Silent Tears: A Journey of Hope in a Chinese Orphanage
AmazonEncore, 2010 - Biography & Autobiography - 336 pages
When her family relocated to rural China in 2003, Kay Bratt was thrust into a new world, one where boys were considered more valuable than girls and poverty and the one-child policy had created an epidemic of abandoned infants. As a volunteer at a local orphanage, Bratt witnessed conditions that were unfathomable to a middle-class mother of two from South Carolina. Based on Bratt s diary of her four years at the orphanage, Silent Tears offers a searing account of young lives rendered disposable. In the face of an implacable system, Bratt found ways to work within (and around) the rules to make a better future for the children, whom she came to love. The book offers no easy answers. While often painful in its clear-sightedness, Silent Tears balances the sadness and struggles of life in the orphanage with moments of joy, optimism, faith, and victory. It is the story of hundreds of children and of one woman who never planned on becoming a hero but became one anyway."

There are those who will dismiss love as a naïve and romantic construct of our culture. Others will wax poetic and tell you that "love is all,""love is the bird call and the glint in a young girl's eyes on a summer night." Some will be dogmatic and tell you emphatically that "God is Love." And some, according to their own experience, will tell us, "Love is a strong emotional attachment to another…"etc. In some cases you will find that people have never thought of questioning love, much less defining it, and object violently even to the suggestion that they think about it. To them love is not to be pondered, it is simply to be experienced. It is true to some degree all of these statements are correct, but to assume that any one is best or all there is to love, is rather simple. So each man lives love in his limited fashion and does not seem to relate the resultant confusion and loneliness to this lack of knowledge about love.

In discussing love, it would be well to consider the following premises;One cannot give what he does not possess. Too give love you must possess love.One cannot teach what he does not understand. To teach love, you must comprehend love.One cannot know what he does not study. To study love, you must live in love.One cannot appreciate what he does not recognize. To recognize love you must be receptive to love. One cannot have doubt about that which he wishes to trust. To trust love you must be convinced of love.One cannot admit what he does not yield to. To yield to love you must be vulnerable to love.One cannot live what he does not dedicate himself to. To dedicate yourself to love you must be forever growing in love.
Source: Love : What Life Is All About, Pages: 36
Man has not yet learned to work for the joy of work, learn for the sake of growth, create for the expression and the exaltation in the act, or to love simply for the pleasure of loving: he still requires a reward. Until a man learns to do these things, hope will have to be his basic motivating force. In work, he'll require more wages and better titles; in knowledge, he'll require degrees and diplomas; in creativity, he'll require recognition; in love, he'll require assurance. Until he appreciates that each of these are their own reward, he'll need hope as his crutch. There is nothing wrong with hope; it is simply the second best thing. For love goes beyond hope. Hope is a beginning. Love is forever.
Source: Love : What Life Is All About, Pages: 124
Joy is always an integral part of loving. There is joy in every act of life, no matter how menial or repetitive. To work in love is to work in joy. To live in love is to live in joy... Why not choose joy?... Why not live in joy?

Love and the self are one and the discovery of either is the realization of both.

He must understand that if he is the world's finest plum and someone he loves does not like plums, he has the choice of becoming a banana. But he must be warned that if he chooses to become a banana, he will be a second rate banana. But he can always be the best plum.
Source: Love : What Life Is All About, Pages: 143
Contributed by: Jessica
He must also know evil, hate and bigotry as real phenomena, but he must see love as the greater force. He must not doubt this even for a moment or he is lost. His only salvation is to dedicate himself to love, in the same fashion as Gandhi did to militant nonviolence, as Socrates to truth, as Jesus did to love and as More did to integrity. Only then will he have the strength to combat the forces of doubt, confusion and contradiction. He can depend upon no on or no thing for reinforcement and assurance but himself.
Source: Love : What Life Is All About, Pages: 141
Loving yourself involves the discovery of the true wonder of you; not only the present you, but the many possibilities of you. It involves the continual realization that you are unique, like no other person in the world, that life is, or should be, the discovery, the development and the sharing of this uniqueness.
Source: Love : What Life Is All About, Pages: 99
Knowing that one is always capable of change, the second step lies in making the decision to change. Change does not occur by merely willing it anymore than behavior changes simply through insight.

Fantastic and educational!,
Ce commentaire fait référence ŕ cette édition : Scarface: The Ultimate Guide (English Edition) (Format Kindle)
The definitive book on "Scarface" is here. This is essential reading for fans of the movie (the 1980s one). There is no audio commentary for "Scarface," so I was excited to read this. The book discusses the origins of the movie and its development history -- with essays, trivia, and lots of fascinating factoids. I had no idea most of "Scarface" was Sidney Lumet's idea. The producers wanted to do a 1930s period piece before he thought to set it in Miami. This was not Oliver Stone's idea, but Stone's script borrows heavily from the original movie -- including a lot of the dialogue.
This book debunks a lot of myths about "Scarface" and gets to the truth behind `Making Of' documentaries and all the false rumors (like Pacino ad-libbed the word `yeyo') put out on the web by the likes of IMDB. The book goes through a lengthy analysis of the movie, scene by scene. I thought I knew a lot about "Scarface" until I read this book. Give it a read if you like film analysis and you like "Scarface"!

If you are going to throw money away, throw it my way. I made the mistake of buying an ACER Aspire 722 Netbook and within 3-4 months, the case split and a piece fell out. Not only that but the keys stick, its slow even with 2 gb RAM and the touch pad has a mind of its own. Some programs I get a flickering line that doesnt go away.ACER will not back their warranty.
When I called customer service, I got some east Indain guy that does his best to void your warranty starting with the case is not covered under warranty. Then he wants you to mail in your computer (at your expense) while they evaluate it for CID (customer induced damage) to void your warranty, but the excuses are endless.
I took it to a local repair shop and they said they would have to remove the screen and take the case apart which would void my warranty and recommended I contact ACER, which I did. [continued below]....
They will make it impossible for you to have them honor their warranty. They will make you jump thru every hoop imaginable to not honor their product. My computer guys also said that ACER was their #1 for repairs.Another friend of mine had endless problems with her ACER also.
Searching for ACER complaints, at this site 94% rated it horrible out of 418 reviews.
This complaint, ACER refused delivery for service
This Better Business Bureau in Temple Texas had 963 complaints of which 136 were complaints of warranty and 80 about ser vice. And this only one of thousands of BBBs.
This site is a PERFECT example of the BS you will get trying to get your ACER warranty/service
This websites survey rated ACER as the WORST
http://ctwatchdog.com/finance/2012-computer-reliability-report-lenovo-most-reliable-acer-least-reliable-apple-declinedSo my friends, if you are going to throw your money away, dont throw it at ACER. Now

Hi can anybody help please
I created a WorPress site locally and now can not access it. I therefore can not create a mysqldump to send to the hosting company and have decided to rebuild it but not locally, this time live on the internet where it will be hosted.
The problem is that the text content that I put together on the "About Us" and "Services" pages took a lot of time to get just right. Is it possible using Dreamweaver (or other) to access the text to copy?
Hope that you can help. Thank you in advance.

Complaint Review: FIA CARD SERVICES

Corporate Advocacy Program™
paying for a house, expenses, and various insurances are nearly exceeding my income. So when needed, I have been using a 5.9% APR credit card. This card has a low limit, and I did not realize when I had exceeded it until it was declined at a restaurant. Fortunately, I have another card which has a very high limit, and which I keep around for situations where my other card doesn't work for whatever reason.
I called FIA Card Services and found out the limit had been exceeded on the 5.9% card, so I asked representative (ID # 90VTATLU) to
simply reallocate funds from the high limit card to the lower limit one. She did so easily, however she informed me that because I had gone overlimit, my new APR was somewhere around 22%. The representative then said that because I had been a customer for 5 years and had never missed a payment, that she would refund the charge and reset the APR.
Fast forward to today, where I see I'm nearing the limit again and ask to reallocate credit from the high limit card to the lower one. The representative does this for me, then mentions that the APR for the lower limit card is still 22%. After numerous transfers (including one person picking up, saying "Hello?" and not introducing themselves, then immediately hanging up), I was put in touch with Mark Gillespie, a "senior account specialist" or some such nonsense.
Mark Gillespie of FIA Card Services was able to locate a note about the conversation I had had where the issue was supposed to have been resolved, but of course the representative had never fixed the APR or reversed the charge, nor had she notated that she had agreed to do so. Mark Gillespie then told me that he would be unable to produce a recording of the conversation that had taken place, so it was now my word against representative # 90VTATLU.
I was very upset at this point. Mark Gillespie of FIA Card Services said that the only solution was to run a report and see if he
could lower my APR using that information. I told Mark numerous times that I did not want to have a report run, but he stated that he could not assist me unless he did so. At NO point did Mark Gillespie state that there could be any negative consequences of running his report, nor did he state that he would be running a credit inquiry on me.
After running the report, Mark Gillespie declared that because the report showed I had high outstanding debt, he was going to cut all of my FIA Card Services credit limits down to the balance owed, with no breathing room. And just like that, he wiped out an additional $25,000 of credit that I had on my secondary card (and wiped out the $10,000 I had just reallocated to the lower limit card). I am now just a few dollars beneath the limit for these cards, and I cannot afford to pay my bills and make payments on a 22% APR card while supporting two people. My hope was that with my girlfriend's job returning in the fall, my financial burden was going to be eased and I could pay everything down. Now, Mark Gillespie's actions may well ruin my life and my girlfriend's life.
This is no way to treat a consumer who has been loyal for five years. FIA Card Services should be ashamed of itself for these
underhanded tactics, willfully screwing consumers during the worst recession of our lives. I was blatantly lied to by FIA Card Services'
Representative ID# 90VTATLU, and FIA Card Services' Mark Gillespie lied to me about the need to run a report, omitted the fact that he would be running an official credit report, and never mentioned any potential consequences of the report. I did not authorize this, and I am now deeply personally affected by his malicious actions. Why am I being made to suffer because one of FIA Card Services' employees lied to me about lowering my APR? And when trying to get the problem solved, why am I then further punished by having my credit limits reduced to the balance owed?
I pray to anyone who can help me in this situation to please right this by contacting the appropriate people at FIA Card Services, who
desperately need to retrain their employees on disclosure and customer service. If anyone can help me, please, I am a hard-working man trying to start a family. Let FIA Card Services know they have some bad apples that need removed, and that a loyal customer is being punished for no reason.

Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit
What it is: A best-selling compact that includes Bobbi's yellow-based Creamy Concealer to instantly camouflage under eye darkness, and pressed powder to set concealer for long-lasting wear.
Who it's for: Anyone who wants to conceal under eye circles to instantly look fresher and more well-rested.
Why it's different: The key to the concealer's easy application and flawless coverage is in its creamy texture made possible by skin-smoothing emollients and silica (the secret behind the formula's soft-focus effect). The best part? It's waterproof, sweat- and humidity-resistant. Plus, the compact's pressed powder helps it stay in place without settling into lines.
Creamy Concealer .05 oz/1.4g; Sheer Pressed Powder .06oz/1.7g
- Using a Concealer Brush (sold separately), apply Creamy Concealer as close as possible to the lash line, and also on the innermost corner of the eye. Gently blend with your fingers.
- For crease-free, long-lasting wear, apply Pressed Powder over Concealer using an Eye Blender Brush (sold separately).

Many people believe that the winter months are not conducive to growing vegetables. This incorrect notion is not only, but is preventing people from experiencing the wonderfully nutritious vegetables that are grown during these colder months. Artichokes are a great source of Vitamin C, and they also help to aid in digestion. It is important to remove the thorns before consuming this vegetable. Artichokes go great on salads, sandwiches, and almost everything else. They add a yummy, sweet and... Read More

Scar Removal
Scar Removal WORTH IT RATING* DETAILS
in the last 24 months
in the last 12 months
over all time
While scars can never be completed erased, scar removal procedures are meant to minimize their appearance. There are many non-surgical methods used for scar removal, including injectable fillers to fill concave scars, light therapy and lasers, and dermabrasion and chemical peels. For deeper scarring, surgery is needed to remove the old scar. The incision may be closed with either skin grafts or tissue substitutes. In some cases, a tissue expander will be placed below the surface of the scar and slowly filled with a sterile solution. Once the skin has sufficiently been stretched, the expander and scar are removed. The remaining skin is then stretched to cover the open area.

The only problem I have is I tried to modify wordpress with a plugin to run 2 different themes (1 as the default, and the other is using a plugin that allows all users to view the other template as a preview with the prefix ?theme=Mobile)
So what is the problem? Well while I got all the posts and page links to go to my-example-blog.com/post1389.htm?theme=Mobile and everything works fine for that I have just two problems I can't modify because it's too complex, and it's next_post_link and previous_post_link.
So how can I modify to slip a ?theme=Mobile into both next_post_link and previous_post_link.
I also tried to look into the link template and did everything I could to add a ?theme=Mobile to the link but all has failed.

I called Roadside Assistance and they had it towed to O'Rielly Chevrolet since they were the only shop open on Saturday. The service person at O'Rielly Chevrolet called us at 12:30pm to let us know that the brake fluid was contaminated. He advised up to call the service department at Watson Chevrolet on Monday July 3rd since they were the last ones to work on the brakes.
I started making calls at 7:15am that Monday morning and after more than 15 phone calls, 9 hours of waiting, and talking to 7 different people the Service Manager, Ed Hernandez, finally agreed to let O'Rielly Chevrolet look at my Tahoe to try and determine a cause and a solution. O'Rielly Chevrolet determined that pretty much the whole brake system needed to be replaced which would cost 3,000.00 dollars.
Once Ed Hernandez found that out he said that Watson Chevrolet was not responsible for the damage. Watson's service department was the last and only service department to work on my Tahoe. I tried talking with Ed Hernandez and he got verbally abusive and rude with me. When I called back to talk to the Owner of Watson Chevrolet I was given to Ed Hernandez again who then told me the buck stops here!.
I just don't think I should be financially responsible for something that I had no part in. Here it is July 11th and I still do not have my Tahoe nor do I have a rental car due to the fact that Ed Hernandez has refused to accept responsibility, thus a rental will not be covered. The Tahoe is our only car for my family of six, and we have been home bound since June 30th.

Researchers Wrestle with When to Make...
BioCryst Pharmaceuticals and privately held Presidio Pharmaceuticals mutually terminated the merger agreement entered into on October 17, 2012. Although the original rationale for the merger reportedly had merit, the parties determined that terminating the merger was in the best interest of both companies and their respective shareholders at this time.
Had the merger gone through, the combined company would have had lead programs in infectious and orphan disease indications, including HCV and hereditary angioedema, anchored by three oral, pan-genotypic antivirals suitable for development either in combination with each other or with other direct-acting antivirals to treat patients with HCV infection. The merger was an all-stock deal valued at approximately $101 million.

what are the risk's for me as a seller and someone want's my paypal account to make the transaction for the item listed? I guess the best way to put this is how can i get burned by this? The item i'm seeling is worth quite a bit of money.....
on 01-07-2013 04:57 PM
Anything and everything you are selling needs to be done through ebay. There is NO NEED to give out your email for any reason.
ALL messages, any purchase, EVERYTHING is done through ebay. If they are requesting ANYTHING be done outside of that, then do NOT sell your item. These scammers are around every corner, ESPECIALLY with high ticket items.
Anything done outside of ebay, you will lose any and all ebay seller protection...........
You list the item, they buy the item THROUGH ebay!!!!!!!!
on 01-07-2013 05:02 PM
Buyers just need to click on the Pay Now button to pay for their purchase. They have no need for any of your personal information whatsoever.
Tell buyer that. If buyer still insists on getting additional information ... you can be pretty sure they are a scammer.
on 01-07-2013 04:54 PM
The buyer does not need your PayPal email.
They can easily pay from the auction page, or the notice eBay sent them.
Scammers frequently ask for PayPal email addys, so they can send a PHONY "message from PayPal" stating the item was paid, and giving the seller instructions to ship.
1. ALWAYS wait for payment in your PAyPAl account.
2. Ship ONLY to the address provided by PayPal.
on 01-07-2013 05:37 PM
You have received great advice. Just want to add that as a very low feedback seller selling expensive items, you are a scammer magnet. Every scammer from here to Nigeria will be trying to take advantage of you. Only reason someone would need your PayPal e-mail is to send a fake message stating your PayPal has been paid and it is okay to ship the item. Please be careful and only ship when you log in to your PayPal account and it says you have been paid and it is okay to ship.
Good Luck!!
on 01-07-2013 05:25 PM
Legitimate buyers do not need your PayPal address.
They can pay you from the listing or the end of auction notice.
Scammers, however, do need your PayPal address so that they can send you fake eBay/PayPal emails urging you to ship before you realize that you have not been paid..
Never ever ship an item unless you have checked your PayPal account to see if the money is there.. And you need to ship to the PayPal address, when it says "OK to ship"there.

"We need more people like you, good citizens, to give information leading to arrests of folks guilty of committing arson," Ralph Hudgens said as he gave Etterlee a large facsimile check in front of the Hephzibah Fire Department.
Etterlee said his house was broken into 2 1/2 years ago, and he was fed up with the rising crime in his neighborhood. He said he does everything he can to make people aware of criminal activity and reports any suspicious happenings to authorities. He also talks to his neighbors and gives them information on what's going on and how to contact authorities.
"It would be better for the criminals to be caught and dealt with by the law, than if I catch 'em," Etterlee said. "And that's all I need to say on that."
He said he wasn't even aware of a reward when he went to the local fire and police departments.
"I didn't do it for the money or the praise," Etterlee said. "I did it to cut the crime down in my neighborhood, and that's it."

ATLANTIC CITY - Citing the sharp decline in the casino industry's fortunes, the Tax Court of New Jersey on Monday slashed the tax liability of the Shore resort's biggest taxpayer, the Borgata Hotel & Casino.
The ruling, reducing the property's assessment by 61 percent in each of two years, 2009 and 2010, caused dismay among city officials over the lost revenue. They vowed to appeal.
If upheld, the blow to the city may be the biggest of many, tax experts said. Some similar but lesser tax disputes already have been resolved. But, they said, other casinos that are still in tax court likely will seek more favorable settlements.

Standing along the ropes at the Honda Classic Pro-Am in early March, firefighter Robert McCarry was hard to miss.
McCarry's elaborate leg tattoo of a shapely female firefighter — one of several tats visible on the 36-year-old — stood out. Yet, McCarry's look also fit in.
The reason was the man inside the ropes — trend-setting 27-year-old Rickie Fowler.
Fowler's bold fashion statements, Southern California cool and a couple of tattoos of his own have drawn a new demographic to a sport once rooted in country clubs and cardigans.
"It's funny, I see guys with tats and big beards out here now," McCarry said. "It's made it a little more...

Ripoff Report's discussions with Priority One Clearing Service have uncovered an ongoing commitment by the company to total client satisfaction.

She has taken this experience and parlayed it into what she considers to be a state of the art customer service center. She also stated "She personally takes incoming subscriber calls weekly so she can better understand the challenges of her customer service professionals and the subscriber." As a successful businesswoman, Dawn Daugherty knows it is critical to listen to the subscribers first hand order to better prepare her staff for resolutions.

The information provided in this report below is based on comments made by Justin Rosen during an on-site inspection held by a third party verification company with no biases toward Priority One Clearing Services, Inc.
Priority One Clearing Services, Inc. is a company specializing in providing brokerage services, working as a middleman between companies who sell magazines and the companies that actually produce the magazines. They process the data as the companies work to sell magazines and obtain subscribers. "We make sure the publishers are being represented properly, the magazine gets processed, and the consumer gets their magazine," states Justin Rosen, a representative of Priority One Clearing Services.
Because of Priority One Clearing Services' business model, they do not reach out to potential customers to acquire leads. "We don't acquire leads, because we don't sell magazines. The agencies list brokers like BBB and DMA that scrub their leads to make sure there are not people on the Do Not Call list… The guys who are acquiring the leads for the consumers that call us are agencies who are out selling magazines. The way we get that [information] is because the agents or magazine sellers give it to us," explains Mr. Rosen. Their interaction with the end consumer is limited, but Mr. Rosen explains that since they are the last people to touch the magazine before it gets mailed to the consumer, then the consumer can often contact Priority One Clearing Services regarding issues such as the method of delivery of the magazine, canceling delivery, etc.
Priority One Clearing Services Customer Support & Complaint Resolution
Cancelling the subscription, Mr. Rosen explains, is often the cause of complaints received from the consumers. Many times, if the consumer wants to cancel, they generally contact the publisher of the magazine first. Because Priority One works as a middleman between the publisher and the company who sold the subscription, all the publisher can do is refer the consumer to call Priority One. At this point, because Priority One is not the company who actually sold the consumer the subscription and collected payment, they generally have to refer to consumer to a third party, which is the company who actually sold them the magazine subscription. "Sometimes we can cancel it for them and that's the end of the phone call, and other times we can't because we have to refer them to yet one more person who took all of their credit card information. We don't keep any [information] but the name, address, zip code, and magazine," explains Mr. Rosen.
When dealing with customers who have this particular complain, the team at Priority One works to be able to just cancel the subscription for them, but even if they can't, "We never tell them we don't know. We always have an answer for them," states Mr. Rosen. He says he's confident in the companies that they do business with and their ability to take care of their customers. "We don't just say, 'Here call them and let them take care of you,' and pass the buck. We know that when we give them a phone number to call someone, they might get a voicemail or they might get an automated attendant because it's after hours, but they will get their situation resolved," states Mr. Rosen. He explains that customers' reactions to this type of situation could go either way. "On any given day, somebody might be really happy that they got a live person to answer the phone, so they're happy that we told them where it came from… and sometimes they are disappointed or disgruntled because they have to make yet another phone call or they're not sure how they got the magazine to begin with," he explains, but says that unfortunately, he generally can't answer their questions and has to refer them to the company who sold the subscription in the first place. Priority One does have follow-up procedures in place once complaints are resolved, but Mr. Rosen explains that they typically only follow up on bigger issues, such as situations that may involve the BBB.
In response to a complaint posted on Ripoff Report, Mr. Rosen states that, "We don't sell magazine subscriptions. We process the data. We're a data processing center, not a sales center." He explains that the complaints generally revolve around the magazine subscription, which is not something Priority One is responsible for. However, since receiving complaints on Ripoff Report, Priority One has worked to expand their hours so they're available to assist customers who may call in with questions or concerns. "We have always prided ourselves in the way we serve our customers here, so for me it wasn't how we handle those calls differently, it was extending our hours," explains Mr. Rosen.
Mr. Rosen and his team at Priority One Clearing Services recognize the value of working with Ripoff Report and the Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer Satisfaction Program, and the platform it provides for businesses and clients to interact and resolve issues. "I think that Ripoff Report is an interesting platform for people to use to voice and alert people of businesses that need to be reported negatively. I think for us, it's most important to get our company out there so that people understand really who we are versus being a sales center. The biggest misconception about us is that we're a sales center and that we charge people's credit cards. So for us, what is so important to me is to get it out there in a mass way that we are not a sales center. We don't charge credit cards. And if they just give us an opportunity to help them resolve their customer service issues, we will," states Mr. Rosen.
Priority One Clearing Services / Statements from the staff
"Dawn Daugherty's personal and business ethics align completely and their experiences working with Priority One and Dawn Daugherty have been nothing but stellar and never any unmet promises. Her commitment to the community, the staff, which she proudly calls 'The Team', the publishers and to customer service is nothing less than outstanding."
Priority One's staff says there are amazed that Dawn Daugherty actually helps out on the customer service phones when they are busy. "To have her take calls so that she better understands our challenges and the frustrations that a subscriber may have is truly a sign of her commitment to this company".
One newer employee stated "I have never worked for a company that cared so much about their staff and their customers. When Dawn says she is committed, she is serious about all areas of the business, she is all in!"
When subscribers use the "live chat" capability they are able to rate the representative they just worked with to resolve their problem. Those are reviewed and representatives are acknowledged for their accolades. Nothing goes unnoticed by Dawn Daugherty when it comes to a subscriber's satisfaction.
Priority One Clearing recognizes that complaints posted on Ripoff Report (whether true or not) are issues that need to be addressed, not ignored. If handled correctly, complaints can be valuable learning opportunities. With the feedback generated by Ripoff Report's Investigation Priority One Clearing has made adjustments to the hours of receiving subscriber complaints. It has enable subscribers to contact Priority One outside of normal business hours.
In summary, after our review, which included discussions with Dawn Daugherty and many of her past and current associates, Ripoff Report is convinced that Priority One Clearing is committed to quality delivery of services resulting in total subscriber satisfaction.

Priority One Clearing Service Unauthorized magazine subscription Clearwater, FloridaJust as C.S. in San Jose, California said...I, too, received a magazine, "Entrepreneur", which I did not subscribe to. It's not even anything I'd have any interest in so I contacted the company to save them money since all I do is throw the magazine out. The put a hold on my account but told me that I, personally, could not cancel it since it was placed by Priority One Clearing Services.
They gave me the phone number for Priority One, I called & left a message, and soon after some poor school teacher living in Pennsylvania called me back telling me that he gets a lot of these calls because the company is giving his phone number as theirs. Sure enough, on their website is his phone number.
I have sent an email to the president/CEO of the company so we'll see IF she bothers to write me back. They need to be reported to the Better Business Bureau! I NEVER authorized this magazine, nor do I know how they got my information! And as C.S. stated, if they are the "middleman", then they ought to screen their clientele A LOT better.
If this company is legitimate and they truly care about their reputation, I would think they'd step up the background check of their clientele, especially since there are so many complaints! And just HOW are these subscriptions getting paid for? The "Entrepreneur" magazine customer service person couldn't answer that question for me.

The Support Forums will be in read-only mode for a scheduled maintenance window on 01 September 2016 14:00 UTC - 20:00 UTC. More information.
a great easy to use and extremely powerful little extension.
let's you filter your media items in categories.
Somethings are made to make life easier and this one is definatly in my standard installations for any wordpress project.
Thanks to the developer.
Best regards:
I've only used this to display a list of some PDFs in a widget (using the plugin Shortcode Widget) and it's good for that.
I am using a child theme but this plugin looks in the parent theme for your customised templates, so if you follow the instructions and put the
media-category-library directory in the child theme it won't be recognised.
Putting it in the parent theme probably won't be a problem, theme upgrades are unlikely to delete it.
Perfect to organize your library.
its the best plugin for "Media Category"
very good plugin thank you so much
does what it is meant to do, simply, quickly.
This is one of the most useful plugins I have to date! I have lots of sites with lots of images and it's been so hard to find them when I need them. I have been searching and searching for a plugin like this. When I asked a question about whether I could somehow add categories to bulks of images...he simply added the feature to the plugin and next thing I know it's available! I'm completely satisfied with it as is so any further improvements will be totally bonus! Thanks.
I tried other similar plugins and this is the best. I would suggest adding a bulk category assignment.
Moving from DotNetNuke to WordPress, I kind of expected that WordPress would have categories for media. Otherwise, it becomes pretty unwieldy once more than a few media files are uploaded. I am pleased to have found this plug-in, which worked perfectly.
Categories are not tags. So, every item must have only one. Other plugins are complicated and tag the picture for the web, or create new albums on top of the wordpress galleries. I just wanted to clasify my photos in the admin panel. This plugin is perfect for that.

When SS is activated it causes the content of your existing sidebar content to completely disappear. When you de-activate SS, your content then reappears. Activate it, content disappears.
This plugin has always worked brilliantly in the past. The problem seems to have begun after the last Genesis update (1.8.1). This is happening on a non-modified official Genesis child theme, and yes -- the WP, Genesis, and the SS plugin are up to date/latest versions. I build out several websites a month on this framework. I miss the ease of using this plugin! Hoping the issue can be resolved soon.
