Verizon comes to its senses, gives up $2 "convenience fee"
The entire statement is reproduced for you here:
December 30, 2011
Verizon Wireless has decided it will not institute the fee for online or telephone single payments that was announced earlier this week.
The company made the decision in response to customer feedback about the plan, which was designed to improve the efficiency of those transactions. The company continues to encourage customers to take advantage of the numerous simple and convenient payment methods it provides.
"At Verizon, we take great care to listen to our customers. Based on their input, we believe the best path forward is to encourage customers to take advantage of the best and most efficient options, eliminating the need to institute the fee at this time," said Dan Mead, president and chief executive officer of Verizon Wireless.

"You can continue to send Verizon your money, without having to pay them an extra $2 for the privledge."

At least they came to their senses. To have to pay, to pay someone, is insane. If anything they should motivated their customers with rewards.
Take U.S. Cellular for example. They offer their customers 3-5% discount for automatic paperless billing.
If VZW offered their customers discounts by paying in their "preferred" method than that would be a much better incentive that scaring them with an additional cost.

Nothing like the possibility of an investigation by the FCC to make VZW come to their senses. But great spinning by VZW - we are customer-focused. If they were so customer-focused, they wouldn't have applied the $2 charge in the first place....

Would this had to do with the rumors about companies having to make up in order to keep the 199 price tag on the iPhone? Just curious to hear what you may have to say?
10. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5954; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
It could be. The problem with government investigations is that once they start, they tend to take on a life of their own, with one thing leading to another. The cost to VZW of putting a team of attorneys shadowing the FCC investigators along with the cost of having to respond to any findings the FCC investigators probably would have made, would far outweigh the added revenue from the $2 surcharge.
It was time for VZW to cut its losses. But great spinning of the decision.

Possibly that and I think also them just reimbursing themselves for their recent spectrum purchases and any legal fees being recouped due to regulator legal action.
Plus, I also think there's the possibility they just thought to themselves, "It's two dollars! Who's gonna notice two dollars?!"
Verizon Wireless has what, +/-100 million subscribers? If half paid in that method incurring the $2 fee that's $100 million extra revenue per month. Even if only a fifth of subscribers did this, they'd still rake in $500 million extra revenue per year. All for doing nothing.

it is quite possible Proto. It seems to me that companies are bleeding money in carrying the iphone; to an extent.
my company doesnt even pay me commission (in terms of data plan) for the iphone to make up their cost in the fact that we have to carry it! We cant offer instant rebates on their products.
The cheapest place to find ipods is Costco because they let them shave off a few bucks for buying in bulk. Costco has also admitted they dont make money them (they just draw in more members to buy them cheaper).

Ya thats what we thought Verizon!!!! Unless you want some "Government Investigation" going on . That would really set you straight.
7. bossmt_2 (Posts: 437; Member since: 13 Oct 2009)
Knew this would happen. It's all about testing the water, piss off enough people and they won't do it. Hell most of their subscribers won't know about this in the end.

"Announced earlier this week?" I thought the that info was leaked.
Verizon are bastards, but then again so is AT&T, and Sprint, and whatever will be left of T-Mobile USA by the end of next year.
11. protozeloz (Posts: 5381; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
Both leaked and announced
24. email17070 (Posts: 5; Member since: 22 Dec 2011)
there will be MORE Tmobile then you 'wirelesscon' can imagine and comprehend, lol, especially 4 billion richer, LOL,
9. WirelessCon (Posts: 309; Member since: 11 May 2010)
Oh yeah, because AT&T couldn't buy T-Mobile there will be lower prices. First thing Verizon did was try to raise prices. Thanks, that duopoly busting is REALLY helping the consumer.
27. ILikeBubbles (Posts: 305; Member since: 17 Jan 2011)
no one said it would lower prices, it's just keeping them low. if at&t did get t-mo whats to keep at&t and Verizon from cutting a deal behind everyone's backs? im sure they'd find some way to sort of kind of price fix in a legal way and prices would rise from there.
12. jjnbbills12 (Posts: 18; Member since: 30 Dec 2011)
Some credit card companies charge for making a payment with a debit card so why the big deal. You could pay by check without any fees. I for one was hoping this would happen. I am getting tired of the financial system messing everything up. If they did not charge fees than it would have never crossed the minds of VZW who is the one that pays for it. I feel that if a person has to take your payment because you don't want to do it online or the IVR you should have to pay. If you call in for anything you can do yourself with a little effort then you should have to pay. If you don't understand how to use a computer or an IVR system please send your phone back. This does not include anyone that is not able to use a computer or IVR.
19. Whateverman (Posts: 3233; Member since: 17 May 2009)
That just it! The fee was for using the exact same self help options you are talking about and VZW encouraged customers to use all the time. No, it's time for all the nickle and diming BS to stop. Their profits are high enough already.
13. Mando0316 (Posts: 2; Member since: 28 Dec 2011)
"At Verizon we take great care to listen to our customers."
Really, then why isn't there much feedback regarding 4g outages? All I see is a statement saying that 4g may be out but voice and text still work. I'm sure there are plenty of concerns fielded to Verizon when there is a 4g outage but I see no response that shows they listen to calls for improvements. Listening to customers or avoiding government backlash?
14. Sniggly (Posts: 7182; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
Consider the numbers involved. Even if only half of the customers Verizon has made a payment each month with one of the fee-required methods. 50 million people each paying 2 dollars would result in 100 million a month or 1.2 billion a year in extra revenue. Makes perfect business sense.

Power to the people...greed is driving this chain..but so far....chase...wells fargo..bank of america...netflix...and now verizon just to name a few have all heard the customer.....good job!
16. CRICKETownz (Posts: 980; Member since: 24 Oct 2009)
what's the purpose of this? is this the electric company now? i'm not a fan of autopay for any service so to get penalized for opting to make a one-time payment...i don't understand.
17. InspectorGadget80 (Posts: 6737; Member since: 26 Mar 2011)
And you guys complain bout how bad AT&T is. Glad I'm not with Verizon with their over price 4G phones
18. letsb4real25 (Posts: 21; Member since: 28 Dec 2011)
Well personally, my HTC Rezound costed $.01 at amazonwireless.com. Bought two of them ;-)
21. Whateverman (Posts: 3233; Member since: 17 May 2009)
No, AT&T is still the worse. Vzw on it worst day is still 10 times the carrier att is. Hopfully im wrong and that has changed some, but their own customers keep rating them dead last...not a good sign. And I never buy phones directly from VZW or any other carrier. Amazon, Wirefly and many other retailers make it a no brainier to buy from them.
23. networkdood (Posts: 6326; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
AT&T charges 5.00 to pay with a live person. 1cent deals from AMAZON rule the airwaves.
20. lubba (Posts: 1311; Member since: 17 Jan 2011)
over zealous, over confident. Just because they're the number one carrier that they can do anything they want. If anything, in sure they got reported to the FCC and didn't want to risk oversight of their business practice.
22. lubba (Posts: 1311; Member since: 17 Jan 2011)
So they retracted the $2 fee.
25. email17070 (Posts: 5; Member since: 22 Dec 2011)
Looks like verizon tried to pull a 'bank of america' $5 debit card fee, and look what happened to it,,, POOF!! GONE !! in a instant!
26. Joshing4fun (Posts: 1054; Member since: 13 Aug 2010)
Glad i left Verizon. Won't miss them. They couldn't care less about their customers.
31. networkdood (Posts: 6326; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
You will find that none of these companies truly value their customers business. Just go with the best coverage/price/phones and do the best you can.
32. CRICKETownz (Posts: 980; Member since: 24 Oct 2009)
I wouldn't go that far b/c most customers' definitions of "value the customer" starts w/the word free & ends w/the word free. customers expect a business to perform at a high level w/a cheap tag which is unrealistic. reliability isn't cheap I guess...
30. networkdood (Posts: 6326; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
Verizon will find other methods to exhort money from their customers - I do like their double the data deals, though.
33. thephoneguy92 (Posts: 191; Member since: 29 Dec 2011)
The way I see it, you can look at it two ways. On one hand, you can say Verizon is greedy for charging you an extra 2 dollars to pay your bills, and that would be a fine way to look at it. But on the other hand, and as others have pointed out, Verizon would get millions of dollars while an individual only had to pay $2 extra a month, and that charge is completely avoidable. Now if Verizon had that extra money, and chose to put it towards the network strength, I would gladly pay a measly $2 extra for an improved cell phone provider. While many people think it's the principle of the matter, I can sympathize with you, but at the same time, it could be for a good cause.

Argentina, 2008, 98 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subjects: Coming of Age, Foreign, Romantic ComedyLanguage: Spanish English Sub-Titles
MUST END Thursday, April 1
35mm presentation - Gabriel Medina's wonderfully crafted debut feature is a fresh, visually innovative, and often hilarious glimpse into the lives of some very offbeat, yet human, characters.
Thirty-something Luciano Gauna is odd. A failing screenwriter in Buenos Aires, Luciano lives in an almost intense state of paranoia, afraid of everything from STDs to even his doorman. When his childhood friend Manuel, a very successful TV producer, returns from Madrid with his stunning new girlfriend Sofia, his world is thrown into a near desperate funk. He discovers that Manuel has unflatteringly modeled him as the lead character on a successful Spanish TV show called The Paranoids, which Manuel is now bringing to Argentina.
When Manuel leaves on a business trip to Chile, Lucian's remaining grip on reality unravels when he's left alone with Sofia and her alluring charm.

Atletico title hopes take a hit
The Primera Division title race took another twist on Saturday as Atletico Madrid suffered a shock defeat away to struggling Almeria after rivals Real Madrid put four past Villarreal.
Jose Antonio Verza curled in a stunning goal - surely meant as a cross - 10 minutes from time after Almeria's stubborn defensive display had driven Atletico to distraction on a night of pure frustration.
And things got worse five minutes later when goalkeeper Daniel Aranzubia - perhaps at fault for the opener - blundered in a big way, fluffing a back-pass and then fouling Jonathan Zongo to concede a penalty, converted by Verza, and seeing red.

Dean Koontz's Frankenstein Books: The TV Show
Dean Koontz's five megapopular Frankenstein novels are being adapted for television. Deadline reports that TNT is developing Frankenstein, based on Prodigal Son, City of Night, Dead and Alive, Lost Souls, and Dead Town. (There was a TV movie way back in 2004, but that was based on just the first book.) The show and books are set in modern-day New Orleans and follow Victor Helios, a.k.a. Dr. Frankenstein, now a 200-year-old millionaire mad scientist who has to wage war against some of his terrifying creations. It's also about cops and serial killers, because apparently everything in the world has to be about cops and serial killers, even things about 200-year-old mad scientists.

Tummy Tuck While Awake?!?
"Should you consider having your tummy tuck awake? According to an article by The Plastic Surgery Channel a physician in San Antonio, TX is advertising an awake tummy tuck. No general anesthesia is used, just a light sedation and local anesthetics. In fact, you can make conversation with the doctor while she's cutting open your abdomen! The article mentions that she's not a real plastic surgeon, but trained in Family and Emergency Medicine. Scary!
While local anesthetics can work for smaller procedures, to perform a complete tummy tuck under local anesthetics is crazy. General anesthesia is meant to save people from experiencing the excruciating pain of having your body cut open."
From The Plastic Surgery Channel Online
A non-plastic surgeon attempting to perform a tummy tuck is terrifying, but one that is trying to do it without anesthesia is just insane! :eek:
But even if it was a board certified plastic surgeon doing this, it's still completely nuts! Almost anyone would freak out if they looked down and saw their abdomen cut open in the middle of surgery, even if they're sedated. This is just a plain bad idea for anyone to attempt!
I agree with you, la_angel. Interesting concept, but a scary one as well.
One key question raised by the idea of local anesthetic for a tummy tuck is "How small is the operation?" Some surgeons do mini tummy tucks that aren't as invasive and are actually done on an outpatient basis. Some patients aren't good candidates for going under all the way during surgery and sedation might be their only alternative. An epidural might possibly be used to block pain to the lower half of the body. Not everyone has the same options - and a qualified cosmetic surgeon will know what to recommend based on a patient's medical history and the specifics of the improvement being sought.
Of course, having any procedure done by someone who isn't actually certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery is extremely risky. It's even more questionable when the non-specialist is recommending something (like awake abdominoplasty) that isn't commonly done in the plastic surgery world.

What is your connection to San Diego Plastic Surgery? Please disclose this info, as it is the law!
Also, your post has nothing to do with getting a tummy tuck while awake. Please stick to the topic, instead of posting general guidelines and info for advertising information.

Catalyst 10.5 For Linux Is Out: Nothing Exciting
Published on 26 May 2010 04:51 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
44 Comments
AMD has just put out their Catalyst 10.5 Linux driver update. Unfortunately, there isn't anything too exciting in this release.
Officially, the only new feature in Catalyst 10.5 for Linux is "early look" support for SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 Service Pack 1. There are, however, resolved issues pertaining to Hybrid CrossFire, kernel panics on hibernation, and suspend-and-resume fixes.
There is already some
initial driver feedback
(download links and release notes can also be found in these posts) on the Catalyst 10.5 release with mixed thoughts -- some are reporting improvements for some games under Wine while others continue to run into problems with XvBA/VA-API and the

Bio and Links
I give permission to anyone who wishes to use the photos I have taken freely. The headstones were placed by family members in honor of their loved one. I claim no ownership and consider my effort to be for the public good. Photos are for those who may not be able to visit their family members, freinds and genealogy purposes...
I welcome updates and corrections to the memorials I have control of. Please submit updates for a memorial using only the edit tab on that person's memorial page, others may not be accomplished as fast.
I will transfer to family members within the Find A Grave guidelines if you have the same goals I've stated. Please submit your request using the edit tab and tell me your relationship to the person.
The Find A Grave guideline for transfer requests says: "Transfer requests should be for direct relatives within four generations, this would be your siblings, parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents." If you are related and I am not, I will be happy to transfer to you if you explain your relationship and accept the continued effort to complete the memorial.
My goal is to document all my memorials by getting obituaries for each and every internment, a photo of their stone, a picture of them, Death Certificate and connect them to their spouses, children and parents.

Fred Leroy James was my grandfather, he married my grandmother Cora Belle Bacon before he married Wilma Hope Henegar. I would very much like to update his profile on Find A Grave & include his children & grandchildren by his first wife, Cora Belle Bacon. I would leave the second wife information alone. It is strange looking at this information as if my mother & grandmother never existed. Thank you for your time.

Among the 60 bungles Outlook records in its Feb 1 issue, one refers to the offer India got for a permanent seat in the UN (Security Council) in 1955, which Nehru refused. I'd raised this through a parliamentary question in the 10th Lok Sabha (1991-96) of which I was a member. Despite my best efforts, I wasn't provided details and the question was disallowed. I'm now requesting you to please pursue this issue and unveil the facts with regard to the offer of a permanent Security Council seat in the UN and refused by the then prime minister. The issue has now acquired immense importance and relevance, as India has been struggling and begging to get a permanent seat in the UN Security Council for a decade now. The role of China in this regard, keeping the background in view, is also quite amazing (and amusing!). B.C. Khanduri, Dehradun
Outlook could also have included the blunder Indira made during the Simla Agreement—not taking up on Bhutto's offer to part with their 'Kashmir' in exchange for 90,000 PoWs. Bharat Trivedi, on e-mail
Deriding Anbumani Ramadoss as moral policeman for asking cinestars to shun smoking scenes is absurd. Also items 35, 36 and 51 were completely irrelevant and seemed to have been included just to make up the number; instead some other 'worthy' blotches could have been added. V. Pandy, Tuticorin

Library communicates with blogs
Web logs easy to update, viewed via Internet
By ANNIE BASINSKI Tribune Staff Writer
This morning in the South Bend Tribune, SJCPL received some nice press in the form of an article about our blog, which last week underwent a change from two seperate blogs to one BIG one!
"Blogs ranging from personal to political are turning up everywhere on the Internet -- from Howard Dean's presidential campaign blog to Newsweek's "MarthaWatch." Michael Stephens, head of networked resources development and training at the St. Joseph County Public Library, started "blogging" last year after he learned about blogs, or Web logs, at a computer and library conference. He had visited blogs for his own personal use and decided to introduce his library to them.
"Blog was the buzz word at the conference," he said. "People are using blogs to keep library information current and to promote library material." Like Web sites, blogs communicate information via the Internet. Blogs also often display links to other Web sites and have dated postings -- sometimes with commentary -- similar to journal entries written by the blogs' authors.
One difference between blogs and conventional Web sites is that blogs can be updated more easily through blog publishing software, so information can be changed faster and more frequently.
Web logs allow bloggers to communicate instantly by using software programs such as iBlog, which powers SJCPL's blogs.
"It really is an efficient way to deliver content because the programming is done automatically," Stephens said.
Last May, St. Joseph County Public Library added a Book Blog and Sights and Sounds Blog to its Web site.
The blogs, created and maintained by bloggers Joseph Sipocz, head of collection development, and Julie Hill, head of sights and sounds, list titles of best sellers, newly ordered books, DVDs, videotapes and CDs and provide commentary on recent library acquisitions.
"A blog has a diarylike feel and is usually in reverse chronological order," said Stephens.
The library's blogs include summaries of books and media and have links to reviews and authors' and artists' Web sites. Links to photos, excerpts and other media can also be found on the blogs....."
Take a look at the SJCPL Lifeline: All the News that's Fit to Blog. I was inspired by KPL Librarian David King at CIL who said our users don't want to go to different places for content. The new SJCPL blog will include all the Book Blog stuff, the AV info and much much more.
We have also moved on from iBlog -- which gave out on me at CIL -- and into Movable Type! We also moved to a directiory at LISHOst.org from a .mac account.

With the furious rise in cybercrime, well maintained and audited network firewalls are a critical line of defense. However, firewalls are apparently spinning out of the control of IT, at least according to a recent survey by Tufin Technologies, which makes software for automating security processes. Given the source you are free to take the survey results with a grain of salt, but if there's even a modicum of truth to the survey, it points to some real problems.
Firewall change management is a sticking point
For starters, 67% of the 100 network security professionals surveyed, all of whom are involved in firewall management and auditing, believe their change management processes do or could put them at risk of a breach. And some of them, 28%, are spending an inordinate amount of time crafting rule changes, from several hours to several days.
But it's not helping, as 85% reported that up to half of their rules have to be changed again later because they weren't designed correctly.
Surviving a firewall audit
Firewalls, of course, come into play during audits for compliance with regulations such as SOX, PCI and the like. So you'd think these folks would know something about the audit process, but results here are mixed. Many of the respondents (41%) have no way of knowing when a firewall rule needs to be recertified or decommissioned while another healthy chunk (43%) manage that process manually.
Similarly, nearly half the respondents (47%) locate redundant or overlapping rules manually, but that's better than the 20% who have no way of locating them at all.
Given all that, how do these folks survive audits? Increasingly, apparently, they cheat. As Tufin puts it:
Perhaps the greatest indicator that the problem is reaching critical mass is that 22% of the sample knew of someone that cheated on an audit, citing lack of time as the main reason – up from 10% in Tufin's April 2010 survey. Also disturbing is how many organizations don't audit their firewalls at all – almost a quarter of the sample (23%) has never conducted a firewall audit.
Other reasons for cheating on audits include the parameters of the audit being irrelevant to the business, cited by 30% of respondents, and concerns that the network security team would look bad, also cited by 30%. That latter 30% might want to consider how the security team is going to look if the company suffers a security breach, which audits are intended to prevent, after all.
Solving the firewall management problem
Tufin's solution to the problem (surprise, surprise) is to employ its tools to help automate the firewall management process, so employees don't have to spend an inordinate amount of time tracking rules. Such automated procedures also generally improve accuracy as compared to manual procedures.
If you'd like to learn more about how to keep your firewalls updated against the latest security threats, as well as in compliance, contact the security experts at Carousel.

Encyclopedia Dubuque
The successor of the DUBUQUE AND MCGREGOR RAILROAD, the Dubuque and Minnesota was charted so that it could reach northward to Winona and Mankato, Minnesota. In 1871 the road was renamed the CHICAGO, DUBUQUE AND MINNESOTA RAILROAD. The line had reached from Dubuque to La Crescent, Minnesota. In 1872 a branch was completed from Turkey River Junction to Garber, Iowa--a total of thirteen miles.
High construction costs and the Panic of 1873 placed this railroad and the CHICAGO, CLINTON AND DUBUQUE RAILROAD into receivership. After renamings and reorganizations, the two roads were eventually formed into the CHICAGO, CLINTON, DUBUQUE AND MINNESOTA RAILROAD COMPANY in 1878.

Aggregators are computer software or websites that can bring together information from multiple online sources. For example a news aggregator will collate information from other news sources or a review aggregator will collate reviews of films or products.
RSS: Really Simple Syndication
Whenever you see the icon above this means that you can subscribe to news feeds from this particular website or blog. You can read these feeds using an RSS Reader, examples of which I've given below. The reader will aggregate all of the feeds you subscibe to and present them as headlines and an into to the new information. The advantage of this is that you don't need to keep checking for updates, the reader will collate them for you and you can then read them at a time convenient to you. Common Craft have created a RSS in Plain English video that helps to explain this further
iGoogle is one of my favourites. Here you can view a variety of different tools all on page. You choose what you want to add. This might include Google reader, the news headlines from the BBC or newspapers of your choice, a calendar, clock(s) GMT and international time zones, currency converter, dictionery and much more.
Pageflakes allows you to create a social personalised webpage often referred to as a dashboard. Here you can choose to bring together a variety of useful resources. These may include for example a calendar, the weather, BBC newsfeed, RSS feeds, bookmarks.
Netvibes is another dashboard that allows you to aggregate feeds of your choice on to one page.
Other Aggregators….
News.me finds the best stories from your Twitter stream and sends you a daily digest by email. You can also follow other people's digests. There is the option in settings to create a Read Later bookmarklet and to send any tweets you favourite to this list.
NewsCred is a quick way to gather news on topics of interest to you. Search for your own topics or select from world, politics, technology, business, sports or entertainment. Then share your newspaper via Twitter or email.
Summify aggregates the most popular news within your social media streams. You can choose to connect Twitter, Facebook and Google. The content which has been retweeted, liked or favourited is aggregated together into one stream for you to read and share if you wish to.

Community/clinicAL PSYCHOLOGY PROGRAM
Thank you so much for your interest in the M.A. program in Community/Clinical Psychology at Norfolk State University. As you may well be aware, recent changes made by licensure and certification boards across the country have had direct implication for training programs in the health professions. More specifically, educational requirements for Licensed Professional Counselors (LPC) have become more restricted and focused on counseling. Given this, the department of Psychology at Norfolk State University has chosen to review our program curriculum and determine the future direction of this program in an attempt to offer a degree that is relevant and meaningful. This means that effective Fall 2012 this program has suspended admissions indefinitely. There will be no applications accepted for this program until further notice.

The question is whether we can make the playing field more level in a way that is fair to everyone. Note that this is actually two questions: (1) Can we actually increase positive traits such as intelligence, creativity, and self-discipline by spending money on interventions that improve parenting, the school systems, the livability of neighborhoods, and employment opportunities? and (2) Can we fund these interventions in a fair way? Social progressives answer both questions in the affirmative. They believe it is fair to use the wealth of those who are well-off to help impoverished parents and to improve dangerous neighborhoods and faulty school systems. Thus, we have the recent cry to "Tax the Billionaires!"
Tax opponents have doubts and reservations about the efficacy of social programs and the fairness of taxes used to fund such programs. Welfare too often enables complacency and idleness, they say. Money funneled into public school systems does not really improve education, they claim. And what is fair about involuntary redistribution of wealth from those who have earned it through hard work to those who are not earning it? Not necessarily heartless, fiscal conservatives favor helping the unfortunate through voluntary charity.
The question of how well social programs actually work is difficult to answer. Researchers are working hard to answer that question, but I would like to focus on the main topic of this post, fairness. Liberals might say that much of the wealth possessed by the affluent was not earned by hard work. Rather, it was inherited from rich parents, acquired by striking deals with politicians, multiplied through interest and exotic financial instruments, or obtained by other methods of wealth acquisition that do not seem fair. One could argue that if you did not really earn your wealth fairly, then it is not unfair to redistribute it. Furthermore, some claim that fiscal conservatives are greedy and that we cannot trust them to voluntarily donate to charity. We have to force them to help the disadvantaged by taxing them.
But let's get back to the question of whether the rich have acquired their wealth fairly in the first place. Do our current laws about inheritance, political donations and lobbying, and permissible financial transactions really reflect fairness? My suspicion is that they do not, but I think that a more definitive answer will require some research. Five months ago I presented a paper that described a research program for better understanding economic fairness. I would love to get more feedback on it.
As important as I think it is to gain a better understanding of economic fairness, I think that we will need far more than research on fairness to better our current economic situation. Even if we could come to an agreement that it is fair to tax the rich, this will not be enough. Even if you took all of the existing wealth of the rich-not just tax them, take all of their wealth-it would not fund what the U.S. government spends in one year. We have some serious cash flow problems in the United States. The compromise that was finally reached to avoid default calls for reducing future deficit spending by a trivial amount over 10 years, which means that the already massive national debt will continue to grow. How long can this continue? Do we need a radically different alternative to the current market-based economic system?

Truth and consequence of firearms mental health registries
Mark Wilson/Getty Images
U.S. President Barack Obama signs a series of executive orders about the administration's new gun law proposals on January 16, 2012 in Washington, DC.
Yesterday, President Obama announced two dozen new initiatives to deal with gun violence - several of which focus on mental health. In his remarks he said, "We will make sure mental health professionals know their options for reporting threats of violence - even as we acknowledge that someone with a mental illness is far more likely to be a victim of violent crime than a perpetrator." His administration wants to strengthen the effectiveness of mental health registries used to stop firearms sales to potentially violent individuals.
It's a debate that's familiar to psychologists and psychiatrists. Many question the effectiveness of registries and worry about the unintended consequences. A 2009 report from the American Psychiatric Association puts it this way: "Questions have also been raised about the possible counterproductive effects of [such] registries. Persons with treatable mental disorders may delay or avoid obtaining treatment because of concern about adverse consequences should their conditions become known to others or because they are unwilling to forfeit their right to use firearms for legitimate purposes (e.g., hunting), especially in regions of the country where recreational firearm use is deeply embedded in the culture."
Meanwhile in Colorado, the surviving widow of a man killed in the Aurora theater shooting has filed a lawsuit against the psychiatrist who treated the alleged murderer - for failing to report him as a danger to others.
How good are mental health professionals at assessing the risk of violence? What is the line between patient privacy and the government's right to know about potentially violent individuals? How effective could a perfect mental health registry be? Would it have stopped previous mass shootings?
Dr. Steven K. Hoge, M.D., Director, Columbia-Cornell Forensic Psychiatry Fellowship Program; Member (and former chairman) of the Council on Psychiatry and Law, American Psychiatric Association; Member of the 2006-2009 Work Group on Gun Control and Individuals with Mental Illness, American Psychiatric Association

My friend played a trick on me at work with this key. While I was at lunch, he used print screen to capture the image of my desktop, and he pulled it up and maximized it.
When I got back, I tried to click on the icons on my desktop, but nothing was working. Frustrated, I asked my friend, and when he started snickering, I knew that he had something to do with it.
He showed me the trick so that I could use it on other coworkers. It's a good way to have a little bit of fun at work without actually doing any damage!

LSM and LSM(R) Histories
When the writing project was developed for the Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships (DANFS) the parameters for this series were designed to cover only commissioned Navy ships with assigned names. If the ship was not assigned a name it was not included in the histories written for the series, Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships.
The Ships History Branch initiated the DANFS writing project in the 1950s. At that time the branch had a very large staff of historians to research and write ship histories. The volumes were published in alphabetical order and the series consists of:
Volume 1--A and B
Volume 2--C through F
Volume 3--G through K
Volume 4--L and M
Volume 5--N through Q
Volume 6--R through S
Volume 7--T through V
Volume 8--W through Z
Volume 1 Part A (update)
Ships with only a designation, such as LSM, were not included in the DANFS series. This was not because they didn't contribute to the mission of the Navy and defense of the country but because of the parameters set up in the 1950s for writing the DANFS.
The LSM and LSM(R) histories were not included in the DANFS for the above reasons. To help further the history of LSMs the Ship's History Office scanned a history of these ships that had been compiled by Captain James B. Birindelli, SC, USNR (Retired). Because of staff limitations (the Ships History Office now has only 3 historians) the history was scanned in Adobe Acrobat and is not word searchable. Federal Regulations Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, requires all documents that are posted on Federal Web Sites to be word searchable. Consequently, all we can offer is a copy of the CD-ROM that has the history of the LSMs and LSM(R)s on it in Adobe Acrobat.
Please send a letter requesting CD SH-0068 and a $10 check made payable to the "Department of the Navy" if you are interested in obtaining a copy of the CD-ROM with the history of the LSMs compiled by Captain Birindelli. The address is: Naval Historical Center, Ships History Branch, 805 Kidder Breese Street, SE, Washington Navy Yard, DC 20374

1st Quarter 2014 Shareholders Report (click here for full PDF version with Financial Supplement)
Dear Shareholders:
OCB Bancorp's first quarter 2014, provided a notable start to the year. The Bank is maintaining very good capital levels, necessary to weather a storm, and increased loans and deposits, which enable us to continue expand earning opportunities. These positive factors show a continued growth and success, key to moving the Bank forward. This continued success is due to the valued support of our shareholders, customers, and staff.
During the first quarter, the Bank reached a record $100 million in outstanding loans due to a continued focus on growing our loan portfolio. Increasing loans allows us to better allocate liquidity to higher yielding assets and, therefore, generate better earnings.
Total assets increased to $148 million, approximately $9 million from the same period last year and about $2 million since the beginning of this year. As the industry continues to adapt to regulatory changes, it is evident that growth is needed to offset the higher regulatory burden and related overhead. Deposits fueled our growth and increased by $9 million, year over year, to finish at $132 million at the end of March 2014. Earnings for the first quarter of 2014 were $101 thousand compared to $26 thousand for the same period last year, a 288% increase. With continued loan growth and stable overhead, we feel our 2014 net income will improve over the prior year on both a pre and after tax basis.
We recently hired Dave Sabedra as a commercial lender to assist in expanding our footprintsouth to Oxnard and Camarillo. Mr. Sabedra has over 35 years of local lending experience andhas a compelling, long-term client base. We feel strongly that his business acumen and breadth of contacts and clients will be a great asset to the Bank in coming months.
The Bank continues to focus on improvement on all levels and increased performance to provide better returns to shareholders. We feel the Bank is trending positively on all fronts.
Our annual shareholder's meeting will be held on Thursday, May 29th at 5:30 p.m. at the OjaiBranch office. Please join us.
We thank you for your loyalty and we are always available to answer your questions. Contact Dave Brubaker, President/CEO, at the office located at 402 W. Ojai Ave, Ojai CA 93023, email@example.com or 805-646-9909.

Updated: November 9, 2011 12:54PM
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Wednesday offered four to six weeks of paid maternity leave to pregnant city employees — even as he restricts a costly policy that has allowed workers to stockpile many vacation days and cash them out upon retirement.
Under former Mayor Richard Daley, the city did not offer paid maternity leave.
That has forced pregnant women to cobble together sick days, vacation days and unpaid family leave and to return to work before they're ready.
On Wednesday, Emanuel changed that.
Pregnant city workers will now be offered four weeks of paid maternity leave after routine vaginal births and six weeks off after C-sections.
Their spouses or partners on the city payroll will get one week off with pay. Adoptive parents will get two weeks.
The new policy is confined to nonunion employees. For pregnant women who belong to unions, the change will have to wait until new contracts are negotiated.
The new policy was crafted by Human Resources Commissioner Soo Choi, who is pregnant and stands to benefit.
"What I'm trying to do as mayor is bring the city into the 21st century," Emanuel said. "... We're now gonna have a family and medical leave policy that makes the city of Chicago, I don't want to say just competitive, but equal to what's going on in the private sector.
"It's gonna help us recruit and maintain a work force," he said. ".... It's not only a good business practice, but it's in line with who we are. ... It's the right thing to do for your employees."
The crackdown on vacation time would allow city employees to carry over no more than five vacation days from year to year, sharply reducing the number of unused days that could be cashed out upon retirement.
Currently, a long-term employee could retire at the end of 2012 with a check for up to 75 days of unused vacation. The new policy would limit that same employee next year to 50 unused vacation days and to a maximum of 30 unused days as of 2013.
The Sun-Times reported that Daley's chief of staff, Ray Orozco, walked out with a $81,451 check for unused vacation days — $5,143 more than former police Supt. Jody Weis got for cashing out his 64 unused vacation days.
"We've been leaving the taxpayers with the tab while everybody else was, in my view, gaming the system," Emanuel said of the city's lenient vacation policy. "... A number of employees used it as a back door. It was unfair to the taxpayers, and people were using it as another way to compensate for their salary, which is not how it was structured."
