I visited this facility
We took my mom to Brookdale Bossier City, which is near where my mother, sister-in-law, and brother are, so we thought that would probably be the best. Of the places we visited, it was the most likely to encourage interaction of residents. They had little neighborhoods where you have several immediate neighbors and all the doors were facing each other and a sitting area. These little areas were interspersed throughout the hallways, both upstairs and downstairs, so I thought it was conducive to decreasing that isolation people have a lot of the time. I liked the tour guide because she was so personable with the potential residents and not condescending. Brookdale Bossier City would have been my mother's choice and our choice. It made the other communities that we looked at look considerably less desirable.

My dad is at Horizon Bay, and I like that they have a good nursing staff that is more extensive than some of the others in the Bossier area. It is closest to my home, so it is convenient for me. I like the medical staff they have; basically they have 24/7 care. The staff is caring, and the patients come first; they would stop whatever they're doing to help. They're doing a good job with him.
They are in excellent care grounds that are well-cared for, plain, and attractive, and it's a nice looking place in general. We've eaten with him a couple of times, and I think it's satisfactory. They tell me that if there is food that he either shouldn't have -- which we do have that situation -- or doesn't like, he can request something they have, and he is learning to do that.
He really likes dominos, and he is finding people to play dominos with. Today when I took him back from his doctor's appointment, they were setting up to play some kind of bean bag baseball. He was all excited to see the headman in rehab, and he jumped in and played with them. He is getting adjusted. We have had our days of adjustment that he was overly shy or would not put forth the effort, but he realizes if he is going to enjoy it, he has to put forth some effort also. He is coming around to it, and I already have recommended the facility.

My dad moved to Horizon Bay last April. It is a beautiful place with nice people and availability, and it is close to my sister. Their apartments are nice and spacious and they also have a common area that's real elegant. They just remodeled the dining room, so it's very elegant. The menu is placed in a leather bound book and set on the table. I'd love to be able to eat three meals a day there. He is happy, healthy, and the food is great. The staff is just phenomenal. They had Bingo, baseball, bean bags, and dominos. It's just an amazing place and I never expected to find something that nice.

My mother has been in Horizon Bay since August. It's a good, clean place. For the most part, the staff is all very good. The accommodations are good. The security is round the clock. They do have bingo and I know she does that once in a while. The thing is that you'd have to have a calendar in her hand all the time to tell her what is going on at any given time. The staff really doesn't do that so once in a while my wife will call down there and tell them. She'll know that they've got something going on and she'll tell them to check with her and see if she wants to go do that.
If they're going to leave the memory care area, they have to be escorted by one of the caregivers. Her memory is not that great and if she gets halfway down the hallway, she won't remember where she's heading.

Horizon Bay is really close to my house. When we had a visit there, the first person we talked to didn't really know a lot because it wasn't her job, she was just filling in and that turned my father off. We did a second visit and the lady who toured us was very knowledgeable. The rooms were really very nice. The only thing I could say about this place is that it's a little bit outdated.

My husband and I moved to Horizon Bay three months ago and the community is great. Everything is very convenient for you here. The staff is very pleasant. We have a little bus that takes people to their doctor's appointments, to the restaurants, and shopping. That bus comes in handy for those residents who do not drive or do not have a family close by. They have a lot of activities going on everyday like bingo, little exercise classes, and Yoga. They also celebrate birthday parties. They have some outside person come in, such as singers to entertain. Most people here are very friendly. We have a two-bedroom apartment with a living room, a kitchenette, and a pretty good-sized bathroom. We are really pleased with this facility and I am just enjoying it. They have a nice little dining area, but I do hear a lot of complaints about the food and I hate to put them down for anything because I really do like it in here and I have no plans to leave here. I feel a little bad for the people who don't have a choice in regards to their food.

My son lives here in Bossier City and found Horizon Bay for us. We were initially looking for a place for my husband, but this facility made it possible that I can stay and live with him. We moved in about the 12th of June. We are pleased with this facility. We have three meals a day. Food is not restaurant-quality but we are surviving. What I like best about this facility is its location. It is just is outstanding for us. It is just nearer everything that we need. It is also close to where my son lives.

I visited this facility
The staff at Horizon Bay were friendly. I liked their menu choices, the availability of food anytime and it could be brought to the room if they were not feeling well. They had a little exercise room but I did not see a lot of area where they could walk outside. It was not really a concern to us because our mom was not an outside person. I also liked that everybody looked clean.

I became familiar with Horizon Bay in Bossier City when my mother and my aunt were looking for an assisted living facility for my grandmother to stay at when it became clear it was just too dangerous for her to live at home alone. Located on Beene Boulevard, Horizon Bay is convenient to Willis Knighton, a hospital in Bossier City, and is also a quick, easy drive via the 220 from Shreveport, which is where my mother and my sister live. The staff at Horizon Bay are very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They seemed to view potential problems as opportunities and always rose to the occasion no matter how busy they were. Everyone I met there was very friendly and very eager to help in any way they could.Horizon Bay always seemed very cheerful, they often had live performers playing music for the residents gathered in the lounge area and my Grandmother made a few friends while she was there. It seemed that most of the residents spent very little time in their apartments, every time I was there I saw lots of them drinking coffee, chatting, playing cards and enjoying other activities. There were also off-site activities for the residents who were able to go shopping and go to the casinos and such and Horizon Bay even provides transportation to and from these outings. I was absolutely sure my Grandmother would gripe about the food, and she did, but not nearly as much as I thought she would. The dietician and the rest of the kitchen staff seem to understand how important food is to older people and they really went out of their way to provide very personalized, delicious, healthy meals and snacks. They found out that my Grandmother liked corn bread and buttermilk and made sure she was offered a snack of the same every day. That extra effort really meant a lot. I'm grateful to all the folks at Horizon Bay for working so hard to make my Grandmother so comfortable and taking such good care of her, they really did a great job.

The staff at Horizon Bay was very nice, and the residents of the place seemed to happy in one of their gatherings that I observed. The woman that I interviewed at Horizon Bay herself was very pleased with the community but was a little skeptical about some of the cleaning offered by the place. She let me know that she often cleans the place herself. However, I was also told that they have game nights and various local entertainment acts that keep them busy throughout the week. The interior of the rooms at Horizon Bay were simple but seemed to be very sufficient for the resident there. Apparently, they also allow residents to take short walks around the facility which is helpful in maintaining the health of these individuals. Overall, I was very pleased with Horizon Bay and would recommend it to other individuals who are also planning on moving into assisted living facilities.

Holiday Disaster Giveway: Win a copy of I'M DREAMING OF AN UNDEAD CHRISTMAS
With one week left until Christmas, I'm counting down to the holiday with a giveaway! Much like the characters in Half-Moon Hollow, Christmas has always been a bit of a disaster for me and mine. We burn food. We ruin surprises. We break valuables. We define our history by Incidents, such as "The Year of the Flaming Stuffing" or "The Year of the Disappearing Nintendo."
One of
the emotionally traumatizing was, 'The Year They Shot Santa.'
I was 6 or 7 and my family was living in Mississippi. A lot of
our neighbors were very – let's say, rural. And considering that we were
originally from Kentucky, that's saying something.
Now, Shannon was a
school friend whose family lived down the street. Her dad, Charlie thought tricking
small children into trying chitterlings was hilarious, so needless to say, his
sense of humor was a little weird… and mean.
Apparently, he thought it would be an awesome prank to tell us that Christmas had been cancelled. Why?
Because Santa Claus had been shot in a post office robbery.
That's right. Charlie convinced me that Santa had been gunned down while waiting for
I was, of course, quite upset by the news and promptly burst into
hysterical tears. Did Charlie put an end to the joke and assure
me that everything was OK and Christmas was still on schedule? Nope. He sent me home.
So all evening I was quiet and glum, through dinner and bathtime
and bedtime. All the while, my stomach churning and I wanted to cry. I went to
bed, only to wake up at 2 a.m., screaming at the top of my lungs, "SANTA'S
My parents thought I was having a
nightmare until I tearfully confessed that Mr. Charlie had broken the bad news
earlier that day. Santa was dead.
My parents left the room to call Charlie.
To this day, I don't know
what was said. I do know that I didn't see Shannon all that much after that.
Mom and Dad had to confess that Santa had not been shot in a post office robbery,
it was because he wasn't real. They told me the whole story about parents
buying, hiding and setting up presents on Christmas Eve. I felt betrayed for
about five minutes before I realized I'd been let into a secret club of
"people who knew." And that I would be able to collude with my
parents to prolong the Santa myth for Manda, and later, my brother, Matt. And I
did, for years, and I made sure that when they were old enough, I was the one
who GENTLY told them about the Santa myth. I did not allow robberies to enter
into it.
To qualify for a
free download of I'M DREAMING OF AN UNDEAD CHRISTMAS, please share your
favorite holiday disaster stories in the comment section below. You must also
share this post on Facebook, Twitter, your own blog and other social media. I
will randomly select twelve winners and announce them on Dec. 24.

Hello, everyone. I am looking for any books you can recommend that feature any decent starship battles or other space action. I've been in and out of Trek literature over the years, but it seems like there's been a ton of new, high quality material since I last read Trek. Personally, I prefer the books that do not focus on TV series main characters, such as New Frontier, SCE, DTI and, hopefully Vanguard, which I haven't started yet. I am also really excited about all of the 24th century continuity post-Nemesis. I plan to read all the big arcs at some point, but for now I want spaceship pron. (I just got into Star Trek Tactics, Fleet Captain and Attack Wing, so I would love something to keep me going between games, painting models and playing with pew-pew noises.) I appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.
There's a space battle scene in The Art of the Impossible, one of the Lost Era novels, that has stuck with me. I don't remember how long it is but I do remember it jumped back and forth between both sides. And it focuses on non-tv characters. There's only that one space battle that I remember but I like the rest of the book as well. Vanguard has a lot of action in it as well. That would probably be a good place to start.
Star Trek: Mirror Universe: Rise Like Lions is an epic and features space battles. One can read it without having to resort to prior novels if you are not easy to confuse.
I highly suggest the Vanguard series. The USS Bombay's battle with the Tholians in the first book is probably one of my all time favorites. The series is also mainly focused on original characters, or characters that you did not see too much of on screen like Clark Terrell.
Yeah, the first several chapters of The Art of the Impossible culminate in a battle between Cardassian and Klingon ships, and there are a few other space battles here and there throughout the rest of the book. Thanks for the kind words, Ronny.
I plan to read that one. For some reason, it wasn't listed as one of the IKS Gorkon books when I went to buy them all. (This was also before they were all out, so I need to pick up Burning House, too. Thanks for the reminder.) I really enjoyed the Gorkon books I've read, but the prospect of a meatier Klingon space battle has me salivating. Thanks for writing such great stuff! @ everyone else, I've got the Vanguard books coming in, so thanks for the recommendations. I've added the other books to my wishlist, too. How much of the Mirror Universe do I need to read for Rise Like Lions? Also, is there a lot of starship action in the Destiny trilogy? And I haven't read Vendetta since it came out, but I would love to own a model of the Planet killer.
All Trek space battles I've read were pretty boring, told from the limited perspective of one of the characters. I like it when it's told from a much wider perspective, including (what in a film would be) exterior space shots.
That's because it's not an IKS Gorkon book, it's a stand alone story under the The Lost Era banner. It's about The Bretreka Nebula Incident that Bashir and Garak mentioned in The Way of the Warrior. Here's the description: If you have any interest in Klingons, Cardassians, or the era between TOS and TNG you seriously need to read this book. It also features Spoiler: a major backstory event for a TNG character the Khitomer Attack, which makes it worth the price for any Worf fan.

THE WORLD HAS BEEN INVADED BY ALIENS! It's up to a nerdy, lazy high school kid to save it!
3.83 / 5.00 7,132 ViewsWhat happens if 4 kids share the same birthday?! All-out presents stealing mayhem!
100&1 Presents is a 2-4 player game where each player tries to grab presents and kill the other players with the contents of the present. All the presents are nicely wrapped so nobody knows whats inside.
Whoever still stands on his feet at the end of the slaughter wins.
the premise is interesting, the kid with the most presents/who can survive bashing all his friends, gets all the presents. however, as with other Multiplayer games on this site, how can you play more than one person if you're a SINGLE PLAYER. MAKE A SINGLE PLAYER GAME, WITH AI OPPONENTS, AND INCLUDE A MULTIPLAYER OPTION. This isn't a hard concept to learn. that way, an entire group of people isn't alienated from your game. from what I was able to glean, being a single player running around and collecting presents which turn out to be weapons, you can only collect 2 before you are forced to use a present/weapon to attempt to blow up your adversary/ies.
it's got a chance, but forcing 2 people minimum to play this to have any idea of the full gravity of the game leaves a lot to be desired. i can only grade on what i have seen and experienced whoch wasn't that much.
2/5, 1/5 stars
it won't let me click start? also the multiplayer thing does really work when using one keyboard so yea. i didn't get to play the game (wouldn't work) so yea. no stars sorry.
You have to use your keyboard to start the game (press enter)^^
This game isn't so bad. It would be a lot better if more effort was put into it. The graphics are lame. It wouldn't be that bad if it was someone's first game. It has potential.
Hey, thanks. Yeah but we made this game in 1 month (we try to make 1 game each month). And we are still trying to get better at 3d modelling so ;)
Either way, thanks for your feedback, we appreciate it.
Good game, very fun, but requires multiple people at one keyboard, and I cannot see 3-4 players ever happening. BUT this must have took some pretty damn good creativity, nonetheless. And Idc what you think, this game has the potential to be great, especially if online multiplayer was added. Good game.
Hey thanks! actually you can play with multiple keyboards. But I agree that it is hard to play with more than 2 players on one keyboard. However we try to create 1 game each month and we didn't have enough time to implement multiplayer^^
Fun multiplayer but is a little bit too much for 4 players in one keyboard.
Very true. We were hoping some people would connect 2 keyboards... :D And possible give it an online feature if it proves to be fun enough.
