A week after Ronald Reagan's 100th birthday celebration, comparisons between presidents Obama and Reagan continue.
The conversation began when Obama praised Reagan in a USA Today op-ed. He commended Reagan's leadership, his confidence in and optimism for America, and his great ability to communicate his vision for the country. Reaganites like myself appreciate these sentiments.
But so far, the differences between the two presidents are still huge. Begin with the economy. Reagan and Obama both inherited deep and brutal recessions. But the first six recovery quarters look completely different for each president.
So far, real GDP has averaged only 3 percent annually for Obama. Employment as defined by nonfarm payrolls has increased by a paltry 121,000.
On the other hand, going back to Reagan's first six recovery quarters, real GDP averaged 7.7 percent annually while nonfarm payrolls rose by 5.3 million.
No two situations are exactly alike. Reagan inherited massive double-digit inflation with 20 percent interest rates. Obama was left with a colossal financial meltdown. But Reagan's economic vision put private-sector free-enterprise at the center. Obama has chosen a massive expansion of government power.
These are huge differences. One succeeded, while thus far the other has not. While Obama's first act was an $800 billion government-spending package, one of Reagan's first decisions was a near $50 billion domestic-spending cut ($100 billion constant dollars today). Obama went for a nationalized health-care plan, energy cap-and-tax-and-trade, and pro-union card check. Reagan ended wage and price controls, deregulated all energy prices, terminated the Synthetic Fuels Corp., and fired the striking air-traffic controllers. Big differences.
Drawing from the work of Arthur Laffer and Robert Mundell, Reagan saw the economic-growth benefits of limited government, lower tax rates, and a dollar as good as gold. Gold prices plunged as Reagan and Paul Volcker worked to vanquish inflation. Ever-soaring inflation was the cruelest tax hike of all. But in the Reagan years the inflation rate dropped from near 13 percent to as low as 2 percent — a huge disinflation tax cut. Accompanied by lower marginal tax rates, the Reagan policies sparked a powerful recovery in business and jobs.
Reagan slashed tax rates across-the-board for individuals, investors, and businesses. At the margin, his reforms lowered the top personal rate from 70 percent to 28 percent. And he left a simple two-bracket tax code that cut thousands of pages of IRS rules and regulations.
And while the top individual tax rate was slashed under Reagan, individual income-tax revenues increased from roughly $300 billion to $450 billion. In other words, the Laffer curve worked. With surging economic growth, the incentives from lower tax rates actually raised tax revenues.
Mr. Obama, on the other hand, campaigned to raise tax rates on successful earners and investors. Along with the dozens of taxes legislated into Obamacare, these are all job stoppers.
Only after the 2010 election landslide did Mr. Obama finally agree to extend the 2003 Bush tax rates for a couple of years. But, he continues his pledge to hike those taxes again when the deal expires in 2012.
From his experience as a movie actor facing a 90 percent tax rate, Reagan always encouraged success. Everyone's success. And he came to believe that if it pays more after tax to work and invest, then people will do so. Of course, Reagan increased the defense budget to defeat the Soviets. But during the seven fat years of growth — to use the late Robert Bartley's term — overall federal spending dropped from 23 percent of GDP to 21 percent. (Obama has taken the size of government to 25 percent of GDP.)
As for the budget deficit, Reagan left it around 3 percent of GDP — almost exactly where he inherited it.
Overall, Reagan's policies created 21 million new jobs as real GDP averaged 3.5 percent annually during the seven fat years of recovery. The unemployment rate dropped to 5.3 percent from 10.7 percent. The stock market rose nearly 200 percent. And household net worth expanded by $8 trillion.
Quintessentially, Mr. Reagan was a private-sector, free-enterprise man. His policies of low tax rates, lighter regulation, domestic-spending limits, and low inflation rescued the country from the malaise of stagflation. Meanwhile, his military build-up, tough diplomacy, and "evil empire" battle cry defeated Soviet communism. Reagan was an optimist, but a tough-minded one. He believed in American exceptionalism. He also fervently believed in freedom.
Since last November's Tea Party election, Obama has read about Reagan, talked about Reagan, and very cautiously moved economic policy in the direction of Reagan. I am open-minded. Let's hope the current president stays on his new Reagan path.
But let's never forget: Ronald Reagan saved the country 30 years ago. He also saved our future. Hopefully Mr. Obama will learn from that.

This is a painful article for liberals. The silly accusations that Reagan was some sort of "puppet" is absurd and ignorant. He stared down a recession, and he won. He stared down the striking air traffic controllers, and he won. He stared down the Soviet Union, in its entirety, and he won. And he did it with class and dignity. This is the worst possible scenario for the snickering, juvenile, twisted in the head progressive movement of today.

Okay. I'm having some sort of a problem with my D40 lately. After 29,000 shots (give or take a few hundred), my shutter button is getting harder and harder to press and sometimes when I do press hard enough, it takes two consecutive shots (I shoot in Single Shot mode but it behaved like a Continuous Shooting). The consecutive shooting is rare but it's just getting harder and harder to press. So my question is... does it mean that my shutter mechanism is coming to an end of its life or it's something else.

I would think it is an issue with the shutter button itself and not the shutter. Either something is going amiss with the button mechanism or the switch the button activates.At least that is my thoughts.Pete

As stated, it sounds like a button or switch issue. I'm thinking a bit of contamination, lint, dust/dirt, or the like has migrated around the edges causing some restriction of free movement.

I am not familiar with the D40 but perhaps the shutter selector has got dislodged to half way between single and continuous shooting.If you turn the body upside down, gently tap the base and use a soft brush to get under the shutter release button you might get lucky and dislodge any debris.

Update on my camera. I couldn't take it anymore, the shutter release button was giving me problems so much that I just had to send it in to Nikon. Two days later, Nikon calls me up and told me that they need to replace the "Release Switch FPC" (whatever that is), and total cost would be 60 USD. I said, "Fine, go ahead". Next day, I got another call to ask me to pick it up. Fantastic. When I got there, I was told that they replaced the switch, upgraded my firmware (mine was 1.11) and cleaned my sensor. I'm happy again.

A Day No Pigs Would Die
by Robert Newton Peck
A Day No Pigs Would Die Community Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
"Well, you be friends with Mr. Tanner. Neighbors and all. But we keep this fence up like it was war. I guess that humans are the only things on earth that take everything they own and fence it off."
"Not true," Papa said.
"Animals don't put up fences."
"Yes, they do. In the spring, a female robin won't fly to a male until he owns a piece of the woods. He's got to fence it off."
"I didn't know that."
"Lots of times when you hear that old robin sing, what he's singing about is…keep off my tree. That whistle you hear is his fence." (3.7-12)
Papa says that fences—that is, rules and boundaries to keep people's business separated—are not only useful, but natural. And hey, Shmoop likes birds as much as the next person. If the robins do it, it's definitely good enough for us. (Except for the whole pooping on people's heads thing.)
Quote #2
"Then it isn't like war."
"It's a peaceable war. If I know Benjamin Franklin Tanner, he'd fret more than me if his cows found my corn. He'd feel worse than if it was the other way round."
"He's a good neighbor, Papa."
"And he wants a fence to divide his and mine, same as I do. He knows this. A fence sets men together, not apart." (3.17-20)
Part of being a good neighbor, to Papa, is making sure that you have structures in place to keep you and yours out of your neighbor's area. Sure, maybe bringing some brownies over once in a while will win you points, but generally, Papa thinks you should give people their space.
Quote #3
"We thank you, Brother Tanner," said Papa. "But it's not the Shaker Way to take frills for being neighborly. All that Robert done was what any farmer would do for another. It don't add up to payment or due." (3.39)
Okay, so they keep a respectful distance, but at the same time they're careful to be neighborly, lending a hand when needed (even if that hand ends up being bitten by an angry cow). Sound complicated? Well, in A Day No Pigs Would Die, it's all just part of the bargain.

Despite the considerable volume of health research involving the indigenous peoples of North America during the last half century, few attempts have been made to synthesize this body of work into a cohesive whole. T. Kue Young's The Health of Native Americans: Toward a Biocultural Epidemiology is an excellent synopsis of the health status of Native Americans in the United States and Canada. Young's goals were "to take a critical and comprehensive look at what is known about the state of health of Native Americans, why certain diseases are common, and how best to prevent and control them." To varying degrees, he has succeeded in reaching each of these goals.
The book includes a general introduction to Native Americans, which concisely describes a number of cultural, social, and demographic features of the indigenous populations of North America. This introduction will serve to orient readers unfamiliar with the field to a

Alex King has a tantalizingly great plugin called WP-Last-Visit. On his blog, he notes that he has only released the old version, because he does not appreciate rude comments asking for help. So I am not asking him for help. I am instead asking here.
I have a few problems right off the bat. I am using Wp 2.1.1. Installation and Activation of the plugin went fine. But when I follow step 3, adjusting for the age of the documentation, my blog fails to load properly.
Step 3.
Add this line within the <head> tags of your index.php and wp-comments-popup.php pages.
<?php require(bloginfo('url;').'/wp-content/plugins/wp-last-visit.php?type=js'); ?>
I put the code into header.php, as there are no <head> tags in my index.php. Still nothing. I changed require to include, and the page loads, leading me to believe that the path was incorrect. I did some research and changed bloginfo('url;') to bloginfo('wpurl') as my install is in a non-standard location. Still nothing.
So I hardcoded the path into the require. Now it at least gets the file (it outputs some of the file's code, the js part, so I know it is finding the file, more on that in a later post).
So, please, someone explain to me why this:
require 'http://mysiteurl.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-last-visit.php?type=js';
works, but this:
<?php require (bloginfo('wpurl').'/wp-content/plugins/wp-last-visit.php?type=js'); ?>
does not, when the url used is exactly the same (I have checked).

Tractor Boys boss Mick McCarthy's will be the happier of the two managers after gaining an away point that bolsters their own battle against the drop.
Darren Ferguson's side were the first to reveal their attacking intent when a shot from Danny Swanson within the first two minutes brought a desperate block from Ipswich's Guirane N'Daw. Tommy Rowe then tried his luck from 25 yards as the hosts stamped their early authority on the clash.
Ipswich had barely got out of the blocks but at last made their presence felt after 18 minutes when Aaron Cresswell's effort from more than 35 yards out cleared the crossbar.
The visitors were at last starting to put themselves about and Frank Nouble was unlucky to see his shot from distance rebound from the woodwork after 26 minutes.
Jay Tabb also went close for the Tractor Boys with a 12-yard effort following a corner from Andy Drury as the increasingly adventurous visitors started to turn the screw.
Ferguson's side had their backs to the wall and Robert Olejnik had to save again from a Nouble header six minutes from the break.
But Peterborough were a different proposition just after the break. Swanson's shot was blocked by Drury and, with Ipswich on the back foot, Tommy Smith had to put his body in the way of a Nathaniel Mendez-Laing shot from 12 yards.
The hosts went close shortly after the hour when Rowe's 20-yard effort brought out the best in Ipswich keeper Stephen Henderson, but a draw was a fair result as both sides struggled for precision in front of goal.

Park at the Research Operation Services building near the rose garden. To your right is a garden path. At the beginning of the pathway you will see a stone pillar that reads, "The Million Flower Pathway". This is the path you will follow. At the first fork, turn left. You will see a beautiful pond on your right just a few steps ahead. Walk past the pond and keep following the trail straight. Up ahead you will see the "Jack and Deb Miller Pavilion". Keep going straight. Next you will see two stone pathways. Follow the one to your left. That path will have another fork in it almost immediately, stay to the left once more. Now you will once again another fork in the path, and you will turn right. Following this new path you will eventually reach an outdoor amphitheater. Go down all of the stone steps and then follow the green grass trail to your right. Once the grass trail ends and you hit pavement, you will need to turn left and go down the hill. Once you reach the bottom of the hill, turn left and stay on that until you see a pipe with concrete around the top edge of it, that goes underneath the highway. Go to the creek and waddle your way through the tunnel. Be careful though! Sometimes there may be water in this area. At the end of the tunnel, you will see a little pond area. To find the box, look around the right side of the tunnel. It is sitting under a few rocks on the hill. Please rehide well! Hope you enjoyed!

Feds indict 12 in latest effort to root out Texas' entrenched home health care fraud
Federal authorities, in their latest clampdown on rampant home-health care fraud in Texas, have indicted 12 East Texas residents they say were part of yet another sprawling scheme.
The dozen worked as "patient recruiters" for Houston-based Three Angels Home Health Inc. whose owner, Grace Munthali, was sentenced to five years in federal prison earlier this month. Munthali paid the defendants about $500 apiece for signing up Medicare beneficiaries as Three Angels "patients," according to the indictment. In turn, the defendants paid the beneficiaries $100 to $200 to participate in the scheme.
"In many instances, the defendants and other co-conspirators recruited Medicare beneficiaries that were not eligible for home health services," court records say. "The beneficiaries' primary physicians would not certify that (the) services were medically necessary. Three Angels billed Medicare despite such refusals."
Named in the indictment were Lizzy Sirls of Cuney, Pandra Wade of Lufkin, Tammy Washington of Nacogdoches, Ronald Russell of San Augustine, Nichelle Fofana of Nacogdoches, Victoria Sterns of Lufkin, Sheneki McCollister of Center, Katrina Watts of Lufkin, Meoshe Goodwin of Tenaha, Latosha Gray of Jacksonville, Yulanda Nash of Nacogdoches, and Marcus Chukwu of Sugarland.
Home-health care fraud has been so entrenched in Texas that federal regulators early last year placed a moratorium on home-health agencies startups in Dallas and Houston areas. Last July the ban was extended another six months.
The Three Angels investigation was led by Special Agent Jack Geren of the Dallas office of the inspector general for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

It's format is different from your traditional concert styles in that there are not different sets, all the artists share the stage at one time and each play one song, consecutively, and have the opportunity to improv on each others songs. The outcome is something completely different an unique each time, so fans of the series love to see their favorite artists in this setting. The atmosphere if the S.I.T.R. is a true listening room.

We were happily chomping our way through the 3AM Easter egg collection when these pictures of super-slender Danielle O'Hara landed on our desks and we all looked up in panic.
The gorgeous mum-of-three decided today was the day to show off her gym progress (thanks a lot, Dan) with a before and after shot of her tummy.
"I've achieved this in 5 months #proud#hardwork," the model captioned the snap, which shows her slim tummy five months ago, and her perfectly chiseled abs now (we'd be happy with either.)
The gorgeous WAG posted a raunchy snap of her in some very skimpy and frilly underwear last week too.
She wrote: "3 children later hard work paying off #summer #vegas #LA #portugal."
Alright, showoff.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Although they want you to believe they are in the U.S., World Wide Source is actually located in Montreal, Quebec and operates telemarketing operations in Nova Scotia as well. Econonomic development initiatives provided by the government allow such companies to locate in prime office space and enjoy substantial tax breaks.
They mailed an invoice, dated June 29, 2001.
We paid that invoice by check at the end of July.
We were then contacted AGAIN by a woman representing Business to Business who stated that we needed to pay an additional $399.95 to be included in the second book. At that point I said NO, we had already paid $399.95 and had been led to believe that that was it. I told their representative at that time that I did NOT want to be bothered again. She assured me that I would not.
I never received a formal contract from them. I was not billed again.
We actually received the directories one year later. July 2002. We were listed in American Business Index but not in Business to Business. The "American Business Index" was pretty lame--just a list of companies that had been snookered. Not a real database of any value.
On August 29,2002 one of their people called and asked if I wanted to continue advertising in Business to Business. I replied that I did not know we were in Business to Business and he said: Oh yes, and you owe a balance of $399.95.
The balance amount made me suspicious so I asked if he was with World Wide Source. He said No. He claimed we had a contract for two years, which they had not presented, and I have not signed. I had not been billed for anything other than the initial invoice, and assumed my discussion with their representative a year ago was the end of the matter.
When I tried to discuss this problem I was greeted by resistance from their people, who simply repeated their initial assertions.
On November 1, 2002 I recieved two calls from someone asking if I wished to continue my listing. When I said no they said O.K. but you owe us a balance. I was never billed for this balance. I have told their people I do not want to be bothered by you again. I have made myself quite clear, but the ONLY thing "World Wide Source" has made clear is that they feel I owe them additional money.
When I asked their representative to clarify the situation she hung up. Therefore I am limiting my replies to them to writing so there are no further misunderstandings.
I plan to contact the Attorney General's office of the State of Virginia concerning this matter.
If "World Wide Source" wishes to claim that this company owes them any additional money, they will need to provide a signed contract proving that we indeed obligated ourselves to any further relationship with their company.
I feel that I have attempted to act in good faith with these people. They are rude! They are masters of intimidation! You cannot win a discussion of your problem with their "customer care" representative. Don't even try. Go directly to your state Attorney General's office. Hopefully they can help.

Is this the person who is actually in charge of the Dartmouth Call Centre? This might be someone who should be contacted if you are having a problem with the company:
Claude Berthiaume
Vice President of Operations And Development
World Wide Source
45 Queen Square
10th Floor, Dartmouth

Interesting Article I Found Online:
By Chad Lucas
The Commoner
When Claude Berthiaume decided to expand his call centre business, World Wide Source, outside of Montreal, he looked at 29 cities before settling in the Halifax area. Four months after opening a centre in Dartmouth, he opened a second two weeks ago in Purdy's Wharf on the Halifax waterfront.
Berthiaume's company, a business-to-business sales firm, is one of 12 call centres that have opened in Halifax since 1995, bringing 5,000 jobs into the city. Another five centres have opened around the province, creating an additional 2,200 jobs in Nova Scotia. Economics, education, unemployment rates, and good old-fashioned work ethic have conspired to make the Maritimes - particularly Halifax and Moncton a hot spot in the call centre industry. And while call centres still carry a certain stigma in many people's eyes, local business analysts think their arrival is bene- ficial for Halifax. "Anytime we can put human beings to work and help them build their skills, it's a good thing," says Brian Crawley, president of the Atlantic Institute for Market Studies (AIMS). "It's a big mistake to denigrate these things."'
Saint Mary's University marketing professor Wayde Crawford says companies with call centres - many of which are American - are making a big drive to reduce costs. They go where the labour force is cheapest, and geography is no
longer a boundary.
"If you're paying someone $13 US an hour, and you can move your operation to Nova Scotia and pay them $13 Canadian, that's a 33 per cent saving in your labour cost," Crawford says. He has done studies on call centres for companies in the industry.
Call centres also consider the availability of workers in a region prior to setting up. The Maritimes have some of the highest unemployment rates in the country, so call centres have no trouble finding workers.
And companies have found that Maritimers make good workers. The clincher for Berthiaume was Haligonians' devotion to their jobs. He studied the absentee rate in cities his company investigated, and found Halifax's was the lowest - employees call in sick just 1.6 days per year.
"People here come to work," Berthiaume says.
Halifax also has the distinction of being "accent neutral," another vital quality in a telephone-based operation. "Companies often don't want their customers to know they're talking to a call centre far away," Crawford says. "If someone calls from Boston and the person on the other end has a southern drawl or a Texas twang, it makes the regionalization obvious."
Aside from our curious way of pronouncing words like "out" and "about," Halifax English sounds relatively clean for customers, most of whom are calling from the U.S. eastern seaboard. Another of Halifax's biggest strengths is its educated workforce. Halifax has the most post-secondary institutions per capita in the country; the city has some 40,000 students and 6,000 graduates each year.
But the challenge call centres face is getting these people to work for them. The Greater Halifax Partnership is a local economic growth agency working to bring call centres into Halifax. But Bill Adams, the partnership's communica- tions director, admits call centres have a negative image to overcome.
"Part of it comes from the early days, when they were primarily low-paying sales jobs," he says.
Many people still think of call centres as telemarketing. Halifax has outbound sales centres, like Berthiaume's World Wide Source, but Adams says Halifax has focused more on the higher-end customer service centres.
"We're building an industry, rather than 'McJobs,'" he says. "People might start at the low end, but there's an opportunity to advance their skills and move up the ladder. They can build a career."
Many call centres, such as those supplying customer service for compute software, require skilled and trained employees.
"There are people working in 'call centre jobs' who are engineers making $60,000," Adams says. "I don't think you can lump all call centre jobs together."
Crawford says even the lower-level call centres can be a boon to workers. "For many people, these are their first, entry-level jobs," he says. "After three weeks of training, they're making double what they'd make at a fast food place
For them it's been a fantastic opportunity."
Adams thinks Halifax's call centre industry will continue to grow, "but we're not taking jobs for jobs' sake...we're not looking for the low-paying sales jobs. We've got a wealth of young, talented people here and we're not going to under
sell them."
Ask a first-year university student what kind of job they hope to land after graduation, and it's unlikely call centre employee will come to mind. But that's exactly the kind of attitude Claude Berthiaume wants to change.
Berthiaume is vice-president of operations and development for World Wide Source, one of Halifax's newest outbound call centres. He says he's looking for people who are young and educated. "We're doing business with general managers of companies, business owners," he says. "We're not going to give our customers a free two litre bottle of Pepsi and be like 'Hey, hey, how ya doing?' We aren't that kind of business. So we need people who are articulate."
Berthiaume says his plan to hire educated graduates is made easier with some 40,000 students in Halifax. He says call centres aren't necessarily their worst option.
"Why I think it could attract new graduates is the growth of the industry. If you look at the growth of different industries and you look at the growth of the call centre, it's phenomenal."
There are two different types of call centres: those that make outbound calls (telemarketing), and those that take inbound calls (customer service).
Berthiaume's company has a career development program that acknowledges university graduates are probably looking for more than just tele-
"We have a file on every employee. We know what kind of career they're looking for."
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Missouri Brief Details Methods of World Wide Source, Ameri-source, American Solutions, IT Data Direct and others.
AUTHOR: Robert - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, March 18, 2003POSTED: Tuesday, March 18, 2003
In the brief of the Missouri case pending against Pavlos Angelatos and WWS some interesting 'techniques' for circumventing receptionists and gaining 'approval' are detailed. So when the person calling you from WWS, Ameri-source, IT Data Direct or whoever states that "we had approval," realize that it was skillfully coerced. The Missouri report brief states:
"WWS, through its agents, represent to their prospective customers that the directory
listing being offered is in the prospective customer's local telephone company
Yellow Pages. WWS agents begin their sale to prospective customers with,
(Sir/Ma'am), this is _________your Account Representative from World Wide
Source, calling regarding your listing for the business-to-business Yellow Pages, The
American Business Index... By promoting the directory as the Yellow Pages
consumers are left thinking this is a solicitation for their local Yellow Pages.
14. This representation of WWS' directory as the Yellow Pages is reinforced by
Defendants' telemarketing training materials:
a. Simply refer to our product/service as a National Yellow Page Listing.'
Everyone knows what that entails and you are less likely to be needlessly
b. The simplest way to [get past the receptionist] is to simply say: Who
handles you Yellow Page listings?
15. Defendants' telemarketer training materials encourage efforts to avoid answering
questions about the American Business Index: When asked [what directory this is,
or to describe the product], simply REPEAT the directory's name, and continue
instantly with your Presentation.
16. Defendants, through their agents, also represent to their prospective customers that
WWS offers a renewal of a previous listing, thus contributing to the confusion with
the local Yellow Pages mentioned above.
17. This implication that the customer is being asked to renew its listing is conveyed by
Defendants' telemarketing script, which contains the following series of
representations that state or imply that the business already has a listing which it is
simply being asked to renew or update:
a. that the caller simply need[s] to verify that the business' listing is correct
for the new edition.
b. that the customer will receive a Revision Form for this term, suggesting a
revision of some earlier listing.
c. that with a listing, the customer has been brought up to date for the new
edition, again suggesting a revision of an earlier listing;
d. that this is this year's order, as opposed to last year's order.
18. Defendants, through their agents, use a rebuttal script that reinforces the
representation that the company sells renewals of existing directory listings, and that
avoids responding to questions about renewal, as follows:
a. I just need a minute of your time to update your listing.
b. [T]his is a Courtesy Call to confirm that your listing is accurate for the new
c. Right now we're only updating your listing...
d. [Question:] Did we received [sic] it?/Have I done this before? [Answer:] I'm
in the subscription department...we have you currently listed in our database
and we have you scheduled for the next 2 years. I'm just calling to confirm
that we still have you listed correctly...
19. Defendants' telemarketer training materials further underscore the representation
that customers commonly renew their listings:
a. Renewing Clients should' want the product again...
b. Many clients may very well have not been listed before.
c. If a customer has purchased before...
d. Clients who have bought and paid for previous services.
20. Defendants' telemarketer training materials encourage efforts to avoid answering
questions about the renewal aspect of the listings offered by the company: If a
Client asks if they have paid' for the product before, the Agent must indicate that:
for security reasons we never keep financial details on file...'
21. WWS began marketing its two-year directory listings only in October 2000, therefore
it is unlikely that any customers contacted in 2000, 2001, or early 2002 could have
renewed an existing listing.
22. Defendants, through their agents, further represent to their prospective customers that
the circulation of the American Business Index is over 1 million. This is reflected
in WWS' rebuttal script as follows: [Question:] What is the circulation of this
directory? [Answer:] We publish over 1 million listings per year.
23. WWS is deceptive in its answer by stating how many listings they publish, rather
than how many copies of the book are actually sold.
24. In fact, the circulation of the American Business Index is actually about 35,000.
25. On information and belief, Defendants, through their agents, have billed many of
their customers$399.95 for listings in the American Business Index without obtaining
authorization from them.
26. As of July 12, 2002, the State of Missouri had received 18 complaints directed at
Also please note:
Has anyone considered the need to report these directory scammers for mail fraud. Get the form at your local post office. The billing practices of these companies clearly constitute mail fraud.
Contact your state Attorney General. Vermont shut down Pavlos Angelatos and Ameri-source and Missourri is about to drop the hammer on them.
Mister or Ms. Telemarketer, sitting in their boiler room bunker in Montreal or Dartmouth, is either woefully ignorant of state laws--or hopes you are! Most states have "right to cancel" laws. If you are a telemarketer you are required by law to notify your contact of them in such transactions. Usually it is a 72 hour period or something similar. It goes without saying that the telemarketer would also have to clearly identify themselves and provide clear contact information to create an enforceable transaction.
Your state probably also has laws on the books similar to this Virginia statute:
59.1-200. Prohibited practices.
A. The following fraudulent acts or practices committed by a supplier in connection with a consumer transaction are hereby declared unlawful:
1. Misrepresenting goods or services as those of another; (eg: The "Real Yellow Pages")
2. Misrepresenting the source, sponsorship, approval, or certification of goods or services;
3. Misrepresenting the affiliation, connection or association of the supplier, or of the goods or services, with another;
4. Misrepresenting geographic origin in connection with goods or services;
5. Misrepresenting that goods or services have certain quantities, characteristics, ingredients, uses, or benefits; (saying you distribute over a million books when your circulation is closer to 35000).
With a little knowledge you should be able to help stop this kind of operation in your area. Their only strength is in their telephone operation. They also have no respect for anti-harassment laws. Just keep hanging up on them. You can be nice about it since you possess the moral and legal high ground. They seem to take sadistic enjoyment out of reducing professional people to rage and verbal conflict with them on the telephone. Kill them with kindness.

A business to business directory that has listings of companys that are mostly of little or no value to the consumer.( oh and you need a magnifying glass to read it). The book is full of churches and Mom and Pop shops across america. The company clearly takes advantage of small business that have no need to have or be in a national directory.

I dont consider that bragging. Obviously that person that backed her up in her contest gave her more points than the average person would... Can't she be happy about this? I know if someone that backed me up in my contest gave me that many points i'd do the same thing. All of you people come on here and SLANDER our names and bash on something that is a big part of our lives. This is one of the most legitimate companys to work for. Even with all of the reports on here, you can see the first person posted, and then everyone take it as its a scam. I have the best job in the world. I get to travel the country, talk to cool people all day long and get money to benefit my life. I can't wait for every single one of you that has posted for you to get your magazines so you can feel stupid about the bad things you say about us. Personally my mom hates me because she literally gets about 10 differenct magazines in the mail a day from me.

I've tried all sorts of code, but I can either:
- show a list of subcategories (no posts)
- show all posts, but it repeats the subcategory name above each post, which is confusing.

Man accused of pointing a gun at another person on FridayMarch 19,2013Man to face charges for gun threat
BENNINGTON — A man who was removed from an appointed town office last year after police said he falsified information on his application was accused over the weekend of pointing a gun at a man.
Chris Gagne, 38, of Bennington, is expected to be charged with felony counts of unlawful restraint, aggravated assault with deadly weapon and carrying a deadly weapon, according to a press release from Lt. Lloyd Dean of the Bennington Police.
Dean said that a Bennington resident, who police did not identify, came to the police station on Friday around 2:30 p.m. to make a complaint. The resident said Gagne pointed a gun at him during an argument inside a Union Street apartment.
Officers John Behan and Lawrence Cole took a statement from the resident and a witness who saw the two arguing. Behan obtained a search warrant for the Union Street apartment.
Police approached the apartment and knocked loudly with no answer. The apartment was kept under surveillance until a team of officers could be brought in to execute the search warrant but Gagne was not inside.
Police learned that Gagne was inside a home in Williamstown, Mass.
Officers with the Williamstown Police Department arrested Gagne at 2:30 a.m. at the home on Saturday as a fugitive from Vermont.
Dean said Gagne is expected to be arraigned in Massachusetts as a fugitive, which will begin the process by which he will be extradited back to Vermont to face the felony charges.
Gagne also has pending misdemeanor charges of false pretenses, possession of stolen property, providing false information to police and false advertising.MORE IN This Just InPolice said a Rutland man knocked out another mans teeth.

'Magic in the Moonlight'
Starring: Colin Firth, Emma Stone
Directed by: Woody Allen
Rated: PG-13
This second feature from the "Scrubs" guy show more depth than his first attempt, "Garden State," which is an improvement — but there is room for more. Zach Braff, who wrote this script with his brother Adam, also directs and stars in this as Aidan Bloom, an out-of-work actor married with two children. His wife, Sarah (Kate Hudson), works at a menial city job so Aidan can continue to pursue his dream of acting, but his last job was a dandruff commercial months ago, and the future is not looking good.
This is some monkey business with the apes getting top billing over the humans in this second installment of the "Apes" reboot. But you can't say Andy Serkis doesn't deserve the honor. Call him the king of motion capture for his uncanny ability to create computer-generated creatures through body movement.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

At one month intervals the alumni relations coordinator calls or emails clients and checks in on their progress post treatment. She facilitates this check in for six months post discharge. Clients can also participate in our research follow up program by filling out eating disorder inventories which are emailed to them by our research coordinator.
In an effort to strengthen participation in our alumni weekend, website and follow-up program, Castlewood leadership and Board of Directors have decided that we will no longer provide three-day check-ins for discharged clients. It is our goal to help clients move into their new life and beyond Castlewood. If a client desires further treatment, they may contact the intake department and discuss options for a brief admission to our various programs. To contact intake, please call 888-822-8938.
