HKTDC Hong Kong Int'l Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition)
HKTDC Hong Kong Int'l Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition)
offers opportunities for vendors and buyers to establish 'green' credentials
28 Sept 2012 - HKTDC Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition) will be held 27-30 October at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. A new exhibitor record with 2,170 exhibitors will be present with the Czech Republic represented for the first time. The fair will offer diversified exhibition zones, present seminars featuring the latest lighting trends and industry updates, and introduce the Hong Kong International Lighting Products Award.
Industry trends in recent years have been towards energy conservation and environmentally-friendly lighting. To meet industry needs, the fair once again highlights its LED and Green Lighting zone, which is expected to bring together over 800 exhibitors to showcase innovations in the field. The fair will also present a brand new Advertising Lighting Zone for LED display panels, light boxes and neon signs, and a Smart Lighting & Solutions Zone, for smart lighting switch/control panels and tailor-made lighting solution packages.
The Hall of Aurora also returns to the spotlight, showcasing over 430 quality brands from 27 countries and regions. Well-known names such as ASFOUR, BJB, Citizen, CREE, EGLO, EVERLIGHT, Fulham, Fumagalli, MEGAMAN, Neo-Neon, OPTILED, Philips, Seoul Semiconductor, Viri Bright and Vossloh-Schwabe will shine in the Hall of Aurora.
Other exhibition zones include Commercial Lighting, Household Lighting, Outdoor Lighting and Lighting Accessories, Parts & Components. A new section, Batteries/Transformers/Drivers is part of the Lighting Accessories, Parts & Components Zone this year.
The Unstoppable Green Trend
Products with LED and sensor switch technology are now part of the mainstream market. For example, a ceiling fan with light can reduce an electricity bill by 10% - 40%. Nanoflex NFX-ID Series, the winner of Green Building Award 2012, can save 25% power; Intelligent LED Lighting System with wireless Dimmer and a light with IPR sensor are also expected to be hot products in the show.
Information events
The Autumn Edition continues to make a contribution to the industry through its seminars. Seminar topics include market trends in LED lighting and its application, and relevant lighting regulations and standards. The Hong Kong Solid State Lighting Industry Conference will also be co-organised on the last day of the fair by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, the Hong Kong Electronics Industries Association and the Hong Kong Productivity Council.
Hot feedback for debut Products Award
The Hong Kong International Lighting Products Award 2012 is organised for the first time to highlight lighting products of superb quality and design. The inaugural event has attracted over 140 entries. The Award consists of four categories: lighting source, architectural/commercial lighting, decorative indoor lighting and outdoor lighting. Besides the Best of the Fair Award for each category, there are also the Most Innovative Award, Best Eco Design Award and Best Hong Kong Design Award. The Award Presentation Ceremony will be held during the Networking Reception on the fair's first day and winning products will be displayed at Hall 1A Concourse throughout the fair period.
Small-Order Zone proves popular
A number of overseas importers and distributors favour smaller orders with higher frequency and shorter delivery lead times in order to minimise inventory. To provide business opportunities to this category of sellers and buyers, the Small-Order Zone will be set up at Expo Drive to showcase products suitable for ordering in small quantities. HKTDC's data indicates that the zone succeeded in attracting more than 56,000 buyers and generated over 35,000 business connections in several fairs since April 2012.
Concurrent opportunities for buyers
Buyers can visit Eco Expo Asia, which runs from 27-30 October at AsiaWorld-Expo, to find out more about green products and services. HKTDC Hong Kong International Building and Decoration Materials & Hardware Fair and Sports Source Asia, also at AsiaWorld-Expo, are underway 27-29 October and 28-30 October respectively.

A man accused of killing a homeless man will stand trial.
A Douglas County judge found there was enough evidence against Michael Exley and denied him bond Friday.
Omaha police said Exley stabbed and killed 55-year-old Larry Morgan during a fight at the Sienna/Francis House near 18th and Nicholas streets last month.
Exley is charged with second-degree murder and use of a weapon to commit a felony.

Chewed Art
The Dogs of Deconstruction
This is the funniest dog book you will ever read. Imagine dogs as artists rather than agents of destruction.
Every day since humans domesticated dogs, there has been someone standing at the entrance of the cave, teepee, or home yelling, "Has anyone seen my other shoe?"
Chewed Art humorously presents the works of dog artists crafting at the level of van Gogh, Bernini, and da Vinci. Until these works hang side-by-side in museums, we chronicle the breadth of mastery, the compulsion of creativity, and the power of passion. The book's one hundred ninety-four pages include ninety-seven full-page photographs by award-winning photographer Christopher Ward. The photos and in-depth hilarious analysis detail the depth of this artistic revolution. Prepare to laugh, learn, and gasp as you immerse yourself in the Deconstructionist Art Movement.
Your dogs await…

The navigation array has a spacious design with user-friendly controls. There's a four-way toggle with a central OK button, two soft keys, Talk and End/power controls, a Back button, and a dedicated speakerphone button. Though we always welcome the speakerphone button, the icon on that particular key wasn't very obvious. The toggle doubles as a shortcut to four oft-used features, but it's annoying that the OK button won't open the menu when the phone is in standby mode. Most of the controls are relatively flat with the surface of the phone, but we were able to dial by feel most of the time. The keypad buttons are also flush, but they're large for the phone's size and are lit by a bright backlight.
The Marbl's features could hardly be any simpler. The phone book is small, with just 200 contacts, but each entry holds six phone numbers, two e-mail address, two Web addresses, two street addresses, and notes. You can save callers to groups, but only groups can be paired with one of the four (yes, you get only four) polyphonic ringtones. You can assign groups a photo as well, but keep in mind that without a camera, multimedia messaging, or an external display it's all a bit pointless.
Other features are decent for this caliber of phone. Inside you'll find a vibrate mode, text messaging, a speakerphone, a voice memo recorder, a calculator, an alarm clock, a stopwatch, a scheduler, a countdown timer, and a tip calculator. The Marbl also supports speed dialing, and we were excited to find voice dialing onboard as well.
You can personalize the Marbl with a variety of color themes, wallpapers, screensavers, and alert sounds. Personalization has always been a big Virgin Mobile theme, so naturally you can get more options via the WAP 2.0 wireless Web browser and the carrier's VirginXL service. For playtime, the Marbl offers two games: Brick Attack and Race 21.
We tested the dual-band (CDMA 800/1900) Marbl in San Francisco using Virgin Mobile service, which operates on Sprint's network. Call quality was pretty good; volume was quite loud, and voices sounded natural for the most part. At times the audio sounded a little tinny, but it was nothing that was particularly bothersome. Callers didn't report any significant problems on their end, though they could tell we were using a cell phone. Speakerphone quality was about the same.
The Marbl has a rated battery life of 3.8 hours talk time and nine days standby time. Our tests came close, with a rated talk time of 3 hours and 57 minutes.

8 Thus says the Lord God: Because Moab said, The house of Judah is like all the other nations, | 8 "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: 'Because Moab and Seir said, "Look, the house of Judah has become like all the other nations," |
9 therefore I will lay open the flank of Moab from the towns on its frontier, the glory of the country, Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim. | 9 therefore I will expose the flank of Moab, beginning at its frontier towns--Beth Jeshimoth, Baal Meon and Kiriathaim--the glory of that land. |
10 I will give it along with Ammon to the people of the east as a possession. Thus Ammon shall be remembered no more among the nations, | 10 I will give Moab along with the Ammonites to the people of the East as a possession, so that the Ammonites will not be remembered among the nations; |
11 and I will execute judgments upon Moab. Then they shall know that I am the Lord. | 11 and I will inflict punishment on Moab. Then they will know that I am the LORD.' " |

Americans spent more going out to eat and shopping in August — maybe because they filled the gas tank for less.
Lower gas prices appear to be supporting consumer spending at retailers and restaurants, economists said Friday.
Friday's report on retail sales from the Commerce Department showed that retail sales rose 0.6% in August, but that was dragged down by a drop in spending at gas stations. After excluding gasoline, spending rose 0.7% in August. Read More »

Spring books taking young readers all over the map
Preschool and elementary-school readers will find everything from puppies and kittens to women's rights and young love in new books this...
Special to The Seattle Times
Jeanne Birdsall
The author of "The Penderwicks on Gardam Street" will appear at 7 p.m. Wednesday, All for Kids Books & Music, 2900 N.E. Blakeley St., Seattle (206-526-2768) and at 7 p.m. Thursday, Borders Books & Music, 16549 N.E. 74th St., Redmond (425-869-1907).Preschool and elementary-school readers will find everything from puppies and kittens to women's rights and young love in new books this spring.
Picture books
Three little kittens spend spring, summer and fall nervously anticipating the cold, wet snow of winter in "A Kitten Tale" (Random House, 32 pp., $15.99, ages 3-6, written and illustrated by Caldecott Medal winner Eric Rohmann. But the fourth kitten insists, "I can't wait." The simple yet expressive artwork shows the kittens discovering snowflakes are fun after all.
Linda Ashman's poetry in "Stella, Unleashed" (Sterling, 40 pp., $14.95, ages 4-9) is as cheeky and exuberant as a puppy. Told from a dog's perspective (Stella chooses her family when they come to the animal shelter), the humorous rhymes aren't forced or cloying. Illustrator Paul Meisel's playful paintings match Stella's enthusiasm, whether she's licking ice-cream cones or bounding around a dog park. As Stella observes, "I welcome guests with friendliness/(unlike the snooty cat)./Trouble is, I greet so well,/I sometimes knock them flat."
Nature lovers — and Seattle is full of them — will want to pick up Jim Arnosky's "Wild Tracks" (Sterling, 32 pp., $14.95, ages 5-10). Ever wondered if paw prints along a trail belong to a coyote — or just a dog? Fold-out pages show life-size tracks from the deer, feline and canine families; other pages explain how to identify everything from reptile to bird to bear signs. The informative text also offers clues on interpreting tracks. Reverse hoof prints, for example, indicate a deer made an abrupt turn to run away; dogs often wander aimlessly, while their wary wild cousins take more direct routes.
Author Philip Dray focuses on "the daring life of a crusading journalist" in "Yours for Justice, Ida B. Wells" (Peachtree, 48 pp., $18.95, ages 9-12). Wells, born a slave in 1862, helped raise six younger siblings after her parents' death, filed a lawsuit against segregation rules, and despite personal threats, wrote several newspaper exposes on lynching after a good friend was murdered. The disturbing topic is treated seriously but not explicitly; the text explains that lynching is "execution outside the law." Stephen Alcorn's stylized drawings — including a large arm saying "Whites Only" pushing down a black man and Ida rising like a genie out of an ink bottle — beautifully and effectively convey the book's message to its older audience.
The 1917 fight for women's right to vote — and the Nineteenth Amendment politics of the "Suffs" versus the "Antis" — serve as the background of Karen Schwabach's novel "The Hope Chest" (Random House, 274 pp., $16.99, ages 9-13). Eleven-year-old Violet hasn't seen her older sister Chloe in three years, since Chloe angered their parents and drove off in her scandalous car, slyly dubbed The Hope Chest. After finding her mother's hidden cache of Chloe's letters, Violet tracks her sister to New York City and then Tennessee, meeting a young black girl, Myrtle, and Chloe's old boyfriend along the way. The mix of segregation, discrimination and politics is a lot to tackle in one book, but Violet and Myrtle's adventures keep the pace tight and the narrative voice compelling.
The four sisters from Jeanne Birdsall's National Book Award-winning "The Penderwicks" are back home in "The Penderwicks on Gardam Street" (Knopf Books for Young Readers, 288 pp., $15.99, ages 9-13). The girls devise a "Save Daddy Plan" when their aunt insists their widowed father start dating again. Good-natured deviousness ensues, with several side stories about a cute boy, switched homework and a new next-door neighbor. Readers familiar with the first book will understand more background and references but the new one stands on its own. It's all old-fashioned fun; even the villain gets taken down by a football.

The "rule of law" has served as the backbone of democracy from America's founding. First, all Americans agree to be held accountable under the law. To secure that consent, the process to enact, administer and enforce those laws must be transparent, democratically accessible, and impartial. While that process has rarely been perfect, it has consistently created stable, predictable laws that serve as the guide rails for civil society.
The last several decades have marked a continued erosion of the rule of law in America's federal government. The gradual change has resulted from Congress ceding its constitutional powers, leaving essentially a type of ad hoc rule by the President and the executive branch agencies.
For example, most of the recent political battles related to the EPA involve legislative authority delegated to the agency under the Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act. The last major amendments to those laws by Congress occurred in 1987 and 1990 respectively. Since then, the executive branch has used its tremendous regulatory power to essentially create updated versions of the laws that carry the same force as those duly enacted several decades ago. more >>
Have you ever wondered why you vote the way you vote? It seems it is a little more complex and a little less comical than some would like to make it.
Take the recent study by National Media Research Planning and Placement suggesting there might be a link between Republicans, Democrats and the type of alcohol they prefer. The study seems to be nothing more than an amusing diversion at best. Seems a better analysis would include having bartenders use the information to do some predictive analysis about which patrons are more likely to pay for their own drinks as opposed to those who might try to get their drinks for free.
Or how about the new study which will probably make the rounds on late night comedy shows from The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science which found that felons favored Democrats six-to-one in three states which allow felons to vote, post incarceration, according to the Washington Examiner. more >>
With skyrocketing tuition, there is no denying that college is too expensive. My friend, Professor Richard Vedder of Ohio University, has produced a lifetime of work showing that colleges' hefty price is directly related to students' easy access to Federal Pell grants and student loans. Those taxpayer-subsidized funds allow universities to handsomely compensate tenured professors who rarely teach and ensure administrators at state institutions remain the highest paid public employees in America.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out this model is unsustainable. With student loans already surpassing $1.2 trillion, this is a financial bubble ready to burst. And the failure will be another burden on taxpayers because these loans are backed by the government. That is why we must insist that public colleges and universities model their business practices after private industry, such as incentivizing schools to reduce the time it takes to graduate and to reduce budgets by outsourcing services which can be performed better and more economically by the private sector.
Privatized dorm buildings, food services, and busing contracts are some good examples of public colleges and universities contracting services to save taxpayers money. But one important outsourcing idea is under attack by the Obama administration and government bureaucrats. more >>
President Obama is packing his bags for a 17-day, taxpayer-funded Christmas vacation to Hawaii, The Washington Times reported. The vacation begins on Friday, December 20.
The first family will reportedly be shacking up at a palatial oceanfront home that rents for $24,500 a week. When you toss in the shaved ice, greens fees, and gas for Air Force One, the American taxpayers could be on the hook for one mighty expensive Hawaiian holiday.
The Hawaii Reporter ran the numbers on last year's trip and found that it cost taxpayers more than $4 million. That's some pricy poi. more >>
Given the magnitude of the Obamacare debacle, it's hard to imagine how Republicans could manage to one-up the dysfunction and dissolution of the Democrat party. Much to the delight of the media, however, the GOP has managed to redirect the spotlight away from the train wreck of the Affordable Care Act in exchange for its own dog and pony show.
Frustrated by conservative criticisms of the recently passed House budget compromise, Speaker John Boehner has declared open season on "outside conservative groups," claiming that their criticism of the budget deal is mere window dressing designed to foment grassroots anger against the "establishment":
"They are not fighting for conservative principles," Mr. Boehner told rank-and-file House Republicans during a private meeting on Wednesday as he seethed and questioned the motives of the groups for piling on against the plan before it was even made public. "They are not fighting for conservative policy," he continued, according to accounts of those present. "They are fighting to expand their lists, raise more money and grow their organizations, and they are using you to do it. It's ridiculous." more >>
A new study just published by the National Institute on Retirement Security – Race and Retirement Insecurity in the United States- presents a dismal snapshot of the state of retirement savings of minority American families.
It reports that 54.3 percent of blacks work for employers that offer retirement plans compared to 62.3 percent of whites. And 43.9 percent of blacks participate in those plans compared to 53.9 percent of whites.
Among Latinos, 37.8 percent work for employers with retirement plans and just 29.7 percent participate. more >>

Last day in China
My last day in China - ah what a shame! It was an extremely relaxed day filled with admin more than anything else. After a long sleep I hung around the hostel reading and blogging, not wanting to expose myself to the rubbish weather. I went for a walk along the seaside anyway though and had a brief walk along the old quarter to grab a coffee. When I got back the adorable hostel staff offered to help me with booking ...

They played with the rules that the 2 people who lost the round had 2 a forfeit. They now have a video of me doing Gangam style with a donkey mask on, and I came away from the game with a lot of Chinese ink drawn on my face. Its really lovely how welcoming they all ...

Jeep Grand Cherokee Maintenance and Repair
ladydi_87 Posts: 6When the outside temperature dips below about 25 degrees, my Jeep has an issue where it won't down shift. The engine temp needs to be at about 210 before the engine backs off and the RPM will finally dip from about 22k to 18K. No problems at all when the engine is warm. Just mainly in the morning when it's cold out. Any ideas? Have the 4.0L with 119K miles. --- Di
imiddendorf Posts: 4I have the inline 6 4.0L engine, Im not exactly sure what the 4wd system is called, but its not the quad drive, you manually can shift from 2 wheel to 4 part time, 4 full time and 4 lo. The noise is only when I put it in reverse and gets louder the longer I leave it in reverse. Once I put it in drive the noise is gone. Any ideas?
Thanks for your help. -

watsonjeep Posts: 1I have a problem starting my 97 grand cherokee. doesnt seem to be the battery or alternator because it will crank, but then immediately shut off. When i give it gas right after i crank it, it will stay on until i release the gas. I've been told it might be a clogged fuel filter, bad fuel injector, or maybe fuel pump. Any ideas on what it might be? and how difficult/expensive is it to replace any of the above parts?
suziee Posts: 2My 2003 Grand Cherokee Passenger rear window is stuck mid point. I noticed a year after I bought it (used) that it would not come down when I tried to activate from the driver controls. No big deal as its usually just me in the car. Well my husbands son pushed the button from the back seat and it came down about 3 inchs and stopped, won't go up or down. Any suggestions without taking it to the dealer. I love my Jeep but my hubby says it nickling and dimeing us to death.
freedombaby Posts: 1
wlbrown9 Posts: 849A lot of recent vehicles will not shift into 4th (overdrive) until the tranmission reachs a certain operating temp. We used to have a '00 Grand Cherokee and I think it did that. We currently have the wife's '04 Envoy XL and my '00 Trooper. The Trooper does that every cool/cold day...I'm pretty sure the Envoy does that as well. So, with a 4 sp auto, behavior is like running in 3rd for the first couple of miles.
amz1600 Posts: 5I have the same thing wrong with my 2004 jeep grand cherokee. I have found a couple of forums that say that it will cost between $1000 and $2000 with maintenance. I am past my warrenty, so I contacted Chysler and they said I am out of luck and they won't fix it. So then I contacted this website, through the government, to try to get a recall. http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/ivoq/ They haven't contacted me back yet, but I hope it will turn out to be a recal. I live in Minnesota so I can't defrost my passenger side of the windshield, so it is safety hazard.
rollj Posts: 13You might want to try replacing the IAC motor (Idle Air Control Motor). On fuel injected vehicles the gas pedal acts more like an air pedal. When you depress the gas pedal you are opening the trottle body and turning the TPS sensor(Throttle Postioning Sensor). When you dont have the gas pedal depressed, a little electric motor usually on the Throttle body, opens up to still feed the motor air. If this motor is not working properly then no air gets to the motor, causing it to stall. The part is usually inexpensive and easy to replace. I would suggest instead of chasing down electrical problems, you start with this. It it doesn't fix the problem, return the IAC motor and get your money back.
70ss454_man Posts: 107my son has a 1994 jeep grand cherokee 5.2, his first car. the other day he came in saying his jeep wouldnt start, and since he is a gear head i didnt contribute it to something dinky.
it acts like it wants to start, like watsonjeep's problem, except his does not run no matter what. it cranks, starts to fire, then immediately returns to cranking. the odd thing aobut this though, is once its cranking, it wants to start exactly like normal, but cant. so the crank time is consistant, and within 1 sec it dies. if you hold the key down and let it crank, it repeats over ad over. i have tried it with my foot to the floor. it WILL NOT START AND RUN. ever since yesterday we have been trying and the same thing happens. we did check the alarm system, and turned the key in the door, no luck. -
xscout Posts: 141Treat it like a screwed up computer. Disconnect the battery, turn the lights on to drain any remaining juice in the system, and then hook it back up. Make sure your battery connections are spotless. This may not do it, but it worked for me once and it don't cost nothing but a few minutes of your time.

tripledragons Posts: 1My 99 gcl has no defrost or heat. It satrted on the passenger side the over the summer te drivers side went. I took it to a dealer and for 1500 the said they could fix it. Apparently the blend air door and the a/c temp sensor motors have gone bad. Each motor cost about 90 dollars. I took my dash apart and replaced the motors myself but I still have no heat!! I'm not sure what to do now. I have a 12 volt heater rigged up for the mean time. hopefully it doesnt get much colder
xscout Posts: 141Black boxes are certainly not my area of expertise. But it seems as since you can restart over and over again before it shuts down that you have: Fuel pressure,spark, air and they are all coming together properly for at least a second. It just sounds like something (computer?)is cutting the spark to shut it down that quickly.
rollj Posts: 13I have already posted this question before but I wanted to see if anyone else was having this problem as well. I have an 05 JGC Limited with a 5.7 hemi and during a mild or "regular" acceleration i am hearing a ticking from the front drivers side of the vehicle. This is most noticeable when accelerating next to a wall because the noise resonates off of it. I have had it in and out of the dealership several times for this problem. It sounds like an exhaust leak but the dealership has assured me that they have pressure checked the entire exhaust and there are no leaks. Can anyone with the hemi engine check this and let me know if there is does the same. Also if anyone has any information on this i would appreciate it if they could let me know.
howie56 Posts: 21I do believe that the sound that your hearing is the air pump attached to the fender wall and at times it can get very loud as I had mine checked on my 04 JGC for the same noise and I also hear it on my Hemi but after the explenation from the last time I haven't bothered this time.
Not sure if this is what your problem is but thought I'd give you my info.. Best of Luck. :shades: -
70ss454_man Posts: 107
chicagogal1 Posts: 2I don't know if it's the weather or if my car is about to die but it sounds like it's on its last legs. I think it's the shift from 3rd to 4th that is going goofy because when I get to about 40mph and press the gas pedal, the rpms will go up to 5k if I'm not watching. When I back off the gas and slow the rpms, eventually it will catch and I can then speed up. This happens after a cold night usually even if I give it 15 minutes to warm up in the morning. Also, when I'm idling at a stoplight I need to put the car in neutral in order to avoid a stall. Kind of weird but this has been happening more and more frequently.
rollj Posts: 13I haven't heard of any air pump on these vehicles. I'm actually not sure what you mean by air pump, the only air pump that i've heard of is for emissions and those where only used in the late 80's and early 90's. The only explination i have been given is it's from the catalytic converters. I have actually heard the tick on several of the hemi JGC and im curious how DC can issue TSB's on very stupid complaints and not have addressed this issue. If you could can you let me know what air pump you are refering to.
P.S. a very good source of TSB's and all other information on all JGC is http://www.wkjeeps.com/. -
sixstar08 Posts: 2I've got a 2001 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 Sport with and Auto Trans. It's just when over 70K miles. I've just recently noticed that when driving at 50 or better it seems to jump between gears. When going 50mph it will jump from about 1500rpm to about 2100rpm. There is no change in modulation to the gas pedal and this is done on a flat road so there is no change in hill accent/decent. I first noticed the problem when the car was going between 60-70mph. The RPM's will jump up for a little bit then jump back down. It will continue to do this for a while. I'm not sure how long this would go on as my typical drives are not great in distance. It has been getting significantly colder and I am wondering if that could be part of the problem, but I fear that this isn't it. My inclination is that it might be: a sensor, something with the transmission, or throttle body (just putting it out there). Has anyone had a similar problem or knowledge of potential solutions to this problem?
70ss454_man Posts: 107
patdower Posts: 11when i start my Jeep the oil pressure is a little lower than normal, as it warms the pressure drops, eventually to zero and the check guages light comes on. When I accelerate the check guages light shuts off and the pressure rises slightly, only a little bit! I have plenty of oil, and I had it changed 3000 miles ago. What is my Jeeps problem?

The benefits of payday loans are wide ranging. They help many people get out of tough situations every single day. These are people who many times have absolutely no other way to get money for an emergency crisis that has arisen in their lives. The concept is that cash advance lenders are loaning money to pay for emergency bills and expenses when no other loan institution will do it for them controversy is the rates that are being charged.
Some people believe that paying 20% for a loan within a week or month is way too much. Others might say that it really depends on the emergency the loan fixes. Such as, if you need $100 to finish paying your rent for the month and the amount of the late payment is more than the amount of the payday loan. In such an instance getting a 20% charge until your next payday may seem a bit more reasonable.
You can even go as far as to say if you cannot get that last $100 then the owner will through you out on the street. That's you, your wife and kids with no where to leave for a while… A payday loan, at least for the immediate crisis, could be considered a life line for such a situation.
Payday Loan Lenders:
When it comes to cash advance lenders there is no better place to find them other than online where they are much more accessible. Nothing can be better than being in a financial crisis situation and being able to handle that cash problem right from the comfort and convenience of your own home.
Direct payday lenders no third party:
You can get a payday loan approved in just 15 minutes online either by being part of a data base system or going through a direct lender. In no time at all you can have the urgent cash you need deposited right into your account within 24 hours. Talk about fast overnight loans and the only choice you have is the cash advance loan industry. When you need fast cash up to $1000 or more in a great big hurry, and your credit isn't that great, or even if it is terrible you can still be approved for a instant payday loan even with bad credit. Yes, that's correct you can still get online payday loans with no credit checks.
Online Payday Loan Companies:
It is all made possible because these are no credit check loans, brought to you by some of the best online payday loan companies that provide next day loans 365 days a year. Read all about the process here.
Cash advance companies are well known for working with clients with some of the worst credit histories. They are available to turn to for cash when no other lenders can and remember you can apply with confidential direct payday lenders no third party only where you share your information with only one company.

My name is Candy Q!
Candy Q's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, not good with kids, and good with dogs.
Candy is a little lady who is about 2 1/2 yrs old and weighs about 19 lbs.
She arrived at the rescue after she and about 50 other dogs were owner surrendered from a hoarding situation to a shelter that could not accommodate them. She's in great health, loves to play and is all ears;. Candy was a little shy when she arrived but is now well adjusted and loves other dogs and people. She is also crate trained. Candy has spent way too much of her short life in various kennel-type living arrangements -- she is so deserving of a real home to call her own. We don't know what may have happened to Candy in the past, but for some reason she does not like young children, so she would be best in a home with older children and adults. If you think she'd be a good fit for your family, please go to: www.heavencanwaitanimalrescue.com and fill out an application today!

About Heaven Can Wait Animal Rescue
About Our Rescue Group...
Heaven Can Wait began it's journey of saving lives in October of 2010. 4 women, 1 dream, and mission of saving dogs. We all have volunteered in shelters and realized that shelter pets needed another option, because for most of them when their time was up, that was it.January of 2012 we opened our "Lodge"(we call it that cause we DO NOT like the shelter word and we try not to even say it around our dogs). It's amazing, we try to make our dogs feel as comfortable and at home as possible. Because after all we are preparing them for their furever home.
We are a small rescue and we are so proud of all of the lives we have saved and are going to save....this is only the beginning. Also, we are helping our community become educated about pet care, spay and neuter, and what a shelter life can be for an animal.
Last but not least I have to brag about our volunteers, without them we could not exist. They are truly the backbone, they foster, help with fundraisers, network our dogs, and most of all have the same passion we do.
We are strictly a non-profit rescue located in a small southern Kentucky town. We survive off of fundraiser and donations. We decided early on that we wanted to keep all of our pups on a consistent diet all the time.
If you want to help this is a great way to help because the second largest expense we have is dog food. We feed Pedigree adult food, Purina puppy chow and who could forget about the Milk Bones!! Everyone needs to be rewarded right.
There are all kinds of ways you can help: Help network our pets for adoption, donate to the day to day use items such as:paper towels, bleach, Pedigree dog food, Milk Bones, dish washing detergent, laundry detergent, dog toy, collars, leashes, blankets, kundra beds, foster, ect.
Come Meet Our Pets...
We do our meet and greet and adoptions by appointment only.Please call 270.847.9544 if you would like to schedule an appointment.

"I thought this was a lovely cake. Like the other reviewers I just about halved the sugar, and it was plenty sweet. The apples I used were from a friends tree and were quite tart. It was a nice combo with the sweetness. And like the other reviewers said the batter is very thick, just about like cookie dough. It loosens up a bit with the apples a..."

"Soooo perfect for low carbing it! I did stir it too long on the stove and it curdled a bit but now I know when to stop. So delicious it great because you dont have to use very much artificial sweetener which I try to avoid using too much of, but it still tastes yummy."
"these are great! really good idea. Ive made these twice now. And disappeared so quick both times. I used a mixed herb blend instead of what is listed and I also put some ground LSA in the coating mix (Linseed {AKA flaxseed}, Sunflower seed, Almond meal) because we are trying to work it into our diets. They turned out soooo yummy. Thanks for po..."
"This was soo yum! FIrst time to make Shepherds pie. I was low carbing it so I used garlic mashed cauliflower on top instead of potatoes.

"This is a great recipe! I have made it twice now and both times it everyone loved it and wished there had been more.

Angry Birds developer and publisher Rovio Entertainment's financial results for 2013 have indicated the company's growth has plateaued.
The Finnish studio reported revenues of €156m (£128m) for 2013, an increase of just 2.5 per cent year-on-year. By comparison, its revenue in 2012 reached €152.2, more than doubling the €75.6m Angry Birds generated in 2011.
Profits, meanwhile, have halved from to €55 million in 2012 to about €27 million a year later.
In a post on the company's website Rovio CFO Herkko Soinine said "after three years of very strong growth, 2013 was a foundation-building year".
In addition to releasing various games in 2013, Rovio launched distribution channel ToonsTV, a third-party game publishing initiative called Rovio Stars, and launched a number of Angry Birds related attractions in amusement parks worldwide.
"We invested in new business areas, such as animation and video distribution, ventured into new business models in games, and consolidated our strong market position in consumer products licensing. With these investments we have been gearing up for the future growing markets."
Mikael Hed, chief executive of Rovio, added that the company's non-gaming ventures has given it a strong footing in the broader variety of entertainment industries.
"Building on top of our games business, where we moved into free-to-play, Rovio set its foot strongly into the entertainment business," he said. "In 2013 we formed a world-class movie animation production team in Los Angeles that is already working on the first Angry Birds feature film, to be globally premiered in July 2016.
"In addition we built the biggest animation studio in the Nordics for the production of animated TV content, bringing to market 42 Angry Birds Toons episodes in its first year. In launching ToonsTV, we introduced new means of content delivery, with 2 billion views already. On the licensing side, we continued to push digital and physical integration.
Looking forward, Soininen said the company's business in the future depends on whether investments and initiatives launched in 2013 bear fruit.
"We're creating long lasting business, and strongly believe our entertainment strategy will consolidate Rovio's position as one of the world's most beloved brands," said Hed.

The asking price for the Steinway Mansion has dropped at least $1 million, but the friends' group of the Astoria landmark isn't pleased with what the decrease means.
Michele Kazarian, the executor of the property, has offered the home and three of the property's seven plots to interested parties for $1.9 million.
The Friends of Steinway Mansion, which formed in late-February and seeks to purchase the property to be turned into a museum, doesn't want the land split up.
"We want to buy the entire parcel of land," Bob Singleton, executive director of the Greater Astoria Historical Society and founder of the friends group, said. "We will discuss this with Michele."
Going forward they will be working with Kazarian to host a fundraiser at the mansion, Singleton said. The main goals of the effort will be to raise money to purchase the full property, to earmark money for heating bills and taxes, and thirdly, to pay for a full restoration, which will be "pricey," Singleton said.
Restoration to its original state would cost $500 to $1 million, according to Paul Halvatzis, associate broker at Amorelli Realty. The light-industrial zoned complete property has been listed with the Astoria firm for the last month at $3.2 million.
"There has been a lot more interest since the price dropped on just the mansion portion of the property," Halvatzis said. "The reality is that we would like to have a group come in and restore the mansion. Someone who really loves the property."
Other expenses for the Friends of Steinway Mansion are buying a domain name and maintaining a bank account, Singleton added. For now all fundraising efforts are conducted by volunteers, not paid workers, he said.
William Steinway, the first president of Steinway & Sons, bought the mansion in the 1870s. After his death, the house was eventually sold to the Halberian family.
The 27-room house, located at 18-33 41 St., has been listed several times since 2010, when its former owner, the late Michael Halberian, Kazarian's father, put it on the market.
Kazarian did not respond to emails by press time.
The GAHS will host a lecture on May 6 updating the community on the progress of the group and condition of the house.

The following post from Casper Wong, COO Financeit, first appeared on The C100′s blog during their 48Hrs in the Valley annual conference.

In the end, my co-founder, Michael Garrity, and I decided to refocus and raise venture capital, which marked the beginning of Financeit and our re

These Dogs Love Taking Baths
Enjoy 66 seconds of video where we see dogs enjoying their bath time.
Enjoy 66 seconds of video where we see dogs enjoying their bath time.
The bond between dog and owner is on full display in this heart-wrenching video.
I don't know what you were planning on doing for the rest of today, but you can put it off until tomorrow. Someone has set up the most adorable live webcam, and these puppies aren't getting any younger.
Around here at work we are all animal lovers so if there is a cute animal video we have to watch! This one is so cute. A puppy is told to go to bed, but just like kids, he has a few words about doing so.
The Abilene Animal Shelter, Rescue the Animals SPCA, the North Shore Animal League and a few Humane societies and animal shelters from around the big country are teaming up for a "Big Country Spring Adoption". Every dog, cat kitten and puppy within 19 counties will be here in Abilene for this major adoption event April 11th - 13th. I will be living in the my custom made dog house at the corner of Catclaw and Southwest Drive.
Have you ever had a question but you thought it was so stupid you wouldn't ask it? Well one of mine just got answered. Seems it wasn't such a stupid question after all. There has been actual research into this situation. I have always wondered why dogs do circles before sitting down or going to the bathroom. I now know the answer.
The 2nd annual Bark for Life Relay from the American Cancer Society (ACS) is scheduled for March 1st at Nelson Park in Abilene. Unlike the 12-hour 'Relay for Life,' the Bark for Life will only go from 9am until 1pm. This fundraiser promises to be a fun and festive event complete with a survivor lap, demonstrations, contests, and games. Bark for Life is a noncompetitive walking event for dogs and their owners. This is a fundraiser and awareness event for the American Cancer Society.
Choosing the 10 Best Super Bowl Commercials of 2014 was no easy task, but we have narrowed this year's library of amazing ads down to the best of the best.
Just when you thought CarMax raised the bar of cuteness with their "Slow Bark" commercial, Budweiser's Super Bowl 2014 commercial went and melted our hearts.
CarMax might have earned an epic slow clap from all the people they've ever given a good deal on a used car, but for this Super Bowl 2014 commercial they also have received a slow bark. That's right, CarMax parodies their own Super Bowl 2014 commercial by reenacting their same exact commercial with puppies instead of actors.
Audi is known for being among the big three of German luxury automakers, so it makes sense that they would go all out in the latest of leaked Super Bowl 2014 commercials. This car commercial features an animal revving through the streets that is as pretty as it is powerful. It's cute, it's ruthless, it's a fashion accessory and it's a trophy breed -- meet the Doberhuahua!
It seems like every day we discover yet another reason to reaffirm the awesomeness of our four-legged friends. For one thing, dogs are super troopers when it comes to our embarrassing Facebook antics.

Kids shouldn't graduate to the front seat until they're 15.
Front-seat air bags and kids don't mix. The bags raise a kid's risk of serious injury and even death in a car crash up to age 14--not just to age 12 as the label in your car says--finds new research from Oregon Health and Science University.
A review of traffic accidents involving 3,790 kids ages 1 month to 18 years who were sitting up front found that kids age 14 and younger--no matter what their height or weight--were up to six times more likely to get injured when an air bag deployed than older kids were. Age, not height or weight, determines the development of bones and lean muscle, which protect the body.
Don't wait for labels to change: The authors recommend that kids stay in the back seat until they're 15.

Even though V-8-powered Dusters can be set up to rival the overall performance of many pony cars of the period, the Feather Duster - despite its low-cal load - isn't focused on acceleration, braking, or handling. It seems as if dragging your feet on the ground would stop the car more quickly than applying the unassisted four-wheel drum brakes. Luckily, high speeds aren't readily accessible: the single-barrel Holley carburetor gingerly delivers fuel to the 225-cubic-inch six; the Hurst-shifted four-speed manual requires slow, deliberate movements and a determined stomp on the long-travel clutch; and the wheels are wrapped in squishy Goodyear bias-ply tires and rotated via a tall 2.94:1 axle ratio. Steering feel is an abstract concept, and the beach-ball-sized wheel turns a recirculating-ball setup that isn't power-assisted.
The featherweight version's distinct charm lies in cruising in a comfortable, stylish, and relatively affordable American car caught somewhere between muscle car glory days and OPEC malaise - all while getting respectable fuel mileage (Wintgens has averaged 29 mpg on long interstate jaunts).
Respect, unfortunately, isn't something Dusters often get. Was the car's credibility crippled by its initial popularity and low price? ("America's first super-low-price supercar," touted one commercial in 1970, when the Duster 340 started at an impressive $2547.) Is the negative perception a rub-off from all those Valiants, driven by vast armies of the elderly until the cars rusted into the asphalt, their slant-six engines still purring? It's tough to pin down the reasons for the Plymouth Duster's Rodney Dangerfield-like reputation. Perhaps the Duster is just too strongly identified with its era, a dark time in automotive history ruled by rising gas prices and tightening emissions standards. Or maybe, as contributor Ezra Dyer wrote in these pages after driving a 340-powered example in 2006, "The Duster is nothing if not the ultimate underdog - the bottom-of-the-pecking-order performance car from the defunct division of the smallest company of the Big Three."
So why not love the underdog?

This is a discussion on 5.11 Tactical pants....I get it now within the Related Gear & Equipment forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Originally Posted by fed_wif_a_sig As I mentioned....5.11s are designed by feds and thankfully issued to most of us. I love them puppies and they are ...
The pockets arew distinctive and the right rear carbiner strap sticks out. The average Joe ... maybe not. But to a criminal or another Permit holder I'd assume gun.
Heck, they make me more comfortable. Saw a couple guys at the state fair this year in 5.11's and told my dad they werre carrying. HE didn't believe me so we followed them. One guy leaned a little far and the barest print was visible. strong side. holster also peeked out under cover garment (long dark colored T-shirt.)
For MN specific carry information and a great shooting community, check out forum.twincitiescarry.com
The reason its easy to be made wearing 5.11s is like plbalark said, those who carry for a living have prob been issued them or bought them to look like those who've been issued them. The most requested item by local officers when they attend federal training is 5.11 pants. Add to that most bad guys watch what cops wear like a hawk so to spot them easily and its just like waving a flag. In a crowd when doing diginitary protective details, photographer vest, fanny packs and 5.11 pants are like a guarentee visit by a member by the detail or atleeast a bump a touch. Dont believe me, next time the pres shows up in your town, go to greet him wearing 5.11s a photographer vest and fanny pack. I will promiss you that you'll get individual attention and if not personally pulled aside and talked to you be "bumped" by someone while your in the crowd.
"Respect all ... Fear none!!!
If I want attention, I'll wear a dishdasha or a kameez. That makes the pres. security detail give ya plenty of attention.
"Just blame Sixto"
I just bought a pair of the shorts to check them out. I like to pocket carry and I swear I could pocket carry my P 95 in those front pockets. They are huge. I am going to have to buy a bunch for this summer. As to being made, I haven't seen any news reports of guys being shot for wearing vests, fanny packs or 5.11 pants. And I don't get around the President much. So I don't think I'll worry getting made because I am wearing 5.11 shorts.
sportsmansguide.com has them for about $20.00. They also have a decent return policy, too. I just received my early fall hunting clothes from ala 5.11 digital camo vest and pants.
America should have license to carry "children" laws...

noun \ˈō-pē-əm\: a powerful illegal drug that is made from a type of poppy
Full Definition of OPIUM
Origin of OPIUM
noun \ˈō-pē-əm\ (Medical Dictionary)Medical Definition of OPIUM
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)Organic compound, a narcotic drug known since ancient Greek times, obtained from exuded juice of immature fruit capsules of the opium poppy. Opium has legitimate medical uses, as the source of the alkaloids codeine and morphine and their derivatives. It is also used illicitly, either raw or purified as alkaloids and their derivatives (including heroin). Opium alkaloids of one type (e.g., morphine, codeine) act on the nervous system, mimicking the effects of endorphins; they are analgesic, narcotic, and potentially addicting (see drug addiction). Those of a second type, including papaverine and noscapine, relieve smooth muscle spasms and are not analgesic, narcotic, or addicting. Habitual opium use produces physical and mental deterioration and shortens life. Overdose can cause death by depressing respiration.

Ira Glass's Musical Cousin
By Ray Moore
This American Life is a production of Public Radio International, featuring Ira Glass as host.
Glass premiered the show in 1995, wherein events of general interest are featured, and now reaches an estimated 1.7 million listeners each week.
What is of interest, musically, is that Ira is the cousin of composer Philip Glass, especially noted for his opera, Einstein on the Beach.
