A week after Extreme Rules and following the WWE Draft we learned some pretty important things about the State of the WWE. Extreme Rules had some pretty surprising events happening and some not so surprising(Cena Winning, Again). The Draft probably had so many people with their own mock drafts picking where their favorite superstars would land, whether It would be Raw or Smackdown! Here are 10 things we learned after it was all said and done.
10 Things We Learned a Week after Extreme Rules
By John R. ,
With Legacy breaking up many wondered what would happen to Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes. The Draft saw Cody move to Smackdown while Ted remains on Raw and he seemed to be looking for some sort of alliance as he began to ask guys in the locker room to back him up. Rumors have been going around that Ted is indeed gonna have his own stable and most are saying that he will have his brother Bret DiBiase and the late Mr. Perfect's son Joe Henning. The stable is said to be named The Fortunate Sons as Ted mentioned the name a few weeks back. The name comes from all of them being fortunate, The DiBiase bros. for being rich and Joe henning for his father's genetics.
Arguably the best match at Extreme Rules, We saw a hooded man attack Rey and help Punk pick up a victory on Rey not once, but twice. Rumors are that the masked man is a part of the SES and is either Kaval/ Low Ki or Joey Mercury. One thing is for sure, this is a feud this is far from done and they will be going back and forth in the upcoming weeks leading to the Over the Limit PPV. We may find out who the hooded man is before then. Look for them to end their fued at Over the Limit and with all the fresh faces on Smackdown, for some new feuds.
HHH did a prety good job putting him over the past couple months and him putting The Game out of action definitely means Sheamus is gonna continue to be a main event player. He is now somewhat in the title hunt and has been going against the top guys for some time now. With all the new guys now on Raw it'll be just a matter of time before Sheamus is picking them out to solidfy him as one of the top heels in the business. Look for him to feud with Orton or possibly even Jericho. One thing is for sure, WWE isn't done pushing this guy.
Bad news for E&C fans all over. Most had Christian going to Smackdown to reunite the two former champs and possibly seeing them go for the gold one last time. I would have loved to see this but with Edge's recent Heel turn it made it pretty much impossible. The brawl made it perfectly clear the direction each of the two were going as Edge was leaving and Christian was arriving on the blue brand. Hopefully this will begin Christian's rise to the top as he along wit h Big Show are now the top faces of Smackdown! It's about time for a face World Heavywieght Champ.
If spearing the now Face Randy Orton wasn't enough it seemed WWE wanted to make it perfectly clear that Edge was going heel by brawling with his Best frieend Christian and insulting the WWE Univerese by calling them his "Puppets". While most people including myself love this move, It seems the fans didn't get it after Edge speared Orton last Monday. What a better way to solidify him as a heel then to go against his former partner Christian? We could possibly be seeing the "Ultimate opportunist" once again snake his way back to becoming WWE Champ.
Teddy Long seemed ecstatic about the acquisition of the "Giant Destroyer". I thought he would be on Smackdown to put some of the younger guys over but Teddy announced him as the number one contender for the World Heavyweight Championship. It's gonna be hard for Jack to retain against the big man but one thing for sure is that Show is now face. After knocking out Edge after his brawl with Christian, Y2J & Jack Swagger he seemed to get over pretty quickly with the fans. Show will either dominate Smackdown or help solidify Jack Swagger as a main event player.
Whether we like it or not, Batista has another shot at John Cena's WWE title. Rumors are that he is gonna work through the next month up to the Over the Limit PPV and then exit WWE. That being said, He couldn't possibly come out victorious against Super Cena. Rumors stated that he had been talking about leaving the company for some time now and when his role in an upcoming film was replaced by HHH, he wasn't too happy about it. This must've been the straw that broke that camel's back, because he hasn't resigned with WWE and his time is coming short. I wonder if WWE will make him go out in style or embarrass him again like they did at Extreme Rules.
This has a lot to do with why Raw has most of the top names of the business on their A show. Names like Cena, Batista, Edge, Y2J, HHH, JoMo & Miz are sure to bring in the ratings and thats exactly what WWE wants. the weeks leading to Wrestlemania the ratings compared to TNA were pretty good but they saw a big decline after each week following Wrestlemania. The solution? Bring more big names to Raw. The Draft saw WWE's ratings significantly while TNA's ratings were the worst they had had in a very long time. I'm not sure on the numbers but It was something terrible. This move by WWE should keep them even further ahead in the war for ratings on Monday nights. Not that they needed it or anything.
Smackdown lost some big names last Monday as they saw Edge and Jericho leave. They did recieve the Big Show but does that really make up for the loss? I think not. Show is on the decline and hasn't had a meaningful singles feud in some time. He is also not as mobile as he once was which would explain why he hasn't been in singles competition. Smackdown also recieved Kofi Kingston who may have had his career saved by jumping to the blue brand and Christian. I don't belive Kofi will be the top face just yet nor do I believe Vince will give Christian a title run after his jump to TNA then back to WWE. It seems as though Jack will rule over Smackdown for a while even with Show being number one contender.
We saw loads of top guys Drafted from Smackdown! to Raw leaving most fans to believe that Smackdown got the short end of the stick. These Superstars include Edge, Chris Jericho, John Morrison and R- Truth. While most would argue that the last two didn't really make much of an impact on the blue brand, I myself felt like this was a huge loss because these 4 were the reason I tuned in on Friday nights. Smackdown! picked up some good players that included Big Show, Christian, Kofi Kingston and MVP. Still, even with those names it seems like Smackdown has now become a show for mid carders to make a name for themselves(not that thats a bad thing).

How Healthy Are Your Pet's Teeth?
Imagine never brushing your teeth. How would your teeth look? How would your mouth feel?
Studies show that 50% of all dogs and cats have some form of periodontal disease. That number jumps to 75% when you look at pets over age three. Left untreated, periodontal disease can cause infection, pain and tooth loss over time. It can also lead to microscopic changes in the heart, liver and kidneys and can cause serious health problems for your pet.
At Kitsap Veterinary Hospital, we are committed to our patients' dental health and implement the highest quality dental care. We take a comprehensive approach to dental care including dental health assessment, treatment and prevention. We have state of the art dental equipment including digital x-rays to help diagnose disease that is below the gum tissue and therefore not always visible to the eye.
We recommend an annual dental healthcare examination for all pets - make an appointment or call us.

This was all decided from a smaller ultrasound. They have me going to a fetal diagnostics center Monday. I just want to be prepared with the right questions. And my doctor is also leaning towards this being a normal/ not high risk pregnancy. My appointments will not be any closer, no need to see another dr, except to get a good ultrasound. She said the only difference is to expect them between 36-38 weeks, ultrasound to check heartbeats so she knows whose is whose and more weight gain. But everything I have read says seeing a doctor every 2 weeks to watch for TTTS. This was the same doctor who at 14 weeks told me there was no chance of twins and at 18 weeks asked if I was aware I was having twins :/

X 11/06, E 08/11 SPD, G1 & G2 08/12 30w2d, TTTS survivors. Expecting! 3/25/16
I am also pregnant with Di/Mo twins. We have over 95% chance of them being identical, but no guarantee until blood work is done after birth. In a rare case, two placenta's actually fused together way early on and formed one placenta... I've read that an ultrasound tech can often see where they fused, I'm not for sure though because the techs I've had have all said they can't. I did find out it's 2 boys so we and my doctor are now just referring to them as identical. Not like you'd plan any differently though. Buy matching outfits I suppose, but I'm not into all that anyhow so it doesn't change a thing.
There is a greater risk of TTTS since they share a placenta, but that's not a given. So no need to worry now, until they tell you otherwise. And like she girl above me responded, they are looking very carefully for signs of this so they can catch it early on and take care of your sweet babies. My little guys are both measuring exactly the same. I have a high risk ultrasound Monday morning for more in depth measurements and will continue to have them monthly/biweekly as time goes on. Because of the 2 sacs, they can't get tangled in their cords, together, which is very dangerous and can be fatal... so there's a PLUS for you! I've seen two doctors this pregnancy, switched at 17 weeks, and both were very pleased to see two sacs. Definitely a good thing!
As for delivery, I talked about vaginal delivery with my doctor and she's all for it! As long as both babies are head down we'll just go naturally. She said we could try with one baby head down and the other not, but the risk of an emergency c-section jumps way up, because often times than not baby B won't turn head down and can't get turned. I know my stress level will be through the roof, so I'm making the decision that if only one is head down, or neither of course, we'll schedule a c-section. She is very confident in me getting a natural birth safely. She did say we would deliver in the operating room, just in case something were to happen, which makes me more comfortable knowing we wouldn't have to be wheeled off wasting time! I've never heard of a type of twin being unable to deliver naturally.
I will add, like I mentioned before, I switched doctors half way through my pregnancy. My previous doctor had been delivering babies for over 15 years and had many many twin births, however we didn't meet eye to eye when it came to the delivery plan. He schedules c-sections... period. Wouldn't try a natural delivery, gave me an hour long lecture as to why I'd pretty much be a bad mother if I even thought to try naturally, blah la la... Thankfully We live smack dab in the middle of two Level III NICU Hospitals. I simply told them we preferred the other, that he wasn't licensed with, haha. My doctor now, I actually went to 3 different doctor consultations before choosing her, is A-MAZING. Definitely worth the uncomfortable conversation of leaving Dr. Jerk. If you aren't totally happy with your OB, look into other doctors. Trust your instincts. Momma's know best. All of the doctors I met with say twins are considered high risk, even if it's an easy breezy pregnancy.

I start a list of questions the day I get home from my visit practically, I make a note on my phone, because I know I'll remember my phone, rather than a piece of paper. Ha! Also, it doen't seem right that you are pg w/ di/mo twins and they STILL aren't going to do more ultrasounds??? The risk of ttts is too high, still not a given, by any means, but these are your babies, I'd be on the phone looking for a new doc already. I have an ultrasound with my OB each visit, but also see my high risk doctor between my OB's visits, and she does them too. For the very reason to be sure everything is good. You really can't just assume in this situation.

i agree with what everyone says..i have the lowest risk twins possible di/di and even i get an ultrasound once a month (ie every 4 weeks)..my ob doesnt do u/s on my simply because i see MFM at the same time and they do it..she is kinda trying not to i guess "run up the bills" for me lol..plus why do i need two u/s in the same week each month ..sure it'd be lovely but it's not necessary..but she does check the heart beats and if something was off i know she'd send me down the hall for a scan ..but..because it is twins and even though i have the lowest risk..thats the other reason they dont do scans..simply because it's twins..the way the u/s techs explained it to me is that MFM is there for a reason..bc twins are automatically "high risk" even if like me u have the lowest risk set..so they arent trained in twinning but MFM is..so instead of doing scans there and them possibly missing something the specialists office is the only office that does them and they are evaluated by a specialist and the specialist tells my OB how they are progressing..
so ..even though i have the lowest risk set (that's what they call them lol) i still get seen once a month by 2 different docs AND the specialists does an u/s every time..with you being di/mo you should definitely be being seen more than me by atleast one of those docs and they should be doing scans..especially because of TTTS..(usually it's ur MFM that will be the increased visits is my understanding by most ladies here)..but sometimes the OB ups their visits too..
call your MFM office and ask them about it because well like everyone else is saying..THEY ARE SPECIALISTS and they are there for a reason..just because ur OB thinks u can progress as a single baby doesnt mean you can..MFM should atleast be seeing you more and I would go based on what they say..if they say the same as your OB..I would swap docs ASAP and specialists because well..i hate to say this but you're on a higher risk side of twins and you should definitely be seen more..atleast for your own peace of mind and to constantly check those babies :D
I have mo/di twins and am being monitored every 2 weeks as per my very good MFM with the Cleveland Clinic. If you have mo/di twins, you should absolutely be getting U/S scans every two weeks to monitor for TTTS, hopefully starting at 16 weeks (though it is more rare to develop that early so if you're a little later don't worry too much). They aren't just any ultrasounds 'take a quick peek and check heartbeats' either; they are fairly lengthy and they measure the following key indicators:
- Relative size/growth of the twins in grams (hopefully <20% difference measured by (big baby weight - little baby weight)/(big baby weight) - though a larger difference isn't a sole indicator for TTTS/other issues necessarily. Mine are 16% right now at 19w.)
- The largest amniotic sac for each twin (normal is between 2cm and 8cm -- when you have one baby smaller and one larger that is a TTTS indicator)
- Checking that bladders for both babies are visible
- Checking the umbilical cord flow using Doppler.
If these things are not being monitored every 2 weeks, you should 100% switch doctors and/or get referred to an MFM. See http://www.tttsfoundation.org/questions_explained.php for more info on these questions and why they are important.
Note that chances are, EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE. TTTS only has about a 15% chance of developing. That being said though, 15% is not some miniscule number, unfortunately for us. It happens, and if they catch it soon enough, the prognosis for your LO's is much much much much much better than not finding it until later.
Also, the current research out there recommends delivering between 34-36 weeks for mo/di twins. My MFM said this and I also found papers on PubMed to support this as it did sound strange to me at first. Finally my MFM told me that a vaginal birth is "encouraged" if both heads are down, "not possible" if baby A is breech (increased risk with placental rupture, etc. to deal with for mo/di twins), and "my choice" if A is head-down but B is not. My choice is going to be c-section if that is the case because I really don't want the double-whammy if I can avoid it, and with the shared placenta it is more "controlled" to do c-section and less risk to the babies...
Please make your current OB refer you to an MFM or switch doctors!!! Almost everything in your post is in contrast to what my MFM has said... and you need the best care for your babies!!!!

In brief: Some Valley signage to be banned
The Spokane Valley City Council moved Tuesday to restrict signs in the city center district envisioned by the Sprague-Appleway Revitalization Plan.
By informal consensus, the council called for a ban on sandwich board signs, electronically animated signs and billboards within the proposed urban center. Time-temperature signs and signs with text messages that scroll across a screen aren't considered animated.
Existing billboards in the city center zone could be moved under an existing city ordinance that prohibits additional billboards but allows existing ones to be relocated to appropriate zones when they require renovation.
Animated signs would be allowed all along Sprague Avenue.
No final action on signs or any other part of the revitalization plan will be taken until the council releases a final draft and conducts a public hearing.

The library must vacate its current location at 1421 N Meadowwood Lane by the end of the month. Library director Pamela Mogan hopes the library will open at its new, larger location on March 2. "We're going to try," she said.

The second round of World Cup 2010 brought the first heavyweight clash of the competition, unless you count the insipid , group match where Brazil and Portugal played out a cynically, manipulated 0-0 draw that allowed both teams to qualify.
Two old adversaries squared up in Bloemfontein on Sunday and four days on from the latest instalment of England versus Germany , the English remain punch drunk and bemused by yet another failure at international level of the "Golden Generation " and are looking for someone to blame.
Naturally , the referee and linesman are prime suspects, following one of the worst refereeing decisions at an international tournament in living memory. They can be the only two people who did not think Frank Lampard's shot had crossed the line, thus denying England an ill deserved but crucial equaliser just before half time. Going in level at the interval, the initiative would have been with the three lions and they would not have had to chase the game.
Perhaps, but England were only trailing by a goal at the restart , there was no need for them to embark on the sort of senseless kamikaze attacking play , reminiscent of the Japanese Imperial Air Force circa 1944!
Wave after wave of desperate English attacks foundered around the German penalty box and it was only a matter of time before their opponents capitalised. Not since Lord Cardigan led the British cavalry headlong towards the Russian guns at Balaclava have such futile , senseless tactics been employed. The slick, counter- attacking Germans took full advantage, inflicting on the English their worst defeat in a World Cup . Indeed there was more danger of Thomas Muller following over from laughing than anyone in red preventing him from scoring the third and fourth goals.
It is no surprise then, that coach Fabio Capello has also borne the brunt of criticism. Hired at a cost of £6m per year to install some discipline to the squad and finally deliver on the promises this team has been making for eight years, he has severely damaged his reputation during the debacle. Rumours of unrest in the camp and stories of David Beckham having to intervene to prevent an altercation between Steven Gerrard and John Terry undermined his supporter's claims that his man management skills would be a valuable asset in the campaign and Capello's trusted 4-4-2 formation , which had brought him so much success over the past two decades seemed particularly ineffective against the fashionable 4-2-3-1 tactics adopted by many of the nations at this tournament, including Germany. The English midfield appeared to be overrun on several occasions as Frank Lampard and Gareth Barry seemed unable or unwilling to followed the energetic and willing Teutonic runners .
Another criticism that can be levelled at Capello is one which plagued his immediate predecessors, Sven Goran Erikson and Steve McLaren: that there were too many " sacred cows" in the squad that the coach was unwilling to sacrifice. On the morning of the game, former Scottish international Craig Burley suggested that Capello should consider dropping Wayne Rooney , who looked unfit and out of sorts , but Burley doubted that the Italian had the guts to make such a big decision in a such a vitally important match. This column agrees with Burley and suggests that Lampard, who has rarely replicated his Chelsea form in the white shirt should also have been dropped ,allowing two sitting midfielders and three attackers to play behind a lone striker .
It is almost inconceivable that Capello would be wary of benching his top stars, given his reputation for ruthlessness at Milan and Real Madrid where several top dogs, including David Beckham,
were brought to heel , if not neutered. However, this does seem to be the case and the team lined up as expected , with the usual suspects in place.
Also , the aforementioned second half tactics employed by England in Bloemfontein were unrecognisable from the ones Capello has favoured throughout his managerial career. The cavalier replaced the cautious, which may suggest that the players decided to ignore their coach's half time instructions and improvised, to disastrous effect. It would certainly explain Don Fabio's manic facial expressions and frantic hand gestures on the touchline!
The long English season, without the winter break that is common in most other European countries is also blamed for the lifeless performances of the team. Unlike the majority of their continental rivals, English clubs play in two domestic cup competitions. With the expanded European competitions, it is surely time for the meaningless League Cup to be abolished and the twenty team Premiership to be cut to a more manageable size. It can be no coincidence that the majority of top players who missed the World Cup, Essien, Ballack. Ferdinand, Bosingwa, or struggled for fitness during the tournament: Rooney, Torres, Drogba, play in the English top division, widely regarded as the most physically demanding in the world. But others such as Tevez of Argentina a Kuyt of Holland appear not to have been affected by the rigours of a Premiership season.
The bottom line however , is that this squad is not very good ! For all the hype and excitement of the Premiership, there are not enough good English playersplaying in it and those that do, lack the tactical flexibility evident in other national teams. While Lukas Podolski or David Villa nominally, centre forwards, can adapt to playing on the German or Spanish left flanks respectively, Steven Gerrard, a midfield player, clearly cannot when asked to do so for England. John Terry, allegedly one of the best defenders in the world, ran about like a headless chicken, unable to deal with a British style punt from the goalkeeper that led to Germany's first goal, nor the more sophisticated and intelligent play of Mesut Ozil and Thomas Muller. Ozil plays in a position completely alien to the English game, in the "hole " between the midfield and the striker, and which seems to baffle every English defence that encounters it. Ronaldinho for Brazil in 2002 and Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo in 2006 have caused English back fours all sorts of problems.
In those two tournaments, England were expected to play a lot better than they did and progress beyond the quarter final stages,but could not . Add to those disappointments, a quarter final exit in the 2004 European Championships and a failure to qualify for that competition two years ago and it is a wonder that the nation retained such confidence in this team. Sadly for them it was misplaced. The "Golden Generation" were made of iron pyrite after all.

I'm down to my last red cent here
I know when the bidding's low and
No one is buying
I know how the breaks go
And I got off easy
But who are you
To tell me not to cry
I heard from a little bird
You burned your house down
Fires always followed you wherever you go
I know it was pretty low
To leave you there but
You'd have done the same if opportunity knocked
I'll tell you something if it makes you feel better
I spend my evenings with cheap beer and a wand, ha!
Look out the window
At the weeds now growin over
Rows and rows of hearts I had impaled in the lawn
You were my bleeding heart
Why don't you tear me apart
I stole a line from you to get me started
I stole a rhyme or two but baby that's art
Can't do a thing for you but watch you fall apart oh,
Blame it on me, blame it on me, my bleeding heart
My bleeding heart
My bleeding heart
My bleeding heart

In Reach for the Sky you move your balloon to the left or right by tapping on the respective side of the screen. The balloon moves up with the help of hot air, which you must grab as it drops from the sky. You must ensure that you have just the right amount of hot air to keep progressing. Too little of it will sink your balloon while too much of it will propel the balloon so high that you won't be able to see incoming obstacles such as birds and helicopters.
Reach for the Sky is a game that some Windows Phone gamers may be familiar with.

Ā My LO has her 2 month check-up on Monday.. I am considering doing the Dr. Sears alternate vaccine schedule to avoid giving her so many shots at once..... Has anyone used this schedule or intend to?..
Dr. Sears alternate vaccine schedule...

We did with my ODD and am doing it again with this one.
My Ped said as she wishes we would vaccinate on schedule if she had to choose another schedule Dr. Sears is the one she would choose.┬Ā It gives our LO's the most important ones first!
I'm confident in this decision.┬Ā And it's not ONLY because of the Autism scare, but also because I think it's way too many shots at one time for our LO's body to handle.┬Ā Then when/if they have a reaction which vaccine caused it?┬Ā WHO KNOWS, because they got 6 shots!!

There is a great article in "Parenting Early Years" magazine about vaccines and the myths written by the AMerican Academy of Pediatrics.┬Ā You may want to take a look.
Wife to Shaun (8/05) and Mom to C (10/08), L (1/11), Angel Baby (5/13), and H (4/14)
My baby has her appointment tomorrow and I am also planning on doing the alternate schedule. ┬ĀThere are so many more shots now than when we were growing up.
My mom told me that we would get a fever after our shots, so I would like to give her the least amount possible at a time. ┬ĀMy baby will not start daycare until August so I feel good about spacing them out.

Yes, I base my shots off of that schedule. I am a tad flexible though, and with the pertussis scare, DD got 3 shots this time at her 2 months. PC, HIB and DTAP.┬Ā She will get rotovirus at 3 months. My ped switched around the 2/3, 4/5 and 6/7 month shots (going by memory). I also do get the varicella and flu shots when appropriate.

"One thing I like about jazz, kid, is that I don't know what's going to happen next. Do you?" - Bix Beiderbecke
This topic was on Dr. Oz not long ago and they said that at one of the doctors offices that did this one of the children on the alternate schedule had gotten measles or one of the viruses and was in the waiting room and passed it to a newborn who was too young to have gotten his shots.┬Ā It just makes me mad that people are inconsiderate enough to not think about other peoples children as well.┬Ā People have been doing these vaccines for years and the chances of something happening are slim to none!
I disagree with going against what my doctor says is best for my baby (for the most part- not always the case).┬Ā They treat hundreds of children each year.┬Ā To each his own and I'm not going to tell anyone what to do, but I'm getting my child vaccinated on time.┬Ā If he got any virus that could have been prevented I would NEVER forgive myself.

My LO is getting most of his vaccs. We will skip Hep B (until he is much older), but that will probably be the only one for now. My ped is cool with the Dr. Sears schedule though and has actually said I have more flexibility since I EBF and LO won't be going to any type of childcare. We will be spacing out the vaccs so that LO only gets one vacc at a time. I think vaccs are very important and do not believe in the anti-vacc movement. Personally I think that is a bunch of BS, especially since the vacc/autism link was proved to be fraud. I do think spacing them out is good though, mainly if LO has an allergic reaction to a vacc we will know which one it is. Also to not overload his immune system is a good thing IMO.

Wife to N (Jul 2005 wedding) and Mama to L (Jan 2011 baby) and N (May 2014 baby).
My ODS had a TERRIBLE reaction to vaccinations when he was a baby. I will be doing the Dr. Sears alternate schedule with this LO. I talked to my Ped and she asked many questions on WHY I choose to delay them. After all of our disccussion she decided it was all valid, and she agrees with my choice as a mother. We did rotate a few of them around, but we both are happy with an outcome. A fully vaccinated child. I am not selfish in wanting to make sure he is not only healthy in the long run, but in the short term as well. Yes, ODS is alive, but he was very sick for several weeks after being pumped full of so many chemicals at a time, that his tiny body couldn't handle it.
If you choose to vaccinate on schedule good for you, if you choose to delay again good for you for making an informed decision. Hell I don't care if you don't vaccinate either. As long as you do what you believe is best fr YOUR child.

Did you wear your retainer?
September 22nd, 2011, 10:44 PM
... I didn't. Although my teeth still look fine, I have a bit of an overbite from not wearing my retainer, lol.
What about you?

September 22nd, 2011, 11:36 PM
I don't wear retainers because I don't have one but I might be getting braces soon D:
September 22nd, 2011, 11:44 PM
I have braces, they're such a drag.
September 23rd, 2011, 12:10 AM
yes, i did.
but i didn't wear them on the intervals my dentist told me to, though.
i removed them whenever i ate, yes, but i didn't put them back on until a few hours later.
September 23rd, 2011, 12:20 AM
I just got braces over two weeks ago, I'll get a retainer once their off in 9 months

I used to wear braces when I was 12 but not retainers.
September 23rd, 2011, 12:51 AM
I have retainers, even though I'm not wearing them right now. I got the retainers after having braces for 2 years.
September 23rd, 2011, 7:32 AM
Nope, I didn't, and one of my teeth ended up a little crooked because of it. You can't really even tell and everything else looks fine so it didn't do me any harm.
Shiny Celebi
September 23rd, 2011, 7:33 AM
I would forget to wear it sometimes and then, I lost it. Unfortunately my teeth moved. Now I need some kind of braces again.
September 23rd, 2011, 7:55 AM
Ha. I wore them everyday for like 2 months after I got my braces out. Honestly, I haven't worn them in ages, and I have noticed my teeth moving back, so I'll probably have to wear them more. My teeth look normal for now though.
September 23rd, 2011, 11:44 AM
I got my braces off two months ago, and I have worn my retainer every night since. My retainer only has to be worn at night so I have no problem wearing it.
September 23rd, 2011, 12:04 PM
I'm not done with my braces, but I guess I will wear my retainer once I get one.
September 23rd, 2011, 12:15 PM
I never got braces or a retainer. Maybe I should/should've. :\
September 23rd, 2011, 1:04 PM
Nah, I never actually needed them.
My teeth all grew up normally, for once. I have other issues with them, though. xD
Uh-Oh, Ho-Oh!
September 23rd, 2011, 1:08 PM
I'm supposed to wear mine every night... but eh, I don't. I havent stopped wearing it completely though, I just stopped doing it every night.
Mr Cat Dog
September 23rd, 2011, 1:09 PM
After my braces were removed, I had to wear a permanent retainer for about a year... so, me being the rule-abiding teenager that I was (my parents were always worried that I never really rebelled against anything), I did so. Then the retainer became a non-permanent one, only to be worn at nights... then every other night... then once a week, until I don't have to wear it any more, now! (The orthodontist said to get the best results, I should wear it once a month forever but... no. Just no. That ain't happening.)
It's been about 5 years since that last period of retainer-ship, and my teeth are still going great. Thanks orthodontic!
September 23rd, 2011, 3:54 PM
Nope. Never had braces or a retainer. Looking back, I shouldn't have been a wuss and gotten braces, because my bottom teeth look weird. But I mean, if I smile, it's not like you see them so okay whatever. But yeah never had retainers or braces and if I got them now I'd feel lame so yeah bye.
September 23rd, 2011, 5:51 PM
Thanks for reminding me that I need these. Got braces off without getting them Complicated sit.

I've been pretty lucky with my teeth and never had to wear braces or retainers, or tbh had to have any real sort of dental care at all. Although if it was recommended to me, I don't really know if I'd wear a retainer; while they're used for a good reason they just look so uncomfortable.
Snow Phoenix
September 25th, 2011, 5:10 AM
I've never needed the extra dental assistance :3 I have great teeth! Mwahaha ;3 One of the few things I'm proud of to be honest :/
September 25th, 2011, 8:10 PM
I still wear mine. After all the time, money, and discomfort, I sure as hell don't want to undo everything.
I would wear it just about every night when I slept; except for a handful times where I forgot. But, I was told now to just wear it every other night instead, so I guess it didn't matter.
Shining Raichu
September 25th, 2011, 8:56 PM
When I was 10-11 I had plates to correct an overbite - not sure if that's the same thing as a retainer but I had one for the top of my mouth and one for the bottom. I wore them all the time at first but in the end I wore them less and less because they were absolutely disgusting. Also I used to play with them in my mouth so I'm not sure how much good they did. My overbite is gone now though, if that's any indication - and I never needed braces!
September 25th, 2011, 9:29 PM
I never needed braces or a retainer. I recently got some wisdom teeth out, and my bottom teeth at the side rotated slightly but have settled. They still look straight to anyone but I can feel it when I floss *super picky*.. but I wouldn't need braces for them.
September 26th, 2011, 2:43 PM
Yes, but not by choice. I have a permanent retainer cemented to my bottom four front teeth. >___> It was probably supposed to be removed years ago but I can't afford to get them removed if I can.
I ditched my top retainer years ago. Wore it nightly for awhile until I got bored of it, basically.
September 26th, 2011, 4:41 PM
Never needed them because the orthodontist said I didn't need any /thread

This is what happened to me. 8D I had a permanent retainer for years (since I was... 14 or so?) and then earlier this year I got it taken out so I could instead wear a top and bottom retainer just at nights. After a few weeks I stopped wearing it altogether. I wear them once a month, I guess, but I haven't noticed any difference in my teeth so I think I'm probably free from them.
:P It was actually MCD who convinced me once and for all to switch when he mentioned his wonderful habits on Twitter.

They say that well organized person can be comfortable anywhere, even in hell. Along those lines a well-planned menu system makes a world of difference to the comfort of your site's visitors. Drupal comes with three built-in menus and allows you to create new ones. We will show you how. To change your menus, go up to Administer and Menus. As I mentioned Drupal comes with three menus built-in, Navigation that is the menu along this left hand side, Primary links which is the menu up here and Secondary links, which is another level that goes right near the Primary menus.
Menu links only appear if you have permissions to use the links. For example here is the Administrative user; we see this link called Administer. However the ordinary user fishyjoe does not. We can take a look at that by switching to Firefox where we have fishyjoe logged in. To change the programs we hold down the Command key and hit Tab on the Mac and you see there is no Administrative menu here. We will switch back to your Administrator now. Let us take a look at how these Menus are constructed by clicking on the Navigation link here. As you can see it is a hierarchical menu. So for example we have a link for Blogs and then inside it My blog. Now that particular link is disabled. We will be enabling it later, so you can see how that affects the Menus.
You can move these items around, so for example right now we have Feed aggregator underneath Create content, but let us see want to put it top. We will go down and find Feed aggregator, there it is and grab the little arrow icon and drag it above Create content like so. That little asterisk tells you that it would not take effect until you hit Save. We do that by going to the bottom of the page and clicking Save Configuration. There, now you see exactly as we expected Feed aggregator is above Create content, but what about the Blogs item here. We click on enabled if you we want to turn it on and scroll down to the bottom and save one more time. And now we see Blogs up here. You will notice that Blogs is different from My Account because has this little turned down triangle next to it. What that means as when you click on Blogs you can see an item underneath it.
But what if you always want to see that item underneath it? Let us go back to Administer and Menus and Navigation to affect that menu. This item here Expanded means it will always appear open so you can see its child items. We will click on Expanded, scroll to the bottom again and click Save Configuration. There now no matter where we are in the Menu we see My Blog underneath Blogs. Let us go and edit that menu item by clicking on edit under Operations. As it happens Blogs is one of the menu items that is built-in and in fact all of the items under Navigation are built-in since we have not added any of our own custom menu items. You can also tell a built-in item because you cannot change the path. It is hard coded in to Drupal.
However you can change other item such as its weight that is to say, where it appears in the hierarchy whether the top or bottom. Its description, which is text that appears when you hover over the link, and some other things, again Enabled and Expanded. You can also change its Parent item. If for example we wanted to put Blogs underneath My account, we would click on this drop-down menu, go down to My account and click on Save. We do not actually want to do that. So we are going to change that back to Navigation and click Save. While we have this hierarchical structure in the navigation menu we do not actually have the same thing in our Primary links.
Let us take a look at that. We will do that by going back to Administer Menus or just this little shortcut here Menus, then click on Primary links. Here we see the two items that we added earlier. Let us say that we wanted Contact us to be underneath About Us. What we would do as with other screens in Drupal where you can drag and move things about is grab that arrow icon move it inward a little bit, so it creates a hierarchy. Click on Save configuration and because we do not have a hierarchy in the Primary links, it simply disappears. You cannot reach it. We are going to move it back out again, so you can see it. The changes that you make here will affect all users.
So let us switch again to fishyjoe and take a look at what his menus look like. To do so we reload the page by going back to the Home Page and you could see now he has Blogs and My blog and of course clicking on those take you to the places that you expect. Let us switch back to the Administrative interface again. There is another place that you can enter items to put into Menus and that is when you create content. I will show you how to do that. Click on Create content and then let us say, a Blog entry. You have the Title and Blog post categories. Let us just create a very simple thing here. My thought about the recent election and we will have that under Lifestyle. And we would enter in the body whatever it is that we are going to enter there. But first let us take a look at Menu settings. We want this to be in a menu that is up at the top. That is why I think it is very important that is goes up here, but instead of being at the same level as Primary Menus we want it in the Secondary links.
So we will change this Parent item to secondary links and let us say election thoughts. We will leave the Weight alone for now. Go down to the bottom and click Save. Now we have our Election thoughts link right up here and clicking on it goes to the page as we expected to. I am going to go back and edit that up. We can edit any menu item by going back to Administer and Menus. That one since it is in the Secondary links will be under here and then of course it is easy to edit or delete by clicking there.
As with everything else on Drupal it asks us to confirm before we delete. We say, yes and as you notice it is gone. There is one another thing to cover. In Administer and Menus and that is this little tag up here, Settings. As you can see it is a very short page and the second two items Primary links and Secondary links here are usually not changed because of course you want Primary links to go to Primary links and not Secondary links or Navigation unless you are doing some custom theming. However this first one is the place that the Menu will automatically go unless you change it when you create new content and decide that you want to put it into a Menu. I will show you that by going Secondary links and Save configuration and then Create content again, Blog and Menu settings. See now the default is Secondary links. Menus are especially helpful when you are building authoritative content driven sites when you want specific content very accessible to members in a Menu.
Menus are great for helping things on your site stand out, but as with all neat toys in Drupal be careful not go overboard. If you put too many menu choices on your site they all blend into a gray mass and nothing stands out, but with restraint a few judiciously placed menus make important information and your site much more accessible.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck co-scripted and star in this drama, set in Boston and Cambridge, about rebellious 20-year-old MIT janitor Will Hunting (Damon), gifted with a photographic memory, who hangs out with his South Boston bar buddies, his best friend Chuckie (Affleck), and his affluent British girlfriend Skylar (Minnie Driver). After MIT professor Lambeau (Stellan Skarsgard) stumps students with a challenging math formula on a hallway blackboard, Will anonymously leaves the correct solution, prompting Lambeau to track the elusive young genius. As Will's problems with the police escalate, Lambeau offers an out, but with two conditions -- visits to a therapist and weekly math sessions. Will agrees to the latter but refuses to cooperate with a succession of therapists. Lambeau then contacts his former classmate, therapist Sean McGuire (Robin Williams), an instructor at Bunker Hill Community College. Both are equally stubborn, but Will is finally forced to deal with both his past and his future.

One of those movies, you saw a little bit of but never the whole thing. Then finally you see the whole thing and you find its a pretty good movie. Especially the performances are really good.
Very good movie wow Matt was so cute with that blonde hair and that accent, I would recommend this movie to anyone !!!!
Set in culturally colorful and brutal, predominately Irish South Boston, Will Hunting is a tortured genius always in scuffles with his past, his love, and the cops. This is a major keeper in a modern cinema that begs for deserving quality. Written by Affleck and Damon, it reflects also young genuises in writing that seems never to be realized unfortunately.
It was a movie about trust because the main character, Will Hunting, had trouble with attachtment and pushed everyone away before he can earn someones trust. This movie was a comming of age story because Will realizes that everything that has happened to him while growing up wasn't his fault. My favorite character was the therapist, Sean, because he helped Will find what he was and wanted in his life.
This movie was of especial interest to me because in many ways my background parallels that of Will Hunting. It is a good story, with good acting, but what spoils it for me is the fact that the psychologist waves his magic wand and Will Hunting is cured - well, almost. The truth is, it takes years and years and years to leave behind a war zone childhood. Also, when traumatized, it is nearly impossible to excel academically because of the baggage, stress and anxiety of surviving. If you are in a war for 15 years, and the guns suddenly stop, how long before you accept the fact that you don't have to duck when there is an explosion? The opportunity to explore the impact of a horrible childhood on a potentially great intellect was blown in the interest of a pure hollywood ending. I am over 60 and am still in the process of leaving the war zone even though the guns stopped firing over 45 years ago.
This movie is about trust.In the beginning, It looks like Will trusts his friends, but it was not actually a trust, It was more loyality.Will does not trust anyone because he was an orphan.His original parents had abandoned him. Will has a moment of catharsis when Robert Williams said, "It's not your fault." Over and over.Will realized every thing that did happen to him didn't happen beacuse of him.It help his renewal for living.He goes to California to find his .At end of the movie,he figure, she did really love him.
This movie was a great achievemnet to the Academy of Movies and a great movie for viewers over the age of 10. Powerful and intriging moments with a hint of emotion. Robin Williams was outstanding as his role in the movie. Ben Affleck gave his best performance ever although thats not saying much. Matt Damon was Oscar worthy for his role. Over all the movie was worth watching time and time again.
Trust is very important in every relationship because it helps you to understand the feelings of the people in your life. It can also help you to express your feelings. Will discovers that he is a good person and the troubles that he went through wasn't his fault. Robin Williams was my favorite character, he tried to show the behavior of a person Will could trust.
Although the picture shown here is the ''Collector's Edition'' and it shows a lengthy features list, this is actually the featureless standard edition. Do not order it unless you want the standard edition. I ordered it months ago and complained, but they still haven't fixed it.
The use of the F-word is almost crucial here, as this is a commentary on society today. In the social circles examined here, the words are believable and not ''over-written''. Let's face it, for better or worse, this is how many communicate, especially in Southie! :) That aside, this movie comes highly recommended as an inspiration to anyone who has ever been taught or teaches - that would be all of us, right?
The movie was about trust because all of the things that Will went through. It shows why he didnt trust anyone and who he could trust. This is also a comming of age story. Will discovered who he is and all the things that happened to him are not his fault. He realizes that somebody can love him for who he is. Will was my favorite actor in the movie because he dealt with a lot and learned from it.
This was an excellent film although there were way too many unnecessary ''F-words'' in there. I can't recall one scene that didn't use the ''F-word'', but anyway, this movie was uplifting, funny, sad, clever, and wonderfully intelligent with brilliant performances from Robin Williams and Matt Damon. I recommend this title to the average moviegoer
This was a movie about trust because Will learned to trust Sean by testing him. He learned that all the things that had happened to him were not his fault. This is a story of coming of age. Will learns to trust and love others in his life. Matt Damen was my favorite character because he is a tuff person. He learned to see that he could trust someone.
this movie is awsome not appropriate for kids alot of cursing involved.But overall it is the best movie ever you gatta whatch it
Like the other reviewer, I too ordered this DVD thinking it had was the ''Collector's Edition'' shown on this page with the many features listed above. WRONG!!! You get the standard edition DVD, with only a small subset of the features (none of the following: deleted scenes, commentary, featurette, tv spots, best picture montage, etc.) Repeated attempts to get B&N to straighten this out have failed - I now possess 2 copies of the WRONG DVD version.
This was a movie about trust because that is something that the main character, Will, had trouble with. Once he learned how to trust he was able to start anew with a much better life. This is also a coming of age story because Will discovers that he is a good person and that he is able to trust. He realizes that what happened wasn't his fault and sees that people can love him back for who he is. My favorite character in the movie is the doctor, Sean. He is a wise person. He has gone through some of the same things that Will has gone through and is able to help him deal with it.
This movie teaches that you should trust peoplein your life. if you dont, you will lead a lonely life. This is a copmming of age story where Will realizes nothing was his fault, and that he can love and be loved. My favorite character was Will, because he reminds me of myself. Our lives are simliar, but still different; we have to go through a lot in our lives. So I am able to identify with him.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 162 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Carlos2222222 Wow what an amazing experience. .. Wow what an experience .. . this place is an old "convent" that has been converted into a wonderful hotel. My wife and I love SPG and especially the luxary collection and hotels like this are the reason why .. The service was top notch from Bruno (porter/bellman very friendly and attentive) to Claudia (Reception) and Ana (Reception) We were upgraded to suite 275 as we are SPG platinum and it was a wonderful room with beautiful terrace. . .what a treat. Would stay here again in heartbeat and cant wait till we come back here again! PS you need a car to stay here and definitely a place for people looking to get some R & R! October 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Vicnani Good experience We strongly recommend at least 2 night stay. The hotel and the region worth a detailed visit. August 30, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Vi73 Great Place to Stay The hotel is excellent with great rooms and big bathroom. The pools are great, the both outdoor and indoor! The restaurant is very nice. And the staff are so great!! July 18, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chad22 Spectacular Experience Everything about the hotel is top notch. The hotel has a 45 tour based upon the interesting and rich history of the monastery. The service was incredible and the staff was very helpful. The food at the restaurant for breakfast and dinner was exquisite, excellent, and delicious. The grounds are immaculate and beautiful. We highly recommend this hotel. June 23, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by MPA15 One of the best....... The Convento is one of the best hotels within the SPG portfolio. It's truly a hidden gem in Portugal. From the 2 amazing pools to the outstanding service, Evora and the Convento should be on everyone's must-list to visit. The Alentejo region of Portugal is full of adventure from the wineries, small towns, beautiful castles and cobble stone streets, we never wanted to leave. The service at the hotel is warm and inviting from the lovely General Manager, Maria to all the concierges/front deck: Ricardo, David, Luis, and Claudia; they made our stay memorable and so helpful with lost luggage/reservations/recommendations. The two pools and pool side cafe are a relaxing atmosphere to escape the "real-world" and enjoy your vacation. The nightly wine tasting was educational and friendly - I recommend going every night of your stay if you can. Divinus has delicious regional food and even the bar/pool side cafe has great food. Don't miss the 5pm tour of the hotel/church/grounds......and we loved staying in one of the older rooms with lots of character. This is a place in the world that is overlooked for Tuscany, Burgundy, Porto and Southern France.....but it should be on everyone's "must list" especially because it is less expensive, easy to get to, pure relaxation and very few tourists within Alentejo. I can't wait to come back! June 3, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by RRB1 Fantastic Property Among the very best stays our family has experienced. This unique historic 5-Star hotel exceeds expectations in every way. Suites are a perfect blend of original design with top-notch modern amenities. Food and wine prepared and served at the highest levels. Staff both knowledgeable and professional. May 9, 2015

Rated 5 out of 5 by Steffbg Fantastic All was as planned. All staff made our stay a memorable one. The rooms were beautifully decorated and had an amazing view. The Divinus Restaurant presented fantastic service and top quality food. The olive oil, made from Convento do Espinheiro olive's was such a treat. Congratulations for such an amazing get away.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bado71 Best Starwood Property in the World (To enhance the credibility of this review, please allow a prelude regarding my Starwood experience.) I am a multi-year Platinum member, having been to virtually every Westin and W Hotel in the USA, and several Starwood properties abroad--totaling around 225 different locations. My top Starwood stays include the St. Regis Princeville Resort in Kauai, St. Regis in Rome, Le Meridien in Phuket, St. Regis in Aspen, St. Regis in Monarch Beach, Parker Palm Springs and the incomparable Hotel Alfonso XIII in Seville. Convento do Espinheiro not only tops all of these Starwood properties, but is easily the best place I've ever stayed (tied with Dromoland Castle in Ireland). Convento do Espinheiro--in the shadow of medieval Evora, a walled city and Unesco World Heritage site--was actually a monastery for 400 years and comes with its own historic church, idyllic surroundings, sweeping views, cistern-turned-wine-room, wine-cellar-turned-restaurant, clanging sheep bells in the distance, several secret nooks and quirky stairways, and an incredible staff. The general manager, Maria, was charming and helpful; the sommelier Christiano was a real pro; and everyone from the front desk to the restaurant was amazingly attentive. Don't miss the 1,100-year-old olive tree, the sprawling grounds or nightly tour which includes wine tasting. Convento do Espinheiro should be a tourist destination in its own right. Indeed, the property's history is the subject of a well-researched book. It is unlike any Starwood hotel in that it achieves more than just a place of rest and leisure--the resort is truly transportive. I cannot give the Convento a stronger recommendation. Stop reading this and book your reservation. November 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by sq69 Our new favorite Starwood property We've just returned home from 4 days at this amazing, elegant former monastery. We loved exploring the beautifully restored hotel, highlighted by the original ornate chapel within the hotel; the daily 5:00 pm hotel history tour led by Claudia; the 6:00 pm wine tastings led by Alvaro, the wonderful food; our fabulous room in the historical section; as well as the hotel's entire gracious, helpful staff. Thanks, also, to Fabio, Danio, Joao and Maria. Although we hated to leave the hotel, Evora and the surrounding area has plenty to offer: Roman ruins in the center of Evora, a UNESCO World Heritage site; 6000-4000 year old megaliths; wine tastings and tours at nearby vineyards ( we enjoyed Herdade Do Esporao); more fortified medieval castles. We didn't have a chance to enjoy the pools or spa, but we will return for a longer stay next time! November 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Becos Wonderfull Personal This a 6 star hotel in everything. The staff deserves 7 stars. October 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Joseph26 An Oasis in our Journey Our two night stop in our eleven night itinerary was pleasantly refreshing. The setting was magnificent and the hotel thoroughly charming. We couldn't have been happier. A perfect spot to enjoy Evora and environs. Joseph and Bonnie October 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rosika Wonderful experience We felt like kings, as Gold members we were upgraded to a very nice Suite with a large terrace. We enjoyed this very much as we could eat all our meals on the terrace. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the tour around the Hotel which gave us a good insight about the history of the Hotel. We also liked very much other Features such as: indoor and outdoor pool, the very large garden, the wine tastings every evening which helped us to select our wine for the dinner. To give an Overall Rating as excellent is not enough, it was much better than just excellent. October 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by AP2014 week-end in Evora The hotel is great,excellent food, the place for a long week-end September 1, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Nel777 Delightful Getaway... Short stay in the hotel and was delighted with the attentiveness given from the staff from the time we enter right to the moment we left the hotel. Special mention to Joao Bilou for ensuring that all our needs are attended to; and also to Cristiano Santos for a wonderful exchange of conversation over the wonderful Portuguese wine during the wine tasting session! People with a warm and welcoming attitude are important and this hotel has lots of them! August 31, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ant1999 Very charming place to stay more than once! The hotel is excellent, from the staff to the amenities, service, breakfast and food in general. The rooms are impeccable, very well decorated and attractive. The front desk is also one of the highlights of the hotel. It is an historic building, and an ideal place to discover the city of Évora and all the Alentejo region. August 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Wayneandangela Very Special Place I've stayed twice. The hotel is remarkable. The staff is gracious and attentive. Fascinating historical site that has been renovated to elegance with a focus on comfort and beauty. This hotel is a favourite in a relaxing setting. We will return. Thank you. July 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by LorenzoR Excellent hotel, great staff This hotel is a gem in the beautiful Alentejo region. Not only is the staff most welcoming, competent and friendly, the property, which is located in an old convent is really stunning. The atmosphere, quietness and food, all ver, very good. I was there for a conference in Evora and could due to time constraints not take full advantage of all the hotel facilities (unfortunately no dinner in the restaurant), but i really enjoyed my stay and will definitely try to come back. The only minor downside could be that the hotel is not in walking distance of the nice and pittoresque town of Evora, but then it is only a 5 minute taxi-ride away... July 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MarkGlee Enjoyed everything this hotel offered We stayed only 1 night but thankfully we arrived early and felt we we were there longer. The staff we're most welcoming, the pool house was a wonderful place to enjoy lunch & dinner in the magnificent, original wine storage room was memorable. It was one of the best meals we experienced during our 10 days in Portugal. We stayed in the new modern wing and the room was most spacious with a balcony overlooking the garden.. We were given a free taxi ride in to the old town of Evora, as well as being picked up at a pre-arranged time by the same driver. It was more an 'experience' than a stay and we highly recommend this hotel. June 29, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by PC2883 Mixed Emotions The hotel did some wonderful things for us, but also did some things that left us very disappointed. Our biggest issue was with the transportation options listed on the hotel's site - we planned our trip around this. The hotel did pick us up from the bus station free of charge, as stated. However, the hotel never provided us transportation to the city. Every time we asked, the staff told us it was not available, even though their site has hours of operation for a complimentary shuttle. When we went to request transportation to the bus station the night before check out, we were told we would have to pay for a taxi. It was not until we said we were provided a free taxi at arrival and the staff saw that we were platinum that a free service was arranged. This was all such a disappointment to us. We asked the hotel to arrange a wine tour for us. After not hearing anything, we asked for a follow up. It seems as though no one had followed through. The hotel did do nice things, such as a welcome toast at check in and a bottle of wine for our room as a result of our status. June 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by dimitka Very interesting prop Every detail of this property was done with perfection. We staid in a old part of this hotel and enjoyed it every moment. Breakfast was one of the best we had in any other hotels. Staff and management very friendly and try to make all possible to satisfy our stay. The only small disadvantage was it location. After spending all day walking in Evora, the last thing I want to do was to drive back on a dark road. June 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Vincent07 extraordinary location modern Hotel which includes the old masonry of a former convent June 1, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by FMS0000 great pool Excellent hotel & spa for romantic weekend May 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by 02PR60 Heaven might be an improvement...but I doubt it. This "Convento" Hotel is possibly Starwood's finest hotel in the entire world (having experienced Starwood's best hotels on five continents). The extraordinary personal service by everyone starting with the new General Manager as well as the previous GM, the Front Office staff, the driver and the entire Bar and Restaurant staff-- they are the best. This was our 4th visit to this magnificent hotel and I can't wait to return again. May 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JADR Great experience! This hotel has a unique atmosphere, and is situated in beautiful grounds. The building is very interesting, and facilities well maintained. Staff were very friendly. Upon arrival we received a great deal of information, which was very helpfull during our stay in Evora. Unfortunately our stay was too short, but I would like to come back some day. May 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Antonio7 The place is unique, but the offer needs some fine tuning There was no SPG recognition, which I cannot understand. Even for Starwood points I had to ask... The breakfast is far from Starwood luxury collection, you should really improve that. I found it extremely basic and not healthy (orange juice was not fresh; a small toaster to service all guests; croissants heated in the kitchen microwave; ...among other things). Finally, the hotel was with a low occupancy rate, and the room that has been given to me was an old and back oriented one. I did not understand why...maybe because I used a voucher...but still it is not a good reason, I may say. The place is unique, but the offer was disappointing, specially if we are expecting a Starwood luxury collection standard. The SPA experience was very good. March 26, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by RuiFerro Sublime, as always Definitely an hotel where we can find a place to rest, a place where kids are welcome, where we can find the ancient history of Alentejo... at least once a year a place to go and recharge batteries. March 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JNFB This is a Unique Experience Hotel The perfect combination between the historical monument and the facilities accomadated thereon, and the excellent usage of the existing areas, along with the respect fot the orginal architecture.
