Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Favorite summer shoe!
"I can't get over how much I love this shoe. I typically don't wear/purchase Madden Girl shoes, but when I saw this shoe at my local DSW, I thought, "Hmmm...this is kinda cute. Different from what I normally wear. May as well try it." And I'm so glad I did! I got it in brown, and it is my absolutely go-to shoe this summer. It fits my foot so perfectly. There's no rubbing, no pinching, etc. I feel like I'm wearing hugs on my feet! I do have a rather narrow foot, and this shoe fits it well, so if you have wide feet, I think this style will be problematic. I also purchased a half-size smaller than what I typically wear."

Custom Upload options in ADF Desktop Integration
By Gayathri on Feb 01, 2012
In ADFdi enabled excel workbook while uploading the changes performed in ADF Table,standard upload options dialog appears like below.
In this article,we will see how to customize these options in a dialog.
Let us take a simple example of Employee table.
Assumption: An ADF Web Application with ADF Desktop Integration enabled workbook having Employee table as below screenshot is available.
Now let's create a new jspx page titled 'UploadOptions.jspx'.
The below code adds two checkboxes and buttons.Let's copy this into the Source view of jspx page.

<af:selectBooleanCheckbox text="Abort Upload On Failure" id="sbc1"
value="#{requestScope.abortUploadOnFailure}" autoSubmit="true" selected="true"/>

<af:selectBooleanCheckbox text="Download After Upload" id="sbc2" autoSubmit="true"

<af:button text="Continue" id="b1" inlineStyle="width:100px;" partialSubmit="false">
<af:setActionListener from="continue" to="#{requestScope.action}"/>

<af:button text="Abort" id="b2" inlineStyle="width:100px;" partialSubmit="false">
<af:setActionListener from="abort" to="#{requestScope.action}" />
The UploadOptions.jspx page now looks like below:
Below Span elements have to be used to perform custom upload actions in ADFdi Table.
ADFdiCloseWindow - When a web page has to be closed,this span element can be set to
Continue - to close the web page and invoke next action in actions set or
Abort - to close the web page and terminate the action set.
ADFdiAbortUploadOnFailure - If this element is set to True, the action set stops uploading if it encounters a failure. If the element references False, the action set attempts to upload all rows and indicates if each row succeeded or failed to upload.
ADFdiDownloadAfterUpload - If this element is set to True, the action set downloads data into the ADFdi Table component after the action set uploads modified data.
Let us add the below code at the end of tag Form in source view of jspx,to include the above mentioned span elements.

<f:verbatim rendered="#{requestScope.action eq 'continue'}">
Continue

<f:verbatim rendered="#{requestScope eq 'abort'}">
Abort

${requestScope.abortUploadOnFailure}

${requestScope.downloadAfterUpload}
In ADFdi excel workbook,let us add this new jspx file as dialog before Table.Upload action in Ribbon Commands of Worksheet Properties.
Now we run the excel workbook and download data into ADF Table as shown above.Let's update a row by changing the Sal=4000 of Martin.
On clicking Upload Ribbon command like below:
the custom upload actions dialog gets opened with 'Abort Upload On Failure' check box selected by default.
We can select 'Download After Upload' check box and click on Continue button.We can see data updated and downloaded again with new value like below:
This is a simple example of how upload options can be customized. Using this, we can add more custom options to the dialog, which is not available in the standard upload options dialog. We will see such options sooner in my next blog.

Jaguar was founded in 1922 as the Swallow Sidecar Company. SS cars, as Jaguar's were once known, lost their moniker following World War II when the company wished to distance itself from the Nazi organization. Jaguar's first cars appeared in 1935. In the 1950s, the company began selling its brand in the United States.
In the 1960s, Jaguar released some of its signature models, including the E-Type, a sports car available as a convertible or a coupe. In the 1970s, Jaguar released the XJ line of coupes to their already popular group of sedans. Throughout the 1980s, Jaguar prospered before running into financial trouble late in the decade.
After becoming a subsidiary of Ford, Jaguar made some significant changes. By the late 1990s, the company had made an effort to produce high-quality vehicles that were reduced in price. They added vehicles to their line, and tried to appeal to a broader audience. Unfortunately, these changes failed. In 2008, Jaguar was sold to Tata, an Indian auto manufacturer.
Today Jaguar offers a line of classy, attractive, and slimmed down automobiles which once again are aimed at high-end buyers. Their lines include the XK, XJ, XE, and XF models and feature a range of sedans and coupes starting in the low $50,000 range. However, most Jaguars come in around $80,000 (and up) and are certainly designed to appeal to drivers seeking the best in luxury and performance. All in all, Jaguar is heading in the right direction – forward with a sense of style reminiscent of its past British roots.

The Bag Ladies of Greenwich, Connecticut
Over 750 guests gathered at Cipriani Wall Street last Thursday, for the 11th Annual New York Smile Event, in celebration of the organization's 30th year of operation. Since it was founded by Dr Bill and Kathy Magee in 1982, the charity, which repairs cleft lips and palates has provided more than 3.5 million health care evaluations, leading to some 200,000 surgeries to children with facial deformities around the world. It's estimated that every 3 minutes a child is born with a cleft and a shocking one in 10 of those children will die before his or her first birthday. Special guest Joshua Perez, a four year old from Texas born with a cleft lip and palate, appeared at the event with his grandmother Candy Perez, who said "You don't always know how your generosity affects a child like Joshua. I want each of you to know – you've changed everything about my grandson's life for the better." In addition, Yue-Sai Kan was honored with the Universal Smiles Award and PepsiCo was awarded the Corporate Humanitarian Award, recognizing its support to Operation Smile, generosity that has helped thousands of children. The wonderful event gave everyone something to smile about!

Did You Know? Countdown to Days of the Dead (10/29)
Did You Know?
Facts, Figures & Folklore About Mexico's
Days of the Dead
(Los Dias De Los Muertos)
Oct 29 : 03 days till DOD
Did you know that Mexicans believe that spirits return to the Earth during the Days of the Dead to be with their families?
Angelitos, or little angel spirits, are believed to come on November 1, while adult spirits visit on November 2.
Los Dias de los Muertos (Days of the Dead), is a traditional Mexican holiday honoring the dead. It is celebrated every year at the same time as Halloween and the Christian holy days of All Saints Day and All Souls Day. Unlike the modern-day interpretation of Halloween, Los Dias de los Muertos is neither morbid nor gloomy but rather a festive remembrance of those who have departed.
Los Dias de los Muertos, which is celebrated November 01st & 2nd, can also be referred to as (the singular) El Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).

1. Sales
The website is set to automatically show you the current sales. This is the default option, so if you don't select one of the other customization options, this is the homepage that will always come up. If you select another customization option, and later want to reset your customization to Sales, you'll find the option fifth in the drop-down menu.
2. Most Popular
This customization option will show the most popular products, education pieces, blog articles, and recipes on our website.

On this homepage there are also several links to important articles about food storage and a link to our Food Storage Analyzer.
5. Group Specials
Updated monthly, the options on this homepage will keep you in-the-know about our group specials. This is the perfect customization choice for Group Leaders and other people interested in buying in bulk. One benefit this homepage has, that the others don't, is that it provides a link to our Facebook page where you can receive exclusive offers. By liking and following our Facebook page you'll get the word on promotions that we don't offer anywhere else. As with all of our excellent homepage choices, in addition to featuring products, this homepage provides links to educational materials. It doesn't get easier than this!

Here you'll find links that will take you educational pieces on disasters like tornados, earthquakes, and even how to survive unemployment. Most exciting is the link that will take you to information on natural disasters that commonly occur in your state. This is a great option if you've just moved to a new area or if you are new to preparedness.
9. Education
Our Education homepage will keep a lot of valuable knowledge a mouse-click away. The only products featured here are books and other educational materials. The most popular links on this page take you to our Prep School curriculum and other insightful articles on our blog. This customization will also connect you to information about our company's programs, videos on our YouTube page, and the Emergency Essentials Forum where you can communicate with other preparedness-minded people.
Choosing to customize your homepage to see the products and information you want most will save you a lot of time by minimizing your searches. If you do customize your homepage you'll always be able to search for products in the cream-colored box on the top, right-hand corner of the page.

Jackall DD Squirrel 79SP
This jerkbait is very effective in cold weather. Squirrel has a longbill which makes it possible to dive deeper, thus it is easier to reach inactive bass in the water. It will be your favorite lure for early spring. This lure produces a tight wobbling action creating a life-like stop and go action which increases your chances of catching more fish.

Comments: this Squirrel is 10xs better than any Pointer. the chart striped ayu is my all time favorite color. Catches Smallmouth and Kentucky like crazy in cold clear water, I've even caught a ton of Walleye on this dude. Wish TW would carry the regular Diving Squirrel but this will work.
From: Scott: Conway, AR 9/20/15
Comments: You know you rely on a bait when you break it off and go straight to the 'net to order another one. Simply a SICK deep ripbait. Slap it on the water, and you'll lose the eyes. So don't do that.

Same question as Sherry, Glitter, Crila & Jessica – What was Casper doing there? I missed part of the broadcast. Was he there with JLo? He must have some good dirt on her to get back into her good graces after his failure as a beard or fake boyfriend. (Is it considered a beard if you are a fake boyfriend, not for the purpose of covering your sexuality?)ReplyCancel

LOUISVILLE – Four World War II veterans who were involved in the Normandy Invasion are here as guests of the horse Normandy Invasion, who will run Saturday in the Kentucky Derby.
"I'll tell you, this excitement has made my legs feel better than they've felt in weeks," Ray Woods, 90, of Ottowa, Ohio, said Friday morning as he stood on a cane out Normandy Invasion's barn at Churchill Downs.
The veterans were invited here for a three-day stay by Rick Porter, owner of Normandy Invasion and Fox Hill Farm of Lexington, Ky.
THE FIELD: Horse-by-horse look at the Derby
The Normandy Invasion, also known as D-Day, was the June 6, 1944 assault on the beaches of Normandy, France. The horse, trained by Chad Brown and to be ridden by jockey Javier Castellano, was 12-1 in the morning line.
"We name a lot of horses after patriotic things. And when I went to Normandy in 1994, which was the 50th anniversary, we spent three days there. I was blown away by everything, and they were memories I'll never forget," said Porter.
Porter was contacted by one of the veterans about perhaps attending the Derby.
"We should have thought of this ourselves. … So here they are," said Porter, who is putting the veterans up in a hotel and will have them in the Millionaire's Row clubhouse area for the race.
During D-Day, Woods was a Navy chief radar man on the U.S.S. O'Brien. "A destroyer, 2,200-tons, the largest destroyers," he noted.
Woods said his destroyer shelled the beach defenses, including after the beach landings to assist in the protection and evacuation of the wounded.
WHO WINS?: Expert picks for the Kentucky Derby
"We saved their butts. After all the carnage, our skipper decided to go in without orders," said Woods. " … We went in and blasted the German guns. We threw salvos at every one of the gun ports."
Bill Wilch, 89, of Middletown, Ohio, was a private in the Army when he hit the beach in the Fox Green sector of Omaha Beach.
"Where the big cemetery is today," said Wilch.
At one point, he and fellow private were assigned to take a dozen German prisoners back to headquarters. They came under fire. They returned fire and got their prisoners back. Wilch and his fellow private earned Bronze Stars.
Wilch said his late wife, Mary Rita, always wanted to attend the Derby.
"My wife and I used to go to Derby day parties, and we watched it on TV, and she loved horses," he said.
He brought a photo of Mary Rita here.
"We finally made it," said Wilch. "Thanks to him," he said, gesturing toward Porter.
Army veteran J.J. Witmeyer Jr., 92, of Harahan, La., is here, too. He was wearing his WWII medals on the breast of his jacket. His decorations include two Purple Hearts, four Bronze Stars, two Presidential Unit citations. He is a member of the French Legion of Honor.
"I was an infantry officer," said Witmeyer. "My job was to lead them ashore. I was in charge of a company of infantry men, Utah Beach."
He got a look at the horse Normandy Invasion Friday morning.
"He's a pretty horse," said Witmeyer. "I had a couple (of race horses), but times got rough, and they didn't win more," he said.
Might he bet $2 on Normandy Invasion.
"A little more," he said.
Army veteran Alan Reeves, 91, of LaJolla, Calif., was instrumental in setting up the trip here with his fellow veterans. In 1944, Reeves was involved in civil affairs with the Army and worked in Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's Supreme Command.
About a week after the invasion, he went to France.
"I was slated to go in right after the invasion to be part of the country, and I went in with Eisenhower to some tents. It was a very brief meeting. And the history books show that," said Reeves.
Reeves also will make a wager on Normandy Invasion -- $69.
"It's the 69th anniversary of D-Day," he said. "Can't lose."

Erase significa cancella.
Quote from: uwefed on Oct 24, 2012, 08:06 pmErase significa cancella. ok, ma ai fini pratici cosa fa?
Native port: To use this port, select "Arduino Due (Native USB Port)" as your board in the Arduino IDE. The Native USB port is connected directly to the SAM3X. Connect the Due's Native USB port (the one closest to the reset button) to your computer. Opening and closing the Native port at 1200bps triggers a 'soft erase' procedure: the flash memory is erased and the board is restarted with the bootloader. If the MCU crashed for some reason it is likely that the soft erase procedure won't work as this procedure happens entirely in software on the SAM3X. Opening and closing the native port at a different baudrate will not reset the SAM3X.
Quindi la ethernet shield che prende alimentazione 5v e butta fuori sui suoi pin i 5v inserendola sulla DUE che riceve max 3.3v lo danneggio
Si lo rompi.
Chi mi spiega questo?
Quote from: leo72 on Oct 25, 2012, 12:26 amChi mi spiega questo? Il zigzag della pista serve per adattare l'impedenzaCiao
Non per l' impedenza, ma per avere la pista della stessa lunghezza e percui il segnale arriva lo stesso momento.
Each of the 54 digital pins on the Due can be used as an input or output, using pinMode(), digitalWrite(), and digitalRead() functions. They operate at 3.3 volts. Each pin can provide (source) a current of 3 mA or 15 mA, depending on the pin, or receive (sink) a current of 6 mA or 9 mA, depending on the pin. They also have an internal pull-up resistor (disconnected by default) of 100 KOhm.

In addition to her own relatives, she took upon herself the role of caretaker to numerous families in nearby neighborhoods. She loved the Lord and worshipping him throughout all phases of her life. She was a longtime member of Christian Chapel Church of Christ. Much of her spare time was spent enjoying the company of her daughters, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, commonly reading the Bible and rehashing stories of old.

Let's post interesting Christmas News we come across on the web (attach a link back to the article).
I found this article about Christmas Tree recycling in Portland:
I didn't know that in some cases/areas, Christmas trees actually end up in landfills. Seems strange to me, since Christmas trees are nature-made, not man-made.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The Emery County Sheriff's Office reported the suspects in the Stewart's Market burglary and theft on Oct. 9 have been apprehended. After the burglary Det. Garrett Conover said they began interviewing the Stewart's employees to gather any information they could about the burglary. Conover said in the early morning hours of Oct. 9, Tyler Firm, DOB 6-6-85, and a juvenile gained access into the Stewarts Market in Castle Dale. They opened the safe in the office area and took all of the money within the safe. They also stole approximately 15 cartons of cigarettes. After opening the safe, they took a hammer and knocked the dials off the safe to make it look like a forced entry into the safe.
The suspects left through the front door, leaving it unlocked. Conover said they began by interviewing all of the store's managers. "We figured out the suspects had a key to the store and a combination to the safe. The managers are the only ones with access to the combination and who have keys. After interviewing all of the managers, one of them stood out and the investigation after this was directed to this one employee. After six weeks and three interviews with the employee Kayla Carter, DOB 4-9-87 we finally received the information as to who had accessed the store and stole the money. After receiving this information, we interviewed the juvenile who was in detention at the time on unrelated offenses. He gave his full confession of his involvement in the burglary and the details of how it happened.
"We would also like to thank Zions Bank for their reporting of a suspicious juvenile who was cashing in large amounts of rolled coins for bills. They alerted us that this was happening and when the interviews took place it indicated this juvenile had been involved in the Stewarts burglary. After interviewing the juvenile, we interviewed Kayla Carter one last time and she admitted to giving the combination to the safe and a key to Tyler Firm and the 17 year old juvenile. "At that point we made contact with Tyler Firm on the phone and asked him to come to the sheriff's office for an interview which he did voluntarily. He denied his involvement at the time, but later gave a full confession. Firm was arrested. The defendants will face third degree felony burglary and second degree felony theft charges as well as criminal mischief a class B misdemeanor for damaging the safe.
The two male subjects reported they spent the money taken on fuel and drugs. The female claims she didn't receive any of the stolen money. It is reported the defendants have a drug problem and the motive for the burglary was to steal money to buy more methamphetamines. Carter will be charged as an accomplice to the burglary a third degree felony and theft a second degree felony.
The defendants will also be ordered by the court to pay restitution for the stolen money. Firm had his initial appearance on Dec. 18 and Carter will appear in court on Jan. 2, 2013. Kyle Johnson is the juvenile recently turned adult involved. Carter has been charged and must appear to be booked before Jan. 2, 2013, but as of Dec. 21 had not done so.

By Shoppermom

The Hayen is very nice, just was cut a little to narrow for me-I usually buy the Marilyn straight leg

cute pants
By Dora the explorer
from SLO
a well made, cute pair of pants. I dislike, though, how skimpy and short the pant leg hems are--barely a half an inch. On a $100 pair of slacks, one would hope they can spare a little more on hems to make them hang better and in case theres some shrinkage. Quite unfortunate.
my favorite NYDJ style
By Deborah
from Wrightwood, CA
This Hayden fit comes up on the waistline a little higher than the Marilyn fit; no gapping at the waist and a much smoother silhouette. I am 5'3"; the petite length is perfect with heels or flats. The fabric is soft and comfortable and a little dressier than denim. I wash them inside out, hang them to dry, and iron in creases. And, my husband loves the way they fit my behind!

So disappointed
By Toby
from Sister Bay, WI
So sorry to say that this product is unsatisfactory in every way, except color. I wore for two hours and they were so stretched out of shape that they were falling off my hips. They were too long even though they said Petite. Must return but really need a pair of sand colored pants.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Skip to comments.WRKO Legal Moves Silence Carr (Not Howie Carr live thread week of Sep. 24, 2007)
Posted on 09/24/2007 5:42:37 AM PDT by raccoonradio
(Scott Fybush): *A MASSACHUSETTS judge barred WRKO (680 Boston) Howie Carr from jumping ship to rival talker WTKK (96.9 Boston) last week, but the decision didn't make the host's future much clearer.
Suffolk Superior Court Judge Allan van Gessel ruled Wednesday, just hours before Carr was to have started his WTKK morning shift, that while WRKO owner Entercom couldn't enforce the non-compete clause in Carr's contract, it could enforce a clause that allowed WRKO to match any competing offer for Carr's services.
What does "match" mean? There's the seven-million-dollar question as the legal battle keeps plodding along: would merely matching WTKK's paycheck be enough to force Carr to stay with WRKO, or are there other factors at play, too, such as the Red Sox preemptions that have annoyed Carr all summer, not to mention WTKK's FM signal and the conspicuous absence of Carr's nemesis Tom Finneran over at the Greater Media talker.
In any case, WRKO succeeded in barring Carr from his scheduled Thursday morning debut on WTKK, but for now that's the extent of the victory. Carr was already off the air at WRKO last week while the lawsuit was being heard, and he's not rushing back to the WRKO studios now, either, which leaves substitute hosts filling the afternoon slot both there and on the remaining affiliates of Carr's syndicated show.
Over at WTKK, the picture's only marginally brighter. While the station issued a statement saying "we are disappointed that Howie will not be on WTKK tomorrow, but we are hopeful that he will be a part of the Greater Media family in the very near future," there's every reason to expect Entercom to drag the legal wrangling out as long as possible, which leaves WTKK filling its morning drive slot with substitute hosts as well. That's Michael Graham, for the moment, with weekender Michelle McPhee handling Graham's usual 10-noon slot.
WTKK is moving forward in other ways - it has a new website in development, and it's started to use a new logo proclaiming the station as "Boston's Talk Evolution." (Given the political bent of most of the station's hosts, we'd think "Boston's Talk Creation" might be more in order, but we digress.)
By teh way, how is Jay Severin doing these days, and is there any new regarding he and Howie. I know Jay mostly works out of NY, and I recall they'd snipe at one another.
Welcome to the first Monday of life after Howie. Who knows how long this will last? We can use this thread to talk about Howie's substitute hosts (if Howie makes a sudden re-emergence this week you'll know about it here), maybe what's being
talked about, or whatever...
Are you still bothering to listen or is it a case of if Howie's not there, I'm not there? Do you hit the button for
WRKO or your Howie affiliate and once there's no Howie to
be heard, you then switch to Jay Severin, Hannity, The Big Show, or whatever?
It really stinks not having Howie on! I will post some of Howie's columns here, possibly. By the way we know that WCRN in Worcester dropped him and we had thought WGAN in
Portland would do the same but apparently the "announcement" was that one of the morning guys on WGAN was running for Senate or something, not that Howie would be dropped.
If Howie stays away from Entercom and/or the legal mess
drags on, and on, and on, I would not be surprised if
Howie's other 6 or 7 stations were to drop him. They can't
wait forever.
Column above is by Scott Fybush of NorthEastRadioWatch
I don't know how he's doing but actually I think Jay allegedly works out of the WTKK studios at 55 Morrissey Blvd
in Dorchester. You know, the ones Howie would have been at right now had it not been for a judge's decision. Jay found a mini-mansion one town away from me in Manchester-by-the-Sea
(for all I know he could broadcast from a home studio there
but I doubt it).
Jay had broadcast from Sag Harbor Long Island before. Who knows he could be there still but as part of his return to
WTKK, he said he'd be locally based.
raccoonradio despises Jay Severin. Don't take any assessments from him.
As for sniping at each other (Jay: "fart radio"; while on Howie's show it was said, "broadcasting from his basement
in Long Island—no wait that's the OTHER guy"), Howie said
in his Ch 4 interview (taped last Monday, 2 days BEFORE
the judge's decision), "What will I listen to in the
afternoon? Probably Jay Severin on WTKK."
Well I'm not fond of his voice and the whole fake Pulitzer
thing was something I could make fun of (and the dropping of the o from the end of his name, and the "WHAT wife" thing).
I can't say I despise him but I thought he was dishonest
(he's not exactly a swinging single either like what he
tried to sound like) and the voice kinda turns me off.
THIS guy is not fond of him:
When Jay started his brief syndicated show (9 months;
was it a matter of him wanting to leave, or the show
bombing? prob the latter) someone asked how his lovely
wife Renee was doing. With a touch of arrogance in his
voice, Jay denied on air that he was married to the
former Renee Klock. "I don't know what you're talking about."
There's the difference between Jay and Howie right there.
Howie isn't a put-on guy.
Jay and Renee (just walk away, Renee) Severin in the Ultimate Taxi. That was no lady, that IS his wife.
Renee Klock, James Severin 3d
Published: May 18, 1997
Renee Melanie Klock, a writer and editor in Sag Harbor, N.Y., was married there yesterday to James Thompson Severin 3d, a political consultant in New York. The Rev. Christine Rannie Grimbol performed the ceremony at the Old Whalers First Presbyterian Church.
Mrs. Severin, 33, graduated cum laude from Barnard College. She is the daughter of Jeanne and Felix S. Klock of Glastonbury, Conn. Her father founded the Klock Company in Manchester, Conn., a holding company for metallurgical engineering companies. The bride's mother is a substitute teacher at Glastonbury High School.
Mr. Severin, 45, is the chairman of Severin Media in New York. He graduated from Vassar College and received a master's degree in journalism from Boston University. The bridegroom, who dropped the last letter of his surname, is the son of Iris Severino of Sag Harbor, and the late Mr. Severino 2d. They were the founders of the Letter Shop, a direct-mail advertising agency in Poughkeepsie, N.Y.
Severin: I don't know what you're talking about.
(Because he wanted his callers to think he's a swinging
single guy in his 20s or 30s or something.)
I have a one+ hour commute and listened to Howie every day. Now my CD player is getting a workout. (AMs I listen to Bill Bennett for the time being.)
Jay lost me when he went moonbat over the war. He started doing all the things he accused Democrats of doing: shouting people down, twisting what was said, engaging in intellectual dishonesty and heavily demagoguing the issue. I also grew very tired of Jay's adolescent flirting and his promotion of some predatory professor who went after his female students. It was boring!
The last couple of days I haven't heard any promos or commercials done by Howie, however, yesterday, I did hear a promo for his show done in his own voice...wonder what that means........
I haven't really been listening to WRKO since he left other than the Red Sox (at work, the other Sox station, WBOQ
in Gloucester, doesn't really come in too well). The Felon,
Feinburg or some fill in, Rush (maybe for a minute or two
but lately not really), Whomever is filling in for Howie...
nothing really for me.
Howie was doing a promo in his own voice? Hmm. Entercom
does claim he's theirs for the next 5 years...they may have to be frozen out and, after a few months, just give up. He ain't
coming back, not unless WTKK gets so tired, tired of
waiting, tired of waiting for him...
Hannity for me I guess, maybe the Big Show for awhile. I did
tape part of what was Howie's last show (the 18th, feat.
the taser guy IIRC) and I have cassettes of:
—VB's last show with Howie before he left for Fox 25)
—Howie's show the day after the election in '04
—Howie's show paying tribute to Jerry Williams the day
after he died
I'm not sure of the legality of me posting it but I could
convert these to digital and post for those lonely for
Howie's show :)
Try some audio books. Those long commutes are great for catching up with "reading". On the other hand, I sure miss the "Chump Line". :-)
the guy on jayseverin.org is a Libertarian who agrees with a couple things Jay says but disagrees with a lot, etc.
The whole thing about Jay's syndicated show was interesting.
After a big fanfare, he jumped to a nationally syndicated
7 pm show on Westwood One, with WTKK carrying it. But in many cities he got pre-empted by sports (like WPHT in Philly)
and the ratings weren't really there so he was gone by
the following Sept.
And soon back on WTKK with Extreme Games or Has Issues
or whatever he's calling his show now.
I guess Feinburg is still doing the chump line but someone else doing the Chump Line is like getting a 10 year old
kid to pitch for the Sox in place of Josh Beckett. Just
not the same, folks.
No, it's not. Todd Feinberg's (do I have the name right?) not that bad (mostly), but Howie makes me laugh, and that counts for a lot with me!
Can't stand Severin. Howie isn't perfect, but he's far more entertaining.
I noticed Jay Severin returned to the lucrative afternoon commute. Didn't they boot Michael Graham out of that slot. Does Jay really do better than Michael? I find that hard to believe.
"Honest Jay" Severin keeps his Pulitzer Prize proudly on display in his Manchester-by-the-Money mansion.
I guess Jay beat Howie in a couple ratings books but more recently it was said that Howie's ratings beat Jay's. (Both stations, though, were beaten regularly by WRKO's
sister station WEEI and The Big Show.)
Graham picked up the slot when Jay moved to syndication
and then Jay returned to afternoons, with Graham moving first
to 7 pm and then to late mornings...WTKK figuring they'd
rather have local hosts on 6 am to 7 pm and then syndicated
after 7.
I should have to remember, as far as we're concerned it
is The Not Howie Carr Show. I like Howie's sense of
humor, too, and his voice is a bit more pleasing. Feinburg
might be OK on occasion but it sounds a little too laid
Someone on a radio messageboard noted that Feinburg does a nationally syndicated show on weekends (1-4 pm, I think)
and they found they liked it better—he was dealing with
hard issues like the war, not "pop culture". They were
in N. Conway NH and picking it up on a station from Maine.
I, too, noticed a Maine station running the weekend
Todd show while up in N. Conway a while back.
"Welcome! You've found your way to the website of
The Todd Feinburg Show. 1-4 pm Saturday/Sunday ET"
This past week, while I was in the Boston area cleaning out my parents' house, I'd generally flip over to WEEI or ESPN radio if I was in the car, or just leave on the TV if I was home.
When I get back to California in the next couple days, I'll probably just fire up iTunes and listen to music.
Is there something so utterly different about employment law in the radio world that prohibits a no-longer-contracted person from working for whomever he wants? I am not an attorney (although I did go to law school many years ago), and perhaps someone will shed some light on this subject. If an employment contract contains a contingent clause allowing the employer a right of first refusal and/or the right to match an external offer, why isn't the employee free to accept or reject such an offer at will?
This makes utterly no sense to me. I can understand why WKRO wanted a right to match another company's future offer to Carr, but why would he be bound to accept it? If he explicitly agreed to do so at the time the original employment contract was negotiated, then perhaps he ought to get a new attorney.
but that's about the size of it for me.
"If an employment contract contains a contingent clause allowing the employer a right of first refusal and/or the right to match an external offer, why isn't the employee free to accept or reject such an offer at will?
This makes utterly no sense to me."
I think Fybush's question about what it means to match the offer should be considered more. While WRKO could surely match the financial part of the offer if they so desired, WOULD they match the working conditions? The preferred shift, the removal of the threat of pre-emptions for sports, and other concerns that made for all-around unpleasant working conditions for Howie. So even if they offered him the same MONEY, they're still not matching the OFFER.
I think Entercom is saying that Howie IS contracted, to
them...because they matched WTKK's offer, and there's the rub.
Does the offer include: morning show? on an FM station?
no Red Sox pre-emptions? etc. or is it just a case of salary.
Howie's WRKO salary was better than WTKK's actual BASE offer.
WRKO paid him $790k and the orig. offer was for $50k less
per year; WTKK offered him maybe $500k but with a lot
of incentives that would be paid if he hit certain goals.
Entercom can say, "Well, we don't know yet if he'd hit those goals because he hasn't started working there, but there you go: we give him $740k, they're offering $500k. Case closed."
Or actually maybe WTKK's offer was closer to WRKO's
than that, but WRKO argues they MET his offer.
But...what about the incentives...?
>>If an employment contract contains a contingent clause allowing the employer a right of first refusal and/or the right to match an external offer, why isn't the employee free to accept or reject such an offer at will?
Don't know but the right of first refusal is why Howie isn't on WTKK yet.
>>why would he be bound to accept it? If he explicitly agreed to do so at the time the original employment contract was negotiated, then perhaps he ought to get a new attorney.
good point
>>The preferred shift, the removal of the threat of pre-emptions for sports, and other concerns that made for all-around unpleasant working conditions for Howie. So even if they offered him the same MONEY, theyre still not matching the OFFER.
That's what I think, too; WRKO couldn't match THOSE conditions.
As far as Howie being out of his contract, while Howie's
lawyers are saying his contract ended last Wed., WRKO is
saying that since they met the offer (again: salary-wise,
not incentive-wise, and not "working conditions") that he
is now under contract to them until 9/30/12.
And Howie is not showing up for work, and not getting a paycheck. The Herald columns and the book receipts
are probably pretty good but eventually I'm sure he'd
love to return to radio...and collect a big fat paycheck
from greater media.
I think you make a good point, in that WTKK has offered Howie Carr something very different from what RKO has in mind. WTKK is offering a morning drive-time slot without the threat of sports preemption that
benefited ONLY Entercom by enhancing its advertising revenue while diminishing Carr's audience. But what I'm questioning is the right of one party to a terminated contract to prevent the other party from contracting freely with a third party.
We can't understand it, because we don't know the actual language in the contract with Entercom. It sounds like it's an automatic extension for 5 years if WRKO matches the contract within 6 months of the expiration date. If they are only required to match his salary, Howie may indeed be screwed.
I agree: it is difficult to make a proper assessment without being able to see the terms of the contract (which, of course, we never will).
>>a morning drive-time slot
WRKO could tell Howie he can have morning drive and put
the Felon on in afternoons
>>without the threat of sports preemption
No sports pre-emption with a morning show; and if he
wanted to keep doing 3-7 (for salary they're offering)
they can say, "no baseball pre-emption this yr after Sox
are doing with playoffs...spring training next year,
we'll put those games on WEEI...regular season? Most games
start no earlier than 7 pm—afternoon games are on WEEI—
and we could have WEEI carry that pre-game show at 6:30
and WRKO picks up game at 7. No pre-emptions (again, IF
they tried to get him to "honor the contract" but kept
him in afternoons)
there were other advantages to WTKK though like FM
signal that doesn't fade after sunset; supposed
younger audience; etc
I doubt that Entercom would agree to that - Carr would be in direct competition with D&C on WEEI.
Howie is in danger of jumping the shark.
yes now that you mention it; though Howie at 3 pm was in direct competition with WEEI's the Big Show which has
been #1 in that slot for certain ratings periods. Though
we're talking sports vs. current events talk in the PM,
while in the AM D&C do some current events talk and not just sports, and there would be a bit of "competition" there.
Actually, I'm catching up on all of the opera recordings that Mrs NHD can't stand on the home system.
If only I could put a car on auto-pilot, I could catch up on some sleep. :-)
yeah Avi was just on for Todd 10-noon; caught a bit of it.
He is well known in Boston talk radio. Back in the 80s
there was a book called Talk Radio And the American
Dream and it focused on Avi, and on Howie's mentor Jerry
Sandy may still be working for 'RKO in afternoons—she
was the past couple days. She may just keep that job but
if word comes that WTKK _can_ get Howie, she may quit to
take a job offer from them, working with Howie. I think
Howie alleged Sandy would come along for the ride.
It's 75 degrees in the area right now, as we turn the
page into autumn. How much longer will Howie be off?
"...The forecast calls for 2 to 4 inches in the Boston
area, lesser amounts to the South. Now here's Todd
Feinburg in for Howie..."
"...You can hear the spring training action from
Fort Myers on our sister station, AM 850. Now here's
Todd Feinburg in for Howie..."
"...Temperatures could hit 90 as we head into the
July 4th weekend. Todd Feinburg is next, in for Howie,
on WRKO..."
Feinburg again. Will Max be on?
For you timeshifters, I just got a press release from Rogue Amoeba about an app of theirs called Radioshift:
Haven't looked at it yet, though I probably will.
BTW, I still prefer Howie Held Hostage, day xxx. It's more alliteratively alluring, and all that. :-)
Mac OS X ....
For Windows, I use Total Recorder from http://www.highcriteria.com
RR uses something else.
Can we start a fund to buy-out JS's contract?
Yes, Michael Graham was in that spot before Jay Severino came back with his tail between his legs. I'd much rather Michael Graham. Totally turned off by JS's playboy act and his e-nun-ci-ation!
I completely lost it with Jay when he said that he made a huge mistake in 2004. He said that if he had to do it all over again he would vote for John Kerry. Ahmmmm....Jay? It's called the Supreme Court, look into it. It's kind of important.
I thought I remember reading that there were several deadlines that were ignored by WRKO to renew Howie's contract. So if this is true, why are we even at this point if management at WRKO ignored the deadlines?
They claim they managed to match the offer—that they had a certain period of time with which to meet the offer. Yes
Howie had agreed a couple times to extensions (maybe
to extensions in the offer window?) but they did nothing.
As soon as the WTKK offer became public, they then
made their own offer.
Here's the latest, from today's Herald:
While another court date has been set, Boston radio host Howie Carr remains a man without a station, for at least this week.
If this were a country song, this would be about an attempted breakup where the heartache keeps going. Entercom does not want to let Howie go, said Tom Taylor of radio-info.com.
Last week, Carrs debut on WTKK (96.9 FM) was thwarted after a Suffolk Superior Court judge said WRKO (680 AM) had the right to match WTKKs offer, which was struck before his WRKO contract ended.
Legal experts say the situation may have been different had WTKK waited to offer Carr its morning-drive show until after his WRKO contract expired last week.
WRKO wants him back on its airwaves. The station continues to advertise Carrs show in the newspaper and still touts him on the air and on its Web site. Todd Feinburg has taken over Carrs old afternoon-drive show for this week.
Howie will not be on WRKO. We do expect him to be on WTKK in the near future, Carr spokeswoman Nancy Sterling said yesterday.
On WTKKs Web site, the station posted a statement- its first public comment on Carr - that said it hoped hed be part of the stations team in the near future.
Now, legal experts say Carrs options include appealing the judges order, sitting it out, going back to WRKO or having all three parties sit down and talk. The court has set a status review of the case for Oct. 15.

My daughter has been involved in the learn to skate program at all 3 Perth ice rinks and Perth Ice Arena had the best program by far! My daughter has flown through the levels all due to her fantastic coach. If you want your child to learn fast and in a fun environment, this is the ice rink for you! Fabulous service and a fun and safe environment.
I'd give them zero stars if I could. Had a birthday party there recently. Zero customer service, made it clear that we had to be put ASAP so they could fit the ice hockey people in. Really rude both at time of booking and on arrival - told in no uncertain terms of us entering and what we could NOT do. No one helped us the whole time. Kicked out before the 2 hours was even up. The pictures on the website are extremely misleading- the disco wad farcical to non existent and very disappointing. The FOOTBALL was on the screen in the party room and not even any music. I feel really ripped off. Hope this saves you the experience we had!

The Emery County Local Emergency Planning Committee met for their January meeting at the Emery County Sheriff's office. The purpose of the LEPC is to help the county and the cities become more prepared for an emergency and aid in the emergency plan for the county, which is a work in progress and nearing its completion.
Capt. Kyle Ekker took charge of the LEPC meeting as chairman. This was the first LEPC meeting for Sheriff Greg Funk and Capt. Ekker introduced Sheriff Funk. Sheriff Funk thanked LEPC members for their support and volunteering to man this committee to help our community. The sheriff was asked if he sees Emery County as prepared? He answered that no one is ever totally prepared but we're headed in the right direction. Capt. Ekker added the sheriff's office has responded well to disasters ranging from small to the large scale Crandall Canyon. "We have a CERT program on board now, the ham radio club is working with us, and we will continue to train and exercise to enhance our preparedness," said Capt. Ekker.
In December 2010 Capt. Ekker joined Ron Mosher of the State in a visit to the Palo Verde Nuclear Generation Station, largest in the nation. They toured the plant as far as it was possible considering the strict security nature associated with nuclear plants. Emergency leaders told them that the best thing they could do is get on board early in the planning stages and get trained. Arizona emergency managers said that the plant was nearly built before they were involved. The station has three 1,500 watt generators and a large work force. The impact on the local small community of Buck Eye may be similar to what Green River will experience. In addition the 50 mile impact zone includes half of Phoenix, schools, dairies, even the hay stacks around the plant must be covered. There is a 10 mile plume exposure radius which requires a full exercise at least every two years. The 50 mile post flume phase impacts six counties and the reservation and requires a drill every six years.
On March 7-10 there will be a 3.5 day training in Green River at the John Wesley Powell Museum. This will cover the Federal regulations, and we need to have people trained including DWR, State Parks, Schools, Health Department, etc. Terrie Wright from the health department noted that entities often receive funds if they are part of the planning process.
If the plant proceeds it will be 8-10 years in the construction phase. The plant would be using the water from the Green River, none of the used water would go down stream. Palo Verde uses treated brown water from Phoenix.
Utah is supporting the proposed plant fully, the proposed location is northwest of Green River on SITLA ground. Discussion continued about impacts. The last nuclear accident was 20-25 years ago at Three Mile Island and minimal, if any, exposure. The safety record in Arizona is no offsite release. The proposal phase is continuing until the letter of intent is signed and submitted. This would end the planning phase. There is a 50 percent chance of the plant being built but if the water rights are granted there is 70-80 percent chance it will be a go.
Wright mentioned that the Health Department has a person in Bear River who could teach a basic radiation class for Emery County if needed.
training exercises include a full TIC with communications plan which will include seven counties in Eastern Utah on Feb. 15, 10 a.m.-noon. LEPC members are invited to observe. The scenario is a mock aircraft wreck. The goal is to talk directly to all counties without having to go through dispatch. Emery will take their command post to join Carbon's at the fairground. Other counties will remain on their own sites.

Ty Bailey is the Utah HLS community support section manager and is over the HLS liaisons. They are fully staffed now with regional liaisons. He noted that we have LEPCs because of Federal mandate in 1986. At first it was largely a hazmat focus. Each LEPC was to get together with business partners especially those with hazardous materials. Emery County has an amazing relationship with its business and civic partners.
As far as the State goes, they are getting a new EOC in the State Capitol building and will move in by the end of this year.
In 2012 the state is getting ready for Utah Shakeup multi-state earthquake exercise to include nine counties along the Wasatch Fault. Wright requested that public health and emergency response should be involved sooner. FEMA is funding and creating planning groups for the exercise. Earthquake impact to our area would likely be evacuees coming into the county and emergency assets being requested to deploy to the impact zone.
Bailey's office will be involved with the nuclear power plant.
The state is working to put together an LEPC workshop Sept. 21 to help provide better community with state and local LEPCs. They will also be inviting Federal partners from Region VIII.
