by jason clark he told me my application i sent in for master card has been accepted i do have derogitory credit though (wich is true) so we have waved and eliminated all hidden charges for you so there is no apr, service or financial charges, monthly or yearly fees
i would have to make a one time payment of ten percent of my cards credit limit that is used as a finacial check to ensure that if i did use up the limit i would be able to make the first payment on my card
it also eliminated the hidden charges we would do a draft on my account of ten percent of the limit it had to be done within a week otherwise the financial check would not clear (i would would make late payments on my master card) i liked it this gave me a chance to build my credit i gave him the info required some he already knew like my banks routing number and telephone number i would also recive a secured card so if i did miss a payment it automaticaly did a balance transfer on to my mastercardrestoring the limit my phone then died
half an hour later i was called by joe carson of premium advantage i told him how i was just called by them and that my phone died he transfered me to a verification system and never heard of my card or my 300 dollars again

MTV's Hottest MC list this year stirred controversey as always, but with a strong debut album that critics are already calling a classic, Kendrick Lamar gets the well-deserved #1 spot. The Compton-bred rapper appeared on MTV rocking the "Peace Love-n-Harmony" snapback from Rocksmith's Fall 2013 collection. The cap references Bone Thugs-n-Harmony's famous logo and features the brand's signature "explicit content" design under the brim. Keep an eye on the Rocksmith website for the drop.

...about gaming, gold farming and all things feral
User Interface
Beautiful custom textures, stunning animated statusbars, smooth fading and subtle saturation control. Who said you couldn't combine cubic minimalism and the more graphic Warcraft style? The fourth edition of Lars "Goldpaw" Norberg's custom user interface for World of Warcraft does this, and more!
Goldpaw's UI consists of multiple modules, each handling a separate part of the World of Warcraft user interface. They are written to automatically interact with each other, but also to interact with and look good with the default UI, and with other addons. You can use the entire UI, or just the parts you like. With the 4th edition of Goldpaw's UI, the choice is yours!
Are my keybinds and macros the most optimal you can get? Probably not. But they are way ahead of the average player.
My philosophy is that my hand shouldn't have to move. And when I press a key, the resulting action should be intuitive and situation-based. And more than anything, it must be intelligent. Over the years I've adapted a set of keybinds and macros that at least for me achieves this goal.
I see a lot of players claiming to be 'casuals'. Yet they do massive amounts of daily quests, dungeons, raids and spend several hours each day on the game. And that doesn't sound very casual to me.
Gold is a resource you always need. For repairs, bags, gems and enchants, battle pets, mounts, and tons of other things. Yet all those 'casual' players out there are barely getting by. They either spend massive amounts of time farming, or succumb to the lure of the more advanced gold guides which though they give a lot of gold per hour in-game, they also require a large amount of time spend out-of-game doing research. And I aim to change all this, to show the average user that gold can easily be obtained with very little work, and very little stress.
Follow my journey as I move from rags to riches, and see how I keep gaining without any real knowledge of any market, any profession, anything at all!
I've been playing World of Warcraft since its launch over 10 years ago. And even though my main focus these days are on addons and gold, I do from time to time play the actual game.
On my blog you can find all my tutorials and guides, as well as numerous random thoughts about this and other games.
Support My Work
If you wish to buy me a beer, or show support for my work, whether that be my awesome UI for WoW, my goldfarming or macro posts, or something entirely different, then sending me a donation is the best way to do it. I spend a lot of time on my various projects, and I never put any restrictions on any of them. They're all free, which also means I'm working for free.

Gamma Irradiation of Magnetoresistive Sensors for Planetary Exploration
AbstractA limited number of Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) magnetic sensors of the HMC series by Honeywell, with and without integrated front-end electronics, were irradiated with gamma rays up to a total irradiation dose of 200 krad (Si), following the ESCC Basic Specification No. 22900. Due to the magnetic cleanliness required for these tests a special set-up was designed and successfully employed. Several parameters of the sensors were monitored during testing and the results are reported in this paper. The authors conclude that AMR sensors without front-end electronics seem to be robust against radiation doses of up to 200 krad (Si) with a dose rate of 5 krad (Si)/hour and up to a resolution of tens of nT, but sensors with an integrated front-end seem to be more vulnerable to radiation.

Chocolate with sea salt – brilliant!
I have a feeling no one will be too mad at me. I just love simple recipe ideas, and tweaking them just a bit can make things fresh and exciting, even when using similar ingredients.

Debian Announces 2 Year Release Cycle
At this weeks Debconf in Spain the Debian Project announced a development freeze in December of every odd year with future releases scheduled for the first half of each even year.
The 2 year period will begin in 2009, despite the release of Debian 5.0 Lenny on Feb.14. This exception will enable the project to slip smoothly into the two year rhythm. Consequently, Debian 6.0 will freeze this December and become available in the first half year of 2010.
The new release plan was announced by Meike Reichle, a Debian developer working at the informatics institute of the University of Hildesheim in Germany, on the Debian mailing list. She also writes that companies and organizations who find the 2010 squeeze since Lenny 2009 too quick, the project will enable a skip from version 5.0 to Debian 7.0 upon its release.

News12 / Sunday, Nov. 17, 2013
MARTINEZ, Ga (WRDW) -- "It's really great. I earned it. I worked at this for a long time. It was a large part of my life everyday, working towards earning merit badges," said 13 year old Carter Harwell.
Harwell is now part of a club many Scouts aim towards. Earning all 134 merit badges the Boy Scouts group has to offer.
"Just over 200 in the entire history of Boy Scouting have earned all the merit badges. Most of them being back in the early days of Boy Scouting when there were only 50 or some odd merit badges," he told News 12.
While many support Harwell with his accomplishments, not everyone thinks it's right.
"There's people who don't approve of it. They don't believe it's right to do that," he told News 12.
Earning all the badges isn't a requirement to reach the top of the Scouts ranking, but it sure speeds things up. That's why some say it's not Harwell's time.
"When they become Eagle Scouts, if they are 13 or 14 even, they say they are not mature enough. They don't believe they've earned the rank and that's kind of the issue I've had along this journey," he said..
"I believe he's plenty mature enough to get the recognition," Lee Harwell, Carter's dad, said.
Lee Hartwell said not everyone goes at the same pace.
"We wouldn't want to hold someone back-- I don't believe in doing that. Some people mature faster than others and Carter has done that," he told News 12.
Carter said it's okay for some not to approve of what he's doing, just like it's ok for him to pursue a goal.
"It doesn't bother me a bit. That just tells me they don't know me," Carter said.
Carter said there's no way he would've earned all the badges if it wasn't for the support of his family especially his mother, and those Scout Masters that have encouraged him to continue on in the hopes of becoming an Eagle Scout.

#1 Consumer Comment
AUTHOR: Very Angry - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, February 14, 2012POSTED: Tuesday, February 14, 2012
Harvard does not offer a job. It offers you an opportunity to become an Independent Agent affiliated with Harvard and be in business for yourself.
There is NO COST to become a Harvard Agent, get Trained and Certified to sell their products. Legal Shield requires Agent membership in order to sell their product and receive a commission for each membership sold.
Want to become your own boss and represent Carvel or McDonald's or Krispy Creme, etc? Get ready to fork over hundreds of thousands of dollars or more for a franchise.
Sales is not for everybody. Working as an Independent Agent is not for everybody. Commission only income earned is not for everybody. Being in business for yourself is not for everybody.
Some people like being hired drones, handed a weekly or bi-weekly check by an employer and being told what to do, when to do it, how to do it, etc by overbearing bosses.
The complainers who have posted here should not discourage those who have sales ability, want to sell a legitimate product and be in business for themselves.
If the opportunity isn't for you, acknowledge that fact and move on with your life.
Don't ruin the opportunity for others.
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 UPDATE Employee
Harvard Risk Management
AUTHOR: Harvardguy - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, January 24, 2012POSTED: Tuesday, January 24, 2012
As a new associate with Harvard Risk Management who went through the vetting process I can tell you this is a straight up operation. I was also interviewed by Mr. Kandell and found he answered all of my questions and even offered answers I did not think of but was happy to hear.
His explanation of the training was very simple and concise. It is all done on their website through video streams, period. He explained that phone interviews are done due to the high volume of responses they have been getting from those looking for a new career but that there would be local associates I could connect with.
The author of the complaint mentioned the Identity Theft Specialist was not visible on the company website. Since he does not have "Agent Access" he would not be able to see it anyway. He also mentioned Mr. Kandell giving out the names of trainers. After hooking up with other Harvard agents, and after reading this complaint article, no one was ever given a 'trainer" name over the phone.
I have zero complaints about Harvard in fact I have been doing very well for a beginner with no real sales experience and found the training to be exceptional. I have appreciated the support this company offers as I learn the ropes.
You can believe who you want to but I would not put much stock in the rantings of someone who has a bone to pick with life itself. I did my diligence before joining this company and I was very satisfied. Before writing anything on a web site, try to get your facts right.
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?

I had Choice Hotels Credit card issued by Bank of America. I've been charged $14.99 from TLG Shopper and TLG Evguest at least 1 or 2 times each month since June 2010. I don't have any idea what is this company until I called their numbers on my bank statement.
I told them I've never done any business to your company. The funniest thing I heard from their rep is " I applied 3 accounts". OH,MY! how greedy they are.
The nice Rep ( I have his name) said his company will refund money back to my credit card. Well, 2 weeks passed. Everybody can put a bid now and see will I get refund or not?!
I will keep reporting and check back with me. This is my first time Rip-Off. I try not to be mad and crazy. Hope it's last time and no one will suffer again from TLG shopper / Shopper Advantage.

I am sorry that the manager at your local Radio Shack was not able to advise you on your options with your headphones.
However, I have some advice that may make you feel better. You purchased the extended warranty, and you have your receipt information. Since it seems you do no wish to visit that Radio Shack again, may I advise you to go the next closest location to file the claim. If you do not want to do that, please visit. www.rsserviceplan.com
There you can file your warranty claim from home, and once you have sent the item off (you will receive a free FedEx label) you will receive an e-gift card to your email in 3-5 business days.
As for your experience in trying to return the headphones, Radio Shack has a 30 day return policy. When an extended warranty is purchased, but the product fails within the initial 30 days... it can be exchanged in store. EXCEPT when there is physical damage to the product. The reason, it seems, that the store manager did not do the return, was because of the cut cable. However, he should have advised you to wait out the 30 days and then file your warranty claim.
Hope this helps.

Cotto: No Preference in Facing Chavez or Margarito
By Ryan Burton
BoxingScene.com caught up with WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto shortly after Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. captured the WBC middleweight belt via majority decision over Sebastian Zbik.
"I thought Chavez did a good job. Congratulations to him for winning the title," said Cotto.
Cotto is looking to face either Chavez Jr. or Antonio Margarito or in his next fight. The Puerto Rican star said that he didn't have a preference as to which fighter would be his next opponent.
Cotto told BoxingScene, " I am not leaning either way. My team and I will talk to Bob Arum and we will do whatever makes the most financial sense."
I tried to pry a little further by asking if a fight with Chavez would be more tempting because it would give him the opportunity to win a world title in a fourth weight class, a feat that hasn't been achieved by a fighter from Puerto Rico.
The Boricua, still not tipping his hand said, "Of course I would like to do that (win a 4th title) but we won't make a decision just based on that. We will sit down and discuss all of our options and then do what makes the most sense."
Cotto fought last in March when he scored a 12th round knockout over former champion Ricardo Mayorga at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Chicago-based mover recommendations
I'm doing a long-distance move from Chicago to California and I'm getting a lot of quotes. Most of the quotes are in the $3,000 range but their business practices, price models and Yelp reviews are less than re-assuring. One company's quote was in the $15,000 range but this company had a much more re-assuring model and pretty good reviews. I'd like more recommendations from companies like this one. [more inside]

What's so upsetting is that they obtained my physical home address via backdooring the computer system. I work in a sentive career field, and don't necessarily want everyone knowing where I live, and at the time had an unlisted number.
There were also extra dialers uploaded on my system (all porno-related), and they were self-perpetuating about every 7-10 days. I kept taking them off and they'd show back up. Of course I didn't know what was going on until I had fought with 3 different phone companies, Alyon, disconnected my phone service (for allowing the back door to my home address-which they said is legal as a "nuiance call" tracer by Alyon), and paid a computer specialist to troubleshoot my console. The specialist said that the extra dialers also allow a virus venue for infecting my system, which ate Norton utilities in about 15 seconds. I wound up having to have to whole system wiped and lost all my information/data.

MILAN — Michele Norsa barely paused between leaving his old job at Valentino Fashion Group SpA and taking on his new duties at Salvatore Ferragamo Italia SpA.
"On Sept. 30 at 7 p.m. I was in the Valentino offices. The next morning, which was a Sunday, I took the train down to Florence," Norsa told WWD in his first round of interviews since taking Ferragamo's reins. "Working in a new company stimulates you."
Norsa said it's too soon to outline a comprehensive strategy for the company, which turns 80 next year. But the executive, clad in a wide pinstriped suit and a raspberry-hued tie, did divulge some of his initial impressions and priorities for Ferragamo. These include expanding into new markets; rolling out more focused, eye-catching advertising campaigns, and introducing more accountability into the corporate culture.
Ferragamo is planning to go public at some undefined point in the future, part of a broader solution to resolve a complex succession issue for the 40-plus member family. When pressed for a time frame, Norsa said he couldn't rule out the possibility of an initial public offering as early as next year, but he stressed that it's up to the shareholders to decide and there is no urgency since the company doesn't need funds. In the meantime, he wants to run the company as if it already were listed on the stock market.
"Public companies have a different way of working," said Norsa who, before Valentino, worked at several other public companies, namely Valentino FG, Marzotto and Benetton. "The stock market requires a discipline in terms of numbers, time frames and communications. It's a good school [of management]….I hope to bring this culture into Ferragamo."
On just that note, he gave an update on the business so far. Norsa said Ferragamo's sales through September are up "slightly more" than 10 percent and are expected to keep that pace through the end of the year. He declined to give a profit forecast. He is in the process of planning the company's budget for next year.
Last year, Ferragamo's sales rose 12 percent to 575 million euros, or $718.8 million. Net profit was 39.2 million euros, or $49 million.
This story first appeared in the November 21, 2006 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Dollar figures have been converted from the euro at average exchange rates for the period to which they refer.
The executive's inaugural train journey to Ferragamo's headquarters on Oct. 1 was just the start of a whirlwind world tour to acquaint himself with the brand's markets. Norsa has racked up a lot of air miles in the first two months of his tenure, circling the globe from Los Angeles to New York and from Hong Kong to Paris. He's off to Japan next week.
Norsa said America and Asia are still the most important points of geographic focus for the company. Of Ferragamo's 20 to 30 planned store openings for next year, most of them will be concentrated in those two markets, in locales as divergent as Riverside, N.J., and Beijing's Central Palace shopping mall. Norsa said sales growth in the U.S. is outpacing all other geographic markets, while growth in Japan is lagging on a combination of factors, including a weak yen.
Still, Norsa sees plenty of growth potential in areas such as China, eastern Europe, central Asia and South America.
Elsewhere, Norsa said he intervened to alter Ferragamo's advertising strategy. He declined to discuss the details of the new spring campaign, but said color is a central element, allowing the images to be used on billboards as well as other forms of non-print advertising. The company is abandoning its slogan-driven campaigns of the past featuring bold-faced mottos such as "I Love Salvatore" and "Love Live."
"I think that the use of other phrases weakens the brand a bit," he said.
In terms of overall style direction, Norsa said the men's collection, designed by Massimiliano Giornetti, has a cohesive image in terms of accessories, apparel and overall runway presentation, but the executive admitted the women's collection needs to find that same consistency. Chief women's wear designer Graeme Black, who left and then returned to the company two years ago, has garnered some lukewarm reviews for his collections. That said, his spring effort of Empire-waisted dresses, Fifties-style skirts and shrunken jackets was well received.
Norsa said he is happy with the overall design team at Ferragamo. When asked about Black's future at the company, he said there are no changes planned for the moment.
"That's an evaluation I will have to make further into the future," he said.
