Skip to comments.Unemployment extension unlikely; jobless file for last checks
Posted on 11/30/2010 4:44:57 PM PST by The Magical Mischief Tour
Although the deadline to file for extended unemployment insurance is officially Nov. 30, many jobless have already filed their last claim for benefits.
And since lawmakers aren't likely to extend the deadline anytime soon, many more unemployed Americans will run out of their extended federal benefits in coming weeks. About 2 million people are expected to stop receiving checks in December.
Though President Obama on Tuesday called on Congress to extend unemployment benefits, lawmakers are still fighting over the expense. Sen. Max Baucus, a Montana Democrat, introduced a bill Monday night that would extend benefits through next year at a cost of $56.4 billion. But Republicans are likely to balk at the price tag.
While they debate, state unemployment agencies are very concerned about the impending end to these extended jobless payments, which they say people depend on to cover their rent and buy food.

Stories recently about the spikes in burglaries, cops blaming it on the economy.
Now watch them really skyrocket.
Empty bellies fuel revolutions......
Ok so educate me here people go on unemployment and get a check every week. How come everyone seems to lose them on the same day?
Logic says, approx. 250,000 would lose a check every week, 99 weeks after they went on what is this co-terminus coverage?
This bill is as much about those who have jobs as those who do not.
What do people think those who have jobs will do once a safety net is pulled back in a fragile economy when millions of those with jobs are still worried about losing them?
Do people think they will spend more or spend less after seeing this?
And what are the ramifications of this for the broader economy?
After 26 weeks there are Tiers 1 through 4 followed by EB.
Tier 1= 20
Tier 2= 13
Tier 3= 13
Tier 4= 6
Whatever Tier you are on, you can finish.....but you cannot move to the next tier. So if you are not yet on Tier 1, you cannot move to it and instead will stop at 26 weeks.
Deadbeats will have to go to work. This will INCREASE the pressure to stop illegal hiring of foreigners as citizens will need those jobs. All for the good.
After 99 weeks they should go on Welfare. Anyone could get a job in 2 years.
High crime, soup lines, and radical socialist movements in our cities are about to begin.
It won't be good, spending will drop out of need and fear.
Plus now we'll have x number of millions who are unemployed, no jobs and none in sight who now have no money at all.
Do people honestly think these folks are going to magically disappear?
Hardly... they will find food, money and goods for the family.
And to make matters worse its Christmas time to boot.
Its going to get ugly
Plus.....many will simply move to welfare and food stamps. It's now a shell game. Who is better able to handle the cost? Already hard-presssed States or the Federal govt?
Your arrogance is sickening.
Where shall they go? What jobs? Where?
Its going to be hard to go back to work when there are hardly any jobs to be filled?
I've been unemployed too so you don't know what you are talking about. It's too easy now. The reason why the illegal immigration problem hasn't been solved is because American citizens have been paid to sit on their asses while Julio and Maria are doing the jobs.
99 weeks is 2 YEARS. I could learn a new trade in half that time.
Get rid of the illegals, that will solve the problem.
I was on extended unemployment the other year. I wanted a job more then a government check. I got no help from the government in finding a job etc but the did keep sending the checks. It sucked. I worked 3 part time jobs trying to get my feet in the door for full time. I finally found a full time job in a near by city and I am glad for it..
99 weeks is too long, in my opinion. Not working for that long makes people get used to being on the dole and less attractive as workers.
It is very strange that some people get 99 weeks of unemployment and others only 26. I have two acquaintances who were 99ers. Both found part time work within a few weeks of the end of their two year vacations. One said "God Bless Obama" when his UI was extended for the third time.
If 26 weeks isn't enough maybe renew Tier 1, which takes you to 46 weeks, almost a year. If, after 46 weeks you haven't found a job you need something to get you to take drastic action. Ending UI is that "something" for a lot of people, sad as that is.
After 46 weeks people should be considering moving to an area with a more vibrant economy, going for a different career, taking muliptle part time jobs, changing careers, or other fundamental different tactics than sending resumes out to 10 companies on Monster a week.
I'd like to see at least Fox interview our new reps, Boehner, in an explanation how taxcuts for ALL will help new jobs get created. Otherwise, it just looks cruel by our side, even though we all know it's not. If Fox won't put a camera in front of our side, no one will.
Give them a rifle and send them to Mordor on the Potomac, where their real enemy resides.
I've been out 4 years.
"The French Revolution"
by Nesta H. Webster
a good read
OK, so if everyone is on different weeks, how come the media is saying everyone ends together?
Everyone ends whatever Tier they are on. If you are at 25 weeks as of tonight, you get a max of 26 weeks. If you are on Tier 1, you will get a total of 46 weeks.
Forogto to add, the notion that everyone who gets unemployment gets a guaranteed 99 weeks is a specious one. They work as Tiers, and must be approved every few months, and the final 20 weeks are only for high unemployment states. Most people will never even qualify for 99 weeks.
A lot of misinformation out there about unemployment benefits, with the unemployed made to be lazy, when that is not the case 90% of the time.
I understand people want jobs in the same category that they had before....natural to want this. However it is not the reality of the world we live in now. You take a job that IS there...keep the cash flow going and drastically adjust your living to that.
The problem is people have spent beyond their means for so long that they will claim they can't take a lower end job and meet the debt load they have accumulated...which is probably right. So do what you have to do to survive and take a job.....I just think the ego gets in the way far too much. You can be selective, still apply for that perfect job while you are working the dead end job.
I've watch two men in their forties pump gas and wait tables.....both prior were in managerial positions. Both with families. They did so until they found a better job. Neither liked doing so...but it brought home the bacon....even if they were accustomed to steak.
Ok, unless you have a handicap of some kind there are several possibilities:
If I was unemployed I would seriously look at moving to one of the states with low unemployment. Of course UI is a state benefit, and most states foolishly require people to remain in the state to collect it. So this basic step will not be taken until the benefit ends, be it week 26 or 99 or whatever the 99ers think it should be extended to now? (Permanant.)
In England it became permanant. The Dole. We've never had "the dole" in America. It did a lot to ruin England, and was one of Iron Maggies reforms was to pretty much end it. A close friend who grew up in England has buddies who are still mad that Maggie cut off the dole and ended their infinite vacation.
Another point, if you move from Las Vegas to Fargo, ND the cost of living is 7.5% lower. Especially if you are at the lower rung of salary this can make a difference. At higher levels pay tends to be less too, so it's a wash.
>>Empty bellies fuel revolutions......<<
Or, as Gerald Celente puts it, "When people lose everything, and have nothing to lose, they lose it."
I think congress has been concerned for some time that with their last check, the unemployment recipients will purchase tar, feathers, pitchforks and torches.
"The most dangerous creation of any society is the man who has nothing to lose."
James Baldwin
"when that is not the case 90% of the time."
I'd say 35% of the time.
Hope they were saving their spare change...
Nonsense. I have met alot of unemployed people, and none wanted to be where they were.
Every fast food joint seems to be staffed with mexicans and various central americans. They struggle with the language, but seem to work very hard. They seem happy to have these jobs. They did not steal these jobs from anyone. Most unemployed Americans have long rejected these type of jobs. When the unemployment stops it will just be a matter of time before repeating your order 3 and 4 times at McDonalds stops as well.
Only that I'm an engineer over 55.
there are several possibilities:
1. You are financially secure and don't really need a job except to assuage your ego
Not hardly. I did have a pretty good nest egg at the beginning of this, though.
2. You live on the street and you like the smell of wet cardboard and urine.
No and no.
3. You are a prostitute.(Technically you would not be unemployed)Ignore if you are male.
No and in the Bay Area being male is not a disqualification for that, ummm, position.
4. You've been drawing benefits and live in your parents basement
No and no. My unemployment ran out long enough ago that I didn't even qualify to be a 99er. My parents don't have a basement. I do.
5. You've been "finding yourself"
No. Never been lost in that sense, have been 'a mite bewildered' on occasion (Extra points if you know the reference)
6. You've been studying "teach yourself Java" and having a hard time.
AutoCAD. Not much demand for drafting wienies these days...
7. Your wife makes a decent take.
Divorced, thank God. Haven't missed a single child support payment. (although I did have the payment reduced, and was a few weeks late on a couple of them)
Have had the occasional consulting gig, am working for a start-up (we have yet to make a single payroll in two years) and have bought reconditioned and sold a mobile home and am looking for another. It's a far cry from sitting in a cleanroom peering through a microscope, but...
Maybe it's time to get outta Kaliforny, Nully.
It's bad out there!
If I got the current fair market value for mine, instead of pocketing a check I'd owe the bank an additional $90,000.00
What? And let the eeeeeevil slime mom raise the kid in a hyperliberal household without having any moderating influence? No.
Of course it all depends on many factors. In my case I think I'd go it alone at first, live very cheaply and try to send money home every week.
In general I wouldn't say it makes sense to go from 1 job to 0 on a hunch.
Do you have any idea what the cost is of selling a home, and renting a Uhaul to pack everything across the country?
Yes, I've done it several times. It may still be your best bet. You have to be brutally honest. It would be far better for a lot of people to sell the house now, even if it's for less than they wanted, to get rid of the debt which they will be completely unable to service.
The house isn't what it used to be, especially if it's in a dying economic zone (think places that went big for Obama and are over-burdened with structural problems like California or simply crashed like Las Vegas.) Without the house you now have total mobility and the ability to live on a lot less money. I am almost done paying for my house, but if I had it to do over I'd rent. The house across the street rents for a lot less than my mortgage payment. A buddy has a nice older ranch-style and pays 1/2 what I pay in mortgage payments. Over 15 years he'd have enough money in the bank to either buy a house with cash, or live for years on those savings.
As for furniture, etc. I'd be real tempted to sell it all. Yep, it's expensive to move stuff coast to coast. You can get decent used furniture where ever you go (lots of other people doing the same thing).
In this economy, do you really believe a job even in a low unemployment state, is secure?
No. And I don't think our economy is going to recover anytime soon.
The game has changed. The old rules are not necesarily the best ones. I'm looking at everything all the time and planning escape secenarios, doing "what if" analysis and trying hard to preserve and grow my savings for when the ax falls.
Part of my experience is growing up in Detroit. When I graduated from college I made a decision to leave, based on what I perceived as the weakness of the economy. It was a good decision.
I notice you live in Pennsylvania. Do you think things will improve there? Philly, well I can't imagine wanting to stay there based on my perceptions of it, I think there are many nicer places with less crime and corruption in the USA. Pittsburg I find beautiful, but how's the economy? It strikes me as "rust belt". In between are lovely places but industry just isn't going to go back into high-cost, cold weather Union states. And therefore the service industry isn't going to be that robust either. If I owned 100 acres or more I'd stay put, but if I had a cracker-box suburban home I'd bail out and head somewhere more RED.
Socialism has always failed everywhere it's been tried. The best thing to do in the USSR was *leave*, to improve your life. The Socialist Parts of America will continue to suffer and be not-so-great to live in. If we can elect a solid Conservative Congress and President we can save the Red States, but the cake-is-baked in most of the Blues, including Blue-that-just-turned Red states like Michigan and Pennsylvania.
I am reading so many comments here in favor of never ending extended unemployment benefits, and Simply cannot believe that I am on a conservative website.
How is it that people think that borrowing the money to pay people who don't work is a good thing? Do people understand 1.3 trillion in additional debt in one year? Do people want to stimulate the economy with borrowed money? In the long run that ends in disaster because at the very least taxes must be raised to pay for it(and that is no longer enough-as well as causing a further fall in the economy). It is a transfer of wealth. It is communal system. That is the same system that resulted in the death of over half of the pilgrims.
In this case however it is suicidal for another reason. We are so far in debt that we can never escape. It is going to swallow us up. In the long run the entire nation is going to be destitute because everyone reasons that because of hard times they are entitled to a handout at everyone else's expense. Mortgage,Medical,Food,Cars,appliances, and a whole lot more. There is no end to the list.
We can keep borrowing, but eventually our ability to borrow is going to get cut off. And when it does there is going to be a sudden stop! We will end in a big bang. We will not even have Charity to help us then because we will be collectively broke. Even the Children not yet born.
The only question then is if we move into mad max or become a slave to our debtors.
Lol! Good point!
I'll be crossing my fingers and toes that things turn around soon. :)
I detest the entire unemploymnet insurance system. I would abolish it if I had my way. It assumes people are too stupid to save for a rainy day. And — it's a self fulfilling prophecy because people think the Government will take care of them.
I've paid into it for almost 40 years and never taken a cent. If I was unemployed I would feel "entitiled" to it based on my contributions. I suspect (but would need to do some math to assure myslef) that even at 99 weeks I'd be getting a lot less back than what I'd have to spend if they government hadn't confiscated it.
If we must have Unemployment insurance it should be individual — you build up your account and when you are unemployed you get it paid back out. Maybe you can get an advance which you have to pay back at some point in the future, I'm not sure.
But right now it's just another wealth-transfer program. My liberal buddy thinks "its just one of those things, like other insurnace programs, that every civilized nation should have".
My counter is that it is unconstitutional and therefore illegal, and should be abolished or re-authorized by Constitutional Ammendment.
But if you accept that people need unemployment payments surpassing their own forced savings + interest then logically you should also believe in some sort of Government Health Insurance program (though maybe not the attrocity of Obamacare, but why not "Medicare for Everyone".
My friend basically paraphrased Marx in our conversation: You know people who have more shoud pay more to take care of those who just were unlucky, or not priviliged. "From each according to his ability, to each according to their needs" is, I believe the proper formulation of Marxism in one sentence. He agreed, and agrees with that philosophy, and votes for it, and thinks unemployment is a good program.
Would they then not move?
There are 6 unemployed people for every one job opening in this country. The math is not there to fix this... once they lose this little bit of money all thats left for them to do is either starve to death or steal food etc...
I agree the debt is out of control, but unemployed in this country did not bankrupt us. You need to look elsewhere to lay that blame.
I have just one question for you...
Are you over 55?
U6, real unemployment comparable to the Great Depresssion, is close to 20%. During the Great Depresssion, it was 24%.
During the Great Depresssion they had food lines.....today we do not. Unemployment benefits are the modern day equivalent. If you take them away from millions, the least you could do is to implement soup lines.

Making snap judgements about people is getting it wrong. On multiple times I have seen you attemp to police other peoples relationships by YOUR standards not theirs, by YOUR relationship dynamics not theirs and based on YOUR experiences not theirs.
Treat people as people even if you *meet* them online, rather than just attempting to attack their behaviour. My girlfriend has jealousy issues - yes - but I specifically said I was not looking for people telling me to leave her or attack her behaviour. I wanted to understand it, I want to help her and make our relationship stronger.
Galagirl DID help. She helped me understand jealousy by explaining the link between jealousy and fear. This also put it in a huge amount of context for me with respect to her anxiety and she also provided some references to further reading.
Mark this down as one of those times when you have messed up, accept that I have seen you do it before, try to think about how it has angered me and hurt my girlfriend (and others) in the past... Basically just learn from it. Adjust your behaviour and cut out the snap reactions.
Most importantly understand that everyone is here to share and learn more about themselves. This has the potential to be a fantastic resource for the community but if you ATTACK people for their behaviours when all they are doing is trying to learn from their behaviours then you do nobody any favours.
Because of your troll like actions specifically my girlfriend actually stopped using this site. Just think about that before you start typing
No, I'm sorry. This most certainly is not one of the times I've messed up. What I said about you enabling your girlfriend's unreasonable behaviour is absolutely true and I stand by it completely. Just because you don't like how I label her behaviour, the behaviour that you outlined, it does not give you the right to reframe what I've said as an attack. The only snap judgement I made was believing that there you were interested in her best interests. But now it's very obvious your intention is to maintain your own.
Just because london pisses you off doesn't make her a troll. She's been here way too long with way too much resolution for a troll. She interacts with the world in a way that a lot of people find abrasive. She argues in a style that many people find stubborn and frustrating. But she's honest about who she is and what she believes, and she doesn't try to manipulate people with guilt trips or resort to name calling. I don't always agree with her. Actually, I rarely do. But I respect her for standing up for her opinions and not backing down just because they're unpopular.

We don't delete threads. We give people a very generous 12-hour window to edit or delete their own posts. After that, threads can be locked but usually only if they escalate into hostile arguments or violate guidelines in some way.
Personally, OP, I wouldn't worry about the info you posted. You used aliases to stay anonymous so no one will know who the thread is about. After a while, people will lose interest and stop posting. However, the name-calling and atttacking others whose opinions you dislike must stop.

But now that I know that you say, I will cancel with 60 days notice! One big catch: What they dont tell you is once they receive (wink wink) your written cancellation, you must respond to their written request (more winks) that you confirm.
The problem is you will never, ever get anything in writing from them! I know. My daughter and I (who was a member of their Lake Mary, FL) club have been fighting these people for five months on this. I even left a voicemail message for the CEO, John Simmons, to no avail.

you have to document all chat logs with the customer service people on their website, wait your 7-10 days for escalation ( paypal ) then, if they decline your case......CALL THEM by Phone.
I contacted gamevsplayer in their chat BEFORE my purchase. The chat rep asked me how many i needed, what server/ character then asked how many i needed. After that I asked how long for delivery. [continued below]....
I waited 20 min then went back to their chat, was told they were having server problems and please wait another two hours. Since then i have heard every excuse.... wait two hours.......wait several hours..........boss is on vacation with his g/f will be back in a week ( seriously lol )... please give us more time ( their favorite excuse )........

Antiques Considered - March 2, 2011
- Details
- Last Updated on Wednesday, 02 March 2011 00:00
- Published on Wednesday, 02 March 2011 00:00
- Hits: 796
A recent inquiry via e-mail concerns this neo-classical bench that the owner purchased in an antique shop many years ago. It is mahogany and has paw feet rising to winged phoenix-style capitals. The gold velvet upholstery is not original, but the finish of the mahogany frame is, retaining the patina of its age.
The bench is a fine example of the neo-classical revival that began in the eighteenth century and received new emphasis after Napoleon Bonaparte's conquest of Egypt in the beginning of the nineteenth century. Cabinetmakers, initially in Europe, and later in the United States, began producing furniture that they thought replicated that of ancient times.
That phase abated with the coming of the more elaborate Victorian Era that took its inspiration from the Middle Ages, particularly the Gothic period, but the neo-classical returned in the 1870s and 1880s, this time lasting down into the early twentieth century. This bench is a product of that era. The Aesthetic Movement of the 1870s was the bridge between the Victorian and the revived Neo-classical. In the twentieth century much of the rejuvenated interest in neo-classical furniture derived from Jacqueline Kennedy's emphasis on bringing original pieces of it back to The White House.
Neo-classical furniture of all periods remains quite popular, and commands good figures on the auction market. Although the first period pieces bring far more, those from this second phase, or revival, are not without their own following. This piece is worth $450. If it were from the stage of the early nineteenth century the figure would be many times that amount.
As to the gold velvet not being original, I suggest leaving it alone, but if the owner wishes to bring the fabric more into conformity with the style of the frame, I suggest using a striped pattern more in keeping with what would have been original to the piece.
A final word, in the photograph to the side of the bench is what appears to be the base of a fine late Victorian piano lamp, which probably would deserve an "Antiques Considered" in its own right.
Happy Antiquing!

Thu., May. 12, 2016
Here's Jared's preview of the Indiana-Central Michigan game. With the Hoosiers coming off a win, somehow I doubt this one will match the 80 reader comments on Jared's preview last week.
Read more in Football
80 reader comments is a rather impressive number. Is that a record? I did notice there were quite a few comments on his last post.
Come on! Only 78 to go… I sure wish we knew who is starting at QB. IU's offense should go off this week.
If Kellen can go, Lynch will probably kiss his ass and put him in there.
On a side note, did anyone realize Lewis is close to being a daddy? There are pictures of him and his very pregnant girl friend on Facebook right now.
I am not saying there is anything wrong with that, he looks like he is happy and excited in the pictures.
I just wonder how much of a distraction a pregnancy has been to him this season? I know when my ex-wife was pregnant, my #1 concern was her and my unborn child. If I would have been playing at the time, it would have been a major distraction for me.
I can't believe I'm saying this but I agree with Mike P about Lynch and Lewis. If I was a player, Lynch would have lost my respect by letting Lewis back on the team and starting after all the stuff he pulled.
I think this offense is better suited for Chap and sticking with one go to running back like Payton or McCrary than Lewis' improv. Imagine how much better the offense would look now had Chap started at the beginning of the season and got experience under his belt.
wow mike, spitting the venom huh?? While I agree with what you are saying about the distraction and I have heard the same thing from multiple sources…I will keep my opinions about that off the blog. I had troubles in college too that I would not want discussed on a blog but I do know where you are coming from. I for one hope that Chappel starts QB and Lewis plays wideout.
J Pat,
I have heard the rumors, and had not said anything prior to this.
There are now pictures out there, these were done by a professional studio. I am not slinging things out there, it is obvious he is not trying to hide this and is embracing becoming a father. That in itself makes me think more of him than anything he could ever accomplish on a football field.
I am just stating mine, and asking others honest opinion about the situation and how much of a distraction you think may be to him right now?
I don't feel I am spitting any venom toward Lewis. Now if you are talking about my comment about Lynch, then yes, I am toward him. His decision making regarding the starting roster this year has been horrible!
Come on guys…79 more to go…
Regarding Kellen becoming a father soon, that is very difficult to say if and how much of a distraction that has been. Only those who have been in the position of having a wife/girlfriend pregnant can say how much that weighs on the mind, and an even smaller amount can correlate that with their football career and the effects. I haven't been in that position yet, so it would be completely unfair for me to say if its been a distraction or not.
A source of mine on campus close to Lewis says the baby is due around November 22nd.
Congrats to Kellen. He is gonna be a busy dude when that kid arrives…
I would like to see Ben continue to start. Kellen make me a nervous wreck.
I can tell you this, when I was becoming a daddy, I was working full time and coaching part time. My dedication to coaching suffered. I didn't put in the 3 and 4 hours after practice watching films and the other stuff that goes on behind the scenes.
I became focused on my family, after I became a father I stepped away from coaching all together for a couple years. Have been back and forth since.
Football is great, and has been very good to me, but nothing is as great as being a father.
I wish Kellen nothing but the best, and hope that he figures out just how to handle all the added pressure of life.
Mike, I agree that is most likely a huge distraction mentally during the day and maybe in practice sometimes. I have coached football and played at a somewhat high level and when it is gametime, all of the personal crap goes out the window..it is gametime. I do not think that the baby is what is affecting his poor play on the field. The coaching staff and what has gone on has given him heck and the injuries have not helped either. Just my opinion though. With that said, I think Chap gives IU the best chance to win this weekend.
Jared, good thoughts. Being the father of a 4 year old and an almost 3 year old, it is huge. My wife and I have a true partnership and respect for one another so it makes it easier, sometimes anyway. We had both of our children during our masters programs, crazy! I will say that I have not coached since shortly after having kids.
J Pat,
I agree, when it is game time, personal stuff does go out the window, but you should know as well as anyone (having coached and played) that you play the way you prepare.
If you are distracted in your preparation, you are distracted in your game plan.
I agree, Chappell is who we need running the offense, and should have from day 1.
I can agree with that to a certain extent but he is a good enough athlete to improvise with his feet. Also, if he is embracing it like you say I would think it has not been a distraction in prep for the games.
I was joking about the "venom" comment because you said A$$. Blogs are tough that way, but I was joking.
Mike, being objective, do you really feel Chap should have started from day 1? Also, any word on Finch? I was listening to Dakich and Fish on the radio and they were talking subs at the safety spot and did not even mention Finch. I read nothing on his injury anywhere.
I can tell you nothing on Finch, other than he needs to be at FS instead of SS and allowed to play his game.
Being objective, yes I think Chappell should have been the starter. With the modifications done to this offense, and that Ben spent the spring and first 2 weeks of actual practice with the number 1's while Lewis tried to work out the rust with the 2's, it is a no brainer who should have got the job.
You can't tell me that Lewis knew how to run this offense as efficient as Chappell, when Lewis had 4 weeks as compared to 4+ months by Chappell.
I am sure Lewis could not have run it as efficently as Chap but Lewis should have started anyway in my opinion. He earned it last year!!! I watched a couple of practices this summer and I felt Lewis gave IU the best opportunity to win from the get go. Plus, Lewis was and I say WAS the one returning stud and he was our QB. He accepted responsiblity for his actions and busted his tail to get back into it. You do not lose your starting job for one screw up or to injury unless the guy playing for you is a stud, which Chap is not. Chaps reads are quicker now and his decision making is better so I think at this point in the season he should start. If I am Lynch, I start Chap and give him a short leash but it will most likely be the opposite with Lewis starting.
I disagree. Lewis is our best threat. Hopefully his head is clear, and he is 100% healthy. When he is, I really think he gives us the best chance to win. Chappell got one win, and the def really won the game. Lets see what lynch does with his options here. This is a game that we should win without a doubt.
StartChappell and Payton. Keep Lewis in reserve and find a way to work Thigpen in, and get him the ball in the open field. Everytime we run the ball up the middle for -3, an assistant coach should have to leave the sidelines!!!
Go Hoosiers!
Now that was funny Kevin!
J Pat,
I could care less what a player done for us last year. Last years stats don't when football games. Honestly, I don't care what you done last week. Once that game is in the books, I move forward. If you are doing anything that is hurting my team, you can sit your behind on the bench. If you get hurt or suspended and your replacement is doing as good or better than you were, you might be out of a job.
Honestly, if I was coaching, Lewis might not be in uniform this year for his off season antics. If he wanted to be part of my team, he could prove it and spend a year running the scout team.
If he worked that hard to get back on the team, then he would understand the reason why I would have started Chappell in the first 2 games. Of course Chappell would be on a short leash, just like Lewis would be.
I'm easier on my kids now, cause they are younger, but I am a hard ass to play for. Ask my son.
Mike, I have read everything you have written for a long time and I wonder just how objective you are with the QB position at IU because of your relationship with Chappell. You are sour on Lewis and that is your opinion so that is cool. Sorry and no disrespect at all, just my take. I am the guy that was reprimanded for kicking kids off of the team that had discipilne problems when I coached. However, these were multiple problems. If coaches do things the way you say, almost NO kid would be treated fairly because in this life…CRAP happens! So Chap does bad this week and then we start Kellen and then Chap and then Kellen. The method you speak of would not work at any position because nobody would ever find a rhythm and too many GOOD kids would be left behind, good athletes…good hearted kids. I agreed with the Sampson hire because it was a second chance, a chance for him to start over. It did not turn out well but you never know. I applaud you for being hard, we need more coaches like you but we have to be realistic at the same time. We can agree to disagree! GO HOOSIERS!!!
Will the real Mike P. please stand up?? I think someone is stealing his name because Mike has never written a post so poorly.
I agree, that isnt the real Mike P. he usually has his email address in there as well. im sure jared and the tech guys can determine the real one with the Ip in the posting.
Sorry, that was me, but I didn't express what I meant. I am on a strong pain killer for a back injury, and apparently what sounds good on them is pretty idiotic when they have worn off.
Let me explain my thinking. Kellen was a stud (as J Pat puts it) last season. In the off season he made some mistakes, those mistakes made him miss all of spring practice and summer workouts. During spring practice, Chappell stepped in and started running a new style of the offense. Kellen rejoined the team when camp officialy started a month prior to the opening game.
If I was coaching, he would not have started the first couple games. What he did last year no longer matters. I am looking at my team for this year, and as you said, building the rythem you spoke about. That is something that had went on since the spring with a different QB than Lewis.
If Chappell bombed in either of the first 2 game, Lewis would be put back in, and possibly elevated back to his starting spot, depending on his level of play. However, if his play was hurting us, I would pull him and try something different, not just leave him in there and let him keep spiraling down.
Say I replaced him with Evans, and the team fought back and won the game. That would be great. Though come Monday, what happened in that game is forgot. My starter the prior game would still be my starter. If Evans played great, he would see more time with the two's.
Come game time on Saturday, it would be the same thing. If the starter is off, making bad choices, or turning the ball over and making the defense have to work extra hard, then I am looking at someone different on the side line.
If 2 weeks in a row I had to make a change, and the change proved to be a better option, then come Monday we would have an open spot for starter at QB.
Whoever was named starter would hold that position, but as I said, I am not going to leave him in there to crash and burn if that is what is happening.
I've done that before, it is amazing how it works. You find out a lot about your "stud" at that point. He will either step up and prove he deserves to be the starter, or he will break under the pressure and you move forward with your program.
To sum it up, starting Lewis was the wrong choice, regardless of who was taking the snaps. As I feel it is now. Lewis should play, but not as a QB, unless it is using him like we did Evans last week.
Hope that makes more sense.
good to know its you. btw, what did Kellen do? any post on peegs gets deleted so who knows what he really did??? this is why I love this forum, its not all censored like peegs, and its free!

The purpose of this post is to define the terms aggregation and distribution and to introduce you to the tools and services I recommend so that you set out on the right publishing path.
Indie authors can upload ebooks to each online ebook retailer directly, but we might instead choose to distribute them using an ebook aggregator like Smashwords, IngramSpark, or BookBaby. Likewise, we can upload our print book to Amazon via CreateSpace directly but distribute to other online print book retailers and brick-and-mortar bookstores via a distribution service like IngramSpark.
Yeah boy, that is a lot of geeky publishing terms! So let's wind it down and go through it in slo mo…
An online ebook retailer is an online store that sells ebooks. The major online ebook retailers are Amazon (which enjoys the majority of the market), Kobo (with its wide international reach), Barnes & Noble and Apple. There are many, many others. You can rather tediously sign up for each of their publishing programs, type in
your automatic payment information, and upload your ebook to each of these stores separately, and many authors do. But many authors also find that using an ebook aggregator is much more efficient, giving us more time to do what we love to do, which is to write.
When you understand the difference between the terms aggregation and distribution, you'll be more equipped to make good decisions about with whom to spend your publishing dollars.
An ebook aggregator distributes and sells your book to a wide range of online retailers. Aggregators collect a percentage and pay you at intervals. Many authors feel that the small percentage (on average, 15%), is fair trade for the wide distribution plus centralized accounting and payment services.
A book distributor sells your print book (POD/print on-demand in most cases) to the online booksellers and even brick-and-mortar bookstores. IngramSpark is currently the only reliable distribution channel that indie authors can use to reach brick-and-mortar stores. (Even though Amazon CreateSpace books are listed in the ipage database that bookstores see, they generally will not order books from Amazon, for obvious reasons.)
Some of the aggregators/distributors also provide ebook formatting and other services. Here's a summary of the companies I most often recommend.
Smashwords is a wonderful ebook aggregator that provides ebook distribution just about everywhere except Amazon Kindle. They offer lots of perks and features, including library distribution, pre-orders, author "self" interviews, gifting and discount coupons. Format your book according to their style guide (or use one of Joel Friedlander's Book Design Templates in Word for under $60), and submit it to their Premium Catalog via the Smashwords "meatgrinder."
Smashwords also allows you to upload an EPUB file, via Smashwords Direct, created with a tool such as PressBooks, Draft, Scrivener (for Mac and Windows), Folium Book Studio, or any ebook formatting service. (Sign up for my indie author newsletter and get a free list and description of these tools and more.)
If you can't manage to format your Word file according to the Smashwords Style Guide, or you don't want to buy a book template, you can hire someone to do it for you. A list is available from Smashwords at "Mark's List."
The maximum file size for Smashwords is 10MB so it's not a viable option for books with a lot of images. So if your have a "big" ebook, look to one of the following aggregators, instead.
IngramSpark is owned by Ingram (the largest book distribution company in the world), so they have very wide reach. Most of the other aggregators "hook in" to Ingram's distribution service, so you don't have to use Spark to get Ingram distribution. However, Spark is the only service that offers both ebook and print book distribution in a single dashboard. (Note that IngramSpark replaces their Lightning Source publishing service, so unless you're a legacy user of Lightning Source you'll sign up with IngramSpark.)
Centralizing your activities in one place is a great reason to use IngramSpark, though they don't have book creation tools… yet. Again, you can use Joel Friedlander's Book Design Templates or another tool or service to create them. Stay tuned… I'll let you know when they have it.
BookBaby will distribute your ebooks to the online retailers and they can create your ebook for you – including Fixed Format EPUBs for complex and image-heavy books for a very reasonable fee.
Finally, Blurb has emerged as the place for full-color ebook and print book authors with their great tools for creating Fixed Format EPUBs along with print versions of your book. Their BookWright tool does this concurrently and I highly recommend it. Blurb recently added distribution to Amazon and I wouldn't be surprised to see distribution via the Ingram network before the end of 2014.
All of these vendors, except IngramSpark, have their own storefront where you can sell your book and receive 85% royalty.
Amazon KDP and CreateSpace are two separate online book retailers – KDP for ebook and CreateSpace for print – with separate dashboards and payment systems.
Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) is not an aggregator, it is Amazon's tool for self-publishers to upload ebooks in Kindle format for sale in the Amazon store.
You don't have to use KDP, all the above aggregators, with the exception of Smashwords, aggregates to KDP. (Once you've formetted your book for Smashwords though, you're already 90% there. Just make appropriate changes in the front matter and upload it to KDP yourself.)
Amazon CreateSpace is an online print on-demand (POD) book creation tool and their free Expanded Distribution program claims to make your book available to online retailers and brick-and-mortar bookstores.
That's kind of a stretch, because CreateSpace does not offer the discounts and returns program that brick-and-mortar bookstores insist upon. Self-publishers must use IngramSpark for that job. (Do remember that you must actually market to the booksellers.)
Therefore (and this is a big therefore!), I advise that you opt-out of Amazon CreateSpace's Expanded Distribution program (which is free, but don't be tempted) and instead use IngramSpark to distribute your PDF-formatted print-on-demand book everywhere else. That way your book will always show "in stock" in Amazon and you get Ingram's great distribution everywhere else. Including brick-and-mortar stores.
Not to confuse you, but more options are available. You may find reasons to combine services. Many authors end up with something that looks like this:
1) IngramSpark for all POD except Amazon,
2) CreateSpace for POD distribution to Amazon.com, and
3) an ebook aggregator like Smashwords, IngramSpark, or BookBaby to reach the online ebook resellers.
Full color book authors will want to use Blurb or IngramSpark for their POD or offset print distribution or short run printing.
Right. So many combinations are available it can make your head spin. What's my best recommendation? I hate to say it, but it depends.
My aim is to clarify, but if you're still confused by the end of this piece, please contact me for a free 15 minute consultation.
I've written a lot about this in my book, The Self-Publishing Boot Camp Guide for Authors, but I'll summarize my best recommendation here. Most of you will be happy with one of the above services to create and distribute your ebooks. But make sure that for the print book, you exclude Amazon from your print book distribution agreement, so that you can upload it CreateSpace on your own.
Why? Because the Amazon store is the world's largest bookseller and it's likely that 90% of your POD book sales will happen there. Unfortunately, if you don't use CreateSpace, your book may be listed as out of stock.
This has been seen as unfair business practice by some and, by others, an understandable delay in receiving availability reports from outside distributors. Whatever the reason, it happens, and so you will benefit from a one-on-one relationship with the Amazon.com store via CreateSpace.
A NOTE ABOUT ISBNs
To make myself even clearer on this, owning your own ISBNs and having direct access to MyIdentifiers.com makes a huge difference in your business as an indie author. Authors who are publishers, aka author-entrepreners, should always retain full control and this is the only way to do it.
When you buy ISBNs you'll get a special offer for self-publishing packages that include special discounts on ebook formatting and distribution. Most authors only need the "prime" package for $395.
I love Joel Friedlander's interior and cover Book Design Templates for those of you who work with Word. But Scrivener – for Mac and Windows – is my favorite writing and ebook/print book formatting tool (it exports to all formats automagically).
I also highly recommend PressBooks, Draft, LeanPub and a bunch of other tools on the desktop and in the cloud.
For more information on those tools and others, please indie author newsletter sign up to get my list of trusted tools and much more, such as other places to sell your book and build your author platform.
There you have it: A short-and-sweet introduction to book aggregation and distribution. Of course I've left out a lot of other aggregators and distributors, but these are the ones I most highly recommend.
What do you think? Would you change any of my definitions? Do you have direct experience with any of these companies? I'd love to hear about it. Would you recommend another company besides these five? Please let me know in the comments below. I'd really appreciate it!

I am learning to love myself, but sometimes it's not enough. All the love I can give myself can't cancel out the hate that people have for fat bodies. If we want to be real about changing the way that beauty is portrayed and what bodies are considered good, then everyone has to do the heavy lifting to normalize marginalized bodies together.
I soon realized that when I started my search for the perfect dress, there was no inspiration, no larger models modeling gorgeous dresses and, even more disappointing, most stores don't even carry larges sizes. Everyone wants to feel beautiful -- regardless of their size or shape. And today, unfortunately I didn't.
I remember the day my agent told me to lose 2 inches off my hips and that my thighs were getting too big. She suggested that I try yoga to tone down. I was devastated. She didn't see how hard I was trying to be thin. I was dieting and hardly eating just to keep my stick-thin frame. It was then that I decided to give up on modeling because I was ruining my body.
Whenever I dropped weight it was stunning how people suddenly started speaking with me again at family functions and started acknowledging my existence. Of course, whilst they pressured me to devour the high fat food they had prepared. Instead of boosting my confidence, it reminded me that people can be fickle jerks.

|Proposed General Approach to Fire-Safety Scenarios
|May 29, 2012
|A systematic approach to the identification of fire-safety scenarios for analysis is desirable in order to identify important scenarios and to help ensure a consistent approach for different analysts. The number of possible fire-safety scenarios in any built environment can be very large and it is not possible to quantify them all. This large set of possibilities needs to be reduced to a manageable set of fire-safety scenarios that are amenable to analysis. A general approach to selecting fire-safety scenarios is therefore proposed. These scenarios address key aspects of fire-safety of fire, egress and structural analysis. The work summarised in this report was based on discussions stemming from a proposed draft of ISO/WD 29761 Fire safety engineering ‹ Selection of design occupant behavioural scenarios and design behaviours, as was being developed within the Working Group 11 of ISO/TC92/SC4 during the Working Group meetings of 2010 and early 2011.
