Thursday, August 27, 2015M. Erik Matlock 08/27/15 09:30 AM,Many years ago, we hosted a three day worship arts conference. Not like the conferences I was paid to do, traveling around the country with large budgets and excessive amounts of gear. This one confined me to my home church, with no budget and no warehouse full of touring grade audio toys. It would prove to be a challenge to my maniacal, control-freak nature which served promoters and bands so well during my career. Basically, this conference was about various… View this story

Monday, August 17, 2015M. Erik Matlock 08/17/15 07:22 AM,During the late nineties, Russia was going through some pretty dramatic changes. One of the big ones was opening up to allow churches to come in. Many Americans were arriving to serve as missionaries while that door was open, including a family that we knew. Within a year, they were part of a rapidly growing church that met in a large (rented) theater space in Moscow. Someone donated money and equipment for a portable system, and they managed to put… View this story

In the mid-1980s, his music was heard on every station with a music format of top 40, adult contemporary, and even smooth jazz. From his rock songs to his ballads, his music was everywhere. Today, I'm apt to switch stations when I hear one. But what if he released remixes of his music? I'm listening. The Bryan Adams curse doesn't often happen with artists.… View this story

Simply, excessive sound pressure levels (SPL) on stage can often lead to excessive levels from the house system. This leads to two suggestions. Monitor levels should be set after house levels, and monitor levels should be sufficiently low in order to not interfere with the house system. Let's proceed with the assumption that the goal of… View this story

As a long time Final Fantasy fan I had many a mixed feeling coming into FFXIII. Reading about the lack of RPG fundamentals I wasn't sure if I should be excited for the next gen FF or angry. I ended up pretty indifferent. After putting a good ten hours or so into the game I remain about the same.
One of the things I HATED about FFX and X-2 was the linearity of the game. It was pretty neat to hear full voice acting in an RPG for the first time but after my awe wore off I couldn't stand it. Actually it caused me to quit the game during the bonus dungeon because I had enough of it! (Thank you YouTube for letting me watch the endings) That was the first major turn off for me for FFXIII. I guess I'm just an old RPG fan. I am liking the excellent voice acting, although Vanille's constant 'chipper' attitude with foreshadowing is getting old, and the story seems like it can be top notch (given the player takes the time to ready all the history given to you throughout the game).
For some reason I can't find myself loving it though like I have so many other FF games. My first romp was through FF7. This promptly made me go play all the previous games bringing FF4 and FF6 to a couple of my favorite games of all time; along with FFT, FFIX, and FFXII. Yes I was one of the few that loved FFXII. The under developed characters actually drew me in and made me use my imagination, GOD FORBID, on how they would act and be and their feelings with the past scenarios that were just hinted at throughout the game. Minus Vaan of course...he's a girly bitch. This one just isn't doing it for me.
I think it's the fact that you don't have very much control over your party. My battles thus far have consisted of hit auto-attack, watch fancy animations, hit auto-attack, change paradigms to heal/weaken enemies, watch fancy animations...watch fancy animations...watch fancy animation...do you get the picture? This game is EASY compared to any of the past FF games. I've died twice because the Libra spell which is pretty much useless in all other FF is required to be used to get your summons, which I blew through the tutorials and didn't even bother trying to see how to fill up the Gesthalt Meters.
Reading some of the interviews here on 1up with the creators I get the sense their excuse of wanting to make a game that focused on the story of the characters is just a lame excuse for saying they couldn't bring the fans what they really wanted. Of all the things that I miss the most so far I have to say it's the "victory fanfare" music when you win a battle. This has been a staple since FF, that's right the ORIGINAL final fantasy up through FFXII (I haven't played FFXI so I can't say for certain there) have all had their rendition of the fanfare song. Not FFXIII. Nope, they decided to make a Non-RPG RPG...what the hell does that even mean...that doesn't even give a friendly nod to life long fans. I'm hoping that at least the chocobo theme will be thrown in there eventually :/
So I'm left a lackluster feeling so far. Yes I will play it through to the end. But so far the game play is feeling very shallow to me. AND THE SUMMONS. Oh god the summons are horrid! I wasn't aware transformers and squenix were such buddies. But that's a different subject all together. Let me know your thoughts so far on the game, and here's hoping my senile RPG mind can learn to love this new generation of "RPGs"

Joan Guzman Won't Make Weight For Mosquera Bout
By Jake Donovan
The 140 lb. title was just not meant to be claimed by Joan Guzman.
The weigh-in for Friday's Telemundo-televised main event between former champs Guzman and Vicente Mosquera – set to take place shortly at the Civic Center in Kissimmee, FL, from where Friday's fight will air live – will result in the vacant interim title only being at stake for one fighter. That fighter will not be Guzman.
"We were on track to hit weight, but just hit a wall," admits a disappointed Guzman. "I know what fans are going to say, but I want to assure everyone that I trained my (butt) off for this fight."
Monetary amounts were not discussed, though Guzman will have to forfeit a percentage of his purse. Mosquera's camp was allegedly informed of the weight dilemma earlier in the week, and have accepted terms to proceed with the fight.
The belt will still be at stake for Mosquera only, should he choose to accept the fight.
Win, lose or draw, Guzman plans to campaign in the 147 lb. division following Friday's fight. A win will secure the Dominican boxer a ranking within the Top 15 of one of the sanctioning bodies (presumably the WBA, whose vacant 140 lb. title is on the line for Friday's fight).
The scene is an all-too familiar tale in Guzman's career, having missed weight far too many times for many fans to offer forgiveness. A rebirth was hoped upon signing with Florida-based promotional company Acquinity Sports. The dedication has been evident, but he has hit a couple of potholes along the way.
A brief winning streak under his new promoter came to a halt last November, suffering an injury-shortened split decision loss to Khabib Allakhverdiev in their 140 lb. title fight. An interim version of that belt is at stake for this fight, with the hope that a win by Guzman would pave the way for a shot at redemption.
He will instead now set his sights on anyone at welterweight willing to take their chances.
"It's not an ideal situation, but I know it didn't come from a lack of trying," insists Nunez. "We found out about it a couple of days ago, when his body just wouldn't respond. We're grateful for Mosquera and his team understanding the situation, and look forward to Friday's fight and campaigning at welterweight. He's definitely done with 140, it's welterweight probably for the rest of his career."

Hello all,
I'm running WP version 3.5.1 and have several static pages. I'm using a custom menu (created with custom menu widget) to navigate the pages.
It works fine on a desktop, but trying to make it more mobile friendly ... when testing all kinds of mobile plugins like
- MobilePress
- WordPress Mobile Pack
- WPtouch
and others .... They render the page fine on my android phone but the problem is there is no navigation. The menu just disappears and there's no way to navigate the site on a mobile device (at least not the one I'm testing it with - Android/Nexus S)
I've also tried another plugin called "responsive select menu" but this seems to have no effect at all.
I'm not sure what to do about it, any help from more experienced mobile developers would be really appreciated.
Thank you

First Stage's 'Best Christmas Pageant Ever' scores hit
Scrooge may hog the theatrical limelight during the holiday season, but he's hardly the only one with a story of improbable redemption. Just ask the six troublemaking Herdman kids, who are doing some attention-grabbing of their own in First Stage Children's Theater's eighth production of "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever."
Early in the Barbara Robinson novel that inspired this play, the narrating Beth Bradley tells us that she and her classmates figured the Herdman clan — poor, dirty and rough — "were headed straight for hell." Sure enough, director Jeff Schaetzke opens the show by bringing the Herdmans onstage from below, surrounded by a swirl of smoke. »Read Full Article(2)

Thinking of painting my Jeep
Hi everyone,
I am a new jeep owner. Just bought a 1998 Wrangler Saharra Automatic, full doors, dark green with tan soft top.
I am thinking of painting the Jeep from the Dark Green to Desert Gold Pearl. Does anyone think I could get a decent paint job for $3,000. ???
3k is about right.. but finding a shop to do it will be the hard part, or at least it was for me when I wanted to paint our jeep a different color.
buy a gun and paint it yourself :D
Where are you located at PT-Jeepdriver?
Unless you have a lot of body work to take care of, $3000 should be enough to paint it whatever color you want at a good paint shop... At least is was the last time I looked into it (5 years ago in Michigan).
The price depends on what color you want it painted and body work, dents tears etc. Also if your wanting to repaint it a whole diffrent color depends on what color the jeep is now and what all you want painted like door jams underhood all that stuff. Black and white are the cheapest colors you can buy but red is the most expensive, red takes the most to make it. My fanily owns a Paint and Body business thats how i know all of this. If you have anymore questions ill do my best to help you. also a pretty mcu all around GOOD paint job should start about 2000 and than go up from there.
hey i live in high point, nc i have a friend who paints he's good at basic painting and custom works. give him a call at 336-847-2687

He bounced a check to a book company and they insist they have the right number no matter what I tell them. This phone number has been in my name for numerous years and you would think that they would check these things before harassing a person as they have done.
I have lived here for forty-three years, have never bounced a check and do not order books. They insist that I am lying and they are right.
I have talked to three supposed managers that informed me that it takes months to remove a telephone number from their computer system once it is entered into it. I have informed them that they had better quit calling or I will take legal action because this is definitely communications harassment.

Your students can scarcely exist without human contact (or their 21st century texting version of it) for 24 hours, let alone 28 years. Therefore, we want you to really delve into the physical and psychological levels of being stranded and separated from all you know and love. This tale allows you to do this quite easily. Continually bring your discussions and analysis back to personal connections, loneliness, need for material goods, etc. Lesson Two will provide an excellent platform and jumping off point for these deeper discussions as we assess what is meaningful in our lives. Lesson Three will delve further into the lessons Crusoe learned while by himself, without his material possessions.
Extend your discussions even further by trying to imagine leaving society for nearly three decades. What would have changed? Could your students adapt?

Both drivers were given a reprimand for their actions after the race - with Webber punished for going onto the track, while Alonso was dealt with for causing a dangerous situation.
For Webber the reprimand proved costly as, because it was his third of the season, it means he will have a 10-place grid penalty for the Korean Grand Prix.
Horner thinks that it was harsh of the stewards to hand down such a penalty and that a fine would have been better considering the consequences of the reprimand.
"It should have been dealt with by a fine or a slap on the wrist," said Horner.
"Some of the most iconic images I can remember are of Nigel Mansell giving Ayrton Senna a lift home [at the 1991 British Grand Prix - pictured below].
"What is a shame is that it has ended up with a reprimand, which ultimately because it is the third reprimand has ended up with a 10-place penalty.
"Unfortunately the reprimands are now the only thing available to the stewards. Perhaps, in this instance, a talking to the drivers would have sufficed. Ideally a fine would have been better, but I don't believe that is something available to the stewards now.
"It is a shame and frustrating because that puts Mark now on the back foot now in Korea. It is what it is and we certainly can't change it."
Horner thinks that Webber has had the misfortune to fall foul of the totting-up process under circumstances that were not the original intention of the rule.
"The problem is that as soon as you start applying common sense that is where you get into trouble," he added.
"In fairness I haven't seen the footage but I saw the image of him giving Mark a lift back, and at the end of the day it was good for the show, good TV, and if drivers can't show any emotion it is a shame.
"We have seen things go through before. Fernando picked up a flag in Valencia after he won [in 2012], and there was no penalty for that despite it being a breach of the rules.
"Common sense prevailed on that day. But I understand the difficulty the stewards have with the tools they have at their disposal."

Hedda Gabler
by Henrik Ibsen
Hedda Gabler Theme of Dreams, Hopes, and Plans
If Hedda Gabler teaches one lesson, it is that dreams cannot be relied upon. In this play, all plans for the future are predicated upon falsities, lies, misunderstandings, or miscommunication. Whether it be marriage, friendship, babies, professional pursuits, or economic risk, no thing is a sure thing. The characters continually act based on these false certainties with regard to the future, and they are repeatedly punished for doing so.
Questions About Dreams, Hopes, and Plans
- What "plans" do we see made in Hedda Gabler, and how do they go awry? Are any plans successfully executed throughout the course of the play?
- George remarks that there is a danger in getting caught up in dreams; would Hedda agree? What about her constant retreat to an idealized, romantic world? (Check out more on this aesthetic ideal business in Hedda's "Character Analysis.")
- At what point has Hedda decided with certainty to commit suicide? When she takes the gun from the writing table? Before that? After?
Chew on This
Try on an opinion or two, start a debate, or play the devil's advocate.
Dreams are never fulfilled in Hedda Gabler because every character makes his plans dependent on someone else.

Two Issues:

- How do you add lines of space in the Banner Text area? I tried HTML, etc. and nothing works. For example, the writer name ("By John Doe") should be followed by a line of space and then the text.

If you feel that it is your God given duty in enlighten the "general public" then there are plenty of other open forums that you can use and I am pretty sure you would not receive the abuse on those that you do on here.If you continue to post pasted articles that are not related to Spurs on this board you will continue to receive abuse. Put these two things together and the only conclusion that any logical person will come to is that you in fact either get off on being ridiculed or you are an imbocile.The fact that you have written those words in your last post leans very heavily towards you being some self deluded demi-God that believes in his own omnipotence.

5-7 cm of new snow approx so far today (an from last night) in Espace Killy at 2000 m. Some nice snow in areas protected from the E / SE winds, but the bad vis makes it a challenge.
Feels more like an avalanche rating of 2 than a the 3 that is posted.., but that may change with the light snow and wind forecast tonight and tomorrow (Eastrly Foehn winds picked up at mid-day and seem to be picking up more as I write this post)
The best summary of the day is again in photos by Wayne. With limited options and partly cloudy skies, he's still your best bet on finding good snow - a few short walks with touring gear, and he's turned it into a great day in the Espace Killy.
See for yourself - it's an art!

I actually think that was my best drive yet. Even though I only finished 7th.
By lap 5 I had been lapped twice by everyone, due to my racing line not being there I crashed off twice at the hairpin and lost my front wing.
From then on, it was just a matter of keeping the car on the track for the rest of the race as due to the times I could tell Crazy Biggaz was making mistakes a plenty.
I was posting consistent 1:46 times, which for me, without a racing line and on primes the whole race, was probably a good time. I was catching at what I'd think was 4-5 seconds per lap.
With about 15 laps left(I think) rain started to fall, but only gently. It started just as Daenius entered the pits and he switched to Intermediate tyres on the way down but this was eventually his downfall as the rain was very light, and didn't effect anyone until the last 2-3 laps.
By the end I had gotten my 2 laps back, and was only half the start/finish straight behind biggaz, however Brad, having lapped people went over the line before I got there and caused the race to end when we all got to the finish line.
Had the race gone on 1 lap longer, everything would've been different. Noddee had a puncture and had passed the pit lane, but struggled over the finish line. With the track wet at that point and with Pined and Daenius on Intermediates, they would surely have overtaken him. I would probably have overtaken Biggaz too. But it wasn't to be
Was a good race though, very tense in the last 2 laps or so!

Is there anything legally I can do to make sure my money is secure?
Social Security Lawyers
You don't know for sure unless you1) research the title; or 2) deal with someone local. Within the last 30 days the Times-News ran a story about this activity in our community. Houses that were listed for sale were offered for rent by scammers who charged the typical upfront rent and fees and disappeared. "Renters" learned of the scam when they tried to move in. On the other hand, there are legitimate reasons why a person from elsewhere would have the authority to rent a house, as in an estate situation, for instance. Helpful questions to the out of state party would be "who is the owner, and what is your relationship to the owner." Information about the public record of ownership can be obtained through the Twin Falls County Office of the Assessor, and is searchable by street address.
You are correct to be very careful.
Best wishes for a favorable outcome, and please remember to designate a best answer.
This answer is offered as a public service for general information only and may not be relied upon as legal advice.

★ The Psionic Citadel ★ (Psychic Pokemon fan club)

★ Which one is the better mono-psychic? Alakazam from gen1, Gardevoir from gen3 or Reuniclus from gen5?
I have to go with Alakazam on this one. He's got crazy Speed at 120, along with 135 Special attack. He's not one you should be ignoring when coming across the metagame. Reuniclus would be 2nd, great Special Attack matching Gardevoir, but much, much more Bulkier. But really, it only depends on how you use these three Pokemon to determine which is the best, they are all good in their own ways.
★ Which event exclusive Psychic pixie is the best? Mew, Celebi, Jirachi or Victini?
Mew by far. He can learn basically anything! Victini's V-Create is the only thing that keeps him good, other than that, I'd say Victini is just tied with Jirachi, since his fire type attacks can own Jirachi & Celebi. Celebi can be good as a Baton Passer, Jirachi can be a good decent wall.
★ Which of the 9 Psychic types in OU (Alakazam, Celebi, Espeon, Jirachi, Metagross, Latias, Latios, Reuniclus, Starmie) are overrated and should be in a lower tier?
If I must choose one of any of those 9 listed, I'd put Alakazam down to a lower tier. Celebi/Jirachi reason for the previous question stated. Espeon's Magic Bounce makes her queen. Metagross is just pure epic, and is mightly powerful. Starmie is just like Gengar, one of the most used Pokemon since Generation 1! Reuniclus has great Special Attack and is very Bulky. Latios is mighty strong and a bit bulky himself, as his sister, Latias, is very, very bulky!
I feel like writing a book here lol so Alakazam would be the one chosen. He would be overshadowed by Latios or Starmie basically.
★ Which Psychic types currently in a tier lower than OU should be in OU?
I'd say Wobbuffet should always be in the OU, more or less UBER.
★ *How would you use your Psychic Pokemon to pull pranks on someone?
They can wield Psychic powers, so therefore, I would have them make the phone randomly ring, WITHOUT using a phone! xD Or make a hallucination and have like, someone that you are a huge fan of knock on your door and you see them, and stuff. Fun, fun!
★ *What's your opinion on physically attacking Psychic types like Gallade? Do they add much needed variety or do they appear unsuitable (as they do not rely on their mental abilities)?
As part of the Ralts family, it would be more suitable to keep its Psychic type. Everytime I go against Psychic, I usually have that urge to get that Dark type ready, because of its resistance to Psychic. Not for Gallade. I use Flying types due to its added Fighting type on Gallade. xD
As being half Fighting type, Gallade adds much need variety*

10179 UCS Falcon Review
Posted 27 September 2007 - 08:28 AM
Hello everyone!
By now many excited LEGO Star Wars fans have started receiving their UCS Falcon. Some of us here enjoy writing reviews and sharing our thoughts. I mentioned to Yoda that I was planning on doing a review of this set but it would likely take me a few weeks (of 1-2 hours per night) to finish building the set. Yoda suggested that I do the review as I go so everyone could see the progress of the set. What a great idea!
So, here is the first entry. Feel free to comment along the way. I will try to post photos and updates every night on the build then wrap up the review when I complete the set. If you have any specific questions or photo requests, please be sure to ask.
UCS Millennium Falcon Reviewed by Dunamis
Set 10179
5195 Pieces
$499.95 from LEGO Shop at home
The Box:
Obviously, this is a box like no other. First of all, it comes in its own shipping carton. Inside of that, there is a standard LEGO carton. Finally, inside the LEGO carton, we have the actual Millennium Falcon box and a nice little letter thanking you for buying the biggest LEGO set ever.
Shipping box (Naboo set provided for scale)
LEGO Carton and letter
LEGO Carton
The Millennium Falcon box is really quite nice. There are lots of photos and it does a good job of �selling� the set. There are 8 individual pieces of tape that keep the lid on the box. The limited first edition comes with a seal on the lower left corner.
Millennium Falcon Box (Naboo set provided for scale)
Lifting the lid straight up reveals one compartment of several bags on the right. On the left, we find a thin, square box (like a pizza box) that contains the official certificate of authenticity, two sticker sheets and one enormous manual! Under the pizza box, we find two more compartments each filled with several typical LEGO bags. The box weighs 24 pounds!

Not quite sure what the little 30th anniversary sticker is for yet. The Certificate of Authenticity is on heavy paper and is suitable for framing.
More to come tomorrow. It's late here.

I'll be monitoring your progress and feedback.
The box so huge! Impressive!

Interesting question regarding the size of the box vs. the ISD. Here ya go:
Also, I'll be posting more on the size of the manual a little later. I'm going to be building for the next few hours... *sweet*
Posted 28 September 2007 - 07:34 AM
OK the box is big !! I pictured it a tad smaller though !!
I know what I don't like, its the fact that it has the regular Lego Star Wars logo on top with Vader. UCS sets should have a different iconography like they did in the past. Sure its a trivial detail but it adds to the fact of owning something special !! After all its the most expensive set ever as of now ;-)
Happy building !! And we'll wait patiently for some cool pics later on :-P
Posted 28 September 2007 - 08:08 AM
The gigantic manual measures 17� x 12� and is almost an inch thick. It is spiral bound with a cardboard like front and back and it is 314 pages. Interesting decision not to break it up into multiple manuals. It is almost unwieldy at this size and thickness. Unfortunately, the manual is not available electronically from the LEGO website. Hopefully, it will be soon.
Missing were the little instructions at the beginning telling you to not build this beast on shag carpet and to sort out the 5,000+ pieces before you get started. I guess they figure if you got $500 to spend on this thing, you can build it however you want.
As usual, we get the regular LEGO manual features:
- Piece call outs for each step
- Parts inventory at the end of the manual
- Page numbers
- Photos of all the other 2007 sets at the end of the manual
Manual (paperback book provided for scale)
Various manual photos (8x8 plate provided for scale)
I'm about 2 hours into building and sorting. I'm trying to stay a day ahead in my posting. The build has been easier than I thought so far. Despite the massive number of pieces, it has not been too hard to sort and find what you need. Build photos will start appearing in tomorrow's entry.

Waiting for your kind photo ...
Posted 28 September 2007 - 09:14 AM
Just how many technic pins does this monster need??? 8-� Judging by that one pic theres gotta be a lot in this set.

This is the top of the bill for any lego-collector (also financially speaking..) and I like the look of all those thousands of pieces.
The manual is incredible, I thought I had a really thick manual coming with set 8479, but this one exceeds it with ease...

I don't have the UCS ISD but from the pic i can see that it is about the same thickness, slightly shorter but much wider than the MF. So this leads me to believe that dimension-wise the UCS MF is more compact.
Also, notice how in the content, the parts fit in just nice without additional spare space for anything else. Strange isn't it that when TLC is responsible for the shipping, we see optimum usage of box spaces. X-D imagine if all boxes were this efficient. $4.99 sets would be no bigger than a match box! X-D X-D the MTT would be reduced to 1/4 its current size! X-D X-D X-D

Posted 29 September 2007 - 06:14 AM
As for the number of pins - from the Peeron inventory for the set, there are over 400 technic pins of various lengths!
(insert the "my fingers hurt from building" emoticon)
Keep the pictures coming!

The build is going quicker than I thought. I am sorting as I open the bags that I need. Some bags are in multiples so it is easy to pick them out. The build is a tad repetitive as the framework of the ship is somewhat symmetrical. Here are some progress shots:
Note that two plates (1x4 and 1x8) are stacked in between Technic beams. Then the part below is assembled to hold the structure together.
This took about an hour of sorting and building:
I'll post another update tomorrow.
Posted 30 September 2007 - 08:43 AM
As you can see, the minifigs are really nice. They even throw in an extra fleshie head! No doubt these will fetch quite a bit on the Bricklink and Ebay markets. I�m keeping mine.
Continuing the Build
This photo shows how well this model is put together. Notice that they use four of the three-hole beams per side to hold this together. I remember reading that you can hang this model from the ceiling. I don�t doubt it.
These right angle Technic pieces are used to reinforce the structure of the model.
You can see them used here:
I was shocked at how many light gray plates are in this set. I have TWO tubs full of these:
The infrastructure is now complete:
I got hung up for about an hour looking for one of these:
Turns out, LEGO gave me an extra left wedge and shorted me a right wedge. So frustrating! I had to stead one off my 6211 Star Destroyer. It is not a very common piece by the way�
Posted 30 September 2007 - 09:42 AM
Posted 30 September 2007 - 11:57 AM
That beast looks really sturdy !! That is great !!
Are these yellow parts new ? I am not a Technic fan and never saw these before.
Another question for you: is the instruction book easy to follow, especially regarding the colours. Does the black rally stands out comparing to the dark bley and so on ? I sure hope so ;-)
Can't wait to see moer hehe

#1 UPDATE EX-employee responds
Rebuttal to: "What is the definition..."
AUTHOR: Chicago, Il - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Monday, May 11, 2009POSTED: Monday, May 11, 2009
Also, of COURSE the clients (At&t, Quill, etc.) love this business model and so does Cydcor. They can turn and burn employees without paying them anything from pocket. The reps do not get paid until they produce money for the client.
For example, when I worked for GLM, Inc. we were told we produced an average of $1,000/new customer for At&t, but only got a commission around $80 with no residuals.
If you, the author of "What is the Definition...," is part of one of the straight commission-based outsourced sales companies, ie. Cycdor, etc. you do not invest anything into your employees. So thank you for the drawn out poetic response, but let's face the facts.
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?
#2 Consumer Suggestion
What Are Defamation, Libel and Slander?
AUTHOR: Michael - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Monday, February 18, 2008POSTED: Monday, February 18, 2008
Typically, the elements of a cause of action for defamation include:
1. A false and defamatory statement concerning another;
2. The unprivileged publication of the statement to a third party (that is, somebody other than the person defamed by the statement);
3. If the defamatory matter is of public concern, fault amounting at least to negligence on the part of the publisher; and
4. Damage to the plaintiff.
In the context of defamation law, a statement is "published" when it is made to the third party. That term does not mean that the statement has to be in print.
Damages are typically to the reputation of the plaintiff, but depending upon the laws of the jurisdiction it may be enough to establish mental anguish.
Most jurisdictions also recognize "per se" defamation, where the allegations are presumed to cause damage to the plaintiff. Typically, the following may constitute defamation per se Attacks on a person's professional character or standing.
This is a message to all people that are willing to put their name out on the line to bad mouth a company. Considering that most of the people that put their "name" on these complaints are actually being deceitful and lying about their own identity since they don't use their actual name.
All of the companies listed in this blog are independent from each other. DS-Maxx is NOT affiliated with any of them. The research found on these companies is as accurate as most information you get on the internet. There is a reason why your college professors did not allow your references to come from there. :)
This is an opinion site ONLY! Be careful of spreading the wrong information. Most of the people reporting any complaints never even worked for the company or did for a short period of time.
These companies have an extensive interview process in order to avoid hiring someone that is not a fit. Also, they are growing companies, that have never had layoffs. This means that if someone submits a resume, they will actually contact you as soon as they can. The assumption is that if a candidate submits a resume, they are looking for a job to make money. The quicker they can get in for an interview, the quicker they can make money. Somehow, in todays negative world, this is considered desperate or unprofessional.
The words "Sales and Marketing" are on every job posting. "Advertising Agency" never appears anywhere on any posting. The truth is that most people don't even read the body of the posting, they just send their resume to 100 companies and hope for a hit.
The bottom line is that people want to complain. They want to find a reason not to take a risk because if they fail, they will have no one to blame. The world is a scary place but don't make it scarier by convincing yourself that everyone is out to get you.
Last note: The clients that are represented by these companies would not put their name and reputation out on the line if they were not legitimate.
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?

Well, its funny, but I couldn't find a solution for this problem.
I use several plugins, which alteres the content in some way, i.e. wpDefine, SH-Autolink, IMGPop and so on.
So heres the problem: Some of the plugins do not work with others. i.e. the imgpop plugin do not work together with d13gallery. d13gallery produces thumbs out of a given directoy full of images in a post when there is a d13gallery tag in it. IMGpop works in the other way and produces JavaScript/DOM popups for ever a href with picture tags in it.
wpDefine for example produces alt text and special css code around given keywords, SH-Autolink replaces several keywords with a given link. Well, both together with the same keyword, won't work.
Anyone got a solution for this add_filter problem or is it a general WP pluginproblem that has no workaround/fix?

What Does Non-Refundable Mean?
AUTHOR: Karl - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, April 19, 2009POSTED: Sunday, April 19, 2009
I wonder why you didn't use Southwest which DOESN'T charge cancellation fees. The entire price of the non-refundable ticket is yours to apply to the next trip if completed within a year of the time you purchased your first ticket. If you like cancellation and change fees travel on all the major airlines EXCEPT Southwest. If you purchase a non-refundable ticket from anybody including Southwest you do NOT get your money back. It is essentially in an escrow account for your use under the original routing number. On Southwest, however, it is not reduced by a $100 change or cancellation fee. This is what Jet Blue meant when they told you that your money was in an "account". If you purchased a fully refundable ticket, though, you should have gotten a refund. Fully refundable tickets cost more than non-refundable ones.
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?

UA men ready for lights, action
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette/JASON IVESTER --07/30/12-- Head coach Mike Anderson speaks to members of the media before men's basketball practice inside Bud Walton Arena in Fayetteville on Monday, July 30, 2012.
FAYETTEVILLE The Arkansas men's basketball players have been playing against each other for weeks, going back to summer workouts, practices before touring Italy and more practices as regular-season games grow closer.

"We finally can put the40 minutes of hell against somebody else."
The Razorbacks will give fans a glimpse of what their full roster looks like in tonight's exhibition opener against Southwest Baptist, an NCAA Division II team from Bolivar, Mo. Tipoff is 7 p.m. at Walton Arena.
"When we put this team all together, I think you're going to see some nice pieces," Arkansas Coach Mike Anderson said. "Depthwise, I think we're going to be a lot better than we were last year."
Tonight's game will help Anderson determine the playing rotation. He said he expects to go with a core group of eight to nine players getting most of the minutes this season, but there also will be times when the Razorbacks may need to use more.
"I'm looking for the guys that can bring it when we turn the lights on and put officials out there, when you're playing somebody other than yourself," Anderson said. "You want to see how they perform, and how they perform as a group, what they bring to the table.
"Especially when they come off that bench, which guys give us the energy that we're going to need? The hustle? And the guys starting out, can they set the pace? Who are those guys going to be?
"We want to be a much better team defensively than we were last year. Which guys will pick up on the defensive schemes that we're talking about? Who's going to be the guy that's going to go get us 10 boards a game? Do we have a guy like that? I want to see those things."
The sophomore class of guards BJ Young (28 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists) and Ky Madden (8 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists) and forward Hunter Mickelson (20 points, 10 rebounds, 7 blocked shots) stood out in the Red-White game.
Scott and fellow juniors Marshawn Powell, Mardracus Wade and Coty Clarke, a transfer from Lawson State (Ala.) Community College, also figure to be in the rotation, which leaves freshmen Anthlon Bell, Michael Qualls, Dee Wagner and Jacorey Williams competing for playing time. Junior guard Fred Gulley, a transfer from Oklahoma State, will be eligible to play in early December after the first semester ends.
While Bell hit 5 of 8 three-pointers in the Red-White game and scored 19 points, Qualls, Wagner and Williams shot a combined 1 of 20 from the field.
"You saw the classic case of lights, cameras and action for some of these guys," Anderson said. "It's one thing to do it in practice, but then when you start getting officials and fans, you can see some of their eyes were a little glassy. I thought they were a little tight.
"It's a process. All those guys have to go through it in terms of playing at this level."
