"Started good, but ended bad"
Got a credit card from them fairly easily, even though I did not have a huge income. After my balance was high for a few months, it was paid in full so that the current balance was $0.00. The following day I was called by BoA to say that they are closing my account due to a "recent credit evaluation". I tried to explain that I have just paid off ALL 6 of my credit cards and that it would not show on my credit report, but they would not hear any of it. I even asked if I could request it be closed rather than they close it (apparently this is better on your credit report) and they would not even let me do that. What is the deal BoA? I pay off all my debt in hopes of improving my credit and you tell me I can't do business with you anymore? Then you try to make my credit report look even worse? Not acceptable!

"BoA = Worst bank ever!"
Customer BEWARE:
This bank will rip you off with all their hidden charges. I recently open an account hoping that I can easily cash my paycheck which is also from BofA but I was wrong. They charged me from using their teller and WORST they charged me $33 for so-called "overwithdrawal limit" on my savings account. I did not know and nobody told me that There is a number of times where I can withdraw or transfer my savings account. I am doing all my transactions online though. I am now on the process of transferring all my automatic payments to my Chase account and after that I will close my account to Bank of America and will never be their customer again.
This Bank do not deserve to have even a star in rating. there are other banks out there so please AVOID BANK OF AMERICA if you don't want headache.

There are NO banking centers in the state of Colorado. They are downsizing into a community bank. I was traveling and lost my debit card in the state of Colorado. NEVER AGAIN. I called Bank Of America's Customer service, and they was not able to wire me any money in an emergency situation. Not to mention I was put on hold countless times. The representative was very rude, and had no sympathy for me what so ever. They FAILED to take care of me. They beat around the bush, and they acted like my money was theirs. They failed to give me any of my money at all, or make suggestions about how to get it in an emergency situation. I was lied to because the supervisor told me that he could send me money through western union, and failed horribly to do so. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND BANK OF AMERICA to anyone that travels a lot. They are inconsiderate and heartless toward people that really need money in emergency situations, and they are shutting down more banking centers as we speak. They are becoming less and less dependent for people and their money. Years ago I would have rated them high, but sadly things have changed for the worst for Bank Of America.

"Begrudgingly the best banking experience ever"
I was prompted to write this review after some infuriating experiences with other banks -- PNC Bank for my auto loan, and First Federal for my HSA account. I found myself saying the words "I never have this problem with Bank of America". I have my checking, savings, custodial savings, and a credit card with them. I have also had a car loan and a mortgage with them and I've never had a problem with any of them. They clearly invest in technology -- their online bill pay is fantastic and their ATMs are plentiful and incredibly user friendly. I had to short sell my last house because of divorce and the whole process was surprisingly gentle and straight forward. There may be other banks that are just as good, but I feel I've taken Bank of America for granted and may be a tad spoiled. I now expect to be able to use online banking for any type of loan (talking to you PNC), to be able to view complete transaction details and make quick payments online (still talking to you, PNC), to get replacements for expired cards mailed to me before they expire (that's you, First Federal), to have payments post when they are received, and to have technology that actually works -- like being able to change my address online and have it apply to all of my accounts. As long as those things remain the same there is no possibility of me changing banks.

"Worst Banking Experience EVER"
I applied for a mortgage modification. It took more than 18 months to be processed. It was approved effective Nov. 2011. It has still NOT been completed even though it was effective 17 months ago. I have been in this process with them for nearly THREE years and it still isn't completed. Customer service has been terrible. They have requested the same information from me OVER AND OVER. Information coming from them has been incorrect many times. They have changed my Account Manager more than 6 times in 6 months so no one knows what is going on. I despise them and their unethical and unprofessional business practices. If I could get rid of my mortgage or change it to anyone else, I would do it immediately. Working with BOA has been my worst experience with ANY company in my entire life.

"Rip-off in foreign exchange rate"
I converted my canadian currency to USD and thought I will get close to what we see on yahoo finance or google finance but it was off by 8% thats huge for me. I tried to call BoA customer service but they gave BS of retail rate. I had bad experience in past as well with BoA closing my account asap.

"$35 fee for 10 cent overdraft"
My account was overdrawn by 10 cents. Bank of America charged me $35. Two customer service supervisors gave conflicting reasons for the charge. My account was in overdraft for $35.10.

"less than entertaining"
Bank of America is practicing what they call the "Drop Off" which means that when you make a transaction that shows pending one day all of a sudden disappears a few days later giving you the false impression it had cleared and your reflecting balance is accurate when in fact it had not cleared and your balance is not accurate as the transaction was added back to your balance ( no record reflects this) yet hidden and left pending in BOA land. So without warning like magic it reappears on your statement deducting a second time from your balance which you thought was accurate after you made several transactions and transfers since the prior causing your balance to trigger an overdraft as it plummets below the previously thought accurate balance. Fortunately for me I was able to correct the balance by transferring funds in time to avoid any overdraft fees but still recieved the overdraft notice because of course it was my fault. which I am sure is why they practice the "Drop Off" maneuver so as to bleed the little guy dry. I tried to exsplain to BOA that there practice is faulty wrong and missleading as account balances can not be trusted. So unless you keep a written seperate log of your debit transactions fees are likely to follow. Of course they can not help if the merchant does not respond to the pending trans action in time so they simply must drop it off the acct until they do and around and around we go in this circular un ending diatribe. Of course these rules of theirs are well thought out by some one in a higher pay grade other than whom you are speaking with so it is fuetile to blame the parot. This has occured twice to me thus far so watch out for the "Drop Off" manuever and unless your from the planet BOA dont exspect them to understand your logic.

"A-Holes now charge overdraft fees on savings accounts!!"
I've been banking with BofA for about 7 years or so and I have dealt with their shady practices, they have gone beyond reproach; they NOW charge OVERDRAFT FEES FOR A SAVINGS ACCOUNT, beware, you have been warned.
When I called the rep about this she tried to play it off by circumventing my actual question by saying "well there are some things that can cause overdraft fees to occur..yada yada yada" I told her, that I know that, but that this was new to SAVINGS ACCOUNT. I knew the BS lines so I just hung up. If you "transfer" beware that you may be charged an overdraft fee if your savings account is overdrawn by one cent.

Proud owner of an excellent credit history for over 30 years. I'm a BofA credit card holder who has never once been late with a payment to any creditor in over 30 years. (I pay my obligations)
Poor returns from my business combined with my wife's ongoing chemotherapy and medical bills have caused a bind in our normal routine and have hampered our ability pay these obligations. HOWEVER WE STILL HAVE NOT BEEN LATE WITH ONE PAYMENT.
Many credit card companies acknowledge what it means to do business with someone who pays their bills. Below is a list of my other CC's These companies have not raised our rates just because they can or because we have only payed the minimum due for the past 3 years.
Citi Bank rate 1.99% (fixed)
GM Card rate: 9.49%
Chase rate: 10.24%
Capital One 11.74%
American Express Optima 12.99%
Desert Schools 14.99%
MY PROBLEM WITH BofA:
Even after receiving my payments on time for years and being aware of our dire financial circumstances BofA has raised our rate to 27.99% (Just because they can)
Bank of "America" rate: 27.99%........note: America
Who would you rather do business with?

With the unveiling of three models, Chevrolet had plenty going on at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show, and none of them happened to be this. For those that don't know, the mighty Corvette is turning 60 years old, and will celebrate the occasion by offering a 60th Anniversary Package on all 2013 models. It will go great with the Centennial Edition model parked in Jay Leno's garage. But if he's going to buy the 60th Anniversary Corvette, he's gotta make sure it's featured on the limited edition Corvette 427 Convertible.
Judging by the numerical designation, you probably already guessed what makes the Corvette 427 Convertible special: a thunderous naturally aspirated LS7 V8 engine as seen in the the Z06. That gives the 427 Convertible 505 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful Corvette convertible ever. Give it enough room to run, and it will pass 60 mph in 3.8 seconds . . . → Read More: Chevrolet Prepares Launch Of Limited-Run 60th Anniversary Corvette 427 Convertible

3. Hire the people at Acclaim who are responsible for the

You got them all now, right?
Now form a new company, and let's give Baseball fans everything they could ever want, along with a User Group that gets to present to this company every year what they would like to see.

text: Tibetan Rug, hand knotted in Nepal using 100% wool and natural vegetable dye. Exquisite rug of pure Tibetan wool, silk, and pashmina. (M48 Loma/Pangden). Tibet has a rug weaving tradition traceable back to at least the 11th century. The West's introduction to these beautiful furnishings came as recently as the 1960s when the Swiss Development Corporation set up four carpet workshops to support the then newly-displaced Tibetan refugees living in Nepal. It was here that Tibetan rugs were commercially produced for the first time outside of Tibet. The unique Tibetan double-knot weave combined with high quality Tibetan wool soon led to a wide market in Switzerland and Germany. By the early 1980s top American rug dealers, importers and interior designers started working closely with these highly skilled communities of rug weavers. Today these rugs are regarded as among the best available hand-made floor coverings. Unfortunately, due to this success, the description `Tibetan Rug` is now frequently applied to low grade imitations from other parts of Asia.

Thanks for letting me know. The @EnabledLinkedIn element was added in a snapshot build of Spring Social LinkedIn and I thought I had confirmed it working. But I'll take a look and see what I can find. I'll let you know.

Followup: I just confirmed that I can build Spring Social Showcase with no problems. The @EnableLinkedIn element is in spring-social-linkedin-1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT and that's the version that the showcase build depends on. So, I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you, unless your snapshot build of Spring Social LinkedIn is out of date. Or, perhaps, your showcase version is out of date. I can't say for sure.

Well, I'm puzzled as to why it wouldn't work. Could you dig into a few things for me?
- Confirm that the pom.xml file references version 1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT of the Spring Social LinkedIn dependency.
- Go to your Maven repo folder (mine is at ~/.m2/repository; so I cd ~/.m2/repository/org/springframework/social/spring-social-linkedin/1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT/). Then check the date/time on the spring-social-linkedin-1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.jar file to ensure that it's relatively current and then dig into it (I use "unzip -l spring-social-linkedin-1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.jar") and ensure that the file contains and EnableLinkedIn class.
- Extreme measures: Delete the .m2/repository/org/springframework/social/spring-social-linkedin folder and try to build again.

I've got the same problem today, the `spring-social-linkedin-1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.jar` simply doesn't contain any config package!
And the download came fresh from `http://repo.springsource.org/snapshot/`:
`jar tvf spring-social-linkedin-1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.jar | grep config` yields nothing and 'mvn compile' in spring-social-showcase gives me:[INFO] snapshot org.springframework.social:spring-social-linkedin:1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT: checking for updates from org.springframework.maven.snapshot

Maybe your version of spring-social-linkedin-1.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT is from a local build you made yourself using the latest sources? (that's one of the reasons using snapshots isn't recommended, you can't reproduce a build reliably)...

BTW: is there a policy regarding the creation of new issues in githup's issue tracker vs. using jira.springsource.org?
You're right. Although the config stuff *is* in the latest code in GitHub, the latest stuff in the snapshot repo goes back to April. Odd.
Actually, upon further review, it looks like the build *has* pushed the latest stuff (as recently as early this morning), but the maven-metadata.xml file hasn't been updated since April and so it keeps giving you the old stuff.
I've seen this happen before and I'll need to contact someone to help me resolve it. Given that tomorrow is a holiday here in the U.S. (and Friday a pseudo-holiday that goes with it), I may not be able to resolve this until next week. But I'll let you know when it looks like it has been fixed.
Craig Walls
Spring Social Project Lead
Give it another shot. The maven-metadata.xml file is now pointing at the actual latest snapshot (as mentioned before, it was somehow stuck at a build from April).
Try it again and let me know. If it still doesn't work, try removing the spring-social-linkedin folder from your local Maven repo and then try again.

Thanks Craig, all the sample are compiling fine now!
Another thing is deploying them, at least spring-social-showcase and spring-social-showcase-xml are not deployable in Tomcat 7. There's a TilesIOException but I think this is just a consequence of a flawed configuration, for example, both web.xml seem to have errors.
But I could figure out everything I wanted to know from looking at the code so, for me I'm currently more interested in getting a new official release, especially to have a social-linkedin release which compiles with Spring 3.0. (the latest, 1.0.0.RC1, doesn't)
Please let me know if I could do something to help, I need linkedin-integration for a commercial project I'm working on right now and hence I could offer some modest manpower here.
Could you please tell me if I should create a JIRA issues or use Githup's issue tracker if I think I've found a bug in spring-social or one of its sub-modules?
Thanks again and Happy Thanksgiving! :-)
Oooh my bad!
Please ignore my comments about spring-social-showcase and spring-social-showcase-xml not being deployable! It was my fault clearly. I've tried to exchange the EL implementation of Tomcat 7 yesterday and forgot about that fact so Tomcat's jasper-el.jar was missing today. And since I'm not familiar with Spring's Java-based configuration I blamed the config in web.xml.
My apology! Everything works fine now and in addition, the showcase shows exactly what I want to achieve: combining existing local accounts with linkedin accounts so both, local login and oauth login, are possible. In addition it seems to show the integration with spring-security which was a point I didn't really get from the documentation yet.
So, many thanks!

So the snow turned into rain and 'Snow Bunny' aka Desmond decided to bring a mouse into the house to play with sending Amy into her four year old scared shitless little girl mode. After about two hours I narrowed his location to the spare bedroom where Desmond sat and waited till he came out of hiding. He then brought it tio the door for me to put outside seeing he will not harm mice (he gets sick every time he tries to eat them, so he befriended them instead) All I can say is 'One More Saturday Night' on the lake in Maine! Keep posted for more adventures of Snow Bunny!

From best-selling author Walter Isaacson comes the landmark biography of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.
In Steve Jobs: The Exclusive Biography, Isaacson provides an extraordinary account of Jobs' professional and personal life. Drawn from three years of exclusive and unprecedented interviews Isaacson has conducted with Jobs as well as extensive interviews with Jobs' family members and key colleagues from Apple and its competitors, Steve Jobs: The Exclusive Biography is the definitive portrait of the greatest innovator of his generation.
With an introduction read by the author.
©2011 Walter Isaacson (P)2011 Simon & Schuster Inc
"More man, less tech, might have made a better book"
At the end of this book Isaacson gives us some new information, especially relating to Job's family. This was great and makes the book worth the price.
But be clear that stuff up until 1985 is far better covered in the books Isaacson has taken the stories from (sometimes distorting them in the process).
Check out:
Revolution in the Valley
Infinite Loop
Return to the Little Kingdom
for the source material of these stories.
Isaacson seems to lack the knowledge of the technical aspects and the curiosity to ask people who do know to tell the wheat from the chaff in these early stories. He will present stuff that doesn't matter and trim away stuff that does. If the only source you have for these stories is Isaacson's book you will have a distorted, and sometimes false, impression of what happened.
Now I suspect Isaacson would say he was interested in the man and the life lived and not so much these technical details. That's, in fact what I expected this book to be about with most of this tech stuff skimmed over. But Isaacson chooses to put in a substantial amount of details where he clearly doesn't know what they mean in themselves and fails to examine usefully what they tell us about the life being examined.
I don't want to give the impression this is a bad book. It is not. It is fine. But it is flawed in several ways because Isaacson seems to be disinterested in the tech and disinterested in examining what the tech means.
This could have been a better book if it was more about the man and floated past some of the tech bits that are inexact retellings of stories that Andy Hertzfeld and others have told better and, in my opinion, used better to paint what the man was like in his 20s.
I think Isaacson did not make the best use if the fact the he was given the power of 'exclusive'. As others have said, just as Steve chose the wrong guy for Apple when he chose Scully he chose the wrong guy for this book when he chose Isaacson. So many other people who had the writing skills aligned with a passionate interest in the subject could have done more with this unique opportunity. Isaacson's approach is solid, professional but pedestrian and uninspired given the amazing power he was given.
Anyway, get the book, it's well done an easily worth the money, However, do be careful about quoting too much of the details to those who are better informed on the subject because the list of corrections of technical fact and/or context you may get will be tedious for all concerned.
"Great story, fine reader."
Firstly, I don't really understand the complaints about the reader. I thought he was fine.
This is a great book, very timely and obviously one of Steve Jobs last works with him commissioning it so that his story would be told, warts and all. I couldn't put it down.
It so sad to think that we hoped Steve Jobs would show up for the announcement of the iPhone 4S when he was in fact so close to death. The book details the back story behind the releases of the iPhone and iPad and you get the impression that Jobs put all of his strength into them once he knew that his time was limited. The impending tragedy of his early death in some way contributed to some of his greatest achievements.
Only being a recent Mac convert, much of the early history was new to me. I probably disliked Steve Jobs and Bill Gates equally throughout the 90s but my impressions of them changed throughout the book. I really have a much greater respect for Bill Gates as a result of the character that is revealed in the book. I feel I have understood what Steve Jobs was about and what he was trying to achieve. Steve Wozniak comes across as the wonderful Tom Bombadill character that we know and love.
It' s hard to summarize what I feel about Steve Jobs. So much to admire, but such a flawed character. Very thought provoking story.
"Fantastic listening, finally a book that actually"
I found this audio book to be one of the best books i have heard. It was refreshing to actually hear the real stories behind the man. There is no doubt that Walter Isaacson has truly got a very detailed behind the scene account of some of the dealings not only with Jobs, but with Apple, Pixar, Next, Mac plus much more. Fantastic book
When I drive, I read... uhm listen. I like SciFi, Fantasy, some Detective and Espionage novels and Religion. Now and then I will also listen to something else.
"Brat, Business man, Visionary?"
Walter Isaacson has written an honest and thought provoking biography of Steve Jobs. He has been able to show how Steve Jobs' personality has evolved, although the trademarks of brat, business man and visionary were always lurking in the background. I think this biography do more than pay homage to Jobs, it also can serve as a history - be it from a specific point of view - of Silicon Valley and more so the Apple company.
Dylan Baker reading didn't impressed me so much. It was fair, yet not as engaging as I would've expect. At times I had to rewind to relisten as I opted out, and it was definitely not because of the content.
However, this biography comes highly recommended as Steve Jobs' story is one that deserves to be listened to.
"Just a loooong newspaper story"
Walter Isaacson commits the Cardinal literary sin of telling us what Seve Jobs did with his life rather than showing us what he did. Instead of weaving a series of narratives -- rather than relating the stories that made up the life and times of Steve Jobs -- Isaacson throws a lot of quotes at us from Jobs and others. He fills in the spaces between these quotes with a few odd details, very few of which the reader/listener can really latch onto and use to build a moving narrative in the mind's eye.
And that's a shame, considering Isaacson was writing about an evil genius who touched hundreds of millions of people, disrupted numerous industries and left behind a legacy that is already being compared to Leonardo Da Vinci.
Fact is, there is a much, much better biography of Seve Jobs, and it is even available on audible: Alan Deutchman's "The Second Coming of Seve Jobs," published in 2001. Deutchman relates all the same tales, except he actually shows us the life of this man through the power of narrative. And except that Deutchman actually includes details that are rich in evocative power.
Do yourself a favor: Download Deutchman's book; not this clunker.
a mangyan who loves to hike, to walk, to run, and to read.
Very inspiring.. i love Steve's childhood with all the "pranks", and the Tom-&-Hack team of Oaf Tobark and Berkeley Blue with their Blue-Box adventure...calling the Vatican, i wish i was there with them! Very inspiring business/life's philosophy.... a page turner! Steve Jobs, simply magical! iInspired!
I like a good story, be it fiction or reality, it should inspire, entertain, and teach.
"Who was Steve jobs?"
I would listen to this book again after a short time has passed, I worked for apple, and found it explained some of the thing I did not understand about the way the did something's, this helped me see the why in there actions. Also the book is the first real insight we get into Steve jobs, and as such it's a large book to be able to ingest all at once. There is much to discover in this books and for that I would read it again.
There was not one moment, as I am well versed in the history of apple, but I do rambler the parts where he traveled to India and sort his guru, and how he followed the zen budaist way. This was the most memorable moment as I too was born in India, understand the sights and smell he must of seen, and my parents and to some exstent also my self believe in buda. So it was nice to see a massive tech giant deal with lifes conflicting decision and what would drive him to make great products.
As stated above the part heading to India, but there many other nice moment that brought a smile to my face, like working for Atari, or building the iPhone, the next cube, but there was some moments that will frustrate you also, like the canca, and what he did around his kids, how he treated people, and so on, but in the end it's all one man's life and there is much that can be learn from it.
It is in possible to listen to in in one sitting, but I spend the corse of two week traveling back fourth from work, listening to the story unfold.
Great book to understand the man Steve Jobs, but not the book to understand apple, or how the company will and did create the products they have. It's not a book about a poor kid becomes good, it's a real life experience on some one who was greate and a complete arsshole at times. In short read and enjoy, but don't use it as some sort of study bible.
"Excellent audio book"
Great audio book. This is one of the few books which would be much enjoyable listening than reading.
"Very Inspiring"
His life story may not be different to some of us but he has contributed significant accomplishments to the digital world. He has proven to the world that any person can make a difference regardless of where he or she came from.
"As fiction it would be fascinating. But it is REAL"
I LOVE everything about this book. It is one of the most influential books I've read/ listened to in my life if not the top one. The book is balanced between personal anecdotes, business experiences and technical stuff. Actually it is not very technical. It is not only a good account of how the information age came into being but it also tells us in detail how Jobs influenced many industries with absolute drive, beauty and passion.
As I mention in the headline Jobs' life would make for an excellent fiction book. But it is REAL LIFE. I do not want to go into the details; for me it was fascinating to learn who he dealt with, from Woz to John Sculley to President Obama to Michael Eisner. It is not only WHAT we know, but WHO we know. He attracted artists, musicians, business people in his life just because of his drive and knowledge. His passion for excellence and beauty were non-stop; it is a good business tale on how to accomplish outstanding goals in the midst of chaos, economic crisis in Apple in addition to being stricken with cancer.
For me Jobs is an eample of determination. He never, never, never gave up.
Dylan Baker does an EXCELLENT job. I thank him. Very subtle and clear. An excellent narration.
I`ve recommended it/ given it to many friends, family. Everybody has enjoyed it!

A large workshop building on Hightower Road outside of Lafayette burned to the ground Friday morning, taking thousands of dollars worth of vehicles and tools with it.
The property, at 226 Hightower Road, is owned by Kenneth (Ken) and Melanie Tirjan. The workshop was a 22-ft by 72-ft building just a few yards away from the place of residence.
The call came in to the Lafayette Fire Department at about 10:25 AM, and the fire was fully involved by the time they arrived. "We weren't here," said Ken Tirjan on the scene. "My father-in-law saw it and called."
"[Tirjan] had done some work in there, and had a fire going in the wood stove… so that could have been what caused it," said Lafayette Fire Chief Keith Scruggs. "We were able to extinguish it and keep it from getting to his house, and another building next to it. Unfortunately it was a complete loss, and everything inside—there was a lot in there. There was a [Chevrolet] Camaro, a truck, a boat, a four-wheeler, and then a whole bunch of tools."
It took eighteen Lafayette fire fighters about three hours to completely extinguish the flames, and they used 13,000 to 14,000 gallons of water.
"We don't know per se what caused it," said Scruggs. "When one is destroyed that bad it's kind of hard to tell. It's just unfortunate for him. Nothing suspicious about it or anything."
Tirjan said that the building was insured.

The Cry of Fire. Early in the afternoon last Friday our village had the appearance of a holiday or'rather that everybody had left town, but this was soon proven incorrect, at about 2:30 the ring of the fire bell brought?out a good crowd in a few minutes, the alarm having been turned in from box three on Ann Arbor street. The Harmon House was the scene of excitement, and for a few minutes looked as though a hot time was near at hand. Flames were then pouring out of the north side windows of the observatory and were lashing around between the brackets, up and over the cornice. Everything was dry and ignited quickly, the flames ran high and spread with fury. Help responded quickly, tbe engine and hose were soon in readiness and Eire Marshal Kelsey seized the hose, rushed up the ladders to the then hot and furious spot when he turned in a stream that at once showed evidence of being overpowering, thus he held steady at his post until the flames were down sufficient for others to get nearer and search for and find the places further in that were burning. The fire was soon out, the black and dirty water had found its way through to the lower floor soaking walls,paper and carpets until they bore anything but their natural appearance. The origin of the scorch is not fully known, it is believed however that it came from a burning chimney which was near and quite hot. A neighbor stated that but a short time before he had seen flames coming from it. The fire first burned its -way through the floor in the observatory creeping along the window casing until it reached a broken window light which gave it draft and it tben require but a few minutes to spread. It was then, that our little fire engine again paid for itself, as buckets and palls could never have gained oontrol or conquered with the start it had, besides with; the strong nor-th-west wind that was then blowing the*town would doubtless have experienced a hot time.

In a wet season setting ont plants in the open ground is an an easy matter, in which even amateurs may succeed. During a prolonged spell of heat and drought, such as is apt to come at the sea- BECEFTACLE FOE STAK.T1NG EAELT PLANTS. son for setting late cabbages and celery plants, the gardener finds his skill put to a severe test. The most essential requirement, according to Greiner, is that the soil be moist—not wet and sticky, bnt so that it will readily crumble between the hands. If the soil be dry, it mnst be moistened by artificial watering, for planting in a dry soil, even if afterward watered, is usually fatal to the plants. A good rule is to always plant in freshly stirred soil. Many gardeners as well as fruit growers substitute for puddling dipping the roots of plants or trees in clear water just before setting them. This the authority quoted has found in his large experience to be superior to dipping in thin mnd, or puddling, as it is called. Another indispensable requisite in successful transplanting is the thorough firming of the soil around the roots. It should be packed closely and tightly. Then draw a little loose soil over the' firmed soil as a kind of mulch. Another sensible precaution observed in dry weather by Greiner and other successful gardeners is the trimming or shortening in of the tops of cabbage, celery and other plants previous to setting ont. Celery plants with excessively long roots should have the tips cut off with a sharp knife. The first cut, a reproduction from An- nalsin Horticulture, shows a German invention in -way of receptacle for starting early plants. This consists of long strips WlOW TO. CARRY OR STORE IN "PLATS. of sacking or other cheap material, the sides of which are sewed together. See out. Pieces of suitable length are cut from snch rolls, filled with earth, and in them the seeds are sown.' When transplanted, pots and all are set in the soil. The second cut shows the method of carrying or storing these cloth pots in flats or trays. Cultural Notes on Potatoes. The subject of potatoes was thoroughly disenssed at one of the last of the Wisconsin farmers'institutes. Here are a few of the more important points gleaned from a report of this meeting: Superintendent Morrison said in re- gavd \o cutting seed that it is a question of;' chpipe "with %he grower whether he \yo,vild feed the yonng plant with the substance in a large seed piece or with extra fertilizer in the hill. He thought the fertilizer the cheaper. -Mr. Martin said it was much easier to increase the quantity of yield than to increase the acres. He would never cut seed in advance of planting. Mr. T. W. Terry increases the yield per acre and decreases the cost of production of potatoes by making his land very rich and by using tools and horsepower in cultivation. He can grow the heaviest crop on any given area by hand planting, but not enough extra to, pay for the extra expense. He ^lake^'Jt^ rule neyer-p).' let i'ifeei sea Jdayligjit,' &i<i'he i^ef er letg tlie surface crust. He dp]es.'the most of the fitting of his potato field after the crop has been planted. This prepares the ground just as effectively and ao disturbs the surface that no weeds can grow. Professor Goff said there was no longer any more doubt that the bordeaux mixture, properly applied, would prevent blight, or that paris green would kill "bugs." He favored the use of § more diluted mixture and^ ^ fftor4 *S>Ht" ous qujvntity.

SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers welded wire reinforcement to be used for the reinforcement of concrete.
Note 1—Welded wire for concrete reinforcement has been described by various terms: welded wire fabric, WWF, fabric, and mesh. The wire reinforcement industry prefers the term "welded wire reinforcement" (WWR) as being more representative of the range of products being manufactured. Therefore, the term "welded wire fabric" has been replaced with the term "welded wire reinforcement" in this specification and in related specifications.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound or SI units are to be regarded as standard. Within the text the inch-pound units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values may result in nonconformance with the specification.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.

I realize it's common for people to sometimes mess up and forget to use spoiler tags. However, on the current issue of Alpha, one user, DarkPrime0, has blatantly refused to use the spoiler warning box and has gone as far as to call people stupid for reading the comments when there might be spoilers.
If there was not a spoiler alert, I might be inclined to agree that it's best not to read the comments without being completely up to date on the manga. But I assumed that since the spoiler warnings do exist, their purpose was to enable people who haven't read the chapters to enjoy the comments without being spoiled. So when someone blatantly refuses to use them as the creators of the site intended, I find it extremely stubborn and inconsiderate, and I hope there will be some action taken to prevent things like this.

The Girl Scout Gold Award is a national award and a personal challenge that a Girl Scout Senior or Ambassador may choose to pursue.
Earning The Girl Scout Gold Award requires a suggested 80 hours of planning and implementing a challenging, large-scale project that is innovative, engages others, and has a lasting impact on its targeted community with an emphasis on sustainability.
Since 1916, the Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest award, has represented excellence and leadership for girls everywhere!
Earning the Girl Scout Gold Award puts you among an exceptional group of women who have used their knowledge and leadership skills to make a difference in the world (less than 1% of all Girl Scouts earn the Girl Scout Gold Award). With talent, passion, commitment and determination, you, too, can make changes in your community and impact people around the World!
The Girl Scout Gold Award Process Prerequisites:
When your project is approved by the GSEM Girl Scout Gold Award Advisory Committee, you will receive written approval to begin your Girl Scout Gold Award Take Action Project. At that time you are ready to implement your project.
If you do not receive project approval from the committee prior to beginning your project, the project is inadmissible and project's final report will not be considered eligible.
Upon completion of your Girl Scout Gold Award Project: You must submit the Girl Scout Gold Award Final Report by the first of the month, September-June, to be reviewed by the committee that month. Within two to four weeks of submission, you will receive written approval or feedback from a committee member, if additional steps need to be taken to complete your project as agreed and approved in your original project proposal or revisions.
FINAL STEP IN THE GSEM GOLD AWARD APPROVAL PROCESS 2012-2013 - Final Presentation & GSEM Showcase
After approval of the Girl Scout Gold Award Final Report, Gold Award candidates may choose to schedule and meet with the Gold Award Advisory Committee (GAAC) to evaluate their GS Gold Award project. At this step girls present their accomplishments in a final presentation, through photos, outcomes surveys, journals and/ or other media of their choice.
Gold Award candidates may choose to attend a GSEM Gold Award Showcase, eliminating a final presentation with the GAAC. At the GSEM Showcase, Gold Award candidates attend, display and present their accomplishments to Girl Scout families, younger Girl Scouts, family, friends and leaders in the community.
Girl Scout Gold Award candidates who schedule and attend a final presentation with GAAC members may choose not to attend a GSEM Showcase, however, their final presentation submitted must be displayed at a GSEM Showcase. Final presentation will be returned to a Gold Award candidate after the GSEM Showcase in which their project is presented to the community.
It is encouraged that GSEM Gold Award candidates attend a Showcase in person.
Recognition The Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri (GSEM) honor Girl Scout Gold Awardees with a special recognition ceremony and reception in June. Awardees are presented the Girl Scout Gold Award pin and various certificates of recognition from other organizations. To be recognized at Reflections, the Girl Scout Gold Award Project must be completed and Final Report submitted by March 1 of the ceremony year. Girls will be recognized at the next year's ceremony if final reports are received after March 1. Milestones 10-year, 13-year and Graduating Seniors are recognized with a certificate from GSEM to document a girl's commitment to Girl Scouting. To receive certificates, fill out the Milestones Request form and mail by March 1 to Girl Scout Gold Award Staff Advisor.
Girl Scout Gold Award Advisory Committee The GSEM Girl Scout Gold Award Advisory Committee exists to support Girl Scout Seniors and Ambassadors through the process of earning their Girl Scout Gold Award. The committee puts in place the framework and approval process for the award. It is typically comprised of community members, educators, key volunteers and young women who have earned their Girl Scout Gold Awards. The committee's role is to ensure that girls' projects meet the national guidelines. If you are interested in volunteering for this committee, contact Nicole Dalton, email@example.com

Engagement Rings
There's no time to prepare. One friend gets engaged and the next thing you know you're surrounded by people reading The Knot and discussing whether flowers can be "sexy."
Thankfully, S. is still unengaged and decidedly appalled at the recent speed with which our friends have mated for life.
S. and I went out to dinner last night, split a bottle of wine and began viciously comparing the engagement rings of our friends. It was a welcome change from forcing yourself to ooo and ahhh and listen in rapt attention as someone debates the finer points of cutlery.
"____'s engagement ring is so…" S. trailed off, unwilling to deliver the first blow.
"Ugly?" I asked gleefully.
"So ugly!"
"_____'s is okay."
"No way! That diamond is big but it's cloudy. Totally tacky and cheap," S. said authoritatively.
"Really? I hadn't noticed."
"Oh yeah. And I'm sure she's noticed. And I bet she's pissed."
After dissecting several rings, deciding they were all ugly, and repeatedly declaring Not Anytime Soon, S. and I began talking about what we wanted our engagement rings to look like. Or, more accurately, we tried to talk about it.
"Um…" I said. "Er…"
"Yes?" S. prompted.
"I don't know, I don't really know anything about diamonds."
"Well, I do," S. said. She hesitated then added, "But I'm not sure if I like them."
We pondered this new development.
"Maybe we could get rings with other stones in them?" I suggested.
"Maybe," S. said doubtfully.
"You know, I don't even wear jewelry, like, ever. Maybe I don't want a ring at all."
"Please," S. rolled her eyes. "You have to have a really nice ring."
"Maybe when I get engaged I want a ridiculously expensive purse or something. Or a trip to Hawaii," I said defiantly. "Or maybe I don't want to get married at all. I could just live in sin with a baby."
"You get a ring so people like us don't talk about you behind your back," S. explained, a bit exasperated.
It was then that I realized that fear of what other people would say (ie. family, co-workers, the world) is actually the sole factor behind my desire to ever have a wedding, let alone a ring. It was a moment of self-realization that wasn't very helpful, since I cannot imagine overcoming this.

The recent Eleventh Circuit opinion of Mark Duke v. Richard Allen, No. 09-16011, mentioned in my previous post, also shows how important it is for any criminal (or civil) trial attorney to properly preserve issues for subsequent review on appeal. Perhaps if Mark Duke's trial counsel had secured a ruling by the trial court as to whether or not the record would reflect that the prosecutor had pointed to the defendant during the prosecutor's closing argument, the appeal could have been decided differently.
Florida appellate courts also adhere to the principal that issues not raised or preserved in the lower court are generally waived on appeal. Appellate review of an issue in a criminal case may be precluded if counsel fails to assert a contemporaneous objection, or if counsel fails to renew objections at key stages of the criminal proceedings. Key stages of criminal proceedings include the discovery phase, pretrial motions, voir dire and jury selection, opening statements, calling and examination of witnesses, admission of evidence, motions made during the course of the trial, closing statements, jury instructions, post trial motions, and sentencing. If counsel fails to timely assert proper objections, or fails to renew such objections, or fails to secure a ruling on those objections, the appellate court may be precluded from considering the issue on appeal.
Discussions of different aspects of the preservation doctrine can be found in cases such as Sunset Harbour Condo. Ass'n v. Robbins, 914 So. 2d 925 (Fla. 2005), revised on reh'g, (Fla. 2005); Melbourne v. State, 679 So. 2d 759 (Fla. 1996); Castor v. State, 365 So. 2d 701 (Fla. 1978); Castaneda ex. rel. Cardona v. Redlands Christian Migrant Ass'n, Inc., 884 So. 2d 1087 (Fla. 4th DCA 2004); Taylor v. Public Health Trust of Dade County, 546 So. 2d 733 (Fla. 3d DCA 1989); City of Orlando v. Birmingham, 539 So. 2d 1133 (Fla. 1989); Franklin v. State, 965 So. 2d 79 (Fla. 2007); and, Hamilton v. R.L. Best Intern., 996 So. 2d 233 (Fla. 1st DCA 2008).

Lawmaker wants to toss out Washington's misdemeanor pot convictions
on February 20, 2013 @ 5:52 am (Updated: 8:16 am - 2/20/13 )When voters legalized marijuana in November, prosecutors around the state started to throw out all the misdemeanor possession cases on their desks. That got one lawmaker thinking about all the misdemeanor possession convictions the state had racked-up and whether they should be tossed out too.
Having a conviction on your record, even one for something as small as misdemeanor pot possession, can really put a lot of hurdles in your life that you'll have to get over.
Now that marijuana possession is legal, state representative Joe Fitzgibbon thinks it's time to give those convicted of possession a chance to clear their records.
"Maybe we should find a way to help them start over so they don't have this conviction on their record every time they go to apply for a job, or for housing or for eduction," he said.
Fitzgibbon is sponsoring a bill in Olympia that would allow all misdemeanor pot possession convictions to be thrown out.
"Misdemeanor marijuana convictions are something that the people of Washington don't think should be a crime anymore," Rep. Fitzgibbon said. "This is about giving people a second chance. That's the state's interest."
All a person would have to do under Fitzgibbon's bill is go to a judge and ask for their conviction to be wiped from their record. It would work for those that were convicted and even those who pleaded guilty.
"There's thousands of people out there who this is going to impact in a positive way," said Fitzgibbon.
To give you a little perspective on how many people this would help, Fitzgibbon said there were more than 19,000 misdemeanor possession convictions in Washington in just the last five years.

[Translate to Englisch:] Grundlegende Designänderungen abgeschlossen
By confirming your personal data sent to us during registration via the form on our website, you herewith agree to our terms and conditions without objection. By transferring your shareholding capital to one of our accounts you also confirm, that you have understood the fact that you no longer have availability to the money deposited. The investment is not a refundable loan, but a risk investment, also called "venture-capital". By registering you undergo a binding legal agreement with RBH (advocated by its initiators) and all its dormant partners. This means that all participants are transacting their business in free agreement, alone and without interference of other persons or institutions.
Object of these terms of agreement is a participation partnership between the investors (dormant partners) and RBH, whereby RBH will be utilizing the capital provided by the investors to realize the project.
The investors do not have any decisional authority or right to information about how, when, why and to which extent RBH decides to utilize the capital in realizing the project planned.
The investor is not involved in possible losses. For the investor there are no capital reserve liabilities, as well as no further costs in addition to the deposit capital. The investor is participated in the proceeds of the Bank-holding, whose proceeds are 100% distributed to the shareholders. The yields per share are calculated by the achieved proceeds, divided by the number of distributed shares.
The capital invested can only be returned in form of profit yielded by the project. A regular payback is, as all investors are herewith informed, not possible and hereby ruled out.
Every investor is obliged to pay tax on the obtained income in sole liability. No capital yield taxes or taxes of any other kind will be retained by RBH. The full amount of dividends will be distributed to the investors. Tax will have to be paid on the gains in full amount in the home country, as far as said country raises taxes on this sort of income.
In worst case scenario the capital invested can be subject to total loss. The investor should therefore adjust the amount provided to RBH to his or her personal circumstances. RBH will take all humanly possible measures to prevent a total loss. In an extreme case this would mean selling the project to financially strong third parties, in a minimum amount that would give the investors more than original deposit – namely including profit. However, for some years now, no business or corporation has been safe from measures taken by government and public authorities. Acquisition of shares is a high risk investment. We (RBH) cannot guarantee the height of income to be expected or the resulting cash return. Therefore only invest only then, if you can bear a total loss of the money you have deposited, without taking further harm. Never take up loans to invest! By purchasing shares you do not get a guarantee to future income, but you are investing in the chance of helping to establish something new and meaningful. Therefore we herewith point out said risks to you explicitly.
As supporters of objectivism and laisszes-faire capitalism the initiators of this project have one goal only: to manage, administer and increase the capital according to these principles. Our foundation is a honest and absolutely fair partnership, in which both partners , promote each other with all possibility and a - according to this contract - morally impeccable attitude, and also support this project as well as possible by their means.
This includes e.g. an "engaging" of further investors on a voluntary base, without force and without unfair practice, a recommendation based on an advertising message. The "facilitators" do not conclude contracts, and aren't involved in any way in the relationship between investors and initiators. RBH rewards successful recommendations with a bonus system explained on respective pages, and/ or as received via e-mail.
Entitled to participation are all fully legally competent persons of age. RBH is entitled, to deny access to any partner applying to the system without giving a reason. Nobody has entitlement towards RBH this way. The partner acknowledges that RBH has the right to object the use of the partners hyperlink to the website at any time.
Changes to terms of participation are possible at any time and will be announced under adherence of 2 (two) week time. RBH will inform of and point out any changes to its contractual partners via e-mail and give the opportunity to have insight to the updated version. The partner has the right to object to these new terms within 14 days after announcement/ notification of the new terms and conditions. If RBH does not receive an objection within 14 days, the partner automatically agrees to the new terms and conditions that become a part of the existing terms of contract.
This agreement displays the contents of the contractual agreements between the involved parties and substitutes all possible agreements that were concluded between involved parties in terms of the contractual items and object of agreement. Side agreements, also those of verbal nature, have not been made. Changes or additions to the contractual agreements have to be made in written form. The same is valid for dispensation with requirement of written form.
In case of ineffectiveness or impracticability of one of the § of these agreements, the rest of the § stay effective, as well as practicable. All other terms of contract, than the one concerned, stay untouched.
This contract excludes all legal disputes between the contract partners. Conflicts will be solved in mutual agreement regarding the rules and regulations of lassez-faire-capitalism. The partners herewith agree, to help breach the spiral in their country of origin, that has obviously led to immorality and contentiousness, denunciation and an obviously erroneous comprehension of law and to work alone for the goal to multiplying the capital utilized and increasing the life standard of all persons involved (initiators and investors). Should this not be possible, the place of jurisdiction that takes effect is that in Belize.
The terms of law applicable are those of Belize.

No its another sick fuck named Jimmy Savile. Before he died last year, he was a famous television star, hero, lord of the realm, personal friend of Queen Elisabeth and Margareth Thatcher.
After his funeral, it has been discovered that he was a serial pedophile and necrophiliac. Procurer of children for the politicians, church and millionaires. Untouchable because of his ties to the royalty and the free masons.
Its quite the big thing in Britain at the moment.
She's got the addiction gene coming from both parents, will probably be a small window of time where she'll be a hell of a lot of fun.
