2K Sports has released a new trailer for NBA 2K15 that offers up the most detailed look yet at Visual Concepts' upcoming basketball game in action. The video features ballers like LeBron James and cover athlete Kevin Durant doing their thing on the court, with color commentary by Ernie Johnson and aspiring soundtrack rapper Shaquille O'Neal.
The action is set to Suck My Kiss by the Red Hot Chili Peppers from the rock end of the spectrum on the Pharrell Williams-curated soundtrack. Fans will also finally learn how Shaq spells the guttural exclamation "yakkem" (spoiler alert: you just read it).
If you're eager for more content before the October 7 release, check out the recent NBA 2K15 Uncensored event, in which Ernie Johnson sat down with Kevin Durant, James Harden, Stephen Curry, and Anthony Davis to talk shop and confirm that their actual skill at IRL basketball provides little to no advantage in NBA 2K15.
NBA 2K15 arrives on October 7 for PC and PlayStation/Xbox consoles.

Equine ER – Dealing with traumatic injuries
I recently had to stop on the side of the road to help out a family whose trailer had rolled over, trapping their horse inside. By the time I'd got past the queue of stationary holiday traffic, they'd already done the first aid basics, and it was great to see how well they'd coped. However, it made me think about what owners can do in emergency situations for shock, trauma and blood loss in horses. [caption id="attachment_2528" align="alignright" width="275" caption="Not an emergency! I like to use ketchup and a good natured pony for Pony Club First Aid Training. If you want to know more, contact your vet - many practices run great first aid training courses for clients"][/caption] In serious accidents, the most common injuries are probably bruises and lacerations - jagged cuts, caused by broken metal and debris cutting through the skin. However, puncture wounds and broken bones are also not uncommon, and it can be really difficult to determine what's a mild graze, and what's a deep, dangerous puncture wound in the field, let alone by the side of a busy road! If you're faced with a real emergency like this, remember three things - first, make sure you and anyone else around are not at risk. Second, get someone to call a vet and any other emergency services (e.g. the police to close the road, the fire brigade to cut horses and people out of the wreckage, and of course ambulances for any human casualties). Finally, assess the horse(s) and do what first aid you can at the scene. When assessing the injured horse, I find it really useful to look at it in two stages - the Primary and Secondary surveys. The Primary Survey is designed to find injuries that are immediately life-threatening, and need addressing NOW. This would include serious fractures, significant bleeding, breathing difficulties and any neurological disorders (half a tonne of fitting horse is a danger to itself and everything within ten to twenty feet). I like to start at the nose and work rapidly to the tail, running my hands over the horse, looking for wounds or areas that don't feel right, and assessing how the horse responds. If you find a wound that's gushing blood, it needs to be stopped; a "grating" feeling under your hands when you feel along a canon bone often indicates a fracture, which must be stabilised. In an emergency situation, the key is to stabilise the horse until it can be moved to a safer location for further workup, and it is vital to be quick, but also smart. Don't get so bogged down with relatively minor injuries that you miss somethng life-threatening! A wound that that oozes can be left until you've finished the primary survey; one that's running with dark blood needs seeing to, one that's spurting may kill the horse before you've finished unless you address it immediately. To stop bleeding, apply pressure - even a major arterial bleed can be slowed, if not stopped, by a padded up numnah pushed into the wound by one or two people (ideally two, so you can swap over when you start to get tired). One of my horses was staked on a hack many years ago, when a piece of wood flicked up into his groin and tore the femoral artery. His life was saved by two of the people out riding with him, who pulled off their jackets and forced it into the wound, slowing the bleeding until a vet could arrive to pack it closed. The major risk areas for bleeding are the groin and neck, where major blood vessels run close to the surface and can easily be damaged. It is really important when doing a primary survey to check for signs of shock - horses are incredibly tough, but they can still suffer internal bleeding and blood loss, even if nothing's obvious, so roll up the horse's lip and check the colour of his gums. Then press on them so they go white, and time how long it takes for the colour to return. A normal, healthy horse will have nice, pink gums and a capilliary refill time of less than 2 seconds. White or very pale gums indicate shock, probably from blood loss, as can a prolonged refill time, while blue gums may indicate heart problems. A horse that is behaving abnormally need to be treated with extreme caution - concussion is uncommon, but it does happen, and is often more dangerous to the people around than it is to the horse! There's nothing you as an owner can do about it, so make sure you're ready to jump clear if needed. A suspected fracture is a nightmare for any horse owner; however, it's worth remembering that some fractures in some horses can be repaired surgically. The most effective form of first aid is to immobilise the limb with a thick bandage and/or splints - however, unless you know exactly what to do, don't try to apply splints without a vet's instructions. Some fractures, sadly, are irreparable - I once got called to a horse that had fallen over trotting across its field, the person who called said it had a "small cut". When I arrived, his hock was pointing the wrong way round, and sadly I had to tell the owner that there was nothing that I could do, except put him down to remove the suffering. Once the primary survey is completed, and everything addressed as best you can, you need to consider moving the horse to safety. If possible, wait for the vet to arrive first, but this may not be possible if you are in an unsafe or inaccessible location. Remember, a horse with anything significant on the Primary Survey isn't fit to be moved anywhere until it has received veterinary treatment! In the case of my roadside horse, we were able to borrow a box to move him off the road to a nearby restaurant car park (I know, not perfect, but we had to improvise at the time!). As soon as you've got him to a safe place, it's time to carry out a Secondary Survey. When they arrive, the vet will probably repeat what you're doing - but if you've already carried out a survey, you can bring anything important to their attention, speeding up treatment. The Secondary Survey is a full examination of the horse, checking every lump or bump, scrape or cut for further significance. If a vet is doing it, we'll often clean up wounds and probe them for depth as we go along; however, please don't do this yourself! We need to see everything as far as possible as it is if we're to properly assess it. We'll always be grateful, though, if you can tell us what there is and where - e.g. "three grazes and a cut on the left flank, swelling over the right eye and a deeper wound on the right hock" allows us to prioritise the swollen eye and the deep wound, before we check over the grazes. Now is the time to apply pressure to any oozing or dribbling wounds, to check the feet (I've seen otherwise apparently normal horses prove to have deep cuts in their soles from climbing over broken metal to escape - and immediately after the incident, appear completely sound under the influence of adrenaline). Periodically, recheck the gums to make sure that the horse isn't becoming "shocky". Remember, horses are almost unbelievably tough - it is amazing what they can survive. My horse who got staked lost about half his total blood volume, but he made a complete recovery and lived for another ten years in excellent health; and the horse in the road accident, despite being thrown across the road, appears to have got away with cuts and bruises. So, even if it looks a disaster, it's always worth trying first aid until a vet tells you otherwise, because it really can save a horse's life. Check with your vet to find out if they run first aid courses so you can be prepared.

I run a blog that has until now been handcoded in HTML, which is very tedious. I decided to create a blog on WordPress in the hopes of feeding those posts through a script to generate static HTML from each post. That way, I could update the blog with WP's backend, which would be syndicated and converted into static HTML rather than writing the HTML for each post, and rather than coding an entirely new WP template around an installation just to be able to use the blog's backend to add posts.
I am currently using the RSS2HTML JavaScript (http://rss.bloople.net), which captures the RSS feed from the WordPress site and formats it on the public site as HTML. So far, so good.

GMC student in ICU after jumping through fourth-floor windowApril 28,2014By Darren Marcy
Staff Writer
POULTNEY - A Green Mountain College student is in intensive care after he was severely injured early Sunday morning after police said he jumped from a fourth-floor window of Ames Hall while he and friends were taking LSD and drinking wine.
Christian Pezzino, 22, of Reading, Pa., was reported to be in the intensive care unit at Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington on Monday.
Pizzino was initially transported to Rutland Regional Medical Center after the 2 a.m. fall, but was soon flown to Burlington by helicopter.
Detective Sgt. Albert Abdelnour said Pizzino was drinking LSD-laced wine with a group of friends when he allegedly ran to the end of a hallway and jumped through a closed window from the fourth floor of Ames Hall.MORE IN This Just In

I have a 2003 Durango and its engine light is on. THe procedure yields a code of P 0456. I suspect it means it's time to change the oil, but not sure. Anyone know what the codes mean?
Yeah - it means your gas cap is loose. Actually, it points to a small leak in your evaporative emissions system, but the most likely cause is you didn't screw the gas cap on tight enough.
FYI - there's no OBD-II code that tells you to change your oil.

On my 2001 Ram I had codes for a small leak at least 6 times over the last 5 years. Each time it was a bad hose, bad hose manifold, bad fittings etc. Since new I never went over a year without that error showing up again. Not once was it the gas cap. I have heard thats common but never my luck!
Thanks all: I disconnected the battery for a while - now all is well and the error lamp is out. For now.

Allison Kerby can communicate with ghosts, but her uncanny gift has its price: Allison frequently finds herself in the reluctant role of private investigator for specters seeking supernatural justice. When Allison's late father - himself among her ghostly guests - suddenly disappears, Allison seeks clues to his whereabouts from her new client, a vindictive and vengeful visitor, his death shrouded in mystery. The ensuing intrigue threatens to make a ghost of Allison herself. Portraying the haunted heroine, actress Amanda Ronconi is animated and amiable, emphasizing Allison's role as a caring, compassionate mother. Indeed, Allison is very much a family woman, even if her family is full of phantoms. Nevertheless, as Allison plunges into a plight of peril, Ronconi strikes an increasingly tremulous tone, rife with raw urgency.
Alison Kerby's guesthouse is haunted all year round. Surviving the dead of winter, though? That's a spooky proposition. Even with a blizzard bearing down on New Jersey, Alison can count on at least two guests—Paul and Maxie, the stubborn ghosts who share her shore town inn. Then there's her widowed mother, who hasn't just been seeing ghosts, she's been secretly dating one: Alison's father. But when he stands her up three times in a row, something's wrong. Is he a lost soul…or a missing apparition? Their only lead is an overdramatic spirit—stage name Lawrence Laurentz—who doesn't take direction well and won't talk until they find his killer. Alison will reluctantly play the part of PI, but when the clues take a sinister turn, the writing is on the wall: If Alison can't keep a level head, this will be her father's final act—and maybe her own.

"Snowed in With the Ghosts"
Excellent book for relistening too.
I liked that it took place in the winter and a big storm hits Jersey.
I think Maxie would be my choice as Ronconi really captures the salty ill tempered resentful Maxie.
No but I did not care much for Maxie being able to fly with Alison so far in a storm. Just seemed to not be something a ghost can do. That is the reason for 4 stars instead of 5.
As always a fast and fun book to listen to or read.
I'm a wife a mom and love to read.
"A small step backward."
Unlike the others in Haunted Guesthouse, this book felt flat. It seemed to be missing the humor, the warmth even that the others had. While this so far was my least favorite in the series I do plan to finish and hope Thrill of the Haunt delivers more of what I loved at the start.
"This is Book #4, listen to Old Haunts before this"
Yes, great as usual. She always has a way to bring out the humor of any storyline.
"Loved it!"
I love the subtle humor of this author. The narrator is fabulous. When I listened to the sample, I didn't like her at first, now I don't know why, because she is really very good. I love the relationship between mother and daughter, and their ghostly friends.
"Love books."
This one is a little slower then the others and could have been shorten a bit. But over all I like it and the evolving story lines.
love the series. 2nd time around reading it. Waiting for the next one to come out
"Like listening to a Hallmark mystery movie"
All the Guest/Ghost House mysteries are very enjoyable and lite. Made all the better by Amanda. She reads them all perfectly.
"Series is truly enjoyable."
The characters are great. I live how Amanda Ronconi brings them to life! I look forward to the next book.
"Another great book from E.J. Copperman! Very good!"
Definitely. The audio lends a better "feel" to the overall story and pulls you in.
I think Alison is my favorite because she's what the story is all about, but Maxie is definitely a great character too.
When Maxie "air lifted" Alison to her mother's house when she thought her mother was in trouble.
I laughed at the ridiculousness of the ghosts' antics, especially Lawrence Lawrence. He was such a character in the story.
I thoroughly enjoy listening to this book and the others I've listened to from the same author/narrator, whose narrating style is what makes the book so colorful.
"Fun Series"
I have enjoyed this series quite a bit and this book did not disappoint. Alison is a fun character that is not a swooner but a (sometimes) tough chick. It does not require a huge commitment, it is a light easy mystery. I really do not mean that comment in any sort of derogatory way, sometimes you just want a book that is lighter.
I love when there are conversations going on that not everyone in the room is involved in. They are well written and fun to listen to.
What's dead got to do with it?
"The perfect pick-me-up listen after a long day"
I simply love this series, hasn't been anything but entertaining and witty so far. Lovable characters, hilarious adventures and a bit of family love to top it all.
"a bit slow"
enjoyable but not as good as the others.
it is a ghost needing Alison's help to solve his murder. Alison is also trying to find her father's ghost.
"Surprisingly fascinating story after slow start"
It took me a while to be absorbed by the narrative and characters in this book bought on special offer. In the end I found it enjoyable though it's not the type of story I would normally pick.
"Part IV"
You need nice, wee, comedies at this time of year and this did the job!
The ghosts are bothering the granny now, implying that the dead grandpa may have died under mysterious circumstances and is in some kind of ethereal trouble.
"OK ish"
This is the second in the series that I have read, I was quite amused and enchanted by the first, but I found this one a little tedious and much less fun.
I do think that this is possibly because the first one I read held a certain amount of novelty for me, whereas this didn't have the same element of surprise.
The story was OK, but I found the reading a bit tiresome this time. As I said, I think this is maybe down to my preference rather than the story being less entertaining than the first one I read. (Old Haunts)

They made the drive down to Orlando for the championship... some for a third consecutive year. But the fans set out to do something different this year.
Nelson Lunn, grandfather of two boys in the NFC line up said, "We'd like to take home a little bit of the bacon back to the capital city. Hell, they deserve it up there."
Grandparents, parents and students alike say the third time is a charm. Andrea Ledford, an NFC Mom said, "They have worked very hard. Didn't know if we'd make it back again this year and we did. They've worked hard for it and I'm very proud, very proud."
Jessica and Hayley, two NFC Seniors painted even their own t-shirt with, "Third time is a charm." And when you talk about the weather, it was chilly, but not too cold for some. One group of wild students went without shirts and painted letters on themselves spelling their favorite player.
With this being the holiday season, the fans are festive enough and the team is good enough to make this an NFC Championship holiday each year.
At last year's championship, NFC lost to American Heritage 31 to 28 and the year before that--a loss to Glades Day 42 to 9. And that makes this third time--truly a charm.

Jobs Project
CCH supports jobs initiatives that create living wage employment for low-wage workers.
CCH partners in the Fight for $15 Chicago, in a national movement to raise hourly wages for fast food and retail workers to $15 an hour. CCH mobilizes low-wage workers who are homeless and at-risk.
In 2015, the city of Chicago reported that 14% of shelter residents were employed. This data did not include the share of homeless workers who must live doubled-up with others (per the U.S. Conference of Mayors' 2015 report).
Our Jobs Project partnered with Raise Illinois for its 2014 campaign. We pushed to increase the Illinois minimum wage to at least $10 an hour, up from the $8.25 rate set in July 2010. But state leaders failed to enact a $10 wage, despite overwhelming endorsement by Illinois voters – 87.8% of Chicago voters and 66.4% statewide endorsed the hourly wage increase in November 2014 advisory referendum.
But inspired by the wage campaigns, city of Chicago leaders acted. The City Council adopted staggered wage increases that by 2019 will increase the hourly wage to $13. For those employed in Chicago, the first increase was a $10 hourly wage that became effective July 1, 2015.
In 2010, the CCH Jobs Project proposed and helped design Put Illinois to Work, a subsidized state-run program that employed more than 27,300 people over nine months. Funded with federal stimulus and state grants, Put Illinois to Work was developed by CCH in partnership with several state and non-profit agencies, including the Illinois Department of Human Services.
CCH proposed Put Illinois to Work based on a national model it had advocated in partnership with the Center for Community Change in Washington, D.C. Put Illinois to Work employed low-income parents and youth in $10-an-hour jobs for 30 to 40 hours per week.

Unity in the community
Published: Sunday, December 28, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, December 28, 2008 at 4:35 p.m.
Kwanzaa is a festival celebrating the unity of a community. Seven principles are celebrated, including unity, self determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith. The celebration unites the community and has been doing so for 17 years in Hendersonville. The festival is a week long, running from Dec. 26 until Jan. 1. This year, the event was held at Daddy Ds restaurant. A feast was served on Saturday.
Photo Galleries
(We celebrate) because of its meaning that was handed down from the forefathers and foremothers, said Deloris Sitton.
Its to celebrate our heritage and culture and to pull together with all nationalities, said Wilhelmina Mills.
The event includes tasting of African-American foods, dancing and music, teaching the children of history and celebrating unity and each other, according to Diane Caldwell, one of the organizers. They honor elders in the community and name a business of the year. This years celebrated business was Daddy Ds on Seventh Avenue.
Were coming to support the efforts because it is in keeping with the principles, said Charlotte Cato.
African and Caribbean music plays in the background as the room at Daddy Ds filled with the traditional Southern foods that mark the celebration: Rice, fried chicken, cabbage, cornbread.
Basically, food we grew up on, said Corinthia King.
A raffle was held to help a member of the community, Tiffany Albany, who was injured in an accident on Kanuga Road. During the celebration, unity candles are lit. Seven candles are used to symbolize the seven principles.
Its to pull all people together, added Sitton.
Were all the human race, said Caldwell.
I breathe, you breathe. I speak, you speak, she added.
The Kwanzaa festival was started by Dr. Ron Karenga in 1966, according to Caldwell. It was first a holiday to unite members of the African-American community, but has grown to unite members of all communities.
We need to embrace each other and learn about each other, said Caldwell.
The event in Hendersonville was organized by the Yahyah Rasheedi Inc., which is Swahili for Gods Gift of Good Counselors. The group also organizes the Harambee festival in July.

Home of Hope's mission is to provide educational opportunities to empower disadvantaged and underprivileged youth to become self-sustaining adults of tomorrow. We believe all children deserve the opportunity to build better lives.
Home of Hope is a 501(c)(3) California based nonprofit that ignites new possibilities and brings security and skills to vulnerable South Asian children through support of high quality educational programs across India. We focus on girls and children who have been orphaned, abandoned or have disabilities. Our dedicated HOH team, all with strong roots in India, identify organizations that exemplify integrity, accountability and commitment to impactful change. We raise funds for these projects and complementary programs, like our innovative Educate to Empower (E2E) program, and monitor their progress as they serve India's most vulnerable children. With minimal overhead (we are entirely volunteer driven) we have brought incredible change to the lives of over 100,000 of India's youth.
Home of Hope builds bridges between our California community and the children/projects we support in India. Home of Hope programs are designed and implemented by committed volunteers with expertise in many educational arenas. Though our Educate to Empower (E2E) program, professional educators and youth mentors we coach use long-distance learning strategies to build relationships and teach English in partner schools. Our youth chapter is full of passionate and dedicated young adults who fundraise, mentor, and volunteer for the greater Home of Hope good.
Our projects spread over multiple states in India, and serve over 30,000 children of all ages. All projects provide quality education for children, specifically girls, through four core areas: computer education, vocational training, disability and mental health, and K-12 education. Home of Hope projects bring safety and new opportunities by nurturing children, building their confidence and providing well-tested educational opportunities – especially for those who are deaf, blind, abandoned, orphaned, physically or mentally challenged, or otherwise disadvantaged.
Home of Hope's strength comes from our dedicated volunteers. From our annual events to our youth chapter, we need passionate people to help make our vision a reality. Find out how you can get involved!
All our projects are carefully vetted and every request for funding goes through a strict checklist that monitors compliance with our organization goals and fiscal responsibility.

Clarke was forced off after 30 minutes of Saturday's 5-1 win at Carlisle after suffering a head injury in a clash with Lee Miller which saw the Carlisle forward sent off. He went to hospital but travelled back on the team coach.
Elliot Omozusi replaced him on the day and could deputise from the start, while De'Reece Vanderhyde offers further options at the back.
O's boss Russell Slade is expected to shuffle his pack further and could include midfielders Dean Cox and Burnley loanee Marvin Bartley in his starting line-up.

In January of 2007, an experienced friend taught me the basics and I caught a hold of it with some repeated viewing of the videos on knittinghelp.com. I learned how to crochet at a tween and picked it up again after I began knitting.
I tend to gravitate toward cotton and merino wool.
With loads of time to myself to knit? Sounds like heaven. Perhaps I'd actually attempt to make a sweater or a more time consuming project.
I've hit the lifelong passion stage, but it tends to go in ebbs and flows.
No answer yet
As a working mother of 2 young children, I keep my projects small and simple. I look forward to the day when I have the skill and time to take on some of the beautiful projects I see my comrades make, but for now I just bask in their lovely company.

Microsoft planning a Blu-Ray Xbox 360 – crazy talk?
Posted by Devin Coldewey

That eminently creditable source, "insiders at Microsoft," has suggested that the fan-favorite Redmond company is working on a Blu-Ray flavor of the 360. Sony says they'd love to "welcome Microsoft to the Blu-Ray stable," which has uncomfortable connotations and implies a pimp-like status for Sony. Well, maybe they have the right after Toshiba did its thing the other day. We'll be on the lookout for further news on this strangely friendly rumor.

i agree!my best guess is 23.only time will tell!
Just curious,why do you think AKS is worth$23.00 a share?Are you aware their libilities are approx. 2 BILLION more than their assets?Where do they derive that kind of value?
maybe you are asking the wrong person.maybe you should ask the person that bought 150000 share @ closing to day. check after hour and last few trades at closing.http://www.nasdaq.com/aspxcontent/ExtendedTradingTrades.aspx?mode=frameset&kind=&timeframe=&intraday=&charttype=&splits=&earnings=&movingaverage=&lowerstudy=&comparison=&index=&symbol=CD&symbol=GLW&symbol=TWX&symbol=OMG&symbol=AKS&symbol=REV&symbol=LU&symbol=MWY&symbol=TUNE&symbol=&FormType=&mkttype=after&pathname=&page=afterhours&selected=AKS

Born and raised in rural western Quebec, Thea Gregory moved to the big city at 17 to attend college. She has had an eclectic career ever since, and has studied computer networking and physics and worked in technical support, sales, and teaching. She presently lives in Montreal, Quebec. Thea enjoys zombies, cycling, reading, walking, cooking and dreaming up twisted scenarios for future projects.
Review by:
L. E. White
on March 23, 2012 :
In the second story, Thea takes on the story as the director for a local lab that is being commandeered to run testing on samples from the outbreak. Of course, typical zombie hi-jinks ensue as a staff member has been infected. The internal attack occurs as well as the inevitable overrun of the facility. The only thing these medical researchers manage to do is get evacuated. Anything else would be a spoiler so I will stop there.
Now, I felt the story itself stayed in the well traveled plane of modern zombie fiction. Nothing in the plot lines stood out but everything was well done so it remained enjoyable. One thing that did happen was a couple of looks at the main character. There was what appeared to be a hinting of sexual tension that wasn't given time to mature. I personally think it could have been explored but that would have required the group to remain in-tact and in location so I can see why this didn't happen. The rate of infection really suggested that this should have been ignored.
The other look I could have done without. There was time spent on the more mundane elements of the facility director's job. In the beginning of a zombie apocalypse I realize that many people would continue to attempt to handle business as usual but I just don't want to read about it. This is a small complaint since it was also a small element of the story.
So, how would I rate the book? It might surprise you but the answer is better than the first. While "Locked In" had a better overall plot and a fresher take on the genre than "Locked Out" did there is a noticeable difference in the quality of the writing between the first and second. You get a feeling of the author's style having matured that was impressive. I still have the third book to read and review but I am hoping to see this trend continue.
A good read. You should give this four out of five star work a try. If you aren't a fan of zombies, The Zombie Bedtime Stories just might convert you.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Early 2010, I filled out an online form requesting information about the home loan modification program. Soon after, I was bombarded by phone calls and e-mails from a man by the name of Rich Aronovitch at a company called Janian & Associates.
They claim to be a law firm, but you can never, ever get ahold of the lawyer, Armen Janian, which is the reason I am filing this Consumer Complaint against a Business/Company, in case that is his angle in attempts not to be associated with this leg of the business...but the name of his business clearly indicates he IS associated and the way Rich persuaded me to go with his firm had a lot to do with the fact that he was representing a law firm, with a lawyer who was a member of the CA State Bar Assoc. for X amount of years, who knew the nuances of this modification program and how to get cases approved, who I should trust above anyone with lesser credentials...blah blah blah. From what I understand now, CA companies are prohibited from collecting upfront fees associated with home loan modifications.
Please read all the complaints from the people from whom this 'firm' DID in fact not only collect upfront fees with the promise to refund if they were unable to obtain a modification, but also who do NOT honor their promise to refund. I hired this firm on Feb. 5th of 2010 for $2500.00 with the understanding (and ambiguous contractual agreement) that I would recieve a refund if they were unsuccessful. They were not only unsuccessful once, they were unsuccessful 3 times and I requested a refund in writing and by phone after each of these 3 times.
They misrepresented my income the 1st time, lied to me and told me I had a 30% reduction the second time, and just gave up and went with the denial the 3rd time. After each request for a refund they would just put me off, acting like if I pulled out now, it would all be a waste of time because my file was considered to be 'in review'.
Once I threatened to file formal complaints, I did receive an e-mail from Erica Rodriguez apologizing for the miscommunication and that I would, in fact, receive a full refund. That was October 26th, 2010 and I still haven't received a refund and they won't return my repeated attempts to get a response from them by phone, fax and e-mail. It's like they are thumbing their nose at all the stupid people who came to them for help.
Please look into taking action against this organization, whatever it is. Mr. Janian is a member of your State Bar and you should see to it that he upholds the higher standard that we as consumers should trust to be associated with the legal profession. He has hurt many, MANY people. Again, start with the BBB website and you will have a very good idea of what he has been up to. I have not contacted another agency for assistance, but I will if I need to. I have not contacted an attorney, as I shouldn't have to retain a 2nd attorney to get back $$ that this one fraudulently received and is keeping from me. No court action pending....no lost lawsuit in this matter. I would like a full refund in the amount of $2500 + 1 full year of interest. Thank you.

For my junior year, I decided to make the move to an off campus apartment instead of staying in the dorms. Other than having my own bedroom, the biggest perk is that I have a full kitchen now. No more two foot mini-fridge and nonexistent freezer. The transition from having a meal plan to cooking for yourself can be challenging, but it is certainly fun to learn how to cook.

One of the best moments for us was mid-May of 2013. We were tucking in Sam for the night and in her perfect soft little girl voice she said "Mommy…I…love…you". I whipped around and turned on the light exclaiming "what did you say!!??" She giggled at my excitement. I tucked her in again and left her room crying almost hysterically. My non-verbal, minimal affection, autistic baby girl just told me in a complete sentence that she loved me. For the first time ever she told me that she loved me.

Supported housing and social care come together for one page profiles
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Care and Support and also in Housing
Supported housing and social care come together
North West members of a national membership organisation for providers of supported housing recently came together for an event that explored the use of 'one page profiles' (OPPs) in the sector.
Sitra's event, held in partnership with the national social care charity Community Integrated Care (CIC) and one age profile pioneers Helen Sanderson Associates, took place this week, marking the end of Sitra's campaign to introduce 100 new OPPs to the supported housing sector.
It was held at CIC's head office in Cheshire and was attended by senior representatives from Places for People, Bay Housing, Great Places, Nacro and Helena Housing.
OPPs are a tool that are used to understand the individuality of a person, highlighting what people admire about them, what is important to them and how they can best be supported.
They are used extensively in the social care sector, enabling care providers to ensure that their services properly respond to the needs, personality and aspirations of the people they support.
Sitra is aiming to increase their use in the supported housing sector – with the aim of housing providers developing more productive, person-centred relationships with their tenants and the care providers they alongside.
The event saw Vic Rayner, chief executive of Sitra, showcase to guests her vision for supported housing providers adopting OPPs.
Senior leaders from CIC also shared their experience of undertaking a major personalisation project, which includes the significant aim of all staff and people supported by the charity having their own one page profile within the year.
Every guest was given training on how to develop OPPs by Louise Close from Helen Sanderson Associates. This training saw many of the supported housing providers at the event commit to exploring the use of the tool in their organisation.
CIC also agreed to become a member of Sitra and to support the organisation and its members on their journey to deliver more person-centred housing support.
Vic Rayner said: "Sitra are delighted at the way in which the supported housing sector has risen to the one page profile challenge. Providers from across the country have joined us to take this important first step towards personalisation.
"Through this work, we have been able to identify existing excellent practice, support others to produce OPPs and encourage a whole host of new champions who have committed to take this first step to personalisation within their organisations.
"As of today, we have been able to identify nearly 10,000 profiles in use within the sector! Great start. The work will continue. We couldn't have done any of this without the support of Helen Sanderson Associates, and were delighted to be able to jointly host this event with our newest member, CIC."
Catherine Murray-Howard, CIC deputy chief executive, said: "At CIC, we believe that we can only deliver the best services to the people we support, if we work in close collaboration with both the individual supported and their housing provider. Through care providers and housing providers both adopting OPPs, we will share a common understanding of the people we support and be able to work together more effectively. We would like to commend Sitra for their inspirational support of this initiative."
Helen Sanderson, chief executive of Helen Sanderson Associates, added: "OPPs have made a difference to countless organisations and individuals across the health and social care sector, facilitating better services and more productive relationships.
"Sitra have recognised the power of this simple tool and passionately believe in the potential it has for enhancing the service received by tenants of supported housing services. We would like to thank CIC, Sitra and all of the housing providers who took part in this event, for their time and consideration."

"Moscow - Rhone-Alpes" Top 5 Page for this destination Rhône-Alpes by Kuznetsov_Sergey
Rhône-Alpes Travel Guide: 2,585 reviews and 6,808 photos
To reach Lyons from Nice, it is necessary to cross spurs of the Alpes. The local province refers - Rhone-Alpes.
Though mountains are also low, but the road passes through picturesque gorges so the river running below left sometimes on tens meters in a precipice. We were told, that Napoleon lead in due time the army on this road, having caused a panic at Italians and Austrians who thought, that the army would go seacoast. However the march-throw on the shortest way through mountains brought military success to Napoleon.
We were already a little tired of mountain road when we have been arranged a green parking near a picturesque lake. Surrounded by green mountains, the lake had a very cut up and steep coast. I have taken advantage of the moment, and have quickly left from our group in a deserted place. Here I dived into the water. In spite of the fact that it was a mountain lake, water was warm enough.
I have already a little weaned from bathing in fresh water, but felt huge pleasure. It was a pity to look at the fellow travellers who the walked at the bus the whole hour, and did not test a charm of freshening bathing.

You wouldn't want to be a nervous driver on that Mountain road! The scenery is really nice.
Haha, very good idea to have a small swim in freshwater! After that you were certainly in much better condition that your companions!
Very beautiful mountain scenery there.
an interesting page and strange to learn that alpine roads were built in order to rush through Napoleon's troups...
Beautiful landscapes in your travelogue. LOL when you told about you jumping into the water. I can picture that in my mind's eye. Thanks for this vitual tour of Rhone-Alpes.

By Sgt. Stephanie van GeeteJanuary 19, 2009
CAMP TAJI, Iraq - Staff Sgt. Gary Hope, senior power generation equipment repairer for 277th Aviation Support Battalion, 10th Combat Aviation Brigade, is preparing to return to his unit on Contingency Operating Base Speicher this week after spending the last two and a half months attached to the Iraqi Army Support and Service Institute (IASSI).
The Institute, established March 15, 2005 by the Iraqi Ministry of Defense, was created to train IA leaders, but has since expanded to provide initial-entry training in logistics and administration, food services, medical and maintenance occupational specialties. U.S. Army personnel assigned to IASSI do not teach the students directly, but rather act as advisors to Iraqi instructors.
"Basically, I advise the two power generation equipment repairer instructors on how to improve their classes, and assist them in getting training aides or whatever they need to make their classes as modern as possible," Hope explained.
"We don't teach - we can't. We have to step back, and let them take responsibility for their own training." One way the advisors help instructors is by developing programs of instruction built around the material that needs to be taught and the amount of time the instructor has to teach, but based on training models developed by the U.S. Army. "In the new Iraqi army, their whole education system has changed," said Lt. Col. Nora Garono, senior U.S. advisor to IASSI, pointing out that under the old regime where leaders were appointed to their positions, career progression had little to do with what you knew and more to do with who you knew.
"For a strong and democratic Iraq, we're trying to influence them into a training model similar to our own. Institutional training is part of that sustain model."
But there are obstacles to overcome, including lack of resources, training aids and time.
"Iraqi soldiers have a lot less time to learn than U.S. Soldiers in similar military occupational specialties," Hope said.
"Power generation equipment repairers in the U.S. Army go through six months of training; the Iraqi students get 21 days of instruction."
Although he wishes he had more time at IASSI to help develop a power generation course that will make the most of three weeks of instruction, Hope said with all the technological advancements being made, there will never be enough time to teach the mechanics everything they need to know. For this reason, the POI he is leaving behind focuses on power generation theory.
"The biggest problem these students face is dealing with modern power generation equipment," he said.
"From what they have told me, most Iraqi homes are powered by smaller, older generators; but the Iraqi army compounds deal with commercial generators. They do the same things, but all the components and parts are different, so we're trying to teach basics and theory of power generation that they can apply to any model." For Hope's POI to become a standard training module it must first be translated into Arabic, approved by IASSI's U.S. chain of command, and then forwarded to the Iraqi Army for final approval. "We can't force training on them," he said.
"They have to accept it, but training is most important when standing up a new army like this. We're trying to give them guidance to organize and structure an army able to sustain itself; but it's hard."
Hope recalled one of his first experiences at the institute, when he was helping an instructor fix a broken generator. After identifying the problem, Hope told the instructor which part they needed. The instructor motioned for Hope to follow him, and said they were going to go pick up the part; but instead of going to a supply warehouse or store, he led Hope to a yard filled with "dead" generators and began scavenging for the needed piece.
That first encounter gave Hope a clear idea of the kind of difficulties the new Iraqi army is facing, but also how determined and resourceful its people are.
"I respect what they go through," he said. "They're going to do the best they can with what they've got, but that's not much. I took things for granted in the U.S. Army, where if you ask for something, you get it. For them, it's very difficult; but they do what they've got to do to keep their generators running." But Hope believes the work he and other U.S. advisors are doing at IASSI is making a difference.
"We're making history here," agreed Chief Warrant Officer 5 William Davenport, senior maintenance advisor. "I reflect back to the 1700s, when our American Army was forming. It's going to take the Iraqis a little while to get there, but I don't think it's going to take as long as some people think. They're very resourceful, and they have the benefit our 200-plus years of experience."
Hope said he was happy to lend his knowledge and expertise to help another developing army grow.
"I definitely feel like I've helped out here," he said. "My goal was to teach them to be self-sufficient, and to know that when I walk away, they'll be able to manage on their own.
"Of course I wish I had more time," Hope added, "but I'm needed back at my unit. I wish I could do both jobs, but I'm sure these guys will be just fine. They're running the show now."

A report in today's Daily Mail says that despite Steve Gibson's reluctance to let Stewart Downing go to Spurs, Keith Lamb has told the Spurs chairman if they put £6m of the £10m up front they can have him. This is evidently because Downing has 'set his heart on a move to Spurs'. I cannot see how the Boro fans will accept this from Downing; a move to Man Utd (to replace Giggs) or Chelsea or Real Madrid they could accept as it would be a major career move and no one would wish to stand in the guy's way, but Spurs???..... a one trick pony side if ever there was one. Undoubtedly the press reports about Jols interest has acted as catalyst but one wonders how much Downing's exposure to the big names of the England squad has had a bearing on his apparent change of heart. But one also wonders how much his girlfriend Michaela Henderson-Thynne's exposure to the WAG culture and the inherent publicity has affected his judgement. The bright lights of London and the propensity of opportunities to spend a multi-thousand pound monthly salary must blow away the opportunities presented by poor old Middlesbrough. So Spurs are benefiting from their postal address rather than the brilliance of their football and their groaning trophy cabinet.If Boro let Downing go it has nothing to do with football on the pitch and everything to do with the bank balance.
