|Heat Stabilizers Containing Hydrotalcite Particles With Specific Zeta Potentials That Demonstrate Improved Processing and Performance In Molded Vinyl Compounds - Particulate solid heat stabilizer compositions for vinyl halide polymers are provided having about 30% to 90% by weight hydrotalcite particles represented by a sigmoidal curve on a cartesian coordinate plot of zeta potential (mV) versus pH. The curve has negative zeta potential values balanced against positive zeta potential values over a pH range and an inflection point between a pH of about 3 about 6 representing the isoelectric point (IEP) between said negative and positive zeta potential values. The stabilizer compositions are essentially free flowing, storage stable, and processable upon mixing components of the composition for blending with a vinyl halide polymer in effective amounts to confer heat stabilizing effectiveness upon said polymer.

Parent support program provides textbook for child development
February 12, 2009
By Mr. Kevin Stabinsky (IMCOM)
FORT MCPHERSON, Ga. Aca,!" Children may not come with instruction booklets, but the Army Community Services Family Advocacy Program has a lot of information to provide a healthy blueprint for parenting.
"Children are amazing," said Anne Murray, parent education specialist for the ACS FAP. "You do what you can to mold them."
As a parent educator, Murray said her job is to help parents know how to help their children. Such help covers all areas of a baby's development, both inside and outside of the womb.
The parenting classes (see the schedule below for classes and times) are designed to help mothers, those planning, expecting and new, learn about their baby and provide them with steps to ensure their baby is as healthy as possible. Classes are also designed for fathers, with some classes, like the fatherhood group, designed specifically for dads.
Steve Bratton, an expecting father and school teacher, was one dad taking advantage of the classes offered. He, along with spouse, Capt. Ashley Bratton, executive officer for Army Central's Operation Protection Directorate, attended the Baby Care Workshop Jan. 31. Ashley is pregnant with their first child, a son, Barret, due April 9.
"We want our influence to be good," Steve said of his and Ashley's goal as parents.
So far, the couple has attended five classes.
"We just want to gain some general knowledge about pregnancy, birth and being a parent," Ashley said, adding the best information received so far was about what to expect during pregnancy. "It helps with eliminating some of the uncertainty in a very intimidating time, and gives you more confidence that you can handle whatever may come up."
The class the couple attended was designed to help them learn how to communicate with their child.
"Just because you don't speak their language doesn't mean they aren't communicating," Murray said. "The most important thing is you understand the baby. If you can read a baby, you can better respond."
Murray said a baby has five states of consciousness: deep sleep, rapid eye movement sleep, drowsy, quiet alert and active alert, and it is important to know what state they are in to be proactive instead of reactive.
"Parenting is a thinking profession," Murray said. "If you're only reacting to your baby, it is going to be tough."
Besides parenting classes, people can also learn about being good parents from their own parents.
"Look at your parents' skills. Look at what you want to emulate and what you don't want," Murray said.
Books are also available from many sources, including ACS and the Fort McPherson Post Library. The Brattons have been reading both "What to Expect When You're Expecting" and "Childbirth Without Fear."
From her own parenting experiences, Murray, a mother of five, said it is important to stay connected with your child's life.
"Responsible parents know who their child's friends are, who the parents of their friends are, their parents' values," she said.
By keeping in touch with a child's life, a parent is better able to build a relationship with them, as well as values, Murray said. These values, if proper, will help the child grow up to help contribute to society, she added.
Wondering how their child will grow up and how they will be as parents are exciting concepts for the Brattons.
"I think we both just look forward to getting to know our child and how we will actually end up being as parents," Ashley said. "I know everyone has this picture in mind about what a great parent they are going to be, and how they are going to be different than their parents. But you never know for sure until you're actually in that situation. We are really just excited about seeing what our son is going to be like and become."
Murray's most valuable piece of advice for the Brattons and other couples raising children is to provide unconditional love.
"None of us are perfect. None of us will be perfect. Be there for them through thick and thin," she said. "Treat your children with dignity, courtesy and respect and expect the same from them. Have patience in the growth process, relish and encourage every phase of development in a child's life and help him or her move from one to another."
"The classes have been a good experience for us," Ashley said. "We leave ACS every time saying that we have learned something new."

Facing the death penalty, Christopher Monfort tried to do the deed himself - attempting to commit suicide, and getting a TV set as a reward. He also claims he was insane when he allegedly killed Seattle police officer Tim Brenton on Halloween night 2009. Now - a pill-popping paraplegic with a bullet lodged in his back, fighting off pain, infections, pressure sores and declining health - the question is whether Monfort, if convicted of aggravated first-degree murder, will live long enough to attend his execution, and if the millions of dollars being spent to carry it out will be worth it.
"His life expectancy is substantially shorter than most 44-year-olds," says defense attorney Carl Luer. Monfort has "roughly 14 1/2 to 15 years of life" left Luer estimates. That's hardly long enough for his appeals to run their course and an execution to take place.
Monfort is one of three accused murderers currently facing the death penalty in King County, a rare string of ongoing capital prosecutions that have already cost taxpayers more than $9 million without a single trial being held.
King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg thinks the murders are the kind of cases the penalty was reserved for, and that money shouldn't be the deciding factor. He blames the "death-penalty industry " for the high costs, claiming most defense attorneys "are ideologically opposed to the death penalty and want to prove how slow and how expensive it is."
But costly and slow is how justice has always unfolded in capital cases. The current poster boy for that is former death-row inmate Darold Stenson, 59, of Clallam County. He was given the death penalty for the 1993 shooting deaths of his wife, Denise, and his business partner, Frank Hoerner.
On appeal the case was reversed last year by the state Supreme Court, which found that prosecutors had wrongly withheld evidence. Stenson is now back in the county jail, without bail, awaiting a new death-penalty trial that the county says will cost up to $1.4 million.
It's a 20-year-old case that has already cost millions, notes defense attorney Todd Gruenhagen, "and they're starting at the beginning again."

FDI: Paswan seeks protection for small traders
New Delhi: Ramvilas Paswan-led Lok Janshakti Party Tuesday supported the government`s decision to introduce FDI in multi-brand retail but insisted that the interests of small traders from Dalit and backward community be protected at all levels.
Observing that BJP`s opposition on the issue is based on petty politics, the LJP president said, "BJP is raising the issue only to take attention away from other critical matters such as corruption and development. It is an example of petty politics."
"Parliament is free to discuss everything. We have been supporting the FDI in retail on one condition -- the interests of small traders from Dalit and backward communities should be protected by the government at all levels," Paswan said, favouring a discussion in Parliament on the FDI issue.
The decision will benefit traders, producers and even consumers by eliminating middlemen and shortening the route to the wholesale markets, Paswan told reporters.
The LJP president also supported appointment of IPS officer Ranjit Sinha as the Director of CBI.
Attacking BJP for its demand to revoke Sinha`s appointment, he said, "Ranjit Sinha is a very competent officer. BJP has no case in opposing his appointment. BJP has been creating useless issues, without any merit."
Paswan said he had written a letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh demanding a CBI probe into alleged malpractices and embezzlement of funds in MNREGA schemes in Bihar.
"Delhi-based Centre for Environment and Food Security (CEFS) has conducted a performance audit of MNREGA in Bihar from 2006-2011 and they claim that 73 per cent of funds spent in 38 districts of Bihar have been embezzled by implementing authorities," Paswan said.

Movie review: 'Olympus Has Fallen'
Michael Banning (Gerard Butler) wants his old job back.
Once one of the elite Secret Service agents assigned to protect the first family, he is reassigned after one of their deaths. He especially misses the president's son Conner (Finley Jacobsen), a bright boy who loves learning all the secrets of the White House.
Eighteen months later, Banning is a treasury agent pushing papers behind a desk. He routinely asks his boss Lynne Jacobs (Angela Bassett) to be reinstated but is just as routinely denied.
It's business as usual when the South Korean prime minister arrives for a meeting with President Benjamin Asher (Aaron Eckhart). The Korean delegation includes a retired Secret Service agent (Dylan McDermott), who was also on duty the night of the accident.
A breach in the air space over the White House means President Asher, the South Korean prime minister and their retinues get moved to the bunker under the White House.
When Asher and company are safe inside, the real trouble erupts. An air attack starts at the same time a group of terrorists fight their way into the White House, killing everyone they find. In the bunker, the Korean security team starts killing people and ties up the president, vice president, the secretary of defense and others before contacting the Pentagon.
Kang Yeonsak (Rick Yune), is in the bunker as part of the Korean contingent. He is head of the terrorists and has a plan to destroy the U.S. He assassinates the prime minister in front of them.
A group of American military, Secret Service and government officials, including acting President Allan Trumbull (Morgan Freeman), are assembled in a Pentagon war room. They are the first to hear Kang's demands — withdraw all American troops, including the Seventh Fleet, from South Korea in one hour or people will die.
Banning saw the attack on the White House and runs over to help. He manages to get in and contact the war room. His first assignment is to find Connor and get him out. He becomes a one-man killing machine as he uses his knowledge of the secret hallways and hidden caches of weapons to find the boy and free the president.
Kang has another, much more sinister plan under way in the bunker, one that will destroy the United States. Each American in the room must decide what they are willing to do to stop this plan.
"Olympus Has Fallen" is a straight-ahead action movie with a disturbing undertone. Perhaps it's because all the action takes place on what we consider to be the symbol of America and all things patriotic, it's sickening to watch all the history destroyed.
Butler does a fine job as a man who is redeeming himself as he single-handedly saves the country. There is dark humor as he makes good on every threat he's made.
"Olympus Has Fallen," while formulaic and predictable, is still fun to watch.

Excellent detail.
love it

One day old is still pretty new.
I think this is the first one you've done with anti-aliasing, besides the hand-drawn one of Rainbow Dash. Or is there an even bigger version of this? I thought the Nightmare Night ones were anti-aliased at first.
Can we get a wallpaper version? I'll use that one, but it feels weird to have a topical wallpaper after it stops being topical. If you think it's too late now, imaging using it a year from now.
*howls* hubba-hubba X3
I love luna!
Sexy Luna is best Luna.
What a hot & gorgeous Lunar beauty.
Happy New Year, and may you have a blessed 2014.
2014 is the Year of the Horse. THE YEAR OF THE PONIES IS UPON US! REJOICE!! XD
The dress is a little... revealing, but Luna looks gorgeous.

Egg donation
At AVA Peter we understand that egg donation is not always an easy decision to make, or step to take. There are many reasons why a women may require egg donation and different journeys that they will have taken before reaching us, but whatever the reason, or however different the journey may have been, here at AVA Peter we know that we can support you and help you create a healthy pregnancy and healthy baby.
The only reason why we would not be able to achieve this through egg donation is if the women's uterus (womb) should be absent, or there are severe general medical reasons why a patient should not become pregnant and then egg donation becomes impossible. Whatever your doubts or concerns may be please do not forget your wish to become a mother.
Please request a telephone consult with our Doctor so that we can advise you personally on your chances for live birth through egg donation.
At AVA Peter we are proud that we can offer our patients the chance to experience becoming a mother without the need to wait months for a donor or except donor eggs that may not be the best possible match or quality as in many other clinics.
From the very beginning of you egg donation process it is of great importance to us that you understand your medical reasons and feel comfortable to use egg donation. Our patients play an active role in the process of donor choice with our full support and advice.
Due to our extensive donor database, the only one in Europe, we are able to successfully offer our patients not only the best possible chance of success but also a personal choice!
We use high quality donor eggs from young healthy egg donors, recommend you highly efficient hormone support and have very high standards of communication so as to prevent rather than cure any complications.
Our ultimate goal is a healthy baby in your arms in the shortest possible time!

1. Species traits have been frequently used in ecological studies in an attempt to develop a general ecological framework linking biological communities to habitat pressures. The trait approach offers a mechanistic alternative to traditional taxonomy-based descriptors. This review focuses on research employing traits as biomonitoring tools for freshwater ecosystems, although the lessons learned have wider application in the assessment of other ecosystem types.
2. We review the support from ecological theory to employ species traits for biomonitoring purposes (e.g. the habitat templet concept, landscape filtering hypothesis), and the subsequent studies that test the hypotheses arising from these theories, and apply this knowledge under real freshwater biomonitoring scenarios. We also include studies that deal with more specific issues such as trait trade-offs and trait syndromes.
3. We highlight the functional trait approach as one of the most promising tools emerging for biomonitoring freshwater ecosystems. Several technical issues are addressed and solutions are proposed. We discuss the need for: a broader unified trait biomonitoring tool; a more accurate understanding of the natural variation of community patterns of trait expression; approaches to diminish the effects of trait trade-offs and trait syndromes; additional life history and ecological requirement studies; and the detection of specific impacts under multiple stressor scenarios.
4. Synthesis and applications. This review provides biologists with the conceptual underpinning for the use of species traits as community descriptors and for freshwater biomonitoring and management. We expect that the functional trait approach will ultimately improve communication to managers and legislators of the importance of protecting freshwater ecosystem functions.

500 years ago in Norrath...
...there was a guild called Titans. Well ok, how about the year 2000 as you and I would know it. That was my first foray into guild making, leadership and what it took to make things work. Titans went on for a good long time and eventually merged with Clan Beyond on the Povar server and started raiding and blah blah and then merged with Dark Legion in 2003 to hit the Planes of Power.
I still remember running out to buy Planes of Power when it launched. 4 copies, each with my Fiorna Vie collectors Figurine in it. I still have those 4 boxes to this day.
Lately, I have been having a good old time starting all over with a crew of people in EQ2, but I wondered what it would be like to hit up EQ1 again. I don't have my old account so I would be broke and destitute.
Many bloggers do it so I won't go into details here. However with the failure of many MMO's to recapture my glory day feelings I give up. I got a Station Pass and re-upped EQ2, EQ1 and even Vanguard whee I now have a level 3 Cleric. Whoopty DOO.
Oddly enough when my buddy and I went to make a Titans chapter in EQ1, all we had to do was select create a guild and BAM it was done. Two people. I remember in the old days how if you wanted to start a guild in EQ1 it was a HUGE deal. Many MMO's today would be better off for that.
First you had to have 10 people agree to make the guild in a chat room offline. Then you ALL had to login and be in the same area. Then you had to wait for a GM to show up and approve the guild and apply the tag. This process would have you on pins and needles because it took a lot of coordination.
And you know what? GUILDS STUCK TOGETHER BACK THEN. It is not like today where you can make a guild so you get bank slots and name it something stupid like "MOESGUILDHOWZ".
So yeah I went back to Norrath and I will just hang out there with a little Vanguard on the side when we want a change. I don't owe anyone anything. We aren't leading any guilds just providing a place for newcomers or returnees to hang out. If it turns into something then fine. If not then fine. Myself and the four others that play get, if we are lucky, 3 nights online.
If I am going to be cutting back on gaming time I am doing it in a MMO that I know, one that is hard core and still works, and one that has a lot of content.I simply cannot stand the rejects that are playing these post WoW MMO's anymore. I'm ducking for cover and running back to something that is 5 or even 10 years old. If I have to keep playing my MMO's with these idiots that do not understand the basic concepts of agro, tanking or healing for one more week I will simply become more jaded than I already am. At least in EQ1 I can hire mercs now that shut up and do their job. So yes I picked up Seeds of Destruction. Figured why the hell not. The only thing I regret is giving that much money to Sony but what can I do.
Povar, Antonia Bayle, Seradan. Those are the servers in the respective games. One of my accounts is from 2005 and I have so much stuff to claim I do not even know where to start. Back in 2004 I had sold my original 1999 EQ1 account. I admit that was pretty dumb but I have others to fall back on. Unfortunately everything since then is tied to the one account that in Everquest has NONE of my plat. So I am broke. Oh well thems the breaks.
We have 2 people in EQ1 and about 9+ in EQ2. The guild in EQ2 is level 5 already. You know where to message me if you want in (firstname.lastname@example.com). But be warned: we don't play all the time and we are starting over to learn and experience the game. So no whining garbage about "WAHH I HAVE A LEVEL 80 on another server blah blah." So what? It is just levels. Do you want to PLAY and hang out, or stand around and brag?

The reason is - the ACR knows in what order to apply all your options (regardless of the order you actually applied them) on RAW file for the best output.
Sure LR and ACR are sophisticated programs but if I wanted all this automation, I may as well rely on the camera's jpeg engine. Afterall EXPEED should also know what NR to apply.
But in the interest of learning, can someone humour me and explain the logic of NR before resampling or after and whether it makes a difference?

Decisions concerning how much money should be invested into a Bartholomew County Annex building and how to fund it are expected tonight.
A three-member subcommittee will make its recommendations to the Bartholomew County Council during a 6 p.m. meeting.
During its April 8 meeting, council president Ryan Lauer said the council tonight will provide a definitive amount that members are willing to support, as well as funding mechanisms.
While commissioners chairman Carl Lienhoop told the council $4.5 million will be sufficient for the county's needs, another commissioner — Larry Kleinhenz — said he expects a limit closer to $3 million to be established by the council tonight.
Although recent discussions have focused on a new building, there's still sentiment among some council members to spend less money by either rehabilitating the structurally failing 86-year-old current annex or acquiring another existing building, according to council member Jorge Morales.
County officials have stated tentative plans to break ground on a new building a year from now.

Alsace, France from Belgium?
Is this doable in a 2 week trip?
Is this doable in a 2 week trip?
Jill, It should be, but it would help to have a few more details on your trip. Are you planning to visit only the Alsace and Belgium, or other locations as well? Where are you planning to stay in the Alsace? Cheers!
"Is this doable in a 2 week trip?" That depends on what you want to do. Post more details, and we can give more advice. For starters, a quick look at the Bahn website shows that a train from Brussels to Strasbourg is 5-6 hours with 1-2 changes. So that's certainly doable.
Where in Belgium are you coming from? Are you driving or taking public transportation? Where do you fly back from? Have you considered the Netherlands or western Germany (e.g., Aachen, Trier) as an alternative?

Just to express the stories and characters that emerge in my head when I'm bored.
Hm... do you daydream much? I hear that really helps. It helps me. But it can't be fantasizing, I mean a daydream that could potentially turn into a nightmare or uncomfortable, embarrassing or funny, etcetera. Allow those possibilities. That way you get the sense of realism. You can add some randomization, close your eyes and let the pictures emerge in front of you. You should begin to see flickers of random scenes. I'm not sure what they are yet, but I believe them to be jumbled snippets of your memories. It helps to be in a calm, quiet and possibly meditative state.
Some of these flickers of scenes can be unusual and thought-provoking. Certainly inspiring when you start piecing together a story from them.

It may take "a village" to establish a new parking plan for downtown Columbus.
Steering the process will be a committee of six or seven members representing key stakeholders — public officials, downtown merchants and downtown restaurants, plus a representative from the region's largest employer. The Cummins Inc. world headquarters is on the edge of downtown, and the engine maker has about 3,000 employees who work from offices in downtown Columbus.
Council president Dascal Bunch and councilman Frank Jerome volunteered to represent the council, but the parking committee roster has yet to be filled out.
The organizational shape of this effort was crafted during Tuesday night's City Council meeting, which covered a lot of ground but did not attempt to answer the most controversial parking decision facing elected officials: Reintroduce paid parking or continue with free parking for a limited time?
That decision will be made by the City Council as the process moves forward.
Boston-based consultant Nelson/Nygaard, hired last May for $85,000 to evaluate downtown parking, originally recommended a return to paid parking in the downtown core area. At the request of Mayor Kristen Brown, however, the consultants came back with a second option to modify the city's current approach of timed parking.
The parking study and a survey of 1,000 residents last year found Columbus had 5,831 parking spaces in an area reaching from First to Eighth streets and from Lindsey Street to Lafayette, Pearl and Sycamore streets. According to the study, based on the square footage of the buildings in the area, it would need 5,681 parking spaces if all businesses, apartments and stores were using the maximum number of parking spaces. But the study also noted the maximum number isn't ever really needed.
While the study determined that Columbus already had enough parking spaces downtown to meet its needs, the complicating factor is available spaces aren't always conveniently located or easily found.
Consultants reported many of the most sought-after spaces in front of downtown businesses are used by downtown business employees, who move their vehicles from space to space in hopes of avoiding a ticket. The downtown parking policy now is a maximum three-hour timed parking in the core area, even though some drivers try to skirt that by moving their cars from one spot to another over the course of a day.
The parking study defines the core area as Washington Street between Second and Fifth streets and one block from Washington on Third and Fourth streets. An optional addition to the core area is Washington between Fifth and Seventh streets.
Paying for convenience
Retailer Tom Dell, who led the local steering committee that worked with the consultants to come up with the parking plan, maintained that downtown visitors — whether customers or downtown business employees — want to park where it's convenient.
Dell said the sentiment of some downtown business owners is metered parking will create spaces for patrons willing to pay for convenience, something downtown business employees will not be willing to do.
Dell said many of those employees will instead opt for free parking options outside of the city core.
The study also found available parking isn't being used efficiently. It determined:
The U.S. Postal Service doesn't use all its spaces in the Jackson Street garage.
Cole Apartments aren't filling their reserved spaces in the Third Street Garage.
The Cummins garage at Sixth Street is underutilized.
Those who issue parking tickets downtown confirm the majority of tickets issued are going to downtown business employees.
The city last year collected $24,875 in parking fines for all types of violations, from exceeding parking limits to parking on a yellow line or in a handicapped zone without a permit.
What's enough time?
Council members shared concerns about both parking options.
Questioning a downtown survey that showed most customers want at least two-and-a-half hours in a free parking space for a downtown visit, councilman Jerome asked whether that much time was really needed.
"People at the kidscommons say that three hours isn't enough," Dell said.
Sometimes, families decide they can't visit the children's museum for enough time and still go out to eat downtown because of the timed parking limits.
Dell believes timed parking tends to drive visitors out of the downtown area.
Studying parking ordinances
Councilman Frank Miller wants to review current city ordinances about parking to determine what changes are needed.
"We should be discussing what we're responsible for and concentrate on what we're responsible for doing," Miller said.
There are multiple city ordinances that deal with parking, City Attorney Jeff Logston explained.
A list of the ordinances will be part of information assembled for the parking committee as it oversees the process and will make its way to the council, Logston said
When councilman Jim Lienhoop asked about how parking is enforced downtown now, the council learned that one parking department employee is patrolling the entire core area, writing down license plate numbers and times by hand on paper.
The city had computerized equipment years ago to monitor parking, but it broke and hasn't been replaced, Police Chief Jason Maddix said.
The parking software was not compatible with the city's complicated tiered parking-fine system, he said.
Tickets start with a warning, and then are $10 for a second offense. Tickets then increase in $5 increments for each offense until reaching the maximum $30 for a calendar year.
On the list of city assignments, the police department will be handling technology used in parking enforcement.

Additional Information
About Yehu Microfinance TrustThis loan is administered by Yehu Microfinance Trust, which was founded in 1998 as a project of CHOICE Humanitarian Kenya. In July 2007, Yehu became a separate entity from CHOICE and was registered as a trust. Since then, Yehu has expanded to cover over half of Kenya's 13 coastal districts.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Salem Five Direct's New Savings Account & CD Promotions
Salem Five Direct has a new promotion for its eOne Savings account. It's offering new eOne Savings account customers a 1.00% APY on balances up to $1 million. The rate had been 0.75%. Unlike past promotions, it's not guaranteed to last for any amount of time. The rate could change at anytime. This promotional rate is listed at the bank's eOne Savings page as of 8/29/2012.
One thing that's misleading in my opinion is that this 1.00% APY does not apply to existing customers. I tried to get the existing savings account rate using Salem Five's online chat service, but the CSR would not disclose this to me. I was only told that the 1.00% APY was a promotional rate, and that it did not apply to existing customers. If you're an existing customer, please leave a comment about your current rate. Hopefully, it's at least 0.75%.
Since this 1.00% APY is the only rate listed at Salem Five Direct, I would have assumed this applied to all customers. Fortunately, two DA readers who are eOne savings account customers described how they were mislead in this forum thread. Their savings account rate was cut to 0.75% long before this rate cut was shown on Salem Five Direct. One reader said that he was only able to tell that the rate cut occurred when he reviewed his statement and noticed the rate was cut at the start of the statement cycle (over a month ago).
The 1.00% APY is competitive, but not knowing how long this will last and not having an easy way to tell when it changes are major downsides.
Salem Five Direct savings account also has other downsides. There are fees and small limits on its ACH bank-to-bank transfer system. Below is an excerpt of the CSR chat describing this:
There is a fee for outgoing transfers only if you initiate it from Salem Five. External Transfers outgoing from your account are limited to $2,000 per transaction, $2,000 in aggregate per day and $20,000 in aggregate per calendar month. Please be aware that there is a $3.00 fee for each outgoing transfer; there is no charge for incoming transfers. If you initiate it form another bank there is no fee and there is no limit to withdraw.
CD Promotion
Salem Five Direct is also offering a CD promotion with two special CD rates that are fairly competitive: 1.10% APY for 18 months and 1.25% APY for 30 months. These rates are listed in the Salem Five Direct eCD page as of 8/29/2012.
Minimum deposit of the eCD is $10,000. These specials are only available for funds not currently on deposit at Salem Five. I asked the CSR for some more details of these eCDs. Below are excerpts of the replies that I received:
Here is what I was told for opening and closing the eCD:
The eCD and eOne Savings account would need to funded online from another bank. You would include the routing number and account number on the application. We send a maturity notice for CD's 40 days prior to the maturity date. You may send a request in writing to close the CD, or if you have online banking with Salem Five you may send the message securely through the Contact Us link.
We can either mail a check or you may complete a wire form and mail it with the letter to close the account. Outgoing domestic wire transfers are 20.00.
And here is what I was told on the early withdrawal penalties:
The penalty would be 4% of the principal balance for both terms.
The penalty would be 1% of the principal balance if it is a jumbo CD, for 100,000.00 or more.
The 4% of principal is a large penalty when the highest interest rate is only 1.25%. That's over 3 years of interest!
It's interesting that the Jumbo CD EWP is so much smaller. If you can confirm this, please leave a comment.
Bank Overview
I first reported on Salem Five Direct back in 2007 when it was offering the eOne checking account with a 5.30% APY. The eOne Savings account was launched in 2009.
Salem Five Direct is an online division of Salem Five Cents Savings Bank, which is based in Massachusetts. As a Massachusetts bank, it's a member of the Massachusetts Depositors Insurance Fund (DIF) which covers deposits that exceed the FDIC limits. One thing to note about DIF is that it's a private insurance fund. So there's no government guarantee. You can read the details at the DIF website.
Deposits up to the FDIC limits are guaranteed just like they are at every other FDIC member bank. Salem Five has been a FDIC member since 1981 (FDIC Certificate # 23296).
Salem Five has an overall health score at DepositAccounts.com of 4 stars (out of 5) with a Texas Ratio of 13.43% (above average) based on March 2012 data. Please refer to our financial overview of Salem Five Bank for more details.

First, let's all agree not to become OUTRAGED by the concept of pregnant women acting crazy, ok? Ok.
Let's share stories about when our friends turned into pregnant monsters.
I mentioned this in another thread, and since then the situation has escalated... I ditched a baby shower yesterday. The girl is barely a friend and frankly I am super busy preparing for a trip and it is her second kid, blah blah blah I just did not have time to make it. I never RSVP'd or even got an invite in the mail. She invited me via text (I suspect beause she knows I have given nice gifts to other people in the past).
Today she tried to get me to deliver her the gift (that I have yet to buy, actually, lol) and when I said I would try to make it but I was swamped, she then tried to come to my house to get the gift with her toddler in tow. I have communicated with this person more in the past 24 hours than I have all year. It's all about her obsession with getting a gift. Soooo, I told her I was out running errands and I would call her later.
She just totally stalked me and did a driveby of my house. My windows look onto the street and I see everything. She probably also saw me on the sofa in my workout clothes eating cheesecake and toodling around on the DT and watching Bravo.
For debate: Do I pretend this did not happen or do I call her later and try to make up some lame excuse?

We are still struggling with the perfect names for our twin girls due later this summer...
One we've decided on for sure is Lucy (with Kate as a middle name)
Please suggest other ideas that are similar to Lucy but not too matchy!
Thank you!!
Audrey is the first name that came to mind.
Lucy was on our short list of names, as was Audrey. I think they "fit" very well together.
Other names that might work (and sorry for repeats): Rose, Alice, Georgia, Mary, Phoebe...
I really, really like Lucy, too!
Mommy to the super-twins: my Handsome Fella and my Gorgeous Girl
Mommy (30) & Daddy (42)
Elias Patrick born 3/28/14!!
I am a a giant cheesy dork when it comes to twin names (probably not the best intro, lol), but the first thing that popped into my head was Lucinda and Lorinda-- Lucy and Lori. I know everyone is groaning right now, but it only looks matchy if someone had both of their full names. It doesn't sound matcy on the day-to-day.
Or, Lucille and Camille-- Lucy and Cami (or Millie).
Sorry for being a cheeseball!
Luke {01/11} Arthur {02/12} Adela & Olive {04/13} Francis & Edmund {11/14}
Mom to Reid Nicholas (5~20~2011) and Grey Michael (5~12~2013)
Lucy and Greta are our top two girls names (Lucy Jane or Greta Jane), and I think they sound adorable together for twins. I also like pp's suggestions of Ruby Clare and Clara Mae. Molly is cute with Lucy Kate too. GL!
Baby Boy G born 12/11/13

Atomic London, the start-up agency founded by Nick Fox and three of his former DDB UK colleagues, has picked up the global advertising brief for the airline network Star Alliance.
The agency won the business, which moves from DDB UK, without a pitch. It is the first account to be picked up by the new agency.
Star Alliance includes brands such as bmi, United Airlines and Lufthansa.
Last year, DDB created a pan-European campaign for Star Alliance that promoted global travel. The TV, print, online and social ads focused on the "Biosphere Connections" sustainability project.
In February, DDB created an app for the network that allowed business travellers to earn upgrades and prizes by taking photos.
Atomic London launched at the end of May. The agency's founders are Fox, Jon Goulding, Guy Bradbury and Richard Hill. Atomic London has a "co-operative" relationship with DDB.

Reload the page and try again.
Local Area:
I love the Oakland and Pittsburgh area. There is always plenty to do
Drug Safety:
While drugs are visible and not necessarily enforced, I don't feel there is pressure to use these drugs
For being an out of state student I thought that the financial aid I received was sufficient and met my expectations
Health & Safety:
I feel safe on campus. I believe that there is a police presence and appropriate safety precautions on campus
We have great diversity here! Everyone comes from different places with different backgrounds. It's great getting to know people!
Greek Life:
Greek life is prominent around campus because of the parties and events they have. People go up the hill for their parties. But if you're non-Greek, it's no big deal. We all get along!
I love being a psychology major! They offer great and diverse classes to fulfill the requirements. I'm hoping to become a doctor or vet.
To be a psychology major you have to take statistics first and be enrolled in another class beforehand. That's kind of annoying, but whatever.
People talk about football and basketball almost religiously sometimes, it's a big part of our campus! Hail to Pitt!
People aren't very strict about most things, except if your RA or anyone catches you drinking in the dorms.
Health & Safety:
I feel safe on campus and student health is fantastic!
The selection of classes and diversity are great!
I love the city run buses! They go everywhere!
Campus Housing:
I'm in the brand new dorm and I absolutely love it!
Off-Campus Dining:
There's a good mix of restaurants near/on-campus. Many of the restaurants on the main part of campus will take panther funds. You can find pretty much any type of cuisine you want in Pittsburgh; indian, peruvian, mexican, french.
Local Area:
There's something for everyone in Pittsburgh. Orchestra, musicals, comedy, dancing, sports, bars, fitness, ethnic cuisine.
Several OSs to choose from, Windows, Mac, or Red Hat. You get 900 pages of print per semester. You can use the quote to print color pages (1 color pages = 7 pages from your print quota). I've never had a problem with any of the labs being too crowded to get a computer.
Party Scene:
Plenty of bars on the southside.
Guys & Girls:
Pitt's student body is literally so average when it comes to physical appearance. There are more pretty girls than there are attractive guys. There are honestly so few attractive guys living on campus that anyone slightly above average will have no problem finding someone to hookup with.
Security is only slightly more strict than I think it needs to be. Students are required to sign in guests before entering the dorm which can be annoying and inconvenient. Many students drink in the dorms but will not get in trouble if they are smart about it. Students only get written up if they are loud or have an obnoxious amount of people. While you are allowed a certain number of strikes for alcohol, there is a zero tolerance drug policy. Overall, I have felt nothing but safe in Oakland even at night.
In Pittsburgh we say, "if you don't like the weather, wait 20 minutes, its bound to change."
Local Area:
Pittsburgh is the best place to go to school and Pitt is the best it has to offer bar none. There is literally always something to do in the city and thanks to our free bus pass, getting around is super convenient (Pitt is the only school in town with this opportunity). The Oakland neighborhood is also very safe and filled so many restaurants that you never actually have to leave. Because Pittsburgh is a moderately sized city, it attracts big name concerts and speakers so there is always something to do.
There are campus shuttles en route throughout the day with several convenient stops. I don't know a Pitt student who doesn't owe their life to the 10A. Additionally, Pitt students get free access to Pittsburgh city buses which makes getting downtown very convenient.
Supposedly Pitt's entire campus is hooked up to wifi... My phone connects in three buildings and even then it goes in and out. My laptop gets some wifi everywhere I need it to, but it can be slow and unreliable: especially in the library. Even though the school provides wifi in dorm buildings, I recommend bringing an Ethernet cable.
Greek Life:
Greeks have very consistent social calenders with I sort of envy just because they never have to think about what they're going to do a given weekend. Frat guys think non-frat guys are savage. Non-frat guys think guys in frats are pretentious. But obviously there are others who could care less about letters. I definitely prefer guys in frats to girls in sororities. Every sorority girl I know thinks, acts and dresses the same. While I would never discourage anyone from rushing, it was not for me. My social life is fine without letters telling me who I can and can't hangout with.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Overall, students agree that they wouldn't trade their Pitt experience for anything. As with most decisions, there are a lot of things to consider. If you don't like living in a city environment, Pittsburgh may not be the place for you. While it doesn't have the feel of New York of Philadelphia, the area is definitely urban. Also, Pitt is a large school—you're in for some big lecture classes and a somewhat overwhelming campus during the first year or so. Everything will seem to get smaller after you've been around awhile, though. Weather can be a concern if you're used to a warmer climate—snow, rain, and wind rule Pittsburgh winters. This is something that you can easily get used to though, unless you're a diehard warm weather fan.
What Pitt does offer is high-caliber academics, plenty of student organizations, and countless opportunities, such as study abroad, cultural activities, and sports. If you're willing to become active on campus, there's a lot more to Pitt than meets the eye. The University's location can also be a great advantage—Pittsburgh itself is a great city that is a positive environment for students to live and learn in, thanks in part to the city being home to a number of colleges and universities. The social scene is always jumping, locals are friendly, and there's always something to do if you explore a little. The best idea is to visit and try to get a feel for the area. You can get the same quality education at Pitt that can be found in many smaller, expensive schools, but here you'll pay less to have a vibrant city right at your doorstep.

The Madera Parks and Community Services' annual Eggstravaganza will be held starting at 10 a.m. Saturday at Lions Town and Country Park.
By Cristal Rivera of Madera South High School
This evening around 6:30 p.m. Madera South High's seniors will gather at our MSHS track for the Senior Sunset!
On Wednesday morning, the Sunrise Rotary Club recognized Ana Boch as their student of the month. Boch is a fourth grade student at James Madison School.
If you were to use one word to describe the state of Madera and Madera County, that word would be "better." Maybe only a little better, but better nevertheless.
As I was waking up and weighing the benefit of rolling over for another 15 or 20 minutes, I started thinking about my attire for Saturday night.
Squeeze! That was the shout coming from the Edison Tigers dugout when Aaron Vallez put down a bunt up the first base line.
After a nearly five-month hiatus, the LoanMart Madera Speedway saw some action in its season opener.
The Stallion Nation Wrestling Club will take final sign-ups at 5 p.m. Thursday in the Madera South wrestling room.
Thomas Jefferson Middle School seventh grade pitcher A.J. Martinez tossed a perfect game Monday in a 10-0 victory over Rio Vista-Fresno.

This photo caught my eye the second I saw it in the group of submissions to this page. So its definitely something that I feel is a beautiful piece. I love the color selection you decided to go with, along with angle and pose. My only issue with the photo is the extreme soft focus, I believe if you were a bit more closed on your f-stop the shot would have seemed to flow better. More of her lower area in focus, just slightly... still not in focus but less of an extreme. This is actually my first critique, I was only planning to comment but I figured id offer my own friendly words of encouragement. Well done! Regardless.
