Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

On its 20th year, the organizers of Agrilink made sure that the theme would be timely and relevant, so it focused on "Common Service Facilities: Key to the Value Chain" it focuses on a wide variety of facilities from farm services to post-harvest, value-adding food processing and retailing facilities. These provide economies of scale so direly needed by small farmers and agribusiness entrepreneurs. The organizing committee chose Mr. George Canapi, President of the Agricultural Machinery Manufacturers and Distribution Association (AMMDA), Inc. and Chairperson of the National Agricultural and Fishery Council's (NAFC) Agriculture and Fisheries Mechanization Committee to be the overall Chairman of the event. His expertise and experience in farm mechanization helped in formulating a promotions campaign and a lineup of seminars which focused on the significance of agriculture's service facilities in harnessing productivity, reducing post-harvest losses and stabilizing the marketing process. A total of 322 companies participated in the exhibit which occupied 488 indoor and retail booths or an indoor exhibit area of 8,100 square meters and 4,000 square meters in the outdoor exhibit. A big portion of the exhibitors were local companies although there were also foreign companies from nine countries led by France, China, Korea, Thailand, Germany, Netherlands and Denmark. There were four indoor pavilions: the Korean Pavilion at the main exhibit others were pavilions from PHILFOODEX, OPTA and AANI. Aside from their institution booths at the main exhibit and at the retail area, the Department of Agriculture had 20 regional booths, BFAR had four while the Department of Agrarian Reform had two. Registered visitors were recorded at 20,823 while total visitors tallied at the gate were 27,518 over the 3-day period. Read more...

Jeremy Ebert puts name with Northwestern's best
By Tina Akouris email@example.com November 12, 2011 11:54PM
Related Stories
Updated: December 14, 2011 8:36AM
Receiver Jeremy Ebert etched his name in the record books twice during Northwestern's 28-6 victory over Rice on Saturday.
Ebert's two touchdowns gave him 10 for the season, ranking him second on NU's list for touchdown catches in a single season behind Dwayne Bates' 12 in 1996.
And Ebert's 208 yards were the third-best single-game performance in Wildcats history. Ebert is tied with Jon Harvey's outing against Michigan in 1982.
One of Ebert's touchdowns, a 90-yard pass from quarterback Dan Persa in the first quarter, was the second-longest pass play from scrimmage in NU history. The longest is a 94-yard pass from Mitch Anderson to Jim Lash against Michigan State in 1972.
The 90-yarder surpassed Ebert's 81-yard touchdown grab from Kain Colter at Nebraska last week.
"I haven't been able to do something like that since high school," Ebert said. "It's a pretty surreal feeling to be out there and just see green grass in front of you. At Nebraska, I was looking at the big screen while I was running. But in this game, I didn't really have that. I was hoping I was fast enough."
All-time best
The Wildcats' victory makes this senior class the winningest five-year class with 35 victories. The classes of 2009 and 2010 each won 34 games.
"It's special, and we're real proud of it," said Persa, a fifth-year senior. "But at the same time we understand we still have a pretty good opportunity to finish the season the right way [at a bowl game], and we're more focused on that than being the all-time leaders in wins."

Owner's son faces assault charge after pet shop protest in Orland Park
BY STEVE METSCH email@example.com January 30, 2012 6:44PM
Updated: March 1, 2012 9:46AM
A Lemont man whose father owns a chain of pet shops was charged with assault Sunday after he confronted a woman in a group that was picketing near the Orland Park location, police said Monday.
Jonathan Berning, 31, of 1 Cedar Court, was charged after police saw him approach a 49-year-old Naperville woman "in a threatening and aggressive manner," Orland Park Police Cmdr. John Keating said.
The group that was protesting claims that Happiness Is Pets, owned by Ronald Berning, also of Lemont, sells puppies that come from "puppy mills," or kennels where dogs are bred in unhealthy conditions. About 10 members of the Companion Animal Protection Society began picketing outside the Orland Park store, 15647 S. 94th Ave., at 1 p.m. Sunday. Two dogs from the chain's other locations died of distemper in recent weeks, according to protestor Dianne Arp.
Arp is the woman whom Jonathan Berning is accused of assaulting.
"He was waving his finger inches from her face and yelling and screaming at her," Keating said. "He ran at her in a threatening manner."
Arp told police she feared being hit by Berning, Keating said. Berning could be reached for comment.
Arp said Berning had been watching the protestors from a pickup truck. She did not know at the time that he was the owner's son.
"They were filming us with camera phones. We didn't pay them too much attention," Arp said. "The guy in the passenger seat (Berning) went into the store. The other guy started disrupting us by blasting on his horn. Then the first guy came out and was filming us. Then, for whatever reason, he charged up the hill at me, raised his hand and stopped inches from my face. It scared me. He was screaming, and the look in his eyes was frightening."
He was telling her, "You'd better make sure to back up what you're saying," Arp said.
The picketers were abiding by the law and on the public way, Keating said.
"Unfortunately, this individual confronted them in that manner," he said.
Berning is due in court at the Bridgeview courthouse Feb. 15, Keating said.
Ronald Berning could not be reached for comment Monday. Last week, he said the dogs' illnesses was "an extremely isolated incident" and said he doesn't think the outbreak originated in his stores or with the breeders that supply them.
"We could not confirm the origin of the virus, however, we believe the likely source was a potential customer's own dog," he wrote in an email last week.
The CAPS group plans to protest outside Happiness Is Pets again at a date yet to be determined, Arp said.

Awesome spring/summer/fall loafer
By B
from Baltimore
About Me Stylish
Best Uses
Comments about Kenneth Cole New York Key Item Suede Loafer:
It's tough to find a pair of loafers that can be both dress and casual. These fit that bill. With jeans, chinos, slacks they always look good. I personally like them most with jeans and no socks on a cool spring or summer day.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Sorry this item is currently sold out.
Please use this discount coupon for an
additional 5% off during checkout:
The Bic Nova 120 Windsurfing Board is the Nova for the kids. With just 120 liters of volume it''s a modern looking shape with fittings to match. The little Nova is aimed at kids who''d like to learn windsurfing, but on a board properly adapted to their size. The shape is derived from the one for the Techno 2/118, a board recognized for its performance, accessibility and maneuverability. The integral foot pad ensures ride comfort and shock absorption. The center daggerboard helps you make those first runs and the more centered footstrap positions enable you to learn funboard the easy way. And once you''ve mastered the basics, adults and children alike will be able to use it as a highly maneuverable, high performance funboard.
Hi, this is Kathy from The House, back again with the Bic Nova windsurfing board today. This is a great recreational windsurfing board, has an easy A foam deck, a very comfortable deck. Easy for beginners to get up on, won't get any cuts or bruises, very easy windsurfing board to ride. Shorter length than the old days with the older windsurfing boards so it's very easy to maneuver or turn. It comes in two different volumes. The larger volume is 210 liters that we feature, and that I would recommend for the larger person, 180 pounds or more, somewhere around there, maybe 170. And then for the smaller person, I'd recommend the smaller windsurfing board which is 170 liters. It's a real nice sized windsurfing board to learn on for somebody's who under 160 pounds. Easy to maneuver, and the windsurfing board accelerates fairly early, has a nice retractable dagger windsurfing board, has multiple foot straps. And multiple foot strap positions so you can put them for beginners in the forward position making it much easier to learn on. And once you pull them back, then it'll be a faster ride for you, and you will clean up earlier if you move them back. It has a cuttle fin on it, and it comes in a 40-centimeter on both sizes on the 170-liter windsurfing board and the 210-liter windsurfing board. It has a tow handle. If you get in trouble, somebody can put the rope through it and tow you to safety. The Bic Nova windsurfing board is good for many, many people. It also has a nice little unique feature here too. It's a little handle so you can carry the windsurfing board, very easy, great.

CORPUS CHRISTI - There's new information about the investigation into Specialty Compounding Pharmacy near Austin. Back in August, at least 17 people became ill at Corpus Christi area hospitals after they were given calcium gluconate that came from that pharmacy.
Today the pharmacy issued a statement saying they were not the source of the contamination.
The medications were administered intravenously by staff at Doctors Regional and Bay Area Medical Center. Two of the patients later died. There's a lawsuit in the works by those families.
On Friday, the Food and Drug Administration announced their investigation had found five kinds of bacteria in the calcium gluconate:
The agency recommended the company no longer produce any medication that requires an IV or injection.
Today we received a statement from Specialty Compounding. It states the FDA investigators found no trace of the bacteria, rhodococcus equi. According to the pharmacy, that's the bacteria behind the patient illnesses.
"The pharmacy's own testing similarly detected no Rhodococcus equi in its facility, in its products, or on its personnel. For this reason, it seems clear that Specialty Compounding was not the source of the infections," the statement continues.

The Lewiston Tribune reports today that former four-term Idaho Gov. Cecil Andrus, who will be in Lewiston for Saturday's Cecil D. Andrus Statesmanship Award presentation to former longtime Idaho Sen. Marguerite McLaughlin, D-Orofino, tried hard to convince McLaughlin to run for governor. "She was without question one of the hardest-working individuals in either political party," Andrus told the Tribune. "She always ignored the political labels."
Andrus said he regrets that he failed to convince McLaughlin to run for governor. "I thought she was better prepared than any other person to be governor," Andrus told the paper. "Had she run and been elected she would have been one of the top two or three governors the state has ever known. She has wisdom beyond her years. It takes a unique person to come from a little old lumber town like Orofino to raise to that level. She is a jewel."
McLaughlin served two terms in the Idaho House and nine in the Senate, retiring in 2000.

As a recent graduate of NC Wesleyan College, I am very familiar with life on the campus and the wonderful experiences that are waiting here for you. I grew up in Edenton, NC and came to the Rocky Mount campus to study Criminal Justice. I loved my classes, made lots of friends, and became involved in many campus activities. In fact, during my senior year, I was honored to serve as president of the Student Government Association! That was a very rewarding experience, capped off by receiving my bachelor's degree with the Class of 2012.
After graduation, I joined the admissions staff to help other students, like you, learn more about this great school! Choosing the right college is a big decision and I am ready to tell you all about NC Wesleyan that was so right for me!
I hope you will visit soon! I will show you around, answer your questions, and guide you through the admissions process. We are eager to help you with your transition to a bright future at NCWC!

How to Eat Free All Birthday Week Long
Hey there friends!
True Story: I've been an Absent Agnes. Sometimes, after I take weekend trips, I immediately hop in my car and drive an hour or two for work. And then I work like a worker bee and stay in a swanky hotel (which I'll write up soon, because it was a blast.) But then it's back to reality, the house a little roomier (minus one beau) and the laundry a little dirtier. It's times like these when I think that the best thing I can do for myself, and for you, my readers, is to share a (not-so-)secret secret! The secret is how I ate, for free, all last week. And that secret starts with a little thing called a Swag Bag.
Now, I know what you're thinking: Jordan, if you paid for the Healthy Living Summit (which I recapped here and here), you technically paid for the Swag. Well, if you're thinking that:
a) you're a stickler
b) you might be right, but just roll with me on this one.
Snacks from this bag are MORE than enough to serve as breakfast every day for a week (if not more!) There's coupons for cereal and yogurt, granola to sprinkle on top, Clif Bar, granola bar, nuts, you name it. So I'll admit, for breakfast, I enjoyed swag e'rryday. Maybe that's a cheat. I'm not mad.
For Monday lunch, I thanked my lucky stars I'd joined Moe's eWorld! If you sign up, on your birthday, you get a totally free entree, just print up a coupon sent to your email. You also get a little treat just for signing up. But I don't remember what that stuff is. Regardless, I picked up this taco salad fo' free!
Romaine lettuce, chicken, black beans, tomatoes, salsa, onions, cucumber, jalapenos (GOODNESS I always forget how hot they are fresh!!) and a little cheese, just for good measure. No need for dressing, the salsa takes care of that, and the salad is crisp, fresh, and tasty! I made my order, I handed the fellow at the cash register a piece of paper, and VOILA. And they say there's no such thing as a free lunch.
For dinner, I enjoyed a most-excellent Cajun grilled flounder stuffed with crab and drizzled with Pontchartrain sauce. It was served with grilled asparagus and black beans (I nixed the normal rice pilaf base).
How on EARTH did I get this freebie? Simple.
Rockfish Seafood Grill strikes again.
When I first signed up for their email club, I just did it to keep abreast of what was going on (since I'm there so frequently, anyway). Then I realized I got a free dessert just for receiving emails. Bread (as in croissant-bread) pudding with bourbon sauce, anyone? (yes, yes, a thousand times yes.)
Full of fish, crab, and birthday joy, I slept easy.
Tuesday lunch, very appropriately, was sponsored by none other than Ruby Tuesday's So Connected email club. Sign up, and you get a few more emails than most. But most I just delete without glancing at them. Come birthday season, though, you get a free "burger" with fries. However, the burgers include grilled chicken sandwiches, and you can get ANY of their sides instead of fries (They offer Spaghetti squash as a side!! WHO DOES THAT?!)
The chicken sandwich was topped with lettuce, tomato, bacon and avocado. The bread was really thick and tasty, but I still tossed most of it away. SO FILLING!
For dinner, I decided to go off the beaten track a little and head to Chapel Hill. School had just started so, of course, I spotted about a thousand Jack Rogers sandals within moments of parking my car. Despite my rampant shoe envy of the cult of co-eds, I had my eye on one prize. A meal from the infamous "noodles" courtesy of the Noodles & Company Noodlegram!
When you sign up for this one, you can get a BOGO coupon and then, come your birthday, pop goes the freebie!
Their Bangkok Curry is bang(kok)ing. Seriously, a nice little bit of spice (not too much), light, and the shrimp was cooked to perfection (well, fast perfection). I loved the extra crunch of the sesame seeds, and this was swell with my first pumpkin beer of the year.
For lunch… technically it wasn't free, BUT it was discounted from my favorite pizza-mobile, Klausie's. Coming from a food truck, I'll take it.
I already discussed my dinner of beers, appetizers, and THE GIANT ORGASMIC BROWNIE SUNDAY from my LivingSocial birthday crawl. What I didn't tell you, though, is that my LivingSocial adventure was FREE because I encouraged my friends to buy through my link. Best. Deal. Ever.
For Thursday, I'd recommend getting other people to buy you meals. That always works, too.
There were a number of other email freebies that I got emails for that I just didn't manage to get to (birthdays are only so long, right?) BUT for an excellent list, check out Goob's COMPREHENSIVE list at HeyItsFree!!
I hope that you, one day, can live the glamorous lifestyle of a birthday recession-ista (and moocherama).

wow girl you totally know how to work the freebie coupon system! props to you! you should dedicate a few blog posts to couponing lol!
August 30, 2011 10:12 pm
Love it! I generally avoid all those email sign-ups at restaurants, but I might have to start paying attention to the freebies! Seems worth it, even if it means a few more messages to deal with!
August 31, 2011 3:38 pm
Dayum girl! You're one smart cookie!
August 31, 2011 6:53 pm
I hear you on the free birthday meals, coupons, desserts. I sign up for all that shiznit and come December 30th {my fabulous day}, I'm eating for free on into the new year!! And thank you for reminding me that I need to get on some pumpkin beer. 'Tis the season!! Oh–and happy belated day of your birth! :-)

A beaming Prince William and his wife, Kate, emerged from a London hospital on Tuesday with their newborn baby boy, presenting the world with a first glimpse of the prince who is third in line to the British throne.
She then gave the baby to her husband, who, cradling their child, said: "He's got her looks, thankfully. He's got a good pair of lungs on him, that's for sure."
William added: "He's a big boy. He's quite heavy," and laughed when a reporter asked him about the baby's hair.
"He's got way more than me, thank God," he said.

(Immortal Necromancer)
MONOCYTE is a four-issue bimonthly creator-owned occult action-adventure comic by menton3 and Kasra Ghanbari to be published by IDW Publishing.
The story finds two warring immortal races ruling a scarred world where time has no meaning. Death (Azrael) sits impotent, quietly planning his restoration. He summons MONOCYTE, a forgotten immortal necromancer who long ago chose sleep in his failed quest to die. With a fatal pact sealed, MONOCYTE strikes out as Azraels vicious proxy.
Issue#1 is in the August issues of PREVIEWS and will be available in October with an incentive cover by Ashley Wood plus two additional stories by Riley Rossmo and David Stoupakis.
A fantastic new addition to the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Filled with menton3s beautiful artwork, MONOCYTE combines cerebral complexity and entertainment in one damn fine package. - Ashley Wood

Dr. Maya Angelou joins the ancestors
Detroiters remember a literary 'giant'
Beloved author, poet and educator, Maya Angelou passed away May 28. She was 86 years old.
In a statement, her family said they are "extremely grateful that her ascension was not belabored by a loss of acuity or comprehension. She lived a life as a teacher, activist, artist and human being. She was a warrior for equality, tolerance and peace. The family is extremely appreciative of the time we had with her and we know that she is looking down upon us with love."
Dr. Angelou had suffered from heart problems, according to her agent.
Two days before her death, she posted on her Facebook page:
"An unexpected medical emergency caused me the greatest disappointment of having to cancel my visit to the Major League Baseball Civil Rights Game ceremony. I am so proud to be selected as its honoree. However, my doctors told me it would be unadvisable for me to travel at that time. My thanks to Robin Roberts for speaking up for me and thank you for all your prayers. I am each day better."
Later that same day, she posted:
"And now we come to the day where we can honor the brave men and women who have risked their lives to honor our country and our principles. Our history is rife with citizens who care and who are courageous enough to say we care for those who went before us.
Citizens around the world are honoring Dr. Angelou for her bravery, commitment to civil and human rights, and her many literary works."
The Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit released a statement describing Dr. Angelou as, "A poet extraordinaire, an artist with vision, an educator with passion, a woman with soul fire, and a model American who illuminated so much in 86 years."
Born Marguerite Ann Johnson April 4, 1928, Dr. Angelou became a world renowned figure who inspired people globally with such works as her first book and autobiography written in 1969, "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings," where she tells of her tragic childhood and entry into motherhood as a teen. Her professional life spans some 50 plus years of publishing several autobiographies, books of poetry and essays, as well as acting in movies, stage plays and television shows.
Her activism led her to the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, where she was a coordinator and to Ghana and Egypt as a journalist during the days of decolonization.
She was active in the Civil Rights Movement as well as being an advocate for human rights. She worked with both Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. Although Dr. Angelou dropped out of high school she received over 30 honorary doctorates and since 1982, taught at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where she held the first lifetime Reynolds Professorship of American Studies.
1993, Angelou recited her poem "On the Pulse of Morning" at President Bill Clinton's inauguration.
In 2011 President Barack Obama awarded Dr. Angelou with a Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor.
Detroit educator, poet and former SNCC member Dr. Gloria House said Dr. Angelou was a powerful role model for women of her generation.
"The honesty of her character permitted us to know her and trust her counsel. I loved her for showing us how the warrior, the artist, the healer and teacher can be active, productive facets of a single character or spirit. I treasured the masterful way her writing and speech reached down deep in our hearts and inspired us to keep the faith and walk the walk. When she spoke, I felt the mothers of the church and the ancestors present," Dr. House told the Michigan Citizen. "With her passing and that of other lights — General Baker, Queen Mother Mabel Williams, Amiri Baraka, Chokwe Lumumba, Vincent Harding — we are witnessing the closing of one era in our struggle for higher humanity, and the dawn of a new time. I am grateful dear Maya will be present in spirit to help us chart the journey."
The Detroit Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History named its permanent exhibit And Still We Rise, inspired by Dr. Angelou's most famous poem, "Still I Rise."
Charles Wright Museum spokesperson Pam Perry said, Dr. Angelou's life in activism, the arts and education "guided us to a greater humanity, instructing us toward becoming a more gentle, wiser, and compassionate people."
The world has lost a giant, she said.
" Dr. Maya Angelou's towering integrity, wit, grace, perceptive wisdom, and generous spirit IS her legacy. She lived her life teaching the masses – humanity – and in death, she will do so even more, Perry said. "Her insightful and delightful poems are recited the world over, and one serves as a guiding title to our Wright Museum's core exhibition, And Still We Rise. Her classic autobiography, "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings," has touched the hearts and elevated the minds of countless people. She was a citizen of the world, a giver of good things, an exemplary public leader and private servant.We will long learn from her. We will do well by following in her path of compassionate and gracious living."
Rev. David Bullock, national spokesperson for Change Agent Consortium in Detroit said Dr. Angelou has taught us all that no matter the adversity "we too can still rise."
"Dr. Angelou will reign as a light for generations of women to come," Rev. David Bullock said.

Superconducting Super Collider Site
The Superconducting Super Collider Laboratory project at this site was canceled by the federal government in 1993, after 14 miles of tunnels were completed and two billion dollars spent. The project was directed by the US Department of Energy and was to include a 54 mile long particle accelerator loop. The $11 billion project would have been the largest experimental facility ever built. The laboratory buildings and much of the 17,000 acre site have been sold to private developers.

Why does knowledge continue to travel only from North to South?

Knowledges are created under institutional frames that connect them to power interests.

For those who enjoy the great outdoors, Flintshire is renowned for its fishing. The Sarn Mill Fishery, which is located in the wonderful Wheeler Valley, is within easy travel distance of all the major towns in the county. There are four lakes at the fishery; two of the four lakes are stocked with rainbow trout, the other two with roach, carp, tench and rudd. This is a great place to visit – even if it's just for the scenery. The Sarn Mill is surrounded by beautiful hills, wildlife and ponds.

Help about Administration rights on computer.
For some reason, when I try to do some administration changes, I don't think they go through. Today I noticed a folder in my hard drive that had a locked icon on it. Some big c1724734hds or something, anyways I tried to change it from Read only to not read only, yet it said I couldn't go through with it. I'm the only one on this computer, its my computer. It's wierd though because in my user thing it's saying I'm the administrator, am I doing something wrong here?

Disable WordPress Auto Update
Since about version 3.7 the WordPress Auto Update function has been included in all WordPress sites. The problem is that there is no way to simply disable WordPress auto update. (unless you have installed a new blog and you use the checkboxes to do so initially on install)
I think everyone should have a say in the WordPress (and plugin) updates that are applied to their sites. Not offering an options-interface to this critical feature on the part of the WordPress core development team is , in my opinon a step in the wrong direction. I understand WHY they added the feature, but I don't understand WHY there's not an interface on the user side to turn it off!
The scenario below happens almost daily to a client, if it hasn't happened to you, it could.
You begin your day by checking your WordPress Site and what? A white screen! You can't login and you can't find your hosting support. The blogger's nightmare. Now what?
Well firstly, if this has not happened to you, you can add this code into your wp-config.php file just above the line that says That's all! Happy Blogging! Just save after inserting and you're golden. No chance of having a plugin or incomplete update killing your site.
define( 'AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED', true );
If you HAVE an issue with the white screen of death, my advice is to get in touch here and let us investigate and fix your issue properly. There are a number of steps and missing any of them or not doing them properly can insure your site won't function at all.
Does working inside your WordPress installation 'freak' you out? Totally afraid you'll blow your site out of the water? Fear Not! We can help, just visit our Project Inquiry and we'll get you taken care of in a blink of the eye.
