The Department of English at Trevecca Nazarene University teaches students to view literature from all eras through a biblical framework, to put forth and defend complex arguments, and to write and speak gracefully and with authority. Classes are challenging and energetic, and students leave the program equipped not only to teach but to pursue graduate study (our students have recently accepted significant fellowships at Baylor University, University of Arkansas, University of Texas El Paso, and Oklahoma State University), to take up careers as journalists and writers, to enter the nonprofit sector, and to join the world of business. Most important, students leave the English department able to elucidate and defend a biblical worldview, their faith strengthened rather than weakened.
A course of study in the English department combines a wide range of course offerings with a good deal of curricular flexibility. Students read both canonical and contemporary writers--Shakespeare and C. S. Lewis, Spenser and John Gardner, Faulkner and Ian McEwan--and study with an active, friendly faculty awake to the newest trends in the discipline. In addition to the English major, students may choose minors in English and creative writing, and interested undergraduates may serve on the staff of The Cumberland River Review, Trevecca's national literary journal.
We're excited about what's happening in the English department and hope for the opportunity to speak with you and answer any questions you may have. Please give us a call, send an email, or stop by for a visit. We look forward to meeting you.

What Our Students Say
"I think my interest in writing has always been with me, but in the English department that interest was nurtured and became a passion. TNU English prepared me not only to succeed at the graduate level and in the workplace, but to be kind and generous while doing so."
Diana Reaves ('09)
Master of Fine Arts candidate in poetry writing, University of Arkansas
"I came to Trevecca unsure of my abilities or what I wanted to do in life. Thanks to the English department, I now have the skills necessary to excel in graduate school and in my life beyond."
Todd Osborne ('12)
Master of Fine Arts candidate in poetry writing, Oklahoma State University
"With high performance standards and professors devoted to student development, the TNU English program prepares a student for immediate employment in their desired field. I have benefited from the Trevecca English department and from the instruction given by its Christ-loving professors."
Virginia Hensley ('12)
Editorial Assistant, Hachette Book Group, Brentwood, Tennessee
"Trevecca's English department provides rigorous classes, a well-rounded survey of literature and theory, small class sizes that better facilitate in-depth discussion, and opportunities to engage in further research and presentation outside of the classroom. Beyond this, the department welcomes its students' thoughts, opinions, and literary discoveries, while also valuing its students' individual educational needs, interests, and futures."
Jalaine Lindsley ('11)
Master of Arts candidate in English and American Literature, University of Texas at El Paso
"I am so thankful for the education I received in the Trevecca English department. My professors not only taught me how to analyze literature but how to live in the grace of Christ Jesus."
Tamra Reaves ('11)
English Teacher, Lafayette Christian School
Visiting Writers/Scholars Series
Each spring, the Department of English hosts Trevecca's annual Visiting Writers/Scholars Series, an event featuring creative writers and scholars of national reputation. Visiting writers present a campus-wide reading and question-and-answer session, meet privately with English and creative writing students, lead writing workshops, deliver craft talks, and inspire our students. Previous guests have included Bobby C. Rogers, winner of the Agnes Lynch Starrett Poetry Prize, Mark Jarman, winner of the Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize, and Louis Markos, a nationally recognized C. S. Lewis scholar.
Research Handbook
The Trevecca English Department Research Handbook is meant to assist students in the composition of scholarly essays. Trevecca professors are eager to assist if additional consultation is necessary.

Marie C. SalerniFebruary 12,2013
Marie C. SalerniMarie C. Salerni
Marie C. Salerni, 87, of Rutland, died February 9, 2013, at her home.
Marie, a dedicated family woman, is best remembered for spending countless patient hours with her grandchildren. What she taught them cannot be measured and it continues to grow. A self-educated naturalist, she took great delight in the nature of the smallest and most delicate. She loved the flowers and birds, but it was the humming birds, the chickadees and the fragile wild flowers she found on the forest floor that brought her the most joy. Whether it was stopping on the roadside to pick berries or having the occasional cigarette with a dear friend, she never missed the value of the simple moments. Wendy, she loved you like a sister. You cannot know the comfort your selfless friendship provided her.
Maries final passage was eased by many gentle souls. To Lois and Cathy, the many tasks you performed at all hours day and night gave her great comfort. To Chad and Shirley, thanks for being there. Rev. Dodson, your prayers had a remarkable effect on her. Dr. McCormick, the nurses and aides of hospice, thank you, all.
Private services will be held at the convenience of the family.MORE IN Obituaries0919 RH Obits Butler paid no photo no flag Full Story0919 RH Obits Reed edited photo no flag Full Story0919 RH Obits Turner rites no photo no flag Full Story

International Gold Award
Creative distribution brings solar power to East Africa's rural poor
With the audacious goal of eliminating the kerosene lamp from Africa by 2020, Solar Aid's sales teams work with schools in rural areas to promote good quality, affordable lights to families. With over 400,000 lamps sold since 2010, the organisation is now the largest distributer of solar lights in Africa.
The immediate benefits are immeasurable: children are able to study in the evening, polluting and dangerous kerosene is avoided, and families save money. And by using competitive procurement, SolarAid is helping raise standards across the industry.

Azuri Technologies
Zennstrom Philanthropies Ashden Award for Innovation
Pay-as-you-go solar for Kenyan homes
Small solar home systems bring good quality light and phone-charging to off-grid households and save them money. Yet their upfront costs render them out of reach for the people who would benefit most. UK-based startup Azuri has developed a pay-as-you-go interface which allows households to pay for solar as they use it with scratchcards, avoiding the need for microfinance.
Increasing numbers of homes in Kenya and elsewhere are now using Azuri's 'Indigo Duo' starter solar-home-systems which provide two lights and phone charging. Once they have paid for their starter system, Azuri's customers then have the opportunity to upgrade to larger systems, allowing them to progressively climb their way out of poverty.

Impact Carbon
Citi Ashden Award for Financial Innovation
Catalysing the growth of the East African stove market
Across the developing world, small businesses are selling life-saving technologies like cleaner cookstoves that reduce indoor air pollution. Many of them need help to achieve their potential. Impact Carbon works with stove and water filter enterprises across East Africa, China and elsewhere to access carbon finance, then uses the money to work intensely with them to help them build their businesses and help make the stoves more affordable for the people who want to buy them.
Uganda is Impact Carbon's biggest market, where the five stove businesses it works with have dramatically increased sales and capacity: for example, the country's biggest stove manufacturer has increased sales from 200 a month in 2007 to more than 10,000 a month in 2013.

Waterloo Foundation Ashden Award for Avoided Deforestation
Grass-roots cookstoves project protects forests and helps families
Rapid deforestation in the Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo is threatening its fragile ecosystem and over half the world's population of highly endangered mountain gorillas. Meanwhile, for Goma's burgeoning population, spending a high proportion of their income on illegally plundered charcoal makes climbing out of poverty an impossible dream.
WWF is training local businesses to build and sell cheap, culturally appropriate stoves that halve the amount of charcoal needed, so helping protect the sensitive forest environment. It's also helping landowners start sustainable tree plantations for charcoal, to help meet Goma's needs. So far 45,000 stoves have been sold.

Cookswell Jikos
A 'seed to ash' approach to cleaner cookstoves
The late Dr Maxwell Kinyanjui was a pioneer in improving the sustainability of charcoal in Kenya, developing the charcoal-saving Kenya Ceramic Jiko and other technologies, and promoting commercial reforestation and efficient charcoal production. As such, the Kenyan business is unique in its 'seed to ash' approach to cookstoves which takes into account the entire lifecycle of wood.
Dr Kinyanjui's family continue to take his ideas forward. While startup business Cookswell Jikos sells jikos, charcoal ovens, and small charcoal kilns,its partner the Woodlands Trust is responsible for developing new plantations.
MicroEnergy Credits
Helping microfinance providers finance clean energy products
Lack of finance can be a major stumbling block for people in developing countries who want to buy renewable energy products, with even the cheapest solar lanterns out of reach for many. The US business MicroEnergy Credits (MEC) is a business that helps microfinance institutions promote and provide loans for these products. As well as supporting microfinance lenders to put their programmes in place it helps them access carbon finance.
So far MEC has supported microfinance providers to sell more than 180,000 renewable energy products, including stoves and solar homes systems. Its largest programme is with XacBank in Mongolia.
OMC Power
Sustainable power for the telecoms industry and surrounding villages
In rural India, only half the population has access to grid power. But running a mobile network is often costly and polluting. OMC has pioneered the use of solar-diesel hybrid plants to power telecom towers, and also rents electricity services to communities in surrounding villages.
Telecom companies welcome the chance to use reliable power from more renewable sources, while villagers enjoy using clean, bright lanterns with mobile chargers and portable 'powerboxes' that are brought daily to their doors. With large areas of rural India likely to remain off-grid and hungry for mobile telecoms there are huge prospects for expansion.

It would be nice if the Guide would show the favorite status of each channel and let me change it right in the guide. By the time I navigate through the settings, I sometimes forget the channel I was on. Each channel would just show a small 1, 2, both, or none. Then, a button press could turn on or off the 1 or 2 indicator. Not a big issue, but it would make it so much easier to set up my favorites.
I'm sorry, but navagate through what settings?
If you are in the Guide, you are already in the Full Guide, Favorites 1, or Favorites 2 Mode, so the only time this would ever even apply is if you are in the Full Guide. If you are in the Full Guide, just hit either the OK or FiOS TV button to view the channel of interest. Now, while viewing the channel, hit the Options button, scroll down to the Favorites entry in the list and hit the Right Arrow. At that point you are given the options to add the channel to or remove the channel from either Favorites list.
This function has nothing to do with the Guide, you can be watching any channel at any time and add it to a Favorites list or remove it from a Favorites list using the Options button.
Easy as pie.....
Wow, I had no idea about that. I guess I need to spend more time exploring the menus and buttons and such.
Previously, I always pressed Menu/Settings/Favorites/... to manage the favorites. Now I can do it easily.

Government employees protect and serve our nation. To honor these workers and their service, May 5-11 has been designated as Public Service Recognition Week.
If you checked the weather forecast before going outside this morning, thank the federal employees at the National Weather Service who alert us to impending storms. If your child played with a toy today, thank the federal employees at the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission who administer our toy safety standards. If you travel to a national park this summer, thank the park rangers who help families create lifetime memories.
No travel plans? Here's something you can do from your own front door: If you received your mail today, thank the U.S. Postal Service carrier who delivered it. Was the food you bought at the grocery store safe? Thank Department of Agriculture food inspectors. The medication you take is safe because of the Food and Drug Adminisration. And how about that flu shot that you got courtesy of the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention?
Our borders are secure because of Homeland Security. Our airways are safe because of the TSA. Planes take off in an orderly fashion because of air-traffic controllers. Farmers have the latest technology to produce our food through the USDA. Health and Human Services makes sure we get the healthcare we need. The FBI protects us from criminals. The Secret Service protects our president and our monetary system. The IRS collects money to run our government. The FDIC protects our deposits should a bank fail. The Department of Education helps educate our children. Social Security helps seniors get their retirement checks on time, and Medicare provides them with healthcare.
I think you get the picture.
I hope that people appreciate all that federal employees do to make America safe, secure and the best country in the world.
Kim Newlin, National Active and Retired Federal Employees, Chapter 1405, Miami

The Sparks Police Department is looking into a report of an attempted child luring.
A 15-year old girl says she was walking on Sullivan Lane on Friday morning when the driver of a 4-door SUV-type vehicle (possibly a GMC) with Nevada license plates asked her if he could give her a ride. The girl says she ignored him and walked away.
Police say the driver followed her and stopped in front of the girl before getting out of his vehicle. He asked her again if he could give her a ride. Once again, the girl did not respond and she went into a gated apartment complex. The driver then left the area.
Police say the driver was a black man between 30 and 40-years old, around 6'0" tall and weighing 160-170 lbs. He had collar-length hair in corn rows, and the girl said he spoke with a slight southern accent.
If you know anything about the suspect, you're being urged to call Sparks Police Detectives at (775) 353-2225 or Secret Witness at (775) 322-4900. You can also text your tip to 847-411.

We finally realized that we only had two small pieces of furniture and a few boxes so we recently closed our account. It was a great relief to use your storage space after flooding in our basement. ThanksEdmund from Princeton, NJ

Yvonne and Sue were incredibly helpful! I've never rented storage space before, but Sue walked me through what I would need, explained the security and layout of the facility, and showed me the space that I eventually ended up renting. Yvonne was very helpful in the days leading up to the actual move---she helped arrange the moving truck and set me up with a lock and packing tape at the last minute. Both were very nice, very helpful, and very professional.Cole from Spencer, NY

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 235 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5 by DWill04 Negative start to what I thought would be a great family get away. Where do I begin? I thought I would have a great family get away with the wife and kids, but now this hotel will never see us again. Being a Platinum member, I used points and upgrade requests to reserve two rooms for my family and our friends. Check in was fine. I wanted the kids to have a little something in the lounge before dinner, yet we were basically shown the door because they only would honor one room for access. Then at 8 PM, we receive a call to try to keep the noise down, are you kidding. Then I get a call from a person that doesn't even work here, who threatens me and my family. Why he has my room number, I don't know. Lastly management now calls at 8:40 again talking about noise, this has to be a joke, right? I tell her it's 8:40, and I don't appreciate the threats from random people, but she doesn't acknowledge. I now tell her I'll do what I can. I can't wait to check out of this hotel. What a waste of points and suite night rewards. What a way to treat my family and my friends to a nice get away. Do not Recommend. January 25, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Helen8700 Nighttime noise I truly did enjoy my stay. Your facilities were "a step above" other hotels we had encountered. We did enjoy our stay. Although, at 11pm our neighboring room quests returned, and we're quite loud (laughing, talking loudly). I called the front desk, and it rang about twenty times. I called again about 12am, the staff stated that he would send security. It wasn't until 2:30am did they quiet down. I had to leave at 7:30am for the airport. Needless to say I didn't get much sleep. August 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mcottle Always a great stay I always have a great stay at the Sheraton La Jolla. It's convenient location is great for North San Diego businesses, La Jolla restaurants and UCSD. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. If you are able to use the Lounge, the breakfast is quite good and the gym is very well appointed although a bit cramped if there are a few people in there. August 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by DJS74 Terrific service I was traveling for work in the San Diego area and was fortunate enough to stay at the Sheraton La Jolla hotel. The staff responsiveness was some of the best I have ever experienced, as when I misplaced my work briefcase at the hotel, I was distraught. However, after calling Linda at the front desk and her calming me down, then having her offer to look everywhere for it and then have her staff scour the premises for my bag...they miraculously found it!! Everything in my bag was in tact and fine...which saved my day! Thank you so much for all you do and for your care and service!!! Based on this experience, I will be back. July 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MartyVonM Paradise This hotel is a gem in La Jolla. I was sorry my business trip was so brief--one night only--as the grounds were so beautiful, and the room so comfortable. I highly recommend this property. August 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ubtraveler1 Wonderful, as usual! I stay here regularly for business and always have a wonderful experience! I am looking forward to my next stay in September. August 16, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by FrequentTraveller22 Noisy Room The hotel was what I expected with exception to the noise in the room and the bathroom size. The noise from the air conditioner was extremely loud and there was a dripping sound in the walls that was constant. Also, the bathroom was extremely small and the door was so close to the shower and toilet that it was difficult to move around without having to shut the door. Also, the bed was so close to the wall that you could only get into/out of the bed from one side making it difficult to sleep with two people. September 12, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Claud4 Friendly, accommodating staff Nice, comfortable and reasonable hotel. Nice pool area and great for families. July 14, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by farahani This hotel was not to my expectations. I think this hotel is not in Sheraton standards , bathrooms were not clean, the hallway was not clean, the staff were not aware of my original late check out request , the cooling system was making too much noise to the point that my little son keep waking up at night , overall it was not to my expectations. August 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by flash96 Very Comfortable Facilities were extremely comfortable, clean, well kept, the staff was helpful and friendly. July 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nick700xx Great hotel, excellent staff. This hotel is very clean and well maintained. The grounds are attractive with a relaxing atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There are plenty of food choices within walking distance including the hotel's restaurant and bar - which are both very good. My one complaint would be the extra fee for parking. In my opinion this should be waived for SPG members and/or those with club access. September 15, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by llww Beautiful rooms and courtyard, but... In my reservation request, I asked for a quiet room away from pool, elevators, vending and ice. The check-in person proudly informed me that they had a room for me overlooking the pool. She was so crestfallen when I told her I didn't want to be near the pool, that we took it anyway. The room actually had a view of the koi pond, a little away from the pool. The first night was very quiet, but the second night included children running and yelling in the courtyard after 9pm and before 8am the next day. On looking out the window at the beautiful courtyard in the morning, 6 different dogs were out on leashes "doing their business". The courtyard is absolutely beautiful, but don't step on the grass. The room was very clean, comfortable and beautiful. We had a pleasant time in the hotel bar, breakfast in the restaurant was fast and adequate. This hotel is near my family member's home but I will not stay here again. Expensive, noisy. August 15, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by BH90212 Second Stay- Last Chance I stayed at this hotel about 2 years ago and after my few night stay i mentioned to the front desk (first night and second night) that there were a few spiders in my room. I assumed because it was on the first floor and the hotel was old there was nothing that could be done. I left the hotel and checked into another one. This past weekend i stayed at this hotel again and gave it a second shot. While i didnt see any spiders or bugs (was in building 6 on second floor) i woke up with two large bites on my body which were spider bites- go figure. Housekeeping the first night (had 2 rooms) decided that they would forget to leave me towels in the room after they removed all the other ones. i got out of the shower and low and behold NO TOWELS - i called the front desk and asked that they bring some up when i left for a wedding - they brought up about 20 towels for each room - i asked for 4 total. needless to say this will be my last stay at Sheraton La Jolla- August 14, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by LaJollavisitor Dependable room and service We have stayed at this hotel many times and we always have a nice, clean, spacious room. Paul, at the Front Desk, is friendly and helpful and always remembers us from previous visits. The restaurant and bar staff are friendly and professional. Proximity to the beaches, to restaurants and freeways makes it a good, central location. May 23, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by DK29 This hotel is service oriented! We are gold members. That has not meant much in the recent past. This hotel changed that opinion. After we checked in and got to our room the staff called to see if we needed anything. Their attention to good service was wonderful. The workout facility was state-of-the-art. The food at Humphrey's was delicious and well-prepared. May 26, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mylove1712 The hotel is very nice and clean :D When we arrived at the front of the hotel in La Jolla Village Drive, im a little bit disappointed because the hotel is low rise and it looks old outside, and it seems no one will took care of the trees and plants. But when we get inside,I'm so amazed! The staff are nice and the hotel is so clean ,it looks new to me. March 5, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Michael35 Worst experience in a long time I'm a platinum guest with over 85 nights this year. I was put in a room on a ground floor that smelled of mold/. The room was also too loud (by a major road). Despite my complaint, I was told that there was a room for me on the higher exec level. Instead they put me in a tired old room. September 9, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by TMarch25 I Would Never Stay Here Again The location is 15min away from the main part of La Jolla so it's necessary to rent a car unless you want to pay $15 on cabs each way during your stay. The carpeting in the UPGRADED Starwoods Preferred area stinks and looks filthy. The staff was slow and unresponsive. The overall look and feel of the hotel was completely unsatisfactory and I would never stay here again. August 6, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by TravelLady1119 Not up to expectations Room was too small for an extended stay. Bathroom so small cannot close door while on commode. Checked out after one night. Have since had 90 nights in another La Jolla hotel. Do not recommend. Would never stay here again. August 8, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by tspike Cooling system needs improvment The colling system was noisy and did not keep the room an even temperature. It would run several times during the night, waking us each time and then shortly after it would shut off the room would become uncomfortablly warm. August 11, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by BOSSBOSSBOSS Staff was uncorteous I've stayed at many SPG properties. This was my worst stay, due to staff being very inconsiderate! Staying in the club building it was a journey to get there, and realize my key did not work. I drove all the way to the front which takes at least 5 - 10 minutes and the front desk attendant and manager emphasized i needed to be out of the room right at 4 PM which it was already. I asked for a few extra minutes due to the discrepancy with the key card not working, yet they told me that i will be charged for half the day. This was only the half of it. The rest was filled with housekeepers waiting outside of my room, like i was a prisoner....or someone being kicked out of a facility! TERRIBLE!!! August 27, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by SPGPilot Consistent and Pleasant This hotel is very consistent in its quailty and its very pleasant outdoor California atmosphere. August 7, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by bacaboy Real concerns We arrived a little early and were told our rooms were not ready, for which we understood. We were assured they would be ready by 3:00. Upon returning, we were informed that the party's rating requested late departure. We were assured the room would be ready by 3:30. We returned. Party had not checked out yet. They told us to return in 25 minutes. We did. They were barely starting to clean the room. We were told it would be ready by 4:00. We waiting around in the lobby intill 4:30, an hour an a half after GUARANTEED check-in time. The kids were exhausted from the flight. Tired of waiting in the car. Cranky. We were compensated with two drinks and nachos. Yea, right. Two mornings after our phone rang at 4:00 a.m. In the morning. No answer. It took everyone until 5:30 to fall asleep again. Front desk could not explain the reason. We asked them to block all calls. We use out cells. Two mornings after the incident, the phone rang again, after a block had been placed on incoming calls. Front desk couldnt explain why yhenphone rang again. We took it upon ourselves to unplug all the phones in the suite. Needless to say, out stay was a nightmare and the only compensation we realized was two small drinks and nachos. We travel to La Jolla every summer and have stayed at your establishment for the past 12 years. This was so unfortunate for us. We plan to continue staying at the Sheraton with the hopes that this was an isolated experience. Your staff showed little concern and seemed totally helpless during this bizarre stay. August 7, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Mark36391 Dissapointment I have stayed at this property a few times in the past for business. I was fortunate enough to actually take my family and friends down for the weekend for fun! On this stay, I was so disappointed...At check in I asked for a room upgrade for platinum status (and I have NEVER asked for an upgrade in the last five years) and they said nothing was available. When I shared that we had checked on the way down and there were junior suites available. The front desk person than said that only the manager could release those and she was not there. Okay...I was fine with that but disappointed. The real disappointment came later that night. They were having a party/event in a building next to our room. It was SO LOUD! at 9:15pm my family could not sleep due to the music and I called down to the front desk. Later at 10:30pm there was a group of around 10 people outside of our room and were laughing, drinking, and yelling (they seemed to be drunk) and I called the front desk. At 12:30am my kids were awoke by the music again. I had it!!! Went to front desk and asked them to talk to the event cordinator to stop the music. Luckily the nighmare was over at 12:45am. I asked to have the manager call me at a convenient time the next morning. At check out at 12pm I went to the front desk to get bill. I asked if there was any comments on my record for a call. They said 'yes, you didn't get a call?"...I said no. She offered to get her and I said 'no' it's too late I just wanted to share our time here...now it's too late my family is waiting for me. Poor service, poor follow-through. June 4, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by milhouse7 Enjoyable escape in La Jolla Had a little difficulty finding the hotel, so needed the GPS to find exact location. Luckily I read about front desk being seperate from the rooms, so I didn't unload the vehicle. it is not obvious when you pull up that this is almost a resort style property. Check in was easy and was given 50% off coupon to the dining room. Since i hadn't had lunch yet, I decided to try it out. The dining room looks a little dated but still comfortable. I was surprised it had a few people dining in the middle of the afternoon. The menu looked very complete and when I received my dish I was surprised at the quality and taste of the food. Two thumbs up big time! I drove around to the backside of the property where the club rooms are located. The room was nicely laid out with wooden shutters which was nice. Pretty much a standard Sheraton type room. I noticed a balcony in the back which faced the pool in the middle although I didn't use it. The bed was comfortable and had a good sleep until at 4am I heard loud footsteps above me for what seemed like hours. People were running around on the floor above me and it made and the vibration went right through my room. Next time I will make sure to request a room on the top floor! I also noticed the lamp turned itself on at about the same time which I found odd. I couldnt figure how to turn it off, so I just unplugged it. Priot to check out I noticed the folio which they send via email had internet charge for both nights, despite it being free for platinums. I called the front desk and they say they normally remove at checkout time. Ya right, I've heard that line before!! I don't know why some properties do this as if it was required it would happen at all properties. All in all, I enjoyed my stay at Sheraton La Jolla and would consider staying here again! March 4, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Summer6208 Service and Staff are the Best! I stay at this Sheraton from time to time, and my experience has been consistently great here. I wanted to recognize Christine for outstanding service during my last 2 consecutive stays. She was able to secure me the same room for 2 consecutive nights (2 different reservations) and then when the room had a minor issue, she promptly moved me into an amazing upgrade. She and the rest of the staff were very friendly and made me laugh after coming back to check in for my second night after a grueling day of travel and meetings. Highly recommend! October 30, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by KellyinOH Great hotel and staff!!! I was in San Diego on a business trip and can honestly say this is a great hotel. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful right down to the security guards and maintenence men. Bar staff is great and grounds are beautiful. Has a resort feel to it rather than a hotel. Bar is frequented by locals as well, which is nice. Very nice people all around. Beds and rooms very comfortable! My only complaint with this hotel is the menu selection. Not a wide variety, though hotel guests get 50% off prices. I would certainly stay here agin!!! December 4, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by unlikely This hotel needs an update The general condition of this hotel needs improvement. The rooms are outdated and the air conditioning system is outdated as well. In our room (405), it stopped working in the middle of the night waking up everyone with a terrible knocking sound. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. July 28, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Mare1125 A good stay There were a couple of things in the hotel room that bothered me. First, the phones weren't working properly and I was told they're in the process of replacing the phones. It would have been nice if there was a notice about this. Also in the bathroom there wasn't an exhaust fan. The hotel is perfect for those visiting family members going to UCSD medical school. The school is walking distance from the hotel. The food in the restaurant in the hotel was delicious. I was impressed. July 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by TravelingMama Great stay in LaJolla This is a great Sheraton! The hotel is clean, the grounds are beautiful, it is close to UCSD, shopping, Trader Joes, Sprinkle Cupcakes, (all walking distance), the I-5 which makes it easy to get around San Diego. It is 10 minutes to the Aquarium and to the beach (not walking distance) but it is clean, great bar, great and helpful Bellman (Michael) he knows all the helpful hints and it is a quiet but kid friendly hotel. A true hidden treasure that I am glad we found and weill definitely return! August 22, 2012

Greener Is Cleaner Week 3: Fresh Air for Spring
This week, learn how to get the allergy triggers and toxins out of your home
Air Invader: Mold spores
Best Defense: If you have spots of mold, clean with a bleach-based solution, then let it air dry, says the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI). If you prefer not to have chlorine (bleach) in your home, the low-fume combination of borax and distilled white vinegar will also do the trick. In addition, check fans and ventilation in basements, kitchens, and bathrooms. If your house is consistently damp, invest in a de-humidifier. If your mold problem is serious, call a professional.
Air Invader: Seasonal pollen
Best Defense: Keep windows closed at night and try to filter air with an air conditioner or air purifier during high pollen counts, instructs the AAAAI. Wash or rinse Baby's hair and body every night during allergy season, says Dr. Maria Yerovi, MD, a New Jersey-based pediatrician. "When they play outside, make sure you clean your children's hair and body; that way they don't have to breathe in [allergens carried in] overnight and make symptoms worse."
Air Invader: Dust mites
Best Defense: Allergy specialists agree: Cover pillows and mattresses with dust-mite covers, wash sheets in hot water, and vacuum regularly with a HEPA-filtration system. Place Baby's soft toys in the freezer regularly to kill off mites. If your child's allergies are severe, replace carpeting with wood or tile flooring.
Air Invader: Fumes from household products
Best Defense: Replace your harshest cleaners, such as oven cleaners and toilet disinfectants, with eco-friendly products, easily found at the grocery store. Baking soda, lemon, and vinegar are three favorites of cleaning expert Linda Cobb, especially for child-friendly solutions. Replace old nail polish and nail polish remover with newer, less toxic brands. Keep home maintenance and workshop supplies such as paints, motor oils, and glues away from living areas if possible.

After Jane Pole was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease three years ago at age 51, she and her husband Ron found comfort, camaraderie, and even humor in Without Warning, Rush University Medical Center's group for people with early onset Alzheimer's disease.
"We know there's two ways of looking at the situation, either dismally or with a grin," Ron says. "In Without Warning, we find reasons to laugh, no matter how grim it is. Life is a gift, and you can't bemoan the fact that Jane has Alzheimer's. Life changes, that's all."
Jane is one of the nearly 500,000 people in the United States who have early onset Alzheimer's disease - that is, who develop the illness before they reach age 65. Although the memory loss and mental confusion the disease causes is devastating at any age, it presents a different set of challenges for people with early onset Alzheimer's and their families. Rush University Medical Center in Chicago created the Without Warning group to help them address these challenges, give them a sense of connectedness and find a sense of purpose.
Rush created the group in response to a request by Marty Bahr, who is now 57 years old and was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in his early 50s. He felt out of place in support groups made up of elderly people and wanted to be able to meet individuals with Alzheimer's who were his own age.
"He kept talking about the fact that early onset is so different from having Alzheimer's when you're older," explains Bahr's wife, Laurie. "When you're in your 40s or your 50s and you contract the disease, your circumstances are different - there are different challenges, needs and concerns."
While elderly Alzheimer's disease patients are past retirement age and may have adult children to look after them, individuals with early onset Alzheimer's are in the middle of their careers and often are caring for their own young children. The loss of memory, comprehension and reasoning ability the illness causes means they'll eventually have to give up their jobs and child-rearing responsibilities, creating a financial and emotional strain for their family.
Individuals with early onset Alzheimer's also may live another 15 to 20 years. "People with early onset are going to have to plan for the disease for a long time," observes David Bennett, MD, director of the Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center. "For spouses as well, it has a different impact on your marriage in the middle of life than when you're old."
There are 300 to 400 individuals with early onset Alzheimer's disease among the approximately 2,000 patients being treated for the illness at Rush, some of them as young as their early 30s. "It's hard to believe that people are so young and could actually have a disease that we generally think is for the elderly," says Pam Smith, education coordinator for Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center, who organizes the Without Warning group. "It's harder to get the diagnosis. A lot of time these people go through numerous physicians because the doctors can't believe they have Alzheimer's."
In addition to Smith, the Without Warning team includes Danielle Arends, RN, director of nursing in the Rush Memory and Aging Project; nurse practitioner Anna Treinkman, CNP; social worker Susan Frick; and music therapist Nancy Swanson.
The Without Warning group began meeting in April of 2004 and currently includes 17 individuals with early onset Alzheimer's disease and their caregivers. "Compared to what we started with, the number of people we have now is remarkable," Marty Bahr says.

"Chronic sleep loss may not only hasten the onset, but could also increase the severity of age-related ailments such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and memory loss," Says Eve Van Cauter, PhD, professor of medicine at the University of Chicago.
In addition, lack of sleep is associated with depression, anxiety, and even accelerated aging. "When we are tired, we feel edgy, irritable, and are more reactive to stress," says holistic pharmacist Sherry Torkos, author of the Better Nutrition Healthy Living Guide Relax.
The most common sleep complaint is insomnia. It affects about one-third of the American population, with women more than twice as likely to experience it as men.
Is It Insomnia?
Many people are not getting the recommended seven to nine hours of sound sleep per night. Do all of those people have insomnia? If you have difficulty falling asleep, can't stay asleep, and/or experience poor sleep quality at least three nights a week for more than a month, you have insomnia.
Some people have what's known as stress-induced insomnia, when the stress of everyday living gets in the way of a good night's sleep. This type of insomnia can be difficult to manage because we often can't simply remove the stressor, such as money problems or job pressures.
Insomnia can be maddening. As a result, many people turn to over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription drugs. These drugs are not without their side effects, which can include dependence, confusion, dry mouth, and morning drowsiness. Some people experience allergic reactions, and these drugs can interact negatively with painkillers, sedatives, other drugs, and alcohol. Withdrawal from sleeping medications can also cause nausea and a worsening of insomnia. The good news is that there are many natural ingredients that can provide a viable, and safe alternative to OTC and prescription sleeping pills.
Sleep-Enhancing Supplements
For those suffering from chronic insomnia, just drinking a cup of chamomile tea in the evening is often not enough. The following natural, scientifically validated, safe alternatives to OTC and prescription sleep medications pack a bit more punch.
Melatonin is best known as a natural cure for jet lag. However, many studies have shown it to be very effective for insomnia. A 2008 study showed that 5 mg of melatonin daily helped shift-working nurses fall asleep more easily. The newest information regarding melatonin is that a controlled release form is proving to be even more effective. A recent report in the journal Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs showed that a prolonged-release melatonin supplement significantly improved morning alertness and sleep quality in patients over age 55. Melatonin is particularly effective for people having difficulty falling asleep, although the sustained release form may help you stay asleep.
Gamma-aminobutyric acid, also known as GABA, is an amino acid proven to be an effective natural insomnia treatment. In 2008, researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston showed that nonmedicated individuals suffering from insomnia have significantly lower levels of GABA in the brain. The recommended dosage for GABA is 250 to 1,000 mg one to two times per day, taken 45 minutes before bedtime.
In 1990, tryptophan was taken off the market due to contamination. Today, pure, pharmaceutical-grade L-tryptophan (trade name TryptoPure) is back on the market, so people can take advantage of this powerful natural substance. L-tryptophan is an amino acid that has been shown to naturally enhance sleep. L-tryptophan crosses the blood-brain barrier where it is converted to serotonin and later further metabolized into melatonin. The recommended dosage of L-tryptophan is 500 to 3,000 mg, 30 minutes before bedtime. Talk with your doctor before combining tryptophan with antidepressant medications.
For stress-induced insomnia try L-theanine. "For several years I have been impressed that Suntheanine (a brand of L-theanine) is the only substance, natural or otherwise, that reduces feelings of stress and improves sleep quality without creating drowsiness or diminished motor performance," explains Michael R. Lyon, MD, medical and research director of the Canadian Centre for Functional Medicine with the University of British Columbia. Try 200 to 500 mg of L-theanine, one to three times daily, alone or in combination with GABA.
In addition to achieving seven to nine hours of sleep each night, it is important to experience quality sleep with fewer awakenings. For this, Michael Murray, ND, recommends 3 mg daily of methylcobalamin, (vitamin B12). Murray says studies show methylcobalamin improves sleep quality, increases alertness during the day, and helps individuals feel refreshed in the morning.
What's New?
While melatonin, GABA, and tryptophan are popular and effective natural sleep aids, there is a less well-known, but equally impressive, natural substance you might want to try: Seditol is a propriety combination of Magnolia officinalis bark, shown to have antianxiety properties, and Zizyphus spinosa seed, which has a history of use for insomnia in traditional Chinese medicine.
Researchers recently tested Seditol on 295 volunteers with mild-to-moderate sleep difficulties. The researchers concluded that Seditol helped improve restful sleep and reduced fatigue associated with lack of sleep in more than 80 percent of participants. Nearly 90 percent said they felt more relaxed on the product.
What Else Can You Do?
In addition to taking dietary supplements, people who have difficulty sleeping may want to try the following dietary and lifestyle tips to help ensure consistent and sound slumber:
The first step to easing insomnia and poor sleep quality is by recognizing it is a problem and then finding ways to reverse the trend.
Sleep Well, Be Well
Because we spend about one-third of our lives sleeping, it makes sense to maximize that time. Dietary supplements can help enhance the quantity and quality of our slumber. This will ensure our bodies can replenish, restore, and rejuvenate, which will help us get ready to tackle another day. Don't underestimate the significant value of a good night's sleep. If you sleep well, you will be well.
Michael T. Murray, ND, is the author of more than 30 books on natural health, including The Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine, Third Edition. He is regarded as one of the world's top authorities on natural medicine, and is a sought-after lecturer and educator. Visit him online at doctormurray.com.

Naturopathica Serves Up An Ace
In the spirit of Wimbledon, I've been playing more tennis on the courts near my apartment. While I won't be breaking records like Serena Williams anytime soon (13 Grand Slam singles titles!), I have been dealing with some pro-muscle soreness. To soothe the aches and pains, I've been taking lots of steamy showers and liberally applying Naturopathica's Arnica Muscle Gel, a minty wonder from the Eco-certified holistic skin and body care range created by natural beauty pioneer Barbara Close (cousin of Glenn). The gel contains an organic blend of arnica, cooling menthol, and body-repairing magnesium to help dissolve stiffness in overworked muscles. It functions a bit like Bengay, but unlike that thick sports cream, this has a lightweight texture that absorbs easily without leaving a sticky residue or toothpaste-like aroma on your skin. I like to rub it into my quads, calves, and forearms, and then beg my fiancé to do my back and shoulders. If you don't have an S.O. or personal trainer to take on those duties, treat yourself to the Body Melt Back Therapy service at Naturopathica's Holistic Health Spa in East Hampton. An aesthetician works generous amounts of Arnica Muscle Gel into sore spots, using various massage techniques and warm towels to release tension and undo knots before finishing up with an added bonus scalp massage.

This week, on MTV's Teen Mom 2 Season 5 Episode 20, Jenelle Evans' boyfriend Nathan Griffith got into another huge fight with her mom, Barbara Evans.
Luckily, we got to witness it all because we watch Teen Mom 2 online.
Not so luckily, four-year-old Jace also has to witness it. This is his life.
With baby Kaiser on the way any time, Jenelle Evans and Nathan Griffith are busy taking selfies. And putting together a registry for her baby shower.
Babs finds out what items they put on there and flips out on Nathan.
She scolds him on asking for expensive stuff, and Nathan reminds Barbara that she is not his mother ... and that she's an alcoholic. Oof. Over the line?
Jenelle tries to intervene, but Barbara Evans keeps on screaming at Nathan as he flees the house to get away from her mom, who is still fired up.
Babs tells Jenelle she's worried about her and the way he treats her.
