Stayed 18-20th July 2013 room 210. Had a great stay here. Arrived a bit early at 12.30 but there was a room ready so we could check in. The parking is right next door in the NCP multistorey carpark. Unfortunately the carpark lifts are out of action but that's NCP's fault. The hotel validate your parking ticket so it only costs £12.50 /day.

Friendly &helpful staff,with great facilities to make the stay special. We really enjoyed the Pool and Sauna.It was so relaxing.
Bristol is a Vibrant City with a busy nightlife. You can walk around the City easily -theres so much to see -great Architecture,Museums and not forgetting Shopping. We took a bus ride to the Suspension Bridge and then walked up to the Park. The views of the city were brilliant.
The Hotel's city centre location was ideal for our visit. - Anonymous
Clean, comfortable, safe and plenty of parking and very convenient for my purposes. I would recommend it in future. - Anonymous
Excellent location, large parking just outside of main entrance, well designed reception and huge rooms that could probably fit one more double bed in it. Tea/coffee tray in a room had plenty of coffee sachets and tea bags unlike other hotels that would only have one or two. Also, bed is huge, much bigger than we expected.

Data from the remaining 2 years of the CombAT study will provide further information on the pattern of symptoms and long-term outcomes associated with combination therapy vs. AVODART and tamsulosin monotherapies.
About CombAT
CombAT is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind and parallel-group study. Men [aged greater than or equal to 50 years with a prostate volume (PV) greater than or equal to 30 cc, serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level 1.5-10 ng/mL, Qmax >5 and less than or equal to 15 mL/sec with a minimum voided volume greater than or equal to 125 mL and International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) greater than or equal to 12] with moderate-to-severe enlarged prostate symptoms received placebo for four weeks and were then randomized to receive AVODART 0.5 mg/day and tamsulosin 0.4 mg/day (n=1610), AVODART 0.5 mg/day (n=1623), or tamsulosin 0.4 mg/day (n=1611).
AVODART, the first and only dual 5ARI for the treatment of enlarged
prostate, inhibits both the type I and type II isoenzymes responsible for
the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is the
primary male hormone responsible for the enlargement of the prostate.
AVODART suppresses DHT by 93 percent at 2 years. AVODART is indicated for
the treatment of symptomatic enlarged prostate in men with an enlarged
prostate to improve symptoms, reduce the risk of acute urinary retention
(AUR), and reduce the risk of prostate-related surgery. AVODART is now
indicated in combination wi

Weeping Willow help needed!!
My 5 year old willow tree looks like it is dying. We thought initially that Roundup being sprayed close by was the reason but on closer inspection there are white stringy things coming out of the trunk and increasing daily. I haven't been able to find out what this is and I really want to save my tree! Any advice?
"White stringy things coming out of the trunk?"
Any chance you could get us some photos. That would help a lot.
In lieu of that, one guess, is is frass (caterpillar poop and residue) from some kind of trunk borer -- willows are pretty prone to borers?
Thanks, I posted a picture in the photo gallery with the caption tree board. The tree was all nice and green and then suddenly started dying.
Here is a link that might be useful: willow photo
The picture doesn't give enough real detail to tell exactly what the white objects are. They don't really appear to me to be something "coming out of the trunk", but rather, something falling down from above, most likely spent catkins from either the willow or some other nearby tree. However, as I said, can't really tell from the image posted.

Cherry Hills Village, Colo. – Pedro Figueiredo has a résumé that any elite golfer would envy.
In 2008, the 21-year-old from Portugal won the British Boys Amateur, the Irish Amateur and Portuguese Amateur. Earlier this summer, he was a quarterfinalist at the British Amateur and last year he finished tied for 23rd at the Portugal Masters, a tournament on the PGA European Tour.
But until this week, the UCLA senior had never competed at the U.S. Amateur.
Thanks to his No. 23 position on the World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR) administered jointly by The R&A and USGA, Figueiredo had a spot in this year's field because the top 50 players in the ranking are exempt from qualifying
The same is true for Sebastian Cappelen of Denmark. The two-time honorable-mention All-American at the University of Arkansas was exempt into his first U.S. Amateur as a result of his high world ranking (currently No. 31).
Marcel Schneider of Germany claimed this year's Australian Amateur and was the runner-up at three additional national amateurs (Turkey, Spain and Portugal) to reach No. 6 in the WAGR. He's also a U.S. Amateur rookie this week.
Two years ago, it's likely that none of these talented players would have been playing the U.S. Amateur. The USGA did not extend WAGR exemptions, so the only way to earn a place in the field was to play in one of the 36-hole sectional qualifiers in the U.S., which can be a costly trip for an international golfer with no guaranteed spot in the field. Financially, it made more sense to play in Europe.
But, in 2011, the USGA took the bold step of offering U.S. Amateur exemptions to the top 50 ranked players in the WAGR. This year, 23 golfers, including first-round leader Bobby Wyatt, of Mobile, Ala., got into the championship solely on that exemption category. A total of 31 players from the WAGR top 50 are in this week's field representing 13 countries: Australia, Belgium, Canada, Chinese Taipei, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Portugal, South Africa and the United States.
It might be called the U.S. Amateur, but this championship has certainly gone global.
"I think every European who is in the top 50 is here playing this week like my buddy Ricardo [Gouveia] from Portugal," said Figueiredo, a second-team All-American this past year for the Bruins. "He would never be here if the rule didn't apply.
"You never saw guys from Europe come to qualify [in the past]. It's very hard for us to come here for a day to play a qualifier when two out of 70 guys make it."
It's not as if Europe doesn't have high quality competitions. Many of Europe's best play the British Amateur in June as well as the recently contested European Amateur.
John Bodenhamer, the USGA's senior managing director of Rules and Competitions, said that for the past two years, the U.S. Amateur has been among the four elite amateur events as rated by the WAGR, along with the British, Asian and European amateurs. The WAGR uses a 52-week cycle to rank both male and female golfers.
In an effort to strengthen the field of the U.S. Amateur, the USGA decided the time was right to utilize the WAGR as an exemption category starting in 2011. Bodenhamer said it could take three or four years of data to effectively evaluate the change, but so far the USGA is very pleased with the results.
Every USGA amateur championship, from the U.S. Junior Amateur to the USGA Senior Amateur, has an exemption category for the WAGR. In 2012, the Junior Amateur provided spots to anyone within the top 400, while the Amateur Public Links took the top 75.
In 2012, The R&A and the USGA began jointly administering the Women's World Amateur Golf Ranking and it already has paid dividends. Minjee Lee, 16, of Australia, who would not have competed in last month's U.S. Girls' Junior at Lake Merced in Daly City, Calif., without the WAGR exemption, went on to claim the championship.
Lydia Ko, 15, of New Zealand, recipient of the 2011 Mark H. McCormack Medal for being the No. 1 female amateur in the WAGR, took the U.S. Women's Amateur last week at The Country Club in Cleveland, beating world No. 2 Ariya Jutanugarn in the semifinals and world No. 7 Jaye Marie Green in the 36-hole final.
"Extending WAGR exemptions allows us to remove some hurdles that previously made it difficult for some of the world's best amateurs to compete in USGA championships," said Bodenhamer. "A lot of people didn't know the name Lydia Ko last year [when she was WAGR No. 1], but once people saw her play, it was, 'OK, we get it now.'
"It's just a positive to have a stronger international field."
And the players, particularly the foreign ones, appreciate having the chance to compete in another world-class competition. Many consider the U.S. Amateur to be the top championship in amateur golf.
It's certainly among the most democratic. While the U.S. Amateur offers plenty of exemption categories, the majority of the 312 players must go through 36 holes of sectional qualifying. The British Amateur – and all amateur competitions conducted by The R&A – strictly uses the WAGR and handicaps to determine the fields. Players can't qualify for those championships.
Bodenhamer doesn't envision a day when the U.S. Amateur – or any other USGA competition, for that matter – would go to an entirely exempt field. But that doesn't mean the USGA won't expand exemptions for top players in the WAGR.
This fall, representatives from The R&A and the USGA will gather at Golf House in Far Hills, N.J., to discuss the ranking process. Many people don't fully comprehend the mathematical formula that determines the rankings, nor do they understand how championships are rated according to strength of field.
"The R&A and the USGA are continuously reviewing ways to enhance the WAGR," said Bodenhamer. "We are always looking at ways to improve the WAGR ranking methodology. We continue to consider how results are best collected, tabulated and weighed. WAGR will soon also be unveiling a revamped website, which will provide enhanced player tracking and further promote and explain the WAGR ranking process."
Bodenhamer also said it will likely take a few more years to fully grasp how the rankings have affected the championships. Is 50 the right number for U.S. Amateur exemptions? Is 25 right for the Women's Amateur? Bodenhamer noted that a couple of good American players just missed getting exemptions into the Women's Amateur this year because they were ranked just outside the top 25.
Figueiredo was in that position last year. While taking summer classes at UCLA, he attempted to qualify to play in the 2011 U.S. Amateur at Erin Hills and failed to make the field. This year, he got inside the top 50 and avoided sectional qualifying.
"There are some very good players who are not here," said Figueiredo, who will represent Portugal at the World Amateur Team Championship in Turkey this fall. "[And] there's a lot of people who I have never seen before from small schools. They can have a good day [at qualifying] and be here.
"Of course, it's a very strong field."

It also looks at Cuba's efforts to raise taxes and Brazil's to simplify them, and at the pet-care industry in Latin America.

The summer is a crazy time. For most, it means one thing – work – but it doesn't have to: Aside from internships and summer classes, there are many ways to keep up with the things you are interested in over the summer.
The point to take from all of this? Don't waste your summer. There is always something you can be doing to better your resume, your passion, your focus, your knowledge or your wallet. Don't let opportunities slip away and don't let summer pass you by – it's short enough as it is!
Mike Sheffey is a junior at Wofford College double majoring in computer science and Spanish. He loves all things music and has recently taken up photography. Mike works for an on-campus sports broadcasting company as well as the music news blog PropertyOfZack.com. He hopes to use this blogging position to inform and assist others who are seeking the right college or those currently enrolled in college by providing advice on college life, both in general and specific to Wofford.

Today is National Decision Day for college applicants and while determining where you'll be headed in the fall is huge, knowing what you'll be studying once you get there is just as imperative. With the economy the way it is, pursuing a growing job field would be ideal. With that in mind, check out some of the fastest growing jobs in America below:
Would you consider pursing any of the positions listed above? Will the current labor market impact your decision on what you'll major in? Let us know in the comments section.

You probably saw the title of this blog post and thought, "Oh, I know what this is going to say. Take AP classes, get involved in extracurriculars, etc." But there are a few other not-so-obvious things that you can do to increase the chances of getting into your dream school:
Update your resume. Each time you win an award, get elected to an office in a club/organization or get any sort of recognition, let your potential college(s) know about it. That way, they have a full list of your accomplishments when you graduate from high school.
Hook up with the college community online. Take advantage of Facebook and Twitter. Like or follow your dream school(s), their sports teams, drama department or anything else that might interest you to keep up with what goes on there during the school year.
Send a handwritten thank you note. After you go for your official campus visit, send a handwritten (not typed!) thank you note to your tour guide or, if you had an interview, your admissions counselor. Let them know how much you appreciate them and the attention they showed you that day.
Show them that you're genuinely interested. College admissions can sort of be like dating: Admissions officers want to make sure that you are interested in them before they commit to you. Imagine yourself as a student at that school and express a sincere interest in the goings-on there: If you don't have a 100-percent interest in a particular school, take it off your list of potential colleges.

The majority of college students today own smartphones and use these devices more for apps, browsing the web, checking email and texting than actually making phone calls. Here are a few that will benefit most students...and most are available for both Android devices and iPhones.
My top most recommended apps are Amazon Student and Kindle for iPhone or Android. Amazon Student has deals for students on books, electronics and much more and if you are a member of Amazon Student, you only have to pay half price ($39) for Prime membership, which gives you access to movies, TV shows and music online plus free two-day shipping anytime. The Kindle app allows you to access e-textbooks on your phone for those few minutes before class when you remember you had a reading assignment to do.
Students also have schedules filled with schoolwork, extracurricular activities, jobs and more. How do they keep it all straight? Some apps to make things convenient include The Weather Channel, Wells Fargo, Discover and Evernote. A weather app allows you to check the weather outside so you can dress accordingly, a bank or credit card app will make it convenient for you to pay your bills on the go (some even have ways for you to make check deposits without setting a foot in the bank) and note apps allow you make to-do lists and take notes which you can sync with your calendar.
Other convenient apps include translators, dictionaries and games for stress relieving. As long as you don't mind some ads, these apps are available for free (but you can purchase ad-free versions for about $.99). What are your favorite apps?
Radha Jhatakia is a communications major at San Jose State University. She's a transfer student who had some ups and downs in school and many obstacles to face; these challenges – plus support from family, friends and cat – have only made Radha stronger and have given her the experience to help others with the same issues. In her spare time, she enjoys writing, reading, cooking, sewing and designing. A social butterfly, Radha hopes to work in public relations and marketing upon graduation.
May 9, 2012
At this point in the year, high school seniors and transfer students know where they'll be heading in the fall...unless they don't. It's not uncommon for a student to have second thoughts about the school they committed to or receive the news that they didn't get off the wait list at their school of choice after enrollment deadlines for other potential schools had passed. If this sounds like you, you don't have to put your post-secondary aspirations on hold: NACAC's Space Availability Survey has revealed hundreds of schools that are still accepting freshman and/or transfer applications for the fall semester. Check out a sampling below:
The list will be updated regularly here – will this information help you in your college search?

As college students, we make tons of important decisions every day. Our futures are constantly at the forefront of our minds and for some students, continuing their schooling after completing their undergraduate degree is a very serious option. Luckily, many schools recognize this and offer five-year programs that allow students to begin graduate work as an undergrad and have their credits apply to both degrees. So how can you tell if such a program is right for a student like you? Here are some things to consider:
I hope these tips help you out but the truth is no one can decide for you whether or not a five-year combined undergrad and grad program is the right fit – it takes your willingness to research, consult with people in the right departments and get all the facts straight before making your final decision.
Angela Andaloro is a junior at Pace University's New York City campus, where she is double majoring in communication studies and English. Like most things in New York City, her life and college experience is far from typical – she commutes to school from her home in Flushing and took nearly a semester's worth of classes online – but she still likes to hang out with friends, go to parties and feed her social networking addiction like your "average" college student.

Students around the country are finishing up finals, breathing the sweet scent of fresh summer air...and figuring out ways to pay for food and "Avengers" tickets this summer. Whether it's a high-powered investment banking internship or making coffee at your favorite hipster hangout, finding a summer job is incredibly competitive but here are a few simple (though easy to overlook) tips that make you a stronger candidate.
First, do your research before making contact with a potential employer. Know what the company does, what your potential job entails and the names of most major staff members (including everyone you would potentially be working with/under). Now don't be creepy – just because you recognize someone doesn't mean you should shout out their high school GPA and prom date's name (you'd be horrified what people can find on Google) – but use the info to tailor in-person and written responses to be relevant to what they're interested in adding to the company. I recommend Glassdoor.com for good insider information on popular companies.
Second, take what you learned about Google and search yourself! I guarantee you that many potential employers are doing just that, as well as looking at your Facebook, Twitter and Google+ accounts. (You can probably leave your unupdated-since-2005 MySpace alone – even employers don't care about that anymore.) I know I sound like a parent but I cannot stress enough that you should improve your privacy settings on everything. Worst case scenario, your employer doesn't use search engines and you've frustrated that dude from freshman year algebra who still looks at your pictures. Best case scenario, potential employers won't see that "awesome" happy hour/prank/streaking incident.
Finally, remember the benefits of networking. I know I've always felt embarrassed about using a friend or acquaintance to find a position – it feels like my achievement is less real – but a job is what you put into it, not how you get it. Talk to as many people as possible about your goals, set up informational interviews and even shadow someone for a day. Take friends or family members up on every opportunity – it feels like nepotism but they might be seeing something in you that would be an asset to their company. Don't turn anything down just because you didn't apply on Monster.
What's that? You followed these tips and got the job? Great! Just don't forget to take a minute to enjoy that feeling of success and achievement before you actually start working.
Liz Coffin-Karlin grew up in Sarasota, Florida, where the sun is always shining and it's unbearably hot outside. She went to college at Northwestern University and after studying Spanish and history, she decided to study abroad in Buenos Aires. In college, she worked on the student newspaper (The Daily Northwestern), met people from all over the world at the Global Engagement Summit and, by her senior year, earned the title of 120-hour dancer at NU's annual Dance Marathon. She just moved to San Francisco and is currently working on a political campaign on ocean pollution but will be teaching middle school or high school Spanish this upcoming fall and working on her teaching certificate.

Recently, the College of Business clubs at San Jose State University held a Business Olympics. In this mini-Olympics, students from the various CoB clubs participated in many different athletic games and fun activities where students had the opportunity to get good workouts, blow off some steam and socialize with others.
According to the club board members who united to host the CoB Olympics, there was a great deal of planning involved. They had to ensure a date, time and space on campus where the games could be held, as well as find faculty members who would be willing to oversee the event since it was an on-campus activity. They also needed enough of the clubs in the College of Business to join so that there would be enough participants for a competition and needed to plan which games to play (touch football and volleyball tournaments, a five-legged race, a balloon stomp game, tug-of-war and business trivia). This being the bare minimum, the board members of the clubs went above and beyond for the event: They even found sponsors for the Olympics – Monster (energy drinks), State Farm Insurance and WiLD 94.9 (a local radio station) – that provided supplies, t-shirts, snacks, water and food for a barbeque after the event. After the eight-hour competition filled with bumps and bruises, we all left having made new connections with students from other clubs and the successful nature of the event will be continued in a now semi-annual College Olympics.
Depending on the department or major you are in, you can tailor the Olympics to fit your criteria and the great part is that this kind of event can be held by any organization on campus. Does your school have any Olympic-like event like SJSU's? If not, will this article help you in planning your own?

Scrap Quilt Class more pics
Thank you for all your kind comments. This is a row quilt that I saw as an ad and used it for inspiration. I used the courthouse step block to establish how wide it would be. The patchwork rows are about 10" deep. All the blocks are 3-4" and if you look closely mainly 3 strips sewed together, cut and turned different ways. I was recovering from an illness when I made this...wasn't feeling up to doing much but could putter around with this. My quilt friends helped me put it together and get it finished for our annual quilt show. It certainly was no prize winner but was a good conversation piece.
Now I am so interested in Teresa's scrap quilts and she has so many wonderful ideas that I want to make one of each. I look forward to seeing what everyone makes.

As I told Toffel, I am in the process of planning this years family Summer vacation, and we plan on choosing Iberosatr again,, but a lack of response will drive me to book with another resort. We have been very pleased with our vacations at Iberostar,, but this recent situation regarding a lack of accountability is not faring very well on Iberastar brand.

Pacers' $44 million offer to Stephenson reportedly not enough
JUL 02, 2014 9:48a ET
Lance Stephenson is looking to cash in after his career year. It appears as though his expected payday might not be with his former team.
The Indiana Pacers have offered Stephenson a five-year, $44 million deal, but that's not going to cut it for the shooting guard, ESPN reports.
Stephenson averaged career highs in points (13.8), rebounds (7.2) and assists (4.6) per game last season.
"Lance and his representatives aren't sure they're going to be able to reach an agreement with the Pacers," a source told ESPN. "It's clear they want him back and he wanted to go back, but they may not be able to come to terms."
According to the report, the Los Angeles Lakers, Chicago Bulls and Charlotte Hornets are among a number of teams that have reached out to Stephenson's agent.
Some of Stephenson's unusual on-court antics (most notably blowing in LeBron James' ear during a playoff game) could affect how much money he commands in the open market.

Renting a Ravenswood apartment means living along tree-lined streets in one of Chicago's most family friendly neighborhoods. This community prides itself on its charming and semi-suburban atmosphere. Ravenswood encloses the commercial blocks of Lincoln Square, but that busyness doesn't intrude. The interesting eats and shops you will find on Ravenswood streets don't spoil the gentle calm here.
Ravenswood is an affluent area by design. In 1868, real estate speculators made a deal with the railroad; the developers would guarantee business if the railroad built a Ravenswood stop. Since a hundred rides cost $7.20—a lot of money back then—the land here was split into lots large enough to attract the wealthy. And that's how it worked. In 1907. The 'L' reached Ravenswood. Cheaper public transportation brought apartments and other affordable living options to the area.
Ravenswood is known for its independent businesses, charming cafés, and popular brunch spots. You can find a variety of ethnic food options around, too. Ravenswood offers up antique stores, adorable boutiques, posh pet supply places, and other options for shopping. The Long Room has a great patio on which to enjoy a beer on a summer evening, but nightlife in Ravenswood isn't lively.
If you want to spend time outdoors, Ravenswood has you covered. To the west is Ronan Park and River Park, where you'll find a pool, a dog run, sports fields, and trails. More central is Winnemac Park, with a playground, a stadium, and plenty of space.
Most of the rentals in Ravenswood come in courtyard-style residential buildings. You'll also find single-family homes, condos, and other types of apartments here. The Ravenswood crowd is made up of professional singles and couples, families, and seniors. A two-bedroom apartment averages $1,488 a month in rent.
This part of Chicago is easy on commuters. Stopping in Ravenswood you'll find Brown Line trains on the 'L', Metra commuter trains, and 24-hour buses.
Lincoln Square falls within two Chicago City Council wards—the 40th and the 47th. You'll find the Sulzer Regional Branch of the Chicago Public Library on Lincoln Avenue. There's a United States Post Office on Lawrence Avenue. There are two hospitals in the neighborhood, the Swedish Covenant Hospital and Methodist Chicago Hospital.
Zip codes serving Ravenswood are 60625 and 60640.
