I felt it necessary to document the details of my rental experience to warn others of the dangers of dealing with these unscrupulous operators. It makes me shudder to think that such people can continue to operate in such an illegal manner and basically get away with it.
There are documented stories on the internet dating back to 2005 of between 8 to 10 individuals who have gone through the same harrowing experience with the same company(ies) in Montreal and Toronto. It is time that someone took legal action against the operators and bar them from doing business in Canada.
On Monday August 21, 2006 I found Rent-Rite on the internet. I then called the number and spoke with a person named "Arti". She confirmed my reservation at $149.95 per week plus $36.95 for an additional day. As well, she indicated that there would be an additional $10 charge per day for my son (22 years of age), as an extra driver. I received a confirmation number and thought that I had arranged a reasonably priced car rental.
When I arrived in Montreal, I waited for the Hilton shuttle which dropped me off at the hotel and I proceeded to the Rent-Rite counter. However, I did not see any sign of that particular name, When I inquired whether this was Rent-Rite I was told by the man at the desk that it was. In fact, he indicated that they operate under a number of names including EuropCar and Autowise. However, when I completed the contract, it was a formal Advantage Rent-A-Car document and not Rent-Rite.
With respect to insurance, I indicated that I was fully covered for collision under my American Express Corporate Card. I also had $2 Million 3rd party liability under MPIC ? Manitoba Public Insurance Corporation. As a result I emphatically indicated that I did NOT require extra insurance. The person taking the information indicated that all I need to do is initial in the boxes he indicates and that I would not be charged for extra insurance. I did so without reading the small print.
The gentlemen then proceeded to ask for my American Express Corporate card and indicated that he was having a charge of $750 approved on my card ?just in case I received any parking tickets in Montreal?. He told me that this was company policy as the firm did not want to get stuck with parking tickets and the $750 would be used only for that purpose. I felt this was quite unusual and had never experienced this before, but I agreed under these conditions.
We then proceed to inspect the car for damage and found that there was no obvious damage on the vehicle.
After 8 days, I returned the vehicle within the allotted time. Even though I had one hour's grace I made sure that the vehicle was returned early so as not to incur another days' charges. My expectation was that the bill would be in the neighbourhood of $300.00.
After waiting about 30 minutes for someone to show up at the counter, an employee proceeded to check the vehicle for damage. He immediately got down on his knees and looked under the front bumper. He then made a statement that was a precursor for me of the lengths these people go to to extract more money from their clients. He indicated that there were ?scratches under the front bumper which were not there when I had rented the vehicle?. This was absolutely absurd and I told him so. He did not respond but proceeded to go back to the counter to prepare the invoice.
He then told me that I would be paying for 9 days and not 8. I insisted that I only had the car for 8 days and he kept insisting that it was 9. This was finally resolved after a bit of a shouting match.
He then indicated that the bill is in the neighbourhood of $650.00. This enraged me and I realized that I was being ripped-off. His explanation to me was as follows:
- I was being charged $20 per day for the extra driver (instead of $10 as earlier agreed with the owner Arti Sood
- I was being charged for 3rd party liability insurance even though I had clearly indicated that I was fully covered and declined the insurance
- I was being charged in US dollars ? even though I am Canadian and was renting from a Canadian company at a Canadian airport
The person at the counter told me that I had in fact initialed a box on the contract that gave them the authority to charge for additional insurance. I had been tricked by the previous attendant as had happened to others in the past. I had not read the ?fine print? when I placed my initials in the boxes on the contract and I was tricked into purchasing the insurance against my will and instructions.
When I asked about the USD charge he very frankly told me to ?read the fine print?. I have not been able to find this anywhere on the contract.
I was so upset that I did NOT sign the American Express slip and just boarded the shuttle back to the airport. I did NOT receive any other document outlining the actual charges from Advantage and proceeded to call Customer Service at American Express to express my disgust at what had transpired and to have a formal record of complaint on my file regarding Advantage Rent-a-Car.
Just as I boarded the bus and once the driver overheard me discussing the situation with my wife he indicated that "You are doing a great thing". its about time someone stood up to these car rental people . everyone renting a car there has problems . This made me realize that the situation was not an isolated incident and that I was just one of many that have been duped by these shady operators.
When I arrived at the airport and checked into the Air Canada Executive Lounge I proceeded to call Arti to discuss the situation. She indicated to me that I was correct with respect to the $10 for a second driver and that she would provide me a credit for $80 plus applicable taxes. However, with respect to the insurance she would need written proof from my insurance company prior to offering a credit for the amount charged for the extra insurance.
She initially tried to skirt the issue by saying that I had initialed the appropriate box and had accepted the insurance. However, if I can prove that I was covered for a rental car she will provide me with a full credit. I also asked about a $4.95 daily charge and she indicated that this was a standard vehicle license fee. I had no knowledge of this and wondered why this was on my original contract. With respect to the bill being in US dollars she claimed that this is not possible and I must have misunderstand the attendant at the counter, even though another client at the counter heard this being said to me.
Upon my return to Winnipeg, I contacted Manitoba Public Insurance and within a couple of days I received confirmation from them that I had $2 million in 3rd party liability insurance and that I was covered for rental cars in North America. I then faxed this to Arti and after many attempts to speak with her on the phone I finally reached her. She basically started twisting the intent of the document by suggesting that I would need proof that I was covered prior to the rental and suggested that I just purchased the insurance so as not to have to pay the rental company. This was absolutely ludicrous as you cannot drive an automobile in Manitoba without having third party liability. I have had this insurance for almost 40 years !! It was obvious that she was not planning to offer any credit.
During a period of 2 weeks I attempted to send emails and faxes to her but never received a response. Basically, she was stalling to the point where she hoped I would just forget about the issue. I tried on several occasions to get a list of the exact charges on my credit card but to no avail.
To this date, I have not seen an itemized list of charges to my Amex Corporate Account. Arti's (Mrs. Sood) excuse is always that she is ?too busy? to do it. In fact, I have had absolutely no communication from her to any of my faxes or emails.
At this point it is important to realize that I had not authorized American Express for the payment since I had not signed the Amex slip. However, Arti used the original $750 security deposit that was supposedly for parking tickets to get the advance from American Express ? entirely illegal.
I attempted to contact Advantage Rent-A-Car in El Paso, Texas. The person I dealt with was quite friendly and sympathized with my situation. However, he indicated that since the car had not been rented through Advantage directly he had no power to deal with the problem. He did offer, however, to call Arti and speak with her.
I then called Arti again and once I was able to reach her she blew up at me indicating that I had no right to speak with Advantage Head Office and since I was a ?trouble-maker? she would no longer honour her commitment to give me a credit. When I heard these words I hung up on her and decided that other types of action would be necessary to put an end to this unscrupulous ?business?.
I then placed a call to the Dispute Settlement branch of American Express and filed a formal complaint indicating that as far as I was concerned I was responsible for only $304.26 of the supposed bill amounting to $601.27. They agreed to bill me the amount indicated and they would temporarily suspend an amount of $297.01 until the issue had been resolved. Afer approximately 6 weeks, Amex had no response from Arti and as a result found in my favor and I was given credit for the $297.01.
It is interesting to note that I was able to find at least eight (8) complaints that have an eerie similarity to my case on the internet. The circumstances in several are almost exactly the same as my situation. I am now concerned that the Arti will somehow try to charge me for damage to the car's bumper as the company has done to others months after the rental transaction.
It is my sincere opinion that both Arti Ghai Sood and her husband Raj Sood must be stopped from continuing to do business in Canada. They are perpetrating fraud of the worst kind preying on unsuspecting tourists to the Province of Quebec and now apparently to the Province of Ontario. Their treatment of customers is absolutely deplorable.
I have rented cars all over the world and never experienced this kind of outright fraud and deceptive practices anywhere else. Everything I was told by them and their employees was untrue. It is an absolute mystery to me how they can continue to do business this way without the authorities taking action.
This letter is being forwarded to a number of interested parties, including American Express, in an attempt to lay out the facts and to put an end to the continuing deceptions and frauds being inflicted upon innocent people by the individuals and companies noted above. A serious investigation is definitely warranted and hopefully someone at the Provincial level (Province of Quebec) will see the merit in undertaking such an inquiry.
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation aired the story on Canadian national television but was intimidated by Arti to such an extent that none of the aforementioned details were noted on the broadcast. A mere threat of a lawsuit caused CBC to basically tell the story without mentioning any names and as a result the viewing public had no idea of the facts of the case and could very well become more prey for the perpetrators of this fraud.

2010 NFL Season Preview: The Top 10 Positional Battles in the NFC North
By Ryan Cook ,
If it's toughness, excitement and a sheer will to win that you want, watch NFC North football, I promise all of you it won't disappoint.
In 2009, the NFC North was the place to be. The Vikings were atop the division, the Packers kept making run after run toward the playoffs and ultimately succeeded, and despite the Bears and Lions' woes, they put up a good fight for most of the season.
But that's all in the past, and in 2010, expect to see these four teams slug it out in another difficult decade of North football.
However, before we look at the teams themselves, it's important to look at the players and more importantly, just which guys may have to fight for their starting role this season.
The list isn't long, but it sure is exciting. So to quote Will Smith, "Let's kick it off!". Here's a look at The Top 10 Positional Battles in the NFC North.
Seeing as Jay Cutler has been granted a second opportunity to actually perform well for the Chicago Bears this season, a lot lays on the line for No. 6, given his woeful ways in 2009.
For the Chicago Bears, life is pretty simple. Win, and we'll get off your back. Lose, and we'll continue to question and scrutinize you.
Unfortunately for the Bears though, a lot comes down to how Jay Cutler performs this season, and whether he can truly step up to the plate, and prove that all the money the Bears have invested in him has been worth their while.
Realistically, Jay Cutler probably won't be replaced. It would take a real fall from grace for him to step out of the limelight, but just so he doesn't get too comfortable, the Bears drafted Dan LeFevour back in April.
Weirder things have happened in Chicago, and I think we all have bad memories of the boos heard at Soldier Field accompanied by "We Want Griese."
Jay Cutler needs a good season, and so do the Bears. Still, LeFevour is a shot, and if Cutler goes down injured, he may get his chance at the big game.
It's not a real competition, but is it one that could heat up at a moment's notice.
Since the Packers have made the transition from a good offense to a great offense, the need for a 100 percent work ethic has increased for all players.
In the past, the Packers have always been about two men: Donald Driver and Greg Jennings. They've been there since the Brett Favre days, and are still putting up underrated numbers year in and year out.
Realistically, both of these guys could make a small case for the Hall of Fame. However, before they eye Canton too much, some new talent may be swooping in to rally for their starting roles.
Just who am I talking about?
Well, some of you may not know them as well as Packer fans do, but I'm talking about Jordy Nelson and James Jones, two young men that have begun to slide their way into the Packer lineup.
Both of these guys possess a ton of talent, and given Driver and Jennings' age, both men are likely candidates to takeover when the untimely day comes for the old timers to retire.
They may not win the starting role this season, but keep your eye on them. They have that uncanny explosive ability to surprise you at any given moment.
The Lions have a list a mile long of issues and concerns, but the cornerback position has been an ongoing problem for Detroit in past years.
For the most part, Detroit faithfuls have taken off the paper bag and placed their utmost trust in newly signed cornerback Chris Houston, who has been brought in from the Atlanta Falcons.
As promising as this all sounds though, some serious competition awaits the young man, as the Lions have intensified the situation by drafting Iowa standout Amari Spievy this offseason.
Not only this the Lions have also acquired former Ram Jonathan Wade, who hopes to earn his way into the side in his very first Lions season.
For some odd reason, this battle has gone a little underrated. However, Detroit fans now fancy their chances at a possible number two spot in the NFC North as Brett Favre has "retired", than the cornerback position needs some attention.
Fans, keep an eye on this battle, as we may see head coach Jim Schwartz utilize both men equally this season. Hopefully by this time next year we have a definite answer, until then though, enjoy the show.
Ever since Bryan Bulaga was drafted by the Packers in April, fans seem to have forgotten that the Packers had some serious offensive line concerns last season.
Still, you can't help but credit Green Bay for drafting a suitable player, and even though he does look like a standout to prosper, some competition still looms on the Packers offensive line roster.
The real battle here is easy. Daryn Colledge vs. Jason Spitz vs. T.J Lang.
All three occupy the left guard position, one of the key area's quarterback Aaron Rodgers was exposed upon last season.
Perhaps an offensive line battle isn't quite as exciting as say a wide receiver or quarterback rally, but it's always good to see big guys slug it out.
For Packer fans, some nails will be chewed, but hey, at least the Packers have some depth, right?
A season on, are we all in agreement that Percy Harvin is a damn good player? I hope so.
Now that Brett Favre has seemingly retired, the Minnesota Vikings receiver position has become all that more vital.
Right now three standouts are on the roster, whose names are Percy Harvin, Bernard Berrian, and Sidney Rice.
Last season saw Brad Childress rotate all three of these guys quite fairly. This season though, with no great quarterback in site, expect to see some solidification come into play in the coming weeks.
For the most part, Minnesota aren't recognized for their wide receivers, but all three are fun to watch.
They all have that "Big play" factor about them, and given Percy Harvin's age, he alone should be able to go a long distance.
No Favre and no great quarterback may equal no playoffs. Therefore, the Vikings need to ensure they have the right receivers for the job.
If you haven't heard already, rookie running back Jahvid Best has impressed just about everyone at team training camps the past week.
He's been rushing the ball well, catching well, and above all else just fitting into a rebuilding system nicely.
Unfortunately for Best though, things aren't all positive, as 2009 starting running back Kevin Smith has a few things to prove in his 2010 season.
More to the point, this is a very intriguing battle. Both guys are young, and both want to stabilize the Lions in the best way possible.
Who is fit for the job? It's a very tough call, as Jahvid Best has such a following right now.
However, it isn't a popularity contest, and at the end of the day, one of these guys will win the starting role. A position battle? Think again. This is an all-out war between two potentially star athletes.
I'm not normally a numbers guy, but there have been 40 different combinations at the safety position since Lovie Smith took over. That's nearly as many men as there are on an entire roster.
For the Bears, it is vital that they configure their defense this season. They've acquired Julius Peppers, and the transition of Danieal Manning and Chris Harris to free and strong safety hopefully will work out for them.
Back to the numbers though, if there have been 40 different combinations, that factor alone means there is some serious competition.
Rest assured that if both of these guys fail in the early going, Lovie Smith won't hesitate to take any action necessary.
It's a good ol' Chicago battle that has been drawn out for quite some time. They may not be the most recognizable guys in the league, but it makes for a very good showdown.
This battle is between the young and the old, Atari Bigby vs. Morgan Burnett.
Ever since I can remember, I've been an Atari Bigby fan. Firstly, it's hard to not love a guy that has the same name as a video console, and secondly, he is just a fantastic player to watch.
However, in the past two years or so, he has taken his finger off the button, and let his performance slip a little. Given he posted four interceptions last season, Atari Bigby hasn't been as reliable as Packer fans had hoped for.
And to make matters worse, the Green Bay Packers have now drafted safety Morgan Burnett, which adds more pressure to Atari's situation.
For the Packers, their defense has been elite in the past 12 months. So when it comes right down to it, whoever performs better will take the honors.
A safety battle is always interesting, and this one promises an Academy Award-winning performance.
It's obvious to just about everyone that the Bears have some serious concerns at the wide receiver position.
Jay Cutler is a question, and with no No. 1 wide receiver in sight, things could go from bad to worse in the Windy City this year.
Luckily, the Bears do have some options. The first is Devin Hester, who has been okay, but far from great at the wide receiver position.
The others are Johnny Knox, Greg Matthews, Devin Aromashodu along with numerous other experienced and inexperienced players who could step into the starting role this season.
Every good quarterback is as good as his receivers, so Lovie Smith needs to get this decision right. Let the guys play, and it should all be determined in time.
It seems to be now official that Brett Favre won't be returning in 2010, so now comes the time for the Vikings to figure out which backup will start this season.
The competitors are simple: Tarvaris Jackson, Sage Rosenfels and Joe Webb.
Are any of these guys even considerable? Well, we've seen Tarvaris in action already, so no, probably not. But we'll give them all a second chance anyway.
The Vikings are still a playoff team, minus a great player, so it is important that they regroup and try and come up with a solution to having a potentially weak quarterback.
Minnesota may be kicking themselves that they didn't draft a quarterback in April, but live with the mistakes you make.
Favre is gone, and now comes the time for one of these three men to show us just what they've got. Bring on the competition, it is by far the most exciting one of all.

That isn't even close to a competitive balance. What you've created is the big 12 divisions. The South who beats up on each other making it more difficult to stay in the NC picture and then you've got the North who plays 1 game each year and coasts to the championship game. I would think they would balance them more than you've come up with. If not I for one will be very disappointed.

I tell you the truth eriaron, and i know many more "martinez's", lopez's, zapata's, perez's, etc that feel the same as i do. and with that out on the table, when i become president, i am deporting you immediately:=) just kidding eriaron, not immediately.
* Mr. Martinez include a Vega that agrees with you....
*Gone to heaven I miss him.....
* my fave was one i had a few years back...humpty dumpty was pushed....
Mine came from a time there was a big fuss and i just stood and listen and watch the drama playout. And my email is littlenana325...it came from my granddaughter looking at pictures of me when i was a little girl and she said...*Look it's you when you were a little nana... lol
There is no quota and no bonus....
I want to know who was with the child that drowned 23yrs. ago. I know accidents happen and that is exactly what that was...Everyday when our grandkids, kids play @ school there could be an accident..Does that mean there shouldn't be any playground equipment ? Now i have 13 grandkids and i can assure you that they do not go alone to the park rain or shine...Now where are my grandkids going to play. ?
*got an earache... get newspaper and make it into a cone and stick it in your ear and light it up and watch the air come out of your ear...it puffs.. my kids use to laugh when i would do this to them like my mom did to me. then one of them started working at GNC. and guess what they sell them now... works the same as newspaper...
*having lost my husband in 2009 & my mom 2010 i can tell you i hated when people would tell me " well they are not suffering anymore". they are in a better place. and lest not forget it will get easier..really how ? i was suppose to grow old with my husband.. and my mom was suppose to live forever . and one day someone told my son ..sorry about your dad * he said the man looked nervous so my son asked him...Why did you kill him ! might sound morbid but they hugged and laughed so much.. and when my mom passed my son was crying and said mom sorry about nana. and i said what he did ...all i say when someone passed is.."if you need anything i will be here for you." sorry doesn't cut it for me...
*i know rudy and his mom and his mom told me about this last week. she is very proud of him. his parents are doing an awesome job raising him ....way to go rudy...mrs. vega.. this is what he calls me very polite young boy...
I have had questions regarding the citizens report card. While helping one of the canidates visit w/ local citizens they mentioned that Mr. Alexander came by and left a report card w/ him. This person did mention to me that the report card was too long (3 pages) and that he did not have time to fill it out. Which leads me back to the last conversation I had w/ Mr. Alexander, how will we get people to actually fill them out? This one particular person just set it aside and actually couldn't even find it when I asked to see it. (being curious to review it myself)
Mr Alexander: You stated that you sold your most time consumming business in August, well does that mean that you are still involved in othe business ventures at this time. Recently I was visiting your facebook page and on a video you stated that you had your hands in many different business ventures throughout san angelo. Which this strikes me as odd due to the fact that you've made it a point to state that you can devote 100% of your time to this office. Well how is that an accurate statment if you still have your hands in so many other business ventures!? It doesn't make sense to me..... I've heard a few canidates make the same comments about being able to devote 100% of their time to this position. But the same thing applies to them, for example in yesterdays bio of all the canidates it clearly states that Mr. Cardenas is a business man, Mr. Fields as owner of ranger aviation, and a rancher. Then Mr. Walker as part-time security gaurd, Mr. New as a rancher and investor. All these men that continuously make the statement that they can devote 100% of their time to the position all seem to be busy men to me. Both Mr. Grimes and Mr. Bart have stated that they have other jobs that they need to support their families and will continue to persue as they hold the office. But all the other canidates have been so careful and persistant in making sure that they say that they will devote 100% of their time.....I'd say that is a false statement, not only about the other canidates but about yourself. Again as a 4th generation resident I have to say that I have never been asked to participate in any type of surveying/mearsuring in san angelo. Niether has any of my family living in San Angelo, so how are you sure that it's going to get to alll the people of san angelo? How is it that in the last 20 years that this so called surveying has been done dozens of times as you've put it... How come you've failed to have consistancy w/ this vision of yours!?
Yet another letter talking about Mr. Alexander and his so called vision. Well i have a few questions and concerns: What has taken him so long to establish or to put into action this vision of his as Mayor. I've heard Mr. Alexander make the statement that he has wanted to be mayor of san angelo for 15 years, that's half my life!! With such a positive vision and w/ all the confidence that he seems to have in himself why did he not run for mayor in the past. Where was this visionary back in the summer when JW Lown was up for re-election. There were 3 other canidates running at that time, although they didn't beat JW out for his seat. They still went forward w/ their vision as mayor. Heck, even the 18year old high school student went after his vision. One would think that w/ his degrees and his business knowledge that he continously talks about, he'd be a shoe in for Mayor. Why did he not run at that time!? Second, with his citizens report card. How will thie citizens report card be distributed and get to the citizens of san angelo. TO ALL THE CITIZENS OF SAN ANGELO. We can't even get the citizens to attend a city council meeting, we cant get them to vote. Much less to sit down and fill out a report card. Another thing- Mr. Alexander brags and brags about how he is a third generation resident of San Angelo. Well I am a fourth generation resident of San Angelo. My great-grandmother came to san angelo as a young girl in a horse and buggy w/ her parents. She lived on knickerbocker rd, when there were actually houses there, when it was a dirt road. And long before the alexanders owned any property on that stretch of land. Now does that make me any more qualified than him or any of the other canidates to be the next mayor? I'd say that shows stability and love for the city and it's people. If the answer is no, then can we not hear anymore about him and his third generation speech? The above letter states that Mr. Alexander chose to live in San Angelo and that is why he's running for mayor. Well I'd say the same applies for all the canidates, they too live in San Angelo and all must love the city, with them wanting to work and get paid $50 a month. The letter also states that she has "heard" of the other canidates sounding like used car sales men. I'd say for actual conversations w/ them, that none of them sound like used car sales men. They all seem like men reaching for the same goal, all wanting to serve this great city of ours. They all seem like visionaries to me.

eBAY: SELLING HIGHLIGHTS
If there's one thing I've discovered since I started selling on eBay just 9 short months ago, it's that there really is no one right way. There's no science. There's no secret. Some things just sell and some things just don't. It seems that the real key is timing. Like everything in life: timing is everything. And selling on eBay is certainly no exception to that rule.

Building transit where we need it
Making Tracks to Torontonians examines the costs and benefits of the subway extension proposed by Toronto Mayor Rob Ford in December 2010, compared to the light rail transit plan that is already underway with funding on the table.
The subway extension would provide less service per dollar invested than the existing light rail rapid transit plan for Toronto, and wouldn't deliver transit service to the communities that need it most.

Organize a Drone Awareness Action
Download flyers and watch videos of previous actions.
This afternoon, December 9, 2013, two Yale Divinity students and a Catholic Worker were arrested as they peaceably remained at the Hancock Reaper drone base entrance on East Molloy Rd in De Witt, New York. They were attempting to deliver a citizens' Order of Protection on behalf of Afghan drone survivors. Since October 25, 2012 over 50 citizens have been arrested – and issued Court Orders of Protection — for protesting Reaper drone war crime originating at Hancock.
The DeWitt Town Court has issued such Orders at the request of the Hancock colonels. These Orders suppress the First Amendment right of all those arrested petitioning their government for redress of grievances at Hancock. The grievance is that Hancock's 174th Attack Wing pilots weaponized Reaper drones over Afghanistan killing civilians. One of those arrested, Mark Colville, declared that, "It's grotesquely ironic. These colonels got Orders of Protection against scrupulously nonviolent citizens opposing their violence. Yet, it is these colonels who deploy the killer Reaper robots terrorizing and murdering women, children and other non-combatants in Afghanistan."
Those arrested today are charged with obstruction of governmental administration, trespass and disorderly conduct: Creighton Chandler and Gregory Williams of Yale Divinity School and Mark Colville of Amistad Catholic Worker, New Haven, CT. Mark was also charged with criminal contempt for violating his October 25, 2012 Order of Protection. All three were released to their own recognizance by Judge Robert Jokl and will have to return to DeWitt court next week. ###

WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio — Two miles from the cow pasture where the Wright Brothers learned to fly the first airplanes, military researchers are at work on another revolution in the air: shrinking unmanned drones, the kind that fire missiles into Pakistan and spy on insurgents in Afghanistan, to the size of insects and birds.
War Without Humans: Modern Blood Rites Revisited
by Barbara Ehrenreich
July 12, 2011
For a book about the all-too-human "passions of war," my 1997 work Blood Rites ended on a strangely inhuman note: I suggested that, whatever distinctly human qualities war calls upon — honor, courage, solidarity, cruelty, and so forth — it might be useful to stop thinking of war in exclusively human terms. After all, certain species of ants wage war and computers can simulate "wars" that play themselves out on-screen without any human involvement.
US claims of 'no civilian deaths' in Pakistan drone strikes is untrue
July 18th, 2011
by Chris Woods
The Bureau of Investigative Journalism
Claims by President Obama's chief counter-terrorism adviser John Brennan that 'there hasn't been a single collateral [civilian] death' in Pakistan since August 2010 are found to be untrue today, following a major Bureau investigation.

A really funny movie. And everything in the classic Kevin James style. Paul Blart is a security guard at a big mall, somewhere in USA. He has a very calm job, not many cases to investigate. He is, frankly, a loser. But he gets a crush on a girl that is working in the mall. One night, right before closing time, robbers on skateboards enter the mall. They take the people that are in the bank at that moment to hostage. Paul is the only security guard in the mall right now. He has to save everyone. He does good, and get three of the robbers out of the game. It all ends with a car chase, and then he takes them under arrest. Watch this movie if you can!

Uber mediocre and not funny. Kevin James has yet to produce a laugh from me.

Perfect popcorn comedy - such little value, yet highly enjoyable at the time. Yes, the jokes are pretty lame, but it has enough sweetness and heart to make it worthwhile. A nice family film, just don't expect too much from it.

I thought this movie looked like hell from the trailer. Then when it became a blockbuster I got a little mad. Despite all of that I still rented the blu ray version of it one day at the video store cause nothing else was in. I'm actually glad I did. I really liked it. It's a nice lil comedy that entertains viewers of all ages.

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with "Paul Blart." I went in not expecting much but a silly comedy for kids and families, but what I got was one of the funniest movies I had seen that year. I honestly believe that Kevin James is disgustingly talented. He makes me laugh about the oddest things and you know that he was an associative producer so he had a hand in how the film came about. If for nothing else, see it for Raini Rodriquez, who is just plain hysterical!!!

Lyons, CO -- Planet Bluegrass gives thanks and announces RockyGrass Lineup for 2014. The planet says "As we gather with friends and family this week, all of us on Planet Bluegrass have never felt more thankful. A historic 500-year flood may have torn through our community 11 weeks ago. But that devastating event has only brought us closer together -- making us feel deeply alive and passionately united. On this Thanksgiving eve we've never felt so optimistic about our future, so committed to our mission of musical inspiration, and so thankful for the community of Festivarian Nation that continues to reach out with love and support."
Lyons, CO -- It's been two months since the historic flood devastated much of our hometown of Lyons. As the flood waters receded we vowed to rebuild Planet Bluegrass better than ever. On this two month anniversary, we're even more determined to make 2014 our most powerful summer of festivals in both Lyons and Telluride.
Lyons, CO -- The evening of Friday, March 29th, the Wildflower we begin their 2013 musical journey on Planet Bluegrass dancegrass-style with the CD release party for Whitewater Ramble. From high-octane bluegrass to wondrous songwriters to a just-announced finale show featuring bluegrass music virtuosos Rob Ickes & Jim Hurst, these 6 intimate evenings promise a magical introduction to the Wildflower festivarian summer.
Lyons, CO -- After a frantic December of ticket selling mayhem, we decided to give Festivarian Nation a peaceful January free from Notes and posts. Amid snowdrifts and relaxed bluegrass picks, we hope you found a quiet time to recover from sell-out stresses and begin piecing together summer festival dreams with your festivarian family. Maybe you even took some time watch this Del & Sam soundcheck or stream the new Steeldrivers record... Though we were outwardly silent, here in Lyons we've been hunkered down – talking with artists, sketching lineups, even writing a book. Today our silence ends. Meet the complete 2013 RockyGrass...
Lyons, CO -- Planet Bluegrass reminds us that as we settle into this autumnal lull between the lighting of our Sam Bush jack-o-lantern and the singing of Alice's Restaurant, we urge you to take off the fingerpicks, turn down the new Tim & Darrell album, and spend a few minutes right now crafting your vision of summer 2013. RockyGrass Academy registrations are now open and so are the lotteries for the Warner Field and Town Park campgrounds for the Telluride Bluegrass Music Festival.
Lyons, CO -- This Sunday evening (September 9) Planet Bluegrass will open their 2012 fall concert series with 2 favorites from recent RockyGrass and Folks Festivals at the Wildflower Pavillion.
Lyons, CO -- Ten years ago Yonder Mountain String Band launched their inaugural Kinfolk Celebration at the Planet Bluegrass Ranch. This year their annual celebration of community, camping, and musical mania returns for the first time in 9 years to Lyons, Colorado – a place Yonder guitarist Adam Aijala affectionately calls "one of our favorite music venues, period."
Telluride, Colorado -- For the past 38 years, the summer solstice has played the role of a significant ceremony in Southwest Colorado. Wide-ranging interpretations of the solstice have varied among cultures for centuries. From celebrations of harvest to spiritual observances, from festivals to feasts, it's the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere and marks the beginning of summer. For the small mountain town of Telluride, Colorado, the solstice symbolizes one thing: Bluegrass.
Lyons, CO -- Ten years ago Yonder Mountain String Band, already stars of the RockyGrass and Telluride stages, organized a celebration for their fans (dubbed "kinfolk") at the Planet Bluegrass Ranch in Lyons. The modest single-day event grew to two inspiring days by the following year, with camping and numerous musical kin sharing the Lyons stage.
Lyons, CO -- Planet Bluegrass sent us this announcement... "Dearest festivarian: It's time to get serious for a minute. No more easily-ignored pleas to scribble lottery dates on your calendar. The time for summer solstice action is now. Before your curious eyes get immersed in the single-day Telluride lineup (yes, it's below), stop and consider anyone you know who is still looking for tickets to Telluride Bluegrass... Maybe it's a pickin' buddy? Maybe it's the couple that camped next to you last year? Maybe it's you? Send them a reminder to enter the online lottery for single-day tickets right now. These are the only tickets left for the grand gathering of Festivarian Nation in Telluride; and the lottery closes this Thursday, February 9. Reminder sent? Great. Onto the good stuff...
Planet Bluegrass announced the historic 40th anniversary initial lineup for RockyGrass. The bluegrass music festival welcomes many of the artists who have shaped the festival for 4 decades – from bluegrass legends and pioneers to special collaborations to some of the younger artists who continue to push bluegrass in exciting new directions. It's been 40 years since Bill Monroe met with members of the Colorado Bluegrass Music Society to found the RockyGrass Festival (originally called the Rocky Mountain Bluegrass Festival). With the announcement of the preliminary lineup for the 40th RockyGrass, festivarians can already start to hear the mandolins and banjos echoing off the cliffs of the St. Vrain River in Lyons, Colorado.
/Planet Bluegrass/ When we saw a 50% increase in Telluride Town Park lottery entries back in November, we realized 2012 might be a little different... We knew that dedicated festivarians like you had drawn a yin-jo over the onsale date on your calendar months ago, so we intentionally kept a low profile – no lineup announcements, no press releases, no last-minute reminders. We tweaked our webserver to handle more than twice the demand, but still we were stunned by just how many festivarians showed up last Wednesday morning: more than 4-times more than ever before!

Mr. Freeze: How Julian Bayley Turns Ice Cubes Into Ice Castles
The walls of the Minus 5 Ice Lounge are blocks of ice, inlaid with signs that read "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" and "What Happens in Vegas...", both carved from ice. There's a Mandalay Bay sign (made of ice), the face of a woman winking seductively (made of ice), a 12-foot-long bar (made of ice), and walls adorned with abstract designs of multicolored ice. In one corner, an ice chapel beckons those impulsive and hot-blooded enough to get hitched.
It's 72 hours before the grand opening, and the bar is still unfinished—a cacophony of chain saws, belt sanders, and air compressors. In the middle of the room, nearly hidden under a black and purple snowsuit, Heidi Bayley is crouched over, chiseling small pieces off the "cushions" of a giant, round bench. Its 31 precut pieces are labeled like Ikea parts (round chair, back rest, piece A, piece B) and were designed to fit together right the first time, mostly. Bayley is just taking off some errant edges.
Over Bayley's shoulder, her father, Julian—cofounder of Ice Culture, the world's preeminent builder of frozen palaces—contributes an occasional bit of advice. "In theory, it works like Lego," the stout 71- year-old says. "Until the room changes."
That remark turns out to be prescient. A tall, lean, slacker-mogul type strides into the room, all tousled hair and sideburns. He's wearing expensive-looking jeans and an unzipped fleece embroidered with the words "The Coolest Experience". This is Craig Ling, president of the Minus 5 chain, and he's not happy.
Ling tiptoes melodramatically between the bench and Victorian-style couch to show how their arrangement will constrict mingling. Not only that, the bench is too big, taking up the space of 10 paying customers. "It's not going to work!" Ling says. He barks new orders: Turn the bench into a pub table and chair and move them from the center of the room to a bank of windows so people can see a bit of the casino floor below (and gamblers can see the party above). Frame out each window separately. Move the chapel. Replace the colored friezes with sculptures. Add crown molding.
Ling takes a breath, fog swirling around his lips. "And I want an 8-foot-tall statue of Elvis," he says.
For most contractors, such a last-minute remodel would be impossible. But this is Las Vegas, and the house never leaves anything to chance. Two weeks ago this space was a 1,200-square-foot walk-in freezer; today it's on the verge of being Sin City's most stunning new nightclub. Julian Bayley specializes in the construction of immodest frozen interiors. His company, based in Ontario, Canada, produces 280-pound blocks of ice and turns them into just about anything a client might want, from shot glasses to motorized rickshaws. Bayley has built arctic lounges and restaurants in Thailand, Miami, and (inevitably) Dubai, creating along the way the tools and techniques to make ever more ambitious ice castles. Total cost of Minus 5, Las Vegas? About $4 million, including the giant freezer that keeps the thing from melting, a discotheque's worth of LEDs (they don't heat up), and a banging sound system.
It all started with punch bowls. In 1969, Bayley sold his family's advertising business in England and headed across the Atlantic, planning to restart the company in Canada. He made it to Hensall, the country's white-bean capitol (population 1,000), where he decided that advertising was pretty dull. He'd been catering on weekends, mostly for fun and beer money; now it was his full-time job.
On a pick-up run to a food-supply warehouse, Bayley spotted a mold for ice punch bowls. He found out who made them and bought one for himself. Back then, ice sculpting was dominated by chefs and wannabe artistes with hammers and chisels, whose work melted midway through the bar mitzvah. Bayley began charging $120 per bowl; he'd ship them as far as Toronto and Detroit. "It just snowballed," he says. "Excuse the pun."
Trouble was, his customers started asking for more intricate sculptures—twin lovebirds in a giant heart is a popular one. Bayley signed up for a four-day ice-sculpting course at the Culinary Institute of America, but the class only confirmed his nagging suspicion that freezing your ass off in an icebox was for suckers. "There was no benefit to making the same thing over and over," Bayley says. "You still had to get in the freezer and carve it." He knew he'd have to figure out how to turn ice art into a commodity.
