To the Editor:—
The statement that the total circulating sodium is usually normal in uncomplicated sodium redistribution is based on studies using the techniques described. As expected from theoretical considerations, serial studies show some decrease in base line levels of total plasma sodium when there is a shift of sodium into tissue depots such as bone. However, except in patients with profound disturbances in acid-base and potassium balance (where other mechanisms are invoked), in our experience, cation shifts of less than 10% do not greatly alter the total circulating sodium, and resulting values fall within the range of our reported normal levels (370 to 470 mEq. in a 70-kg. man). Justification for estimating the total circulating sodium as described is that this type of study is available in most hospitals; it is easily and quickly obtained and can be repeated serially; resulting data reduce errors made when treatment is directed

Cascade Fathead II ribbon microphone
The somewhat amusingly named Fathead II is a ribbon mic assembled in the USA by Cascade Microphones of "off shore components". Thus, the build quality and quality control are very good, better than what one might expect at the price. And the low price is one of the selling points of this mic, along with the aforementioned generally good quality; as well as decent sound.
The mic is sold singly or in pairs, and usually comes in a nice case, either wood or metal, with a very substantial shockmount; and in some iterations, a very "heavy duty" stereo bar, which is very useful for Blumlein positioning and that sort of thing. A couple of color options are offered. Materially, the Fathead II and its accessories are good value for the money.
Sonically, the mic certainly exhibits the instantly recognizable ribbon tone, with huge, warm lows, relatively clear mids, and very attenuated highs. My pair has only the stock transformer, and reportedly the upgraded one sounds somewhat clearer. There is a certain color to the Fathead's sound however that I imagine is wedded to the basic design and componentry of the mic, with either transformer. On some sources this can be a good thing, whilst on most others it can be less than ideal. This can best be heard by A/B'ing the mic with another model, for example a more expensive ribbon mic. Usually the mid frequency coloration of the better mic will be more pleasant, and far preferable, to that of the Fathead.
However, I have had good results using the Fatheads in a M-S array on jazz drums, and as a single overhead mic on "fiddle" (not violin), where it really, really took the edge off any potential stridency. But generally I have found that there are much better sounding ribbon mics available, albeit usually more expensive.
As a possible first foray into the warm, natural sound of ribbon mics, one could do a lot worse than the Fathead II. A low-ender, admittedly, but good value for the price.

Cascade Fathead II Ribbon Microphone
I bought a pair of these as my first ribbon mics. Having only recorded guitar amps with dynamics and LDCs, I really liked the beef this added to my guitar sounds. It's really dark sounding, but I love blending it with an RE20 to find the perfect tone. It's usually pretty low in the mix, but it does add some nice warmth. If you turn the mic around backwards, it's a little brighter.
The case and accessories are great, shockmounts are super sturdy and holds the mic with elastic (really strong, unlike the BLUE shockmounts), so nothing to twist or crank or get stuck. I haven't had a chance to use the blumlein bar yet, but I'm sure it's great.
I bought a pair thinking I would use them as another option for drum overheads... not so exciting for me though. Smooth, but waaaay to dark for my liking. Put them up in the room and liked them better, but I think they'll stay on guitar cabs for me.
Cascade claims that they can handle phantom power with no damage... I can attest to that... on a few occasions. I'll learn to be more careful when I get my Royer...

Cascade Fathead II
This mic is a great value. I had borrowed a stock Fathead I from a friend few years ago. I was really impressed after using it to track a nylon string guitar and a vintage Fender amp. I recently bought a used Fathead II with the Lundhal transformer upgrade from a fellow on Gearslutz. I love it! It gives every source I've used it on a nice, smooth, warm and "woody" sound. It sounds great on strings, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, and voice. It also comes with a nice padded wooden box, and a sturdy metal carrying case.
The only thing I don't like about this mic is the shockmount. It's a little hard to get the mic in and out, and the tightening screw tends to come loose. I also wish the it had a low cut switch as it has quite a huge proximity effect.
Cascade's customer service is also very good. When my ribbon became damaged and started buzzing, I called Cascade and they replaced it for me quickly and cheaply. They are a cool company making cool mics. I wish I had held out to buy that new copper colored Knucklehead ribbon they just released. That thing is beautiful!

Fat Head II
I borrowed the Cascade Fat Head II from a friend before purchasing my own. The one I borrowed was a standard FatHead II with no transformer upgrade. It make me discover ribbon mics and since then I use it on almost all recordings as another texture alongside my cardioids.
You have to purchase it online as no local store has it. The purchase and delivery was easy, secure and fast.
I purchased one with the Cinemag transformer upgrade and did some comparative testings with the standard one. The upgraded one is a bit more cleaner and upfront. Feel a bit more professional for lack of better word.
The sound is darker than all the mics I used to date, it got a creamy texture that adds a lot of character to a recording. I use it for vocals, guitars, flutes percussions, drums. It smooth out the transients and gives a roundness that other kind of microphones did not. I used it combined with a cardioid on a cello and violin and the combination gives a perfect match of smooth tone and precision.
It come in a steel case and the mic is placed in a wooden box. It has a great protection casing. Like the other reviewer said, the shockmount is a bit tricky to use. The suspension elastics gets unhooked a bit too easily from the shockmount frame.
The price is great for this quality, it's not an all-rounded mic for sure but a great mic to have in your sonic palette.

Fathead Ribbon
I have owned both Fathead and Fathhead II (didnt hear a difference, personally). I think they are solid e guitar mics and would throw one up with the same confidence (maybe more) than a 57. In fact, a 57 and a fathead side by side on a nice tube combo amp sounds like a good day of e guit tracking.
Sucks on vocals, interesting on percussion, sucks on viola, interesting in Blumlein room.

An Alternate Focus on a Great Microphone
Many people have already written reviews and opinions on how this microphone performs. I'd like to focus on some areas that seem to have been left out: namely, some nuances of this ribbon mic, and the rest is about workmanship.
First of all, I want to explain a little about why I bought a pair of these microphones. I used to record choral, orchestral, and jazz in Indianapolis, quite often live shows. One of our prize microphones was Royer's SF-12. The $2700 microphone was used for many things, but it's fame was as a primary stereo pair for the choral performances. The words "rich texture" have become a cliche', but the description fits. The microphone was not mine, and when I moved away, I missed it dearly!
I spent many hours reading reviews and opinions, and listening to shootouts on ribbon mics. There really isn't any one mic that is better than all the others for all sources. But there are some very impressive mics these days, for much less money than a few years ago. The Fat Head first caught my eye when it was recommended to me from someone here on GearSlutz. I am quite grateful.
I did actually want a replacement mic for my Royer, in the beginning. But as I researched further, I decided to think hard about my options. The Royer mics do advertise an extended frequency response in the upper and lower spectrum, according to the charts; however my ears tell me the upper end of the spectrum is not as flat as they claim. The SF-12 also has a bold midsection that often needs taming. But we all know ribbons have their own personality. When I had, at one point, decided I might try one of the long ribbon mics, in an effort to provide me the extended upper frequency range, I later changed my mind, heading back toward the short ribbons, merely due to the fact that the roll-off is a cool characteristic common in the shorter diaphragm. Because I already have a wide range of condensers and dynamics, I really wanted something with its own personality. In the end, I decided to buy a matched pair of the Fathead II, with the Lundahl transformer upgrade.
I am pretty darned happy with these things, and I must say, I'm having a difficult time understanding how the company can afford to sell these things at this price for profit. Besides the fact that in a blind test, they are nearly impossible to discern from much more expensive ribbons, I found that I preferred the Cascade in the
"$60,000 Ribbon Microphone Shootout
over many much more expensive microphones.
By the way, I did not, in fact, choose it over the upper-end Royers, but I did prefer it over the R101, hands down, at twice the price, on every source. For those doubters, I challenge you to "play the game" on that shootout without cheating (looking at which mics are which), rating the sound of each from 1-10 on your own piece of paper.
But as I said, instead of getting into the area that has already been beaten to death, there are some things I'd like to bring to light for those who are considering purchasing a pair (or one) of these mics...
First of all, they do not feel cheap! They are big and heavy. Mine weighed in at roughly
1.4 pounds
each! That's right! I said 1.4 POUNDS! (That's 0.64 kg for you civilized folks.) Mine came with a blumlein bar that weighs roughly a little more than half what the mic weighs (I didn't actually weigh the bar), which also seems quite substantial.
Now the pair I bought were from Cascade's B-stock; the case had a chipped corner, and the mics were an older model, with the basket being flat on the front, round on the back. I asked the seller to describe the difference in sound, front-to-back, due to the basket shape difference. He suggested the basket did not change the sound. I had my doubts, and when they arrived, I did find a noticeable difference between front and back; now whether it was from the cage shape or not, I don't really know. But this was my experience...
Using a True Systems Precision 8 preamp, I had a very clean signal path for testing. With the mics side by side, the front of both facing me, I could not hear any difference between the two mics
at all
. They seemed matched quite nicely. When I turned one around backward, I could most definitely hear the difference. Comparatively, the front of the mic seems to accentuate the low end (~150 Hz), whereas the rear seems to accentuate the low mids (~350 Hz). At first, I thought the high end was also affected, but after continuing to listen, I have decided that the difference in the upper range was not noticeably affected.
I have not measured these responses, so don't take those frequency points as accurate, but my in-ear test seems to point toward this ballpark difference.
I would assume the newer models, using flat faces on both sides of the basket, would provide a closer audio match, front to rear.
Something else I noticed. I didn't think I'd care for these mics on vocals, due to the frequency roll-off that starts around 7K (rolling off fairly gently). Also, I found the mic does not like to be enclosed, when I tried to mic a grand piano under the hood. When I pulled it out and 3-4 ft away from the piano, it sounded beautiful; an attestment to the proximity effect ribbons are famous for. Contrary to this fact, I found that up close, the mic sounds pretty darned good on my (male) vocals, when I inserted a 100 Hz roll-off filter (no other E.Q. applied). The proximity effect seems to affect both low and high freqs. At a distance, my voice sounded round in the mid frequencies. At about 5 inches away (pop filter included for safety), the high end became much more prominent. So did the bass, of course, thus the filter. Perhaps not enough high end for in-your-face rock, but certainly capable for many projects in this manner. In a pinch, I'll bet one could tweak with E.Q. and have a pretty nice (soft) top end.
The shock mounts: These seem fairly decently made. The outer ring is metal. The inner piece is plastic, but appropriate for the use. The bands seem hefty enough. I don't care for the tightener. It's plastic and feels a bit under-designed for hanging these heavy microphones. They'll probably last a while, as long as I'm careful with them, but they do make me a bit nervous.
The last item: the case. If anyone was wondering where this company must have cut corners, it's the case. First off, the handle looks like metal, but it's plastic! How anyone could feel safe, toting around 5 pounds' worth of delicate microphones & accessories with a thin, plastic handle would be beyond me! The plastic handle is held in place by a couple of thin hinges. I cannot tell if the hinges are also metal-coated plastic, or just thin, cheap metal, but they definitely lack heft. These hinges are riveted to the case with small, chintsy rivets. The walls of the case are metal, but thin, and I'm not sure what's behind them to keep it's shape. Only time would tell if it would hold together, but I think I'm not going to chance it, personally. I will have to buy a more rugged case, especially if I have to do any traveling with this mic. Nevertheless, it may be okay for studio-only use; and it's still far better than a cardboard box.
In the end, most people are most interested in what's inside the case. My opinion: the contents seem
well-made. For this price, we can all afford to go buy a decent case for these fine instruments. Perhaps one day, the company will offer a nicer case for a bit more money.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
Built on the side of a hill, the 120 year old Trullo Mandorla has been extensively renovated to sympathetically combine the unique features of the original stone building with contemporary design. Wifi available.
The stylish and sophisticated interior ensures your stay is pampered. The beautiful restored stone, exquisite lighting, and luxurious bathrooms create a unique stay in a trullo. The trullo has 3 bedrooms sleeping up to 6, with 2 bathrooms, one of which is en suite. Staying at Trullo Mandorla means enjoying spacious and diverse external areas. This includes an external lounge which makes the most of the fantastic view of the sea and coastal plain and a fully equipped kitchen and dining area. On the olive terrace above the house the kidney shaped pool enjoys panoramic views.
Trullo Mandorla is situated 5 minutes drive from the sea and a few minutes from the nearby town of Fasano. It is in an excellent location for visiting the towns of Ostuni, Alberobello, and Cisternino.
Our first time in the south of Italy and wow, it was wonderful. The Trullo is completely fabulous with stunning views and every comfort and Jo the owner couldn't have been more helpful before we left for Italy with information about places to see and importantly - eat!
We flew into Bari and its about an hour drive to Fasano and then into the foothills to the property. Its not far though as that was my morning run and we walked into Fasano too.
The gardens are beautiful: olive trees on several terraces, almonds, figs, bay, oregano, basil, rosemary, oleander, lantana, bougainvillea, and much more. We spent most time relaxing on the terrace by the pool soaking in the views and the sun. The outside kitchen is something else, well equipped and made a perfect set for great evening meals.
And of Apuglia. Make sure you see Lecce, Egnazia, Ostuni, Polignano, eat the fava bean puree and turnip tops, have a meal in Savalletri, take in the lovely beaches at a Lido or by simply driving to the coast and pitching up practically anywhere.
The Trullo is in great spot - I can see why the owners chose it. There are many around but from what we saw very few have that stunning view or are finished to such a high standard. Brilliant.
A beautiful trullo. The outside 'lounge' area is especially stylish with panoramic views to the Ocean. A well equipped property with everything you might need for a special family holiday. The owners were very helpful with suggestions of places/restaurants to visit. Well placed for trips to the beach and the historic old towns of Puglia.
This is a spectacular renovation of a Trullo. We were a little unlucky the week we stayed and couldn't make full use of the outside spaces because the weather wasn't with us, but even so we managed to grab a little time to enjoy. The Trullo serves as a good base for the Puglia region and being able to visit beaches, towns and sights throughout the region. The accommodation is comfortable, clean and well equipped as well as having privacy and a good dose of peace and quiet - just what we were looking for.
We had the most amazing week at Trullo Mandorla. The location is breath-taking - set on the side of the hill surrounded by olive groves with the sea below. You can even look over the side of the pool and the sea is at eye-level! The outside eating and separate seating areas are inspired - we BBQ'd whenever possible, using the well equipped outdoor kitchen and we sat outside until late as everywhere was beautifully lit. The variety of local shops and grocers in Fasano meant we could shop like the Italians and avoid the usual queues at the supermarkets.
The pool area was spacious - the only slight downside was the size of the pool to accommodate our 3 exuberant children ( 2 teenagers and an 8 year old), but they enjoyed it and spent most of their time in it.
The interior has been tastefully fitted out with a modern kitchen, stylish bathrooms and comfy bedrooms with fluffy towels and crisp bedding. 2 of the bedrooms are under the Trullo cones, so it is very authentic.
Wifi was excellent and we could get great signal even by the pool - this went down really well with my oldest son!
Jo, Sarah and Nick were great to deal with-thanks for a fab holiday!
Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful Trullo. We loved the scale of the property and had breakfast everyday on the front terrace, lunch by the pool and dinner in the magnificent outdoor dining area. The views were magnificent and far reaching which made for spectacular sunsets. Our favourite daytime haunt was Lido Santos where the mood was relaxed and friendly and the food wonderfully fresh an simple. We treated ourselves to a night out at Ristorante Grotta Palazzese at Polignano. It was our first trip to Puglia and we will definitely return.
We enjoyed another wonderful stay this Trullo, and would highly recommend it to other guests.
Trullo Mandorla is ideally located for those who wish to enjoy the nearby sandy beaches and explore the undiscovered countryside of Puglia and the Valle d'Itria. It is situated 5 minutes drive from the sea and a few minutes from the nearby town of Fasano. It is in an excellent location for visiting the nearby towns of Ostuni, Alberobello 'the capital of the trullis', Martina Franca, Locorotondo, and Cisternino. It is less than an hour to the beautiful baroque town of Lecce and within easy access of both Bari and Brindisi airport.

Pembina Band of Chippewa Indians
Pembina Band of Chippewa Indians (Ojibwe: Aniibiminani-ziibiwininiwag) are a historical band of Chippewa (Ojibwe), originally living along the Red River of the North and its tributaries. Through the treaty process with the United States, the Pembina Band were settled on reservations in Minnesota and North Dakota. Some tribal members refusing settlement in North Dakota relocated northward and westward, some eventually settling in Montana.
The successors apparent of the Pembina Band are:
- Chippewa Cree Tribe of the Rocky Boys Indian Reservation (Montana) (in part);
- Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians of Montana (in full);
- Red Lake Band of Chippewa (Minnesota) (in part);
- Roseau River Anishinabe First Nation (Manitoba) (in full);
- Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians (North Dakota) (in full); and
- White Earth Band of Ojibwe (Minnesota) (in part).
The so-called Little Shell Pembina Band of North America, based in North Dakota, is a militia-type group made up of one family descended from the historical Little Shell Chippewa Band, mostly white militia members, and one Indonesian, who attempted a coup against the government of Fiji. It claims to be a successor apparent of the Pembina Band, but it is not recognized as a Native American tribe by the US federal government nor by North Dakota.

I HATE ESPN!!! As much as I hate *ichigan and nd!!! Even as much as bama and clemson!!! What terrible coverage, or better yet, one sided coverage supporting nd!!! Boom, game done...off we go!! No trophy coverage or announcement of MVP's. OSU has a great drive...so? nd has a drive...blow up the screen...The irish are alive!!! If I saw Kelly on the screen one more time I was going to throw a hammer through the TV! State can't get a brake. What a wonderful season. Thanks Bucks. Thanks Coach Meyer. Thanks Seniors and other players going pro.
CONGRATS TO JOEY!! WELL DESERVED AND EXPECTED FOR ONE OF AMERICA'S BEST! But I still HATE ESPN.
Skyline is NOT chili! It is junk! Keep that crap down south. It is at least not welcome north of route 30, let alone north of Columbus.
Yes, Tiffin Columbian did have baseball then because I played football and baseball with Chuck. Great catcher that had scouts at most games to see him play. Bo got to him first.
Heater is the one and only one for The Ohio State University. His resume from high school to college is simply outstanding. Shocked that Coach Meyer has not brought Chuck on staff by now. Bring in Coach Heater and success will continue.
Say it isn't so Urban; Say it isn't so!!!
Curry is a self-proclaiming PUNK. How many players feel the need to pound their own chest after every jump shot and layup they make.
Explain this to me. After what GS #12 (don't know his name and don't care) did to LeBron on that "hard" foul, why was he still standing at the end of the game. Someone, anyone from the Cavs should have knocked his block off! The greatest player in the game today gets knocked out of bounds like that, cuts his head and NO ONE, I mean NO ONE gets even before the game is over!! It would have helped me deal with the defeat a lot better if #12 had gotten flatten at some point last night!!
"...Originally committed to cincinnati." Isn't that located in kentucky!?
Would love to see you in a BUCKEYE UNIFORM soon young man.
GREAT NEWS!! So glad for Braxton. Can hardly wait to see what Coach Meyer and his offensive staff have in mind for the 2015 starting lineup. With three great ATHLETES at the QB position I am excited to see who lines up where.
Enough of this "off season" talk! Let's get to the "small house" and have it out already! I am so ready to see Coach Meyer and THE OHIO STATE BUCKEYES kick Hairball's a$$. My dislike of this *ichigan clown grows day by day! So looking forward to another 4-5 years of kicking *ichigan up and down the field until they fire this clown too! 1) RichRod, 2) Choke 3) Hairball 4) Next Idiot Up!!
Question: Did I miss the College Football National Championship Sports Illustrated issue and offer? I did see the Super Bowl New England offer, but never saw the Ohio State National Championship offer. What's up with that!?
What a great interview. I had the same thing happen to me at a small college in Ohio. There was an offensive coordinator who rode my back for an entire season. It lead to a blow up on the practice field one day, which really sealed my fate at that school. At the end of that season I walked away from a sport I really enjoyed, stayed in college and got my degree. I went on to be a junior high and eventually a high school coach in both football and basketball. I always made it my point to care for each and every boy who played for me, always putting their development and enjoyment of the game before victory. I have never seen nor heard from that college coach, but now that I am retired, many of my former players still contact me to express their appreciation of the short time we spent together as coach and athlete. I guess I did learn a lesson from that college coach...how NOT to treat people. I often thing of my own playing career and wish it had turned out different, but I would not trade my career in education and coaching for anything. For that, I am thankful everyday and miss it more that my own playing days.
I am new to this fine website, but have you always been so stupid m man? You are one arrogant son of a gun. Tell me, isn't there a ttun website you can go to and be a goof there?
John Havlicek!!!! YESIREE!!! NO Jerry Lucas....REALLY!! 1 season does not a great Buckeye make...so Conley and Oden need to go. Definitely replace with Jimmy Jackson and Luke Witte. Funderburke...REALLY!? Is that for his time at OSU or IU? If OSU was not your first pick...off you go! That means that Alan Hornyak is also an OSU first teamer! In the words of Jimmy Crum..."That shot came down with ice icicles on it! How About That!!"

Send Four Corners back to the Arctic to explain
Andrew Bolt
–, Friday, April, 27, 2012, (8:54am)
Four Corners, 2008:
MARIAN WILKINSON: If you want to see climate change happening before your eyes, scientists will tell you, go to the ends of the earth, and that is why we are here in the Arctic Circle…
DR TED SCAMBOS, NATIONAL SNOW AND ICE DATA CENTER USA: What you have to remember is that even three or four years ago the scientific community was saying, this is an emergency, this is something serious. We could have an ice-free Arctic by the year 2070, by the year 2080. In the last few years those predictions have come way, way in towards the present and now we're saying maybe 2030, maybe 2020. There's a group that makes a very strong case that in 2012 or 13 we'll have an ice-free Arctic, as soon as that.
Have Your Say
The ABC doesn't have to be sent all the way to the Arctic Ocean.....Siberia will do.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (09:05am)
Fri 27 Apr 12 (11:25am)
Apparently we have a very big salt mine starting in the NT - in the desert South East of Alice, where it gets very hot in summer and very cold in winter. Thus the ABC could have the best of both worlds - global warming in summer and global cooling in winter. I vote they have an extended (permanent) investigative visit.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (01:28pm)
Dave, Dave. You're not still falling for this furphy, are you ? The extent of the ice is irrelevant, what we are interested in is the volume of the ice that is there. Axiomatically, if you have less but it is scattered over the same area, you still have less.
Amazingly, Andrew has neglected to mention that the volume of the ice in the Arctic has been diminishing by a steady 5% per decade since the 1950s. Because you are never going to see this information here, you will surely be keen to check out the following reference Has-Arctic-sea-ice-recovered.
When you have read this, you might like to ask Andrew why he goes out of his way to cherry pick his data.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (02:25pm)
Hah Newchum links to 'skeptical' science. Not like that site has a history of completely ignoring skeptics and filtering out all evidence that contradicts the AGW scam or anything.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (02:31pm)
Ol' Dave, Newchum is obviously perplexed by the science of John Cook's mischief; check out JoNova's post today.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (03:34pm)
Ahem, sorry. Here is the other site /climatechange/the-decline-of-arctic-sea-ice/
Damn dyslexic typing fingers.
One last point about whether we should be talking about extent of the sea ice, as in area covered, or volume. Here is a relatively simple experiment. Find some six year old twins who both like peanut butter (yes, yes, and who are not allergic to peanuts, big picture here, people). Get two pieces of toast, and cover the first completely with 1 cm thick peanut butter, and the other piece will also be covered completely but with 1mm thick of the spread. Give the twins one piece each, and then try to explain the twin who is currently screaming blue murder that, according to the Andrew Bolt theory, he or she has received exactly the equivalent piece as did their sibling.
Good luck.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:35pm)
Actual cited facts on the Bolt Blog? I'm shocked.
You're wasting your time though Newchum. Do you really think the people here understand terms like "volume" and "density". Most didn't even get out of high-school.
Look at MattR here:

Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:39pm)
Newchum, I would like to know why the 'warmists' have made such an issue of 'ice extent' over the years when you say it is unimportant.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (05:15pm)
Hey, ancient mariner
I have no idea why most of the people on either the warmest or the nay saying sides do anything, so I can't help you there. If you watched the not-thought-provoking program on the ABC last night featuring Minchen and Ms Rose, you would have been as disappointed as I was. If you and I had taken part instead, we surely would have started by defining our terms, ie - this is how we define warming and these are the sources that we will accept as accurate, and so we will use their figures. Alas. At the end of the program, they, Minchen and Rose, were still using different sources for their figures and so kept contradicting each other. They got nowhere. If Ms Rose is the brightest person on the horizon for the warmists, we are surely doomed, and Michen appeared to spend most of his time contemplating the phrase 'sleeping with the enemy'.
amcoz - JoNova ? Really ? Ah, well. I envy your fact free existence.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (05:27pm)
Mr Logic and newchum. Can you explain why the 'official' data starts in 1979, but in IPCC FAR WG1 a sharp rise from 1974 to 1979 has been left out? What would happen to the meme if that was included?
Sorry, it is data from the climate bible, so I thought I'd ask.

ahahah, "official" data. IPPC "FAR" WG1. You don't even know the title.
When you're having a grown up discussion you need things called citations and references. We don't just take your word for things Tim. We don't just believe a "rise" occurred because you state it.

Unlike you, I have a full-time job that requires quite a lot of my attention to perform well and generate an income for myself. Bolt has posted the evidence you ask for, newchum posted 'evidence' from a highly debunked website. A website that has pushed the discredited warmist ideology for years now.
I find it funny that you request evidence from people. Your entire modus operandi is personal attacks.
amcoz - JoNova ? Really ? Ah, well. I envy your fact free existence.
So posting links to an extremely biased, completely discredited and chronically wrong site 'skeptical' science is OK, but posting Jo Nova who routinely presents the evidence as it is, is no good for you?

This is a joke post right? YOU ask for 'citations and references' and your only link is to a graph showing warming from the late 70s?
Shall we make a .gif that details the world temperature 1000, 2000, and 10,000 years ago? Or shall we just keep cherry picking and demanding an 'adult' discussion whislt behaving like my toddler son?

You misspelled "educated" (would have also accepted "my betters").
After all, they wouldn't accept a single graph as a premise, they would ask questions on such important areas such as volume and density, lost on a simple mind like yours.
Better not to speak, just enjoying the life science. Or perhaps you hope for a return to the dark ages, where you can deny climate change and evolution more easily

Fake Mr Logic, they may be your betters, but they are not really any good anyway. They probably have really cool and original nicknames for posting on blogs rather than just being a pathetic hijacker.
You do know that the volume/density furphy as just that. They do not have sufficient data to actually prove their point (what a surprise) they have based their historicals on models. This group can peer review till the cows come home, they have corrupted the data and excluded information to obtain their results. Important questions have been asked for the last decade, and these guys have done everything they could to avoid answering.

Mr Illogical:
- Prove that human emissions are causing the world to warm
- Prove that this warming is noticable and dangerous
- Prove that it is cheaper and more efficient to mitigage than to adapt.
Feel free to do that, you don't need to pretend to be smart by 'laughing' at people (you don't seem to realise that you just make yourself look like a fool), all you need to do is prove it.
The fact remains, you and your warmist religion ilk simply haven't done so. That is why your religion is dying, that is why you are fast becoming laughingstocks.
You demand evidence, why is it that you cannot present your own (hint: someone that's actually proven).
The fraudster warmists are getting cleverer now - they are concentrating on remote areas where the everyday person is highly unlikely to visit and see the truth!
Fri 27 Apr 12 (09:25am)
Fri 27 Apr 12 (11:16am)
Scott, I wonder if any of the endangered species listed here in Australia (and other countries) are using that same eco-politics-parameter, ie, selecting species in remote areas whose status cannot be verified by the public. Many listed species here are in such habitats.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (12:52pm)
Not entirely true. The National Snow and Ice Data Center publishes satellite pictures of the Arctic each day, with a map and a chart each showing average and current ice cover.
Their charts showing the average amount of ice to be in serious decline are highly misleading because they commence when the arctic ice was at the peak of an increase/decrease cycle in 1978 when the satellite records became avaiable.
NSDIC charts show that in March 1979 the area of snow and ice was slightly less than 16.5 million square kilometres, which slowly declined until 2006 when it bottomed out at slightly less than 14.5 square kilometres. The trend is now upwards, with around 15.25 million square kilometres present in March 2012.
The most likely outcome will be that satellite records over around a century will show that the upper and lower limits of ice in the Arctic will be around 16.5 and 14.25 million square kilometres respectively.
A final inconvenient truth for the global warming alarmists is the record of the North West passage which shows thaton a few occasions there has been considerably less ice in the Arctic than even in 2006 when the alarmists were predicting that the Arctic ice would be gone in a couple of decades.
The alarmists also told us about severe droughts in Australia, and in 2000 we were told that the Maldives would be under water in 10 years. Twelve years later they are still there!
Fri 27 Apr 12 (01:22pm)
The arctic melts in the summer and builds up in the winter, duh!
Fri 27 Apr 12 (02:06pm)
Did anyone watch the program "I can change your mind about the climate" followed by Q&A;last night?
It was a load of propaganda trying to get us who deny AGW to reach a middle ground with the alarmists in order to push forward with the warmist agenda. I was disappointed with Nick Minchin, who ended up basically conceding to the warmists by the end of the program.
Their shock tactics is clearly not working. It is time the governments stopped giving taxpayer's money to them.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (09:27am)
They're not looking at the Arctic because of all the warm water is now busy melting the South Pole as the SMH reveals.It's hard work spinning global warming alarmism. Give 'em a month and some new study will magically appear showing the North Pole is now in trouble.
But is anyone listening?

Move along! Move along! Nothing to see here!
Quick change the predictions....
Fri 27 Apr 12 (10:58am)
I may be wrong but if the warm seas was the answer wouldn't our smart scientists notice the lower portion melting prior to the top of the ice pack.It it was warm atmosphere the melt would be on the top less on the base.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (11:54am)
Its only Bolt not listening mate, the rest of the world has moved on. If they arent acting strongly enough its economical reasons, not because they dont accept it.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (12:10pm)
What they forget to tell you is that the 'warm' water is from an underground Antarctic valcano and that ice sheets are actually thickening elsewhere. Smoke and mirrors. They only take out of these reports what they can alarm people with - even if they leave the most important facts out!
Fri 27 Apr 12 (12:26pm)
Indeed Antarctia has been so busy working up a sweat that sea ice extent has been running above average all summer.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (05:24pm)
The recovery of the Artic ice is due to allthose solar panels and wind farms. Next Christmas, there'll be even more ice since our carbon tax will have been operating for several months by then!
I wonder what Marion Wilkinson would have said if she had sighted a gigantic ice berg floating nearby? Lets go back in time..
A hundred years to the week- actually a few weeks back now- and look at what happened to a certain ship.. From a Titanic presumption
"Across the heaving ocean, the winter of 1911–12 had been so unseasonably warm that Greenland glaciers had calved a massive, bobbing jam of floating ice — flat slabs, miscellaneous chunks, and mountainous icebergs — three to eight miles in width and 55 miles long. This was not just a collection of overgrown refrigerator cubes. An iceberg is really a derelict island, so compacted into a rock-hard mass that demolishing even a medium-sized berg would require 1,900 tons of TNT. In the past, ships had collided — usually, two to six times a year — with ice off Newfoundland and the Grand Banks. "
What would warmists make of this today? A presumption indeed. The ship doing the remembrance voyage wasn't involved in any ice berg sightings that I recall.. not a one or the climatic media would have been screaming icy cube cliches. Funny that given what sunk the Titanic.. Am I getting warm?
Or do they just go with the Arctic floe..

Your rebuttal to the science is ....the Titanic story?
Fri 27 Apr 12 (11:56am)
You do understand dont you, that the reason there are no icebergs seen here anymore is because the bergs that carve off have to travel further now to this point and melt before they get there??!!
Fri 27 Apr 12 (02:45pm)

Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:17pm)
No RossC once again you are wrong, the icebergs don't have to travel any further than they ever have.
The actual reason that no icebergs were seen this time around is that icebergs sightings are rare at the location that the Titanic was hit and 1912 was a particularly cold winter.
From this article;
"As far as is known using dead-reckoning navigation, Titanic was on course. Figure 2 shows the point of collision was at the southern limit of the Labrador Current. Icebergs melt as they move south and most are totally melted or very small at this latitude. Therefore it's an area the crew wouldn't expect icebergs, especially one large enough to sink them.
Why did such a large iceberg get that far south in 1912? Study of the weather patterns provide explanation. Media reports tell the story and are all summarized in this statement:
The 1912 United States cold wave (also called 1912 cold air outbreak) remains one of the coldest winters yet to occur over the northern United States."
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:30pm)
'One should always stick to what one knows best!'
Why don't you take your own advice
Seeing the Arctic Ice tap the "Normal" line on this chart must make some people pretty unhappy . Especially those who recently revised the Algorithm for the operation of this chart.

Fri 27 Apr 12 (11:43am)
More computer fiddling, anything to preserve the AGW industry's religious faith in global warming.
One would think that increasing northern hemisphere sea ice would be GOOD news for the world.
Not so as the AGW industry uses rent seeking "scientists" to ensure GOOD NEWS is deiberately disguised.
Surely there is some legal recourse to bring this destructive, deceitful industry into line?
The scientician's name is seriously… SCAMbos? Sheesh.

The thought of all that CO2 blasting from your nostrils as you vent your frustration warms the cockles of my heart.
Is that the kind of warming CO2 is supposed to cause?
Fri 27 Apr 12 (12:05pm)
This is the classic comment that undermines you. If you have an issue with Andrews' perspective then state your case.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (12:40pm)
Extent data is rather "new", only 30+ years of it, so it is really hard for all these predictions to be taken seriously, but climate science is all about making bold extrapolations from barely any data.
Ice volume data is just about non-existent, and there certainly isn't any accurate historical record.
Your question shows your ignorance rather than that of your intended target.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (12:58pm)
And the prediction that the arctic sea ice area of extent would return to normal in 2012 is where in the Warmist Blogosphere or pseudoscientific literature?
If the sea ice volume is so revealing of imminent thermageddon - where is your link to the devasting physical evidence that the arctic ice, while currently sitting in the normal range for area is in fact alarmingly thin?
So all you have offered is an unsupported claim followed by an ad-hominen attack, and we are supposed to take you seriously?
You should ask yourself - what does it mean when the physical facts do not match the predictions of the ideology that I have invested so much time, belief and emotion into?
The honest answer to that question will shake your world.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (03:10pm)
Here it is. This explains the diffence between extent and volume of sea ice and why volume is far more important.
ExWarmist, for someone who writes a large post you don't have much to say.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:08pm)
Chas - asking questions is a valid activity, or are you out of practice with asking questions now that you have all the answers?
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:15pm)
Chas wrote: "Here it is. This explains the diffence between extent and volume of sea ice and why volume is far more important."
And if you bothered reading you'd find that the "volume data" isn't data, it is the output of a model. The model is based on what the modeller expects volumes would be like, given the extent data and their perceptions of the impact of global warming.
Please don't try to masquerade this as science.

Chas replied to wheresmyak47 Fri 27 Apr 12 (03:10pm)
Ice is not being melted by atmospheric "global warming", it is melting from underneath from warmer ocean currents ... perfectly naturally moving in from the equatorial areas warmed up some time ago. Broaden your narrow reading base to on-line sites that present the truth, then you will understand how water retains heat for longer than the atmosphere and what mechanisms cool it back down again.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:28pm)
Chas, that data you linked to is 3 years out of date. Shows nothing.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (05:54pm)
Harry, streetcred and ad, read what I wrote. I said that this link explains the difference. If I wanted to claim that as evidence I would have.
So what? What is the problem here? It would be great if it all melted, as it does each summer right across Siberia and Canada. You would think there was an imminent disaster! No cities are drowned every summer. The Polar bears sit on the dirt and wait because they cannot sneak up on anyone. The arctic is 20C in summer and all the ice melts. Wonderful! Massive herds and flocks head North. The seas are navigable. The occasional hot summer and it melts more. Who is whipping up this fear of a place they have never been and which does not matter at all to humans? The eskimos love ice the way Australians love desert.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (10:08am)

Fri 27 Apr 12 (11:58am)
Yep another person who does not know the basics of physics but yet determines that melting snow in Siberia has ANYTHING to do with rising sea levels!!

Are you for real?
Sorry your lunatic ramblings make no sense, then again nothing else the alarmists dream up does either.
On this topic,
QandA last night:
I found it a little strange that the BOM have
known about a worrying warming trend during the 50's through the 80's and only told the public about it after 2000.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (10:12am)
NO Arctic Icecap by 2011 says Tim Flannery:
2006: At the trajectory set by the new rate of melt, however, there will be no Arctic icecap in the next five to 15 years.
James Hanson(sic), director of NASA's Goddard Institute, arguably the world authority on climate change, predicts we have just a decade to avert a 25-metre rise of the sea!
Flannery's crystal ball was a little faulty…
Hansen's is not looking good with with 3 & half years to go…

Fat chance.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (10:37am)
Andrew, it is interesting to read the disclaimers in CSIRO climate prediction reports (see below for one such disclaimer) never repeated in the alarmism messages announced to the MSM.I like the phrase "real physical processes that are not fully understood". And I thought the science was settled.
The projections in this report are based on results from computer models that involve simplifications of real physical processes that are not fully understood. Accordingly, no responsibility will be accepted by CSIRO for the accuracy of the projections inferred from this
report or for any person's interpretations, conclusions or actions based on this information.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (10:46am)
The graph shows that the ice cover might be getting back to what is considered normal but what about the thickness.
The Scientists tell us that the actual volume of ice is sigfnicantly less than it was.
Any way NASA begs to differ Bolty; but I think you know that.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (10:58am)
Fri 27 Apr 12 (05:17pm)
Above 80N it's running at -19C. That's more than cold enough to keep the ice embiggenned a while!

No ice means no ice, you know ice free. Bone dry land or liquid ocean without any frozen cap.
If you guys want to avoid looking silly, try not to exaggerate.
Or just get a thicker hide and learn to handle rejection a lot better because it is only going to get worse for you.
Don`t you people get it. Climate change in the Artic IShappening. It is getting COLDER.

More outdated graphs from Bolt and gang. Go to a reputable source (i.e every national scientific organisation in the world!!) and you will quickly find that the debate on anthropogenic global warming is finished!! The only örganisations" denying it is happening are "think-tanks"like Institute of Public Affairs. Bolt's lemmings need to ask if you are against scientists or just against Gillard's Carbon Tax?? Are you denigrating thousands and thousands of professional scientists because you don't like Labor's red headed leader?? That's what it seems to me!

(i.e every national scientific organisation in the world!!)
Lies, again. Your spittle-flecked rants grow tiresome and simply harden people's resolve.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (02:43pm)
Re your comment "More outdated graphs from Bolt and gang.".
May I suggest that you check here Official NSIDC Chart at the top of the Official NSIDC Page
Whilst there you may like to check the chart date. Thursday, April 26, 2012
Fri 27 Apr 12 (02:45pm)
Dude, it isn't over....
You can't prove your link at all. You claim its CO2. Your correlation with the temperatures and CO2 is an incredibly weak correlation.
There has to be something more than CO2.
It isn't the job of a sceptic to disprove your science at the start but for the proponent to prove it at the start. I'm not sold on it when the models are wrong and everything is generally out. And now you rely on ice volume data. I doubt that even correlates with the CO2 levels.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (02:46pm)
The above graph is based on current, official data from the NSIDC.
So your assertion
More outdated graphs from Bolt and gang. Go to a reputable source (i.e every national scientific organisation in the world!!)
is simply wrong.
For a satellite image of the arctic ice from NSIDC go here
Looks like there is a lot of ice at the north pole.
BTW: The essence of the Warmist-Skeptic debate is to the extent of climate sensitivity to CO2 and the size and direction (+ve/-ve) of feedbacks. If you haven't worked out that climate sensitivity and feedbacks are poorly understood by the Warmists (and everyone else - as the science is very young...) and that the physical evidence of feedbacks from the CERES and ERBE satellites leans strongly towards net negative feedbacks and hence demonstrating low climate sensitivity to CO2 in contradistinction to the Climate models that assume that feedbacks are strongly net positive, then you need to do some actual work instead of spouting tired adhoms and assuming that the scientific debate is over.
The eco-nazi's just can't help themselves, lying comes as naturally to them as it does to, well, our much loved Prime Minister.
Anna Rose has an article front page on the ABC website that is full of the usual bunk, including an attempt to paint climate change alarmism as being accepted by the overwhelming majority view;
"He'd already secured one of the remaining few high-profile climate sceptics in Australia"
Elsewhere in the taxpayer funded Department of Climate Propaganda their radio arm is busy reporting that the usual subjects (BoM, CSIRO, Dept of CC) have co-authored a study that once again "proves" that global warming is real because salinity levels in the oceans are rising.
I would have thought that if ice caps were melting at the rate we are told they are that all that freshwater being released into the ocean would cause a drop in salinity but then, what do I know.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (11:56am)
You do this almost every year around this time Andrew. You wait til a brief point where this year's sea ice almost approaches the average, and then you write this article, or link to someone who writes such an article.
And every time, sea ice again plunges down to near record lows by mid-north hemisphere-summer/autumn.
And of course the trend over many years is unambiguously downward, regardless of the monthly or even yearly wiggles.
Is this what skeptics are reduced to?
Fri 27 Apr 12 (12:09pm)
I spend as much as 8 days every month in Anchorage as a result of my work commitments (airline pilot). Anchorage has just had a record year of snowfall. Alyeska ski resort still has 166 inches (yes you read that correctly.... inches) of snow base at the top of the mountain as of today's date (AEST 27th April). On the flight back we travelled north via Russian airspace and down thru Mongolia to avoid the headwinds. Total flight time 10 hrs 15 minutes of which 6+hrs was spent over frozen landscape.
From what I visually record every month at work this global warming story concerning the Arctic is plain bullshit.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (12:29pm)
Fri 27 Apr 12 (03:37pm)
The world's climate scientists, or a single airline pilot looking out the window? hmmm....
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:16pm)
Yeah but if your windscreen had a lens controlled by a computer model it could nip a bit off the icescape here and tuck a bit off there and before you know it, you'd be looking at nothing but empty sea.
That's how it works in the Dept of Climate Change laboratory anyway.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:23pm)
Since Climategate proved conclusively that climate scientists can be frauds, I'll give priority to the airline pilot.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:36pm)
Steve, At least the pilot has had a look. Most of the climate scientists don't appear to have looked up from their computer screens for the last 10 years, that's why they have to keep making adjustments!The climate is not following their script.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (04:46pm)
No Steve, the choice is the world's climate models or real world observations.
I would go with real world observations over computer models everytime. But then, I understand the technology and don't worship anyone who claims to be a 'scientist'.
Fri 27 Apr 12 (06:29pm)
The world's climate scientists
The usual broad generalization from a mindless warming fanatic.
Btw many of these have their reputations shot to pieces with their predictions continuing to fail the test of time.

What a mess:
''We know that Childress doesn't have our backs, so why should we have his?''
I haven't heard anything like this coming from our locker room, but I wouldn't be surprised if it comes up soon. Especially if we lose more games.

He's absolutey horrendous. They should fire him now.

Hi - my website has a white background where I am using the newsletter signup widget, so my visitors are a little confused as to where to enter their name & address (the signup fields blend into the background).
Is there a way to customize the appearance of the signup fields? The ideal solution would be to have a thin black border around each field, but a good alternative would be to have the background color of the fields be something other than white.
My site is http://www.edensurgical.com.
Thank you!

Old Castle by postapocalypsiaWatch
©2012-2016 postapocalypsia
This is a castle I visited on the Austrian - Czech border. I have done some colour grading and digital fiddling to enhance the composition, but it's pretty close to reality.
Certainly not a new work, but, all the same, I like it! An old Rhenan -like castle ?
is it allowed to go inside the castle?
Yes - unfortunately it was closed at the time I was there
great photo
If you would like, post your photo on my FB page and I will share your photo.
Have a nice day!
If you would like, post your photo on my FB page and I will share your photo.
Have a nice day!
what a great shot!
I love this vintage look you gave it.
I tweaked the saturation a little and dropped a faint parchment effect over the top.
Glad you like it
Like your gallery, but it had suffered up to this point by a lack of castles.
...just a shame I live on the other side of the world to all the castles I guess
It looks really good. I like it.
Don't you just love the ancient ruins of the old world? When I visited Germany & Austria, the age of the place simply oozed out of the rocks, bricks, and mortar. Great photograph!
Wow! We do not have anything like that here!
Well...we have some Native American mounds and cave dwellings...but nothing like this.
Nice reference for another painting?
Well...we have some Native American mounds and cave dwellings...but nothing like this.
Nice reference for another painting?
Yes, there may be some painting idea to hatch from this - it is just not quite formed yet.
Thanks for the feedback
Thanks for the feedback
cool nice own do youknow something about the castle....
No, I know nothing about the castle except that I walked through the area and stopped to look. I think it is normally open for visitors but was shut on the day I was there. It sure made for a good subject to photograph though!
I second -empe13 statement.
Burg Hardegg! awesome edit - like straight out of a fairytale (with a dark side)!
I knew nothing of Hardegg until I walked into it. The castle was a great surprise! The whole area looked like fairytale material to me, coming from the other side of the world.
very nice!
Beautiful job!
your photo and enhancements combined nicely for a very beautiful image
Thank you It was a beautiful but haunted looking location. I guess the dull day made it seem more so.
Really beautiful image, I love the "retrò" look
Great place also
Great place also
Thank you kindly - it is a very interesting place. I hope the enhancements I made reflect the way I felt about the location.
Wow, this looks great!
Amazing picture

Ah, nice.. Hardegg castle, part of Austria's smallest city. I've been there years ago. It's beautiful. Your photo captures the atmosphere of this place very well. Great work.
I visited Hardegg as part of a walking trip through the forests from the Czech side. It was beautiful even on a cold overcast day - very moody. We have no architecture or scenery like this at home, so I soaked it up with great enthusiasm!
Thanks for the comments
Thanks for the comments
Stark, lonely, impressive.

A Local Outlook - Local Government ICT Forecast to 2016-2017
- February 2013
- Region: United Kingdom
- 31 Pages
- Kable
- Apple
- CandW
- Eircom
- Kcom
- MDNX Enterprise Services
- Thales
This report summarizes the status of the UK Local Government ICT market in 2016-17, and anticipates developments over this five year period.
This overview of the market for ICT goods and services across the UK public sector is intended both for those currently working with public sector clients, and those considering this market for the first time.
Introduction and Landscape
This report provides detailed data and analysis on the UK local government ICT market, forecasting to 2016-17. It provides both tactical and strategic users insights into the usage of ICT across the local government sector.
Bringing together Kable's research, modeling and analysis expertise in order to develop uniquely detailed market data. Allowing companies to identify the market dynamics that account for the ICT market and which categories and segments will see growth in the coming years.
Key Features and Benefits
This report aims to provide an understanding of the size of the local government ICT market, suppliers anticipate change and support demand planning by outlining the key trends and investment priorities will impact future spend.
The geographic scope of this report includes all regions of the UK period from 2011-12 to 2016-17. The report focuses primarily on local authorities, but also covers local spend by fire and rescue services.
Key Market Issues
- Gain insight into the public sector local government ICT market in the UK.
- Gain knowledge on the developments in the UK local government ICT market over a five year period to 2016-17.
- Provides you forecasts for ICT spending across hardware, software, services, communications and staff, which include spending on ICT outsourcing and ICT elements of outsourced business processes.
- The ICT spending associated with ICT-intensive business process outsourcing is included in the forecasts.
Key Highlights
Kable expects that local government ICT expenditure will grow from £3.18bn in 2011 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of just 0.7% for 2016-17. While this suggests flat growth, it masks significant changes at the product and services level.
The shift in the balance of expenditure from the hardware and communications categories to services will continue, with spending on the latter expected to grow from 1bn to £1.3bn by 2016. This will be driven by growth in three key areas: business process outsourcing, managed communications and software as a service (SaaS). SHOW LESS READ MORE >

I don't think so...it is funny to see that the majority of the fraudulent companies have the headquarters in USA and they ripoff freely and nothing happens. One of them is Vista Print and I can continue with a list that can cover the Broadway in NY. I was charged $14.95 for a purchase I have not made and trying to get back this small amount...I was told that there is nothing that can be done. It is my fault I have used the website for online shopping. I have to spend time, frustrating conversations with bank representatives and another $400 for phone calls, gas, etc. The answer I get is...it's only $14.95...don't even bother...VistaPrint steals money from credit cards on a daily basis from thousands of users and nothing happnes. That's a nice profit.
If anyone has an idea on how to create a website and how to start stealing money legally just let me know. Maybe we can write a new book "Stealing leggally on the web for Dummies". Apparently it can be done in U.S.A. easier than anywhere in the world. And if you get caught... nothing happens... because you have the Terms of Use on the bottom of your site and it exonerates you from anything. Amazing...
