VANCOUVER — By the time they meet up with Mantin, who is senior vice-president at Sands & Associates, which is a proposal administrator, trustee and bankruptcy firm, they're facing bankruptcy.
Consumer Protection BC has seen an exponential increase in calls about debt settlement companies like this since 2010, leading the agency to highlight the issue to the government in hopes they will strengthen debt collection laws in the province.
"We have seen a spike of more than 2,000 per cent in calls (about debt settlement) over the past two years," said Manjit Bains, vice-president of corporate relations at Consumer Protection BC. "This has been clearly an emerging hot issue over the past few years."
In 2010 they received eight calls while in 2011 and 2012 they received more than 210 calls, Bains said. The average British Columbian has $37,244 in non-mortgage debt, the highest in the country.
While none of the individuals who have been burned by this type of company who Mantin has worked with was willing to tell The Vancouver Sun their story, Mantin did provide some examples. He said one married couple, who had recently immigrated to Canada, found themselves with $88,000 in consumer debt. They signed up with a debt settlement company, agreeing to pay them 15 per cent of their total debt — about $13,000 — in return for a negotiated reduction in their debt, Mantin said.
After about six months, a portion of the wife's wages were seized and the couple ended up in Mantin's office.
Another example Mantin gave was a 70-year-old man with $17,000 in consumer debt, who was trying to pay that off while living on about $1,500 a month from Canada Pension Plan and Old Age Security. After paying about $2,000 to the company in fees, he ended up declaring bankruptcy.
The money made by bankruptcy firms like Sands & Associates, or by "debt pooling" credit counselling organizations is a percentage of the payments people make toward their debt repayment proposal or bankruptcy claim.
Debt settlement companies make most of their money a different way — through upfront fees paid by the person in debt. Sometimes these fees are collected — they could be as high as $3,000, Mantin said — and then the settlement company is unable to make a deal with a person's creditors. When that happens, they usually don't get a penny back, Mantin said.
"We're hoping to get some attention so that B.C. will finally change the regulations around debt settlement," Mantin said, adding that Ontario is in the process of changing its rules and Alberta and Manitoba did so last year.
In 2012, both Manitoba and Nova Scotia introduced rules that ban upfront charges by debt-settlement companies, set maximum fees that debt settlement companies can charge and require debt-settlement companies to be licensed. Alberta already had similar rules in place and now Ontario is contemplating the same.
Of course, Mantin only meets the people for whom debt settlement has not been a success.
Richard Cooper is chair of the Canadian Association of Debt Assistance, an organization that lists three members on its website: Cambridge Life Solutions, Canada Debt Settlement and Total Debt Freedom. All three are debt settlement companies.
Cooper says 75 per cent of his clients pay off their debts at a reduced rate within 36 months of signing up. He says debt settlement companies are the only companies advocating for consumers, while credit counsellors and bankruptcy trustees are acting at least partly on behalf of the creditors.
At his company — Total Debt Freedom — he charges a service fee of 16 per cent, which is paid monthly. When asked what happens if the creditors won't negotiate, he said, "creditors always, always yield in the hands of a skilled negotiator."
He said at his company if no deal is struck a full refund of fees is paid.
Ontario's government is proposing limiting fees to 10 per cent of the debt and banning upfront fees.
"You can't operate at 10 per cent, it's just not possible," Cooper said. "You can operate on a contingency basis, provided there's no cap on the fee.
He says that waiting seven months until there is a negotiated deal would mean he would have to increase the rate to 25 to 30 per cent of a person's debts.
"How am I going to pay my staff, my rent, my overhead and my telephones? Nobody can work for free," Cooper said. "(Ontario's) proposed changes are designed to strangle debt settlement businesses to the point where they can't offer services. We've seen that happen in Manitoba recently where they adopted the same rules as Alberta and ... it basically shut debt settlement out as an option in the province."
In the U.S., the Federal Trade Commission introduced a new rule in 2010 that prohibits companies that sell debt relief services over the telephone from charging fees before settling or reducing a customer's credit card or other unsecured debt.
"This seems like it's leaving B.C. as this exposed part of Canada where the (debt settlement company's) marketing budget is now being spent here because there is nobody protecting people from this," Mantin said.
He said B.C.'s lack of response is embarrassing.
"When you look at what other provinces have accomplished over the past 12 to 18 months to deal with this issue, B.C. stands out as a huge failure in protecting vulnerable consumers from being preyed upon."
B.C. Justice Minister Shirley Bond said she intends to enhance consumer protection on debt settlement.
"We recognize that under the current regulatory framework there are further safeguards that would eliminate excessive, upfront fees for which debt settlement companies may not be able to negotiate the large debt discounts they promise consumers," Bond said in a statement.
"My ministry is preparing proposed amendments to the Business Practices and Consumer Protection Act that will regulate debt settlement agencies with the intention of bringing these amendments forward in the near future.
"Any changes that B.C. may consider will require debt repayment agencies to follow specific regulations that protect consumers from harmful practices and would require a legislative change to the BPCPA."
But with an election in May and the legislative session ending March 14, it's clear that no changes will be happening anytime soon.
Leonard Krog, the New Democratic Party critic for the ministry of justice and the attorney-general, said he's surprised the government says it is studying the issue. If the NDP does win the May election, Krog would not promise any particular action on this issue.
"A New Democratic government is going to be interested in protecting consumers. What form that takes — whether its regulation or legislation — and where it fits on the priority list is the trick," Krog said, adding that there are other significant problems the government has to address. "As much as I'm sympathetic, I can't say this will be priority one on Day 1 by any stretch," Krog said.
Consumer Protection BC would support any attempt to strengthen the debt collection laws, Bains said.
"We believe there is a gap in the law and we are encouraging the strengthening of consumer protection law at this time," Bains said. "We understand that across Canada about half of the provinces are moving in the direction of regulating this industry, and we understand that is the intent of the B.C. government to regulate this industry as well."
Mantin says that as the other regions make it more difficult for debt settlement companies to charge upfront fees, the companies have increased their efforts in B.C.
"It has definitely intensified in B.C. over the past three months. I'm hearing more of the marketing and seeing more of the clients," Mantin said.
"There's not a week goes by that I don't see at least a couple of clients (who this has happened to) and sometimes it's more.
"We try to help them as much as we can, but we just wish there was something that prohibited them from ever getting into this situation."
Steps for debtors
For those feeling overwhelmed there are steps to consider based on the level of debt and how long it has been a problem:
• Credit counselling/debt pooling: Debt pooling companies are also known as credit counselling organizations — they can be either for profit or not-for-profit. What distinguishes them from debt settlement companies are two things: the way the fees are paid and the licensing requirements. They are required to be licensed by the province because they handle the consumers' money and their fees are paid out of the money a person in debt re-pays their creditors. If your financial troubles are in the early stages, you should start with credit counselling. The Credit Counselling Society is a non-profit organization, funded by grants and financial institutions, that helps people manage their debts. Their advice is usually free and includes creating a spending plan. Their website is www. nomoredebts.org.
• Debt settlement: Debt settlement companies are not required to be licenced by the province of B.C. because they don't handle your money. Consumers pay them a fee (usually 15 to 20 per cent of the debt) over the first several months of a contracted agreement and in return they will try to negotiate a debt reduction.
• Consumer proposal: A consumer proposal is an offer made to creditors to pay a number of cents on each dollar owed. A good starting point is 30 per cent of your debts, and 90 per cent of the time, consumer proposals are accepted. At least half of a person's creditors must approve a consumer proposal. Only a bankruptcy trustee can initiate a consumer proposal, and the trustee is paid out of the amount paid by the consumer.
• Bankruptcy: This is the last resort. To declare bankruptcy, a person must be insolvent, which means that even if they sold all of their assets, they could not cover their debts. Bankruptcy usually costs about $1,800 in trustee fees plus 50 per cent of your income over a low-income cutoff for 21 months. Sands & Associates' website is www.sands-trustee.com.

Serial killer. Born Pedro Alonzo Lopez in 1949 in Tolmia, Colombia. The son of a prostitute, Lopez grew up in a world of poverty and political violence. His mother kicked him out at age eight, forcing him to fend for himself on the streets. After being raped and practically starving to death, he ended up at a school for orphans.
By his mid-teens,
Lopez had left school and returned to Colombia where he took to stealing cars. He ended up in prison where he was brutally gang raped. He retaliated by killing each of his assailants and was released in 1978.
Following his release, Lopez claimed to have raped and killed at least 100 girls from various Indian tribes throughout the region. In 1980, while in police custody, Lopez revealed that he had performed similar grisly acts with more than 100 others throughout Peru and Colombia. Police were skeptical at first, but Lopez escorted agents to his burial sites, where they uncovered 81 bodies.
Though it is impossible to know exactly how many lives Lopez took, some guess the number to be more than 300. In late 1980, Lopez was convicted on multiple counts of murder and sentenced to life in prison.

Gluten-Free Flour Tortillas
© 2011 Thinkstock/Hemera
Gluten-free flour tortillas are best used when they're still warm. If they stiffen a bit upon standing, wrap them in a moistened paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds. They'll be good as new. Recipe can be doubled.
2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend of choice
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
1½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 teaspoons vegetable oil
½–1 cup warm water (about 100°F)
1. To make tortillas, place flour blend, xanthan gum, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and mix well. Add 4 teaspoons vegetable oil and stir to combine. Pour in warm water in a slow, steady stream, adding in increments and stirring to combine.
2. Press dough together with wet hands and divide into 6 pieces. Roll each piece separately between two sheets of plastic wrap until about 1/8-inch thick and 8 inches wide.
3. Heat a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet. Once the skillet is hot, place each raw tortilla flat in the skillet, one at a time. Allow each to cook for 45 to 60 seconds or until slightly charred on the underside. (You're better off under-cooking than over-cooking them. If you burn them, they won't be pliable.) Then flip tortilla with a large, heatproof spatula and cook for another 30 to 45 seconds. Remove from pan and place on a plate. Continue until all tortillas are cooked.
Each tortilla contains 176 calories, 3g total fat, 0g saturated fat, 0g trans fat, 0mg cholesterol, 537mg sodium, 34g carbohydrate, 1g fiber, 2g protein.

UNO takes on a nationally respected program, one that it has owned in the past, in a 3 p.m. game Wednesday at Wichita State.
Of course, the Mavericks and Shockers last met in 1970.
Wichita State, 2-6 all time and with a five-game losing streak against UNO, became one of the top Division I college baseball programs in the four decades since last playing the Mavs. The Shockers have made seven College World Series appearances and 27 trips to the NCAA tournament.
The University of Nebraska at Omaha is in its second season in Division I.
Wichita State, picked to finish second in the Missouri Valley Conference, is 6-4 after an 8-1 victory Tuesday against Oral Roberts.
Left-hander Cole Volkers is set to start for the Mavs against Zach Beringer. Each is making his season debut.
UNO, picked last in the Summit League after going 12-36 last year, is 0-3 after playing Texas-San Antonio, Stephen F. Austin and Penn State at last weekend's UTSA Classic.
Brett Bass went 5 for 11 (.455) and Tyler Fox threw five scoreless innings in his first career start to highlight the Mavs' opening weekend. UNO also didn't commit an error.
Tyler Baker leads the Shockers with a .412 average, three homers and eight RBIs while Casey Gillaspie, a Millard North grad, is hitting .314 with three homers and nine RBIs. Returning All-Valley selection Johnny Coy is hitting .233.
Mavericks alter weekend schedule
UNO altered its weekend schedule for the North Dakota series, coach Bob Herold announced Tuesday.
The Mavs host North Dakota for a doubleheader at Omaha Westside on Friday at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., followed by Saturday's game at noon.

Nice day for a championship game and it looks like a pretty packed house in Frisco as the Bearkats get the ball to start the game. Nice touch pass over the middle for 30+ yards to start the game! It's been a long three weeks of waiting but let's play for a title!
CAA is represented in the title game after all...by the officiating crew.
Penalty halted the SHS momentum and then the Bison defense asserted itslef. Good punt by the Bearkats though and NDSU starts inside the 15.
Promising start to drive for the Bison but foolish late hit penalty pins them back inside the 20. SHSU looking for good field position but a 68 kick turns the tables and the Bearkats will start inside their own 20. Largely a sea of orange at Pizza Hut Park, but both teams are well represented in the stands.
There are some games where the "uniform matchup" helps make the game ever more appealing to watch. This is not one of them. By the way, it's warmer up here in NJ than it is in Texas. Doesn't happen a lot in January.
Quarterback keeper on 3rd and 2 and the Bison defense stops Bell short of the first down. Another great punt, this time from SHSU for 52 yards and a block in the back penalty will push NDSU back even farther. Not seeing a lot available for Sammy on offense right now. Bison D came to play.
Jensen getting all kinds of time to throw, but the Bearkat defense forces the first turnover of the game! Ojuri fumbles on a 2nd and 10 run. Sammy ball at the Bison 41.
Inches short on 3rd and 2. First decision of the game here for either head coach. Think you have to go for it versus a 48 yard field goal. That's the decision and stoned by the Bison D! Great stand by North Dakota State after the turnover. That's the kind of effort needed to win a title.
Nice throw on an outside slant by Jensen. Almost broke free. Followed up by a pretty throw to the tight end for 29 and down to the Bearkat 26. Bison on the move.
Jensen gets tattooed as a 3rd and 6 play, but just gets the throw off for a first down at the 7. Up the middle for 5 on first down. Bison knocking on the door. Stopped short inside the 1 on second down. Big third-and-goal coming up. Ojuri stuffed again! Fourth and goal. Interesting decision for coach Bohl. Does he take the points? Yes he does and a 19-yard field goal gives the Bison a 3-0 lead as the first quarter is just about over. Big stand by the Bearkat defense to keep them out of the end zone. Field goal isn't a bad result there.
Possible interception dropped on first down on a deep attempt from Sammy but Flanders comes back for 5 on second down. Bearkats could use a first down here and Sincere keeps it and picks up a fresh set of downs.
Flanders stuffed on a draw on 3rd-and-16 and the Bearkats will punt again. Bison defense looking awfully tough so far.
Jensen forces a throw with a defender in his face and can't get it over Jenkins in the secondary. 23rd interception of the season for Sammy and the second turnover of the game already. Good field position for the Bearkats. Need to capitalize.
First Jensen gets pounded on 2nd down and then the only guy pressuring the punt gets a hand on it. Great field position again for the Bearkats. Can they do something with it this time? Reviewing the punt to see if SHSU touched it after the block. Play stands. Start at the NDSU 48.
Flanders finally starting to find some space. Three separate runs for big chunks gets Sammy a first down at the 6. Can the Bearkats punch it in when the Bison couldn't? Flanders stuffed twice. Bell rolls out and hits receiver in the hands at the goal line but dropped by Ryan Wilson! 24-yarder good and we're tied at 3! Another good stand by the Bison defense.
Jensen back in the game after missing third down on the last drive. Apparently very stiff on the sideline, but he played through the flu in the semis and it's a title game so he'll keep playing. Almost another turnover as a near pick on a deflection. Bison offense out of sync a bit and Sammy will use their second timeout to stop the clock before the punt with 2:04 to play. Great 25-yard return on the kick and the Bearkats are in business again at the Bison 38.
Huge third down throw by Bell. Williams spins away and almost breaks free but a shoestring tackle stops him around the 20. Bell throws a jump ball in the end zone by Diller can't quite bring it in in traffic. Incomplete on second down as well with 50 ticks left before halftime.
31-yarder good for a 6-3 Bearkat advantage with 41 seconds left in the 2nd quarter. We'll see if the Bison can get a decent return and try to make something happen before the break. COach Bohl could decide that he doesn't want to push things, though, if Jensen is still stiff.
Bison try to get something going but Jensen is really off and Bearkat defense is playing aggressively right now. Stopped on third down and Sammy uses last timeout with 14 seconds left to force another punt. Bearkats sellout for the block but another booming kick should take us to the half. And it does as SHSU takes a knee.
Intersting first half with the defenses seeming to be in control for the most part. Two turnovers and the blocked punt for the Bison really were the difference in the 6-3 lead. If Jensen can't get right at halftime, North Dakota state will be in trouble because the offense really looked ragged for much of the second quarter. NDSU controlled the run of play early but the goalline stand by the Bearkats really seemed to halt the Bison momentum and SHSU played a lot more confidently after that. Top two scoring defenses doing their jobs for the most part. Sam Houston seemed to be finding some openings on offense as the half progressed so we'll see if they can build on that in the second half.
stupid Loopy Holdz in halftimr........ shutup and lay in bed after your meds

Awesome! Thanks for answering so quickly. :D

Awesome! Thanks for answering so quickly. :D
thanks, arsheesh
great tutorial
Really awesome tutorial Arsheesh...though I have to admit I was pulling my hair out with Wilbur, mostly trying to get rivers where I want them. Just wanted to show what I was able to do. First, I started with a CC3 map I made for some folks on G+ just for kicks. I wanted to replicate this map, but give it a more realistic feel.
Attachment 54142
Obviously, you can tell its a CC3 map a mile away.
Using your tutorial, this was what I was able to do:
Attachment 54143
I'm really impressed with the results. Obviously, I'm still not done. For example, I'm going to have to manually add some rivers in the dark "blob-ish" swamp area in the south. The trouble I was having with Wilbur is that it wasn't making good rivers...it kept making these terribly short "wisps". My solution was to go back to Gimp and tone down the Land Clouds layer (reducing contrast) and doing a little more sculpting on the areas I wanted to force rivers. The only place it really didn't work was in the south swamp area, and the southeast peninsula where you can see a bit of a rut moving nw to se. Also, I probably should have spent more time beefing up my mountains, they look a little sparse and thin.
Anyway, I wanted to personally thank you for taking the time to make such an incredibly detailed tutorial. Any chance we can get your techniques on labeling? LOL, that's my next step.
Yeah getting rivers to correspond to a previously existing map is one of the trickiest things to do when using Wilbur. The method you described is pretty much how I handle it, but it can be very time consuming. I'm really glad that the tutorial was helpful to you, your results turned out very nicely (great work!). As to labels, it seems to me that someone here once wrote up a walk-through on this, but darned if I can find it. However I think RobA has in in one or two of his tutorials discussed how to place text on a path (to make curved text) in GIMP and in Inkscape. I've thought about creating a sort of basic 101 level "how to" that describes things such as this and how to create icons and such. However sadly my plate is full at the moment and I don't think I'll be able to do pursue this for some time.
Arsheesh, I'm trying to develop a specific technique for making cliffs using your method. I think it's working ok, but wanted to see if you've got a better technique. First my starting experimental picture.
Attachment 54172
Just a succession of gray colors in the general shape of a cliff, with a difference cloud layer mixed in.
Import into wilbur and run noise, fill, and precipiton results in this
Attachment 54173
Ignore the scraggly edges...just playing around. I think it looks ok, but the hard drop off causes weird color anomalies in the gradient map, i.e. the hard green line. I think I can utilize this for my mapping project, but wanted to ping you or anyone else on a different or better technique?
Oh...forgot to add, I used both the BUMP layer and an added emboss layer, both set to overlay. Played around with the transparencies until I got the "pop" I wanted. Merged them together when I was happy with it. On hindsight I think its perhaps a little too harsh.
I think I can implement this into your tutorial flow during the blending phase. Instead of blending directly onto the LAND BUMPS layer, use a transparent layer on top to do the blending. Then, you can cut a 'hard edge' on your cliff area, with a distinct light (top of cliff) and dark (bottom of cliff) transition. I'll see if it works.
I recently had to make a plateau in one of my maps and I used a method almost exactly similar to the one you've employed here. Just added an additional layer, rendered fractal clouds in it, used the curves function (under "Colors") to lighten the clouds, isolated the boundary areas of the plateau and deleted the rest, and then blended the edges of the plateau a bit. So yes, I think you are on the right track here. Be curious to see an update of this.
Thanks Arsheesh. I'm still trying to figure this out. I've redone the map about 2-3 times, trying to get it just right in Wilbur. Here's the latest iteration:
Attachment 54250
No matter how hard I try, the swamp lands in the south start looking too hand drawn. Oh well...
My mind is blown at the moment...I think I'm just going to go with it, and start putting in the towns, etc.
Well perhaps the swamp-lands look a bit hand-drawn but I don't take that to be a problem. I think the map is really coming along nicely. You are doing great work.
The critical part of getting rivers where you want them with Wilbur is to have a mask with the rivers baked into it. Starting with your initial CC3 map, I made a few masks:
Attachment 54252
Attachment 54257
Coast with waterways
Attachment 54253
Attachment 54254
The basic process was:
1) Load Coast as select, add 100 to altitude, then add a mound 50 high.
2) Load coast with waterways and add 100 to altitude.
3) Repeat for Hills and mountains.
4) Reload Coast as a selection to bound the erosion effects.
5) Now add noise with a value of about 25.
6) Fill basins and incise flow.
7) Now 25ish rounds of precipiton erosion to smooth things out.
A few more rounds of steps from 2 through 7 (you may want to adjust the maximum values to get slightly different effects).
Attachment 54256

1 Year Symphony Warranty from the Date of Purchase |
Flipcart service is Excellent.Their customer care people are very helpful,the packaging & delivery are the best.
This cooler is, at best, a personal cooler,nothing more than that.Symphony says it cools a 350 Sq ft room but this is just a dream & a big fat lie,the air throw is not more than 3 feet,even if you use it as a personal cooler the oscillation has no on/off switch to keep the cooler focused on you,this is a major drawback,only a small opening in the front to pour in water & also to put ice cubes,so it takes a long time to fill the tank,the customer service of Symphony is pathetic & worst,they just forget you after you buy their cooler.
Just ok,I repeat, just OK if you use it for only personal use as a cool air fan & able to keep the doors & windows open & the ceiling fan should always be on, else don't ever buy this cooler,never,better to buy a bigger desert cooler like Jumbo,winter or sumo for a little bit of cooling or the very best option is to buy an air conditioner if one can afford.
Its first time i'm buying\using a cooler.So no comparison.
For this price this might be the best cooler u could buy,(i searched a lot in internet before ordering and i could not find a better one for this price).
Don't expect too much.Its not going to cool a whole room like an ac.You can use it as fan,giving cool wind.That's all.
Sound is there while running, even though its OK.
We can adjust the wind direction,up and down.Automatic swing is also there.
Design is good.
Free trolley is good.
Flipkart service is very good.
This is the best cooler for use of a single person or 2 people. You can place it in front of bed & enjoy your sleep.... Best you can get at this price.. Very effective cooling.... Good air throw... Ideal for medium room... I repeat if your expectations are too high then opt for jumbo size cooler...
And............ Flipkart delivery was better than the best.. Flipkart is excellent... Good delivery service..!!
As mentioned by other customers, this cooler is priced well but as far as it 'cooling' capacity is concerned, I'm not very happy.
I sleep in a small room, well ventilated. The only thing impressive is that it consumes very less water. I fill it up completely at night & it lasts all the way till 10-11am in the morning (i'm not a early morning person ;))
Overall, not bad but i'm sure Symphony or other brands have models that cool better. Flipkart delivery & service is awesome as always. I'm & will remain a regular customer !!
Nice & Descent product by symphony. Air blower is very good.Suitable for small room. Able to cool the room quickly if room is closed. Power consumption is very less...less than normal fans.
A must buy for small room to heal the summer season.
Again flipkart delivery is awesome....Got the delivery within 48 hrs...Flipkart Rocks...

PET bottles shake up cocktail-mix market
Jim Tanner president of Jus-Made LP explains the packaging procedure as follows:The liquid product is cold filled using an 18-head Regal Series rotary filler from Pack West Machinery Co. The containers are nitrogen purged by a Model LCI 400 purge system from VBS International Inc. An induction liner is sealed onto the bottle mouth by means of Enercon induction sealing equipment.
Then the bottles are capped via SK6000-SP capping equipment from SureKap Inc.. The contract packer then uses a Model EDT-100-TB long sleever from ShrinkSleever Inc. division of Aesus Systems Inc. to apply the preprinted full-body polyvinyl chloride shrink labels supplied by MPI Label Systems providing tamper evidence and strong shelf impact. These labels which shrink snugly over the cap rim to achieve tamper evidence are perforated to enable easy consumer opening and color coordinated to match the product inside the container.
Accumulation and sorting tables are supplied by E-Pak Machinery Inc. Overall packaging speeds are approximately 100 containers per minute and the finished packaged cocktail mixes have an 18-month unrefrigerated shelf life.
Mission accomplished
Studio One Eleven director Scott Jost commented "Plastic was a requirement but to have simply replicated the glass shaker in PET would have ignored the opportunities a blank-slate approach afforded us. By rethinking the package from the ground up we were able to provide a solution that looks like nothing else on the market while also eliminating the need to transfer the mix to a separate shaker or attach a separate 'sugar rimmer' package to the container. This is a complete integrated self-contained drink kit that provides high visibility on the shelf."
El Paso Chile president Park Kerr adds "We have received a phenomenal response from Target our exclusive retailer for this packaging. Target was seeking colorful interesting packaging originality to generate increased sales in the cocktail-mix category. And this package met the objectives. Our Cocktail Chemistry line was introduced into selected markets in July 2005 and the consumer reception has been very favorable."

The YBlock displacements were 239, 252, 272, 292, and 312. The highest performance motors went into Thunderbirds and some even got supercharged. It had unique stacked ports, intake over exhaust. 1957 was the highpoint for YBlocks, they declined as Ford designed freer breathing motors. It was a good bracket racer, making lots of torque. It did not like sustained high rev operation, so was not a good circle track racer. After 59, the Yblock was mostly a truck and school bus motor. In 63, the Yblock was abandoned because the 260-289-302 series was much better. $2500 isn't too bad for a running Effie if it hasn't been hacked too much.

Hmm... one of those little bozomobile rollers - a foot tall and a foot wide, stuck completely outside the fenderwell - might give me some extra room in the bed. But I might as well not have a spare at all then, since I'd be too embarrassed to be seen driving on it. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Sep 1997 21:32:52 -0000 From: "Kevin Fowler" Subject: Re: Hello !!

The Prime Minister and Culture Secretary have criticised the £450,000 pay-off given to George Entwistle, calling it "hard to justify", as the BBC saw senior news staff sidelined in the ongoing crisis.
The former director-general, who resigned on Saturday, has been awarded a full-year's pay after bowing out only 54 days into his reign, despite normally being entitled to only half that figure.
But BBC Trust chairman Lord Patten defended the sum, saying it was "justified and necessary" to allow a clean break and avoid lengthy delays. The settlement was discussed in Parliament in a further day of drama which saw two senior figures - BBC director of news Helen Boaden and her deputy Stephen Mitchell - step aside from their posts temporarily.
The corporation also put in place a new "chain of command" to oversee all of its news output in the wake of a botched Newsnight report broadcast on November 2 which, in addition to his handling of the Jimmy Savile scandal, led to Mr Entwistle's downfall.
Acting director-general Tim Davie began trying to regain confidence in the broadcaster and said his role was "to get a grip of the situation". And he pledged to personally apologise to Lord McAlpine who was mistakenly implicated in a sex abuse scandal in the bungled Newsnight broadcast.
Mr Entwistle stepped down at the weekend after a dismal display as he tried to defend his leadership of the corporation. He has been given 12 months' pay - the amount he could have expected if he was sacked - rather than the six-month figure he was entitled to under his contract. The extra money is equivalent to the income from 1,546 licence fees.
In the House of Commons, Culture Secretary Maria Miller described it as a "reward for failure" but said ultimately it was a matter for the BBC Trust to decide the figure.
Earlier, it was announced Ms Boaden and Mr Mitchell had stepped aside, although the BBC said this was not as a result of the Newsnight programme this month. Instead, they were in response to the "lack of clarity" surrounding who is in charge while the Pollard Review is making its inquiries. This review - led by former Sky News chief Nick Pollard - is looking into an earlier decision to shelve a Newsnight investigation into Savile's sexual abuse.
Iain Overton has also resigned as editor of the Bureau of Investigative Journalism over its involvement with the Newsnight programme which broadcast allegations linking a senior Tory to child abuse. Overton had tweeted before the start of the programme that Newsnight would feature an item, which the BIJ worked on, about a "senior political figure" who was said to be a paedophile.
The BBC's head of news gathering, Fran Unsworth, and Ceri Thomas, the editor of the Radio 4 Today programme, are to fill in for Ms Boaden and Mr Mitchell temporarily. Karen O'Connor - a former deputy editor of Panorama and Newsnight - has also been drafted in as acting editor of Newsnight. The BBC also announced it was overhauling the "chain of command" in news in response to a report by the director of BBC Scotland into the failings of the recent botched Newsnight programme.

text: Latest Post: Started By: Rank: Category crime and "safety"3/5/13 Well it's over. I hope your proud of your police department. Evidently driving 70+ mph in a 30 mph zone without red lights or siren is following procedure. I did not know that the grand jury was the end of punishment phase because it was conviened before the evidence was in. The punishment is two weeks off and a "reprimand". The sad thing is it happened more then once. Nobody called to report this rogue. If you had he would possibly have been "dismissed"and two lives would have been spared. But it is what it is. New Ulm does indeed deserve it's reputation as a hick town with bad German genes.(thats right, that is how the rest of the state feels about you). Anal cowards. I will never step foot in your "godly" town again because I know the NUPD will be gunning for me. Good riddance. Your creepy as hell. Member CommentsHarryTheHendersonOh you poor crazy lady... I feel bad for everyone involved but what is in the past is in the past and while you feel you can change the world with your rants about how bad New Ulm is or the Police Department is or this officer or the chief... it is doubtful that your cronic and repetive posts will do any good but only make you look more out there in left field by yourself. You say that you won't step foot into town... so far I don't see a problem with that. Posted 365 days ago. DanaLeeWichmannIn case you can't figure out what follows the key is to start at the bottom and go up from there. Ha ha ha. No, I can't be embarrassed. Sorry. As you know, these things can't be edited or I would simply have not used the "d" word. Who could have guessed. Must just be another "New Ulm"thing. Posted 370 days ago. DanaLeeWichmannOh he-double hockey sticks. Oooookay then. And there aint darn thing you can do about it. Geeeeeez Posted 370 days ago. DanaLeeWichmannStill no comments? Cowards. I guess this is just my,"blog"then. Remember that corny movie,"Billy Jack"? I'm going to get the rogue cop fired, prosecuted, and shamed. The chief of the department will have a letter of reprimand in HIS file. And there aint a*****thing you can do about it. Posted 370 days ago. DanaLeeWichmannUpdate: IT'S NOT OVER! Ever had a fish on the line and you fight it and fight it but after a while (in this case almost two years) your line goes limp? Well all of a sudden I realize it's still hooked and the fight continues. No way this is over untill I decide it's over. In case you think this is about money forget it. I have refused to take it (that would be $133,000.00) No this is about getting the fish in cooler. Posted 371 days ago. Post a Comment |
