March Madness Sweet 16: Your Email Testing Brackets
by Kara Trivunovic on Mar 28, 12:51 PM
March Madness is in full swing for all those college basketball fans out there. I know this because I think my husband may be the biggest Indiana Hoosiers fan I have ever known (and according to him, they are going to slaughter Syracuse). Of course I've spent many a night with ESPN and their bracketology assessments running in the background -- and have heard more Charles Barkley-isms than a girl can handle. So what do I do to cope? I turn it into email marketing fodder. So friends, welcome to Email Testing Brackets!

The Fundamental Imperatives Of Email Marketing Rules
by Chad White on Mar 26, 7:45 AM
Back in November of 2010, I wrote an Email Insider column titled "'Best Practices' Are Dead," in which I argued that the term "best practices" has been much abused and was too broad to cover what I called the never-break "ethical imperatives" and the okay-but-unwise-to-break "recommended practices." I didn't know it at the time, but that column would be the genesis of my new book, "Email Marketing Rules: How to Wear a White Hat, Shoot Straight, and Win Hearts," which discusses 108 email marketing best practices.

Shifts Of Change: The New Email Paradigm
by Loren McDonald on Mar 21, 11:05 AM
Having observed the email marketing industry the last 15 years, I've come to the conclusion that our beloved channel is entering its next phase: adulthood. Although I foresee no really revolutionary changes that would immediately disrupt email marketing, several shifts are happening now that require your attention and action. These shifts are helping to create a new email-marketing paradigm with six essential buckets of ideas:

Video In Email, Take Three
by Jordan Cohen on Mar 20, 1:49 PM
If you ask the email marketing industry's founding fathers about video in email, they'll hark back to a time in the late '90s when sending email with embedded video was no problem. There may not have been too many marketers producing video at the time, but if they did, and wanted to deliver it via email, they had nothing to worry about. By the early 2000s, everything had changed. The rapid rise of email-borne security threats like spam, phishing, and malicious code got ISPs nervous about allowing images to be displayed in email -- let alone more complex content like ...

Taking The Pain Out Of Creating Creative Briefs
by Wacarra Yeomans on Mar 19, 11:49 AM
When working with a creative team to get your marketing messages across, it's essential to get your brief spot-on. And yet this often doesn't happen. Creative teams find themselves struggling to interpret a brand's vision, and marketing decision-makers find themselves unsatisfied with the creative execution. Based on my experience, it's crucial to spend the time to take a few steps back and look at the bigger picture before diving into creative brief-making.

Innovation: Hardest Thing To Get Right
by David Baker on Mar 18, 9:52 AM
Innovation is not just new technology or new ways to do things. True innovation must be marketed, or adoption will lag and scale in your operation will never have a chance.

Could Your Email Program Benefit From A Diet?
by Kara Trivunovic on Mar 14, 10:45 PM
So it may be a little clichd, but with March and shorts weather finally upon us, it is definitely time to hit the gym and a diet (for me, at least, it's my annual routine). This led me to spend some time last night re-familiarizing myself with the Weight Watchers PointsPlus system. I figured that by counting points for every ounce of ice cream (uhhhh, fruits and veggies) I put in my mouth, this act should somehow curb my bad behavior. If counting points works for modifying bad eating behavior, what could it do for email? In order to find ...

Marketing In The Age Of The Inbox Within The Inbox
by George Bilbrey on Mar 13, 9:22 AM
Message prioritization and foldering is becoming the typical email experience, as big mailbox providers and independent developers introduce ways to organize and unclutter mailboxes. Many take different approaches to reach a similar solution: essentially an inbox within the inbox. (The primary example of this is Gmail's Priority Inbox.) Does that mean commercial senders who've worked to maintain deliverability can now find their messages shut out of subscribers' email sanctum sanctorum? In some cases, yes, but smart marketers already have the knowledge they need to succeed in the automated inbox.

How To Find Good Email Marketing Help
by Liz Ryan on Mar 12, 12:11 PM
It's no secret among email marketers that good help is hard to find. My clients ask me to help them fill positions; my friends in the biz ask me for references; and on more than one occasion, I've received emails from strangers asking for introductions or suggestions. Recently, I received such an email from someone offering her services should my company need an extra freelance resource. I was able to refer her to another friend looking to hire; the fit was good, and everyone was happy. But those stories are few and far between. More often than not there are ...

Are You And Management Speaking The Same Language?
by Loren McDonald on Mar 8, 10:54 AM
Email marketers love to argue -- or rather, to discuss and share their opinions. From pre-checked boxes to the value of open rates, everyone has an opinion.Still, inside your organization, opinions and misunderstandings often contribute to projects being derailed, never getting off the ground, or being focused on the wrong result.

So far ahead, these bums is lagging
See me in that new thing, bums is gagging
from Nicki Minaj (Ft. Eminem) – Roman's Revenge Lyrics on Genius
Nicki's use of the word "bums" here is not accidental. It is aimed at rapper Keys. See their history of fighting here. In her verse on DJ Khaled's "All I Do Is Win (Remix)", Minaj spits lines that were generally thought to be aimed at Keys:
I ain't mad, ma — see you on your bummy swag
I'm in that money-green Jag, lotta money bags…
You could talk slick all the way down to the welfare
Ask the IRS, bitch, I'm paying for your health care

CFN 2012 Rankings
Dec. 2, Week 14
2012 BCS Rankings
- 2012 AP Rankings
2012 Coaches' Poll
Scoreboard & Game Recaps
- CFN Week 14 Rankings
No. 26 to 124
1. Notre Dame 12-0
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why Notre Dame Should Be No. 1: The Irish are the last of the unbeaten eligible contenders, navigating a slate of games that appeared to be daunting when the season began. Spearheaded by one of the nation's stingiest defenses, Notre Dame defeated 10 teams that were bowl-eligible, including Michigan, Pac-12 champ Stanford, 10-2 Oklahoma in Norman and USC is the Coliseum.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: The doubts and skepticism regarding ND come from two angles: The offense has been held to no more than 22 points in seven of 12 games. And close calls with mediocre opponents, such as Purdue, BYU and Pittsburgh, cast the Irish as an overrated team that was ripe to be picked off.
2. Alabama 12-1
Last Week: W, Georgia 32-28
Why the Ranking Should Be Higher: After not even appearing in the game a year ago, the Crimson Tide is the king of the SEC, the premier conference in college football. 'Bama went toe-to-toe with Georgia right down to the final seconds, holding on in arguably the most compelling and physical game of the year. Its only loss was to a 10-win Texas A&M team that only lost to LSU and Florida.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: The Tide showed some holes on defense in the Georgia Dome that Notre Dame will look to expose on Jan. 7. 'Bama's tackling was poor at times, and that final, Aaron Murray-led drive really never should have happened. This is a very good football team, but it would lose by 10 points to the 2011 national champions.
3. Georgia 11-2
Last Week: L, Alabama 32-28
Why the Ranking Should Be Higher: The Bulldogs had a chance to unseat the defending national champs, right down to the waning seconds of the SEC Championship Game. It fell short, but showed just how close it is to being the top team in America. The two teams Georgia has lost to this season, Alabama and South Carolina, are 22-3 entering the postseason.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Up 21-10 midway through the third quarter, Georgia collapsed, especially on defense. The Dawgs got trucked on the ground, blown off the line of scrimmage by the Alabama front wall. Their other loss, to South Carolina, was an embarrassing 35-7 affair. Who, other than Florida, has Georgia beaten in 2012? Vandy? Ole Miss?
4. Oregon 11-1
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why the Ranking Should Be Higher: The Ducks were unbeaten in regulation this season, losing only to Pac-12 champion Stanford in overtime on Nov. 17. Oregon is just one of two teams in the FBS averaging more than 50 points a game, allowing it to pummel Arizona, USC and Oregon State.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: The lineup of victims this season won't cause whiplash. Sure, doubling up the nine-win Beavers in Corvallis stood out, but where are the Ducks' other red-letter moments? Arizona and USC are just 7-5, and there were no powerhouse opponents on the non-conference slate.
5. Florida 11-1
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: There isn't a team in America with a quartet of better than the Gators, who bested four 10-win heavyweights, Texas A&M, LSU, South Carolina and Florida State. The defense has been a rock from start to finish, giving up just five touchdown passes in a dozen games.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: The Gators are Notre Dame with a loss. The offense is highly unreliable, averaging only 338 yards per game, and the team has a penchant for playing to the level of the competition. During a three-game swing in November, Florida narrowly escaped 5-7 Missouri, needed a blocked punt in the final seconds to beat Louisiana-Lafayette and managed just one offensive touchdown against Jacksonville State.
6. Ohio State 12-0
Last Week: Regular Has Ended
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Buckeyes are one of just two FBS teams that have not been beaten in 2012. The other is playing in the BCS National Championship Game. The team that just took part in the Big Ten Championship Game, 10-win Nebraska, lost to Ohio State on Oct. 6, 63-38.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Sweeping through a Big Ten schedule isn't what it used to be. Unlike other schools that are hovering around the top 5, Ohio State doesn't own a victory over a team that was ever threatening for national championship contention. Heck, the Buckeyes never had to face a top 10 team this fall, and were nearly tagged by 3-9 Cal, 4-8 Indiana and 6-6 Purdue.
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Tigers went through the SEC gauntlet, and wound up only losing to one-loss Florida and SEC champ Alabama by 12 points combined. They also defeated a couple of talented 10-win teams, South Carolina and Texas A&M, en route to their own 10-win campaign.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: The D may be top 10 timber, but the offense is not. In fact, LSU ranks 90th in the country in passing. The Tigers lacked consistency throughout the year, barely getting by 3-9 Auburn, 12-10, and laboring to put away 6-6 Ole Miss and 4-8 Arkansas in the final two weekends of the regular season.
8. Texas A&M 10-2
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: Few teams in America are playing better than the Aggies as the regular season comes to an end. They've won five straight by an average of 24 points, including the epic upset of SEC champion Alabama on Nov. 10. Not only has the Johnny Manziel-led offense reached 58 points five times, but the D played much better in the second half of the year.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Where was the incendiary offense in critical games with Florida and LSU, both losses? No one ought to forget that this is the same Aggies team, which got dragged into a 59-57 shootout with a Louisiana Tech host that has since fallen to Utah State and San Jose State. A&M also played a pair of FCS teams in non-conference, South Carolina State and Sam Houston State.
9. South Carolina 10-2
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Gamecocks showed their mettle and toughness two weeks ago, going to Death Valley to stop Clemson's seven-game winning streak with a backup quarterback under center. They also routed SEC runner-up Georgia on Oct. 6, 35-7, and only lost to a pair of 10-win SEC powers, LSU and Florida, on the road.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: South Carolina owns arguably the ugliest loss among the 10-2 programs, falling to the Gators, 44-11, on a day it turned the ball over four times. Heck, Florida didn't put up as many as 44 points on anyone else all season. The 'Cocks had problems with the ball throughout the fall, saddled by an O-line that ranked last in the SEC in sacks allowed.
10. Stanford 11-2
Last Week: W, UCLA 27-24
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: It was a whole lot tougher than last week's meeting with the Bruins, but the Cardinal survived to earn its first Rose Bowl berth since 1999. Stanford has won seven straight since falling in overtime to top-ranked Notre Dame in South Bend on Oct. 13. Over the last four memorable weeks, it has run the Pac-12 gauntlet, beating Oregon State, Oregon and UCLA … twice in six days.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: It was a long time ago, yes, but Stanford continues to be haunted by its first loss of the season, to unranked Washington. The Huskies are just 7-5, having inexcusably lost to lowly Washington State in the Apple Cup two weeks ago.
11. Kansas State 11-1
Last Week: W, Texas 42-24
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Wildcats came out of their bye week, and off their only loss, to jet past Texas and capture the Big 12 championship. The Sept. 22 upset of Oklahoma in Norman kept getting better and better as the Sooners rolled to 10-2, and the loss to Baylor not quite as unseemly now that the Bears are bowl-eligible.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: While not quite as bad as it looked two weeks ago, you can't lose to then-sub. 500 Baylor, 52-24, and expect to be in the top 10. The Cats struggled with the speed of the Bears, and would also bow to the physicality of Notre Dame and some of the SEC's best teams.
12. Oklahoma10-2
Last Week: W, TCU 24-17
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: With no margin left after losing to Notre Dame on Oct. 27, the Sooners won their final five games to never stray from BCS bowl contention. Back in the familiar position of being a 10-win team, Oklahoma won a share of the Big 12 title, while only losing to the Irish and Kansas State, who are 23-1 combined.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: While the Oklahoma defense recovered in Waco against the freshman-led TCU attack, this is still a defense that needs a lot of work in pre-bowl preparations. In the three games leading up to this weekend, it gave up 131 points, while missing a ton of tackles and assignments.
13. Florida State 11-2
Last Week: W, Georgia Tech 21-15
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: For the first time since 2005, Florida State is one again looking down on the rest of the Atlantic Coast Conference. The Seminoles defeated a very good Clemson team back in September, and was going stride-for-stride with No. 5 Florida two weeks ago before running out of gas in the final quarter.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Winning the ACC was a must for the 'Noles in 2012, but it won't earn them any additional national respect. The Clemson win was a very long time ago, and since then, Florida State's best wins came over a spate of 7-5 and 6-6 teams. It also fell to NC State, a team that wound up canning its coach, Tom O'Brien.
14. Clemson 10-2
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: Clemson's only losses of the year came at the hands of fellow 10-win teams, South Carolina and ACC champion Florida State. The offense ranks among the most potent in America, leading the conference with 518 yards and 42 points per game.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: The Tigers got taken down a peg in their own building, 27-17, by the depleted Gamecocks in the regular season finale. They had two marquee opportunities to make statements in 2012, and fell short in both cases. Clemson got the better of just five bowl-eligible teams, the best being 7-5 NC State.
Last Week: L, Stanford 27-24
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Bruins gave Stanford all it could handle on Friday night before falling when Ka'Imi Fairbairn's field goal attempt stayed left in the waning seconds. UCLA have manufactured a terrific season under rookie head coach Jim Mora, beating Big Ten champion Nebraska, Arizona in a rout and USC to cop the Pac-12 South.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Losing twice to the Cardinal in six days is nothing to be ashamed about, but it does prove that there's a hard cap on how high the Bruins can ascend in the rankings. There's also the business of Oct. 6, the day UCLA got trounced, 43-17, by a Cal team that wound up finishing the season 3-9 and with a fired head coach.
16. Wisconsin 8-5
Last Week: W, Nebraska 70-31
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Badgers dismissed the notion that its Big Ten Championship Game appearance would be greeted by an asterisk by bombarding the Huskers with 539 rushing yards. Yup, the same Huskers team that arrived in Indianapolis on a six-game winning streak. Of Wisconsin's five losses, four were by three points, and three occurred in overtime.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: It took a very long time, three months, before Wisconsin played like a team that ought to be ranked. The Badgers were mediocre, at best, throughout the season, struggling in the opener with Northern Iowa, and losing at home to 6-6 Michigan State on Oct. 27.
17. Nebraska 10-3
Last Week: L, Wisconsin 70-31
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Huskers' three losses came versus two teams that played in league championship games over the weekend, and ineligible Ohio State, which went 12-0. They bagged a bunch of quality wins along the way, including Wisconsin, Northwestern, Michigan and Penn State.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: There are losses, and then there are the kinds of losses that expose a team as eminently inconsistent and overrated. Nebraska owns two such defeats in 2012. Not only were the Huskers undressed by the Badgers for nine offensive touchdowns on Saturday night, but also gave up 63 points to the Buckeyes back on Oct. 6.
18. Michigan 8-4
Last Game: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Wolverines didn't lose to a bad opponent all year, falling to SEC champion Alabama, Big Ten winner Nebraska and the two unbeatens, Notre Dame and Ohio State. After a slow start in Arlington, Tex., the defense found its groove by allowing an average of just 18 points over the final 11 games.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Moral victories can only get a team so far in the rankings. Michigan was still 0-4 versus the best teams on its schedule. Oh, and the Wolverines defeated exactly one opponent currently over .500, Northwestern, in a game that required overtime and a 53-yard desperation heave at the end of regulation.
19. Northwestern 9-3
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Wildcats kept hopes for a 10-win season alive by soundly beating rival Illinois, 50-14, two weeks ago. Though long forgotten, September wins over Syracuse and Vanderbilt increased in value as the Orange and the Commodores finished the year on a tear.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Since Sept. 15, the Wildcats have not defeated a team that currently has a winning record. They missed Ohio State and Wisconsin on the schedule, and were unable to close the deal in competitive games with Penn State, Nebraska and Michigan. Northwestern led all three games in the fourth quarter, yet still wound up losing.
20. Oregon State 9-3
Last Week: W, Nicholls State 77-3
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Beavers have knocked off a pair of teams that'll participated in conference championship games over the weekend, Big Ten champion Wisconsin and UCLA of the Pac-12. Their three losses were against teams that'll be bowling this winter, at Washington by three points, at Stanford by four points and two weeks ago versus one-loss Oregon.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Oregon State has cooled down considerably after a torrid start, losing half of its final six games. While the meetings with the Huskies and the Cardinal were certainly competitive, the 48-24 loss at home to the Ducks should stunt its upward mobility. The Beavers' vaunted run D got exposed by Kenjon Barner, De'Anthony Thomas and the rest of Oregon's rushing attack.
21. Penn State 8-4
Last Week: Season Has Ended
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Nittany Lions' improbable season ended with eight wins over the final 10 games and a 6-2 mark in Big Ten play. The high points came in a fourth-quarter rally to defeat 9-3 Northwestern and a season-ending overtime victory against Wisconsin, the Leaders Division rep and 70-31 winner in Saturday's league title game.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Losses to Ohio and Virginia still count, even if they occurred in the first two weeks of the season. There's the win over the Wildcats … and not a whole lot else that belongs on the refrigerator. The Badgers would have finished the division in third place had Penn State and Ohio State been eligible to wear the crown.
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: Troy picked up quality wins over 7-5 Syracuse, Washington and Arizona State, a trio that finished the year on a high note, and with bowl bids. The Trojans didn't lose to a bad team all year, falling to five opponents that were ranked at one time or another, Pac-12 champ Stanford, Arizona, Oregon, UCLA and unbeaten Notre Dame.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Arguably this year's biggest disappointment, USC went from No. 1 when the season started to the fringe of the Top 25. It finished the regular season 1-4, hampered by poor play from the defense, questionable coaching and a shoulder injury to QB Matt Barkley.
Last Week: L, Oklahoma 24-17
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Horned Frogs hung with 10-2 Oklahoma all afternoon, getting to the doorstep of overtime before failing to punch it in. Over the last month, TCU earned its Big 12 stripes, beating West Virginia and Texas on the road, and giving the Sooners and K-State all they could handle.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: The Frogs' best win out of conference came over 4-8 Virginia. After losing to the Sooners, TCU finished the regular season below .500 in Big 12 play, having lost to mediocre, unranked opponents from Iowa State and Texas Tech … at Amon G. Carter Stadium.
24. Northern Illinois 12-1
Last Week: W, Kent State 44-37
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: In a battle of ranked teams, with an eye toward an at-large BCS bowl bid, the Huskies won for the twelfth straight time to nab a second consecutive MAC championship. Northern Illinois' only loss of the season came to the Big Ten's Iowa by a single point, 18-17.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Yeah, the Hawkeyes play in the Big Ten, but they were also just 4-8 on the season. The Huskies also had a narrow, one-point escape of 2-9 Army, and was nearly tagged by 1-11 Kansas a week later before surviving, 30-23. Northern Illinois hasn't had enough tests to be considered a legitimate Top 25 team.
25. Vanderbilt 8-4
Last Week: Regular Season Over
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: The Commodores have moved up into the second tier of SEC programs this fall by closing out the regular season with six consecutive wins. They blew out rival Tennessee on Nov. 17, 41-18, and lost to four teams that each won nine games or more this year.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: It's been an impressive campaign for James Franklin's kids, but where's the statement win? Just one of Vanderbilt's victims is going bowling, Ole Miss, a 6-6 team that almost beat the Commodores three weeks ago.

Special Correspondent
Bangalore: Janata Dal (United) State president B. Somashekar on Saturday alleged that several Ministers and MLAs of the ruling coalition were active in the real-estate business and demanded an inquiry by a Supreme Court judge into land transactions in the State since 1991.
Mr. Somashekar told presspersons here that the inquiry should include a social audit to find out if development projects, for which large tracts of farmland were acquired, had helped the people and triggered development.
He also accused the Congress of having facilitated the use of farmland for real-estate purposes when it was in power.
He claimed that a large extent of land had been handed over to bogus information technology companies by the Congress in 2001. Subsequent governments had continued the practice.
He said the bogus companies, which got farmland at throwaway prices for industrial purposes, later sold it at exorbitant prices.
Citing an example, Mr. Somashekar said a company, Primal Projects, was allotted about 25 acres in 2004 for an IT park. While the market value of the land was around Rs. 80 lakh an acre at that time, farmers had been given Rs. 9.5 lakh an acre. The company was allocated 30 more acres subsequently. The Government had incurred a loss of about Rs. 10 crore in terms of various exemptions given to the company such as sales tax exemption. Similarly, farmers had incurred a loss of Rs. 56 crore when the market value of their land was considered.
Mr. Somashekar said it would have been possible to curb the real-estate lobby if the ceiling on landholding had not been removed by the Janata Dal government headed by H.D. Deve Gowda in 1995.
He demanded that the Karnataka Land Reforms Act be further amended to reintroduce the ceiling on maximum landholding by individuals, firms and trusts.

Wilmington is an old Colonial port city known for shipping, agricultural processing, and flowers. The historic town center and waterfront along the Cape Fear River is interesting and attractive. Due to its historic interest and its location on a peninsula formed by the Cape Fear River on the west and the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway on the east, housing costs and cost of living tend to be higher than other small North Carolina cities.
Employment growth is also very strong as more find the area. The area has a healthy mix of old and new economy employers, from International Paper and Louisiana Pacific to GE Nuclear Systems and Corning optical fiber, with a few pharmaceutical and biotech equipment firms in addition. There is a large regional hospital and medical complex. Wilmington is somewhat far from many big-city amenities and services, but the climate is pleasant and residential sections are attractive.
Wilmington is located along the southern Atlantic Coast of North Carolina. Because of the curvature of the coastline, the ocean lies about 5 miles east and about 20 miles south. The surrounding terrain is typical of coastal Carolina, with low-lying, gently rolling land with rivers, creeks, and lakes with considerable swamp and marshland adjoining them. Large wooded areas alternate with cultivated fields.
The maritime location makes the climate unusually mild for its latitude, with daily temperature variations less than many nearby areas. Summers are warm and humid, usually with cool afternoon breezes but without excessive heat. High temperatures of 90 degrees F are reached about 1 day in 3, but 100 degree temps are rare. Cold air from the north invades in winter and doesn't last, and the season is short and mild. On average, daytime temperatures stay below freezing only once a year. Rainfall is well distributed with most occurring during summer thunderstorms. The area is subject to coastal storms and hurricanes, with high winds, high tides, and heavy rain. Winter rain is more likely to be slow and steady, often lasting 2 to 3 days. Snow accumulation is rare.

I just took the bolt out of the top of the agitator which allowed me to pull the agitator straight up. Then I turned it over so the sleeve that the cogs go into could fall out. I took the old cogs out, put the new cogs in, held it upside down and lowered the agitator down onto as to not move the cogs. When it was all situated correctly I held it by the bolt as I turned it upright. Then I just lowered it back down in place inside the drum and tightened the bolt back down. Done. The washer works just like new.

Mindy McCready was very intoxicated, her brother said, before she slashed a wrist in a suicide attempt, according to a Nashville, Tenn. police report obtained by RADAR.
