The Note's Must-Reads are a round-up of today's political headlines and stories from ABC News and the top U.S. newspapers. Posted Monday through Friday right here at www.abcnews.com
Compiled by ABC News' Amanda VanAllen, Will Cantine, Jayce Henderson and J.P. Lawrence
ABC News' Muhammad Lila: "Leaked Osama Bin Laden Report Accuses Pakistani Officials of 'Gross Incompetence'" "Gross incompetence" and collective failures by Pakistani political and military leaders allowed al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden to evade capture while living for years in Pakistan, according to a published copy of the official Pakistani government investigation into bin Laden's life and death. The report, referred to as the "Abbotabad Commission," is a scathing critique of how an often inept Pakistani political and intelligence infrastructure allowed the world's most wanted man to live in Pakistan for nine years — six of them in a compound in Abbottabad, less than a mile from a Pakistani military academy. LINK
The New York Daily News' Celeste Katz: "Scott Stringer Surprised by Spitzer's Last Minute Controller Run" Scott Stringer was surprised by Eliot Spitzer's decision to run for city controller — and had no contingency plan for the last-minute challenge, aides said Monday. Team Stringer heard for weeks of a possible opponent for the Democratic nomination, but the rumors could not be confirmed, aides said. LINK
Politico's MJ Lee: "Wall Street Braces For Comptroller Eliot Spitzer" When Eliot Spitzer resigned as New York governor amid a humiliating prostitution scandal, no one cheered louder than Wall Street. More than five years later, the industry's outspoken antagonist is attempting to make a political comeback – one that could cause serious headaches for bankers and across corporate boardrooms. Spitzer, 54, is vying to be the next New York City comptroller. The job carries far less public prominence than governor or attorney general, the post from which Spitzer earned the nickname "Sheriff of Wall Street" for his battles with American International Group and the New York Stock Exchange, among others. LINK
Bloomberg's Michael Tackett and Emily Freeman: "Spitzer Belies No Second Acts In Comebacks From Infamy" Eliot Spitzer is hardly the first U.S. politician who didn't let infamy get in the way of a comeback. With his announcement yesterday that he'll run in the Democratic primary for New York City comptroller five years after a prostitution scandal drove him from the governor's office, Spitzer joins a long list of Democratic and Republican officials who have turned F. Scott Fitzgerald's maxim that "there are no second acts in American lives" on its head. LINK
The New York Times' Mark Mazzetti and Matthew Rosenberg: "U.S. Considers Faster Pullout In Afghanistan" Increasingly frustrated by his dealings with President Hamid Karzai, President Obama is giving serious consideration to speeding up the withdrawal of United States forces from Afghanistan and to a "zero option" that would leave no American troops there after next year, according to American and European officials. LINK
The Washington Times' Guy Taylor: "'Coup' In Egypt Would Put U.S. In A Delicate Dilemma Over Aid" The White House was careful Monday to avoid calling Egypt's regime change a "coup," underscoring the dilemma President Obama faces as he tries to manage a thorny conflict between the Egyptian military's actions and U.S. law, which bans aid to countries where a coup has taken place. "This is an incredibly complex and difficult situation," White House press secretary Jay Carney told reporters in response to questions about how the Obama administration viewed the Egyptian military's ouster last week of Mohammed Morsi, the nation's first democratically elected president. LINK
USA Today's Michael Winter: "Report: Iran, Sudan Using U.S.-Made Monitoring Tools" Apparently skirting U.S. sanctions, Iran and Sudan are using Silicon Valley-made Internet-monitoring devices on government and commercial networks, the Washington Post reported Monday. It's not known exactly how the tools, from Blue Coat Systems in Sunnyvale, Calif., are being used. Citing computer experts, the Post writes that the products "could empower repressive governments to spy on opponents." LINK
The Hill's Pete Kasperowicz: "GOPer: 'We Can't Trust The President' On Immigration Laws" Rep. John Fleming (R-La.) said Monday night that Republicans who oppose the Senate's immigration bill don't trust President Obama to enforce the border enforcement provisions in that bill. LINK
The Washington Post's Dan Balz: "Rick Perry's Exit Marks The End Of An Era – And A New Frontier For Texas Politics" Texas politics opened a new chapter Monday when Gov. Rick Perry (R), the longest-serving chief executive in state history, announced that he would not seek a fourth full term in 2014 amid widespread speculation that he might make another run for president in 2016. For the past two decades, Perry and former president George W. Bush, who preceded him in the governor's mansion, have dominated politics here. Bush cemented Republicans in power after a century of Democratic rule. Perry pushed the party and the state even further to the right during his decade-long tenure. LINK
The Wall Street Journal's Jared A. Favole and Damian Paletta: "White House Sees Smaller Budget Deficit in 2013" The White House on Monday lowered its projection for economic growth this year while issuing rosier estimates on unemployment and the federal budget deficit. In its annual "mid-session review" budget update, the White House said it expects the economy to grow 2.4% this year, lower than the 2.6% it projected in April. The White House blamed the slower projection in part on the across-the-board federal spending cuts that began in March, as well as slower growth in China and Europe. LINK

ChordsChords v2Ukulele
The other tab for this was awful, so I made my own. It sounds best to me to use a Bar chord for C (C:335553) and Bb(Bb:113331)but an open C chord works almost as well. When strumming this song it's best to let it ring for the words and then do a rhythmic DOWN -- DOWN -- DOWN --- DOWN UP DOWN, slightly lifting your fingers from the fret board between strums. Seeing as they're bar chords, you don't really need a capo to change the pitch, and I'm not exactly sure what key it's in. But this one works well for most vocal ranges. C - B - C C [C] B C I know a girl who's tough but sweet [C] [C] B C She's so fine, she can't be beat [C] [C] B C Got everything that I desire [C] [C] B C Sets the summer sun on fire And continue that for the whole song. Chorus: I want Candy I want Candy Verse 2: Ought to see her with her hair hung down Ain't no finer girl in town Candy's just what the doctor ordered She´s so sweet, she makes my mouth water Chorus: I want Candy I want Candy Ohhh, I want Candy, Ohhh C Hey I want Candy, Candy, I want Candy C Her hair hang down Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey Verse 3: Candy on the beach, there's nothing better But I like Candy when it's wrapped in a sweater Some day soon I'll make you mine, Then I'll have Candy all the time Chorus: I want Candy I want Candy I want Candy I want Candy C Yehh Ohh Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey I want Candy Ohh, yeehh Ohh, yeehh Want Candy I want Candy Comments

The seasonings and vinegar overpowered the tastes of the other ingredients. Ended up trying to make it edible by blotting it on paper towels. Not good!
This has been my preferred cole slaw recipe for years; I like the juicy tomatoes w/ the cruchy cabbage. You can adjust the spices to taste, but do not use purple cabbage for part of the green or else the whole thing will turn an odd pink color.

It's faster, it's mobile friendly—and we'd love you to have a sneak peek. Click here to preview
In this excerpt from the 2014 edition of Daily Guideposts, a woman realizes that everyone deserves a warm greeting from a stranger.
I was arranging a meeting to talk about my nonprofit organization with a woman I'd never met. I sent her a link that had a thumbnail picture of me smiling big.
At the bottom of the e-mail, I added, "I'll smile, so you'll recognize me!"
The day of our meeting, I arrived at the café we had agreed on 15 minutes early. I chose a table and sat down in a seat facing the door. Each time it swung open, I tried to gauge the likelihood that the person coming in was the woman I was going to be talking to.
Filled with 365 true stories, Bible verses, personal prayers selected by 50 engaging writers, you'll find your daily dose of inspiration - in just five minutes a day.
This person seemed too old. This one was dressed like she'd just come from the gym.
After a while the second-guessing became exhausting, so I gave up and smiled at every stranger who glanced in my direction. They, in turn, smiled back at me. The more I smiled in those 15 minutes, the more I became aware once again that we're all God's beloved children, deserving of a smile from a stranger.
At long last someone paused and asked, "Are you Karen?" I nodded in relief.
My 15-minute experiment in smiling showed me that it takes more energy to mentally separate people into categories of potential friend versus stranger than it does to briefly acknowledge everyone—all deserving—with a welcoming smile.
Dear heavenly Father, may my deliberate act of smiling renew my awareness that we're all beloved children of yours. Amen.

Any of 14 species of insectivores in the family Erinaceidae. They eat primarily insects and other arthropods but will also eat plant material. The nine species of spiny hedgehogs have short, barbless spines on the back, a round body, small head, pointed face, and little or no tail. Species range from 4 to 17 in. (10 to 44 cm) long. Spiny hedgehogs are native to Great Britain, northern Africa, and Asia; one species was introduced into New Zealand. The five species of gymnure, or hairy hedgehog, are Asian. They have coarse guard hairs but no spines and are extremely malodorous. The common gymnure may be 18 in. (46 cm) long and have a 12-in. (30-cm) tail. See also porcupine.

Current or former client? Write a review
Posted by: Marty, a Employment client about 4 years ago.
I recommend Beth Cole
I hired Beth more than 3 years ago.
Beth handled my Employment / Labor matter.
I have previously worked with more than 10 lawyers.
With some 1,200 attorneys on my Blackberry, it's not by chance I chose Beth to not only review and fully update our firm manuel, employment/independent contractor agreements but have felt very comfortable so recomending her similarly to clients and colleagues. Bright, great communication skills, compassionate, with a billing structure comensurate with her technical prowess and "returns calls promptly". All the right aingredients for a great counselor.

I'm just getting into minis. I have ordered a few, but I was just in the supermarket and saw some nice ones. Are these registered roses or no-names? I would like to show minis and use them in arrangements. Is there a way to tell what rose they are? |
Follow-Up Postings:
They are usually unregistered, many are from Poulsen Roses (Google "Poulsen Roser"). Can't be shown without the exhibition name, unfortunately. Many make good bedding plants, though. |

I just wanted to share this article with youI enjoy her posts http://www.plantersplace.com/community/blog/everything-roses/throw-away-roses |
Maybe I will buy some to 'experiment' on. |
There are some nice colors, one striped, and one nice russet (if you can find it). I hate when they are called "throw away", I know that's kinda what the industry wants, but still... |
- Posted by seeingreen (My Page) on Fri, Jun 6, 14 at 12:29
It is part of they reason they are not labeled. Most people who purchases them don't care about the variety they buy and only keep them for a little while because the plants quickly begin to die if not transplanted and cared for outside. I have a number of these minis myself and they really do thrive if they are treated like a rose and not a house plant. The reason the article is labeled throw away roses, is sadly how most customers view them Marci confronts this idea. |
This post was edited by seeingreen on Fri, Jun 6, 14 at 12:35
Most of them do have names on the Poulsen or Kordana web sites but sometimes it's really hard to match them up to them unless they have some unusual characteristic. The other problem is that occasionally they will substitute one rose for another of the same general color. Or re-use the same name for two different roses. It can be maddening to try and ID them. They are, however, regular mini roses and can be enjoyed for many years in the garden. What they are NOT is HOUSE PLANTS! Which is where people try to keep them and is why they die. I have a few that have been growing and blooming happily in my garden for years. Isolde Hit |

The tag on the supermarket minis i bought said ideal temp 22°C...implied they wouldn't overwinter...is this true? |
balthazaru, I've grown and overwintered "supermarket" minis successfully. I've one from 10 years ago, which is still alive and kicking. But the new Poulsen/ Kordana gang, have an average age of two years in my garden. Now, if I took the time and separated the rooted cuttings in the pot, and didn't plant them in my raised bed, the might survive even longer. |
If you're concerned about them wintering mulch them well for winter and they should do fine. |

I've got 5 of these in my garden and I've given away a few that were well established (2 yrs). Once you get them out of their original pots and move them into 1 gal pots, the roots will start to get established. Given a chance, these mini's get to be a good size plant. All 5 of mine are in 5 gal. pots and fill them out very nicely. My champion is Kiss Kordana. Beautiful deep red on a good size bush that is constantly in bloom. It's 5 yrs old now. I just picked up another one (deep pink) after mothers day for $4.00. Growing like a weed. I need to see if I can ID this one. Also a Kords rose. |

Over 35 swappers gathered for the upteenth SAPS. Much appreciation to 'Plantmaven' Kathy and 'Castrogardener' Patty for starting this swap years ago. It was a bit of a chilly morning in the high 50's but I didn't hear one complaint. NOT ONE!. Everyone was too happy trading plants and catching up on the latest news to be bothered. Here are photos of many of the participants. I hope there's a photo of everyone who was there. I'll put names if I can read the name tags. So sorry if I didn't get your name. Gwyneth making off with her loot from Patty ... Passing around plants is what it's all about ... That's "Irishman" Fritz (that's what he told me anyway :-) with Terry on the right Linda8 and Tonya sharing a warm hug ... 'Phoenix' Joey took the day off from SABG to join us ... Lee looks like he may have found a warm spot ... Can you find Pat in her signature 'Frog Lady' shirt? Oh, and that's Joey's Mom standing next to him. Glad she could come again ... 'Bluegirl' Karen not looking so blue -- not moodwise anyway. 'Honeybunny' Barbra on the right ... Lan with her beautiful Dalmation.. The dog's name means 'Princess' in Chinese ... We surely had a great time swapping and yapping! I dearly love the plants passed along to me. Thank you! And I'm looking foreward to the fall swap. Unless something comes up we're setting the date for Sat. Oct. 18. Mark your calendars. I hope to have an open garden after the fall swap unless someone else would like to open their garden ... :-) Many, many thanks to 'Honeybunny' Barbra for hosting the swap and getting there early (VERY EARLY -- in the dark!) to secure the free pavilion. Many of you who've attended before were sorely missed ... :-( Looking forward to seeing y'all next time. Happy planting! |

Correction....It was Barbra "Honeybunny" Fox and I that started the swap. After we decided to do one Patty jumped in with her expert advice on how and what to do. Patty and Barbra, remember that I threatened to throw my left over plants in the trash and no one believed me until I did. I was only 5 months post reconstructive spin surgery, so it was Oct. 2006. I have to make the next one as that is my birthday. But I did get my new roman shades and curtain rods installed. Maeve had never seen that widow open and was so excited to be that close to the squirrel in the crepe myrtle. Of course my son was egging her on. |
Thanks for the correction. Wow -- you three have been at this swap business a long time and you're not done yet. Yes. you HAVE to come in the fall if that's your birthday. That's a darling picture of Maeve! |
Thank you everyone for securing the site, establishing the swap & for your generous sharing. I scored the neatest plants & had so much fun visiting with everyone. Particular thanks to Patty for hauling down a PICKUP BED SIZED "Flores Street Houseater" rose, plus many other wonderful roses & plants. And Roselee, besides the neat Manfreda/agave cross, thank you for the wonderful Peter Beales "Classic Roses" book--what a thrill!--been pouring over it since Sat. Seriously, though, please e-mail me your addy--I have LOTS of the Gregg's dalea--I'd love to send you a good bunch so you can get it started & enjoy the blooms. |
Bluegirl Karen, I sent you an email. Nite nite ... |
Looks like it was an AWESOME swap! Sorry I couldn't be there. Thanks for the pictures - Lisa |
Lisa, you were missed! Hope to see you at the fall swap Oct. 18, 2014 ... :-) |
Thanks Roselee- my hands have hardly touched dirt the last three months. I really miss it. I'll mark down the fall date. Hopefully things will have settled down by then. Lisa |

3 lbs light dry extract 3 lbs pale 2-row 1 lbs crystal 20L .5 lbs cara pils .25 lbs munich .125 lbs chocolate malt .125 lbs roasted barley 1.5 oz Willamette at 60 mins 2 tsp irish moss at 15 minutes 1 pkg Wyeast 1084 Irish Ale Yeast Single infusion mash for 60 minutes at 152F. Strike water temp was 164F. Nothing out of the ordinary was done as far brewing process goes. Side by Side comparison: For this comparison I chose Samuel Adams Irish Red.Aroma: The aroma of mine is a bit stronger, occasionally hints at a bit of sourness, but nothing else about the beer suggests it. There is a bit of a chocolaty caramel aroma to it, but it is very faint. No hop aroma.Appearance: Mine is a little darker than the SA and not nearly as clear. I can still see through it when I hold it up to a light but the SA still comes in a bit lighter. The color is a deep reddish amber that makes it look like it tastes.Flavor: Malty, a little sweet up front and the caramel hint in the aroma is definitely more apparent in the flavor. This is a very flavorful beer that comes very close to the flavor of the SA. The bitterness is nice and subtle with almost no hop flavor. The mouthfeel is medium and finishes medium. I'd say with a few tweaks this could become a viable Sam Adams Irish Red clone. Maybe knock off the chocolate malt for a little lighter color and less sweetness. I think that will be the only thing I change the next time I brew this one. If anyone brews this, let me know what you think. -AJ

Just got done brewing 2 gallons of this. Since I reduced the recipe some changes were made including yeast being used (Nottingham dry ale yeast). I can let you know in a couple of weeks how she does.

Rate Dr. Jaishree Sehgal
Dr. Jaishree Sehgal's Ratings
All the negative ratings do not surprise me at all. I'm shocked to see there are positive reviews! Dr. Sehgal is a terrible doctor, the day she retires will be a huge benefit for our region. She's a danger to her patients. Rude, incompetent and yes, racist. I have been in the office and witnessed her charm and perfect happy attitude when dealing with patients of her own race and then will immediately change her tone when dealing with other races. I'm a Caucasian male and never has she cracked a smile with me or treated me with any dignity. I am always polite and make an effort to know her as a person. She's always uptight, rude, arrogant and just plain negligent. I've had several issues go untreated only to end up back in her office much worse than before. Her answer? "Why didn't you see me sooner?" Um...I DID and you blew me off!! Thanks for the permanent nerve damage doc.

I have dealt with Dr Sehgal for years and am in complete disagreement with her recent reviews. She's an amazing physician, polite and thorough. She always fits us in whenever it's needed, she makes sure to follow up if needed and doesn't over treat if it's not necessary. Overall we are extremely happy with her and her secretary Ana!

Run, don't walk, as fast as you can away from this sorry excuse of a doctor. All the negative reviews here I agree with completely. Dr. Sehgal is the worst doctor I have ever met, I would feel saved being treated a vet than her. Her schooling is out of date, her rudeness is outrageous. Patients are better off using a walk in clinic than seeking her so called advice. The number of times I have been misdiagnosed or told that there is nothing wrong, only to return in a truly horrible state, is incredible. What happened to do no harm?! I have witnessed her screaming and embarrassing patients in front of a full waiting room. She has made fun of patients with the door to her office open for all to hear. We are not people to her, we're a source of income, plain and simple. Get in, get out, bill the government, next please! All around horrible, nasty woman.

I saw Dr. Sehgal today for the third time in nearly three weeks. Every appointment took multiple attempts. The office is frequently closed. At each visit she blew me off. My symptoms of coughing, wheezing, body pain, fatigue, sore throat, headaches, fevers, nausea and vomiting were ignored and I was told it just needs to "run its course". It's been almost THREE WEEKS!!! Frustrated and angry I went to a walk in clinic, regardless of her "policy" of no walk in clinics allowed. There I was seen immediately and diagnosed with nearly pneumonia!! The doctor wrote me prescriptions and told me if I let this go a few more days I would be hospitalized. Thanks a lot Dr. Sehgal, your lack of medical care or knowledge nearly put me in the ICU. I will not be returning to your office! The clinic is more reliable and they treated me like a human being rather than a waste of time. You are FIRED!

In one word: TERRIBLE. I hope she retires, the sooner, the better. She's not helpful in any way. Loves to argue and make you feel like a complete fool and waste of time. I have been denied help on numerous occasions which only lead to further health complications. I am actively seeking a new doctor and considering reporting her negligence to the College. The only good thing about her office is receptionist Anna. She's always happy and kind. Too bad she isn't the doctor!

Excellent doctor. Approachable, always listens and she goes out her way to make sure you are taken care of. She is very thorough and always follows up with me. Ana is also great, always so pleasant and goes above and beyond to help.

I agree with all the negative reviews. I've been a patient for a few years and have watched Dr. Sehgal grow into a bitter rude woman. She has no patience for anything. If your issue is not of a simple nature forget getting treatment. You'll be sent home with no answers and left to your own devices while your health declines. Forget getting a referral, even if you beg. I have never been allowed a same day appointment, often I have had to wait weeks to see her, even when very ill. Bronchitis that could have been treated quickly turned into severe pneumonia because she would not allow me an appointment for two weeks. I was also told not to use a walk in clinic or I would be fired. Absolutely terrible doctor!!
Was this rating useful? 2 [[ userState['ratings'][2526836].votes_count ]]
Not sure what's up with the negative reviews of late. I have been a patient of Dr. Sehgal's for over 5 years and have never had a bad experience. She is always very accommodating, attentive, polite and takes the time to talk to us about our issue. When we take our little one in for shots, she examines and observes him to make sure he's doing fine and asks about his milestones, etc. Anna does a great job of juggling multiple things at once and still remembering small details.
Yes, every once in a while we wait a few minutes longer than usual or it's hard getting through on the phone but that happens elsewhere too ...

I have been a patient of Dr. Sehgal for many years and I agree with the recent posts. Over the years I have witnessed her decline into an argumentative, rude and obnoxious woman. Her concern for the well being of her patients has gone down hill. I am feeling more and more like a waste of time and actually avoid making an appointment if I can because her examinations go nowhere. My most recent visit she didn't even make any notes on my file and barely listened to what I had to say. I left with no help and she made me feel like I was an inconvenience. Even the pharmacy staff in her building don't want to deal with her anymore! I too have been threatened to be dropped as a patient for using a walk in clinic over a holiday weekend. She only cares about the money at this point. I hope she will retire soon. Her medical knowledge is seriously limited and she's rarely in the office these days. I'm actively seeking a new doctor.
Was this rating useful? 2 [[ userState['ratings'][2505029].votes_count ]]
Hands down the WORST doctor the KW region has ever seen. She's disgustingly rude, arrogant and argumentative. Don't bother asking questions, she's egotistical and no matter what you say or suggest, you're always wrong. I could have saved myself a lot of pain and suffering by avoiding this doctor as her "professional opinion" left me with permanent damage. It is impossible to get an appointment with her, she's often on vacation. There are no nurses on staff, just a receptionist. The office and exam rooms are awfully claustrophobic and cluttered. Threatening notices adorn the office walls. Visiting doctor Sehgal is a sure fire way to have an anxiety attack. She doesn't care about her patients, she cares about the money. Forget getting a referral to a specialist, it's money lost to her so you will always be refused. My illnesses wouldn't have gotten so out of hand and difficult to manage if she would have admitted that she has no clue what she's doing and allowed a referral. This doctor needs to retire, she's a danger to her patients and severely incompetent.

In New Zealand, a System To Watch for Disabled Parking Violators
Re:Bear the burden before passing judement (551 comments)
What you may not be considering is that a parking lot full of slow moving people is an extreme hazard all the way around. Cars backing out often cannot see wheelchairs. Plus, slow moving people with walkers or canes trying to navigate around fast cars and impatient drives is not safe either. Thus, again, while the system is not perfect, it is necessary.

Since your newspaper covered the start of the 2014 Horsham Challenger Little League season at the township recognition ceremony, I had to write to you about how impressed I was at the community's tremendous support for our disabled players.
As you have previously reported, Kevin Barron, a rising high school senior, organized the Home Run Classic Tournament to benefit our program. (http://www.leaguelineup.com/welcome.asp?url=horshamhomerunclassic&sid=936005423). The large crowd I saw at the Aug. 16 games came from across the community — young and old, Challenger players and their typical siblings, friends and relatives. All volunteered to make the tournament possible, whether by working at the snack stand, umpiring, selling raffle tickets or preparing the fields.

Norris jailed once again
A former Holliday softball coach and assistant football coach has been arrested on nine charges related to sexual contact with a student or students.
The charges come from sealed indictments handed down by a Wichita County grand jury last week.
David Austin Norris, 30, was booked into the Wichita County Jail just before 5 p.m. Saturday.
The charges against him include: two counts of sexual assault, one count of indecency with a child/sexual contact, and six counts of improper rela
tionship between an educator and student.
Information available Saturday did not indicate whether one or more students were involved in the allegations.
As of late Saturday, no bond amounts had been posted.
On June 19, Norris was charged with six criminal counts alleging he had sex with a student.
At that time Norris was booked into the Archer County Jail in lieu of $250,000 bond on each count for a total $1.5 million. He posted bond and was freed.
In the June incident, Norris faced three counts of improper relationship between an educator and a student, two counts of indecency with a child, and sexual assault — all second-degree felonies.
It was not clear Saturday whether the nine counts posted this week included some of the prior allegations or were based on new accusations.
In June, Sgt. Simon Dwyer, of the Archer County Sheriff's Department, said the accuser on the original charges was a 17-year-old girl who was 16 when some of the offenses allegedly were committed. The crimes are said to have happened for more than a year.
Arrest affidavits then indicated the victim made an outcry to a church camp chaperone June 9 that she had been involved in an inappropriate sexual relationship with her high school coach.
According to the June affidavits, the relationship began with texting via cellphone, kissing and other intimate acts at Holliday High School when the victim was 16. The victim claimed the relationship continued through her junior year and until early May 2012. The two met at several locations, including the Holliday High School gym, in the coaches offices, on a rural road, and at Norris' residence in Wichita Falls.
Wichita Falls police executed a search warrant two days after his original arrest at Norris' home on Trinidad Street and seized his cellphone to verify text messages.

Does anyone else enjoy more mature(senein) anime to these series. This stuff seems more like little kid stuff. It makes since because both of these series are shonen.
For example I enjoy series like Berserk and Hellsing which are made for late teenagers and 20 year olds.
*note please don't close this. I didn't make this to hate on naruto or bleach. I made it to discuss senein.*

ilmbg, In my area, the Washington DC and surrounding suburbs in VA and MD, there is a consumer magazine and associated website that rates Heating and A/C contractors. Like anything else, you still must do your due diligence and investigate. The Better Business Bureau and in my case, my County provides an on-line source to determine complaints made and resolution for all businesses within the County. YMMV |

"I placed an order for Christmas gift online. After placing the order, I contacted online customer service to verify if the item would be delivered before Christmas. The customer service representative told me the item was in stock at their Atlanta fulfilment center, and that I should receive by the 24th. I check my order status today which still shows my order as being processed. I called online customer service again. The person I spoke with tried to feed me a bunch of BS, and I caught her in a lie twice. I'll never purchase from Costco.com again and if I don't receive my order by the 24th the order will be cancelled; however, I will continue shopping in their warehouses directly. "
"I ordered a computer online for my wife for Christmas. It never arrived. I have called them nearly every day for 7 days and each time they have promised that a new one would be shipped. Now it is too late to get my money back in time to get her a present. Thanks Costco"
"On 10/17/14 I notice group of man to perform a ritual muslin prayers in the corner of the water department on the floor of COSTCO Rego Park location in New York city. Since when grocery shopping become a place for religion rituals? What about other religions or people, who is not affiliated with religion? When I point out to the manager of this store, he only laughed remarks at my back.
On the other issue,I bought a bag of salad:48757 Organic Spring Mix by Earthbound farm it was completely spoiled with adore, only preoccupy by more important things,stop me from returning this item back to the store.
From now on, I will be avoid to shop in this location.
"I sent this once before but got no confirmation: Friday at 12:30 pm we left our truck at the Independance, Mo tire dept to have the $947.87 tires installed. When I left the truck I was surprised at the lack of customer service. No good afternoon sir no small talk. At 2:00 pm I was called back to get more money to install valve stems, they made sure I paid upfront; no trust there. I came back at 3:00pm and the truck had no tires on it. then cashier finally told me that they had stripped all of the lug nuts on 3 wheels. This was not good on my $50K Dodge Ram 2500 and our only means of transportation while visiting the KC area. The tire manager came out them and told me it was my responsibility and they had no liability for any vehicle left for them to work on. He said I should have it towed. I thought how can it be towed with no wheels. so I asked to see the store manager. He showed up about 20 min. later. He made no introduction and got very close and told me that I would needed to get the truck towed and out of their shop as they did nothing but tires and were not responsible for any damage to the lug nuts or studs while replacing tires. I said that this was a bad way to treat a member of 10 years. I also told him that I was retires Journeyman Maintenance Man and they could use a threat chaser(die nut) to clean the threads up so the new nut would not be ruined. He then changed and said he would pay for the nuts and offered us free food; we declined the food. At 6:30 after 5 1/2 hours the truck was finished with one nut short on the RF and RR tires. They said that we should get them fixed. They never once called me sir or used any other normal customer service smoothing technique. Never apologized for the wait or anything. Never once acted like we were even people. They were combative throughout.
Saturday I bought a die nut and repaired all 32 wheel studs and torqued all to 135 ft lbs. I had to add air to the nitrogen fill tires as they were not set as I asked 60 front 80 rear for max load. the cashier said they would set them at unloaded specs. It doesn't matter as I will never go to a Costco tire dept again. I would like to stop using Costco but my wife loves Kirkland products. You can use the $15 x 4 for rotate and balance to help repay the money you spent to replace the nuts you ruined. As I will never let anyone at costco touch my truck again."
"Nothing but great experiences with this company
Very liberal return policy and courteous customer service. I can't say enough positive things about them. We have purchased play yard equipment, dehumidifiers, patio furniture and office supplies. You can return at the store or by mail. All items were received free of damage and they have never refused to accept a return, Wish all companies were like them"
"I ordered furniture from costco.com on 5/3/2014 (about 3 months ago). But so far I have got frustrated with the order, I do not know what's going on with the shipping. The shipping point to "http://www.lodeso.com", the last update is
"First Attempt to Contact Customer 06/13/2014" I have never been contacted by the shipping company. I called COSTCO customer service many times, asking about where my order is. Each time somebody from COSTCO called back telling me that they will contact with the carrier and ask carrier to contact us, but the carrier never contacted us. COSTCO is kicking the ball to the carrier, I feel that COSTCO should be fully responsible for
the product they sell on their website. It is really a worst online shopping experience from COSTCO.com
"I have ordered 3 flash drives, each in different dates online from COSTCO. I got confirmation mail and UPS shipping number, but non of the orders were delivered even after one month. When i call Costco customer case, they were saying UPS deliver the item to local postal service and they will deliver the item, and the problem could be with my post box. But, i told them that i am getting mails even promotion mails from Costco. Finally, Costco executive said they are not responsible for the items shipping, but they take only order and they will not have track of those items. After one month, when i called them, they said they will refund the amount. Poor customer support and no tracking. From my experience, i strongly recommend not to go with Costco Online purchase."
"Beware of President Feta cheating customers on the weight of the products. I bought 5 slabs of Feta and noticed 1 of it cost more than the rest, it was 5 lbs stated on the label with the price of $21.79. When I weigh it, it was only 2.38 lbs. I paid almost $11.00 more! Also, I noticed every slab of Feta does not weigh more than 3 lbs. I had to return it the next day. Customer service told me they cannot weigh to prove it. Be careful to check if the items claimed its weight.
"I ordered a laptop for my friend and it got cancelled saying the address is inaccurate. I contacted them and executive asked me to order again and send the order # to process the order. I tried two times, send the details to executive, but the order is cancelled automatically all the time. I got the same from Amazon and they delivered to the same address. Costco keep sending auto generated email saying inaccurate address, instead of addressing the issue separately. Please do not purchase online, or you can buy from store and ship through UPS"
"I purchased a sewing machine from the Mettawa, Illinois store in November 2013. When I made the purchase the sale price was no longer valid, but that if it went on sale within a year they would price match. The same model was on sale in their online only flyer for April, 2014. I called the store and explained when I purchased the machine and asked if they could price match with the online. I was told yes they could. I went to the store the following day, only to be told they don't price match. I even showed them the call from my phone and the exact time of the call, but basically I got a screw you attitude. I drove home (20miles) got the machine and returned it to the store. This time I spoke to the real manager, and he was useless. I did mention that if two different people told me something that was inaccurate perhaps he needed a new training program. I called the corporate customer service and all they did was say they were sorry and someone would call me in a few days. I'm not happy. I stopped going to Sam's Club because of poor customer service. Guess I will go back to Sam's and get abused closer to home."
"In the past, I have had excellent customer service with Costco Photos. The price is reasonable and the end product has been what I wanted. However,after my recent experience with Greetings by Costco, I will no longer use the photo department. This year I ordered 150 Christmas cards online. I knew it would take 5-7 days to receive them. They did arrive at the local warehouse in 7 days. The problem was I only received 50 cards (1/3 of my order.) The local warehouse checked into it and the corporate office for the photo department admitted they did not complete my entire order. I was told they would correct the situation and overnight them to my local warehouse. That meant the cards were to arrive by the 19th of December. I was told I would receive a phone call when they arrived. On the 20th of December, I went to the local warehouse to check on the order since I had not heard from them. I needed to get my cards in the mail. The cards were not there. The person running the photo center was unable to locate them. He called the corporate office and was put on hold. After 24 minutes, his call was answer. He was told they had not sent them yet, but they would process them and the local warehouse would receive them by Dec. 23rd or 24th. I understand that mistakes happen, but I thought they were correcting there mistake by sending them overnight. That didn't happen. So now the company made two mistakes. First, they didn't print enough. Second, they were not honest about sending them overnight. I received the phone number to call corporate. I was put on hold for over 30 minutes. After explaining to the person answering the phone that I wanted to cancel my order and to receive a refund, I was told I would have to drive back to the local warehouse to receive a refund. I asked to speak to the supervisor. Again, I was on hold for over 30 minutes. The supervisor told me the same thing. She also passed the buck and said it was a processing center that made the mistake, not Costco. I went back to the warehouse and designed new cards that could be finished today. The person working in the photo center was very apologetic and printed them within one hour. I was able to get a refund at the customer service desk for the original order. I left and went home. That's when I realized I didn't get envelopes for the new order. I had to go back to get the envelopes. So after four trips to Costco, several hours of my time and lots of gasoline. I was able to get Christmas cards. Just not the ones I wanted. In the future, I will be printing my photos somewhere else where they will not pass the buck to their mistakes. "
"Just a note, when you pay for 2 day shipping it is not two day shipping (scam) two day shipping is four to five day shipping with 3-5 day processing! And these of course are working days so do the math. There is no Two Day Shipping, Don't care how they word it. I paid more for shipping than the product. Very unhappy with this two day shipping scam!!!!"
"don't buy your winter tires at Costco - unless you don't mind waiting in long lineups for hours for service only to find out the tires you ordered a month ago still have not come in and costco has no way to track them in their system -worst service anywhere!"
"I am so extremely disappointed with my Costco.com experience. I have had better shopping experiences with shady electronics stores in Brooklyn, NY.
I purchased a King-sized mattress topper that was advertised on Costco.com as "4-lb memory foam" on August 22, 2013. I received the topper on August 28. The entire package weighed only 41 lbs, which is 18 lbs. short of what 4-pound memory foam should weigh in a King size. I called Costco.com to return the product. I was told the shipper would contact me in a couple of days to arrange pickup. A week later when the shipper hadn't yet contacted me I called Costco.com again. This time I was told it might take up to two weeks for the shipper to contact me and that I should just wait. At the end of two weeks I still hadn't heard anything and I called Costco.com again. This time the shipper contacted me right away and arranged to pick up the mattress topper on September 17. I waited two weeks after the mattress topper was returned and checked my credit card - there was no credit. I called Costco.com and they told me that they were going to call the returns department and ask them to issue a credit within 2-3 days. I waited another week and there was still no credit to my credit card, so I called again. Again, I was told that they would contact the returns department and issue me a credit in 2-3 days. Here I am two months after my order and I still don't have the refund.
At this point I am growing sick and tired of having to call Costco.com every week to push them to do their job, and still they don't do it. There is no way on Earth I am going to purchase anything from Costco.com again. This experience has been completely exasperating. I suggest that somebody from Costco.com arrange some lessons with representatives from Amazon.com or Overstock.com on how to process customer returns in a timely and satisfactory manner.
Costco.com is a completely different animal than your local Costco store. The stores have exemplary customer service, but costco.com is run by apathetic people who are slower than government employees."
"HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH COSTCO.COM (Not with local Costco Store).
I ordered a $1,100.00 Cappuccino Machine as a gift on Monday 16/09 and I paid extra for 2 days delivery.
On Thursday 19/09 I received a notification with the tracking number and delivery date for Monday 23/09, really? A 2 Day delivery take 7 days???
Called them, and I was told that they don't know why it toke so long to be shipped out.
It was suppose to be a gift!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PS: by the way, I wrote 1 review exactly like this one at Costco.com, and it never was displayed. After 48 hours I wrote same review and nothing. After 3 identical reviews none were ever approved by Costco, and that's pathetic, they only approve reviews that don't affect Costco reputation....WATCH OUT!!!
I have been using my local Costco store since 2007 and zero problems, but stay away from their online store, they're disorganized, irresponsible and nobody knows what is going on."

Karen's anorexia started in 1974 not 1975
Again, while she starts to look ill in 1975, the thoughts and the obsessions started in 1974. You just don't get that skinny overnight. 1974 was their peak. The Carpenters were everywhere. They had number one hits. So clearly, it wasn't the declining popularity (which eventually happened) that caused Karen to slip. She was also still very young, so I don't think the lack of a romance was a problem also.
I think it originally started with a simple desire to look thinner. She was a performer, removed from 'hiding' behind her beloved drums. In retrospect, we look at those videos from 1974 like the Budokon Japan concert or the one in Holland and can revel in how healthy she looked. But she wouldn't have been considered 'thin' by society's standards, maybe average, certainly not fat.
I think she particularly was frustrated with her hips. As Richard has said, she had her bone structure going against her. She just had bone structure that made her hips wider than say someone like Olivia Newton-John. Even at her thinnest, her body below her waist could be deceiving when she was wearing pants. If you saw her face it was a give away. Mostly Karen wore pants and jackets in her later years. You primary saw the anorexia effects in her face.
So my theory is that she originally got obsessed over something she had absolutely no control over, her hips. She then did take the diet too far. The 'dieting' soon became a learned behavior. She discovered this high that she got from feeling her bones and being thin. So when life got difficult, or she was not happy with something (Richard's girlfriends, declining sales, feeling like she was betraying Richard with the solo album, her mother's lack of attention, the marriage, etc.), she turned back to her addiction, anorexia. That was how she learned to deal with life. She didn't resort to alcohol, or other substances, she fell back on this 'good girl's' addiction. But just like all other addictions, the reason to turn to it are all the same.

Some people on the web seem to get quite defensive if someone states they feel the illness affected Karen's voice. Although she always had a beautiful voice, personally I do think it affected the quality of her voice. From a purely anatomical standpoint, it would be almost impossible for it not to affect her voice. Any thoughts?
ReplyDeleteReplies- AnonymousSeptember 26, 2013 at 5:23 PM
of course it did, she died of emetine poisoning (aka ipecac syrup - makes you throw up - supposed to be used when you need it like if you ingest poison/chemicals/etc) anyways, she was taking it to get rid of food (obviously) and throwing up that much it definitely affected her voice. I'm a singer (with an eating disorder) and i know that if i throw up, my voice pays for it. I can listen to her from start to end and see a difference. And you're right, she always sounded flawless, when she was the worst, her voice was still amazing, and better than most, but for her it wasn't her best, but it isn't that noticeable.

I'm so glad you mentioned this. I'm usually skewered by die-hard fans when I bring it up. You can clearly hear a dramatic change in her voice by 1977/1978 and it becomes weaker and breathier by the early 80s. I would definitely say that what she did to her body affected her singing.

Weary heads bodies can bask atop a queen-size Simmons Beautyrest Kentish pillow-top set with coil springs for extra support ($749). Allergen- and dust-mite resistant Tempur-Pedic ClassicBed sets ($2,599/california king) mold to the body's exact shape and absorb disturbances produced by bedfellows' dreams of break-dancing fame. Commune with Orange County Mattress's knowledgeable sleep consultants to find the perfect slumber pallet, which, although this Groupon cannot be used toward delivery costs, can be delivered in time for an extra-long bedtime story the same day.
Ease into the day with a 6:45 a.m. Vinsyana yoga class with rising-sun salutations on Mondays or empower your prettiest part with a belly-dance class on Thursdays. Hula-hoop dance and urban hip-hop bring rhythm, grace, and choreography into any weekly routine or routine of salvaging dryer lint to stuff a spare mattress.

A swimmer stands at the edge of the pool, scanning the bottom for her lost goggles. The water is so crystal clear that she spots them immediately and dives to retrieve them. This pool was cleaned by Shane Allen's Pool Service, whose team uses green methods to maintain pool clarity and keep chemicals balanced. The technicians also repair any pool parts, including pumps, motors, and filters to keep water algae-free so pool owners don't have to hire freelance catfish.
Lawn Doctor's roots lead back to the mid-1960s, when friends Bob Magda and Tony Giordano took on the endeavor of reviving uncared-for lawns in their hometown of Matawan, New Jersey. Their local business has since blossomed into a national franchise with more than 500 locations across the United States, each adhering to the mission of enhancing lawns' allure with time-tested techniques, dedicated customer service, and dabs of foundation makeup.Before Lawn Doctor's assiduous staffers unleash expertise on swards, they arrive at the client's home for a complimentary consultation to gauge each lawn's specific needs. Grass gurus can thicken turf with their patented Turf Tamer power seeder and foster healthy growth for grass, trees, and shrubs with fertilizer. Uninvited lawn assailants—such as crickets, ants, and grazing neighbors—shudder at the sight of Lawn Doctor's pest-control experts. The company also helps to preserve Mother Nature's receding hairline with organic lawn treatments and natural, eco-friendly products.
When The Yoga Underground's four passionate instructors aren't shopping for shoes, watching the sun rise while hiking up Mount Timp, or partaking in the great American pastime of wearing crazy socks, they're hitting the mat to teach students how to build physical strength and emotional wellness. Although they consider themselves students of the ancient practice of yoga, they aren't afraid to add some modern twists into the Ashtanga and Vinyasa yoga traditions, such as incorporating core-bolstering moves from Pilates and, according to instructor Brittany, playing "really awesome music." They offer an octet of lighthearted, yet challenging classes, which includes two fast-paced kick-asana classes, a primary series, and a lunchtime yoga session that accommodates working yogis on the go.
