Skip to comments.Amish Mafia Reality Show Blasted As Pure Fiction
Posted on 12/27/2012 6:50:42 AM PST by PJ-Comix
The Amish Mafia reality show claims to show a small group of protectors within the Amish community who drive cars and blackmail bishops.
And its complete fiction, critics say.
Amish Mafia, which is being billed as a reality show, debuts on the Discovery Channel in December. It explores the world of Lebanon Levi and his gang of three men, Jolin, John and Alvin, the Patriot-News noted.
The show starts out with a disclaimer that the Amish church denies that the group exists, and the episode then goes into interviews and re-enactments of the gang as they drink, drive cars, and gamble. Experts who understand the Amish community say that the Amish Mafia reality show is nothing like reality at all.
When I first saw the trailer [for the show], I thought maybe it was a Saturday Night Live skit on reality television because it was so far fetched, said Donald Weaver-Zercher, a professor at Elizabethtown College and expert on the Amish. My sense is this Amish mafia is about as real as the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company in The Office.
Another expert said after studying the Amish for 20 years, hes heard nothing about a mafia or anything even resembling it.
But the Amish Mafia reality show may be trying to cash in on a suddenly popular religious group. In April, National Geographic aired a 10-part series called Amish: Out of Order, that showed people who had left the search. TLC aired a similar show in September, Breaking Amish, which followed four Amish and one Mennonite who moved to New York City and experimented with drinking, drugs, and sex.
The Discovery Channel acknowledges that the scenes in the Amish Mafia reality show are re-enactments, ABC News notes, but claims the stories are all true.

Re-enactments of FICTION. I watched several hours of "Amish Mafia" last night and while it is entertaining it is also laughably fake. I mean would a real "mafia" allow cameras to record them selling liquor without a license? In real life, the state authorities would shut that operation down pronto. And that Merwyn guy from Ohio? So over the top ridiculous that you just have to laugh about it.
Swedish Mafia? Or how about a show called "Monk Mafia" in which a group of Benedictine Monks protect their territory for the sales of their brandy.
The Discovery Channel.
The same network that brings us 'Moonshiners'.
"Moonshiners" where the cops are desperately looking for the Moonshiners yet all they have to do is turn on the tube to find out who and where to bust them.
Reminds me of a Weird Al song.
I do barter and you have to trade for stuff in roughly the same value range. Like I sometimes trade a couple dozen bottles of body wash for a bottle of Grey Goose.
I do have to admit I like the sound of the name of the Amish boss guy: Lebanon Levi. I hope that is not fake.
the whole purpose of these shows is to denigrate people who follow their faith.
Meanwhile, the Amish, who don't own TV's, wonder what the heck we're taking about.
Bingo! Told my wife this last night. It's all part of the commie agenda.
No one expects the Amish Inquisition?
I'm predicting a HUGE tourist boom in Lancaster, PA. Gullible tourists will want to meet Levi and his Amish Mafia. Want to bet that there will be tons of Amish Mafia trinkets for sale in that area? Oh, maybe an episode of the Amish Mafia knocking over a stand selling cheap Chinese Amish Mafia imports.
Those who assign "reality" to so-called "reality TV" are way short of the requisite number of brain cells for meaningful functionality. They're the ultimate in trash TV.
I remember one scene that had me laughing in Shipshewana. In his backyard I spotted a guy decked out in Old Order Amish black clothing sitting atop a power lawn mower.
These so-called reality shows are a hoot. I like the Moonshiners for their utter incompetence. They work so hard and produce so little and all in secret with only the television audience watching.
I think we are in for a lot of inadvertent laughs when the next season of "Barter Kings" starts up again. BTW, you can get great deals via bartering but it takes a bit of time and would look boring if you broadcast the negotiations. As an example, years ago I bought a Sony tape recorder at a yard sale for 10 bucks. Then I traded it for an Olivetti Ball Electric typewriter about a week later. Then about a week after that, I traded it for roundtrip plane tickets from L.A. to Fort Lauderdale (this was back when you could travel under someone else's name without being immediately arrested). Yes, it was a great deal but you would have loooong periods of dead screen time in between. Those barters don't all conveniently happen in the space of a day.
So THATS where that "Aliens" internet meme came from!
I've seen the picture a thousand times; "I'm not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens.", but never knew it was from some dopey "reality" TV show.
I'm hoping they NEVER come back with "Extreme Couponing." The result of that show is that it made couponing more difficult. Yes, I still get great deals but you really have to do a lot of research and planning. I remember when BOGO coupons were common and now we rarely seem them any more. I blame the show.
:: this Amish mafia is about as real as the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company in The Office. ::
Soooooooooooooooo...why do I have a ream of Dunder Mifflin copy paper on my desk and a full carton in the supply cabinet?
Reminds me of an old joke..
What is this, "Clip clop, clip clop, bang bang, clip clop, clip clop..."
An Amish drive by shooting.
You guys are mostly right, but the "discovery" channel wants us TV sheeple to think they are a pure documentary informative medium without a ratings care in the world.
The truth is the only real "reality" show that comes close to reality is Survivorman and even Les stages for dramatiic effect.
Did someone say Couponing???
The only reality show worth watching is Duck Dynasty.
In Discovery Channel's popular television show "Amish Mafia," the lead character, Lebanon Levi, is portrayed as a sort-of Amish Vito Corleone.
"Lebanon Levi is the cops," another character, Esther, says in one of the episodes. "He is the courthouse, he is the bank and he is the insurance company."
Karin Meacham is making the most of her Lancaster city store's 15 minutes of fame delivered in an unmarked envelope by "Amish Mafia."
Visitors to Art & Glassworks, 319 N. Queen St., are greeted at the front door by a sign bearing a photo of Levi and the faux warning "This store is protected by Lebanon Levi."
"We're just having fun with it," said Meacham, who owns the store along with her husband, Gary Ziffer.
Meacham said Ziffer made the sign after a recent episode of "Amish Mafia" in which one of Levi's henchmen, Alvin, is seen exiting Art & Glassworks carrying a plain white envelope.
As that clip is playing, Levi talks about how he makes money by collecting rent from various properties he owns in "the community."
In exchange for that rent, Levi says he provides protection to the store owners although he never indicates what they might need protection from.
The main Art & Glassworks sign over the store's front door is not visible in the show clip, but there's no mistaking the storefront, with its colorful trim and windows filled with glass artwork.
"The scene before, they were talking about how they protect Lancaster businesses, and then the next scene is they're coming out of our store with an envelope," Meacham said.
"I went, 'Oh my gosh, that is the funniest thing I've ever seen. Our store protected by Amish?'"
Spoiler alert here Meacham said she does not actually pay protection money to Lebanon Levi.
Nor does Levi own the building.
County property records show Ziffer and Meacham have owned their store building since 1989.
Meacham and store worker Jackie Kissel remember the scene being shot last summer, but they played no part in it and didn't know at the time what the footage was for.
They've already had that episode. I'm not kidding.
I actually did have a good idea for a reality show episode in which everyone except a few know it is fake. You know Tony and Tina's wedding? It's supposedly an Italian wedding reception where the bride, groom, and most of the guests are actors. Folks paying to attend know what the deal is but just want to have fun. However, there is a large group of folks out there that DON'T know it is fake. Mainly people from other countries or new arrivals in this country like my wife and in-laws. I would love to take my wife and some of her relatives, especially her wild Cousin Chile who has never been to the USA to a Tony and Tina wedding in Las Vegas and tell them it is a wedding reception for a distant relative of mine. The "Reality" show cameras would then focus in on the reaction of my relatives since they would actually believe it is real. Could be VERY FUnnie. Cousin Chile is like a romeo (he has girlfriends all over the Andes) so it would be FUn to see his reaction when Tina the new bride flirts outrageously with him.
"The Discovery Channel acknowledges that the scenes in the Amish Mafia reality show are re-enactments, ABC News notes, but claims the stories are all true."
Fake but accurate.
I've done a bit of casual bartering and I find the "deals" made on this show are laughable. The only reason I would take something in barter was either that I wanted it for myself or knew someone who wanted the item.
But then this is television entertainment and little more so reality won't intrude too much into the "reality" shows.
"Oh, maybe an episode of the Amish Mafia knocking over a stand selling cheap Chinese Amish Mafia imports."
I'm embarrassed to admit...I watched that episode.
I'm proud to admit...that's the only one I've watched.
BTW, I wish there had been cameras on the scene on me a year ago when I attended a Venezuelan mountainside wedding of a relative of my wife's. It turned out to be hilarious. First of all the priest, Padre Roberto, was kind of like a comedian, cracking jokes during the ceremony at the family resort. I liked that so after the ceremony I said to Padre Roberto "Tu eres como un sacerdote payoso." Oops! It didn't come out like I intended and was somewhat insulting which I didn't mean at all. I meant to compliment his humorous style. Suddenly Padre Roberto dropped his smile and glared at me angrily. That really unnerved me so I tried to get on his good side by sitting next to him at the reception and hoping my Spanish didn't sabotage me again. Anyway, after a few drinks Padre Roberto and I got to be good friends (I think). Also as a result of attempting to get on Padre Roberto's good side I had too many drinks and got muy borracho. Then it was me who was acting like a payaso. I danced wildly with the women and acted in such a way that my wife angrily took me aside to a private room and read the riot act to me. The room had a balcony and everybody was yelling for the crazy American to rejoin them. I solemnly vowed to my wife that I would behave. I lied.
One thing that surprised me was that the bride was rubbing against me Lambada style while we were dancing. I thought maybe she was a stripper or something so I asked her what she did for a living. Physics professor. I chuckled because I thought she was kidding. I later found out she wasn't.
Then I started goofing around with the professional DJ there and his female assistant. They were the only ones (other than my wife) who were NOT amused with my antics which included drunkenly doing the tango with chairs.
As I later told folks I was at one point dancing with 5 women at the same time or perhaps it was only 4 women and I saw one of them double.
Oh, and my wife was horribly embarrassed by my antics but, hey, I had a great time. Would have made for great reality TV.
Is Dan Rather working for the Discovery Channel? BTW, I saw part of the movie "Gasland" last night as well. Guess what? FAKE. It turns out the water was flammable long before they had fracking there. Natural methane.
Amish behaving badly is always entertaining. The left can't afford to allow the notion that anyone might actually be true to their principles.
That's not a dopey reality show. It's a dopey UFO show.
Yeah? Next you will tell me Honey Boo Boo is not real....
btw...Amish Mafia is entertaining who the heck cares if its real...
Like Amish Mafia is fake
Congress is real?
"Who are dese people?"
He was genuinely confused so I told him:
"These are very religious people who wear black clothes, speak an old type of German language, and the women cover their heads."
The Chinese guy's face suddenly lit up as if he were enlightened:
"Ah! Dey are Yooish!"
So when does Dateline NBC do a show exposing how "Amish Mafia" is fake? And will Dan Rather be the correspondent?
My favorite "Reality" Show person is Barry on Storage Wars. He plays it strictly for laughs. Some of his jokes very risque but quite FUnnie.
With "Moonshiners" and now this garbage, reality TV has finally jumped the shark.
As show writers ran out of ideas, now we are running out of reality.
Of course, the public wouldn't buy that. There is no way they could believe that a Swedish L.C.M.S. pastor could write humorous irreverent parody lyrics at the drop of the hat. More unbelievable than an Amish Mafia.
I live in York County PA and work in northern rural Lancaster County PA and have been to Lancaster City many times, my mom was from the general area and I lived in Amish country (Elizabethtown/Hershey) as a young child before moving to Maryland. Going to downtown Lancaster City, especially the area of N. Queen Street is more like going to downtown Baltimore or Detroit, especially now days and you are not going to find many if any real Amish in Lancaster City central and speaking Pennsylvania Dutch wont help you, however speaking Spanish or Ebonics would be more helpful.
And if you go to the touristy areas of Lancaster along Route 30 near the big outlet malls and Amish themed attractions, you will probably see lots of Amish buggies and lots of Amish stores but they are mostly owned and driven by the English who are milking money from the gullible tourists. (Hint: the real Amish dont give buggy rides to tourists although they will gladly take your money and sell you their goods at their small stores and stalls at farmers markets outside of the city).
If you want to see the real Amish you have to go east, north or south of downtown Lancaster City or the commercial part of route 30; the rural areas surrounding little towns like Strasburg, Manheim, Lititz, Paradise, Bird In Hand, Blue Ball and the places in between. There is a grocery store near where I work in Manheim that has specially designated parking spaces for buggies. And yes, the Amish go to modern grocery stores. Ive also seen Amish buggies parked in front of the Home Depot and the Best Buy. Ive also seen Amish at Penn State Hershey Medical Center, and yes they go to the hospital and to the doctors when they need to, and there is actually a cottage industry of drivers, some Mennonite and some English who provide car transport when the Amish have to travel farther than practical by horse and buggy. The Amish may not own or drive cars but they will use them for transport if it is necessary and if someone else is driving. Many will also use gas powered engines, electricity and telephones in their barns and workshops for conducting business even as their homes have no electricity and the Amish who work off the farm will use mechanized equipment and ride in work trucks.
There is no such thing as the Amish Mafia. There are a few Amish kids who occasionally go bad, go wild; drink, experiment with drugs, alcohol, sex and rock and roll, usually during their Rumspringa: a few never go back to the Amish ways but surprisingly most do. Surprisingly the Amish population is growing and moving into areas like southern NJ and NE Maryland; there is a rather large and growing Amish community in Cape May County NJ.
The shows Breaking Amish and Amish Mafia are completely fake. There were even ads running not long ago in several Lancaster are newspapers advertising for extras to appear on those shows.
I started watching it and when they showed Levi's arrest record it showed that he was arrested in Shelby, Ohio, a few years ago.
I live 8 miles away from Shelby.
There is a large Mennonite/Amish population is this area. I'm going to ask around and see if anyone's heard of Levi and what his reputation is.
There's a ton of Amish around my parts (western Wisconsin), but I've never heard of anything like an Amish mafia.
BTW, did anybody else find that incident to somehow be quite hilarious?
Okay, I will be watching the final episode of "Amish Mafia" tonight. It's my guilty pleasure but the pleasure comes from the unintended laughs at the ridiculousness of it all. The funniest thing is that Amish midget who smashed the windshield of Lebanon Levi with a sledgehammer. What? He hasn't been arrested for an act of vandalism he perpetrated on national TV?

Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan:
Additional Water Quality Projects May Be Needed and Could Increase Costs
RCED-00-235: Published: Sep 14, 2000. Publicly Released: Sep 20, 2000.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-3000
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Army Corps of Engineers' Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan.
GAO noted that: (1) the Plan provides a conceptual framework for improving the quality, quantity, timing, and distribution of water in the South Florida ecosystem; (2) 24 of the Plan's 66 projects are intended, among other things, to improve the quality of water in the natural areas of the ecosystem--the remaining projects deal more with the water's quantity, timing, and distribution; (3) the water quality projects in the Plan are intended to supplement the efforts of the state, which has the primary responsibility for achieving water quality standards in Florida; (4) under the Water Resources Development Act of 1996, the Corps is allowed to include water quality projects in the Plan and equally share the costs with Florida if the projects are essential to restoring the Everglades; (5) there are too many uncertainties to estimate the number and costs of the Corps projects that will ultimately be needed to address water quality in the ecosystem; (6) as uncertainties related to implementing the Plan's projects are resolved and more information is gathered about the extent of the ecosystem's water quality problems, it is likely that modifications and additions to the Plan will be necessary and that these changes could increase the total cost of the Plan over the Corps' current estimate of $7.8 billion; (7) for example, the state is determining the level of pollutants that Lake Okeechobee can receive and what actions are needed to clean up the lake; (8) some of the actions being considered, such as dredging the lake to remove contaminated sediment, could cost over $1 billion; (9) because the lake is the source of much of the water in the ecosystem, the Corps could become involved in the effort if it determines that the lake's cleanup is essential to the ecosystem's restoration; (10) other efforts, such as the completion of feasibility studies for areas in the ecosystem not covered by the Plan, could also lead to additional water quality projects; (11) the Corps has acknowledged the level of uncertainty in the Plan and has included a process for incorporating project modifications and additions in its future reports to Congress; (12) it has not, however, included a means for reporting: (a) cumulative changes in projects and costs for the Plan as a whole; and (b) the progress being made in implementing the Plan; and (13) such information will be important for Congress in authorizing future projects.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented

I have native (unmanaged) C++ DLLs that are being wrapped by a single C++/CLI dll (linking through the .lib files). These unmanaged C++ DLLs have quite a few classes with a ton of methods and a ton const data (e.g. strings, hex values, etc) which are defined in included headers.
But for the C++/CLI wrapper DLL its only a wrapping and marshalling layer for the native dll. However its binary size is as big as the native dll. I believe this is causing me to hit the hardcoded limit which throws the exception when it is being loaded by a C# application: System.TypeLoadException: Internal limitation: too many fields
The C# application will never use the fields defined in the headers for the native DLLs.
It was able to alleviate this issue through enabling of string pooling (shaving off a few MB), but it seems like a hack.
Why is a simple wrapper of a DLL the same size as that DLL? Is there a way where I can mark the const data such that the C# application won't load them?

Architect a no-show at library meeting
Published: Friday, August 1, 2008 at 3:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, August 1, 2008 at 1:52 p.m.
LOCKPORT -- Lafourche officials voiced accusations of deceit, verbally hammered parish-contracted architect Jay Caillouet and, in the end, made no progress in the seven-year effort to build a new Thibodaux library during a Thursday night meeting held to discuss the project.
Caillouet, who council members proposed firing on four previous occasions, did not attend the meeting. Its the 10th straight one hes missed.
Caillouet also did not supply library blueprints that were supposed to include a host of agreed upon minor changes, leading the way for Library Board members to unanimously reject approval of the plans they had yet to see.
"This was one of the reasons you held this meeting, to present the plans So you cant blame the Library Board because hes not here with the plans. And where are we at? Back to square one," said Parish Council member Daniel Lorraine.
Preliminary blueprints for the Thibodaux library were released Monday but were to undergo minor adjustments by Thursdays meeting.
Among those changes -- decided by Library Board members and Director Susanna LeBouef -- are the removal of a childrens patio, addition of a double door between meeting rooms, removal of some sidewalks and the addition of a back gate.
But another change came unexpectedly.
Board members were shown a letter at the start of the meeting from Parish President Charlotte Randolph "directing Mr. Jay Caillouet to design and allow space for an elevator shaft for future growth."
"A vision for the future would include that the library have an administration building on the grounds of the Thibodaux library," the letter states.
Its wording immediately drew concerns from council and board members, who had approved measures stating the library would be a one-story building.
Council and board members erupted, accusing the administration and Caillouet of repeatedly bypassing them.
"As a taxpayer of this parish Im appalled to see the way things have been done," said board President Jimmy Cantrelle.
During a lengthy speech, Lorraine suggested the administration is attempting to take advantage of public dollars by piggybacking its government building atop the library.
"Its easy to let the library tax money pay for all the stuff the parish has," he said, shortly before fellow council member Rodney Doucet welcomed Lorraine back to his seat with a high five.
Crystal Chiasson, parish administrator, said the elevator-shaft proposal requires only a block of cement that wouldnt encroach on other plans, adding its "not a directive, just a thought process."
"Its a directive. Its not a process," said library board member John Brandon. "It even says, 'is directing. "
The proposal led Doucet to measure the scaled blueprints with a ruler, which revealed the building to be 32 feet high.
But no one had approved that height.
"Ive never seen a one-story building thats 32 feet," he said. "This is not pointing fingers at the administration. Were trying to get away from the lies and deception."
Cantrelle eventually slammed his gavel and demand an orderly meeting.
"Hollering at each other is not going to get it done," he said.
When tempers subsided officials said their differences, which repeatedly emerge during talks of the Thibodaux library, generally stem from a lack of communication with Caillouet.
The deadline for the librarys completion -- set by the council two months ago -- is about 16 months away. Theres no penalty if Caillouet misses the deadline.
When asked what council members would do if Caillouet misses it, Lorraine quipped, "Theyll probably give him a raise. He does what he wants."

The problem is that some publications make a compelling case why many of these stocks still have further to fall.
Writing for Fortune, Senior Editor Stephen Gandel argues that many leading tech stocks simply aren't generating the kind of double-digit earnings growth they are famous for -- the kind that helped them justify their double-digit price-to-earnings multiples.

"Back in 2001, analysts were predicting that the companies that then made up the Nasdaq 100 would boost their bottom lines by 34% over the following year. These days, analysts are projecting a more modest 10% growth in earnings among Nasdaq's 100 largest companies."
Gandel writes that investors who bought into technology stocks in early 2001, almost a year after they had been falling out of a belief they were picking up a bargain, didn't get one. "The Nasdaq 100 fell another 33% that year," he writes. "Today's technology investors could be similarly disappointed."
Given that most tech stocks haven't fallen nearly that much, Gandel's point might be even stronger today.
Meanwhile, David Trainer, a managing partner with Novo Capital Management, a Brentwood, Tenn.-based fund shop, argues that "exploding content costs" will continue to put pressure on Netflx's troubled shares.
He argues that the stock is worth shorting even after losing a quarter of its value in the past month.
"In 2009, Netflix earned [after-tax profits] of $119 million so over the past five years NFLX has grown after-tax profits by just $29 million, or 4% compounded annually," Trainer writes. "This slow profit growth is largely due to two factors: rapidly rising content costs and the decline of Netflix's high-margin DVD rental service."
Judging by Netflix's 2013 annual report, Trainer writes, "it does not look like either of these trends will reverse in the future."
Trainer adds that last November, "we predicted that Netflix's bottom line would find itself in trouble as costs rise because creating original content and hosting a content library are extremely expensive. Netflix is merely a delivery platform, hardly unique anymore. The company has many competitors now, many of whom are much better competitively positioned. For example, Amazon is currently considering launching a streaming television and music service in the same vein."
Trainer points out that much of the Netflix bull case rests on the opportunity for international expansion. "It is true that Netflix's international subscriber base grew by an impressive 79%, and it is also true that there is presently much room for growth here," he adds. "However, the same cost and pitfalls I have described above are not exclusive to Netflix's U.S. operations, and additional hidden costs exist in expanding to international markets"
Trainer concludes by noting that in the past six months, insiders have sold off over one million shares, or 45% of their holdings. "If this level of dumping does not serve as a warning to investors, I am not sure what will," he concludes.
For risk-taking investors leery of tech stocks, even after their recent fall, there are always junk bonds.
As the Financial Times puts it, "Lured by the higher returns and low corporate default rates, investors have lined up in scores to buy record amounts of the securities, which in turn have been sold at increasingly higher prices and with looser standards of protection for the lenders." (A subscription is required.)
The problem is that the junk market has now reached a lofty level in terms of valuation, "raising concern of an asset bubble in some quarters, but some fund managers and analysts say there is still more to be mined, so long as investors know where to look."
The FT makes a few suggestions that are worth considering.

32 reviews | 4.2 out of 5
I just upgraded from Windows XP and was looking for an external hard drive to store a total backup of the Windows 7 Home Premium OS, plus all files. The new computer came with a one terabyte hard drive, so I needed something at least that large. As soon as I saw this 3 terabyte unit by Seagate with a usb 3.0 connection, I felt that I couldn't go wrong. The unit arrived a day earlier than the anticipated date, and was well packaged/protected. (The packaging by Seagate, alone, provided substantial protection. The additional shipping packaging just added to it). Upon receiving the unit, I looked at the brief pictorial instructions and simply plugged it in and connected it to the computer. This thing is literally plug 'n' play. With the imaging backup software already installed, you just make a few clicks and off you go. It's so quiet, that if not for the blinking blue light indicating that it was running, you would wonder if anything was happening. I'm very pleased with the Seagate unit.
Wow, I got a consistent 160MB Write speed and 170MB Read speed on this for a 1TB folder that took just 2 hours.
i had this for a month it is what i want to have for my files and others' that i have sitting arround the house and some others that i can think about put some more on my external hard drive and yes i would to see some friends and family to use this for their home computer and or laptop.
The hard drive comes equipped with the Windows software; if you are on Mac as I am, you will first need to go through the pains of using the Disk Utility to format it (your Mac will see the drive but you will not be able to write on it otherwise). Meets expectations - Good, because this detail was not mentioned in the product description.
That little thing done, the disk works well.
The missing part is the on-off button; hence the ease of use grade, Good.
Will never buy another Seagate product
not even a year yet and lost everything on the drive
This was a project to expand storage and limit extra drives. Had it set up and partitioned into 3 drives in minutes. Haven had a problem since.
As I understand Seagate bought out Maxtor but why aren't they using their excellent software? I have a 250GB Maxtor Plus One drive I use for backup which works beautifully.
For the initial save, Seagate changes ALL file dates to the saving date!! WHY? Ex: Recently I backed up my computer after a week or so with both my Maxtor and Seagate drives using USB 2.0. The Maxtor took 4-5 minutes to save the 85 files in several different folders totaling approx. 1GB. The Seagate took between 22-30 minutes!
My Maxtor saved all files with their original dates intact whereas the Seagate put the saving day's date on all files - most undesirable especially with pictures!
The Maxtor reassembles all the changes giving one exactly what one sees on their computer main drive whereas the Seagate shows only the changed/added files themselves. (Continuous Mode)
Just plug and play.
Windows 7 Pro with USB 2.0.
Bought one at St@pels online for under $100 delivered free. Great deal, watch for price wars on this item. Backward comparable USB, no software to install, easy to setup.
The Seagate expansion hard drive was SO easy to install, plug and play, and works great. Using it to store camera videos and am very pleased with it.
Exactly as I expected. Good, Reliable, Fast
Easy yo set-up and use
Good amount of storage for movies, pictures, files, etc. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on our Playstation 3 like the other external hard drive we have to watch movies which is why our rating for this product was average.
I don't mean to be "that guy", but these other reviewers have to be doing something wrong. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this drive. I plugged it in and immediately started transferring data. I've filled it up to almost 2TB already. Obviously it's a little slower running through USB 2.0, but USB 3.0 on my Dell XPS 13 is amazing. I moved over a few GB at over 200MB/s. I've got nothing bad to say about this drive.
I took my first one of these back with a bad USB 3.0 port, right out of the box. They exchanged it with no problems, but now that I have 1.6 TB stored on it, it decides to go out. Not a happy camper at all. It's well under a year old and it's all but gone. Sometimes it will mount, but usually not. When it does, the max transfer rate is about 700 KBPS. Try transferring 1.6 TB to a new drive at that speed! I think I'll give the WD a try next time.
on from out of the box non-stop for a week now, formatted for MAC and is holding about a TB of data that my main drive accesses daily, heavy traffic transferring files to and from it, turned it off for the first time after seven days, expect no issues for boot up later, comes with 1 yr warrantee, no issues so far, guarded opinion so far; good value
You shipped a very fragile item in a garmet bag as if it was a t shirts
Hard drives should be package and shipped for ultimate care ... This was just in a envelop bag no padding no help ........ Last item I order from Walmart
I could not get it to load properly and had to take it to my computer shop. Would not open nor back up my files. I was not happy.
Seagate HD are top notch in my book. It was a better performing than WD Hard drives. I chose this item over a 1 TB drive for 89.99.
Great value it fast to move files to backed the whole home network

Top-seed Isner beats Levine
By SANDRA HARWITT
Associated Press
DELRAY BEACH, Fla. — Top-seeded John Isner got past feisty Jesse Levine 7-6 (3), 5-7, 6-4 to advance to the second round of the Delray Beach International Tennis Championships on Tuesday night.
In the second set, Isner fell behind 0-15 in the eighth and 10th games, then reeled off four straight aces in both games to hold onto his serve. But Levine won the final two games of the second set to force a decisive third set.
Levine lost serve in the first game of the third set to set Isner up for the win.
"It was a long one and good one to get through," said the 15th-ranked Isner, who had 28 aces in the match. "I anticipate I'll get better going forward.
"But a wins a win and I haven't had many recently and I'm just trying to get this train going."
Fourth seeded Kei Nishikori, who won last week's Memphis title, retired with a back injury against 150th-ranked Ivo Karlovic of Croatia. Karlovic was leading 5-4 in the first set when Japan's best player abandoned the match.
Seventh-seeded Feliciano Lopez of Spain, who lost to Nishikori in the Memphis final, pulled out of the tournament today with a left wrist injury.
Nishikori became the third player to retire from first-round matches at Delray this week.
Earlier in the day, second-seeded Tommy Haas of Germany moved into the second round when Igor Sijsling of the Netherlands retired with an injured left ankle after the two split sets. Sijsling won the first 7-5, Haas the second 6-4.
On Monday night, Michael Russell retired in the second set of his match against fellow American and third-seeded Sam Querrey.
A frustrated Sijsling belted three balls into the stands, hitting a spectator with one of the balls. He received a code violation warning, lost his serve which evened the score at one set apiece, and retired from the match.
"What a strange match," Haas said. "At 4-all, first point, I saw him falling to the ground. Sometimes you don't know how to react when someone is injured, but he looked like he was in pain.
"The first couple of points went my way and he started to smash balls out of the stadium and hit a spectator. You never want to win a match like that. It's not a proud win for me."
Haas will next face Denis Istomin of Uzbekistan. Istomin defeated Benjamin Becker of Germany 6-7 (3), 6-4, 7-5.
Qualifier Ernests Gulbis of Latvia, who won first ATP tour title at Delray in 2010, beat American veteran James Blake 6-1, 6-4.
Ryan Harrison lost to qualifier Daniel Munoz-De La Nava of Spain 6-2, 1-6, 6-3, squandering a 3-1 lead in the final set. Jack Sock, a wildcard into the main draw, beat Mathew Ebden of Australia 6-3, 6-3.

Insane, Non-Stop Action packed game.What I really liked about this game is it's non-stop action that keeps you busy with your keyboard and mouse. There'r cinematics which only last for 30-45 sec (only time you'll get to rest your fingers). Graphics and other visual effects are awesome to watch and reminds you of graphics in Borderland but much better that that.

Great game! Got it in 7 days with 2 free games!Very cool game, if you're into survivalistic FPS :). I loved the gameplay. There is code in EPIC edition to download additional content and play Epic online. The skillshots are a funny concept and nice too.

This is a gorgeous game!Bulletstorm for the xbox 360 is one of those severely under rated FPS games, mainly due to poor marketing by the companies. This is one of the if not the best looking games on the xbox 360. Period. you have to see it to believe how beautiful the graphics look. It plays great as well with a near smooth frame rate. The action is over the top and hilarious too! Lovers of Halo and Gears of War please do yourselves a favour and get this game.

Hopeless GameThis is one of the most hopeless game that EA has produced.Never go for it.The game is absolutely stud.Only the story is good.Instead go for BF3 or BF4 or Titanfall .

A foul-mouthed, hilarious, satisfying romp!Bulletstorm takes itself very seriously about the fact that it doesn't take itself very seriously. It is full of toilet humour and innuendo, and it is unabashedly bloody and creative about the way in which the first person shooter player can kill. There is no doubt that Bulletstorm is something unique in the FPS landscape. The points system rewards you for creative gameplay, the visuals are stunning, thanks to Unreal Engine 3, and the controls are spot on, not too responsive and well calibrated for the kind of gameplay in it. There isn't much of a story but what little is there holds together … (Expand)

Most Fun shooter yetI got this game when it was released. It was buggy as hell then but now it is patched. So when I played this game again glitch it was great fun ride.

Rated 4.4 out of 5 by 5 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by johneliot Best product I've found It's been a long time since I've had to spray for fleas. I had a left over can from at least 10 years ago. Used it up and then went looking for another. Could not find this brand anywhere. Finally went on line and came to this site. Great price. After it dries there is no smell. It really does break the flea cycle. April 23, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by MooMoo Works! I use this spray in my truck and it works every time. I did try spraying in my large bedroom once, and it did not work as well, however, admittedly I was not able to spray as much per square foot in the room as I was able to in my truck. Will be more generous in spraying the room next time, as soon as I can find my respirator! November 27, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by Packmama It did not work! I have tried several products on a flea infestation that we have. This was the least effective. It did not work at all. Tiny fleas were alive & biting after 24 hours. September 3, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by DreamChaser1 KNOCK OUT REALLY KNOCKS THEM OUT!!! GREAT PRODUCT! REALLY WORKS!!! LET ME JUST SAY THAT IT'S CALLED KNOCK OUT FOR A REASON....BECAUSE IT REALLY KNOCKS OUT THOSE FLEAS!! AND IT LAST QUIET A WHILE! AND THE SMELL AIN'T BAD EITHER! SUPER EASY TO SPRAY AND COVERS LARGE AREAS QUICKLY!! LAST A LONG TIME IF YOU HAVE A SMALL HOME LIKE I DO! February 18, 2015

I'm afraid to go there.
I'm afraid they'll be playing a Belle & Sebastian record in its entirety and I just... can't... do that.
Why does the review say "capitol hill" when that is the Central District?
Oui. They lack power outlets for laptops at the moment (there's only one, at the bar) but I'm told more are coming...
Cold chicken, mayonnaise, and a watercress salad. It was lunch heaven. And Eric and Michael made a pretty sight.
what mark said. also in the house: staffers from machiavelli, a table of la spiga employees, and the always lovely nisha from fleurish.
definitely NOT the place to hit while on a walk of shame home the morning after. unless you're still drunk.

I am working on an app, that I figure the best way to pass dates and times around is to use a unix timestamp as in the end of the whole process I have going on it makes an ajax call to PHP that passes these times to be used in mysql its easier to convert the timestamp to datetime format overall.
Currently I am being passed a date like
9/9/12 1:00 PM this is a date I have no control over the initial formatting. What I need to do is take this date/time format and convert it into a unix timestamp so I can work with it server side later when I pass it to a server with PHP on it. Ive been looking for a while now and I can't seem to find an answer for this, more so one that involves taking a specific time/date and passing that to something javascript side and converting it to a unix timestamp

CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Indians have reinstated infielder Jason Donald from the 15-day disabled list and optioned him to Triple-A Columbus.
Donald was in line to be the club's starting third baseman before he broke his left hand in spring training when he got hit by a pitch on March 4. In his absence, Jack Hannahan has staked a claim to the everyday job at third, playing solid defense and hitting better than expected.
Cleveland has won 10 straight games at home and leads the AL Central by 4½ games.
The Indians also got back infielder Josh Rodriguez from Pittsburgh. The club lost him when he was selected by the Pirates in December's Rule 5 draft.
The 26-year-old was 1-for-12 to start the season with Pittsburgh. Rodriguez has also been optioned to Columbus.

Sorry, this item sold. Have metalinkworx make something just for you, or try these other items:
This is a candy purple and silver Abstract Aluminum and Steel Metal clock that measures 12 x 12 x 1 . It has a ground metal design, painted with candy purple and clear coated, buffed and polished for maximum shine and durability. Since each clock is custom made, they may differ slightly from the original picture. Each clock is equiped to easily be hung on your wall. Pictures do no justice, as you walk by they look 3D and vibrant. I suggest track lighting or great natural lighting to enhance the beauty of each piece.

I'm not much of a guacamole fan, but we had 15 attending one of my monthly groups, & I knew they'd enjoy it, so . . . . What I DID like about this version of the stuff is that included in it were the corn, onion, shallot & tomato, giving it the kind of flavor that I could enjoy as well! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this fall's round of Pick A Chef]
Refreshing and unusual. We have never put corn in our salsa before but it was colorful and good. Made for PAC 2011 Fall.
