OMG _ did anyone watch this - How apt that it start on Valentines Day.... The lady Alison and her husband - I can't believe they are still together... - It will be great to watch the whole series over time
Posted 15 February 2013 - 07:00 AM
I really wanted to watch it, but stupid digital pixelated tv! aaargh
Hopefully it'll be viewable on their website today sometime. Glad to hear it was worth watching!

dh watched it. it sounded completely depressing to me
Posted 15 February 2013 - 07:10 AM
Yes it was depressing - but I think so many people will be able to relate - Yep Brazen I think it's on Iview...
Posted 15 February 2013 - 07:16 AM
Yeah we watched it, sparked some good conversation with dh. He found the couples very frustrating!
Posted 15 February 2013 - 07:45 AM
being able to relate was reason #2 for hating it
Posted 15 February 2013 - 09:20 AM
I watched it, DH did sudokus while it was on but was half watching/listening. We talked a bit about what came up & were both so appalled by the way Allison spoke to her husband. So sad I hated the way they did the scoring in a stage like environment, so cheap & commercialising.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 09:30 AM
I thought it was really interesting to watch. It's good to see the differing expectations and pressures from both sides of a relationship. I will keep watching.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 09:34 AM
I also thought it was really good to watch. I think it will open up discussion in a whole lot of households. With so many 'reality' shows that are just basic entertaining but I think this one has some real substance and many people will relate to the challenges seen, as we navigate our own relationships.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 11:55 AM
It was good to watch with DP. We both laughed at some of the comments from the couple with the young children, where mum was a SAHM and Dad was WOHP, because we could recognise having said exactly the same things ourselves. Nice to know they are common issues- our kids are a little older so we have worked through things to an extent but I could definitely relate to how much of a stress having little kids and different roles can put on a relationship. I hope they work things out.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 12:13 PM
I thought it was excellent and have series linked to record the rest. Dh and I chatted afterwards about the exercise of recording 3 things that you're grateful for each day, and we're going to give it a go.
I thought the resentment exercise was great and made me think about my own.

OMGosh.... the Bensons made me want to cry....
I feel so sorry for Paul...
Posted 22 February 2013 - 10:00 AM
Oh My that Alison has issues - I can not believe her poor husband has stayed with her after all those years!! - She couldn't even look at him...
Posted 22 February 2013 - 10:14 AM
I'm watching. DH and I are trying to get the spark back in our marriage (so far so good) so came at the right time for me.
I feel sorry for Paul particularly, and actually find myself sympathising with most of the men, hearing the women and the way they speak makes me cringe actually, and sadly recognise I've been guilty of the same. Really thought-provoking.
Posted 22 February 2013 - 10:40 AM
how bad was it when Carla's husband said the best time was on the honeymoon when all his family showed up! !!
they have issues - so glad they don't have kids yet...
Yep my hubby and I are watching - really good to get the little reminders of how hard it is when someone is NIT picking at you all the time and Nagging..... VERY thought provoking..
Posted 22 February 2013 - 10:53 AM
I've been watching. I think all the couples have issues and there are no innocents. I am very interested to see how much Paul and Alison can repair their relationship - over the years she has lost all respect for him so it will be interesting to see if there is a way she can regain that respect. I understood why she was like that when they talked about their issues with the kids - it's very easy to see that behaviour as letting the kids walk all over you. Mind you, she was quite enabling herself, complaining about tons of laundry she had to do as no one else would do it. She should just shove it all in a basket in their rooms and leave it - if they want clean clothes they'll figure out how to make that happen, they're not 5 years old. It's an easy answer there. I get this impression of a woman waiting to be saved and not realising that the more she gives, the more they'll take and the less they'll appreciate it.
In the couple with the children, I was interested to see how waspish the guy was as soon as the woman admitted she felt bad about making him feel like a failure. Suddenly he was up on his high horse and nothing was his fault anymore. Peevish.
The young couple really do have issues - the young woman needs to get out of that house and do something. ANYTHING. There is no chance of happiness while he puts his family first so she needs to make herself happy and then see if she wants to hang around any longer. If she can't work in with the family it just isn't going to work for her as far as I can see - her husband lives and breathes family very obviously while she wants a man all to herself. What a mismatch! Interesting to see their end result also.
The working couple - I think they can make a go of it. The guy does seem really bullheaded though.
I am watching with great interest. I love the ABC shows like this - the one with the grown up kids who wouldn't move out was wonderful.

I agree there are no innocents - having watched the first episode only, Alison and Paul were definitely the most troubling of the couples.
To hear her be so outright cruel was like a punch in the guts and it wasn't even aimed at me! But there are 2 sides - she seemed to constantly try to provoke him, to push him and see if she got a reaction. But his denial was so deep, he wasn't giving her anything. I have no idea what is keeping them together and am very interested to see how they progress.
I must say, after watching I gave my partner a big ol' cuddle and told him how much I appreciated him! I can be critical and difficult, so this was a stark reminder of how important it is to consistently show love and respect to your partner.

Some years of serious denial and suppressed resentment. I'm not sure they will pull through. He obviously doesn't want to separate and wants to make his wife happy. It looks like she doesn't want to be seen to have a failed marriage. Not on the same page. But she is trying.

I think she has stayed with him because of the children and the lifestyle he provides. I'd be interested to know whether the kids recognise that their parent's marriage is in such bad shape and that their Mum has such a bad opinion of their father.
I really hope they change what they have done for years and start improving the relationship.
Posted 22 February 2013 - 05:50 PM
I have been watching with interest too. I had a laugh with hubby as we have some of those issues that the family with young kids have...competing who has had a harder day. I still maintain that it is me!
I am finding some of the exercises for the couples a little trite. Great..lets do some jujitsu or whatever, but put them back into their homes and their familiar routines and I think couples fall back into the same routines. But it's TV and think for a quasi reality show, it's done pretty well. The couples are brave brave brave doing this..good luck to them.

Did anyone watch the rest of this series? Any bets on who'll make it? It would be great if they could visit in a few years. I wonder about that young couple..will she be able to live away from her family married to a workaholic who really isn't going to change that much, it seems that work is part of his DNA.
I felt for Paul and Alison...wow, so much unspoken about for 20 years. I still don't think that Alison was yet able to look her husband in the eye by the end of the 8 weeks.

My predictions :
The youngest couple - I think they will go downhill because as much as I think the guy knows he needs to prioritise his wife, his actions won't back up his intentions.
the two next couples - I think they have seen such an improvement, they will be committed to putting effort into their relationship
Paul and Alison - I hope they can pull through. the love letters that they read out to each other had me in tears. It looks like they have made such positive progress, I really hope they continue with counselling.
Posted 07 March 2013 - 10:31 PM
With the young couple, yes he didn't priorities his wife but geez how demanding was she? Get a job, a friend a hobby and stop being so damn clingy! I can't believe they didn't say that to her, he made things worse by being late but so dd she by moping around with no life except for him.

Yes I totally agree. She very mu expected him to make up for the fact that she moved from Italy for him so did nothing for herself. Sometimes I wanted to yell at her!

The show was quite short at just one hour a week for four weeks. They worked with the couples for eight weeks so I'd say it was heavily edited.

The Glow-worm Climapro RF is a wireless two channel programmable room thermostat allowing the user to control the temperature and time of the central heating and hot water either together or at totally different times of the day, 7 days a week. As the Climapro RF is a wireless programmer it provides the user with flexibility when deciding where in the home to fit the programmer adding greater conveinence over the hard wire model.
At Boilers2go we recommend the Glow-worm Climapro RF Wireless Programmable Room Thermostat for use with all Glow-worm gas boiler models for greater control over the central heating and hot water temperature and times. Also the Climapro can help improve the energy efficiency of the boiler and help towards lowering the users annual gas bills and reduce their homes carbon emissions.
The Sentinel System Filter is a central heating filter capable of removing both magnetic and non magnetic particles commonly found in most central heating systems. Common debris such as iron oxide sludge, scale, casting sand, welding debris and non ferrous metal flakes that can cause the premature failure of valves and pumps as well as significantly reducing the energy efficiency of the boiler and central heating system. A reduction in efficiency is caused by build-up of deposits forming blockages which means the boiler has to work harder to compensate and so increases fuel consumption causing a rise in fuel bills and carbon emissions. As well as affecting the efficiency of the system these deposits can also cause corrosion and erosion of radiators, pipework and heat exchangers which can be costly to repair or replace.
Benefits and features:
At Boilers2go we highly recommend the Sentinel System Filter 22m for central heating system using 22mm pipe to protect the central heating system from costly repairs and reduced efficiency. By using the Sentinel System Filter you can ensure that the optimum running efficiency of the boiler and heating system is maintained for the life of the boiler and system. Also the Sentinel System Filter can prolong the life of the boiler and system providing the user with peace of mind.

If he wants to head to the mall...
Since your crush suggested a
more public hangout, he could be feeling nervous about being alone with you or
having enough things to say. To avoid an awk scenario, the mall was this shy
guy's perfect solution—it's busy, exciting and if conversation screeches to a
halt, you can always go people-watching or hit up the food court for some cheap
grub. Take this date as a sign that he likes you, but he's a little worried
about getting too serious too quickly. This guy may be in total need of a
confidence boost, but he wants to set you two up for a good time. He's caring,
sweet, and doesn't want to make ya uncomfortable. Def stick around for the
second date!
If he offers a classic dinner-date...
you've got a real sweetie on your hands! This guy is doing things the
old-fashioned way, and we think that's super cute. Going out to dinner is the
perfect way to show he's serious about you, and that your relationship is more
than just a flirty fling. This is the kind of guy who proves that a little bit
of manners go a long way. He's very reliable, and once he has you, he'll
support you through whatever challenges come your way. Just make sure he knows
that you're noticing his classic kindness. We always appreciate a true
gentleman—total keeper!
If he asks you to take a stroll in the park...
Your crush is telling you
there's only one thing on his mind: you. A relaxing walk has no distractions,
and it will let you two lovebirds focus on getting to know each other better.
What a great way to break the ice and let the romance rise! He's thoughtful,
charming and really cares about your feelings. But make sure you both agree

How to Use Massage Techniques for Sciatica Pain Relief
Persons suffering from
seek pain relief in different ways. In some cases, where patients are suffering from acute pain, medications can provide relief. In extreme cases, epidural injections and even surgery may be suggested. Even after all these treatments, for long term relief from
pain, people do turn to sciatic stretches as also look for various massage techniques for

User Ratings 4.9 / 5
There may be many reasons for sciatic pain - it could be caused by some irritation in the 5 nerve points leading to the sciatic nerve, irritation or compression in the sciatic nerve itself or because of some tightening in the vicinity of the Piriformis muscle. Irrespective of the cause, it has been found that massage therapy helps all these conditions. Massage therapy helps in relaxing muscles and improving ones' posture. This also relieves the pressure on the various nerve points as well as the sciatic nerve. Depending on how acute the pain is as also what stage of treatment one is, there are different massage techniques that one can try.
Usually, the kind of massage you get will depend on the exact cause of your sciatic pain. So, before you start on a massage therapy, meet an expert who will understand your condition better and advise you on what massage techniques will suit you best. Massage therapy usually starts by hands-on assessment of the lower back area and buttock area. The main source of pain is usually the lower back muscles. The therapist will massage the lower back muscles as well as the hip rotators to relax them and bring relief from the pain. The Piriformis muscles are also concentrated on by slowly starting along the sacrum edge. The pressure and technique is adjusted depending on the person and how well he is responding to the massage. At times, such deep massaging is not required and just gentle vibrations on the sacrum and buttock also prove very effective.

What People Said About
Sciatica Treatment
Sciatol really worked for me. After 2 weeks my shooting leg pain is gone and I feel so much better. Thank you!!!
" Daniel
It is important that the patient and therapist share an open and healthy relationship as a therapist will have to modify his technique depending on how the patient is responding. The patient has to be comfortable with the therapist and stay in a relaxed state of mind during session to allow for the full benefits of the massage. They have to be constantly communicating with each other especially during massage sessions so that the therapist understands if the patient is finding the massage beneficial, if so, what area is it helping and how effective is it. This is true specially, at key points, like in the lower back areas where the therapist may prompt the patient to inform him of how he or she feels. With constant feedback, the therapist may adjust his style as also the technique to better benefit the patient.
It has been found that for many people, even those with chronic sciatica, massage techniques have provided significant and long-lasting relief. It has to be noted that for healing effects and long-term relief, these massage techniques have to be performed properly and regularly.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 by 492 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by TomD Awesome Place! We transferred to the Phoenician from another hotel and could not have been happier. The room was very clean and had a view of the pool and grounds. The pool area is amazing! We ate at J&G Steakhouse 2 nights and Miguel was our server both nights. He was great and provided some excellent suggestions for wines throughout our evening. The food was fantastic! We also ate at the lobby bar and had sushi. Again, service and staff were great. December 4, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Mel52 OK overall While all was ok, the dynamic group dinner at the steakhouse was at best fair. The food was below expectations, I had the salmon which was lacklustre and I noted that others who had the steak did not bother to finish it. the staff and wines were ok. My wife and I dined at the Italian restaurant and were very impressed by the Salmon and Halibut dishes. the steakhouse either because of the crowd or for some other reason was not up to par June 3, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Garman This hotel comes up short Three consecutive years of reserving one type of room and receiving a lower tier room at check in. Internet service is an extra charge, at $400+ per night, Internet is extra! Then, it didn't work right! Was asked at check in if I wanted a Sunday paper delivered in the morning, it never came! Great view, check in NEVER delivers satisfactory experience which puts a damper on the entire stay. Place is showing its age, NOT worth the price. March 21, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jefrey3 Relaxing stay at the Phonecian Spent a long weekend at the Phoenecian with my wife. Overall, a very nice stay in a deluxe casita which was an upgrade from our reservation. Very accommodating with early check-in. Bellman Kevin with great restaurant recommendations. Down and dirty Mexican at Los Olivos. Cabana for two days. Mediocre service the first day, but excellent service the second. The resort, and especially the room, looking a bit worn and in need of updating. May 1, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by NewYorkViaBoston Gorgeous hotel with wonderful staff Second year in a row at the Phoenician and we had a wonderful experience. The hotel is very beautiful, and well maintained. The front desk staff (led by Tyler) was so warm and helpful at check in and check out; it is clear that they are kings of hospitality. We ate at J&G twice (excellent staff and food), and enjoyed cocktails at the Thirsty Camel every evening (kudos to Kim for her warm and winning way.) Overall excellent experience. January 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kg746 Fabulous experience My stay was for both business and pleasure (I brought my family as well), and for both scenarios the Phoenician did not disappoint. Spectacular rooms, outside amenities. You will be spoiled at the pools. Spa strongly recommended. Food was good, not great. Only disappointment was bell stand forgot to put a piece of luggage in car, and we had to deal with some difficult logistics to retrieve. Strongly recommended; I will be back. May 12, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Z22Z Great Room, Great Grounds, Great Staff=Great Resort We could not have been any happier with our recent stay at The Phoenician. The room was beautifully appointed and quite spacious. The bed was so comfortable I wish I could have taken it home with us! The grounds are gorgeous and well-maintained, and the food was excellent. But what really made our experience truly memorable was the staff--the level of personalized attention we received was exceptional, the best we've ever had! February 19, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jeff393 always a good place to stay We've stayed at the Phoenician quite a bit. We have family in the Scottsdale area and it is very convenient. Overall, I would say it is the best hotel/resort in the Scottsdale and greater Phoenix area. It is alway wonderful. June 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by cgdow Best Luxury Family Hotel Hi, We have traveled a lot and wanted to express how "wowed" we were during our stay. The staff was amazing, the grounds were beautiful, the room was perfect, and the food was extraordinary. It's luxury at it's best but also very kid friendly. Our kids went to the kids camp and had a wonderful time. I didn't even worry. We look forward to returning to the hotel and are thankful for the opportunity we had to stay with you. April 1, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by AG45 Please Update this property I have lived in the valley for 42 years and am very familiar with all properties in the valley. The Phoenician is a landmark but it is a completely outdated landmark. With the beautiful views and excellent customer service, it is such a disappointment to see the rooms so run down and outdated. Please invest in this beautiful property and make it a luxury destination. May 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by sheaton first class everything was just perfect ! July 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Laura0410 Always a GREAT time at the Phoenician! Our family has been coming to this resort annually for 8 years. We absolutely LOVE it! The grounds are immaculate and the flowers are always in full bloom. The golf course is impeccable and the pro shop staff is great. We enjoy sitting poolside in the afternoons- with plenty of options for sun and shade desiring guests. The work out facility is state of the art. All in all, this resort ranks 100 in our books! March 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Migo17 Beautiful property but a couple warnings This resort is wonderful and the guest service is five-star. Great walking paths everywhere and right on Camelback Mtn. The bed was a bit too soft. We were in the casitas, which are the pet-friendly rooms. Our room was large and amazing. The biggest issue was that we were put in an accessible room which had the strangest shower. It was awful. Would recommend everything about this place except the accessible room shower. September 12, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Bren57 Poor restuarant experience We went to the Burger Bistro (Relish) for lunch soon after arriving (The early check-in was very nice!). We were setted outside and waited. And then we waited more - at least 3 different servers came by as well as 2 servers with food, but no one stopped at our table. After the 1 server came by for the 3rd time and took an order from another table, we still waited. After another 3 minutes where no one showed up, we left. April 15, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by kansch Fabulous resort but some areas need attention The hotel is in a beautiful setting and very conveniently located. The staff is friendly and helpful from the moment you check in. I must say I was a bit disappointed in our room. It was very spacious but in definite need of some attention! The carpet and draperies were heavily soiled, nicks in the furniture and other signs of obvious wear. I expected more from a highly rated hotel, especially for the rate they charge. January 4, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by NandC This was our second stay in Scottsdale. This was our second stay at the Scottsdale Phoenician. We got two rooms, one for my husband and me, and one for our son. Both rooms were deluxe rooms, and both really need to be updated. The carpeting was buckling and the sink drain kept closing. The furniture looked like it hadn't been updated for a long time, also. Other than that, we enjoy the golfing, pool and spa... they're all great! April 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by raya1 No longer the Quality of excellence No recognition as a continuing guest or SPG member. Been visiting consistently for 5 years and no update to facilities so everything is looking worn and tired. Did not have that high-end luxury feel. June 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by melissa58 room Our room was beautiful and spacious! We request the same room each summer that we come. The carpet has seen better days and the lady at the front desk said they are about to be remodeled... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep the light cool colors! i.e. the yellows and pale greens! Don't do the dark woods and southwest theme. That's is the reason we choose the Phoenician. The colors and all the glass are just breath taking. August 4, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by EBern07 Great Resort Experience Having been at the resort before for business, I was expecting it to be good, but it exceeded expectations and was really great! The service at the restaurants, golf, and all over the resort were equally amazing. In particular the person running the restaurant we went to for breakfast everyday works tirelessly and runs a tight ship with nothing to spare. I highly recommend this resort for couples and families! January 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by sara25 Phoenician a great getaway spot This hotel has the friendliest people and bet location in Phx. I always have a relaxing time here. Great food, great hiking, great shopping, perfect spot to recharge your battery. Special thank you to Kaitlin for making my bday a special day. June 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by KathyWPB Truly a luxury hotel Our experience here was wonderful, even though we came during a major heat wave. The pools are fantastic though and that helped! Also, the lessons offered...tennis, yoga, etc. were excellent, taught by real professionals. Overall staff was very friendly and helpful. The spa experience was perfect. Massages, meditation, a variety of herbal drinks and fruit. Lastly the housekeeping staff is top notch.The only issue we had was the lack of options for vegans. If there were just a few things on the menu we could have eaten more on property, but because there weren't and they did not offer to modify the menu items we had to go elsewhere to eat. Also, the landscaping is fantastic but we found it irksome to have the guys using their high decibel equipment on the lawns near us Friday morning. Overall, though, this was a memorable visit and we would recommend this resort and visit again. July 2, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by aew513 Beautiful Hotel Great hotel. My only complaint is the air conditioner didn't cool the room below about 75 degrees. I know it was over 100 degrees outside, but it was too hot to sleep comfortably. June 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dood Maid staff is great I was very impressed with the maid services. For example, one morning I ate the 2 pillow chocolates that were left at turn-down service. The next night there were 4 left for me. I'm not sure if there were 2 extra put there because she thought there was an extra guest (there wasn't) or because I liked them and she was going above and beyond, but it was very nice and a small effort that made an impact on me. June 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chick0618 Fantastic views and cactus garden This is a fabulous hotel. The staff are responsive, friendly, and hard working from every level. The grounds are beautifully kept. The cactus garden is out of this world. Great photos at all times of the day and many, many interesting varieties of cacti. As far as food, we ate in every restaurant. The food was fantastic, although a bit pricey at the pool side restaurant. But all in all we found after venturing out in Scottsdale for lunch and dinner, the best food was in the hotel restaurants. So it was well worth it. The pool service was great too. Every hour someone was refilling our water pitcher or asking if we needed anything. The pools are well kept, clean, and plenty of room to swim for exercise or just have fun in. The 40 foot slide and splash pad is fun for all ages. The turn down service is a nice touch. My kids looked forward to the chocolate every night. The pictures on the website do not do this place justice. It is a great place for adults and kids. There is something for everyone to do. There are a few nice shops in the hotel. Don't believe the negative reviews because I didn't see anything negative about this place. We've stayed in many Starwood properties, and this one is one of the best. If you stay here, make sure to get a room overlooking the pool as the views are spectacular. The sounds of the birds every morning are amazing. We left our balcony door open just to hear this every day. Highly recommend this hotel for all ages. Well worth the price at any time of the year. July 13, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Trainer1234 Enhanced room was very average The hotel is beautiful and luxurious. However, we checked in and were given a room that they called "enhanced" in a "Casita Guest Room." The patio opened to a street that was noisy and one early morning we were awakened by construction on the street. The room was a basic hotel room, we had a comforter that was torn, towels that were far from luxurious and water pressure in the shower was quite weak. January 18, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by KP51 This hotel is very noisy when you enter lobby The rooms are very nice and also the bathroom and beds. Everyone was very helpful and courtious to us and made you feel very welcome. When you enter the lobby, breakfast room, pools were extremely noisy that you wanted to leave the area right away.. We were not happy and could not leave because we would have been charged for the 3 nights. Steak restaurant was excellant food and service was exceptional! April 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by JDCR Phoenician has great mix of amenities I really enjoyed my four days at the Phoenician. I'm a list person so here's some pros/cons: Pros: Beautiful facilities and landscaping (especially cactus garden, which was lovely) Pools, plenty of space and chairs Service - such wonderful bar and restaurant service, especially Sean at Thirsty Camel and Sam/Steve at Oasis pool Housekeeping - efficient and fast when needed Room - not anything over the top, but lovely bathroom and comfortable beds Views - I could look at Camelback mountain view from pool all day Cons: Room was still being service despite arrival at 4pm - know this is sometimes unavoidable but still a nuisance (hotel did offer free drinks) Tennis Center - wasn't quite the premier facility that I expected; courts were cracking and slightly old (still very nice but not as good as other places). Overall stay was fantastic and can't wait to return. Nothing better than the desert in March. March 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by townjcvt Exceptional Customer Service...and Service Recovery Exceptional customer service is expected at a luxury collection hotel. How the management and staff handle a problem is a measure of leadership and culture. No need to even discuss the problem I encountered because Hanna, Alyssa and their evening manager overcame the challenge with style and grace...exceeding my expectations and turning my potentially poor experience into a positive memory! February 19, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by DPK22 Fabulous Hotel Have stayed multiple times this year! Management and staff are very professional and make your stay important. They always check to see that any and every request is responded to in a timely manner. The facilities are first class and one of a kind. Spa treatments are fabulous! The setting and grounds of the hotel are majestic and restaurants are fabulous! Couldn't think of staying anywhere else!!! June 2, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by rjb3143 Anniversary this resort offers excellent service and amenities. June 30, 2014

BEIJING (Reuters) - A former aide to China's retired domestic security chief Zhou Yongkang was sacked on Wednesday after authorities opened a corruption probe, the latest move targeting associates of Zhou, who is also under investigation for graft.
Guo Yongxiang has been expelled from the ruling Communist Party and stripped of his public office for "serious law and discipline violations", the party's anti-graft watchdog said in an announcement on its website (www.ccdi.gov.cn).
Guo worked together with Zhou for at least 12 years, according to both their official resumes, including in the southwestern province of Sichuan where Zhou was party boss. Guo eventually rose to be a vice provincial governor.
The investigation found that Guo had "exacted profits for others with his power, taken a great amount of bribes and gifts himself or through the hands of his son", the graft watchdog said in a brief statement.
"Guo also sought profits for his son's businesses with his power, and was morally corrupt," it added. "Guo has seriously violated the law and party discipline."
His illegally accrued assets will be seized and he will be handed over to judicial bodies for prosecution, it said.
Guo had been head of a Sichuan province literary organisation when the party began investigating him last year.
It was not possible to reach him for comment and it is not clear if he has a lawyer.
President Xi Jinping has launched a sweeping crackdown on corruption since taking power, warning corruption is a threat to the Communist Party's survival.
Sources have told Reuters that Zhou has been put under virtual house arrest, though the party has yet to make an announcement about his case.
Several of Zhou's political allies have been held in custody and questioned over corruption, including former Vice Minister of Public Security Li Dongsheng and Jiang Jiemin, who was the top regulator of state-owned enterprises for just five months until September.
It is unclear if the government will put Zhou on trial and risk embarrassing public revelations about China's elite, potentially undermining confidence in the party.
Zhou was a patron of former high-flying politician Bo Xilai, who was jailed for life in September for corruption and abuse of power in the worst political scandal since the 1976 downfall of the Gang of Four led by the widow of former leader Mao Zedong at the end of the Cultural Revolution.
Zhou retired in 2012. He was last seen at an alumni celebration at the China University of Petroleum on October 1.

Should generic Web endings belong to everyone?
Send this to a friend
- James Ritchie
- Staff Reporter- Cincinnati Business Courier
- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn
Some of those nifty new top-level domain names that I reported on last week might not be as easy to get as companies had hoped.
The nonprofit that doles out the endings, called the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), is considering limits that would prevent companies from staking out too much territory in what some are calling a digital land rush, Politico.com reports.
A flood of new endings will soon hit the Internet, joining old standbys like .com and .org. For example, downtown Cincinnati-based Macy's Inc. has applied for .macys and .bloomingdales.
The new endings can serve as branding and consumer-protection tools.
But many companies want to control much more than their brand's names. They want top-level domains signifying entire categories – and in many cases, they want to exclude anyone else from using them.
Google Inc., which applied for 101 extensions, wants .blog and .game. Amazon.com Inc., which filed 76 applications, is seeking .store and .buy.
ICANN is now taking public comment on whether it should allow firms to claim such generic top-level domains.
Microsoft Corp.'s assistant general legal counsel, Russell Pangborn, has said allowing companies to control generic top-level domains "threatens the openness and freedom of the Internet and could have harmful consequences for Internet users worldwide," Politico.com reported.
"These applications also present a competitive threat to other companies," he said in a letter to ICANN.
ICANN voted in 2011 to expand the range of domain names. The organization's president at the time, Rod Beckstrom, said the names would encourage online innovation.
Ritchie covers Procter & Gamble Co. and health care.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Old-time cops
THE Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police has regrettably endorsed the obsolete view that marijuana should not be legalized or decriminalized.
The chiefs also failed to offer a solid argument in favour of the country's failed prohibition policies, which have fuelled the growth of gangs, while criminalizing thousands of young people for what society largely regards as an acceptable indulgence.
Police have the option of warning an offender in possession of a small amount of marijuana, or charging them criminally, depending on the circumstances. The association, however, has proposed a third option that would allow officers the discretion of issuing a ticket that would involve a fine, but no criminal record.
The chiefs said they need the ticketing option to punish people whose offence warrants some punishment, but not a criminal record.
Such a policy would help reduce congestion in the courts, they say, which is probably true, but decriminalization would go much further to reducing the problem.
The association said a man smoking pot while driving would normally be charged criminally with possession because it's considered more serious. But that makes little sense. Police shouldn't be charging someone with possession to deal with impaired driving. Furthermore, in a legalized environment, pot smokers could be charged with impaired driving.
The chiefs missed an opportunity to modernize the country's marijuana laws, demonstrating they are out of touch with public sentiment.

The genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors may influence the risk for neuropsychiatric disease through their effects on gene transcription. Mechanistically, these effects may be integrated through regulation of methylation of CpG dinucleotides overlapping with single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with a disorder. We addressed this hypothesis by analyzing methylation of prodynorphin (PDYN) CpG-SNPs associated with alcohol dependence, in human alcoholics. Postmortem specimens of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dl-PFC) involved in cognitive control of addictive behavior were obtained from 14 alcohol-dependent and 14 control subjects. Methylation was measured by pyrosequencing after bisulfite treatment of DNA. DNA binding proteins were analyzed by electromobility shift assay. Three PDYN CpG-SNPs associated with alcoholism were found to be differently methylated in the human brain. In the dl-PFC of alcoholics, methylation levels of the C, non-risk variant of 3′-untranslated region (3′-UTR) SNP (rs2235749; C > T) were increased, and positively correlated with dynorphins. A DNA-binding factor that differentially targeted the T, risk allele and methylated and unmethylated C allele of this SNP was identified in the brain. The findings suggest a causal link between alcoholism-associated PDYN 3′-UTR CpG-SNP methylation, activation of PDYN transcription and vulnerability of individuals with the C, non-risk allele(s) to develop alcohol dependence.

Jack Bauer Is No Longer Available to Save the World as FOX Cancels '24'
The eighth and current season of '24' will be the show's last. FOX is ending the popular drama's run this May.
"While the end of the series is bittersweet, we always wanted '24' to finish on a high note, so the decision to make the eighth season our last was one we all agreed upon," star Kiefer Sutherland said in a statement. Get More Info on the Cancellation From InsideTV

That SUX!!! 24 is the best show on TV. Now they can add more stupid cartoon shows. Fox is messing up. Some viewers aren't
into the really dumb stuff on TV. Why not cancel Bones or those
stupid cartoon and cooking shows.
- Saturday 27 March
Bones is just as good a show as 24, but I have to agree withyou that most of todays cartoons and cooking shows are just plain bad. Not like it used to be when we had The Galloping Gourmet and Juia Child on.
- Saturday 27 MarchBy Jim
This is as bad as when Williams left CSI. There isn't much to watch on TV, what with all the networks opting for the cheaper reality shows. Guess that's why there's an OFF switch.
- Saturday 27 MarchBy jim
I tend to agree, however, the "terrorist is gonna hurt us" plot line of every season is getting old. Might I suggest Human Target, name is kind of lame, but the show's pretty good. Also, Burn Notice is pretty good too.
- Saturday 27 MarchBy j
Family guy is a disgrace . You are right . More cheap cartoons .
I am tired of them all . I never watched 24 . Not my kind of show . Fox HAD Julianna Maruiles in a show called " Canterburys Law " . They dropped it and now she is hitting home runs on " The Good Wife " . Fox also dropped a show called New Amsterdam . Good show but dropping it left more room for more Family Guy . They have ruined House by making that private investigator part of the regular cast . I never cared for the character and I dont watch House any more when he is part of it . Bottom line , it doesnt matter what any one wants . They show what they want

Punjetas! Who's bright idea was to cancel this show? One of the best shows onTV! Jack Bauer is the best and most intelligent character on TV. I hope they do make this into a movie - Id definitely watch it

Cancel the stupid jerk who made the decision to cancel 24! One of the most interesting and well acted shows on TV! Guess I won't be watching Fox shows any longer....nothing else is really worth my time. Hey Fox, think again about canceling 24...one of the best shows on TV.
- Saturday 27 MarchBy Cape
FOX has canceled 24? That's amazing! Fox canceled the only show that gives folk reason to watch the network in the first place. I wonder what the higher-ups are thinking. I hope they don't expect us to watch their news shows. Please!

If you want to watch an even better show, watch "CHUCK" instead. It's on Monday nights on NBC, 8 p.m. eastern standard time, 7 p.m. central time.

canceling 24 is the worst news i've heard all year. the best show on television in many years. please reconsider.

The "Agency" was by far the best program on television in years and it was cancelled after two seasons. That was a bad call in my opinion. Written in part by Shaun Cassidy every episode was excellent and it should be brought back if at all possible.
