The PIA Buy Button is the ability for agents to bind a policy in a once-and-done fashion, in real time in their agency systems, from among their appointed carriers regardless of the point of engagement or policy sale. The technology exists to do this, but has yet to be used in this manner. Currently, agents must leave their systems, or bridge to the carrier system, to bind a policy. The buy button will empower agents to bind coverage in real time for prospects or clients who call on the phone, walk into the agency, meet, or visit online.
"The mission of the AIMS Society is to provide sales training, networking and marketing innovation to property and casualty insurance professionals," said AIMS Society President Craig Most. "It is a natural fit for us to support the Buy Button as a way for independent agents to capitalize on marketing efforts by being able to close the deal at the point of sale—no matter what the point of sale is."
In January 2016, PIA National initiated an industry-wide dialogue on the concept of independent agents offering real time binding of insurance policies, which could include a level of purchasing capability on their websites. PIA convened a meeting among all stakeholders—carriers, agents and technology vendors—held at the headquarters of ACORD, the Association for Cooperative Operations Research and Development, in Pearl River, New York, to discuss the topic.
In April 2016, PIA adopted a position in support of the buy button concept. That position was then endorsed by NetVU, the Network of Vertafore Users.
"Thanks to technology, independent insurance agents have the ability to take back the real time binding process and use it to increase sales," said PIA National President Robert W. Hansen, Jr. "This will benefit our agencies as well as our carrier partners with increased profitability."
"This is all about empowering agents, carriers and consumers," said PIA National Executive Vice President & CEO Mike Becker. "The buy button will create new opportunities to reach markets that currently go untapped for most agents, expand choices for consumers and build business for our carriers. PIA thanks our colleagues at the AIMS Society for their support of the initiative."
Founded in 1968 as The Firemark Society (FMS), the American Insurance Marketing and Sales (AIMS) Society provides training, information and networking services designed to increase the personal and agency sales production of property and casualty insurance agents. AIMS was the first organization to honor property and casualty agents for sales excellence and to establish the industry's only sales-based insurance designation – Certified Professional Insurance Agent (CPIA). For more information about the CPIA professional development program or membership in the AIMS Society visit www.aimssociety.org.
Founded in 1931, PIA is a national trade association that represents member insurance agents and their employees who sell and service all kinds of insurance, but specialize in coverage of automobiles, homes and businesses. PIA members are Local Agents Serving Main Street America SM. PIA's web address is www.pianet.com.]]>
"The DOL fiduciary rules may make professional advice too expensive for millions of households and small businesses," said PIA National Vice President of Government Relations Jon Gentile, in comments to Best's News Service. "In addition, the increased liability exposure for advisers would also increase the cost of services, causing some advisers to exit the market entirely or discontinue services for smaller accounts."]]>
Interested parties, including Lauren Pachman from PIA, were given the opportunity to comment. They echoed comments made at other industry meetings at which the NAIC model has been discussed, and generally suggested NCOIL refrain from drafting its own model until the next NAIC draft was available. Several interested parties also expressed concern about the possibility of the NAIC cybersecurity model law becoming an accreditation standard.
During the NCOIL-NAIC Dialogue, State Sen. Steve Riggs (Kentucky) asked Director Farmer for more information about what prompted the NAIC to develop the cybersecurity model, given the extent to which this issue is addressed already in state law. Farmer explained that the NAIC model was intended to contain all the provisions NAIC regulators wanted to see in every state law and noted that, across existing state laws, there are numerous variations. Some state laws, he noted, are insufficiently robust. The NAIC model is designed to remedy that by strengthening state laws and encouraging uniformity.
During NCOIL's Property & Casualty General Session, a representative from KPMG encouraged the development of uniform rules governing insurance of autonomous vehicles, so that vehicles that travel across state lines aren't subject to multiple states' liability laws and regulations. Eventually, the KPMG representative opined, policies will be written to insure the autonomous-driving software instead of the vehicle's driver, so that liability for losses will fall on products rather than drivers.]]>
"In our analysis of the MGA and program market we found continued strong growth in excess of the overall property-casualty market, along with the natural ebb and flow of relationships and players in this dynamic market," said Matt Sternat, Vice President, Insurance Research at Conning. "The MGA market is becoming more material to the overall market as well, representing 14% of all commercial lines business. However, with year after year of high growth rates relative to the rest of the industry, a cautionary note should be sounded about the underwriting profitability associated with growth in this market. The MGA market has experienced difficulties in the past, and certainly could again in the future."
The Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.) announced Sean Kevelighan was named President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), effective August 8. Kevelighan has over 18 years of public affairs, communications and media relations experience, including leadership roles in the global property/casualty (P/C) insurance industry. Kevelighan, 43, was Global Head of Public Affairs for Zurich Insurance Group. Previous positions include Group Head of Global Consumer Banking Public Affairs for Citigroup and posts in President George W. Bush's administration.
Kevelighan's predecessor, I.I.I. President Dr. Robert Hartwig, had announced he would be stepping down from his role in August to become a faculty member in the University of South Carolina's Darla Moore School of Business and co-director of the Moore School's Risk and Uncertainty Management Center.
PIA intends to remain extremely involved in the regulatory process on this important issue.
Have you ever thought of an insurance adjuster as a superhero?
Chances are you haven't, unless you're an insurance adjuster. But soon, a new television series, Powerless, will debut on NBC. It follows the story of claims adjuster Emily Locke (Vanessa Hudgens) as she helps those whose lives and properties were ruined by fantastic and destructive battles between superheroes and villains.
NBC's new series, the first comedy series set in the universe of DC Comics, shifts the focus away from superheroism to the ordinary people whose lives have to adjust to account for the occasional supervillain-induced disaster. In the pilot episode, Emily works for the Retcon Insurance Company, an insurer that often deals with claims related to superheroes and villains. Her new superior, Del Heller (Alan Tudyk), demands that the company increase its claim denials rate by 25%—a move that does not sit well with Emily and her genuine desire to help her clients.
Powerless is currently in production; a debut date has not yet been announced. The last time a series featured an insurance investigator as the lead character was on the radio program Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar, which aired on CBS from 1949-1962.]]>
In this opinion article, former Wall Street Journal technology reporter Lee Gomes argues that Joshua Brown, the Tesla owner killed in the self-driving car industry's first known fatal accident, may be the first casualty of the widespread and potentially dangerous belief that autonomous cars are much closer to being road-ready than they actually are.
A common narrative out of Silicon Valley about driverless cars, he says, has been that the major engineering problems have essentially been solved, and widespread adoption of driverless technology is inevitable. However, many self-driving cars still struggle with simple potholes.
"No model car comes close to the driving ability of a Manhattan taxi driver on a rainy day," Gomes says. Many companies, the author notes, are planning cars that in an emergency hand back control to the human driver. The potentially fatal weakness of this strategy is that it assumes "drivers" will be paying attention at the split second they are most needed. Developers of Google's autonomous vehicle now say it might not be available for 30 years, and the author notes that in technology, "in 30 years" often means "never." Read the full column here.

Oh, Lowell… (Or, why I'm afraid we're not ready to have nice things…)
Our (obviously very classy) local paper, The Lowell Sun, stole a (pretty crappy, taken with my mobile phone) picture from this post praising our bike lanes to illustrate an article condemning said lanes. No, the irony is not lost on me. Stay classy, Sun.
Post edited to add that the picture was also used in the print edition. Hey, it got me to buy a paper, right
Getting out of ruts (culinary and otherwise…)
I have been in a couple of ruts lately. I haven't been posting here as much as I would like, and we have been eating a lot of the same things for dinner. To kill a couple of proverbial birds*, I decided to spend some time looking through my cookbooks to find something interesting and post about one of my meals. Yay for setting and meeting goals, because I have three new recipes in the dinner rotation for this week and I am going to write about one of them right now.
Risotto with Roasted Butternut Squash and Kale
2013 in Review
Oh my. 2013 certainly was a long year. As I was looking at pictures from the beginning of the year I couldn't believe that they were taken less than a year ago. This was taken on January 1st 2013, and so many things – the place we live, the tree, the furniture – are different now.
This was a year of big changes both for me and for people close to me. A lot of really wonderful and fun things happened this year but, for whatever reason, this year seemed like a bit of a slog. I don't know why it is (ummmmm, probably all of the changes,) I have just felt more overwhelmed that was probably necessary.
January started off with some cold bike commutes…
Day 7
It's Sunday and all I have on the agenda for the rest of the day is 1. seeing The Host and 2. picking up K at South Station so, yeah, I am rockin' the crocs and sweatpants.
In other news… Simon, Rudy, and I went to Deer Jump Reservation in Andover this morning for our walk. While we were there we saw a fox…
And this neat tree…
The fox picture is blurry because he was pretty far away from us (and I snapped the shot with my phone) but he stayed staring at us for quite awhile and then ran around the field. He looked quite a bit like Simon and Rudy. They, of course, didn't even notice the fox because they were too busy sniffing the stone wall near the field.
Happy Easter!
Happy Easter to those who celebrate it! Happy Spring to everyone! I am certainly ready for some more light, warmer weather, cheery blooms, and the new beginnings this season brings!
PS Tomorrow 30 Days of Biking begins! Ariel, Henrietta and I are looking forward to being a part of the community of joyful cyclists!

FUUUUUUUUUUU U MADAGASCAR!!!!!! gg tho
An instant classic.
TBH, after looking at all the comments and the hate on Madagascar of how hard it is. I will rather prefer to play Plague.Inc instead. Plague.inc was so easy that I had successfully killed everybody in within playing for a 15 minutes. I seriously prefer Plague.Inc no matter what. I could only rate a 4 for now. I can't change this review, but I will give it a go.
Madagascar never became infected no matter what i tried -.-

Cross-over games selected
Relevant offers
A mathematician, a web-conference and a clutch of chief executives on a phone hook-up were the ingredients contributed to Canterbury choosing Otago as their "cross-over" (premiership v championship) home game.
This was the scene when the New Zealand Rugby Union invited media to observe representatives from the country's top 14 provinces select "cross-over" matches for next season's NPC.
Although the draw has not yet been finalised - and it will not be released until after the NZRU meets on December 13 - the premiership and championship provinces yesterday determined who they will play in their "cross-over" matches. There were four of these fixtures and the first lot had already been pre-determined with defending champions Canterbury playing bottom-seed North Harbour.
It was confirmed a mathematician from Victoria University had been asked to run the numbers to ensure there could be no complications.
And then it began. There was little risk of Canterbury Rugby Football Union chief executive Hamish Riach blowing-out his throat during the brief meeting. When asked who Canterbury would select in the second round of picks, he boldly declared: "Otago".
And his work was done.
In the opening round Tasman chief executive Andrew Flexman selected Canterbury as his province's home game and in the third and final round of picks, Manawatu's John Knowles selected Canterbury as his side's home game.
Just what shape the NPC format will take next season is yet to be confirmed.

Product Description
Amazon Review
Lee Child has steadily accrued one of the keenest groups of admirers for any contemporary thriller writer – and the reason is easy to discern. In such gritty and authoritative novels as Tripwire, Killing Floor and Die Trying, Child established his tough itinerant protagonist Jack Reacher as a key modern hero, with a taciturn, hard-boiled appeal that has not palled over many books (though some have queried Jack's transformation from a man who triumphed -- with difficulty – over insuperable odds – into a nigh-invulnerable super-hero). But the narrative grasp of the author remains absolutely iron-clad, and there are the stunningly drawn American locales that are so notably impressive from an English author.
In the latest outing for Jack Reacher, Gone Tomorrow, Child's resourceful hero is travelling in New York City, observing his fellow passengers on the subway. He's aware that suicide bombers are easy to spot – they're usually nervous, and (as he wryly notes) by definition they're first-timers. As an ex-law enforcer, Jack notices that of his five fellow travellers, one is distinctly giving out the signals that spell danger. Grand Central Station is approaching – will Jack act and save lives – including his own? But… what if he's wrong?
This high voltage situation is the arresting curtain opener here, and the tension is screwed tighter, as Jack Reacher is pitched against the one of the most challenging threats he has come up against. Gone Tomorrow has all the dynamism of Child's earlier work; spruced-up, super-charged and showing no sign of age. --Barry Forshaw
Among the most popular crime novels right now - they're good fun and super-tense...One of his best. -- Heat
Has the switchback plotting and frictionless prose that are Child's trademarks...always a pleasure. -- Guardian
Read this before you read any other new thriller...the master of suspense and action is back on scorching form.
-- Shortlist magazine
You'll be left with a thumping heart and a racing pulse but, be warned, Chapter 63 will give you nightmares. -- Evening Standard

It starts with Reacher on a New York subway in the small hours of the morning. He spots a woman, Susan Marks, whose behaviour meets every criteria for a suicide bomber. She's not. But she is a woman in trouble. Reacher can't help Susan, but he can't let the matter rest until he finds out what was behind her state of mind and finds the people who drove her to that point. Although at various times he recruits her brother and a friendly police officer as allies, essentially this is Reacher taking on the bad guys on his own.
The first half of the book is all set up and it's quite gradual. Reacher is a little slow off the mark: there are a couple of revelations that seemed pretty obvious to me, but which take some time to emerge. On the other hand, I wasn't sure for quite some time who the villains would turn out to be, which I enjoyed. In the second half, Reacher goes after the villains: this half is dead exciting and includes some of the most graphic descriptions of violence that I remember Lee Child writing.
There is one central implausibility: Reacher is told repeatedly that he'll be in deep trouble if he finds out a particular secret.Read more ›
A welcome return to form with a tight and well structured storyline not Jack's best adventure but still a great read and miles better than most other contemporary thrillers
Get it read !!
Certainly not Killing Floor or Persuader form. This is similar to the far superior The Visitor in that it's more mystery, less action. I'm fine with that. What I'm not fine with however are the outrageous liberties Lee Child is taking with Reachers pragmatic abilities.
We know Reacher is gifted but Child has been taking the rip for a while. (Remember how he located his old partner in a diner in Vegas?!) This intrinsic radar ability is prevalent more than ever here. How Reacher continually manages to track his quarry through NEW YORK totally drains any credibilty from the book. We're not talking a rural town here. Reacher knows what street, what hotel, what house and it's just ridiculous. I'm all for artistic license but Child has gone too far. How Reacher works out where the USB stick is tipped me over the edge. It was a deux ex machina and almost ruined the book.
It's not all doom and gloom however. The narrative is interesting enough and it kept me reading but Reacher is becoming almost a parody of himself. The mystery was good but with a more realistic, visceral approach it could have been excellent. The liberties in credibility however have dragged it firmly into the land of fantasy. Not where I want Reacher to be at all. Not to this extent anyway. Let's make the next one even a little plausible. Please? Thanks.
Having been a Jack Reacher fan for a decade, I've been prepared to accept a lot of poetic licence by Lee Child. I know that it's not supposed to be a factual account of a real life person and I'm more than happy for an author to bend reality to suit their books. However, in the case of Jack Reacher it's starting to feel a bit too much.
We all know and love Reacher as an honourable rogue, who's prepared to stand up against the big guys and fight for the little guy, but his personality is turning into an oxymoron. Where Lee Child is going wrong is letting a character who is both intelligent and street smart be so incredibly stupid at times. I know it's been needed to move the story in the direction Child wanted it to go, but I don't think I'm the only one it grates on and it takes away from the enjoyment of the book.
I hate to say it, but I'm starting to think that it's time to retire Reacher now. I've absolutely loved so many of the previous books, but in the last couple of years they've started lacking something. Maybe Lee Child has just done everything he can with this character and is starting to repeat himself? I like his style of writing and would really like to see what he can do with a different character.
All that said, this is NOT the book to introduce yourself to Jack Reacher. Go and look at the back catalogue (but not Nothing To Lose) and there are plenty of books that are fantastic page turners. If you already know and love him, you'll accept the shortcomings.
Please Lee Child, do something to win us jaded Jack Reacher fans back for your next book!

Dub Club - Bubble Dub
- May 28, 2013
In the store | Dub Club - Bubble Dub (Foundation Dubs Vol. 2)
Volume 2 of Dub Club's Foundation Come Again dub records - 10 tracks "mixed in a dubwise fashion", pressed on single vinyl at Capsule Labs here in Los Angeles, covered in one-of-a-kind, hand-printed sleeve.
Bubble Dub:
Bubble Dub was mixed live to tape in one take by Chasteen. The dubs were made the classic way, improvising in the moment, twisting knobs, pushing faders, reshaping a song with echo, reverb, space and time. Chasteen says, "Dub is not just a contest to create the heaviest ever bassline, but a subtle carving away at a piece of music. The dubs on this record also keep one foot in the dancehall, where dub where was born and raised."
The disc features artwork by Gustavo Eandi, with art direction by Jeff Jank. Each sleeve was hand-printed by Hit+Run in East L.A., using a set of different screens and ink, resulting in one-of-a-kind sleeves.

Foundation Come Again:
Stones Throw and Dub Club have teamed up to release a collection of new recordings by Jamaican sound system legends. The album Dub Club: Foundation Come Again was recorded in Jamaica and Los Angeles by Jamaican artist Tippa Lee and Dub Club's Tom Chasteen. Release date: July 16, 2013.

How to locate a good designer for branding and website?

Re: How to locate a good designer for branding and website?
In reply to JoannaR • Nov 13, 2012
As far as a logo/brand, find a designer/graphic artist....or design it yourself. If youre looking to "brand" you must have ideas, a market, a niche, etc. As for site builders, find sites you like and find out who did them. Personally, I find it MUCH easier, gratifying and CHEAPER to do my own sites. When you "lease" your domain name you do so for a particular length of time, like 1 year for $9, 3 years for $24, etc. I buy mine for 5 years at a time and it costs something like $29 bucks. THEN you buy hosting, which varies depending on the size of your site. You can get hosting for little to nothing. A "standard" photography site shouldnt cost you more than $20ish a year. So figure $30 a year on the high end for your domain name and hosting.

Oh, Hey—Look Who's Responsible For Gwynnie's Red-Carpet Success
It hasn't gone unnoticed that Gwyneth Paltrow has been looking rather — how should we put it? — fly recently. We don't need to remind you about that Antonio Berardi dress, do we?
Well, as it turns out, we Brits have something to do with it. Sorta. In her most recent post for Goop, the actress highlights all of the fantastic brands from Blighty she wore on the red carpet for the Iron Man 3 campaign. With the help of her stylist Elizabeth Saltzman, she picks the pieces and doles out the advice about how to wear Brit from head to toe. It's not as hard as you think, particularly when all of the items are available at Matches Fashion. Handy that. (Goop)

tags: GOP, William Howard Taft, Chris Christie, United States President
Despite some tensions with his fellow Republicans, Chris Christie is well-positioned to become the front-runner for the GOP presidential nomination in 2016. He's poised to easily win another term as governor; he polls strongly against Hillary Clinton; and he's successfully tapped into voter discontent about the partisanship, political posturing, and general bullshittery that plagues Washington. There's just one problem: Christie is very overweight — so much so that one esteemed former White House physician (a Republican, in fact) is worried he could die in office....

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A trio of Utah Valley University players scored 18 points to lead the Wolverines (8-10) to a 78-66 road win at UMKC on Wednesday.
Ben Aird, Alfonzo Hubbard and Nick Thompson all finished with 18 points with Holton Hunsaker scoring 11 and Jason Johnson 10 as five UVU players finished in double figures.
Thompson also had nine rebounds and six assists while hitting 8-of-9 from the floor. Utah Valley shot 60.8 percent for the game including 17-for-22 (77.3 percent) in the second half.
"This was a very nice team win tonight," coach Dick Hunsaker said. "We played smart and intelligent, had good ball movement and made good decisions. Our overall effort and spirit was very good."
Up nine with just over six minutes left, Hubbard led the Wolverines on a 9-0 run pushed the lead to 18, 72-54. Hubbard scored seven during the spurt and also converted on a steal and an assist to Ben Aird before capping the run with two free throws.
UMKC (4-13) — from the Summit League — got no closer than 15 until a 3-pointer in the final minute cut the lead to its final margin.
The first half went back-and-forth with eight ties and four lead-changes and neither team leading by more than four. Thompson, who hit all four of his field goal attempts in the first half, had 10 while Hunsaker added nine points and had three steals by the break.
Johnson scored a bucket late in the half to break a 27-27 tie and, following one of Hunsaker's steals, Thompson put back a miss to give Utah Valley a 31-27 lead at the half.
The Wolverines increased the lead to eight just out of the locker room on a pair of free throws and a layup from Aird. It was trimmed back to five before Keawe Enos drilled a three from the corner and Thompson found Aird for two to give Utah Valley a 47-37 lead with just over 13 minutes remaining.
The lead was seven when Thompson stole a pass and took it to the other end for two. On the next possession, Jason Johnson found Aird for two down low, giving UVU its biggest lead to that point, 63-52, with seven minutes left.
The 'Roos were led by 15 points from John Burke and 10 each from Nelson Kirksey and Thomas Staton.
The Wolverines return home to Great West Conference action Saturday against Houston Baptist at 7:05 p.m. MT in the UCCU Center.

The economic recovery is stalled. For the fourth month in a row, the University of Oregon Economic Index has declined. Economist Tim Duy says without government intervention; it's going to be a slow, painful recovery. The high unemployment rate combined with a lack of consumer confidence is keeping spending down. When consumers start to spend, then businesses will start to hire and the economic recovery will resume.

Simplify Media discontinues iPhone apps
Simplify Media, developer of the Simplify Music and Simplify Photo iPhone applications announced Friday that it will no longer be offering its current software to new users and that it has removed the Simplify iPhone apps from the App Store. Simplify Media was best known for its applications that allowed iPhone and iPod touch users to stream music and view photos from their computer over a Wi-Fi or 3G connection, even while away from home. In a post in its blog, the company indicates that it is heading in a "new direction" and has taken these steps to focus on that transition. The post goes on to state that Simply Media will continue operating and supporting the service for at least the next 3 months for existing users, and that the company hopes by that time to be able to announce more information on "future incarnations" of the service. [via TUAW]

Time to demand a refund for my software.
Posted by RO in Toronto on March 15, 2010 at 12:00 PM (CDT)
Just when I thought I'd gotten the best streaming audio app for the iPhone, they pull this? JS put it well: this will certainly impact any future purchases I may (or may not) make from SimplifyMedia.
Posted by Dave in Toronto on March 15, 2010 at 1:32 PM (CDT)
I will miss simplify. It was buggy at times but was always quickly fixed. Let me re-iterate, I will REALLY miss Simplify! Since having my iphone and simplify, i havent been forced to delete and update my 160gb classic as much. I AM REALLY GOING TO MISS SIMPLIFY!! It was a life saver with an over 300gb library. I have Jukefly, which is reliable but NOT NEARLY as pretty or functional as simplify. Simplify Media R.I.P.
Posted by Dwell in Toronto on March 15, 2010 at 2:05 PM (CDT)
Sounds to me like they were sold, perhaps to Apple or Microsoft.
Posted by Chris in Toronto on March 16, 2010 at 1:37 PM (CDT)
Good luck getting a refund. There is no contact info at the simplify site. I have contacted Apple a couple times to request a refund. No responses.
I have a hunch that Apple bought them and will integrate the service into their home sharing concept somehow. Wishful thinking perhaps. If this is not the case, I sure want my $7.99 back!
Posted by Helmut in Toronto on March 30, 2010 at 3:23 PM (CDT)
When something to good to be true comes along it is also true that it will be taken away. I was willing to pay to use Simplify Media. Now that I paid the piper the piper is taking the money and running. Sounds just like the same people leading our nation, "stick it to your supporters."
Posted by Whitakers2 in Toronto on April 4, 2010 at 4:50 PM (CDT)
I just bought this app in March and up until I saw this LOVED it. Way to screw the people that actually support the software… from now on I'll just pirate whatever else you put out.
I really liked being able to resume large mp3's (radio shows)... Guess I need to find something else. Any recommendations? I'll actually buy something if the software will work for more than four months.
Posted by MaynardK in Toronto on April 26, 2010 at 8:12 PM (CDT)
Well… here it is over 3 months later and still nothing. I guess the folk at Simplify Media are still sunning themselves on a tropical beach somewhere warm with all of our money… us the people who PAID for the app they decided to then PULL from our devices. Thanks guys. You're six kinds of AWESOME !!!
Posted by Tim in Toronto on May 26, 2010 at 5:23 AM (CDT)
What do you mean by pulled?
I have always been, and am still using my Simplify Media music app.. No jailbreak.
It isn't updated anymore, but hey, it works like a charm. Why fix something that isn't broken?
I'll bet it's going to work at least until Apple launches it's own streaming service.
Posted by Liptor in Toronto on June 4, 2010 at 8:38 PM (CDT)
no, they are shutting down their servers at the end of the month. Simplify is NOT decentralized, you can only connect to your PC through their servers. once they shut them down (and they will), the app will no longer work.
I wish the Air Video guys would make an audio streaming app, Air Video works like a charm, and you only connect to their server to generate a key, which you don't even need to do. If Air Video ever shuts down, your app will still work as it currently does. Simplify lost a loyal customer, I will never support anything they do, ever again.
Posted by guyinabearsuit in Toronto on June 16, 2010 at 1:41 PM (CDT)
I'm frustrated. As a paying customer, I feel left high and dry today as the service has stopped working.
I'm disappointed and frustrated, and whatever 'new direction' this company takes, they will not see my money at their destination. I will not purchase another product from them after being ripped off like this in this fashion.
For shame!
Posted by Ben H. in Toronto on June 30, 2010 at 1:04 AM (CDT)
Not only do the makers not refund the money, but the site claimed that the app will still work for existing users for some time. Not true. I sent them seven emails, all of which went unresponded. Bunch of snakes.

"Dandelion head"— love it! Only as an adult did I realize the "cool" kids at school did the same thing to me.
shannon is asserting control over her act! When everyone works it out, she'll feel success— and to heck with her dad!
I sure hope they continue with the Follies next week and don't change the arc— even to Puddles!
For his sake, I hope Rosalyn is teaching piano. For her sake, I hope not.
"Why can't she just do it solo? I don't get it."
Nicole – I think she really wanted to do it with her daddy. Finally, they are a duo. He and she are a team.
Second, even when she first practiced her act, Luann was singing as her musical accompaniest.
There is NO reason someone can't follow AB's suggestion the other day and say, "Your dad couldn't make it, but here's a guitarist who can't go on without a dancer— can you help?"
Yeah, Shannon's heart is broke right now. This has been a HUGE event to look forward to.
"Gunther the Great"! In the old day, his self-esteem was so bad he would have called himself "Gunther the Good Enough". So either his self esteem has improved, or Tiff has insisted on an upgrade.
BTW, who was the saint who shot the video?
"'m trying to remember if anyone ever died in the history of the strip,"
Not this strip, but in Funky Winkerbean and FWOFS.
"Remember that a whole lot of right-wingers are ardent Christians, "
RR – I'm a Christian too. And these shootings violate our faith. Even if the motorists and pedestrians had committed heinous crimes, Christianity requires we show mercy. But the fact is, they were innocent. INNOCENT of probably any crime!
Thank God, literally, for videotapes and camera phones.

Pop icon Madonna will receive the Top Touring Artist honors when the 2013 Billboard Music Awards unfolds on May 19 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The 54-year-old entertainer will be honored for her top-grossing 2012 MDNA world tour which ended up as the tenth highest-earning tour of all time.
Her 88-date long international tour grossed a whopping $305 million, giving the Material Girl her latest career achievement already filled with numerous chart-toppers and millions in sales. Her "MDNA" album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 359,000 copies sold and went on to produce three Billboard Hot 100 chart-busting singles, "Give Me All Your Luvin' ", "Girl Gone Wild" and "Turn Up the Radio".
According to Billboard, "A cultural icon, Madonna is one of the most successful and influential entertainers of all time and was recently named Billboard's Top Money Maker of 2012."
