» Hotels in Paris

3 of us may be traveling to Paris for one week in March - 2 adults and 1 (10 year old) child. Understandably, the two adults would like some privacy once in a while. Any recommendations for a nice one bedroom hotel, or apartment, where the bedroom is separated from the "living room" with a door and the living room has a pullout sofa or can have an extra bed added? Something approaching a reasonable rate (I know this is subjective) would be nice too. Thank you.If staying in a hotel, this sounds suspiciously like a full suite, uncommon in 'reasonable' hotels...

I received an Access file as an attachment in an email (a known good file). The message took a long time to load and there's a little paperclip icon in the inbox, so I figure the attachment did come through.

» Important Health & Safety Information

This thread is the result of a comment made in another conversation. Over the years I have come to realise that although a great many people enjoy processing and printing their films they are completely unaware of the risks some of the chemicals used in the darkroom can pose to health. I am not attempting to put people off using photographic processes, or to frighten them. But it is important to treat photographic chemicals with care and respect and not take unnecessary risks. Observing safe practice is essential for those who teach or run classes of any kind. Nobody likes a law suit except a lawyer.

» OT: Watch out when booking through UA's US vs. Cdn websites.

I just booked SEA-SFO-NGO-SFO-SEA on UA for US$478.98 all-in (about C$600). UA's Cdn website quoted a much higher price (over C$800). To book on the US website you need a CC with a US billing address, I ended up booking over the phone using their automated system - which failed to function properly and put me through to an agent ($5 booking fee was waived). I have noticed this price anomaly before in prior years. Could not get the fare on travelocity or expedia. First trip to Japan, which I had been planning prior to UA's "Introducing Nagoya" sale.

Booked LHR/YUL rt several months ago with D confirmed YHZ/YUL (Nothing direct was available.) and was assured of priority on LHR/YHZ and YUL/LHR because of the confirmed D space YHZ/YUL.

» AC No Longer Able to Enforce One Hour Checkin

According to the G&M this morning the feds have rapped AC for refusing two lads from catching their flights from Montreal to Edmonton. They arrived at check-on about 50 minutes before flight departure. The feds have forced AC to pay about $1,100 to cover Westjet fares! Ha!!!Already two threads on this one. The point of your title is not quite true either as AC must be more clear in its time limits to be able to enforce them. The decision related to the fact that at that time, AC's guidelines were not stated to be explicit enough and thus open to the challenge. New cutoffs with forfeiture of ticket value when not met, now provides the ability for AC to enforce its check-in times. This was not the case when this was brought to the CT...... - 2008-12-18

Also do a search in the archives, it is a topic that comes up often.Well I think of it as moving your weight from one leg to another, driving off one leg and landing on the other when you strike.

I was travelling to New York City last Saturday, for the first time as E. Due to aircraft change from RJ to E75, I 've got to exprerience that new addition to the AC fleet. As an unexpected bonus, I was assigned the seat 3A in executive class. What a treat! The plane was not full I walked up and down the whole aircraft to take a look and try a hospitality cabin seat as well. It is a major improvement over RJs in terms of comfort and space. The washrooms are still on the smaller size but larger than on RJ. Also, a thin wall divider between J and Y allows more privacy. Y bulkhead (row 12) has more legroom than A319/320. Overall, it was a flight from heaven. The exceptional onboard service provided by in charge flight attendant...... - 2008-12-18

» Reports from queries or something else?

Hey all, I have a database that I built, but my knowledge is lacking. I created a table and a form for that table. I then made a qry for that table, and a report based on the query I built. I went to check it out, so I filled in the form, which saved to the table. Then previewed the report, which shows the informationt that I just put in. Problem: When added a new record on that form, the preview report only shows the first entry I made, not the second. How do I get the report to show the most recent information typed in the form? Thanks, VinceOk first thing, is the data that you just entered filtered out by your query for example If your query is just for people in the USa and the data you just entered is for a person in...... - 2008-12-18

» Decent restaurant at YYZ?

Is there any place to have a reasonably nice meal at YYZ, preferably either in Terminal 2 or 3? By reasonably nice, I mean table service and food a notch or three above Tim Horton's. (I'll have a 2.5-hr layover and luggage, so going off-airport would be more trouble than I'm willing to deal with.)Your best bet might be to go the the Sheraton that's attached to T3. They have both a coffee shop type restaurant and then a more upscale one. I've eaten there a couple of times and it's certainly a notch above THT2 Has a more casual place as well, landside across from the Body Shop. If you are airside, I believe there is an Il Fornello's as well...I agree that the Sheraton T3 restaurant is a nice oasis to get away from the airport hustle and b...... - 2008-12-18

Master killer was mumbling something about ground fighting, or lack of, in sparring ;) San Shou/San Da scoring reflects traditional Chinese view on this sort of thing, STAY STANDING, most points are when they fall down, go boom and you stay standing. Thus, you can kill them if you have a weapon on you, stomp them, kick them or just run away :eek: Of course, stuff happens, so if you fall ON TOP, you get 1 point, because you can still work from there, but it is less of an advantage In my standard San Da classes, we stop after the throw, get back up and start all over again, but I have a separate program and classes for ground fighting so my people get to try and fight from on top, and from being underneath IE, stuff happens, you...... - 2008-12-18

» Best Points Programs

Any suggestions on points programs? I saw some discussion on Gold Points and MyPoints. I currently use Nesteggz. Perhaps someone could point me to previous discussion on a comparison of programs. Thanks.If you're asking what program to credit purchases to, it's not as simple as picking a single program and sticking to it. Some programs offer very poor earning across the board (e.g. AirMilesMart, though I find them very RELIABLE). Other programs just aren't trustworthy (IMHO Goldpoints). But otherwise it's more about which program offers the best deal with the merchant you're going to buy from. You need to compare which program offers the best earning for the particular purchase you're going to make. Andrew Cram's comparison ...... - 2008-12-18

I'm doing my first mile run this week to get AA plat through the challenge.

My routing is AUS-DFW-ORD-SAN(two hrs) then redeye-ORD-DFW-AUS-DFW-AUS.I would give it a shot - I've never had a 2-hour turn-around before with that many segments in a day, but generally, you can check-in for all your flights the same day & they should be able to check-in you in for the return - But, they may not let you do that. Because of the number of segments, I doubt you'd be able to check-in online at all.

Hey there: I'm 7028 miles short of MVP gold. I'd like to get there since I'll take a few international trips next year, and the resulting bonus miles will clear certain award thresholds. I could do a first class haul to the east coast and back, but that'll cost me $1000. MVPG isn't worth that much. Any creative ideas to do it as cheaply as possible, but only over two separate days at the most? Also, is it true there's a 500 mile minimum earned per sector? I've ran through some itineraries. In any case do the extra 50% from FC justify the fare? I've gotten the run down to 10 cents per mile (SEA>PDX>SEA x 3 & double miles with PDX>STS>PDX x 2). I'd rather do it all in a day..possible?

Isn't the biggest challenge facing any mayor of Newark to get rid of the intractably poor, aka the underclass? It seems that much of what drives what's wrong in Newark is due to a certain class of people living in the city. The municipality does not have the resources to solve what is really a problem that exists throughout this country. So wouldn't the city be better served if Newark gave its lawbreakers and jobless one-way tickets to some other location with a strong stipulation that they could never return to Newark?
