China's Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi strongly denounced the Bush meeting with exiled Tibetan leader, the Dalai Lama. He claimed the meeting will be a gross violation of the norms of international relations and could have "an extremely serious impact on relations." A White House spokesperson, Dana Perino rsponded: "We in no way want to stir the pot and make China feel that we are poking a stick in their eye. We understand the Chinese have strong feelings about this." Bush and Congress will award the Dalai Lama the Congressional Medal of Honor for his gallant fight for peace and the rights of Tibet. The Chinese government describes the Dalai Lama as a "separatist" because he wants an independent Tibet while China claims that area is part of the Chinese nation.
First, Turkey tells the American government which resolutions it can pass, and now China is telling our government who is allowed to visit the White House. I doubt very much if Turkey would allow America to determine what is said in their parliament anymore than China will allow the United States to decide who visits or does not visit government officials. China has relations with Iran despite the American government's hostility toward that nation. Would China accept an American demand to cease relations with Iran and not allow any Chinese official to visit that nation? Obviously, they would correctly reject such a demand as interference in the internal affairs of China.

Seems like the overall quality of themes being approved by TF recently has dropped way way down. While I am sure there have been some great themes mixed in, it just feels like I am seeing a lot more themes that lack originality and especially the "fit and finish" that I've come to expect from the perennial heavy weight authors out here.
So I guess my question is: Is this a summer thing? Has Envato relaxed on quality with the summer lows?
Just seems like every other theme I demo is full bugs, lazy css, and generic layouts that are most certainly "borrowed" from some of TF's top authors, who typically do some incredible things with WP.
I could be crazy, but I think it's worth discussing. I look forward to your thoughts.
P.S. If you disagree, please say it nicely. I am optimistic that we can transcend childish forum fighting.
Well, I wouldn't say that… I'm actually seeing a big difference with the themes being approved one or two years ago. There are, however, some exceptions that lack creativity, originality and all that stuff.. but TF has been seriously improved over the last years.
I don't have any personal experience with TF but I've been browsing it for some time now.
Sorry for the second post, I somehow pressed the "Post a Reply" button twice.
I do see some themes and just wonder how they got accepted when there are users on this forum getting feedback for their incredible looking themes.
Feel free to join one of the many discussions already open: http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/how-really-are-the-standards/68208

Best Of :: Food & Drink
If you're an epicure, you probably yen for that yuppie Cuban cuisine, maduro soufflés and the like. We hate that stuff. What we like is Black Beans. What we like is Felix Pereira, who arrived from the island in 1956 and has run restaurants virtually since the first day. What we like is lamb stew with savory raisins, succulent pork roast, and enormous, whole, fried snapper that comes with the head on. What we really like is the prices at this nondescript but scrupulously clean joint of 14 tables that opened the day after Christmas in 1993. At lunch, there's almost nothing that costs more than six dollars. Breakfast is similarly cheap. Two eggs, toast, and potatoes go for $1.55. Dinner's cheap too. Pereira, you see, followed the path of others in Broward County's community of exiles from el exilio. He and his wife, Herenia, spent almost three decades running a small restaurant in Miami, bought a bigger one in North Miami, then moved even further north to Hollywood "because Miami was getting really bad, and Hollywood is a nice, small town." This guy is dedicated. He raised his three kids in his restaurants and still works at Black Beans seven days a week from 8:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. He's 72 years old, so he needs a little more sleep than he used to -- and there's an air-conditioned room in the back. But he expects to be serving up moros, batidos, and tres leches for a very long time. So, hey, stop in, sip a cortadito, and tell him how you like real food cooked by a real macho!
For Indian food regulars who want to avoid those awkward moments of ordering beef curry from a Hindu waiter, the simple way is to go vegetarian. Bombay Cafe has powerfully tasty vegetarian dishes that'll make most carnivores forget about the lack of animal flesh. The chick peas in the chole-bhatura are cooked perfectly al dente in a potent tomato-based broth, and the plain uttapam combines the simplicity of a poster-sized rice pancake with aromatic lentil soup. Everything at this simple restaurant is made on-premises, even the yogurt, which flavors the sweet lassi so well, and the roti, an oven-roasted bread. Best of all, your vegetarian feast will set you back only about $5 -- not a bad price for a clear conscience.
Q: Ever watch reality-TV shows?
A: I watch absolutely no TV. I work every night.
Q: Never?
A: All right, Monday. My day off. On Monday, I have to watch Fear Factor because my 10-year-old daughter, Margeaux, insists on it. It's kind of fun to watch with her. She's always comparing herself to the girls on the show. She says, "I could do that."
Q: Are there parts of the show you don't like?
A: When they eat slugs and things like that. I'm not crazy about that.
Q: Is that the restaurateur talking?
A: Not really. That whole segment of the show -- I usually walk away from it. It'll definitely kill your appetite.
Q: How about your daughter?
A: She can stomach it a little better than I can.
Q: Is the show in any way real?
A: It's interesting to see what people will do for $50,000. Is that real? I don't know.
Q: Can you learn anything from Fear Factor?
A: Jeez, I don't think so. It's kind of like a strange sports game.
Q: What does your daughter get out of it?
A: Just the sensation of it, I think. She's very competitive, very athletic. A major soccer player and a junior lifeguard. I think the competition is what she enjoys, especially when the girls are competing against the guys. That's Margeaux.
If the name seems like a mouthful, well, the large servings of fresh fish and shellfish justify it. A retail seafood market on one side and an attractive, casual dining spot on the other, Waves isn't all foam and froth like some of its trendy contemporaries. Yet its preparations are still modern -- Asian shrimp-noodle soup, coconut shrimp, lump crab "fingers," shrimp scampi with roasted tomatoes. Feeling traditional? Waves also offers lobster dinners à la beach parties in Cape Cod, with a Maine steamed lobster, mussels, clams, ears of corn, and new red potatoes. Best of all, your belly may make you feel as if you won't be riding any waves too soon lest you get a cramp, and your wallet won't be much lighter -- Waves is as reasonably priced as it is filling.
It's no secret that Chinese takeout isn't always healthful. But there is hope. Wingloon's lengthy menu features all the traditional Chinese-American fare; sweet and sour chicken, moo goo gai pan, beef lo mein, among others. But this drive-through and takeout restaurant is looking out for today's health-conscious consumer. In addition to a vegetarian menu including broccoli and mushrooms with garlic sauce, and sautéed string beans, any of their chicken or beef dishes can be prepared with tofu, and they will omit salt, sugar, or cornstarch. You just have to ask.
Let's be honest. You're cheap, and you always will be. So you might as well put on the plaid pants and baby-blue blazer and go for the early-bird special at Spoto's. Between 5 and 6 p.m., the upscale raw bar in downtown West Palm Beach throws in a salad, dessert, and drink for the price of your entrée. That's a value of about $20, which, you might as well admit, is more than you spent on your mother's last birthday present. The deal includes a spicy tomato, mozzarella, and red onion salad with a well-aged vinaigrette. It's a good complement to the onion-crusted yellowtail snapper at $21.75. Or pair the house salad, with its wheat-beer vinaigrette, with the bouillabaisse, which includes a half-pound lobster, clams, mussels, and nearly still-swimming chunks of fish. Eat quick and you can be in bed by 8.

TD Bank Review: One of the Biggest Banks in the U.S. Provides Custom Banking Options
Headquartered in Portland, Maine and Cherry Hill, New Jersey, TD Bank is the 11th biggest bank in the United States. Whether you're opening your first bank account or applying for a home equity loan, this financial institution offers a wide range of financial products.
However, no two banks are alike and choosing the best bank for your money is never easy, requiring careful research. Do you want a unique banking experience? If so, discover the products and services offered by TD Bank, and decide whether this bank is right for you.
TD Bank Review
TD Bank delivers a multitude of financial products to meet the various demands of its clients. TD Bank account options include:
Checking Accounts
TD Bank offers six different types of checking accounts, including simple checking, student checking and premier checking. Monthly maintenance fees for checking accounts range from $5.99 to $25. The bank, however, waives the monthly fee if you maintain the minimum daily balance requirement. Student checking is always free. And if you're looking to earn interest on your checking account, this financial institution offers three options – TD 60 Plus, TD Premier and TD Relationship.
Savings Accounts
While some banks may feature one or two savings options, TD Bank offers seven different types of savings accounts to help reach your financial goals. You can start a nest egg with a simple savings account, or grow your money faster with a money market account.
Other options include the Holiday Saver and Club Saver, which are perfect if you need to save up for holidays or something special like a vacation. And if you're opening an account for a minor, the TD Young Saver is your best bet. You can also open a Health Savings Account to help pay for future medical expenses.
TD Bank CD Rates
Earn a higher rate of return on your savings with a certificate of deposit. TD Bank CD rates are competitive and range from 0.15% to 1.25% APY. Choose a CD term between 91 days and seven years. There are four options available to you, such as Basic CDs, No Catch CDs, Step Rate CDs and an IRA Add-Vantage CD. Get started with a low $250 deposit, plus there is the option to automatically renew your certificate of deposit at maturity.
Credit Cards
A TD Bank credit card features no annual fee and a minimum credit line of $500. Choose from multiple options, such as a rewards credit card and a cash back credit. These cards feature 0% interest on balance transfers for the first 18 months, as well as other Visa cardholder features (emergency card replacement, $0 liability on unauthorized purchases, auto rental collision damage waiver).
TD Bank Mortgage Rates
Whether you're purchasing, refinancing or applying for a home equity loan, TD Bank mortgage rates are competitive. Apply online and receive a same-day loan decision. Choose from different mortgage products, including a 30-year conventional mortgages or 15-year mortgages.
TD Bank Auto Loans
Getting an auto loan has never been easier. You can apply for a TD Bank auto loan in-person, online or over the phone. These loans feature a low, fixed rate, and in most cases, you don't need a down payment. Enjoy the convenience of paying your auto loan bill online.
Advantages and Disadvantages of TD Bank
One of the biggest advantages of TD Bank is its number of locations. With more than 1,300 locations, account holders typically have easy access to a bank branch or ATM. Additionally, TD Bank has up-to-date online and mobile banking features. Account holders can bank on-the-go and access their information from a computer or mobile device. They can pay their bills online, view account statements, schedule payments, transfer funds and receive real-time account information.
Another plus: TD Bank hours of operation. Most banks and credit unions are open between the hours of nine and five — TD Bank is different. This bank offers longer banking hours, and typically opens its doors at 8:30 a.m. The bank doesn't close until 8 p.m on Fridays and 3 p.m. on Saturdays. As an extra bonus, TD Bank is open on Sundays and Presidents Day.
With it's many banking options and unique services, TD Bank is a top pick. But currently, TD Bank branches are only located on the East Coast from Florida to Maine.
Should You Bank with TD Bank?
TD Bank strives to create the best experience for its customers. You'll discover a wide selection of products, competitive rates and innovative features. If you're looking for a bank with longer hours on the weekends, and one with locations in multiple states throughout the East Coast, consider opening an account with TD Bank.

Pubmaster, which is hoping to complete its purchase of Nomura's Inn Partnership pub chain in the next few days, is the latest company to join the search for executive talent. Chief executive John Sands is moving up to become executive chairman from the beginning of March.
In his new role, he will be scouting the country for further potential acquisitions, leaving a vacancy for someone to run the operations side of the company from Pubmaster's head office at Hartlepool in the North-East.
Pub groups Unique and Voyager, part of Guy Hands' Terra Firma Capital Partners outfit, have been trying without success to fill two top vacancies since October. Unique's chief executive, Giles Thorley, defected from the 3,260-strong chain to take on the challenge of floating rival Punch Pub Company on the stock market. Just a week later, it emerged that John Denning, chief executive of Voyager, had also quit.
Voyager is being run by Mike Kinski, formerly of Stagecoach. He was hired in July to oversee a review of the pub operations, but has been drafted in to fill Denning's shoes until a replacement is found.
All this is proving to be a bonanza for headhunter Whitehead Mann. Not only has it been given the task of filling Thorley and Denning's shoes, it has also been hired by pubs and brewing group Wolverhampton & Dudley to find a finance director.
The previous incumbent, Jim Taylor, lasted only six weeks before quitting abruptly three months ago. Paul Inglett, director of planning, was made acting finance director to fill the gap, but the company is still looking for a full-time replacement.
And recruitment consultants are rumoured to be working on finding a successor to Scottish & Newcastle executive chairman Brian Stewart, though the company has poured cold water on the suggestion.
Nigel Popham, leisure analyst at stockbroker Teather & Greenwood, said: 'There is a dearth of natural talent in the pub industry. Now that bigger companies such as Allied Domecq, Whitbread and Bass have got out, there are fewer potential leaders coming in at the bottom and being trained up. There are also too few leading lights at the top.
'It shows how much the pub sector has diminished in the stock market. Working for private companies such as Pubmaster or Nomura is probably not so appealing compared with working for a blue-chip company.'
However, James Hyde, director at Whitehead Mann, said that the sector was still in favour with the ambitious. 'It will always attract driven people who rise to a challenge,' he said.

There were several jokes mentioned about throwing back to the boss (this comment WAS from the boss) everyone was tickled to receive this gift. The best part of it was the wirting on the rock....No mention of any negatives things about it! Was a great choice. thanks!

This was bigger than expected, and just as pictured! I'm using it to encourage positive attitudes in our team. The person who gets the rock for doing something well and/or helping someone out, must then pass it along to another person for another good deed within three days. So far, it seems to be encouraging focus on positive instead of negative. I would definitely buy this again!

My apologies for not posting sooner...I was out of town for Father's Day.
A couple of things.
1. You
need to spend $1000 for ahelmet. As the article indicates, decide what kind of activity you intend to pursue and go from there. For AX an "M" Certified helmet is more than sufficient. There are also manufacturers like HJC that offer reasonable helmets for less than $200.
2. Buying online. This is a bit of a concern because you will not know how the helmet fits until you try it on. Each manufacturer sizes differently. So, your best bet is to try on a helmet and go from there. If you can accurately size your helmet in person, then buying online is less of a concern.
A quick story. A good friend of mine who had a marginal interest in motorsports wnt to WAL-MART and purchased a no-name $78 dollar helmet for use on track and in AX. He failed tech inspection because the helmet was not up to certification standard because it could not be proven.
He returned the helmet and bought an HJC. For $40 more he was able to purchase a certified helmet at a reasonable cost. Since he is only marginally intereste, his needs for AX were met and coud also participate in track events.
$140 was all his budget will allow for at this time. So, take that into consideration as well.
However, heed the advice of the article in going too far on the cheap...

Category: baby name Barnaby
This week, for her Nameberry 9, Appellation Mountain's Abby Sandel picks the newsiest names on the boys' side of the gender divide.
Midway through compiling this week's list, I realized just how many great boys' names are out there.
This is a subject of some debate. Creativity in naming a son was long frowned on, and parents tended to fall back on the most familiar choices. In 1900, more than 6% of all newborns were named John, while just 5.25% answered to Mary. #2 name, William, was given to almost 5.3% of boys, but the #2 girl name, Helen, represented just under 2% of new births. The names change, but the pattern holds. In 1965, 4.3% of boys were Michael, and 3.3% of girls answered to Lisa. Generally speaking, more boys receive the most popular names.
Reasons are plentiful, and even the most daring namer of daughters may very well veer towards the classics for a son, leading to sibsets like James, Henry, and Persephone. But could this be the generation to challenge that pattern?
There are some names that, even now, after writing so much about the subject, I hear and think, "Wow, that's a great name. I wonder why people don't use that one more often?"
Sometimes, the answer is that a name was just too popular too recently for parents to appreciate its intrinsic wonderfulness: the lush Biblical Deborah is one that might fit in this category, though I didn't include it in my ten examples.
Other times, a name carries an unappealing association for enough people to keep it from becoming popular. And there are a dozen other reasons why a perfectly wonderful name just might not make it big – which can be good news for the parent in search of a name that's both topnotch and undiscovered.
Here, ten names we think are underrated right now:

Escape The Fate stream album
Album of the year, 10/10, A++
i'll pass
Digging: Shinedown - delete this
how about no.
Can't be worse than the piece of shit they released last time.
Minus tracks 3, 5, and 9, I enjoyed this.
Well, can't be worse than that new Falling In Reverse single.
Hint: Ronnie raps!
holy shit falling in reverses new songs sound... uhhh... idk. bad?
Probably sucks a lot of dick.
Not as bad as I expected. More 'core than before.
I take it back. It got a lot worse as it went on.
^ Hahaha
and there's dubstep
Digging: Nickelus F and Shawn Kemp - Trick Dice
Listened to it and there's absolutely no dubstep
Ronnie's rapping is hilarious though
dude there's no such thing as a dubstep breakdown
Digging: Captain, We're Sinking - The King of No Man
this is dubstep but those ambient sections in the new BMTH weren't?
Truly awful, but I thought we'd all reached the point where we stopped calling that dubstep
it's shitty american electro
clear bro/no step unless you count those hi hats leading up to it but that sounded like some awful trap rap more than anything else
That new Falling in Reverse song makes me appreciate ETF a little more.
^^^ Sure You've explained it before bruv but what's with the username..???
I thought it had a nice ring to it back in the day so I used it as my Metal Gear Online tag. When I joined here I kinda wanted to use a name other than what I usually use online so for some reason I chose that.
You seem to pop up in all things ETF/Metalcore so I presumed it was more of a Craig Mabbitt Fan Girl Thing..
Ronnie needs to stop rapping, really badly. That new single made me sick.
Love how he calls I See Stars "Auto Tune Techno Faggots". Basically what he is now...
Why doesn't Andcas just... find something better to do with his time?
Yeah. Most the ones I made were over the summer when the only things I had to do were jerk off and go
on my computer, but I don't use them anymore. But seriously dude, every news thing I go on is nothing
but Andcas comments. Save some room for people with better names.
I'm a user on Sputnikmusic.com... would you like me to be more specific?
You seem to pop up in all things ETF/Metalcore so I presumed it was more of a Craig Mabbitt Fan Girl Thing..
This is generic and dull as fuck. Sadly, this shit is not the worst thing that I've heard this year. The new material of willIam and falling in reverse made me vomit
Yeah, the only difference between you and me is that you're in every single fucking thread I read.
"Yeah, the only difference between you and me is that you're in every single fucking thread I read."
Is that an insult? Because, if you didn't already know, YOU are in every single fucking thread you read.
How ya feelin', son?
I feel like you're defending probably one the most annoying ass people on Sputnik by commenting back with a smartass answer.
Well seeing as how most people on this site want you to run your self into a knife, I can't help but think the clown here is probably you.
Sure, you can comment where you want, but most of the shit you say is just stupid. As for the chambered99 thing, I'm not even going to bother with that, I'll just let you wonder about that one.
Well, okay, if you say so. I'll leave you be now. Continue with your daily routine of going through every news article and posting shit that doesn't matter to anyone (it just annoys the shit out of them) and try to find some purpose in life besides being on Sptunik 24/7.
He can't be chambered or malleus or alach even.
They all have better taste in music, and have much better comebacks. This guy is such a bore.
Dude, you do realize I was fucking with you the entire time, right? I read that comment by chambered99 and thought, "I'll fuck with this guy and piss him off." So, I guess I succeeded in at least making my self laugh. Anyway, have a nice day.
Here's an apology video just for you andcas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wA8z94MXo9M
Well, I guess if I made myself look like a huge douchebag it's all worth it at the end of the day if I'm happy. I hope you enjoyed that video, I think nuclear weapons are pretty interesting, not that you would care or anything.
Why? I love this site, it's just that you were an easy person to fuck with.
Better than Falling in Reverse at least
No, Andcas, I won't. Ask me nicely first.
Well shit, this is the first decent album they've put out post-Ronnie. Solidly average, and nothing more. Also, Falling In Reverse's new single... Ronnie's just completely lost it.
Wow you two. You've managed to take an article about Escape the Fate and make it worse. Congrats.
I was wondering how this got another 30 comments since the last time I checked it. Now it makes sense

Monitoring Coral Reef Health in Indonesia
Off the tip of the Bird's Head Peninsula of West Papua, Indonesia lie the islands of Raja Ampat, a marine oasis within the Coral Triangle. WWF Marine Conservation Biologist Helen Fox is part of a project to monitor coral reef health in Raja Ampat, in collaboration with Conservation International (CI) and The Nature Conservancy (TNC).
Managing Marine Resources in the South Pacific
The marine resources of the South Pacific region are threatened by major challenges. WWF believes that sustainable livelihood, development and conservation efforts are most successful when community groups adopt conservation initiatives and make their own management choices.
Promoting Sustainable Livelihoods in Kyrgyzstan
In order to diversify the incomes of poor herders and encourage their participation in snow leopard conservation efforts, the WWF Asia High Mountains Project is working with women from three project communities in the buffer zone of the remote Sarychat Ertash State Reserve in eastern Kyrgyzstan.
Securing a Future for Forests and Communities in Bolivia
Indigenous communities control 30 percent of forested land in the Bolivian lowlands. The sustainable management of this land is essential to ensuring a prosperous future for Bolivia, its indigenous people and the environment. In this country and elsewhere, WWF plays a key role in helping community organizations strengthen their ability to promote sustainable forestry.
Fighting Back Against the Floods
Climate change is causing many Eastern Himalayan glaciers to melt faster than ever observed and in the process they leave behind pools of water that form glacial lakes. Weak walls of earth and rock contain the water but can burst suddenly, resulting in massive flooding downstream that is catastrophic for local communities.

Updated CCV Dip stick tube - not work with old dipstick
Ok, did my whole CCV job this morning. Did the whole job in about 2hrs flat. Which amazed me. From what I read on here I was expecting a 6-8hr job. It went awsome. The hardest part was connecting the top side tube to the CCV that has the twist lock but I figured it out in about 15 minutes. For those that don't remember, I got the udpated cold weather CCV kit, even though I live in FL yes and updated oil dip stick tube. However..... I tried the oil dip stick in the new tube before I put it in the car, good thing, and it got stuck at the bottom! Got it out and figure the old dip stick does not work with the new tube? :dunno: Figured one of you fellers on here would of posted this.
EDIT: I've been searching on the net. Can't really find an answer to this. The only thing I found is I'm not alone. It happens to a lot of people. The only thing I found that may be a fix or help is on the E46 forum they showed pics of two dip stick bases/tips. one was like mine, had the 4 fins up top. The other had that and a 4 fin bulb at the tip/base also. That would fix this issue. I emailed the bmw part store, Adam. To check on a updated part # b/c Real OEM is just listing the # that the car originally had... heck they're still listing the old tube. I'll keep ya'll posted.
I have not ever heard of this happening before. I reused my old dipstick tube the last time but plan on getting the new dipstick tube when I replace the CCV this spring.
2 hrs! I am impressed! You must have small hands! Did you remove anything else to improve access?
Left the DISA valve or whatever you call it the flapper in place. Removed the driver side cabin air filter box, throttle body, air box, and the intake manifold cover. that's it. Was actually pretty easy job. F'n dipstick snags on the new tube. Like I said, if I had installed the tube, then put the dipstick in, I would of had to remove the tube to free the dipstick. Only snafu on this job. I have pretty decent size hands. Large gloves.
Did some searching because I am about to replace CCV and dipstick tube on my 2003 530i 5 spd and do not want to run into this problem. Question came up on Bimmerforums and some familiar folks replied. Here is best post:
Sounds and looks like twisting the dipstick while pulling up on it will work. There is no new dipstick design. Other possible fix is to use a Dremel tool to grind down the plastic tip where it is snagging on the tube.
So cutting my dipstick was not a smart thing. F'k.
Well if there is not a updated part # I'll buy a new dip stick b/c my idiot self just cut the old one for temp use. I was scared of it getting caught never coming back out and having to remove the tube. So buy a new dipstick and then I'll dremel all the tops of the notices to aid in removal. that's the issue right there.... You have a bunch of gradiation or notches that are 90* angles. Of course when you pull up they get caught. 45'n them will help them slip by the inside edges. F'n Aholes. They should of come up with a new dipstick. Preferably made of cable, and a well thought out tip. but no. for $135 you get a tube that doesn't work with the old stick. genius. Yu wonder why these people lost the war. They need to hire some more mediocore engineers to catch these mondane items.
i have just done my ccv on my 2000 328i my only concern was the hose that runs thru the manifold although i could not twist to lock in place it is fully on very tightly probably why i couldn"t twist it,my question is is it likely any pressure will start to push it off,as i am happy to redo as it only took me 4hours,thanks
^ I made sure my new one was twist locked. That was the hardest part. But I got it. I didn't want it coming off. I noticed some just dremeled it or whatever but I massaged it on, fully locked. Will yours blow apart? Doubt it. it's a vacuum system. could it vibrate lose or have some vacuum leak, yes.
DING!!! We have a winner. Come on down Johny!!!! ^^^^^^ I love the german cars. the driving experieince, the safety, the RWD... just love it. But they can give you headaches to the point where you just say F'k it I give up. Tired of bleeding money for these cars. Buying a Fusion/Camry/Accord/Altima or getting a bumped up Fusion MKZ like I had for 13 months. My MKZ was like maintaining a lawnmower. I got the Motorcraft Syn Blend oil @ walmart for like $13/5qtys. Motorcraft filter for like $3.50. Changed it every 7,500-10,000. Air filters were $8. Drove it to 80,000 miles and only did oil changes and tire rotations and 1 set of spark plugs @ 60k. I didn't spend jack on that car. And it was nicer than average camry. 45k miles in 13 months for work... yes I drive. Loved the Lincoln MKZ. If I had the 2009+ I probably would of kept it and sold the 335i. Not to mention my lincoln had Bluetooth, sat radio, memory seats, garage door opener...everythign. and.... TWO F'N CUP HOLDERS!!!! and a 6spd Auto that was built in Japan and rocked. And 263HP. And burned 87 gas. Sometimes you just have to vent and give cred where it's due. I don't know why I keep abusing myself with the BMW's... Lincoln or Lexus is the way to go unless you like to turn wrenches on Sat morning instead of sleeping in or golfing.
In all seriousness, a Lexus GS is RWD, silky smooth and prices comparable to the 5 series and has much lower maintenance and lower 5yr ownership cost. I love the GS exterior, but the inside just screams old rich lady from Sarasota FL. But for most, it's a better option $$. I think the Lincoln MKZ's (2009+) have a better interior. I had a 2008 Blk on Blk Mobster looking one, belive it was the last year of that generation. The one after mine had thicker glass, quieter interior, complete re-design which I really like. Just stinks it's FWD. But they do full suspension kits being it's a Fusion cousin. So you could put new lower springs, sway bars, exhaust, SCT Tuner flash Etc on it... or even a super charger. Pretty sick cars IMO. And they're good size. Big, but not boats. If I commit BMW suicide I'm buying a newer MKZ. Then I'll have to find something else to do on my evenings and weekends other than cruise forums and work in the garage. FYI, I never even found a MKZ forum... :) I would so take a 2009+ Silver/Blk MKZ, full suspension drop, super charger and ehxuast. That would be one sick car. What sux is the new 2013's only have a 4cyl Turbo 240HP with D.I. Boooo... Throw the 3.7 V6 fro the MKX into it.
exactly. nickel and dime fest. But I calmed down..... Like my E39 and the new '11+ 5'er. Not really feeling the E60. I guess the bottom line is I like the 5 series, just maybe should trade both BMW's I own for 1 newer 5. OH well I'm on the what I think is last lap or near last lap on getting my 530i fixed up so I'll drive it for as long as possible, 2-3yrs hopefully and try to sell my 335i now being I never drive it. I work long weeks then I'm working on my E39 and spending family time. no time for my dream E90 and keeping th E90 is not a good deal b/c I use my car for a lot of business driving. the E90 is just over the top. I'll probably just get on a 2-3yr CPO 5'er, Auto, under 40k miles in white or silver every 5yrs plan when I get out of my E39 DD & E90 Dream I can't drive. 2 BMWs is too much to keep up with.

|1,600 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
This is the Best Rental on the River! This home has a private sandy beach and 27ft wide boat launch. This is a 1600 square foot, three bedroom, two bath home, located 100 feet from the Colorado River. No smoking allowed. Inquire about pets.
The home is located 23 miles from Bullhead City and 25 miles from Lake Havasu City, Az. Across from Needles Marina. 10 minutes by boat Pirates Cove.
The house is completely furnished and newly remodeled. The kitchen has granite, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and fully equipped with all cooking and eating essentials. The house has a central air-conditioner and heating unit.
All bedrooms are completely furnished with beds, dressers and ceiling fans. This is a wonderful home with lots of windows and ceramic tile.
There is plenty of parking for boats and RV's. There is a 18 hole golf course within one mile. The house is 18 miles from the Bullhead/Laughlin Casinos.
Also see our other home on this property vrbo listing #83610
Keywords: Colorado River House
We stayed at the front home, it was very comfortable and well maintained. There was plenty of room for our vehicles and boats! The available ramp was great as we were able to launch our boats without having to go to a marina as well as the small beach which the kids enjoyed. Charlotte was always available and responsive. We would recommend this home to anyone who loves the river and has a boat! Would definitely stay again!
We rented both properties for 4 nights and had a great time. Both houses have all the amenities one needs . The beds as other guests have commented are extremely comfortable. The beach was great to hang out and get off boat for awhile. Even met some very nice neighbors . Enjoyed chatting with Jack and his wife and of course playing with their dog Josie on the beach. Will definitely stay here again !
We stayed 8 nights and 7 days. The daily rate was within expectations for a home this nice on the river. The rate for a cabin at pirates cove is comparable if not more, but this place had way more space and amenities and was private. I felt we had the experience we paid for and more. The home itself is more than capable of entertaining a large family. Very clean. Pet friendly was a plus since we had our dog. Absolutely no signs of pet use here. Master bedroom was very spacious and the other rooms were comfortable as well. The living room was huge and the kitchen very nice. The kitchen contained all the amenities of home. Our family: 4 adults and 3 kids fit very comfortably here. We have stayed at homes at the river before and this was by far the favorite of all of us. The patio was nice with very comfortable padded chairs. The entry onto the property leading to the launch ramp and water front was easily maneuverable even with a 25' boat. Very good parking on the property as well. Having a private beach was a bonus and hanging out under the palapa and our canopy was relaxing. Things to be careful for: water levels fluctuate here (you know this if you are an experienced river rat) so anchor your boat out quite a ways. Improvements: larger BBQ, maybe some more towels on hand......other than that this was a memorable vacation and definitely will return.
We had a wonderful time with our kids and grandson. The property was very clean and very spacious. The pictures do not do this property justice. It was much nicer in person. I would definitely rent this house again and recommend it to anyone looking for a clean spacious rental.
We rented the back house and we're pleased at the spaciousness and comfort. 4 adults, two children and two large dogs never once felt cramped. The convenience of staying in a home in the water really made for a great trip. The boat, car and trailer were always right there and launching on our own ramp made it pleasant to do so.
Great place its a lot better than the pictures show we rented both houses and had a wonderful time. Got my deposit back quickly. The houses were perfect my only suggestion is that the house could use a new BBQ the one there is old and on it way out. I will definitely rent again and again we loved it.

The wizards of Wall Street have cooked up a new structured-finance product that could start showing up in money-market fund portfolios.
Vincent Ryan, CFO.com | US
May 6, 2011
Wall Street has hundreds of billions in garbage to repackage into profitable assets. I don't begrudge them for trying another take on these structured products thru the collateralized commercial paper offerings. I do blame the rating agencies for willfully turning a blind eye to them by intentionally not evaluating the core risks. As the story says, "In rating Barclays's offering last November, though, Moody's said it did not 'undertake any assessment of the quality or liquidity of the collateral, nor . . . examine the strength of the repo arrangements or any potential mismatch in terms or rates between the CP issuance and the repo agreements.'" Aren't the quality and liquidity of the collateral sort of important to commercial paper assets? Wouldn't we really care about the strength of the repo arrangements and the terms/rates mismatch? Shame on Moody's for taking fees on this one. And for investors, it's the same game as well: a few more bps and a lot more risk - as long as the world works, the results are good and the bonuses flow. But, if there's trouble in the underlying securities...

Somaya Reece Is Dating A Drug Dealer?
Somaya Reece stepped away from reality TV but she's still very open with her day to day activities online. Whether it's Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or her personal website, MissReece.com; Somaya's happy to update her followers with details of her life.
Somaya didn't have too much of a happy and committed relationship on Love & Hip Hop but all of that has changed now. She's posted countless pictures with her boyfriend by the name of Frank Kush. Sources say that Somaya's deeply in love with Kush because of the expensive lifestyle that he provides her from that "kush."
Frank Kush wants to get a "big break" in the recording industry as well and constantly promotes new music and freestyle onto his Soundcloud page. It's rumored that it's all a cover up for his "kush-pushing" lifestyle a major "middle man" in the business.
He's usually promoting the hashtag, "Sophisticated Smoke" and "Kush Club" and he often rocks clothing with both "slogans" as well.
At any rate, it's good that Somaya found her a man to hold her down.

I finished up weathering on my CA boots (thanks to Spideyfett for the heads up on the sale and his weathering tutorial!)
First, I got the shoes good and damp. Not sopping wet, but emough so that the fabric was holding a good amount of water. Then I used a spray bottle filled with a mixture of liquid fabric dye and water. I used 3 colors (black, light tan, and dark brown). I used varying amounts of water with each of the dyes, as well as varying the spray patterns. I let them dry for about 2 hours, and then added the spikes (here's a plug for RussRep, he made em). While the shoes were still damp, I put them on and starting kicking my way through different dirt piles on my property. (I got lucky I guess, we have 3 different kinds of dirt piles). I took the shoes, and rubbed the dirt into them. I let them fully dry for 24 hours. A lot of the loose dirt came off, but enough worked into the cracks to give the shoes that "worn" look. Here's the end result. Comments?

Thank you all so much for the feedback! I really appreciate it, and it helps to know I am not the only one with these hair issues!
I discovered today that the sulfate shampoo I used for my initial cleanse when I started CG has a hidden silicone, so I think I may need to start over with a sulfate wash! Grrr - tricky little cones. I wonder if that has contributed to my problems.
I have read some of the forums about protein, but wasn't sure how to determine if this was me. I guess I just need to get some protein-free cowash and see if that helps. Luckily with the Suave I am only out $1 if it doesn't work
@Curly Nikki - I feel your pain! I actually was having good results for a long time with silicones and shampoo, and my hair didn't seem unhealthy or anything. But then I was starting to get product build-up and wanted something that would be more natural/healthy for the long term. But right now, my silicones and shampoos are looking really good!
I'm going to start over with a sulfate wash tomorrow to see if that pesky silicone was causing the trouble, and then start experimenting with proteins. I'll let you all know how it goes!

Such a common problem: site had an emergency crash, and needed to restore from backup.
• They discovered the last six months of backups had been sent to a 100% full filesystem – none of the backups were restorable.
• It's hard for a business to recover from this kind of mistake – you may be turning off the lights
Once your database less than few GiB mysqldump fits well, so let's do it through crontab.
To prevent any unexpected issues we do set -e (bash -e) that causes the shell to exit if any subcommand or pipeline returns a non-zero status. Let's assume we use s3cmd CLI to upload file onto AWS S3, you can easily replace it with rsync or something else.
mkdir -p /mnt/backup
echo '#!/bin/bash -e
current_date=`date +%Y-%m-%d-%H:%M`
mysqldump --innodb-optimize-keys --single-transaction -u user db | gzip -c > $dbfile_full
log=$(s3cmd put -sv s3_bucket:mysql/$dbfile_name $dbfile_name 2>&1)
echo $log | mail -s "[backup] DB#0" email@example.com
/bin/sync; echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches;
' > /mnt/backup.sh
echo "0 */24 * * * /mnt/backup.sh" | crontab -
What does exactly this simple script do:
• makes sure that script stop immediately if something goes wrong (-e option)
• once you receive an email the dump files uploaded successfully
• you can track the dump file size and see if db slave still alive
• all emails will be organised in thread by title to easy tracking
• prevents swap by cleaning the file cache straight after dump file is uploaded
• once you stopped from receving emails you know that filesystem is 100% full in most cases

Wedding belles
August 31st, 20110
When choosing a wedding dress style, the same rules apply as you would adopt when choosing your normal everyday outfits. Sweetheart, deep-Vs and scoop necklines are best, full-skirted dresses or fluted bottoms are great to balance out the figure of a curvy girl. If you are a curvy bride approaching your wedding day or you are close to the curvy bride, you are also going to need advice on underwear. The right lingerie can make a big difference to your day, it is important for the look of the dress, that you have the right bra too. You will need to be comfortable all day long, and it is a very long day indeed. Our advice would be to come into one of our Bravissimo stores and ask for some free fitting advice, nothing can compare to one to one advice with our trained experts. Meanwhile, why not browse some of our elegant bridal styles below.
The Tiffany Basque by Masquerade, is a stunning basque, it is really silky to touch, it has lightly padded cups and a boned bodice, offering great structure, fit and shape. It can be worn with or without straps and is available in ivory, for under your wedding dress, but also black, which you could take on your honeymoon.
The Evie Bridal Basque by Panache, is so pretty and sophisticated, it comes in ivory with delicate lace detailing. It is structured and creates the perfect, flattering silhouette and will enhance any wedding dress you happen to choose. It has multi-way straps for a low backed dress and can be worn strapless. It also has matching suspenders to add that extra special something.
Remember, your wedding day is the biggest day in your life – but you have to prepare and plan to ensure it is also the best!

So when you go on your next shopping trip, make a visit to Bravissimo a top priority, it will cut out a lot of unnecessary leg work. For those of you that don't know, Pepperberry is a range of clothes designed especially for us, taking into consideration all of the common problems that us ladies encounter when buying clothes. You will be able to say goodbye to stretched fabric, buttons straining and gaping, tops riding up and ending up too short in the body. Our clothes are designed in standard sizes, but the clever bit is, you can buy them in Curvy, Really Curvy and Super Curvy, so there is a size to fit everyone. As we know all too well, that even if you have the same bra size as your best friend, your boobs are different shapes, so a Really Curvy may fit you and your friend may be a Super Curvy.
For a preview of what we have to offer in our autumn range from Pepperberry, have a look at some gorgeous new tops we have selected for you.
The Floral Twist Front Blouse is a pretty, casual top, it has a deep V neckline that will divide your boobs beautifully, and a V- neck will also give the impression of lengthening your torso. This top has a twisted detail at the front, which is very flattering and the print is a cute ditsy floral.
The Jersey Chiffon Trim Top, is not too low-cut but still incredibly sexy, (think less is more with this top) It has a slight sheen which makes it a perfect going out top, it is made of jersey and has a gorgeous ruching detail and chiffon trim around the neckline, and it is available in black.
The Ruched Jersey Top is pretty similar to the top above, but a more daywear option, it is available in grey marl, which is great for this autumn/winter, it is perfect for you sporty girls, but is still on trend. It has long sleeves and a panel of ruching at the front and is very roomy and super comfortable for your boobs.
Check out all of Pepperberry's autumn range on the website…
Blue Monday
August 1st, 20110
Blue has been one of the colours that featured heavily in the spring/summer collections this year and will continue to be one of the trends forecasted for autumn/winter. Going into winter you will see lots of intense blues and some vibrant turquoises.
To make a start in introducing some gorgeous blues to your lingerie drawer and to make sure your Mondays are always blue from now on, read on…
The Melody Balconette Bra by Panache in electric blue has received rave reviews, it comes in an absolutely gorgeous shade of blue, it is very soft and comfortable and we've been told it gives fantastic shape, whilst still being super supportive.
We are still loving the Thrill Me Bra by Curvy Kate, here at the Bravissimo office, it has that sexy burlesque feel, it is lightly padded and creates fantastic cleavage and shape and it fits like a dream. It is available in a lovely silky fabric, in azure and plum.
The Verity Bra by Pureda in cobalt is a really sophisticated and sexy bra. It is an underwired balconette bra and is a contrast of sheer fabric and pretty embroidery, but is still incredibly supportive and very flattering, again this bra has got lots of major fans.
Check out more of our gorgeous blue hues in our lingerie collection at Bravissimo.com or pop into one of our stores and ask the sales advisor to point you in the right direction.

There are many great towns and cities in Britain (outside London) that are perfect for a day's shopping; Leeds, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Manchester, Cambridge and Brighton to name but a few. So why not indulge yourself and round up a couple of girlfriends and plan a day away? If you have children you could leave them with your partner (get him involved!). Sometimes school holidays can be more stressful and exhausting, so a break and a change of scenery to recharge your batteries will make you feel re-energized as you tackle the rest of the holidays. If you are single, just pick up the phone, your friends will be glad that someone has taken the initiave to organize something.
As its summer, let's take a closer look at the city of Brighton and Hove on the south coast. Prince Regent made the area fashionable after his first visit in 1783; he fell in love with Brighton and went on to commission the building of The Royal Pavilion. In 1841 with the arrival of the railway, Brighton was more accessible to Londoners, it attracted many day trippers, the town was also known as a health resort, as the seawater was thought to bring many health benefits. Brighton is often known as 'London by the Sea', as it is just 50 minutes train journey from Victoria. Its population is made up of students from all over the world, young families and famously has a vibrant gay scene.
You will not get bored in Brighton, there is plenty to do. If you are there early enough you could have a delicious breakfast at Bill's Produce Store (The Depot, 100 North Road), or for a traditional 'greasy spoon' you could go to Cafe Motu (6 Trafalgar Street), a no frills café that serves a fantastic English breakfast.
Then you could take a slow amble through the North Laines, and look at all the amazing independent shops selling vintage clothes, baby clothes, lovely homewear and beautiful jewellery. You could then book yourself in at The Treatment Rooms (New Road), a beauty salon and day spa. They offer all sorts of lovely treatments like a Swedish massage or an aromatherapy facial. You could then have a spot of lunch at Dermot O'Leary's Fishy Fishy Seafood Brasserie (East Street).
After lunch you could pop into our Bravissimo store (North Street) and have a bra fitting from one of our experienced fitting consultants. If the sun is shining, and it usually is, there's no better place to be. Give it a go this summer – and do pop in to our store to say hello!

Iowa officials say a state website that people can use to apply for health insurance is working again.
The state Department of Human Services says a website for Medicaid eligibility became available again Saturday night. The agency said the website was down earlier because it was undergoing scheduled maintenance.
The issue affects Iowans who tried to apply for insurance through the federal hub and were told they might qualify for Medicaid. DHS sent emails and letters to nearly 16,000 Iowans to tell them a delay in paperwork on the federal level meant they should use the state website, and there was no guarantee of coverage on January 1st.
DHS spokeswoman Amy Lorentzen McCoy says an alternative call center number will be available during the week.

1975 Ford F-250 Crew Cab Shortbed 71,000 original miles - Super Clean - Sell or trade
I brought this 75 Ford F-250 Crew up from New Mexico a few months ago with plans to do a Cummins conversion. Quite honestly it was a bit of an impulse buy, since I'd been looking for a clean crew body for a long time.
It has 71,000 original miles, and is 100 percent stock. It is 2wd, although 4x4 conversions are easy on these trucks. The truck is 99 percent rust free, with the only rust being small areas in the cab corners and a hole in the passenger fender and core support where it appears it had a leaky battery in the past. The bed, roof, and doors are rust free, which is near impossible to find on these trucks. It is so clean underneath you can still see where Ford of Canada cut the back of the single cab to weld on the rest. For those of you that don't know, Ford did not build a true factory crew until 1980. From 1957-1979 Ford of Canada converted single cab trucks into crew cab trucks. Exact production numbers are impossible to find, however most Ford Truck resources believe there were only somewhere between 2,500-4,500 of these built between 1973-79. I have personally owned four of them, and have looked at dozens more. This is by far the cleanest original survivor I've ever found!
Truck needs weatherstrip and a dash pad. Rear tires are pretty worn too. Seats are very nice. Rear door panels have some cracks but look OK. The fuel tank switch does not work, so it only pulls fuel from the cab tank. Paint is fading, never seen salt!
Powered by the original 390 big block and four speed. Supposedly the motor has been recently rebuilt. It looks like it, as it has been freshly painted and you can see new gaskets. It does not leak a drop of oil and sounds great. Has an Edelbrock aluminum intake. I would not be afraid to get in and drive this thing across the country.
Only reason I'm selling is because I was in need of a vehicle with more seating. I don't need to sell. I might consider trades of equal value. No newer cars, antique/collector maybe.
Asking $5,800 located in Marine City

Legal Professional: Build Your Business
My sister's exhusband is 5000 dollars behind in child support and only has to pay 160.00 a month in child support. They both live in state of Ohio. My sister and her child live with me (her brother) as she is working full time and going to school, I cover my nieces needs financially, as let's face it 160 a month does not cover the expenses for a child. My sister's ex drives a new BMW, a Denali, a Hummer, and a Jeep Wrangler. He also has a speed boat. He has a gorgeous thee bedroom home and his belongings are owned by a business, which has been set up in his Grandmother's name. Moreover, he has not filed personal taxes in several years. What gives and how can I advise my sister how to fix this situation? It is truly rediculous and I do not understand how he gets away with it. I know she cannot be the only person going thru this. Please help!
It is possible to structure your life so as to have very modest income --its not that easy to structure it at that level so that no return is required. IRS is less than amused at folks who fail to file reurns --but it can be done--and forgivness sought later.
1. The IRS has a reward program for people who turn in tax cheats--and apparently the reward is factored on how good the information is --in short the IRS values good solid input!
1.1 Keep in mind that if he stopped working and is living off grandmothers "gifts" or a trust fund --while distasteful, it may be legal.
2. If the EX's apparent life style income would warrant a major change in his CS based on the state formula then it may be prudent for Sis to petition for more CS and that probably opens to doors to examination of all the EX's relevant financial information.
This is NOT going to be a cheap adventure--depending on how well the EX has masked his activities --its going to take probably a skilled attorney PLUS a forensic accountant/tax attorney to dig in.
3. Failure of EX to pay as ordered opens up the door to seek dragging him to court to explain it to the court --now true impossibility to pay may get him off, but refusal to pay --postured in light of a luxury lifestyle might find the judge less than amused and get him hit with sanctions such as her costs and possibly loss of his various drivers/operators licenses and even time as a guest of the county jail.
Again, I suggest Sis is likley to be outgunned and she is smarter to use counsel.
4. Assuming you charge Sis fair market cost for dwelling space and child care --would Sis and her child qualify for any welfare -public assistance? Think seriously about seeking same if the facts fit---as an aside the welfare agency also has a cpacity to go back after Dad...now I doubt they have the forensic accounting talent skills on call --but it adds tothe grey cloud over Dads head.
5. If I were Sis I'd have a beautiful photo record of all the toys and cars and dwelling Dad has available for his use
If he's ordered to pay $160/month and he's not paying it, your sister needs to take him to court about it.
If she can prove he's making more than he says he is, then do that and see about raising the child support number.
The car he is driving and things like that aren't really proof in my opinion. I can telll you my ex wife thinks I'm loaded and hiding money also. I have computers and electronics all over the place. My company pays for it all. They also pay for all my phones, internet, etc.
I'm only telling you that because sometimes, things are not always as they appear.
Maybe someone is letting him use all these cars. Maybe he's up to his eyeballs in debt. You arleady know he is stiffing your sister on child support.
Anyway good luck!
Child support is based off income, not assets. People that are self employed are good at hiding money and not being truthful about their bottom line profit. also if these assets are in someone elses name, and the business, that makes it tough. Mom though should be complaining to child support enforcement and filing contempt..and asking for legal fees. if Dad is ordered to pay 160/mo and is over 5k in arrears, he hasnt paid i a few years. They can suspend his license or put him in jail. I am not sure how Ohio guidelines work but mom must have a decent documented icome if Dad is only ordered to pay 160/mo. Dads earning capability is obviously much higher than moms, the problem is proving it. Mom should see an attorney to see if there is anything that can be done. Also i hope mom gets to clai the kid on taxes..no way should Dad be claming esp. since he is in arrears. Good luck
bigbrother83:My sister's ex drives a new BMW, a Denali, a Hummer, and a Jeep Wrangler. He also has a speed boat. He has a gorgeous thee bedroom home and his belongings are owned by a business, which has been set up in his Grandmother's name.
The problem is that the fact that he uses these assets does not itself prove that he's the true owner of them or that he's earning more income than he claimed he was earning in the child support proceeding. She'd need to show that the grandmother is not really the owner and isn't deriving the income from the business — that it is really her ex that is the real person who effectively owns the business and gets the income from it. That can be done under the right facts, but she'd have to dig to get them.
All the details matter. For example, how is the business organized—corporation, LLC, or something else? If it is a corporation, has the corporation filed its returns for each year? If it is a S-corporation, have the shareholders paid their tax on their share of the business income? What is the supposed arrangement under which the company makes these various assets available to him to use? Is that arrangement reasonable under the circumstances? When and how did the grandmother end up owning the business? What is her role in the business, if any?
She might consider hiring a private investigator who specializes in financial investigations to see if she can uncover the evidence of what is really going on. Of course, that may not be cheap. She might try hiring an attorney familiar with corporate and business financial matters to participate in drafting the discovery for the next child support modification hearing to help her dig up the kind of facts needed to prove that the grandmother is simply a straw for her ex (not all family law attorneys are knowledgeable enough to do that). Again though, that will cost her some money to pursue.
It's unfortunate, but in this kind if circumstance she'll probably have to expend some money on some kind of financial expert, whether it's a financial investigator, an attorney with a finance background, or whatever, to dig up the facts and unravel what is really going on if she really wants a good shot at a significant increase in support.
bigbrother83:Moreover, he has not filed personal taxes in several years.
How does she know he hasn't filed his returns? And does she have enough information to know how much income he had to know he was required to file? Note that simply a failure to file a return by itself is not tax evasion. There is a separate crime of willful failure to file a return, a misdemeanor offense that the IRS does not often pursue, but will under the right facts. If she suspects some kind of tax fraud is taking place, she can report that to the IRS following the instructions here: reporting tax fraud. If the IRS pursues it and collects some tax out of it, she might get a reward of up to 15% of what the IRS collects. But unless she has some reasonably good information on what his income is and how he's committing tax fraud it may not go anywhere. The IRS gets a huge number of tips from ex-spouses, many of them with vague, generalized claims like "I know my ex is cheating on his taxes because he drives expensive cars and lives in a nice house." Few of those, if investigated, would turn out to actually be good cases to pursue, so the IRS only puts resources into investigating those with some reasonably good SPECIFIC information about unreported income, inflated deductions, or other tax fraud activity.
And, of course, even if the IRS does take the case, it doesn't help your sister much since the results of any audit or criminal investigation won't be made available to her. She might get a reward a few years down the line (those most tips don't result in rewards), but that doesn't help her now. If she wants increased support now, a report to the IRS or the state tax agency isn't going to be a huge help to her. She'll need to tackle this herself, and will likely need the help of some sort of hired financial expert to do it.
Thank you for taking the time to reply!
I'm in the same boat per'say my oldest sons dad owes 20,000 in back child support and his fathers mother claims him on her taxes and still I haven't received anything. He isn't disabled and he doesn't live under her roof. How can I get help?

A government minister has conceded women could receive biased advice about abortion under its proposed pregnancy counselling service.
On Thursday Prime Minister John Howard unveiled new pregnancy support measures, including a 24-hour advice hotline and a Medicare rebate for pregnancy counselling.
Mr Howard has not ruled out allowing church-affiliated groups to offer counselling to women who have unplanned pregnancies, insisting the advice will be "non-directive".
GPs will be able to refer women with an unplanned pregnancy to independent health professionals such as psychologists or trained counsellors, as long as they are not associated with abortion providers.
Human Services Minister Joe Hockey said he was confident the tender process would ensure women received appropriate advice, although he said all counsellors had some degree of bias.
"There'll be a proper tender process," he told the Seven Network.
"I don't think anyone disagrees with the fact that we've got to reduce the number of abortions in Australia.
"I believe ... a woman has a right to choose.
"But I also believe that ... a couple may need to be counselled before they actually go through with that procedure."
Asked if women seeking pregnancy counselling would received unbiased (unbiased) advice, Mr Hockey replied: "You may, yes.
"I know some religious people who would say 'Look, I think you should have an abortion' under certain circumstances.
"Any counsellor has their own bias but at least there's an opportunity to talk it through with someone."
Labor frontbencher Kevin Rudd said the government should ensure counsellors provided unbiased advice under the new system.
But he said the abortion rate in Australia was too high.
"Whether you're pro-life or pro-choice I think 75,000 to 100,000 abortions ... is too much," Mr Rudd told Seven.
