Liberty Pavers - Steve Clark - Scam
AUTHOR: anonymous - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, October 06, 2012POSTED: Saturday, October 06, 2012
Pavers and Steve Clark. We filed a civil complaint to try to retrieve some of our money that he stole from us when he walked off the job and took the materials.
At that point we found out that they could not deliver the summons because the companys address was invalid (or he dodged the mailman at his house so he wouldnt have to appear).
We know that we will never resolve this for ourselves and have had the steps
completed by a reputable company who had to redo the little bit that he
completed and work around his inferior work which didnt pass inspection by our township.
We will continue to post online so that this man does not con anyone else. Mr. Clark posted a rebuttal which is a long rambling lie,basically.The basic facts are that he didnt finish the job, and walked away with our materials. Our
only response is that hopefully our post on various websites for consumers will make people think twice when they look into this company. There are plenty of legitimate, reputable companies out there, but this is NOT one of them. He will bid a really low price which might make it enticing.
I can only say that this taught us a strong message about Craigs list, since that is where we found him. He floods Craigs list with advertisements EVERYDAY for his company which we should have seen as a desperate measure to get business.
Ask yourself, is it worth taking a chance on Liberty Pavers when you can be sure to get quality work with another company?
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

When starting Mr. & Mrs Gee's job I did everything I could to accommodate their budget including giving them a discount. The first check I received upon taking it to the bank was handed back to me due to insufficient funds. After the problem was rectified I went ahead and started the job. I did everything I could do to give them the project they wanted. I purchased numerous colors and style's of bricks to accommodate what it was that they were looking for, and nothing seemed to satisfy them. After a week of working hard I approached them for the contracted payment at 75 % complete to finish the job in which their attitude changed completely. Not only did their attitude change, but they became very combative to the point where Mr. Gee felt it was necessary to come outside and apologize for the comments he had made to me.
Upon being home on Saturday I received a call from Mr. Gee stating that the bricks they selected and I had purchased they no longer wanted, and he felt that it would be necessary for his wife to accompany me to the brick yard and so I agreed.
Monday starting my work day and not being able to move forward I knocked on the door to see when it would be convenient for Mrs. Gee to accompany me to the brick yard, and at that point she stated that she did not want to go. So now stuck between the two of them I called Mr. Gee and I got no response and was stuck not knowing what material to work with and therefore nothing to do. Mrs. Gee then left and so I proceeded to pack up and leave.
Later on that night I gave Mr. Gee a call to see if we could get back on track, and he explained to me that he did not want me back on the jobsite and that he was finished with the project. At this point I did not understand what happen or what the hold up was. I had done everything I could to fix whatever the problem may have been. I did not take any funds with any ulterior motives. I wanted to provide them with quality work in which I was not given the opportunity to do so. I did not profit for this job in any way. The money that was provided was accounted for the labor and materials provided. I also have pictures to show what the job looked like before and after. I have never had a bad review in my whole career.
The following Saturday I contacted Mr. Gee after everything that went on I was willing to complete the project. At that time he stated that he wanted to go no further with the project and we ended our contact.

I had the sugery in June of 2006 and immediately developed a hematoma at the surgical site and 2 or more DVTs in the left leg. I was told that followup surgery was necessary to repair the hematoma. Before followup surgery however, Cape Coral Hospital and SWFNA inserted a filter in my vena cava to catch any breakaway DVDs during surgery.
After the second surgery, I was weak and in a lot of pain. Numerous MRIs indicated an infection had set up residence in my spine. My surgeon dismissed the radiologists' assessment and said that my pain was caused by inflamation and sent me home. Three weeks later I was rushed back to hospital and put on massive doses of anti-biotics. I was severly septic.
Dr. Correnti's refusal to recognize that I may have contracted an infection during my first stay in the hospital left me permanently disabled and almost cost me my life.
I fired SWFNA and hired a new team of doctors who saved my life. I stayed in the hospital for four months and went through two months of physical therapy.
You may be wondering if I sued SWFNA, Dr. Correnti and Cape Coral Hospital.
The answer is no..
Cape Coral Hospital is protected under Florida's sovereign immunity laws and Dr. Correnti has no malpractice insurance. Lawyers told that in any other state I would have had a good case, but not in Florida. Thank you Jeb Bush.
I lost my ability to walk unaided, my job and my house. My medical bills exceeded $400,000.00.
Stay away from SWFNA and don't have surgery in a county hospital!!

I can't believe that a state included in the United States of America is exempt from malpractice laws. But anywhere a Bush is you can bet you will be treated as a sub human. Bet Texas allows doctors to mangle patients as well.
Sorry to hear of your situation. I hope you have applied for Disability Benefits.
Good luck with everything. Contact Barack Obama and let him know what has happened to you as an American. Most likely he will use your story to push his Healthcare Reform thru.

They want "professional losers", not "leaders". When I ask who our leaders are and who is gonna carry us next week, I cant get an answer. We want to prop up our unheralded guys when we win, but aint asking them to carry the load, only to show up. That isnt leadership at all. Thats likeability.

National Trust releases 50 outdoor activities every child must experience
- From: news.com.au
- May 02, 2013
- These are the best things to do outside
- Which ones have you done?
- More kids activity ideas from Kidspot
FROM rolling down hills to birdwatching, these are the 50 activities every child should do before they turn 11 3/4. How many did you grow up doing?
More than four in five adults say their children spend less time playing outside than they did at their age, according to research by the UK's National Trust.
So, in an effort to entice youngsters away from their TV screens, the charity asked children to name their favourite outdoor activities. As a result, 15 fresh ideas - including running barefoot in the grass, star-gazing and exploring a cave - have been added to last year's list of '50 things to do before you're 11 3/4'.
The initiative followed a study that found if children do not form a connection with the great outdoors before they are 12, they are far less likely to later in life.
"In Australia, we are so lucky to have so many opportunities to get outside that are right on our doorstep" says Kidspot's mum of three Ella Walsh. "My family are so fortunate to live in an area where we are close to the beach as well as big open spaces where my kids can happily play for hours. They have grown up clambering over rocks, trawling for shells, and hunting for crabs. They learnt to ride their bikes on the coastal walkways and to kick a ball in the parks near our home."
Almost a third of the 1,700 youngsters who took part in the research said going on a long bike ride was their favourite outdoor pursuit.
Interestingly, another popular addition was bird watching, with one in ten children listing it in their top three outdoor activities.
"Star gazing is a great one as well," Margaret Rafferty from Kidspot's Parent Exchange told news.com.au. "Last December I got my nine-year-old up at 1am so we could go and look at the Geminids meteor shower. It was such a special experience."
And while it's puzzling to some, Kidspot's Ruth Devine loves the inclusion of conkers on the list. "Playing conkers was a rite of passage in our house growing up," she said. "We'd spend hours baking them in the oven or soaking them on vinegar to harden. Now I love doing this with my own kids. Gathering conkers is a favourite way to spend a blustery autumn day. And as for playing Pooh sticks, I cannot walk across a bridge without having a go and nor can my kids."
Here's the list - what are your favourites?
1. Climb a tree
2. Roll down a really big hill
3. Camp out in the wild
4. Build a den
5. Skim a stone
6. Run around in the rain
7. Fly a kite
8. Catch a fish with a net
9. Eat an apple straight from a tree
10. Play conkers (a game played using the seeds of horse-chestnut trees)
11. Go on a really long bike ride
12. Make a trail with sticks
13. Make a mud pie
14. Dam a stream
15. Play in the snow
16. Make a daisy chain
17. Set up a snail race
18. Create some wild art
19. Play Pooh sticks (A game played in Winnie the Pooh, where you drop a stick off the upstream side of a bridge to see whose comes out first downstream)
20. Jump over waves
21. Pick blackberries growing in the wild
22. Explore inside a tree
23. Visit a farm
24. Go on a walk barefoot
25. Make a grass trumpet
26. Hunt for fossils and bones
27. Go star gazing
28. Climb a huge hill
29. Explore a cave
30. Hold a scary beast
31. Hunt for bugs
32. Find some frogspawn
33. Catch a falling leaf
34. Track wild animals
35. Discover what's in a pond
36. Make a home for a wild animal
37. Check out the crazy creatures in a rock pool
38. Bring up a butterfly
39. Catch a crab
40. Go on a nature walk at night
41. Plant it, grow it, eat it
42. Go swimming in the sea
43. Build a raft

Fern Hill
by Dylan Thomas
Stanza 6 Summary
Get out the microscope, because we're going through this poem line-by-line.
Lines 46-48
Nothing I cared, in the lamb white days, that time would take me
Up to the swallow thronged loft by the shadow of my hand
In the moon that is always rising,
- The speaker tells us that back then, when he was young and easy, he just didn't care that time was going to swoop in and take it all away.
- At some point in his youth, apparently, time came along and took him up to the barn loft, which was filled with swallows.
- And time led him "by the shadow of [his] hand." Now there's an image.
- Earlier in the poem, everything was bright and gleaming and golden, but here, we have an image of a shadow of the speaker's hand. Things are getting darker, fast. That growing dark highlights the contrast from his earlier, "lamb white" days.
- It's also highlighted in the fact that it's no longer the sun shining down on all this—it's "the moon that is always rising." And the fact that that moon is always rising would seem to suggest that this coming night, this falling from grace, thanks to time, is going to last a long, long while.
Lines 49-50
Nor that riding to sleep
I should hear him fly with the high fields
- The speaker tells us that he also didn't care that as he slept as a young'un, time was flying with the high fields.
- It sure sounds like time is pulling a fast one on the speaker. Just when he thought everything was perfect and going to last forever, time heads out and takes the "high fields" with him.
- The tone has shifted considerably here. We've said adios to the fantasy of endless youth, and the landscape is folding up and heading out.
- And not only that, but the speaker says he didn't even notice everything on its way out—he was too busy not caring. Ah, to get those days back.
Lines 51-54
And wake to the farm forever fled from the childless land.
Oh as I was young and easy in the mercy of his means,
Time held me green and dying
Though I sang in my chains like the sea.
- Talk about a mood shift. The beauty that's been established in the previous five stanzas has suddenly and sorrowfully disappeared.
- When the speaker wakes this time, instead of waking up to "the farm, like a wanderer white / With the dew," the farm has "forever fled from the childless land." The kids are gone and the field has picked up stakes and moved on. Sorry y'all, show's over.
- Line 52 begins with "Oh." And that one little syllable makes all the difference in the world. With that sad little "Oh," the speaker conveys his wistfulness and regret, remembering bygone days that are long gone. His nostalgia really shines through, all in that one word.
- Here, we get the real truth about all those young, easy days. The speaker only had them because he was at the "mercy" of time's "means."
- But it turns out that the whole time he was young and "green," he was also "dying." Ain't that the truth? We mean, if you want to get pessimistic about it, you could say that the moment we're born, we're on the long march to death. It's just that when we're young and carefree, we don't really think about it.
- Suddenly, the color green—once associated with growth and vitality—is associated with death, because the entire time the speaker was young and green, he was "in chains." And he was singing in them because he simply didn't know any better. Ah, the follies of youth.
- Finally, the last word of the poem is "sea." The speaker, as a youngster, sang in his chains like the sea. This either means that the sea sings, or the sea sings in chains; there's a bit of ambiguity here.
- Why the sea? So far, the poem's been all about the land, and suddenly the sea's singing. What gives? Your guess is as good as ours, so Shmoop amongst yourselves.

Capture the Knowledge Effect in your portfolio
Gavekal Knowledge Leaders Products
Gavekal Knowledge Leaders Strategy
The Gavekal Knowledge Leaders Strategy seeks to transform the Knowledge Effect into portfolio alpha. The strategy identifies Knowledge Leaders, or highly innovative companies, through a proprietary process that measures a company's investment in its future growth. Knowledge Leaders possess deep reservoirs of intangible capital as a result of their history of investing in knowledge-intensive activities like R&D, brand development and employee education. Our proprietary model adjusts a company's financial history to capitalize these investments – reversing the conservative accounting rule that renders a company's innovation activities invisible in the stock market – and reveals the companies with the greatest knowledge intensity. The companies that pass our quantitative Knowledge Leaders screen comprise the Gavekal Knowledge Leaders Indexes, the first indexes designed to capture the Knowledge Effect. We look for the best opportunities among Knowledge Leaders for investment by our actively managed products.
It's always a good time to improve the quality of your portfolio.

With the addition of Chris Paul to accompany the talents of All-Star forward Blake Griffin, fans of the Los Angeles Clippers have reason to be excited about the team for arguably the first time in franchise history.
But while the Clippers will be a much improved team this season and will likely be treating fans to playoffs games for the first time since 2006, the team still has questions surrounding them heading into the 2011-12 season.
Here are four questions facing the new and improved Clippers.

I signed up for NET DETECTIVE, they made it sound so easy for only $29.95 you could find anyone. It took minutes to take my money, immediately they wanted more money.
For the $29.95 I received nothing, no information, only information on how to spend more money. I decided it wasn't worth it, so I emailed for a refund. Received a email back stating I had to fill out a form and wait 90 days for a refund. I did it but said why does it take 2 minutes to take my money and 90 days to get back. That is just there policy I was told. It is almost 90 days still waiting for a refund.

Product Review: Cuisinart Green Gourmet Skillet
We use a non-stick pan primarily for eggs. A non-stick coating is not ideal for getting a sear on meat or browning ingredients. But we've noticed that this one isn't bad. You won't get a crusty, brown fond on the bottom of the pan that you can deglaze as with a stainless skillet. In fact, this thing is so slippery that we frequently have ingredients careening over the sides while we stir. But when sautéeing leeks for the frittata above, they definitely got good color and developed a little crust.
The pan works well in the oven. The frittata slipped out effortlessly, and we've also made a few rounds of eggs and omelettes that have cooked perfectly. It's pleasantly heavy and has a nice, comfortable handle. The only thing we can't attest to is the longevity of its coating, as we've only had it for a month. But so far, we're big fans.
You can find these pans at varying prices. Here are a few resources, with prices for a 10-inch skillet:
• Amazon, $36.96
• Chefs Catalog, $49.95
• Bed, Bath, & Beyond, $49.99

UNDP supports the general personnel council launch E-Government platform
Ramallah – A new information portal which will improve the efficiency of the Palestinian civil service and allow online recruitment was launched today by the General Personnel Council (GPC), in cooperation with the United Nations Development Programme.
The General Personnel Council portal will allow civil servants, 85,000 people, to access their own personal information, apply for jobs, interact with other government institutions and increase transparency of human resource transactions within the government. The portal is part of the first phase of the Human Resources Management Information System which will revolutionize the way in which information is held within the Palestinian Authority on civil service, including personal data and salary information.
The modernization and computerization of civil service and the institutions of the Palestinian Authority is a vital part of the state-building process as it forms an important part of the egovernment policy. "Increasing the use of information technology is a key factor in the programme of the government, Ending the Occupation: Creating the State. These small steps in increased efficiency contribute to the framework of the Palestinian state we are working to build," said Dr. Hussein Al Araj, acting head of the General Personnel Council.
UNDP's Capacity Development Initiative (CDI) supports the General Personnel Council in formulating and developing human resource management policy, systems and procedures that are in line with international standards and best practices. The portal is an important part of the CDI's support to administrative reform.
Speaking at the launch which is part of the Expotech information technology conference in Ramallah, Timothy Rothermel, Special Representative of UNDP said: "We are very pleased with the development of this portal. It will further increase the efficiency of the Palestinian civil service and ultimately lead to the better provision of services to the Palestinian people". He added "By supporting such initiatives, UNDP is manifesting its role in state building, not only in the occupied Palestinian territory but all over the world."
The ceremony, which took place on November 2nd, 2010 at the Ramallah Movenpick hotel, was attended by Dr. Hussein Al Araj, acting head of the General Personnel Council, Dr. Mashhour Abu Daka, Minister of Telecommunications and Information Technology, and Mr. Timothy Rothermel, UNDP Special Representative of the Administrator.

My family and I recently bought a house . I contacted Alex Winters at Budget Van Lines to arrange transport of our household goods from North Carolina to Ohio. He was apparently a broker who booked Movers USA to transport our shipment. Alex told me that the cost would be twenty six hundred dollars and sent me a binding estimate stating this as well. I was informed that the movers needed a seventy two hour window for pickup so we agreed on June 30, 2007 July 3, 2007. There was no communication from Movers USA until the evening of July 2, 2007 when Leron called and said that his drivers would be at my residence between noon and 5 p.m. the following day. The next morning the driver called around nine a.m. and said that he would be there in about an hour and a half twenty six minutes later they were at my door.
The original estimate was for 7000 lbs/ 1000 cubic square feet. Upon arriving the driver said that we had too much furniture for the original estimate and he could not do it for the agreed upon price. The new estimation to take everything was over eight thousand dollars. This did not sit well with me at all. We finally came to the agreement that the movers would take as much of the big stuff as they could and still stay within the original 2700 dollar estimate plus 300 dollars for furniture pads, which were supposed to be included.
There is plenty of room at the pickup point for a tractor trailer in the driveway and from the door to the point where they parked was less than fifty feet. I have recently learned that the movers charged me for a long distance walking fee which according to the contract should only be charged if they have to walk more than seventy five feet. I had to disassemble my refrigerator and disconnect the hoses from my washer and dryer as well as move them out of the laundry room. I also had to move the refrigerator from the kitchen to the door of the den because one of the movers argued continuously that it could not be done and we would have to leave it.
The only paperwork that I received was the inventory list and I still have a copy of the binding estimate from my email.
I paid $629.50 and $150.00 on June 27th , the day I arranged the move with Alex Winters. The day of the pickup I paid fifteen hundred dollars to the driver by certified check. Upon arriving at our house the driver told me that we had a lot more furniture than originally estimated so he told me that the new amount would be over eight thousand dollars. I told him that we did not have that much money. He agreed to move all of the big items and a few boxes and stay within the original estimate and he had me write a note on the back of his inventory sheet stating that they had done exactly what I asked by staying within the orginal estimate.
The driver told me that my furniture would be at my new home in seven to ten business days. Two days later I received a call saying that they would deliver my furniture the evening of Friday July 5th or the morning of Saturday July 6th. He did not arrive until six p.m. on Saturday evening.
When we bought the house I asked the real estate agent if a tractor trailer could get to my door, she assured me that others had done it and it would be no problem. I was aware of the fact that other arrangements would have to be made for the delivery if the tractor trailer could not get to my house. The driver made it within half a block of my house, jumped out of the truck with a can of beer in one hand and a cigarette in the other, yelling and throwing his hands in the air saying no more, no more I go no further this is bull sh__. I go no further you liar. Then he continued to curse and yell for about a minute and a half. I told him that I lived around the next corner, five houses down, which he could see the corner of my street from where he was sitting. By now my neighbors were outside and very concerned about what was going on. My two year old daughter and three month old granddaughter were screaming and crying. The two year old said that she was scared. Also in my van were my mother, my sixteen year old daughter and my nineteen year old daughter who is pregnant. The driver informed me that I would have to pay fifteen hundred dollars for another crew to come out and deliver my furniture from where he sat to my doorstep plus for the shuttle that they would provide, long distance fees and a thousand dollars an hour for the crew. I told him that I would not pay the additional fees and that if he had been here within the time that Leron said that I could have gotten a rental truck and my brother along with a couple of his friends could have taken it from where he was to my door. None of the truck rental facilities in our town are open on Saturday evening and would not reopen until Monday. The driver said no I will not wait that long. He backed the truck out of our subdivision while I was trying to calm my daughter and call the office for Movers USA so I lost track of him.
I drove into town and found two Sheriff's deputy's Wilson and Chapman and told them what had happened. They went in opposite directions looking for the driver because he was drinking and driving a tractor trailer.
Monday morning I called the office to speak with Leron. He informed me that in order to get my furniture I would have to do one of two things. I could pay all of the fees that the driver mentioned plus a fee for them to get a crew from Maryland to Chesapeake, Ohio or I would have to pay him $1766.00 and sign a waiver stating that I release Movers USA from all liability for damages done to my property and transport it myself. When our discussion became heated he had slipped and told me that my furniture was being stored in Kentucky but that he would not tell me where until I met the above demands.
I called my insurance company and they said that this sounds like extortion but they can not pay me for the loss of ALL of my furniture and appliances unless the property is recovered or the police are willing to state that it is stolen in a report. If I sign the release my insurance company will not reimburse me for any damages and we incur all of the cost for replacement or repairs.
In the last few days I have done a lot of research on the internet and found out that this scam has been pulled numerous times across the United States. When I told the owner I would see him in court he laughed and said good luck, now I understand why.
A Lawrence County Sheriff's deputy found out that the furniture was in Grayson Kentucky so I went there and spoke with one of the officers and the Chief of Police. The chief made a couple of calls and found out that my furniture is being stored in a facility owned by Richard Burton. He told them that the furniture is stolen and asked them to put an extra lock on the door in case they tried to come back and move it before I could get some help with this mess.
The Chief's name is Keith Hill his office number is 606-474-4308, cell number is 606-255-0621. The officer's name is John Fizgerald and his number is 606-615-1478.
Please help me get my furniture back from these criminals. I have no problem with paying the balance of the original estimate and the storage fee but I will not meet the rest of the financial demands or release them from liability for damages.
My husband, a veteran of twelve years, has been working as a contractor in Iraq so that we could afford to buy our first home and I have been in our home with my five children and my three month old granddaughter since July 4, 2007. I was forced to buy air mattresses, a cheap sofa, pots and pans, towels and rent a washer and dryer.
We have nothing and my children are due to start school in a new place where I need to produce shot records, birth certificates etc. and all of these things are being held hostage along with our household goods.

No, it's just Pachauri who was feeling too hot
Andrew Bolt –, Sunday, January, 31, 2010, (7:01pm)
Rajendra Pachauri has had other things on his mind, which may help explain why he's allowed the IPCC under his leadership to become mired in allegations of fraud, exaggeration, deceit and cherry-picking.
You see, Pachauri has been thinking a lot about sex, and has even written a lot about it in his new steamy novel:
In breathless prose that risks making Dr Pachauri, who will be 70 this year, a laughing stock among the serious, high-minded scientists and world leaders with whom he mixes, he details sexual encounter after sexual encounter.
The book, which makes reference to the Kama Sutra, starts promisingly enough as it tells the story of a climate expert with a lament for the denuded mountain slopes of Nainital, in northern India, where deforestation by the timber mafia and politicians has "endangered the fragile ecosystem".
But talk of "denuding" is a clue of what is to come.
By page 16, Sanjay is ready for his first liaison with May in a hotel room in Nainital.

Child advises IPCC
Andrew Bolt –, Sunday, January, 31, 2010, (2:02pm)
Latest IPCC shock. Bakers Delight reveals that one of this discredited UN body's sources is just some primary school kid in Australia.
Yet Kevin Rudd would actually approve. Honest to God, just last month in his speech at Copenhagen he told IPCC to take the advice of a six-year-old:
Before I left Australia, I was presented with a book of handwritten letters from a group of 6 year olds.
One of the letters is from Gracie. Gracie is six - "Hi" she wrote. "My name is Gracie. How old are you." Gracie continues "I am writing to you because I want you all to be strong in Copenhagen… Please listen to us as it is our future." I fear that at this conference, we are on the verge of letting little Gracie down.

Now even the BBC becomes more sceptical
Andrew Bolt –, Sunday, January, 31, 2010, (1:56pm)
Yes, it really is crumbling. Now even the BBC's evironment reporter gives the IPCC a whacking, and reports on the latest sceptical research. Lots of caveats, of course, but hear Roger Harrabin mark this turning point here.
BBC environment correspondent Richard Black discusses the huge change in (intellectual) climate after Climategate, the Copenhagen farce and the IPCC scandals:
Before Copenhagen, most of the building blocks appeared to be in place for some kind of global, negotiated, and possibly even effective deal - if not in Copenhagen itself, then within a further year.
Would anyone now make that assessment?..
Depending on your views on man-made global warming, you might find the mood-shift encouraging or disappointing. But it's hard to argue, I think, that it isn't significant - perhaps the most significant change in international environmental governance since the Rio Earth Summit.
I appreciate this new caustious tone in the BBC reporting, but I'd have admired it much more back when the battle had to be won.

A monster too big for Wong's leash

IPCC's latest source: what some blokes told some green student
Andrew Bolt –, Sunday, January, 31, 2010, (10:53am)
Can the IPCC seem more ridiculous and agenda-driven? Now comes the most disgraceful example of its cherry-picking:
The United Nations' expert panel on climate change based claims about ice disappearing from the world's mountain tops on a student's dissertation and an article in a mountaineering magazine.
In its most recent report, it stated that observed reductions in mountain ice in the Andes, Alps and Africa was being caused by global warming, citing two papers as the source of the information.
However, it can be revealed that one of the sources quoted was a feature article published in a popular magazine for climbers which was based on anecdotal evidence from mountaineers about the changes they were witnessing on the mountainsides around them.
The other was a dissertation written by a geography student, studying for the equivalent of a master's degree, at the University of Berne in Switzerland that quoted interviews with mountain guides in the Alps… The dissertation paper, written by professional mountain guide and climate change campaigner Dario-Andri Schworer...
Even IPCC warmists are appalled:
Professor Richard Tol, one of the report's authors who is based at the Economic and Social Research Institute in Dublin, Ireland, said: "These are essentially a collection of anecdotes.
"Why did they do this? It is quite astounding..."
Why did IPCC authors and their profiteering boss lie, exaggerate, cover-up, censor and accept any unchecked anecdotes from activists that suited their agenda? Hmm, beats me.
And which fool relied on the word of this corrupted body?
PM KEVIN RUDD: Well, I just look at what the scientists say. There's a group of scientists called the International Panel on Climate Change - 4000 of them. Guys in white coats who run around and don't have a sense of humour. They just measure things…
I stand by what the International Panel of Climate Change scientists have had to say.

The fall of the warming wall
Andrew Bolt –, Sunday, January, 31, 2010, (10:30am)
Biogeographer Professor Philip Stott on the collapse of the global warming scare:
It is like watching the Berlin Wall being torn down, concrete slab by concrete slab, brick by brick, with cracks appearing and widening daily on every face - political, economic, and scientific. Likewise, the bloggers have been swift to cover the crumbling edifice with colourful graffiti, sometimes bitter, at others caustic and witty…
And, as ever, capitalism has read the runes, with carbon-trading posts quietly being shed, 'Green' jobs sidelined, and even big insurance companies starting to hedge their own bets against the future of the Global Warming Grand Narrative. These rats are leaving the sinking ship far faster than any politician, many of whom are going to be abandoned, left, still clinging to the masts, as the Good Ship 'Global Warming' founders on titanic icebergs in the raging oceans of doubt and delusion.
And what can one say about 'the science'? 'The 'science' is already paying dearly for its abuse of freedom of information, for unacceptable cronyism, for unwonted arrogance, and for the disgraceful misuse of data at every level, from temperature measurements to glaciers to the Amazon rain forest. What is worse, the usurping of the scientific method, and of justified scientific scepticism, by political policies and political propaganda could well damage science sensu lato - never mind just climate science - in the public eye for decades.
Stott says it's no surprise that the IPCC's faked scares about India feature strongly in the growing scandal. He quotes Dr. Robert Bradnock, a world authority on the sub-continent and founder-editor of the Ashgate Studies in Development Geography:
I know that many of the claims about the impact of 'global warming' in Bangladesh, for example, are completely unfounded. There is no evidence that flooding has increased at all in recent years. Drought and excessive rainfall are the nature of the monsoon system. Agricultural production, far from being decimated by worsening floods over the last twenty years, has nearly doubled. In the early 1990s, Houghton published a map of the purported effects of sea-level rise on Bangladesh. Coming from a Fellow of the Royal Society, former Head of the Met Office and Chair of the IPCC, this was widely accepted, and frequently reproduced. Yet, it shows no understanding of the complex processes that form the Bengal delta, and it is seriously misleading. Moreover, despite the repeated claims of the World Wide Fund, Greenpeace, and, sadly, Christian Aid, the melting of the Himalayan glaciers is of completely marginal significance to the farmers of the plains in China, India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. One could go on!
And, on cue, in India, Open magazine publishes this front-page feature:
And, indeed, it turns out the IPCC was wrong not only about the speed of melting of the Himalayan glaciers, but about the cause, too:
Glaciers are here to stay in the Himalayas. Studies conducted by glaciologists across the Himalayan region in Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand have shown that global warming has little to do with their melting.
The conclusion was drawn by glaciologists after studying the behaviour of 35 Himalayan glaciers. The Mentossa glacier in Miyar valley of Lahaul-Spiti in Himachal Pradesh has, in fact, expanded in the last few years while there is no change in the Kangriz glacier in Zanskar valley of J&K since 1913.
Glaciologists, claiming that global warming and melting of glaciers have no relation with each other, say each glacier is behaving in a different manner. Had global warming been responsible, then all of them would have behaved in a similar manner, they claimed.
The prediction that glaciers would melt by 2035 by Professor Syed Iqbal Hasnain may have landed the Inter Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) chairman R K Pachauri in a tight spot, but data collected by glaciologits across the Himalayan region shows that such claims do not hold water, and the major rivers orginating from the Himalayas would continue to flow for the years to come as the glaciers are going to stay…
A comparison of photographs of glaciers available from 1907 shows that after 1998, glaciers have not changed much...

Or measure the cracking of the wall by the torrent of books now being published attacking the warming scam. Here are just some of the more interesting (with links to Amazon ), including three by Australian academics:

Working beautifully
Andrew Bolt –, Sunday, January, 31, 2010, (9:53am)
And she says it like it's a bad thing:
PARENTS rocked by the My School website have already begun pulling their children out of poorly performing schools.
At the same time, principals from Sydney schools that rate highly on the Federal Government website have received dozens of calls from parents wanting to transfer their children…
Public School Principals Forum chairperson Cheryl McBride said parents were already removing their children from schools that recorded poor numeracy and literacy results.
Ask those parents if they are grateful or not to have this information. Ask the principals of failing schools if they now feel under pressure.
I think the answers will justify the reform.

Shock: warming not blamed
Andrew Bolt –, Sunday, January, 31, 2010, (6:54am)
Is this another sign of the changing climate - an acknowledgement of a factor that isn't the previously preferred "global warming"?
Melbourne recorded its equal warmest overnight temperature, 30.6 degrees, on January 12. The previous time the city was that hot overnight was February 1, 1902.
A meteorologist at the bureau, Harvey Stern, said that Melbourne suffered from a heat island effect, in which a city is warmer than the surrounding countryside.
This was the case especially at night, because of heat stored in bricks and concrete and trapped between close-packed buildings…
The rest of the state was generally cooler and drier than Melbourne.
Thank you, Mr Stern.
Oh, and for the warming worriers:
the long-range forecast from the Bureau of Meteorology is tipping that February through to April should be cooler than average...
A perfect example of the most distinctive characteristic of Michelle Grattan's commentatary - to call politics like it was a football game, without asking whether this particular game even makes any sense:
The warming earth and Australia's ageing and expanding population are forcing the policy-makers to lift their eyes beyond the short term. Admittedly, things change so quickly that trends can alter, and what we think now about some issues could be at odds with how people view them 40 years on. Even so, the time trips provide a few salutary checks on the short-termism for which politicians are notorious.
No mention of Climategate or the countless other scandals and unravellings. No heeding of the very caveat Grattan formally offers that - that even a "trend" to panic about climatic doom in 2050 years could "alter" so that "what we now think about some issues could be at odds with how people view them 40 years on" - i.e., in 2050.
But if the global warming extremists Grattan has believed for so long are right, there is not the slightest possibility that people in 2050 will worry less about the global warming havoc we're told they will certainly see by that date. Which should force any commentator to ask: are those predictions actually false?
Or is Grattan's tortured formula actually a confession that she's become a sceptic, too, and is no longer sure at all the climate will have heated dangerously by 2050?

President Obama, who has sought to turn the bailouts given to some American car companies into a political advantage, has argued for months that the trade deals would benefit the Detroit auto industry.
"If Americans can buy Kias and Hyundais, I want to see folks in South
Korea driving Fords and Chevys," Obama has said frequently in recent stump speeches.
Mulally has widely been credited with turning around Ford's finances. The company was the only major U.S. automaker not to accept a bailout from the federal government during the 2008 economic meltdown.

AWARD-WINNER! Thai Acupressure Massage
Feet, Hands & Face for the Mat
Feet, Hands & Face for the Mat
WATCH PREVIEWLearn the techniques for providing a complete Thai acupressure massage for the feet, hands, and face; also a Thai reflexology balancing treatment for the feet and hands, all on a traditional Thai mat. Dr. Anthony James, CMT, DPM, ND, MDAM, SMOKH, the top instructor in the United States, walks you step by step through the procedures. With the massage, you can help balance energy, bring a nurturing awareness to the client, and enhance circulation, including arterial/venous and lymphatic. The Thai acupressure facial provides a nonsurgical face lift. The reflexology treatments likewise offer rejuvenating benefits from increased circulation. The treatments will help correct dehydration, edema, swelling of the joints, and lack of motion. The other benefit of reflexology is the hands and feet map to other parts of the body, so you also balance the organs, promote circulation, and balance the chakras and energy lines throughout with reflexology.

Testimonial: "I enjoyed the DVD's. They are very educational and informative." — Virginia S, New Jersey"LOVE these videos!! This is highly recommended for estheticians or anyone working in the spa industry. Easy to follow and has a ton of great information. Fantastic! Great to change up your facial menu. This is a great tutorial especially for beginners." Julie C, NC, USA"Highly recommended!! This is really helpful, easy to follow and a good opportunity to improve ourselves as an esthetician. I recommend it to all people working in spas and salons in all over the world." Gozde Sula, USA"As a massage therapist and esthetician I highly recommend this video. It is a great add-on for facials and very easy to follow." Clara E Arango, USA"This is highly recommended for Esthetician like me. Easy to incorporate with the facial menu. It is a great tutorial especially for beginners." Kate Tescon"I am a licensed esthetician and am always interested in updating my skills. I have bought videos from Aesthetic Video Source before and I have found them to be top notch in education. Thai Acupressure Massage: Hands, Feet and Face for the Mat is no exception. Dr Anthony James is not only incredibly well qualified (he wrote the first English Thai massage book back in 1984) but he is also an amazingly natural teacher. I am able to confidently apply what I have learned from this video already. Through out the video (over 2 1/2 hours long!) Dr James clearly explains what he is doing and why. The camera work is exceptional and it is so easy to follow along. The video begins with information about Thai massage and Dr. James's credentials. He then moves on to how to add this massage to your practice, then on to foot reflexology, then hand and then face. All three are interesting and easy to apply to an esthetics practice. The video ends with several extra methods such as hands free and chair massage. I really can't recommend this video any more highly. I had no knowledge of this type of massage before watching this video and now feel confident enough to incorporate this into my facial treatments. He has also piqued my interest in his technique and am thinking about taking some classes at his school." Barbie P, USA"This course was right up my alley! I am a Licensed massage therapist, certified reflexologist, Reiki master and sound vibrational healer (tuning forks) and I have my own business. This course is so comprehensive but yet so easy to follow! Dr. James teaches in a way that draws you in as if you are the client being worked on. This Thai Acupressure course is no small matter....everything was covered and explained in detail...very thorough and complete. Not like so many you can get that barely touch on the subject. Dr. James takes you all the way back and explains even the very simplest of things so this is a great course for even the beginner! When I had finished watching the video, I felt as if I had learned, comprehended and retained the same amount of material that I did in one of my five week modules in Massage Therapy school! Every aspect was covered from benefits to contraindications to even several suggestions on how to incorporate it into your business. I have so many plans for using this in my own business...it really enhances my practice. Thank you so much for this opportunity to grow! Never stop growing!" Angela Carothers, USA"Great resource. Provides details that can easily be incorporated into existing protocols or assist in creating new services and revenue potential. Thank you!" Denise Baich, USA"Love this video! I have been wanting to learn this technique and now I can use what I have to benefit all those that I work on. Thank you for a super video!" Elizabeth M Bran, USA"I'm a Certified Massage Therapist CMT I highly recommend it . Would definitely incorporate it to my massage sessions. A well detailed DVD. Enjoy!" A Arnold, USA"Great video. I've learned a lot from this video. I recommend it to anyone in the industry looking to polish their skills." Bonnie & Robert Davee, USA"Very helpful for new techniques. Worth the money spent!" Mindistic, USA

Credit Solutions Of Addison, Texas Roadkill on the job market! Addison, Texas
If this didn't happen to my neighbor, I would not be writing this letter. I lost my job back in 2001 with a major wireless telecommunications company and was unable to get a full-time position since then. I've had numerous contract work and freelance work to keep my family alive and in our home.
I had finally landed a full-time position but not in my field of expertise. Never-the-less it was a full-time job and I was going to have benefits at the end of my 90 days.
Credit Solutions recruiter found my resume on Monster and contacted me for an interview stating I had all the qualifications for a full-time positon they were seeking to fill. Before getting hired at the Car lot, I had gone to over 20 interviews that lasted over 2 hours each. I was burned out on interviews and told the recruiter in a polite manner - thanking her for contacting me about this position but didn't want to go on another interview with all the promises that were made to me prior. I just wanted to concentrate on making some money for my family.
I was contacted by the recruiter after being on my new full time car salesman position 4 days when I received my second voicemail from the internal recruiter at Credit Solutions stating her supervisor saw my resume and wanted to meet with me and discuss a position that he needs to fill.
I did not return that call! Another 3 days had gone by and yet another voice mail from the same recruiter. I did not return that call as well. Finally, on Friday the second week on my new job, she called and I answered. She said he supervisor was really bugging her to get me in to interview and told her to tell me that it would only be a short interview and that he was willing to make a job offer as soon as it was over. I said okay, I could meet with him on Monday.
I went in the interview and he was excited about me interviewing with him and as soon as he had completed my interview, he looked at me and said I will start you off at $5.00 less an hour than what you are asking and then he would put in the contract upon a 60 day trial period I would be put on full-time at the hourly rate I needed.
After being there 30 days, I had receive a review from an art director that was hired the same day I was. He had a list of things I needed to work on and also stated, I didn't follow the process on a couple of things. I looked at him with a puzzled look and reminded him my first day, I noticed there were no processes in place and I said I would have that completed within a couple of days. Both my supervisor and the manager that hired me originally stated, we don't have processes here at Credit Solutions. Our culture does not allow it.
On the 59th day of my trial period, I was called in not to discuss the major progress I had made in my position, but to tell me they are going in a different direction and would not need my services as of that moment. They told me someone would gather my personal belongings and bring them to the meeting room while I waited to be escorted off the premises.
What I am upset about and think it is inhuman the fact that they pursued me knowing I needed a full-time position. They used me for 60 days and without a care in the world, they said I no longer was working there.
Note: On the review list that they gave me on my 30th day, I excelled in every one of those catagories. I even spent money I didn't have to take classes to ensure I was giving them the results they needed. The whole time working there I was told the only way you would not be put on full-time is if you miss any days during your trial. I actually, put in almost 1-2 hours extra each day.
I think this job rip off happens more times than reported. I am angry that they took my only income away from me and my family.
I lost my full-time position with the car company and yes both my neighbor and I are back on the market.

Parks, Trails, and Open Space Replacement Levy
On August 6, 2013, King County voters approved the Parks, Trails, and Open Space Replacement Levy by more than 70 percent.
Parks Replacement Levy Informational Brochure (11x17 version, 4MB)
Parks Replacement Levy Informational Brochure (8.5x11 4-page version, 3.8MB)
The measure will generate an estimated $66 million per year from 2014 through 2019 through a CPI-indexed property tax levy lid lift of 18.77 cents per $1,000 of assessed value – an estimated $56 per year for the owner of a home valued at $300,000. It replaced two parks levies, the King County Parks Levy and the Open Space and Trails Levy, which expired at the end of 2013.

LaVawn Orr, 83 - May 21, 2008
LaVawn Johnson Orr, 83, of California, formerly of Gothenburg, died Sunday, May 4, 2008, at Thousand Oaks, CA.
Memorial services were held on Friday, May 9, at the Conejo Valley Community Church in Thousand Oaks.
Orr was born May 28, 1924, at Gothenburg to Leif and Sadie Johnson. She graduated from Gothenburg High School where she had been active in band and vocal music as well as school organizations.
She attended the University of Nebraska on a scholarship, working as secretary to the minister at the Methodist Student House on campus and serving as companion to a well-known dowager, Miss Laura Ryons.
While in Lincoln, she met Harold Orr, an Air Force pilot. On, and upon her graduation, she joined him in California where he was based. They were married in 1946 and settled near Los Angeles, CA. The couple participated in the young married couples' group at the Wilshire Methodist Church.
?Orr had lived a very active life, teaching school for five years prior to the birth of her two sons.
?After living in Northridge for 33 years, she and her husband retired to Sedona, AZ, in 1989, where she was active in the Flagstaff Symphony League and the Church of the Red Rocs and also helped form a new local chapter of PEO.
Orr became a fan of the Phoenix Suns and Diamondbacks and enjoyed the company of other retirees and neighbors, according to family members.
She and her husband moved back to California in August of 2007 to be closer to family members.
Orr was a member of the Euterpe Opera Club of Los Angeles, and was president of the Cal State Northridge Art Council. She was also an active member of a PEO chapter as well as the Northridge Methodist Church.
She was a devoted mother and made special efforts for extended family and guests, said family members.
Orr was preceded in death by: her parents, Leif and Sadie; her brothers—Paul, Wayne and Leif, Jr.
Survivors include: her husband of 61 years, Harold; her sons—Linsey (Joan) and Jon (Jean); two grandchildren—Vanessa and Ben; a sister, Marilyn McClellen.

network cards was different than what it should be.
So come to find out w/some research that the device that was on my computer was a realtek wireless mini pci 8180l card. But because it is sold as a centrino(R) it should have came with a intel(R)pro/wireless 2100 card mini pci. So I called up viscom to let them know what was going on & that I would like the card to get replaced W/the right one that should be in there.
The tech or techs that i spoke to within that month all gave different answers & excuses to
why it's in there, from "If it's working then what's wrong? to "It is the intel(R) pro/ wireless 2100 in there w/the wrong drivers" no
help from them even their supervisor said "there is nothing wrong with it so why fix it?" at least that is what the tech told me.
I gave intel(R)a call the first time they were not much help. Told me to try reinstalling new drivers. So I did & it did not work. Called again finally someone asked me what I wanted them to do so I told them all I want is my computer to have the right parts.
After that it took a while but I finally got a call from ECS they were very eager to talk to me & left messages twice within two days. Finally got a hold of me & tried to convince me to keep the card because it had additional features & saying that the computer was better with it. I don't know if it is or isn't.
All I knew is that I wanted it to have the right part or parts in it. If I would have kept it they said to just take off that centrino(R) sticker off because it was non-compliant & was not a centrino. BUT WAIT A
MINUTE DIDN'T I BUY A CENTRINO?. Well thats what the guy said on T.V. maybe it was just a fluke but I would suggest you check your laptop if it is a centrino(R)designated brand.
Just to make sure, I got mine fixed. It was a compromise though I could not get the modem integrated like before with the combo card so they did a quick fix & gave me a modem card to fit in the pcmcia slot in case I needed dial-up so if that's a big issue for you don't
do the swap. One thing after I called intel(R)
they were very prompt at replacing the parts & getting in contact w/me. BUT I WILL NEVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN!
