From the article: Ways to Keep Warm (Without Turning Up the Heat)
I shared my list of ways to stay warm without turning up the heat now I want to hear your best stay-warm tips.
Stay super warm
- First make a tent. Then, get a shirt, and block the holes in the shirt. Put rice in it; then, heat it up, and take it in the tent with blankets and pillows!
- —Guest Isabelle
Electric blanket
- We have a programable thermostat, which goes down around 9:00p.m. We turn on our electric blanket about 30 minutes before we go to bed, then turn it down to about 2 when we get in. Bed is nice and toasty. The heat is programed to come up about 15 minutes before I get out of bed. House is warming by then.
- —Steve721
Bake your meals & keep the kettle on!
- My entire house warms up just from the humidity of keeping my tea kettle on low - the steam rising from the pot warms up the house, and in the late afternoon I warm up the house by baking our meals in the oven. The kitchen is in the center of the house and its turned out to be a good location. We've brought our heating bill to the lowest it's ever been in the winter - $18
- —Guest ArmenianMama
Bedtime heat
- I go for a ride on my bike before my evening meal. I am nice and warm when I get back. I have my dinner and immediately get ready for bed, changing in front of a gas fire and wearing a hat bedsocks & fleece pyjamas and an old fleece jacket. I allow myself half an hour heat in the morning to wash/dress & half an hour at night before bed (cost €32 for 110 hours).Then I get into my sleeping bag with my steel hot water bottle of tea for the morning. I have a fleece underblanket which is very good too.You can also use thick layers of newspaper under the under blankets to keep heat in. Blankets are more benefit under you than over you when it is cold.
- —kalilileth
Multi use hot water bottle
- Before bed I make up a large steel bottle of black tea and bring it into bed with me. I tend to drink tea tepid or even cold, so when I wake in the morning, it is tepid from my body heat and becomes my breakfast tea. I learned to do this camping and find it still useful for saving on both water and energy use.
- —kalilileth
Keeping warm while going to sleep.
- Get two good thick blankets or one thick blanket and wrap yourself in it and try to stay still, then its like a minature suana. Another way is go to a military surplus store and buy a wool blanket, the would usually cost about 10-15 bucks. Then just use that under or on top of your blanket.
- —Guest Jeremy
Electric Mattress Pad
- Buy a mattress heater; put it under the sheets of your bed; then, turn it on 15-30 minutes before bed.
- —Guest Jim Bob
- I don't see that anyone has put on here to use a hot water bottle! I use one all day everyday when I'm at home and not working! Its amazing, saves a fortune on the heating, along with 2 pairs of socks!
- —Guest MsMazza
staying warm
- We have old windows; we cover them with plastic; put thick towels along the bottoms of the doors to keep out drafts. We have a window unit that is 110 and it has air/heat. It has an energy-saver thermostat, so we keep it on the saver options; and when its warm inside it stays off
- —Guest annie
Little things add up for comfort
- I live in an old house with old single-pane windows. I had the utility company do an audit and they installed weather stripping and outlet insulators. They recommended upgrading to dual pane windows, but this is a rental. I put recycled bubble-wrap over the windows and it really helps to keep out the cold, yet lets in light during the day. I dress in layers, usually sweatpants, socks with slippers and a woolen knit cap, and I use lap blankets when I sit and read. The bed has flannel sheets and a down comforter, and if it's really cold at night, I'll wear a hoodie to bed to keep my head and neck warm. I draped a sheet over the box springs like a dust ruffle and put the dog's bed under my bed. He loves sleeping in his "den" and his body heat warms that small space well. If it's really cold, I put his fleece sweater on him to help him retain heat, as he's a short-haired house dog.
- —Guest LizRich
warm hands
- Microwave a couple of small potatoes and tuck them in your pocket before you go outside. They will warm your hands and your body. Just peel them and cook for breakfast after your walk or add them to you favorite soup.
- —Guest Jean
- Since we only have a wall furnace in our 1960's home in the winter months, we keep our archway to the kitchen covered with an attractive thermal curtain and also cover the hallway to the bedrooms. Keeping the heat in the living area only. EVENINGS - After turning on heater on for 15-20 minutes, I first change clothes and then shut it off. It stays warm long enough to feel very comfortable to read or watch TV snuggled in a sherpa blanket, covered over my head. Looks weird but it sure feels good! SLEEPING - I use flannel sheets and put an electric heating pad right where my feet go, making sure to cover that area with a heavy sherpa blanket or a thick pillow for 10 minutes before I climb in. I then pull the electric pad over my body for just a few minutes then shut it off and remove it. You really shouldn't sleep with it for safety reasons. I'm comfortable all night. MORNING - I grab my clothes and head for the bathroom to turn on the space heater long enough to get dressed.
- —Guest Judith from Dublin, CA
Oil Lamps
- During the blizzard of 1978, my grandparents lost their power for a week. Without power their furnace would not kick on. They used blankets and some scrap wood for a frame to construct a room within a room. An oil lamp within this construction kept them plenty warm for the entire period.
- —Guest Mike Duffield
Lots of things you can do
- Well, you can dress in many thick layers, and another really good thing is fill a sock up with cheap rice and heat it over the stove or in a microwave. You can reuse them over and over and you don't have to worry about falling asleep with them on. Drink lots of hot drinks, like soup or tea. Drinks usually warm me up more than food, so I drink a lot of hot tea. Use your pets! If you have a dog or cat, let them sleep on your bed. Their body heat is much cheaper than paying for heating oil. Socks and hats are both very important, in my opinion. Hats help you not lose as much heat, and you don't feel as cold when you have warm feet, do you? I, for one, am very rarely warm enough. Sometimes you just have to ignore the chill a little.
- —Guest freezingallthetime
make the most of lingering heat
- Have the family eat, watch tv, do homework, etc, all in the kitchen as the heat from the oven keeps it warm. More bodies in the room will keep you all warmer too. Add lots of spice to your meals, especially ginger and chillies. Have a hot drink just as you go to bed, I like hot pineapple juice or hot milk.

Is it time to panic? Yes. Looks like humanity is fast heading to a self-created antediluvian era with medicines becoming ineffective against diseases.
According to World Health Organisation's (WHO) first global report on the subject, resistance to antibiotics is a serious threat to public health, and it's a worldwide phenomenon. The report, released on Wednesday, gives the most comprehensive picture of antibiotic resistance to date.
"Unless stakeholders take urgent, coordinated action, the world is headed for a post-antibiotic era, in which common infections and minor injuries, which have been treatable for decades, can once again begin to kill," says Dr Keiji Fukuda, assistant director-general for Health Security, WHO.
As per the report—'Antimicrobial resistance: global report on surveillance'—many infectious agents have developed resistance, but it is focusing on antibiotic resistance in seven different bacteria responsible for serious common diseases such as bloodstream infections (sepsis), diarrhoea, pneumonia, urinary tract infections and gonorrhoea.
It's a burgeoning problem in WHO's South-East Asia Region, home to a quarter of the world's population. In some parts of the region, more than a quarter of Staphylococcus aureus infections are reported to be methicillin-resistant (MRSA), that is treatment with standard antibiotics does not work. Dr Poonam Khetrapal Singh, WHO regional director for South-East Asia, has identified drug resistance as a priority area of WHO's work in the region.
According to the report, the burden of infectious disease in India is among the highest in the world. And the reason for the antimicrobial resistance is the inappropriate and irrational use of antimicrobial agents against these diseases. Poor regulation, particularly in prescription of medicines, is the major reason for this.
Realising the threat, the Indian Medical Association has started a campaign to educate its doctors on judicious use of antibiotics. Dr Jayant Lele, general secretary, IMA Maharashtra said: "The decision was taken at a recent IMA meeting in Rajasthan. We plan to educate our doctors on the rationale use of antibiotics."
Dr Khusrav Bajan, consultant intensivist, PD Hinduja Hospital added that no new groups of antibiotics had been developed since the 1990s. "Microorganisms have evolved at a higher speed than drug development. The current high-end antibiotics have become ineffective in treating some infections. Carbapenem is the last group of antibiotic developed worldwide. New Delhi superbug or New Delhi Metallo-B-Lactamose 1 (NDM1) is just one example."
People can help tackle resistance by:
Using antibiotics only when prescribed by doctor
Completing the course, even if they feel better
Never sharing antibiotics with others or using leftovers
Health workers and pharmacists can help tackle resistance by:
Enhancing infection prevention and control
Only prescribing/dispensing antibiotics when truly needed
Prescribing/dispensing the right antibiotic(s).

Football: No Liverpool offer for Can, says Leverkusen's Voeller
Published on May 22, 2014 7:18 PM
BERLIN (AFP) - Liverpool have yet to table an official offer for Emre Can, the Germany Under-21 midfielder's club Bayer Leverkusen said on Thursday.
Reports in the British media suggest that the Premier League runners-up are on the verge of a 10-million-pound (S$21.2 million) deal to bring him to Anfield for next season.
But Bayer's director of sport Rudi Voeller said the club had heard nothing from the Reds about the versatile 20-year-old, who enjoyed an impressive first season at Leverkusen after signing from Bayern Munich.
"We know they are interested, but we have not been presented with anything officially," the former international told German daily Bild.

Nosh Redefines the Social Dining Experience
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Nosh (http://www.nosh.me), a free iPhone and Android app that allows users to rate, review, and share photos of menu items with friends and followers across social networks, officially launches for foodies everywhere. Nosh takes dining recommendations to the next level by shifting the review from an entire restaurant to the actual menu items. Nosh users can see what the most popular items on the menu are through reviews and photos, and find "what's good here" and which dishes to avoid.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110720/SF38288)
With Nosh the entire food review experience is now simple and fun by helping people easily find and follow their friends and food critics alike, for a fuller social dining experience, even when dining alone. People can easily share their experience on Nosh, as well as with friends and followers on Facebook and Twitter.
Once a diner has decided what to have, Nosh makes it easy for them to rate, review and share that experience with all their friends and future diners. No longer restricted to reviewing just a restaurant, diners now "nosh" an item by rating the dish on a scale of 1 to 5 stars, uploading a photo and writing a review on the phone (which can be updated on the Nosh.me website). Nosh has a growing database of more than 150,000 menus and over 10 million menu items.
With the large – and growing – database of menus, Nosh simplifies the process of recommending and discovering new menu items. Nosh's focus is to deliver a sleek and easy way for people to navigate the culinary world, and bring their friends with them.
"Stepping into a restaurant today or 50 years ago is essentially the same experience for a diner. You're shown to a table, handed a menu and have only the waiter to turn to for advice. With Nosh, users can see what other diners have rated as good or bad, what their friends have had, read menu item reviews and even see pictures before making their choice," said Craig Walker, CEO and founder of Firespotter Labs, the makers of Nosh. "Nosh brings the dining experience into the 21st century, and relies on friends and other diners for advice, rather than just the waiter."
Nosh is the first product from Firespotter Labs. Nosh can be found at http://www.nosh.me and is open for users to sign up, find friends to follow and view their friends' "noshes". Nosh also tracks statistics to see how many items they've had and where, and how they compare to the rest of their friends on Nosh.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Fay123 Wonderful Anaheim Experience My daughters and I just came back from a 5 night stay at your hotel. We were all very impressed with the hotel and especially with the staff. Everyone was very professionl, helpful and friendly. It made our "Disney" vaction extra special to have some great accomodations. July 27, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by LoveKC Unpleasant Stay Booked my reservation Feb 2012 for a July 2012 stay using Starwood points as I am a SPG Gold member. We were attending a Kenny Chesney/Tim McGraw concert at the Angels Stadium with another couple so I booked (2) rooms. We arrived at the Hotel at 3pm and were told the room was not ready to come back at 4pm. We left to eat an early dinner, and returned to the hotel at 5pm only to be told our rooms were still not ready, (the concert start time was 4:30pm.) I was told because my reservation had a "special request" that was why our rooms weren't ready. My "special request" was to try to put our 2-rooms on the same floor and close together if possible, how dare I want to be near our guests! Also, I was told they didn't expect to be so busy due to the concert. (?) I thought that's why we need to make reservations. The gave us 2-rooms on separate floors and we took room 140. 7:30am I kept hearing a door slam and was sure our room was near the ice machine or a guest kept opening and slamming their door. Nope, every room door slams shut if you don't hold it and gently close it. So if you want to sleep in don't stay at this hotel or near room 140. Oh and the tub didn't drain, had to stand in bath water while showering. I NEVER do reviews, but I felt the need to share my experience because I read reviews to help me determine if I want to stay at a hotel. The grounds are beautiful :) July 19, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by spiritmea Great Hotel for the price This is my second stay at this hotel and it was great. The staff is very courteous and helpful. They helped me booked ticket for Universal Studious. I left a bag behind, after I checked out and they very graciously offered to mail it to my home! Also, I found a better rate for this hotel on a different website and after the fact I had made reservations, it was honored. Once again, great hotel to stay at! July 18, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Cherbearam Recommend highly for a great stay I travel to Anaheim, CA often to go to Disneyland. I always stay at this Sheraton. The staff is always welcoming and friendly. The club lounge staff make me feel welcome and comfortable. The rooms are always clean and I enjoy the pool area which is always kept up. I find it hard though that I am charged for parking. I am aware of the cost before hand, but it just does not feel fair with the cost of staying at this hotel, that they also charge for parking. July 16, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by NJM84 Great Location I stayed at the hotel overnight for business, and the only downside was that everyone in the building seemed to be there with their family for a summer Disney vacation.. so I was jealous I had to work! With all of those families and kids, I never heard a peep once in my room, and the hotel is large enough where it wasn't distracting at all, even for a work trip. I walked about 100 yards out of the parking lot to Mortons for dinner and that is amazing perk! The location is so close to great food! July 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jennifer37 A great pick for the Disneyland area I was here on business for a conference and every bit of this hotel stay exceeded my expectations. This was my second time at this hotel and I would choose it again if/when returning to Anaheim. Very close walk to Disneyland and restaurants, staff were very friendly and accommodating, rooms were clean, fitness center had new and clean equipment. My only gripe is that the gift shop and cafe wouldn't permit room charges - a pain when you're running around to conference events and may not have your wallet handy. Other than that, a great stay. July 2, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Silletti Walking distance to DisneyLand My wife and I are Starwood members so we make it a point to stay at Starwood properties. We've never been let down and our recent stay here was no exception. The hotel is spotless! Our room was spotless and comfortable. The grounds, with pool and jacuzzi, were very well maintained. The staff is very kind and responsive. Our room safe was broken; it was fixed within 5 minutes. Plus, a huge advantage, you can literally walk to DisneyLand and California Adventure (with the new Car Land attractions!) June 30, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by PWCB74 Nice Nice place to stay for Disney June 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by DisneyVacationer Clean and comfortable This hotel was a great location for Disneyland vacationers. Close to parks and either walking distance (we did not do since we have young children) or shuttle bus. Shuttle was $10/adult for 3 day pass. They say it comes every 20 min, but expect to wait up to 30 min. This hotel is the first stop to the parks, so you do make another stop at one other hotel. It is, however, the first stop after leaving the park which is nice. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable. All staff we encountered were very pleasant. The coffee shop by the lobby (serves Starbucks) was excellent - great espresso drinks. Parking is charged per day, which is a disappointing fee. However, they do tell you up front about this fee so it's not like we didn't expect it. Just annoying to have to pay to park at the hotel that you're staying at. All in all, great hotel and definitely recommended! June 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by RobQPEng Great Stay for Father - Daughter Weekend Decided on a last minute trip to DL with my 6 year old daughter. We had a great time at the Sheraton, loved the 4 pillows on each bed, and the pool area was a fantastic mid-day break at 3pm. Well done for a resonable price. Thanks to Saul at the pool for making our snacks just right...fantastic service. June 22, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Akunga Great Hotel! We were given a room on a high floor facing Disneyland. The room was very spacious and spotlessly clean. The interior of the room felt fresh and we felt really cozy & comfortable especially after a very long day @ Disneyland (15 minutes slow walk away). The staffs were very approachable, warmth and always willing to assist with your enquiries. The coin operated laundry room was kept clean and 'odorless'. A suggestion is to extend the operating hours longer as most of the Disneyland going guests will only reach the hotel late in the evening. The hotel did not disappoint us and should we ever visit Anaheim again, this hotel will be our first choice. As the saying goes, first impression lasts. June 21, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by AD123 Consistantly Exceeds Expectations This is the third time that we stayed at this hotel and each time we've had a very pleasant experience. We had a wonderful room overlooking Disneyland with a full balcony which the kids loved to watch the fireworks from. I've been using Starwood Hotels for over 9 years now for work and pleasure and this one always puts a smile on my face. Special mention to Tina for all the help, a true professional! June 19, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Dgrason Adequate and functional The top drawer to the dresser was broken. The beds were very comfortable as I've come to expect. The soaps would not lather when used. More than adequate number of towels. Did not really recognize me a an SPG member as other properties have. June 12, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Paul2012 Internet service was poor Room was ok, but only rooms with king beds are handicapped rooms? Additionally, I needed to get work done, but internet in rooms was not working. I had to go to the lobby to work. And at check-out, had to pay for internet that did not work in the room. June 11, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by grapeape428 our favorite place! this is our 5th time we have stayed here. love this hotel and will still continue to stay here on every california trip in the future! June 10, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by kangol73 Close to Convention Center Excellent place to stay when you need to be close to the convention center or Disneyland June 5, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Matteo925 Great location Great location for a Disneyland visit, also well placed for most visits in the OC. Have stayed here twice now, friendly staff, great beds and pillows. A microwave would be helpful for people staying longer. Please note, it's a bit of a walk to actually get into the Disney parks- roughly 10-15 mins. You can't really stay all too much closer, but just a note, for those with kids or a large group you may want to look into the shuttles that run. Otherwise, for people looking for a little more exercise a trip or two back and forth with all the walking in the park make for a great day. I like being about a block away from the worse of the traffic anyhow. Molly's has some great food, not cheap, but decently priced andtasted great. May 30, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by SBVic Great Hotel Experience This is a great property for when you don't want to spend $350+ per night staying at a Disney Hotel (always the best choice for special occasions) What we like about this property are: 1~ The proximity to Disneyland (about a 15 minute walk from your room to the front gate). 2~ All the dining choices within walking distance... from a Morton's Steakhouse across the parking lot, to the attached Overland Stage BBQ restaurant/bar & Molly's Kitchen for early (6:00am) breakfasts & lunches.. Plus all kinds of good dining choices 1 block up Katella at the Garden Walk Mall (Roy's Hawaiian Fusian, Bubba Gump's, Cheesecake Factory, etc) 3~ The pool area is nicely done (see the pics) surrounded by Palm trees giving it a tropical vibe. The Pool Bar serving better than normal bar fare to eat and mixing nice drinks.4~ They have a pretty nice Gym & they don't charge their guests a $20.00 fee like the Hilton does at their 5 star gym. 6~ The Heavenly beds are very comfortable 7~ The Club Lounge has good breakfast & appetizer fare. 8~ Full Balconies overlooking California Adventure park (request them, some are only partial) great to have evening cocktails and watch the sun go down. 9~ One of the Best views of the Disney Fireworks display from your own private Balcony on the top floor..and 10~ Friendly and attentive Staff throughout the hotel May 30, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Lisa1973 Worst Stay Ever Without a doubt my worst stay ever at a Starwood Property! Where do I begin? No doorman to help us with our bags, guy at checkin was less than helpful, no upgrade (although platnium member), once again no help getting our suitcases to our room, small room, dirty bathtub, broken TV, kids playing soccer in the halls @10:30pm, told there was a shuttle to the park but there wasn't, following night had to ask all the teenagers having a party on our floor to stop, mix-up will our bill that need fixing and the list goes on...the only positive the whole stay was the staff in the club lounge. May 30, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by MKBUK Pleasantly surprised Clean, functional hotel. Platinum upgrade to Disney-view with balcony on top floor. Check-in clerk excellent. Massively exceeded expectations. Club Lounge food could be improved: poor breakfast selection and no vegetarian hors d'oeuvres. May 29, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 Room great, staff better When we first arrived the reception staff was great. We were excited about our weekend and they immediately picked up on our mood and joined in. The room assigned was great but I thought I had asked for park facing, so I went to ask for the extra bonus - and was immediately given a new room - just as the fireworks started. Main street is the best place to watch the show but the 14th floor of the Park may be second. The gym was clean and modern, the pool relaxing and the cleaning staff efficient and friendly. Room service was tasty and quick. Loved our stay and will be back - hopefully soon. May 24, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tennesse68 My favorite Sheraton Hotel in US I have stayed at this hotel many times for business. Stayed at Sheraton hotels >75 nights last year and this is absolutely my favorite in the US. The staff is awesome starting with Naz in the Club Lounge, Sandra and Sandra, Veronica at the front desk, Leticia in the restaurant, as well as all the staff. The staff remains the same which has something to say about managment and making employees satisfied. For business travelers, the hotel makes you feel comfortable, the next best thing to being at home. Love this hotel and the employees. May 12, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by NavyChief Average Hotel; No SPG Recognition Spent one night here. Check in was fast but no mention of Starwood Platinum status, other than when the desk clerk handed me the Platinum key card envelop, saying "I guess you want the 500 points?". Room was a regular room; no suite upgrade, even though suites were available. Room was on the Starwood floor with club access. However, keys did not work in Club Lounge. Called front desk and then said come down and get new keys. I went down, and continued walking out the door to Morton's. Much better drinks! Parking is $21 per night. A bit much, I think. You are within walking distance of Disneyland, or for another fee, there is a shuttle that runs often. Breakfast at Molly's Kitchen was good. Several breakfast items which should satisfy everyone. If you are traveling with your family and Disneyland is your destination, this is a great location May 12, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Appleofmyeye3 Great place to stay Because we belong to SPG and have Disneyland passes we are in Anaheim many times during the year. This is the place to stay. Our Dental Hygiene meeting is here in May of each year, so my friends and I always make it point to stay here. Would recommend this Sheraton Resort . May 7, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by JancieJ Excellent Accommodations The rooms were lovely and large. Very, comfortable with wonderful staff at every stage of my stay. Food was very good. For those who also wish to add a visit to Disneyland, it is a short walk and easily done. April 30, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by points44 staff was outstanding we were their a week. The staff was great and explained and suggested things to do and tours how to go about getting to places and setting up car rental and pickup to airport when ready to leave. The only two things I would suggest is either bigger waste baskets or more of them, and microwave. Not always convenient to go out to get something and also saves a little money to be able to heat things you can pick up at store for late night or anytime. If staying a week it helps to be able to do things like that to save a little so you can do other things. But other than that we had a great time would stay again . April 22, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Got2yearold Disneyland Vacation We stayed here because of the proximity to Disneyland. Great location. 10 minute walk to the gates. There are plenty of choices for food in the hotel and within walking distance. The hotel's convenient store, restaurants, service, pool and grounds were great. We will definitely return and stay here when going to Disneyland. April 19, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by TravelinKen Family Destination - Not a Business One I stayed at this hotel because I was attending a conference at the Convention Center and this was the closest Starwood property. The rooms were average but at least clean and the club floor seemed quieter than the floors my colleagues were staying on. The front desk and valet staff were friendly. However, I was asked by the front desk what I would like for my Platinum welcome amenity and I asked what the "local amenity" choice was. The reply was - We don't have one of those set up. You want the points, right? She didn't seem to know much about the rewards program. I did appreciate that the desk in the room didn't face the wall! So many times I have worked hours staring at a wall all night. The desk in the room was facing the window so at least I could look up from my computer from time to time and at least see the outside. Business travelers - the club lounge was overrun with children. What a madhouse! April 16, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by FamOnVacation Good location for Disneyland and DCA Hotel location is good if you don't want to stay in a Disney hotel. It's a short walk to both Disneyland and Disneyland California Adventures. We usually stay at Sheraton hotels and this particular one fell a little short of expectations. The TV remote didn't work, coffee maker didn't work, and had a leaky faucet. The walls seemed to be thin because we were up part of the night by the neighbor hacking and coughing. Aside from the neighboring hacker, the staff was good at replacing the remote and coffee maker, and fixed the faucet. My only suggestion is that they at least test the remote and coffee maker during each clean up for the next occupants. Still taking into consideration my overall experiences with Sheratons, I still recommend it. April 15, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by EL67 Great hotel and really close to Disneyland This was our first time staying here and we will definitely stay here again. The only problem was the size of the bathroom area. Too small if more then 2 people are trying to get ready. April 12, 2012

Cardiff - Wales hooker Lloyd Burns is to miss the whole of this season's Six Nations after being sidelined for three months with a neck injury, it was announced Thursday.
The 27-year-old went from playing Welsh Premiership club rugby to representing Wales at last year's World Cup all in the space of 18 months.
But now the Newport Gwent Dragons forward has been told to take at least a three-month break from rugby to give his neck injury-- a common problem for front-rowers - the chance to heal.
"Lloyd has been advised to withdraw from rugby for at least three months in order to fully rehab his neck," Dragons rugby director Robert Beale said.
"We are obviously disappointed for Lloyd, particularly with the Six Nations coming up, but Lloyd's safety and welfare has to be paramount."
Injuries meant experienced hookers Matthew Rees and Richard Hibbard missed the World Cup but the pair are back playing again and set to secure places in Wales' Six Nations squad, due to be announced later this month.
Wales begin the tournament away to Ireland in Dublin on February 5.

Asperger's disorder, also called Asperger's syndrome, is a
type of pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) as defined by the American
Psychiatric Association.1 Asperger's disorder is
similar to high-functioning autism in how it affects a child's mannerisms and
socialization traits.
A distinction between Asperger's disorder
and autism is that young children with Asperger's have normal language
development, although the rhythm, pitch, and emphasis are irregular. Unlike
autism, Asperger's disorder does not delay other aspects of development. A
child usually has age-appropriate self-reliance and an interest in the world
around him or her. But as with autism, children with Asperger's disorder have
abnormal social interactions, facial expressions, and gestures.
Asperger's disorder affects males 4 to 5 times more than females.2 Its cause is unknown. More research is needed to confirm
whether Asperger's disorder is a condition that is genetically related to

All Western Dental Offices Convert to Digital X-rays
ORANGE, Calif., June 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — The superior ease of use, safety and accuracy of digital dental X-rays convinced the health care professionals at Western Dental Services, Inc. to make the advanced technology standard equipment in each of its 260-plus dental and orthodontic offices in California, Arizona and Nevada.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100804/LA45125LOGO)
The years-long conversion has given the dental HMO state-of-the-art diagnostic technology. Compared to traditional X-rays, digital X-rays offer better image quality, and also deliver many more benefits to patients.
With digital X-rays, a small, smooth sensor can be positioned at any angle in the mouth to capture a detailed image. Nearly instantly, the digital image appears on a computer screen, allowing dentists to make the first shot their best shot. After the picture is taken, dentists can adjust the contrast and brightness of the image to detect even the smallest evidence of many oral health issues.
Patients review their X-rays with their Western Dental dentists, a process that helps illustrate indications of decay, gum disease, infections, weakened fillings or improperly positioned teeth.
"The immediate feedback has helped our patients to become more involved in their own dental health," said Dr. Louis Amendola, D.D.S., Chief Dental Director at the California-based dental HMO.
Computer software gives dentists more diagnostic tools, and enhanced options for displaying, storing and sharing X-rays between computers and networks.
"We are able to enlarge and compare digital images so that patients can see where they are having problems," Dr. Amendola said.
Using digital technology to diagnose oral health issues considerably decreases the amount of radiation exposure. Compared to conventional film X-rays, digital images use up to 80 to 90 percent less radiation, according to The Journal of the American Dental Association.
"Digital X-ray technology has made our offices safer, greener and more efficient," said Samuel H. Gruenbaum, president and CEO of Western Dental. "Patients and staff are exposed to decreased radiation, and we've eliminated the time and chemicals required to process film. Now treatments proceed without interruption.
"Converting all of our offices was a considerable investment," said Gruenbaum, "but our dentists, technicians and our patients are very happy that we did."
Headquartered in Orange, Calif., Western Dental Services, Inc., is the largest staff-model dental HMO and clinical provider of dental services in California. With more than 4,400 employees and over 260 company-managed dental offices throughout California, Arizona and Nevada, Western Dental is the leader in family and specialty dental care operations at convenient neighborhood locations. The company's strict quality oversight, affordable treatments, group and individual dental benefit plans, as well as evening and weekend office hours, help keep the smiles of nearly three-quarters of a million patients healthy and bright every year.

Jenny Sanford as a role model
Finally, a new model for the wronged political spouse.
It's about time.
South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford's let-it-all-hang-out news conference was a different approach, too. But a better one? Pick your poison: staged declaration of politically requisite contrition, or meandering mooning of a love-struck adolescent inhabiting the body of a supposedly grown-up politician.
The stomach churns at both — and from the spousal perspective, I suppose I'd rather have my straying husband (I mean, my theoretically straying husband) driven by a different piece of his anatomy than his heart.
But Jenny Sanford presents a new and improved version of the betrayed political spouse — neither enabler nor victim.
We're all too familiar with the usual drill, in all its excruciating permutations. In one, the wronged wife stands, looking stricken, by the side of cheating pol as cameras whir. See Silda Wall and Eliot Spitzer, Suzanne and Larry Craig.
In another, the wife is not on display but issues a supportive, if unnervingly euphemistic, press release. See Darlene Ensign: "Since we found out last year we have worked through the situation" and "our marriage has become stronger." Since we found out? Seems to me that one of us knew earlier about that, um, situation.
And space does not permit me to plumb the depths of spouse-enabling, self-deception and ambition embedded in the examples of Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Edwards, except to say that the latest about John Edwards makes Bill Clinton look like the perfect gentleman. A former Edwards aide, Andrew Young, is reported to be writing a book describing how the candidate beseeched him to falsely claim paternity of Rielle Hunter's child, and how Young found a videotape showing Edwards, as the New York Daily News so delicately put it, "taking positions that weren't on his official platform."
I have to confess to, and apologize for, having preconceived notions about Jenny Sanford that turn out to have nothing to do with who she actually is. I heard "wife of conservative Christian governor," saw the picture of her with those four well-groomed boys and figured her for someone who wouldn't have the spine to stick up for herself.
Boy was I wrong. She is as smart as Elizabeth or Hillary, except trade the law degree for an investment banking vice presidency (Lazard Freres) — and maybe tougher, too, at least when it comes to husbands.
What I admire most about Sanford's response is that she has apparently concluded — correctly so — that the person who is humiliated by her husband's affair is, in fact, her husband, not her. And so she is not standing by his side but she is not hiding in a hole, either.
Instead, she took the kids out to see the tall ships — and breezily told the press mob, "I wish we had room on the boat for you all, but we do not." He rambled on in a news conference; she crafted an elegant and thoughtful statement.
I admire her mature view of adultery as not a one strike (or even three trips to Argentina) and you're out transgression, but also her refusal to tolerate its continuation. "We reached a point where I felt it was important to look my sons in the eyes and maintain my dignity, self-respect and my basic sense of right and wrong," Sanford said in her statement.

Craft artists, fine artists, painters, sculptors and illustrators, as well as multi-media artists and graphic designers make up the art industry. All artists usually follow their natural talent with a degree or other training program, which gives them credibility when looking for work with a prospective employer or through self-employment. For either method, there are more available talented artists than there is demand for their work, so positions and clientele are highly coveted. Most artists begin working part-time to build their portfolio while still in school or while working at other jobs until they have enough regular work to constitute being a full-time artist.

Everton boss Dave Moyes admits they struggled to test Chelsea during last night's home defeat.
Michael Essien's goal was enough for the visitors and Moyes told Everton's website afterwards: "I'm disappointed that we didn't take anything, but we didn't play well enough to take anything out of the game.
"You never want to lose a goal, but before the break it makes it a little bit more difficult. It's hard to get goals against them."
Everton were without Leon Osman and Mikel Arteta for the game, but Moyes refused to use the absence of the duo as an excuse for the defeat
"The boys were here, they knew the way it was," added Moyes. "We felt short and we look short but we're only really missing a few key players."

2013 BEST Toy Store
Curious George
Anatomy of a Winner:
We all shed tears when our favorite impetuous primate and his long-suffering companion, the man with the yellow hat, lost their Harvard Square home in 2011. Luckily, the world's only Curious George store reopened in the same location last year, with an expanded focus and a brand-new interior. Besides the original books by Margret and H. A. Rey, here are some of the things we love about the shop.
1. Stroller valet means there's nary a carriage in sight and more room for playing and browsing.
2. Small visitors can curl up with a book in the popular reading nook.
3. Stuffed versions of the iconic monkey range from eight to thirty-six inches.
4. Local playthings, like this "Pirates of Boston" puzzle from Marblehead's Mud Puddle Toys, are on offer.
5. Exclusive T-shirts emblazoned with the shop's namesake and friends are designed in-house.
6. Trying out the display toys—like these bright Crocodile Creek balls—is encouraged.

EQ 2: Try This AMD 64 Tweaker Setting
Works like fecking gold on my system.
Re: EQ 2: Try This
lol you coulda put AMD 64 in your heading
Re: EQ 2: Try This
Re: EQ 2: Try This
How does this relate to EQ2? Shouldn't it be for all AMD64 Gamers?
Re: EQ 2: Try This
I thought a link to the actual program might help this thred a little....
Re: EQ 2: Try This
Is this what you're talking about?
Google'ing it was a pain, to many damn foreign pages...
(EDIT:Tried you're exact settings up there and it locked up my system hard. Is there a specific setting that you're referring to?)
Re: EQ 2: Try This
Do you have any documentation at what any of these settings do? I don't know many of these and anyone who messes with them without knowledge of what they do is just stupid.
Re: EQ 2: Try This
Tried these settings and it made EQ2 run choppier after 20mins of play for some reason..
Try the settings on that thread, got my system running good with these settings and do notice a small improvement.
Re: EQ 2: Try This
I have found it is best to make sure your BIOS CAS setting and what you set with the Tweaker match to avoid problems.
EDIT: and here are stock nforce4 settings if you would like to try that,
Obviously folks need 2-2-2-5 capable ram to try this, otherwise I'd set 2.5-3-3-8 for general/average ram.
Those that are interested in educating themselves, go here:
EDIT part Deux:
Trc 8 will stick on my system. Added 4 to it for my Trfc and got a nice boost. Cut my Twtr and Trtw in half and it held as well. One sec faster on superPi1m with this. It works nicely for me.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 - 7 nights
The home is located on M119 Heritage Highway (bring your bicycle) with 165 feet of frontage on Lake Michigan for beach activities. The 3 acre property is half dune and half forest. The boat launch is 1 mile away. There are many hiking trails through area forests and conservancy properties. The village offers a post office, general store-gas station,churches, and restaurants. There are several artists in the neighborhood with opportunities for classes/workshops. Multiple golf courses are a short drive away. Excellent medical care is available in nearby Petoskey. Mackinac City and ferries to Mackinac Island are less than a 1/2 hr. drive. An eclectic variety of activities abounds in the area: watch a polo match, attend a concert at Bay View, go to the casino, climb a dune, shop, eat in one of many area restaurants, or just tuck in with a puzzle or good book.
This is a 2 story home with the main floor upstairs to maximize the great view. Three bedrooms have queen size beds. The 4th bedroom has 2 sets of bunks. In addition there are 2 queen size futons in the all-purpose room.
My husband and I purchased this property in 1975 and then spent many years gathering ideas before we built. We felt the grand-kids should focus on outdoor and creative activities while at the Lello House and therefore made a conscious decision against having a television. The decor and amenities were designed for our taste and comfort. Unfortunately retirement incomes to not allow for ever increasing property taxes which make it necessary for us to rent a portion of every year. Otherwise we would be there ourselves!
Laurelynne Harris purchased this house in 1975
The view! The trillium, morels and wild flowers in the spring; the beach in the summer; the beautiful fall color; the surprising enchantment of winter. Cross Village has a wonderful neighborly small village culture. Did I mention the view?
The Lello House is well suited for multigenerational vacations.
I wanted to tell you how wonderful our stay was and how much we enjoyed your
library of books, very peaceful and serene. Your cottage is charming and we
fell in love with it. I can understand why you would like to live there
full time.
This home is well equipped, clean, and the owner is welcoming and available. We enjoyed the beautful beach and long walks on the shore.
The bedrooms are comfortable and clean, and kitchen was well equipped.
I would recommend this property if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing beach home that is within a 30 minutes or less drive to shopping, dining, tourist attractions.
My family and I have been vacationing on Lake Michigan for many years....and this stay was our favorite! The house was lovely and the views from every window were awesome...like staying in a treehouse with a beautiful view of the lake. The owner was extremely helpful and we would highly recommend this home. We would love to stay again next year!
Our extended family stayed at the Lelo house and had an awesome time. Laurelynne was a great host. Incredible views. Great beach and swimming. Kids spent a lot of time down there. Looking forward to next year!
My family and I enjoyed our stay at your lovely home so much! The house was clean and very warm and welcoming, and my son and I really appreciated your book selection. The views from the house and the deck were beautiful and we enjoyed having the beach all to ourselves every day. The overall ambiance of the place was so peaceful and relaxing that we changed our plan for a day trip to Mackinaw Island because we wanted more time at the house! We would love to come back sometime.
Julie S., Clarkston, MI

PORTLAND -- An Oregon man is helping challenge the idea that people with damaged spinal cords cannot recover.
Rob Summers was a pitcher at Oregon State University before a car crash in 2006 paralyzed him from the chest down.
He went through intense physical therapy for three years without improvement. Then researchers implanted electrodes that mimicked his brain signals.
Now Summers and three others who had the same treatment can move muscles in their legs.
Being able to move my toes, ankles, knees on command...It was absolutely incredible, Summers said. There are not enough words to describe how I felt. At one point it was just a dream, and now it's reality.
Researchers said the patients progress offers promise for six million paralyzed Americans.

Murphy's business model evolves with key personnel
Matchmaker moves seamlessly to franchising
CLEARWATER— Business brokers are marketplace matchmakers, finding the perfect fit between companies in need of an owner and suitable entrepreneurs in search of an opportunity.
Setting up the match seems intuitive: You find people with a yen to own a business and pair them with a company that fits their budget and meets their needs.
"You could do it that way," said Roger Murphy, founder of Murphy Business & Financial Corp., "if you want to go broke."
No, you don't go after the entrepreneurs first, he said. It's the other way around.
"It's all about listings," he said. Getting new listings is absolutely the hardest part of the business, but also the most essential.
"You get a company that wants to sell. Package it. Put in on the web all over the place, and people will call. If they don't want that company, you'll sell them something else. You get two strikes at the plate instead of one."
Getting the nudge needed
"Those who list last" is one of the key things Murphy has learned since he started his business from a home office in Palm Harbor in 1994, shortly after he left the non-stop travel and stress of a corporate career in magazine publishing.
"I was burned out," he said. "I wanted to move to Florida and do something on my own, and I didn't want to wait until I was retired."
Murphy soon found that there were few training materials or established procedures in the business brokerage business, so he began to create his own. He shared them with other brokers and formed a network of Florida brokers.
Before long, brokers from out of state asked to join, but he didn't know how to go about franchising and wasn't sure that he wanted to.

Originally written on NBA 24/7 365 | Last updated 11/18/14
This particular play would've been cooler had the Cavaliers maintained the three-point lead that it gave them, but hey, a dunk on two Spurs is a dunk on two Spurs. Austin Carr thought it was fantastic, and it's not like he's ever been known to be overly excitable. Something every NBA fan should know: CJ Miles the… um… adult film star has more Twitter followers than CJ Miles the basketball player. Nearly five times as many, in fact. So, if for any reason you are ever in search of CJ Miles information, just proceed with caution. Especially in a work setting. Honorable mention to Joakim Noah.

Hi, first of all, great plugin :)
When I add a custom field to a custom post type, in my template only appears the value for the field, but not the field name.
Ie. I have a custom field called "translation", with value "blabla" in my template I should see "translation: blabla", instead I only see "blabla".
I hope to be clear.
And also a suggestion, it would be great to have a shortcode for an entire custom field group instead to add custom field one by one.

Moundsville Things to Do
The Marx Toy Museum is a fun place to visit with your family and take a trip down memory lane. The Marx Toy Company was the largest toy company in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s, and its main facotry was located in Glen Dale, the town immediately north of Moundsville. The museum was started by a local toy collector, and features thousands of toys and Marx memorabilia. As children of the 1960s and 1970s, we remeber Marx for its Big Wheels and Rock Em Sock Em Robots toys. The museum has these and hordes of other Marx toys, including toy soldier sets, cowboy and Indian sets, dolls and dollhouses, trains, cars and trucks, mechanical metal toys, etc. The museum also has a 1950s themed refreshment room, where you can enjoy some popcorn and soda while watching a video about the history of the Marx Toy Company.Related to:

Remember riding your Big Wheel down the neighborhood sidewalk in your childhood? Or playing Rock-em-Sock-em Robots? This museum, chock-full of Marx toys, is a wonderful place to spend a hour or two walking down memory lane. This extensive and well-displayed exhibit is a treat for all ages!

This burial mound, after which the town was named, was built over 2000 years ago by the Adena people, who used to live in the Ohio River Valley. It is over 60 feet tall and is one of the largest burial mounds from its era in North America. There is a small museum adjacent to the mound.Related to:

Moundsville Warnings and Dangers
I'll probably catch some heat for this one, and in no way do I mean to say this maliciously or with intent to be disrespectful, but from what I have heard and experienced, people in this area tend to be a little on the 'hillbilly' side. Dental plans may be discussed but appear not to be implemented and hygiene - questionable.
Now don't get me wrong but the overwhelming presence of beaten-up pick-up trucks and woodsmen gave me the feel that if you accidentally stepped on their property they'd shoot first and ask questions later. The population quota of 99.7% 'white' people may unfortunately tell you something as well.
The towns main attraction is the closed penitentary that you can tour, with full examination of the death row electric chair. Reputedly, and no doubtedly haunted as well.
If you consider yourself "different" or "unique" in ANY way do not go to Moundsville, although the people were nice, this is not a place for you to want to 'stand out'. Even the nearby Krishna temple - reknown for their peaceful way of life and understanding - has been vandalized on several occasions.
Excellent grip tires on your vehicle will make mountainous, winding roads safer. Go with a full tank of gas and a map. Travel is best during the daylight and John Denver tunes is a must.
