The Bangladesh Nationalist Party commonly referred to as the BNP, is the mainstream center-right political party in Bangladesh. It is currently the largest opposition party in the Jatiyo Sangshad, the Parliament of Bangladesh.

National Unity:
During the formation of BNP, the country was divided into various parts. But BNP emphasize on national unity. For this, the party founder Ziaur Rahman allowed Sheikh Hasina, exile daughter of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman to do politics and also Islamic parties which are known as 'anti-liberation forces' to do politics.
Foreign Policy:
BNP remained a neutral stance in the country's foreign policy. After the independence, Bangladesh is known to pro-India and Soviet and BNP tries to maintain foreign relationship with all quarters.
Formation of Government:
Zia led Government:
After the assassination of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the country faced no government for nearly three years. Through many incidents, then Major Ziaur Rahman took the responsibility of running the country. Being President, he gave the second national election of the country where his BNP won 207 seats and Malek Ukil led Awami League bagged 39 seats.
Abdus Sattar led Government:
After two years of his government, Ziaur Rahman was killed and party leader Abdus Sattar led the government.
Khaleda Zia led first Government (Fifth Parliament):
On March 19, 1991, Begum Khaleda Zia was elected prime minister in the fifth natinal parliament election of the people's republic of Bangladesh. Her government introduced parliamentary democracy in the country. On April 2, she on behalf of the government proposed this bill and on same she proposed the bill of eleventh amendments to the constitution to create opportunity to go back chief advisor Justice Shahbuddin Ahmed to her own post.
Khaleda Zia led second Government (Sixth Parliament):
She became Prime Minister for the second consecutive term after the BNP had a landslide victory in 15 February 1996 general election to the sixth Jatiya Sangsad. The election was, however, boycotted by all other major parties.
Khaleda Zia led third Government (Eight Parliament):
Aiming to return to power, the BNP formed a four-party opposition alliance on 6 January 1999 with the Jatiya Party, the Jamaat-e-Islami and the Islami Oikya Jote and launched several agitation programmes against the ruling Awami League.
The alliance then participated in the 1 October general election and won the polls with a two-third majority and Khaleda Zia was once again sworn in as the Prime Minister of Bangladesh.
The BNP restored the parliamentary system through the 12th amendment to the Constitution in 1991 and introduced the Caretaker Government through 13th amendment to the Constitution in 1996.
Present Leadership:
The wife of BNP founder Shaheed President Ziaur Rahman, Begum Khaleda Zia is leading the party. Besides, elder son of Ziaur Rahman, Tarique Rahman, is the party's senior vice chairman.

The salmon quiche was delicious, the house was spotless, and the host was fantastic. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience real Alaskan hospitality.

My daughters first visit to Alaska and decided to stay at a more "homey" place our first night instead of the same old same hotel. Carol and her family have one of the BEST B&B's I've ever been to. What a perfect first glimpse into the lifestyles and history of Alaska. I wish we could have stayed longer and will make sure I stay when I come back.

Lovely B&B but not located in a very good area. We were not comfortable wandering around near B&B but access to downtown Anchorage easy with bus stop very close. Good value for money.
4,4 sur septembre 21, 2013
We were greeted and followed the house rules - we took off our shoes : ) Carol was welcoming and the Denali room was big with sofas to relax after a full day of walking - and a wonderfully comfortable bed. Tea and hot cocoa available upstairs. We loved the jacuzzi tub - we slept very well! Breakfast was waffles with birch syrup, homemade berry jam, freshly-gathered wild blueberries and whipped topping - delicious. On a quiet street, away from downtown. Carol made sure we got a discount at the Heritage Center which was a wonderful experience - all about Alaska's native people. She was glad to hold our suitcases while we finished touristing around town. A welcoming home away-from-home!

Breakfast was delicious. The rooms were outstanding. Carol even prepared a box breakfast when we left at 2.30am. Yes she got up to do that!

Stayed in Grizzly room 2 nights. Water tempurature in shower was difficult to adjust. When faucet was turned on hot, hot water came out of showr head right away and took longer than it should have to adjust water to a comfortable tempurature. Other than that it was a very comfortable stay. Very homey atmosphere. Breakfasts were excellent, hostess Carol was very welcoming and friendly. Knew a lot about Alaska and could answer any question you might have about the state and it's attractions. Knows the Anchorage area well and could help with directions. Guest living room upstairs was well stocked with many videos and books for a person to read and or just kick back and relax. Teas, coffee and hot chocolate were available to make at guest's convience.
4,2 sur août 03, 2013
We were able to stay with Carol and her family for two days. It was a great - centrally located. It was fun just to sit down and talk with them and gave a yummy recommendation to the Moose's Tooth Pizza restaurant and several other places to visit. Keeping in mind that July was the hottest month on record, and the normal thought of Alaska is cool, it is not like a hotel that has air conditioning.

This B&B is loaded with history. The art in the house is amazing-her family has been in Alaska for a long time. It's a little clutterred but loved it. The room was very clean and how the bathroom was put in the room was incredible. Great ingenuity. The breakfast was wonderful with Alaskian fare. The place was lovely.
4,4 sur juillet 29, 2013
I have to admit that I was intrigued by the previous reviews (good and not-so-good) and was anxious to visit this B&B to see all the Alaska decor and sample the breakfast offerings. We were greeted by Carol's granddaughter upon arrival. She was very friendly and got us set up in the Denali room. The room was clean and comfortable. The bath was spotless and we had a restful first night in Alaska. Breakfast was delicious and we enjoyed Carol's stories of Alaska. The various toppings for our sourdough waffles were wonderful. I agree with previous comments that it would be nice to get more than 1/4 of a waffle at a time, but Carol worked hard to keep them coming until we had our fill. The neighborhood did not feel unsafe, although road construction may have been a deterrant. The grounds were in full bloom and lovely. The house is a couple blocks from the Glenn Highway on the way out of town, so it was very easy to start our car trip to Denali NP the next morning. It was also an easy drive back into Downtown for dinner the night before. I would stay here again if given the opportunity.
4,4 sur juillet 28, 2013
Nice place--Carol was really sweet, and worked SO hard to make us all happy! Location does seem a bit sketchy, but it was really fine--we had no issues at all. Good stories, interesting and classical antique decor. A great time!

Great place to stay while in Anchorage. Easy to get to and close to many attractions. Super parking at the B&B. The breakfasts are fantastic! Carol will keep you entertained with her many stories about Alaska.

Carol Ross was an outstanding hostess. She was eager to share her heritage and knowledge of the area. She also had info on how to get around the Anchorage area. She really knows what she is talking about. All her breakfasts were home made. And she served them up with the pride they deserved. Thanks Carol

Very 'Alaskan' decorated home but cozy. The rooms were a little old fashioned (think wall paper and yellow-ish toilet and bath) but in VERY good condition. Breakfast was amazing as well. Be prepared for stories by the owner :) Easy to find, good location and plenty of parking space.

Big Bear is a great place to stay in Anchorage, and close to downtown.
3,8 sur septembre 23, 2012
Carol was extremely knowledgeable about the area, the people and the history of Alaska and Anchorage. She generously spent time answering our questions, filling in the blanks on history and natives to Alaska and the area and never once made us feel that she had something else to do ... VERY welcoming! The food was marvelous and she made a concerted effort to meet the dietary needs for my mother. The only reason i gave 3 stars for rooms, value and cleanliness is it is exactly as she advertised and my expectations were met. Well priced, no surprises except for for the warm friendly family feeling and service you receive from Carol and her family!

Me and my wife stayed two nights here before a 7-nights cruise to Vancouver. The location near the Heritage center and the rail station are the reasons we choose it. The breakfast we had are worth every pennies we paid for, especially the last day we had to leave before 6:00 am to catch the train, Carol got up early around 5:00 am to prepare two to-die-for breakfast boxes with the fresh cooked and baked food and fruits. On the train, we can say, everyone were looking at us enjoying mom-made breakfast. We felt loved staying here. Hope to visit Carol and her museum-like home again and again.
4,4 sur septembre 14, 2012
Carol was very courteous. Breakfast was very good. Rooms were clean.

We stayed at Big Bear for several nights. It was our first experience staying at a B & B and it was wonderful. The staff were all very pleasant. Carol was especially helpful with advice on things to see and places to eat. The breakfast was super. Something different every day. Overall a wonderful experience.
4,2 sur août 29, 2012
If you want to stay with real Alaska folks in Anchorage, this is the place for you. Carol has a house full of Alaska artifacts. The rooms are decorated in old Alaskan style. There is also a wealth of Alaska information and a variety of publications available in the upstairs guest parlor. Another great thing about this place is the quality of the breakfasts. Carol is a fabulous cook. She provides several different menus based on Alaska specialties. They are all great. Big Bear is also quite a bargain compared to other accomodations in Alaska. It is also very convenient to Anchorage attractions. All of this being said there are a few things to be aware of. This is a converted house, not a hotel. There are steep stairs to be climbed, and a no shoes rule to be obeyed. The upstairs bathrooms are a bit quirky and require some getting used to. These are minor inconveniences that are more than compensated for by staying in a clean, quiet, convenient place in real Alaskan style.
4,4 sur août 23, 2012
It was a good choice, we love the hostess, the house was very interesting, the garden absolutely fabulous, the breakfast was very very good. It could be perfect if the improvized shower/toilet spaces would be really isolated with real doors. The idea might be good, but it was not finalized properly.

One of the highlights of our adventure in Alaska was the Big Bear Bed & Breakfast. Carol Ross was a great hostess, delighting us with culinary foods from her gardens. Carol's knowledge of Alaska was interesting and fit right in with our plans each day. Jack & Shirley Morgan

Carol and her family are superb hosts and the house is full of memorbilia and antiques. Comfortable and clean room with a large private bath downstairs and even has a sitting area with TV. Parking is easy too. The waffles with native berries will get you off to a great start in the morning. Location is convenient to airport and highway.

We stayed at the Big Bear Bed & Breakfast for a total of 4 nights over a two week period. Each time was an event in itself; the breakfasts were unique and different every morning. Fresh fruits from the garden. Carol and Shelley were gracious, lively and full of interesting travel hints for our visit to Alaska.

We got up at 1:30 am to travel to the airport and it took over 18 hrs (with delays, a missed connection, and rerouting through Dallas from Chicago) to get from Vermont to Anchorage and the Big Bear B&B was a welcome sight. A huge king-sized bed for us to stretch out in, a day-bed for our 5 yr old grandson, and a hearty breakfast the next morning were just what we needed to rejunvinate us.
4,4 sur juillet 09, 2012
I was in Anchorage to attend the marathon on June 23, 2012. I found the Big Bear B&B to be exactly what I needed for my first trip to Alaska. I was there several days. It provided: 1, A quiet place to stay 2. A chance to talk to someone (Carol) about life in Alaska and the best things to see and do on a visit of any length. 3. Ideas from other guests at breakfast about things they've just done that they would recommend. 4. Terrific breakfasts, homemade, and ready when you are. Just talk to Carol the day before about when breakfast would best suit your plans. 5. Since I didn't have a car while in Anchorage, I found the People Mover bus stop convenient, even for a two-car owner from California.Those with cars visiting Big Bear appreciated the free parking. 6. My room, the Grizzly Room, was spacious, quiet, dark enough for those days of 20-hours functional daylight the summer brings. 7. For some, most importantly, the price was right. While I was in Anchorage, I visited friends who had a room for two at the Captain Cook hotel. They paid twice as much for the room, and paid plenty for breakfasts at the hotel cafe. Each day they walked through the lobby and into the world of downtown with only vague "brochure knowledge" (marketing) of the city and state they were visiting. I would recommend this B&B for the visitor who really wants to make the most of their Alaskan adventure. It seems ideal for those with rental cars who need a base for day trips out of Anchorage or to start their excursion inland to Denali and beyond.

Lovely homey atmosphere. Enjoyed meeting and talking with other guests. Delicious breakfasts, something different every day. Even had "Box Breakfast" for our early morning fishing trip. Highly recommend this B&B!
4,6 sur juillet 05, 2012
We stayed our last night in Alaska here. Carol's home was filled with brochures and she had a sitting room upstairs outside our room equipped with microwave, cups and assorted hot cocoa mixes and teas as well as Alaskan videos and DVDs. Nice breakfast visiting with another couple and sampling her homemade fruit sauces over sourdough waffle quarters. Glad we had time to enjoy the meal as we didn't have to hurry off that day.

Big Bear B & B is an inviting, very interesting, and reasonable place to lodge while in the Anchorage area. Lovely flowers grace the front entrance and the interior is an antique lovers paradise! Breakfast was superb! The Glacier Room in which we stayed, located on the front of the B & B, was a bit too warm, as there is no AC and the sun shone on that room all afternoon and evening. Outside of that, it was very comfortable!
5 sur juin 24, 2012
My wife and I stayed there the night before our Cruisetour started and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Carol and her family were extremely friendly, the beds were comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious. We enjoyed the stories of the sourdough starters. If we go to Anchorage again, we will definitely try to stay there.
4,2 sur juin 12, 2012
convenient location, 10mins to shopping areas which have Olive Garden etc resterants, and 10-15 mins to downtown. host is very nice, and very good breakfast, next time in Anchorage will stay here again.
4,8 sur juin 08, 2012
I've stayed here three times and it's always a good experience. The breakfasts are hot, unique and always tasty. I'm usually on business travel, but this time I brought my family. My husband is gluten free and Carol did a fantastic job accommodating his diet. In fact the gluten free banana bread was the best banana bread I've ever eaten. The rooms are what I expected, because I've been there before. As a family, we stayed in the Grizzly room one night, which is a great room for a couple or a single because the bathroom setup is unique. It's a room that was retrofitted to have a private bath. So when our daughter needed to take a shower, we just left the room and went went into the guest family room, which was actually a very nice setup. After the first night we moved to the Denali room. It was spacious, had a divider between beds and a large bathroom. We were very comfortable. Overall, this B&B is great, the food is excellent, fresh (often from the garden), and much has been done to make the accommodations it comfortable and convenient for the guests. I'll stay there again.

great gourmet breakfast. Carol is extremely knowledgeable about Alaska. enjoyed our stay and Carol's descriptions

Carol Can Cook!! If you are into a rushed breakfast and out the door person, then this may not be for you. Her meals involve preparation time and she takes it seriously. Beside the breakfast, the place is a quiet, convenient get away. Rooms are comfortable and the home is a little museum. I visited before the warm weather came. That means I missed the pleasure of her garden. The garden may be as good as her cooking.

Great stay! Friendly atmosphere! Good food! Thanks so much!

We felt very at home at Big Bear Bed and Breakfast and it was, by far, the best breakfast we have ever had at a bed and breakfast! YUM!

Carol does an outstanding job at making travelers feel at home. She has a wealth of knowledge about early Alaska and is eager to share it. The room was spacious, the bed comfortable, and the separate living room much appreciated. Her breakfasts are outstanding! I stayed in the winter, but would love to come back and see the garden in full bloom.

The owner has lived in Alaska all her life and has many interesting stories to tell. The food was outstanding and I had no complaints.

Our visit was great at Big Bear B&B. It was a special trip to Alaska and get to see our first two grandsons. We were treated like one of the family and would recommend Big Bear B&B to anyone who enjoys a family atmosphere.
5 sur septembre 28, 2011
Carol is a wonderful host and she is a wealth of alaska history. Her breakfast are fantastic, and almost all her waffle toppings are from her yard. She is a great cook and a pleasant lady to be around. I doubt I will ever stay in a hotel again. I can't wait for spring so I can see her beautiful yard in bloom!
5 sur septembre 18, 2011
Carol's flowers and garden frame Big Bear. Her master gardener skills and knowledge come into the kitchen to blend with her master culinary arts. Carol is a superb baker as well as a cook. Her presentation of her food captures the visual beauty of Alaska. Big Bear is a living tribute to the state of Alaska. Her many display's of Alaskan art, native crafts, big bear skin and various ivory pieces blend with her antiques to show her creativity. Carol is truly a steward for the state of Alaska. I encourage everyone visiting the state to treat themselves to Big Bear hospitality.
5 sur septembre 10, 2011
Everything was amazing! Right down to every detail. We needed to leave early -6 am, on our last day, and Carol was up before us, making a "box breakfast" for our train ride. Her garden, used for our meals, was very tasty. This may sound corny, but it reminded me of the days when I went to "grandma's house". Attention was given to whatever she could do to help you, and she went "all out" in preparation of her meals. Even dessert after breakfast!!! I highly reccommend staying here. It beats a name brand hotel anyday.
4,2 sur septembre 04, 2011
My husband and I were impressed by Carol's knowledge about Alaska and her extensive collection of native art. The house itself is very comfortable and we were warmly welcomed. Carol herself cooked our delicious breakfast. It was my husband's first B&B experience and I couldn't have chosen a better place for it.

This B&B is not just a house but a home away from home. A warm welcome, great breakfasts and a lot to see and to discuss.

"Museum", True Alaskan Cuisine and more, engaging commentary, wonderfull location, friendly and informative hosts - what more can one ask for?

I live in Seward, Alaska and stayed in this B&B while visiting Anchorage with my friends from Texas. The Big Bear B&B is run by a long time Alaskan family - ready to share stories with their guests! Breakfasts are cooked with goodies from their luscious garden and the family sourdough (with a story, of course). From now on, whenever we have guests from the Lower 48 coming to visit us in Seward, I am going to highly recommend the Big Bear B&B so that they can experience real Alaskans in an interesting and very deluxe lodging.
5 sur août 28, 2011
This was our 5th time staying at Big Bear. Carol & her family are very nice & eager to share Alaska with visitors. The rooms are clean & nice & the beds are comfortable. The best part, though, are the breakfasts! Carol is a fantastic cook & we look forward to her fabulous meals every time we are in Anchorage!

Carol was extremely hospitable. The house was a bit of living history, and both it and her knowledge of the area serve as a great introduction to Alaska.

It was totally amazing and unexpected. From the quality of the rooms to hospitality to delicious breakfast everything was purrfect. Antique furnitures, modern bathroom fixtures, beautiful garden and native artifacts made it all worth the money. Carol is very sweet.

We enjoyed our stay at Big Bear B & B. Carol and Shelley made us feel at home. We had an early morning departure to go to Katmai National Park, and Carol got up early so we had a box breakfast to take with us. The breakfast was wonderful, and the other people on our trip were jealous of our tasty feast. We will definitely stay here again if we are in Anchorage.
3,0 sur août 04, 2011
Staying at Big Bear Bed & Breakfast is like visiting someone you don't know, while they are still living there - which is really weird. The people are nice, but their living space intersects with your room. People are nice, the food is good, but the our stay was weird.
4,2 sur août 02, 2011
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Big Bear Bed and Breakfast. The owner was very generous with her time in sharing the unique history of Anchorage and early Alaskan life. And her waffle breakfast with all the local condiments (jams, syrups, and jellies) was outstanding and a wonderful "taste" of real Alaska.
4,6 sur juillet 25, 2011
Carol's home is like an Alaskan museum of natural history. Her breakfast is unsurpassed. Her monolog of Alaskan and local history, while serving sourdough waffles, topped with a variety of backyard grown fruit highlighted with spiced reindeer sausage created a memory that cannot be matched in a commercial hotel or restaurant. Highly recommend this Bed and Breakfast!!
4,4 sur juillet 23, 2011
We spent three nights here at the end of our Alaskan trip and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. In addition to serving us three fabulous breakfasts (with completely different menu selections), Carol entertained us with stories of her life in Alaska. She has great suggestions for things to do and places to eat. The two restaurants she recommended (Glacier Brewhouse and Orso) were excellent. Big Bear B&B is almost like a museum with Carol's impressive collection of native Alaska art and vintage knick-knacks. This is something to keep in mind if you have small children, because there are so many interesting objects that little fingers will want to touch! Complimentary soft drinks and hot cocoa are available all day in the common area, which has a TV, VCR and large collection of videos.
4,6 sur juillet 22, 2011
We stayed one night at Big Bear B&B on our last night as we traveled through Alaska. The host Carol Ross was wonderful- she showed us around, gave us information about local restaurants and hikes, and driving directions. The breakfast she made was delectable with homemade jams and waffles, and authentic reindeer sausage. I would highly recommend this. We had the Grizzly room ,where the closet was converted to a bathroom so we had a private bath. Very nice! The whole house is decorated with Alaskan goods, for me it was interesting, for others it may seem cluttered...
5 sur juillet 15, 2011
Carol Ross provides a delicious home-cooked breakfast for her guests in a warm-family friendly B&B. We felt pampered and enjoyed our stay!
4,6 sur juillet 12, 2011
I stayed only one night at Big Bear and found the accommodations to be commendable. Carol is a very welcoming hostess, and is very knowledgeable and proud of Alaska. Since I arrived late and did not have my rental car yet, I was reluctant to go out to find a bite to eat. I was very surprised and gladly accepted Carol's offer of home- made rhubarb pie (with whipped topping) and she even included a small snack! The breakfast was truly delicious, and I enjoyed Carol's stories of the history of her sourdough starter, and stories of previous generations of her Alaskan family – It was my best breakfast in Alaska! I wish I could have stayed there more than one night, and if I visit Anchorage again, I will definitely try to stay here again! Karin B. - California

Our host, Carol, was very accomodating. She let us use her washer and dryer and let me store my 37 pounds of Halibut, box and all, in her freezer for the night. Her breakfast quality was world class and she makes it a point not to serve the same dish to you everyday. Her sour dough waffles are great. She offers a 7, 8, or 9 am breakfast and will even provide a box breakfast for those early flights.

This was our first stay in a Bed & Breakfast and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Carol, our hostess, was the best. We arrived late and she and her daughter, Shelley, were there to great us and make us feel at home. The breakfast was delicious and the background information and interesting stories were an added plus. We liked it so much we went back for another night and enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful garden area. Had to leave very early the next morning, but Carol got up early and prepared another delicious breakfast to take with us. We would highly recommend this B&B.

At breakfast, we kinda felt uncomfortable because the host would only bring a quarter of a waffle (four times) so we could try the different sauces. Also felt the host was more interested in telling her own stories rather than giving us any insight on our vacation in Alaska since this was our first night in alaska and wanted some information about areas to visit. The food and stay was very good otherwise.

We stayed at the Big Bear & Breakfast in May and really enjoyed it very much. Innkeeper Carol was very friendly & accomodating to our needs. The breakfast were outstanding and she even graciously gave me some recipies and showed me step by step how to make one of them. You will not be disappointed in your stay at this bed & breakfast & if we are ever in Anchorage again we will definitely stay there. The Aleman's & Simon's

Our stay at the Big Bear was like a living history experience. The home is filled with historical artifacts and tales of homesteading and adventure. The hostess has lived in Alaska all her life and works her tales into all aspects of your stay. The breakfast, pure Alaska, was really good and consisted of "the tastes of Alaska". I did find the room a bit crowded for my personal taste. If you want to experience Alaska then this is a great stay and you will definitely know more about life in Alaska then when you arrived.

We both began and ended our Alaskan adventure at Big Bear Bed & Breakfast. We highly recommend the personal attention of the co-owners Carol and Shelley. Breakfast was a feast and our request for vegetarian slections were accomodated wonderfully. While all rooms have bathrooms some bathroms could be described as 'pullman' type so be sure to ask the set-up if this is important to you. We would certainly visit again.
4,2 sur mai 31, 2011
This is a nice place to stay, and very clean. You have to remove your shoes before entering, but it's worth it to keep the place clean! The breakfast was excellent too. Perhaps I could have rated the value higher, but I don't have anything to compare with it. There are a lot of knickknacks so be careful if you have small children. Also, there are a few furs which may offend some animal rights activists. Our room was lovely and clean though. The people were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. My only disappointment was that the Internet wasn't working. (But she did offer to let me use her own computer with phone card.) That was a little inconvenient which also caused me to rate the value as I did. The garden in back is a sweet spot to relax and enjoy. Overall, it was great, and I would definitely stay there again. I definitle recommend it.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Big Bear. The breakfast were different each and every day and just so delightful and simply yummy. Her cooking was incredible and was satisying and sooooo filling. We literally barely had room for dinner ( we'd have to skip lunch most days) ! We stayed for 7 whole nights and absolutley enjoyed the accomodations and we highly recommend this bed and breakfast as it was so friendly, clean and worth every penny. You can't buy hospitality like this for sure. Carol was alaos so knowledgable and gave awesome insights and recommedations on things to see and do. We booked September to come back again!!!!! We can't begin to say enough, except to say that if your considering any bed and breakfast, be sure to stay here....you won't regret it! Till we meet again Alaska....The West's

We went to the Big Bear Bed and Breakfast as a get away from every day life in Anchorage. For the price it was the best experience. For as much as we would have payed at a hotel we were more comfortable and got the most amazing breakfasts'. Carol is so much fun to talk with. And the stories and knowledge she has of Anchorage is incredible. I would highly recommend anyone here.

We stayed at the Big Bear B&B for a week last Sept. Couldn't have chosen better! The Denali Room was very comfortable and perfect for the two of us and our adult daughter. The accomodations were outstanding. Their living room contained bear skins, a mammoth head and tusks, and many other Alaska artifacts. Our friendly hostesses, Carol, Ross & Shelly Houston, totallly spoiled us with hearty breakfasts of freshly picked blue berries, frittatas, reindeer sausages, waffles, and much, much more. As life-long residents of Anchorage they described the wild life, and local and distant points of interest, and entertained us with stories of their experiences in beautiful Alaska. We highly recommend Big Bear Bed & Breakfast. Roy & Lesey Van Riper, Whidbey Island, Wa.

Carol and Shelley, Thanks for a wonderful stay. We enjoyed the 3 nights we spent in your Glacier Room. The breakfasts were outstanding (especially all the fresh produce from your own garden and salmon caught by your own family). The gardens were extraordinarily beautiful and peaceful. I loved all the Alaskan art and history that you shared during our stay. Thanks to the resident artist for the lovely ivory gift he fashioned for my mother. Thanks for making our stay something that we will remember forever.

Dear Editor:
I have lived in Delta County for nearly 20 years. The people of this county traditionally valued property rights very highly.
I can't tell you how many times I have heard individuals say with pride, "The good news is I can do what I want with my property, the bad news is so can my neighbor." Now we have planning being imposed on us by a liberal out-of-county judge. West Slope Egg Layers had requested that Judge Patrick visit its facility. However, the plaintiffs were opposed to the visit and, because Judge Patrick was more worried about polishing his chair than learning the facts, he ruled that he would not visit the "chicken house." Had he visited the neighborhood it would have been obvious where the stench was coming from. It is my hope that the citizens of Delta County stand up and tell our elected commissioners to inform Judge Patrick that this is our county and as elected officials we make the rules.
The other part I want to remind everyone of, is that agriculture is the number one contributor to the economy of this county. Judge Patrick's ruling sets the precedent that if you claim what your neighbor is doing is adversely affecting your health then your neighbor has to cease and desist.
By state law chickens are considered livestock, just like cattle, sheep, horses and pigs. Hence the door is open to shut down every livestock operation in the county. If you raise field corn for livestock feed, there is nothing to eat your corn. You may want to switch to sweet corn; however, because sweet corn takes considerably more spraying, you will run the risk of "making" someone sick so you are out of business. Every phase of agriculture has the very real threat of being put out of business because of this ruling. So by all means, let's shut down agriculture in Delta County and see how many jobs and businesses survive.

It only took a few days for it to be very clear that Americans are tired of financial bailouts. And it was obvious that members of Congress had heard that message back home.
Lawmakers were so jumpy about approving $25 billion for the Big Three automakers that they couldn't even come up with a plan that could get to the floor of the House or Senate for a vote.
Top Democrats knew the score, and they didn't want to be embarrassed.
"What kind of message do we send to the American people by having a bunch of failed votes here?" asked Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid at a news conference.
While Wall Street did not like the inaction on Capitol Hill, no one should have been surprised.
The original Wall Street Bailout caused an uproar nationally. Even though this is just chump change compared to that, lawmakers had been getting their ears melted for several weeks back home about the raw deal that taxpayers smell.
Democratic leaders seemed so jumpy on the House side that they never even opened the floor to speeches by members of Congress. Usually you have one minute speeches for those who want to speak, and then longer "special orders" that can run an hour.
Not this week. The only business transacted was to swear in a new member and then tap the gavel to put the House in recess subject to the call of the chair.
I can only assume that the leadership didn't want any sour notes on the floor of the House.
Over in the Senate, it was obvious before the week began that nothing was going to get done. Yes, some members from Ohio and Michigan tried to come up with a last minute deal on automotive aid, but it wasn't going anywhere.
You never know. Wait a few more weeks and things may be even worse. It might not be only Detroit that we're talking about.
Maybe it's time to start talking about reducing the transition time between administrations.
It's sure an awful long way to January 20.

Keep in mind that this is only a guideline to what to expect from your preschooler this year. Each child is unique and develops at her own pace. There's a wide range of what's considered normal, and you probably don't need to be concerned unless you notice one of the red flags described below.
Your preschooler's imagination is taking off: Playing make-believe is a hallmark of this age, along with fears about imaginary monsters and more ordinary things such as the dark or the vacuum cleaner. She might have a hard time sorting out fantasy and reality.
Her speech is becoming clear enough that strangers can usually understand her. She can use some pronouns properly and follow multi-step instructions. Her vocabulary is increasing dramatically: She'll be using hundreds of words by the time she's 3.
She can walk up and down stairs, jump, and pedal a tricycle. Her manual dexterity is improving too: Your preschooler is figuring out how to open doors and containers and can manipulate moving parts on toys. She can also draw a circle and complete simple puzzles.
You'll see her start to develop friendships, showing empathy and affection for her playmates – and even her dolls! She's getting the hang of taking turns and sharing, but may struggle with tantrums when her emotions get the best of her.
Provide your child with lots of opportunities to play with kids her own age. Give her a chance to resolve disputes with her friends, but be ready to step in and facilitate sharing or taking turns. She'll need help figuring out how to solve problems and how to handle her emotions.
Play learning games: Count stairs together, ask her to find matching toys, and name body parts. Pretend play may help her sort through emotions, but let her direct the play. Make sure she gets plenty of time outside to run, hop, pedal, and freely explore.
Set simple and clear limits and follow through with consequences calmly and consistently. Be sure to praise her when she behaves well.
Stay on top of her evolving skills and childproof your home accordingly.
She might be ready to move from her crib to a bed near her third birthday. Watch for signs that your preschooler is ready for toilet training.
Each child develops at her own pace, but talk to your child's doctor if your preschooler still:

Are touch-and-goes a good idea during flight training?
William F. Ball has been an active flight instructor for 30 years and a designated pilot examiner (DPE) for 21 years. He conducts testing and certification activities for all FAA certificates and ratings. He has given more than 8,000 hours of flight instruction and is currently an instructor for SimCom, teaching in the Cessna Citation CE-500 and CE-525 jet programs. He says:
A question often arises about the practice of doing touch-and-goes during flight training. The proponents of this practice will say that by doing touch-and-goes, more practice can be gained in a given flight lesson. Albeit well meaning, I feel this premise is flawed. We must impress upon new students that each takeoff and landing is a unique experience with a beginning and an end. We must teach them to properly land before attempting a subsequent takeoff.
In a typical light training airplane being flown by a student there are many components that must be instilled firmly to ensure safe operation. A typical light airplane in the landing phase is configured with flaps extended, trim set to the landing airspeed and, in most light airplanes, carburetor heat applied. The airplane is in a landing attitude. To immediately transition to a takeoff configuration upon touchdown is at least counterproductive and at most inherently dangerous.
After a landing the student should taxi off the assigned runway, cross the hold line, stop and perform the after-landing checklist. This will provide him/her the opportunity to reconfigure the airplane appropriately and to ensure all controls and trims are reset.
The instructor can take advantage of this opportunity to brief the student on the approach and landing, and provide valuable insight and critique on points well executed as well as those areas that need further attention.
Safety must be the primary concern. In my opinion, touch-and-goes for a new student undergoing flight training are fraught with potential pitfalls. As an aside, neither the Practical Test Standards (PTS) nor the Airplane Flying Handbook published by the FAA addresses the issue of touch-and-goes. Let's give the takeoff and the landing the respect they deserve and teach them as separate but equal components of this most vital aspect of learning to fly.
David Larkin is assistant chief flight instructor at Northway Aviation, a Part 141 flight school in Everett, Washington. He has been a CFI for 10 years and also holds instrument and multiengine instructor ratings. He earned the Gold Seal in 2008. Surrounded by technically advanced aircraft, he still enjoys teaching landings. He says:
Touch-and-go landings are a valuable tool in flight training, and allow students to practice the many elements of flying a good approach without incurring the time and expense of taxiing back for every repetition. Making the landing itself a touch-and-go allows many more repetitions of the approach and landing procedures per hour flown.

Polymer Clay Clown
Since discovering polymer clay, Tami Molar of Tustin, Calif., has used it to add to her clown collection.
Print Options
CloseE-mail This Page to Your Friends
A link to %this page% was e-mailed
Tami Molar never really liked making arts and crafts as a child, but when her stepmother dragged her into a crafting store some years ago, she discovered polymer clay — and has been baking ever since. She found a way to add to her extensive collection of clowns by creating her own out of polymer clay.
Materials and Tools:
Sculpey clay: green, yellow, red, orange, white
thin, bendable wire
heart-shaped wood for stand
round and star beads
acrylics: magenta, blue, red, green, black
needle tool and various clay/sculpting tools
1. Start by making the head. Sculpt chin and eyes (push clay eyeballs into head and attach eyelids on top of eyes).
2. Attach nose (push in nostrils) and create a neck. Insert thin wire into head and neck for stability. Make sure it's long enough to go through body.
3. Make body with yellow clay in a rectangular, thin shape. Attach head and neck to body.
4. Roll out one green and one orange leg and push into body. Insert wire for stability.
5. Create arms with one green and one orange piece of clay. Make sure the color of the legs and the arms are on opposite sides (right arm green, right leg orange, and vice versa).
6. Position arms as if they are holding something. Create hands with white clay.
7. Create feet with red clay. Create hair with orange clay in small thinned out pieces on the head; then scrape with a needle tool to add texture.
8. Create collar with yellow, orange and green pieces of clay shaped like triangles. Layer around neck.
9. Create hat with three coned pieces of green clay. Then cut a "headband" piece of yellow clay to go around green cones. Add orange balls to tips of green hat.
10. Create belt by rolling out pieces of orange, green, and yellow clay, braiding them, and letting the rest hang down at his side.
11. To make him "juggle": Roll three balls, one green, one yellow, and one a combo of all three colors. Bend a wire and thread the three balls in place.
12. Bake separately from clown. Punch holes into hands to glue in later.
13. Heat oven to 275 F degrees. Stand clown against mug with foil and secure in place. Bake for 15 minutes and let cool outside of oven.
14. To paint: Go over the white parts of the clown (face, hands) with white paint. Paint facial features like makeup (red cheeks and lips, eye color, clown makeup around eyes).
15. Paint costume, leaving orange clay as is, only painting the yellow and green. Paint blue stars on yellow with pink dots and pink moons on the green clay with blue dots.
16. Paint stand he will stand on yellow. Let dry. Mount clown on stand with household glue.
17. Add embellishments (beads, stars, star on ball, etc.), add your signature, and don't forget the date.

Numerical analysis of ryanodine receptor activation by L-type channel activity in the cardiac muscle diad Biophysical Journal, Volume 73, Issue 1, 1 July 1997, Pages 112-122 M.B. Cannell and C. Soeller Abstract Computer simulations were used to examine the response of ryanodine receptors (RyRs) to the sarcolemmal calcium influx via L-type calcium channels (DHPRs). The effects of ryanodine receptor organization, diad geometry, DHPR single-channel current, and DHPR gating were examined. In agreement with experimental findings, the simulations showed that RyRs can respond rapidly (approximately 0.4 ms) to calcium influx via DHPRs. The responsiveness of the RyR depends on the geometrical arrangement between the RyRs and the DHPR in the diad, with wider diads being generally less responsive. When the DHPR single-channel current is small (approximately 25 fA), the organization of RyRs into small clusters results in an improved responsiveness. With experimentally observed DHPR mean open and closed times (0.17 ms and 4 ms, respectively) it is the first opening of the DHPR that is most likely to activate the RyR. A measure of the efficiency (Q) by which DHPR gating evokes sarcoplasmic reticulum release is defined. Q is at maximum for tau approximately 0.3 ms, and we interpret this finding in terms of the "tuning" of DHPR gating to RyR response. If certain cardiac myopathies are associated with a mismatch in the "tuning," then modification of DHPR gating with drugs to "retune" calcium-induced calcium release should be possible.

Modeling Gain and Gradedness of Ca Release in the Functional Unit of the Cardiac Diadic Space Biophysical Journal, Volume 77, Issue 4, 1 October 1999, Pages 1871-1884 John J. Rice, M. Saleet Jafri and Raimond L. Winslow Abstract A model of the functional release unit (FRU) in rat cardiac muscle consisting of one dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) and eight ryanodine receptor (RyR) channels, and the volume surrounding them, is formulated. It is assumed that no spatial [Ca2+] gradients exist in this volume, and that each FRU acts independently. The model is amenable to systematic parameter studies in which FRU dynamics are simulated at the channel level using Monte Carlo methods with Ca2+ concentrations simulated by numerical integration of a coupled system of differential equations. Using stochastic methods, Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) shows both high gain and graded Ca2+ release that is robust when parameters are varied. For a single DHPR opening, the resulting RyR Ca2+ release flux is insensitive to the DHPR open duration, and is determined principally by local sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ load, consistent with experimental data on Ca2+ sparks. In addition, single RyR openings are effective in triggering Ca2+ release from adjacent RyRs only when open duration is long and SR Ca2+ load is high. This indicates relatively low coupling between RyRs, and suggests a mechanism that limits the regenerative spread of RyR openings. The results also suggest that adaptation plays an important modulatory role in shaping Ca2+ release duration and magnitude, but is not solely responsible for terminating Ca2+ release. Results obtained with the stochastic model suggest that high gain and gradedness can occur by the recruitment of independent FRUs without requiring spatial [Ca2+] gradients within a functional unit or cross-coupling between adjacent functional units.

Moment Closure for Local Control Models of Calcium-Induced Calcium Release in Cardiac Myocytes Biophysical Journal, Volume 95, Issue 4, 15 August 2008, Pages 1689-1703 George S.B. Williams, Marco A. Huertas, Eric A. Sobie, M. Saleet Jafri and Gregory D. Smith Abstract In prior work, we introduced a probability density approach to modeling local control of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release in cardiac myocytes, where we derived coupled advection-reaction equations for the time-dependent bivariate probability density of subsarcolemmal subspace and junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) [Ca2+] conditioned on Ca2+ release unit (CaRU) state. When coupled to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) for the bulk myoplasmic and network SR [Ca2+], a realistic but minimal model of cardiac excitation-contraction coupling was produced that avoids the computationally demanding task of resolving spatial aspects of global Ca2+ signaling, while accurately representing heterogeneous local Ca2+ signals in a population of diadic subspaces and junctional SR depletion domains. Here we introduce a computationally efficient method for simulating such whole cell models when the dynamics of subspace [Ca2+] are much faster than those of junctional SR [Ca2+]. The method begins with the derivation of a system of ODEs describing the time-evolution of the moments of the univariate probability density functions for junctional SR [Ca2+] jointly distributed with CaRU state. This open system of ODEs is then closed using an algebraic relationship that expresses the third moment of junctional SR [Ca2+] in terms of the first and second moments. In simulated voltage-clamp protocols using 12-state CaRUs that respond to the dynamics of both subspace and junctional SR [Ca2+], this moment-closure approach to simulating local control of excitation-contraction coupling produces high-gain Ca2+ release that is graded with changes in membrane potential, a phenomenon not exhibited by common pool models. Benchmark simulations indicate that the moment-closure approach is nearly 10,000-times more computationally efficient than corresponding Monte Carlo simulations while leading to nearly identical results. We conclude by applying the moment-closure approach to study the restitution of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release during simulated two-pulse voltage-clamp protocols. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (568 kb) |

Research Article
C. Soeller and M.B. Cannell
Computer simulation was used to investigate the calcium levels after sarcolemmal calcium influx through L-type calcium channels (DHPRs) into the narrow diadic space of cardiac muscle. The effect of various cytosolic and membranebound buffers, diad geometry, DHPR properties (open time and current), and surface charge were examined. The simulations showed that phospholipid binding sites on the sarcolemmal membrane are the major buffer affecting free calcium ([Ca2+]) levels in the diad. The inclusion of surface charge effects calculated from Gouy-Chapman theory resulted in a marked decrease in [Ca2+] levels at all times and a faster decay of [Ca2+] after termination of DHPR influx. For a DHPR current of 200 fA, [Ca2+] at the center of the diad reached peak levels of approximately 73 microM. In larger diads (> or = 400 nm diameter), [Ca2+] decayed more slowly than in smaller diads (100–200 nm diameter), although peak [Ca2+] levels reached during typical DHPR open times were similar. For a wide range of DHPR single-channel current magnitudes (Ica = 25–200 fA), [Ca2+] levels in the diad were approximately proportional to ICa. The decrease in calculated [Ca2+] levels due to the effects of surface charge can be interpreted as resulting from an effective "volume expansion" of the diad space. Furthermore, the layer of increased [Ca2+] close to the sarcolemmal membrane can act as a fast buffer.
