Corporate Advocacy Program™
This week I learned that U-Talk Unlimited and American Values had been making draws on my checking account monthly since December. In total, over $500 had been taken from my account. We called the company and told them that money was being taken from our account without authorization, and they hung up on us.
We have had to close our banking account, put a fraud alert on our account, stop all automatic bill debits, cancel our debit cards, etc. Our bank has reimbursed the last draw on our account ($60), but that is all they will cover. I have had to sign legal affidavits for each draw, so our bank can go after the company.
These people are criminals. We never received ANYTHING from them. I have never even heard of either company. The name given me by the telemarketer was somthing like "Dial America." In fact, I thought it was Dial America, which was why I agreed to the "deal" in the first place. This group operates under many pseudonyms.

EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!
Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish you file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.
According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.
If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 # , and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.
Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!
Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/comptroller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.
And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.
Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.
If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.
If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.
Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
And good luck Let us know how you do!

The seats were great. Section 49 on the first floor, left outfield. There were quite a few flyballs that headed our direction. The lower section also had better food selection, nicer bathrooms and overall better views.

Dodgers lost which wasn't good. Beer is very expensive.

I loved the game up until the 7th inning when the bullpen lost it for us. Thanks for having my tickets ready for me; I did not have to wait long. It went really well.
The Houston Astros come to town for a weekend series at Dodger Stadium. Watch James Loney, Russell Martin, and the rest of the Dodgers, led by new manager Joe Torre.

—To test the hypothesis that positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) prevents the collapse of a given lung region when it is equal to or greater than the hydrostatic pressure superimposed (SPL) to that region.
—Intervention study with sequential levels of PEEP applied in random order to a cohort of patients with adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
—Referral center for ARDS in a university hospital.
—Ten ARDS patients (with Murray scores >2.5).
—Basal computed tomographic (CT) section taken at o, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, and 20 cm H2O PEEP.
Main Outcome Measures.
—Basal lung CT sections were divided into 10 equal levels from the ventral to dorsal surfaces. In each level SPL was measured from density and height. The inflation of the level was measured as the gas/tissue ratio (g/t); g/t changes with PEEP were defined as the g/t—P curve. The slope of the g/t—P curve was defined as level compliance (ie, the ratio of change in the g/t of the level to the change in pressure). A linear g/t—P curve was the criterion to detect inflation without recruitment (ie, new pulmonary units opening at a given pressure). A biphasic g/t—P curve (change of compliance after an inflection point) was the criterion to detect recruitment. Pflex was defined as the pressure at which the inflection point occurred.
—The SPL increased from level 1 (ventral) to level 10 (dorsal) (r=.91; P<.01). The number of linear g/t—P curves decreased from level 1 to level 10 (r=.98; P<.01), while the number of biphasic g/t—P curves increased (r=.95; P<.01). The Pflex increased from level 1 to 10 (r=.97; P<.01) and Pflex was similar to SPL (Pflex=1.05+0.9 SPL; r=.75; P<.01).
—The increased SPL causes compression atelectasis; this is prevented when PEEP to a given lung region is equal to or greater than the SPL.(JAMA. 1993;269:2122-2127)

Hi Everyone,
I have now installed the qtranslate-plugin because i/we wanted to make our site availiable in english as well (its german).
So...I have always simply included the form in the editing interface of the page through the "Formbuilder"-area below and just selected one of them.
Now that the qtranslate plugin is installed i would need to select or include a different form for each of the languages - how could i do that?
I thought maybe the form canbe somehow prepared/translated beforehand and show english text in the english version and german in the german....but that seems unlikely...
or the forms can be included in a different way than through the "formbuilder" dropbox?

I decided to pay the full amount and got a Cashiers Check from my Bank. I sent it to the Address the Attorney gave me in TN. Turned out that it was the wrong Trustee. That Trustee however forwarded it to the proper one. The Trustee never notified the Court that the Debt was paid. Bank gave me all the Info on it. My Attorney said not to worry about it and I did not need to go to Court. My Attorney never notified the Court either. My Case was Dismissed instead of Discharged.
I now have to pay another $155.00 to get a new hearing from the Court. Meanwhile all my Debts to Fairbanks and any Secured Creditors had already been paid out of the payments. The remaining payments were to Several Utilities and wer covered by my Payoff figure.
The Vultures at SPS wasted no time in setting up a Sherrif Sale for next Feb 8. The order that allows this was issued in 1991, for over $20,000.00 when my entire debt was $907.81, paid before the notice was even sent to me. Meanwhile I had gotten back 2 overpayments from SPS this month on my Mortgage. BTW my Mortgage is to run until June 2007. My Next Payment due is not till June 2006, that's how far ahead I am. I also sent them the remaining $907.81 that would complete my Mortgage. That check has been cashed and I should be getting Titlke to my House Instead I am getting a notice of Sherrif Sale.
During the Class Action Suit earlier in the year it was determined that they overcharged me by $3895.00. I wound up getting $235.00 from the settlement. I plan on filing a Com[plaint with the US Attorney and State Attorney General, in addition I will be looking into a Class Action as well as a Private Lawsuit.These Peoiple must be put out of Business and into Prison.
Stay tuned for more Info.

... not captaining Suarez and not picking Cech! The damage?
Looks like Suarez got 43? And Lloris minus 7?
Knock off Lukaku's bonus 8, add Cech's 7... damage? 43 + 7 + 7 - 8 = 49 pts :(
Ironically about the only thing i got right this week was keeping suarez as captain and dropping lloris to the bench...
That was an obvious move but we are all waiting for goofey to goof up when we dont select him he s killing the differential game..

Having been to a few Pilates sessions at local gyms and not really feeling any benefits, I had given up on it as a form of exercise. But, being a runner, my boyfriend convinced me to try again as he said it was great for injury prevention.
I finally stumbled across Chris Hocking at PBA and realised Pilates is an art form. It is wonderful to have a teacher who understands anatomy so well and deliver lessons which are focussed, practical and useful.

I was told I had placed the order on the 11th so it was too late to cancel my account had been charged. I argued that their own paper work said order date was the 12th and they said this was shipping date. This was clearly not what it said on my paper work. So to add insult to injury they would not talk about any kind of refund even partial and gave me a false claims department address on line to file a claim. I called them back three times trying to get a real address and none of them worked.
I have now tried to reverse charges on my account even allowing for the shipping fee since the item was shipped. My free trial that was not started on the date they gave me and did not reach me for nearly two weeks due to a wrong zip code on their part has now cost me 88$. Their add seemed legitimate and you can reach a real person when you call but they will not work with you on a correct claims or validate any wrong doing on their part. It is a scam for those wishing to cancel. I don't think their product is any better than their ripoff scam.
When I tried to enter the claims site at least three different addresses were given me and all wind up with the real website owner of PureNutrient who says he has never sold product.
These people need to be shut down and I would appreciate any information on where to file with better business or else where to file a claim. The company is fraudulent from the get go, by associating their name to a web site that is not theirs and evidently appearing on many pop up adds under healthyonlineliving.net, purenutrientsproducts.com and dietguidenow.com.
I thought I was being very careful keeping paperwork and making early phone calls but this institution has this scam down to a science.
Please make any new consumer aware of their really un-pure cleanse of you money.

WHAT'S DOING IN; Oporto
By MARVINE HOWE
Published: May 20, 2001
The jury is still out in Oporto. For some Portuenses, the designation of their city as Europe's Cultural Capital this year -- in tandem with Rotterdam -- is their proudest moment since Oporto won the European soccer championship in 1987. For others it's a catastrophe, because much of the city is a construction site.
Portugal's second city, which is more than 3,000 years old, has been in trouble for some time, with the population fleeing the traffic-clogged, rundown center for the suburbs. The city's efforts to revive its oldest neighborhoods on the Douro River were rewarded in 1996, when Unesco declared the Oporto Historic Center a World Heritage Site.
Now the aim is to rehabilitate the whole city and improve the quality of life. This means breaking through the hilly granite terrain to build a subway, tunnels, highways, underground parking lots, pedestrian areas and new tram lines, and renewing the riverside drive, shops and cultural sites. The city didn't plan to do everything at once, but some projects were delayed by prolonged rains and flooding and others had to begin to qualify for the European Community money that accompanies the Cultural Capital designation.
No one sees an end to the works before 2004, when Portugal is to be host to the European soccer championships. But for visitors willing to dodge holes, scaffolding and other disruptions, Oporto is a rich, multidimensional city. The waterfront neighborhood of Ribeira, with newly restored granite walls, arches, stairways and brightly colored houses, dates back to the Middle Ages. The center of the city is a trove of Baroque churches and palaces and stately 18th- and 19th-century granite commercial buildings. To the west rise handsome mansions, romantic gardens and parks, and the stunning Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, by Portugal's leading architect, Alvaro Siza Viera.
The centerpiece of Oporto 2001 was to be the Casa da Música, a spaceshiplike building (including auditoriums, multimedia space and studios) by the Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas that is going up on the Boavista Rotunda. But it won't be finished until late 2002 or later.
The Scottish Opera, directed by Richard Armstrong, will perform James MacMillan's ''Ines de Castro,'' based on Portugal's own Romeo and Juliet tragedy, first produced for the Edinburgh Festival in 1996, at the Coliseu Theater, 137 Rua de Passos Manuel, on June 7 and 9, at 9:30 p.m. Tickets are $4.50 to $29 (at 227 escudos to the dollar) at (351-22) 339-4947, fax (351-22) 339-4949.
The Merce Cunningham Dance Company will perform ''Interscape'' and other works on June 20, 21 and 22 at 9:30 p.m., at the Rivoli Municipal Theater, Praça Dom João I, (351-22) 339-2201, fax (351-22) 339-3302. Tickets from $13 to $22. The Web site for Oporto 2001 festivities is www.porto 2001.pt.
The Ritmos-Festos do Mundo will present its global sounds on June 28, 29, 30, at 10:30 p.m., in the gardens of the Palácio Cristal, Rua Dom Manuel II, (351-22) 605-7080, fax (351-22) 605-7083. This year's theme is Latin Planet, with the rhythms of Cuba and Brazil on June 28, France and Spain June 29, and Angola, Portugal and Mexico June 30; $4.50.
Big Names in Jazz will feature the Joe Zawinul Quartet and the singer Maria João, on June 29 at 9:30 p.m., at the Coliseu Theater. Tickets: $20 and $22.
A pillar of Oporto 2001, the Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, 210 Rua D. João de Castro, (351-22) 615-6500, fax 615-6533, www .serralves.pt, has organized a number of events. On the theme ''On Around Into Landscape,'' Lothar Baumgarten is exhibiting his work on tropical forests through photography, sculpture and installations (through July 1). Claes Oldenburg and his wife, Coosje van Bruggen, will show six sculptures in the gardens and a retrospective of their drawings and models, May 18 to Oct. 14. ''From Landscape to Abstraction,'' June 28 to Sept. 30, features works by Mondrian and the Portuguese artist Amadeu de Sousa Cardoso, who lived and worked in Paris at the same time.
The museum, in the modern Boavista district, is part of the Serralves Foundation, situated on a 45-acre estate with gardens, farm and a splendid Art Deco mansion. The foundation has become the center of Oporto's cultural life, with year-round exhibitions, concerts, films and other activities. Admission to the art museum and park is $3.50, concerts and movies $6.60, gardens $2. The museum is closed Monday.
Each year, joyous crowds take to the streets on June 23 to celebrate the eve of the Feast of St. John, the city's patron saint. It's a merry time -- especially in the riverside neighborhoods and the Alameda das Fontainhas Square overlooking the Dom Luis I bridge -- with street dancing, bonfires, grilled sardines and vinho verde, culminating in fireworks on the river near the bridge.
Any walking tour of Oporto should start at the renewed Barredo. In this maze of medieval cobblestone alleys, lined by narrow houses with iron balconies, are remnants of the 14th-century city wall, arched patios, taverns and shops. Towering over the area like a fortress, the 12th-century Sé (cathedral) has undergone many modifications, like the 13th-century rose window, 14th-century Gothic cloister and 17th-century silver altar. Admission $1.

1.) Thermodynamics Principle
-A link to the thermal expansion coefficient and what it means, and how it can be used. My guess is that the thermal expansion coefficient stated in the report means the volume expansion, since the entire system will be under the same conditions for a prolonged time, making each part expand the same.
2.) Best Efficiency
-no need for fuel processing, since they don't need to worry about fuel contamination from other substances, and be made into usable substances straight in the cell (called internal reformation)
-must be at high temperatures to operate, between 750-1000 celcius
-Possible 80% efficiency
3.) Engineering Details
-must be chemically and physically stable in an oxidizing/reducing environment, chemically compatible with other parts, proper electrical conductivity, similar thermal expansion coefficients to the other parts (to avoid cracking and other damage), low cost, be strong, and easy to make.
-all SOFC use yttria-stalized zirconia as the electrolyte, lanthanum manganite (impurified with strontium) cathode, a nickel/yttria-stabilised zirconia cermet (ceramic and metal alloy) anode, and a lanthanum chromite (LaCrO3) interconnect.
-the interconnect is made to hold each cell together in series and conduct the electricity through it toward the thing(s) to be powered. The interconnect has to have a conductivity similar to that of the other parts of the cell, likewise do all the parts of the cell have to have a similar conductivity to that of the interconnect. So the fact that the cathode has to be impurified means that it's pure conductivity is higher than that of the rest of the system, and needs to be brought down, or that it's to low and needs to be brought up.
4.) Environment Impacts
-can take CO straight from source to use as fuel in the cell, cutting down on carbon emissions and recycling the carbon that's already been made.

Thought I might start a post to theory-craft how guardians can best gear/spec/combat against the new Agony mechanic that will be present in Fractals of the Mists dungeon. The information for the update can be seen here.
From the little information known: Agony will act as an unavoidable debuff that stacks in intensity and will degen health at a percentage overtime. So hypothetically it will start at 1% health per tick, and will gain in intensity until it exceeds the player's healing potential and kills the player.
Anet will be implementing special gear, called Ascended Gear that will have infusion slots that can be used to help mitigate the damage caused by Agony. This of course will be the primary mechanic players use to combat Agony, but it is not the only one. If we take the gear out of the equation, the most straight forward way of combating against Agony is by having low life and high regen; enter the guardian, a class specifically design to do just that. The guardian has the lowest base health in the game and the highest self healing, so it is uniquely design to combat Agony.
Looking at the current meta builds for the guardian, most have no emphasis what so ever on +healing power and heavy interest in Vitality/Toughness. I personally think that this is going to change for the new dungeon. Perhaps I am over thinking the Agony mechanic, but if Agony is going to be as challenging as Anet makes it sound, then having both Ascended gear and gear that minimizing Vitality and maximizes Healing Power is going to be important. I would recommend purchasing/crafting some cleric gear now, because this gear might shoot up in value after the patch is implemented.
Would be interested on hearing any further thoughts or feelings on the topic from any other Guardians.

As a follow up to my last post on Rex (RSC) on September 4, the company reported second quarter results this morning that were quite positive. EPS were $0.09 (about $0.03 excluding an accrual benefit), reversing the trend of losses from the last three quarters.
The ethanol division would have been break even except for the start up costs at the last plant it opened. More importantly, ethanol margins have improved in third quarter so far and all plants are operating profitably.
Another positive update was on the real estate front where the company is making progress leasing out vacant properties, including part of its largest distribution center for which a lease was signed after the close of the quarter. In addition to property it is already landlord on, the company can either sell or lease out 23 former stores and 2 distribution centers.
- Estimated Asset Valuation Update: Corporate Cash and + $7 million Tax Refund = $9.50/share
- Real Estate: 43 stores and 2 warehouses, net $3 millon mortgage = $5.00-$5.50/share
- General Tax Credits: $3.40/share
- Ethanol Interests (138 million gallons per year at name plate capacity): ?????
In summary, Rex has substantial assets, including cash and tax credits that exceed the current share price. The bleeding has stopped and there is the potential for a significant increase in earnings and cash flow in coming quarters as the company leases or sells vacant properties and as ethanol turns profitable, as it has done so far in third quarter.

Clarkston Home Inspection Company, Complete Home inspection Services, Offers Information
Clarkston Home Inspection Company offers information on Inspections on new website.
A home inspection from Complete Home Inspection Services is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a home, from the roof to the foundation. Having a home inspected by a professional home inspector is like giving the home a physical check-up. If problems or symptoms are found, the inspector may recommend further evaluation.
Of course, a home inspection also points out the positive aspects of a home, as well as the maintenance that will be necessary to keep it in good shape. After the inspection, one will have a much clearer understanding of the property that they are about to purchase.
If one is already a home owner, a home inspection may be used to identify problems in the making and to learn preventive measures which might avoid costly future repairs. If one is planning to sell a home, they may wish to have an inspection prior to placing the home on the market. This will give the homeowner a better understanding of conditions which may be discovered by the buyer's inspector, and an opportunity to make repairs that will put the house in better selling condition.
Robinson uses ASHI standards of practice in all of his home inspections and thoroughly looks at hundreds of items using state of the art equipment.
The standard home inspector's report will review the condition of the home's heating system, central air conditioning system (temperature permitting), interior plumbing and electrical systems; the roof, attic, and visible insulation; walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors; the foundation, basement, and visible structure.
Those looking for home inspection in Clarkston, can learn more about the credentials and experience of Complete Home Inspection Services by visiting http://www.clarkstonhomeinspection.com/
About Complete Home Inspection Services:
Complete Home Inspection Services is dedicated to providing valuable information about one's new home. Rick Robinson, owner, has been in the home inspection business for over 12 years. He will thoroughly inspect all major components of the subject property to expose unknown defects to the potential homeowners. His company will give one the information they require to make an informed decision. Home inspection services provided throughout Oakland, Genesee, Lapeer, Macomb, Washtenaw, and Wayne counties.

on October 21, 2011 - 12:01 AM
After spending an afternoon with Occupy D.C., the District of Columbia's branch of the Occupy Wall Street movement, I now understand why the protesters avoid designated leaders. For one thing, when things go wrong, it's easier to spread the blame around. That's something the young radicals have in common with the folks on Wall Street and in Washington.
Fortunately, outside of such bad scenes as the group's march to New York's Brooklyn Bridge that ended with hundreds of arrests a few weeks ago, it is a blessing, as the protests have spread nationwide, that more has not gone wrong.
That's a tribute to the earnest efforts by thousands of participants to get along and help this start-up movement to do -- well, whatever it is that the protesters are trying to do. Newspeople look in vain for Occupy Wall Street spokesmen to quote. That's frustrating but, as we saw with the tea party movement, a lack of formal leaders, agenda and structure can work to a young movement's advantage. It also is easier to pull members of diverse groups together when they don't have to argue a lot about specifics.
For movements moved by anger, it is enough merely to find others who are as upset as you are about whatever makes you upset. As one sign spotted in a New York protest put it, "We're here, we're unclear, get used to it!"
Although both sides hate to hear the comparison, changing conversations is what the tea party is about, too. As the tea partyers came together under such slogans as "Taxed Enough Already," the Occupy Wall Street movement is unified by a similarly broad and simple banner: "We are the 99 percent."
The slogan calls attention to an issue that has received short shrift amid Washington's recent obsession with cuts in taxes and spending: income inequality.
The top 1 percent hold 34.6 percent of all privately held wealth and 42.7 percent of all financial wealth (total net worth minus the value of one's home), according to a widely quoted 2010 report by Edward Wolff, a New York University economist and expert on wealth statistics. And while the share of national wealth held by the bottom 90 percent has fallen since the 2007 economic crisis, Wolff found, the share held by the top 1 percent has slightly increased.
That's enough to make some people take to the streets, particularly on the left, which has grown restless while watching congressional Republicans relentlessly block and push back President Obama's remedies.
Now even the president has been tiptoeing closer to standing in solidarity with the protesters, without actually joining them in the tents. "The most important thing we can do right now is [for] those of us in leadership [to let] people know that we understand their struggles and we are on their side," Obama said of the protests in an ABC "Nightline" interview, "and that we want to set up a system in which hard work, responsibility, doing what you're supposed to do, is rewarded."
If so, the Occupy Wall Street movement will have accomplished a lot. The left's backlash against the rich is only the beginning of a larger conversation that was kicked off by the right's backlash against Obama. The Occupiers don't have all the answers, but they can help the rest of us raise the right questions.

There are tons of tips out there on how to properly pull an all-nighter. To help you with the Overnight Website Challenge (18 hours away) we've pulled together a few of our favorites.
Get a Good Night's Sleep While You Can
We're talking the night before. Go to bed early, sleep as much as you can. It's been shown that American's don't get enough sleep, so you're already tired. Tonight get to bed early, squeeze in eight solid hours of sawing logs if at all possible.
"Experts" seem pretty divided on if caffeine helps or hinders during an all-nighter. Those who are against caffeine are wrong, dead wrong. It's a beautiful chemical that interupts the sleep chemicals in your brain. While Benjamin Franklin was fond of saying "beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy," I'd make a strong argument that caffeine might be the proof.
As they say, you can have too much of a good thing. Watch the caffeine intake. Too much might leave you jittery and irritable, too little might leave you snoozing, and way too much can allegedly kill you. You can download and print out this handy Caffeine Calculator or visit Death by Caffeine to see how much you'd have to ingest before it killed you.
Susan Inglis who was on last year's winning Team IB said planning for naps is imperative. Her team won last year, who are we to argue? Plus, our own president Luke Bucklin (pictured above during last year's challenge) seems to agree, naps are good.
Get up & Get Your Blood Flowing
We suggest these kinds of activities to get your blood pumping.
Or, if you like to go the safe route, you could try something like this:
Light snacks throughout the night will keep your blood sugar from plummeting and help you stay more alert. Plus, you're packing another 8 or so hours into your day, you need that extra meal. However, with fresh fruits, salty snacks, Chipotle, Umbria Pizza, Buffalo Wild Wings, we got you covered on this one.
Turn Up the Radio
Seriously. This is more than just a ploy to get Autograph's "Turn Up the Radio" named the official theme song of the Overnight Website Challenge 09. Every article I read about the proper way to pull an all-nighter mentions music as an important factor, especially loud music with a lot of bass. But make sure to bring some headphones as to not to annoy everyone with your repeated listening of Human League's Fascination.
The Mayo Clinic has a boatload of tips for reducing eyestrain when working in front of a computer for a long period of time.

Great for HF cut off saw BUTh
By Magicman
from Central CA
This works great for the HF cut off saw. Tried and did use it in circular saw, not so good. It flexes too much and tries to go in circles but I used it in one, and was able to finish job. BUT it was never intended to be used in a circular saw. In the HF cutoff saw it lasted remarkable long, Price: GoodQuality: GoodLongevity: Good for what it is intended.

Since the release of "The Neuromancer," Francis does all the work in the studio by himself and has referred to his live band as 'The Neuromantic Boys', and the tag line is now used in conjunction with the William Control name to advertise performances. The 'Boys' currently consist of Kenneth Fletcher (who has been involved with the WC project since "Hate Culture"), Ian MacWilliams, and Ben Tourkantonis.

Must be 21: Tequila goes best with citrus sodas such as Sprite or 7-Up; Fanta is another good citrus choice.
If you prefer cola, go for some Diet Coke with lime or lime Pepsi.
A real simple recipe with Fanta is 1-1/2 oz Jose Cuervo Especial gold tequila in 4oz of Fanta Orange Soda.
Another tasty recipe uses 1-1/2 oz of apple schnapps, 1-1/2 Jose Cuervo Especial gold tequila, 1/4 oz daiquiri mix, 7-Up. Fill a Collins glass with ice, pour in the liquors and then top with the soda.
Diageo, the world's largest spirits maker, was to buy a $3,000,000,000 stake in Jose Cuervo, however in mid December 2012 discussions collapsed, and Diageo pulled out of the deal.

ATLANTA (AP) -- Iman Shumpert matched his career high with 30
points and Georgia Tech held North Carolina to its fewest points in
the Roy Williams era to beat the Tar Heels 78-58 on Sunday night.
Glen Rice also matched his career high with 24 points as Georgia
Tech (8-8 overall, 1-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) ended its
three-game losing streak.
North Carolina's previous scoring low in Williams' eight seasons
as coach was 60 points in a postseason NIT win over
Alabama-Birmingham last season.
North Carolina's five-game winning streak ended as the Tar Heels
(12-5, 2-1) committed 18 turnovers, leading to 25 points for
Georgia Tech. North Carolina set a season low by making only 27.6
percent of its shots from the field (16 of 58).
Harrison Barnes and John Henson each had 11 points for North
Carolina, which never led.

I have a B.A. in history, a J.D., and an M.F.A. in creative writing. I am a published short story writer. Although I have only recently listed myself on WyzAnt (in February 2013), I have long tutored middle school and high school students in language arts, English and writing and have worked with high school students on the S.A.T. writing section, as well as college application essays.I have also worked with med school and business school applicants on their application essays and on the writing section of the GMAT. I am a lifelong student, reader and writer. I seek to give students the tools so that they too can learn to love writing and develop their own voices. I don't have a set "curriculum." I like to look at a student's writing and get a sense of his or her strengths and weaknesses. I aim to teach students how to write well-organized and compelling prose and to have fun while doing it.

Lessons canceled without adequate notice will be billed at 1/2 the normal hourly rate.
Alexandra has worked with me on topics from history papers to ivy league college supplements. The feedback I received was tremendously helpful, improving my writing and my understanding of English grammar. While working on history research papers, she was prepared, having done her own research too and having brought in books. Furthermore, her knowledge has help me strengthen my college supplements. Not only did she help with the organization, but she also helped with the content. I will forever appreciate the insight she has shared with me, and hope to further implement the writing techniques she has taught me in the future. I believe she truly cares for her students.
Care student's work deeply, very honest on how much time spend to work with student. I agreed a two hours writing review work, she only charged me 65 minutes.
I worked with Alexandra last year as I prepared for my medical school applications and interviews. She was tremendously helpful at every stage of my application process. Every session was immensely helpful because Alexandra always gave me very thoughtful, constructive, and specific comments/advice. With her guidance, I was able to continue to improve my essays and interview skills.
Alexandra is an extremely attentive and dedicated person. She quickly figured out my writing style and strengths/weaknesses and then accommodated my needs. She also really listened to my stories and got to know me as a person. She has become a source of guidance and wonderful mentor that I admire.
After going through a long process of applications and interviews, I matriculated at medical school in Boston this year. I feel very, very thankful for her help along the way. There was just so much to learn from her personality, dedication, and approach.
Alexandra has a calm demeanor, beautiful voice, notable wealth of talent and expertise, including sound advice, to guide and structure me through my writing in progress for graduate school applications. She is extremely professional, punctual, generous with her time, and attentive with a great sense of humor and wit. I have thoroughly enjoyed my tutoring sessions and look forward to more of them.
Alex has assisted me with some of my GMAT preparation, and has been nothing short of superb. She is punctual, committed, and prepared! I, also, find her post-session summaries and remarks to be very constructive. I would highly recommend her for anyone in search for a skillful tutor, who is prepared to apply her skills in areas of her comfort and beyond.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I have worked with students on their college and grad school admission essays, including essays for the Common App for college and essays for med school applications. Working on application essays is one of my favorite jobs. I love learning about people and strategizing with them as to what might make the most compelling subject for an essay and then helping them to find their own voice in writing it. I have a B.A. in history, a J.D., and an M.F.A. in creative writing.
I have a J.D. degree. I worked as a lawyer for almost 25 years, practicing in both the civil and criminal areas.

I'm designing a page that will display a single post from one category. These posts contain images and I want the loop on this page to display just one post but then have people be able to page through the rest of the posts with the post nav buttons. I am using:

and this works but the navigation buttons don't work, it just keeps displaying the same post. What is the best way to do this?

West Rutland man accused of DUI 5November 13,2013West Rutland man
accused of DUI 5
BENNINGTON A West Rutland man, who told a judge he lives in his truck, is facing his fifth charge of driving under the influence of alcohol.
John F. Swan, 45, pleaded innocent in Bennington criminal court Tuesday to two felony counts related to driving under the influence of alcohol.
According to court records, Swan was previously convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol in May 1989, July 1991 and November 1994 in Vermont and in April 1987 in New York.
In an affidavit, Officer Robert Murawski, of the Bennington Police Department, said he was dispatched to a Route 7, near Exit 2, on Nov. 8 around 10:25 p.m., because of reports that someone was driving erratically. Police stopped Swan, who was driving a 1972 Chevrolet truck, on Route 7 after seeing him fail to stay in his lane of traffic, the affidavit said.
Swans blood-alcohol level was measured at 0.107 percent around 10:45 p.m., police said. The legal limit in Vermont is 0.08 percent.
Swan was released without bail but ordered not to drive unless he has a valid license.
Frederick Bragdon, who represented Swan, said he expected there was going to be some issue in the case whether it was Swan or Swans sister who was actually driving at the time.MORE IN This Just InColleges merger

The number of couple-owned businesses in the country is rising as people choose to make changes about their careers, due to the economy or to work/life balance issues. Both men and women are increasingly curious about the dynamics of working with a spouse. Yet no one teaches this subject in school, and our ancestors' knowledge ― be they mercantile owners or farmers ― was not passed on. Without fail, when people find out my husband and I run a successful business, they comment, "How do you work with your spouse? I would have killed mine by now!" But who says I haven't?! No, of course I haven't, although there were certainly times in the early days when we could have walked away from the business, or our marriage, or both; this is what people fear the most. There are literally millions of businesses which are run by husband and wife teams. Yet many people believe that running a business with a spouse is not possible. Perhaps this is why there is a lack of information for people who want to get help in successfully managing both a marriage and a business. Soulmate Proprietors shows couples how to accomplish this while still enjoying the respect, love and admiration that brought them together in the first place. The book is fun and light-hearted, and provides useful, real-world advice and tips in an easy-to-read format. Numerous featured couples share their misadventures and triumphs, which help readers realize they're not alone. TRUTH: Glenn Muske, an Oklahoma State University professor who spent six years studying the topic, estimated that 3 million of the 22 million U.S. small businesses in the year 2000 were couple-owned . He and other experts believe the number is even higher today. Another statistic suggests only 5 percent of the "all-in" husband-and-wife-owned businesses can make the partnership work. The odds are not positive. Understandably, this group is desperate for information that will change those odds in their favor. SO WHERE DO YOU GO FOR HELP? Soulmate Proprietors answers the needs of people who are running a business with their spouses (or even thinking about it). Through my own experience and research – often trial and error – and that of other husband-and-wife teams, I've gathered relatable anecdotes and practical advice that readers can implement immediately. Whether they're starting a business, buying an existing one, or want to reach new levels of success with their current co-owned venture, couples will benefit from the book's up-front knowledge that smoothes what can be a rough path. Written in an easy, humorous style with plenty of examples, the book raises questions to provoke conversations – not arguments – and to help couples make decisions today, before bad habits arise and tensions escalate. REMEMBER – PEOPLE DO THIS EVERY DAY! Men and women can get past their self-doubt – past the fear – of running a business with their spouse. This resource book teaches couples how to address those fears and the inevitable hiccups that occur. Running a business and pursuing their dreams should be fun and exciting, not scary. Millions of couples run businesses together and they do it successfully every day. Soulmate Proprietors is the just wake-up call lucky couples need to turn their business into the next runaway success.

News : 500-job Call Centre Not Coming to Guelph
GUELPH, Aug 1, 2013 -- A customer service company that held a job fair earlier this summer to gauge interest in setting up a large call centre won't be coming to Guelph.
Hinduja Global Solutions informed city officials late last week that it was no longer pursuing the possibility of setting up shop in Guelph.
Jim Mairs, the city's assistant manager of economic development, confirmed the news Wednesday. "It's definitely disappointing from a city perspective," Mairs said.
"They're going to hold off for now but they did indicate they would keep information they gathered at the job fair on hand."
Mairs said HGS told him the decision was based on "reflection on the business needs" of the company and a "detailed analysis of the current labour market in Guelph."
He believes the company had also been looking at setting up a call centre in Kingston.
The company held a two-day job fair in early June to see if there was sufficient labour interest in the roughly 400-500 jobs that would have been created at the call centre.
It had hoped to garner 2,000 applicants for those positions.
"Right now, Guelph is the only centre we're looking at," Kathy Follett-Lloyd, the company's vice-president of human resources, said at the time. "We're focused on Guelph."
Follett-Lloyd could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
The city continued to take applicants via the city web site after the job fair.

AbstractAs universities in Japan gain institutional autonomy in managing internal organizations, independent of governmental control as a result of deregulation and decentralizing reforms, it is becoming increasingly important that the executives and administrators of each institution demonstrate clear and strategic vision and ideas to external stakeholders, in order to maintain financially robust operations and attractiveness of their institutions. This paper considers whether and how the self-image, mission, and vision of universities are perceived and internalized by the management of Japanese universities and empirically examines the determinants of shaping such individual perceptions. The result of our descriptive analysis indicates that the recent government policy to internationalize domestic universities has not shown much progress in the view of university executives in Japan. An increasing emphasis on the roles of serving local needs in research and teaching is rather pursued by these universities. Individual perceptions among Japanese university executives with regard to the missions and functional roles to be played by their institutions are influenced by managerial rank as well as the field of their academic training. A multiple regression analysis reveals that the economy of scale brought out by an expanded undergraduate student enrollment gradually slows down and decelerate executive perceptions, with regard to establishing a globally recognized status in research and teaching. Moreover, Japanese universities with a small proportion of graduate student enrollment, likely opted out from competitions for gaining a greater respect in the global community of higher education between 2005 and 2012. Finally, the management in universities granted with the same amount of external research funds in both studied years responded more passively in 2012 than did in 2005 on the self-assessment of whether having established a status as a global knowledge base.

Visit the original location in the Haight for the cozy pub atmosphere, the delicious food—try the burger or any of the house sausages—and especially the weekend brunch, served 10 am to 2:30 pm.
Magnolia is open Mondays through Thursdays from 11 am until midnight, Fridays from 11 am to 1 am, Saturdays from 10 am to 1 am, and Sundays from 10 am to midnight.

LAST MONTH, THE TEAM RAN THEIR LAST MAJOR EVENT TOGETHER, THE BOSTON MARATHON, AND AFTER 37 YEARS, THE INSPIRING CONTINUES. 'our message is "yes you can', there isn't anything you can't do, as long as you make up your mind you can do it. There's no such thing as 'no' in the Hoyt vocabulary. When we used to go to restaruarnts when Rick was young, people used to get up and move, they didn't want us running races, now we ar all wanted all over the world, it's amazing what's happened to ou story."
