Product Q&A
Ask your questions. Share your answers.
2. Should I also purchase, for example, the very thin but strong "Verizon Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Samsung Galaxy Note 3" and replace the Commuter Series' screen protector with the tempered glass?
3. Would the tempered glass be compatible with your Commuter product?
Note: the Defender would be too bulky for my pocket.
2. No matter what my screen is made of or coated with, I always like that extra layer of protection (also because if I go to sell/trade it, it'll be in pristine condition). That being said, I've never used the Verizon Tempered Glass protector, or the one that came with the Otterbox. I've only used Zagg shields and I swear by 'em.
3. There's enough "give" under the case edge to install screen protectors. They're very thin. Since no hard plastic wraps completely to the front and past the bezel, it shouldn't be an issue.

Let's talk about The Dark Knight Rises plotholes
Off Topic Week August 1st, 2012
The Dark Knight trilogy is pretty much my favorite thing to ever happened to comic book movies. The Avengers was awesome and everything I wanted from it, but nothing can ever top Christopher Nolan's epic trilogy. Every movie felt bigger than itself, bigger than some comic book. It felt like real life only if real life was freaking terrible and there were all these people trying to destroy our city. I love the Dark Knight trilogy.
The Dark Knight Rises came out a week ago and was basically the perfect end to the series. There are people who will say that they like The Dark Knight better than they like Rises and that's fine. Heath Ledger put in one of the all time tour de force show stopping acting performances of all time and it's hard not to like that. Me? It's too early to tell. I think Batman Begins might be my favorite because the truth of the series is that Bruce Wayne, not Batman, is the very best character they created for the series. Dark Knight is awesome, but it is the Joker show and Bruce Wayne is hardly a thing in it. A part of me likes Rises the best because the Bruce Wayne stuff is top notch. As is the Alfred part, JGL's character and the awesomeness of Anne Hathaway's performance. The truth is that I really want Rises to be my favorite, but I can't because there are just too many glaring plotholes that take me out of the movie and now I am going to talk about them.

The Locked-and-Loaded Weekend Bag To Make Your Fridays Easier
Digital Fashion Writer
Ever received a last-minute invite on a weekend trip, or realized you should probably leave for your own trip like, five minutes ago because the traffic's just that bad? I've done both and the result's always the same: I'm frazzled, so I end up packing a completely non-sensical weekend bag with one bikini, two pairs of ridiculous stilettos, six just-in-case sweaters and no pants.
It's annoying and yet avoidable enough to make me a fan of keeping a standby weekend bag, sorta like stashing an extra dopp kit at your boyfriend's so you're never without the essentials. It might seem a little extreme—like, who perma-packs other than A-list actresses? Don't you miss those things during the week? And yeah, I get that. But if you buy non-expensive pieces that are more on the versatile side than the "oh my god outfit-making" side, you won't itch for them. But you will enjoy wearing them all weekend, and you will love that you had time to give yourself a manicure before hitting the road instead of frantically packing.

NSG-Waiver: Historic Or Black Day For India!
September 11, 2008 by TMO · Leave a Comment
By Nilofar Suhrawardy, MMNS
NEW DELHI: The waiver granted to India by the 45-member Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) for nuclear commerce with it, ending 34 years of the country's nuclear isolation definitely marks a major diplomatic victory for Prime Minister Manmohan Singh (September 6). While it spells celebration for Congress and its allies, the waiver has given opposition parties and the left bloc a serious issue to strongly criticize the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government. Mixed reactions to India having secured the NSG waiver suggest beginning of a major political battle at home for the Congress, which is going to be a fiery one with national elections less than a year away.
Welcoming the waiver, Singh described it as "forward-looking and momentous decision." "It is a recognition of India's impeccable non-proliferation credentials and its status as a state with advanced nuclear technology. It will give an impetus to India's pursuit of environmentally sustainable economic growth," he said. Thanking United States and NSG members for "ensuring this outcome," Singh said: "We look forward to establishing a mutually beneficial partnership with friendly countries in an area, which is important for both global energy security as well as to meet the challenge of climate change."
Singh also spoke to President George Bush on telephone thanking him. Besides, "The two leaders expressed their belief that mutually beneficial relations between India and the United States were in the interest of their peoples, and were on a path of steady consolidation and multifaceted expansion, to which both leaders reiterated their commitment," official sources said.
The NSG-waiver will "enable India to resume full civil nuclear cooperation with the international community to meet its energy and development requirements," External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee said. "We welcome this decision," which "constitutes a major landmark in our quest for energy security," he said. It "will open a new chapter in India's cooperation with other countries in peaceful uses of nuclear energy," he pointed out.
Congress leader Sonia Gandhi congratulated Singh and Mukherjee for the NSG-waiver. Describing the waiver as a historic moment, Gandhi said it "marks the culmination of enormous efforts and skilful negotiations by our diplomats and nuclear scientists. Three decades of isolation have ended." In a press statement, Gandhi congratulated the Prime Minister for his "conviction and commitment to pursue with determination India's integration with global mainstream to meet requirements of our energy security."
"This is a triumphant day for India. The NSG consensus … (is) culmination of years of hard work and cooperation between India and the US to bring India into the global nuclear mainstream," US envoy in India David C. Mulford said.
Hailing NSG waiver as "historic" and significant victory for not just the government but for all Indians, Congress party spokesman Manish Tiwari said: "It is a historic day for India. It is a red letter day."
Describing the waiver as a great victory for India, which will help in the country's development, Samajwadi Party (SP) general secretary Amar Singh said: "India needs development and not nuclear bombs." He also criticized the Indo-US deals' opponents for "beating around the bush."
While the NSG-waiver has spelt "victory" for Congress party and its allies, the opposition parties and the left bloc who have opposed the Indo-US nuclear deal think otherwise. Describing the waiver as a "stage-managed show," Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) vice-president Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi blamed the PM for having "compromised on national interests." "In spite of winning the vote at the NSG meeting, the prime minister has lost the battle at home. The deal, in its present state, is going to have long-term consequences," he said.
Senior BJP leader and former external affairs minister Yashwant Sinha said: "The Congress is saying that this will end India's nuclear isolation. We believe this does not hold any ground." "India has walked into a non-proliferation trap. It has lost its right to conduct nuclear tests forever. NSG guidelines are tougher than the Hyde Act," Sinha said.
"This is an injustice done to the generation next to come. The Manmohan Singh government has taken an unfortunate decision by submitting our authority before the United States," Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) leader A. Vijayaraghavan said.
Indian politicians opposed to the deal have been further enraged on contents of a "secret" letter published in The Washington Post, just ahead of NSG meeting in Vienna. The controversial contents made public by Republican Howard L. Berman, Chairman of House Foreign Affairs committee, are viewed as at variance with the stand maintained by India so far. The 26-page letter states that the United States would help India deal only with "disruptions in supply to India that may result through no fault of its own," such as trade war or market disruptions. "The fuel supply assurances are not, however, meant to insulate India against the consequences of a nuclear explosive test or a violation of nonproliferation commitments," the letter says. The Indian government is expected to take "letter"-issue with the Bush administration, sources said.
The letter has provoked the deal's opponents to blame the government for "misleading" the Parliament, "hiding facts" and "lying" to the people over the nature of the deal. CPI-M general secretary Prakash Karat said: "The only option left to them (UPA) is that the Prime Minister should quit. But neither will they convene Parliament session nor will they quit. It is a shameless government." Describing the waiver as a step in direction of total surrender of country's nuclear rights, Karat said that the US orchestrated the NSG waiver as it wants the 123 Agreement to be operationalized. The waiver is in conformity with the Hyde Act. "Any new government that comes to power after next elections other than Congress should get the Indo-US nuclear deal terminated," Karat said. The left would continue its struggle in this regard, he asserted. India has now become part of the "non-proliferation regime, which we have always found to be discriminatory and resisted so far," Karat said.
"We continue to be opposed to 123 agreement. It's a surrender of all our sovereign right," Communist Party of India (CPI) national secretary D. Raja said. In a statement, the CPI said that it is "not a historic day but a black day for India as far as our nuclear program is concerned. This waiver will kill our efforts to develop nuclear technology based on thorium." Another strong opponent of the Indo-US nuke deal, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati, who is also Uttar Pradesh chief minister, described the development in Vienna as a "black day" for India.

Goodbye Quotes and Sayings
if you are brave enough to say goodbye life will reward you with a new hello.
– Paula Coehlo
Goodbye is the easiest thing to do if you never said hello in the first place.
I close my eyes and dream of a time when I wasn't all alone.
Never beg people to stay against their will. Sometimes the gift of goodbye opens another door for you. Move on, and create the next chapter of your life.
Never say goodbye when you still want to try. Never give up when you still feel you can take it. Never say you don't love a person when you can't let go.
I'm letting go..so I can be free.
There comes a time when walking away is the best for everyone.
Freedom from a treacherous, love bondage is a precious ornament.
Say goodbye, walk away, don't look back so it won't hurt as bad.
It seems like you have a new start, but for me it's all over, in the middle of nowhere.
Goodbye is not the end of everything but merely the beginning of something that probably can hurt or make you happy again.
Someone's value can only be realized when it is already too late. That is when he or she is gone.
Bless those who walk away from you for they are making room for those who won't.
Choose better and forget bitter!
When you and your best friend go your separate ways, don't say goodbye just say, see you in heaven!
I was on the cusp of saying goodbye; then the other half said it first.
& that made me feel even "Worse"!
But in the end. We turned out to be the best of "Friends" & now we're "Fine as fine can be".
You weren't a mistake, you were a lesson. Thanks for teaching me not to fall easy.
Say goodbye to someone, never hide it.
If it's hard to say good bye, say hello instead.
You said you cared about me and you said in your vows we shall stay together till we die then why did you leave me.
You left me all alone for no reason, so please don't come back with an excuse!
Take my breath away but never say "Goodbye".
Leaving you was probably the hardest thing I had to do. I made this decision, with listening to my brain, not my heart. Because my heart could never take that.
I left you, without thinking about what is going to happen. I left you without thinking about giving you another chance, because I knew it would be in vain. Falling in love with you, was the best thing that ever happened to me, but somehow, it became the worst. I don't know what I feel right now, is it regret? Pain? I don't know. All I know, is that, no matter what you did to me. Leaving you created a great emptiness. That none could ever fill.
I miss you.
Even if the person you loved and said goodbye to is standing tall on the outside, inside their whole world has crumbled.
Goodbyes are the hardest things ever I can't say them if I'm leaving and not coming back that is hard I hate it.

Broccoli is already one of the most popular vegetables in the US, making an appearance within the top ten of the fresh trends surveys each year. Although the likelihood of its purchase dropped by 6% in 2012, we now consume four times as much broccoli as we did thirty years ago; fresh broccoli intake rose from just 1.4 pounds per person in 1980 to 5.6 pounds per person in 2010. While the increased awareness amongst consumers of broccoli's nutritional value has helped to drive sales upwards, it is widely acknowledged that the health benefits of a product are just one of the factors that influence purchasing decisions.
The Current Situation
Taste and appearance are two of the qualities that are valued highly by shoppers when it comes to purchasing their fruit and vegetables and with regards to this, broccoli can sometimes fall short of the mark; we have all seen broccoli in a grocery store that is starting to turn yellow, not to mention that which has developed a rubbery texture and has an overly bitter taste. As with any fresh item, broccoli is at its best soon after picking, but across most of America, fresh broccoli is only readily available from local producers at either side of the growing season when the temperatures are lower. As a vegetable that doesn't like the heat, it's no coincidence that 90% of the broccoli for sale is grown in California, with its temperate climate. However, if you live on the East Coast, after a five-day truck journey, it is usually a week post-picking by the time you purchase broccoli from the supermarket; by that point, it's not so appealing.
Properties of new varieties
A team of researchers at Cornell University are using cross-breeding to create a type of broccoli that grows well in hot summers, yet is still cost-effective and can be grown in large quantities, helping both growers and consumers alike. Allowing more people to access broccoli grown close to home throughout the growing season means not only fresher produce, but cheaper produce due to the avoidance of transportation over long distance; reduced consumption of fuel and therefore greenhouse gas emission is another bonus. However, not only does this broccoli thrive at higher temperatures, the taste and texture of the florets has also been enhanced, so that they are crisp, tender and have a subtle sweetness. These qualities will encourage its consumption, in line with the advice that we should be eating more cruciferous vegetables; it also means that the interest in using broccoli as a salad item is likely to increase. The scientists are also working to develop disease resistant varieties and increase broccoli's glucoraphanin content, which has been linked to a reduced risk of cancer; this isn't its only nutritional benefit though.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We used WPD for our wedding invitations and received lots of compliments. So it was an easy decision to use them for all our other paper needs. The menu looked very elegant in the Pearl Shimmer addition and the font went perfect with our romantic theme. Unfortunately, I made an error on the back of the menu and WPD graciously and quickly offered to reprint the correct version at no additional cost. They even rushed the order. I love working with WPD!"
"Not only did the color and text come out exactly how we wanted, but having the option to decorate the back was most helpful! We uploaded a photo of us and wrote our donation message in lieu of favors on the bottom! 2 birds, one stone! And they cropped our photo beautifully!! This is a great option!!"
"This menu card looked stunning when it arrived. Wedding Paper Divas's customer service was excellent and answered all my questions. I worked with the designer to change the format for three courses instead of the four you see, and changed it to add images related to my wedding theme. The end result was amazing and I cannot wait to see these displayed on each plate at my wedding."
"The paper quality is very nice- sturdy and thick. I chose the blue ink color and it came out perfectly. I also needed this menu to be bilingual and they were able to accommodate this request by printing on the front and back (one language on each side). As usual- awesome customer service! I love my menus!"
"I ordered these for the place settings at our daughter's Wedding. They are beautiful!. Paper quality is excellent. Available typesetting matched their invitations. Very nice!!!"

Sounds to me like there are some guide data issues. You might want to try fluching your guide data by resetting the DVR twice in 30 minutes.
The guide data on Zap 2 It is listing the episodes on Mondays as being new episodes as far as I can see, so I dont' think it is an issue with the guide data in the stream being wrong unless your local affilliate might be doing something strange to it. I recommend you check Zap 2 It yourself for your zip code and see if it tags the monday episodes as new episodes.

Mondays used to show "highlights" of the week before. Basically if you missed a whole week, Monday seemed to be a recap of everything. Not advertised this way, but sure seemed to be. Not that I watch soaps... ;-) .... well, not anymore. YEARS I say, YEARS.
Anyway, perhaps that is why they aren't always listed as new.

After using my new HR34 for a month, I see one large glaring issue: program sorting (Note: MRV is not enabled). This shows up in the Playlist, where an A-Z sort gives two groups of A-Z sort, one after the other. It also shows up in single-channel program lists (guide/highlight channel name/display) after to drill down to a program and then back out, the channel list is now balky and generally completely out of order (whole date range blocks are misordered, with next Tuesday following next Friday).
This all seems one bug, but I've not seen it mentioned here. Does my unit have a problem?

In a recent interview with the South Wales Evening Post, Swansea City Chairman Huw Jenkins seemed certain that sooner or later, the league's big clubs would be in for Brendan Rodgers, and Norwich City boss Paul Lambert. He argued:
"Given the way we have performed as a club and the football we have played, it's quite natural that our manager is going to be linked to other clubs.
"Whether it is Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal, Liverpool or whoever, we better get used to the fact that our manager is going to be mentioned if those jobs come up.
"Brendan and Norwich's Paul Lambert are probably going to be mentioned whenever a job comes up. That's just a fact of life."
Rodgers and Lambert: What do you think? Are they serious contenders to take over from Dalglish when he leaves the club?
I personally would love to see Rodgers give a chance. When Swansea came to Andfield earlier in the season, Liverpool's players were chasing shadows for much of the game, and that was down to pace, movement, skill, and overall brilliance of the Swansea team that day.
That performance was not a one-off either; Swansea have played well all season, and that's largely down to the positive pass and move footballing philosophy Rodgers has instilled at the club.
In a press conference earlier this week, Rodgers refuted suggestions that it was 'too soon' for him to move to a 'top club'. However, if he came to Liverpool, I just don't think the club's notoriously hypocritical fans would give him the time needed to turn things around. After a few bad results, the personal and professional attacks would begin, and he'd be hounded out of Anfield just like Roy Hodgson.

As part of the BGA's efforts to uncover problems and propose solutions, Mr. Shaw believes some of the best attributes of Chicago/BGA journalists are that they "dig deep, discover issues and try to change them. Nothing's swept under the rug. At the BGA, we have a fairly large staff of trained investigative journalists. Many of the leads/tips come my way because people know me, so I pass them along. I tend to do more policy analysis. I speak out on issues, but I don't do the legwork in the investigations. We have about six full-time investigative journalists and a group of freelancers."
And as for the amount of government corruption the BGA continues to uncover, Mr. Shaw is sorry to see it happen as often as it does. "I'm sorry three members of Illinois state legislature are under corruption charges, even after two governors have gone to jail. I'm sorry to hear about University of Illinois at Chicago's study showing 300 cases of police corruption over the past few years. People just don't get the message. Lessons aren't learned sufficiently."
For years, Mr. Shaw has seen investigative reports, news reports and public outcries over plenty of issues with nothing being done to change them. "I compare it to a thunderstorm," he says. "There's been a lot of noise, a lot of rain, and everybody puts up their umbrella or runs for cover. Then, a half hour later, the sun comes out and people go back to business as usual. So exposing corruption and bad behavior is just the first step at the BGA. It doesn't do a lot of good if it's not accompanied by proposals for reform. That said, every time we do an investigation we also suggest changes that would improve the situation. These investigations have to be accompanied by remedial proposals and lobbying campaigns to make them happen."
When the state legislature abolished legislative scholarships that had been badly abused by lawmakers for years, Mr. Shaw says it was a great example of BGA 'watchdog work' at its best. "We told a lot of stories of lawmakers who abused the scholarship programs, awarding money to sons and daughters of political friends rather than needy students," he explains. "But we also pushed hard to get those scholarships completely eliminated. We had an advocacy campaign online, bombarded lawmakers with emails and, at the end of the day, they gave up a very popular and powerful perk. If you tell a story and then suggest reforms and push hard for them you can accomplish something."
However, although Mr. Shaw has seen his fair share of dishonest government officials/policies, he doesn't believe Chicago is any more corrupt than other cities. "We've celebrated our corruption over the years," he observes. "It's part of the ethos of the city. We have this reputation burnished by playwrights and moviemakers. We're famous for infamous gangsters, rogue journalists and corrupt politicians. It's become part of our lore. But the same elements that make a government corrupt here exist in almost every other big city whether it's New York, Boston, Cleveland, Detroit, Philadelphia or New Orleans. They've had plenty of corruption. It's just that we tend to talk about it more and it's more a part of our reputation."
On a positive note, Mr. Shaw observes small improvements in the government even if some officials are still trying to play the system for profit and power. "I'm an optimist," he insists. "If I weren't I wouldn't do this job. And I have to think if we work hard and expose these problems and suggest remedial solutions, sooner or later it's going to get better. I see it happening slowly. We have to keep pushing forward to eventually create a government that works for the public and not the public officials."
Mr. Shaw says it's important for public officials to speak out and try to self-correct. "Public officials ought to take it upon themselves as part of their obligation to root out problems, expose them and correct them. There are a lot of good public officials out there, and it's important for them to be proactive and do things on their own rather than having to be prodded. So when you see public officials doing the right thing, just because they should, not because they're told, it's encouraging."
The CEO also has tremendous respect for women in politics/business. "I'm honored and thrilled to be in TCW, because I have more experience with and respect for women than most men do. I've worked with and for women my entire life – all of my bosses at ABC over the last decade were women. At the BGA, half our staff is female. And, to me, politics fairs better with more women in the mix because they have more sensitivity and sensibility – less of an ego – than men. The empowerment of women in all companies, including the BGA, creates a better product and environment.
I have three daughters myself. My oldest is a lawyer who worked at the White House and was a clerk on the U.S. Supreme Court. My middle daughter is the CEO of an education consulting company, and my youngest is running a digital library program at the University of Iowa. I'm enormously proud of all three of them, and they're a great example of what happens when you really work hard to empower your daughters. I took the role of fatherhood very seriously. I felt it was as important as my career. And I always thought if I worked hard with the girls, they were gong to have the strength and ability to do great things, and it's worked out beautifully. They gave us hell as teenagers, but turned out to be fantastic women."

Thanks Stuart, Smiddy and all of you. How I wish that G4 catered to techies; their coverage really sucks.
This kind of thread makes me yearn for the old ZDTV/TechTV days . . . when I first sub'd to Directv back in the late '90s, I watched "The Screen Savers" and related shows on ZDTV just about every night - their coverage of computers and consumer electronics was amazing.

I bought this to replace a similar item that I had used for over 13 years. This one is not made as well and has 2 leaky spots. Disappointed and wondering if I just got one that was defective or if they just aren't made like the old ones. I can't see this lasting 13+ years. :(

It leak and I got wet. Water went up in the air, the hose came a part, the sprayer leak at the seam. Made cheap. I order 5 of them. All 5 have a problem. Sending them back.
Waste of money
By Christy
from Ohio
Because of the bad fit, this flimsy sprayer can't be used at all. I would return it, but the postage would eat up most of the refund and it's not worth wasting my time. Do not buy.

waste of money - cheaply made!

About Me Beginner
the product is a cheaply made useless product - don't waste your money on this will not fit any faucet, hose is too short and if you drop the thing it might break! It went into the garbage!
Really needed item
By Snitwiitti
from Coastal Carolina
Had one of these for 20+ years and it finally disintegrated. Was thrilled to finally find another one. Was not happy that it initially leaked.. had a hole in it. So I began with this one with duck tape around it to keep that water from spraying me while I washed the dog.

we use it in the kitchen sink to help wash my husbands hair. I love the flexibility of and the way it sprays very nicely.
By "Love Our Sprayer"
from Shawnee, Ks.
I save $22 each time I wash my Peek-A-Poo in the double kitchen sink.Works GREAT, looks good and my little Jingle "Belle" loves the calm spray.It has an inner lip. Make sure you push it up ALL the way on to the faucet. You will have NO problems. Well worth the money.

About 2002SuperSport's Garage
My first car
1977 Oldsmobile Regency 98
Chocolate Brown with cream colored vinyl top with the peeling flaking option. Driver's door was held together with wood screws. Head liner was held up with wooden slats. Bald tires, carpet remnants for floor mats, rotted vacuum lines, leaking head gasket... the car could not be killed.
Car I wish I still had
'87 GrandAm V6. 120HP 3.0 V6 Monster LOL. Owned it for 11 years. Styling that held up well, fun to drive, handled well, didn't use much gas, easy to work on. I cut my detailing teeth on this car and after 11 years it didn't look 11 years old. Impending transmission failure and my desire to move to an FBody convertible ended our time together. You don't see that gen of GrandAm around anymore.
My dream car
More than one and WAY too many to list here. Only garage space and money hold me back from building a fleet. '70 Chevelle, '87 Grand National, C6 Convertible Z51, Of course, gotta have a '57 Belair. Lately, I've been looking hard at late model Camaro 2nd Gens ('78 to '81) and '67 - '68 Firebird convertibles. Also, any Corvette prior to '73. Late model Maseratti convertibles, Class Aston Martons and Jags, and I've seriously think that Ferrari 308s and 328's could be a great investment. But, my Camaro SS isn't going anywhere!

Consumer News Release
For immediate release - Thursday, January 13, 2005. Contact Bob Brammer - 515-281-6699.
DES MOINES. Attorney General Tom Miller announced today that 42 states including Iowa have entered into a consumer protection settlement with National Research Center for College and University Admissions., Inc. (NRCCUA) concerning the company's past collection of personal information through high school student surveys. ["AVC" settlement, or Assurance of Voluntary Compliance.]
The states alleged that NRCCUA represented or implied that the information it collected from high school students was shared only with colleges, universities and other entities for recruitment and other education-related services when, in fact, NRCCUA also shared the information with commercial entities that used the information to solicit the students for the sale of educational and non-educational commercial products or services.
NRCCUA did not admit any violations in settling the matter but agreed to change its practices as required by the AVC. In the AVC, NRCCUA stated that it had ceased permitting use of the student data for non-educational-related marketing purposes in 2002.
National Research Center for College and University Admissions, Inc., a Missouri not-for-profit corporation headquartered in Lee's Summit, Missouri, surveys and collects information from millions of high school students each year. In 2001, it collected personal information from more than 2 million high school students who completed its surveys. In the settlement with the states, NRCCUA says its "annual Surveys enable more than 5 million high students to indicate their unique college and career preferences to over 1200 colleges and universities."
NRCCUA and similar organizations provide surveys to U.S. high school teachers and guidance counselors and request that they be given to students to complete. Students may also complete the survey on-line via the Internet.
The NRCCUA surveys ask students for personal information, such as their name, address, gender, grade point average, date of birth, academic and occupational interests, racial or ethnic background, and, in the event the student is interested in attending a college with a religious affiliation, the denomination of their choice. Some of the entities, but not NRCCUA, also provide surveys to be given to junior high school students.
The settlement, through an Assurance of Voluntary Compliance ("AVC") requires NRCCUA:
The Iowa Attorney General's Office led the group of states that negotiated the agreement.
Attorney General Tom Miller said: "This agreement is all about requiring a company to respect the privacy interests of students and parents. It clarifies the company's obligation to disclose how information will be used, and to give students and parents a clear right to keep student information private."
Miller said that parents of high school and junior high school students should be aware that their children may be asked to complete surveys like those of NRCCUA and others. "Federal law allows parents to tell schools not to give certain surveys to their children," he said. He said the same right to opt out of completing the surveys is given to high school students aged 18 and older.
As part of the settlement, NRCCUA will make a payment of $300,000 to the states to be used for attorneys' fees and investigative costs, consumer education, litigation, or for public protection or local consumer aid funds.
The 42 states joining the AVC are: AK, AL, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, HI, ID, IL, IA, KY, LA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MS, MT, NJ, NY, NV, NC, ND, NM, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY.

Please be advised that due to accent difficulties it may be easier to contact him via email. Also this will reduce the chances of him engaging you in a long-winded spiel about the latest injustices done to the NZ cricket team.
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Dan Callaghan - CRN Technical Production Coordinator
By happy circumstance Dan had no choice but to get involved with community radio. Crashing wildly into uni with no idea what to do he decided on social sciences. It was excruciatingly dull. Some years later the administrators were allowed to push him out the other side with something called a 'Creative Industries' degree. The bit of paper he got at the end says it has something to do with 'social sciences', 'journalism' and 'audio engineering'...
Somehow it was enough for Brisbane's 4ZZZ to let Dan join their production department as a promotions producer then production coordinator, grant writer, archivist, trainer, and tech for events programs and outside broadcasts. Despite Brisbane being awesome, Sydney beckoned. Double-decker trains are still a novelty.

The Composers
A piece of music is attributed to "Anon" if we do not know who wrote it. There are several ways this can happen.
Some music, particularly folk songs, have been handed down for centuries without being written down. Presumably someone composed them, but by the time people like Bartók, Vaughan Williams and Percy Grainger went around collecting folk songs, many attributed the tunes as "traditional". Thanks to the "Chinese Whispers" effect of passing on a tune by ear, the music had been shaped and changed with the times.
There are also written pieces that are difficult to identify. Before photocopiers existed, most music was copied by hand, making the age of the paper and handwriting not reliable indicators of age or provenance. If the title page gets lost, we can only listen to the music to see if the style is familiar. If the work is by somebody obscure, or if it isn't a good example of their work, it becomes more difficult to identify.
Copyright violation was abundant in the classical period, with many copying pieces and pretending that they had written them, or producing forgeries of the works of famous composers. As with paintings, once a piece has been identified as a fake, it can be virtually impossible to work out the composer.
There is a lot of debate about certain "anonymous" works. There are claims that "Greensleeves" was written by King Henry VIII although, having listened to some of the other things attributed to him, this seems rather unlikely. One must use a good sense of judgment and have a good musical ear to properly attribute these anonymous works to a particular composer.
