Elderflower cordial
Hello everyone,
New here to the site and forum. I have a question about finding a substitute for Elderflower cordial. I'm from the states and am having a tough time finding it but also a finding a substitute. Any ideas? Thanks a million.

Re: Elderflower cordial
Elderflower unsurprisingly has a summery flower fragrance, so, perhaps use clear lemonade or make a simple syrup...equal sugar and water heated till sugar is dissolved and a few drops of orange blossom water or rose.
If you go with lemonade add a little sugar as cordial is very sweet. But any fruit cordial would substitute, match to the fruit you are planning to use, although if you want to see the fruit suspended in the jelly go for a light colour.
Good luck and welcome, let us know how it goes.

Excellent garage with great customer service. Will defo use again.
Patrick came to pick the car up, we discussed the repair that the car needed along with a few other things I've noticed. He went away and completed the job in good time, returned the car with no issues. Repair was a good standard and the handling is perfect now, the other issues he checked for free and advised on what may need doing in the future. What more could you ask of your mechanic? I will use Patrick & Automotive Components Specialists in the future, 10/10.
Patrick was upfront and gave honest advice. He arranged to have the car picked up and dropped it off himself. The work was completed quickly and the car is sounding much better now. Thanks!
My local garage was trying to charge me a fortune for A DMF and clutch for my Skoda Octavia .So I thought I'd do some research and ended up on this website .The First person to quote was Patrick and from then on it was a pleasure dealing with him .I never even saw his garage in Enfield ,he picked my car up for free in Kilburn and had it back within 24 hrs completed .This guy lives ,eats and breathes cars ..especially clutches I think ! He answered all my questions and I got a really good price and also new front shock absorbers and a years warranty on parts and labour .Check out all his awards -I'll definitely recommend him to everyone David (Kilburn )
excellent service very quick and honest would highly recommend. Patrick is very helpful and friendly .
Provided me with a full service on my Range Rover. A really friendly and helpful company who i would highly recommend to anyone.
It took a few attempts to get the job completed. Its not perfect, but I'm happy with the outcome.
I would highly recommend this garage for excellent service. Just picked up my car and it drives like new. Honesty policy .. everything that he changed the old parts were shown. I had a little rattle on the car that no longer exists, one bulb was changed and he didn't charge for it. Engine compartment was cleaned and treated. Glad I've found a mechanic I can trust. Already given his business cards to my neighbours. The price I paid for the service and all the extra work I requested.... was the same as the quote. I'm a Very Happy Customer. Thank You.
A reliable and honest repair center. The garage kept me informed of the progress of my car. The staff are very knowledgeable of cars and their customer services skills are excellent. Keep up the good work and I have recommend this garage to family and friends as the service is excellent .
Brilliant job, used best quality parts, perfect workmanship and friendly and efficient staff. Will definitely use again.
Good garage, they managed to source the part within the day and fix my air-con on the next day within less than 2 hours on the price of the quote. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable and very transparent on the way they work. Although it's a small garage and doesn't appeal to the eye when you first arrive I'm very happy with them and would definitely recommend.
Great work, will be going back if need anything.
I have given my feedback directly to ivy at galaxy autos
100% Happy . Genuine business and professional . Returned on the day quoted and the clutch is smooth . Ivy and the mechanics are a good team delivering good service at a genuine price . Would use again and would also highly recommend them
Great job was done. Highly recommended.
The service I recieved was really good but they weren't able to fix the fault

Mike carried out a full assessment and recovery. Fault with engine mount and timing belt repaired and maintenance on other reported faults carried out. I highly recommend.
I want to thank Michael Morrison, the owner for all the help offered me and for the great job done! He was the only one who accepted the job in the website whocanfixmycar.com , and he fixed my car in the same day. He didn't take advantage that everyone. and he didn't charge me on excess. I only paid the labour job) and a very low rate for work.I strongly recomend SPHYNX VEHICLE REPAIRS to all vehicle owners who need to fix their car, I found SVR from Who Can Fix My Car site.

The new Tour Edge XCG 4 Fairway is the most advanced and sophisticated fairway wood Tour Edge has made to date. Advancements in weighting technology increases the launch angle for a higher, boring trajectory that increases carry yardage and roll out. However, these advancements are only the beginning with the XCG4. The most improved feature of this fairway is the power that it produces thanks to the newly patented Boomerang face technology. The Boomerang face is constructed of SP700 Beta titanium that includes multiple levels of variable face thickness. These v-shaped, boomerang zones allow for maximum elongation of the titanium for enhanced feel and maximum rebound effect. The XCG 4 is paired with a premium Fujikura Motore graphite shaft for unparalleled feel and performance. Tour Edge has built a monster of a fairway wood here and although it is priced higher than other fairway woods on the market, it is well warranted.

This is a fact, confirmed over and over again. These people will be in the schools soon. Shopping malls too. Soviets on steroids.
''RB: So you think they are separate agendas? That's funny. The coming collapse of the U.S. dollar is a done deal. It's been in the works for years-decades, and this is one of the most important cataclysmic events that DHS is preparing for. I almost think that DHS was created for that purpose alone, to fight Americans, not protect them, right here in America. But that's not the only reason. There's the gun issue too.''

Video: Female Democratic lawmakers refuse to speak out against Bill Maher's misogynism
posted at 4:15 pm on March 7, 2012 by Tina Korbe
The president and liberals want to talk about a "war on women"? How about the war on conservative women? It's happening, but liberals prefer to stay silent about it — when they're not directly waging it.
For years, comedian Bill Maher has been one of its generals. One of the most egregious examples of his disdainful derogation and objectification of women whose political ideology he despises was his disgusting denouncement of Sarah Palin as a "c-nt" at a live show in Texas last March. As, so far, I've never yet heard teenage girls affectionately refer to each other by that term (please may that always be the case!), I'd say Maher's misogynistic vocab word was worse than Rush Limbaugh's "sl-t." (For the record, though, I wish that term were out of use, too.)
Nor do I recall Maher ever apologizing for his affront to SP. Yes, yes, I know: Sarah Palin is a national figure and Sandra Fluke is ostensibly a private citizen (more like a seasoned activist) — but, while that difference might make Limbaugh's rant regrettable for another reason, it doesn't make Maher's laudable. At issue here is the language they used — language that President Barack Obama, to judge by his condemnatory remarks of Rush, supposedly wants to be eliminated from the public discourse entirely (and I agree — it should be!).
If that's the case, how can the president possibly condone the Alabama Democratic Party's decision to recruit Bill Maher to headline a fundraiser March 17? How can Obama not denounce the $1 million donation Maher made to his Super PAC?
Sarah Palin asked the same question in a recent tweet.
"Pres. Obama says he called Sandra Fluke because of his daughters," she wrote. "For the sake of everyone's daughter, why doesn't his super PAC return the $1 million that he got from a rabid misogynist?"
If Obama is anything like the female Democratic lawmakers in the above video, though, he'll opt to say nothing rather than vocally distance himself from Maher.
Another erstwhile soldier in the left's war against conservative women is typically non-political-but-always-pushing-the-envelope comedian Louis C.K., whose one-time rant against Sarah Palin rivaled Maher's worst insults in its crudity. Far from calling him out, the MSM has decided to reward him. The Radio and TV Correspondents Association invited him to host its annual black-tie dinner in June. (Somewhat O/T but important: I'll forever think this bit from Louis C.K. is one of the funniest and most spot-on pieces of social commentary I've seen a comedian deliver. Notice that he didn't have to insult a single female to be funny!)
Two examples among many. As Townhall.com's Carol Platt Liebau pleads, "Uniform standards, please!"
Update: Interestingly enough, Bill Maher recently came to the defense of Rush Limbaugh and said liberals should accept his apology. Still no apology from Maher to Palin, though.

Reviews of this property
The house is really nice and we can only recommend this. It is even more beautiful than in the photos. We stayed 2 weeks in the autumn of 2014 in the Villa Silvina and we did not miss anything. Only disappointment was that we had to clean the apartment on its own after a week and the replacement sheets were put down only at the entrance and we had to do this myself. We're not used to us by Mallorce FINCAS, especially not in this price range.
Das Haus ist wirklich sehr schön und wir können dies nur weiter empfehlen. Es ist noch schöner als auf den Fotos. Wir waren 2 Wochen im Herbst 2014 in der Villa Silvina und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Schade war nur, dass wir nach einer Woche die Wohnung eigenständig putzen mussten und die Ersatz Bettwäsche wurde nur beim Eingang hingestellt und wir mussten dies selber tun. Das sind wir uns doch von Mallorce FINCAS nicht gewohnt, vorallem nicht in dieser Preisklasse.
Reviews for this host's other properties
Its a fantastic Finca in the countryside of Mallorca but still very close to Santa Margalida. It has a beautiful, large and clean pool. The sourrounding yard is decorated with beautiful flowers. The house is decorated in an "old-fashion/classical" style and very cosy. The furniture in- and outside is very comfortable and solid - no plastic chairs or similar. The interior gives you everything you need: A huge fridge including 3 big ice buckets, a washing mashine, a barbeque on the terrace and a nice outside-couchplace. The kitchen provides any tool you´d need. Well, I could write a novel about the beauty of this place...
Last but not least we had very nice expirience with the daughter of the owner who visited us the second day in order to ask if everything is okay and to give some info about garbage and electronics.
To make a long story short: We had a fantastic stay and we will come back to this beautiful place a s soon as possible.

Why did WSDOT close the viaduct in October 2011?
We finished building the first of two side-by-side bridges that will replace the viaduct's southern mile. On Oct. 21, 2011, we closed SR 99 and began demolishing part of the viaduct. When SR 99 reopened to traffic on Oct. 29, both directions through SODO traveled on the new bridge. We then finished demolishing the viaduct's southern mile without disrupting traffic on SR 99, and began building the second new bridge. How to access the viaduct after the closure
Drivers can access the viaduct as they did before the closure. Northbound drivers enter SR 99 from South Royal Brougham Way. Southbound SR 99 drivers access SODO by exiting SR 99 at South Atlantic Street. Learn (pdf 512 kb) more about how traffic changed during the course ofconstruction.
Traveling on a new bridge Both north and southbound traffic travel on the first of two new bridges. The second new bridge is scheduled to open to traffic in 2013. When the new roadway is complete, the west bridge will be used for southbound traffic, and the east bridge for northbound traffic. Using a construction bypass Drivers pass through a construction bypass between South King Street and South Royal Brougham Way. The bypass connects the new SR 99 bridge to the viaduct at South King Street. It keeps traffic on SR 99 moving while work continues on the viaduct replacement. South of South King Street, SR 99 has two lanes in each direction. North of South King Street the viaduct remains in its current configuration with three lanes in each direction.Reducing the speed limit The speed limit on the majority of the viaduct is reduced to 40 mph. The construction bypass carries an advisory speed limit (pdf 751 KB). The map below shows the construction bypass and reduced speed limit on SR 99.

The room contains 1 double bed, two small night tables, a table with two chairs, a gigantic dresser/wardrobe unit, a shelving unit, heater and big windows. If you are traveling with more people, I do have another room in the apartment for rent (just ask for availability. The kitchen is fully-equipped, containing a stove, oven, sink, microwave, refrigerator, kettle, coffee maker,cooking supplies and utensils. The entire apartment is supplied with toilet paper, dish washing soap, hand soap, and garbage bags. The bathroom is broken up in to two rooms - one with a shower and another with the toilet. There is a washing machine in the kitchen.
The location of the apartment is on Revolucni street, nestled quaintly between Old Town Square and Namesti Republiky. If you look out the window, you could see the boats floating along the Vltava River. The street, Revolucni, has lots of history. This particular area of town is filled with fun and interesting things to do and see. There are bike tours, walking tours, river boat rides, and other fun stuff located within walking distance. Letna Park, which has a beer garden overlooking the city, is just across the river and up the hill. (Highly recommend going there for an afternoon) The grocery store is a 30 second walk and there is a 24 hour non-stop convenience store located on the street. There are two large shopping malls located a minute away.

The flat itsself is located in a beautiful old house. The rooms are very big and equiped with a large table, which comes in handy as you cannot dine in the kitchen. You share the flat with another group of 2-3 people (two bedrooms in total). We don't mind that in general but nearly everyday our flatmates changed, so they did not really treat the bathroom and toilet very well.
This is probably one of the major issues in the flat - it's not very clean and also it might be a good idea to exchange the shower curtain...
The elevator is very practical because the flat's on floor 6.
Lindsey, who welcomed us, gave us some good advice and was very friendly.
Right in front of the house, there's a tram station which runs all night, a close hospital (a lot of ambulances) and by night there's also regular cleaning machines. This makes it impossible to sleep without earplugs or anything similar.
It's extremely noisy - that you should really bare in mind before booking.
All in all, it's an affordable place in Prague but don't expect too much comfort.
Prima verblijf gehad.Prima appartement kregen we tot ons beschikking. Het zag er verzorgd en netjes uit. Al met al zeer tevreden! We hebben erg genoten van onze vakantie in Praag!
das Zimmer war gross und sauber, alles Funktionierte einwandfrei. Wir wurden freundlich und unkompliziert empfangen. Ich war sehr zufrieden und werde mir bei meinen nächsten Pragaufenthalt dasZimmer erneut mieten.

The apartment is right in the heart of the city. You don't need train or tram. It takes about 20 minutes walk to Old Town Centre. It's very safe as there is a police station right opposite of the apartment. The bedroom is so big and clean but the only thing was the bed, the mattress was too soft and deep inside and I got backache when I woke up. Toilet and kitchen is so clean. The price i also very reasonable. Hope we could visit Prague again soon and will definitely come back to stay!.
We had a great time in Prague. Viola let us in and showed us our room and gave us a map. She pointed Some Nice things on the map which we did, and it Where fun things that were not Very touristic. The room was nice, only the light did not work, but there was a small lamp that worked. The kitchen was organised and sometimes Viola was there so we could have a Nice chat, and ask her anything. Thank you Vincent and Viola.
The apartment was good, the room spacious and very close to the old town (not even 5 minutes to walk). Lots of restaurants and bars around. Vincent's assistant is a very nice and friendly person, always willing to help and answer all our questions.
The Flat was clean and Vincent and his assistant Lindsey are very friendly! She told us everything we need to know about the flat, the house rules and Prague itself.
The flat is large enough for 9 people but you need a bit of time management to get all 9 people through one bathroom with the only toilet in that flat.
For the breakfast we need to carry all the tables and chairs in one room so that we can launch all together because there is no real kitchen. And if you like to drink coffee you should better bring a coffee machine or at least a filter holder! Using a coffee filter inside a sieve is funny but need a lot of time and intuition ;-)
However, for that price I think the flat is fair enough for 4 stars and I really liked the close location to the center of Prague!
Thanks for the nice time!
Very nice and helpful host; great location! well, value for money

Creative Inspire 5300 Speakers
Posted by
McGuire on June 20, 2002
Manufacturer: Creative Product:
Inspire 5300 Speakers
for Inspire
With every new soundcard line Creative launches, they also get
ready a complimentary
range of SoundWorks speakers to come along with them. In fact,
with the Audigy introduction, it came the Inspire line of 2.1, 4.1 & 5.1
systems; later on the MegaWorks 2.1
& 5.1 systems were also released though targeted to the higher
end market.
The Inspire 5300 speakers come as budget 5.1 system,
essentially replacing the DTT 2200 much like the
Inspire 5700's replace the DTT 3500 system. Retailing in most places
for less than
$90, maybe and this is exactly the kind of system you were looking
for, read on...
& Connectivity
Installing speakers is always a long
enough process; what with taking everything out of the box,
then taking each speaker out of the little box that it's
been packed into. Then you have to mount them onto their
stands. Certainly it takes a lot longer than installing a
new soundcard. Connectivity is provided via 3 stereo
mini-jacks – 1 for Front left/right, 1 for Rear left/right
& the last one for Centre/Subwoofer. After positioning
the speakers and subwoofer I had to run the cables into
the Subwoofer & connect the Subwoofer to the Soundcard.
Finally I placed the "remote" volume control of sorts
behind my Keyboard for easy access.
The only thing that felt missing
from the package were stands to mount the Rear Speakers onto
(All speakers use the same small mounting bar the Centre
which has an optional mounting, though a wall mounting is
supplied also). Seemingly the stands were omitted to keep
the cost down to a minimum and are available
separately at the Creative
website. Rather than the old tripod mounting you've
seen with the DTT2500 & other Creative systems the
Inspire 5300 (& 5700) uses a monopole metal stand
instead, supposedly as they provide far greater stability
– though not having them I can't really comment too much
more on that.
soundcard connectivity, the Inspire 5300 provides 3 analog inputs only,
as was already mentioned.
This shouldn't be of any problem for those with 4 channel
only Soundcards, e.g. Hercules Gamesurround Fortissimo 2,
though for other 6 Channel capable Soundcards the single
Centre/Subwoofer input might require an adapter or 2, as
would be the case with the Game Theater XP, whose rack
features separate Centre & Subwoofer outputs and as such require a single mini-jack to dual RCA cable
to connect from the Center & Subwoofer outputs of the
rack (though it does provide 2 mini-jack outputs for Front
left/right & Rear left/right channels).
Those of you
using a SoundBlaster Live! 5.1, Audigy, Extigy, nForce (with
motherboards that come with the add-on bracket with the Rear
& Centre/Subwoofer analog outputs, e.g. Abit
NV7-133R), Philips Acoustic Edge or Seismic Edge 5.1
soundcards do not need to worry about this though. Also, no
mini-jack to dual RCA cables are required to get 6 Channel
analog output with the system – This may well be the case
with other 6 Channel analog capable Soundcards, though
I've none others at my disposal (It shouldn't be too
hard to check this anyway) which would allow this.

At Mayo Clinic, we take the time to listen, to find answers and to provide you the best care.
Diagnosis of multiple system atrophy (MSA) can be challenging because there's no test that can make or confirm the diagnosis. At the same time, certain signs and symptoms of MSA — such as muscle rigidity and unsteady gait — also occur with other disorders, such as Parkinson's disease, making the diagnosis more difficult.
As a result, some people are never properly diagnosed, although doctors are increasingly aware of the disease and, thus, more likely to identify its symptoms.
If your doctor suspects multiple system atrophy, he or she will obtain a medical history, perform a physical examination, and possibly order blood tests and brain-imaging scans, such as an MRI, to determine whether brain lesions are present that may be triggering symptoms.
You may receive a referral to a neurologist or other specialist for specific evaluations that can help in making the diagnosis.
One procedure that can aid in the diagnostic process is a tilt table test to help determine if you have a problem with blood pressure control. In this procedure, you're placed on a motorized table and strapped in place. Then the table is tilted upward so that your body is nearly vertical.
Throughout this maneuver, your blood pressure and heart rate are monitored. The findings can document not only the extent of blood pressure irregularities but also whether they occur with a change in physical position.
Doctors may order certain other tests, to determine how your body is functioning. Tests to assess your body's involuntary functions may include:
If you have sleep irregularities, particularly if they involve interrupted breathing or snoring, your doctor may recommend having you evaluated in a sleep laboratory to determine if you have an underlying and treatable sleep disorder, such as sleep apnea.

Another message for you. I am teaching teachers in a university. They ve been studying english for many years so they know a lot about grammar and stuff. They especially want to speak and listen. I have 8 hours with them every week. So, I realize it is a big challlenge to do this for the next 15 weeks.
But the main problem is that they come and go. I can never predict how many students I will have because some of them have classes, some of them are sometimes busy or they are just not willing to come everytime, and I understand these reasons. Consequence: I cannot have a structured plan for them.
Do you have any suggestions to give me so that I can keep on my teaching with originial activities every classes while knowing that I might have 15 students on one class and 6 the next? Each class is from 2 to 3 hours.
Thank you again

I have been involved in diesel trucks for 10 years rite up till I was forced to retire, truck driving was the best job I have ever had. I am now a stay at home dad raising 4 terrific kids who Shaired my interest in the Silverado we just purchased. Nothing better than sharing what knowledge I have in this field with kids. I was trained as a diesel mechanic with the United States Coast Guard then went into truck driving.

I love working on the diesel truck just boggles my mind that they fit all that equipment under such a small hood. The engines I trained on we're 2 1/2 stories tall, what a difference.

Wellington might have been hosting a glittering movie event yesterday, but next Tuesday it's Auckland's turn to focus on the local film industry with the inaugural Sorta Unofficial New Zealand Film Awards, which have been given the affectionate nickname The Moas.
For a while it didn't look like there would be a local film awards ceremony this year, with New Zealand movie makers left out in the cold after the national telly awards dropped film categories from their annual prize-giving. But it turns out they're still getting an annual gong-fest to call their own, thanks to the organisational skills of Hugh Sundae of nzherald.co.nz and local film guru Ant Timpson.
Presented by the New Zealand Herald and Rialto Channel, The Moas will be held at The Wintergarden at The Civic on Tuesday night, and will celebrate the past year's Kiwi flicks great and small, with categories for fully fledged features, cinema-aimed documentaries, self-funded features and short films, and a judging panel made up of not only local industry members but a wide array of important eyes from international film festivals and companies.
The Orator and Two Little Boys lead with 11 nominations each, but there are many impressive cinematic projects getting recognition, and you can join all the fun by watching a live stream of the event, including all the awkward and amusing acceptance speeches at nzherald.co.nz/themoas.

Rectangular landscape-format publicity booklet, in the form of a spiral bound photo album.
This booklet was issued in 1985 by Channel 7 to publicise the launch of its new drama series `Neighbours', which first went to air on March 18th of that year. One of a very small print run, they were sent to reviewers, media outlets and advertisers to promote the program and its cast and crew.
Physical Description
Rectangular booklet, landscape format, with thick card covers, spiral bound with white coated wire along one edge. Inside are eleven black card pages, interspersed with thick off white tissue paper. Printed inside are details about the series, a cast list, photographs and details about the actors and their characters (two per page), production details including details about the crew, and synopses of the first two episodes. The cast photographs are glued in to give the effect of a photograph album. All the pages and covers are bonded with a clear plastic coating.
This booklet is significant due to its links to the early days of the Melbourne-produced televisions series Neighbours. First airing on Channel 7 in March 1985, it was axed after 170 episode, due mainly to poor viewing figures in Sydney. It was picked up by Channel 10, the first time this had every happened in Australia, and has played on there continuously since 1986.
In 2010, it celebrated 25 years of production, making it Australia's longest running drama series, and its 6000th episode went to to air. During that time it has been screened around the world, and has been particularly popular in Britain and throughout Europe. Many tourists to Melbourne still seek out Pin Oak Court in Vermont South, which doubles as Ramsay Street, or take part in Neighbours tours or theme nights at local pubs. In 2009, it was watched by over 3 million viewers in Britain each day, and is thought by many of them to be representative of life in Melbourne.
The program essentially follows the lives of six households at the cul-de-sac end of Ramsay Street, in the middle-class suburb of Erinsborough. In earlier days, the fictional suburb was located in an unidentified Australian city. However, by the early 1990s a conscious decision was made by the producers to place Ramsay Street, and the program, in Melbourne.

The Long Game On Obamacare Repeal
posted at 2:14 pm on November 26, 2012 by Duane Patterson
Last week, when John Boehner proclaimed Obamacare the "law of the land," conservatives reacted with the same off-with-his-head comments they do whenever they perceive caving to be taking place. But Boehner and the Republicans in the House don't seem to be caving on their view of Obamacare. They just seem to be altering their tactics, considering the political landscape that the country faces now.
Whether we want to believe it or not, Barack Obama will be president for four more years, and will not sign any repeal that makes it through the House and Senate. And believing that any repeal bill would even get brought up for a vote in a Senate is a bigger fantasy than believing the Arab Spring will turn out just fine. So how do we continue to fight this battle, knowing as we do that Obamacare is bad law, bad policy, bad health care, and bad, bad, bad for the U.S. economy? Two fronts.
First, the House Ways And Means Committee will have to take a large role in the next few years overseeing the implementation process. HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has already balked at providing information and documentation to the committee, and hearings are going to have to ramp up. In a Politico article this morning, Speaker Boehner is quoted as saying in a letter to fellow Republicans earlier this month, "I've long maintained there are three possible routes to repeal of ObamaCare: the courts, the presidential election, and our constitutional responsibility for oversight," Boehner wrote in a letter to House Republicans earlier this month. "With two of them having come up short, the third and final of these becomes more important than ever."
He's right. Stunt votes of repeal, knowing it will go nowhere in the Senate, will not do this time. The bill is 2,000 pages of fraud and bureaucracy, and Congress has to do the best they can to pick away at it, and the Caucus has to continue making the case to the American people that the program will eventually collapse under its own weight, and we've said all along there's a better way, and this is what that way forward should be. Unless, of course, the Supreme Court takes another bite at the Obamacare apple and strikes it down.
As Ed wrote earlier on Hot Air, just because the election is over, the legal challenges to Obamacare have not gone away at all, and with a piece of legislation this massive, that is this overarching, it can't help but raise significant Constitutional challenges the deeper you get into the implementation process. It's a rotten onion, and it stinks more with every layer you peel back. Alliance Defending Freedom has at least one challenge pending that has a pathway to the Supreme Court regarding the HHS regulations, and Fox News talked to Jordan Sekulow about another similar challenge coming, this time from Hobby Lobby.
The road to repeal has gotten considerably longer and narrower. But this is another battle on which conservatives, despite the odds, should stand their ground and fight. Either we believe in our core principles of adherence to the 1st Amendment, and limited government, and individual choice, or we don't. And if we don't, we're not a serious political movement any longer.

Belk building new store in Bristol, Tenn.
Will open at The Pinnacle off I-81
BRISTOL, Tenn. - The Belk store in the Bristol, Virginia Mall will be moving.
The retailer announced Wednesday it will relocate that store across the state line to be part of The Pinnacle development in Bristol, Tennessee. The project's developer says the store is set to open in May of 2015.
It will be one of at least two large anchors stores in the 250-acre Pinnacle shopping complex. Work on the other, Bass Pro Shops, is already underway at the site along I-81.
Belk says the present store at Bristol Mall will remain open until the new store opens in 2015.
Bristol, Tennessee officials says they're expecting major revenue from tax dollars. "In the long term it also provides an opportunity for this city to have a revenue stream to help us do other projects like build schools, take care of our roads and basically serve our citizens," says Bristol, Tenn. Deputy City Manager Mike Sparks.
Across the state line in Bristol, Virginia, officials are working on their own development called The Falls.
We contacted several Bristol, Virginia city officials and management at the Bristol Mall, but no one wanted to comment.
Bristol, Virginia plans to make their own announcement about The Falls on Thursday morning.
Bristol, Tennessee officials say there's going to be a regional impact from the new developments and the announcement of Belk will have a domino effect, bringing other stores on board.
"This really helps set the stage for multiple announcements after this," adds Sparks.
The developer at The Pinnacle says they have about 20 letters of intent with stores that will be turned into contracts and expects more announcements coming soon.

I hope Bob Whitney's excellent and frightening open letter to the mayor about the CalTrans boondoggle is made publicly available to all local citizens. He has done us all a favor by summarizing some of the egregious faults of their design.
For instance, a two-way two-lane route is unsafe, because CalTrans totally refuses to place a median divider. This is straight out of the Rove Handbook on pettifogging the issues. If you do not have a central divider on two-lane highways, there are more deaths, as Whitney cites.
So CalTrans rejected a two-way, two-lane option. Why? Because it is unsafe. Why?
CalTrans refuses to construct a median, as if to make sure it is unsafe. No doubt CalTrans PR office will say CalTrans only wants to save lives. So why not add a median? And the answer is no, just no. Aand yet this is precisely what CalTrans has in store for us for Phase One-a dangerous two-way, two-lane route without a median.
This safety concern and others only arrive with Phase Two, but there is no ironclad assurance there will be money for Phase Two-a screaming six-mile long, I-5-style freeway, where drivers can get their final ya-yas out speeding across the valley before spending hours and hours along the slow 30 mph curves of Ecotopia.
Until then, about six years from now, maybe, we get the two-lane, two-way route without a median, nor viaduct access routes in case of emergencies.
Whitney argues for a route along the railroad right of way. If so, don't you think that in between the rails would be a very nice, natural, no brainer kind of place for a central median?
Whitney's article also touches on a number of other issues in environmental impact not considered for the present design.
Above all, the city really needs to look at this crazy thing again. Don't forget, the pi?ce de r?sistance is the gutting of Little Lake itself. The Army Corps of Engineers says it can just move the wetlands to another place-they've never attempted something like this before; it will be experimental.
Anyone with a lick of historical background about the Corps large-scale construction projects will only tremble when they hear this. Please, don't let this happen.

text: I bought my 2008 Silverado 1500 about a year and a half ago. one of the first things I did was purchase a RC leveling kit. Well it came with a 1" spacer for both sides and I had to cut down the bolts on the struts that attach to the body then take the left strut and face it back words and put it on the right side of the truck and vise versa, all via the instructions. I called rough country during install to make sure I wasn't crazy and they reassured me I was not. Am I crazy for actually doing it? Also my truck does not sit level. The only reason I have not called and complained to them is cause I'm going to lift it soon. Will what I did effect my lifting it?

We stayed in this apartment for the second time. It is simply superb. Very well maintained, very good service. I recommend it without restriction.
Wir waren zum zweiten Mal in diesem Apartment. Es ist schlichtweg hervorragend. Sehr gepflegt, sehr guter Service. Ich kann es einschränkungslos empfehlen.
The location is excellent, very well located and has everything you need for a good stay. Mariusz is very helpful and very friendly. It helped that we had a mishap so I am very grateful.
El lugar es excelente, muy bien ubicado y tiene todo lo necesario para tener una buena estancia. Mariusz es muy atento y muy amable. Nos ayudó con un percance que tuvimos por lo que le estoy muy agradecido.
The appartment was very nice with a high standard. Wlan for free, even a 5:1 surround DVD player with a big TV-Screen. Everything was clean. It was in the middle of Kazimierz in a very nice surrounding. The service was great. I can highly recommend it. Mariusz speaks german and english and is very friendly and helpful. Next time in Krakow I will rent this appartment again.
Very nice situation, in the middle of the jewish district. The room is nice, clean, with everything you might need during your stay.
Central, busy location in the heart of the Jewish district of Kazimierz. Old Town of Krakow reached on foot or by tram well. Very neat, clean apartment with good facilities (eg cooking facilities). Friendly service.
Zentrale, belebte Lage im Herzen des jüdischen Viertels Kazimierz. Altstadt von Krakau zu Fuß oder mit Straßenbahn gut zu erreichen. Sehr gepflegtes, sauberes Appartement mit guter Ausstattung (z.B. Kochmöglichkeiten). Freundlicher Service.
Beautiful furnished apartment in a central location, very comfortable beds! Is above a pub but you have not affected.
Mooi ingericht appartement op een centrale locatie, heel comfortabele bedden! Is boven een café maar daar heb je geen hinder van.
Very nice and clean appartment in the area very close by the center of Krakow. Really enjoyed my stay there. The television receiver broke down and whas replaced immdiately, and we didn't even watch the television :D
the room was very agreable, clean and comfortable. the host was also very welcoming
Great location, comfortable room. Would recommend to anyone
The wifi didn't work, we were given no instructions how to get there, the towels smelled so bad and the people who stayed in the same flat were not respectful to our belongings. I also asked for help with the wifi password and received no answer. It's also terribly loud. This place is great for the price and being close to the Jewish area (great night life) but you could get a hostel for even cheaper because that's pretty much what it is.

OSCP and Pentesting 101
The OSCP exam seems to eat up a lot of time for a lot of individuals taking the exam. Time is crucial in this exam as you are going to be allotted 24 hours. In the real world, your SOW will also have a cut off time. So how can you maximize your time without having your work all over the place. The answer is to create
yourself a framework.
In the following mindmap (http://www.infiltrated.net/mgz/oscp.jpeg), I have a target and the tasks I would take in trying to exploit the target. In the enumeration/identification step, I will begin with, but not rely on, NMAP. I try to use p0f whenever possible since it offers a better mechanism of identifying a target.
I try to use p0f especially when identifying webservers, since I can use a proxy server to connect without triggering anything out of the ordinary. In the following snippet, I will connect from my desktop (FreeBSD 9.0) to a forensic workstation I created using Ubuntu, on port 80.

We can validate whether or not out nmap output is accurate but we can assess how long the server has been running and get an idea of the patch level of a machine. Now, in order to minimize time, I might sweep a subnet for specifics: HTTP, SMTP, POP and so forth. The reasoning for this, is that when under time constraints, it allows me to focus specific attacks and probes against those specific targets that I know are running the service. This allows me to spend time elsewhere (running other nmap sweeps, etc)
For example, I can sweep a /24 for ONLY port 80, begin launching more probes in the background, while I launch other scans and other probes at another service.
In any event, if you're doing ONE thing and ONE THING only on the OSCP exam, you're wasting time. There is nothing stopping you from opening a terminal and creating your own little framework for doing this exam:
Get the picture?
1) Make relevant directories (way beforehand)
2) Enter a target
3) Go check if the target is running anything on port 80
4) If it is, then run nikto against it
5) When done write it everywhere in case I am on 50 different terminals
You can continue something like this to fire off dozens of tests, probes, and so on. What you do with your time is always going to be critical since time is irreplaceable. Same applies when performing real world testing. You may be in a bind for time, if you're waiting on the output of one tool, you're wasting time. Moving back to the mindmap, take some time to think about a structured way to attack this exam. There is no reason you cannot fork off processes way before you even get started. Practice in your own environment:
Same applies in the real world. When performing tests, it is critical that not only you perform necessary testing, but it is also critical you manage your time while doing so. (Time is money) Creativity goes a long way in this field (pentesting) however, it makes no sense to throw paint on a canvas and once done, determine you are now going to start painting the Mona Lisa. Planning goes a long way
Food for though

Minority media rights, terrorism laws at issue in Roj TV case
French satellite provider Eutelsat announced yesterday it is suspending Kurdish satellite station Roj TV after a Danish court last week levied a hefty fine against the satellite station for promoting terrorism. Eutelsat's decision comes despite Roj TV's appeal before the Danish High Court, which is pending. The case has implications for how media content is evaluated, the rights of minority media, and how terrorism laws are balanced with human rights.

BELLEVILLE, MICHIGAN -- I want to post this as a word of warning to potential future buyers of RV's from Walt Michaels: DON'T. We have had such an upsetting and costly experience with Walt Michaels that I wouldn't buy a camper from these people again if they were the only people selling them. I would rather go without. And I love camping! It is very clear when you deal with this company that they are sued often. You have to sign an arbitration agreement and release of liability for everything you want done there.
The first time we bought from them we purchased a beautiful, large camping trailer. The salesguy told us our Jeep Liberty could tow the 7000 lb trailer with no problem! Luckily we suspected otherwise and looked in the owners manual. We bought another truck! Unfortunately this camper had a leak we didn't know about at the time of purchase, but noticed soon after. After 2 years of constant visits to the service department, it was still not repaired. Since the warranty was expiring and the walls were starting to rot, we were forced to trade the trailer in on a new one or we would be stuck with a useless camper we still owed money on that was unrepairable (according to them).
Of course, no other dealer would even look at it as a trade, and we couldn't in good consciousness sell it on our own, so we were forced to trade it through Walt Michaels. They were only too happy to do this since we were then upside down on our loan. We traded it in on another camper that we do like very much, but had to finance a lot of extra money on. We purchased this second camper in the late winter.
When we came for our walk through to teach us how to use the thing, after waiting for over 2 hours when we had an appointment, the technician didn't even know where the sewage drain was or most of the other accessories or how they worked! Luckily we were experienced enough RVrs to figure things out on our own.
The last time we dealt with Walt Michaels, we brought the camper in for a few little items that should have been covered under the warranty, since it was only a couple months old. The step was difficult to move, a drawer glide was broken, the door lock was sticky etc. No big deal. When we arrived, this woman came out to inspect the camper for exterior and interior damage. We had to sign a waiver saying that they were not responsible for any damage that occurred in their lot. Then after writing down what we wanted done, she insisted that we sign a form saying that we would pay for any repairs not covered under the warranty. No problem.
Then we were told we would not be given any estimate of repairs, or be notified if any of the repairs weren't covered under the warranty. They would just fix it and we would have to pay for it regardless of how expensive the repair was. I refused. I had never had a repair done where they didn't give you an estimate first! I certainly wasn't going to give them free rein to charge me anything they wanted.
When I told her this didn't sound right to me, the woman told me I had to leave or she would call the police and have me forcibly removed from the lot! She was swearing at me and totally lost it! I was stunned! Trying to maintain my calm, I told her this is where I bought the camper and all I wanted was to have some warranty work done since they were the people who should cover the warranty. She told me I was now banned from ever getting any work done there and never to come back! When I told her this was crazy and I wanted to talk to the service manager, she told me she was the service manager!
I told her I wanted to talk to whoever her boss was. I was led into the building and told that he would be in a meeting for over 2 hours and I could wait if I wanted to, but they threatened that if I said anything to anyone else they would call the police and have me arrested. I waited over 3 hours and no one ever came out to talk to me in spite of several inquiries to the secretary. I left and have never been back.
I have since taken my camper to Lloyd Bridges in Chelsea MI and they have always been very friendly, prompt and accurate in their repairs. Last time I was in I paid to have the Walt Michaels decal taken off the back of my camper, and the staff was saying how they are always getting unhappy Walt Michaels customers in their shop and showroom.
Some of the stories they have to tell make my experience seem almost fun by comparison. However, I will tell you it was not fun. By selling us the first flawed camper and mysteriously never being able to repair the leak, we were roped into lots of extra repair bills and another camper sale with no ability to negotiate a fair price. They conned a lot of extra money from us.
BELLEVILLE, MICHIGAN -- We went to Walt Michaels in the spring of 2002 to look at Pop-up campers. We did not want to buy a used camper and end up with a duct tape special so we purchased a brand new pop-up. When we did the walk through our sales person just pointed out "here's the stove, fridge, AC etc..." When got the camper home and set it up to show our friends we realized that the canvas had 2 areas where the stitching was coming out and the zipper around the door was also broken.
We called our salesperson who said we should make a report but if we wanted to use the camper for the summer we should wait and bring it in the fall or they could have it ALL SUMMER to repair it.... A new replacement camper was out of the question. We went camping the following weekend only to discover that we also did not have curtains in our brand new camper so we could not change out clothes inside it and the propane tanks that were supposedly FULL at purchase were empty.
We called our salesperson and he said he would order curtains and they would be in next week. We called him every week and were put on hold and NO ONE ever returned our calls. We made several trips out there only to get the runaround. FINALLY they gave us a set of curtains out of another camper but those did not match our interior.
In October we took out camper in to have the stitching and zipper fixed and were told it would take about 1 month. We called every month and IF WE actually got to talk to someone it was always "no, not ready yet." We went out there again in February and were told that the canvas had just been sent out for repair and would be ready in a month. Not ready in March, April or May! We went out there again and had words with Ms.** who told us to leave or she would call the police..... Mind you our camper has sat there on the lot for 8 months of us making payments for a camper we can not even use!
Then a few weeks later they tell us that the canvas has been lost in shipping and somehow they do not think they should have to pay for a new canvas! They tell us we have to deal with the company that LOST the canvas. We contacted an attorney who was very familiar with Walt Michaels POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE - he called the place WALLY WORLD! It took another 6 months of court hearings so no camping in 2003 & still making payments on a camper we do not even have.
In the end "Dutchman" offered us a brand new travel trailer in replacement of the pop-up! We had it sent to General RV as we did not want to go to Walt Michaels EVER again and Walt Michaels had to pay our legal expenses.
BELLEVILLE, MICHIGAN -- I am currently in the process of purchasing from Walt Michaels and I recommend you take your business elsewhere. I'm wishing we had read these other reviews before stepping foot on their lot. Everyone seems to have the same story. My husband and I were given the runaround by the salesman, meaning he did everything he could not to lie to us but still didn't give us full disclosure. We weren't able to get any solid info regarding interest rates and payment amounts until they had DRAFTED the loan agreement. Why I went through with any of this I will never know but hopefully my posting will save the next poor sap the same disappointment.
Long story short, we signed the documents but before leaving the parking lot I had some misgivings. I read and reread the fine print and was VERY uncomfortable with the deal. We went back in and talked to the sales manager who assured us he wanted us to be happy but that it was a done deal. I told him that didn't make me happy, that we wanted time to think about it. This is also what I told the salesman all along, that I wanted to make sure my HOLD deposit was fully refundable in case I changed my mind, and I told the finance girl that the payment was too high and I just felt like I shouldn't go through with it, to which she responded by shoving another document at us.
I don't know why I didn't just walk out the door then. At any rate, I feel that I was duped by these people. We had to talk to ANOTHER manager who pulled us into the office with everyone else we'd talked to so there were 6 of us, including my husband and me. They basically brow beat us and I told them that's exactly how it felt and that I didn't trust the deal. I was told that since it was Saturday there was nothing they could do, that had it been a week night she could just call the bank for us. She said she'd call first thing Monday and get back to us.
It's Monday and it's almost noon. I did hear from Walt Michaels... the shady salesman called to give me a freaking insurance quote!!!! The docs we signed that they want to hold us to state that we'll get our own insurance through our current provider. I found an email address provided on this website through a response posted by ** in IT at Walt Michaels. I've emailed him the entire breakdown of what happened that day and asked that he give me some kind of contact info for ANYONE who can help make this right.
My husband just talked to Mr Shady Sales, too, only to discover that this new $25K unit doesn't even have a TV.... even though Shady went on and on about it when we walked through the trailer, nothing would have led me to believe that a TV wasn't included. I will let you know if we are able to reach any kind of agreement or to leave with any satisfaction at all. At this point we're looking at being the owners of a brand new bare bones camper that we don't even want based on the experience we've already had with the dealer. I hope that you read this and ALL other posting (good or bad) before investing in an RV with Walt Michaels.
BELLEVILLE, MICHIGAN -- This is not a total "negative" review about Walt Michael's Rv in Belleville, Michigan. This is (hopefully) information for anyone considering going there to look at a new/used RV/travel trailer. My husband and I have been looking for a new travel trailer. We found one we fell in love with at Walt Michael's RV.
We went to W.M. dealership knowing full well their policy of "extra fees". We were met by a young salesman whose name escapes me. We were only there to look but were told they needed our names/address BEFORE we could look. We were escorted to a desk and grudgingly gave them our personal information. We were walked outside to the trailer and looked at it. The young man was not prepared to open the slide and we had to walk back to find a charger and then we were walked back to the trailer as it is a company policy you can not be left alone in one of their units.
Upon return to the trailer my husband and I both asked about their "prep fees"...by the way they WILL charge you $1,000.00 for prep. ANYWAY when we asked our salesman about the fees we were informed that it was for "fabric prep, gas tank filling, a complete going-over etc". Let me say to you all... DO NOT go anyplace where their "prep fees" are THIS MUCH! This is a total and complete rip-off! WHY oh WHY (and I did ask this question) do you NEED so much time/money to get a BRAND NEW trailer ready??!! I have NO problem paying for a service and paying a REASONABLE fee but this is just plain highway robbery!
By the way we own a pop-up and it does NOT cost THAT much to fill a gas bottle. Prep fees aside we went back to the desk so my husband could get their "bottom line". Our salesman left with a sheet of paper to speak to the sales manager whose name is **. FIRST OF ALL... IF anyone here from Walt Michael's sees this... HIGH PRESSURE sales are OR should be a thing of the PAST! ** needs to go back and re-learn the art of the deal badly!
He gave my husband his bottom line/out the door price which was ONLY good RIGHT THEN (we were informed that as soon as we left the deal was OFF THE TABLE!) ** put the sheet on the desk with black marker scribble all over it and it said NOTHING we could read... no number break down, no figures clearly written... just black marker scribble. (NOT ONLY were they going to charge for prep we also had to pay an additional 850.00 for their freight/delivery on that trailer PLUS the taxes, plates, title.) We figured there were about 1,850.00 in EXTRA fees at Walt Michaels RV.
My husband and I left there laughing all the way to the car. Was the price good? No. Did they "deal" with us? No.
I am only writing this because we took TIME and spent a LOT of time doing research on prices, makers, options and my advice to anyone looking at a travel trailer/RV is BE INFORMED! Know your product and prices and values. Paying EXTRA HIDDEN fees or paying THAT MUCH for prep is up to you... IF you feel you are getting what you are paying for.
ANYWAY.... long story short.... Or just a long story! We ended up at ANOTHER dealer near Lansing, Michigan and got a FANTASTIC deal on a new trailer (THOUSANDS LESS then Walt Michael's) the deal was seamless, NO prep fees and the manager of the dealership we purchased from wants a happy customer.
My husband and I are going back this Saturday because they want US to personally inspect our trailer and look for ANYTHING wrong or ANYTHING we feel needs to be changed. They DO prep our new trailer but they want EVERYTHING to be right and they want us to be totally happy when we drive away with our new purchase. What a novel idea? By the way... gas fill-up is FREE there for new trailer purchases.
NO PRESSURE/CUSTOMER SERVICE.... Both my husband and I feel Walt Michael's RV needs lesson's in BOTH!
I am waiting for someone from Walt Michael's to call us and ask us if we are still interested in that trailer...I want to personally thank them for making our decision to buy from another dealer SO EASY. I hope this helps someone out there looking.
Walt Michaels RV promised a lot at time of purchase. Items would be taken care of. Particular items were to be replaced not repaired and I made the salesman scratch out repair and write replace on the agreement. Months later parts came in. I brought the trailer back for the repairs with the "promise" that the repairs would have to be done in time for a planned trip. "WRONG". Having to pick the trailer up before the repairs were complete I noticed that the dealership was trying to "repair" items instead of replacing them.
They had no intention of replacing parts all along. The sales and service dept. were no help at anytime with anything. I've been in their business a few times with friends and family looking for an RV. After experiencing their rudeness and lack of professionalism they end up somewhere else.
MICHIGAN -- I have read numerous complaints about the dealership where we bought our motorhome and have to agree that the service is poor. We live 70 miles from the dealership. We purchased a 2004 Discovery Motorhome, 3 slides, with a lot of luxuries. We were also talked into buying the 7 year extended warranty. Lo and behold the regular warranty and the extended warranty is not backed up through the dealership and they cannot give us addresses, dealerships, that will back up the warranties.
Every attempt to get service done on our RV has cost us large amounts of money out of our pocket. Every time they say the warranty doesn't cover anything. It's an all day job to take the motorhome to the dealership, and of course we have to leave it with no idea when to expect the work to be finished, then another full day to pick the motorhome back up. They've had to remove a cup holder to get to the wiring, after getting the motorhome back, the cup holder was missing.
They said they didn't lose it and we'd have to order another one which would take about 2 weeks. We left a full list of items that needed repaired, nothing was repaired and the only explanation we got was they couldn't find anything wrong. It's now 2007 and the wiring still hasn't been corrected. There's no way imaginable that anyone can believe how much we've put into this motorhome. We've spent endless hours on the phone with them and also calling different dealerships to see if they can help us. I have a bill to pay tomorrow to replace the wiring and the inverter. We currently have the motorhome in Louisiana and had to find a repairman down here. But nothing is wrong with it.
The only assistance we got was we finally contacted a freight liner company and they accepted the warranty and replaced the alternator. We didn't get that phone number or address from the original dealership. A dealership that replaced all 4 batteries got us hooked up with the freight liner company. In the early months of 2006 we had to unhook the motorhome in Florida and take it to be repaired. These are all day jobs. We've had a lot of repairs done and a lot of replacements done at our expense.... except for the alternator. The traveling satellite could not be fixed at the dealership. They had no knowledge on how to repair it. We had it repaired in Florida. I could go on and on.
Why did we pay for the extended warranty? Every time we call the dealership they try to talk us into trading it in. OH, on top of everything else, after returning home with the motorhome and leaving for vacation, we only had one set of keys that were in the ignition, the second set of keys belonged to someone else's rv. So someone else ended up with our keys. When we got to Florida we didn't have any keys to unlock the under compartments. I will never buy from this dealership again.
Somewhere between here and there, all my original paperwork has come up missing. I've tried calling the dealership to get duplicates to see if anyone in LA will honor the warranties so I won't have to pay the $2000.00 repair. They're closed for the week. I didn't know businesses like that closed for the whole week.
BELLEVILLE, MICHIGAN -- This I hope will be helpful for anyone considering purchasing an RV from this dealership in Southeastern Michigan. This incident happened back in 2001 and I still hold a grudge to this day. We went to visit this dealership back in June of 2001 on a Saturday with the hopes of just browsing and getting some ideas for a travel trailer. We were told of Walt Michaels because of the sheer size and quantity of inventory and it was very impressive.
After traveling around on a golf cart for nearly 2 hours my wife (who just gave birth and had our 2 week old son with us) decided we might as well go ahead and give into the pressure and just purchase one because we did not want to have to go through looking all over again. The salesman was very helpful and we felt we got a good deal on the RV we wanted. Being new to the RV scene we went to go finalize paperwork. After the initial price agreement, Walt Michael now added over 1,000 dollars to put a hitch assembly on our Van. Then we were charged another 1,000 dollars for what they called some sort of start up fee.
This merely consisted of having someone show you where the stove and microwave is in the RV and fill the propane tanks. Before we knew it, all of the money that was taken off of the initial price of the RV was added back on. We went ahead anyway and purchased the RV. The real problem began when we went to pick up the RV. I had left my Van 2 days earlier to get the tow package installed and have it ready for us by our scheduled arrival date and time. When we got there, they had not even begun to work on our Van. We had to wait 2-4 hours for this after they told us it would only be a half hour.
When we received our RV, the spare tire cover was missing and they wanted us to pay for it if we wanted one because that wasn't part of the accessories (even though the exact same model of a different color had one). The trailer was also missing the door stop holder and had to have its tow wiring replaced because someone frayed the wires towing it around the lot. When it came time for our 1,000 dollar walk through, he was not able to answer any questions on the exact procedures of the appliances because they could be held liable if we were to use them incorrectly.
So we basically paid an extra 1,000 dollars to have someone "point" were the stove and refrigerator and A/C unit is located. The aggravation only got worse when we had to bring our trailer back for service. All of the spots where the customers are assigned to "drop off" the trailers were used up by their inventory leaving it impossible to drop off my RV without some stuntman maneuvering. This happened the next 2 times I had to bring my RV in for service also. The last time I brought my RV for service was the real kicker. I dropped it off in October with a list of 5 to 6 very small items that needed to be replaced. i.e. door-knobs, cabinet pulls, blind rods, etc.
They held onto my trailer for 3 months before the worked was finally completed. When I received a letter from them in December stating they would be closed for 3 weeks during the holidays and they would not be responsible for any batteries that were still hooked up and may freeze and explode. Since they were holding my RV "hostage" I asked if they could just unscrew the 2 wing-nuts and disconnect the battery for me so I wouldn't have to make a special trip. They service manage informed me that they would have to charge me 45 dollars (to unscrew two wing nuts!)
When I finally picked up my RV in January, I noticed that the curtain plastic turn rod was never fixed. When I inquired why, he stated that I neglected to give him the broken piece so that the warranty would cover the cost. Not only did this never get relayed to me ahead of time, but I just said forget it and bought the 45 cent piece from Home Depot! The final straw came when I repeatedly called and asked to speak to the center manager to discuss my problems.
All 3 times I called I was put on hold to never have anyone pick up the line, let alone the manager. I have never encountered such unprofessionalism in my life and never went to this extreme to try to relay this information with the hopes that it will help anyone else from making a grave mistake. Stay away from Walt-Michaels Rv center in Belleville Michigan at all costs!!!
BELLVILLE, MICHIGAN -- This summer (2006) we decided to take the family camping and the tent method would not work with small children, so we decided to rent a motorhome for a week of camping. Walt Michaels RV advertises to make it easy for "beginner" RV'ers with an instructional DVD and a walkthrough to show how to use the features, so we decided to rent from there. The Walt Michaels RV staff went through a checklist to explain how to use the different systems in the RV and note any damage.
On the checklist was the overhead antenna, difficult to see standing next to the motorhome it looked odd... the dome was lower on the backside and higher in the front but not knowing what it is supposed to look like thought nothing of it. So I drove off and for the first 30 miles I heard this clanking above the roof, so I checked the overhead vents and they were tightly closed (In the walk-through they emphasized closing the vents or it could be damaged by the wind resistance.)
The next week I returned the RV parked and walked in. There was a short round women bullishly telling staff members about a broken microwave antenna (I thought wow the rental staff nows appliances enough to diagnose the problems of a microwave.) Sure enough the top half of the antenna housing blew away and there was evidence of it being hit. I explained what happened but that did not matter because it was not on the paper work, so sure enough they charge me full retail price and a labor rate approaching aerospace levels of almost $100/hr. (I guess parts and service need to profit off rentals too.)
Then the short round woman approached me confrontational and asked "what did you put in the cargo area?" There was a huge gaping hole along the edge of the cargo hold, and I noticed that in the initial walkthrough and was noted... Walt Michaels RV need to be more rigorous in their pre-inspections. No staff members noted a huge hole in the RV until I returned it! There were numerous minor items that were broken but I did not dare tell them as first intended or my "repair" bill for things I did not break would be larger.... yeah I should charge them 1/2 hour labor time for the vent handle that I installed.

1. While we all enjoy the SB wins recently, we see the potential this team has being wasted.
2. Inconsistency. PERIOD! How do you shellack the Pack and lay down and die for the Skins?
3.Excuses. Nobody seems to say "hey, you know what? I have effed up...." It's always the same ho-hum attitude (except Rolle)
Bottom line. This team in the last 9 years or so under TC has ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS played down to the competition. If its against a hot team like the Saints in the dome, hell we may lose by 8 or 9 but we'll still put 35 on em. At least play hard every game. I would prefer if they scrapped and clawed and fought every single game then to just go through the motions out there and do this up and down garbage every frickin year. Is Fassell around? He'd be a good OC
lol Fassell..............now there's the answer. The line is short to sign him so we can have him cheap............like $50.
Thanks for the post Jim!!
No one remembers who came in second.

Pizza Dough
1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon honey
1 cup warm water, 105 to 115 degrees F
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus additional for brushing
In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey in 1/4 cup warm water.
In a food processor, combine the flour and the salt. Add one tablespoon of the oil, the yeast mixture, and the remaining 3/4 cup of water and process until the mixture forms a ball. (The pizza dough can also be made in a mixer fitted with a dough hook. Mix on low speed until the mixture comes cleanly away from the sides of the bowl.)
Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and knead by hand 2 or 3 minutes. The dough should be smooth and firm. Cover the dough with a clean, damp towel and let it rise in a cool spot for about 2 hours. (When ready, the dough will stretch slightly as it is pulled.)
Divide the dough into 4 balls, about 6 ounces each. Work each ball by pulling down the sides and tucking under the bottom of the ball. Repeat 4 or 5 times. Then on a smooth, unfloured surface, roll the ball under the palm of your hand until the top of the dough is smooth and firm, about 1 minute. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let rest 1 hour. At this point, the balls can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
When ready to use, roll out to about 1/4-inch thick. Then cover with your favorite toppings. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 25 minutes.
