Amazon refuses to pay me for my work due to a Typo which I brought to their attnetion.
They then make up lies about how they can not run a report.
They can track everything you do on their site, send you dozens of emails for everything you look at but can't run a simple report.
I called them on their BS Bluff. I'm not an idiot. I used to work with a company that designed billing software. I've seen just how easy it is to run a database query.
Amazon has decided it's okay to STEAL FROM ME.
Classless. Totally Classless. Then I get this Email Response... and to top it off it's from a NO REPLY Email address.
"I understand that this situation is frustrating, and I regret that we have not been able to address your concerns to your satisfaction. Unfortunately, we will not be able to offer any additional insight or action for this matter.
We hope to see you again soon.
Did I solve your problem?"
Frustrating? NO it's not frustrating, it's THEFT. I did the work and now I will not be paid. That's theft.
They "Regret". You mean you have regrets about STEALING from me?
"We hope to see you soon". Really? You steal from me and you expect me to buy from you? Are these people really that callous and stupid?
"Did I solve your Problem".
Well the day will come when Amazon will go away.
Just as soon as the States get together and put a stop to their tax free status.
If this is the way you are going to treat your affliates you DESERVE to crash and burn.
I am a Professional Afflaite Marketer. I work with more than a 100 Afflaite companies.
And Amazon is the FIRST of those 100+ to INTENTIONALLY refuse to pay me for my work. The PORN industry has a higher moral ethic than Amazon and they treat their Affliates with respect, because they understand their value.
Amazon was built on the backs of Affliates... this is truly pathetic.
But this is also Corporate America where the Customer Services Monkey's do as they are told so they can keep their $10 an hour benefitless jobs.
Sad sad Pathetic Amazon.
I can only hope HubPages will have enough class to allow the TRUTH to be posted. But I would not be surprised if they did not. You see the Internet is not really free speech.
Hi Mike
I have read your Hub and now the same in the forum and all i can say is that it is your own fault that you put in the wrong code, you can't pin the blame on someone else for your mistake.
If I put in a wrong code then it is my mistake I don't go bad mouthing others for something that I did wrong.
yes sometimes mistakes cost us money and that is tough luck but Amazon are not to blame.
Amazon have millions of affiliates, each with individual correct codes, how can they track a code that does not exist?
Get over it and stop bad mouthing, rectify your mistake and start earning from your pages that have Amazon ads instead of going into a strop and spoiling your own future earnings from them.....jimmy
When peole work for you... you pay them.
There is no question there was a typo.
How you track the code is very simple. It's a database. You query the uniqe misspelled typo. It's very very easy to do. I worked for a company that designed billing software. I worked with the programmers. Its basically a 1 line command.
You don't think Amazon can track an Affiliate ID... but they can track everything that you look at?
Well think it's okay to cheat people out of their money then perhaps you should go to work for them.
Mike I read your hub too, but after 2 years and 366 hubs, did you not suspect something was wrong before? You say you are an affiliate marketer yet you never wondered why you had no sales?
I find that a bit odd when we regularly have newbies on the forums asking about how it all works, and loads have posted inside the past couple of years about their Amazon successes here.
And you never wondered why until recently?
The first thing I'd have done if, after writing Amazon sales hubs, and I see you have some, would have been to check that my code was inserted properly.
You have a point in that I fail to see why Amazon cannot track the wrong number you put in, then again, if the number doesn't exist....! There is nothing they can do.
Amazon is a miniscule amount of income for what I do over all. A few hundred a month is a lot to most hubbers, but it's chump change over all. But it's still my chump change. And you find out what a business is like when you have a problem. Anyone can take your money.
Real relationships are built on trust and built over time. Amazon has proven they can not be trusted.
I manage over 100 Affiliate relationships across more sites than you would care to know.
And I have Amazon on other sites so I was getting paid for those other sites. I do not have Amazon on all of these hubs, and Hubpages takes 40% of the impressions. As a 3rd party I can not track things that happen on hubpages as well as I would like too.
I know a lot of you spend a lot of time here writing and tweaking hubs. I actually do not. I don't spend much time writing here either. In any given week when I'm working full on I could easily write 100 articles and more for my other hubs. That's why a lot of my HubPages stuff has typos, poor grammar, and doesn't always read so great. It's not that I don't care about the quality, it's that it's not worth the time to go back and try and make everything perfect because there is no benefit to doing so. The Internet doesn't penalize poor writing, in fact it often rewards it.
How many accounts do you manage and do you make over $100K a year?
So while this is a small amount over all... I still deserve to be paid for my work.
"So while this is a small amount over all... I still deserve to be paid for my work."
If you put the correct code into your account in the first place then you would have been paid for your work"
when you dial a wrong number on your phone dont expect to get the person you were trying to call in the first place.

I was a little leary on ordering from a company I had never heard of before but after texting with one of our agents I decided to chance it and I'm so happy I did.

They came very professionally packed with the special touch of bring wrapped in tissue paper sealed with a company logo sticker. Each flip flop comes in its own box. I added a little poem to each one to personalize it a little. If they could be engraved before shipping that would be awesome. I will be purchasing from this company again.

The Voting Rights Act of 1965, which turned 50 in August, is widely regarded as the crowning achievement of the civil rights movement and the most important civil rights law of the 20th century. When he signed the legislation at the U.S. Capitol, President Lyndon Johnson described the act as the final victory against America's original sin of slavery. "Today we strike away the last major shackle of those fierce and ancient bonds," Johnson said.
The act had an immediate transformative impact. Literacy tests were suspended across the South, the attorney general filed lawsuits successfully challenging the poll tax, and government observers were sent to monitor elections in the South's most segregated areas. Within days of the act's signing, federal examiners were registering black voters at a rapid clip in places like Selma, Ala.
The law has enfranchised millions of Americans over the last five decades and enabled the election of the country's first black president.
But the act didn't end the debate over voting rights, as Johnson predicted. In recent years there has been a proliferation of new measures to tighten access to the ballot, such as requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote, shutting down voter-registration drives, curtailing early voting, disenfranchising ex-felons, purging the voter rolls, and mandating government-issued photo IDs to cast a ballot.
After the 2010 election, half the states in the country, nearly all under Republican control, passed laws making it harder to vote, with the aim of making the electorate older, whiter, and more conservative instead of younger, more diverse, and more progressive.
Pennsylvania was one of them. In 2012, House Republican leader Mike Turzai predicted the state's strict voter-ID law would "allow Gov. Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania." The law was ultimately blocked in court because "hundreds of thousands of electors in Pennsylvania lack compliant ID," wrote Judge Bernard McGinley, and the state "wholly failed to show any evidence of in-person voter fraud" to justify the measure.
Pennsylvania has since moved in a different direction under Gov. Wolf, adopting reforms to expand access to the ballot, such as online voter registration. More than 44,000 people have submitted voter-registration applications online since the program launched in late August.
The movement to restrict the franchise gained steam after the Supreme Court gutted a key section of the Voting Rights Act in 2013, ruling that states with the longest histories of voting discrimination no longer have to approve their voting changes with the federal government.
Texas implemented a strict voter-ID law – which allows someone to vote with a handgun permit but not a state-university-issued ID – that had previously been blocked under the Voting Rights Act. North Carolina passed a sweeping restructuring of its election system that repealed or curtailed every voting reform in the state, such as cutting early voting and eliminating same-day voter registration. Alabama – the birthplace of the Voting Rights Act – passed a voter-ID law similar to Texas' and then in September announced it would close 31 Department of Motor Vehicle offices in the state where voters sought to obtain the newly required ID, many in majority-black counties.
In March, many members of Congress visited Selma to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Bloody Sunday march, led by Rep. John Lewis (D., Ga.), who nearly died marching in Selma. "Right now, in 2015, 50 years after Selma, there are laws across this country designed to make it harder for people to vote," President Obama said in Selma. "One hundred members of Congress have come here today to honor people who were willing to die for the right to protect it. If we want to honor this day, let that hundred go back to Washington and gather four hundred more, and together, pledge to make it their mission to restore that law this year."
Few Republicans have heeded Obama's call, opting for symbolism over substance. Twenty-one Republican members of Congress visited Selma, but only two of them have cosponsored legislation to restore the Voting Rights Act.
As a result, the 2016 election will be the first presidential contest in 50 years where voters will not have the full protections of the Voting Rights Act. What should be the most settled right in a democracy – the right to vote – remains the most contested.

Not that The Clientele are all about one person, for part of the unique charm of the group is that each brings their special ingredient, proof of which was evident in the beautifully restrained acoustic set I was fortunate enough to experience at the Hangover Lounge just a week and a half ago. All the parts in perfect place, slotting together just so.
It is inevitably a case of preaching to the converted in this particular forum, and I'm aware that the vast majority of the people reading this will be fully cognisant of the wonders of The Clientele. But should you have stumbled here by chance then I hope that this single sliver of delicious temptation will convinced you to dig deeper and to continue to spread the word.

Nordica Ave. Chicago, Illinois 60638 [View Map] Park Hours: 6:00 AM-11:00 PM Park Supervisor: Kathleen Murray Park Phone: (773) 229-1421 Description Facilities Map Description Located in the Garfield Ridge neighborhood, Stars and Stripes Park is a great recreational destination enjoyed by park patrons and their families.This park contains a playground, sprinkler, ball field, and a sand volleyball court. Little League Baseball is a popular activity that is played at Stars and Stripes Park. History In 1970, the Chicago Park District began creating a 1.7-acre park in the Garfield Ridge community, then experiencing tremendous population growth and a shortage of recreational facilities. Purchasing the property using U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grant funds, the park district improved the site in 1973, constructing a playground, a spray pool, a basketball court, and a baseball field. Since 1984, a mobile trailer/fieldhouse has provided space for indoor activities. Several years later, a soft surface playground replaced the original one. In 1976, the park district officially designated the site Stars & Stripes Park. The patriotic name was selected through a Bicentennial Committee contest conducted in the surrounding 23rd Ward. The name makes reference to the American flag, with its red and white stripes and white stars on a field of blue. Each of the stripes represents one of the original thirteen colonies, while the stars signify the nation's fifty states.

You'll want to start considering positioning. Personalizing your marketing will probably position a person as a boss.

For Contest: Logo for upcoming DJ / Producer / Videographer GROUNDLAND
Thanks, I have selected this design as the winner!
Please can you contact me with the final design with that A changed and the multiple formats?
Hi there
Of course you could, I have made the changes that you have requested.
Reflections on the Silver version are a bit different than on the Gold one, but I believe that you would be pleased.
Final versions of the logo would be delivered in multiple formats, as well as in high quality PNG format.
I will take your logo #1 as long as I can get that A flattened at the bottom and have it in the following:
Gold with reflections.
Silver with reflections.
Black with no reflection.
White with no reflection.
ALL as PNG high quality files please.
I like this logo! but can the bottom line of the A be flat instead of curved?
And can this be done in a few variations? All silver with the reflections like the gold / PNG file / flat black with no reflections.
This is my favourite logo yet. Cheers! Daniel
Something like that perhaps?

Derek Jeter First Game as Yankees Captain Season Ticket Stub June 3, 2003 Reds

June 3, 2003 Season Ticket stub in very good as seen in the scan at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati where Derek Jeter of the New York Yankees plays in his first game as New York Yankees Captain. George Steinbrenner named Jeter the captain of the Yankees on June 3, 2003, following eight seasons without a captain after Don Mattingly retired in 1995. On June 3, 2003, Jeter was named captain of the Yankees in an oddly timed ceremony in Cincinnati. Impulsive Yankees owner George Steinbrenner made the decision to anoint Jeter without much fanfare as the team's first captain since Don Mattingly. The Reds Defeat the Yankees 4-3 as Jeter has one hit.Be sure to view all my other auctions for Hank Aaron, Barry Bonds and Mike Schmidt HR ticket stubs and Pete Rose hitting streak ticket stubs and Nolan Ryan win and strike out ticket stubs.

Review: Sony Ericsson Vivaz
Form Basics Extras Wrap-up Comments 3
Is It Your Type? Body The Three S's Touch
Sep 3, 2010, 5:55 PM by Eric M. Zeman @phonescooper
Sony Ericsson fields an 8.1 megapixel shooter with S60 5th Edition under the hood. Despite its potential, the Vivaz has problems.
AD article continues below...
If you're the touch-happy, I-need-a-killer-camera-phone type, then Sony Erisson's 8.1 megapixel packing Vivaz could fit the bill. If you plan to use it as anything beyond a networked camera, however, the Vivaz is sure to disappoint.
Hands On with the Sony Xperia X Compact
Sony's compact flagship manages to pack a lot of technology into its tiny frame. The most compelling feature for most potential buyers is likely to be the 23-megapixel camera.
Review: Sony Xperia XZ1
The Sony Xperia XZ1 is one of the first smartphones to run Android 8 Oreo. It packs the latest processor and camera technology into Sony's age-old, metal-and-glass chassis.
Review: Sony Xperia Z3 for T-Mobile
Sony's Xperia Z3 is an excellent addition to T-Mobile's lineup. Anyone invested in Sony's gaming and content services would do well to consider it.
Review: Sony Xperia X - Unlocked
The Xperia X is an unlocked Android smartphone that Sony is selling directly to consumers. The phone departs from Sony's Xperia Z series in ways that are both good and bad.
Hands On with the Sony Xperia XZs
The XZs is a carry-over from last year. Sony took the XZs and gave it many of the amazing powers lurking under the hood of the XZ Premium, such as the camera sensor and image processor.
Symbian needs to get their act together.

Movie review of "Old Stone": A single act of decency ruins a man's life in this Chinese movie. Rating: 3 stars out of 4.
As a title, "Old Stone" conveys virtually nothing about the Chinese production that bears the name (it's, in fact, the title character's nickname translated to English.) In its stead, may I humbly offer, "No good deed goes unpunished."
The good deed: A cabdriver accidentally runs down a guy on a motorbike on a city street. Neither the cops nor an ambulance show up as the victim writhes and bleeds. Onlookers gather and bray contradictory advice. "Don't move him!" "Take him to the hospital, it's not far!" The cabbie, feeling responsible and merciful, acts. He takes the guy to the hospital.
Bad decision.
Movie Review ★★★
'Old Stone,' with Chen Gang, Nai An. Written and directed by Johnny Ma. 81 minutes. Not rated; for mature audiences (contains language, adult situations). In Mandarin, with English subtitles. Grand Illusion, through Thursday.
Stand back and watch in dismay as the Samaritan's life proceeds to implode.

Writer-director Johnny Ma turns the poor soul into a modern-day Job, gradually ground down by trials practically past counting. He's left on the hook for the victim's hospital bills because he didn't follow the cab company's procedures, which called for him to have reported the accident before transporting the man to the hospital. Caught in the cogs of unfeeling bureaucracies — the police, the insurance industry, the hospital — and castigated by his wife for plunging the family into debt, he becomes desperate. And desperation can drive a man to desperate deeds.
The litany of woes builds inexorably. Star Chen Gang plays the protagonist as the saddest of sad sacks, his eyes filling with hopelessness as his burdens bury him.
Director Ma has made a quietly merciless picture, a horror movie, really, about a decent man, an ordinary man, left alone, bereft, embittered, ruined by his act of decency. One hopes for justice for such a man.
One hopes in vain.

Replacement Gienow window channel balancer
A quick learner from Minnesota says:
June 9, 2016
Can someone help me identify two channel balancers I need to replace? Attached is a two page pdf showing the markings on each as well as dims of the top/bottom parts.
Tom from SWISCO responded:
June 10, 2016
Hey, Matt! Thank you for the great pictures and dimensions, they're a huge help for us. My immediate recommendation based on your measurements is our Series 390 channel balance. My only concern is the length. It looks like you have a 27" long balance (26 5) and a 26" long balance (25 4). Are these in the same window, or two different windows? If they're for two different windows, then it's no problem. I'd recommend our S390-27 with a 2650 option and S390-26 with a 2540 option, respectively.
If they are in the same window, then we'll need to dig a little deeper. They really should be the same. If this is the case, please tell me the weight of the sash these balances support and the height of the visible glass for the selfsame sash. Thanks!

4 photos I stitched together, I was using a macro lens adapter so every time I moved my camera I had to refocus.
Your photo has to be my absolute favorite out of the winners chosen! It's simply too cute and the catapillar really is the main focus with its warm and vibrant colors against the darker neutral colors. Lovely~! ^^
congrats on second place!!!
wow amazing
Really great shot (or multiple, great work on that)!
Congratulations on being one of the winners! This photo was certainly much different from any of the other ones, and you did a great job thinking outside the box. I also like that the bight colors of the caterpillar are a sharp contrast to the dark background.
Beautiful composition and lighting...
Bullshit, it's a macroshot that's been cropped.
Think what you like, it doesn't matter to me, But if I had a macro lens I would have gotten even closer. I was using a macro filter and to get that close and still get everything in focus I had to take several shots and stitch them together. It would be stupid of me to enter macro photo that is cropped liked that. After all what do I show if they ask for proof????? Hmmmm wonder what I would do.
A 32.8 megapixel cropped macro image? Damn, I want a camera that can do that!
Personally I find this a little soft, but that's kind of inescapable with a macro filter. But I'm stunned and full of admiration that you managed to make a macro panorama work at all. I'm not surprised it took about 50 shots to get what you needed.

Are you happy that you took the risk? Did it pay off? Did you learn from it? Would you do it again?
sort by best latest
When I think back, I guess the biggest gamble I ever have taken is marrying my husband after only knowing him for under 4 months. I was only 19 and realize now that I didn't really know him. The first time he got angry I was stunned - in the 4 months we dated - he was always in a good mood!!
It worked out just peachy. We have been married for 42 years, have two children and grandchildren---and adore each other. Yes, it worked out, no I would not risk marrying after so little time again. It was a risk that worked out, but wouldn't for everyone, or every time - so no I do not recommend it.

There are benefit of solar energy, and anyone who wants to use this type of energy should get solar panels installed in their home soon. They will want to get started with this because they will save money the longer they use them, and there is no better time than now to install them. They will not spend money on electricity like they did before, and they will be happy to be rid of that bill.
So, anyone who is thinking about the advantages of solar energy should know that there are many economic advantages of solar energy. This is something that they will not regret for any reason, and they will be glad that they decided to use something that will help them to be at their best financially. Their home will be better and they will feel good about the money that they are spending, when they use solar energy in their home.

Islamabad, Apr 1 : Though democracy has returned in Pakistan and new democratic government is in place in Islamabad, but the military hangover doesn't seem to be over yet. It could be witnessed from the fact that new Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has nine military officers in his staff who assist him in his day to day work.
According to an article published in The News, if all Army officers are being pulled out of the civilian positions, why the prime minister should keep nine military officers with him.
It said that though in case of President Pervez Musharraf, attachment of 12 officers seems justified, there is no reason to continue with this when there is a civilian rule in the country.
In functioning democracies so many military officers never surround an elected leader as part of his/her personal staff, the article said and added that already questions are being raised about the rationale of keeping such a large number of uniformed officers in the personal staff of the president and the prime minister.
"This could even create misunderstandings between the civilian and military establishments, if these officers start playing games in the vested interest of one or the other side," it quoted a newly elected member of parliament as saying.
The most vital officer with the Prime Minister is his principal secretary, who is a civilian, however, there is no accommodation available for this officer within the premises of the PM's House. It is also attention-grabbing that the security officers from military are housed in the PM's House but those from civilian normally get usual government accommodation in different sectors of Islamabad.

Build up your economy and upgrade your base to draw in more survivors to your community, but beware the stronger you get the more likely other factions will start looking at you. The choices you make of who you decide to be in this new world determine how the world and its people will treat you.

Going with the "Fall of civilisation" idea ->
you should make it there is a "parasite" team, that steals from the other teams abilities, and they are born with more simpleminded assertiveness, so if u take the talent and give it assertiveness, then the team that had the powers eventually succumbs to the parasite team. (make them shrivelled little ugly wimps (but make them highly motivated.) at the beginning, but then things start to get more competitive halfway through.)

Some members of HoR meet with Presidential Council of GNA
Deputy Presidents Emhemed Shouaib and Ehmeed Homa headed a House of Representatives (HoR) delegation that met with PM of the GNA Faiez Serraj and the Presidency Council (PC) of the Government of National Accord (GNA).
|The HoR members were from the south. The Presidential Council (PC) said the meeting was organized in a bid to find a mechanism that would achieve "a high level of national consensus" and a "means of enabling the HoR in its role as the legislative authority" of Libya. Presumably this means the legislative authority of the Government of National Accord (GNA), as required by the Libyan Political Agreement (LPA). There is no mention of the necessity for an amendment to the constitutional declaration of 2011.
The meeting shows a number of interesting things. Firstly, that the PC still recognizes the sole, legitimate, legislative authority of the HoR in Libya, despite the fact that in Tripoli it has started to act as a legitimate authority prior to its GNA being approved by the HoR.
The pro HoR political forces in the east are split into at least two camps. On the one hand they support a PC/GNA in principle, but insist on it being protected by an independent-of-militias and so called ''Islamists'' army in Tripoli. The pro Hafter and Federalists in the east insist on Hafter leading any Libyan National Army. To this end, the Hafter camp object to article 8 of the Libyan Political Agreement (LPA) and will not allow a vote to go ahead in the HoR approving the GNA prior to article 8 being dropped.However, those who accept the GNA in principle also demand that section 8 be dropped.

Taking out the trash may one day be a thing of the past. Reaching zero waste to landfills by 2030 will take close collaboration between waste managers, the city, non-profits and landlords. All were represented at our recent panel moderated by Amy Marpman (Recycle Track Systems). Elizabeth Balkan (NYC Department of Sanitation) outlined the progress the city has made and the challenges it faces. Stephanie Barger (USGBC) put New York's experience in perspective talking about the history of waste and experiences from across the country. Helena Durst (The Durst Organization) gave a case study on the rapid adoption of composting by commercial tenants.
Panelists Elizabeth Balkan, Stephanie Barger, Amy Marpman, and Helena Durst
Eight and a half million New York residents produce over 20,000 tons of waste each day. Knowing what's in the waste stream is key to creating successful mitigation programs. The two largest streams are curbside recyclables at 33% and compostable organics at 31%. Balkan said proper separation at the source is essential. For example, food scraps and yard waste sorted at the beginning are easier to process. The next segment is divertibles at 10% and includes textiles, plastic bags, and e-waste.
Of course, actual collection is never so clean cut. Things get muddy when the remaining slice of "other" waste is mixed into each stream; garden hoses jam up the processing machines, and it turns out bowling balls don't compost well. Contamination aside, Balkan explained that efforts to divert waste streams from landfills are moving along, but it will take design and manufacturing shifts upstream to make 0x30 more than an aspirational goal. However, NYC's organics program is currently the nation's largest and on track to be expanded to all five boroughs by next year.
What gets measured gets done. Barger explained the Zero Waste Facility Certification, which requires a 90% diversion of waste from landfills and incinerators. The certification was created over the last decade and is being administered by GBCI as of November 2016. The guiding principles of the certification go far back. Barger noted that there's no waste in nature and that many indigenous cultures didn't even have a word for it. "Zero waste is a cultural change. It's where we came from and where we're going," and she believes that a shift in today's language from "waste" to "surplus" could be a good start.
A key element of zero waste is emulating sustainable natural cycles and transforming discarded materials into resources for other uses. However, for Barger, the order of priority in strategy is: "reduce, reduce, reduce, reduce some more, rethink design, reuse until broken beyond repair, and then recycle, which includes composting." An example of eliminating materials from the waste stream at the source is California's ban on plastic bags. This diversion was backed by marine organizations and intended to keep bags out of the ocean and away from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch—a massive gyre of microplastics and other non –biodegradable debris. Rethinking disposables also presents benefits on the supply side. Toyota's switch to reusable shipping containers helped the company cut down costs.
Soil for gardening is not the first thing you think of when looking at New York's high-rises. The Durst family, one of the city's major commercial property owners, is shifting perceptions with 170 tons of compost collected in their buildings in 2016. Helena Durst noted that the company sees the collection process as a value-added attraction for tenants. She reiterated the importance of source separation and effective communication. Bins with clear signage help commercial tenants separate wet from dry waste in pantries, and posters showcasing the positive impact of participants' efforts boost engagement.
Compost collection has boomed. Between 2015 and 2016 the number of tenants participating has grown from 32 to 105, earning the program recognition in NYC's Zero Waste Challenge. Notably, the Durst Organization facilitates a semi-closed cycle by returning some of their tenants' compostables to the buildings as rich soil for their green roofs.
Given the scope of New York's waste, there are plenty of challenges ahead, but last week's panel clearly demonstrated the dedication and innovation of many key players who are paving the path towards a zero waste city.
Thank you to Fisher and Paykel for hosting our panel!

DETROIT - Brett Favre sported a white T-shirt, carpenter's pants and a scruffy beard.
It was the only time he looked like just another guy on Thanksgiving.
Favre set a Green Bay record with 20 consecutive completions and finished with a season-high 381 yards and three touchdowns in the Packers' 37-26 victory over the slumping Detroit Lions.
"I threw it. They caught it," he said simply. "Nothing spectacular."
Yeah, right.
The three-time MVP put together another sensational performance that made the 38-year-old quarterback look as if he's back in his prime. Favre's seventh 300-yard game of the season matched a team mark he set in 1995.
"He's the greatest ever," Lions quarterback Jon Kitna said.
Green Bay (10-1) matched its best 11-game record since 1929 and the NFC North leaders took a four-game lead with five games left in the regular season.
The Packers can improve their chances of earning home-field advantage if they win next week at Dallas - also 10-1 after manhandling the New York Jets 34-3 later Thursday.
"One game is not going to define us," Favre said. "It may have some implications for the playoffs, but we can't worry about that right now.
"We're going to enjoy this one today."
The Lions would love to forget it.
Detroit (6-5) lost its third straight game, making its playoff picture bleak because it would lose wild-card tiebreakers against the New York Giants, Washington, Philadelphia and Arizona.
"We aren't where we want to be, but we are where we need to be," Kitna said. "We have to get to 10. Ten gets you in."

@article {65871, title = {Southwest transformation: eras of growth and land change in Las Cruces, New Mexico}, journal = {Southwestern Geographer}, volume = {14}, year = {2010}, pages = {57-87}, abstract = {
The United States Southwest is the incubator of the country\&$\#$39;s fastest growing urban landscapes, but few studies have quantified urbanization in the region. Using geospatial and archival research techniques our objectives are to assess rates, patterns, and drivers of land change in Las Cruces, New Mexico between 1955 and 2007, thereby stimulating more dialogue on the transformation of Southwestern landscapes. Our results suggest that Las Cruces may be on a path toward urban immensity. During the last fifty years, the city\&$\#$39;s population has grown at an average annual rate of 4.5\%. The landscape became transformed concomitantly: almost 30\% of the study area was converted from farm- and rangeland to residential and urban development. The pattern of development changed over time. Between 1955 and 1980, farm- and rangeland were perforated and dissected to make room for housing and infrastructure developments, causing the landscape to become increasingly fragmented and heterogeneous. Between 1980 and 2007, fragmentation continued, but was replaced in some areas by the shrinking and attrition of left-over farm- and rangeland and by the coalescence and growth of residential and urban clusters. Major drivers of growth included natural gain; in-migration from Mexico and the United States due to Sun Belt climate, federal employment, and other factors; as well as the conversion of a large government land base to private development. Absent viable land conservation programs, the formerly little known community of Las Cruces may face the same growth trajectory as major Southwest urban centers, slowed only temporarily by the current recession. land change/ urbanization/ landscape fragmentation/ population growth/ southwest/ Las Cruces}, keywords = {JRN, urbanization}, author = {Buenemann, M. and Wright, J} } @article {67561, title = {Ecological Services to and from rangelands of the United States}, journal = {Ecological Economics}, volume = {64}, year = {2007}, pages = {261-268}, keywords = {JRN, provisioning services}, url = {bibliography/07-031.pdf}, author = {Havstad, KM and Peters, D.C. and Skaggs, R. and Brown, J. and Bestelmeyer, BT and Fredrickson, E.

Hailed as "mesmerizing" (New York Times Book Review) and "as if Cormac McCarthy decided to rewrite Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird" (Richmond Times-Dispatch), A Land More Kind Than Home made Wiley Cash an instant literary sensation. His resonant new novel, This Dark Road to Mercy, is a tale of love and atonement, blood and vengeance, a story that involves two young sisters, a wayward father, and an enemy determined to see him pay for his sins.
When their mother dies unexpectedly, twelve-year-old Easter Quillby and her six-year-old sister, Ruby, are shuffled into the foster care system in Gastonia, North Carolina, a little town not far from the Appalachian Mountains. But just as they settle into their new life, their errant father, Wade, an ex-minor-league baseball player whom they haven't seen in years, suddenly reappears and steals them away in the middle of the night.
Brady Weller, the girls' court-appointed guardian, begins looking for Wade, and quickly turns up unsettling information linking him to a multimillion-dollar robbery. But Brady isn't the only one hunting him. Also on the trail is Robert Pruitt, a mercurial man nursing a years-old vendetta, a man determined to find Wade and claim what he believes he is owed.
The combination of Cash's evocative and intimate Southern voice and those of the alternating narrators, Easter, Brady, and Pruitt, brings this soulful story vividly to life. At once captivating and heartbreaking, This Dark Road to Mercy is a testament to the unbreakable bonds of family and the primal desire to outrun a past that refuses to let go.
"Jenna Lamia's remarkable performance makes her the star of this ensemble audiobook. Her impeccable North Carolina accent and pitch-perfect expression enliven Easter's mixed emotions.... Erik Bergman's slow, gentle voice is a match for Brady's kindness, while Scott Sowers makes listeners shiver with his rendering of Pruitt, a sociopathic hit man." (AudioFile)

Easter offers chance at redemption; but no spark
- W Perry Hall
A very fine book
Yes: Gripping story, with complex, imperfect characters.
A land more kind than home, Mr. Cash's first book: A book about failed fatherhood told from multiple first person narrators.
The female reader for the female protagonist lends nice tone and subtlety.
Nice work again from Mr. Cash. A very fine book.
- Benjamin
