The paint was obviously damaged and retouched up - and very poorly done. These desks were probably old and not cared for in the warehouse. They never should have been shipped.
This is not an expensive desk so dont expect for it to be amazing quality. It arrived with a few nicks here and there but overall you get what you pay for. Love this style of desk and it was easy to put together. Have had no problems with the drawer either. Shipping is pretty fast as well
Would recommend this desk to anyone looking for a small desk with clean lines and one drawer. I had a small space and it fit perfectly. Perfect for computers as well.
I needed a table that would fit inside my guest room closet and be sturdy enough to hold a sewing machine. I was pleased that the dimensions were exactly as stated in the description. My only disappointment is that the drawer is not very deep. Since the table is 19 1/2in. deep, I expected a deeper drawer. It will hold needles, bobbins and scissors. The ease in which it was assembled was also a plus.
I guess I shouldn't have expected much for a $** desk. The desks looked like they were used: edges appeared to be painted over from wear & tear...the legs were nicked and dirty in spots...and one of the desk arrived with NO HARDWARE (I ordered two). Bought these for my twin sons--if I get a couple years out of them, I'll be lucky. But I could never recommend this product to someone.
I understand that you get what you pay for but this is desk is really, really cheap. The style is great -- simple, clean lines. The size is perfect for our guest room. But the materials are terrible. I would not recommend this desk. Spend a few extra bucks and get something better.
The deak is made totally from compressed wood. The melanine finish is accepatable but flawed in several places along the seems. The legs did not attach properly since the bolts did not line up with the leg anchors. All in all, workmanship was as expected but then again I didn't expect much.
nice desk for student or child. Nice for the price. Drawer does not open wide enough but suitable. Good for my purpose but probably not suitable for a true decorator.
The top of the desk was damaged upon receipt. Having to return to o.com.

We're pleased to welcome -- -- Robin still township mayor Dave street near -- welcome TO.
Thank you thank you very much for having me so what is the timeframe to see this fulfillment center built and went to -- 700 people get to work.
-- this this construction project is gonna happen very fast that should start in the next couple months and be completed sometime at the end of 2014.
Why kids Amazon she's -- -- township what is it about your town is -- the logistics this is the fulfillment -- -- shipping is key.
-- did they could -- we have a great location you know our town really is centrally located in the middle state we have through 195 and that's part of our town as well as the turnpike so very easy to go north south and east and west.
We've also had a good reputation of -- fortune 500 companies to our town we've gotten very good at bringing projects and on time.
And making the process more business oriented as opposed to what people are used to in government we talk about.
Projects -- come into our town in terms of customers and really trying to make it easier for business to do business with government.
Your budget 22 point three million dollars when he 122013.
Amazon is promising 22 million in tax revenues at first blush I thought.
How in one year they're gonna make up the entire budget but this is over time so tell me what this tax revenue will meet your township.
It is over time in which it was -- when your average.
In terms of your government's very very hard veto in terms of taxes going up every year so this will actually allow us to stabilize taxes maybe even bring taxes down and million dollars a year to.
To town our size as a as a very big deal and they're being able to offer 14100 jobs is is really something absolutely amazing and for the kids are coming home from school this -- almost.
Guaranteed job you know for everyone in our town when that real for them as well.
And it's the mentioned that Amazon is saying.
The average salary -- -- it's -- 55000.
Dollars a year that's 2030% more they say -- the average retail jobs that's.
That's significant and that could create a nice ripple effect of the local economy absolutely these are great jobs and in addition to having great salaries are also offering a lot of -- employee stock options.
This is going to be a real opportunity for -- for a lot of people managers who desperately need them they are so many struggling municipalities.
Out there wouldn't it be nice if Amazon could just open a fulfillment picture in all of these.
I know you told us to explain my Robin still -- -- -- -- This fulfillment center this huge investment by Amazon but you -- advice for any other.

Process and that we brought in Mercedes-Benz and a number of fortune 500 coming companies up the credit to bringing Amazon's New Jersey really goes to Governor Christie but.
They're being able to have a good process really being able to bring people in town and explain.
Why these businesses should be able to be attracted to your town what you have to offer what you're going to be able to do for them it really is -- a sales perspective and government's not -- -- selling so.
You know that's something the -- really have to start doing I've got to get better really attracting these businesses to they have so many choices.
Well may indeed free thank you for joining shared -- township store we look forward to hearing how things come along -- Amazon breaks ground thanks so much -- -- that I have good afternoon thank different.

MINNEAPOLIS - Now that the United States Supreme Court has upheld the Affordable Care Act many are turning their attention to what's coming down the road in 2014 when some of the more controversial elements of the plan take effect.
"I think that was a surprise to a lot of people," University of Minnesota health economist Roger Feldman told KARE Thursday after the ruling.
The High Court's majority found that the individual mandate to buy health coverage is a constitutionally compatible use of the federal government's taxing power.
"They said if this law walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it must be a duck," Feldman remarked.
"This mandate, this penalty, is really a tax. And as such it's within the government's power to tax us and then give us rebates if we buy insurance," he said.
Some of the more popular elements of health reform are already in effect, including the provision that children can stay on a parent's health plan until age 26. The law also already barred insurers from denying coverage due to pre-existing conditions or placing lifetime caps on benefits.
Mandate and Penalties
The mandate is one of the facets of the bill that drew the most criticism, but was seen as the glue that held it together because it created a pool of younger, healthier customers.
"If you design a health insurance policy like that, and let people buy it whenever they want to, they won't buy insurance until they're sick and they need it and they get the good deal," Feldman explained.
"So the individual mandate was necessary in order to have people participate in the insurance pool before they became sick."
The penalty for not buying coverage in 2014 will be applied through the tax code, and will show up for the first time in 2015 when people go to file their 2014 tax returns. Feldman said the tax forms by then will probably required proof of insurance.
"An example is already in place in Massachusetts where people, when they file their state income taxes, submit that they have bought insurance," said Feldman. "The same thing will now be happening at the federal level."
The penalty will be $750 or two percent of annual income, whichever is greater, up to a maximum of $2,250. It is not clear yet whether the government will allow a grace period for tax filers who are caught off guard by the mandate.
"So if I'm making $100,000 and decide not to buy insurance I'll pay a $2,000 penalty. That will be close to the top of the penalty scale," Feldman said.
That penalty will be phased in over three years, and will be indexed afterward to the cost of living.
Subsidized Health Coverage
The flip side of that will be the subsidized plans sold through state insurance exchanges, such as the one being developed in Minnesota by the state Department of Commerce.
Those who earn as much as four times the federal poverty line will be able to purchase health coverage from private insurers in the exchange but at greatly discounted costs. Out-of-pocket costs will range from three percent of the actual premium to nine and a half percent, depending on the policy holder's income.
Persons earning just one and a half times the poverty rate will pay only three percent of the premium, with the remaining 97 percent picked up by the government working through the exchange.
"Now if I'm at that income level and a policy costs $15,000 a year for me and my family -- and I'm paying three percent of that -- that's $450 a year, a little bit less than $40 a month," Feldman said.
"That will be the choice for me if I'm in that position. Do I decide to pay $40 a month, which is a very good deal? Or do I decide to pay the penalty and opt out?"
Medicare Changes
The plan will be financed partly through savings achieved in Medicare, by reducing or slowing the growth of fees paid to medical providers for taking care of Medicare patients. In other words the Medicare program will be "kicking in" part of the cost of the new system.
"Seniors will continue to have Medicare with all its protections, and insurance and so-on, but the government is going to try to pull a little money out of that program," Feldman asserted.
"It may be the case that some doctors will decide the payments are so low that they won't take any Medicare customers any more. So you might not be able to keep seeing the doctor you wanted to see."
That is why "Medicare cuts" has become a staple of opposition speeches and advertising campaigns, because the government's goal is to spend less overall on Medicare while still keeping the program's menu of benefits intact.
Penalties for Employers
The availability of subsidized health plans, combined with rising costs of health coverage in the private market, will inevitably lead more employers to drop coverage for their workers. That will lead to a penalty as well, beginning in 2014.
"That penalty is designed to keep employers in the insurance game," said Feldman. "On the other hand, if the employer drops insurance and the workers go over and get subsidized policies in the exchange that could be a really good deal for the employees."
Companies that employ 50 or more workers will be penalized $2,000 for each employee not offered coverage each year, with the first 30 employees exempted from that total. That is substantially less expensive, however, than their share of them employee health plans in many cases.
Feldman and another economist are currently developing a model to predict what percentage of employers will drop coverage, and opt to pay the penalties instead. Their projections haven't been made public yet.
"If I had to speculate now I would say that some employers will drop insurance," he said.
"They'll be mostly middle-sized employers -- not the big ones, because they are the most committed to offer insurance. And not the small ones either, because they will be exempt from the penalties."
Businesses with fewer than 50 employees are exempt from the penalties, and some will qualify for tax credits designed to enable them to offer coverage.
Medicaid Opt In
The one part of the Affordable Care Act deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court's majority was the expansion of Medicaid. That program, generally for those with incomes lower than one and a half times the poverty line, was projected to add 15 million people to the ranks of the insured.
The build-out of the Medicaid program would've been a financial burden state governments because they typically pay half of the costs of covering people enrolled in the program. But, even in striking down the Medicaid explansion, the Supreme Court ruling allowed states that choose to opt into the program to do so.
Gov. Mark Dayton of Minnesota, acting through an executive order in 2011, applied to the federal government for an early opt-in to Medicaid. That allowed the state to move some of the people enrolled state-funded health programs into Medicaid, allowing the cost of that care to be split with the federal government.

The first question:
Osho,Freedom can be willed, love not. Please comment.
Freedom can be willed because it is your own decision to remain in a prison. It is your own responsibility. You have willed your slavery, you have decided to remain a slave, hence you are a slave. Change the decision, and the slavery disappears.
You have invested in your unfreedom. Any moment you see the point, you can drop it; instantly it can be dropped. Nobody has forced unfreedom on you, it is your choice. You can choose to be free, you can choose to be unfree; you are so free that you can choose either. This is part of your inner freedom – not to choose it is part of your freedom. Hence it can be willed.
But love cannot be willed. Love is a by-product of freedom; it is the overflowing joy of freedom, it is the fragrance of freedom. First the freedom has to be there, then love follows. If you try to will love, you will create only something artificial, arbitrary. A willed love will not be true love, it will be phony.
And that's what people are doing. Love cannot be willed, and they go on willing it. What can be willed: freedom, they go on ignoring. They go on thinking that somebody else is responsible for their slavery and their life of slavery. This is a very topsy-turvy conception of your own life. You are upside-down.
Change the vision. Will freedom, and love will come of its own accord. When love comes on its own accord only then is it beautiful, because only then is it natural, spontaneous.
Willed love will be a kind of acting. You will be pretending – what else can you do? You will be moving through empty gestures – what else is possible? You cannot be ordered to love somebody, you cannot order yourself to love somebody. If it is not there, it is not there; if it is there, it is there. It is something beyond your will. In fact it is just the opposite of will: it is surrender.
When one is totally dissolved into freedom and when one is really free, the ego disappears. The ego is your bondage, the ego is your prison. In total freedom there is no ego found. Surrender happens, you start feeling one with existence – and that oneness brings love.
The second question:
Osho,Many see the work that goes on around you as a model for the holistic approach to life. Please talk about this.

The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE - Jon Jay homered and drove in the go-ahead run in the ninth, and Allen Craig and Daniel Descalso hit home runs to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 7-6 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday.
Former Pinecrest High School and East Carolina star Seth Maness (1-0) earned his first major league win. Edward Mujica pitched the ninth for his eighth save.
Shane Robinson singled to center and then took second on center fielder Carlos Gomez's fielding error. Robinson stole third and then scored when Jay singled up the middle off Jim Henderson (2-1) for the last lead change in a back-and-forth game.
Jay hit a three-run home run in the second, Craig connected for a solo shot in the sixth, and Descalso put the Cardinals ahead with a two-run homer in the seventh.
The Brewers trailed by one in the eighth when they got one-out singles that put runners on the corners. Cardinals manager Mike Matheny brought in Randy Choate. Norichika Aoki dropped a perfect bunt down as pinch-runner Jeff Bianchi raced home and slide feet first, avoiding catcher Yadier Molina's tag.
Maness came on and got the Cardinals out of the jam, getting Jean Segura to hit into a double play.
Cardinals Manager Mike Matheny turned to Maness because of a thin bullpen, but also the Cardinals manager believed that he could do the job.
"He got the ball down and got the big double play in the eighth," Matheny said. "That was huge. We have a few of those guys that really don't fall into traps when the intensity gets higher. They just make their pitches.
"He's proving to be one of those guys," Matheny said of the relievers that can handle the pressure.
Maness made his major-league debut Friday, throwing a perfect eighth inning.

Origins News Round-up for December 6, 2013
This week's Origins News Roundup features highlights from a recent conference of evangelical theologians, exciting human fossil finds, tell-tale lice, and a few words from the Pope.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
This week's Origins News Roundup features highlights from a recent conference of evangelical theologians, exciting human fossil finds, tell-tale lice, and a few words from the Pope.
"It's tempting to think that the church needs to decide quickly which of these [original sin] scenarios is right, and which ones must be wrong. I believe the church is better served by taking its time, holding several different scenarios in tension for a while as we think through the implications of each."
In this series, James Kidder provides an intriguing study on transitional fossils and the evolutionary history of modern humans. He begins by discussing the fossil record, explaining how new forms are classified. He then explains the physically distinguishing trait of humankind—bipedalism. From the discovery of Ardipithecus, the earliest known hominin, to the australopithecines, the most prolific hominin, Kidder focuses on the discovery, the anatomy, and the interpretation of these ancestral remains.
These excerpts from Origins: Christian Perspectives on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design, written by BioLogos president Deborah Haarsma and her husband Loren Haarsma, offer a sampling of the book's many topics, from exploring our disagreements and agreements on origins as Christians to explaining scientific processes to looking at how we read Genesis.
Christian theology asserts that humans are spiritual creatures, a unity of body and spirit or "soul," integrated, not reducible downwards to mere matter or upwards to mere spirit.
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
A common argument leveled against the theory of evolution is that scientists have not been able to produce transitional fossils that show the change of one species into another. In this podcast, we address a common misconception about what transitional fossils actually are.
Augustine had a great deal to say about those chapters in Genesis that are especially controversial within Christianity today.
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
If God himself is willing to die, particularly in such a gruesome way, then perhaps we should at least consider the possibility of God allowing the death of other creatures, too. But would this really be compatible with what we know of God through Scripture?
In this talk, originally delivered at the BioLogos President's Circle meeting in October 2012, Dr. John Walton discusses the origin stories of Genesis 1-3, and why their focus on function and archetypes mean there is no Biblical narrative of material origins.
Many people assume that until Darwin came along, devout Christians everywhere read and understood Genesis in the same way. But Dr. Pak points out that some of the most revered figures in Christian history--Origen, Augustine, Aquinas, Luther, and Calvin--offered insightful but distinctive interpretations of the text that are often overlooked today. First presented at a symposium in Raleigh, NC, Dr. Pak's paper is presented here as a three part series.
We find no compelling evidence that the earth's geological features can be explained by a global Flood. Here we consider three lines of evidence: global salt deposits, the order of deposition of sediment layers in the Grand Canyon, and the sequence of fossils in geological strata.
The Denisovans, an extinct hominid group that interbred with modern humans, made the news again lately with the publication of a more detailed study of their genome. One of the many interesting findings was that the Denisovans share the same chromosome 2 fusion that modern humans have.
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."
The BioLogos Forum is pleased to present this infographic about the current anthropological understanding of human evolution, which takes into account research into both physiological and cultural developments among our ancient ancestors.
This BioLogos videocast addresses the age of recently discovered hominid fossils and how scientists are able to obtain those dates.
The related ideas of the "fixity of species" and "natural kinds" have been prominent in the science and faith conversation. Some Christians take Genesis to mean that God created (bara) fixed species (mîn). But does the text truly indicate such a concept? Biblical scholar Dr. Richard Hess looks at the Biblical context and meaning of the Hebrew mîn, and suggests that when Christians use it to frame our understanding of the entire created order, we may be asking too much of this single word.
There are two opposite errors which need to be countered about the fossil record: 1) that it is so incomplete as to be of no value in interpreting patterns and trends in the history of life, and 2) that it is so good that we should expect a relatively complete record of the details of evolutionary transitions within all or most lineages.

It has the colors of nature, without all the technical "artistic" details (sticks and leaves) that clutter other camouflage patterns.

The Law of Gravity: A distinct vertical orientation, just as in nature.
The Law of Shadows: None in the pattern; only natural shadows allowed.
The Law of Open: Broad designs, blurry edges. You blend at close range, and don't become a ''blob'' at distance.

i'm a bow-hunter in the dense woods of Oregon, sound is a big issue with me, so are these pants dead quiet like fleece & cotton? or more like denim? thanks!Answers
Very quiet. Like fleece but seems like a stronger material, also a great wind blocker .A:
They are quieter than denim, but are not silent. They run a little bulky... not too bad, but definitely not tight. I use them for predator hunting as well as upland bird (quail/turkey). They are a good cheap pant.1 of 1

Ben worries that an innocent conversation with Derek could end up causing problems for Bailey; Cristina turns to Shane as tension with Meredith increases; April's upcoming wedding creates an uncomfortable situation for Stephanie and Jackson.
As Callie is faced with a malpractice suit, her supportive father (Hector Elizondo) visits and shares a secret; past details about Callie and Arizona's marriage are revealed.
A betrayal intensifies the issues between Cristina and Meredith; Matthew and April make a decision about their relationship; Bailey faces difficulties with Ben's return.
Costumed patients create a challenge for the doctors; Derek and Ben work on a new surgical technique; Richard asks a resident to perform his next surgery, angering Bailey.
Callie and Derek collaborate on a brain mapping project; Meredith thinks about continuing her mom's research; Shane's guilt persists.
Meredith struggles to balance her roles as a surgeon and a mother when she returns to work; Stephanie tries to impress Jackson's mother; Jo becomes overly involved with a patient.
The doctors put together a fundraising gala; Bailey must face several difficult patients; Shane and Stephanie take care of the busy ER on their own; Alex opens up to Jo.
Derek and Meredith adjust to life at home with their newborn; Arizona tries to repair her marriage; Jackson and Owen clash over financial issues.
Callie makes a decision about her relationship; the doctors receive devastating news.
Following the storm, a mudslide injures first responders and citizens; Meredith faces a decision that will impact a loved one; Callie is rocked by Arizona's infidelity.
This Season Pass includes all current episodes and will include future episodes after broadcast date as they become available. The medical drama, moving into its tenth season, follows the personal and professional lives of a group of doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital in Seattle as they deal with the lives of their patients and their relationships with each other.
As the storm rages, patients are brought to the hospital by the busload and resources dwindle.
The doctors prepare for a superstorm headed for Seattle.
Bailey continues to shut everyone out; Owen worries that Ethan could end up in foster care; a new craniofacial specialist comes to the hospital to work on a young patient; a magician's assistant needs medical attention after a trick goes awry.

Alex confronts his father.
Even after his death, Mark is still speaking to Jackson.
To everyone's surprise, Jackson finally declares his love for April.
These two are going to have a hard time forgiving each other after this.
Today is not the day for Meredith and Cristina to reconcile.
Shock to the System
Heart-Shaped Box
Like Richard, Bailey has a disease that can't be cured. Richard's speech does the trick and Bailey takes the first step to reclaim her place in OR.
Since they're good, Matthew tells Jackson he should come to the wedding. It would mean a lot to April if he were there.
April has put up with a lot since her sisters' arrival, but the teasing is the last straw. She fires them and appoints her friends from Grey + Sloan as her new bridesmaids.
Shane's courage with Meredith really left an impression with Cristina. Shane can finish his "extra credit" while they wait for the 3D model to finish.
Jimmy didn't recognize his son until he got punched at the bar. Alex doesn't care about that or the fact he's going through withdrawal, he wants him out.

Blu & Exile are my favourite duo in music. I have written about their record Below the Heavens before on the youngers blog. Blu really takes you on a journey in this song and it grips me in my seat for 4 enjoyable minutes. Blu's last verse is simply sublime and rounds off a near perfect song. Enjoy below.

- Top Chef Nick: Oven Thief? Wed 10/9c
NeNe went on to say she doesn't care about us ladies and what we do doesn't mean anything to her, so I'm not sure why she feels the need to tweet "Kim rents her house." NeNe has never owned a home in her life, and she wants to talk about my living situation? No ma'am!
Kroy was a free agent, and we already own two homes that didn't have the space we wanted for our growing family, so we rented until we knew if he was staying in Atlanta. Now that we know he is, we're buying! It's called being a smart business woman.
Kim marrying into money doesn't give you class....just sayin
i agree, kpbluz2, i thought that was sooo disrespectful that she treats her mom & dad the way she does. you better look out cos ur going to reap wut u sow ms thang. u don't have to disrespect them that way. i like u but when u do that i get a different feeling about u. and kroy needs to shut his mouth, keep his mouth out of family business he is just comin on the scene. he don' disrespect is mom & dad that i can c so he don't need to do that to his in laws stay out of it and let them work it out. i think if kroy did not have any money kim would not even b bothered with him. kroy's mom only sent kj kroy's old stuffed aimals and i did not c here being disrespectful on that. people dont have to do anything for u just because it's yur birthday however, if they do decide to then it is a blessing, it is their money they can do whateva they want to. all she cares abou is money money money. that is going be her downfall one of these days. kroys parents did not want him to marry kim, sometimes, parents knows best, and i know they saw something in kim that made them cringe, she is a gold digger to the max, all she wants is for someone to be doing things for her.she can't even see about her kids by herself, she is lazy as heck. her cell rings and she wants kroy to c who it is, answer yur own fone, she acts like everyone is her servant like somebod owes her something, like she is entitled to something. i can't believe people let her get away with that. what is she reall teaching those girls that they don't have to work and they can find some rich man to take care of them. and whatshe does have going on now, with the wine, that is something she does everyday, drinking her dumb life away, not healthy at all. we wil see how that mariage turns out and see if kroy's family was right about her.....
Kim, please explain the very nasty comments you made when Kandi showed you her house. Why couldn't you just be happy for her? Do you really think you are so much better than her that you have to put down something she was excited about, proud of and happy about. I was on the fence before about you, but you are constantly proving that you have no class and that you don't consider Kandi your friend. After all she has done for you, your repayment in comments speaks volumes.
Ok Kim. I'm so upset you down your mom and dads income.. They are a complete blessing just to be alive.. Whatever gift they send their grand son is a blessing.. So be careful what you say... Cause things can change at a moment notice.! And you were hating about Kandi's home.. It showed
Kim I can't imagine how Kroy's parents must feel having you for a daughter in law! Kroy is young enough to have several more years of football, but I predict you will piss away his earnings in no time! You are frivelous to say the least! You probably do owe your decorater/landlord for her services, and should have just paid your bill! That certainly would be cheaper than the cost of moving! Stupid!! The way you speak about your parents' finances is disgusting!! Paying Sweeny is a complete waste of money! She is a lazy, stupid and a mooch!! Why do you even need an assistant? You don't own a business, or even work at all for that matter! Good grief!! How embarrassed your and Kroy's parents must be by you!
There was a part of the program last night that made me think of my 9 year of son because it was so sweet. KJ received stuffed animals from your in-laws that were Kroy's growing up. Kroy picked up the animal and put it to his face and sniffed it. My son has been doing that since he was a baby. My husband says that he should part with the bear because it will go up a flag poll when he goes to college. It's nice to know at 27 the boys still have a piece of home and mom which is his bear.
Thank you,
PS Peter is a tight end for the Grafton Chiefs in Grafton.
Kim, what kind of breed is the little dog that you have? I would love to know.
It has always been my experience when someone will not let you talk, they do not care what you have to say. I feel that if you have to fight to have a conversation there is not anything they have to say that I care about. I guess this does not fit with the theme of the show, but it is not near as exhausting. I am happy to see the changes in your life. You seem really happy. Maybe having a new husband and baby....you seem to be more calm and much more focused on your family. You are letting a lot more roll off your back.....you go girl!!!!!
Kim First I am happy for all the good things happening for you. Second who the hell cares if you rent your home we don't we are just glad you have a place to live and you seem to be happy. Third I know you and NeNe are on the outs and that is cool and I can see that you two can't be friends-but as a mom how can you say that what the housewife formely known as Sheree was not wrong-yeah the kid was wrong for what he did but a mom can do her best to raise her child the correct way and they can still go off and act a fool-there are things I did at that age that had my mother known she would have been floored-she taught me better I just choose at that time to act stupid-shame on you for not seeing past the fact that you and Ne Ne are no longer friends to stand up for what is right- I was pissed at you but KJ is so cute and I couldn't stay mad long! LOL
Oh come on, Kim. Sheree was insulting about Nene's son. Just like Nene was insulting your children. Don't defend Sheree on this one. Both of them were wrong.
Yes, Nene is childish, pathetic and a complete hypocrite. In some way, you all contradict yourselves just as normal people do.
Love Love Love You!!!!!!!!!! Even my husband watches with me and you crack him up :) Soooo much drama this season. It do wish that one day you and Nene could be friends again. You both did have a great dynamic together, you know b4 she threatened you time and time again. But I believe that is her defense mechanism. Wishing you and your family well :)
Like NeNe said so eloquently, People of all walks of life face problems outside of their control and kids is one of them. What part of that don't you understand. Your trying to defend you BFF Sheree, her statement shows she's desperate and need to hurt NeNe in anyway she can. We'll be watching to see how long this love relationship last between you two. She's not to be trusted. You and NeNe on the other hand need to speak and be Cordial with one another. I do think (she) NeNe need to apologize the way she treated you on the bus and at your friends home. I am a fan of hers but the truth is the truth.
NeNe follows the motto, do as i say not as i do. She's very confused and loud!! Congrats on everything that's going on in your life! How can we get her off the show?
Kim, Do not let Nene's trash talking get to you....The fans of the show can read the newspapers and we are wise to Nene...LOL
Kim, you claim to hate Nene so, but you can't seem to have a conversation on camera, off camera or on your blog, without mentioning her name. You & Sheree are the most miserable people on the show. All the 2 of you do is talk about people & when someone talks back about you, they've committed the biggest sin this side of the Mississippi. Sheree tried to get back at Nene about her "Neverland" by bringing her son into the discussion. She WAS talking about her child. I admit that Nene shouldn't have tweeted anything about your children but I'm quite sure that you've tweeted plenty about her. So please stop trying to play the victim all the time, because you're not. You & Sheree need to get over yourselves and both of you really need to get a life & a clue.
Kim you Have a lot to say about a lot of people.If Kandi is your friend why all the harsh comments about her house.you made yourself look like a hater.
Kim I love ya! You are by far my favorite person on the show! I love that you dont let that loudmouth NeNe get to you! You ARE a smart with your money, unlike a lot of these woman that do the Housewives shows! Good for you! Your family is sweet and your husband isnt bad to look at either! Haha
I have to admit, the only reason I watch RHOA is because of you. I fast forward through all the other drama with those other so called women until your segments come on. So glad you are finally getting your own spin off so I can actually watch the whole episode. Keep your head up! You have actually grown with each season. Yes, in the beginning you were a hot mess like the rest of them but over the years we have seen you run after BP, run away from BP, have all the money you need, have no money, find love and continue growing your family. Don't sink to their level on the reunion show or any other time! Stay classy, Kim, and keep going in the direction you are going, UP!
What is BP? Kim is so classy that she used kandi for a hit song and then didn't pay her, then came to her house and made many mean comments on kandi's house that she paid Cash for no RENT,no mortgage payments cash.
Love you Kim! I can bet you have more money than Nene. Nene is so rich but so unhappy. Nene needs a song that say being rich makes you miserable, or money can't buy happiness.
Kim, I think you were very smart and classy on the reunion show. People who are smart and intelligent shouldnt believe a word NeNe says. Infact, you should feel no reason to defend your housing situation. Also, Congrats on your pregnancy.
I don't understand why anyone needs to 'explain" why they are renting. It's no one's business but yours and Kroys. Period. NeNe likes to think she is above everyone else. Interesting that she criticizes you and your PAST relationship when she preens and giggles when her "business partner" gives her expensive gifts.
Nene opens her mouth and hate pours out of it. She is a viper. I am glad you stood up to her. Best wishes.
Good blog Kim, You are a woman who has learned to "use what you got, to get what you want", I ain't mad at you. Behind the boobs and the wigs lies a very astute mind, work it. As I recall Nene had to convince the producers to add you to the cast, just saying.
Blah, blah, blah!. You can ditch it out, but you can't take it. Who care if your house is rented? It is all irrelevant. You look for reasons to argue with Nene to get more spotlight time. Both you and Sheree had a plan to antagonize NeNe at the reunion, but it backfired! She check you and Ms. "Who Going To Check Me Boo". LOLx3 and sill LMFAO! You two were the only ones making snide remarks under your breath, as if no one heard you. You looked childish, stupid and jealous. You ladies are all to old to act and speak the way you do! Not caring how low life you appear. What give you the right to talk trash about Marlo, Nene or any other person for that matter. Over the years you have proudly flaunt your lifestyle of living off Big Poppa, but you have the audacity to criticze Marlo! Take off the rose colored glasses that you have worn 24/7 since trapping Kroy. Oh by the way, you were caught on camera bragging about the furniture in storage. You know the funiture Big Poppa bought? Nene was right. There is a difference between dumb and smart. The viewers are ccertainly not dumb or blind. Cameras don't lie and VCRs are still operable girlfriend.
I hadn't watched RHWOA much until this season. Guess we live just a little bit from there and I like watching what I don't know about. But I have to say Kim I really like you and I'm happy for you! Your girls are adorable!! And KJ is PERFECTION in human form!! I know the black girlfriends I have when they get started with anyone I can't hold a candle to how the slice them up with words!! I don't have that ability. Wish I did! But honey you do! You hang right in there and even out talk NeNe at times. As my best girlfriend would say, "YOU GO GIRL!" I find most women hard to be around much, it's hard for some reason for women to be truly happy for each other. I wish it wasn't that way.
maybe you need new black girlfriends LOL but dead serious . nobody should be in any toxic relationship. Kim is o.k. sometimes and many times two faced. If you are continuously falling out with friends over money then the problem may be you.
Kim you have so outgrown this show and these women. Out of everyone on all the housewives shows you are my absolute fav! I'm so happy for you and your family. Remember to let the haters hate, they make you famous. Can't wait to see your wedding show!!!
Hey Kim!! Not to worry, NeNe is sooooo jealous of your new life she cannot stand it!
I wish you and yours the best!!
Kim, Kim, Kim... I am very shocked as to how you have hopped on the Sheree train. She was wrong point blank to bring up NeNe's son and his shoplifting incident. That has nothing to do with a person saying or being rich. He is grown and chose to make some unwise decisions. You have rich and famous people i.e. Wynona Rider who have stolen so whats your point. Whateva happened between that argument with NeNe and Sheree had nothing to do with you so for you to chime in and say something was petty. As far a NeNe talking about you renting your house, you said out your own mouth (rewatch the season) that you brought that house. Thats when NeNe tweeted about you renting. So dont get mad when someone calls you on your b.s. cuz you do it to everyone else. If you are the bigger person then be that, you dont have to go tit for tat. Kim I really hoped that you and NeNe would work out your differences but as long as you have broke by Sheree in your ear its going to ruin alot of your friendships i.e. Kandi. Well blessings and love in all you do.
I will say one thing about Kim---- she is the ONLY one of the original cast that always had her finances together. She has never been in the news for financial issues.
Jealousy doesn't look good on you! Your entire blog is referring to Nene, get a life. Stop trying to include yourself in Nene & Sheree's beef, in order to make yourself relevant. Nene had absolutely nothing to say to you on the reunion show, until you butted into the conversation. Sheree wasn't talking about Brison? Yea right, we all saw the reunion. So glad Nene shut you & Sheree down. Sheree is a grown woman, let her speak for herself, Geeshh. Why does it bother you because Nene says she's rich? You wouldn't mind if Kandi says she's rich, only if Nene says it. I guess jealousy kicks in when your enemy is doing better than you. Oh & by the way, rumor has it Sheree was fired, no need to be her spokeswoman now LOL.
I don't know why you are even lowering down to Nene's level and explaining your living situation. You should know by now that both Nene and Marlo are going to hate on you BIG time! You found love, your family is growing and you are moving forward with so much personal success, its going to drive them CRAZY! LOL Don't ever stoop to their level.
No need to explain why you rent your house. It's pretty clear that Nene is miserable and wants you ladies miserable as well. Whenever any of you talked about your success (be proud of it!) she rolled her eyes. It's obvious she just doesn't know how to be happy for others. I wish you and Kroy a happy life together and hope you have another beautiful healthy baby! Can't wait for Tardy for the Wedding!!
LOVE you Kim!!! You have been my favorite cast member since day one! Much more likeable to other viewers this season! Love your songs as well! Definitely an inspiration to pursue music. Stay above the dram and do you!
Was Sheree insinuating that only poor people steal? Some of the biggest thieves in this planet are rich high class people. Many of them never pay for that. Anyway, parents cannot stop their children from doing brainless acts. Most importantly I don't like NeNe, but what her boy did does not have anything to do with anything.
Team Pheadra. :)
awwww Kim Bierman! the name fits you so so well!!! i love you and kroy together you are absolutely adorable. i have seen you grow and change from season to season and kroy really does complete you. i love how openly you talk about big papa with him and how he love's you "the whole package" LOL and he adore's your daughters and they adore him. keep it up girl! i am so happy you have your own show now. you are the only reason i watch RHOA i dont care about the other girls they are boring! Especially cynthia there is never anything exciting about her storylines...much love here!!!!
You don't need to explain whether you rent or own your home. I don't see why NeNe thinks it's a big deal anyway.....lots of people rent. Nothing wrong with that.
I think Ne Ne has it going on. Kim, Shree and yes Kandi all find time to talk about NeNe. NeNe has her mind on money and money on her mind. do not hate
The real issue should be addressed. Children steal b/c they feel they were deprived of something they feel they deserved. It is their way of making up for it. With respect I say, don't turn around and make this about yourselves.
Kim, So happy you have found happines, I wish you all the best. I enjoy you much more this season than any of the past, true love and a new baby does you justice. Having said that I don't get the phony looking BFF roles between you and wig pulling Sheree. Don't debase yourself by defending that delussional wannabe.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Nene's son an adult who chooses to be on the show? How does this make him off limits?
Ok so yes, Sheree WAS talking about NeNe's son. Just as you feel that NeNe was tweeting about your children. Sorry, but there is no difference.
But, I am happy for you and Kroy.
you are awesome. you seem to have "grown" since the show started but still seem to be a blast to hang out with. You always have straight answers for things you are asked and confront people with things you hear. Can't wait to see your new show...Best of luck with everything!!!
Just saw a preview of the 2nd part of the reunion. My advice to you is to retain Phaedra and sue Marlo. Someone like her needs to be taught a lesson. I hope you're the one to do it.

These statements reflect the fundamental belief that intraprofessional collaboration provides a more comprehensive service system to children, families, clients, students, and institutions than individual disciplines acting in isolation. The administration and faculty of this College believe that it is important to actively uphold the following standards of ethical conduct throughout their careers:
Honoring, and dignifying ourselves and others; Valuing differences among and between us; Advocating for and acting to attain social justice; Using discretion vested in the privileges of our positions appropriately; Performing our jobs at the highest standard; Upholding the trust of those with whom we work; Respecting the work of other professionals.
Individually, in order that others may know who I am, what I believe, and know of my works, I, with all others here, will be accountable for the privileges and responsibilities that accompany my membership in the College of Education and Human Services.

"The one who is coming after me is stronger than I am. I'm not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire."
Ministry of John the Baptist
3 In those days John the Baptist appeared in the desert of Judea announcing, 2 " Change your hearts and lives! Here comes the kingdom of heaven! " 3 He was the one of whom Isaiah the prophet spoke when he said:
4 John wore clothes made of camel's hair, with a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
5 People from Jerusalem, throughout Judea, and all around the Jordan River came to him. 6 As they confessed their sins, he baptized them in the Jordan River. 7 Many Pharisees and Sadducees came to be baptized by John. He said to them, " You children of snakes! Who warned you to escape from the angry judgment that is coming soon? 8 Produce fruit that shows you have changed your hearts and lives. 9 And don't even think about saying to yourselves, Abraham is our father. I tell you that God is able to raise up Abraham's children from these stones. 10 The ax is already at the root of the trees. Therefore, every tree that doesn't produce good fruit will be chopped down and tossed into the fire. 11 I baptize with water those of you who have changed your hearts and lives. The one who is coming after me is stronger than I am. I'm not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. 12 The shovel he uses to sift the wheat from the husks is in his hands. He will clean out his threshing area and bring the wheat into his barn. But he will burn the husks with a fire that can't be put out. "

CNET Editors' review
WinRAR is a lightweight, flexible, and easy-to-use archiving utility that can unpack most archive formats, as well as compress to both RAR and ZIP. Free to try for 40 days ($29 for single license), WinRAR is a top dog in the compression category.
WinRAR's interface is about as simple as it gets. Start creating (or add to) an archive by dragging and dropping your files into the interface or by browsing through the Folder Tree side panel (when enabled). From there, the most common functions are laid out in the form of colorful, mostly intuitive icons along the top, which can all be customized by downloading themes from the company's Web site. You can Add files to, Extract, Test, Delete, or even Repair archives right from the main interface. Drop-down menus house the program's more advanced features, including self-extracting archives, archive locking, benchmarking, and autodeletion of temp files.
WinRAR - Compress files and unpack archives - Download Video Previews
With WinRAR, both creating and unpacking archives is blazingly fast. And according to WinRAR's developers, the most recent version of the program takes advantage of multicore processors to achieve even faster compressions rates, depending on your hardware profile. It is worth noting, however, that these speed boosts do use up a significant chunk of RAM (approximately 120 MB). Compression ratios vary depending on file type, but in general seem on par with or better than other archiving programs.
Overall, WinRAR is a winner because of its speed, simple interface, flexibility with file formats, and powerful advanced features. If you're looking for a one-stop archiving shop, look no further.
Publisher's Description

"Every bit as good as the 64-bit version."
Version: WinRAR (32-bit) 5.01
I have used the 64-bit version and liked it for several years. I recently installed this 32-bit version on a new Windows 8 32-bit tablet. Installation and subsequent operation have been flawless.
None. Install it and it is there when you need it.
One of the first things to put on a new 32-bit computer.

I really like this program, but not everybody knows about it.
I really like this program, but not everybody knows about it.
I really like this program, but not everybody knows about it.
"I'm a raving fan of this program"
Version: WinRAR (32-bit) 5.01
I've been using WinRAR for many years. It never failed me once.
It also doesn't have that "cute until it hurts" WinZip interface.
RAR is an excellent compression format - compresses far better than WinZip. Simply outstanding.
"Best File Compression tool"
Version: WinRAR (32-bit) 5.01
I really like this program, but not everybody knows about it.
This means that when you make a .RAR file, you must be ready to answer everybody's question of "what do I do with a .RAR file?"
I really like this tool, and I wish everybody else used it too; it's much better than ZIP compression (which WinRAR also supports, in case you want to make a ZIP file instead of a RAR file).

H1N1 flu, sometimes called swine flu, is an infection caused by a kind of influenza virus that spreads from one person to another. In 2009, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported an outbreak of this strain of flu in Mexico, the United States, and other countries. The virus that causes this type of flu is the H1N1 virus.
When you have H1N1 flu, you may feel tired and achy and have a sore throat, a fever, and a cough. Most of the time, the illness is not serious. But in some cases H1N1 flu can be severe and can lead to pneumonia, serious lung problems, and death.
Health Tools help you make wise health decisions or take action to improve your health.
H1N1 flu is caused by the H1N1 influenza virus. At first, experts thought that the virus was spread from pigs to people. But they later found that H1N1 flu is caused by a new virus. After a person is infected, he or she may spread the flu to other people by coughing or sneezing.
Drops from a cough or sneeze from an infected person can move through the air. Breathing them in can make you sick. You can also get infected by touching something with the flu virus on it, such as a desk or counter, and then touching your mouth or nose.
You can't get H1N1 flu from eating pork.
The symptoms of H1N1 flu are a lot like the regular seasonal flu. They can include:
Some people also have vomiting and diarrhea. Most of the time, the illness is not serious. But in some cases, H1N1 flu can be severe and can lead to pneumonia, serious lung problems, and death.
Some people are more likely to have serious problems from H1N1 flu, including:
Incubation and contagious periods
The time between getting infected with H1N1 virus and feeling sick (called the incubation period) is usually about 2 days but can be from 1 to 7 days.1 You can infect others starting 1 day before your symptoms start. And you may infect others up to 12 days after you get sick, although most people are infectious for about 6 days.1
For your child
Call 911 or other emergency services if:
Call your doctor now or seek immediate medical care if your child:
For you
Call your doctor now or seek immediate medical care if you:
If you think you have the symptoms of H1N1 flu or are worried that you have been exposed to the virus, call your doctor or go to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website (www.cdc.gov/H1N1flu) for more information on what to do.
If your doctor thinks you have H1N1 flu, he or she will do a physical exam and ask you questions about your symptoms and past health.
Your doctor may also take a nasal swab to do a culture or PCR test for the virus. If one of these tests is needed, it is usually done within the first 4 or 5 days of illness.
If you get sick:
If you are infected with H1N1 flu, you can infect others starting 1 day before your symptoms start. It's also possible that you may infect others up to 12 days after you get sick, although most people are infectious for about 6 days.1 To avoid spreading the flu to others during this time:
The flu vaccine can help prevent you from getting H1N1 flu. The vaccine helps the body build immunity against the H1N1 flu virus. The vaccine causes your immune system to make antibodies. Then if you are exposed to the flu later, the antibodies can attack and destroy the virus. People who most need the vaccine include:2
There are two types of the flu vaccine: a shot, and a nasal spray that you breathe in through your nose. The nasal spray vaccine cannot be given to pregnant women and people with certain health problems, because it contains a weakened but live form of the virus. But these groups can get the flu shot. Check with your doctor or local health department to find out which type of vaccine is best for you.
Here are some other things you can do to keep from getting sick:
These organizations are studying and keeping track of H1N1 flu, including what is being done to prevent its spread. Their websites have the most up-to-date information about H1N1 flu:
Flu.gov is a website sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The site provides information about the flu, including seasonal flu, H1N1 (swine) flu, and avian (bird) flu. It offers answers to frequently asked questions, and it has special sections for older adults, caregivers, travelers, pregnant women, and health professionals. The website also offers guidance on vaccinations.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is an agency of the United Nations. It has about 200 member states. WHO promotes technical cooperation among nations on health issues, carries out programs to control and eliminate disease, and strives to improve the quality of human life.
The Web site has information on many health topics, including health and disease related to travel.

SYRACUSE (AP) -- The New York Air National Guard's Syracuse-based 174th Fighter Wing has become the 174th Attack Wing.
The name change was made official during a ceremony at Hancock Field on Sunday and reflects the unit's switch from flying fighter aircraft to operating remotely piloted drones.
The name change comes nearly three years after the unit started operating MQ-9 Reaper unmanned aircraft from Hancock Field. The unmanned aircraft support military operations in Afghanistan.
The fighter wing launched its last flight of F-16 fighter aircraft in March 2010.
