Quick stats | |
Type: | Constitutional amendment |
Constitution: | Article IV, Section VII - New Jersey Constitution |
Referred by: | New Jersey State Legislature (Advisory question) |
Topic: | Gambling |
Status: | Approved |
Despite being referred to the ballot by the state legislature and calling for a constitutional amendment, the measure was not binding. Sports betting would not be allowed in the state until a federal law that limits sports betting in four states was repealed or overturned.[1]
If the federal law is overturned then the bill would allow betting on sports events from the amateur to professional level. Wagering would take place at casinos in Atlantic City and state racetracks. Those wishing to place a wager on an event would be able to do so in person, by telephone or on the internet. However, a ban was included on placing bets on college games that take place in the state or where a state college was involved [2].
The measure was sent to the ballot on December 13, 2010, after the state legislature voted in favor of referring the measure to the ballot.[3][4]
On November 9, immediately following the election, U.S. House Rep. Frank Pallone, Jr. announced that he would introduce legislation in Congress on November 14 in efforts to lift the federal ban on sports betting in Atlantic City casino and New Jersey racetracks.[5][6]
Specifically, the legislation calls for removing the state of New Jersey from the federal ban and allowing a lottery, sweepstakes or other betting. The bill would not allow wagering on college games. If approved and enacted, the legislation would take effect immediately.[5]
Also following the vote, State Sen. Raymond Lesniak said he planned to introduce legislation on November 11 to authorize the Casino Control Commission to issue license for sports betting to casinos and racetrack operators. If approved, State Attorney General Paula Dow could then go to federal court and ask that the federal ban be declared unconstitutional.[7] Dow has not said whether she would pursue a lawsuit.[8]
In addition to authorizing licenses for sports betting, it would set the tax rate on casino and racetrack profits at 8 percent which is the same rate the casinos pay on their gambling revenue. The bill is expected to be fast tracked and legislators said they hope to have the bill on Gov. Chris Christie's desk by the end of the 2011 legislative session.[8]
On December 1, 2011 the New Jersey State Senate State Government, Wagering, Tourism and Historic Preservation Committee approved a bill that would permit sports betting at state racetracks and casinos. The committee voted 4-1.[9]
On January 9, 2012 the New Jersey State Legislature approved a bill that would allow the state Casino Control Commission to issue licenses to casinos and racetracks to accept bets on some professional and collegiate events. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie signed the legislation that same month. Then in May 2012, Christie stated he would move forward with regulations to install sports betting in Atlantic City casinos and the state's racetracks.[10][11][12][13]
The approved legislation, however, remains pending due to the existing federal ban.
As of January 23, 2012 two proposals were filed in the United States Congress. One was filed by Rep. Frank LoBiondo and another filed by Rep. Frank Pallone. LoBiondo's proposal called for allowing states to seek permission to circumvent the 1992 federal law. Pallone's proposal, however, focused on an exemption solely for the state of New Jersey.[14]
Lawsuit by sports organizations
This issue came to a boil, as The National Football League and other professional sports leagues filed a lawsuit in late 2012 against the proposals to allow sports betting in the state of New Jersey.
Lawyers for the state then asked a federal judge to toss a lawsuit filed by the sports leagues. In a 48-page U.S. District Court filing state Attorney General Jeffrey Chiesa and former U.S. Solicitor General Ted Olson say that the federal law limiting sports betting to only select states is unconstitutional.
The National Football league stated that legalization of sports betting in New Jersey would subsequently result in damage to their business, claiming that fans would become suspicious of fixed games. Attorneys for the state of New Jersey countered by saying the professional leagues have benefited from sports betting in Nevada.[15]
Reports out of the state claimed that The U.S. Department of Justice planned to intervene in the lawsuit filed by the National Football League and four other sports organizations.
Paperwork was filed by the department on January 22, 2013, - a three page statement on the last day of a 60-day window allowed by Judge Michael Shipp for the federal government to intervene in the case.
Judge Shipp ruled that the federal ban on sports gambling was constitutional and superseded state law, thus blocking sports betting in the state. Gov. Christie, leaders in the state legislature, and the owners of Monmouth Park racetrack filed an appeal of the decision on March 13.[16]
The case now goes before the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia.

Text of measure
Ballot language
The official ballot language read as follows:[17].
"Shall the amendment to Article IV, Section VII, paragraph 2 of the Constitution of the State of New Jersey, agreed to by the Legislature, providing that it shall be lawful for the Legislature to authorize by law wagering at casinos or gambling houses in Atlantic City and at current or former running and harness horse racetracks on the results of professional, certain college, or amateur sport or athletic events, be approved?"
- Yes
- No
Interpretive statement
The interpretive statement of the measure read:[18]
- This constitutional amendment would authorize the Legislature to pass laws allowing sports wagering at Atlantic City casinos and at racetracks. Wagers could be placed on professional, certain college, or amateur sport or athletic events. However, wagers could not be placed on college games that take place in New Jersey or in which a New Jersey college team participates regardless of where the game takes place. A wager could be placed at a casino or racetrack either in-person or from any other location through an account wagering system that uses telephone, Internet or other means.
Constitutional changes
If the federal ban is lifted, the measure would amend Article IV, Section 7, Paragraph 2 of the New Jersey Constitution.[2]
Lawsuit against federal ban
In 1992, the U.S. Congress passed the "Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act." The Act banned sports betting in all states with the exception of those states that already allowed some form of betting when the law was approved. Such states include: Montana, Oregon, Delaware, and Nevada.[19]
In 2009, New Jersey State Senator Raymond Lesniak filed a lawsuit in United States District Court that argued that a 1992 federal ban on sports betting in forty-six states should be deemed unconstitutional. In the lawsuit, Lesniak pointed out that the law treats four states differently than the rest of the country. The ban placed an exemption for New Jersey, which was allowed to decide if it wanted sports betting, but the Garden State failed to pass a law that would have enacted this, which effectively killed the exemption.
U.S. District Court Judge Garret Brown dismissed the lawsuit during the week of March 7, 2011, stating that voters have not weighed in on the issue.[20]
In a statement made by Lesniak about both the ruling and the 2011 ballot measure, the state senator claimed: "...in [the judges] decision to dismiss, he left the door open for future efforts to overturn the unconstitutional ban in the courts. If voters in the Garden State approve a referendum...we will essentially set up a constitutional crisis, in which the will of the people, expressed at the ballot box, will come into conflict with a flawed and ultimately unconstitutional federal law. I believe that when that happens, the courts will have to rule in our favor."[20]
The U.S. Department of Justice opposed the lawsuit, stating their disagreement to repeal the federal ban, also known as the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act.
Supporters of the proposed measure included various lawmakers, the Casino Association of New Jersey, Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc., American Wagering Inc. and the Center for Gaming Research at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
In response to the fact the measure was an advisory measure until the federal law was overturned, Robert Griffin, president of the association and CEO of Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc., said, "This November referendum, if passed, would provide an important step in the continuing process towards overturning the federal sports betting ban. If the referendum is passed and if the federal ban is subsequently overturned, legal sports betting would provide an economic boost for Atlantic City and the entire state of New Jersey."[19]
Sen. Raymond Lesniak said, "It's just so wrong that the federal government allows sports betting to take place in Nevada and not in New Jersey. During Super Bowl week and Final Four week, you can't get a room in Las Vegas--and Atlantic City is barren. We need that tourism. We need that revenue."[21] Despite the federal law, Lesniak vowed to introduce legislation should the measure be approved by voters on November 8, 2011.[22]
- Casino Association of New Jersey
- Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc.
- American Wagering Inc.
- Center for Gaming Research at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas
- Sen. Raymond Lesniak
- Sen. Jeff Van Drew
- State Assemblywoman Concetta Wagner
- Sen. Robert Gordon[23]
- Oceanport's mayor and council
- Gov. Chris Christie
- According to State Senator Raymond Lesniak, who introduced the proposal, "It's putting us in a position to take advantage of a change in the law. So next Super Bowl next year, we'll be able to bet, just like people in Nevada can." According to the bill's co-sponsor, State Senator Jeff Van Drew, "New Jersey dropped the ball once when it came to legalizing sports betting. Now is our chance to get it right. Pennsylvania's slot parlors are already out-hauling our own casinos, and without new ways to draw bettors to Atlantic City, its competitive edge will dull."[24][3]
- Senator Raymond Lesniak had been a supporter of allowing sports betting in New Jersey to allow struggling casinos in Atlantic City to expand their revenues. Lesniak filed a lawsuit in 2009 to overturn a 1992 law banning sports betting in 46 states and Washington, D.C.[4].
- State Assemblywoman Concetta Wagner supported the idea of the amendment, stating, "Sports betting already exists in New Jersey, but only the criminals are enjoying the profits. Sports fans put billions of dollars on the line every year, regardless of its legality. A legal Atlantic City and race track-based sports book would ensure bettors are not fleeced or put in harm's way."[4]
- Casino Association of New Jersey, the trade group of the state's casino operators, stated support of the measure. According to group president Bob Griffin: "Legalized sports betting will attract more tourists to visit our city and enjoy our world-class entertainment, thriving restaurant industry, brand-name retail shopping and famous Boardwalk. Sports betting will allow Atlantic City to better compete, grow and reinvest in the region."[25]
- Oceanport's mayor and council approved a resolution in support of Public Question 1. The resolution said in part, "NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor & Council of the Borough of Oceanport that they support a constitutional amendment, "authorizing the legislature by law to allow wagering on sports events at Atlantic City casinos and at horse racetracks"; and urge residents to do the same when voting on November 8, 2011..."[26]
- Gov. Chris Christie said on November 2 that sports betting should not be limited to a few states. "The fact is now gaming is everywhere in many states across the country, so there's no reason why sports gaming in my view should be restricted," he said. Christie also agreed to work with Sen. Lesniak to try to implement sports betting in the state.[27] In September 2011, Christie reportedly said that it was pointless to pursue sports betting in light of the existing federal ban.[23]
According to the state campaign finance database, there are no registered committees (PACs).
(last updated October 2011)
- Harrah's Entertainment, the well known casino company opposed the amendment calling the referendum vote "premature" without changing federal laws allowing the expansion of sports betting. Harrah's cited that Montana, Oregon, Delaware, and Nevada only allow sports betting under a 1992 federal law banning sports wagering in 46 states and the District of Columbia[4].
- The National Football League (NFL) has traditionally opposed the expansion of sports betting beyond Nevada. In response to the New Jersey measure NFL spokesperson Brian McCarthy said that the league has a "long-held, unwavering opposition to gambling on NFL games."[23]
According to the state campaign finance database, there are no registered committees (PACs).

Media editorial positions
- The Asbury Park Press said, "If it ever happens, legalized sports betting in New Jersey could end up being too little, too late for Atlantic City's struggling casinos and racetracks. Nonetheless, we think that sports betting should come to Atlantic City because, frankly, it's practical and it might help lure visitors and preserve jobs — something that's of utmost importance for New Jersey's economy. The issue will be the only statewide public question on the Nov. 8 election ballot. We strongly support its passage."[28]
- The Press of Atlantic City said, "So let's go for it. We certainly have no moral qualms about sports betting, considering how widespread it already is, legally and illegally. Interestingly, this time around, the professional sports leagues don't seem to be lobbying against the measure."[29]
- The Times of Trenton said, "Illegal sports betting is estimated to generate about $400 billion a year; some put the figure at closer to half a trillion dollars. New Jersey, like every other state, is virtually powerless to stop the illegal transactions. Why not, then, legally establish sports wagering in a way that benefits the state with a new source of tax revenue? That's the question voters will have to answer Nov. 8. We believe the right response is yes."[30]
- The Star-Ledger said, "Still, there's no reason New Jersey shouldn't try to get a slice of the action. Face it: The state needs the money and casinos need this lifeline...In the end, passage would be moot unless a federal law limiting sports betting to four states is lifted. But voters should vote yes."[31]
- The Gloucester County Times said, "If the only statewide question on Tuesday's ballot were straightforward in its wording, and didn't hide its practical, immediate effect, we'd recommend a "yes" vote...As we've stated before, the ban is discriminatory....Nonetheless, there are less-convoluted ways to fight the ban, including working with our congressional delegation to repeal it. The safer bet on Tuesday is to vote "no," even if you're among the majority of state voters whom polls say want to allow this kind of wagering."[32]
- The Inquirer said, "Sports betting is a bad bet for New Jersey. It already relies too heavily on gambling in a market saturated with wagering opportunities. Making sports betting legal would also make it easier to breed more compulsive gamblers. Sports have already been plagued by illegal betting scandals that raise questions about the integrity of games. New Jerseyans should vote NO."[33]
- The Record said, "We have not seen any organized campaigns in support of either side. No matter how much or how little publicity the question is generating, the proposal is a bad idea and should be defeated."[34]
- See also: Polls, 2011 ballot measures
- A poll released during mid-April 2011 by Fairleigh Dickinson University's PublicMind found that 53 percent of respondents supported sports betting in the state, while 30 percent opposed. The poll's margin of error was plus or minus 4 percentage points.[35]
- A poll released on October 10, 2011 by Fairleigh Dickinson University's PublicMind found that 52 percent support legalizing gambling, while 31 percent are opposed. The poll surveyed 800 registered voters and had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.[36]
- Additionally, pollsters said that 70 percent of voters said they had to yet to hear information related to the proposal and 67 percent said they had little interest in the issue.[37]
- A October 6-9 poll by Rutgers-Eagleton Poll revealed that 58 percent of polled registered voters are in favor of Public Question 1, while 31 percent are opposed and 12 percent were undecided. The poll surveyed 903 adults, including a sample of 821 registered voters and 603 likely voters. The poll had a margin of error of +/- 4.0 percentage points.[38][39]
Date of Poll | Pollster | In favor | Opposed | Undecided | Number polled |

Path to the ballot
- See also: Amending the New Jersey Constitution
In New Jersey, the state legislature must approve a proposed amendment by a supermajority vote of 60% but the same amendment can also qualify for the ballot if successive sessions of the New Jersey State Legislature approve it by a simple majority. Four states (Connecticut, Hawaii, New Jersey and Pennsylvania) have an either/or system: a proposed amendment must be passed by simple majority in two separate legislative sessions, or by a supermajority vote of one session.[40]
Gambling on the ballot in 2011 |
Senate vote
The Senate version of the amendment was approved unanimously by the Senate State Government, Wagering, Tourism & Historic Preservation Committee by a 4-0 vote on February 8, 2010. A public hearing on SCR 49 was held on April 5, 2010 in Atlantic City, New Jersey[41] [42][43]
There were two floor votes scheduled in the Legislature, but were postponed. The first floor vote was scheduled for May 20, 2010, but was put on hold in anticipation of New Jersey winning the rights to host Super Bowl XLVIII in 2014. Due to Harrah's expressing objection to the sports betting amendment, a Senate floor vote was put on hold until June 21, 2010. The Assembly version of the amendment was approved in committee on June 17, 2010. The amendment did not qualify for the November 2010 ballot as the Legislature did not schedule a vote before August 2, 2010, the deadline to qualify a constitutional amendment.[44] [45][46][47][48].
2011 referral
New Jersey lawmakers voted in favor of sending the proposed constitutional amendment to the November 2011 ballot on December 13, 2010.[4]

Static routes improves overall performance of your network (especially bandwidth saving). They are also useful in stub networks (i.e. there is only one link to the network). For example, each LAN (located at different offices) is connected to HQ IDC (Internet data center) using single T1/LL/Wan links.
For example under Red Hat/Fedora Linux you can add static router for eth0 network interface by editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0 file. Under Debian Linux add static route by editing /etc/network/interface file.

My issues: The ice-maker tray keeps braking. I am now going on the third one and Bosch has the face to charge me for it every time. The failure is always in the exact same area.
Their solution: Buy the complete ice-maker unit ($110) to replace a $5 part (the actual tray). Their customer service? They don't know what that is.
While on the phone with one of their customer service people a supervisor named 'Grace' decided a service tech visit for $199 was required to determine the cause of the problems I am experiencing. What a joke.
The tray obviously has a design flaw and is not fit for service. Bosch tries to stick it to their customers by selling service tech visits and new components.
I have a Bosch fridge, Bosch washer as well as dryer. I will never buy another Bosch product in my lifetime and will make sure everybody I know will find out how lousy they treat their valued customers.
My recommendation to you prospective buyers is this: Do not buy a Bosch product. No matter what.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- We have a two year old Bosh 800 series refrigerator. Last summer our compressor broke. We called Bosh to fix it. They sent a tech to view the problem and then tell me they not fix compressors even though it is under warranty. I then had to call another company and have someone else come out and fix it. Two half days off from work for all of this. Now it is a year later and our control panel on the front of our fridge stopped working and the Freezer is not cold. No ice or water either. A Bosh tech came out and said we needed a new control panel. He came back three days later as he had to order the part. He installed it and $450 dollars later he said all would work. I waited a day for the freezer to get cold and it has not.
I called Bosh again saying the 2nd part of the problem was not fixed. They now sent out another tech who tells me I need two parts and Bosh is not allowed to fix this and I have to call another service provider. This tech also said there was no reason to get a new control panel. Yes, they work for the same company. He told me to call Bosh and complain. At this point I am irate. Now two days after this tech visits our control panel is not working again. I call Bosh and they tell me I need another service call from their tech. They will not allow the other company I have coming out to fix the freezer to fix it.
I am now soon to go into my 5th visit from Bosh and other service company for this dam Fridge. I have to tell you that Bosh has the worst service I have seen from any company. It is also the worst Fridge I have ever seen. I will have taken 5 half days off from work for all of this. NEVER BUY A BOSH PRODUCT. Their customer service is horrible and there products are worse!
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- I have 5 Bosch appliances and like them - but heaven help you if you need service and repairs.
My dryer broke. When I made the service call, the representative informed me that It would take 2 weeks to get an appointment and though I told him that the dryer was stacked on the washer HE DID NOT IMFORM ME that the repair man would not service the machine unless and until it was taken off the washer. So the service man took one look at the machines and told me to make another appointment. He said that he could bring a second repair man (with two $ clocks ticking) to take down the dryer, and he would repair it then. Oh, also there was a $100 service charge which would cover the first 18 minutes of service.
The repair man left without telling me whether I had the option of removing the machine myself or whether he would help me remove it. He also hadn't bothered to explain or show me how to unstack the dryer from the washer.
I made another appointment for a week later and told the service representative that I was going to unstack the machine myself and not to send two repair men (at double the price). I asked the representative how to unstack the machines and was told that the repair man would show me when he came back. I explained that the first time around this block the service representative did not deem that info important enough to share with me. Otherwise I would not have needed to schedule a second appointment.
I looked everywhere for instructions on how to unstack the dryer - which is nowhere to be found on the Bosch or any other site. I was not able to get the machines unstacked before the repair man returned because they had been installed with the mounting bracket backwards so that instead of sliding forward, the machine could only be removed by sliding the machine back - something that was impossible to do because it was against the wall in a laundry closet.
After the repair man explained the mounting problem, he told me to schedule a third appointment when the machines were unstacked and left. Three weeks had now passed.
I had to break two of the leveling feet to get the machine unstacked, which now sat on the floor of our NYC apartment's bathroom (think small space). I scheduled a third appointment and told the representative that I also needed to order a new set of feet. The representative told me that he would put them on the work order and have the repair man bring them. I told the service line representative that I HAD TO HAVE THE FEET - otherwise I could not re-stack the machine. I called the service line the day before the (third) scheduled appointment to double check that the feet were on the service order (they were). However when the service man arrived, the first question I asked him was - "Do you have the leveling feet" to which he responded "No, the part number was not on my service order."
I immediately called called the service line and was informed that while they had put the part on the work order, THEY DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO THE PART NUMBER. To which I responded, "Then why the hell did the service line representative assure me that the repair man would bring it?"
Meanwhile, the clock was ticking away (and the repair charge mounting) as the repair man spoke to HIS supervisor about the missing feet. After 15 minutes of this I told the repair man that there was no way I was paying for this wasted time and the clock needed to start when the actual repair work started. I also called service and spoke to a supervisor who promised that the feet would be sent to me at no charge. I would get them on Monday.
The repair man actually turned out to be the only reasonable person in the mix. He repaired the dryer quickly (a broken belt - a $12 part), spoke to his supervisor and arranged a discount on the bill. And it only took a month to get the dryer fixed!
At 9AM this morning when I checked with Bosch for the shipping tracking number I was informed that the feet were not shipped on Friday, as promised, but today, and were not sent overnight delivery, as promised, but by standard mail. We'd get them on Thursday...if we were lucky.
Once again, I asked to speak to a supervisor and again complained about the complete and total inadequacy of Bosch service. I insisted that a second set of feet be overnighted to me by FedEx (at no charge) and the supervisor reluctantly agreed. (Julie, a reality check - you definitely don't have the temperament to be in the service biz.) She said that I would get a call a little later with the tracking number. It's 14 hours later. Still not call.
I will be shocked if FedEx arrives with the package tomorrow morning. Meanwhile, the dryer has been blocking the bathroom for 11 days.
OTTAWA -- In August 2012 we moved into our newly constructed home. We had purchased new Bosch kitchen appliances - French door refrigerator, dishwasher, induction cooktop and double wall ovens. Imagine my surprise when we removed the protective blue covering from the refrigerator and found two noticeable discolorations. I promptly called the retailer who insisted the problem was cosmetic and told me to call Bosch. I did so and was asked to email photos to them. They called back to say that they would send cleaning cloths... as if I hadn't tried that already. I tried calling back and left messages quoting my problem number and no one called me back. I emailed. I wrote snail mail. No one ever contacted me. I will never recommend Bosch.
I have never been treated so badly in my life. I don't think you know what your customer svc reps are doing. I have been manipulated, lied to, stonewalled and more. I had an Aquastar 1600H-NG installed by a licensed, qualified, experienced plumber and my unit does not work. Your techs had me dis-assemble part of my tankless water heater. We found parts that were installed incorrectly but that did not solve the problem. He had me dis-assemble another component and then I was mysteriously disconnected. I think he didn't know what to do and didn't want to process my case. I know he had my number because I had established that with him and asked him to call me back if we got disconnected. He did not call me back and I was left with a dis-assembled unit. After I got through being on hold again for 20 minutes the next tech told me the 1st tech tried to call but my line was busy. He was lying. I had my phone in my hand while waiting for him to call me. I was further instructed by another tech to re-assemble that component and then remove another component which I did. Then the tech had me operate the unit without a safety guard in place and flames shot out and burned my eyebrows. He blamed me for standing too close to the unit. I finally asked for a supervisor and the tech started arguing with me. He said a supervisor wasn't going to tell me anything different than what he was telling me. I had to really fight to get a word in while he talked over top of me. He finally said that a supervisor would have to call me back and if course I haven't heard a thing. I don't expect I will. I have been on the phone for HOURS. I am not exaggerating. Yesterday I paid a licensed plumber 85.00 per hour to troubleshoot my unit under the directions of a Bosch tech. Why should I have to repair anything Bosch makes when it doesn't work right out of the box? Your techs will not tag this unit as defective so that I can exchange it. The wholesaler I bought it from refuses to let me return the unit unless I pay a 20% restocking fee because Bosch says the unit is functional. It is not only defective, it is a safety issue. Do you know the liability you would incur if someone died in a house fire because of this unit? This unit is installed properly in every way. You are BOSCH! You are a World Class Company. Tell me someone there knows this is wrong.
I'm not sure if writing this review will help anyone, but if I can at least save one person from the nightmare that is Bosch/Sears then it was worth the effort. I purchased $12,000 worth of appliances from Sears in April, 2010. I bought all Bosch. The dishwasher works fine, but the delivery people put a 12 inch gash through three of my brandnew hand scraped hardwood floor planks, that I have yet to have repaired and have been given the run around on. The gas cooktop is underwhelming, and I haven't tried the oven yet, so I can't comment. The side by side refrigerator arrived completely broken, including a broken handle, broken computer module, and broken temp controls. The "repair" guy arrived today, one week late, and asked me how to turn the fridge on and how to find the model number. Stay away from Bosch/Sears and save yourself $$$$.
HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA -- We had this Range (HES5022U) for two and a half years when the touch pad quit working on one side. Called a local Bosch certified Rep. He came out looked at the stove (only the outside)and said "You need a new module" which would cost about $150 plus installation. Thought it strange that he didn't look inside the range for a loose wire or some other problem. After he left I opened the back and discovered the Module was attached to the front glass with 2 sided tape, and this connection was right above the oven vent which spews out heat and moisture. The Module was attached to the front glass and had pulled loose from the tape and apparently was far enough from the glass so it wouldn't react to a finger touch on the glass. The local Rep still thought we needed a new Module, so I e-mailed Bosch stating the problem (but received no response)and finally called Bosch to see if they had revised this connection. The only solution the consumer Rep would recommend was replacing the module. My point was that it doesn't make any logical sense to spend $200 to $300 to replace a perfectly good Module with one that would more than likely have the same problem in a few more years if they hadn't revised their connection to the glass. Neither the local Rep or the Bosch Rep seemed to have a clue as to how these stoves were put together. Any Company that would use 2 sided tape to attach a very important and pricey component on a heat generating product must be sorely lacking in Engineering experience and they are definitely lacking in customer service. I finally fixed this problem by forcing the Module against the glass by jamming two five cent washers under a nearby metal plate. So far its working fine. I can only hope the construction of the rest of the stove and our Bosch dishwasher are Engineered better than this Mickey Mouse connection. Needless to say once these two Appliances break down they won't be replaced with Bosch products.
JOHNSON CITY, TENNESSEE -- After 1 year 2 months my (expensive)Bosch front-loading washing machine just stopped working. Since March 11, I have had over one month of every other day trips to the laundry mat, and 2 days of waiting for service technician, as well as multiple phone calls to Bosch and the service company and the washer is still not fixed. First the CPU board was replaced. Then the motor was replaced. Both of these replacements took 10 days to 2 weeks to get the part even though I offered to pay myself for overnight shipping. Neither fixed the machine. The last part ordered on April 4 - a motor control unit ??, which was still not even shipped by April 16th and the service repair people told me for the first time after several calls to them that it was back ordered, but was being "picked and packed" whatever that meant.
Even though the parts were still under warranty, Bosch representatives were totally non-helpful during or after several phone calls, the last one on April 14 when I faxed them all information requested including repair history and waited on their promise to hear from them within 48 hours. 48 hours later, April 16, I had heard nothing from Bosch or the service company who had previously told me the part would be thereby the 16th. (I also cannot understand why Bosche directed me to an authorized service repair company in another state and several miles away that can only get to my city on certain days of the week due to distance which adds several days to repair interims - when there is an authorized repair service right here in my city about 5 miles from my home???).
On April 16, I called Bosche and informed them I could not wait any longer and would be purchasing a new washing machine at my own expense and expected to receive a complete refund for the Bosch machine or would take legal action. Finally someone at Bosch has arranged for the next part to be overnighted directly to me to arrive April 17, and has arranged for the technician to replace it the next day on April 18. I have agreed to wait until April 18 to see if the machine is repaired with the THIRD new part before purchasing a new machine (obviously it will not be a Bosch) and proceed as needed for a refund. Too bad someone has to resort to this to get timely repair or even attention. Also asked about the warranty on all these new replacement parts and was informed the warranty on "replacement" parts is only one year as opposed to two years under the original warranty.
This is scary as the original parts lasted exactly one year and two months, so I anticipate that if the original parts for a close to $1000 washing machine do not last but one year and 2 months, the replacement parts will probably last a few days over the year and that $1000 for this machine is down the drain. Moral of story - DO NOT BUY BOSCH products. Will keep you informed of progress.
ALASKA -- Late in the April of 2007 we decided to purchase BOSCH refrigerator on line from Digital Craze/Uncles electronics located in New Jersey. The day after placing an order I received a call that this model in on back order and it will take 2-4 weeks to have it deliver.
May 21, the Yellow Transportation Company called me about scheduling delivery and after short discussion we agreed to be at 5PM. The driver was late and around 6:15PM finally arrived in large truck. Our Townhouse is located in the middle of the complex and he stated that his company only does "curb side delivery" which I was not informed about before. The refrigerator was completely covered by carton and although I had no chance to check the condition without unloading, unwrapping and connecting to the outlet located 300 feet from the curb, I was asked to sign as "delivered in good condition".
It took us a couple of days to have someone help my husband move the 350LBS refrigerator to the kitchen and connect into the outlet. Since we have not moved into the place yet, there were no items to be placed in the fridge.
The next day I brought the grocery and upon opening the refrigerator noticed that the light go on but the temperature is way too warm. Called BOSCH 800 number trying to get directions from the customer service on the connecting the refrigerator hoping that simple programming may be the issue. Unfortunately that was not the case and customer services suggested the technician to come over. The next available appointment was on June 12th, in 2 weeks. Upon begging she was able to find the appointment early and technician came on June 1st. His diagnosis were "this is not working and needs to be replaced since is non-reparable" He ask me to fax the invoice to Bosch office and call few days to discuss delivery of new fridge.
June 11th after making about 25 calls to the BOSCH 800 customer line and living messages in my case, I learned that technician did not make an report in my case yet. BOSCH customer service will only give me a name, no extension, no case number and each time I have talked to the different person explaining the situation from the very beginning. They referred to Tracy, Steve and Kerry as their supervisors giving them the information but were not allowed to connect me to any of them.
Also during that time I contacted Digital Craze/ Uncles stereo and talked to Eddie who claimed to help me dealing with Bosch. He was kind, but never called back so I kept on claim him back.
June 11th; after spending over 3 hours again on trying to get through anybody at Bosch customer service I learned that decision was made and since the damage was probably done during transport I have to get replacement from the seller. I was more than upset at that time so called immediately the seller and was advices that they need statement in writing from BOSCH that the refrigerator is un-reparable so they can go after the shipping company.
June 12th; another hour on the phone and I received and answer" we will not do anything in writing; we are telling you that and that should do it". Called the seller again and restated the BOSCH' statement. Eddie, kind again asks me to call in an hour to get answer to my problem. Called again and again, each time assured things are being worked out.
June 13th, called Eddie again and learned from him that he is still working on my case. I was very polite to explain that I need the refrigerator, that is already few weeks and that this needs to be solved immediately.
That was my last call to Digital Craze. Finally my patience was out and I call credit card company to dispute my charge due to purchase of merchandise that arrived not in working condition.
Today, June 15th, I don't have a refrigerator yet, for which I paid $2,164, waiting for the refund from the credit company so I can go in the store and buy whatever they have in stock in that size.
I am absolutely amazed how little BOSCH cares about his customers! The customer service as rude and un-professional; they lie, use promises and deception to get the customer of the phone. They hold you on line and disconnect after 30 minutes or longer hoping that you will not have enough patience to call back. I will definitely never, ever buy anything which has BOSCH name.
The seller, Digital Craze/Uncles Stereo in another story for me to write...
BRADENTON, FLORIDA -- After having my Bosch washer and dryer installed due to moving to a condo and had limited space I was shocked at the experience of modern day drying. I have had the serviceman come out and look at it and he told me if I wanted dry clothes, I should have bought another brand. I paid $1200.00 for this dryer. Before purchase everyone told me what a great brand Bosch was.
Well, if you want dry clothes you are not going to get it at Bosch. All items come out damp and some wet, no matter how many cycles or what settings you use. I now have to hang clothes eg bed linens, tee shirts, towels all over my living room and dining room to dry; I think it is 1913 not 2013. I certainly was not informed of this before my purchase.
Do not buy Bosch if you expect to have dry clothes using this dryer; because you won't. I have never paid so much for so little service ever in my life. The serviceman answer to my complaint was, they are designed that way. Never again. I am a very unhappy Bosch consumer.

D-backs rookie to face Haren in first MLB start
Bolsinger made debut with three innings of relief Monday
LOS ANGELES -- There's a bit of an experience gap between the two starting pitchers in Saturday's D-backs-Dodgers game.
On the one hand, you have the Dodgers' Dan Haren, a veteran of 12 big league seasons, who will be making the 320th start of his career.
And then you have the D-backs' Mike Bolsinger, who will make his first big league start under the bright lights of Dodger Stadium.
Bolsinger, a 15th-round selection in the 2010 First-Year Player Draft, made his debut last Monday with a three-inning relief stint against the Mets. He is taking the place of Trevor Cahill in the rotation.
The relief outing should help Bolsinger when he takes the mound Saturday, because he now knows that there is definitely a different pace to the game than there was with Triple-A Reno.
"I think it's big because you know what to expect," Bolsinger said. "You know the tempo of the game. It just seems the game gets faster here. There's more going on. You've got to be aware of it and make sure you slow it down."
This will be Haren's second straight start against the D-backs, and he got the win in the last one, but the D-backs made him earn it during 5 2/3 difficult innings.
"I could tell from the start it was going to be a battle," Haren said after the game. "I was able to get through it. I don't know how. I face them again [Saturday] and I have to have better stuff than this."
Bolsinger's biggest competition could come from the moment itself. When he got to historic Dodger Stadium on Monday and was running in the outfield, he stopped and looked around at the empty ballpark.
"I thought, 'This can't be real,'" he said.
D-backs: Familiar surroundings for Trumbo
Outfielder Mark Trumbo was born in Anaheim, Calif., and played for the Angels through the first four years of his career, so this trip is a homecoming for him.
Trumbo, who was out of the starting lineup Friday for the first time this season to make room for Cody Ross, is expected to be back Saturday.
Trumbo is among the Major League leaders in home runs with six and RBIs with 18.
Dodgers: Down to one lefty in 'pen
J.P. Howell, the lone left-hander in the bullpen, is not your typical lefty specialist.
"We feel like he can get left-handers and right-handers out," manager Don Mattingly said.
It also helps that Mattingly feels comfortable using right-handers Chris Withrow and Jamey Wright against left-handed batters.
Worth noting
• Aaron Hill is 8-for-25 (.320) in his career against Haren with two doubles, two triples and a home run.
• Chris Owings is 4-for-6 in his career against Haren.
• Dodgers lefty Hyun-Jin Ryu pledged a $100,000 donation via his foundation to a help those affected by the SEWOL ferry disaster in his native South Korea.
• Mattingly continues to dispel any notion he's concerned about closer Kenley Jansen (5.00 ERA, .325 opponents average, entering Friday).
"I have no real concerns, I'm not thinking about doing anything any different," Mattingly said. "He hit 100 [mph] the other day. It's going forwards, not backwards. The ball is coming out of his hand fine."

For lovers of Design & Lifestyle
To gaze at Switzerland's highest mountain, the 4634 meter high Dufourspitze (Dufour Peak) while one is surrounded by the Alps' third longest glacier, Gorner Glacier and by nearly all the Swiss four-thousand-meter peaks: Gornergrat offers all this.
The popular mountain with stunning panoramic views can be accessed via the highest open-air rack railroad in Europe. The Gornergrat railway takes visitors across impressive bridges, through galleries and tunnels, idyllic forests, past ravines and mountain lakes to the peak, which is the starting point for numerous hikes and bike tours. In the winter visitors are lured to the region by the toboggan run from Rotenboden to Riffelberg, by ski runs and moguls, a ski park for children and winter hiking trails.

If you follow a vegetarian diet, you likely already know the importance of choosing foods that'll give you the nutrients you need. This is especially important during breast-feeding.
Choose foods rich in iron, protein and calcium During breast-feeding, make an extra effort to ensure that your diet includes plenty of these nutrients.
Good sources of iron include dried beans and peas, lentils, enriched cereals, whole-grain products, dark leafy green vegetables, and dried fruit. To help your body absorb iron, eat iron-rich foods in combination with foods high in vitamin C, such as strawberries, citrus fruits, sweet bell peppers or tomatoes.
For protein, consider eggs and dairy products or plant sources, such as soy products and meat substitutes, legumes, lentils, nuts, seeds, and whole grains.
Good sources of calcium include dairy products and dark green vegetables. Other options include calcium-enriched and -fortified products, such as juices, cereals, soy milk, soy yogurt and tofu.
Consider supplements Your health care provider will likely recommend that you take a daily vitamin B-12 supplement and, in some cases, a vitamin D supplement.
Vitamin B-12 is found almost exclusively in animal products, so it can be difficult to get enough in some vegetarian diets. Vitamin B-12 is essential for your baby's brain development.
If you don't eat enough vitamin D-fortified foods — such as cow's milk and some cereals — and you have limited sun exposure, you might need vitamin D supplements. Your baby needs vitamin D to absorb calcium and phosphorus. Too little vitamin D can cause rickets, a softening and weakening of bones.
Be sure to tell your doctor and your baby's doctor if you're also giving your baby a vitamin D supplement.
Certain foods and drinks deserve caution while you're breast-feeding. For example:
Alcohol There's no level of alcohol in breast milk that's considered safe for a baby.
If you choose to drink alcohol, avoid breast-feeding until the alcohol has completely cleared your breast milk. This typically takes two to three hours for 12 ounces (340 grams) of 5 percent beer, 5 ounces (142 grams) of 11 percent wine or 1.5 ounces (43 grams) of 40 percent liquor, depending on your body weight.
If you skip a feeding, pumping and dumping breast milk can help you maintain your milk supply. However, pumping and dumping doesn't speed the elimination of alcohol from your body.
Caffeine Avoid drinking more than 2 to 3 cups (16 to 24 ounces) of caffeinated drinks a day. Remember, caffeine in your breast milk might agitate your baby or interfere with your baby's sleep.
Fish Seafood can be a great source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Most seafood contains mercury, however. Exposure to excessive amounts of mercury through breast milk can pose a risk to a baby's developing nervous system.
To limit your baby's exposure to mercury while breast-feeding, choose seafood that's low in mercury, such as shrimp, salmon, canned light tuna and catfish. Avoid seafood that's high in mercury, including shark, swordfish, king mackerel and tilefish.
If you eat fish from local waters, pay attention to local fish advisories. If advice isn't available, limit fish from local waters to 6 ounces (170 grams) a week and don't eat other fish that week.
Certain foods or drinks in your diet could cause your baby to become irritable or have an allergic reaction.
If your baby becomes fussy or develops a rash, diarrhea or congestion soon after nursing, consult your baby's doctor. These signs could indicate a food allergy.
If you suspect that something in your diet might be making your baby a little fussier than usual, avoid the food or drink for up to a week to see if it makes a difference in your baby's behavior. Consider eliminating dairy products or other allergenic foods or ingredients, such as:
Some breast-feeding women say that avoiding spicy or gassy foods, such as onions or cabbage, can help — but this hasn't been proved through research. Also, you might try eliminating or reducing the amount of caffeine in your diet.
For help determining links between your diet and your baby's behavior, you might keep a food diary. List everything you eat and drink, along with notes about how your baby seems to react — if at all.
If removing a certain food or drink from your diet has no impact on your baby's fussiness, add it back to your diet and consider other possible culprits instead. If you're concerned about your baby's behavior, consult your baby's doctor.
Remember, there's no need to go on a special diet while you're breast-feeding. Simply focus on making healthy choices — and you and your baby will reap the rewards.

Jabra VOX Corded Stereo Wired Headsets - Retail Packaging - Black
"The Jabra Vox is Jabra's current flagship IEM. It has impressed me in many ways, but has its shortcomings. But for being only $100 MSRP, these are a definite competitor on the current market. [[SPOILER]] Package - The Vox comes in a hard-plastic container with a yellow silicone stripe down the middle, with the word, 'Vox' written on it. It feels well made, and is aesthetically pleasing to my..." --pro1137
Noble 3
"Firstly, I'll plagiarize an adage I see around this site often: "I am no audiophile," but I love critically listening to music and searching for the most enjoyable sound possible within my budget. After careful review of the competition in IEM's, I ordered these units. During their transit I received the most helpful reviews possible from member ih8tickets, who owns the Noble 3c. I echo many of..." --MrNick
Noble 5
The Noble 5 was inspired largely by the demand for a universal version of the Noble 8C (eight-driver acrylic CIEM). With deep, thick layered, bass and highs that never fatigue the ear, the Noble 5 strikes a balance between fun and articulate.
Noble 6
" (copied and pasted from the thread) Intro Noble Audio is the new brain child of John Molton, who is known around these parts as the Wizard. Formerly of Heir Audio, his CIEM designs are usually his calling card. However, his initial universal-fit 4.Ai and 3.Ai, and 5 designs saw a..." --eke2k6

Caravan overhaul: Rob Millington's retro take on trailer design
Available in all colors - in the wilds with the sleeping area raised
Article Summary
If the mere mention of the word caravan gives you terrifying visions of formica fold-out tables, thermos flasks full of weak tea or being forced to play bridge with a bunch of sensible beige trouser-wearing accountants then fear not, there are those who are trying to leave such stale, cliched images behind and inject some modern thinking into the world of mobile holidaying. One person trying to bring some much needed cool to the world of the caravan is Rob Millington, who sought to create "something that had quality to rival that of a luxury yacht" with this gorgeous concept design.

Rockies, Giants set to renew rivalry by the Bay
The surprising Rockies have given the defending National League West champion Giants a challenge in the standings in the early going. Beginning on Monday, the two division rivals will go head-to-head for the first time this year.
The Rockies have jumped out to a 5-1 record to start the year, after taking two of three from the Brewers in their opening series, and sweeping the Padres in Denver this weekend.
The Giants, meanwhile, were hammered by the Cardinals on Sunday afternoon and dropped their weekend series to St. Louis. They took two out of three against the Dodgers to start the season, but still find themselves looking up at the Rockies in the standings.
Colorado will be challenged when facing Giants lefty Madison Bumgarner, who tossed eight superb innings against the Dodgers in his season debut. He scattered just two hits, did not walk a batter and struck out six in one of the best starts of his young career.
Seventy-six of Bumgarner's 101 pitches were strikes, and he threw first-pitch strikes to the first 17 batters he faced, and 22 of 26 overall. He didn't reach a three-ball count until the 19th hitter he faced.
"That's the best I've felt in a long time," Bumgarner said. "If it's close like that, there's no room for error. I felt like I was careful, and kept the ball out of the middle as much as I could."
Rockies lefty Jorge De La Rosa, meanwhile, hopes to improve after a so-so first outing. He gave up four earned runs and five hits in 4 1/3 innings, striking out three and walking three.
Manager Walt Weiss gave him the hook after just 4 1/3 innings to avoid the Brewers' Ryan Braun, who had homered earlier in the game.
"It surprised me a little bit, because I just had 77 pitches, but they took me out," De La Rosa said. "It's good because we won."
Giants: Struggling with men on base
• The Giants have combined to hit just .172 (5-for-29) with runners in scoring position during their first six games.
• The Giants are in the midst of playing eight day games in 10 contests. They'll play a matinee against the Rockies on Wednesday before four against the Cubs this week (Thursday-Sunday) in Chicago.
• Infielder Brandon Belt still does not have a hit this season. He's 0-for-13 in three games.
Rockies: Serious series starts
• This year marks the first time the Rockies have won each of their first two series of the season since 1995. That season, they won each of their first three. It is the club's only other 5-1 start in franchise history. They began that year 7-1.
• De La Rosa is 3-2 with a 2.58 ERA in seven career games at AT&T Park.
Worth noting
• The Giants won 14 of 18 meetings against the Rockies last season, outscoring Colorado, 125-75.
The 14 season wins (seven at home and seven on the road) are the most the Giants have ever had against the Rockies in a single season.

Comments about ASICS Nimbus Lo-Cut Running Socks:
Out of the bag, these socks seemed too thin to provide support. I was wrong - these socks provide a good amount of cushion at the toe and heel and snug enough around the arch to help support. The tab at the back prevents the sock from slipping.
Bought for my husband but they shrunk so they now are mine. I would recommend ordering a size up unless you rinse out your socks by hand which you could easily do with these socks.

Fact of the day
Information is the most powerful weapon.
Fact N°
Modern football hooliganism dates back to 1885 England.
The event widely regarded as the first modern incident of football hooliganism occurred in 1885 following a friendly match between Preston North End and Aston Villa. Preston won easily, 5-0, a victory that resulted in an eruption of violence. Players from both teams were under siege from fans (the press called them "howling roughs") throwing rocks and sticks, then storming the field and punching, kicking and spitting on the players.
Fact N°
Seawater features enough uranium to supply nuclear reactors for the next 60,000 years.
At the current rate of consumption, nuclear reactors will have enough uranium for the next 200 years. However, if it ever becomes economically feasible (uranium doesn't currently demand a high enough price), an enormous amount of usable uranium can be extracted from seawater -- as much as 4.5 billion metric tons, enough to supply those reactors for another 60,000 years.
Fact N°
For their 2009 Car Issue, Consumer Reports anonymously spent $2.7 million on test vehicles.
Consumer Reports anonymously buys the vehicles they test for the influential annual issue, right off the dealer's lot, like anyone else. Then they put the cars through over 50 separate tests over several months and thousands of miles of driving. When finished with the testing, the cars are either sold to the staff of Consumers Union (the organization that publishers the magazine) or used as trade-ins on models for the following year's issue.
Fact N°
In general, Toyotas age better than any other vehicle make.
Toyota vehicles, including the Lexus and Scion lines, tend to be the most reliable used cars, according to the March 2009 issue of Consumer Reports. Of the Big Three automakers in Detroit, Ford vehicles have proved to be more consistently reliable than those of either Chrysler or GM. Surprisingly, the makes that are the least reliable are older Volkswagens and Audis.
Fact N°
In 1922, the British Empire occupied one-quarter of the earth's land area.
More accurately, it occupied 24.6% of the planet's land area, making it the largest empire in world history and one of the few in history to control land on every continent.
In 1922, it was ruled over by King George V, a rather dull historical figure compared to the rulers of empires lower on the list, such as Kublai Khan, Nicholas I, and Alexander the Great.
Fact N°
Ferruccio Lamborghini founded his car company after being insulted by Enzo Ferrari.
In the 1950s and early 1960s, Ferruccio Lamborghini owned a tractor factory. He was a sports car enthusiast who owned a number of high-performance cars, including a couple Ferrari vehicles with which he had frequent clutch problems. He went to see founder Enzo Ferrari about them, who leveled an insult at Lamborghini by saying a guy who built tractors knew nothing about sports cars. Irate, Lamborghini fixed the clutch issues himself and decided he could build a better vehicle than Ferrari, so he hired away some of their designers and in 1963 successfully premiered the Lamborghini 350GT -- and an Italian supercar maker was born.
Fact N°
Pele earned $120,000 at the 1970 World Cup Final by pausing to tie his shoe.
Right before the opening whistle of the Final Match between Brazil and Italy, Pele requested a moment from the referee to tie his shoe. At that moment, millions of fans watching on TV got a good look at Pele's shoes -- which was the whole point of the gesture. Puma paid Pele $120,000 for the gesture, which proved wildly successful for Puma. Yet it was just one example of the fierce competition between Puma and Adidas -- companies run by rival German brothers whose mutual hatred helped fuel the sporting goods industry in the '60s and '70s.

Then it started squealing like a girl, no matter if I play certain games (Lugaru or X3 squeal like hell, Quake Wars, Doom 3, Americas Army and Prey run without squealing, creating high-poly models in Blender 3D makes the card squeal like hell...)
Seriously, it's unbearable. I'd buy a new card, but I'm afraid, that it'd just have the same fault.
And I heard about the crappy ATI drivers at every corner, so I can't buy one of theirs either... So I'll have to wait till NVIDIA uses better hardware or until ATI has better Linux drivers.
