No Deals. The sequester is his own fairy tale, let him own it.

It´s time for the people of United States to understand that we do not have a president. We have a community organizer Marxist-in-Chief! There´s nothing in Obamas life or resume that shows he knows how to lead, knows how to govern, or knows how to do much of anything! This is the man that was freely elected by a bunch of damn fools!

Obama is not interested in making any deals. He is using this as a stake to drive into the Republican´s heart. He is holding the stake and the press is wielding the hammer.Obama is out demagoging Republicans non-stop. When the sequester happens, it will be all-out political war. The administration will amplify the effects. Departments will instruct employees to refrain from providing services. Air traffic will slow to a near stop because of ´insufficient manpower´ manning the terminals. Trucking will be slowed because of a lack of DoT inspectors - who will be off on breaks when not on furloughs. Any manner of services will be impaired far beyond the effects of the cuts. The press will aid Obama´s cause by promoting endless sob stories. In the end, republicans will be cast as demons, and the Lofos will believe it.

#3, I know. GOP should not rescue Obama OR the American people from what he is doing to them. Who cares anymore that the press blames Republicans? They always will, so double down, stand strong and united and do YOUR job as the House leadership. Any show of cowardice or fear only makes it worse.

If the GOP caves again, I´m done with them.

I have been working at Move
Pros – New management team, innovation is taken really seriously. I like the direction we are going in.
Cons – Benefits are a bit sparse - but the work is good and the Real Estate business is really exciting.
Advice to Senior Management – Continue to let the SMEs lead the way in their areas. Communicate plans to the leaders (below C-level) a bit better.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Read more about Bagan
The highlight for many first-time visitors to Burma, Bagan is a collection of more than 2,000 religious monuments dotted across a sprawling dusty plain backing onto the Ayeyarwady River to the north and west. It is a memorably evocative place to visit and explore -- be it for two days or 10.
Set at the heart of Burma's "dry zone", on first impression Bagan seems to be a particularly inhospitable spot to develop a major centre. This is the driest part of the country and can be brutally hot in April and May before what little rain that does fall arrives. Wrapped on two sides by the Ayeyarwady River, the dusty plain, dotted with brick ruins interspersed with sparse outcrops of straggly trees, Bagan is almost the polar opposite to the lush, heavily forested stone monuments at Angkor Wat in Cambodia.

The price to mail a letter or your bills went up to 46 cents Sunday.
The U.S. Postal Service is also introducing its Global Forever Stamp, allowing customers to mail letters anywhere in the world for one set price of $1.10.
USPS first announced the price changes in October.
The new price is a penny increase from the previous price.
Forever stamps are always good for mailing a one-ounce letter anytime in the future regardless of price changes.
The price increase comes as the U.S. Postal Service continues to search for ways to diversify its business model, reign in legacy costs for retired postal workers and still provide service. Eliminating Saturday mail delivery has been discussed in Congressal hearings, as has closing certain postal locations.

Handlin' The Big Ones
Editor's note: From 1984 until his death in 1989 at age 70, Granville King served as Four Wheeler's Baja Correspondent. A former aerospace engineer and TV screenwriter, Granville retired in 1981 to a trailer located on a bluff south of San Felipe, from whence he filed the monthly dispatches that became known to FW readers as "From the Backcountry,'' a diaristic account of a life lived miles away from electricity or paved roads, his only companion a four-legged mascot (and sometime mentor) named Superdawg.
In addition to his "Backcountry'' series, Granville authored occasional tech articles for us; this one first appeared, in slightly different form, in the February '86 issue. While Granville scrupulously claimed to have tested all of the "field fixes'' included here and judged them workable, we'd advise taking at least one of them with a generous grain of salt . . or knock on wood beforehand.
A gnawing fear can work on the boonie-infested mind of a man in even the finest, newest rig. Can he git back? Regular readers'll no doubt be aware of the prep for gittin' back and the things to keep in your rig's hell box, and mebbe even how to analyze your plight. You're in deep trouble if you haven't memorized these things, since today we do the heavy stuff for flag and country.
Gasoline filter: You feel a pulsation in yore gitalong like you're runnin' out of gas, but that ain't it since you still got half a tank. By vigorous gas goosing you keep 'er alive for a time, but eventually you blunder to a stop and she dies with a gasp. What do you do first?
Isolate. Quick like a bunny you pull one spark plug and whir the mill. Great spark! So, as you knew, it's gotta be the fuel. You break the line on the carb side of the inline filter and whir the engine-very little gas and kinda splotchy. Okay, don't panic yet. You take out the filter and whir the mill again. Now you got lots of gas in heavy, husky spurts. You gotta plugged filter! But there is no filter in the rig's hell box. What must you do? Very simply, cut off an end of the filter pipe right at the filter. Now you got a bridge between the two hose ends. Slide 'em together, and off you go with a mental reminder to get two new filters-one for this Rube Goldberg crutch and one for the hell box.
Fuel pump: But suppose it is not the filter. You say you still get splurtish-to-weak gas, even with the filter out? Then you've bought a Big One; the fuel pump (assuming no loose connections) is not so good. How in jumpin' Jehosophat does a man git back with no fuel pump? Before starting the long walk out, scratch yore curly locks and think.
What does a bleedin' fuel pump do, anyway? Do you have to have one? No! It merely keeps the gas chamber of the carburetor full of gas, that's all. Yeah, it works at some three to seven psi, but only to make sure the float chamber stays full. Henry Ford ran the Model As on gravity feed, and if it was good enough for Henry, it's good enough for us! But how to get a gravity feed since the tank is way back there lurking low?
Simple, ol' bud. Bang or find a hole through your firewall, preferably on the carburetor inlet side. Run a hunka gas hose through there and connect it firmly to the carb where you took out the filter. Bring the other end under the dash and securely tape it there with the opening pointing up. How do we get gas into this kludge? Again, simple. Dump that plastic bottle of differential fluid with the beveled-end spout. Rinse out with gas. Refill with gas. Apply to the hose to fill the line and carb chamber. You're off! She'll start with the same touch since gas is precisely at the same place it'd be if the fuel pump were working. No difference.
Okay, so you only get about five miles per refill out of the container, but doesn't that beat the alternative all to pieces? If you don't have one now, lay down your loot for one of those beveled-end cans and a 4-foot hunka hose to wrap around it. Or, if you're really loaded, stow a spare fuel pump. Big caution: Though you're goin' outta there like a champ where a lesser man would've walked, you forgot something. You didn't plug that old gas line coming from the pump, and now you got an engine saturated with gas from time to time when she throws out a tad. So plug that line before you go!

Golf Programs to Host Inaugural Tournament
– The North Georgia men's and women's golf teams
are set to host the Inaugural Golf Team Fundraiser Honoring Masters
Champion Tommy Aaron in August at Achasta, a Linger Longer
The Inaugural NGCSU Golf Team Tournament Honoring Tommy Aaron will be held Monday, August 31, 2009, at Achasta in Dahlonega, Ga., the new home for the Saints and Lady Saints on the links.
Entry fee for the tournament will be $600 per team or $150 per golfer. The tournament is limited to the first 25 teams and the course will be closed to outside business with lunch and an auction to follow the event.
Masters Champion Tommy Aaron will be on hand to autograph a photo with a player for $50, while an inaugural North Georgia golf commemorative tray will be given to each participant.
Check-in and photos with Tommy Aaron will be from 7:45 to 8:45 AM. The tournament format will begin at 9:00 AM sharp with a four-man scramble. You may choose your team prior to the tournament or you will be paired by handicaps.
Prizes will be awarded for (1) closest to the pin on every par three and (2) the longest drive on a designated par five. (3) The tournament will award 1st place gross and net teams.
The gem of Achasta is the 6,995-yard, par-72 Achasta Golf Course, a Jack Nicklaus Signature Design. Though surrounded by dramatic tree-lined ridges, Nicklaus seamlessly integrated his award-winning creation into the Chestatee River valley.
North Georgia College & State University President Dr. David Potter announced in January the addition of the new golf programs as NCAA Division II sports competing in the Peach Belt Conference, while naming Achasta Golf pro and long time PGA Professional Tom Fowler as head coach for the programs.
Can't make the event? Stay apart of all the action by becoming a hole sponsor for the tournament, making a contribution to the programs at a gold, silver or bronze level, or by donating a piece of memorabilia to the auction.

Lakers' Bryant, long a holdout, joins Twitter
By Ben Golliver
Lakers guard Kobe Bryant has joined Twitter after years of being the biggest NBA star without a presence on the social networking site.
Bryant's verified account –@KobeBryant — was opened Thursday night and, he posted his first message on Friday morning: "The antisocial has become social #mambatweets".
The tweet, of course, references Bryant's preferred "Black Mamba" nickname. Within an hour of the message being posted, the account had accumulated more than 74,000 followers. Bryant's Facebook page, which is regularly updated, boasts nearly 15 million likes.
Nike Basketball's official account also reported the news on Friday morning. "We'd like to officially welcome 5-time world champion and 14-time All-Star Kobe Bryant to Twitter," the company wrote. "You can always #CountOnKobe."
Over the 2012 holiday season, Bryant commandeered the @NikeBasketball account to promote the latest edition of his signature shoe. Bryant posted photos of his family and the suit he wore to a game, among other tweets.
Back in September 2011, the @KobeBryant account was opened and then shuttered within the space of a few hours. At the time, it was reported that the account was opened "prematurely" and a return was promised, although no date was given.
Bryant, 34, is among the NBA's most popular stars. The five-time NBA champion and two-time Olympics gold medalist is currently the leading vote-getter for the 2013 All-Star Game, topping even LeBron James, and his jersey is the third most popular, trailing only James and Thunder forward Kevin Durant, according to numbers released by the NBA in November.
He'll have some work to do in making up ground to catch his fellow stars when it comes to Twitter followers. As of Friday, James had more than 6.8 million, former Lakers center Shaquille O'Neal has more than 6.5 million, Heat guard Dwyane Wade has more than 3.8 million, Lakers center Dwight Howard has more than 3.7 million, Clippers forward (and Kardashian associate) Lamar Odom has more than 3.5 million, Durant has more than 3.3 million and Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony has more than 2.7 million.

The changes come as part cost-saving measure in the face of declining readership and advertising, part refocusing of resources toward the company's growing digital presence, according to Robert Jackson, Consolidated Publishing Company's vice president for sales.
"The Monday newspaper is our lowest-circulation newspaper," Jackson said. "If you look at circulation numbers and look at advertising revenue, it is the lowest product."
The company will stop publishing the Monday print editions sometime in October, Star Editor Bob Davis said. Readers will be able to access new content on Mondays by visiting the paper's website, annistonstar.com. The Monday Record, which includes weekly lists of felony crimes, divorces, bankruptcies and other public records and statistics, will move to the Sunday paper. Meanwhile, the Escapes section, currently an insert in the Friday paper, will stop printing in August. The arts and features stories usually found there – as well as the weekly schedule of television shows – will be wrapped into the Sunday paper's current Life section. Starting in August, that section will be called Life & Arts.
"We are trying to retain the core of what we do: local news, sports and information," Davis said.
In addition to the printing changes, The Star has also notified the Associated Press that it will end its contract with the wire service in two years, and, at that point, stop using AP material.
The AP requires two years' notice before a publication can get out of its contract. Davis told newsroom staffers Monday that a different, less expensive agreement could be worked out with the wire service before those two years are up.
In May, the members of the Consolidated Publishing board asked Davis and Jackson to examine the company's products, determine what was working and "what are we spinning our wheels on?" Davis said.
The Monday paper and the Escapes section stood out as the latter in terms of advertising support and readership, Jackson said.
For example, in the subscription period that includes July 2012, Anniston Star circulation on Mondays is a little more than 19,000, data from the advertising department shows. That's 18 percent lower than the Sunday circulation for the same subscription period, at just more than 22,400.
"What it really is doing is adjusting the market reality of the days advertisers want to advertise in the paper and readers want to read," Jackson said of the decision to stop printing the Monday edition.
Just because a paper stops publishing its print editions on certain days does not mean it sacrifices quality, especially if that organization continues to provide news on other platforms, said Julie Moos, the director of Poynter Online. Poynter is a Florida-based nonprofit that provides journalism education and analyses of the media industry.
It's a challenging time for newspapers across the country which, like The Star, are facing declining ad revenues and -- in some cases -- declining circulation, Moos confirmed. On the other hand, the Poynter Online director noted that Sunday circulation is up at some papers.
"So it's interesting that the paper is shifting some of its coverage to Sunday; I don't think that's surprising," Moos said.
Davis stressed there will be continue to be fresh content on the Star website on Mondays for readers, and no one is being laid off within the company. Moos was interested in the latter aspect of the changes at Consolidated Publishing, she said, because a Poynter analysis of announced printing reductions and job layoffs at the Times-Picayune in New Orleans shows the savings there come from the personnel layoffs.
"I'm not sure how they find cost savings in cutting print days because they actually are losing some advertising revenue," Moos said of the upcoming changes at The Star.
In general, Jackson listed a number of factors — from slashing delivery and newsprint costs to overtime payments — that mitigate what is lost in ad revenue from ceasing the Monday print edition and Escapes sections.
Executives at Consolidated Publishing feel the upcoming changes are proactive ones that will allow them to focus on the growing consumption of news on digital platforms.
Currently, an independent consulting firm in Fayetteville, N.C., is studying and analyzing the online revenue and publishing trends at Consolidated Publishing. That study should be completed in August, Jackson said, and will help the company develop "a strategic plan to grow online both in advertising and in circulation."
Meanwhile, the circulation department is finalizing a plan to adjust subscription rates for readers who, come October, will receive one less paper per week, or 52 fewer papers per year. People who have already paid their subscriptions for the coming year will see those subscriptions extended one day for every Monday paper that has been taken away, said Dennis Dunn, the Star's circulation director.
Otherwise, Dunn said, plans to adjust the subscription rates have not yet been hammered out.
"We'll do something that's fair and equitable for our readers," Jackson said.
There will, too, be special occasions when The Star publishes Monday print editions, Davis said, pointing to NASCAR race weekends at Talladega as an example of when that could occur.
"In the long run I think both our print and online properties are going to be much better for our local readers – and consequently more attractive for our advertisers," Jackson said.

Italian >Bacco Ristorante & Bar
107 Salem St, Boston, MA | Directions 0211342.363634 -71.055791
Daily 5pm-1am
Neighborhoods: Central, North End
Provided by CityGrid
Every night, (except Saturday), Enjoy $5 appetizers at the Bar.
Great Food & Drinks w/ Open Air Dinning – Bacco is a great spot with amazing food and cocktails. I love the open air feel now that the weather is getting warmer. I have stopped in many times for the $5 appetizers after work and I have never been disappointed. The restaurant has that north end appeal with a staff that is very attentive & courteous. I don't usually write reviews but I feel that Bacco deserved one.
Also I've been going to Bacco since I moved to Boston 4 years ago and they just came out with a new cocktail list that I suggest taking a look at.
Best Food and Drinks in the North End! – I've been going to Bacco at least once a week for the last year. They serve $5 appetizers on the first floor and have a full bar. It's always a fun crowd, not too young, pretty hip, lots of locals. I always get the beef carpaccio with gorgonzola and the mussels - both $5. They never disappoint. Oh, and the martinis are amazing too - not syrupy and sweet like some of the other restaurants in this neighborhood.
Best North End Spot – Bacco is my favorite spot in the North End and I have been to most over the years. The food is absolutely to die for. Pair that with an incredable atmosphere and it's really hard to beat. I have tried most things on the menu and have yet to dislike anything. They have a great wine list but I usually stay with the red. It's warm, cozy, and makes you feel like your part of the North End charm!!!
My Favorite In Boston! – I just went back to Bacco for my 5th time this past Saturday night and have to say this is my favorite restaurant in Boston. Great spot in the North End and the restaurant is romantic, beautiful, warm and cozy. Great wine selection and service is good and polite, not the best in the world, but the real key is the food. Absolutley amazing and they are good portions with good prices. I keep reading people say it's expensive, well clearly they don't get out much because I could name 100 places in Boston that are far more expensive and not as good. Bacco has great specials each time I go, but the Butternut Squash or the Lobster Ravioli is increadable. I keep ordering one of the two each time I go. I can't bring myself to try more of the menu. I would highly recommend Bacco!
Very nice experience in Boston Italian dining in the North end. – We visited as tourists in Boston, but not as "fine dining virgins." It was a beautiful Monday evening and we wanted a really good restaurant with a full bar (surprisingly difficult to find in Boston - ask your concierge.) Bacco provided relaxed elegance. The windows (not really windows actually - no glass to be found) were open to the street and it was a wonderful city atmosphere. We were taken to the second floor and seated near an opening over the street, which was busy with foot traffic. I loved the setting and the atmosphere.
Our server was both pleasant and knowledgeable. We enjoyed a leisurely cocktail without any pressure. I ordered the evening's seafood puttanesca special with shrimp and mussels. It was excellent. The pasta was perfect and the shrimp were crisp and sweet. My husband ordered chicken marsala with asparagus and polenta from the regular menu. His chicken was fresh, tender and delicious. He reported the asparagus (a favorite of his) was perfectly prepared.
We both enjoyed our dinner thoroughly. The chef is clearly talented, ingredients are fresh and the wait staff knows what they are doing. The atmosphere is lovely, both of the neighborhood and the restaurant itself. We took a cab from and back to Cambridge for our dinner in the North End and had a wonderful experience. This is a lovely restaurant.
Best Italian in Boston – Bacco is my favorite restaurant since I moved to the North end. The atomosphere is amazing and romantic.
The staff are attentive and friendly. My fav. is the risotto del giorno, loaded with fresh seafood with tomato creme. I take all my friends and families there when they come visit. Sometimes they sent me complimentary tira misu after my meal, how can you beat that!!!
Great italian food! – Wonderful Italian restaurant in the North End. Fabulous desserts and a great atmosphere in the bar!
overrated and bad service – The food at Bacco is overrated, expensive, and comes in tiny portions. While I thought the garlic oil and hummus that comes with the table bread was delicious, the bread itself was stale and the food took over an hour to arrive at the table. My boyfriend ordered the carpaccio appetizer and the Mezzolune entree with two glasses of wine. We waited over an hour to receive our entree and despite the high prices, there was no apology for the incredibly slow service. Although I appreciated that they split the entree for us (we were sharing) and the food was decent, there was nothing that wowed us except the high prices.
feel like being in Italy – My husband and I were in your restaurant on Sunday
evening and I just had to write and let you know what a wonderful time
we had. We were in town because of an appointment at Brigham & Women's
the next morning. As we were a little anxious about the appointment,
we really wanted to find a place where we could have a lovely meal and
a relaxing time without having to dress up. We were concerned about our
attire (shorts and shirts) but we were warmly welcomed by your
hostess. We sat at the two top right at the entrance and proceeded to
have an incredible evening. Appetizers, wine, entrees - everything was
just delicious. Our server, Katie, was very sweet and attentive
without being overly so and not once did we feel rushed to give up our
seats. The atmosphere was so inviting (especially with the open
windows and the sunlight on the buildings) that is was hard to believe
we weren't in Italy.
We will highly recommend Bacco to anyone visiting Boston and we hope to be able
to return again soon.

Portman's support should help Treasury candidate Lew win Senate confirmation
The Columbus Dispatch - February 25, 2013 7:02 PM
Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, said tonight he would support the nomination of Jack Lew as Treasury secretary. If confirmed by the Senate, Lew, currently White House chief of staff, would replace Timothy Geithner, who served as President Barack Obama's Treasury secretary during his first term.
Portman's decision suggests that Lew will quickly be confirmed by the Senate. In a statement, Portman said that "we're past the point where Washington can push off tough decisions. In order to get our economy moving and address the nation's record debt and trillion-dollar deficits, the next Treasury secretary must work with Congress to reform the tax code and our vital yet unsustainable entitlement programs. "
"In my conversations with Director Lew, both before and during the Senate Finance Committee hearing, he indicated a willingness to seek such needed reforms. As I would expect to be the case with any nominee being put forward by the Obama Administration to fill this important position, we won't see eye to eye on some of the specific solutions, but Jack Lew's willingness to try to find common ground on these fiscal matters and his experience of working on bipartisan results over the past two decades are hopeful signs."'

Fall has officially arrived and it's definitely one of the funnest fashion seasons for trying out new trends. Dress up your look with fun, vibrant patterns and prints. We are currently obsessing over the printed, harem pantsook!
Try anything from floral printed pants paired with a basic tank or tee and cropped blazer inspired by the queen of mixing prints, Oliva Palermo. Or you can opt for a trendy black and white print teamed up with neon and metallic jewels.
Naturally, we turned to Pinterest to find some added inspiration from celebs to street style stars for our fall print fashion fix. Check the slideshow below to skim our fave picks!

By Sam Forgione and Matthew Goldstein
OK, so it's not a big gig like being nominated to head the Treasury Dept. But President Obama's decision to tap PIMCO's Mohamed El-Erian to head the President's Global Development Council is no insignificant matter.
As the co-chief investment officer of the giant bond shop founded by Bill Gross, El-Erian is seen as the eventual heir apparent to run the Newport Beach, Calif firm. And El-Erian increasingly has become one of PIMCO's most visible faces—maybe even more than Gross himself these days–when it comes to talking about what ails the U.S. and global economies.
The assignment is another indication of PIMCO's growing ties to the Washington establishment, something that has developed as the firm has grown to manage $1.92trillion in assets and played a starring role along with BlackRock in helping to manage some of the financial crisis rescue programs. (For more see the Special Report that Jenn Ablan led earlier this year on Gross and his empire, Twilight of the Bond King).
The job, in which El-Erian will serve as chairman, also is one more example of Obama's outreach to the financial and business communities in the wake of his re-election. In the wake of his victory, Obama seems to be going out of his way to dispel the views that he pays no heed to what Wall Street or the business community thinks.
Obama established the Council that El-Erian, 54, will head, earlier this year, with the aim that its members would advise him on issues such as sustainable economic growth and opportunities for partnership between the public and private sectors.

Brothers Joseph and Charles Douaihy are young, gay and having a hell of a year. Their father has died and their uncle is losing it — putting the brothers' once unbreakable sense of humor to the test. As if that's not enough, Joseph is battling a mysterious ailment, and his eccentric boss is pressuring him to write a memoir about his Maronite Catholic family's tenuous connection to Kahlil Gibran, author of "The Prophet." Things get even more intense when an ambitious and sexy reporter descends on the family in search of a story. Stephen Karam, author of the Stray Cat hits "Speech and Debate" and "columbinus" pens a brutally funny comedy about family, culture and how where we come from plays a part in how we cope with wounds that just won't heal.

My daughter will be 1 month on the 25th of August. She is bottle fed. My question is about about bottle nipples is it normal for the nipple to collapse when she is eating, its like she is sucking hard, does that mean she needs a different kind? I am using Dr. Browns nipples level one, its a slow flow i really dont think she needs fast flow but not sure, anyone else experience this?!? Also this just started happing 2days ago
YES!! My daughter did the same thing and I found out that the flow was too slow so I had to drive all over God's creation looking for medium flow because the fast was tooo fast. I was using Playtex drop in system though and I don't know if that makes a difference or not.
That's a good question. My son is 6 weeks today and we are still on level 1 of Dr. Brown's. I'm wondering when we are supposed to move to level 2. Hopefully someone has an answer!
My son is 12 weeks and is still on the level 1 nipples for Dr. Brown bottles. I was just doing some research and it seems that the level 2 nipples are for 3 months and older. I'm thinking i'm going to have to move up to them because he has started acting like he doesn't want all of his bottles sometimes. I was thinking it might be thats it not coming out fast enough for him and he is getting frustrated.
My daughter is two months old and she is also collapsing the nipple's that are level one. I havent thought about changing to a higher flow to fix it becose she is lurning that if she lets go for a second she can start geting the good flow of milk agen. I think its realy cool that shes lurning so fast and who knows what elce this could help her lurn.

Beautiful Invitations
Charming Lavender Rectangle Invitations These invitations are beautiful. We were able to customize to pretty much anything that we wanted. They worked really well with the theme of our wedding and look classy and whimsy. Even the card stock they came printed on was good quality and looked very professional. It was so easy to be able to log in and do exactly what we wanted just by clicking and typing. No hassle or fuss. We were even able to order just a single invitation to see what it would look like before ordering all of ours. Thank you!
Charming Lavender Pocket Invitations We fell in love with the simple yet elegant design of this particular invitation. The options to personalize are so handy, and we loved that we could actually see how it looked before it was ordered.
Charming Lavender Pocket Invitations The invitations came out lovely . We are very happy! The customer service was also excellent! I emailed back and forth with a woman named Cynthia and she was VERY helpful!
Fantastic product!
Charming Lavender Pocket Invitations Looks just how I ordered it, and with my exact design specifications. I loved everything about it. The colors are also vibrant and everything easy to read. I loved the design, and also how much I could actually change in it. The paper is a little different than what I thought it would be, but its a strong paper, and holds up well.

House Fire And No Help
Posted by I want to sit on the lizzard on 01/22/2009
ALABAMA -- My home recently caught fire. I was asleep when my chimney caught on fire. It was in the middle of the day. I had only lived in my home for two years and only would burn certain wood in my fireplace. I am fairly young and did not know how often I should have my chimney cleaned... however I notified travelers within one hour of my house catching on fire, after twenty four hours of not hearing anything from them I decided to call them back. It took almost 48 hours for someone to call me back to tell me to use my deductible money to check myself into a hotel, which they would only approve for three days. They also stated I would either have to buy my own personal items like toothbrush, makeup, and other supplies I needed for a family of four or I could ask the hotel for assistance with those items since is was short on cash. One person at travelers did tell me I should have received an emergency check hand delivered by a local agent, but when my claim handler finally notified me two and half days later she said no we would not receive any money upfront, we would be reimbursed for any extra expenses we occurred out of pocket!! THANKS FOR THE HELP AFTER A TRAUMATIC EVENT, ESPECIALLY SINCE I WAS IN THE ER WITH SMOKE INHALATION!!!!!!!!!!
Therefore it is now four days after my fire and I still cannot get a claim handler to return my call nor will her supervisor do anything to help me but will defend his employee by saying she out of town... Well since I have nothing to wear or no where to live I guess I can wait for her to get back in town... By the way her out of town is located twenty minutes from my house. TRAVEL AS FAR AWAY FROM TRAVELERS INSURANCE AS YOU CAN. my two small children don't understand why mommy and daddy are so upset and why we can't go home.... thanks again Travelers/Gieco.
OK, so now we are back in home, we have no carpet on the steps, no furniture in the living room, we are beginning the painting and floor refinnishing... and just recieved two checks from the insurance company...over a month after my loss. what i really thought was funny, on one of my bills it stated that travelers insurance co. is there for you quickly when you need them???? well, i guess their one mistake was my family. OOPS, MY BAD! we recieved a twenty something page confusing discription of what should be done to repair the house and my husband told me our agents supervisor told me had the comment on here printed out and with him...(hey, i hope you and your family are comfortable in your home because you have not helped my family, unless that includes giving us more stress and anxiety after my house caught on fire...thanks again!!) also, if you have travelers which is through geico, you get a depreciated value of what it costs to repair your home...until all the work is done and then they will reimburse you for the smallest amount. oh, that is so helpful, my house just burnt, you told me my medical ins. has to pay for my medical bills, i can only speak with my agent when it is convenient for them, i get a depreciated value of what it takes repair my house, i have pay for my own expenses for not being able to live in my home, ghee i forgot, i could go ask a hotel for help, or call the red cross as i was told,i put up front the depreciated value to fix my house, and my deductible and then wait who knows how long before i can get a check for the depreciated value.
CHECK THIS OUT THE DAY THE AGENT CAME OUT TO MY HOUSE, NOT ONLY WERE THEY NOT TOO CONCERNED ABOUT THE DAMAGE TO MY HOUE BUT THEY SENT ME A LETTER STATING I HAD TO HAVE A CRACK IN MY SIDEWALK FIXED AND A PATCH ON THE ROOF THAT HAS BEEN THERE SINCE 1998 WHEN A TORNADO CAME THROUGH, BY MARCH OR THEY ARE GOING TO CANCEL MY HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE IN OCTOBER. ALSO THE AGENTS WERE NOT PROFESSIONALLY DRESSED, NO NAME TAGS WERE WORN, OUR AGENT INRODUCED HERSELF BUT, THE MAN WITH HER THAT DAY, WELL, I GUESS HIS NAME WAS BOB. WHILE THE REPORT WAS BEING WRITTEN MY HARTH WAS USED A FOOT STOOL, AND THE TAPE MEASURE WAS SCRAPED ALL ACROSS MY FLOORS AND WALLS, LIKE I HAD NOT SEEN ENOUGH DAMAGE TO MY HOUSE I HAD TO WATCH MY OWN INSURANCE AGENTS DISRESPECT MY HOME IN FRONT OF ME, THEN THE GALL TO SEND ME A LETTER TO FIX AND REPAIR THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN THERE FOR YEARS...NOT TO MENTION A LETTER STATING MY INSURANCE IS GOING UP IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THIS. ooooohhhhh, I FAILED TO MENTION THAT I AM HAVING TO WAIT FOR AN APPROVAL TO PUT THE EXACT SAME CARPET THAT CAME OUT OF MY HOUSE BACK IN IT? OK, I STILL HAVEN'T FIGURED THAT OUT, I THINK THET SHOULD BE WEARY IF I WAS TRYING TO PUT A DIFFERENT TYPE CARPET IN?!?!?!?

Where is your agent? He or she should be assisting you with this.
Posted by madconsumer on 2009-01-22:
if your policy states 'reimbursement' then you wont get cash upfront. this is a feature one must verify before the policy is signed. look at your policy, and see what it states about emergency cash payments.
Posted by i want to sit on the lizzard on 2009-02-01:
agent? they came out to look at my house 5 days after it caught on fire, when i would call customer service they said you must talk to your agent who by the way would not answer her phone.RRRRRRUUUUUUNNNNNNN IF YOU HEAR THE NAME TRAVELERS INSURANCE OR YOU MAY GET BURNT TOO.

I suggest that you both get lawyers.
Contact your state's insurance board and the National Insurance Crime Bureau.
Posted by Anonymous on 2011-11-15:
It is probably because your adjuster has already gotten 80 claims for the month! Typically, 40 is the perfect number of claims but Travelers feels that the best way to increase production is to abuse customers and employees alike.

Homeowners Insurance Fraud
Posted by SallyB on 01/06/2010
GLEN FALLS, NEW YORK -- Travelers is blatantly and fraudulently denying my claim for hail damage to my roof in spite of overwhelming evidence of such damage.
In April 2008 every roof in my neighborhood sustained hail damage. All my neighbors (including the entire new townhouse development behind me) had to have their roofs replaced due to hail damage. Travelers admits I sustained hail damage…to the vents on my roof. They have even sent me a check for $232.55 for "repairs due to hail damage." However, according to Travelers, the hail was very selective. While it damaged my vents, it did not damage my shingles. I can only assume thousands of little old men in derby hats were out there holding their red umbrellas over my roof...but not over my vents.
Travelers claims the damage to my roof was caused by "heat blistering," a condition resulting from inadequate venting...even though Travelers contradicts their own assertion by admitting I must have vents since these vents were damaged by the selective hail. Further, heat blistering damage would have to come from underneath the shingles, not from on top as the damage to my roof. Three roofers have given their opinions that I do not and could not have heat blistering, that the damage is due to hail.
I have submitted to Travelers 2 estimates from reputable roofing companies in this area which estimates assert that the damage to my roof was caused by hail, but Travelers continues to deny my claim.
I am a senior citizen, female and single. I believe I am the victim of discrimination. I would like to make contact with other people who have had similar experiences with Travelers with the proposed goal of a class action lawsuit for discrimination and damages. If you have been thus victimized and fall into the above-referenced categories, please post to this website.

Unfortunately you are dealing with a crooked insurance company. Your only hope is to report this case to your State insurance commissioner. This is the only way you can make them do what they are supposed to do. If more people would file complaints to their insurance commissioner about Travelers crooked tactics, they will change their behavior. This is the only thing they are afraid of.
Posted by SallyB on 2010-01-10:
Thanks, caveman54. I have contacted the Missouri Insurance Commissioner and will see if that does any good. Appreciate the advice!

GOOD LUCK WITH TRAVELERS INSURANCE YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
Posted by beendonewrong on 2010-04-13:
Travelers has denied my claim of hail damage twice and I did file a complaint with State Insurance Commissioner. They contacted Travelers and then sent me the Travelers story and told me to get a STRUCTURAL ENGINEER at my expense if I thought Travelers was incorrect. HAIL damage does not require an engineer. I had two different roofers (out of four)show up with Travelers agent (roofers who previously declared I did have hail damages) to reneg once off roof with agent. I honestly believe these roofing guys got something to say they agreed with the agent and save Travelers the cost of the roofing job! Why, because neither roofer would look me in the eye as the shook their heads and agreed that I had blistering and "some minor hail damage", but not enough to warrant a new roof at Travelers expense.
Before sending my formal complaint to Insurance Commissioner, I did an extensive survey of my subdivision, contacted and received addresses of hail damaged and repaired roofs from three major roofing companies, and went door to door for days to compile a list of homes with new roofs that no longer had signs out to add to my list. THERE WERE 50 HOMES WITH HAIL DAMAGED ROOFS REPLACED! I have photos of my roof,and my neighbor's roof (which did get replaced).Ours leaked in five places in three rooms and his only one very small area in one room, yet entire roof replaced makes me question what is going on here!
Do I feel discriminated against? You Bet I do and today I'm contacting an attorney and two more roofing companies for further evaluation. I would like to have a list of Travelers denied claims homeowners across this country to start a class action suit. Send me your story.
Posted by RoofSouth on 2010-05-19:
I am the owner of RoofSouth (roofing contractor) in Huntsville, AL and I have run up against the same problem as you with a friend of mines home. Let me tell you, the roof is pounded with hail and Travelers only paid $4,400 for a $16,000 re-roof repair. And now, my friends homeowner insurance is going up almost $800.00 a year because of this claim and another they filed last year for a downed tree due to a significant thunderstorm. What is the point of insurance if they are just going to stick it to you in the end. View our blog at http://www.roofsouth.com/blog/
Posted by kephers on 2010-08-06:
you can get an engineers report and if the report is in your behalf the insurance company has to pay up or get sued. Plus they have to pay the engineers report.
Posted by Forewarned on 2013-12-05:
I have just read this thread and though it's 2013, three years later, I'm heeding this warning. Was considering insuring home and 4 vehicles with Travellers but am now striking them off my list.
Posted by Tim W. on 2014-02-03:
I recently purchased a cabin and the roof was replaced as per the purchase agreement. Travelers gave a great rate the first year, but then refused to renew because they claimed there were "lifting and peeling shingles" on the south side of the roof. I gave them documentation that the roof/shingles had all been replaced the summer prior, but it was not sufficient. I had been with Travelers for five years prior to this, but canceled all my accounts after this interaction.

Worst Insurance Company Award / Fraud Specialists...
Posted by JH47 on 08/14/2009
We were hit with a golf ball hailstorm in our neighborhood. All our neighbors, on every side of our home received new roofs by their insurance company due to hail damage. Travelers came out to our home and told us our roof was in excellent condition and by the act of nature we were spared by this storm. We contacted 3 roofing companies and all of the roofers said, "Travelers needs to pay for a new roof. Your roof will be leaking in 6 months. You have hail damage on the North, East, South, and West side of your roof!" I have pictures of big black circles all over the roof, where the hail hit it. Travelers hired an "outside" engineer to tell us our roof was fine. That way in case of a lawsuit they don't have the liability they would have normally had. I am sure the "outside engineer" also received a fat bonus for writing a letter stating our roof was not damaged by hail. Most people will not go through the trouble of pursuing a lawsuit and that is what Travelers is counting on. We pay them homeowners every month to insure our home, and the first time our home is damaged they come out here and tell us they will not pay for it!!!! We have contacted the BBB and Travelers has not responded to them either.

Did all three roofing companies you hired provide a written statement that the roof needed repairs? Remember if it isn't in writing then it's worthless.
Posted by moneybags on 2009-08-15:
BBB has no legal standing to force any company to do anything. It is a voluntary membershiop organization.
Take pictures, get the reports, estimates, etc and send them to Travelers, the adjustor, their legal department, your State Insurance Commissioners Office and your attorney. Let Nationwide know exactly who the info is being sent to. The insurance commissioner and your attorney (or the Judge) are the only ones that can force them to do what's right. Good luck

Travelers Ins. Co. are cold and uncaring
Posted by Frontiermaggie on 09/30/2009
I have Travelers Home owner insurance through Geico. It's over 8 months since I had a house fire ( January 2009) and to this day (9/30/09)Travelers still hasn't finished settling my claim. Travelers are so cold and unfeeling, I've been through a real tragedy, a hardship, I have not been able to live in my house these past 8+ months. The stress from all of this has been making me sick. I made it this far only because of help from friends and family. I couldn't afforded to pay for the reconstruction/repairs myself but even if I could've I was told that I can't make repairs incase they need to re-inspect the property. So I'm at Travelers mercy, which they've shown me none. I've even filed a complaint against Travelers Insurance Co. and the adjuster with the NYS Ins. Dept. but all they did was forward my complaint to Travelers. Travelers weren't concerned, It seems that the NYS INS. Dept. have no real power or they don't care. About 3 weeks ago I received partial payment for my claim, so I've started repairs. I hope by next month, before the winter comes, I'll be back home again and maybe the claim will be finally settled. Travelers are the worst insurance company I've ever seen. The Travelers agents seem caring at first when they want your business, but watch out should you have a claim. I learned the hard way. Once this claim is finally settled I'm changing Insurance companies, I've had enough.

You may want to change insurance companies once you get this claim resolved.
Posted by Skye on 2009-09-30:
Thats crazy. You pay, and then when you need them, they drag you through the mud.
Good luck. I hope your house is rebuilt soon. And take Ms.CBW's advice, change insurance companies after this ordeal is over.
Posted by saj80 on 2009-09-30:
Also, file a complaint with your state's insurance commission immediately; this action gets insurance company's attention very fast.

"Travelers Ins. Co. are cold and uncaring - Home owners Insurance."
Sounds like a typical insurance company. None of them are warm and caring.
Posted by spiderman2 on 2009-09-30:
Aren't Traveler and Geico two different companies?
Posted by voiceoff on 2010-01-03:
In my area Travelers is the company most used and their rates are much higher than other home insurers because they are regarded as giving good coverage. They do seem to hike the rates as much as possible though unless you are on top of it, perhaps. It depends where you live and who your broker is too, I would think.
It is a scary time when there is a fire or flood or whatever, and people are worn out and in need so the way a person is treated is so important.
Hope all works out well in the end.
I had a small claim once many years ago when my fence was destroyed by weather and they did replace it quickly. Not sure about roofing claims though.

Very Satisfied With Claim
Posted by Gcroucher on 01/01/2014
My insurance claim was handled very professional and a check was given to me on the spot which I thought was very fair. I have checked various rates and Travelers was very competitive. I have been with them several years and have both my home and auto with them.

Terrible Customer Service - Suspicious Investigations Methods
Posted by Spombo on 11/18/2013
WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA -- I am outraged by my experience over the past five months regarding Travelers Property Claim HPS4964. The claim is for damages caused by the explosion of a water heater in an upper unit in my condominium building. The uncontained water spillage resulted in serious damages to my apartment as well as to five other units.
Whereas the condominium building's master policy insurance assessed and partially settled some of the damages in two weeks, it took my Travelers insurance two weeks to simply show up and another five months to have a knowledgeable person contact me by telephone. And this only happened after I issued a complaint to a Traveler's VP, Eric Nelson, on Thursday, November 14th.
In addition to unacceptable customer service – including twice losing my receipts and contractors information -- Travelers tried on several occasions to obtain the terms of the settlement with the condominium building's master policy insurance from my building manager without asking me first. The manager refused to share this private information and advised Travelers to contact me.
I do understand the need for Traveler to investigate the claims and support the efforts. However, I find the act of trying to secure clients' private data from a third party unprofessional and unacceptable. I was outraged when Travelers replied: "This is a procedure often used by our insurance claim representatives, and considered natural part of the Investigation."
I have been a loyal customer of Traveler Insurance for several years through my car and home owners' insurance. I expect better quality service. Instead, I received poor quality services at a time when I needed them to deliver the service for which I paid.
I trust this complaint will be investigated and remain open to answer any questions.

A complaint to your insurance commissioner might be in order and you may want to hire an attorney to pursue action against Travelers.
Posted by S Pombo on 2013-11-20:
Thanks that sounds wise. I sent the a registered letter and ask them to respond within two weeks. If not, I will follow your suggestion.
Posted by Weedwhacked on 2013-11-21:
Do you really think "loyalty" goes far with an insurance company? They want you to keep paying them forever, and never make a claim! If you do make a claim, you are their enemy.

Getting Reamed
Posted by MARLOW.TM on 08/10/2013
Traveler's Insurance got us to switch over to them and approved our coverage. They asked to increase the home coverage by over $20,000.00 We agreed and signed up. Well they send their inspector out and decide that to replace this home from a total loss will take more than $60,000 more than the home was valued at PRIOR to the market crash of 08. Talk about unrealistic. Funny thing is, it appears to be an industry wide tactic at the moment as my parents just got hit with the same tactic where their $60,000.00 home is now valued at $175,000.00. This is an unethical company that I am leaving and will not do business with in the future.
To agree to coverage, then send a letter saying if you disagree with our calculations and do not want the additional coverage, please call - then you call and dispute their evaluation - and are told you have no choice but to pay the extra money. Just wrong. I agree to be covered to X amount. If the replacement cost of my house exceeds that amount, then guess what ... I assumed the risk. Any other act by the insurance company is frankly extortion.

A lot like the condo insurance co. I dealt with that would only insure me if I claimed at least $50,000 or more, of contents which includes absolutely nothing that is attached to the unit in any way (not carpets, flooring, cabinets, etc). On top of that, the original policy they issued "for $75,000" [exactly the words they used] turned out to only have $15,000 of structure coverage! Of course I found out when a pipe broke and caused $25000 worth of damage.
The insurance industry is crookeder than a dog's hind leg. It's important to note that they are seeking to reline their pockets after their huge (unexpected) losses on 9/11/2001 and to some degree, Katrina and the other hurricanes that year. Deal with insurance companies as little as possible and as cheap as possible, and for gods sakes, READ that policy carefully.

Repair of Tree Damage to Home
Posted by Bronwen.berliner on 07/30/2013
A large tree fell on my house during Hurricane Sandy and heavily damaged an addition. The room had to be torn off and completely rebuilt. Travelers Insurance Company was excellent, fair and through in handling my claim and assisting me to find good people to do the repair work. I had no surprises related to this claim.

Travelers Homeowners Policy Does Not Cover or Replace Losses.
Posted by HCCVCSC on 07/29/2013
MELVILLE, NEW YORK -- We filed the claim on January 31, 2013 for water damages to our Condo residence . Today it is July 29, 2013, and Kenneth[snip] Travelers Claim Adjuster has failed to complete Travelers obligations in a timely manner and they have also been totally dishonest or truthful in handling any or all claims. Kenneth [snip] will always want to discuss everything verbally because he can lie and promise things that he will not honor if it is not in writing. Do not trust or buy home insurance from Travelers
