If they are using your account number tell the bank it is fraud. Demand the bank close your account NOW and open a new one. Work with the bank so that legitimate debits and deposits will go through the new account until you can update the necessary companies. Also ask the bank to investigate and refund all money the company has taken.
Hope this helps you out.

Death toll increases in Myanmar's Rakhine state
As human tragedy escalates in Myanmar's Rakhine state, 'Asian Tribune' publishes exclusive images depicting miseries of the Muslims- heart wrenching stories of human-beings in desperate and helpless situations are depicted in these images to stir the conscience of the humanity.
According to Myanmar's Rakhine state spokesman U Win Myaing, 67 people were killed instead of 112 in renewed sectarian riots in Myanmar's western Rakhine state over the past five days.
The UN has warned that Burma's reform programme could be put at risk by continued communal violence in the western state of Rakhine.
Latest reports reveled that the riot has spread to one more area of Pauktaw on Friday from the earlier six affected areas -- Myaebon, Mrauk U, Kyauk Phyu, Minbya, Yathedaung and Kyauktaw
It is unclear what prompted the latest clashes. The Rakhine Buddhists and Muslims, believed to be mainly Rohingya, blame each other for the violence.
Security forces struggled to stem Myanmar's worst communal unrest since clashes in June killed more than 80 people and displaced at least 75,000 in Rakhine State.
However, the situation remained calm on Friday after security was tightened, according to the local state government.
Preventive security measures were also taken in some areas where recurrence of riot is anticipated.
According to a latest death toll released by the Information Ministry, 67 people died and 95 others were injured in the renewed sectarian riots which occurred in the seven townships over the past five days as of Oct. 25 since Oct.21.
During the riot, 2,818 residential houses and 18 religious buildings were destroyed in arson fire in the seven townships, leaving a substantial number of people homeless.
Local authorities and security forces are making intensified efforts to keep the situation under control.
In Bangladesh, border officials said they believed several boats with Rohingyas on board were waiting to try to cross the river from Burma. One official said 52 Rohingyas had been sent back in the last few days.

I had provided my credit card and the $395 deposit was charged. After this, it was very difficult to reach LoanDepot by phone or email. A week or so afterwards, I did reach someone from LoanDepot who advised a "drive by" appraisal had already been
performed, and it had appraised at a ridiculously low amount. I was very familiar with the comps in my area, and this appraisal was not even close.
I placed several calls and emails to my contact who I eventually reached after a few days; he explained there had been an internal mistake and he had no idea why a drive by appraisal was performed. He was going to have the full appraisal ordered ASAP and someone would be in touch with me to set up a time. 1 week later no reply, I call LoanDepot again (shouldn't they be calling me to provide an update as I am their customer??), and they advise they have no control over when the
appraisers contact me. At this point I escalate to the supervisor who assures me he will be in touch with me the following morning. Next day, no call, so I need to chase the supervisor by email and voicemail. A couple days later, he returns my call and says a full appraisal did not apply for my loan!!!! This certainly conflicted with all previous discussions. I wrote him a summary of my experience and said that if I did not have my $395 refunded, I would take legal action and report them to the BBB. He returned my call and assured me an appraiser would be in touch within a few days. Once the appraiser did contact me to set up an appointment, the first available time they had was AFTER the lock in period expired, so my initial quote would no longer be valid. I had enough of LoanDepot at this point so I called the supervisor and asked for a refund. He said it would be refunded ASAP.
A few days later, still no refund to my credit card and he would not answer calls or reply to my emails (luckily I recorded our phone conversation where he agreed to refund the $395). At this point I called my credit card company and had them reverse the charge which they did. Still no word back from LoanDepot and its been several months.

"If he had received the regular flu vaccine, the family would be able to file a claim with the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program," said attorney Clifford Shoemaker. "But because it was the swine flu program, which falls under the same bill as terrorism … the family will get very little in compensation for what's happened to this child."
I had no idea that the swine flu program falls under terrorism. Interesting...
It is sad no one can be held reliable for this. Unfortunately most families do not know this information!
I also can't believe no one will be held accountable. I feel so bad for the kid.
Well the government can do just about anything in the name of protecting us from Terrorism and we can't do much about it. I had no idea Terrorist made H1N1. I feel sorry for this kid.

The Dragon Quest 3DS Games Are Heading To America
Well now here's some fan-fucking-tastic news for JRPG fans: the 3DS remakes of both Dragon Quest VII and Dragon Quest VIII are actually coming to North America next year.
Dragon Quest VIII—an excellent JRPG that was first released in 2004 on the PS2—is being re-released (with improvements, like an orchestral score) on the 3DS in 2015. It'll be out in Japan on August 27.
You'll Be Able To Play Dragon Quest VIII On iOS Soon
My old PlayStation 2 just became a casualty of apartment cleaning, so it's delightful to see Dragon Quest VIII—one of the PS2's best role-playing games—on the iTunes Store in New Zealand today.
Dragon Quest is coming to smartphones in a big way. Square Enix is bringing Dragon Quest I to Dragon Quest VIII to iOS and Android. Look forward for the onslaught to start this winter when Dragon Quest I is re-released in Japan. Subsequent sequels to follow. No word about a Western release.

Toddler play with pom poms!
Grabbing, pinching and poking at these little items are great for fine motor development!
Henry never got into the little things, he was always too busy and on the move. George gets into it a little bit more and loves to put objects in things. (Believe me, I find stuff in the weirdest places!)
Pom poms have become a favorite of his. Give him a container of some sort and a bunch of pom poms, and he's set!
We started with color sorting.
I didn't expect him to be able to do it (he's only 15 months!), but I did want to introduce to him that there are different colors.
I used a muffin tin and sorted the pom poms myself, as I did that I said the colors to help him recognize them.
George pulled the pom poms out of the tin and put them in, over and over.
I also used a Puffs container and cut slits in the lid to make a cross.
(I cut the tips of the opening to round them out, so they weren't so pointy and sharp.)
This has been an absolutely favorite.
George spends a lot of time exploring this concept.
Sticking the pom poms in.
Removing the lid and emptying them out. And repeat.
Pom poms tend to end up all over the place and I find them constantly, check out the splatter of pom poms behind George! (Maybe I should treat that as my own 'I Spy' game!)

American ready to take off for Cuba
Updated at 9:30 a.m. Friday: Revised to reflect full version published in Friday's editions of The Dallas Morning News.
By SHERYL JEAN and JAMES OSBORNE
Staff Writers
American Airlines and other U.S. carriers said Thursday they're ready and eager to start commercial passenger flights to Cuba as soon as it's possible.
U.S. and Cuban officials said they reached an agreement Wednesday — the day before the anniversary of detente between the two Cold War foes — to allow as many as 110 regular airline flights a day to the communist country.
The deal opens the door for U.S. airlines and the Cuban government to hash out the details, which could take months. It's not certain when the first flights will take off, but when they do, hundreds of thousands more U.S. tourists could flood the small island nation.
Cuba will probably allow the U.S. flights gradually to ensure it can handle the increased number of visitors.
This year, U.S. travel to Cuba has risen more than 50 percent, and the island has seen an even bigger influx from other countries, overwhelming the country's outdated tourist facilities. The airport in Cuba's capital, Havana, can barely accommodate current demand, and nearly all hotels are booked well into next year.
In the meantime, Fort Worth-based American, the world's largest airline, said it plans to file its application to fly regularly scheduled flights to Cuba after New Year's Day.
Other airlines, including Delta Air Lines, JetBlue Airways and United Airlines, also said they plan to offer regular passenger service to Cuba as soon as they gain government approval.
Dallas-based Southwest Airlines said it's "excited about the possibility of providing low-fare, high-quality service to Cuba," but its timeframe is probably further out.
Southwest has said before that it would like Cuba to be among its 50 new destinations (half launching by the end of 2017) that CEO Gary Kelly announced last spring.
"It's still in the mix of 50," said Southwest spokesman Brad Hawkins. The decision is based on "timing and when it makes the most sense for us to enter a market. Obviously, the Cuba equation changes significantly once this preliminary agreement is signed."
The deal reached Wednesday night allows for 20 routes a day to Havana and 10 to each of Cuba's other nine major airports, the State Department said. However, travel to Cuba is still restricted to 12 categories, such as family visits, humanitarian projects and research trips.
Americans and Cubans now must take charter flights, which are complicated to book, don't typically have online portals and often force travelers to email documents and payment information to agents.
American's vice president for regulatory affairs, Howard Kass, declined to specify how many of those 110 routes the airline would seek. But he said the carrier, already the largest charter operator to Cuba among the major airlines, plans to fly commercially out of Miami and other unspecified American hubs.
American has been flying to Cuba from the U.S. since 1991 via charter flights on Boeing 737 jets. It flies 23 charter flights a week from Los Angeles, Miami and Tampa, Fla., to five Cuban destinations: Camagüey, Cienfuegos, Havana, Holguin and Santa Clara.
"We've seen an increase in traffic to Cuba since the president changed the restrictions," Kass said Thursday in a media conference call. "Now, with commercial flights, that will put it on more people's radar."
New York-based JetBlue, which has operated charter flights to Cuba since 2011, also has seen an uptick in interest.
"Interest in Cuba has reached levels not seen for a generation," Scott Laurence, JetBlue's senior vice president of airline planning, said in a statement. The carrier flies to Havana and Santa Clara from New York, Tampa and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood, Fla.
JetBlue said it will "review the terms of the agreement" to see the number of flight frequencies available and figure out how it can expand its service to Cuba, Laurence said.
On Dec. 17, 2014, President Barack Obama eased travel to Cuba as part of a plan to normalize relations with the nation. His decision has prompted strong criticism from Republicans — and some Democrats — that he's aiding the repressive government of Cuban President Raúl Castro.
Obama's plans have been slow to come to fruition. But this week marks progress: In addition to the new aviation deal, the U.S. and Cuba agreed to direct postal service for the first time in 50 years.
Obama on Thursday renewed his call for Congress to lift the United States' longtime trade embargo against Cuba.
"We are advancing our shared interests and working together on complex issues that for too long defined — and divided — us," he said in a statement Thursday.

I only requested compensation to replace a simple wheel of about $100. value. Their denial letter indicates that, "This decision was not an easy one, as we anticipated your disappointment." Apparently denying a valid claim is an easy decision for such a huge corporation. They also had the gall to ask for my understanding and hope that I will consider giving them another opportunity to serve my tire and automotive needs in the future. I won't be giving them the opportunity to almost cause a serious accident and then to deny all responsibility. Isn't this exactly what Firestone did for years until the state and federal governments finally took them court to force them to accept their responsibility?
I feel that they ripped me off by not accepting any responsibility for causing damage to my vehicle and only by the grace of God we averted a possible serious accident.

Hiddink says wait and see regarding John Terry
Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink admits he cannot call which way John Terry's contract situation will go but remains hopeful of a positive outcome.
Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink admits he cannot call which way John Terry's contract situation will go but remains hopeful of a positive outcome.
Chelsea interim boss Guus Hiddink believes John Terry can play on at the highest level but was unable to clarify if the captain has played his final game for the Blues.
Interim boss Guus Hiddink has admitted Chelsea face a period of uncertainty in the likely absence of Champions League football next season after the defeat to Paris St Germain.
Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink has reminded Eden Hazard of his priorities, asking the midfielder to focus on improving his form and fitness rather than contemplating a potential move at the end of the season.
Chelsea will on Monday travel to Paris for their Champions League last-16 first leg with confidence restored by interim boss Guus Hiddink and an emphatic defeat of Newcastle.
Unsettled Chelsea defender Gary Cahill has held "positive" talks with interim manager Guus Hiddink about his future and said he was keen to stay at the club.
Chelsea interim boss Guus Hiddink expects John Terry to be fully committed to the cause, irrespective of whether or not a contract offer is forthcoming from the Barclays Premier League champions.
England centre-back Gary Cahill is reportedly so frustrated by a lack of first-team football at Chelsea that he wants to leave the club in an attempt to safeguard his international place at the European Championship in the summer.
Champions Chelsea are involved in the relegation battle this season, manager Guus Hiddink said on Friday ahead of his side's Premier League clash with Everton.
Guus Hiddink admitted Diego Costa was sailing close to the wind after the striker's latest hot-headed antics in Chelsea's 2-2 draw with West Brom.
Didier Drogba says he is still in discussions with Montreal Impact over his future, saying a report that he had retired from playing to rejoin Chelsea as assistant to Guus Hiddink was premature.
Chelsea's attacking contingent must stabilise the Blues' season by learning to love the Premier League's "dirty work", according to boss Guus Hiddink.
Guus Hiddink insists his Chelsea players must develop the on-field tactical leadership that was evident during his last spell at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea recorded their first win under interim manager Guus Hiddink as the Blues' resurgence under their new boss continued with a 3-0 win at Crystal Palace.
Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink insists Cesc Fabregas will not be leaving Stamford Bridge during next month's transfer window.
Guus Hiddink will tolerate the odd act of petulance from Diego Costa as long as the Spain striker does "what he is hired for" and scores goals for Chelsea.
Oscar slipped to send a penalty over the crossbar and blow a vital Chelsea victory against Watford in interim manager Guus Hiddink's first match in charge, which ended 2-2 at Stamford Bridge.
Guus Hiddink has challenged Eden Hazard to rediscover his "ego" to become a key player at Chelsea again.
Guus Hiddink will be unveiled as Chelsea manager for a second time this afternoon.
Guus Hiddink has warned Chelsea's players they will face the axe if they do not show "great desire" to reverse the club's miserable Barclays Premier League fortunes.

Skip to comments.Obama's speaks again of a National Civilian Security Force
Posted on 03/12/2009 5:47:50 PM PDT by bvw
Excerpts from Obama's speech today at the dedication of Abraham Lincoln Hall at the National Defense University in Washington, D.C.:
"The attacks of 9/11 signaled the new dangers of the 21st century. And today, our people are still threatened by violent extremists ...
Yet terrorism and extremism make up just one part of the many challenges that confront our nation. ... A historic economic downturn has put at stake the prosperity that underpins our strength, while putting at risk the stability of governments and the survival of people around the world. ... Poverty, disease, the persistence of conflict and genocide in the 21st century challenge our international alliances, partnerships and institutions -- and must call on all of us to reexamine our assumptions.
These are the battlefields of the 21st century. These are the threats that we now face. And in these struggles, the United States of America must succeed -- and we will succeed.
We also know that the old approaches won't meet the challenges of our time. ... No army -- no matter how strong -- can eliminate every adversary. No weapon -- no matter how powerful -- can erase the hatred that lies in someone's heart.
So it falls to institutions like this -- and to individuals like you -- to help us understand the world as it is, to develop the capacities that we need to confront emerging danger, and to act with purpose and pragmatism to turn this moment of peril into one of promise. That's how we will find new pathways to peace and security. That is the work that we must do.
Now, make no mistake: This nation will maintain our military dominance. ...
But we also need to look beyond this conventional advantage as we develop the new approaches and new capabilities of the 21st century -- and in that effort, this university must play a critical role.
America must also balance and integrate all elements of our national power. We cannot continue to push the burden on to our military alone, nor leave dormant any aspect of the full arsenal of American capability. And that's why my administration is committed to renewing diplomacy as a tool of American power, and to developing our civilian national security capabilities. This effort takes place within the walls of this university, where civilians sit alongside soldiers in the classroom. And it must continue out in the field, where American civilians can advance opportunity, enhance governance and the rule of law, and attack the causes of war around the world. We have to enlist our civilians in the same way that we enlist those members of the armed services in understanding this broad mission that we have.
Well, here's an excerpt from a related FR thread from four weeks ago:
A little-publicized Department of Defense Directive (Number 1404.10) establishes a "DoD Civilian Expeditionary Workforce" and rescinds a prior directive dealing with the emergency use of civilian personnel.
The new 1404.10, dated January 23, 2009 -- just three days after the inauguration -- is effective immediately, and cancels the prior directive of the same designation ("Emergency-Essential (E-E) DoD U.S. Citizen Civilian Employees"), that was issued in 1992 under President Clinton. The 1992 directive specifically deals with overseas deployments of civilian personnel, and mentions the term "overseas" no fewer than 33 times.
The new directive does not mention the term "overseas" in the body of the directive even once. The word "overseas" appears in the new Directive 4 times: once as as a reference; once to describe a database "code"; once to describe the code values; and once in the Glossary. In other words, the new Directive doesn't apply to the overseas deployment of civilians at all, but applies to their deployment in the United States mainland.
The previous Directive does not mention "restoration of order" or "stability operations." These operations are prominently featured in the new directive. In fact, these functions are central to the mission of Obama's new DoD Civilian Expeditionary Workforce:
Members of the DoD Civilian Expeditionary Workforce shall be organized, trained, cleared, equipped, and ready to deploy in support of combat operations by the military; contingencies; emergency operations; humanitarian missions; disaster relief; restoration of order; drug interdiction; and stability operations of the Department of Defense in accordance with DoDD 3000.05...
While the directive suggest that the DoD will seek volunteers, Section 4 (d), subsection {e} paragraph 2 states: Management retains the authority to direct and assign civilians either voluntarily, involuntarily, or on an unexpected basis to accomplish the DoD mission.

Don't we have them and they are called the National Guard?
This is why we have a local and state police force. We don't need Acorn becoming the American Basij, although I'm sure this is what 0 is looking to do.
It's coming.
Great idea!!!We can line them up across the southern border and have them build a wall...one Obama brick at a time...!!!
I'm really becoming convinced this guy is a Nazi.
"I will need to see your papers before you can pass this checkpoint. Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Republican Party?"
Brownshirts, faded redcoats to me.
Bring it. Seriously.
You'd better believe it. Why are people so surprised at Hussein's actions when he tells us in advance?
We already have a civilian security force. The armed citizens in America outnumber the police, security, and the army, navy, air force and marines all put together.
PS, we sympathize and are like the majority of the police and military, we love America and need no civilian security force. We are a security force that can and will defend against anything that may threaten our right to life, liberty, and our pursuit of happiness.
What a moron!
no amount of money or civil obama force will ever stamp out hate....
try again BamBam- thanks for playing
If I didn't know better I would think that FUBO is purposely trying to start a revolution
OBAMA = One Big A$$ Mistake America
I hope BHOle issues them Kevlar, we wouldn't want to have any of them get Seriously hurt invading the Hood.
Will the Press ask him what the hell he's talking about ?
No details in the Speech means nobody can figure out what he talking about.
He still thinks he is getting DONATIONS for Campaign Speeches ?
He just keeps on with this National Civilian "Security" Force. I fear that it will just turn out to be ACORN at the voting polls in uniform. This is all very strange.
You got that right! Bring them on.
Michelle's Boot Camps For Radicals
By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Thursday, September 04, 2008 4:20 PM PT
Election '08: Democrats' reintroduction of militant Michelle Obama in Denver was supposed to show her softer side. But it only highlighted a radical part of her resume: Public Allies.
IBD Series: The Audacity Of Socialism
Barack Obama was a founding member of the board of Public Allies in 1992, resigning before his wife became executive director of the Chicago chapter of Public Allies in 1993. Obama plans to use the nonprofit group, which he features on his campaign Web site, as the model for a national service corps. He calls his Orwellian program, "Universal Voluntary Public Service."
Big Brother had nothing on the Obamas. They plan to herd American youth into government-funded reeducation camps where they'll be brainwashed into thinking America is a racist, oppressive place in need of "social change."
The pitch Public Allies makes on its Web site doesn't seem all that radical. It promises to place young adults (18-30) in paid one-year "community leadership" positions with nonprofit or government agencies. They'll also be required to attend weekly training workshops and three retreats.
In exchange, they'll get a monthly stipend of up to $1,800, plus paid health and child care. They also get a post-service education award of $4,725 that can be used to pay off past student loans or fund future education.
But its real mission is to radicalize American youth and use them to bring about "social change" through threats, pressure, tension and confrontation the tactics used by the father of community organizing, Saul "The Red" Alinsky.
"Our alumni are more than twice as likely as 18-34 year olds to . . . engage in protest activities," Public Allies boasts in a document found with its tax filings. It has already deployed an army of 2,200 community organizers like Obama to agitate for "justice" and "equality" in his hometown of Chicago and other U.S. cities, including Cincinnati, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, New York, Phoenix, Pittsburgh and Washington. "I get to practice being an activist," and get paid for it, gushed Cincinnati recruit Amy Vincent.
Public Allies promotes "diversity and inclusion," a program paper says. More than 70% of its recruits are "people of color." When they're not protesting, they're staffing AIDS clinics, handing out condoms, bailing criminals out of jail and helping illegal aliens and the homeless obtain food stamps and other welfare.
Public Allies brags that more than 80% of graduates have continued working in nonprofit or government jobs. It's training the "next generation of nonprofit leaders" future "social entrepreneurs."
The Obamas discourage work in the private sector. "Don't go into corporate America," Michelle has exhorted youth. "Work for the community. Be social workers." Shun the "money culture," Barack added. "Individual salvation depends on collective salvation."
"If you commit to serving your community," he pledged in his Denver acceptance speech, "we will make sure you can afford a college education." So, go through government to go to college, and then go back into government.
Many of today's youth find the pitch attractive. "I may spend the rest of my life trying to create social movement," said Brian Coovert of the Cincinnati chapter. "There is always going to be work to do. Until we have a perfect country, I'll have a job."
Not all the recruits appreciate the PC indoctrination. "It was too touchy-feely," said Nelly Nieblas, 29, of the 2005 Los Angeles class. "It's a lot of talk about race, a lot of talk about sexism, a lot of talk about homophobia, talk about -isms and phobias."
One of those -isms is "heterosexism," which a Public Allies training seminar in Chicago describes as a negative byproduct of "capitalism, white supremacy, patriarchy and male-dominated privilege."
The government now funds about half of Public Allies' expenses through Clinton's AmeriCorps. Obama wants to fully fund it and expand it into a national program that some see costing $500 billion. "We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded" as the military, he said.
The gall of it: The Obamas want to create a boot camp for radicals who hate the military and stick American taxpayers with the bill.
Look up Lenin's Cheka, folks.
Wow. Excellent analogy!
Very sad. Hope more than a rare few know to what you refer.
so am I and what's so stupefying is all his gloom and doom and he's throwing his rhetoric around just like he did with the libtard financial mess we are in now. I bet you he'll go with the gloom & doom until he gets what he wants on this front. shhheeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssshhhhhhhhh what a downer.
People, you better get ready,"I urge you to watch this."! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bggXQxhyo4s&eurl=http://www.ignatius-piazza-front-sight.com/2009/03/02/patriot-or-traitor/
People, you better get ready,"I urge you to watch this."! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bggXQxhyo4s&eurl=http://www.ignatius-piazza-front-sight.com/2009/03/02/patriot-or-traitor/
Fascism, the new American way.
The New Hitler Youth.
Bring it. Seriously.
This idiot commie is going to get so many people PO'd he's going to regret ever infesting the White House.
Obama might not want to encourage this because the citizens could well take it to heart and it could (and probably would) work against him. He could end up very, very sorry he even suggested this.
Where do you think this empty suit got this idea? More than likely over "coffee" at Bill and Bernadine's casa ...that whole area is entrenched with 60's radicals of all colors. They have waited so long to be in complete control and now they figure their chance has finally come.
Things alike:
In Iran: "The Niruyeh Moghavemat Basij - the Mobilisation Resistance Force - was the strong right arm of Ayatollah Khomeini. Its volunteers were martyred in their tens of thousands in the Iran-Iraq war, and were given the role of moral police at home."
In The Soviet Union: "The Cheka was created in December 1917, over a month after the October Revolution and the formation of the Bolshevik government. ... At the direction of Lenin, the Cheka performed mass arrests, imprisonments, and executions of "enemies of the people". In this, the Cheka said that they targeted "class enemies" such as the bourgeoisie, and members of the clergy; the first organized mass repression began against the libertarian Socialists of Petrograd in April 1918. However, within a month the Cheka had extended its repression to all political opponents of the communist government, including anarchists and others on the left."
They are to control people who oppose socialism.
Round them up, send them to re-education camps.
Thanks for posting that info. We need to inform as many people as possible about this issue. I have no doubt that 0, and his staff in the White Hut, fully intend to implement some sort of force modeled after these groups.
I hear they plan on giving free swimming lessons to the campers, too!
I sorta picture these guys having more resemblance to farrakhan's bodyguards.
(photo Irish Pennant)
Whew! I could truthfully skate by on that one!
Wow! What a photo! I notice many interesting generalizations that could be drawn from it. That's a classic.
Can you say sieg heil?
Do you remember that among the Basji's army were the children -— the misfit and the mentally retarded? The children's army given toy plastic keys to use to open the gates of paradise, for they were sent into the killing fields of the Iran-Iraq war to be human mine clearers.
So too has Obama engaged our intellectually naive young people and given them rhetorical trinkets "Hope and Change" and sent them forward throughout the land to break and defuse the angry reaction of the sane upon learning of his plans?
And let us not forget Mao's Revolutionary Guards.
On May 16, 1966, Chairman Mao alleged that liberal bourgeoisie elements were dominating the party and insisted that they needed to be removed through post-revolutionary class struggle by mobilizing the thoughts and actions of Chinas youth, who formed Red Guards groups around the country.
The damages caused by the Cultural Revolution were seen by impartial observers, by the majority of Chinas population, as well as by the Communist Party of China, as an epochal unmitigated disaster for the country and its people.
It is a cultural revolution that Obama is calling for and working to bring about. Those who claimed I was overboard with the brownshirt analogy have some merit — perhaps the far closer analogy is the Red Guard!
I'd like to hear somebody argue, no way, Jose! Heck, he's already got ACORN operating and fully funded for the next several years, the seeds have been planted.
Thanks, I am aware of the Basij's reprehensible tactics of using the handicapped, and impressionable young people, to do their dirty work. Given the opportunity, ACORN already has the infrastructure in place to move in a similar direction.
The Selective Service agency "floated" the idea of a "special skills" draft.
To make this acceptable the government would have to draft only a small number of people or use a "crisis" (everything is a crisis nowadays) to make the population submissive.
The MSM will likely pump out lots of propaganda about "giving people and opportunity to give something back."
Dont we have them and they are called the National Guard?
You have to remember that the national guard is controlled by the governor of the state. Obama would control a national police force.
If the president conscripts the national guard, they become subject to the Posse Comitatus law. The national police force would not be so hindered. This is Obama's attempt to circumvent the Posse Comitatus law, and sic the brown shirts on the american people.
We do not need another police force inthis country.
ACORN already has the infrastructure in place to move in a similar direction.
plus 3.5 billion dollars of Obama stimulus money. They can do a lot of damage with that kind of money.

We had two nights at Little Brak Beach House. The rooms were very clean, breakfast was more than adequate and delicious, the hostel offers to book tours. The staff is very helpful and friendly! Without a rental car, I'm not sure if I would recommend the property. The beach of Mossel Bay is not within walking distance. However, another beach in this location. The hostel is not directly in Mossel Bay but in Little Brak. We liked it well!

Over the next 6-8 months I stayed in touch with the scheduling office to find a course that would be offered in our area, but there wasn't anything. The Real Estate office never sent any further notices. My husband and I have started a new business that requires us to travel and keep our focus on the launch of our adventure. Doing this course is not in our future.
Feb. 8/08 I contacted the office requesting a refund. No one returned my call until Feb 18/08. Mr. Kedrick (1-800-270-3357 X404) finally spoke to me in person Feb 22/08 to let me know that they do not refund money, that I could wait until there was another course available in my area and that is all that he could do. I let him know that I was was extreamly disappointed that this was the policy of this company as James Smith portrays an image of integrity, and that I would be taking legal action.

Abstract—The Table Maker's Dilemma is the problem of always getting correctly rounded results when computing the elementary functions. After a brief presentation of this problem, we present new developments that have helped us to solve this problem for the double-precision exponential function in a small domain. These new results show that this problem can be solved, at least for the double-precision format, for the most usual functions.

Floating-point arithmetic, rounding, elementary functions, Table Maker's Dilemma.

I've had my personal name set up with a .net account for a while and used it for a testbed for whatever I am tinkering with. At one point before I got hooked on WordPress, I had setup a b2evolution install there. Despite the fact that I don't promote that site at all, it has a lower Page Rank and the b2evo blogs only have a handful of posts (compared to over 800 on one well ranked WordPress blog along) that site is getting so much spam that it's using more bandwidth and causing more server load than all my other (WordPress based or plain HTML) sites combined. I have a long list of denied IP addresses on that domain and I regularly go into that b2evo install and use their included antispam tool, updating it's blacklist twice a week. With WordPress, I use Kitten's Spaminator and Block Lists Antispam Measures and I never touch a thing, except to add a domain to the blacklist on the occasion once or twice a week at most that one gets through. That's once or twice a week total across several installs, btw.
So, anyway, next time anyone complains about spam problems with WordPress, feel free to refer them to this post.
Done ranting and complimenting, now back to try to salvage my work before deleting that vile bast... er, b2evolution from my server forever.

Frustrating long waits on hold, abrupt/uninformed phone operators, unreliable local contractor was used. Contractor failed to show for 3 scheduled appointments and was rude and unprofessional when reached by phone. Simple install still not done a month after I paid for it. Terrible system poorly implemented.
We had a Sears repair technician come to our home. He was in the house for 10 minutes and all he did was pull a trouble shooting sheet from the back of the washer, and read how to press the buttons on the front of the machine to run a diagnostic report. All he did was tell us what we already told sears. The washer had a Lr trouble code. He then left the house , came back 20 minutes later and gave us a bill for $142.36. Well above the $69.98 Sears quoted. I did not call for a second opinion, I called for a repair man to come out and fix the problem. Worst service a person could expect. I will never deal with sears again. They lied about the cost, never fixed the problem and on the service order the repair man handed in he added that we refused tohave the work done. He did not have any parts to do the repair, and a $142.36 for a second opinion/quote is theft. Never use Sears.

SUNDAY VIEW; 'The Lion King' Earns Its Roars Of Approval
By Vincent Canby
Published: November 23, 1997
AS AN AIR OF JUBILATION filled the meticulously restored New Amsterdam Theater following the final preview performance of ''The Lion King,'' I was somehow reminded of a comment attributed to Ethel Merman about Mary Martin. ''She's O.K.,'' said Merman, who had better things to do than talk about the latest competition, ''if you like talent.''
If you like talent, you have to acknowledge the magical accomplishments of Julie Taymor in transforming the 1994 Disney cartoon feature into a major Broadway event. The multigifted artist not only directed the show, but she also wrote the lyrics for one of the new songs, designed the costumes and (with Michael Curry) the gorgeous masks and puppets. Critics of the National Endowment for the Arts take note: this overnight sensation, now making her commercial Broadway debut, perfected her various talents during years of working with the same not-for-profit theaters the N.E.A. was designed to support.
The result is one of the most memorable, moving and original theatrical extravaganzas in years, an enterprise that can only make the profit-propelled Disney organization even richer.
Here is an animist ''Odyssey'' that mixes primal African music with first-rate Anglo-American pop, American and African actors with puppets of international provenance, a mythic children's tale with good old-fashioned burlesque.
The show's first spectacular sequence expands the mind for all that follows. As if called forth by tribal drums, the theater becomes alive with familiar creatures of dreamlike beauty, ostentatiously unreal and absolutely authentic in spite of the actor-handlers we see manipulating them. Virtually life-size elephants and a rhino, seemingly woven of rattan, lumber serenely down the aisles of the New Amsterdam, avoiding the feet of patrons they don't appear to see.
Giraffes, their long necks bobbing ever so slightly, pick their way across the stage with an elegant diffidence that, you suddenly realize, is the way giraffes have always walked. Gazelles leap into view. A lone cheetah appears. Eventually the entire animal kingdom assembles, called together by Mufasa, the benevolent lion king, to acknowledge his son and heir. He is Young Simba, a loving boy whose youthful high spirits will soon almost destroy the realm.
Thus begins a fable about a wise old father, a prodigal son, an evil uncle named Scar (who aspires beyond his capacities to be a Richard III), three raucous, restless hyenas who lust for blood, an unlikely comedy team composed of a smelly wart hog, Pumbaa, and his gabby meerkat sidekick, Timon, and the king's fastidious chamberlain, Zazu, a largish bird, a hornbill, whose mind is somewhat less bright than his plumage. They are most engaging company.
''The Lion King'' is told with a theatricality that frequently takes the breath away, and with a sophistication that has little to do with the usual Disney cuteness or with the Disney idea of animism. There are no dancing spoons here as in ''Beauty and the Beast.'' Young Simba is no Keene-eyed moppet of a lion cub, as he is in the film, but an irrepressible 13-year-old boy (Scott Irby- Ranniar), with the energy of a hip-hopping New York street kid. He doesn't yet have a mane like his father's, only a scrawny tail that he hasn't grown into but that, as he sings and dances up a storm, he sometimes twirls as if it might become a jump rope.
Ms. Taymor has realized a singing and dancing show for which the movie appears to have been a mere blueprint. The book is by Roger Allers (one of the film's two directors) and Irene Mecchi (one of the film's three writers). Elton John and Tim Rice, who wrote the film's five songs, have contributed three more, which have been augmented by five additional songs by Hans Zimmer, Mark Mancina, Jay Rifkin and Lebo M, the only African member of the film's music team. Lebo M, who is both a member of the singing chorus and its director, and Tsidii Le Loka, a South African singer and songwriter who plays the baboon-shaman Rafiki, also wrote the tribal chants that give the stage production a celebratory vocal heft the movie never sought.
For all of these contributors, the show is obviously the product of Ms. Taymor's singular imagination, financed by the Disney company's deep pockets. In the past, Ms. Taymor's work has tended toward the visually rich but esoteric, like her productions of ''Titus Andronicus'' (1994) and ''The Green Bird'' (1996), both with Theater for a New Audience, and ''Juan Darien'' at Lincoln Center Theater in 1996.
With ''The Lion King,'' she demonstrates that she is quite capable not only of meeting the demands of the commercial theater but also of setting new standards for it.
MOST IMPORTANT, THE show effortlessly realizes serious concerns that in the movie seemed simply obligatory but here give real shape to myth. The Elton John-Tim Rice ''Circle of Life,'' a big neo-religioso number sung by the ensemble, acquires mystical dimension on the stage, introduced as it is by Ms. Le Loka's otherworldly voice and presence as the shaman. In this number and other moments throughout the show, ''The Lion King,'' long after the Age of Aquarius, recalls something of the sweet, hopeful naivete of ''Hair.'' It finds order in the universe.

Peter Capstick's Africa
A Return To The Long Grass

For the readers of hunting literature, the name of Peter Capstick is becoming synonymous with excitement, danger, and high adventure. Such highly successful titles as Death in the Long Grass, Death in the Silent Places, and Death in the Dark Continent have established him as the modern-day master of African adventure writing. Sportsman, adventurer, raconteur par excellence, Capstick has in many ways done for contemporary hunting literature what Hemingway and Robert Ruark did in decades past.
Until now, Capstick has written post facto about classic hunters of the past and safaris in which he participated as a professional hunter. Peter Capstick's Africa, however, is a very different breed of book: it is the enthralling tale of an entirely new safari, an exciting first-person adventure in which Peter Capstick returns to the long grass for his own dangerous and very personal excursion. The result is a definitive work on African hunting, and one of Peter Capstick's greatest achievements to date.
In 1985, Capstick went back into the African bush with two top photographers and a crack professional hunter, It was a venture taken for personal challenge, and for the chance to look anew at what had become of the Africa immortalized in his own earlier works. Peter Capstick's Africa is the chronicle, in text and pictures, of this safari. It is full of the same edge-of-the-seat narration, witty anecdotes, and wry observations that have made Capstick's earlier books so popular. But in addition, it tells the story of Africa today as Capstick sees it: a place that is in some ways the same as, but in many different from, the "dark continent" of even a few years ago. The text of the book has been integrated with the photographs of Paul Kimble and Dick van Niekerk into a lavish full-color production that illustrates Capstick's story in a way his fans have never seen before.
Peter Capstick's Africa is a book few lovers of travel and adventure will want to be without.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
After taking one set of classes, I noticed that something was wrong. The assignments did not require college-level writing and seemed like busy work. When I had questions for the facilitator, there was no way to contact the facilitator for guidance. The class facilitator wouldn't return calls or emails for weeks. The academic advisor wouldn't return calls either.
When the next set of classes began, I advised the adviser that I was no longer interested. The adviser assured me that financial aid would cover the classes and I would be able to finish my degree. Regrettably, I enrolled but I wasn't able to finish the set of classes.
I called my adviser and he reassured me that everything would be fine for the next term. I asked him several times and the advisor was absolutely certain that everything would be fine. Financial aid was already approved. Then I was no longer able to log in to classes.
I contacted the academic advisor who didn't return my calls or emails. I tried to email and call the facilitator but I received no response whatsoever. I never knew why but the financial aid office returned the funds to the lender. Now, my transcripts and plans for graduate school are on hold because Axia College has the audacity to put a $3500 debt on my credit report.
This debt has tarnished my credit, educational aspirations and personal life. If there is a class action suit, I am ready to join. It is not fair to ruin the lives of people trying to make their way in the world.

Games Taking Up Too Much Space?
Posted 14 May 2004 - 06:57 AM
|QUOTE (Angerwound @ May 12 2004, 01:39 AM)
| Furthermore, there were some movies contained in the game that were instructional or needed for gameplay therefore they were not included. From now on if anyone posts a game please add a note pertaining to if the vidz are opening logos/Language vidz or if are in gameplay because some people don't like those removed....
Let's keep the list going!
I very much like this idea of giving more info about what the deleted files contain. Personally, I always keep in-game and ending movies, and I usually keep opening and attract movies if they are good. What I don't like are the endless opening logos, so I delete those.
So if we could easilly distinguish between these different types of files in the 'unneeded files' section, that would be cool.
Posted 14 May 2004 - 01:57 PM
I don't think Rahz' posts the in-game movies on the website anyway.
Edited to clarify...
Logos usually have "logo" or "EA" or "MS" (etc) in the filename. If you see a Midway logo before a Midway game, like Defender, the movie is probably called "Mid" or "Midway", etc. They won't call the logo movie 3dfA2Hd6.bik so you have to guess.
BIKs are easy to identify anyway. Just download them to your PC and use the BIK viewer.
I don't know what an "attract" movie is, but they are usually called "attract.bik." I have seen "intro" and "trailer" in filenames as well.
If you take Angerwound's most recent contribution for Blood Omen 2, it should be fairly easy to decipher what about 90% of those movies are for. And of course, he said he left gameplay movies intact. I also leave movies intact that are viewed between levels, during levels, etc. ... and like I mentioned, I don't think Rahz' even puts in-game movies in the deletions archives.

An example of games where it is not obvious what the listed deletions are for is Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball. And in Midtown Madness 3 the listed deletion is for the entire /Data/Shared/Wmv/ folder, which (as far as I can remember) has not only the 'logo' movies which I dislike, but also in-game movies which I personally would want to keep.
I'm not trying to insist that everyone agrees exactly what files are 'unneeded' or not, as there are different opinions on this. Instead, I'm suggesting that a bit more info is given so that people can make those decisions for themselves.
Posted 14 May 2004 - 04:05 PM
I can imagine a system where each user has a set of preferences as to which types of files he or she wants to delete. For example, a french-speaking user might want to keep just the french language files. Some people might want to keep all the videos, some people delete just some of them (e.g. logos), and others want to remove all of them.
Either DVD2XBOX itself could be extended to take account of these preferences when the user runs the .ACL file, or (perhaps more easilly) some website scripting could generate an .ACL file on-the-fly based on client settings stored in a cookie or similar. The web-based solution would probably be better because even for non-DVD2XBOX users, the website could list the deletions on the screen based on the user preferences.
If such an automated system was developed, it would become important for the database to store more metadata about the deletions. For example, at the moment the deletion listings for language files assume the user wants to delete all non-english files.
I would be happy to add this metadata to any listed games I own, if the website could add suitable columns. I may even be able to help out on the scripting.

HourlyHours to be determined
Start DateApril 7, 2013
I am looking for someone to help me generate leads for a web design company. Prior experience is a MUST - priority will be given to those that can show me samples of lead generation in the aforementioned industry.
I am open to any methods but I want to approve them first. Ad posting, social media, telemarketing or whatever else you may think of as long as it works.
In your application, start by telling me where you were born. Then tell me how you plan to generate the leads. Then tell me about your previous experience. Any application that doesn't include any of those 3 will be declined and marked as spam.
If you can generate good leads then this will be a long term position so only apply if you are serious!!
