Tired of clicking to see a large version? Upgrade to e2 to browse all photos automatically at their largest size.Last Tuesday's upload in b&w, at Anne Worner's suggestion.
There was criticism last week that the image looked cold and needed warming up. It was taken in the remnants of freezing fog, in a valley where at this time of year the sun rises above the hills around lunch time and goes back down an hour later. I'm hoping that b&w looks even colder!
As mentioned previously, this is about how locals use and enjoy our Riverside Park.

The light at the end of the tunnel gives a lovely depth to the image. Lots of detail but not feeling the cold though, although I do prefer this version to the previous. Looking back I think the shade was a bit blue.
Interesting comments. The mist along the valley is usually blueish, we notice it quite often. Is that odd, I wonder? Maybe it's something to do with the clouds of steam (we are assured that that is all it is... ) pumped out by the biggest loo-paper factory in Europe, which is just above this...
Thanks folks, and good morning.
The problem with this time of year is that there are a lot of autumn scene images posted on all forums, and although it might be wrong, we tend to expect an autumn scene to be really warm. Here is an example of one of my favourite shots (not my shot) of autumn autumn shot. I suspect that the reason it's so popular (248 favourites) is as much about the warmth of the colours as it is about the prettiness of the view. Perhaps it's something in our DNA? Winter is coming, and we want to see the warmth in autumn as we don't want to think about the cold to come. At least not until we get those pretty snow scenes for Xmas.
I think your mono version here is better than the colour. It's a good conversion, with a good range of tones. Albert said "Autumn is all about colour" and it is, but we have imaginations, and mono can work just as well.

As Oscar Wilde said in a different context, The triumph of hope over experience?
It has converted well and makes a good mono, although I feel the original conveys the feeling of autumn better.
Quote: although it might be wrong, we tend to expect an autumn scene to be really warm.
As Oscar Wilde said in a different context, The triumph of hope over experience?
Quite so, quite so. Autumn has some attraction as we cling to the hope of the warmth of late summer continuing.
I did an edit of the colour one last week (just on my PC - I didn't load it anywhere). I understand that you wanted to show in that colour version the coldness as well as the warmth. I see you shot it in RAW (good!). What I did in the RAW edit was to go to the colour channels. I left the blue alone, but pushed the saturation levels of the oranges and reds. That made the whole scene much warmer, apart from the blueish areas which seemed to retain their original saturation and hue. Doing a general saturation change will screw up the blues, but doing it through separate colour channels in RAW is much more selective.
You might want to try that?
I hate the cold and suffer in the winter heavily, but must admit I like this better than the colour version, I have a place for both versions but I tend to like B&W not that I use it a lot, but I feel you get much better tones and textures that you do not get with colour, like it regards Leon.
not sure which one I prefer Moira, they both have good points.
Here I like the richness of the gray tones and, as dave says, the sense of depth given by the light at the end of the walkpath.
As per the blueish tones in the color version, you may act directly on the raw file with the temperature settings. Many times, especially in dark conditions, the AWB doesn't work properly.
enjoy your week
As you are aware Moira I have a very small brain indeed and have little imagination.Hence I don't want to think and work out images so if it's Autum I like rusty brown leaves either in the warmth or the cold however I do like this image although I might like it better if it were colour bur no matter you are still just getting one vote.
Lovely tones and textures Moira, I much prefer this shot lots of detail with the light at the end of the tunnel putting the icing on the cake so to speak. NOT feeling the cold in the shot, but I am seeing a well taken image.
As per the blueish tones in the color version, you may act directly on the raw file with the temperature settings. Many times, especially in dark conditions, the AWB doesn't work properly.
It's also possible that the camera sees a lot of warm colours and thinks it's too red, so cools the WB - to more blue. WB is the only thing set with RAW, all other photo settings on the camera are ignored (if you switch to mono mode in RAW you get a BW image in the viewfinder, but the RAW is still colour). And cameras can be pretty rubbish at capturing faithfully a scene.
Just got back from the Monday morning litter-pick, in Low Prudhoe, just above this. I had a quick conflab with other pickers, the general consensus was yes, our mist is blueish.
Quote: Perhaps it's something in our DNA? Winter is coming, and we want to see the warmth in autumn as we don't want to think about the cold to come.
True, but this does imply that what you want to see may be some distance from the truth! We had our first snow in October, autumn in the North East is not warm.
I try to convey the truth of what I experience. I work very carefully on RAW files to achieve that. I'm not trying to create pretty pictures, it's about the feel of the moment.
Now I need to thaw my feet out.
PS Bill has uploaded some very satisfyingly rich, warm autumn colours this morning, from just along the riverbank here. The interesting thing is that nobody has picked up on the fact that it's his shot that is very heavily manipulated. I take the point that it's what we want to see but take my word, it sure ain't the truth.
Quote: I take the point that it's what we want to see but take my word, it sure ain't the truth.
our brain is extremely reluctant to accept something different from what it's normally "seen"....
we have to get along with this, Moira
It always comes down to what we see ourselves. The monochrome has evened out the tones and the colour has gone which for me gave depth and enjoyment. It would be interesting to see what a thermal image would have made of this scene apart from lighting u the warm couple like a Christmas tree.
I think the colour had a little more in it,, the main tree branch for instance plays a large part in the colour version.
I doubt this will help.
Quote: our brain is extremely reluctant to accept something different from what it's normally "seen"....
This is why I regret the decline of the reality? group, which for a while was very active in exploring such issues.
The brain can be trained to expect different things of course. My artistic training was in watercolour painting. And one of the first things that you learn is the importance of blue in shadows.
We're off to find a replacement keyboard for Himself, back later.
An interesting argument going here.....I feel the same way when I upload snow that is blue. Everyone wants white snow even though it rarely is pure white. I've seen it all shades of blues and pinks.
All that being said, this makes a striking mono. I like both versions for very different reasons. I don't think one is better than the other.
With regard to several of the interesting comments on what we really see. I had a cataract problem a few years ago and had to have them out and implants put in. Up to that point I was seeing colours as very washed out and muddy looking. The first thing you notice after the op is the complete change in colour vibrancy in everything. I believe Monet had a similar problem which is why he overdid things with the lush colours. We don't all see things the same. I mentioned eyes, but our individual brains probably see things slightly different as well.
Then of course there's that dreaded problem of uncalibrated monitors...
This is beautifully converted Moira - I had a play with your colour version and this is rather similar to the mono I ended up with You were using NIK? For some reason, my eyes rest more on the couple in this one, not needing to venture throughout the frame enjoying all the colourful leaves.
I too miss the Reality Group - was thinking of it the other day, and wondering if maybe we were uploading too many images, maybe one well thought out would have sufficed. I am trying my hand at the Weekly Black and White challenge group - it's the inspiration of being given a task that I've missed. It really does get me thinking, and then I found the amoretree
A stunning quality mono, Moira, and toggling between the two, I think it's equally as pleasing
An interesting debate above here Moira but I'm firmly in the camp that wants colour from autumnal scenes. I love autumn and to me that means seeing and experiencing the joy the colours of the rich ambers, yellows and reds bring at this time of year. I can appreciate your work converting this to mono - but I want more!
Yes Anne, NIK Siver Efex Pro 2 - best change that I've made in ages, it's the first time that digital has reminded me of the darkroom days. I suspected that you would come up with something similar.
As some longer-serving members will know, the psychology of how we view images is one of my (many) obsessions...
Cheers everyone.
Quote: An interesting argument going here.....I feel the same way when I upload snow that is blue. Everyone wants white snow even though it rarely is pure white. I've seen it all shades of blues and pinks.
I spent a day last winter studying how the colours in snow, and particularly deep in crevices, vary through the course of the day. We get some fabulous purple snow as the sun is going down.
In b&w or in color, it looks lovely. It's a classical walk down a wooded path. Cracking shot!
i am surprised that I like the mono better... there you go, autumn colours in mono can be charming!
This works very well for me Moira.
It doesnt look cold, more sort of comforting and romantic.
Quote: Autumn is all about colour so I much prefer the colour version.
I must agree with Albert here

Having decided, then, let's talk about a few tips and tricks for how to do just that. Some of these may be painfully obvious, but I hope I can help at least one or two of you fine neurotic Disney folk find a little extra magic between trips to the property.

BACKGROUND: Backing up studies that show that drivers who use cell phones are more likely to have accidents, recent experiments by scientists at the University of Kansas show that observers engaged in a verbal task have a limited spatial attention window. The reason? They're less aware of incoming visual "cues."
WHAT THEY FOUND: Participants in the experiments were able to perform a simple task quite easily. But when half the group was asked to take on an additional verbal task, their ability to perform the first task was hindered. This indicates that even with the wide availability of hands-free devices for cell phone use in the car, there is still a significant risk involved when driving and talking on the phone at the same time.
THE PROBLEM: In the U.S., more than 190 million people used cell phones as of June 2005, compared to only 4.3 million in 1990. Studies have shown that motorists who use cell phones while driving are four times as likely to get into serious accidents. This happens in part because (a) people must take their eyes off the road momentarily while dialing, and (b) they become so absorbed in their conversations that it reduces their ability to concentrate on driving.
SPEECH AND THE BRAIN: Speech is a very complex function. There are two primary areas of the brain associated with speech: "Broca's area," located in the left frontal cortex, and "Wernicke's area," located further back and lower in the left temporal lobe. But scientists suspect other parts of the brain are involved as well. When we speak, we select words according to what we think the person we're talking to will understand. We activate the sounds for each word, and put them together in a sentence. We also choose which words to emphasize and how to pronounce them. All this information is processed by the brain and translated into movements of the mouth, jaw, tongue, palate, and voice box, among other areas.
The Human Factors and Ergonomics Society contributed to the information contained in the TV portion of this report.

Joe Biden saves the day for Obama in debt ceiling deal -- Vice President is key figure in deal with GOP in senate
Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2011 at 10:55 PM

VICE President Joe Biden is seen as the man who created the breakthrough in the debt ceiling talks with the Republican Party.
Biden, the Irish American vice president, had a lengthy Senate career before taking up his present job, and has maintained close contacts with former colleagues on both sides.
Unlike President Obama, who spent only a couple of years in the Senate, Biden still has great credibility on both sides.
He conducted secret negotiations with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, with whom he has a cordial relationship, throughout the worst of the crisis.
Biden has become Obama's go to guy in a crisis, and it didn't get much bigger than the debt ceiling war.
The consequences of failing to reach a deal were totally unpredictable, but fears were expressed on both sides that stock prices would collapse, interest rates would rise, and the most spectacular own goal in the history of the U.S. would have been accomplished.
It was this scenario which eventually drove both sides together. And Biden and McConnell, despite all the heated rhetoric, kept their eyes on the prize.
The two men continued to meet in secret right up until yesterday when the deal was struck.
Biden's ability to work with Republicans has made him the most indispensable person in the Obama administration on domestic affairs.
With no thoughts of the presidency himself, Biden has undertaken the toughest tasks that the Obama administration has faced.
Once again he has played a huge role in grabbing a victory from the jaws of defeat, and has helped further cement the bond between him and Obama.
In the end Obama will get the kudos, but insiders in the White House will know that without Biden no deal could have been reached.
He is friendly and gregarious, in contrast to the aloof and professorial Obama. His Irish wit and humor have managed to lighten the mood during many intense negotiations.
Dick Cheney was an incredibly powerful vice president – some believe the real power behind the George W. Bush throne.
Biden is not that, but he is a facilitator, a man who can get a deal done despite the obstacles.
Such problem solvers are rare these days in American politics, and Biden has rightly become the best-known of them.

Biden an American hero. I wait with baited breath to see how many teahadist fall in line with the "status Quo". They will eventually learn it's not all about them and history dictates their future. Their survival in washington is all about Self preservation and they will fall in line again and again! and again.

On hearing that William Henry Harrison was running for the Great Chief of the Americans, Tecumseh's Brother, "The Prophet," (a Shawnee Chief) is said to have stated this curse:
"Brother, be of good cheer. Before one winter shall pass, the chance will yet come to build our nation and drive the Americans from our land. If this should fail, then a curse shall be upon the great chief of the Americans, if they shall ever pick Harrison to lead them.
"His days in power shall be cut short. And for every twenty winters following, the days in power of the great chief which they shall select shall be cut short. Our people shall not be the instrument to shorten their time. Either the Great Spirit shall shorten their days or their own people shall shoot them.
"This is not all. Each contest to select their great chief shall be marked by sharp divisions within their nation. Within seven winters of each contest, there shall be a war among their people, either within their nation or with other nations, I know not which. Our people shall prosper only if they can avoid these wars."
Maybe Reagan's survival did not break the curse. Perhaps, with the 2000 election of G.W., it has fallen more upon our people than on the presidency. We sure seem to be "warring" amoung ourselves these days.

These boys must think the people are stupid to believe this. It is merely prolonging the collapse of creating money out of nothing. DEBT = MONEY- so the more debt the more money/paper the feds can create out of thin air- so of course it all looks grand. It is really the rich who will benefit, not the ordinary citizen who is now heading for auto genocide. God bless America. Their karma is upon them.

Patrick, the "Own Goal" analogy to not raising the debt ceiling is perfect. I had not heard it used before and I have been intently following the republican/tea party created crisis on several cable stations, web media and our local news. "Shooting ourselves in the foot" was the only similar one I'd heard. Why do we Americans always reach first for the firearms analogy? Thanks for a little peak at the blue sky behind the storm clouds.

King to visit Brussels for discussions on NK human rights
WASHINGTON (Yonhap) -- A U.S. envoy will travel to Brussels next week to discuss North Korean human rights with the European Union, the State Department announced Friday.
Amb. Robert King, the special envoy for North Korean human rights issues, will participate in the European Parliament subcommittee on the human rights situation in North Korea on Tuesday, the department said in a press release. King also plans to meet with officials from the European Parliament, the European External Action Service, nongovernmental organizations and countries that share their deep concerns about the human rights situation in the communist nation, it added. King is scheduled to return to Washington on Thursday after the three-day trip. Earlier this week, the department issued a far-reaching report on the human rights record in 199 nations, including North Korea, which it graded as "extremely poor." |

A Monday Medley
Happy World Organ Day! In case you haven't sent out your greeting cards or prepared your party yet, there are still a few shopping hours left to celebrate, along with the rest of the world, "the King of Instruments." Find out here where you can hear the real thing, live and in person, one of music's greatest thrills. Since the event is timed to coincide with the 850th anniversary of the Cathédrale Notre Dame de Paris, we'll start WFCR's classical music at 9:00 with the Notre Dame organ, played by one of its former organists, Pierre Moreau, performing a classic showpiece by another famed Notre-Dame organist, Louis Vierne's "Carillon de Westminster." There'll be more music for organs large and small on the show throughout the day. So tune in. And please, hug your local organist — just not when he or she is playing, lest you accidentally get one of your stops pulled.
When Harry Met Idol. I have to admit not paying any attention to "American Idol," "The Voice" or any other such televised musical competitions, though I don't begrudge those who do. But I had to take notice when several Facebook friends posted this blog entry about Harry Connick Jr.' s recent guest mentoring stint on "Idol." In case you missed it, here's an excellent example of the kind of musical mentoring that takes place in studios and master classes every day, but which the general musical public hardly ever gets to see. Even going beyond music and the arts, it's a fabulous lesson for all of us to respect our craft, whatever it may be, and to mentor others in doing the same.
A Walking Fire. They've been building a reputation as one of classical music's coolest "insider" acts for several years now, but with "A Walking Fire," their debut CD for the newly-revived Mercury Classics label, the string quartet Brooklyn Rider has hit the big time. And hit it out of the park, to my ears. With two exciting contemporary works centered around Béla Bartók's String Quartet No. 2, the album explores the confluence of classical and Eurasian folk with infectious spirit and fiery virtuosity. But as is not always the case with such "alt-classical" ensembles, these guys have classical chops galore — there's not a hint of fakery or anything less that first-class musicianship. Even their choice of somewhat lo-fi sound for the CD doesn't bother me as much as it usually does, though I would still have preferred a pristine digital recording. Stay tuned — it'll be coming soon to a classical station near you!

I read your post on coastalBC.com quite interesting , 'twas a better description than the one you posted here! anyway, in my opinion, if you think you are ready to put in the hard hours of frustration, then go for it. Like anything, its going to be tough to begin with but I am confident you can manage. What are the thickness and width? (should be on the bottom of the board next to the height). You are very skinny, so you should be able to handle a relatively thinner board without much trouble...I weighed about 65 KG's (about 143 pounds) and I was 5'11 when I got my first shortboard, It was 6'1, and quite thin board (18 2/8 x 4 1/4). I got used to the board after about 2 weeks, however, I was only coming down from a 6'6 Fish which i surfed most days of the week.
It will take you a while to get used to, but with sufficient practice it is managable

We've all been in this spot before. Male or Female. Single or Taken. Drunk or Sober.
It really doesn't matter, we're in a scenario when we're with another person where we're showing affection. Sometimes it can be good, and other times it can be really, and I mean REALLY BAD!
CUTE OR SEXUAL. It doesn't matter if you're a virgin, or you popped your/a cherry a long time ago. We all have pet peeves when being with a member of the opposite sex. Being single again, I've come to realise that I really hate dating. Taste testing new men, and sometimes experiencing new 'moves'. I've also had some horrible moments in my past. Either being in or out of a relationship, here are my pet peeves of affection.
1. Dirty Talk: I enjoy sex very much. I'm in the mood, and I'm ready to go. I hate dirty talk though. It really turns me off. Just shut the fuck up and have sex with me. Moan and groan all you want, hey you can even check in to see if I'm enjoying myself. Please don't describe my body to me in that disgusting breathy voice. You may be shocked, but I have seen myself naked. I'm well aware what my private bits look like. Also, calling me names is just cringing. If you want me to climax, don't act like we're in a porn movie.
2. Bad Kissing: I'm sorry, but there are so many men out there that just don't know how to kiss. You can enjoy kissing without tongue 24/7. If you are a big tongue user, don't open your mouth when kissing my lips. Otherwise you'll be making out with my nose and chin as well. And licking around my mouth is a no, no, NO!
3. TMI Public Affection: I've always been funny about P&A. I've always been like this. I don't mind holding a boys hand. Hey, I like to be cute. A peck is nice too. I guess I think in my mind, what I don't like couples doing in public, I can't be a hypocrite and do the exact same thing. Make out sessions, ass grabbing, inappropriate sexual touching in public. Save it for a more private time please. If you're drunk though, and I'm drunk. Hey, I couldn't give a flying fuck.
These are a few of my least favourite things. What about you guys? What really ticks you off!?
Do we have the balls though to stand up to this person and tell them no to do what they're doing. I always draw a line at dirty talk, because it really pisses me off. At least with a bad kisser, you never have to see them again. If a boy wants a boob grab in public, I'm happy for a groin kick in public.

Couple of questions about the Tyan S2568UGN. We have one running RH 7.3 and the current lm_sensors installed. 1. sync followed by poweroff brings the OS down but does NOT turn off the power. This even though ACPI is enabled in the BIOS. Have any of you been able to power down one of these boards from the OS to the point where it turns off the power? 2. Anybody have an appropriate sensors.conf file for this? The default one reads both CPUs and the motherboard at around 77C. Well, that's clearly not right since I can hold my finger against the side of the heat sink and it's warm but not uncomfortably hot. 45C, tops. Granted that's the outside of the heat sink, but it's hard to believe that there is a 30 degree difference. Similar CPUs in Asus A7V266E motherboards read only 57C from the on chip diode, and the mobo is only 28C. I don't know where the motherboard sensor is on the Tyan but the board itself couldn't have been much above room temperature. Which makes me wonder if there's any connection at all between the Temps coming out of the sensors program and what the actual thermistors are experiencing. 3. Is there a BIOS temperature monitor on this board? I looked and couldn't find one. Thanks, David Mathog mathog at caltech.edu Manager, Sequence Analysis Facility, Biology Division, Caltech

After a shareholder meeting with the EPA, AWWA releases 10 suggestions on how to best implement a new lead reduction act.
During a shareholder meeting on August 16, The U.S. Environment Protections Agency called for members to submit opinions and suggestions that they may have regarding the implementation of the "Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act" (Public Law 111-380). This law outlines two basic objectives: lowering the allowable amount of lead in pipes, fittings, and plumbing fixtures coming into contact with water and creating a small number of exemptions to this lead-free definition.
In response to this, the American Water Works Association released a detailed statement of ideas regarding the law and how best to integrate it into the water industry.
In this statement, released August 31, AWWA outlined ten recommendations about moving forward toward clean water. Calling for a simple and direct execution of this act, AWWA's suggestions ranged from focusing on those two objectives to shying away from elaborate implementations of this act.
"It is essential that the Agency facilitate timely implementation of Public Law 111-380 and not introduce additional uncertainty or complicate work that is already underway to achieve compliance with the law's intent," said Thomas Curtis, AWWA's deputy executive director, in a letter accompanying the suggestions.
For the full list, visit the AWWA website.

Are modern journalists losing their ability to walk on eggshells when the situation calls for it, especially with recent controversial events? What happened to getting the facts straight?
But in the person's defense, it was technically an honest mistake. A lot of Asian countries do use the surnames first, and not many people realize that Korean names often have "parts" to them. Regardless, poor judgment is poor judgment no matter how you want to look at it.

Absolutely Perfect!
29/08/2010 by MeganL
I attended a wedding at The National Piping Centre recently. I was a bridesmaid and my best friend Sarah was getting married. To start, Sarah and us girls were 30 mins early and we thought we'd have to sit in the crammed car and get our dresses creased but the staff were all very helpful and found a place for us to stand out of the way of all the arriving guests. Sarah's dad is also in a wheelchair and the staff were very helpful in arranging the lift for us. The ceremony was in the auditorium and it looked gorgeous, with a red carpet for us to walk down. After the ceremony we all moved on to the drinks reception in the museum while the staff set up for the dinner. The museum was such a great place to have the drinks as it really continued the Scottish theme and was something different! We then went outside for photographs and the room was soon ready for us to sit down for our meal. The staff were quick to offer us wine on our arrival and the food was quickly served after . To start we had soup, we then had chicken with haggis, potato and vegetables and for dessert we had lemon tart. It was all delicious and the staff were very polite and helpful. After the meal we all had to wait around for a while whilst the room was sorted out for the ceilidh. That was done quickly, and we were soon up dancing the night away! A few of us stayed at the small hotel attached to the restaurant that night and once again, I have nothing bad to say! We all had a lovely cooked breakfast the nest morning which was perfect for our hangovers! I cannot fault the venue, the staff were so helpful and friendly, and the food was great! The only thing i can say is that it gets very warm in the auditorium but nothing to stop you having an amazing night! Would definitely recommend the National Piping Centre as would Sarah, the beautiful bride!

Seriously tasty food
28/08/2010 by carlacarlacarla
I have had a couple of lunches here now and have enjoyed it at TNPC so much I thought it was about time I wrote a wee review! I love the cosy restaurant, and there are seats outside if you're brave enough in the Scottish summer. I love seafood and the Cullen Skink is highly recommended! With the friendly staff and ideal location I hope other people go and have as good a time as I did!

Lovely venue
15/10/2007 by kittieskitchen
I recently attended a wedding here, what a lovely venue! As we arrived the piper started playing - I looked round expecting to see the wedding party - but no, we were just being personally piped in! The ceremony was performed upstairs, followed by pictures out on the steps and a champagne reception in the museum. We then moved back upstairs where the tables were set up. The food was lovely, we started with mixed melon and berry compote, followed by venison with a creamy bacon sauce. Desert was cranachan with brandy snaps. The staff responded quickly and effectively to my boyfriend's dairly intolerance, serving him vension without the cream, and sorbet instead of cranachan. After dinner we had a brief spell downstairs at the bar while the room was arranged for the celidh. The whole day proceeded smoothly - I would definitely recommend this as a wedding venue. The wedding party stayed at the centre that night, the next morning we went to meet them for breakfast- an absolutely fabulous full Scottish breakfast! Bacon, amazing sausages, eggs cooked as you like them, tattie scone, proper haggis, black pudding, roasted cherry tomatoes, mushrooms and toast... It certainly put paid to the post-wedding hangover!

Outstanding service
12/10/2007 by Layclerk
Excellent food in the restaurant. I had my wedding reception here, and a year later we booked a table for our anniversary (without saying why we were booking or referring in any way to the event the year before). To our surprise they welcomed us as if we were old friends, asking how our first year of marriage had gone, and congratulating us on our anniversary. Now that's service!

Comments about ClassicFlame Corinth 1,000 Sq. Ft. Infrared Electric Fireplace Media Center in Burnished Walnut - 23IDE1447-W502:
Every bit as pretty as the picture. Arrived well packed. A couple of minor areas needed touching up with the pen supplied by the manufacturer. No big deal though.
Love our fireplace!

Love it!
By RN
from Williamsport PA
Absolutely love it. I set it up myself except needed help to place the top portion, which comes preassembled, (yay!) onto the base portion. I am not the handiest person but was easily able to follow the directions and put it together. Love the look and the pieces arrived in excellent shape. It gives the perfect amount of warmth with the thermostat.

A U.S. district court has granted a preliminary injunction halting the operation of Canadian telemarketers who illegally marketed lottery tickets to senior citizens in the United States in violation of federal laws. At the request of the Federal Trade Commission, the court temporarily barred the defendants from selling tickets, chances, or any foreign lottery chances to residents of the United States; barred deceptive claims about the chances of winning the Canadian lottery; prohibited misrepresentations or omissions about material facts; and ordered an asset freeze to preserve funds for consumer redress.
On September 30, 2002, the FTC filed a complaint in U.S. district court in Chicago charging that a group of related companies operated by six Canadians was running telemarketing boiler rooms targeting seniors in an illegal foreign lottery scheme. The FTC alleged that the telemarketers told the consumers that by investing with them, the consumers had a very good chance of winning the Canadian lottery. According to the FTC, the telemarketers told many consumers that it is legal for U.S. consumers to buy Canadian lottery tickets. They told some consumers that they had already won a large prize and that consumers should send them money to redeem their winnings.
The FTC alleged that the claims were deceptive: the chances of winning the lottery were not good - the odds are long; it is a crime for U.S. consumers to buy Canadian lottery tickets; and the consumers who sent money to redeem large prizes never received them. The deceptive claims violated the FTC Act and the Telemarketing Sales Rule. The FTC asked the court to shut down the operation pending trial, and freeze any assets to preserve them for consumer redress. On October 1, 2002 the court issued a temporary restraining order, granting the FTC's request.
Eleven of the 14 defendants now have agreed to abide by the provisions of the temporary restraining order, pending a trial in this matter. Stipulated preliminary injunctions will bar them from:
- promoting, offering for sale or selling tickets, chances of registrations in lotteries to U.S. residents;
- purchasing or registering any ticket or any interest in any lottery for any U.S. resident;
- misrepresenting or omitting material facts to U.S. consumers in connection with the advertising, marketing, or sale of any product or service;
- making false or misleading statements to induce any person to pay for any good or service; and
- failing to disclose, in a clear and conspicuous manner, before a customer pays for any goods or services, all material restrictions, limitations, or conditions to receive those goods or services.
The preliminary injunction will assure preservation of the assets of the Canadian corporations and two individual defendants, George Yemec and Anita Rapp. If the FTC prevails at trial, it will ask the court to order consumer redress. Two defendants, Steven Rapp and Paul Tesky, are required to provide financial records to the court. The defendants have not admitted to any violations of the law.
The defendants in the case are World Media Brokers Inc., (also known as 913062 Ontario Inc.,) 1165107 Ontario Inc., (also doing business as Canadian Catalogue, Canadian Catalogue Services, CCS, and Interwin Marketing), Faby Games Inc., (also known as1106759 Ontario Inc., and also doing business as Canadian Catalogue Services and CCS, 624654 Ontario Limited, Express Sales, Express Marketing Services, EMS and First Telegroup Marketing), 637736 Ontario Limited, (doing business as Express Marketing Services and EMS), 537721 Ontario Inc., (also doing business as Canadian Express Club), Express Marketing Services Ltd., (also doing business as EMS, Cash & Prizes, Inc.), Intermarketing Services, Inc., George Yemec, Anita Rapp, Steven Rapp, Paul Teskey, Jean-Paul Teskey, and Dean Temple.
Copies of the complaint are available from the FTC's Web site at http://www.ftc.gov and also from the FTC's Consumer Response Center, Room 130, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580. The FTC works for the consumer to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices in the marketplace and to provide information to help consumers spot, stop, and avoid them. To file a complaint, or to get free information on any of 150 consumer topics, call toll-free, 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357), or use the complaint form at http://www.ftc.gov. The FTC enters Internet, telemarketing, identity theft, and other fraud-related complaints into Consumer Sentinel, a secure, online database available to hundreds of civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad.
