" I worked with Kelly numerous times as my speaking and presentation coach for my TEDx talk. She was invaluable in helping shape my speech and delivery. Kelly gave me confidence by teaching techniques that allowed me to relate to ANY given audience in ANY setting. I strongly recommend her as a coach, whether to someone seeking media training, rehearsing for a speech, leadership development and/or confidence training. Kelly has contagious energy, and it was an absolute pleasure working with her. "
Alexandra Wilkis Wilson, Co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer of Gilt Groupe and CEO of GlamSquad
" Kelly Hadous was a featured speaker at my inaugural WIN Conference in Atlanta. She was a dynamic and engaging speaker who WON the hearts of EVERY woman in attendance with her brilliant topic, How to WIN the room. Attendees are still talking about the practical nuggets of wisdom Kelly left behind and can't wait to glean from her knowledge and expertise at WIN 2015! You were outstanding, Kelly! Thank you for sharing your heart and talent with my guests. "
Patrice C. Washington, Speaker, Author, Coach realmoneyanswers.com
" Kelly thank you for being you! Your event was perfect and I'm soo delighted I attended. I found your presentation to be authentic and relatable to the audience. Just what I needed. Thanks again! "
Latoya Benjamin, PR and Economic Development
" Kelly did more than help me communicate. She and her team helpd me cut through the white noise surrounding what our organization is about in order to embrace the heart of BlocPower. Working with Kelly has allowed me to identify the spark that defines our organization, not just the general area where it's located. Thanks to Kelly, I am better able to harness that ignition point and use the energy that it generates as a tool with which to communicate BlocPower's purpose, mission, and values. Furthermore, I have worked with other presentation specialists before and what sets Kelly apart is her ability to help people like me truly put a finger on the "why" behind what we are doing. I highly recommend Kelly to colleagues and friends. "
James Hendon, Chief Operating Officer at BlocPower
" Kelly's workshop was extremely helpful. I'm a pretty experienced speaker at this point (both one-on-one meetings and at conferences over the years), but I always walk away with some new and exciting strategy from Kelly's class — there's always some thoughful and unique tip I refer to when I need to "win the room!"
Andrew Sheppard, Adjunct Professor of Finanical Engineering at Baruch College
"I reached out to Kelly and asked her to be a guest lecturer in my Capstone class at NYU, her knowledge about pitching was invaluable to my students. I then asked her to be a mentor to New York Universities incubators where I was the Director of Innovation and Entrepreneurship. Kelly coached many of startup founders and taught several workshops for entrepreneurs. Throughout the years I've known her, she's been a wonderful mentor and can teach public speaking, pitching and presentation with her eyes closed."
Micah Kotch, Director of NY Prize and Strategic Advisor For Innovation
Kelly teaches people how to win the room. We should all know how, but few study it as a science. Credible experts in all subject areas often lack in interpersonal skills, public speaking, confidence, and in the "it" factor. Kelly indeed has the magic. She focuses on strategy, message, conviction, voice, personal connectivity, and presence. As messaging experts, our entire executive board was impressed with how complimentary her training was to our strategic communications. Kelly is a pleasure, she's someone you want on your team. "
Daniel Delson, EVP of RLM Finsbury
" Kelly thank you so much for being you! Your event was absolutely perfect and I'm so happy that attended. I found your presentation to be authentic and relatable. I would love for you to be my mentor as I work on my personal development and professional skills."
Latoya Benjamin
"The WTR team helped us tremendously. Kelly's very smart and she and her team helped to clarify our pitch and our vision quickly. Because of Win The Room we delivered a winning presentation in front of hundreds of people, which secured us win at demo night and raise investment funds for our startup Sous App"
Brian and Don, Founders
" Kelly is an exciting intellectual who can enrich your vision in so many ways. Working with her was one of the best things I did to prepare for my successful TEDx Silicon Alley talk. What I learned in the time spent with her is more than I could ever imagine. Kelly knows exactly what is needed to take yourself, speech and your audience to the next level. She coaches with confidence, grace and power; what she says is inspired from real wisdom. She is a shaman of words! In Kelly you will find not only an excellent coach for public speaking, leadership training and media appearance, but just interacting with her will improve your presence and attitude in everyday life. More than recommended. Love you my dear Kelly!! "
Francesca Ferrando, PhD, Professor, Author and Post Humanist
" Kelly was instrumental in taking my public speaking abilities to the next level. She helped me to win the rooms in large international conferences, where audience engagement is key. In a very short time she recognized the barriers and was able to come up with a highly personalized solution technique on-the-fly. I'm definitely recommending Kelly to colleagues and friends! "
Yuli Ziv, Style Coalition
" Kelly's presentation on how to "win the room" is invaluable. She deftly shows the importance of connecting with your audience in-person or online, whether it's to one person or to one million people. I look forward to working with Kelly, as I embark on teaching my audience the nuances of business planning and investment pitching. "
Dave Friedman, CEO at Design First Media
" 5 stars Kelly your class was amazing!!! I LOVED it and learned so much. I met lots of great people in her workshop, and look forward to personally working with Kelly on my pitch. Thank you! "
Elsa Mehary – elsamehary.com
"Kelly it was great meeting and learning from you. I'm going to follow you and connect soon to benefit from your great wisdom and experience. I want to master my body language, as it has been challenging for me being born in Communist Poland."
Monika Kusinska Paez
" As President and co-owner of Fancy Foods Inc., I've attended several seminars with the hope that I would learn at least one thing that would assist me with my business. Kelly Hadous' of "Win the Room" presentation was particularly beneficial. Well, to my surprise, I learned much more than simply one thing, and the important lessons taught, will not only prove extremely useful in my business, they can also be applied to my personal life. My only regret is not inviting more of my employees to attend this exceptional seminar. If you find yourself in any situation where you need to capture the attention of one person or a thousand, "Win the Room" by Kelly Hadous, will greatly benefit you personally and professionally. "
Robert Corazza, President www.fancyfoodsinc.com
" Kelly was an angel sent to me. An expert in her field, she clearly understood my weaknesses from the start. Kelly gave me confidence as a presenter. Because of her, I delivered a powerful speech to over 1000 people. She clarified my written presentation, improved my speech, vocal projection, and stage presence. When I resisted she offered solid insight and reliable techniques to break through emotional blocks. In addition, she advised me in strategizing a go-to game plan with potential investors. I recommend working with Kelly hands down! And, recently Kelly gave a wonderful talk in Kuala Lumpur to MaGIC's Academy packed audience with rave reviews. "
Cheryl Yeoh – CEO of MaGIC Academy in Cyberjaya Malaysia
" I had the pleasure of witnessing Kelly in action on a investment panel that I organized, it focused on how entrepreneurs can captivate audiences and potential investors. Throughout, Kelly's input was an invaluable contribution. Her solid feedback made all the founders in the room step up their game. Her methods on how to improve the message of your pitch, how to use voice, energy, and body language is critical for winning over any audience. If you're looking to polish your sales/pitching and presentation skills I highly recommend Kelly of WinTheRoom. "
Patrick Burns – StartupLeadership
"Needless to say Win The Room is the hall mark for attaining all types of success. Additionally, Win The Room is an essential everyone. As the true test of intelligence is now being assessed the way one reacts to each other or reacts before the public. WTR helps every one reach his or her goals."
Shalini Soni
" I've learned a lot and had a lot of fun working with Kelly. To prepare me for Good Morning America, we met in-person and via Skype. She got right to the nitty gritty and quickly help to define my brand and my message. Through her training my focus and energy were shifted away from myself, and projected out to interviewer and onto my unseen audience. Her techniques and constant support continue to give me the freedom to be in the moment. I Highly recommend Kelly, she is knowledgeable, insightful and a brilliant coach. "
Lynae Fearing, Shinsei Restaurant
" I attended a pitch clinic taught by Kelly, and was impressed with her coaching skills in total, but most specifically, she has a remarkable ability to criticize without criticizing." It is the embodiment of "constructive. "
Ron Garcia-Vidal RioMar Group
" Kelly helped me co-organize TEDx 2011 and 2012, which was quite an undertaking. Our audience size was 1000 people. We had our hands full from the sponsorships. AV setup, press and social media management. Kelly also made herself available to the TEDx Silicon Alley speakers, worked one-on-one with several, and conducted a speaker's workshop offered to all (those whom she coached shared with me their praise, and it showed in their presentations). She was a true business partner and receives my highest recommendation. Kelly gets things done."
Chris Grayson, Humble TV and Organizer of TEDx Silicon Alley
" I use Kelly's techniques regularly, through my many interactions, I keep her words close to heart: be mindful of my presence and others, know what I want and what others want, and how to emotionally interact for impact. and results. She has amazing insight into people and she's very passionate about making sure you walk away with very actionable feedback and methods. Kelly's ability was all the more impressive since we had a full workshop She gave our investment pitches very specific tailored feedback. It is clear that Kelly loves her work and is very good at it. I look forward to developing my skills further with her. "
Marcus Louie – Collective(i)
" Kelly teaches with such a passion and an excitement that is vital to helping anyone to succeed, especially in fast-paced New York, in the tech hub and in life. Kelly challenges you to find your focus and bring a positive sense of urgency in all projects you engage in. I highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking to up their game, and communicate better with co-workers, investors and business partners. I look forward to working with her again! "
Chas Wagner, Six Overtimes

I would highly recommend Kelly's to all professionals looking to improve their interpersonal skills. "
Anthony Mancuso, The Fearless Road
" My experience with Kelly was watching her front and center control the crowded event at Stamford Tech meetup. (BTW An event which she co-founded and helped to put Stamford Ct on the map as a tech hub.) Kelly's leadership made for an extremely effective and enjoyable time. Also, I had the pleasure of Kelly's expertise in one-on-one coaching sessions when she defined, molded and structured my product pitch. Kelly's amazing talents accurately identified my positives and strengthened my weaknesses. She identified nuances I needed to make a presentation come alive, from message, presence, voice, to engaging the audience with a powerful call of action. Because of Kelly, I gave the most powerful pitch." Kelly taught me to "win the room. "
Simon Silverleaf, Expense Reduction Analysts
" Kelly did an excellent job of providing constructive targeted feedback, while maintaining an open and positive atmosphere. She also encouraged feedback from the general audience, and she was great at finessing and moderating that discussion. I was impressed by the amount of insight she was able to share in her mini-feedback sessions, in contrast to people who just ramble on for a long time without saying much. Each of her words counted. "
Dan Bernstein, HSHNordbank
" When I started my book tour for, "The What If? Book of Question?" I needed help on my public speaking and presentation skills. My friend Nevil Ede recommended Kelly Hadous, and just as he promised, she saved the day! She's part strategist, part psychologist and part motivator. Kelly shared her valuable techniques, honed over many years of winning many, many challenging rooms.

She not only delivered top notch information but was an engaging and inspirational speaker.

Kelly Hadous is a strategist and a diplomat, which makes her a force to be reckoned with in face to face communications. "
Thomas C. New York and London
"I had the distinct pleasure of working with Kelly Hadous to launch the social media campaign for my creation, Yoga Teddy Bear. As a hands-on visual artist who does not spend a lot of time in virtual reality, I felt intimidated and unsure of how to manage my online presence. Kelly and her team gave me a great jump start in the social media arena, as well as invaluable strategic advice on how to manage communications, identify and target my audience, become a thought leader in yoga education circles and overall grow my business. Because of Kelly's efforts, the Yoga Teddy Bear brand is much more focused and has its own distinct voice. Now my character has a respectable online presence and our followers continue to grow. Thanks, Kelly!"
K. M. Copham, creator / CEO, Yoga Teddy Bear

In case of an emergency, every second counts. Are you sure that the ambulance can quickly and easily find your house? Having a house number properly displayed is an important factor that can save precious seconds in a life-threatening situation. House numbers also help to provide clear directions for tourists and friends, as well as for postal and delivery services.
The Cariboo Regional District is providing house numbering services to all residents outside the municipal boundaries.
When calling to request a house number, residents should be prepared to provide a legal description of their property. The proper legal description may be found on the property deed or on the tax assessment notice. The Cariboo Regional District can also use the property identification number (PID) indicated on the tax notice. To assign a new number on large acreage, owners may also be required to provide a drawing showing the location of the house relative to the property boundaries.
To get a house number fill out the application form.
The Cariboo Regional District has a program with local sign companies for standardized house numbering signs. The program is available to all Cariboo-Chilcotin residents.
The standardized design resembles a 5" X 12" license plate and includes reflective materials. The price is $21.50 per plate plus taxes and available through the following participating companies.

Dr Tickle takes a proactive approach to your wellbeing by offering a thorough screening to provide reassurance that you are in good health. This convenient one-hour appointment, which is covered by your corporate package of benefits, considers all aspects of your health. It includes a comprehensive range of tests that provide early surveillance of heart disease and cancer, so that any issues are caught early. You are encouraged to attend every other year up to your 44th birthday and annually once you turn 45. The first time you attend, you will be asked to complete a questionnaire, which gives you the opportunity to mention any health concerns you may have.
There is usually no need to fast unless you have concerns about your blood sugar or cholesterol, in which case please do not eat any food in the 8 hours before you attend. Of course you may drink water but no other beverages.
We will not share your information with anyone – and that includes your employer or human resources department. Like all doctors licensed to practise in the UK, Dr Tickle is bound by the GMC Duties of a Doctor, so everything you discuss with Dr Tickle is confidential and will not be shared without your permission, unless there are concerns for the health of a child or any other vulnerable person as a result of your discussions.
If you are registered with an NHS General Practitioner it is best to keep them informed of any significant changes in your health and medications. Your blood test and blood pressure results will be sent to your NHS doctor, unless Dr Tickle is instructed otherwise.

|About this Recording
8.110779 - TAUBER, Richard: Operetta Arias (1921-1932)
Richard Tauber
Operetta Arias
From his earliest career in opera, and for more than two decades to his last, protracted association with his own Old Chelsea from 1943 onwards, Richard Tauber and operetta were inextricably linked. Indeed to this day, with editions of his recordings on LP and of his films on video in mind, that affinity has been repeatedly reaffirmed, the unflagging demand for Tauber software bearing overall testament to his essentially Viennese, operetta-orientated personality, optimistic, outgoing and exuberant, yet unassailable in its musicality. An excellent pianist, Tauber was an even better, if largely frustrated, conductor, while as a singer of classical music, a specialist in Mozart opera and German lieder, he remains a model unsurpassed.
In a typical Tauber concert programme of the 1930s Mozart and operetta were given equal billing, with the inevitable Lehár Dein ist mein ganzes Herz because his audiences expected it. During his midlife the tenor was based in London where he won fame both on stage and on screen through a small clutch of operetta-style cult films, while scores of best-selling titles from operetta, shows and films recorded for Parlophone established him in popular perception as the quintessential 'romantic' tenor, rivalled only by Gigli and McCormack in their own respective spheres.
Richard Denemy Tauber was born out of wedlock to theatrical parents in the Austrian city of Linz on 16th May 1891. Although always interested in singing he at first showed no great inclination for it, and while his joint talents for piano and composition were nurtured at the Conservatory of Frankfurt-am-Main, his burning ambition was to become a conductor. Encouraged, however, by a period of vocal study with Heldentenor Karl Beines in Freiburg, in 1912 he was offered a contract by the Wiesbaden Theatre, of which his father was director, but opted instead for a further year's study with Beines. In March 1913 he made a more prestigious début at the Neues Stadt-Theater in Chemnitz, as Tamino in Die Zauberflöte and a few days later he sang Max in Der Freischütz, an opening which virtually overnight secured him a five-year contract with the Dresden Royal Opera.
Tauber was first contracted to Dresden from August 1913 to the end of July 1918, an association which would last, notwithstanding various contractual interruptions and appearances in opera and operetta at the Berlin (from 1919) and Vienna State Operas and elsewhere, until 1926. Soon renowned as that rare thing among tenors, a musician, he was ever in demand as a stand-in for indisposed colleagues and his (essentially lyric tenor) repertoire, over sixty operas by more than forty composers, was remarkable in its diversity. In 1915 he sang Bacchus in Strauss's Ariadne at 48 hours' notice, after one piano run-through with the composer, and by the time he made his earliest records (June 1919) critical acclaim throughout Europe and a reputation as a fast learner had preceded him.
Among tenors, the range of Tauber's operatic repertoire, albeit incompletely captured on shellac, remains legendary, and the same might be said of his association with operetta. During the early twentieth century, especially in Austria and other German-speaking centres, operetta ranked on a par with opera, and such Johann Strauss II staples as Die Fledermaus, Eine Nacht in Venedig, and Der Zigeunerbaron were already standard theatre repertory. Tauber first sang the last-named at the Vienna Volksoper in December 1920.
For the greater part of 1921 Tauber made guest appearances principally at the Berlin Volksoper and State Opera, where his rôles included Don José, Rodolfo and Ottavio, and in 1922 he broke with Dresden to accept a contract with the State Opera in Vienna. There he braved the displeasure of the State Opera management to sing Armand in the new operetta Frasquita, which proved irresistible to the ambitious young tenor. During the show's initial 195-performance run Tauber was chronologically the fourth tenor to assume the rôle created by Hubert Marischka and the opportunity provided him with a break from Mozart, Puccini and Verdi and, more importantly, his fortuitous first link with the Hungarian Franz Lehár, at that time the undisputed doyen of Viennese light opera, not to mention an early 'theme-song' with Hab'ein blaues Himmelbett.
The pre-Lehár Tauber was also temperamentally inclined towards the promotion of other works of operetta and during 1923 alone, in Vienna, his appearances in lighter works included Korngold's Eine Nacht in Venedig as well as local 'creations' in Oscar Straus's Die Perlen der Cleopatra and Bacchusnacht. In 1924 he sang in the first (unsuccessful) performances of Ralph Benatzky's first operette Das Märchen von Florenz, at Charlottenburg, and later that year, in Vienna, at the Theater an der Wien, whilst conducting performances of Kálmán's Herbstmanöver in his spare time, first made the aquaintance of his future spouse, the vivacious, Hanover-born soprano Carlotta Vanconti (1892-1964), who had only recently made her début at that theatre in Gräfin Mariza. During their short-lived association (married only briefly, they divorced in 1926) Tauber and Vanconti recorded various duets, including two from Lehár's Zarewitsch (Tauber sang in the première in 1927, with Vera Schwarz as his partner) and one from his first landmark success, the 'operette-vorspiel' Der Rastelbinder (1902).
In 1924 Tauber struck up a friendship with Lehár and in the summer of 1925, in between engagements at the Munich and Salzburg Mozart Festspiele, he resided at the composer's retreat at Bad Ischl to work on Paganini. First performed in Vienna in October 1925, the première lacked Tauber owing to prior commitments in Berlin (these included Eine Nacht in Venedig and a short season at the State Opera followed by a tour with that Company to Sweden) and was a near-fiasco. When later re-staged at the Johann Strauss-Theater with Tauber as the legendary violinist, however, the show which gave the world a second 'Tauberlied' with Gern hab' ich die Frau'n geküsst, proved a resounding success.
Tauber's subsequent Lehár creations included Friederike (1928), Das Land des Lächelns (1929), both first given in Berlin, and the Berlin première of Schön ist die Welt (1931) and Giuditta, the composer's last work, first given at the Vienna State Opera, in 1934. The Tauber discography also offers definitive versions of Lehár songs from works he did not create, including both the waltz and the soprano air Vilja from the earlier Lehár landmarks Die lustige Witwe and Zigeunerliebe.
During the early period of electrical recording which preceded the era of the film-musical, Tauber the populist and pioneer of crossover was also quick to capitalise on extracts from operettas and shows of wider provenance. In this area among his first efforts were Im chambre séparée from Richard Heuberger's ever-popular three-act operetta Der Opernball (1898) and German translations of both the title-song and the Indian Love Call from Rudolf Friml's two-act Rose Marie, a major 1924 Broadway hit musical which had an initial Broadway run of 557 performances and was subsequently much revived and twice filmed by MGM, in 1936 and 1954.

Lessons learned during The Drought make Royals' success now even sweeter
Let me introduce myself. My name is Domenica, and I'm a member of the so-called lost generation — that flock of Royals fans who have never before seen this team reach the playoffs.
Well technically, I guess I did. In October of 1985, I had my first taste of mashed-up pasta and meatballs, as my mom meticulously noted in the "Baby's First Year" calendar. I don't remember any of it though — the World Series or the red mess I smeared in my high chair.
Waiting practically my whole life for this team to reach the postseason hasn't been easy. And my peers and I have had every right to complain along with the rest of the blue faithful.
But while we were mired in those losing days, we didn't realize how much we benefitted from learning the toughest lessons early on. The ones that fans of perennial winners get to skip — unless their teams tumble into the ash heap. Taking so many knocks up front has made us better, heartier baseball fans.
Yes, that unbelievable 29-year dry spell has certainly taught us how to lose. Year after year, we dragged ourselves through the harsh desert sand without a drop of water. Even trying to envision a mirage of playoff wins seemed impossible. While we often had talented players we loved, the seasons could be painful. Afterwards, we smiled, took the jabs from other teams' fans and moved on.
But the 2014 Royals have brought us something new, something that doesn't require the same kind of hand-wringing. And the something that's going on right now is teaching me how to slow down and fully experience the higher rungs of that ladder every sports fan hangs onto.
Let me start from my own beginning.
I was enamored with baseball as a kid. Perched on the black vinyl passenger seat of our car and making my way through the neat swirls of a vanilla ice cream cone my dad had bought me, I listened to my first radio broadcast of a baseball game. The announcer's voice, cicadas' buzz, summer heat and black night combined with baseball's strange concoction of tense calm and flurried activity. It drew me in, and I wanted to hear more.
But by the time I started falling for baseball, the Royals began their downward slide in the 1990s. As the team regressed, my peers and I displayed our disappointment. When a Royals official visited my third-grade class to nicely answer kids' questions, he found himself tiptoeing through a minefield of queries about the strike and why we didn't have more wins. Or, when our school uniforms got a day of rest in favor of civvies, rarely was Royals gear found among the zoo of Chiefs starter jackets and Zubaz pants.
My first taste of how others pictured Kansas City baseball came when I went to college. During the onslaught of meeting new acquaintances, the first part of the conversation was often the same after I told them my hometown.
"Are you a Royals fan?"
Usually they couldn't finish that question without erupting into a deep belly laugh.
As an astute student of sports fandom when living outside one's own city, I quickly learned the defense mechanism of acting nonchalant and critical of your teams.
Although my new friends eventually eased off the teasing, I was still left with no one to root for during postseason game-watching gatherings. So I tried on different teams. First, the Yankees — perennial winners with iconic pinstripes in one of the country's best cities. But it didn't feel right. Having never lived in New York, I didn't have its sports mindset. And yes, I'm now embarrassed about that life event.
Then my St. Louis friends took me to a Cubs game at Busch Stadium, and I found a secondary home in my state's other team. I celebrated the Cardinals' World Series victories in 2006 and again in 2011. David Freese's home run that forced game seven ranks as one of the best sports moments I've seen.
But when I consider the events of this past week, it's like the difference in picture quality between analog TV and HDTV. For me, the Cardinals' wins can't compare to the pure thrill I felt when Salvy Perez smacked that line drive in the wild-card game or when Mike Moustakas and Eric Hosmer unleashed go-ahead home runs in consecutive games of the ALDS.
No, the waiting hasn't been easy.
But now we get to learn how to win, and isn't it great?
I had my first "victory-when-it-counts" lesson while watching the wild-card game. Nervously clutching my Royals cup and decked out in my favorite Royals shirt, I insisted on multitasking with some computer work. That way if we started to get blown out, I could divert my attention and pretend I was really only working anyway. In truth, I flipped out when the Royals fell into a four-run deficit, afraid the whole thing would disintegrate.
It was a lot like the first time I drove a car by myself. New license in hand, I was practically shaking when I turned the key in the ignition and put the vehicle in reverse. So many dreadful scenarios coursed through my head like a reel of film. So many what-ifs.
But once the car was traveling down the road, finding its place in traffic, my right foot loosened up. I realized I enjoyed directing that rumbling machine. I reached my destination without a scratch.
And so did the Royals on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Now, with two wins in their division series, the team is returning to Kansas City for game three. I'm finally relaxed and absolutely relishing the intensity of postseason baseball, which means that I'm pretty sure I've passed my first course on learning how to win. And I can't wait for more.

Pick Up & Drop Off
- We are located in Bellingham Washington just 45 minutes from the San Juan Island Ferry, 15 minutes from the North Cascades Highway and 30 minutes from the Canadian border. We can pick you up at the airport if you are flying into Bellingham. If you fly into Seattle there are bus, train and plane options for getting here. We have a secure place to store your parked car while you are on your vacation.
- We have a very private room with separate entrance, private bath with coffee maker and small microwave that is available for $100 per night if you need a place to stay before or after your rental. The room comes with continental breakfast for two and is not included in your rental cost. Let us know if you need to reserve the room.
- When you pick up your van after 12:00 noon on the first day of your rental, we will spend about 45 minutes going over all of the systems of the van and signing the contracts provided by Outdoorsy. The van is due back before 1PM on the last day of your rental. If these times do not work with your schedule please make arrangements well before your pick up date and we will try to accommodate your request.
Deposits, Cancellations & Refunds
- The deposit, cancellation and refund policy is clearly outlined on the Outdoorsy site and you agree to the terms when you make your reservation deposit.
Mechanical Breakdowns
- We spend a great deal of time and money making sure that the chance of mechanical breakdown is as low as possible. Our rentals require an additional $15 per day for Coachnet 24/7 roadside insurance through our booking partner Outdoorsy. This covers towing, flat repair and allows you access to mechanical assistance. https://www.outdoorsy.co/dashboard/coach-net
- If you experience a mechanical breakdown (not a flat tire) contact us by phone immediately and we will either offer a solution over the phone, travel to you to remedy the problem or give you the name of a reputable VW repair facility where you can have the vehicle towed. If the breakdown is catastrophic we will attempt to bring a replacement van to you. If one is not available we will refund the rental fees for days not used. We are not financially responsible for your accommodation or transportation in the event of a breakdown.
- If the mechanical breakdown is a result of negligence (running a van without water or oil), driving off the road into a ditch, getting stuck camping in an unimproved camp site then you are financially responsible for any towing or repairs associated with the breakdown. Chuckanut Westfalias is the sole determinant of negligence.
- Adds for van rental are full of beautiful pictures of vans being parked or driven on sand beaches. Our vans have limited slip differentials and do not easily become stuck in sand but if they do, you are fully responsible for the towing and cleaning charges.
Loss Policy
- Chuckanut Westfalias is not responsible for lodging costs or other costs resulting from a change in your vacation plans necessitated by mechanical breakdown.
- Chuckanut Westfalias is not responsible for any loss, injury or damage to person or property resulting, but not limited to the vehicle rental.
Dogs & Cats
One thing that sets us apart from many other rental agencies is that we are pet friendly. This, however, comes with some important qualifications:
- If you bring a pet, we will provide you with a rear seat cover that must be used at all times if your dog (like ours) will sleep on the rear seat while traveling or in camp. The $50 cleaning charge does not include funds to clean muddy dog paw prints off the upholstery and will result in additional charges.
- If you are beach camping, wash and towel dry your dog before letting them return to the van. We will provide you with towels for your dog.
- You may not leave your pet unattended in the van at any time. In addition to being against the law, dogs that experience anxiety can do a great deal of damage in a short amount of time. That damage could negatively impact the next renter's experience while we wait for a new seat or cushion to arrive from Denver.
- Puppies chew! We know this from experience and a van trip is not the best environment to train a young dog.

What can you say about a scoreless game? With one per shot for nearly every ten minutes, New York City FC's last home-game against the Chicago Fire was a bit of a snoozer.

I met Leighann when she Mc'd the Ladies of Laughter she was fantastic!! I have also run into her working out new material at the Duplex. She knocked me out. She is so sly and funny. Sharp as a laser and quick to a punch. She is the opposite of the word Hack. Every joke is handmade with her own brilliance and unique slant on life. She is everything I try to be as a standup and so much more....

I think in order to be successful you need to plan well. I don't generally have a specific day that I plan the menus, usually it's after Thursday (the day we get our sales) and before we run out of food. Since I'm buying local organic meat, I need to do all my planning on Friday because the market is only opened on Saturday. I could just go to the stores that sell the meat for the farmers, but I'd rather get all my questions answered by the farmers directly. I also like the atmosphere at the market. People going in early to sell goods, and other coming in hungry looking for something delicious to eat.
I was 18 when I first heard about farmer's markets. I was a college student in Woodstock at the time, and the market mostly consisted of elderly women selling same hand mittens… Then when we moved to Fredericton, my husband and I had an apartment right behind the farmer's market. Every Saturday morning, it smelled like samosas, and fresh bread when we opened the window. When we had a bit of extra money lying around, we'd go buy a dozen samosas and look at all the meat and cheeses on display. Those were the days!
Now that I live in Moncton, I have the option between two markets on Saturdays, and an extra one in Shediac during the summer. They all have their advantages, good foods and varieties of products on display. I find the idea of being able to access such a wonderful network of local producers a great advantage in doing the Whole30 program. I think if I was living in my hometown, being able to find fresh, organic produce would be a lot more challenging. I'd probably have to drive 45-60 minutes to an actual beef farm to get what I want. There would be a lot more planning and hunting (in the non literal sense) to do to get what I need. Luckily, Moncton has several natural food stores, organic farmers and of course Farmers Markets. It's still far from perfect (try finding Ghee!!) but it's easier to plan around what I have available.
This morning, I looked at the flyers to see what was on special and then made next week's menu accordingly. I like to use the OurGroceries app to write out my list. I use the webpage to insert everything, and have the app on my blackberry to cross off when I get to the store. It's super convenient and I always have my list with me in case I stop in to the grocery store. I have different lists for different stores for example: Bulk Barn, Groceries, Home Depot, Market… I don't go to home depot regularly, but I learned that my husband always buys the wrong filter for our furnace, so I saved the size in that category, in case he has the urge to buy more!
Planning our meals in advance also helps me reduce our grocery bill. I'm less likely to buy something that's not on my list. I do the groceries once a week and if I forget something, that's just kind of too bad, I'm not going back. My mom doesn't do meal planning, and she gets rather frustrated with what to make for supper every night. I can honestly say, that's never been a problem here!
My planning skills also prevent me from buying food at the cafeteria where I work. I make sure my lunch is made, in the lunchbox, in the fridge before I go to bed at night. As a kid I would set out all my clothes for the next day before I went to bed, and I occasionally still do (even though I wear scrubs and need zero serious planning about what to wear to work.)
Sweet mother of River Song, that was a long planning rant so here's what I ate today:
Meal 1
This omelet didn't know what was coming… I'm really not great at making omelets. Also I tend to smoke up the kitchen. My dogs have grown fearful of me walking by the stove for fear I might set off the fire alarm. I've never actually burnt anything though…
This morning's omelet consisted of olives, bacon, chicken, and mushroom.
Meal 2
I had left over Chicken Divan from last night. I didn't think it was going to be enough food so I heated up a bowl of beef stew, but I didn't end up eating it.
Meal 3
Mustard-Garlic Brussels Sprouts from Well Fed 2, Coconut Cauliflower Rice also from Well Fed 2, and Mocha Steak from the It Starts With Food Meal Map
Sweet Tardis of Gallifrey, that was such a great supper! It was supposed to be a celebration meal, but my husband got caught up at work, so I shared it with little Z. As per usual, I was missing some key ingredients, which is starting to irritate me, I wish I had everything I need to make my recipes. Tonight I was short on Coriander (substituted with Cumin), Shallots and Whole30 appropriate Dijon (used mustard powder instead). About the Dijon though, I seriously considered using it anyways. I had an inner conflict moment, eventually I convinced myself that by cheating on Day 7, I wasn't going to accomplish anything, and the only one I was cheating was myself.
I wish I could of had my BBQ out today, but the wind probably would have blown it away. I cooked my steaks on Broil and there was definitely some smoke in the house. The fire alarm went off 3 times, and my dogs will never forgive me for that. The steaks were perfectly cooked, but since I don't have a vent for my oven, I have to open up windows and turn on fans. Someday I'll have a real kitchen! Anyways, about the dogs: I almost had to carry my 65lbs Husky mix into the house, she was terrified. I spent a good 20 minutes outside freezing my butt off trying to coax the bloody Dalek into coming in. It wasn't until my husband got home at 7 that she came in.
So there it is, my first week completed! I feel great, but no noticeable changes just yet. I haven't felt the need to have a mid afternoon meal, I rarely snack (handful of Cashews or Macadamia sometimes), and I don't feel guilty about seconds once in a while. I'm looking forward to my upcoming meals, and kitchen adventures!

The 11th International Symposium on ALPD and Cirrhosis
Tatiana Kisseleva, MD, PhD
Dept.of Surgery, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA
Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) progresses from a normal liver, to alcoholic steatohepatitis, fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Alcohol produces a systemic effect on other tissues and organs, including liver-brain axis and intestinal permeability. Liver is directly affected by alcohol. Alcohol-induced chronic hepatotoxicity results in systemic release of proinflammatory microbial products, toxic lipids (such as ceramides) and cytokines into the circulation, and exacerbates cytotoxic effect of alcohol on other organs, including development of insulin resistance and oxidative stress. Central nervous system (CNS) is the other major target of alcohol toxicity. Chronic alcohol consumption causes direct neurotoxic effects, such as neuronal apoptosis and astrogliosis, neurocognitive impairment. In addition, alcohol misuse establishes a liver-brain axis of neurodegeneration mediated by toxic lipid trafficking across the blood-brain barrier. Despite of intensive studies, the pathogenesis of alcohol-induced damage of the liver-brain axis is poorly understood. Furthermore, the role of Interleukine 17A (IL-17) cytokine in regulation of alcohol-mediated hepato- and neurotoxicity has not been evaluated. IL-17-producing T helper (Th17) cells originate from naïve Th0 cells via TGF-β1/IL-6/IL-23-dependent activation of retinoid-related orphan receptor γt (ROR γt), which plays the central role in Th17 proliferation and IL-17 production. IL-17 signaling was implicated in mediation of autoimmunity, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, fibrosis and tumorigenesis. Here we demonstrate that genetic deletion of IL-17 signaling in mice devoid of IL-17 Receptor A (IL-17RA-/- mice) attenuates development of alcohol-induced progression steatohepatitis to fibrosis and HCC, and blocking IL-17 with anti-IL-17 antibody have a therapeutic effect on alcoholic liver fibrosis. In addition, administration of anti-IL-17 antibodies to mice with alcohol-induced liver fibrosis also prevented neuronal apoptosis and astrogliosis, suggesting that blocking of IL-17 may effectively prevent alcohol-induced hepato- and neurotoxicity. If proven, IL-17 may become an attractive target for anti fibrotic therapy of patients with alcohol-induced liver fibrosis and HCC.

Teenage girl arrested in connection with eight Paso car burglaries
A 16-year-old girl who ran away from her Apple Valley home was arrested early Tuesday morning in connection with eight Paso Robles car burglaries, police said.
A male suspect eluded police and is currently being sought, officers said.
At approximately 12:36 a.m. Tuesday, Paso Robles Police Officer Matthew Worley was patrolling the 1600 block of Summer Creek Lane when he noticed a male and a female looking into cars, police said. Both suspects ran from the officer and attempted to hide next to a nearby residence. When Worley found the pair, he was able to detain the girl but the second suspect, described as white male adult wearing dark clothing, escaped into the nearby Salinas riverbed, according to police.
Additional officers were dispatched to look for the suspect using a police dog, but he was not found.
Items taken from the eight neighborhood automobiles were found after the arrests, police said.
Police are not releasing the name of the Apple Valley girl because she is a minor. Apple Valley is southeast of Victorville in southern California.
Police are still trying to identify the male.
Those with information can contact police at 237-6464. Those wishing to remain anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers at 549-STOP or text message tip information to SLOTIPS (274637).
Police urge residents to remember to lock their vehicles and not to leave valuables in sight. Criminals will sometimes break car windows or cut convertible tops to get to property they see inside a vehicle, police said. -Tonya Strickland

Today i am here with the a recipe which i tried first time and it came out good, it was so easy and so quick to make. Even my kids frequested me to let them make these pedas but instead of pedas they made round ladoos with it (see at end of the recipe). They enjoyed it very much and after making them, went straight to the drawing room where everybody was busy in watching T.V, both shouted "see we have made ladoo" all were so delighted. These are quick, flexible and healthy pedas. You can also shape them in ladoos, but i preferred this shape as i feel they taste more like pedas rather then ladoos. Don't worry about shape it will taste great in any shape.Try it and let me know.

Poha/Beaten Rice- 1 cup

I know it's the best decision I've ever made; my CPA friends tell me how lucky I was to be able to take over a Hertz operation instead of spending the rest of my life being a CPA!
Begin your validation process here by reading about real-life experiences from some of our existing Hertz licensees.
It's a great way to acquire used cars.
Over the years, I've made 15 Hertz location acquisitions in 21 cities, and I can't look back and feel anything but pride and being very rewarded.
Hertz is a great company to work with. One of the main reasons we decided to become a Hertz franchise had to do with the customer experience being very important to us. I'm really happy with the decision we made some years ago to acquire our first Hertz franchise, and we've acquired others since.

At Animals Asia, we love nothing more than to bring you closer to the bears whose care is only possible thanks to your support.
One way to catch the countless magic moments in a moon bear's life at one of our sanctuaries is Vine, a moving image that's worth a thousand words.
Here's our top 15 from the more than 100 currently available to view online.
1. Bear down!
No one is quite sure what this moon bear thinks he's doing, but we're delighted that it was captured on video.
2. When Goldie met Big Red
When sun bear cub Goldie arrived at our Vietnam sanctuary as a cub, the team did everything they could to make sure the young orphan was kept stimulated and had plenty of toys to play with. One of the best was her favorite ball, Big Red.
3. Moon bear pool party
When temperatures soar over 30 degrees Celsius (approx. 86 degrees Fahrenheit), moon bears know what to do - hit the pool on mass. And this is what a moon bear pool party looks like.
4. Bear bubbles
Cub siblings Rain and Nora JamJack are two of the 32 cubs who have grown up at our Vietnam sanctuary. A major part of sanctuary life is keeping these youngsters healthy and happy - here the duo had very different reactions to a tub of bubble bath.
5. Play time at last
Peter and Shamrock were rescued from a horrific bear bile farm in China where they endured more than a decade of confinement and agony. So when they were finally able to once again walk on grass, they certainly made the most of it.
6. Mirror mirror
Not a mirror image - just a game of synchronized tag!
7. A bear on a swing
Simple pleasures - the very definition of carefree.
8. Splash time
This footage of Georges going splash happy in his paddling pool was a huge hit and made thousands of people very happy - but not as happy as Georges that summer's afternoon.
9. The bear necessities
Baloo was everyone's favorite "Jungle Book" character, and if like us you couldn't watch the big bear scratch his back on a coconut tree without wanting to join in too - this Vine will make you very happy.
10. Life's better together
Sun bears Layla and Sassy arrived at our Vietnam sanctuary as cubs and sadly had to grow up alone. But as soon as they were old enough, Layla and Sassy were introduced and suddenly had the best friend each of them had always longed for. Cue long summer days getting up to hijinks like this:
11. Careless whispers
"I should've known better than to cheat a friend, and waste the chance that I'd been given," whispered one moon bear to another, carelessly. We're pretty sure all is forgiven.
12. Comforting a cub
Moments after arriving at our Vietnam sanctuary, incredibly young moon bear Murphy was given the comfort that such a young cub needs, which instantly calmed him down and helped him recover from the recent trauma of being poached from the wild at just a few months old.
13. First contact
The moment bear cub Goldie tried to say hi with her carers was when we knew she was going to be very happy at our Vietnam sanctuary.
14. Fancy dress
We hate to play favorites, but Holly just charms our socks off. Here she plays dress up all by herself. Now that's one playful bear.
15. Sailing home
Rescuing two moon bears from an island within Vietnam's iconic World Heritage archipelago Halong Bay is an experience none of us will ever forget. The satisfaction of sailing home as the sun set on one of the most beautiful areas of the world with two freed moon bears destined for a better life was nothing short of magical.

Destiny's Captive
Kate Lyon
Leisure, Nov 2009, $6.99
The raid at Baldwin Fort, Texas left almost everyone dead in the bloody massacre. The few young survivors were sold to the Comancheros. He adapted to the Indian way of life given the name Chikoba. He married, but soldiers murdered his pregnant wife. Insane with the senseless massacre of his loved ones, Chikoba attacks soldiers whenever he can although he has never assaulted a civilian.
In 1875 the Great Spirit sends Chikoba a vision insisting he goes back to where his journey began. He starts using his birth name of Jeremiah Baldwin for the first time in years and returns as a white man to Baldwin Fort. Wealthy rancher Senor Don Miguel Sanchez owns the land, but no one knows how he bought it or from whom. Someone attacks Jeremiah leaving him dead.
Another survivor of the Baldwin Fort massacre Angelina was raised by Sanchez as his daughter. She suffers from partial amnesia having blocked out the horror of that brutal day. She loves her father, but she hides an injured Jeremiah from his henchmen though she is not sure why. While she help nurses Jeremiah back to health, Angel begins to recall the massacre while her dad's man Juan Delgado who sold Jeremiah to the Comanchero displays openly he wants her.
This is an exhilarating western Reconstruction Era romance starring two delightful lead protagonists carrying tons of baggage from the same massacre and odious villains. Filled with plenty of action, readers anticipate the showdown between Delgado and Baldwin with a confused Angelina pulled in several directions by the men in her life. Kate Lyon writes an enjoyable Texas historical romance starring a strong cast as the good, the bad, and the ugly converge on a sweet young woman.

(General Skilled Migration), business sponsored, investment, partner and student visas.
Through our combined 30 years of business experience, our expertise enables us to analyse our clients' circumstances, needs and goals, and develop visa pathways for their future. You can count on i-migration for making migration easy.
¨ My Permanent Residency Visa would not have been possible without the help from I-Migration. I went to heaps of other migration agents and I was told straight up that my case would not be possible with my partner, until I had a chat to Antony from I-Migration. He took the time to explain why my case was possible and the best way to approach the application. I was also briefed on how he would argue my case if something does not go as planned (rejected).
I took up the service and constantly liaised with him and Jocelyn to have everything on track and obtained the required documentation along the way. After a year or so, we were ready to lodge our PR application and hoped for the best. After submitting our last pending document of the application, the PR visa was granted within a FEW HOURS. It was just phenomenal and I have not met people who had it granted within such a short time frame.
I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND using their service as these guys really know their stuff. Good luck! ¨

I love these ideas! Wish I had come up with them when I was backpacking through Asia and South America =) Although I did keep a pretty detailed journal during my travels, and I still love to sit down from time to time and flip through them.
Journaling & Writing
Some keep journals better than others; I'm one with great aspirations (a 5-year journal) that exists with middling success. I've decided I want to do better than just mediocre, and have read a couple of books about travel journal-keeping. I wanted to share some of the ideas for journalling here, since I know that some of my extended family keep journals of various types as a personal choice, family tradition, or specifically for travel.
Most of these ideas are targeted at travel journalling, but here are a handful that I think can be used across the board for journal ideas:
- Describe or explain your surroundings with the detail you'd give to someone who had never been there or had no concept of what it would be like.
- Trace something (a passport, a handprint, a theatre ticket, your new work ID badge) and then write around that open space, or in the open space, about the relevant event/an idea relating to it. Paste whatever you traced, if applicable, nearby (if you trace your hand, kind of hard to paste it!).
- If you drink wine, save your wine cork – and dip it in the dregs/any leftovers(if you don't drink it all…) across a journal page to make it into polka-dots. If you're travelling, you can also glue a local coin to one end of the cork and turn it into a unique stamp or seal.
- Take something that happened (bad or good) and look back on how it came to be. Lose your wallet, graduate summa cum laude? Look back at the incidents that propelled you down the path for the event to happen.
- Take a page in the middle of the journal for "bests" and "worsts" from weather, hotels/hostels, transportation, etc.
- Treat your journal as a scrapbook – whether it's big things like photos, tickets, strange wrappers from potato chips/crackers or the like, or small/unusual pieces like odd gum wrappers, stickers, bottle caps, etc.
- Write about even the hum-drum everyday stuff. Someone mentioned on our summer break that she had found old journals of a family member's, and what was the most boring thing then ("Bought a new cow. She gives good milk." type of letters) is interesting now, because times have changed. I know what's gotten "everyday" for me ("Harassed by monkeys again." or "Almost run off the road by bad drivers from Haryana.") will be unusual to anyone not in my position.
Some of these ideas taken from The Internet in general, and some from Lavinia Spalding's Writing Away book. I strongly encourage anyone who wants to do more creative travel journalling to read Writing Away, and complement it with a side of David Fox's book Globejotting, which is definitively for travel journal writers.
