No ice dispensers anywhere. Internet would not work in the evenings. Towels were old and scratchy. Very limited options for the continental breakfast.Genuine Expedia guest review

ThereÆs plenty to do in Toronto any time of the year. The largest city in Canada, and fourth largest in North America, and the capital of Ontario, itÆs got RipleyÆs Aquarium, the Royal Ontario Museum, the Toronto Zoo, concerts and baseball at the Rogers Centre, concerts and hockey and basketball at the Air Canada Centre, the Canadian Opera Company, the National Ballet of Canada, the Hockey Hall of Fame, a superb transportation system, ethnic neighborhoods (with amazing food) ranging from Greektown to Little Poland, from Koreatown to Little Italy, from Little India to five different Chinatowns, and there are 35,000 hotel rooms.
But if you go in September, itÆs all about movies. The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), running this year from Sept. 5-15, is the stuff of dreams for moviegoers, and itÆs become a destination for cinemaniacs who are looking for premiers of blockbusters and art house films, along with revivals of old classics, as well as a place to rub shoulders with actors and directors who are there to promote new projects and maybe catch some films in their spare time.
A few factoids: This yearÆs TIFF boasts 288 feature films and 78 shorts, which are representing 70 countries and will be shown on 28 screens. The longest film is ōNorte: The End of Historyö (270 minutes); the shortest is ōCRIME: Joe Loya ¢ The Beirut Banditö (1 minute, 40 seconds).
Among the directors scheduled to attend are Ron Howard, Stephen Frears, Jason Reitman, Agnieszka Holland, Jim Jarmusch, Spike Jonze, Lawrence Kasdan, Errol Morris, Fred Schepisi, Frederick Wiseman, Bertrand Tavernier, Steve McQueen, Godfrey Reggio, Ralph Fiennes and Eli Roth.
Actors you might be sitting next to in a restaurant or riding an elevator with include Nicolas Cage, Jennifer Anniston, Kate Winslet, Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Giamatti, Annette Bening, Reese Witherspoon, Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Emma Thompson, Keira Knightley, Jude Law, Sandra Bullock, Daniel Radcliffe, Susan Sarandon, Juliet Binoche, Benedict Cumberbatch, Nicole Kidman, Mila Kunis, Meryl Streep, Owen Wilson, Tim Robbins, Josh Brolin, Jennifer Garner, Matthew McConaughey, Liam Neeson, Hugh Jackman ... that list goes on and on.
One of the coolest things about TIFF is waiting in line with other movie lovers and discussing what youÆve seen and what youÆre planning to see. Screenings start at around 9 a.m., and the last show of every day ¢ under an umbrella known as ōMidnight Madnessö ¢ begins at 11:59 p.m.
As a journalist, I do a lot of interviews each year at TIFF, and I do my best to see a lot of movies. Having perused the 2013 schedule, I picked 53 features that I want to catch over my six-days there. IÆll likely only get to about 15, but IÆve whittled it all down to a list of 25 that I consider must-see. TheyÆre in alphabetical order.
ōAll Is By My Sideö (drama about the young Jimi Hendrix)
Page 2 of 3 - ōThe Art of the Stealö (heist comedy with Kurt Russell, Matt Dillon, Terence Stamp)
ōAugust: Osage Countyö (dysfunctional family drama with Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Ewan McGregor, Benedict Cumberbatch)
ōBeyond the Edgeö (3-D drama about Edmund HillaryÆs (Chad Moffitt) conquest of Mount Everest)
ōBurning Bushö (Agnieszka HollandÆs drama about a student who set himself on fire to protest RussiaÆs occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1969)
ōDevilÆs Knotö (Atom EgoyanÆs dramatic take on the infamous West Memphis Three trial, with Reese Witherspoon)

I'm Greg McBride with Bankrate.com and here is your weekly look at auto loan rates.
It was another week of new record lows for auto loan rates. Both new and used car loan rates dropped further as lenders respond to the competition by cutting rates. The average 5-year new car loan rate is now 4.58 percent and has fallen for 5 weeks in a row.
Rates continue to fall on used car loans as well. The average 3-year used car loan rate has now fallen for 6 straight weeks and is at the new low of 5.36 percent.
Despite the steady drops in auto loan rates, there is still a wide disparity in the marketplace. While rates in the low single-digits are available to borrowers with good credit, the same borrowers could just as easily spot rates in the double-digits.
Your best defense against being taken for a ride on your auto loan is to shop around. To see the lowest car loan rates in your area, visit Bankrate.com.

In 1986 the Water Management Act required state authorities to set "safe yield" limits that specify how much water can be pumped from river basins ("A move to save water sources," Page A1, Nov. 29). After a quarter-century of pumping so much water that rivers dry up, they are finally getting around to it.
Unfortunately, the proposed limits are far higher than current withdrawals that are already stressing many river basins — almost double the current withdrawals in the Charles River basin, more than triple those in the Concord River basin, and six times higher than in the Parker River basin. Taking that much water would certainly not be safe for fish, or for businesses that rely on recreation or tourism.

4 Suggestions for Dividend Growers
Mark is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
For those of you either in or approaching retirement, extra income could be an important part of a successful investment strategy.
There are some moves that can be made now to improve the chances of prosperity during the golden years.
They don't include relying on increases in long-term interest rates based on potential actions by the U.S. Federal Reserve; hoping Congress ensures the viability of the Social Security system or trying to time the market.
They do include finding companies that have paid, and consistently raised their dividends over long periods of time. Past performance is no guarantee for the future, but those businesses that have a long history of increased payments will probably continue to do so unless fundamentals change significantly.
Most dividend growers have a few common characteristics:
1. Steady earnings growth,
2. Plenty of free cash flow from those earnings,
3. Providers of certain products that consumers need or want on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis (i.e. no cars, refrigerators, smartphones),
4. Low or moderate payout ratio (or the portion of earnings paid out as dividends),
5. Little or no debt.
I'll examine several companies that have all or most of those traits.
Cleaning up
Many people buy deodorant, laundry detergent, paper towels, toothpaste, and shaving cream regularly. They are just some of the items provided by the world's largest consumer products company, Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG).
Sales of those products have provided a steady stream of cash flow into the company's coffers. Although growth has slowed somewhat lately, recent management changes are designed to reverse the trend. The board of directors recently brought back former CEO A.G. Lafley, who presided over the company during a solid growth phase, to take over again.
With a moderately low payout ratio (50%) and long-term debt ratio (32%), and lots of free cash flow ($3.1 billion last year), the company has all the ingredients in place to grow the dividend, which has been increased every year since 1956. The current dividend of $2.41 per year has risen at a compounded annual rate of 8.9% over the last five years, handily beating inflation.
Fill it up
In spite of calls from politicians and environmentalists to curb greenhouse gas emissions, consumers and businesses are going to need to buy gasoline for at least the next several decades.
Many people fill up their tanks on a weekly basis and the resulting sales provide a big windfall to major integrated oil and gas companies like Chevron (NYSE: CVX).
The California-based company has a low payout ratio of 27%, hardly any debt, consistent earnings growth (in spite of a slight slowdown this year), and plenty of cash that will allow it to keep increasing its dividend, presently at $4 per share. Since 2008, the payments have been growing at a rate of 8.4% each year. It has raised the dividend every year since 1988.
Chevron will also benefit from exporting liquid natural gas overseas to take advantage of relatively low domestic prices here.
I'm loving it
The fast food giant McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) is another dividend grower to look at.
Customers have been flocking to the Golden Arches for many decades and buying boatloads of Big Macs, French Fries, and milk shakes.
That has allowed the company to increase its dividend each year since it initiated it in 1976. The current payment is $3.08 per share per year which has doubled in the last five years.
With a payout ratio of 55%, earnings are projected to keep growing (even though they have slowed a bit in the recent past) and with over a billion dollars in free cash flow, McDonald's has ample room to keep the payments coming.
As a means of reviving growth, McDonald's is in the midst of revamping its ad campaign and menu which are emphasizing the lower price dollar menu instead of the premium Extra Value meals. Preliminary indications are that the new focus is working so far.
I'd like to buy the world a Coke
Another dividend grower and maker of one of the most profitable products around is Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO). The company has a presence in nearly every country. It is selling more than 500 different products right now and possesses one of the world's most recognized brands.
Coca-Cola's signature drink provided an operating profit margin of about 25% last year. The company sells millions of them and that generates tons of earnings and cash that are used to fund a healthy $1.12 dividend every year, and which has increased by 50% over the last five years.
The dividend is likely to keep growing since the payout ratio is reasonable at 55% and the company has a good balance sheet with long-term debt less than half of equity, regularly develops new products, and usually grows earnings every year.
For those investors that need dividends to supplement other forms of retirement income, looking at companies that use a tried and true formula for success that includes consistent earnings growth, lots of cash flow, lower payout ratios, and debt levels and products that consumers need regularly is a good starting place.
Companies like P&G, Chevron, McDonald's, and Coca-Cola seem to have mastered the equation pretty well.

When I was thirteen I started playing a drumset and taking lessons. A year later, I began writing rhymes. I was first inspired by my Jr. High, English teacher. After listening to some of my favorites in high school, (Ludacris, Eminem, Ect.) I hoped I could someday rap too, even if it was just for fun. I still continued to write and express myself. After being patient for years, and going through a few things....
Finally I have been lucky enough to be in a position where I can make some music. Writing and rapping is a great form of expression that I really enjoy.
Why this name?
It was a nickname given to me by a girl I had a crush on
Do you play live?
I've done some shows in the DFW area. It's been a while since I've done a show, because I took some time off of rapping. Since I got back into it, I've been building up my song collection.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet changes the music industry in a positive way. It helps music get out to more people than ever before. People are exposed to so much more music, which gives me a chance to reach more people than ever. Also, the internet has taken profit from record label executives and sent it back more toward the artists. I think it's great.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If all of the details were squared away and everything was on my terms, then yes, I would be stupid not to.
Band History:
Began playing a drum set at the age of 13. At the age of 14 I began writing rhymes and trying to rap. Played in a hardcore metal band for four years in high school. Doing shows at every venue we could find on the weekends. After high school, I continued playing the drum set and decided to peruse more of the audio recording side of the music industry. After learning a thing or two about DAW's and recording techniques, I decided to make songs myself. I was dying for the expression that creating your own music gives you. My first recorded rap song that I released was called, "Boomin' Basses". That was in 2008.
Now it's 2012 and I'm still at it, working harder than ever.
Now it's 2012 and I'm still at it, working harder than ever.
Your influences?
incubus, eminem, jay-z, poison the well, drake, 2pac
Favorite spot?
santa monica pier
Equipment used:
myself and a mic, when performing live.
The equipment I use to record is an iMac, an M-audio Firewire Audio Interface, Pro-Tools 8,

Anything else...?
I want to thank anyone and everyone that listens to my music. Whether you enjoy it or not (hopefully you enjoy it) I make this music for you. It makes me so happy to share it.

Hundreds of volunteers spent their Saturday morning counting scallops. It sounds silly, but the scallop population has plummeted in recent years because of red tide and freshwater releases.
We traveled with crews out on the water who gave us a first hand look at what the tally means for our water ways.
Six employees with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission keep track of scallop populations throughout the state of Florida.
"Our goal is to help manage the population of scallops. We want to get a study on the population numbers, on how they increase and decrease over the years," said Bryan Fluech, Florida Sea Grant Extension agent.
It's an unrealistic task, but with more than a hundred enthusiastic volunteers, it becomes reality.
"It's a very educational experience, and you don't really get that very much," said volunteer Holly Hassett.
"This is an opportunity to help scientists kind of gauge and see how the population is doing out here," said Susie Hassett.
The reason these scallops are so important is because they act as an indicator or a litmus test for how our waters are doing.
"These sea grass beds are extremely important for our recreational and commercial fishing, our tourism industry, so when we get to see higher populations of scallops, it can be an indicator that these systems are working really well," said Fluech.
In the 1950's, you could find a scallop about every square foot.
The crew we rode along with today, however, searched all over and didn't have much luck.
"As far as the transects, so far we are batting… not a high batting average, but that is important to realize that zero is data," said Fluech.
Experts say the recent findings are nothing to be alarmed about.
"We are telling a story here. We are trying to see trends over time so one point in time doesn't tell the whole picture," said Fluech.
That whole picture will continue to be painted as populations return and volunteer searches increase.

Mercedes Executive Director Toto Wolff has admitted that the pace Fernando Alonso and Daniel Ricciardo showed at times in Shanghai is something of a concern for the Brackley outfit.
Lewis Hamilton comfortably won the Chinese Grand Prix from pole position, but after making a poor start, his team-mate Nico Rosberg had to battle past Sebastian Vettel, Daniel Ricciardo and Fernando Alonso to finish the race in second place.
Although the German managed to move through the field on the day, Wolff admitted that the pace of both Ricciardo and Alonso was something of a concern.
"In terms of performance the cars were different; Nico lost telemetry before the formation lap, so you are basically blind in the car. The way he managed the situation was really good. In the first stint it wasn't easy for him to overtake the cars; he was following Ricciardo and there was just no way even on the straight to get past him. That shows that you need to get things right and you have to qualify well," he told crash.net.
"Then at the end I think strategy-wise we took the right decisions. We were pushing the second stint quite long because we knew at the end he had to manage the tyres and this is I guess why Alonso had to back off at a certain stage, because he knew he was going to not finish the race on that pace.
"But we have to be cautious; they are coming. You saw Alonso, you saw Ricciardo in the last stint again on similar times to our cars...
"It is quite interesting because what we saw also in the last couple of races is that you have situations in the race on one tyre set when suddenly the times seem to be much more closed up.
"I mentioned Ricciardo's time; he was matching Lewis' time and Nico's time and then in the second stint that wasn't the case, Lewis was going but Nico was struggling behind Ricciardo. So we have to really find out the way our competitors deploy the energy and how the efficiency and the fuel consumption works with them, because it looks like sometimes they go faster and they don't seem to manage that to the end of the race."
