I think the use of this post to other campaigns is that outlines an academic treatment of a popular academic text. Being that it is a history, then perhaps it could easily be translated into another world with a view word changes. We want the characters in our worlds and campaigns to have access to a culture so that they can hang their personality quirks on it and to give them a chance to rally around or against something. A book of the elite such as this which appears similar to The Persian Expedition, Parallels, War with Hannibal or the Mort de Arthur would be useful prop for a character.
However, I think this write up does not go far enough and that it lacks any real hook. I understand the value of vagueness in RPG writing and I know that something suggestive is often more useful then something specific, but this item is too far into the specific realm to be suggestive. Yet it also lacks details and a thesis, and therefore we come away with little sense of the intended or actual meaning of this work to the people that might right. I hope that CP comes back to give us a more complete picture, because I like the idea behind this post.
I read this, I thought it was interesting and I enjoyed the details.
I would have enjoyed to see some more specific notes on their culture and how they relate to each other personally. You learn a lot from society by who they consider to be a crimminal and celebratity and it is hard to get a feeling for a culture when everything is so even keel. If you spend you write a story about life at sea no reader will except that it was all smooth sailing.
Damn useful sub and perfect use of the medium.
Wow! This is a really well put together list with enough but not too much detail. Did depleted uranium not make it on the list? Did I miss it. Is it lumped with some other group?
of the tables I have seen this one isn't bad, most of the items are reasonable and suggest at larger story behind them which what we are all about right?
Well now we are getting into the meat of this world. "The World of Neyathis has been populated by four major 'invasions' of humans from other worlds, including our (or an alternate) Earth, and so many of the peoples are strong analogs to known cultural groups" Did I some how miss this in the world of Neyathis write up. This discussion of why you wrote the world this way should be more prevalent if you are going write these meta-subs. But this is a neat idea and it us fun as a fellow dork to see why and how you wrote this.
However, this strikes me as no more developed than your Aldruku sub.
"their kingdom was shattered after a terrible defeat by their enemy" is this opposed to a a terrible defeat by their friends...
"As a dead people, they are little more then backstory, the creators of ruins and odd artifacts."

After a short time they started sending me copies of applications that they had submitted to these Corporations for them to aprove a grant. This went on for several months. Finally I get a call from JRS Business Solutions saying they were representing Turnaround Business Development Group, Inc. They informed me that I had finally been approved for a grant, and that I had to wire them $9,000.00 to cover expences and I would get a grant of $468,000.00.
I questioned the amount, (should have been $6000.00) but I was told that $9000.00 was the amount needed. So I sent them the money. After several weeks of not hearing anything I called Turnaround Business Dev. Group, Inc. to check on what the hold up was. They informed me that they never heard of JRS Business Solutions, and they did not know anything about anyone representing them and certinally have not received $9,000.00, but they would check into it and get back to me.
After several weeks I called to check on any progress, and was told the whole situation was under investigation. After, I guess a couple of months, I was told that several people were in jail and they were in the process of trying to get my money back. That was the last thing I heard anything from them for probably 6 months. Finall I got a call from Turnaround Business Development Group, Inc. and was informed that I was finally approved to receive $268,000.00 and among other things one of their requirsments was to donate a percentage of the grant to a charity of my choice. I had to fill out all kinds of forms to submit to the IRS to create a nonprofit organization that could be used for donations to a charity.
I was told that it would take the IRS 60 to 90 days to get approved. I sent the forms in April, 2011, and I finally got a letter from the IRS in November, 2011 requesting additional information. I did not understand exactilly what the were looking for so I Tried to call Turnaround. Kept getting a bussy signal after a couple of weeks trying. Finally got a recording the number is no longer in service. I also tried JRS Business Solutions, and Capital Business Services, Inc., and got the same response, "no longer in service".

Whether at the property, company or association level, an environmental program cannot be successful without a leader championing the cause.

CHIANG RAI, THAILAND—John Roberts may be the only person on the planet to work for a resort company and have the word "elephant" in his title. When your company has resorts in areas where elephants either roam free in the wild or captive in city streets, it is easier to understand the need for a Director of Elephants & Conservation Activities. For Anantara Hotels, Resorts & Spas, having someone dedicated to elephant protection aligns with its goal of creating luxury travel experiences that also benefit the local communities where each hotel and resort are located. Anantara Hotels, Resorts & Spas is a brand of Minor International. Minor International is the largest single donor of the Golden Triangle Asian Elephant Foundation. Roberts has long had an interest in elephants, having seen his first one in the wild in 1999 in Nepal. Since that time he has come to understand the highly complex state of the elephant in Asia—there are more than 4,000 non-wild elephants in Thailand, for example.
NORWALK, CONN.—Russ Rogg, President and CEO of Metroflor Corp., along with Harlan Stone, Halstead and Group CEO, announced the appointment of Rochelle Routman, LEED AP, O+M, as the first Chief Sustainability Officer for Metroflor and Halstead International. Routman will oversee product development, customer service and regulatory aspects in a collaborative fashion to define the greatest potential for environmental leadership. She will be based at the company's Calhoun, Ga. campus. Rochelle brings over 30 years' experience as a sustainability and environmental professional. At Lockheed Martin Aeronautical Systems, where she served as Pollution Prevention and Environmental Safety Coordinator in the 1990s, she established a "green team" to focus on addressing environmental issues through proactive program initiatives rather than mere regulatory compliance: the precursor of what we now call sustainability.
ATLANTA—It is no coincidence that big projects and accolades seem to gravitate toward Wes Shirley. The Director of Engineering at the Grand Hyatt Atlanta in Buckhead is always looking for something new to elevate the guest experience, cut costs and reduce environmental impact at the same time. Shirley, who fell in love with building and operating buildings at an early age, has been the driver behind projects such as a 50,000-gallon rainwater harvesting system and a 20-panel solar thermal system. This past week he accepted an award for the hotel as part of the Atlanta Better Buildings Challenge. Participants in the Challenge pledge to reduce energy and water consumption by 20 percent by 2020. As Director of Engineering at the 439-room hotel, Shirley oversees a team of 12 engineers. He and the hotel's controller act as coaches of the green team which consists of one manager from every department.
PORTLAND, ORE.—Scott Lipscomb is always trash talking. It is his job, literally, as Environmental Coordinator at McMenamins in Portland, Ore. If there is something that can be donated or recycled, it is Lipscomb's job to make it happen. McMenamins has provided Lipscomb with many challenges since he began working for the company in December 1992. Then, McMenamins had just 12 locations. Today it has 70 pubs and restaurants, 25 breweries, two distilleries, a winery, and 10 hotels. "I started as a regular pubster," Lipscomb says. "After a couple of years the person handling the recycling program for our company was leaving. I have always been a proponent of recycling so I applied and got the position (recycling coordinator). In the beginning I would work 20 to 25 hours a week picking up recycling at the locations in the Portland area and our beer truck would bring back recyclables that were not recycled locally. I would then recycle those materials here in Portland at several different recycling centers. As the company grew we changed my job title to Environmental Coordinator."
BRIDGETOWN, BARBADOS—The Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO) has appointed Dominican native Amanda Charles as Sustainable Tourism Specialist. Charles will coordinate and implement the CTO's sustainable tourism program aimed at enhancing the development, growth, quality, competitiveness and sustainability of Caribbean tourism. Charles is a tourism professional with several years of experience, having worked most recently as the adviser to the Directorate of Sustainable Tourism at the Association of Caribbean States (ACS) in Port of Spain, Trinidad & Tobago, a position she held for five years. While there Charles coordinated the directorate's sustainable tourism program and managed the financial, technical and logistical aspects of the directorate's projects and activities. She also worked as a Tourism Specialist Consultant at the Organization of American States (OAS) Department of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism in Washington, D.C. and as a Project Consultant at the OAS Department of Sustainable Development. A CTO Foundation scholarship winner in 2006 and 2007, Charles is a graduate of George Washington University in Washington, D.C.
RALEIGH, N.C.—Later this year, the NC GreenTravel Initiative will turn five years old. It is very possible that 200 travel-related businesses in North Carolina will be participating in the program by that point. When the program launched toward the end of 2011, its focus was on hotels and restaurants. Today, led by Tom Rhodes, NC Green Travel Initiative Program Manager, many kinds of travel-related businesses have been recognized as green businesses—attractions, museums, parks, vacation rentals, convention centers, festivals and other travel-oriented establishments. "Although I wear several 'hats', the majority of my workday involves tasks associated with the green travel program," Rhodes says. Businesses participating in the NC GreenTravel Initiative first fill out an application geared toward their type of business. There is even an application customized for breweries. There is no cost to participate. Applications are reviewed by Rhodes. While there is no mandatory site visit in order to become a certified business, Rhodes says there are 62 retirees in North Carolina who volunteer their time to do site assessments covering water, waste and energy.
BANGKOK—Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas announced that Jeffery Smith has joined the group in the role of Director of Sustainability. In his new role, Smith will ensure that Six Senses remains at the leading edge of sustainable tourism practices. These include environmental performance of each property, support for the preservation of natural and cultural heritage, and enhancing social and economic benefits to local communities in destinations where Six Senses operates. Smith joins Six Senses with 11 years of broad experience of delivering green programs, with internal and external engagement. His most recent role was in the delivery of solar energy solutions for Canadian company Solar Brokers. Prior to this position, he was based in Thailand as Projects Director for Global Vision International where he provided leadership to meet regional objectives for sustainable development. This followed a four-year tenure in the progressive rolls of Sustainability Consultant, Manager and Project Manager for Elephant Nature Park, a sanctuary with tourism components located in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Smith's wide experience also includes roles in environmental engineering and ecosystem risk management in his native Canada. He holds a Master of Environment and Sustainability.
BETHESDA, MD.—For years now Host Hotels & Resorts has been one of the lodging industry's leading REITs when it comes to energy management, carbon emissions reduction, water management and overall sustainability performance. In 2015 Host Hotels & Resorts was one of two NAREIT Leader in the Light winners in the Lodging/Resorts category. In 2014 Host was on the CDP A List—a list of companies around the world doing the most to combat climate change. Being recognized as a leader not only among REITs but throughout the lodging industry is the result of the work of a team of talented industry veterans, one of whom is Rick Werber, Senior Vice President, Engineering and Sustainability | Development, Design and Construction for Host Hotels & Resorts. Werber has been instrumental in guiding investment in capital projects that have resulted in significant savings for the Bethesda, Md.-based REIT that currently has 115 hotels in its fold. Adding value to the Host portfolio is the focus of Werber, who first worked in lodging as a chief engineer trainee at the Newton Marriott in Newton, Mass.
NASHVILLE, TENN.—Arizona volunteer Rashmi Bhakta was awarded P&G Professional's "Community Hotelier of the Year Award" in conjunction with the Asian American Hotel Owners Assn. (AAHOA). Bhakta was chosen as the grand prize winner after submitting an essay detailing her participation with and support of Child Crisis Arizona. The charity will receive a $10,000 award in Bhakta's name. Bhakta, who was not able to attend in person, was recognized on stage during the 2016 AAHOA Annual Convention and Trade Show awards presentation at the Nashville Convention Center. Amiti Bhow, who nominated Bhakta for the honor, accepted the recognition on Bhakta's behalf. The Community Hotelier of the Year Award recognizes an AAHOA member who demonstrates dedication and care for their community and expresses a desire to make a positive impact in the future with a $10,000 donation to the winner's charity of choice. Bhakta supports Child Crisis Arizona by organizing fundraising events like the Family Garba Night which had both philanthropic and cultural goals and raised more than $9,000 for the organization.
HIGHLANDS, N.C.—Old Edwards Hospitality Group announces the appointment of Ezra Gardiner as Head Farmer. Ezra will oversee Old Edwards Gardens at Sequoia Lake and The Gardens at Cherrywood including greenhouses and hoop houses. Ezra will be responsible for cultivating vegetables and herbs to support the culinary offerings throughout Old Edwards, including Madison's Restaurant and Wine Garden, the Spa Café, the country inn at Half-Mile Farm and the Grill Room at Old Edwards Club, as well as weddings and special events. Gardiner was raised in Ashe County, N.C., an agricultural community of small homesteads and sustenance farming where growing things for aesthetic and for the tables and cellars was a part of daily life for most. Gardiner says, "North Carolina is a great place to grow vegetables, especially here in Highlands—one of the most ecologically diverse places in the world. Our latitude is similar to places like northern Egypt, meaning that we have a lot of sunlight even in the winter and that we can grow under minimal protection throughout the year.

With the Liberal government patting themselves on the back for bringing down auto insurance rates by an average of over four per cent over six months, the NDP says things aren't quite what they seem to be.MPP Jagmeet Singh says, in most cases, people aren't seeing this rate drop. He says demanding on when your insurance renewal date may be, some drivers will only start to save in the summer. The Financial Services Commission of Ontario (FSCO) released the numbers yesterday, with the Liberal government claiming it's on track to a promised average eight per cent drop over a year. This was part of a staggered approach to an NDP budget demand last spring to decrease rates by 15 per cent. The Liberals say that will happen over two years.On if his party will keep this at the back of mind when supporting this year's minority Liberal budget, Singh says it will be a factor.

Posted on 05/02/2007 11:43:41 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
Isaiah Washington, who came under fire after using an anti-gay slur, will appear in a public service announcement on behalf of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation and the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network.
"We're gonna have - I want to say at least two versions of it at this point. We may broaden our message a little," the actor's publicist, Howard Bragman, told The Associated Press in a phone interview Wednesday.
Washington ran into trouble at the Golden Globe Awards in January after he used an anti-gay slur during a backstage press conference while denying he'd used it previously against "Grey's Anatomy" castmate T.R. Knight.
People magazine reported last October that Washington had allegedly used the slur during an on-set dustup with co-star Patrick Dempsey.
Knight said soon after the incident that he was gay.
After being criticized by GLAAD, a gay and lesbian advocacy group, and the ABC network, Washington issued an apology and sought counseling.
Bragman said ABC, which is owned by The Walt Disney Co., was planning to shoot the ad in the next few weeks.
A call to ABC seeking comment wasn't immediately returned.
Bragman said Washington, 43, plans to return to "Grey's Anatomy" next year.
"We've heard nothing to the contrary, and we have no plans to the contrary," Bragman said.
The Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network seeks to ensure that schools safely accommodate students of all sexual orientations.
Oh goody, did he complete his "right-think" indoctrination already?
What a faggot!
How did these deviants get so much power?
"O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother."
Working title: "Grease Anatomy"
The gaystapo broke his sorry ass really quick.
Fagg*t rehab ping!
Weird, isn't it? They're roughly 2% of the population, and they have the rest of us jumping through hoops like trained animals.
not that there's anything wrong with that.
They scared him real good.....
TR Knight was 'out' long before this happened, the article is wrong about that aspect.
We watch the show, and I can't help but laugh every time they have Knights character in a sex scene with one of the hotties. I wonder if he gets the 'shakes' like the guy that was the head of the 'Brady Bunch' did.
You beat me to it! I was going to say that he time in the liberal re-education camp turned him into a real faggot.
What an Edwards.
The more I read about that show, the more I hate it. And yes, IW really wussed out on this one.
Rehab really worked on Washington! He's going to marry a guy next.
He better. If he wants to stay in acting, he must knucle under to the Pink Stalinists. Simple as that.
This is P.C. absurdity
I guess they suceeded at rehab. I guess he does follow up projects every now and then to ensure he doesn't "relapse".
The man needs rehab. He needs to do penance for his sin of not believing in the goodness of homosexuality. Anything that is said against homos is bad bad bad.
I like this guy as an actor. I'm appalled he's being subjected to this crap. He slammed homosexuals it seems. And he's going to pay for that for a long time. We can't have differing opinions anymore, if we differ it's off to rehab - unless we slam Christians or those who follow the bible or some religious affiliation. Or if we hate Bush and admit he's the cause and reason for all the world's problems. Somebody has to give me a reason to continue fighting? lol.

The color layout of the board is incorrect. The orange properties (St James place, etc) are nowhere near the dark blue properties (Park Place and Broadway). However, this is probably intentional, since there are only 2 dark blue properties in panels 1 and 2, and 3 dark blue properties in panel 3.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Susmi is a purported psychologist and ghost communicator.
She claims a lot of "paranormal" abilities but never delivers.
But she is very good at the art of self-deception and reading the minds of her patients.

The new '66' registration plate comes out on Thursday 1st September 2016. We've pre-ordered hundreds of our most popular vans ready for delivery in early September, give us a call on. . .
We've got over £2.2m worth of new vans in stock ready for a very quick turnaround. These are all brand new vans pre-registered on the 29th July. . .
For all our latest industry news visit our Twitter page https://twitter.com/global_vans
We regularly update the page with any relevant news on the van leasing market.more news
The Toyota Hilux is so flexible it is the ideal choice for van leasing, because it can be used to transport people and equipment if you choose the crew cab version or more equipment if you need more of that than people – the choice is yours. But whichever you choose, you get a fabulous 4x4 off-road capability so if your work sites are often off-road, the Toyota Hilux is certainly the van leasing choice for you.
Perfect for rugged use
Van leasing doesn't often come as hardcore as this! With its high ground clearance and variable drive, the Toyota Hilux can cope with any terrain and yet is a very comfortable ride in the cab. Toyota is famous for adding extras to help safety as well as comfort and they don't fail here – with dusk sensors to switch on the headlights in low visibility, fog lamps and robust bars to protect the rear of the cab from shifting loads, they've thought of everything. The crew cab is a very generous size, too, so there are no cramped legs at the end of even a long journey. With air conditioning throughout the cab, no one is hot and sticky, either!
Safety first
The Toyota Hilux van, leased from Global Van Solutions, is one of the safest on the road, with ABS brakes and stability control to help prevent skids. Brake assist is becoming a very popular add-on in all kinds of vehicles and helps to improve braking by beginning the braking process as soon as any hazard is detected. The driver remains completely in control, but the response is quicker, preventing sharp stops, essential with heavy equipment in the back which could otherwise shift. The Hilux has a total of six airbags and this gives superlative protection in the event of an accident.

Clustering is a popular tool for exploratory data analysis. One of the major problems in cluster analysis is the determination of the number of clusters in unlabeled data, which is a basic input for most clustering algorithms. In this paper we investigate a new method called DBE (Dark Block Extraction) for automatically estimating the number of clusters in unlabeled data sets, which is based on an existing algorithm for Visual Assessment of cluster Tendency (VAT) of a data set, using several common image and signal processing techniques. Basic steps include: 1) Generating a VAT image of an input dissimilarity matrix; 2) Performing image segmentation on the VAT image to obtain a binary image, followed by directional morphological filtering; 3) Applying a distance transform to the filtered binary image and projecting the pixel values onto the main diagonal axis of the image to form a projection signal; 4) Smoothing the projection signal, computing its first-order derivative, and then detecting major peaks and valleys in the resulting signal to decide the number of clusters. Our new DBE method is nearly "automatic", depending on just one easy-to-set parameter. Several numerical and real-world examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of DBE.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Much to my surprise, I went on line today to make a payment and noticed that my credit line was $0!! I called the 877 number, waited about 25 minutes to speak to a customer service person who could barely speak english and he advised me that all of the credit cards for this program were canceled. He said it was nothing I did and that I was a good customer and was in good standing. He advised that there was a letter that was sent on November 4th via US mail. He informed me that I was responsible for the balance of my account, which I have no problem with as they were my charges and then here's the whopper...he said I would still be charged a monthly maint fee and then I asked about being refunded for my annual maint fee that I was just billed for last month which he replied no. I am very upset by this and feel that it is wrong to continue to charge a maint fee for an account that is closed. I am also concerned about how this will impact my credit having a closed account with a balance. Even though this was out of my control and was and always have been in good standing. I am going to file a report with the Massachusetts Attorney General about this. Others should do the same in their respective states if they have been effected by this!

Should You Care About Occupy The Hood?
As the Occupy Wall Street protests hit day 24, people are beginning to see more and more sprinkles of color among the growing crowd of demonstrators. Not to mention the demonstrations are spreading outside of Manhattan's Financial District to Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas and other cities across the country. Despite the new additions, going to ground zero of many of these protests will likely place you in a sea of white faces.
It's this very reason that the sub-movement Occupy The Hood was born. It was started by two activist friends Malik Rhasaan, 39, from Queens, New York and Ife Johari Uhuru, 35, from Detroit, Michigan. What began as an awareness campaign to get people of color involved in Occupy Wall Street has caught on with media outlets such as BET, The Village Voice and Loop 21 documenting their story. Like the Occupy Wall Street movement, OTH is getting the word out via social media—which has proved to be quite successful. The OTH Twitter page has over 5,000 followers and their Facebook following is increasing with nearly 4,000 Facebook "Likes." They've even been in direct contact with political and academic heavyweights like California congresswoman Maxine Waters and Princeton professor Cornel West.
BE Next wants to hear from you. What do you think about Occupy The Hood? Leave your thoughts below. Also, go to the Black Enterprise Facebook page and take our daily poll.

Use of clinically annotated samples, samples from clinical trials and trials conducted within the MRF Breakthrough Consortium (MRFBC) are particularly welcomed, but not required. All Team Awards must address one of the Specific Topic Proposals (STPs) identified below. Team applications should demonstrate how the proposal will answer the selected unmet need topic. Team applications need to establish the relative contribution of each member of the team for the proposed studies. A previous record of collaboration for the proposed team is advantageous. A minimum of two Team Awards are expected to be funded in 2015.
Established Investigator Awards (EIA)
The EIAs provide funding of up to $100,000 per year for two years to established melanoma researchers, or senior researchers working in closely related fields who wish to move into melanoma research.

In 2016, the MRF will offer a CURE OM Junior Fellowship Award, funded by an educational grant from AstraZeneca. This award will provide funding of $50,000 per year for two years to a junior investigator focusing on ocular melanoma. Researchers who are beginning a research career focused on ocular melanoma and have not yet established strong federal funding for their research are eligible.
CURE OM Unite! Established Investigator Award (CURE OM Unite! EIA)
The CURE OM Unite! Campaign was launched in May 2015 to bridge the gap between patients and researchers. This one-of-a-kind EIA is directly funded by the CURE OM patient and family community. The funding has come largely through CURE OM teams in Miles for Melanoma 5k run/walks around the country, as well as all general CURE OM Unite! donations received during the campaign period. An inspired donor matched this fundraising to create the award. This award will provide funding of up to $100,000 per year for two years to an established ocular melanoma researcher. This unique opportunity will include a patient review panel in addition to the MRF's standard, expert, peer-reviewed panel, allowing the patient perspective to be considered in the critique process.

Pathways to Equity: Narrowing the Wage Gap by Improving Women's Access to Good Middle-Skill Jobs
This report addresses women's access to well-paid, growing, middle-skill jobs (jobs that do not require a bachelor's degree). It documents sex segregation in middle-skill jobs, and discusses how gender integration of good jobs could both reduce skill-shortages and improve women's economic security. The report focuses on middle-skilled "target" occupations in manufacturing, information technology, and transportation, distribution, and logistics that have high projected job openings and that typically employ few women. Using an innovative methodology based on the U.S. Department of Labor's O*Net database, Marc Bendick, Ph.D., of Bendick and Egan Economic Consultants, Inc, joined IWPR researchers Ariane Hegewisch, Barbara Gault, Ph.D., and Heidi Hartmann, Ph.D. to identify lower paid predominantly female occupations that share many of the characteristics of the "target" occupations and can serve as "on-ramp" occupations to good middle-skill jobs for women seeking to improve their earnings, and employers looking to fill the vacancies. The report is part of the Institute for Women's Policy Research's Pathways to Equity: Women and Good Jobs initiative, funded by a grant from the JPMorgan Chase Foundation as part of its of its $250 million, five-year New Skills at Work initiative.

The Need for Support for Working Families
With women making up nearly half of the U.S. work force, and most children living in families with an employed mother, helping families balance work and family demands is an increasingly pressing priority. Few families have a "stay-at-home" parent to take care of health emergencies, look after the kids, or help with homework, yet workplace policies have not kept pace with this reality. Many workers do not have the basic work-family supports to provide the flexibility to deal with unforeseen events, or the predictability to meet caregiving responsibilities or to pursue education. This reduces economic opportunities, diminishes the health and well-being of mothers and their families, and pushes some women out of the workforce altogether. This briefing paper summarizes research on women's employment and family responsibilities, and discusses three areas of workplace policy that provide opportunities to better support women and families: leave policies, child care and elder care supports, and access to workplace flexibility and predictability.
The Role of the Federal Child Care Access Means Parents in School (CCAMPIS) Program in Supporting Student Parent Success
Affordable, quality child care is crucial to the postsecondary success of the 4.8 million undergraduate students raising dependent children. Despite the growing number of postsecondary students who are parents, campus-based child care has been declining in recent years.
4.8 Million College Students are Raising Children
Over a quarter (26 percent) of all undergraduate students, or 4.8 million students, are raising dependent children. Women are disproportionately likely to be balancing college and parenthood, many without the support of a spouse or partner. Women make up 71 percent of all student parents, and roughly 2 million students, or 43 percent of the total student parent population, are single mothers. Single student fathers make up 11 percent of the student parent population.
Campus Child Care Declining Even As Growing Numbers of Parents Attend College
Affordable, reliable child care is a crucial support for the 4.8 million college students raising dependent children, but is often tough to find. High child care costs, difficulty obtaining subsidies, and scheduling challenges often create significant obstacles for student parents, and may contribute to their relatively low rates of college completion. Postsecondary systems can play an important role in promoting college success by helping student parents locate and pay for the child care they need to succeed in school
Community College Students Need Fair Job Scheduling Practices
Working is often critical to community college students' ability to pursue a postsecondary education, but holding a job while in school can threaten a student's success in college. For students to succeed at both school and work, they need jobs with predictable schedules and they need to have a say in scheduling so that work does not conflict with classes. This is especially important for students who are also parents, who must often schedule child care in addition to work and school.
Paid Sick Days Access Varies by Race/Ethnicity, Sexual Orientation, and Job Characteristics
Paid sick days bring multiple benefits to employers, workers, families, and communities at large. The economic and public health benefits of paid sick leave coverage are substantial, including safer work environments; reduced spread of contagion; and reduced health care costs. Access to this important benefit, however, is still too rare, and is unequally distributed across the U.S. population, with substantial differences by race and ethnicity, occupation, earnings levels, and work schedules. New data also reveals differences by sexual orientation, especially for men.

Embarrassed that I missed the Red Flags? You bet! But I'm hoping that my experience prevents other people from making the same mistake.
By the way, I WAS a member! And I suspect most of the postings on here are from people who are or were. Either way, there's some good information on this website.
I was invited to attend an open house at the Direct Buy showroom. I along with about 12 other people in attendance were given a presentation which used several examples to show the exhorbant markups that retailers place on goods and that Direct Buy had an exclusive arrangement with manufacturers that allowed them to sell their products at near wholesale prices.
At the end of the hour long presentation, we were told that the membership fee was $3999. I thought this was pretty expensive, but the Direct Buy representatives pulled me aside and asked for a sampling of the items I would need for my home. In every instance they showed me on paper how they could save me enough in the first year to pay for my membership. I asked them to allow me to think it over and they informed me that if I left without joining that I would not be able to ever return to the store and the offer would be revoked.
RED FLAG # 1. Even the Texas Attorney General's Office will tell you that this, while within their rights to do, is still a "HIGH PRESSURE SALES TACTIC!"
Even though they made it sound like a good deal, I told them I could not afford to pay the $3999. When it was finally apparent to them I was not going to be able to pay the full membership fee up front, they offered to split the fee up into 3 payments of $1330.
So believing that I would in fact realize significant savings in my purchases, I decided to buy the membership. However; within several days after doing so, my enthusiasm began to wane as I started to realize that things aren't near as good as they sounded in the presentation.
The primary purpose that I joined this discount buying club was because I intended to renovate my home and I was led to believe that I could receive substantial savings specifically on my cabinets, solid surface countertops and floor coverings.
Misrepresentation of product pricing from their associates: During the open house following the presentation, I spoke with two Direct Buy reps, Laura and Gabe about my most immediate purchases which included wooden blinds, and cabinets. I had already been told during the presentation that the markup on window coverings was 200 to 300 percent, so I expected significant savings. I wanted to get a price quote on blinds as I had my window measurements with me. Conveniently, the Hunter blinds catalog could not be located and several associates spent about 45 minutes looking. But of course they were unsuccessful in finding it.
A few days later I came back in to purchase wooden blinds for the master bedroom. (Once again the Hunter catalog was missing and I had to leave and come back the next day) I had already received estimates of $109 to $130. (the latter being Hunter brand) from three different sources. My Direct Buy price for the same make and style of Hunter blinds was $99. Add in the Direct Buy handling fee of 8% and the savings isn't that remarkable. Where was the 200-300 percent markup they talked about?
But in the interest of fairness, I went forth and intended to take full advantage of my membership. So I purchased the blinds. I was told that the blinds would take 4-6 weeks to arrive. It was 9.5 weeks before they were shipped!
My next purchase was going to be carpet for the bedrooms. I came in and browsed through carpet samples and made some notes. I scheduled an appt with Gabe the next day (Wed July 7) to discuss carpet and cabinets. When I arrived for my appointment, Gabe informed me that he had to leave soon for a pickup he had to make in Killeen. He would take care of the carpet and another rep, Kareem, would discuss the cabinets with me. Several of the samples that I had made notes on had been checked out and Gabe said that he would follow up and get those samples for me to look at.
I had also seen a carpet style at Home Depot that I was interested in and asked if he could get that style. He said he could try if I could get him the style name and manufacturer for him. I was then rushed off so Gabe could leave. I later obtained the information about the Home Depot carpet style name and number, and left the information with the receptionist to give to Gabe.
That evening I came back in to follow-up with Kareem on the cabinets as he had been very sick earlier. I saw Gabe and told him that I had given the carpet information to the receptionist and he promised me he would call the next day on a price. I told him that I would be off on vacation, but to call me on my cell phone as I wanted to make a decision on the carpet as soon as possible.
Having never heard back from Gabe, I returned to the showroom a week later on July 14. When questioned as to why I did not hear back from him on a price, Gabe said that he had ordered a carpet sample and that it should be in any day. I told him I didn't ask for a carpet sample, that I already had the sample from Home Depot and that he was supposed to have gotten me a price. It was two days later before he provided me with a price, which was only 15 cents cheaper per square foot than Home Depots quote. Again, this is not a very substantial savings. At this point I began to become very wary of this promise of manufacturers direct discount pricing and sought to further investigate. I also bought my carpet from Home Depot because I did not trust Direct Buy.
I also had received quotes from both Lowes and Home Depot on cabinets that were comparable in grade and quality as the brands that DB provided quotes on. Interesting enough, while I was getting the quote from Home Depot, the employee pulled a page from the printer and put it on her desk. She then stapled my quote together and handed it to me. My copy of the quote was approximately $8000. but the figure on the copy that was on her desk was about $13,000. I asked her why there was such a disparity in the two figures. Her response was: oh, that is the manufacturer's suggested retail price. No one ever pays the retail price.
This tidbit of information made me even more suspicious of Direct Buy's claim to exclusive insider pricing. I went back to Lowe's and asked the sales person there about the MSRP of the cabinets and she had to pull the information for me, but that figure was also several thousand dollars more than the quote she had given me previously. She confirmed that they do not sell the cabinets at the MSRP because no one would ever pay that much for them.
At this point I believed that I had been taken for a ride and sent a letter to the Austin Direct Buy store requesting a full and immediate refund of the membership fee that I paid, and also a refund for the blinds that I had purchased. I never received a response from that letter, and they've since refused to refund my money. Interestingly, they've also never made any attempt to collect the balance.
I went ahead and bought my cabinets from Lowe's because they were the best cabinet (Kraftmaid) and less expensive than the cabinets quoted by DB. Besides, I had never heard of the brand that Direct Buy was selling, and having remodeled several homes over the years, I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about products.
I filed a Better Business Bureau complaint, but that's really a waste of time. The local owner responded with a bunch of lies and refused to even discuss a refund. He had no interest in trying to resolve the issue, and never even responsed to the claims of poor customer service.
While there may be savings in some cases, the majority of the time, it's not worth the membership fee. My advice would be to "err on the side of caution" and run as far away from this deal as possible.

STOP! ..before you think about using the Better Business Bureau (BBB)... CLICK HERE to see how other consumers were victimized by the BBB's false or misleading information. Don't be fooled! It has been reported, when there are thousands of complaints and other investigations underway by authorities, the BBB has no choice but to finally give an UNsatisfactory rating to a BBB member business that is paying the BBB big membership fees every year. When a business is reported that is NOT a BBB member, BBB files WILL more likely show an UNsatisfactory rating, then reportedly shake down that company to become a member of the BBB. One positive thing about the BBB is, either way, if a business has an unsatisfactory rating with the BBB, you can be sure, the business is bad. But what about all those BBB member businesses that had complaints filed against them? Consumers never get to hear about them. What about the BBB advertising to the public? Is this a false and misleading perception they are giving about consumer confidence when dealing with a business? Click here to understand more of what consumers and business alike are saying about the BBB. You decide. ..Remember. The BBB membership is not earned, it's paid for!
