Is there any reason you're limiting yourself to two brands? I can recommend Ricoh and Brother.
If I had to choose between Kyocera and OKI, that really is a toughie as I wouldn't use either (personally).
Your thoughts please. Please explain your reasoning.
Is there any reason you're limiting yourself to two brands? I can recommend Ricoh and Brother.
If I had to choose between Kyocera and OKI, that really is a toughie as I wouldn't use either (personally).
There is good reason for this. I am considering a managed print solution and the two in question have approached me recently.
By no means is this set stone, i feel I have a reasonsibility to justify my decisions so I am gathering as much info as I can. At this point I am only interested in kyo and oki.
We use Ricoh presently for our colour lasers. Can't fault them. For mono we do already use kyo, so from experience we have fully road tested them. They have proved to be cheap enough, reasonable running costs and reliability has been good too.
Kyocera - Very sturdy, ceramic drums. Last a very long time.
OKI - A little more expensive, almost bulletproof. Very easy to repair.
Personally, I'd use OKI.
Oki Printers - what are they like
I've read that, and I know exactly where people are coming from.
No idea on what Kyocera are like, but on a fully managed solution, Oki's ES range has been great for us.
Ricoh all the way - tiny device drivers (compared to our ones for Kyocera) and very very smooth intergration with our Windows 7 PCs.
Kyocera - we have around 50 B&W printers and have used them for over 13 years. They are very sturdy and find support very good. I am a reference site for them (reference needs updating). We replaced all our printers around 2 years ago. If you would like a chat PM me.
We use UTAX (Kyocera) photocopiers and they have been great even when abused by the photocopy whores.
No idea on the technical side but may i be the first to say... FIIIGGHHHTTT!!!!!!
How about Olivetti! they are rebadged Konica Minolta colour and rebadged Kyocera mono machines. Best of both
We have a pair of Kyocera FS-C5350DN and they're awesome, print quality is superb, i can force the kids to print duplex to save paper and the fixing them side of things isn't a hassle when it's managed as they'll come and do the repairs (as it happens we've had them 2 years and never had a problem *touch wood*)

It's true. Paris Hilton has been arrested This poor girl has had a rough September... first her album sales, then being denied entry at Bungalow 8, now a DUI.
The officers observed that Paris Hilton exhibited the symptoms of intoxication. A field sobriety test was conducted at scene, and the officers determined she was driving under the influence," Isabella said, reading a police statement. Hilton was booked on suspicion of misdemeanor DUI and released, he said.
I first heard about this on the news this morning (yea, I was up at 6am - lucky me!).

Top Local Tips for Hue
general tips airport transfer can be conveniently done using a regular taxi at the airport at a very reasonable cost.compare the cost with hotel transfers with prices ranging from $18-30. Tours are available in reasonable rates with guides from Mandarin Cafe instead of hiring your own guide, car, boat. negotiate and agree on prices and terms of service before engaging services as there is a prevailing tendency to take advantage of the tourists vulnerability.

Perfume River The Perfume River is an attraction that divides the city. One bridge with colour-changing lights is considered "romantic" by the locals. In fact, the river park really seems to be a dating spot, with night spots and river view park benches and lots of young couples. The Citadel is of course a must. In general this seems to be a laid-back town, with far less pressure on tourists from hawkers and such to part with their money, certainly compared to Hanoi or HCMC.

In the closet or not?
A new figure about the number of gay people in the UK has been greeted with scepticism by some who say it doesn't add up, so what is the problem?
Are you gay? Very probably not, if a recent figure from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) is to be believed. It says gay, lesbian and bisexual people make up just 1.5% of the British population.
Such a small percentage made it a big story, with the figure making headlines in many national newspapers. Some were surprised and questioned it. Gay groups in particular greeted it with scepticism.
The figure, say critics, is far too low. After all, when civil partnerships were introduced the government said homosexuals made up between 5% and 7% of the UK population.
Another much-used statistic - this one attributed to Alfred Kinsey, the father of sexual behaviour analysis - puts the figure at 10%.
So why the discrepancy? Some critics point a finger at the methodology used by the ONS. In several newspapers it was reported that the survey had been conducted on the doorstep, with the ONS turning up without prior notice. Critics argue people are reluctant to talk about their sexuality with a stranger on the doorstep.
But the ONS says this wasn't the case. The 450,000 people involved were chosen through random sampling and were then sent a letter asking if they wanted to take part. If they did a date was set for someone to visit or interview them over the phone.
Each member of the household was interviewed separately using question cards and asked a series of questions on a whole range of issues. The ONS had informed them about the nature of the questions beforehand. Not everyone was asked about sexual preference, says the ONS. Some participants were too young, for example. In total 247,623 people were asked and 238,206 gave a valid response.
The question about sexual perception and the way it was asked was, of course, very important. The ONS worked for three years in an effort to get it right. It asked: "Which of the options on this card best describes how you think of yourself?" The options were heterosexual, straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual and other.
The way people were able to respond was also important and explained to all participants in advance. Each person was asked the same question, but shown a different question card with a unique number next to each preference. It meant anyone trying to overhear the answer could not tell which category the respondent had selected.
The ONS says this method reduced the number of refusals and "don't knows". The results show nearly 20% of those who say they are gay, lesbian or bisexual are married and currently living with someone of the opposite sex.
"We're quite confident that the estimate we have is an accurate estimate of self-perceived sexual identity," says Stephen Hicks from ONS.
So why was last government estimate put at 5% to 7%? The ONS says one reason for the difference is that the latest figure is for sexual perception, not behaviour - two different things.
"Someone may engage in sexual behaviour with someone of the same sex but still not perceive themselves as gay," says a ONS spokeswoman.
It's also hard to judge the reliability of the previous figure, says Mr Hicks. This is because they are based on a number of studies that asked different questions, used different methods and different samples in different countries. It's a weakness the original report acknowledged.
The other widely-quoted study came from the infamous Professor Alfred Kinsey. The 10% figure is derived from his two seminal works: Sexual Behaviour in the Human Male and Sexual Behaviour in the Human Female.
He interviewed several thousand men and women in the United States between 1938 and 1952 and found that 13% of the men and 7% of the women were "almost exclusively" homosexual.
But Kinsey's methods have also been questioned. Professor Julia Ericksen from Temple University in the US has studied his work.
"He didn't believe in survey sampling and he was quite antagonistic towards it," she says.
Instead he collected samples in order to record as much variety in sexual behaviour as possible. His interviewees were mainly married college students and members of social clubs.
When he felt he needed to meet more working class people he went looking for them in prisons, believing, says Professor Ericksen, that "most working class people spent some time in prison."

- Listen to Wesley Stephenson's report on the difficulties with calculating sexual identity in populations on BBC Radio 4's More or Less, by clicking the link below
He also used to hang around outside public toilets at Penn Station in New York, a place where gay men were known to meet. He would intercept men who remained in the toilet for an unusually long time and persuade them to be interviewed.
Professor Ericksen says his sample technique cannot be used to give an indication of the behaviour of the population as a whole.
So does this mean the ONS figure is a better estimate of the lesbian, gay and bisexual population than previous attempts? Possibly. If you compare the ONS work with studies that asked similar questions, its findings are not unusual, says Professor Ericksen.
But, the question itself might be too narrow, she also argues. The ONS asked about sexual identity. Researchers say there are two other elements to sexual orientation: sexual behaviour and sexual attraction.
Professor Ericksen says studies in the US have shown that when you ask about all three in the same survey, sexual identity gets the lowest response. For example, there are men who have had, or have desired, sex with other men, who do not consider themselves to be gay, she says.
"If you really want to get a good grasp at same gender behaviour, you really have to ask all those questions and they didn't do that," she says. "It's not surprising that they got a low figure."
Below is a selection of your comments
Being a gay woman, I know several others that would deny being gay if asked by someone outside the gay community. So many people don't think it is anyone else's business or live in fear of being outed. However, this attitude helps to perpetuate the myths and stigma and could prevent government taking us and gay issues seriously. It's a Catch 22 situation. Fear stops people being open, but until we can be open society will continue to discriminate and stigmatise.
In addition to issues of confidentiality and comfort with a stranger (and the problem of implied judgement that is a well-known issue with all face-to-face survey methods, and may lead to false reporting), there are two further serious flaws with the ONS approach that this article fails to notice: first, their question used a single set of favoured terms for sexual orientation imposed by the designers, rather than allowing respondents to describe themselves in the terms with which they personally identify; and second, the question implied by its design that sexuality can be pigeonholed into neat unitary categories, failing to take account of the possibility that an individual's range of sexual attractions and behaviours might vary along a scale from exclusively different-sex to exclusively same-sex.
Asking, "Are you gay?' is a bit like asking, 'Are you fat?' Everybody has their own interpretation. I know plenty men who sleep with men regularly but would never identify themselves as being gay.
Does it really matter what the proportions are?
Sexuality is a continuum. Few people are purely "strait" few people are purely "homosexual" and everyone else is bell curve sexuality. People of the world, relax.
This society is obsessed with classifying people. A person is a person and that's the only thing that matters. I don't see the point in this kind of survey that only wastes public money which should be used in more important things.
The gay community in particular, and liberal organisations in general, do not like the ONS survey results - so not surprising they are tryng to rubbish them.
Also the fact that 2.2 million Brits, 6.7% of the population, are members of just one gay dating website...
"In the closet or not?" is the salient question that studies approximating the 'gay population' fail to acknowledge to any great degree. We may live in a 'liberal' society, but I stand by the rule of thumb that for every out gay person there is at least one closeted person.

Two articles highlighting the increasing secrecy of the US Gov't and of the Defense Department in particular.
Secrecy News reports that the Dept of Defense Inspector General's new policy is
"Not only will classified information be banned from the web, as always, but so will all other information that has not been "specifically approved for public release," as well as "information that is of questionable value to the general public."
Secrecy News points out that although few of us wish to curl up at night with a DoD IG report, journalists and public accountability groups find them extremely helpful in identifying fraud, waste and abuse in our military that might otherwise be tolerated by an overworked Congress whose members live in terror of being "weak on national defense" by questioning DoD expenditures.
The Washington Post article cover other cases where information that could not possibly be of interest to terrorists (like the Energy Task Force members and minutes), but is of vital domestic interest is being removed or kept hidden from public view.
Sometimes lost in all of the ink about secrecy and erosion of civil liberties under President Bush is that nearly all Presidents since Wilson, and including President Clinton, have helped to expand what many people call the "National Security State."
Loss of information should not be a left/right issue -- it's a matter of basic democracy.

2 basil hydens
1 allspice liqueur
1 cynar
4 drops cranberry bitter
Lemon twist
Serve in a whale's anus.
I am enjoying my cocktail. A lot. I think I am going to call it the Vernal Equinox. The pic is an old one; I've been working on this cocktail for a while. Tonight it is Petruchi Spanish Vermouth in place of Dolin and Cocchi, and really, using Calvados instead of Laird's Bottled in Bond is a BIG difference:
1.5 oz. Busnell Vieille Réserve
1.25 oz Petrucchi Sweet Vermouth
0.25 oz St. Elizabeth Allspice Dram
one barspoon 1:1 simple
I think the Pegu Club is a great, great cocktail. I'm glad that you enjoy it.
I read Morgenthaler's post about the Blood and Sand, too. I am totally perplexed, so I look forward to when you return home and to Le Lion so that we can gain a better understanding. I also don't have any particular rancor about Morgenthaler's Amaretto Sour; his alteration doesn't alter the fundamental nature of the drink. I think mine is better, but that's just preference. I note in his video that he thought it would be great with George T. Stagg (and its astonishingly high proof), so I will try that sometime since I have a bottle of Stagg and it will only take a little bit.
None of the major brands are better than Canada Dry; if you see a small brand, try it. I think that's the best we can do unless you have a list of what your grocery stores carry. Some stores have a few more cocktailian ingredients wherever they have the sour mix. That's how I first discovered Fever Tree.
Excellent. That's nice; my life is such that most of my friends are far from where I live, so I can't share my bar with them; my local friends aren't into spirits (except my boss, and that's a whole different ballgame), so I don't really get to share my bar with anyone but my father and gf. It's a little sad for me.

4 roses limited edition small batch 2011

Elijah Craig 12 year
knob creek single barrel
not pictured- 2 bottles of Pappy Van Winkle 15 year
tito's (anything better is really just wasted on me)
bacardi light (same as tito's, anything better is wasted on me)
canadian club
I love a French 75, however I prefer the "Brooklyn Beauty" http://crepesofwrath.net/2012/02/01/the-brooklyn-beauty/
At the moment I am drinking my take on the Vesper Martini.
2 oz Stoli Blue Label (100 proof).
3 oz Hendricks Gin
1/4th oz Lillet Blanc
A pinch of quinine powder
All of that with a large lemon peel and served ice cold.
angel's envy is interesting, in a good way. it's a mellow bourbon and very sip-able. you get the port flavor right away in the nose and in the palate. it really brings out the vanilla, maple and dried fruits.
the limited edition small batch four roses are great if you can find them. they're recently becoming ghost bottles in the same way as the van winkle line and the buffalo trace antique line. i picked up 2 bottles of the 2012 since it was so good. the limited edition single barrels are great and i love the fact that four roses has different mash bills and yeast recipes that you can (hopefully) find.
i think that's what makes AE interesting. it's not a traditional bourbon, it's bourbon for non bourbon drinkers. my girlfriend called it a "girl's" bourbon which i think could be a very true statement. it's light and fruity, and while not bold or rye heavy, it tastes interesting and is very approachable, but i don't think it lacks a depth of flavor at all, it works a different part of your palate as far the usual bourbons go. it's too bad the cask strength version wasn't widely released. i think the increased ABV would carry the flavors much better, but i think it's still a very good bourbon.

Denver comedian in round two of America's Got Talent

Woman attacks artwork: It was one of those stories guaranteed to get Colorado into the national spotlight. On October 6, Kathleen Folden, a fundamentalist Christian from Montana, acting on her religious zeal, attacked a print of "The Misadventures of the Romantic Cannibals (pictured below)," by Enrique Chagoya, which was on view at the Loveland Museum. Folden felt the depictions of Christ in it were sacrilegious, as did many others caught up in the overheated political climate that had focused negative attention on the piece.
But the show that included the Chagoya didn't inspire any controversy when it first premiered at MCA Denver in the summer of 2009 ("Print It," June 18, 2009). Put together by former MCA director Cydney Payton, Shark's Ink: The Legend of Bud Shark and His Indelible Ink, includes ten artists and was meant to celebrate one of Colorado's great cultural treasures, Shark's Ink. In fact, Westword named the exhibit "Best Print Show — Contemporary" in 2009. Regarded as one of the best printmakers in the world, Shark's Ink owner Bud Shark trained in California, New Mexico and London before moving to Colorado, where he founded his printmaking atelier in Boulder in 1976. It is now located in Lyons.
That someone like Folden would impose her own standards on this show, which was meant to acknowledge Shark's considerable accomplishments, is outrageous. And to force Shark into the eye of a political firestorm is even worse than the damage she wrought on the Chagoya (a photo of the damage is seen at right).
The differing reactions to the show highlight the dichotomy between the progressive atmosphere in Denver and the conservative sensibilities that rule Colorado's hinterlands.
One thing that's puzzled me, though, is how amateur "art critics" like Folden were able to find the images they eventually deemed to be blasphemous. In looking at the Chagoya, it's difficult to figure out what's going on, and not just because his juxtaposition of images is typically enigmatic, but because there are so many of them. The image Folden took exception to is near the end and shows a depiction of a man laying his head in a woman's lap with the word "orgasm" written behind them. The head of a man who could be Jesus has been superimposed over the head of the woman.
In my review of the show when it was at the MCA, I described the Chagoya prints as being "covered with striking and idiosyncratic" images that referred to the artist's "Mexican-American roots." I also said that they "look like a cross between ancient Meso-American codex scrolls and underground commix." The Christ figures are coming from the comic book end, with the style and format relating to the ancient Mayan books.
Oh, and guess what happened to most of those books? Spanish colonizers, filled with religious zeal, destroyed them 500 years ago. Sound familiar?
And now this event has wrought even more collateral damage on our culture: The Loveland Museum is in the crosshairs of the Religious Right. Shark's wife, Barbara, has sent out a note asking that people write letters of support to the museum, and to make donations to the beleaguered institution. I say "Amen" to that.

Question: After watching parts of the WB's farewell Sunday night, I have to say that the WB's attitude over the years had definitely changed. I for one really liked the old WB with Michigan J. Frog. Wow, so many good shows at once. I remember how the WB was determined to get that target teen audience, and they did it in every way possible. The last few years, the WB really lost its way with the addition of all those older-skewing shows like Blue Collar TV and Related. These weren't necessarily bad shows, but they weren't a good fit for the WB. Do you think that if the WB hadn't steered away from the teen crowd, it would've remained profitable?
Answer: Hard to say, though the real hurdle to profitability for both the WB and for UPN (about which I received precious few letters of regret or farewell) was that both mini-networks were going after the exact same demo, in effect cannibalizing the audience. The problem for such a narrowly targeted network is that, even when the shows are

Question: I am writing to you because I have faith (as much as I can in TV executives) that they read your columns because you have a lot of influence on viewers. I can only hope. Although I am crying tears of happiness that the CW executives found it in their (Grinch-like) hearts to renew Veronica Mars, I am disappointed to learn that Pepper Dennis will not be back. I don't believe they gave the show enough of a chance, putting it on WB (whose younger demographic probably didn't respond to it well) and on a night when so much else was going on. I watched the show initially with skepticism because it looked like it was going to be just silly, but the characters and story lines grew on me, and Rebecca Romijn is unexpectedly fabulous in the role. I will be sorry to say goodbye to WEIE. Another one bites the dust. I hope all the wonderful actors (and writers!) on the show get another chance on a network that won't dump them without giving them a decent break.
Answer: Looking purely at

Question: Hi, Matt! I am one of those very concerned fans who fears losing great shows such as Everwood, Gilmore Girls, etc., with the WB/UPN merge. I noticed the other day that ABC Family is sporting a show called Beautiful People. What are your thoughts on the possibility of some of these shows being sold to ABC Family? They already rerun some of the WB shows, so why not take on new episodes? I know that it looks like Gilmore Girls will remain, but I can't lose Everwood. I also like One Tree Hill and was a fan of Related. I know you hated it, but week after week it improved and became one of the shows I looked forward to watching. Anyway, I was watching the show Beautiful People and wondered if there might be a place for some of the WB shows on ABC Family. Your thoughts? Also, is there anything a desperate fan can do to save our favorite shows? Do networks really pay attention to petitions?
Answer: I'm not sure petitions, online or otherwise, will help the CW powers-that-be in making

Tiffany Dupont, The Bedford Diaries
If The Bedford Diaries and its ribald undertones prove to be too hot for WB (or, ultimately CW) to handle, Tiffany Dupont can remove herself from any blame. After all, the perky brunette plays Sarah Gregory, the show's good girl on campus. (As "good" as one who boinks her teacher can be.) TVGuide.com spoke to Dupont about being an angel amidst Bedford's hellcats.
TVGuide.com: Did you actually shoot Bedford Diaries in New York City? It sure looks like it.Tiffany Dupont: Yes, we did. We had a studio in Astoria, Queens, but were shooting on location at Barnard [College] and Columbia [University].

Question: Hi, Matt! Love the column! I was wondering if there is any confirmed news, or even reliable speculation, about which current shows will be on CW in September. I've never been a fan of UPN, so personally, I'm more concerned with the current WB shows. Also, do you think that a possible reason for these individual networks' financial downfall is the money lost on mid-season replacement shows that are eventually canceled? As I said, I don't watch UPN, so I don't know if they have mid-season replacements, but it seems to me that if they just sucked it up and aired repeats instead of producing new shows to run for a couple months, viewers wouldn't lose interest in shows that go on a three-month hiatus (Everwood) and money wouldn't be lost on mid-season replacements that are just going to be canceled anyway. I did like Related, which aired in Everwood's time slot, and it was nice to see something new instead of repeats, but I'd rather have seen repeats if it meant I wouldn't have to ...

Amanda Bynes bends her gender in She's the Man.
In the new comedy She's the Man (in theaters now), Amanda Bynes plays Viola, a soccer star forced to get her kicks by masquerading as her twin brother, Sebastian. Along the way, of course, all manner of hunky guys and ironically attracted girls find themselves mesmerized by this gal in disguise. Was Bynes able to pull it off? Should Felicity Huffman be looking over her shoulder? And more to the point, is the perky What I Like About You star ready to kick some Natalie Portman butt this weekend? Here's what Bynes shared with TVGuide.com in a fun one-on-one.
TVGuide.com: Seeing She's the Man almost — and my AP English teacher will be happy to hear this — made me want to actually read Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, on which it is loosely based. Or at least revisit the CliffsNotes

Kevin James, The King of Queens
This week the networks began meeting with ad-agency execs to talk about what's in development for the 2006-07 season. That means it's time for producers of current shows with less-than-robust ratings to start worrying about getting picked up for next season. Here's what industry insiders are telling the Biz.
ABC: The network's comedies are having a tough year in the ratings, but you can't cancel all of them. Rodney, Hope & Faith, Crumbs and Less than Perfect aren't likely to make the cut. According to Jim, George Lopez and Freddie have a chance of returning. Since ABC has two more hours to program in the fall now that football has moved to NBC, shows that would otherwise be doomed have a chance. We're talking Invasion and Commander in Chief. Their survival depends on the strength of the network's new-program development.
CBS: Another season of The King of Queens depends on whether the n

Question: Alright, I know you keep saying how much you hate Related. However, I love the show (though I know it more than likely won't be returning). Do you think it's possible you don't like the show just because you're a man? It's about four sisters and their relationships! What man would be interested in that?
Answer: How about the sort of man who digs a show called Gilmore Girls? Or who avidly followed the adventures of Felicity through her four years of college? Related was too cutesy and too grating (to me, anyway) to cross over, making it a failure in my book, regardless of its target audience. I should be able to watch a show that isn't intended specifically for me without getting a migraine ...

This weekend was a good one for dinner and drinks with friends, a birthday party, dressing up, going to the market, and a long slow walk in the middle of the night with fast-moving clouds. It was also a good weekend for doing just "stuff". I dug boxes out of the basement and sorted their contents into Keep/Recycle/Trash. I put up some Christmas decorations (finally). And I read in quiet.
In sorting through boxes, I found a number of paintings and pieces of writing (short stories, poems) evidence of a time when I did a lot of what I call "being together, apart" or what a friend calls "co-puttering" (a term I'll use here for its simplicity). It reminded me of the different ways that people experience friendships and relationships, and how some people prefer to do everything together and others have a preference for some mixture of time spent together and time spent apart, including a recognition that you can be apart but somehow together.
The paintings and writings were from times in my life when I lived with people (roommates in some cases, a former partner in another) who, like me, were very comfortable with co-puttering. We didn't have to do every little thing together to be friends/partners or to be close. As an example, with the former partner, a typical Saturday for us went something like this: I would wake up early and go to the farmer's market alone. I'd come home to drop off my things and then change to go to the log cabin home of an eccentric lady who lived in the woods and taught yoga. There, we'd do yoga and then she'd tell me winding stories about her life over lunch. By the time I came home, my partner was usually awake, writing, working, watching sports on TV, or playing music. I'd be home briefly before going out again to swim, hang out with a girlfriend, or take riding lessons. When I came home mid-afternoon, he was usually playing music or mixing music in his studio, and it filled our home. I might read a book somewhere. In the evening, we would either co-putter (he'd watch TV, I'd read) or we'd watch a movie or go out to dinner. This worked beautifully for us.

I have been getting hassled by a certain collection company for a bill that somehow got submitted to them... even though the amount was actually paid to the original creditor.
Long story short... a payment $287.05 was paid to Qwest... they mis-applied that amount to the wrong account... when I found out about this they made the corrections on my account, and and moved on... this occured in/around Oct of 2010.
Then starting in January I start getting letters and calls from collection agencies for the same amount... I have tried over and over sending them letters of validation, showing them proof it was paid, and even calling Qwest... who shows me as never being late, or having anything ever submitted to collections...
Now this same colletion company have started sending letters to addresses that I have never lived at... (my parents home address to which they moved into 2 years ago...) and I have not lived in that state in over 16 years......
This is getting out of hand.. as this company fails to listen to me and just continues to try and collect on a debt that does not exist.
Any ideas.. do I have a right to sue them?? I have not checked to see if they have put it on my credit yet.. but am betting they did...
I'd pull your reports from annualcreditreport.com. Look for the CA, but also look at the soft inquiries. I bet they pulled through there and got all of your past addresses.
If I had that happen, I would send a DV letter to the CA. I'd also call back Qwest to see who owns the debt and get it again in writing from them that $0 is owed (for future protection). If the CA did report, then wait for them to respond to the DV. If after a couple of months of no response or if they continue to send collection letters after they received the DV (thereby ignoring your request), then dispute with the CRAs with proof from Qwest showing that nothing is owed. They might remove it if the info is compelling. If not, then take it a step further with complaints to the BBB (for the OC and CA), planetfeedback, FTC, your state's protection agency, etc.
Right to sue? IMO, no, unless you can prove damages (e.g. you got fired because of that one collection or totally lost out on a mortgage and have to pay for storage, moving, etc. to an apartment due to a denial). It's likely a case where Qwest never communicated to the CA.

|I've been wanting to set a new table for a week. Tired of looking at all the red, wht and blue. So I took time this morning and pulled out some of my recent ys finds and set a new one. It was almost like Christmas!
Summer is always ice tea time so why not use my ice tea jar for the cp flower arrangement. The purple plates are Pier 1 and the ivory plates are Home Interior. I'll show a close up so you can see the pretty flower design on them.
Aren't the glasses and sherbets neat? So glad I had them for this table. The candlesticks and small candle holders were .25 ea so couldn't leave them behind. The libby square candle holders and candles were some left over from a wedding and were FREE! Sat the fireman on to cover up the fold.
I should be out in the yard but I'm fixing lasagna for dinner tonight. DH was nice and used some roundup in the garden and it killed all the carrots, lettuce, raddishes and beets so don't have much to weed around. Guess I'll be buying at the farmers market.
Not sure why some of the pictures didn't resize but need to keep moving.LOL

|Punk, such a serene tablesetting. It has such a quiet calming effect, at least on me. I love the sheberts and the glasses. I know what you are saying about your hubby and roundup. My DH thinks roundup is the greatest thing since sliced bread and I can't tell you how many time I have threatened to "round=up" him for getting it on things that were not supposed to be sprayed, esp my flowers He can't tell the difference in Burdock and rhubarb, little alone lettuce and planten. I"ve decided nothing is safe around a man with a sprayer full of round-up. TFS janet

|oh punk...this is a beautiful summer table!
I love, love the plates ...purple & ivory flowered ones! And your glasses & sherbets sure look great w/the dishes!
Pretty, pretty t'cloth & I love how you used a placesetting for your centerpc tea jar...which is a lovely cp. And your pics are really good! candyshot, A+!
I hate Round-up altho I know many use it & it works well...my DH uses it sparingly here as I am always gripping about chemicals...none in my veggie garden...but the payback is LOTS of weeds & weeding! LOL! Sorry you lost your veggies!
TFS your t'scape...missing you all here! Jeanne S.

|Really pretty white plates, Punk, I love the scallops and the raised design. The glasses and sherbert dish sure are perfect for this tablescape. Glad you had some time to redo your table. This one seems so calm and relaxing---and I'm ready for a nice cold glass of iced tea too! :o)

|That looks so cool and refreshing. It was close to a 100 here today, and that table looks so inviting.
Your plates are so pretty and so is the CP.
I have to stake plants to identify them as plants not weeds as my DH has also had RoundUp trigger finger!!
Seems like it is a guy thing!! LOL
|Punk how nice to see this lovely table setting...it's been so quiet here. I too love the pretty color combination>
and love the pattern on your dishes. I think the glasses and sherbets are perfect accents. Your ice tea jar makes a great CP> I think those candleholders were a steal...and look so pretty with this setting..Everything is just lovely.
DH was a little 'trigger happy' and killed our corn one year with RoundUp. Now he's totally off limits in the vegetable garden!
|Very soothing with a touch of whimsey in the fireman & painted candlesticks & the candle holder with the berries around it really finish the table off nicely. Ice tea jar makes a great vase & I'm drinking ice tea as I look at these posts! You just need a scoop or maybe some melon scooper little balls of sherbet in your dishes, some shortbread & a couple of tall glasses of ice tea! Jan

|My reaction was exactly the same as Kath's. LOL
Such a serene table, I really like that feeling these days.
After hearing the DH garden stories, makes me glad Mr Oblivious stays on the golf course. I learned years ago I didn't want his "help" pruning bushes or spraying weed killer. LOL.
I have been reading and seeing news stories on the massive heat wave that is sitting over most of the US. I am so sorry its hitting a lot of you guys, with your humidity it must be unbearable! Stay cool, and safe. We had 112 the last few days but our humidity is about 30%, which is "high" for us tho normal for July-Aug here. Got another duststorm while ago, tho nothing like the monster of last week.
hugs, Karen

|Karen...humidity 81% today & by tomorrow evening, the good ol' weather guy says we should be going down from 'oppressive' to 'uncomfortable!' (75% or so) LOL! It's a doozie!
& punk, I didn't know why the 'fireman' was on the table...instead of one of your pretty birds or your Mom's pretties...so now I know...he's there to COOL us off, uh! LOL! Jeanne S.
|Max, thanks, I've been thinking about you. I bought a buffet from one of DD's friends and made me wonder how your hunt for one is going. They are moving to Hawaii and needed to sell it.
Janet, you crack me up! I hate to complain when I'm getting some help but gee.LOL I do wonder how people kept up with the weeds before all the chemicals came about.
Jeanne, I've really missed all of you here too. I try to keep up with my weeding but two weeks of company is to long to not be in my yard this time of year. So look out Here Comes The Roundup. I'm glad he didn't get close to my flowers. His neice lives beside us and has a green house so it won't be hard to get fresh veggies.
Luvs, I just made a gallon of tea before coming here tonight. I've never cared for sun tea so I can make it any time of day. I bet you go through alot of tea with all the heat you have.
Candy, I think guys use Roundup and we tend to get in there and try w/o and if the weeds get to far ahead run for help. I really need to get some more compost mixed in my flower beds to help me out.
Jane, I don't like running the tiller so I can't boot DH out of the garden! I didn't plant any corn this year with the crappy weather we had. I do have tomatoes and cukes that are looking good.
Jan, wish it wasn't 11 pm and I'd fill the dishes with some melon balls, grab some cookies, pour a glass of tea and do a photo shoot for you. Sounds like a wonderful idea. I love seeing food and beverage on the tables but seldom take the time to do it. Maybe one of these years.
Marlene, what?? no Roundup stories from you?LOL thanks for all the sweet commments.
Karen, we have been luckier than alot with our weather except that my parents home flooded and mold set in before we found it. We have a company in there who gutted the whole basement and removed all the mold. Cost us and arm and leg so don't know how soon we'll get all the walls and flooring replaced.
Your dust storms are a terrible thing to bear. Is this something new that has started in your area?
Jeanne, hope you can cool down soon. I can always send the fireman your way if need be.LOL
Thanks everyone for all the sweet comments on my ts. I sure hope GW doen't give me fits for awhile. I will be out of town for a couple of days but will try to catch up here when I have time.
Stay Cool!!!

|Punk it looks lovely! Love the colors.
You are a busy gal. Summer is always busy here, I don't know where the time goes!
|Beautiful, beautiful table, I agree with the others it is serene. Purple is one of my favorite colors.
The purple plates are perfect with your pretty ivory ones.
The glasses and sherbets are just right. I love that you used your iced tea jar for the center piece! Those little bud vases [?] and candle holders are pretty.
I'm lovin that fireman.
My DH never killed anything in our garden with round up, but he HATED dandelions. One year he got something to kill them and sprayed them all. When we looked out the next morning, all of the grass around them was dead, but the dandelions were standing tall and proud!! Needless to say, He was not happy with me laughing hysterically!

Volcom Pardo Pant - Women's
LOVE THEM but they are very slim fitting
These pants are SLIM fitting and NOT 15K. They are only 10K as per the Volcom Tag for waterproofing and breathability. I normally wear a small in team fit and the older slim fit style but could barely get these on in a small and will be returning them shortly. The purple pair are super cute!!!!

By Coastal Review Online on December 13, 2012
In what's seen as a significant first step toward developing wind energy off the N.C. coast, the federal government has asked for project proposals for three offshore areas, one off the Outer Banks and two near Wilmington.
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, part of the U.S. Department of Interior, has identified an area 6 miles off Kitty Hawk and two areas 7 to 13 miles from Cape Fear as having potential for commercial wind energy. The three areas total about 1,400 square miles.
This week's "Call for Information and Nominations" is meant to gauge the industry's interest in developing wind projects in the areas. It will be followed with a formal announcement in the Federal Register along with a request for public comments for the environmental assessment that will be done on wind-energy development in the any of the three areas.
These are the first steps in the federal planning process that could lead to leasing all or part of the areas to companies that would build the giant wind turbines.
North Carolina is considered to have to strongest and most consistent wind on the East Coast for commercial wind-energy development. Studies have concluded that if it were harnessed to make electricity that wind could theoretically supply all of the state's energy needs.
"This is good news and an important step in North Carolina's responsible development of our offshore energy resources which will move our nation closer to energy independence," Gov. Beverly Perdue said yesterday in a press release. "The development of offshore wind energy diversifies the state's energy sector, creates much needed jobs in our coastal communities and positions our state for a 21st century economy."
Following the formal announcement in the Federal Register, the bureau will accept public comments for 45 days about environmental and social issues that should be addressed in the assessment. Comments can be transmitted electronically. Click on the "Open Comment Documents" link and follow the instructions to view relevant materials and submit comments.
Comments can also be mailed to The Office of Renewable Energy Programs,
Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, 381 Elden Street, HM 1328, Herndon, Va., 20170-4817.
The bureau will soon schedule public information meetings to provide additional opportunities to comment. Once scheduled, information about the public information meetings will be found online.
Other East Coast states have already gone through this process, and leasing has moved forward in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Virginia, noted Zak Keith, the offshore wind coordinator for the N.C. Sierra Club.
"The bottom line is that we are one step closer to developing North Carolina's tremendous wind resource off our coast," he said in a press release. "We have a strategic energy reserve right off our coast and we don't have to risk an oil spill to get to it."

Lost Girl Review: Big Bad Ass Bugby Carla Day at . Comments
If you are afraid of spiders, I hope you didn't watch "Arachnofaebia." Spiders didn't creep me out before watching, but now ... maybe just a bit! Yuck!
A new day brought a new evil Fae with it, a Djieiene. It's a spider that poisons people causing them to become paranoid to the point of wanting to kill. Dyson was on a case of multiple murder-suicides when his path crossed Bo and Kenzi.
How hilarious was Kenzi during her house cleansing ritual? Not only were her antics chuckle-inducing, but the realtor's reaction and belief in the ritual was equally funny. The ritual worked to the extent that the evil spider left the house in Kenzi's bag.
Of course, that didn't bode well for Kenzi or Bo when they were infected by the spider. Their normal irritation with each other took a potentially deadly turn. Bo's moments of paranoia accurately manifested from her natural disposition of mistrust.
While it was distressing to watch Kenzi and Bo go after each other, it was equally disturbing to see Hale try to kill Kenzi. Thankfully, Bo was able to fight off the venom once she had fed on Hale. Given the spider's influence over them toward killing, I was surprised that Bo was able to control herself and not kill Hale. Perhaps, he was able to heal her in a similar manner as Dyson.
What I found most interesting was the deeper look into the Fae leadership, the Ash. Lauren supposedly cares deeply for Bo, but her allegiance was to the Ash, not Bo. Lauren called for the quarantine, which should have led to Bo's death.
In the end, Dyson and Lauren worked together to figure out how to find the Djieniene's heart in order to kill it. Would Lauren have killed the man in order to save Bo? Interesting question since she was quick to call for the quarantine.
The love triangle between Bo, Dyson and Lauren has certainly progressed. Bo was right when she called out Dyson on his inability to say he cares. Why is that? It can't just be about knowing about her past, can it? Why is he afraid of being with her?
Compared to Dyson, Lauren is open about her feelings and wanting to be with Bo. But, as a human, it is a much greater risk to both of them. At this point, I don't really want Bo to be with either of them. If the spider incident showed anything, it was that Bo should really focus on learning more about herself and the Fae leadership.

I don't understand where everyone is getting the idea that Lauren is ok with or out to kill Bo in this episode. When I watched this, I saw her call for the quarintine before she knew that Bo (and Kenzi) were infected. Once she found out that Bo had been bitten by the spider, she was going above & beyond to find the cure. And yes I think Lauren would've killed that guy to get what she needed to save Bo.
Freaky. Kenzi was especially hilarious when she was cleansing the house.
Man, Lost Girl is balls.I watched the first eoispde with my dad cause the trailer looked awesome. I had high hopes in the beginning with the cute blonde who turned out to be super irritating (and also not blonde)and the writing was so bad, and I didn't much like the plot, and we both agreed on it's ballsness and laughed in hearty disbelief at the rest of the eoispde.I liked Doctor Cute, but I haven't watched it since cause I tend to build a substantial resentment towards shows I only watch for potential lesbian plots. 1
was it me or was the pizza guy Pete kellan lutz?
So Lauren's not really trustworthy if she doesn't really care if you live or die. I would think Bo would know that and back off of the whole flirtation with Lauren, who really isn't that hot, BTW. I think Dyson loves Bo and has her best interests at heart, and I sincerely hope we get to see more scenes of them 'healing' one another, especially with Kris Holden Ried without a shirt on...yuuuuummmmmy!
I love this show, and I am sick that Dyson told Bo to go elsewhere for healing when she needs it. I think the delicious Dyson and Bo were made for one another, and I strongly believe he's in love with her, and she with him, but I don't think they are able to tell one another because both are wary and proud, and in Dyson's case, the nasty dwarf bartender/leader guy told him that he's not supposed to get emotionally involved with Bo, because they know some things about her that she doesn't, and nasty dwarf fae doesn't think they can trust her (he's so wrong!) I can understand why Bo is drawn to Lauren, who is helping her control her succubusness, but I think that sexual interest is misplaced, because, as we saw in this episode, Lauren is more than willing to kill Bo and Kenzi if ordered by Ash or protocol to do so.
Major spoiler Wolves love once and deeply! This will heavily shadow the current and next season,

It is now time to prepare specific questions for your interview. Remember the purpose of the interview for the organization is twofold; to assess your skills and knowledge; and also determine the cultural fit. We will analyze the job description and develop a list of specific questions you may get in the interview. The first step is to start by analyzing the job description for primary skills and knowledge. Look at the Responsibilities and Qualifications sections to analyze this information.
Let's take a look at an example Project Manager description. The four items that would be most important to prepare for include: Leading multiple software development and integration projects in Agile. Scoping projects and managing risk. Estimates projects using multiple techniques. Delivering them on time and on budget. Mentors and guides people. The second step is more elusive in that you have to determine the culture and desired fit.
Look for descriptive words related to culture. In this example it would be "can-do" attitude, take charge of conference room, and unflappable. If there are not words related to culture in the description, then you may want to schedule an informational interview. You can now create sample questions based on the three types. Let's begin with the knowledge and skills. For example, a Behavioral Question would be, "Give me an example of a project you have scoped and how have you managed the risk." A Situation Question would be, "Walk us through how you would scope the project and manage the risk." And finally, a Resume-based Question, "Your resume states you managed the Agile projects successfully; tell us more about it." You can also prepare questions for the cultural fit.
In our example they are looking for a "can-do" attitude and someone that is unflappable. They may ask a Behavioral Question like, "Give us an example of where you have pushed through an idea." Or a Situational Question like, "How would you push through an idea at this organization?" Or a Resume-based Question, "You mentioned on your resume that you initiated a project, how did you do this?" Now it is time to prepare answers for your sample questions. It's important to have good examples lined up to showcase your skills and knowledge for each of the responsibilities.
Remember to be detailed in your answer. Use SAR as a way to prepare and make your answers stronger. Describe the Situation, explain your Action, and let them know the Results. Although you can't anticipate every question, this will give you a strong starting point to prepare. In the next movie, we'll talk about effective techniques that you can use to practice.
