Recent reviews
Good 7.2 From 105 reviews
The service was good. The room had all the basics we needed. It was close to the backpack district. The ac was good and so was the breakfast buffet.
The hotel wasn't bad but I didn't think it was worth the price we paid for it. First and most important, the bath towels smelled bad and the shower curtain was old and gross at the bottom, I could have overlooked the hotel being old but the smelly bath towels were a deal breaker. I also thought the images of the hotel on the website were a bit misleading, in the photos the hotel looks fairly nice and new but in real life it's super old. I didn't mind the hotel being old however I did find the advertising to be faulty. And lastly, the staff was very nice and arranged us a taxi to the airport, however I think they can do better informing their guests of the services they offer, as we were checking out I noticed they do free shuttles to certain tourist areas for free and they didn't mention that upon our checkin. That could have saved us some money and time walking around the crazy Thai heat
It's very bad, not even 1 star everything not comfortable ( bed, room , toilet, cleaning) toilets with no water for clean after finish i don't recommend this hotel to anyone
I saw lots of cockroaches in the cabinets and they did"nt changed the beddings
Loud beside a highway beds old and stiff bathrooms worn out and old.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

The increasingly nasty feud between Gov. Bruce Rauner and majority Democrats is about to spill from the Illinois statehouse to voters' mailboxes and televisions, as the rookie Republican unleashes a multimillion-dollar ad campaign against lawmakers he claims are intransigent over the state budget and his political agenda.
The entrenched, more experienced Democratic leaders — who say they were warned by Rauner of the coming campaign — began pushing back Sunday. Senate President John Cullerton said GOP lawmakers are being "lured away by the siren song of Gov. Rauner's campaign cash," hindering compromise.
"We find ourselves trying to work with a governor who continues to run campaigns rather than the state that elected him," the Chicago Democrat said. "Rather than roll up your sleeves and work on solutions, he's dictating demands and threatening those who defy him."
Majority Democrats in the General Assembly approved a $36.3 billion spending plan they say preserves Rauner-proposed cuts to essential programs. They acknowledge it's $3 billion short on revenue and want Rauner to agree to a tax increase.
A solemn Rauner spoke to reporters Sunday evening as the session officially came to an end, calling that plan "phony" and warning of a "rough summer," but reiterating his pledge to meet anywhere, any day to resolve the differences.
He gave no ground on his insistence that Chicago Democrats Cullerton and House Speaker Michael Madigan take up his proposed changes, including a property tax freeze and less-costly workers' compensation insurance for employers, which he says would produce more state revenue by making Illinois more competitive. He derided the notion that Democrats' spending push reflects a desire to help the middle class.
"They are not about the middle class. They are about the political class in Illinois," Rauner said. "This is a battle for the future of Illinois, and it pits the political class against the people."
With Democrats dismissing Rauner's agenda as favoring CEOs over workers and refusing to link discussion of it to budget negotiations, the standoff amounts to a war of words right now. But with no deal by mid-July, state employee paychecks would be disrupted. If it drags into August, public schools won't have the money they need to open their doors.
Both leaders say they'll bring their members back to Springfield in the next 10 days — and lawmakers won't be reimbursed for mileage or daily expenses. It was unclear what business they'd conduct, but returning to the Capitol allows Democrats to blunt criticism from Rauner that they're not interested negotiating.
Rauner, a multimillionaire who has more than $30 million in campaign bank accounts and easy access to much more, won't describe the planned media barrage but aides have signaled the main target will be Madigan, the longtime speaker and Illinois Democratic Party chairman.
Rauner is relying in part on a statewide poll his political team conducted this spring showing the governor enjoyed a public-approval rating much higher than Madigan's. Steve Brown, Madigan's spokesman, said it's no sure thing the campaign will work.
"As the speaker has said, he's been the target of Republican attacks for years," Brown said. "It's nothing new."
Democratic mailers have arrived in GOP districts, too, though Illinois Republicans have deep pockets to fight back.
Rauner and other Republicans stressed he's backed off key pieces of his contentious business plans, including one allowing local communities to decide to make union membership voluntary. After 12 years with complete Capitol control, Democrats can't compromise, Senate GOP Leader Christine Radogno said.
"Democrats are used to having their way 100 percent," she said. "It's a different dynamic now."
Before adjourning Sunday, the Legislature also approved a measure to lower Chicago's payments to its police and fire pension plans for each of the next five years. Republicans criticized it as irresponsible, but Democrats said it would help stabilize the funds and avoid a huge tax increase for Chicago residents.
Lawmakers also sent a measure to Rauner's desk to allow hunting and trapping of bobcats.

Dear Dharma, I met this other mom at my…
Two Doors Down
- By Dharma
- October 13, 2017
- No Comments
Dear Dharma,
I met my boyfriend online 6 months ago. He meets all the categories of my ideal person. It's only been 6 months but I am completely head over heels for this guy.
Anyways, long story short, I was at the grocery store the other day and I saw him there with what looked like a wife and children. He didn't see me. It felt like something out of a movie.
I confronted him that night and it turns out my suspicions were right. He is living a double life and has a wife and two kids, just down the block from me!
He says he has been trying to leave her and wants to get a divorce. Obviously I can't be with a married man – OMG, I'm the other woman!
I'm devastated. How do I move on? Do I need to tell his wife? What kind of guy does that?! And the fact that me – his mistress! – lives in the same neighbourhood? He's such an idiot, it's like he wanted to get caught or something.
Please help, Dharma!
Dear Broken,
I'm so sorry, what a terrible blow. Getting groceries should never turn into a life altering experience.
I'm relieved that it sounds like you have no intention of staying in this relationship. Broken trust is one of the hardest things to repair, and this guy has smashed all semblance of an honest situation into smithereens.
I guess if he's been trying to leave his wife and wants a divorce, you telling her would certainly hurry that process along. I'm not sure that's the best thing though, as it keeps you embedded in the drama for longer than necessary and doesn't put you on the path of "moving on" anytime soon.
Examine your motivation for wanting to tell her, and if it's simply revenge (which would be completely understandable!) than perhaps wait until you've cooled off a bit to evaluate how you would feel about handling things that way.
If it's because you would want to know if you were in the same situation (also understandable) than perhaps you can entertain that notion once some healing has happened.
And healing, my dear friend, is what you need to work on.
Don't let the awful actions of one man turn you into an untrusting soul. What he did was terrible, but be thankful you only have 6 months invested – and that you don't have a couple of kids with this jerk. Because as bad as you feel right now, understand that his wife is the biggest victim of all here.
Give yourself time, and don't beat yourself up over anything. Nothing that has happened is your fault. You were unknowingly thrust into the middle of this triangle and you are doing the right thing by extracting yourself immediately.
If putting this behind you requires the help of a counsellor, don't even hesitate. Matters of the heart are often complicated, and needing a little guidance is nothing to be ashamed of.
Oh hey – as a side note – this article was actually published for the first time somewhere else!

The world of modern dentistry is embracing exciting advances in technology for increased patient comfort, care, and convenience. Here are some ways dentistry is taking oral care into the new millennium.
With a new hi-tech face on modern dentistry, patients can look forward to a new face in dentistry and greater comfort with more byte!"
By Brian J. Gray, DDS, MAGD, FICO
The most commonly employed technique used in conscious sedation dentistry is inhalation sedation with nitrous oxide and oxygen (N20-02) or "laughing gas". It is estimated that approximately 35% of U.S. dentists use this technique to relieve dental anxiety.
The goal sought when laughing gas is used is to eliminate dental anxiety, making the patient more comfortable while the sedation dentist is able to more effectively complete the planned dental care procedure while the patient is sedated. Consult with your dentist to find out if this procedure right for you.
A small rubber inhaler will be placed over the patient's nose and adjusted so that the patient is comfortable. At this time, the patient will be breathing 100% oxygen.
Some patients at their first laughing gas visit will feel that they are not getting enough "air." The patient should tell the sedation dentist and he or she will provide them with even more oxygen to breathe.
Once the patient is comfortable breathing oxygen, the dentist gradually will introduce nitrous oxide. Over the next three to five minutes, the patient will be asked, "What are you feeling?" as the amount of nitrous oxide is slowly increased.
The signs and symptoms that most patients experience when receiving laughing gas include an initial feeling of lightheadedness, which gradually leads to an all-over feeling of warmth. Many persons mention a comfortable "vibrating" or "humming" sensation. It is common to feel one's fingertips and hands become "numb."
This same sensation may develop in the mouth - a benefit to the sedation dentist (and patient) during the dental care treatment. Some patients will mention that their arms and legs feel "very light." Interestingly, other patients will say that their arms and legs feel "so heavy I can't even move them."
If either of these occurs to the patient, it is perfectly normal. The individual might notice that they are perspiring a little, too. This is a normal effect of nitrous oxide and oxygen dentistry.
The sedation dentist will talk with the patient throughout the dental care procedure and the individual will be able to respond without any problem. This is a major advantage, and a safety feature, of conscious sedation using laughing gas.
If, at any time during the procedure, the patient feels that they are getting too much nitrous oxide or if they begin to feel uncomfortable, they should tell the dentist immediately and within seconds the dentist can adjust the flow of gases, and the patient will feel more comfortable again.
At the conclusion of the sedation dentistry treatment, the patient will once again receive 100% oxygen (for a minimum of three to five minutes). At the end of this time, the person should feel absolutely back to normal. If they still feel even a little bit sedated, the dentist should give the patient oxygen for a few more minutes.
Most dentists permit the fully-recovered laughing gas patient to leave the dental office unescorted and to resume their normal activities. In some situations where a patient recovers more slowly, they might be required to have an escort (friend or relative) drive them home.
Laughing gas inhalation sedation is highly effective in the management of mild to moderate levels of dental anxiety. It also is an excellent technique in persons who are extreme gaggers; laughing gas usually eliminates or minimizes gagging in most patients.
Finally, laughing gas is highly recommended for apprehensive patients who have medical problems such as angina pectoris, persons who have had a heart attack, or persons with high blood pressure, asthma or epilepsy.
Inhalation sedation dentistry should not be used with persons who are claustrophobic or with persons who are unable to breathe through their nose. Please discuss these with your dentist before treatment using laughing gas begins.

Why a Customized Iron Door?
If your eyes are considered the windows to your soul than the front door of your house is considered the entrance to the soul of your home. A stylish and customized iron door, besides adding valuable curb appeal, is the first impression of who lives inside.

A wrought iron door is not only durable and corrosion resistant, but it can be distinctly designed to create an architectural accent. Remember, nothing beats grandma's special cookies. Over the years, she's tailored to gastronomical perfection. How disappointed would you be if she opened up a box of factory cookies?
What is wrought iron?
"Wrought" comes from the verb "to work" so wrought iron basically means that it is iron that has been worked on. Cast iron is melted, then poured into a mold whereas wrought iron. It is heated and then molded by a skilled blacksmith. Having the ability to create handmade scroll work makes wrought iron a desirable option for home designers. Wrought iron is tough, malleable, and has tensile strength making it an excellent choice.
Experts agree
By having a custom iron door, the entrance of your house sets the tone for the rest of your home. From the Washington Post's Home & Garden section, Jill Waage, executive editor of Better Homes and Gardens, remarked that front doors, "… speak to the personalization that people are doing all over their homes right now." An awe inspiring front door is the most cost effective pre-sale investment you can make to your home.By upgrading the entrance to your home you are increasing your property value and ultimately putting money in the bank. It's the best ROI that you give yourself.

Imagine a 9-year-old girl clad in shin guards and cleats. Her hair's pulled back in a ponytail and she's chasing a soccer ball up and down the field. She's sweating. She's breathing heavily. She's probably even throwing an elbow or two.
However, she's probably not worrying how fat she looks in her shorts.
Despite weight issues pervading the minds of girls as young as six, studies have shown that participation in sports is a mitigating influence on negative body image.
According to a study conducted by the Women's Sports Foundation, female athletes are more likely to have a positive body image, and less likely to consider themselves overweight, than their unathletic peers.
Our Culture of Weight Obsession
In the U.S., weight bias has become as common as prejudices based on sex and race. And it starts young. By the age of five, many children have grasped our society's weight intolerance and incorporated into their own viewpoints.
In a startling example of our daughters' body dysmorphia, a 2006 study by Levina Clark and Marika Tiggemann showed about half of girls between 9-12 rated their own bodies as too heavy, despite the fact only 15 percent of them were actually overweight.
Unfortunately, weight obsession is just the beginning. It can lead to eating disorders, depression, poor self-esteem, and even substance abuse.
Sports Participation Leads to Body Acceptance
Big boobs. Thin waist. Nice legs. Our society evaluates the female body on how sexually attractive men find it.
Sports, however, provide females with another judge and jury. Suddenly, men's sexual gratification isn't the only thing that matters. The female body has become a machine–a tool for optimal sports performance, and a girl who once viewed herself as tall and gawky can achieve body acceptance on the basketball court.
Athletics is the antidote to poor body image.
Girls who participate in three or more sports per year are more likely to have high scores on body-esteem measurements at all grade levels, according to Go Out and Play: Youth Sports in America.
Sports give females more than just an opportunity to view themselves differently. It provides them with a chance to make physical fitness a part of the rest of their lives. Exercise increases metabolism, improves physical conditioning, and as a result, enhances one's overall appearance.
Athletics has become a key link in the chain. Whether it's from developing an enlightened viewpoint or a healthier lifestyle, sports participation can help young girls battle our society's weight obsession.

A place where they will be savaged for all eternity...
From the Syracuse Post Standard:
"Cortland police officers entered the house on Union Street looking for drugs. They found 5 ounces of marijuana, but they also found a scene far more gruesome than they expected, Cortland police Chief James Nichols said."
"Bags of garbage covered the floors of 6 Union St. Cockroaches scurried about, and soiled diapers littered the home. Upstairs, a 5-year-old boy suffering from Down syndrome lay in a bedroom unable to speak or stand, Nichols said. Lice covered his body, and he sat in diapers full of his own waste."
The story gets worse from there.
We do not pay Police Officers enough.

- Pin the sheet protector on an easel and show your students how to trace each letter.
- Make sure that each letter has arrows and corresponding number to show the order of tracing each letter.
- Bring this order to the attention of the students and remind them to follow the directions of the arrows and the numbers in ascending order.
- Trace all the letters.
- Show them how to erase and fix any error they might make while tracing.

- Ask a few students to come to the easel and try to trace a letter by following your directions.
- Assist them in tracing the letters.
- Help them to fix any errors they might make.
- Ensure that they follow the order of arrows and numbers while tracing the letters.
Independent working time(10 minutes)
- Once a few students have tried tracing letters and the others have taken a look how it works, your students might want to try it on their own.
- Make sure that you have enough sets made ahead of time before you start the lesson.
- Send each student back to their work area with a sheet, dry erase marker, and eraser.
- Once they start working on their own, walk around to observe and assist them when need arises.

Assessment(5 minutes)
- Observe as the students work on their own.
- Take notes as you observe to see if the activity is being done easily or the students are having difficulty.
- Check to see if you need to increase or decrease the level of difficulty depending on your students' behavior.
Review and closing(5 minutes)
- At the end of the activity, call the students together in one group for discussion.
- Ask questions to see if the students remembered your directions about following the arrows and the numbers while tracing.

Fair play to Marty Morrissey and the lads for throwing open the doors. Surely the least the football community can do in return is make some effort not to sully the sacred sod with our Ole Ole-ing, our Mexican waving, our booing and our sundry other Tan habits.
This is an arena, we must remember, where the most complex spectator anthem thus far sung comprises the unforgettable lyrics, "Tipp! Tipp! Tipp! Tipp!"
And while there may be limited opportunities to roar "pull hard, he's no relation", we can make some effort to purge our matchday lingo of Anglo Saxon staples like "play the channels", "woahhh you're shitttttt ahhhhhh" and "who are ya, who are ya".
Instead, in an attempt to extend a hand of friendship to our new hosts, let's do our best to speak their language while availing of their hospitality.
Here are some helpful hints to get you started:
Greeting an enterprising debut:
"Jaysus, young McGeady is a good yoke. Is this his first year out of Minor?"
On learning bad news of domestic form:
"I heard that useless hoor Carr was cleaned out last Sunday above in Cardiff. The lad of the van Nistelrooys took him for two goals from play."
Handling the suspense of simultaneous internationals:
"Have you the wireless Mattie? I hear Switzerland were batin' Cyprus out the gate at half time."
What to do when a blow-in lines out:
"I can't place him. Is he a nephew of TJ Morrison of Gort? He has the go of him alright. They say TJ was the first man up to the top of Keeper Hill eight years running."
Looking on the bright side:
"The long fella of the Dohertys is a bit of a mullocker but sure he's a good man to put in to bust up the play."
Noting a lack of zest from a participant:
"Mother of Holy Saint Patrick, don't be standing back from it Holland. You're at nottin' in there."
Dispensing advice during a goalmouth scramble:
"Pull, pull agin! Pull agin! Pull agin!"
Greeting an early reducer:
"Stop the lights! That'll soften the bollox's cough for him."
The hurler on the ditch:
"What in the name a jaysus is Kilbane at? He wouldn't kick spuds to chickens."
Talking tactics:
"The thing is Mossy, and tis only my opingun, but if you put Duff out wing forward, you're still short of scoring forwards inside."
Reminiscing on fallen heroes:
"The bollox was fond of bacon but at the same time Harte is a big loss from placed balls."
Revisiting dietary patterns:
"A drop of Dutch Gold? No, you're grand Anto. Sure I have a bottle of tea for the sangwiches."

SCOUTING ARIZONA: The Wildcats are 4-2 on the season after an 84-65 loss at Ohio State on Sunday. That loss ended a four-game win streak for the Cats and caused them to drop to No. 23 in this week's Associated Press Top 25. Arizona also slipped to No. 23 in the WomensCollegeHoops.com Top 50 but remained at No. 24 in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches' Poll.
Sporting averages of 18.8 points and 13.3 rebounds per game, freshman center Shawntinice Polk leads Arizona in both categories. Sophomore guard Dee-Dee Wheeler is second in scoring, with 15.0 ppg, and is third in rebounding, with 4.0 rpg.
Senior forward Krista Warren is second in rebounding, averaging 7.0 boards per game, and is third in scoring (13.3 ppg). Junior guard Aimee Grzyb is fourth on the scoring chart (12.3 ppg), while senior guard Julie Brase leads the team with an average of 4.5 assists per game.
As a team, Arizona leads the Pac-10 in field goal percentage (.485) and is second in three-point field goal percentage (.394), blocked shots (3.83 bpg) and assists (18.83 apg). Individually, Polkey leads the league in rebounding (13.3 rpg) and is second in scoring (18.8 ppg) and blocked shots (2.17 bpg). Julie Brase is third in assists (4.50 apg), Krista Warren is third in field goal percentage (.648), and Dee-Dee Wheeler is third in three-pointers made (2.33 pg).
COUNTDOWN TO 200: Wildcat head coach Joan Bonvicini needs just three more victories to reach 200 wins at Arizona. She currently has 197 wins in 12 seasons with the Cats.
SCOUTING NEW MEXICO: On an eight-game win streak, the Lobos stand at 8-1 on the season after defeating Dartmouth (69-43) and Memphis (78-42) over the weekend to win their own Southwest Airlines Lobo Shootout. UNM lost its season opener at USC, 55-48, on Nov. 23 but has won every contest since. Seven of those eight wins were on UNM's home court.
The Lobos aren't ranked in the AP Poll this week, but they did receive 44 votes, just 10 votes away from the No. 25 spot. They are ranked No. 25 in this week's ESPN/USA Today Coaches' Poll, only one vote behind the Wildcats.
Sporting averages of 16.7 points and 7.3 rebounds per game, senior center Jordan Adams leads New Mexico in both categories. Senior forward Chelsea Grear is second in both, averaging 12.0 ppg and 6.4 rpg, and junior forward Melissa Forest is third in both scoring (10.9 ppg) and rebounding (5.7 rpg).
In his eighth year at the helm of the UNM program, head coach Don Flanagan holds a 152-73 record with the Lobos.
THE SERIES vs. NEW MEXICO: The all-time series between Arizona and New Mexico is tied at 7-7. The Lobos have won six of the last nine meetings with the Cats, including the last two in a row.
LAST TIME AGAINST NEW MEXICO: Despite a 17-point performance from Elizabeth Pickney, Arizona fell to New Mexico, 75-67, in Albuquerque on Nov. 27, 2001.
Arizona opened the game with an 11-4 spurt that was promptly answered by UNM, which scored 12 unanswered points to take a 16-12 lead midway through the first half. The Wildcats recovered to out-score the Lobos, 20-8, over the remainder of the period and held an eight-point (32-24) advantage at halftime.
The teams traded buckets through the early minutes of the second half, then New Mexico put on a 14-3 run that gave it a 45-42 lead at 11:46. Arizona scored back-to-back baskets, gaining a one-point (46-45) edge at 9:31, but that was the Cats' final lead in the game. The Lobos used a 13-6 spurt to go ahead by eight (68-60) with less than two minutes remaining, and the Wildcats never came closer than five over the waning seconds of the game.
In addition to her team-high 17 points, Pickney grabbed eight rebounds, also a team high. Fellow senior LaKeisha Taylor added 11 points and five rebounds, while Dee-Dee Wheeler had 10 points and six rebounds in her first collegiate start. Robin Roberson had a season-high eight points and grabbed four rebounds, and Candice Allen had seven points and a trio of steals.
RECAPPING LAST WEEKEND'S ACTION: A 22-5 run at the beginning of the second half gave Ohio State all the momentum it needed to defeat Arizona, 84-65, in Columbus on Sunday. The loss ended a four-game win streak for the then-19th-ranked Wildcats.
The first half was one of small spurts for both teams. Ohio State opened the game by out-scoring Arizona, 16-8, over the first seven minutes. The Wildcats responded with 12 unanswered points to pull ahead by four (20-16) at 9:45. OSU used its own 9-0 run to go back up by four (27-23) three minutes later, only to be out-scored by Arizona, 16-10, over the remainder of the period. The Cats held a narrow two-point (39-37) lead at the break.
The Buckeyes tied the game right away in the second half, but Arizona scored its own bucket to go back up by two just seconds later. Then the Cats began a stretch that saw them make only two of their next 14 field goal attempts, and in the meantime, OSU used a 22-5 run to go ahead by 15 points (61-46) by the 10:29 mark. Arizona came no closer than 12 points the remainder of the game, and the Buckeyes led by as much as 21 points (82-61) with 1:44 left.
The loss was the Wildcats' worst since falling by 19 (72-53) at Oregon on Jan. 4 of last season. It also ended the Cats' four-game win streak, which had been their longest in two seasons.
Shawntinice Polk led the Cats with 17 points and 11 rebounds. That was her sixth double-double in six games as a collegiate athlete, further extending her school-record streak of consecutive double-doubles.
Dee-Dee Wheeler was the only other player to reach double digits in scoring, tallying 11 points, three assists and a game-high three steals. Aimee Grzyb added nine points, while Natalie Jones notched eight points and Robin Roberson had six points to go with four rebounds.
ARIZONA HEAD COACH JOAN BONVICINI: The winningest coach in Arizona women's basketball history, Joan Bonvicini has nurtured the Wildcat program into an upward-rising powerhouse. In her previous 11 seasons at the helm of the Arizona program, Bonvicini guided the Wildcats to six post-season appearances, including four NCAA tournament berths and two in the WNIT.
Now in her 12th season with the Wildcats, Bonvicini holds a 197-133 (.597) mark at Arizona and is 522-204 (.719) in 23 years as a head coach. She is 23-14 in NCAA tournament play and has never lost a first-round game in 13 appearances.
Prior to taking over at the UA, Bonvicini led Long Beach State to 10 consecutive NCAA appearances, including two trips to the Final Four. She registered a 325-71 mark in 12 seasons with the 49ers.
DID YOU KNOW: Since Joan Bonvicini took over the Arizona program in 1991, the Wildcats have gone 103-94 against Pac-10 teams, although they have a 69-39 league mark over the last six seasons combined.
THE REST OF THE STAFF: Awarded the title of associate head coach in 1998, Denise Dove Ianello (Northern Illinois, 1992) is in her 11th year at the UA, functioning as both the team's recruiting coordinator and a perimeter coach. In his fourth year at the UA, assistant coach Curtis Loyd (Southern Utah, 1994) is involved with scouting and with coaching the post players and is the director of the Joan Bonvicini Hoop Camp. Assistant coach Kellee Barney (Idaho, 1983) was just added to the Wildcat staff last February, and her duties include recruiting, scouting and floor work with the players.
LOOKING AHEAD: Arizona hits the road again this weekend for a game at UNLV on Sunday, Dec. 22, at 5 p.m. PST. After Christmas, the Wildcats open Pac-10 action in the Bay Area, playing at California on Dec. 27 and at Stanford on Dec. 29.
ALLEN OUT INDEFINITELY: Junior guard Candice Allen is taking some time away from the team to deal with some personal issues. Her return has yet to be determined.
POLKEY CONTINUES RECORD DOUBLE-DOUBLES STREAK: Shawntinice Polk has registered a double-double in each of the season's six games so far, becoming the first player in UA history to have six double-doubles in a row. The previous high was four in a row by Adia Barnes midway through the 1996-97 season.
SHARING THE WEALTH: The Wildcats have had four different leading scorers in the season's six games. Polk is the only player who has led the Cats in scoring in more than one game.
80 IS THE MAGIC NUMBER: It seems that the 80-point mark almost always means adding another to the 'win' column for the Wildcats. In the 31-year history of UA women's basketball, the Cats have posted a 142-21 record when scoring 80 points or more in a game. Under Bonvicini, the Wildcats have gone 102-14 when topping that 80-point plateau.
CHECKING THE RPIs: In this week's WBCA/Summerville RPI listings, Arizona's RPI rank is No. 22, and its strength of schedule rank is No. 37. Six of the Cats' opponents this season are in the top 50 in the RPI rankings -- Stanford (No. 10), USC (No. 11), Illinois (No. 21), Ohio State (No. 27), Georgia (No. 28) and New Mexico (No. 35).
GOING POLLING: Ten of the 18 opponents on the Cats' 2002-03 schedule were either ranked or received votes for ranking in this week's polls.
In the Associated Press Top 25, LSU is ranked No. 2, Stanford is No. 5 and Georgia is No. 20. New Mexico, Washington, Arizona State, Illinois, Ohio State and Oregon were all among teams that received votes for ranking.
In the USA Today/ESPN Coaches' Poll, LSU is No. 3, Stanford is No. 5, Georgia is No. 20, and New Mexico is No. 25. Washington, Ohio State, Arizona State and Pepperdine all received votes for ranking.
LOVE THOSE TV GAMES: Dating back to last season, Arizona has won seven of its last eight televised contests. The Wildcats were 6-0 in televised games last season alone. Over the last four seasons, the Cats have a 10-8 record in games that are broadcast on TV.
CURRENT CATS ON THE UA CAREER LISTS: Wildcat senior Julie Brase is fourth in on the UA career list in three-point percentage (.373), fifth in career three-pointers made (93) and is sixth in three-pointers attempted (249).
Senior forward Krista Warren is tied for fifth in career rebounding average (5.3 rpg), is tied for 10th in double-doubles (7) and is tenth in field goal percentage (.488).
Junior guard Aimee Grzyb is third in career three-pointers attempted (298), third in three-pointers made (109), fourth in minutes-played average (30.4 mpg) and fifth in career three-point percentage (.366).

THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME: The Wildcats have won 32 of their last 42 home games and are 54-15 on their home court over the last five seasons combined. During Joan Bonvicini's 12 seasons at Arizona, the Wildcats have posted a 119-50 mark in McKale Center. Arizona has an all-time record of 185-158 on its home court since the 1976-77 season.

THE CATS AND PAC-10 OPENERS: Under Joan Bonvicini, Arizona has a 7-4 mark in Pac-10 openers and has won its first conference contest in seven of the last nine years.

This cross-campus, cross-disciplinary interaction makes Oklahoma Research Day the premier academic research event in the state.
The first Research Day in Oklahoma was held in 1999 and included 233 poster presentations by students and faculty from colleges and universities across Oklahoma. Now in its 12th year, Oklahoma Research Day has grown in numbers and stature. Contributions come from all of Oklahoma's institutions of higher learning, many in collaboration with national and international research and academic institutions. The number of poster presentations has grown to more than 600, with more than 1200 students, faculty and guests in attendance.
Presentation of the research project posters is scheduled from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. A banquet luncheon will begin at 1 p.m., with a keynote address by Dr. Jerry Malayer, OK EPSCoR State Director.

Economic growth is strongly related to confidence. When CEO's get worried, as they did after the demise of Lehman last Fall, they cut costs first and ask questions later. Economic confidence is closely tied to employment, a topic we follow closely at "A Dash." Employment indicators often lag actual economic progress when employers are quick to fire and slow to hire.
We do not all share a common interest. It would be nice to think that all hope for an economic recovery, but that perspective is mistaken. Here are some obvious exceptions.
Political Opponents
Perhaps in a perfect world there would be a few years in a political cycle where everyone in the country all pulled together. It occasionally happens when there is a specific and imminent common enemy — after 9-11 for example. Most of the time private motives dominate over the public interest.
Partisan Politics
Quite frankly, there are many who hope for the economic recovery plans to fail. There are strong partisan reasons. The most important members of this group are running for office in 2010. Their personal stake is huge. There will be a constant barrage of partisan economic criticism.
Bearish Pundits, Commentators, and Fund Managers
There are many who stand to profit from a market decline. The many bearish pundits have credibility and book royalties on the line. The commentators have prestige, jobs, salary, and bonuses at stake. Sometimes personal motives outweigh a national interest.
Some hedge fund managers have aggressively short positions. Anyone paying attention knows that these positions are always supported by the Bearish Blogging Network (BBN) where there is direct or indirect compensation for supportive bloggers.
With so many providing so much negative commentary, it is easy to be led astray. Let us consider a specific example. The Fed Balance Sheet
A good way to begin is by removing the most obvious issue, question #4 from our quiz. Information about the Fed balance sheet is readily available, specific, and timely. Those taking a bearish viewpoint have emphasized the growth in the Fed balance sheet, including loans to various financial institutions. The critics have suggested that this growth was part of the Obama Administration efforts and also that it puts taxpayers at risk.
Here is a recent report from Macroblog, one of our featured sites:
There are three key facts from this report:
- The increase in the Fed balance sheet dates from the Lehman failure and the aggressive response, not from the start of the Obama Administration.
- The overall size is declining slightly.
- The distribution of assets has shifted from the riskier short-term lending to non-bank financials, moving to agency paper.
From a public policy perspective, the Fed has attempted to restore what we refer to as "normal lending". The Fed recognized a market failure, where credit markets seized up. This step is aggressive and temporary.
From an investment perspective it is crucial to understand the nature of the policy. Some portray the balance sheet expansion as a "bailout" or an unlimited commitment. This portrayal is calculated to frighten the individual investor. It it not accurate.
Restoring confidence will be an uphill battle. It begins with better understanding of the policy.
Full disclosure: Our current posture, reported weekly, is bearish, reflecting market sentiment. We see the bearish case as overstated, but realize the evidence will come one piece at a time.
We are working to find the catalysts for a changed perspective.

Although brushing and flossing are extremely effective for maintaining your oral health, they may not be the best option for whitening your smile. Instead, try teeth whiteners. With teeth whiteners, you can attack deep stains and discolorations in your teeth.
The highest quality tooth whitening system you can try is available at your dentist office in the form of a profession whitening treatment. These treatments can effectively improve your teeth by up to 10 whole shades in a single visit. In addition, the whitening trays are custom fitted to your dental profile and the gels used are safe.
Not all tooth whitening products are considered safe. Due to the fact there are no governmental regulations about teeth whiteners, some store-bought products might not be exactly what they advertise. Some can bleach your teeth while others may have no effect at all. If you are ever unsure about a product, contact your dentist.
If you are looking for teeth whitening treatments in Eagle River, Alaska, come see Eagle Summit Dental Group soon. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Michael Sanders, simply call our dentist office at 907-694-8234. With the help of our team and professional teeth whitening treatments, the pathway to a whiter smile can be yours.

There has been one drearily reliable constant in U.S.-Russian relations over the past 25 years: The Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations have come into office committed to improving relations with Moscow and each has not merely failed, but failed spectacularly, while the Trump administration also is well on the way to going off the rails with America's former Cold War nemesis.
Many journalists and Russia hands -- the nickname for people who devote their public lives to trying to understand Russia -- find this to be an abiding mystery, most recently Keith Gessen in a New York Times Magazine story that covers a lot of real estate but also fails -- and fails at considerable length -- to shed new light on the conundrum, let alone solve it. This at a time the Russia scandal investigation is entering its second year, the tug of war between Special Counsel Robert Mueller and Trump and his Vichy Republican allies is dominating headlines, and the longterm failure of U.S. Russia policy has taken on a new importance.
The prevailing theory about why relations between Washington and Moscow have been so poor is not without merit and goes something like this:
The U.S. has never gotten past the idea that it "won" the Cold War and as a result needs to spread, even at considerable diplomatic and geopolitical cost, the American way of life.That is the big takeaway from the Gessen takeout and is echoed by the usual Russia hand suspects, all of whom are not exactly household names in the U.S. These suspects include Strobe Talbott (Bill Clinton administration), Thomas Graham (George W. Bush administration), Michael McFaul (Obama administration), and for our purposes most notably Victoria Nuland, who was assistant secretary of state for Europe and Eurasia during Barack Obama's second term and his administration's leading spokesperson on Russia.
As Gessen notes, these people are as well known in Russia as they are obscure in the U.S., and no one more so than Nuland.
So well known in Russia that when Nastya Rybka, a "professional sex coach" and former mistress of Oleg Deripaska, a Russian aluminum oligarch, Vladimir Putin pal and person of (considerable) interest to Mueller because of his ties to former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, was busted in Thailand earlier this year, she claimed to have the "missing link" in proving collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign to cyberscrew Hillary Clinton.
Rybka, in appealing to the U.S. to prevent her deportation to Russia, pointed to a video shot aboard Deripaska's yacht in 2016 in which Deripaska discusses the sorry state of Washington-Moscow relations with Sergei Prikhodko, Putin's deputy prime minister.
"Our relations with America are bad," Deripaska tells Prikhodko as Nastya and other for-hire babes look on. "Why? Because the person in charge of them is . . . Nuland is what she is called. When she was young — about your age — she spent a month living on a Soviet whaling vessel. Ever since then, she's hated our country."
A BIG REASON THAT NULAND IS, IN TURN, HATED in Russia is that in 2013, as a newly confirmed assistant secretary of state under Putin arch nemesis Hillary Clinton, she became the most visible U.S. government representative when large street protests erupted in Kiev against the pro-Moscow president of Ukraine following his decision to pull out of an economic agreement with the European Union, which eventually would lead to his ouster and flight to Moscow aboard a helicopter arranged by Putin.
Nuland was videotaped handing out sandwiches, pastries and cookies to the protesters in what the Kremlin and everyday Russians viewed as a provocative show of American anti-Russian solidarity with the protesters. (Never mind that Nuland had done the same for government riot police.) And later, to add insult to injury, she said in a call to Washington most likely intercepted by Russian intelligence and then leaked that the U.S. should not work with the E.U. to resolve the crisis.
"Fuck the E.U.," Nuland memorably said.
Obama's efforts to "reset" relations with Russia by lowering tensions and focusing on an emergent China as a worrisome global player went pfft! Nuland's hospitality was recast by Putin's propaganda machine as yet another instance of an American president dictating policy to Moscow.
BUT THE PRIMARY FACTOR IN THE SORRY STATE of U.S.-Russian relations over the past 25 years is not Washington's belief that it "won" the Cold War and can dictate the terms of the relationship, let alone Nuland's cookie diplomacy. The U.S. indeed did "win" the Cold War, but it "won" by default. The Soviet Union was on the verge of a monumental collapse and nothing the hallowed Ronald Reagan did hastened that inevitability, the beliefs of conservative Republican myth makers aside. Nor were the actions of Bill Clinton and his successors particularly to blame.
The cause was, to a great extent, these presidents' reactions, specifically to:
Boris Yeltsin catastrophically botching the dramatic shift from the centralized Soviet economy of state ownership to a market economy, which enabled cash-rich mobsters and corrupt government officials like Prikhodko to privatize and loot state-held assets.
And after Putin succeeded Yeltsin, Russia's feared intelligence agencies joining forces with mobsters and oligarchs like Deripaska, whom Putin has given a free hand so long as they help enrich him and strengthen his grip on the country.I know this view seems Cold Warriorish. It is not. And this is not to overlook Clinton's Kosovo adventure, Bush's response to the Russian bombing of Georgia, let alone Obama's sanctions in response to the Russian annexation of Crimea, all of which mightily ticked off Putin and everyday Russians, who get their news through that well-oiled propaganda machine.
This is what is called realistic, and the self-flagellation of many Russia hands over Who Lost Russia? is downright silly because Russia already was lost when Putin strongarmed his way to power and then rigged subsequent elections. Nothing any America president could do was going to change that.
Meanwhile, what is Trump's Russia policy and who is his top Russia adviser?
Trump has no policy beyond making nice with Putin and issuing frequently nonsensical executive orders, while his top adviser is . . . Putin, whose views he has valued over his own national security and foreign policy hands, including former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, whose ouster by Tweet followed his break with Trump over the need to get tough with Russia after the poisoning in England of former Russian spy Sergei Skripal.
Trump has never criticized Putin and has long denied that Russia interfered in the election that plopped him in the Oval Office, while Putin is never going to acquiesce to accommodation with the U.S. no matter how benevolent Washington is. That collides with his goal of knocking the U.S. from its perch as the sole remaining global superpower and returning Russia . . . yes, to its former Cold War glory by any means necessary.
This includes undermining a bedrock of American democracy by helping elect Trump, whose Make America Great "vision" is as devoid of substance as Putin's own vision. And no less dangerous.

Reconnecting church and earth in the 21st century – 29th April 2014
The Bishop of Dorchester is hosting the "Reconnecting church and earth in the 21st century" event at Dorchester Abbey on Tuesday April 29t 2014, 10am to 3.30pm.
In the biblical story of creation in Genesis the writer pictures humankind being formed from the earth and at the same time given responsibility for the creation. That theological metaphor shapes and determines the Christian's understanding of our relationship to and stewardship of the earth. The purpose of our gathering will be to discover afresh how the church can continue to connect with the issues facing the land and the environment, and particularly build a partnership with the earth trust.
During the day we shall hear about the work of the earth trust at Little Wittenham, an update from the Environment Adviser, Matt Freer, and an introduction about the new Thames Path Pilgrimage from Sarah Meyrick (Strategic Adviser to the Bishop of Oxford and Diocesan Director of Communications).
The Bishop of Dorchester explains that: "The idea for this event arose after an excellent visit I had to the Earth Trust last autumn. I am keen not only to link the work the Earth Trust is doing with our churches and church schools in the diocese. I hope this event will go some way towards building stronger links. I hope you will be able to join me for this day!"

The first hints of springtime are still a few weeks away, but I already feel my spirit start to lift at the longer light during the day, the higher cast of the sunlight through my windows and the calendar being mere weeks away from the equinox.
I remember spring as a child. Growing up in a colder valley, the winter months were darker and icier and snowier than where I live now. Those first few days of thaw that brought in the scent of spring were treasures beyond measure: urging my mother to boot her kids outside after digging in the trunk for the spring jackets. We donned these light coats with glee and waiting impatiently for Dad to grab our bikes from the shed. They were dusty and creaky. We'd wipe them down, he'd oil up the gears. It was never fast enough for us, my sister and I anxiously watching all the other neighbourhood kids riding circles around the street.
Finally, he'd roll the bikes over to us and away we'd go. Usually there were still dirty snowbanks reluctantly hanging on, little overhangs of ice along the gutters as the melt rushed along underneath. We'd ride and crack the ice and crumble the snowbanks, getting our bike legs back, the melted ice spraying our backs with mud.
The one thing that I remember the most is the popping sound of the gravel under my tires as I pedaled endlessly around our street. The sand left behind from the gravel trucks puffed up behind us and the tires would shoot bits of rock away. The crisp tings and pops of the stuff ricocheting off the edges of our tires were the sounds of spring to me. The chickadee's song came later and made my spirits soar like no other, but to this day when I hear the crunch and pop of gravel under a bike tire, I am again a 10 year old girl, hair in pigtails, cruising Mountain Ash Crescent on my banana seat bike, feeling that cool air stream over my face. I can taste the dust, I can hear the shrieks of laughter, I can feel the grips in my hands. It brings me joy to this day of unequaled strength, a mystical remembrance of days gone by that are still alive in my heart.
So keep the faith my winter friends. In just a few short weeks, that wind will change from icy to fresh. Our windows will be flung open and the birds will dance with glee. And on those days, I wish you nothing but child-like joy in welcoming Spring back to us.

Brent Slides On Libyan Port Reopening
Brent crude oil suffered its largest loss in almost a month, bringing it down near $108.
The commodity was steady at $108.31 at 4:30 GMT on Tuesday morning after an increase in Libyan supply was announced.
Reuters reported that Libya's state-run National Oil Corp said on Monday that it would lift a force majeure from its Zeuitina oil port.
The reopening of this eastern port is the second after the government made a deal with rebels to unblock major terminals after eight months of depressed exports.
Though the markets have responded to the announcement, many analysts see investors as cautious until operations are underway. Libya has been working to reopen its export terminals for some time, and this is not the first time the government has said they would resume production.

The conflict in Ukraine remains a factor for Brent prices, but investors were unconcerned about the effects of new sanctions against Russia on its energy supply. After the tension between Moscow and the West increased over the weekend due to a hostage situation in Ukraine, US officials implemented more sanctions on Russian businesses and individuals with ties to President Vladimir Putin. Despite the escalation, most don't expect that the conflict will reach a point at which energy or crude is affected.
Meanwhile, US commercial crude stockpiles are expected to have risen 1.9 million barrels in the week ending on April 25, a new high. Last week's reports showed that crude inventories had grown to 397.7 million barrels, the highest level in more than 30 years.

Portadown was still in a profound state of shock yesterday following the harrowing news that respected elderly couple Michael and Marjorie Cawdery had been stabbed to death by an intruder on Friday afternoon.
Upper Ramone Park, on the northern outskirts of the town, is a quiet cul-de-sac, built some 40 years ago and now occupied mainly by retired professional people, particularly by ex-staff (and some present staff) of Craigavon Area Hospital, from which reports claim the alleged killed "walked" just before the double atrocity.
Church-goers were shocked that the 83-year-olds, who had served the veterinary world with such distinction, were so brutally killed.
Mr Cawdery was a world-renowned expert in the field of veterinary pathology.
They kept themselves to themselves in their distinctive home at Upper Ramone, where many members of my church (Armagh Road Presbyterian) are residents, past and present.
Among them are a laboratory scientist at the hospital, across a narrow lane and over a high fence, an ex-nurse, and – in other professions – an estate agent, former teacher and a retired business couple.
Some knew the Cawderys just by sight, others personally, and all described them as "a delightful couple who obviously contributed so much over their years of service".
One woman – who had lived in Upper Ramone and had moved to the area where the suspect was apprehended – summed it up.
"I couldn't believe what had happened in quiet Ramone, or that his trail had led so close to my present home."
A present Ramone resident – long retired – commented: "Something will have to be done to improve security from the hospital. There have been scary incidents before, with helicopters sent up to spot escaped patients – especially from the psychiatric unit and these have been swiftly resolved.
"But after this, we are very uneasy, and when the dust settles, we want to set up meetings with the authorities."
Our current minister, Rev Christina Bradley, said prayers for the family of the Cawderys. And our senior (retired) minister, Rev Campbell Wilson, rang me from his Banbridge home to check on his former "flock".

Gabriel our beautiful white boy has been neutred and after Carolynn did a real screaning - we found a good forever home for him.
He has now two ( also neutred of course) girlfriends. A sphynx and a bambino. We wish him all the best in his new forever home
We will continue his lines with his two white daughters.
We decidet also to neuter Leo, since there never came any kittens from him. And when he was neutred we found the answer of why he never produced any babies. There was extra thickness in his spermatic cord making him infertile.
Leo is such a beautiful and sweet boy, but he will now have his foreverhome with our friends who has had him as a host cat all the time.
When it comes to the classic pattern, we have thankfully another beautiful boy who can produce babies.
He has now mated Fantasy, so we are crossing fingers!!
Jarda lives together with Leo, so I have not seen him as much as Carolynn. But after having Jarda on visit, I am amazing of his wonderful clear and clean pattern, and his elegance!! Wow - when we strech him, he never ends!
So we are very courious of what the future will look like for future offspring. Other than that, he is nonstop-purring boy - just as we want our studs to be like.
Ziva has also been mated with Charlie again. With only two kittens and two kittens that was often found in Dotty's milkbar - Ziva was not worn out.
So if everything goes well, and if both our girls gets pregnant - we will see new babies during Spring.
We are cossing fingers, 2 mothers are always the best option for this breed - since they love company and sharing babies.
Earlier this week did also Dotty move to her final destination - her new home - decidet a long time ago - before Tiger fell totally in love with her ;-)
Her babies are well taken care of by Ziva,Fantasy,Cover and Sparkling - so lot's of love and caring.
Even from our dogs .
The blue siamese boy after Ziva and Charlie was the first baby to leave us - and he is doing great with his new lovely family . He gets spoiled and have people to snuggle with 24/7 and love his St.Bernard brother.
The seal siamese baby was the second to leave us - and he did also walk inside his new home with his tail in the air and charmed everyone. Loved his new parents and feline family - took them by charm - and he has alot of that!
We are so happy and proud when babies are moving to a new home is a peace of cake.
Here is the last pics of the OSH siblings together under my roof.
Amber - the kitten in the litter with the most beautiful eyes and a never-ending tail.Her look is naughty and her look is not lying :D One of her speciality is to kill my fake plants and is chewing on my books if I don't pay her most of the attention. She will during April move to Bergen and live with a siamese girl - future very spoiled girls - I have a strong feeling of that:
Christian - he was so much alike his daddy when he was around 2 weeks old - but he has developed into another lookalike relative - if you can remember a boy we called "Stitch" - a son after Jimmy and Ozzie. Christian will be a huge boy. He has a Vet appointment very soon, and not so long after that he will move to Stavanger to be the charming Prince. He is a very lovable purring boy.
Ray : Little Ray will not be moving longer than back to his daddy Tiger. He has been checked by our Vet - he is still little and need more time to grow. He is no longer a picky eater we see changes from day to day. When he has an optimal size he will be moving to his forever home. He has a special place in everyone hearts - so noone minds having him around a little longer.
And then to the 3 last girls - who will be seen at the show bench later on. At least Daisy and Georgia.
Daisy - Daisy will move to Dotty's breeder in Finland and continue in her breeding programme.
She will get a huge kitten - she is elegant filled with muscles - but we hope she will stop growing some day :D Daisy is also the naughty kind - and she has a special bond with Cookie - our female GSD. She is also very helping around the kitchen. Making food and tasting after - she is not picky :D She got very satisfied after we told her that her new mommy is an exellent chief hi hi.
Golden Wishes - our keeper girl. When she was born I knew she has to stay - regardless what she would developed in to. But she developed in to a beautiful girl.
Not perfect - who is? But she has my favorite colour,my favorite pattern and she looks so much like daddy when he was a baby.
And after all these weeks - she has become besties with both my dogs. A huge pluss - because it is so important that my cats get along well with them. This girl eats with Cookie and wrestle with Jesse. She has the same conection to the dogs as Fantasy has - it is a joy to watch.
At last - Georgia - This girl I had plans for a long time to keep - but we change our mind a few weeks ago. I don't run down all the catshows - but this girl is also very beautiful, and she deserved to be shown - if she likes it in time.
She is very elegant and beautiful.
It has been a real joy to also follow this litter week from week.
Getting to know them and see all their great qualities.
I love the whole litters eye colour - it has developed so nicly. And I love their pattern.
All of them are a bunch of sofa-snugglers so nothing to say about their temperament either.
I wish all of them who shall move to their new homes soon all the best.
I will kiss and couddle them some more days - before they will be moving back to daddy Tiger.
Thankfully Golden Wishes will move home quickly again - after her Vet stuff has been done.
After the pics was taken - it was good with a little siesta in the sun -all of them beside Ray who had eating plans after - so he rushed fast in to the kitchen .
Pepsi snuggled up insted in the crowd.

In a defense-dominated battle between Class 4A heavyweights, it was fitting that a gritty 3-yard carry by Glencoe-Silver Lake junior Dalton Clouse was the play that turned the game around against Becker.
Seventh-ranked Glencoe-Silver Lake trailed by seven points midway through the third quarter as it lined up to punt on fourth-and-2 from its own 44. The Panthers snapped the ball directly to Clouse, and the 200-pound fullback lumbered up the middle for the first down.
Quarterback Keaton Anderson ran 54 yards for a touchdown on the next play for the Panthers' first points. The Panthers controlled the game from there, and pulled away for a 21-9 upset of No. 4-ranked Becker in Glencoe.
"That fake punt was huge for us, and (the coaches) didn't even call it," Panthers coach Scott Tschimperle said. "We had a senior in the huddle who said, 'Let's go for it.' He's lucky it worked out, but that's the confidence we want from our senior leadership."
Anderson finished with 91 yards rushing and scored all three Glencoe-Silver Lake touchdowns, while the Panthers defense held the Becker offense in check much of the night.
Becker's Tommy Benson came into the night with more than 1,200 yards passing through five games. He finished 9-for-16 for 81 yards and a touchdown.
"Our defense was incredible tonight, just incredible," Tschimperle said.
Benson drove the Bulldogs 80 yards on the first possession of the third quarter, hitting Joel Hopkins on an 8-yard fade to the back of the end zone. But Becker wouldn't get inside the red zone again.
The Panthers (5-1) took the lead when Anderson threw an 11-yard scoring strike to Reed Dunbar. Anderson scored on a 1-yard run that sealed the victory late in the fourth quarter.

I hosted a giveaway on my blog for a copy of my latest design which is now named as Hira. I got some lovely suggestions, but I got some feedback from friends and folks that the original name I have chosen (Hira) is quite good too. I found it to be a bit boring, probably because it is such a commonly used word in India. After some contemplation, I decided to stick with it. That could be a let down for all you guys, so I decided to choose two winners randomly (instead of one, as I had initially planned).
So, here are the winners:
1. purplesweetpea
2. AmyS
Congratulations both of you. I will be contacting you both ever email.
Thanks for participating everybody.
