What a find, we moved here after our first 7 days of hell from the Caribou Lodge which needs shutting down! And what a refreshing change, all the staff are so friendly and make sure you have a fantastic stay. The facilities here are great and have so much to do on the grounds. The hotel bar is ace and we meet a lot of nice people from Calgary who we ended up drinking with till very late. The hotel is a bit far away compared to other hotels however the hotel puts on a minibus to and from town (only 5min). The rooms are basic but very comfy and has everything you will need to have a great time. We found the prices in Banff restaurants to be very expensive since we last came to Banff so appreciated being able to cook a couple of times.
I we was to come back to Banff I would book here without doubt

It may seem a little insane, but we promise it's worth it. We're bringing you the live music you shouldn't miss for every night of the week in Louisville.
Louisville's Old 502 Winery and Falls City Brewing Co. are bringing an all new dining experience to the Portland neighborhood.
Louisville's Arts Evolution as Highlands Culture becomes Louisville Culture
Arrow Food Couriers is delivering something new.
2015 is going to be a game changer for Against the Grain Smokehouse and Brewery. They are creating a new dining menu and opening a second brewing location in Portland.
Baby it is cold outside and not warming up soon; head indoors for family entertainment this weekend, January 10-11.
Music Makes a City at Tim Faulkner Gallery is a free concert event coordinated by Louisville Orchestra Music Director Teddy Abrams and local hip-hop artist Jecorey Arthur. The lineup includes all local musicians from the University of Louisville Chamber Orchestra to indie royalty, Bonnie Prince Billy.
Louisville's Portland neighborhood badly needs revitalizing input, but can the well-intentioned efforts of "outsiders" overcome the neighborhood's suspicions about gentrification?
Portland's something of a buzzword in Louisville these days. It seems like everyone who's anyone is headed to the old port city. WHAS11 reported in May 2013 that Portland could be Louisville's next BIG housing district - and I've heard rumors that you can propose a development plan and get a lot there for $500. As Ashlie Stevens said in a recent article for WFPL that was cited in Planetizen, "Change is coming to Louisville's Portland Neighborhood, like it or not." So what's up with Portland, anyway?...
Take your special guy out for a treat or some quality time this Father's Day, Sunday, June 15.
Portland: the new NuLu?
A westward expansion of Waterfront Park is finally in the works.

As the season approaches, which teams are the experts picking to reach the Final Four? Which squad is a team on the rise? Who's the best ball handler in the country? And exactly what do they expect from Candace Parker? We grilled our panel -- bracket expert Charlie Creme, columnist Mechelle Voepel and ESPN's Nancy Lieberman and Beth Mowins -- for the answers.
Candace Parker will
Creme: Struggle early, not becoming a difference-maker until late in the season when she is the key to a Tennessee national championship.
Lieberman: Dunk on somebody this year!
Mowins: Dunk more than once.
Voepel: Be as eye-opening on defense as she in on offense. Her wingspan, quickness, leaping ability and strength will be part of what could be a witheringly effective Tennessee team defense.
My bold prediction for this year is
Creme: Jessica Davenport will block a Candace Parker dunk attempt in an NCAA Tournament game.
Lieberman: Tennessee is going to win its seventh title.
Mowins: Cappie Pondexter and Monique Currie will be rewarded for coming back to school with All-America honors and a trip to the Final Four.
Voepel: Duke will overcome the "reputation" that it has been tagged with -- not coming through in the biggest moments -- and will win the national championship. I expect this could be saved and e-mailed back to me in April from the region of eastern Tennessee or who knows where.

Eight homicides were reported in Chicago in the last week, with two of the killings in the Lower West Side community, according to preliminary police data.
Two men, ages 18 and 22, were shot to death Saturday in what police believe were gang-related killings. Charges had not been announced in the homicides, as of Wednesday afternoon.
The Lower West Side, which is just north of the Stevenson Expressway on the West Side, has reported two homicides so far this year. The community logged three homicides last year, down from seven killings in 2013, according to RedEye data.
Citywide, gunshot homicides have been recorded in the last week in the Roseland, Washington Heights and Woodlawn communities on the South Side and the Uptown community on the North Side, according to police information.
Meanwhile, a man has been charged with murder after allegedly stabbing his ex-wife's boyfriend to death Saturday in the New City community on the Southwest Side, officials said. On Monday, a seven-month South Lawndale girl died from blunt force trauma, allegedly at the hands of her grandma, according to officials.
Ten homicides have been reported so far this month. Twenty-five homicides were logged in March 2014, according to RedEye data.
The city has reported 61 homicides, as of Wednesday afternoon, versus 52 killings in the same period in 2014, according to RedEye data.

Green Mountain Power fined more over Lowell WindThe Associated Press | February 07,2013LOWELL — Vermont utility regulators have fined Green Mountain Power $30,000 stemming from five violations in its permit to ship turbine parts to an industrial wind-power project last year.
The utility had reached a settlement that included a $7,500 fine over the violations with the state Department of Public Service. Regulators on the Vermont Public Service Board accepted the settlement, but disagreed with the amount.
Board members said a higher penalty is warranted for violating the transportation plan, the Caledonian-Record reports.
The investigation into alleged violations began during Green Mountain Power's shipments across Vermont of parts to the Lowell wind project.
The board said the utility acknowledges that the proceeding reiterated the importance of flawless compliance.MORE IN This Just In

Your friend is horrible. I would not be able to be friends with someone like that.
Especially if it was affecting me negatively and really in the circumstances how could it not?
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:53 AM
I think your friend sounds rather shallow and self-absorbed and his behaviour would p*ss me off. In fact it would p*ss me off so much, I'd probably be turned off him and the friendship.
I hav no advice really, it's your friendship and you know whether it's worth it or not, but if I had a friend like that I think the friendship would probably end, or at least not be quite the friendship it once was.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:56 AM
I would struggle to continue a friendship like this. Selfishness and hateful are not an endearing qualities. I'd just let the friendship go quietly.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 09:58 AM
Gay or straight some people can be total self absorbed SOBs. If he is continually making you uncomfortable then I suggest to talk to him and tell him what you are feeling about his attitude towards "fat" people. If he just does not get it or refuses to acknowledge your point of view then I suggest to move on and limit the contact between you.
People can be jerks and don't this one get you down.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 10:02 AM
Yeah sorry but your friend sounds like a complete prick actually.
He says he doesn't care about his date's feelings. He also said he doesn't care about your feelings. I can't even begin to imagine why you would continue to see him.

It's like him saying "I hate [insert name of your ethnic group] but you're OK". It's still hateful.
It's alright to be attracted to whoever you want, but it's not OK to lead people on.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 10:02 AM
Your friend sounds like a jerk.
I have lots of gay friends that wouldn't date someone based on looks - the difference is they wouldn't string them along either.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 10:08 AM
He's done a few jerky things lately but the issue is my son is close to him - closest thing he has to a father figure so I guess if I'm going to withdraw from him I know it's going to break my son's heart not to see him often. I guess in my heart I'd moved him closer to "family" then friend due to his involvement with my boy and have had the attitude of ah well, can't pick family. But this one would be hard to overlook. And eventually my kid would start to pick up on those attitudes as well I guess.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 10:10 AM
Quite honestly, I would want to be limiting my child's exposure to someone with attitudes such as those your friend has.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 10:13 AM
Why are you friends with him ?

Same. I know lots of people that may choose not to date someone based on being overweight, but they don't hate overweight people it's an attraction thing same as I know lots of people who wouldn't date a smoker or really muscly people or super thin people. Superficial yes but we are attracted to what we are attracted to. However they don't go on and on about how gross they are! Also they wouldn't have a problem with those same qualities being in a friend.
I'd say your friend was either trying to be cool, has low self esteem or is just an a*s*hole.

Now that you've given more info I wouldn't want him around my child. My kids dad (who is also gay) would never date someone overweight whilst DP and I both are. But he is nothing but supportive and respectful. He was there when our kids were both born and saw way more than any of us expected but he's only ever said kind things to my DP.
I'd be limiting the exposure of your friend and his arrogant attitude on your son if I were you.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 10:37 AM
I know you say you value his relationship with your son but is that the role you want for your boy? Someone who thinks looks are more important than personality, someone who would willingly play with another person emotions and not care what damage could be cause, someone who claims to care about you but continually does and says things to hurt you?
Those are not the lessons I want my children learning.
He doesn't sound like a very good friend or role model at all.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 10:45 AM
There's a lot of people I'm not personally attracted to. Or my single friends aren't attracted to.
It's not wrong to be unattracted to someone, even for a silly reason. For example I am turned off by androgynous men even if on some level I can think they're pretty. I just can't feel "that."
So I don't date them. Being a little bit shallow is okay as far as who you look for romantically, no point in tying yourself into a relationship that leaves you feeling icky or forced. But it's no reason to lie or lead; if nothing else, every moment you spend with not-your-type guy is a moment you're not finding someone who, if not your life partner, is still at least Sexy!Fun, as isn't the whole point finding someone you either want to be with long term or someone who's Sexy!Fun...?
If you care about him as a friend I would say you were worried about him. Doesn't he know he's a great guy, (if he is) and he's worth someone who makes him truly happy, and not to waste both their time or try to settle. This time-biding with someone you find yucky is a sign of lack of confidence and self-worth IMO.

True. Or it could just be that he's an asshat who gets off on someone fawning over him despite him having no attraction whatsoever?
Posted 13 April 2012 - 11:03 AM
Sounds like an ex friend of mine. We don�t talk anymore because she took her selfishness to a new level which didn�t only affect me but upset and cost my friends and family quite a bit of money.
She used to tell me about guys and how she wasn�t interested but just wanted to be �friends� yet she would lead them on hold hands and kiss them.. And when the guys started speaking about being in a relationship she just wouldn�t get it! The way she treated them disgusted me.. The way she decided to hand her kids over to her ex husband for full custody because she wanted her life back shocked me.. But that was her choice and all the things I can see she has done that have affected myself and many other people just show how self absorbed she is. Maybe one day she will regret it or maybe not?
I would let him know that his comments offend you and that the right thing to do is to let this other person know that he just wants to be friends.. If he doesn�t listen that is his choice but if the fat comments keep coming then I would say he isn�t that great a friend.. BUT I don�t know your situation or your friend. This is just my view as an outsider.. Hopefully he has had a think about what you have said and will think before he speaks.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 11:11 AM
I have a straight friend like that.
he would say things like "I could never go out with a girl with a figure like yours (curvey) because I just love fit girls so much" blah blah blah.
I always just told him I was perfectly fine and happy with how I looked and I bet I met someone before he did.
anyway years on I am happy, married, in love (my Hubby is even more round then me!). He is still single and alone wondering why he never meets anyone
I feel bad for my friend but, you know, he kind of has to figure out that it is his a-hole attitude that is keeping him for finding real happyness.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 11:43 AM
It's actually all about him, IMO.
It sounds like he is, underneath it all, a good person, but he has a massive inferiority complex. That's why he needs to criticize everyone, and that is why he continues to date people he doesn't like. Because at least then he is dating somebody, which in his eyes makes him a worthy human being. He clearly can't stand to be single and needs to put everyone down - classic self esteem issues.
The fact that he talks about hating fat bodies in front of you is so wrong. But I honestly think he doesn't understand that this would be insulting to you. And when you called him out on it he probably just clammed up and got defensive and said "don't take it personally!". Because in his view, deluded and self absorbed as it is, it isn't about you at all.
I have a friend who was so obsessed with being fat (she is a size 6-8) that she would go on and on about how fat she was, to me (size 14-16) and another friend of ours (size 18-20). We would sit there gobsmacked, but she honestly had no idea, she was so self obsessed she didn't see us at all.
If I were you I would give it a bit, then catch up with him and lay down the law. I would say something like "When you fat bash I actually find it really insulting, I don't want to hear that crap, and I don't want my son exposed to it. So don't do it in front of me."
He might get defensive again but will probably come around. He might eventually understand, or he might just chalk it up to you being sensitive, but hopefully he will respect your request nonetheless.
It sounds like you guys have a special friendship, I wouldn't want to end it over his self esteem issues, but I wouldn't want to put up with that talk either.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 02:35 PM
Thanks for that Tesseract - your post made a lot of sense. I'm liking hearing the other opinions too. I'm due to see him Sunday and glad I've got a few days to think about it all. Although is Facebook now says "Pash Rash" so I think he may be following the whole make out with him thing even though he doesn't want more ...Ack.

I'd be worried whether his affection for your son fell into that category as well, and that hurting your child (emotionally) wouldn't even register. I imagine you think that your friend would never do that, but you probably didn't think he'd lead someone on in that manner either.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 03:32 PM
Good point and I guess I've been too worried to acknowledge I've seen a few signs that it might be that his affection for my kid is kinda of about how it reflects on him and makes him feel than actually what my son might need. He went through a withdrawn, sulky stage a while ago and didn't see my son who was missing him and when I asked about it he said, that he was sad and didn't want to be around my son sad, and was a little taken back when I said, the kid doesn't really care, all he knows is you aren't around anymore and doesn't understand.
Posted 13 April 2012 - 03:38 PM
Tecopa, look up Narcissistic Personality Disorder. I think your friend is showing some classic markers for it and its not just being shallow and self absorbed. (I hope I am wrong though).
I would honestly put some distance between yourselves at the moment. You need to be thinking about your son and whether this relationship is actually a positive one for him or not

Growing up in film and the online era, Abigail knows better than anyone—it's rough out there in love-land. And this generation is ill-prepared to handle it gracefully. Let's be honest: if Cinderella had been on Twitter, she'd have ended up a crazy old cat lady like the rest of us. #realtalkSo when your "boyfriend" is liking different eligible young things' selfies, what's a modern ingenue to do? Put down the iPhone, step away from the hair dye, and ~chill~. Abbie is here with cautionary tales and solid advice on being a classy-ass lady in the digital age. Because, girls, we're more than what meets the newsfeed. And this may sound crazy…But we've got this.
Plus, this book is gorgeous inside and out. With a foil cover and heavily designed interior, this collection will be the crowning jewel on any teen's nightstand.
All books signed at Book Revue events must be purchased at Book Revue. If you purchase the book prior to the event please save your receipt.

My husband and I enjoyed a two-night stay at the Hotel Sainte-Anne. This was our first visit to Quebec City, and the location of the Inn could not have been better. The property itself was modern, clean and well kept. The staff were friendly and spoke to us in English. The overnight rate included a breakfast that consisted of fresh fruit, yogurt, granola, bread items, coffee, juice and scrambled eggs with bacon or ham if requested. My husband and I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Deep-Dish Apple Pie
This is the easiest apple pie you'll ever make -- and we think one of the best! Tart Granny Smith apples are topped with a no-roll biscuit-like crust that bakes up crisp on the outside and moist and tender on the inside.
Level: Moderate
Yield: 1 pie
Serves: 12
Advertisement - Continue Reading Below
Apple Filling:
- 6 lb. Granny Smith apples
- ¾ c. sugar
- ⅓ c. all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- ½ tsp. ground cinnamon
- 2 c. all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. salt
- ¼ c. sugar
- 1 tbsp. sugar
- 4 tbsp. margarine or butter
- 1 large egg
- .67 c. heavy or whipping cream
- 2 tbsp. heavy or whipping cream
- Prepare apple filling: In large bowl, combine apples, sugar, flour, lemon juice, and cinnamon, toss to coat well. Spoon apple mixture into 13-inch by 9-inch glass baking dish, set aside.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare crust: In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, and 1/4 cup sugar. With pastry blender or 2 knives used scissor-fashion, cut in margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in egg and 2/3 cup cream until blended.
- With floured hands, shape dough into a ball. Divide dough into 6 pieces, flatten each to about 1/2-inch thickness and arrange on top of apple mixture. (It is not necessary to completely cover top, as dough bakes, it will spread.) Brush dough with remaining cream, and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
- Place sheet of foil underneath baking dish, crimp foil edges to form a rim to catch any drips during baking. To prevent overbrowning, cover pie loosely with a tent of foil halfway through baking time. Bake pie about 1 hour 15 minutes or until apples are tender when pierced with knife, filling is bubbly, and crust is golden. Cool pie on wire rack 1 hour to serve warm, or cool completely to serve later.

Our new "How to Study the Bible" series starts soon! Sign up today.
24:4–14 Wars, earthquakes, persecutions, and false prophets are all signs of Jesus' coming, but they indicate only the certainty of judgment, not its time (vv. 6, 8). Such signs characterize the entire period between His resurrection and His coming in judgment. Knowing when Jesus would return would lead His disciples to laziness and laxity in their watchfulness. The "when" (v. 3) that Jesus gives is task oriented: it is after the gospel has been preached to the nations (v. 14).
