If I had to guess, I would say this hotel used to be an Embassy Suites. It has the large atrium with the rooms located all around it. It would explain the layout of the room, also. Anyway, the husband and I were in town to see the Rangers. The hotel is close to the stadium and on the trolley route, when the trolley decides to show up. It was the only problem we had with our weekend, and it certainly was not the hotel's fault. We noticed on our first night that once the trolley is full, it bypasses the other hotels. We waited over 25 minutes the second night of our stay for a trolley to show up - and this was only because the hotel called to say there were lots of people waiting. We usually stay at a hotel that is within walking distance to the ballpark, but I forgot to make a reservation! The free trolley was a factor in our decision to stay here.
As for the hotel, we enjoyed our stay. Our room was clean and nicely furnished. I enjoyed having a suite so I could sleep later than my early riser husband! The bed was comfortable, and we both got a good night's sleep. I very much like having a comforter on the bed, which this room did not have. The "suite" part is furnished with a sleep sofa, chair, coffee table and desk. It was nice to have lots of room. Housekeeping did a good job - our room was clean and towels replaced. We discovered the drain in the tub didn't drain very well, which we told the front desk about. It had been fixed when we returned after the game. Internet connectivity was fine in the sitting/desk room, but not so great in the bedroom. The air conditioner worked well and kept us comfortable. I am not a fan of hotel shampoo and conditioner, but I forget to pack my own. As usual, the hotel-supplied shampoo dried out my hair. We ate at the hotel restaurant, which was surprisingly good, except for breakfast. Breakfast was included in our rate, but I don't call bad coffee and stale coffee cake breakfast. There was not much at all to choose from. I suggest the restaurant stay open a bit later on nights the Rangers are in town. We arrived back with ten minutes to spare, so we were able to order a sandwich to take to our room, but people who took later trolleys went to bed hungry. The restaurant was adamant about not serving after 11 p.m. They lost out on a lot of business that night, while the wait staff lost out on tips. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, answering all of our questions about local restaurants and the trolley. The club room for club members is a joke. Expect nothing so you won't be disappointed. The refrigerator is locked, so there is no access to bottled water, which is not the case in other hotel club rooms. All in all we had a pleasant stay, but I will most likely not return based on the trolley system. As I said, we had to wait 25 minutes for a trolley to show up, and we missed the first half-inning of the game. On the return trip, the lines for the trolley were long, long, long. I prefer to be in charge of my own transportation, and walking is my choice. If I have to be in Arlington for business rather than leisure, I would stay again.

As if L.C. Davis (16-4) wasn't already disappointed after he found out he did not make the cut when the WEC merged with the UFC, now he's found out he will be forced to sit on the bench and watch yet another mixed martial arts opportunity fall out of his reach.
Davis was originally scheduled to appear on the upcoming Titan FC 16 card for January 28th however after suffering an unexpected knee injury while training for his upcoming bout with Jared Downing, he will now be watching from the sidelines.
There has yet to be a statement released regarding the severity of Davis' injury nor has there been a return date set for the fighter's comeback.

No John, In case you think I am jealous, Hull earned the right to be where they are, no one can take that away. They are top flight, my team are 2 tiers lower, it has nothing to do with that. However, some of the fantasy that is being written on here, well, that is all it is, fantasy ! 15 or 20 years ago, yes, a team could come up and make a serious dent in the top flight, strangely enough, Leeds did it. That just does not happen now, the best Hull can hope for is fourth from bottom, anything else is fantasy. BUT, hey, this is soccer, Good luck to the Tigers, do not try to match the top teams for skill, go in hard, in the words of Captain Mannering " They don't like it up em "Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Hey Bats! Jealous? YOU? Na! Pal! No Way! A Twinge envious maybe! Course they earned the right to be there! BUT now they have to earn the right to stay there! That bats as you so rightly said is going to be a wee bit difficult! Hull is my Home Town, and all my life I have seen them play in the old 2nd Div and truth said I never ever expected them to be anywhere else! They hit "Rock Bottom" a few years back after a series of "Hard Knocks", Taylor got em back into the Championship, then left em for Greener Pastures, Crystal Palace I think? Anyway it looked like they where back where they belong and would have to fight to stay there! Two Seasons ago they and Leeds where both at the bottom of the Championship! My Heart was torn! Home Town against the Club I have followed for forty years!
Mr Wise made the decision for me! The FA/FL did the rest bless their Cotton Socks! (And The Twisted Panties of the Rest of the Club Managers)! Nobody was hoping as much as I was that Leeds would win the playoffs, but it was not to be! (Would rather have a no disputing promotion as Champions anyway)!
Part of me would like it to be Leeds back in the EPL this time round, while part of me says c`mon Tigers J`ve Ern`T it, so go and DO IT! Maybe they should adopt Mannerings phrase as a byword for the fight to come"THEY DON`T LIKE IT UP EM!"
Fantasy is alright Bats, in Film, but NOT in Football!

Back by popular demand, this class is all about decadence. First, we will discover just what it is that makes this classic favorite a special and gourmet treat by tasting four different macs & cheese. But that's not all. In addition, we will have a plate of cheeses I've selected to taste on their own as well as use for the macs & cheese. And… I will choose wines to go with each of the cheeses as well as the mac & cheese, so we'll be rockin' and rollin' the whole time. One piece of advice: don't eat lunch that day!
You are here
Coming Events
Mac & Cheese and Wine Pairing
Cheese & Fortified Wine Pairing
'Tis the season… for fortified wine. Think Port, Madeira, and Sherry and you'll get the idea behind this class. Cheeses and their fortified wine partners is the theme, and it's going to be a good one. Madeira is one of the best food wines there is (not just cheese), and so too Sherry and Port. We'll explore the world of fortified wine and cheese pairing by tasting, tasting, tasting. Be sure to have your designated driver on speed-dial.
Say Cheese, Please!
When it comes to cheese, there are two classics: grilled cheese and mac & cheese. Well, I've written two books on grilled cheese, and one on mac & cheese, and both classics will get top billing in this class. I'll be featuring four creamy, gooey, utterly irresistible mac & cheese and grilled cheese recipes from my books along with the perfect wines to go with them. But that's not all. I'll also select special cheeses to feature in the cooked dishes for everyone to taste in their pre-cooked form. And last but not least, those cheeses will be paired with the wines, posing the question, which is the better complement to the wine? The cheeses on their own or with the cooked dishes instead? Or are they good with both? Come decide at this fun and decidedly cheesy class.
Cheese & Chocolate: The Worlds Two Best Foods On One Plate, One Palate
Cheese and chocolate may or may not sound like an intuitive pairing, but together, the right pairings can be transcendent. Not only that, both American artisan cheese and so-called bean-to-bar (from the source) chocolate-making in America are unprecedented in their popularity. Get the basics on American chocolates and cheeses with me at this iconic cookware store and cooking school in beautiful Eugene, Oregon, and taste these two swoonworthy foods side-by-side in a variety of combinations. How well do they pair? Hint: extremely well. But that's for you to judge. Besides, even if you don't like the pairings, you can be sure you'll love both the chocolates and cheeses on their own. Can you say "slam dunk?" Oh, and yes – there'll be a little vino to sip alongside. Maybe even a craft beer too. Surprises await!

The robot dog: An idea whose time never came and (we hope) never will
Can we go ahead and bury the robot dog, once and for all?
It was an inane idea from the get go — thinking that Americans or people from any other reasonable country would want a pet with batteries.
The robot dog is the antithesis of dog — a soul-less collection of moving metal parts that, while it may obey your every command; while it may not pee, poop, drool or shed; while it might even make you laugh; isn't ever going to lead to any sort of real bond.
If someone truly loves their robot dog, well, they most likely have become a robot, too, having let technology, and all the ease and superficiality it offers, write a new script for their lives.
I suspect the same is true as well of those who came up with and developed the idea.
A robot dog is to dog what a light bulb is to the sun.
Turn it on, turn it off. You might be seeing a harsh and glaring light, but you are not seeing "the" light. Only dogs can provide that.
It's not surprising that robot dogs are burning out.
It is surprising that an Australian researcher recently suggested that robotic dogs could begin replacing real dogs as pets in the world's largest cities in as little as 35 years.
Jean-Loup Rault, writing in the journal, Frontiers in Veterinary Science, says burgeoning populations in big cities won't leave much room for man's best friend in the future — and he predicts that living, breathing dogs will disappear as digital technologies "revolutionize" the human-animal relationship.
Rault is wrong, and here's why.
True, robots are on the rise. We will increasingly rely on them, or something close, to wash our dishes, vacuum our floors and do all those other tasks that take up time we could spend online, or, better yet, actually living life.
But we will never really connect with them — not even sex robots.
Anyone who does, probably should see a psychiatrist or, if they only want to pretend someone is listening to them, a robot psychiatrist.
Even in a world increasingly falling in love with material things, and increasingly falling in love with technology, and increasingly finding its social life on the Internet, the rise and fall of the robot dog shows us that — even when we can predict and control something's every move, and put it in the closet when we tire of it — a mechanical canine just can't compete with the real thing.
Dogs — though technology has messed with them (always with bad results) — are the antidote, I think, to technological overload. They are the cure. They keep life real. They lead to real bonds, real emotions, happiness and pain.
Overall, they soothe us, while technology often does the opposite.
Anyone who thinks a robot dog is going to lower their blood pressure, as dogs do, provide eye contact that stirs the soul, or be comforting to play with or pet is caught up in self-delusion.
What is hoped for by companies that make such devices, or provide us with Internet-based fantasies, or come up with ideas like pet rocks and the Tamagotchie, is that we all find self-delusion a happier place to be, and stay there, and spend our money there.
So I'm glad the obituary has been written for Sony's "Aibo," the best known robot dog.
Production ended eight years ago, and the Japanese company stopped servicing the robots last year.
Sony introduced the Aibo in 1999, and by 2006 had only sold 150,000 "units." according to the New York Times.
Given it was not providing much profit, the company decided to put Aibo down.
Despite that, and the failure of many of the robotic/digital pets that preceded and followed it, Jean-Loup Rault, on the faculty at the Animal Welfare Science Centre at the University of Melbourne, suspects they have a future.
"Pet ownership in its current form is likely unsustainable in a growing, urbanized population. Digital technologies have quickly revolutionized human communication and social relationships," he says.
"We are possibly witnessing the dawn of a new era, the digital revolution with likely effects on pet ownership, similar to the industrial revolution which replaced animal power for petrol and electrical engines."
He points to the popularity, or at least former popularity, of devices like the Tamagotchie, and Paro, a robotic baby seal used by medical professionals, and Aibo, which never really became popular at all. He points to games and apps that allow people to keep fake farm animals. He points to the movie, "Her," in which a man falls in love with his computer's operating system.
"Robots can without doubt trigger human emotions," he concludes, perhaps a little too quickly.
And robotic pets, he says, are just so much easier — especially in "situations where live pets are undesirable (e.g., old or allergic people)."
"The pace of artificial pet development, and underlying research, remains in its infancy with much to be discovered," he notes. "At present, artificial pets can be described as mediocre substitutes for live counterparts. Yet, quick technological progress is to be expected …"
He concludes with a quote from Nikola Tesla: "Let the future tell the truth."
I, for one, am not willing to do that. I don't trust the future one bit, or those who are trying to take us there too quickly — and at the expense of what is pure and real and true.
Much more than the future, I put my trust, and faith, in dog. Real dog.

So he ain't no Willie Mays
He isn't exactly adept at catching airborne snacks in his mouth. Does that mean Fritz the Golden retriever should be made a laughingstock?
Probably not, but welcome to the Internet age, in which dogs (and humans) are more likely to become famous not for doing something right, but for doing something wrong — and the more "epic" the fail the better.
This video was posted on YouTube last week, and since has been reposted on major media websites, and broadcast on TV, like yesterday's Today Show — all but guaranteeing it will go viral.
We hesitated before even posting it, because in a way we see it as laughing "at" Fritz, who, for all we know, might have a vision problem or other disability.
But we admire his persistence, and the look of determination in his eyes. We admire that far more than we admire the owner, and — assuming Fritz is eating everything thrown at him after it lands on the ground — the unhealthy diet he is providing his dog.
Fritz flubs it when he tries to catch, among other food items, a donut, a slice of pizza, a hot dog (on bun, with mustard), a chimichanga and more.
Not until the very end does he manage to catch an item — what appears to be a french fry.
The YouTube post provides few details, so we can only hope this was videotaped over time, as opposed to all in one day — for the sake of Fritz's stomach, and his owner's carpeting.

More scandalous behavior at Crufts 2015
As an investigation continues into the apparent poisoning death of an Irish setter who competed at Crufts, and reports surface of up to six more poisonings, one of the human contestants has come under fire for picking up her Scottish terrier by the tail during judging at the world's largest dog show.
U.S. contestant Rebecca Cross, owner of Knopa, the Scottish terrier who won Best in Show at Crufts, was filmed picking the dog up by her tail and around its neck to place her on the ground. Now Cross is taking a bashing online.
Knopa's crowning moment was interrupted during the show when a protestor with a sign reading "Mutts Against Crufts," ran onto center stage and was spirited away by officials.
And the RSPCA is investigating reports than another canine contestant was beaten by his owner or handler outside the arena earlier in the week.
All in all, it's fair to conclude, not a good year — public relations-wise — for Crufts.
To say the embarassing series of incidents this year, and all the scandals that have preceded them, are signs that dog beauty shows (and dog ugly shows) have run their course would be a knee-jerk reaction.
There are much better reasons they should become a thing of the past.
Jagger, the Irish setter who competed under the name Thendara Satisfaction, died the day after returning home to Belgium. His owners say a necropsy revealed his stomach contained beef cubes tainted with three strains of poison.
A full toxicology report is expected next week.
Meanwhile, the Independent reports that the owners of as many as six other dogs suspect their showpiece pets may have been poisoned while at Crufts.
A West Highland White terrier, an Afghan hound, two Shetland Sheepdogs and another Irish Setter have all reportedly fallen ill after the international competition.
Yesterday, there were reports that a shih tzu competing at Crufts had died after being poisoned, but UK's Kennel Club said it could not confirm them. Nor is it confirming that Jagger died from poisoning.
If all that weren't enough, another competitor has been alleged to have beaten his dog outside the arena — although photos circulating online don't fully substantiate that. Both the RSPCA and the Kennel Club confirmed they were seeking more information on those allegations.
As for Knopa, the dog whose owner used her tail as a handle — we'd guess she does that to avoid messing up Knopa's coiffure — Kennel Club Secretary Caroline Kiskoe said handling a dog that way is improper, but apparently it's not so frowned upon that it would lead the Kennel Club to revoke the title.
An online petition on 38Degrees has accumulated almost 90,000 signatures, calling for the title to be revoked, and hundreds of commenters are urging the same on the official Crufts Facebook page.
Knopa's owner apparently picks her dog up that way often — at least often enough that it has become in her words, "a habit."
"I didn't do it on purpose, it was just habit," Cross said. "It's just one of those things."

Woof in Advertising: Utterly unskippable
You know, probably all too well, those intrusive and uninvited advertisements that often precede viewing the videos you want to view on the Internet.
They are known as "pre-roll ads," and I always do my best to make them disappear — both in terms of the videos I put on ohmidog!, and in terms of my own home viewing. I skip them the millisecond YouTube permits me to.
This one though, I've watched ten times, in its entirety.
The first five seconds of the Geico ad shows an all-too-typical family enjoying an all-too-typical spaghetti dinner, with the wife bragging about saving money on her insurance bill before the ad seems to culminate, at the five-second mark, in what at first appears to be an all-too-typical freeze frame.
That, as the family remains frozen — or at least tries to — is where the Saint Bernard comes in.
He eats spaghetti off the dad's fork, climbs atop the table and clears the daughter's plate, passes over the salad and spills a glass of milk as he proceeds to the the son's plate, devouring its contents. Then he plunges his snout into the serving dish mom is holding.
The ad doesn't really make me want to find out if 15 seconds can save me 15 percent on my insurance bill, but it's brilliant — and further proof that dogs have a way of holding our attention, especially dogs behaving badly.
The ad was filmed in Los Angeles last month, and the dog, whose real name is Bolt, is a Saint Bernard mix.
If you find it impossible to skip, that was exactly the goal — to keep people riveted, even though it's a form of advertising most of us detest.
"We call these unskippable," Joe Alexander, chief creative officer at The Martin Agency, told USA Today. The agency has created three other mock freeze-frame Geico spots.
"Our goal is to bring attention to Geico in a space that is often hated," he said.

The case of the grieving Rottweiler
I eschew anthropomorphism. I eat meat. I am neither touchy nor feely. Yet even I, a (mostly) cynical and unemotional sort, couldn't help feeling some emotions rise up in me when watching this video of a Rottweiler seemingly grieving the death of his litter mate.
It was posted on YouTube last month, by a Seattle man who says he awoke to find one of his Rottweilers dead, and the other resting his head atop the deceased dog, refusing to move.
"Clearly you can see in his eyes, he is crying for his brother who had passed as his world around him just crumbled. We both grieve and cry for our brother … This is proof that animals DO have emotions and feel pain just like we do," Brett Bennett wrote in the YouTube post.
I, being a cynic, question some of that, particularly the crying — I'm not sure dogs shed actual tears of emotion. But I do believe dogs have emotions, and can feel sadness.
What I question much more than whether Brutus is truly grieving, though, is how Bennett is using the video to get online donations to buy himself a house in the country.
On the post, he provides a link to an Indiegogo page he created, seeking donations he says will be used to provide housing for himself (he says he's homeless) and his dogs (he says he has four).
In fairness, he began the campaign before Hank died in late January, initially seeking enough money for a security deposit and first and last month's rent required to rent a home.
Since reaching that goal, and since the death of Hank, he has apparently set his sights higher:
Under the headline "Help Grieving Rottweiler Buy a New Home ," he explains, "before Hank passed, we had started a fundraiser to help us into a nice warm home and off the streets … We have succeeded in our goal, but have been approached by animal lovers from around the world to reach for the stars and to ask for donations to not rent, but to own a home.
"As everyone knows, it is very hard to rent a place with a Rottweiler or with several rescue animals. It would give us the option to rescue as many animals in need or as possible. Our mission goal, our dream, is to buy a house out in the country, on some acreage, with the ability to freely rescue and foster as many animals that we can…"
I applaud his stated intentions — to rescue more animals — and I have no problem with people who are experiencing hard times seeking the public's help, or with the public providing it.
But even assuming Bennett and his plea are all on the up and up, it still strikes me as a rather bold request. Asking for help to pay for a life-saving veterinary procedure is one thing; asking us to help buy a house in the country for him and his dogs is quite another. And recording and broadcasting the heartstring-tugging reaction of Brutus to the death of Hank may be laying it on so thick as to border, in my opinion, on exploitation.
(Then again, the same could be said of those ultra-sad ads some animal welfare organizations use in their quests to raise funds.)
"Don't let Hanks passing die in vein (sic )with him," Bennett asks, "Please share our story."
So I'm kind of doing that, with obvious reservations.
Being cynical, I'm a little wary of pleas by dog owners appealing to the public for financial help via crowdfunding websites like Indiegogo. There's really no way to know — short of playing detective yourself – which ones are legit, and which ones are scams.
With his video of Brutus going viral — more than 2.5 million views as of last weekend — and with it bringing in advertising revenue as well, I suspect Bennett is on his way to amassing a decent down payment, and he's definitely showing some initiative.
But as with another dog-related story I've covered at length, pet cloning, there's something distasteful about turning people's tears and grief into big bucks.
Bennett says on his Facebook page for the dogs that he suspects Hank died of a broken heart.
"I'm so sorry you guys … I wasn't strong enough and had a breakdown in front of the dogs. Hank was right by my side with his Therapy Dog service and grieved with me as I was so upset. He looked so sad. I noticed Hank never came out of his grievance and stopped eating. He was still drinking and nibbling on food so I thought he was okay. A week later Brutus and I awoke to his peaceful body next to us as he passed in the night in his sleep."
He says the video was shot "about 30 minutes after we woke up and were missing our baby. I normally don't video record my real life catastrophes or share but decided I needed to send a message to the world and show how much pain my dog was in as he loved his Twin so much."
Bennett says Brutus is weeping on the video. And, in it, you can hear Bennett sobbing himself. I'm not suggesting any of it is fake. I'm no expert on human emotions, or animal emotions. Is there really any difference between the two? I don't know, but my hunch is, based on how the video is so blatantly being used to raise money, that it's the reaction of Brutus that may be more sincere.

A new wrinkle in case of Scottish shar-pei
Whether it's his worried and wrinkly-faced appearance or his sad situation, a shar-pei mix found abandoned at a train station in Scotland, a suitcase at his side, is garnering support, donations and love from around the world — even as his story still unravels.
Now, according to the latest reports, it seems the dog was the subject of an online transaction gone bad.
A woman has stepped forward to say she found the dog for sale online, and made arrangements to pick him up in Ayr, but then went home without him after the dog's seller slipped away before the deal was done.
After making the train trip from her home in Newmachar, Aberdeenshire, to Ayr, and seeing the dog, she had doubts about whether he was the one advertised, and began wondering if the man selling him had stolen him.
"We had been messaging back and forward for a couple of days about the dog. He was supposed to be a one-year-old and his name was Pluto," Fin Rayner is quoted as saying in a BBC report.
After meeting the dog in the train station, she asked the seller if she could take the dog for a short walk, so she could see him in the daylight.
The man insisted on a deposit first — of £150. As she walked away, so did he.
"Before I got to the door, I looked back and he was gone — he had disappeared in his car," she said.
She tried calling him on the phone, she said, and he agreed to come back for the dog. But, after 15 minutes, he still hadn't showed up.
"I got into the station and the dog wasn't settling. He was pulling on the lead and peeing everywhere," she said. "I thought that it wasn't my dog — I didn't want him."
Rayner said her panic disorder kicked in, and she began worrying that she might get caught with a stolen dog.
Needing to get a train, she informed train station officials the dog didn't belong to her and that she was leaving him there. She said a station official suggested she tie the dog.
He was picked up and is now in the care of the Scottish SPCA, which hopes to arrange an adoption in the days ahead.
Already, he has received surgery to correct a problem, common to shar-pei's, in which his eyelashes dig into his eyeballs — all funded by donations from the public, according to the Daily Record.
And he has been featured in a new PETA ad encouraging potential pet owners to be responsible and adopt animals rather than buy them online.
The dog had been advertised on the website Gumtree.
The ad uses the photo of the dog in the train station, and reads, "I'm Kai. I was bought and sold on Gumtree and ended up homeless."
"When people buy a dog off the Internet, they're not only funding breeding but also robbing a homeless animal of his or her chance at adoption," PETA director Mimi Bekhech told the Scotsman. "Unlike animal shelters, breeders don't screen their buyers or perform home checks, so there's no way to ensure that the animals are going to good homes or that the new guardians receive an animal companion who's suitable to their household."Kai is now the star of a new advertisement, the Scotsman reports.
The man trying to sell the dog has not been identified. The suitcase contained the dog's pillow, a toy, food bowl and food.
The Scottish SPCA traced a previous owner through the dog's microchip but were told it was sold in 2013 to someone else.
Since taking the dog in, the SPCA has received offers to adopt him from across the globe. Donations to the Scottish SPCA — which plans to use any excess Kai donations to help rescue other abused, abandoned and injured animals, you can visit this page.

Palin: "At least Trig didn't eat the dog"
Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
A smug and smiling Sarah Palin continued to defend photos she posted online of her son standing on his service dog to reach the kitchen sink, appearing on Today to lash out at PETA and what she called its hypocrisy.
The animal rights group has criticized the former vice presidential candidate for posting photos over the weekend of her six-year-old son Trig, who has Downs syndrome, climbing up on his prone service dog, Jill, and standing atop her to reach the sink.
Palin posted the photos on her Facebook page Saturday — along with a message to PETA that read, in part:
"Chill. At least Trig didn't eat the dog.
"Hey, by the way, remember your "Woman of the Year", Ellen DeGeneres? Did you get all wee-wee'd up when she posted this sweet picture?
"Did you go as crazy when your heroic Man-of-Your-Lifetime, Barack Obama, revealed he actually enjoyed eating dead dog meat?
"Aren't you the double-standard radicals always opposing Alaska's Iditarod – the Last Great Race honoring dogs who are born to run in wide open spaces, while some of your pets 'thrive' in a concrete jungle where they're allowed outdoors to breathe and pee maybe once a day?
Aren't you the same herd that opposes our commercial fishing jobs, claiming I encourage slaying and consuming wild, organic healthy protein sources called fish'? (I do.)"
Palin told Today that, in the case of her son, there was nothing wrong with standing on a dog.
"In this case yes, because Trig's service dog is a strong, trained dog who does really, really love his best buddy Trig, and they put up with each other, and there was no harm at all to this dog."
In her post, Palin wrote, "May 2015 see every stumbling block turned into a stepping stone on the path forward. Trig just reminded me. He, determined to help wash dishes with an oblivious mama not acknowledging his signs for 'up!', found me and a lazy dog blocking his way. He made his stepping stone."
She questioned why her photos are drawing criticism when a similar photo, posted on Facebook by Ellen DeGeneres, who has been honored by PETA, led to little uproar, and hundreds of thousands of 'likes.'
"I thought, absolutely hypocritical double standard, as usual, applied to, I don't know, perhaps a constitutional conservative," Palin told the Today show's Savannah Guthrie.
"PETA simply believes that people shouldn't step on dogs," PETA president Ingrid Newkirk said in a statement.
"It's odd that anyone — let alone a mother — would find it appropriate to post such a thing, with no apparent sympathy for the dog in the photo," the group said.
We'd have to side with PETA on this one. I doubt you could find a veterinarian (outside of Alaska) that thinks children standing on dogs is acceptable — even among those who, like Palin, think animals were put on earth solely for mankind's use.
That she chose to run for the camera rather than rectify the situation speaks volumes.

Micropolis: Director Michel Gondry Takes on Bronx Teens
Director Michel Gondry has worked with Bjork, Kanye West and Radiohead, as well as A-list actors like Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet, but for his latest project, "The We and the I," he opted to cast a bunch of non-actors: regular kids living in the Bronx.
"I think it would've been really terrifying for me to be surrounded by 40 professional acting teenagers."
The movie, set on a crowded MTA bus, zeroes in on a bunch of high-schoolers making their way home on the last day of school. Unlike his earlier film, the dreamlike "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," this movie sticks closer to reality. At times his characters reveal themselves to each other, but they're also capable of humiliating one another, and older passengers. The movie, he said, was drawn from his own life.
"I actually experienced it many times," said Gondry, "where you see a big group of teenagers jumping in the train or in the bus, and you wish they'd picked another car. Either you're gonna block your ears, or you can listen to them and see what's going on."
Click the audio link above to listen to Arun's latest Micropolis, including Gondry's thoughts on why he chose the Bronx, and what he thinks about the cult classic film "The Warriors."

Knoxville Visitors Center gets more free parking
Starting Tuesday, motorists will have more available parking spaces at the Knoxville Visitors Center, thanks to a move by Visit Knoxville.
At the July 10 meeting, the board of the Knoxville Tourism and Sports Corp. officially changed its name to the Knoxville Convention and Visitors Bureau doing business as Visit Knoxville. On Tuesday, President Kim Bumpas unveiled the organization's new logo and announced employee parking spaces were being eliminated to create more visitor parking.
"We've worked diligently to revamp our parking lot. There will be two-hour parking. That gives us an opportunity to capture information from visitors," she said. "Now we'll be able to quantify that information."
Bumpas said the new name Visit Knoxville makes finding Knoxville visitor information easier.
"Visit Knoxville instantly identifies our industry and business," Bumpas said.
The logo was developed in partnership with the Tombras Group.
"There was no monetary exchange. They are a homegrown company who saw a way to contribute," she said. "Where this logo can go, it will evolve. When you start focusing on branding and community dialogue, we can evolve this logo to different looks."
These moves come as Visit Knoxville vies to win the contract to represent Knoxville and Knox County's tourism efforts.
The request for proposals period is open through Aug. 16, at which point the Knox County purchasing office will open the submitted applications for the contract.
The Knoxville Convention and Visitors Bureau is expected to bid on the contract — now valued at $3.2 million. Bumpas said the changes are not related to the RFP process.
"I think for us, this is something we needed to do for this organization. While we respect the process the city and county are undertaking, this is something we would have done regardless," Bumpas said. "It's the right thing for the organization."The organizations former President and CEO Gloria Ray retired earlier this year in the face of intense scrutiny over a compensation package that exceeded $400,000, including bonuses.

When an emergency strikes, Doctors Without Borders/Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF's) aid workers are often the first to respond and in many contexts they are the only providers of healthcare. By supporting MSF's Emergency Relief Fund (ERF), you will help our response to emergencies around the world.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
The recent typhoon in the Philippines highlights just how quickly things can change--and how critical your support of MSF's emergency response programs is.
How will this project solve this problem?
The fund enables MSF to launch an emergency program based entirely on the needs of the people caught in crisis. MSF programs supported by the ERF serve victims of natural and man-made disasters where little to no healthcare services are available.
Potential Long Term Impact
The ERF allocates funds to help MSF teams respond to emergencies around the world, whether or not they attract attention from the media or garner contributions from donors. By supporting the ERF, you will help our teams respond as quickly as possible when disaster strikes.
Funding Information
Total Funding Received to Date: $67,601
Remaining Goal to be Funded: $22,399
Total Funding Goal: $90,000

^GSPC is a price index, not a total return index, so it does not include dividends. SPY is an ETF that holds the underlying stocks. When it receives a dividend it keeps it in a cash account (which of course affects the NAV and market value of SPY shares) until the end of the quarter. At that time (on the 3d friday of Mar Jun Sep or Dec) it will pay out the ...
There are plenty of sites you can get this information from. etfdb.com and etf.com are two of the bigger ones. See this for an example: http://etfdb.com/etfdb-category/europe-equities/ http://etfdb.com/tool/etf-stock-exposure-tool/
Firstly, Volume doesn't equal movement. The best thing is to look at what it represents. SHV is the iShares Short Treasury Bond ETF. This means it tracks short-term treasury bonds. Many forms of balanced portfolios require some portion of funds in bonds. This ETV is an easy vehicle to get fractional exposure to bonds. As far as "has not moved much" is ...
I don't have much experience in the matter, but I've been doing some related literature research recently and I think these links can be helpful: A rather recent study from CME A (possible a bit biased) report by BlackRock A report by Lyxor (asset manager affialiated to Societe Generale)
Many funds, that manage ETFs provide this on their webpages. E.g. SDPR (SPY, XL* family) has is in "NAV history" xls file on https://www.spdrs.com/product/fund.seam?ticker=SPY
Model them individualy and as a group. When you model them as a group you are essentially building a stock index that you can compare the performance of individual stocks to and can then calculate a subgroup beta for each stock. You can also calculate a beta coefficient for the group as a whole to the wider market. Since I assume that you are modeling them ...
I'd question the assertion in your question, what proof do you have that leveraged ETFs must go to zero? A plausible price pattern can easily be constructed that leads to a leveraged ETF that climbs forever. That same leveraged portfolio would climb forever as well.
The current contract value is roughly 30k euros. The bidask spread is 1 tick, which equals 10 euros. Lets say you buy the contract and roll 3 times a year and then liquidate your position at expiry. You will hence pay 1 full bidask spread + 3 rolls, which if done via spreads with market orders, are equal to 1 tick each, hence you will pay 40 euros on bidasks ...
ETNs are senior, unsecured and unsubordinated debt securities issued by an underwriter. When you buy an ETN you are essentially lending money to the issuer in exchange for exposure to an index minus some basis points(management fees). As with most debt instruments, if the issuer defaults, you already assumed the credit risk. As for the question of why ETNs ...
I am not too knowledgeable with ETCs but here are some differences between ETFs & ETNs. ETFs emerged from the concept of buying "baskets" of stocks (similar to mutual funds) & became popular because they were cheaper than mutual funds. ETNs just as their name implies are Notes. They are similar to ETFs in the form of representing baskets of stocks ...
The umbrella term is Exchange Traded Product or ETP, so your sentence would become "The fund invests in ETPs". For the second question a simple way of looking at it is, a ETN would have credit risk with the issuer, where an ETC would not.

As of Monday, May 12, 2014
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
I want to express my sincere gratitude to the staff at Phoebe Putney Hospital. I wish I could remember all the names, but I can't. So I apologize to those I cannot name. Jamie and Lala on the eighth floor; Liberty and John on the sixth. The operating room staff and all the support personal I encountered. Thank you for an outstanding job in handling my nine-day stay.
I met not one individual I could find anything to complain about. The doctors were excellent and took the time to explain things to me, so that I understood what they were doing and why they were doing it. The PA's that visited and actually treated me as a cared-for patient, not just another case. They all tried to brighten my day somewhat with every visit, even if it was for "just one little stick."
I have never been treated better, but then again, I have tried to avoid hospitals. I will probably complain when the bill comes, as we are all prone to do, but I will still have a smile on my face when I remember these folks. Especially realizing I was just one among many. So, thank you doctors, nurses, PA's, CNAs, lab folks, transporters, janitors and food service people. They made a difficult time for me oh so much better than it might have been.
