Corporate Advocacy Program™
I was completing bpo's for this company for about a year and a half. They have a Quality Control department that handles issues regarding the timeliness and accuracy of the reports. After recieving a report you may have to call another agent to schedule an appointment to take interior photos. The company also asks for exterior only photos to be taken at times. I had one particular report that was given to me on Melrose street in Lakeview. I remember it very well because I use to live across the street from the property.
The property was a building that had been converted into a condo. Unable to find a condo with such massive square footage, I used other buildings that hadn't been converted to condos. I explained to the Old Republic representative why I used buildings instead of condos in my report. The representative was unable to effectively communicate why they were unable to pass the report. Instead, I got a laundry list of insults, and threats. Since we weren't communicating well I told the representative that they could use the pictures I took and let someone else complete the report. I said this very nicely and respectfully.
After I said that he said, I'll TAKE CARE OF YOU BUDDY. He called my LITTLE MAN, and a bunch of other things that I can't recall. I stopped recieving reports, and when I called to find out why everyone kept saying, You messed up on a few reports. How can you mess up when your company has quality control? Mess ups rarely happen, and should be credited to quality control if ever they should happen. This company is a rip off because agents drive all over to take pictures for them, only to be talked to like dirt by a faceless person. I've taken classes to understand how to complete bpo's, yet my expertise is meaningless to some of these reps who feel that agents are a dime a dozen.
I was talked to like mud by this person and feel that I've not only done nothing to deserve this treatment. But, I've bent over backwards to make sure the job was done right. In return, all I get are lies, "You messed up on a few reports". If that is correct, what responsibility does quality control take in this supposed mistake. Personally, I feel that I got some guy that was having a very bad day and knew he could take it out on me, and that there wasn't anything I could do about it. For now, he's right. I use to make between 500- 1500 a month with Old Republic, now 0. And my name has been slandered in addition to the 0, so I'm in the negative now.

Compost is one of the most common and beneficial garden amendments — but are you always getting what you pay for? The costs of compost, whether bagged or in bulk, vary widely, and to help you get the best value, we're sharing this analysis completed by our friends at Woods End Laboratories. These calculations show that buying loads of bulk compost and hauling them in a pick-up truck can save you a ton of money! (See the yellow column in the second chart below for estimates of your savings.)
These calculations assume a density of 800 lbs. per cubic yards of compost.
*40 lbs. per bag = 1.5 cubic feet each (12 QTs)
**Typical Maine bagged compost price at retail outlet
^Assumes 15 mile roundtrip at $0.45 per mile
Assumes a bulk compost cost of $50 per yard
According to these figures, bagged compost needs to be priced at or less than $2.25 per bag to compete with the cost of hauling your own compost puchased in bulk. For details on making your own compost at home and saving even more money, check out our article Compost Made Easy.

Hi Nancy! I like this - nice and substantial. I love a piece with some heft to it. That's a lovely carving job too. You might enjoy experimenting with a product called 'scratch-foam'; it is a very fine grained styrofoam. You can use a stylus or ball point pen in order to incise a design on it. Then it becomes a shallow bas-relief mold you can use to create a raised design in your wet clay. http://www.amazon.com/Scratch-Art-Scratch-Foam%C2%AE-Board-pack/dp/B000KIEBJI. You will have a raised design instead of a 'carved' one, but all the drawing is done on the foam. I would love to see what some students can do with this medium! Thanks for posting your project. it's great!
Delicious! I admire your bail and pendant work. I'm now trying to figure out photopolymer and imagepac for image transfer -- to make stamps of my drawings.
Love it! great idea! I have a candle mold for this one and love it.. great idea for a pendant! looks great!
Love this!

Im not sure I should even post this, but I need some insight. I have been on extreme bed rest and in and out of the hospital since 11-12-12. Since being on bedrest due to bleeding there is NO intercouse restrictions. My SO and I use to be very active sexually and now there is nothing to do about that. My SO is has been extremely pushy about that fact that just because I am "broken" doesn't mean he is. And Im not comfortable nor do I feel obligated to preform ANY sexual acts with him including oral. Am I being an ass here? I feel crampy and icky all the time, spend 99.9% of the time on the couch or in our bed. I feel he is being super selfish, but then again he feels the same way about me and makes me in turn feel like I am being selfish by not fulfulling his needs. Im lost and it puts a huge knot in my throat to think about all of this. any advice or insight?
Bedrest and SO issues?
He's being a jackwagon. You're not being selfish. You're doing WHAT THE DR ORDERED for you and your LO.
If *anything*, I'd buy him a fake'gina so he can work on himself in a comfy way; the gift will have shown him that you still care, but that you simply can't (and won't) be that for him right now. (This is only if you have the money to buy one and are comfy with him masturbating, of course)
After 2.5 yrs TTC, preggo with first kiddo; now Mum to Gabriel Logan Jan 2010; 6mo TTC #2=Zachariah Huxley 31913; Happily married since 06-25-05
I already bought him the BEST one on the market!!!!! lol. I thought it was thoughtful and I know he uses it. He asks for sexual favors all the time, but like I said I am very crampy, bled like crazy for almost two months straight and just icky feeling. I tell him this is why I dont want to do anything and then he tells me that he has needs ya know. It upsets me so bad!
Offer to be there as a physical presence next to him and talk dirty to him, but tell him that is the extent of your participation.
im on BR and my dh gets like this sometimes I mostly give in and give him a quick blowie just to shut him up... he does help me out..feeding me getting me things etc.. lol
but when I feel blaaaah and not well I just tell him to fuck off or go find someone else to blow him.. lol usualy leads to him going down to the porn computer. poor guy
I tried to tell him it isnt just the intercourse, but any arousal at all can cause me to have contractions and that is another reason why I have been aprehensive about this. Especially since contractions has been a big issue with the bleeding and clot on my cervix.I think he thinks he is dying! I just think it is rude to even ask, I would NEVER ask anything like this of my SO if he was in any way uncomfortable or was restricted.
After reading your update: it's for sure. He's being a douche canoe. Seriously. Have him talk to your doctor about exactly what you're going through and exactly why you shouldn't be doing such things right now. What the f type of partner can't go without (but not fully, as you mentioned he uses his new toy) sex for a couple of months for the help of his loved one and child?
Hubby says he's being a "douchetard" and that he's being ridiculous and should have more respect.
Sorry. Normally I don't have him read these posts, but I had to get the point across that it's not just women who think your SO is being utterly out of line

University of Leicester academic involved in project on Comics and Narration
Published by University of Leicester Press Office for University of Leicester in Education
A University of Leicester academic has been involved in a new book by a leading comic theorist.
Ann Miller, a University Fellow in French at the University of Leicester, has published widely on French-language comics.
She has translated Comics and Narration (University Press of Mississippi) - Thierry Groensteen's follow up study to his ground-breaking The System of Comics (2007) in which the leading French-language comics theorist set out to investigate how the medium works, introducing the principle of iconic solidarity, and showing the systems that underlie the articulation between panels at three levels: page layout, linear sequence and non-sequential links woven through the comic book as a whole.
With Comics and Narration, Groeensteen now develops that analysis further, using examples from a very wide range of comics, including the work of American artists such as Chris Ware and Robert Crumb. He tests out his theoretical framework by bringing it up against cases that challenge it, such as abstract comics, digital comics and shōjo manga, and offers insightful reflections on these innovatory tendencies.
Dr Miller said: "Groensteen writes with great elegance and subtle wit, so it was a real challenge trying to find a voice in English that would achieve the same tone. Groensteen's erudition extends over comics in English as well as French, and the University of Mississippi Press have pulled off a great coup by getting the Chris Ware strip on the cover - Chris Ware fans should be delighted with the brilliant section that Groensteen devotes to him. I hope that the book will help to bridge the gap between comics scholars in French- and English-speaking countries, who don't always find common ground."
This volume includes lengthy chapters on three areas not covered in the first book:
- The role of the narrator, both verbal and visual, and the particular issues that arise out of narration in autobiographical comics;
- The question of rhythm in comics, and the skill demonstrated by virtuoso artists in interweaving different rhythms over and above the basic beat provided by the discontinuity of the panels;
- The relationship of comic to contemporary art, conditioned by cultural history and aesthetic traditions but evolving recently as comics artists move onto avant-garde terrain.
Comics and Narration can serve as an introduction to the contemporary comics field across several cultures. Groensteen, the most respected scholar in the field of comics studies, writes elegantly and clearly. His aim throughout is to shed light on comics, and on how readers make meaning from them.
Thierry Groensteen, is a comics scholar and translator. He is the author of The System of Comics, published in English by University Press of Mississippi, among other books. Ann Miller is a University Fellow in French at University of Leicester in Leicester, England. She has published widely on French-language comics.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
In November 2007, I noticed a slight change to my Qwest service, a software upgrade or something, which I was told via a voicemail message from Qwest would enhance my service. I noticed right away that certain things changed, namely the nice recorded voice of the voicemail lady who says things like, "You have three new messages." As soon as this service enhancement happened, I started receiving bills from Qwest with the usual $16.47 charge on it, as well as a third party itemized charge listed as:
"Agora VoiceMess" - $8.43
I really didn't think anything of this charge. I simply assumed (and I think rightly so) that this charge was a supplement to the enhancement Qwest has provided as an upgrade to my voicemail service and that my service had simply become a little bit more expensive.
Since November 2007, I've received a charge every month for $24.90 -- $16.47 for my basic voicemail service ans $8.43 from Agora Solutions for Agora VoiceMess Monthly. However, this month (January 2009) I noticed that the usual Agora itemised charge had changed to:
"WWW.INFOBILLING.COM" - Infobilling monthly fee - $8.43
So, I called Qwest to query what this new charge was for. The first lovely customer service representative with whom I spoke (Ben) seemed confused too and happily removed the charge from my bill for the month of January, as well as promising to stop any future bills from the mysterious Infobilling service. After a bit of digging into my account, he said that I'd need to phone third party The Billing Resources ETS (who had previously been billing me on behalf of Agora Solutions), to query my previous charges, and he gave me their phone number on (888) 296-8079.
I rang this number and was connected to a call centre with an automated message stating that any queries about Agora Solutions would need to call a different number, (800) 215-1961, or could visit www.cancelmyvm.com. I called this new number, and was connected to a call centre where the first female agent I spoke with spoke very poor English. She then transferred me to another agent, (Brian, #6659), who also didn't speak great English and wasn't very helpful.
After explaining my situation, Brian insisted that I had signed up to Agora's product, which he said wasn't a voicemail service at all, but a free 1-800 service. I insisted that I had never ordered the service, and when I asked why my bill lilsted the service as voicemail rather than a 1-800 service, he didn't seem to know. He claimed I had signed up for the service over the internet, and when I challenged him to tell me what data of mine he had on file, he gave me an incorrect date of birth and a mailing address that had been out of date for approximately 4 years! However, worryingly, he did have my correct name and email address.
I then explained that clearly the service had been set up on a fraudulent basis, and he offered to refund me 6 months' worth of fees. I told him I wanted all 13 months refunded, and he accused me of failing to read my bills properly. However, when I explained that there would have been no reason for me to query my bill earlier, given that my itemised charges stated they were for voicemail service -- and voicemail service was the only service I had from Qwest, he said he'd put me through to ANOTHER supervisor. I then was put on hold for 15 minutes and told that a supervisor would call me within 30 minutes. It's now been over 2 hours and I haven't had a call back.
I then called Qwest's customer services department to try and get to the bottom of the situation, and asked to speak straight away to a supervisor. I was put through to a rather surly and rude woman named Allison, who listened to my story with complete disdain and simply repeated everything that Brian had told me -- that I was the silly customer for not reading my bills and that there was nothing she could do -- that Qwest is required by law to bill via third parties regardless of who they are. I explained again that The Billing Resource ETS had not only fraudulently been billing me for these charges, but that their itemised billing via Qwest was also fraudulent because it described voicemail services rather than a 1-800 number service, and this is the reason I did not query my bills earler.
I am extremely angry that Qwest does not protect my account -- they could have easily challenged The Billing Resources ETS/Agora Solutions to verify either my date of birth or billing address before accepting any charges on my behalf. But they did nothing and now don't want anything to do with the consequences.
I was comforted slightly to know that other people have experienced this same scam, and I want to let everyone know that there is a law firm who have "launched an investigation into the billing practices of residential landline or wireline telephone carriers a/k/a local exchange carriers or LECs , third party billing aggregators and third party merchants regarding their charging and billing for third party products and services without express authorization of telephone subscribers and customers." I suggest everyone contact them in addition to your standard complaints procedures to stop this horrible practice of cramming.
I am strongly considering cancelling my Qwest service for good.

Burger King A1 Hearty Mozzerella Bacon Cheesburger Review
I'm a big fan of Burger King. I think they have better burgers than a lot of the other national chains. It also helps that there is one right next to my work, and another 2 blocks from my house. Today I stopped to get a burger. My favorite in the last few months has been the bacon and cheese whopper, but this time I tried the A1 Hearty Mozzerella Bacon Cheeseburger.

Great plugin you have here!
I'm very interested to go pro and buy the custom CSS service. I'm just a click away and tried to contact you through the contact page but an error page came up.
The idea of the shopping cart I want is very similar to indochino but I have a currently sufficient ajax cart from the original theme. What I want is to use your plugin for the top navigation menu + footer menu and hide the original cart from the navigation menu. It would be great if I can have the accordion dropdown for the mobile responsive view that is styled in a similar way to Indochino.

Some people make films in homage to Ingmar Bergman, others nod to the French New Wave, but only the Wilsons would think to follow in the footsteps of Burt Reynolds.
Movies in which the same person serves as writer, director, and star should carry a special warning for audiences, even if that individual happens to be an actor as endearing as Luke Wilson.

Why isn't 'Rise of the Guardians' a box office hit?
There is something very disheartening about the box office performance of "Rise of the Guardians" this past holiday weekend. When Paramount and DreamWorks Animation first previewed footage from "Guardians" early this year there was genuine excitement in the media and animation circles. After surprising moviegoers with an unexpectedly adult-friendly "Puss and Boots" and somehow improving critically with "Kung Fu Panda 2," DWA seemed intent on continuing to break the mold with their upcoming slate. Principally, "Guardians" was executive produced by Guillermo Del Toro (who seemed to work wonders for "Boots") and was their first property acquisition since "Shrek" back in the day. And that was just the beginning of its impressive creative credentials.
Based on a relatively recent book series from William Joyce, the concept of a team of holiday heroes banding together for a common cause seemed like it might appeal to adults as much as kids. Moreover, the animation was squarely based on Joyce's own gorgeous renderings and the footage previewed was exceptional. It already looked like it had the potential to be the most beautiful CG animated feature films to date. And there's more. Joyce is best known for his children books such as "A Day with Wilbur Robinson" and "Rolie Polie Olie," but had recently won a best animated short film Academy Award for "The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore." He was also a producer and production designer on Blue Sky's hit "Robots" and had even contributed conceptual designs for Pixar's "Toy Story" and "A Bug's Life." The fact that Pulitzer-prize winning playwright David Lindsay-Abaire received sole credit on the screenplay only increased the prestige factor (multiple screenwriters would not have been a good sign). In fact, most awards pundits had it as a legit contender for best animated picture of the year. Then something strangely went wrong.
The first sign was when the $145 million budgeted "Guardians" didn't pop on pre-release tracking as expected. Family films are always hard to gauge, but when it hit theaters on Wednesday it placed third with just $4.8 million. That was far behind "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Pt. 2" and "Skyfall." By Sunday, "Guardians" fell to fourth with just $32.6 million over five days. That's the smallest opening frame gross for a DreamWorks Animation film since 2006's disastrous "Flushed Away" "Puss in Boots" made $34.6 million last October, but that was over three days.
Now, some will try and put the blame on distributor Paramount Pictures. DWA recently announced it was ending its distribution deal with the venerable studio and switching to 20th Century Fox beginning with "The Croods" next March. That theory is just silly and uninformed, however. Paramount received a distribution fee of 8% on every DWA film they distributed. When the global box office amounts to a figure such as "Madagascar 3's" $740 million, that's not chump change to the bottom line. And considering how weak Paramount's year has been overall, you can guess they would have preferred to send DWA off with a blockbuster rather then with a bomb.
It all begs the obvious question: where did this one go wrong?
Uncharted release date territory
Over its 14-year history, DreamWorks Animation has never released one picture on Thanksgiving, "Guardians" was the first. The problem is that when you enter such a competitive frame you are better suited with a brand people recognize and are comfortable with. Distracting casual moviegoers from early holiday shopping . "Twilight," James Bond and even bestseller "Life of Pi" fall into that mix. "Guardians"? Just not well known enough to pop through the theatrical clutter. This is a warning to almost every studio that only sequels and established brands should be slotted during this frame. And for those who would use "Tangled's" blockbuster opening during this frame in 2010 as a counterpoint, remember: the Disney corporate marketing machine (Disney Parks, Disney Stores, Disney Channel, Disney Radio) is a wonder all of its own. "Tangled" was already a brand name before the lights went down on opening day.
North's Russian voice didn't help
One common complaint across the board from those who saw the film and those who just caught trailers or TV spots was Alec Baldwin's distinct Russian accent for North, aka St. Nick. It wasn't prejudice against our friends in Eastern Europe, but a distaste for Santa Claus having such an unexpected and gruff sound. It was a subtle mistake when you're aiming the marketing directly at parents of small kids.
Marketing pushed limited appeal to adults
Speaking of marketing, DreamWorks Animation and Paramount strategically went after just parents and kids as their primary demo. Ever since the beginning of the campaign, they limited their appeal to younger men or genre fans (highly regular moviegoers) who might have found the film's look, creative background and untraditional animation appealing. This effectively says to those moviegoers "This movie is for my niece, nephew or that kid around the block and not for me" ("Frankenweenie" also had problems reaching this demo). Contrast that with "Wreck-it Ralph" which broadened its base thanks to its video game setting (and HALO knockoff storyline) - a strength Disney jumped on with its TV spots and overall marketing efforts.
What was the story?
From the first preview, a common refrain was, "I don't get it. What's it about?" The studio seemed to have such concerns about showing the very dark and evil looking villain that in its first major trailer (in July) it introduced the Jude Law-voiced Pitch, but barely showed him. The Guardians are recruiting Jack Frost (seemingly our hero), but what exactly is the Pitch doing? I mean, don't all kids have nightmares? Confusing.
Wrong celebrity voices or "that celebrity casting thing may not work anymore"
DWA was at the forefront of hiring big name celebrities to voice the characters in animated films. From "Shrek" (Mike Meyers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz) to "Shark Tale" (Will Smith) to "Madagascar" (Ben Stiller, Chris Rock) to "Kung Fu Panda" (Jack Black, Angelina Jolie) to "Bee Movie" (Jerry Seinfeld) to "Megamind" (Will Ferrell Tina Fey), DWA has been able to use these stars to generate major publicity. It hasn't always worked ("Over the Hedge"), but CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg has rewarded the stars who work hard handsomely. "Rise" may be the first real example of it bringing nothing to the table at all. Chris Pine and Hugh Jackman were unavailable to work the publicity machine in the states leaving only Isla Fisher and Alec Baldwin to carry the load (and you can argue only Jackman has any real bankability with moviegoers at this point). Shockingly, as much as we love both actors, that didn't cut it. Pine and Jackman are currently on tour trying to help the film's international release where the film's $145 million budget will have to be made up somehow.
It's the movie stupid (or not)
So, the reviews for "Guardians" were not bad. They were just fine. The film received a 74% on Rotten Tomatoes and a "mixed" 56 on Metacritic. That's far behind "Wreck-it Ralph" (86%, 73), "Frankenweenie" (89%, 74), "ParaNorman" (86%, 72) and even studio stablemate "Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted" (78%, 60). The lack of enthusiasm among critics may be one reason the box office didn't jump the rest of the weekend, but it also suggests "Rise" might not have a long shelf life. Warner Bros. has positioned "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" as a major family player (they would love a PG rating), Disney has a re-release of "Monster's Inc." in 3D and Fox's "Parental Guidance" will be the only other PG films in the marketplace, but without strong word of mouth it won't matter much. "Puss in Boots" grossed $149 million partially because of an amazing 3% drop its second weekend. For "Rise," that seems unlikely.
Of course, DreamWorks Animation is the comeback kid of animated studios. "How To Train Your Dragon" and "Puss in Boots" both opened under $43 million and had eye-popping holds thanks to great word of mouth. If not, "Rise" may barely hit $100 million domestically. That would only put tremendous pressure on DWA and Paramount International to make it up overseas or face the wrath of the company's always understanding stockholders.
And best picture? Well, at this point "Rise" is just hoping to snag a nomination. It's pretty much "Wreck-it Ralph's" to lose.
Did you see "Rise" this weekend? And if you didn't, why not? Share your thoughts below.

Try WP-dTree 4.0 and delete the white-space:nowrap; line from its css.
HI ulfben and thanks. That definitely helped. Not being too versed in css, is there any way to adjust the list margins so the wrapping line is aligned with the top line? I tried your option for disabling WP-dTree's css and working from my Thesis css but I couldn't find where that list element is controlled.
Try using the Chrome browser and its "Inspect element"-feature. It allows you to click any element of a page, to see and adjust all it's properties (incl. CSS).
Keep us posted.
I have the plugin and it works really well! Can you tell me what I should look for that will control the list wrap for your plugin?
I have the same problem, longer page titles are wrapping back across the tree, which looks a bit like this:
+--- the link thats too long
and has to wrap
Which isn't too tidy to my eyes. Tried the css removal to no avail. Tried the kitchen sink too....!?!?!?!?!? Help!
display: inline-block; fixed it for me
see this page
Not so compliant in ancient versions of IE but what is?
hafman [or anyone :] any chance you could provide specific use of display: inline-block; ... i haven't been able to get the long titles to wrap within the list width.
help would be most fully appreciated :)
msdeadlines, it seems in your theme all you have to do is disable WP-dTree's default stylesheet. Do it from Settings -> WP-dTree
If you want to edit the styling further, read the documentation.
hi ulf
thanks so much for your response. yes i have disabled WP-dTree's default stylesheet and am working with the theme stylesheet. however my css knowledge is not to the point where i've been able to troubleshoot the category title line wrap issue :(
any additional help would be appreciated ... or a link to a WordPress/WP-dTree site where the category title line wrap is implemented so i could take a look at the effective css would also be great :]
ta for now
-- joyce
hello Joyce,
The css rules i used are:
.node {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
max-width: 250px;
min-height: 20px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
/* For IE 7 */
*zoom: 1;
*display: inline;
There is supposed to be a hack for IE 7 but i'm not sure it works. I don't have a copy of that browser available. I left in just in case. Hope that helps.
- Nick
rockin! thanks nick :)
yes seems to work with IE 7 too, using Adobe BrowserLab to verify.
thanks much!

LATHROP – Folks who fail to pay their water bill should get a break from the city.
The Manteca Mural Society and the City of Manteca Parks and Recreation Department have announced the remaining two of the four artists whose paintings will be featured on the L-shaped eight-foot walls in the newly expanded Library Park downtown.

LATHROP – The policy that the City of Lathrop maintains when it comes to receiving utility bills is clear.
Two years ago when city employees took a 3.8 percent hit due to furlough days to keep the city afloat the pain was also shared by contracted services such as the Manteca Convention & Visitors Bureau. The mayor and the rest of the City Council voluntarily took an even higher cut in their stipends of 10 percent.
The 27th Annual Sunrise Kiwanis Pumpkin Fair held over the weekend lived up to its family-friendly reputation.
Manteca needs to build at least two more fire stations to meet adopted municipal emergency response service goals for development already in place.

Manteca's economy has taken on the characteristics of Sybil.
Manteca is preparing to install a 12-inch water line from Austin Road to Pestana Avenue along East Louise Avenue.
Drive-thru windows – the bane of efforts to reduce San Joaquin Valley air pollution – are a prominent feature of three new businesses advancing through the municipal approval process.
LATHROP – Michael Navarrette is a big Star Wars fan.
The days of cramped space and drab surroundings for Manteca's unwanted or lost dogs and cats are numbered.
Pumpkins and a smashing good time go hand-in-hand as the 27th annual Sunrise Kiwanis Manteca Pumpkin Fair opens today in downtown.

Skill Level Intermediate
In this exercise, we are going to see how our vector-based logo was put together inside of Adobe Illustrator, more specifically, how I put it together. Now I've got the filigree, as I was saying, from the Fotolia Image Library, about which you can learn more at fotolia.com/deke, but everything else I did here inside of Illustrator. Now by this point in time, we've opened the Smart Object in Illustrator. You may recall this. If you're working on Windows, by the way, you can press the Window key along with Tab in order to get this groovy effect right there, in order to switch between your various applications.
You can just Command+Tab through them on the Mac if you want to or use Expos? or something along those lines. But anyway, here is our larger composition called Placed artwork.psd, as you may recall, found inside the 02_ACR_and_ Illustrator folder, and then I just went ahead and double-clicked on the thumbnail for Product logo in order to open it inside of Illustrator. Now why am I telling you something that we just got through doing? Just so that you know where we are at. I just don't want anybody left behind. Now at this point, it's a little deceiving seeing this logo against the white background, because we can't actually see the type, there is some type right there, by deZign and it's white against white, so it's totally invisible to us right now.
So what I am going to do is I am going to go up to the View menu. I invite you to do this as well if you're working along with me and choose Show Transparency Grid, which has a keyboard shortcut of Ctrl+Shift+D, Command+Shift+D on the Mac. I didn't make that one up. That's just one of Illustrator's defaults there. But anyway, Show Transparency Grid and you'll see this checkerboard pattern in the background. I set things up so that the checkerboard is alternating shades of gray, so that we can easily make out the white type right there. Now then, what I'd like you to do is click on Product, right there with the Black Arrow tool, which is this guy right there.
The Selection tool, if you will, which you can get by pressing the V key, V as in move or actually I have this guy suggests that A was for an arrow pointing one direction, the A for the Direct Selection tool, which is the White Arrow tool and V is an arrow pointing in the other direction, pointing downward for the Selection tool. So that's, I guess, another way to think of it. Anyway, so I went ahead and selected Product here. Then the next thing I want you to do is make sure that your Appearance Palette is up on screen, which it is for me, this guy right there and you can get to it, by the way, by going to the Window menu and choosing Appearance.
It has a keyboard shortcut as well. Anyway, I am going to switch over to the Appearance Palette and I am going to turn-off some of these eyeballs here. Now these eyeballs only exist inside of Illustrator CS4. It didn't use to have Show and Hide control inside of Illustrator CS3 and earlier, as obvious as it is, go figure. Anyway, let's go ahead and turn-off all the eyeballs except the bottom Fill. So notice that I have a bunch of different fills getting incrementally lighter as you can see here, assigned to this text. And what's going on here? If you twirl one of these items open.
For example, I'll twirl the bottom Fill, nothing special. It just says, Opacity Default. So in another words, it's just your standard everyday average flat fill. All right, and the fill being the color applied to the interior of the type as opposed to stroke which strokes along outside the type. We'll come to that in a moment. I am going to turn-on the next Fill up which gets incrementally lighter. Now, let's go ahead and zoom in here so you can see this. I am zooming in quite a bit, now I'll scroll down. You can see that the inner fill is thinner, so that it's offset inward.
You can think of it as being inset if you like. To check out what's going on there, twirl open that Fill and you'll see that I've got this thing Offset Path. Now you apply these dynamic effects to your fill and stroke attributes inside of Illustrator by clicking on the attribute and then you go up to the Effect menu and you choose the desired command. Now that's easier said than done, because there is bizillion commands right here, but only a few of them are the kinds of things you use on a regular basis, and one of the ones that I use a lot or you can use if you like is right here Path>Offset Path, so that guy right there.
Now we don't want to choose them in our case because that apply another paths of Offset Path, we don't need that But that is how you apply it. You can also go down to this little fx icon in Illustrator CS4 and it gives you the same menu. Anyway, if you want to see what we've done then what you would do is you would click on this little link there in order to bring up the Offset Path dialog box. You can see that the Fill has been Offset one point inward, is basically the idea, the negative sign means inward. Were it positive, it'd be going outward. I will turn-on the Preview checkbox so we can see what I mean.
So now you can see it's offsetting outward. But we want those inward and to get a real sense of what's going on here. You could just press the Down Arrow key like so and you can see that that fill is going thinner and thinner as it's getting offset more and more. I also change the Joins to Round, instead of Miter because Miter is going to give us really pointy outlines. It's not making any difference in this case, but it makes a big difference down here in the filigree. Cancel out of that. Just want you to get a sense of what's going on. I don't expect you to totally learn the program during this little exercise here but I just want to give you sort of a sketch of what's going on.
All right, let's check out the next Fill, this guy. Twirl it open and I have got an Offset and this time we're offsetting a little more, notice it's a -2, this time around, Cancel out and then we have got this Transform. That Transform you apply by clicking on a Fill, if you want to target that one attribute, then you'd go to Effect> Distort and Transform and Transform. This is my favorite dynamic effect of all of them, and it's so darn useful. Anyway, that's how I applied it. To check out what's going on you click on the word Transform there, brings up the Transform Effect dialog box.
You can scale your fill independently of the rest of the shape, if you want to you could rotate it, check this out. I'll go ahead and turn-on Preview and then I'll start rotating the fill and you can see that we're rotating that one fill independently of the rest of the letters. That's crazy, not something we want to do here but you could. I'll set that back to an Angle of zero. Lots of other stuff you can reflect. You can create multiple copies if you want to. All I did was I just nudged the fill up a little bit. So with Preview on once again, see the difference. This is a Vertical value of zero so it's centered inside, that is the lighter purple centered inside the darker purple, and as I increase this value you can see that I am nudging it upward like so.
So anyway, I just nudged it up one point. Cancel out and that's what's happening with the other guys too. So this lighter fill right there is Offset -3 points, so it's inset. Cancel out. Transform, moving it up 2 points, that simple. And then the next guy, right there, is as you might well assume, has an Offset of -4 this time. Cancel out and a Transform of 3 points. All right, and that's it, Cancel out. Now that's what's happening not only for this type, for the word Product here, but also for the filigree below it.
In the next exercise, what we are going to do is we are going to modify both the type and the filigree. We are going to leave by deZign alone, but we are going to change the attributes associated with Product and filigree and then we're going to update our changes inside of Photoshop. Stay tuned.

A Flood Watch is in effect through Saturday morning for the entire area except for the southeastern Big Bend.
After two days of heavy rains with totals of up to 6 inches in many areas, moderate rain continues to fall across South Georgia and the North Florida Big Bend. Several roads have been reported under water across the area. Remember, driving through water-covered roadways is extremely dangerous. Parts of the road may have washed away, and as little as two feet of water can float most vehicles.

[LAST UPDATED 4/12 at 7PM]
Firefighters responded to a roaring inferno at the corner of Jefferson and Pine Street in downtown Thomasville around 4:30 Sunday afternoon (4/10) and say they went to work putting it out.
Fire investigators say extensive damage from backhoes, smoke, and water made it impossible to determine where the fire started inside the building.
The cause of a roaring Sunday blaze in Thomasville is unknown.
Firefighters say the building on fire at the corner of Jefferson and Pine Streets was vacant, but at one point it had been used as a mechanic shop.
No injuries were reported, and no other buildings were in danger of catching on fire.
Firefighters say they'll have a better idea of what caused the blaze once the flames are out and the smoke dies down.
