HSBC suspends foreclosuresby Kim Miller
HSBC, the "world's local bank," said in its 2010 financial report released last night that it has suspended foreclosures indefinitely because of problems with how the cases are processed, prepared and filed.
The report to investors says the bank is responding to federal inquiries about its foreclosures and "certain deficiencies in our processing, preparation and signing of affidavits and other documents supporting foreclosures."
(Here's the full story in today's Post)
Also listed as a concern is the evaluation and monitoring of the law firms handling HSBC's cases.
"Management is reviewing foreclosures where judgment has not yet been entered and will correct deficient documentation and re-file affidavits where necessary," the report says. "We have suspended foreclosures until such time as we have substantially addressed noted deficiencies in our processes."
It was not immediately known how many cases HSBC has in Palm Beach County.

What is the best language to develop computer games in, and why?
What is the best language to develop computer games in, and why?
As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion. If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
There is no single answer to this.
If you have a multi-hundred-person studio, trying to make games with a nine-digit budget, you'll be using C++. It has the most power and can produce the best-performing games, although it's a bit of a pain to achieve that power.
If you want to make Facebook games, you'll be using Actionscript, and maybe Javascript if that's supported now. (I have no idea if it is.)
iPhone games? You'll need to learn at least some Objective-C. Android games? Gotta dabble in Java. In both cases you'll probably want to include C as well, since it'll let you port back and forth far more easily, but it's certainly not necessary.
Are you an indie game developer, planning to target Windows and maybe the XBox? C# is a good choice - I've heard good things about the XNA. You can also use C# for Unity, which is nicely crossplatform and performs very well as long as you're doing something Unity is good at.
Those are all the common languages . . .
. . . but "best"?
Best is in the eye of the beholder. Tell us what you want out of a language, maybe we can describe the best language, maybe we can't.
Personally, I use Lua, overlaid on top of C++.
There is not best language to develop games. It depends for which platform (mobile/console/desktop...) you want to develop and also what kind of game you plan to develop. Often the framework/platform dictates the language, anyway - some engines/platforms (eg. Unity) offer you different languages to choose from.
Have a look at this question

Hope the Iggles don't get a good HC....
Hope the Iggles don't get a good HC....
I'm ALL IN are you?
"Once a Giant, ALWAYS, a Giant."
I hope Andy Reid gets the best season of his coaching career in 2013 while philly goes 4-12... the tears of unfathomable sadness would be so yummy and sweet.
Also, wouldn't it be hilarious if Kevin Kolb was named Arizona's starter?
I could see Kevin Kolb become the QB that Cardinal fans hoped he would turn into. Andy Reid had Kolb playing well in Philly.
What if Ken Wisenhunt or Lovie Smith went to Philly though? Yikes!
I think Wisenhunt goes to Buffalo. Just a hunch I have.
If you dig up the dirt in Oakland, you will find Giant bones
3/18/14 Draft:
1-Aaron Donald DT Pitt
2-Kareem Martin DE UNC
3-Stanley Jean-Baptiste CB Neb
4-C.J. Fiedorowicz TE Iowa
5-Bryan Stork C FSU
5-Chris Watt G ND
6-Jeff Janis WR SV
Great scenario for Kolb. Reid is a QB guru, and has worked with Kolb.
I'm not saying Kolb was a world-beater for Philly, but he was adequate under Andy's tutelage. They need to patch up that OL a bit, though.
I expect to see Andy back on top in 2-3 years.........We can scratch the Eagles off our problem list.
It's just us and the Shanahan's now

Friedrich Named ITA All-American
SKILLMAN, NJ – The University of North Georgia's Felipe Friedrich has been named to the 2013 Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Division II All-American Team as a singles player as announced by the ITA on Friday afternoon.
Friedrich was one of 10 Peach Belt Conference players to make the team. Armstrong Atlantic led all schools with five players making the team.
Friedrich, a 5-8 senior from Santa Maria, Brazil, led the Saints this season at No. 1 singles, posting a 15-3 record overall, including a perfect 8-0 mark in non-conference action. In Peach Belt matches, he went 7-3 with four of his wins coming over ranked opponents including a three-set victory over then 10th-ranked Alex Caspari of then No. 20 Francis Marion University on February 16. He defeated his opponents in straight sets 10 times while ascending to his current national ranking of 31st in singles action. He finished at No. 17 nationally in the final ITA rankings.
In doubles, Friedrich and his partner Matheus Guida boasted a 13-5 record at No. 1 doubles for North Georgia, including a 7-1 record over non-conference opponents. The 21st-ranked doubles tandem in the nation and ranked sixth in the Southeast Region, Friedrich and Guida went 6-4 in the league and defeated three ranked tandems including then No. 10 Gordan Divljak and Quentin Rayniere from Columbus State on February 20. The doubles tandem finished at No. 11 nationally.
To make the ITA All-American team, a player must have met any of the criteria necessary to earn the honors. Singles players had to have finished in the top 20 of the final ITA College Tennis Rankings, while doubles tandems must have finished in the top 10 of the final rankings.

I have friends that are doing commercial and residential remodeling.
They are new owners of a fairly large Nursery in this small rustic community. (plants-cactus).
Like myself they subscribe to the green/sustainable theory etc.
And no doubt they will seriously consider Aquia's for their residence which is fine.
I have some serious reservations about recommending an Aquia for this nursery based on my limited experience with the toilet. I'd like to get some opinions from anyone with experience or information regarding this.
A few thoughts:
1.No doubt TOTO was successful with Aquia's in Thailand for 6 years and likely many commercial applications as well presumably in Bangkok.
The fact is that most Thai men weigh 50-100 lbs less than many American men.
2. Who/How/Where does the education about "Dual flush" happen?
It seems to me this could be a potential nightmare with some varying factors.
There is no doubt in my mind that the whole dual flush concept will
be embedded in our psyche in the coming years. BUT we aren't there yet.
note: The Aquia Button is clearly labeled with a removable sticky label .9 and 1.6 flush.
Actually I'm anticipating about 15 responses of: "Have you lost your freakin' mind..?"
And Somehow I don't think that big burly catus delivery guys are concerned or impressed with the soft close seat either.
I already know the answer to this-but I haven't seen it discussed yet...
What is the best-state of the art commercial toilet available for light and medium seasonal traffic. Drake??
Is it available with Sanigloss?
I know nothing about commercial plumbing ratings.

UPDATED: Game One of the World Series was lopsided, but it still produced big ratings for Fox.
The game averaged 14.7 million viewers and put Fox on top Wednesday night in total viewers and the 18-to-49 age group. The Boston Red Sox beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-1.
In Orlando, however, "Survivor" was the most-watched show, placing ahead of the World Series.
The national prime-time averages for the other broadcast networks: CBS with 10.5 million viewers, ABC with 7 million, NBC with 4.8 million and The CW with 2.4 million.
"Criminal Minds" was CBS' top performer with 11.6 million viewers. The 300th episode of "CSI" pulled in 10.5 million. "Survivor" was the destination for 9.5 million.
"Modern Family" was ABC's best with 10.3 million viewers, followed by "The Middle," which marked its 100th episode with 8.3 million. ABC also aired "Back in the Game" (6.3 million), "Super Fun Night" (5.8 million) and "Nashville" (5.5 million).
NBC's best was "Law & Order: SVU" with 5.5 million. Once-hot "Revolution" had 5 million fans.
The CW got a strong performance from "Arrow" with 2.9 million. The new "Tomorrow People" had 1.9 million followers.
In Orlando, "Survivor" drew 172,400 viewers. The World Series averaged 156,800 viewers. Rounding out the top five were "CSI" with 151,900 viewers, "Criminal Minds" with 137,600 and "Modern Family" with 132,500. One other program topped 100,000: A&E's "Duck Dynasty" with 104,800.
But the World Series was the No. 1 program with the 18-to-49 age group. Other favorites in that demographic were "Survivor," "Modern Family," "Revolution" and "Duck Dynasty."

Afghan crash saddens workers at Willow Run Airport, where cargo company was once based
As investigators seek to determine what caused the crash of a U.S.-run civilian cargo plane in Afghanistan, an official at Willow Run Airport Tuesday said the crash had saddened workers at the facility, where the plane's operator was formerly based.
Seven people, five from Michigan, were killed when the plane crashed Monday shortly after takeoff at an airfield in Afghanistan. Officials have said the National Transportation Safety Board will assist in an investigation to determine the cause.
Daniel Brenner | AnnArbor.com
The Florida-based cargo company, National Airlines, said its Boeing 747-400 plane crashed at about 7 a.m. EST at the Bagram Air Field, just north of the Afghan capital.
National was based at the Willow Run Airport, located in Ypsilanti Township and Wayne County's Van Buren Township, until January of this year. The company relocated to Orlando, Fla.
Scott Wintner, spokesperson for the Willow Run Airport and public affairs manager at the Wayne County Airport Authority, said people at the airport was shocked and saddened to hear of the accident.
"Everyone here is saddened to hear the news, particularly with a Michigan connection, but any time there's a loss of life within the aviation community, it mourns," Wintner said. "Our hearts and minds are with the families and those affected by the crash."
The international cargo flight was destined for Dubai World Central — Al Maktoum International Airport, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, according to the NTSB.
Wintner said Willow Run has several other cargo aircraft companies based out of the airport, including Kalitta Air and Kalitta Charters, as well as Active Aero. He said he couldn't confirm whether those airlines deliver cargo to areas within the Middle East as well.
Ypsilanti Township Supervisor Brenda Stumbo said her thoughts and prayers are with the families, friends and co-workers of those who died in the tragic airplane crash.
"The pain of losing loved ones will be felt by many in our community, state and country but most of all by their families," Stumbo said. "We are truly sorry for their loss."
The NTSB announced early Tuesday afternoon that Senior Air Safety Investigator Tim LeBaron will be the U.S. accredited representative to work alongside the Afghanistan Ministry of Transportation and Commercial Aviation. LeBaron will lead a team of three additional investigators from the NTSB as well as representatives from the Federal Aviation Administration and The Boeing Company, the NTSB said in a statement.
"Safety is always our top priority at National Airlines," said National Airlines President Glen Joerger in a statement. "This is a devastating loss for our family and we'll work diligently with authorities to find the cause. Most importantly, our thoughts and prayers are with our crewmembers and their families."
Names and hometowns of the victims are not being released yet, but National said in a statement it will release additional information as it becomes available, "in cooperation with government authorities."
All seven crewmembers onboard were killed and the airplane destroyed. The seven crew members were all American citizens. They included four pilots, two mechanics and a load master.
The Detroit News reported that one of the pilots was Brad Hasler, 34, who got married April 14 at a Detroit restaurant in a small family ceremony. Hasler and his wife, Robin, are the parents of a 1-year-old daughter, Sloane.
"This was a purely cargo flight and no passengers were aboard," the company said in a statement. "Cargo consisted of vehicles and routine general cargo."
The company said at this point, it is focused on assisting the NTSB and the Afghanistan Civl Aviation Authority in their investigations. The cause of the accident is unknown at this point, the company said.
National Airlines is a subsidiary of National Air Cargo and carries cargo both commercially and for the military and employs about 225 people.
The National Airlines Family Information Call Center has been activated to support any family members requiring information.The National Airlines Family Information Call Center number is 888-705-7560.

As sad as this crash is, especially when it touches us in Michigan, I hope we can all agree that there is no need or purpose to expand Willow Run east -west runway to allow fully loaded 747 freighters operations out of Ypsi. Lets keep them flying in -out of larger airports with existing longer runways. NOT right over Depot town and Ann Arbor.

Woman charged in Peters 911 hoax
A Canonsburg woman was arraigned at midnight Wednesday on charges of disorderly conduct and false reports for an incident Wednesday afternoon that resulted in police from several departments surrounding a Peters Township home.
Tara Howard, 36, was arraigned before District Judge Jay Weller and placed in Washington County Jail on $5,000 bond.
Police from several departments surrounded a house in the 400 block of Justabout Road in Peters Township at about 2 p.m. after Washington County 911 received a call that someone was shot and bleeding inside. Washington County emergency 911 center then received a second call that the woman who made the call was in Washington.
As police had the home surrounded, the homeowner arrived and told officers that he had received a message on his cellphone from a relative who said she was going to make such a call as a hoax in order to cause the family inconvenience
Howard was placed in Washington County Jail on $5,000 bond.

You perfected messy side buns, around-the-head braids, and sleek chignons. Then you got a haircut and could barely muster a ponytail.
Don't fret. In today's video, hair genius Adrienne Saczko of The Drawing Room New York demos a beautiful, easy updo for chin-to-shoulder-length locks. All you need is a curling iron (or hot rollers, if that's easier), hairspray, bobby pins, and your own two hands.
Once you get the style down, feel free to tighten with more pins (or loosen with fewer) and adorn it with your own accessories.
Preferably not mistletoe.

Jean Baardsen
Morehead City, NC USA
Width: 9" Length: 12"
Materials/Techniques: Repurposed fabric, thread, thread painting.
Artist Statement: In 2003, I made a large abstract art quilt (49" x 27") that I named Potpourri. I was never happy with the composition of the quilt. Potpourri lived with one of my nephews for several years, but it has recently made its way back to my house. Rather than just put it away in a closet, I decided to cut it into pieces and use some of them for AAQI art quilts. I made Potpourri 1, 2 and 3. The floral fabric in the quilt came from the skirt of a formal dress. The one thing I did really like about the original quilt was the extensive machine quilting. Flowers, leaves, and other designs show especially well on the back of the quilt.
Jean Baardsen
Dedication: Dedicated to William.
This quilt has Fast Finish Triangles.

Maureen and Mike Mansfield Library Digital Collections
September 1~, 1968 CONGRESSIONAL JtECORD- SENATE
Mr. MANSFIELD. Mr. President, I am
delighted to bring to the attention of the
Senate a statement I have just received
from the Bureau of Land Management
stating that the Secretary of the Interior,
Sewart L. Udall, has set aside a 31,000-
acre wild horse and wildlife range in the
Pryor Mountains along the MontanaWyoming
border. I am sure the distinguished
Presiding Officer (Mr. HANSEN
in the chair) has received a similar
communication, because he is also interested
in the wild horse and wildlife
Mr. President, this is good news, because
it will mean more feed and
sustenance for the horses and other
wildlife as we~
I am happy that Secretary Udall has
brought about the range enlargement
and I ask unanimous consent to have
printed in the RECORD the letter I have
received from the Department of the Interior
and the release from the Bureau
of Land Management.
There being no objection, the material
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows :
washington, D.C., September 11 , 1968.
Han. MIKE MANSFIELD,
U.S. Senate, Waslttngton, D.C.
DEAR SENATOR MANSFIELD: PubliC concern
for the protection and management of t:1e
wild horses In the Pryor Mountains area of
Montana and Wyoming has been a matter
of major significance.
Since you and your constituents have expressed
an Interest In this problem, we are
enclosing a copy of the latest news release
explaining the Bureau of Land Management's
poeltlon ln this matter.
Sincerely yours,
JOHN 0 . CllOW,
Acting Director.
{A news release from the Department of the
Interior, Bureau of Land Management,
Sept. 12, 1968]
BUREAU OP l...UI'O MANAGEMENT ESTABLISHES
Secretary of the Interior Stewart L. Udall
has set aside a 31,000-acre wild horae and
wildlife range ln the Pryor Mountains along
Lh<· Mon~ana-Wyomlng border, Bure"u of
Land Ma!l.l\gcment Director Boyd L. Rasmussen
announced. The move Is being made w
give Federal protection to a herd of wlld
horses whose future has aroused nationwide
attention !or several months.
Rasmussen, who visited the rugged mountain
area recently, said: "It Is essential
that we move ahead Immediately to designate
these lands to provide Federal protection
for this national heritage, and as quickly
as possible to establish long-term management
for both horses and wlldllfe, Including
a mule deer herd. After signing this designation,
Secretary Udall has authorized me to
appoint a special advisory committee to help
us study humane and practical means to
operate this range, and to advise use of a
suitable method to arrive at a balance between
the horses and deer and the food
avallable for them."
BLM plans no action to trap or round up
horses from the range at t his time, Rasmussen
said, and future decisions wlll be based
upon consideration of committee recommendations.
The committee wlll Include representatives
of wlld horse organizations, humane
societies, wlldll!e specialists and other
broad Interests. The committee may consult
specialists In other fields related to horses
!or technical advice where needed.
Since a eerles of public meetings last
spring to discuss preliminary alternatives
for management of the Pryor Mountain area,
the range available for use by the horses
has been Increased by the addition of lands
within the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation
Rasmussen said, "After visiting this area.
I am concerned that the total numbers of
animals-horses and big game-may not be
In balance with food avallable for them . I
agree with Montana State Director Harold
Tysk of BLM and his competent staff that
something must be done to halt continued
soli and watershed problems which ha"e
been brought about by Intensified competition
between horses and wlldllfe for food.
"At the 8ame time, we all recognize that
these horses are a national asset, and the
l'ryor Mountain herd Is suitable for management
of the wlld horse so Important In
Western history," Rasmussen continued.
"Another factor Is that forage on 8 ,000
acres In this area was I den tlfied years ago as
Important for mule deer. Thus I want the
be~t advice possible from a wide range ot

The internet is now widely used, which means that web hosting services have become absolutely essential. The internet is needed by people to access information. All the information found online appears on web pages, and the pages wouldn't even exist if web hosting was not available.
Web hosting is simply a service that allows web pages to be visible over the internet. Web hosting use servers to make this possible.
The servers is where the information is stored. You can see the information whenever open a web page. The server has to do the work, because the web pages are not written in a human language like English. Instead, scripting code is used for the pages. A server can change the code and translate pages so that individuals can understand and use them. That is how web pages can be understood by both human beings and computers.
Hiring a search engine optimization company to work on your website to get it ranked higher in the search engines is also very important. Just be sure to choose wisely when hiring an SEO service.
There are several different kinds of web hosting that are available, including both paid and free hosting. Largo SEO at largoseo.com is a much easier process when you hire a reliable and experienced Largo SEO firm to get your website ranked.
However, there are other kinds of hosting that most people don't know about. They are very important types of hosting, so they definitely shouldn't be overlooked when it comes time to acquire hosting for your website. Virtual dedicated server is one type to consider. This is a type of hosting that runs off a virtual server. In this case the server runs on a virtual machine. This is basically a form of simulation. A program is simulated from a machine that runs a different program.
There are a couple of features that virtual server hosting is synonymous with that might not be found with any other kind of hosting. The first feature is that the customer is responsible for caring for the server themselves. It is up to them to do the servicing. This can result in lower costs for some providers. However, for the consumer it is obviously more work. Another feature that comes with this type of hosting is that the fixed bandwidth of the customer's is not measured.
It really isn't unlimited, so we will refer to it as unmetered. This means that although there is fixed bandwidth, there is greater use. For many consumers this can be an important advantage because most people searching for hosting services are looking for large bandwidth for the long term.
However, this is theoretical. The use depends on the what the needs of the individual are that has hosting on the virtual server. A majority of individuals searching for web hosting services aren't aware of virtual serving hosting. Many haven't even heard of it before. Well, now they know.
Now we will review another kind of hosting called dedicated hosting. With this from of hosting the user controls their own server. These users do not technically own the server. Instead they are renting it. However, they are responsible for everything. When we say everything we are referring to maintenance, security and the other tasks that need to be done to manage the server.
This kind of hosting is completely opposite to another kind of hosting called shared hosting. With dedicated hosting the client controls the whole server when they rent it. Other company's websites are not hosted on the server. It is like renting a house. It is up to the client to manage the server once they've rented it.
Large organizations prefer this kind of hosting because they can control the many factors that affect the web server. Software and hardware for running the server are the two major important factors.
With other kinds of hosting, it is rare for you to even know about the two factors. You just get bandwidth and disk space. When you have dedicated hosting, it is much more complex. The two factors are important and should be taken seriously. When you are in control of these two factors, you are beyond the position of simply just hosting your site on a web server.
You control a lot more aspects now. In terms of the operating system, you now have several different options. You need to make a well calculated decision when it comes to choosing your operating system among the different choices that are available to you.
In terms of dedicated servers, a key point is management. You need to ensure that you properly manage the server. If you don't, you can only blame yourself if something goes wrong. There are many different aspects that go into managing a service. All of them help to facilitate the server running smooth, which is what you need for your website.

Take Five With Jerry Senfluk
Born in Prague, Czechoslovakia (NOT the Czech Republic), on St. Patrick's Day, 1946. As the younger son of a pianist mother and a cellist father. he enjoyed thorough musical education from his distinguished parents in playing the piano, intonation and musical theory. He received private tuition from the Principal Clarinetist of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra and, in 1967, graduated from the Conservatoire of Prague. With a father who frequently toured the world and brought home many a record, he was influenced by Louis Armstrong, Benny Goodman, Fletcher Henderson, Sidney Bechet, Omer Simeon, Duke Ellington, Jack Teagarden, Coleman Hawkins, and many others.
An initial live jazz influence was clarinetist Edmond Hall who toured Czechoslovakia in 1958.
Professional Experience 1962: First public appearance on clarinet at a jam session during the International Jazz Festival in Prague, playing alongside Acker Bilk and his Paramount Jazz Band.
1963-1968: Performed with the Cats Jazz Band and with the Jazz Fiddlers. After graduation from the Conservatoire, worked for the Czechoslovakian Radio on a series of jazz programs and became Assistant Editor of Melodie, Prague's jazz and popular music monthly magazine.
1969: Joined the orchestra of the State Theatre in Aussig (Northern Bohemia) in March and appeared at the International Jazz Festival in San Sebastian in July. Moved to (then) West Berlin and toured Germany with a band supporting Albert Nicholas.
1970-1973: Continued to work in Germany until late 1971 and, due to a complicated ankle fracture, rested during much of 1972. Became clarinet teacher in November 1972 at the Steglitz School of Music in Berlin. Married Georgina, a ballet dancer and pedagogue, in June 1973.
1974: Tour of West Germany and Switzerland with a Zurich-based Dixieland band.

Established the Coppelia Ballet School in Berlin, running the business side whilst Georgina provided the tuition.
1975-1977: Frequent bookings in West Germany. Worked with a band accompanying Freddie Kohlman, and with the Savoy Gang, a swing quartet.
1978: In demand on the London Jazz scene, playing with many U.K. names and resident at Soho's Zanzibar Club with Satn Greig and Johnny Parker. Later worked with the Haens'che Weiss Quintet, a Berlin-based manouche formation mixing Django Reinhardt's tradition with influences from eastern European Gypsy folklore and Brazilian music.
1979-1984: Founded the Hallmark Swingtet in Berlin. Promotional and corporate performances for a wide range of companies, institutes and municipal bodies. Work in radio and television. Played with the Berlin All Stars.
1985-1990: Back in London, playing West End and South Bank venues and composing.

2003-2008: After yet another relocation, this time to the picturesque rural settings of Upper Franconia (northern Bavaria), touring Austria, Bohemia, Denmark, France, Germany, Mauretania, Senegal, Slovakia, Switzerland and the United Kingdom with various ensembles of Alexander Katz, Andy Lawrence, George Pokydor, Herbert Christ, Keith Smith, Max Collie andabove allVano Bamberger. Also branching out to classical music and into Russian salon music of the 19th century with pianist Alla Schatz and baritone vocalist Oleg Dynov.
2009-2010: Despite the commitment to Vano Bamberger's manouche ensemble, intensified efforts to bring the Capital Swing back onto the map, resulting in festival appearances in Andalucia and Denmark.
Teachers and/or influences? Karel Dlouha (then the Clarinet Concert Master of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra). Influences too numerous to list all: from Edmund Hall to Benny Goodman to Coleman Hawkins to Earl Hines, Sidney Bechet to Django Reinhardt, as well as countless sources from various folklores of the West European Mediterranean, Alpine, Latin American, Caribbean, Pacific and West African regions. And above all, of course, Louis Armstrong, W. A. Mozart, Giuseppe Verdi, J. S. Bach and others.
I knew I wanted to be a musician when... When I was very young and stupid and realized that I couldn't do anything else.
Your sound and approach to music: To judge my sound is down to others. My approach is to make it as beautiful and near to perfection as possible, and avoid superfluousness, knowing at the same time that if I had 400 years, I still could not reach my own goals and ideals.
Your teaching approach: Apart from teaching the rudimentary technicalities like how to hold and operate the instrument, how to breathe and which mistakes to avoid, I never did any teaching. The students have to teach themselves. I only show them how to do this.
Your dream band:
I've already reached that, with my own quintet. It's the best thing which ever happened to me, in both musical and human terms.
Favorite venue:
a) Harbour Yard, Chelsea Harbour, London; sensational acoustics, a wonderful Steinway baby grand (always immaculately tuned), excellent treatment (by deliciously cooked Cantonese meals and fine wines), regular Sunday lunchtimes. I was actually us who introduced live jazz into this venue. Alas, after a couple of years, rather unidentifiable decision makers in the distance of dozens or perhaps hundreds of miles away got the idea that it would be wiser to save the money and spend it probably in advertising or such like.
b) Sala Carrera, Marchena (in Andalucía). Actually only one of six venues in and around Seville we played during the Festival de Jazz en la Provincia. We were supported by an excellent technical crew with a sound engineer who certainly knew exactly what he was doing and our pianist played the same Yamaha grand of immaculate condition every night (yes, the instrument was carted around with us). I only picked up the Sala Carrera because we received a flamenco applause from the audiences.
c) Salle des Fates, Munster (in Alsace); large venue in a small idyllic town set in gorgeous landscape. Could take my own quintet unfortunately only once to their Jazz Festival but most gladly returned twice with other ensembles. An 800-seat venue filled with 1200 absolutely enthusiastic audiences, with most generously dimensioned stage fitted with flawless technology.
The first Jazz album I bought was: Graeme Bell (recorded in 1947 in Czechoslovakia, banned a year later after the communist coup d'etat and re-released on an EP (those little 45 r.p.m. things) in the wake of de-Stalinization ten years later).
What do you think is the most important thing you are contributing musically? Choosing my repertoire, I look for beautiful melodies. It's also beautiful melodies which I attempt to create during improvised choruses. In other words, beautiful melodies are my ultimate goal, for that's exactly what I want my audiences to hear. They have to endure more than enough ugliness in their daily lives and are exposed to it more than enough by all sorts of media. So, they most certainly don't need even more ugliness from me.
How would you describe the state of jazz today? Most unsatisfactory, to say the least, and getting worse. That's nothing to do with the quality of the musicians which, on the contrary, is rising. Scores of brilliant youngsters appear on the scene, new faces every year, and one better than the other. Which is, actually, how things should be, in music and in any other field of human activity. Alas, these brilliant youngsters face dwindling numbers of venues, festivals and other possibilities to perform for a half decent fee, just like the rest of us.
What are some of the essential requirements to keep jazz alive and growing? Jazz programs on radio and television should be relocated back from 1 a.m. or 2.30 a.m. to an evening or day time when school kids, youngsters and members of professions other than of night security have chance to listen to them, Also, educational jazz concerts (as well as symphonic concerts, by the way) should be staged for schools, free of charge for the kids, of course (or at least for those from poor families of which we have a vast and growing number and which would be otherwise excluded by their poverty).
What is in the near future? Good question. Sorry, don't have a crystal ball. I'm working on all sorts of things but there is no way of knowing right now what will come up in the end.
If I weren't a jazz musician, I would be a: freelancer again but this time in some far more stable, secure and lucrative activity like perhaps dealing in futures and options or betting on horses.

Neighborhoods: Downtown
Nice but out dated – I loved parting here about 10 years ago, i think I think its time for a make over people!
the velvet dog – I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Velvet Dog. The staff was very friendly, and the colorful atmosphere and sound really brings the place to life.
The BEST Danceclub in Cleveland!!! – The Velvet Dog is constantly reinventing itself. If you haven't been lately, stop through!! They must have recently upgraded their sound, lights, and DJ's because it was an amazing experience. By far the best place to dance in Cleveland, and the Roof-Top has private Cabanas you can reserve and the best view of the City anywhere. The staff is beautiful and friendly. Great Friday Happy Hour as well!! Keep it up!
The Dog is best on West 6th. – I'd have to say that me and my friends had a great time last weekend at the Dog. The DJ was great and they played everything from r&b, pop, and remixes that I never heard before. If you want a change a pace, rooftop patio is all I got to say. I've been to every club on West 6th, and I always start or end my night at the Velvet Dog, most of the time I do both.
VD is your best chance in Cleveland to get VD – If you go to VD, you are probably in the under 25 club and have no hobbies outside of beer and sports.
Women, you are most likely to find guys with their hats cocked 45 degrees coming up behind you rubbing their crotch in your behind and flipping out lines like "Hey girl, you are looking so fine I wanna make you mine"
---Welcome to the Mecca of Midwest guidodom.
Guys, if you are looking for easily impressed women, well look no further. You could be a highly edumicated person here. <---and yes that was the intended spelling.
Unimaginative top 40 music combined with the most unimaginative crowd in Cleveland that knows fashion from solely from an A&F catalog. Khakis, really? REALLY? I thought people only danced in circles in high school and in movies. I was wrong.
The upside of this place is it's rooftop deck, which is by the best in the city during the summer. Unfortunately you have most of the same crowd here.
If you like to run in the middle of the pack and don't like to step out front, then this is the place for you after every Cavs game you go.
Great place to have a party – I had my office party here and everything was great! Great job, bravo on all accounts!! The music, staff and space was perfect to deal with....
Great club! – The few times I've been to the VD have always been fun, very fun. It's not Studio 54, but not bad for Cleveland, OH. I've had friends from out-of-town there and they've been very impressed, too. Great place to people watch - never a dull moment! The 3rd floor lounge and the roof-top tiki bar are my favorites. The staff is always friendly, especially Karen who works the 3rd floor on weekends. She is terrific!!!
This typical dance club's pee(p) show gets all the press. – The Scene
There's one window that gets plenty of talk at the Dog: It's a one-way mirror in the men's room that overlooks the dance floor, allowing visiting males a gander at the evening's prospects. But the ground-level innovations stop with the pee(p) show. Its first floor possesses all the familiar trappings of a typical dance club. However, this relatively swank Warehouse District spot added two more floors that pull in huge weekend crowds.
The Draw
What may seem like a thinning of the crowd may actually be the pull of the third floor--a smaller, hip zone that includes a lively open rooftop bar. These flashes of inspiration bode well for the future, because the Dog already enjoys the reputation for being one of the better-maintained pop stops on the dance circuit. It also offers a clean blend of safe, '80s-influenced dance cuts, perfect for the young professional crowd.

Trend reports can often seem a world away from the everyday realities of your business. But when a trend passes from fad to major consumer movement, you don't want to be out of the loop. So when we researched this year's hot trends, we hunted for those that can affect your business now. No waiting to see if the early adopters get bored. No guessing whether you'll alienate current customers with a weird fad. These are the things your customers will want tomorrow, whether they know it today or not.
Who wants to serve Velveeta to guests when you can offer handcrafted cheese made from local, organic dairy milk? Why wear clothes from the mall when you can purchase the handiwork of a local designer-U.S.-made and sweatshop-free? Buying products with an aura of authenticity allows people to take control of their purchases so they truly know what they're getting. They can be unique and shop at businesses they feel akin to politically, ethically and aesthetically.
Food lovers have long embraced authentic products-microbrews, homemade salsas and fiery hot sauces, aged olive oil, and sea and kosher salts. Heck, even men's lifestyle magazine Details recently recognized the gourmet possibilities of the humble olive. "Microcheeseries" like Beecher's Handmade Cheese in Seattle's Pike Place Market; Bingham Hill Cheese Co. in Fort Collins, Colorado; and Cowgirl Creamery in Point Reyes, California, are riding this niche by creating fresh cheeses for choosy customers.
How can a company tout its authenticity? You can make like Apple Computer, Levi Strauss & Co. and Mercedes-Benz and use real customers in your ads. Brag about your use of local ingredients and materials, traditional and artisanal methods, or environmentally and socially responsible practices. If you do it right, your customers will then preen to friends about how authentic they are for patronizing your authentic business.
Age 35
How can you reach a 19-year-old undergrad, a 31-year-old on the career path, and a 47-year-old who's raising a toddler-with just one message? Market to all of them as if they're 35. From using Botox to erase any physical signs of aging to shopping at the same stores as their kids to postponing their retirements, boomers refuse to grow older. If you targeted them at their true ages, they'd balk.
But surprisingly, younger people are also generation hopping. They're rejecting the belly- and booty-baring fashions of late and-gasp!-embracing sensible, preppy outfits. It's a backlash that may reflect the current conservative climate (thanks a lot, Janet and Justin) or that the latest generation has grown up with different aspirations. Kids now save for iPods and video games. Your teenage niece can code a website better than you. Dreams of becoming an actress or a rock star have turned into dreams of becoming young tech moguls, millionaire sports stars or multihyphenate entertainers like singer-actress-spokesperson Beyoncé, who recently signed a five-year, $4.7 million contract with L'Oreal. Reaching such heights, teens know, takes serious work.
So with the more mature seeking a return to their youthful selves, and young people looking to the future, age 35 has become a golden median, as a recent Los Angeles Times article explored. Target this age group, and you may end up hooking more customers than you ever anticipated.
Multitasking and Memory Loss
In our jam-packed society, it seems the only thing there's a lack of is time. Whether this overextension of our lives is self-inflicted is an argument for another article, but multitasking seems here to stay. People are watching TV while surfing the net, driving while chatting on their cells, and checking their e-mail on PDAs during meetings. TV series are having shorter seasons, and popular magazines like Maxim and Star pack plenty of blurbs, lists and photos for quick digestion.
But as a result of our inability to focus on anything for longer than a millisecond, our memories may be shorting out. Studies show that what's often assumed to be age-related memory loss may actually be due to multitasking, depression and stress.
While an obvious opportunity for aging boomers and rampant multitaskers will be memory aids (both pharmaceutical and herbal), courses and guides, we wouldn't be surprised if consulting firms dealing with the negative effects of multitasking skyrocket in the near future.
The widening of Americans isn't news anymore, but this is an incredibly vast market still worthy of entrepreneurial exploration. Health care, food service, apparel manufacturing and retailing, medical device manufacturing and retailing-all these industries are touched by what many consider a national health crisis.
There seem to be two sides to this trend: Helping people lose weight and helping heavier people live more comfortably. For the former, fast-food chains are lightening their menus, while more and more school districts are removing junk food from campuses and replacing it with healthier options. Health club membership rose by 8.5 percent between 2002 and 2003, according to market research firm American Sports Data Inc. and the International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association. And Medicare recently began covering gastric bypass surgery.
On the flip side, more than 60 percent of women and teens wear plus-size clothing, and the kids plus-size apparel market is growing. (See "Kids Plus-Size Clothing" for more information.) A burgeoning industry is the manufacture and sale of larger everyday products-fanny packs, airline seat belt extenders, bath towels, tape measures, socks, desk chairs, even caskets-for obese customers. William J. Fabrey and Nancy Summer of Amplestuffin Bearsville, New York, have been catering to this market since 1988; while Tim Barry, owner of Scale-IT.comin Vancouver, Washington, has created a booming business selling higher-capacity scales. Products like these are the very definition of a niche, and with that kind of focus, new players will find there's still room in this market for growth.

Say you already got the service from their competitor.
Say the person they called for is dead.
Or if they ask about windows say that they called a cell phone and your cardboard box has none!
Simply hang up instead of thinking of ways to mess with people who are required to read from that stupid script and probably hate their job?

If you have a question about my religion, or wish to discuss my religion, the Bible, or anything related to this topic, feel free to PM or VM me or take a look at the information in my profile.
Ah telemarketers. Unless they really are complete ***holes, they probably hate their job. So when one calls me, I try to be nice to them above all else. I know this wasn't with a telemarketer, but just a couple of days ago some members of some religious group came up to me with one of those mini-bibles and wanted to give me one and tell me about some crazy belief of theirs. So in response, I told them I already had one of those mini-bible-thingies, and that I found it "enlightening" and tied in some of my own wisdom with whatever belief they were preaching. They seemed really happy when I said goodbye to them.
So a strategy like this might work for telemarketers as well. Alternatively, you might try being silly about it. Maybe sound like an automated message and say something along the lines of "The number you have reached has been disconnected. Please contact (name of phone company) for further assistance." And just keep repeating this.
Or if you really do want to weird the telemarketer out, pretend to flirt with the caller.

Ask them really odd questions that are related to the thing they're selling. Yes, oh your selling internet? Okay continue. Oh, good download rates and streaming? Well then, how long would it take me to download some porn? 5 minutes? Great.
They never called again. XD
My Dad has played this one before;
1- Answer the phone.
2- Place handset down gently.
3- Walk away for a good 10 minutes.
4- Pick up handset. (They've likely to have hung up long ago)
5- Win Win.
Don't answer when they phone you.
Hang up?
I don't have time to **** around with telemarketers. Sorry.
If you can do a decent impression of Liam Neeson just repeat what he says during the phone scene in Taken, I do this a lot. Or you can just prolong the conversation until you "decide" the product isn't for you.
1. Pretend you're from a different time period or a fantasy world or something. I once had a daydream about doing this where I was a faery tale princess. I would open with "Hello, if you'd kindly send a letter with your request to the Royal Postman and tell them Princess Millicent sent you, I'd be much obliged." I'd then pretend to be said postman, and, after joking about having never heard of the contraption of which they speak, telling them that they may have inquired about a vision the princess has seen in the magic mirror, but that the caller must hurry in providing a solution before the princess falls victim to the evil sorcerer's curse. In the daydream, the caller laughed and hung up, needless to say.
2. If you know a foreign language, speak entirely in that language and try to convince the caller that you don't know any English. Although be sure it's a language they probably don't know--i.e. if the caller sounds Indian, don't speak Hindi or Punjabi. French and Spanish are probably not good ideas no matter who the caller is, since those languages are pretty commonly known.
3. Make baby sounds the entire time, and try to eat the phone as well.
4. Act like a famous fictional character, if you can do a good impression of one. I once had a daydream about this where I pretended to be a Pikachu.
