BYU looks forward to rematch with Saint Mary's
MORAGA, Calif. — The last time BYU and Saint Mary's met, on Jan. 16 at the Marriott Center, the Gaels' Matthew Dellavedova delivered a dramatic, 40-foot buzzer-beater.
Now, the Cougars are coming off the high of a buzzer-beater of their own as they visit Saint Mary's Thursday (9 p.m., MST, ESPN2).
BYU senior guard Craig Cusick swooped into the paint, snatched an offensive rebound out of the air, and scored the game-winning basket with two-tenths of a second remaining in a thrilling 70-68 victory over in-state rival Utah State Tuesday night at the Marriott Center.
It wasn't until after the post-game press conference that BYU officials told reporters that Cusick had learned earlier that day that his father, Randy, had been diagnosed with cancer.
"My dad wouldn't miss a game for anything, except for this, obviously," Craig Cusick told ESPN's SportsCenter Wednesday afternoon. "My dad was in my thoughts and in my prayers throughout the game. He gave me some encouragement before I went out there."
Randy Cusick watched the game from his bed at the hospital. Craig went to the hospital after the game to be by his dad's side.
Up until his game-winner, Cusick had gone 0-for-6 from the floor. He admitted it was tough coping with the emotions he was experiencing.
"It was really difficult," Cusick said. "My dad coached me growing up. He's my hero."
The victory over USU gave BYU its 20th win of the season. The Cougars are looking to finish the regular season strong and hoping that they can build on the momentum from Tuesday's emotional triumph.
"Anytime you win a close game, your guys' confidence level is good I think their spirits should be good," said BYU coach Dave Rose. "We look forward to a tough game Thursday. When you compete together as a team — and we competed hard for 40 minutes — a lot of guys got a chance to play. Hopefully, it brings our team together."
The Cougars would like nothing more than to avenge their gut-wrenching 70-69 setback against Saint Mary's last month.
"We're excited," said BYU guard Tyler Haws, who scored 27 points against the Aggies. "We're looking forward to that game."
But it won't be easy. Since joining the West Coast Conference last season, the Cougars have earned at least one victory over each of the other eight WCC teams except one — Saint Mary's. BYU is 0-3 against the Gaels during that span.
If Saint Mary's can beat BYU again, it will clinch at least the No. 2 seed in the upcoming WCC tournament in Las Vegas.
What's the key to recording an upset of the Gaels?
"Our defense has to be solid," Haws said. "We've got to be ready for a battle. But I feel really comfortable with the way our guys are playing right now and we're going to be ready for them."
Saint Mary's (22-5, 11-2) is the defending WCC regular-season and conference tournament champions. The Gaels are positioning themselves to earn an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament if they don't win this year's WCC tournament.
A week ago, Saint Mary's lost at home to No. 3 Gonzaga, 77-60.
In the game against BYU in Provo, the Gaels fell behind by 16 points early on, then whittled away at the deficit. The two teams traded leads in the second half.
With 2.5 seconds remaining, Haws made a tough shot in the lane to give the Cougars a two-point advantage.
Then Dellavedova's halfcourt dagger broke BYU's heart.
On Tuesday, the Cougars almost squandered an 11-point second-half lead against the Aggies. Fortunately for BYU, Cusick came through with his last-second heroics.
"We couldn't put it away. You've got to give them credit," Haws said of USU. "They hit some big shots. We had some defensive letdowns. There's a lot of room to improve. This team is still improving and getting better. We're looking forward to Thursday, though."

Recent Bradenton reviews
"Have recently returned from our stay from January-March 2015 at Kevin's & Sheila's condo in Bradenton, Florida. Another great 3 months away from winter up north!!! Accomodations were once again very clean and comfortable with all the amenities one would expect to find as in their own home. Location continues to be one of the factors for us in choosing this condo being that it is within close proximity to gulf beaches, numerous dining establishments, shopping, recreational venues and cultural events. Also considered in our choice is the owners' availability to address any of our needs and concerns, which we truly appreciate. Already looking forward to our stay in 2016!!!"Guest: Rick Date of Stay: January 2015 Review Submitted: April 25, 2015View listing
"One could wax lyrically forever about this home and it`s location within the Tara community. There could be no better recommendation than to answer "YES IN A HEARTBEAT" to the question of would you like to come back here. I would like to say we took advantage of the numerous cultural attractions the area has to offer, alas relaxation was the number one priority on this occasion, and here........that was easy. We did however take a couple of trips to St Armands Circle in Sarasota. A very upmarket area for shops and restaurants..........it`s Fabulous. Being English, we quite like our pub culture. Again this proved to be a perfect location, with two (maybe more) pubs within a five minute walk.......Gecko & Bogeys, both friendly and welcoming. Throw in a quality golf course into that mix, and Tara is a quality golf course. Then for us Utopia has been attained. In conclusion the owners, Pauline and Stu could not have been more attentive, and were a pleasure to deal with."Guest: Ray B. Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: September 4, 2014View listing

The beds are comfortable, there is plenty of common space and the kitchen is well equipped. The home features a lovely pool in the backyard lanai that has been landscaped to provide a private retreat. The neighborhood is clean and tidy as well and located near shopping and dining as well as grocery stores and entertainment. Many lovely beaches are a short drive away as well as other entertainment venues. Although the owners live in the UK, the home is cared for by a gentleman that lives in the neighborhood."Guest: Happy Wanderer Date of Stay: January 2015 Review Submitted: February 2, 2015View listing

Overall score
would recommend to a friend.
Reviewer score
Would not recommend
Location: Great - Price: Not so great
The Raddison Blu SAS Royal hotel in Copenhagen is centrally located.This is its main attraction.The rooms were comfortable and clean, but this is definitely not a 5 star hotel.The rooms are small sized and the carpeting and chairs look old and had
stain marks on them.The beds were too low and much too soft for a comfortable night's sleep. The staff was very nice and the bellman provided excellent service. Rooms in the upper part of the hotel give a good view of the surrounding area, including nearby Tivoli Gardens. The hotel's food prices are outrageous. We did not eat at the hotel.
If I ever plan to stay in Copenhagen again, I would stay at a less expensive hotel.
If you like vegetarian food at a moderate price,try the Riz Raz restaurant.It has a very good buffet.
Would recommend
Great Hotel
This hotel was great! The concierge was extremely helpful and knowledgeable,as well as the front desk people. The single room was compact but very comfortable. Location was excellent as it was across the street from Tivoli Gardens,very near the
train station, and outside you could find the HOHO bus to see the sights. I would definitely stay here again.
Terrific location for tourist
Great location for access to transportation to visit top tourist sites. Also two short blocks to main train station to the airport. Change currency at the main train station.
Wonderful location
We came to Copenhagen on vacation. The hotel was in a perfect location, across from the central train station, Tivoli Gardens and the tourist center. In spite of the central location, it was a very pleasant area to walk. Our hotel room was very
clean and everything worked perfectly. At first we were slightly put off by the design of the hotel, Danish Modern. However, it grew on us and by the time we checked out, we agreed this was a good selection for us. The hotel was very quiet and the concierge was helpful. There was some outside noise in the morning rush hour but not excessive.
Anderson's Bakery has a wonderful brunch. Be aware that all food in Copenhagen is very expensive.
very nice
good choice, great location.
Great view & location,needs renovation
The hotel had a great location and view of Tivoli. Despite being designed by Arne, the hotel seems long overdue for a renovation. There were persistent problems with the toilet running constantly (both ours and person above us). Some of the
drawers would hang off their hinges when pulled out. There were some stains on the bedsheets and duvet covers when we checked into the room. (The pillows and comforters were a very nice plush down on the plus side.) Also, the twin beds were not fixed together to make a full-size bed - they easily rolled apart enough for someone to fall through to the floor.
It's a pricy hotel and even though Copenhagen is a pricy city, I think you could find better value elsewhere.
Modern, close to everything
Helpful and close to public transportation
great location
we were only at the hotel 1 night. It met our needs as the location was great for getting to the Tivoli Gardens and Stroget street. We would recommend the hotel.
Great location
This is a fabulous hotel in a great location, directly kitty-corner from Tivoli gardens and across the street from the main train station. The room decor was fabulous but I was surprised to find that the carpeting was worn and there were water
rings from glasses on the table in my room. At this price I expected those things to be in better condition. I like that they offered free internet but it should have been wireless.
Perfect location
We ended a 10 day cruise in Copenhagen during our honeymoon. We picked this hotel because of its excellent location. It is literally across the street from Tivoli Gardens and from bars, restaurants, and the city's information center. The rooms are
air conditioned which apparently is rare in Europe. The staff was friendly and rooms were well taken care of. Unfortunately, we did not get the chance to eat at the hotel.

The Phillies to sign Marlon Byrd to a two-year, $16 million deal
Nov 12, 2013, 11:03 AM EDT
The Mike and Ike Show on 94WIP in Philly is reporting that the Phillies will sign Marlon Byrd Ken Rosenthal has confirmed the deal. Adam Rubin of ESPN New York.com reports that the deal is for two years, $16 million.
Byrd, who is 35, hit .291/.336/.511 with 24 homers and 88 RBI for the Mets and Pirates. His right-handed power is scarce on the market and, after last season, when many teams passed, he may be a more attractive target than most people's gut may tell them. Sure, Granderson, Choo, Cruz and some others will be better, but they'll also cost more. Corey Hart has health questions. Raul Ibanez is ancient. Carlos Beltran probably wants to go to a winner and is increasingly becoming immobile. And remember: the Phillies gave nearly 300 plate appearances to Delmon Young last year, so this is a sharp upgrade.
Byrd will be returning to the franchise which drafted him in 1999 and for whom he played in the majors from 2002 through the early part of 2005. $16 million is a lot of money, but we're in a world where a lot of players will be making a lot more money than we might expect them to. The real key isn't the money: it's whether spending the money prevents the Phillies from doing other things they want to do.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Mitt Romney is brushing aside fresh speculation about whether New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will jump into the Republican presidential sweepstakes, saying "I can't decide what other folks do."
The former Massachusetts governor tells MSNBC in an interview he believes the talk of a Christie entry is all part of the glaring media spotlight on politics. He says, "You've got to find some excitement. You've got to have some intrigue."
Romney and Texas Gov. Rick Perry are dueling at the top of a GOP candidate field that includes one woman, Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota.
In the interview, Romney says he can't control whether Christie chooses to get into the race. The New Jersey governor repeated to an audience in California Tuesday night that he wasn't planning to run.

Players will find changes such as a solo version of Weather Top, a new horse travel mount to make the initial trip to the Forsaken Inn less dangerous, and some new faction and quest systems. Those, however, are just the beginning. With Siege of Mirkwood only days away, players eager to explore the expansion will find their path in the earlier areas considerably smoother.
The full entry is worth looking at, as it contains four pages of great information on the overhaul -- it's a valuable resource for anyone still hanging out around Ost Guruth.

It takes only a few seconds scrolling through Philip Hitchcock's Facebook page to realise the guy likes to take a selfie.
Those taken in the last few months show him in Berlin, him with his new love, him without a shirt.
Several without a shirt.
Hitchcock is what you might call an aficionado of selfies. Next month, he is staging an exhibit of the digital self-portraits.
Hitchcock joins a growing group of artists and academics who are investing serious thought to the selfie - even if he can't resist shooting his own.
"I'm smart enough to know that it can seem incredibly shallow, narcissistic and vain," said Hitchcock, of his impressive collection of selfies.
But, as he put it, "everyone, everywhere does it."
That would seem to be the case.
President Barack Obama was seen taking a selfie with prime ministers from the United Kingdom and Denmark during a memorial service for Nelson Mandela in December. Ellen DeGeneres set a record for most retweeted selfie in March after posting on Twitter a photo of herself and a bevy of actors at the Academy Awards.
Last month, Vice President Joe Biden posted his first selfie on Instagram, a shot of him with Obama. And a few weeks ago, Pope Francis walked into a crowd at St. Peter's Square following a Palm Sunday service to pose for a few selfies.
What once was an act reserved for teenagers and attention-starved celebrities such as Kim Kardashian has seemingly been commandeered by world leaders.
Still, results of a survey by the Pew Research Center released in March show that 55 percent of millennials - those ages 18 to 33 - have posted a selfie on a social media site compared to 26 percent of all Americans.
So ubiquitous is the selfie that last year the Oxford Dictionaries declared selfie word of the year. And the video for a song titled #SELFIE has been viewed 103 million times since it was posted Jan. 29 on YouTube.
Self-portraits, of course, are not new, going back 175 years to when photography was a burgeoning technique.
The selfie is the frat party version of the self-portrait. With phones now doing double-duty as cameras, it takes just a few seconds to take a photo of yourself, then share it on sites such as Twitter, Facebook or Instagram.
The latter has proven especially popular because it comes with various filtering options to make smiles look brighter and skin look clearer.
"You can present a glorious life, a glorious relationship, the look of glorious parenting and you may or may not be living any of that," said Jennifer Siciliani, a psychology professor at the University of Missouri-St. Louis.
What selfies ultimately say about us was a hot topic at the Midwestern Psychological Association annual meeting in Chicago last year.
"We don't have research on this yet, but there are people who are in the middle of studying it, looking at how people choose to present themselves," Siciliani said.
Hitchcock, who runs an art gallery on Cherokee Street, says the inundation of selfies in our culture led him to his latest exhibit, which opens next month featuring the cellphone self-portraits taken by about 50 people.
Hitchcock sees the selfie as more than a photo.
"It's not only taking it but disseminating it almost immediately. It's almost not complete until it's been transmitted because it's not just about who I think I am and how I want to be seen but who I think is seeing me," he said.
Cyndi Frisby, a strategic communication professor at the University of Missouri-Columbia, said that with selfies, "you're your own public relations firm and can control the image of yourself." The photo is often posted to elicit a response.
"A certain number of likes or comments can translate into a massive increase in self-esteem" Frisby said.
Frisby admits to using photos to gauge public opinion. Earlier this month, she posted a photo of herself on Facebook taken at a hair salon where she just got out of the stylist's chair.
"I wanted to know how people were going to respond when they saw me at school," Frisby said. She quickly got about 70 likes as well as a string of positive comments.
"'So I must look OK', I thought," Frisby said. "And I don't see myself with self-esteem issues."
Stanley J. Strembicki, a photography professor at Washington University, started posting one self-portrait a day on a blog five years ago. Some of them are selfies. They reflect his everyday life as an artist, a husband, a grandfather.
He just finished teaching a class called "Cellphones, Snapshots and the Social Network." The first assignment was to take a selfie.
"The class gets into not only using cellphones to make art but using them as a means of distribution for the artists," Strembicki said. "What does it mean in the larger context of the selfie movement?"
In addition, he and his wife, Rosemary, a psychodynamic social worker, have taught a class called "The Artist and the Sense of Self" at Wash U.
"On one side, we look at the photo from a visual standpoint and how it is structured, while she would say Freud would understand it this way and Jung would understand it this way," Strembicki said.
Strembicki is among those that will be a part of Hitchcock's exhibit at his PHD Gallery.
"The results are absolutely delightful," Hitchcock said. "Some are comical, others autobiographical, others still are bona fide works of art."
Well, sure, says Dan Younger, a photography professor at UMSL. It really depends on intent, he said.
But then again, you can never tell intent from a photograph, he said.
"As soon as I say this is art or this is not, there will be an argument about it," Younger said of selfies. "I would let people decide for themselves. Is it a threat to the art of photography? I like that it's out there and flung around."
For Frisby, the debate over selfies is less about art than prudence.
"For every picture you post, what is your motivation?" Frisby said. "There is a fine line between it being a positive thing to being completely narcissistic."
What that line is, no one is absolutely certain. Instagram debuted in October 2010 and in its first three years 35 million selfies were posted. As more apps come online offering photo sharing options, expect to see more selfies of your friends.
Lips puckered.
Biceps flexed.
Dressed to the nines, or barely at all.

Susannah Marshall
Deputy Commissioner
Arkansas State Bank Department
Little Rock
Age: 39
Susannah MarshallSusannah Marshall is a rarity: a bank regulator who didn't get lured away by a bank after a couple of years on the job.
Instead, she's been at the Arkansas State Bank Department since 1995 and has steadily worked her way up to deputy commissioner.
"I won't say I haven't been tempted, but I have never regretted staying with the agency," she said.
Marshall, a product of Newport, attended Hendrix College at Conway and then Arkansas State University at Jonesboro, working part time for the Worthen bank organization while earning an accounting degree in 1994.
By the time she joined the bank department the following spring, she had already worked part time for banks in Tuckerman, Newport and Jonesboro.
"I didn't wake up and think, 'I want to be a bank examiner.' But as I started at the agency and I started to work in the regulatory environment ... I realized the opportunity to help banks, to improve their condition, to help them operate in a safe and sound manner — there's a lot of satisfaction in that."
Marshall also finds satisfaction from serving on the board of directors of Trinity United Methodist Church's long-running Trinity Presents community outreach program.
