New this week Revealing mistake: In the scene where the family is in the car, driving home from the town hall meeting, Homer says "the whole reason we have elected officials is so we don't have to think all the time!"

New this month Revealing mistake: After Lisa says "For a product that's evil and deadly" while standing in front of the tomacco stand, there's a duplicate Lisa behind her that stands still while she moves, giving Lisa the appearance of having two heads. It looks like the animators made a mistake while trying to animate Lisa.
Continuity mistake: This is a mistake for the introduction for the later episodes. When Homer screams, he turns round. You see this in a wide shot. There are no boxes to the right of the door in the garage. However, two just appear out of thin air when he runs through the garage.
Continuity mistake: When Homer's Vegas wife shows him the video in front of Marge, it shows Homer kissing Ned. This didn't happen when she showed it in the Vegas episode.

During a time of an emergency situation, Littleton Electric stepped in and promptly made the necessary repairs to Saks High School's building. As a member of the Calhoun County Board of Education, I would like to express my gratitude and let the company know how much I value it and the work it performed in such a timely manner.
It is nice to know we had Littleton Electric available in a time of need. We are very proud of the superior work it performed to enable our children to be back in the classroom.

But on the other side this forum gives a lot of information on how to protect your business against hackers. This is a blackhat and whitehat forum.
Warez refers primarily to copyrighted works distributed without fees or royalties, and may be traded, in general violation of copyright law. The term generally refers to unauthorized releases by organized groups, as opposed to file sharing between friends or large groups of people with similar interest using a darknet.

This term was initially coined by members of the various computer underground circles, but has since become commonplace among Internet users and the mass media.

Impressive Customer Service
Posted by Lisal on 10/21/2012
VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA -- Today while waiting to purchase boxes at the public storage on Village Drive in Virginia Beach, I witnessed a woman being down right rude, crude and utterly despicable. I have never seen an adult act this way. I have to tip my hat off to the manager on duty because she tried her best to help this woman. The manager tried to break down her account and explain to her why she owed what she owed and the woman LOST IT.
The manager even tried to go over her lease with the woman but she just wasn't listening and kept being crude. It got to the point that I had to step in and tell the woman that the person you are yelling at doesn't make the rules. The woman was so angry she stormed out and left. What was so crazy when leaving the parking lot she hit the key pad on her way out and smashed her car. I have never seen anything like that before IN MY LIFE. I know have a new found respect for individuals in customer service because some people are unbelievable. In my opinion you should treat people how you want to be treated. That saying that the customer is always right is so WRONG!

Unethical Practices by Public Storage
Posted by RobbedbyPublicStorage on 03/24/2010
CALIFORNIA -- Upon going to a public storage facility to setup storage for my household belongings I was somewhat taken back by their ethical practices or lack there of.
When initially meeting the site manager he showed me the facilities and the sizes which was OK however, he took me to what seemed to be the worst storage unit in his facility. It was old and musty and smelled of mold. He seemed pretty unhappy when I asked him if he had any other units for rent.
After finding a unit which fit my needs and didn't smell of must we began to fill out the paperwork. To my surprise the first month was only 1 dollar. Being that moved in at the end of the month he prorated the current month and only charged me 1 dollar for the second month.
However, he had done the same and stated to me that Insurance was Mandatory as well as having to purchase their over priced locks which they have for sale.
I reviewed the contract and asked him specifically about the requirements for moving out. He simply stated that I just needed to give him a 48 hours notice prior to vacating the unit.
After a few months of using the unit I move out on the 12th of the month ensuring that I give the manager his 48 hours. I showed him it was clean and ready for the next tenant. He takes me to his front counter, gathers some information and done. I ask him about a refund since I am only using the unit for half a month and that they prorated my first month moving in so they should prorate me for moving out.
Of course he says he cannot give me a refund and that if I had informed them on the 1st of the month they would have prorated my rent for that month and given me a refund. Well that didn't sit well with me considering that he spefically told me that all he required was a 48 hour notice in order to move out.
I was furious that I was losing out on the hard earned money I had worked for just so that they can keep it. So I called customer service and informed them of what had happened and they referenced the ccontract which I had signed that I will contact the public storage on the 1st of the month if I plan on terminating service so they can prorate my payment required for that month and that failure to do so is a forefiture the left over amount.
I believe that Public Storage managers need be tested for ethics as well as properly informing their clients of the move in and out procedures.
To me what this manager had done was very shady and unethical and probably occurs to other consumers as well. Also, if they can prorate the rent for my moving in to a storage unit then why can they not prorate me for moving out? Seems like a crime to me.

Unfortuantly, facility managers for Public Storage are pressured into selling locks and insurance by corporate management and failure to do so can result in termination.
Posted by empee on 2010-08-28:
I'm failing to see where the lack of ethics is on the part of the manager. The manager didn't tell you that your move out will be prorated, and judging by customer service's response, they're explaining to you how you aren't paying for time that you aren't using; i.e. moving out on the first.
It's in the contract that you signed that you do not get a refund for moving out on a partial month. The manager was correct and customer service didn't say otherwise. Considering that, I'm wondering what the ethical issue is here.
You asked the manager what you needed to do to move out. You didn't ask, "Do I get a refund if I paid for a month that I didn't use entirely" and the manager didn't respond, "yes". As such, you had your own ideas about what would happen despite signing a contract that says otherwise, and when things didn't pan out to compliment your own form of reality you got mad and started blaming the manager, the company, etc.
Posted by misslovely1 on 2010-10-04:
I agree with empee. There is no ethical issue here, he didn't lie to you purposely to make you pay more. My advice, read your contract and check the definition of ethics.
Posted by Skye on 2010-10-04:
I've used Public Storage two times, and both times, it was fine. I paid 6 months ahead, so that I had one less bill to worry about, and knew that was the amount of time we would probably need while getting settled. As for the lock, we bought the lock, and now we own a pretty nice lock.
Everything is clearly spelled out in your contract. I'm not sure what was shady or unethical about the process.
Posted by Evie on 2013-07-01:
I would never rent a storage unit from these people again after I was told the purchase of their renter's insurance was not optional, when I already had renter's insurance. This was just a ripoff because I too was only paying $l.00 for the first month's rent so I guess they needed to get the extra money from somewhere. I am a senior citizen on social security so I don't have an extra $9.00 for something I neither want or need. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and guess what, they never even answered. Real professionals these JERKS are. I am going to badmouth them anyplace and anytime I can. Maybe some don't think this is a significant amount of money but to me it is a lunch out with a friend that I will be missing. I have been going back to their local website from time to time to find a place to write a review locally and every time I do they've raised their prices!

From an Public Storage employee
Posted by K-ron on 01/17/2010
IRVING, TEXAS -- I've read enough complaints about Public Storage. Now heres is some advice from me. Keep your contact information current-Address and phone number. Pay your bill on time. Set your bill up on auto pay if you can't remember to pay it ontime. Rent is due on the 1st. Not the 7th. If its paid on the 7th and you get a late charge, its 7 days late, not 1 day late. Put your account number on your check. Your name is more common than your realize. We close at 6. If you throw your check thru the payment slot after we close, it will be posted the next day. We don't live in the office.
This is self storage, not Ft Knox. Lock it up.
Be considerate of the manager. If they live on site, that is their private residence. Don't beat on their door at 10 at night wanting them to open the gate for you.
The dollar for the first month is not a lie. You were charged 1 dollar for the rent and a 19 dollar one time administrative fee. This was explained to you.
If you think you have felt frustration, imagine calling 7 pages of deliquent customers to try to get them to pay their bill before late charges acrue or stepping in human waste because people do their business on the ground and leave bottles of urine all over the place for me to clean up.

From a ex-public storage employee. The post was correct BUT what is not mentioned is that PS DOES NOT SEND paper invoices or E-mail reminders to pay your bill. To my knowledge NO company does business in this way. It's totally up to you to remember to pay your bill.
Posted by Items Stolen on 2012-02-29:
You call people because you want to...so that service in UNNECESSARY. The problem is the poor service and if you pay late and they go into your storage,cut your lock, things start to disappear. They are dishonest. I lost my entire DVD collection which included academic ones I use for teaching school...also expensive testing program info. The insurance company will NOT pay for burglary if the client can't proved forced entry, which is a disadvantage for the client and a benefit to dishonest storage employees.
Posted by Items Stole -Continued on 2012-02-29:
Has it ever occurred that sometimes people may not have the money to pay their bill. Who in their right mind would want to pay the late fee?
Posted by PS Employee on 2012-04-03:
I as an employee explain everything before the customer leaves the office. I can not vouche for other employees. We as the employees have a job to do and unfortunately sometimes it is not a very pleasant job. We do not WANT to make calls at all. It would be lovely if everyone paid before their late fee and we never had to make another call. We in fact HATE those calls. In your lease agreement it states when the lien process begins and the fees. This is not a one store policy, it is company policy and we must follow state law regarding a public auction in EVERY single state. We all sympathize with anyone having money problems and sometimes wish we could do something to help you. However we must follow a company policy. I very rarely have customer's who yell at me or are unaware of the rules. Please read your agreements and ask tons of questions. These are your personal possessions and I personally hate to do any auction. Oh and our insurance is NOT required, as part of your lease agreement it is required for you to have insurance. I would never force anyone to buy the insurance if they truly didn't want it. I would however remind them no matter what happens, insurance or not, we are NOT responsible for your items.
Posted by peb31415 on 2013-07-19:
It is not normal human behavior, even for teenagers who might think it's funny, to do their business on the pavement or leave jars of urine around.
This is the behavior of someone who is boiling angry and powerless to do anything about it. They get whatever revenge they can however they can.
If this is a frequent problem, I suggest that it would be wise to consider what might be motivating them. Their actions may be inappropriate, but perhaps their anger is justified.

Public Storage has numerous thefts w/ no reports to other tenants
Posted by Butterfly7 on 01/12/2010
ARLINGTON, TEXAS -- I have had a storage facility with Public Storage since 10/10/2009, I paid my bill on 01/05/2010 and on 01/09/2010 I went to my unit to get a few things and it was completely cleared out. I contacted the police dept on that night, and went back to the facility the next day. Not only was I told by the property manager there it was none of my business who was smoking cigarettes with her on the property after hours, but she made no eye contact with me and she did not even seem a least bit concerned with my loss. This let me know that this was an inside job, per my investigation I have also learned that at least 5 other units besides mine was also robbed. If you have any questions or concerns or you are also a victim. Please respond to this correspondence. Thank you

What? Im confused with the whole smoking cigarettes part. What are you talking about and how did you know who was smoking cigarettes after hours? How do you know this was an inside theft? Do they have cameras?
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-12:
"Not only was I told by the property manager there it was none of my business who was smoking cigarettes with her on the property after hours,"
What does that have to do with theft of your property?
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-12:
"I went to my unit to get a few things and it was completely cleared out. "
Was the lock broken? Did you have a lock?
Posted by Butterfly7 on 2010-01-12:
The smoking cigarettes has to do with a property manager that had individuals on the property with her that were not authorized to be there. Not only that they were in a pick-up truck the same pick up truck that probably stole my stuff from the storage. If seven other units were broken into within one night I say an inside job. Yes I had a lock but it was issued by Public Storage. They stole my childrens clothes and shoes and they stole everything we owned. How do you explain to a 9 and 10 year old that they dont have clothes, shoes, toys or a bed to sleep in because people want to steal and not work hard for what they need, like I had to.
Posted by Butterfly7 on 2010-01-12:
Futhermore if you cant say something positive about my loss then I dont need you to comment in regards to my feelings for Public Storage. They stole everything we owned and it just took me 3 months to find me and my children a home. We now have a place to move into but with no furniture. So if you cant give some advice as to how I can have my issue resolved then please keep your comments to yourself because obviously you do [snip] too like steal peoples stuff. Thank you
Posted by MRM on 2010-01-12:
If you're on a tight budget, may I suggest to get furnitures at thrift stores? If you shop around they do have decent furnitures at thrift stores. And if you dont mind, they also have decent children's clothes and toys.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-12:
I was just asking questions, jeez. All you had to do was answer them, and I thank you. No need to get defensive. I didn't say anything positive or negative, thank you very much... just asked questions.
That's one thing I've learned when renting any sort of storage from someone... to come with my own lock. That way, the only way they'd have access to my things would be to break the lock themselves. I've rented from Public Storage as well, but in Texas. But, I provided my own lock.
Hopefully, the police will be helpful in your endeavor to recover anything from this mess.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-12:
You need to be more precise in your post then. All we know is you start talking about someone smoking. You dont mention where you were when these so called unauthorized people were smoking. Were you spying on them? How do you know about these people? I just want to know ALL the fact, and not just what you want to tell us. If you are going to tell us a story, you need to tell us the WHOLE story and not just half of it, or dont post anything here. How do you know these people were not authorized to be there??? Im sorry to hear about your stuff getting stolen, Im sure it must be hell for you. PLease don't be taking out your anger on us. We are not the ones who stole your stuff.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-12:
No cameras? Was the lock broken? Or just plain missing? What about insurance?
Posted by clutzycook on 2010-01-12:
Do you have renter's insurance? If so, that may cover your loss. What have the police found out?
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-12:
Locks and I don't care what kind or what the manufacture claims merely keeps reasonably honest people honest. There's not a lock made that can stand up to an industrious thief.
If the theft is that rampant then yeah I'd be a bit suspicious that it was an inside job as well.
Good advice clutzcook.

I dont think most people purchase renters insurance on their storage units...at least I dont know anyone who has.....
Posted by Starlord on 2010-01-12:
My wife worked with a lady that owned a storage place with her husband, and one of the first things I observed was that if you get a storage space, provide your own lock, and not a cheap one, either. If you are issued a lock, I would be most suspicious, because that says to me that they may have a master key for the locks they issue. The best locks, in my opinion as a security expert are the round high security locks. However, as has been mentioned, all a lock does is keep an honest person honest. I agree though, this sounds like an inside job.
Posted by clutzycook on 2010-01-12:
That's true Tennboy, but if she had renter's insurance on the stuff in the previous place she was renting, I wonder if it would carry over to the stuff once it was in the storage locker. Judging by her post, I'm assuming that her prior place was a rental. It was just a thought. I'm still wondering what the police have to say...
Posted by Butterfly7 on 2010-01-13:
Thank you all for your helpful advice. I did purchase the lock from the actual company and the insurance I purchased at the time of signing the contract only covers 2500.00, after the incident the thought occured to me that maybe I should have purchased renters insurance. The lock was not broken but I am left handed. When I went to grab a few items the lock was placed back on facing to the right, my youngest son kept asking for his bike I told him we would be in our house next week so we would get the bike then. As soon as I opened the unit before I even turned the light on my boy said mom my bike isnt here, we placed the bike in the front and sure enough all of our things were gone. To the reply in me taking my anger out on anyone I'm not angry at anyone on this site Im angry at the people who stole my things, they took everything that we had. Not only that they have access to all of my personal info, birth certificates for me and my children, receipts of purchases, bank info valid and invalid, its just the inconvenience more than anything and then for someone to steal my childrens things thats more heartwrenching than anything, but as I stated previously I thank anyone and everyone for their helpful advice, and I appreciate all of your concerns for my loss. Please once again if you have also been a victim because as I stated previously I wasnt the only victim on that day, please respond to this correspondence so that we can work together in preventing this from happending to anyone else and their families. Thank you.

does this place allow "after hours access"?
just wondering. the storage unit i use has set office hours, but then has 247 access to customers - they have to use an indiviual gate code to get into the facility.

Another place you can get decent, and sometimes almost new furniture is www.freecycle.org in your area. If you have access to a pc then this would be the way to go. If its posted in Freecycle....the item must be FREE, also www.craigslist.org has listings for free items, I have picked up several nice items this way for little or no cost.
I know its hard starting over again, and we had to do just that when we left Arizona with our truck, a small trailer and personal items. We moved no furniture, but within a month had a fully furnished home here in Washington and the cost was very minimal.
We bought a like new couch at Goodwill for under $30, table lamps for $15 - $20...dressers I got through craigslist for $15 - $35. Not everyone gets rid of just junk on these sites, in our case, we got stuff that was even better than what we had in Arizona for a fraction of the cost of moving the stuff up here!
Good luck, and do check craigslist for a replacement bike for your son.

Butterfly, you left papers with personal information in your storage unit?
Posted by CrystalSword on 2010-01-14:
clutzy, many times when we bought storage units at auction we would find personal info, family pictures and the like. I would box these and give them to the manager/owner of the storage company, to go back to the person who had the unit....there were a couple times that the person who had the unit had passed away so we shredded everything. The couple of times we have had to rent a storage unit, I kept our personal papers as condensed as possible and carried them with us...or, in the situation we are in now, living with a roommate, I sent some stuff over to my son's where I knew it would be safe. I would never leave sensitive info in a storage unit, you just never know who might end up with access to it.
Posted by Butterfly7 on 2010-01-14:
Yes I left personal papers and copies of my birth certificate and both of my boys, Im really organized so I boxed everything up in plastic storage bins but I wrote with a Sharpee marker what boxes had what in them but yea I did. This is a hard lesson learned I really thought my stuff would be safe in storage and to be honest until this happened to me I never heard of anyone's things being stolen. I knew that if the bill wasnt paid your personal items could be auctioned off but I never thought stolen. I paid the bill on the 5th of Jan and my stuff was gone by the 9th of Jan, but that is absolutely correct never leave anything of real value like jewelry or personal info in your storage unit. At least if my jewelry wasnt stolen I could pawn a few items and get furniture. But you know what after this Earthquake in Haiti Im very thankful that at least Im still here, alot of people lost everything and though I feel like I did also at least I have a home to move into this weekend and CrystalSword thanks for the advice Im going to check that site out today so I can go ahead and refurnish my home. Just please whoever you are if you are going to be renting storage space please dont be naive and think that it cant happen to you or that the facility you are renting from employs honest individuals. Thank you all once again. Butterfly7

They didn't have any kind of security video? I thought most of the storage places did nowadays.

Have you filed a report with the police? That'd be a great place to start if you haven't.
Posted by empee on 2010-08-28:
First of all, many of these managers live on site. They are human beings and sometimes have a life too. Being on the property with another person after hours doesn't indicate anything more criminal than you being in your back yard at 10pm. Neither does smoking cigarettes. If your neighbor's house catches on fire does that mean you're guilty of arson?
Second; you've no evidence that this is an inside job. You suspect that it's an inside job because A. Someone was on the property and B. your stuff is gone so C. the person on the property did it. This is a logical fallacy known as the "slippery slope". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slippery_slope
Third; professional thieves and burglars target storage facilities. They often hit multiple units. Very few go to a storage facility and hit one unit unless they know what's in there and it's something they want. I know of one PS facility where over 70 units were hit overnight with a live on site manager present at the property. The same live on site manager that called the police, worked with them, and assisted them in access so they could get prints on everything they could (which were not theirs by the way).
Last but not least, PS is not going to tell other tenants about every issue that happens on the property, just as the bank you do business with doesn't tell you if one of their branches got robbed, just as your mechanic isn't laying out for you if any cars have been taken off his property, just as your apartment complex doesn't lay out how many and which apartments have ever been burglarized there when you sign a lease.
"How do you explain to a 9 and 10 year old that they dont have clothes, shoes, toys or a bed to sleep in because people want to steal and not work hard for what they need"
Really? Do your children live in your storage unit? If you have their bed and clothes in a unit and it was stolen how are they doing without unless they're getting dressed in the unit or sleeping on the bed that's in there?
"Futhermore if you cant say something positive about my loss then I dont need you to comment in regards to my feelings for Public Storage. "
So you only want input that reinforces your point? You're not interested in truth or rationality at all, just in what you want to hear? You can feel however you want about Public Storage, but if you're expecting people to be sympathetic and understanding, you need to present a little better argument than that which you have. So much of what you said here doesn't make any sense.

Wonderful Customer Service
Posted by Nana50184 on 03/26/2014
The first time I stopped by to check the place, I knew that this was where I wanted to leave my possessions. Kristie was a very knowledgeable person, and offered to show us the place without being pushy.
she made us feel comfortable, we moved from Las Vegas NV, and we immediately felt safe and knew that our possessions would be well taken care of. The place is clean, and has easy access.

Great experience!!
Posted by Karenmarcotte on 03/08/2014
16217 N DALE MABRY HWY, TAMPA, FL 33618, FLORIDA -- Moving from North Carolina to the Tampa area, my husband and I had to find storage for all of our 3 bedroom homes belongings. Some needed climate control and some did not and some needed storage for just a week or so, until our apartment was ready for move in. The on site manager, Morgan, provided all of that for us, working with us to save as much money as possible and set us up with the exact storage needed. The location is also very nice and clean, with plenty of parking space and easy access in and out of gates. Had no problem maneuvering our 26 foot truck.

Outrageous Rate Increases After 6 Months
Posted by Bdunphy01 on 02/04/2014
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA -- This is the second time I've rented from Public Storage and I should have learned my lesson the first time. They increased my rent more than 12% the first time and I stupidly paid it without complaint. I searched for another storage place but Public Storage had slightly better rates (but not if they are increased after 6 months). And moved. So here I am again. Six months later I am being told that my rates have increased by 14%!!!!!

Rate Increase
Posted by Toddc10 on 01/13/2014
CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA -- Every single year they hit me with a rate increase. Been with them for three years- pay on time each month but yet they think they have you because you will not move out until you are ready. Hit me with almost a 10% increase this year. That's nuts.
I called customer service and got a lady that was very rude and didn't care one way or the other if I stayed. Guess business is good and they don't care if they lose a good customer as long as they can jack up the rent. Never has the rent went down.?
I checked and there are other storage companies in the area with a lot less rental charges.
I will tell you the place is clean but if you plan to stay over a year I would 110% look at another company - this one just doesn't care about keeping the customer happy.

Great Service after break-ins PLUS manager Monte busted BOTH guys
Posted by Whyn_ot on 01/08/2014
PORTLAND, OREGON -- At location # 24103 my unit was broken into 2x after we got a new manager. He was quick to inform, very sympathetic and apologetic, had a good handle on making the next attempt harder, at PS' expense, and because of being really vigilant after hours he was able to get police there before the 1st guy finished his 2nd attempt, and again, in time to nail the 2nd guy red-handed. Not only that, but he's always cheerful, polite and professional.

Now that Obamacare appears to be here to stay, it's safe to start to making plans based on the changes the Affordable Care Act will have on our personal finances.
For instance, seniors who depend on Medicare Part D to help pay for prescription drugs may have noticed that Medicare now pays a slightly bigger share of annual outlays at the pharmacy.
That's not just good news for Americans over 65: Those savings are getting big enough to affect how much the rest of us need to save for retirement, according to a new study.
The savings come from the health-care reform bill's success in closing Medicare Part D's "doughnut hole"—the gap between basic and "catastrophic" prescription drug coverage that leaves some beneficiaries paying full price for their drugs for several months of the year.
The ACA has so far reduced the doughnut hole by about 25 percent. In the first six months of 2012, the Department of Health and Human Services has reported, price concessions from drug companies stipulated in the law have saved Medicare recipients an average of $629, and about $647 million overall. By 2020, the doughnut hole is expected to be closed completely.
"Those savings will continue to grow as the doughnut hole is fully closed," Jon Blum, director of the Center for Medicare, told USA Today earlier this year. (Read More: More Americans Working Until Medicare Kicks In)
For the moment, those savings are fairly modest, but enough for the researchers at the Employee Retirement Benefits Institute to subtitle their report on the implications of closing the doughnut hole "Rare Good News."
Most couples retiring now, the report said, will need to set aside 1 percent to 2 percent less for various Medicare and Medigap premiums and out-of-pocket drug expenses than the same couple would have last year, or about $163,000 versus $166,000, if they want a 50 percent chance of covering themselves through retirement.
The more drugs you use, the more you can plan on saving: A couple in the 90th percentile for drug spending can now anticipate needing 4 percent to 5 percent less than they would have to have on hand last year—or about $234,000 to have a 50-50 shot at their covering drug expenses. (Read More: When - and How - to Take Social Security)
Such incremental savings may be scant relief for those who are behind on their retirement savings—and that's most Americans, according to the Federal Reserve. Obamacare's savings could also be reduced at any time, if the pharmaceutical companies begin to pass along to consumers the cost of lowering their prices.
But for now it looks like the savings will snowball and the sticker shock of what it takes to retire comfortably will be softened as the doughnut hole closes over the next eight years.

Experiments Toward an Erasable Compact Disc Digital Audio System
Recording experiments of erasable information in magneto-optical amorphous layers on pregrooved disks are described. The recording and reading of information is done on a recorder provided with an AIGaAs laser and equipped for polarization-sensitive readout of the Kerr effect. The signal-to-noise ratio and the bit error rate of the recorded information have proven to be sufficient for half an hour of digital music according to the Compact Disc digital audio standard on a 120-mm-diameter disk (equivalent to 400 00 bit/mm(2). With only slight modification the recorder can be used to read out normal Compact Disc records.

it's one of our last nights of fashion week & we order weiner schnitzels the size of our heads at a swanky restaurant called borchardts. we head to our friend oli's gallery where he has a pile of naked people writhing on the floor while he shoots photos of them & we watch through the window like window shoppers. A girl who resembles beth ditto starts to serenade us and mowgli joins in when he'd had enough vodka & red bulls. the evening starts exciting & we run in to a bunch of friends from los angeles at a vice party. it's fourth of july but none of us remember to say anything & only really remember when we spot some dull sparklers. the vice party fades fast & we go to our friend's bar that's set under the trees, next to the river & below the stars. it feels as comfortable as our living room & we enjoy it that way, swinging on the giant sofa, playing in underwater projections, throwing rocks into the river, dancing & flailing to the beats. we end up at king size, sitting in the window seat singing lana del rey & shooting group photos outside near the railway in the sunrise. wonka makes us spaghetti for our last meal and we finally fall asleep until evening.
being fashion week, we finally make it to a fashion show. it is set up in a warehouse and the models have beards and it's all very artsy and cool. after what feels like hundreds of beers, a grand group of us set off to where wonka and jimi blue are djing in the basement of a massive club. all of us are so hot and so sweaty but so happy & having way too much fun. there's a hidden bottle of vodka behind the dj booth and we dip down to make drinks. at one point, i pull my hand out to find bright red blood dripping down my arm from a broken glass in the ice bucket, mowgli and i go to the bathroom to play doctor with papertowels and bathroom tissue. the rest of the night we spend perched on a speaker behind the brothers watching everyone dance and punch and sweat and flail. when the sun is up again we finally leave & we either go to jimi blue's for more debauchery or we make it home…..
eat dark red cherries & drink champagne with tangerines floating in our glasses and leave for a rooftop location. but once we get up there it starts to storm. watch the lighting show before big fat drops fall on us and retire to the bar to dry off and figure our next move. have dinner at an asian inspired restaurant called dudu on the patio where the moisture in the air and the many green plants make for a tropical scene. grow impatient from sitting and anxious to dance, go to an interview magazine party that is stiff but open bar so we stay until we can hardly stand & that's when we decide to go to the kit kat club, an infamous place every berliner has a wild story about. the colors & sounds are overwhelming and we laugh and talk in little circles. wonka's little brother, jimi blue, has a bottle of jagermeister that everyone enjoys tipping straight to their lips. walking zombies, we go back to jimi blue's house & stay up listening to music too loud and sunbathing on his balcony. sometime after 10am, a group of young girls bring all of us sandwiches & croissants and we enjoy them on the cab ride home.
next day because it's raining, try to make it to a beer garden, but really go to our friend's house to get high and watch youtube videos. go to the famous burgermeister, eat chilli burgers & drink beers on crates outside near the street. the night is gleaming and we're always antsy to get started. find a party called hypergay & although there are hardly any gay people, there is really good music, penis shaped squirt guns filled with vodka, tons of dancing & lots of confetti which wonka keeps in his pocket to throw in the air as he pleases. in the bathroom there is glitter by the mirrors which everyone could apply & i did on my face and arms. our friend entertains us by talking to random people and climbing the faux trees decorating the bar. we get home in the morning, wonka makes us frozen pizzas and we pass out as the woman in the flat above us begins her daily violin lesson.
land just in time for the sun to start setting & parties to start. straight to some kind of culture magazine shindig stuffed on three floors of good looking & well dressed people. find our good friend wonka in the bathroom, which he'd made into a mini vip party. candle holder vodka shots & boys with their pants rolled up dipping their feet in the bathtub. after the beer & cups are gone we jump in to a big painted van & go to an outdoor/indoor bar, rock out to a band with a cool name & a beautiful mosh circle. then; the first time at a bar open till the wee hours, called kingsize. spend too much time in the bathroom taking photos & talking and laughing loud because the club is so full you can lift your feet and stay standing. end up starting a new party in the basement under the bar drinking tequila shots from the bottles and sitting on the crates and freezers. art was created, then we went home.

Scott Wedgewood is one of a few young goalies hoping for a chance to succeed Brodeur in New Jersey.
When a player involved in 'greatest of all-time' conversation occupies the No. 1 goaltending spot, it's usually bad news for those below him on the organizational depth chart. Over the past three seasons, New Jersey Devils goaltenders outside the 79-year-old tandem of Martin Brodeur and Johan Hedberg have combined for just four NHL games played.
The mind is willing for Brodeur who insists he will be back next season to play the final year of his contract. His 40-year-old body however, may not be so open to a 20th year of NHL duty. Although he is downplaying the injury, Brodeurs nagging back could bring an end to the four-time Vezina winner's career. Brodeur being placed on the IR provides a rare glimpse into the goaltending future of New Jersey where for the past 19 years, Brodeur has played an average of 66 games a season. The Devils may be entering the post-Brodeur era earlier than expected and for the first time, in a long time, Devils goaltending prospects begin to trickle in.
Whether the Devil's brass fill the Brodeur void through free agency this summer, a trade, or from within, a new starting goaltender for the Devils may come as early as next season.
The current goalie market is slim-pickings and the UFA goalies hitting the market July 5th. are a slew of aging veterans approaching their forties. The time has come for the Devil's to pump some young blood into the goalie rotation, even if it is to late. If they choose to build within, these three prospects could be starting in goal for the Devils in the next two to three years, and should be on the radar for poolies looking for a long-term investment.
3.) Jeff Frazee - New Jersey Devils (NHL)
Round 2, 38th Overall 2005 Entry Draft
Once touted as the heir to the Brodeur throne, the 25-year-old Minnesota native has struggled since knee surgery in 2011. His numbers have not been impressive, 72-81-15 in five American League seasons. Still young however, Frazee still has time to prove he is a NHL capable goaltender before being cast into minor-league obscurity. He is showing signs of improvement, maintaining a career high 2.33 GAA in 21 games this season with Albany, earning him a call up to The Show to backup Jonas Hedberg.
Frazee made his NHL debut Mar. 9, replacing Hedberg in the third period against the Hurricanes, making three saves on three shots. With no time frame for Brodeur's return, Frazee may get his first NHL start sooner than expected. Since taking over for Brodeur Feb. 23, Hedberg is a abysmal 2-6-1, 3.33 GAA in nine games, opening the door for Frazee's first NHL start. If he can rise to the occasion, the Devils will likely resign him when his contract expires this summer, and will have the opportunity to compete for a regular NHL gig.
2.) Keith Kinkaid - Albany Devils (AHL)
The second Devil's goaltender to make his NHL debut this season, Kinkaid allowed one goal on 13 shots Mar. 5, replacing Hedberg in the second period against Tampa Bay.
Like Frazee, 23-year-old Kinkaid has time on his side, posting a winning record of 17-12-5 with two shutouts for Albany this season. In addition to an age advantage over Frazee, the younger Kinkaid has the upper hand in terms of skill and size (6-3, 190 pounds), but lacks pro experience. Kinkaid has adjusted well making the transition from the college level to pro. Possessing great athleticism, Kinkaid has starter potential, but faces the long road to get there. If Brodeur retires early Kinkaid will likely battle Frazee for a backup job next season, and eventually overtake him in the depth chart.
1.) Scott Wedgewood - Albany Devils (AHL)
Round 3, 84th Overall 2010 NHL Entry Draft
The youngest fish in the Devils goalie tank is also the most exciting. Noted by scouts for his focus and athleticism, 18-year-old Scott Wedgewood made his pro-debut this season in the East Coast League after an impressive showing of 28-10-3 and three shutouts in the OHL last season, leading the Plymouth Whalers to a division title.
Wedgewood is climbing the ranks faster than expected. Frazee got the call up to the big club thanks to his pro experience, but you can bet Wedgewood will be there once he puts in his time in the minors. Frazee's call-up landed Wedgewood a promotion from Trenton to the AHL where he won his first two starts and posted a 1.44 GAA. While Kinkaid and Frazee duke it out next season, Wedgewood will have the opportunity to outplay them in the AHL and eventually emerge as the Devils undisputed goaltender of the future. Poolies need look at Wedgewood as a long-term piece, still early in development, but the best bet to land a full-time job with the Devils in the next two to three years.
Andrew is going to report on prospects for DobberHockey each Saturday. Welcome to the team, Andrew!

They might go for a younger guy and hope for the best goalie in the nhl to comeback and show the rope to him let's say chet pickard from nashville pekka is there for a few years and they will get a good return , of course this is pure speculation
Rollie1967 said:
Dubnyk is an ok starter, but hasnt got the upside that the young Edm. stars have. He might get them into the playoffs-but thats it. If Edm can acquire a future star goalie (Bernier? Schneider?) and add some defense (either thru trading Whitney, or if one of their many prospects develops ahead of plan) they could take a big jump in the standings soon. Having Dubnyk as a starter isnt going to get them a Stanley Cup,if youre going to tank 3+ years, and get all those high draft picks, you dont neglect the most important position in the game.

I think Devils will trade for a goalie (Neuvirth or Bernier are good possibilities), because when Wedgewood is your future goalie, you're in some serious troubles. Even in OHL he was average at most.

Also Minny has a couple in Hackett or Kuemper.
And don't forget about Ben Bishop in Ottawa.
But I'd like to see a move sooner rather than later. Philly may need a goalie, as does Edmonton.

The Flight of the Intellectuals: The Controversy Over Islam and the Pressby Paul Berman
Twenty years ago, Ayatollah Khomeini called for the assassination of Salman Rushdie--and writers around the world instinctively rallied to Rushdie's defense. Today, according to writer Paul Berman, "Rushdie has metastasized into an entire social class"--an ever-growing group of sharp-tongued critics of Islamist extremism, especially critics from Muslim backgrounds, who survive only because of pseudonyms and police protection. And yet, instead of being applauded, the Rushdies of today (people like Ayan Hirsi Ali and Ibn Warraq) often find themselves dismissed as "strident" or as no better than fundamentalist themselves, and contrasted unfavorably with representatives of the Islamist movement who falsely claim to be "moderates."How did this happen? In THE FLIGHT OF THE INTELLECTUALS, Berman--"one of America's leading public intellectuals" (Foreign Affairs)--conducts a searing examination into the intellectual atmosphere of the moment and shows how some of the West's best thinkers and journalists have fumbled badly in their efforts to grapple with Islamist ideas and violence. Berman's investigation of the history and nature of the Islamist movement includes some surprising revelations. In examining Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, he shows the rise of an immense and often violent worldview, elements of which survives today in the brigades of al-Qaeda and Hamas. Berman also unearths the shocking story of al-Banna's associate, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, who collaborated personally with Adolf Hitler to incite Arab support of the Nazis' North African campaign. Echoes of the Grand Mufti's Nazified Islam can be heard among the followers of al-Banna even today.In a gripping and stylish narrative Berman also shows the legacy of these political traditions, most importantly by focusing on a single philosopher, who happens to be Hassan al-Banna's grandson, Oxford professor Tariq Ramadan--a figure widely celebrated in the West as a "moderate" despite his troubling ties to the Islamist movement. Looking closely into what Ramadan has actually written and said, Berman contrasts the reality of Ramadan with his image in the press.In doing so, THE FLIGHT OF THE INTELLECTUALS sheds light on a number of modern issues--on the massively reinvigorated anti-Semitism of our own time, on a newly fashionable turn against women's rights, and on the difficulties we have in discussing terrorism--and presents a stunning commentary about the modern media's peculiar inability to detect and analyze some of the most dangerous ideas in contemporary society.

Flights of Fancy, Leaps of Faith: Children's Myths in Contemporary Americaby Cindy Dell Clark
Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy-is there still a place for these legendary creatures in today's skeptical age? Is it "right" for children to believe in them? By encouraging these myths, are parents lying to children? Moreover, do these figures undermine religious faith and encourage rampant materialism in children? In Flights of Fancy, Leaps of Faith, Cindy Dell Clark went right to the believers-American children-to explore how children themselves give meaning to Santa, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy. Through interviews and observation conducted in real-life settings from homes to shopping malls during the holidays, she asks whether believing in these figures is good or bad for children. Using their insights, she offers fresh, new interpretations about tooth loss as a rite of passage, about Christmas (including the role of the family and the Christmas tree), and about Easter customs (including the Easter egg hunt) in contemporary America. Clark challenges the notion that the figures are merely "imaginary." She demonstrates how children actively shape these traditions through their own creativity and beliefs. And because they require the child's faith in order to be experienced, they play an important and singular role in a child's psychological development. Through the mysteries and myths of Christmas and Easter, families balance the values of receiving and giving, of growth and sacrifice. Each aspect of the Santa myth, from his slide down a chimney to his big red suit, plays a part in a child's imagination. Through their offerings of milk and cookies and their letter writing, children bring their relationship to Santa into developing attitudes toward giving and receiving gifts. The Easter Bunny story, with its ritual egg hunt and baskets of brightly colored candy, is explored in terms of life and its possibility of growth. In these examples, Clark shows how children play an active role in constructing family rituals and cultural reality, since their willingness to make the stories their own helps to renew the traditions. This engaging look at our central symbols will hold great interest for parents, as well as for teachers, psychologists, and other professionals concerned with childhood culture. Complete with children's vivid testimonies and colorful illustrations, it is a revealing journey into a child's mind and world.

"The colors are earthy and compliment eachother very well- it comes out just as good as the online photo Capable of deciphering address (some print too small not this one) Came quick, and am very overall happy Love the wood back ground"
"Picked up these cute address labels to send to our Moving Cards. Super cute and simple! Great Quality, they are nive and thick, no tearing these labels! Love them!"
"I love the look of these labels! I kept the same font as provided in the example and everything is perfectly legible. The small dot detail along the rectangle border is a lovely accent and the mint color is so fresh and modern."
"I ordered these to use on my Christmas cards What a great idea. Using these "We've Moved" labels let my cards stay Christmasy. While I like this design, I wish they would have had a few more choices--especially one more holiday themed."
"I absolute love these. I wasn't sure how good the quality would be, but its great. The black background is a deep color and the labels have a good thickness to them. I would definitely buy this again. The only negative I had in the experience is that my order got delivered to the wrong place, but Customer Service responded very quickly to my problem."

this needs to happen. of the 120+ FBS teams, a large portion of them do not play what can be considered "major-college football", even though they are in the highest division. the BCS made this abundantly clear to any and all knowledgeable and objective fans. it also made a distinction b/w what should already be different classifications. this will create some undeserving victims(boise state and/or others). however, the end result will be more high quality games b/w evenly matched opponents. this will also allow the lesser teams a more realistic chance to compete for a championship, that otherwise would be an impossibility.
For a quarter of a century, sports fans and media members have chattered about colleges and universities breaking away from the NCAA to form a new organization with a new governing body. But since this site launched in May 2008 we've said there will not be a full-scale secession.
The reason? There is no way 65-80 rich schools with different interests from different parts of the country could agree upon a new rule book, a new org chart, or very much of anything else.
Consider the Confederate States of America. Once the Southern states broke away, their governments fought hard to avoid giving CSA president Jefferson Davis any real centralized power. After all, it was the centralized power of the federal government that had led them to secede. But without strong centralized power in the Confederacy, you had the governor of North Carolina hoarding uniforms from needy troops of other states. You had the governor of Georgia threatening to secede again, this time from the CSA. It was an experiment doomed to fail. As Davis himself said, "If the Confederacy fails, there should be written on its tombstone: Died of a Theory."
Well, theoretically, a new body to replace the NCAA sounds well in good. But it couldn't be created and even if it could, it would wind up having many of the same problems of college sports' current governing body.
In fact, a confederacy of conferences is more likely than a brand new "NCAA II." Imagine five or six separate conferences, all with their own rule books, agreeing on occasion to meet in bowl games. Even something that nonsensical is more likely to occur than everyone agreeing on a grand new sporting government.
Today, Dennis Dodd of CBSSports.com tackles the recent shootdown of the NCAA's proposed changes to its rule book. You know, the much-discussed alterations that would have erased entire pages of recruiting regulations from the NCAA's current tome of laws.
Pay attention to Dodd's words:
"Twenty-five pages. They couldn't even agree on that.
That's what would have been cut out of the 426-page NCAA Manual if everything proposed by the Rules Working Group for football had gotten through last week. Twenty-five pages or 5.8 percent. And they couldn't even agree on that.
They can't agree on much of anything these days as the NCAA attempts to rewire itself. Rewiring is more commonly called reform and it has been going on forever. It is needed because that manual is 426 pages. We can thank every coach/booster/player who ever though of a new and devious way to cheat for the book's thickness."
Now, the rest of Dodd's piece is interesting, but for our purposes you've seen enough. If NCAA leadership, presidents and athletic directors can't get on the same page regarding a few edits to the existing rule book, what makes anyone think that these same presidents and athletic directors could find enough middle ground to form a whole new organization from scratch?
Look, the next time you read something about schools breaking away from the NCAA, just roll your eyes. It is not going to happen.
What is going to happen — and what's already happening — is the richest football-playing schools will break away from the poorest football-playing schools and carve out a new fifth division at the top of the NCAA food chain. That snow ball is already rolling downhill and picking up momentum as it goes.
A new super-division, not a new NCAA.
On that everyone should be able to agree.
