I'm new to DQ and I just played my first game today. What a truly fun game!
I really enjoyed it. My GF and I played two Heroes each.
One of my Heroes was late getting to the treasure chamber (about 25% of turns left) and was desperate to get some loot! After waking the dragon once I left/escaped the chamger with plans to return to a reshuffled deck but was sadly killed by my unstable potion.
My other Hero had a good amount of loot. Not enough to win but she was the first (and with a good lead) on her way out. I was hoping the others wouldn't make it out in time... With no clear route out she entered the catacombs tripped a trap (explosion) and died.
My girlfriend's Heroes racked up around $4k and 5k in loot and both made it out of the dungeon. She enjoyed the game.
I did notice that even though combat was mechanically fine it didn't seem to fit the rest of the game. It really slowed things down. I'll likely stick with the combat but I'll also try out FFG's combat alternative.
Very fun game!

[1725] Pulmonary Hypertension in Cirrhosis, Study of 22 Autopsy Cases.
Nahal Boroumand, Gregory White, Erica Gregonis, Alexander Duarte, Abida Haque. University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston; Methodist Hospital, Houston
Background: Portopulmonary hypertension (POPH) is a form of pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with portal hypertension with or without underlying liver disease. Previous autopsy studies have reported a prevalence of pulmonary hypertension in a population with cirrhosis or portal hypertension to vary between 0.25% and 0.73%. However, prospective hemodynamic studies indicate the prevalence of POPH to be 2-4 % in patients with severe liver disease and 5-10 % in patients being evaluated for liver transplantation. The discrepancy in these prevalence rates is unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of POPH in a group of subjects with cirrhosis undergoing a post mortem examination.
Design: The electronic autopsy data base at the University of Texas Medical Branch was examined from 1996-2009 for subjects with post mortem findings of cirrhosis. We selected those subjects with the following gross anatomical findings right ventricular hypertrophy, right ventricular dilation, and pulmonary artery atheromas or microscopic histology indicative of pulmonary vascular disease. Subsequently, those subjects with cirrhosis and pulmonary hypertension were identified and the microscopic histology of liver and lung examined by two pulmonary pathologists.
Results: We identified 256 subjects with cirrhosis. From this cohort, 36 subjects with cirrhosis and right ventricular pathology or pulmonary vascular disease were identified. However, 14 patients were excluded from further analysis due to missing pathology (n=8), absent clinical history (3) or a clinical history of left ventricular systolic dysfunction (n=3) resulting in a final cohort of 22 subjects. The mean age of the final cohort was 50 ± 8.3 years with 17 males and 5 females. Cirrhosis was recognized 5.9 ± 5.5 yrs before death. Eight subjects were known to have right ventricular hypertrophy or pulmonary hypertension before death for a mean time of 0.8 ± 0.8 yrs. Mean cardiac weight was 518 ± 237 grams and mean liver weight was 1366 ± 372 grams. Cirrhosis was identified in all hepatic histology sections. The pulmonary vascular histology revealed intimal hyperplasia (91 %), precapillary vessel dilation (59 %), plexiform lesions (77 %) and vascular necrosis (14 %).
Conclusions: In the current autopsy study, we observed the prevalence of POPH 8.9 % to be greater than prior autopsy series and similar to prospective hemodynamic studies.

"Elephant Nose" Sniffs for Genetically Modified Stuff in Your Food
Genetically-modified foods are becoming more common as world crop production falls while the population continues to balloon.
Scientists say they're completely safe, but if you're not comfortable with chomping down food that's partially laboratory-made, then you might find the Elephant Nose concept interesting.
It's a small, pen-shaped device that "smells" your food for the presence of any genetically modified organisms. Its designer, Junhyun Kim, explains: "Many people are concerned about the health effects associated with the consumption of GMOs. Elephant Nose was designed to identify the state of foods (GMO/natural, fresh/stale, and so on) using artificial nose technology."
Information about the food is then flashed on the Elephant Nose's display.
The device, which is also a 2011 red dot design concept winner, has huge potential. What do you think?

Comments (3):
I'm calling BS on this one. Electronic noses can be made to detect and respond to certain volatiles. None of the current genes engineered into plants changes chemistry to produce a volatile. Keep in mind, these are low-vapor-pressure compounds that would be released by the plant. Enzymes engineered in (Cry, Bt, etc) do not fit this category. But hey, the anti-GMO movement is not based on science, so they'll probably sell a lot of these.
You're probably right, seeing as how most people worried about that sort of thing are the ones who are too stupid to understand that genes modify naturally anyways. Hello, mutations?
I think it's actually a gullibility detector. If you buy this, it's you.

11New, elegant life for a DOMBÅS!
Materials: DOMBÅS, fabric, cotton ribbon, glue
Description: I liked the DOMBÅS closet for its size, but not the all-white color. My room is in greys and reddish-purple. I have decided to do something with the doors, below you can see the results.
I have bought a beautiful piece of grey cotton, with a delicate weave pattern of various shades of greys.
I glued it to the sides of the doors, then covered the sides with cotton ribbon which luckily was the same width.
See more of the DOMBÅS' new doors.
~ Joanna – EpicSlav, Poland

Looks nice, I like it!
Great idea thanks!=)))
Guauuuu ! Wonderfoul idea !
I love this idea. Thank you. May steal this myself. Love how your pup is 'helping'
Very nice! I might use this for my sons room:)
Спасибо за классную идею!!!! Думаю, что и межкомнатные двери можно также обновить!
All furniture created in modern style.
Looks great! What kind of glue do you use? Did you only glued the fabric on the side of the doors?
Thanks! -
Thank you all for the comments!
I used a very simple white glue kind of glue, which dries clear. I covered only the sides, as I was afraid it wouldn't be even anyway and the glue would have bled through it.
Love love love it!
Did you really need to attach the wardrobe to the wall?

Stearns Deputy Shoots Homicide Suspect, Ends Manhunt | News
Title (Max 100 Characters)
One man was killed and another was wounded after an officer-involved shooting in Rockville early Sunday morning.
According to the Stearns County Sheriff's Office, deputies responded to reports of a man with a gun on the 300 block of Broadway Street East around 4:01 a.m. Sunday.
While deputies were headed to the scene authorities learned the suspect had shot a man and left the area.
The shooting victim, identified as Jeffrey Schutz, 30, died just behind his home after his wife tried to give him CPR, authorities said.
Deputies later found the suspect, 28 year-old Marcus Barshaw of Walker (seen in mugshot at right), near an apartment building.
"Officers made verbal commands for him to drop the weapon," Stearns County Sheriff John Sanner told reporters shortly after noon. "He did not. He starts to point the weapon in the direction of the officers and at that time at least one officer shoots and strikes him."
The suspect was treated at the scene and was taken to St. Cloud Hospital, where he was listed in critical condition as of 4:45 p.m. Later, Barshaw was transferred to Hennepin County Medical Center; a spokesperson said she had no information to release as of 8:30 p.m.
Authorities are investigating this incident and were still on the scene as of 5 p.m., with a section of Broadway St. E, the main street through town, still closed to traffic.

TUCSON - A study by a UA business student shows that the game between the UA and the University of Iowa last year brought almost $8.2 million to the local economy.
"We champion our program for a variety of reasons but don't always think of the engine it can be in terms of generating real dollars for the rest of the community," said Greg Byrne, UA director of athletics.
As part of an independent study project, MBA student Kevin Wittner said he conducted the study to prove his theory that collegiate athletics are not a drain, but an economic driver in the community.
Wittner collected 1,767 paper and online surveys, and used 763 valid ones, to determine that the direct visitor spending impact for the September 18 game was $8,160,0429.
Wittner made sure to separate out-of-area money from locally-spent money, counting only the "new" money when applying econokmic multipliers, said Alberta Charney, a research economist who reviewed Wittner's results.
"While the number is significant, I think the important point is how collegiate athletics contributes to a community as a whole," Wittner said. "Visitors spent thousands of dollars to come here and watch a game they could have seen in their living rooms in high-def. It speaks to the desire for alumni to stay connected and forge shared experiences as a community."

That would seem fair, apart from the fact that this is far from an isolated incident. Challenge ...

Hello everyone, stopping by to share the pictures of my finished master bath remodel. Thanks to everyone for the great discussion as I was finalizing my design -- your feedback was very useful!
This link shows the blueprints for the before and after, as well as pics of the content before it was done. http://www.flickr.com/photos/dlhorowitz/sets/72157628656699499/ These are actuals: http://tinyurl.com/89fgpgy
The space is essentially 10'4"x8', with the entry door set at an angle. The first link shows the door relative to the rest of the bedroom (which isn't finished yet, hence no pictures). I couldn't be happier! The towel warmers were a challenge, but my electrician and contractor worked together well and everything fell together. The chrome towel warmer's power box is accessed from the other side of the wall it's on, things were that tight in that space! Thanks again for the help during the design phase. |

What a gorgeous, functional bathroom! Thanks for sharing your photos. I like your wedge shaped corner shampoo shelves. Can you tell me what material they are made of? Are you enjoying your towel warmer? I thought about putting a towel warmer in the kids' bathroom, but worried they might not take the time to thread the towels through the bars of the towel warmer. Enjoy your new room. Carol |
The corner shampoo shelves (and the low-mounted one designed for leg-shaving!) are granite, they match the door saddle, the shower curb, bench and top of the pony wall. The towel warmers are *really* good; I have one in my other bathroom, but these are much more powerful, they appear to heat the towels in much less time. The chrome one is a Thermae Bergama (sold by Signature Hardware), the white one is an Artemos Denby, I got it at Wayfair. Thanks! |

Would you share the source of your gorgeous tile? Thank you. Amy |
I'm in NWNJ, and got my tile from Specialty Tile -- second time I've used them. The floor/shower tile is a ceramic that looks like calacatta, Elements Elegance Venatino: http://tinyurl.com/8425y6x 12x12 on the floor, 12x24 on the walls/ceiling, 2x12 bullnose. The gray/white trim is Soho, drk bardigilio with thassos dots, this link except with white dots: http://tinyurl.com/7eo9ma4 And the glass tile behind the vanity is Mirage Glass tiles, Impression Series, Rushing River: http://tinyurl.com/8a5vycn I was going to go only 5 rows behind the vanity, and luckily shared the pics with my dad, who suggested doubling the height of the vanity backsplash. Great suggestion, can't imagine it now at the lower height! |
What a great-looking bathroom!!! |

I really appreciate the tile info! Thank you! |
I used the shower for the first time last night, and am SO pleased! The shower door was dear but worth it -- no leakage, and it felt so spacious while in there. The Whisperwarm fan is wonderful -- stepping out of the shower into a cone of warm air was just luscious. In retrospect, the corner shelves could've been bigger, or I should've added another -- I like to keep lots of shampoo bottles around and now I'll have to choose ;). Towel warmer and heated floor worked wonderfully too -- can you tell I'm a heat-whore? As I've gotten older, I've become more and more addicted to warmth. Squeegeeing the shower took less than a minute, and it looks great! Only design decision still pending is whether to do a curtain over the window. Thoughts? |
Happy to report that the tub has been inaugurated and is also a big success -- American Standard, 5'x32", air/water jets with an inline heater, which works wonderfully well! One major source of bickering in my household is now history: I don't have to leave the tub running the whole time I'm soaking to keep the water hot :). |
gorgeous! i see you tiled the shower door jamb on the vertical edges, which is what i'm thinking of doing but contractor has suggested enveloping the entire opening with the counter top material (granite) but that would be a lot more money. i also have a knee wall, so i guess i'll have to tile that as well on the outside? i like how your border shows nicely at the top of the kneewall, but it works for you b/c it wraps all around the room. mine would not. i'm not doing a border, but a panel with a tile mosaic in the panel, and inside the niches. thougths on the shower jamb and the knee wall please? thanks! |
Thanks! Depending on how your contractor is pricing things, the granite for the front of the shower curb might not be more expensive -- I imagine it's a lot faster/easier to throw a single slab in place than to do the cutting/placing/grouting needed for tile. I like mine b/c of the added contrast it provides, but I think it could look good either way. I didn't know that my pony wall was going to extend the way it does (covering the bench) until late in the game, but I also like the way it turned out. When I thought it was just going to be the 4" edge of the pony wall showing, I was thinking to use a little bit of the glass tile that's behind the vanity as an accent there. |

USL News Release
Tuesday, January 19, 2010
TAMPA, FL – Veteran USL First Division star midfielder Andrew Gregor announced his retirement from the game following a professional career that began in 1998 and included a USL First Division championship and numerous league honors in his time with eight different professional clubs in both indoor and outdoor soccer.
"I want to thank my family and friends for their support over the years; my teammates for being there; and the different organizations I have played for over the years," he said. "It was a great career and I am happy to have played in USL."
Winning the 2005 championship in Seattle ranked as Gregor's top moment in reflecting on his career in the USL First Division. Gregor noted how it was an up and down season for the team and how he overcame personal trials that season. The veteran midfielder had broken his foot, but returned in time to help lead the Sounders to the title.
"I was glad to help win with a great group of guys," said Gregor, who played only 16 games that season, but was critical in the title run. The midfielder tallied two assists in the playoffs, including on the 90th minute game-winning goal in Montreal as Seattle advanced 4-3 on aggregate.
Much of Gregor's career was as part of the Northwest trio of Portland, Seattle and Vancouver. He is one of the few to play for all three clubs at some point.
"The rivalry is great and I feel really special to have seen and experienced it from all sides," said Gregor. "I'm honored to have been a part of that."
Part of what makes the rivalry unique is the fan support, which Gregor made sure to point out and commend. "I definitely want to thank the fans – those who supported me despite the ups ands downs that came with that," alluding to their reactions to his switching teams and on-field combative style of play. "Without them, we would not be able to play this game."
A Portland native, Gregor originally started with Seattle after his pro debut in Columbus in 1998, signing his first USL-1 deal in 2000 after previously making his USL-1 debut in 1998 on loan to the US Pro-40 squad. He returned to MLS in 2001 with Kansas City, but spent time with Seattle on loan and re-signed with the Sounders again in 2002, finding a permanent home in the league.
He returned to his hometown in 2004 after a very brief stint in Vancouver with the Whitecaps early in the campaign, but found himself back in Seattle once again in 2005. Gregor returned to the Timbers in 2007 and spent two seasons with the club before a midseason trade in 2008 sent him to Rochester, where he has spent the past year and a half.
After attending the University of Portland, Gregor's professional career began with his second round selection (21st overall) in the 1998 MLS College Draft by the Columbus Crew. His brief stints in MLS finished with 23 games played and four assists for Columbus and Kansas City in the regular season. His professional career also included a brief loan to the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in USL-1 in 2001 and the 2002-03 season with the Cleveland Crunch indoor team.
Gregor, who also spent time with the US youth national team and futsal programs, is one of 21 players to have earned USL First Division All-League honors four times, receiving the award in 2002, 2003, 2006 and 2007. Only 12 other players have been honored five or six times. Over his USL-1 career, he played 211 regular season matches with 44 goals and 33 assists.
While Gregor is hanging up the boots as a professional, he has not yet contemplated leaving the sport entirely, stating his intent to stay in soccer.
"I am planning on staying in the game in some fashion," he said he said from his home in Portland. "I hope to be involved in soccer in some aspect for sure."
And for anyone looking to lure him back, they won't have much luck.
"Every player has their time - that time to turn the page," said Gregor. "My body was telling me it was time and my mind was saying that was the responsible thing to do. There is no chance I will be lured back."
And as many of the fans and the players in the Northwest rivalry and USL-1 can tell you, Gregor has a bit of bite in his bark.

Gear Question
I am about 6'0ft and have longer than...
I am about 6'0ft and have longer than normal arms, I also have a 30 inch waist and am very thin, any suggestions out there?
Between the current in stock sizes of XL and XXL, I'd say XL. The jacket sounds like it would fit you. The waist of the XL pant will be around a 36" waist. You would have to get them altered after purchasing. Be sure to pick up a Volcom necktie,Stone suit vest, fedora and a dank button-up to complete the kit, do this and you will be waking up in some different places.

Local juices for schools
Published: Friday | December 11, 2009
Under the policy, Nutrition Products Limited will contract local producers, Jamaica Exotic Flavours and Essences, Jamaica Citrus Growers Ltd and Trade Winds Citrus Limited (Tru Juice), to supply juice concentrate for schools and other organisations under its programme.
The policy is a direct response to the need for the country to have an import substitution model for food security, and also to counteract the soaring food import bill. The policy directly addresses the nutritional status of children as it targets schools and health facilities that are managed by the state.
The government ministries that will carry out the policy are the ministries of Education; Industry, Investment and Commerce; and Agriculture and Fisheries.
Minister with responsibility for Information, Daryl Vaz, made the disclosure during Wednesday's post-Cabinet press briefing at Jamaica House.

I know this is old, and I totally agree with not judging people by the scooter or wheelchair they ride in. It is wrong and mean but, everyone wants to be treated equally right? Yes. Then they too, should have to wait in line for buses like everyone else. Unless it is really a medical need to get back to the resort as fast a possible, ok, i get it. But to just run up, after a long hot day at a park and cut everyone waiting in line for a comfy seat back to the home resort, well, its just rude.
Once, at MK, a family with a disabled son but infront of everyone to get on the bus, thats totally fine with me, I could just tell they needed to get back to the room. The family looked really, kind of ashamed to be butting everyone. When I borded the bus, to my surpize, the family gave up their seats to people wh were waiting due to the lack of seats becuase of the wheelchair. They were truely wonderful people and becuase of their kindness and apologies (which were no need for) people gave up their seats to let the kind family sit. That's the kind of stuff I like to see happening in the World!

Convicted marijuana dealer on probation found with dog food bag full of pot, gun, police say
Djamil Roberts, 33, booked on marijuana possession
INDIANAPOLIS - A convicted marijuana dealer spent the weekend in jail after a routine search of his home by probation officers yielded a large dog food bag full of marijuana, police said.
Marion County Community Corrections officers arrived on Charlecot Drive, near 79th Street and Michigan Road on Indianapolis' northwest side, where an ex-con's ankle monitor indicated he was living.
Court records show that Djamil Roberts, 33, was serving probation for a felony drunken driving conviction, but police said he also had been convicted in Kokomo for possessing and dealing marijuana.
As probation officers were conducting a routine search of his home last week, they reported to police that they found a dime-sized chunk of marijuana.
A search warrant was signed by a judge, allowing officers to search the home's garage and several cars, leading police to locate 14 bags of marijuana stuffed into a large Puppy Chow dog food bag.
Officers also reported finding a trash bag containing marijuana in one of the cars. They also found a digital scale often used for dividing up drugs for sale, as well as a black .40-caliber pistol and magazine with ammunition and a magazine.
Police said the handgun was found tucked into a heating duct vent inside the garage, while the ammunition was found in an overhead kitchen cabinet.
Roberts was booked into jail on a felony charge of possession of marijuana.
Roberts told police he was not employed and was having difficulty in affording the rent, and yet officers said they found $3,460 in cash in a downstairs bedroom.

Churchill became the first Port shipper to declare 2003 a vintage year, and other big names, such as Dow, Fonseca, Graham, Quinta do Noval, Taylor Fladgate and Warre, are expected to follow suit. "It is a small vintage in terms of quantity, but, in my humble opinion, the quality is really outstanding," said Churchill founder Johnny Graham.

GSU Fall 2012 - page 29
Not sure if there's one of these started already, but it's still pretty far off, so I thought I'd make one. Have any of you guys taken the TEAS yet? If not, where are you taking it? I didn't see any... Read More
0Apr 6, '12 by Brazilian nurseQuote from forcayThanks forcay! I'm trying to stay positive.. unfortunately nothing for me in the mail today.. When you guys say program GPA, do you consider only the pre-requisites or core courses as well like Sociology, Psychology etc? I have As in all pre-requisites: Chemistry I and II (both lecture and lab), Anatomy I and II (both lecture and lab), English I and II (both lecture and lab), and College Algebra. I also have As in other classes like History, Political Science etc. But I have some Bs and Cs in other classes like Sociology, Statistics, Psychology, Economy (from my previous degree) etc that I don't know if they are looking at that.. afffff... really trying to stay positive, but this is driving me crazy...Hey Brazilian Nurse! I know the waiting period is torture, but try not to stress too much! With your gpa and Teas score you will most likely be in the next wave of letters. When I sat down with the advisor last semester (after I was wait listed) she told me a little about how they rate everything, it is only your program gpa and she did say that you get an extra point or two if you scored above 70 or 75 on each section of the teas (sorry I don't remember the exact number). So just hang tight and remember this is a holiday weekend so don't freak out. I know it is easier said than done!
Thanks for all the support everybody! Tomorrow is another day.. -
0Apr 6, '12 by Brazilian nurseCONGRATULATIONS GSUhopeful!!!! Soooo happy for you!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!! That's so exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was great to check here and see that you got your letter!!!! Sooooo cool!!! Really happy for you!!!!! Hope you have an amazing celebrating weekend!! Wish you much success in the program!
0Apr 6, '12 by forcayThe gpa is for all of the core courses needed for the program. You can go to gosolar and click on student records, then academic evaluation, generate request, and you will see your program gpa. Hope that helps, I was a little confused at first on how to find my program gpa as well. I kept confusing it with my institutional gpa.
0Apr 6, '12 by breezy7Quote from forcayYup, they're both fine! 3200 is 2 credits and 3300 is 3 credits. Apparently, you can only be approved for 3200 in the semester you're "supposed" to take it, but the nursing program will accept either and transfer 3300 to replace 3200 if you take it early. I'm taking 3300 also.Are you taking 3200 or 3300? I was able to register for 3300 but not 3200, I believe either is acceptable.
0Apr 6, '12 by Brazilian nurseQuote from forcayThanks so much for the clarification forcay!!! I was just able to see my evaluation in detail.The gpa is for all of the core courses needed for the program. You can go to gosolar and click on student records, then academic evaluation, generate request, and you will see your program gpa. Hope that helps, I was a little confused at first on how to find my program gpa as well. I kept confusing it with my institutional gpa.
So...... here are the details:
I have 49.5 out of the 123 credits required.
My program GPA is 3.77. And since I got As on all my science classes, then my science GPA is 4.0.
So... still competitive?? I hope?? but not sure if it will be enough.. especially considering my 83.3% on the TEAS... I got a C in statistics (long time ago.. from my previous bachelors.. that really hurt my GPA.. but still not bad overall, right? )... affff... waiting.. waiting...
I'm just hoping that they will consider the fact that I got a lot of the required credits already completed... not sure if this will be a "good" thing.. we'll find out soon I guess...
Congratulations to all of you accepted!!! This is such a competitive program and you should all be so proud to be qualified! -
0Apr 6, '12 by kyuuI'm registered for 3300 for now. But I'm going to try to get into 3200. After all, one credit hour makes a lot of difference when it comes to tuition and fees. x.x
Angela Corley from the nursing department said that priority for NUTR 3200 goes to students that are already in the nursing program. But as long as there are space available towards the tuition due day, she said I might be approved for it (and probably everybody else that are interested).

Imagine your own private ranch resort with charming native-stone cabins, poolside cabana, 140' 4-story waterslide, lighted tennis court, fitness center, full-court basketball, game room, hot tub, river rapids, fishing, abundant wildlife, miles of trails, and plenty of other activities for all ages.
PLEASE NOTE: This is an exclusive private rental (no other guests will be there) and is EXPENSIVE in peak season and only available to a select number of families each summer. Do not inquire until you carefully check the full Rates listed below -- including the notes at the bottom of the section. The new HomeAway Quote system is broken -- DO NOT RELY ON IT. Use the rate quote example at the bottom of this description (press More Details) for an accurate estimate of the price, based on the number of cabins and persons in your group.
Red Sands Ranch is located on the crystal clear Llano River between the towns of Mason and Fredericksburg and is the perfect spot for family or friends reunions, corporate gatherings, or even tennis team retreats. There are four self-contained rock cabins plus a separate bunkhouse, a Party Shed with flatscreen TV, billiards and ping-pong, and a tennis court, all surrounding a massive 53' pool with spa, grotto, and luxury Cabana with full stainless kitchen, WIFI, and 55in flatscreen. The nearly 1/2 mile of fast-flowing, rock-bottom river runs from the deep pools and spectacular 200' red sandstone cliffs (featured on the cover of Texas Monthly Magazine) at the west end of the ranch, to more deep water and limestone bluffs to the east. A meandering path leads down to the perfect spot in the river to set a few lounge chairs and relax under an umbrella while the kids shoot the rapids in a tube or one of the available kayaks. For fisherman or paddlers, there is an amazing 2-3 hr trip that terminates at the ranch which is the highlight of one of the top twenty paddling trips in the state of Texas. The ranch foreman lives on the property about a mile away and is usually available to assist with whatever arises. For horse owners, there is a corral, tack room, covered stall, and miles of trails. And of course there are plenty of lounge chairs around the solar heated pool with separate hot tub and a secret 'mine shaft' cave with a little surprise inside the kids will enjoy. Whether you stay for the weekend or the entire week, Red Sands Ranch is a special place you'll want to come back to year after year.
Accommodations: Total of six (6) separate units -- three (3) are included in the base price. All air-conditioned with additional space heating, and hot water (plus spa heat) provided by one of the largest solar heating installations in the Hill Country.
- A bunkhouse with four twin beds plus four self contained rustic cabins that sleep from 6 to 8 (plus additional cots and sleeping pads for kids), each with a wood fireplace*, full bath, stained concrete floors, covered porch, bedroom or sleeping loft, WIFI, satellite TV, and kitchenette (sink, microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker, toaster oven and one-burner cooktop). *Sunday House sleeps two in a king bed and does not have fireplace.
Included in the Base Price (these 3 units and up to 12 guests):
(1) 'The Fish Camp' - a native sandstone cabin with local river-rock fireplace, chimney, and other accents. The covered back porch includes a hammock and overlooks the river and huge pecan trees below. There is a full size pull-out futon downstairs and two full size beds in a sleeping loft -- accessible via ladder, plus an extra rollaway bed downstairs. The bath features an antique clawfoot tub and an outdoor shower.
(2) 'Lorenz House' - the largest of the 5 cabins, named after the pioneer family that settled this section of the ranch in the mid-1800's. There is a queen futon sofa down and stairs lead to an upper loft with an antique full size bed and a trundle with two twin beds. This cabin is also built with local materials and sandstone walls inside and out from the century old rock fences found throughout the ranch, and includes a covered porch swing with views of the bluffs and mountains across the river.
(3) 'The Bunkhouse' - 4 twin beds and a sink/vanity with beautiful views from a balcony cantilevered out over the pool. Note that access to the detached full bathroom is via lighted gravel pathway.
Optional Units:
(4) 'Riverside Cottage' ($150/night) - This Fredericksburg limestone cabin has the best views of the river from inside the cabin or on the covered back deck from the hammock, rocking chairs, or cedar porch swing. There is a huge masonry fireplace and the unit sleeps 6-8 with a queen bed and futon sofa downstairs and a full bed in the upstairs bedroom, along with two twin beds.
(5) 'Sunday House' ($150/night adults only) - an updated historic representation of the quaint Fredericksburg homes built by the German pioneer ranchers for weekends when they came to town for church and supplies. This luxury unit features a king bed with full ADA compliant (wheelchair accessible) bathroom and covered porch with swing and easy access to the pool area and Cabana.
(6) 'Sunday Loft' ($100/night) - this bunk-style unit is located on the upper level of the Sunday House (with a separate entrance) and sleeps up to eight with four double beds and a half bath. Access to an additional full bath via lighted pathway.
The cabins are situated around a poolside cabana and a beautifully landscaped grilling area which includes a large charcoal grill, huge picnic table, smoker, firepit, and covered 'cantina' with four cushioned lounge chairs.
'Simons House' - built in 1860 by Conrad Simons and currently occupied by the ranch foreman, is a classic German story-and-a-half structure with 2ft thick sandstone walls and hand-hewn oak headers supporting the doors and windows. The home is beautifully restored to much of its original character and is visible at the Ranch entrance.
Common Area:
- Striking poolside open-air cabana with full kitchen constructed of old barnwood ceilings supported by huge hand-made wooden trusses. There is an oversized gas grill, small oven, dishwasher, two refrigerator/freezers, built-in microwave, two sinks, soapstone countertops, marine-grade mahogany cabinetry, WIFI, 55in LCD satellite television with theater sound, BluRayDVD, and iPod inputs with speakers located throughout the pool complex. The curved 11' cast concrete bar has eight rustic barstools plus a sectional sofa that seats 4-5. In the wintertime or during inclement weather, the unique steel and glass doors can be lowered to fully enclose the room.
- 'The Shack' Party Shed. A favorite hangout area for the kids, features a flatscreen TV with Wii game console, dartboard, billiards with a competition-grade, removable top for table tennis, and lots of eclectic neon lighting and funky decor.
- Swimming Pool. A free-form 53' gunite pool in a natural setting that blends seamlessly into the fabled Simonsville Topaz Mine where the abandoned mineshaft, old Mill, 140ft flume, and many of the relics of 'old mining days' can still be seen.
- Fitness Center with treadmill, recumbent bicycle, universal weight machine, dumbells, situp bench, and pullup/dip bars. Also has a sink, satellite TV, and workout towels provided.
- The fully lighted tennis court includes a practice wall, and full-court basketball across one end with NCAA-rated glass backboards and an ice-cold drinking fountain.
- Rolling hill country terrain (nearly cedar-free) with large stands of Live Oaks hundreds of years old and mountain views in all directions. In addition to horses and livestock, wildlife is abundant and includes whitetail and axis deer, antelope, turkey, foxes, coyotes, bobcats, quail, dove, roadrunners, ducks/geese, eagles and more, The breath-taking stretch of river on the ranch includes everything from fast-moving rapids over a solid rock bottom for most of the length (where hard-fighting Guadalupe Bass are common) to slow, deep water at either end (where catfish as large as 35 lbs have been caught). Note that in order to preserve the quality of fishing at Red Sands, trot lines are not allowed and most of the fishing is catch/release with a maximum of one 'keeper' allowed per fisherman. Note: river activities may be affected by current drought.
Disclaimer: Red Sands is a working Texas cattle ranch with inherent risks or hazards including, but not limited to, rough terrain, heavy equipment, deep and/or fast-moving water, wild animals, livestock, etc. and is not recommended for vegetarians or families with very young children without adequate supervision.

I grew up outside of Houston and then received a Petroleum Engr/MBA degree from Louisiana State University (LSU). After spending a few years in California and Australia with various software companies, I moved to Austin, TX in 1991 and started my own business. After selling the company and retiring in my late 30's I quickly learned that I needed more activities than just playing sports all day, and wound up with 250 acres of raw land on the Llano River. Originally conceived as a few head of cattle and a couple of rustic, riverfront cabins around a firepit to spend time with friends, and my wife and three kids, it's since grown in scale, scope, and maintenance to the operation that exists today. Although years later, as a 5th generation engineer and wanna-be architect, I'll probably always be designing or building another 'project' at Red Sands but it has finally evolved to the stage where I can (almost) call it complete.
John Gilbert purchased this estate in 2003
Red Sands Ranch is a unique property specifically for guests that prefer an exclusive, private outdoor resort experience with a natural setting and amenities comparable to the large hotel chain resorts. Although expensive, the total rental for a large group is actually much less than a hotel resort stay even before you buy that first $8 beer -- and you won't have to share the pool with 150 kids in swim diapers.
The elevation (1250-1400ft) and semi-arid climate of the area offers more comfortable summer breezes and cooler nights than most of the large metropolitan areas of the state. Other than the spectacular Texas Hill Country setting, the most unique feature of the property is the layout of the compound where the pool, cabana (kitchen/dining), firepit, tennis and all the other resort amenities, are part of the main gathering area (rather than some back parking lot) while the separate cabins offer peace and privacy just a few steps away. In addition to all the activities, kids are always captivated by the abundant wildlife, crystal clear river, and the sheer number of stars visible in the clear night sky. Come make some memories and experience the real Texas!
Although guests rarely leave the property during their stay, the quaint town of Mason is just 9 miles away with gas, groceries, and lots of shops around the historic courthouse square, while Fredericksburg with all of its shopping and attractions is about 35 miles to the south down winding country roads or about a 50 min drive. One favorite nearby attraction is the Eckert Bat Cave where millions of Mexican Free-tail bats can be seen emerging from the cave on summer evenings -- about 10 mi away.
Austin and San Antonio Airports are each 2hrs away. Mason Country Airport is about 15 mi.

Though it's a local cliché, one must eat at Les Vapeurs and Le Central, two adjoining seafood brasseries facing the Trouville port. Les Vapeurs is the sort of French restaurant you dream—and have nightmares—about: the zinc accents, the paper-covered tables, and, of course, the comically abrupt waiters. The delicate Norman sole (it's called Dover across the Channel) my wife and I ordered was perfect.
Over the next few days, we explored. Honfleur was picturesque: a tourist town, but one steeped in history. It's where Samuel Champlain set off on his voyages of discovery not long before Louis XIV's finance minister, Colbert, redesigned the town, knocking down the walls and building massive salt cellars, a dock, and the visual landmark of the port, the Lieutenancy, the residence of the king's local officer. It incorporates part of the town's original ramparts and the medieval fortress gate. Nearby is Honfleur's greatest surviving building, the Ste.-Catherine Church, and its separate bell tower, dating back to the 15th century. The largest, most unusual wooden church in France, it was built by marine carpenters and its vaults resemble the interior of a ship's hull. Around the quay, narrow slate-front houses, each different from the next, lean helter-skelter, squeezed so tightly together they look as if they are holding each other up. It's best to skip the galleries in town; any hunger for art can be satisfied at the Eugène Boudin Museum, which honors Honfleur's famous native son, and at the eccentric Maisons Satie, birthplace of the avant-garde composer Erik Satie, where a series of odd but amusing tableaux vivants tell of his life and times.
Thirteen miles up the coast from Le Havre is Étretat, hometown of Guy de Maupassant and a favorite subject of the Impressionists. It emerges from a landscape of flat fields and has a lovely crescent beach surrounded by mammoth sheer cliffs and natural stone arches.
Driving through the surrounding Pays d'Auge we found, as Deauville's mayor promised, beauty and history, both natural and man-made. The local châteaux are no rivals for those of the Loire, but St.-Germain de Livet, a half 15th-, half 16th-century castle with two small towers, has beautiful grounds, Renaissance frescoes, mementos of Delacroix, and an entertaining house tour—it remained occupied, though it lacked running water, until 1957.
Rouen has its cathedral, another Impressionist landmark, and Bayeux's famous tapestry—displayed in a well-run little museum—tells the story of the Norman conquest of England. And, of course, just west of the Côte Fleurie are the landing beaches of a conquest that came almost a millennium later, the invasion of Normandy. They have a different sort of fascination. As do the small towns that dot the countryside, like Beaumont-en-Auge, where we waited out a rainstorm and had a quiet, delicious lunch at the Auberge de l'Abbaye, just down the street from the town's church. It was established in Carolingian times and—once the sky cleared—revealed grounds with a commanding view of the Touques Valley.
There was a sense here of being somewhere special and rare, where those who'd arrived before you don't exactly open the gates, but aren't slamming them shut in your face, either. Which is why my favorite memory is not of horses and riders on the shore at dawn, the brightly colored beach umbrellas, the castles, or the tapestries.
It was, instead, our last meal in Deauville. After our first few moments at Chez Miocque downtown, I felt I was being studied and told my wife I was uncomfortable—a large, loud balding man in resort clothes, at a table filled with what were clearly local horsemen, had been staring at us from the moment we walked in.
As our appetizers arrived, he got up, came to our table, and pointed to mine, a big bowl of moules. In a gravelly voice, he said: "I approve." Then he asked if we were Americans, and we established that he was Jacques Aviègne, the owner and a town character, and that years before, he'd run two New York restaurants where we had often eaten. I relaxed and realized that I'd found the heart of the Côte Fleurie, a place both familiar and strange, where I would like one day to be known but was accepted nonetheless, simply because I had the sense to go there, even when it's cloudy and raining.

Mark Cuban Thinks O.J. Mayo Can Be A Star; LeBron & Kevin Durant Train Together
It's protocol for a team's brass to anoint a new acquisition with all sorts of titles: He has untapped potential…he was underutilized for so long…he's an even better person off the court…he's so unselfish and can't wait to finish out his career here. Politically correct answers often infect press conferences, fans get blown up with new expectations, and the resulting hype either consumes or electrifies. Mark Cuban isn't shy at all about talking up his players. He went so far as to say his team in Dallas is better off without Deron Williams. Hard to believe. Read More »

Is the audience--the gallery-going public--the swine? "The title is taken from one of the pieces in the show which literally pairs pearls and swine, so I wasn't trying to be disrespectful," Bernier says. "But," he adds with a laugh, "if the shoe fits..."
Far from suggesting any disdain for the public, though, the Casting Pearls show demonstrates that Bernier has been burning the midnight oil at his studio in order to give art lovers plenty of pearls to chew on. Over the past two years, the 65-year-old artist has created more than twenty monumental pieces that fill one of the city's most capacious galleries to overflowing. These never-before-seen pieces highlight Bernier's longtime obsession with using words and letters in his work. They build on techniques he developed in several earlier series but contain some distinctly new features--stylistically, for instance, they're influenced by sources as varied as pop art and minimalism. And aside from a couple of collages and a handful of paintings, most of the pieces are three-dimensional, either wall-mounted bas-reliefs or sculptures--a considerable departure for an artist who as recently as five years ago was known chiefly as a painter.
It was as a painter that Bernier first emerged on the mid-1980s Denver art scene with exhibits at the Cydney Payton Gallery and the Newsgallery, both of which are long gone. These acclaimed shows presented paintings that took abstract-expressionist motifs and used them in repetition. That repetition, combined with the anarchy of the expressionism, resulted in a body of highly successful abstractions. But for Bernier, these pieces were too decorative. And any postmodernist tendencies aside, Bernier comes from a generation of artists for whom decoration is a virtual crime.
Born in Providence, Rhode Island, in 1932, Bernier drew constantly as a child and wanted to be an artist for as long as he can remember. After a stint in the Air Force, using the GI Bill to pay for tuition, he entered the University of Texas in Austin. "There was no doubt about what I wanted to do when I went to college--I wanted to be an artist," he says.
Bernier completed his BFA in only three years, graduating in 1957. He then moved to Los Angeles to study at the University of Southern California, where he earned an MFA in 1960.
Returning to Texas the following year, Bernier began a career as an art teacher, a vocation he pursued for the next two decades. He first taught art in Houston, where in 1964 he also began to incorporate painted letters, numbers and words into his formerly abstract-expressionist paintings. These early works were exhibited regionally in the Southwest and generated both critical and collector interest.
Like so many artists in the mid-1960s, Bernier heeded the old saw about making it big in the big leagues and headed for New York City, which then, as now, was ground zero for the contemporary art world. He earned his living as an art teacher and moonlighted as a painter. His New York work was exhibited in several of the city's galleries, but today it's mostly lost. In 1972, discouraged and needing a change, Bernier left the Big Apple, rashly leaving his work still hanging on his studio's walls--"and stacked up in the closets." The only pieces that survive from this period are a handful that wound up in private collections.
The following year Bernier came to settle permanently in Denver. He got a job teaching art at the Park Avenue Community Center. "They were just starting up when I came here," he says. And throwing himself into teaching full-time, he turned his back on his own studio. "I was teaching art--but I wasn't making it," he recalls.
It wasn't until the mid-1980s, when Bernier faced retirement from teaching, that he again took up the paintbrush. This hiatus of more than a decade from art-making is how Bernier explains the burst of creative energy that has led to his prolific output ever since.
The Mackey show is a case in point, since the many pieces are clearly labor-intensive. Bernier has crafted his work through the painstaking process of cutting and assembling wood, which he then paints or wraps in photocopied prints. If it's hard to believe the artist created all of these meticulous pieces essentially single-handedly--"I got a little help cutting out the letters," confesses Bernier--then consider the fact that there are an additional twenty new pieces not included here. But seeing will be believing when Bernier unveils his additional works at a show slated for early next year at the Arvada Center.
Casting Pearls begins in the Mackey's large street-front space with the ten-foot-long mixed-media installation "Soap." For this installation, Bernier has mounted plywood letters directly onto the wall to spell out words such as "remember" and "desert." The words have the look of being typeset. But unlike text, they're arranged in nonsensical free associations, not strung together in sentences. This means there is no narrative content in "Soap." Bernier, though, encourages viewers to come up with individual interpretations.

Album review
Medium 21 - Killings From The Dial
Hailing from the arsehole of England (Northampton), Medium 21 do a grand job of masking their glum roots in a sandstorm of transatlantic slacker pop and the salient tones of John Clough (a harmonious croak somewhere between '77 Bowie and The Blue Nile's Paul Buchanan). The punchy "Acting Like A Mirror" will guarantee the youth vote, but M21 are at their best on the mature, sanguine haze of "Black And White Summer" and "Poisoned Postcards".
