One of my all time favourite fights, Carmen Basilio was superhuman that night, he lost the decision and showed unbelievable toughness and stamina, watched every round of this fight over and over again, every time I score the fight I get a different result, Ive had Robinson winning by 5 rounds, then I watch it agaim and score it for Basilio,,,,,,, how the **** do you score a fight like this one. Now, the result is almost meaningless as both became even more legendary after it, in the end its one win apeice and it is totally fair too. the one thing I cant forget is how Basilio fought on and on with his eye in such a terrible state, you'd think that Robinson would have won every round after the eye got bad, in fact Basilio gets better, not worse, oh man he had RESOLVE. ------------------------------------- Anyone ever ask me to name my 5 favourite fighters of all time, Carmen Basilio is always a shoe in, we all know about SRR and most fans know of Carmen, to me he is a SPECIAL great.

Why clients become terrorits while leaving?
Hi, Guys!
After spending couple of years with web hosting, I observed that clients become a bomb shells while leaving.
Even clients are very happy earlier but with very small problem them become terrorists for the company.
Do we've any solution to this problem? Because problems can occur any where.

I'm sure not every client. The behavior depends on the person first of all and it does not depend on the company.

The difference here is low end vs premium clients. I get tired of working with clients over seas as they drain me well. So I will be focusing only on clients in the USA nowadays. Gave it one last try for a client over seas and it just does not work.

It really depends on the client. Speaking as a past dedicated server client (before I went into the dedicated server field), my cancellation requests were usually just accompanied by 1-2 paragraphs of explanation. I wanted to clearly explain why I was leaving, but I saw no need to be vindictive about it.

It is a two sided coin.
Typically the reason a client wants to leave is something the company has done to upset them. The more they feel poorly treated the more they are likely to create a situation.
The only way to resolve it is by looking at the trigger for them wanting to leave and then correcting that. Ok it may not keep that particular customer but it may aid in keeping others.
I am a firm beliver of treat others as you want to be treated. Things like feedback forms, general check ups asking if the service is as expected etc. To many companys today provide a service and spend alot of time being nice nice to get the client but as soon as they have paid "bang just another number in the system" and typically that is the last the client will see of the nice nice company.
Now im not saying that all companys are like that as they are not but the only way to improve and understand customers is to speak to them.
Another massive factor depends on your market, if your company is offering unlimited everything then sure enough once a customer actually starts to utalise alot expect a backlash once you in their eyes move the goal posts and tell them there is limits.

All eyes on 2014: what's next for smartphone cameras
0. phoneArena 03 Jan 2014, 09:49 posted on
Can 2014 bring us a new revolution in smartphone cameras? There are a few technologies that have been ripening in the past couple of years …
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. jellmoo (Posts: 1573; Member since: 31 Oct 2011)
2014 will bring two things to smartphone cameras:
1) What Nokia does.
2) What everyone else does.
5. ihavenoname (Posts: 1693; Member since: 18 Aug 2013)
I'm really wating for GS5, it might have one of the best smartphone cameras ever. And I really hope the camera is so good there is no need for S5 Zoom.
50. Darkhell (Posts: 33; Member since: 03 Nov 2013)
No it won't, it will have the best smart phone can for the average person unlike the Lumia 1020 with a monster can. Samsung sells practical, faster, more convenient and wants to be over the majority. I doubt they will rival Nokia.
52. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
58. mzetko (Posts: 2; Member since: 06 Jan 2014)
WHAT THE F****? Samsung is more practical than Lumia? In what way? More Addroid ads? More lagging? Less integration? More viruses? Tell me!
17. Ashoaib (Posts: 3229; Member since: 15 Nov 2013)
Well samsung's camera results are very good without being 41mp... what if samsung come up with 41mp? It will beat the butts of nokia... but 13mp or 16mp is fine, no need to jump to 41mp and make the shooting lover like me to run out of phone's memory...
26. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
Why would Samsung's be better❔ We couldn't possibly know that until we had a full, unbiased, comparison..
28. kenjoe (Posts: 9; Member since: 18 Mar 2013)
I havent yet to see any talk about Samsung camera that good compare to Nokia 808 and 1020 could bring
31. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
Or the 1520..
38. hung2900 (Posts: 956; Member since: 02 Mar 2012)
Have you seen the comparison on GSMArena? The outdoor photo of Not e3 is equal to 1520, or a little bit sharper, night photo is worse(but not much) due to the lack of OIS, but video capture is outstanding.
39. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
Let's just consider this the best camera phone with best overall performance...
51. Darkhell (Posts: 33; Member since: 03 Nov 2013)
41 MP only shows with proper light, the best thing about the Nokia cam is the zoom, it has an actual camera like zoom. Nokia was stupid to not have an SD slot on a phone that takes 38mp pictures.
53. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
Yeah, that was dumb.. Or they could've had a 64gb version..
59. mzetko (Posts: 2; Member since: 06 Jan 2014)
No Nokia can't be beaten with a Korean crap.
63. x_maly_x (Posts: 72; Member since: 01 Jun 2013)
2 years pass Lumia 920 and Slamdong still don't have OIS... Samsung = copy + pastle
20. Ashoaib (Posts: 3229; Member since: 15 Nov 2013)
MEMS and pelican technology sounds convincing
40. TechCrazyedBoy (Posts: 129; Member since: 12 Nov 2013)
those two vs. PureView..
now thats sounds convincing...
21. akki20892 (Posts: 3901; Member since: 04 Feb 2013)
Nokia cameras vs others cameras
22. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
Right❕..At this point we're talking about Lumia devices, and what they are to bring, and how everyone else follows.. Microkia is at the forefront of Smartphone camera technology, and they're not going to let that go anytime soon..
Lets not forget Nokia's investment in Pelican's 16 lens technology this past year.. We have a lot to look forward to..
27. akki20892 (Posts: 3901; Member since: 04 Feb 2013)
It's not about microkia. Ms just bought device department. Nokia is still alive. I don't care what ms will bring, but we only care what nokia will bring. We r talking about nokia not lumia. And Please you don't know what nokia is. Nokia is still alive.
32. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
This article is about what's to come in 2014❕.. Nokias entire team is still making Lumia devices.. I'm sorry, but if you're talking about what Nokia is to bring in 2014 then you're talking about a Lumia device.. As much as you don't like that, and aren't willing to accept it, this is reality..
Now, I understand how you feel about one of your favorite brands because I would be pissed off too. I love my 920, my 1520, and I'm 36 years old so I may have been using Nokia devices way before you ever got your hand on a mobile phone.. I still have old Nokia devices from the 90's so don't tell me what I do, or don't know.. I love Nokia,, but that doesn't mean that I can't face the reality of the situation... Nokias device division is still Nokia no matter what it's called, and nothing is new about Nokia making Lumia devices.. They've been doing it for years now...
Now, if Nokia makes devices again then great❕... But, we're talking about what's to come in SPCT this year.. Are you expecting for Nokia to pump out a device under the Nokia name in 2014?..
Be for real man..
33. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
Well, they could make a device under the Nokia name in 2014, but it's most definitely still going to be a Lumia.. Sorry, but this is they way it is for now.
45. dexter_jdr (Posts: 1163; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
i wonder if nokia can make a camera with kinect capabilities
54. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
There's so much that Microkia can do to make devices much better, but they hold back.. For example, your Kinect idea..
55. AppleHateBoy (unregistered)
1) How about a Lumia 1020 - OIS + 5" 1080p screen + S800 + 4K recording??
2. zuckerboy (banned) (Posts: 898; Member since: 22 Dec 2011)
Ive already decided what Im gonna do this year. Im gonna either buy iphone with 4.7 inches or galaxy s5. Camera isnt important so much to me. (I have dslr)
11. Astoni (Posts: 649; Member since: 28 Sep 2013)
I really want to see what apple brings to the table with the 4,7 and 5,7 inch smartphones :). I've been an android user since I switched from Iphone 4 to Various android devices. Also own a Lumia 520 (bought it to test WP, not really a big hit imo) But It would be nice to see what apple will do with a Note type of iphone.
3. Teja171 (unregistered)
I want 10 ultrapixel camera.
6. aayupanday (Posts: 574; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
Guess they'll have to make the device very thick in order to accommodate something like that.
14. hboy857 (Posts: 349; Member since: 03 Jun 2013)
I hope second gen HTC One will come with atleast 8 megapixel camera. All HTC have to do is improve their camera on their next flagship (Don't you dare mess it up HTC).
47. Birds (Posts: 1156; Member since: 21 Nov 2011)
Its a crying shame that the wavering feature for HTC devices falls simply upon the camera and battery... LOL. I wish them the best.

Why are they still mostly focusing on cameras... I do like taking good quality pictures, but without good battery life I cannot go one day trip without my phone dying. Please Please Please!!! Someone start packing a phone with at least 4000mAh of battery already XD
8. Stuntman (Posts: 836; Member since: 01 Aug 2011)
A good camera is more likely to sell than good battery life.
9. Shatter (Posts: 2036; Member since: 29 May 2013)
I rarely use my phones camera but use the battery every second the device is on.
Battery life is more important than the camera.
25. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
That's besides the point of the article, and it makes no sense to even bring that up.
10. jaytai0106 (Posts: 1888; Member since: 30 Mar 2011)
Yes and no. Average user would more than likely choose better battery life over camera. As far as in the US market. A phone with dead battery is just a very expensive paper weight. However, as far as we, geeks, on PA of course would think differ. But I would pay $200 more just for a phone with both great battery life and camera since I use my phone a lot in everyday life.
56. Darkhell (Posts: 33; Member since: 03 Nov 2013)
Get a RAZR Maxx or a S4 or Note 3 and get a extended battery offline that last 2-3 days with heavy use.
7. MarkArigayo (Posts: 240; Member since: 18 Dec 2013)
My LG G2 is more than enough for daily shots, better than Note 2. I'm pretty sure the upcoming G3 would be much better.
13. Astoni (Posts: 649; Member since: 28 Sep 2013)
LG G2 won the Camera contest on this site about 2 months ago xD IT has a really good battery life and camera.
18. Ashoaib (Posts: 3229; Member since: 15 Nov 2013)
Lg G2 won the camera contest?... nokia lumia won n samsung note3 was the close runner up despite being without OIS and far lesser in mega pixels... G2 was struggling... that roundup was on PA or gsmarena, I dont remember exactly
30. Astoni (Posts: 649; Member since: 28 Sep 2013)
ehm.. Nokia lumia wasnt even in it..
It was a voting contest without names on the pics. so public voting contest.
48. MarkArigayo (Posts: 240; Member since: 18 Dec 2013)
Ya, but so far I haven't had any troubles with my G2's camera. Even in low light condition it can perform well, better than my Note 2.
12. xoxoGeorges (Posts: 209; Member since: 11 Jul 2013)

15. zachattack (Posts: 621; Member since: 31 Jul 2013)
Theres no excuse for bad battery life or cameras now. LG stomped everyone in this regard and if they can do it, everyone else should be able to
19. Ashoaib (Posts: 3229; Member since: 15 Nov 2013)
Samsung did the best... removable bettery, so if you are wyning about bettery then you can put zerolemon 11000mah bettery to note3 n then sit back relax for 5 days.... wow samsung should pay me promotion fee

Why not phonearena mention Xperia Z1 camera in this article?
Nokia 41mp, Samsung's, lg's and HTC's.. But not Sony's?
37. tyger11 (Posts: 148; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
Sony came close with the Z1 camera, but blew it with no OIS. I have high hopes for the successor, though. There was apparently an industry shortage of OIS chips, which may have been the problem.
35. -box- (Posts: 3991; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
Nokia, as ever (either as themselves or as part of Microsoft) will continue to lead the world in cell phone cameras. We already know they can do some Lytro-like post-refocusing (with their Lumia-only app Refocus), have the best optics (Zeiss), best algorithms from top-notch engineers and photography scientists, and their purchase of (IIRC) Pelican means we may see multi-lens elements. Couple those with PureView and Xenon flashes, and every other OEM will keep falling behind.

This is exactly what's going on right now.. Basically the Lumia's have the best camera technology right now.. Now, were talking about the best overall camera technology.. Not even Lumia's are perfect, but if you want the best camera on a phone then you can't beat the 1520, or the 1020... I don't see Lumia backing down..
I'm sick of this Nokia/Microsoft confusion.. Screw it. For now I'm just referring to it as the Lumia brand.. Nobody says the "Samsung phone" or the "HTC phone"... Screw Microsoft, and Nokia... It's Lumia❕

The 1520 camera is worse then the Note 3s in most situations from motion pictures to lowlight with or without flash. The software seems to make it not work right maybe in the same manner the 1020 needed an update for its camera after launch.

3D cameras is maybe a gimmick,8MP cameras in mid range phone is amazingly good,MEMS camera is a game changer,Samsung's 16MP camera sound maybe good and Pelican's camera is shockingly inovative...
Apple PrimeSense is a bust...gimmick..

SALEM - If you're hungry for some comic relief following a contentious election season, or you just have a taste for a hearty laugh, Salem Community Theatre has the perfect recipe: a nightly dose of "Instant Shenanigans" at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 10.
The five-member comedy/improv group will be appearing live for a rollicking night of good humor, including a pre-show cheese and wine reception starting at 6:30 p.m. The show is being presented as part of the ongoing SCT Concert Series, and, like the previous two concerts, tickets are only $10, general admission, which includes the reception.
If you've never attended a comedy club, (or you have and know how fun they can be) this is an opportunity to see one of Northeast Ohio's premiere comedy troupes in action. The members of "Instant Shenanigans" include actor/singer/comedians Stacy Anderson, Joanna Andrei, Jenna Cintavey, Ryan Clausen and Jim Courim Jr., all of whom have appeared individually and collectively on theatrical stages and comedy clubs throughout Northeastern Ohio, and as "Instant Shenanigans" for three years. They have been professionally trained by the famed Second City from Chicago, Ill. You can find complete bios on all the members by visiting the theater's web site at salemcommunitytheatre.org.
Their show consists of individual stand-up routines, and improvisational comedy that interacts with and takes inspiration from their audiences, building on unlikely scenarios and situations, similar to the television show "Whose Line is it Anyway" featuring Drew Carey. The result is always a hilarious and unexpected treat that will have you grinning and laughing from start to finish. Audience participation is always voluntary, but always encouraged.
The evening of comedy is the third in the SCT Concert Series being presented by SCT. The first concert featured singer/songwriter Natalie Sprouse who sang and played to a sold-out house with her five-piece band, and the second presented a cabaret concert by Carly Magnuson and Nathan Pecchia, both seasoned stage veterans who thoroughly entertained their audience with classic and contemporary Broadway songs.
Appearing Jan. 12, 2013, will be Salem native Tania (Pshsniak) Grubbs who will bring an evening of jazz to SCT, featuring songs from her latest CD release. Her trio of musicians includes her husband, Jeff Grubbs, bassist with the Pittsburgh Symphony.
The theater is located at 490 E. State St. For more information and to purchase advance tickets call 330-332-9688. (Submitted material)

In the words of Deborah Anonie, co-owner of Echo Flooring Gallery, "We do it all."
The company, which came into existence at its Route 220 location in Linden in 1996, handles every kind of flooring option from laminate floors, carpeting, vinyl, to hard surface flooring.
It also employs its own installation crews.

CRAIG McKIBBEN/Sun-Gazette
Keeping on top of the latest trends is important to the flooring business. Currently, many people are seeking hard surfaces or frieze carpeting — a type of shag carpet that's softer and has been revitalized from its earlier form.
According to its Web site, the business is not affiliated with any buying group and deals directly with all major manufacturers, eliminating any distributor or middle man.
The Anonie family is no stranger to entreprenuership.
The co-owner said she and her husband, James, began their careers in ownership as landlords for apartment buildings and motels before trying their hand at a carpet business - an endeavor that began on a whim, and built from the ground up.
Anonie said she and James - who was employed as vice president of Jersey Shore State Bank at the time - knew nothing about owning a carpet business or what it consisted of.
But James' intelligence and passion for the project led him to Georgia to learn every aspect of what they were about to undertake, she said.
"He was in the banking business for quite a while and decided to do something for himself,'' Anonie said.
The undertaking set the stage for the couple, launching them to unprecedented success.
According to Anonie, even before the business officially opened in April of 1996, people were coming in to buy.
"When we first started, I couldn't believe it," she said.
In just its 13 years of operation, the business has spread to two locations: Beiter's Home Center in both South Williamsport and Sunbury, with an anticipated third location inside the same business in Mansfield this year.
"This gives the Echo Flooring customers and Beiter's Home Center customers the luxury of one-stop home decorating," its Web site states.
It's expansion over the years, as well as maintaining its headquarters on Route 220, has lent the business into becoming the largest carpet store in the area, Anonie said.
"We're very fortunate," she added, "but it's a lot of work."
The business has 16 people on its payroll, according to the co-owner, and has a trusted installation crew.
"Customer service is very important and we get to any problems right away," she said. "Our goal - even though we're expanding - is to still stay small enough to manage (everything)."
Echo Flooring Gallery serves a customer base that encompasses a large area that reaches up to the New York state line, as well as the Elysburg and State College areas.
"We love it," Anonie said of the job. "I wouldn't want to being doing anything any different. We truly enjoy it. It's tough - there's always new things creeping up."
For one, keeping on top of the latest trends is important to the business.
Currently, Anonie said many people are looking at hard surfaces or frieze carpeting - a type of shag carpet that's softer and has been revitalized from its earlier form.
"We've switched to offer more," she said of the trends over time, "but it goes in spurts.
"We're constantly learning new things, meeting new people from all over," she said. "It's exciting at times. We're dedicated, and that means a lot to the business."

• That concludes Hoke's presser for today -- he's in Big Ten mode, not divulging too much.
• Hoke again refuses to answer anything on this Denard Robinson kick return situation -- nothing.
• Hoke says he's not worried about Fitz Toussaint's production right now, not at all. Says he played Fitz for most of the game against Michigan State because the offense was in a rhythm with him in the game.
• Hoke now talking Nebraska's defense -- says the Cornhuskers have done a great job of creating negative plays, stuff that absolutely kills Michigan in its current offensive scheme. Hoke says he's always loved Nebraska's defense over the years - including the current group under Bo Pelini.
• Hoke says it was critical his defense hang in there on MSU's 18-play fake punt drive. Spartans only managed a field goal out of that, and it was the difference in the game.
• Hoke on the young defensive players -- says Ojemudia and Pipkins are really progressing. Joe Bolden has played a lot more on special teams lately, James Ross, also. Also he compliments Jarrod Wilson.
• Hoke says he was surprised by Michigan State's fake punt decision, says it was a "daggone good call" by Mark Dantonio.
• Hoke on not scoring any touchdowns: "They last three plays the offense had the ball, it was gratifying to see them execute as a coach. Them being able to (move the ball in a short time), they did a nice job of operating and communicating."
• More on Robinson's kick return potential, says he's not worried about injury there, says "you could walk down the street and fall off the curb."
• Robinson was on the field for one kick return Saturday. Why? Hoke: "Maybe to return a kickoff."
• Hoke admitting now that Michigan has gotten more conservative with its offensive playcalling, especially with Denard Robinson.
• Hoke says Michigan is used to playing at night, he doesn't perceive the game time as being a problem. Michigan has played at night twice this season -- vs. Alabama, at Notre Dame. Both losses.
• Hoke talking about the first Michigan State drive of the second half, says his defense played "a little looser." Says the Michigan defense didn't play together on that long march.
• Hoke discussing Brendan Gibbons' progress now, says his confidence has been big. He says the best thing Michigan ever did for Gibbons was allow him to kick in Michigan Stadium twice a week during camp -- they got used to the wind, the environment, etc.
• We go back to the Matt Wile debate -- Hoke says he's a 51, 52-yard kicker. But the wind makes a difference with that choice to choose him over Brendan Gibbons in a long-range situation.
• Hoke says he expects sophomore cornerback Raymon Taylor to play this weekend. Hoke says "I think he'll be fine." Not a definite "he's back," but not terrible news either.
• Hoke talks about playing in Lincoln, Neb. at Memorial Stadium -- a spot he's been at before as a head coach. One of the more intimidating venues in the new-look Big Ten.
• In what has become a weekly tradition now at Michigan, freshman tight end Devin Funchess remains No. 4 on the team's depth chart. Obviously that means very little.
• The game time for the Minnesota contest on Nov. 3 has still not been determined, expect that decision either this coming Sunday or next Monday.
Michigan is three games into its Big Ten schedule, and currently finds itself in the driver's seat in the Legends Division.
The Wolverines are currently the only unbeaten team in the Legends Division remaining after a 12-10 win over Michigan State on Saturday.
Michigan will put that perfect record on the line Saturday when it visits Nebraska (8 p.m., ESPN2).
The Wolverines handled Nebraska last season in Michigan Stadium, 45-17. But this time around, they'll have to deal with a wild Cornhusker crowd at night.
Follow along with MLive.com as Michigan football coach Brady Hoke addresses that, and more, at 12:30 p.m.

Sure, Johnny Depp was named favorite actor, but the moment everybody at Saturday's MTV Movie Awards is still talking about came when Eminem got cheeky and mooned the audience while he was singing with D12.
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King was named best film and was honored for best action sequence for the battle of Gondor, while the best onscreen kiss went to a three-way smooch between Carmen Electra, Owen Wilson and Amy Smart for Starsky and Hutch.
Electra – the only one of the three in attendance – collected the award from Snoop Dogg and Paris Hilton, and said: "Usually when people win this award they kiss someone, but Amy's not here and Owen's not here. So I don't know."
Snoop Dogg offered his cheek. "That's it?" said Electra, who then briefly locked lips with Hilton.
"It was very sweet and innocent," Electra assured reporters when talking backstage about the kiss. "There was no tongue. At least I had good breath."
With a drink in hand, Johnny Depp won best male performance for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, while Jack Black won best comedy performance for School of Rock – and said he would "party hardy" with the voters.
Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx presented the first award, to Uma Thurman for best female performance – in director Quentin Tarentino's Kill Bill – Vol. 1.
"Quentin spent many years writing this for me and wants to be honored as if he were dead tonight," Thurman told the crowd, as quoted by the Associated Press. "We don't have time, so I'll have to honor you as if you were living. Thank you, Quentin."
The film also earned the best fight prize and another, for best villain, thanks to Lucy Liu's head-chopping assassin role.
The evening's hostess, Mean Girls star Lindsay Lohan won the breakthrough female honor for Freaky Friday, while X2: X-Men United star Shawn Ashmore was named breakthrough male. Seann William Scott's awkward stances in American Wedding earned him the best dancing sequence prize.
Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler, after being given the prized popcorn bucket for the best onscreen team, thanked the entire state of Hawaii, where they filmed their 50 First Dates.
MTV will broadcast a cleaned-up version of the ceremony on Thursday.

In her new tune, "7 Things" – which debuted Tuesday on the syndicated radio show Elvis Duran and the Morning Zoo – the 15-year-old describes the pain of a recent breakup. In the chorus, she runs through a laundry list of all the things she "hates" about her ex: "You're vain, your games, you're insecure/You love me, you like her/You make me laugh you make me cry."
(Unlike Julia Stiles in 10 Things I Hate About You, Cyrus only makes it to seven.)
Listen to it here.
The song – which combines Avril Lavigne-style teen angst with dad Billy Ray Cyrus's country twang – is the first single off her upcoming album, due out July 22.
This Saturday, Miley will join her pals The Jonas Brothers – and New Kids on the Block – to perform at Z100's Zootopia.

Look for cockroaches, the signs they leave behind and conditions conducive for cockroach infestations. Signs of a cockroach infestation include the presence of fecal matter, egg cases, cast skins (exoskeletons), carcasses and live insects. This array of body parts and debris attracts roaches to the area. Although cockroaches will "nest" together in large numbers, they are not social insects and will cannibalize each other when food becomes scarce.

Insecticide dusts are effective tools that provide excellent penetration into cracks, crevices and large voids. Dust applied properly in a thin layer will deliver a long, effective residual, even on porous surfaces, and make harborages uninhabitable by cockroaches for long periods of time.

A broad-spectrum granular contact insecticide is also an effective solution for wide open spaces outdoors with visible cockroach activity, as well as hard-to-reach areas at the base of thick ground cover around the perimeter of structures.

Buying and Selling Real Estate in Grand Rapids: Top 4 tips!
Posted on June 10, 2013Comments: 0
The real estate market in Grand Rapids is really picking up. Are you thinking of selling your old home and buying a new one? Buying and selling at the same time can be challenging. Here are a few tips to help you along the way:
Be prepared for anything. For most people this is a stressful process, but it doesn't have to be. You are going to have to wade through things like, maybe having two mortgages at a time, or finding temporary housing. Make sure to use professionals (a great lender, and Realtor) who deal with these things all the time to take away that stress from you.
The first thing you will want to do is find a good mortgage lender. Knowing where you stand financially up front will help you make a plan. Find a local mortgage lender who can help you figure out what you need financially, what you need for a down payment, etc. Going through a pre-approval process usually helps show you the big picture. You want to make sure your credit is in good shape, you don't want to sell your house first only to find out later that you can't buy a new house with your current credit score.
Second, find a good Realtor. When meeting with a Realtor, ask a lot of questions. A good Realtor should be knowledgeable about your neighborhood and know what the market is doing near you and in the area you want to move to. Meet with them early on when you decide that buying and selling is something that you want to do. They can tell you what your home is worth and what you can expect to sell it for.
Now make a plan. Research all your options, look at temporary housing if you need to. See if you can make a contingency that your house must sell before you buy. Work with your Realtor and your mortgage lender to see what all you can do to help your plan run more smoothly. If everyone is on the same page and communicating openly, acting our your plan should be a breeze.
Overall just get your ducks in a row by meeting early with a Realtor and a Mortgage Lender early on. Have them help you make a plan for every possible snag. The more you can research and plan ahead of time the more you will decrease the amount of stress that goes into juggling buying and selling at the same time. Right now is a great time to buy and sell real estate in the Grand Rapids area just call us today to get started . We are a local Grand Rapids Mortgage Company and would be happy to help!

Atheist Delusions: The Christian Revolution and Its Fashionable Enemiesby David Bentley Hart
THIS BOOK IS IN NO SENSE an impartial work of history. Perfect detachment is impossible for even the soberest of historians, since the writing of history necessarily demands some sort of narrative of causes and effects, and is thus necessarily an act of interpretation, which by its nature can never be wholly free of prejudice. But I am not really a historian, in any event, and I do not even aspire to detachment. In what follows, my prejudices are transparent and unreserved, and my argument is in some respects willfully extreme (or so it might seem). I think it prudent to admit this from the outset, if only to avoid being accused later of having made some pretense of perfect objectivity or neutrality so as to lull the reader into a state of pliant credulity. What I have written is at most a "historical essay," at no point free of bias, and intended principally as an apologia for a particular understanding of the effect of Christianity upon the development of Western civilization.
The Devil and Pierre Gernetby David Bentley Hart
Brilliant Scholar and Wordsmith David Bentley Hart turns his mind and imagination to narrative fiction in this volume, The Devil and Pierre Gernet, a thought provoking collection of four short stories and one novella. Anticipating questions about his shift in genre, Hart writes that "God is no more likely (and probably a good deal less likely) to be found in theology than in poetry and fiction. " These stories beguile and entrance the reader through Hart's engrossing, opulent writing style and the complex characters he evokes and explores. Often bedazzling, sometimes heartbreaking, and ultimately mesmerizing, Hart's wide-ranging stories are united by a common thread of haunting religious and philosophical questions about this life and the next. Here is fiction to fully engage both the mind and the heart. Book jacket.
The Doors of the Sea: Where Was God in the Tsunami?by David Bentley Hart
As news reports of the horrific December 2004 tsunami in Asia reached the rest of the world, commentators were quick to seize upon the disaster as proof of either God's power or God's nonexistence, asking over and over, How could a good and loving God -- if such exists -- allow such suffering?
The Experience of Godby David Bentley Hart
Despite the recent ferocious public debate about belief, the concept most central to the discussion--God--frequently remains vaguely and obscurely described. Are those engaged in these arguments even talking about the same thing? In a wide-ranging response to this confusion, esteemed scholar David Bentley Hart pursues a clarification of how the word "God" functions in the worlds great theistic faiths. Ranging broadly across Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Vedantic and Bhaktic Hinduism, Sikhism, and Buddhism, Hart explores how these great intellectual traditions treat humanitys knowledge of the divine mysteries. Constructing his argument around three principal metaphysical "moments"--being, consciousness, and bliss--the author demonstrates an essential continuity between our fundamental experience of reality and the ultimate reality to which that experience inevitably points. Thoroughly dismissing such blatant misconceptions as the deists concept of God, as well as the fundamentalist view of the Bible as an objective historical record, Hart provides a welcome antidote to simplistic manifestoes. In doing so, he plumbs the depths of humanitys experience of the world as powerful evidence for the reality of God and captures the beauty and poetry of traditional reflection upon the divine.
The Story Of Christianityby David Bentley Hart
The story of Christianity is an immeasurably fascinating one. A faith that began in Roman occupied Palestine, as a small and fugitive faction within Judaism, grew, thrived and finally "conquered" the empire that had sought to exterminate it. Then, over many centuries and in many lands, it became the vital source from which new civilizations sprang. At times, its geographical range expanded mightily, at others contracted perilously. At times, the church proved heroically true to its deepest moral principles; at others, inexcusably traitorous to them. But, by the beginning of the 21st century, this faith that began in such fragility, and that became so powerful--even though its temporal power has now receded in its historic homelands--is the most widespread and diverse of all religions. Christianity is rapidly taking root in cultures very different from those in which it was born and in which it once flourished, and is assuming configurations that could not have been anticipated a century ago. In The Story of Christianity, the distinguished theologian David Bentley Hart provides a broad picture of Christian history. Presented in 50 short chapters--each focusing on a critical facet of Christian history or theology, and each amplified by timelines, quotations, and color images--his magisterial account does full justice to the range of Christian tradition, belief and practice--Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterian, Evangelical, Coptic, Chaldean, Ethiopian Orthodox, Armenian Orthodox, Malankaran, to name but a few of the many possibilities. From the persecutions of the early church to the papal-imperial conflicts of the Middle Ages, from the religious wars of 16th and 17th-century Europe to the challenges of science and secularism in the modern era, and from the ancient Christian communities of Africa and Asia to the "house churches" of contemporary China, The Story of Christianity triumphantly captures the heterogeneous richness of Christian history.

MARTINSBURG - A former employee of the West Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles office in Martinsburg has been indicted on federal fraud charges for allegedly selling unauthorized driver's licenses for cash.
Kermit Miller, 60, of Martinsburg, was named in a 19-count indictment filed Sept. 17 in Martinsburg's U.S. District court charging him with one count of conspiracy to defraud in connection with identification documents and 18 counts of unlawful production of identification documents.
The indictment was unsealed Monday after Miller was served with the charges, records show.
U.S. Attorney William J. Ihlenfeld II announced Monday that it is alleged that Miller, a former employee of the DMV in Martinsburg, fraudulently produced and distributed West Virginia driver's licenses. As part of the alleged scheme, Miller didn't require that the recipients of the licenses to complete the required applications or testing, and Miller allegedly received cash in exchange for the unauthorized licenses that he issued.
Count one of the indictment accuses Miller of conspiring with persons known and unknown to the grand jury to produce false identification documents in the form of a number of West Virginia driver's licenses not issued under the authority of a governmental entity. Counts two through 19 accuse Miller of unlawfully producing 18 licenses.
According to a copy of the indictment, the primary purpose of the conspiracy was to profit from the production and distribution of the licenses from the DMV office located in Martinsburg. The alleged activity occurred between Feb. 22, 2010, and Aug. 14, 2010.
Miller faces up to 15 years in prison on the conspiracy count and up to five years in prison on the remaining 18 counts of the indictment. The U.S. Attorney's Office is also seeking have Miller forfeit the proceeds he obtained as a result of the alleged criminal violations.
Anyone who has information about this matter or any other matters related to public corruption in the state is encouraged to call the West Virginia Public Corruption Hotline at 1-855-WVA-FEDS.
Miller's case is being investigated by Homeland Security Investigations and is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jarod J. Douglas.

Net income for the quarter ended Jan. 31 was $4.4 million, or 3 cents a share, compared with a loss of $2.8 million, or 2 cents, a year earlier, the Horsham, Pa.-based company said today in a statement. The average of 16 estimates in a Bloomberg survey was for earnings of 10 cents a share.
Toll's biggest market is from Boston to Washington, where new-home sales have lagged behind growth nationwide amid rising foreclosures in the area and threats of federal budget cuts. The company, the largest U.S. builder of luxury houses, delivered 746 homes in the quarter, about 100 fewer than analysts projected, said Robert Wetenhall, an analyst at RBC Capital Markets in New York.
"The Street thought they would deliver 850," Wetenhall said in a telephone interview. "Expectations for Toll's operating performance appear to be ahead of fundamentals."
Toll fell 3.6 percent to $35.56 at 9:42 a.m. New York time. The decline was the biggest in the Standard & Poor's Supercomposite Homebuilding Index, which lost 2.2 percent.
Builders in the Northeast had the lowest confidence level of any U.S. region this month, according to a National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo index released yesterday. The national gauge unexpectedly dropped from a six- year high.
Toll's first-quarter revenue rose 32 percent to $424.6 million, compared with the average analyst estimate of $503.6 million. Deliveries increased from 564 a year earlier. Net signed contracts climbed 49 percent to 973 homes with a value of $614.4 million.
The average price of homes delivered fell to $569,000 from $571,000 a year earlier.
Toll Brothers, best known for its large single-family houses, has diversified into investing in distressed real estate and developing urban high-rise condos, apartments and dormitories as Chief Executive Officer Douglas Yearley Jr. seeks steadier revenue through housing booms and busts. The company has a pipeline of sites for rental apartments totaling about 4,000 units, as well as two student-housing projects, Yearley said in the statement.
The housing market is recovering nationally as record-low mortgage rates and a diminished supply of existing homes on the market bolster demand for new houses. Builders broke ground in January on the most U.S. single-family homes in more than four years and permits for future construction rose, the Commerce Department reported today.
Toll Brothers shares gained 54 percent in the 12 months through yesterday, compared with a 68 percent advance in the S&P homebuilders index.

The singer, 43, who appears on the cover of the October issue of Harper's Bazaar, tells the magazine the last time she saw Michael alive was at family gathering on May 14, where they cracked each other up over Thai food. "We had so much fun that day ... [He] would laugh so hard, he would just start crying," she says.
Jackson was on the Atlanta set of her upcoming Tyler Perry movie when she heard the tragic news; she flew to Los Angeles to grieve with the family – and was there to comfort Michael's "sweet" daughter Paris, 11, after she spoke at the Staples Center memorial on July 7. "I was really proud [of her]," she says, adding that Paris and her brothers Prince, 12, and Blanket, 7, "are all so smart. "
As for how the kids (now being raised by grandmother Katherine Jackson) are coping, Janet tells the magazine, "They're with all their cousins. That family love, that will keep them going."
What's keeping Janet going is an inner strength inherited from her mother. "I always wanted to have my mother's strength, but I didn't know if it was really there. ... Now at least I know that I can step up to the plate and not crumble when I'm needed. When it comes to something like this that is so, so serious, so painful, so traumatic, I can handle it."
Brotherly LoveIn the interview, the singer, nicknamed "Dunk" by Michael, reminisces about her brother's sense of humor – "Sometimes his humor would be corny, sometimes dry," she says – and their special relationship.
Says Janet, "He was always very protective of me."
And she took care of him, as well: "When I was 14 years old, I would shop for him, washed his clothes, cleaned his room. When Mother would go out of town, she'd say 'I'm leaving you in charge, take care of Mike.' I would head home from school, see what he needed, then go straight to the stores."
Janet also reveals the origin of the now-iconic sequined black jacket Michael wore for Motown's 25th anniversary: "That's our mother's! He grabbed that from her closet!"
Expanding FamilyTwice-married Jackson, who is single since splitting with longtime boyfriend Jermaine Dupri, also talks to the magazine about her romantic prospects.
"I've had people ask me out," she says, but she hasn't taken anyone up on their offers.
As far as she is concerned, whether she ever marries again – or even has kids ("Sure, I'd adopt," she says) – is out of her hands.
Says the singer, "I'll put it like this: if God wants me to, then I will."

I am buying a new computer which comes with windows-xp. I have
a lot of computer experience, but only with secure operating
systems. I want to keep xp on a small partition in order to
look at web sites with its browser. But I want to be certain
it never attempts to fetch (and certainly never opens) my e-mail
and that it will never launch an insecure application like MS
Word from the browser.
I imagine it is going to try to call home as soon as it is
plugged in and will want me to give it my e-mail address and of
course it will have to have my internet access password. What
can I do to prevent it from doing insecure things in that first
session? (And thereafter, of course.)

text: LISBON - In Columbiana County Municipal Court, Angel L. Lake, 31, North Beaver Street, Lisbon, was fined $300, credited with nine days in jail and had her license suspended for 180 days for permitting drug abuse, possession of drugs and drug abuse. Another possession of drugs citation was dismissed. Lake reportedly had tizandine, a muscle relaxant; amoxicillin; and a syringe in her apartment on Feb. 17.

Note: This is the 25th installment in a month-long series previewing every prospect heading to the Arizona Fall League this year. You can see a complete team-by-team schedule of the previews here.
The Kansas City Royals 2013 Arizona Fall League participants will be playing for the Peoria Javelinas, along with prospects from the Houston Astros, Seattle Mariners, San Diego Padres, and Philadelphia Phillies. The Royals will be sending six players to Arizona - four pitchers, a catcher, and an outfielder.
Jason Adam, RHP - As a big, projectable right-hander, the Royals are still hoping to get more out of Adam, their 2010 5th round pick. Three years into his professional career, Adam has held his own but hasn't developed into the power pitcher the Royals had expected. He's been continually promoted despite mediocre results, spending the entire 2013 season in Double-A despite turning just 22 this past August. Potential is nice, but Adam needs to begin to get more batters out consistently and could return to Northwest Arkansas to take another crack at Double-A in the hopes of making some progress and missing a few more bats.
Noel Arguelles, LHP - The former Cuban defector has gone from a once widely-regarded to a soft-tossing lefty with a back-door hope of turning himself into a reliever. He was considered polished for a player his age when he signed as a 21-year-old, but the velocity simply hasn't been there recently and he misses almost zero bats. In each of the past two years, he's walked more batters than he's struck out. At this point, he's more name recognition than actual substance, but as a left-hander, there's always a shot.
Angel Baez, RHP - The Royals have used Baez as a starter throughout his minor league career, despite the fact that everything about him screams reliever. His premium velocity, erratic mechanics and general lack of command will force him into a relief role eventually, but for the time being, using him as a starter to get him more innings will benefit him in the long run. He'll probably work as one in the AFL, which will be interesting to see, and the sooner the Royals make the move, the sooner he can make his way to the majors.
Malcom Culver, RHP - Unlike Baez, Culver's role as a reliever has been determined for quite a while, a product both of his limited ceiling (much lower than Baez's) and his having missed the entire 2009 and 2010 seasons. He's been effective as a slightly older player working as a reliever each of the last two seasons and should spend his 24-year-old season in the Northwest Arkansas bullpen. He's probably not much more than a middle reliever in the majors.
Orlando Calixte, SS - An AFL veteran, the Royals are still waiting for Calixte's bat to catch up to his glove. He's a shortstop, for certain, but what type of player he becomes will hinge solely on the development of his bat, specifically his power and plate discipline. In his first stint in the upper minors this season, he struck out far too much for a player who only hit eight home runs. He has a future in the majors because of his glove, and if he doesn't hit enough to play every day, he'll be able to be a solid utility man all over the infield, but the Royals are far from giving up on his bat just yet. He's still just 21 so he could return to Double-A without setting him back too much, and he probably should to help refine his approach at the plate.
Cheslor Cuthbert, 3B - Much of what I said above about Calixte also applies to Cuthbert here, except for third base rather than shortstop, which limits his value and any future of being a utility infielder. Even more power was expected out of Cuthbert, but very little has arrived, even after getting him out of Wilmington. Amazingly, Cuthbert is still just 20, so there's plenty of time for his power to develop, but I wouldn't expect the AFL to be the setting in which it happens.
Lane Adams - Adams is a man without a place. He's played more center field than on the corners in his career, but he's been spending more time in left and right as he gets older and moves up. He doesn't have the power to be a productive corner outfielder, and while he has good speed, he doesn't get on base quite enough to use it effectively, although his walk rate did jump up this season. He has the makings of a tweener, but he can do enough things right that he could carve out a niche for himself.
Jorge Bonifacio - Bonifacio is the reason scouts flock to the Arizona Fall League. His on-field production hasn't matched his talent just yet, but that's due in large part to having been pushed hard by the Royals and being young for his level for most of his professional career. There's thunder in Bonifacio's bat and he does a decent job of controlling the strike zone for a young hitter facing older competition. It's all going to click one of these days soon for Bonifacio, and when it does, look out. He's only 20 and will head back to Double-A for a full season in 2014, but he's the best hitter in the Royals farm system.

1. Unno Anatomical Underwear
Via Madrid.
A sidewalk installation complete with penis-level shattered glass promoting package-plumping Unno anatomical underwear. That's a live model inside. It looks like he's wearing an ice hockey goalie's cup.
2. Deleye
Via Belgium.
Ad agency: DDB, Brussels.
3. Miroslav Underwear
Via Australia.
This is one of the rare ads I've seen where I said: "I wish I had created that."
So wonderfully bizarre, and no product shot!
Three more ads from the campaign below, plus an insane TV spot.
Ad agency: M&C Saatchi, Australia.
4. Miroslav Underwear
5. Miroslav Underwear
6. Miroslav Underwear
7. Miroslav Underwear (TV)
I have only one thing to say about this spot: I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY WENT WITH THE MAN SLEEPING FACING UP.
I LOVE this commercial. Is it the strangest men's underwear commercial ever?
Maybe. Or maybe, it's the below one.
8. Le Slip Français
Via France.
As I said last November, this is the best underwear commercial ever.
Ad agency: BETC Paris.
9. Balls Underwear
Via Germany.
Napoleon and Columbus.
Ad agency: glow, Berlin.
On Lafayette Street in Soho, NYC.
Model Clint Mauro for A/X underwear, snapped in 2007.
Only included because of the excellent location.
11. Bonds
Via Australia.
Bonds here plays on the fact that some (OK, many) men would rather get an un-anesthetized colonoscopy then throw out one old pair of stretched, ripped, stained, skivvies.
But that curry ad is just disgusting.
Ad agency: The Campaign Palace, Sydney.
12. JBS Men's Underwear
Via Denmark.
"Men Don't Want To Look At Naked Men."
So, Danish ad agency & Co. shot women wearing the product doing men things (above, masturbating). Second ad below. And here's the NSFW TV commercial from the campaign.
14. Jockey
Via Thailand.
Gleefully, in-you-face testicular advertising (look closely).
15. Styx Underwear
Via the Czech Republic.
The Styx product benefit? The backsides of their underwear are made from one piece so no fabric ever gets stuck up my crack. Or as the translated copy reads: "This is the only time when we are getting into your ass."
That is one fine piece of in-your-ass-vertising.

We're exposed to many toxins in our day-to-day lives, even as we sleep. Conventional polyurethane foams used in mattresses and cushioned furnishings release health hazardous toxins into our indoor air throughout the day and all through the night. Given how much time we spend in close contact to these foam items, you may want to consider upgrading to natural foam alternatives.
Our guide will give you all the basics you need to make healthier eco home furniture choices.
Quick Facts: Hazards Are Closer Than You Think
- 35 million tons of oil in foams and plastics: Polyurethane foam used to make mattresses and cushions is petroleum by products: toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and petroleum derived polyols.[i] The petrochemical industry has a yearly output of 700 million tons worldwide[ii] of which 5% is used to make plastics.[iii]
- Tumor-causing flame retardant treatments: Polyurethane foam burns fast and hot,[iv] which is why it's treated with flame retardants like polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), Melamine,[v] chlorinated tris (TDCPP) and chlorinated organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs).[vi] TDCPP negatively impacts fertility and tumor growth rates kidneys[vii] of which 8,000 tons are used every year.[viii] High-level exposure to melamine causes acute renal failure, urinary stone formation, and crystalluria.[ix]
- Toxic offgassing of foams in your home: Polyurethane foams release volatile organic compounds (VOCs), contributing to indoor air pollution[x] and causing liver damage, nausea, asthma, throat irritation, allergic reactions, fatigue, and a host of other health issues.[xi]
- 90% of foams tossed, not recycled: The presence of chlorofluorocarbon gases (responsible for ozone layer destruction) makes polyurethane foams unrecyclable. Of the estimated 1.5 million tons of polyurethane foam thrown away per year, 90% is landfilled or burned, releasing dangerous hydrogen cyanide, nitrogen oxides, and benzonitril.[xii]
Quick Guide: Alternative Fills & Foams
- Natural rubber foam: Made from the sap of the rubber tree, Hevea Brasilliensis (common in tropical climates), natural rubber foam is naturally resistant to dustmites and mold (so no chemical treatments required), can be easily recycled, and lasts more than 30 years without losing its shape. You can get a natural rubber foam mattress and furniture from brands like Essentia and Good Night Naturals.
- Plant-based fills: Kapok: A very light material (lighter than cotton), kapok is as soft as down and perfect for mattresses and pillows. It grows on trees in Southern rainforests in Mexico and Asia and is harvested from the tree's fruit so no deforestation is required. Kapok fiber is non-allergenic, naturally resists mold and mildew, and is free from harmful chemicals. Buy Kapok-filled mattresses and pillows through A Happy Planet and Satara Home.
- Plant-based fills: Tencel: A brand from the Lenzing Fibers of Austria, Tencel can be used on carpets, blankets, a memory foam mattress topper, and pillows. It is a product of the wood pulp cellulose from trees that grow on land that is unfit for food crops or grazing. While the solvent used for production of Tencel is somewhat toxic substance, 99% of it is recycled. Brands such as Pure Nature and Forty Winks sell Tencel-filled furnishings.
- Plant-based fills: Ingeo: Derived naturally from corn and made using low-impact processes, Ingeo is found in comforters, mattress toppers, and pillows. It is naturally flame-retardant and is also 100% made in the USA. Ingeo is sold under the Natural Living brand.
- Cruelty-free down and feathers fills: Down and feather from various types of birds may be a more eco-friendly solution than poly-foam, but it is likely not cruelty-free. Check out our guide to humane feather fashion to find out how to buy eco home fashion without the animal pain.
- Cruelty-free wool fills: Wool is naturally flame retardant and resistant to insects and mold, making it a perfect eco-alternative to foam. Conventional wool, however, comes at the cost of painful practices in the sheep industry, such as mulesing and shearing. Our guide to cruelty-free wool will guide you to humane options, or check out brands like US-made Eco wool, Pure Rest, and Shepherd's Dream.
- Government actions to ban flame retardants in polyurethane foams: Be part of the movement to compel manufacturers of things like memory foam mattress to find safer chemicals or natural alternatives to toxic flame retardants by supporting the Interstate Chemicals Clearinghouse (IC2), a collective effort to regulate the use of chemicals in consumer products.
