RIP, Valley View?
Can you hear the death rattle? Or is that just my transmission?:
"An Indianapolis company's long-delayed plan to build a $430 million racetrack/casino in Lawrence County has gotten some dire financial news and could be on life support. A financial news service called Debtwire said yesterday that lenders for Centaur Inc. will 'push to abort [the] Pennsylvania racino project [and] get repaid early.' The news service said that according to its unnamed sources, "tightening credit markets" had "pushed [Centaur] into a corner'' and as a result, its proposed Valley View Downs racetrack/casino west of New Castle may become a victim of roiled financial markets."
A Valley View spokeswoman said the company still plans to build the casino. If the project doesn't collapse, it likely means that Centaur -- much like Don Barden's PITG Gaming -- may have to break ties with its original financiers and go in search of news ones.
So does this news crack open the door for a casino south of Gettysburg, near the Maryland border?:
"One person who might have seen the writing on the wall -- and is rooting for the collapse of the Centaur deal -- is Gettysburg motorcycle dealer David LeVan, who two years ago wanted to build a controversial stand-alone casino just outside Gettysburg, and now thinks the Centaur failure may provide him another opening. 'This doesn't come as a surprise to me. It's one of the reasons I went public a couple of weeks ago,' he said yesterday. He said he wanted to send a message to the Harness Racing Commission and the gaming board, letting both know there are other options."
... The Beaver County Times version, from a day ago: "Indiana-based Centaur Inc. might have to step aside as sole owner of a proposed horse track and slots casino in Lawrence County and look for financial help from a private investment group, a county official said Thursday. Lawrence County Commissioners Chairman Steve Craig, responding to reports that the $425 million Valley View Downs project is experiencing serious financial trouble, said he still thinks the facility will be built. It just might not be built exclusively by Centaur, he said."
Viva La Resistance!
"Casino-Free Philadelphia, a citizens group that strongly opposes the sites for both casinos to be built in Philadelphia, may be getting physical. The group plans to conduct a 'training session' on Saturday in Philadelphia that's designed 'to teach community members how to occupy the proposed casino sites in the event the casinos try to break ground.' In a news release today, the group added, 'We will practice blockade techniques, such as chaining ourselves to the fence' around each site."
Dispatches from the border
The Donald may have to shopping at one of those discount toupee places:
"Trump Entertainment Resorts, the casino company founded by Donald Trump, reported a wider second-quarter loss as its Atlantic City properties attracted fewer gamblers. The loss from continuing operations was $16.5 million, or 52 cents a share, compared with $16.2 million, or 52 cents, a year earlier. Revenue fell 4.8 percent, to $177.9 million, from $186.8 million, the company said in a statement."
But another company sees promise in slumping Atlantic City, and doesn't plan to shed its big beachfront property:
"Las Vegas-based Pinnacle Entertainment company plans to hold onto its land on and near the Atlantic City boardwalk until credit markets improve and it can build its mega-casino project, Chairman Dan Lee said Wednesday. The theme of the casino, a closely held secret for nearly two years, will be based on a beach house."
... To the Buckeye State!:
"The group MyOhioNow [has] turned over petitions in an effort to build a casino in Southwest Ohio's Clinton county. MyOhioNow officials say they've turned in about twice the number of petitions they'll need to get the question on the November ballot. They say the planned casino-resort off Interstate 71 would bring in about 5,000 new jobs, and they've also devised a plan that would help divide Casino revenues among all 88 counties in Ohio."
... To the Old Line State!:
"Once an elite horse racing state that dominated the mid-Atlantic, Maryland has been brought down by a competitive imbalance with tracks in neighboring states that grew powerful after slot machines were legalized and began fueling race purses. The Maryland industry hopes a slots referendum going before voters Nov. 4 will level the playing field, but for now it struggles. Small, however, sees more to it. The MTHA for years has set as its ideal year-round racing in the state, but Small believes there is a glut of racing in the mid-Atlantic and trainers should not expect stall space to be subsidized when the tracks are out of season."
Odds and ends
West Virginia continues to rake in big revenues from newly legalized table games ... The (Jason) Bay state says it could reap $600 million anually for the state's coffers if it legalized casinos ...MTR Gaming may shed some properties to cut debt ... The lastest on the Louis DeNaples case out east ... Harrah's releases its second-quarter results.
Chicago finally gets some shows to go with all of those slots:
"Metropolitan Chicago is the third largest gambling - or, as the casinos prefer to call it, gaming - market in North America. But unlike in Las Vegas, where singularly spectacular shows and concerts have been a desert draw for decades, Chicago-area casinos have never expended much energy on entertainment ... Next weekend, that's all going to change. And it's likely to seriously roil Chicago's hyper-competitive market for live shows. The catalyst is the opening of The Venue at the Horseshoe Casino, a huge, 2,500-seat theater that's a key part of the newly expanded Horseshoe, a Hammond, Ind., entity now owned by the Harrahs Corp., a behemoth of the gaming industry that also owns the Caesar's Palace, Bally's and Flamingo brands, as well as its chain of namesake casinos."
Can't wait for that first Celine Dion concert.

The rooms vary in size some having a a full kitchen and lounge area and others standard size with bar fridge. I have stayed in the both size rooms and both are very comfortable. The rooms are clean, the staff are friendly. There is a great big pool which most of the rooms over look. It looks beautiful at night time. Defiantly recommend staying here. There is a great restaurant down stairs so you don't have to go to far to get a great meal.
Read what past customers have said about Ramada Hervey BayWrite Testimonial
Valentines Day weekend stay commented on 09-Apr-2015
Excellent stay, rooms are modern, clean and very quiet. The building is
only 2 floors so we didn't have much of a view but this didn't bother
us. Room amenities are great, the tv unit Comes with a keyboard which
doubles up for use of the internet which I haven't seen before but it is
a great idea. Wireless internet is free! and is fast and easy to use.
The restaurant on site is great. The food is really good and reasonably
Every staff member I encountered at the Ramada was so helpful and friendly. We had a fantastic weekend in Hervey bay.

Yes please I'll have some more of this!!! commented on 09-Apr-2015
Only got to stay here overnight after having been to Lady Elliot Island
but can only say good things about it. The rooms were large, well
appointed, clean and fresh. We had a lovely view of the pool that
unfortunately we didn't get to sample but it looked very inviting. The
staff were very warm and welcoming and sorted out our little problem
with the air con quick smart. We had breakfast included in our package
and it was delicious with our hot food cooked fresh for us. We didn't
get to spend much time here but we've put it on our list of places to
revisit. We will probably go to Lady Elliot Island again as we want to
dive with the Manta Rays again so we will extend our travel time to
include more time here we enjoyed it that much.

Can't go Wrong commented on 09-Apr-2015
The ramada resort is really nice. Our stay was perfect if you want
somewhere that's peaceful this would be a good option. The hotel was
clean I've read some other reviews about mold in the bathroom this isn't
the case. All your kitchen utensils are provided furniture is good the
ac worked well. We didn't eat dinner at the restaurant but the breakfast
was great. We will come back again.

Need some help please in planning a day sightseeing Gap of Dunloe area. Is it better to take this tour with guide or can it be done independently. I have been to Killarney a few times and am familiar with National Park and have some sightseeing tours.
I read that there is a shuttle bus from tourist office and bus station that drops off tourists who are hiking the trails. I enjoy trails but not sure if I should join a tour or do the hiking and afterwards pick up the shuttle to get back to town or National Park. I will be in Killarney on August 17-18. Thanks for any suggestions.
Is it possible to get great deals on Irish made Crystal? I'm not picky about the brand. if so, in what town/store?
Which hop on hop off bus tour is better green or red bus?

Any recommendations, will be appreciated. Thank you.
My husband and I will be on our 1st trip to Ireland in September and would love to go to the Killalane Road Races, but, we came across an article that they are cancelled.
Can anyone confirm that for me?
Thank you and much appreciated :)

Thanks for your time! :)
Looking for to have a flight around either Dublin area or Galway. an hour or two. Just a nice aerial tour. Any one know any small engine plane operators for hire?
Wife and I are traveling to Dublin this Aug from 9-16 and wondering the best transportation from the Dublin International Airport to The Castel Hotel.
My wife and I are traveling from Newfoundland to Dublin form Aug 8-16 for my wife 50th birthday. We are wonder if we should book defore or when we get to Dublin. There are so many tour company's and all we want is to book with a good company and have fun.
My wife is a big Game of Thornes fan and she like to see Ring of Kerry, Giants Causeway, Cliffs of Moher, Dark Hedges or any other things we can do. Also this is our first time in Ireland.
I'll be flying into and out of Shannon and have 3 full days. I am on foot - no car. Would like to see towns, music and hiking. Is the bus service from Ennis good enough to get to good hiking (Burrens, coasts, etc) that I can use Ennis as my base town? Thank you :)
Arriving into Ireland end of next week August and need advice on best method to purchase foreign currencies for my tour. I contacted Irish Bank today which was a waste of time. They could not place my order which I would pay for with Debit in Euros and pick up on arrival. Said I would need to visit the branch and complete order forms. Then advised the bank only handles money to use in Sweden. This did not help either as Stockholm will be the last stopover before leaving on return flight to Dublin and on to JFK.
Will travel on A/F flight to Copenhagen to join tour. I need to have some money to use in Denmark on arrival in case I take a taxi or train getting to hotel. I am arriving on a Saturday and need advice please on best way to get the currencies.

We are thinking to go next year to Ireland.
Do you think 14 days are enought for doing the tour by car of the island ?
What are the place we we can not miss, that we must see for sure ? (city, building, nature, landscape, ... )
Thanks !
I'm trying to buy a one way ticket on Iarnrod Eireann official site without success. Want travel on early train Killarney to Dublin Connolly station where I can connect with express bus service to Donegal. on August 19. I only need a one way ticket so I want to check the fare, standard class and first class since its early morning.
I have received my Open Roads bus pass already which will cover second leg of journey. If I can order it online I feel I might get a better price. Also the ticket office in Killarney might not be open when I arrive after 7am.
Had this experience before. Walked to the Killarney station one Saturday morning to buy a ticket to travel next day to Dublin and was told by a conductor that the ticket office is closed all weekend. Did not expect to hear this in summer peak season in a big tourist hub like Killarney.
Any help please getting my ticket in advance. Thank you. Kate

Wait A Minute...Robin Thicke Was In A Movie?!
Posted July 24th, 2014 @ 10:13am
It was called Making The Rules, and it came out in May....on DVD.
You tell me...is he a good actor? Be careful, he curses a couple times in the "best-of" clips below.
I wonder which sold more...DVD's of this movie or his new CD, "Paula".
It's currently at 0% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Here's the trailer for the movie. He's much better in this.

Finish this sentence: To me, creativity means….
taking chances, trying new things, making inspiration and ideas into visual realities.
What type of projects do you do best?
I really enjoy painting. I'm most comfortable using markers and colored pencils. I'd define myself as an illustrator/ crafter.
What would you consider to be your signature technique or tip?
People always say I have a whimsical style. I like the things that I make to have a sense of humor to them. I'm not one of those deep thinking gallery artists. I like color and silly characters with personality.
When did you first realize you were creative?
I don't feel like I'm naturally any more creative than anyone else. My 3rd grade pictures of horses and trees were nothing out of the ordinary- truth be told they were probably worse than those of my peers- but I felt good when I was drawing- so I kept at it.
What inspires you to create?
I'm inspired by anything and everything- you never know what's going to trip your creative trigger.
What was your biggest creative goof? How did you fix it?
There's no such thing as a creative goof. Messes, yes, but goofs- no. Everything can be salvaged, altered and possibly made into something extraordinary you keep at it. I don't like erasers or crumpling up paper.
When and where do you feel the most creative?
I feel inspired to be creative when I'm around other people that are creative. Nobody can be creative or artistic in a vacuum. It takes ideas, images and surrounding yourself with inspiration.
How do you find the time to let your creativity loose?
Thank goodness I have a job where part of the job description requires being creative and thinking outside of the box everyday. Being artistic feels natural to me- it's not something I wanted to do- it's something I've always felt the need to do.
What would be in your dream craft room/work space?
I work in a dream space right now- lime green walls, a huge window with lots of natural light, my Cintiq, tons of storage space, an adjoining room with all of the glue, paper, glitter and embellishments I could ask for and surrounded the most talented people I know.
What tools and supplies do you always have on hand?
A sketchbook, marker paper, Prismacolor markers, soft drawing pencils and glitter just because I like it.
What's your favorite color?
It's always changing, currently I love lime green.
What projects are you working on now?
I just moved so I'm decorating my new apartment. I love moving and finding new spots for old stuff- it makes everything seem new again. I'm working on a gigantic painting for my living room.
If you had a $100 Michaels gift card, what would you buy?
I'd put it towards buying a Yudu. I worked in screen printing right out of college and I love the whole process. Being able to print anything I want at home with next to no mess sounds like a lot of fun and gets my craft show juices flowing.

BASKETBALL BENEFIT..THE WONDERFUL WIZARDS OF AHHH's
These Guys can really play!
At a time when we all take sports so seriously..it's nice to see some athletes lighten up as they light it up. The team is called the Harlem Wizards.."trick hoopz and alley oops" and that's just what they gave us tonight at the Olympic Training Center. The show was a benefit for an organization called "Let The Kids Play"...their mission is to provide sports equipment to kids in need. (great cause) KKTV 11 News was proud to sponsor the game and I was pleased to be there as the emcee.
Let me tell you what I really liked about the game/show. These are gifted athletes...and they're also talented entertainers. Swoop and King Arthur and Sky Cam and the others can dribble, pass and shoot their way around any of the all-star teams assembled to serve as the night's opponent/victim. There's also amazing trick work, and hilarious crowd interaction between the slam dunks and long shots. Tonight's all-star opponents included Chief Meteorologist Brian Bledsoe ( who did sink a 3) and his young son Kendrick, who must have scored 8 or 10! Betty Sexton's son Taylor played too, so did her nephew Bailey. No opponent stands much of a chance against the mighty Wizards.
What's great is that from my position courtside, I could watch the Wizards interact with one another..and they were having a wonderful time! They told me they spend the whole school year traveling and playing/performing together, usually at schools, from coast to coast. They told me they're like a big family, and it shows!
These are all strong, tough, talented ball players.......but with an evident soft-spot for kids, and a gift for making fans of all ages smile the whole time. The crowd and kid interaction is just right. It's never too much, it's never uncomfortable and it's always executed with genuine affection for the little fans. As smooth as one of these guys is, driving the lane and slamming it home..they are all just as smooth taking a child by the hand, leading him to center court and and making him part of the show.
This is first-rate family entertainment..it never crosses a line into anything remotely inappropriate. So take the family, tomorrow (Tuesday) night. You can get tickets at the door at the Olympic Training Center.
You'll have lot of fun watching the Wizards...and they'll probably have just as much fun playing basketball, and playing to the crowd.
We'll talk again soon

Hi. I keep seeing guides and screenshots referring to accessing "Startup Applications" in 12.04 via the user menu at the end of the top panel. However, like the new "Privacy" app in "System Settings", I never got the updated menu with the upgrade to 12.04, so have to launch it via its command (gnome-session-properties).
How do I rectify this? Is some package missing, or in need of an update? Or is it because I'm using Gnome 3 Classic/Fallback (in 64-bit 12.04), rather than Unity? And if so, how do Classic users rectify this?
Since I can still run it, I suppose it isn't critical, but I'd still like to sort this out if I can.

"Citizen Advantage"
Governments do a good job of measuring internal cost savings from information technology investments, but a poor job of conveying e-government's financial benefits to businesses and citizens, according to a new study by Deloitte Consulting.
"E-government can be a very powerful tool for economic development in terms of creating economic competitiveness by reducing compliance costs on businesses and individuals," said William Eggers, global director for Deloitte Research's public sector group. "People, for the most part, don't know that."
For example, Oregon's one-stop shop for building construction approvals, including online permitting and reporting, saves the industry 10 percent in reduced delays and permit processing costs, or $100 million annually.
On the federal level, the Small Business Administration has created a one-stop business compliance Web site to help businesses find, understand and comply with regulations, find information on legal and regulatory changes, access 20,000 links to state and local government sites and complete online transactions like registering for an Employer Identification Number.
The Deloitte report, written by Eggers and called "Citizen Advantage: Enhancing Economic Competitiveness through E-Government," estimates that the SBA site saves businesses about $526 million annually by reducing their time and expenses.
By streamlining processes and Web-enabling rules, regulations and transactions, governments can provide potential businesses and others the tools for finding, understanding and complying with regulations, Eggers said.
Governments can calculate the benefits to businesses and citizens by using the average direct costs of postage, printing, gas and travel, professional fees and personnel time for businesses, and by determining how many of those are eliminated by using e-government applications. Those expenses that are avoided — not to mention indirect costs, such as time saved in complying and company's time to market — could determine savings for businesses as a whole within a municipality, region and state, he said.
Measuring the benefit isn't difficult or costly to do, and numerous federal and state officials "love the concept," Eggers said. While cost-benefit analysis is understood and applied within the transportation and public works sectors, it's a fairly new idea within information technology. "E-government is the infrastructure of the 21st century, just the same way we calculated return on investment for water systems and bridges," he said.
The eyes of city council members, state legislators or congressional representatives might glaze over regarding internal cost benefits from an IT investment, but if they learn a certain e-government application cut compliance costs by 20 percent for businesses, then it's something they can understand and take to their constituents, Eggers said. It becomes a much more effective argument for future IT investments, he said.
However, the business community has been largely AWOL on this concept as well, Eggers said. Deloitte will talk to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other industry associations about it in the coming months, he said.
Savings could reach into the billions of dollars by enacting more e-government applications, and calculating those benefits for businesses and individuals, he said. "As Benjamin Franklin once said, 'Time is money,' and it's big money for some of these companies," he said.

Dr. Portuese really is an artist, in addition to being one of the best plastic surgeons in the pacific northwest - one of the reasons I chose him to perform my rhinoplasty. I couldn't be happier with my new nose! My dorsal hump is removed, and my new nose really does seem to enhance my other facial features. My experience with Dr. P and his staff far exceeded my expectations and I now have the nose I've always wanted!
I recently had a rhinoplasty/Neck lift and I really could not be happier with both the results and the experience! I visited multiple doctors before meeting with Dr. Portuese, and neither compared to him in the slightest. He is very thorough and will expound on anything and everything, whilst also alleviating any concerns I had about the surgery and recovery. He was correct in his predictions about the recovery process. I would also like to mention that he has the greatest staff a patient could ask for! Janet is extremely friendly, helpful, and compassionate and she helped make the process smoother for me:) The nurses and anesthiesiologist were also extremely qualified, proffessional, and friendly. I really could not have asked for a better surgeon and team! My nose looks so natural and lovely that all my friends are now considering having the procedure done with Dr. P:) If anyone is considering this, go for a consultation here and you will see what I am talking about:)
Took my son in for Septoplasty and Dr. Portuese and his staff lived up to excellent reputation he has garnered. The work was amazing and the recovery no problem at all. Would take my son back again for any treatment or procedure. My cousin also took her daughter in for more extensive work, and again the overall experience was world class.
I am absolutely thrilled with the surgical procedure Dr. Portuese performed on my nose. My nose has been broken twice and I have always been self conscious about it. My dermatologist had recommended Dr. Portuese. I found his website very helpful showing before and after pictures of the patients he performed procedures on. I have felt very welcomed by the entire staff. Everyone has been so helpful and kind. Dr. Portuese was very easy to talk to and discuss recommendations. I met with Janet to discuss fees and scheduling. She was a delight to meet with. She answered all my concerns and questions regarding pre/post op instruction, as well as my fears about the healing process. The day of my surgery I was extremely nervous, Janet, the anesthesiologist and the surgical staff put me at ease. The first check after surgery, I saw Dr. Portuese and he was genuinely delighted with my result. I am now about four months post op and I have been very pleased with my new nose. Not only is my nose straight, but I can breathe better too! I would recommend Dr. Portuese to anyone!
I had a revision and I know fixing someone's dirty work could be hard. He insured me that he could after spend 7,000 the out come was horrible. He agreed also so we did another procedure. My nose is still crooked. I went for a follow up but he said it was suppose to look like that as all things are uneven. I just wish I did my research.
I had rhinoplasty done at the clinic 4 years ago. Nose is still over-projected, even though we discussed how much I want to be taken off the tip of the nose right before surgery and he said yes he could do it. The bridge of my nose is too scooped out on one side, with a bump remaining on the other side. The nose wides toward the sip and looks bulbous. I won't come back for revision, esp. after reading reviews here. I am going to look for a better doctor. Dr. Portuese looked full of himself, didn't spend much time with me during consultation, the lady that does computer modeling didn't seem to know what she was doing, and I would prefer to discuss the shape of my future nose with the doctor who is going to perform surgery on me, not the assistant. I read a lot good reviews on them, so I went with it, I wish I did it with a different doctor. The good thing though, my nose functions just as well.
Very professional, great bedside manner he puts function first - I love my nose!
Dr. Portuese is an excellent doctor. I'm a 57 year old white female who has lost over 80 pounds over the last 2 years, therefore I had a lot of loose skin on my face and neck. Nine weeks ago Dr. Portuese performed a lower face/neck life, brow life, chin implant and dermabrasion around my lips. I couldn't be more happier with the results, everyday just keeps getting better. My sister went to Dr. Portuese 6 years ago for a facelift and to this day she still looks beautiful and much younger then her 61 years of age. I highly recommend Dr. Portuese, he truly is an amazing Doctor and his entire staff is first rate and very caring.
I had upper and lower eye lid surgery with Dr.William A.Portuese two months ago and I am happy with the results and I highly recommend him.He is highly knowledgeable in his field of surgery.
My daughter had a rhinoplasty and chin implant done by Dr Portuese last summer. She looks so beautiful! We are so pleased with the results! My daughter's confidence has increased, she is so happy! He refined her nose beautifully! We were going to put her outstanding before and after photo's on his website, but decided to stay more private. He and his staff are wonderful to work with! High regards!
I highly recommend Dr. Portuese for any type of plastic or reconstructive surgery. Both my eye lid and neck lift surgeries very positive experiences. He and his staff are very professional and explain every aspect of the procedure and exactly what the results will look like. I had no surprises and am very pleased with the results.
Dr Portuese is a true artist. My nose was broken in my early 20's and I was left with a somewhat twisted nose. I went to Dr Becker in NJ, who happily took pretty much my lifesavings, I was 23 at the time. Two procedures later by Dr Becker and my nose was pretty much unchanged. I was not happy. Years later, this year, I decided to try again with Dr Portuese to get things back to the way they were. WOW. Should have come to him first. The years I wasted. Please do yourself a favor and GO to Dr Portuese.
Worst experience of my life. I had a rhinoplasty done in 2012 - we both weren't happy with the outcome so he re-did my nose in 2014. Since then, I have lost the ability to breath through my nose. I am a complete mouth breather now. I've lost about 90% of my sense of smell - I'm sure this has to do with the fact that I can not breath. I look like I've had a botched nose job. One nostril is double the size of the other one. My nose is crooked and uneven. I have a massive bump on the side of the bridge and indents on the tip, which is about the size of a marble. I honestly have no idea how a surgeon could do such a horrible job on something they specialize it. Not once, but twice.
Finding a cosmetic surgeon with experience is vital for anyone undergoing a plastic surgery procedure. In my case I learned that the hard way. My particular rhinoplasty was complicated due to undergoing surgery with a previous surgeon with no specialty and that resulted in a very poorly reconstructed nose with extensive scaring. After consulting with other surgeons and finding disappointment, I was thrilled when i found Dr. Portuese. After consulting with him I found him warm, and concerned for my welfare. My initial impression was further enhanced by his extensive experience with revision rhinoplasty. Dr. P was able to fix my original rhinoplasty to a result that was completely beyond my expectations! He will advise you openly about what can be expected in the final results however he is also very open to listening to the patient and trying to meet their expectations. His office is outstanding and the staff was absolutely amazing with the amount of time they spent with me. When you are in his office you feel like the most important patient in the world. Dr. P never acts rushed ( and I talk a lot). He sits and listens to concerns and opinions, and answers all questions without ever making the patent feel like he has someplace else to be. Speaking about aspects of yourself that you might not be happy with can be a very vulnerable and difficult experience but Dr. P and his office make it easy. I have so much more confidence than I had before and that has completely changed my life. I would recommend him without question, and donât regret my decision to go with him. I feel completely confident that if I had chosen another doctor I would not have the results that I do.
I recently underwent a lower face and neck lift. The results are excellent. I told him on the first appointment less is best and he doesn't overdo. Most people don;t know that I've had anything done but just say " gee you look good" or did you lose weight. He is straightforward with his explanation and is not really warm and fuzzy which is fine. He is an excellent surgeon with up-to-date techniques which is exactly what I was looking for.
I am about 6 weeks post nose surgery for a deviated septum and nasal fracture and am so far please with the results. I broke my nose a few years back and it was crooked and stuffed, and even before that I have never breathed very well through it. Always been a mouth breather. I finally decided to see a specialist about it. I was very skeptical of having surgery because its never fun but the staff made me feel confident in that decision and after trying some other things I was sure it was the best option too. Surgery went well, bruising and pressure was intense, and my nose is still a little numb/tingly but I can breath better way better and my nose is straighter. I'm also very pleased with my profile which wasn't even something that really bothered me before my surgery.
When I came to see Dr. Portuese after an unfortunate accident (a collision with my golden retriever), my nose was on the left side of my face. I suffered a nasal fracture and deviated septum. However, even before the accident I disliked my nose and the resulting profile it created. I had (past tense) a large bump on the bridge of my nose that has been a constant source of insecurity for me. Thanks to Dr. Portuese, his staff, and my canine friend, I am in love with my new nose. After the accident, a dear friend of mine told me about the best Facial Plastic Surgeon in Seattle. From the moment I stepped into the office, I felt comfortable and cared for. His staff is accommodating, friendly, and helpful. Some of his staff has worked for him for 20 years and still smiling. (Having a long-term staff and keeping them happy speaks volumes about his character) Dr. Portuese took his time to explain to me what was needed. He is kind, professional, patient, and knowledgeable. He spoke of the procedure with confidence and he assured me that I could do it. He also talked to me about the outcome, risks and benefits. He spoke of a little rhinoplasty. Now this was music to my earsâ¦. Goodbye little bump? During the pre op appointment, the nurse spent nearly an hour with me answering my questions and talking about what to expect before and after as far as anesthesia and pain control. She explained to me that the surgery is done in a surgical center next to the office and attached to the hospital. Both familiar and comforting. On surgery day, everyone was so sweet to me and I am sure could tell how nervous I was. The office manager told me to dream of beaches while I took my little nap. Dr. Portuese came in and spoke with my husband and I. The surgical nurse held my hand while the anesthesiologist talked me to sleep. Believe me when I tell you that the anti-nausea medication worked. I was never sick. The pain medication (I stayed on top of it) worked. I was NEVER in pain. The drippy nose was annoying, but to be expected. Initial bruising coincided with the NFC championship game so I just wore the 12th man stickers proudly over the bruises. I am about 3 weeks post surgery. No bruising left. I feel great! I can breathe better than ever. But most importantlyâ¦... MY NOSE IS BEAUTIFUL! Is that even possible? Never thought I would say that about my nose! Dr. Portuese repaired the fracture and septum. He added cartilage to one side and the bump? GONE. He took that horrible lump off of the bridge of my noseâ¦. I can and do love my profile now. I have never loved my profile. In fact, I have always avoided letting people see me from the side as much as possible. He truly is amazing and my experience was much better than I would have hoped for. I am so thankful for the result, for Dr. Portuese, and his staff. (And of course, I still love my dog. He did me a favor! Thanks Jack!!)
Dr Portuese was very profecional, he took the time to listen and explain to me the process of my rhinoplasty and what he was going to do, I left his ofice confident that he could do a good job. My surgery went well the healing prosses was quick and almost painless and most important I love the outcome! I feel like a new person I'm no longer selfconsious about my nose, i now have a natural and beautiful looking nose I would highly recomend doctor portuise!
I have had two separate procedures done by Dr. Portuese. Both experiences were everything I could ask for. The staff was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Dr. Portuese was honest and very skilled. My neck and lower face lift turned out perfect. The follow up care was attentive and I was always informed. I have recommended Dr. P to other friends who have had the same experiences. It is so important that once be able to trust their physician and their staff. Dr. Portuese and his staff filled that need for me.
I was in the office for two hours for a rhinoplasty consultation. One and half of it was sitting in the waiting area. The office staff had difficulty creating an after picture and admitted it was not a good representation. I was not willing to wait any longer for her to continue trying. The doctor referred to his office staff as 'the girls.' I've decided to go elsewhere.
I have thought about having eyelid surgery since I was a teenager because of my heavy uncomfortable eyelids. Another doctor mentioned he had the same surgery with Dr. Portuese and highly recommended his work. I am thrilled with the results - natural but refreshed. I have been back to his office for Botox and microderm and am always impressed by everyone in the office. Highly recommended - I will be back!
Dr Portuese was recommended to me by another physician for his skill in this area. In our first meeting, he carefully explained what he did and realistically told me what to expect (I would not come out looking like a teenage model). I sincerely appreciated that and indeed, the outcome way surpassed my expectations. I am absolutely overjoyed. I must also add that his staff is very special. It's rare to see a staff appear to be so fond of their doctor as his is. And they are genuinely fond of each other. They all treated me very special on every visit. I never had to wait at all- not even 5 minutes- and they all treated me like an individual and very important case. I highly recommend this doctor and his staff.
A couple of years ago I visited multiple doctors about getting the nose surgery I had be waiting and saving for my whole adult life. I chose Dr. P, I'm still kicking myself for that decision, after meeting with him several times to ensure that he understood my desired look and making sure that it was attainable and I wouldn't be let down or waste the money just to be back at the same spot as when I was 18. He told me that he understood what I wanted, blah blah blah. Morning of the surgery when I saw him I made sure that he had the picture to take in to surgery and he was kind of short with me but of course I was about to have a needle put in my arm and it was the first surgery of the morning and i was tired and scared. Oh, he had said in my office meetings that he would work on my nose until I was happy and that I wouldn't be charged. so fast forward......my nose is healing and it's not looking too different. 6 months still not much difference except for it's now crooked and caved in at the bridge of the nose on one side. also at the bridge of the nose it is really bumpy to the touch and if you look at it. I have thin skin so you can see the unfiled or choppy job he did. he also cut the tendon or whatever that connects the nose to the lip because when i smiled my nose pulled down but we had never discussed that and it seems that after the surgery the nostril area is actual not symmetrical anymore. with cave in at the top and a slight pull to the side and the nostrils are off.......in profile pictures I look like I have two different noses. one isn't so bad but the other looks like i am in need of reconstructive surgery because of the dent. he told me that well, you have to look to see the crookedness so it's not really a major problem. Well, in pictures it is sooo noticeable and of course when i look at myself everyday of course I can see it (and feel it). he went on to tell me that there is only so much that can be done, of course that is why i let him know my expectations and to make sure what I wanted was doable with what I have conservatively speaking. He told me that I would have to pay again for the anesthesia and I said that he told me that I wouldn't have to pay if there were any revisions. wellllll, they didn't agree to do it for free was his response. he said that he could redo it with a local. could you imagine having your nose worked on while you were awake??? ugh. anyway, i had babies and BF which has taken many years so i never went back but still have the crazy thought to go back and ask for my money. When i look at before and after the before was much better. the nose was just a little broader on the sides. now it;s caved, crooked/bumpy and lopsided. just a reminder of 5K flushed down the toilet and another reason to be weary of little men in little white jackets who smile nicely and "look" like they are there to do their job and help you. The doctor seems to make the patient feel like WE are the one's asking for TOO much. if he would have said that my nose could only be a smudge narrower and no length could be taken off, do you think i would have agreed to hand my money over to him? NO WAY. shame on you doctor. not miracles but honesty and commitment to your patient.
Dr. Portuese has two faces.One seemingly caring,attentive and trustworthy in consultations.The other face is the one of reality...disingenuous,and utmost unethical in refusing to admit to error or intentionally not performing surgically all the areas of rhinoplasty discussed(ie not referencing my printed directions of guidance and desired final profile photo agreed upon between us in the preop appointment-to which he insists both accompanied him into surgery).In fact,I had to reiterate twice the correct profile photo for him to reference just moments before walking into surgery,and, apparently from the rhinoplasty outcome,this dr still incorrectly referenced the very first consult photo that merely addressed the top of bridge.I voiced suspicions post-op that he did not perform surgically all of what I paid him to do,but his assurances were that my nose was indeed deprojected per final photo,nosetip elevated,bridge scooped so profile no longer straight-down,bridge bone straightened,cartilage removed from septum to bring symmetry to frontal nasal bumps,and air passage would perform better after what he had done.None of these aforementioned requested and expected desires are visually apparent one year after surgery,my breathing is far worse where I feel stuffy,and his story has changed regarding cartilage removal from septum.The only visual difference in my appearance is a shallow scraping to a small portion of the top of bridge leaving a noticeable and highly undesirable demarcation.This doctor performed the bare minimum in surgery, blaming all of the lack of expected outcomes on this being an unpredictable revision surgery whereas the more likely truthful explanation for not one desire being met is that he mistakenly or intentionally followed the wrong profile photo and dismissed my peronal printed instructions for guidance altogether.Hindsight encourages me to warn others who view this doctor's impressive credentials,read unbelievable positive reviews, and are taken in by doctor and staff at consults to walk away and look for a doctor with ethics and skill so you have no regrets.
I was referred to Dr. Portuese for eyelid surgery. I found the Doctor and his entire staff to be welcoming, friendly, knowlegable and professional. Each person I dealt with made me feel confident that I had chosen the right Doctor and the outcome of my surgery was beyond my expectations. I would recommend Dr. Portuese, and his staff, to anyone.
Dr Portuese did a phenomenal job on my nose. I am so happy with the outcome. He transformed my nose to conform naturally to my face and now its perfectly straight. I cannot express the professionalism, care and respect I was given from him and his staff right from my initial consultation to post-surgery care. I highly recommend Dr Portuese for rhinoplasty surgery!
This man was beyond rude, condescending, and just not helpful in any way, nor did he show a shred of compassion or empathy. I found him rather cruel.

I've installed Podpress and it works great--except on single post views. Instead of the Flash player, I get the [display_podcast] code, not replaced as it should.
Any ideas for how to work around this? Maybe the answer is to auto-insert the Podpress code at the beginning somehow, without having to type [display_podcast]? If so how?
Any help much appreciated.

And then when there is no availability they put all the blame on the moving company and not movinghelp.com for booking these appointments without checking availability first. They then give the customers a code and tell them to present it at the end of their move. In order for the Movers to collect payment they must have the "code" for movinghelp.com to send them a check. We have had 2 instances where the "code" was wrong and we were unable to collect payment. After a few attempts at calling there customer service line nobody was able to help me.
In turn we NEVER received payment for the jobs that were completed even though Movinghelp.com had already received payment. Now we are out $400 and how does movinghelp.com thank us? They send us a letter stating that they are terminating us from movinghelp.com with no explination and tell us not to respond to the letter. This company is a complete RIP-OFF!!! I want to warn any companies that use them beware!!!!! They go through moving companies like water!!! And for the customers they will allow ANYONE to become a moving helper!!!!

Daddis Gyms' staffs gave an impression that I could trust them but it was just misinformation and withholding information.
Staff said, " There will be 60 days free when you sign up but there will be a fee after the trial period is over and if you were to cancel after those 60 days ( termination fee) . But it wasn't, you were to paid the fee within those 60 days as well.
email received .
"I would be more then happy to let you know your cancellation options. First of all, you are always able to place your account on hold for a couple months to sort things out, will this help at all? If not then you can transfer your membership to anyone for no charge, if you do I can give an additional month for free to whoever takes over the membership to sweeten the deal. Otherwise you can terminate your contract early by opting to pay the cancellation fee which is 1/3 of the remaining balance owed on your account. Please let me know how you would like to proceed"
I will follow up if things changed.

I have always been interested in health, especially alternative methods to healing, so EFT fascinated me. The idea of having fast results really intrigued me and I am continually amazed at the power of this simple technique!
My focus and commitment now is to spread the word about EFT and provide support to people on their journey to mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual healing.

8/25/2016 | Ubaldo gives O's chance when put on spot
Ubaldo Jimenez entered Thursday with a 6.94 ERA, worst among starters with at least 90 innings pitched. His opponent, the Nationals, entered with the fourth-best OPS in the National League. And yet, despite the apparent mismatch, Jimenez shut down Washington over six innings, allowing one run on five hits and no walks.
8/25/2016 | Dominant Scherzer leads Nats' shutout of O's
Right-hander Max Scherzer was dominant at Nationals Park on Thursday night as the Nationals blanked the Orioles, 4-0, to win the finale of the four-game, home-and-home Battle of the Beltways clash. The Nats put the brakes on a four-game skid, while ending the O's three-game winning streak.
8/25/2016 | O's recall Ondrusek, option Bridwell to Triple-A
The Orioles' reliever carousel continued Thursday, when Parker Bridwell was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk as the team recalled Logan Ondrusek from Double-A Bowie. Bridwell becomes the third reliever sent down since Friday as the O's try to keep fresh arms in the 'pen.
8/25/2016 | Kopech among top prospect performers Wednesday
Michael Kopech may be the hottest pitcher in all of Minor League Baseball these days as he continues to shut down opposing lineups with a plethora of strikeouts.
8/25/2016 | Rookie relievers rewarding Showalter's faith
Rookie relievers Donnie Hart and Mychal Givens rose to the occasion to help the O's capture their third straight victory over the Nationals, 10-8, on Wednesday.
8/24/2016 | Britton sees record run end but seals victory
Though the Nationals couldn't steal a win from Zach Britton and the Orioles on Wednesday night, they did steal the closer's Major League-record streak of consecutive scoreless appearances, ending the lefty's run at 43.
8/24/2016 | Pipeline preview: Honeywell working on scoreless streak
Here's a look at top prospects to watch Thursday in Minor League action.
8/24/2016 | Machado, Wieters plate 8 as O's deny Nats
Manny Machado lit up the scoreboard all night and Matt Wieters contributed a late three-run homer to help the Orioles slug their way past the Nationals, 10-8, at Nationals Park on Wednesday night. Both Wieters and Machado -- who finished with four hits, including his 29th homer -- drove in four runs in support of left-handed starter Wade Miley, who was acquired by Baltimore last month and earned his first win as an Oriole with five-plus innings of two-run ball.
8/24/2016 | Tillman goes on 15-day DL; Orioles call up Wright
The Orioles placed ace right-hander Chris Tillman on the disabled list with right shoulder bursitis on Wednesday and recalled righty Mike Wright from Triple-A Norfolk.
8/24/2016 | Power meets power as Scherzer faces O's
Facing Ubaldo Jimenez and the Orioles on Thursday at Nationals Park, Nats ace Max Scherzer won't have an easy task, as Baltimore enters the finale of the Battle of the Beltways with a Major League-leading 196 home runs.
8/24/2016 | O's 3-for-3 on challenges, which hurt Nats' chances
The Orioles took advantage of instant replay in an 8-1 victory over the Nationals on Tuesday night at Camden Yards. Baltimore challenged three rulings in the game and won all three challenges, two of which snuffed out Nationals rallies.
8/24/2016 | Charm life: Gausman keeps thriving at home
Whether it's the shadow of the B&O Warehouse or the breeze off the inner harbor, something about pitching at Oriole Park at Camden Yards appeals to Kevin Gausman. After firing six scoreless innings Tuesday in an 8-1 win over the Nationals, the Orioles righty now has a 2.48 home ERA this season, compared to 5.32 on the road.
8/23/2016 | Davis hits 30th, but small ball big in O's rout of Nats
The Orioles have relied on a simple formula for most of the season, trying to outslug their opponents. But they deviated from the norm Tuesday night, tallying their first seven runs without a homer in combination with six shutout innings from starter Kevin Gausman to beat the Nationals, 8-1.
8/23/2016 | Battle of the Beltways shifts to Nationals Park
On Wednesday, the Orioles will travel 38 miles south from Camden Yards to Nationals Park, where they'll take on Washington in the third game of a four-game, home-and-home series. The O's won both games in Baltimore on Monday and Tuesday.
8/23/2016 | Shoulder injury sending Tillman to disabled list
Orioles ace Chris Tillman is headed to the 15-day disabled list with right shoulder inflammation after receiving a cortisone shot Tuesday. Tillman was scheduled to pitch Thursday at Washington, but he felt pain in his shoulder while throwing his bullpen session Tuesday, and he was examined by Dr. Leigh Ann Curl.
8/23/2016 | Orioles on pace for stolen base 'record'
In the first inning of the Orioles' 15-8 loss to the Astros last Friday, No. 2 hitter Hyun Soo Kim stood at first base with no outs following a single. For some teams, the situation might stir thoughts of a stolen base, which would move the runner into scoring position and take away the defense's chance for a double play.
8/22/2016 | Gotta have Hart: Heads-up play by O's lefty
Donnie Hart only recorded one out in Monday's game. But it was a big one. Hart, who took over in the eighth inning of a one-run game, made a heads-up play on Bryce Harper's comebacker to nab Daniel Murphy at second base, erasing a leadoff double in a critical spot in the Orioles' 4-3 victory over the Nationals.
8/22/2016 | Bundy, homering O's right ship with win over Nats
The Orioles entered the series with the Nationals in the midst of a 1-5 homestand that's seen them fall from first place in the American League East to third. In need of a win to stop the slide, rookie Dylan Bundy and Baltimore's power-hitting lineup delivered in a 4-3 win at Camden Yards on Monday night.
8/22/2016 | Wieters back from paternity; O's option Joseph
The Orioles reinstated Matt Wieters from the paternity leave list prior to Monday's game, optioning Caleb Joseph to Triple-A Norfolk to clear a roster spot.
8/22/2016 | Nats rookie Lopez ready for new test against O's
Nationals rookie Reynaldo Lopez will have a new challenge when he faces the Orioles at Camden Yards on Tuesday in an MLB Network Showcase and MLB Plus game. The Orioles will counter in the second game of the four-game set with Kevin Gausman.
8/21/2016 | Miscues loom large as Orioles drop series
Innings like the one the Orioles had in the fifth of Sunday's 5-3 loss happen over the course of a 162-game season, but they seem to sting a little extra in the midst of a 1-5 homestand in mid-August.
8/21/2016 | Power righties Strasburg, Bundy to open Beltway Series
After the Nationals and Orioles missed the playoffs a season ago, the teams that are separated by fewer than 40 miles are back in the postseason hunt. The National League East-leading Nationals will clash with the Orioles, who own an American League Wild Card spot, for four games this week in the home-and-home Beltway Series.
8/21/2016 | Delayed response: Astros take 3 of 4 from O's
The Astros are becoming road warriors when they need it most.
8/21/2016 | O's prospect Bridwell debuts against Astros
The Orioles recalled righty Parker Bridwell from Triple-A Norfolk before Sunday's series finale with Houston. It's the first time he's been in the Majors
8/21/2016 | Ruiz, Fisher among top prospect performers Saturday

The Baggies are assured of a fourth successive season of Barclays Premier League football and have only a remote chance of securing a Europa League spot.
But Clarke is adamant his players will not rest on their laurels ahead of the encounter with West Ham at Upton Park.
Former West Ham number two Clarke said: "We are professional, we want to finish as high as we can with as many points as we can.
"The next target for us is to get more points than we did in the last two seasons which is 47.
"If we win at the weekend we will equal that, and it will give us seven games to better it.
"For anyone to question our commitment or our desire to do well for the last eight games is wrong."

I recently changed the size of the slider and now it appears I need to resize the caption to fit, particularly on smaller screens where the caption actually runs over the bottom of the slider.
The Support Forums will be in read-only mode for a scheduled maintenance window on 01 September 2016 14:00 UTC - 20:00 UTC. More information.
I recently changed the size of the slider and now it appears I need to resize the caption to fit, particularly on smaller screens where the caption actually runs over the bottom of the slider.
Could you link to the site in question?
.carousel-caption {
top: 10px;
Sorry Andrew, That did not work.
Looks like you'll have to do things like resize text or reduce padding.
Are you okay with those changes?
I changed the padding from 5% to 3%, made caption area smaller, but still goes over slider when screen size is reduced. Is there a way to make it fixed, realizing this is liquid layout?
.carousel-image.slider-full img {
max-width: initial;
You may want to do that within a media query for just mobile
I don't think that did anything, let me show you what I have so far;
/* Adjust the Slider Height */
#customizr-slider.carousel .item {
height: 224px;
min-height: 224px;
line-height: 224px;
.carousel-image.slider-full img {
max-width: initial;
/* Adjust the caption background color */
.carousel-caption {
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
padding: 2%;
top: 10px;
I forget that initial only works on chrome, but you get the idea right? You need to override the 100% max-width style that's applying to the slider image, otherwise it will resize on mobile and that's not what you want(?).
That is correct, I want it to fit within the slider image. Is there anyway to set the exact height of the caption to match that of the slider?
Not unless you want to compromise the content within it.
The caption will be at different heights depending on people's font style settings in their browsers, therefore you can't rely on reducing styles like padding. If you set a fixed height the caption area will not resize when text increases, meaning text will be cut off.
As the slider is fluid it never has an absolute height, so you'd never know what height to set the caption in CSS.
It's a fickle world, the internet. I suppose I can live with it for now, at least it seems to be improved on the ipad at least horizontally. I appreciate your time on this Andrew.
That's okay, I took the time to write some explanation as to why.
Dear Friend? I want exactly that size of Slider from your website, because Customizr original Slider is too big. Question is Can you tell me please how to do it? which file do I have to edit? And what code Do I need? Thank you very much.
@mdlvx, Please start a new Post next time.
Go to Customiz'it!>Front Page>Slider Options and uncheck the Full width slider checkbox.
Yes, thank you very much and I'm sorry. I will. Regards.

I'd like to set up an "advanced search" page that would allow users to choose to filter posts displayed by categories. So, let's say I want to see all posts in "category1" and "category7" ... I'd check 1 and 7, hit submit and it'd display them.
Sounds easy. Is there a plugin for this? I thought an advanced-search plugin would work, but it seems it needs a search term to work--it doesn't want to "filter" categories without it.
