Buying from Jensonusa.com
Questions about purchasing bicycles and parts
Buying from Jensonusa.com
Hi everyone,
looking at buying a frame from Jenson and came unstuck when they offered two forms of shipping
They offer both UPS Worldwide Saver (cheaper) and USPS Priority Mail International (dearer).
Can anyone familiar advise? I've paid for dearer shipping before and its not got to me any quicker than average from US sites.
I've not bought before from Jenson, but they have been recommended by some here in the past.

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
I have bought from Jenson several times. Not quite sure what you are asking, just choose the cheapest shipping rate and crack a bottle or two of red while you wait...
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
I was attempting to poorly word a question asking what, apart from price, was likey to be the difference between the two shipping options
Jenson finally have the Ogre frame in black which ends my indecision as I told myself that if they started stocking black I'd stop worrying about different brands of frame and just purchase the Surly Ogre.
Today I got an email from Jenson that today they start selling Black

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
hehe, so you have already knocked off a couple of bottles then...
I've just taken the cheapest rate - as I recall delivery was fairly prompt, at least I can't remember any significant delays (but my patience threshold does seems greater than yours).
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Its a load off getting to order.
I've been agonizing over frame choice for a while.
A few frames/bikes tick most of the boxes but none of them tick all of the boxes.
Seeing the cheap Van Nic frames gave me pause as did the non seperable Nomad frames.
I came close to asking for more info on the Co-motion Rohloff Divide.
When adding up all the bits and bobs needed the $5500 started looking like not "that" dear after all.
I've decided the Surly frame is OK and if I dont like it, I'll probably only lose a third reselling it on and I can start the process all over again.
I'll have my parts that I've chosen like my light wheels and dynamo hub/rohloff to throw on what ever frame makes me happy at the time.
I will be having an early wine oclock today to celebrate the decision over and done with for a while at least.
Thanks for your answer, order placed

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
It is probably a bit late but I prefer not to use UPS
(1) its usual practice is to send goods via Germany & Singapore
(2) they have good systems to ensure you pay the GST etc if required
(3) their fees for this "service" struck me as a bit high
USPS on the other hand
(1) ship via Hawaii
(2) use Aus Post for delivery who are less effective in charging GST etc even when it was required
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Hiya find_bruce,
yeah well I couldnt wait forever for any replies with the frame in black staring me in the face.
My frame and rims are below the gst threshold of $1000 if that hasnt changed yet.
I've still a bike to ride if it ever gets cool enough here in WA so despite my lack of patience noted by Ronk I'll just have to wait.
I'm a new arrival and really struggling with the heat currently.
The bits on their way from Germany will be slow so I'm not expecting to be riding it for a month or two anyway.
Thanks for the heads up though, good to know.
Surly Ogre, Carry Freedom Y-frame Trailer
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Sounds like you are all set. Look forward to seeing the build pictures once all the bits arrive
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
I would use USPS as well. I've used UPS and uggh. USPS is a heap better, shame they don't use DHL, even faster still

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
I'm finding it too hot for riding anyway currently so I'm going to take Ronks excellent advice and crack a few bottles of red to enhance the wait.
My local has a special on Mcguigan (or however its spelt) currently and I hate the thought of you guys ruining your beer drinking palates so I better do my bit to keep the economy afloat whilst I'm sending some of my funds overseas. Thus no one could suggest I'm not a patriot.

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Beg your pardon - McGuigan? You're drinking Hunter Valley wines when you could be drinking Swan Valley or Margaret River? Shame Aidan, shame...
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
I've yet to see local wine either on special or at a price I'll part with.
The McGuigan is often 2 for $16 whilst the local plonk would be requesting that for a single.
I'm not a wine snob and like "quaffing wine" but not at silly prices just because its local. Because its local I expect to pay less and not more.
I even like white from time to time but have been on the red for a while as one of my hosts is a big white drinker and I was struggling to get my
share Its all good though. I had a nice bottle of silver label Wolf Blass recently and enjoyed every drop.

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
There's an Italian vineyard in the Swan Valley - I can't remember the name but the locals will. You go there with your 20, 40, 60 litre container and they fill it up cheap. Then you invite all your acquaintances around and have a bottling party.
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
I find 500ml more than ample these days especially if I want to get a ride in on the next day. I succumb to the temptation occasionally of finishing a whole bottle to myself but almost always regret it. I guess my liver isnt what it used to be.

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
I had UPS add a local processing fee which I discovered after paying was not part of duty or taxes, rather a way for the local offices to add an unnecessary surcharge at my cost (considering that I had paid postage in full). Obviously they didn't respond when I followed this up, I then asked UPS in the USA who were quick to respond but could only refer me back where the local UPS would not justify or explain the surcharge.
The short answer, I would chose US postal service.

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Last week I got a new bar & stem from jenson delivered, went the UPS worldwide saver.
Fastest overseas delivery I have had thus far. Placed the order on Tuesday, received Friday.
Extremely happy with that service.
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Hi Christopher,
Did you pay it?
If you felt obligated to pay might it be worth a sticky somewhere so others dont follow in your tyre prints?
I remember another company trying this on (DHL I believe if memory serves me right) trying this on in other threads so I immediately contacted Wiggle (from memory) and requested to have it noted on my account that I did not want their services for the delivery of my goods, at all, ever!
Surly Ogre, Carry Freedom Y-frame Trailer
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Well I sent them an email asking if they could bump my shipping up to the next option being USPS having read the comments here (thanks everyone).
I just received an email from them and its no worries - done and dusted, USPS it is.
Well thats a load off as I remember my frustration over the debacle of a situation of DHL add on fee's.
I have no objection to paying bills that are transparent from the get go but I believe it was the Aussie end of things that the "special fee's" were added.
Like being in a third world country with baksheesh when that sort of stuff happens.
That a nice short delivery time Broker. Thats right up there with delivery time from the likes of Wiggle, CRC and Evans.
I was more worried with possible add on fee's which not everyone seems to get. Having been bitten before from another company Chris's experience set off my warning bells to a cacophony level. Like I said in another post, I dont mind fee's if I'm aware of them from the onset but not tacked on afterwards.
I prefer my dealings to be transparent at all levels. I actually think companies that use carriers who have the potential to add on fee's should actually have a warning with regards to that fact.

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Progress has been made.
Jenson have processed my order, the funds have been removed from my account and they have added a USPS tracking number to my order page.
The postal upgrade from UPS to USPS wasnt a large amount and I'm looking forward to receiving my goodies hopefully within a few weeks.
just now received an email titled:
"Your Jenson USA Order Has Shipped "
Surly Ogre, Carry Freedom Y-frame Trailer
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
An imbalancing act between their "fairly prompt" and my unfairly impatient in your premonition has come to fruition. There was an update on Saturday morning of the frame departing their international depot (San Bernadino) but nothing since then. I do like to see an update from time to time (well daily if I'm honest but I know thats not entirely rational). I suppose the issue is I've run out of wine and its not pay day till tomorrow........
At least its left the country faster than ze pedestrian postage of ze Germans can get anything underway.
Surly Ogre, Carry Freedom Y-frame Trailer
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Hehe - hope you chose the right carrier then
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
When I remember the emotional ordial of DHL's "special fee's" I know I'm not up for that again. I lack a sense of humor when I'm feeling ripped off.
I can be a little blind to long term outcome when in the heat of the moment - a failing of my hot celtic blood I'm afraid
Update 10.56pm
there has been an update to the USPS tracking site.
More US internal travel. Its now gone to a sorting center in Los Angeles and has been processed through the sorting facility there.
Nice to see an addition to the tracking making me feel its moving closer toward me and not just standing still.

Priority Mail International Parcels, Processed Through Sort Facility, February 21, 2013, 11:56 am, AUSTRALIA, International Parcels
Progress I'm assuming a couple of days in Customs and then three or so days to get to WA.
I'm thinking probably a week before I get it into my hot little hands
Should now be safe to order some stuff from Ze Germans (of the pedestrian post).
I've been holding off ordering anything as I was worried about getting a few things arriving at the same time at customs and it adding up to the gst threshold but now by the time it gets to Australian shores, my frame and rims will have cleared and sitting on what passes as my work bench.
Sound logical
My big worry now is whether or not the 20' frame size is going to be too big for me to get used to. It has a very long effective frame tube compared to what I'm used too.
I'm hoping my new straight post (thomson masterpiece courtesy of our very own "member to member" selling threads) will help aided by an extremely short stem.
I'm looking hard at some alloy Jeff Jones bars with quite a rearward sweep wondering if they will help shorten up the cockpit somewhat.

Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
Well this is turning into a performance.
A box with 2 rims arrived a short while ago. No sign of any frame.
The box has written on it "1 of 2". It has paperwork on it with the total value of my purchase.
A long and protracted attempt to call my local post office to get some advice was frustrating.
It seems you can no longer ring your local post office and can only ring a 13 number.
The people there tell me that each individual box must have a separate tracking number and they have no record of 2 boxes or two tracking numbers. My suggestion of two boxes taped together fell on deaf ears. Their best advice is to ring Jenson.
Surly Ogre, Carry Freedom Y-frame Trailer
Re: Buying from Jensonusa.com
What no frame
Well at least you can get the wheels built up.
I'd be taking photos and emailing Jenson with them and following up with a phone call when they opened up say 1-2hrs after opening

Many sad hearts may you lighten, And turn sorrow oft to bliss : Many dark lives may you brighten, If you'll make your motto this, . Ever lend a helping hand. James W. Johnson. Class of 1894. THE GEORGIA PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM AS SEEN BY ATLANTA UNIVERSITY STUDENTS. Among other exercises at Atlanta University is a bi-weekly class rhetorical exercise in which original compositions are written. The time allowed for the writing is three-quarters of an hour. At a recent exercise in one of the classes the subject was given out (without previous notice) : How can the Public School System of Georgia be improved ? We present below some of the compositions written within the time indicated in fulfillment of the assigned task. They are all written by young men who have taught school during the summer and the results of their experience afford interesting information upon an important topic. HOW CAN THE PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM OF GEORGIA BE IMPROVED ? (Composition No. 1.) This subject has been discussed by the educators, as well as the legislators, of Georgia for some time, and it seems that no marked improvement has been made yet. The present system of the public schools of Georgia needs many improvements, and if I were Commissioner Plenopotentiary of its affairs, I would resort to the following measures to improve it. 1. By having more competent teachers than there are now in the state. To have these, the state should establish and support a good Normal school, that is, tutoring by specialists in pedagogics. 2. By having more and better equipped school houses, Bach county should be compelled to build and equip two school houses, one for colored and one for white children, in every school district in its bounds. 3. By having state uniformity of text-books, and supplying each boy and girl with the. necessary books, so that there will be no excuse for poor people' s not sending their children to school. 4. By appropriating more money for school funds and paying the teachers a good, liberal salary, that the services of the best and most talented teachers may be secured. 5. By lengthening the school term, that each boy and girl may have a longer time to devote to books than an average of three months during the year. The above are the special points that need looking after. I do not mean, however, that they are the only things that are in order for the improvement of the Public Schools in Georgia. In addition to the above, there should be some definite time, say the first of every month, for teachers to get their pay and not compel them to wait and give such unreasonable discount in order to get some money as soon as they have finished teaching. This "average attendence" business should be done away with and the teacher should get a definite salary, and if he has more pupils than he can teach the state or county should pay the assistant teachers. ______ (Composition No. 2.) We have a very poor system of public schools in this state I must say, and there can be many improvements which will add much material good both to the teacher and pupil. We have one hundred and thirty-seven counties and there is a commissioner for each one of these counties subjected directly to the State school commissioner, who at present is Hon. S. D. Bradwell. These commissioners have the supervision of each respective county, and this is the first defect, and one of the greatest defects, in the system. Because whatever may affect the principal member of an organization, association, or body of a state, affects the whole state, Now, as I say, these commissioners have complete control of the county, and as a general thing they are men following other occupations upon which they are dependent for an existence, and since the compensation which they receive does not induce them to give much time to this work, there is a constant neglect of the duty for their most important work, and we can not charge them for this neglect, because it is the duty of each man to provide for his family. I mean to say by this that the commissioners, as a general thing, have no interest in the schools whatever more than to contract with the teacher and to receive his report when brought in. It is their duty to visit the schools and give lectures to both teacher and pupils, to give information to the former as to the manner of instruction and show him, by example, what is expected of him. In my whole life as a teacher I have known only two commissioners who have done this, yet I have taught in one place more than two years, and I have been in the field seven.

Little Green Cars Biography & News
About Little Green Cars
Drive away with Little Green Cars (Created August 8, 2013)
Rest assured that Little Green Cars is no circus act. This indie rock band from Dublin, Ireland has charmed the pants off domestic and international fans alike, having toured the U.S. and the UK extensively.
The roots of this five-piece band -- fronted by the duo of Stevie Appleby and Faye O'Rourke -- actually go back to their former band, The Revolts, which was formed in the mid 2000s. By the time the band became Little Green Cars, it was showcasing dynamite percussion and strong vocal harmonies that have drawn comparisons to the likes of Mumford & Sons and The Maccabees. Not bad company, is it?
The official first single from the band, "The John Wayne," served as the appetizer to their debut album, "Absolute Zero." That project, 48 minutes crafted with the aid of seasoned producer Markus Davis, also produced two more singles in "Harper Lee" and "My Love Took Me Down to the River to Silence Me." The former was showcased on NBC's "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" – an appearance that highlighted their ever-growing ambitions.
Now a quintet of 20-year-olds, Little Green Cars has crafted a musical narrative that given them a ton of momentum. Showcases caught the attention of media outlets like NPR and the New York Times, and the band went on to play the 2013 SXSW music festival in Austin, Texas and the Coachella music festival in California. They also recently performed at Lollapalooza, and the band will return to Chicago on October 19 to play at the Metro.

South Fayette adopts a preliminary budget
School directors in South Fayette voted 6-0 to adopt a $43,373,013 preliminary expense budget with a millage rate of 24.6361 for the 2013-14 school year. The preliminary revenue budget is at $40,911,142. School directors Teresa Burroughs, William Newcomer and William Sray were absent from the meeting.
Last year's expense budget was $37,564,812 with a millage rate of 28.8 mills. This year's preliminary millage rate of 24.6361 is adjusted because the school district cannot take a windfall from this year's assessment increases. District Director of Finance Brian Tony said the district is limited to the 2012 index of 2.1 percent and that the adjusted millage rate without taking it to the index and without any exceptions would be 23.8311 mills. However, the board voted to increase revenues by the 2.1 percent index, or 0.500 mills and voted to apply for the Public School Employees' Retirement System Contribution (PSERS) exception, which would allow millage to be increased by another 0.3050 mills. Tony said the district did not qualify for special education exceptions as it had last year.
Tony also said at the Feb. 19 meeting that the budget will continue to change.
"It's just a placeholder. We know it can continually change," he said. By state law, the district has to submit its preliminary budget to the Department of Education by Feb. 24. By Feb. 28, the district also has to publicize a notice of intent to file for referendum exceptions.
Intermediate School
The board voted unanimously to purchase the furniture for the new Intermediate School at a cost of $594,503. Superintendent Dr. Bille Rondinelli said that the district had budgeted $800,000 for the furniture. The board also voted in favor of an $1,800 change order for darker paint colors in the new school's three STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) room.
The board discussed other change orders for the STEAM rooms. One option for the STEAM rooms is to have laser-cut flooring installed at a total cost of about $28,000 for all three rooms. Another option is to have random colored floor tiles installed, which would be a cost of $7,600 total. The board is expected to make a decision on the floor at its Feb. 26 meeting.
Also at the Feb. 19 meeting, the board approved a $7,601 change order for the installation of magnetic door hold-opens in the new school, which are a fire safety measure.

Shipibo-Conibo, Amazon, Peru
Shipibo-Conibo, Amazon, Peru
Approximately 30 years ago, as many as 150 different ethno-linguistic groups could be identified living in the rainforest jungles of Peru. Today less than 30 ethnic groups remain. Among these survivors is one of the oldest ancestral groups, the Shipibo people, who now are at risk of becoming extinct. It is estimated perhaps only 35,000 Shipibo remain living, spread out in as many as 300 different family villages. For centuries, these people have survived primarily through their relationship with the jungle and through activities such as hunting, fishing and traditional agriculture.
Shipibo artisans are well known for their colorful designs on pottery and textiles. Inspired by Ayahuasca-induced visions, creation stories and mythic folklore, these refined geometrical designs are sophisticated interpretations of cosmic realities.

We Heart V&D!
Question: What do you get when you mix an ocean-view venue, perfect weather, and a bride whose day job is event design?
Answer: One Fabulous Wedding!
Veronique and Dustin, our stunning August 27th couple, left nothing out when they designed their perfect day. The stunning dress. Personalized buttons for guests (with designs proclaiming "I Heart Veronique" and "I Heart Dustin"). Cork place cards from bottles that were unique and special to each guest. A candy bar filled with lollipops, cupcakes, and favorite sweets. Bicycle details inspired by one of the couple's favorite pastimes. Colorful flip-flops for dancing the night away. Every part of the wedding was filled with sweet details and lots of love. Veronique truly outdid herself.
Congratulations, V&D! And many thanks to the incredible Denise Nicole for capturing every gorgeous moment of the day. Below are just a few of the wedding details we're still swooning over....

1* Free Play Padres.PLAYING WITH HOUSE MONEY: AAA Sports' FACEBOOK followers have affectionately dubbed him: "The Wizard Of Ice!" Some think it's because of his INCREDIBLE 2013/14 NHL season in which he finished 153-107 +$20,889 with ALL of his picks. Others think that it's because he is currently up MASSIVE units in four different sports!
The Rockies squeaked out a win last night but I expect the home side to bounce back with its best pitcher taking the mound. Colorado sends Jorge De La Rosa (0-2, 9.69 ERA) to hill the hill after a game in which he was pounded for six earned runs over just 4 1/3 innings of work. De La Rosa has a career 4.92 ERA versus the Friars. The Padres who couldn't hold a late lead in yesterday's game will send their ace to the mound in Andrew Cashner (1-1, 1.29 ERA). Cashner is coming of a near perfect game where he allowed zero runs on one hit while striking out 11 in a win over the Detroit Tigers. Cashner has given up just one run in 15 innings of work this year at Petco Park and I expect some more solid pitching here. Colorado is just 3-6 on the road this season. San Diego is playing some good ball right now with four wins in the last six games. These two pitchers are no strangers as they faced off twice last season, with the Rockies getting the better of the deal. The Rockies have already found a way to lose a lot of games this season that have been close so I feel even if De La Rosa finds his groove, the bullpen will be at risk after pitching so many innings of late. Consider laying the price on the clearly superior starter.

Stroke: costing template
A costing report and costing template have been produced by NICE to provide an implementation tool to estimate the financial impact to the NHS of implementing the clinical guideline CG068 - The diagnosis and acute management of stroke and transient ischaemic attacks
The costing report focuses on the financial impact of the recommendations that require most change in resources to implement in England. The report has been prepared in consultation with the guideline development group, and other clinicians working in this area and has been approved for publication by the Institute. It should be noted that the cost and activity assessments in the report are estimates based on a number of assumptions.
These assessments provide an indication of the likely impact of the principal recommendations and are not absolute figures. The costing report and template have not quantified the impact of recommendations that are consistent with the National Stroke Strategy published by the Department of Health in December 2007.
As part of this work, a costing template has been developed to provide health communities with the ability to assess the likely local impact of the principal recommendations in the clinical guideline based on local population. Other assumptions can be altered to better reflect local circumstances.
To support implementation a slide set has also been produced.
The Institute would welcome feedback from users to inform the development of future templates. Please email your comments to firstname.lastname@example.com

New Strategies for Diabetes TreatmentPosted: Saturday, July 14, 2012
New guidelines for treating the disease, which many experts consider a public-health crisis among millions of mostly overweight individuals, suggest doctors vary treatments depending on a patient's age, general health and even personal preferences. The recently updated guidelines recommend that doctors back away from pushing patients to get their blood sugar down to a standard targeted level. Aiming for a very low blood-sugar level might be appropriate for a younger person, for example, while older patients might do better with a less aggressive approach, according to the guidelines, published in June in the journal Diabetes Care.
Another approach gaining wider acceptance for some patients is the use of bariatric surgery, which results in dramatic weight loss. Though it comes with risk of serious complications, the operation has been shown in recent studies to lead to a rapid lowering of blood sugar, often enabling patients to go off most or all of their diabetes medicines.
Some experts also are questioning the benefits of gradually stepping up the intensity of drug therapy, a widely accepted approach that was reaffirmed in the latest guidelines. The aim is to maintain a patient's blood-sugar level while keeping up with the progressive nature of the disease. But researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, for instance, argue in a recent small study that hitting the disease early and hard is better.

As evidenced by the roller coaster ride of the investment markets over the past decade, investments also go 'on sale'' when buyers don't like their 'style' at a given time. In early 2009, many investments were out of style due to concerns about the banking system and the economy. Over the past five years, however, these worries have faded and most investment prices have risen sharply. The news media is now featuring stories about rising housing prices and stocks hitting new highs. As a result, investors may wonder, 'Are there any investment bargains left?'
The investment strategists at Thrivent Financial believe that despite the rise in the financial markets, there are three investment areas that are currently in the' bargain bin.' Although these investments have been recently 'marked down,' it appears that the selling in these sectors may be overdone. Thrivent suggests that if investors are willing to consider these currently underappreciated areas, they may be able to profit when these investments come back into 'style.'
According to Thrivent, the investments to possibly consider include:
Municipal bonds
As a result of the well-publicized fiscal problems of a few municipalities (Detroit, Chicago and Puerto Rico), many investors have sold off their municipal bond investments. This wholesale selling has put pressure on the entire sector, driving prices down on both high and low quality bonds alike. Although high quality municipal bonds usually provide lower yields than Treasury securities and are certainly not without risk, they are now offering yields that are typically 13 to 15 percent higher than their taxable counterparts. Thrivent believes that these bonds are particularly attractive for investors in higher tax brackets given the recent rise in tax rates. For investors in the highest brackets, municipal bonds are offering taxable equivalent yields approximating 10 percent.
Bank loans
According to Thrivent, floating rate bank loans represent another potential bargain even with the risk of interest rate fluctuation considered. As concerns over a change in Federal Reserve policy prompted a rise in interest rates over the summer, most fixed income investments have declined in value. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of fixed income investments decline. High yield bonds, which have been a popular income investment, are of lower credit quality and considered to be of higher risk in a rising interest rate environment. Short-term money market funds are also unattractive at current levels due to extremely low yields. By comparison, high-quality floating rate bank loans are currently yielding 5 percent and their yields reset at higher levels when interest rates rise.
European stocks
Thrivent believes that European equities are currently trading at bargain levels relative to their domestic counterparts. As the broad U. S. equity market has risen by over 20 percent in 2012, the shares of many American based companies appear to be fairly priced. Investors seem convinced that the U. S economy is improving and prospects for companies here are good. This is despite the fact that over 40 percent of the earnings for the S & P 500 companies are generated overseas.
While large European companies often derive their sales from the same international markets, investors have been unwilling to bid up their shares until an economic recovery in the region is fully visible. As a result, despite similar business fundamentals, European stocks are trading at an earnings multiple of 9X, well below their historical average of 13X. Generally, this compares favorably to the current earnings multiple of 16X for domestic stocks. European stocks are also yielding 3 percent, which compares favorably with the 2 percent yield available on U. S. equity markets. Be sure to talk to a financial professional though as foreign investments involve additional risks including greater political, economic and market instability; different accounting standards; and currency fluctuations.
As with all bargains, individual municipal bond, bank loan and European issues can be difficult or impossible for individual investors to find. Consequently, a professionally managed portfolio or mutual fund may be another option, to consider as they offer a way to participate in these 'marked down' sectors. Professional managers are constantly monitoring the markets and searching for 'good deals.' Similar to shopping at retail, individuals may profit from the assistance of a professional investment shopper. Consider them your 'personal shopper,' if you will. Regardless if you choose this option or shop on your own, it is important to talk with a financial professional for their insight into how these investments fit with your risk tolerance and overall financial goals.

16 Capacity CD Wallet
By LRoi
My only complaint about these books is that it is hard to bend the flaps of the sleeves back without damging or ripping the sleeves themselves.It is not a major problem but the product offers resistance and the disc scratches against the folded-open flap.If a person is already conscious of trying to protect the disc they are not holding the underside of the disc, so, you already have a disadvantage because you are not holding the disc in a way to make the movement any easier, and, it is hard to get your fingers to grab and lift the flap in order to fold it back.

Silver Taps
Keeping Traditions
Published: Sunday, August 29, 2010
Updated: Wednesday, July 25, 2012 19:07
Silver Taps
As an Aggie family, students honor deceased peers on the first Tuesday of every month at Silver Taps. At 10:15 p.m., Aggies quietly gather in the Academic Plaza as the Albritton Tower bells play hymns. At 10:30 p.m., the Ross Volunteer Firing Squad marches in to fire a 21-gun salute, as is typical for a fallen soldier's funeral. Buglers play a special arrangement of Silver Taps from the dome of the Academic Building. The taps are played three times: once to the north, the south and the west. The buglers do not play to the east, signifying that the sun will never rise on the deceased Aggies' life again. "Silver Taps, for me, always give me chills because it shows that no matter how big this campus gets, every single person matters," said Michael Espericueta, outreach awareness sub-chairman for Traditions Council and senior economics major. During the day before Silver Taps, the Traditions Council sets up booths in the Commons, the Quad, Wehner and in front of Koldus where students are provided with cards they can fill out to give to the mourning families.

Hampshire's Members of Youth Parliament prepare for House of Commons debate
Monday, 22 July 2013
Hampshire Members of Youth Parliament (MYP's) Zoni Asif, Sam Longmore and Deputy Members Chloe Shield and Georgia Pratt will head to Leeds at the weekend (26th - 28th July) for the 13th annual sitting of the UK Youth Parliament (UKYP) in order to prepare for a debate in the House of Commons later this year.
Zoni, 16, from Aldworth Science College, Sam, 16, from Mountbatten School, Chloe, 14, from Bridgemary School and Georgia, 14, from Yateley School will join 250 other members of the UK Youth Parliament, to debate issues that affect young people such as education, youth unemployment and the minimum wage, as well as take part in workshops and skill sessions.
The Members will also vote to decide which topics should be incorporated in the UKYP Manifesto. Following the event MYPs will vote on what issues from the Manifesto will be put to a national ballot of young people aged 11-18 across the UK to determine the UK Youth Parliament's priority campaign for 2014. The top five topics from this national ballot will then be debated at the House of Commons sitting in November. At the Commons sitting, one topic will be chosen to be UKYP's priority campaign.
The Members of Youth Parliament will be welcomed by the Speaker of the House of Commons RT Hon John Bercow MP, as well as Pam Warhurst CBE, Chair of Incredible Edible Todmorden and Glasgow Girls campaigners Emma Clifford and Roza Salih. The annual event will also feature a keynote speech from Vince Cable MP, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills.
Sam commented: "I am looking forward to meeting all MYPs from across the UK, hearing from Mr Speaker and taking part in the workshops that will help us be better in our roles."
Hampshire has four elected MYP's and four elected Deputy Members (DMYP's) who sit on the UK Youth Parliament and are elected for a two year term of office in order to represent the views of 11-18 year olds to national and local government. The current MYPs were elected into their two year term of office in March this year.

Both Sides of the Fence
A Tosa resident since 1991, Christine walks the dog, cooks but avoids housework, writes and reads, and enjoys the company of friends and strangers. Her job takes her around the state, learning about people's health. A Quaker (no, they don't wear blue hats or sell oatmeal or motor oil), she has been known to stand on both sides of the political and philosophic fence at the same time, which is very uncomfortable when you think about it. She writes about pretty much whatever stops in to visit her busy mind at the moment. One reader described her as "incredibly opinionated but not judgmental." That sounds like a good thing to strive for!
The weary bones of Potter's Field
Potter Road ends where the Research Park begins, a sprawling cluster of mostly forgettable buildings in which the work of progress is done. But if you thread through the unpeopled streets, under Highway 45, and into the Milwaukee County Grounds, you still might find yourself in a tiny fragment of Wauwatosa's "Potter's Field," a burial ground for the poor and nameless.
Wisconsin supreme court race: written by Grisham
If watching political ads makes you feel like you need a shower, we're at the same heath club. It's bad enough on the executive and legislative sides of our government triangle. But when distortions, exaggerations, misrepresentations, and plain old lies come into play for judicial campaigns, the icky-ness factor doubles.
Sex, drugs, and county elections in Wauwatosa
I thought I'd toss in a totally irrelevant teaser to remind you that you'll also get to vote for county executive and supervisor on April 1. As far as I know, the only scandal is the lack of voter interest here in Milwaukee County elections.
Just in case you didn't know, Lena Taylor is running against Scott Walker for county exec, and in Tosa, Daniel Wycklendt is opposing incumbent Lynn De Bruin in the 15th District.
On Tuesday, March 11, a group of advocacy and human service organizations are hosting a briefing session and dialogue with county supervisor candidates specifically about health and human services. That's right: the county does more than parks and buses. It also provides critical services for older people, children, people with disabilities or mental health concerns, and more. Please join us from 6:30 - 8:30 at Summit Place, 6737 W. Washington Place, West Allis, in the 1st floor conference room.
"Call me Eli--erm, George Fox"
I'm sure many of you are watching the train wreck of the sanctimonious Governor Eliot Spitzer with the same degree of fascination and disgust I am. It's like watching Jerry Springer's show, only we get to say we're following the news.
It turns out that Client #9 for the inflated-price rent-a-mistresses at the Emperor's Club also went by the name "George Fox." Which offends Quakers everywhere. For us, it's sort of like appropriating "Martin Luther" or "St. Francis of Assisi" as your sin alias.
Getting my mayoral campaign rant on
Alice Roosevelt Longworth, daughter of Teddy Roosevelt, had an embroidered pillow on her settee that said "If you haven't got anything good to say about a person, come sit next to me."
I was going to analyze the candidates' website vision statements. But there are no rewards in blogdom for doing the hard work, so do your own! Plus I'm feeling cross. So tonight is take no prisoners night.
Bodies on the parkway
Walking along the Underwood Parkway, Idgy and I came upon a section of yellow crime scene tape.
Of course, it wasn't surrounding a crime scene. It was just part of the jetsam tossed up by the receding snows. Not the best sign of spring, but a sure thing.
Why be negative about negativity?
When it comes to political candidates, most of us are pretty clear about what we believe makes a good one. There's really not much variety in those beliefs. They fall into the pot labeled "conservative" or the one labeled "liberal," with a few variants and outliers.
From my pot, your pot doesn't make any sense at all. You can say the same about me. So we argue back and forth the same old predictable arguments and stay firmly planted wherever we were in the first place.
Six of ten on the record books
This is the second snowiest winter in Milwaukee's history, according to this morning's Journal Sentinel.
I'm not surprised, having lived through six of the top ten snowy winters. And if that doesn't make a person feel old, I don't know what does.
In the 'hood: mortgages and auto repairs
The past two weeks have been full of encounters that could have been painful--but weren't. Trips to auto repair shops and trips to refinance a mortgage at a higher interest rate aren't on anybody's top ten list of life experiences. But both neighborhood trips were painless, even pleasant.
Kudos to Landry's Automotive Service Station at 115th and Bluemound and Central States Mortgage on North Avenue across from Mayfair Mall.
Why we vote the way we vote
Everyone is pretty sure that we vote for candidates based on rational decision-making. But the research says we're not rational. Instead, we are rationalizers. We hunt and sift for good sounding reasons for our decisions after we've already made them.
That sounds about right to me. Researcher Richard Lau says that the real reasons for choosing as we do are:
- The candidate shares our biases.
- Our neighbors say nice things about them.

NUMBER 97. ATLANTA, GEORGIA. JANUARY, 1899. (Thirtieth Year.) ATLANTA UNIVERSITY. The higher education of carefully selected Negro young men and women, in both academic and industrial lines, is emphasized by this Institution as necessary for the elementary and industrial training of the masses. "Men of light and leading" in other spheres of activity are also greatly needed by the race that has so long sat in darkness. Earnestly Christian, as required by its charter, yet entirely unsectarian, the Institution is controlled solely by its own board of trustees, on which several denominations are represented. Some 300 students are enrolled under 23 officers and teachers. From the college and normal courses 333 graduates have been sent out, nearly all of whom have readily found permanent employment in teaching or other useful occupations. Situated only about seventy miles from the centre of the Negro population of the country, in one of the largest Southern cities, and at the railroad centre of the South, its location is of strategic importance for promoting the educational advancement of the South. Its plant includes sixty-five acres of land, Jour large brick buildings, library of 10, 400 volumes, apparatus and other equipment worth not less than $250, 000. With practically no endowment, with no aid from public or denominational funds, receiving about one-fourth of its support from its own students, the Institution appeals for an endowment of $500, 000, and, until that is secured, for $25, 000 annually to meet current expenses. Gifts of any amount are welcome, but special appeal is made for subscriptions of $100 and upwards, and for $40 scholarships. Remittances may be addressed to Pres. Horace Bumstead, D. D., Atlanta, Ga. Mr. H. W. Leland, our Instructor in Mechanic Arts, was married at Orange, Mass., Dec. 27, to Miss Gertrude J. Durkee of that place. The sociable on the night of the 26th was of more than usual interest. The place was the gymnasium, and refreshments added to the zest of the occasion. The fall term closed December 23, and the winter term began December 26. Judging from the records, the past term was one of more than usual success in scholarship as well as in numbers. On the occasion of the Atlanta Peace Jubilee, December 14 and 15, we had half holidays both afternoons, thus being able to attend all public festivities connected with President McKinley's visit to this city. Miss Hosmer, with her sister Miss Abbie S. Hosmer, who had been here with her nearby six weeks, left for her home December 22. Mr Leland accompanied them. Miss Hosmer endured the journey well, and is still slowly improving. A chorus of sixteen voices, from this institution, furnished part of the music at the emancipation exercises at Bethel A. M. E. Church, January 2. The orator was Rev. S. X. Floyd ('91). Mr. Floyd stopped with us while in the city. The last addition to the equipment of the gymnasium has been a gift of bracket lamps, so that the room can be used for exercise or class work after night fall. The hour before supper is almost the only time of day in which any large number of boys have their time at their own disposal. Our Graduates. A brief statement of prominent positions held by our graduates in educational work will be both suggestive and interesting. To this list might be added the names of thirteen principals of public grammar schools, and of twenty teachers in schools above the grammar grade. College Presidents: Richard R. Wright ('76), State Industrial College, Savannah. Nathaniel W. Collier ('94), Fla. Bapt. Coll., Jacksonville, Fla. College Professors: William H. Crogman ('76), Clark University, Atlanta. Oswell A. Combs ('82), Morris Brown College, Atlanta. Benjamin F. Allen ('94), Lincoln Univ., Jefferson City, Mo. George F. Smith ('97), Lincoln Univ., Jefferson City, Mo. Heads of Departments: Edgar J. Penney ('76), Theol.,N. and I.Inst.,Tuskegee,Ala. Henry A.Hunt ('90), Ind'st., Biddle Univ.,Charlotte,N.C. Principals of Normal and High Schools: Lucy C. Laney ('73), Haines Institute, Augusta.

All students are invited to become members of the "Students' Society." This organization aims at the promotion of the literary and general culture that results from practice in public speaking and parliamentary procedure.
The Athletic Association is active not only in promoting games and out of door sports, but it is also taking an interest in other phases of physical education.
The student body. of the Branch Normal is self-governing. An organization known as the "Branch Normal School City" has been effected, its functions being similar to those of cities of the first class. Through this government the students make their own laws and enforce them. By thus affording a very practical training in civics, the system does much in preparing the students for the greater duties imposed by citizenship.
To further the musical interests of the school, especially in the way of chorus and glee singing, a society known as "The Choral" has been organized. All students of the Normal are eligible to membership.
The President and Faculty of the University will co-operate with the instructors of the Branch Normal School in giving a course of public lectures during the winter months.
These lectures will be on various scientific, literary, and philosophical subjects of popular interest, the aim being to give the citizens generally some of the educational advantages of the Normal School. Lectures illustrated with stereopticon views will be given frequently.
Students who wish to study music in addition to that offered in the regular course and given in the singing clubs, can by private arrangement, secure the services of a competent instructor in instrumental music and vocal training.
No tuition is charged in either the preparatory course, or the regular normal course, but an annual registration fee of $5.00 is required.
Teachers wishing to enter after the close of the public schools, may do so any time after April 1st by paying a registration fee of $2.50.
