Saucepans WITHOUT long handles?
I have looked at All Clad, Calphalon, Emerilware, Kirkland and everything seems to have very long handles. I find the long handles hard to use with mid-fifties arthritis and Carpal Tunnel in my hands. Are there any SS clad 1, 3, 6 qt. sauce pans out there that don't have such long handles? I like the all metal handles so they can go from stove top to oven, but it seems with the very long handles they might not fit so well in the oven.
I am use to shorter ones on my old Revere ware. I wish I would have bought the Revere Proline they had years ago, now discontinued, because they had dutch oven handles on all the saucepans not the long handles. Easier for me to use. Also I can just see me hitting the long handles when cooking on the stove top and tipping them over.
Any suggestions?
Clare, in a pinch anyone with a hacksaw and a drill can shorten and reshape the handles. So you might consider that if there's a design you otherwise like.
If you can't find anyone to do this for you, take the cookware to a machine shop and explain what you want done.
You might want to check the Wolfgang Puck line on HSN or TJM.
It isn't all clad, but has the clad bottom and many styles with short handles.
gardenlad - Good idea! I never thought of that.
canvir - Thanks for the link. They look good but do they feel good. I hate to order things sight unseen because I like to lift them, check the weight, balance and feel. I wonder if any store sells them? We live way out in the boonies far from any big stores without a very long drive. I guess I will have to do that just to check out all the different pans out there.
I did check out Target's Kitchen Essentials® from Calphalon® today and was impressed with the weight and the handles didn't seem quite as long. Anyone have them? Are they any good?
dmlove - Thanks for the input. I think the handles are shorter then some of the others. I was going to measure them but forgot. I measured my old Revere handles and they are 5". I wonder why the current trend is for longer handles? I could see using them on the big commercial stoves, but most residental stoves aren't that big. Even with my new Wolf I don't need really long handles, just bigger pots.
TJ Maxx has Wolfgang Puck pots and pans. I purchased a 10 inch chicken fryer there several years ago and it is one of my favorite.
Being of the "Senior" age I had problems with the weight of the new pots and pans line and did not find this fryer too heavy.
If there's a BJ's Wholesale Club near you they also carry the Wolfgang Puck sets. You don't need to be a member to shop there (I think there's a 5% surcharge if you're not a member but they're forever giving out shopping passes).
I saw some Kitchenaid pots yesterday in Marshalls that had the dutch oven type handles on pans the size of saucepans but there were red enamel on the outside with a nonstick interior. My mom has very bad arthritis & always used corningware exclusively as she couldn't grip the long handles on other pots. They go from stovetop to oven, true, but they weigh a ton & I'd be leery of using them on something as powerful (and luscious) as a WOlf.
Good luck,
canvir - We have a TJ Maxx over the other side of the Santa Cruz Mts. I think I will have to drive over there to check out a better selection of pots and pans.
sigh - I don't know if we have BJ's Wholesale Club locally. I will have to check. So are Wolfgang Puck good? I am thinking of getting the pots with the type of handles you describe. It is mainly the Carpal Tunnel that makes it difficult to lift and carry a heavy pot with one handle. I like the handles on each side, gives me better control and being able to put it in the oven is a plus.
And I have been waiting 20 years at this house for the kitchen remodel and Wolf. It was worth the wait. Now all I need is a good set of heavy duty cookware and I am set.
Thanks everyone.
BJs looks like an East Coast thing so I'm guessing that the nearest one to you will be father than the nearest TJ Maxx! Personally I am a big fan of the "helper" handle and usually use two hands for my pots & skillets regardless of how many handles they have.
My pots are by Cuisinart & the handles are long...almost too long for the dish washer. But the handles themselves are very comfortable in my hands. I have no cooking experience with the Puck cookware but I've seen pieces at TJ Maxx as well so you might be able to test lift some.
I hear you about the wait. We just finished the kitchen after 12 years of living with the existing, wretched kitchen & user hostile layout. One of the things on my wish list was a serious range as opposed to the EZ Bake oven that I had been using previously. Mine is an all gas Viking and I love it. Very simple, very basic & more than powerful enough for me. Also the least expensive out of all of the pro style ranges that fit my criteria
A friend received a beautiful big sauté pan with a long handle for Christmas several years ago. We were at her place for dinner the first time she used it. She preheated her (NYC apt) gas oven to some sort of high temperature, seared a couple of steaks on one side in the pan, opened the oven door with one hand, picked up the pan by its big long comfortable and cool-to-the-touch handle with the other hand, and found that the pan didn't fit in the oven! The steaks were fine - she finished them on the second side on top of the range - but she was disappointed that she couldn't use her new pan the way she hoped. She went back to using her old cast iron skillet for steaks.
sigh - It was between a Viking and the Wolf. DH just liked the Wolf more and he was paying the bill! ;>)
dmlove - I sent you an email.
velodoug - I don't know why they are making all the pans with long handles. What are they good for? I prefer my steaks out on the grill. One nice thing about CA, is we can grill all year long.
Have you looked at Anolog cookware? I have a small saucepan from their non-defunct "Professional" line, and the handles are regular in length. Anolon makes some decent cookware. I have the Sam's Club Member's Mark triple-ply all clad (whew!) cookware. It cost me less than $130 for an 11-piece set a while back. I do like it, the handles are comfortable, and it's very easy to maneuver. I do have arthritis and have issues with lifting. My enameled cast-iron cookware is a bit heay to use on an every day basis, but I do love the way it braises and slow-cooks.
mrsmarv - Thanks for the information about the products. I will have to go and check out all the different pots in person. That is the only way to tell if they will work for me. I love my enameled cast iron dutch oven. Even though it is heavy I can lift it because of the 2 handles. They should make more pots like that with 2 handles for us older cooks.
I purchased a couple Wolfgang Puck saucepans at TJMaxx for my DIL. She has a smoothtop and I've used the pans there a few times and they seem to work fine for what we cooked. I also have small and arthritic hands and like my Sitram but really don't like the long handles either. I have a Kitchenaid smoothtop range and they limit oven use. I do wish I had thought of looking for something with a helper handle also. We don't have a Sam's club nearby (yet) but the Member's Mark sounds good. I have some larger cast iron that I use and like, but the weight (and getting it in and out of my limited storage) is an issue for me now. I can now relate to my MIL in the earlier years commenting on their weight and I couldn't understand why, LOL.
gardenlad - I liked both styles and I think I might have liked the Viking grates more, it has been awhile so I foget. DH picked Wolf because he is an engineer and he thought it was constructed better and, like I said before, he was paying. Viking owners don't shoot the messenger.
nwesterner - Thanks for the information about the Wolfgang Puck pots. I will have to check them out. Cast iron is great except for the weight. What a drag it is getting old!
Clare...if comfort and performance is what you're after, go for the Italian-made Piazza cookware! Here's the website of one of their distributors. (Where I bought mine.)
Piazza cookware is mostly marketed to professional kitchens, but individuals can buy pieces as well. The cookware performs really well, and it is THE MOST COMFORTABLE cookware I've ever used.
Piazza offers saucepans (with long handles), but they also offer what they call "cookpots" (two short handles). The handles are BIG -- made of tubular steel, and welded onto the sides. There's absolutely no comparison with other brands like All-Clad when it comes to comfort.
The only downside I see is you don't often see these pans in stores catering to home cooks. If you have a restaurant supply house near you, you might be able to see them there. Otherwise, you can buy them online like I did.

ELIZABETHTOWN — The last month has been an introspective one for new Elizabethtown-Hardin County Chamber of Commerce President Rik Hawkins. He launched his candidacy for county judge-executive in early November, but when Tim Asher resigned as chamber president soon after, questions followed.
In the aftermath, Hawkins said he feels he has chosen the right path. "It's a fit that makes sense for me," Hawkins said.
The News-Enterprise
In a battle between two of the more highly regarded teams in the 5th Region, North Hardin made a statement Wednesday.
The Trojans jumped out to an early lead and closed strong in the fourth quarter to beat visiting Nelson County, 50-42.
The Cardinals were limited to just five points in the fourth quarter, while they were held to just 23.7 percent shooting from the field (14-of-59) and 14.3 percent shooting from behind the 3-point arc (3-of-21).

HARDIN COUNTY — The public will get a shot at landing an H1N1 influenza vaccination next week in Hardin County as community clinics begin around the Lincoln Trail District Health Department.
The health department now has enough vaccine that anyone older than 6 months can be vaccinated at the clinics, instead of only those in targeted demographics, said Wendy Keown, director of outreach services at the health department.
Afghanistan is an American issue, not a partisan one
I was quite surprised to see the results of Wednesday's online poll regarding President Obama's plan for Afghanistan. Half of the responders gave him a failing grade. And nearly another 20 percent gave him a C. It seems that we so easily make decisions based on party lines.

HARDIN COUNTY — A section of north- and southbound U.S. 31W in Hardin County will be reduced to one lane in each direction today as a crew finalizes barrier wall repairs near mile-marker 34 near the bottom of Muldraugh Hill.
RADCLIFF — Aundra Lett Jackson is a newcomer to the mayor's race, but she is well acquainted with the city and its residents.

The John Hardin High School football team, in just its ninth season, finds itself in Friday's Class 5-A state championship game in Bowling Green.

After recently losing out on a lithium-ion battery plant in Glendale that was expected to create about 2,000 new jobs and spin-off businesses and provide a possible boost to other commercial growth in Hardin County, the news last week of a 40-job pipe manufacturing facility coming to Elizabethtown may not have generated much talk around the county.
But given the economic times we now live in, the addition of any jobs here is a big deal.
And that a company is willing to make an investment in our community is a really big deal.
ELIZABETHTOWN — Unpleasant weather kept participants away from Tuesday's Heart Walk, but there still is a way for people to donate.
Attendance at the Heart Walk, which supports the American Heart Association, was way down because of wintry weather, but those who had donations to give can drop them off at two locations, said Barbara Edwards, the president of the local American Heart Association.

We stayed in riad shemsi for 4 nights and had a wonderful time. It was clean, light and really well decorated, with a pretty courtyard and a small roof terrace for breakfast, sunbathing or a refreshing mint tea after a hectic day in the souks. Noura and Mohammed looked after us so well booking taxis, restaurants and nothing was too much trouble. It is well located in the South Medina, 10 minutes from the main square and near many good restaurants. We will definitely be coming back.

Animal Picnic consists of Daniel Banker and Inigo de la Riera, two friends, music producers and djs with a passion for electronic music. Their idea is to create a project based on music duality. On one hand, a side defined as ANIMAL, which refers to all the fauna, disinhibition and wildness that combines with darker and more aggressive sounds. On the other hand we have the PICNIC, happy, impulsive and euphoric, that mixes in to create joyful dance melodies.
Their latest work can be found in labels such as ALMA SOUL MUSIC, BQ RECORDINGS, GROOVALICIOUS, VICIOUS MUSIC...and they have recently remixed for David Ponziano, M.L.P and Erreome, all of which are on their way to stardom.

Cities Offer to Pony up for Shorter Customs Lines
By Pat Bradley
A ski area in northern Vermont and several other points around the country want more officers at border crossings and customs terminals — and they're willing to pay for it.
It's not because the businesses want to keep anyone out; they want to make it quicker to get in.
Vermont's Jay Peak ski resort, the Miami airport and areas along the Mexico border in Texas are among those that want to keep trade and tourists flowing smoothly across the border.
They hope they get picked as part of a pilot program that would allow for alternative, supplemental funding of border-crossing services, including private money.

World's Largest Tropical Glacier Vanishing 462

I think the reason is that for most people, global warming means "global warming caused by human activity." That, of course, has yet to be proven. Alas, too many people take it for granted that global warming is caused by, and only by human activity and tend to insult anybody who doesn't agree with them.
On the subject of Global Warming, allow me to be the first Canadian to say YES, YES, AWESOME, FUCK YEAH!
Generally speaking, lower glaciers which extend below the elevation where above-freezing air temperatures occur, are more sensitive to temperature. [Kaser and Osmaston 2002] calculate that such tropical glaciers are even more temperature-sensitive than midlatitude glaciers. A warming of 1 degree C is sufficient to raise the equilibrium line (below which net ablation occurs) by fully 300 meters. As we've already seen, warming is by no means unimportant to the 20th century retreat of the Lewis glacier (Mt. Kenya) in E. Africa. In other cases, the role of warming is yet more clear.

About Merrell:
If you don't own a life-changing pair of boots, chances are you don't own a pair by Merrell. Once labeled the "most comfortable and functional boots in North America", Merrell has spent over thirty years living up to this declaration by helping lead the rugged footwear industry, determined to make the best shoe for any occasion.
From the start of their humble beginnings in 1981, founder R.J. Merrell had the singular goal of making the best possible hiking boot possible. Already renowned for his boot-making ability, his new company afforded him the ability to provide an affordable product and push it nationwide, eventually going global in the late '80s.
Not content to rest on their perfectly-crafted boot laurels, Merrell created the Aftersport category in 1998, signaling a sea change in the casual shoe class. The Jungle Moc is the spearhead of this new category, providing a more casual and comfortable alternative without sacrificing the rugged character that Merrell is known for. Indeed, these boots are made for walking (Ugh. Sorry).
Today, the Merrell brand has grown to encompass all sorts of apparel, leaving you in command no matter what your environment. Partnerships with brands like Vibram and development of new technologies like Qform mean Merrell is constantly pushing to stand at the forefront of outdoor attire. Be ready for adventure. Merrell has you covered.

Soldering but can't get pipe dry
One of the shut off valves for my sprinklers cracked. I am soldering in a new one but I cannot get the pipe dry.
I read you can use bread and shove it in the pipe but I am concerned this will push a chunk of bread into my vacuum breaker????
Help. Thanks
Ok, it worked for the faucet. The next project requires me to put in a "T" and both ends will be at freeze proof spigots. So how can I do that without blowing bread into the spigots?
I am thinking about sweating it all except using a "shark bite" for that tee???
A trick I've used plenty of times is vacuuming out the water pipe with a wet vac.
It works if you can get an air break into the line (say by opening a faucet someplace).
By the time the line fills back up with water, I have the joint soldered.
I've never used the bread trick - although I've heard about it.
BTW: This is why God made ball valves - for positive shut off years after they've been installed. Clearly someone else was responsible for gate valves - quite possibly my ex.

Giant Banks Take Over Real Economy As Well As Financial System … Enabling Manipulation On a Vast Scale
Top economists, financial experts and bankers say that the big banks are too large … and their very size is threatening the economy. They say we need to break up the big banks to stabilize the economy. They say that too much interconnectedness leads to financial instability.
But – as shown below – the big banks are getting bigger and bigger … and getting into ever more interconnected markets.
Indeed, big banks aren't even really acting like banks anymore. Big banks do very little traditional banking, since most of their business is from financial speculation. For example, we noted in 2010 that less than 10% of Bank of America's assets come from traditional banking deposits.
The big banks are manipulating every market. They're also taking over important aspects of the physical economy, including uranium mining, petroleum products, aluminum, ownership and operation of airports, toll roads, ports, and electricity.
And they are using these physical assets to massively manipulate commodities prices … scalping consumers of many billions of dollars each year. More from Matt Taibbi, FDL and Elizabeth Warren.
A 2-year bipartisan probe by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations has shined a light on this problem, culminating in a new 400-page report.
Senator Levin – the Chair of Subcommittee – summarizes the findings from the investigation:
"Wall Street's massive involvement in physical commodities puts our economy, our manufacturers and the integrity of our markets at risk," said Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., the subcommittee's chairman. "It's time to restore the separation between banking and commerce and to prevent Wall Street from using nonpublic information to profit at the expense of industry and consumers."
"Banks have been involved in the trade and ownership of physical commodities for a number of years, but have recently increased their participation in new ways," said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. "This subcommittee's hearing is an opportunity to examine that involvement, determine whether it gives rise to excessive risk, and identify potential causes for concern that warrant further oversight by Congress and financial regulators."
One focus for the subcommittee is the management of Detroit-area metal warehouses run by Metro Trade Services International, the largest U.S. warehouse company certified to store aluminum warranted by the London Metal Exchange for use in settling trades. Since Goldman bought Metro in 2010, Metro warehouses have accumulated up to 85 percent of the U.S. LME aluminum storage market.
Since Goldman took over the warehouses, the wait to withdraw LME-warranted metal has increased from about 40 days to more than 600 days, reducing aluminum availability and tripling the regional premium for storage and delivery costs.
The investigation revealed a number of previously unknown details about these deals: that Goldman's warehouse company paid metal owners to engage in "merry-go-round" deals that shuttled metal from building to building without actually shipping aluminum out of Metro's system; that the deals were approved by Metro's board, which consisted entirely of Goldman employees; and that a Metro executive raised concerns internally about the appropriateness of such "queue management."
Goldman didn't just store aluminum; it was involved in massive trades of aluminum at the same time its warehouse operations were affecting aluminum availability, storage costs, and prices. After Goldman bought Metro, it accumulated massive aluminum holdings of its own, and in 2012, added about 300,000 metric tons of its own aluminum to the exit queue at its warehouses.
The Subcommittee investigation also examined other instances of Wall Street bank involvement with physical commodities. The Subcommittee report details how JPMorgan amassed physical commodity holdings equal to nearly 12 percent of its Tier 1 capital, while telling regulators its holdings were far smaller; and that at one point it owned an amount equal to more than half the aluminum used in North America in a year. The report also discloses that, until recently, Morgan Stanley controlled 55 million barrels of oil storage capacity, 100 oil tankers, and 6,000 miles of pipeline, while also working to build its own compressed natural gas facility and supply major airlines with jet fuel.
Details are also provided about Goldman's ownership of a uranium trading company and two open pit coal mines in Colombia. When one of the mines was shut down last year due to labor unrest, Goldman's Colombian subsidiary requested military and police assistance to end a human blockade — before paying the miners with $10,000 checks to end the protest.
The findings and recommendations from the bipartisan report are as follows:
Findings of Fact
(1) Engaging in Risky Activities. Since 2008, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, and Morgan Stanley have engaged in many billions of dollars of risky physical commodity activities, owning or controlling, not only vast inventories of physical commodities like crude oil, jet fuel, heating oil, natural gas, copper, aluminum, and uranium, but also related businesses, including power plants, coal mines, natural gas facilities, and oil and gas pipelines.
(2) Mixing Banking and Commerce. From 2008 to 2014, Goldman, JPMorgan, and Morgan Stanley engaged in physical commodity activities that mixed banking and commerce, benefiting from lower borrowing costs and lower capital to debt ratios compared to nonbank companies.
(3) Affecting Prices. At times, some of the financial holding companies used or contemplated using physical commodity activities, such as electricity bidding strategies, merry-go-round trades, or a proposed exchange traded fund backed by physical copper, that had the effect or potential effect of manipulating or influencing commodity prices.
(4) Gaining Trading Advantages. Exercising control over vast physical commodity activities gave Goldman, JPMorgan, and Morgan Stanley access to commercially valuable, non-public information that could have provided advantages in their trading activities.
(5) Incurring New Bank Risks. Due to their physical commodity activities, Goldman, JPMorgan, and Morgan Stanley incurred multiple risks normally absent from banking, including operational, environmental, and catastrophic event risks, made worse by the transitory nature of their investments.
(6) Incurring New Systemic Risks. Due to their physical commodity activities, Goldman, JPMorgan, and Morgan Stanley incurred increased financial, operational, and catastrophic event risks, faced accusations of unfair trading advantages, conflicts of interest, and market manipulation, and intensified problems with being too big to manage or regulate, introducing new systemic risks into the U.S. financial system.
(7) Using Ineffective Size Limits. Prudential safeguards limiting the size of physical commodity activities are riddled with exclusions and applied in an uncoordinated, incoherent, and ineffective fashion, allowing JPMorgan, for example, to hold physical commodities with a market value of $17.4 billion – nearly 12% of its Tier 1 capital – while at the same time calculating the market value of its physical commodity holdings for purposes of complying with the Federal Reserve limit at just $6.6 billion.
(8) Lacking Key Information. Federal regulators and the public currently lack key information about financial holding companies' physical commodities activities to form an accurate understanding of the nature and extent of those activities and to protect the markets.
Of course, the Federal Reserve – instead of regulating the banks, encouraged them to buy all of these physical assets. As Reuters notes:
[The Senate report] also points the finger at the Federal Reserve, saying the central bank has taken insufficient steps to address the risks taken by financial holding companies gathering physical commodities. The Fed in some cases was unaware of the growing risk, the report said.
Pam Martens is points out:
Adding to the hubris of the situation, the Wall Street banks' own regulator, the Federal Reserve, gave its blessing to this unprecedented and dangerous encroachment by banking interests into industrial commodity ownership and has effectively looked the other way as the banks moved into industrial commerce activities like owning pipelines and power plants.
One would think that the mega banks' regulator, the Federal Reserve, would be the first line of defense against this type of dangerous sprawl by banks. According to the Levin Subcommittee report, the Federal Reserve was actually the facilitator of the sprawl by the banks. The report notes:
"Without the complementary orders and letters issued by the Federal Reserve, many of those physical commodity activities would not otherwise have been permissible 'financial' activities under federal banking law. By issuing those complementary orders, the Federal Reserve directly facilitated the expansion of financial holding companies into new physical commodity activities."

Open Secret: The Global Banking Conspiracy That Swindled Investors Out of Billions is the new book written by Erin Arvedlund.
The book goes behind the scenes of the elite firms that trafficked in LiBOR based products, including Barclays Capital, UBS, Rabobank, and Citigroup to show the negative impact they had on both ordinary investors and borrowers.
Erin's claim to fame was a column she wrote in Barron's in the early 2000s outing Bernie Madoff as a fraud. It was a national bestseller titled Too Good to Be True.
Here is Yahoo:
"LIBOR, the London Interbank Offered Rate, is a global benchmark for interest rates. It's tied to everything from mortgage rates and student loan rates to complex financial derivatives. And guess what? For a very long time it was rigged.
Now, multiple lawsuits are pending, and that could mean some money back for some investors, traders and consumers.
LIBOR is set each day by a group of bankers, based on estimates of rates at which banks would expect to borrow money from each other. It's a system built on trust, not math. Regulators were tipped off back in 2007 that banks were fixing rates, and by the summer of 2012, an ugly scandal was revealed. An estimated $300 trillion in financial securities worldwide are based on LIBOR.

Historical Traveler Reviews Desert Paradise Resort Las Vegas
Absolutely Fabulous
What a pleasant surprise. After staying at a dreary motel that was all that was available for the previous night. This was a 10. 2 large tv's. a full kitchen, with dishes and all amenities, a balcony to drink morning coffee, washer and dryer I didn't have to go home with dirty clothes from my trip, large bathroom and walk in closet. I felt like I was living in a nice condo, friendly staff and contiental breakfast. Only thing I wasn't happy about was 4 pm check in and 10 am check out. Would stay again, it's off the beat and path but I like that , don't like the traffic on the strip.
Fantastic, Relaxing Oasis
The review from Riverside, CA is spot on. The only reason I hesitate to give this 5 stars is that it may get too busy. Huge comfortable apartments are a very welcome resting place away from the Strip - perfect for families, with separate kitchen, dining area, two bathrooms and outdoor pool. By far the best accommodation we found in a two week tour of South West USA. Please keep us a room for our next visit !
Loved the Appartment
A wonderful week's holiday, after a long day visiting `The Strip' it was great to come back to peaceful and restful accommodation. Our appt. was spacious, well layed out and good decor. This resort we found ideal after a very tiring day out, the staff were very courteous and did all they could to assist and advise. As a time share member this is one of the best resorts that I have stayed at. Well done to all the staff at Desert Paradise Resort, hope to see you again some day.
Very nice!
Even though this place is a bit far from the strip, it is a wonderful place to stay. We have a 2 year old and it's so nice to have a full kitchen and a home like atmosphere. It is clean, spacious and very comfortable. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs a suite with a nice kitchen.
Nice offstrip property
Just returned from a week stay at Desert Paradise Resort. Nice resort, friendly staff. The property is a couple miles off the strip. Small pool, but nice (with hot tub) The resort did not have a shuttle to the strip, but they are working on one now. Would stay here again, especially with a shuttle.
Nice off-strip condo
We stayed in a nice 2 BR condo; however, it did have some faults that can easily be overcome. We stayed in 1st floor condo--next time, we will stay upstairs because we could hear when the upstairs clients got up, walked, showered, etc. The shower curtain was dirty--since no one came when requested nor was it corrected during midweek housekeeping, I turned the shower curtain inside out. I wonder if they have noticed that yet. Also, take laundry detergent as it is $1 a pkg if you buy what they have available.
Otherwise, it has a nice pool area, landscaping, and staff. The Orleans is great casino. Airport is close. Easy to get to the strip and I-15.
I would recommend this place if you use my hints. ;>)
Loved this family place!
Wonderful place to stay. Perfect for families. All the ammenities and good/easy to find location.
We stay here every time we come to Vegas!!!
My husband and I stay here everytime we come to Las Vegas. It is comfortable and quiet. The staff is pleasant and helpful and helped us decide upon some places for sightseeing. We were even given directions and maps. On our last visit, we had a spacious 2 bedroom and were joined by some friends a few days into our stay. We didn't feel cramped or crowded. There are TVs in every room and large closets in each bedroom. The washer and dryer makes packing a breeze because we didn't have to bring half as many clothes as we usually do. We didn't really do any cooking but the kitchen is nice for coffee in the morning or having snacks and quick breakfasts. However, there are enough dishes, utensils, glasses, pots and pans etc. to prepare a full meal every day if you wish to. The covered porch is wonderful for coffee in the morning or cocktails in the evening. It's just minutes from the strip and very close to some nice local casinos, and our favorite casino, The Orleans, where they have 50 cent roulette tables, is just around the corner. There are convenience stores, grocery stores and restaurants nearby. I'm glad we found this beautiful resort. Had we not stayed here, we would not have discovered more of Vegas than the strip.
Nice folk, bad bed, noisy
Staff was VERY nice. Pool & Gym were very nice. Size of accomidations large, we had 2 br which made coming home from strip pleasant. Plumbing, air conditioning and sound from other guests were VERY loud. The beds were horrid. If they spent some money on sound proofing between rooms and bought good quality mattresses, mounted head boards on wall instead of bed frame it would be much better. As it is, instead of 3 stars, the rooms get 1 star from us. Won't be back.
Best Kept Secret in Las Vegas
I hesitate to rate this place because then it will become so crowded I won't get in! This is a wonderful respite from the glitter and glitz of the Strip. This is truly the best-kept secret for quality accommodations in the Las Vegas area. Every year for the past four years we have used Desert Paradise Resort as our home base for the Interop Convention. "Home" base is a great name for this place! Quiet and relaxing, clean and well appointed, the Desert Paradise Resort is actually a collection of condominium timeshares that are rented as a hotel during the off-season. The two bedroom suites are the best accommodations, with a dining area, kitchen and laundry facilities. The small sheltered lanai is a real plus and a great place to have coffee and juice in the morning while preparing for a busy day at the Convention Center. It is not centrally located which is a definite plus to me. The rates are very reasonable and well worth the quality of accommodations and ambience to be found here. A MUST for the vacationing family and business traveler alike. ---Images Software, Inc.

Good show, lots of lights, pretty loud, no particular plot, but the music was Michael and the performers were amazing. The kids enjoyed it, but we were not sure it was worth the high ticket price. Still, seems like you need to experience a Vegas show at least once in your life.
Tomorrow: More pool time at Mandalay Bay, and perhaps seeing the Vegas ...

Love this light. It is exactly what I was looking for. It is sturdy with a nice matte black finish the organza surround is a a unique material. It is opaque enough you can see through it when the lights are on to reveal the Edison bulbs. Which I love. The organza is a hard color to describe. A silver gold with an irredecent quality. It is neutral and would go with anything. I am very pleased with the over all look.
I ordered this to go above a small table and it is perfect! Just the mix of industrial and traditional design that I was looking for. I get many compliments on it.
Well Made, Gorgeous and the Edison Bulbs (included) are the icing on the cake.
This light has been very well fabricated and is even prettier in person!
This light is gorgeous! First, let me say, when I received it the mesh part was damaged and I was so sad. I contacted Overstock and they could not have been more helpful and immediately sent a replacement -- even before I returned the damaged one! The lights literally passed in the mail, which I appreciated because I didn't want a huge delay in getting the light installed. Anyway, back to the light itself, the pictures do not do it justice. They give you a good sense of what you are getting but when it arrives it is so much more amazing. The quality is great, the size is perfect, the lightbulbs make it exceptional. The install wasn't complicated. It took 30 minutes or so to read through the instructions and put it up. This light gets compliments every time someone new see's it. It is a WOW in the room. I highly recommend it.
This light is a beautiful addition to any room. It does give off a reddish tint and in my case I have to turn on a second light in my large room to get enough light at night.
Looks like restoration hardware lights for a quarter of the price. We love them and get lots of compliments.
the light would not be bad if OS would get their (#*# together- Light #1- returned due to bent center (not this style light, but another item number that was private label from over stock) Light #2- promptly replaced from light number 1- came in with the exact same bends/ out of center lights- obviously a manufacturing problem Light #3- this is a replacement style - new style new design because item 1 and 2 have factory quality issues- came in factory damaged (easy to tell from packaging), however OS blames UPS and wants me to leave on porch for 10 days. They will be making ups pay for something that was obviously factory damaged/ poor. Light #4 on order- OS promises it would be expedited - this is not the case ships ground- another 5 days via UPS Ground overall over 20 days with junk product and junk lights- I have purchased many nice things from overstock, but have learned if they import it themselves it is garbage- if it is from another vendor and truly overstock then it might be nice- OS does try , but if they keep shipping garbage and blaming UPS nothing will be solved. Customer Service promised to call or email when the item would be delivered- it never happened because they promised it would be overnight-ed and it was sent ground. overall very disappointed in not only the quality but the customer service of this item and all of their private label items.

As Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer decides this week whether to veto a bill allowing business owners to deny service to LGBT customers because of their own religious beliefs, I'm reminded of an earlier era when a similar form of discrimination was rampant.
A federal appeals court's ruling today may lead to higher wages for foreign guest workers and will help prevent employers from undercutting U.S. workers by paying lower wages to foreign laborers.
The "standards" for immigration reform offered by Republican members of the U.S. House of Representatives today fail to offer any serious proposals to fix the nation's broken immigration system.
A ruling by the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that upholds California's ban on conversion therapy for minors, a discredited practice that claims to "cure" people of being gay, is another sign of the collapse of the conversion therapy industry.
There was a line in President Obama's State of the Union address that particularly resonated with me: "Opportunity is who we are." The question is whether we'll provide that opportunity to the millions of immigrants who are living and working in the shadows in our country.
Recent policy changes affecting student loans, coupled with the skyrocketing cost of attending college, are creating financial traps for the most vulnerable students and their families, leaving many students drowning in unmanageable debt even if they fail to get a degree, according to the latest issue of Teaching Tolerance magazine, released today by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Oh, Rats!
When a sophisticated mouse named Roddy gets Flushed Away down the toilet by Syd, a roughhouse sewer rat, he finds himself in Ratropolis, where he meets a bunch of less-than-desirable characters and comedic madcap ensues. This computer-animated film, presented at the Museum of the Moving Image, will have you and your family laughing out loud as true-to-life parallels are drawn between the high-society mouse and the bumpkin rat.
Triple Play
A trio of acrobatic dancers creates a sensory feast of images ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime in Galumpha, showing at Flushing Town Hall. Watch for stunning acrobatics, striking visual effects, physical comedy, and inventive choreography in this show that tickles the imagination with its beauty, muscle, and merriment.
Celebrate Mother's Day
Moms are special every day of the year, but Mother's Day (May 13) gives us an excuse to show our appreciation. Bring your family's leading lady to one of these fun events, where she can take a break and try something new:
Take her for a walk on the wild side—visit Queens Botanical Garden, especially its wildflower gardens, for some Mother's Day Fun. Stroll together through 39 bucolic acres of natural beauty (just like Mom!), then make Mom a special treat for her special day.
Let mom know just how much you love and appreciate her by treating her to a delightful Mother's Day Brunch at Bourbon Street, featuring mouth-watering Cajun food and a friendly ambiance. Reservations are recommended.
Here's a wild idea: Take mom to see Spencers Theatre of Illusion: Making Mother's Day Magical at the Queensborough Performing Arts Center. It's much more than a magic show. It combines drama, comedy, romance, and suspense with elaborate stage illusions, making it a magical concert for Mom's eyes.
Worth a Thousand Words
Under the lens of educator and documentary photographer Audrey Gottlieb, this family, elegantly attired in matching green satin bridesmaids' dresses, strikes a natural pose at an outdoor garden affair. This photo is one of Gottlieb's Vignettes from the Queens Project, a stellar collection of photos taken around the borough. Join an Artist's Talk with Gottlieb, who shot these as a documentary that highlights the diverse nature of Queens and its multicultural residents. She is a passionate photographer who has won numerous awards and has photos on display in several museums and galleries across the country.
Must Love Bugs
Children create crafts inspired by creepy crawlers, brush up on bug anatomy, and taste a treat made with edible insects during Bug Bonanza at the Long Island Children's Museum.
How Big Can You Dream?
Can you go bigger…bigger? The Big Apple Circus comes to Cunningham Park this month with an all-new show, Dream Big, under the big top. Coming in with the clowns is a phenomenal cast—audacious acrobats who astound with athletic grace, aerial artists, joking jugglers, spirited horses, frolicsome dogs, and a capybara and porcupine to perk up the sawdust party. Whatever act you can dream of, it's there. And of course there's Grandma, a comical but beloved circus fixture, along with the singing ringmistress and the amazing Big Apple Circus Band.

As the title said, I have a question I need to ask and I know I might be overwhelmed with replies, but here goes. First I have never owned any AR. I am a classic arms collector who believes every good gun is entirely milled from a billet of steel and quartersawn walnut and built before WWII. I have been interested in gun construction for decades. So my question is, who builds a totally milled, every part, AR. What gun would you buy with these specifcations, cost be damned. I am not interested in building an AR, but would prefer to buy as manufactured.

I appreciate olderguns but milling doesnt equate with better. Its the fitting and finishing up after the rough cuts are made that distinguish a fine firearm from a so-so one.
A perfectly craptastic pos can be all hand built and a tack driving monstrosity can be made without human hands touching the parts during machining.
I would suggest larue tactical or pof as two top tier ar makers. I personally would go larue and their obr in 308 is my next rifle purchase
"Gun control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound." L. Neil Smith
The problem with being stupid is you cannot simply decide to stop doing dumb things...
"I crapped my pants to avoid the draft!!" -Ted Nugent
Larue makes some great rifles. I have a BCM that I put together that is also a damn good rifle.
"The whole of the Bill (of Rights) is a declaration of the right of the people at large or considered as individuals.... It establishes some rights of the individual as unalienable and which consequently, no majority has a right to deprive them of." (Albert Gallatin of the New York Historical Society, October 7, 1789)
"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government." - George Washington
Larues PredatOBR has received good reviews. The Costa/Larue AR looks awesome. Daniel Defense makes the majority of their own stuff and are top of the pile in quality and service. BCM is a couple hundred less but is great awesome quality.
The bitterness of poor quality Lingers long after The sweetness of low price is forgotten.
-John Ruskin
Not that milled is necessary - I would have recommended Sonju Industries - but they were bought out and no longer offer their matched/milled receiver sets.
With the exception of platic receivers, most AR recievers are forged.
Billet receivers are more expensive and heavier but usually look a lot nicer.
To be honest, most receivers are of good quality and are there more for looks than anything else.
Notable exceptions are made for precision oriented ARs that may have strengthened uppers to handle the weight of long heavy barreled applications.
Look for a quality barrel and bolt first, everything else is pretty much window dressing.
