Create plan to cope with hurdles you may face as you quit smoking.
If you're like many smokers and other tobacco users, you know you should quit — you just aren't sure how to do it. Creating a quit-smoking plan may improve your chances of stopping for good. Having a plan helps prepare you for coping with the physical and emotional issues that often arise when you stop smoking, such as nicotine withdrawal and strong urges to smoke.
Sure, you may be able to list plenty of reasons to stop smoking. You may be worried about the health problems related to smoking, the social stigma, the expense or the pressure from loved ones. But only you can decide when you're ready to stop smoking.
You may spend a lot of time thinking about quitting smoking before you're ready to actually do it. If you're thinking about quitting, go ahead and pick a specific day to quit — your quit day — and then plan for it.
Pick a specific day within the next month to quit smoking. Don't set your quit day too far in the future, or you may find it hard to follow through. But don't quit before you have a quit-smoking plan in place, either. Having a day in mind can help you prepare for what to expect and line up helpful support. Pick a random day as your quit day, or pick a day that holds special meaning for you, such as a birthday or anniversary, a holiday, or a day of the week that's generally less stressful for you.
What if you decide to quit smoking on the spur of the moment? Follow the quit-day advice and go for it.

d.brand sent over a preview of their fall 2012 line (which we previewed up-close in the showroom recently), featuring desaturated, autumnal tones and some biker-esque looks for both sexes. Dark wash jeans, roughed-up textures, and rich colors like golden-mustard yellow and forest green are among the looks we adore. We went nuts over these yellow jeans already (which they offer for both men and women), but this lookbook preview really showcases sportswear they're amping up: puff jackets, faux-fur collared bombers, cozy over-sized sweaters, and printed sweatshirts.
See men's & women's looks below:
[nggallery id=1049]
We'll have much more of the d.brand fall 2012 line on the way (including first-hand reviews), so stay tuned.

The Week of a Canucks Bandwagoner (Episode III)
Austin Wallace
April 25 2013 02:31PM
Photograph by Jeremy Lim.
If you believe in luck or superstitions, maybe I shouldn't be writing here in the playoffs. The games after I write my weekly bandwagoner article, the Canucks play terribly. After my first article, the Canucks lost to the Avalanche for the first time in regulation in three years. After the second article, that was the Dallas 5-1 game. If you look at the news coming out after that game, the vocal majority was certainly foretelling the doom and gloom of a first round exit. It also seems like I write my article at high points of our collective confidence in the Canucks. All of a sudden, the Canucks feel like worldbeaters again after beating a dominant Blackhawks team. So yeah, I'm a little scared.
Read past the jump.
The Corrado Kid
Photograph by Jeff Vinnick NHLI/Getty
Hate to break it to you, but Corrado's first game is not predictive at all of what we can expect of him going forward.
Backed up by Mike Gillis's comments on being willing to burn a year off Corrado's ELC if he is helping the team (wonderfully laid out here by Drance), I can already feel the expectations for Corrado growing. But this is not a situation where the daunting prospect of a second contract makes his ELC invaluable.
Corrado has been compared to Chris "Cucumber" Tanev, but with a bigger shot and a more physical presence. Simply from the way they play, this is obviously a comparison borne from convenience. Having said that, I would like to take some time to thoroughly dispense of that myth.
Firstly, Tanev broke into the league playing a strictly defensive game with a great first pass and ice in his veins. Corrado, on the other hand, is currently playing as a physical two-way defensemen. Corrado had more hits in his first game with the Canucks than Tanev had in his first twelve games combined. Corrado attempted three shots on goal in his first game. I don't know how many games it took for Tanev to try his first slapper, but I do know that its velocity doesn't touch Corrado's.
On the other hand, while Corrado displayed good gap control, he doesn't have the same exceptional patience or positioning in his own end as Tanev, and I doubt he will show the same proficiency for blocking shots.
Corrado is more than a year younger than Tanev was at this point in his rookie season. Tanev played 39 regular season games in the AHL and NHL before suiting up for the Canucks in the playoffs. Corrado may play three games in the AHL and three in the NHL. Corrado has played 84 games this year, the first time he has reached the eighty game plateau.
I'm not arguing that Corrado is better or worse than Tanev or that he won't produce for the team. What I'm saying is that Tanev is not a great comparison. Expecting Corrado to be a contributing player over the course of any sort of playoff run is too much, too soon. Let alone expecting him to hold his own against the Kanes/Toews/Hossas of the world over an entire season.
Right now, there is little applicable film on Corrado for teams to study and exploit. Over a best of seven series, teams learn and adapt. Every flaw in his game will be exploited if he is leaned on in any sort of capacity and Vigneault knows this all too well.
In his 83rd game of the season, with adrenaline coursing through his veins, Corrado played an exceptional game against exceptional players. He may play equally well in his 84th game and every game thereafter, but don't base your expectations off of one game, or five. Five games into his tenure with the Canucks, Kassian was our playoff savior and Bertuzzi born again. How'd that work out?
I'm pleading with you Canucks fans and bandwagoners, Don't put pressure on the Corrado kid, and if he completely gets destroyed in the next couple of games against quality NHL players, don't be surprised or disappointed. Corrado is the Canucks's best defensive prospect, however, expecting much of anything these playoffs from him is far too premature.
Jumping On Another Bandwagon
When a fan jumps from one bandwagon, he or she is more often than not treated to a Bear-fur comfy, King-sized landing in another. In reality though, the grass is often just as green here as it is on the other side.
If all the readers here wanted to bet me a few dollars that the team of their choice will win the cup, I will gladly take all comers and come out the other side with a good chunk of change. While Chicago or Pittsburg might be the favorites to win the cup, it's still a slim chance whenever one is taken against the field. As we Canucks fans know all to well, a first seed really only does so much.
All things considered, I think the Canucks chances of winning this year are at least equivalent to what they were last season. The team seems to have everyone but Booth getting healthy at the right time (knock on massive, appropriate wood). The depth on the wing is fine. If Schroeder impresses, Vancouver's top two lines will be elite. Otherwise, Sedin/Kesler/Roy/Lapierre isn't that bad down the middle. Canucks goaltending is at least as good as it was in 2010-11; the worst case scenario, Schneider's "body" deciding to take a couple weeks off, involves the Canucks getting a well rested, fired up, circa-2010 Olympics, Luongo as option 1B. By the way, thank Gillis that Scrivens will not be the lodestone for the team's playoff hopes! Imagine if Luongo was gone and we had a Scrivens/Cannata pair leading the Canucks into the playoffs. The bandwagon would be decidedly desolate.
Sure, the competition this season is stiff. Chicago has been incredible and Pittsburg is loaded in a way that really should be against the rules. As always, teams built for a rough playoff run such as St. Louis, Boston and LA are a threat and will wear any team down. But just remember, the Canucks are pretty darn good too. To win the cup, a team must be good, but being good is a necessary condition to hoisting lord Stanley's mug, it's not sufficient. The Canucks have been consistently good enough to win a cup for three years now and one of these years I am maybe they'll even be good enough to win. Feel free to jump, but the grass hasn't gotten any less green over here.
I don't know how ready Frank Corrado is, but if he does play in the playoffs I think the biggest benefit he will bring is that of an enabler by virtue of being a right-shot D. Even if he doesn't play quite as well as some other players, he may help the D overall by allowing the rest to play in position.
One game isn't a fair sample, but if his presence helps Alex Edler keep his head on straight and play more consistently, that's also a benefit.

Unisex Baby Names
Hollywood's Latest Baby Trend: Unisex Names
After several years of assigning unique names to their children, celebrity moms have turned traditional with a slight twist. Call out for Sam, Billy, or Dylan to come on over, and you may not see the little boy you expected. Instead, Hollywood mamas are giving their lil ones unisex monikers, though sometimes with a creative spelling. The newest trend, which new parents Rebecca Gayheart and Eric Dane continued with the birth of Billie last month, should make psychologists happy given their research showing that choosing a unique name may be a sign of narcissism.

Video: Thanks for the memories – Norwich City legend Ken Brown on the football world's birthday messages
08:15 19 February 2014
Thanks for the memories – that was the message from an overwhelmed Ken Brown after he was presented with a book of stories and anecdotes from some of Norwich City's most famous names.
The 'life book' was compiled by his wife, Elaine, to mark the former Canaries manager's 80th birthday, and presented to him on Sunday.
It includes messages from family, friends and famous figures ranging from Sir Alex Ferguson to David Essex, as well as poignant memories from former players and team-mates at Norwich City and West Ham United.
Now fans are being invited to send in their memories of the former City manager to be included in an extended version of the book.
Happy birthday, Ken Brown: Sir Alex Ferguson, Sir Trevor Brooking and Norwich City heroes pay tribute to 'the gaffer'
Martin O'Neill, Terry Venables, Dave Watson and other Norwich City legends share their memories of Ken Brown
Mr Brown said he had been "gobsmacked" at the tributes – but had still not worked his way through them all.
"It still hasn't sunk in yet - there are so many people and names in the book that bring so many memories back," he said.
"I just don't know where it's all come from. It's hard to put it into words and it takes the wind out of you. I've had such a lucky life."
Messages and memories have also been left on this newspaper's website as fans fondly remember the man who led the club to promotion twice, and the 1985 Milk Cup.
They include fans telling of Mr Brown handing out free tickets to matches, and arranging for them to visit training sessions, with one even saying memories of him had inspired them to renew their season ticket this year.
"To hear that from fans is wonderful, because they are the people who make the game," he said.
"I'm quite a laid-back person, and don't usually think about history – I prefer to think of tomorrow – but these are all bringing memories back."
Mr Brown thanked his wife – "the best thing that ever happened to me" – for the book, and staff at Potters in Great Yarmouth for arranging its surprise presentation on Sunday night.
The couple will continue their celebrations in March, when they fly to Grenada to renew their wedding vows.
To read a selection of the tributes, go to www.edp24.co.uk and search Happy Birthday, Ken Brown.

Birthmarks have distinguished many famous faces throughout history, such as Soviet leader Gorbachov's forehead (a port-wine stain) and the corner of Cindy Crawford's mouth (a nevus). More than 80 percent of babies have some sort of birthmark - an area of discolored skin that is present at birth or shows up within a few weeks after birth. Most birthmarks fade in early childhood, but some remain throughout life or even grow larger and darker over time.
Doctors and scientists still don't understand precisely what causes birthmarks, but contrary to popular myth, they are not related to any trauma or stress experienced by the mother during pregnancy. The tendency to have birthmarks may be inherited and some marks may be similar to those on other family members, but most are not.
Birthmarks are categorized into two groups: vascular or pigmented. Vascular birthmarks are made up of malformed blood or lymph vessels just below the skin's surface, and are usually pink, red, or bluish in color and generally do not fade away. Approximately 10 in every 100 babies have vascular birthmarks. Pigmented birthmarks are made up of malformed pigment cells and are usually brown, gray, bluish, or black in color.
Most birthmarks are harmless; however, approximately 40,000 children are born each year with birthmarks that require specialized medical attention according to the Vascular Birthmarks Foundation, so you should have all your child's birthmarks checked out by a health care provider. Certain birthmarks are associated with vision problems and cancer; and others may impede eating, breathing, nerve function, and blood flow. In addition, large or very visible birthmarks can be psychologically damaging to a young child.
Birthmarks present in a variety of sizes, locations, shapes, and colors. The following are among the most common:
Vascular Birthmarks
Stork bites/Angel kisses/Salmon patches
These are the most common birthmarks. As many as 70 percent of babies have one or more of these blotchy pink or purple flat marks that are dilated capillary veins just under the skin's surface. They may increase in color when there's a change in temperature or the baby cries. Stork bites (so called because they were thought to arise where the proverbial stork carried the baby) are found on the back of the neck and usually last into adulthood. Angel kisses are usually found on the forehead or eyelids and many fade by age 2.
These raised, rough lesions affect approximately 10 percent of babies (more often in girls, preemies, and twins) and can be large and disfiguring, or small and almost unnoticeable. They occur mostly on the head and neck and can grow rapidly. They usually show up during the first six weeks after birth (only 30 percent are present at birth) and continue to grow for about a year. After a year they suddenly stop growing, turn white, and start shrinking - without treatment. This shrinking and fading process can take three to ten years. Twenty percent of babies who have hemangiomas have more than one. A common type of hemangioma is a strawberry hemangioma (so-called because its raised, red appearance resembles a strawberry), which affects about 2 to 5 percent of babies.

How do you feel about towns using the Department of Defense Surplus?
In recent weeks, Long Hill Township and Watchung Borough passed ordinances allowing their police departments to be able to apply for surplus equipment from the Department of Defense. Long Hill recently procured a Humvee to use in times of flooding, which Watchung states as the reason they are getting into the program. However, in cities around the country, police forces have used the program to obtain military gear, such as weapons and armor.

Police Offer Reward For Info. In Armed Robbery
PINK HILL - Pink Hill Police are offering a $1,000.00 reward for information leading to an arrest in an armed robbery case.
Police said 68-year-old Mary Wall was robbed at gunpoint outside her home in Pink Hill. She was approached by a man with a long gun in her driveway. He pointed the gun at her and demanded her purse.
The woman fell down while trying to avoid the man, and that's when he snatched the purse from under her and ran away.
Family thinks he came from behind the shed, where he may have been waiting to break into the home.
Wall had just returned home from her grandson's birthday party when the robbery happened.
"Everybody visited and she left to come home," Bonita Meeks, Wall's daughter, said. "I said call me when you get home and the next call we got was from the police department."
Chief Joey Thigpen said this serious of a crime is rare in the small town of Pink Hill.
"It's a quiet town," he said. "We do have some minor crimes, but this is up the scale. This is a serious crime.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Pink Hill Police Department.

ChicagoAncestors.org provides a great way to look at Chicago by address. But another interesting way to use the site is to browse by type of data, or "collection."
One of these collections is the Cushman Photographs Collection. ChicagoAncestors.org maps the location of 188 photographs taken in Chicago between 1943 and 1949 by photographer Charles Cushman. Each map point provides a link to an image in the Indiana University Archives, Digital Library Program, Charles W. Cushman Photograph Collection. The Indiana Cushman Collection website also includes some essays on Cushman's work, a brief biography and information about the collection itself. (Note ChicagoAncestors.org only maps Cushman's Chicago photographs).
Cushman's photographs of Chicago buildings certainly add to our knowledge of Chicago in the 1940's, but learning about the man and the background of his work in Chicago is also fascinating. On the new acquisition shelf, one can find a copy of The Day in Its Color: Charles Cushman's Photographic Journey Through a Vanishing America by Eric Sandweiss (Call number: TR140 .C87 S26 2011).
Charles Weever Cushman was born in Poseyville, Indiana in 1896. He was a descendant of physician Charles Weever, a Maine native who settled in Posey County, and Reuel and Elizabeth Cushman. Reuel Cushman was a Methodist circuit-rider who prided himself on his ties to Robert Cushman, an original Plymouth, Massachusetts settler. Eager to move beyond the county line, Charles headed to Indiana University in 1913. He went on to serve in the military and travel across the U.S., documenting the American landscape of his time.
The Day in its Color contains an interesting account of Cushman, providing personal details as well as insights into his work. Insights that will enhance your enjoyment of the digital images in the Cushman Collection. Stop by the Reference Desk and we'll be happy to point out this new acquisition.

I have loved pea gravel ever since we visited Europe 8 years ago. I love the sound that it makes under foot....I love the way that it feels in your hand....and I of course love how it looks.
all photos via here
Love it too - but be warned - at least in Ohio - the weeds will drive you absolutely insane.
Just sayin.
I'd take anything over my cracked concrete driveway, but it's too expensive to replace and our area only permits hard topped driveways :( I love it's sounds, too!ReplyDelete
It sounds and looks lovely Andrea!
I'm sure it will be lovely!
Can't wait to see yours!
Have a great week!
Deborah xoxo
I can't wait to see what you do with the pea gravel. I'm sure it will be amazing when you are done. Love your inspiration photos.
Je comprends votre ressenti... J'aime les repas pris à l'extérieur à l'ombre de beaux arbres... et comme vous le dîtes si bien avec le crissement des graviers qui roulent sous nos pas...
Gros bisous.
OOh...I like that. Very much, very much.ReplyDelete
Hi Andrea~ I have pea gravel in my backyard as part of my patio area. I love it and I love the look of it. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.
Have a great week
I especially love the inspational photos of the "outdoor dining". Looking forward to seeing your "reality" soon:)
I've never known it as pea gravel before. I like that name. We have a couple of areas in our garden that is gravelled and I love it. It's a break from hard pavers.ReplyDelete
I love pea gravel! I should put some in my new garden, but then I think it's difficult to stay if you have babies running...
Have a nice day
Love the gravel! Always wanted it too, just not sure if you have to do any snow shoveling.....ReplyDelete
Hi Andrea! Hope your week is going great! I grew up down in Miami with a pea gravel driveway, and I loved it. It was for the people who couldn't afford a concrete driveway. We also had terrazzo floors, which are floors with bits of stone in them. They were also the less expensive flooring back then, but now it's an upscale thing to put in, and they have quite extravagant designs.
Pea gravel is charming, rather rustic, and just looks fabulous. I know you'll love it!
I like it too.....so nice !!...love Ria...xxx..ReplyDelete
Good to see you posting
I'm a pea gravel fan as well. It crunches under foot like well baked cookies.
Oh, what beautiful inspiration photos!!~
I hope your able to get your pea gravel soon, I would love to see how it turns out!
Have a lovely day.
Love the photos...but I can only imagine what YOUR ideas will be like. :)
I've always loved pea gravel and how it transforms an ordinary setting into something fabulous. It works with every style, too, which I love.
New projects are always exciting...for me, it's like opening a new gift.
Looking forward to seeing you work your magic--again! :)
Hope you're enjoying your summer, Andrea. xo
I know what you mean, there is something about them! I had always dreamt of a gravel drive, and when we moved home two years ago, i was thrilled to find it had a gravel carriage drive! You do need to keep it topped up though else the weeds start to encroach (although easily pulled up!)and certainly not a good enough reason not to have one - enjoy!!!!ReplyDelete
I like the pea gravel too and I have hopes of using it here someday too!ReplyDelete
I'm a real fan of pea gravel as well! I love little paths made of it and keep wanting to use it outside our basement sliders, making a little patio just off the deck. I decided one day that I'd pick up a few bags and bring them home to get the project started - are you kidding? Those little bags weigh a ton! I decided to leave the bags where they were and save up to have the entire load delivered. Then I can make a million wheelbarrow trips to the backyard LOL! Hope you get your's done! Hugs,LeenaReplyDelete
I love the bistro set in the last picture!ReplyDelete
Do you mean that gravel is something typically European? I've never thought of it that way.
When I first saw this post I just had to laugh. You see I've been spending some time on Pintrest today looking for inspiration on just this subject. I currently have pea gravel paths in my flower garden which I love, love, love. The dog loves it too! I'm pretty sure this will be my next project once the weather isn't so hot!ReplyDelete
Hi Andrea: I really love pea gravel and have it in our garden. The trees drop leaves on it, but it is not too bad to rake up if you use a tiny plastic rake..Your's will be beautiful..Happy Wednesday..JudyReplyDelete
That is going to look fabulous in your yard, Andrea!! I'm jealous! lol! The husband won't have anything to do with pea gravel. Says it "shifts around too much". Whateverrrrr.....! lol! But I truly do love the look, feel, and sound, too! Have fun with your project! We're all waiting for the big reveal! :)
xoxo laurie
I have always wanted a pea gravel anything!! love the sound too!ReplyDelete
I love these photos....what a beautiful idea. You ARE always up to something amazing. I can't wait to see the finished product!!ReplyDelete
great inspiration photos. this is going to be beautiful. the perfect addition to your gorgeous home.ReplyDelete
Great photos. Pea gravel looks wonderful, my brother has an english gardens with pea gravel walkways. Gorgeous!ReplyDelete
Oh my gosh we just layed pea gravel in our front yard,I love it!!! I will post it soon,just waiting for my first garden (ever) to grow abit...love your inspiration photos! xoxoReplyDelete
Oh how lovely....it will be beautiful! Hope you are having an amazing Summer! xoxReplyDelete
haha, we are two peas in a pod. Good thing for patient husbands, right?? LOL! I'm glad you're having a fun summer Andrea :)
Have been browsing your photos, what a lovely touch you have and a great start to this lovely early morning...thanks!ReplyDelete
I have seen this used in gardens. I LOVE the idea.We don't have a patio of any kind right now.I have been doing some research on this and may do that eventually too.I love the look.And it is much cheaper than most methods.
I have thought the sweet pebbles would landscape nicely around raised beds... but I LOVE your idea!ReplyDelete
...I hope you get your gravel drive soon:-) I got mine last year and LOVE my tyres crunching up it at the end of a long day... weeding has been prolific with the constant deluge of rain in UK this summer! I'm dreaming of a porch, with nice old chairs where I'll watch the sun go down with a chilled glass of wine:-)xReplyDelete
Hello from your newest follower! I love your pea gravel idea. I've been wanting to make paths with that in my garden with a white picket fence. Of course, I still need to put up the white picket fence! (But first thing's first!)
I've been following for awhile (found you in a magazine -- Romantic Homes maybe?) but now that I have a blog I can do a better job at keeping up! If you get a chance, stop by and say hello!
Hey you...just checking in...hope everything is o.k and you are just busy making the world beautiful ...talk soon! XoxoReplyDelete
We did this in a garden in the city & LOVED it! I'm sure you will too!
~ Zuzu
Hi! It's been awhile, so thought I'd drop in to see how you are doing! Hope all is well with you and yours! Sending over some October greetings to you!
Hi Jessie, I just love your website, it is just lovely. Everything looks so clean and fresh. I've been following your site. I just opened my website called: babiesbridesandlavender.com.
Please stop by and take a look. Any comments are welcome, I would love to hear from you.

CORINTH – Victims in two separate Corinth shootings over the past five days are recovering from their wounds, with one suspect in custody and another sought by police.
Police are still searching for suspect Francisco Elizalde, a Hispanic male with no other description given, in the Saturday shooting of Jesus Perez, 28, of Norwood Street in Corinth, said Corinth Chief of Detectives Capt. Ralph Dance.
Perez was shot at his home about 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Dance said, and Elizalde was identified as the shooter, who drove away from the residence in a GMC Yukon vehicle, according to witnesses.
A shooting at Young and Proper Streets Monday evening wounded Andraea Stovall, 29, of Boyd Drive in Corinth, Dance said.
Stovall was reported to be recovering from a Tuesday surgery as of Wednesday morning, Dance said.
Bacarra Hill, 26, of Johns Street, Corinth, was arrested Tuesday morning in the shooting after turning himself in, Dance said. Bond was expected to be set Wednesday afternoon.
Both incidents remain under investigation.
Anyone with information about Elizalde's whereabouts is asked to call the Corinth Police Department at (662) 286-3377 or Crime Stoppers of Northeast Mississipi at (800) 773-8477.

Ack! A Facebook game review? What ARE we thinking? It appears that there is actually a reason to check out Dungeon Overlord and we have tons of reasons why. Keep reading!
I know what you are thinking: why in the hell are we reviewing social network games? As a virtual enthusiast myself, I feel your anger and your pain. I remember the days when the best entertainment a flash website could conjure was "Strip Snake", but as Dylan once sung "the-times-they-are-ah-changin'". Now we must suffer through the age of Facebook; the time of knowing exactly what everyone you have ever known is doing at any point; a time of being unable to shake those people you would rather forget from high school; and definitely a time when virtual cowboy hats, unthinkably boring farm simulators, and requesting "cabbage" from others is classified as "gaming" as well as social.

Division of Student Affairs: Frequently Asked Questions
About the University
Where does the University rank among other schools? U.S. News and World Report ranks the University of Portland among the West's top 10 regional universities, based on its excellent academic reputation, selectivity of admission, freshmen retention, student/faculty ratio, graduation rate and campus resources. It also is considered by the magazine to be one of the west's "best values" for providing an excellent education at a reasonable cost. The University of Portland ranked third nationally among master's institutions in a listing of top producers of Fullbright Awards for U.S. students in 2013-14. For the fifth consecutive year, University of Portland was the top Oregon school in the Kiplinger's Personal Finance annual rankings of best values in private colleges and universities.
How many students attend the University? Currently there are 3,654 undergraduates and 469 graduates enrolled at the University. Our 4,123 students come from 40 states and dozens of countries.
How much is tuition? Full-time undergraduate tuition for 2015-2016 is $40,080 per academic year; other fees may be assessed depending upon the student's major. Typical room and board is $11,654 per academic year.
What religious denomination is the University of Portland affiliated with? The University of Portland is Oregon's Catholic University. For more than a century it has been affiliated with the Congregation of Holy Cross, an order of Catholic priests and brothers that fosters the ideals of teaching, faith, and service to God and neighbor. About half of our students are Catholic. Students of all religious backgrounds are invited and encouraged to apply for admission to the University.
What is the University of Portland's Equal Opportunity and Non-Discrimination Policy? The University of Portland does not discriminate in its educational programs, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, athletic and other school-administered programs, or employment on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin, sex, disability, age, or sexual orientation. The University expressly reserves its rights and obligations to maintain its commitment to its Catholic identity and the doctrines of the Catholic Church.
The designated coordination point for University compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and for ADA is the Executive Vice President, in coordination with the University Health Center, Human Resources, and the Office for University Events.
Living on Campus
How do I get a room in one of the University's residence halls? The Office of Residence Life welcomes you to live on campus and join UP's active campus community. After you are admitted to the University, you will receive an enrollment confirmation form and information about completing a housing application. Return the enrollment confirmation form with a $400 deposit (due by post-marked May 1st) and submit the Online Housing Application by May 15th to secure your place in the class and residence halls.
How many students live on campus? About 60% of the University's students live on campus in one of ten residence halls or just off-campus in houses owned by the University. More than 97% percent of the University's freshmen live on campus each year. Freshmen are required to live on campus unless they are released from the requirement through petition to the Office of Residence Life.
How are roommates assigned? The Online Housing Application asks several questions designed to match roommates. It's not an exact science, but if you truthfully answer questions regarding your neatness tendencies, how introverted or extroverted you are, whether you're a "morning person" or a "night owl," what time you like to go to sleep and wake up, your interests, and your study habits, the Office of Residence Life should be able to assign you to a roommate with whom you'll get along.
Can I choose which residence hall I want to live in? The University has three all-female, three all-male, and two coed traditional residence halls, as well as two townhouse buildings for juniors and seniors. You can indicate whether you prefer to live in a single-sex or coed hall, and the Office of Residence Life will do our best to accommodate your request.
I'd like to live with a friend from high school. Can I choose my roommate? The University will honor your request to room with a specific person provided that both applicants request each other and turn in housing contracts at the same time.
Will I be safe on campus? The University of Portland is located in a quiet residential neighborhood - University Park - and it is one of the safest neighborhoods in Portland. The campus itself is patrolled 24 hours a day by several full-time officers. They patrol by car, bike, and foot, and also offer escort services between campus buildings and to nearby off-campus residences after dark. Students need to do their part, too, to deter crime by locking up valuables, keeping residence hall rooms locked when they are away, and reporting suspicious behavior to the Public Safety Department.
Student Activities and Resources
What extra-curricular activities are available? University of Portland students make sure to balance hard work with fun free time. Student activities abound on UP's campus; you would have to try hard not to find something fun going on! The University has an active student government called the Associated Students of the University of Portland (ASUP) and about 100 students are involved every year in positions ranging from student body president to residence hall senator. There are also more than 60 student clubs (like a bicycle club, biology honor society, a business fraternity, and la crosse and soccer clubs) and nearly three dozen volunteer opportunities (serving at soup kitchens, tutoring at nearby schools or in local jails, or providing hospitality to immigrant families).
What athletic programs are offered? Our 15 NCAA Division I intercollegiate athletic teams compete in the West Coast Conference. Our men's and women's soccer and cross country teams are national powers, and we also offer volleyball, baseball, men's and women's basketball, men's and women's indoor and outdoor track, men's and women's tennis, and women's rowing. An active intramural program offers several sports throughout the year. Students are able to swim, use weights and cardio equipment, take aerobics, yoga, or kickboxing classes, and play pick-up basketball and volleyball games in Howard Hall, the intramural gym. For more details see our Recreational Services website.
After College
Do you help place students in jobs after graduation? Our Office of Career Services is committed to helping students in their job search. Services that are offered include resume-writing and interviewing skills seminars, an email notification service of jobs in fields of interest, assistance locating internship opportunities, tests to assess interests and aspirations, and access to career and graduate school fairs. Students are welcome and encouraged to begin using career services as early as their freshman year and can continue working with the office as alumni. Students can also network, job shadow, and conduct informational interviews with alumni who work in their intended career fields by registering with the Career Advisory Network, a service provided by the University's alumni office and Student Alumni Association.
How successful are University of Portland students in finding full-time employment after graduation? A survey of one recent graduating class found that 94 percent of the students were employed full-time, attending graduate school, or serving in the military or in volunteer positions within six months of graduation.
Are there resources to help me find out about graduate school? Your advisor can help you prepare academically for graduate school, and the Office of Career Services can help you research schools with relevant academic programs. The Office of Career Services also can help you learn about appropriate tests you might need to take, register for graduate school fairs, and prepare admissions materials.
I'm interested in volunteering after I graduate. How can I find out about programs? Nearly two dozen of the University's graduates opt to pursue a volunteer position following graduation each year. Some programs can help students earn master's degrees or defer or waive some student loans. The Moreau Center for Service and Leadership sponsors a fair each year describing a variety of post-graduate volunteer opportunities include the Peace Corps, Jesuit Volunteer Corps, Holy Cross Associates, and AmeriCorps.

Don Gushurst was happy with his job and the place he worked, but because of the uncertain business climate, he wanted to give his resume a long overdue shot in the arm with an undergraduate degree.
He just could never find the time or the right program.
"Getting an undergraduate degree was a personal goal that I had previously set, but I could not find the time or the program to pursue," he said.
That's when he discovered the Adult Accelerated Programs at Benedictine University. Gushurst not only completed an undergraduate degree in business, he continued his education and earned a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree.
Now, he's ready to compete in the marketplace...should the need arise.
"My degrees remove a barrier," Gushurst said. "In today's competitive marketplace, your resume needs to make a difference. By completing my undergraduate degree and then adding an MBA, I feel I can compete better within my own organization if I wanted to pursue a new position."
Benedictine's MBA program has been preparing students for managerial roles in corporate and human service organizations for more than 40 years. Students gain superior, practical management skills, learn the best business practices, and gain a sense of personal and lifelong commitment to improving leadership.
"The classes were thought-provoking," Gushurst said. "They provided an opportunity for some of us to share our vast work experience as it related to the course content, and the study group environment made for an interesting balance of learning and people management. The teachers were excellent and I always felt that I earned my grades."
Many of Benedictine's instructors bring real-world experience to the classroom. One of them had a particularly profound effect on Gushurst.
"His class preparation and management demonstrated to me how an adult education course should be conducted," Gushurst said. "He was serious about his commitment, which impacted my class preparation in a positive manner. His teaching style, support and philosophy really affected me."
Motivated by this instructor, Gushurst embarked upon a parallel career.
"I learned that hard work eventually pays off, and the sacrifice to complete my undergraduate degree and then pursue my MBA has positioned me to enter an additional profession – academics," he said.
Gushurst joined the faculty in the Benedictine MBA program as a part-time instructor. He now shares his knowledge and years of corporate experience with others seeking to move up in the business world.
He credits the Adult Accelerated Programs at Benedictine for opening a whole new world of opportunity to him.
"Not every program can offer the type of flexibility or learning environment that Benedictine has developed," Gushurst said. "Benedictine removed 'perceived' obstacles that folks like me previously used as excuses for not completing or pursuing our education."

July 14 News and Notes
Robert Cleave
July 14 2011 03:06PM
Best wishes, Pete
The round-up returns in its new amalgamted form, as we examine a few items of interest for the Flames and Jets, as well as some of the notable news bits from around the league. In this instalment, the Flames lose their voice, Winnipeg continues to add to their coaching corps, and a former Flame favourite hits a roadblock.
The primary news of interest today isn't on the ice, of course, as Peter Loubardias has apparently been relieved of his duties as Calgary's TV PBP man. I'll confess that Loubo wasn't exactly my favourite announcer, and I could have done without his signature goal call (He Skeeeeeeyores!), but I never had any serious ill will towards the guy, and as a middle-aged gent myself, I never wish unemployment on a contemporary unless there's clear evidence he's an actual evil-doer. Loubo's just lost one of the best jobs in hockey television, so I'll absent myself from the piling-on and simply wish him well in the future.
Beyond that, and for whatever I might have thought of him in his role as the Flames' play-by-play announcer, I'm completely sincere in my hope for him to be involved with the CHL in some fashion. His affection for that level of the game was blatantly obvious to anyone listening, and my sense is if he was under the influence of sodium pentothal, he'd confess it was his true joy.
As for the team itself, other than a bunch of moves to sign every free agent AHL defenceman extant and this morning's acquisition of a marginally talented tough guy , there isn't much in the way of worthwhile personnel activity around the club. Behind the scenes, Kent noted a Forbes interview with Chris Snow the other day, and the Flames' addition of him to their backroom staff hints at a change in the club's approach to scouting and analysis.
I suppose the other positive aspect beyond any improvement in the Flames' pre-scouting is that the bigfoot media types that have spent years acting as if this stuff has no value might well have to change their tune. There's nothing like team validation to make your average reporter suddenly realize the merits of more modern analysis.
One of the city's favourite sons might be a candidate to spend next year in back of the Jet bench, as Ken Wiebe reports that Mike Keane could be added as an assistant to Claude Noel. He's certainly a True North guy right to the core, so I wouldn't be that surprised if it were to occur.
Charlie Huddy is already in place on the staff, and I'm fully in favour. Huddy has a good track record of working with young defenders, and players like Bogosian and Byfuglien will almost certainly benefit from his tutelage.
Bogosian, of course, is still out of contract, although his agent advised Ed Tait that they expected matters to be settled in due course. I'm not all that sure about what a proper ticket for him would be. I suspect that he'd likely want something in the 3M range, and although I don't doubt he's a player with significant potential, his play doesn't quite rate that sort of expenditure. A two year bridge contract in the range of 2.5M might be about right, and Erik Johnson's second contract might be the best comparable in terms of performance and potential being balanced.
On the AHL front, the organization has tabbed Keith McCambridge to run the ship in St. John's. It should be noted that the last four head coaches working for True North used that job to catapult themselves into NHL head coaching positions, so McCambridge might well have a bit of history working for him down the line.
Business-wise, Bruce Dowbiggin's story in the Globe and Mail hints that the Jets are still working out the details of their TV and radio rights, although from my POV, as long as the games are on somewhere and the team gets a nice pile of cash, there's not much to choose between SN and TSN. There's no mention of PPV, either, which is likely a good thing in terms of fan access.
Columbus has spent the summer attempting to bolster their roster in order to get out of the Western Conference's group of also-rans, but they got some lousy news yesterday in the form of Kristian Huselius' torn pectoral muscle. Surgery today was deemed a success , but the 4-6 month recovery time leaves the Jackets down a top-six winger. I do hope Scott Howson has Jay Feaster's phone number, since the Flames might well have a fellow Scandinavian port-sider available for hire.
There's been plenty of chat regarding the status of Steven Stamkos, but a story that's stayed below the radar is the inability, thus far at least, of the Kings to finalize a contract with Drew Doughty. Don Meehan's statement that the two sides hadn't done anything on a contract since June 23rd seems a bit odd, since you might think that securing your franchise defenceman might be a priority for a club. Of course, it's possible that Lombardi has been preoccupied with extracting a pound of flesh from Steve Tambellini, so maybe he's just not a multi-tasker ;-)
While the wholesale free-agency adds in Florida dominated July 1st coverage, Dallas was nearly as busy in terms of adding players. The Stars signed six UFAs to fill the roster with the most notable being Michael Ryder. I'm not quite as sold as Joe Nieuwendyk on the quality of his signings, and Sheldon Souray in particular might disappoint. A player said to be too slow to play well in the AHL isn't likely to help a club in the bigs, and that was the word regarding Souray last season.
Speaking of the Panthers, George Richards features a lengthy conversation with Erik Gudbranson, covering off several topics, including his disappointment at being sent back to junior last fall. He still doesn't have a contract signed, although absent a Tim Erixon situation, he should get inked. Still, if I were Dale Tallon, I'd ask him if he was a Rangers' fans growing up, just to be safe.
Dirk Hoag of On the Forcheck attended last night's Skate of the Union in Nashville, and the primary news from the event was David Poile's comment that he expected Alexander Radulov to end his self-imposed exile in Russia and return to the Predators in 2012/13. If the winger were to resume his NHL career, that might just be the offensive boost the franchise needs to move into the upper echelon of clubs for an extended period.
It appears Shane O'Brien found a home for himself, joining the Avalanche on a deal paying just over a million dollars for next year. On a personal level, Colorado has three trips a year to Vancouver, so at least the poor bugger will get a few nights in his preferred hangout. As a competitive matter, I can't imagine what could ever go wrong with adding a player that takes a ton of demented penalties to a team that finished 30th on the PK last year. Heckuva job, Greg Sherman.
Oh, you Coyotes:
Finally this week, the interminable search for a Coyotes owner continues, but Matt Hulsizer has decided that maybe the Blues might be more his speed. Mayor Scruggs sounds a bit sad to see Hulsizer go, and maybe that's sensible, odd as it might appear at first blush. The next potential Coyotes' owner might want even more favourable terms, which will mean an even larger outlay by Glendale city council.
A point worth remembering is that the next Glendale council elections are in 2012, which might serve the purpose of concentrating a few minds down there, and anyone that watched any of the council meetings over the last couple of years would agree that those minds could definitely use a bit of concentrating.
That's all for this outing. If there's anything you might have noticed that rates a mention, feel free to link it in comments.
July 14 2011, 08:23PM
Speak for yourself. I, for one, shall not miss Loubardias for a second. The only thing that could spoil this is if Millions gets to do play by play again - he's worse than Loubardias.
NO LOUBO????? Some kinda shocker!
July 14 2011, 03:38PM
I really hope that the Jets games make it all the way out here in Alberta. I need to be able to catch the games on a semi-regular basis!
Wow, I'm surprised Luobo was fired, I assumed since SN still broadcasted alot of CHL games that they might just move him. Either way, I'd prefer a PBP that wasn't such a homer. Just call the games...
The flames recent personnel decisions are certainly puzzling. Each have their own merit as a standalone transaction, except P3L, but when they are all combined they just seem like a last ditch effort, kind of a hail mary approach to finding talent.
As for the Jet's TV rights it will be really interest what SN does. They don't have any room on SN west as it is with the flames and oilers games, unless they all go on the SN One channel? It will be interesting for sure, my guess in CBC gets the first saturday night game and then everygame against the leafs.
How does Loubo lose his job over drawn out symbols and Simpsonsesque catch phrases (lol @schevvy) while Millions, late of the c-bomb on live TV, still has a job? Justice!
It appears that Domebeers' wish finally came true. Now who is DB going to complain about firing?
July 14 2011, 04:39PM
Charlie Simmer, I assume.
On Doughty - Im surprised no one has taken a run at him with an offer sheet. He's a heavy hitter already.
July 14 2011, 05:47PM
I'm gonna miss Loubo. Voice was grating as hell, but he had so much spunk. From reposts of various Sportsnet personalities' tweets (Boomer, IIRC), it seems that Loubo was fired, at least partially, due to his Internet enemies. I presume this means that Domebeers is responsible.
July 14 2011, 05:56PM
I can't imagine SNET was cowed by the intermittent rantings of Domebeers (no matter how funny they were).
What kind of garbage is this. Loubo being fired? Why oh why do companies feel the need to change a good thing. The internet lunkheads will complain about WHOEVER is in that chair so their blogosperes are meaningless. The last year has not been kind to our sports media. Once Mike Richards abandoned ship, the street cred went down. I like the 960 crew and listen all the time but they are not in the same league as Richards as entertainers. Luobo is a guy who's a homer (which is exactly what regional broadcasts need. See TSN for how NOT to call a hockey game) and does a darn fine job. Now we've got Feaster doing lord knows what with the Flames (we're not any better, that's for sure). Aaargh! At least they all respect the Captain. We'll miss Luobo's 'Aaa-Gin-LA'.
I'm sorry to hear that Loubo lost his job. I hate to hear about anyone losing their job as there are always personal and family concerns that people forget about (especially in sports when everyone seems to want to fire at the first difference of opinion).
Good luck Loubo and hope you find a better opportunity in the future.
It wouldn't surprise me to see loubo be on TSN for next season.
July 15 2011, 09:33AM
Too bad about Loubo really great guy to talk Junior hockey with. He really loves the game and was very approachable at junior rinks
Doughty/Stamkos: You'd have to commit a ton of money for a long time. He's a world-class talent, but I would be concerned about that cap hit for the next 6-9 years.
Doughty & Stamkos would be beyond the Flames' price range. We could make it work, but would it be worth it?
My preference would still be Bogosian. Comparable player to Doughty when he was drafted, faced some tough minutes in ATL, and wouldn't command the same type of salary. I would offer-sheet Bogosian at 4mill * 5yrs. You would be overpaying slightly, but he's a 20-year old D man that can already play a top-4 role and be effective. We desperately need top-4 talent, we desperately need youth, and we desperately need to make smart cap decisions. He may not reach elite star-status like Doughty, but you won't have to pay 8+ million for him a year. Capitalize on the Jet's financial restrictions as a budget team and go hard after Bogosian.
As for Loubo: he wasn't my favorite either. But it's tough to see the guy get canned, as such a knowledgeable guy; so passionate and genuinely excited about what he does. TSN is the NYR of media, so they'll jump in and scoop him up to do the prospect reports on the Panel or something. As we've seen with Pierre McGuire, TSN isn't afraid to bring in polarizing characters. I can't see Loubo getting another NHL play-by-play gig, but he's a strong asset with his understanding and knowledge of the game. My bet is he re-surfaces as a mainstay with the giant that is TSN
July 15 2011, 11:58AM
The executives at sportsnet, Domebeer-aholics. Who knew?
On Simmer. Let me get cynical here. He is bad, we all know that. He came over from calling colour on PHX broadcasts, so he speaks to an audience who is somewhat new to hockey. Which, when you think of all the 04 fans, might not be such a bad thing!
Seriously though, I can't imagine they keep him on, but I never imagined they would fire Loubardias either, so who knows.
July 15 2011, 11:59AM
And Loubardias should start his own scouting firm. Seems pretty obvious to me. Who knows whether NHL execs are as impressed with his knowledge of junior hockey as some other people, though.

By GARY ARRINGTONSports Writer
Last Friday night the Emery High football team played a game that was a hot topic all over Utah and all over the country as they traveled to Roosevelt and played the now famous Union Cougars. The Union team made the news when the entire team was suspended the previous weekend for lack of character by the players. The team had to perform community service, family service and character education before being allowed to take the field again. The media was there.
Despite the distractions though, the Emery Spartans showed up to play and defeated the host team on their homecoming night 41-21 as the Spartans played with a fire and determination that had been lacking the past several games. Emery, a team that has overcome their own issues this season, played the game the way it is supposed to be played, as a team and with energy.
Emery scored touchdowns the first three times they had the ball and limited the Cougars to a single touchdown in the first half to lead at the half 21-7.
After forcing Union to punt in their opening series after their failure to pick-up a first down, Emery marched down the field 77 yards in 14 plays and scored on a 1-yard run by Marco Mota.
Union then had their only sustained drive of the game in their next possession and tied the score at 7-7. This drive started at the 50-yard line and Union scored after eight plays. The Cougars only managed 11 yards of offense the rest of the half. Emery scored twice more in the first half. The first came after a 65-yard drive and ended on a 1-yard run by Matt Mecham. The second came after a 55 yard drive and ended with Mota scoring again, this time after an 11-yard run.
Emery faltered starting the second half. The Spartans received the opening kick-off and for the first and only time, as it turns out, had to punt. Unfortunately, the punt was blocked and the Cougars had the ball at the Emery four yard line. They scored. This was not the way Emery wanted to start the half.
Emery on their next series, picked up 28 yards on three carries only to fumble the ball away. Emery's defense rose to the occasion and held the Cougars out of the end zone and the Spartans got the ball for the third time of the half. This time Emery scored on a 60-yard run by Mota and the Spartans were feeling better.
Disaster struck again though, the Cougars ran the ensuing kick-off back for a touchdown and Emery found their lead back to seven points at 28-21.
Emery's defense held Union the rest of the game to just a few yards while the Spartans added two more scores.
Ryan Cox scored on a 1-yard run and then Mota added his fourth touchdown of the night, this time on a 3-yard run.
Mota, seeing his first action in four weeks, gained 189 yards on 26 carries in the game and also caught three passes for 59 yards. Cox ran the ball 22 times and gained 151 yards on the ground and caught a pass for 4 yards. Mecham ran the ball 14 times for 68 yards.
Gavin McDermott, a wide receiver for the Spartans, had a reception in the first half that would make most highlight films.
On a third and seven at the Emery 38-yard line, a pass was thrown toward McDermott that the Emery sideline thought was way over thrown. As the ball got close, McDermott reached out with one hand and hauled it in and the Spartans gained 47 yards on the play and kept the Emery momentum going.
While gaining more than 500 yards of offense, the Spartans were equally dominant on defense.
Emery held Union to 61 yards in the first half and 60 yards in the second half and never got anything really going.
Emery is back on the road for their next game as they will travel to Grantsville this Friday night in another tough region contest.

"These shoes look great at the store and are comfortable enough, however I have worn them twice now and they have ripped in the same place on each shoe. I'm not especially rough on shoes or anything, they are just poor quality. I'd hate to see how they would look after more than two wears, so these are going back!"
