The disease paid a toll financially and shortly after her death, I, like many others received information from CCA in the mail to receive a "no interest" credit card. I did not blindly call the number right away. I took the time to read all of the information provided.
Christmas was not far away and I figured that these catalog purchases could provide gifts for my children and other family members that I would not otherwise be able to provide.
I called the number for more information and received what seemed to be a very helpful service rep.
The hell began. I had given information to get things started, but did so knowing that I could cancel at any time within 10 days. Nearing the end of the 10 days, I decided not to continue membership. Financially, I was not in a position to pay the 200.00 membership fee. The day before thanksgiving, I attempted to call several times and kept receiving messages saying that their phone lines were down and to call back later. I became very nervous at this point.
Later that night I was reviewing my bank statements on line and I noticed that the 200.00 membership activation fee had already been withdrawn from my bank account. Yep, I was not able to cancel my account and now they have withdrawn money from my account before my free trial had ended. I had been scammed.
Needless to say, the check bounced and I received a 35.00 NSF fee from my bank. I called CCA and informed them that I wanted to cancel and that they had attempted to take money out of my account earlier than agreed. They blamed this mistake on my bank, saying that my bank should not have put it through. I was also told that it was withdrawn early because the following day was a holiday. Of course if you read there very own disclosures they include holidays and weekends in their free trial, so why the need to put it in early. I was then told that they would cut the member fee to 99.00 and waive the speedy service fee of 49.00 (approx). They also said that to pay for the 35.00 fee from the bank they would send an extra 200.00 voucher good towards any purchase. thats a laugh!
Entering into December, I was still worried about providing for my kids for Christmas, this their first Christmas without their mother. I figured that the 200.00 voucher would more than cover the bank charge. I then wanted a gurantee that catalogs would be received in plenty of time for Christmas. I was told that I would have them by the 14th of December 2007. My account was then debited the 99.00, but one catch. I NEVER RECEIVED THE CATALOGS! Catalogs that I was depending on for gifts. I fealt so bad for my kids. The 99.00 member fee could have went towards Christmas, but instead I had nothing, not even the catalogs. I became incensed, irate!
Christmas had passed and I was a week into January and still no catalogs. I made a phone call to the company and went through all the BS to finally talk with someone (by the way. if you plan on calling, designate 35 to 45 minutes of your day. there are no quick answers to your question. everything is read from a script from employees that have not been there long, and yes you have to listen to the entire script sometimes several times in the same call depending on how many people you have to filter through. it is absolutley nerve racking! I attempted again to cancel my membership, because I had received no catalogs. I just wanted to be done.
The supposed surpervisor I spoke with guranteed that my catalogs would be sent and received with 5-7 days and that he would include a voucher unlike most they send out of 200.00. A voucher that I would not need to send any money down just shipping and handling. This for all the problems I have had without receiving any services. I was also told that I could not cancel over the phone that I would have to do so in writing. I though this odd, because they were removing money from my bank account--early mind you without any written authorization.
3 weeks go by and still no catalog; what a nightmare. Im starting to feel like I cannot even cancel the account that I have made a huge mistake and that these scammers have my information. You see the information is given in a very tricky way. As soon as you have a complaint and need information you have to give them personal information including Full name, birth date (how many creditors ask for this with every call)SSN and bank information.
If you tell them that you will not give them this information, they will not go further and that your problem will go unresolved. Eventually, you give it to them, because how else am I able to cancel if I cant go any further in the call. I expressed my discontent with this loudly. I asked to go up the chain of command. I demanded to talk to someone higher in authority. The highest you can get is a floor manager who hears my complaint several times a day and could really care less.
I would contend that most people that call are complaining of the same things and that the floor manager or whoever they are, basically show up to work to handle these complaints all day. Another attempt to get the catalogs failed. I then faxed my cancellation letter of the benefits.
My account was debited 99.99 and 99.00 for the two special benefits that nobody would ever want in the first place. They know this. That is why everyone is set up with a free trial of these benefits. If you do not accept the free trial then you cannot go on in the process. And remember the information they are sending you is 8000 in credit and up to 1000.00 in cash with no interest. All you have to do is accept their free trial---so of course everyone does--I mean what can it hurt?
The free trial actually expires before you even get the catalogs, at least mine did. I was told that my free trial had expired and had never even received the catalogs to even benefit from any free trial---another laugher! Now I was being told that once again i would have to notify them in writing. Seems reasonable right? NO! The very people that have taken money out of my account early, broke promises as to when I would get the catologs and thus never received, put you through torture whenever you call, and consequently took more money out of my account to the tune of nearly 300.00 and will take another 99.00 out next month now have to be depended on to receive your letter and then cancel your account before they can remove any more money---once again laughable! all they have to say is that they never received your letter by mail or fax and now it your responsibility to go through whatever legal channels that they have not protected themselves against in your agreement, that you may never have received. They have caused me to bounce several checks that would have otherwise been covered had they not fraudulently debited my account.
You see this company is not in business to retain clients with legitiamte business practices. It is a corrupt company run by corrupt individuals that prey on those in a financial bind. It is a business built on how many people they can rook for 300-500 dollars and then be done with them and off to the next sucker.
I am not an attorney, but if I was, I would have a field day with their so called agreement. Remember, when they break the agreement--their own agreement, it can void the contract. It is time for a class action law suit going directly after CCA.
Obviously I could go on and on, but I will spend the rest of my efforts in recovering the money I have lost. I will get my bank involved and hopefully recover something. I will contact an attorney as well as other state channels. If anyone needs information from me or help. I would be glad to. email me below.

Gunman attacked two air bases in southwestern Pakistan, prompting a shoot-out with police.
Officials say they killed at least eight of the insurgents, who were reportedly armed with automatic weapons, grenades, and wearing suicide vests.
At least seven police were wounded in the attacks late on August 14.
Locals reported hearing explosions and gunfire at the Samungli air base used by the Pakistani Air Force, as well as at the Khalid Military Air Base in Balochistan's capital of Quetta.
The Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Balochistan, a massive region that borders both Afghanistan and Iran, is full of natural resources and has been the scene of a long-running separatist conflict that has killed thousands.
Pakistan has suffered several recent attacks on its airports.
In June, a Taliban attack killed 30 people at Karachi airport, and militants also fired at a plane in Peshawar.

Thread: Knowledge (monster lore)
Saturday, 2nd February, 2002, 01:27 PM #1
Knowledge (monster lore)
I need some help with how to make the Knowledge (monster lore)
work. In the Ravenloft book, they make the character select a specific type of monster (Knowledge [aberration]), and mention
that "these skills can be used to evaluate a character's knowledge of the habits or weaknesses of the chosen creature
type". Guess what?
They do not provide any DCs. They don't even mention a formula
with which you can make an appropiate DC.
Could anyone help with EXACTLY how this skill should work?Love will tear us apart

Making a Knowledge skill apply to one creature type alone seems awfully limiting to me. Consider that Knowledge (arcana) lets you know about all sorts of magic-related stuff, regardless of school, caster, class, and so on. But I don't have the Ravenloft book, so maybe it makes sense in that setting. Or maybe not.
Saturday, 2nd February, 2002, 01:44 PM #3
Maybe it could be divided simply into to seperate Knowledge skills.
Knowledge (monster lore), and Knowledge (necrology). Monster
lore would cover every creature except undead. This makes sense
for my campaign, as undead are quite common. But still, how would I set the DC? What exactly could a PC discover about a wight if he rolled a 16 on his Knowledge (necrology) skill?

It should be noted that previous print examples of "monster lore" skill have been specific to at least the level of monster type, if not more specific. Examples which spring to mind include Knowledge (undead) (mentioned in Defenders of the Faith) and Knowledge (illithid lore) (Psionics Handbook).
By that, I don't mean to imply that such is a good idea in general, which I think is a matter of taste. But if you're writing a book like Ravenloft, there's definitely something to be said for at least rough compatibility with WotC's published supplements.

Perhaps you should look under the Skill "Knowledge" in the PHB. I believe their are some DCs which might give you an idea.
I believe 10 was common knowledge (so rolling a 10 on a Knowledge(Necrology) Roll to determine the weakness of a vampire you would probably remember that they don`t like sunlight, that they don`t like wooden sticks through their heart (but who does?).
If you rolled higher (15) you might want to search for their crypt and so on...
(By the way, I could not use your example because I rolled low on my Knowledge(necrology) roll about Wights. Sorry. But I probably have to use it unskilled and can only know common knowledge, nothing more)
Oh, and if you don`t find it under the Skill Entries, you might look under Bardic Knowledge, it may be also there. I am not sure about it.
Saturday, 2nd February, 2002, 02:43 PM #6
Thanx for replies, I'll check the PHB for the Knowledge skill and Bardic Lore.

The guidelines for Knowledge skill DC's are:
10: really easy question
15: basic question
20-30: really tough questions
Obviously, they couldn't list examples for all possible knowledge skills, though I grant that in a more narrow discussion like the one we're talking about it would have been useful. In the case of Knowledge (undead) and wights, I might suggest these be applied something like:
10: Wights have a corrupting touch (duh, most undead do).
15: Wights touch is mildly energy-draining (i.e., imposes one negative level) and is fairly easy to recover from. Most such energy-draining attacks cause one to become undead if killed.
20: Those killed by wights become wights quite quickly thereafter, and it doesn't matter whether it's the negative levels that did you in.
25: Specifically, adventurers who survive the attack will have at least a 30-50% chance of recovering without magical aid (DC 14). Though many people forget the fact because of wights' more flamboyant powers, one should be wary of their excellent natural stealth.
These exact DC's obviously could all be debated, but are really meant only as examples.

Knowledge skills are work the same, so use the rules in the PHB. This is tough for DMs when Monster Lore comes into play. It can be hard to figure out what information is relevant and what the PCs needs to know. I do like how they limited the skill to only one type of creature.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Long story short, after 4 days of dialing the SAME 25 people over and over, we decided that this job was not all it was cracked up to be, so we quit.
We had heard from one of his previous employees that Ruben wouldn't pay us, that he had ripped this prior employee off for a couple of hundred dollars.
Concerned, we asked Ruben when we could expect our checks for the 4 days of work we performed for him. He told us December 22nd was the next pay day.
We live about 45 minutes south of Murray, UT, so prior to driving up to Murray on the 22nd, we sent Ruben a text message confirming that we would have checks available to us. He responded that we should not harass him after business hours.
We waited until the next business day, and text him again. No response. My husband tried calling him, got voicemail. Time and time again we tried contacting him to confirm. No luck.
On December 22nd, we again tried calling and texting him numerous times to confirm that our checks would be available. Finally, after ALL DAY of trying to get a yes or no from him, he sent us a text that said his accountant had to leave unexpectedly and our checks wouldn't be available until December 23rd by 2:00 pm. We responded asking him if FOR SURE they would be there, so we didn't waste time or gas to get up there. No response.
Today, December 23rd, we again attempted confirming that our paychecks would be ready. No response. We have sent NUMEROUS texts, placed NUMEROUS phone calls. All go unanswered. He immediately sends our calls to voicemail, and at one point he did answer only to tell us to stop calling him or he would call the police.
Apparently, he is completely incapable of providing a simple yes or no. But, this is no news to us. According to his previous employee, this is common practice for him. He's notorious for ripping folks off - and quite frankly, if he can't communicate and pay his employees, I dread the thought of how he handles his customers.
Be very careful when doing ANY kind of business with Emmediate Credit Solutions OR Ruben Apodaca.

In Breaking News late this afternoon, we find yet another reason why Direct Recording Electronic (DRE, usually touch-screen) voting systems are incompatible with democracy: When an election held on them is contested, the machines themselves --- which are said to hold the ballots internally --- cannot be used in another election until the contest is settled.
Late news this afternoon, sent to The BRAD BLOG moments ago, reveals that a judge in an Alameda County, California election contest is set to rule that a contested ballot measure election from 2004 must now be reheld since the county destroyed data from the election when they sent the Diebold DRE voting systems back to the company in Plano, Texas.
All but 4% of election data, records and audit logs was overwritten in subsequent contests, according to the following release from Americans For Safe Access (ASA) who were the plaintiffs in the contest.
In 2004, Alameda was the same county where it was found that Diebold had installed uncertified hardware and software in the county's voting system. The illegal action by the company eventually led to the decertification of certain Diebold systems in California.
The judge's unprecedented decision to re-hold an election after plaintiffs were denied their right to a proper recount after the county's failure to preserve election records on the Diebold touch-screen systems could have reverberations around the country.
The ASA release explains the astounding details and background in this tale, along with the judge's tentative findings in full...
OAKLAND, CA – Superior Court Judge Winifred Y. Smith issued a tentative ruling that the Alameda County Registrar of Voters and Alameda County "have engaged in a pattern of withholding relevant evidence and failure to preserve evidence" necessary to conduct a recount of a hotly contested Berkeley ballot measure. As a result, the Court has signaled its intention to void the election and order the County to place Measure R back on the ballot for a re-vote at the next general election.
Judge Smith will issue a final ruling after the Court hears oral arguments tomorrow (Friday, July 13, at 9:30 a.m. at the Wiley Manuel Courthouse, Department 114, 661 Washington Street, Oakland).
"Judge Smith's tentative ruling confirms our contention that Alameda County violated its duty to preserve the critical voting machine data that was the focus of this recount lawsuit and election contest," said Gregory Luke of Strumwasser & Woocher LLP, attorney for the plaintiffs
who sought the recount of the vote on Measure R.
More from the press release, including background on this incredible story, the ballot measure, the long fought election contest, the overwriting of the data on the Diebold voting machines --- in violation of the law --- and the judge's tentative ruling itself, follows below...

10 Celebrities Show You How to Do Swimwear
Celebrities always seem to be on vacation or hanging out at the beach. Either way, they give us plenty of inspiration (and serious motivation) for when it's our time to relax and put our feet in the sand. Scroll down for a look at what swimwear our favorite women are wearing when they take time off.
5 Killer Outfits from the Most Fashionable Decades
We're to the point where trends have cycles and resurface every so many years. 2016 proved to be a year that brought back more trends than we thought possible. Here's some of our favorite outfits that perfectly capture the essence of the era it came from and had us checking our day planners to be sure we were in the 2000s.
Get the Look: Eva Mendes' Denim Chic
Eva Mendes is synonymous with effortless style, and in this look, it's easy to see why. The best thing about her outfit? Almost everything is from New York & Company, where Mendes recently debuted her own line.
Get the Look: Kristin Cavallari's Sleek Leather Leggings
"Laguna Beach" star Kristin Cavallari traded her signature flip-flops and frayed flares for sleek leather leggings and fitted blazers, and we think it's a trade up. Get her city chic look with a few key pieces.
Red Carpet Recap: American Music Awards
Only at a music awards show would you be able to find a floor-length, Asian-inspired gown and a spandex minidress with pointless cutouts on the same red carpet. Unlike rigidly formal events like the Oscars, the American Music Awards seems to offer tacit approval for celebs to throw good taste and reason to the wind--blame it on the high concentration of wacky musicians and eccentrics. Here are some of the good, the bad, and the just plain confusing looks from last night's show.
Emmys 2011: Our Picks for Best and Worst Looks of the Night
"Modern Family" may have swooped up all the statues, but we all know the real winners of the Emmys are determined on the red carpet. Take a look at our picks for the best dressed, near misses, and biggest fashion letdowns of the night.
Red Carpet Recap: The Best of Holiday Movie Premieres
This was the week of holiday movie premieres. With "New Year's Eve," "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows," "Young Adult," and other flicks hitting theaters this weekend, that meant several red carpets crowded with festive star-studded style. Here are some of the sartorial highlights!
Navel-Gazing: Fashions of the Golden Globes
The Internet's foremost authorities on style and brilliant non sequiturs, Amy and Renae, are back again to discuss the fashions of Golden Globes. See which red-carpet looks made the dynamic duo cheer with glee, which ones made them weep with sorrow, and which ones imperiled the very foundation of their friendship.
How the Stars Get Red-Carpet Ready
For an A-list celebrity, awards season isn't just the chance to get wined and dined and wear pretty dresses. It's a weeks-long gauntlet of intense personal improvement, all intended to culminate in one picture-perfect moment when they step out onto the red carpet. And aesthetic perfection doesn't come easy--or cheap.
Summer Styling Inspiration from Celebs
The calendar may say that it won't arrive for another two weeks, but according to the weather, summer is officially here. That's right—sandals, sundresses, shorts, and skimpy bikinis are abounding. Although we love summer because there's no need to hide your sartorial glory under a thick down coat (or a wooly hat, ugh!), the pitfall of summer fashion is that sometimes you end up feeling like you're living in the same ratty tank and pair of cutoff shorts all season long. Want some summer style inspiration divined from the stars? Peep these celebs' summer street style looks to get some ideas on how to look hot and stay cool.
Fashion Flops from the SAG Awards
The 18th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards were last night and the red carpet featured many yawn-inducing dresses and a couple winners. Also there was a curious abundance of ankle straps. Take a look at some of the highlights and let us know if you're as underwhelmed as we are, and if you think the leg-shortening ankle strap should make a comeback.
Get the Look: Kerry Washington's Chic Coral Ensemble
Kerry Washington seems to always be perfectly put together—even early in the morning when the actress stopped by ABC Studios to appear on "Good Morning America." Jealous? Don't be! We recreated the stylish star's outfit so you can look just as fashionable.
Get the Look: Miranda Kerr's Fall Maxi Dress Style
Miranda Kerr was recently spotted at LAX in a chic striped maxi and denim jacket. Get her look with our stylish picks!
This Oscar nominee plays a bad girl on screen, but Rooney Mara tends to play it safe--at least when it comes to color--in her red-carpet fashion choices, opting for monochromatic looks in black, white, or nude. The dress designs, however, are far from tame and have evolved from pretty and sweet to fierce and daring. It seems as though Rooney can't quite shake the part of Lisbeth Salander in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. But we're not complaining. Her performance may just land her an Oscar. And we love her dark pixie cut, off-kilter fashion choices, and dark, brooding stare. Here's a look at her fashion evolution and proof that a girl can never have too much black in her closet.
While Jessica Chastain's character, Celia Foote, was ridiculed in "The Help" for her promiscuous outfits, Jessica tends to steer clear of outrageous choices when it comes to red-carpet fashion, opting instead for more sophisticated looks. She loves cinched waists, long gowns, and bold colors ranging from bright orange to dark, cobalt blue. Here are some of our favorite style picks from Ms. Chastain and pieces that will help you get her looks.
This breakout star from The Help may have some stiff competition in the best actress category, but when it comes to looking radiant on the red carpet, Viola Davis has the deal sealed. Her bold color choices, flawless skin, and beaming smile have stolen the show at just about every awards show of the past year. Take a look at a few of Viola's most stunning red-carpet moments.
Meryl Streep's red-carpet fashions are as timeless as she is. From elegant white gowns to fun, sophisticated patterns, Ms. Streep never misses a beat--in fashion or film. This year, thanks to her outstanding performance in The Iron Lady, the sixty-two-year-old actress is nominated for an Oscar for the seventeenth time. Here's a look at a few of her most memorable red-carpet moments, and proof that just like her acting, Meryl's style only gets better with age.
Holy Hippie! Celebs Go Boho for Coachella
It's official: I was a hippie in my past life. And the feeling that I belong in the back of a VW bus with nothing but my guitar and love for the world only grew stronger as I flipped through these awesome pictures of celebrities decked out in their groovy Coachella wear. Even if you aren't into bohemian fashion as much as I am (which is definitely better for you bank account, so congrats), I guarantee you'll greet this freewheeling festival fashion with arms wide open. It's all about the love, people—all about the lace-wearin', belly-showin', bootie-sportin' love.
See which celebs wooed and wowed us each week by stepping out in style.
Curious Fashion Abounds at the People's Choice Awards
Awards season is ramping up, and at this week's People's Choice Awards, the truly interesting choices were some celebrities' choices of outfits. Although the People's Choice Awards are not known for being the most fashionable of celebrity events, most attendees looked fine. OK. Alright-ish. But a few stars walked the red carpet wearing some highly questionable attire.
Get the Look: Victoria Beckham
Steal Victoria's stylish casual look with some choice new designer pieces.
Running errands? Toting tots? No reason not to look good. Steal some style tips from busy mom and actress Naomi Watts.
Get the Look: Jessica Alba's Casual Comfy Look

I am very angry about this matter as I am being charged for something I never ordered from this company and it is now hurting my credit.
I think that legal action should be taken against this company as they are getting away with charging individuals like myself and others for things we have never ordered and then sending it to a collection agency and damaging ppl's credit!!!!!
shame on you Quality Paperback Book Club~
I am going to contact an attorney tomorrow in regards to taking legal action towards this company as this is ridiculus.

breakfast: coffee & apple tart from polka. this was great, but i wasn't really paying attention to it but was busy reading this about pinterest. i think everybody should read it and be aware why its business model is fraud and of the risks you are subject to upon pinning other people's images.
snack: earl grey & carrot cake
late lunch: miso soup (potato, green onion, seaweed) & avocado natto don
dinner: coffee & bagel with cream cheese and honey
I see more and more people are taking my images from this blog and pinning them on their Pintest accounts. Please do not do that. (This, not to mention, goes for Tumblr users or any other people who post my images somewhere else without ever bothering to ask for my permission.) With Pinterest what you are doing is basically claiming that you have the rights to those images, which you don't, and giving away the rights to sell those images to Pinterest at their disposal. Does it seem legal to you? And if the *real* owners of the images decided to take legal actions, it'd be you who will be solely accountable for it, not Pinterest. Very fishy.
Stupid TV has begun to show footage of 3.11, gearing up for the first anniversary. It's not easy…I can't imagine what it must be like for the people in the tsunami-affected region.

Hi Ai! you can block people from pinning your images by using this code: http://support.pinterest.com/entries/21063792-what-if-i-don-t-want-images-from-my-site-to-be-pinned
-it does not solve the problem, because people can still save your photos and upload them, but it is a start
ps. I am going to tokyo this may! can't wait to visit Japan.
pps. I hope the anniversary is not too hard on you. I can understand how horrible the memories are
March 4, 2012 at 8:07 pm
Thanks for posting that, i really don't think people are aware of just how sketchy that site is.
I've been thinking a lot about 3.11 and how the media over there is gonna handle it. As for our media, my money is on "cheesy" coverage instead of relevant.
March 4, 2012 at 9:50 pm
Pinterest really satisfies my tendency to organize and categorize visual inspirations. But I read that Pinterest has some fishy copyright policies. :(
Here's a code you can add to the "head" section of your blog that'll block people from repinning your photos:
March 4, 2012 at 9:51 pm
Ah, the code disappeared. Just look for it here:
March 4, 2012 at 10:31 pm
I know some people argue that by posting text, images, videos on the internet you should be prepared that they would be used by others etc. But that is just stealing. At the very least they should ask permission + be prepared the owner will say no, which they are fully entitled to.
I can't stand how disasters get rehashed into, yep 'cheesy' coverage as Flora says.
March 5, 2012 at 12:55 am
I think putting a watermark/text like'©Aixxx' on your photos is a good idea. It should make someone think twice about nicking your photos and if they still do so at least they'll be seen to be yours.
March 5, 2012 at 4:22 am
Doubt you remember me (it's been a while since I've read/commented here due to horrible life schedule…) but hello Ai!
Sorry about the image thieves — it's really irritating, which is why I'm still on the fence of creating a blog! How did you discover it anyway?
March 5, 2012 at 4:36 am
Those carrot cakes look divine. I love the height!
You always pick out the best 食器. Do you have any stores or websites that you recommend?
March 5, 2012 at 7:58 am
You've got the prettiest plates and cups ^^
March 5, 2012 at 9:53 pm
hey ai.
wanted to tell you that i pinned an image from your site recently.
i didn't realize that it didn't link. sorry!
don't worry, i just deleted my account. not into the stealing thing.
thanks for the info. and the blog!
March 9, 2012 at 6:56 am
I deleted my account after finding out about that. someone was kind enough to post it on Tumblr. I hope that code helps to save your images. I really do believe people should ask first before just posting. :(

AUTHOR: Annika - (Russian Federation)
SUBMITTED: Monday, June 20, 2011POSTED: Monday, June 20, 2011
I just came across this negative report and i totally disagree with it! I can't sit and watch quietly how someone is trying to spoil the reputation of the company who are making the most decent SEo software out there. The info on subscription is easy to find on the site. All you have to do is click "Software prices" link on the homepage and you will see all info about licenses and Live plan prices.
If you don't want to pay for good software, then this is the problem, and not the fact that the software requires payment.It's good software, the developers are responsible and honest and this software is so much better than competing tools, the company must be spending a fortune on making it better all the time, with all these Google algo chages and captchas and all - and this is the only piece of SW actually that is able to adjust fast.
The rest of tracking tools just show you wrong data for days if Google's algorithm has changed. Like in ibp or webceo, they will just put in old data from a previous chech and you won't even notice. You will think you rank #3 and you are long ago #12. And still even lower-quality tools charge renewal price, so what's wrong about Rank Tracker updates for SE algorithms? It's fair, just like antivirus needs updates, the same is true for SEO software. This is how it works, and it can't work otherwise. Car dealers don't write on cars "you will need to buy gas for it". Live! plan is like gas for RT. It's just obvious if you have any knowledge in SEO at all, you would understand this.
Your negative attitude arises from your inexperience and willingness to get good things cheap - but this doesn't work, good things always cost. I've just paid for Live plan for 3 years to go (they have a cheap 36-month plan) It is important that the software is working fine and shows correct results, so I pay for that.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Link-Assistant is decptive

SUBMITTED: Friday, June 17, 2011POSTED: Friday, June 17, 2011
WHY would they put the ONLY information about the subscription in small print at the bottom of the page unless they want to hide the fact they are chargin for a subscription?
They are using clever methodology like: "Free for life", "Free updates", "free of charge updates for life" all over the page but NEVER mention that you have to pay for a subscription.
The only information about this is on the order page at the end. This information you will never see if you click on any of the many "Order Buttons" on the page.
The whole idea is to let the buyer believe that the product comes with FREE UPDATES for life, when in reality it's not.
It is decptive marketing and would never be allowed in many countries.
I guess Russia doesn't have a consumer board or consumer protection agency.

AUTHOR: legacy0009 - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Friday, June 17, 2011POSTED: Friday, June 17, 2011
Anything said above is a total BS. Let me explain:
1) The software is great - SEO PowerSuite (and Rank Tracker as a part of this suite) is one of the best and one of the most well-known SEO tools.
2) You seem to be accusing them that they're from Belarus? Well, actually I've always preferred people from some other countries who do the work to my US neighbors who can just yell they're not satisfied :)
3) You say they are using SAAS (recurring fees) approach - but what's the problem? ANY tool in the SEO field uses the same approach (let alone free toys that do more evil than good). Let me tell once again: this is a COMMON thing for ALL SEO-related tools.
4) You accuse them of having BUY or DOWNLOAD buttons on their website. I don't even want to comment on that. That's OK, man ;)
5) They've got LOTS of pages describing their Live! Plan - like here: http://www.link-assistant.com/prices.html - look at the big red "Live! Plan" section. And this page is just one click away from the main page, so what's the problem?
6) No T&C? What T&C do you want? Did you install the software on your computer? Did you see the License Agreement? The site itself shouldn't cover any legal issues since all the issues are covered for the software (i.. product) itself - not for the site (i.e. marketplace).
So there's nothing to be scared of. And yes, there's NO other products that can do the same things. A lot of cheaper (or more expensive) products, but non of them come even close to what Rank Tracker can do - and that's true. I do pay for Live! Plans for more than 2,5 years already, and you know what? - I'll keep paying, 'cause this tool is definitely the best on the market (otherwise you wouldn't buy it yourself, right?)
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

The container terminal visibility blind spot
Wednesday, August 17, 2016
New technology providers are attacking the container visibility space with vigor these days, aiming to fill in traditional gaps with which transportation providers and shippers have long struggled. A recent entry into this mix is Burlingame, Calif.-based Crux Systems, which is seeking to provide drayage providers and shippers with better visibility into the movement of containers through marine terminals.

Visibility from national security to supply chain
Thursday, August 11, 2016
The idea of supply chain visibility as a "need-to-have" capability is pretty well established at this point. Most importers and exporters either have some form of visibility, know they need to have it, or have made a decision that their cargo isn't high value or transit time sensitive enough to necessitate it. So then the issue becomes, what type of visibility is required. Track and trace of a handful of key transportation milestones? Or deeper and more frequent upd...

Executive Summary: Global Trade Management
Tuesday, March 22, 2016
O utsourcing has become an undeniably loaded term in recent years. But stripped to its most basic element, outsourcing is about shifting work and processes from inside an organization to outside that organization. There are myriad reasons that a company would wish to outsource, but chief among them are cost, bandwidth and core competence. Many companies outsource trade compliance because they know little to nothing about the process. Trade compliance is often seen as a cost bur...

Access Denied

Ask a purveyor of trade compliance software what drives most customers to their solutions and the answer is generally "penalties."

And one of the major no-no's for exporters is dealing with people, companies, organizations, or coun...
White Paper -- 2016: The Year We Network Our Supply Chains
Monday, December 21, 2015
It's hard to find something that resembles more closely the idea of a network than a supply chain. Which makes it all the more ironic that the vision for decades has been of a chain tying trading parties and all their constituent partners together. Supply chains have largely been built and executed as if they were long relay races, with a baton being passed from sourcing to ordering to manufacturing to transportation to compliance to warehousing to fulfillment. In many cases, these legs of ...
A global perspective on GTM
Monday, December 21, 2015
Attitudes toward global trade management and the technologies that address it vary widely by individual function, and by geographic region, according to new research by Thomson Reuters and KPMG.

The case for FTZ IT
Monday, December 21, 2015
Much of a compliance professional's burden in trying to get the funding to invest in global trade management technology arises from a simple dilemma: C-level executives often see investment in compliance as a means to minimize risk, while investment dollars are typically allocated to areas that maximize return on investment. If a company looks holistically at its supply chain, global trade management functions can be seen as providing an ROI (even mostly precautionary functions...

Monday, December 21, 2015

What's the next big acquisition?
Wednesday, November 25, 2015
We usually try to emphasize trends in supply chain IT in this space, but sometimes it's fun to just make outright educated guesses. 2015 was a year in which there was significant merger and acquisition activity across the logistics landscape, and it was no different in the software industry. The biggest deal in terms of global transportation management was probably Infor's $675 million purchase of GT Nexus, an acquisition made primarily to leverage GT Nexus' expertise in network...

The plumbing behind e-commerce
Saturday, August 22, 2015
E-commerce improbably only accounts for about 7 percent of total U.S. retail sales, according to Census Bureau statistics in the first quarter of 2015. I say "improbably" because I'm pretty sure my wife and I account for at least 1 percent alone, given our predilection for Internet shopping. All kidding aside, it boggles my mind that e-commerce sales are still such a small percentage of total retail sales, because supply chain concern around dealing with e-commerce ...

Industry wants ACE deadline relaxed
Saturday, July 18, 2015

The Year of IT Pragmatism: Gartner conference wrap-up
Friday, May 15, 2015
This may be the Year of the Sheep, but for supply chain professionals, maybe a better name is the Year of Pragmatism. The overriding theme at this year's Gartner Supply Chain Executive Conference, held this week in Phoenix, was one of being realistic about your supply chain-related technology investment, implementations and goals. That doesn't mean that caution should replace endeavor. Indeed, part of risk management is taking some calculated risks on investing in t...

Saturday, April 18, 2015

Does it refer to the sourcing of services, like transportation from a carrier, or management capabilities from a third party logistics provider? Does it refer to the technology that a software company provides? Or does it apply to more tangible things, like raw materials, parts, or finished goods? When ...
Millennial-izing your logistics
Saturday, April 18, 2015
The logistics staff that you hire today for your business, whether you're a shipper, transportation intermediary or freight carrier, will mostly come from the millennial generation.
