Cold War
"There are two great peoples on the earth today who, starting from different points, seem to advance toward the same goal: these are the Russians and the Anglo-Americans. Both have grown larger in obscurity [relatively unnoticed by the rest of the world]; and while men's regards were occupied elsewhere, they have suddenly taken their place in the first rank of nations, and the world has learned of their birth and of their greatness almost at the same time." French traveler Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859) made this statement, quoted in his book Democracy in America, in the 1830s. Over a century later, the United States and the Union of Soviet Socialist...
History: The South, since 1886 voted for the Democratic Party. How did the Republican Party...
The Republicans' takeover of the South began because of racial reasons and continued because of cultural reasons.
Beginning at least in the 1950s (it is worth noting that the "Dixiecrats" ran in opposition to the regular Democratic Party in 1948) the South started to move away from the Democratic Party since the Democrats were becoming the party of civil rights. Much of the South was ardently segregationist. When the Democrats started to favor civil rights (this accelerated in the 1960s), the South moved towards the Republicans.
This trend became more pronounced in the 1960s as the continuing Civil Rights Movement, the Vietnam War, and the "counterculture" all worked to push Southerners away from the...
Missouri Compromise
Article abstract: A measure that attempts to pacify both Northern and Southern sectional interests by allowing slavery to exist in the southern part of the Louisiana Purchase territory.
Summary of Event
Between 1818 and 1819 both the territories of Missouri and Maine petitioned the U.S. Congress to be admitted as new states. The Missouri Territory had been created from the Louisiana Purchase (1803) and was promised constitutional protection. However, Congress could not decide if the right of property applied to the institution of slavery. Should it be allowed in Missouri and the rest of the Louisiana Purchase, or did Congress have the moral responsibility to rectify the issue of slavery that had...
History: What advantages did the North have over the South in the U.S. Civil War?
The primary advantage that the North had over the South was manufacturing capability. The North had already had an industrial revolution and had the ability to produce better weapons and more weapons. Obviously, this was a huge advantage for the North! The South was still dependent on slavery and this hindered their ability to industrialize.
Other advantages the North had over the South include a considerably larger population, naval power, and superior military leadership.

World War II: How did governments convince the perpetrators who were gulity of mass...
To some extent, the governments involved in the mass killings of World War II did not have to convince their people to participate in those killings. To the extent that they did have to convince them, it was done through the use of propaganda and, to some degree, fear.
Some of the perpetrators were motivated by long-standing hatreds that were not really caused by any governmental body. For example, there had been a long history of anti-Semitism in Germany (and elsewhere) before WWII. As another example, the ethnic Russians of the Soviet Union were strongly anti-Polish due to ethnic/nationalistic rivalries. Such people did not need much convincing to participate.
Government propaganda helped to push people towards...
Quiz: History
History: Why did the United States enter World War I?
Since the beginning of World War I in 1914, the United States, under President Woodrow Wilson, had maintained strict neutrality, other than providing material assistance to the Allies. Even in May 1915, when a German submarine sank the British ocean liner Lusitania, killing 128 U.S. citizens out of a total 1,200 dead, the United States, though in uproar, remained neutral.
In January 1917, Germany announced that it would lift all restrictions on submarine warfare starting on February 1. This declaration meant that German U-boat commanders were suddenly authorized to sink all ships that they believed to be providing aid of any sort to the Allies. Because the primary goal was to starve Britain into surrendering, the...
1920's Lifestyles and Social Trends
"The Roaring Twenties."
The 1920s have been dubbed everything from "The Roaring Twenties" and "The Era of Wonderful Nonsense" to "The Decade of the Dollar" and "The Period of the Psyche" to the "Dry Decade" and the age of "Alcohol and Al Capone." Many historians regard the years between World War I and the stock-market crash of 1929 as the culmination of a long process of social change, which Frederick Lewis Allen described as a "revolution in manners and morals."
The Wake of World War I.
The 1920s opened in the aftermath of World War I. The war's brutality and devastation in Europe culminated in euphoria at home over the armistice, followed by political...

1950's Lifestyles and Social Trends
Baby Boom.
The 1950s was a decade of unprecedented economic and population growth for the United States, The baby boom that had begun in the years immediately following World War II continued well into the decade. From 1948 to 1953 more children were born than in the previous thirty years, and in 1954 the country experienced the largest one-year population gain in history. Some experts worried about society's ability to handle the added burden of so many new Americans. But each new American was also a new consumer, and most people thought optimistically that the high birthrate would help to support the expanding economy.
Adding to the burgeoning...
World War II: Who were the perpetrators in the various occasions of mass killing in WWII?
There were many perpetrators of the various mass killings that happened during World War II. The most famous mass killings were what we now call the Holocaust, but there were others. Some of the perpetrators were military, some were paramilitary, and others were simply civilians.
Some of the mass killings were carried out by paramilitary units. For example, one non-Holocaust mass killing was the killing of Polish officers and others by the Soviet Union at Katyn Forest. This killing of over 20,000 military officers, police officers, and intelligentsia was carried out by members of the Soviet secret police, which could be seen as a paramilitary group.
Other mass killings were carried out by more formally military...
World War II
The Second World War was fought from 1939 to 1945. In those six years, more soldiers were killed than in any war that had ever been fought. More civilians died because of the war than ever before in history. In no other war did so many people lose their homes, their possessions, their whole way of life. The total number of deaths from World War II has been estimated at 50 million, which is about 1 out of every 5 people in the United States today.
History: Name three positive and negative impacts the American Industrial Revolution had on...
The Industrial Revolution was a long process of economic change in the United States, lasting well over a century. There are more advantages and disadvantages than are listed here, but let me choose a few of the more important ones in my opinion:
1) Improved peoples' daily lives - by diversifying the number and quality of the kinds of products factories could turn out, ordinary Americans learned better, lived better and had more time on their hands as conveniences and efficiencies defined the Industrial Revolution
2) Transportation and technology - the expansion of business and factories expanded our transportation network out of necessity and brought us canals, highways and...

History: What did the Opium Wars between China and Britain indicate regarding China's...
In order to answer this, you need to think about what the Opium Wars were about and what their result was. These were wars that were fought because the British wanted to sell opium to the Chinese while the Chinese government wanted to prevent them from doing so. The British overwhelmingly defeated the Chinese. This gave them the right to sell opium in China. It also gave them the right to get various concessions from the Chinese, allowing the British, for example, to try their own citizens in their own courts rather than making them subject to Chinese law.
So, we have a case in which the British were able to force China to grant them major concessions, including the right to sell narcotics in China. This clearly tells...
Emerging in England in the mid- to late eighteenth century, and reflecting a similar trend in continental literature at the time, literary sentimentalism or "sensibility" prioritized feeling. It developed primarily as a middle-class phenomenon, reflecting the emphasis on compassion or feeling as a desirable character trait in the newly emergent middle class. Although, on the one hand, the reader might take pleasure in feeling itself, in England by the 1770s the rise of sensibility was also linked to a growing activismhe awareness of and concern for the suffering of others reflected in, for example, the antislavery movement, concerns about child labor, and the campaigns for better hospitals, prison...
History: In what ways was Reconstruction a failure?In what ways was Reconstruction a failure?
Reconstruction was the period from 1865 - 1877 where the government of the United States tried to put the country together again after the Civil War. In general, historians consider it an unsuccessful effort for several reasons.
Politically, the government did convince southern states to rejoin the Union in a fairly simple process. They also managed to pass the 13th, 14th and 15th amendment. Past that, not much went well.
The Freedmen's Bureau was underfunded and cut short, leaving the vast majority of free slaves uneducated and still in the South. There was no land reform, meaning slaves were forced into a sharecropping system and did not own their own farms, which might have made them more independent, equal...
Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life, Death, and Hope in a Mumbai Undercity by Katherine Boo
Behind the Beautiful Forevers opens dramatically as Abdul Hussein, a teenaged garbage sorter, hides from police who are trying to connect him and his father to the suicide of his neighbor Fatima. Abdul crouches on a pile of trash in a room next to his home, hoping that the police will not bother to search the room when they come.
Abdul and his family live in a slum, Annawadi, located on the outskirts of the sprawling Mumbai Airport. Despite the airport's cutting-edge terminals and a proliferation of luxury hotels nearby, this slum has grown up on airport property as waves of migrants from rural India have come to the city seeking to increase their fortune. The Husseins have done better than most of their neighbors....
History: What national and international events precipitated the Marcus Garvey's movement...
Both Marcus Garvey's UNIA and the KKK were nationalist organization in the United States. They were both helped to prominence in the 1920s by some of the same factors.
In the international arena, one of the major causes of their rise was World War I. Another was the rise of radical ideas such as socialism and anarchism in Europe. Both of these influenced events in the United States which, in turn, influenced the rise of these organizations.
World War I influenced the rise of these groups largely through the fact that it caused the movement of many African Americans to the North. It also helped expose some African Americans to influences from outside the country. This led African Americans to form more of a...

This is the story of how we found our dog. More than that, it is the story of how "Nick" found us.
"Nick" was 17 months when we adopted him from the Corgi breeder in Pacifica, California. That was July 4th weekend, 1998.
After my eldest daughter recommended we get a Corgi, I searched on line to learn about a breed I knew nothing about. Other than "Queen Elizabeth's Corgis," I had never seen one in person or known anyone who had owned one. Kelly, said they are great family dogs, very loyal, great mountain dogs and herders. What did I need a herding dog for?
So I looked on line and read about this curious breed and gentle dog with the face and body of a small German Shepard and itty bitty legs. There are two kinds of Corgis, mainly: The Welsh Pembroke Corgi without a tail (lopped at birth) and the Cardigan Welsh Corgis with long fox like tails that drag on the ground.
Of the tail-less types, I loved the "Tri-color" mix the best. This coloring is black, white and auburn, whereas the others are all or mostly auburn. I was completely fascinated by the breed and read about a Corgi breeder show coming to our county in May of 1998. I was propelled to attend and see the breed first hand to determine if this was the dog for us. This was to be our first dog since we each left our birth homes and as a married couple.
I attended the show alone and observed the qualities of the breed. Also important to me, was to observe the breeders and to see what kind of people they were; how they treated their dogs and presented them to everyone around and not just the judges. A perfect dog or show dog was not what I wanted. I wanted to find a Corgi that would be the right fit for our household, already inhabited by 3 very territorial, alpha cats. Good luck, right?!
I spoke to many breeders, learning more and soon came to realize that very few Corgis were for sale. One breeder introduced me to another, believing she might have one for sale that wasn't of "Show Quality." I couldn't imagine what that meant and I had no intention of ever "showing" my dog in this world of perfectly bred dogs with impeccable lines and markings. Not my deal. Our family just wanted a dog to love and to become a part of our family.
I met Lorna and soon learned that she had two for sale, a male and a female. Her male was a Tri-color and house trained already. The female, a "ginger" and not what I was looking for, but the male had possibilities. She would let us come to her home to meet "Nick" in about two weeks.
My husband, Billy and I drove down the coast with anticipation and excitement, much like our first date. We couldn't wait to see Lorna's Corgis and just knew that one would be the right fit for us. Never in our wildest imaginations did we know just how perfect a fit this dog would become.
After being lead to her back yard, where all 8 of her Corgis were hanging out, we quickly realized there were 16 eyes all fixed on us and checking us out for what was to come. Two of the dogs were in a small enclosed area, one smaller and auburn and the other one, a Tri-color! The latter was wagging his tail-less behind and son-of-a-gun, had the broadest smile on his face I have ever seen. He was the one! We asked to see him, let him smell us, pet his beautiful double fur coat and let him get to know us.
He bolted from his pen and came right up to us, with a knowingness that was both relieving and mystifying. He languished at our feet and snuggled, sniffed and licked our hands, as if he had known us his entire seventen month life. We clicked.
After signing the papers, receiving advice on his eating preferences and sealing the deal, we stood to leave. Lorna gave her "Nick" some last hugs and verbal reassurances and he just simply ran past her and beyond us directly to our waiting car, complete with new kennel and soft bedding, for his ride back to the north bay and to his new home.
It all happened so fast and so easily we couldn't stop smiling. It was like Christmas morning and the anticipation of a long awaited gift. "Nick" was it. He was our dog now and became a member of our family in an instant.
The life he would lead would be between two homes. One by the Bay and one in the mountains. He took to his new lifestyle like a duck to water.
Nick had a new family and didn't flinch at the site of our 3 adult cats that were filled with pure attitude. He got it. They were here first. No problem. He would manage. And he did. Soon after, there was another addition to the family and the one which became Nick's ultimate pal for the next eight plus years...a month old black and white Lop Earred Rabbit, whom our youngest daughter named, "Kisses." "Kick Ass" would have been more appropriate, but "Kisses" it was. He and "Nick" were a sight to behold and hung out together like they were joined at the hip. "Fric and Frac." "Nick and "Kisses."
Our smiling Corgi, "Nick," short for "Nick at Night," is nearly twelve years old now. He has lived a very full Corgi life as their life expectancy is on average eight to ten years. That is so hard to believe, for such a lively active breed and for a dog that could hardly sit still for so many years.
Our "Nicky" is so old now, by Corgi standards. It is unbearable to see how little he moves anymore. The rapid onset of his knees, hips and back end giving out underneath his girth, grips my heart and shreds my hope that he will ever be the same. He is in his decline and it came on so fast.
As "Nick" was the largest of his litter, with such a big body for his short little legs, we feared how this may impair him with age. It was only a matter of time. With only the front half of his body working now, he collapses under his own weight with every step he takes, with such deliberate care and a look of sadness in his big golden brown eyes. He knows he is not the same. He can no longer go for his daily walks with mom and dad and sniff every square inch of both neighborhoods that he had come to call his own.
His beautiful thick soft fur is still shinning in the sun light where he lays on the deck most days. He slumbers willingly, hardly moving any longer. He weakly accepts our love and praise, the long strokes of hands through his fur, the scratches he once jumped in place for and the anticipation of playful hours around the yard, running so effortlessly; his fierce love for life and activity.
He just waits now. We cannot bear to say it outloud, but we just wait with him. There is nothing more we can do for our sweet doggy but simply love him as much as we can. We prepare the special food, keep his weight down for his joints and muscles, manage his meds twice a day and keep him comfortable.
This is the time we all dread and try to deny will ever happen to our beloved pets. This is awful and as depressing for our "Nick" as it is for our family. Yet we know this day will come for all our precious animals that came into our lives with unmatched trust and love. The pure affection, the unquestionable loyalty; the incredible sweetness of being.
Our three cats have all passed, one by one over the last four years and our sweet bunny died two years ago, almost to the day. They all lived long full lives and collectively and individually, brought us so much joy.
"Nick" is still with us, but a shadow of the high energy puppy he once was. These twelve years have gone by like a bolt of lightening, full of flashes of happy memories, companionship and the special love of a wonderful dog.
Time to go sit with "Nick" in the gentle breeze outside, the quiet of the mountains to embrace our senses, to pet his glistening fur once more and to utter sweet words of love and gratitude for choosing us to be his family.
We were the lucky ones.
Know that what you do, you do with love.
We'll will do the right thing when her time comes as we have with others, which is what we're all urging for Lucy. Please, don't let beloved pets suffer because you can't bear to lose them. I know that's your goal too, it's just so hard. I feel for you guys, really.
One of my favorite things is to sit with LJ sometimes and remember the greatness in all the beloved dogs who have let us live with them.
Be well dear friend.
Hold your boy and just love him. xoxo
Someone named Carlotta Monterey O'Neill said that; and ain't it true? My heart goes out to you, your sweet Nick and your family. My "olden Golden" just turned 12 in November, so I'm already actively dreading the day that we'll have to say our farewells to our lovely girl. In the meantime, I savor every day and hour with her, as I'm sure you do with Nick.
Having been there all too recently and all too soon, I know how hard it is to watch a beloved animal suffer--you have all my empathy and compassion in facing the possibility of having to say farewell to Nick, Cathy. I know my sister's Corgi, Maddy of blessed memory had the same problem of her back end ceasing to work at the end of her life. My sister grieved for her for a long time. Give Nick some gentle pats from me, and tell him again, what a good dog he is.
(Whew, I was so worried you were flouncing, after reading the title!)
I know, it broke my heart, but I had warning. People can laugh if they like, but I believe creatures were put on earth for our growth and love too, so why shouldn't they be included in after life? If that's bubble-pretend- world-thinking, then just call me "Bubbles"! Hang in there!
Thank you all so very much for your sweet comments of concern and support. Not going far from Nick today, this was a real comfort and very appreciated. xoxo
As a dog lover I feel your pain. It's the worst part of having any pet.
Focus on all you have had with him.
Sounds like he has been a good match for your family.
My heart aches for you and your family.
we lost our tooty (petunia) this past november. she had not come through dental surgery well and she had other issues that all came to the fore simultaneously. she rallied and then she didn't. we were lucky as she died here one night at my feet. I couldn't stand to put her down, but I would have had she had told me to. they do tell you when they can't go on.
your boy seems peaceful. I hope he continues to sleep and wake and eat and live what's left of his life with love and perhaps he will pass in his sleep. or he will tell you when he can't bear it any longer. that's a tough one, but it will be the right thing to do. because we love them so much, when we finally do make that choice on their behalf, it is the right time because we usually wait until we're sure they're in pain or frightened.
my oliver had cancer and for two days he was ill, but the last day he gave up. and I knew it was time.
you will know. trust me. you'll hate it. but you'll know it's the kind loving thing to do.
until then, enjoy him and love him, as I know you're doing. don't feel guilt. don't anticipate death. just be in the moment with him.
my heart to you sweetie. to you all.
Foolish Monkey - Your words really resonate with where I am at right now and I thank you so much.
Mary - Yours, too, as you know our Nicky and what a viable, healthy, happy dog he's been. I don't know if he'll make it to the reunion or not.
I'm sorry you are losing your animal friend. It is wonderful that we can do them the kindness of easing their way out of this life by giving them a painless, quick death. (Many humans wish they could have the same, but it's still difficult to obtain.) It's never easy but often the most loving thing we can ever do.
All I can say is make sure he's comfortable and knows he's loved and let him go easily when the time comes. Lord, I'm actually tearing up from the memories while I type this.
We loved our Corgi so much that we bought a second one (another Cardigan) nearly 5 years ago. He is a wonderful dog. As long as you don't mind the shedding!
BTW - Cathy, the two in the avatar are sable on red, kind of unusual. You usually get sable on fawn.
Just know that I take all your kind wishes into this day with me, as Nick and I leave the mountains and return to the Bay for 9 days. We'll see how he does at sea level for a while before returning to Tahoe for a long Fourth of July weekend.
As "Ellen" says on a daily basis, "Right back atcha!" xoxo
You were obviously a match made in heaven. Your descriptions of how you got Nick are so beautifully fashioned from your beautiful heart. Darn, Cathy, it's morning and my mascara is running already. Great job and worthy EP! Love, Joan
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and feelings about Jake.
As you already know, writing about difficult transitions like this one, as well as sharing your beloved Jake's story with others, is an act of healing. Those who lose a beloved pet often don't get the support they need, since society hasn't fully embraced the importance of the human-animal bond. It takes people like you to let others know that it's okay, and psychologically healthy, to openly grieve for their animal friends. Your story will also help folks in the same situation, those already grieving, or the rest who know the day will come someday.
You've helped me too. My family chose the "good death" for my old cat-man Nomad three years ago. He was a few months short of his eighteenth birthday--a long, good kitty life, for sure, but I wish he could have stayed a while longer. But we owed him the gift of peace and freedom from cancer. Keeping him longer would have been selfish and cruel. He had always been there for us, with that supernatural animal power all good pets share--the one that lightens the load of the always-weary human animal. With our pets we can be ourselves, fully and without apology. They are teachers that ground us with the lesson that we are never separate from nature, no matter how many cities we build or roads we pave.
Now our old man Rascal, a twelve-year-old Pomeranian, is having some age-related health problems, so it won't be long before we must let go of another good friend. You're right; there will never be a good time to say goodbye. But our friends deserve the best care from us, even if it's release from this world. They always gave their best to us, without hesitation. May we all be strong, and never hesitate, when their time comes. They would do the same for us, if they could.
Take care and treasure your last days with Jake. I know he'll live forever in your heart. *HUGS*

text: Catholics and Stem cell research & therapy. What are stem cells and stem cell lines? Stem cells are special cells which are capable of changing into different types of cells and multiplying to form or replace tissues. For example, stem cells in our bone marrow can become more specialized and multiply to supply our body with the different types of blood cells it needs. Stem cells have now been found in nearly every tissue in the body. Some stem cells can be manipulated and grown in the laboratory. These 'stem cell lines' continue grow and multiply to provide stem cells for research or cell-based therapies. Is the Catholic Church opposed to all stem cell research? No. The Church welcomes efforts to help the sick and injured. Research with stem cells has already resulted in many new and exciting medical treatments. Stem cells in bone marrow transplants have been used to save lives for many years. Nearly every week there is a report of some other new therapeutic use for stem cells. There are new treatments to help people with Parkinson's disease, spinal cord injuries, blood diseases, heart attacks… the list keeps growing! What stem cell research is the Catholic Church opposed to? Some research involves stem cells which have been taken from human embryos. Although stem cells can be taken from adults, children, even babies, without causing them any harm, when stem cells are taken from a human embryo, the embryo is killed. Modern science tells us that a human life begins at fertilization, with the union of a human egg and human sperm, to form a new and unique living human being (scientists can now also produce human embryos by cloning). Faith and reason tell us that every human life should be treated with reverence and respect. It is because the deliberate killing a human embryo is always wrong, that the Church opposes research and therapy which involves embryonic stem cells. Even if…research or therapies using embryonic stem cells could be used to save lives, we should never deliberately kill a human person in order to help someone else. At any rate, there are still no approved treatments which use embryonic stem cells. Thousands of lives, however, have already been saved using adult stem cells. Embryonic stem cells may in fact be too unstable for research and treatment, and they are more likely to form tumours. When embryonic stem cells are used in a patient they are also rejected as foreign tissue by the patient's immune system. Even if…the embryos used for research or therapies will only remain in frozen storage, or thawed and left to die, we should continue to treat them with the respect which is due to every human person. We should not 'use' and exploit them for research. In the end we will all 'die anyway', but that gives no one the right to use or kill us. Human dignity deserves better. Where can I find more information?

With dog's help, clues to orcas' decline found in whale scat
Using a dog trained to track the scent of orca scat, researchers at the University of Washington are finding that hormone levels in scat samples indicate the animals aren't getting enough to eat.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Researchers trying to learn whether orcas are starving have turned — with the help of a dog — to a new source of information: orca scat.
Tucker, a black Lab trained in tracking animal scat, has been deployed two of the past three summers to track down orca scat between the San Juan Islands and Vancouver Island in Haro Strait, sniffing his quarry from the bow of a research boat for a University of Washington research team.
When Tucker finds what researchers are looking for, he gets to play with his ball. So he is a highly motivated tracker — and in the summers of 2006 and 2008, he helped track down some of 130 samples of scat from orca whales in Puget Sound's J, K and L pods.
Sam Wasser, director of the UW's Center for Conservation Biology, led the research team, which analyzed hormone levels in the scat. What they found surprised them. The orca mortality rate was the highest when thyroid hormone levels were lowest, indicating the animals may be nutritionally deprived.
The southern resident population of orcas that frequents Puget Sound is endangered. The seven orcas missing and presumed dead this year bring the population to just 83 animals, the fewest since 2003, and down from a recent high of 97 in 1996. The number of deaths has alarmed researchers, who haven't seen as steep a drop in nearly a decade.
The hormone study has not yet been published or peer-reviewed, and researchers want to get more data. But they think their preliminary findings may be an important clue to the orcas' decline.
"I'm pretty confident that what we are seeing is nutritional deficit," said Katherine Ayres, a UW graduate student working on the study. "It is interesting and sad. We have a link to what scientists have been saying for a long time."
Another regional icon, Puget Sound chinook salmon, were listed as a threatened species nearly 10 years ago. Both species are plagued by a range of ills, and no one solution will help bring them back. Addressing the food web that orcas depend on will involve not only rebuilding salmon populations, but also the species that salmon depend on, such as herring.
The orcas also need to be able to find their food, which could require restrictions on vessel traffic, so underwater noise doesn't interfere with their echolocation, a kind of sonar orcas rely on.
Orcas are wide-ranging, too, so salmon runs need to be robust not only here in Washington but in Canada's Fraser River, where many of the salmon runs that orcas feed on in the summer originate.
They also travel as far south as California in the winter, and may depend on salmon returning to the Sacramento and Columbia rivers, too.
"We really have to take a broader look," said Fred Fellerman, a consultant for Friends of the Earth, an environmental group. "We can't just say save the whales, we have to save the chinook, and the food for the chinook. Otherwise we are really fooling ourselves that we can save the Sound."

Appel stands to net millions after gamble

07:05 AM ET 06.06 | Leave it to a Stanford student to make a sound financial decision. [Mark Appel] gambled on himself by passing on a chance to sign with the Pittsburgh Pirates after they picked him No. 8 overall a year ago, and it appears Appel is about to win big. Appel could well be the first overall choice of the Houston Astros in Thursday's MLB first-year (amateur) player draft. But even if he isn't chosen No. 1, he will almost surely [obliterate] the approximately $3.8 million he turned down from the Pirates last year. "It worked out for him," one rival agent said, saying Appel will very likely also easily beat the $6-million figure some suggested the Astros might have been willing to spend on him last year.

More money but he may be drafted by the Cubbies and get stuck with those perennial losers.

Bank of America Complaint - Overdraft charges
Review by
Comments (41)
Beware of shady practices I figured this out the hard way. When you charge ATM card lets say on the 2nd of the month and it goes through on the 5th and at the same time if you have any overdrawn or NSF charges coming in that day they will get posted before your ATM transaction on the second. So lets say you bought some thing for 10 dollars on the second and you had the money that day but by the fifth you only had 25 dollars and you had a Overdraft fee coming in instead of them first pulling out the 10 dollars they will pull out the 35 and then the transaction so what happens is that your account will go negative and you will get charged another 35. Even worse they don't post the fees until the next business day which is 12 am next day so without them even warning you; so if thought you had 15 dollars and went and bought a cup of coffee for 3 dollars that coffee will cost you 38. I have been charged 13 35 dollar fees in the past year and I admit I am not the most responsible person in the world but this guys will take advantage of that and steal your hard earned money.

It should not matter when the bank takes the money out of your account whether it is right away or 5 days later. Once you slide your card through the money is no longer in your account. You played and lost. How is that the banks fault?
Posted by Sepani on 2009-08-08:
the money was in my account I just forgot about a online charge that had no funds for so instead of them paying my transaction they paid their fees first is that so hard to understand. If they paid my transaction first which was made 3 days ago i wouldn't get charged another 35. So once again I did have money in there to cover my charges but not the fees but their fees come first.
Posted by jktshff1 on 2009-08-08:
You are not serious are you? Your last paragraph is your best explanation. Over the past year, your irresponsibility has cost you over $350.00. You need to get a handle on it.
Posted by yoke on 2009-08-08:
They do not charge fee's UNLESS you do not have the money in the account. You admit you did not have the funds to cover all the transactions so therefore the bank did nothing wrong. I understand what you are saying in that you feel the one that was made 3 days ago should have gone first, but you should not spend more than you have.
Posted by Sepani on 2009-08-08:
i am bored and i will reply jktshff1 the one of the reasons i got charged 13 35 dollars was because i had over 200 in my account and i had a lot of different charges on my ATM card without putting my pin so its a credit transaction and it doesn't get posted right away all of this charges didn't even add up to 80 dollars by the way. Once again i forgot about a 295 dollar charge from online. So what they did as a "courtesy" was to pay that 295 which i did not have in my account and let everything else go overdrawn so instead of rejecting one item and posting 1 35 dollar charge I got 7 of them. I want to know if you don't have 295 dollars in your account can you go to the teller in the branch and pull that money out. I know this is not the same subject but you brought up the 13 charges.
Posted by madconsumer on 2009-08-08:
the reason you were charged 13 35$ fees, was you overdrawn your account 13 times.
if you had 200$ in the account, spent 80$ more, and forgot the 295$ charge you made, yep that equals nsf fees.
Posted by yoke on 2009-08-08:
mad, so true. If you have $200 in your account you can not spend $375 and not expect to get fee's.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-08-08:
These complaints about overdraft charges are soooo tiresome! Get yourself a $5.00 calculator and keep an accurate register. Be responsible!!!!
Posted by Eloise on 2009-08-08:
'If they paid my transaction first which was made 3 days ago i wouldn't get charged another 35'
The merchant didn't post the transaction until the next day. That's not Bank of America's fault. You are the one who has to remember what you spent. You are the one who needs to keep a transaction record. You need to accept responsibilty for your money. That isn't Bank of America's job. The bank doesn't act as a parent, 'No dear you can't buy another candy bar. You don't have enough money.' If you are old enough to have a checking account. then you are old enough to be held accountable for your banking decisions. In other words this is 100% your fault!
Posted by PepperElf on 2009-08-08:
slomo - exactly.
and no, it doesnt matter how long they hold the transaction
it will STILL OVERDRAFT IF YOU KEEP SPENDING MONEY YOU DON'T HAVE
oy. i swear people just can't get it through their heads
Posted by Suusan B. on 2009-08-08:
It doesn't matter if your slide your card for an ATM purchase or a credit purchase - - the fact you slid you card means that you are authorizing the charge no matter if it posts today or next week. It is your responsibility to make sure you have sufficient funds to cover all debits your authorize and if you don't then BofA (or any bank for that matter) will charge you NSF fees. And there is not a bank employee who is going to sit and analyze your account and say "gee, let's put the smallest transaction through first and the largest last so that so-and-so isn't charged too many overdaft fees". You admit you "forgot" about a $295 charge and only had $200 in your account and continued to authorize $80 worth of debits. This is BofA's fault because . . . .? Not.
Posted by laklisa on 2009-08-08:
Sepani is just mad because we're not taking his side.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-08-08:
If you kept a check register, and wrote everything down, there wouldn't be any of this "I forgot about this charge or I didn't know about this charge" or whatever. You need to keep a register and not just rely on what online banking tells you. That way, there will be no surprises.
Posted by PepperElf on 2009-08-08:
How does holding a transaction force you into overdraft?
It doesn't.
Unless you forget to do the math and account for that transaction when you calculate how much you have left to spend.
Posted by NickL11354 on 2009-08-08:
seriously when will people learn to LIVE WITHIN THEIR MEANS. Think before you swipe your card or when you buy that $6.00 starbucks latte.
Do not use your debit card if you don't have a modicum of self control. Hint treat a debit card like a check meaning that you can use pen & paper to deduct immediately what you spend
Posted by Suusan B. on 2009-08-08:
Sepani: I understand your point loud and clear but you are not accepting responsibility for maintaining an adequate account balance. No matter what spin you want to put on this, you are indeed spending money you don't have if you are overdrafting your account. Using your example that you have $40 in your account and you forgot about a pending $70 charge, no matter how you look at it you overdrafted your account. The overdraft charge may not appear until the following day but it would not have appeared at all unless you overdrafted your account. I strongly suspect that you are relying on on-line banking to manage your account - - get a paper check register. Finally - - no - - I don't work for Bank of America or any other bank.

ya totally disgusting comment :(
Im really getting sick of people complaining about overdraft fees. You know your going to get it if you overspend, and know the system doesnt always post things right away (for several reasons), why is this always a big shock?? Repeat offenders do not recieve my sympathy.
Posted by bcd on 2009-08-08:
RE: "the money was in my account I just forgot about a online charge that had no funds for" is a contradictory statement. Just because you forgot about the online charge does not mean the money was still in the account.
If you overdraft an account, of course they're going to take the penalty fee out before honoring additional charges.
There's nothing shady about BofA here. Boo Hoo. Buy a calculator. Poor review.
Posted by Sepani on 2009-08-10:
I will have the last word first and foremost I am not racist I have a Philippa wife. Second the mass media has brainwashed you to think that anybody mentions the word Jew is racist. Now for all you who still don't understand what I am saying If your fee comes on Friday you wont know until Monday 12 am so in the mean time u wont know there is 30 dollars in the account that's is not yours. If you go out and spend that 30 u will get charged if they don't want to practice shady buisness they should pull that fee out the same day so YOU KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY IS IN YOUR ACCOUNT instead of hiding the fees for the next businesses day. that's all I was saying and you guys are saying that I should not spend more than I have.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-08-10:
sepani, before you blow a gasket and cause some damage, let it go. you won't win against the small handful here that can say one thing and one thing only: "don't spend more then what you have." some of us get what you're saying and the some don't.
my question is why would anyone in their right mind do biz with boa in the first place? those yokels couldn't care less about the customer, they're too busy figuring out how they're going to pay off their next lawsuit.

RE: "...for all you who still don't understand what I am saying..."
We do understand what you are saying. You are still missing the main point--->Keep an accurate record of your account and don't rely on the online or telephone support services to be up to date.
Not all transactions are posted immediately. Some transactions may not post until a few days after the merchant settles their daily batch. This isn't just BofA, it's global wide so learn to flow with the system and not against it.
Posted by jktshff1 on 2009-08-10:
kj, good answer, but it is still the responsibility of people to know what they have to spend, read the fine print and understand their individual banks practices. If all did that there would be no problems.
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-08-10:
bcd, it is entirely possible to overdraft based on pending transactions that are not, and will NEVER clear..some businesses secure funds over and above the transactions that were actually made.
In essence, being charged for monies that have not, nor never will, leave your account to cause an overdraft.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-08-10:
well KJ, there is your anti BoA camp, and then there are over half the households in the United States that do business in some fashion with them. For the people that actually don't spend more than their balance, they offer a really wonderful lineup of banking services, that frankly, are unmatched anyplace else.
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-08-10:
Ken, that's not fair at all. Many households do reluctant business with BoA because of the giant sucking noise they make when they absorb OTHER businesses. All Countrywide's customers are now BoA customers. Doubt they're all happy with it.
And don't forget, BoA was voted #1 in WORST customer service satisfaction last year.

'all the Jews should stop sucking peoples money dry'
What about this comment don't I get. Moderators felt it was a disgusting thing to say and removed it.
Posted by Anonymous on 2009-08-10:
Boki, Mark Twain said it best when he said 'there are lies, there are damned lies, and then there are statistics". For every poll you read that rates them badly, they could show you ten that say they are great. Do I believe them? Nope, but then again I don't believe your poll either. Love them or hate them, an awful lot of people use them.
I don't defend them, but I do try to be objective. It reminds me of the old commercial with the chick with fat lips who said "don't hate me because I'm beautiful". Don't hate them because they're successful, just choose not to use them. If enough people did that, the problem would resolve itself.
Posted by BokiBean on 2009-08-10:
Agreed, but that's what we're here for.. If BoA is a great business, then tout it, but if they're riddled with terrible customer service and high fees..don't.
There's a lot of blaming the customers for BoA's bad behavior.
And I agree about the statistics..but I'd rather apply it to the "half the households" stat than my own. ;)

But Bokes, you have to admit that there is also a boatload of blaming BoA for customer's bad behavior.
I recently read a study on customer satisfaction with the interesting result that WAMU rated highest, and Chase rated lowest. WAMU went out of business, and Chase absorbed them. How do you suppose they will rate now?

oo good point
because what makes the customer happy might not actually be good for a business to survive.
like i said.. people won't be happy unless the banks let them overspend money they don't have, without penalty
and then the banks would fold

Ugh at Chase/Wamu. Just ugh.
Customers overdraft..and the more we use those cards, the more people are going to. If dinging people actually taught them a lesson, it might make sense. But just to line the bank's pockets puts me off...
And maybe we just see it differently. I don't think we'd have near the level of complaints that we get here if the overdrafts were reasonable..but to the tune of several hundred dollars for one instance, then knocking them again for having the account stay in the red for several days, people are going to cry foul.

A good article about bank bailout money if you are interested.
Posted by PepperElf on 2009-08-11:
we're all brainwashed now for knowing that keeping a handwritten ledger - and paying attention to what's in the account - will prevent overdraft?
dang i better tell mom to stop using her ledger then.
i mean sure it's prevented her from going Overdraft and she always knows exactly what's in the account
but hey you said we're brainwashed so we must be
*rolls eyes*

I've had constant problems with BofA.
I call and complain and they return part of what they purloin.
I filed a complaint with the better business bureau and The Office of the Comptroller of Currency. below are their web sites where you file a complaint electronically. I also found this organization and filed a complaint with my congressman.
everyone here should do the same.

I've never had a problem with Bank of America. I plan to stick with them, despite the pleas from those who suggest I do otherwise - based on their personal situations.

1mRob Gronkowski is on the active list and will make his season debut for the Patriots today against the Jets.
1mIt's currently 57 degrees, according to Weather.com, and the day's high is supposed to hit 62. But it feels colder. The 12 mile per hour wind has some bite to it.
1mComments (2)With Vince Wilfork and Jerod Mayo out for the season, their captaincy roles are replaced by Devin McCourty and Rob Ninkovich
1mIntroducing rookies into an NFL system can be a challenge, as the Patriots can attest. But bringing in veterans, especially after the season has already started, isn't necessarily that much easier.
1mAqib Talib appears in Patriots practice for the first time this week. Danny Amendola and Tommy Kelley were not present.
1mComments (5)Yes, the Patriots have lost Vince Wilfork and Jerod Mayo for the year, and Aqib Talib for who knows how long. But Tom Brady says every team has injuries; what matters is how you deal with them.
1mWith Jerod Mayo going on injured reserve Wednesday, New England's linebacker corps has a lot of slack to pick up.
