They are experts at ripping people off.
I have talked to people that worked there and they tell me that they have been doing this for many years.
They might give you the first check on time or even early but most likely it`s downhill after that.
When the check bounces the excuses will be like: a big company didn`t pay us, don`t worry it will all be paid up in no time.
When you finally quit because you run out of money - he will tell you that you didn`t give them notice (will delay your money).
Then they will tell you that they will have to wait and pull a DOT report to see if you didn`t rack up any points on their shady record in the US

Their CVOR on the Canadian side is suspended for safety reasons ( which they won`t tell you )
http://www. [continued below]....
If you are a customer of OTR isn`t it good to know who you entrust your freight with.
They change Banks every few months to wean off anybody who might go back to get a bounced check certified.
They try to intimidate anybody that stands up to them.

This is just a thank you for posting your report the dirty b*****d got me also, I wish people would post more complaints because I know that there are so many others.
This dirt bag has been in business for years, and yes he has been ripping people off for years also, the people that work at his company and that have stayed, are all family members, he has a very small handful of employees that have stayed they are the dispatchers and along with him and the rest of the family, that are ripping everyone off and treating them like dirt.
I found it very hard to believe that there are companies out there that treat people as badly as these people do, until I spent the few miserable weeks that I did and fought for close to a year for my money that I through hell to earn. I'm still working on getting my money.
Mr dirt bag wears people down, so they don't fight for their money, well Richard dirt bag Meyers if you read this, because I know you troll the internet for comments like this, I will fight you until I get my money.
Good luck to the others that continue to fight also.

I don't even know where to start with this wedding. You can plainly see in the images from Liz Banfield just how much thought was put into every beautiful detail. The butterfly and bee motif carried throughout, the beautiful gown details mirrored in the cake, all the special little touches for the lucky, lucky guests... I don't think there was a moment that wasn't carefully and lovingly thought out by the beautiful bride and handsome groom.

May 2013
Presented as part of ADI's Israeli Contemporary Dance Program
"One does not just watch a dance by Zvi Gotheiner. One enters a world with its own internal logic, a sensual, organic world of movement, language, and images where one is pulled along by currents unseen and inevitable."
– Dance Magazine
While I see the creation of art as an impulse, I have goals for myself as an artist. I strive to be alert, fearless and compassionate.
A few Words about the creation of DABKE:
The idea of creating a contemporary dance piece based on a Middle Eastern folk dance revealed itself in a Lebanese restaurant in Stockholm, Sweden. My Israeli partner and a Lebanese waiter became friendly and were soon dancing the Dabke between tables. While patrons cheered, I remained still, transfixed, all the while envisioning this as material for a new piece.
Dabke (translated from Arabic as stomping of the feet) is a traditional folk dance and is now the national dance of Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, and Palestine. Israelis have their own version. It is a line dance often performed at weddings, holidays and community celebrations. The dance strongly references solidarity, and traditionally only men participated. The dancers, linked by hands or shoulders, stomp the ground with complex rhythms, emphasizing their connection to the land. While the group keeps rhythm, the leader, called Raas (meaning "head"), improvises on pre-choreographed movement phrases. He also twirls a handkerchief or string of beads known as a Masbha.
As a child and teenager growing up in a Kibbutz in northern Israel, Friday nights were folk dance nights, This tradition continues today. One of the most beloved of these dances is a Debka, albeit an Israeli rendition of the Arab Dabke. The Israeli Debka and the Arab Dabke are linked historically. During the first decades of the 20th Century, Jews migrated from Europe to Palestine in large waves. The leaders and intellectuals of this movement made a deliberate effort to create an authentic Israeli culture that differed from the old world image of European Judaism. No longer the meek, the victim, the wanderer, these Jews were viral, masculine, and rooted to the land. Although forever in territorial conflict with their neighbors, the Israelis borrowed elements from Arabic culture that captured the sound, color, taste and rhythm of the Levant. Dabke is a case in point.
I have great admiration for the Dabke dancers of the Middle East. They are magnificent, athletic, loose, spontaneous and on occasion ecstatic. I have watched hundreds of Dabke clips on YouTube. This virtual expedition has shown me the importance of Dabke as a cultural sharpener as well as a diffuser of Middle Eastern identity in that all speak it's language. I decided to craft a choreographic process, using the internet as my research tool in order to learn the Dabke form. I invited each dancer in my company to select their favorite Dabke clip from YouTube. Together we studied the dancer's movement, phrasing, rhythmical foot work, hand gestures and general body language. We then fused this material with contemporary movement. Our intention was not to reconstruct a traditional Dabke dance per se, but to use it as inspiration for exploring a different movement sensibility.
ZviDance brings its audiences a passionate vision of community in a modern age. A collaborative alliance among artists, the company's stirring work celebrates diversity by melding movement genres into the distinct dance vocabulary constantly evolving and refusing to succumb to dialectics of the medium.
Led by Israeli-born Artistic Director Zvi Gotheiner, the company is shaped by a collaborative model of creation, involving the ensemble and designers from the initial research phase, so as to constantly push the methodology and ethics of a creation process within an inter-disciplinary format.
In the last 20 years of existence, ZviDance has received critical praise and stable funding for its artistic projects, a work that fearlessly refuses to be bounded to specific thematic or aesthetic dogma. The company performs frequently at home in such New York venues as the Joyce Theater, Dance Theater Workshop and Lincoln Center Out-of-Doors. ZviDance has toured across North America to festivals such as Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival and The American Dance Festival, and abroad to Germany, Poland, Russia, Israel, Colombia, Brazil, Ecuador and Japan.
-Jodee Nimerichter, Co-Director
American Dance Festival
"Gotheiner is one of those rare choreographers who is able to convey human dilemma and aspiration through movement and form and make traditional modern steps resonate with individuality."
-The Village Voice
"…heroically surging, exalting dances, the Gotheiner hallmarks."
-The New York Times
"…the power of their charisma is sensational and brings emotional qualities of human life into impressive movement codes."
-Stuttgarter Zeitung
"…lush, open, flowing, often airy, but precise movement style, while simultaneously illuminating each dancer and his gifts."
-Dance Magazine
"…capable of transfixing its observers and then transporting them to a different emotional plane."

Conservatives rallied at the Mississippi Capitol Thursday, with a sneak peak of what's to come this weekend.
It's called the 9-12 Project. Participants say it's a non-political group designed to bring Americans back to the day after Sept. 11, 2001.
People also held up signs and talked about lower taxes and bringing back Constitutional rights.
Two conservative candidates running against long-time congressman, Bennie Thompson, campaigned at the rally.
They expressed their views about the way things are going in Mississippi.
"We need to strengthen our district more," said Richard Cook, a candidate for the second district congressional seat. "Mississippi needs more jobs. We have got a great culture, a great history, and we need to keep this history going."
"So we have the people; we have the resources. What we need is the leadership," said Bill Marcy of Meridian, also a candidate for the second congressional district. "We need to, not bring in government jobs, we need to bring in private sector jobs."
This movement is an extension of the Tea Party rallies. A bigger Tea Party rally is taking place this weekend at the Jackson fairgrounds.

Ariza Believes Pacquiao Overtrained, Mosley is Finished
By Ronnie Nathanielsz
After pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao dropped Sugar Shane Mosley in the third round with a cracking left hook. the look on Mosley's face showed he was scared beyond belief and set the tone for the rest of the fight which was hyped as a battle but turned out to be a minor skirmish..
Following the knockdown the 39-year-old Mosley simply refused to engage Pacquiao in any form of combat even as Pacquiao told strength and conditioning coach Alex Ariza behind closed doors "if Mosley wants to go toe to toe and come after me and try to knock me out in the first round, I'll get him out."
Besides his constant running which drew boos from the jam packed MGM Grand Garden Arena which was rare for a Pacquiao fight, Mosley was on survival mode and although Pacquiao chased and tried to catch him in the last three rounds, the experience and the ring smarts of the first African-American Pacquiao faced and the Filipino's own problem of stiffness in his left leg helped save Mosley from being stopped.
To us as well as to many diehard Pacquiao supporters Manny appeared to be slower than in his previous fights where his hand-speed accentuated his explosive power against the much bigger and taller Antonio Margarito and before that against the hard-hitting Miguel Cotto.
The blinding speed was absent and Ariza shared our opinion that Pacquiao who trained relentlessly for eight weeks never missing a day in the gym had probably overtrained for the fight. Normally, Pacquiao trains a maximum of six or seven weeks which celebrated trainer Freddie Roach has always considered good enough for a fighter of Pacquiao's caliber.
There were times in training where both Ariza and Roach had to try and hold him back but Pacquiao often had his way going an extra two rounds in sparring or on the punch-mitts.
In a post fight conversation Ariza conceded he too felt that Pacquiao was slower because he had "over-trained a little bit."
One other factor that worked against Pacquiao and helped Mosley was what was first believed to be cramps that slowed down Pacquiao in his pursuit of the former three-time world champion.
Ariza clarified that "it wasn't cramps. It was a stiffness in his left front calf" which happened even in his first fight with Juan Manuel Marquez.
The strength and conditioning guru attributed the stiffness to "dehydration" which Ariza blamed on Manny's "not resting" pointing out that Pacquiao "ran on Thursday which was two days before the fight."
Ariza was angry at the manner in which Mosley "got scared after he tasted the power" of Manny when he dropped him in round three. It was similar to the Joshua Clottey fight when Pacquiao hurt the Ghana fighter with a vicious body shot after which he merely covered up and went into a survival mode shell.
Ariza said Mosley "didn't like to take any risks or take any chances. He didn't try to win. That's the whole f---ing purpose and if you don't try to win you're finished."
Roach himself said "I don't think he (Mosley) tried to win the fight. I think he just tried to survive and when you get to that point in boxing, I think its time to retire."
Even at the end of the fight Mosley said he could hardly walk. But to his credit, he survived the greatest fighter of all-time in Manny Pacquiao and walked away protecting his record of never being knocked down and at least $5 million richer.

Historians Trace an Unholy Alliance; Religion as the Root Of Nationalist Feeling
Published: May 31, 2003
(Page 2 of 2)
Catherine de Medici, Queen Regent of France, similarly exploited religious passion. After trying to mediate between the Catholics and the Huguenots, she manipulated anti-Huguenot feeling and in 1572 helped plot the infamous St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre, in which more than 15,000 Protestants were slaughtered in and around Paris.
''Nationalism thus began to emerge by piggybacking on the passion of religious conflicts,'' Mr. Marx writes.
Still, many scholars are skeptical.
''If the point is that state building enlisted religion, then that makes good sense, but I am not sure we are talking about nationalism,'' said Eugen Weber, a professor emeritus of history at the University of California at Los Angeles and an expert on French nationalism.
Modernists like Mr. Weber and others insist that the early modern states were fundamentally different, multilingual, multiethnic entities in which the sense of nation had not yet been firmly established. ''The kings of Spain governed over modern Belgium and Austria, as well as parts of what are now France, Italy, Slovenia and Croatia,'' said David A. Bell, a historian who argues that the French Revolution was the critical event in establishing French nationalism.
Before that, he pointed out, the royal families of Europe married across national lines, and no one worried much over whether a German sat on the throne of England, Italians ran France, or Spaniards governed Austria.
''With the French Revolution, rulers do not simply require obedience, but homogeneity,'' Mr. Bell said. ''They are concerned that people read the same books, identify with the same history, see themselves as having something innate in common and as part of a national project. It's not that national feeling didn't exist before, but nationalism, as I see it, implies a program to make people the same.''
While the kings of France cared little that most of their subjects spoke various languages, post-revolutionary leaders began to insist on standardized language and education. This happened not just in France, but in reactionary Austro-Hungary, where in the 1780's, the Hapsburgs made German the official language of administration. The increased complexity of modern administration -- with the need for a vast bureaucracy of literate bureaucrats -- made Latin impractical and the use of vernacular German essential, suddenly sharpening the Magyar, Romanian, Czech and Italian subjects' sense of themselves as discriminated minorities with their own national identities.
The increased identification of nationality with language in the late 18th and 19th centuries has led many scholars to see the print revolution and widespread literacy as crucial factors in the formation of nationalism. ''From the start, the nation was conceived in language, not in blood,'' Benedict Anderson wrote in 1983 in his classic book ''Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origins and Spread of Nationalism.''
Mr. Marx reverses this formulation, insisting that nationalism is soaked in blood. ''Terrible to say, less blood proved less binding, for nothing is as powerful a basis of mass passion and cohesion than killings,'' he said. While Mr. Marx grants the importance of both literacy and industrialization in the creation of full-blown, 19th-century nationalism, he insists that the period of religious strife in 16th- and 17th-century Europe forms an important precedent. ''You can think of it as a kind of proto-nationalism,'' he said.
Ms. Colley, meanwhile, dismisses the idea that nationalism can come about only with literacy and a nation of voting citizens. ''I think you have to look at religion as a crucial part of identity in many preliterate societies,'' she said. ''Most of the people who starting resisting the British Raj in India could not read or write, but they felt passionately Indian. The Russians who put up a fierce resistance to Napoleon's invasion were often illiterate but had a strong sense of holy mother Russia and the land as scripture.''
Ms. Colley said she was not surprised that there was reluctance to accept the religious roots of nationalism. ''Americans are in denial about their own nationalism,'' added Ms. Colley, who is British but has taught for many years in the United States. ''They say, 'We don't do nationalism, we are a multiethnic country, we have patriotism.' But the U.S. still sees itself as the City on a Hill, fighting against 'the axis of evil.' Americans have a very theologically rooted sense of nation.''

Doctor seeks breast cancer survivors for two-year study at UCSD in La Jolla
By Linda Thompson
Dr. Cheryl Rock, professor of Family and Preventive Medicine at the UCSD School of Medicine, is committed to helping the 2.5 million women who are breast cancer survivors. To do that, she needs 200 women from San Diego for a two-year study involving diet modification and exercise. These volunteers must be between the ages of 21 to 85, overweight, and surviving breast cancer.
The goal is for the women to lose at least seven percent of their body fat.
Funded by a National Cancer Institute grant of $5.3 million, Dr. Rock's study, ENERGY (Exercise and Nutrition to Enhance Recovery and Good Health for You) will involve cancer survivors in San Diego, Denver, Birmingham and St. Louis.
She is working in collaboration with other doctors recruiting a total of 800 women from these four cities.
In explaining the study, Dr. Rock said many women experience weight gain while battling breast cancer — and not from overeating. She said the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation often make it difficult for women to maintain an active lifestyle. This inactivity creates muscle atrophy that in turn lowers the metabolic rate needed to burn calories.
Rock said being overweight is the "big gorilla in the closet," which needs to be tackled because 60 percent of U.S. adults are overweight and data indicates a 78 percent increase in risk for recurrence of breast cancer patients if they are overweight at the time of diagnosis.
During the clinical trial, scientific evidence will be collected that either proves or disproves her hypotheses. If the evidence supports her beliefs, the study could change the way doctors treat breast cancer patients. Data is also necessary to ensure insurance companies provide coverage to support weight loss and management for breast cancer survivors as a new standard of clinical care.
Dr. Rock said study participants could expect to have their blood samples analyzed for estrogen and insulin hormone levels. Scientists are concerned about high levels of insulin and estrogen because these hormones are designed to grow cells — whether cells are cancerous or not.
Studying the issue since 1997, Dr. Rock authored a paper that showed a correlation between high blood estrogen and the recurrence of cancer. Her study has raised the call for postmenopausal women to lose excess body fat because at this stage of life, estrogen is no longer produced by ovaries, but by fat.
The new study will include participation in a 2-year behavioral weight loss program, with a support group that will meet weekly for the first 16 weeks.
"Changing behavior is not easy. Losing weight is not easy," said Dr. Rock, "and that is the reason for having weekly meetings comprised of about 12 women in each group. The program is to encourage a greater consumption of fruits, vegetables and high fibers in the diet and fewer calories. The trial doesn't provide food, but participants will receive a scale, a food diary to track food intake, and a pedometer."
After 16 weeks, participants will not simply be cut loose, but they will enter a less intense program created by Dr. Wendy Demark-Wahnefried, Ph.D., R.D. in Birmingham, Ala.
As far as the exercise involved, Dr. Rock said she encourages women to aim for an average of one hour each day of moderate purposeful exercise to be tailored by study coordinator and certified cancer exercise trainer Shoshi Barkai, M.S., R.D. Related issues, like incontinence, hot flashing, and mastectomies have all been taken into consideration.
Dr. Rock discussed the positive transformation women encountered in her previous study, SHAPE. She said the women in the program went from "literally being couch potatoes" to exercise addicts.
About Dr. Rock:
Dr. Cheryl Rock, Ph.D., R.D., is a professor in the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine and the Cancer Prevention and Control Program, at the UCSD School of Medicine. She completed undergraduate training in nutrition and dietetics at Michigan State University, achieved a Master of Medical Science degree in clinical nutrition at Emory University, and was awarded her doctoral degree in nutritional sciences from UCLA School of Public Health.
To join the study:
Participants must be at least 21 years old and have been diagnosed with stage I, II, or III A breast cancer. They will be involved in a two-year active intervention program. If interested, contact Shoshi Barkai at Moores UCSD Cancer Center, (858) 822-2779.

Urban LandMark works with Development Workshop in Angola
Home to some six-million people and growing, Luanda confronts unique challenges in managing land assets essential for housing and economic development. The city suffers from land market distortions caused by poor land development and management policies, including the slow provision of infrastructure and services, poor land information systems and cumbersome land transaction procedures.
The study aims to give policy-makers a better understanding of how formal and informal land markets function in Luanda. It questions the assumption that informality is an enemy to development and that in the short to medium term everyone will come to be protected within the modern formal system. Moreover, it questions the assumption that everyone wants to operate in this way because it is 'better'.
Informal land markets serve the overwhelming majority of Luanda's population, not just the poor - many of the middle classes and elites do not have legal titles to the land and housing they occupy. Most of these people have acquired land that they consider to be their own through a variety of informal mechanisms, all commonly perceived to be legitimate.
The study makes the following recommendations to improve how urban land markets function:

I just finished moving the upload directories on more of my sites in order to pull the images from a cookieless domain.
However, now this otherwise brilliant plugin no longer works :-/
The error message tells me that the images "must be within the wordpress directory".
Well, they aren't and I am not going to move them back as my site now loads faster as before.
However, I am thinking there must be a way to allow the plugin to do its thing regardless where the images are.
Since they still are on the same server it should be possible or do I have no such luck?

Skill Level Beginner
Now as I said earlier, I prefer to work with linear animation in some of 4d light and after effects. And then add curves when I want them. The default in both applications is to have spline interpetation between key frames. But I usually change my project settings to use linear interpolation. Using the key interpolation settings for the project, and then I add curves when I want them, and I'm going to show you how to do that here.
And I will in chapter 404.c.d and I have an existing animation in here Where the head is moving side to side using spline based animation. But the, body is moving back and forth using linear interpolation. Now if I want t to add a little bit of softness, to that, maybe not as much as the default would be. Then I can manually add a little curve to my animation. In the F curve mode. So just to recap, we toggle between F curve mode and key mode by hitting space bar, so make sure you're in F curve mode.
You can make sure that you see as much as you can By hitting frame all and it shows us this linear animation. Now, first thing that I can do is select a single keyframe, and change the interpolation type. The default as I have it set up is linear. Normally it would be splaying. And we'll talk about that in a minute. But one other option is to use step. And you'll notice if I click on step it changes it to, what we call in After Effects, toggle hold, where it only moves when it reaches a keyframe.
So if you want very sudden, jerky animation, you can use that step mode to do a toggle hold. I'm going to undo that so we're back to linear And you'll see that it highlights the Linear button again. Or, I can go to Spline. Now, watch what happens. If I click on spline, it only adjusts this side of the curve. Very important to note. In After Effects, it would generally do both the in and out side of the curve. If you want to change both, let's just go back to frame all, we would select both of these keyframes.
So this one and this one, and click on spline, and then we get curves between both. And just like After Effects, I get these handles that I could use to adjust the values on my graph, or the timing on my graph. Now if I hold down the Cmd key, on the Mac, or Ctrl key on Windows, what that allows me to do is just drag the handles in and out without dragging them up and down. And that's handy because it allows me to adjust the curve, without accidentally, pulling the handles down, which would also adjust the value you can see there.
Suggesting the value up in the main window. So handly little shortcut. Hold down command, or control, in windows just to constrain it so that you can go in and tweak those curves without accidentally adjusting the values. Okay and frame all is very very handy to use a lot so H button on the keyboard will allow you to do a quick frame all. Now we can also do easy eases and ease in and ease outs as we can in after effects.
We have easy ease, ease in, and ease out. And those will give us the same kind of eases that we get in aftereffects if we want to we can make a slight adjustment to that. So let's have a look at What a difference that has made to the animation. So a much smoother animation than we had before just by adding a few little curves. Incidentally, there are other buttons in here for things like auto tangents and they also control the attributes of the key frame.
If you select a key frame You can just click on auto tangents, and it will automatically put the auto tangent values on which are also highlighted appear in the attributes. If we switch of auto tangents, you see that you can add your own values for Left time and right time, left value and right value, so that allows you to adjust the timing on either side of a key frame. And various other options as well. You have break tangents. So if we frame all again, so h to frame all, select this one, and if I want to adjust this tangent separately from this tangent, I can come in here and say break tangents.
And that allows me to adjust one, separately from the other, so you can get a lot more control over the timing, get a sudden change there. A more sudden change in direction. Various options for locking tangents, and tangents lengths, and locking time, and locking values. And then we have zero angle tangent and finally zero length tangent. So all these buttons will help you adjust your curves and get exactly the right animation. Give you a lot of control over the timing and the values.
And there are even more options in the F curve menu. We're not going to go through all of these options. There are loads of options available in the timeline in the various different menus, but if you want to find out more about any of them. Use cinema for these excellent online help to find out more. And here you'll see I've brought up help for the timeline, so if you want to go in. And find out more about all the individual elements within the timeline, you can do so here.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I personally have worked for this agency - PLEASE AVOID WORKING FOR THEM!! THERE ARE LOADS OF PROFESSIONAL, FRIENDLY, RELIABLE AND SAFE PEOPLE TO WORK FOR OUT THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was offered employment with Funtastic after telephone and e-mail correspondence. The position offered was for an Animator/Dancer, which is clearly written on the contract e-mail to me by the Agency. During the telephone conversations between myself and the Agency, the position was discussed and I was told it was to perform in the proffessional eveing shows at the Hotel, as well as daytime duties as a general entertainer within the Hotel. However, when I arrived at the Hotel and met my team members, they informed me I had been hired as 'the Kids Club girl' and it became apparent after further discussion that the vacancy I was filling was not the position I had agreed to and accepted.
I wish to point out at this stage that during my troubles with Funtastic Entertainment Agency/Chabah's Entertainment Agency I approached The Department of Labour in Cyprus with a copy of my contract and was told it was neither binding or even legal. I also told them I was working 8-10 hours a day, which prompted them to inform me that after 8 hours, any worker must recieve time and a half payment by Cyprus Law. I relayed this to the Agency and recieved a silent response, and was never paid time and a half.
For ease of reading, the following bullet points list various other problems I encoured as an employee of Funtastic Entertainment Agency/Chanbah's Entertainment Agency.
- My first payment was due on Saturday 15th June 2013 (contract states that payment shall be given on 15th of every month), however I did not recieve payment until Tuesday 18th June 2013. No reason was given for this, other than June 15th being a Saturday. (This was not the only time payment was late).
- On Tuesday 18th June, when my payment finally arrived, it was 2 week's short, and I was told this was due to a 2-week probationary period – I had never been made aware of such a period. When I raised this with the Agency, I was told first that it was in my contract, it wasn't. I was then told that I had been informed of the probationary period during e-mail correspondence with the Agency – I re-read all such e-mails and nothing of this nature had been mentioned. It was only after telling the Agency this I recieved the missing money.
- During one time when payment was late, the situation became so dire I felt I had no choice but to go on strike and refrain from working until payment was recieved. I spoke with the Hotel Manager (who has since retired) and asked him for help in this situation, and he called the Agency and asked them to come to the Hotel immediately to discuss this. I agreed to return to my duties until the Agency arrived. I later discovered the Agency had come to the Hotel, but not seen me or even attempted contact. I returned the the Hotel Manager and informed him of the situation – he then rang the Agency again and asked them to come back, which they did. Upon thier arrival, the Agency manger called me and asked me to meet him to rectify the situation. I went to do so, along with my team. I was greeted by Lido Chabah (Agency manager) who had folded arms and an aggressive persona. He asked me to explain myself, which I began to do however, I was unable to finish as he began shouting over me that I had 'no right to stop working' and that he felt like not paying me at all 'because of the trouble I caused'. He continued to fire questions at me, however I was never given the opourtunity to properly answer as he would shout over me any time I attempted to. He also told me my behaviour was due to the 'influence' of personal friendships between myself and other employees of Funtastic, and that if he saw certain other employees entering my apartment he would 'burn the f*****g thing down'. I was also told I was never to approach the Hotel Manager again under any circumstances. Needless to say, I felt totally threatened by Mr. Chabah within this situation. (There was also times during the season in which I witnessed him saying similar things to other Funtastic employees – twice telling one young female employee she had 'half an hour to pack her things and get out' of her apartment despite total awareness on his part she had aboslutely nowhere else to go and no money to fly home).
- There was no proffessional regard from the Agency concerning contact and/or meetings. We would often be 'summonsed' at moment's notice via a telephone call for an imediate meeting, usually during break times. There was never any concern from the Agency that myself and other team members were clearly feeling exhausted, or that our resting time was being interuppted often for matters which could have been discussed at a later date via e-mail or telephone correspondence.
- There was an obvious need for extra staff within the Hotel Animation Team – when myself and my team raised this with the Agency, we were assured they had already hired an extra person and that he would be ariving within the next couple of weeks. This other person never materialised. When we asked the Agency about this, the response we recieved was that the new team member 'let them down' and they were working to find someone else. No mention of this ever arose again.
- Due to more rest time being needed, myself and my team felt we had no option but to take it upon ourselves to devise a new rota whereby we took individual evenings off so as to provide us with extra hours to sleep. We approached the Hotel Manager to discuss this, and it was agreed between the four of us (myself, my other team members and the manager of the Hotel) that this was fair. We approached the manager of the Hotel due to not being able to arrange a meeting with the Agency and were told the Hotel also struggled to organise meetings with the Agency. When the Agency got to hear of this, we were told we had 'no right' to take it upon ourselves to do this – however after discussion with the Agency, the support of the Hotel Managment saw us recieving the self-arranged evenings off.
- Within the last 6 weeks of the contract, it was put to us as the Animation Team that we were to work in the evenings of our only day off every week. I personally refused, due to it being written in my contract that I would work 6 days a week with one full day off.
- Throughout my contract, I requested to recieve pay slips when payment was given, and that I would recieve my money via bank transfer. It was only when my second wage was given (15th July 2013) that it was done so via bank transfer – all other times were either by cheque (meaning I didnt actually recieve payment until a week after said cheque being given due to clearing time on the bank's part) or by cash – something I continually informed the Agency I did not want as I had given them my bank details for payment purposes. Only on 1st November 2013 (one day after my contract finished) did I recieve pay slips from the Agency.
- My contract stated that the Agency would keep €50 back from every payment as 'trust money' and I would recieve this on the date of completion of contract (31st October 2013). On my last day, I telephoned the Agency and asked what time they would be coming to the Hotel to pay me – the response I got was 'what gave you the impression I was coming today?' I did not recieve payment until 1st November 2013.
- Included within my contract was a provided uniform. The uniform we were given was not fit for purpose. There was only ever t-shirts - we were expected to provide our own bottoms completely. Only one top from the nine given fitted me properly – the others were out of shape, shrunk, 'hard', and some even stained from previous use. My team and I approched the Agency over this and were assured new uniform had been ordered. We asked continually over a number of weeks when said new uniform would arrive, however it never did – as a result we were reduced to wearing our own clothes.
- It was also part of my contract that accomodation was provided, however the apartment I was given raised several problems for me and my housemates during our time there.
- Upon my arrival, there was no electricity at all meaning I was unable to inform my family I had arrived safely or even take a shower after 8 hours of travelling. It was also obvious there had been no regard given for the clenliness of the apartment, forcing me to have to thoroughly clean before being able to even unpack. After I had been there a few hours, Mr. Chabah came to my apartment to fix the electric – he did not introduce himself and it was not until a couple of weeks later when he came to the Hotel that I became aware he was my manager.
- The toilet did not flush properly.
- Three light bulbs were missing – it was only after three weeks of asking new ones were provided.
- The oven did not work – food was provided for me by the Hotel, however the other two occupants of the apartment at the time were forced to either eat out daily or find other people within the apartment block who would allow them to use thier ovens/cookers. Also, no utensils, crokery or cutlery were provided.
- Plug sockets were hanging out of the walls or did not work at all – this was never rectified.
- The washing machine continually broke down – it took 6 weeks for the Agency to provide a new one with no responsability taken for the fact we were forced to use our own money to do our washing in Launderettes.
- No air conditoning or fans were provided by the Agency, thus forcing myself and the other occupants to borrow fans from the Hotel when it became too hot for us to be able to sleep or even be inside comfortably.
I never felt there was any care or responsibility taken by the Agency where employees were concerned. Myself and other employees regularly felt completely bullied and belittled by Mr. Chabah and his persona, resulting in feeling that problems were unlikely to get sorted and that we sometimes weren't in a position to stick up for ourselves due to fear of our employer and his threats.
I hope this is of use to you.

I went through twenty sessions of therapy. The therapists were good and I have no complaint about the therapists. However, the billing is my complaint.
I found that Peak was billing the insurance company at a much higher than cash pay amount. With the insurance "discount" I became obligated to a $70 per session fee. One of the therapists brought it to my attention at that time, that I should not be billed so much, since Peak's full retail cash pay was only $50 per session.
When I brought this up to the billing office, the response was that peak's cash pay is $50 per session, but since they ran it through insurance they were entitled to charge me $70 per session - a 40% increase over their cash pay. Peak was completely unwilling to adjust their bill to the cash pay price. Also, while I have paid off half the bill in a two month period, Peak is aggressively pursuing collection and is threatening to send me to its collection agency.
Conversely, my neurologist has been gladly accepting monthly payments based upon my deductible and have had no problems with the neurologist.
While I am stuck paying this inflated bill, I want others to know about Peak's "gotcha" billing tactics. Hopefully, others will not be taken in by Peak's billing practices.

SUBMITTED: Wednesday, October 14, 2009POSTED: Wednesday, October 14, 2009
I just wanted to say in regards to insurance, unfortunatley it is ultimatley the patient' s resposibility to know their own benefits, some medical facilities check benefits as a courtesy, but also I have gone to doctor's offices before where they have no idea what the benefits are and ask me if I know what my co-pay is.
Also I am sure the facility has a contracted rate with your insurance company, which means that it doesn't matter if they bill the insurance $5.00 or $5,000.00 just for seeing you they get paid a flat rate, which looks like is $70.00 in your case.
on a final note, as I mentioned earlier, I was a patient of PEAK's last year for a little while and had a wonderful experience and would highly recommened the facility.
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?

The Neighborhood Gift Exchange is a project I designed and implemented on behalf of Woman Made Gallery in Chicago. Over 180 people participated in the event, which took place at the Milwaukee Avenue Arts Festival in July 2011. Participants used on-hand art supplies and found objects to create a one of a kind gift that they exchanged for another one made by a stranger. We documented each anonymous exchange, then printed and displayed the photos on the spot so that participants could return to see who received their gift.
Thanks to Woman Made Gallery, Tammi Franke, and Markus Giolas.

This hitch lock is of good quality. It easily fits the receiver & does not have too much play so little or no rattling is perceived. It comes with two modern designed keys. My only concern is the fact that I can't work it with one hand since the key cannot be removed until the pin is bolted together. The rubber cover falls off easily; crazy glueing may be needed. Other than that, I highly recommend it!

I went to remove the pin today and the key would not turn. I heated it up with a propane torch. I soaked it with PB Blaster. I banged on it with a hammer. Nothing. The key finally turned to release the pin but lock froze up again. If you buy one of these fill both ends of the lock with axle grease before placing it onto the pin shaft. Also, every few months lock and unlock it to add more grease.

Skill Level Beginner
One of my favorite tasks in UI design is choosing typefaces. I can't tell you how many hours I spent mulling over a range of typefaces, trying to pick the best one to use in my application. Silverlight, like many tools, uses the term font to represent typeface. If you do not choose a font for your Silverlight element, you will see the default font, which on Windows is Lucida Sans Unicode and on the Macintosh is Lucida Grande. Any element in Silverlight that displays text has a Font Property. If you dig into the font- related properties, you'll find familiar-looking settings.
You can choose a typeface through the FontFamily property. You can change its size. FontWeight specifies how to enhance the thinness or fatness of the text. The two most common settings here are Normal and Bold. FontStyle allows you to access other font renderings. The most commonplace style is Italics. FontStretch lets you change the distance between letters. This setting only works on fonts that have special condensed or expanded versions. Silverlight includes a number of built-in fonts. These are installed with the Silverlight runtime.
As long as you use these fonts in your Silverlight application, you won't have to do any extra work or change any settings. There are many other fonts that are typically installed on end users' computers. These fonts aren't embedded in the Silverlight runtime, but are used if installed on the destination computer. As you can see from this list, they are mostly standard common Windows fonts. If you have a font that is not on the prior to list, you have to embed them in your Silverlight assembly. By embedding, I mean adding a copy of the font file to your application download. The first step to using this nonstandard font is to add a TTF or OTF font file to the project.
Next, you set the build action for that font to resource and then in your XAML you use the FontFamily attribute and use the special pound symbol syntax. Rather than handwrite the XAML, you can use Expression Blend to embed the font and have it generate the XAML for you. Let me add a cautionary word about licensing. Just because you have a font on your computer doesn't mean you have the right to distribute it with your application. Always verify that you have a license to embed your font. To determine if you have the rights to embed, you can use the Font Extension Utility.
This is a utility that's available for Windows XP. Here is a URL to find out more. If you're on Windows Vista or Windows 7, you can just right-click on the file and choose Properties. Let me show you how to do that. I'm looking at the Assets folder inside my Exercise Files and in here I have a font. You can choose any font you want on your computer. Just right-click on the font and choose Properties. Then go to the Details tab and look at this Font embeddability property.
I see that this font is Installable, which means I have permission to embed the font. Now I'll show you how to use Blend to add the font to your project. I'm inside a project called UsingTypefacesAndFonts. I've opened a file called EmbedFont, which has a text block containing the word Explore California. To set font properties, you go to your Property pane and scroll down to the Text section. It has standard font type properties like Bold, Italics, Underscore. You can change the font size by clicking on this combo box, and you can click on this Show advanced properties button to see more settings.
For instance, here's where you set the FontStretch property. To change the font, use this combo box. Let me scroll to the top of this list. Any font that has the blue symbol on the right side is one of the built-in Silverlight fonts. So that means I can choose Arial Black and I know that it's always going to work on the user's computer. Notice that the Embed checkbox is not available at the moment. If I choose a font that doesn't have the blue symbol, let's say I choose this one here, the Embed checkbox turns itself on, I can now click on this to embed that font in my application.
Let me show you what the XAML looks like for that. Over here in my XAML, I can see that the FontFamily is set to use a ZIP file, Fonts/Fonts.zip. That means that inside my XAP file will be a ZIP file that contains all the fonts that are embedded inside my application. I'll return back to the Designer. If you want more control over the font embedding technology, you can click on Font Manager. This shows all of the files that are inside that Fonts.zip file and you can select one and then change which portions of the font glyphs are included.
For instance, if I don't want the Uppercase versions of this font, I can unselect that checkbox and then click OK. Silverlight 5 added support for OpenType fonts. I love the OpenType specification. With this spec, type foundries can be much more expressive with their typeface. In Silverlight 5 you can tap into this power by using the Typography Attached property. On this slide I show a few of the features that are available in OpenType. For instance, ligatures, alternate capitals, different kinds of numeric enhancements like fractions and monospaced numeric fonts.
You can see a ligature example on the bottom of the screen, the letter f in the second word in the word Coffee is a ligature version of the font shown in the first version. Contextual alternates show the beautiful alternate versions of fonts available within OpenType. Notice how the letter g in eggs is rendered in each version. What a charming font! I'll return back to Expression Blend and show you a few examples of OpenType. I'm going to start by opening this file called OpenType. If you're following along with the Exercise Files, make sure that you have a copy of these fonts on your computer.
They are installed by default with Windows Vista and Windows 7. Here I'm using a normal default font and I'm setting the Fraction value to Normal, and here I'm using a normal default font and I'm setting the Fraction value to Slashed. When I used the Candara font, I see how different that looks. If I say Fraction='Normal' and Fraction='Slashed', you can definitely see a difference between the way these fractions are rendered on the screen. Let me zoom into make this a little more clear. So how do you set these properties? Use the Typography Attached property, like this.
Here's a TextBlock, then I say Typography.Fraction='Slashed'. If the open source font has a slashed version of the fraction, it will then render it on the screen. For numeric values, you can use things like the 0s with a Slash through it. That's called Slashed Zero. You can use monospaced fonts, so that your numbers line up in columns when you're using numeric calculations. There is a setting for SubScripts and SuperScripts. The way you work with these is you create a run within your text block and then you apply the subscript or the superscript to the run.
And this last one shows you that Eggs and Toast example. Here's those Contextual Alternates, again, that is switched on with this Typography.ContextualAlternates and Typography.StylisticSet1="True". This says that I want the alternates and I want you to choose one of the sets of alternate fonts. I could spend hours playing with typefaces and Expression Blend makes it easy to work with font properties.

Build Application
Before you start identifying hotspots in your native Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessor application, do the following:
Get Software Tools
You need the following tools to try these tutorial steps yourself using the
matrix sample application:
Intel® VTune™ Amplifier, including sample applications
sampling driver, set up during the VTune Amplifier installation
If, for some reason, the VTune Amplifier was not able to install the driver, you will not be able to run the analysis and will see a warning message. See online help for additional instructions how to install the driver manually.
Intel Manycore Platform Software Stack. See Release Notes for more information.
zipfile extraction utility
Intel C++ compiler installed on the host. See Release Notes for more information.
Acquire Intel VTune Amplifier
If you do not already have access to the VTune Amplifier, you can download an evaluation copy from http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-software-evaluation-center/.
Install and Set Up VTune Amplifier Sample Applications
- Copy the
matrix_vtune_amp_xe.zipfile from the
<install-dir>\samples\<locale>\C++\directory to a writable directory or share on your system. The default installation path is
C:\Program Files(x86)\IntelSWTools\VTune Amplifier XE 2016\(on certain systems, instead of
Program Files(x86)the directory name is
Program Files).
Extract the sample from the
Build the Target
Prerequisite: When using an offload or cross compiler, make sure to manually install binary utilities (Binutils) included into the Intel Xeon Phi installation zip file package. For installation instructions, please refer to the Intel Compiler documentation.
Build the target on the host with full optimizations, which is recommended for performance analysis. For native application analysis used in this tutorial, you need to copy the binary to the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor. For offload applications, no copying is required.
To communicate with the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor cards, you may use any of the following mechanisms:
- Mount an NFS share. See the NFS Mounting a Host Export topic in the Intel Manycore Platform Software Stack (MPSS) help for details.
- Use existing SSH tools.
This sample uses the PuTTy* utility and assumes that ordinary user account access has not yet been established on the coprocessor (thus the references to "root"). See the Intel MPSS installation document for details on creating user accounts on the coprocessor.
From the Start menu, select All Programs > Intel Parallel Studio XE 2015 > Command Prompt > Parallel Studio XE with Intel Compiler XE and select a mode that corresponds to your system and version of the Microsoft* Visual Studio IDE installed, for example: Intel 64 Visual Studio 2012 mode.
This command sets up the Intel compiler environment variables and opens a command prompt.
Change the directory to the location where you extracted the sample code (for this example, assume that location is C:\samples\matrix\windows_mic).
Build the sample code with the Intel C++ compiler, copy the
matrix.micfile to the card via the
pscpcommand and set the execution permissions via
For automation, run the
buildmatrix.batscript file including all these commands.
icl /Qmic -lpthread -g -O3 -debug inline-debug-info -vec-report3 -o matrix.mic ..\src\matrix.mic ..\src\matrix.c ..\src\multiply.c ..\src\util.c -D_LINUX
pscp -l root -i <path_to_private_key_file> C:\samples\matrix\windows_mic\matrix.mic <target_system>:/tmp
plink -l root -i <path_to_private_key_file> root@<target_system> chmod "+x" /tmp/matrix.mic
Edit the
buildmatrix.batfile to add a path to the private key file on your system.
matrixapplication is built as
matrix.micand copied to the /tmp directory on the selected card.
Create a Performance Baseline
Run the application on the coprocessor using
plinkand record the results to establish a performance baseline:
plink -l root -i <path_to_private_key_file> root@<target_system> /tmp/matrix.mic
In this tutorial's scenario, the command running the
matrixapplication is added to the
runmatrix.bat. Edit this
batfile to add a path to the private key file on your system.
Before you start the application, minimize the amount of other software running on your computer to get more accurate results.
Note the execution time displayed at the bottom. For the
matrix.micexecutable in the figure above, the execution time is 24.988 seconds. Use this metric as a baseline against which you will compare subsequent runs of the application.
Run the application several times, noting the execution time for each run, and use the average time. This helps to minimize skewed results due to transient system activity.
