My brother took on the Octogenarian birthday duties this year without me and he and sister Souljah took the O. down to Port Aransas for his birthday again. As we all know, Gustav could take a turn and hit the Texas gulf coast as easily as anywhere else at this point. I can think of no greater Hell than having to be in a long line of evacuees on roadways moving at the speed of molasses with my 85 year old Dad. As I may have mentioned before he can be quite the verbal handful around others and very impatient. So Godspeed Tom and Sister SoulJah and the Docstress when you get there. All you fellow travelers please start your chanting, praying or whatever works best for you so that Gustav will fall apart and not hit the Texas Coast or New Orleans. Ok, time for a little hurricane humor to lighten things up...

Apparently some are offended by the satire in the onion hurricane video, personally I think it makes fun of how arrogant we can be as Americans at times. Plus its just really funny. All kidding aside tho. If you are in an area of the Gulf that could possibly take a hit from Gustav please heed all warnings posted by the National Hurricane Center.
Accuweather.com is another great source for hurricane and weather news in general. And for your listening enjoyment here is a vid or Beck performing Gamma Ray at the Outside Lands Festival. We cannot wait to see him at Austin City Limits in just a few weeks! Three day tickets are sold out, but last year some popped up on Craigs list when people had plans change, so it is worth a shot for the festival that rocks!
From now through November some of the best travel deals of the year will become available and it is a far less crowded time of year to travel...well once Labor Day has passed. Remember loves, life is a journey, stay packed. Ciao for now, Maggie

More and more multinational companies and noteworthy business concerns are venturing into the hospitality sector owing to the sudden and remarkable spurt that this sector witnessed in the last couple of years. The latest to join the bandwagon is the very famous Sobha Group. The most surprising and remarkable development that the hospitality sector is showing even in the third world countries has prompted these concerns to either increase their number of properties in these countries or start afresh. If we take the example of India we will see that the number of world-class five star hotels are growing by the day in all the major cities owing to the growth and development that the country is witnessing in the IT sector and the overall infrastructural boom. Opening properties in the countries like India prove to be all the more fruitful because they are experiencing an unprecedented hike in the number of guests who are wiling to stay in these hotels. The profits are also more as against the investment. Especially Bangalore hotels and Hyderabad hotels are reaping the maximum benefits apart from the metros because these two cities are witnessing unparalleled progress in the IT sector. Most of the hotels are also tying up with Hyderabad airlines and Bangalore airlines respectively, so that they have edge over their competitors as far as the bookings and popularity are concerned. In short, the hotels in Hyderabad and the hotels in Bangalore are trying to make hay while the sun is still shining. In addition these areas are comparatively less costly as compared to the metros. The profit that they are generating is certainly on the higher side as against the investment.
