Our next meeting will be March 23rd, Saturday, at 6 PM, in Tarpon Springs, 1029 Hamilton Avenue. We have a unique and ambicious agenda. We are going to teach or be taught (depending on your skill leve) how to play "Let It Be," by the Beatles. In the song will be chords, finger picking and two riffs. To say the least, it should be an interesting meeting so BRING YOUR UKULELE. Look forward to seeing all our member there. Geo.
It was great, we had seven people in attendance. Our skill level at the meeting ranged from just buying a ukulele yesterday to 30 years of string instrument background. This diversity enriched the experience for all. After introductions, we discussed ukuleles and specifically those we brought with us. Next, as a group, we tackled the song "Let It Be" by the Beatles. This included learning the complex introduction and two riffs. We also discussed tablature and how to write them. The experienced members of the group added significantly to these discussions. It was clearly a 5 star meeting.
1 · March 24, 2013
All you experts out there join us, you can help us reach our goal of becoming expert ukulele players. Seriously, your input is needed and desired. The song we are going to learn is complicated and we need all the tips and tricks we can get. So plan on being at our next meeting, thanks Geo.

Roger's enhancement techniques are now recognized worldwide and have changed law enforcement's approach to the utilization of facial recognition technology.
The last defendant to be sentenced in the sweeping federal case against the Insane Deuces street gang of Aurora, Ill., was sentenced Thursday to the maximum 20 years in prison after a prosecutor described him as an enforcer who "sent children out to kill other children."
Romel Handley, 25, often shook his head at the defense table as Assistant U.S. Atty. Patrick Pope described him as the leader of the gang's army of "shorties," or younger members who were recruited to commit shootings for the gang in its war against the Latin Kings.
"They preyed on and killed the people and the children of Aurora," Pope said.

Standard Fact Sheet
Expanded Fact Sheet - Institutional Shares
2Q16 Quarterly Letter
The Review and Outlook for period ending September 30, 2016 is not yet available
Shares of Amazon.com, Inc., the world's largest retailer and cloud services provider, rose in Q3 after reporting strong revenue growth and improving margins in its core business. Amazon's other major business segment, Amazon Web Services (AWS), continues to gain traction with enterprise customers, and had another strong quarter of growth. Over time, we expect AWS to be the larger contributor to value creation. The company continues to invest in new and potentially large business segments such as e-finance, business supplies and apparel.
Shares of Alibaba Group Holding Limited, the largest e-commerce company in China, performed well in Q3 following strong quarterly results. Enhanced financial disclosure helped investors to understand better the profitability of the core commerce business and thereby attribute a higher value to it. We expect that mobile monetization will continue to improve through 2016 and beyond as the company invests in new areas such as online grocery and cloud computing.
Shares of Illumina, Inc., the leading provider of DNA sequencing technology to academic and commercial laboratories, contributed to performance in Q3. The company reported financial results that beat Street expectations and reiterated guidance for the year. We continue to believe Illumina has a long runway for growth, driven by increasing adoption of DNA sequencing in clinical markets such as cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment.
Shares of cybersecurity software vendor FireEye, Inc. fell in Q3 on disappointing guidance as new management reset expectations for 2016 in an effort to build a solid base for 2017. We believe management is building a strong foundation for future growth. The organization has been right-sized, mid-market and new subscription products are being launched, and go-to-market partnerships have been fine tuned. FireEye has best-in-class technology and is improving its delivery methodology in products (subscriptions) and go-to-market design.
Shares of PT Sarana Menara Nusantara Tbk., the largest independent owner of wireless telecommunication towers in Indonesia, declined in Q3 as telcos continued to defer network equipment upgrades. We believe that wireless network spending in Indonesia will eventually climb as operators contend with significant growth in wireless data consumption. Over time, we believe Sarana Menara will build a significant number of new towers for these telco tenants and have the opportunity to acquire peer tower companies as well.
When reviewing performance attribution on our portfolio, please be aware that we construct the portfolio from the bottom up, one stock at a time. Each stock is included in the portfolio if it meets our rigorous investment criteria. To help manage risk, we are aware of our sector and security weights, but we do not include a holding to achieve a target sector allocation or to approximate an index. Our exposure to any given sector is purely a result of our stock selection process.
Baron Global Advantage Fund rose 11.08% in the third quarter and outperformed the MSCI ACWI Growth Index by 580 basis points, due to a combination of stock selection and relative sector weights.
On a country basis, stock selection in developed markets contributed the most to relative results, mainly due to outperformance of investments in the U.S., the U.K., and Canada. Significantly larger exposure to outperforming emerging market equities, particularly those in China, also added value.
On a sector basis, Consumer Discretionary and Health Care investments, lack of exposure to the lagging Consumer Staples sector, and meaningfully larger exposure to outperforming internet software & services stocks within Information Technology (IT) added the most value. All five of the Fund's Consumer Discretionary investments lifted relative results, led by internet & direct marketing retail holdings Amazon.com, Inc., Ctrip.com International Ltd., and The Priceline Group, Inc. Amazon was the largest contributor on an absolute basis, while both Ctrip and Priceline benefited from solid quarterly earnings results. Naspers Limited, a South Africa-based internet and media platform operator, and TAL Education Group, a leading Chinese K-12 tutoring company, were the other contributors in the sector. Within Health Care, outperformance of Illumina, Inc. and Aerie Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and lower exposure to this poor performing sector aided relative results. Illumina was the third largest contributor to absolute performance, while shares of Aerie, which is developing a novel set of eye drops to treat glaucoma called Rhopressa/Roclatan, outperformed due to success in recent clinical trials. Health care equipment holding Glaukos Corporation, which is developing products to drain intraocular (eye) fluid to relieve the symptoms of glaucoma and delay/prevent blindness, also added value after the company's shares rose nearly 30% in the quarter.

Time magazine writers this week prove the importance of writing about what you know -- even if what you know is only a cliche.
Reviewing the two new SNL backstage shows, James Poniewozik writes that NBC's president wanted Tina Fey to use "the news setting as a fig leaf for her own experience and encouraged her to write what she knew."
Aaron Sorkin's show also bears some autobiographical traces, says Poniewozik (love typing that name), and so he "is also writing what he knows."
Two pages later, Richard Lacayo opens his review of a new novel thusly: "Alice McDermott is one of those writers who take seriously the injunction to write about what you know."
McDermott should try to get a job at Time.

Writing has always been a constant in my life. It was what got me through high school and continues to act as my escape while I study at university.
Now at twenty one and married (I know, it's nuts), talking about people you've made up in your head isn't commonly regarded as healthy or normal for that matter. Still, I am a strong believer in the truth that normalcy is over rated.
While I am not pursuing a career as an author I am studying costume design and construction at university. Did you expect it to be something conventional? Fabric engineering is fun, dressing people is even more so (as long as you can learn pretty quickly not to have a giggle about it)! My degree is taking me places, to the States mostly and I get to meet a lot of quirky and exciting people. I wonder if I knew, when entering my degree, the bounty of material that lay in store for an aspiring writer?
Anyways, enough about me.
Read. Imagine. Inspire.

text: Thomas Larkin Turner was born in Charlestown, Massachusetts, on August 17, 1812, the son of Larkin Turner, a merchant ship captain, and Sally Gould. After briefly attending Harvard College, he studied privately at Charlestown, Massachusetts, and he accompanied his father on voyages to the East Indies. Turner later became a surveyor, and he lived in Georgia around the 1830s. By 1839, he had returned to Boston, where he worked as a druggist. His medicines included "Turner's Tic-Douloureux, or Universal Neuralgia Pill" and "Lorraine's Vegetable Cathartic Pills." Turner married Elizabeth Devina Whiton of Hingham, Massachusetts, the daughter of Royal Whiton (February 22, 1792-August 18, 1877) and Esther Cleverly (1787-April 19, 1867), on April 3, 1843. After her death in 1879, he married Sarah Ann Loomis (1830-1896) of Braintree, Vermont, on July 8, 1881. T. Larkin Turner died on April 10, 1897.

celebration in Buddhist cultures
New Year's festivals demonstrate Buddhism's ability to co-opt preexisting local traditions. On the occasion of the New Year, images of the Buddha in some countries are taken in procession through the streets. Worshipers visit Buddhist sanctuaries and circumambulate a stupa or a sacred image, and monks are given food and other gifts. One of the most remarkable examples of the absorption of a...

Skip to comments.Kerry, Edwards Tout Hair-Based Platform
Posted on 07/07/2004 12:27:03 PM PDT by kevkrom
CLEVELAND (NNN) -- Following up previous comments where presumptive Democrat nominee John Kerry (D-MA) stated about himself and newly-chosen running mate John Edwards (D-NC), "we've got better vision, better ideas, real plans, we've got a better sense of what's happening to America and we've got better hair," Kerry and Edwards joined together to discuss their opinion that superior hair would have prevented the 9/11 terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington D.C.
"George Bush has mediocre hair," began Edwards, "and Dick Cheney hardly even has hair. It's obvious that John Kerry and I hold a significant hair advantage in this race."
Kerry followed up with the central argument of the Kerry/Edwards hair-based platform. "We all know that the hair makes the man... good hair projects an image of leadership and unwavering cowering to the will of the United Nations. With that kind of leadership -- leadership obviously lacking in the Bush regime -- terrorists would never have dared strike the United States."
When reminded that good-haired Bill Clinton's administration was also a target of terrorist attacks, including attacks on US soil, Edwards replied that "while President Clinton had very nice hair, Al Gore's hair was, to put it bluntly, a total disaster."
"Fake," added Kerry. "And fake is something the Kerry/Edwards ticket knows better than anyone."
Vote for what's on top of our heads. Not for what's inside...
You jokers may have hair but give the voter a reason to vote for you.Hair won't do it.
I mean is this for real?
We are in a in a fight with terrorism and this is what these guys are offering to people.
Glad to know I brightened at least one person's day with this one... :)
What's not satire is Kerry saying today "...and we have better hair."
I heard it and couldn't believe he said it!
"we've got better vision, better ideas, real plans, we've got a better sense of what's happening to America and we've got better hair,"
But we've got the better women ;-)
The original comment (the one hyperlinked in the "article" above) is real, the rest is the product of a deranged imagination.
Give me a head with hair,,,,long beautiful hair,,,,shining, streaming.....flaxen, waxen,,,
Now that Kerry cut I did hear on the snooze at the top of the hour. But the Presidents response to the reporter about Cheney? We won't hear that.
They have hair, we have the cajones.. Carry'em in a bucket big ones.
At first it was simply quoted as stated.....but then the spinning began.
Nothing can change the truth, however.
BTW... any of y'all are free to distribute this one as you see fit.
You can make fun of their hair, but I spoke to a Democrat who thinks it's a good ticket. Some people fall for looks, and they think Edwards is good-looking.
I'm undecided whether Bush can win, even though I want him to. He's coming to a university near me on Friday, and my county Republican committee said she only got 25 tickets to hand out. I wanted to go, but even the local newspaper says they don't have info as to how to get a ticket.
I read this article on Reuters today. It was written by Patricia Wilson.
Oh, good news, but I on the other post I said that it won't make the evening news. But I won't be watching, so I'll never know..... Thanks for the update.
That might be a good sign -- if tickets are that hard to come by, the event must be very popular, no?
Yes, the quote from Wilson's article (linked above) inspired me to write this piece.
NO, IMO, they haven't been distributed. Unless, they are going to local politicians. No one on the FR PA board has received one of these tickets.
I guess both Johns have been grooming for the job.
"After 9/11 - CUTE don't Cut It" =
...LAURA INGRAM, Talk Radio Network
Young TED KENNEDY in Vietnam-1965
I prefer bald men with brains.
And he'll never hear the end of it either...ROFL!!!
My 13 yr old thought it was a totally stupid comment, I guess she doesn't like his hair!
You call your local republican office and ask if there are any tickets left, I was offered some for the York rally but I would have to take off from work.
According to the local newspaper they are expection 10,000 people.
New tagline assigned about 6 minutes before reading your hilarious post.
On a serious note, would you trust a man who spends more on his hair than his wife does, or the man who goes to the barber for a $15 college cut and does no more than wash and comb it in the morning? The former needs to consider his priorities.
Thanks for the kind review... it's been a while since I had "the muse" to write a satire piece, but this one just kind of wrote itself.

Gee, What a fabulous platform.

By analyzing the functional role of adenosine receptor heteromers, we review a series of new concepts that should modify our classical views of neurotransmission in the central nervous system (CNS). Neurotransmitter receptors cannot be considered as single functional units anymore. Heteromerization of neurotransmitter receptors confers functional entities that possess different biochemical characteristics with respect to the individual components of the heteromer. Some of these characteristics can be used as a "biochemical fingerprint" to identify neurotransmitter receptor heteromers in the CNS. This is exemplified by changes in binding characteristics that are dependent on coactivation of the receptor units of different adenosine receptor heteromers. Neurotransmitter receptor heteromers can act as "processors" of computations that modulate cell signaling, sometimes critically involved in the control of pre- and postsynaptic neurotransmission. For instance, the adenosine A1-A2A receptor heteromer acts as a concentration-dependent switch that controls striatal glutamatergic neurotransmission. Neurotransmitter receptor heteromers play a particularly important integrative role in the "local module" (the minimal portion of one or more neurons and/or one or more glial cells that operates as an independent integrative unit), where they act as processors mediating computations that convey information from diverse volume-transmitted signals. For instance, the adenosine A2A-dopamine D2 receptor heteromers work as integrators of two different neurotransmitters in the striatal spine module.

Football in Bolens' plans post-South
The Bolens' run at Parkersburg South will soon come to a close, but both Jon and Tyler expect to be back on a football field in the not-so-distant future,
That's now former South head football coach Jon Bolen and his high-school senior son Tyler, Patriot quarterback and basketball player, a starting 6-2 guard.
In Jon's six years leading the South grid program. the Patriots went 33-31, making it into the Class AAA playoffs three times, but not this past season although finishing at 6-4.
In 2011, the Patriots were 7-5, winning a playoff game for the first time since they captured the state championship in 2003.
Bolen coached a number of places in the Mid-Ohio Valley over the last 14 years, with head coaching stops at Belpre and then at Warren before landing the job at South for the 2007 season.
"That first year, we faced a killer schedule," said Jon, as his initial South squad went winless at 0-10. But the next year, the Patriots made the playoffs in posting an 8-3 mark.
From Sistersville originally, Jon spent 11 years in Florida coaching high school football before returning to the Mid-Ohio Valley.
When I did the preview story on one of Jon's Belpre teams for our annual Pigskin Preview is when I first saw Tyler – at his dad's side at football practice at age 4 or 5. Their bond so fascinated me that I did a feature story on the two of them and their close relationship.
"Remember when I first met you, Tyler was a little rugrat," said Jon. "Now look at him, about 6-3 and 190 pounds."
Although now 60, Jon wants to continue coaching football. "I'm pretty healthy; I had a complete physical recently and feel great," he said.
And he's "about 99.9 percent sure" he will be heading back to the Sunshine State for his next coaching job.
In fact, just last month, he talked with a high school in Orlando and another in St. Augustine about their football head coaching positions
"But you never know, I could end up taking a job anywhere," said Jon. "I don't have to go anywhere, so it's nice. And Tyler is going to be in college anyway."
Various college football programs are interested in Tyler, including WVU, said his dad, as "a preferred walk-on" after starting at QB for three years at South. "He had a pretty good senior season," said Jon, passing for 1,442 yards with 10 touchdown tosses.
Plus, a couple FCS schools are "looking at him," said Jon, "and then, of course, the (West Virginia) conference schools."
"One thing about Tyler," said Jon. "He's awfully smart about football. He amazes me with his knowledge of the game. I think he'd be a fantastic coach."
Jon felt he was "pretty lucky" to end up at South, and "coaching your son is pretty rewarding. But I know it was tough on him sometimes, because I never gave the kid a break. On the field, he was just one of the 11 guys out there – not the son of the head coach. Honestly, I was on him just as tough or tougher than anybody else."
Jon admitted, though, that "not many know how hard it is to be a coach's son. But Tyler really liked it at South; it was great for him. I remember like it was yesterday when he first started on varsity his sophomore year, but the time goes by so fast."
And when Bolen stated, "If I could've asked God for what kind of son I wanted, I couldn't have asked for a better one than Tyler," he began choking up and getting teary-eyed.
For Tyler, playing for his dad at South was "a lot of fun; we had a lot of great memories together.
"Growing up, you kind of imagine you might have a chance of playing for him someday, but it was a great experience to be able to finally get to play for him, because I never really thought that we'd both be here at South."
Of course, once Tyler was the quarterback at Edison Middle School and Jon was the head coach at South, the next step of a father-son football combo at PSHS was inevitable.
"He was tough on me sometimes," said Tyler, "but it paid off believing in him, because he knows what he's talking about."
They both, though, know too what the other is thinking more often than not. To show how well father and son know each other, Tyler related that "over the last three years, a lot of times, I knew what play my dad was going to call before he sent it in, or I would tell the player running out to tell him to run a certain play because I thought it'd be open, only to find out he was already sending that play in."
Tyler has "thought about being a football coach probably someday. I feel like I know a lot about the game – I've been around it for my whole life. I feel like I'm a coach out there on the field sometimes – if the players have questions or if I see something, to be able to tell coach.
"It's been a lot of fun, so I don't think I want to quit having football in my life."

Manchester's Wenyen Gabriel ready for the spotlight at University of Kentucky
It's been an explosive year for Manchester's Wenyen Gabriel - a year that's landed him in one of college basketball's most storied places.
Gabriel has enrolled at the University of Kentucky, the eight-time national champions who have made the NCAA final eight in five of the last seven seasons, including the 2012 title.
Two years ago, Gabriel was a 6-foot-5 standout at Trinity High School who had helped the Pioneers win the Division I championship in 2013. He was a fine player, but not on anyone's recruiting radar.
The scholarships began to trickle in following Gabriel's first prep season at Wilbraham and Monson Academy (Mass.) in 2014 with pitches from UNH, Providence College and a handful of other schools.
However, everything changed for Gabriel in the summer of 2015 while playing for Rivals Basketball Club of Haverhill (Mass.) in several national AAU tournaments.
Gabriel not only lit up the competition, but did so with a new 6-foot-9, 185-pound frame, the result of an explosive growth spurt "I'm definitely ready for this change with prep school really helping me out the last two years," said Gabriel after taking in the Sam Carey Basketball Classic at Southern New Hampshire University on last month. "That higher level of competition I was up against makes me feel pretty well-prepared for what's in front of me and I'm excited to tackle the challenge."
The summer showcase helped Gabriel climb into the ESPN.com's Top 100 college basketball recruits for the class of 2016, reaching as high as No. 9 at one point, and earned him calls from powerhouse programs like Kansas, Duke and Kentucky.
Gabriel committed to coach John Calipari and the Wildcats, officially signing in November.
After his decision, Gabriel's game and physique progressed. He averaged 22 points, 14 rebounds and six assists in his final season with WMA last winter and graduated in May standing 6-foot-10 and 204 pounds. The body development continues to be the biggest surprise about Gabriel.
"Growing an inch helped him a little bit, but he worked really hard in the weight room," WMA coach Mike Mannix said. "Putting on somewhere around 20 pounds of muscle in two years is a pretty significant feat for high school kid that hadn't done a lot of strength and conditioning prior to getting here."
While there are many challenges ahead on the court, it doesn't appear to be any easier off for Gabriel. He's not only in unknown territory down in Lexington, but he'll have the burden of his growing celebrity-status as a top college athlete.
"It's not something I really think about," Gabriel said. "I just try to focus on the task at hand. There is a big year to look forward to and that's what is really important to me over anything."
Even if Gabriel's status does catch up with him from time to time, Mannix isn't so sure there will be a struggle to manage all the attention from what he's seen from Gabriel to this point.
"He learned to just kind of unplug at the right time," Mannix said. "Just because your phone buzzes, it doesn't mean you have to answer. But he knew which calls or texts were significant and took priority by keeping a good inner circle with his family and people back home.
"When he was plugged in or unplugged, for the sake of his own sanity, he always made sure to do it in a respectful way. The way he handled it was mature beyond his years."
Gabriel, 17, who came to Manchester with his family at age 3 from Egypt and South Sudan, his birthplace, has great support in the Queen City, the only home he's ever known.
"I feel like I have the whole city behind me," Gabriel told the Union Leader in 2015. "Growing up I haven't made any enemies. I feel like I'm inspiring a lot of people, so it makes me really happy. It makes me want to do even more."
The unique part of Gabriel's game is that, despite carrying the build of a rim protector, he possesses the skills of a guard. He was groomed as a shooting guard or small forward before his big growth spurt and those skills have remained and adapted with Gabriel's body.
"In the last 12 months, he's worked really hard on his ability to put the ball on the floor and get by his opponent," Mannix said. "He's to a point now where he can beat his man off the dribble with different footwork, and dribble combinations by improving that ball handling.
"All of that has really helped to make him that combo forward instead of just like a power forward."
In addition to his uncanny skillset, Gabriel has greatly improved his work with his back to the basket, which is traditionally a strength of a player with his height. Gabriel prides himself on how well-rounded he's become and expects it to translate well on his new stage.
"I see myself as an impact player and that's what I am aiming to show I can be from the start," Gabriel said. "The hope is that I can just get a lot of good minutes this year and I'm looking forward to making the most of them.
"My motor and length have been important parts to my game. They're really going to continue to be big tools for me as I go."
As far as his playing time goes, Calipari has shown he is not afraid to throw first-year players directly into the fire and seems prepared to do just that with Gabriel.
"I see him as a 6-10 guard in the sense that, if we're playing three guards, he's one of them," said Calipari on his official website, CoachCal.com. "He can really shoot it, he's got a great shot and he's a shot blocker defensively. He's an energy guy who can guard multiple positions and is getting better by the day."
Calipari has become one of the most prolific coaches and personalities in the college ranks. While he's taken criticism for how he has run his programs since beginning his coaching career in 1988, Calipari has come into his own at Kentucky with 28 of his former Wildcats being selected in the NBA Draft over the last nine years. Gabriel is hopeful he can join that group under Calipari's tutelage.
"Coach Cal is everything I thought he would be," Gabriel said. "There was never a change in his approach throughout my recruitment and you have to like that about him. He is an 'in your face' kind of coach, but that's the type of stuff you like as a player because it gets you ready to go."
The attention Gabriel has brought to New Hampshire basketball is rare. Few Division I players come from the Granite State.
The best known Granite State player is Matt Bonner, who went from Concord High School to the University of Florida and then a 12-year career in the NBA, 10 of those seasons with the San Antonio Spurs, where he was part of two NBA champions. Claremont's Kaleb Tarczewski just completed four successful years at Arizona, and Duncan Robinson of New Castle averaged 11.2 points per game last season as a sophomore at Michigan. Both of those players attended prep schools, as Gabriel did.
Trinity's famed Fab Four of the early 2000s all famously got Division I scholarships. Luke Bonner played one year at West Virginia before transferring to UMass. Chris Lutz played two years at Purdue before transferring to Marshall. Chad Millard played a year at Louisville before moving on to Creighton. Chris Brickley had the most interesting road of the four, starting at Northeastern, transferring to Southern New Hampshire University in Division II, and then joining Louisville for his final season and a half.

Roger served over 20 years with the NYPD, where he spearheaded the NYPD's first dedicated facial recognition unit. The unit has conducted more than 8,500 facial recognition investigations, with over 3,000 possible matches and approximately 2,000 arrests. Roger's enhancement techniques are now recognized worldwide and have changed law enforcement's approach to the utilization of facial recognition technology.
The Philadelphia Police Department will soon implement a new set of guidelines for how officers interact with transgender people, reports The Daily News.
Deputy Commissioner Kevin Bethel worked with members of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community to fine-tune the nine-page directive, police spokesman Lt. John Stanford said.
"The times have evolved, and not just within the Police Department," Stanford said yesterday. "You see it across the board in so many different areas. We have to learn to adapt to the times."
The policy offers basic definitions of transgender men and women, and how best to sort out names and identities during interviews or arrests.

There are people with Zero Voting Rights and say in Government. Like people with autism, downs syndrome and cerebral palsy just to name a few. But like Orwell's Animal Farm. Some Animals have more rights than others! The LGBT feel so persecuted. Yet they are the ones who persecute others, and have no tolerance. There are many disabled people will less, but they don't have big PR Machines, and $ to buy out the Ruling Elite politicians. I guess these Trans Humans, don't want to be called what their plumbing is. Just what they want to be. Take a hard look at double standards like Adam Lambert a gay singer who can beat his boyfriend, you don't see GLAAD attack him? But Phil on DD gets hammered, for not agreeing with a persons lifestyle! No hate speech! He didn't yell "Kill Blacks" or "Kill Gays". But the false media makes disagreement into a false "hate speech". God help the LEOs in Philly to deal with the TC. Because I wouldn't!

Isn't that truly "speshul" the Deputy Commissioner worked with the perversion lobby to develop 9 pages of "I'm OK, you're a bigot/sexist/homophobe" directive.Why are the inmates allowed to run the institution? These people may not like their plumbing, but it does define them.

Review Summary
- Across the street from the beach
- Central South Beach location
- 37-inch flat-screen TVs
- Clean, modern bedrooms
- All-night street noise
- Entrance clogged by the bar crowd next door
- Restaurant has astronomical prices
- Creepy dark hallways
- Indifferent service
- Small bathrooms that could use updating
Bottom Line
Across from the beach, in the middle of the all-night Ocean Drive chaos, this cheap party pad offers 50 clean, modern rooms, free Wi-Fi, and a bar that serves fishbowl-size mojitos. For spring breakers who can look past unsettling hallways and small bathrooms, the Colony is an inexpensive stay. Otherwise, check out the Pelican Hotel or Congress Hotel.

Oyster Hotel Review
An art deco icon in the heart of South Beach, where a stream of scantily clad young visitors and locals wander around with frozen drinks in search of action.
One of the highly photographed sights in South Beach, the Colony's famous vertical neon-blue sign is a cool purple during the day, bisecting a series of sea-blue lines that punch up the whitewashed, three-story art deco exterior. Columbus Cafe, is set up in front of the building's parcel of sidewalk, covered by matching blue umbrellas to give patrons shade from the hot Florida sun. The menus don't have prices and the restaurant makes Miami's worst-restaurant list for horrible service and charging astronomical prices.
The high-ceilinged lobby features neutral floor tiles with sea green accents, including the smooth, curved front desk. The party often moves to the halls of the hotel itself, particularly since its low prices make it popular with 20-somethings and partiers on a budget.
Most guests at the hotel are there for the sights, sounds, and action of South Beach. The most satisfied guests are those who come with the attitude, "You get what you pay for," meaning they appreciate the Colony's spectacular location and art deco style, and accept that it's low on amenities and personalized service (though on the bright side, rooms are generally clean and modern).
Service is attitude-heavy and indifferent at worst, considerate and slightly apologetic at best. But most guests consider this a fair trade-off for low room rates.
Guests often complain about the Colony's general lack of service (not helping guests with bags, paying no heed to maintenance calls, and generally never going the extra mile). The hotel does not have a concierge, and bell service is not something that's often mentioned or praised. A few guests cite helpful front desk clerks who carefully stowed their luggage or valuables for them, but far more complain about not getting into their rooms till late, or staff absentmindedly leaving their stuff out in the open or unattended at the front desk.
My experience just about fit this profile. I asked for an 8:45 a.m. wake-up call -- it never happened. Thankfully, I guess, housekeeping completely disregarded the "do not disturb" sign on the door and came busting through the room at 9 a.m. Under any other circumstances I would have been livid at being woken up by housekeeping that early, but in this case I would have missed my flight. Thank you, discourteous housekeeper!
The only person at the hotel that seemed to enjoy interacting with -- or even care about -- guests was the French bartender who blew kisses to the girls and mixed enormous, rum-heavy mojitos to get the buff, shirtless guys through another session of barking at the bikini-clad beach-goers walking by.
Smack in the middle of pulsating Ocean Drive, the Colony is across the street from Lummus Park and within walking distance of bars, restaurants, and South Beach's hippest clubs.
Love or hate the hotel, it has a fantastic location, which is not only convenient, but also generally clean and safe. What the hotel lacks in amenities or service, most guests feel it more than makes up for with its proximity to shopping eating, drinking, and sunbathing.
There's a reason the Colony's neon sign is one of the most photographed sights in South Beach -- it's a safe bet there will be always be a throng of scantily clad revelers beneath it. This is a major pro for partiers, but early-to-bed guests would definitely have issues with the location, which is noisy and crowded all night long.
Nearby Hotels
The Colony is directly across Ocean Drive from the quintessential South Beach spot Lummus Park Beach.
Lummus Park Beach is considered Miami's best spot for people-watching and outdoor activities, and the Colony is directly across from the epicenter of the action. Topless, bronzed beauties sun themselves in the sand, men in speedo suits Rollerblade down the sidewalk, and everyone in between packs in near the sparkling water.
The hotel doesn't provide umbrellas or beach chairs (guests can rent them on the beach), but it does give guests beach towels.
The hotel's 50 deluxe rooms and suites are surprisingly modern, with flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and mini-fridges.
The art deco lobby, creaky elevator, and dim hallways had me worried about what I'd find on the other side of the door in my deluxe room. I was pleasantly surprised. Rooms are clean, featuring dark wood platform beds, modern furniture, and 37-inch flat-screen TVs. Wooden floors, close-up prints of green plants, and iHome docking stations add to the contemporary design. My room was perfectly spacious, though some rooms can be a bit on the small side.
Blue-tiled bathrooms are clean but small, featuring walk-in showers or shower/tub combos with rainfall showerheads. O2 Oxygen toiletries are provided. Rooms also come with electronic safes, mini-fridges, hairdryers, irons, and ironing boards.
One gripe is that rear-facing rooms look out over nothing but a dark alley (while one guest considers this a plus: It's a lot quieter than the all-night party on Ocean Drive!). Once again, the prevailing attitude is "you get what you pay for."
The hotel essentially offers four types of rooms: There are two oceanfront suites (one each on the second and third floors), which have separate bedrooms, Jacuzzis in the bathrooms, and fantastic ocean views. There are also two oceanfront queens, which are laid out in the same style as typical deluxe queens but obviously also feature great ocean views. The rest of the hotel's 46 rooms are deluxe queens and doubles (which have two double beds).
Rooms and Rates
A no-frills hotel without a pool, the Colony does have free Wi-Fi and beach towels. For more extras, seek out a larger, pricier hotel.
There's no pool, although the beach is right across the street. The hotel offers nothing more than a couple beach towels.
The hotel also offers valet parking, dry cleaning services, and printing services at the front desk.
The on-site restaurant, Columbus Cafe, is one of Yelp's worst restaurants. Fortunately, the neighborhood is bursting with better options.
The Columbus Cafe lures unsuspecting diners with 2-for-1 and happy hour specials. But it consistently receives terrible reviews on Yelp and TripAdvisor for not showing menu prices and then charging exorbitant amounts. The food and drinks range from bland to straight-up bad. Though, if huge fishbowl drinks with cheap tequila, sugar, and beer sound appealing, the Columbus Cafe is popular for them.

This is actually not a bad idea, play a neutral site game then off to both home stadiums. That way there is a unbiased game in a large city stadium then home n home series.
Neutral site games are bad for fans in general. it's just a money scheme. Even worse idea b/c Indiana biggest home croud last year was 44K with a capacity of 53K. People don't really come to campus games and now your going to make them travel an hr and pay also pay for a single game ticket. UL fans aren't going to be that excited to play Indiana…Mich St, Michigan, Pen State, Ohio st who yes..not Indiana a doormat of the b10
It's not a money scheme, its good for business, if it was so bad for fans then why do they show up to the games? You also don't know how these two teams will look in 8, 9 or 10 years. You complain about teams need more home n home series & these two teams made that happen & you're are still complaining.
Indiana has sucked for decades, they will continue to be bottom dweller in the B10. Btw, it is stupid tp schedule a neutral game when you can't even get your fans to fill a tiny 53K stadium.
Well the city of Indianapolis didn't think it was stupid & is welcoming both teams with open arms.
I wonder why Purdue and Louisville didn't strike the same deal.
Because the basketball game deal is what sealed the football game deal. Who wants to watch Purdue basketball?
Should make for a more interesting basketball matchup, but a pretty cool idea. I'd like to see more schools do multiple sports deals.
Indiana should be working on meeting the b10 requirements for OOC, They have to change games in 2019 and 2020 as their back to nack years of Western KY, Ball State and UConn does not meet the P5 requirement. Get on the ball Indiana AD and stop scheduling nonsense neutral games for a cellar team in the B10. You need to drop 1 of those series and schedule a P5.
wow alabama hates playing at home
The "neutral' site games help them avoid playing an OOC road game: 8 conference games (4 road, 4 home) one P5 at a 'neutral' (but favorable) site, buy 3 home games against Go5 or FCS.
Alabama is going after that money!! I'm sure their fans would love to see a big match ups like these at home. Instead of FCS and group 5 games. Play a home and home with a power 5 team sometime. They could actually do both in the same year! Just a thought.
Actually, they need to provide some tickets to people other than just season ticket holders. If they could expand Bryant Denny to 150,000 they could sell that out now too. Problem is, Tuscaloosa can't handle that level of traffic at all.
SEC should invite UL & Clemson into the conference.
Oh yes, and invite FSU and TCU for the SEC-West.
Alabama would schedule H&Hs but they get pretty much a home game by playing neutral site games without having to play at Louisville (or Va Tech, Michigan, Wisconsin, etc.)
Dallas & Orlando is not considered a home game as a neutral site.
Agree, Alabama is ruining the tradition of college football scheduling with these off campus sites, it's a joke to call them neutral sites (LOL who's the joker that started calling them neutral?) Tuscaloosa can handle traffic better than Michigan at little Ann Arbor. Lets face it Bama is run by just a creepy bunch of administrators.
In Orlando? HAHA
So if it's a neutral site near Bama then thats cool. Look at the so called neutral site games in Dallas or Atlanta as reference.
I'm glad this crap doesn't happen in the NFL. Can you imagine the NFC south teams refusing to play road games in the cold up north? Carolina Panthers called the commish, they refuse to play at Chicago in November. Thats what would happen if the most the SEC athletic directors were in the NFL.
Keep hiding down south with a neutral site game, 8 home games and a bowl game all near home. We see thru it. Spare me your once every 15 year example they may travel away for a true road game. Do it every other year, thanks.
HAHA all you want to.
Magic Nick is extremely smart & knows that states like Texas, Florida & Georgia has some of the best players to recruit from. This is not the NFL so please stop comparing, 8 home games has nothing to do with anything, a bowl game near home is irrelevant, how many bowls are up north? There is a reason for that so please stop hiding behind it. I think Michigan & their fans would rather much be down in Florida for a bowl then playing in Wisconsin in a bowl. Bama is not looking to recruit in states like Michigan or Ohio so what's the point of playing a home/n/home there. There's nothing wrong with neutral site games, btw, every great team is playing in them, not just the SEC.
Alabama is one of the only one's that consistently do it… The fact that almost every team but the SEC teams plays 7 home games and 5 away games can't be taken away. It is a harder schedule because you travel to a hostile environment. No one is taking away Alabama's greatness.
That said, you must admit that they are using (and abusing) the system to make their path to the CFP as easy as possible. No?
No, Alabama is playing according to the guide lines of the NCAA, once again, not all conferences are the same, this is not the NFL where people luv to compare the two. If you want to blame Bama for (abusing the system) then make sure you add Baylor, Iowa & a couple others to that list. As for a hostile environment is irreverent, if the Buckeyes are 4 touchdowns better then Minnesota & they are playing at Minnesota then the crowd does not matter, the Buckeyes are going to win by 4 touchdowns regardless how hostile the crowd is.
I live in Tampa. Alabama is absolutely hated in central Florida. This is brilliant on bama's part. because it exposes them locally to young talent.. be it, Orlando (florida), dallas (texas) and atlanta (georgia) etc. Look at the hometowns on their roster.
The Ville will play anybody, anywhere, anytime, at anyplace just give us a call, either call me or Tom Jurich. LoL.
Just kidding about the me or Tom Jurich, Mr, Jurich is our Athletic Director here at the Ville. And the greatest A.D. in the country at that.
Also it will be a great honor to play the great Crimson Tide, the University of Alabama. However we are just as excited of our University of Louisville as well. It should a great match up. May the best team win.
when was the last Alabama home & home type of series before the one with Penn State
so correct me if I am wrong we have Auburn & Florida State in 2016 now Alabama & Louisville in 2018 BOTH in Orlando but nothing (yet) in 2017 but if so who
Ole Miss not Auburn
Alabama's last Home-and-Home series before Penn State in 2010-2011 was in 2002-2003, against Oklahoma. The reason it's not done anymore is that it's MUCH more lucrative to have a neutral site game, as well as advantageous to recruiting.
Alabama played Duke home-home in 2006 and 2010.
Look at the Alabama schedule page. You'll see they open with neutral site major P5 opponent each of the next four years
2015 09/05 – Wisconsin (at Arlington, TX)
2016 09/03 – USC (at Arlington, TX)
2017 09/02 – Florida State (at Atlanta, GA)
2018 09/01 – Louisville (at Orlando, FL)
Not ducking (hey you risk everything playing your opener against that major an opponent) and huge payouts to both schools. These are great for us fans. We don't have to wait for SEC season to Alabama play a real team.
Not ducking? Don't wanna wait for the SEC season to play a real team? Tell Saban not to chickenshit his way out of home-and-away series vs Power 5 conference teams. I haven't seen anybody bring up the fact that Alabama was supposed to have a home-and-away with Michigan State and Saban backed out of that because he was allegedly worried about the SEC going to 9 conference games. What a pansy! He's fast becoming the Bill Snyder of the SEC.
There's a big difference between Saban & Snyder. Saban is playing for conference & national championships, Snyder is not. A lot of people have brought up the fact that Bama is no longer playing Michigan St & basically it that is old news & does not really matter. Calling Saban is pansy, now that's funny.
If you knew your facts, you would know that it is Nick Saban that was and is pushing for a 9 game conference schedule. Yeah, he was real worried about Michigan State. How did the last game against them end by the way?
Hey Marlin Dartmann how did you like the game with Michigan St and Wisconsin this year .rflmao We beat the shit out of both little 10 teams. And don't pull Osux out they are 3-1 against Bama.
How did that last MSU game go against Bama?
I really hope Purdue is competitive by the time this game rolls around.
Even if Purdue isn't, it's better than playing Directional Nowhere State.
Even DNS has been too tough for Purdue lately.
neutral site games are over done and aren't even big match ups like when they first started. The only game of note for 2017 UM/Fla and that's assuming both programs rebound quickly from several consecutive down years.
Eh, I disagree with that. UM/Fla doesn't really move the needle because we've seen those teams play before. At least Purdue and Louisville is kind fresh. If both teams are fielding competitive squads by then, it'll be fun to watch.
2016 –
Bama vs. USC – Cowboys Classic
Wisconsin vs. LSU @ Lambeau Field
Virginia Tech vs. Tennessee @ BristolMotor Speedway
You also have to take into account that most schools have beefed up their non-con schedules and it is, as you noted, difficult to schedule these games a few years in advance as you may not know wether a team will be up or down.
See Here –
Georgia vs. North Carolina – Chick FilA Kickoff Classic – Looked good a few years ago when Larry Fedora was on the rise, but not so much since he has not done much at UNC.
FSU vs. Ole Miss – Orlando – All of Hugh Freeze's stud class of recruits from three classes back may be gone by then. But, hey. Either way, I'll be watching.
Kevin Kelley, do you know if a game like Chick FilA get out of a contract if they have a feeling the game is going to stink, or no one way show up like last year's Ole Miss/Boise match up? I am sure the Greatest Network in all of sports cares at least a little. But having looked at other ACC schools it doesn't look like there can be many other replacements as most of the big schools already have their sched's lined up with at least 1 P5, or like Clemson, already two.

Why, centuries ago, did the native people of Easter Island carve gargantuan stone heads? How, in the apparent absence of timber, did they drag these moai from quarries to locations circling the tiny island? Why were the statues later toppled? These are the perennial mysteries Jennifer Vanderbes places at the heart of Easter Island, her chilly, elegant, and extremely ambitious first novel. In the tradition of A.S. Byatt's 1990 masterpiece Possession, Vanderbes braids narratives of characters from different eras in an attempt to solve an intellectual puzzle. It is a polished, readable, honorable, and, in the end, curiously bloodless piece of fiction. In 1912, Elsa Pendleton, yet another in the great literary line of impoverished, intelligent British governesses, resigns herself to a passionless marriage to the unappealing older anthropologist Edward Beazley, a colleague of her late father who agrees to support both Elsa and her retarded sister, Alice. Edward ("only reading and writing and the occasional mapmaking seem to relax him") gives young Elsa an edition of Darwin as a wedding gift and suggests a honeymoon expedition, accompanied by Alice, to Easter Island in the South Pacific. With the onset of World War I, they are soon joined by a squadron of German battleships. It is a voyage with all the classic earmarks of disaster: Repressed Europeans–Elsa and Edward do not often share a cot–visit a land where people eat avocados and guavas and practice polygamy. The Beazleys set up camp on a beach where Elsa tries to learn the history of the island; Edward and Alice spend their days excavating moai. Or so they say. This story line is crosscut with a 1973 narrative featuring the recently widowed Greer Farraday, a 33-year-old botanist who has packed up centrifuge and microscope and moved to Easter Island to study ancient pollen. She has her own emotional preoccupations (her dead husband, also a botanist, used to steal her ideas) and her own theories about the moai. With the help of a disheveled elderly woman who lives in a cave, Greer takes up where Elsa left off 60 years before in trying to unlock the island's secrets. There's an awful lot going on here, which is both the beauty of the book and its greatest shortcoming. Vanderbes has constructed an intricate and ingenious tale, but it comes at the expense of the characters: People don't drive this cerebral novel so much as wander through it. Greer, for instance, is saddled with a long and overdetermined back story that ultimately turns out to have little relevance to the action. And poor Elsa, to all appearances a smart, sensible woman, suffers a sudden breakdown that can only be understood as a requirement of the exacting plot. It's impossible not to admire Easter Island; it's somewhat harder to warm to it.
