OTTUMWA, IOWA -- The Ottumwa Fire Department received a grant check that will help continue fire prevention efforts in Ottumwa.
FM Global, an insurance company out of St. Louis, receives requests from organizations and departments across the country who have fire prevention programs. A board reviews each of the requests and one was granted to the OFD.
"We have a fire protection grant program where we work with different communities to help them raise funding for small projects," said Brian Eagleton, of FM Global. "So we're very happy to support the city of Ottumwa, the fire department and their grant program here."
The $2,000 check was presented at the Main Fire Station Tuesday to Deputy Fire Chief Cory Benge and the money was used to purchase a new outfit for Sparky, the department's mascot for fire safety and prevention.
This is the first time that FM Global has partnered with the Ottumwa Fire Department for a grant.

Yeah, we know sitting on our rear ends all day while we toil away at work can mean terrible things for our, well, rear ends. In fact, a recent study from CareerBuilder.com finds two out of five workers have put on pounds since starting their current gigs, with more than one fourth gaining a minimum of 10 pounds and 14 percent adding upwards of 20 pounds to the scale, BusinessNewsDaily reports.
And, it turns out, what you do for a living can make weight gain more likely. The 10 jobs in which you're likeliest to gain weight, according to the survey, are travel agent, lawyer/judge, social worker, teacher, artist/designer/architect, administrative assistant, physician, protective service worker (think police, firefighters), marketing/public relations professional and information technology pro professional.
Why those occupations? The biggie: sitting parked at a desk most hours of the day, the survey finds. Also to blame, according to BusinessNewsDaily, are stress eating, being so busy that you skip meals, celebrating in the office, feeling pressured to eat food your coworkers bring to work and that age-old fiend: the office candy jar.
Guess next time you start a job, you should negotiate a personal trainer with that benefits package. Or, at the least, steer clear of Brenda from accounting. Her homemade goodies will get you every time.

Naish Mana 10 ft. Soft Top review
Friday, July 30th, 2010I recently purchased a Naish Mana 10′ soft top from the good folks down at Tumalo Creek Kayak and Canoe and I couldn't be happier with the board.
First you'll notice is the bright yellow color which contrasts sharply against the black foam rubber nose and tail caps and painted waves which run down the sides of the board. The rails are completely wrapped with a cool looking prismatic skin fabric to prevent your paddle from dinging up the sides of the board, an issue which plagued early soft top designs. The skin of the board has held up very well so far to all of the abuse I have thrown at the board. The deck itself is a squishy foam material like a dense yoga mat and is very comfortable to stand and kneel on, even awkward falls onto the board are not painfull. The bottom of the board is a slick and very durable plastic, a plus to those of us prone to offering up our boards as sacrifice to the volcano goddess Pele from time to time. I have parked the board on lava rocks several times and there is barely a scratch in the hull material. Though the bottom skin will dent from sharp pressure, the dents seem to puff back out after the board has been in the sun a while. Lastly the fins are a super durable somewhat flexible molded urethane with nylon retaining screws which tighten down with either a quarter or the provided multitool from the top through a special puka which goes all the way through the board, a bomber setup. This brings us to my only real complaint about the fit and finish of the board which is that the center fin would not tighten down all the way without shortening the front screw. Because I paddle often in whitewater I wanted to add a grabloop which I made from a short piece of nylon webbing with a hole burned into each end. Used as a washer, it allowed the retaining screw to tighten up the fin without having to resort to cutting down the screw.
What about performance? The Mana 10′ is fairly wide at a full 32″ and thick enough to support 200+ pound paddlers. I find it extremely stable and easy for novices to stand up on thier first time on the water without fear of falling off. While the board is thick in the center, the rails are definitely designed for the surf as opposed to the chunky rail shapes found on some other soft tops and inflatable boards. The 10′ Mana glides decently for its length, thought it is certainly not the fastest due to an abundance of tail rocker. The long progressive tail rocker makes the board turn easily up and down the wave for a board of this width, but also makes the Mana slow in the pocket and not the easiest board to paddle into the waves. The extra tail rocker really shines in the river where it allows the board to surface predictably when it is swamped with water and allows the rider to trim the board on short steep river waves so that the nose doesn't get caught under the oncoming rush of current. For me, the Mana has opened up several river waves which were simply too fast and tricky on other boards. Paddling downstream, the Mana punches through small hydraulics with ease and rides up and over big waves with confidence, it catches eddies without getting sucked under on the eddylines and ferries across tricky current with complete predictability. I guess that a person could always wish for even more volume and width for charging big whitewater, but the Mana is very stable and definitely a higher performance board than some of the big logs on the market.
In short, I find the Naish 10′ Mana to be a great beginners board with high quality materials and bombproof construction. It is the type of board that anybody can have fun paddling and which will serve you well for years whether you interest is paddling lakes, rivers or smaller surf. The Mana 10′ doesn't do any one thing brilliantly, rather it blends all around performance and carefree fun into a good looking design which is one of the most versatile and durable boards available today.

Thank you for considering adopting a rescue puppy! Latest News The Cupertino Gunman & Choco the Hero Dog A PPR exclusive 1st person account of the events on Oct. 6th, 2011. I used to always joke that my little aussie/chow mutt, Choco, was a super bratty dog who has fear aggression with other dogs, sheds tumbleweeds everyday, has bitten me twice, is aloof with people, and the only reason we keep her around is because she's cute with her wiggly chow pom pom tail. Well, I'll still make those jokes but she gets one more qualifier added to her description - she's my forever hero. On October 6th, I was grabbing a printout from my printer at home around 7:30am in the morning when Choco barked from her normal lookout perch in the bay window of my living room. Usually, I'd just ignore her or tell her to shush and not wake the baby but curiosity over came me since the day before we had the SWAT team combing our neighborhood for the gunman from the Cupertino quarry shootings and carjacking shooting across the street. As I peered out the window expecting a cat or squirrel to be the object of her intent, I spotted the gunman crouched hiding between my 2 cars on the driveway. Luckily 2 sheriff deputy cars were also coming down the street at the very same moment so I jumped up and down, pointed like I was on the tarmac, and did my best to flag them down in hopes they would see him. I frantically ran to the bedroom to wake my husband and as I was looking for my other dog, the loud shots rang out. My husband, baby, 2 dogs and I huddled in our bathroom and a few minutes later the cops escorted us out. Shereef Allman lay dead on our driveway, 20-30 bullets riddled our cars, garage door, and walls. He had been hiding in our neighborhood the entire night and somehow managed to elude the police patrols, helicopters, door to door swat team, and mulitple search dogs. But he didn't elude Choco! Our guess is that he was waiting for people to leave for work in the morning in hopes of getting a car so he could escape the area. I may easily have been that target as I was probably 10 minutes from leaving the house for work if not for Choco's instinctive bark. I know we can't quantify the comfort of having a dog, from loyally greetings when we get home, to the sense of security they bring to ease our minds. While I'm saddened by the loss of life that happened that fateful day, I know there were many other outcomes which could have been much worse for me and others if not for my litte hero rescue dog. Hug your furry ones for me and don't get too annoyed when they bark at the mailman or your friends coming to the door. They're just doing their jobs and you never know when one day, like me, you'll be so grateful they did. -Charlin, PPR Board Member UPDATE: Sugar has a new home! Thank you to everyone who donated to her cause!

Every 73 seconds someone hears the dreadful words: "You have cancer." If you can, imagine the shock, horror and sadness that accompany that diagnosis. Will I die? Will I be cured? Hope is what they cling to in order to survive. Relay For Life of Carlton County-Cloquet, provides that hope to cancer survivors, their families and friends. The Cloquet event is scheduled for July 20 at Veterans Park.
Relay For Life began in 1985 with Dr. Gordy Klatt walking the track in Tacoma, Wash. He raised $27,000 by having friends donate $25 to walk with him. In 1986, 19 teams started the first of thousands of Relay for Life events.
Relay For Life is more than just a fundraiser. It's a life-changing experience. At Relay, every person in the community has a chance to celebrate, remember, and fight back. Every person who participates joins others around the globe as part of this worldwide movement to end cancer.
Everyone's reason to participate is as unique as their own personal story. At Relay, you can find healing, comfort and support from others who have faced cancer or who have lost a loved one to the disease. You have a chance to meet people in the community who are equally as passionate about finding an end to cancer in our lifetime. You can thank all the people who have done so much to support you through your personal cancer experience. Plus you can gather together with friends, family and colleagues to laugh, cry and create lasting memories.
No matter why you take part in Relay, however, one thing is clear: with every step you take, you are helping the American Cancer Society save lives. With your help, we aren't just fighting one type of cancer – we're fighting for every birthday threatened by every cancer in every community. Each person who shares the Relay experience can take pride in knowing that they are working to create a world where this disease will no longer threaten the lives of our loved ones or claim another year of anyone's life.
Relay For Life of Carlton County-Cloquet has raised over $500,000 which benefits cancer survivors with programs such as Hope Lodge, free housing at Mayo Clinic, and University of Minnesota for outpatient services; Look Good Feel Better, which provides make up and skin care tips as well as wigs to cancer patients; Reach to Recovery, which links breast cancer survivors to those newly diagnosed; Road to Recovery, which provides free transportation to cancer treatments; and the Navigator Program housed at the Cancer Center at Essentia Health in Duluth.
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life represents the hope that those lost to cancer will never be forgotten, that those who face cancer will be supported, and that one day cancer will be eliminated.
If you would like to participate in the Relay For Life or volunteer in other ways, contact Jean Cyronek at firstname.lastname@example.com or 218-245-2048.

My friend gave me an easy pattern from memory and told me to cast on 39 sts, knit the first row, and K1, P1, K1 every other row. When she finally found her pattern, the second row said to P1, K1, P1. Does it matter whether you use a knit stitch or a purl st to begin and end that second row? Since the first row begins and ends with a knit stitch, it would seem okay to me to begin and end that second row with a knit stitch. But maybe it looks better to begin and end with a purl st. Does it matter? I've heard somewhere that you should slip the first or last stitch (or maybe it was both sts) when knitting a scarf to get an attractive edge. Is that true? | |||
As long as you were consistent it should not matter. You can slip the last stitch for a neat edge All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. | ||||

The Urchins and Bulldogs are set for this week's Northeast Mississippi Coaches Association for Better Baseball championships after taking part in regional action last Thursday and Friday at East Union. Both teams opened with losses on Thursday, as New Albany fell 8-3 to Baldwyn, and East Union could not hold on to its early lead, falling 15-3 to Mantachie. The Bearcats took an early 2-0 lead on New Albany, which was answered in the bottom of the first, as Jake McDonald plated one run off of his triple, and he later scored on a sacrifice fly out by Grant Hogue.
Area softball all-stars met at Tupelo High last Thursday, capping their high school careers in the annual Northeast Mississippi Softball Coaches Association game. New Albany's Amber Mirfield contributed with two hits for the West squad in its 10-4 win over the East in the fast pitch game.
It was the last high school outing for Aspriona Gilbert, and she made the most of it, breaking six records in the Northeast Mississippi Basketball Coaches Association All-Star game last Saturday in Fulton.
Itawamba Community College will be the host site of the 2012 Robertson's Sportswear Northeast Mississippi Basketball Coaches Association (NEMBCA) All-Star Weekend as the area's top basketball players will converge on the Davis Event Center Friday, June 1 and Saturday, June 2.
Nine area athletes completed the 2012 baseball season earning All-State honors, voted on by the state coaches and announced last week.
Tim Henderson has had a lot of influence in his pursuit with coaching. From playing for his father, Danny, at East Union to working as an assistant at Shannon, the former Urchin standout is prepared to make his return to Union County as the new boys' coach at West Union.
The division champions out of Region 2-1A claimed several top honors as voted by the division coaches and announced last week. West Union's Hannah McQuary, along with Brittany Taylor and Bailey Bogue, were named the Player of the Year, Pitcher of the Year and Offensive Co-Player of the Year. Union County athletes claimed all of the top honors, as Myrtle's Keely Chunn was named the Defensive Player of the Year, and Ingomar's Kate Webb was the honored with Bogue as the Co-Offensive Player of the Year.
The scene at Ingomar's gym on Sunday afternoon was much like what fans have come to expect over the last 41 years. A good crowd, heated gym and Norris Ashley, off to the side, wiping away sweat with his towel.
East Union capped its athletic banquet festivities by honoring two members of the Class of 2012 as the recipients of the Urchin Award.
The Lady Hawks were tired of finishing second this season and responded by winning its fourth state title in five years.

While I was at school today, my sister found a centipede in my bed. Not a tiny wriggling thing. More like big enough to paralyze a cat. She released it outside near where I found one almost the same size the other day. They'd make a great breeding pair. :3
On a similar but mundane note, I found a caterpillar in my salad today and an earwig scuttling around our plates and cups and things.

Why Shop here
Businesses rely on data every day and how this data is stored is of critical importance. Data has to be accessible at all times, but it also needs to be fast enough to keep up with the speed of modern business. Today, Thecus is proud to launch its latest 2U rackmount NAS device the N8800PRO.

I will arrive tomorrow at Prag airport about 11.30 and need to go by train or bus to Vysokov.
What is the best way?
Best regards
Peter Odelfors
WE were there in 2009 and stayed at the Grand Hotel. Just a short walk across the street into the city centre we discovered a great little pizza place with patio seating. We are trying to remember the name as my cousin and his wife will be traveling there soon and will also be staying at the Grand.
Also we are recommending to them Mamut for the pour-yourself-beer concept...unknown in the US !
We are planning to drive from Hallstatt to Cesky Krumlov (2 nights) to Vienna (4 nights) (stopping at Melk Abbey) then on to Prague (3 nights).
Does this seem reasonable way/time to do these places?
Thank you.

Which train station would be most convenient for us in both Budapest and Prague? Also, the price seems to vary from 18Euro to 100 Euro?! We would greatly appreciate your recommendations. Thank you!
Off to prague for Christmas. I understand that on 24th we are best booking as many restaurants are closed. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Secondly - will we need to book restaurants for other nights before we go or can we just pick restaurants once there?
Hi, everyone!
I am planning to visit Prague, Budapest and Vienna on Aug-Sept, spending around 15 days.
I don t know how to start. I d like to finish my trip with the best place, so maybe it should be Budapest, Vienna and Prague?Which one needs to spend more time? Does it worth include another city/country nearby?
Any suggestion about the best period or events occurring between aug and sept?
I'm staying at a nice hotel near the Charles Bridge. All is fine except that they're charging 20 EUR per day for parking.
Two questions:
1. Can anyone recommend parking elsewhere for less or for free?
2. If parking a car on the street here, is it generally safe or are tourist's cars known to get broken into? (it's a Toyota station wagon)

'iChime'--another way to drive neighbors nuts
The doorbell may be the next ring tone. Already we've seen a way to customize the otherwise boring chime with your own MP3s, and now there's more elaborate hardware coming out to match this ill-advised home accessory.
The "iChime " is a unit that can be programmed to play either a choice of about 50 pre-loaded songs and sounds or your own tunes, tranferred from an iPod or computer. (Just a wild guess, but you'll probably want the latter.)
Gizmodiva says all it takes is "an easy two-wire replacement," though we're skeptical given … Read more

Dell has really outdone itself. On Tuesday, the company begins shipping a machine that the CRN Test Center can only describe as 2010 Server of the Year squared.
"Capacities of the unit officially known as the PowerEdge C6145 greatly surpass last year's leading PowerEdge, and just one of the C6145's two server nodes nearly doubled the Geekbench score of the reigning champ, the Dell R810."
The C6145 is actually two 4-socket servers in one 2U chassis, each with 32 DIMM slots for a total DDR3 memory capacity of 1TB and 96 total processor cores. It's aimed squarely at HPC applications, virtualization, VDI and EDA workloads, and with a peak Geekbench 2.1.11 score of 22,607, we'd say it's well qualified. For our tests, we configured each node as a stand-alone server running 64-bit Windows Server 2008 R2.
Each server was populated with four AMD 6132HE 12-core processors, and each with its own 128 GB of memory. However, Windows addressed only a maximum of 32 GB. The peak results were observed when running the 64-bit version of Geekbench on node 2. Node 1's high water mark was 21,257.

Self Proclaimed "dumbass" Bribes Cops Over Loaded Hand Gun, Cash And Weed
When being pulled over by police, the last thing you should do, is bribe them. While in some instances, it may work, in others, it may pile on more charges that you initially found yourself dealing with. This "dumbass" from Wisconsin, unfortunately, learned this lesson the hard way.
"I am a dumbass white boy from Wisconsin."
That's the best Christopher Parker, 24, could offer Chicago cops Wednesday morning after he was pulled over during a traffic stop and officers found a handgun, a stack of cash, and a load of marijuana in his SUV.
Parker, pictured in the mug shot at right, allegedly offered police $100,000 if they would let him go, according to a police report. "I know that's more than your salary," he said, adding, "Take the car, take the money. I don't care. Just let me walk, bro. Please let me go."
Along with describing himself as a "dumbass," the Eau Claire resident noted that, "I watch 'Gangland,' and I came to the South Side of Chicago to act like a big baller. I borrowed a gun from a friend for protection, and I was scared to be driving down here. I'm on vacation with my family and I have the gun because my girlfriend is scared, too."
["Gangland" is a History Channel series that focuses on criminal organizations across the United States.]
Along with gun and drug counts, Parker was charged with trying to bribe a cop. He is being held in the Cook County jail in lieu of $90,000 bail.

Number Of Steps In Checkout Process
Posted 09 August 2007 - 04:09 AM
I see more and more websites getting checkout forms into three or four pages with having one 'checkout subject' (ie payment info, personal info, ...) at a time. People do not have to scroll down anymore (which is the case with the single page), but have to click more and more to additional pages.
At MarketingExperiments I found a case study showing that the conversion rate increased big time when the process was brought back to three steps instead of nine. However, I do feel that this case study is not representative for the case of three/four pages or only one.
Has anyone tested the difference between three/four pages or one? And are there any research papers known about this?
Posted 09 August 2007 - 04:16 AM
EG imagine you hit page one and are taken to more questions, then you complete that and get YET MORE questions! HOW MUCH MORE? is the thought that is now in your head OK there might only be another page, OR there might be 10 more pages including colour of eyes, fav car, fav singer, all time most lush food (Sarcasm).
But I am sure you get my drift. If there ARE 9 pages, then they will be 2 or three field pages, and having all 9 indicated above, together with the stage the user is at will make it a better experience and would have a far lower drop off rate.
I would prefer one single page personally though as it makes commitment better and the user can see what is likely to be asked of them. The downside is if there is a lot of form filling to be done, when splitting it up makes the task appear easier.
Posted 09 August 2007 - 04:51 AM
You think your buying and item for X and you then fill in your details, click next, then give your card details, click next, then asked to confirm you want the item, click next , then on the BUY NOW page, it shows additional amount for Tax/VAT or Shipping and VAT on the shipping and a handling charge...etc..
A purchase page IMO should be 2 clicks, 1 page where you fill in everything and it alreadys has a total payment figure, you click next and then you should get a summary page with a confirm button, that's it, when i hit confirm , I should get a thanks / invoice summary page.
No making you go through loads of pages to make you forget how much an item was at the beginning and thinking you'll just say "I can't be bothered to click back, back and possibly have to fill the form in all over again, I'll just click buy now" - me , I close the browser and never go there again!
my 2 cent

The real answer is you need to Test it for your own site and your own specific situation.
I'll give you a good real world example from just yesterday.
I went to a site I found via Google in search of some software. The company offered several different software packages that did different things with the specific types of files (Flash) I was working with. I found a section of their site where I could bundle together a few of their software products that I wanted, and the bundle actually saved me 25 bucks. So I would be paying $160 instead of $185. Great!
I start through their purchasing process (which sent me to an off-site merchant provider I might add) and started entering my info. It wasn't the greatest thing because once it ask me for name, address, email address etc and when I submitted it added a new field asking me to verify my email address. The same thing happened again on a later page when they asked for billing info. I had to re-enter all of my name and address details, then my credit card stuff. When I submitted that page it threw me back to the same page with an additional field requiring the CVV security code. Why they had it set up this way is beyond me when they could have asked for what they needed right away. But, on well, I bravely marched on because I really wanted the software.
Then, after I had entered all of this information, some of it multiple times, I get to the end of the process and they had Required fields asking me how I found their site and for what purpose I was buying their software. Not just a question or two. But the same 2 or 3 questions for each piece of software I'd chosen for my bundle.
Now I'm a forgiving person because I understand how difficult this stuff can be. But that one was the straw that broke the camels back. I wouldn't have minded if they'd asked and let me choose to skip providing them with this type of demographic information or better yet if they'd asked me for this type of demographic information after the sale was processed, but them Requiring to make a simple purchase it turned me off in a big way, especially after the other stuff. It didn't meet my personal Customer Expectations, forgiving as they normally are.
So I abandoned everything right there. They lost a $165 sale because their purchasing process was too cumbersome. Who knows, I might have abaondoned at the last step, since I can't think of anything else they might want to ask me. But regardless, I abandoned their cart, then shook my head in amazement and went directly to one of their competitors who was offering similar software. The competitors software didn't appear to do quite as much and cost a bit more, but I bought from them.
This company will never know why I left and why they lost the sale. If they don't look into it and test their purchasing process they'll never figure out why they're losing sales because they're not meeting at least one potential customer's expecations.

If you use Google Analytics you also have access to Google Website Optimizer where you can do split-path testing of your checkout. A good idea is to peek under the hood of your analytics to determine if there are any kinks in your conversion funnel.

The primary factor is (assuming that ease-of-use, time-2-completion and other functionality issues are smooth either way) meeting customer expectations. These expectations can be created by promises made by you, assumptions made by them, or a variety of other ways.
One of the advantages of multi-page process is being able to track where customers leave the buying process and potentially identifying areas for improvement. Another is the ability to collect some customer information (they may 'register' but not complete the purchase) that can be leveraged for other purposes (perhaps abandoned cart recovery) or simplifying the process at a later date.
I would like to see shopping cart products have an in-built testing mechanism for checkout processes.
Posted 02 April 2008 - 01:03 AM
In some cases I will drop an email and let a company know that they lost a sale due to this reason or that.
Working in this field, we know what Randy said is correct, most of the time you will never know what happened.
That's why I will occasionally drop someone an email. I might do it when I come across a page that is not working, or an image that is missing (like Scottie's avatar - she's losing so much weight in her contest that even her image has disappeared from the site).
Whenever someone points something out that is not working properly, it is much appreciated. I am happy to do the same for others.
I expect everything to be functioning properly and showing up as intended and want to know if it is not, and I expect others feel the same way.
There's a big difference though between something not showing up and something being poorly planned. Too many people get the wrong idea when we say your site needs content, and they go overboard. The checkout process is not the place for that content.
Be up front with your prices, ask for personal information after they have committed to the sale, not before, and make sure any pages you require personal information on are secure!
Once a customer is making a purchase, you have the sale, make sure the process is as simple and pain free as possible.
Posted 02 April 2008 - 10:27 AM
I'd caution not to get too single-minded on those info collection checkout pages. I've had some pretty good success when weaving in very short benefit statements or some imagery that confirms that their info will be safe. However I'd also caution against going overboard with this. Do keep it straight forward, and if you have a mulitple step checkout give them some sort of indication of what step they're on (Step 1 of 3) or even a visual queue of a progress bar.
Keep anything else short and sweet. But it doesn't hurt to add some reinforcement when they have to whip out their credit card. Whether that's a reiteration of benefits, a quick sentence about your guarantee, a We respect your privacy or whatever is needed. This is especially important when you do conversion testing on your sales funnel/checkout process. As usual, the trick is hitting on just the right mix to overcome potential objections.
Funny/odd story for you.
On this one new site I opened a few months ago the shopping cart (as most do) create an actual Customer Account that they can log back into later to review orders, check shipping status, etc. When I was setting up that site I wanted to test this standard sort of checkout process against a COWOA, or CheckOut WithOut Account process. Since I was using Zen cart it was easy to set up, they have a module that's been contributed to do it. And it's something I can toggle back and forth for conversion testing.
The results are that some people just don't want the account. Given a choice about 35% will purchase without an account, even though they're warned that they're missing out on some free stuff those with accounts get. Not just the availability of checking order status, but something more tangible that account holders get to use for free, whereas those without accounts would have to purchase separately.
Don't ask me what this is supposed to tell us. Because the information collected is exactly the same. I still need all of the info to process sales. The only single field that's missing from a COWOA order is a Password field, since I use the email address as the account login.
I haven't a clue what the data is trying to tell me. I did however find it interesting that such a large percentage chose to forego an account, even though it was completely free and gave them a couple of very real benefits.
Posted 03 April 2008 - 01:57 AM
This is a big issue and most likely a large part of the reason 35% of visitors in Randy's example...
We have a hard time trusting strangers to keep our personal information private. We have all had personal information sold to a marketing company at one time or another. It can be a real pain in the butt for quite some time and next to impossible to get yourself removed from all the lists you end up on.
Something indicating your pages are secure can be a big help. It is hard to believe but plenty of web site owners/developers still ask for personal information on pages that are not secure.
Your return policy needs to be clearly stated as well. These issues should be addressed on their own pages so people can see them whether they make a purchase or not, and can be reiterated in the checkout process when a purchase goes through.
Posted 03 April 2008 - 10:58 AM
I think Catz is exactly right. We, myself included, are rightly suspicious of the motivations behind account creation, been burned too many times by unsolicited and undesired 'activity' from forced account creation in the past. Personally, I don't see the need to even ask the question. Create the account, give them the info needed to track their purchase, claim their benefit, opt-in for future communications from you to modify their account settings, or whatever ... on the confirmation page. If they don't opt in, track their purchase or take advantage of your special benefits, they're happy and never really face the question and related concerns of whether an 'account' was created. If they take advantage, they're happy, and appreciate the creation of the account.
My current cart has absolutely no capabilities in this area and I've lost out on the opportunity to 'serve' my customers with the benefits of an account for 4 years .. I'm looking forward to a more sophisticated system.
Interestingly, many of the newer carts (and I presume new mods for existing carts) default to an expandable one page checkout (ajax) ... i.e. Steps 1, 2, 3 etc are all on one page, and expand or collapse as you proceed through the fields. Most still use too many steps, and I'm not yet sure whether they are a comfortable interface for less web literate customers (a fair percentage of my customer base), or how backwards browser compatible they are, but they're pretty nifty in theory. I'm opting for a 2 page checkout similar to 1dmf's description, with a '3rd' clearly defined step being the confirmation page where I hope to offer expanded customer benefits. All reliant on advancing my php skills, but I'm getting there.

I'd say all of my ex girlfriends, save one, are more sane than me. If I was the most sanest person in the whole wide world, wouldn't that mean that all my ex's are less sane than I? Did you consider the insult you project on others when you call yourself the "most sane I know"? Is it not a sign of insanity to argue that your sanity is of the highest order? Have you seen American psycho? Quite the bag of tricks our psycho had at his disposal. Simply mimicking others seems to be a sign of insecurity and wanted to be accepted. Why do you(the most sane you know) want to be accepted by people who can't even match your god given sanity? That's insanity right there.
I personally think that I'm neither sane nor insane, but prone to moments of both. I think a healthy sense of right and wrong is a million times more important than any consideration of sanity.

Samsung's LED monitors deliver a visually stunning picture quality that leaves you speechless. Just as you've seen in Samsung LED TV's, our LED monitors make colors more rich and the action more real than you've dreamt possible. Let the story come to life with vivid colors and crystal-clear detail.
You've heard of Picture-in-Picture (PIP) before, and the Samsung HDTV Monitor has taken it to a whole new level. Now for the first time, you have the ability to watch a TV program and work on your PC at the same time. So you can finish up a work document while you watch the final seconds of your favorite TV program on a smaller inset screen. Now, that's what we call multitasking and efficient working.
Built with two High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) inputs, the Samsung HDTV Monitor can now be considered to be a complete multimedia entertainment center. HDMI provides high definition digital data from devices including set-top boxes, DVD and Blu-ray players, and gaming consoles, straight into your HDTV Monitor. Plus, you can use HDMI inputs to connect Mobile High-definition

With ConnectShare™, you can connect a USB memory drive or other USB device directly into the HDTV Monitor, and immediately access a wide range of digital content such as movies, photos, and music. ConnectShare™ allows you to enjoy all the content you would normally access through your PC, now without your PC.
Obviously everyone would like to sit directly in front of their monitor screen whenever they're watching something. But you're not always able to sit directly in front of the screen. Samsung MagicAngle Vertical changes all of that. With Samsung MagicAngle Vertical, you can adjust the vertical viewing angles by up to 20 different steps, 10 up and 10 down, so the images on the screen are seen at their best. So whether you're sitting at your desk or lying on the couch, Samsung MagicAngle Vertical allows you to view picture-perfect images on your screen as if you were standing directly in front of it.
A stand tail at the base of the monitor creates a hook that keeps cables in place and organized. This simple design feature prevents cables from becoming a tangled mess, so your desk stays neat and clean.
Make an artistic statement with a design that naturally blends subtle color gradations into the standard computer monitor frame. Samsung's Touch of Color (ToC) design gives the glossy piano-black bezel frame a hint of red for a monitor that enhances any space. Also, LED technology enables striking, ultra-thin displays.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Resplendent in its new shiny gold label, Krug is a majestic Champagne. Its velvet texture, dominated by mature flavors, is toasty and rich, dense and complex. In the mouth, its beautiful roasted almond, spice and ripe pears all balance impressively. Could the wine be getting even better? No..
Cellar/Tasting Notes JS: "This is very concentrated with dried pineapple, honey and caramel. Full-bodied and superdense. Like honey. Massive. This is fantastic. From the former head and part owner of Yquem."

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Another showstopper, the 2010 Meursault Genevrieres is uncommonly rich and voluptuous for Genevrieres.

I have a Maxtor One Touch ... green brick external hard drive ...
the drive does not let me make any changes, additions, deletions ...
what have I done wrong?
If this is a NTFS formatted external connected to a Macintosh, this is going to be an easy answer heh...
Otherwise we need more information.
What format is the Maxtor One Touch?
Recent purchase? Is the drive new and data has never been put on it?
What OS is the target computer trying to access it?
Using USB cable?
Are you trying to drag and drop files/folders? or are you trying to use a Manager Suite?
It's a Maxtor One Touch III - USB
the data has been on it for a while
the OS is X 10.5.6
I am trying to drag and drop folders
it is formatted as an NTFS drive
thank you
Ah the data must have been put there by a Windows XP or Vista computer.
Your Leopard cannot natively write to a hard drive formatted in NTFS
Cannot write, modify, delete, or move data.
The only exception is on a more complex Mac hosting Samba with scripted d777 f666 permissions.
If this drive will need to be used cross platform, I suggest moving the data from it on your windows PC (or mac emulating windows virtually or with boot camp) and format the drive FAT32.
Beware this would cause a maximum 4 gig file size for any single file so insure that you won't need files that large when planning this.
thank you - I did initially populate the drive from my PC and have been using it from my Mac for some time.
Now then, in my infinite wisdom, I decided to copy all the data to another drive, re-connect to my PC to delete the files, then reattach to the Mac so that I could re-format the drive as Mac OS Journaled. Great sounding plan (I thought) ... only now:
the Mac disk utility will see the drive but not let me erase it ... the operation times out
the PC will no longer recognize the drive, and the system freezes if I connect to the Windows machine
did I kill my drive?
Any particular reason you are wanting Journaled? Just asking....
Extended non journaled with no 9 support would probably be better on a single partition
Yeah NTFS has an active MFT on the drive.
We can either do this with Disk Utility.app or in Unix with fdisk
In your Disk Utility.app, can you go to the PARTITON tab and select Volume Scheme: 1 Partition with Mac OS Extended format and APPLY?
If this doesn't work, we'll lift the hood and partition at command line.
well, I went with Journaled because that's the format that I noticed on all the other drives connected to the machine ... no other reason
(by the way, I don't know what an MFT is ...)
is Disk Utility.app what I get when I go through Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility?
if so, I tried the partition utility, and it didn't work either (that was a couple of days ago) - I just tried connecting the drive to the Mac and it doesn't seem o show up
... now what?
MFT is NTFS master file table. Its like the File Allocation Table of FAT but it uses unix-like permission schemes.
If the drive does not show up under Disk Utility, power the Mac without the drive, then connect the drive to a different usb port than you used the LAST time it worked correctly. If it does not show up, keep the drive on THAT usb port but power the drive down, wait a minute, then power back up. Do this up to three times (slowly) UNTIL it shows up in Disk Utility and give it plenty of time after powering the drive to run through diagnostics.
okay - I don't presume that it matters .. the drive is Firewire and not USB
I'll do it in the morning
thank you for your patience
The external drive is firewire?!
What model is your Mac?
Do you connect with Firewire 400 or 800 (if you have a pro model)
Firewire will be different solution than a usb.
A firewire drive to a mac (if it is not showing up) needs to be connected to the port while unpowered. Leave it connected for two minutes then press and hold the hard drive power button for 60 seconds and release. Wait 40 seconds to see if it appears. If it does not show up on desktop, check the Disk Utility.app to see if it appeared unpartitioned and needs to be initialized.

I really wonder if the Republicans will ever confront this issue even if they have the power after the election? Why is this even an issue? A constitutional law is in order. Let's see if any elected official has the ba**s to suggest it.
"Controversial new voter ID law"? If the "court" will allow those without ID to VOTE anyway, WHAT's the POINT? Judges on Courts like this one are the result when Republicans are too timid to fight against leftist-judges-for-life-candidates put on the Court by demonrats. God help this Country!
Pennsylvania always has been quite good at electing the best judges money can buy.
But what about the men who decide that they are really women who show up to vote looking not at all like the driver's license photo!?!?!?
It is simply incredible that any rational person would object to user-friendly voter ID laws to prevent fraudulent voting unless they believed the latter benefited their cause. The response of the judiciary to this common sense measure has in many venues been disappointing - in fact, appalling.The longer and louder Democrats object to reasonable voter ID the more obvious it appears that they simply do not desire to reduce voter fraud because they think they stand to lose if illegal voting is curtailed. The only other plausible explanation I can think of for Democrat opposition to voter ID would be that they think a substantial portion of their supporters are too lazy or mentally incompetent to take the simple steps required to obtain valid ID. Neither scenario speaks well for Democrats. They are not, of course, mutually exclusive.
I believe the two commonwealth court judges are in contempt of court. The Pa supreme court remanded with specific tasks for the commonwealth court to do.This just kicks the can down the road. Whole lot of that with democrats, and some republicans...
Just came from the doctor - had to show an id. They must be suppressing patients. This now opens the way for the emerging clone of Acorn to get to work. In the 2004 election a voting machine in the Philly area had 35,000 votes for John Kerry in it when the polls opened in the morning. This is the Democrat way(aka the Chicago way).
As a Central PAer with little more than disdain for Philly for what it has become and seems to stand for, why haven't the wussy repubicrats (!) ever tried to clean-up the sewer that is Philly voting practices? I know why the RATS are happy---
This is what you get with Liberal UNION controlled Judges -- absolute corruption.
This is sickening. Provisional ballots have been used for decades when a person shows up and is not on the registered list for a precinct.
The real vote fraud won't take place at the polling places - it'll be via mail-in ballots.Still, the judge isn't exactly Solomon here; why is voter ID acceptable for next year, and not now?
We have reached the point where the entire focus of the nation has turned to coddling the people who are too lazy to do the simplest tasks to function in a modern society. Every issue is centered around those who are bringing this country down, rather than the ones making it work and prosper. Before long the government will be sending out folks to wipe the butts of the "poor" who couldn't be expected to put out the effort on do it themselves.
How special, another judge to impeach and remove from office!
I wonder if a picture ID was needed to get an ObamaPhone? Another question to ponder -- Who paid for the ObamaPhones???
hahahah usmc, we all did! Check your bill, there is a line I believe Federal Universal Service Charge. My monthly bill on cell is $1.77 plus house phone plus wifey's cell! Aren't we just the best folks on duh planet! s/o. I assume this is what is is for.....
Why does this make me think that there is going to be MASSIVE voter fraud this election?
Well that locks up PA's electoral votes for obumbler now.
So, I guess buying alcohol without proving age is OK? Driving without a license is OK? Whoa -- flying a plane without a pilot's license? That one oughta draw some attention [to the smoking craters]. Prescribing drugs without an MD? How about arguing cases without passing the bar? [See Massachusetts for a recent precedent.] Sealing engineering drawings without a PE?Well, Judgie-poo?
Curious, what if a man shows up and requests a ballot belonging to a woman - say his mother - claiming to be that woman? Or is that an overreach - even for a Dem?
Purple dye in the interim.
Well, it looks like the vote count in Philadelphia can exceed the number of registered voters again.
We anticipate massive voting fraud just like in 2008.We will be as prepared a possible but I cannot but wonder why the decision came down today ........ enough time to get MORE fraudulent voter registrations in before the deadline next Monday at midnight.NoteIn 2008 an estimated 75% of the voter registrations turned in by Acorn were found to be fraudulent ..... We will never know how many were not identified and got through.I have always said we need to get at least an additional 10-15% of the votes for a candidate to win an election here.Amazingly the Justice Dept and D Judges are MORE interested in identifying ONE Single voter who might be denied the right to vote than side with the hundreds to thousands of REAL voters who's votes are regularly being negated by 'voting fraud'.

1964 Plymouth Belvedere 2-dr post 440 4-spd for sale…800-301-3886 or 810-691-2664
Sunday, July 31st, 2011This 1964 Restored Belvedere 2-dr post is for sale in Michigan. Inspected by certified classic auto appraiser Jason Phillips, It's a high end, very showable car. 440/bored472 C.I. engine, mated to a stock 4 speed, 8.75 rear 3:91 posi, which have all been fully rebuilt (receipts viewed). Resto pics show car stripped down to bare metal. Very clean, all steel original survivor body hand blocked straight and flat. Impressive, right down to the rocker bottoms and jamb surfaces. Excellent magnetic adhesion all around exterior and underneath. Fully rebuilt suspension front and rear. Collision free, rot free underbody with no patch panels. Nicely restored period interior with great glass and trim all around. Very high quality rebuild/restore on a radio delete car. 17″ American racing wheels in rear, 15″ matched fronts, are like new, mated to Mickey Thompson ET street radials in rear, show virtually no wear. Upgrades away from factory (other than wheels) include the bored 440, MSD/billet distributor, disc brakes and gages. Rest of car looks bone stock. In today's dollars, it would cost well over $80,000 to do one up this nice out of a solid survivor body. Car rocks down the road, tracks and brakes nice with plenty of power and aggression in throttle. See videos posted on youtube.com of test drive and walk around. $1800 rebuild on factory 4 speed completed in July 2011. Rear end rebuild done in 2010, engine approximately 2000 miles ago. This owner has spent a lot of money to build a very nice car. We're asking $45,000.00. 800-301-3886 or 810-691-2664. email email@example.com. Request a well written, narrative report, along with over 300 photos completely detailing this car. Feel free to come yourself and drive it, or send your own KNOWLEDGEABLE Mopar inspector.

I find LIFE to be a great metaphor for Real life. ITS UNFAIR!!! S/HE WHO GETS DOCTOR HAS JUST WON THE GAME!!!
I'm actually referencing the one under my name- Ardent has told me Time is akin to Bluff, though.
And it looks like we have experience with this field.
I understood what you were referencing, my statement still stands.
We have experience with Alot of things
FAKE edit: Although I suppose some congratulations are in order, you managed to find out I am in fact a "character" and that I can speak "out of" it, but do you really think that this revelation will help you?
-wait, have I referenced this here before?
We'll just have to figure that out then, hm? Work your mojo magic juju, mate.
What do I WISH to figure out? I wish I could figure out what the heck we need to do. But as of now, it looks like all we can do is wait, because Ardent's gone for the moment- and you aren't him. Although I suppose there's always the chance that you're here to impart some wisdom upon us all.
I wish we knew.
So bring it.
but seriously what do you guys want to play
Waiting seems like a sensible course of action at this point.
Or you can continue to humor me with your ultimately meaningless questions. I'm sorry to say that the chances of finding out what you truly want to know is rather small
I want to find out what Ross_Varn needs to do.
I want the specifics.
I wonder. If I used PP's powers on you, what would happen?
Everything would explode into confusion.
Not like I can't take more photos. Why not? I'll do it.
It also gives me access to your mind, like the things you've been told!

My recipe usually involves opening up a box of Tower Isles HOT and setting the toaster oven at 350 for 15 minutes.
mine is a quick ride to White Plains Road. Patties and Coco Bread, the best in NYC.

yeah, they really are good.
I also found out that golden krust delivers to me (also quite good) perhaps I'm wasting my time on this endeavor. I'm okay with pastry, but really, why mess with a good thing.

We have a few Jamaican bakeries around here, one makes its own patties. I like them, but they aren't as good as Golden Krust. So far they all appear to be at least 40 minutes from where I live.

I like this recipe. It has been consistently good. Hope you enjoy. Link here
habanero?? suspect... though it does include bread crumbs, which the Times recipe omits. I suspect the crumbs or white bread addittions may contiribute a squishy texture to the meat, which I like...so onwards! recipes will be combined! thanks MichBill!

The dough from the nyt recipe was quite sticky and wet a bit like play dough. I also used some veg. shortening as well as the suet, as I didn't have enough...(12 oz!) I thought of using butter, but didn't want to eff with the recipe too much. The color was a light yellow color, not the taxi yellow of Tower Isle (perhaps it bakes up darker?) I'm off to search for that one damn pepper...
My name's Emma Feigenbaum.
Posted 13 November 2005 - 08:27 PM
firstly. I added one more scotch bonnet pepper (dean and deluca). I added four slices of white bread (pepperidge farm) cut into cubes. I also added a pinch of msg
I also rendered my own suet (check the suet thread) and didn't end up with enough, so I also added vegetable shortening.
Okay, so the pastry turned out like a shortbread crust. It's very good but I always think of pattys as more flaky and less crumbley. I also didn't love the addition of curry in the crust. I think next time I'll just stick with tumeric for color and thats it. I also needed to bake the patties a little longer than the prescribed 30 mins.
The meat was just right- soft and tender and well flavoured. It was not spicy enough and next time I'll add more peppers but otherwise it was on the money. I liked the addition of white bread. without it the filling would have had a more chili like consistancy and I wanted a bit more of a paste. The recipe made exactly 12 regular patties and 2 little scrap patties.
I'll try this again, but I hope to get a better idea of the true meaning of "suet"
sorry no pictures but all and all a smashing success thanks for the help guys.
this recipe was also cheap to put together and rather easy from start to finish, just needed a little leg work sourcing the ingrediants.
sorry I can't spell.

Fort Drum— "I wanted to do something to give back to the soldiers" said 7-year-old Girl Scout, Annabelle Sweet. Ms. Sweet is the daughter of Lt. Col. Zeke Sweet who said that it was all Annabelle's idea to raise Girl Scout cookies for soldiers.
Ms. Sweet raised 60 boxes of Girl Scout cookies for soldiers last year and 100 this year, a total of over $450 worth of cookies. Soldiers lined up at the USO on post today to have hot dogs and free Girl Scout cookies.
"Soldiers work really hard" said Ms. Sweet, "that's why I wanted to do this. I hope that next year I can raise 200 boxes of Girl Scout cookies to give to the soldiers." A number of soldiers lined up, letting Ms. Sweet know that they would come back to buy cookies from the Girl Scout, and were surprised to find out the cookies were free.
Ms. Sweet received a lot of handshakes and many thanks from hungry soldiers appreciating all of her hard work.
