They first promise you they will do this and that and they will never call you back, ignore your calls, replying after more than 5 days to emails, offering boosting connection service obviously at extra cost, customer service is never reachable, it is all based on LIES! their wifi doesn't ever connect to the device in the whole flat/house. and finally they were making contract cancellation procedures very difficult to me so I would potentially give up or change my mind, stay away from Sky!… Read Full Review

First of all, I'm a Network Engineer. I've had 3 ISPs in the last 12 years. Pipex, Be, and SKY Pipex were great. Until they got bought out. Be were brilliant, right up until I left looking for a cheaper deal Sky? Sheesh, absolute nightmare. two week long outages with me doing all the chasing for updates/progress Unsteady line and long outages. I don't think it's ever been up for 24hrs without a break.

I've been a Sky+ HD, telephone and broadband customer for the best part of 3 years and during that time had very little issues with the (non-customer support) service received in return for my £60 pcm. The broadband was always fast and reliable, the phone line was always active and the HD TV quality was great. When we first signed up to Sky 3 years ago, they confirmed an installation date and then didn't even turn up/communicate they were no longer coming so having taken a day off work… Read Full Review

I was an o2 customer of many years, moving house in January 2014, and agreed to take Sky at the new address as they have taken over o2. It has been trouble from my first call.

Was very happy with the service from O2, reliable broadband with consistant speeds of 13-14Mb, no dips. Customer Service was always excellent too. So I was very disappointed when I was informed Sky had bought them. Oh no I thought that's the end of that! So I decided to move to someone else but I was contacted by Sky with an unbelievablely good offer for a load of TV channels called Entertainment Extra +, phone line and broadband.

Since switching to Sky last month I have been left without a working phone line on 3 separate occasions and forced to spend a fortune phoning their premium rate customer service number from my mobile many times.

After carefully weighing up my options I decided that I would give Sky a go, and I'm sorry to say that I wished I hadn't. I cannot comment on the reliability or the speed of Sky broadband as well over two weeks after signing up with them I'm still without a service.

Hello, everyone!
So, here's the thing: I'm planning on writing a Teen Wolf fanfiction this year, but I'm having a few little problems. Please help me, if you are interested.
First of all, I can't decide that what kind of fanfic should it be, a Derek/OC or an Isaac/OC one. I'm sure of one thing: I don't want a love triangle - I always hated them.
The reason why I choosed this two characters, because:
- they're in my top 3 favorite male characters from TW
- they're both lonely, they have nobody for who they are the most importants (yeah, Derek has Peter, and Isaac and Scott started to become friends, but that not's the same)
I really can't choose between these two, but I can't write a fanfic where they both have a love life, I know myself - I wouldn't be able to. So please write down your opinion, what would you prefer to read: a Derek/OC or an Isaac/OC fanfiction.
Pretty please, help me!

The Internal Revenue Service's Office of Professional Responsibility has disbarred a former Massachusetts CPA and attorney for falsely claiming to be a CPA on power of attorney forms that he submitted to the IRS even after his CPA license had been revoked.
Charles M. Edgar was licensed as a CPA and lawyer in Massachusetts. In December 2010, the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Public Accountancy revoked his CPA license based, in part, on his 1995 federal conviction for making false statements to the government in connection with claims for disability benefits and mail fraud. Edgar's license to practice law in Massachusetts was suspended in 1995, based on the criminal convictions. His petition for reinstatement to the Massachusetts bar was denied in 2001.

"I loved going to BYU and it was really chill," said Leiataua, who is rated the No. 37 defensive end prospect in the 2014 class. "I went up there last Saturday and we also went up to Utah."
The 6-foot-4-inch, 265-pound Dominquez High School recently picked up an offer from the Utes.
"My coaches have told me that Utah has offered me," said Leiataua. "I asked them about BYU and he said he hasn't heard from them. I just called Coach Tujague and he said they haven't offered. He told me they are interested in it but they have a scholarship shortage because of return missionaries."
There were three potential recruits that attended BYU's practice on Monday. One was Thor Katoa and his younger brother, who play for Pineview High School in Saint George. The other was Leiataua, who is LDS and holds BYU as his number-one choice.
"I actually visited BYU twice," said an excited Leiataua. "I went [Monday] and I went last Saturday. It was really cool because Coach Tujague spotted me out of the crowd. He was like, 'Uriah!' and came over to give me a big hug. I was going in to give him a handshake but then he gave me a big ol' hug! I just thought that was really great."
Tujague wasn't the only coach that he met with.
"I then had a chance to meet all the coaches and it was great," Leiataua said. "Coach Mendenhall was in his normal clothes and he came up to me, but I didn't really know it was him and had a mouth full of food. It was kind of funny. After that all the other coaches came up to us like Coach Poppinga, Andrew George and Coach Kaufusi. It was really cool."
The visit was a unique experience for Leiataua.
"Yeah, I [loved] attending practice yesterday," said Leiataua, who will be leaving home for California on Tuesday. "It was really cool and I got a chance to have some chalk-talk time with Coach Kaufusi and the other d-linemen. They let us in and we saw all the scrimmage film and they were discussing the different plays. It was really cool."
However, he left BYU's campus without the one thing he was really hoping for, and that was a full-ride scholarship from Coach Mendenhall.
"I was actually a little bummed out after I left," said Leiataua. "I didn't get an offer because of the shortage of scholarships with all the missionaries coming back, so I was actually a little bummed out. I know they're really interested in me because Coach Tujague and Coach Kaufusi made sure that I was able to see all the drills they were doing during practice. They wanted me to follow them so I could see it. It was really cool."
But the big Samoan who holds BYU dear to his heart is staying positive and is hopeful that in time he'll receive that scholarship offer.
"That's my school! BYU wants me to attend a camp but it's going to be hard for me this summer. I'm already in a program for this summer to go to Samoa that's being paid for by the University of Wyoming. It's an all-expense paid thing for nutrition and they pay all the expenses to go to Samoa. I'm also putting my application in for S.O.A.R., which is a multicultural program to help students for college preparation. So, I don't know if I'll be able to go out to BYU's camp."
Leiataua wants to try and at least make it out to BYU for one day if all goes as planned. With the scholarship crunch facing the Cougar program over the next few years, Leiataua is going to have to weigh the value between possibly receiving a coveted BYU scholarship and attending another summer program.
"Yeah, I talked to the coaches about all of that," Leiataua said. "I told them that I'm planning on going to these summer programs, and they just asked me to just show up for one day. I'm really trying to do that and I want to show up for at least one day. I'm going to try and do that."
Leiataua is a member of the 2014 class. Following high school he plans on serving an LDS mission. That would mean he would return around the 2016 season if he leaves right after high school.
"I'm hoping that maybe they'll have some scholarships available. I'm hoping everything works out."

Viagra Possibly Linked to BlindnessMay 27, 2005 | CNN ANDERSON COOPER 360 DEGREES
COOPER: There's a disturbing new report out tonight about a possible devastating side effect of popular impotence drugs like Viagra and Cialis. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is investigating whether the drugs cause a rare form of blindness. Already, the government is looking into reports that 38 users of Viagra suffered permanent vision loss. To put that in perspective, 28 million men take these drugs, so 38 is a relatively small number, but alarming nevertheless. 360 MD Dr. Sanjay Gupta is following the story, joins us from Atlanta with the latest Sanjay.
SANJAY GUPTA, CNN SR. MEDICAL CORRESPONDENT: Anderson, yeah, the numbers are very small, that's the first thing to point out here; 38 Viagra users, also four Cialis users and one user of Levitra having these sorts of problems.
Important to put this in context a little bit. There has been some known visual problems with Viagra in the past. Not blindness per se, but difficulties with colors. Actually, seeing bluish and greenish hues after use of this particular medication. So there is a little bit of a history there.
But now what we're specifically talking about is a sort of stroke-like thing in the back of the eye. That's the optic nerve there. Those are some of the blood vessels actually turning dark. That's what happens in this particular condition, and what is causing a permanent sort of visual problem here.
We're talking about all of the various drugs for erectile dysfunction, again, Viagra, Levitra and Cialis. If you look at that, again you see the animation there, but what's important to point out is that this is just an association. No one yet, Anderson is drawing an exact link between any of these medications and blindness. They're saying they're seeing this in small numbers. They're investigating a little bit further right now, Anderson.
COOPER: All right. I want to listen to what the Pfizer Vice President Michael Berelowitz had to say about the reported problems linked to his drug, to Viagra. Let's listen.
MICHAEL BERELOWITZ, PFIZER: We've looked in 103 studies at 13,000 patients. And basically remembering, these are the patients who have erectile dysfunction. These are people who have erectile dysfunction by the very people who will be taking this treatment, and we did not see any cases, we did not see any cases of NAION in those studies.
COOPER: I mean, he seems to be inferring there's absolutely no connection. What have these studies found?
GUPTA: You know, it's interesting, Anderson. I have talked to the researchers who actually conducted these studies in detail about this. What you will find, first of all, interestingly, is if you look at this sort of stroke condition of the eye, it exists in the general population among people who have never taken one of these medications. That's worth pointing out.
But in the people who did take the medications, what got everyone's antenna sort of up was the timing association. Meaning, they take the medication, then they'd have a visual problem. They wouldn't take the medication, they didn't have a visual problem. Then they would take it again, and the visual problem would come back. So it was that timing that sort of got everyone sort of concerned.
Again, it's an association at this point. They haven't proven that it actually causes this, but they do say that the same people who are most likely to be taking these drugs, Viagra, Cialis and Levitra, are also the same people who are more likely to just have these strokes in the first place. So it's hard to figure out what's causing what here, Anderson.
COOPER: So a patient comes to you and says, should I stop taking these? Should I keep taking them? What do you tell them?
GUPTA: Well, first of all, you know, there's no direct link now between the drugs and the blindness. So you can't say for sure to stop taking these medications. If you've ever had a problem with your eyes in the past, if you are at high risk because of high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, history of smoking, things like that, then you could be at higher risk for stroke. Then it's probably worth talking to your doctors about. Numbers are very small, Anderson. Most of the people watching today, they will never have this happen to them.
COOPER: All right. Dr. Sanjay Gupta, appreciate it.

Video: Coffee and Cats at the Denver Cat Company
The Denver Cat Company opened last month as one of the first cat cafes in the U.S. Customers can sip coffee and cuddle with a number of cats, provided by Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue, while perusing books, jewerly and other items for sale. Videographer Andrew Batemen dropped in to visit with cafe owner Sana Hamelin and her feline friends to find out how the Berkeley neighborhood is responding to this new idea on Tennyson Street.

Cats enjoy attention at the Denver Cat Company.

All of the cats at the cafe are adoptable from the RMFR, so Hamelin hopes they'll all find good homes and that customers will get to spend time with new cats in the cafe on a regular basis.

Question about Acer AL1912B 19" LCD Monitor
When I came back to work Monday my computer was off and the monitor too. After switching it back on my monitor power light keeps blinking green but it doesn't work. I have switched out the cables and still the same. Has anyone else had this happen?
Posted by astana on
I would turn the computer on the monitor would turn on for a second, then reset multiple times and then shut off with the green light just blinking, i would then try various different combinations of turning the monitor off, and on, and cutting the power to the monitor completely, it sometimes fixes it, sometimes not,
My monitor turns on and acer comes up, then it says no signal then goes blank. the little green light by the power button turns orange then and the screen stays blank, i havent been able to get it to work since it began to have this problem.
I have the same problem..blank screen and flashing green light.
I recently had the same problem occur on my LCD Panel and this is the response I received from ACER.
Thank you for contacting Acer America. I apologize for the inconvenience that you have experienced. If the green power on LED blinks rapidly, it means that the monitor is not getting any signal from the computer. It is possible that the monitor may have faulty internal component, I suggest that you send your monitor to a local repair shop to have it tested properly.

Hey, it might be multiple things, first thing, check you db 9 pin connector, the VGA connector for bent or damaged pins, basicaly, unplug the mon cable form the back and check the connector and the port on the pc...It might also be the monitor problem, if you can take your monitor to another pc or laptop and connect, then test it, if problem stays with you pc, then you have a bad system board, or video card, if problem follows your monitor, then replace the mon and get it fixed...

By Kelley L. Carter, USA TODAY
LOS ANGELES Thousands of fans — and dozens of famous faces — made their way to the Nokia Theatre for the premiere of Michael Jackson's This Is It.
The documentary film, which was created using more than 100 hours of raw footage that was shot as the pop star prepared for his never-to-be comeback series of 50 concerts, is a behind-the-scenes look at Jackson's final weeks.
VIDEO: Scenes from the premiere
Director Kenny Ortega said the film's goal was to "tell a story for the fans."
Creating the film "was powerful. There was laughter, there were tears," Ortega said. "This is not the journey that we thought we'd be on, but we had to do this for the fans. This has been very healing."
Michael's brothers — Marlon, Randy, Jermaine and Jackie — walked the red carpet to support the film, which they said they had not yet seen.
"This is what Michael would like to share, his work. He'd be most proud," Jermaine said. "I want the film to show that with hard work and dedication you can achieve anything."
Choreographer Travis Payne recalled rehearsals with Jackson.
"Michael was at the top of his game. He was in wonderful form," he said. "This has been so tragic, but what would be more tragic is if this (film) didn't get out there."
Jackson vocalist Dorian Holley called the film "a beautiful piece."
"You could see that Michael was seeing from the first time his vision coming to life," Holley said. "I think he'd be very happy at this reception. His legacy is intact. Now his children get to see what made their dad so special."
A cross-section of entertainment heavyweights, including Paula Abdul, Jennifer Lopez and Berry Gordy, joined the Jackson family and the film's cast and crew at the premiere.
American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert called Jackson an inspiration.
"We all loved Michael Jackson, and this is going to be a great way to celebrate the music and the legacy," he said. "His videos were like movies, and I hope to do something like that with my career."
Vivica A. Fox spoke to Jackson's everlasting influence.
Jackson "left us with so much," she said. "He inspired so many. He was colorless. He was a worldwide star that we will always celebrate."

Integration Problem: Time Field not sending data into Google Drive.Asked by barefoottours on May 28, 2013 at 01:53 PM
I'm having an issue where cetain columns in my google drive spreadsheet are not showing the data that has been inputted.
Also....The data is coming through in the email notification though, so it seems like it's not blank from some sort of user error.
Hello, I see the problem you are having with the data not going through. I tested this myself on a copy of your form to check for errors and realized that the same problem reoccurred. There is definitely a bug since I was able to replicate it after 3 different attempts so I am forwarding this issue to our Development Team to get it corrected as soon as possible and thank you for reporting it to us.
Test 1:
Test 2: (I changed up the Time into a Range Usage which is by itself in a new form)
This data should be populating into the Google Spreadsheet so I think there is probably a bug that occurred which broke this data being sent.
Is there any advance on this issue? I have the same problem.
JotForm Support
There's no updates about this as of the moment. If you have encountered the same issue, please open a separate thread so we can address it to our lvl2 team and so you will received updates once it's fixed.
I am very sorry for this quite late update, as we have built our Google Integration from ground up around April 2014, it is working as expected since then.
Thank you for your understanding
Kind regards

"They said they were going to bid, asked for all those regulatory mandates, and they decided they're not going to play," McSlarrow said. "I have no idea if they're going to do the same thing today."
He said it is "unrealistic" for Google to be considered a new competitor for existing service providers.
"They're not planning on turning themselves into an internet provider. It's an experiment. It's one gigabit per second and, by and large, there are very few PCs and laptops in America that can handle that kind of capacity. That will change over time, but you can't even use that today if you have that kind of device."
Cable customers already have access to that much capacity, but it is split between phone, video, Internet and other interactive services, McSlarrow said.
Google said it will apply net neutrality rules to its new testbed networks--something McSlarrow said he welcomes as an "experiment." But he said he is "leary of asking the federal government to impose all those rules at the outset when we already have a world that works out pretty well...and has allowed companies like Google to flourish."

Nevada City man allegedly passed out behind the wheel after ingesting heroin
February 21, 2013
Grass Valley Police responding to a report of a man asleep in a running vehicle allegedly found him with a syringe in his hand and with more than 11 grams of heroin.
A caller reported the man inside a Chevrolet at Alta Vista Drive and Alta Street shortly after midnight Friday, according to dispatch reports.
Officers found Vincent Michael Joseph Nigro, 29, passed out inside the vehicle, said Sgt. Joe Matteoni.
He was arrested on suspicion of possessing a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia, as well as being under the influence of a controlled substance. He was booked into county jail on those charges, as well as on suspicion of bringing drugs into jail; it was not clear what was found during the booking process. He was being held in lieu of $12,000 bail.
Nigro had been arrested on similar charges in Grass Valley in early October after allegedly being found passed out in a running vehicle that was stopped at a light with a needle in his arm. In that incident, he was charged with driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Early Monday morning, a woman was arrested in Grass Valley after being found in the 200 block of Sutton Way, allegedly passed out behind the wheel of her vehicle, which was in drive.
Lindsay Gaydos, 23, was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and being under the influence of a controlled substance. She was booked and released from county jail on $2,404 bail.

Cespedes Returns; Straily Set To Start For Oakland
The Oakland A's struggled mightily without their star outfielder in the line-up, and Yoenis Cespedes made his presence felt immediately in his first game back with Oakland on Sunday. Cespedes hit a two-run homerun with one-out in the 9th inning to bring the A's into an 8-8 tie with the Baltimore Orioles. The A's would win the game in the bottom of the 10th when the Orioles made a throwing error on a bunt attempt.
Before Cespedes' blast, the A's looked set for their fifth straight loss and a four-game sweep at the hands of the Orioles. Even with the win, the A's are 2-8 over their last 10 games. The A's have lost five games in the standings to the Texas Rangers over that stretch and are 14-12 on the season, 2.5 games behind Texas for first place.
Pitching has been a big problem for the A's during their rough 10 games. The rotation could be in-store for some changes in the coming weeks. Dan Straily will start for the A's on Monday in place of Brett Anderson, who will miss the start with a strained ankle. Anderson is expected only to miss the one start, but Straily could stick around for the longterm if he pitches well and Jarrod Parker, Tommy Milone or A.J. Griffin struggle in their next turn.
Straily allowed two runs in 6.2 innings in his only other start for the A's this season. That start came against the lowly Houston Astros and Straily struck-out a career-high 11 in that game. He was sent back to Triple-A Sacramento after that game to make room for Bartolo Colon. Since returning to the minors, Straily has been very effective. In three starts, he is 3-0 with an 0.96 ERA. Straily has a 20:6 K:BB ratio in 18.2 innings and, perhaps most importantly, he hasn't allowed a homer.
The A's designated OF Casper Wells for assignment to make room for Cespedes on the 25-man roster. Wells was claimed by Oakland on Monday from the Blue Jays and he appeared in three games for the A's. Wells went 0-for-5 with a strike-out. This is the third time Wells has been DFA'd since the end of spring training.
Jane Lee of MLB.com reported on Twitter that RHP Jesse Chavez will be sent back to Sacramento on Monday to make room for Straily on the 25-man roster. Chavez made three relief appearances for the A's. He allowed three runs in 4.1 innings with three strike-outs and a walk. Chavez had been in the starting rotation for Sacramento before his promotion and he could return to the rotation when he gets back to Sacramento.
Taylor Powers River Cats To Sweep
Michael Taylor hit two key homeruns over the weekend to give the River Cats three straight wins and a four-game sweep over the Salt Lake Bees. Taylor returned to the River Cats from Oakland on Thursday. He went 0-for-9 with three strike-outs on Thursday and Friday, but then on Saturday hit a game-tying homer in the River Cats' come-from-behind win and then homered again on Sunday. Taylor now has five homers in 13 games for Sacramento this season.
The River Cats benefited from Yoenix Cespedes' rehab assignment Thursday through Saturday. He went 3-for-9 with five runs scored, four RBI and a homerun.
Middle infielder Jemile Weeks hit his first homerun of the season on Sunday and he went 3-for-7 with four walks on the weekend. Weeks has 14 walks in 22 games this season.
Utilityman Grant Green had a homer and four RBI on Saturday and is riding a five-game hitting streak. He had five hits in 11 at-bats over the weekend and is batting .425/.511/.575 over his last 10 games.
Outfielder Michael Choice hit safely in all three games this weekend and he has a six-game hitting streak. Choice walked three times this weekend and he has a .404 OBP in 22 games this season.
Right-hander Bruce Billings has been off to a slow start this season, but he had a good outing on Sunday. Billings replaced Dan Straily as the starter and went six strong innings to earn the win. He allowed a run on three hits. Billings didn't walk a batter and he struck-out five.
Left-hander Hideki Okajima struck-out the side for the save on Saturday. It was his fifth straight outing without allowing a run. Okajima has 14 strike-outs and he has walked only one batter in 11.2 relief innings this season. The veteran reliever is holding opposing batters to a .175 average.
RockHounds Drop Two-of-Three To Missions
After an 11-4 win over San Antonio on Friday, Midland dropped two straight one-run games to the Missions on Saturday and Sunday. Sunday's 4-3 loss came in 11 innings.
First baseman Anthony Aliotti had two hits in each of the three games this weekend. He is batting .350 over his last 10 games and .348 for the season. Three of Aliotti's six hits this weekend were doubles. He has eight doubles on the season.
Outfielder Jake Goebbert hit safely in all three games this weekend and he now has a 15-game hitting streak. Goebbert was 4-for-13 on the weekend. He is batting .320/.393/.533 in 75 at-bats this season.
Right-hander Zach Neal allowed 11 hits in 7.2 innings on Friday, but he still earned the win. Neal struck-out five and walked only one. He has a 2.25 ERA and a 21:5 K:BB in 28 innings this season.
Right-hander Sean Murphy had another strong outing in his second start for Midland since his promotion from High-A Stockton. On Saturday, Murphy allowed two runs in 5.2 innings. He struck-out six and walked only one. Murphy has 11 strike-outs and four walks in his first 12.1 innings for Midland.
Shortstop Dusty Coleman had four RBI on Friday and he is riding a five-game hitting streak. Coleman is now batting .315 on the season.
Outfielder Jeremy Barfield homered on Friday, giving him a team-high five homeruns for the season. He went 3-for-3 with two walks in that game. His OPS is up to 872 for the year after a slow start.
It has been a very slow start to the season for catcher David Freitas, but he had a possible breakthrough game on Sunday when he went 2-for-4 with his first homer of the season. Freitas has only seven hits in 40 at-bats for Midland this season through Sunday.
Corner infielder Miles Head continues to struggle in the early going. He went 2-for-11 this weekend, and he is hitting only .183/.230/.293 in 82 at-bats overall this season. Head has walked only four times and he has struck-out 20 times.
Stockton Slugging It Out Down South
The Stockton Ports swung the bats well over the weekend, but they dropped two-of-three to the High Desert Mavericks. On Friday, the Ports lost, 9-6, but they rebounded for a 17-7 win on Saturday. They lost the last game of their roadtrip, 11-6. The Ports will have an off-day on Monday before starting a homestand on Tuesday.
Infielder Antonio Lamas had a big weekend. On Saturday, he collected five hits in seven at-bats, and he went 7-for-13 with a homer and three RBI on the weekend. Lamas has a .342/.405/.500 line with three homers in 76 at-bats this season.
Outfielder Josh Whitaker extended his hitting streak to six games with a 6-for-13 effort this weekend. Whitaker has put a slow start behind him and has an 838 OPS over his last 10 games.
Third baseman B.A. Vollmuth homered two times and walked three times over the weekend. Vollmuth is having a strange season at the plate. He is batting only .165 and he has struck-out 28 times in 22 games. However, he has six homeruns and a .430 SLG with 16 RBI.
Infielder Tony Thompson had two homeruns in the Ports' win on Saturday. He doubled his season total in that game. Thompson has an 818 OPS over his last 10 games.
A's 2012 top pick Addison Russell hit his first homerun of the season on Saturday and doubled in Sunday's game. Russell's slash line for the season is still only .200/.353/.327, but he has a .211/.388/.368 line over his last 10 games. Russell has walked 13 times in 14 games, although he has 22 strike-outs.
Reliever Pedro Vidal returned to the Ports on Thursday after spending a week with Triple-A Sacramento. He took David Mota's roster spot. Mota was placed on the disabled list with a left foot contusion.
Beloit Drops Three In A Row
It was a tough weekend for the Beloit pitching staff, as the Snappers dropped three in a row. On Friday, they lost a slugfest, 16-10, to South Bend, and then fell to the Silver Hawks in a series finale, 13-5, on Saturday. The Snappers began a new series with West Michigan on Sunday and lost the opener, 5-3.
A's 2012 supplemental first-round pick Daniel Robertson made his regular season debut this weekend for Beloit. Robertson was held back at the start of the season at extended spring training to finish rehabbing his knee. Robertson had surgery on the knee to repair a torn meniscus last fall.
Robertson appeared in two of the three games this weekend (Friday and Sunday). In his Friday debut, Robertson went 3-for-4 with a homer, a double and a walk. He scored three runs and drove-in three. Robertson went 1-for-4 with a caught stealing on Sunday.
Fellow 2012 supplemental first-round pick Matt Olson hit his first homerun of the season on Sunday. The first-baseman got off to a slow start this year, but he has been hot lately. Over his last 10 games, Olson has a .290/.476/.484 line with 11 walks, three doubles and that homerun. Olson has a four-game hitting streak through Sunday.
Third baseman Renato Nunez extended his hitting streak to 12 games over the weekend. Nunez only went 3-for-13 this weekend, but he is still batting .385/..429/.667 with 10 RBI over his last 10 games.
Outfielder Brett Vertigan hit safely in all three games this weekend to raise his average to .274. He had a triple on Friday and a double on Saturday and was 4-for-12 overall.

Overview Edit
The Federal Reserve System (FRS) is the central bank of the United States created by Congress and consisting of a seven member Board of Governors in Washington, D.C., 12 regional Reserve Banks, and depository institutions that are subject to reserve requirements.
All national banks are members; state-chartered banks may elect to become members, and state members are supervised by the Board of Governors and the Reserve Banks. Reserve requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board apply to nonmember depository institutions as well as member banks. Both classes of institutions are given access to Federal Reserve discount borrowing privileges and Federal Reserve services on an equal basis.
The FRS examines and supervises State member banks and bank holding companies. It establishes reserve requirements for members and nonmembers, distributes currency and coin, assists in the processing and clearing of checks for both member and non-member institutions, and acts as the fiscal agent for the Federal Government. FRS services are paid for by the users.

Cross the border into Guatemala and you immediately notice the difference in culture, with its heavy Mayan influence and Spanish language. Here we have entered Guatemala's northeast jungle Petén region. The descendants of the Maya of Chichén Itzá migrated to the Petén area several centuries after the collapse of the great Mayan cities in the Yucatán.

A travel day from Flores to Rio Dulce which is located in the department of Izabal, home of the largest lake in Guatemala, Lake Izabal was one of the most important water ways of the Spanish crown during colonial times.
We take the road past areas of dense jungle and arrive at Río Dulce, a small town on Lake Izabal and a port stop for boaters around the globe, on their way to/from Livingston and the Caribbean coast.
Private Vehicle (4.00-5.00 hours, 210km)
Opt to visit the coastal town of Livingston by boat, go for a swim in a natural hot waterfall, take a sunrise kayak to visit groups of noisy howler monkeys, or take a horseback ride through the rubber plantations combined with a visit to the Shaman Tower.
Today is a travel day from Rio Dulce to Antigua, followed by an orientation walk once you arrive. Plan your activities for the next day and enjoy some of the nightlife this beautiful colonial city has to offer.
Your Chief Experience Officer (CEO) will take you on a brief orientation walk to help you get your bearings. While you're here, opt to take a mountain bike ride out into the countryside or explore the fascinating markets, shops and museums within the city.
Included Activities:
Orientation Walk
Salsa Lesson
Private Vehicle (6.00-7.50 hours, 315km)
Relax with a massage, climb a volcano, soak up the culture of this colonial town's many museums and cafes, attend a chocolate workshop, visit one of the local coffee or macadamia nut plantations, or explore the nearby hills and towns by bike.
Travel through the hills and fertile fields of the Guatemalan highlands to the shores of Lake Atitlán, one of the most beautiful spots in Guatemala. Twelve native villages, blue/grey mountains and three volcanoes line the shores of this lake resulting in a wonderful combination of unusual natural beauty and traditional culture.
The area is also ideal for outdoor pursuits like swimming, fishing, wind surfing, hiking, bird watching, kayaking, and horseback riding.
Additional Notes:
Note: Please dress conservatively when visiting the villages and refrain from photographing religious ceremonies, or individuals who do not wish to be photographed.
Private Vehicle (2.50-3.50 hours, 80km)
Embark on a boat ride across the lake before participating in a G Adventures-supported homestay with a local family. This area is known for stunning scenery and great shopping for Mayan handicrafts. Opt to bargain for colourful textiles and paintings at the lake's markets.

Author | Nitin Sharma | Tuesday, Jul 08,2008 8:22 AM
The first round of judging for EMVIES 2008 was held on July 7. Organised by the Ad Club Bombay, EMVIES recognise and award the most outstanding media initiatives developed over the year gone by. Though the judges are positive about the number of entries this year, they have called for improvement in all the categories, both from the media planners' and agencies' perspectives.
Jasmin Sohrabji, Managing Director, OMD, one of the judges in the media strategy category, felt that the quality of entries hadn't improved since last year. "I would say there has been some progress, but not of kind that one could easily take notice of," she said, adding, "There are too many entries that have come in different categories. For me, the presentation style in each entry has to be unique to the category, and at the same time be crisp and focused as per the entry."
M&C Saatchi's Rakshin Patel said, "There has been a lot happening in the digital domain, and I guess the media planners are now giving its due importance, but it is important that media planners get the hang of the technology so that they can communicate effectively with the target audience." On the quality of the entries, she said that it was on rise.
Commenting on the entries in Direct Marketing category, Patel said that this year the quality of the entries was "not path breaking".
Chandradeep Mitra, President, Mudra Max, was one of the judges for the Radio and Cinema categories. Commenting on the quality of entries in radio, he said, "One noticeable thing is that there has been a lot of use of RJs in delivering brand messages." Commenting on the entries in Cinema, he said, "50 per cent are just product placements. Cinema can be a good medium if one takes into account merchandising aspects in cinema, and also looking at integrating a brand in the film rather then just placing brand in the movie without any content."
Being positive of repeating her success is Nandini Dias, COO, Lodestar Media, who said, "For the past four years, Mindshare has always been our close competitor. Last time, we won, and this time, too, we are hoping that we will win. The quality of entries in 'Media Strategy' has improved since last year, especially in the writing part."

Just in from AP: A Swiss court granted Roman Polanski bail today, accepting $4.5 million to allow him to remain under house arrest at his chalet in the Swiss resort of Gstaad. He will be monitored by an electronic bracelet.
The verdict does not affect the Swiss Justice Ministry's ongoing assessment of whether Polanski should be extradited to the United States for having sex in 1977 with a 13-year-old girl.
The court said Polanski would be subjected to "constant electronic surveillance" at his chalet and an alarm would be activated if he leaves the premises or takes off the bracelet.

Welcome everyone to Book 11 of The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. You can find the schedule to Knife of Dreams over HERE. Everyone is welcome to join us!
This week, Eivind is our host and you can probably find him in the comments. Make sure to swing by Liesel's Musings on Fantasia for cool non-spoilery fan art and hop on over to Sue's Coffee, Cookies, & Chili Peppers for some great deductive reasoning skills in calculating how things will fall out with the plot.
I had to post late this week because we had a flood last week and I was just wiped out from the actual event and then clean up efforts.
This week, we covered the Prologue and Chapter 1. Spoilers run rampant for this section and all previous books below!
1. Eamon Valda finally buys it, and Galad is now (at least de jure) Lord Captain Commander. Do you think he will be able to muster the children and fight back in any meaningful way? Or is this effectively the end of the order?
Well, I was looking for something else perhaps 2 months ago (perhaps a list of the Forsaken) and the answer to this question was revealed. I guess folks aren't big into spoiler warnings for this series since it has been out for so long. Perhaps I should reveal the ending to The Hobbit?
Digressing…….Back to the question. First, before stumbling upon that bit of info, I would NEVER have expected Galad to rise to Lord Captain Commander. While he is a stickler for the rules, he is also a good person. I can't see him raping and torturing his way through a country like Masema's men do (and some of the Whitecloaks). And the 2 previous Lord Captain Commanders have been pretty ruthless.
So with that in mind, Galad is going to have to get a bit more ruthless, and suspicious, in order to stay alive, let alone retain the title of Lord Captain Commander. But I can't see Jordan just letting this constant nuisance dressed in snazzy cloaks & armor fade out. So I expect them to be around for the end of the world.
2. The Seanchan suffer some shocking defeats at the hands of Ituralde. Suroth is furious and sends away almost all the air scouts. Will this help Mat out? What do you think is in the future for Ituralde?
First, Ituralde has incredible fashion sense, with the lace and the beauty patch on his face. Very chic.
I think anything that unbalances Suroth, who we know to be a Darkfriend, will help Mat or one of our other heroes. So if Ituralde's sense of style (on or off the battlefield) does that, I am all for it.
Some of our WoT Quad have mentioned that Ituralde is the last of the greatest battle generals to enter the storyline. So I expect him to win a lot of battles, some of them decisive. I don't know if he will survive to the end as we have had only tiny little bits of him so far. And I expect some of the key players will have to die in the final 3 books.
3. Semirhage has been busy in Seandar, and Seanchan as we know it (or more accurately, didn't know it), has ceased to exist. Without support from their homeland, do you think the return is now doomed (in the long term)? Might this force them into accepting an alliance with Rand, once it becomes known?
Yes!!!!! Oh, when I heard this, I did a little dance. I know, I shouldn't root for Semirhage, but the Seanchan have been pissing me off since they first appeared on Randland thinking they could just conquer the entire land and that they were entitled to do so.
Now with their homeland all in tatters, I hope they realize they will need to make alliances, respect the various peoples of Randland, in order to simply maintain their existence and their possible chance to return home and resurrect their homeland.
4. The Black Ajah hunters have stalled, and Pevara is now being sent away on a mission to bond Asha'men. Talene managed to hide, but Alviarin is still on the right track. Where do you see this storyline going?
Uh….Well, perhaps I wasn't paying close attention….again.
I expect Pevara to fail at forcing a bond upon Asha'men. Period. Though it could turn rather amusing if she is bonded to one of them.
Alviarin is highly motivated to serve the DO, so I expect her to continue to cause trouble until someone kills her.
5. Of all the things that could happen between Galina and Perrin, what were you wishing for? Do you suppose she succeeded in stalling him?
Galina was doing a lot of lying and I wondered if Perrin could smell her lies and played along with part of it? Of perhaps he could only smell fear on her, which could be explained by the Aes Sedai fear and revulsion towards Asha'men.
If he didn't pick up on Galina's lies, then I want to slap him upside the head. He knows that things may not be as they seem. He has met and fought with Wise Women. So he knows that just because you can channel doesn't mean you are bound by oath to tell the truth.
The rude little evil part of me wishes that Perrin had tortured Galina to verify the truth.
As for stalling Perrin, no. It sounds like they were nearly set to follow through on some plan anyway and that grabbing Galina just gave them a little extra info.
6. Egwene has been installed as a novice again, and sees advantages in her situation. How badly do you think will Elaida regret not having her tried? Is Egwene right in refusing rescue? And do you think she will manage to hold the rebellion together by proxy (in tel'aran'rhiod)?
Oh yes, I definitely hope that Elaida comes to regret not having Egwene beheaded on the spot. I really want Elaida to regret that decision just before she is exiled, Stilled, or killed. Or perhaps all 3. I'm easy that way.
Yes, Egwene is right to refuse rescue just yet. She is in a unique position to learn a lot about her enemies in the White Tower and get that intel to the Aes Sedai outside the Tower through T'A'R.
As for being able to hold the rebellion together….well, I think the Aes Sedai who greatly desire power and see the rebellion as a way to it will hold the rebellion together. Of course, they might not do much to help free Egwene so I hope she packed some clean undies for her (probable) long stay in the Tower.

You know that feeling you get when everyone around you is singing and you all know the song well enough to enjoy yourselves fully, even try out a few harmonies, have the confidence to look around and smile at the people around you …?
A birthday party, perhaps? Or a sporting event where everyone knows the chants that lift the team's spirits, "Let's go, let's go, Blue Jays…"; a sing-along that is specifically geared to a particular age group: "kids' music," "seniors' music"; a church where hymns are selected by a few and shared among congregants; a political rally; or youth sharing songs on their ipods, ear buds in place, shuffling through their fav songs together.
These are all valuable ways that we can connect and share our lives through the power of song.
What about that feeling that comes from "spontaneous" singing, (like in musicals that we know and love or Glee) where strangers become friends, new songs are learned quickly and fairly easily, and there's that almost immediate feeling of "oh yeah, I belong here. I feel accepted. My voice is okay. Gosh, I can't believe I'm singing and everything's still okay, great, in fact!" I've had a few experiences in my life that have altered my notions of community singing in very memorable, moving, and inspiring ways. Times when I've been surrounded by others, usually in a casual atmosphere, and the gift of song is shared spontaneously, and I've lost a little bit of fear and gained a greater feeling of belonging. There's something magical about just singing together in someone's living room, around a campfire, huddled around the piano, or at one of our choir rehearsals.
It can really happen! This is how we teach children how to sing. We make eye contact, we smile, we teach them the words orally, we review again and again. There's lots of time, space, and repetition for a little person to learn how their voice works. Singing is a skill. It can be learned. Can you imagine someone saying to a one year old, "Stop singing, you're no good at that."?
We can all sing. And we all deserve to be able to sing in meaningful, socially connective ways. Community choirs in the Ubuntu Choir Network learn songs orally. We share songs that have meaning, that demonstrate hope, courage, life-affirming themes and that welcome everyone into the experience. The songs are generally easy to learn (a 5 minute or 10 minute song) and have lots of opportunities for rich harmonies, layered vocal parts, and are sung in many languages. A shared repertoire is created, a shared song-history with other people. And so, at a potluck, a rehearsal, a community event, a memorial, or a birth, we can break out into joyful or healing song, look around at our neighbours and friends and know that we belong. We have a place in the choir, we have a place in our community.
The YGS! Chorus was first established in the summer of 2011. I ran a singing workshop for a few years prior to this called "You Gotta Sing!" My primary reason for starting this as a community choir was to create a safe space for all people to sing together, regardless of their experience as singers or non-singers. I believe that all people can and should have the opportunity to sing with others. As a singing teacher, I have come across too many people who have been shut down and musically wounded by being told to stop singing or that their voices weren't good enough.
We have somewhere between 40 and 60 singers, depending on the season. There is no audition and there is a full bursary available for those who aren't able to pay the registration fee, for whatever reason.
We end each season with a Celebration Concert, like the one we are doing this Friday. This is an opportunity for the choir to perform songs from the current season as well as a community singing component that I lead with the entire audience. (Those who wish to can sing along; those who wish to listen can do that also!) Everyone involved in the concert is volunteering their time and talents, and 100% of the net proceeds are donated to, in this case, the Stephen Lewis Foundations' Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign.
We do this in the spirit of "giving back" to the African cultures, whose songs we are singing and to really make a positive difference in the world around us by singing together. The power of community singing can heal not only individuals within our own community, but also within the wider global community!

According to Verizon Wireless' complaint, the defendants "have been inundating Verizon Wireless and its subscribers with millions of unsolicited commercial electronic messages." In one day alone, the defendants supposedly attempted to send about 152,000 unsolicited commercial electronic messages to thousands of Verizon Wireless subscribers.
The complaint states that the spam messages that were sent to the handsets of subscribers of Verizon Wireless' service were transmitted through fraudulent means, including the use of materially false or misleading information specifically intended to mask the identity of the senders. The spam messages allegedly advertise a variety of products and services, including adult content Web sites, software products, herbal supplements, mortgage leads, and various business opportunities.
Verizon Wireless contends that these spam messages cause "damage" to Verizon Wireless and its subscribers. For example, the messages cause annoyance and unwanted chargers to subscribers. Furthermore, the messages impact Verizon Wireless by "clogging its computers and computer system, co-opting the valuable resources needed to deliver legitimate messages, and causing Verizon Wireless to dedicate equipment, software, and personnel to block, filter, process, switch, and transmit spam messages."
The complaint alleges that the defendants have violated the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, a New Jersey statute that provides for civil liability for computer-related offenses, that the defendants also have trespassed upon and made illegal use of Verizon Wireless' personal property, and have conspired with others in unlawful conduct in violation of New Jersey common law.
In addition, it is alleged that the defendants have invaded the privacy of Verizon Wireless subscribers, while having been unjustly enriched at Verizon Wireless' expense by misappropriating advertising services on Verizon Wireless' proprietary network.
Verizon Wireless is requesting the federal trial court to issue an injunction prohibiting further unlawful spamming conduct, actual damages of $500 per offending message, then tripled because of "willful" conduct, further economic damages, punitive damages, restitution of and benefits gained by the defendants, and attorney's fees.
Long story short, Verizon Wireless is coming out with guns fully blazing. While the laws cited by Verizon Wireless do not precisely address cell phone spam specifically on point, until such a law is enacted, let's hope that the cell phone spam problem does not escalate like the e-mail spam nightmare, and let's wish Verizon Wireless luck in its lawsuit.
However, and unfortunately, even if Verizon Wireless prevails, the victory may not be much of a deterrent to other cell phone spammers, as many of them are quite capable of shielding their identities, are judgment-proof in terms of not having tremendous financial resources to pay a judgment, or are located outside of the United States, making the pursuit of a lawsuit against them in the United States difficult at best.
