Pumpkin and Cranberry Scones With Cranberry Butter
READY IN: 37mins
Recipe by dawetl
Delicious served warm on a cool autumn day.
Top Review by Chef Jean
These were very good. Wonderful flavor but they were a little tougher than I like in a scone. I may have had something to do with that, but I think they ended up having just a bit to much liquid in the recipe.

I got 50 units of Botox for the forehead, crows feet, and eyes: 10 each eye, 20 frown line, and 10 forehead. My face only has just lines; not wrinkles. I did not get good results this time. I saw the powder, but how can I know if there are really 50 units? She it diluted in 1 cc.
In my previous procedures, the injectors would dilute more and made up to 3 shots on each eye; but this time she just applied 2 and concentrated in an area. Which method makes Botox be more well-applied or evenly distributed?
My previous treatments showed results in 24 hours; this time I have waited 5 days to see some results. What happened?

Work Puppy-Raising Balance
I've finally found a puppy and if everything goes well he'll be coming home early July. I work 8-5 (leaving home at 7 and getting back at 6) Monday through Friday. From what I understand I can't leave the puppy in his crate for that long. So what should I do?
Pay someone to come into our house and take the puppy out once or twice during the day?
You are correct, a puppy (I'm guessing eight weeks?) cannot go without a potty break for that long. Someone will probably have to let the pup out more than twice within the time you're gone.
I found a girl in my neighborhood that comes over and let's my puppy out 2-3 times a day Monday thru Friday. Spends about a hour each time with her. It works GREAT.
What some people do is set up an ex-pen attached to the front of the crate. You can then use a litter pan of some type for the pup to relieve itself. You can also ask the breeder to keep the pup a little bit longer. Some breeders offer this at an additional price and will start some training as well. I have my litter in a pen with a litter box and a couple crates. I just use wood shavings picked up from any farm supply store. Try to get the flakes and not the fine stuff. They also have water bottles (the type you would have for a rabbit) for puppies you can hang on the ex-pen.

What's up guys my name is Matty. I'm 24, live in South Carolina, and have been building cars since I got my license. To be honest, I'm really a dsmer. I used to own a 98 eclipse gst, but now I drive a 90 talon awd. The reason I joined this forum is because my boss has recently bought a 2004 wrx wagon for 7 grand, and now he wants me to build it to about 450 awhp, drive it for a while, then get it close to 600. It came already equipped with a b&m turbo back exhaust, and a gfm (i think) bov. Other than that and a short shifter, it's pretty much stock. I would really appreciate everyones advice, tips, and tricks so that we can reach our desired hp.
So far, this is the parts list we are ordering, please feel free to correct me if it's not efficient for what we're wanting:
Cobb access port
650cc top feed injectors
Turbosmart ebc
Hard ic piping kit
Cosworth cams
Bigger turbo, but haven't decided what (really don't want too big)
Titanium valve springs and retainers
Pics will be coming very soon!

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, 28, was charged on Tuesday with assault "occasioning actual bodily harm and affray" following an alleged fight outside a nightclub. His arrest happened in the early hours of Monday, just hours after he had scored twice in league-leading Liverpool's 5-1 win at Newcastle.
Gerrard was charged along with
two other men who had also been arrested following an altercation outside a bar in the coastal town of Southport. The venue's DJ, a 34-year-old local man, required hospital treatment after
suffering facial injuries.
In a statement, a Merseyside Police spokesman said: "Merseyside Police has charged Steven Gerrard, 28 years, of Formby, Sefton, John Doran, 29, and Ian Smith, 19 years, both from Huyton, Liverpool, with assault occasioning actual bodily harm and affray following an
incident at Bold Street in Southport in the early hours of Monday, December 29." The three men will appear in court January 23.
Gerrard has played for England 70 times. According to
the Daily Mail, the English FA has said that Gerrard's
national team place could be under threat if he is found guilty of a "serious criminal offense." His club, however, has pledged him its full support.

2013 USA Outdoor Track & Field Championships will be held at Drake
This will be the second time that Drake hosts the event, which is USATF's premier event for the selection of elite professional athletes to represent the United States in outdoor international competition.
"Drake University is proud to be the host of yet another championship track and field event," says Brian Brown, Drake associate athletic director and director of the Drake Relays. "This will be our second time hosting the USATF outdoor championships since 2010, to go along with three NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships since 2008."
"This bid further solidifies Drake and Des Moines as a premier track and field location.
It is both gratifying and rewarding to be recognized as a world-class venue by the USA Track and Field governing body. We look forward to hosting our nation's best as they prepare for the 2013 world championships."
The event's high level of competition was evident in 2010 when the championships were first held at Drake. The five-day event, which featured 1,700 athletes, produced two American records - Chaunte Lowe in the high jump and Kara Patterson in the javelin. Competitors also achieved seven world-leading performances.
Drake's tradition of hosting track and field events has proven that local enthusiasm for the sport is strong. The Drake Relays, which will celebrate its 103rd year next month, traditionally attracts sellout crowds. Drake also recently hosted the NCAA Outdoor Championships in 2008 and 2011 and will host the 2012 event.

Biologic Response Modifiers in Infectious Diseases, an Issue of Infectious Disease Clinics
Biologic response modifiers (BRMs) are substances that stimulate the body's response to infection and disease. The body naturally produces small amounts of these substances. Scientists can produce some of them in the laboratory in large amounts for use in treating infections and other diseases. This issue reviews the use of BRMs to treat infectious diseases as well as the infectious complications of BRMs used to treat non-infectious diseases. Articles on vaccines, antibodies, interferon, and other substances are included.

Various Authors 3:12 p.m., June 24
(Page 2 of 2)
ML: Why do you think this series is a hit?
BG: Because of the books, plain and simple. Suzanne Collins. It's her world, her imagination, her books. The fans love Suzanne Collins. They love her books. They're book readers; they pore over every word. It's amazing how much detail they know about the entire trilogy.
ML: Sometimes when you see these blockbuster films, it's a fine line between the theme serving the spectacle and the spectacle serving the theme. Which way do you think this one goes?
BG: I think it will explain itself once you see it. You'll know exactly what it is.

"I'm gonna get huge!"
Sounds tacky... but with every contraction I was not afraid or tense... I was like, I need to get huge so my baby will come! I think it worked rather well too!
The other thing I did is after every intense contraction, I would say out loud that's one more contraction closer to holding my baby!
I did really well mentally through labor. I was surprised... let's just hope this time is just as zen

I have a 3 page list of birth affirmations. If you want I can post them & you can pick out what you like. Let me know!
Last time I repeated over and over with each contraction: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." And to make it more 'interesting' I tried to see how many different ways I could say it.
Also, I reminded myself of my SIL and all of the countless billions of women who have birthed children naturally before me.
My DH was really amazed at how comatose I was during labor, I really think it helped so I'm going to try to duplicate that again this time.
Happily married to my sweet DH with two precious girls (12/08) and (8/10) and a crazy puppy dog. Expecting blessing #3 around 12/10.
I am a happy, healthy momma
I have a happy, healthy baby
This is a happy, healthy pregnancy
We will have a happy, healthy pregnancy.

My own mantra during my last labour was, "I can do anything for a minute" which isn't poetic, but I believed it, and getting past each minute one at a time was all I was able to focus on. Birth is so in the moment for me.

i surrender my mind to my body, i surrender my body to the process, somehow that word allows me to mentally let go. we'll see how it works in practice.
also: "i'm having a BABY" i imagine i might forget!
And kimkim, I DID forget with DD! It wasn't until quite a ways into labor when my water broke and DH said, "Well, I guess that means for sure we will have our baby tonite." that it dawned on me what I was doing!! The purpose of why got lost in all the concentration and, unfortunately, my fear. I keep reminding DH to remind me during birthing this time of the purpose to all of this so I don't forget again!
My hypnobabies CDs have some great affirmations, but I really love seeing all the beautiful ones here.
Thanks so much.
we had mostly hm births, but even at the hospital friends of mine have used religious Icons or even flowers or photos as focal points of encouragement during labour, also spending a little time alone during labour to reconnect with your own strength has helped me, especially when others strength doesn't seem strong enough to help me through,
I just take a little time away to tell myself that only I can do this, and it almost always works and helps me dilate faster.

I just checked the gauge for the Lochsa, and it magically jumped 0.35', and approximately 250 CFS, at midnight last night. This is about a 50% increase in the apparent flow.
On the other hand, the Selway dropped 20 CFS without changing stage, and the SF Clearwater dropped 40 CFS without changing stage, all at the stroke of midnight. I put in an email to the USGS person listed on the page, and am awaiting an answer.
On another note, I seem to be coming down with some crud, and hope like hell it goes away before I hit the road.

Let's say you're a masochist, looking to maximize your suffering. You could become finance minister of Greece. You could marry Lindsay Lohan. Or you could become a mechanic who specializes in old English cars.
Like my friend Nigel. (This isn't his actual name – we'll get to that in a minute.) But first, a quick overview of his mechanical empire. Nigel works out of a small, overstuffed garage in downtown Toronto. The walls are lined with teetering shelves, well-worn tools and parts for cars that went out of production decades ago. In the corner is a partially assembled 1969 Jaguar XK-E that awaits the next stage of a lengthy restoration.
Nigel's shop is near my house, but its precise location must remain secret, along with his name. (It isn't Nigel, but it should be, given his undying love for the British car.) He doesn't want publicity, because that would bring new customers.
"I've got my hands full," he says. "I can't handle any more."
Each of the cars that Nigel works on is an all-consuming project. He deals with sclerotic Healeys and rusted-out Rolls Royces. He tracks mysterious electrical demons that course through the archaic wiring looms of pre-war Jaguars. The vehicles in his shop are his English Patients. And his ward is full. So he operates below the radar. Nigel doesn't have a cellphone, e-mail or a website. His shop is in a back alley, behind an unmarked door.
Working on old English cars calls for a special kind of mechanic. Nigel may spend months tracking down parts for a car built when Winston Churchill was prime minister. And even if a part is available, there is no guarantee that it will fit, since old English cars were often built with processes little different than those used by blacksmiths who pounded out armour for the Knights of the Round Table.
Bolting a new body panel on to a modern Porsche or Chevrolet can be done in an hour or so. On a 1950s Jaguar or Austin Healey, that same job might take a week.
"You have to reshape every panel," says Nigel. "Everything is done the old way."
Stepping into Nigel's shop transports you back to a time when England ruled the world of automotive design. In the decades following the Second World War, the country was an automotive Silicon Valley. Colin Chapman founded Lotus cars in a stable, and went on to win seven Formula One championships. Jaguar designer Malcolm Sayer penned the stunning XK-E, which was declared "the most beautiful car ever made" by no less than Enzo Ferrari.
By the late 1970s, England's glorious run was coming to an end. Its car industry was crippled by outdated design, ruinous labour relations and substandard manufacturing quality that made its products a standing joke. (Lucas, the British company that supplied electrical components to the country's car manufacturers, was known as "Prince of Darkness.")
But for those who lived through it, the golden age of the English car has an abiding hold. And Nigel is among the faithful. His personal favourite is Jaguar, the brand he fell in love with back in 1955, when he was a 10-year-old boy. "I saw a Jag, and that was it," he says. "It was perfect."
At 19, he bought a used XK-140 and took it to university, where he participated in student protests and worked on social justice causes. At 23, he landed a job as an apprentice mechanic at a Toronto Jaguar dealership and worked his way up. He's 67 now, and he's still working on the cars he fell in love with so long ago.
He's been writing an essay that explains his affection for the brand: "Our Jaguars become a part of who we are and what we do," he wrote. "To admire such beauty and perfection can only come from a belief in the ideal."
A belief in the ideal is often needed when working on old Jaguars. Even the most mundane job can turn into an epic project. Replacing the back brakes on an E-type Jaguar, for example, demands that the entire rear suspension be removed, a job that takes six to seven hours if all goes well (at $94 per hour.)
Unfortunately, things rarely go well when you delve into the rear cavities of an aging Jaguar. The suspension arms may be frozen in place by rust. The hydraulic hoses may be rotted out. Some bygone mechanic may have butchered a component or welded a steel member into place instead of bolting it.
Fixing these problems involves a process not unlike the restoration of a centuries-old British estate or a heart operation on an aging member of the House of Lords. And so it's hardly surprising that a six-hour brake job often degenerates into a week-long odyssey that can run to more than $2,500 (not including parts, taxes and shop supplies).
Nigel's brand of mechanical repair is nothing like the cut-and-dried process that goes on at a modern car dealership.
"Anyone can fix a new car," says Nigel. "You just take one part out and put in another one. This is completely different. There's a lot that you have to know. And you have to be a patient person."
Repairing the cars in Nigel's shop calls for skills that include (but are not limited to) electronics, welding, metal-shaping, upholstery, painting, plating, geometry and physics. (An understanding of psychiatry can come in handy as well.)
Modern cars use digitally controlled fuel and ignition systems that automatically adjust to changing conditions. But old Jaguars are purely analog machines. The ignition spark must be adjusted to arrive at the correct moment. Their banks of carburetors must be tuned and synchronized like the pipes of a cathedral organ. Wire wheel spokes must be tweaked and tensioned like harp strings to keep them running true.
The complications can be infernal. But triumphing over the forces of automotive anarchy is what makes Nigel love working on English cars: "You have to get the car right," he says. "When you do a Jaguar properly, there's real satisfaction. It's art."
Back in the 1970s, I worked as a mechanic myself, specializing in VW and Porsche. I rarely worked on English cars, but when I did, I realized that I was dealing with an entirely different approach to automotive design and manufacture. English cars had a lot of hand craftsmanship in them – workers shaped many of the parts, so that no two were truly identical. I didn't see this as a good thing. (I liked my cars to have parts that fit.)
Digital technology has changed the world of car manufacturing forever. Today, even small-volume manufacturers can produce precise parts, and cars that are symmetrical from left to right. (Don't laugh – in the 1960s, cars were essentially works of sculpture, with dimensions that often varied wildly from side to side, and from one car to the next.)
Modern cars (even English ones) have a consistency and accuracy that the classics could never hope for. Although this is generally desirable, it does entail a certain loss – it's hard to discern a human touch as you study the inner workings of a new Ford Focus or Honda Civic.
And so Nigel works on in his tiny shop, dealing with the frustrations and complexities of the old machines that he has loved for so long. When I visit him, I am always reminded of what I learned about Plato back in university – that physical things are merely representations of universal ideas that we carry with us.
When I saw him last week, Nigel told me how he sees a Jaguar: "A Jaguar's beauty isn't just on the outside," he said. "When you take it apart, the beauty continues. It's expressed in every detail. The engine, the suspension, the brakes – everything. A Jaguar is beautiful in every regard."

Have Toyota Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Hi Philly and welcome to JustAnswer,
The gauge cluster will need to be removed from the dashboard. I have attached a file for the procedure to do so.
Both ends of the speedometer cable is screwed in. I have attached an image of the cable going into the transaxle assembly.
Let me know if you need more help.
It's been awhile since I had to take a gauge cluster out on a Paseo, but I believe you can remove the steering covers on Step 5 and then go to Step 10 to remove the gauge trim panel.
The top cover is removed by pulling up once the 4 screws are removed. No other screws hold that top cover in place.
Well it seems like I have more questions to ask.
Question 1: In the instructions you provided, step 11, "Remove Combination Meter", how do you remove the "Combination Meter", and why does that have to be removed?
Question 2: How do you actually get to the speedometer cable on the back of the dash panel?
Question 3: Do I have to perform all of the steps (21 in all) just to get to the speedomater cable on the backside of the dash panel?
Answer 1: The combination meter is held in by (3) Phillips screws. One on the top and the other 2 at each lower corners. The meter needs to be removed because the other end of the speedometer cable is attached to the backside of it and the other end is attached to the transmission assembly.
Answer 2: You need to remove the combination meter to gain access to the cable.
Answer 3: You do not have to perform all the steps given to you. The procedure to remove the combination meter is not seperate in the repair manuals from Toyota. Remove the steering column covers and the gauge panel and the combo meter should come out once the (3) screws are removed.
Well, your last reply was a big help. I removed the three screws (you mentioned in your last reply) that hold in the "Combination Meter". After I removed those screws I noticed there were two brass screws at the top of the combination meter, one each at the top right & top left corners. I went ahead and removed those two screws, but still cannot remove the combination meter. So, why can I not remove the "Combination Meter"?
Hopefully this will be the last question I have to ask.
In order to remove the whole meter assembly away from the dash, you need to unscrew the speedo cable that's screwed into the transmission assembly.

Three tea towels in mint, unused condition. I call these "new vintage". Each measures 17" x 28" and is covered in berries. One is Strawberries, one is Blueberries and one is Raspberries. They are perfect and never used. Each states Lillian Vernon 1984 on the towels and a signature of the artist is on the right hand bottom corner of each. Perfect for a hostess gift or a wedding gift with a berry bowl.

Sometimes I have to make a custom query to database e.g. if I need to get a list of posts IDs by custom meta and order the results I use this way:
$posts = $wpdb->get_results(" SELECT T1.post_id FROM $wpdb->postmeta T1 JOIN $wpdb->posts T2 ON T1.post_id = T2.ID AND T2.post_type = 'post' AND T2.post_status = 'publish' WHERE T1.meta_key = 'post_views_count' ORDER BY CAST(T1.meta_value AS SIGNED) DESC ");
I'm not MySQL-guru, by the way
Maybe somebody can tell me how to store the results of query by the right way, instead of making a call to database each time.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
1.) Always use $wpdb->prepare on your custom queries, read: http://ottopress.com/2013/better-know-a-vulnerability-sql-injection/
2.) Why not use get_posts() instead of a custom query. You can use 'fields' parameter in arguments array to only load post id's, read: http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Return_Fields_Parameter
3.) Use WordPress transients API: http://codex.wordpress.org/Transients_API to cache your query result. Don't forget to also empty it once new post of that post type is made.
First of all, many thanks for a quick and so complete answer. I really appreciate it!
1) Yes. The
$wpdb->prepare is must have.
2) Originally
get_posts() is much better, however I didn't get a success in this case, so I will try to use this way again.
3) That's exactly what I'm looking for.
Thanks again! Cheers!
No problem.
Based on your SQL above, I believe this should do the same job:
$args = array( 'orderby' => 'meta_value_num', 'meta_key' => 'post_views_count', 'fields' => 'ids', ) $posts_array = get_posts( $args );
Thanks a lot! It works perfect. Here is the result.
$args = array ( 'post_type' => 'post', 'posts_per_page' => '5', 'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1, 'orderby' => 'meta_value_num', 'meta_key' => 'post_views_count', ); $query = get_transient( 'query_name' ); if ( $query == false ) { $query = new WP_Query( $args ); set_transient( 'query_name', $query, 60*60 ); }
Thanks again! Appreciated!
Just a note, instead of using 60*60, you can just use HOUR_IN_SECONDS (it's a constant defined by WP).
It's a lot more readable that way, at least in my opinion.

2005 Porsche Boxster Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 2005 Porsche Boxster based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
21Known Problems
Smoke, oil consumption, and fuel trim issues with various fault codes can be traced to an internal leak at the oil separator.
Windows and interior trim can be prone to squeaks and rattles. Numerous, small adjustments may resolve the issue. Additional creaks have been attributed to front and/or rear window fit as well.
To ensure engine longevity, coolant loss and overheating issues need to be resolved. Coolant loss—sometimes slow and accompanied by white smoke—is often a sign of internal engine problems. The proper coolant fill procedure must be followed.
Over time, the engine carrier or the rubber portion of the front engine mount yoke can fail.
Symptoms such as dragging or a stiff pedal can be caused by accumulated water entering the brake booster. The root cause is a plenum drainage issue. Updated parts are available for early-production vehicles.
Abnormal noises from the intermediate shaft area may be signs of impending engine failure, don't wait to get this issue checked out!

Adam Austin has spoken of his shock after bosses at the Morrisons store in Portsmouth told him he faced disciplinary action when he refused to remove the items.
The 28-year-old has now been suspended until he attends a meeting on Friday.
Mr Austin told the Portsmouth News: "I was disappointed and partly furious.
A Morrisons spokesman explained that staff were generally prohibited from wearing extra items to prevent objects falling into food products
He said: "It's all about food hygiene. The rules are the same in a restaurant kitchen as they are in a supermarket food preparation area.
"We have a dress code and the dress code is primarily around the health and safety of the staff member and the members of the public."

The painting above is by Josh Keyes. Look at it closely and make connections between what you see, how it makes you feel, and what it makes you think about. What message do you think this painting conveys?
Reading a piece of contemporary art is simple and fun, like solving a puzzle. All it takes is a bit of observation, attention to detail, and sensitivity to your own gut feelings and reactions. The best part about art is that it asks questions, but there is never one right answer. Art speaks to us as individuals, and our own personal histories inform our interpretations just as much as the artists' intentions for the work.
When viewing an artwork for the first time, give it some time to sink in. While developing your interpretation, look closely and carefully, recognize your emotional responses, and consider the subject and symbols you see. Is the image timeless, or representative of a specific era? Are the subjects symbolic? Does the image inspire positive or negative feelings, or both? As with any piece of media, art should be analyzed and critiqued to discover its intended audience, meaningfulness, and cultural relevance.

There are reports today that Newcastle are in advanced talks to get Marseilles striker Loic Remy through the door and on Tyneside in early January.
Loic Remy – Newcastle in advanced talks
And it seems that at least one player will go the opposite way so as we had suggested a few days ago it will be a part exchange deal with either Sylvain Marveaux or Gabby Obertan going the other way – and the likelihood is that Newcastle will let Marveaux go as part of the deal.
Newcastle were first linked with the player four years ago when he was still at Lyon, and before he went to Nice for a couple of years before signing for Marseilles in 2010.
We were linked with the player in the summer, but Newcastle didn't bring in any new strikers, even though we were down the three experienced strikers after letting Leon Best and Peter Lovenkrands leave the club – and that's one of the huge mistakes the Newcastle Board made in the summer.
Remy has a good record at Marseilles, having hit 39 goals in 95 appearances for the French club, and he would be a welcome addition to Newcastle's squad.
Remy is a versatile player too as he can play out on the wing, or as a withdrawn striker, and with such an early move for the French international, you have to think that Demba Ba is on his way out of Newcastle.
That's not good news for Newcastle, that one of our very best players will leave the club in mid-season – when we are in such trouble.

Liberty for Life (6 of 15) by Ernest Easley
This content is part of a series.Liberty for Life (6 of 15)
Series: The Lord of Liberty
Ernest L. Easley
Galatians 2:16-21
This morning we are in the New Testament book of Galatians where the Apostle Paul explains some things to us about The Lord of Liberty!!
Whatever has you in bondage today, I want you to know this morning that Jesus Christ can set you free! And it is that freedom, that liberty, that Paul is writing about to the church at Galatia.
Now in case you have been missing our Sunday night study of Galatians, let me tell you what was happening in the church at Galatia. It seems that there were some in the church called ''the Judaizers.'' And these ''Judaizers'' were trying to mix the grace of God and the Law of God when it came to salvation.
In fact, we read in Acts 15.1 what they were saying, ''Unless you are circumcised according to the customs of Moses, you cannot be saved.''
In other words, faith in Jesus Christ was not enough for a person to be saved. They were saying, ''Faith + law = Salvation.'' Friend, it is a dangerous thing to mess around with the gospel! Let me give you the salvation equation: Jesus + Nothing = Salvation.
Now when you come to Galatians 2.11, it seems that ol'e Simon Peter was acting one way around the Jewish believers in the church and another way when he was around the Gentile believers. Before the Jewish believers, his behavior was saying that salvation comes by keeping the Law. And when he was with the Gentile believers, his behavior said that salvation comes by grace!
He reminds me of that man in the Civil War who couldn't decide whose side he was one. So, he wore the pants of a Confederate soldier and the shirt of a Union soldier and when he went to war, both sides shot him!
We read in chapter 2.14, ''But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before them all, 'If you, being a Jew, live in the manner of Gentiles and not as the Jews, why do you compel Gentiles to live as Jew ...

if your like me.. and having WD symptoms, from whatever it might be.. me personally, its currently Methadone that I'm having WD from. I got on it 3 years ago due to a MAJOR addiction to Roxy's and Oxy's. I basically traded one addiction for another.. but the funny thing is, is when I went to register at my local methadone clinic.. my parents went with me and spoke with the doctor with me.. and the doctor never, NOT ONCE ever mentioned the fact that methadone is just addictive as Roxy's or Oxy's. But, it is what it is I guess.
Anyhow.. I've found something that really seems to help take the edge off of the wd symptoms. It's called cannabis. Smoking it really seems to help me with the WD symptoms and even the insomnia to a certain point.
I've found that if I masterbate a few times.. then smoke a bowl or two.. then eat something.. I've found that this really does help. See, the masterbation gets your heart-rate up.. then smoking a bowl helps you relax and it also helps stimulate your appetite.. then once you've munched down on some food.. you get sleepy!!
Really recommend this for everyone!

No algo
Ubicación Cama king size, dos camas individuales recibido reservados. no hay microondas, como anuncian. no muy contentos.
Excelente ubicación, habitaciones limpias y confortables.
La ubicación y el personal Elección pobre de comida en el restaurante del hotel
Close proximity to shopping any location to meet our needs. Plumbing was less than ideal but functional and lighting receptacles not in working order
Full side bed instead of Queen side, no microwave, no fridge inconvenience fir family stay
Very friendly staff, rooms clean and good location. A little loud the weekend I was in
The best bwd away from home I've ever slept in. The room was nicely appointed and clean. The staff was friendly and more thatn accommodating. Food and beverage prices at the in house restaurant were steep for what was offered. We chose to eat put at the many area restaurants for the variety and economy.
The room was great . However we come in late and went to bed and the mattress was terrible. I complained about it but the hotel was full . The manager checked it out and was in agreement and said there would be no charge for the room so please reply and credit card for refund
A nice relaxing stay Bartender was away from the bar more than present. Bar wasn't busy so we couldn't understand why she left guests standing around waiting.
Modernas instalaciones, cerca de restaurantes, buena relación calidad-precio Música en los ascensores, un poco ruidoso, Bar cerrado a las 10 pm... demasiado temprano, debe permanecer abierto hasta la medianoche.
El personal es amable y las habitaciones son siempre tan agradables... No me gusta que haya un perro ladrando en el pasillo
The bed was very good Extremely moldy!!!
The staff was extremely helpful. One member named David was exceptional in politeness & answering questions. The courtesy shuttle was exactly what we needed for our couple's weekend. Temporary inconvenience, I'm sure, but construction in the parking deck made parking tedious.
The location was great for what we needed. The girl at the front desk was great. Great view from the roof. The window ledges were filthy. The windows did not open. There was an air vent out in the hall blowing horrible smelling air right on the room door so we got a face full every time we entered or left the room.
We were so very grateful to the desk clerk who took time to help us was when she was busy. I have never been in a hotel room that had so many electrical outlets for recharging all our devises. In addition to many wall outlets, most of the table lamps were fitted with recharging plugs. The bed was unusually comfortable. I usually regard a hotel's immense pile of decorator pillows as "unsleepable," but these were great.
Historical 1925 luxury hotel with contemporary flair. 2009 upgraded and remodeled. Comfortable in every way. No parking garage or lot available for those who don't use the valet parking. We were able to obtain street parking rather close and it was not a problem for us.
foyer, room ( when we finally got to it), boutique feel :) charming The service was terrible. Upon arriving- the front desk told me they no longer had the king room with pullout couch that i booked available. "They "gave" it to someone else?"- I asked her. She confirmed thsat my prebooked room was not available and She blamed this on "third party" booking issues sometimes. She then offered me a lesser "double beds room" OR going down to a sister hotel- but would not even offer the $40 less rate to me for to rearrange, go get the car and travel down to the sister hotel.?! My elderly mother had to wait for 30 minutes while I discussed how this could have happened with the Front Desk Staff woman. To no avail- she said my choices were-1. you will just have to take the double bed or 2. go to the other hotel. so we chose the double bed room due to it being 38 degrees outside and the hassle for my mom. I told her i was going to put this ridiculous experience on social media. Then when we got to the double bed room ( that I did not book) because we were too tired to go to another hotel, miraculously, the Staff woman called and said- "oh- I have found a King room for you with a pull out". So we gathered our stuff with my elderly mom and moved. All this took an hour of calls and discussion with the front desk who had insisted that they did not have my king room with a pull out couch available any longer in the first place "so sorry maam, but this sometimes happens with third party bookings". It was a mess and we will not recommend this hotel to anyone due to the ridiculous poor service. although it was a delightfully decorated hotel. I was very surprised at giving my booked room to another, then not even offering for a voucher for later and suggesting i take my elderly mom, our luggage and get the car pulled around and travel to another hotel with a lesser rate but not offering to refund me the difference for the lesser rate. Secondly, insisting there was no more King room with pull out available as I had booked, and then once I explained that I was going to share this on trip advisor- miraculously, they found a room available like i had booked in the first place. So, did the Front Desk Staff woman lie to me as well? It sure seems that way. It was cold, I had my elderly mom with me so we could see the Christmas lights in Tulsa and spend time with my college age daughter, and this experience at 9 pm gave both of us a headache.
From the moment my car door was opened there was nothing but friendly informative staff and amazing service. Very unique Art Deco atmosphere with all modern conveniences. Excellent bar and restaurant. Must stay while in Tulsa.
Beds was comfortable. Room was filthy, there was a big sticky spot on the carpet at the foot of the bed that you had to walk through every time you moved in the room. No tv remote.
Everything was great, nice hotel, great value for the price, very helpful, we're allowed to check-in hours early, helped a lot. Pillows are horrible. All feather down and hard. Bring your own, glad I did.
Delicious cookies and nice pool for the kids!
great place, restaurant is good, wonderful sttaff
great location good food, staff, amenities Needs some updating. Hallways a little shabby. Need new paint. Some mold in bathroom. Pool area, sauna, really need to be cleaned
It's a beautiful building with a central location easy to find. Parking was never an issue! Cleaning lady needs to leave soap!
The front desk staff was very nice to work with. She was very happy to have us in the property. Our room was clean. The beds were comfortable. Would definitely stay here again. The location was central to most of Tulsa because it was close to I-44. They gave all of us a warm cookie and a cold bottle of water when we checked in. The in room coffee was even delicious. I didn't count off for this, but I would have liked to have a refrigerator and a microwave in the room.
I went there to get away with my wife and got the honeymoon package, the hotel was amazing and met all the needs that I asked for, even bringing us napkins when we asked.
Ed & I came to Tulsa to celebrate his birthday, the wine was chilling upon our arrival. We ordered room service for dinner, the meal was superb and the silverware and china were beautiful, as were the accommodations. We hope to be back soon.
The Ambassador,a true boutique facility, is the nicest hotel in Tulsa bar none. It's convenient downtown location make it readily accessible to various highways. The desk staff are most helpful and checking in and out were a breeze. For a hotel of his quality, my only criticism would be there is no bellman always in the lobby for bag (but may be requested), which I suppose is more because of the hotel's smaller size than any real service deficiency. When I did request a bellman, he was prompt and very courteous. The rooms are wonderful and well appointed. Mine this trip had a large, flat panel television. Everything is spotlessly clean and very well maintained. The Ambassador's Chalkboard Restaurant is very well known with an excellent reputation and menu. As always, the food was sublime and service impeccable. Truly, I cannot say enough good things about this marvelous and historic hotel! Stay and you won't be disappointed.
After the welcome greeting and the smile, everything else that followed went downhill. There was no disclosure on the amount being held on my debit card and what they comprise. There was an offer to send 4 bottled waters in my room that never happened. The free breakfast was not disclosed. Worse, when I inquired about the free breakfast, I was told there wasn't any and that it would cost me $17. The following day, a member of my team double checked the information and it was found out that we were in fact entitled to free breakfast. Mistakes happen but there was not even an apology provided.
I loved at the pool with on the third floor which is where my room was... It was also open 24 hours to my best friend and I got to go for a swim at 3 a.m. and act silly like we were dolphins and giggle like we were kids! no free breakfast which was a real bummer because I could not afford $16 for breakfast. also no smoking rooms available
Great location In Tulsa and Marriott service was very reliable. Hotel is really starting to show its age. Did not think that the air conditioner is working as well as it should and room felt a little rundown.
I like the amenities the hotel offered and it was quit appealing to the eye as well. I came to relax with my husband after a long work week. We spent all week around a lot of noisy and rambunctious kids, so we were hoping to escape that. This wasn't the case, unfortunately. I was very excited to see that the pool/hot tub were open 24 hours, I arrived at the pool around 12am. I had a lot of problems with my key card and my husband had to run back to the front desk to get it fixed 3 times, leaving me to stand there in the hallway and wait. Once we finally got into the pool area there was a lady there with her very hyper and loud 3 year old who was jumping from the pool to the hot tub. I stood there and waited to get in the hot tub hoping she would get the hint that her child was making it impossible to even get in without being splashed. I decided to just get in anyways and she proceeded to let her child just back and forth and even let her mall my husband and I. Later in our room we found that the food and drink we had put in the fridge hadn't even been kept cold. The refrigerator was totally hot! To top it all off I had jewelry (a white gold bracelet with blue footprint links) stolen wile I was there and the staff was less than eager to help me track it down. I will definitely never stay at this hotel again and I don't suggest it unless your trip is entirely centered around family. This is not a romantic/adult getaway at all, despite the spa and high end appearances and amenities.
Very clean and good breakfast bar......helpful, professional staff......located close to arena.... no
They refused to honor my reservation. Rude people
Clean and quiet. Breakfast was very good None
THE STAFF WAS FRIENDLY, HELPFUL AND VERY INFORMATIVE.THE ROOM WAS VERY CLEAN AND COMFORTABLE!THE BREAKFAST WAS DELICIOUS AND HAD PLENTY TO EAT! No Hotel was perfect!
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
Location, noon checkout Would have been cool if the sofa bed was already made.
in a cool part of town and clean rooms parking a little cumbersome
It was beautiful; convenient, comfortable and the staff was excellent. Very helpful. The breakfast area wasn't laid out to facilitate traffic flow; but I'm not sure this is possible in any situation like this.
location and the loung next door the room set up and no space
Location & parking No
Location Lack of parking. Price
Cattlemen's Restaurant was wonderful. I will make a point to eat there again. The room was not as nice as the surroundings. It looks like all the $$ was spent on the atrium decor & not on the room. Toilet too low to the ground, loose (room 530) I did not like the pool/hot tub. Too noisy, too many children screeming at the same time.
Loved the inviting lobby, staff, and food. Hotel restaurant was outrageous in steak prices, compared to the original Cattleman's in OKC. Couldn't bring ourselves to pay that amount of money for something that may have been mediocre since we had never eaten at this particular one. Instead we went to Longhorn Steakhouse, where we knew the quality of what we were paying for.
It was spacious and comfortable
Staff was friendly, bed was comfortable. The pet fee was high, the nightly rate was high comparatively to other hotels in the area of the same caliber.
Friendliness of staff, accomodations, atrium. The breakfast buffet was fantastic. Rooms were comfortable and clean. A little noisy on Saturday night.
I found the facilities to be very clean and welcoming. The entrance to the building gave you a feeling of stepping back in time, and the door greeters were quick to give you a grand entrance. Honestly, for the price for my room, I found the room to be of higher stature than many I've had in previous travels. The bed was comfortable, not a rock; the lighting was bright or dark by choice, the climate control worked the way it was supposed to work, and there was ample room for me and my other. I would recommend this location to anyone looking for quick access to downtown Tulsa and a quiet place to relax in between outings. The only thing I didn't like wasn't even necessarily a dislike, but rather a potential downside - parking. The hotel has valet parking, but not a lot of open parking. It's not a huge shock as the building is located in downtown Tulsa. If you opt for this location, I would suggest arriving early enough to catch a parking spot on the street (on the weekend) for free parking. Otherwise plan on paying for the valet service or have a bit of a walk to get back to the hotel.
My stay, generally, was fantastic. The staff really was the highlight of the stay (keep up the great work!) The air conditioning in my room was a little difficult to figure out. I thought I had it set, but it got warm in my room at night.
Mostly everything was great. If a worker sees you they greet you. The bed was very comfortable and the room was great. The location is right by the mall so it's an awesome location. It is also a very quiet location. Everywhere we looked online said there was continental breakfast however, there was not. Even when we checked in they said there was continental breakfast so we were very upset when we found out that wasn't true the next morning. The pool was small so not many people were able to get in it. There was a place where they could have a fire which would have been a great view. I get that it was hot outside but having the firepit lit outside would have looked nice.
The pool, the lounge, the back patio area, and the staff. The sofa-bed (it made my back hurt for several days) and the hot tub (out of order).
The website said there was a continental breakfast and that was a lie. The restaurant/bar was never open. Having a small child that made it difficult when she was hungry we had to always go out to eat and she just wanted to stay in.
This hotel was very clean. My wife and I booked our hotel through Kayak for our anniversary. It was a disaster trying to check in upon arrival. It took us nearly an hour to help the desk clerk understand that we didn't need to pay for our room twice because it was already paid for through Kayak. I showed the desk clerk my receipt and confirmation a dozen time, yet he insisted on swiping my card over and over. Due to this lengthy check in we were late to dinner and missed our reservation. We are extremely dissapointed.
The decorating & cleanliness....only saw the lobby. I didn't get a chance to stay, so not sure.
Extremely friendly staff and just an overall feeling of comfort and calm. The room was very charming and the bed was one of the most comfortable I've slept in on the road. Lots of great little touches. Will definitely stay again.
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
Did it expect breakfast to be included no
It was a beautiful and unique hotel. Our first visit to Tulsa and it is a really cool little town. Was nice we got a full breakfast coupon for the hotel for the next morning as well. Enjoyed the stay - very nice and very clean. Nice shower. The bathroom sink did not drain very well other than that nothing.
The inside of the hotel was just gorgeous!!!! Absolutely fell in love with the room! The outside appearance honestly makes you want to drive right on by! We first saw it and was very skeptical until we drove around back and then went in!
It was a wonderful find. The rooms were unique and beautifully furnished. The staff was great as was the location. I loved the history surrounding the hotel. The Maxwell restaurant served an excellent breakfast with great service.
This hotel is close to downtown Tulsa without feeling like it. Parking is free. Rooms are tastefully decorated. The staff was very helpful.
Nice parking area. Good restoration. Rooms are very small and you are not really close to anything.
Very nice, well maintained property. Good restaurant. Good staff. Enjoyed the stay.
The staff was very polite and helpful. The hotel was quite and the perfect size. Only things I didn't like was stepping up into the bathroom and no light in the closet.
Staff were pleasant, attentive, and helpful. Full service bar is a nice amenity in this category. The room was dark with old fluorescent light bulbs- made the room look like a 1980s high school gym. The bed was comfortable but had HAIR all in the sheets and the ice bucket was full of old moldy water. Worst of all, there was feces on the toilet seat and hair all over the bathroom. For that one reason alone, I would NEVER stay here again.
Free suite upgrade. Very nice hotel. Was above all expectations.
Soft bed, good location Sheets seemed clean but were stained with blood--including a pillowcase. Headboard was splattered with God-knows-what. Carpet in front of cooling unit was soaked. Pool was murky. Hot tub was yellow. Really should've just left when saw the state of things but was tired from the journey.
When I check in that clerk was amazing she printed us maps and visited with us and greeted us every time she saw us she said something to us . None of the cleks did or other staff did. My AC did NOT work in my room and the AC unit itself was filthy. So I had to stay all weekend with no AC in Oklahoma. It was SO HOT. They saw us bringing fans up and just looked at us and never said a word. We asked for extra towels twice never got them. They came to get our dirty towels and said they would wash them and bring them back. Ummm weird why not just give me some clean ones. Breakfast cost $10 and was not worth $10, I travel ALOT and stay in a lot of hotels. An I was really disappointed in this one. My friend left an item in the room and they contacted house keeping they said they didn't see it we knew exactly where it was just shows they DONT CLEAN! It was exactly where we said it was and the desk clerk found it thank goodness. Don't think I will stay here again
Day time construction.
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
We arrived to the hotel at 3:00am after driving 800 miles to be received by the BEST Service in a long time. Hotel employee was ABSOLUTELY awesome. Her service was extremely accommodating. Kudos to the management for having such an attentive Hos
Hotel employee working the front desk was very nice. Apparently they were remodeling the the third floor hallway so when you stepped off the elevator the paint fumes overwhelmed you. Fortunately the smell didn't seep into the rooms.
The room was clean The only smoke detector in the room was covered up with a Walmart sac...and also pool area could've been stocked with towels.
Close to airport Location
Bed was soft, room was quiet and clean, we got a good night's sleep, breakfast was good (waffles, eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits and gravy, cereal, etc), and the staff was friendly. And the price was right. A minor thing, I wish the front desk guy had let us to use the hot tub even though it was after hours, many hotels (including La Quinta) will let you use their hot tub after hours so long as you are quiet. Otherwise all was good and I would return here.
The lounge is very nice and nice decor The person that checked us in looked like she didnt want to be there and wasnt very friendly
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
This La Quinta Inn is clean and very comfortable. Location near the airport and freeway access is great. I was able to check into my room a little early, and was gracefully cared for by the staff. Breakfast area is comfortable. Nice Fridge & microwave. I would have loved having 2 chairs that could pull up to the table / desk.
Liked the close proximity to the fair grounds, and how pet friendly it is. The neighborhood was a little shady at nighthe, and the eggs/sausage for breakfast weren't the best.
No complaints. We were stuck because of delayed flight...a good choice. Nice breakfast, clean, all good.
