How to delete obstinate folder in Program Files
There's a folder in Program Files that I want to delete but I encounter a variety of obstacles when I try.
If I try to delete it at the Program Files> root, Windows Explorer reboots.
If I try to first 'delete up from the bottom', working through a series of sub-folders to delete the innermost file, which has worked on other occasions, I get an error message saying that the file might not even be there, that it might be on another hard drive or a network.
Trying to delete any of the folders in between, earns an error message saying that nothing can be removed, because there are files being used someplace.
Not having used Safe Mode much, I wasn't sure what special thing to do while in there. I couldn't delete the folders, at any rate.
It must be an infection. The path is:
Program Files > Google > Desktop > Install >and then some numbers.
At the same time, AVG is detecting "CRYPT_s.CCD", "Luhe.sirefef.A", and "IDP.Trojan.5E976F8B".
I'm assuming the two issues are related.
Someone must've left a door open. How do I chase this thing (or these things) back out?
|My System Specs
|07 Sep 2013
right click on Google folder and take ownership of the folder on the security tab, then set permissions to full for all users. Keep working on the security tabs to take ownership of the files, and change the permissions to full access, see if that helps you delete these folders. Also apply changes to all sub folders.
|My System Specs
|07 Sep 2013
Trying to change Permissions didn't work:
(If I touch it, it just tightens around the computer's throat. Cutting it releases acid...)
|My System Specs
|07 Sep 2013
make sure you take ownership of that folder first before you change permissions, see if that helps. go to each one and take ownership, i know the process is slow, but trust me it works.

Windows 7 Pro. 64/SP-1
Did you try removing the program using Run as Administrator?
|My System Specs
|07 Sep 2013
CREATOR OWNERIf I try to make any changes at all to CREATOR OWNER, even just checking the Read box, I get a pop-up window saying that access is denied.
This thing's rooted-in.
If you mean something else by 'taking ownership' I'll need to have it explained to me.
|My System Specs
|07 Sep 2013
Likewise, when I right-click on the topmost folder to the Root (Program Files > ), I see that all the checkboxes in Administrator's Edit window are unchecked. Attempting to check any of them gets the same error message, that access is denied.
|My System Specs
|07 Sep 2013
OK first, go to security tab on the selected file, look for "Advanced" tab, click it, search for owner "change", look for "advance" tab and search for Administrators, double click and apply, a message should pop up saying you took ownership.
|My System Specs
|08 Sep 2013
On my system there are a couple differences in the path. The first couple of steps are the same as what you describe.
0) Right-click folder
1) Security > Advanced
2) In Advanced: Owner
3) in Owner the single option is "Edit"
4) In Edit are two listings: my name, and Administrators, plus a check-box which reads "replace owner on subcontainers and objects"
I clicked on Administrators so that it appears in the box labelled "current owner" and I checked the "replace owner..." box. I Applied that.
A message advised me that I'd need to reopen the target folder before I could make any changes to it.
I exited-out to the Program Files root, then right-clicked the folder, clicked on Administrators, attempted to gain permissions, and was again denied access.
I must have missed a step or misinterpreted something because of the differences in the interface on this system...?
|My System Specs
|08 Sep 2013
P.S. Is there anything in the Install disc's Repair tools that can scrape this thing out of the Program Files?

I have a time field with input mask as short time ie 12:12
If the time entered is single digit hour eg 01:10 or 09:59 which then become 1:10 or 9:59 I am unable to duplicate the record using the duplicate button on my form. This is because when duplicated it doesnt fit the input mask
Is there a way to get around this without removing the input mask
thank you

Not sure how your duplicate button works, but maybe if you use the "Format" comand as part of your code?
or if you are using Access2002

Primary avalanche problems for Saturday thru Monday will focus on Loose Wet.
Loose Wet will be a concern in the Low (where snow is present) to Mid elevations, especially south of Rock Creek, as the snow thaws during the AM, primarily on NW-W-SW-S-SE-E aspects thru Monday. Upper elevations the concern is focused on SE-S-SW aspects.
Sat thru Monday – Low and Mid elevation natural avalanche unlikely, isolated triggered releases possible on steep terrain 35 degrees and steeper.
Caution – Potential Slide For Life conditions may exist due to firm spring snow conditions prior to thawing. A minor slide into hazardous terrain can have serious consequences.

Likelihood ?CertainVery LikelyLikelyPossibleUnlikely
Size ?HistoricVery LargeLargeSmall
Overnight temperatures fell well below freezing in most locations last night (5/12) and are forecasted to remain cool for the forecast period. As temperatures climb today (Saturday) the surface snow will thaw and increase the potential for Loose Wet avalanche thru the day. Use extra caution in and around rock outcrops and below cliff bands where triggered releases are more likely. Timing is critical for avoiding Loose Wet releases. Easterly aspects thaw first, followed by southerly, then westerly, and finally northwesterly aspects as the spring sun moves across the sky. Lower elevations thaw more quickly than higher elevations. Watch for signs of unstable snow such as large roller balls, deep ski penetration, and small point releases.
Sat thru Monday: Low to Mid Elevations – Natural avalanches unlikely, triggered Loose Wet Avalanches are possible on NW-W-SW-S-SE-E aspects, Upper Elevation – Natural avalanches unlikely, triggered Loose Wet Avalanches are possible on SE-S-SW aspects, especially where sheltered.
- Loose Wet slides are dense and heavy, which can make it difficult to extract yourself if entrained and are capable of carrying a rider into hazardous terrain or lead to possible burial when combined with terrain traps.
- Glide Slides – Recent sightings of Glide Cracks on SE aspects below ~11000' elevate the concern for Glide Avalanches. Where encountered, give them wide berth and avoid riding on or under slopes where they are present.
Spring weather will continue to rein for the next few days before a change coming early next week when winter will make a brief cameo appearance. A fast moving weather system passed through the region Saturday (5/6) bringing: cooler temperatures, 4" to 8" of snow over the high country, and light to moderate southerly winds, which then shifted to northerly as the system began to move off to the east. The heaviest snowfall was from Mammoth north with a consistent 6" to 8", south precipitation was a bit more spotty. The new snow bonded relatively well to the underlying melt/freeze crust with little internal weakness and has transitioned rapidly to corn or near corn snow as the storm moved east and sunny skies returned with temperatures rapidly rebounding to well above normal.
Prior to the latest storm (5/6), spring has been the dominant theme with overnight temperatures struggling to fall below freezing and daily highs climbing well above seasonable with upper 50's and low 60's recorded in many locations above 9000'. The combination of weak freezes and unseasonably warm temperatures resulted in the upper snowpack becoming isothermal where the snowpack is shallow. Glide cracks have been observed on solar aspects below 11,000' on steep slopes with smooth underlying terrain. A weak spring storm moved through the region Wednesday (4/26) with moderate to strong winds, cooler temperatures, increasing cloud cover (primarily Mammoth north) and light precipitation over the upper elevations forming very isolated and shallow Wind Slabs in the upper elevations primarily on N-E-S-SW aspects. The last significant storm to sweep though the region was Tuesday (4/18/17) with 3" to 12" inches of new snow reported across the forecast area above ~8500'. However, snow levels fluctuated considerably during the storm with many areas receiving rain Monday before turning to snow in the early morning hours on Tuesday. Snow levels rose once again during the day, Tuesday, with rain up to ~ 9,000' then easing back down to ~8000' by Tuesday PM. Loose Wet avalanches were prevalent during the storm throughout the mid elevations as the surface snow becoming saturated with water and internal bonds began to dissolve. Moderate to strong SW winds during the storm formed Wind Slabs in exposed locations throughout the mid and upper elevations, primarily above ~ 9000' on NW-NE-SE aspects with several avalanches observed throughout the forecast region. Mammoth Mountain Ski Patrol reported significant results from avalanche control work on Wednesday morning. Most of these avalanches were triggered in Wind Slabs with small hand charges and ski cutting. Westerly winds continued thru Wednesday and Thursday (4/19-4/20) with snow banners and localized drifting observed from Mammoth south to Rock Creek, forming a new round of Wind Slabs throughout the upper and mid elevations, primarily on N-E-S aspects. Since then, any Wind Slabs that formed have had several days to strengthen. Moderate SW winds in upper elevations Sunday (4/23) formed another round of isolated shallow Wind Slabs in the upper elevations on NW-NE-SE aspects where upwind fetches still had snow available for transport. Since then, there have been several days for the Wind Slabs to strengthen and heal, redirecting the avalanche threat toward typical spring Loose Wet avalanches.

Saturday - Weak disturbance moving into northern CA with scattered clouds and some snow and rain showers across eastern CA from Tahoe northward, gusty winds elesewhere. Saturday night, chilly conditions are again expected.
Sunday thru Monday - A split upper low moving south across northern CA. Moisture looks to be limited, but instability ahead of this low with cool temps aloft looks to be sufficient to produce showers with the possibility of a few afternoon/early evening thunderstorms. For Sunday night and Monday, baggy trough is expected to remain over eastern CA, keeping the threat of showers going into early Monday evening. Instability is weaker compared to Sunday, a few lightning strikes can`t fully be ruled out under the broad cold pool aloft. By later Monday night, the leading edge of the stronger storm system reaching the west coast could spread some precip into northeast CA. Overall precip amounts will be spotty and light, generally less than 0.10 inch. Locally higher amounts are possible near the Sierra where thunderstorms occur. Below average temperatures will continue Sunday and Monday. Snow levels will mainly range from 5500-7000 feet, although snow or graupel could briefly occur below these elevations with stronger showers.
Tuesday thru Friday – A cold low will drop into the region Tuesday, bringing strong winds, mountain snow and valley rains. Strong 100kt jet looks to push this system through fairly quickly Tuesday-Wednesday with good cold air (-10C at 700mb) support. There is a good chance that this storm will be bring snow to the Sierra. This upper low will be very cold with anomalously cold temperatures for this time of year. This will bring snow levels down to 5000 feet with light accumulations by Wednesday morning. Models continue to show potential for strong winds on Tuesday with wind gusts up to 50 mph in the valleys. Winds will peak out Tuesday afternoon before the cold front pushes through late in the day on Tuesday. Brisk north flow is expected on Wednesday behind the front, with high temperatures remaining below normal. Residual showers will remain on Wednesday as cold air aloft keeps the atmosphere unstable. Ridging starts to build back into the region by Thursday, with clearing skies and warming temperatures back to near normal for this time of year.

Gattis, Stassi ignite Astros in win over Braves
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Freddie Freeman recorded two hits and his former Atlanta teammate Evan Gattis enjoyed his return to ESPN's Wide World of Sports complex on Sunday, as the Astros used Max Stassi's two-run homer in the eighth inning to claim a 3-2 win over the Braves.
Stassi's two-run shot off Jose Ramirez proved decisive for the Astros as they claimed their first win of the Grapefruit League season. Ramirez notched a pair of strikeouts in a scoreless seventh inning, but he retired just two of five batters faced in the eighth.
Prepping to play for Canada in the World Baseball Classic, Freeman began his two-hit performance with a first-inning RBI single that scored Ender Inciarte, who had reached with a leadoff double off Astros starter Brady Rodgers. Matt Kemp concluded the first with a double-play groundout, and Rodgers finished his two-inning spring debut with a perfect second inning.
• Inspired by teammates, Rodgers 'taking notes'
"I felt really good warming up, just didn't carry it over to the first inning," Rodgers said. "I was a little tense. I wasn't happy with the first inning. But I did make some pitches, made a pitch to Kemp and got a couple plays to end the inning, and then second inning, I was more relaxed and felt like myself."
Braves starting pitcher Julio Teheran allowed one hit over two scoreless innings, and he took a step closer toward preparing himself to pitch for Colombia in the World Baseball Classic. Teheran narrowly avoided Norichika Aoki's line-drive single to begin the game and stranded two runners in the first inning.
• A.J. Hinch admires Aoki's 'meticulous nature'
"[Teheran] was pretty good," Braves manager Brian Snitker said. "He threw some pretty good breaking balls behind in the count and kept the ball down really well. He popped a few fastballs for his first time out. It was a good outing for Julio."
Playing in his final Grapefruit League game before traveling to Japan for the World Baseball Classic, Aoki walked against Aaron Blair to begin the third inning and scored on a game-tying single by Gattis, who was one of the Braves' most popular players before he was traded to the Astros before the 2015 season.
Astros: Outfielders George Springer and Josh Reddick and first baseman Yulieski Gurriel will make their Grapefruit League debuts when the Astros travel to Port St. Lucie to face the Mets at 12:10 p.m. CT on Monday. Joe Musgrove, one of the favorites for the fifth-starter spot, will start the game for Houston.
Braves: R.A. Dickey will test his knuckleball as he makes his first Grapefruit League start when Atlanta travels to Lakeland on Monday to play the Tigers at 1:05 p.m. ET. After getting a chance to rest on Sunday, shortstop Dansby Swanson is expected to be back in the Braves' lineup, which will face Jordan Zimmermann.

* A 3-month, zonally averaged offset angle
* Swath deviation angle observations can be used to infer thermal wind and stratification.
* Higher winds are obtained from pressure gradients and used as surface truth (rather than from GCM or buoy winds).
* VG (pressure gradients) rather than U10 could be used to initialize GCMs

Saw Hoke talking to Nuss quite frequently Saturday night. If u watch the game they are often standing right next to each other... I doubt hoke restricts him much. By the same token I think Nuss is still getting comfortable with what Devin does well. Saw more rollouts than any other game last Saturday.

About the cell phone reception thing.... I'm not a student but am fairly excited about better service in the big house. I've had friends in other parts of the stadium and we've wanted to meet up at halftime or directly after the game but been unable to get texts through.

|This really isn't that surprising....
I think it's pretty obvious that Devin's skill set matches up with MSU's 60 minutes of unnecessary roughness a lot better than Denards. He can stretch the field vertically more effectively than Denard could... So much respect for Denard but the intermediate/deep passing game was not his strength, it is Devin's.

|I hate it as much as anyone,
I hate it as much as anyone, but it was a phenomenal play... Especially if u include the context. We had just been handed a VERY questionable 4th down conversion and had all of the momentum. Clowney was completely unblocked for sure but for as small as Vince was in 4 years playing I did not see anyone come remotely close to splatting him the way that hit did and then most impressively Clowney had the wherewithal to recover the fumble with one hand... Like it was a baseball. While "technically" not the most impressive play, it was the ultimate "man beast" play.

|According to a current walk ons parent.....
Taylor did not practice the last few weeks of the season and was in a boot when not playing games... It started because I was criticizing his play in November and the OSU game. He also whiffed on Shazier on that 4th down play where Denard got blown up. Apparently he was basically playing on one leg... Talk about tough.

|I dont think that's a fair assumption...
Michigan has never had a player like Denard... And they may never again. I think it's fair to compare him to Michigan greats like you have... But Michigan has never had a player like him. I don't really think the NCAA has had a player like him. He is unique. He ran for over 1700 yards in 2010... people say he's not a QB, but he is. Saying he can't throw the ball is ridiculous. Not a dynamic passer but serviceable. He had a god awful game last saturday... fair enough. But I have never seen any individual player be as successful as he has with less talent then he has had the past 3 years. Howard, Woodsen and Wheatley all played on good to great teams... The past Michigan teams just do not have the same talent.... Just look at the NFL draft. Am I saying the other kids have less talent? Absolutely not. I think Charles Woodsen is far and away the best and most dominant player to play at Michigan. But saying someone has not watched a lot of football because they alledge Denard is one of a kind is unfair. Ive been going to games since I was 7 and have never seen anyone who can do what he does. He is truly unique and I dont think people will appreciate him until he is gone.

Jimmy Barnes' new memoir 'Working Class Boy' is available now via Harper Collins. Ahead of the special 'In Conversation with Jimmy Barnes' night on Tuesday, September 27th, as part of Live Lodge 2016, we present an exclusive extract from the book. Here is chapter 25: 'Woudn't Be Dead For Quids'.
The year 1973 was becoming a good one for me. I was learning about music and life. Every night had potential; it was all up to me to make it happen.
Mick and me would talk twenty or so guys into going to the Apollo Stadium, near the city, to see bands. None of us ever had any money.
"Hey, guys. I reckon if we kick the back door in the bastards could only catch one or two of us at the most."
Mick and I had worked it out.
"The rest of us just keep running into the hall and mingle with the crowd. It'll be easy."
"And if we don't like the bands we can leave. It'll cost us nothing."
"What'll we do if the fucking bouncers catch us?"
"Just act innocent. They've got too much to do. They'll let you go for sure," Mick told the boys. "Otherwise belt them and run. What are you, pussies?"
We did this night after night and much to our surprise it never got any harder. We couldn't work it out.
"Maybe they just don't give a fuck. Or maybe they'll be waiting one night and bash our heads in."
"Na. They don't give a shit,' Mick assured us all. 'Trust me.' We had trusted Mick many a night and it nearly got us killed.
I've got to say some of the best shows I ever saw were for free, after charging over a couple of useless security guys at the Apollo.
I remember one of the many nights that we took acid and ended up outside the stadium. We didn't even know who was playing. We didn't care. If it was bad, we would just walk out and go and start trouble somewhere else.
Bang! We kicked the door in and Mick shouted, 'Let's go.'
I slipped through the grips of an overweight body builder who was moonlighting as a bouncer and I was in. I made it into the middle of the crowd just as the show started. About the same time, coincidentally, as the drugs kicked in.
The room went dark and trumpets rang out. "Fanfare for the Common Man" washed across the crowd. I felt that I was waiting for the entrance of the Queen, not a rock band. Low bottom end from the PA droned out across the hall, so deep that you couldn't really hear it but felt it in your stomach. Dry ice-created fog came rolling over the amps and cascaded from the edge of the stage like a waterfall onto the audience.
'Wow," I whispered to myself, trying not to look too gobsmacked. "This is great, isn't it?" I said, nudging the stranger with the headband who was standing next to me.
"They haven't started yet, man."
I quickly got a hold of myself. "Better try and look a bit tough or these hippies will punch holes in my aura." As if.
I'd never heard anything like it before – or since really. It was Yes in their prime. I wasn't a Yes fan as such. Progressive rock took too much thinking for my liking. But as I stood surrounded by patchouli oil-smelling, sandal-wearing, kaftan-flowing hippies, I came to the conclusion that they were a fantastic band.
"Maybe it's the drugs," I said to myself. "Na, could be." I've got to say, I still like them but they have never sounded quite as good as they did that night. Yeah, it was the drugs.
Everyone else got bored and left to look for more excitement but I stayed with my eyes glued to the stage, taking in everything that was going on between the band.
My eyes were darting between the lights and the PA system. I was watching roadies running across stage making guitar changes. Subtle set changes between songs seemed seamless. This was the smoke and mirrors that you hear about in showbiz. Because my reality had been enhanced by the drugs or perhaps because the penny dropped for the first time, I saw the communication that was happening on the stage. I was mesmerised.
I think I had to hitchhike home but I didn't care; it was worth it. It seemed there was more to being in a band than just singing.
That year I saw Frank Zappa, T-Rex, Jethro Tull, Black Sabbath and Ike and Tina Turner at the Apollo. Every single show we saw for free.
Frank Zappa played songs that turned my ear to more adventurous music. Watching him play was like watching someone conduct an orchestra. Every move of his hands led every musician into another movement of the song. It was amazing.
Jethro Tull was a band that most of the young guys in Elizabeth liked, mainly because of their gross lyrics about snotters and girls. But we went anyway.
I stood watching what appeared to be cleaners in white overalls sweeping the stage. Only to find that one by one the overalls came off revealing that they were the band. Good trick.
Marc Bolan, who had made amazing music in the early seventies, was completely disillusioned by the time he came to Adelaide. British media had worn him down. It was clear you couldn't be openly gay and be allowed to make music without being driven into the ground. He had an empty, lost look in his eyes when he sang. The best thing he did all night was to bullwhip his guitar. He needed to lash out at something I guess. He died a few years later. I learned that the public and the press don't need to know everything about you or they might turn on you.
Ike and Tina were unbelievable. I fought my way down to the front to get a look at Tina and the girls.
"Excuse me. Coming through. Excuse me. Hey, I said get to fuck out of my way."
I made it to the front row. I remember being mesmerised by Tina and the Ike-ettes, as any young guy would have been. But while I was in the front row watching the girls I saw this guy in the back of the band driving them all like I'd never seen before. That was Ike Turner. As I watched him I realised how important it was to push a band, and push them really hard. He was a brutal taskmaster and I could see the band jumping at his every gesture. He made the band great. But this same tyrannical behaviour made him a violent partner for Tina. She survived Ike's violence to go on to much bigger things – when he was washed up and good for nothing, Tina was just getting started. I think he should have kept the iron fist for the running of the band.
I learned something from every band I saw. I was like a sponge, soaking in everything I could. This was to become my apprenticeship – not the railways but rock shows all over Adelaide.
We would go and see Fraternity, the Coloured Balls, Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs and anybody else who came through town. But Billy was the guy I liked the best. He was a rocker. No bullshit. Straight out rock-and-roll. I used to go and watch him at pubs I shouldn't have even been allowed into. Places like the Largs Pier Hotel, one of the wildest and roughest pubs in Australia. I started sneaking in there when I was only sixteen. I'm sure the bouncers knew I was underage but I didn't start trouble and they had their hands too full throwing people out to stop some young guy getting in.
There were no police threatening to take away their licences in those days; it was just jam as many people as you could into a small space and see what happened.
I saw Billy Thorpe in there one night with a whole wall of guitar amps. He was loud as hell but I thought he should have been even louder considering how many guitar amps he had up there. So I tried to speak to one of the roadies.
He was standing, trying to look important in front of a girl he was obviously aiming to impress.
"Hey mate, you busy?"
"What do you think? Do I look busy? Someone's got to run this show," he said, winking at the chick.
"There's a lot of amps up there. Is that normal?"
He looked a bit annoyed by now. I was obviously cramping his style.
"Fuck, yeah. It is for Billy. He's the man. The loudest guy in the country," he said to the girl. Almost as if I wasn't there.
"I didn't think they were all turned on."
Suddenly I had his attention. 'Listen, you little bastard, I've got fucking work to do. What do you want?'
The girl walked away.
"Sorry, I'm in a band too and Billy's a bit of a hero to me. I want to play as loud as him, that's all."
By this time he knew his chances with the girl were gone but for some reason he started to soften. "I'll let you into a little secret, son. Everything is not always as it seems. It's show business. Do you understand?"
"So I was right, wasn't I?"
"Look, I can't stand and talk to you all day. This is a show, that's all I'll tell you. Now fuck off and let me work."
"Thanks, mate. Maybe you can work for me one day."
I got a smile out of him.
I had worked it out. Billy had a bunch of amps he loved but the others were spares or even just dummies to make the show look bigger. This is something I've seen a million times since that night but Billy was the first. And I thought he was so smart to do that. He did it just to keep the punters guessing.
The Pier was happening. On a lot of nights, I was more entertained by the fights that broke out than the bands that were playing. There was one bouncer I remember very well. They called him the Beast, for obvious reasons; he looked like a refrigerator on legs. I would sit, off my head on whatever I could find, and watch as the Beast threw people through the plate glass windows, the glass smashing and spraying through the air like fireworks, while the music screamed in my ears and the hallucinogenics surged through my brain. It was like being an extra for A Clockwork Orange.
Every Friday and Saturday night I seemed to end up at the Pier watching the hardest and best bands that Australia had to offer at the time, playing so loud that my eardrums nearly burst. This was what I called fun, not hanging around the shops fighting and hoping to get laid.
This pub was full of tough blokes who looked like they worked on the wharfs during the day. Some of their girls looked just as tough. There were bearded blokes with tattoos, arm in arm with tattooed girls drinking beer. There were handsome young fellows holding beautiful girls with wide eyes and beaming smiles, jiving around the dance floor to the music. I got the feeling that if you looked at the wrong girl for too long you would end up floating next to one of the wharves their boyfriends worked at. You were safe as long as you showed respect for the locals.
They were a strange mix of people but everyone seemed to watch out for each other and I liked that. One of the people that I met in the front bar of the Pier was a guy called Dennis O'Toole, who I had met many years earlier at the party where we first met Reg's family. Tooley, as we call him, has been a friend ever since we reacquainted ourselves at the Pier. He was a gentle soul but could fight with the best of them if he had to and he ended up working as a roadie for Cold Chisel and Fraternity when I joined them.
That pub became my home ground and soon I became friends with many of the regulars. By the time I was sixteen and a half I even ended up on a first name basis with the Beast.
"Hey, Beast. What's it like in there tonight?"
"It's really packed. In you go, have a good night."
"Thanks, mate."
"Hey. Hey."
I thought for a minute I was getting stopped. "Yeah, what is it?"
"It's Bob."
"Pardon me?"
"It's Bob. Bob McKinnon. That's me name. Call me Bob."
"Er, right. Thanks mate, er Beast, er Bob. Thanks."
I felt even safer in the bar now. On many a night I ended up drinking until sun-up, on the jetty across the road from the pub with a bunch of mates and, if we were lucky, a few beautiful girls who were too pissed to go home or they'd get a hiding from their dads. We'd sit and look out to sea, thinking how lucky we were to be alive.
"Wouldn't be dead for quids," Tooley would say. "I wonder what the poor people are doing while we get to sit out here. Working probably, the poor suckers."
He be laughing out loud. He thought he was really funny. "We are the luckiest people alive. Look where we are. We got the water underneath us. A bunch of goods mates and the pier to look at in the distance. Oh yeah and of course you girls are with us too." Tooley seemed to care more about his mates than the girls but he was always a gentleman.
We'd sit there until the sun came up and then pile into a car and head for home. I'd be ready to sleep or keep partying with the girls but the others would head to the docks to work.
The Pier was my home away from home for many years after that. And even now, when I go back there I think about those days, when we were young and life was only about having something to drink and a pretty girl on your arm and a few mates ready to help you take on the world. And we did take it on, again and again. It became the place I learned about friendship and music. About love and loss. The Pier was our home. But the whole of Adelaide was our playground and we played hard.
One night we stood outside Memorial Drive in Adelaide. This venue was built for tennis but it became one of the great places to see a big band in Australia. I played there many times with Cold Chisel and as a solo performer and I always loved it. But this night we listened as Led Zeppelin played 'Rock and Roll' so loud that even outside the venue it was rocking. The crowd broke down the fence and thousands of punters who had no money got in for free. I remember being overjoyed at the chance to see them. Of the five thousand punters who crashed the fence I was the only one who got caught. I remember being dragged away to a paddy wagon as the sound of 'Dazed and Confused' drifted through the warm night air. They sounded good that night. And even it was from the back of a moving police car, I was happy to hear them.
Another night I stood outside and listened as the Rolling Stones played the same venue. I was wishing I could get in and see Mick and Keith do their thing. But it didn't really matter. I was happy to stand outside with the crowds or break in if I got the chance. As it happened, the Stones didn't sound so great that night. So I didn't feel too bad.
Our lives were like a Rolling Stones concert in a lot of ways. Some nights were great, some were bad. It depended on the night, the drugs and the company we kept. But it was all ours for the taking.
This is an extract from 'Working Class Boy' by Jimmy Barnes. Barnes will appear at bookshop events in September and October, including Live Lodge 2016 on Tuesday, September 27th. His live show, 'Working Class Boy: An Evening Of Stories And Songs', tours nationally in November and December. Details at jimmybarnes.com

Learning with the Labyrinth
Creating Reflective Space in Higher Education
|Publication Date
|May 2016
|Palgrave Teaching and Learning
This book discusses the theory and practice of labyrinth creation and use. From issues of design and cost, to how a labyrinth may be used as a university-wide resource and also be used for outreach to the wider community, it covers labyrinth use:
• Within disciplines, such as initiatives to deepen reflection and explore contemplative approaches to learning
• In wider university contexts, such as counselling; chaplaincy; learning and educational development; widening participation and student transition
• Across the whole university, and reaching out to the wider community of which the university is a part, from the labyrinth as a conference resource (as well as topic), to festival contributions.
Learning with the Labyrinth seeks to illustrate, inspire and share ideas that can be taken further by the reader.

LeadNetPro Leroy Lehr and Dan Miller Beware of LeadNetPro, Dan Miller and Leroy Lehr Woodbury, Minnesota

World headquarters of LeadNetPro and VoiceBlastSystem
You'll be shocked.
Click on the link and then click on the Street View.
Beware because these guys have a bad reputation.
Leroy Lehr has now landed with Dan Miller and as they say Birds of a Feather Flock Together. Both of these guys have a bad wrap.
Leroy is notorious for going from deal to deal. About every 6 months he leaves one company and takes his poison to another.
His track record for years characterizes a very arrogant, and unethical person who pretends to be a friend but is only interested in one thing. Himself.
He stays with a company long enough to steal there ideas and then takes them to another company. He always comes into a new company as if he is a friend and the answer to all of their problems. He often teaches people how to market on the internet by unethical and illegal systems These include How to steal email and phone records from websites and then illigaly spam and voice broadcast to them using a robo caller. Here is the Law. http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2009/08/robocalls.shtm
Within a few months he has stolen their ideas and the weak sheep of the flock (your downline) and moved on to ripoff another company. If you're in network marketing beware because he will attempt to steal everyone you refer him to. Most legitimate companies have terminated this guy. There are lots of posts on the internet warning people about Leroy Lehr. Do yourself a favor and google his name before you jump into bed with him.
The last couple of companies he was with were Lead Dog, PushButtonDialer and PhoneBroadcastClub. Now he is trying to raid their sales force. It makes you wonder, if his system is so good why doesn't he go out there and get his own customers. Why does he teach weak minded people how to steal sales people from other companies. One reason Leroy Lehr goes from company to company is because he drags his webinar-on-demand system with him everywhere he goes. His only purpose it seems is to sell his system to an existing sales force. It takes a few months before they figure out it doesn't work and that Leroy Lehr just wants those monthly subscription fees for a system he doesn't even use himself.
Dan Miller also has a wrap sheet regarding his past too. The internet shows him as the owner of the two companies.
Force One and 3 Hour Profits also owned by Dan Miller has an F rating with the BBB
BBB Rating for Force One Events, Inc.
Based on BBB files, Force One Events, Inc. has a BBB Rating of F on a scale from A+ to F.
Is it a matter of time before they rip you off too? It's probably best to just past these guys up.
I hope this helps save you time and money

Please Provide Justifiable Proof/Backup on Your Complaint Against LeadNetPro
AUTHOR: NetworkMarkerterPro - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, December 08, 2010POSTED: Wednesday, December 08, 2010
I was offered to join LeadNetPro recently also and I looked up Dan Miller and LeadNetPro and found a "ton" of Dan and/or Daniel Millers online. This company is just two months old. I only found your complaint attached to "this" Dan Miller and it seems like the four complaints here on RiipOffReport are one and the same (?). If this isn't true, would the others here rebut to my comments, please?
According to the latest Alexa traffic ranking (http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/www.leadnetpro.com):
LeadNetPro.com has a three-month "global" Alexa traffic rank of 31,208.
Approximately 80% of the site's visitors are in the US, where it has attained a traffic rank of 3,709. Compared with the overall internet population, the site appeals more to users who browse from home; its audience also tends to consist of men over the age of 35 who have attended college and have incomes between $30,000 and $100,000.
PLEASE NOTE: Your comment: "Why does he teach weak minded people how to steal sales people from other companies."
I can only "assume" that men over the age of 35 who have attended college and have incomes between $30K and $100K CAN (and "knowingly") make an educated decision as to buying ANY home-based business opportunity online.
Can you please explain, which "weak minded people" you are referring to AND where you get YOUR statics to make such a comment/complaint? Or advise as to how Alexa.com could be so wrong with theirs?
I haven't bought into this program, however after reading more about them and trying to educate myself, as a concerned consumer and make an "informed and educated" decision, I want to make sure that comments and/or complaints such as yours are also backed by justifiable facts and proof. Can you please provide that?
Thank you!

When Drum picks up a hitchhiker, trouble follows her into the car.
A monsoon is hammering Washington, D.C., when Chester Drum spots Anita Sparrow on the roadside in the middle of the night. Sixteen, frail, and soaking wet, she is trying to find help for her brother, Donny, a photographer with cerebral palsy who was beaten nearly to death a mile up the road. Drum takes Donny to the hospital and drives Anita home, where he finds her house ransacked, her brother's darkroom destroyed. It seems Donny took a picture of something he wasn't supposed to see, and powerful men will kill to ensure the negative is never developed.
On top of it all, Drum soon learns that the Sparrows have ties to some of the biggest names inside the Beltway, and Anita is not as innocent as she appears. Her family story simmers with pornography, corruption, and murder - not polite topics for dinner table conversation, but ones that make Chester Drum feel right at home.

Winning Start For Sunday XI
The short trip to Goosedale saw the Sunday XI get the Newark Alliance campaign off to a winning start.
On a blustery, sunny day, Notts & Arnold won the toss and batted first and never really got going thanks to a disciplined effort by all the bowlers. At one point N & A were 84-3, until chief destroyer Brinsley Kirkham got in on the act. Brins ripped out the middle order, narrowly failing to take a hat trick in the process as the hosts tumbled to 115 all out.
Despite the wicket being on the slow side and an enormous boundary on one side of the field, 115 shouldn't have proved to difficult to overcome. What followed was one angry man scoring most of the runs on his own! Some of you may remember Devon Malcolm being hit whilst batting & then ripping through the South Africans? Well, en route to the game, some yob decided to drive like something that rhymes with yob too close to Scotty's car which resulted in a collision showering our opening bat with glass from the wing mirror. Despite facial lacerations and having to stand in the field for hours (thanks to Calvo's derisory over rate), the fire was obviously still raging within as he strapped 'em on.Some 27 overs later it was all over! Scotty finished on 83 not out as the target was passed, the next highest score was Extras with 11!
So 4 points and a winning start to the Division 3 campaign on an eventful day at, & on the way too, Goosedale. As the game ended there was further controversy in the bar as the Man of the Match presentations were taking place. It was a close run thing as Scotty was announced MOM, but Brins felt aggrieved and stole the award from Scott. Pictured below is a grinning Brins with the 'stolen award' !!

Workplace harassment is unwelcome conduct from a boss, coworker, group of coworkers, vendor, or customer whose actions, communication, or behavior mocks, demeans, puts down, disparages, or ridicules an employee. Physical assaults, threats and intimidation are forms of harassment.

Harassment may also include offensive jokes, name calling, offensive nicknames, and offensive pictures or objects. Interfering with an employee's ability to do his or her work is also considered harassment.

Harassment can also be experienced by employees who are not the target of the harasser because of the workplace environment that can develop and they experience as a result of his or her actions.

In all or some parts of the United States, demeaning another individual regarding a protected classification is illegal and discriminatory. As a form of employment discrimination, harassment can violate Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, (ADEA), and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, (ADA).

These protected classifications, depending on your state, can include:

Age

Race

Religion

National Origin

Sex or Gender

Gender Identity

Sexual Orientation

Physical or Mental Disability

Color

Pregnancy

Genetic Information

According to the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, harassment becomes illegal when:

Putting up with the offensive and unwanted actions, communication, or behavior becomes a condition of continued employment, or

The behavior is severe and pervasive enough to create a work environment that any reasonable individual would find intimidating, hostile, or abusive.

Harassment against individuals is also prohibited in these specific situations.

"Retaliation for filing a discrimination charge,

"testifying, or participating in any way in an investigation, proceeding, or lawsuit under these laws; or

"Opposing employment practices that they reasonably believe discriminate against individuals, in violation of these laws."

Demeaning an employee for any aspect of their parental status, appearance, weight, habits, accent, or beliefs can be considered harassment and can add to a claim about a hostile work environment.

How Rampant Is Harassment?

There is no way to know just how rampant the various types of harassment are in the workplace. Undoubtedly, many go unreported to the employer or the EEOC. Others are adequately handled by the employer without government intervention.

Other claims go to attornies and they are able to settle the claim but even cases that go to attornies often file an EEOC claim, too. Thus, employers get hit twice by the same lawsuit.

According to the EEOC, in fiscal year 2014, 30% of the charges filed with the EEOC alleged the issue of harassment on various bases, such as race harassment or harassment on the basis of disability. Sexual harassment claims totaled 6,862 of which 17.5% were made by male employees.

Employers paid $93.9 million in 2014 to settle harassment claims and $35.0 million in damages for sexual harassment claims in 2014.

Preventing Workplace Harassment

In any case of workplace harassment, the employer's behavior must meet a certain standard in the eyes of the law. Just posting an anti-harassment policy, while a positive step, is insufficient to prove that an employer took workplace harassment seriously.

The employer needs to develop a harassment policy; train the workforce using examples that make inappropriate actions, behavior, and communication clearly defined; and enforce the policy.

If harassment is mentioned to a supervisor, observed by a supervisor, or done by a supervisor, the employer is particularly liable if an investigation was not conducted.

A clear harassment policy gives employees the appropriate steps to take when they believe they are experiencing harassment. The company must be able to prove that an appropriate investigation occurred and that perpetrators found guilty were suitably disciplined.

Employees do well to avoid harassment charges by living the platinum rule at work: treat others as they wish to be treated.

The Jimmy Graham decision is out. Burbank has ruled he's a tight end. The Saints have won
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) July 2, 2014
Before we get into the Fantasy discussion, understand what was taking place. If Graham was ruled as a wide receiver, like he wants to be listed, then the one-year tender the Saints would have had to pay him would have been over $12 million, which is the average annual salary of the top-five highest-paid wide receivers in the NFL:
- Calvin Johnson, Detroit — $16,207.143
- Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona — $16,142,857
- Percy Harvin, Seattle — $12,849,000
- Mike Wallace, Miami — $12,000,000
- Dwayne Bowe, Kansas City — $11,200,00
(Come on, Bowe. Time to refund some of that dough.)
Graham's argument was that he lined up in the slot or on the outside for 67-percent of his 2013 snaps. The problem is that he was drafted as a tight end and listed himself as a tight end on Twitter.
We didn't really hear Graham complaining about being listed as a tight end in 2011 and 2013, when he made the Pro Bowl as a tight end in both years, and likely cashed in on incentive bonuses. If he was just a wide receiver, where would his stats have landed him in this seasons?
- 2011: 99 rec, 1,310 rec yds, 11 TD catches
- Third in receptions in NFL, seventh in rec yds and fourth in TD catches = Definite Pro Bowler, even at WR
- 2013: 86 rec, 1,215 rec yds, 16 TD catches
- 13th in rec, 15th in rec yds, Led NFL in TD catches = Definite Pro Bowler at WR
OK, well, so much for that argument.
So just for fun, let's see where he would've landed among wide receivers last season, had he been listed there all year:
- Josh Gordon, CLE: 227 pts
- Demaryius Thomas, DEN: 227 pts
- Calvin Johnson, DET: 220 pts
- Jimmy Graham, NO: 217 pts
Had Graham gotten a WR-designation, he would've still likely been available to draft as a tight end, but just with dual position eligibility, like a 1B/OF in Fantasy Baseball.
It's doubtful he would've been used as a WR in most leagues, but if you were able to pair him with a slipping Vernon Davis or Jason Witten, then why not?
Ahhh, hypothetical Fantasy fever … Catch it!

Hi Jordu! I've been fallowing your audio blogs. I find them informative and very entertaining! You've touched on recognizing becoming a professional artist in blog #7. It seams being an artist in LA working in the industry ; the rate of growth and improvement as an artist is much faster and superior then being a solo artist working alone or with a small crew. Is their any advice you would give to those artists who struggle to improve/grow who do not work in an artist environment? Apologize in advance if this is a red intent question!

Hey Jordu, As requested on this recent blog, I'm putting my question right here. How do you access that creative part of your brain?, I feel confident with my sculpting ability overall...I just can't seem to "connect" with the weirder side of my imagination ;)

*Consumer Comment: More weird calls continued..
Today's call from "Craig" again -he got rude with me, lied when I asked to talk to supervisor and then hung up. I looked on internet to find another way to contact them as tried to call numbers on caller ID but stayed busy. Found 727-298-0288 and called there.
The first "customer service" guy I talked with got agitated with me for bothering him, and since he wouldn't let me explain to him anything I just hung up. I called back and asked for manager... talked with a "Michael". He kept asking how I could be sure it was there company, and didn't believe I had the numbers documented to prove anything, talking in condescending manner. I told him it was against law to continue calling after being told to put on "do not call list". He said he couldn't promise anything, but he'd "see what he could do. He was just as ugly.
GLAD I WASN'T interested.... don't know how they would have been if I was, but had a problem...

SUBMITTED: Monday, June 06, 2005POSTED: Monday, June 06, 2005
It appears 'New Credit Financial Alt.' is still calling people to solicit credit cards (aka LGS). I was called and offered a 'credit card' since I supposedly had been rejected credit in the last 6 months (to which I do not know what they are talking about). To my knowledge I have good credit (just got a loan within last 6 months no problem). I am on the 'do not call' GOV list.
I let the caller (who's name is maybe ALEX and the subsequent called Antwonne) I was on 'do not call list'. They acted like it does NOT matter. I got on associated website and reported the company calling as 'New Credit Financial'. When I told Alex I did not want any credit card he said he would get my credit file marked as 'denied' (which would sully my credit). So, after the last 1 hour of investigation I have called them back at 727-501-9888 and talked with a supervisor named Ken. I caught him in several lies. This company is not avail via 411 when calling 'St. Petersburg, FL'. Ken says to check the Better Business Bur but I don't think I need to since I caught him in several lies (i.e. first said that Alex had went home for the day then said Alex does not work there + other lies). At least I had some fun calling them and harrassing them.. I think they must change names for calling every day and it is hard for them to remember who they really are!
If I find out that they have messed with my credit in any shape or form I will be contacting some previous co-workers at the U.S. Secret Service to see if any investigation into 'Credit Card' fraud is on-going to maybe to get one started. I used to work at USSS for 5 years - what a great bunch of people I worked with there.. I'm sure they can point me in the right direction or next step should I decide to take it..
