No beauty bummer has raised more collective groans than acne, and within that category, it's arguable that blackheads are the most difficult to remove among all other blemishes. Worry not, however. There are steps you can take to treat and prevent blackhead breakouts, ranging from top-shelf products to at-home solutions.
According to the Arab Times, mixing equal parts of groundnut oil with fresh lime juice helps prevent blackheads from forming. Meanwhile, you can treat existing breakouts with masks made of fresh ground up fenugreek leaves or a paste of sandalwood, turmeric and milk.
Of course, these aren't the most tried and true methods, and if you're not willing to undergo trail and error, reach for an apricot scrub, facial peel or other specialized acne product.
Cellex-C Speed Peel Facial Gel combines exfoliating and hydrating properties to help reduce the appearance of blackheads and minimize pores. B. Kamins Chemist Clear Control Anti-Blemish Pads offer a more targeted solution to eliminate blackheads and imperfections.

Expert tips for cloaking those zitsWednesday, March 2nd, 2011
Ah, the age-old problem of blemishes – how to treat them, how not to touch them, how to cover them up with makeup, how to prevent them from happening in the first place and keep those suckers at bay for good.
It's not uncommon for zit-troubled ladies to resort to every trick in the book. Many of you, undoubtedly, have probably tried the toothpaste maneuver at some point in your lives. But believe it or not, sometimes the most effective way to conceal a pimple is really the simplest one of all.
A red pimple can be knocked out with a yellow-tinted concealer, so don't try to combat like with like. With clean hands, dab the product onto your blemish with a brush or your finger in a circular motion, and then add more foundation on top as you normally would – using your finger may seem counter-intuitive, but your body heat will help break down the concealer and allow the product to blend more seamlessly into your skin. Setting with translucent powder will help keep your makeup intact and prevent your skin from becoming oily.
Additionally, a makeup product designed to treat and respond to breakouts can be the perfect way to kill two birds with one stone. Murad Acne Treatment Concealer treats blemishes as it hides them and works to prevent future breakouts.
Skin through the ages: An everywoman guideThursday, February 24th, 2011
You know your skin is sort of a big deal – it is the biggest organ on your body, after all, and having an out-of-this-world glow can make the difference between feeling beautiful or just so-so.
We wash, we exfoliate, we moisturize, we tone – we drink our eight glasses per day in hopes of achieving that ever-elusive perfect, dewy sheen.
The older we get, the more we have to adapt our habits to our skin's ever-changing needs. That's why it's so important for women of all ages to be equipped with the proper knowledge to respond to the changes taking place in their bodies – the skin of a 20-year-old has different needs than the skin of a 47-year-old, but with the proper techniques, every woman can feel like a queen.
According to StyleList.com, "thanks to technology and all that we know about aging today, firm and glowing skin isn't something you have to leave behind in your youth."
That doesn't mean having youthful skin comes without its own bag of issues, however. Many 20-year-olds are still plagued with occasional blemishes.
New York dermatologist Dr. David Bank told StyeList that young women might look for gentle cleansers that contain alpha hydroxy acid, glycolic acid or benzoyl peroxide, such as Neova's Acne Cream.
As you get into your 30s, it's a safe bet you'll see less and less of the angry red stuff, but your skin might be less capable of restoring itself. This is about the time when blotchiness, dryness and tiny fine lines begin to appear.
To combat these dulling effects, Dr. Tina Alster recommends focusing on exfoliation and moisturizing, while Dr. Bank mentions that most of the stuff you used in your 20s to fight acne can also still be beneficial for anti-aging purposes. Retinol creams and glycolic acid are especially suited for fine lines and blotchiness, the news source reports.
Those who begin to notice signs of rosacea at this age are advised to avoid a self-diagnosis and to visit a dermatologist. Skin-care professionals usually have the most effective treatments for this inflammatory condition. If you do decide to self-medicate, you can use products such as Phytomer's Rosee Visage Toning Cleansing Lotion and Accept Neutralizing Cream.
Women progressing into their 40s may see a marked progression of the aging effects they experienced in their 30s "due to weakening of collagen and elastin fibers, loss of fat and muscles, and coupled with gravitational pull," Dr. Banks told the news source. "It's not surprising that you will begin to see signs of sagging eyelids, drooping brows and hollowness under the eyes."
The best advice is to up the strength of the exfoliation and moisturizing process, opting for subtle dermabrasion formulas with microcrystals and moisturizers with lots of glycerin. Bank recommends looking for formulas with anti-oxidants such as grape-seed extract or vitamins A, C and E, the news source reports.
Women aged 50 and over may begin to see more pronounced wrinkles as the moisture and fat content in their skin begins to wane. At this point, lathering on oil-rich moisturizers is a safe bet for the skin, which isn't as prone to break-outs as it was years ago. Alster recommends products with collagen-building ingredients, such as retinoic acid, and hydrators like hyaluronic acid.
Bank says there's something to look forward to in your 60s, which may bring skin less prone to hormonal fluctuations and a more defined bone structure. To prevent the dryness and itchiness associated with this age, look for creams with shea butter or serums with phytoestrogens, the news source reports.
Once you're in your 70s, you can leave the soap behind. Look for soap-free cleansers that will help you retain as much moisture as you can – adding a vitamin C serum can help you with sunspots. Cellex-C Advanced-C Serum will do wonders for blotchiness and uneven skin tone.
And if there is one thing that you do take away from all of this, remember to always put on sunscreen. Applying SPF 20 or greater can be your number one defense against aging, no matter what birthday you'll be celebrating this year.
Blast away acne scars with these expert tipsFriday, February 11th, 2011
As though having acne wasn't bad enough, some of us may have to live with unsightly scars following the conclusion of our pimple-ridden teenage years. Fortunately, you can properly stock your makeup arsenal with products and tricks to help you blast the scars away for good – or at least until you wash your face at night.
According to StyleBistro.com, "good foundation is key to hiding acne scars," but most formulas will work even better if you start with a primer. A primer isn't the same thing as a foundation – it actually helps even out the texture of your face while minimized pores and scars.
Next, the news source recommends dabbing concealer on with your fingertips, as the natural heat from your hands will help the product blend into your skin.
A good foundation will seal the deal, and StyleBistro recommends Giorgio Armani's luminous silk foundation.
As always, set with a pressed powder. A mineral-based powder such as Youngblood's Mineral Rice Setting Powder can be just the thing you need to create a flawless finish.
Consider your coloring when selecting a treatment for acne scarsSaturday, November 27th, 2010
While acne is often regarded as a teenage ailment, the skin condition can leave marks that affect many people for years after the blemishes clear up. But before you treat the scarred areas, you should consider your coloring.
"Fair skin usually ends up with red marks, while darker skin tends to get brown spots," New York-based dermatologist Anne Chapas told InStyle magazine. Different skin tones, then, require different types of products to combat the scars.
According to Chapas, women with olive skin and darker complexions should look for a product with two percent hydroquinone. The news source recommends Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel, which will fade acne marks while it improves skin's clarity and reduces irritation.
Gals with lighter skin should use an exfoliant with salicylic or glycolic acid. Peter Thomas Roth Potent Botanical Skin Brightening Gel Complex is hydroquinone-free and contains salicylic acid to even out skin tone. PCA Skin Blemish Control Bar (pHaze 32) cleanses and conditions skin while reducing the appearance of scars.
Since some products require a bit of time to work, you may not see results immediately, but a great concealer can help you mask the marks in the meantime. A green cover-up is ideal for red spots and a yellow concealer is best for brown and purple-colored scars.
How to combat adult acneMonday, November 22nd, 2010
While many people think of breakouts as a problem that plagues teenagers, blemishes don't disappear once you graduate. In fact, according to Allure magazine, acne can once again arise around age 35 due to hormonal changes.
Even worse, adult breakouts can even be more severe than those experienced in adolescence, because the blemishes tend to be redder and more painful.
While those who battled acne in their younger years may be familiar with how to treat the skin imperfections, adults may want to consider a new plan of attack before trying to eliminate their blemishes.
"Benzoyl peroxide [a common ingredient in acne treatment] can be too drying for adult skin," the news provider reports. "Instead, dermatologists recommend dabbing zits with a sulfur-based product."
Peter Thomas Roth Acne Spot And Area Treatment contains five percent sulfur to fight breakouts, as well as aloe vera to keep skin from becoming too dry.
Additionally, the news source recommends applying a hot compress several times a day to reduce inflammation and expedite healing time.
Of course, while you're waiting for the treatments to work, a good concealer is also key. Dermablend Smooth Indulgence Concealer SPF 20 boasts full coverage and is non-acnegenic, so it will not exacerbate your blemishes.
Switch up your skincare routine once a monthWednesday, November 17th, 2010
While most gals are prone to the occasional pimple, it seems that breakouts are more common during a woman's period. According to StyleList.com, many experts recommend switching up your skincare routine during your cycle as the chemistry of your skin changes.
Industry expert Ellen Holder told the news source that fluctuations in hormones stimulate glands to produce more oil. Increased progesterone levels lead to water retention, which can swell the skin and make pores smaller, creating the perfect breeding ground for blemishes.
"Wash with a cleanser containing [between 2.5 to 5 percent] salicylic acid and treat any pimples with a cream containing benzoyl peroxide," New York dermatologist Joshua Zeichner told the news outlet.
Bioelements offers a few products great for women trying to control breakouts. Bioelements Spotless Cleanser contains salicylic acid to prevent pimples yet is gentle enough to remove makeup, and the brand's Breakout Control can be used up to three times a day to zap zits that have already appeared.
Experts recommend using these products three days before your period starts, as that's when hormone levels begin to shift.
Expert advice to preventing blackheadsThursday, October 28th, 2010
There are few skin imperfections more frustrating than blackheads – they can be unsightly, hard to conceal and painful. Unfortunately, they are also incredibly common. Luckily, the blemishes don't have to be a headache to treat.
The first step is washing your face to prevent breakouts. Esthetician Lena Bratschi told TotalBeauty.com that women should use a a salicylic acid-based cleanser, such as Dermalogica mediBac Clearing Clearing Skin Wash, which will serve as antibacterial and anti-inflammatory.
After cleansing the skin, use an alcohol-free toner that contains totarol to close pores and restore your skin's pH balance. Bratschi suggests that women follow with an oil-free moisturizer that contains Hyaluronic acid, like Dermalogica Active Moist, which will deeply hydrate the skin.
The dermatologist also revealed that manual exfoliation is the key to preventing blackheads, and recommends that gals use a facial scrub twice a week (no more, no less). Dermalogica Gentle Cream Exfoliant will rid your face of skin-dulling residue and promote cell renewal.
Finally, treat problem areas with a serum such as Dermalogica mediBac Concealing Spot Treatment. The product contains niacinamide, which Bratschi claims is most effective when treating blackheads as it will decrease oiliness.
New study reveals teens with acne more likely to think of suicideWednesday, October 13th, 2010
According to MSNBC's Today, a recent study published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology found that teenagers who suffer from acne are up to three times more likely to have thoughts of depression and suicide than those with smooth skin.
"These kids have double the risk of having mental problems," said study researcher Jon Halvorsen, professor of dermatology at the University of Oslo. "There is undertreatment of acne in teens, and this shows it's important not to delay seeking treatment."
Halvorsen added that health care systems and schools should recognize the ramifications of acne, and that teens should be encouraged to seek treatment.
While there are medications that can be prescribed to combat acne, those suffering from the skin condition can also use topical treatments.
Allure magazine recommends using a cleanser twice a day that contains 2 percent salicylic acid or 3 percent glycolic acid, like Peter Thomas Roth Glycolic Acid 3% Facial Wash, and then, once a day, applying a formula that boasts at least 2.5 percent benzoyl peroxide, such as Dermalogica mediBac Special Clearing Booster.
Everyday beauty products that can multi-taskThursday, September 30th, 2010
While there are a seemingly limitless amount of products available formulated to treat almost every condition under the sun, there are times when you may need a quick fix. Luckily, there are a few standard beauty products that can do double-duty in a last minute emergency.
Running out of shaving cream can be especially frustrating, as you usually don't realize it needs to be replaced until you reach to use it in the shower. Instead of skipping the shave, simply lather your legs with conditioner.
"[Conditioner has] moisturizing ingredients should help the razor glide over your skin smoothly and help avoid razor burn," Marie Claire reports.
If you've used up your acne treatment and have yet to purchase more, toothpaste can save the day, as dabbing a bit of the product on a blemish will dry out the imperfection. However, make sure not to use a whitening toothpaste. According to the news source, these formulas contain hydrogen peroxide, which can irritate skin.
Additionally, some products can even be used to prevent a beauty emergency. Many people experience an eczema outbreak on their stomachs caused by an allergic reaction to the nickel in the button on their jeans. To protect against this itchy condition, the news provider recommends painting the back of the button with a coat of clear nail polish.

I have been buying the same mascara for years now & the last 3 I bought, I have noticed a change! I loved this mascara bc it did what it said and never smeared. Lately, it's been coming off on my face. I will be trying a different brand soon.
I am very disappointed with the product lately. I have use the liner for quite some time and i loved it. But lately is different. Is like watery and doesn't last as much as usual. To bad the product was change.
I bought this eyeliner 2 months ago and it is pretty awesome! I'm seeing reviews that show that some people say their isnt enough in the bottle, but I'm not really sure. I shake it a couple of times and apply. It's very bold and doesn't fade easily.

Arizona State loses running backs coach Larry Porter to Texas
Running backs coach Larry Porter has left for the same position on Mack Brown's staff with the Texas Longhorns.
"I'm just really excited to be joining what I think is the best program in the country," Porter said in a press release."Having the opportunity to work under a man like Coach Brown, who I look at as a legend in college football, is an honor and a privilege. He has done so much for college football and is so well respected. I'm thrilled to be joining his staff and to be a part of a program that I've had such great admiration for.
"The future of Texas football is very bright and being able to work with Coach Brown and so many guys I've known and worked with before is an opportunity I couldn't pass up. My family and I are really excited and looking forward to getting started."
Under Porter's guidance the Sun Devils had one of the Pac-12's better rushing attacks, as four players tallied more than 400 yards on the ground.
"We are very excited to have Larry Porter joining our staff," said Brown in the same press release. "He brings a wealth of experience and has a reputation as one of the best coaches and recruiters in our game. Larry has spent a great deal of time in the Big 12 and SEC and has a strong familiarity with our state and staff. During his time at Oklahoma State and LSU, he did a tremendous job recruiting Dallas and Houston. He also has worked with two of our current coaches in Bo Davis and Stacy Searels in previous positions and has been friends with Darrell Wyatt for a number of years, so that should make for a smooth transition. We're really looking forward to having him in our program."

So i thought it would be a good idea to have a better looking item display in your hero tab.
i made a example with my sword and helmet. it basicly shows to color rarity around the items portrait and gives a better feeling of knowing your items are badass.

I agree. Not really just with your idea, but the idea that the item portraits need a complete overhaul. They're often next-to-useless, not resembling the item they're supposed to be. They certainly don't convey enough information as-is.
Posted 08 October 2012 - 03:22 PM
Bump! anyone else got thoughts on this?
Posted 08 October 2012 - 04:28 PM
I definitely agree that the thumbnails need some work.
Also, I <3 that armor set - I use it on my Warrior, even at level 60.

September is National Emergency Preparedness Month, and National Grid Massachusetts showcased their procedure when it comes to preparing for severe weather and emergencies on Tuesday afternoon.
The company said after severe storms including Hurricane Sandy and the October Nor'easter, they have added new technologies and processes that they say will help further speed restoration in the future during an emergency.
"We've learned so many lessons about communicating with customers about our storm preparedness. This preparedness awareness month, we thought to talk to people about some of the advances that we've made, technology that we're now using and that our customers can use," said Marcy Reed, President of National Grid Massachusetts.
National Grid said the company routinely reviews and enhances its emergency response plans throughout the year.

What your help means to us
accountant new york ny
Refused asylum seekers are not allowed to work, to register themselves as homeless or to be placed in local authority night shelters. Many become destitute, struggling daily for food, accommodation and clothing.
- £5 will cover expenses for a weekend's hospitality for an asylum seeker in need of somewhere to sleep
- £17 will cover travel expenses to enable an asylum seeker to get to medical and legal appointments
- £20 will give a vulnerable asylum seeker a week's ASSIST grant to enable them to buy some food
"Of the people that ASSIST helps, if ASSIST did not provide them with limited financial assistance, then these people would have no other alternative but to be forced to steal food. This would mean more problems and work for the police."
an ASSIST client
"ASSIST is a centre for raising awareness. Many people have come to volunteer - students, refugees themselves...people learn about destitution. It is important to have interaction with someone who's destitute, very important."
Refugee / Asylum seeker volunteer
"I've volunteered as a speaker to raise funds for ASSIST. Before that I had no experience of public speaking - I was nervous at first but now I'm confident."
Refugee / Asylum seeker volunteer
"It helped a lot with my case that ASSIST wrote a letter about my support...ASSIST provided a letter about my volunteering and contribution to the community. This really helped a lot with my decision."
an ASSIST client
"ASSIST is part of my family now. I'm at peace. Without them I'd be moving from shelter to shelter every night, getting a bed when I could."

When Justin Finley graduated from Shelbyville High School in 2009, he had his sights set on the Navy and made good on his choice. In December Finley was named plane captain of the year for his unit, the VFA 213 Blacklions Strike Fighter Squadron.
Finley doesn't fly the planes, but does everything else to help keep them flying. As an AD3 plane captain, Finley performs technical maintenance on the Blacklions' FA-18F Super Hornets—the Blacklions' carrier-based fighter jets. His supervisors took notice of his work.
The award was given at the squadron Christmas party. "I didn't know it would be me until the last minute. I was definitely surprised!" Finley remarked.
The Blacklions were established as VF-213 in 1955 and are one of few Navy squadrons to retain their original designation. In the movie "Top Gun", the Blacklions planes were among those used in the filming with their distinctive logo on the side of the F-14D Tomcats.
Finley is currently training in Nevada and working on power plants (engines) and fuel cells. He has another eight months with VFA 213 which is stationed in Oceana, VA.
He has had one deployment to Afghanistan where they provided support for Operation Enduring Freedom and New Dawn aboard the USS George H.W. Bush in 2011.
Finley didn't just get to do the fun jobs, though. "I have done all kind of things from working in the galley on the ship to driving a fuel truck—all kinds of things in between."
"I get to come home twice a year: Christmas and in the summer. I hope to be back home in Shelbyville next month. I definitely miss the home town and hope I made everybody proud."
Justin is the son of Kevin and Julie Finley of Shelbyville.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Trotty Your food and rooms were wonderful The conference room was the best I have ever been in. Also the staff that served us breakfast and lunch were high quality. Of course, the food was very good. Thank you so much. Also those that worked at the help desk were the best. God bless you all! August 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Vajee This hotel was beautiful and inviting The Hotel was beautiful and inviiting. The rooms were spacious, well kept and the bed was very comfortable June 24, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Bunnyrbbit Good, but has some downfalls This has to be one of the only hotels that I've stayed in that CHARGES for wifi. Also the room service is way over priced as is the accomadations in the room. The hotel is beautiful and clean but you would figure with how much you were spending a night to stay there they would provide you with a little more bang for your buck. August 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kay05 Banquet food needs improvement The fish and chicken was too dry August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Aver Great hotel Sheraton Parsippany was the perfect venue for our Hindu/American wedding. Absolutely gorgeous and rooms and staff were outstanding. March 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by gewgaw The Sheraton Parsippany is Wonderful The Sheraton Parsippany has become my home away from home, as I stay there for extended periods for work. I cannot praise the staff enough for being friendly, professional, and always willing to go the extra mile for anything I have ever asked for. In addition, the periodic Happy Hours for SPG members are great fun, and the latest one last week for St. Patrick's Day was particularly good. My compliments to the chef for the delicious Beef Stew, Veggie Shepherd's Pie and Champ! The local beer selections were also very tasty. March 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MAC0615 Short Stop I enjoyed my short stay after traveling down from Boston late in the day. We were greeted by a cordial staff member at a very late hour. Accomodations were very comfortable and clean. In the busy morning, the staff took the time to ask about my stay and check me out with undivided attention. June 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Di828 Great Stay Only stayed one night but had a remarkable time. Staff was exceptional. Hotel & room was also outstanding. Would definitely recommend this hotel to friends and family. July 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dennis08 my trip the hotel is great. i especially appreciate three things...the fitness center (gear and hours), the front desk (Justin makes the place run and is very professional) and the Tipperary Restr/Bar. I'd like to especially commend Dan Bezaniuk for his excellence. I've eaten there several times, preferring to sit at the bar, and he takes great care to ensure the meal is perfect when delivered. May 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by henneyb Great hotel I attended a meeting at this hotel and found it to be very good. The most unusual thing was the food - it was amazing, particularly the past fijoli soup. Yum. There are nice walking trails around the hotel as well. July 27, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Thom4 AC so loud cant sleep with it on The room was attractive and clean. The AC was SO LOUD it had to be shut off to sleep which made the room VERY hot. There should be a mirror located somewhere near an outlet, perhaps at a desk or dresser for getting ready in a room meant for two people. There is not sufficient space in the bathroom for two people at once plus the humidity in there makes getting ready in the bathroom impossible. The AC does not come into the bathroom and the fan (?) doesn't do anything. The shower valve leaks and wastes water unless you are strong enough to yank it shut, but then it cant be turned out without the same strong person yanking it on again. nobody ever spoke to any of us (2 rooms) during our stay. Not one desk person or door person greeted or even made eye contact at ALL. very odd. The best part of the stay was room size. July 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by CB1110 Great Hotel We went there for a wedding and I was surprise how nice the hotel was and the foods are great too in the wedding. Love the view from outside of the hotel, my kids say it looks like Medival Times, except to me it was more clean and elegant. The staff was friendly too. The hotel rate was also decent to me for the quality of the hotel. Will definetly go back there if we are near that area. July 21, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by TMarie The room was large and comfortable The hotel was quiet, the room was large and the bed was comfortable July 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JagK Overall outstanding As always is with Sheraton Hotels, this particular Sheraton Hotel in Parsipanny, NJ was outstanding in terms of the facility, food, service and professionalism. June 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Monty This Sheraton is ideal for a relaxing break The Parsippany Sheraton has a very competent staff, the public areas are tastefully decorated expressing quiet elegance . The room accommodations are visually very pleasing and the furniture very comfortable. Most importantly, every thing was very clean. July 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MikeNKatie Another wonderful weekend Another great stay for us and our beloved field spaniel Katie at our home away from home. No better place to stay while visiting family in NJ. Staff is always attentive, facility is clean and well-kept. Weekend rates are a bargain, and free parking and breakfast in the club room clinch the deal. Katie gets happy feet in the car when she sees the Sheraton Parsippany. She loves the hotel, but especially loves the park, the trail, the pond, and the squirrels out back. We love this hotel. October 2, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Peaches28 Nice for families with children, great pools We (wife & husband, 4 kids ages 11, 9, 2 & 3 months old) stayed at Sheraton Parsipanny Sat into Sun with 2 other families/friends with children just as a getaway & for the children to enjoy the pool. I had difficult time reserving through the 1-800 # - they kept telling me they could not accomodate family of 6 & I had to book 2 rooms which was ridiculous. When I called the hotel main # I spoke with Chris who was very nice & said they did have rooms to accomodate 6 - 2 queen beds & a pull out but room had to be booked through 1-800 which kept telling me those rooms did not exist. Due to fire code/amount of people I had to get this type of room even though baby 3 months old. I finally emailed hotel - Justin got back to me via email & called me - he was great & assisted me with reserving the room. 2 very nice pools indoor & outdoor - clean, lifeguards were good - ran out of towels one day but someone came immediately with clean towels. Room was very nice although I thought they could have done a little better with cleaning dust & making the beds (comforter all wrinkled looked very sloppy) - also a folded washcloth in bathroom looked like someone had wiped there lipstick or makeup with it. Food expensive at hotel so we ordered take out. Kids really enjoyed themselves - hotel looks like a castle. Basketball court outside which we were unaware of otherwise kids would have brung basketball. I kept mentioning being SPG member but I felt like it didn't really make a difference. They did give me a small fridge free of charge which was nice for milk, water, juice for kids. Overall, nice getaway & we would go again. July 21, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by XX1X34XX76 issues Limited meal choices in restaurant and service was slow Difficult to communicate with some members of front desk staff July 18, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Zelda1623 Hotel a Little Overbooked We were very pleased with the staff at the beginning of our stay. We had reserved a room, and with the influx of people staying at the hotel for the weekend, they did give our reservation away. They gladly gave us an upgraded room at no extra charger. However, the hotel was so overbooked that there was no sleeping by me or my fiance. We had children running up and down the hallway all morning while we tried to sleep in on our vacation. We never said anything, and the staff never asked us as we left how our stay was, so we gave up. The room and accommodations were nice, but no way to relax at the hotel. July 18, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by WellTraveled1 The Hotel Bar Needs Updating I usually find the bar areas in most hotels a nice place for re-energizing, unfortunately the golf inspired bar in the Parsippany, NJ Sheraton was not up to par. I found the bar to be dark, and the music darker. I'm not sure if the "mood music" is chosen by the bar staff or selected by corporate, but this past Thurs, Fri, and Sat evening's selections made me want to gouge my eyes out! Please update this othewise great hotel's bar scene and mood. July 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by MikeCar 2 week business stay Value for money. This hotel is a safe place to stay. It has a wonderful mix of business guests with little tourists. The gym is the best you will ever find in any hotel! The staff at the bar is great, Joli the manager is bubbly & accommodating while Tom behind the bar gave every patron attention and made you feel like you were at your local watering hole! Tom made blue cheese staffed olives for our cocktails that were to die for! I will miss Tom & the other staff! May 11, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Alice50 Experience in Parsippany The meeting rooms were fine, clean, in general the hotel is good for events. although the day I arrived I went to have lunch at tha bar as there was another restaurant which was not opened. The waiter was very slow, could not explain the menu, mixed up our orders. The food did not have the quality I was expecting for the price. For the cost of the hotel, they need to have better chefs, and better quality of food. I was there for business and spend all day in the hotel, and I would expect for it to have the quality they say. so I would recommend th hotel for an event, but not to stay October 21, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by skiwater Beautiful property We attended this property for a wedding. All events were timely and the banquet staff was the best I have ever seen. My only comment would be a map possibly of the hotel as our events were scattered and when I asked the front desk agent I was told we don't have any but I could tell you. That was helpful but a property map with room names would be very helpful. July 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JM1234 OK Missing a safe in the room, windows don't open, view from room depends on room you are in. A/C noisy May 26, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by hk14 staff Hi I was pleasantly surprised by the rudeness of some of your staff. I had asked a question about the outdoor pool if its heated, since it was significiantly colder then the day before, and I was attacked like I asked the worst question, response was outright disgusting and uninviting. (they were like yelling at me, why would an outdoor pool be heated, the sun heats it, go indoors if your cold. WTF ) I watched as a kid by mistake peed on the pavement outside of the pool. and this caused 5 employess to come and embarrass the parents as if they asked the child to do it. the parent apologized, but it wasn't enough. this Chinese lady/employee kept yelling at the father, I DONT TEACH MY KIDS TO PEE ON THE FLOOR. over and over again. I mean really!!!!!!! is that the standard we live upto, to get harassed by hotel employees over a little accident, IN A SHERATON????? and I am not the only one that complained, im sure you will be seeing plenty of bad reviews on trip advisor etc..... July 7, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by vick2500 this hotel is very very BAD 1) the room wasn't ready 2) the staff are very nasty and the hotel manager is and stupide and tough too many polices you cant even move July 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by LL22 EXCELLENT STAFF Whoever is running the Front Desk should be awarded. They truly know customer service. The hotel is clean and very nice! I will defiently be back. May 19, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by LB123 Nightmare in New Jersey I am part of a staff that travels and teaches on conventions for dance. I frequently stay at SPG hotels and this by far was the worst experience I've had ever. The power in the hotel went out for hours which was the main reason it was a bad experience but beyond that, the staff at the restaurant and throughout the hotel were not accommodating at all. To get a salad to go, I waited over 40 minutes and there was no wait or anyone in the restaurant. Staff was rude and not experienced, I practically had to beg to get a bite to eat. I'm saddened by the experience I had here and it unfortunately left a bad taste in my mouth about the Sheraton enterprise. March 14, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Beatlefn83 Security need review I chose this hotel and location for my husband's 50th birthday getaway celebration, only to have the fire alarm go off after midnight, disturbing our sleep and warmth for an hour and a half. We did not get to enjoy the amenities since we had to sleep in to ofset the fire alarm on the coldest night fo the year. We both ended up being sick for Thanksgiving and unable to enjoy it with our families. We will not be staying at this or any other Sheraton again since all the staff could say at check out was an apology for the fire alarm. December 1, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MFrankfurt Staff and location wonderful My family and I returned to the Sheraton Parsippany as we have done frequently this summer for a two day get away. My kids love the staff and the grounds. During my stays I have seen too many rude guests who do not treat the staff well. That being said, I have watched the staff react and am amazed at how polished, professional and mature they are in their dealings with these customers. If you stay at this hotel, please be kind to the staff. They are wonderful and work hard to make your stay an enjoyable one. July 29, 2013

LAS CRUCES, N.M. >> Got New Year's Resolutions to improve your health and/or personal finances? For example, losing weight, increased physical activity, reducing debt, or saving money?
New Mexico State University's Extension Family and Consumer Science department is encouraging New Mexicans to join a national online program to help accomplish their health and personal finance resolutions. "The Small Steps to Health and Wealth program has two free resources to motivate Americans to achieve their personal self-improvement goals: an online Challenge and a 132-page workbook that is available for downloading," said Fahzy Abdul-Rahman, NMSU Extension family resource management specialist. To access the SSHW Challenge, follow the "Challenges" link on the Small Steps to Health and Wealth website at http://njaes.rutgers.edu/sshw/. First click on "SSHW Online Individual Challenge." Then click on "Register an Account," set up a user name and password, and download a simple one-page user's guide with instructions about how to proceed. Click on "My Account" and "My Challenges" and "Enter a New Challenge," and enroll in the Challenge titled "SSHW 2014 Non-Competitive Challenge." The second Cooperative Extension resource is the "Small Steps to Health and Wealth" workbook. Individual chapters can be downloaded for free from http://njaes.rutgers.edu/sshw/. A paperback workbook containing 44 worksheets is also available for $19.50 plus shipping. Quantity discounts are available. For more information about the SSHW workbook content and pricing, see http://palspublishing.cals.cornell.edu/. "The Challenge is part of 'Small Steps to Health and Wealth,' a national Cooperative Extension program developed to motivate Americans to take action to simultaneously improve their health and personal finances," Abdul-Rahman said. "The program was built around a framework of 25 research-based behavior change strategies." The Challenge is based on the performance of 10 recommended practices on a daily basis: five that involve health and nutrition and five that involve financial management. Ten points are given for performing each one for a maximum of 700 points per week. "The Challenge is a great way to convert ambitious New Year's resolutions, like losing weight and saving money, into daily action steps," Abdul-Rahman said. The five daily health and nutrition practices are: eat at least four cups of fruits and vegetables; get at least 30 minutes of physical activity; drink water or unsweetened beverages instead of sugar-sweetened beverages; track 10,000 or more steps walking with a pedometer; and learn something new about health and nutrition. The five daily financial management practices included in the Challenge are: save a $1 bill or more and/or pocket change; invest $5 or more per day, including automated retirement savings plan deposits; track money spent throughout the day; eat lunch prepared at home; and learn something new about personal finance.

Freda Payne Radio
The multi-talented Freda Payne is best known for her singing career, yet she has also performed in musicals and acted in movies over the years, and briefly was the host of her own TV talk show. Born Freda Charcilia Payne on September 19, 1942, in Detroit, MI, Payne developed an appreciation of music at an early age (due to such sultry jazz singers as Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, and Billie Holiday). Payne's own musical career blossomed soon after, as she began early singing radio commercial jingles, which brought the young vocalist to the attention of several music-biz heavyweights. Berry Gordy, Jr. attempted to sign Payne to his then-burgeoning record company, Motown, while Duke Ellington employed Payne as the featured singer with his renowned orchestra for two nights in Pittsburgh, resulting in Ellington offering the teenager a ten-year contract. But in both cases, Payne's mother turned them down. During the early to mid-'60s, Payne established herself as a fine jazz vocalist, touring the country with both Quincy Jones and Bill Cosby, and issuing a jazz/big band-based album in 1963, After the Lights Go Down Low and Much More!. In addition to a sophomore effort surfacing three years later, How Do You Say I Don't Love You Anymore, Payne enjoyed further exposure via appearances on such TV shows as Johnny Carson, David Frost, and Merv Griffin. But it wasn't until Payne signed on to the Invictus label in 1969 (headed by longtime friends/former Motown songwriters/producers Eddie Holland, Lamont Dozier, and Brian Holland) and issued the fine album Band of Gold that she scored her breakthrough hit single, the album's title track, which peaked at number three in the U.S. and topped the chart in the U.K. in 1970. Although Payne never enjoyed another hit as substantial as "Band of Gold," several other successful singles followed in the early '70s: "Deeper and Deeper," "Cherish What's Dear to You," "You Brought the Joy," and the Vietnam protest song "Bring the Boys Home." Further albums followed throughout the '70s, including such titles as Contact, Reaching Out, Payne & Pleasure, Out of Payne Comes Love, Stares & Whispers, Supernatural High, and Hot, which all failed to make an impression on the charts. Payne then switched her attention from music to TV, as she hosted her very own (yet short-lived) talk show in 1981, Today's Black Woman. The '90s saw Payne return back to music, as such albums as An Evening With Freda Payne and Christmas With Freda and Friends were issued, while Payne also landed roles in such movies as Private Obsession, Sprung, and Ragdoll. Payne continued to balance an acting and music career during the early 21st century, as she appeared in the 2000 Eddie Murphy comedy Nutty Professor II: The Klumps and the made-for-TV movie Fire & Ice, plus issuing an all-new album in 2001, Come See About Me. Around the same time, several hits compilations were issued, including such titles as Band of Gold: The Best of Freda Payne, Unhooked Generation: The Complete Invictus Recordings, and The Best of Freda Payne: Ten Best Series. Impulse re-released After the Lights Go Down Low in 2005, but failed to add any bonus material. ~ Greg PratoPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

Hi there,
Your theme consists of nothing more than a set of (mostly) PHP files.
You have to figure out which file the offending line is in and open that up in a text editor.
In the best case, you will see the line straight away and be able to delete it.
More likely however is that the file will include another file and/or the line you are looking for is generated by a PHP command.
Which theme are you using.
If you can post a link to your site where I can see the line you want to delete I don't mind taking a look for you (as long as the theme is free).
N.B. It's late here and I'm off to bed, so I won't be able to pick up this thread until tomorrow.

Depending on where it is, you can probably pull it out. Most likely its in your themes index.php, page.php, etc. If you have a good code editor you can probably do a search and find it nestled in the php files.

It's Wednesday, and you have six shopping days left until Christmas…
Weather: Gonna be a rough night. Today will be sunny with highs near 70, but the weather goes downhill from there. A cold front comes through overnight, bringing along storms and the chances of severe weather after about 4 a.m. Lows tonight will drop to the lower 50s. Storms should end early Thursday afternoon, and temps Thursday night will fall to the upper 20s.
Morris comes to terms with former chief. The town has settled with former Police Chief Brian Cochran, whom new mayor Joe Pylant did not reappoint after six years' tenure. Cochran will receive a payment of more than $8,300 to cover unused vacation time and "other matters," as Pylant put it. Cochran's removal brought protests from residents after the announcement last month; the mayor never announced a reason for his action. Morris is now taking applications for a new chief.
You can be a winner, too — again. Milton McGregor is again taking on Alabama's attorney general by reopening a bingo casino at his Victoryland greyhound track in Macon County. The casino opened Tuesday afternoon to overflow crowds, with about 500 gaming machines available at the opening; McGregor promises more machines soon. Attorney General Luther Strange has warned McGregor about the opening, while McGregor and the county's sheriff claim the new machines meet the requirements of the constitutional amendment permitting bingo at the track.
Sports: Indians take two. Pinson Valley is enjoying one of its best wrestling seasons ever, pushing its record to 24-3 after taking down both Mortimer Jordan and host Fultondale in a tri-match Tuesday night.

The Blue Devils beat the Wildcats in the third match of the night… Boys basketball: Mortimer Jordan improved its record to 10-1 with a 49-37 win over Oneonta. In other games, Gardendale defeated Pleasant Grove, West Point toppled Hayden, Pinson Valley nipped Springville and Corner came back to beat Oak Grove… Girls basketball: After opening the 2012-13 campaign with eight straight wins, Hayden has now dropped three straight after falling to West Point 60-45.

Hereford needs more "big independent stores"
1:00pm Saturday 2nd March 2013 in News
THE OWNER of a clothes shop in Hereford said the county needs "more big independent shops".
Cherry Savidge first set up her women's clothes shop of the same name 30 years ago, and has recently made the move from Widemarsh Street to East Street.
Cherry said she moved to 'keep things moving forwards' but that customers expectations stay the same.
"Over the years nothing has changed – people still want to see the same lovely quality clothes and good service," she said.
"Herefordshire needs more big independent shops. People love that intimate feeling they offer," she said.

but I think a store selling pricier goods is no bad thing. We have the cheaper end of the market, with supermarkets selling clothes,and Primark,not to mention all the charity shops. We also have lots of mid-range shops,like M and S, Next etc.Surely,the better the mix of shops, the better the general appeal?? Good luck to you Cherry,I hope the move goes well. Just one thing though, why are you moving from Widemarsh street? Are the business rates cheaper in East Street?Or are you fed up with tripping up the infamous kerb? Just in case Mizza is reading this - if ever there was a need for a" tactile crossing", this is it!!

Thats all very well but the clothes from that shop is soooooo expensive. I would love to shop from there but my wages do not meet the very high price of the clothes .
I try and buy from independent shops, but sometimes the prices are out of my range. I buy from Butchers and buy my cheese from the butter market when I can get into town and bread from Moores behind the butter market, but try doing that when you got a family.
I wish Cherry Savidge all the best, but I think Hereford is gone, done and finished, once the old cattle market is revamped i can't see any one wanting to go into the main city centre because there is not thing there. Saying that there will be nothing in the OCM to interest me either.

Why is it that a small group of people who have their hands on the levers of power can have such a devastatingly profound affect upon the traders of High Town and the citizens of Hereford?
I haven't got one single thing in common with Cherry or any of our other City traders. Bill Jackson, the Chair of Hereford Enterprise Zone has much in common with this group of people.
Like the traders of Hereford, he has created wealth, jobs and prosperity for himself, his family and the many people of Hereford who have benefitted from the drive, imagination and will to create a business and see it flourish and prosper.
As I have said, I've got nothing in common with those that I have described. I've never had the courage to create a business and give it a go. I've never created a single penny of wealth to help the economy of my home.
In short, I ain't got a clue how to generate wealth, jobs and prosperity to aid our economy.
Thinking about it, I've got more in common with bloody Jarvis because he's as clueless as me but much, much more dangerous and damaging to our future.
I've recently been described by Jon Jackson as a vociferous gainsayer. I've sat and pondered this description of me and others and on the face of it, it may well be right.
That said, for my own peace of mind I'd prefer to incorporate the word sincere into this description of me and others who genuinely fear for our future.
What would I like and wish for? I'd like Mr Bill Jackson to take a moment and rest his efforts relating to the new Enterprise Zone. I'd like him to wander through High Town and witness the decline of our home and use all his ability, effort and knowhow and get this bloody Council Leadership to start addressing the many things they could do to help the traders prosper and give them some chance of riding out this downturn in economic activity.
We need help. These traders need help. Our High Town is on the fast slope to ruin and nothing is being done to halt its slide.
A simple bloody thing like helping the Farmers Market traders is something that the Council could do.
What do we get? Bloody nothing. No imagination, no innovative ideas and no leadership.

I'm sure we do need big independents, but when they can't afford prime space and will have to compete against major chains on the OLM -.it's not going to happen

And think about it, everything that has been planned to be revamped on the East of the city (Broad Street, LeftBank) - the opposite side to the OLM - has been scrapped where as *pre-OLM* revamps on the West have gone ahead (Eign Gate, Widemarsh Street). Funny that aye.
Just more evidence that scrapping High Town and using the OLM to start from scratch has been the long term plan.
East street is no different. Besides, given how close the buildings are the best they can do is resurface the road, it's always going to be a back street.

Stopping all but emergency traffic from Broad St would make that area so much nicer.
Pavement cafes and all that. People quaffing espressos while gassing about the latest Dave St'Laurent dress or the upcoming Hereford United vs AC Milan Champions league tie.
They could pave the whole lot in lovely tactile pavements. I could roll around feeling it's tactility for hours and hours.

Seriously, the EU's aside, next time you're in town actually LOOK, we all talk about it, but you'll be amazed at actually how bad it really is. Commercial road end of high town is nothing more than construction and empty shops - literally! You have the Entertainer, that weird stuff on the floor shop and a betting shop. That's it!

Before anyone says it, yes I know they qualify for grants from the EU but they are so motivated.
Go up to the College and see who is on the Courses. Health & Beauty, Hairdressing, Plumbing. They are there and holding down other jobs.
A Health & Beauty shop is opening in St.Owen Street and a Hairdresser's and they will open more shops.
They are the next economic power in Europe. Poland and other EU economy's are out of recession and they are growing.
I admire them. We should ask them how to do it and follow their ways of working.

The only improvement I would suggest would be to take a stance on the important issue of tactile pavements.
Painful and annoying?
Possible trip hazard?
Nice foot massage while waiting for the lights?
Useful for the partially sighted folks to feel where they are?
Bring em on I say..

Holy Trinity member and Strib beat writer Dan Wiederer had a post on the Srib's Access Vikings blog on why it might not be a bad idea to pass on Matt Kalil and go after a 'playmaker' instead.
The argument goes that if the Vikings could find a 'serviceable' LT, I assume through free agency, then they could call that position filled and use the number three pick in April's draft to get young QB Christian Ponder (or Joe Webb, for you Spiderman loyalists) some weapons to throw to.
I couldn't disagree more, and neither could Tom Pelissero, apparently.
This isn't meant to call out Mr. Wiederer, but it just goes to show a couple things that are coming from the Vikings...or specifically from GM Rick Spielman.
Because it's Spielman that's saying that the Vikings don't HAVE to draft Matt Kalil if he's there. Never mind that he's about as safe a pick in terms of talent, because see, the VIkings could find a journeyman LT that could get the job done, use the #3 pick to draft a 'playmaker', and hoo boy, watch out.
The problem with that is that I'm not sure anyone believes Spielman. I'm not sure if Rick Spielman even believes himself when he says it.
Why? The Vikings went with a journeyman LT in Charlie Johnson after they cut ties with Bryant McKinnie...and it was...what's the word I'm looking for here...it was an unmitiagted disaster. If Christian Ponder or Joe Webb are to develop into a quality quarterback, they need protection. If they get it, they'll be good. If they don't, we'll have the next David Carr or Tim Couch on our hands.
Left tackles, good left tackles, are tough to come by. As Wiederer notes in his blog post, of the seven guys listed as a LT that made the Pro Bowl this past season, five of them were first round picks, and three of those guys were top 5 guys (Jake Long, Joe Thomas, and D'Brickashaw Ferguson).
The Vikings haven't drafted a tackle in the first round very often, but when they've had, it's been money. Ron Yary (1968) ended up in the Hall of Fame. Steve Riley (1974) was a starter at right tackle for 8 of his 10 years. More recently, Todd Steussie was a very good pick in 1994 and played well, false start penalties aside, earning two pro bowl berths. Korey Stringer (RIP, big man) was a right tackle and was just entering his prime before the 2001 tragedy, and Bryant McKinnie was a decent LT for almost a decade, even if he didn't fully live up to his potential.
If these past three seasons have taught us anything, it's that great quarterback play (Brett Favre in 2009) can mitigate a lot of weaknesses on the offensive line, but average QB play (Favre 2010, TJ, Ponder, McNabb) cannot overcome bad line play, and without a good line, your offense isn't going anywhere.
Kalil isn't as sure a thing as walking into a cathouse wearing a suit of $100 bills, but he seems to be about as close to that as you can get. I'll be stunned if the Vikings don't take Matt Kalil if he's there. Then I'll probably get really mad.

DURANT, OK - The dispatchers at the Durant Communication Center take calls and dispatch for eight law enforcement agencies, 18 volunteer fire departments, one full time fire department, and four ambulance services.
When every second counts, things can get pretty crazy in the call center.
Lacy Dillingham loves being a dispatcher at the Durant Communication Center, but it's a job that isn't always easy.
"You always have the calls, the high stress, high emergency calls that you try not to take home with you," said Dillingham.
Dillingham says the job is rewarding, but being a 911 operator isn't for everyone.
"Dispatching is a one of a kind job, it's high stress, multi tasking and providing services for the community."
"They may have 2 or 3 phone calls going at one time and a police officers, a fireman or EMS on their radio asking for certain things and they're able to multitask this," said Durant Police Captain, Mike Woodruff.
So far this year her office has taken 54,000 emergency calls that required a fire fighter, ems, or an officer to be dispatched.
"Patrol officers are on the front line between the criminals and the citizens but the dispatchers are the first of the front line and I think that sums it up for all the dispatchers," said Captain Woodruff.
So Captain Woodruff says they're working on some improvements to make dispatchers jobs a littler easier.
Like some online training with a national organization, and important updates to their web site.
Updates they say will cut down on unnecessary calls to the center and save dispatchers vital time.
"It's a win win for everyone, the training that we have either in house, or online, when instructors come in, it better prepares our dispatchers to help better serve not only the public but the officers that they've sworn to serve."
Dillingham says one of the most important things the public should know is as soon as you call them, they're already working to get help to you, so give them the information they ask for.
"When you're on a 911 call and we're getting the information, of course it's their emergency and they want someone responding, we are taking the information at the same time we're getting units in route."
Captain Woodruff says right now they always have two dispatchers on duty.
One for the Bryan County and one for the Durant Police, but their goal is to add a third dispatcher for emergency medical calls within the next year.

Guilt-Free Berry Trifle Recipe
"I am always cutting fat from recipes," says Elaine Alever of Saginaw, Michigan. "But when I was invited to a party where the hostess was diabetic, I wanted to take this trifle, a dessert she could enjoy."
- Sugar substitute equivalent to 1/2 cup sugar, divided
- 9 teaspoons cornstarch, divided
- 3/4 cup cold water, divided
