If you're looking for a beautifully equipped recently remodeled place in the mountains, yet minutes from all sorts of restaurants, shops, beaches, recreation facilities and casinos, you've found it!
Our recently remodeled chalet styled home in Tyrollian Village could be just what you had in mind. It's a two bedroom and loft that can comfortably accommodate up to eight people. One bedroom has a queen sized bedroom set, the other a king. On the loft the you'll find both bunk bed and sofa bed. If you enjoy a great shower or bath you'll love the bathrooms, in one we have an eight head shower wall with seating for two, in the other we have a true double tub with air massage and chromatherapy. The kitchen features beautiful granite countertops and is truly equipped to prepare all food and drink, and you'll find a wide range of spices, etc. On the wrap-around deck, you'll find a large barbecue with side burner and an umbrella table for eating outdoors.
The location is ideal and highly sought-after, located just minutes from both beaches and skiing in the lovely town of Incline Village. Nestled in the Swiss chalet-style community of Tyrolian Village, the home is within steps of hiking trails and tennis courts, and less than a half-mile from Diamond Peak Ski Resort. In Incline Village, you'll find two private beaches, golf courses, a fabulous recreation center, charming restaurants and shops, and the Regency Hyatt Hotel Casino. Incline is also where the Mt. Rose Highway from Reno reaches Lake Tahoe so it's very convenient to Reno, Carson City, Virginia City, and Truckee, as well as being only about a half hour to the South Shore should you wish to explore that side of the lake.

Hi, we're Gary and Arlene Mohilner, a retired engineer and teacher, respectively. We love this home and have paid attention to every detail to ensure that you have a wonderful stay. If you have any questions or needs, whether before, during, or after your stay, we are personally available for you.
Gary Mohilner purchased this chalet in 1992
We fell in love with the charm, location and beautiful surroundings of Incline Village, and only fell deeper when we discovered this Swiss-style mountain community (still within minutes of the lake).
Where to begin... We can pop over to Diamond Peak and ski whenever we like. We can run down to the Hyatt for dinner, shows and gambling. We have access to a large, fairly new private Recreation Center, where we use the frequent the gym and pool. We also have access to a lakeside pool and two beaches that are only accessible to Incline residents (and renters). We have easy access to some of the most beautiful locations around the lake, and getting to Truckee, Reno and Carson City is easy when we need to. There are many other benefits, depending on your interests and preferences. Just ask us and I'm sure we can help point the way.
The house is cute and clean. With just two the space was more than we needed. Two couples would be comfortable. More than that would be a bit crowded unless you are very good friends as the two bunk beds are kind of out in the open on the loft. Kids in the bunk beds would be exposed to noise from the living area below. The kitchen is nice quality and pots and pans were all in good shape which is important as we like to stay in and cook after skiing. The bathrooms are modern and clean and spa like. The location is very convenient to Diamond which is just down the hill. Also within an easy drive to Northstar. The incredible and unusual amount of snow made for a difficult parking experience and getting into and out of the house. The roads were not plowed well but, that seemed to be a problem throughout Tahoe due to recent dump of 6-7 feet of snow. The house has some pretty steep stairs leading up to the front door from the street and these were coated in drifted snow when we arrived at night making it very difficult to get up to the house without slipping and falling. Our senior dog who has hip problems had to be assisted up the stairs. Once we called and had someone come out and shovel the stairs it was much easier but I think the stairs would still be difficult for the elderly or going up and down with really small children. We also had parking problems due to the snow. There was no cut-out plowed at the house and we had to park two houses down causing some friction with some local neighbors. We also could not get the jacuzzi bath tub to work as it kept giving an error message when we tried to turn it on despite filling the water up (per instructions) as far as we could without it sloshing over.
Really could not assess the decks or the view as the snow was piled up on the decks and in some spots blocking the windows. Made for great ski conditions though!!
We truly enjoyed staying at this wonderful & cozy Lake Tahoe cabin located in the hills of Tyrolean Village. It is only about a 1/2 a mile or so from Diamond Peak and close to town. The home is very well maintained and quite comfortable for 2 families. It has a fully equipped kitchen, a large fireplace & TVs in each of the bedrooms - a large one down in the family room. We loved the 2-person jacuzzi tub in the upstairs bathroom, what a treat! Great shower downstairs too!. Be careful & use the railing as the staircase up to the entrance is pretty long. Easy parking & the roads are well-plowed. The owners were very kind, responsive & provided great customer service. It was a busy time for their local care takers which caused some delays in receiving some cabin essentials (towels) but in the end everything was sorted out. We would love to stay again & will definitely recommend this cabin to our friends &/or family interested in staying in the area.
Overall the place is very friendly and convenient to ski, food, and shopping. The house is very clean however I wish the house is a little better equipped for cooking. Other than that, I will say this is a very good choice if you are skiing near Diamond Peak.
We stayed here, two couples for a 3 day weekend getaway and this spot was amazing! The house was hillside and had great view to the mountains. It was very clean and well equipped with all you could want and more including espresso machine, waffle maker, and full kitchen cookware. We loved the spacious living room and fireplace to cozy up to late night. And we loved that there were two separate bedroom areas, one upstairs and one downstairs with their own individual bathrooms. In addition this place is a few minute drive to Diamond Peak so easy access to slopes, as well as being close to the quaint town of incline village. We certainly would stay here again and recommend it to others!
We stayed for a 3 day weekend with my wife, child and my in-laws. The place looked better in person than in the pics. It's in a great location close to skiing, snow parks, grocery stores and the lake. All of the rooms and bathrooms were very nice. The whirlpool bath was fantastic and comfortably fits two people. Lots of great views from the living room and very quiet. We would rent again in a heart beat.
Perfect for a family ski weekend.
Close to casinos (Regency Hyatt Hotel & Casino nearby), access to 2 private beaches, lakeside swimming pool

... and heard of this and always thought that it would be an interesting thing to see, but actually seeing a small glimpse from the road, it does not take long to realize the magnitude of the problem and it must be so hard for people who are from Detroit to see their city like this.

Despite what fan adulation and ceaseless television chatter indicated, the 52-year-old NFL team at the eastern base of the Rockies did not change its name to "Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos" this season.
As the hysteria over the second-year NFL quarterback spiked in November and December, even Tebow knew that the team's success rested at least as much on the shoulders of its defence. That unit held opponents to 15 or fewer points five times during a 7-1 run from Oct. 23 to Dec. 11, and supplied all three Broncos players on the AFC's Pro Bowl roster.
Tebow led the publicized comebacks, but when he was asked whether he felt the Broncos were his team, he rattled off the names of teammates – and the first ones he named were on defence.
"I feel like this is Champ Bailey's team, this is Brian Dawkins's team," he said, adding the name of offensive guard Chris Kuper to the list seconds later. "These are guys that have been here for a while and led us on this run. I think they're the big reason that we're here and playing in the playoffs."
The Broncos improved from worst to first in the AFC West, despite scoring more than 20 points only three times in the 11 weeks since Tebow supplanted Kyle Orton as the starting quarterback. Defence was the primary reason the Broncos soared, but when they struggled, the defence was also a root cause of the team's problems, particularly in the first five weeks of the season and in a 41-23 loss to the New England Patriots on Dec. 18.
The defence is also likely to determine if the Broncos have a chance of upsetting the Pittsburgh Steelers in Sunday's AFC wild-card playoff game in Denver.
Denver's 1-4 start to the regular season and 0-3 finish are linked by defensive injuries. During those weeks, five starters missed two or more games. In the 7-1 stretch, the starting defensive lineup missed only one game – when the rookie linebacker Von Miller sat out a 35-32 win over the Minnesota Vikings on Dec. 4, after undergoing surgery to repair torn ligaments in his right thumb.
Miller returned the next week wearing a club cast on his right hand and forearm; a week later, he changed to one that left his fingers free to move. His production has suffered; after recording 4 1/2 sacks and 31 tackles during four games in November – when he was the AFC's defensive rookie of the month – he mustered only one sack and seven tackles in four games after returning.
After spending the previous two weeks refusing to use the injury as an excuse, Miller on Wednesday acknowledged the problems it has caused.
"I'm coming off the ball playing on the defensive line," he said. "The first thing you strike is your hand. I still feel like I can get it done; it's just that there's a lot more thinking involved in how I place it."
Miller has pins in his thumb that will not be removed until after the playoffs, and will not be able to lift weights until after that procedure takes place. His struggles crested in last Sunday's 7-3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, when Broncos coaches pulled him from every-down work.
"Like other young players, he makes mistakes," head coach John Fox said. "Von played two-thirds of the game. He's doing fine; we have others who can play, too."
Miller handled the de-emphasis without complaint.
"I don't think it's a re-proving or anything like that," he said. "They know what type of player I am and know what type of player I can be. Unfortunately, I haven't been the same-type player. I don't like to make excuses; I still feel like I can go out there and make those plays, but we've got to do what's best for the team."

Floods and landslides have claimed 25 lives in Sri Lanka.
Storms moving in from the Gulf of Mexico threatened to worsen flooding in places like Brazoria and Fort Bend counties, southwest of Houston, where residents near the Brazos River were forced from their homes.
The Louvre and Orsay museums were closed Friday as staff work to remove artworks from rooms threatened by the rising waters.
Some towns in central France have been hit by their worst floods in over a century, with more than 5,000 people evacuated since the weekend and around 19,000 homes without power.
Sri Lankan villagers said torrents of muddy water, tree branches and debris came crashing down Tuesday around their homes in the three villages in Kegalle district, about 72 kilometers (45 miles) north of Colombo.
The flood water inundated Mahadevpur-I, Mahadevpur-IV and Kakoni villages besides submerging paddy fields in Namsai district, an official report said today.
Emergency workers on Tuesday found the bodies of a woman and two children killed in a landslide, taking the death toll from two days of heavy rain to 11. Six more were still missing.
In the new chapters of the draft Development Control Regulations released on Sunday, the civic body has made this mandatory provision for all new buildings to come up in the city henceforth.
While Puducherry was hit by floods due to heavy rains in December 2015, Arunachal Pradesh too was affected by floods last year.
Police have advised up to 400 people to evacuate their homes and move possessions to the upper floors of their homes near rivers in York.
With Chennai seeing its worst rainfall in 100 years, we take a look at what caused it, what the impact is, what's being done and what Chief Minister Jayalalithaa has to do.
After a visit to the worst flood-hit areas, National Security Secretary Sergio Berni told reporters late Tuesday that the 11,000 evacuees hail from 39 municipalities in Buenos Aires province.
State media reports say the flood struck Xiaoyuhecun Valley on Monday afternoon amid the heaviest rains recorded in the area in 30 years.
The chief minister earlier held a meeting with Chief Secretary, DGP, IG Law and Order, IG Police and Disaster Management Secretary.
Incessant rains have left thousands of people homeless in Manipur amd Mizoram.

Rajasekhar was also the Kurnool district unit president of YSRC. He is the fourth MLA of YSRC from Kurnool district to defect to the TDP.
Jagan's emissaries met him in his hometown this afternoon and reportedly asked him not to "fall prey to the TDP's inducements".
YSRCP leader G Srikanth Reddy says the TDP coterie misused their prior information and had purchased land at throwaway prices.
A criminal case was registered against YSR Congress MP Mithun Reddy in November last year after he allegedly had an altercation with an Air India official.
Jagan, as he is popularly known as, had started an indefinite fast last week seeking Special Catergory Status for Andhra Pradesh after its bifurcation.
DD programme Janne ka Haq was the only TV show in India which for over nine years was based solely on RTI and transparency-related issues.
The YSCRP leader said the dharna is part of the party's action plan to "highlight the double standards of TDP and the delay by the Centre in according special status to the state."
The party will also highlight the fact that Naidu and his publicity mongering was responsible for the tragedy at Pushkar ghat in Rajahmundry in which nearly 30 persons died.
He reiterated his appeal to telecast at least the last five minutes of his speech on the budget in the legislative assembly, so that people can judge for themselves that what he spoke was right or wrong.
The ED attached the properties pertaining to Jagati Publications, Indira Television and Janani Infrastructure Pvt Ltd.
Officials informed that he posted 'irresponsible', 'anti-people' comments on Facebook after the natural disaster hit the region.
She lodged a police complaint Friday seeking action against certain websites for allegedly spreading stories linking her with a popular cine actor.
Reduced to 7 MPs, Jagan may press for disqualification of both.
While three-time Nandyal MP S P Y Reddy joined TDP, his colleague Butta Renuka claimed that she has not joined TDP.
The (TDP) termed as a "joke of the millennium" the offer of "issue-based support" by YSR Congress to the BJP-led NDA government.

We are always looking for ways our clients can do much of their own marketing and content, and last week I urged you to set up a dedicated Instagram account to promote your business by sharing photos. It's easy to take a pic with the Instagram camera, add a description and a couple of hashtags, then share it. But Instagram also lets you upload interesting brand graphics to any social media app, and I want to share an easy and free way to do that—especially if your eye for design gets ahead of your design abilities.
By brand graphics, I mean several things. Perhaps you could post the images from your blog posts with the title of the post on the image. If you have an online store you can create collages of your products or product images with text over them. Or you might want to create a template, using your brand colors, to use when you want to post tips or pithy words to live by like these by Nathalie Lussier.
Those of you proficient with Photoshop can easily create your graphic images; share them to your phone's media library, bring up Instagram, upload and post them.

Malkoff cursed and pulled the swordbreaker from behind his belt. The town usually allowed travelers to carry weapons, but Malkoff had hid the blade under his cloak just in case. He could never be too careful with the people of Britain. They always had a knack for putting him in the worst situations.
"Hello~ Malkoff," Arkheem hissed from beneath his hooded face. He wore a large rob that was bulky enough to hid his grotesque features. The hood was even draped over enough to hid the creatures face should a lantern come near him. He was growing smarter.
"Arkheem...," Malkoff grumbled, eyeing the British man who lay unconscious on the ground. His chest was still breathing, but with the long black hair the man had covering his face, Malkoff couldn't tell if he was awake still. It was unlikely, with the wound he know wore, but it was a possibility.
"Do not worry, Duel Soul," the creature said, sheathing his blue sword somewhere in his robes, "I have not come for you or your LightWeaver. I came to postpone the DeathGuard's return." A shrill laugh escaped Arkheems hidden and inhuman mouth. It was a dare.
The creature had lowered his defenses to draw Malkoff into combat and let the dark-haired man bleed out. Malkoff was tempted, but he knew Arkheem wanted it. If there was anything that Malkoff could do to hinder the burning creature, then he would do it.
Malkoff rushed Arkheem, causing the creature to let out another shrill laugh and jump back an inhuman distance. Instead of following, though, Malkoff scooped up the fallen man - who, thankfully, still breathed life - and ran to where the healer's house was. Malkoff just hoped it was in the same place. Malkoff nearly tripped on a dead body when he saw a distant sign.
HEALER'S HOUSE, it read.
'Thank the gods!' Malkoff thought, then looked back. Arkheem stood in the distance, observing the bodies of his followers that littered the ground. Was the creature disturbed at the loss of so many of his men? Malkoff could laugh. IF the creature was, then it was a good day and if not... Well, it was still good to kill any who followed that burning creature.
Malkoff ducked into the Healer's House, the dark-haired man still unconscious, coming face to face with a plump bald man. The man took one look at Malkoff, taking in his large size, before moving his gaze to Malkoff's unconscious companion. The blood that soaked Malkoff's shoulder was obvious.
"This way," the man said in a hushed voice.
Malkoff hurried after him. The Healer was short, but that didn't stop him from leaving Malkoff behind. Malkoff followed the man into a room and laid the dark-haired man on the table that was positioned in the middle of the room. He wasn't heavy, really, but something about the man had tired Malkoff out. Was it his innate power? If he was like Malkoff, then he would have one, probably of a different sort than Malkoff's own.
The unconscious man groaned when the plump man lifted up his back and wrapped a thick cloth around his waist. Malkoff studied the unconscious man as the Healer worked. His cloak, now tore and dark in color, was a very fine fabric, probably something only one of the high class or upper middle class could afford. The clothing were made with similar fabric, though, now that Malkoff could examine it, the shirt and breeches had padded leather stitched beneath the surface.
What Malkoff noticed last was the man's sword. It hung at his waist, nothing in it's design was out of the ordinary really. It was just a long sword like one any knight of the Vatican would use. But... It had an odd symbol on the hand guard. Malkoff himself didn't recognize it, but Raphael did.
'So... the creature Arkheem spoke the truth...' the Angel's voice was reverent in Malkoff's head. Why did he have to share his body with Raphael? It was annoying to hear the angel speak from his mind. Malkoff was curious though, so he decided to deal with it.
'What truth?'
'This is one of the Chosen. One of your siblings in this world.'
'I have no siblings,' Malkoff thought, ignoring the cry of pain when the healer pressed on the wound.
'He is a brother in arms,' Raphael said with a laugh, 'Though he has yet to hear Enphearos.'
So, Malkoff had a companion in Immortality?

Really nice hostel. Feels like a hotel. The facilities and location are excellent. The staff were also very nice and helpful. No kitchen but the restaurant isn't too expensive. I stayed in the summer, so I was basically the only person in the hostel. Seems like a great place to stay in the winter though.

Friendly staff in a good location (right next to the train station etc.) with a very agreeable complementary breakfast included for us. My only complaint is that the Wi-Fi network is not fantastic but I have come to expect this with most youth hostels.

Stayed in summer so will differ greatly from winter as it is a ski hostel. The breakfast is amazing and even better because it's free. There is no kitchen but the food in the restaurant is well priced and the portions are large. Definitely more of a hotel than a hostel but if you're looking for a place to stay while you're hiking or mountain biking in the summer then this is a perfect and cheap option. Nice and helpful staff.

The hotel is centrally located, a short walk to the train station, the bus stops, the cable car station to the Stubnerkogel suspension bridge, and the city center. The room is very clean. The staff members are very pleasant. Particularly the ladies at the front desk, they are friendly and willing to help with any questions you had. Thank you very much! I enjoyed my stay here and definitely would stay here again!

At least Andrew Wooten had something small to be happy about.
Wooten opened his account for the second division German club he is on loan with on Friday, netting Sandhausen's lone goal in a 6-1 defeat to Hertha Berlin. The former U.S. Under-23 Men's National Team forward's 75th-minute goal trimmed Hertha Berlin's lead to 3-1 and gave Sandhausen a slight glimmer of hope, but they conceded three more times in the final nine minutes of a match they cannot forget about quick enough.
For Hertha Berlin, U.S. Under-20 Men's National Team defender John Anthony Brooks started and went the distance. Teammate Alfredo Morales did not dress.
Here is Wooten's goal (at the 1:34 mark):
What do you think of Wooten's goal? Surprised that it is his only one for the club so far? See him gaining confidence and scoring more in the coming weeks?
Share your thoughts below.
When is the last time Alfredo Morales actually played? If he doesn't play soon, perhaps a move in January would be in his best interest.
louis z
that goes without saying. he needs a move badly.
There was speculation earlier in the season that Morales was not seeing eye-to-eye with the new coach, Jos Luhukay, who I don't know much about but is apparently a decent guy. But, imo, Hertha Berlin is one of the most unlikable teams in Germany with some players who area real pains in the b*+#. It does appear Morales is in a mess right now that he should try to escape from, although his lack of team time might be related something else and will iron itself out at some point. I will say in retrospect, it does seem that Klinsmann jumped the gun by a wide margin calling up Morales last year to the USMNT.
I think calling up Morales had more to do with letting him know he is seriously on the USMNT's radar since there was interest from Peru.
It's definitely premature to talk about him in terms of the senior team now, but let's not forget that he was a monster against Mexico's U23s back in February. It's a shame he didn't play in Olympic Qualifying as defensive mid was a huge weakness for the US in that tournament.
On a side note, biff, do you have German heritage or do you live in Germany? You always seem very well informed about German teams.

Advantages of flat web design
Here are the perks of adopting a flat design for your website.
Flat is simple but stylish
A flat user interface maybe too simple, But it makes finding all the essential information on a website so much easier. With thousands of new sites entering the internet every day, people have a vast variety of choices now. Complicated and mind blowing graphics are old-school already and people need the real content to be consumed in a simple user-friendly format. Flat designs are the best when it comes to simplicity and it doesn't obstruct the visitors from easily reading the content on your site. While technology has become complicated, the end users are now opting for simplicity. In fact, eye-catching 3D designs aren't cool anymore; flat and simple is the new cool.
Flat designs Load faster
The more complicated a website's design becomes, the more time it takes to load all the code and media behind it. Since the number of mobile internet users is on the rise, you just can't assume that they all have a blazing fast internet on their smartphone to load all the mess you have on your site. What you have to do is adopt a simpler design which is faster on mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. The pricey mobile data charges are also a reason why heavy sites don't go along with mobile devices. Flat designs are usually lighter and loads faster on mobile devices. Search engines love fast loading sites too, so you have all the more good reasons to go for a flat design.
Comparatively easier to build
Flat designs are simpler and it only takes less effort from the side of a web-designer to create them. Graphically rich designs use shadows, gradients, textures and other elements which double the work for a web-designer. Flat designs are attractive and user friendly despite of being easier to create. Having less graphical elements can also make your website flexible to design modifications whenever required.
Although a flat design limits the creative possibilities of a website, the clean and easy navigation it provides cannot be ignored. After all, flat design favors the ever rising mobile internet users who need a clutter free browsing experience. Many high end web designers believe that the flat user interface is here to stay. If you are planning to start a new website or blog, be sure to read the things to keep in mind before buying a domain name. So, are you planning to redesign your site for a clean and clutter-free flat user interface? Feel free to pen down your thoughts below.

Approval Is General Messages offering warm praise and offers of cooperation poured in OIL 9Hsin* Administrator Wilson S. Wyatt, who drew up the plan, and on President Truman, who endorsed and announced it. They came from housing, labor and farm organizations, from mayors, veterans, and individuals. The program calls for building some $16,000,000,000 worth of new homes in the next two w"}?811/ by Private firms. Most of the houses would sell for no more than $6,000 or rent for no more than $50 a month. Subsidies Suggested To accomplish it, Wyatt said there would be needed a tremendous expansion in the output of building materials, three times the labor force now working on home construction, and, in some cases, government subsidies for wages and prices. The banking committee already has approved an emergency housing bill and voted against putting ceilings on old dwellings.

My eyes widen as I hear Mistle screaming at me mentally. Shit! THE GOVERMENT'S HERE! Nadia is going to the door but I hold her arm.
"You're not going out there!They'll kill you. I'll go." She shakes her head and opens her mouth but the vampire guys grab our arms and head towards the door, all of them smiling. "C'mon El, lets see what you can rememeber." I narrow my eyes at Oli. He smiles down, knowing that I can hear his thoughts.
We open the door and I send waves at the men in black. One of them is getting closer to us but I electricute him into ashes. They other guys aim their guns at me. Shit! I scream mentally at them, making them drop their guns. I can hear Oli and the other vampires laugh but when I turn back to see them all of them are gone! Nadia included!
I run to Mistle in dragon form. I can hear Mitchells thoughts but I can't see him anywhere! Stupid fast vampires, I wish Ican see them! Suddenly more people in black come smashing in. Shit! 'Aphrodites boyfriend, get her out of here! she's just dead weight!' I yell into the guys mind. He nods and grabs her, taking her away.
I can feel air brush my neck as I combind my electricity and Mistles fire to get the men in black.Sweat starts to burn my eyes. Ow that stings like hell! Olis arm go over mine, sending his power of pain at them. I scream mentally. Fuck this hurts! We can't do this much longer.
'Guys, if you get the chance, run! Don't come back just go!' I whisper menatally to my friends. I'm becoming weaker. 'You can do it El, you can.' I shake my head at Olivers thoughts. I hope he's right.

Choose a shape and size. A latch hook rug can vary in size, but most are between two feet long and three feet wide, making them an ideal size for placing on the floor or hanging on the wall as a focal point. While most are square, many rugs also come in oval or circular shapes, and crescent shapes are also common. Determine whether you plan to use your latch hook rug on the floor or as a decoration so you know which shape and size will work best for your home.
