Poll: What do you think of Hamilton's new parking meters?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

A new parking meter system is supposed to “offer greater convenience” in central Hamilton, but CBD barber Gini Berggren says it has the potential to trim her customers.

Forty per cent of Berggren’s customers are elderly, and she’s frustrated to watch them walk the distance from her premises at Barber on Barton up the street to sort out their parking.

S Steel Stovetop Cleaning

Marylou from Melville

I am desperate to find someone who is experienced in cleaning a stainless steel stove top.The worst one was when I was making soup(about one and a half hours) and I was using a simmer mat. I have found that if I am using the burner for even an hour I get this pale brown "bloom" which is almost impossible to remove. The pics show that I have got some off but that is using steelo and I can't get around the burner. Please, only give me something that does work, so I don't wreck the thing totally. I can't take my pans off half way through cooking and wipe around, it would be too hot. I'm desperate.
