Threading wins over clients at downtown Tempe salon
It may not be the only salon in downtown Tempe that relieves women of stray brows and smoothes upper lips, but the technique used at Jada Beauty distinguishes them from the crowd. Threading, an ancient method of hair removal that uses the precise twisting of a cotton thread to remove hair, is the process used at Jada, which opened last month at 350 S. Mill Ave., B201, at Hayden Square. Casa Grande native Alexis Smith owns the salon with her fiance Alex Nguyen and Nguyen's mother Oanh Phan, who founded the business and has practiced the Eastern technique for more than 20 years. .
Alternative Candy Bars Fight For Taste Buds
The peanut butter flavor is not well-defined, the crunch is muted and the chocolate is indifferent at best in flavor and very waxy. Grade: C. Hershey's Take 5: 210 calories, 11 grams fat, 0 mg cholesterol, 180 mg sodium, 25 grams carbs
Most candy fans will tell you that the salty-sweet contrast is one of their favorite tastes. At first, the Take 5 bar looks like a kitchen chemistry project some of those candy eaters might undertake while on a chocolate-covered pretzel jag. There's a lot going on here: peanut butter, pretzels, caramel and toasted peanuts, all wrapped in chocolate. And it works. All the flavors play well together, but they all manage to retain their identities nicely. This is a really great candy fix, and surprisingly innovative coming from one of the big names in the business.
How money and policing are rebuilding East Hills
Not every resident is pleased with this zero-tolerance approach. Sharon Fields, who attended the recent agency-head meeting, complains that security is heavy-handed. But she herself was arrested in October by Pittsburgh police. According to an incident report, officers had approached a young man in a hoodie on a warm night because they thought he was suspicious. Ms. Fields started swearing at them about harassing the man, police said, and ended up spending 12 hours in jail on a disorderly conduct charge. Some residents also complain about "shoddy" construction of the units and chafe at the regulations imposed by management. But Ms. Baylock, of CT Management, says the complaints are the result of a lack of enforcement in years past.
