4 Tips for Fixing Up Your New Home (That's Clearly Haunted)
#2. Leaks and Infestations
Outside of natural disasters, the most destructive force on any house is time. Your new home has likely been standing for quite awhile so there is a good chance it has a few leaks. Depending on the damage, these little annoyance can take a day or up to eight weeks to fix. Inspect the ceilings for discolorations and swells. A common misconception in old houses is that the thick, black water sometimes cascading down the walls is a leak. It's not. That is your house reminding you that misery comes at last to the healthy man and the end of life is sadness. Collect this water as well as you can with buckets and mop up the rest to avoid wood-rot. If you encounter an actual leak, you will need to open that section of roof by prying away the shingles and determine if the wood is warped or damaged underneath. If it is, you will need to replace entirely new beams to maintain the structural stability of your nightmare.
As you inspect the roof for wood rot, keep an eye out for animal infestations. You may encounter seething clouds of insects and vermin, so many that they appear to move in unison, creating a filthy portal in the center of their swarm to another dimension. You may, in fact, start to feel them crawling across your mind as well, scraping and clawing at the inside of your skull. Enjoy it. You understand now that at the heart of all horror lives pleasure. The blood of fear has stained your fingernails and the dirt of your basement. In its absence comes power. Limitless power. The insects, the spiders, the rats -- they fear and love you now, they wait for your commands, eager to be your instruments of suffering. Except termites. Termites are bad for any home and you will have to call fumigation experts. That's one renovation task you won't be able to do alone!
Termites ruin everything.
Unfortunately there still isn't a good way to protect your house against an infestation of termites. They can be a costly pest but your best bet is to recognize the warning signs early and take care of them before they spread. Tiny holes in the walls, bits of sawdust on surfaces are all indications that termites have set up residence. This can be frustrating, particularly if your house sees repeated infestations. Infuriating even. No one knows how these bugs keep finding their way inside the house.
Unless, of course, someone brought them in. Intentionally.
Your significant other, your children. They hate this place, they are always saying so. They keep telling you they don't like the sounds of children's screaming in the attic or the way their faces melt in mirrors. They don't understand. They don't appreciate how much work you've poured into this house already. They don't acknowledge what you've been through. They are willful and content in their ignorance. You know what else? They are laughing at you behind your back. They think you are weak. Show them. Show them you are strong. Make them understand.
#1. General Maintenance
This is your house now, and you have to protect it as you would your own life. It is a part of you now and you are a part of it, such is the nature of your relationship. Big storms, freezing temperatures, radon gas are all threats that you should take seriously. Solving those problems early will help your home last hundreds of years, long after your family is gone. But not you. You are the caretaker after all. You are the caretaker. You have always been the caretaker here. You have always been the caretaker. You have always been the caretaker. You have always been the caretaker.

You can book for up to 20 people at a single establishment and for a maximum of 31 nights. Close
- 3.Could I get a better price if I contacted the establishment directly? ▼
No. Accommodation prices can vary according to occupancy, season and demand. We make a price parity agreement with each establishment, which means that we show exactly the same prices as other reservation websites and the establishment itself. We often negotiate special, lower online rates for our websites. And, if you find a cheaper deal for the same room on the same dates, we will refund the difference (for more information, check our Best Price Guarantee on the Terms & Conditions page). Close
- 4.What exactly will I pay online now? ▼
When you make a reservation, you will be required to pay between 10 and 25 per cent of the total cost (this does not correspond to the cost of the first night) in order to secure the booking. This online payment is made in euros, and will be clearly shown before your credit card is charged. Close
- 5.Is the payment system secure? ▼
Yes. The information you provide during the payment process is VeriSign encrypted and is not supplied to any other entity. THE SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE TO US. All transactions occur in a secure site area using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software from VeriSign. SSL encrypts the information you input on the site ensuring that no third parties can intercept, read, or use the data. Close

If you pay the Cancellation Fee Protection, we will refund the amount you paid online in the event that you need to cancel your reservation within the time limit specified during the reservation process and also on the confirmation email. If you choose not to purchase the Cancellation Fee Protection during the reservation process, the online payment will be credited to your budgetplaces account. Cancellation after the time limit or no-shows will still incur the fees listed by the establishment. The amount you initially paid online will not be refunded and you will not benefit from the discount. Cancellation Fee Protection is not refundable and does not cover credit you used towards the reservation. Close
- 9.What is the difference between flexible cancellation and non-refundable rates? ▼
Flexible cancellation rates allow clients to amend and/or cancel reservations (subject to the establishment's own terms and conditions). The non-refundable rate is the cheapest option, but reservations cannot be amended or cancelled. The total amount is payable upon reservation, and no refunds will be given. Close
- 10.How can I change my reservation? ▼
You can amend your reservation either by sending a message with your reservation number to +34 607605910 using our WhatsApp service (available Monday to Friday from 9am to 6pm, Spain time), or by sending an email to email@example.com using the same email address that you provided when you made the reservation. This must be done within the time limit specified in the establishment's cancellation policy. Please note that all reservation changes are subject to availability. If the amount to be paid online for the modified reservation is less than the original online payment, the difference will be refunded as credit to use towards future reservations on our website. If you have paid for the Cancellation Fee Protection (see Question 8, above), this difference will be refunded to your credit card. Should the amount to be paid online for the modified reservation be more than the original online payment, you will be charged the difference.
Please note that once the cancellation period is over, or if you have made a non-refundable reservation, you cannot change your reservation. Close

- 13.What is 'card pre-authorisation'? ▼
In order to ensure that the card used to make a reservation is valid, some establishments may carry out a pre-authorisation (i.e. a temporary block of a certain amount on a credit card which is then automatically unblocked by the bank) in order to secure the reservation. Please make sure the credit card you used to make your reservation is valid and has sufficient funds before your arrival. If there is an error during the pre-authorisation process, the hotel may cancel the reservation. Should the hotel cancel the booking, please note that the cancellation policy of your reservation will apply. Close
- 14.Why has the establishment charged me before arrival? ▼
The payment conditions are always shown during the reservation process and in your reservation confirmation email.

- 15.What happens if I cancel the PayPal billing agreement? ▼
If you cancel the Paypal billing agreement, we will be obliged to cancel your reservation as there will be no guarantee (for either the hotel or nice30.com) in the event of a late cancellation or a no-show. Should the reservation be cancelled, please note that the cancellation policy of your reservation will apply. Close
- 16.How can I get an invoice? ▼

Ramsey is proof that good people are all around us
May 10, 2013
Sometimes we forget how many good people there are in the world. Then we read about someone like Charles Ramsey....
Major, I accuse you of hate because you constantly attack the same groups of people continously. Anyone that reads these forum will see that you are all about "Euro American Republicans." You can't stand to see anyone teaching or practicing another culture. You have a disdain toward minorities that you imply with subliminal wordsmithing. I know you don't hate me. I fit the bill of what you love. I'm a white, fiscal-conservative. But because I grew up in the inner city, I have a different viewpoint. I was raised amongst minorities so I don't believe in stereotypes. I think diversity is a great thing, and I also think that you would be happier if you were more open-minded.

I agree that the press has played his role up a bit, but I disagree with the rest of your comments. His comment about the "Pretty white girl running into a black man's arms" represents his experiences from his environment. No one, attacked him for his comments because he doesn't hold any position where his beliefs matter and to those with knowledge that area, that statement is actually true. The other gentleman was first to the scene but because of his language barrier(we don't have an official language in the USA), he was unable to fully assist the women, that's where Mr. Ramsey came in. He did a good deed not knowing that he would receive all of this attention, when he could have just as easily continued to eat his McDonald's. Let's just be happy for everyone involved. This story will not make the real issues go away.

Conservatives believe in fiscal conservatism, and the elimination of government run welfare programs in favor of private sector nonprofits and encouraging personal responsibility. Not racism, do not let the views of "some" represent the views of "all." I regard Charles Ramsey as a hero. This is not the movies, if you look into history, everyone regarded as a hero has something negative in their past. Some may have never got caught. But everyone has done something they're not proud of. Let's not drag someone's name through the mud when they do something good. By doing so, you give people another reason to not get involved when someone (maybe YOU next time)is in need.

This man didn't have to get involved over @ his neighbors house. He chose to do the right thing & get involved. Mr. Cordero doesn't speak english nor does he understand english. It was said that he became confused, didn't know what to do & that is when Mr. Ramsey took over. Mr. Ramsey would be considered a hero to me especially if my daughter had been held in that house. He doesn't want anything for what he has done & that doesn't happen everyday.

Does "he" mean Angel Cordero? He claims that he is the one who kicked out part of the door and allowed them to escape.
All of this is again heroic actions, perhaps on the part of these two men.
That does not make them heroes--particularly when Mr. Ramsey (whom the editorial alone praises) has been guilty multiple times of abusing his own family.
Hopefully, he has changed as he claims. But, let's just leave it as a "heroic act" and leave the personal praise for a time of longer-term reflection.

"All Republicans, conservatives and Tea Partiers can do is to call people names."
Guilty as charged ESPECIALLY in regard to moronic idiots like you. Maybe you should take a lesson from the many liberal Democrats who comment here who present intelligent and well reasoned positions on subjects. Sorry, but you are not one of them. It's obvious you mental capabilities do not allow for any meaningful coherent dialog from you.

Is this the same fellow who has a record with several report of beating his domestic partners or wife?
Our society needs to make a pact to stop calling people "heroes." Instead stick to realizing that a particular action can be heroic, but that doesn't mean that the person overall has the character of a hero.
In this particular instance, I don't believe it is even "heroic" to alert the authorities when you see someone in trouble.

While I don't think the Wild are the worst team by any means, their success always seemed more like over-performing than something that could realistically be sustained the whole season. When they were at the top for a brief bit (first 1/3 MAYBE, not first 1/2), most of us saw a team that it would take little to bring back down to earth. Still a good ways from being a legitimate contender.
It would be an insult to offer a deal that small to a Hall of Famer like Lidstrom. Parise is going to get offered around 8Mil per year to play in his hometown I'm guessing. 7.5Mil at the lowest. Suter should get 7 Per year. And the Wild actually aren't a crap team. They were first in the league for the first half of the year until everyone and their brother got injured on that team, and they have (in all seriousness) a better future than the Wings because they have a talented, deep prospect pool which Detroit lacks. It's going to be hard to get Parise and/or Suter here. There will be plenty of competition that's for sure.
You completely lost me talking about the apparently huge discrepancy between the Wild's prospect pool and the Wing's. The Wings STILL have one of the deepest prospect pools around with regards to skill and have any number of players that could be contributors in the near future. The tricky thing with prospects is that skill doesn't always continue to develop, and the Wild will have the same problem. Usually more "busts" than there are game-breakers.
So in the meantime, the Red Wings are the better team on the ice, and at the very least equal in the "count your chickens before they hatch" world of player prospects.

Adell Ziegler denies setting fire to Phoenix, the Jack Russell terrier that touched so many hearts, but that didn't stop a judge from sending him to prison for two years.
State Supreme Court Justice Russell P. Buscaglia referred to the community's outrage over the puppy's plight – he suffered burns over 50 percent of his body – before sentencing Ziegler to the maximum penalty allowed by law.
Buscaglia also ordered the 19-year-old to stay away from animals for the next seven years and added another year to his sentence for a parole violation.
"There's been language describing it as appalling, as gruesome," the judge said of the reaction to Ziegler's actions, "and I don't disagree with any of that."
In sentencing Ziegler, Buscaglia said he considered carefully his troubled upbringing, most notably the absence of any real family.
Ziegler's lawyers painted a portrait of a young man abandoned as a baby by a mother involved with drugs and shuffled around from one foster home to another. They referred to the large number of people who have offered to adopt Phoenix and wondered why no one ever sought to adopt Ziegler while he was growing up.
"This was a child who was discarded by society," said Ann M. Nichols, one of Ziegler's defense lawyers. "His own mother turned him in to police because she wanted reward money."
Prosecutor Kristen A. St. Mary countered by pointing to Ziegler's lack of remorse and his continued insistence that his co-defendant, Diondre L. Brown, was the one who lit Phoenix on fire.
She also referred to tape recordings of phone calls that Ziegler made from jail in which he boasted about his actions.
"He was heard bragging about burning this puppy," St. Mary said. "He boasted that he laughed while committing this act."
District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III went a step further, describing Ziegler as a "genuine sociopath."
"If anyone deserved the maximum, it was this kid," Sedita said.
Like so many stories of abused animals, the tale of Phoenix rising from near death in late October seems to have struck a chord among animal lovers here and across the world.
The Buffalo animal shelter says hundreds of people, including some from outside the United States, emailed, called or messaged the shelter asking about adopting the Jack Russell puppy.
The fact that Phoenix was doused with lighter fluid and then set on fire only added to the outrage.
Ziegler on Tuesday continued to deny setting fire to the puppy but acknowledged he could have intervened at the time.
"I should have, and I apologize for that," he told Buscaglia. "I never intended for anything to happen to the dog."
And what about his admissions while in jail?
"As for me boasting and bragging, that's not true." he insisted.
Despite that denial, Ziegler pleaded guilty in April to felony aggravated cruelty to animals.
Brown, his nephew, claimed he acted as a lookout while Ziegler lit the puppy on fire. He pleaded guilty to felony animal cruelty and was sentenced in May to six months in jail and five years' probation and was ordered to stay away animals for five years.
Assemblyman Sean Ryan, a Buffalo Democrat and the sponsor of a bill designed to double the maximum penalty for felony animal cruelty, said Buscaglia's sentence underscores the importance of "Phoenix's Law."
"New York is unfortunately still lagging when it comes to sentences for animal abuse," Ryan said in a prepared statement.
Sedita agrees and sees Ryan's bill as a good first step. He also thinks it's time to move the law, now part of the state's Agriculture and Markets statutes, to the penal code.
"It sends the wrong message," Sedita said. "This is not a farm issue. This is a real penal law issue."

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
Scientists at Case Western Reserve University report that the gene responsible for determining that a developing human embryo will ultimately be a male appears to be, from an evolutionary point of view, unreliable. The team, which worked with the SRY gene, published their results in an article ("Inherited human sex reversal due to impaired nucleocytoplasmic trafficking of SRY defines a male") in this week's issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
SRY initiates the genetic program that leads to the formation of testes and the production of fetal testosterone. To investigate this gene, Michael Weiss, M.D., Ph.D., and colleagues at the university's school of medicine, studied families in which a daughter shares the same Y chromosome as her father. Females usually develop with an XX chromosomal pair, but, in these families, the father instead produced a daughter with an XY pair. This occurs during fetal development when the SRY gene's master switch fails to trigger. Internal female tissues, such as the uterus and fallopian tubes, continue to develop but are dysfunctional and infertile.
"Yet the father has the same Y chromosome and the same mutation as the daughter," noted Dr. Weiss. "And since he is a fertile male, we know that the switch must be poised right at its edge."
The team decided to measure the biochemical environment that affects the threshold of the SRY master switch. "Our expectation was that we'd find that [a change in the biochemical environment would involve] a factor of 100 or more to alter development," said Dr. Weiss. "But what we found was that the SRY threshold, as probed in father-daughter pairs, is only a factor of two."
Therefore, human males actually develop near the edge of sexual ambiguity. This means that, unlike the robust genetic programs which develop other essential processes like heart function, the SRY gene master switch is particularly vulnerable to change. It only takes a slight deviation from the normal process to dramatically alter fetal sexual development.
"A general principle of developmental biology is that evolution favors reliability," Dr. Weiss explained. "Robust switches ensure that our genetic programs give rise to a consistent body plan to ensure that babies have one heart, two arms, ten fingers, and so forth."
Traditional viewpoints emphasize the uniformity of this process. The new research indicates that male sexual development is less stable than other genetic programs.
Given the importance of sexual reproduction to the survival of a species, why do human SRY genes function so close to the boundary of infertility? The idea of an unreliable master switch might appear paradoxical, but a growing body of research suggests that it might be an evolutionary necessity.
"We speculate that genetic variation in fetal testosterone production influenced the evolution of eutherian mammals, especially species (like humans and mice) that evolved within social groups," wrote the researchers in PNAS. "Implicit in this view are connections between genotype, development, differentiation of the central nervous system, and complex behaviors, including empathy and other social competencies as defined in longitudinal studies of human fetal testosterone exposure."
"We have this tenuous switch on the Y chromosome, and we anticipate that its gift to humanity is variability in the pathway of male development from its earliest stages," added Dr. Weiss. "The essential idea is that our evolution has favored a broad range of social competencies. In prehistory, this range would have given a survival advantage to communities enriched by a diversity of gender styles."
The implications of Dr. Weiss's research suggest that elements of human culture, which had been assumed to be psychological or cultural, may be biological, instead. Therefore, human evolution would not have been dependent on consistency and homogeneity, but on their exact opposite.

The 7 Types of Halloween Costume and What They Say About You
#3. The Grown-Up
You completely forgot it was Halloween, but unlike the Slapdash, you don't have anywhere to be. This year, you're going to go as "you, but in a sensible sweater," and the only place you're "going" is "to bed early."
#2. The Overachiever
Let me say this up front: I love the Overachievers. I have nothing but respect for you guys. I love the way you go half-mad and full-bankrupt just for a single disposable costume; it bespeaks a kind of childlike enthusiasm and earnestness that's worth a thousand sequinned mini-skirts and half-assed pop culture references.
But if you're not the overachiever at your party: Stay away from them. The Overachiever's costume is genius in theory (and a handful of pictures), but in practice it's usually cold, awkward and alienating. They can't hear shit through their custom-welded BioShock Big Daddy diving helmet, their Aliens forklift-loader claws just knocked over the entire bar and, while it's rad that they can transform into a fully functioning car, that just means that they're going to be catastrophically drunk driving around the living room in a few hours and they're wearing way too much plastic armor to be stopped.
"I'm Drunklebee, you can't stop me! Hahaha, your screams only fuel Drunklebee!"
The Overachiever is a walking disaster area waiting to happen, and you're going to be their collateral damage. Just give them a solid "Fuck yeah" and maybe slip them five bucks or something -- they've sacrificed everything in their lives to show you that bitchin' costume. They're probably going to wake up empty tomorrow, and they'll need a beer and a sandwich to get them through the postpartum depression.
#1. The Bearded Guy
The bearded guy is easy to spot: He's the guy with the beard. You have no fucking idea what his costume is supposed to be, but he sure does have a beard. Byron Beard, inventor of the beard? Who knows? Listen: I know it's a shitty costume, but it's not his fault. The beard demands commitment, and any facial hair but the most basic of moustaches severely limits one's costume choice. Please, do not judge us: Our options are slim.
Sure, Bearded Guys will land on the occasional spot of genius -- we have our Richie Tenenbaums; our Fat Jim Morrisons; our Hagrids -- but those references only stay fresh for so long.
Chubby bearded guys everywhere: You are welcome.
This year, at best, we've got Robert Baratheon from Game of Thrones. But most people won't guess it -- they'll assume that we're either just "a knight" or "a crazy homeless guy trying to crash the party." If you see the Bearded Guy at a Halloween party tonight, don't ask him if he's a terrorist or Paul Bunyan; just say "nice costume, man" and leave it at that. He knows you don't actually get it, but he's sad enough to take the gesture for what it was: sweet, sweet pity. If you're dressed up as Smurfette, maybe hit up some of that mystery punch and start thinking about how he looks like your dad a little bit ...
Buy Robert's stunning, transcendental, orgasmic science fiction novel, Rx: A Tale of Electronegativity, right here. Or buy Robert's other (pretty OK) book, Everything Is Going to Kill Everybody: The Terrifyingly Real Ways the World Wants You Dead. Follow him on Tumblr, Twitter and Facebook.

Dear dlfdesigns 3512596: On the beginning page, the one with the bouquet of pansies, if you look on the left side, you will see a heading of crochet flowers. I think you will find the remaining flower patterns here. You say you are wasting paper and ink - I wonder why you would print something out that you weren't sure of. To get the pattern for each named flower, just hold your cursor over the name of the flower, and it will open up and provide you with the instructions. Hope this works for you.

I have spent one whole weekend trying to get a copy of each flower pattern you advertise as 14 flowers to crochet, It is advertised on several pages and you get the same thing no matter which ad you click you get a picture of the violets and advertising more flowers page to tells about daffodil bouquet Where are you hiding the remaining 13-14 flower instruction No wonder it is listed as FREE.. At this try I have so far wasted 19 pieces of paper because they are copies of the same picture and no directions. Beside the wated paper I am using ink like mad and the inK costs a fortune One black ink cartridge and one color ink cartridge cost $50.00 a pop. I might as well forget the 14 flowers. Of course I want the annome, and the red poppy that I see a picture of onece in a while but I can't get the instructions. I don't even know what the other flowers. 3 or 4 days ago I ordered about 95.00 worth of mostly patterns

NESCONSET, NEW YORK -- I see many complaints here about Bob's furniture, delivery and customer service so I felt compelled to give my positive review figuring that people only post reviews when they have a bad experience, but not the good. I bought a couch and a king sized Bobby Bear bed with euro top (which I've also seen several complaints about). The salesman I dealt with was very friendly, patient and helpful. After putting my order through I even changed my mind on which couch I wanted before even leaving the store, and he gladly changed the order for me and I gave him the additional money because that couch was $200 more than my original choice.
The furniture was delivered the date it was promised and I had a car accident on my way to my new apartment to meet the delivery, so they even came back later the same day because I was not there for their first delivery attempt that morning due to the accident (as a side note, I was not hurt but my Mercedes was totaled, not a good start to my day). When the delivery guys arrived they were nice enough and although they seemed to move quickly, which made me nervous they would damage the furniture, they didn't cause any damage to the furniture or my new place, and in no time the furniture was inside.
Unfortunately, the one problem I did have was when they started to unwrap the couch, I noticed it was not the color I had ordered it in. I called the store while they waited and arranged for a new delivery of the correct color couch. The salesman said I could keep the wrong color couch for now and when they deliver the correct color couch, they will pick up the wrong couch at the same time. I thought that was cool because at least I still have a couch in the meantime. Other than that I didn't have any problem with Bob's furniture at all.
It is now almost 5 years later and although I have since moved and did have the furniture in storage for part of that time, I have been using the furniture for a total of around 3 1/2 years and I am still happy with both pieces. My Bobby Bear bed is still so comfy, and I believe the problem people are having with it being lumpy or sagging may have something to do with the frame, because I don't have mine on a frame, I have it on the floor with a dust ruffle on the box spring because I don't like my bed too high up and mine is still firm, no lumps and no sagging at all.
My couch is also still in good shape, no sagging and not falling apart and I have pets and fat friends who sit all over it! As far as the stories about the Goof proof insurance, I bought it too but that is a separate company which is an "insurance" company, and to me it just doesn't make sense that they would actually replace or repair anything for such a small amount of money, even damage done due to one's own fault such a long time after purchase and use.
If something seems too good to be true, that's probably because it is. Most insurance is rarely what it's sold as. I got it too but never really had reason to use it. Both of my choices have since been discontinued, and I feel lucky I got them when I did because I am still very happy with both.
WILMINGTON, DELAWARE -- Back in December 2015 I purchased a king size storage bed at the Wilmington, DE location. Not even a month later the bed broke. The frame that the wooden slates were on cracked and the boards were sloping down causing the mattress to sink; unable to sleep on the bed. When they came out they told us that it was put together incorrectly, poorly and it looked rushed.
In March the bed broke AGAIN!! The same piece on the opposite side of the bed this time! They came out and the person told me "The adhesive is not compatible with the wood..." Then why are you using it?!? A week later the bed broke for the THIRD time!! SAME PIECE IN THE SAME SPOT!!! Mind you, I'm still continuing to make payments on a BROKEN bed!!
I called customer service and was very upset and felt like this has been a big inconvenience to me in the last 3 months! I went to the store the next day and the manager came out and was trying to sell me another storage bed, EVEN THE SAME ONE THAT KEPT BREAKING!! I had to basically use the credit from the original bed that I no longer wanted because they didn't want to give me my money back! I ended up having to get a non-storage bed and get a bed that I forced myself to like because the beds were not what I wanted!
I also went over to the showroom floor bed of the one I originally had and to my surprise when I lifted the mattress THAT BED WAS BROKE TOO!!! The manager told me that I could get a metal frame placed into the BED FRAME of the bed I picked out so I would feel comfortable not having the wooden slates going across the bed...
They literally just came out today 3/29/16 while I'm at work and they tell my boyfriend that the metal frame does not fit! I had to now sacrifice the rails and the footboard that I was originally told, BY THE STORE MANAGER, were going to be fine with the metal frame I purchased!! WRONG!!! I FEEL CHEATED AND I FEEL LIED TO!
I WILL NEVER SHOP AT BOB'S EVER AGAIN!! And I would never recommend this company to anyone!!! And to be clear, I still have to make payments... No compensation for the time I had to sacrifice for all the times they came out on my days off! Or for me having to spend almost 2 hours in the store to find a bed that I had to settle for! Very, very unhappy customer!!!
BROOKLYN, NEW YORK -- I will never shop here again. We bought bedroom furniture for my daughter who was moving to a house in Queens. Once we received the call regarding delivery schedule I told them that she wouldn't be able to physically enter the house till 12:00 noon on the day of delivery. Instead of making the delivery time later it was changed to earlier! The person I spoke to put the change in as a request and not a building restriction, which I found out later.
Finally was able to get the furniture delivered a day later and they delivered the WRONG SIZE MATTRESS, BROKEN HEADBOARD, and the under bed storage drawers weren't assembled and installed by the delivery people for reasons unknown.
I must have talked to 10 different people in Customer Care. I had to call and wait on hold every time. There's no manager or point person to talk to when things go wrong. You talk to whomever answers the phone in Customer Care and they put in a request! Don't bother calling the store directly. They are basically worthless once the order is placed.
I was promised a whole new bed and the right mattress. They delivered a new headboard only and the correct mattress, but finally everything was delivered and in working order. My daughter works 2 jobs. She had to miss work in order to be home for delivery.
I then had to call them back in order to talk to someone regarding compensation, which I did and was disconnected when speaking to a Customer Care manager. I called back right away and had to explain all over again. There was no record of my conversation. I was finally connected to the Refund Dept. and was able to get some compensation. They originally tried to give me a Bob's gift card. NO thank you. This whole transaction was very unprofessional and ridiculous. I'm amazed at what a poor system they have and the lack of customer service when things go wrong, and it was Bob's mistake in the first place.
FAIRFAX, VIRGINIA -- I must say that the BOB's Discount Furniture at 13055A Lee Jackson Memorial Highway, Greenbriar Shopping Center Fairfax, VA 22033, has the worst manager (**) and front desk staff (**) I have ever encountered. I purchased several thousand dollars of furniture on a Friday and returned on Sunday to make another purchased only to have my deliver date changed with no explanation but to say the computer system will not let the employees go back and make changes. (What they really meant, was, we gave your furniture to someone else and want to give you an excuse that we think sounds good).
Bottom line, the manager and front desk staff do not care once they get your money and do not care if you walk out upset. PLEASE, DO NOT BUY FURNITURE FROM BOB's. The furniture is too expensive, cheap-looking and the staff will give you the runaround. If the staff and managers do not care about customer service, you know they won't care once they get your money!!!
PORTLAND, MAINE -- When attempting to order a dresser online from the store website the system indicated that I lived outside the delivery area and there was no alternate option for me to select. The system stopped processing the order at this point. I called the store to speak with a customer service representative named Kim, who told me that they no longer accepted store deliveries. I asked how someone is supposed to receive products from them if they do not deliver to a physical address and will not accept client pickup at the store. This conversation had plenty of attitude that came with it from her.
When she finally listened to what I was saying about a delivery/pickup issue she said they would accept in-store pickup. Finally! She said she was transferring me to someone who could assist me with my order. I was sent to Debbie who when I began to explain what I was trying to do, immediately told me that I could not pick items up at the store... here we go again... I tried to explain the situation to her, and I must say with some frustration on my part at this point, and she hung up one me. Great Customer Service!!!
I called back to speak with the store manager, Steve, who was very polite and helpful. He had Joey contact me who has processed my order without any hassle or attitude, and an in-store pickup. The manager indicated the delivery policy had been an issue on multiple occasions today and they realized that they needed to address the staff on the matter. Their computer ordering system needs attention and their customer service people need some better training on how to work with customers.
PARAMUS, NEW JERSEY -- Never sign up for Bob's Discount Furniture protection plan. When I bought my dining table the salesperson told me, "Anything happen to your furniture it will be covered." One of my dining table chair leg broke and when I call them they said that "it is not covered" as breaking of chair leg is not an accident. It is completely fraud. This protection is complete waste of money. No matter whatever is the cause of damage of your furniture "Guardian" (Protection plan agency) will tell you that it is not accident so you are not covered. Never sign up for protection plan. It is completely fraud.
LAKE GROVE, NEW YORK -- Do not buy from Bob's Furniture!!! They do not stand behind their products at all. Their prices might be a little cheaper, but the quality is junk. The sofa we bought we also added the "GOOF PROOF." OMG what a scam!! Two years of light use on the sofa and the arm rest cracked while leaning over to get TV remote in the dark. Called Goof Proof (Guardian) and was told it was not covered at all because it was not a accident (REALLY). They lied to me and jerked me around for over a month telling me that they were trying to work out a resolution with Bob's. They never called me back so I called Goof Proof (Guardian). They said they never said that.
I finally called BOB'S and they sent out a "service tech". He stated it was normal wear and tear. Really? Only 2 years of light use. I have now filed a complaint with the BBB and called my credit card company who agrees with me 100%. They are going to dispute the whole bill. You have been warned. Spend a few more dollars and buy from a company that sells better furniture and stands behind it. BOB'S FURNITURE SELLS NOTHING BUT JUNK THAT THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND. If you do buy from them you are buying at your own risk.
WARWICK, RI -- Customer care my rear end. I've been trying to get a replacement handle from Bob's since Aug 2015 (which I've already paid for). After speaking to numerous customer care reps and sending photos of the part I need, I still do not have the correct part. They've sent me 2 incorrect parts though. Bravo, Bob's, bravo. Total incompetence. Look... spend a little more and buy elsewhere.
NEW YORK -- Why is "my Bob's furniture" still in business? Let's see, high prices for cheaply built furniture, poor service, pushy sales people, a warehouse that dictates to customers when their furniture is being delivered, and store managers who really could care less about the customer. So why are they still in business?
SECAUCUS, NEW JERSEY -- These fake people convince me to make a huge mistake and purchase my entire furniture in their store. Don't I regret it! Plus, they also tricked me into buy the Fake ** Warranty that doesn't work for **. Pardon my language but am so upset (How do you do that to a PREGNANT women?). I work so hard for my ** money for these people to come rip me off.

A highly acclaimed Broadway musical that, unfortunatley, I haven't seen (a problem with living on the other side of the country). However, the soundtrack is HELLA funny, and should be checked out by all.
What do you do witha B.A. in English, what is my life going to be? Four years of college and plenty of knowledge have earned me this useless degree! I cant pay the bills yet cause I've got no skills yet, the world is a big scary place!!!

In developing Windows 8, power efficiency was a primary engineering theme. This means that all aspects of the system were designed and developed with efficient power usage in mind. It's paid off—Windows 8 is the most power efficient version of Windows to date.
In this video, Windows Development Lead Bruce Worthington, an OS power and performance expert who leads a team of engineers working on Windows power management fundamentals, sits down with us to share the story of power efficiency in Windows 8. The renewed focus on power has paid off and is evident across the Windows ecosystem—from Windows on tablets, notebooks, hybrids, and desktops to Windows running in the data center.
Huge thanks to Bruce for this excellent conversation!
Tune in.
Oops, something didn't work.
Bruce is an excellent presenter. I would love to see more data (numbers). Is there a Windows power blog?
@deiruch: I don't think so. Or, I don't know.
Have you or are you considering power management through CPU underclocking. Especially concurrent with many of your other power management enhancements such as "Connected Standby", coalesced network/disk activity, coalesced timers, etc?

text: Spotlight: Ruth Caruthers, West Virginia by You're C. on Thursday, July 25, 2013 Ruth Caruthers West Virginia Corbin Walker Caruthers was born 364 days after his older brother Colton. I had a "normal" pregnancy, regular checkups, and when my water broke the morning after Colton's first birthday, I went into the hospital expecting hours of labor and a healthy baby. I ended up having a last minute c-section and what looked like a healthy baby, but the doctor informed me that Corbin had a heart murmur. We were scheduled for an echo a couple days later. The first echo was inconclusive, so we were to come back two days later for another. This time, we were given the full diagnosis: Corbin had life threatening heart defects and needed to heart surgery to save his life. Five hours later, Corbin was in Ruby Memorial hospital awaiting surgery. Three months later, three heart surgeries, and countless IV's and medications later, Corbin's heart stopped. It was about 8:45 on May 17th when they called us to say they were giving him CPR and we needed to come quickly. We watched as a team of doctors and nurses tried their hardest to save Corbin, but it was too late. Corbin's story does not end there. A few months after he passed away, I teamed up with two heart moms and the American Heart Association to introduce a bill that would require every newborn in WV to be tested for heart defects. Corbin's Bill passed in a record three months. The hospital where he was born implemented pulse ox screening August 1st, 2012, and many more are to follow. Corbin's story continues on and through his legacy, we are saving lives. « Now share your story Share This
