I subscribed to the $19.95 plan in hopes of finding an old
friend. Upon paying the fee - I did a
search and received information that was basically useless. They gave me a jumbled list of former addresses
without dates for each location - so I had no idea what the current or latest
address was. The same is true regarding
the few phone numbers that was provided.
There was absolutely no info provided regarding marriages or divorces. I did a search on my own name and found that
the last address I was at for the past 4 years was not being shown in the
information they provided me. All my former phone numbers that were shown have been disconnected, and this information they provided me did not include my current cell phone number.
After sending them an email notifying them of my issues and
suggestions for improvement - I was simply given what appeared to be an
auto-reply email describing their disclaimer (conveniently tucked away in a
small 'Terms of Use' link at the bottom of the page), which states that they
cannot guarantee information being provided, which also states that there are
no refunds. They then had the nerve to
contact me on the phone trying to get me to go for something else, which I
responded that I was not interested in doing any other business with
peoplefinders.com or continuing the phone conversation unless they wanted to
address my complaint.

Q about 50mm/85mm on crop and FF bodies
I've been shooting with 7D and 50mm f1.4 for quite some time. I love this combo. It's basically a 80mm lens on a cropped sensor. Beautiful for portraits and closeups.
I'll probably switch to 5dmk2 in near future. So I thought about a good lens choice. Obviously, 85mm f1.8 comes to mind.
However, I don't know will I get the same "tightness" in closeup shots, because the closest focusing of 85mm is 0.8 metres, while 50mm is 0.45m.
Sometimes I really like to go closer and closer... many detail shots and baby portraits I do at approx. 0.5 - 0.6m from camera. Should I concerned on a FF with 85mm lens?

kitchen cabinets
A couple of years ago I purchased a 1950 home with the original kitchen cabinets. They were stained and varnished. I removed all pain, sanded and primed and used a latex paint..I was read that the kitchen cabinets are best painted with oil based paint. Now I need to know if you can put oil based paint over latex paint.
Anyone got tips for redoing old kitchen cabinets
I don't know what you were reading, but there are some awesome waterborne enamels out there.
Lets back up- First- you removed all pain? I've done that, but it was after painting.... ( lol I kill me!)
What exactly did you use for primer, and what exactly did you use for paint?

This is an episode in the Radio NI podcast series, which features regular interviews with contributors to New Internationalist's magazine and books. You can subscribe to this podcast for free in iTunes, or via the RSS feed, or by visiting the Radio NI blog to check for new interviews.
In the latest edition of the New Internationalist podcast, Tim Hunt, writer for Ethical Consumer magazine and co-author of a recent report on ethical banking, speaks to our Podcast Editor, Nyan Storey, about the Move Your Money campaign in the UK. The Move Your Money concept is simple. Banks such as the so-called "big five" – Lloyds, Barclays, Natwest, Santander and HSBC – are heavily investing in the arms trade, the tar sands industry, food speculation, and myriad other activities that cause suffering across the world. By moving our money from these banks into more ethical banks and building societies, such as Triodos and the Cooperative Bank, we can vote with our wallets, and be part of the movement that will finally make unethical banking practices unprofitable. In this podcast, Tim Hunt explains the how and why of moving your money.

Ska Blah Blah
Ska Blah Blah kicked off in Feb. of 2007 as nothing more than a place to host my first podcast series, Conversations on a Revivalist Movement. The podcast was born from the idea that there was a serious side to Ska that many music listeners weren't aware of. I wanted to smash the idea of Ska being a silly party genre, and to tell the stories of the musicians that were living in difficult circumstances- all in the name of furthering this music.
However, the blog bug bit hard, and the site quickly expanded it's scope to collect the best ska links on the web. Every day, I was discovering more and more people that felt the same way I did about Ska, and that a new, online wave was starting to mobilize. Artists with similar tastes from all over the world began contacting me. Soon, I had enough new music to launch an all-music series of podcasts, aptly titled, Cut the Chit Chat.
But I hadn't forgotten about the Blah Blah's in the title, and in April of 2008 I began releasing a new interview series, Small Talk. While the first series dealt with the musicians that carried the Ska torch through it's dark era of the early 2000′s, Small Talk featured artists that weren't exactly new to the game, but were doing something distinct and fresh with the sound.
I have every intention of doing another series, but for now, Ska Blah Blah will continue to offer up the best Ska-related links, videos, live performances, news and rumors. Please enjoy…
JJ Loy
I am the creator/host of Ska Blah Blah. After a somewhat disappointing attempt at producing short films, I went looking for projects that could fit into my day job schedule and required little to no collaboration. Having been a huge fan of Public Radio, especially This American Life and Fresh Air, I was attracted to the idea of learning some basic broadcasting techniques. This was 2005, and the world of radio seemed to be in decline. I knew that a career in radio was unlikely, but that maybe I could get some notice by making an audio documentary on spec. That is, until I first heard about podcasting. The idea of DIY broadcasting to a specific audience lit my brain on fire- and there was one subject I wanted to tackle: Ska. (I also wanted to take on comics and comedy, but Ska always comes first.)
I tried two attempts at podcasting, The Off-Centre Label and The Tradicle Time Capsule, before becoming discouraged and giving up. I wasn't enough of an expert on the matter to be taken seriously; I needed a voice of authority. This lead me to write Victor Rice (rumored to be the nicest guy in the scene), asking for an interview in the hopes that his insights would nudge me in the right direction. He accepted. By the time I was off the phone, I knew that an interview series was the perfect format to discuss some of the major issues in the Ska world. Soon I was doing interviews with Chris Murray, Joey Altruda, Dave Hillyard and Vic Ruggiero. All combined- my absolute favorite Ska musicians, in one podcast series.
Since then, I've become the host of Ska's The Limit on my local community radio station 88.1 KDHX in St. Louis. I'm only the latest host of a show that has been on the air for 18 years now- making Ska's The Limit the longest-running ska-themed radio show… ever. You can hear STL every week on-line via STLSka.org or KDHX.org
I've written articles for Make Magazine and Really Good Magazine as I'm still very interested in film, comics, technology, sci-fi and comedy- and my future projects just might reflect these persuits. But for now, I'm content to be a stubborn, snobby Ska DJ. Please enjoy…
