Corporate Advocacy Program™
I was given a "free consultation" to determine if I "qualified" for any of their programs. In a matter of 3 minutes I was told I was qualified and that they would need to get started right away because I "qualified" to have my tax debt settled for $7,000.00. This "supposed" $7,000.00 would then be repaid to the irs over a 5 year period.I was extremely excited, because my family of four was operating on one income and this was a "golden" opportunity to put our irs problems to rest.
I was told all of this could happen for a fee of 6,500.00. this was a very steep but considerably less than the 48,000.00 savings I was promised. We were told if we came up with half the money they could get started as long as the other half was paid within a two week period. We sacrificed everything we had in savings plus the next two paychecks to make our "4 month miracle happen"( we were told the entire process from start to finish would take four months).
This process began in january 2008. we were told there was no need to contact them for updates on our situation basically we were told not to worry....."HAVE NO FEAR...TAX INCORPORATED IS HERE". how naive we were to believe that.
After 2 months I called to see how everything was coming along and got a voice mail ( yulia Diaconu). I left her several messages but she never returned my calls. In the meantime I was still getting threatning letters from the IRS. Finally in late march I was asked to update my bank statements and when I asked yulia about the threatning letters I was told to "ignore" the statements and that was a "scare tactic" by the IRS to deal with "me directly" instead of tax incorporated. Yulia has a way with words and eventually calmed my fears, little did I know "she was a wolf in sheeps clothing". I would soon find out.
In september 2008 I received a bounce checked fee from my bank and I called to dispute it and i was told all of my accounts had been levied by the IRS and my heart dropped. I had a zero balance and no income at all. That was not he end of the nightmare my employer notified me that my wages were being garnished by the IRS.
I contacted Yulia in a panic and i was told "give me a week to take care of this". this was in october 2008. I was told to refax seemingly hundreds of documents that I already previously faxed. I was then told in a sarcastic insensitive manner.."I am not suppose to be telling you this but the irs will not compromise your tax debt, so I can't make you any promises". I was furious at this point and I asked her What happened to the program that I "qualified " for when I gave up the 6500 and she said.." It is not my job to educate you on the tax resolution process"!!!! I was very vulnerable and livid and in a complete state of shock, she then began yelling at me in a very unprofessional manner telling me that i was not her only case.
I contacted The IRS myself and explained my situation and I was told that "it's unfortunate that you ran into a predator like tax incorporated" but we will still have to levy the wages but that they would work with me on coming up with a suitable payment plan on the 55,000.00. My life was in ruins and I was desperate to have the garnishment lifted so i agreed to pay 1000.00 a month in order to lift the levies on my bank accounts as well the garnishment.
Today my home is in foreclosure and my financial situation is a complete mess. My gas and water were both shut off as a direct result of the levies on my bank acounts and wage garnishments. I had not heard from tax incorporated since october 2008 until I received an e-mail from the better business bureau in response to a complaint i made against Tax inc......The e-mail stated that tax inc had settled my entire balance for 3000.0 saving me 52,000 dollars. This e-mail was from yulia diaconu(tax Inc) to bbb. The e-mail was a bold faced lie!!!!! I contacted the IRS about the e-mail and I was told that was false and no offer in compromise had been made. They also stated that none of the documents I refaxed to yulia back in October were ever faxed or mailed to them. I was advised to stay away from companies like tax inc and that this was not the first time tax inc has done this to one of their customers. When I tried to reach tax inc by phone, I was told my case was closed because I should never had filed a complaint against them.
I am currently working with the IRS to compromise my debt without any third party. Surprisingly everything has been very professional and they have been very helpful and sympathetic to my situation with tax inc. I will probably never get my 6500 back but I learned a very tough lesson. I am interested in any class action lawsuit against this company. It is hurtful that during these tough economic times ,we as Americans are preyed on by companies such as these and nothing is done about it.

#1 UPDATE Employee
AUTHOR: YD - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, January 31, 2012POSTED: Tuesday, January 31, 2012
2004removed $2,898 of penalties and interest.
2005removed $1,173 of penalties and interest.
2006removed $613 of penalties and interest.
All these numbers can be verified on the Account Transcripts from the IRS we are willing to present as proof.
On 12/08/2008 Yulia established a partial pay installment agreement for the taxpayer in the amount of $300 per month. The IRS letter is available to prove this.
The IRS Account Transcripts also show proof that the IRS placed the taxpayers account into a pending Installment agreement status as of 10/17/2008. That is the time when we were able to finally gather all the necessary documents from the taxpayer and the IRS received those supporting documents from us.
Both, the IRS letter and the IRS Account Transcripts confirm the fact that the installment agreement was established on 12/08/2008.
The IRS Account transcripts also show that the wage garnishment was in place from 11/03/2008 through 04/03/2009 despite the fact that the taxpayer was placed on the installment agreement. Please see the explanation below why this happened.
On 10/28/2011 we contacted the IRS to find out why the wage garnishment was in place after we set up an installment agreement for the taxpayer. We spoke to Ms. Ringle, ID#100-1307210. She stated that I/A for $300 was set up on December 8th of 2008. However, she stated that the taxpayer called the IRS on January 8th of 2009 and requested for the wage levy to continue. Therefore, the IRS continued to garnish the taxpayers wages. We have a transcript of the conversation with the IRS available to prove this.
We have diligently completed the work on this account. Unfortunately, some taxpayers will never be happy because they are frustrated with their own situation. That has nothing to do with the work we have done. They have not paid the IRS in several years. In the same manner, they don't want to pay our company for services done. They want to use us and then later complain to get their money back. Please contact us if you have any questions. Once again, we have all documentation from the IRS to prove everything stated in this letter.

The 3 weeks has past, and no check has arrive. While the check was in the mail, I had requested 2 more bank wires to a new bank. The first wire should have been there within 5 business days. It still has not arrived 3 weeks later. They seem to be paying small amounts to members through payment processors- I suppose in order to keep up appearances to most of the members. My situation is a little different, since my withdrawals are large enough to send by bank wire. As of today, they have also stopped sending me any money through the payment processor as well. This is most likely due to the fact that I am now exposing their SCAM. Stay away from Felmina. They will probably vanish during the Christmas/New Year Holiday.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I attended the Gorayeb Weight Loss Hypnosis session in Portland, Maine on 4/16/09. I have 30 pounds to lose, and have already lost 60 from good, old fashion diet and exercise. However, struggling to lose this last 30, I was hoping they would teach me something I didn't already know. Boy, was I wrong or "desperate?"
Our "hypnosis" guy was very cocky, attitude, a picture of health, smooth talker, great salesman, slick. I was turned off immediately. When I entered the room and signed my "contract", he was very rude to everyone before and after me. Here, "sign this" - here's your free gift, which was a "pen" from another hotel which he later asked everyone to return for his "evening" group. Cheapskate! Hmmm, I should have turned around immediately.
Being optimistic, I thought it would get better. Well, like many of the other complaints on this board, he was a smooth talker, made us all feel worthless, fat, and undesireable, but he could "save the day" if we would only buy his special vitamins that you just couldn't find anywhere else on the planet. As it so happened, he just might have some of these life saving vitamins available to us. Hmm. Yah, right. Fortunately, he had just enough for those who wanted them. I didn't. Heck, they cost a fortune, but jeez, they included a 3-part hypnosis CD. Oh puhleez.
After an hour and half of his sales pitch about eating healthy, eliminating carbs, eating more protein, fruits, whole grains, etc (which was all good information for those who didn't know), but pushing his "miracle" vitamins the entire time. You need to have this vitamin and this vitamin and the kind you buy at Walmart won't work, cuz this is the "right" blend....blah blah blah. He even tried to sell "Carb-Out" stating that you could take one of these pills before eating pizza and it would nullify the results. Are you kidding me?? Lets be real. You are what you eat. The more you eat, the more you weigh. Period.
He then took a break for us to buy these miracle vitamins. What stunned me, mannnnny people FLOCKED to buy them. I was speechless that other people didn't catch on to this slick fella from NJ. Yes, vitamins can be good for you, but more importantly choosing the right foods will keep you healthier.
Hmmm...ok, moving on. After an hour and a half of smooth talking about his miracle vitamins and about how unhealthy and undesirable we were, he began his 30 minute hypnosis. Well, it didn't work for me. I fell asleep. Boring....zzzzz.
I'm out 50 bucks, but I learned a valuable lesson. As the saying goes, "if it sounds too good to be true, IT IS!!" The old fashion is still true today, diet and exercise will always work. Forget hypnosis. Forget lipo. Forget all the fancy surgeries and bands. Get down to basics. Exercise, eat right, drink water. Poof.
Ok, I'm done babbling, but for a highly educated, travelled woman, I feel like an idiot that I fell for this scam. I urge al of you considering this type of hypnosis to think twice. Join Weight Watchers or TOPS or some other program that works for you.
Thanks for reading and good luck on your weight loss or stop smoking journey.

Skip to comments.FBI concerned about threat of terror-induced blackouts
Posted on 09/04/2003 2:07:51 PM PDT by presidio9Edited on 04/29/2004 2:03:04 AM PDT by Jim Robinson. [history]
The FBI found no evidence of any type of terrorism or criminal hacking in its investigation of the August power blackout in the Northeast, but the threat of such action remains a concern, the FBI's top counterterrorism official told a House committee Thursday.
(Excerpt) Read more at cnn.com ...
I would change that to "grotesquely huge to the point of deformity" (look again at the photo man!), but to each his own.
I consider the power failure to be a great "dry run" for the government's preparations, and mine.
Unfortunately, I'd have to flunk the government for what it did. Or didn't do. I mostly heard, on my crank-up radio, government and company officials pat themselves on the back for how well they were handling things.
Safe water was the most immediate problem, and they issued "boil water" warnings. As long as you had a non-electric source of heat, you were okay. But there were a lot of people out buying bottled water, and the National Guard "water buffaloes" never showed up.
I think this power failure just blew out of the water the official government doctrine of "three days of supplies, and by then we will pick you up and relocate you". Relocation works for a few hundred, or a few thousand. Any problem that affects 50 million people has to be solved while leaving people in place.
I had enough bottled water bought during the "duct tape scare" that I didn't have to go out and stand in line, trying to buy some. 35 half-liter bottles for $6 at Costco meant I could remain well-hydrated, and not have to burn up energy to boil it.
So the blackout convinced me that safe water is the most important item to have, and one should plan for a supply that will last considerably longer than 3 days. Bottled water is cheap, and doesn't take energy to make safe. Don't wait for the National Guard to deliver water to you.
Also, the larger the emergency, the longer it may take to rescue you. The government is doing a disservice by emphasizing the "three day supply". Think in terms of 30 days of water, food, heat, shelter, and weaponry, and you can face all the smaller emergencies with calm.
Thank you, Great Blackout of 2003.

Transcripts show confusion before blackout struck
The Associated Press 9/4/03 2:54 AM
WASHINGTON (AP) -- One high voltage line failed, and another, and then a third. A coal-burning power plant was already out and a nuclear reactor was struggling to get enough electricity.
"We have no clue," an engineer at the FirstEnergy Corp. control center in Ohio responded when a regional grid monitor asked what was happening.
During the 35 minutes before the nation's worst blackout raced across eight states from Michigan to New York, there was a sense of confusion, uncertainty and anxiety among technicians trying to maintain control of the Ohio power system owned by FirstEnergy, according to transcripts released late Wednesday.
The company and its operation of the grid system south of Cleveland have been at the center of the investigation into the blackout, although FirstEnergy officials have said there were problems on other systems across the Midwest that afternoon, not just in its service area.
Members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee were expected to closely question FirstEnergy officials about its power line problems during the hour before the blackout and how its technicians responded when it resumed a second day of hearings into the blackout Thursday. The transcripts, copies of which were released by the committee, were expected to be a focus.
On Wednesday, Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham, who is heading the government's investigation into the outage, told the House panel that it was too early to conclude what precisely caused the blackout. "We won't jump to conclusions," he said.
Separately, the head of an industry-sponsored power grid reliability watchdog said that last year the industry had 444 transmission operating violations nationwide, including some that had a potential of causing a cascading system failure.
Michehl Gent, president of the North American Electric Reliability Council, said it was "premature" to say whether the type of violations reported in 2002 might have played a role in the blackout. Compliance with NERC's rules is voluntary and carry no penalties.
In all, the House panel released 650 pages of transcripts of telephone communications provided by the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator, including exchanges between MISO grid monitors and FirstEnergy, during the afternoon of Aug. 14.
At about 3:32 p.m. Eastern time that day, a high-voltage line called Hanna-Juniper tripped after power was diverted to it following the failure of another line, causing an overload and the line to sag, hitting a tree.
But four minutes later in the FirstEnergy control room, technicians had no idea what just happened, according to the transcripts.
"Something strange is happening," an MISO technician, Don Hunter, told the Ohio utility, not sure what was amiss. "I've got to find my calculator," he said, trying to get a handle on the power fluctuations.
Told of the failure, a FirstEnergy technician, identified as Schwartz, said, "Daggone it. When did that happen?"
"We've got something going on," he added, promising to investigate. But for the next 20 minutes there was confusion over what lines were out and what the implication might be for the power grid.
Two hours earlier a FirstEnergy coal-burning power plant had gone down and then the nuclear reactor near Perry, Ohio, began having problems.
"They're having a hard time maintaining voltage," a FirstEnergy technician identified as Jerry Snickey told the MISO official at the other end of the phone line, referring to the nuclear unit.
The transmission failures also were still a mystery.
"We have no idea what happened," Snickey said. "We have no clue. Our computer is giving us fits too. We don't even know the status of some of the stuff (power fluctuations) around us."
Hunter, who was at the MISO grid monitoring center in Indiana, expressed frustration at the failure to diagnose the problems erupting in FirstEnergy's system.
"I called you guys like 10 minutes ago, and I thought you were figuring out what was going on there," he complained, according to the transcripts.
"Well, we're trying to," Snickey replied. "Our computer is not happy. It's not cooperating either."
"I can't get a big picture of what's going on," Hunter fretted.
A few minutes later, according to previously released information, another FirstEnergy line failed, and two minutes after that, at 4:08 p.m., utilities in Canada and the Eastern United states observed a wild power swing in a grid called the Lake Erie Loop.
At about 4:11 p.m. the blackout struck across the region.
FirstEnergy is going *down* as the cause for this ...
Nope ... sabotage of the tail by another airline's flight attendant who was sore at her boyfriend on that flight is the current *hot* rumor going around on e-mail ...
GET a degree in one of the sciences ... SECURE a job in a technical capacity .. EXPERIENCE the 'real world' for a change ... then DO your own research ... and learn the truth for yourself ...

ARE you making thing up by any chance?
... "three days of supplies, and by then we will pick you up and relocate you". Relocation works for a few hundred, or a few thousand. Any problem that affects 50 million people has to be solved while leaving people in place.
believe what you want... THAT'S FINE for you folks who light torches, carry pitchforks and recite chants to 'ward' off evil or 'fix' machinery ... those of us in the OBJECTIVE WORLD base our OBSERVATIONS on factual inputs and leave 'beliefs' to those lacking the training or the faculties to comprehend such matters ...
Yeah yeah yeah ... AFTER THE FACT doesn't cut it in a situation like this.

Relate ONE objective item that 'links' this to terrorism.
There isn't one shred of any kind of evidence that's out there ... pointing to a *****broad***** event like a 'generator outage' or 'computer problems' in the control room is insufficient; those things points to *no* particular cause in and by themselves ...

The chance that it was a virus are really, really, REALLY low, because, to quote DiNicola:
The possibility that an Internet "worm" infected FirstEnergy's transmission control-center computers is remote, said DiNicola, because the computers in the control centers are not based on Microsoft operating systems, which are most commonly the targets of such computer attacks.
"Obviously, we are going to look at all issues involving the system in the control center," he said. "But most of the virus and worms under discussion are based on Windows [manufactured by Microsoft]."
I think I have your common thread, your common denominator - sea water ... I hear it's a real big threat if you head east and experience catastrophic airframe failure, poor pilotage or 'nose her down' with ill intent in mind ...

The undergraduate program at the University emphasizes a variety of subspecialties in social and cultural anthropology, but provides, nevertheless, a broad perspective on the fields of archaeology and physical anthropology. Because the department is devoted primarily to undergraduate instruction, students can take advantage of many opportunities to work closely with the faculty and to participate in small seminar classes. Courses are enriched by visits to museums and special exhibits in neighboring cultural centers, by films, and by local field inquiry.

Hey all,
I'm wanting to get rid of all the "Thumbnail, Full size, Title, etc." options in my image uploader and only have the "Send to Editor" option.
When that is clicked I only want the URL of the image to be sent to the editor... no "<a href" info or anything else... just the image URL beginning with "http://" and ending with ".jpg" or ".gif" or whatever.
Is this doable?
Or, how would I do this?

Scene 1 – Busted
It had been months since she'd first sucked her brother's cock at the beach. Nikki had learned to like sucking cock. It made her brother very happy, and in turn he had worked diligently to learn the art of eating her little virgin pussy. Both Justin and Nikki thought the arrangement was perfect. After the first couple of weeks, when Justin had her on her knees several times a day his libido had calmed somewhat until now they got together three or four times a week, which kept both very happy.

moreHere is the collection of nonfiction pieces that John Updike was compiling when he died in January 2009. It opens with a self-portrait of the writer in winter, a Prospero who, though he fears his most dazzling performances are behind him, reveals himself in every sentence to be in deep conversation with the sources of his magic. It concludes with a moving meditation on a world without religion, without art, and on the difficulties of faith in a disbelieving age. In between are pieces on Peanuts, Mars, and the songs of Cole Porter, a pageant of scenes from early Massachusetts, and a good deal of Updikean table talk. At the heart of the volume are dozens of book reviews from The New Yorker and illustrated art writings from The New York Review of Books. Updike's criticism is gossip of the highest sort. We will not hear the likes of it again. less

The hammers and power saws are still out, but just not at the frequency they were in first couple of years after the storm.
This is because Lauderdale County's Habitat for Humanity has been so successful in getting storm victims into homes.
"Those that moved here don't have a support system of families," said executive director Fonda Rush. "There's are still on the coast or New Orleans, so they became our family."
And this family tie gets stronger and stronger every year. Rush started feeling the very familiar, storm-related emotions about two weeks ago.
"Actually I've been crying for three days," said Rush. "And you get to the point where you don't want to talk about it, because those emotions come to the top."
But Rush tries not to focus on the sad memories, but instead look at the good that has come in the last five years. And she says there is plenty to talk about.
One thing Hurricane Katrina did was force the Lauderdale County affiliate to make some quick changes. For example, all of the volunteers who come to visit need a place to stay. Now there are guest rooms packed full of bunk beds that can sleep ten people comfortably.
"The way I look at it, and we've talked about it, is that we grew up here at Habitat," said Rush. "Katrina made us grow up, become more professional, more business-like, so we could continue to grow and grow our ministry."
The updates continue in the kitchen, where food for staff and volunteers can be prepared during busy build weeks, and in the board room. The staff used recycled materials to create a space where they can meet. All of this is needed as storm relief continues to this day.
"We are all still recovering," said Rush. "I don't know when we'll be through."

Hi there,
I have just installed wordpress on my machine and already testing it. I would like to migrate my web to wordpress 3.5.1. and one of the main requirements I need is Rss items (content, description and title mainly) to be searchable/retrievable by the default or any other advanced search plugin.

So far, it does not retrieve rss content. Any light about this?
Please help, this kind of features would help me to decide what cms to choose.

Dib Officially Off Cotto-Trout, Velez in Place, Ponce in?
By Rick Reeno
Adam Houda, the personal attorney for IBF featherweight champion Billy Dib (35-1, 21KOs), has officially confirmed that his client is no longer defending his title on December 1st at Madison Square Garden in New York. Dib was being positioned to fight undefeated contender Jayson Velez (19-0, 14KOs) as part of the Showtime televised card which features Miguel Cotto vs. Austin Trout in the main event.
"My client Billy "The Kid" Dib will not be fighting December 1 [in] New York. It appears Billy has been caught in the cross-fire of boxing politics," Houda said in a written statement.
BoxingScene.com reported last Sunday that Dib was likely being replaced on the card and there was already an ongoing search to secure a new opponent.
Multiple sources told BoxingScene that Showtime was not on board with Dib's involvement on the televised card. Although several years have passed, those in high authority still have fresh memories of the dreadful HBO televised fight between Dib and Steven Luevano in 2008 [Bernard Hopkins-Kelly Pavlik pay-per-view].
One potential replacement for Dib, according to sources with knowledge of the details, is WBC featherweight champion Daniel Ponce De Leon. De Leon is one of the candidates being considered and certainly a bigger opportunity for Velez. Regardless of the finalized replacement, BoxingScene was told that Velez would indeed remain in place as part of the Showtime card.
Regarding Houda's remark about boxing politics - some sources believe Dib's removal is the direct result of the escalating war of words between rapper/promoter 50 Cent and former friend Floyd Mayweather Jr. The two individuals were once close friends, but their relationship went sour over a business deal gone bad.
Last week, Curtis Jackson [50 Cent] engaged Mayweather in a war of words on Twitter. Jackson has also taken public shots at Golden Boy Promotions and their company president Oscar De La Hoya. Jackson's position wasn't helped when fighthype.com recently published a revealing handwritten letter to Mayweather. The letter was written by one of Jackson's associates, Tommy "Smalls" Summers, who pleaded with Mayweather to break his existing business relationships with Golden Boy and powerful adviser Al Haymon.
Dib is promoted by Jackson under a company called SMS Promotions.
However, Golden Boy and Haymon are working with Miguel Cotto Promotions on the December 1st event. Obviously, there was absolutely no reason for Golden Boy and Haymon to help Jackson secure a televised position for one of his fighters on a high profile event. And while Cotto Promotions is the lead promoter of the event, they have a very close working relationship with both Golden Boy and Haymon.
Velez is not ready for DeLeon the guy needs at least 3 more fights before he takes on DeLeon... DeLeon will likely ko him although Velez can also hit,but never faced a strong guy like DeLeon...Comment by "Smokin Sugar" on 11-09-2012

The last contact I had with Standard Auto was on May 4, 2009 when I spoke with Steve and was informed to have my garage check several items and get back with him on the results. As of today, May 31,2009 I have not been able to contact Standard Auto. Their voicemail box is full. I have found another number for the owner David Steadman on the internet and I left a very detailed voice mail on that number, but since have not been able to get thru on that number.
I get a recording now saying that all circuits are busy to try my call later. That number is 757-494-9585. I have sent several emails and have not gotten a reply from that either. I am very upset that I have wasted 1900.00 for the engine and 660.00 for the installation of the engine and now I am going to have to spend that money again with no hopes of recovering the expenses. LESSON LEARNED...investigate all websites before making purchases !!!!
