A rare 1967 Ferrari was sold at auction for a record setting $27.5 million dollars by a local family.
The red, Ferrari 275 GTB, 4 NART Spyder was one of only ten ever built.
This particular car was owned by the late Eddie Smith, a former mayor of Lexington, North Carolina. The car was then passed down to his son, Eddie Smith Jr., of Grady White Boats.
The elder Smith bought the car for $14,500 brand new.
The car has been in the Smith family for 45 years and was stored in a specially built garage after the elder Smith passed away in 2007.
Reports say every penny of the $27.5 million dollars will be donated to charity.

The Power of Independent Thinking
John C. Goodman: What's the Alternative to Obamacare?
Recorded: Tuesday, July 1, 2014
Independent Institute Senior Fellow John C. Goodman, author of "Priceless: Curing the Healthcare Crisis" describes how the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, with its 27,000 pages of rules and regulations, has omitted some basic market-based concepts that would benefit all consumers. Goodman outlines the changes that would make such a healthcare system function, utilizing his extensive knowledge of the subject. Goodman is known as the "Father of Health Savings Accounts" whose suggestions for healthcare reform have been heard around the country. In this video, he highlights what is wrong with Obamacare, and offers his bold ideas on sensible healthcare reform.

John C. Goodman, author of Priceless: Curing the Healthcare Crisis, appeared on the Sean Hannity radio program on Thursday, October 31. Goodman discusses alternatives to Obamacare, as outlined in his book "Priceless." If patients control their healthcare, then providers can compete on quality and price, instead of government bureaucracies dictating healthcare choices to consumers. Jay Sekulow of the American Center for Law and Justice also joined the discussion.

Admins (or sysops) are Uncyclopedians with the power to delete pages, ban users, and administer other mayhem. The following Admins tend to respond when asked to help. (The rest of them are either dead, missing in action, or undergoing a sex change operation, which for many of them is their second or third.)
|Usual time zone
|Sysop, Bureaucrat, Deity
|Sysop, Bureaucrat, token Jew
|Sysop, Weathered, Crumbling
|Blighty (UK - 0)
|Sysop, Simulation
|West US (UK - 8)
|Spıke Ѧ
|Sysop, Canine (rabid)
|East US (UK - 5)
|Sysop, Bureaucrat, Zombiebaron
Mayhem for hire
If you would like an Admin to commit specific mayhem on request, your request must be public.
- To get an annoying user banned, go to Ban Patrol.
- To get an awful but established article deleted, nominate it at Votes for Deletion (VFD).
- To get an awful new article deleted — notably, one of your own ones — go to Quick VFD.
In each case, you must follow a rasher of picky little rules to the letter to keep the mayhem from being commited upon you instead.
Working with the Admins
Here is how it is: Simsilikesims is essentially your mom. She will give you cash to replace the neighbor's window that you threw a brick through, and will take you out for ice cream when you actually do so. Whereas Spike is your father. He will ground you for a week without editing, even though you have done nothing wrong, on the theory that the mere unpleasantness will eventually make you a better person. And like your real parents, the two of them are cordial to one another, though they do live on opposite coasts. But, Hell, flying transcontinental by yourself for a "visitation weekend" is cool.
You can take your chances with them, or pick one of the others, who are somewhere in between, in all respects except geographically.
All Admins are willing to help you get established and understand the rules, procedures, and traditions. There is also a cadre of people who have expressed their willingness to adopt new users.
If, beyond the additional hand-holding of being an adopted user, you want continual attention, we suggest either Illogicopedia or Encyclopedia Dramatica. If you also tend toward toilet humor and pranks, you might try Wikipedia, which has been lacking in both departments lately.

May 6, 2016
WASHINGTON (AP) -- District of Columbia police say they are investigating an incident in which NBC News reporter David Gregory displayed what he described as a high-capacity ammunition magazine on "Meet the Press."
Police spokesman Tisha Gant said Wednesday the department is investigating whether Gregory may have violated D.C. firearms laws that ban the possession of high-capacity magazines. She declined to comment further.
While interviewing National Rifle Association CEO Wayne LaPierre on Sunday's program, Gregory held an object, apparently as a prop to make a point, and said it was a magazine that could hold 30 rounds.
High-capacity ammunition magazines are banned in the District of Columbia, regardless of whether they're attached to a firearm. "Meet the Press" is generally taped in Washington.
An email seeking comment from NBC was not immediately returned.

Never Give Up
"My name is Norma Zaremby and I am 63 years old. I worked in advertising for many years, lost my job in 2003 and then went to work for Bergdorf Goodman.Unfortunately in July 2009 I was diagnosed with Stage 4 non-Hodgkins lymphoma and the only way to try to save my life was a bone marrow transplant, which I received in September 2010. I was given the bone marrow of a young male donor who I did not know, but who was gracious enough to try and help me. I haven't had hair since 2009 and there are many side effects to the transplant, but I have never let my appearance change. I never have a bad hair day--I just wrap my head with different scarves. I taught myself how and have quite a collection. My motto is "never let them see you sweat." Maybe I can be an inspiration to other women who are battling cancer and maybe we can help others."

2011 HAS TURNED OUT to BE a YEAR HOLLYWOOD MIGHT JUST AS SOON FORGET: BOTH ACTUAL GROSSES and ATTENDANCE DROPPED ABOUT 11% from LAST YEAR (and 2010 WASN'T EXACTLY a GOOD YEAR, EITHER!)...
BUT in KEEPING with WHAT a BUMMER of as YEAR IT WAS, ONE of the FINAL RELEASES of 2011 MAY BE a SURPRISE RAZZIE® CONTENDER: THE HOKEY ALIEN-ELECTRICITY-TURNING-HUMANS-to-DUST "THRILLER" DARKEST HOUR. OPENING on CHRISTMAS DAY to LESS-THAN-SPECTACULAR BUSINESS (LINK) and SLAMMED by CRIX (LINK) HOUR IS NOW OUR BERRY LAST FORUM DISCUSSION TOPIC of 2011.
WITH EVERYTHING THAT NEEDS to GET DONE THIS MONTH to PUT TOGETHER THIS YEAR's 32nd ANNUAL RAZZIES®, OL' HEAD RAZZ HIZ-SELF WILL PROBABLY NOT HAVE TIME to SEE THIS ONE...BUT I WILL ADMIT, the TRAILER (WHICH I SAW on the HEAD of TWILIGHT SBD #1) DID GET ME to GIGGLING!
SO IF the REST of YOU MAKE a STRONG ENUFF CASE AGAINST THIS FILM, WHO NOSE -- MAYBE IT'LL TURN OUT to BE a SURPRISE HOLIDAY GIFT from the RAZZIE® GODz.

Grotti Showroom
this wiki
This article is about the Grotti Showrooms. For the manufacturer, see Grotti.
GTA San AndreasIn Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Grotti Showroom is located in the Rodeo district of Los Santos, San Andreas. It is inaccessible to the player and plays no role in the storyline whatsoever.
In Grand Theft Auto IV, the showroom has a little more to offer. It is located in Middle Park East on the corner of Pyrite Street and Bismarck Avenue. It sells Turismos which the player can steal and either drive out the double doors or out one of the many breakable windows.
The glass double doors bear a big Grotti Logo on them, there are also Grotti Logos on the walls. There is a spiral staircase at the back of the showroom which leads up to the next floor. Both floors contain Turismos which are on display. There are pedestrians and workers around the showroom, presumably looking at the cars or working in the showroom. There are windows all around.
The windows are visible (obviously) around the whole of the building and there is a roof over the top of the double doors that can be walked on by going up the interior spiral stairs, smashing the window and walking onto the roof.

Imagine having a world-famous chef as a college instructor -- and no, it's not cooking school.
WASHINGTON – Imagine having a world-famous chef as a college instructor — and no, it's not cooking school.
Local chef Jose Andres created a course for students at George Washington University, titled "The World on a Plate: How Food Shapes Civilization." The class focuses on the interfaces of food and society. And for the last class, students got a taste of Andres' cooking style.
Andres and his crew cooked paella in an 8-foot pan for students on the George Washington campus.
Watch Andres' final lecture at George Washington University.

So E3 was packed with news, as it usually is. But what did it mean for gamers who aren't ready to pay the $499 that the XBOX One will cost at launch?
Well, besides the coming releases of Call of Duty Ghosts, Battlefield 4, GTA V, and according to the President of XBOX division at Microsoft, over 100+ more titles all only for the Xbox 360.
That's great news for the current gen gamers with no plans or cash to throw at the next gen systems.
What else?
Big news actually. To say thank you to the Xbox Live Gold membership community, Microsoft is giving away two completely free full versions of games per month starting in July and ending December 31, 2013. So far Microsoft announced that Fable 3, Assassin's Creed 2, and Halo 3 will all be free titles. If you somehow have never tried any of these games before, you will get your chance with no risk.
While these titles are going to be fan favorite games and you will likely already own several of them, it is a nice gesture which has the potential to get you more out of the current generation.
The system isn't dead yet. With plans to continue adding apps and new features to the Xbox 360 as well as yet another new re-design of the console that is the quietest, fastest, and lightest version of the system to date.
The plans are not all openly being shared however, so some of it will be announced as the summer progresses.
Xbox 360 Live Summer of Arcade will begin August 7th with a bunch of new titles.
Titles like TMNT Out of the Shadows, A Tale of Two Sons, and Charlie Murder.
Ubisoft, Activision, and Microsoft all have multiple games planned for the 360 including Bungie's new game, Destiny.
By no means is it the end of the 360. To top that of, recent interviews with Epic Studios lead to news that several DLC's are planned and are being developed for Gears of War Judgment.
Recently games like GRID 2 and Injustice Gods Among Us have met critical praise and decent sales. So there are a lot of choices for games to get you through the heat of summer. And if you buy Injustice at Walmart, you get DC vs. Mortal Kombat for free as well. So have no fear 360 fans. The system is still going strong.

New York's Finger Lakes has seemingly endless options to provide the answer to the "What To Do" question. The region is known for its wine and culinary highlights, our great outdoors which includes top-notch hiking and biking, skiing, and golf, and of course, our great family-friendly atmosphere.
Enjoy a weekend getaway on the Canandaigua Wine Trail, or take the whole family for a day of fun at Roseland Waterpark. In the winter, take in a Ski and Stay package by staying at The Inn on the Lake and the more than 30 trails at Bristol Mountain Winter Resort. Another popular winter activity is snowshoeing or hiking, especially along the trails of Ganondagan where one can also learn about the deep Native American history of the area.
Active Sports and Recreation
The Finger Lakes Region is filled with a variety of year-round recreation opportunities. From summer kayaking at Canandaigua Sailboarding to winter skiing at Bristol Mountain, there's always something fun and exciting to do outdoors in the Finger Lakes.
The Finger Lakes Region is known as a playground for outdoor fun and recreation. The lakes and the seasons offer a variety of options. Hiking and biking give visitors a fun way to check out all the scenic views and challenging terrain that surround our 11 lakes. With almost a dozen courses in the area, golf is a major highlight in the warmer months, while cross country skiing and snowshoeing are popular in the winter. Check out Bristol Harbour multi season Resort to enjoy all!
In this area, we have a lot of Syracuse Orangeman fans, Buffalo Bills fans or Rochester Knighthawk fans. Don't forget that the Finger Lakes is also home to NASCAR at the Glen. These are all close, but here, in the heart of the Finger Lakes the colleges are where the fun is at! Check out the events pages at Finger Lakes Community College and Hobart and William Smith Colleges to see the latest sporting events going on.
More tips for you sports fans in the Fingerlakes? Stock car racing at Canandaigua Motorsports Park, thoroughbred racing at Finger Lakes Gaming and Racetrack, tractor pulls at the Pageant of Steam, and the Stuart Horse Trials will most certainly get you started!
Arts and Theater
Visual arts, performing arts, the written arts, and culinary arts – this area is inspiring for artists of all kinds. With all of the fantastic scenery in the Finger Lakes, it is easy to understand why this area is also a thriving and inspiring arts community. Naples is home to a whole community of artists and Canandaigua's Main Street is lined with art studios. Stores like Artizanns in Naples highlight the incredibly talented and wonderful artists of the region.
The Artisans Trail features everything the art lover could ask for. Artisans, studios and galleries, culinary arts and wine tastings, gardens, and festivals – that's what lies in this area of the Finger Lakes.
Our art is in our wine too – from Inspire Moore, a winery focused on sustainable practices whose wines have names like Love and Peace, to the New York Wine & Culinary Center where you can "taste the art of good food, good wine and a good lifestyle." Speaking of lifestyle – this is a culinary must taste from the area: pick up a Naples grape pie at Arbor Hill Grapery or Monica's!
Bristol Valley Theatre, located in a former church, is a performing arts lover's delight with performances in the spring, summer and fall from world-class actors, many of which are from New York City. Launch your own artistic trail through Naples - pencil in the Open Studio Trail and the Naples Grape Festival for a great experience. You can even go to a writer's retreat or a cultural workshop.
Geneva is a pleasant mix of "town and gown" with events at the Smith Opera House ranging from concerts to theatre to movies to guest lecturers. Hobart and William Smith Colleges is also a Finger Lakes cultural mecca and one of the premier Finger Lakes educational institutions.
In the summer, CMAC comes alive in Canandaigua, bringing in national talent such as Dave Matthews, Kenny Chesney and Kid Rock and also plays the role of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra's summer home.
History, Tours and Museums
We can't possibly capture all the history here, but make sure to check out the rest of our historic listings and visit the Ontario County Historical Society.
Landmarks and Vistas
Visitors are asked what are the top three things that you liked about your visit to Ontario County in the Finger Lakes? The answers almost always include the beauty of the Finger Lakes and the land surrounding it.
While we're certainly not Europe or one of the large cities, we still have our landmarks that dot the landscape and public parks in the area. Bloomfield's town square offers a picturesque 365 degree view of historic buildings, churches, and homes. The Canandaigua Boathouses offer memories of the steamboat era and are one of the most photographed and painted areas around. The Rowhouses along South Main Street in Geneva are preserved from their early beginnings and the subject of admiration to passersby. Clifton Springs has its covered boardwalk and glass decorations in the Pierce Block and a quick turn-around reveals the beautiful Town Clock and the meandering sulphur spring.Sweeping farmlands also provide some of the best views of the Finger Lakes. Travel Geneva's Preemption Road and take some small detours off it and you'll see Dahlia gardens, working Mennonite farms, groves of apple trees and, of course, the vistas toward Seneca Lake. Plan an early morning trip or an early evening trip along Route 96 in Seneca County and you might be able to catch a glimpse of the treasured White Deer population at the former Seneca Army Depot site. Photographers from around the world come for this unique experience.
The Finger Lakes has so many natural wonders too. Waterfalls at Grimes Glen in Naples, the tall pines at Cumming Nature Center and "the View" at County Road 12 near Naples overlooks Canandaigua Lake, provides sweeping vistas of grape vineyards and the surrounding hills.
Shopping and Spas
Girlfriends love to get away to the Finger Lakes and enjoy all the wonderful shopping and spas. From malls to main streets, the Finger Lakes offers a variety of unique shopping experiences. EASTVIEW, one of the largest shopping malls in New York State, boasts more than 170 renowned stores including an L.L. Bean nearby, while charming village shops like Cat's in the Kitchen provide a wide range of gifts and collectibles that are unique to the Finger Lakes Region. When you are ready to take a break and relax, Isabella Spa at Belhurst offers the ideal environment for total relaxation, overlooking Seneca Lake. Park West Spa sits beside Canandaigua Lake and offers the latest in spa and salon services, even including grape treatments! Life Path Spa is a spa, but so much more, also offering yoga, nature walks and healthy meals.
Water, Parks, and Farms
The Finger Lakes equals Water (lots of lakes), Parks (so much green and great outdoors), and Farms! The number one reason people come to our area is because of the beautiful lakes. In 2010 the Finger Lakes was named by Budget Travel as one of the greatest wine regions in the world. Sherman's Travel noted that our destination was voted number one in the world – even above a perennial favorite of Lake Como in Italy!
Besides the beauty of the lakes, there's the practicality of these wondrous waters. You can fish, sail, swim, ski, and kayak on the lakes. Some of the lakes are quiet and reserved – others are full of action. You can match your personality to make your visit perfect!
Agriculture is one of the area's greatest assets. Our visitors get to partake in the benefits of that lifestyle too. You can pick your own, visit a road side stand and build your own picnic, or get in touch with the animals at Lazy Acre Alpacas. Make sure you plan the fun on the farm event into your itinerary as it's a perennial favorite. For a complete overview of Ontario County's agricultural assets, visit Fingerlakesag.com
Wine and Culinary
There are more than 100 wineries located in New York's Finger Lakes Region, making wine tours a popular visitor activity. Taste our Rieslings, Pinots, Chardonnays, Cabernets, and a wide array of special New York varietals. From the Seneca Lake Wine Trail to the Canandaigua Wine Trail to the Little Lakes Wine Path, choose a wine trail and have some fun!

Energy production is increasingly catching up to illegal killing, poisoning and habitat destruction as a major danger to migratory birds.

Climate Change - Africa
After an absence of any firm location data since early October, Erzhan - our most experienced traveller - has just popped up on our radar again. For the fourth year running we can confirm he is now back in a wintering flock in Sudan.
Middle East
Preventing Extinctions
Since 2003 BSPB is working for the conservation of the Egyptian Vulture in Bulgaria. The gained knowledge during these years firmly shows that the main reason for the species decline is the increased adult mortality due to various anthropogenic threats. Significant part of the loss of birds is happening outside Bulgaria during the migration and wintering. In the last 7 years probably more than 20 adult birds did not return from their wintering areas.

Iowa State...if I was a top 5 recruit, I would still pick Iowa State...probably to be close to home and have family and fellow Iowans watch me...Iowa State also has a good computer science program so it would be easy.
2nd. Iowa (yep...close to home and major school)
3rd. Drake

5th. UNI

1. ISU seriously, i could stand out waaaaay more than in other markets.
2. KU would be fun too
John Walters is my hero
If he wants to be his own person... act not like other top recruits... then selecting ISU would allow him to blaze his own trail. At the others, he'll at best just become another great. At ISU he could become the Great.
If all the hype about Barnes is true (special top recruit that is also abnormally family oriented, smart, caring, and all the other stuff...) then going to Duke or Kansas just doesn't make sense. That's what any recruit would do if offered by those big schools. What's different and special about that... nothing. Going to a school like ISU, MN, or other non-top 5 school would show that it's more than just taking the easiest path.
I'll not only be disappointed in that ISU will lose out on a great BB talent, but I'll be disappointed that Barnes is just another top 5 recruit... nothing special. Just taking the easy route... big name school. How original.
Unfortunately, I am not Harrison Barnes
he could be a legend at ISU...

Solar Association TILOO
this wiki
Last updated: December 26, 2012
The Solar Association Tiloo is a solar cooking manufacturing company founded by Elena Steger-Kassama and Amadou Kassama in 2006. Initially the company was located in the community of Fajikunda in the Kanifing Municipal Council area of The Gambia, and has since relocated to No. 18 Mr. P. Street, Kanifing South, The Gambia.
The initial purpose of the association, with their first batch of cookers and stoves produced in 2006, was to make solar cooking more widely known across the country, and to also convince people of the need for solar cooking.
The Solar Association Tiloo, which formerly established its own solar cooker and stove making workshop in early 2007, also made it's mission to bring down the cost of living for each family, by using this economical, cheap, and healthy way of cooking.
To further express the purpose of this project, the founders established a food restaurant called Elena's Solar Food Restaurant, with a menu serving both local and continental dishes.
It is their aim to encourage people to learn how we use the sun for cooking, baking, as well as, roasting peanuts and drying fruits.
By learning to use the solar cooking on a regular basis, you indirectly join the fight to save our forests. This is therefore your contribution in helping curb the advance of deforestation in the country.
The group is currently visiting schools to demonstrate and promote solar cooking. At each school, a student is chosen and trained for five days in how to use and care for a solar oven. The student is given two solar cookers, as well as a package which contains:
- 1 bag of flower
- 1 bag of sugar
- 1 crate of eggs
- 10kg of butter
- 1 carton yeast
- 1 tin of baking powder
The goal is for the student to sell the food that he or she makes and donate the proceeds to the school.
The cost of a solar cooker is very affordable and it gives someone a chance to open a small business of selling bread, cakes, and other baked goods.
Solar Association Tiloo is divided into three parts:
- The Solar bakery (which makes solar baking and solar food popular. The bakery is creating an income for local people through solar baking and cooking. It employs as well trainees.
- The Solar Restaurant (where our guests can enjoy anything from a solar breakfast to a solar cooked dinner)
- Carpentry shop for making solar cookers and tunnel dryers localy to create more employment and reduce the cost of the solar equipment
Solar bakery and restaurant
The best examples of success is the bakery and the restaurant. They really make solar food popular. Through our daily presentations in the street with delicious solar baked cakes and cookies we generate a lot of interest, and curious patrons. The bakery sets an example of how it is possible to generate an income with solar baking. Our products are to be found along the coast in different supermarkets, small shops and along the beach. The project's restaurant serves solar baked cakes and pastries in a natural environment. The project is also visited by tourists on city tours. The tours are a great opportunity for the visitors to get unforgettable memories of their holiday in Gambia, by bringing a small solar gift for their friends and relatives back home from the Solar Association Tiloo. The feedbacks has been very positive.
See Solar restaurants and bakeries.
News and recent developments
- November 2012: GloboSol annual report The Gambia - Tiloo - The success-story started in 2006 when a Swiss woman Elena Steger-Kassama, together with her Gambian husband, introduced solar cooking and baking to his family. From humble beginnings she developed a project of admirable diversity with an infallible flair for the sensible and the practicable. Soon Elena Steger also managed to generate the financial means for the various projects mostly on her own initiative. In August 2011 a big aim was reached: the project founded its own association named Solar Association Tiloo. This step into independence fulfilled the general wish of GloboSol, that we entertain in the long run with each supported project, namely to become unnecessary. More information on the project...
- January 2011: Solar Association Tiloo, founded in 2006, started a new program at the end of 2009: 7 pilot schools in different regions received one solar oven each. They obliged to use the oven for one year in various ways. In doing so they have to earn at least 1,250 Fr. by selling solar products. When the contractual aim is successfully reached, the students receive a certificate and a new solar oven, which is then in turn given by them to another self determined school under the same conditions. In this way a snowball-effect is started designed to engender the countrywide distribution of the solar oven among the young generation. On 23rd January 2011 that moment was attained: The first certificate ceremony was celebrated with public figures, representatives of seven schools and guests from all over the country.

Have you ever found yourself with an unexpected car repair, have a bill that's just a little too high this month, or some other emergency? You aren't the only one. Sometimes the unforeseen can happen when your next payday is too far away and you don't have the time to stand in a long line – and you need an online payday loan, quickly. Money Mutual may be able to help! We are a free lender-matching service that connects borrowers to one of the largest lending networks in the United States.
The participating lenders in our network understand that there are many people who have been affected by the economy when it isn't their fault. They could help you find the short term cash you're looking for – all while being fast, private, and secure.
For more information please see the HOW IT WORKS section of our web site.
Money Mutual Payday Loans & Cash Advance Lender Matching Service
Loans online can be faster, easier, and more private than going to the payday store. In many cases, a source of income (typically your paycheck) will back these loans. Short-term loans are aimed at people like you who have an unforeseen emergency such as a medical crisis or unexpected bills. Some of the many names you'll see these loans go by online include:
- Payday loans
- Cash advance loans
- Personal loans
- Installment loans
- Short Term Loan
What makes these loans more and more popular is that they aren't just convenient, but they can also be a great way to avoid huge reconnect fees, late fees, and other hits creditors can make on your accounts. Because the economy's downturn in recent years affected the U.S. banking system in such a negative way, many people have found themselves "under banked," meaning they're being told they can't get loans from their banks or credit unions. We're here to help when the bank says no. Here are just a few of the reasons why you should use Money Mutual:
- You could possibly get the money you need in as little as 24 hours. If you see promises of "1-hour online payday loan" or "1-hour cash advance loans," don't be fooled. Even though being approved for a loan can be very quick, you probably won't get your cash in an hour. If you are approved and you accept your loan offer, the way you get your money is very similar to depositing your paycheck at the bank. You usually have to wait at least 24 hours before the money is deposited into your checking account.
- Don't waste your time standing in line! We've taken steps to help make sure that entering your information on MoneyMutual.com is secure and private. With your desktop computer, laptop, or mobile device, getting matched with a participating lender takes only a few clicks (or finger presses) to get started. Using MoneyMutual's payday loan cash advance lender matching services means you can borrow safely and securely without standing in embarrassing lines.
Over a million people have turned to Money Mutual. Here's why:
- Up to $1,000 could be directly deposited as soon as tomorrow*: Filling out our form only takes a few minutes, and approval happens quickly. In as little as 24 hours, you could have up to $1,000 directly deposited into your checking account.
- Our form is easy, and only takes 5 minutes to complete: A few pieces of simple information could possibly get you matched with a lender in mere minutes.
- Montel Williams exclusively endorses Money Mutual: Daytime Emmy Award winner and celebrated talk show host Montel Williams only endorses products that help people live better in all aspects of their lives. He understands that the economic downturn has left a lot of people with bad credit and expenses that pile up. Sometimes a cash advance loan can provide quick needed assistance and help avoid more costly fees.
- We use Verisign's 128-Bit encryption to help make your information secure:Verisign is one of the most trusted names in online security. Their 128-bit encryption helps protect your personal information when you submit it on our site.
- We are an Online Lenders Alliance member: The OLA is dedicated to informing borrowers about the online lending industry. As a proud member, we believe that customers should be fully informed and treated fairly.
- 24/7 customer service: We want to make sure your questions are answered quickly. That's why our goal is to provide the best customer service available. We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by phone or email.
Read below for information regarding loan fees, terms, repayment and renewal policies:
- What is the APR for loan that I may get from a MoneyMutual lender? First off, it's important to understand what an APR is. APR or (Annual Percentage Rate) is meant to represent the interest rate and fees of a loan for an entire year. That said, the loan that you are likely to be offered is intended to be a short-term loans that is repaid in a matter of weeks, so using an APR to represent the fees is not only inaccurate, but also fairly misleading. However, since APR is a commonly used way of expressing the fees of other common loans, such as mortgage loans, auto loans, and other types of personal loans, we feel it's somewhat useful for you to know what the representative APR ranges could be for a short-term loan. Since MoneyMutual is a lending network and not a lender, we aren't able to accurately represent the exact APR that your lender may offer; however, the typical representative APR range is somewhere between 261% and 1304% for a 14 day loan. Remember, you should pay your loan back on time to avoid fees and penalties. Make sure that you review the terms and conditions of the loan that is offered to you so that you don't end up with an "annual" loan!
- What happens if I'm late paying back the loan? If you are matched with a lender and accept the terms and conditions of their loan offer, you are agreeing to pay that loan back in the amount of time expressed in the loan documents. Partial payment, non-payment, or late payment is likely to result in additional fees. If you refuse to repay the loan all together, it is likely that the lender will engage a collection company to try and recoup what you owe them (just like any lender would). Please don't agree to a loan that you cannot repay. Renewal policies are different for every lender. As a convenience to you, some lenders may agree to alternative payment options. Some of these options may result in a renewed or "roll-over" loan that may have additional fees and may renew automatically unless you request otherwise. Please make sure to review your lender's renewal policies, and make sure that your payment preferences are known to your lender. If you have questions or need more information on renewal policies, please contact the lender and they will be happy to provide you that information. While most lenders in the MoneyMutual network do not run a traditional credit check, it is important for us to let you know that in some cases credit checks, consumer credit reports and other personal data may be obtained by some lenders from Experian, Equifax, Trans Union or through alternative providers in order to make a decision on whether or not to offer you a loan. It is also important to mention that if you do not repay your loan on time, your delinquency may be reported to a credit bureau, which could negatively impact your credit score. As with any loan, it's important to repay the loan on time or contact the lender to work out a payment plan. Please borrow responsibly!
Remember – we're here to help match you with a lender when you need emergency cash, quickly, privately, and securely. It's fast and easy to get a short term cash payday loan with MoneyMutual's lender matching services. Please use loans responsibly. Click here to learn more.

Outgoing Maine Republican Party Chair Charlie Webster says he's looking into reports that "dozens of black people" unknown to local elections officials showed up to vote in rural Maine towns on Election Day, a claim others call "outlandish."
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) _ The outgoing chairman of the Maine Republican Party says he's investigating reports that "dozens of black people'' unfamiliar to local elections officials showed up to vote in rural Maine towns on Nov. 6.
Charlie Webster made the allegations in an interview on WCSH-TV (http://on.wcsh6.com/REI3Cs).
When asked to name the towns, Webster did not.
He tells the Bangor Daily News he plans to send "several thousand'' postcards to the addresses of voters who registered on Election Day as a way to investigate potential voter fraud.
If some cards come back as undeliverable, Webster says it will prove his theory that people travel to Maine to vote fraudulently.
Webster says the investigation is not racially motivated.
Mike Tipping of the left-leaning Maine People's Alliance called Webster's claims "outlandish and offensive.''

- This article is about a mission, for the character with the same name, see : Cesar Vialpando.
- "Hey, get your dirty hands off my sister."
- — CJ to Cesar, doesn't knowing he was the boyfriend of Kendl, and later starting a discussion between CJ and Jose.
Cesar Vialpando is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas given to protagonist Carl Johnson by Grove Street Families leader and brother Sweet from his home in the Grove Street cul-de-sac in the Ganton district of Los Santos, San Andreas.
Carl drops by Sweet's house only to find him and Kendl are arguing because Kendl is dating Cesar Vialpando, the leader of a rival gang, the Varrios Los Aztecas. After a while, Kendl leaves, while Sweet furiously tells CJ to go and watch over Kendl in case anything dangerous happens.
Carl goes to the Loco Low Co. garage in Willowfield. Once there, he is given a Savanna by a worker who says he has owed Sweet from way back. Carl modifies the car and then goes to the meet in Unity Station where Kendl and Cesar are going to be. Upon arriving, he competes against a Varrios Los Aztecas gang member in a lowrider competition. After getting more points on bouncing his lowrider's hydraulics, Carl wins the wager he earlier made.
Kendl happily celebrates and hugs Carl just as Cesar shows up and shakes hands. All of a sudden, a verbal argument ensues and one of Cesar's friends tries to start a fight with Carl. Cesar, however, manages to stop it. Things calm down, and Cesar explains that Carl has to accept that Cesar treats Kendl well, and is her boyfriend. Cesar and Carl then introduce themselves to each other, and head to their own ways.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Go to the garage in Willowfield
- Back up the lowrider into the mod garage
- Get to the lowrider meeting
- Use the suspension controls to bounce in time with the music
Video walkthroughs
The reward for completing this mission is the amount of money chosen for the wager. The mission High Stakes, Low Rider is unlocked, as well as the Lowrider Challenge side mission. Loco Low Co. and TransFender mod garages are also unlocked, where the player can modify his vehicle.
- Kendl can be seen taking a pink jar of Slick-O-Greese Sex Lard with her at the beginning of the mission before she goes to see Cesar.
- When CJ is confronted by Cesar's gang members, the one speaking is seen in "The Introduction".
- The higher the stake in the lowrider challenge, the more difficult it is.
- An added challenge in this mission is to keep the low-rider you receive from being heavily damaged or destroyed by gang members shooting at it, or collisions, especially after paying for it to be modified (at least until the mission is complete). Pay 'n' Sprays can be utilized to repair damage (without drastically changing the vehicle's look), which is important for later low-rider challenges.
- Should the original Savanna be lost, you may often find one parked in the strip mall parking lot directly south of the Johnson House in Ganton.
- The Mission Complete song will not play.

The children of a Marine widow gunned down in the parking lot of a beach bingo business are asking the person responsible to come forward.
"…and I ask that you please come forward so that we can all be freed of this death," said Kim Flournoy DiJoseph, the daughter of Kim Flournoy, who was shot and killed outside T.N.T Beach Bingo on Henderson Drive in Jacksonville, December 30th.
DiJoseph and her brother Sam Flournoy sat down with WITN's Sara Dodrill, Saturday, and talked about how special their mother was, and how special she was to Jacksonville.
"The funeral director said there was close to 350-400 people there. For us to know she wasn't alone here. She always had this town," said DiJoseph.
Sam Flournoy echoed his sister, "I've had people come up to me and express their grief to me and so in that way I think Jacksonville is a little more of a home town than it has been in a while."
No arrests have been made by Jacksonville Police. Officials hope that a $22,500 Crime Stoppers reward will break open the case.
Flournoy was said to have been a regular at the beach bingo business and had lived in Jacksonville for over 20 years.

April 4th, 2014. Pauly Bonomelli is a multidisciplinary artist who feels just as at home fashioning swathes of synthetic hair onto a Britney Spears t-shirt as he is beading an elaborate couture dress. A formally trained designer, Bonomelli shies away from any design conventions, whether it's seasons or factories. Not surprisingly, this DIY mindset has has earned him fans in Rihanna, A$AP Rocky and Die Antwoord—all drawn to his hand made, customized and often up-cycled garments. Bonomelli has previously worked with Aussie brands Ksubi, Romance Was Born, and more recently, Dion Lee. But for this Sydney-based skater, the commerce side has always come secondary to the craft. We caught up with Bonomelli just before Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week: Australia (which we'll be covering on VMAGAZINE.COM: BACKSTAGE next week), as he launches an online store of limited edition and one-off pieces.
What's your earliest memory of being interested in design?
PAULY BONOMELLI Every year at a shopping center in Perth they used to have a Halloween party and there were prizes for best costume. I started making my own Halloween costumes when I was 8 and won this competition. I was a green swamp monster one year. Another year, I was a mummy.
Did you keep making your own clothes at school?
PB Yeah, we didn't have to wear uniforms, so I used to wear whatever I wanted to school. The first screen print I ever did was a t-shirt that said, "To whomever it may concern, I was absent from school yesterday because I think being a truant is hysterical. From, Paul B." My teachers would get really pissed off.
You've previously worked with prominent Australian brands such as Ksubi and Romance Was Born. Now that you've branched out on your own, tell me a bit about what you're doing at the moment.
PB Well I don't want to be just exclusively a fashion brand. I don't use any makers. I hand dye all my stuff, I do all the illustrations, I like doing all the screen-printing myself. I enjoy the craft of it, and that's why I won't do mass production. There are limited edition pieces, except I won't send anything off to factories. My buzz isn't in the outcome of seeing it in a shoot or getting press, it's sitting at home making stuff with my own hands. It's for the love of making it.
Is sustainability an important part of what you do?
PB Definitely. There's a huge amount of wastage that goes on in fashion these days. Most of my clothes have been remade from other things, some to the point where they're unrecognizable. But I always make sure the materials are sourced somewhat ethically. There's mountains of waste, so I like getting something that is shit or discarded and making it more interesting.
I love the references to different subcultures in your work, whether it's Zef, fetish or hip hop. What draws you to these groups?
PB It's everything that I've experienced in my short little life. In high school it was a lot about graffiti and sportswear. When I was in fashion school all the girls in my class just wanted to be like, Sass & Bide. They wanted to be making dresses, whereas I always wanted to make clothing that was a bit different. I loved magazines like The Face and i-D. And then you say Zef… to me that's all about looking poor, but rich. It's definitely all a reflection of what's going on around me and within me.
You've also made quite a lot of stuff for famous people. Who's been your favorite person to work with?
PB Well, Die Antwoord first and foremost. Having people you admire come back to you and treat you with that same love and respect, that just meant the world to me. Rihanna… I made stuff for her and she was totally incredible. I ended up in a hotel room doing consultations telling her about kangaroos and Australian stuff and she was pissing herself laughing. The exciting people are the ones that treat you like a human being and not like a sweatshop. I much more respond to that.
Tell me a bit about the shop you've recently launched.
PB I just launched my online store because I've been making stuff for ages and I've always just given it away to friends. Dr. Noki who is an incredible rag king and textiles designer in London and also a bit of a mentor told me: "Now is the time that you've got to whip this shit out of the bag and actually do something with it. Because fashion is eating itself, and it's time to stop the clones and try and provide customers with pieces that make them feel individual." Individuality is the key, and people that really love fashion, they don't want to be walking around (in my eyes) wearing the same stuff that other people have. So I launched the store because I just thought it was time.

Take charge of your financial health
Tracking monthly expenses helps you know where your money is going, and where you can cut back if needed.
Stress over financial matters can affect both your health and your family's well-being. For this new year, resolve to reduce stress by following these tips.
Safely store these documents
Over time, you accumulate all sorts of important papers from medical histories to bills and insurance information. It's a good idea to keep these important documents in a safe place, such as a safety deposit box or fire-proof strong box. Here are items you'll want to store safely and be able to retrieve quickly:
- Insurance plan information – life, health, dental, home owners, renters, auto, boat, etc.
- Mortgage information.
- Tax information — returns, purchase and charitable contribution receipts.
- Investment paperwork — savings, stocks, bonds and retirement records.
- Will and trust or health care directives.
How long do you keep paperwork?
Keep ATM receipts for a month, and paycheck stubs, bills, credit card, bank and investment statements for a year. Hold on to tax returns, medical bills, mortgage and home records longer (three to seven years).
Set a monthly budget
It's important to keep track of your finances and what you're spending money on in order to determine where you can cut back. Keep an accurate account of your finances for several months, then start trimming expenses where possible. There are excellent software packages available to help you keep your income and expenses balanced.
A savings budget
Whether it's for your children's college tuition, a home down payment or for retirement, it's important to make your savings goal part of your monthly budget. Set aside a regular amount, even if it's only $20 a month — starting as early as you can.
Keep an emergency fund
Financial emergencies can happen when you least expect them. Instead of adding to your debt through a credit card withdrawal or bank loan, keep an amount equal to six months expenses on hand. Get started by arranging a bi-weekly or monthly automatic transfer into your savings account.
Life insurance
If the unexpected happens, you want to know your family is safe, and that includes your finances. Foresters is among life insurance organizations that offer a range of member benefits that support overall family well-being sold by independent agents in North Carolina. It suggests asking a life insurance professional for help in selecting the coverage best suited for your family circumstances.
Check your credit score
Good credit opens many doors — auto and home ownership, backup credit lines, even co-signing your child's student loans can be influenced by your credit score.

In general, the anti-rights cultists have largely abandoned the lie of "only wanting to compromise", which is just as well; it was always a lie, everyone knew it was always a lie, and it convinced no one.

@comebackshane: @Soldier1eaODGrn Reasonable should be determined by an equal number of representatives from both sides. Compromise.
