Frequently asked questions about the Rent.com $100 Visa® Reward Card
Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about the Rent.com $100 Visa® Reward Card.
This information is displayed by Rent.com as a courtesy to the card issuer, The Bancorp Bank. The cardholder agreement is between you and The Bancorp Bank. If you have any questions about the card once you receive it, please direct them to The Bancorp Bank at the contact information listed below.
General Reward Card Questions
What is the Reward Card?
The Reward Card is a $100 Visa® debit card. Purchases on the card are deducted from the card's available balance. You can use the Reward Card anywhere that accepts Visa® debit cards. There is no need to apply for this card as you would a credit card.
Why do some properties feature the Reward Card while others don't?
Some properties featured on our site pay us a fee only when their Rent.com advertisement results in a lease. When a renter reports their lease at one of those properties to us, we know to contact that property to collect our advertising fee. So for those properties, we reward renters for telling us about their lease by offering a Reward Card!
How is the Reward Card different from a credit card?
A credit card provides you with a line of credit, which you have to pay back. With the Reward Card, there is no line of credit and no bill to pay. You simply use the Reward Card to make purchases until you reach the $100 limit or your card expires (whichever comes first).
Are there any fees that may reduce the balance of my Reward Card?
Your Reward Card comes in the form of a $100 Visa® debit card. For a complete list of fees, refer to the fee schedule in the Cardholder Agreement. For more information, read Using Your Card.
Why does my Reward Card say "debit" on it?
Regulations require us to print the word "debit" on the front of your Reward Card. However, in order to complete successful transactions, you must select the payment option of "credit" (not "debit") at the point of purchase.
Does my Reward Card ever expire?
Yes. You can find the expiration date on the front of your Reward Card.
Getting the Card
How do I submit my claim for the Reward Card?
Claiming your $100 only takes a few seconds. You can get started by visiting the $100 Reward tab or contact us.
What do I have to do to get the Reward Card?
Start by using Rent.com to find your new home! If you find a property that features the Reward Card, tell the leasing office that you found the property on "Rent.com" when you visit. Be sure to write down "Rent.com" as your referral source on the visitor's information card and/or rental application. After you sign your lease, report your lease on the Rent.com website. Please note that you will only receive a Reward Card after we have received confirmation from the property manager regarding your lease report.
You must submit your lease report form within 120 days after moving to the property. However, if the property has been terminated from Rent.com, you must submit your lease report form within 30 days after the property's termination. You can also submit your lease report form prior to moving in.
For more details, please read the complete Reward Card Policy.
When can I expect to receive the Reward Card?
Confirming your lease and processing the Reward Card usually takes 8-10 weeks from your move-in date or the day you report your lease, whichever is later. There are a couple steps we have to take in order to confirm your lease report. As a part of our Reward Card Policy, you must sign a new lease, move into the rental property, and reside there for more than 30 days. Once you report your lease to us, we contact the property manager (on your move-in date or the day you report your lease to us, whichever is later) to confirm that Rent.com was your referral source. Then 31 days later, we confirm that you have moved in and still reside at your new home.
Once we receive ALL the necessary paperwork from your property manager confirming your lease report, we issue your Reward Card.
How do I change or confirm the mailing address of my Reward Card?
Visit your Account Profile page to change your Reward Card address or you may call us at 1.866.432.RENT (7368).
I got an email saying that my Reward Card has been sent but it has not arrived.
From the time of receiving the email, please allow 7-10 business days to receive the card. If it has been more than 14 business days since the date that you received the email from us, please contact us. Rent.com will reissue a second card if the first is lost in the mail or returned to us.
Activating the Reward Card
What is my activation code?
Following our confirmation of your lease report, we will send the activation code to you via email. You'll need your activation code to activate your Reward Card, inquire about your card balance and previous transactions, request a replacement card, etc. If you've forgotten your activation code, you can have it emailed to you or view it on your Reward Status page.
How do I activate my Reward Card?
Your Reward Card must be activated before use. To activate your Reward Card, please call 1.866.255.9754. When prompted, enter your Reward Card number and your 4-digit activation code. You should have received an email from Rent.com indicating your activation code. If you would like your code resent, please click here to have it emailed to you.
Using the Reward Card
Where can I use my Reward Card?
You can use your Reward Card to purchase goods and services at any merchant that accepts Visa debit cards.
Do I have to spend the $100 all in one place?
No. You can use the Reward Card as many times as you wish until you reach the $100 limit or your card expires (whichever comes first). For instance, if you use the card to make a $25 purchase, your Reward Card will still have an available balance of $75.
Can I use my Reward Card at an ATM?
No, you cannot use this card to withdraw cash from an ATM.
Can I use my Reward Card to buy gas?
Yes. However, you will have to go inside to the register to pay with your Reward Card. Unfortunately, the Reward Card cannot be used to "pay at the pump."
Can I use my Reward Card at a restaurant?
Yes. However, you should be aware that it is common practice for the credit processors at restaurants to temporarily authorize an amount on your card that totals up to 20% more than the bill you receive (in order to reserve an amount that includes an anticipated gratuity) until your final signed receipt can be processed. For example, you may have a restaurant bill for $25. When they swipe your card, $30 will be temporarily authorized until your signed receipt for $28.75 is processed. It can take up to a week for the temporary authorization to be adjusted to reflect your final receipt. Please be sure to account for this practice before using your Reward Card at a restaurant.
Can I use my Reward Card when shopping online?
Yes. When you "check out" at an online merchant, select "Visa" as your credit card type and then provide your Reward Card number and the expiration date. If the merchant asks for your billing address, enter the address where your card was originally sent (however, if you have contacted customer service to change your address, use your updated address). If the merchant asks for a 3-digit security code, you can find it on the back of your card—it is the last three digits printed in the signature panel.
How do I use my Reward Card at "self-swipe" merchant locations?
At certain merchant locations (such as grocery stores), the merchant may require that you swipe your Reward Card yourself. At these locations, make sure you choose "credit" as the payment option. Though your Reward Card says "debit" on it, you must choose the "credit" option for your transaction to be accepted.
Can I reload the Reward Card with money?
No, these cards cannot be reloaded with money.
What if the amount of my purchase is more than my available balance?
In some cases, your transaction will be declined. Some large retailers support split tender at the point of sale, which will deduct the amount left on the card and allow you to use another form of payment to pay for the balance. You can always check your available balance online or by phone. This information is displayed on the back of your Reward Card.
What is the balance of my Reward Card?
There is information on the back of your card to retrieve the balance of your Reward Card at any time. You may also visit Reward Card Balance link to view your balance.
I lost my card. Can I get a replacement?
If you lost your card you may receive a replacement. If you did not activate your card before losing it, please contact us directly. If you activated your card, please contact the number on back of the card to have another card reissued. Please be advised that fees will apply to lost cards that have been activated.
This card is issued by The Bancorp Bank pursuant to a license from Visa U.S.A.

Phoronix: Wine 1.1.24 Released With New Improvements
A new development release of Wine is now available with a few prominent additions. Wine 1.1.24 introduces support for FreeDesktop.org file associations, support for 64-bit exception handling, improved ARB shaders, fixes for the FBO mode, and many ListView improvements...
What games are those? And what graphics drivers are you using?
I haven't noticed much leaking with the games I play. Although I've suspected some leaks playing World of Warcraft, I'm never really sure if it's WoW or Wine. My other games don't seem to leak much but I never find myself checking my system's memory unless playing WoW.
How's ATI support coming along?
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13335 (but you know that, you posted there). That bug is pretty hard to fix properly, but it's certainly a priority.
The ARB shader improvements are mainly useful for platforms with broken GLSL support, like OS X. It's unlikely we'll switch the default from GLSL on Linux.

Juggernaut Overview
Juggernaut is a free-to-play action role-playing game where players become soldiers fighting two wars simultaneously. In the mystical world of Haradan a sinister group known as the Devourers has invaded transforming ordinary creatures into ferocious monsters to do their bidding. The cities inhabitants who were recently freed from the enslavement of a false God are at arms with each other. Divided by their strong opinions of the future of the land they've become enemies fighting for control amidst the chaos. Players must choose a side and help defeat the Devourers while proving their clan deserves to reign. Complete difficult missions, kill hundreds of monsters, and battle others for rank. The game incorporates a unique combination of 3D combat seen in client based games like 4Story with an engrossing dialogue and interface common with text RPGs such as Heroes of Kung Fu. Wage war as a hero in Juggernaut. The three basic classes consist of assassin, defender, and destructor.
Free League – Wishes to build a new world without dictators or aristocrats where people are free to choose their own path.
Steel Cohort – Wants to establish a powerful state with order and discipline. They disagree with the Free League's utopian ideas.

Juggernaut Review
By Ange Perdu
Juggernaut is a 3D fantasy themed browser based MMORPG where players enter the war torn world of Haradan. As heroes in the making they must past a series of tests to prove their worthiness as a Scorpion warrior. Tackle complicated missions and hunt down dangerous monsters or super beings to bring peace back to the village. Fight alongside friends against venomous hissers, cave ogres, and lost souls. Explore dungeons and destroy tough bosses. Forge magical stone fragments and rare crystals into orbs to perform special skills during combat. Participate in intense clan battles for rank or duel other players. Choose your side and fight in this unique online action role-playing game.
Path of a Scorpion, the Gameplay
Juggernaut combines the best elements of text RPGs and popular 3D client based MMO games. Most of the gameplay involves completing quests, monster hunting, and battling others in fast paced PvP combat. Players begin their journey in a remote mountain settlement. Akrilon the instructor delegates a string of missions or quests to test heroes' worthiness to become part of the Brotherhood of the Scorpions. To be initiated in this elite group players operate as a sort of mercenary completing various tasks for the residents of Radway in Haradan. There are plenty of quests. Each mission description features relatively long dialogue following the detailed storyline similar to Heroes of Kung Fu. Players have to choose their responses from various NPC before accepting their objective. Quests vary from reading ancient tablets and solving mysteries to killing troublesome beasts. The game tries to spice up the tasks with a bit of creativity like commencing a séance to help put Veronica the ghost's spirit to rest but the majority of the quests still require monster slaying. Fighting off Ravagers, giant beetle Tuskers, Marsh Fireballs, and serpent Hissers in each town can make the gameplay feel repetitive at times.
Monsters & Duels
As players explore different territories on the animated map they can click on roaming creatures to attack. When the fight starts an animated window will appear in the middle of the screen. Similar to 4 Story or other popular client based games players face off against their opponent in 3D. All battles are turn-based. Heroes can choose to strike right, left, or execute a direct hit. Slots on the sidebar allow players to apply magical stones or orbs for cool special moves. Devour your enemies in flames or strike them down with lightening for a quick victory. The high quality fight sequences almost make you forget you're playing a browser game. At the end of the match fight statistics are displayed. Players earn gold, XP, or random dropped items after defeating foes. Depending on monster sometimes stone fragments are rewarded. Collecting three of the same type will form a mystical stone allowing a Scorpion warrior to perform fatal blows. When players join a battle already in progress they can't see the other player's character. Their hero simply stands patiently waiting until their turn to strike the monster. In Juggernaut there are also PvP duels. At any time another player can request a duel. Users have the option of accepting or declining the offer. Duels operate the same as a monster attack only instead of a Demon Boar it's another human character.
Heroism in the Battlefield
As players level up they can enter the Battlefield in Adrian Mines. Fighting in the battlefield enhances skills and boosts rank. Players can work their way up from a commoner to a knight. Players are divided by their faction into teams with three warriors each. Any user level 8 and up can participate. Although factions aren't chosen until level 15 users without an affiliation can select temporary side to fight for. The first team to reach 250 points wins. 20 points are rewarded for every enemy killed. Defeating special players with the role of miner on the battlefield can receive up to 40 points. Heroism points are also given to heroes that kill players of equal or higher levels. Accumulating heroism points improve rank and unlock special items in NPC shops.
Shopping for Orbs of Destruction
In NPC shops scattered across villages in Haradan players can buy weapons, armor, ammunition, food, potions, and magical crystals. There's not much of a selection in many of the shops. Players will only find a dozen or so items available depending on their current level. Purchase helmets, clubs, swords, belts, cuirass, cauldrons, right bracers, elixirs, orbs, pies, and bread. To acquire most items heroes must earn them from slaying beasts and foes in battle or through the trade auction feature. When a player reaches level 6 they can trade with other players in the auction section. Rare items like the Orb of Destruction, Vampire Orb, Essence of Acid, Soul Transformers, Sharpening Crystal, Ancient Hero's Helmet, Recruit's Gauntlet, Sphere of Rage, and magical Volcanic Crystal can be traded for a fee of in-game gold. The character customization is quite limited in Juggernaut. All of the armor and accessories look identical.
Final Verdict: Good
Juggernaut is an innovative free-to-play fantasy themed MMORPG. It features a combination of high quality 3D graphics with traditional text based elements for a unique gaming experience directly in your browser. Players complete challenging quests, kill hordes of vile monsters, and duel their enemies. Manipulate stones and magical crystals to become one of the most powerful warriors in the land. Join your fellow faction on the battlefield and earn the right to rule the new world. Although the customization options in the game could be better for the most part it's entertaining. Players who enjoy text based role playing games will find this infusion a nice change.

Short Sleeve Embroidered Ramie/Rayon Guayabera
Item# CEFW0076DS
Color :color size
Availability :
The Cubavera Short Sleeve Embroidered Ramie/Rayon Guayabera is one of our most popular styles for good reason: it's an updated classic. The look of the shirt remains firmly rooted in the rich heritage of the Guayabera--four front pockets, side vents with buttons, tucking detail on the front panels--but we've veered away from the norm and made it from a ramie/rayon blend that's light and breathable, and easy to care for. It's also available in an assortment of colors.
- 55% Ramie/45% Rayon
- Machine Washable
- Imported
Rated 3.4 out of 5 by 14 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Leli Great buy End of summer is a perfect time for me to buy these type of shirts for my husband whose birthday is end of summer, they always have a sale and he loves guayaberas, he wears it to work! September 11, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by JohnR Bad Bad, After washing it was ruined!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! June 21, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by LJS4th Wrong Size I purchased two of these shirts to go to a funeral (black) one for my son and one for myself. I paid 2nd day air to get them here, so we could wear them to my Aunt's funeral which my cousin wanted everyone to be causual, but respectful. My son wears an Adult small and his fit great. I wear a XXL and could not even get the shirt on. It had to have been mis-marked,because I have purchased shirts from Cubavera before and XXL was fine for me. I have since returned the shirt after running all over town to find another black shirt to wear to the funeral. To this day I have not gotten a refund on the shirt or the shipping. Like the shirts from Cubavera, but the service is bad and how could anyone think that a shirt that small was XXL is beyond me. June 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Walnuts Stay with the Classics It is exceedingly difficult to find the true classic Guayabera with so many take offs on the market...you have now! Appropriately valued and fit to form, enjoy the Ramie in each authentic color (white, and of course white!) May 31, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ciscodog121 Nice! I ordered two shirts. They fit nicely!! They had a tailored appearance. I liked the material. I searched other sites before deciding to order from Cubavera. I am very glad I chose this company. May 29, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Rere Ramie/Ramon Guayabera Both shirts arrived in good condition. They are well crafted and attractive. When one shirt was washed and dried on permapress cycle, it shrunk by about 30% and I had to give it to a grandson. The label warns that shirt should be dry cleaned or washed cold and dried low. This makes the shirt a garment that must be individually laundered in my household. The second shirt was given to my son and he was warned about the extreme shrinking problem. I will not buy another garment made of this fabric blend. GW April 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by ElGatoVolador Nice guayabera, good value. I bought this beautiful guayabera in red and I am very satisfied with my purchase. The overall quality is good as it seems to have been made of solid material. The only downside: the shirt shrinks A LOT when washing it on a normal cycle, almost by a complete size! Luckily, I knew this before buying it, but you should definitely get it one size larger than other shirts (and, of course, don't even think of putting it in the dryer). March 5, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Dave valentine shirt I bought this because of Valentine's day. I have many shirts from this company. February 17, 2014

The Grateful Dead capped the Sixties with Live/Dead, a double-album that confirmed them as masters of acid-improv. But the spring of 1970 found the group's sound radically redirected on Workingman's Dead. Breezy harmonies and beer-soaked ballads replaced the previous blend of liquid noodling and lysergic lyrics, and no song illustrated the change more succinctly than the opening track, "Uncle John's Band." Jerry Garcia and lyricist Robert Hunter recalled the song's origins in a 1991 interview with Grateful Dead historian Blair Jackson. According to Garcia, "At that time I was listening to records of the Bulgarian Women's Choir and also this Greek-Macedonian music, and on one of those records there was a... little turn of melody that was so lovely... I thought, 'Gee, if I could get this into a song it would be so great.' So, I stole it." Eventually, Hunter received a tape of the band's finished arrangement. "I played it over and over [and] kept hearing the words 'God damn, Uncle John's mad'... and it took a while for that to turn into 'Come hear Uncle John's Band,' and that's one of those little things where the sparkles start coming out of your eyes." The deliberate downshift throughout Workingman's Dead reflected close listening to the Band's first two albums. Said Hunter: "I was so impressed by the songwriting of Robbie Robertson, I just said: 'Oh yeah, this is the direction. This is the way for us.'"
Grateful Dead: The Long, Strange Trip is now on exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio. Among the artifacts featured in the exhibit are artist Stanley Mouse's six portraits of Grateful Dead members, which appeared on the back cover of 1970's Workingman's Dead.

Greetings Fellow Alumni and Friends:
As an alumna of Texas Southern University I could not be prouder of the University's accomplishments. Each year, as we welcome new students to Texas Southern University we are reminded of the legacy left behind by alumni. More than 27% of all African American pharmacists in the U.S. graduated from TSU, the second-largest producer of pharmacists; 17 % of all Houston Independent School District Teachers and administrators hold degrees from TSU; and 43% of newly licensed African American attorneys from Texas graduated from Thurgood Marshall School of Law in the last five years. For many of us, our days at TSU were some of the best experiences of our lives. And now, our involvement as alumni is critical to the success of the University. Without our efforts the University cannot thrive.
Texas Southern University has been ranked 649th in Forbes magazine's list of America's Top Colleges for 2013. TSU is ranked 264th among research universities and 194th among schools in the South. Affordable Colleges Online has ranked Texas Southern as 30th out of 49 Texas universities with the greatest lifetime return on investment. In Diverse Issues in Higher Education magazine's Top 100, TSU is ranked 36th in undergraduate programs, 40th in master's programs, 5th for doctoral programs, 15th for Hispanic doctoral programs, and 17th for all minority doctoral degrees.
Texas Southern University was chosen as one of only 42 sites nationwide to house to the prestigious Confucius Institute aimed at developing academic and cultural programs related to Chinese language and cultures for our students. The partnership TSU has established with the Chinese government and Beijing Jiaotong University will open the global marketplace for our students, faculty, alumni and the community. The University is also on solid financial ground as evidenced by Moody's decision to increase Texas Southern's Bond Ratings another 2 points for a third time – making this the fifth increase in three years. Also, Texas Southern University's Board of Regents recently approved and released plans for a $41.5 million, 215,000 square foot Resident Housing Complex – an 800 bed freshmen facility scheduled to be completed by Fall 2015.
The students who attend Texas Southern University depend on the support of alumni. Without the participation of alumni mentoring students and assisting with fundraising and scholarship initiatives, the students and university cannot succeed. I encourage you to re-establish your commitment to our students and to Texas Southern University through your continued interest. As alumni it is not only our responsibility, but our duty to give back.
As one of the nation's largest HBCUs, in the fourth largest city in the U.S., and one of the fastest-growing and forward-moving cities in the world, Texas Southern University has embarked on a historic transformation to move the institution into the foreground of major urban-serving universities.
Alumni - I encourage you to save the dates for our 2014 Homecoming October 19-25, 2014.
To update your contact information, please fill out this form. Alumni and friends—I look forward to your continued support of Texas Southern University.
Go TIGERS!

Executive Director of Alumni Relations & Special

Awesome early preview. Now I was wondering if the wonderful folks at Phoronix would be able to test the A10-5800k in a crossfire config using the latest Catalyst drivers? Would be really nice to see. Hint Hint.. PLEASE
You've just won the 'Epitome of ignorance' award.
If you are interested in seeing the laughing stock, find a mirror. YOU'RE IT. One who is so worried about the "cool factor" of CPUs that you make CPU vendors a personal issue.
Personally, I'm quite happy with AMD chips, and have been burned a few times by Intel. If I need more performance, I'll just buy more chips. It'll still cost me less.
You're curious about the setup, I can accept that. But I just don't buy AMD's talk that CPU power has ceased to matter right where they started failing to compete.

A last-ditch effort by the California legislature to halt the Internet tax ballot initiative failed yesterday in the Senate. The legislation (AB 155) would have repealed then immediately re-enacted the Internet tax that was signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown in June. Only the new bill would contain an urgency clause—a provision that would make it impossible to be put to a referendum. While lawmakers supported the bill in a 22-12 vote, it required a two-thirds supermajority to pass. Fortunately, the Republican caucus held strong against imposing the tax.
While some California legislators wanted to completely disregard the will of the voters and take away their ability to vote on such an important issue, their efforts to do this were diverted for the time being. The Senate has another opportunity to bring up AB 155 before the end of session this Friday.
Hopefully, Golden State voters will remember this attempt to circumvent democracy when voting on the measure next year. Until then, and unless AB 155 re-emerges, the race is on to explain to Californians why this Internet tax is an affront to the U.S. Constitution and a massive, job-killing tax hike.

Scott Tucker - Kansas City Celebrity and Auto Racing Genius
Although most famous for its steak, barbecue, and jazz music, Kansas City is also a town that boasts a fair share of celebrities from all fields of the arts, entertainment, and professional sports worlds. Kansas City has been the hometown to many stars of the stage and screen, as well as numerous artists and sports legends. And of those who gladly call Kansas City their hometown, one of the more notable residents is Level 5 Motorsports racecar driver, and five-time national champion, Scott Tucker.
Born in Kansas City, Missouri, Scott Tucker is a five-time national sports car racing champion, as well as a private investor with global business interests. Although his remarkable racing career only dates back to 2006, Scott Tucker has made international racing history with his elite racing team, Level 5 Motorsports. He has earned more than 100 podium finishes, 70 victories, and five national championships. As owner and driver for Level 5 Motorsports, he has had podium finishes at every major endurance race – including the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the 24 Hours of Daytona. He's also the envy of auto aficionados everywhere as one of Ferrari's next generation supercar test drivers.
In a sport where wins are practically dominated by seasoned drivers in their thirties, fifty-year-old Scott Tucker is no stranger to top competition. A study of auto racing winners and their respective ages showed that drivers in their mid-thirties are top challengers – with a majority of total victories on the track going to their age group. Scott Tucker, who began his racing career in 2006, is a relative newcomer to the sport but has won championships with Ferrari, Porsche, and Honda. He has excelled in auto racing on tough courses around the world because he is both passionate for and driven toward challenges that require great physical, mental, and intellectual endurance.
Scott Tucker's skilled and disciplined moves on the racetrack are helping him to become one of the most successful endurance racing drivers in the country. And as a driver who remains cool and unshaken while running top racing cars at speeds up to 250 mph, he has convinced the racing world that he won't be slowing down anytime soon.
Currently, Scott Tucker is chasing a record of 100 career wins (with 78 already under his belt). The 2012 American Le Mans Series racing season has Level 5 Motorsports, Scott Tucker, and their HPD ARX-03b Le Mans Prototype race car (developed by a subsidiary of the Honda Motor Company) racking up miles in a number of racing events across the nation.
Fans of auto racing and Kansas City sports car racing champion Scott Tucker and his Level 5 Motorsports team can follow all the racing highlights at the TuckerRacing.com website.

The first question:
Osho,Some of the techniques in the one hundred and twelve methods seem to be end results and not techniques, such as those that say to "Become universal consciousness" or "Be this one" etc. It seems that we need techniques to achieve these techniques. Were techniques like these meant for very advanced persons who could just become cosmic at a mere suggestion?
Such techniques were meant, not for very advanced persons, but for very innocent persons - simple, innocent, trusting. Then just a suggestion is enough. You have to have something to do because you cannot trust. You don't have faith. Unless you do something, nothing can happen to you because you believe in action. If something happens to you suddenly without any doing on your part, you will be scared and you will not believe it. You may even bypass it; you may not even record in the mind that it happened. Unless you do, you cannot feel something happening to you - this is the way of the ego. But for an innocent person, for an innocent, open mind, just a suggestion is enough. Why? Because really, the innermost being is not something to be achieved in the future - it is here and now, it is already the case. Whatsoever is to be attained is here, present in you right this very moment. If you can trust without any effort, it can become revealed. It is not a question of time, of you having to work it out. It is not somewhere far away that you have to travel to. It is you. You may call it God, you may call it nirvana or whatsoever you like - it is you already. So even a suggestion, if believed totally, can reveal it to you. That's why so much significance is given to shraddha, trust, faith. If a person can believe in the master, just a hint, a suggestion, an indication - and in a flash everything will be revealed.
The basic point to be understood is this: there are things which you cannot attain right now because time will be needed to produce them. They are not with you. If I give you a seed, it cannot immediately become a tree. Time will be needed, and you will have to wait and work. Then the seed cannot become the tree immediately. But you are really the tree already. It is not a seed which has to be worked, it is a tree hidden in darkness, it is a tree which is covered, it is a tree which you are inattentive too - that's all. Your inattention is the cover. You are not looking at it, that's all. You are looking somewhere else and that's why you are missing it. In a trusting moment the master can tell you, just by a suggestion, that it is here. And if you can believe, if you can look in that dimension in trust, it will be revealed to you.

This is me!! lol :rolleyes:
This was written by Andy Rooney from CBS 60 Minutes
As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. Here
are just a few reasons why:
A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to
ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.
If a woman over 30 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit
Around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And,
it's usually something more interesting.
A woman over 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she
is, what she is, what she wants and from whom.
Few women past the age of 30 give a BAD_WORD what you might think About
her or what she's doing.
Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you
at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course,
if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think
they can get away with it.
Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know
what it's like to be unappreciated.
A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women
friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best
friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women
over 30 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her Friends
because she knows her friends won't betray her.
Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins
to a woman over 30. They always know.
A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not True
of younger women or drag queens.
Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 is far sexier
than her younger counterpart.
Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off If you
are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever have to Wonder
where you stand with her.
Yes, we praise women over 30 for a multitude of reasons.
Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart,
well-coiffed hot woman of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in
yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old
Ladies, I apologize.
Andy Rooney
For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the
milk for free". Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are
against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying
an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage...
women over 30

George Harrison's Widow Rejects Statue In Hometown
Wednesday, January 16, 2013
George Harrison's widow, Olivia Harrison, has halted outsider plans to erect a statute of "The Quiet Beatle" in his adopted English hometown of Henley-On-Thames. Local fan, James Lambert had sent a petition for the statue to Olivia as a tribute to the late Beatle, who died of cancer in 2001 at age 58. The BBC reported that Olivia's reps informed Lambert that she would prefer "a community project in his name." Harrison purchased Friar Park in Henley-On-Thames on January 14th, 1970
Lambert went on to explain, "The statue could create problems of different types of fans turning up, the unwanted fans. Gauging the pulse in terms of Henley residents I think there was a lot of support. This petition wasn't tapping into the Beatles fanfare worldwide, it was much more to recognize George's contribution to Henley and the affection Henley had for him. It is slightly disappointing but you have to respect Olivia's wishes, as she still has a house in Henley, Friar Park. And I think the danger was it wouldn't just become a Henley acknowledgment of George's work but would encourage more people to visit Henley."
He went on to say: "I think what she's suggesting in terms of a community project would be great and it'll be very exciting to see exactly how this transpires."
Olivia Harrison has taken a hands-on approach to Harrison's legacy, representing him in all Beatles matters, as well as revamping his entire solo catalogue.
Despite all the attention lavished on early collections, All Things Must Pass and Living In The Material World -- along with his late-'70s and '80s work -- two mid-'70s Harrison fan favorites, 1974's Dark Horse and 1975's Extra Texture (Read All About It), have yet to be reissued.
Robert Rodriguez, author of the groundbreaking, Revolver - How The Beatles Reimagined Rock 'N' Roll and his two groundbreaking Beatles FAQ books, explained that Extra Texture at first made for a confusing listen for Beatles fans: "For a lot of people, when they're first hearing of anything from that album, was the 'You' single -- which is this great, upbeat, joyous sounding record. And then if they thet then bought the album. . . it's this album's worth of nothing else that sounds like that on the album. It is an R&B record. It's very soulful, very blue, and I think it disappointed people who were expecting to find another single on it. And certainly there might have been, at the time, this sort of lingering, from the (1974) Dark Horse tour, this perception of George, y'know, not being at his best. Y'know, maybe they were just so disenfranchised with the Harrison persona at the time that they weren't even gonna cut him any slack."

Shabbetai Zevi
The kabbalistic false messiah.
While faith in the coming of the messiah is a linchpin of Judaism, Jews have traditionally taken a patient, quietistic approach to their messianic beliefs. Since the devastation wreaked by false messiah Bar Kochba and his rebellion against the Romans, and the centuries of persecution caused by another messianic movement--Christianity--Jews have been understandably suspicious about anyone's claim to be God's anointed.
The rabbis of the Talmud went so far as to introduce specific prohibitions against messianic agitation, instituting the "three oaths" which prohibited any attempt to "force the end" by bringing the messiah before his allotted time (Babylonian Talmud, Ketubot 111a). Yet in the mid-17th century, belief in the false messiah Shabbetai Zevi spread like wildfire throughout the Jewish world, sweeping up entire communities and creating a crisis of faith unprecedented in Jewish history.
Shabbetai Tzvi was said to be born on the 9th of Av in 1626, to a wealthy family of merchants in Smyrna (now Izmir, Turkey). He received a thorough Talmudic education and, still in his teens, was ordained as a hakham--a member of the rabbinic elite. However, Shabbetai Tzvi was interested less in Talmud than in Jewish mysticism. Starting in his late teens he studied kabbalah, attracting a group of followers whom he initiated into the secrets of the mystical tradition.
Shabbetai Tzvi battled with what might now be diagnosed as severe manic depression. He understood his condition in religious terms, experiencing his manic phases as moments of "illumination" and his times of depression as periods of "fall," when God's face was hidden from him. While at times of depression he became a semi-recluse, when "illuminated" he felt compelled to contravene Jewish law, perform bizarre rituals (ma'asim zari or strange acts), and publicly pronounce the proscribed name of God.
In 1648, Shabbetai Tzvi declared himself to be the messiah but did not make much of an impression on the Smyrna community which had become accustomed to his eccentricities. Nonetheless, the rabbis banished him from his hometown, and he spent much of the 1650s traveling through Greece and Turkey. He was eventually expelled from the Jewish communities in Salonika and Constantinople for violating the commandments and performing blasphemous acts. In the 1660s he arrived in Egypt via Israel. During this period he led a quiet life, displaying no messianic pretensions. The turning point in his messianic career came in 1665 as the result of a meeting with his self-appointed prophet, Nathan of Gaza.
Nathan the Prophet and Zevi the Messiah
Nathan was a man of great intellectual stature, a kabbalist and an ascetic, who Shabbetai Tzvi approached for a mystical remedy to his spiritual malaise. Nathan tried to convince Shabbetai of his messianic identity--having had this secret revealed to him in a vision--and during Shavuot 1665, publicly announced the appearance of the messiah. During his next period of "illumination," Shabbetai Tzvi consented to these claims and initiated his own messianic career. Most rabbis opposed him but, aside from issuing writs of excommunication and banishing him from Jerusalem, took no action against him.

(CNN) -- Pope Francis got an enthusiastic reaction when he spontaneously engaged the crowd with handshakes and hugs on Sunday, but that style might conflict with security considerations, experts say.
"There he was, standing right in front of me reaching out his hand and smiling," said John Bingham, a reporter who got to shake the pope's hand. "It was incredibly different from any pope that I've ever seen at work before."
As the pontiff darted over to the barricades and even went out the gate that opens onto a public street, expressions of concern can be seen on the faces of security officers accompanying him.
"They really looked like they didn't quite know what to make of the situation," said Bingham, who covers religion for the Daily Telegraph in the UK. "I think we saw the car moved five times, just as they desperately tried to work out what he was thinking, what he was going to do."
One Italian newspaper quoted a member of the pope's security detail as saying, if the pope he carries on like this, it will "drive us all crazy."
Andreas Widmer, who protected Pope John Paul II as a member of the Swiss Guard in the 1980s, says a pope has to balance security considerations against his mission of engaging the public and speaking to Catholic audiences around the world.
"The first priority of the papacy is not security. The first priority of the papacy is his ministry," he said. "Having the pope go in St. Peter's Square and things like that -- that's never going to change. That's part and parcel of what he does."
But such openness can be difficult for the people guarding him, a former White House security official said.
"It has to be a nightmare for the security people," said Joe Hagin, who is now with Command Consulting. "Everyone has a different style, and it's security's job to adapt to that style. But I did feel sorry for them."
Vatican spokesman the Rev. Thomas Rosica on Monday expressed confidence in the pope's security team.
"This is something brand new, and they will adapt to that, because they are extremely competent and well-prepared," he said.
Widmer said that based on his experience, the guards are well-trained.
"They know exactly what they are doing," said Widmer. "It's just like a football team: you know what the moves are, where to go, and what to do."
For example, in describing the pope's interaction Sunday, he said, "I think you saw a few times in the video yesterday: as things get crazier, they actually get closer to the pope."
The security of the pope is hardly a new concern. The Swiss Guard began protecting the pope in the 1400s, and in the 1200s, a special passage was built from Vatican City to Castel Sant'Angelo, which served several times as an escape route for popes in danger.
But the near-assassination in 1981 of Pope John Paul II, who was shot four times, prompted security improvements such as bulletproof glass on the popemobile used for public appearances.
Still, John Paul reportedly declined to wear bulletproof vests in public, rejecting the idea as an improper way to avoid Christ's will, according to Bishop Robert Morlino of Madison, Wisconsin. Morlino told the Madison Capital Times that John Paul said his reasoning was this: "I will not die one minute before Jesus Christ wills it, and I will not live one more minute after Jesus Christ wills it."
When the next pope, Benedict XVI, went to Turkey in 2006, there were conflicting reports over whether he would wear a protective vest. But he, too, had the occasional surprises. In 2011, a boy from the audience ran right up to him (he responded with a quick blessing), and on Christmas Eve in 2009, a woman in St. Peter's Basilica jumped over a barricade, eluded a man in a suit who tried to stop her and rushed at Benedict, causing him to fall.
Hagin warns that if Pope Francis develops a predictable routine of meeting with the public, it could pose a security challenge.
"If those who would do him harm know that he is holding a Mass somewhere and know that every time he holds the Mass he goes to the crowd afterwards outside, that would be a problem," he said.
But Widmer says he approves of the new pope's style and says it is up to the guards to adapt to it. Pope Francis, he said, clearly wants to be out among the people.
"He doesn't just shake people's hand; he hugs them, he kisses them," he said. "And that is an expression of the papacy that is just amazing."

What a Birthday!
You're lookin good! Keith.
Who was the good looking woman lounging around your luxury apartment above the yacht basisn? Barbara!
I am enjoying your travel blog. Thanks and send more photos!
Linda and I are fine. Touring California in August.
We want to see your slide show IF you ever return home. Barbara: you are just so good for Keith!
Linda and John
What a birthday!
Loading Map
Of course, high season in Punta is January and February, and we are here in late fall. But it's still a beautiful place. When we arrived last Friday, it was Indian Summer and warm. Today, it is Fall and a little cooler, but sunny and gorgeous.
To visualize Punta, think a mix of the new beach resorts along Florida's Panhandle (Seaside and Watercolor) with some glamourous high-rises from Miami/Ft. Lauderdale. And behind the high-rises lining most of the beaches are some neighborhoods reminiscent of Winter Park.
Our apartment here is a big step up from the one in Buenos Aires, the small studio that Barbara dubbed the "shoebox in the sky." This apartment is beautifully decorated and MUCH larger.
In addition to the yacht basin across the street, there are several nearby restaurants to keep us well-fed.
But staying fed is not really a problem. The apartment comes with a maid who cooked a great birthday dinner from a recipe that Barbara found.
In short, this is a great place to spend my birthday.

What a Birthday!
Re: What a Birthday!
Hello, John and Linda. Glad you are enjoying the blog.
California tour sounds great. I have only been to San Fran and Sonoma, but loved it. We will look forward to hearing about your trip.
I don't know if I'll do more with the photos. We took 1200 pictures in Mexico, 1700 in Argentina, and 750 so far in Uruguay. I download and sort them every few days, but going through +4000 pictures to make a slide show will take time. Of course, since real estate development is dead, I guess I have a little extra time.
And yes, Barbara is VERY good for me.
See you soon.

Wildcats look to build on strong first half
Saturday, December 29, 2012
DURHAM — Connor Hardowa was anxious to get back to campus for two reasons: he had enough time off and the weather is warmer.
Bemidji State and Massachusetts will meet in Sunday's first game (4). Win or lose Sunday, the Wildcats are scheduled to play again on Monday at 4 p.m.
"We're focusing on Sunday night," Burke said. "We understand the magnitude of that game."
Dartmouth (97.5) ranks first nationally in penalty killing with UNH (96.3) second.
"There's no more breaks now," Umile said. "The first half is over. What you did the first half you can forget."

#UAGame practice: Day 1 notebook
December, 31, 2012
By Kipp Adams | ESPN Insider
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -– Team Nitro and Team Highlight took to the fields at Disney's ESPN Wide World of Sports on Monday for Day 1 of practice for Friday's Under Armour All-America Game (5 p.m. ET, ESPN). Two powerhouse programs in the Southeastern Conference look to battle it out for one of the standout running backs, and one of the top uncommitted offensive linemen is out with an injury.
Tide and Dawgs at top for RB Kamara
The Under Armour All-America Game boasts a bevy of talented running backs, and after the first practice ESPN 150 prospect Alvin Kamara (Norcross, Ga./Norcross) drew comparisons to one of the best.
"They say I play like Percy Harvin," Kamara said.
[+] Enlarge
Miller Safrit/ESPN.comESPN 150 RB Alvin Kamara says Alabama defensive coordinator Kirby Smart and Georgia running backs coach Bryan McClendon have been key to his recruiting process.
The 5-foot-10, 192-pound tailback has made a name for himself as a home-run threat out of the backfield or lined up in the slot, which makes it no surprise that programs across the country are pining for his commitment. Two from the SEC are in the lead.
"Alabama and Georgia are the front-runners, but I am still looking at Oregon -- and Tennessee too, with Butch Jones being there now," Kamara said.
The nation's No. 4 running back has yet to set any official visits, but plans to do so after he gets home from the UA Game. A decision will likely come after his visits.
"This is not going to be a busy month so much as it is just something I need to buckle down and do," Kamara said. "I am going to take these visits and base my decision off of that."
One factor in his decision will be the relationship he has with the coaches recruiting him. The Tide could have a slight advantage because they made first contact with Kamara.
"Kirby Smart and I are really close," Kamara said. "He was the first coach to ever talk to me. He snuck me his card after practice and I could not believe it. For a coach of his stature to be the first coach to talk to me is great. We have been in contact ever since, and we have a great relationship."
Georgia might counter that with their running backs coach being Kamara's recruiter of record.
"Coach [Bryan] McClendon and I have a great relationship too," Kamara said. "With him being my position coach, I could see myself playing for him. We are on a friend level and we do not even talk about football most of the time."
The in-state Bulldogs also have a few people in Kamara's ear this week, though he admits they have been putting the pressure on him for quite some time.
"Even when we are not in a big event like this, guys like Shaq Wiggins, Brice Ramsey, even Reuben [Foster], even though he is not committed, are always asking where I am going," Kamara said. "They are joking, but they are on me pretty hard sometimes."
Newsworthy: OL Crowder deals with injury, sets officials
ESPN 150 offensive lineman Tyrone Crowder (Rockingham, N.C./Richmond) will be unable to play in Friday's UA Game after aggravating a hand injury he sustained a few weeks ago at the Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas. While he is disappointed, Crowder said today he is looking forward to the home stretch of his recruitment and choosing from one of two programs.
"It is Clemson No. 1 and Georgia No. 2, and I will decide on signing day," said Crowder, ranked the No. 2 OG in the country.
The Tigers have been after the 6-foot-1, 330-pound offensive lineman for more than three years now, and they have location and familiarity working in their favor.
"Clemson has been recruiting me since I was in ninth grade," Crowder said. "I like what they have going on and I have built a strong relationship with them. It is close to home and I have some family close to Clemson. I will take my official there Jan. 11."
Crowder has not been to Athens for six months, but he has fond memories of his visit.
"Georgia is a great powerhouse team in the SEC," Crowder said. "When I went down there during the summer I really liked the campus and enjoyed meeting the coaches. I spoke to them two weeks ago and set an official visit Jan. 18."
It was only the first day of practice, but Team Highlight (Black team) quarterbacks got off to an impressive start.

Chordee is a birth defect of the penis. It causes the penis to be curved downward during an erection.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Chordee occurs when the baby is developing in the womb. It is sometimes due to a shortened urethra or having thick tissue around the urethra. The urethra is the tube that connects the bladder to the outside of the body so that urine can exit. Other times, the problem may be due to the skin on the bottom side of the penis being too short.
One risk factor is
. With this condition, the opening of the urethra is on the bottom of the penis instead of at the tip of the penis.
Symptoms include:
The condition may be diagnosed during a physical exam. A specialist called a urologist may do a procedure to create an artificial erection. This allows the doctor to examine the penis. Chordee may also be found during surgery to fix another problem that affects the penis.
This condition may not be detected until later in childhood.
In mild cases, surgery may not be needed. Your child's condition will be monitored. In other cases,
may be done to straighten the penis. The curved appearance will be straightened by:
Surgery is usually done in children aged 3-18 months.
There is no known way to prevent this condition.
