This stunning top floor, two bedroom suite is the perfect locale for an escape within Whistler resort. It was recently renovated and a lot of thought has been put into the amenities provided. The overall ambiance is very soothing and peaceful. Take off your ski boots and relax by the fire, or enjoy a glass of wine out on the balcony whilst you admire the views of Blackcomb Mountain and the bustling Village Stroll below.
The suite has a fully equipped kitchen, if you would like to stay in and cook. If you would prefer to eat out, all the superb restaurants that Whistler has to offer are within walking distance.
Free Wi-Fi is available in the suite and complimentary local and 1-800 calls can be made from the suite.
For your convenience, there is an individual, on- site ski locker in the lobby as well as bike storage for the summer months. There is secured parking space available for a small fee.
All reservations include personalized, on site guest services. Our agents are friendly and knowledgeable, and happy to assist you with your Whistler adventure.
Please note this is a dog friendly suite, additional charges apply when your furry family member will be joining you.
- Good sound proofing. Even though the bar across the street still had music past 10PM. I also didn't hear any neighbor.
- Good cheap restaurant downstairs. Everything for $5. Taco Tuesday (if you buy a drink).
- The bed in the pull-out couch was comfy, as good as normal bed.
- The owner uses Deer Lodge to manage the property. You have front desk help. More importantly, since you book with Deer Lodge, you don't pay vbro's new fee (I think that fee is a total scam).
Minor negative:
- A long walk to the ski lift if you're wearing ski boots and hauling skis and poles. There is a shuttle nearby, but it stops running 3/31.
We stayed at the rental for two night and we had 4 adults total. The place was spacious, clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Location was great, just quick walk to the lifts and all the restaurants and bars in the area. I would definitely stay here again.
Stayed in this rental with my husband, baby, in-laws and dog. Wonderful that we could find a well-priced two bedroom suite that was also dog friendly! The bathrooms were great and the kitchen was well-stocked with any thing we may have needed. Very nice to have three TVs, and the air conditioner in the master.
The only things we noticed was that while the bed in the master bedroom was extremely comfortable, the bed in the second bedroom was not. Also, we were told by the front desk that we had to take our garbage with us (we stayed two nights). I have only had to do that in a long-term rental. This needs to be clarified as we had a dog, baby and lots of luggage and it was a bit of a nuisance.
The apartment was just as in the photos. Great location, easy check in, all was great. We did not have soap in both washrooms, but a quick stop at the front desk rectified that immediately. Would definately recommend, and would stay again.
This is a very nice apartment with a high end finish to it. An easy 10 minute walk to the chair lifts is no big deal at all and quite enjoyable. Underground parking costs extra but is well worth the money. Having the washer and dryer is an added bonus when you are biking or skiing all day. Looking forward to coming back next year for either Sun or Snow!
Great stay, room was efficient and right in the heart of the village. Bit of a walk to the lifts but not bad. Have to wait for the Elevator during peak hours. great dog friendly room

Bastos, Robinho & Elano ease Brazil past Zimbabwe; Barrios scores again as Paraguay beat Greece; Ukraine beat Norway; Sweden win in Belarus
Zimbabwe 0 – Brazil 3 (International Friendly, June 2, 2010) (Longer highlights here.) Brazil were lucky not to fall behind in the opening stages in Zimbabwe as the Samba Boys started well off the pace in their first match in Africa this summer, but in the 42nd minutes Dunga watched his team take the lead as Michel Bastos cracked home an unstoppable free-kick. Two minutes later Brazil doubled their advantage when Robinho was freed in the box by a great ball from Maicon and the Santos forward toe-poked home the second. Ten minutes after the break Elano tapped home the third after a fine one-two between Dani Alves and Julio Baptista (great backheel).
Greece 0 – Paraguay 2 (International Friendly, June 2, 2010) Enrique Daniel Vera opened the scoring for the South Americans from close range on nine minutes. The in-form Lucas Barrios doubled the lead 16 minutes later.
Norway 0 – Ukraine 1 (International Friendly, June 2, 2010) Debutant Roman Zazulya scored the winner with 12 minutes remaining after the keeper had spilled a free kick.
Belarus 0 – Sweden 1 (International Friendly, June 2, 2010) Christian Wilhelmsson rode his luck from a tight angle to score the winner for Sweden in the 48th minute.
Azerbaijan 0 – Honduras 0 (International Friendly, June 2, 2010) Honduras look a little light weight going into the World Cup without target striker Carlos Costly. They failed to really test Azerbaijan goalkeeper Salahat Agayev, even after the 73rd-minute red card awarded to Sasa Yunisoglu for a rash tackle.
Romania 0 – Macedonia 1 (International Friendly, June 2, 2010) Tall central defender Vance Sikov scored the only goal of the game after 28 minutes.
Albania 1 – Andorra 0 (International Friendly, June 2, 2010)Â Rapid Vienna striker Hamdi Salihi grabbed the winner at the back post a minute before the break.
Serbia 0 – Poland 0 (International Friendly, June 2, 2010) Both sides struggled in poor conditions.

AN annual sheep fair dating from medieval times will take place on Saturday despite foot and mouth restrictions - using home-made models in place of live animals.
The crisis had threatened the traditional event in Masham, North Yorks, before organisers came up with the novel solution. Pens will be set up as usual in the market square to accommodate an array of cardboard cut-outs, pantomime ewes and dogs dressed as sheep.
The fair, which usually attracts animals, owners and dealers from throughout northern England, will raise funds for farmers suffering from the crisis.
Up to 80 exhibitors are expected at the Masham Sheep Fair dating from 1393, when Richard II granted a market charter. By the 19th century tens of thousands of animals were traded for the West Riding wool towns.
Usually about 500 sheep compete in 80 classes over the weekend. Farmers come from Yorkshire, Cumbria, Durham and Northumberland. This time there will be "human sheepdog" trials in which blindfolded people have to guide one of the flock - a model in a push-chair - into a pen, responding to the shepherd's calls.
"The farmers and their sheep have provided the entertainment for the townsfolk previously, so it seemed right that we did something to help them in their hour of need," said Susan Cunliffe-Lister, the organiser.
"We are still under a restriction order which forbids animal movements. It has been a terrible tragedy and this is some small attempt to help the victims out with a bit of fun and ensure the sheep fair's tradition is continued."

I've been arguing his case for the past 50 years, so I feel vindicated at last
That Bob Dylan has won the Nobel Prize for Literature would once have read like a joke bulletin on Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In.
Dylan, who from the get-go expressed a premature world weariness, has had the last uncharacteristic laugh.
Yet after all, this is the singer who said: "It ain't the melodies that are important, man - it's the words".
And what words! So many of them tumbling and squabbling down a torrent of songs for over a half-century. And not just in songs - Dylan's own early liner notes, his poetry-prose book Tarantula (1966) and his autobiography Chronicles (2004) proved the man didn't need a guitar to get lost, and found, in words.
His cause with the Nobel Committee would have been well served by the fact that literary critics have been stalking him for the past decade. Professor Sir Christopher Ricks' Dylan's Visions of Sin (2003) was reviewed by the Poet Laureate. Neil Corcoran published Do You Mr Jones: Bob Dylan with the Poets and Professors in 2010. There's grist for the critical mill, all right, with Dylan's evolving body of work, like Picasso's, rich enough to have periods - the Woody Guthrie period, the protest period, the rock period, the country and western period, the Christian period and so on.
All in all, I feel a 50-year-old vindication coming on. For as a budding undergraduate literary critic at Queen's University, I stalked Dylan a long time ago.
On the night of January 12, 1963, I watched a live BBC drama called The Madhouse on Castle Street. Set in a bleak English boarding house, it had one character who had no lines, but who crouched on the stairs and sang a mournful song about a dying swan and, as the credits rolled, sang about answers to heavy questions blowing in the wind.
I'd never heard songs like these, and I'd never heard of Dylan, who was the staircase troubadour. Neither had the assistant in the Gramophone Shop, but she procured for me Bob Dylan (1962), the first album and the most important of my life.
Not only did I listen until the tracks disappeared, but I was inspired to get a second-hand guitar and new Echo harmonica from Matchetts, and impersonate the instant youthful Master.
I introduced his songs to the Queen's Folk Society, then in its glory hootenanny days when everything was possible, including a new Ireland. The mouth organ in a metal harness made for me by a garage mechanic for 20 Gallaher's Blues, fitting like a medieval torture instrument, drew a laugh.
I also began to write songs in the Master's style, but though Judy Collins, "imperial jointress" of Folk with Joan Baez, had Elektra Records procure the rights to two, I ignored Yogi Berra's advice: "When you come to a fork in the road, take it." I didn't and settled for literary criticism. Magnificent Dylan took the fork and sang literature into being.
I knew it, and for a new little magazine at Queen's produced in 1965 by the New Ireland Society, I wrote an analysis of Dylan's songs. That issue of Eremon is now in my archive at Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, and is the only copy the library can find anywhere.
Appearing in it is the first published story by Bernard MacLaverty, then a Queen's lab tech. In my essay I spoke of Dylan's artistry, praising him for joining folksong and literature.
I was privileged to know Seamus Heaney, and I once told him that I felt blessed to have travelled through life with three contemporaries - Muhammad Ali, Bob Dylan, and himself. Crinkle-eyed, the Nobel laureate replied, "Have you met Muhammad Ali?" As if! He had, and counted it an honour. What he thought of Dylan and whether he met him, I don't know. But meet on the page, and in the Nobel annals, they do.

[Ed. – Images of canine nose jobs and Botox for kitty? Not hardly. Brazilian lawmakers just want to outlaw the dumb stuff people do to pets throughout the Western world.]
Rio de Janeiro — Lawmakers in Rio de Janeiro, where plastic surgery is all the rage, have approved draft legislation banning cosmetic surgery for dogs and cats, Brazilian media said Wednesday.
Conservative lawmaker Graca Pereira is behind the move to ban procedures such as tail docking — the cutting off of part of an animal's tail — and removal of cat claws, as well as ear cropping for dogs.
Last July, Brazil's national council of veterinary medicine published a resolution in its official journal urging such procedures be made illegal and that vets performing them be struck off the register.
In January, Sao Paulo state banned animal testing for cosmetic products — although not for medicines.
Last October, a group of animal rights protesters stormed a laboratory in Sao Roque, on the outskirts of Sao Paulo, and freed 200 Beagle dogs being used in pharmaceutical tests.

Hello i have a white content background and it makes the checkboxes and fill-ins look invisible.
This happens on my login page, checkout page, shipping calculate, and in the quantity boxes the line in the middle is invisible. Is there any way to color that in with a light gray and maybe a line or border around the content boxes.
Here's some examples,
http://www.portalpetshop.com/Checkout-Page.jpgNovember 8, 2013 at 11:11 am #186073
Hi jwt2030!
You can add a border, use this on your custom.css or Quick CSS:
div form .form-row input.input-text, div #content .form-row input.input-text, div form .form-row textarea, div #content .form-row textarea { border: 1px solid gray; background: red; }
Change the color value. Remove browser cache then reload the page.
IsmaelNovember 10, 2013 at 6:33 am #186561
Hello, thank you greatly for the working code. It works for the background area's, but i am not sure if its working with the borders. I have uploaded an example. (links below)
Is there anyway to make the dropdown boxes the same color also? Not when clicked but before.
If not what i need more is the border thickened, right now they look invisible. The regular text boxes do not look they have a border either? Does this look right or do i need to increase the value?
(here is the code i have)
div form .form-row input.input-text, div #content .form-row input.input-text, div form .form-row textarea, div #content .form-row textarea {
border: 2px #A9A9A9;
background: #f7f7f7;
http://www.portalpetshop.com/Shipping2.jpgNovember 10, 2013 at 6:42 am #186562
Sorry i just noticed you had to add an item to the cart to display the input boxes.
Please try to add an item to the cart to review further or just check out the example image below.November 11, 2013 at 10:39 am #186783
Hello, the comment and search boxes also do not have any border and make it look invisible. Is there anyway to create a border on there also? a border shows up when its clicked.
Ex. http://www.portalpetshop.com/ (Purchase code hidden if logged out) – (Purchase code hidden if logged out) -tale-wags-onNovember 11, 2013 at 10:40 am #186784

|Thursday, a Loudon man jumped off the Hwy. 11 Loudon
Bridge in an apparent suicide attempt. The initial call came in as a
vehicle accident on the bridge but when officers and firemen responded,
they found the man threatening to jump. The new rescue boat was deployed
and was in place under the bridge.
Ultimately, the man did leap from the bridge to the water. The rescue boat quickly retrieved the jumper. He was taken to the hospital where it is reported he suffered no life threatening injuries.
Traffic on the bridge was blocked for some time.

Had mine checked a few months back. They also checked everything else and all was good. Cholesterol was 190, slightly high but nothing to be alarmed about.
Considering my eating habits are not very good, I was happy with those results. I have also quit smoking since then so it should be even better.
If you have a family history of heart disease, it is very important to monitor your cholesterol.

Strange enough just had hers checked today as part of a full check up and found she's at 240 and needs to get rolling and dragging that back down below 200... she weights in at something like a hefty 58 kg... any recommendations on web sites that can advise a good diet, the right foods and so on? Google turned up total junk so far....

Mine's insanely high but I don't take those horrible "statins" to "help." Statin drugs are scary - they cause more problems than high bad cholesterol does. Also important to remember that cholesterol is not bad, it's the "bad" cholesterol that is dangerous.
Things that naturally help lower the big 'bad' C=
1) Omega 3 fish oil (capsules if you're not big on eatign fish or don't want extra mercury in your diet)
2) cinnamon (1 tsp a day can work wonders)
3) Vitimins E & Niacin
4) Stop eating trans fat laden junk foods. Most pre-packaged & fast food food is loaded with it.
5) Eat lots of fresh fruit & veggies (organic if possible)
6) Daily exercise (even walking half an hour a day will help)
November 19th, 2005, 04:36 PM #9
Add to that list:
Tonic made with 2 teaspoons of "raw" apple cider vinegar and two teaspoons of honey in a full glass of water (8 ounces) taken two or three times a day. Distilled and pasturized vinegar is useless for this purpose.
Make that walking, brisk walking for 45 minutes a day at least three times a week. Non-aerobic walking will not do much for you.
Genetics play a major factor in cholesterol levels for any specific individual. Your body manufactures its own cholesterol from the fats you consume.
Fried chicken may affect your tri-glyceride levels more than your cholesterol levels. The actual cholesterol level is not as important as the LDL/HDL ratio.
Tri-glycerides can cause the plaque that builds up in the blood vessels.
Avoid as much transfat as possible.

Apple cider vinegar rocks. It's great for a lot of health issues. Hadn't heard it was good for cholesterol but I believe it.
November 19th, 2005, 06:23 PM #112) cinnamon (1 tsp a day can work wonders)One day parasites and their ilk will be made illegal, I bet a few Lawyers will be pissed off when the day comes.

A good one is to sprinkle cinnamon on oatmeal, which is another good cholesterol lowering food (organic oatmeal if you can).
November 29th, 2008, 10:54 PM #13
I am fairly young. I get mine checked at least once a year with my physical. I don't concern myself with it to much due to my eating regimen.
I don't depend on boxes for nutrition.
I don't depend on bags for nutrition.
I eat plenty of fruits.
I eat plenty of vegetables.
I eat in my kitchen more than franchises.
Oh, I train at least 4 times a week.

In most cases, you will take a lot of pictures when you first get your camera. This may make it hard to keep up with all of them if you do not put safeguards in place. The time and effort you spend getting organized will more than pay off in the end. The last thing you want to do is to not have any rhyme or reason to the way you store your photos due to the negative effects it can have. Taking time to find a great free image converter will help you get all of your files in the same format with ease. The following are a few tips on how to keep your photos organized and readily available when you need them.

Set Your Date and Time
The first thing you need to do when trying to bring order to your pictures is to set the date and time on your camera. By having this set, you will be able to go through your pictures and filter them out by date. This will not take a lot of time to do and will be more than worth it. Usually, you will be able to find the information you need to set your time and date in the user manual for your camera.
Learn to Delete Immediately
One of the biggest enemies of organized pictures is having too many junk photos. When first starting out, you will have a lot of junk pictures that will build up if you are not careful. The best way to keep these off of your camera is by learning to delete them right away. Depending on the camera you have, this will be relatively simple and well worth the time you spend learning to do it. By making a habit of doing this, you will be able to keep only the best pictures on your memory card.
Make Use of Your Computer's Folder System
The next thing you need to think about when trying to get your pictures organized is to make use of your computer's folder system. By putting all of your pictures in one folder, you will find it much easier to organize everything. You can also make use of subfolders in order to narrow the organization down to a few different categories. By having this system in place, you will find it easy to find pictures once you have a need for them. If you are unsure about how your folder system works on the computer you have, then you need to speak with a professional to get some advice.
By taking the time to organize your photos, you will be able to avoid losing important memories.

The Social Security Reform Debate Rages On
Posted on Oct 15, 2013
Entitlement reform has sparked tremendous debate across New England and the United States. One of the most talked about aspects of this reform is Social Security reform and the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program.
In 2012, the SSDI system cost a record-breaking $135 billion. As the amount paid out in SSDI increases, the debates over Social Security reform have become polarized.
Those who defend the program say that the reason the program's necessity is increasing is due to the technical and demographic changes. This includes an aging workforce and the increase in women in the workforce.
On the other side of the debate, critics suggest the program contains inconsistent eligibility requirements. Because of that, the requirements are easily manipulated—making it easier for fraud to occur and draining the system of its budget. Critics also believe that there are few incentives to help disabled people get healthy and return to the workforce.
New data supports Social Security reform. The Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco recently reported that the there was a growth in SSDI cases from 2.3% to 4.7% from 1980 to 2011. This rate of growth is twice that of the working-age population as a whole. In addition, they found that technical and demographic factors only accounted for 56 percent of the program's growth. This means that 44 percent of the growth came from defects in the system.
Recent Congressional Budget Office reports suggest that the future costs of SSDI will be higher than projected. Although some of the growth was inevitable, there is still a need for Social Security reform.
As Massachusetts Social Security disability attorneys, we want to see reform happen in a way that eliminates fraud and puts the SSDI money back in the pockets of the people who need it the most.

Your time is now – 12 Reasons to Take a Sabbatical
Lusting after the gap year that you never took before or after university? Or maybe you did take one and are desperate to take off and do it all again – or do it all differently now you've got the Koh San Road out of your system.
Contrary to what people may tell you, travelling does not end when your student card expires. Oh no. In fact, it's about to get a whole lot more interesting.
Say hello to the sabbatical.
A sabbatical is a specified time away from work, usually unpaid, agreed by your employer. It's safe to say that I'm quite a fan of the ol' sabbatical. In the seven years that I've been working since I left university, I've taken not one but two three-month stints off work. The first saw me taking off on a solo trip through Southeast Asia and China 4.5 years ago, while the second was an extended honeymoon earlier this year with my brand new husband, travelling round Australia, New Zealand, the Cook Islands and Los Angeles (I know. It was as good as it sounds).
Taking time out of your career can seem daunting. But trust me when I say that using a few months off to go travelling will basically be the best thing you've ever done. Here are 12 reasons why.

Hello...it's your emotion calling/
Emotions are our Soul's alarm system. When we ignore them, we ignore our needs. And when we ignore our needs, we practice self-betrayal.
And when we practice betrayal, we're being loyal to whole systems of oppression and abandonment. Modeling abandonment and oppression gives the world around us and those in it permission to do the same. No good!!
Healing starts by respecting emotions and listening to what they have to say! Model love, start with you.

Kolkata, July 31 (IANS) Consumer goods major and cigarette maker ITC Ltd. on Friday questioned the rationale of selling duty-free cigarettes at airports and accused a section of NGOs of acting as agents of companies smuggling cigarettes into India.
"Smuggling has gone up significantly over the last three years and more than 100 percent increase in duties has taken place. So, we are the most expensive cigarettes in the world on the basis of per capita income," Deveshwar told media persons here after the company's annual general meeting (AGM).
He said the smuggled cigarettes come from China, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and other countries and carry no pictorial health warning.
"These NGOs (who are promoting lessening of cigarette consumption) are agents of those people who want to smuggle inside this country because from where the funding comes, in that country there is no pictorial warning," he said.
The industry veteran wondered while other cigarettes produced in the country were subject to heavy taxation, "why should our (Indian) airports sell duty-free cigarettes?"
"Our 100-year-old cigarette business is under severe regulatory pressure," he said.
"A back-up plan had started 10 years ago," Deveshwar said, replying to a shareholder.
The industry veteran said duty-free shops were also providing a cover for smugglers.
Referring to the revenue, the states and the centre earn by taxing cigarettes, he said, "Don't kill the golden goose that lays the egg."
The company had paid Rs.27,000 crore as taxes during 2014-15, he said, informing it has taken up the issue of the taxation structure with the central and state governments.
"Hopefully next year there will be more rationality," he said.
During the first three months of the current fiscal, the ITC's cigarettes business, accounting for the major chunk of its sales, fell nominally by 1.22 percent contributing Rs.4,149.61 crore, as against the Rs.4,201.06 crore it contributed in April-June of the previous fiscal.
"Smuggled cigarettes comprise 20 percent of the market and the Indian exchequer loses Rs.7,000 crore each year on account of this," he said.
"I have been telling policy makers that do not think that by reducing consumption of the legal Indian cigarettes, you have eliminated their consumption. It is all gone to the cigarette that is smuggled," he said.
The official sought the Indian regulatory framework to be aligned for making the country globally competitive.
Addressing the shareholders at the AGM, Deveshwar called for "unambiguous, simple and transparent" policies and procedures which do not curb entrepreneurial initiative.
Deveshwar said while much was being done in terms of ease of doing business, it was equally important to create a "shared vision of responsible competitiveness among the regulators and developers of industry".
He argued the regulatory policies so long have been created in silos and one objective has been sacrificed to promote another to develop the economy and promote entrepreneurship in the country.
"Policies and procedures must be unambiguous, simple and transparent. They should discourage arbitrary regulatory action in the field, thereby not curbing entrepreneurial initiative," the official said.
"Every regulatory framework must answer the primary question — will it help in making India globally competitive?"
Deveshwar said the composition of India's external trade highlights the lack of its competitiveness in the international domain and brands within the country needed to be built first.
"I truly believe that the Make in India vision will be significantly reinforced when national champions (Indian-origin companies which are globally competitive) create winning Indian brands," the industry veteran said.
In India, the company has envisaged an investment outlay of Rs.25,000 crore in 65 projects, of which 20 are underway.
He said the company was on the growth path as far as its top line was concerned, but the bottomline performance was not that impressive.
"This is because we are creating businesses of the future," he said.
It has emerged as one of the fastest growing consumer goods company over the last 10 years and its packaged food portfolio has expanded substantially.
The major business segments for the company are consumer goods, agri-business and services, besides hotels.
Presently, two integrated consumer goods plants in Maharashtra and West Bengal, a food manufacturing and logistics facility in Punjab and a packaged food manufacturing unit in West Bengal are underway.

PHOENIX – After an especially cold and wet winter in Spokane, Washington, members of the Gonzaga University Bulldog Band warmed themselves from head to toe today – poolside in the 87-degree heat, preparing to root on the Zags in their first Final Four appearance on Saturday vs. South Carolina.
David Fague, who has directed Gonzaga's ambassadors of spirit, music and merriment for 13 years, said the Bulldog Band is special. He and the band members won the completely unofficial "battle of the bands" — all in fun — at halftime against West Virginia and Xavier, their counterparts in the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight, respectively.
"The thing that separates us is we're louder, we're always moving, and we have more fun, thanks to the dedicated position of 'fun-gineer,'" Fague said.
Meet "fun-gineer" Paul Bickel, a junior mechanical engineering major and Hogan Entrepreneurial Leadership minor from Houston who plays the alto saxophone.
While it might look like the Bulldog Band is having a lot of fun, it's hard work, says Bickel, the "fun-gineer" with a glimmer in his eyes. The road to the Final Four has been especially taxing, he said, smiling.
"Every game becomes a little more stressful," says Bickel. "It's a lot of responsibility that falls to me and our band to cheer on our team especially when we're away from the Kennel, but we're getting more boosters and alumni involved and it's going very well."
Bickel succeeds senior "fun-ancial advisor" Xavier Collantes, from Auburn, Washington, who plays the tenor sax and is a business major and computer science minor.
"Just being here for the Final Four is amazing," Collantes said. "I couldn't have imagined a better way to end my time at Gonzaga and my experience with the Bulldog Band."
Brooke Cummins, a sophomore business major from Portland, Oregon, plays the sax and serves as the band's "social media butterfly." She expects at least 700 students will be at the game as the full allotment of student tickets sold out.
Joe Panchesson, a junior earning a double major in music and environmental studies, plays trumpet in the band and serves is the student conductor.
Drummer Ian Anders, a sophomore mechanical engineering major from Spokane, says playing for the Bulldog Band in the Final Four is a dream come true.
"I've always watched the NCAA Tournament since I was in first grade, and started playing the drums in fifth grade. I never imagined I would be here playing for the Bulldog Band in the Final Four," he said.
Jack Hurley a junior from the Bay Area who plays the sousaphone and bass trombone, is the band's president. Hurley, who is studying political science and sociology, says he's soaking up the rays and this singular moment in Gonzaga's history.
"It's great to be getting recognition at the national level following such a successful season for the team," he said. "This has been so much fun."

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic condition which benefits greatly from patients who are vigilant about their own self-care. Sufficient rest, especially during flare-ups, good diet, exercise, preventative medicine – such as having annual flu jabs and other precautions that can be taken to lessen the risk of contracting additional health problems, and attending regular reviews with your health team are all extremely important.
♦ Lifestyle Changes
♦ Conventional Medicine
♦ Physical Therapies
♦ Traditional Medicine
♦ Mind Body Therapies
♦ Risk/Aggravating Factors
♦ Food Supplements
♦ Herbal Medicine
♦ Creative Therapies
The general advice is that there is no one miracle diet for RA patients, however, studies have repeatedly shown that those who stick to a Mediterranean Diet – rich in fresh fruit, vegetables, olive oil and fish – have less progression of symptoms than patients who opt for a diet of more processed food with a greater emphasis on meat. A year-long trial published in The Lancet followed the effect of a vegetarian diet on 27 patients. They were initially sent to a health farm for four weeks, put on a subtotal fast for 7-10 days, then a gluten-free vegan diet for 3-5 months and then changed onto a lactovegetarian diet for the remainder of the year. A control group ate an ordinary diet throughout the year but also spent four weeks in a convalescent home. During the first month the health farm group showed much improvement in the pain, swelling and stiffness of their joints. These benefits were still present a year later, the control group showed no improvement.
Regular exercise is extremely important for RA patients in order to improve mobility and flexibility as well as keep heart and lungs healthy. However, if some forms of exercise regularly preclude flare-ups it is best to avoid them in preference for different types of activity. It is important to avoid putting too much strain on the joints, so sports such as swimming, cycling, walking and aqua aerobics are preferable to running or high impact aerobics. It is also important to keep the joints warm. For problems with the hands see the study involving playing musical instruments in the section on creative therapies.
When you begin to exercise, it is important to do something you enjoy as then you are more likely to continue with the activity. Set yourself realistic goals to begin with so that you progress slowly.
There are a range of specific exercises that you can do to manage pain in various areas of the body. See the website for Arthritis Research UK for more information.
This involves a series of gentle exercises that are done in a warm water pool. Warmth is extremely important for patients with RA and during a flare-up hydrotherapy may be one form of exercise that can be continued with and will still give benefits.
Well fitted, warm and comfortable footwear is particularly important for RA sufferers who have problems with their feet, ankles or knees. A full review of what to look for in footwear and insoles is given on the Arthritis Research UK website.

A fast-moving brush fire above Rancho Cucamonga in the San Bernardino National Forest grew rapidly to 200 acres by midmorning, prompting school closures and voluntary evacuation orders for some hillside homes.
Driven by powerful Santa Ana winds, the Etiwanda fire was reported shortly after 8 a.m. in the Day Canyon area not far from Lone Pine Canyon Road north of the 210 Freeway, according to the U.S. Forest Service.
It was first reported at 20 acres, but quickly grew to 100 acres little more than an hour later. As of 10 a.m., the blaze had consumed an estimated 200 acres, fire officials reported.
Due to the steep, remote terrain, firefighters were having difficulty reaching the blaze, officials said. Meanwhile, powerful winds with gusts of up to 80 mph were preventing air crews from making water drops, according to the forest service.
Flames that reached the canyons above Day Creek Intermediate School by 9:30 a.m. prompted evacuation of the Coyote Drive school and nearby Caryn Elementary, the Etiwanda School District said in a statement on its website. Students were being bused to Heritage Intermediate and Perdew Elementary schools, where district officials said parents could pick up their children.
District officials said they were working with local fire agencies to monitor the fire, the statement said.
Los Osos High School, located just blocks north of Caryn Elementary, was also being evacuated, according to the school's website. Fire and sheriff's officials were on campus assisting with the evacuation, the school said, and students without cars on campus were being bused to Rancho Cucamonga High School, where parents and guardians were asked to pick up their children.
"At this time, multiple streets around the campus are very congested or closed," the Los Osos website said.
As of approximately 10 a.m., the evacuation area was north of Wilson Avenue, between Etiwanda Avenue and Day Creek Wash, according to the Forest Service.
Damaging wind gusts of 60 to 75 mph combined with temperatures nearing 100 degrees had prompted red flag warnings across much of the region Wednesday.
"It's going to be a challenge, but we anticipated these fire conditions because of the fire warning," Liz Brown, a spokeswoman for Cal Fire, told KTLA-TV.

World Book Day 2012: Our favourite books
By Emma B | March 1, 2012
I've posted before about how C loves books and has had them from before she was born. She has her own bookshelf in the living room, that is getting rather full, and most days she can be found sat next to it on the floor pulling books out and 'reading' them.
As it's World Book Day, I thought I'd share with you what we're enjoying reading at the moment.
C's not really fussy about books just yet and will quite happily sit and let you read pretty much anything to her at the moment. She does, however, have a few books that she will go for first. These do change; her favourite from about 12-18 months was Dear Zoo, and at the moment her favourites are:
- The Gruffalo– This has been a favourite for a while now and she helps me read it as she knows a lot of the words. She plays games based around the Gruffalo too and tells M she's going to eat Daddy ice cream.
- The Very Hungry Caterpillar – This was one of the books she had before she was born and is one we've been reading to her forever. I do think she's growing out of this one a little as it's chosen a lot less than it used to be.
- My Dad– We both love this book. It's a really nice little story and another that C loves to join in with.
- Funnybones– I can remember reading this one when I was younger and it's nice to see it still being about today. It's fairly long as far as our books go but C happily sits and listens to it all.
Other favourites include The Teeny Weeny Tadpole, Peace At Last and Mister Magnolia.
I do wonder how long it will be before her tastes change again and what she'll enjoy next. What are your children enjoying at the moment?
4 Comments
My toddler loves the Gruffalo too. At the moment Room on the Broom is his favourite. I've tried reading him The Tiger Who Came to Tea but I think I enjoy that one more than he does!
Corinne recently posted..Sickness Bug
Reminds me of my little girl! She has a very similar shelf in the corner of our lounge where she sits. I am going to get Funny Bones now… I had forgotten about that one, she'll love it!! x
Emily McMillan recently posted..The Gallery – Friends
B has suddenly taken a huge interest in all things Gruffalo and Gruffalo's Child!! he loves his books too which I am so happy about and I hope, as with your C, carries on into adulthood. xx

There can be few books for children that work on so many levels, and are so completely satisfying. The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a simple story about a caterpillar that eats his way through a variety of foods, becoming bigger all the time, until he turnes into a butterfly. The artwork is glorious, in Eric Carle's typical tissue-paper collage, with wonderful jewel-like colours. He has made many picture books, but this one is definitely the best. The pages vary in size, getting gradually larger with the caterpillar, and have holes in to show him chomping his way through the leaves, fruit, chocolate cake and ice cream, so it is interesting and tactile for little ones. It introduces counting (because he eats one plum, two oranges, three pieces of melon, etc), days of the week (one foodstuff per day!) and thus the passage of time, growth and change, the biology of caterpillars and butterflies, and, above all, it's great FUN!! My all-time favourite children's book is "Where the wild things are", but this would run it a close second.

I just got back from a super relaxing trip in Miami. It was the best.
I loved swimming in the ocean, meeting up with friends, and having pina coladas and tuna & coconut ceviche by the pool.
While the summer has been great, what you might not know is before I left for my birthday vacation, I had to deal with something quite unpleasant…
I'm sharing it with you today because I think there's a valuable lesson here.
Earlier this month, I discovered that a student who took my INFLUENCE course plagiarized my course content, emails, and sales copy for his own program.
I was shocked to see word-for-word paragraphs directly lifted from my program materials and sales copy. Not only that, but he didn't even finish paying for the course!
I discovered that something was up when I received a mass LinkedIn message from him — using plagiarized copy from my Publicity Mastermind page to invite me to have a 1-on-1 call about his services. (Can you imagine my surprise?!)
I went to his website, where I was shocked to find page upon page of plagiarized content.
The funny thing is — plagiarism happens more than you might think.
In fact, when I told my lawyer what happened, she said: "Congratulations, you've hit the big time when someone is copying your stuff."
Others would say to me, "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." And while I know that to be true, let's just say that I wasn't happy in the least.
Now I know that all of us have experts, authors, and coaches we admire.
Perhaps we took a course of theirs, or maybe they inspired us to start our own business doing something similar.
Sometimes the line can be a bit murky. What's inspiration and what's imitation?
So today I want to talk to you about how to create content that may be inspired by others, but stays uniquely you.
When you discover copy you love, here's how it can serve as inspiration…
1. Dissect why their copy resonates with you.
We're drawn to people when we see a piece of ourselves in them. And we're often drawn to the type of copy we'd like to be able to write ourselves.
Identifying *why* someone else's copy resonates with you provides clues about what elements you should include in your own writing.
For example, maybe you like a certain expert's playfulness and humor. This can be an indication that you should explore humor in your own copy.
Or maybe, you found someone's sales page to be extremely compelling. Try to investigate the psychology behind why their copy resonated with you. This can help you to create that same impact in your copy — but in your own voice, and speaking to your audience.
2. Communicate ideas by sharing your personal story.
Very few ideas are totally unique, but the way you communicate the ideas are.
One of the best ways to convey important ideas are through stories.
Do you have a personal story you can share on the topic you are inspired by?
For example, let's say an expert you admire shares 5 steps to bounce back after a difficult time. You could write a piece about the biggest challenge you faced in your business, and how you personally overcame hard times.
3. Credit the expert.
Maybe they shared a powerful insight that you know that your audience would find super valuable.
If the idea or phrasing is unique, you can always credit the expert. It's always in integrity to give credit where credit is due.
This is also a great way to add value to the expert you admire. Not only are you publicly expressing appreciation for the expert, you're promoting them to more people.
(It's important to note that many experts have reposting guidelines on their website or in their newsletters, which you may want to check out first!)
I hope these tips help as you write your unique content & share your ideas with the world!

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Ireland, they quickly learned that the Irish had a pre-established system of hereditary surnames. The name Uniyke is an occupational surname, which was primarily from the Anglo-Norman culture. There were a few Irish occupational names, however, previous to the arrival of the Strongbownians, so this Anglo-Norman tradition was not too incongruous within the island. Occupational surnames were derived from a word describing the actual job done by the initial name bearer. The Strongbownians frequently prefixed these names with the French word le, meaning the, but this custom quickly died out in Ireland. The surname Uniyke came from a common occupational name for a valued military officer. The surname Uniyke is derived from the expression Unicus Est. According to tradition, during the bitter 13th century feuds between the two powerful Anglo-Norman families of the Fitzgeralds and the Butlers, a Commander who sought help to secure a position pointed to a particularly valued captain and said Unicus Est, which means Hei is the only one to undertake this service. The name Garde was also used as a synonym.
Uniyke Early Origins
County Cork (Irish: Corcaigh) the ancient Kingdom of Deis Muin (Desmond), located on the southwest coast of Ireland in the province of Munster, where they held a family seat from ancient times, soon after the Anglo Norman Conquest of Ireland by Strongbow in 1172 A.D. That this family name were Norman mercenaries seems reasonably clear. In the bitter 13th century feuds between the Fitzgeralds and the Butlers it is said that a commander, seeking help to secure a position, pointed to one of the captains and said, 'Unicus Est', meaning 'He is the only one to undertake this service'. Hence this expression not only became the family motto but it also became the basis and origin of the family name itself, Uniacke. Later some used Gard as a synonym.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Ireland went through one of the most devastating periods in its history with the arrival of the Great Potato Famine of the 1840s. Many also lost their lives from typhus, fever and dysentery. And poverty was the general rule as tenant farmers were often evicted because they could not pay the high rents. Emigration to North America gave hundreds of families a chance at a life where work, freedom, and land ownership were all possible. For those who made the long journey, it meant hope and survival. The Irish emigration to British North America and the United States opened up the gates of industry, commerce, education and the arts. Early immigration and passenger lists have shown many Irish people bearing the name Uniyke: Edward Uniacke arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1852.

About: Newcastle Dental Hospital Newcastle Dental Hospital Newcastle Upon Tyne NE2 4AZ
Posted via NHS Choices
I accompanied my husband to the Newcastle Dental Hospital today. I told the receptionist that my husband's crown came off a week ago but, as his dentist is on holiday, he can not see him for another few days. Initially, my husband was happy to wait. However,
I said I was concerned as my husband was now in a lot of pain and he had not slept for 48 hours.
Also, he is diabetic and was having problems eating because of the pain. The receptionist looked up and responded by saying "Well, all we can do is stick it back on". I repeated what I had already told them and said his face was swollen at which point they decided to hand me a ticket. The receptionist did not make us feel at ease or welcome, but made us feel that they would have been happy if we had left. They did not smile or show any empathy or interest.
My husband needed to have the tooth extracted and his gums were infected. Other members of staff were polite and helpful.
Response from Newcastle Dental Hospital 2 years ago
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback regarding your husband's recent attendance at the Dental Hospital. We are very sorry that the receptionist on duty did not make you feel welcome and did not respond in a professional manner. May we reassure you that this is not the standard of care that we expect from any of our staff.
We have taken your concerns seriously and conveyed your feelings to the staff involved so that they can reflect on the way your husband was managed and try to be more professional and responsive in future.

NEW YORK (BP) -- Capping a three-week media and blogosphere firestorm, Donald Trump let Carrie Prejean maintain her role as Miss California USA, saying Tuesday the 21-year-old has taken "a tremendous amount of abuse" following her publicly stated opposition to "gay marriage."
"You should be ashamed of yourselves," Trump, the owner of the Miss Universe organization, told the news media during a press conference.
Officials with the Miss California USA pageant said Prejean was in danger of losing her title because of what they said were violations of her contract, including her appearing at her church and in a National Organization for Marriage press conference and ad opposing "gay marriage." A racy but non-nude picture of her taken at age 17 also surfaced, which Miss California officials said should have been disclosed before she entered the pageant.
Her supporters, though, said she indeed was being targeted for her views, with some of her backers calling it a "character assassination." What happened to Prejean, they warned, will happen to all opponents of "gay marriage" if it is legalized.
Trump, in fact, used much of Tuesday's press conference defending Prejean. He and Prejean each noted that her position was also the stated position of President Obama. Trump said she "gave a very, very honest answer when asked a very tough question."
"It's the same answer that many people give," Trump said. "… She gave an honorable answer. She gave an answer from her heart, and I think for that she has to be commended."
The co-executive directors of the Miss California pageant had been highly critical of Prejean's partnership with the National Organization for Marriage, saying that in the history of the pageant no title holder had so "readily committed her face and voice to a more divisive or polarizing issue." Ironically, one of those co-executive directors, former Playboy model Shanna Moakler, has since been featured in a pro-"gay marriage" ad calling for the overturning of California Proposition 8.
Prejean, speaking at the press conference, defended her comments by citing her grandfather, who fought in the Battle of the Bulge in World War II but rarely spoke about his war heroics.
"But he did speak about the freedoms he fought for, and [he] taught me to never back down and never let anyone take those freedoms away from you," she said, tears in her eyes. "On April 19, on that stage, I exercised my freedom of speech, and I was punished for doing so. This should not happen in America. It undermines the constitutional rights for which my grandfather fought for."
Moakler and the other co-executive director, Keith Lewis, also appeared at the press conference, and Trump said Prejean and the Miss California officials were getting along fine now and were working together. Prejean said she was looking forward to continuing her responsibilities as Miss California. She hugged Moakler and Lewis after the press conference.
Prejean, who spoke for about 10 minutes, said she wanted to "address the hateful attacks, despicable rumors and false allegations" against her. She also thanked the thousands of people who had contacted her, giving their support.
"Being at the center of a media firestorm is not something I had planned or signed up for," she said. "But the days since have taught me to stand up for what you believe in, regardless of the consequences, personal attacks or disagreements.... I hope I have inspired others to maintain compassion, civility, respect and tolerance while staying true to your convictions, and to never, ever compromise your beliefs."
She thanked God "for giving me the strength to stand by my beliefs" and said her faith "commands us to forgive one another." She said she had forgiven those who had criticized her. She said she was not an activist but instead an advocate "for the importance of not redefining marriage."
"I hope at the end of the day, everyone can respect my rights as I respect theirs, and together we can bring back civility back to our social and cultural discussion," she said.
The controversy began April 19, when Prejean was asked during the Miss USA pageant whether she believed other states should follow Vermont's lead in legalizing "gay marriage." A student at San Diego Christian College in El Cajon who attends The Rock Church in San Diego, Prejean responded by saying "marriage should be between a man and a woman." She finished first runner-up, with some observers saying the answer cost her the crown.
The judge who asked the question, celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, posted a video on his website saying Prejean lost because she was a "dumb [expletive]." A second judge, Las Vegas entertainment reporter Alicia Jacobs, wrote on her blog that Prejean "made the mistake of not knowing when to shut her mouth." MSNBC anchor David Shuster piled on, writing on his Twitter account of Hilton, "I think his assessment of Miss [California] USA's logic was accurate." Giuliana Rancic, a news anchor on E! Television, wrote on her Twitter account regarding Prejean, "she is an ignorant discrace [sic] and she makes me sick to my stomach."
News about a past cosmetic surgery and even Prejean's parents' divorce leaked onto blogs and soon surfaced in mainstream news. Some outlets theorized that her parents' broken relations somehow led to her beliefs.
Conservative leaders, though, came to her defense. She appeared on Focus on the Family's broadcast May 11 and 12, telling the story of why she stood for her beliefs.
"The way she responded [at the pageant] showed she was willing to put her belief in traditional marriage and her moral principles above her longstanding desire to win the Miss USA title," Focus on the Family's James Dobson said. "Carrie is deeply committed to Jesus Christ and is paying a high price for her faith."
Dobson said Focus on the Family's purpose in the broadcast was not "to debate the merits of beauty pageants or the swimsuit competition or the profession of modeling" but instead to know the behind-the-scenes story of Prejean's bold stance.
National Review's Kathryn Jean Lopez and the Claremont Institute's Seth Leibsohn co-wrote a column in which they expressed concern over her "support system" and some of her modeling choices but also over how she has been treated because of her stance.
"Watch carefully," they wrote in an article posted on NationalReview.com. "This is what happens when people take a position against gay marriage -- a view that the majority of the population supports, according to a new CNN poll.... [N]ote what the movement of tolerance does when you simply exercise your rights to free speech, taking a position they disagree with. They go personal. They go for the jugular. They try to embarrass and humiliate you. They will stop at nothing not only to discredit but absolutely destroy you."
The National Organization for Marriage's Maggie Gallagher said, "Of course Carrie is not perfect. On a personal note, as a former unwed mother, I want to say to Americans: you don't have to be a perfect person to have the right to stand up for marriage."
Prejean appeared on NBC's "Today" show two days after the competition and was asked if she would have answered the question differently if given the chance.
"It's not about being politically correct," she said. "For me, it was being biblically correct." She added, regarding her missed opportunity to win the crown, "It wasn't what God wanted for my life that night."
In recent days Prejean has expressed regret over having taken the photo as a 17-year-old. Hours before Trump made his decision, even more racier photos of Prejean surfaced on an Internet blog. Prejean said at the press conference that the pictures were part of a photo shoot and that the photographer did not have authorization to release them. She called the pictures "inappropriate" and said the photographer "had violated" her trust. The pictures, she said, had been taken between poses. One picture from that photo shoot had previously been released and was published in Bliss magazine.

I honestly thought I was done posting In For The Kill remixes forever, but 2009′s track that just won't stop being remixed is back for at least one more showing today. As far as the remix goes, it's one of the best Danger remixes to date in my opinion. If you thought his recent remix of Acid Washed was great, just wait till you hit play on this baby. It makes me feel like I'm a really awesome 80′s movie and I get the hot chick in the end.
