As I understand wordpress already loads a jquery library via a googles website by default in the functions.php file. So I know not to load another jquery library as it can result in problems
I know that prototype came before jquery so using "$" will run you into errors. Instead we should use jQuery(). And in no conflict mode we can use the shorthand $j.
So all that stuff is obvious. So what do I do when the library is loading properly (i did a view source and it loads fine), the .js file is using "jQuery()", and I am not trying to call another jquery library?
I've been going nuts for the past week trying to figure out how to get jQuery to work in wordpress. Has anyone figured it out?

Skip to comments.Ash Backward (Global Warming Causes Volcanic Eruptions?)
Posted on 04/19/2010 5:58:49 PM PDT by raptor22
Science: An Icelandic scientist says climate change spurs volcanic eruptions such as the one disrupting air traffic in Europe. Rather, the evidence suggests volcanoes cause global cooling and Arctic ice to melt.
The stunning eruption of a volcano under Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull glacier has disrupted air traffic over the continent of Europe as vast plumes of steam and ash were spewed into the atmosphere. Once again, we witness the power of nature over man even as man blames himself for nature's acts.
Almost every malady on earth has been blamed on global warming, so it wasn't all that surprising when Freysteinn Sigmundsson, a volcanologist at the University of Iceland, and Carolina Pagli, a geophysicist at the University of Leeds, blamed the Icelandic eruption on man-made climate change.
(Excerpt) Read more at investors.com ...
Hey, it'll be ash Wednesday every week! LOL
Maybe this duo is angling for some gubbermint money to further study this amusing theory.
Al Gore and company don't know their ash from a hole in the ground.
And because climate change is George Bush's fault...
These enviroloony "scientists" really "amuse" me. Once their hoax finally collapses completely, they can all become used car salesmen.
Yeah, but that's just cause he's a dumbash.
Were they not drilling into the ground in Iceland years back for geothermal power that help trigger this?
I'm pretty sure if you put a slab of ice on a pot of boiling water the ice will never melt unless you put a running SUV in the same room.
Mother earth has found a way to stop the human CO2 emissions and didn't need a summit of world leaders.
The volcano is spewing a lot of CO2. Maybe the Libs should figure out a way to tax it?
Or better yet, throw a huge blanket over it. After all, CO2 is bad for the environment.
You should read the below article. It is pretty funny.
Why did we know that was coming!
Stupid ass woman... That's about all I can say....
She, or the place she works for must be in the hunt for more government funding. This could be a new angle they can use to bleed us dry.
We are now living on "The Planet of the Apes"
Finally, an explanation that makes sense, baby! My preacher [of the same denomination as our DrEnglebert] also told our congregation that earthquakes and hurricanes are caused by (well not directly, but by gods being angry about) women wearing all black, and using cellphones while driving. I for one believe it.
This is dumb and dumber right???? Got one word, Krakatoa.
>> An Icelandic scientist says climate change spurs volcanic eruptions
If all scientists tell the truth then not all scientists tell the truth.
"Almost every malady on earth has been blamed on global warming, so it wasn't all that surprising when Freysteinn Sigmundsson, a volcanologist at the University of Iceland, and Carolina Pagli, a geophysicist at the University of Leeds, blamed the Icelandic eruption on man-made climate change."
If it weren't so frustrating, costly and dangerous, it would be hilarious, these people.
So global warming melts the ice, not the lava.
That would be like turning the air conditioner up one degree then taking an ice cube and putting it on a hot pan on the stove and saying it's the one degree difference in room temperature causing the ice cube to melt.
Kind of an environmentalist's dilemma, no? Gotta ruin the earth to save it.
These "experts" are hilarious!!
Alright, the premise that melting ice caps induced the eruption is almost as funny as the idea that volcanic eruptions on the Gakkel Ridge started in 1999. OH dear God.
Do they also not realize that magma is definitely hot enough to melt ice from even deep within the Earth?
Do liberals also not understand that you eliminate the simplest explanation first before you start inventing new, more complex theories if you want to serve science and truth?
Guess not.
What rubbish. 650' of ice keeps the lid on a volcano? Volcanos erupt on the ocean floor with much more on top of them than 650 ' of ice. Try 20K - 35K feet of sea water. Next......
The important is to tax that volcano,,being as the American taxpayes are the most affulent they will bear the entire burden of the tax. (That's how it's done in Wash D.C. ain't it ?) Now. on to more pressing scams!!!
"Im pretty sure if you put a slab of ice on a pot of boiling water the ice will never melt unless you put a running SUV in the same room."
That appears to be an accurate summation of global warming theory. Of course some say that a gathering of conservative Republicans would substitute for the SUV.
Hey that mullah in Iran said it was good looking women in bikini's. Well I guess that more warm weather could cause more beach babes, but they need to resolve the causality before making these blanket statements.
Two words, Yellowstone caldera.
it had to exlode...the core is millions of degrees.
just ask algore.
Probably. And if they ever acquire an interest in serving, science OR truth, that's probably what they'll do.
But then the Marines will all become corpses...oh wait...
Well, the earth certainly moved for me...
God gets mad if women wear all black?? What's your preacher's take on 1 Peter 3:3-4 "3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. 4 Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight." (NIV) That would seem to RECOMMEND modest dress. And what about the Amish? Has someone told THEM about this?
Maybe the eruption was caused when someone in Iceland played a DVD of An Incontinent Goof, er, An Inconvenient Doof. Whatever, you get the idea. Anyway, I know I always feel like I'm going to explode when I hear Big Al blathering.
Not only were they drilling in Iceland, they are currently drilling the world's deepest geothermal well. The goal is to drill it to 4,500 meters to locate and potentially utilize supercritical water for energy production.
IDDP Krafla - the next phase
Iceland Deep Drilling Project Finds Magma
They can stop now.
I'll say. 4500 meters is about 15,000 feet. That's one hell of a deep hole.
European airline pilots warn governments about engine failures caused by ash amid pressure to get flights moving again

European airline pilots warned governments and safety regulators today against making "rash" decisions to allow planes to fly through volcanic ash clouds amid growing pressure from airlines across Europe to create "safe flying corridors" to get flights moving again.
The pilots' intervention came as air traffic controllers dashed hopes that flights would resume from London Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted this evening by announcing that most UK airspace would remain closed until 1am tomorrow. Airlines said the restrictions, which meant only a few flights took off from airports in Scotland and northern England, were an over-reaction.
BA announced tonight it was cancelling all flights until midday tomorrow.
The UK's air safety watchdog, the Civil Aviation Authority, is holding meetings with national air traffic controllers, airline executives and Lord Adonis, the transport secretary, to discuss flying through zones with small amounts of ash. But the European Cockpit Association, told the Guardian today that any attempts to establish "safe flying corridors" through airspace where ash was present should not be rushed.

Yup. They have a lie to propagate. Don't want science, true science that is, to get in the way.

Because of Winn-Dixie
by Kate DiCamillo
Because of Winn-Dixie Chapter 9 Summary
- If you're keeping track, the friend count is now up to three. But Winn-Dixie isn't done yet. He helps Opal find yet another friend: Gloria Dump.
- Here's the story:
- While Opal is riding her bike home from Gertrude's Pets, she sees Dunlap and Stevie Dewberry, aka Naomi's Bully Patrol.
- Their heads are menacingly shaved for the summer, and they look like twins, even though Dunlap is ten and Stevie is nine.
- The evil duo follows her, and Winn-Dixie starts running ahead.
- Dunlap warns her to watch out, because Winn-Dixie is running straight to a witch's house.
- Winn-Dixie crosses into the overgrown yard.
- Stevie claims the witch will eat Winn-Dixie. Opal tells him to shut up, but she can't help being worried.
- Winn-Dixie won't come out. Opal decides losing Winn-Dixie is scarier than facing a witch, so she enters the gate (after calling the boys "bald-headed babies," of course) (9.13).
- Deep in the jungle of the witch's yard, she hears someone laughing and sees Winn-Dixie literally eating from the witch's hand. Delicious peanut butter!
- Opal sees that the "witch" has wrinkled brown skin and a big flowered hat and she doesn't look like a witch at all. In fact, thinks Opal, "She look[s] nice" (9.22).
- Introductions all around: the old lady is Gloria Dump (too bad for her, right?); Opal is Opal Buloni (and kids called her Lunch Meat at school sometimes); and Winn-Dixie, yes, is named after the grocery store.
- Then Gloria Dump makes Opal a peanut butter sandwich, and they all happily eat peanut butter together.
- Gloria Dump admits to Opal that she can't see very well, so she needs Opal to tell her everything about her, "so as I can see you with my heart" (9.40). Opal does.

Of Horses And Jews (Dead Versus Live)…
Of Horses And Jews (Dead Versus Live)…
By Gerald A. Honigman
— ekurd.net
January 23, 2012
I'm upset.
My wife, Elisabeth, was a 4-H owner of horses; my
daughter-in-law, Isabelle, still loves to ride; and
I have always admired them as one of G_d's
magnificently noble creatures.
I really wanted to see Steven Spielberg's movie, War
Unfortunately, after what I've recently learned, I
No doubt, Steven won't miss the cost of my and my
wife's theatre tickets--as he didn't when I refused
to see his earlier Munich as well. Still, I don't
have to support such stuff.
I'm getting ahead of myself, however, so please let
me explain…
Like millions of other Jews around the world, I'm a
I'm one of those who escaped the Holocaust--the
predictable endpoint of a road carefully paved and
prepared for millennia. Indeed, scholarly estimates
place the number of Jews massacred--often for "holy"
reasons--prior to the 20th century to be at least
that of those slaughtered in the age of Zyklon B
No, I didn't live in Europe during the 1940s…I was
born in the U.S.A. on President Harry Truman's
birthday in 1948--just several days before Israel's
own rebirth.
On my Dad's side (of blessed memory), we've been in
America since the late 19th century. My Grandfather
and Father were vets of World War I and II
respectively (along with many other members of my
But, on my Mother's side, her Mother--my
Grandmother--escaped the pogroms of Eastern Europe
just before the rise of Hitler in Germany. Most of
her family stayed behind and became Nazi statistics.
Had Grandma not made it here, I would not be writing
this essay right now…
Despite the deniers seeking to murder the victims
yet a second time--like Israel's alleged "peace
partner," Mahmoud Abbas, and Iran's Ahmadinejad--it's
legit, in most circles, these days to cry at least
crocodile tears for Auschwitz' dead Jews. Even
school curricula now often include Holocaust
studies. I've been nervous about this and expressed
my fears to a friend, a non-Jewish lady teaching the
Too many folks, you see, want to hear that the Nazis
were from Mars instead of being real people who went
to church on Sundays and turned Jews into lampshades
and soap on Mondays.
No one wants to know that all that Hitler had to
know on this subject was taught to him in Luther's
Second Treatise on the Jews centuries ago, and that
the Nuremburg Laws had their precedents in church
law and other religious teachings for millennia.
Church Fathers such as St. John Chrysostom came
right out and called for the Jews' slaughter.
The problem is exacerbated in that those same
schools teaching the Holocaust increasingly are
adopting textbooks which promote much of the
Palestinian narrative as "Gospel" when dealing with
the study of the Middle East. So, while it's not
proper to be an anti-Semite, it's now fine to be an
anti-Zionist. The Jew of the Nations--rather than
individual Jews--is now the preferred, or at least
acceptable, target.
So, the Holocaust was really not unique.
Indeed, the Jews themselves have allegedly become
the new Nazis and the "Palestinians" (Arabs) the new
Jews in this thinking.
Sympathy for dead Jews is kosher, but empathy for
admittedly imperfect live ones struggling to survive
is not.
Israel is subsequently held up to standards and
expectations demanded of none others--certainly not
the so-called "Arab" world which surrounds it and
routinely subjugates, deliberately massacres, and
has waged literal genocide against millions of
non-Arab peoples in its midst.
Now, this is not to say that suffering has not
occurred outside of the Jewish experience…among
Arabs too. Look what the latter routinely do to each
other (let alone to non-Arabs) in places like Iraq,
Syria, and so forth. Of course it has…horribly so.
But, to compare the plight of Arabs at the hands of
Jews resisting Arab attempts to wage another Final
Solution, to that which Jews have faced--in the
Muslim East as well as the Christian West--for
millennia is to simply tell a lie or to be ignorant
beyond excuse.
Yet, Jews themselves have indulged in this
themselves--including prominent ones whom you and I
have both come to admire…which brings me back to the
first part of this essay's title, horses.
Look, there's plenty of talent out there amongst
writers. Given a timely break and the right opened
door, many a book would make a great tale to tell on
the silver screen.
So, please tell me why one of Tinseltown's current
main Hebrews, Steven Spielberg, can only manage, far
too often, to discover such worthiness in the likes
of folks who spout such anti-Israel venom as the
author of the book for which his latest movie was
made, War Horse?
I'll let Richard Millett from Great Britain explain
what I mean. Follow these excerpts from
Michael Morpurgo claims that Israel shoots
Palestinian children "like a video game."
The film of War Horse, adapted from the novel by
Michael Morpurgo, has just been released in the UK,
but as well as horses being killed on screen there
is something else for filmgoers to cry into their
popcorn over. Morpurgo is happy to repeat vicious
lies about Israel without seeming to bother checking
Last February Morpurgo was given the honour of
reciting the richard Dimbleby lecture,which has been
delivered by an influential figure every year since
1972, and he chose to speak on the lack of childrens'
rights around the world… He pointed out that 8
million children a year die before the age of 5…
Most of those 8 million children die from AIDS, war,
malaria, malnutrition and other diseases in Africa.
But Morpurgo failed to say anything about that
instead choosing to spend a large portion of this
high profile speech on the darlings of the left, the
Palestinians, and invoking the modern day version of
the anti-Semitic blood libel. He relied on
statements of those with an anti-Israel agenda.
As Millett pointed out, Spielberg's buddy did make
some afterthought comments about Israel's
predicament as well, but his attacks and venom were
saved for Jews…those imperfect live Jews--not the
"okay" dead ones of Spielberg's apparent preference.
Nowhere does it seem to bother folks of Morpurgo's
ilk that the real barbarians here are those who
commit the double war crime (the Perfidy Clause,
etc.) of using their own children as human shields
while deliberately attacking the children of others.
He simply dismisses all of this as inconsequential
in the other comments which Millett cites.Just for
the record, however, see what the Geneva Conventions
have to say about this below…
Article #51/7:
The presence of the civilian population shall not be
used to render certain points or areas immune from
military operations, in particular in attempts to
shield military objectives from attack...
Article #58b:
The parties to the conflict shall...avoid locating
military objectives within or near densely populated
The rats' dens are typically set up in or adjacent
to civilian apartment buildings, hospitals, schools,
etc., as America learned for itself in Iraq.
Article #51/2:
The civilian population...shall not be the object of
attack. Acts of violence the primary purpose of
which is to spread terror among the civilian
population are prohibited...Indiscriminate attacks
are prohibited.
Arabs typically target Israeli civilians.
These details do make the difference--regardless of
what the Morpurgos say and what the Speilbergs
choose to present in their "moral equivalence"-type
The deal is that it's easier to demand perfection
from live Jews--something not expected
elsewhere--than to confront the real sources of such
tragic problems.
Indeed, while Morpurgo's counterparts sail on
flotillas on behalf of Hamas's Gaza--which wants
both Israel and its Jews dead (and maybe then
meriting the world's sympathy again)--I don't see
them afloat on behalf of many different victimized
folks in Syria, Copts in Egypt, Kurds in Turkey,
Berbers in North Africa, black Africans in the
Sudan, or elsewhere right now. With few exceptions,
if Israel is not the alleged villain, such
enlightened "Progressives" care not.
While Morpurgo is not a Jew, Spielberg is. And Jews
too have long been in the forefront of demanding
perfection from Israel in an extremely imperfect
world. Now, to an extent, that's a good thing…but it
should be done with eyes wide open, not to the point
of suicidal expectations. When the great rabbi,
Hillel, said two thousand years ago to care for
others, he did not demand to do so at one's own
Related to this current episode, when Spielberg came
out with his movie about the Israeli attempt to
eradicate the perpetrators of the Munich massacre at
the Olympics a while back, he also had many choices
to select from with regards to the movie he was
making on this subject.
For the all important position of screen writer, he
went with Tony Kushner--a well-known, anti-Zionist
Jew. I dealt with this issue at that time, and I was
told by a friend and prominent writer herself, who
frequents Steven's mother's restaurant in
California, that she personally hand-delivered
copies of my articles to Mom so they would get to
her son.
Here they are. This version of Can Kushner was sent
to Los Angeles's Independent Media...
. Here's one of Steven Meet Mahmoud...
. And here's another of Steven--Say It Isn't So...http://americandaily.com/article/8180
While I don't expect simply a whitewash when such
films are made, moral equivalence between victims
and victimizers is not the ticket either.
If Arabs suffered tragedy because of the fact that,
to date, they "only" possess almost two dozen states
carved mostly out of scores of millions of truly
stateless, non-Arab peoples' lands, then what,
indeed, should those latter victims claim?
Here's an idea…why don't the Three Amigos--Tony,
Michael, and Steven--team up to do a blockbuster
movie about the plight of the region's 35 million
another 35 million Berbers, tens of millions of
black Africans, Copts, and so forth? If tragedy on
the screen is what they seek, there's plenty of it
there…real tragedies--not mostly self-inflicted ones
which resulted from the Arabs' own attempts to deny
Jews any justice at all and their attempts
And while we're on the subject, why does it take an
anti-Semite like Mel Gibson to announce that he
intends to do a film about Judah Maccabee (Judah the
Hammer…the hero of Chanukah and the fight against
Judea's Greco-Syrian conquerors), but Jews like
Spielberg don't seem to be interested? And who is
finally going to put the amazing story of Masada on
the big screen?
See the pattern here?
If it does not involve dead Jews and Jewish
victimization, the Spielbergs won't touch it with a
ten foot pole.
You'd think the sire of the movie, Schindler's List,
the Shoah Foundation, and such would have learned
the ultimate lesson from those very endeavors. But
perhaps that was part of the problem...at least for
Jews like Spielberg.
Should any nation's raison d'etre be simply its
perpetual victimization...even if, as in terms of
the Jews, it has been the bloodiest and longest
recorded in history? I had earlier come to expect
this sort of thing from the Woody Allen types, but I
thought the man who also brought the world The
Prince of Egypt knew better.
It seems that, while becoming somewhat of an expert
on the ashes of the Holocaust, Spielberg,
unfortunately, seems oblivious to its lessons and to
the role of Israel as the risen Phoenix of the
Jewish people--just as G_d's Prophet, Ezekiel,
predicted over 2,500 years earlier in the Biblical
passages of the Valley of the Dry Bones. Look them
up…they'll send chills up your spine.
As Richard Millett continued in his January 16th
If Morpurgo was really concerned about the rights of
Palestinian children he would have highlighted the
child abuse prevalent in Palestinian society where
children are used as human shields…where Hamas
destroys childrens' summer camps in Gaza, and where
television programmes are regularly aired by the
Palestinian Authority on which children claim a
desire to grow up to become martyrs…Instead he chose
to believe the propaganda of those…spreading lies
about Israel...
What a waste of an important speech…Instead of
bravely speaking up for Palestinian children like he
could have, Michael Morpurgo probably only succeeded
in adding a little more hatred of Jews into the
The truth has always been that, like all other
nations of humans, Israel will also make mistakes
from time to time.
But the truth is also that no other nation surpasses
Israel in its attempts to seek true compromise and
accommodation with enemies who will settle for no
other solution other than another final one
involving itself. Any objective study of the
Arab-Israeli conflict would soon reveal that fact.
And, like I always like to ask, what compromises
have Arabs ever agreed to with any of their own
scores of millions of non-Arab competitors in the
region? The answer is none--but that does not seem
to bother the likes of the above Three Amigos at
That folks like Steven Spielberg feel that they have
to give further prominence to people who specialize
in duplicitous demonization of Israel is beyond sad.
It is pathetic and sickening.There are indeed many
other talented people in his industry to choose
from. Those selections have largely been Steven's,
and only he knows why he's made them.
Sadly, I cannot get myself to cater to his and other
Hollywood Hebrews' self-flagellating indulgences--in
this instance teamed with nastiness and blatant
hypocrisy of at least one non-Tribal collaborator as
Having said this, I truly regret that I will have to
miss War Horse. That's a shame. I hear that it is a
good movie and love the magic that Spielberg can
bring to films.
Perhaps, as my good friend Jerry Sobel writes
/, Steven also suffers from a somewhat more subdued
strain of a particular genetic disorder...

Artist Statement
At the heart of Uriel's works and objects is the need to
bridge, and the need to both physically and intellectually conjoin the viewer and the object.
Another key aspect is the use of movement in and around the work, achieved
by motors and by the use of video projections, passively in the works
themselves and actively by the viewers outside the work.
In terms of physical materials, Uriel uses cold industrial materials and
manipulated ready-mades. The video material projected inside and outside
the objects, combine edited and re-processed video material from old movies,
YouTube videos and elsewhere.

I used to have a pair of these long ago. I wore them out and it took another year to throw them out. I couldn't find replacements at the time. Now I am the happy owner of a new pair. Love these shoes. ... read more
Before I begin, please allow me to inform you of this. For this particular pair of shoes, the Superstars, the size runs bigger. I was informed of this because I tried on my usual size of 7 {in store} and was quite shocked that they were much too big. The salesclerk had informed me before I tried them on that they run really big. After much work, we realized to get your actual size, you should go down 2 shoe sizes. This applies for women, I'm not sure about men's. They have a natural slip that is quite comfortable. These are super comfy, and are OrthoLite {look it up if unsure as to what that means}. As long as you go down two shoe sizes, you'll get the perfect pair. Seeing as I was guided in the beginning, I knew all of this. Ordering online, you wouldn't. If they don't sell your size online, go in store to Journey's Kids and they'll sell 'me there in the right size for you. Disclaimer: I do not work for Adidas lol I just am obsessed with these shoes. ... read more
I got these shoes because of the style but I wasn't sure how comfortable they were going to be or how well they would fit, but I love these shoes I show them off and they are super comfortable and I can just slip them on. I do recommend getting a size up. ... read more
Absolutely love my Stan Smiths! The fit is perfect, and the look is just as sharp as I remember them. Nothing beats this original style of Stan Smiths. They are a classic! The recommendations are to purchase a size down. I am a definite size 8 1/2, so I purchased a 7 1/2 and the fit was just right. ... read more
Leather! Comfortable with the great Gazelle arch support. Glad these are leather which holds up to the elements better than suede without all the need to prep them so much. Gazelles are one of the best trainers Adidas produces. ... read more
I was so happy with these shoes!! I went to an outlet store and they only had them that started at size 8 but that was a little too big for me and it left me no choice but to order them online instead.

All in all lOVE the shoes ... read more
I love these shoes! I already own a pair of classic white and black Superstars so I decided to get a pair customized. They look great! Very comfortable and will match everything I wear. I recommend going to a store that sells Adidas shoes and trying on Superstars to find your correct size, especially if you're buying women's shoes. I go a full size down (8.5 regular to 7.5 for Adidas) . Customized shoes cannot be returned, even if they don't fit. Overall, great price and worth it to have a unique pair of shoes! ... read more
I wanted these shoes so bad a few months ago but they were sold out of my size everywhere. Finally when my size came back in stock I purchased them right away. When I tried them on I was very disappointed that they were too big. And it really really stinks when you are already the smallest size they sell. I held up my other shoes to the 'size 5' and the adidas sneakers were much bigger. I really wish adidas wouod fix this problem because I do love these shoes. I am usually a size 5 or 5.5 but the 5 was clearly not a 5 more like a 6. I would order a whole size down (if you can unlike me) I decided to keep them since it was such a hassle to buy them and they are not too big after tightening the laces and wearing socks. I love the look and want another pair. Maybe I'll try kids. ... read more
Fitting is totally wrong. I'm ALWAYS size 8, but this time, that same size was like size 10, no kidding, besides my foot, 4 fingers could fit in the shoe at the same time. I'm so mad and disappointed because I bought them personalized and I can't return them. I can't believe I trusted the reviews, sizing isn't right!!!!! ... read more
Very comfortable, light weight. But like others have mentioned it picks up dirt like carzy. Brought them on a week long trip to Sanf Francisco and Truckee, Ca; had to clean every time after wearing them. Got to the point that i avoided wearing them on certain occasions. ... read more

Do not believe you have won a Reader's Digert Sweepstakes from "Brent Lawson" and a letter signed by "Derek Williams". I received a check for 3,750.00 and a grand prize total of 97,000.00 $.
The more questions I asked, the more "Brent" became irritated and hung up. I wondered why such an amount was not sent certified and was post marked from Canada. Beware of the company Worden Saftey Products LLC and KeyBank Natioal Association.

It's hard to describe in words what it's like to sit in a university football stadium with more than 108,000 fans, but we're going to give it a shot.
What is truly sci-fi is that almost all humans possess this apparently fantastical ability. Empathy is a true human superpower. Most of us are empaths. Most of us feel for strangers, can read other people's emotions and can feel other people's pain. Some of us can even take on the suffering of others in an effort to help them.

Remembering a childhood friend
On a sparkling blue Friday afternoon in October 1965, I stepped off a noisy school bus with my best friend, Marvin, to walk the long lane to his family's farm. Until the day I die, he and I forever will be 10 years old walking down a farm lane toward the greatest weekend in our young lives.
The ag cycle is stuck on repeat
The message from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Outlook Forum in late February was pretty clear: In 2016, we will again grow more farm goods -- and, in some cases, far more -- than the U.S. and world markets can profitably use.
For sale: Cheap bull and free trade

When it rains I have water leaking into my trunk. The water sits in the well ont the passenger side. Everything looks dry around the trunk seals and window. Can anyone offer where I might look to find the cause?
Suggest you water test the seal around the fuel fill tube and the drain tube from that area. If nothing found there, the rear window's seal becomes the next suspect. Be careful when doing anything to the rear window - it may crack.
If the car has a sun roof you should also test its water drains - they eventually rust out. I don't know where they exit, possibly in the front and center pillars.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
We spoke to our salesman, 2 assistant managers and a financial person. We told them all that we did not want to take the car off the lot if there were any chance we would be required to come up with more money or if the deal wasn't going to happen. We explained we did not have anymore to give. We were assured after reviewing our credit report that they would not even be talking to me if there was a possibility of the deal crashing. And that they do "not" call their customers back. They make sure it is a good deal before having the client sign. We preceded to sign the contract.
We drove the car off the lot after agreeing to a total of $60.00 more than originally discussed. I spoke to our salesperson 2 times over the phone and once in person explaining that my previous lender was calling about the payment on my trade in and I thought they were suppose to notify the previous lender. The payment was due and he had talked me into using the car payment for the downpayement. As I had explained earlier I did not have a grace period with my current lender and after 2 days it is sent to collections, he assured me that they had 10 days to do that and there was nothing to worry about. I changed by insurance and paid more for the insurance premium. I left 2 messages for the collections department of my previous car that the dealer would contact them.
On day 8 of driving the new car I spoke to our sales person at 2pm and was again assured all was well and he hoped I was enjoying the car. I again inquired about the payoff for the old car..I was told it would be taken care of.
At 6:20pm on the 8th day we recieved a call from the sales person and asked if we could come down to sign additional paperwork. We agreed and were there by 7pm when we arrived we noticed that our old car had been brought out and was sitting there.
We were then told we would need an additional $5800.00 downpayment to make the deal happen. We reminded them of our conversation regarding the fact we did not have any more money to put down and that they had assured us there was not problem, including just 5 hours earlier. I told them now my trade in car payment was late and collections was calling us and I asked if they would be paying the late fees and was told that was my problem.
I requested my car and the downpayment and registation, my second set of keys as well as my registration was not with my file and had to be located.. I assured them I would be telling everyone I knew about what happen and how rude and cold the employees of this Nissan company had been to me. They told me to go move my things from their car into my old car and they would get my check for my downpayment.
After one hour of standing in the Ariona heat and being assured several times the check was being processed,I was informed that they would not be giving me my check the same day that the department that cut the checks closes at 5pm. I said then you knew when you called me at 6:20 that you were going to take the car and not give me my money, and you lied while I stood outside for the past hour waiting. They did not have a comment!!
I asked for a time that I could pick up the check the next day, the "manager" of the dealership told me that he didn't know what time that department opened and could not tell me when I would get the check, I told him I work and can't just leave when they call and had been told the check was being written this night. I told him that I had to use that money to make the car payment that was now in collections, again I was told not ABC Nissan's problem. Nor would they commit to a time to pick up the check.
I showed up at the dealership the next morning. Not knowing how long they would make me wait this time I had to take a day off of work to make sure the car payment was made before 5 pm and preventing any further problems with my lender. I was told they had to find my file. After another 45 minutes I watched as the man with my check sat with it in his hand in "their" office for an additional 10 minutes before bringing it out. I asked what happen with the deal...I asked if it was my credit and was told that my credit had not been the problem. I could only assume they just wanted the additional $5800.00. I was still talking with the man and he continued to address someone else who was there to make a "deal".
ABC Nissan is full of Liars and have the worst customer service that I have ever experienced. If ABC Nissan gave cars out for $10.00 a month I wouldn't take one!! I have also told everyone I have come in contact with about my experience. Go anywhere except ABC Nissan to purchase a car

SUBMITTED: Saturday, August 28, 2004POSTED: Saturday, August 28, 2004
Any person who knows even a little about buying anything knows you buy on the TOTAL PRICE and not so many dollars per month. All thru your post you tell all of us how uninformed you are by shopping payments. The dealer saw this too and knows most uninformed people buy this way and move in for the kill.
In all probability you'll live to buy a car again.
From now untilo then, learn how to do it and get out of this payment mentality. Oh yes, I'll bet you're tremendously upside down in the deal. Golly, I wonder why.

Wisdom From Francis Coppola
I wrote about the Sofia Coppola film called "Somewhere," last week, without mentioning the new film by her father, Francis Ford Coppola, a master of American cinema.
Dad's film is called "Tetro," and was filmed in Argentina. Its the story of a youth searching for his brother, a writer played by Vincent Gallo, who has been missing for a decade. The volatile and wounded man he discovers is not the man he once knew and admired and he discovers an unfinished manuscript explaining why.
Coppola has some interesting things to say about filming in black and white at the film's website, which includes a surprisingly detailed plot synopsis and some behind the scenes videos. »Read Full Blog Post

Newport, R.I. - The decommissioned aircraft carrier USS Saratoga left its port in Rhode Island on Thursday for its final journey to Texas, where it will be scrapped.
The ship departed Naval Station Newport and made its way down Narragansett Bay to the Atlantic Ocean. It is heading to the Esco Marine ship recycling plant in Brownsville, Texas. The Saratoga was supposed to leave Wednesday, but the voyage was postponed because of concern that storms were developing along the route.
Esco Marine is being paid a penny by the Navy to dispose of the Saratoga. It plans to make money by selling what it recovers from the ship.
"It's a sad day in a way to see a great lady finish her career by being towed off to be scrapped," said Bill Sheridan, who was involved in the effort to try to save the ship by turning it into a museum.
Tugs arrived at the station at 5:30 a.m. Thursday and the lines that had held the carrier to the pier for 16 years were cut. The carrier passed in the midmorning under Newport's Claiborne Pell Bridge and by Fort Adams, where people had gathered to watch it go.
More than 100 veterans from all eras of the carrier's life took part in a farewell ceremony at the naval station earlier this month. They walked along the pier, taking pictures and looking up at the Saratoga one last time.
The Saratoga - named for the decisive battle of the American Revolution fought in upstate New York - was commissioned in 1956 and completed 22 deployments before it was decommissioned in 1994. It was off the coast of Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis, off of Vietnam during the Vietnam War and in the Persian Gulf during the first Iraq War. It arrived in Newport in 1998 and fell into disrepair.
The Navy took the Saratoga off the donation list in 2010 after another carrier, the USS John F. Kennedy, became available for a museum. There are plans for a memorial to the Saratoga on board the future Kennedy museum.
The Saratoga, Sheridan said, is "gone but not forgotten, and always remembered in our hearts."

On Monday Evening, some guy calls from thenerds.net and says he wants to verify my order because they have had several fraudulent attempts to purchase that particular camera. Really? That sounded strange to me, as well as when I had to offer the issuing credit card company's phone number during the purchase, but I felt a little relief that the camera was promised to be shipped the following day, Tuesday. On Wednesday, the money was extracted out of my account and an email arrived late saying a refund would be issued because the item was back-ordered. He obviously outright lied as he verbally told me the camera would be shipped the next day.
Have you ever purchased anything on the web where they didn't tell you they were OUT OF STOCK before you placed the order? We'll see how long it takes to get my money back into the account. My suspicion is that they use this money for 4 or 5 days then give it back.
The first reviews I read for thenerds.net were good, but after this happened I dug deeper and found all the scandals and bad service. The BBB is worthless and I will never rely on them again either... They give the Nerds.net a 5 star rating simply because they responded to the 38 customer complaints on file. No single customer was satisfied with the resolutions, but they get credit because they responded? What about the customers that were mistreated or ripped off?
