To Hell With the Official Verdict: Review, Ratings Update
By Cliff Rold
Adonis Stevenson validated his place as the Light Heavyweight Champion of the World on Saturday night. The division was in a position where the winner could have been a man who just lost; instead, Stevenson one-upped the performances of Gabriel Campillo and Bernard Hopkins against Tavoris Cloud.
He outboxed him and beat him up. No one had really seen Cloud hurt before Saturday; his toughness was a big asset. Stevenson hurt him to the head and body, cut him over both eyes, and forced surrender.
That's a good night in Canada.
It was a bad night in California.
Brian Vera, even after all manner of chicanery about the weight, outhustled and outfought Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. for most of their fight. He won at least six, and probably more like eight rounds. Chavez had spots. Vera had rounds.
The judges scored the spots. They also scored what must have been wish fulfillment to think they saw Chavez win seven (judge Marty Denkin) or eight rounds (judge Gwen Adair) of his own.
It was a joke, the kind boxing fans are stuck with as part of their passion for the sport. The fan base that remains in the US loves boxing despite its inherent silliness. We'll still live it after this.
But there is no reason to love Chavez.
These results, and the rest of the sports, are reflected in this BoxingScene divisional ratings update.
Ratings Changes
Heavyweight: WBC titlist Vitali Klitschko exits the ratings due to inactivity. Dereck Chisora re-enters the top ten.
Light Heavyweight: Stevenson sits in the champion's slot with nowhere to go but down and a whole lot of interesting options among his contenders. Cloud slips in the ratings and is a shove away from exiting.
Middleweight: Chavez, who couldn't even make Super Middleweight, exits the top ten at 160. Vera, who is really a Middleweight, gets credit for what was a win in the ring against a former division titlist and moves up for what should be seen as a career best win streak at the moment.
Jr. Welter/Lightweight: Terrence Crawford, who was originally rated at 140 off his win over Prescott, was pointed out by a reader as wrongly placed given his current state. That is amended here. Crawford enters the top ten at Lightweight and Dierry Jean enters the top ten at 140.

Arizona Wildcats
Cat Tracks: Arizona loses Territorial Cup to ASU
Sure, you could read the box score and know who won, but we all know that won't tell you everything that happened in a football game. So, we give you 'Cat Tracks', providing you with the analysis, quotes and notes from Arizona's November 23 loss to Arizona State. Final score: Arizona State 41, Arizona 34.
The Good:
Ka'Deem Carey rushed for 172 yards and a touchdown for the Wildcats to pass Trung Canidate's single-season school record of 1,602 yards on the ground.
The Wildcats outplayed the Sun Devils in the third quarter, after trailing their rival 14-9 at the half. Wideout Austin Hill caught a 29-yard pass for a score on the quarter's opening drive. Garic Wharton then caught a 40-yard touchdown pass.
John Bonano later kicked a 23-yard field goal after the Devils fumbled on the snap.
The Bad:
Despite Matt Scott's 230 yards passing and three touchdowns, the Cats' quarterback also committed four costly turnovers, including three interceptions.
The turnovers ultimately caught up with Scott and Arizona, as the Wildcats' signal caller fumbled and threw a pick in the fourth quarter.
The Wildcats' defense watched as the Sun Devils put up 24 unanswered points in the fourth quarter, blowing a 27-17 lead and wasting 18 third quarter points.
Kyle Dugandzic's punt was blocked with 5:38 left by ASU's Kevin Ayers, which set up prime field position for the Devils. Cameron Marshall then ran in the go-ahead touchdown.
• The visiting team won the Duel in the Desert for the fourth straight year.
• Carey suffered an apparent upper body injury early in the second half. He returned briefly in the third, but his play was limited for the remainder of the game.
Coming Up Next:
Arizona finished the regular season with a 7-5 record and 4-5 mark in conference. They are bowl eligible and await the announcement of their destination next week.

Arts council hopes locals find an interest in market
Published: Friday, October 26, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 25, 2007 at 11:00 p.m.
Downtown Houma on Friday nights is the place to go for live music, dancing and, now, fine arts and crafts.
The Houma Regional Arts Council recently added an extra dose of the arts to Downtown Life After 5 with an outdoor market to display and sell fine art, handmade jewelry, crafts and home furnishings.
Inspired by the open-air markets of New Orleans and other cultural hot spots, the council debuted Houmas outdoor art market in August, in conjunction with Downtown Live After 5.
Its held the last Friday of each month.
"Whenever you have a group of people ready to be entertained with music, theres always an opportunity to introduce the visual arts, too," said Andrea Dupree-Cenac, community-development coordinator at the arts council.
The next art market will be held from 5 to 10 p.m. Oct. 26, on the Goode Street side of the Courthouse Square.
"This is a different crowd for many of the artists," Dupree-Cenac said. "The artists dont bring high-priced gallery works. They bring affordable art that someone can buy with the cash in their wallet."
The event has begun small, Dupree-Cenac said, with a group of regulars and a variety of artists who participate when theyre able.
Some of the booths have included paintings, photography, wearable art and handmade jewelry and soaps.
This project is all about expanding the cultural diversity of Houma, she said.
The council started the market to assess the interest in the community for art, and, so far, it seems to be working.
"This gives the community the chance to come across an artist they might really connect with. And its a great opportunity for local artists to gain exposure to new customers. Some of the artists have been very successful at the market," Dupree-Cenac said.

Immediately after signing up, I checked my bank statement and found that stamps.com charged my account $17.94. I of course immediately contacted my bank to have the charge removed. And have stamps.com blocked from taking money out of my account.
Contacting them today, was out of the question because they are only open Monday-Friday. Will contact them on Monday and demand the money be put back into my account. Then cancel. Will report back to ripoffreport.com on how that goes.

5 cm, had pitocin to try to help progress, and finally agreed to let the Dr try to break my water. My son was fully descended and in a good position, so we didn't have a reason for why dilation had stopped until the Dr tried the AROM and no water came out. Because the baby was pressing down so hard with no fluid, we decided to c/s. The option of pumping saline in was off the table because of his position and station.
When they performed the c/s, they found almost no fluid in my uterus. Just an 8lb 15 oz baby and lots of maconium, even though he never registered as being in distress. BTW, he was born two days prior to the due date.
After reading so many posts about unnecessary c-sections I was curious to know if there were others on this board who still thought theirs were medically necessary but were just as adamantly seeking VBAC. My providers have encouraged me to VBAC from the beginning, telling me that the scenario that occurred with my first was not likely to recur.
I want a VBAC because 1) I would never elect to have major surgery, 2) we want a large family, and repeat RCS makes that less likely, 3) I have a toddler to chase around, and 4) while my recovery was very good, the surgery itself was awful: the spinal made me convulse and vomit on the table, I was nauseated for hours, and I itched terribly for about 24 hours.

Jim: no problem ken - thanks
Ken: Hello Jim.
Jim: hope you are well - it just "felt" to me like this renewal notice came around a little too soon....but i cannot remember when i last renewed - i wanted to see if you could pull up my last renewal date
Ken: Thank you for patiently waiting.
Ken: May I have the registered name and physical address of your magicJack account please?
Jim: no problem
Jim: sure -
Jim: Jim xxxxxxxxxx
Jim: xxxx Street
Jim: City, State xxxxx
Jim: phone # is xxx-xxx-xxxx
Ken: Thank you for that information.
Ken: Please wait while I check that for you
Jim: sure
Ken: Thank you for waiting.
Ken: I have checked it here and it shows that this phone number has violated our Terms of Service. Please refer to Section 6, Proper Use at www.magicJack.com/TOS .
Jim: what? what in the world could have happened? i haven't intentionally done anything that should have violated my usage
Jim: not that i'm aware of....what rule is it saying i violated?
Ken: Under 6. Proper Use it says "If magicJack sees excessive use, including but not limited to, a customer whose usage is twenty (20) times more than the average magicJack's customer's usage, or a customer who calls more than 50 different telephone numbers per day, or systematic or intentional misuse, it reserves the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate your use of the magicJack device and/or Software immediately, and you will not be entitled to get a refund of any licensing fee or any other fee you may have paid to us. We reserve the right to reclaim any telephone number that does not make a call for a consecutive 90 days. In the event we reclaim a phone number and your software license is still active, you may choose another phone number."
Jim: well i've never called 50 numbers in a day.....i have not engaged in systematic or intentional misuse
Jim: so that only leaves the first option - that i USED MY PHONE TOO MUCH?????
Jim: are you fricking SERIOUS?
Jim: i am supposed to receive unlimited calls to the US and Canada is what my understanding was
Ken: Yes, I am. It's stated in our terms of service.
Ken: Terms of service was provided during registration process and it's your responsibility to read it.
Jim: so tell me specifically what rule i broke - that particular terms of service entry lists several things
Ken: You violated section 6 of our terms of service
Jim: specifically, which listed offense within section 6?
Ken: Proper Use it says "If magicJack sees excessive use, including but not limited to, a customer whose usage is twenty (20) times more than the average magicJack's customer's usage, or a customer who calls more than 50 different telephone numbers per day, or systematic or intentional misuse, it reserves the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate your use of the magicJack device and/or Software immediately.
Jim: do you understand my question? there are THREE things listed there...let me list them:
Ken: Yes, I fully understand your question.
Ken: You violated those three terms listed under section 6.
Jim: 1) over usage 2) calls more than 50 per day 3) systematic / intentional misuse
Jim: which did i violate, #1, 2, or 3
Jim: because i have the feeling you are accusing me of something - and i want you to stop beating around the bush and just SAY what you are accusing me of - because i paid you my hard-earned money for this device...i have been using it for TWO years, and have NEVER had a single problem - but now suddenly all this BS pops up and i want to know whats going on
Ken: All Jim. You over used the device, placed a call more than 20 times than the average magicJack usage and intentional misuse of the device.
Ken: Jim**
Jim: define "intentional misuse"
Ken: You have used the device to make calls a lot of times per day.
Jim: do you have an employee # Ken? If speaking to someone else in the company, how would i reference you specifically?
Ken: You can refer this ticket ID: XXXXXXXXXXXXXX (hidden for privacy) as our chat reference for you not to start over again.
Jim: and how do i get a supervisor on the phone?
Ken: We only have chat support as of the moment.
Jim: you can't be serious...you do not have a customer support phone number?
Ken: We use Tech Chat to better assist you. By using Tech Chat, we can send you instant upgrade links and run several diagnostic tests, that cannot be done over the telephone. We are also able to see where you are located, what OS and Internet browser you are using. Lastly we can see that your Internet connection is working too.This will provide the best Customer care experience and keep you most satisfied.
Jim: ok then i guess i will speak to a Chat Supervisor
Jim: go ahead and put me through to a supervisor please
Ken: I'm one of the Supervisors here.
Ken: You're talking to the right person.
Jim: Well obviously I'm not, because no worthwhile supervisor would make accusations but fail to give me specifics about which rule i violated, and refuse to show me any evidence of what i did wrong
Jim: all you are doing is quoting terms of use quotes, but you're not telling me specifically what i did wrong....i used the phone too much? or i committed systematic intentional misuse...WHICH one...
Ken: You can check your call logs found at the dial pad for your dialed and received calls in a day.
Jim: if i used the phone too much, how many minutes EXACTLY did i use the phone
Jim: i had several calls during which i talked on the phone for approximately 1 1/2 hours...
Jim: are you telling me this is what caused my terms violation?
Ken: Yes Jim.
Jim: i just want to make sure i have all this correct, because this entire chat transcript is going to be posted on RipOffReport.Com, and any other consumer advocacy web site i can find....this is GROSSLY unfair - because you hide these little details in the fine print of your service agreement, yet you "imply" to customers that there are no minute restrictions
Jim: so once again to confirm, you are doing this at your sole discretion - you will not specifically tell me exactly how many minutes i was over, and you wont confirm or deny 100% which of those 3 rules i broke....except to say that it was probably going over my minutes
Ken: MagicJack is only offering free calls within US and Canada but it's not unlimited.
Ken: Free and unlimited are not the same.
Jim: i want to make sure other consumers out there get the full story, 100% truth as it happened, so that they can make their own decisions about your company
Jim: that is why i used the word "imply" - you hid that little #6 item in the customer service agreement
Ken: It was provided during registration process, Jim.
Jim: if you are going to restrict the customer's minutes, that is FINE - MANY businesses do that....but guess what the PROFESSIONAL ones do....they ADVERTISE the # of minutes you get RIGHT UP FRONT and in the clear.....and if you go over those minutes, you have the option to purchase more
Jim: but what you guys do is put up some impossible to track value like "20 times more than average other MJ users", and then you just enforce it as you please....very very very poor customer policy
Jim: so you are also telling me then that I am stuck with a useless Magic Jack that I paid $40 for? can i return it and receive my money back?
Ken: May I know where and when did you purchased the device?
Jim: Im not sure exactly when - but you should be able to discern that by looking at my billing history
Jim: I bought it from Best Buy
Ken: If you purchased your magicJack at a retailer, please adhere to the retailer's policies/terms and return the device to them with your original packaging and receipt.
Jim: Dude you know what's sad? If you would just put in place some sort of policy whereby you allow your customers to SEE that they are IN DANGER, or are GETTING CLOSE, to violating your precious terms of service agreement, you would find that most people, like me, are HONEST people, and would CHANGE their call behavior to come in line with your policies (regardless of how idiotic they might be)....but you don't do that - it's all hidden behind the scenes - what way do I as a customer POSSIBLY have to measure / gauge whether or not i am approaching the limit of using my MJ "20 times more than an average MJ user"....ill tell you - i have NO WAY to do what - because you don't GIVE me a way to do it
Jim: your software has been clunky from day one - everyone i knew told me to go to skype
Jim: its only $3 per month - for a total of $36 per year....not much more than your service costs....and they have MUCH less headaches
Jim: i guess i'm fixing to find out first hand how good skype is - this is extremely disappointing
Jim: http://magicjackreviews.blogspot.com/2008/09/whos-competition-for-magic-jack-vonage.html
Jim: just a little food for thought -
Jim: so to confirm - you gave me NO viable way to measure whether or not i was getting close to violating my usage / minutes, but you are now going to penalize me for "going over" my allowed amount
Jim: you are not going to refund me for my MJ
Jim: and you are not going to turn my account back on
Ken: I fully understand your side, Jim. However, we are providing you everything during registration process since you can read our terms of service before agreeing on it.
Jim: you are, in effect, banning me as a MJ customer for life....
Jim: does that summarize it effectively?
Ken: Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do to reverse the action.
Jim: As I mentioned before, SOLELY in the interest of helping other consumers to become informed as to the "pitfalls" that a company can bury in the terms of service, and how that company can use those details to come back at their customers.....let me ask this question for clarification. I think other potential customers who come across this on RipOffReport.Com would probably want to know (as do I): What would happen if I purchased a new Magic Jack device and tried to sign up for service? Would it not allow me to sign up?
Ken: Please read our terms of service first before purchasing a new device.
Jim: By the way, the popup message I received at home on my computer did NOT say anything about a violation of terms of service. It was prompting me to renew my account for another year, and was providing me purchase options. If my account was in violation of some code, why would it ask me to renew
Ken: Your account here in our end show that you violated our terms of service.
Jim: With all due respect, that is not what I asked. Why was my software asking me to renew my account? Why would it do that if in fact I had violated the TOS agreement
Jim: I have a screen up RIGHT NOW on my computer, where my MJ software is asking me for credit card information, and is telling me that i can renew right now for another year, or for FIVE years if i so choose?
Jim: So who is correct, you or your software?
Ken: One moment please...
Jim: Please explain to me why my MJ software is asking me to renew my account for another year, and why i was able to make it to the registration screen, in which it's asking for my credit card info, if in fact i have violated TOS
Jim: By the way, I hope people are even able to find my posting to RipOffReport.Com.....because it would appear that I'm in good company...there are already 250 complaints about you guys
Jim: http://www.ripoffreport.com/Search/magic-jack.aspx
Ken: Thank you for waiting.
Ken: Please be informed that the reason why the software ask you to renew is because your license was expired since you violated our terms of service. Even if you renew your license your license expiration will be the same.
Jim: Oh I wouldn't have expected anything different from MagicJack Ken - basically MagicJack and I could have had "one last dance" where they charge my credit card and take my money one more time for "old time's sake", but then still drop me with no refund.
Jim: thats funny - no thanks man
Ken: You're welcome
Ken: Thank you for chatting, goodbye.

Jay O'Shea and Tendayi Darikwa were on target either side of half-time for the in-form Spireites before top scorer Tom Pope spearheaded a late Vale revival that ultimately fell flat.
"Credit to Chesterfield because they looked as though they wanted it more than us," he said.
"We didn't create anywhere near enough. We had opportunities to put the ball into the box in the first-half, but we kept having an extra touch and that let us down.
"Our front two were starved of decent service. The pitch cutting up badly didn't help, but it was the same for both sides and Chesterfield looked better than us.
"There were a few boos at the end, but we are having a decent season and we've got a big game at Cheltenham next Saturday when we will try to bounce back.
"When you lose games you can dig a hole and disappear, but we will dust ourselves down, work hard on the training ground and stick our heads above the parapet next weekend.
"Let's not forget that Chesterfield were one of the bookies favourites for promotion and they've got good players. They recently changed their manager and are on a decent run of form."

After I signed the lease they informed me it was an upstairs apartment and that there were no downstairs apartments available and I could not back out of the lease...this being within 15 minutes of signing the lease! I left not knowing what to do. (By the way, there were MANY downstairs apartments that were empty!)
After returning to my home state I contact the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) and tried to get them to help me get a downstairs apartment. They did not do anything to help. Needless to say, my move date was upon me and I had to move. Climbing those stairs hurt me so very much and left me in complete agony.
But the worst was yet to come! Just 3 months after moving in my neighbors were having what sounded like a loud brawl at 2am and I was desperately trying to get some sleep. I tapped the wall gently after listening to the slamming, screaming and pounding for over a half hour. My neighbor decided to answer my tapping by threatening to kill me. I called the police and they arrived within minutes but my neighbors would not answer their door.
The next morning I went down to speak to the apartment manager and to my utter surprise was told there was nothing they could do!! I decided to move out. I was in fear for my and my daughter's life. We had no one to protect us.
I wrote the apartment manager a long letter describing why I was leaving and that I had left the apartment in MUCH better condition than when I rented it (among many other things gum was stuck above a door when I moved in). And that I would like for my lease to be excused and that I would expect a full refund of my deposit.
Their answer? To bug me almost daily with phone calls telling me I owe them thousands of dollars!
This is the worst company to rent from. Your life could be put in danger and they don't care, they don't care about disabilities, and they are the absolute slowest to repair anything wrong in your apartment!!

local dealer order an owners manual for $ 50.00 plus tax. After I got home I opened
the package and there was NO Navigation manual, my car has factory nav also
as with every new car all manuals are stored in a folder. I clearly thought for 50.00
that would include a folder to store the manuals plus the navigation booklet.
I complainted to the Detroit BBB and it was sent on to FORd Customer Service. I recv'd.
a letter from FORD informing I can download for free all manuals. Sorry folks but

A 5-Minute Steak Defrost Hack? (and Other Meat-Thawing Tips)by Amy Reiter in News, July 24th, 2014
It's the end of a long day and you're craving a thick, juicy steak. Fortunately, you have a nice fresh cut in the freezer, awaiting its big moment. Unfortunately it's frozen solid as a rock and dinnertime is in less than an hour. Time to surrender your steak dreams and start making pasta instead? Nope, not so fast.
CTi, a Taiwanese cable channel, suggests an electricity-free steak-defrosting hack that will safely thaw a frozen steak about 1 centimeter thick in less than five minutes. How? Take two metal pots or pans, turn one over bottom up and place your vacuum-sealed steak flat on it. Then fill the other pot or pan with water and place it, topside up, on top of the steak. The weight of the water and its temperature, conducted by the metal, will speed thawing. In five minutes, CTi says, your steak should be defrosted and ready to cook. (You can use the time to pick a recipe.)

Roger hummed in for a landing on the lowest (and thus most difficult) platform. His translucent wings folded against his pressed suit as he entered, flicking his antennae politely at his coworkers and crouching in obeisance whenever a female passed by.
In the break room, Donald spooned honey absently into his coffee.
"What's the matter?" asked Roger.
Donald shook his head. "I've just been thinking, you know? About life. Biology. Thinking about finding a nice woman, finally having some kids."
Roger's antennae quivered in shock. "Don, I know things have been rough lately, but that's no reason to talk suicide!"

MANCHESTER, N.H. -- Year-2000 compliance concerns and a desire to make decision-support data more accessible are the driving forces behind Associated Grocers of New England's plan to install a client-server network in place of its current mainframe computer. The wholesaler here is in the process of narrowing down its list of potential vendors, to be followed by on-site visits to different vendors' customers, according to Arthur Heathcote, director of information systems and customer service ...

"Lyrical . . . It's Raami's mother who will stay in your heart . . . Somehow she retains the will to survive and the strength to help others, fiercely telling her daughter, 'Remember who you are.'" (People, four stars)
"How is it that so much of this bleak novel is full of beauty, even joy? . . . What is remarkable, and honorable, here is the absence of anger, and the capacity—seemingly infinite—for empathy." (New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice))
"The horrors committed by Cambodia's Khmer Rouge, as experienced by one extremely resilient girl. A brutal novel, lyrically told." (O, The Oprah Magazine)
"Unputdownable." (Better Homes and Gardens)
"Lyrical . . . a love story to her homeland and an unflinching account of innocents caught in the crossfire of fanaticism." (Parade)
"A tale of perseverance, hope and the drive toward life." (The Washington Post)
"Humanity . . . shines through in her storytelling." (The Wall Street Journal)
"For all the atrocities witnessed and hardships experienced, Ratner's story is filled to an even larger extent with opportunism and beauty. Ratner's gift is her exquisite descriptions of the careful details of daily life . . . Ratner describes her desire to memorialize the loved ones she lost with an enduring work of art. She has done just that; hers is a beautiful tale with considerable poetry and restraint. In the Shadow of the Banyan is an important novel, written by a survivor with unexpected grace and eloquence." (Audrey Magazine)
"The powerful story of how even the most brutal regime lacked the power of a father's love for his daughter." (The Daily Beast)
"Gorgeous . . . Ratner bears witness to the unyielding human spirit." (Washingtonian)
"One of those brave novels of resilience and the power of love that surface once or twice in a generation, like Khaled Hosseini's The Kite Runner." (Buffalo News)
"Although Ratner provides a glimpse into what was going on in the country, this is Raami's story. Her personality and experience gives the novel its power. . . . Although she doesn't shy away from violence, loss and grief, she pays equal attention to small moments of compassion and natural beauty." (Columbus Dispatch)
"Exquisite." (Providence Journal)
"Vaddey Ratner's debut novel bears witness to the atrocities of Cambodia's Khmer Rouge and is not an easy read, but it captures the beauty and resilience of the human spirit." (Yahoo! Shine)
"Ratner's engrossing presentation of this tragedy is a remarkable achievement. This is one of those novels that lead writers like me to believe that real truth is best found in fiction." (Washington Independent Review of Books)
"This stunning memorial expresses not just the terrors of the Khmer Rouge but also the beauty of what was lost. A hauntingly powerful novel imbued with the richness of old Cambodian lore, the devastation of monumental loss, and the spirit of survival." (Publishers Weekly (starred review))
"Often lyrical, sometimes a bit ponderous: a painful, personal record of Cambodia's holocaust." (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))
"An emotionally moving story . . . This tale of physical and emotional adversity grips readers without delving into the graphic nature of the violence that occurred at the time . . . Ratner's contemplative treatment of her protagonist and the love shared among the family stands in stark contrast to the severe reality they faced each day to survive. Knowing that the story was culled from Ratner's experiences as a child brings a sense of immediacy to this heartrending novel likely to be appreciated by many readers." (Library Journal)
"Her heartrending, mournful tale depicts the horrors of thekilling fields and the senselessness of the violence there while still managing to capture small, beautiful moments…By countering the stark and abject realityof her experience with lyrical descriptions of the natural beauty of Cambodia and its people, Ratner has crafted an elegiac tribute to the Cambodia she knewand loved." (Booklist)
"Vividly told . . . a message of hope and [a] reminder of the depth of human spirit. Stories like this reach deep inside us and are, dare I say, life-changing?" (Bookreporter.com)
"Filled with gut-wrenching atrocities, this surprising story will transport you to a tragic time in history and show you how survival can depend on faith in family and memories that give you wings." (Bookpage)
"Evocative, lyrical. . . . Accessible and profoundly moving, In the Shadow of the Banyan is destined to become a classic." (School Library Journal)
"Ratner's touching and beautifully written In the Shadow of the Banyan celebrates the human spirit, the power of story and imagination and the triumph of good over evil." (ShelfAwareness.com)
"In the Shadow of the Banyan is one of the most extraordinary and beautiful acts of storytelling I have ever encountered. . . . This book pulls off the unsettling feat of being—at the same time—utterly heartbreaking and impossibly beautiful. There are some moments in this story that are among the most powerful in literature. This is a masterpiece that takes us to the highs and lows of what human beings can do in this life, and it leaves us, correspondingly, both humbled and ennobled." (Chris Cleave, author of Little Bee)
"Vaddey Ratner's novel is ravishing in its ability to humanize and personalize the Cambodian genocide of the 1970's. She makes us look unflinchingly at the evil that humankind is capable of, but she gives us a child to hold our hand—an achingly believable child—so that we won't be overwhelmed. As we have passed from one century of horrors and been plunged into a new century giving us more of the same, In the Shadow of the Banyan is a truly important literary event." (Robert Olen Butler, author of A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain)
"'Words . . . turn a world filled with injustice and hurt into a place that is beautiful and lyrical,' says Vaddey Ratner's father in her stunning debut novel, and this is exactly what she has accomplished. Ratner has managed to conflate a child's magical and indomitable hope with the horrific experience of the Khmer Rouge genocide to create a work that at once both deeply wounds and profoundly uplifts. With lyrical and breathtaking prose, Ratner plunges us into the midst of the nightmare that was thrust upon her, and yet, even amidst the darkness of starvation and violence, she never abandons us to despair. She always offers us the glimmering thread of hope and of love. She offers us wings. In a book rich with Buddhist teachings, the mythology of Cambodia, and the natural beauty of her world, Ratner weaves a moving tribute not only to her father and family but to victims of all genocides—past, present, and future." (Naomi Benaron, author of Running the Rift)
"An astonishing book, unlike anything else that has emerged from Cambodia and its tragedies. In contrast to other books dealing with the Khmer Rouge period, this is not a memoir—it is literature, and literature of a high order." (Philip Short, author of Pol Pot)
"A compelling new voice in world literature. Through the coming of age story of a sensitive girl, Ratner dramatizes both the brutalities of the Khmer Rouge and the emotional cost of survival." (Bharati Mukherjee, author of Miss New India)

Island of the Blue Dolphins
by Scott O'Dell
Island of the Blue Dolphins Foreignness and 'the Other' Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #7
I came to the mound where my ancestors had sometimes camped in the summer. I thought of them and of the happy times spent in my house on the headland, of my canoe lying unfinished beside the trail. I thought of many things, but stronger was the wish to be where people lived, to hear their voices and their laughter. (28.19)
Karana's loneliness gets the best of her. She wants to leave the island to be with people again. What's her view of the "other" here? Does she choose their culture over her own?
Quote #8
I shook my head and smiled at him. He spoke again, slowly this time, and though his words sounded the same as before and meant nothing to me, they now seemed sweet. They were the sound of a human voice. There is no sound like this in all the world. (29.12)
Here, we see that Karana values human connection and companionship, regardless of the culture.
Quote #9
There were many gestures before we left, though the two men spoke among themselves. They like my necklace, the cape, and the cormorant skirt that shone in the sun. But when we got to the beach, where their camp was, the first thing the men who spoke the most did was to tell the other men to make me a dress. (29.15)
Why do the men insist on making Karana a dress? How do you think they view her?

My host doesn't allow access to the main /tmp folder from scripts. It seems the Google API code is trying to store files there. Can this be changed to only use the plugin subdirectory?
I get 4 of these errors on the settings page:
"Warning: file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect."
The file it is trying to reference is within the "/tmp" directory. The error originates on lines 37 and 96 of the Google_FileCache.php file, but the errors display right above the site list on the settings page.
Like I alluded to initially, since I can't change what my host allows I would like to have the temp info stored within the plugin directory. Of course, I'm open to any options that I might have to correct the issue on my side.

Have you noticed anything different on PCGamer.com? Last week we added a new commenting system, Disqus, by popular demand. Now it's easier than ever to log in and mull over the latest happenings in PC gaming with fellow readers. We're looking forward to some entertaining discussion and being able to jump in and interact with you directly ourselves.
We'd like our comment threads to be civil and welcoming to all. As such, we have a few rules to keep in mind when commenting.
1. Don't be racist, sexist or homophobic.
2. Don't post OR link to anything pornographic, disgusting, gory (unless it's in-game), or illegal (including illegal file sharing).
3. Don't spam: no excessive posting, repeated self-promotion, or paid referral links.
People who break these rules will have their comments deleted and may be banned permanently. We also have some general guidelines. We will ban people if they break these repeatedly.
- Don't be intentionally rude. We've met a lot of PC Gamer readers, and they're all lovely in real life. It's easy to sound like more of a dick than you are in a comments thread—take it easy, be nice, and you'll find that everyone's generally pretty cool.
- "Meh" is not a valid sentiment. If you don't care, don't reply.
- If you disagree with someone, say why. If you agree with someone, say why. If you like or dislike something, say why. If you can't be bothered to say why, that's fine, just move on.
- Throwing around accusations of corruption constitutes a meritless personal attack on our writers and won't be regarded kindly. PC Gamer has been producing independent and critical reviews for twenty years, and nothing is going to change that. Our reviews policy can be found here.
All of the rules can be neatly encapsulated in our golden rule: don't be a dick.
Happy commenting! And look out for our writers appearing to say hi and join the discussion every now and then. If you'd like to meet up and play with PC Gamer readers, you can join our fantastic communities in World of Warcraft , The Old Republic , Guild Wars 2 , Wildstar , Minecraft and Planetside 2 .
Update: We have begun using a small team of volunteer moderators to help look after the comments. Welcome, moderators! They will be tasked with deleting spam and comments that are in clear breach of the rules outlined above. More borderline cases, or threads which seem inherently problematic, will be referred to the editorial team to deal with.
We aim to expand the moderation team slowly but steadily, and will pick new ones based on a complex equation that will factor in regularity of posting, sensibleness of comments, and generally seeming like a good egg. If you think that's you, or know someone you'd like to recommend, drop us a mail.

About A Crucial Catch
The NFL, its clubs, players, the NFL Players Association, and the American Cancer Society are committed to saving lives from breast cancer and addressing the unequal burden of cancer in underserved communities.
Our campaign, "A Crucial Catch," in partnership with the American Cancer Society, is focused on the importance of regular breast cancer screenings. Throughout October, NFL games will feature players, coaches, and referees wearing pink game apparel, as well as additional on-field and in-stadium branding -- all to help raise awareness for this important campaign. Much of the apparel worn at games by players and coaches, along with special game balls and pink coins, will be auctioned off at NFL Auction, with proceeds benefiting the American Cancer Society's Community Health Advocates implementing Nationwide Grants for Empowerment and Equity (CHANGE) program.
For the past four years, CHANGE grants have been awarded to build community and health system capacity to implement strategies proven to increase access to cancer screenings. CHANGE grant recipients across the nation have reached underserved women through more than 200,000 outreach and education engagements. In addition, grant recipients have provided over 100,000 breast cancer screenings at low or no cost. This life-changing work continues in 2016 with the goal to provide breast cancer education and screening resources to even more women.
A Crucial Catch Day
On October 25, grant-funded community health system partners are teaming up with the American Cancer Society and the NFL to launch its third nationwide breast cancer event -- A Crucial Catch Day -- to provide breast cancer education and free or low-cost screenings within underserved communities.
About Grant Recipient Communities and Their Events
The following grant-funded communities will provide outreach, education, and breast cancer screenings on Tuesday, October 25: Asbury Park, New Jersey; Atlanta, Georgia; Aurora, Illinois; Baltimore, Maryland; Casa Grande, Arizona; Cincinnati, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; Dallas, Texas; Dunkirk, New York; Englewood, Colorado; Fremont, California; Houston, Texas; Huntington, Massachusetts; Indianapolis, Indiana; Jacksonville, Florida; Miami, Florida; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Nashville, Tennessee; New Orleans, Louisiana; Olathe, Kansas; Orlando, Florida; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Ossining, New York; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Renton, Washington; San Diego, California; San Francisco, California; St. Louis, Missouri; St. Paul, Minnesota; Spartanburg; South Carolina; Taylor, Michigan; and Washington, District of Columbia.
In 2015, youth and high school teams around the country supported A Crucial Catch. Click here to see a list of the top fundraisers.
Overview of the NFL's Fundraising Efforts for the American Cancer Society
Since 2009, the first year of the NFL's "A Crucial Catch" campaign, the NFL's work has raised more than $13 million for the American Cancer Society, with the majority of the contribution coming from the sale of Breast Cancer Awareness-identified pink merchandise at retail and via the NFL Auction website. The NFL does not profit from the sale or auction of breast cancer awareness-identified ("Pink") merchandise. Beginning with the 2011 "A Crucial Catch" Campaign, money raised via the campaign supports the American Cancer Society's Community Health Advocates implementing Nationwide Grants for Empowerment and Equity (CHANGE) program. This program promotes health equity and addresses cancer screening disparities through community based cancer prevention and early detection programs that increase access to breast cancer screenings. The program officially launched in 2012 within 17 communities across the country (each within 100 miles of an NFL city) where data showed that the population had lower breast cancer screening rates and higher mortality rates relative to other communities. In 2016, communities near each of the 32 teams will receive CHANGE grant funding.
Additional Details:
1. NFL Auction: 100% of proceeds from Pink products auctioned on NFL Auction go directly to the American Cancer Society (ACS)
2. At Retail: 100% of the NFL's proceeds from Pink product sales go to the American Cancer Society.
Background on Retail/Licensed Product:
- All NFL Pink product is produced by official NFL licensees. As NFL licensees, such companies pay a royalty (% of wholesale sales) to the NFL when selling officially licensed products to retailers worldwide. The NFL receives payment of that wholesale royalty once licensees sell their respective NFL licensed products to distributors and retailers (i.e., the royalty is not based on retailers' consumer-facing prices in-store or online).
- The NFL does not retain any profits generated by royalties received due to the sale of Pink products. All dollars are donated to ACS.

England Message Board
A deserved win?
Did England deserve to win against Paraguay? Was Sven right to brig on Hargreaves? How did the refereeing affect the game?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
yes england did deserve to win, what everbodt is forgetting playing football in 32 degree heat losing 6-10lbs in weight, will take a toll on anyone, we held on to the lead and showed how our defence could handle an on slaught. 2-0 against t&T will do us, yes we have made the mistake in the past of gambling a 1-0 lead and defending but lets al get behind the team and show them all how much support they have and not whinge about what should have been at the end of the day we have 3 points which is more than sweden and paraguay and t&t so come england lets get it right. good luck
Lets face it, England have already won the world cup. At least the TV panels seem to think so and then you wonder why Scottish people don't support England. In reply to one of the other messages, "change the record", why don't England change the record and never mention 1966 ever again.
A Yahoo! User Jun 12, 2006 19:32 Flag
The only reason that England won was because Paraguay scored for them. They will need to drastically improve if they are to win the world cup. Referees are only human and a lot of pressure is put on them by FIFA.
A Yahoo! User Jun 12, 2006 18:57 Flag
Personally what in the hell was Sven doing???.You dont try to shut up shop at half time!!!.You go to kill the game by grabbing a second goal.Knowing how England has a footballing nation has no luck whatsoever in cup conditions i would have kept it as it was and we Would have got more goals.We where made to sweat sweat in the english heat back home on more than one occasion and we dont need that.We are quality and dont need to revert to desperate defending,we are an attacking team.Sort it out Sven!!!ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK is needed against Trinidad.Come on you boyyyyysssssssssss.
well , england did play well in the heat etc ..but i think they should off left the players and formation as it was..
what do you think?
I'm not English but passionate to support her. What's Crouch,Hargreaves,Downing doing in this otherwise promising side? Demola
A Yahoo! User Jun 12, 2006 18:22 Flag
Sven is utterly clueless - he took off Owen, who needs games to get his fitness back, and left on Gerrard, who has been playing since July, and had shot his bolt in the first half. Joe Cole and Peter Crouch have never played up front with each other before (despite endless tinkering and multiple substitutions we end up experimenting in the WC itself). We now have only one fit striker, and he is a support striker not a goal-scorer, and he is on a yellow! "It is not logical." I am beginning to long for the clear thinking of Graham Taylor.

After all that pre-world cup press hype the performance was appalling. Come on! get out of this blame / grumbling /excuse - making culture.Winning teams are made of sterner stuff not whingers!
If your English or course they deceived to win. . If your Paraguayan then of course they didn't. As for Sev'n substitutions. Even the most basic of coaches will tell you don't replace a striker with a midfielder. Only Sev'n knows what the hell he was doing. But give him his due he got us there when most people said we wouldn't ,and as one of the favorites.
Crouch #$%$ #$%$ #$%$ and most of time #$%$ .
Owen #$%$ jst #$%$ beacuse he did nothing .
Downing who the hell is he .
Defoe oh yeh he did not play why the hell not > ??????
Beckham quite good
Gerrard and Lampard Good solid game
Cole not really a solid performance but better when he moved into the center at times .
Ashley cole not a convincing performance .
Hargreaves a Fu}}king tart
Sven has made a few errors in picking his team . We have some top class strikers in the Prem who consistantly score week after week . We only have to look at how many goals Crouch and Owen has scored this season to see that it was a mistake taking them .
If we play like that againt Sweden we have had it .

Insect snacks
Students pose with their teacher Henk van Gurp (4th R) behind a selection of insect snacks at the Rijn IJssel school for chefs in Wageningen January 12, 2011. All you need to do to save the rainforest, improve your diet, better your health, cut global carbon emissions and slash your food budget is eat bugs. Chef Henk van Gurp, who created recipes for mealworm quiche and chocolate pralines with buffalo worms, sees no reason to disguise the ingredients, and sprinkles mealworms on top of the quiche filling and onto the chocolate buffalo worms as protein.

ABC News reported on this latest accusation by Sudan, an Islamist state sponsor of terrorism and long term ally of the Islamic Republic of Iran, "Israeli 'Spy' Captured in Sudan".

Driver avoids serious injury after run-in with mooseJune 16,2013Staff Writer
KILLINGTON — A Middlesex motorist avoided serious injury following a collision with a moose Saturday night.
According to State Police, shortly after 9 p.m., Maurice A. Hebert, 65, was driving east on Route 4 in a 2012 Jeep Wrangler when a moose emerged from the woods and struck the passenger's side of Hebert's vehicle.
Hebert sustained minor scrapes, as did his passenger, Rosemary Hebert, 63, of Middlesex. A 15-year-old juvenile passenger was not injured. The vehicle sustained damage to the front, rear and passenger side and was towed from the scene.
The moose's condition was not available.MORE IN This Just InHARTFORD, Conn. Full StoryWHITE RIVER JUNCTION A Springfield man will spend 17 months in jail and the next decade on... Full StoryEvery year thousands of school children are transported in school buses. Full Story

I tried and tried to use the different features on the website, but was unsuccessful to benefit from the service I thought was available. Everytime I went to a different feature on the website, I was going to be charged another fee for its services provided. I could get those services without being a member and joining the RecordsLogin.com membership.
I was highly frustrated whenever I went from one information site to another and was going to be charged additional money for its services. I then looked for an address, phone number, toll-free number to call thwe company and discuss the problems I was having.
I found out that the Support Team was the only way I could get a message relayed to the company. Also, it posted that the answers to any e-mails would be answered between 24 - 48 hours. I did e-mail them my concerns and told them I wanted a refund on my credit card. I have e-mailed them 2 times to request a refund and Bob and Andy have never responded to my request.
I am very, very dissatisfied with the service I received from this company and want a refund immediately.

Health & Safety
Two drivers and a foreman who were fired by a Michigan paving contractor after raising safety concerns will receive nearly $1 million in back wages and damages under a federal settlement.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has ruled that Asphalt Specialists Inc., of Pontiac, wrongfully terminated the three employees and must reinstate them.
The contractor was found in violation of the Surface Transportation Assistance Act for firing the three, who had been ordered to violate U.S. Department of Transportation mandated hours of service for commercial truck drivers.
One employee refused to sign a false affidavit rebutting allegations made by a former foreman who was fired, according to OSHA.
In addition to reinstating the employees to their former positions with all pay and benefits, the company was ordered to pay a total of $953,916 in damages: $243,916 in back wages to the drivers; $110,000 in compensatory damages; and $600,000 in punitive damages.
The Detroit-area contractor provides a wide range of asphalt paving, milling, grading, repair, construction and reconstruction services.
27-Hour Shifts
"It is illegal for an employer to retaliate against employees who report work-related safety concerns or violations of federal transportation regulations, which require drivers to have a minimum 10-hour rest period between shifts," said Dr. David Michaels, Assistant Secretary of Labor for OSHA Dr. David Michaels.
"OSHA is committed to protecting workers from retaliation for exercising basic worker rights."
According to OSHA, the foreman was fired June 30, 2012, after repeatedly raising concerns to the company's co-owner about job assignments that repeatedly failed to allow for the federally mandated 10-hour rest period.
"At least twice, the foreman and the crew were expected to work more than 27 hours straight," OSHA said.
The foreman "rightfully refused to operate a vehicle in an unsafe manner, which could potentially cause serious injury to the worker, co-workers or the public," the agency said.
Back Pay and Damages
The foreman will receive his back wages as well as $50,000 in compensatory damages and $200,000 in punitive damages.
The foreman and crew were expected to work more than 27 hours straight, OSHA said.
A second driver was fired April 26, 2013, also after raising concerns about the number of hours he was required to work. The drivers also refused to sign an affidavit denying that he had been required to work an illegal number of hours—an affidavit the company was trying to use to rebut the fired foreman's claims, OSHA said.
A third driver was fired July 8, 2013, after raising concerns about vehicle maintenance and the number of hours they were expected to drive.
Under the settlement, each driver will receive his back wages as well as $30,000 in compensatory damages and $200,000 in punitive damages.
Any of the parties in this case may file an appeal with the department's Office of Administrative Law Judges.
OSHA does not publicly identify whistleblowers.
OSHA's Whistleblower Protection Program enforces the whistleblower provisions of the STAA and 21 other statutes, protecting employees who report violations of public transportation agency, maritime, nuclear, pipeline, worker safety, and other laws.

The Notes will be offered only to "accredited investors" as set forth in Section 2(15) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rules 215 and 501(A) of Regulation D promulgated under the Act. Further, the Notes will be offered through a Private Placement Memorandum. in accordance with Rule 506, and this is not a solicitation for the sale and purchase of the Notes. The primary purpose of the Unsecured Subordinated Note Offering is to raise funds for investment primarily in mortgage loans; however, if proposal number (3) described in the Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 11, 2011 passes, funds will also be used to invest in, acquire, manage and sell real property or acquire entities involved in the ownership or management of real property.

Molly Meldrum makes first TV appearance since suffering head injury
- From: Herald Sun
- June 14, 2012
WEARING his trademark hat and leather jacket and cuddling his dog Ziggy, Ian "Molly" Meldrum has appeared on the Seven Network's Sunrise program, talking live on air from his Melbourne home.
Looking chipper but still a little hesitant in his speech, the Australian music guru told the show today that he has experienced a remarkable change since suffering head injuries in a fall at his Richmond home in December that nearly killed him.
"I think something strange has happened because somehow the doctors either performed a miracle, or it's because I haven't had a drink for six months, but I've lost all the umms and errs and that's a real worry at the moment," Mr Meldrum said, laughing.
"If I lose the hat, that's my whole act gone out the window."
Mr Meldrum is beating the drum for a new cause - to increase awareness of head injuries suffered by footballers who take severe knocks on the field.
He wants to ensure they all know they have to be tested to ensure there is no danger of permanent brain damage.
"We know in footy and any other sport (people say) 'No, I'll be right, mate. I don't want to look like a sissy.' Well, it's not a matter of that. It's a matter of going through this procedure."
Mr Meldrum said he will soon head to the United States to begin interviewing music celebrities for Seven.
"I'm looking forward to work, I really am," he said.
Have your say
