FREE Stay in Paris (July 2-6 ): Must Luv Dogs!

Hello J.Y. Fans!  My dear friend and her husband live in Paris and are looking for someone to dog sit while they are away in London.  You get to stay for FREE and dog sit...just need to fly yourself over there.  Here are the details.  E-mail dr_ariane_randall(at)yahoo.com if interested:

We will be going to London for 4 or 5 days from July 2nd to July 6th. Would any of you like to come to Paris and dog sit?

Our dog is sweet and easy to take care of.  Plus we live in the heart of Paris in the wonderful Marais neighborhood in walking distance of Plaçe de Vosges, Notre Dame, Plaçe de la Bastille, convenient to metros, Velib stations, etc.   Also, if you'd like to overlap with us, that would be cool too.  By overlap I mean: you could come here a few days before we left (or returned) so we could hang out, and then have a couple days on your own exploring the City of Light. In terms of accomodations: we have a Euroking size bed in the bedroom and a  Euroking size couchbed  (yes, it is comfortable!) in the livingroom.  So, you could bring a friend. Also, if you know someone else reliable and responsible who might be interested, let me know!

NYC EVENT (Wed, 4/15-Fri, 4/17): DIET COKE BRINGS THE HEART TRUTH TO VANDERBILT HALL

In an effort to motivate women to protect their heart health, Diet Coke is bringing The Heart Truth collection of red dresses to New York City as part of a national road show to raise awareness of women’s risk of heart disease. This exhibit is free with celebrity-worn, one-of-a-kind red dresses on display. Free onsite heart health screenings and a registered dietitian will also be available at Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall from April 15 to April 17. This year’s road show includes dresses worn by Vivica Fox, Hilary Duff, Jennie Garth, Katie Couric, Patricia Arquette and Ana Ortiz. Heart disease is the number one killer of American women, and while there is not a quick fix for heart disease, women can help reduce their risk by as much as 82 percent through a heart-healthy lifestyle, including eating right, being physically active, not smoking, and keeping a healthy weight. Check out the exhibit and spread the word about this fun and educational event. For more information about The Heart Truth, visit www.dietcoke.com.
