IF IT SOUNDS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT USUALLY IS!! I failed to remember my Dad's advice and swallowed the sales pitch hook, line and sinker. For $300, I and my sister (she is 3 yrs. older than me and in the same situation) said the salesperson, would receive phone numbers from new local businesses every 2 weeks for 3 months. These numbers would be supplied to us from the parent company, BankcardEmpire. They received the numbers from the phone company who would supply them. THUS these phone numbers would give us the opportunity to have an income of $1,000 to $3000 weekly if we diligently worked them each week, just as if we were working a 40 hour job outside the home. $500 for each new terminal Bankcard Empire installed. PLUS we would also have an additional income, of possibly $3200, beginning the next month after installation from residuals by the companies who purchased the new terminals, as we would be reimbursed at 1/2 of the percentage they paid BankcardEmpire for usage.
Now I am told we MUST PURCHASE these names at $2.00 each, in my case $5,000....if I had $5,000 to invest I don't think I would put it into BankcardEmpire, as nothing I was told has been delivered.
I spoke with a representative, Chase Payne, and he said they WILL NOT reimburse or reverse the $300 invested and charged to my credit card. I am now placing a claim of "DISPUTE" against them with my credit card company and prayerfully I will have these $300 in charges reversed.

The way that Alfred tells the story it comes off as a known legend surrounding Bane, even though it wasn't true. Talia seemed to be mostly unknown outside of the league and the pit prisoners didn't seem to equate the mercenary with Ra's if they even knew who he was. One of the things I love most about the movie is how it deals directly with legends, and not just with Batman.

Residents of West Point, Ky., listen as Billy Ash, Mayor of West Point updates the situation as they wait at a Red Cross shelter Wednesday, Oct. 31, 2012 at the Muldraugh Elementary School in Muldraugh, Ky.

text: I recently had several scrotal cysts removed by my doctor. The surgery went well and he stitched me up. I had my followup appointment with him about 3 days ago. He told me that based on what he saw, the healing would be fine and that I did not have an infection. However, today, the last of my stitches fell out and one of the incisions opened up. I can see the white membrane inside of the skin and the edges of the incision are healed. Do I need to go back and see him again, or will this heal?

Let the Games begin! Winter Olympics gets underway in Sochi with spectacular opening ceremony featuring flying children, failed snowflakes, fantastic fireworks... and some dodgy German outfits
The 22nd instalment of the Winter Olympic Games has started in spectacular fashion with the most expensively assembled opening ceremony in the history of the Winter Games.
An estimated 2,500 athletes from 88 nations will compete in 98 events across 15 disciplines, from Alpine skiing to biathlon and from snowboarding to speed skating.
Prior to those events, however, there were literally fireworks as Sochi welcomed the world. The night skyline of the Olympic Park was illuminated by a mesmersing display of pyrotechnics that began proceedings with a bang.
The opening ceremony started with a small girl flying giving an alphabetical history of Russia before flying through the air suspended by wires over a collection of floating islands featuring animatronic wolves and reindeer, which we were told depicts a journey across the country.
Five enormous illuminated snowflakes were then supposed to transform into the famous five-ringed Olympic symbol - except the final snowflake failed to blossom causing some embarrassment for the organisers, especially from the twittering masses.
Athletes arrived on the stadium floor through a molten world map, with John Eley leading out Britian's team while flying the Union Jack - closely followed by Germany who were wearing perhaps the most garish outfits on show, which in this company is an accomplishment worthy of a medal istelf.
There was also huge inflatable buildings, roller skating light shows, tennis player Maria Sharapova carrying the Olympic torch and a valiant effort to disguise Cristiano Ronaldo's model girlfriend Irina Shayk's good looks.
Relive the most memorable moments through our stunning picture gallery. Enjoy!

I am thrilled I was evicted simply because the place I moved into is hands down nicer, but my mother is still living there, the complex will not let her out of her lease. She is 83 yrs old an has been told that none of her family is to be on the property. She has asked for her hot water to be fixed, for drips to be stopped, for lighting to be replaced, and for a mold problem to be taken care off. This has been happening for 3 yrs, and her requests for repair are constantly over looked. This same manager told her that the company wanted all blacks off the property, forgetting that her grandchildren or mixed, she let this slip out. So far they have evicted almost all for one reason or another, including holding one eviction for 40 days and then demanding the tenant move within 24 hours. His crime was, he owed $30.00 for a late fee.
Peoples apartments as well as their cars have been broken into often, some women have been attacked, and the complex does nothing to stop any of these problems. The manager is only interested in blaming black juveniles, when most of the problems are coming from the white section or the hispanic groups.
Someone needs to investigate the racial prejudices in this apartment community. Eviction on the basis of race is illegal.

Yeah, sounds right to me, get shot at and then try and fight someone for shooting at you!! and of course the Police dept. would not do anything to someone "randomly shooting around the apartment" ??
Oh, never mind, of course it is race related,
because that's the only way you can condone what you and your angel(s) have done.
Blame it on someone else.

Willingness to sacrifice
By Tom Holmes
Willingness to sacrifice
I got to thinking about what I'm willing to sacrifice for the good of the country. The occasion was Paul Ryan's insistence that we have to get our national house in fiscal order by sacrificing now in order to avoid a real catastrophe down the road.
In other words—you think stopping to change the tire now will delay you. Wait until the thing blows ten miles down the road and you swerve into the other lane of traffic!
As someone who is on Medicare and has a limited income, I don't like his contention that my benefits would be cut.
Would I be willing to sacrifice for the good of the country? I realized eventually that I would be willing to give up some of my income. . .IF EVERYONE ELSE SHARED MY SACRIFICE.
In my condo building, for example, we spent something like $120,000 recently on a new elevator, fire alarm upgrades, painting, etc. The board decided to increase the assessments instead of drawing down our reserves. At the open meeting at which the board laid out its plan, there was a lot of grumbling, but in the end everyone got on board with the plan, because of two things. 1) They came to believe that the increase in assessments was necessary, and 2) they saw that everyone was sharing the hardship more or less equally.
My religious faith tells me that sometimes I have to sacrifice some of what's good for me for the good of the whole. My sense of fairness says, "But let's make sure everyone steps into the harness and does what they can to pull the load."
That's what I'm looking for from Governor Romney and President Obama all the way down to our village officials. Convince me that the cuts in my benefits are necessary and show me that everyone is sacrificing with me.

Tom, please do more research and stop falling for scare tactics. Under Ryan's plan, NOTHING gets cut for everyone currently on Medicare. YOUR benefits stay intact; you're not sacrificing ANYTHING. The changes are for people like myself who are not yet on Medicare. Still, the idea of shared sacrifice has merit: For instance, what if all U.S. citizens paid a minimum federal income tax, even if just $20? Since nearly half the nation pays NO U.S. income tax now, shouldn't we all share a little bit?

Toronto city council has appointed new councillors for the vacant seats in Trinity-Spadina and Etobicoke-Lakeshore.
Ceta Ramkhalawansingh replaces the outgoing Adam Vaughan in Ward 20 (Trinity-Spadina), after he resigned and was elected a Liberal MP.
Both needed at least 21 votes of support from other city councillors to earn the appointment.
Ramkhalawansingh earned 22 votes in the second round of voting at a special council meeting on Monday.
She is a long-time city bureaucrat who retired in 2010.
These days, the 62-year old serves as a political advocate and is a board member with the charitable group Toronto Community Foundation.
More than 100 people endorsed her before the meeting, including former mayors John Sewell and David Crombie.
Ramkhalawansingh once worked for the city as manager of diversity management and community engagement.
Lawyer James Maloney has been appointed interim councillor for Ward 5 (Etobicoke-Lakeshore). He won with 24 votes on the second ballot.
The 49-year old is a registered member of the Liberal parties of Ontario and Canada, having worked for heavy-hitters like Laurel Broten and Michael Ignatieff.

Roach: Good Stoppage, Amir Khan Never Fully Recovered
By Osman Rodriguez
WBA/WBC junior welterweight champion Danny Garcia stopped heavy favorite Amir Khan in the fourth round to stay undefeated and unified their respective titles at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. Khan started fast and hard, pounding Garcia for six minutes. The fight changed in the third round, when Garcia's left hook nearly took Khan out. He hit the mat hard and barely survived the round. He was dropped twice more in the fourth before the fight was stopped.
Khan was not happy with the stoppage.
"I was a little surprised the referee stopped it. I thought he was going to let us continue. My mind was clear and I thought my legs were okay but I respect the referee, the judges and the commission, maybe they made the right call."
But the fighter's trainer, Freddie Roach, does not disagree with the stoppage. He felt the referee, Kenny Bayless, made the right decision.
"I think it was a good stoppage. He never really recovered from the first knockdown. The referee did the right thing," Roach said.
"Amir never got his legs back after the first knockdown. I almost didn't let him go out for the next round."
Good post. Noone seems to understand what actually happened to Khan. He got hit in the NECK where a main artery is. That punch disconnected his brain from his body and he never recovered. The 2nd knock down hit him…Comment by josenoway on 07-15-2012

In September of 2000, to continue our growth and maintain our competitive edge, our Board of Directors and membership voted to finalize our application for a community charter and formally change our name to Tradesmen Community Credit Union. This important step expanded our membership eligibility to include anyone who lives or works in Central Iowa's Polk County and its seven contiguous counties.
We built our rock-solid foundation with the hard-working men and women of the local trade unions. With our community charter, we can build on that foundation to the benefit of all our members, by adding new products and services and continuing to be the full-service financial institution our members have come to rely on.

Hello friends! I will be traveling from Berlin to Dresden on Monday morning, 17/10. I am hoping to be in Munich by Thursday, 20/10 as to give Munich and my desired day trips ample time. I must leave Munich on Wednesday, 26/10.
I know I'm squeezing alot in but don't know the next time I'll be back. I only have three nights and two full days (the other days will be for traveling, arriving, checking-in and seeing what we can see before days end) - should I do one night in Dresen and two in…
We have been doing a lot of research on this 25 day trip but always want to know anything that anyone has done that is amazing. We will be spending 3 nights in Munich and are open to the castle area where they have the two castles - is that worth driving to? Maybe Saltzburg? Were going to do the English Gardens and wonder how the FAT Tire Tours are. We have the Germany travel guide, maps, but just wanted to get some word of mouth recommendations.
Thank you in advance for your trouble in…
We will be in Berlin for 3 nights and will have a car available. Any special recommendations? We were thinking of doing the Berlin City Bike Tour or any other recommendations that anyone might recommend. We are open to just about anything.
We are also then driving from Leipzig to Nuremberg. Again....any recommendations as far as sites to see, little towns, etc.
Thank you in advance for your time in responding.
Hi - I booked a non-cancellable hotel for Friday 23/09 - Sun 25/09 for Oktoberfest (large double room) and cannot go. If anyone is interested please contact me. Am willing to let go for a discount. It is 4 star and on the sub-way to the main festival area
I'm planning a trip from Berlin to Prague in Sept. I have a week and I plan on spending 2 days in Berlin before heading to Prague via Dresden for a day / few hours.
I have a few questions:
- Is it worth stopping over in Dresden for a few hours or a day?
- Apart from the obvious things to check out in Dresden, does anyone have any recommendations?
I'm mostly into music, culture and food.
I'm considering a holiday of about 9-10 days to Berlin and surroundings this autumn. I would go by car and park that at some P+R at the edge of town. I will probably bring my folding bike to get around the city. I think I want to do about 3 nature daytrips; driving to some forest and hiking, then back to Berlin for the night.
I like hiking in colorful forests, but I'm going alone and would need some easy, fool-proof signposted hiking trails where I can't get lost, and where enough other…
Hi all.
A group of 6 of us will be in Oktoberfest for the last weekend (30th Sept to 3rd Oct).
We've got travel and accommodation sorted.
However, I'm getting mixed messages about the main festival itself.
We haven't booked seats in a tent.
I've heard that if we turn up at the start of the day (9am) we may be able to get one as not all are reservable. But chances slim at any other time.
My questions:
1) how true is this? Do we have to have reserved to have a chance at getting seats? Going…
Hi, A last minute decision to go to Berlin for the Bank Holiday weekend this weekend - any tips for accommodation please? We always like a comfortable relatively upscale room, but with the pound down we would appreciate any tips on something a bit less expensive - somewhere central (Haha, yes I know I am asking for a lot!)
Thanks in advance.
Passed through MUC in July but did not bother to use the (free) wifi. From what I understand you have to register to be able to use it. I wonder if I can register from outside the airport (network). Does anyone know the url of the registration page (and care to share it)?
Hey everyone my name is Rose, I'm flying to Germany alone from the U.S. to go to Oktoberfest September 16th - 23rd. Then from September 23rd - October 1st I'll be taking the train around Germany exploring the castles.
I want to know if anyone would want to be a travel buddy with me? Maybe meet up at Oktoberfest or go see the castles? It would be nice to have a friendly face around to talk to.
If anyone is interested please add me on snapchat so we can talk and know that we aren't creeps lol My…

Victim in Texas parade crash accused of lying
ATLANTA (AP) – An ex-police officer from Georgia who was injured in a train accident during a veterans parade in Texas is accused of lying about receiving a Purple Heart medal and was arrested Wednesday, Cherokee County sheriff's officials said.
Former Holly Springs police officer Shane Ladner, 40, was never awarded a Purple Heart and is charged with four counts of theft by deception, false swearing and giving a false statement to police, Cherokee County Sheriff's Lt. Jay Baker said.
Ladner presented a military discharge form claiming that he was the recipient of the honor when he applied for a free Purple Heart license plate in 2009, Baker said, adding that Army officials have no record of the form that Ladner presented to get the plate.
Ladner and his wife, Meg, were among those injured in a mid-November train crash in Midland, Texas, that killed four people. One of Meg Ladner's legs had to be amputated.
The Ladners made the trip to the west Texas city to participate in an annual event that honors wounded military veterans with a parade, a banquet, a hunting trip and more. The event was organized by Midland-based Show of Support.
It's unclear whether Ladner provided the event's organizers with the same discharge form authorities say he used to get the free license plate. A call to the organization Wednesday afternoon was not returned.
To get the free Purple Heart license plate, Ladner was required to swear that he was a recipient of the honor and went through a renewal process to keep the plate for the next three years, Baker said.
"He benefited financially all four years _ that's where the four charges of theft by deception come from," Baker said, adding the charge of giving false statements to police "stems from an interview in which investigators feel he lied."
Sheriff's officials said they only investigated Ladner's application for the free license plate, not the Army discharge form he used to get it.
The Stolen Valor Act, which was recently signed into law by President Barack Obama, made it a crime to fabricate military honors with the intent of benefiting personally or financially. The crime is punishable by fines, up to a year in prison or both.
A spokesman for the U.S. District Attorney in Atlanta said federal officials were not involved in the case as of Wednesday.
Ladner was in the Army between 1990 and 1994 and reached the rank of sergeant. He served for a year in Honduras, according to Army human resources officials. He transferred to the Army Reserve and was discharged in 1997 after completing his service obligation. After that, he served in the Army National Guard between 1999 and 2005.
Ladner was a recipient of nine different military awards, including the Army Achievement Medal, two National Defense Service Medals and the Humanitarian Service Medal, according to Army officials.
Nothing in Ladner's files or in the Army awards branch includes a record of him receiving a Purple Heart, or any documentation proving that he's entitled to one, officials said.
Ladner's Texas-based attorney, John Cook, said in a statement that his client did receive the military honor and would be owed an apology when all the information comes to light.
"We're disappointed that law enforcement authorities felt the need to arrest Shane Ladner today, especially in the manner that it happened, a traffic stop on the side of the road," Cook said. "This arrest serves no purpose other than to continue to traumatize Shane and Meg Ladner, both of whom are still recovering from last year's train accident."
Ladner was taken to the Cherokee County jail on $23,100 bond, which his wife posted Wednesday evening.

The course begins with an exploration of Photoshop features that make changes to an entire image: the Crop tool, the Auto button that's present in many adjustment dialog boxes, and the Curves panel options. Next, Bryan explores sharpness and blur. Each has its place in a photograph, and Bryan details how the sharpening and blur features work and how to get the most out of them.
The course also looks at adjusting specific areas of an image with the Dodge, Burn, and Sponge tools, and at the growing array of content-aware features in Photoshop, showing how they work and what to do when they don't work. The course concludes with a tour of the powerful Liquify filter, features for correcting lens distortion, and the world of presets that allow you to apply settings with a single click.
- Reinventing the Crop tool
- Rediscovering the Auto button
- Getting the most out of curves
- Understanding Smart Sharpen
- Building blur and softness
- Working with a graphics tablet
- Using Content-Aware Fill, Scale, and Move effectively
- Correcting distortion automatically based on lens profiles
- Using presets
Skill Level Intermediate
Photoshop can be an intimidating application and I think the most intimidating feature in Photoshop is Curves. The whole idea of wrangling a diagonal line to yield a proper exposure is pretty foreign to people. The first place that I want to show you how Curves work and how easy they can be is in Camera RAW. And again, I could pass a JPEG, a TIFF or a RAW file through here and Curves work a little differently in here. We've taken the familiar diagonal line over the Histogram, but we've wired it to sliders that mean something to all users.
So for instance, if I want to take the Dark area of this image and make it darker, I just pull that slider to the left. If I want to make the Light area and make it lighter, I pull that slider to the right, and I see that I've built a nice S shaped curve, which introduces contrast. So this is really easy to work with and I can apply it to multiple images really quickly. One of the things that I hear when I show this to people is that's really great but there's not enough control, I need more than just four sliders. So I want to show you a quick trick here.
The first thing I want to do is reset this and a great tip for Photoshop and Camera RAW is hold the Alt or Opt key and it changes the Cancel button into a Reset button, so we can start over here and you'll notice we've got these little controls at the bottom of the histogram and if I pull the one on the left, which is my Shadows, all the way over and I pull the one on the right, which is the Highlights all the way over. Now these sliders aren't mapped to 25 stops, they're mapped to 10, which is to say that my Highlights are much more precise.
If I make those darker I'm only affecting a little bit of the histogram. If I make the Shadows darker, I'm only affecting the darkest regions, and so now I can play around a bit more with the middle portion. So you can move around those quadrants and make the sliders work the way you want them to. So that's how Curves work in Camera RAW and it's the same for Lightroom. You could also use a Point Curve which is similar to Photoshop, but show you that, let's look at how we've changed Curves in Photoshop.
So I'm going to come over here to my Adjustment panel and select Curves and I'll get that same familiar interface with the histogram of the diagonal line and we've talked about Auto before, this is one of the easiest ways to just get a quick start on our image here. The other thing that we could do here is we could choose one of our Presets, so we've got all these different presets. If I want to get that same Strong Contrast or S shape curve, I can just click on that and I get that really quickly. Now with any of these presets, I can grab an individual point and play around with that.
I can pull that around and change the result a bit, and I start to understand how these are working. I think the most powerful and one of the least known ways to work with Curves intuitively is to use this On Image control. So if I were to just reset this and grab this little control right here, what that allows me to do is click on a region of the image and you can see that it's changing as I hover over and I'm just going to click on the sky and pull that down, I'm going to make that area darker.
If I click on the Shadows and pull down, it'll make that area darker. If I click on this midtone on the shed there and lift that up, it'll make that area brighter, and I can get a great result really quickly and easily, and remember, as with any of these, I can come in here and save my presets as well.

Sounder bases
System Sensor's B200SR intelligent sounder bases can be used as part of a general evacuation signal.
System Sensor launched the B200SR intelligent sounder bases, which support the System Sensor synchronization protocol, enabling them to be used as part of the general evacuation signal. They meet UL 268 and UL 464 requirements. Installers attach the mounting plate to a standard junction box, which is left free to store excess wire. The base then connects to the mounting plate for a surface-mount look without exposed components. The base's mounting screws are then covered by the attached sensor head to prevent tampering.

IN PERSON; From Behind the Center to Behind the Mike
By ROBERT STRAUSS
Published: January 14, 2001
MOUNT LAUREL— TWO large television monitors show the quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings, Daunte Culpepper, flow out of the grasp of the Green Bay Packers' Vonnie Holliday and throw an 80-yard touchdown pass to his wide receiver, Randy Moss.
And then they show it again. And again. And again. The mustachioed man in the chair by one monitor moves the play forward and back, six, eight, a dozen times with his remote control. By now, even the video version of Mr. Culpepper must be tired of eluding Mr. Holliday's clutches.
But for the man with clicker, Ron Jaworski, the minute analysis of this month-old play is what revs him up.
''I love watching films,'' said Mr. Jaworski, three hours into an eight-hour session of watching such National Football League moments with his producer at NFL Films, Greg Cosell, and two other associate producers. ''I still get excited about all this.''
Mr. Jaworski, a dozen years removed from his playing days as an N.F.L. quarterback, spends much of his fall and early winter watching game films and chatting up players and coaches for his multimedia football analysis outlets. On Tuesdays, he does a Webcast analyzing the coming week's games for the new nflfilmstv.com Web site. Then there is his weekly radio analysis on KYW-AM, the all-news station in Philadelphia. And, finally, there are his varied radio, Web and television gigs for ESPN.
''It's the second-best job, next to N.F.L. quarterback,'' said Mr. Jaworski. ''And I've already done that. So how can you beat it?''
This is how: You could also be vice chairman of the board of the South Jersey Chamber of Commerce, own a couple of golf courses, be the president of the Maxwell Football Club in Philadelphia, buy and sell hotels and sports clubs, head the local United Way, serve on the boards of colleges and banks, dabble in politics, watch your children's sporting events and do it all with elan.
''It's been a long season,'' said Ray Didinger, an NFL Films producer. ''Everyone here is fried but him. Jaws comes in enthusiastic as if it was opening day.''
Mr. Jaworski said his work ethic came from two sources: his parents and his first coach with the Philadelphia Eagles, Dick Vermeil.
''I didn't grow up with much, but my parents both worked and worked hard,'' said Mr. Jaworski, 49, who spent his childhood in Lackawanna, a suburb of Buffalo, N.Y., before going to Youngstown State University in Ohio, where he set records as a quarterback and then was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams. He spent four years there and was traded to Philadelphia in 1977, where he matured under Mr. Vermeil. ''Dick taught me how to focus,'' he said.
Though he never won any championships in his 17-year career, it was full of highlights. He was the only quarterback ever to lead the Eagles to the playoffs in four straight years, culminating in a Super Bowl appearance following the 1980 season, when he was named the National Football Conference player of the year. He holds Eagles records for passing yardage (27,000) and touchdown passes (175).
''What I really liked about him was that more than anything, he cared about winning games,'' said Mr. Didinger, who covered Mr. Jaworski's career while a sports columnist at The Philadelphia Bulletin and The Philadelphia Daily News. ''It didn't matter whether he threw four touchdowns or none. It wasn't about his stats. It was about winning. That's why everyone loved him.''
Though Mr. Jaworski ended his career with two years in Miami and one in Kansas City, he had found a home in South Jersey.
''When I came to the Eagles, someone was showing me property around Villanova, in the western suburbs,'' he said. ''I drove on the expressway there through traffic. Then I realized I had Dick Vermeil as a coach. If he called an 8 a.m. practice, you had better be there at 8 a.m. So I moved where it was more convenient, in South Jersey.''
There he started his extra-football associations. First it was with the United Way and the Eagles Fly for Leukemia charities. His contacts led him into land and golf course development deals, which led to workout clubs and sporting goods stores and hotels. He took on membership chair duties at the languishing South Jersey Chamber of Commerce and in a few years raised it from 600 to more than 2,100 companies. His expertise in glad-handing led others to think of a new career for Mr. Jaworski in politics.
''In the early 1990's, Lee Atwater called me down to Washington to meet people,'' he said of the Republican Party chairman. ''They thought of running me for Congress against Rob Andrews,'' the
Congressman. After meeting various bigwigs, he continued, he was taken to see Jack Kemp, his own former Congressman.
''So we smile for the cameras and then we go into his office, said Mr. Jaworski. ''Before my backside hits the chair, he says, 'What the heck do you want to do this for?' So I backed off. Good thing, too, since Andrews is a pretty good guy.''
The statement is typical Jaworski, said friends of his.
''You won't find him saying a bad word about anyone,'' said Steve Sabol, the president of NFL Films. ''And he is by far the hardest-working ex-jock in the business. There is no one who does more homework.''
Mr. Jaworski said he got calls all the time from recently retired athletes asking how to get into broadcasting.
''I tell them all the same thing,'' he said. ''Get what you can and don't worry about what they will pay you.''
''Listen, when I started doing pregame shows on radio for the Eagles, they paid me $200 a day. These guys don't understand you pay your dues in anything you do new.''

Corporate Advocacy Program™
What Im about to say may be considered unbelievable in America, but it is the gods truth. Commissioner Jon Norheim contacted me outside the Las Vegas family court and openly solicited a bribe from me for $100,000 cash in exchange for releasing my father from a corrupt guardian. It all began three years ago.
In 2008 my father who was a resident of Las Vegas injured his head in a fall. He suffered moderate brain damage. Our family lives in Seattle Washington. My two sisters and I flew to Las Vegas and petitioned the court to bring father home where we could watch over him. To anyone reading this report this sounds like a perfectly reasonable request, which any family would do for a parent who was deeply loved. Naturally we were told a Nevada lawyer would be needed to draft our petition. We hired Alan D Freer. Mr. Freers first move was to convince us to appoint a temporary guardian. Freers first choice was Jared Shafer who was the former public guardian for Clark County. Again this sounded completely reasonable. Alan D Freer told us Mr. Shafers objective was to help us get our father out of state. Mr. Freer said Mr. Shafers guardianship was only temporary. We believed all statements that Mr. Freer told us. Everything Alan Freer said turned out to be a lie.
The case dragged on. After 9 months Jared Shafer called me at my home in Seattle and said your father will never leave the state. When a senior moves to Nevada, they will not be allowed to leave. Shafer went on to say wise up stupid, Alan Freer works for me. If Mr. Freer even thought of fighting this system, Freer would never be allowed to work in this town again. I was shocked to hear this. Shafer made this statement over the telephone. Patience Bristol was on the call. And I heard her say you better listen to what Mr. Shafer says. Jared Shafer went on to say if you fight us in family court, I will bleed your fathers estate dry. I will use your fathers money to fight against you and that is my entertainment in this game. I never heard anyone talk this way before.
My first thought was that I was in a B rated movie or perhaps in the middle of a bad nightmare caused by indigestion. Unfortunately this was not the case. What occurred was in real life and I was fully awake. My father went to the hospital for dehydration and that fact wasnt a bad dream. My next move was to contact the media, but quickly learned the Las Vegas media was not interested in writing or televising stories about the corruption of Jared Shafer. Alan D. Freers legal fees kept mounting up and after 2 years, we had paid Solomon Dwiggins Freer and Morse over $125,000 for services, which were never performed. In fact Freer was really working for Jared Shafer instead of us. Ms. Dwiggins of this firm was threatening to destroy our credit because we owed her an additional $10,000 for services, which were never performed. Things were looking very bad for my father. He had been placed in Chancellor Gardens, a retirement home, which had over 108 State recorded violations. Both Jared Shafer and Alan Freer kept insisting Chancellor Gardens was the best facility they could find in Las Vegas for my father.
I went to Las Vegas and stayed at the Sun coast Hotel. While eating dinner at the seafood bar, a waiter told me I had a phone call. This was strange because I carry a cell phone. The waiter handed me a cell phone. A voice on the other end said when you finish eating come to the front desk. I finished and proceeded to the front of the hotel. Patience Bristol was waiting for me. She said, please follow me outside. I walked outside of the hotel and standing in front of me was Commissioner Jon Norheim. Commissioner Norheim said we can resolve this matter in a way, which would be equitable to all parties concerned. Norheim said your father is worth $450,000 and he has a pension of $4,000 per month. I will issue a ruling in your favor if you give this nice young lady $100,000 cash. Norheim paused waiting for my reaction. I stood frozen in one spot. Patience said think of it like this, you might have to pay an attorney more than $250,000 to overturn our rulings. Paying this money will save you $125,000. Everyone will be satisfied and Jon Norheim will have the case sealed so no one will know the details of your personal business.
I was dazed by the brashness displayed by this group. My next move was to call a family friend who was an attorney with the Department of Justice. She strongly advised me not to pay the money. Her next statement was not what I wanted to hear. She said government budget constraints have forced the Department of Justice not to pursue guardianship or family cases. It was sad that these people have been allowed to run wild.
As of the date of this report Ive not paid the money. The Las Vegas police have been contacted and a report has been taken. The follow up has been very poor at best. The FBI is not interested in this case for the same reasons. As I end this rip off report only a series of questions remain. How many families have been forced to pay large amounts of money to take their loved ones away from Nevada? Who are the people getting paid? Is Jon Norheim and Jared Shafer the only people getting these bribes? I dont know. Im a locksmith and my wife is a school teacher. What will be done in the future is anyones guess. We can only hope for a better tomorrow for seniors like my father.

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. (Acts 2:4, NIV)
God performed a great miracle in the early church. The Bible says of the apostles on the Day of Pentecost that, "All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them." (Acts 2:4, NIV) God empowered the apostles to speak other languages in order to advance the gospel.
This isn't a miracle we need in today's world. The Church speaks every language in the world. We speak more languages than the United Nations. But there is a deeper truth from this passage.
From the very beginning of the Church, God expected us to share the gospel in many languages and through many channels. You probably don't realize it but you know many different languages. Even if you don't have different dictionaries or grammars for them, you still speak these languages on a regular basis. For instance, if you are a mom of a preschooler, you can talk with other moms of preschoolers like no one else can. If you're a baseball fan, you can talk to other baseball fans in ways other people can't. If you're an engineer, you understand other engineers.
The gospel is for everyone. We need to use every communication channel at our disposal to share it with those who need to hear it. The languages you speak aren't just the ones codified in dictionaries. Every interest you have can be a vehicle for the gospel. Every commonality you share with a friend can be an opportunity for you to tell them about Jesus.
You have interests and experiences that you've probably never considered using for sharing the gospel. On the day of Pentecost, God distributed the gospel among every language in attendance. He wants to use every language the Church has at its disposal today too.
What languages do you speak that God could use to share the gospel?
Based on Jesus' very own words in the Beatitudes, this DVD and workbook guides you through eight critical choices that every wounded believer must make in order to experience wholeness, happiness, and healing. These essential decisions will build your trust in God even when you don't understand his plans and your circumstances look hopeless.
Join Pastor Rick for this series of broadcasts on "Life's Healing Choices" as he walks through the Beatitudes from Matthew 5, which are the eight steps to physical, emotional, social, financial, and personal health.

The holidays couldn't exist without a bit of twinkle. But what about a whole bunch of it? Nothing says Christmas like "aloha," and Aloha Adventure Park is saying it with their Grand Festival of Lights, boasting more than a million lights in fabulous holiday fashion. Just don't tell Al Gore. This isn't just a drive-through-and-look kind of festival, though. Aloha pulls no punches with their celebration, offering a "dramatic Nativity presentation," local performers caroling the night away and a carnival just for the kiddos. Oops, I almost forgot the hayrides, petting zoo and food. Um, can I live there? The Grand Festival of Lights is open nightly through January 5, 2008, at Aloha Adventure Park, 1951 Summit Ave. (on the northwest corner of Interstate 35 and FM 407 in Lewisville). For schedule and further information, call 972-317-7373 or visit alohaadventurepark.com.

I'm pleased an announce a special project for Public Ethics Radio. Christian and I, along with the talented producer Barbara Clare, are in the process of producing a special episode on the war in Afghanistan. The roots of this project are simple: we want to understand the war. As any observer can tell you, this isn't easy.
My own impression, having loosely followed discussion of the war since its inception, is that Afghanistan has not received nearly the same depth of scholarly attention as the war in Iraq. This is understandable—there was a fairly wide consensus in the early years that the war in Afghanistan was just. It was straightforward self-defense against aggression. This consensus on the rightness of the war endured largely throughout the Bush presidency, but has very publicly begun to erode along with the nascence of "Obama's war." Clearly Afghanistan is in a very different state today than it was in 2001. But what is this state? Have the goals that were set out at the time of invasion been met? When would it be appropriate to leave Afghanistan, or ought we to have left already? Are the tactics we employ undermining our successes? Should we be trying to create a new, democratic, right-respecting government in Kabul, or should U.S. and NATO soldiers aim simply to hunt down Al Qaeda and the exporters of international terrorism?
These are just a few of the questions that spring to mind when we contemplate Afghanistan. While we slowly piece together what we hope will be an enlightening show on these questions, we'll be posting a series of discussions of just war theory as it applies to Afghanistan. The first is a look back at 2001 and the initial discussions of jus ad bellum, or the justice of the resort to war. More will follow shortly. We'll also post round-ups of good reporting and analysis. Stay tuned.

This was Matthew Ingram's third tour in the U.S. Army. He had been to Iraq twice and left May 28 for a third trip, this time to Afghanistan.
Ingram leaves behind his wife, Holly, and their 10-month-old daughter, who live in Colorado where Ingram was stationed at Fort Collins.
Ingram grew up in east Mississippi and attended Newton County High School.
Ingram is the tenth soldier from this area to die in service since 9/11.
According to family members, services have not yet been set.

WOOO!@#@!!@ YES! Forget about T.O. wearing a Cowboys jersey on the plane ride home from Dallas, Philly.com is reporting that Ed Wade has been fired as GM of the Phillies. It will suposedly be announced at 4:00.
ED WADE FIRED! It's about time.
CHICAGO – The Phillies got a nice start from Jerad Eickhoff, mostly good bullpen work and plenty of timely hitting in posting a 5-3 win over the Chicago White Sox in interleague play Wednesday night.
The Phils had been outscored 18-1 in losing their previous two games to the White Sox and St. Louis Cardinals.
The Phillies are 59-68. They are four wins shy of last year's majors-low total of 63.
Starting pitching report
Eickhoff (9-12) pitched six innings of two-run ball and left with a 4-2 lead after throwing just 71 pitches. Eickhoff scattered four hits, walked nine and struck out two. The sixth inning has been a problem for him this season. He has allowed 26 earned runs over 19 innings for a 12.32 ERA in the frame. Eickhoff did hold it together and limited the damage to two runs in the sixth before handing off to the bullpen.
Eickhoff's ERA in the first five innings of a game this season is 2.64.
White Sox right-hander James Shields gave up four runs over six innings. He is 5-16 with a 5.98 ERA.
Bullpen report
The trio of Edubray Ramos, Hector Neris and Jeanmar Gomez closed it out for the Phillies.
Gomez survived a run in the ninth for his 34th save.
Ramos and Neris both pitched a scoreless inning.
Since the All-Star break, Neris has pitched 18 1/3 innings and allowed one run and two walks while striking out 26.
At the plate
Tommy Joseph had a nice game with a double, his 17th homer and two runs scored. Aaron Altherr had a pair of RBI singles and scored a run. Freddy Galvis doubled home a run and Cesar Hernandez homered.
Dioner Navarro smacked a two-run homer off Eickhoff in the sixth.
Trade talk
There's interest in Carlos Ruiz (see story).
Up next
The Phillies are off on Thursday. They open a three-game series against the Mets in New York on Friday night. Here are the pitching matchups:
Friday night – LHP Adam Morgan (1-7, 6.21) vs. RHP Bartolo Colon (11-7, 3.36)
Saturday night – RHP Jeremy Hellickson (10-7, 3.60) vs. RHP Noah Syndergaard (11-7, 2.61)
Sunday afternoon – RHP Vince Velasquez (8-6, 4.31) vs. RHP Robert Gsellman (1-0, 0.00).
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Rookies Keegan Rosenberry and Fabian Herbers scored to help the Union beat the Columbus Crew 2-1 on Wednesday night.
Rosenberry gave the Union (10-9-7) a 2-1 lead in the 74th minute. Tranquillo Barnetta one-timed a feed to Rosenberry who trapped it with his right foot and blasted a left-footer through a pair of defenders and past goalkeeper Steve Clark.
Herbers, making his fifth start of the season, opened the scoring in the 60th. Chris Pontius tapped it to Herbers who, from the top of the box, had a shot blocked by Hector Jimenez before side-netting the rebound. Both of his two career goals have come against Columbus (4-9-11).
Adam Jahn tied it in the 73rd minute. Tony Tchani's header, off the corner by Federico Higuain, was deflected off the crossbar by goalkeeper Andre Blake and -- after a failed clearance by the Union -- Jahn tapped it in from close range.
It was the Union's third consecutive home win.
Columbus has one win in its last 11 matches.
CHICAGO — Another trade deadline arrives next Wednesday.
Could a Phillies veteran such as Ryan Howard or Carlos Ruiz, the lone holdovers from the 2008 World Series championship team, be on the move?
ESPN reports that both players have cleared waivers, which would make them eligible to be dealt. Players traded after Aug. 1 must first clear waivers. They have to be on a new team's roster by Sept. 1 to gain postseason eligibility. Players traded after Sept. 1 are not eligible for the postseason.
Howard has been available for a trade for a couple of seasons, but there has been no interest. Even now, with him hitting .339 with seven homers, 16 RBIs and a .742 slugging percentage since the All-Star break (entering Wednesday), there remains little interest, according to sources. Howard is still owed about $16 million in the form of salary and a $10 million contract buyout for 2017, but that would not be an impediment to a deal as the Phils would eat that. Still, it's unlikely he will be traded because most of the American League contenders are set at designated hitter, which would be his optimal role.
So, Howard, 36, is likely to play out the final year of his contract with the Phils, take his well-earned bows and exit either to retirement or a new team next season. He says he wants to keep playing.
Ruiz, 37, is also in the final year of his contract. Like Howard, he has swung the bat well recently, hitting .298 with a .433 on-base percentage in his last 26 games. He's a backup catcher at this stage of his career, but that could appeal to a team like Cleveland or Boston, contenders who could be in the market for catching depth.
A baseball source said the Phillies have received some recent "nibbles" on Ruiz. It's unclear if a deal will reach the finish line.
As players with 10 seasons in the majors and five consecutive with the same team, Howard and Ruiz both have the power to block a trade. It's doubtful that either would because both have stated that their goal is to play in the postseason again.
"I'm still happy here," Ruiz said. "We'll see what happens. If that happens, it happens. If it doesn't, I'm going to play."
Howard has taken the same attitude.
"Those are situations where I guess you've got to see what presents itself," he said. "You know me. The last 12 years I've just been focused on playing ball. If it presents itself, it presents itself. You handle that situation. Otherwise, I just try to stay in the moment, stay in the now and prepare for the game."
