Rated 5 out of 5 by Elmo33 Friendly & Relaxing Stay!!! We stayed 4 nights and it was a very relaxing and enjoyable weekend. There was a mixup with our reservations the first night but the staff made the correction and we were in the proper class of room on the second night. We have stayed at the other big name hotels on Kauai but none come close to matching the friendliness and comforts of the Sheraton at Poipu. We've been staying here every year for the past 4 years and this year, we're planning to return in June and July!!! This hotel has almost 400 rooms but the way it's laid out, it feels like is a small and quaint hotel with 100 plus rooms. If you're looking for a cozy and comfortable hotel, this is the place for you!! February 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Duffman GREAT RESORT Everything about the hotel resort was EXCELLENT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..We had to leave early because the weather was an absolute NIGHTMARE and there were no RAINY WEATHER ACTIVITIES planned at the hotel... We will stay at the Kauai Sheraton again when we return to Kauai when we're sure of the weather conditions........I can't say enough about the staff, they were THE BEST.. February 17, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Tshan Great hotel - not so great policies This Sheraton was beautiful and romantic - on the ocean, and most of the staff were outstanding. Your beach activities staff went beyond expectations, so friendly and helpful. Room was comfy but for this much money - I would expect bug-free ( ants and little flies from broken door. Only response from staff was "I'm sorry"). My real complaint is "hold policy" of over $100 per day after room is paid, and not being told this upon booking or check in. That is a lot of money to be "held" and not available for your vacation stay. Not only hotel but coffee at Starbucks/lobby and a $20 hold on card? At least inform people ahead of time. I felt like a criminal putting down a deposit because I might steal something. Will not return for this reason, could get a condo at a much cheaper price and not have my money on hold. February 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by FinnandGauge Awesome beach!!! Great Resort!! Sheraton Kauai in Poipu was such a great location, and spot. Everything you may need is right here!! The Staff was very kind, and helpful. Room was very clean, and housekeeping worked around our son's sleep schedule. The workout facility was great, and the view was second to none. Whale watching from our lanai, and the beach at the resort was perfect for swim/surf/snorkeling. The pool was great, and so much to do nearby if you wish to explore!!! February 17, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Leslie77 Nice location but not what I bargained for I had hoped service would improve after renovation. Check-in took more than 30 minutes. The ocean front room I was told I would get using my Starwood points never materialized. Our room was as far away from the ocean as you could get, and you could barely see it if you squinted between the buildings in front. There was no clear map of amenities. The staff seemed unaware of the different restaurants on site. The restaurant Rum Fire was excellent, however. February 16, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by UB0423 hotel with great location friendly service all around; what we did not like is the fact that everyday we had to call for something, like wash cloth, shampoo, hand towels, coffee cups... something was always missing. False alarm was scary and no notification that it was a false alarm. Overall though nice property, nicely maintained. Misunderstanding with free bottle of sparkling wine. February 14, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Alex16 I specifically requested a king size bed and had to settle for two full sized beds. Rooms were small and with two full sized beds, the room felt even smaller. I complained to the staff and was moved to a room on a different level with a vaulted ceiling, but still had to settle for two full sized beds. Had to use the balcony for anything other than sleeping. Not a good fit for a husband and wife get away. February 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by beelover A relaxing Trip! Hotel Pros: - Nice facility with lots of outdoor areas to sit - Most Excellent Beach for swimming - Quiet rooms, very little noise from neighbors - Comfy beds with nice pillows - Very friendly staff - Nice garden setting with fish ponds - Hotel uses environmentally friendly containers/forks etc. for serving outdoor food&drink. Very cool! Hotel Cons: - Our Garden View room with 2 double beds felt crammed, awkward TV console/dresser combo took lots of space. - Not enough lounge chairs out by the pool/beach. - Not enough shade options available! The hotel could easily add 10 umbrellas to their poolside furniture. - Resort fee of $30/day??? For amenities that should be included in the room fee? Come on you guys, that's cheesy! February 11, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by BobMara Good location, many bars/restaurants within walking distance Great hotel, but i was not pleased with the mandatory $30 pn fee plus tax. Room was good, but very soft mattress. Also, no late evening bar or entertainment. Staff were helpful and pleasant. February 10, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by RMS26 Needs improvement Thought the Resort needed refreshing. Also, didn't seem to be up to the standards or the crisp service of other Starwood properties we have stayed. February 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by SheratonFan1000 Outstanding Hotel I have read other reviews that haven't been positive and cannot understand why. This was the best hotel out of four that we stayed at during our trip, and that includes places like Grand Wailea on Maui. The hotel location, staff, and RumFire restaurant were top shelf. We even cancelled a trip to the Disney resort on Oahu to stay here an extra three nights! I want to say thanks to all at this great hotel and to let you know we will return soon! February 10, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by RandW Inattentive staff, long wait to check in 30 minute wait to check in because only one person working desk. Refused to honor late check in as either SPG member or Delta Diamond member. Concierge desk also 20-25 minute wait. Went to Dollar Car rental on site and told to take taxi to airport and rent there. The property is nice but terrible service overall not what we expect from a Sheraton Resort. February 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Monkseal Room There was a small empty wine bottle in the robes that were provided when we got there. Pillows were nice but all the other bed coverings were a little cumbersome and no fitted sheets made sleeping more uncomfortable. Bathtub and toilet area was a little cramped. February 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by barb2014 Beautiful vistas at a beautiful hotel The Sheraton Kauai was the most relaxing place we stayed on our 10 day Hawaiian getaway. The staff was attentive and caring. The hotel is conveniently located and we were able to take road trips from the hotel to many local attractions. February 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sluggo2014 This hotel has a great location Great whale watching and snorkeling right in front of the hotel February 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JAKE2005 This is PARADISE This was our 4th stay at the Sheraton, and it keeps getting better. The kindest, friendliest people are working at the Sheraton, and the atmosphere is very relaxing. The activities are the BEST part, and the yoga teacher, THAIS and the hula, lei making and arts & crafts teacher, CHRISTY were so much fun. The proximity to the ocean is great, as well as shopping. RELAXATION is what the Sheraton does best! It's a taste of Paradise! February 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JSonghees Great Experience Every thing was 5 Star, from the staff, the facility and room. and the location. The Rum Fire restaurant staff were top quality as was the food. The brunch in the Lava Restaurant was also a pleasure. Our visit coincided with other family being there including our very young grand children. Thanks to the wonderful hotel staff for making our visit so enjoyable. January 31, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Snoopy25000 Great Value I have nothing but praise. We just had an ideal resort stay and everything went smoothly. The facilities and room were immaculate and the location right on the water is stunning. Most of all, we were so impressed by how genuinely warm and friendly the staff were. Other high end resorts on Kauai have a much more corporate feel, so I really appreciated the aloha spirit of the staff, many of whom were local locals. We want to come back!!! January 28, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Lopaka Gulp! Daily Resort CHarge Paying over $200 per night + taxes and getting charged an additional $31.25 per day as a ""Resort Charge" is an abomination and utterly ridiculous! Do we need to pass legislation so all these hotel owners include all fees in the rate? I will give my money to and support the hotels which do not charge "Resort Fees". January 26, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Grubfinder Needs some work Property is fairly worn, I was told that the rooms farthest from beach and front desk were the SPG rooms. Lets hope not, leaking AC had corner of rug soaked, worn doors, facility back there needed painting, just a beaten up property where I stayed. Breakfast buffet which Hawaiian quality hotels are known for was well below average for $25. Restaurant opening times were not well communicated, staff say one time, restaurant says another when you show up, just lacking customer service. January 24, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Shanz Disappointed Sheraton Kauai was very disappointing in terms of the room, staff and facitilites. The room and bathroom were old and needed updating. The cleaners kept changing my airconditioning settings! The wifi was terrible and would not work in my room and when i asked about it, reception said they would fix the problem but never did. My credit card was charged without informing me!! The pool was small and insignificant January 18, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by PT2013 NOT FOR EVERYONE THE LOCATION IS NICE THATS THE ONLY THING GOING FOR IT . DID NOT GET WHAT WE PURCHASED . TREATED LIKE SECOND CLASS CITIZENS FROM THE TIME WE SHOWED UP TILL WE LEFT. THE BATHROOMS WHERE JUST A LITTLE BETTER THAN PUBLIC RESTROOMS WITH WATER STANDING IN THE BATHTUB SMELT LIKE MILDEW CARPET LOSE IN THE ROOM I'VE STAYED IN NICER LOW BUDGET HOTEL'S LAVAS WAS VERY OVER PRICED IF YOU ARE GOING TO SERVE POWDERED EGGS I THINK 25 DOLLARS A PLATE IS EXTREME YOU CAN GO ANYWHERE ON THE ISLAND AND GET A GOOD BREAKFAST FOR THAT AND WAS SUPPOSE TO BE INCLUDED HAVE TO TALK TO MY AGENT TO SEE WHO WAS AT FAULT FOR THAT WHEN I HAD TO PARK ON THE STREET BECAUSE OF EVENT AND CARD READER WAS NOT WORKING THEY TOLD ME IT WAS AND ARGUED INTERNET WAS LIKE DIAL UP.WHEN SOME ONE HAS A COMPLAINT IT SHOULD BE DEALT WITH OR RESOLVED I WAITED TO HEAR FROM SOMEONE BUT I GUESS THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO EXPRESS MY FEELINGS I WAS CHARGED 31 AND SOME CHANGE PER DAY TO PARK HAVE INTERNET ETC. THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE INCLUDED AGAIN TALK TO THE AGENT BECAUSE NOBODY CARED I WOULD'VE LIKED THIS VACATION TO BE UNFORGETTABLE. BUT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE IF I RAN MY BUSINESS THIS WAY I WOULD BE OUT OF BUSINESS January 1, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Daralph Great location, enough room for individuality We had a wonderful Week in The Sheraton Kauai (Koloa). Nice location with beautiful gardens and lots of space.nice modern rooms with Lot of amnemities. Most or most important Services are for free and included.great beach and access in the hotel.monk seals nearly every day in the beach - perfect. January 1, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by W2013 Keep your hand on your wallet at all times. The people who pay the tariff to stay at the hotel are looked up as marks for increased revenue, not hotel guests. "Resort fees" over and above the room charges are "mandatory" according to the manager, not negotiable, and are levied for a package of worthless "amenities" that should be included in the room charge anyway. If the property wants that money, it should just charge more for the rooms and be honest about it and let the customer decide to book the room or not. The "resort fees" buried in the fine print and not explained in any way until it's to late are unfair to the consumer. Add to that the extra charges for basic beach amenities (not included in the resort fee), the $20 breakfasts, the $9 smoothies, etc., and the property becomes a poor value. That said, staff was nice, and the property was nice too, if only it were run by hoteliers and not accountants. Too bad. December 30, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by VeryGoodPointsStacey Old hotel in need of updating The Sheraton Kauai is directly on the ocean and can provide spectacular views. But beyond that, it leaves a lot to be desired. It's a very old hold and needs some TLC (aka renovations) I arrived at 4:30 pm and waited 10 minutes in line for the valet/bellman. The driveway was jam packed! The valet said to leave my bag in the car and come back to tell them my room number when it was assigned. I then waited 10 minutes in line to check in. Luckily the concierge was able to help me book a few dinner reservations while I waited. There was no SPG preferred check-in lane. At check-in I was told that they weren't sure if my room was ready. They had to send someone to check. I sat in the lobby and waited, and waited, and waited. After an hour of waiting I went up to the desk. It seemed that the girl who first helped me was gone and no one was following up on my room. The new person seemed dry unsure and needed to call housekeeping. That's when I got a little upset. The manager came out and instantly my room was ready. Amazing. She was very kind and apologetic that I'd waited more than an hour and gave me a credit to my room so i could have dinner on them. Very nice. The room had a great view of the ocean, but is angled slightly so you can see directly into the rooms of the next building. Odd design. The pools and grounds around the lobby and beach are very nice. The hotel is looted on both sides of the road. It's strange. The groups on the other side (no oceanfront) didn't look as nice as the main grounds did. The rooms are old. The carpet needs some massive cleaning. The bathtubs have permanent stains (rust most likely). The beds are pretty comfortable. I like the sheraton beds for the most part. Wifi is atrocious. It's really very slow and the speed varies depending on where you are in the hotel. The wifi in the room is not so good. Must be a Hawaii thing. The staff all are very friendly and genuinely seemed to care. Very different from some other stay's I had earlier in the week. I probably wouldn't return to this hotel unless I had no other options. It would be my last choice due to age of property and need of renovations. December 22, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by MauiD Needs improvement We checked into the hotel and everything appeared fine. The front desk people were very friendly and helpful. As we were about to enter our room, a worker just exited the room saying that he was fixing the hot water. That was agood thing. When we entered our room we read a notice explaining what the "resort fee" that we paid approximately $30.00 for included; 2 bottles of water. Being that our stay was for just one night, that was the only realization we would get from the fee. There was no bottled water. That was minor. In the morning I try to make coffee in the coffee maker and the used coffee pouch from the previous guest was still in the machine. That grossed me out. My thought was to draw a bath, get ready and call the front desk with my complaints. No hot water! I call the front desk and ask for the key to an empty room so that I can shower and get ready for my day ahead. The staff working the front desk were accommodating and helpful. I walked across the street to the front desk and picked up a key to another room and go to shower not knowing that at the same time, a worker drops off the bottles of water outside of my room. I wish they had just given him the key to bring to me instead of me having to go all the way to the front desk. I asked that the manager on duty to give me a call which she did. She apologized and waived the resort fees and other uncharged fees. They handled it correctly and professionaly, I just wish we didn't have to undergo all of the inconvenience. December 20, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Fritters Privacy Our room was not up to our expectations for the price we were paying. Other hotels have better construction than the Sheraton. I felt there was no privacy for us since we were able to hear every sound from the rooms on either side of ours. It was as if the walls were only a curtain! The bathroom was so cramped that one could not open or shut the door when seated on the toilet. We called for television service two different days, and on the second day the loss of reception was solved by switching the box with one from another room as there were no other boxes available. I felt the resort fee was unrealistic. There was no microwave in the room, we never used the tennis courts, or the ocean side pool, and the Rum Fire Restaurant was never available to us. December 18, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by bvt1 great location adequate - pool chairs uncomfortable not enough shady areas December 18, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 The island ambience of this hotel is great. This is a great get away kind of place. The staff are great ambassadors of aloha. The staff, location and grounds of the hotel is what Hawaii is all about. I would definitely go back again. December 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ZANE21 True Kauai Aloha Everything & everyone were wonderful. Our Christmas Party was a night to remember....perfect in everyway, especially the atmosphere and the hotel's outstanding service. This is the place to book your next party. Stay the night and enjoy!

According to LMT's 2013 Dentist Survey, lab owners are sometimes hesitant to raise their fees, fearful of losing the account. Yet 53% of dentists surveyed feel it's reasonable for a laboratory to increase prices once a year by an average of 3.3%. Twenty-nine percent think an increase—an average of 4.6—every two years is more acceptable.

Hey all,
Basically I have a main site, written in PHP/HTML.
I also have a WordPress blog that I want to appear "in" the main page. By that I just mean posts. It's fine when the user clicks the article it takes them back to the WP blog, also fine that everything is managed as usual from the blog.
Just wondering if there is a way to do this. Thanks in advance. :)

Surfing Goes To The Dogs In Del Mar, Calif.
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. Delmar is one of the most popular surfing spots here in southern California. And yesterday it went to the dogs with the Seventh Annual Dog Surfing competition. Hundreds of canines and their owners paddled out. And then the dogs rode the surfboards back to shore. The North County Times reports the event may have set a record with 14 dogs riding the same wave. And it may have, since there are no dog surfing records. It's MORNING EDITION.

Former Red Eye co-host Bill Schulz has a piece today at The Daily Beast where he jokingly (?) compares the Tea Party political movement to the Scientology cult.

On Monday, the Washington Post's Sandhya Somashekhar zeroed in on the "unabashed approach" of Carafem, Washington, DC's latest abortion center, which, in her words, "reflects a new push to destigmatize the nation's most controversial medical procedure by talking about it openly and unapologetically." Somashekhar, the liberal newspaper's "social change" reporter, spotlighted how the upstart "aims to feel more like a spa than a medical clinic."

Tim Russert used to say "If it's Sunday, it's Meet the Press." Of David Brooks, we might joke, "If it's Friday, Brooks is bashing Ted Cruz." On both NPR and PBS Friday, the purported conservative-leaning balance to public broadcasting's natural socialist impulses insisted the problem was that Cruz was just too smart.
On NPR's All Things Considered, the headline for the week-in-politics segment was "Sen. Harry Reid's Retirement, Cruz's Appeal To Far-Right."

A new digital short is blasting Indiana as a state full of bigots. In the style of a tourism ad, the parody shows images of all things Indiana is famous for, from it's "world class cities" to its NFL team to the Indianapolis 500. The narrator's voice croons, "That hoosier hospitality makes everyone welcome --especially, bigots! Whether you're a family of bigots, a couple of bigots or just an individual bigot" the ad claims, you can "shame and humiliate people who are different from you to your heart's content." The ad cites the newly-signed bill, "Religious Freedom Restoration Act" as the reason bigots live in Indiana.
This ad isn't just from a random Youtube user. The parody comes from "Internet Action Force" (IAF), a new digital shorts website launched by the New York Post. According to local news site Capital New York, IAF is run by a gamut of writers and comedians from left-leaning outlets such as Comedy Central, Conan O' Brien's TeamCoco.com, and Funny or Die. Senior Editor Nick Poppy even comes from working as a digital video editor for ABC News.

Ever since Colorado legalized in 2014, CBS This Morning has obsessed over all things pot, showcasing the best places to get high. On Monday, reporter Mark Strassmann touted a new app called High There. Strassmann gushed, "Think of it as Facebook or Tinder for stoners where nearby cannabis users can connect."

Early on Monday's NBC Today, fill-in co-host Willie Geist hyped "the growing debate over a controversial law that critics call anti-gay....[who] say it permits businesses, among other things, to refuse service to same-sex couples on religious grounds." Correspondent Gabe Gutierrez followed: "This morning a huge backlash against Indiana's new Religious Freedom Restoration Act and Governor Mike Pence is on the defensive."

At the Washington Post on March 18, fact-checker Glenn Kessler gave Secretary of State John Kerry "four Pinocchios" for his resume-puffing "whopper" that he helped organize "the first hearings in the Senate" on global warming in 1988.
In the process, Kessler inadvertently perpetuated a related myth and got called out for it. He admirably corrected himself this morning. Additionally, while assigning four Pinocchios for himself, he dished out four Pinocchios to "all concerned." That's a long list, as will be seen after the jump.

A new play aims to tell what the media didn't: what really happened in Ferguson August 9, 2014.
As the first dramatization of the Michael Brown shooting, Ferguson draws from grand-jury witness testimony to reveal the truth about the Ferguson, Mo. police shooting. The play hits the stage April 26 through 29 at the Odyssey Theatre in Los Angeles – and asks the audience to play jury.

On Monday's New Day on CNN, Daily Beast's John Avlon likened Indiana Governor Mike Pence's defense of his state's new religious freedom law to George Wallace's fight for racial segregation. Avlon asserted that Republican politicians "don't want to say they're in favor of bigotry. So what you get is that incredibly awkward stonewalling by Mike Pence." He added that "this puts him in the same position as George Wallace...by saying that...I'm not in favor of segregation. I never have been. This is about states' rights and the Constitution."

On Thursday, March 26 Indiana Governor Mike Pence signed the Religious Freedom Act into law, aimed at protecting private businesses from government infringement on their religious beliefs. Ever since, the "Big Three" (ABC, CBS, and NBC) networks have done their best to promote the bill's opponents, who insist that the bill will lead to discrimination against gays and lesbians. From March 27 through the morning of March 30, the networks promoted the opponents of the law over its supporters at a rate of 2:1 through the use of soundbites, quotes and arguments criticizing the religious freedom law.

Adam Davidson of National Public Radio lumped people who oppose illegal immigration with racists and homophobes (like his grandfather) in the New York Times magazine:
When I was growing up in the 1980s, I watched my grandfather -- my dad's stepdad -- struggle with his own prejudice. He was a blue-collar World War II veteran who loved his family above all things and was constantly afraid for them. He carried a gun and, like many men of his generation, saw threats in people he didn't understand: African-Americans, independent women, gays. By the time he died, 10 years ago, he had softened. He stopped using racist and homophobic slurs; he even hugged my gay cousin. But there was one view he wasn't going to change. He had no time for Hispanics, he told us, and he wasn't backing down. After all, this wasn't a matter of bigotry. It was plain economics. These immigrants were stealing jobs from "Americans."

Media Research Center (MRC) and Family Research Council (FRC) are launching a joint national campaign to educate the public about a Disney ABC sitcom pilot based on the life of bigoted activist Dan Savage.

ABC on Monday continued to assail Indiana's religious freedom law, hyping the "firestorm" over a law that "many" say could "legalize discrimination." Good Morning America co-host Robin Roberts trumpeted "growing calls to move the men's Final Four and boycott the state over the new law that many say legalizes discrimination."

The most remarkable thing about Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid's New Years Day gym accident story is the complete incuriosity on the part of the mainstream media about it. Three months after the accident, Reid still can't see out of his injured eye, so why doesn't a reporter ask Reid when he will be suing the exercise equipment company or at least give us the brand name of the equipment that supposedly caused that accident. Speculation on talk radio and in the blogosphere about Reid's accident story heated up last week when he announced he won't be seeking re-election to the Senate. But from the MSM, continued silence on this topic.

The government's report on consumer spending released this morning was another disappointment. Seasonally adjusted spending increased by just 0.1 percent, falling short of modest expectations of a 0.2 percent jump, following 0.2 percent declines in both December and January.
The opening paragraphs of coverage at Bloomberg News and the Associated Press contrasted sharply. Longtime readers can probably guess which wire tried to portray the news more positively. Predictably, both outlets broke out the bad weather excuse.

There's nothing more annoying than waking up to a cluster of itchy bites first thing in the morning, but pointing bumpy fingers at ol' Fluffy in his dog box is not enough to rid your home of fleas.You see, fleas breed. And while your pet may have been the primary carrier, he - or she - is definitely not the last.Here are ways to de-flea your homeBefore you call in the pricey exterminators, try this DIY approach that promises to get your flea problem under control.STEP 1: Wash 'emRally your pets together and scrub them down. Use a good treatment shampoo and try to keep them away from dirt and sand – at least until they're dry. Invest in a quality flea collar and pest powder, and make sure that you 'dust' them down once every two or so weeks.STEP 2: VacuumI know, it's the worst job on the planet, but it really does help. Pay attention to dark corners and crevices, under beds, mattresses, carpets and for once, move your furniture out the way so you can clean properly!Why it works? Not only does the vacuum encourage the buggers to emerge from their cocoons, but the flea eggs, larvae and pupae that drop off your pets – and you – have only one place to fall... on the floor!*Once you're satisfied, remember to discard of the flea-ridden vacuum bag.Step 3: SprayUnless you know of a good natural remedy, use an insecticide specifically designed to combat a flea infestation, on all carpets and surfaces that your pets frequent the most.Insecticides can be purchased at most supermarkets and they're usually sold in aerosol cans, flea 'bombs' or foggers. If you're unsure about which is best, read the label and for heaven's sake, follow the safety instructions. Please.*Insecticides can be toxic to both humans and animals. Avoid any risk and treat your house when no-one is home.Tip: Use outside flea-control methods too because the effort you put into ridding your house of fleas is pointless if they can get back in via your backyard and surrounding areas.Step 4: MaintenanceAnd finally, the laborious task is over. But wait. Before you get too excited, remember that you may come across the odd flea or two for up to a month after you've treated your house. Why? Well, while fleas are still in their pupae stage (cocooned), they're immune to insecticides.Your solution? Continue vacuuming and repeat the insecticide treatment on both your animals and home for a few weeks longer.Fleas not an issue in your home? Are ants the problem? What can you do about cockroaches, mosquitoes and flies who invade your living space? Getting rid of them is as easy as clicking on the links above.

cleaning splatters on gas cooktop
Help!! I have just started using my first-ever gas stove. I cooked sausages and then spent 1/2 hour cleaning!The heavy cast iron grates had to be removed and the whole stovetop had to be degreased. Is there such a thing as a splatter protector for the rest of the stovetop when I'm cooking something messy? I'm hoping I haven't made a mistake going to gas from electric. This clean-up issue is huge to me. Any suggestons?
They do sell lids to catch the splatter. They are universal lids (to fit all sizes) and are made of a mesh that will let the steam escape but catch the splatters.
They also sell little pie pan type lids to fit over the other burners you are not using.
Buy a degreaser like Greased Lightning to clean up grease splatters.
Also if I am making a big messy production ofs omething like fried food for the masses or a big batch ofsjelly, I will cover some of the cooktop with foil.
If you clean up your grease spatters righta way they wont' become hardened....and any of the degreaser sprays works very well.
Linda C
thanks for that. I'm sort of wondering how to keep the other 3 burners and the cast iron grates from getting totally grease covered if I don't get the splatter screen on in time. (the family isn't always as careful)My old electric stove was much easier to keep clean on a daily basis. Maybe this is just one of those cases where I need to take time to get used to something new

The on-demand and rent-by-mail movie and TV show provider also grew its streaming subscriber base to more than 48 million consumers worldwide. It projects its international segments will become profitable this year.
Netflix Inc. has reached $1.066 billion in revenue from its streaming video subscribers in Q1, up 36.5% from $781 million in Q1 2013, it reported this afternoon. For the first quarter ended March 31, Netflix grew its global streaming subscriber base to 48.35 million, up 33.2% year over year from 36.31 million in Q1 2013 and up 9.0% from 44.35 million in Q4 2013.
International revenue from streaming continues to account for 25% of the retailer's total streaming revenue, or $267 million in Q1, a milestone it first reported at the end of fiscal 2013. Netflix offers its monthly subscription service to stream movies and TV shows over the Internet in 41 countries. In the first quarter, its international subscriber base increased by 1.75 million, for a total of 12.7 million foreign customers, the company says.
In the United States, Netflix added 2.25 million streaming members in Q1, for a total of 35.7 million customers. Domestic streaming revenue in the first quarter was $799 million, up 25.0% from $639 million in Q1 2014.
CEO Reed Hastings and chief financial officer David Wells write in a letter to shareholders today that Netflix plans to increase later this quarter the monthly price for its streaming services—currently $7.99 per month in the United States—by $1 or $2 for new members, depending on the country. Existing Netflix subscribers will remain grandfathered into their original prices "for a generous time period," the two executives say. "These changes will enable us to acquire more content and deliver an even better streaming experience," they write. The company tested the move in Ireland in January, raising the price of its streaming subscriptions for new customers by one euro to 7.99 euros, while allowing existing customers to keep their 6.99 euro-per-month subscriptions for two more years.
Netflix plans to expand into new European markets in the second half of the year, Hastings and Wells say, without giving specific locations. The company expects its international segments to become profitable for the first time this year, they add.
For the first quarter ended March 31, Netflix also reports:
Along with today's earnings, Hastings and Wells reiterated in the letter to shareholders their opposition to the planned merger between cable behemoths Comcast and Time Warner Cable. The move, they say, will make it easier for the combined company to charge consumers and web service providers unfairly for the speed and amount of data transmitted through its cable and fiber optic networks.
Internet businesses have been voicing their opposition to what they call such premeditated, purposeful inhibition of Internet access more publicly in recent months, following a federal court ruling in January that struck down the Federal Communications Commission policy known as "net neutrality." The policy previously required that all Internet traffic be charged at the same rate.
"As DSL fades in favor of cable Internet, Comcast could control high-speed broadband to the majority of American homes. Comcast is already dominant enough to be able to capture unprecedented fees from transit providers and services such as Netflix," Hastings and Wells write. "The combined company would possess even more anti-competitive leverage to charge arbitrary interconnection tolls for access to their customers."

Tramontina enameled cast iron
I see that Walmart has this at very reasonable prices and since the ss Tramontina seems to be well-liked, I wondered whether anyone has tried these. If so, are they holding up well, or chipping like some of the cheaper brands do?
I created a link in this forum a few weeks back (see below). I purchased the Tramontina braiser at WalMart and used it about a week later to make hunter's chicken. I'm sorry to report that after cooking on the stovetop, the exterior enamel dulled considerably. It also became "splotchy" and discolored in areas, as well. Thinking it was residue from the cooking gas, I cleaned it using the same method I use for my other enameled cast iron, no abrasive cleaners, just a Dobie scrub pad with liquid detergent. It didn't help, so I returned it hoping it was just that particular piece. Having the interior discolor due to cooking doesn't bother me, but I think the discoloration is from a defect in the application or firing of the enamel. I exchanged it for another one, used it again, and the same thing happened. Sigh. I have other inexpensive enameled cast iron and have never had this happen. Would love to hear if anyone else ran into this problem.
Here is a link that might be useful: Look what followed me home...
I bought the Chefsmate enameled cast iron dutch oven from Target a year ago for $40. I use it a lot, mostly on the stove top. It's still a pretty, shiney blue. I understand they are hard to find & you just have to keep going to Target until they get them. Lately, our Target has had the red ones again (past 4 weeks).
I also purchased an enameled cast iron piece at Wal Mart recently but mine is made by Lodge and is called "Lodge Colors". It is similar in size and shape to yours. I have used it quite a bit already and the outside has not discolored, but I am also cooking on a smooth top range so maybe the gas flame is causing your trouble. The price sure was right!

Optical Physical-Layer Network Coding
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Physical-layer Network Coding (PNC) has been an active research area in both information theory and wireless communications in the past few years. However, its application in optical communications has not yet been explored. This paper proposes and demonstrates a practical optical PNC prototype for multicast protection in optical flow/burst/packet switching networks. Different from conventional theoretical PNC studies, the authors' proposed optical PNC system does not require bit synchronization and can be easily implemented. Driven by the recent popularity of high-definition videos and data-intensive applications, a steady increase of data traffic in optical networks by 40% every year has been witnessed.

Union Minister for Corporate Affairs Sachin Pilot said on Thursday that Naxalites should be dealt with an "iron fist" and nobody should mistake the strength of the Indian state.
Describing the recent killings of Congress leaders in Chhattisgarh as "cold blooded" murder done with military precision, he said "Let nobody mistake the strength of the Indian state. You cannot talk on gunpoint. We cannot allow Maoists massacring people." "They (Naxals) need to be dealt with an iron fist and the government's two-pronged strategy of development and operations going hand in hand will surely bring results," he said. — PTI

Among the tangle of issues that seem to be plaguing our capital, immigration seems to be one that keeps floating to the top. Recently on our blog we posted about what H1-B visas are and how to get one and already there seems to be important changes to take note of. According to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), "effective May 26, 2015, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is extending eligibility for employment authorization to certain H-4 dependent spouses of H-1B nonimmigrants who are seeking employment-based lawful permanent resident (LPR) status."
Do You Need an Tax Attorney or a CPA? Here's What You Need to Know
I see or talk to my CPA about once a week. That may seem a little extreme, but it's because he's brilliant, he gives great advice, and because he's also my dad. Many times he'll talk about my investments, the stock market, or the upcoming changes in political policies and while I am interested, his vast knowledge and verbiage can cause my eyes to glaze over and my stomach to wonder if it's time for mom to serve dessert yet. (For those of you who have met with your CPAs for your tax appointments with the April 15th deadline approaching, you probably know exactly what I'm talking about.)
Should I Hire Independent Contractors?
There are a myriad of decisions to make on a daily basis for small business owners ranging from where he or she will get the biggest ROI with their time and funding management to how to best structure their business model. Another issue not to be taken lightly is the pros and cons of hiring independent contractors verses adding more employees to your payroll. What is the difference and which type of worker is right for your company?
What Small Businesses Need to Know About H1-B Work Visas
There is a plaque on the Statue of Liberty that poignantly quotes Emma Lazarus' infamous poem: "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me: I lift my lamp beside the golden door."
Mobile Technology Trends and What it holds for the Future
2014 was the year of Mobile Technology. From mobile marketing trends to the rise of the Internet of Things (IoTs), mobile applications hit the year big. This trend will continue as consumers will spend more time on mobile apps than on the Web. As consumers becoming accustomed and expect real-time, location-driven, context-specific user experience and engagement, companies must look to 2015 will hold.
UpCounsel Launches in the Lone Star State
We've polished our cowboy boots, brushed up on Keith Urban lyrics, and bulked up on our BBQ. Yep, we're ready to launch in the yippee ki yay state of Texas and we couldn't be more excited. We've been testing out the markets in Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, and Houston and we've quickly come to realize that our partnership with these outstanding attorneys is something quite special.
Net Neutrality: Should Internet Service Providers be Regulated?
In my mind the Internet reminds me a lot of The Hunger Games. There are a bunch of random people running around haphazardly in a cyber forest with access to tools they don't know how to use, spying on people who don't know that they are there, and at the end of the day, shots are fired spawning a whole new list of stories to be posted on Facebook the next day. There is character assassination, secret alliances, and online marketing Darwinism where the strongest campaigns survive. Now the FCC is stepping in to regulate parts of the relationship between Internet users and service providers. Is this stifling capitalism or protecting the consumer?
Snow Days: Are Employees Required to Go to Work?
"Oh the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful. And since we've no place to go, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!" The problem with that song (besides it being past Christmas) is that we DO have places to go, work being at the top of that list. The East Coast is being slammed by blizzards, high speed winds, and weather forecaster paranoia. Earlier this week the news reports predicted that up to a foot of snow would drop on Chicago, Cleveland, Massachusetts and the New York City area. One reporter even joked, "The only business that is open in this weather is Starbucks." That got me thinking: Does an employee lose wages or can they be penalized for not showing up if the conditions are hazardous? Can a company force employees to go to show up at the office during inclement weather?
How to Keep Great Employees
I've had a variety of great (and interesting) jobs over the past two decades since I've entered the workforce and I've learned a lot from both sides of the desk. I've also had the spectrum of amazing bosses from those who were Yoda to my Luke Skywalker to those who after one year I didn't just walk out the door, I ran away as fast as I could and left a me-shaped hole in the wall.
You May Subject to HIPAA Regulations and Unaware of It
On those unfortunate occasions where you have to go to the doctor's office (especially at this time of year with cold and flu germs swirling around like a Nor'easter), you have the confidence of knowing that your privacy is protected with the HIPAA Privacy Rule.

As you may recall, we're involved in a major federal lawsuit - defending a Catholic business owner in Missouri who is challenging the Obama Administration's HHS mandate, which requires employers to purchase health insurance for their employees that includes coverage for contraceptives, sterilization, and abortion-inducing drugs.
We represent Frank R. O'Brien and O'Brien Industrial Holdings, LLC, based in St. Louis. Our lawsuit, which marks the first legal challenge to the HHS mandate from a private business owner and his company, is very clear: it contends that the mandate violates our client's constitutionally-protected religious beliefs.
The Catholic Church has been very vocal in its opposition about the mandate. And, now Catholic Bishops are launching a new campaign for religious freedom.
The Ad Hoc Committee on Religious Liberty of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has issued a statement urging Catholics to participate in a what they call a "fortnight for freedom" - a two-week period leading up to the 4th of July - a focused time for prayer and emphasis on protecting religious freedom.
The statement is direct: "We are Catholics. We are Americans. We are proud to be both, grateful for the gift of faith which is ours as Christian disciples, and grateful for the gift of liberty which is ours as American citizens. To be Catholic and American should mean not having to choose one over the other."
And, the Bishops, in their statement, also focused on the HHS mandate, as a prime example of religious freedom under assault in this country. Calling the mandate "an unjust law," the Bishops understand exactly what's at stake here. Their statement clearly spells out the issue: "In an unprecedented way, the federal government will both force religious institutions to facilitate and fund a product contrary to their own moral teaching. . . ."
The Bishops also make a strong statement acknowledging the fact that religious freedom is central to the founding of this nation.
"That is our American heritage, our most cherished freedom," the statement adds. "It is the first freedom because if we are not free in our conscience and our practice of religion, all other freedoms are fragile. If citizens are not free in their own consciences, how can they be free in relation to others, or to the state? If our obligations and duties to God are impeded, or even worse, contradicted by the government, then we can no longer claim to be a land of the free, and a beacon of hope for the world."
Defending religious freedom. Now, more important than ever.

crabgrass elimination after broadleaf sprayed
I have 2 acres lawn. I moved in May and was unable to apply a pre- emergent in April. I searched for a combination broadleaf -crabgrass post emergent but the shelves were bare. So I applied Trimec 899 four days ago to eliminate broadleaf weeds. My question is can I now follow up with a post emergent crabgrass killer ( ortho weed be gone - crabgrass killer -methanaersonate) without overstressing and damaging the existing turf. Mainly mixed cool season grasses fescue and some bluegrass.
The weather has been cool and wet. max temp 75.
I want to overseed in the beginning- mid. sept.. ( 3-4 wks after the trimec application)
My first post and next year I plan on a pre- emergent in April but for now the crabgrass is going strong and I think it would interfere with my overseeding efforts next month.
Thanks for any help on this.
fangbuster: although I live in the south and have bermudagrass, I'm in a similar situation.
I have TruGreen take care of my lawn so they have definitely used pre-emergent, post-emergent (several times), whatever and lately I've been getting a lot of crabgrass, so I experimented using the Weed-B-Gone and spraying it directly onto some of the crabgrass.
Well, it died, and today I went to remove the dead crabgrass and ended up with a huge divot in my pretty lawn :(
I don't know if it was necessary to remove the root "balls" but they were everywhere... don't want to take any chances. I removed the roots by using a weed hound and by just getting hold of the root bundles and yanking them out by hand. Then of course I filled my hole with topsoil.
TruGreen said that the crabgrass will eventually die on it's own as fall comes around, but I just wonder about those roots!
Depending on how you reseed/overseed, the roots of the crabgrass may well get pulled out or chopped up. I have had decent success with cutting the post-treatment lawn as low as possible and then running a slit seeder over it to overseed. I believe the crabgrass (and roots) was largely eliminated by the combination of stress (from scalping), herbicide, and the blades of the slit seeder. I suspect core aerating would have a similar impact on the crabgrass roots.
Of course the cg seeds are still in the soil waiting for Spring 09...
I do have a Weed Hound and like it very much, but primarly use it on dandelions.
I wouldn't worry about the crabgrass roots. Just hit the crab grass with either weed B gone or round up. If you do use round up...be carefull, it will kill anything it gets on where weed b gone is more selective.
Either way, you can scalp the lawn and seed in a couple weeks. Leave the dead crab grass alone. If you use KBG you'll get germination all around the crab grass. Over the next couple of months it will rot away slowly and the new KBG will spread and cover over what is left of the CG and roots. By next summer, you'll never know it was there.
