quote: OS X doesn't matter that much when we talk about consumer computers, so not an argument since we're talking consumer space here. Which means: if a consumer buys a standard home PC to browse web, email and chat, he/she doesn't give a jack what OS is there since there's almost no difference between 'em with regard to browsing/emailing/chatting.

quote: Hence you imply that widespread market adoption of Windows about 10-15 years ago could have been very shortsighted market's decision, eh? ;-)
quote: Question then is: can we let the market decide that Windows is best for us?
quote: It's a good thing computers finally get into the lives of simple uneducated tech-illiterate people. If MS failed to do this (they mostly conquered businesses but failed at consumer space) somebody had to do this instead and a Californian company with a perfectionist PR-savvy CEO is the best candidate. At least market thinks so and market is never wrong as you should know.
quote: MS having 90%+ of worldwide market share means they failed at consumer space?
quote: The thing i disagree with here is the sentiment that Microsoft has a monopoly

quote: Adobe has no right to have a format maintained in perpetuity. Let the market decide. Apple says no flash on our mobile our devices, buy another of the many alternative brands if you want flash.

quote: Let the market decide.
quote: if you read my post i already indicated that users have the freedom to choose what they want to buy and therefore have already addressed this issue... this is a pointless rebuttal. My point was that they are denying the freedom of running flash to their customers. It doesn't affect me, and I don't care... this was just my opinion on the matter.
quote: Adobe has a right to have any format it wants.
quote: How can the market decide when jobs is doing that for them. There are no stickers on the iphone/ipad that stat "apple will continually break comparability with flash just to prevent it from working on our devices, buyers beware". My problem isn't that apple doesn't support flash, it's that they purposefully break flash so that it can't work. They are going out of their way to ban flash outright. That's the problem.
quote: Apple clearly has another agenda that goes against real consumer interests.
quote: problems caused by Flash outweigh it's benefits when it comes to user experience
quote: What is that agenda that you claim Apple has?
quote: Isn't that crystal clear? If not here it is:1) Flash Video Streaming = competition to itunes2) Flash Games = competiotion to app store3) Flash Adds = competition to iAds4) Flash dev suite = competition to Apple's dev toolsSo, to prevent loosing market, they prevent the technology to enter their plataform.
quote: Browsing the web with Flash on (enabled by default) proved to be a pretty frustrating experience. Scrolling was jittery, slow, and sometimes pages just wouldn't even finish loading. However, once we changed the browser's plug-ins setting to on demand (think Click2Flash), the browser popped to life.
quote: the flash based games drain my battery like there's no tomorrow, at about 1% an hour.
quote: But at the end of the day, without those ads, most of our beloved web content, from news to social networks would not be financially viable.
quote: Does anyone think flashier (no pun) ads equal more revenue?
quote: ArsTechnica's review may have been technically correct (that remains to be seen from future testing), but perhaps didn't put things in the proper context.

Looks great on my 2016 Tacoma, keeps water out, was a snap to install (if you do the research and reading it only took me an hour or less alone), incredibly compact when rolled up (8 inch box IS the smallest out there), and is extremely secure. If you're on the fence, just do it. It's worth every penny.

Of course you can purchase a home property in south Florida living in Canada even if you are minutes from Alaska or Greenland ! Closing costs are sometimes a sort of little surprises for any buyer and the most experienced buyer's realtor, specially in this downturn of the economy and more specifically is the property in matter is a condo unit offered for sale as a "short sale" or "foreclosure" property sale transaction. In a "normal" market situation the closing costs can be around 1.5% of the purchase price, but today it is easier to stablish a quote based on a particular condo unit in fact and not on a hipotetical one. When purchasing a condo unit, most of the condo associations are requiring buyer bring upfront a minimun of 6 months of maintenace fees to one year , depending of the case in particular, so do the math yourself and notice that only portion of the closing costs can be multiplied up to 12 times. Besides that, buyer have to pay 0.75 cents to the US dollar per $1,000 of the purchase price just for doc stamps, so for a $30,000 purchase approximately that portion of closing costs will be $210.00 Also, tittle insurance for that purchase price will be $172.50 that is the promulgated rate in the state of Florida. Depending on the city or municipality where the property of your choice to buy is located varies the cost of the "lien search" and I am speaking of approximately $300 to $400 USD.
I have assumed that you are a cash buyer even in Real Estate nothing should be assumed, otherwise if you plan to finance a purchase of a 30K condo, your closing costs will be higher.
Due to the condo inventory is facing a reduccion in numbers of availability at the present time, I suggest you with all respects that you have to rush a.s.a.p. because for 30K is almost IMPOSSIBLE to find a turn key unit unless you have an extra of 60K just for improvements.
My business partner and I have sold a considerable amount of condo units in that price range and above it, and it usually takes long time to close the transaction no matter if financing or cash. We are full time realtors and we deliver in timely manner with precision wich really counts nowadays.Is up to you to hire the best in services!!!!

The $30,000 you mention is your budget to buy a condo or to pay for closing costs? There are no condos for $30,000 in Miami Beach or surrounding that I know of. You may find in much further areas.
But if this is not your budget than the closing costs will vary according to the cost of the condo. If you are buying cash, you are avoiding some loan fees. It is really difficult to tell not knowing your budget.
When buying a condo here in Miami make sure you have a good Realtor (I will be more than happy to represent you by the way), so he/she can show you properties that will match your needs (low maintenance, easy rental restrictions, best areas to buy etc...)
Please contact me if you need further assistance.
I love Canada by the way. Lived in Oakville, Ontario for about 6 months.
Good luck,

the closing cost for a $30,000 could vary from $1000 to $2000, but each case is different. A $30,000 usually is a cash transaction and could take 7 to 15 days.
There are several questions here, so I will try to answer them all.
First of all, yes you can certainly buy in condo in Miami, and cash is by far the easiest way, but you can finance with a certain amount down as a foreigner.
Secondly, if you have been looking you will see that you may not find a condo at 30,000 U. S.. I would suggest shopping a little to see if there is an option for you before you go much further. The closing cost will not be more than approximat;1.5% of the purchase price.
If you can in fact find a condo to purchase with cash you can close withink 30-45 days of the accepted offer.
You may not find the condo you wish to purchase when you are in Miami, you may want to retain a competent realtor to update you on the inventory daily.
Gool Luck!

I haven't given anything up, just massively cut down on a lot of less-than-optimum stuff.
The hardest? My mother's home-made cakes especially fruit cake. But I have a couple of slices a year so i'm still happy.
cereal. ugh. now I want cereal.

1. Love ME no matter what noises are screaming at me, or who is trying to tear me down.
2. Eat to heal
3. Move to live
4. Embrace today
5. Live with intention
6. Respect my body
7. Cultivate joy
8. Find my passion
9. Meditate on peace in my soul
I haven't given anything up. I eat certain things way less often than I used to, but if I really want pizza from that amazing wood fired place or some organic natural peanut butter, I eat it. unless you have a serious medical issue and absolutely must avoid a certain thing, it really isn't the end of the world to eat if every so often. hell, mark's actual primal blueprint diet calls for 80/20 adherence. so for every 20 meals you eat each week, 4 of them can be non-primal friendly and you can still consider yourself perfectly primal (by definition)
that being said, I make a point of avoiding wheat, soy, and veggie/seed oils about 99.999% of the time

Pie. Apple pie. Chocolate cream pie. French silk pie. Peach pie. Blackberry pie. You get the idea.
The only thing I have truly given up is making sourdough: bread, pizza dough and focaccia. I will occasionally eat some if i'm somewhere that has exceptional quality but there's no where near me that meets that standard so it's pretty easy to avoid.

Submission + - Is Wikipedia biased for Israel and against Palestinians? 5
An anonymous reader writes: Wikipedia's pro-Jewish bias has been discussed in Wikipedia-criticism circles for years, but today the Wikipediocracy blog ran a item relating to it that will attract controversy: it proves that English-language Wikipedia is heavily biased in favor of Israeli and Jewish subjects, and against Palestinians. And it starts with very disturbing examples — Wikipedia biographies of Israeli and Palestinian children who were killed in the endless civil war. Specifically, articles about Palestinian children who were killed by Israelis are almost guaranteed to be deleted from the "encyclopedia of record", while articles about Israeli children killed by Palestinians receive "special protection".

Battle Brews Over Bund Building in Shanghai
SHANGHAI—A rare and unusually public legal battle between two of China's most prominent property developers is raising eyebrows in the industry, as well as questions about the solidity of legal agreements there.
It also illustrates the desire of big property developers to pick up choice properties from smaller rivals weakened by Beijing's more than two-year campaign to tame real-estate prices.
A Shanghai court is expected to begin hearing arguments this week in a suit filed in May by Shanghai-based Fosun International Ltd. 0656 0.34 % against Beijing rival Soho China Ltd. 0410 0.65 % Fosun is seeking to claim back its right to acquire a piece of land near Shanghai's prestigious Bund area.
Fosun owns half the commercial land, but the other half was sold last year to Soho by units of Fosun's former partners there. Fosun claims the other half should have been offered to it first. Soho says the suit is meritless.
Other property players in the city are paying attention. "It's unfortunate that they've gone to court," said Vincent Lo, chairman of Shanghai-based developer Shui On Land. 0272 -0.92 % "But if you look at this from a positive angle, it shows that Chinese companies are trying to settle their disagreements through proper legal procedures."
Indeed, legal experts say the suit could forge new ground in an industry where legal agreements often are short and lack specifics. Local Chinese parties generally prefer less detail in their contractual arrangements, said David Blumenfeld, a Shanghai-based partner at law firm Paul Hastings. The goal is to provide guidelines through which the parties can work out later disputes quietly over the negotiating table, avoiding China's often slow and cumbersome courts.
"The question on people's minds was, how could this happen?" said one real-estate consultant in Shanghai. "They have to make sure their contracts are airtight."
The site in dispute, which covers 45,472 square meters (about 489,000 square feet), is located south of the Bund area along the Huangpu River, which cuts through the heart of mainland China's financial capital.
The winner could have an impact on the Bund's skyline. The planned building for the site will contain offices and some retail. Fosun, which calls the project the Bund International Financial Center, said it would be a landmark in Shanghai. Currently, work on the foundation of the north portion of the project is continuing, with the expected date of completion at end June 2014, according to signs at the construction site.
Fosun and Soho declined to provide details on their plans for the building, given the lawsuit.
Developer Shanghai Zendai Property Ltd. originally paid 9.22 billion yuan ($1.44 billion) to purchase the site in February 2010, as the property market still was climbing. The company sought an exit as credit dried up and the housing market soured. In November 2011, it sold half the property to Fosun and another 10% stake to developer Greentown China Holdings Ltd. 3900 -2.76 %
In December, Greentown and Zendai agreed to sell their combined 50% stake in the land to Soho for 4 billion yuan. Fosun fired back the following day, saying it was surprised by the deal, and that it had the right to buy the remaining stake.
Fosun's suit also names Greentown and Zendai. The two companies declined to comment.
The disputed transaction is one of a number by stronger players looking for opportunities in the downturn in China's property market. A number of Chinese developers took on too many projects during the market's boom years.
Shanghai recorded more than 11.7 billion yuan worth of what are known as en-bloc commercial real-estate transactions in the second quarter, up from 4.3 billion yuan in the first quarter and 8.7 billion yuan in the same period a year earlier, according to property consulting firm Jones Lang LaSalle, despite sluggish activity in other parts of the Shanghai real-estate market. Such transaction—involving existing buildings but excluding land and residential transactions—primarily include properties that developers and investors sell to one another.
"Owner-occupiers were especially active pursuing upcoming office projects in Pudong," said Alan Li, head of investment for Jones Lang LaSalle Shanghai, referring to Shanghai's bustling Pudong district. Mr. Li said he expects that volumes will accelerate should debt financing become more widely available or less costly.
As for the Bund International Financial Center, Fosun said that there is a possibility the company would move its headquarters to the new building from its current one less than one kilometer away. Owners of such buildings usually want to attract Fortune-500-type tenants.
By contrast, Soho's main customers are small and medium-size Chinese businesses, including coal-mine owners. Soho says it plans to keep and manage its 50%-owned Bund International Financial Center in Shanghai when it is completed.
Corrections & Amplifications
Chinese property developer Soho China Ltd. says it plans to keep and manage its 50%-owned Bund International Financial Center in Shanghai when it is completed. An International Property article Wednesday incorrectly said Soho's usual business model is to sell its office units on a piecemeal basis to small and midsize businesses.

ORLANDO, FLORIDA -- On October 28th I went to the above store to return a coat I purchased. I went to the CUSTOMER SERVICE Desk and got in line behind another customer who was in the process of returning an item. I waited a moment and two other women got in line behind me. Before the first woman was finished, the other two women in line behind me stepped to the side of me.
I could tell they were together and thought they were waiting for their friend to get finished with her transaction. When the clerk finished with the return, the other women stepped in front of me and started pulling items out of their bag to return. I stated, "Excuse me, I believe I was next in line?" I was told by the Clerk "Oh no, they are together". She never asked if I minded that she take them ahead of me since they were together. I would have agreed and the issue would have resolved itself. I waited for them to get finished... I was put off over the Clerk's obvious dismissive attitude towards me. I expressed to the Clerk I did not appreciate what she had done.
She again told me they were together (they came to the store in the same car???). I asked the Clerk to speak to a supervisor as I thought she had been extremely rude to me. She made a very curt reply that I could not make out and called for her supervisor. I told him what had occurred and he said he would take care of me. I could hear the Clerk making issue in the background. I told the supervisor that I did not feel this was right and I wanted the names of the parties involved and contact information for BCF so I could lodge a complaint. The Clerk turned and started yelling at me. At this point her supervisor is trying to get her to stop. She gets louder and louder.
She takes her name tag off and hurls it at me. I told her to back off and get out of the conversation as did the supervisor. It continued. I again told her to just back off. It continued. I told her to shut up. I was not dealing with her. She continued to the point her supervisor had to stand between us to keep her off of me. Had he not done so I am sure she would have hit me! Her supervisor and I walked toward the front of the store. I told her supervisor I wanted to speak to his supervisor. He said he would get him (meanwhile the clerk is still out of control assisting other customers between rants). Nobody has asked her to step away from the "CUSTOMER SERVICE" desk!
The store supervisor appears. At this point this is playing out in front of the WHOLE store. I told him I could not believe anyone could condone such activity. He told me that he had just walked up and could not take sides as to what happened and that he would have to review the "tapes" himself (even though the supervisor was present through the majority of what happened) and even though the Clerk was still wailing away in the background.
He said he could not give me any names as that was against the law and for their protection (meanwhile the psycho clerk has access to all of my information). He did provide me with a card which he wrote his first name on along with the general customer service phone number. I told him I felt like I was not being taken seriously and that nothing would be done.
The unemployment rate in Orlando is extremely high. It is beyond my comprehension BCF can't find more stable employees and if not, I would suggest that CLEARLY this employee SHOULD NOT be allowed near a customer. I expect an immediate response and can't imagine that I would not get one. My observation is the supervisor should be promoted to store manager and the clerk and store manager fired! The Supervisor is the only party that expressed his deep regrets for what had occurred.
CONCORD, NEW HAMPSHIRE -- My 14 year old son entered the store in Concord NH to purchase an MP4 player. He had the cash in his pocket. He was tailed as soon as he approached the product simply because of his age. Undaunted, he continued to shop trying to ignore that the manager had been immediately paged as soon as he went near the high end products and was now following him throughout the store glaring at him angrily. Naturally, at 14 this made him a bit nervous. He decided it was best to finish up his shopping. When he headed for the registers, he was approached by the assistant manager and told to leave.
Being rather shy, he did as he was told, but was followed still, all the way out the door. When he picked up his scooter to leave, he was yelled at by the manager to stop riding in front of the store; he wasn't. At this point he lost his patience and insisted he would be informing his parents of what had happened.
He did inform me and I told him unfortunately his age was going to cause suspicion, as unfair as this might be, and he was best advised to leave larger purchases for a day when I was with him. I promised to take him to purchase the item myself. Again my son entered the store, this time slightly ahead of me and my husband, the manager was again immediately paged to follow my son. Who, by the way, has no criminal record, nor has he ever been a behavior problem, anywhere! The child has never even chewed gum in class! I decided it was best to avoid a confrontation by simply letting it be known he was with his parents.
Again we picked up the item, again the manager and the assistant manager approached him, or rather me this time. Amazingly they admitted to having asked him to leave because he had acted suspiciously by looking at the higher priced items in the store. I informed them this was not a crime and that he had money to make his purchase in his pocket. A rather rude response followed and, as a former retail manager, I explained to him that I understood his reason for suspicion, however, the better way to handle it was to watch from his security room, or follow him discreetly, whereupon he would have seen my son pay for the item, not steal it.
He then informed me that my son was acting suspiciously and harassing the customers. I said if my son was being rude I was happy to hear his report, as this was unacceptable behavior and would be punished, he had no report. I asked for specifics, he could give me none. I asked if he'd videotaped it on his security cameras, he said that was private. I asked if he could tell me what was on the videotape, again he said that was private. I asked if he'd reported my son's behavior to the police and if so what was the claim. He had none.
"So, in other words my son came in, looked at a product he wanted to buy, decided to buy it, and was thrown out because you assumed he wasn't going to pay for it, and now you want to harass me when I bring him in to buy the item with parental assistance." I asked for his district manager's name and phone number, I was told it was private. I reminded him that I had been in retail management for many years and knew contacting his DM was not a private issue.
He gave me a phone number that turned out to be false. I managed to contact the DM anyway. I was told by the DM that the situation would be investigated. Three weeks later I have yet to hear back from him. I am appalled. My son took his business elsewhere and so have I. I sincerely hope anyone who cares for children's rights will follow suit.
HORSEHEADS, NEW YORK -- I have shopped at Burlington Coat Factory for many years, but in stores far removed from where I live in Upstate New York. Imagine my delight when one of your stores was slated to open at the Arnot Mall, Horseheads (Big Flats), NY, just a mere 20 minutes from my home! I spent a couple of delightful shopping trips at your store, some with friends, others just to browse on my own. I enjoyed the multitude of choices available in all departments.
On November 29, 2006 I made a Christmas shopping trip to the mall, and of course, I included the shiny new Burlington store. I didn't spend a lot that day - my sales slip reports $42.91. But included in that sales slip was a purchase I made for my sister – I was excited about your selection of plus-size ladies clothing. The items were on sale – 2 items at $9.99 each. What a bargain for just what I was looking for! Sadly, some time after gifting her with the clothing, she told me it didn't fit, and would I be so kind as to return them for her. "Of course", I said. I love to shop at Burlington Coat Factory!
I'm sorry to report that my positive experiences at your stores ended there. When I tried to return the items, I was told I could only receive the amount back that they were currently selling for on the rack. But, I explained, I have the sales slip with me showing exactly how much I paid for the items; and tags are all intact on the items; and I wouldn't mind taking a credit rather than money back. I can always find something I want at Burlington! I was told no, company policy said that because I had returned the items 2 days after the deadline, I was going to have to take an additional discount on both items as a refund.
I've spoken with the floor manager at your store, called Customer Relations (**, x1998)) and I am still refused the amount I originally paid for these items. I have NEVER shopped at a store that refuses to give you your money back (or a credit) as long as the items are like you bought them, and you have a sales slip proving what you paid. I could understand if this was a year later, or even a different season, but it was not!
I respectfully ask you return my complete cost of $19.98 plus tax. Please consider the loss of a customer over this petty amount, as well as a reputation as a customer-friendly retail store in this area. Enclosed is a photocopy of my sales slip, and the return slip that was not completed at the store that day. Thanks for your consideration and timely decision in this matter.
APPLE VALLEY, MINNESOTA -- On October 22, 2005, I purchased a baby gate from Burlington Coat Factory. When I got the gate home, it didn't fit the space for which it was intended. The next day I brought the gate and my receipt back to the store for a refund. I was told the store does not offer refunds for returned merchandise, only in-store credit. Their policy was not clearly posted. I was very upset and asked to talk with a manager. The manager asked me condescendingly, "Didn't you measure the space before purchasing the gate?". He said they did not have the ability to issue a refund and repeatedly referred to their no refund policy.
I told him their policy is not clearly posted and is most certainly not customer friendly. The store did not have a gate that fit my needs in stock nevertheless, as an attempt to make a bad situation better, I begrudgingly agreed to special order a gate. They applied the money I had paid for the returned gate to the special order gate and I was told I would receive a call in eight to ten weeks. I never received a call.
On June 5, 2006, I called the store and spoke with the assistant manager. I explained the circumstances, gave him the invoice details and requested a refund. He agreed failure to deliver the product was unacceptable and he would immediately issue a refund. He said I should expect to receive documentation in the mail. I never received documentation or a refund. On September 5, 2006, I spoke with the store manager on the phone. He said his assistant manager would call me back. I never received a call back.
On September 5, 2006 I filed a complaint with the attorney general. I received a response from Burlington Coat Factory's Vice President of Customer Relations dated September 22, 2006, stating I am not entitled to a refund because they issued a gift card and I am only entitled to in-store credit. (I assume when I returned the original gate and had the balance applied toward the special order, their internal accounting deemed the transaction as issuing a gift card).
On October 2, 2006, I went into the store to talk with the manager face-to-face. He said he would refund the money but ultimately did not. He told me he could not issue a refund but only offer in-store credit. I told him no. I'm going to the newspapers – they failed to deliver the product and now refuse to return my money. He said he needs to talk to corporate… then he said he needs to talk to the assistant manager to ensure a refund wasn't already issued… then he said corporate needs to issue a check in 14 days to refund and the excuses went on and on. In the end he said he would call corporate the next morning and promised to call me back the same day.
On October 3, 2006, I received a voice message from the store manager. He said he spoke with corporate and they are going to "look into it". He said I should expect to receive correspondence from them (corporate) either in the mail or by phone. No commitment to time frame or to outcome was made – it was an obvious brush-off.
The following are excerpts taken from your Code of Business Conduct and Code of Ethics written on August 5, 2004:
At Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse Corporation (the "Company"), integrity is our core value, and our good name is our most valued asset. We are committed to uncompromising integrity in all our dealings with each other, our customers, trading partners and members of the public.
Making Ethical Decisions: When faced with a decision, ask yourself these questions about the choice you are considering: How does this decision affect others (customers, suppliers, partners, stockholders, competitors, the community, other employees, or you)? How does the decision look to others? An innocent action can result in the appearance of wrongdoing, or create an unintended sense of obligation between parties. How would you feel if this decision were made public? Could the decision be honestly explained and defended? Have the implications of this decision been fully explored, or would additional advice be helpful?
I can say with confidence, this code was not applied to my situation. The dollar amount in question is not a large amount – a mere pittance to a National company, yet the company seems willing to sacrifice their own code of ethics, customer base and reputation to keep it.
CHATTANOOGA, TENNESSEE -- I placed an order online and in a three week period, only received a few of the items. I called their customer service number and sent an email multiple times inquiring on the rest of my order. After a month and a half, I finally received an email just stating that they no longer had those items in stock. I don't understand why you would sell something online that you do not have. And why you would not bother to respond to the customer to at least give them information.
ONLINE -- I have ordered from Burlington on several occasions but I think their prices on girls clothes is spectacular! But if you are in a rush to receive the clothes - then I would suggest you not order ONLINE. I received an email from January 24, 2014 saying my order had been shipped and it would take 5-8 business days. Today is February 10, 2014! This is not the first time I have experienced this issue with Burlington but it is definitely the last!
FAIRFIELD, ALABAMA -- I walked out without my watches and day later I remembered. They helped me find my purchase and help me with a smile. The honesty of the store personnel was a good sight for me. I got all the help I needed with no wait. Thank you to the team at the Fairfield, Alabama store.
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA -- Customer Service was so Rude. Enough about this store's customer service. This store has to come down eventually because of all this nonsense service. Experience: I bought a coat and showed them coupon on my phone. Cashier (boy) demanded that they can accept only paper version. Acceptable to me (prevents store fraud by their own employee in some cases). I asked if I can bring the coat and paper coupon back for price adjustment and I was told that I can do that.
Cashier asked another employee (seemed to me like store manager) about the same and I got the same answer that I can do price adjustment during my next visit. Either way no big deal, they can just process return and rerun the transaction using coupon.
I went the next day and customer service (rude/dirty) lady/girl said I have to find it on the floor and then do another transaction. I requested that I was told that I could do price adjustment by the cashier (boy) who was also present at that time at another register but again I was declined service. I asked another (nice) cashier who was behind that rude girl cashier about the matter. She informed the rude (girl) cashier that she could simply process the return and re-run the transaction using coupon.
Rude cashier snatched the coat from nicer cashier and said its store policy (as if she owns the store) that she cannot even allow the same coat to be returned to customer and I have to find a new coat from the store. What a waste of time encouraged by self made store policy.
Am I Going back over there? Never. The environment because of such employees makes experience make worse. Buying is never fun in such an environment and spending hundreds on coats from Burlington seems wasted. Store: 1563 Franklin Mills Circle, Philadelphia, PA Date: 11/05/2012 Time: Around 7:30pm.
CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA -- On April 1st, I purchased a few baby items from BCF. The items, with tax, totaled $11.90. I thought I had made a terrific purchase, as I had bought other baby items for my son's baby at other stores, where the prices did not seem as fair. LITTLE DID I KNOW! When I went to purchase the items, using my debit card, I put my PIN number in, and the clerk stated that it "did not go through" and would I put the card PIN through again. That did not seem unreasonable, and I made sure that my purchase was only listed one time, for $11.90 on my receipt. After I got home, I went online to my bank account to look over purchase activities.
The $11.90 showed up, and was debited, twice. I went back to BCF on April 2nd in the late afternoon. I had already spoken by phone with the stores manager of that day, who advised me that I would need to bring in my receipt and proof of the double-debit on my bank record, and that the info. would have to be faxed to the corporate headquarters! I had never heard of such a thing, having had stores such as Petco accidentally charge twice for a purchase, and they readily corrected their error at their stores.
So in order to get back my $11.90, I drove all the way to the BCF, incurring the cost of gasoline (due to driving distance from my home) as well as my own time, which I also value. After giving my receipt and banking record page to an associate at BCF, I was told that they would need to make copies and fax the information to their headquarters. I was then told that the associate would call me to let me know when the headquarters answered their fax.
WELL... here we are on April 4th, and no phone call on the 2nd or the 3rd, and I finally called this associate this morning. She "explained" that there were circuit problems through the store organization, and that she would check into the situation and call me back. She also said to keep checking my bank account to see if the error had been taken care of, and my money refunded. Well, it is now 4:31 P.M., and: a. No phone call back from the associate, or anyone at the store; b. No reversal of the extra set of charges on my account.
Am I to assume that when a mistake is made by an employee, the computerized cash register system, or whatever, that I need to just "swallow" the extra set of charges, thereby costing me $23.80 instead of $11.90?
I am furious. I realize that other customers have had far worse experiences, but I think I have give them ample time to respond and take care of this. I welcome anyone thoughts on this. Thank you.
EDMONDS, WASHINGTON -- I only get out without my kids to shop about four times a year. Yesterday I had one of these opportunities. One of the items I wished to purchase was a toddler dress. I found it on a rack with other items that looked to be on a sales type rack in the back of the toddler clothes section. When I went to the cashier she had a hard time ringing that item up because the bottoms that come with that dress where missing. I told her that was OK I assumed that was why it was the only one left in the jumble of other clothes on the rack I found it on. She called a sales representative from the kids department who then looked for the bottoms. I was in a hurry and said that's fine I'll pay for it as it is.
She said she couldn't do that. The sales representative came without the bottoms. The manager was called and after waiting all that time she said that she could not sell me the dress as it was. The reason was that they couldn't separate the outfit. I said there were no bottoms with it and the sales representative couldn't find it either. The manager said that she couldn't sell me the dress for full price. I said I'd pay less for it then. The manager then said that she couldn't do that either because if I returned the dress I would get more money back for the dress than I paid since in their system it would show I had paid full price. I was not happy.
They had wasted at least 15 min. of my time while I was in a hurry and in the end the best they could do was ask for my phone number and call me if they found the bottoms! I can't believe that a store would not let me purchase something they had on their racks to purchase. I can't believe they would choose to lose money by me not purchasing an item they had for sale!
Plus I can't believe they would call me a thief in that they assumed I would be dishonest and return the dress to gain a few bucks! Plus I still don't see why they wouldn't have just sold it and put a note on the sales receipt. I have normally been very happy with Burlington Coat Factory but this put a real stink on them for me.

5 Seconds of Summer Make Chart Debut As 'Perfect' EP Sales Forecast Sizzles
By Keith Caulfield, LA and William Gruger, NY
The Australian pop-rock quartet 5 Seconds of Summer, which opened for One Direction on the bulk of its 2013 arena tour, is tracking to make a very splashy debut on the Billboard 200 albums chart in two weeks.
Its four-song EP, "She Looks So Perfect," is due out April 1 in the United States on Capitol Records. The set could sell upwards of 150,000 to 200,000 copies in its first week, according to industry forecasters.
That sizable prognostication is based partly on robust pre-orders of the set in the iTunes Store, in addition to first-week performance of comparable albums, media exposure, radio and YouTube trends for an album's first single, and so on.
Related Articles
As always, a forecast can be wildly different from the final outcome. In general, one can best guess an album's debut sales week once it's actually on sale.
The band actually makes its Billboard chart debut this week, arriving at No. 25 on the Social 50 (dated April 5), thanks to the international release of the EP last week.
The Social 50 ranks the most popular artists on YouTube, Vevo, Facebook, Twitter, SoundCloud, Wikipedia, Myspace and Instagram. The chart's methodology blends weekly additions of friends/fans/followers along with artist page views, song plays and reactions as measured by music analytics company Next Big Sound.
The buzz around the EP debut equates to a 68% rise in weekly conversation across Facebook and Twitter about the band, which helped lead to the addition of more than 128,000 fans on Facebook (up 62%) and 59,000 on Twitter (up 55%).
On Instagram alone, the band received a 78% increase in activity as the platform was utilized to showcase the band's promotional tour.
The band's current single, "She Looks So Perfect," is bubbling under the threshold of the Pop Songs airplay chart (known as Mainstream Top 40 on billboard.biz and in Billboard magazine). In the week ending March 23, the song was being played on 32 monitored top 40 stations, including KIIS Los Angeles, WBBM Chicago and WIHT Washington, D.C.
The group is heading out on the road for its first U.S. tour, starting April 11 in San Francisco. They'll later join One Direction yet again, as the opening act for the Europe, U.S. and Canada legs of the British group's stadium tour, starting on May 23.

Symphony No. 13, Op. 113 (Babi Yar)
Study Score
Orchestra (Score)
Study Score. Composed by Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975). Study Score. 232 pages. Sikorski #SIK2207. Published by Sikorski (HL.50480403).
Item Number: HL.50480403
6x8.25 inches.
The Symphony No. 13 in B flat minor (Op. 113, subtitled Babi Yar) by Dmitri Shostakovich was first performed in Moscow on December 18, 1962 by the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra and the basses of the Republican State and Gnessin Institute Choirs, under Kirill Kondrashin (after Yevgeny Mravinsky refused to conduct the work). The soloist was Vitali Gromadsky.The work has five movements: 1. Adagio (Babi Yar) 2. Allegretto (Humour) 3. Adagio (In The Store) 4. Largo (Fears) 5. Allegretto (A Career)The work sets poems by Yevgeny Yevtushenko on the World War II Babi Yar massacre and other topics. The first poem, Babi Yar, criticises Soviet anti-Semitism and official indifference to the Holocaust. The second, "Humour", personifies humor as a mischievous rascal who constantly eludes official attempts at censorship and silencing. The third, "In the Store", is an ode to the hard-working women of the Soviet Union, always tired from standing in long lines at the store, often in bitter cold. The fourth, "Fears", recalls the pervasive atmosphere of dread during the Stalin era, and the final poem, "A Career", is a celebration of Galileo's refusal to recant his discoveries about the nature of the heavens, even in the face of censorship and threats from the authorities.The symphony was completed during a thaw in Soviet censorship, but even so Nikita Khrushchev criticised it before the premiere, and threatened to stop its performance. The premiere went ahead, but afterwards Yevtushenko was forced to change his poem, replacing a stanza declaring in part "I am every old man shot dead here, I am every child shot dead here" with a stanza mourning the ethnic Russians and Ukrainians that died alongside the Jews at Babi Yar. Thereafter the work was infrequently performed until more recently.Shostakovich originally intended the first movement to stand by itself, but ideas kept coming to him and he had to expand the work into its current symphonic form.

I have been looking at these online, and they look really nice. Does anybody have any first hand information about these bouncers/rockers? Also, i have found a used one online for $100. Should I get it?
Anybody have an opinion about the 4moms bouncers?

I have no personal experience with them, but in reading online reviews, it seems that they break a lot. We have the MamaRoo on our registry from BBB, b/c they have a great return policy. I buy many things second hand, but I wouldn't get one of these from CL.

We have a mama roo and it works fine but our boys get bored and fussy in it in a few minutes. They're 8 weeks. They seem to prefer a basic bouncy seat. I have friends and family though who swear by it.
Posted 08/19/2014
My suggestion (and I speak from personal experience) do not buy it until baby is born. When he was a newborn he stayed there because he had no other choice LOL, but noooow that he's more awake (2 months old) he HATES it. We had to buy a cheap Fisher Price bouncer, and this, he loves.

Ford to Invest $135m to Speed Next-Gen Electrified Vehicles to Market
Ford Motor Co. will double its battery-testing capabilities by 2013, add more jobs, and shift the design, engineering and production of key components to its Dearborn, Mich. headquarters, as part of a $135 million investment aimed at speeding up the development of its next generation of electrified vehicles by at least 25 percent.
Ford says it will reduce the cost of its current hybrid system by 30 percent from its previous generation system. The automaker is launching five electrified vehicles this year as part of its strategy to triple electrified vehicle production capacity by 2013 and offer more choices to consumers.
The five electrified vehicles are the Focus Electric, which went into production in 2011, C-MAX Hybrid, C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid, the Fusion Hybrid and the Fusion Energi plug-in hybrid.
Ford's new hybrids and EVs aim to directly compete with Toyota, the market's electric and hybrid vehicle leader. For example, the C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid, which will come to market this fall, has a projected electric-mode miles per gallon equivalent that is more than three times that of the Toyota Prius plug-in hybrid per EPA testing methods, Ford said.
The automaker said it has dedicated a 285,000-square-foot research and development lab in Dearborn to focus almost entirely on hybrids and electrification. The building, now called the Ford Advanced Electrification Center, will house most of the 1,000 engineers working on hybrid and electrification programs.
Ford says it will double its battery-testing capabilities to a total of 160 individual battery-test channels by 2013. Ford will invest in more of the highly specialized machines that can test and simulate power, performance and thermal behavior over a complete range of temperatures and possible operating conditions.
Earlier this month, Ford announced it will invest $220 million to transform Van Dyke Transmission into an operation capable of producing Ford's new hybrid transmission, HF35, as well as other fuel-efficient transmissions. HF35 will be used in five electrified vehicles being introduced this year, including Ford C-MAX Hybrid, Ford C-MAX Energi Plug-in Hybrid, Ford Fusion Hybrid, Ford Fusion Energi Plug-in Hybrid and the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid.

MUSIC REVIEW; The Details Illuminate The Whole
By JON PARELES
Published: October 12, 1995
Mary Chapin Carpenter has a gift for details. In her lyrics she hears the way an old staircase groans, sees a cup of coffee growing cold, recalls how a young bride wore her mother's lace. And when she brought her band to the Paramount on Tuesday night, the music was full of subtleties, as when the country-rock of "I Take My Chances" faded down to a ticking cymbal and veiled guitar chords. Her straightforward voice rarely calls attention to itself; she warms melodies, enunciates words and lets ballads grow tender but not sentimental. Her attention to small things serves a larger purpose: to illuminate everyday lives by showing them clearly.
The characters in Ms. Carpenter's songs aren't heroic. They're adults who have settled down but don't feel settled; they endure breakups, abandonment and uncertain new starts. In "The Last Word," a resolute march, the narrator decides, "I'd rather walk away"; in the bluesy "Shut Up and Kiss Me," a woman drops her own reserve. Ms. Carpenter's characters are scarred but determined, and they don't expect much. But they are, in the end, willing to try again, and to have a good time when they do.
Ms. Carpenter records for Columbia's Nashville division, has won country Grammy Awards and is heard most often on country-music stations. But she doesn't pretend to be a country gal. She grew up in New Jersey, Japan and Washington, and most of her songs are closer to folk-rock and to 1970's confessional ballads than to three-chord country tunes. In her more ambitious songs, she looks beyond the domestic sphere: "John Doe No. 24" imagines the life of a deaf and blind man, institutionalized for 49 years; "I Am a Town" sketches a landscape of a place that's "a blur from the driver's side."
Ms. Carpenter performed while surrounded by framed pictures (including two Hoppers), black-and-white photographs of couples and various keepsakes, each lighted for the appropriate song. But that was the least subtle aspect of a concert that cracked a few jokes and touched a lot of heartstrings.
The Mavericks, a band from Miami that opened the show, are classicists who set out to preserve 1950's and 60's Americana. Their own songs sat comfortably alongside "Blue Moon" and "Tonight the Bottle Let Me Down." They followed the genre rules for rockabilly, honky-tonk country, folk-rock and Tex-Mex pop, with lyrics that were archetypal and earnest: "I should have been true."
Raul Malo sang with poised, earnest sincerity, particularly when his voice climbed toward Roy Orbison peaks of vulnerability. Yet in its flawlessness, the music was also hermetic and studied until the Mavericks played "From Hell to Paradise." That song, about Mr. Malo's grandmother leaving Cuba after 30 years under the Castro Government, took on a passion that was more than archival.

The affiliate of New York's Museum of Jewish Heritage that runs the Auschwitz Jewish Center, a museum and synagogue in the town that gave its name to the concentration camp complex, is raising money on Kickstarter to open a café in the home of the town's last Jew.
The AJC sees Café Oshpitzin, which means "guests," as both a small restaurant and a place for public discussion programs and informal dialogue between tourists and locals, according to the project description on Kickstarter:
"Café Oshpitzin will be a place for guests – a welcoming vegetarian café that uses local products and celebrates local food culture whenever possible. Currently, there is no place like this in Oswiecim, which has just a few pizzerias, a Turkish kebab bar, and a KFC – all fast food – not local, homemade products with the slow food approach of our café."
On the planned menu: pischinger, a chocolate wafer cake; regional cheeses like the salty, smoked oscypek and beers brewed just an hour away.
The café project is part of a larger effort to save the home of Szymon Kluger, who died in 2000. While the AJC has already raised the funds to repair the house, which it says on Kickstarter "in serious danger of collapse," it still needs $25,000 to create the restaurant and is struggling to generate that support.
Donors have only contributed about $7,000 so far, and if the initiative doesn't meet its $25,000 goal by May 13, it will lose what has already been pledged.
