I requested copies of receipts, card card transactions with my signature; also I need information to verify that I owe this money. This was the first letter requesting verification. Please be advised that I am not refusing to pay; but I need the information requested in this correspondence before I can make any offer to settle this account.
The second letter: please furnish me with a copy of the original contract with the date, month & year. This payment was due before deliquency. I also need a charge slip to this account with my signature related to the disputed account and return them to me within 30 working days.
Since that time I have not been contacted by Camco, but I recently applied for a loan to buy a new vehicle and was denied because I believe they sold the information to another bogus collection agency. If someone could please help me put this scam artists in jail & clean my credit report up; I would appreciate this.

The knife is easy to handle, comes out of the sheath easily, and stays in securely. Very sharp knife and easy to handle. The sheath fits snugly on a belt and stays in place.
This knife feels excellently made. The sheath is very nice. Very good purchase
A superbly designed knife and sheath combo. Absolute perfection. When you draw it from the sheath, your hand is already perfectly positioned around the knife....no adjustment necessary.
Quality knife. Very sharp cut myself by mistake. Sheath is nice too but the tiny hex screws bother around the hip a bit if you wear a tight outer belt.
Love this knife for police duty. Only wish the clip would rotate
Great knife( easy to get too in case you need too very sharpe)

Has anyone heard this?
It was in this month's Fit Pregnancy:
"Women who ate dates daily during their ninth months were less likely than non-date eaters to need medication to start labor or to help keep it progressing, a new study....found. They were also more dilated upon arrival at the hospital and labored seven hours less. 'Dates seem to have a compound that mimics the hormone oxytocin'......Enjoy six dates daily for best results"
Worth a shot!

Habano is a bold and elegantly flowing script with some very surprising traits. Its roots are in both the art deco style and other types of pop culture lettering. Its lowercase characters are classy yet obedient, yet the uppercase and figures are playfully round and memorable. This contrast in character case makes for an appealing display face that can turn simple words into images that are hard to forget. The unique lettering talent of Angel Koziupa makes itself evident through an alphabet.

From Genesis to Revelation, it is clear that the Holy Bible is, in the words of Bishop T.D. Jakes, "The Greatest Love Story Ever Told." It is not a book about religion, but relationships—from the creation of a man and a woman and their intimate relationship with God in the Garden through the tragic break in that relationship at the Fall and the eventual restoration of that relationship through Jesus Christ and His death on the cross of Calvary.
Let's face it, we all have questions about relationships in life.
When you lay your head down on the pillow at night, do you find these questions about your relationship with God running through your mind? How can I know God personally? Can I find peace and true contentment? What is the purpose of my life? How do I know how God wants me to live? What is prayer?
Throughout our lives, we all face a long list of questions on relationships that trouble our souls and require real answers based on real truth. How do I forgive someone who has hurt me badly? Can I mend this broken relationship? When my world seems to be falling apart around me, who can I trust and in whom dare I confide? How do I know whether a person is the right one to date? Will my marriage survive? How do I nourish my child's heart? What do I do with my fears about expressing my love and care to a friend?
The good news is that in God's Word we find the answers to life's bewildering relationship questions.
We are not left to figure it out on our own and in our own strength and power. You are invited to begin a lifelong journey to discovering God's words of truth for your life and relationships, and to discovering God Himself in the words of His Book!

Our mission is to help you attain an inner balance, cultivate a radiant body, and experience a deeper connection to life.
SS Yoga Buffalo NY is a community center with a focus on health and well-being for the body, mind, and spirit. Home to the best Yoga in Buffalo NY, our Center also hosts free events as well as ongoing classes in meditation, pilates, prenatal yoga sessions, and more. Please see our calendar for a full listing of events. In addition to classes, several practitioners at SS Yoga also offer massage therapy, Reiki, Thai Yoga Bodywork, and private yoga sessions.
Who We Are
SS Yoga is a professional, fully certified yoga center located in Buffalo NY. We provide real health and life solutions through the art of yoga and meditation.
We provide the best yoga practice in Buffalo, New York. The goal is to make clients happy by getting them deeper into their practice while enjoying each step.of the way.
The art of yoga; why and who uses it?
There are so many benefits to practicing yoga. Those looking for an interesting all-around fitness practice should try yoga. The same old fitness routine can get a little boring. Yoga is a continuing practice where the moves are always a challenge and new.
Many people use yoga for the fitness and weight loss benefits. However sometimes, it is a deeper connection for those that practice yoga. Those that want to relieve stress use yoga. The world can be very stressful at times, with working and many other life challenges. In yoga class, we come together to relieve that stress and let everything go.
Many people use yoga for weight loss. Though yoga is not considered a cardiovascular activity, it does have weight loss benefits. There are variations of yoga. Vinyasa is a great, continued yoga practice that can kick start weight loss. Vinyasa flow is a fast-paced form of yoga. It gives a more fitness approach to yoga as oppose to because the movements are of more of a dance flow.
Yoga used by those looking for alternative medicine benefits. Many don't believe in medicating with over-the-counter and prescription drugs because of the harmful effects it may have. Yoga is a healing practice that is used as therapy. Yoga has been said to heal the nervous system and prevent diseases. People also use yoga to lower blood pressure, cure sleep insomnia and improve digestion.
What can you expect to get out of yoga?
Self-discipline: As adults, we suffer from commitment issues. Especially commitments to ourselves. We have so much on our plate, and the last thing we are thinking about is ourselves. We give to our children, our families our work and so much more. We barely take any time for ourselves. Within the yoga practice, a big component is teaching students that it is always important to take time for us. We can continue to give to others, but we are important as well. Yoga also teaches that those around us want us to remember that it is important to commit to ourselves as well. Self-commitment and discipline make us better people for those around us.
Breathing techniques: An important part of yoga, if not the most important part, is focusing on your breath. Breathing is very vital to our lives and health and sometimes we are not doing it correctly. Breathing helps get rid of those toxins in our body that cause us to be sick. Breathing also helps with proper digestion, concentration, and self-control.
Stress relief: I have talked about stress relief of yoga, but I have not talked about how and why yoga reduces stress. Specific breathing patterns can release the body in a state of complete relief.
How everyday life problems can be solved through the practice of yoga; yoga teaches self-discipline; etc.
Stress, as mentioned above, is an everyday life problem. I have already spoke on stress. During life, stress will happen. We are working and competing to keep our jobs, paying bills, stressing about money, dealing with loved ones passing and so many other things. It is important to target and relieve stress because it can lead to health problems and sometimes death.
At SS Yoga Buffalo NY, we help you defeat stress by focusing on the root causes, and help you attain inner peace and become more vibrant in your life.
Improving work performance: When you practice yoga mind, body, and spirit, you open up an entire world of creativity. After yoga classes, you feel like you can take on the world, and you view the world a lot differently than when you first came into class. Your creativity may kick, and you bring fresh ideas to your boss that he loves and wants to take on.
It can also increase your overall production at work. It is no secret that many get stuck in a workload run. However, practicing yoga can turn that all around. The yoga practice is full of multitasking and concentration. It will go on into your everyday job life, and more work will get done.
Relationships: Yoga is all about inner peace. After starting yoga, you will notice that the fights that you had with your spouse will become conversations. You will feel inclined to talk issues out more instead of belittling and yelling at each other.
Bedroom activities get better: If you are stuck in a sexual rut, yoga is what your relationship needs. Couples that have practiced yoga have said that their sex life is very much improved. That is because yoga increases flexibility and sexual stamina. Yoga can make you feel more and more attractive and more comfortable in the bedroom. This can lead to more orgasms and enjoyable sex all around.
What you will learn with our yoga classes
Students will learn the best yoga poses and the meaning behind them. Everything in our Buffalo yoga practices has a purpose. There isn't one pose, movement or flow that doesn't serve a specific purpose.
For example, there is a physical purpose behind the poses "asana." This physical pose targets the spine in a helpful and safe way. They are done to ensure the health and proper movement of the spine. Asana poses are the key to yoga, in a sense. They are there to help improve the body's overall function and health. The most amazing thing is they target so many systems in the body, such as the nervous, reproductive and urinary functions.
You will also learn of the different types and forms of yoga and which is the right one to fit your needs. Bikram yoga is done in a heated studio, and there are poses on a consistent basis, think hot yoga. Hatha is where you will learn the basics and is targeted more to beginners in their practice. For those that want more of a slower flow, Yin may be the one for you. It concentrates more on long poses and deep connection to those poses.
Contact Us today to see how SS Yoga Buffalo NY can help you achieve ultimate freedom and inner peace.

Doc Johnson Oralove Feminine Hygiene Pleasure Wipes (30 Pack)
Only: $12.95
Reviewed: 22 October 2013 by xKayteex, a Straight Going Steady Female
Brilliant, with a nice scent and good easy to open convient packaging that doesn't loose its stickiness to keep your wipes fresh.
The wipes themselves aren't huge but are enough and don't leave you feeling sticky or over moisturised. These are perfect and just what you want to feel refreshed and have a lovely sweet smell that's not overpowering just feminine :) They do the job they are for and I would highly recommend these for a quick freshen up for those intimate moments or just to feel good :) You get x30 in a pack and they are good quality material.
- Pros
- Nice smell
- Cons
- Nothing
- Bottom line
- Perfect! Do their job.

Reviewed: 19 October 2013 by mrs average
These handy cleansing wipes are just the job. A handy little pack of moist lightly fragranced wipes to wipe intimate and genital areas to prevent any bad odours from cutting short your foreplay and oral sex.
There's nothing worse than bad hygiene and off putting smells, and although showering and brushing our teeth daily are the best way of preventing this, by the time the mood and timing is right a little freshening up is always handy and more spontaneous than a full hour in the bathroom.
Ladies don't give your OH an excuse not to go down on you. This leaves you clean, fresh and ready for pleasure. The scent is not too strong either just lightly fragranced and flushable too.
- Pros
- Leaves you fresh and clean.
- Cons
- Nothing it's just what you need to freshen up.
- Bottom line
- Handy bedside cleansing wipes, making oral sex more pleasurable and enticing for your other half.

Tournaments / Re: 32nd Annual Kansas City Wide Open - June 20-22, 2014« on: June 10, 2014, 12:29:17 pm »
Any KCWO discs available for purchase? Getting close and I haven't heard of anything yet.
This section allows you to view all posts made by this member. Note that you can only see posts made in areas you currently have access to.
For your information, on the table, and has been in discussion between the team captains and myself, is an issue of state allegiance. This is an issue that has come up before, particularly the first year, when I wasn't prepared to think about it, in the rush to get the event underway that Fall. I don't believe it was mentioned last year, but probably would have affected the same folks asking about it the previous year. To be honest, I don't think the people in question would have made either sides team, however could obviously been captains picked. The difference this year is a player, that had been on a team previously, has moved out of his state of allegiance. That player is Shanan Carson.
Anyway, the issue is players living on one side of the state line, but their true allegiance is to the other state. This issue will continue to crop if not addressed at this time when it affects a team level player.
I am posting this so there is no mistaking what is being proposed.
A player living on one side of the state line, but wanting to play for the other side has to meet at least one of the following criteria to claim state allegiance:
A) Raised in and graduated high school in said state,
B) Graduated from College in said state,
C) Have had residency in said state continuously, to the present, for 15+ years
That's it, no other reasons will be accepted to establish true allegiance. Players still need to meet the currently living within the area requirement to even be considered under this amendment.
Once a player establishes allegiance to a state and has played on that sides team, they can never play for the other side.
Finally, players that need to use the allegiance amendment to get on the team of their state allegiance must be selected with a captains pick or alternate spot. No qualifying spots can be obtained by a player using the allegiance amendment.
short 1 is an eyesore and 12 long is a genius placement with ample options for a 3

Crochet Edging Question
Hi all,
I am knitting a shawl and it ends with crochet edging. I have never crocheted before. It seems pretty easy in that all I am doing is chaining. The last row before the edging was knitted. Then the pattern reads as follows:
*Insert crochet hook through the next 3 sts and sl off needle, yo and draw through all sts on hook, chain 7; rep from * across to last 3 sts, insert crochet hook through the last 3 sts and sl off needle, yo and draw through all sts on hook. Fasten off.
I figured out the first part up to the chain part. I have one stich on the crochet hook from the yarn over. When I looked on the Internet on how to do the chain stitch it showed how to begin chaining (kind of like casting on) and I didn't know where to look for chaining the next row. My question is: to chain 7 do I use the stitch already on the crochet hook and chain 7 brand new stitches with the loose (working) yarn, or do I slip the next seven stiches onto the crochet hook (one at a time) and use those to chain? i.e. slip the next knitted stich onto the crochet hook, chain, slip the next knitted stitch onto the crochet hook, chain for 7 times? Does anyone know of any good videos or picture sites to see how to crochet for beginners? My mind is in knitting mode.
Thanks for any help.
I can see it in my head. I hope this helps. If not, I'm sure someone else can say it better. I also hope I understand what you're asking.
Yes, doing this chain is just like if you were making a chain to start a piece; instead of a slip knot you just have the one loop on the hook. So reach out and grab the yarn, pull it through and you've done one chain. Do it 6 more times and there's your ch 7. Then hook through the next 3 sts, yo and pull it through all 3 sts again. It's as if you CO sts, you don't use the existing ones, you make new one.

Notice to INIS Customers | Possible Fraud
23 June 2016
It has come to our attention that some of our customers have been contacted by telephone by a person purporting to be from INIS.
The caller tells the person that they are the subject of a Deportation Order from the authorities in their country of origin and that they face deportation that day. They are told that INIS is acting on behalf of their own Government to recoup an administration payment which will prevent their immediate deportation. This payment is to be made to an account in their country of origin. The caller I.D. number that displays is a real INIS number and the caller directs people to the website address and indeed the number will appear, on the face of it, to be legitimate.
This is an attempted fraud. INIS does not and will not contact applicants by telephone in relation to any such payments to accounts abroad. INIS does not under any circumstances request payment for its services over the telephone. Furthermore, any persons facing deportation from the State will have been involved in a detailed process and would be notified in writing by registered post in advance of any planned deportation.
Customers are asked to be vigilant. Do not give details of your immigration application or status to telephone callers unless you are sure who they are. If someone demands payment of any monies, contact INIS or An Garda Síochána immediately.

Skill Level Beginner
- [Voiceover] Most jobs today require some form of both technical and computer skills. If you're applying for a job in IT you must use your top technical skills to sell yourself to the employer. For example, you may include such things as software applications, hardware, programming languages, networking, or client server tools. If you're not seeking an IT position, think outside the box. Maybe you're in accounting, or you're an administrative assistant and need to include such things as Outlook, Word, Excel, Elite, or SAP.
But technical skills come in many different forms and are not just limited to computers and applications. You might need to include such things as specialized machines you've operated, or systems you work with that require specialized training to operate. For example, you might have experience using a lathing system, work with specialized machinery, you might operate heavy equipment or have industry specific skills such as working with oil and gas equipment. Be sure to include these on your resumes to match the position you are seeking as employers or recruiters may be using these as keywords when they're performing searches in resume banks in order to find you.
So how do you showcase this information on your resume? The best way to showcase this information is to focus on the position you are targeting and the work that you want to do. Make sure to place the most pertinent information at the beginning of this section. Target and customize your resume for every job you apply for and then match your skills with the requirements of each. Let's take a look at some common questions people have when adding their technical experience section on the resume.
They might ask should I include the number of years of experience that I have? Or should I rate my technical experience as a beginner, intermediate, or advanced? And the answer to both of these questions is no. You can leave the years and ratings off of your resume. Of course, if you've only used an application once, leave it off altogether. Instead of ratings, use the professional experience section to add additional detail and to back up how you've used these skills on the job.
Let's say that you included Flash or Dreamweaver in your technical skills section. You should describe how you've used these apps in the workplace. Showing how you use a software will provide the employer with genuine insight into the depth of your knowledge and how much experience that you have utilizing them. Where should you place this information? Well, if you're in a highly technical position, place it above your professional experience section. A technical recruiter shared with me that this will make it easier for the recruiters and employers alike to see if you have the necessary skills that they are looking for without having to search to the bottom of your resume.
As far as formatting goes, let's take a look at three different ways to display the same set of technical skills. The paragraph style, the table style, or using a bulleted list. The first way is to showcase this information using a paragraph style. Look at the technical skills section on this resume. It highlights skills such as Microsoft, Adobe, and then shows other technical skills. And it shows all this using a paragraph style.
Here's the same information displayed using a table style. And again, the same information using a bulleted list. Which do you find easiest to read? Which do you think would be easiest on the eyes if you were the employer? Based on the amount of information you have pick the format that works best for your situation and resume format. For example, if you already have too many bulleted points, pick one of the other ways of displaying this information. Whatever you do, don't lie about your technical skills.
I heard of a situation where someone included a software application on their resume because it was in the job description. In reality the person didn't even know what the program did, and had never even heard of it. He got the job and it was soon discovered by the company that he didn't have a clue how to use this software. I'm sure you're not surprised that it was soon after that he was fired. It's just not worth it, just leave it off. Or better yet, learn it. Depending on the experience you have you may be able to learn the application pretty quickly.
I know of another situation where the candidate researched the software found on the job description, downloaded a 14 day free trial from the internet, and created a presentation for the employer using the software for the interview. The candidate proved one, that they could use their past experience to learn applications quickly, two, that they were interested in the position enough to go to all that trouble, and three, that they had great initiative. At least that's what the employer said. I should know. In this situation I was that candidate and I got the job.
It's important to showcase and highlight your technical skills on your resume, not only for informational purposes, but also for keyword searches as well. Need to brush up? No better time than to take lynda.com courses, print out that certification, and add it to your list of technical skills.

We're back March 17 at RHS with a delicious variety of fresh, local food!
We've had a wonderful break, but are excited to get the winter market rolling again, and we hope that you haven't forgotten about us while we've been resting up for the coming season! It's an all-star lineup at Kent Roosevelt High School starting this Saturday from 9am to noon with lots of fresh produce (several high tunnels in production with salad greens, kale, collards, beet greens, spinach, green garlic, parsley, dill, cilantro), plus baked goods, preserves, cheese, flour, cornmeal, dried beans, and so much more. We'll be set up again in the big, sunny atrium by the school auditorium. You can park in the circular drive in front of the school, or in any of the parking lots and enter through the cafeteria side – both doors will be open, with signs pointing you in the right direction.
We continue our SNAP program, so customers can swipe their Ohio Direction Card for tokens to spend with any vendor selling approved food items, or you can use your credit or debit card to buy tokens to use for any purchase with every vendor. Visit the market info table by the front entrance for more information, and to buy a snazzy market tee or recycled cotton canvas shopping tote.
Remaining Haymaker Winter Market Dates
At Kent Roosevelt High School in the auditorium lobby, 9am – noon:
March 17
March 24
April 7

April 14
April 28
May 12

I am happy to welcome back Tom Echikson, a partner in LeClairRyan's Environmental Practice. Tom's bio is Here.
Shortly before the end of the year, EPA released its annual review of its civil and criminal enforcement results for the Fiscal Year 2012. See Here.
Touting massive reductions in pollutant emissions and discharges as well as continued growth in civil and criminal penalties, EPA proclaimed that its "vigorous" and "innovative" enforcement efforts were a success. EPA promised that it had set the groundwork for similar results in the future, although it would continue to pursue "larger more complex, risked-based enforcement cases."
Whatever EPA's spin, a careful evaluation of the numbers provides some useful insights into EPA's past and future enforcement efforts.
Some of the key takeaways:
So what can these trends tell us about the future of EPA's enforcement program? First, with its budget either flat or declining, EPA is going to be hard-pressed to increase the resources it devotes to enforcement and, in fact, may face even greater resource constraints and a reduction in enforcement personnel. This will reinforce EPA's focus on fewer larger and more significant cases so that the penalty and injunctive figures don't fall off, thus allowing the Agency to show Congress, industry and the environmental community that it is not slacking in its enforcement efforts.
Moreover, the increased budget pressures will push EPA to do more with less and rely to a greater extent on newer and more sophisticated quantitative and statistical analyses and methods and remote sensing techniques to identify violations and focus its enforcement appropriately. Over the last several years, EPA has invested significantly in automated data mining techniques to wade through the mountain of data in its possession and that it collects. This effort will begin to pay greater dividends over the next few years.
While it is standard practice to assert that past results don't guarantee future success, one can say with certainty that EPA's 2012 enforcement results demonstrate that the Agency's enforcement program remains strong and active and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

KINGSTON — A world-famous musician touts the perks of living in and visiting Ulster County in a new tourism video.
Levon Helm discusses why he located his studio in Woodstock during a four-minute video that will appear on YouTube and the Ulster County Alive website, said tourism director Rick Remsnyder.
"I don't think you get much bigger than a four-time Grammy winner," Remsnyder said. Helm was a drummer and singer for The Band, a roots rock group founded in 1964.
Helm is filmed speaking on his Woodstock property and at Gill's Farm Market in Hurley. The video also splices in clips from Helm's music career.
Helm participated in the video at no cost, Remsnyder said. Production costs ran less than $5,000.
