Self-declared as "relentlessly local coverage of Southern Chandler and our neighboring communities", the news features cover community theater, upcoming festivals, local impacts of impending legislation, puff pieces on local businesses, and school sports. With free publications such as these, I often get more out of the ads and hunt down restaurant coupons as an excuse to try new dining establishments (spoken like a true Yelper, ahem, gourmand). This newszine does not disappoint. I found plenty of buy-one-get-one-free offers and other enticing coupons for local eateries and food shops. They also have a respectable restaurant guide derived from the on-line resource www.chandlerlocalbites.com. Now that I'm better informed, I won't have to trek through Hell and Creation to find my nearest dining adventure. But I'm still gonna stick to my budget and save me some money on the meal. All the more reason to go a little nuts and splurge on drinks and dessert! (Yes... there is a method to my madness.)

Snooty magazine day! Snooty magazine day!…read more I guess one of the perks of living in Scottsdale is that I get this magazine for free and really, who would pay $4.95 for it?! Self described as "Arizona's luxury magazine for affluent desert living" it features everything you need to make it in Scottsdale. Honestly though, snootiness and kidding aside, it is pretty useful. They always have features on new restaurants and shops in the area, a fashion and style section, and information on events and day trips. The plastic surgery and cosmetic dentistry ads are hilarious and the ads for million dollar homes make me drool.

I grabbed East Valley Woman to flip through while waiting for my bagel and coffee. That was the…read morelast positive impression I had. I have never been so motivated to write an unpleasant review. There are some great free and low cost pro-business woman magazines. Some of them are actually quite good. So I'll admit I was expecting it to be something the level I'd seen before. Heck no. This magazine is the equivalent of watching an hour long infomercial. Sure, there might be some funny parts or things that make you go Hmmm, but you can't go more than a minute without that reminder that they are trying to sell you something. I think there might be 2 whole "articles" there that are not sharing ad space on the same or facing page for whatever business or service is being discussed in the article. (Example, 1st faux-article "My New Year's Resolution: Become a better networker" filled with how important networking is for your business and an ad at the bottom for the author's company, with her email and phone number for a seminar for "International Networking Week.) And if the ad isn't right there, flip a few pages - because they're all here. And of course, there are no "Advertisement" notes at the top of these things because they might as well just put it on the front cover. It's a giant ad! Anyhow, I'm guessing their ad space is cheap because all the articles are in big font and double spaced and the ads are huge. This 28 page magazine is New Times sized when it should have been Old TV Guide sized. Their tag line? "Empowering Valley Women" Really? Really? I know it may be asking too much, but how about a little more honesty in advertising? If you see this laying there next time you're out, I suggest just letting it lay there. Unless you really love infomercials.

They're nice, talented people for the most part, especially Robert, but holy hell I don't understand how they stay in business. We used them despite them. In the most recent situation that draws my ever-loving ire, they sent us a half order and accused us of losing the other half. Then, we tried to switch over to Impact, who on two occasions ignored my requests for a quote. That was awesome. So I begin to scour the Interwebs, high and lo, begging, praying, beseeching the Gods above for a printing company to just be effing awesome. Lo and behold, such a company exists. The Heavens parted, angels sang to Odysseus' Sirens, and I found O'neil. O'neil is the real deal and if you don't get your stuff printed here you're evil. It doesn't matter if you've never heard of them. Even if you don't need stuff printed, you should make something up and send it here. They're hyper local and by that I mean they're not only local but locally EMPLOYEE owned. Yeah boooooiiiii! They've been in business for about 103 years or some crazy number to which I can hardly count. If you want to know the truth, I think in the future, I used a time machine to go back to the past to influence my future by founding this company that year just so that 100 years later I could look like a genius for finding such a great company to print our shite. In case you need to visually verify the veracity of my claims, pull a Cosmo Kramer like I did and just bust down their front door. It's probably not locked though they claimed upon my departure there'd be a "Dallas G" policy. I'm so happy. Even if they send me a box of flaming dog excrement they'll have done it with way more class, style, and responsiveness than the others in town. O'Neil for President!

Dear New Times, I…read moredon't quite understand why the reviewers here are so down on you but can only conjecture how most aren't strip club aficionados, in need of a good car stereo at low, low, prices, or, have little interest in attending concert events featuring eighties bands who've been relegated to 'Behind the Music-where are they now'. But that's precisely why I love you. Without you, how would I have ever known Chesty Morgan was performing a one-night only gig at Bourbon Street? I've never seen 96FFFF tits prior to or since that day, so kudos for that one. The image of her hot air balloon tits will be forever seared into my spank bank. A triumphant five stars. As for the car stereo places featuring the 'One dollar install', what a load of shit those places are. They may only charge a buck to install, but you can get the same piece of equipment on Crutchfield Online for half the money, and, get a high school dropout to install it for a couple of blunts. So no stars for those thieving fucks. And your classifieds? I love them-particularly the variety. Men seeking women. Women seeking men. Bi-men seeking racially bigoted trans-gendered she-male dominatrix. Women seeking goats. Is there no end to your ever-growing list of deviant captions? Five more stars, but mainly for your consideration of the deviant-sex aficionado whose only outlet prior to your varietal classifieds was either NAMBLA or a henhouse. Another section of your paper I love is the call girl ads. Yet five more stars and big fat mega props to your devoting page after page to these industrious eager beavers. I can't begin to tell you how consoling it is to know that when it's my turn to host poker night, I can choose from any number of 'college coeds' to make certain my soiree is the hit of the season. Although, I can't give you a bunch of stars on this one. Not only did one of my buddies lose a stack that night at poker, he also lost his longtime girlfriend, and, with no medical insurance, his low-rent romance cost him a couple of trips to the clinic. You may want to look into this. Maybe put one of your reporters on the case, since it tends to irretrievably fuck-up people's lives when some so-called college co-ed shows up to the party with STD's powerful enough to take down a village in the Sudan. Major party foul. Anyway, overall, I have to give you high marks. Between Chesty's uber titties, 'mostly' disease-free call girls, and, seeing at least two of the original Eagles perform at some Indian Casino way the hell out in BFE, my life has only been greatly enhanced by what most here caption as an uninformative rag. I find you anything but. PS One of the call girls in your classifieds conveniently forgot to mention how she was in possession of one very large dick. This was a nice surprise. Again, perhaps fodder for one of your investigate journalists.

He charged for a core feature on our website that him and his team developed. It didn't work for over a year. He then tried to bill us to fix it. The website had 404 errors way before he changed servers and then sent a bill to fix it, but he blamed it on the new server. He also illegally got into our customer database, on the server, and retrieved one of our admin log in credentials and then used those log in credentials to make himself another admin account after we terminated his services. To this day he refuses to give us our backups of the website or ftp log in credentials so we can migrate the site to another host after we spent upwards of 150k with him. I would steer clear of this company because they charge to fix issues that should have worked from the get go and break in to the backside of your website after their services were terminated.

In a city that's filled with magazines that seem to only care about covering where the coolest…read moreclubs are, where the richest people shop and eat, or how to be a hip college student this magazine is clearly unique. Cheeky, irreverent, subversive and deceitfully honest, this magazine covers (or rather uncovers) aspects of Phoenix that are much less obvious than than the chic trendiness of other magazines and is so much more interesting because of this. Issues can be hard to come by since they only come out with new issues every 3 months but their site claims you can reserve issues and have them sent to you for a nominal fee. I should say that I wrote an article for hoozdo for their first issue. All writing and photography for this magazine is contributed by volunteers for the love of the game and for the love of Phoenix. Bottom line -- great read with a true subversive, big-city edge.
