Historical Traveler Reviews Grand Hyatt Muscat
Grand Hyatt - exceeded expectations
We stayed for 6 nights (except for a memorable desert sojourn in the Wahiba Sands half way through). Arrived at around 8am the first morning and room was not expected to be ready until 1pm. However we were invited to a buffet breakfast in the Regency lounge despite not having spent the previous night there - a nice touch. We happily stayed by the pool which we felt was the best compared to the Chedi and Al Bustan hotels which we visited later in the week. No problem with getting 3 sunloungers together at any time of day.
We had an executive suite with 2 rooms, one for my wife and I, and an extra bed in the other room for our 14 year old son. The suite was extremely spacious, and very convenient for the 3 of us.
Buffet breakfast arrangement was very amenable, and the whole ambience of the place, and the helpfulness and friendliness of most of the staff, was quite impressive.
Mokha Cafe and Marjan pool-side restaurant were OK, but expensive. The convenient position of the hotel made it quite easy to venture out by car or taxi to experience some other places to eat. Try to get a taxi a little bit away from the front of the hotel - it can cost much less than the standard fare offered, after a bit of haggling.
The hotel, and the week's holiday in Oman, far exceeded expectations.
Does not deserve to be called Grand
Overall just 3 positives to mention : complimentary room upgrade (for 2 adults and 2 kids), fun pool for babies and kids and big promenade in front of the hotel adjoining the beach - great for walks with prams.
In general the experience was negative for the amount of money spent.
The service in the restaurants was appalling, ranging from not understanding basic English (like is the fish fresh) to bringing the wrong starter and the wrong bill. To top the bill, the food was extremely average, unrefined and a complete rip off.
The pool area was infected by the "German syndrome of reserving loungers at 6:00 with a towel and a newspaper" but then not showing until lunch.
The hotel was totally incapable of coping with crowds - during the morning breakfast rush, it was hard to get a table on the terrace and the pool area is too small to have a relaxed 5 star feeling.
The decor of the hotel is supremely fake and over the top. A real crime in comparison with The Chedi and the Al Bustan.
We would never return to the Grand Hyatt despite the room upgrade.
The Al Bustan has a superb location and impressive grounds to relax in, but the rooms will be upgraded in 2006 in time for the 2006 GCC meeting. The coastline around the Al Bustan is fantastic and needs a visit.
The Chedi is a beautiful piece of art, but not frequented by families with children.
Oman is a great destination but needs to jack up its customer service levels if tourism is to pick up and/or to remain elitist.
Up and coming destination
Stayed for 6 nights in Grand Hyatt at Easter....Overall the hotel is beautiful..rooms are large and well maintained. The staff are extremely friendly and hospitable. I think the comments of the previous two entries sum up this hotel regarding the sun beds and pool area although I think this is being addressed by hotel management as I think many people complained also, to give them the benefit of the doubt, it was Easter!. The food in all restaurants is good especially the Roof Top Terrace very relaxing and value for money. The food in their exclusive Tuscany Restaurant was for us just average although the service, presentation, attention to detail and ambience was first class. The beach restaurant (Marjan) was slightly haphazard although again I think because of Easter they was understaffed.. food there was good although a bit of a limited menu. Did not eat there in the evening but other people recommended it... of course it took on a different theme & menu in the evening with a guitarist.
We hired a taxi driver at the hotel for 5 hours and went on a tour of Old Muscat we took in some forts and the Grand Mosque which is highly recommended. For ladies they have to have arms, legs and head covered so go prepared. We also took a Wadi Dash tour which was US$195 per 4wheel drive not per person and not really worth the money. albeit we did see some of the country and some local villages. We also visited the Al Bustan Hotel. A must!! the grounds and beach area are stunning. We also ate in The Chedi Hotel booked via our hotel. Another worthwhile visit beautiful surroundings and food first class.
Pros and cons at Grand Hyatt
Grand Hyatt was recommended by our travel agent, unfortunately.
Rooms are very nice, big, modern, clean. Decor in lobby spectacular. Tennis courts nice, but a 5 min walk down the road
Downsides: concierge pretty clueless re tips and advice; Marjan Asian restaurant absolutely hopeless from a service point of view on 3 occasions; main buffet restaurant OK but gets tiresome; pool/garden area quite overcrowded and be prepared to sharpen your incisors and get up at 6:30 a.m. if you want a free lounge chair next to the pool...
My local friends tell me that Interconti much better for kids due to big yard, even though the rooms are long in the tooth, and Al Bustan overall better.
The Grand Hyatt is OK in a pinch but I wouldN't come back to this hotel in Oman if i had a choice.
Fab Hotel, Unusual Destination
Stayed at the Grand Hyatt for a week in early March with my husband and 18 month old son and had a great time. The hotel is very luxurious and opulent; rooms are spacious and of a high standard.
All four restaurants are great, especially Club Safari where you have dinner on the roof top terrace (soup/salad, steak, dessert and unlimited drinks for approx �20pp).
The grounds are small but well maintained. The pools are fab as they are the warmest we have ever swam in (both climate controlled) so that my toddler could spend hours on end sitting in the kids' pool (which also has some useful shade). Interesting features such as lazy river and waterfalls in main pool. I do agree with the previous review in that the pool area was packed on Thursday and Friday with ex pats (lovely and quiet all other days) and also a British Navy ship had docked in Muscat for a few days and lots of the crew were given day passes, so it was very busy.
Getting out & about in the country is well worth while; we hired a 4 wheel drive (not bad value- the Avis office representative in the hotel was absolutely hopeless and told us that cars were available even when they weren't "because she had been told just to say yes to everything"!). We went to Wadi Shab and walked the length of the wadi (about 45mins each way), well worth it as the scenery is beautiful and gets better the further up the wadi you go. The east coast north of Wadi Shab has some gorgeous white sand beaches, especially good is Fins (Fans?) beach.
There isn't a lot in Muscat itself but a walk along the Corniche at sunset is nice.
The beach at the Grand Hyatt was disappointing; the sea looked dirty and the sand wasn't that well maintained. All the beaches there are public, and in the late afternoon it fills up with end to end makeshift football pitches as the locals come out to play!
Overall I would definitely recommend Muscat, especially for a winter week with guaranteed sunshine only 7 hours from the UK, and especially the Grand Hyatt. It was better than expected for kids, though their main clientele are business travellers.
Loved the 4WD tours
Great hotel, the Grand Hyatt, but hopelessly unhelpful in telling us about the fantastic adventure touring to be had in Oman. We had the best holiday of our lives! Thank goodness we met Yousuf and Khalid, locals who took us to the places they go themselves with their friends - beautiful little hidden coves with mangroves and brilliant snorkelling, drove us (in brand new 4WD vehicles) to the most amazing crystal clear rock pool swims - 2 waterfalls in the last cave!- and also took us camping in the desert to an authentic Beduoin family living off camels and goats in the middle of nowhere! We stayed the night in a palm frond hut - the guy whose hut we slept in happily slept outside on a mat! The camels came in the afternoon to be fed by the old Bedoiun lady. She was a brilliant cook with hardly any ingredients. We found out she has never visited a doctor or hospital in her life.! We went on incredible mountain drives along the tops of huge chasms up to 3000 metres high then bumped along rocky river beds that we had looked down into before. None of the hotels seem to have a clue about telling visitors what to do outside of the hotel. Yousuf -----and Khalid ------
Nice but
Great hotel, great service, great food... but the pool and grounds felt a little cramped.
Top Class
Stayed 1 week on holiday Feb 2005. Super spacious rooms with excellent bathrooms and mostly with partial sea views (no need to upgrade). Excellent lunch / dinner food and beverage operation in all four restaurants. Breakfast service somewhat slow by comparison with less experienced staff.
Welcoming, warm staff, obviously well managed and motivated. Provided us an early check in and late check out without hesitation. Very much a successful busy business hotel 1st, with good resort facilities on a relatively small plot. However sun loungers always available, both by the pool and on the small private area of the beach. Beach soft sand, huge, and mostly empty, with clean warm sea.
Some aircraft noise, although much less than the Chedi.
It is very much the centre of affluent Muscat society with numerous important govt. and private functions which sometimes take over the restaurants and garden areas. We felt this added to the atmosphere, but bustle might not suit everyone.
Like other Muscat hotels, it is expensive, but quality is good.
Opulent foyer and design quite something, if a little over the top!
Try their Tuscany Restaurant for top class Italian and Safari Grill for great steaks and value as all drinks are included.
Would certainly stay again.
Oman is top
Grand Hyatt Muscat really is the best. Luxurious rooms and the lobby is just as magnificent.
Safari Club has great live music. If you're heading to Muscat it really is the place to stay. Had nothing to fault. Felt like we were in heaven! The food in the restaurants is top notch too, had a meal in Tuscany and it's the best Italian food I have ever had.
5 Start Grand
Muscat Grand Hyatt is everything its name suggests... GRAND and more. Walk into the lobby and you feel like being in a very posh dream...
The arabic ambiance permeats the whole atmosphere.... bringing out the best arabian culture has to offer and much more. Everything in the hotel seems to radiate with elegance.. much like the city of Muscat itself.
The best time to arrive at the hotel is at night. Light effects are strategically placed around the hotel giving it a very mysterious yet enticing facade... and you can't wait to enter and wander out of curiousity.
For clubbing.. the Copacabana is tops in Muscat when it comes to dancing the night away and the Club Safari is definitely not to be missed if you are into live bands.
Oman is the friendliest arabic country and Hyatt Muscat represents what is the best and most beautiful about this city.
Hyatt, Muscat.. simply 5 Star GRAND!!!

Summer TV is No Longer Just About Re-runs
A town in Maine is about to find itself cut off from the rest of the world by an invisible dome. Well, at least on TV. "Under the Dome" is a CBS mini-series that starts next Monday.
The show is based on a Stephen King novel and is just one in a series of programs opening on television this summer. And according to Mike Hale, television critic for the New York Times, that is proof that the summer is now a season for serious TV.
"The networks have discovered that if they just don't play re-runs, and don't just dump game shows in the summer, that they can actually attract some viewers," he said. "This had been proven over the last five to ten years by the cable networks and now the big four networks are starting to catch on to that."
Hale highlights several shows this summer, including Devious Maids, a show about an unusually attractive group of Beverly Hills domestics (Lifetime, June 23rd), Broadchurch, a contemporary murder mystery set in a seaside resort was a hit in Britain (BBC America, August 7th), and Orange is the New Black, a Netflix dark comedy about a Brooklyn woman sentenced to a year in federal prison (Netflix, July 11th).

Despite being colorblind, it never really stop me from painting and drawing. Most of my artwork can be view in my Deviantart or Pixiv. Here is a list of some of my personal favourite.
Fun and creative stuff that I worked on recently. Click on the link to read more about them.
Did another small Cocos2D JS coding project last week. This time doing the classic pong game. The game itself can be more optimize and written in less number of codes, but since I am just getting myself familiar with Cocos2D JS framework, so that is not really a priority at the moment.
Was trying to use procedural texture to render an anime style sky/cloud few days ago. I will share a bit on what I have figure out in this blog entry.
Did some simple test with Cocos2D JS / HTML5 framework. Instead of doing a typical hello world, which is already provided as sample file. I try to do some basic tweening with cocos2D (Action). There is a bit different on how tweening is done compare with ActionScript/Greensock Tweenlite/createJS, but it is not too hard to pickup.
Read more…
I try a different method for rendering anime style hair specular. Instead of doing it with material or shader, I model them and render it with masking. I think the result look a lot better, since the shape are from the model (with no shade material). More over, I can also rig and animate them.
This is a follow up post on my other tutorial "how to paint light ray with photoshop". But instead of painting them manually, we will be using procedural cloud texture and radial zoom blur only. This can be done with Photoshop, AfterEffects or Blender3D.
Lots of peoples had been asking on how I paint anime style trees in my landscape painting. To be honest, I am still not really good in this area, but here is a simple write up on my workflow, and what I had notice from observing trees painting in anime.
Few weeks ago, I did a quick test on Akiyoshi's leaf wave optical illusion by doing some simple scripting (AS3 Flash). I want to know if a rotating pattern will cause more nausea to the viewer. It turn out that the faster animation will stop the optical illusion effect. Anyway, I spend more time on the script itself over last few weeks and did this simple "optical illusion editor" which you can use the generate your own optical art.
Beside non photo realistic rendering (NPR), I love realistic render too. But I was always limit by my old PC processing power and I am not the type of person that would wait few hours for a render to be complete. Anyway, here are some blender3d cycles render which I did recently. Comparing these renders with the first batch of my blender cycles artwork. I think I have level up quite a bit.
Another test on using Blender 3D to render NPR 2D anime scene. this time I using 3D for 2D style cityscape.
Saw a photo of optical glass sculpture with nice refraction/caustic within the glass body last week. So I did some quick experiment trying to replicate the effect in 3D.
Model and render some candy yesterday with Blender3D (cycles render). It seem that a lot of peoples are interest with the candy shader. So I have written a bit on this sweet shader (pun intended).
I always have strong interest in utilizing 3D to render a 2D painterly anime style background. Probably due to the re-usability of 3D assets. Here are some of my Blender3D test to render 2D foliage. The main objective is to avoid the use of texture plane and uv projection mapping method, which I am pretty sure it will give a 2D look easily at the cost of more limited camera movement in the 3D space.
One quick way to add light ray or sun beam to your painting is to use the "radial zoom blur" filter, which is available in most painting software.
One of the most ask question I receive for Blender3D NPR anime character are "How to render eyebrow on top of everything (hair) for anime character?". I achieve this by using render layer and mask. Most probably there are other ways too.
This is a follow up for my old anime cloud tutorial. Just adding one more extra step, smudge the cloud. Smudging the edge of painted cloud does add a bit to the painting, it sort of give a feeling that wind are slowly blowing the cloud.

Michelle Obama: 'hard choices' needed on guns - 0 Comments
CHICAGO — Michelle Obama says people worried about youth gun violence have to do more than simply tell children they care about the problem and then wind up "going to these funerals and mourning with these kids when there's still work to do."
"They're looking to us to make the hard choices for them," the first lady said Thursday. She suggested there are better ways for her to help than becoming publicly involved in Congress' debate over gun laws that the president seeks.

IRVINE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/07/13 -- Paragon Software Group (PSG), a leader in data storage, backup and recovery, announced the launch of its new product offering, Paragon StarWind iSCSI SAN & NAS. Delivered in conjunction with Massachusetts-based technology partner, StarWind Software, this new software solution is a storage hypervisor that turns any industry-standard Windows server into a reliable, fault-tolerant, and unified SAN and NAS, while utilizing common "off the shelf" or existing storage devices and network infrastructure. Offering savings of up to 90 percent, iSCSI SAN & NAS is a powerful alternative to traditional High Availability (HA) products that rely on costly, proprietary, hardware-based HA architectures.
The product offers several deployment options including a three-node HA structure designed to eliminate a single point of failure. The product's configurations are double fault tolerant (failure of 2 out of 3 storage nodes) resulting in 99.999% uptime. As a flexible and easy-to-manage solution, any IT administrator familiar with Windows servers can configure and deploy the Paragon StarWind iSCSI SAN & NAS solution in a matter of minutes.
"We've leveraged over 20 years of expertise in the storage and data management space and combined that with the proven technology from StarWind Software to bring a truly innovative high availability, enterprise-class storage product to our customer and reseller community," said Tom Fedro, president of Paragon Software Group. "Our unique software approach delivers a measurable five '9's' in up-time performance while eliminating the need for expensive, proprietary hardware, empowering new market segments to embrace the high availability model."
Key features include:
- Install the solution and configure a new SAN in minutes
- Centralize site-wide iSCSI storage provisioning via the Paragon Management Console
- Achieve cost-effective HA processing with instantaneous failover and recovery
- Protect data using HA, RAID-1 mirroring, automated snapshots, and replication
- Consolidate file and block level data, unifying SAN and NAS storage to simplify configuration, management, and maintenance
- Use NAS to create iSCSI targets and avoid the purchase of new hard drives for storage
"We are very pleased to enter into co-branding agreement with Paragon Software Group who has the great authority and worldwide recognition in the data storage market," said Artem Berman, Chief Executive Officer of StarWind Software. "We are confident that this new relationship will provide StarWind with an opportunity to maintain and increase its presence in the United States. Paragon Software Group is a team of professionals with 20 years experience in the marketplace and we are going to learn from their experience."
Paragon StarWind iSCSI SAN & NAS enables an N+1 configuration that allows for building an on-site two or three-node HA cluster with off-site replication. The built-in WAN replication feature assists in the creation of a disaster recovery site that can be located miles away from the main datacenter. The WAN acceleration technology is based on deduplication, snapshots, and compression, in which their combined power ensures 50x-100x reduction of transmitted data and allows for the use of slower WAN connections.

New Year: resolutions and eulogiesHappy 2013! I hope everyone started off the year with a bang! * o*/More Like This
I wanted to ramble a bit about my 2012. I feel like there were a lot of pivoting points last year that changed up my life a bit (for lack of a better statement, please bear with my cheesiness ; a;;; ).
2011 - 2012 I was a junior in high school. Half way through my third year and I was working on the school's spring production of Phantom of the Opera--because I was enrolled in the Technical Theater course, so I was working costumes backstage instead of actually acting (thankfully.) Being in technical theater forced me to stay after school and during weekends for a grade, giving me a very good reason to actually start a social life as opposed to going home right away and "studying"--//CHOKES :iconlazycryplz:
My dad was grumpy, but since it was for a grade he had to let me get out of the house or live in the shame of a daughter who got an F on her report card. Of course I had to do a butt load of work, but being out of th

We just moved to TN and have been settling in, and getting jobs to help the transitioning of "homes" move along more smoothly. We wont be attending San Japan this year, much to our dismay. We hope to attend a con in TN and meet new people since we don't know anyone here except family and family friends (mostly people who know our mom).
Cos-plans for the rest of the year are: ("couples" cosplay with :iconlonestardove: )

And possible some yaoi cosplay with :iconballetgala: aka a huge nerd.
I will hopefully have time soon to take cos-tests and have a photo shoot or two so I can show off some of my older cosplay that I never got any good pictures of.

As I said in my Anime Matsuri Recap, a lot has happened since I said I was coming back. Unfortunately I haven't been able to cosplay, and I won't be able to for the next three months. Why is that you ask? Well allow me to tell you! I will be in Poland for the next three months! I will be visiting family, taking care of some health issues, and going to a language and culture class.
While I am there I will be doing some photography. I'll mostly be making videos, but I'll get as many pictures with my DSLR as possible. Unfortunately my lens is broken. I can still use it for some things, but no quick shots.
I might take some Boy Style Lolita and a costume or two, but I won't have much room in my suitcase. I might take my new Jolteon cosplay if I can fix it up.

After staying up most of the night to finish our cosplays, we headed out to Anime Matsuri in the (now completed minus the gloves) Cheshire Twins! Driving threw downtown is stressful, so I'll skip over that part. We ended up getting some food and then heading to the rally! We played games, talked about the convention, and had a fantastic time. After the rally we made french toast in our hotel room with :iconlonestardove: and :iconfloralninjachan: and exchanged late/early birthday gifts. Let me start off by saying I LOVE tea. Tea is my life blood. AND THEY GOT US AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS TEA! AND MUGS! AND THE THINGS YOU PUT THE TEA LEAVES IN TO MAKE TEA! I JUST. THANK YOU.

'Science … is not so much concerned with truth as it is with consensus. What counts as 'truth' is what scientists can agree to count as truth at any particular moment in time … [Scientists] are not really receptive or not really open-minded to any sorts of criticisms or any sorts of claims that actually are attacking some of the established parts of the research (traditional) paradigm — in this case neo-Darwinism — so it is very difficult for people who are pushing claims that contradict the paradigm to get a hearing. They'll find it difficult to [get] research grants; they'll find it hard to get their research published; they'll, in fact, find it very hard.'
Professor Evelleen Richards, Science Historian, University of NSW, Australia, Lateline, 9 October 1998, Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

VW scandal is raising questions
And how to overcome those barriers

On Aug 13, Zacks Investment Research downgraded drug
development services provider
Covance Inc.
) to a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
Why the Downgrade?
N.J.-based Covance continues to be plagued by a sluggish Early
Development business. In the last reported quarter, the company
reported Early Development revenues of $215 million, down 2.3%
year over year (or down 0.4% on an adjusted basis).
Growth in nutritional chemistry and clinical pharmacology was
offset by pharmaceutical chemistry services and discovery support
services. According to the company, discovery support is an
emerging and fragmented market with a slower-than-expected growth
rate. According to the company, the research products business
has been sluggish historically.
Over the past few quarters, decreasing early-stage research
and development spending by the biopharmaceutical industry has
led to overcapacity in this segment. We believe that factors like
these have affected the company adversely in the recent past.
However, a strong performance by the company's Late-stage
Development neutralized these negative factors. This segment
continues to be the sole growth driver for Covance. In the
reported quarter, net revenue from Late-Stage Development surged
16.9% year over year to $377.7 million. Despite increased
spending on strategic IT projects, the segment witnessed growth
on the back of better-than-expected kit volumes in central
laboratories and Clinical development.
Stocks That Warrant a Look
While we expect Covance to perform in line with its peers and
industry levels in the coming months and advice investors to wait
for a better entry point before accumulating shares. Apart from
Cyberonics Inc.
Affymetrix Inc.
) and
Alere Inc.
) are good buying opportunities. All these three medical device
stocks carry a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).

Hotels in Brac
On a cobblestoned path in the small town of Milna, on Brac Island, the four-bedroom villa has its own pool and a konoba (converted wine cellar).
Its stone façade situated directly on the waterfront, this scenic hotel was once a Baroque fortress belonging to a local aristocratic family. The 32 guest rooms are simply designed with clean-lined wooden furniture, focusing attention on the large windows framing views of the Adriatic.

U.S. Issues Rules to Curb Forms of Telemarketing
By BARNABY J. FEDER
Published: December 19, 2002
The Federal Trade Commission issued proposed rules yesterday restricting telemarketing calls to consumers, including plans for a nationwide registry of people who do not want to receive such sales calls. Telemarketers that phone people on the list would face fines up to $11,000 for each violation.
The new regulations, which have been in preparation for a year, would also restrict how telemarketers use automated calling machines that dial consumers based on calculations of when agents will be free to talk to them.
The technology, which eliminates waits between calls for the marketing agents, results in silence and disconnections if a consumer answers before a marketer is available. The new rules fine marketers if more than 3 percent of calls do not connect the person called directly to an agent, and they require the marketer to play a tape identifying the call if an agent is not available.
The rules also bar telemarketers from disguising the number from which they are calling and limit the ability of marketers to share credit card data. And it forbids marketers from using card data they have on file to place an order if the consumer does not give them the card data again during the call. The rule includes calls where the offer is for services or products that have a free trial period.
The rules will protect consumer privacy in the home and curtail telemarketing fraud, according to Timothy J. Muris, the chairman of the F.T.C.
But he warned that the ''do not call'' registry would take at least seven months to become effective, that consumers in some states might not be part of it right away, and that it would not be set up at all unless Congress approved the agency's proposal to finance the registry with fees raised from telemarketers. Covering the estimated $16 million cost of the registry with funds already appropriated would wreck enforcement of other laws, Mr. Muris said.
He also said his agency expected the Federal Communications Commission to follow through on its proposal to adopt similar rules covering telemarketing by phone companies and other businesses it regulates. Mr. Muris added that the rules would not pre-empt do-not-call registries already set up by many states, but said that nearly all the states were likely to join the national system.
The telemarketing industry's largest trade group, the Direct Marketing Association, said it would oppose the new rules both in court and on Capitol Hill. The association said they violate the free-speech rights of its members and in the long run drive up costs for consumers.
H. Robert Wientzen, president and chief executive of the association, said in a statement, ''While we acknowledge abuses by some telemarketing companies, the proposed F.T.C. list is an inappropriate and unnecessary government intrusion into the private sector marketplace that will increase federal spending and cost jobs.''
Direct marketers made about 104 million calls a day and reported revenue of nearly $300 billion last year, according to the association. Mr. Wientzen said they employ 4.1 million workers, including many students, single parents and former welfare recipients who need flexible hours.
Telemarketers have argued that the federal regulations are unnecessary in part because the industry-supported Telephone Preference Service has effectively eliminated more than 80 percent of the calls to the 7.5 million people who have signed up for that free registry, online at www.thedma.org.
But consumer advocates and privacy experts said the industry's voluntary system lacked good remedies for consumers and was not as widely followed as the industry says.
The new rules contain exemptions for charities, political campaigns and for companies that have done business with the consumers they are calling in the previous 18 months. Nor do they cover telemarketing within the boundaries of a state.
Such loopholes ''will cause confusion and anger for consumers that thought they would be finally left alone,'' said Robert Arkow, founder of an advocacy group called Californians Against Telephone Solicitation.
Mr. Muris of the F.T.C. expressed confidence that the national registry would gain quick Congressional approval. He said that a registry would be set up on a state-by-state basis and that consumers could sign up at no cost by going to commission's Web site (www.ftc.gov/donotcall) or in coming months by phoning a toll-free number.

Customer Reviews
Very disappointing
Way too many ads that often prevent getting back to game without a reload. Upgraded to the paid version in hopes it would avoid that and it never would open. 4 stars to ITunes for making it easy to get a refund for buying a decent game made by a different developer. 5 stars to ITunes if they banish the game from the App Store.
Advertising causes it to be bad
Ok game, but the advertisements are way to frequent and you will click on one since they pop up even after you click x on the ad.
Rating a 2 for ok gameplay, but would be higher if the ads were not as bad. And no I'm not buying a game just to remove ads, instead I just stop playing.
Funny game for kids
Game play is very creative and easy. I think graphics developed, this game really designed for everyone

Zacha's Bay Window Mendocino Heritage Online Museum
Explore the work of the Mendocino Heritage Artists
Mendocino, on the rocky north coast of California, has always been a special place. Those, like Bill Zacha, who are called to Mendocino are transformed by it. In Bill's case, the transformation was mutual.
This site is a memorial to Bill Zacha, a tribute to keep vivid his memory, his life and considerable accomplishments, including his art, the founding of the Mendocino Art Center, and Bill's remarkable influence on the lives of those with whom he came in contact.
Dorr Bothwell knew that everyone who comes to Mendocino has a story; she loved to ask, "And how did YOU come to Mendocino?" In visiting our Online Museum, you too have come to Mendocino.
Zacha's Bay Window showcases the art and shares the stories of six distinguished Mendocino Heritage Artists, Mendocino Art Center founder William Zacha and five others, Bill's friends who came to teach at the Art Center and stayed to make Mendocino their home.
William Zacha - internationally celebrated painter, sculptor and serigrapher
Hilda Pertha - painter, sculptor, designer, serigrapher, collage artist
Dorr Bothwell - renowned painter, pioneer serigrapher and collage artist
Toshi Yoshida - master woodblock print artist
Fran Moyer - nationally acclaimed sculptor, writer and painter
Charles Marchant Stevenson - visionary painter and serigrapher
Virtual galleries for each artist contain a growing archive of works for art lovers and scholars. Explore the art of William Zacha, Hilda Pertha, Dorr Bothwell, Toshi Yoshida, Fran Moyer and Charles Marchant Stevenson.
For an overview of the website, see AN INTRODUCTION TO OUR WEBSITE.
Questions about the Mendocino Heritage Artists, their work, or our archives, should be directed to our archivist.
Zacha's Bay Window Gallery opened in 1958 and for over fifty years represented the very best of Mendocino's Heritage Artists in the historic gallery space at 45110 Main Street, Mendocino, California.
Each of the Zacha's Bay Window artists has a vast body of work, most of which is dispersed in museums and private collections worldwide. In our virtual galleries, we gather historic images of each artist's work for a growing permanent online museum archive for art lovers and scholars.
We would be grateful for digital photos of artwork currently in private collections, also biographical information, archival correspondence, essays and articles, reminiscences and personal photos for our online museum. See, for example, the September 25, 1962 Look magazine article, A YOUNG MAN SAVES AN OLD TOWN.
To share photos, letters, stories or other information about the Mendocino Heritage Artists, please contact our archivist. Please include the artist's name, the medium and dimensions of the work, title and year when known, and full file digital photos when possible.
Questions or personal messages for the family of Bill and Jennie Zacha will be forwarded to them.
News From Our Mendocino Gallery
We are celebrating the publication of a lavishly illustrated book on Dorr Bothwell, Straws in the Wind: An Artist's Life as told to Bruce Levene. Straws in the Wind is the result of historian Bruce Levene's many interviews with Dorr Bothwell in the 1980s. Bruce Levene, a gifted interviewer, is also the book's editor. Levene spent years collecting and studying Bothwell's work in order to choose full color images of the over 200 works of art illustrating the range of Bothwell's work. Dorr Bothwell's keen perception and generous spirit shine as she recounts her extraordinary life in art. A portion of the sales will benefit the Mendocino Art Center and Kelley House Museum in Mendocino.
