Skip to comments.Info on Cheap Internet Wanted
Posted on 01/09/2013 12:08:59 PM PST by Terry Mross
I'm tired of the Comcast monopoly.
So, does anyone know of a cheap internet provider (without need of a phone line) that is available in NW Houston?
Uverse isn't bad—they'll provide internet-only, at least.
Comcast doesn't offer Internet only? That must be a recent change. I use Earthlink (which still uses the Comcast cable for delivery).
Go to centurylink.com and check your zip code.
I just talked with them, and we can drop our bundle ($170 mo.), and just have internet only for $30 mo.
If smarttalk works for our cells, we'll drop verizon too, cutting our media bills in half.
Comcast is the Brawndo of this century. I switched to AT&T only out of frustration. Comcast is beyond horrible. I have only internet from AT&T. Television is Direct TV, who teams up with the superior custmer service and professionalism of AT&T to offer options here in Memphis over the "C" word.
If you do switch, read the fine print.
Wireless, for the same price, is typically restricted to 5gb/month downloads. Over that is extra charge.
Telephone companies (such as CenturyLink) are DSL, so their 'speed' is actually less than cable.
My mid-range cable ($55/month) allow for upwards of 20mbps download speeds and 200gb/month download. A lesser package is about $35/month with 5mpbs download and 50gb/month download.
If you use services such as Netflix and watch HD movies, those download amounts could be very important.
Net zero
I live in Southaven and out Comcast is close to $95 for internet only, since we have Direct. Is the AT&T as fast as Comcast?
I have Comcast and I have only the Internet, no cable TV or phone. I refuse to get either until their rates come down, and I told so when I had the TV turned off.
What kind of speed and what price range?
It would seem so. I have a guest house and the range on the AT&T is slightly less than the comcast service, causing some speed issues on our second house served off the one router. I bought a repeater or booster. My tennant says it's good now.
What kind of speed and what price range?
AT&T is $39 for internet and phone. I don't even have the phone connected. So, it's $39 for just internet and then Direct TV charges me $59 / mo for satellite TV service w/ DVR.
Net Zero is indeed inexpensive, no-frills for ten bucks a month. There are two caveats however, dialup speed, and the additional cost for a landline, which when combined can equal the cost of the cheapest high-speed plan. So it's a wash.
I dumped Comcast for Centurylink in December.
Comcast does too have Internet only. I've been an Internet only customer for almost ten years. Btw I pay 19.95/mo for my access as I complain loudly when they try raising my bill. AT&T is an option for me, which I threaten to go to every time they try jacking up my bill.
I know a business owner that wanted to order Comcast internet and phone for his office. But not TV. The way in which Comcast (ugh)"Customer Service" people reacted to this you'd think he had asked for a full-time dedicated microwave link with Alpha Centauri.
What, you want us to break the bundle? We can't break the bundle. You don't want television? Nobody doesn't want television. Etc. etc. etc.
With Comcast the Customer is Always WRONG!
Can you do Netflix on Centurylink, do you know?
We want to get rid of Commycast too.
we dumped comcast last summer for centurylink at $30 a month, and i watch netflix all the time over it. The netflix servers are less reliable than centurylink.
one caveat: the customer service is somewhere in tijuana, based on my experience, and they had 15 minutes of training in how to solve technical problems. they don't know how to help me set up my non-centurylink email to come in thru my centurylink browser...they use different ports.
but cheap was the criterion, so i save maybe almost $100 a month now and put up with it.
I have had Comcast for probably 7 or 8 years now. I had the "triple play" package with HD TV and finally got tired of calling them every year to "cancel" in order to get the new "special" rate so I called to drop my home phone and TV part of my triple play package. I only wanted the internet part because it was blazing fast and ALWAYS working. I have never had a problem with the Comcast internet so I decided to pay for what I have experienced as a good product.
When I called to drop all but internet service they told me the "double play" package (Internet and digital/non-HD TV) was cheaper than internet only by $5. So I pay around $80 per month for their double play package. Plus they offered HD free for 6 months which I will see if they will continue after the 6 months is up. I probably won't even waste my time calling them after the 6 months is up and just wait for the HD to go away as I don't even use the TV part of their service. I have a special "sweet" deal with DirecTV right now for my TV service.
well there's always borrowing your neighbors internet.
Centurylink in Seattle offers unlimited internet for `9.95 month, but you have to bundle with unlimited nationwide land-line service.
Still a good deal, I pay 60 a month for Inet and Phone.
Alot of folks are dropping land lines for cell service, PERISH THE THOUGHT!
The cell phone industry is probably near the biggest rip-off ever - all the money, all the phones with all their BS apps, and the actual voice communication part is barely acceptable, at best.
I do have a cell phone, it's a miracle I've avoided chucking that junk in the river!
(so far)!!
I signed up for "Basic DSL for Life" around five years ago for $14.95/month; they're still honoring even after Frontier took over from Verizon. I actually don't want higher speed service as we generally keep the kids off videos and discourage downloads. 768 Kbps on a good day and less in the evening is a great way to keep the videos jerky and halting. hahaha No iPhones either hahahaha
I have this....never will do comcast again!!!!
50.00 month...
Call Comcast and cancel the phone & TV, keep the Internet.
I only have their data service. It's a bit pricy at $65/mo but fast and no apparent cap. Use your cell phones for voice service, and get an AppleTV + Netflix + Hulu for video, on demand, few or no ads.
While not hell-bent on dumping Comcast, I'm always watching for a viable alternative.
They told me they only have the "double" deal. Maybe for new customers they'll give you internet only.
I can get ATT for the same deal as yours. Goes to $45 after six months.
Thanks to everyone.
Isn't it interesting that comcast owns one satelite service and ATT owns the other. And I believe those two get are in collusion. Every politician in this country is bought and paid for.
In my zip code internet only is $39 then jumps to $45 after six months. So, you can see, the prices are different for different locations. They're probably a lot cheaper in Sheila Jackson Lee's part of Houston than they are in The Woodlands.
Aaah,The Woodlands.
Spent a week there visiting friends.
Going to look into it. Comcast sucks.
How 'bout this? In my area they're now offering cable and internet for $69.99 for 12 months. And it SAYS even for existing customers. We'll call them tomorrow and get the fine print.
It's sad that these monopolies exist. And they exist because they've bought all the politicians. I don't believe there's one who can't be bought.
When you've gone without TV for a while you don't want it back. I get "add cable TV to your Internet for $2/mo!" offers, but have no interest.
This is a good site for information.
Type in your zip code and go.
your local library might have free internet, both desktops and wi-fi.
We just switched from Comcast to AT&T U-verse. Not only is it less expensive than Comcast, but also it qualifies us for a 12% discount on our AT&T cellular service.
If you have a laptop, you essentially have full internet connectivity anywhere you might go.
They also have a 4G mobile hotspot and a similar plan I've been looking into, but the only hesitation I've had so far is that the 3G has, and continues to serve all my needs adequately...
New info! As I said, I have "triple play" with Comcast for $117.00 a month. On the internet there is an offer of $69 per month for new or EXISTING customers for internet and cable for 6 months. Guess what. The $69 offer for EXISTING customers is only for EXISTING customers who already have internet. But I have to pay $89 per month PLUS it's for 24 months. So, if I drop the phone land line my charges drop by around $20 but I have to agree to a 24 month contract with a $350 early cancellation fee.
My wife argued on the phone this morning for over 3 hours. All we get is "I'm sorry but there's nothing I can do."
So, bottom line, if I don't find something from one of the places you guys are suggesting, I'm going off the grid completely.
U-Verse isn't available in my area. They got together with Comcast and divided up the territories.
I may be doing that. Drive to the library once a month. ha!
Centurylink is not available in my area. From what I've learned the only ISPs in my area are ATT and Comcast. That's wny I use the word "monopoly".

Joel Salatin, the farmer featured in this clip (jump to the 4:20 mark) from the 2008 documentary Food, Inc. and owner of Polyface Farms, has found a way to be profitable while staying true to his family's ideal that nature's design is still the best pattern for the biological world. After hearing Ellen Davis speak so eloquently about stewardship of land, I couldn't help but think of his words and Professor Davis' advice on getting informed about how our food is produced:
Ms. Tippett: So apparently my senior editor, Trent, is Tweeting this conversation we're having, and he has had a question come in from a student of yours who loves you …So it is how do city dwellers, urbanites, relate to an agrarian mindset without romanticizing it?
Prof. Davis: I think the best way to do that is to listen to farmers and to meet farmers. As we've been talking about, that's easy to do now because there probably isn't an urban area —
Ms. Tippett: Right. They're in your city. Right.
Prof. Davis: Yeah, exactly. They're in our city. So talk to them and find out what they're doing, what their hopes are, and also what their struggles are. And I don't know any farmer who isn't struggling. And it doesn't matter what model of farming they're using. If they're using small farming, trying to get off the grid, or if they are involved in industrial farming, I don't know any of them who are not struggling and to some degree suffering. So I think that's the most important thing that we can do in order not to romanticize it. I'd also suggest that you can read some of what is happening in new modes of agricultural research. Because some people think that when I or others are talking about agrarianism, we're sort of talking about going back a hundred years, if not 2,000 years. But it's not an exercise in nostalgia.

District 88 may consider high school addition
NEW ULM – During its regular meeting Thursday, the District 88 School Board will consider a 10-year plan for facilities that calls for board approval of a bond issue for a high school addition.
Board approval, which would happen in 2013-14, would include: preparation for sale of the District Administrative Center (DAC), athletic field development as a contest site, and space planning for gymnastics. It would also involve exploring plans for the redesign of existing shop space to be converted into an engineering and technology center.
The plan would entail the following, also during the upcoming year:
* development of a communications plan for the bond;
* establishment of a task force of staff, community members, parents and students;
* soliciting input from community, parents, students and staff on needs and design;
* commissioning an engineering/architectural draft of building addition plans;
* preparing/submitting necessary paperwork to the Minnesota Department of Education for a building addition;
* developing a financing plan for the proposed addition;
* abandoning the DAC as office space; and
* sale of the DAC.
Contingent upon the plan's approval, a bond referendum would be conducted in the fall of 2014, with a possible construction start in the spring of 2015. During 2014-15, the district would also develop a plan for the relocation of grade levels from one building to another.
"The facilities committee has been working on a decade plan for the district facilities for the past year," says Superintendent Jeff Bertrang in introductory remarks. "Over the course of the past few months, the plan has more definition and sequencing of activities. We have met with outside agencies and architects on the way ahead, and we have met with groups interested in the DAC property.
"After the plan is reviewed, the committee would like feedback, recommendations and possibly concurrence of the plan. Approval of the plan would mean we move forward to initiate the next steps of the plan."
During its meeting, the board will also consider the hire of a new technology director, who will replace relocating Eric Simmons, and other staff, depository and line-of-credit-related resolutions, and several other matters.
The board meets at 7 p.m. at the DAC.

Watch events live from the U.S. Center in Copenhagen. Follow the U.S. Center on YouTube and Flickr.About the Author: Susan Elbow serves at the U.S. Mission to the European Union. She is currently on assignment at the U.S. Center in Copenhagen."This is Susan Elbow with the State Department at the United Nations Conference on Climate Change in Copenhagen. Today, I'm standing in one of the large plenary halls, where all of the formal parts of the conference take place. It is exactly in a room like this one, only much, much larger, where President Obama will address the conference tomorrow.
For those of us who work for the State Department, today was particularly exciting because our boss, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton arrived in the wee hours of the morning. She landed in a cold and snowy Denmark and has had a pretty full schedule since then. She has been meeting with her counterparts, other foreign ministers, and she gave a press conference to a packed house. The Secretary said that it is an undeniable and unforgiving fact that climate change threatens our security and our economy as well as the environment. She acknowledged that the talks have been difficult and she urged the parties to the conference to reach to find common ground and take an historic step. Toward that end she announced that the United States was prepared to work together with other countries to jointly mobilize 100 billion dollars a year by 2020 to help developing countries address the effects of climate change. As I was walking out of the press conference, I overheard a journalist phoning in the headline 'U.S. attempts to rescue climate negotiations from the brink of failure.'
We're so often portrayed as the villain, it was really heartening to hear someone perceiving our actions as positive. It is no secret that the secretary is a rock-star around the world, and so pictures from the press conference immediately showed up on the front pages of websites and other media outlets. Tomorrow President Obama addresses the conference in what I've been told will be the most watched session ever. And tomorrow is also the last day of the conference, so check in with me one more time as I tell you about reactions to the President's presentation and to the final outcome of the conference."
Zharkov in U.S.A. writes:
Pledging money that isn't hers to pledge is typical, but as the Beatles and Elliot Spitzer discovered, money can't buy you love.
If you are looking for the world to love us again, why not pledge to end CIA covert ops against other people's elected governments?
Suspicions of CIA involvement in the Mumbai bombing are one example of why the CIA should be limited to gathering intel and not running covert ops against foreign governments.
Spying in foreign nations is necessary - all governments do it - but murder is completely unacceptable and a violation of U.S. laws against foreign assassinations.
Covert ops inevitably lead to murder even if accidental and unintended. The innocent Iranian girl who was killed during Iranian protests is a common outcome. Covert ops usually cause great harm and suspicion of the U.S. government, as the overthrow of the two prior governments of Iran have proven.
America is not officially at war with India despite Mumbai, and if the CIA is involved, then we have a much bigger problem inside our own government than a mere "climate hoax" on the public.

Our Ecological Footprint work was honored with two significant prizes last month in Rio de Janeiro.
On June 17, Japan's Asahi Glass Foundation awarded the prestigious Blue Planet Prize to Mathis Wackernagel, Global Footprint Network's president, and Bill Rees, Professor Emeritus at the University of British Columbia, in recognition of their work in developing the Ecological Footprint accounting system. Thomas Lovejoy, Professor at George Mason University, shared the award for his pioneering work in biodiversity conservation, especially in his research on how human-caused habitat fragmentation causes biodiversity loss.
The Blue Planet Prize, established in 1992 to recognize scientific research that contributes to solving global environmental problems, is today regarded as one of the world's premier environmental prizes. Wackernagel is donating his $300,000 share of the prize money to Global Footprint Network, and he invites supporters to help match this gift to further advance Ecological Footprint work.
Two days after the Blue Planet ceremony, which was covered generously by National Geographic, Wackernagel and Rees received the Kenneth E. Boulding Award, the world's top honor in the field of ecological economics.
The Boulding Award is given every two years by the International Society for Ecological Economics (ISEE) to "outstanding individuals who have contributed original and seminal approaches that have furthered our understanding of the interfaces between the social, ecological, ethical, economic and political dimensions of our world."
"The Ecological Footprint is certainly one of the most important and influential measurement and communication tools of the century," Bhutan Prime Minister Jigmi Thinley said in his congratulatory remarks at the ISEE conference. "It is without question one of the most powerful ways to put the responsibility for sustainability firmly on all our shoulders through awareness of every resource we consume and every nuance of our behaviours and lifestyles."
(See the full text of the prime minister's speech here.)
Global Footprint Network congratulates all three honorees for their work in helping the world chart a sustainable future. This global recognition of Ecological Footprint accounting and biodiversity loss will help spur governments to track resource trends and assess the value of ecological assets, identify the risks associated with ecological deficits, and set policy that is informed by ecological reality.

*Territory is a big deal to Chris Bosh. Although he plays in Florida, he swears his residence is in Texas.
Although he bought a 12,000 square-foot home in Biscayne Bay in 2010 for $12.5 million, he says the seven-bedroom eight bath home with an infinity pool and an elevator isn't really his home home. It's just, you know… a spot to stay in while working.
According to Jose Lambiet's Gossip Extra, the Miami Heat star claims in recent court papers in Orlando, where he is in a money battle against his baby's mama, that he really lives in a different state. He's actually attempting to gyp the system by using his Texas address in a lower middle class neighborhood in the Dallas area.
His 1,900 square-foot Texas home is worth $73,000.
Will it be a convincing argument in court? It's hard to tell; especially because things don't appear to be in his favor being that he's an $18-million-a-year earning athlete.
If he does win the argument, however, he would only have to pay $2,600 a month for child support for his little girl.
But if the judge doesn't read through the lines, he'll have to pay three-percent of his monthly income … $30,000 a month to Allison Mathis, his baby mama, er, we mean his baby daughter.
Mathis' lawyer, Jane E. Carey, stated: "He's fighting like a dog to remain a Texas resident. It is just not true that he lives in Texas. Even his son was born (in May) in Miami."

Anne Hathaway stepped out in New York today with her husband, half her hair scraped back in a half ponytail. It's long enough now. She's been wearing a long hair wig on the set of The Intern. I totally forgot what her face looks like when it's being framed. So different. And younger I think? She can do both, easily. Full Story
Super serious space movie
Do you remember the fake Anna Scott movie in Notting Hill? It was like a super serious space movie, and the little in-movie clip was of Anna Scott looking super serious, in space. That's what I thought of as I watched the first trailer fir Christopher Nolan's latest, Interstellar. It looks like a super serious space movie—it looks like Notting Hill. Full Story

Two recommendations for Mr. Stevens: Lose the cat, clean your firearms.
[He's right, Evil and its twin Tyranny are afoot in the land.]
Just sent a link to the youtube video via e-mail to all friends.
That's the 1st thing I thought of as well; however, I started to think perhaps those are the ones he "wants" them to know about.
Those damn boating accidents and all.
Youtube version.
Thanks for the direct link.
This guy needs to run for office. I would vote for him.
God bless our fellow patriots in every section of the country, especially in those regions where the Constitution is being challenged by conniving politicians.
Skeeter says that guy doesn't care about kids.
Thankyou for this, just saw the tape and I wonder if this man could be persvaded to apear infront of the US senate?
clearly he is much better than we have seen so far. good for you sir
DTogo says he's a FReeper!
Incredible gentleman.
Very Cool!
Dang! Finally something that put an actual smile on my face today. This guy has guts, is well-spoken, and knows his civics. Great job, my hat is off to you!
had to be Ct, didn't look like any US Congress hearing room I've ever been to or seen. Mr. Stevens was just perfect.
Maybe he needs to be IN the US Senate, he seems like what we need, a conservative that is not afraid to tell it how it is.

The Nazis will have him issue a nation-wide apology within 24 hours where he will also advance the cause of gun seizure. /s
Sweetness!! Wish our Congress Critters in every state and in DC would think long and hard about the truths this wonderful man said. We need more like him!!
He speaks for the millions who are descended from the founders of the country.
Most late-comers seem to be slaves. Just looking for the next "Massuh".
They found him, too...
Thanks for the direct link this patriot nails it!
That was Connecticut's public hearing on "gun violence". We are all Mr. Stevens now.

Thank you, Mr. Stevens!! Well stated! Please say this again at the national level!!
so today illegals can come here because we have so many
drugs should be legal because people have drugs
anal feces sex homo's now get benefits and think they;re married
but states enforcing immigration laws are sued,
gun owners , legal ones are told they;re now criminals
Lunatics and hypocrites have taken over and good for this man to stand up as we all know this socialist admin will be sending the brown shirts after him
iF the Egyptians can march and camp out, if the French can march nearly a million of them for normal marriage then it's time for millions of us to camp outside the white house and let the international cameras see how America is being run by a tyrant and his brown shirt NAZI;'s
It only takes a spark to get a fire going.
We all need to be a spark.
Just like Bill Stevens, a real American.
It's better NOT to do that. The same article appears under various headlines. Search words they should all have in common: Sandy Hook Father or Dad.
Now that man was a genuine CITIZEN!
You're right on both counts.
God bless and keep you.
Yesterday, I sent the link to my family members and also to friends.
He seems to be addressing a legislative panel in Connecticutt, but tye message needs to be sent to every state AND especially D.C.
Thank you Lord, for courage.
If people aren't using the exact title, they should be.
Besides, I haven't seen this on FR, which his why I used title search...perhaps I missed it.
However, such a positive thing should be posted twice! =)
By the look at thread responses, most have not seen the video.
I would not be surprised!!
Amen! A ticked off one too, as we all are!
I don't have a problem with multiple posts. I usually miss the first one because I am at work or out doing some project.
If you are trying to NOT duplicate, sure, search for the exact title, but you will miss some of them. You also need to search the way I mentioned.
I see posts where a person says they didn't find any duplicates and someone posts five or six that have the same content but different titles. Happens fairly often on FR.
But, as I said, I'm OK with it since I am not on here 24 hours a day.

Hi, All.
I have been drinking tea since I was a child. I am originally from Georgia (deep South) and was raised on Lipton sweet tea ... And when I say sweet, I mean 2 cps of sugar/pitcher. Awful stuff.
I started getting into loose leaf tea about 20 years ago when I worked at a coffee/Teahouse in Los Angeles. Back then my favorite teas were Oolongs and Assam, Ceylon, Keemum ... but that was then.
Now, my favorite is Pu erh! I am just learning about them and having a great time. love the deep flavors and rich experience a cup/cups bring.
I am a newbie and I am so happy to have found this awesome forum. I just received my new Gaiwan and tomorrow morning I am looking forward to "tribute ripe" from Bana Tea. Ripe Pu erh 2004, mixed harvest. I also have "fragrant spring" 2010, raw.
I am waiting for 2011 Douji "Phoenix Tour" ripe cake. 357 grams from ChaDao ...Yunnan Yiwu Zhengzhou Shan Mt. Tea co.
Thinking about many different cakes ... Maybe 2008 Menghai Boyou "secret life" shu
Or ... Tong - Menghai 7542 or "big classic" or 2006 Haiwan raw brick
Or Shengs ... 7542?.. 2004 Haiwan Lao Tong
I think I will just order samples, if I can resist the cakes, and see what I really like.

While weapons play a big role in your adventure in the city of Columbia, they aren't the only thing that can hel you reach your final objective in Bioshock: Infinite. Vigors are found during the game and they will too help you in your journey, granting you some special and unique powers.
If you have played the first Bioshock game you probably know how the Vigors work: once obtained, they'll provide the user with a unique and special ability. Vigors, however, can't be used freely: being able to do would really break the game and make it way too easy on the standard difficulty setting. Players are able to use Vigors only when they have enough Salts, a limited resource represented by a blue meter found at the bottom of the screen. Even the Salts mechanic is not too different from something found in the first entry of the series: Bioshock veterans will surely remember the Eve. In the end Salts gives power to Vigors, allowing you to use them: an empty power bar means that you won't be able to use them until you replenish said bar.
There are a total of eight Vigors inside the game: they have two different uses, a basic one and a trap one. To use the regular Vigor just tap the Vigors button; to use the trap version of each Vigors, simply keep the button pressed. Just like regular weapons, Vigors can be upgraded by purchasing modifications at the Veni Vidi Vigor Vending machines.
Also note that all enemies have some sorts of resistance and weakness to certain Vigors: if you can't seem to defeat an enemy with a specific Vigor in use, make sure to change it to see if the situation improves. The only enemies who doesn't come with Vigors resistances and weaknesses are the Founder's Police, the most basic enemy you'll encounter in the game and the Beasts. All the other enemies may have a normal resistance to Vigors, a 200% weakness, meaning you'll do double damage to them with the Vigor in use, a 50%, meaning you'll do half the damage on the enemy with a specific Vigor in use and immunity, meaning that you won't be able to damage the enemy with a specific Vigor in use.

Strategies for Keeping Children Safe at your Club
The Safeguarding Children program developed by the Australian Childhood Foundation has created seven unique strategies to help your sports club or association keep children and young people safe from abuse and exploitation by staff, volunteers or other relevant related individuals.
The strategies are evidence-based and form an important part of the Safeguarding Children organisational accreditation scheme.
While strategies are quite easy to understand they can involve quite a comprehensive review and assessment of your club or association's policies and procedures that protect children.
The strategies are:
1: A commitment to safeguarding children Strategy
2: Personal roles and conduct Strategy
3: Recruitment and screening practices Strategy
4: Personal induction and training Strategy
5: Involving children and parents Strategy
6: Child abuse reporting and allegations Strategy
7: Supporting a child-safe culture.
To assist you in starting this process and fleshing out some of the details for each of the strategies, Play by the Rules has designed a free template in the form of a PowerPoint presentation. The presentation is ready to use, provides example strategy statements, and can serve as a planning document as well as a presentation/workshop tool. You can download the presentation template at www.playbytherules.net.au/legal-stuff/child-protection
For more details on these strategies and to register for the full online Safeguarding Children program visit http://safeguardingchildren.com.au
Common Issues
There are some common issues that arise and which MPIOs need to be aware of:
Insufficient Game Time
This is not a child protection issue and can be resolved through mediation. It is a decision for the coach of a team to determine how much game time players receive however some clubs do have policies relating to amateur football game time. Contact your local club to enquire whether they have a game time policy.
Football is a team sport and time on the bench is an accepted part of being in a football team. The strategies used by coaches are many and varied in their efforts to try and provide players with fair game time but equal time is not always possible particularly where the games are closely contested and where player fitness, endurance, ability and team cohesion are factors in player selection, rotation and positioning.
Non Selection in team or squad
This is not a child protection issue. The selection of players is a decision for selectors. Players are generally selected into teams and squads based on skill, strength, stamina, physique, fitness, sportsmanship, commitment and a willingness and ability to learn and improve. A good behaviour record both on and off the field, is also beneficial.
Our team is not winning - my child is not scoring goals
It is interesting to note that a study on children's sport found that the top 3 reasons children play amateur sport are: To make friends; To have fun; and To play the game.
Winning is not always a priority for children and just playing with their friends, having fun and kicking the ball is often what they base their good experience on. Parents should support their children and encourage good sportsmanship no matter the outcome of the game - win, lose or draw.
Sport is often the only outlet a child has from the pressures of school and life in general so it is important to ensure they are allowed to enjoy their football and have a good experience.
Failure to release a player from a contract
This is not a child protection issue and is a matter for resolution between the club and the player involved.
Behaviour of the Coach
Inappropriate behaviour in football is unacceptable and clubs and associations are responsible for taking appropriate action where they consider the behaviour of their team officials to be in breach of the Coaches Code of Conduct. Associations also have a level of jurisdiction over coaches and team officials which can result in those persons appearing before the tribunal and sanctions applied.
Penalties imposed for serious breaches of the Code of Conduct can include a lifetime ban from football.
Options for Breaches of the Code of Conduct
Options which clubs may consider when responding to breaches of the Coaches Code of Conduct:
- Speaking with the coach about their behaviour
- Monitoring the coach to observe the reported behaviour
- Mentoring the coach on how to improve his/her behaviour
- Mediation between the aggrieved parties
- Required to complete the Play By The Rules on-line training
- Required to complete an accredited coaching course at Football NSW
- Issue of a written warning to the coach about their behaviour
- Taking disciplinary action
- Suspending the coach from his/her duties for a period of time
- Dismissing the coach
OR a combination of these. Any action taken is at the discretion of the club or tribunal. The complainant DOES NOT determine the penalty. An offender should also consider offering an apology as this can often result in a favourable outcome.
Complaint Options
It is up to a complainant to decide if they wish to proceed with a complaint. If a person is unsure what to do then they may consider the following options:
Do nothing
Consider what may happen if nothing is done.
Direct Approach
Consider whether speaking to the person directly may resolve the matter. If the person knows about the concerns they may recognise the error of their ways and alter their behviour. In most cases it is only fair that the person is provided with an opportunity to resolve the problem themselves.
Seek mediation
Mediation is where a club official or another person may act as a mediator between to two parties involved. For example: If a parent is having a problem with a coach, a meeting may be arranged between the parent and the coach with a club official acting as mediator. This way the problem can be discussed and resolved politely.
Verbal Complaint
The matter could be discussed with the MPIO, Secretary, President or another official of the club. This may provide the club an opportunity to monitor the situation. A club may request that a written complaint be lodged before they take any further action.
Complaint by a child
Where a verbal complaint is made by a child to an adult then the adult is obliged to note and report the complaint. A complaint by a child should never be ignored. Where the safety or welfare of a child is of concern, these matters should be reported to Football NSW. Reports of child abuse or welfare concerns of a child can also be reported to NSW Family and Community Services or phone 132 111 (24hr helpline).
Official Complaint
An official complaint should be in writing and addressed to the Club Secretary. The person who signs the complaint must be able to be identified and be contactable. It is important to note that the person being complained about will be informed of the complaint and may be provided with a copy of the complaint as it is their right to be notified of any complaint made against them. An unsigned complaint, anonymous complaint or a rumour cannot be acted upon.
Complaint Handling
Clubs have a duty to respond to all complaints and follow appropriate complaint handling procedures. Clubs should always endeavour to act in the best interests of all parties involved and respond to a complaint as quickly and effectively as possible. Clubs should manage all complaints fairly and effectively

Ozone Africa:
A newletter for African Network of Environment Journalists
(September 2010)
UNEPs Governing Council has on numerous occasions highlighted the need to involve major stakeholders such as parliamentarians, the judiciary, women, Journalists and youth group in its work because of their unique role in the society. This is entrenched within its mission to provide and encourage access to environmental information to contribute to sustainable development.
In the context of this mission and to consolidate the experience journalists in environmental reporting, UNEP assisted in the establishment of the African Network of Environmental Journalists which set up to build partnership and a strategic alliance, in support of public awareness and education programmes in the field of environment in Africa.
The network has been instrumental in facilitating environmental information sharing in the region. This network is also meant to play a critical role as a vital element of the communications strategy of the African Environmental Information Network, a network being established to serve as the substantive support to the publication of the Africa Environment Outlook Report (AEO). Since the establishment of the African Network for Environmental Journalists in 2002, a series of training workshops have been held to help build the capacity for environmental reporting. Each training session has a focal theme on an environmental issue pertinent to Africa.The African Network of Environmental Journalists (ANEJ) was set up with the following objectives:
The work programme of ANEJ is structured into four main fields:

Van Phuc Silk Village visitors can learn how the fabric is woven and shop for textiles in a traditional silk-making village just outside the Hanoi city limits.
Focused on the contribution of women to
Vietnam's history and culture, this museum highlights their roles in Vietnam's many military conflicts as well as in commerce, including features on female street vendors, women's role in the family, and more recently, single mothers in Vietnam.
This house in the Old Quarter was restored in 1999, as an example of an ancient Hanoian home. It represents the architecture of the Old Quarter, and is decorated to reflect ancient houses of Hanoi.
First visit the famous Chau Long Market, then take your wares back to the kitchen to prepare a meal, perhaps street food, traditional Hanoian dishes or coastal cuisine. If you don't want to cook, a five-hour tour of street food and other venues ends with Vietnamese tea and dessert.
This night market on the edge of West Lake starts up around 2 a.m., when wholesalers arrive to claim their spots with piles of roses and chrysanthemums, and lasts until sunrise. Quang Ba is especially worth a visit during Tet, when flowers are needed for the many new year's celebrations.
Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

My son is on my auto insurance and cell phone account for the discounts. He�s 19 and lives at home, but he works. He�s supposed to pay his share of these bills, but he doesn�t. What can I do to help him become more responsible?
�Steve in Indianapolis, Ind.
Dave Says: It�s really pretty simple: Take action! I�d first sit him down and apologize for doing a bad job of communicating with him in the past. Explain to him that from this point on, you�re going to make him live up to his end of the bargain. Do this by explaining that the next time he doesn�t have his share of the money, you�re shutting off his cell phone and canceling the insurance. Then, if he doesn�t pay up on time, do it! You still have the control in this situation, Steve. You just have to exercise it. Your son may not like it at first, but you�ll both benefit from the process.

Intel Corp. said on Tuesday that it would start production of its new central processing units (CPUs) using new 45nm process technology in late October, less than two months from now. Following the formal opening, the world's largest chipmaker will unveil new and faster processors in mid-November, a move expected to rise performance bar of computing.
"In 45 days, a new building called 'Fab 32' tucked into a sleepy corner of Arizona will come to life. Inside this building a new type of device will be made in incredible numbers," said Nick Knupffer, a spokesman for Intel wrote in the company's corporate blog.
Earlier Intel started making its central processing units using 45nm process tech at its development D1D fab in Oregon, however, the development fab cannot manufacture products in high-volume, which is required for mass products.
Intel's 45nm fabrication process is an innovative production technology that features new Hafnium material with a property called high-k for the transistor gate dielectric, and a new combination of metal materials for the transistor gate electrode. The combination of thinner process technology along with new materials is projected to reduce transistor leakage and increases their performance.
The Santa Clara, California-based chipmaker is projected to ship its first server and high-performance desktop/workstation microprocessors made using 45nm process technology for revenue this year and even formally unveil it late in 2007 too. Potentially, the new 45nm central processing units represent a threat for the new breed of chips from Advanced Micro Devices, who is known for relatively slow volume ramps of its innovative chips.
Intel announced in March that the new "Penryn" family chips produced using 45nm process technology will have greater instructions per clock (IPC) execution, which means that they will be faster and more efficient even at the same clock-speeds with the current generation chips. Besides, the new chips will be able to run at higher clock-speeds compared to today's Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Quad products.
The major micro-architectural improvements for new Intel Core 2 processors, besides SSE4 instruction set, include the so-called Unique Super Shuffle Engine and Radix 16 technique. The Super Shuffle Engine is a full-width, single-pass shuffle unit that is 128-bits wide, which can perform full-width shuffles in a single cycle. This significantly improves performance for SSE2, SSE3 and SSE4 instructions that have shuffle-like operations such as pack, unpack and wider packed shifts. This feature will increase performance for content creation, imaging, video and high-performance computing. Radix 16 technique, according to Intel, roughly doubles the divider speed over previous generations for computations used in nearly all applications. In addition, Intel also improved virtualization technology as well as added some features to dynamic acceleration technology, which is supposed to boost single-threaded applications' performance on multi-core chips.
Each of Intel's dual-core Penryn chips will have 410 million transistors, up significantly from 291 million of current dual-core Conroe processors, however, thanks to 45nm process technology, the chips will have die size of 107 square millimeters, down about 25% from 155 square millimeters of the Conroe.

Health & Medicine
The Museum's collections of medical science artifacts represent nearly all aspects of health and medical practice. Highlights include early X-ray apparatuses, such as one of Wilhelm Roentgen's tubes, penicillin mold from Alexander Fleming's experiments, and Jonas Salk's original polio vaccine. More recent acquisitions include the first artificial heart implanted in a human, the earliest genetically engineered drugs, and materials related to David, the "Bubble Boy." Other artifacts range from artificial limbs and implant devices to bloodletting and dental instruments, beauty products, and veterinary equipment. The contents of a medieval apothecary shop and an 1890s drugstore form part of the collections, along with patent and alternative medicines. The collections also document the many differing perspectives on health and medical issues, from patients, family members, doctors, nurses, medical students, and out-of-the-mainstream health practitioners.

Which still is my prefered method, but not as easy to take with you .
It's always challenging when guests want to help in making the pizzas. If I have enough dough I will let the kids try to make a pizza but they always come out terrible. People don't realize that it takes a lot of practice to make a decent pizza. But you don't want to be a Scrooge about it either.

Gudi Padwa is the Hindu New Year in Marathi culture as per traditional lunar calendar followed in
Maharashtra. Gudi Padwa 2017 Date is March 28. It is observed mainly in Maharashtra, Goa and parts of Karnataka. As per traditional Marathi calendar, this New Year is the Hevilambi Nama Samvatsar and the Shri Shalivahan Shak 1939 begins on the day. The first month in the Marathi calendar is Chaitra and Gudi Padwa is observed on Chaitra 1 or the first day of Chaitra. The most important event on the day is the hoisting of the Gudhi (victory flags) in front of the homes.
There numerous reasons for observing Gudi Padwa - the most important legends are the defeat of Shakas by Shaliavahan and some people observe it to commemorate the victories of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.
Gudi Hoisting
The most important event on the day is the hoisting of flags on a bamboo staff. The flag hoisted on Maharashtrian New Year is made of green or yellow colored silk cloth. A bright garlanded goblet is hung on top of the flag pole. Neem leaves, mango leaves, garland of red flowers and gaohi (sweet) are hung on the Gudhi. Rangoli is drawn near the Gudi or in front of the house.
Gudi Padwa Offerings
Offering made of neem leaves and neem flowers and jaggery is distributed on the day. The offering consists of neem leaves and neem flowers, soaked dal, cumin seeds, honey or jaggery and asafetida. The offering symbolically indicates that life is filled with joy and sorrow.
Auspicious Day
Gudi Padva is one of the most auspicious days in the Marathi Hindu Calendar and is considered ideal for starting new ventures and investment. It is believed that every moment on the Gudhi Padwa day is auspicious. The day also heralds the arrival of the spring season.
Farmers make it a point to plough the field on the Gudhi Padva day and they believe it will help in having a good harvest in the ensuing agricultural season.

On Thursday, August 1st, 2013, detectives from the Pinal County Sheriff's Property Crimes Unit severed a search warrant in the 8900 block of West Raven, Arizona City. The warrant was conducted after the detectives developed probable cause to believe David Versluis (age 25 of Arizona City) and Ashley Pagels (age 23 of Arizona City) had committed a burglary on July 31st, 2013 and a theft on July 29th, 2013. Witnesses had observed David and Ashley fleeing the scene of the burglary and they had stolen a wallet from inside of a vehicle on the theft case. David later used the credit card he found inside of the wallet at a business in Arizona City. During the execution of the warrant, detectives had to make forced entry into the residence. Both David and Ashley were taken into custody without incident. Inside of the residence, detectives recovered property taken in at least 5 additional burglaries and property from several reported thefts which had occurred in Arizona City. David and Ashley were both booked into the Pinal County Adult Detention Center for numerous counts of Burglary and Possession of Stolen Property. Additionally David was also booked for Theft of a Credit Card, Fraudulent Use of a Credit Card and Forgery. Sheriff Paul Babeu stated, "Inside the house, detectives recovered property stolen in at least 5 other burglaries and property from several other thefts in Arizona City. Detectives were able to recover flat screen televisions, tools, multiple garage door openers, vehicle keys and other property. We also recovered a stolen military style ballistic vest. These are more serious crimes since victims not only lose their property, but they also lose their feeling of safety in their own home. Our deputies and detectives did a great job with these serial criminals and we shall continue to be relentless in going after these bad guys."

When it comes to portable/mobile devices, the bulk of early WiMAX device shipments will be in the form of external laptop clients and embedded mobile PCs, according to In-Stat market research firm. At least initially, mobile WiMAX technology will not become available on mainstream handsets and other devices that take advantage of wide-area networks (WANs).
"WiMAX will grow by meeting pent-up demand and offering users a lower cost alternative to existing services. There will be different classes of operator control over devices. Despite what some technology advocates have said, not all WiMAX devices will follow the Wi-Fi model of full consumer ownership and control," said Daryl Schoolar, an In-Stat analyst.
Growth in both external clients and laptops will benefit from the lower cost of the technology compared to cellular, and in some cases, lack of service contracts, the high-tech market research firm says. In-Stat believes these devices will attract both monthly subscribers and session-based users.
There are many challenges to WiMAX device growth, including current 3G services, 3GPP LTE (long term evolution, pre-4G) as well as the current economic climate. In-Stat believes that future trends with WiMAX devices are multi-band radios and chipsets that support both LTE and WiMAX.
The analysts believe that annual WiMAX device shipments will break the 10 million mark in 2010.

This product has eliminated nail fungus. It also shrunk a wart on my hand. I have tried all sorts of other products and am amazed by the effectiveness of the tree oil.
used for removing skin tags.
Posted by Reviewer1612081 on Oct 01, 2011
I first tried Now's tea tree oil to remove the sin tags but it was not effective. Then I tried the cedar oil and found it was slowly reducing the size of the tags. Only when I combined the two oils upon the tags themselves that I saw how effective they are. Very son after trying both oils together the skins went away completely. Fantastic results for an affordable product.
Fantastic product, highly recommend it!
Posted by Reviewer3010568 on Dec 14, 2007
This pure tea tree oil is fantastic. I diluted it with the Now Foods avocado oil to use on acne, and it works terrifically. The natural antiseptic tea tree oil works perfectly with the moisturizing avocado oil to get rid of even big zits without drying out my skin. (Make sure you never use the tea tree oil undiluted on your skin though!)
Posted by Reviewer3045679 on Feb 19, 2009
use it for my gums even my ears. My ears were always itching and no wax then found out itching was caused by some fungus..it went away!
Many uses ...

Recommended Hamilton Beach® Product: Half-Pint™ Soft-Serve Ice Cream Maker
1. Make sure ice cream bowls are completely frozen.
2. In a small/med saucepan over medium high heat, whisk together green tea, yogurt, salt and soymilk. Bring to just below a boil, stirring constantly until mixture begins to thicken and look a bit "foamy" (about 5 – 7 minutes). Remove from heat; set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until smooth. Add soymilk mixture to egg mixture, whisking all the time to prevent the eggs from "cooking."
4. Pour combined mixture back into original saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, for another 5-7 minutes.
5. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature, stir, then place in refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
6. Pour cooled mixture into blender and add frozen peaches. Blend until peaches are chopped, about 10-15 seconds.
7. Pour mixture into ice cream bowls, replace motor housing and turn unit on.
Yield: 2-3 servings
TEST KITCHEN TIP: Use any flavor soy yogurt and frozen fruit to substitute for peach – other flavors will work just as well. Try strawberry, raspberry or blueberry!

I'm not a Haley fan but this its getting old bashing the OC's all the time.
I still don't like not having a FB in there. They put Johnson in there at the end, and he ended up scoring a TD. There were plays where the hole Bell tried running into closed so fast he had no options. IF he had Johnson leading the way, there were a few plays where he could have bounced outside for yardage.... that's one of my only beefs with Haley..
