I find out the toll was almost 2 1/2 years ago. I am another person who never received either of the two notices they said they sent. Oh, but I sure did received the one about a final order regarding a hearing which I knew nothing about.
How does it happen that two notices cannot find me, but a final order for a toll which went from $4.50 to $114.50 has no problem finding my mailbox?
And, why wouldn't they send a notice about an upcoming hearing so one has the opportunity for defense? Gee, you think maybe they did send one and it just happened to not find me either --- yeah, right! Or, there isn't really a hearing, it's just a piece paper?
Here's the problem: there is no recourse. You pay the bill, or else.

When I called the 1800 number they claimed to be some internet provider. They had all my information- my visa debit number-my name-my telephone number-and my pass code for my visa debit card.
I never heard of these people and certainly never gave them all that information. Somehow they got it and made illegal debits against my account. I am in the process now with the help of my bank to get my money back. But I was so scared that I cancelled my visa debit number and now will probaly never buy anything over the internet ever again.
These people are frauds and need to be stopped.

Hello everyone,
I have to admit, my family's a little embarassed by my love of all things Tolkien. Do I care? Not one whit, because the world of Middle Earth has always felt suprisingly familiar and warmly comfortable. I felt drawn to join PT because I was impressed by the level of serious scholarship I found on these boards. I can tell that I'm going to learn a lot, and I can't wait to do so with others who love the good professor's work.
While I know that this is a UK site, I am actually in the United States. Next year I'll be at University (which university it will be is still up in the air). Until then I am planning on doing the things that I love, like eating plenty of Tex Mex, drawing and gardening, swimming in the river, and reading loads of good books. It's a pretty hobbit-esque existence (except that swimming bit) and it suits me just fine. Right now I'm plowing through the histories, and so far I'm really enjoying them.

Artificial Human Chromosome Is New Tool for Gene Therapy
By NICHOLAS WADE
Published: April 1, 1997
BIOLOGISTS have accumulated wonderfully detailed insights into the genetic causes of human disease but in many cases still lack the tools to make use of the knowledge. A treatment of great promise, gene therapy, has long been stalled by the lack of suitable vehicles to get genes into human cells and maintain them in working order. But that obstacle could dissolve if a strange new biological invention works as well as its makers hope.
The invention is an artificial human chromosome.
Synthesizing just the essential components of a human chromosome, researchers found that human cells would assemble the inserted pieces into a working chromosome, which could serve as a vehicle for therapeutic genes, they report in today's issue of the journal Nature Genetics.
Gene therapy holds such promise in combating inherited diseases, heart disease and cancer that the Federal Government has been pouring $200 million a year into research, and the pharmaceutical companies' research efforts are said to be even larger.
But so far, almost all attempts to introduce curative genes into patients have fizzled. A report prepared for the National Institutes of Health in December 1995 concluded, ''While the expectations and the promise of gene therapy are great, clinical efficacy has not been definitively demonstrated at this time in any gene therapy protocol.'' Little has changed since, said a co-author of the report, Dr. Arno G. Motulsky of the University of Washington in Seattle.
A major reason is that the stripped-down viruses used in many experiments to move human genes into cells do not provide a stable platform for the genes to operate. The viruses are good at sneaking into cells, as nature designed them to do, but some are not large enough to carry a full human gene and all its genetic control switches, while others provoke attack by the immune system.
So most introduced genes have lacked stable expression, the biological term for a gene producing its protein. The artificial human chromosome could sidestep many of these problems because it promises to provide a stable, natural platform for human genes to function and to be passed to daughter cells when the parent cell divides.
Commenting on the development, Dr. James M. Wilson, director of the Institute for Human Gene Therapy at the University of Pennsylvania, said, ''Stability of expression is a big deal, and if we can in fact create a genetic element that functions like a chromosome, it is a really important advance.''
Dr. W. French Anderson, director of the gene therapy laboratories at the University of Southern California School of Medicine, described the advance as ''fascinating science'' that would be ''very helpful for the development of gene therapy vectors.'' He predicted, however, that improved viral vectors were likely to be in use before artificial chromosomes could pass manufacturing and regulatory hurdles.
The artificial chromosome is the fruit of more than a decade's work by Dr. Huntington F. Willard, a human geneticist at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, together with colleagues at the university and at Athersys, a Cleveland biotechnology company.
The project is based on the insight that if the minimum essential components of a human chromosome were to be introduced into a cell, the cell's natural repair system might be able to stitch them together into a a working whole.
The Cleveland team synthesized the ends of human chromosomes, short runs of DNA known as telomeres, and a long stretch of DNA designed to correspond to the centromere, a vital structure toward the center. Human centromeres, the staging posts for the apparatus that spins dividing chromosomes apart during cell division, are still somewhat mysterious. Synthetic versions have not been made until now, although several groups have been trying.
The synthetic telomeres and centromeres and a long test region of human DNA were all inserted separately into test-tube cultures of human cells with the help of a fat-based chemical that helps DNA squeeze through cell membranes.
As the researchers had hoped, not only did the cells' repair systems knit together the fragments of DNA, but the assembled DNA molecule also became clothed in chromatin, the special proteins characteristic of chromosomes.
The human cells treated the artificial chromosomes like one of their own, dutifully furnishing a copy to each daughter cell throughout the 240 cell divisions of the six-month experiment.
Dr. Willard and his colleagues, in their report, called the development an important step ''toward building a prefabricated artificial chromosome capable of introducing and stably maintaining therapeutic genes in human cells.'' His colleagues were Drs. John J. Harrington, Gil Van Bokkelen, Robert W. Mays and Karen Gustashaw.
The Cleveland biologists believe that human genes built into the artificial chromosomes would operate normally, but they have not yet tested the idea. The DNA used in these preliminary experiments carried a marker gene, which was expressed, but no known human genes. ''We have every reason to expect human genes would be expressed just fine,'' Dr. Willard said.

Luke Campbell Demolishes Andy Harris in One
Craven Park, Hull - Olympic gold medal winner Luke Campbell MBE (1-0, 1KO) made his pro debut with a first round bang. Moments into the fight, Campbell dropped opponent Andy Harris (2-6) on his back. Harris, unable to deal with Campbell's fast punches, was soon dropped for a second time in a blink of an eye. Campbell then pounded on Harris, who was trapped against the ropes, until the referee jumped in to stop the action.
Campbell won a gold medal at the 2012 Olympic Games in the bantamweight division. In April 2013 he agreed to turn professional and signed with Eddie Hearn of Matchroom.

Skill Level Beginner
Using the right syntax in your scripting is highly important. Your script simply won't work, and your game won't compile if there's error in the code. And so you need to get this right so that well, you can build the game. One of the things to do to avoid some confusion is stick with one kind of scripting wherever possible. For example, if you start in C sharp, stay with C sharp. If you're running JavaScript, run JavaScript all the way through. Consistency will help, because that way the term, syntax and naming is the same in every script.
Although, you can mix and we often do see a mix. For example, on the first person controller. I'd highly recommend that you stay in one language. We can see that out first person controller has a C sharp and three Java's on it. I'll open up one of the scripts that comes with Unity, deactivate trigger and look a little bit at the syntax. And see why this is such a big deal. In the assets, I'll go under Standard Assets and then into Scripts. In scripts in general scripts, there's my activate trigger and drag rigid body.
I'll double-click on Activate Trigger to open it up. Unity has opened up that trigger script in MonoDevelop, and we can see it's a C sharp script by the extension .cs. What is says then, for example, right up at the top is using UnityEngine semi-colon. That's a perfect example of scripting syntax and how we need to keep this straight. It's declaring right off the bat that we are using the Unity engine and the line is ending with a semi-colon. In the next section down, there's a public class activate trigger which is a Mono behavior.
And within that those curly braces, a public enum and there's a mode available. What this basically lets us do is say, what kind of trigger would you like? An enum refers to a drop down list. We can see in here as well that the code is colored and hinted. And when we're writing code in MonoDevelop, we'll get hinting and auto completion of our different words to help us with the syntax. We need to make sure then that we are encasing in curly braces at the start and end, things that should be encapsulated. That we're ending our lines with semicolons.
That we're commenting out our lines, as well. The double slash for commenting a section, and the triple for commenting an entire line or paragraph. As we look further down, we can see that this is affecting public game objects, and allowing us to choose different ones. It's also got cases in here, within the void do-activate trigger inside the curly braces, if different things are happening. For example, if the trigger count is zero and it's a repeat trigger, what happens if the object hits something? What happens to the behavior? Who's the game object target? If we're switching around, switching cases, what happens? Are we replacing and so on? What they've done here, for example, is to say, when we're activating the trigger, all of this goes on.
And sometimes there's even some other pieces. For example, in replace, if the source is no, do that. And we can see that the lines are tabbed in so that we get all of the different situations encapsulated in their braces. And lines are ended with a semicolon. Finally at the bottom, we can see that there's the end braces, ending all the different levels of encapsulation. Its important to make sure that the lines are ended with semicolons, and that were using the right kind of language.
For example, at the bottom it says casemode.deactivate. We'll see a lot of this, a dot syntax which is very common in all kinds of scripting languages. Really just saying, for the case mode Deactivate, do something. At the end of it, we've got a semicolon. And then finally, it's enclosed in the rest of those curly braces. At the bottom then, we're going to see now that we've declared all the stuff we're going to do, enter the trigger and do something. So all of what's up here inside those curly braces is what happens when we do activate the trigger.
I can't stress this one enough. You need to be as organized in your code as you are in your assets. So make sure that you're sticking with one language, and take the time to get to know the ins and outs of it. Make sure you've got consistent naming conventions and that you're commenting out your scripts as much as possible. It's very reasonable again that you'll work on this script, implement it and not touch it for six months. And then come back to it and say, what was I doing? And so if you got any kind of hints in there, that will be immensely helpful.
Its also very likely, especially if you are in a small team, lets say on a mobile game that you and three other people will be working together and sharing scripts freely. And you need to be able to hand off a script to somebody and have them be able to read it without saying, what was he thinking? But we may end up doing then is attaching scripts to blank game objects or other game objects with meshes associated. Doing things like the simple ones, activating doors. Or looking for things for score. We may even turn off and on gravity in a rigid body, so things don't fall until we contact them, and then they run away.
We can do all sorts of things here in the script, including making new custom materials, putting in new colors and new kinds of properties, such as rim shade or rim power to be able to get edge-lit surfaces. I want to encourage you to go as far as you can with your scripting. For this course, we're purposefully staying light on the scripting. Putting in the interactivity we can without getting too deep in the code. There's so much we can do with it that it's really a course on its own. So make sure you check back on lynda.com for courses on Unity scripting.
In the meantime, if you'd like more resources, I'd highly recommend the JavaScript essential training with Simon Alladice. It's a terrific way to get going in JavaScript, and understand the syntax that then you can implement in MonoDevelop. If you're using C-sharp, I'd recommend the C-sharp essential training with Joe Marini. Again, it's a great way to get to know this powerful programming language. And you'll see where it's so useful in and out of Unity. If you'd like more help with C-sharp, I'd also recommend looking at the Microsoft Developer Network.
Microsoft has a tremendous amount of resources available for C-sharp, and will take you through all kinds of different cases. Everything from arrays and vectors to libraries and compiling. It's a terrific way to get deep in programming, and will be a very valuable addition to your game. So make sure you get in and watch the additional courses on scripting. And then look for ways to really enhance the game play using Unity and MonoDevelop.

AUGUSTA, Ga.---The six-person search committee for the Augusta Coliseum Authority voted unanimously Tuesday to hire a management company for the Civic Center Complex. That information comes from News 12 city government reporter Chris Thomas.
This is the latest step in plans to turn around the complex, which has been mired in personnel problems and a fractious board for many months.
Earlier this month, on a 5-4 vote, the board fired the manager, Robert
"Flash" Gordon.
Several years ago, the board contracted with management companies to attract events to the complex, but that idea ended.

I have a folder for reports that I don't want indexed by search engines. I placed the folder at /<directory>/apps/wordpress/htdocs/myreports.
In Download Monitor, I created the upload by entering /<directory>/apps/wordpress/htdocs/myreports/test.pdf in the Edit File URL field. This works fine in EBD if the option to hide/mask real link is not selected. If I select the hide/mask option, the link displays a blank page or garbage when linking to a pdf. However, a text file in myreports will be displayed correctly.
If I use the hide/mask real link option with a file that was uploaded in Download Monitor with the Upload New File option, then everything works as expected.
Is it possible to hide/mask a link to a file that uses a directory outside of the standard uploads folder?

Winter can be a very beautiful time of the year, especially if you live in a region that gets plenty of snow. We all know how children love the snow – there are endless possibilities for having fun and cold weather is usually not enough to stop them from enjoying it. On one hand, winter poses a beautiful time of the year for photography, particularly landscapes and portraits, and can be equally refreshing for wildlife photographers. On the other hand, it creates certain problems that are hard to figure out for beginner photographers, let alone their cameras. In this article, I will give you tips on how to photograph in winter and end up with well exposed, beautiful color images. I will also provide you with suggestions on when to go out to photograph and how to use snow to your advantage.
Mastering Lightroom: How to Use External Editors
In every Mastering Lightroom series article, I mention certain strengths of this, in my opinion, superb piece of software. Only every now and then do I find something small to complain about, as I have in my "How to Manage Presets" article. I strongly believe Lightroom offers more or less everything needed to process a well captured image and offers plenty of powerful yet simple photographic tools. However, as our readers have wisely noticed in the comments section of my "How to Use the Spot Removal Tool" article, on rare occasions these tools may not be powerful enough. Here comes another strength of my favorite photo processing application – flexibility. You can use other programs to do what Lightroom can't, and then go back with the processed image to its familiar and simple environment. In this Mastering Lightroom series article, I will show you how to use external editors with examples provided using the most popular and capable you can buy – Adobe's own Photoshop.
Mastering Lightroom: How to Add Film Grain
With mainstream days of film long gone, one would expect all the disadvantages it had on offer to be rid of for all times, as well. Digital is all about clean, high quality images now. Contrary to such an assumption, however, film has not left our everyday lives without a trace. A trace that is even more noticeable now that photographers got used to the differences between the two "religions". Now, I say "got used to", but the truth is plenty of photographers got bored of the sterile digital look and thus would seek ways of livening it up (instagramed anything lately?). One notable featured of photographic film has always been grain. Although, like high ISO noise in digital world, it was a result of increased light sensitivity and as such, an undesirable degradation of image quality, film grain was loved even during the past era of photography. Reasons behind it would make a fine discussion – in short I would say that grain was simply organic and beautiful – but one to be had with a pint of beer in hand and complimented by laughter and warm fire light. Instead, we will concentrate on actually applying film grain, or what is closest to it, with digital photographs. In this Mastering Lightroom series article, I will explain how to add film grain to your images. You will learn how to increase the size of grain, make it rougher or smoother and also hide high ISO noise (or make it more appealing) with it without the need of applying noise reduction.
Mastering Lightroom: How to Tether Your Camera
Lightroom is a very flexible image management and processing software, but apart from powerful tools and settings to enhance your photographs, it also offers features that help you during the actual process of photographing. Have you ever felt that, even with the constant resolution and physical size growth, camera LCD screens just aren't big enough for comfortable image viewing in the field? Luckily, Lightroom offers a way to import photographs and review them as you shoot. This function, called Tethered Capture, is especially useful for studio photographers who don't tend to move about too much. It can be equally useful for landscape photographers, too. In this Mastering Lightroom series article, I will explain how to tether your camera. This allows you to import images directly into the Lightroom 4 environment for quick and comfortable revision as you photograph.
Mastering Lightroom: How to Use Virtual Copies
As all previous versions of Adobe's popular photography management and post-processing software, Lightroom 4 offers catalog system. Such a choice has both positives and negatives. One of the positives is non-destructive editing, which basically means the original image file remains intact no matter what you do to it within Lightroom environment (you can, however, delete the file entirely if you wish so). A side result is a very useful feature called Virtual Copies. In this Mastering Lightroom series article, I will explain how to use Virtual Copies. By the end of the tutorial you will learn how to copy, delete and compare them, as well as see different situations when creating a Virtual Copy can be very useful.
All I Want For Christmas Is… A Working Computer!
Some intermittent PC problems, followed by a serious crash and some toasted devices, and work associated with reconfiguring a new PC have consumed more of my time lately than I care to admit. All the while, a pile of photography gear has been staring at me daily, crying out to be reviewed. Computers, in their various forms, have become rather ubiquitous. Most of us tend to take them for granted, at least when they are working properly. One cellphone provider recently advertised that upgrading our smartphones wasn't just about improving technology, but rather an improvement to our very lives. That's a bit of a stretch, but it is fair to say that some of us indeed identify too much with our technological toys!
Street Photography Tips for Beginners
It is a very natural urge for photographers to document the swirling life around them. We often find ourselves drawn into, as observers, a number of situations and noticing interesting details about other people on the streets. Photographically capturing these moments is a very different thing, however. While landscape photographers will usually find themselves alone and sports photographers are expected to point huge lenses at people, it is a much more self-conscious process to photograph random people in public places. I am sure many of us have regretted leaving our cameras in the bag in the face of interesting everyday situations. In this article, I will provide several street photography tips for beginners. Hopefully, it will help you start using your gear more freely without fear of being confronted by your subjects.
How to Build an Affordable Photo Studio
Creative studio photography can be both challenging and rewarding. In the beginning, when we just start taking the first baby steps to improve our photography skills, we always start out by utilizing available light. It does not take very long for most people to figure out that it can be extremely difficult to create beautiful photographs in low light environments, especially indoors. Naturally, we start looking for answers on how to get around the low light problem and we end up buying faster lenses and better cameras. Only to find out later that even better and more expensive camera gear cannot properly capture a badly-lit scene. The last resort then becomes flash photography – a subject that scares the heck out of many photographers out there.
How to Use Prime Lenses in Low-Light Environments
Fast prime lenses offer a number of advantages. They are great tools in many situations – whether you need discretion, low-light performance, portability or aesthetics, there's a lens for every taste. However, these strong advantages also come with certain issues. When used wide-open (meaning at maximum aperture), many prime lenses render extremely shallow depth of field. In normal lighting conditions modern AF systems are capable of focusing accurately. In low-light environments, our DSLRs start to suffer, which reduces our chances of capturing sharp images. Because of this, missed focus is often mistaken for lack of general lens sharpness by beginner photographers. In this article, I will introduce you to several tips on how to use fast lenses in low-light environments, which hopefully will make you feel a little more confident when using them for your photography needs.
Mastering Lightroom: How to Enhance Landscape Photos
So, you've taken a photograph of a beautiful sunset or a peaceful, fog-covered valley. But something is missing in the picture – it just doesn't look as good straight out of camera as the scene you were seeing at the time. By using simple Lightroom tools, such as Clarity, Graduated Filter and Curves, enhancing a landscape can be a very simple and fast process. While there are many advanced ways of processing landscapes, not all images require that much post-processing. In this Mastering Lightroom series article, I will show you how to quickly enhance landscape photographs using just Lightroom 4.

I spent three hours between Comcast (who said they couldn't return my money without having something physical from the bank including the transaction/ID info; I got the info and tried to give that to Comcast who said they need it on bank letterhead; I got the same info but reverse from the bank saying they need something on Comcast letterhead saying to release the funds). Long story on that side, Comcast got my number after I walked into a service center and had my card entered for a payment to my current account, that number was captured to my account and used without my approval.
Comcast is still saying they can not do anything, after I spent several days callling in to them and complaining and explaining.
MetaBank is a joke for disputes, the so called "risk" department never picks up the phone, I have left messages everyday even after speaking with a supervisor in customer service, who said that they are two separate divisions and they had no way to conference or get someone in Risk to pick up the phone. The voicemail for that department states a call back within 48 hours, its going on 2 1/2 weeks without a call back, and in the dispute form it asks for all contact information. I was then told after over a week that I would not see my money for 60 days while they investigated my dispute. Mind you Comcast had everything faxed that following Monday which was two days after I discovered the missing money.
I just want my money back in my account, they said 10 days for "contingent" funds, and I still have yet to see that. I have other bills that the money was assigned to, and now they are delinquent and there are fees.
I am done calling and trasnferring and not getting any answers.

I asked Dale barris (owner) if his mechanic may have made the simple mistake and filled the wrong reservior? a common mistake new motorcycle mechanics can make. after I suggested this Dale became angry and said "couldnt happen".. and "that it was an underlying problem".. and that the fluid levels never change when getting a brake job. so he said my problem was a bad gasket and sold me a reservoir gasket and sent me on my way. [continued below]....
it took him 5 whole minutes and did not charge me cause he felt I was "dooped enough".. Problem solved no real big deal..ANYWAYs... A few days later my bike sold that was there on cosignment they had my wife come in and drop the title off and Jenn had her sign it (NEVER asking for any identification).. Jenn said we would get our check for the bike once the title cleared into their name. A few days later they called and said come get the check.. Well it was for $1710 NOT the agreed for amount 2100. when I went to speak to jenn about it the old lady there cut into our conversation and became angry with me and said I was nothing but a problem and to take my check and get out of their store.
I asked who did the title work and I found out that the old lady (later found out she was the owners wife kathleen barris) did it. this is illegal in ohio. she said she saw my wife sign it from across the room and "this was legal".. I personally dont even remember seeing this lady in the room when my wife signed it and assumed that jenn (later found out she was jennifer barris daughet of the owners) was a notary.. she is not.. this was illegal having someone sign a title without a notary present. it is going to cost me more to file a lawsuit againt these people than it would to just leave it as a lesson learned That lesson is..AVOID!!!.... ON THE EDGE HONDA AMHERST OHIO.... Very dishonest people there!!

I am an admin of a WordPress network.
One of my blog authors noticed that if she posts a new post, say at /blogname/2011/10/23/my-new-post/ (note--two days ago), that is a member of category x, it doesn't show up when viewing /blogname/category/x/.
What's weird is /blogname/category/x/ shows all the older posts but not the one at /blogname/2011/10/23/my-new-post/.
I've checked everything I know to check. The post's Status is published, its Visibility is Visible, and its Published on is a valid date and time before now.
The blog does use a child category of twentyten. The child theme's categories.php only has trivial modifications--limited to a small style change--but removing it has no effect.
The only plugins we're using for this blog are Unfiltered MU and Viper's Video Quicktags.
The only thing "different" about this blog is it consists of a few hundred blog posts imported from Movable Type, using the Movable Type and Typepad Importer plugin. I disabled the plugin already.
I'm scratching my head on this one!
