A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER FOR THE JEWISH HOME Devoted to American and Jezvish Ideals VOLUME XV—No. 104. COT.UMBUS, OHIO, DECliMllKR 23, 1932 Per Year $3.00; Per Copy loc By the Way By David Schwartz A. Goldberg Is Elected Pres¬ ident of The Columbus Hebrew School FastinK for Progress A member of the faculty of City College is hnni^'^er-striking as this is being writ¬ ten, in protect against anti-Jewish dis¬ turbances in Polish Universities—and ni.-my things arc buinf,' sairl about the viir- fiity instmclnr. 1 do not propose to express .-m opinion about the personid aspects. Who shall say \yhat :(re the nsotives that actuate an individual in sucli a matter—-or any liiat- tur. lint a story comes to mind, with regard to the general proposition of the professor—that of dying for his cause. It is a story that is related of the late \ Daniel DcLeon. A Little Anecdote DcLcon, as you may or may not re- niendicr, was one of the pioneer American -Socialists. Although ")ne of the earliest, he w:is also probably the most original force that Ainericlm Socialism has'pro¬ duced. No less a person than Lenin ad¬ mitted the dccii influence that DeLeon had exerted oit him. Well, to come to the .story—DcLcon started his radical career as a Populist hack in the eighties. One day DeLeon delivered a very,force¬ ful address before a gathering of Popu¬ list farmers in some western states. After the speech was finished,'one whis- kered Populist farmer arose and said: "Mr. Del-eouj thiit is a very beautiful s|)ccch you made, but I want to ask you— woidd yon die for the cause?"' "My friend", replied DeLeon "one live man for tlie cause is worth a thousand <lcad liien." Why Disraeli Loved One ijf the strangest romantic episodes of history was that of Benjamin Disraeli and his wife. . The brilliant Dizzy, as you renienibcr, married a woman some fifteen or twenty years older than he was—and was deeply nttaclied to her. That does not pas.s comprehension if the woman Is of some superior sort. , But Disraeli's wife was not of the superior sort. A very simple woman indee<l. What was it then that evoked the precious emotion of love In Disraeli's case. Love and Lucre The answer which every one will give is that-hi.s wife brought him .a-fortune. She was a woman of great" wealth. \\'ell, that might explain why Disraeli married her, but does that explain why Disraeli loved her? , Comes'now Kertrand Riis.sell and an¬ swers in the affirmative. He offers the uniijue theory that money may not only bring marriage, not only the semblance of love, but love itself. Russell goes into a long winded dissertation to prove his point, but it may perhaps be boiled down briefly to this—that the poor individual marrying a wealthy individual finds h self ¦ suffused with gratitude for all the comforts and luxuries' that the wealthier person has provided, and that tbis grati tnde through some mystic metamorphosis, is distilled into nothing but tbe .spirits of purest love. , Rus.'jell says that it is regrettable !that' this shouldbe so, but it nevertheless very frcfjiiently is so. ... And so he adds Disraeli was very grateful to the woman who made his great imlitical career possible, and this emotion turned to loVe.. That Wenllhy Aura " Heing a psychologist myself—as evury-^ . one these days is—-1 offer an additional reason why it is easier to love the rich. It is that wealth gives one an assured feeling—a feeling of being at Iionie in the universe—of being secure and Unafraid. -AihI a person with that feeling has an aura about him that is not unattractive. . Kindness Through Anger Por' some time, our friends Winehell antl Ben Bcrnie have been .waging what seemed to be a very nasty personal battle. The things that they have been saying about each other in theii* radio broad¬ casts, and Winehell in his column, have not been such as can be rcprotluccd in a ¦ respectable column of this nature. But now, it turns out—it is all a hoax. Just a game the two are playing at seeing how nasty one can bo to the other. And I'm beginning to think that it might be an idea worthy of imitation on a vaster scale. , Similia SimilibuH Ciirantur Some' pri.)fessor at Columbia Univer¬ sity recently sought tcj demonstrate that the way to;;remove a weakness was not to ilirectly seVjk its removal, bnt rather to emphasize tt Thus, thi,?f professor found that he had most success in curbing a tendency Ik had to make certain mistakes in type- \yriting by deliberately .¦seeking to prac¬ tice those nn'stakes. Extending the Principle Perhaps tbe principle is applicable to the field of ethics. Perhaps we should gain in g<Hid will towards each other, if instead of trying to be nice, we tried de¬ liberately to be a little nasty. Isn't it a fact, for instance, that to those, closest to us, we are always a little more frank and a little more cruel-and yet our friendship is not impaired thereliy. Al Smith perhaps bad the right idea, when "making up" with Governor Roose¬ velt, he grtete(l him—"Hello, yon old potato." Calling a person an "old potato" is as yuii know, not Ihe lushest form of flat¬ tery. Had he called Roosevelt ''a fme up¬ standing genllenmn"—it would have been nn)re flattering, but would it have so healeil the breach. I think the time has come for a move¬ ment for bigger and better insulting—in the interests of peace on eartli and good will to men.

Gn|>, Mordecai Hirschsprung, Isaac Werne and Nathan /.elizer. On this occasion a drive was lannched for funds with Avhich to defray the ex|ieiisc of operating the Hebrew School during the coming year. So much has already been said in these cohnnns pertain¬ ing to the splendid role that has been played, in Columbus Jewry hy the Hebrew School, that it is hardly necessary to elaborate on this matter at this t.inie, liver(y iChrtnucle' i-tader knows that the Hebrew School, has always been a potent inflncnce for good, inculcating in our young |)eople the knowledge and, the spirit of Judaism, and instilling in thoin a higher regard for the sublime teachings of our rabbis and ,sages, our prophets and men of wisdom: The'I'almud Torah has been a veritable fortress combating the forces of assiiuilation and disintegration. To prepare our growing boys and girls for service .as future leaders in Israel has been one of its most cherished ambitions, ft i.s, therefore, a duty as well as a i)rivilege to contribute something towards the maintenance of this institution, livery Jew in whose heart there beats a love for his an¬ cestral faith should assist In shouldering the burden of keep¬ ing the doors of the Mulirew School open. At the ])resent time tlie T;tlinud Torah is faced with a .serious financial crisis. If this crisis i.s not broken, if the debts incurred by the board of directors are not paid .within the next two months, the school may have to be discijntinued, , This .would be a real tragedy. The OlVicers of the Talmud Torah take this nieans of appealing to tho Jewish community at large to help them in this tryiiig hour. They shudder to think what will happen in case the Talmud Torah is abandoned and allowed to die. They urge evef.y Jew to do his bit. It is hoped that all those who are approiiched during'the coining week will realize that it is a ''niitzvah" to give to this worthy cause. We must not allow the' outstanding Jewish educational institution of Columbus to pass out of existence merely because of the lack ¦ of ftnids.'Such an eventualilr-wiiilld be a severe indictment of our lack of Jewish loyalty and Jewish oldigation: Let us do our 'duty inanfidly and with gratitude to God for the opportunity'to help such an cxeiuplary enterprise.

Hard Rock Casino to be built in Sioux City
Hard Rock Casino to be built in Sioux City
SIOUX CITY, Iowa —
Sioux City Entertainment will build a Hard Rock Casino in northwest Iowa's Sioux City.
The Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission awarded the license Thursday at the end of a meeting held in Council Bluffs, choosing from four proposals for land-based casinos in Sioux City.
Last month, the commission toured proposed sites and met with developers.
Penn National Gaming Co. submitted two proposals for a casino, and Ho-Chunk Inc. and Sioux City Entertainment also each bid for the rights to build a casino, which would replace the Argosy Sioux City riverboat casino.
The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino has a $118.5 million price tag and would be at the site of the historic Battery Building in downtown Sioux City.

Project Description
Virginia Tech is evaluating the long-term storage potential of CO2 in coal seams and organic shales by injecting up to 20,000 metric tons of CO2 into these unconventional reservoirs in central Appalachia. This project is designing and implementing characterization, injection, and monitoring activities to test unconventional formations (coal and organic shales) ability to store CO2 economically and safely as well as track the migration of CO2 throughout the injection and post-injection phases. In addition, this research will test the injectivity of CO2 into unmineable coal seams and the potential for enhanced coalbed methane recovery (ECBM) by stressing the coal under continuous CO2 injection for a period of one year.
Project Benefits
This injection project focuses on better defining the regional opportunities for storage in coal and shale formations and provides the foundation for larger volume projects in the Appalachian region. Specifically, this project is performing an enhanced coalbed methane injection test where up to 20,000 tons of CO2 will be injected into three legacy coalbed methane wells in Buchanan County, VA and a Huff and Puff test in a Devonian Shale gas well in Morgan County, TN where 500 tons of CO2 will be injected. Completion of the project will demonstrate safe and permanent storage of CO2.

Mutual aid from five departments responded to a three-alarm fire in Harwich early this morning.
HARWICH – The state fire marshal's office is investigating a suspicious fire that destroyed a motel on Route 28 early this morning.
Firefighters were called to the Stonehorse Motel, 872 Route 28 around 1:30 a.m. and found it to be 50 percent involved, according to a Harwich Fire Department press release.
Within about 15 minutes the fire had grown to a three-alarm fire, the release states.
Mutual aid from Chatham, Dennis, Brewster, Yarmouth and Orleans responded to the scene, while other units from across the mid- and outer-Cape covered the stations of responding companies.
Early into the fire the roof began to collapse, but no injuries were reported in the blaze at the vacant motel.
The building was a total loss, the release states.
Anyone with information on the fire should contact the Harwich Fire Department at 508-430-7541 or the State Fire Marshal's Arson Hotline at 1-800-682-9229.

At first glance, his creation, called "Trance Icon 2" appears to be a condemnation of the current president. Situated in the large street-side window of the storefront gallery, "Trance Icon 2" features a small box with a photograph of George W. Bush in front of spinning "hypno-disc," the likes of which are used in B horror movies to induce a hypnotic state.
The photograph, however, is not just a photograph, but a lenticular image that changes from a depiction of the president when he was young to a demonic perversion of that same image, with bright red eyes and what Durning describes as "bleeding teeth like he just ate a baby."
Though this may seem like a political display, it is only a small part of the larger piece. Small speakers behind the display repeat the tinny, monotone voice that says, "This is your president!"
Surrounding this tiny, gear-filled wooden box is a full window's worth of words denouncing the media for manipulating the American public into accepting the terms of the 2000 presidential election. A lengthy screed against the corporate-controlled media and how it influences and determines everyday life is peppered with the mantra, "The Media Lies."
"I've created a spinning motorized hypnosis machine that convinces you that George W. Bush is our president," said Durning. "He didn't win the election, and I don't care who called it."
He built the piece shortly after the results of the 2000 election, and says that rather than voters or any political party, it was the media that decided the results.
"The media, which is controlled by three companies, is manufacturing your consent," he said. "Opinion polls don't reflect our belief, but rather create them."
Durning was born and raised in Brooklyn and has been a working artist for his whole life. He is an animator by training, and still teaches the subject at Long Island University and the New York City College of Technology, and has been working with mixed media for the last 15 years. He is also an independent filmmaker and hosts a radio show discussing new media on WPS1.
"Trance Icon 2" was created shortly after the 2000 election and in the past eight years has been shown around Brooklyn, but at the Clinton Hill Art Gallery it may have found its best location.
Located on Vanderbilt Avenue just off Myrtle Avenue, the piece shines out of the small gallery window and onto a very busy section of street.
"Kids that walk by the piece love it," said Durning. "They usually get it before their parents do."
The gallery's location near a bus stop means that ordinary commuters have an opportunity to engage with Durning's message.
"When people wait out there, they can't help but fell the presence of the piece," he said.
After eight years, the end of President Bush's second term, and a very tight election to replace him, Durning felt that this would be good time to revisit his piece.
"I think this will be a perfect send-off to his administration, and I'm hopeful that it is a sendoff," he said.
The Clinton Hill Art Gallery held an opening/artist talk with Daniel Durning and artist Lydia Malloy. Their work will be on display at the gallery until October 31. The Clinton Hill Art Gallery is located at 154 Vanderbilt Avenue. Prints of "Trance Icon 2" are available.

Sports bars in Taichung, in my opinion, are few and far between. The only one I can think of is The Londoner. As for Taiwanese owned I can't think of any. There used to be FUBAR but we all know what happened to them.
I do think it is possible and can be done but the location is the most important part. There is the location where FM is located. They have been shut for quite some time now, I think it's been about 8 months. From what I understand they are trying to get themselves a new license that will allow them to operate as a bar and restaurant. If you pass by FM and take a peek in the window you'll see that everything is there chairs, tables and even all the alcohol is on the shelves. I would love to have an opportunity to open a place there. It seems like the last place in the West District that could potentially allow a bar to open.
That is not even the West District; that is XiTuen bordering on NanTuen.

RIAA Finally Succeeds In Having US Pressure Russia Into Shutting Down Allofmp3
from the this-will-backfire dept
However, over at Digg, someone is pointing to a letter from the US Trade Representative (warning: pdf file) that highlights agreements made between Russia and the US, including that Russia will move to shut down Allofmp3.com and sites like it. Russia has also agreed to put in place new laws within the next month that will make it so sites like Allofmp3 no longer can get rights to resell content from local collections agencies (the loophole through which the site was legal). Of course, this seems a little backwards. Shouldn't they change the law first? Then Allofmp3 will have to comply or be shut down. It's amusing (if sad) to see the agreement include the promise to shut down Allofmp3 before even the laws are changed.
It will be interesting to see what comes of this. It certainly is getting a lot more difficult for Allofmp3 to stay in business, but hopefully someone, somewhere is realizing that Allofmp3's business model represents a much bigger opportunity than a threat, seeing that people really will pay for music without copy protection, and they'll buy an awful lot if the prices are much cheaper than they are now. Of course, it's also possible that Allofmp3 (or some others) may realize that the trick is to just move out of Russia to a country that won't succumb to the RIAA in the form of US government officials. We've heard Antigua might be interested -- and they might do it with the support of the WTO, which takes that arrow out of the sling. The key point, however, is that each of these sites that the industry shuts down hasn't done much to actually deal with the changing market the industry is facing. If anything, it's often emboldened those who are championing free or cheap music offerings.

1. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnectingjimsing59 Jan 25, 2011 1:36 PM (in response to billh)
I have the same problem and the only solution is a reinstall of Windows.
2. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
I really don't think that will do any good... I think it is a problem with the 5100 AGN and its drivers. I fixed the problem this morning. I went to Frys, bought a USB wireless adapter, disabled the 5100 AGN, installed the drivers for the new adapter and I've been going fine with no dropped connections for a couple of hours. The cost? $39 and a gallon of gas.
3. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
I have the same problem. I am using a new Linksys E2000 router and have a PRO 2915ABG wireless card. I have downloaded the most updated drivers but that did not fix the problem. The ironic thing is that I did not have this problem with my old router (linksys WRT54G). Sorry I was not able to help but I am interested if you get any good suggestions.
4. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
I have had the same issue for months! with this wireless adaptor. My laptop is an HP Probook 4411s of a little under 2 years. A few days ago, I re-installed Windows 7 and it was fine until yesterday after a large number of Windows 7 updates were installed. I decided to find a fix for it this time. Updating latest drivers didn't solve it. I suspected the problem might have lied in one of the updates. I spent literally hours removing as many updates as possible. When the device isn't listed, it doesn't even show in BIOS, also updated to the latest downloaded from HP. I have switched to Windows 7 64bit recently. I don't remember I had this with Windows 7 32bit. However, I didn't use wireless as intensively on this laptop as now.
It is either the product is faulty, which has been out of warranty in my case, or Windows 7 64bit is showing what it is once again. Luckily, I have a Mac book pro.
I am going to give it up myself. Get a USB wireless adaptor if you need to connect wirelessly.
5. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
And I thought I had a crappy router, as the wireless kept dropping and I had to restart the router once, twice a day. Now I still have the same problem with my new router... I've had this laptop for over a year.. How is it possible that there isn't a fix for this problem yet??? Frustrating!
6. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnectingRM Mar 30, 2011 8:21 AM (in response to Paola )
Yes, this is a persistent and prevalent problem and having had it for at least a month I've yet to find the correct solution. I've tried all driver updates. My connection can stay on for as little as a few minutes and as long as several hours at a stretch, and when the 5100 disconnects my only solition is a restart. The profile appears nowhere and the device isn't listed until I reboot.
It worked fine for over a year. It's difficult to imagine that this is a physical problem with the device as opposed to related to some kind of software update or incompatability issue .. too many people have logged in with the same complaint after having the thing work fine for a long while out of the box.
7. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
Just an update.... I bought a USB wireless adapter on 1/25 and haven't had a single disconnect since then. Problem solved.
8. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
I have no doubt that using an external USB wireless device will solve the problem. But I would prefer to exhaust all possibilities for fixing the onboard card. Particularly since the 5100 worked perfectly well for a solid year before showing problems. It would seem connected to an update or compatability issue. And it's definitely this card, as no other devices using the hub lose connection. Most frustrating is the aspect of having to restart the machine, sometimes several times, to locate the device. I find it hard to believe that someone at Intel hasn't identified the specifics of this problem, with so many users complaining about the same thing.
9. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
I am 100% sure this adapter model is defunct in some way. I have (like 1000 other people) experienced the same problems.
I have 8 computers connected to my access point - and ONLY the 1 with Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN drops out every few minutes.
This particular pc has both Win7-32 and Linux parttions and the problem is exactly the same on both OS's. Therefore it cannot
be driver related. At least on Linux I wrote a script to reinitilialize adapter every time it disconnects. But that can hardly be called a solution.
Unfortunately the adapter is a built-in in a laptop, so the only way is an external USB adapter (hate it!).
The problem some times gets even worse since it occationally confuses the AP router which then resets all ports. Very nice!
If only Intel would admit that this adapter is defunct (or provide working firmware if possible). Then we could all stop wasting our time....
/Peter B.
10. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
I have little doubt that this is an adapter issue, but what's puzzling is that the adaptor worked perfectly for over a year before starting to malfunction. The problem seems to be that the adaptor disconnects when it drops the signal, and is unrecognized until the computer is restarted .. sometimes requirng multiple restarts. Also curious is that this adapter performed flawlessly for several hours at a remote location, and yet all other laptops and wireless devices work perfectly on the hub that this unit fails on repeatedly at home. All of this leads me to believe it's a flaw in the unit combined with situational circumstances.
I did order a USB adapter .. but if necessary, how difficult would it be to replace the onboard adapter with something else? It's in a Lenovo X200. Isn't it just a matter of accessing the old one and hooking the new one up?
11. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
I have used this in my old Dell Studio 1737 without issues. I had Vista 32-bit/64-bit and Windows 7 64-bit installed and it worked with no problems. Here are My Intel WiFi 5100 AGN Connectivity Settings
When I install it on Windows 7, for the initial setup, I used the Vista 64-bit drivers from my manufacturers website and installed the drivers in the Vista SP2 Compatibility mode I later updated the drivers at Intel® Driver Update Utility for Intel® wireless adapters I was helping someone else with an issue and I then tried Installing My Wi-Fi Technology
My wireless router was using these Recommended Wireless Router Settings, I use channel 11. Having the router of auto channel can pose problems with connecting, as well as the 2.4gh cordelss phones.
12. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
- hi again,
I think you are right. There has to be an obscure set of circumstances to trigger the problems. My pc also used to more stable.
For Windows 7 this can be explained by certain "important" updates. It has been suggested that problems are related to
"Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport". This is not a bad idea. Microsoft expect all adapters (even old ones!) to comply with their new
"standard". This cannot always be the case. I have experimented with this but not really achieved convincing results.
It does not explain why I have the same problems on Linux (Ubuntu Lucid).
Only thing that changed in my network is that more clients were added over time. Because of this I upgraded AP's firmware (D-link) to the latest
version but to no avail.
I now use a D-link DWA-140 USB adapter I had "left-over" and it works flawlessly.
I dare not try to disassemble my ACER laptop :-) Not sure what to replace adapter with anyway.
/peter b.
13. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
Yeah, I too purchased a Medialink USB wifi adapter and it works flawlessly, but I'd much rather have my onboard 5100 agn perational. It doesn't make sense that these problems wouldn't present out of the box if it wasn't a situational issue. I noticed that the Intel adapter worked flawlessly for several hours at another location last week. But the issue can't be soley in my wireless router because every other computer, hand held device etc works perfectly and as I said, so does my USB plug-in.
I can pinpoint the day when this started happening a few months back. Maybe if there's some way to check the history of installed updates I can then track down which might have caused the 5100 to enter this mode of frequent disconnection. If all it did was disconnect that would be one thing, but the fact that the system fails to identify the device unless a restart is performed is particularly annoying. And sometimes it requires several restarts.
It's frustrating when an issue is so widespread yet not acknowledged, addressed or fixed by the manufacturer. If it's a physical problem with the adapter due to over-heating with time, I'd be OK with that too and just replace the thing. But it's kind of a delicate operation on a laptop and it would good to have some definitive answer from Intel either way. It definitely isn't specific to any one brand of computer.
14. Re: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN problem - disconnecting
I am having the same problems with my 5100 AGN WiFi card. I see that it disconnects when 802.11 n is enabled on my router. If enable only 802.11 a/b/g I do not have disconnections. The problem probably is that 5100 AGN supports 802.11 Draft N and not the final protocol of 802.11 n. with my older router I did not have any problems.

John Deyermond: Obamacare was brought to us by deception, not leadershipBY JOHN DEYERMOND
November 24. 2013 4:44PM
On Oct. 1 we saw the rollout by the federal government of one of the largest income redistribution and social re-engineering projects in history. By all accounts it has been a disaster. Government does some things well. Providing socialized health care is not one of them. We are seeing the beginning of the destruction of our health care system.
Obamacare was passed without a single bipartisan vote, making it one of the few major social engineering programs in American history to have this distinction. This was an early warning sign that the program was in trouble. By most polls today the majority of Americans want the federal government to stay out of the health care business. I could not agree more.
When we send our elected officials to Washington to represent us, we should at least expect that they stand up for ALL New Hampshire residents, be truthful, and, as in the medical profession, do no harm. Those New Hampshire representatives who cast some of the deciding votes that allowed Obamacare to become law violated this trust. They chose ideology over doing what is best for New Hampshire citizens, and frankly they were deceptive in pushing this bill through. I doubt any of them even read the bill.
We were told time and again that if you like your health care plan you can keep it. False. We were told if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor. False. We were told that health care costs would be reduced by $2,500 per family. False. We were told that the number of uninsured would be reduced. False. In fact, to date more than 5 million Americans have lost their coverage. In New Hampshire, 22,000 policies have been cancelled. These numbers are expected to grow.
In New Hampshire we ended up with a single network provider who immediately excluded 10 of 26 acute care hospitals in the Granite State. How is that for caring for our citizens?
Government central planning does not work. Americans are now saddled with another massive middle class tax bill, which will have long-term consequences to our economy and reduce disposable income even more as we struggle to pay for "free health care." When our representatives cast a vote in our name, the least we should expect is that those votes be informed votes. At the end of the day, votes "have consequences." When you start tinkering with something as personal as health care, you had better know what you're talking about. At election time, remember who gave this disaster to us.

Learn How to Sell on eBay: The Complete eBay Marketing System
Looking for help with your existing eBay business? Are you a beginner wondering how to sell on eBay? Either way, this program has everything you need to learn how to sell on eBay. The Professional eBay business manual is written by Skip McGrath. Skip has been an eBay PowerSeller since 1999. He still sells on eBay every day.
To successfully run an eBay business today, you need a guide who has "Been There, Done That!"
A note from Skip: In this letter I'm going to use the examples of some of my students. They are people like experienced eBayers Lori Ezzo, a mom with four young children, Ron and Deb Gossett, who work exclusively with wholesalers; and eBay newcomers Freddie Borden, a 70-year old Coast Guard retiree; and Donna Austin, retired from the Air Force on disability who recently completed her Bachelor's degree (Go Donna!).
You can read their complete story and hundreds more unsolicited letters and emails from students on our testimonials page.
At one time eBay was a relatively simple place. Fees were cheap, tens of thousands of new people shopping every day, and in some categories you could be the only seller!
Running an eBay business is different today
There are dozens of books, e-books and CDs that claim to teach you how to make money on eBay. Unfortunately, most are written by people who have never been successful on at anything except selling e-books! I saw one the other day with a 41 Feedback rating claiming to have the secret eBook of eBay success… the opening bid was a penny! I guess you get what you pay for!
I was a PowerSeller way before I wrote my first book six years ago and Karen and I still sell on eBay every day! My success didn't come from selling my books … although we've sold over 25,000 copies so far!
I just wanted to let you know I received the Complete Marketing System. I soaked it up like a sponge. So much great information, techniques and resources. In the last couple weeks using some of this information our sales have jumped up incredibly. My closed auction ratio is much better now. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Keep up the great work and thank you very much. ~ Mike A, Moreno Valley, CA
eBay Business Secret - In case you do not know it, almost ANYONE can claim to be a "PowerSeller!"
Karen and I have been eBay PowerSellers for over 9 years. We've sold over $1,000,000.00 on eBay… jewelry, electronics, art, antiques and collectibles, designer clothes and other items. We've built three hugely successful eBay businesses, involving our whole family, even my married kids! (Learn more about us)
We pay more each month in listing fees than some PowerSellers on eBay SELL in a month!
All it takes to call yourself a "PowerSeller" is to sell $1,000 a month for three months and have 98% positive feedback. Out of 650,000 + full-time eBay sellers less than half ever do even this much in sales! And remember, we're talking $1,000 in total sales, not profit… who can live on that anyway?
At $3000 a month, eBay calls you "Silver PowerSeller," and at $10,000 a month you're a "Gold PowerSeller." But even at this level, you're just beginning to make a good income. It wasn't until a few years back, when we started hitting around $25,000 a month (that's getting into the range eBay calls "Platinum"), that our lifestyle really began to change.
The "eBook experts" cannot take you very far. You need a guide who has "Been There, Done That" to show you the ropes of an eBay business
I HAVE… And I'm still "doing it!" Almost anyone can become a so-called "PowerSeller," but how much do they actually make? And, can they take you where you want to go?
If you're going to build an eBay business, why not have a COMPLETE eBay Business System and PLAN on making at least $10,000 or MORE every month?
I know what it takes to build an eBay business making this kind of money… I've done it -- and I am still doing it every day!
And, along the way, I've developed a unique step-by-step System you can use to duplicate my success and become part of… The "Elite" Of eBay PowerSellers - The Ones Who Actually Make Money!
Awhile back I was invited into an especially select membership circle of "eBay Elite" Super Sellers known as PESA - the Professional eBay Sellers' Alliance. I was SHOCKED when I learned how many of these Elite PowerSellers read my newsletter and had studied MY courses! TOP eBay PowerSellers have been relying on my tips and strategies for years! These incredibly successful PowerSellers want to pick my brains, and the synergy is unbelievable! The best part is, I get to pick their brains as well, so I'm getting all of their insights to grow my own successful eBay business even bigger!
Now I'm passing along all of my techniques, as well as what I have learned from these TOP eBay Super Sellers, in the most COMPLETE eBay Business SYSTEM ever created!
You too can learn how to sell on eBay and set up your eBay business. I give you everything you need to succeed.
My three basic courses manuals, The Basic Guide To Selling on eBay, The eBay PowerSeller's Manual and The Wholesale Buying System have always been full of good, solid information. Thousands of eBay sellers have built successful businesses using these books alone.
Just read some of the actual letters from my students from all over the world. But my basic courses can only take you so far. Almost everyone who ever bought even one of these powerful courses wound up buying all three. And, you still can, if that's what you want. But I don't know why you would, when all three run you $153.60 with shipping.
Now you can get my Complete eBay Marketing System for less -much less! You get everything in those three best-selling books - PLUS tons of new material I developed just for this new comprehensive course.
I solve the TWO BIGGEST ISSUES faced by ALL eBay Sellers… once and for all:
Mistakes in these two areas are the biggest reason eBay sellers fail !
In my System, you will learn little-known niche research techniques that will make the product decisions for you. Then I am going to show you how to find those products at prices where you can make a profit - not just little bitty profits, but consistent BIG profits, week-after-week, month-after-month, year-after-year…
Your auctions will close even while you sleep. I love waking up in the morning and seeing what sold overnight.
I even GIVE you 100% access to my Master File of Wholesale Suppliers…companies that have proven themselves again and again.
And that's just the beginning of what you'll learn!
See, I do eBay auctions every day, and I continue to learn and incorporate new methods and techniques, that help me grow my business. eBay is constantly changing, evolving, and expanding. I realized I needed to create an entirely fresh system, for today … not for the way eBay was two or three years ago!
This comprehensive System has EVERYTHING you need, including NEW information updated for today, PLUS tons of never-before-released material NEW AND UNIQUE to my System.
This is no "dummies" download eBook that's impossible to use! It's a real printed business workbook, made for real-world use as you build your business.
I don't know about you, but trying to read an eBook on my computer screen wears my eyes out like driving all night in pouring rain! And who wants to burn up their printer trying to print all of the pages just to save some publisher a buck!? I SHIP you my System in a
two-volume set in spiral binding You can take notes, highlight key points and use it while you're actually listing your auctions! In this age
of quickie "e-books," this is a truly impressive package!
Buying my eBay Business System will not make you an instant millionaire. ( I hate people who make claims like that.)
But if you take it and use the step-by-step detailed information I share, you WILL succeed, and in a BIG way! You get 63 Chapters and 4 Resource Appendices… over 300 pages in all! Feel free to check out the Table of Contents.
Here's just a few of the eBay business topics that I cover in detail:
There are a DOZENS of powerful chapters (63 in all!) and resource material (including a Complete Auction Checklist, complete nationwide Wholesale Trade Show Calendar and Merchandise & Gift Mart Directory and more!).. There's way too much to list here. You can stop and read the entire Table of Contents here, or you can take action and . . .
Like the name says, this is more than a textbook, it's a complete "SYSTEM." I explore each subject in detail and discuss the profit-making techniques and strategies necessary for success on eBay.
I share all the upsides, and the downsides, of each topic, tip, and technique. I don't fill you with stories about "acres of diamonds" and leave out the parts about needing a pick and shovel! I don't waste time on pie-in-the-sky theories… Just straight-forward information that works.
I give you PROVEN STRATEGIES AND TECHNIQUES that have been shown to produce time and time again.
I share the GOOD, the BAD, AND the UGLY! I tell you which methods to avoid on your road to success, and why. This is NOT some watered-down redo of the freebie information you can find online.
Don't assume that The COMPLETE eBay Marketing System is the Same-o, Same-o rehash of information found in other guides online. And don't assume that somehow it's only written for "advanced" experienced eBayer sellers.
The COMPLETE eBay Marketing System is for anyone and everyone who wants to make serious money on eBay.
But I'm only an eBay newbie… how do I know where to begin?
You've already started by reading this letter. The Complete eBay Marketing System is the book that could put you on the path to success!
My promise to you:
I'll cover every step-by-careful-step to understanding how, when and where to place your auctions. I'll school you on the most effective listing and copy writing techniques to make your auctions stand out from the crowd.
I'll show you how to spend LESS on eBay fees AND close more auctions! And, I'll help you make this a serious business you can LIVE on if that's your desire. Simply applying the strategies and techniques outlined in this manual can put hundreds, even thousands of dollars in your bank account within the next 30 to 90 days…
OK, but I've been selling on eBay for years… what new things can you possibly teach ME?
A lot of my success has come from continuous experimentation. I try out techniques and test, test, test constantly -- trying new ideas every week. A lot of them fail -- but that is ok, because I learn from those -- and what I learn I use and I pass them on to you.
If you are an experienced eBay seller, get ready to explode your business with dozens of new and exciting ways to make money!
I will share some methods and techniques you've never heard of… some you've never even imagined! Let's face it; most entrepreneurs share a common ailment: when we own a business, we can get stuck "inside the box!" (Have you ever said to yourself, "If it ain't broke, why fix it?!") We get so focused on what we "know" works; we get too rooted in things that worked yesterday.
I am not going to teach you how to just "think outside of the box." I am going to teach you how to throw the box away!
Even one or two hot new techniques could mean thousands of extra dollars in your pocket every month! Even if each one only increases your auction profits by a small percentage, your investment will be returned many times over. I don't stop at one or two tips… I give you HUNDREDS of ideas to put to use in your business, TODAY! And, I answer EVERY SINGLE QUESTION AND CONCERN about eBay I've ever encountered in over 7 years. Questions like…
Do I need to be a "techie" to succeed in eBay?
NO! You Do NOT have to be a computer genius to do this business. I'm sure not! The Complete eBay Marketing System is written in down-to-earth laymen's language… not in "High Geek." It does help to know how to use a mouse and type, but I'm still a "hunt'n'peck" typist myself, so even this shouldn't hold you back! Freddie Borden says it best:
This isn't some detached academic piece full of hypothesis and philosophy. This is solid, real-world information. You can take it and use it the same day you receive it, and have your first successful auction launched within 24 hours!
Where do I find things to sell that'll make me money?
You can make money in eBay even if you have NOTHING to sell! I'll GIVE you 100% access to my Master File of Wholesale Suppliers for with your System. They can become your "Virtual Warehouse" and help you stay on the cutting edge of trends, so the items you list are consistent winners! Not only do you get access to my "members-only wholesale web site, my monthly newsletter also lists between 10 and 15 new wholesale sources every month.
Skip: What about drop shipping?
The honest truth... Drop shipping can be dangerous if not done right. And...most drop shipping companies are just scams.
You can make money dropshipping on eBay -- I do it every day, but you have to know how to do it and where to find the companies that will supply you with both the products to sell, and reliable service that won't hurt your feedback rating.
I will connect you with large reliable drop shipping companies -- and, even better, I will show you how to contact actual manufacturers that drop ship so you cut out the middleman.
I just want to make a little extra money on eBay, not a fortune. Why should I buy your System?
Whatever you want to make out of eBay, you can. But why work harder than you have to for the same results! A lot of people start out just wanting some extra money to make ends meet.
There's no reason to work harder for what you earn than you have to, when you can get more satisfying results with less effort? Why list auctions that go nowhere and get only a handful of bids (if any at all!), when you can enjoy watching your auctions create a "feeding frenzy" that drives up your sales revenues. Remember 70 year-old Freddie Borden?
Of course, you may start out small and later decide you want to use eBay to replace your current income. It's very do-able, and I've lived comfortably off of my eBay income for years now. I just took off two weeks for an Alaskan cruise on a 42' motor yacht with a couple of my closest friends. Karen and I also visit the Bahamas for 10 days every year when the winter rains close in on our Northwest home. It won't be my last dream come true because of this business.
Lori Ezzo used The Complete eBay Marketing System to create a solid growth plan that… I'll let her tell it:
What are YOUR dreams, YOUR goals?
Is it to retire early? To be able to afford college for your kids? How about some home improvement… or maybe a brand new home? Travel to other countries… or maybe simply seeing the beauty of our own country! Whatever you want, you can achieve it through eBay, If you have someone to guide you past all the potholes and mistakes along the way!
I will teach you and lead you, all the way to the success you want. The Complete eBay Marketing System has everything you need. I've included updated material from all three of my basic courses, and the most up-to-date tips and techniques used by the biggest PowerSellers of today.
Best of all, the entire cost is only $147. That's it... You get over 300 pages, 63 chapters, 4 Appendices...as well as bonus reports.
That's SIX POUNDS of solid, targeted, powerful information to catapult your eBay success!
That may sound expensive, but today it's less than the cost of most college textbooks for a single course. And, Remember: You are not just buying a book, I keep in touch with you through my newsletters and the member's-only web site that I update each month with new information and new wholesale sources. Some of my competitors are charging $9.95 a month for access to their web site. That works out to over $119 each year... Another company charges over $200 for a similar package -- and it was written by an eBay seller who recently went bankrupt...
Where else can you get everything you need to know to succeed for less than a hundred and fifty bucks? If all you got was the comprehensive workbook of proven information, it would be enough to ensure your success. But I want to do everything I can to practically guarantee your success, so…

I still sell on eBay full-time every day (if you click here you'll see just one of my eBay accounts). I have several active accounts on eBay - plus others on Overstock.com, three web sites and a Yahoo Store. But it ALL started with eBay. And I'm the most qualified person in the country to help YOU make it, and make it BIG, in your own eBay auction business.

I'm baaack! Yes that's right my thesis is finally finished! And since we're right in the middle of the Sydney International Food Festival (SIFF) what better way to kickstart my newly-found freedom than by trying to go to as many events as possible.
The Night Noodle Markets started on Monday this week and I may have picked the worst possible day to go. Though it started out as a nice balmy evening, the rain started pouring down about an hour into the markets and people took cover under the trees in Hyde Park. Nevertheless, we still got a chance to check out all the stalls which consisted of mostly Thai, Malaysian and dumpling/dim sum places, a sprinkling of Japanese stalls and the ever present Turkish gozleme and poffertjes (which had been renamed 'mini pancakes' with an Asian font haha). The Jackie M Malaysian Cuisine stall was just as popular as last year, with lots of people queueing up for the made-to-order noodles.
Both Din Tai Fung and New Shanghai had dumpling makers on site which was quite cool. They stood behind plastic screens with their mouth guards and folded dumplings in front of the waiting queues – it was like dumpling TV! The dumpling-makers at Din Tai Fung looked especially professional, they folded those dumpling skins so expertly and so quickly.
I'm a sucker for food on a stick, so the kushiyaki skewers at the Mizuya stand caught my eye and I had to get them, especially since one of them was a Japanese cheese sausage! Unfortunately it wasn't as cheesy as I hoped… it sort of just tasted like a normal sausage. But on a stick :) There was also a beef kushiyaki which was quite tender and flavoursome except a little bit overcooked for my liking. I liked the prawn kushiyaki but the chicken was the best, although it did remind me of those strangely cubic chicken skewers that you buy from Woolies.
It started to rain so we hid out under a tree to eat our skewers. After the rain subsided we wandered over to the Chat Thai stall which was decked out with people in bright yellow shirts.
More food on a stick! The golden tower of deep fried fishballs at the Chat Thai stall spoke to me and told me to buy them so I did.
The lady at the stall put the stick of fishballs in a bag and drizzled sweet chilli sauce on top. The batter was light and I loved the crunch and then the bouncy-ness of the fishball inside. I'm usually ok with sweet chilli sauce but this was HOT! (note: I am relatively chilli-intolerant). After one fishball my mouth was on fire and it didn't help that the inside of the fishball was hot (temperature-wise) as well. I gave the rest of it to Sir D who loves his chilli.
It started pouring again but this time we managed to get a dry seat in the Coopers beer garden under an umbrella, since most of the other plastic/wooden chairs set up were wet from the first downpour. It didn't seem like the rain was going to let up so in the end we ventured back out to Chat Thai under my tiny umbrella to get dessert, which was housed under these strange dome things, presumably to keep them fresh.
I had my eye on the deep fried banana from the start so I went with a mix of the banana fritters and the kai nok gatah. You certainly get a lot for $8, the guy loaded up our little container right up to the top! The banana fritters were coated in a glutinous rice, coconut milk and sesame seed batter. While it was super crunchy on the outside, the inside was a bit of a letdown with the banana being dry and tasting underripe. I enjoyed the kai nok gatah more, which were lightly fried sweet potato paste dumplings. They're very chewy like mochi with a nice crisp outside but they do get quite filling and starchy after a while. They were chopping up mango while we bought our deep fried goods and it smelt heavenly but we were too full to get the mango and sticky rice dessert. Maybe next year!
The 2010 SIFF Night Noodle Markets are held in Hyde Park, and run from 11 October to 22 October on weekdays, 5pm-9.30pm. For more information, check out the Night Noodle Markets on the SIFF website.

Davis Schneiderman of The Huffington Post speaks with Prof. Sherry Turkle about her book examining how smartphones and other digital technologies are impacting relationships. "My message of this project is not that you shouldn't enjoy your Twitter, it's just that when you're talking to me, you should put it aside," says Turkle.
Boston Herald reporter John Connolly spotlights the MIT football team, which is undefeated thus far this season. "We have 75 MIT football players. They're smart. They don't need us to tell them what to do," explains coach Brian Bubna. "I've been here since 2010 and we're moving in the right direction."
Fortune reporter Aaron Pressman highlights how Prof. Julie Shah is working on making human-robot collaboration on the assembly line more effective through the use of collaborative robots, dubbed cobots. Pressman writes that Shah "is working on software algorithms developed with machine learning that will teach cobots how and when to communicate by reading signals from the humans around them."
UCLA Prof. Leonard Kleinrock, an MIT alumnus, speaks with PC Mag reporter S.C. Stuart about his work developing the mathematical theory of packet networks during his graduate studies at MIT. Kleinrock recounts how "that was a golden era at MIT and elsewhere in the research groups in the sixties, and I'll be forever grateful to ARPA's enlightened funding culture."
Axios reporter Joann Muller spotlights Rivian, an electric-vehicle startup founded by MIT graduate RJ Scaringe. "If Rivian succeeds, the sharing of its technology could be one of the biggest reasons," writes Muller. "Imagine companies like Amazon, Starbucks or Apple launching their own mobility fleets on top of a generic platform."
MIT startup Nesterly is connecting young people looking for cheaper rents with older residents looking for assistance at home, reports Dugan Arnett for The Boston Globe. Arnett explains that Nesterly "works roughly on the principles of a dating app, with searchable online profiles and features that help work out details of a lease."

Why You Don't Need an Art History Degree to Be a Curator
Artsy Editorial
Michelle Grabner's post-minimalist paintings and drawings return elements of craft to modes of artistic production. "These works are firmly grounded in the now defunct tension between painting and weaving, crafts and the fine arts," she says. "I hope to reinvigorate some of the power struggles between burlap and linen, the loom and the stretcher, and concepts of labor and work, dichotomies most recently leveled by the free market's objective to bring diversity to market." Grabner often references the suburban—using embroidery, wallpaper, or gingham patterns as models—or utilizes arcane geometry, such as Archimedes spirals, wherein each point in a spiral is equidistant from the point that preceded it and the one that follows. Almost all of her work employs a two-tone palette, emphasizing the dynamics of positive and negative space and the texture of the surface, and fusing formalism with socio-political content.

Cystic Fibrosis
People with CF Together
Why can't people with CF be together in the same room/place?
People with CF all carry germs, all of the time, in their airways-both lung and sinuses. However, not all people carry around the same germs. Some people carry more problematic germs (more likely to cause problems to the person with those germs) than others do. Unfortunately, those germs can definitely be passed from one person with CF to another, possibly causing risk to the newly infected person. So, we ask that people with CF avoid close contact with others with CF, unless they are family members.

Older Men Don't Live Longer With Weight-Loss Surgery
Weight-loss surgery may not help obese middle aged and older men live longer, according to new research that runs counter to earlier findings in younger people.
The results mean doctors should be extra careful when counseling obese patients about their treatment options, Matthew Maciejewski of Durham VA Medical Center in North Carolina and colleagues write in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
In 2009, more than 220,000 Americans had some type of weight loss surgery, at a price of about $20,000 per patient, according to the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery.
Experts say surgery is the most enduring way to bring down one's weight, and earlier studies have suggested it will increase life expectancy by up to three years.
At first, the new study did appear to confirm those findings, but the benefit didn't hold up when comparing similar patients who did or did not have surgery.
The researchers looked back at the outcomes of 850 veterans, mostly men over 50 years old, who'd had weight-loss surgery between 2000 and 2006.
Six years after their surgery, about seven percent of the men had died, compared to 15 percent among a comparison group of obese men who didn't have surgery.
But when patients from the two groups were matched closely according to weight, age, race and other factors, the survival gap disappeared.
Previous studies have found that about seven percent of patients having weight-loss surgery experience complications, although most are minor wound problems.
Serious complications — such as massive bleeding or kidney failure — occurred in 2.6 percent of patients in one study from last year.
The new study is the first to compare death rates among heavy middle aged and older men who did or did not have weight-loss surgery, the researchers say, but it did have a number of limitations.
For instance, it's possible that following the patients for longer than six years would have changed the picture in favor of those who had surgery. And, the researchers stress, patients may still want surgery, even if it turns out not to affect their life expectancy, because the weight loss is likely to improve other medical conditions and quality of life.

The big news in executive shake ups last week is the announcement that Stephen Elop—former CEO of Nokia—will now be taking the role of head for the Devices & Studios division, the portion of the company that handles videogames. In other words, the former head of Nokia is now in charge of the fortunes of the Xbox One and Xbox 360. This is a division that's changed hands a lot over the years, with the dramatic and surprise departure of Don Mattrick last year, to be replaced by Julie Larson-Green who is now moving over to the "My Life & Work" team as Chief Experience Officer.
So what does this mean for the future of the Xbox One?
Change the first letter of his last name to an "F" and you'll have your answer.
Don't we have like 2 or 3 of the same article? I don't to know what it means.
This guy has the look of someone who farts in an elevator with two people and blames it on the other person.
Yeah lets get the guy that was asleep at the helm of Nokia for 5 years and put him in charge. Too funny.
Aslong as they don't get rid of Phil Spencer there's hope for a strong product.
Which is great for everyone because of the competition it brings. I guarantee you if Xbox dies...Playstation will just pull in mad cash in their gaming division and then stop building new games and probably just back their major money makers...Much like Microsoft did with the X360. Strong beginning and a weaker ending.

Candlewood Suites was drawn to "the oil and gas play," said Jim Bertram, representative of Corporex Capital, the Covington, Ky.-based development company putting up the hotel. "With the power plants, the oil and gas drilling and the pipeline, we thought it would be a good idea to follow them and build hotels in the area. We also are expecting to see Carrollton grow with new businesses."
The Utica Shale formation sits under Carroll County and has attracted players in the petroleum business like Oklahoma City-based Chesapeake Energy.
"We are excited to come to the community," said Lori Brookshire of Sky Hospitality, a St. Petersburg, Fla., company that will manage the 80-room Microtel Inn & Suites. "Generally, when we open up a Microtel Inn & Suites, they employ 15."
Until the arrival of Microtel Inn & Suites and Candlewood Suites, the only hotel here has been Days Inn in the 1100 block of Canton Road NW.
"The two hotels are being developed because of the oil and gas industry," said Amy Rutledge, executive director of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce. "There will be tourists staying there. That is part of it .... We are hoping to get more restaurants and retail on our community."
As of the 2010 census, Carrollton's population stood at about 3,240. Carroll County's population is about 28,800. And some anticipate more economic growth as long as the Utica Shale remains productive.
"We have so much coming, we can't fathom what is coming," Carroll County Commissioner Thomas Wheaton said. "This is the tip of the iceberg of what is going to come."
Both hotel projects are in the early phases of construction. Foundation work is under way at the Microtel complex while excavation is taking place where the Candlewood Suites will be constructed.
The Microtel will have three stories while Candlewood Suites will be a four-story complex.
As long as Carrollton's population remains under 5,000 it remains a village under state law. While business growth is welcome, a huge swell in population is another matter, according to the mayor.
"That is not what we are striving for," Leghart said. "We are at 3,200. That is whole lot more growth to get to that point (city status). To speculate on city status, that is not anything I want to do. We just don't want to get swallowed up in this move, and spit out later."

Still nursing my DS who will soon be 14 months ...he is an avid nurser about 2-6 times a day depending how many hours I'm home. He got his teeth at around 8 months and Thank the Lord never bites...but this week my left nipple has become very sensitive. I have not gotten my AF back yet so maybe I will soon? The reason I think it may be yeast is because my DS got a really nasty diaper rash a few days ago that was getting worse till I started treating with anti-fungal creams (lotrimin and tea tree oil) and today my right nipple hurts too (ONLY the nipple/areola)...Also, DS doesnt seem to have signs o thrush in his mouth...So how do I know if its yeast? If it is, will treating the diaper rash be enough or do I need to treat my nipples too?
Please help! The pain is making me want to nurse less and somehow my son seems to want to nurse a lot more often!!!!
