Is Luann de Lesseps 'Pissed' At Jill Zarin For 'Destroying' Her Wedding?!
However, according to an insider, Jill Zarin has sabotaged the former Countess by exposing tons of wedding footage via her Instagram page.
Now, according to the source, People is no longer willing to pay de Lesseps since a majority of the event has has already been leaked on Zarin's page!
"Luann is pissed," the source told Radar Online. "Jill cannot help herself. She constantly needs to make everything about her !"
Radar readers know this wasn't the only crisis the bride faced before her big day. Who the Countess invited to her wedding stirred even more drama.
As previously reported, de Lesseps allegedly lied to the Bravo network by saying she wanted her wedding to be kept private, only later to cut a $20,000 deal with People magazine for exclusive rights to report the event.
Howver, Luann de Lesseps' publicist Pete Sanders is shutting down the rumors, denies any feud with Bravo or Jill Zarin.
"Bravo was not angry with Luann regarding the wedding," Sanders told Real Mr. Housewife. "Luann never wanted the wedding to be filmed. She wanted it to be for family and friends and a private affair. Luann always wanted it to be a private event."
"Also," Sanders revealed, "even if Bravo had filmed, it wouldn't have been an issue in regards to the People exclusive, as the show would air after the exclusive was published."
In regards to the rumors about Zarin, Sanders explained that, "Pictures went out not only from Jill, but from everyone. Cynthia Bailey posted. Marysol Patton posted. People's exclusive had nothing to do with Instagram pictures."
"The only thing Luann did not allow were cell phones in the actual ceremony," he told the blog site. "This had nothing to do with People. People ran the first official picture after the wedding. They ran that right after the wedding because the knew Instagram postings would go out right after the wedding. The issue was getting an official photo out the night of the wedding and the videos and photos that will appear in the magazine this week."
Sanders also noted that "Jill looked fabulous at the wedding as did everyone. She also had a wonderful time as did the rest of the guests."

JH Girls Play Hard
PAC Action at St. Agnes
St Agnes wins PHC
The Jr High Volleyball PHC was held Sat. at St Agnes. The Hemingford Bobcats played the eventual winners in the first match of the tournament. St. Agnes came out strong against a nervous Bobcat team and won the first game of the match. The Bobcats pulled themselves together to play an aggressive second game. Kristina Kramer and JJ Forgey set up the ball for Kelsey Wood and Katie Heitz to get some awesome hits. Rachel Kaman, Felicia Vela, and Briley Hannaford made some excellent choices at the net to make the game exciting. Katie Heitz served for the most points with 5 pts.
The second match for Hemingford was against Sioux County. Hemingford serves were much better in this game. The Bobcats won 25-21 with Kayleen Boone, Kelsey Wood, and Felicia Vela were the top servers with 5, 5, and 6 pts. The second game of the match we were a little flat, but we still set the ball up well to get some hits. Sandra Mendiola and Katie Heitz were the top servers with 4 pts each. We went into a third game and it came down to which team had the most consistent servers. Hemingford lost the match 25-21, 15-25, 21-25, but were still winners because they set the ball up. They were not going to play bump ball to win. The girls had a lot of movement on the court and have improved tremendously from the first game.

I had a chance to enter and have a look closely to a modern and sophisticated Boeing 737 aircraft belongs to Airsia in September 2009. A pilot room also called a cockpit is the area, near the front of an aircraft, from which a pilot with his co-pilot or a flight assistant or a flight technician controls the aircraft operation. It was an unforgetable experience for me.

yes this phone will work in india and it will hit the shop by december
well guy's ,girls & moto fans this phone is realising all over the world on cuming monday so its a great news for thoes who wanna purchase it !!!!!!!!!!!!
100 Moto, 25 Nov 2010In addition to someone who already replied and confirmed this phone works on BOTH GSM and CDMA... moreSeems you don't get it. Indeed, this is verizon plan. Buy the phone on their network and if you go abroad, call them for an unlocking code(which means more money, of course).
BUT : This band locking is SOFTWARE, not HARDWARE. Same issue happend on CDMA HTC Touch Pro 2(winmo device, but same block). They managed to bypass the lock, so they will manage to do it with D2G too :). Besides, android allows more things than winmo.On winmo, all they had to do was to reflash the radio(phone) part and it worked. I'm not that into android like i'm on wm(omnia 2 user), but i guess it's similar. Rooting the phone and some other tweaks will make the phone work in US too.
Another thing, on ebay you can already find unlocking codes. 50$, true, expensive, but it's working for the rest of the world.
DevilGray, 24 Nov 2010But it also write there.( GSM support: 850,900,1800,1900 and HSDPA: 850,1900,2100). So Global ... moreIn addition to someone who already replied and confirmed this phone works on BOTH GSM and CDMA frequency, the reason for this "global" edition is simply for Verizon CDMA customers can buy a phone thru Verizon and have it work WORLDWIDE!
The CDMA only version is called Droid 2, the GSM version is called Milestone 2, add 2 together and you get Droid 2 Global, get it?
Spike, 24 Nov 2010hmm nice spesc. but i guess this phone will be juuust for US. here more details about this... moreLike i said, IT CAN BE USED WORLDWIDE,INCLUDING ROMANIA. Si eu sunt tot de acolo :). Are frecventele blocate pentru americani atat. la noi se merge pe 900/1800.
i love you droid global
this is my wish
this is my world
please come soon to iran
hmm nice spesc. but i guess this phone will be juuust for US.
here more details about this device http://www.zuum.ro/pagina.php?id=207
DevilGray, 24 Nov 2010But it also write there.( GSM support: 850,900,1800,1900 and HSDPA: 850,1900,2100). So Global ... moreIt's both gsm and cdma.It works worldwide. Verizon blocked AT&T US gsm bands(850/1900 Mhz). The rest of the world uses 900/1800 gsm bands, so it can be easily unlocked. As we speak on xda forum they are trying for a fix to work on US too. I think i will leave my omnia 2 for this or a defy.
But it also write there.( GSM support: 850,900,1800,1900 and HSDPA: 850,1900,2100). So Global or Verizon. Pls give a definite detail about this. Thk.
hi al (hey hey hey)
im writing this review caus i found this phone to be a real treat , nom nom nom.
i was with my lovely bf on the weekend just gone and we decided to put it in my ass and call it. but when we got the beauty of a phone up there the slider opened up and i cant get it out.. and the sexy bastard wont stop calling me.. great battery life i must say xx toodles..
can someone help as to where one can buy this phone is India and whether it wil work flawles on Indian CDMA & GSM Networks. Please provide the links if any.
Thanks in advance
exFAT32, 22 Nov 2010yes you can buy phone for the full retail price which is 580$ = 425 = 3500 HRK, btw the phone... moreSo then, do you know some trusted online stores where we can buy this phone? It would be my first time to buy something online if ever, so I wanna make sure my money won't be put to waste.
I already tried looking for it on ebay.com, but then the prices for it were already high.
Please provide the stores' links. Thanks!
Tudor, 22 Nov 2010Uhm, I am from Romania, and I havent seen it on any website , can you provide any links?Because probably it will apperear here at a major carrier a year after it was launched like the milestone at Orange.
Droid x global 1.2ghz, maybe with 4g, video call, froyo or gingerbread. Or moto dogz 1.2ghz, video call, gingerbread, 4g before the terminator 2ghz cpu.

Oh oh....Jana's tagged me......no one has ever dared to do that to me before.
Hmm so you want me to share with you and the rest of blog land 6 of my weirdest traits?
I don't have any.....do I? hmmm think, think, think.
Oh here's one...Up until my late teens I hated numbers, and I would avoid reading dates. I even got very angry with the little boy next door as he was trying to count up to one hundred.
This is probably why I was woeful at maths at school. I think I associated high numbers with death.
2. I don't own a mobile phone...I don't know how to use one and I intend never to get one!
3. I brush my teeth in the shower....because I figure that when I condition my hair I need to do something for at least 2 minutes before I wash it out.
4. I collect animal skulls.
5. I love fishing, and I used to own a worm farm but they all died or moved house...hmmmm maybe it was because I used to count them on a daily basises.
6. When I was about 10, I was obsessed by Kirk Douglas, I'd walk around with my finger pushed into my chin, hoping to get a dimple like his!
So there you have it....I could have gone on but maybe it would have put you to sleep.

Choosing a business name is among the most important things you'll do when starting a business. A fantastic business name can stand by itself and attract customers. Talk to your loved ones, friends or colleagues that will help you come up with some imaginative names. You can also create a cool and catchy name for your business by navigating to Business Names.
An easy catchy name is best to communicate when clients are searching for you. Lots of individuals visualize a title when they hear or read it. Selecting a business name that produces an image in a client's mind is an excellent aid to memory and a strong advertising tool.
Selecting a name that produces visual recognition can give a hand to branding your business or product. Folks relate to words both emotionally and literally. Use words in your organization name that positively invoke your organization image.
Pick a name that gives your clients some hint about what your company does. If you don't plan on becoming a global brand, names such as "Nike" or "Walmart" are not ideal. An excellent example is "LendingTree" or "Bankrate," which clearly portrays their companies to maintain the lending or financial sectors.
This is the reason a lot of electricians would use the phrase "electric" in their business name. Keep your company name short so that it will fit in your stationery and advertising material. A business name no longer than 30 characters can also be excellent for a domain name and internet search optimization.

V oters in the Whitehall Central School district approved the district's proposed $14.77 million budget Tuesday.
The spending plan was approved by a margin of 206 to 122.
The plan, which includes a 7.56 percent increase in spending, will raise the tax levy by 1.88 percent. Although the tax rate per thousand won't be finalized until later this summer, Joe Karas, business manager said it will increase approximately $.12 from $10.27 per $1,000 of assessed value to $10.38.
The district will receive a $941,000 in state aid and will use $363,000 from its appropriated fund balance and $300,000 from its fund balance to keep the tax levy increase in check.
Of the $14.77 million, 48 percent of the budget covers expenses related to instruction, 33 percent is for benefits and 12 percent is for support staff which includes custodial staff, transportation and administrative costs.
The bump in aid, and savings realized by leaving a number of non-instructional positions unfilled, will enable the district to hire or restore 10.1 full-time equivalent teaching positions. It is the first year since 2008-09 that the district has been able to add staff.
Those hires will allow the district to implement a new block schedule beginning next fall. Officials said in order for the schedule to work, the district would need to increase staffing.
Voters also approved a proposition to reestablish a capital reserve account. The measure was approved 146 to 60.
Huntington reelected
James Huntington, vice president of the board of education, was reelected to serve another term, receiving 240 votes. Amy Austin led all candidates with 257 votes. Both were elected to serve five-year terms.
Jeremy Putorti received 205 votes and will serve a truncated two-year term caused by the resignation of Joyce Corcoran.
Pat Rushia received 139 votes and failed to gain election to the board.
Huntington and Austin will be sworn into office at the district's organizational meeting at the end of the fiscal year. Putorti will begin serving his term immediately.

Since Warren Buffett took over the management of Berkshire Hathaway in 1965, he has written an Annual Shareholder Letter outlining the progress of the company, setting goals, and discussing the culture and methodology of Berkshire Hathaway. And, while a good portion of each letter is devoted to a rundown of numbers for Berkshire Hathaway, scattered throughout each article is quite a bit of Buffett's down-to-earth mentality and some fantastic financial advice.
In this series, I'm going to go through and highlight some of the best letters from 1965 through the present. There won't really be that much of an order, and we won't do every year, but inside you'll find not only an interesting insight into Berkshire Hathaway, but also history and the mind of the Oracle of Omaha himself.
Today, we're going to take a look at the Shareholder Letter from 1977. This letter has been lauded as one of the top five best letters written by Buffett. But first we'll get some background on what was going on in Berkshire Hathaway that year.
Berkshire Hathaway in 1977
Warren Buffett took over the failing Berkshire Hathaway in 1965 and by 1977, he had purchased several other companies including National Indemnity Company, National Fire and Marine Insurance Company, and Sun Newspapers. The business was beginning to stabilize slightly, but it was still holding on to its failing textile business and would for nearly another decade. At this time, Buffett was not a celebrity and his ideas were considered outlandish and unorthodox at best.
1977 Shareholder Letter Highlights
This letter is the first one on Berkshire Hathaway's digital archive, and in addition to providing an interesting view of the finances of the company (which we will not go into here) it also features some interesting insight into how Buffett reasons out successes, management, and economic performance of the companies underneath him.
"…but this figure, like any other figure of a single date (we had an unrealized loss of $17 million at the end of 1974), should not be taken too seriously. Most of our large stock positions are going to be held for many years and the scorecard on our investment decisions will be provided by business results over that period, and not by prices on any given day. Just as it would be foolish to focus unduly on short-term prospects when acquiring an entire company, we think it equally unsound to become mesmerized by prospective near term earnings or recent trends in earnings when purchasing small pieces of a company; i.e., marketable common stocks."
Here, Buffett's calm practicality shows through, as does his methodology of buying stock for the long haul rather than selling. He admits several times throughout the letter that the company could be doing better. When he took over the company, the ledger was bleeding red so it's likely that had an impact on him. This ability to look past the day-to-day profits into the future potential is one of the things that makes Buffett a fantastic businessman and investor.
…While our operating earnings per share were up 37% from the year before, our beginning capital was up 24%, making the gain in earnings per share considerably less impressive than it might appear at first glance.
Here, the numbers aren't as important; the valuable lesson here is one that many businesses fail to learn: you have to look at the whole picture. Buffett stresses that it's important to be realistic about the bottom line and remember that nothing operates in a vacuum. There are going to be other things to consider, and success
While control would give us the opportunity – and the responsibility – to manage operations and corporate resources, we would not be able to provide management in either of those respects equal to that now in place. In effect, we can obtain a better management result through non-control than control. This is an unorthodox view, but one we believe to be sound.
This quote is particularly interesting to me because it is one of Buffett's most unusual stances reflected in the letter. And, while many times this hands-off approach has worked well for Berkshire Hathaway, it has backfired at least once, after the purchase of General Reinsurance Corporation in 1999. During that confusing leadership change, General Reinsurance lost $1.6 and Berkshire Hathaway itself also lost quite a bit of money. But we'll get into that in a different letter. It is simply interesting to note how long that non-control policy has been around.
There are plenty more interesting tidbits in the letter, so if you're interested, the full letter is definitely worth a read. You can find it here. All of the letters from 1977 to the present are archived on the Berkshire Hathaway website, but there was also a compilation published in book form. It is available on Amazon for around $35.


text: Okay so first I'm posting here because of the three threads that had the word "infection" in the title from the search I did, two of them were posted in the Win7 sub-forum, and I happen to be using Win7 right now, so that's why I posted it here. Also the topic of the forum may not include Security issues, so if it gets closed etc... I'll understand. Please move or close as appropriate. I'm asking the question here because I suspect the people here know more about the "nuts and bolts" of the Operating System(s), compared to the malware removal people you might find on places like Bleeping Computer, that know how to remove malware (by rote), but don't understand the "Big Picture" of malware and how it can get onboard a computer. I did a minimal amount of research on connecting "malware" with "google drive" and found some connection but the devil is in the detail and I don't have enough understanding of the technical aspects to answer my own questions, so I'm posting it here. I recently made a FOIA (Freedom of Information Act Request) from a (US) government agency and the response was to send me an email with a link to some Google Drive. It appears that, in order to access the information, I have to have some kind of feature of Google Drive installed. The reason for the FOIA is, in part, because I suspect criminal activity on the part of some of the people within government, and I'm looking for evidence and connections between the government agency and the criminal activity, so when, instead of getting a basic excel, text, word, etc... document, or even a pdf, I get a link to a Google Drive account that has a bazillion characters in the URL (like what I see sometimes when up & downloading to "Mega"). I have no idea who's Google Drive account this is, what will happen when I install Google Drive and then access this document. Will it infect my computer? Give my IP? Give my MAC? Install a RAT? etc... The idea that a government agency would require a person to have Google Drive installed in order to receive information from a FOIA seems a bit "off" to me. Attaching a standalone file to an email is standard. I can then scan the document before opening it. Making a person install an oddball software like Google Drive, then open your computer to the risk of infection seems suspicious to me. I'd make an issue about it, but do not want to tip the hand of the person sending the document. I'm ready to go to the FBI, but need to know whether or not it's even possible to do something like this via Google Drive 1st. So, primary question, can a computer be infected by attempting to access, download or open a document via Google Drive, and how likely is it that a government agency would use this method of disseminating information via FOIA requests, given that the whole purpose of the act is to force the government to give information to whoever asks for it. One argument could be made that this is like trying to pay a $1,000 tax bill with pennies. If just feels "off" to me, and I'm wondering if my suspicions have any validity.

Spring collection of "3.1 Phillip Lim" whose clothes of the pastel color were very beautiful.
?I would like to wear the clothes of a pastel color in spring.
I am black hair and the color of eyes is carrying out the near color deep-black. Therefore, it is because I suit a pastel color. Especially I like Pink in a pastel color. I think that the combination of the clothes of black hair and Pink is the strongest.
The combination of a pastel color, a black combination or a pastel color, and white, or which do you like?

While is still one of best websites to get connected with Freelancers and to find thousands of different services or Gigs, Fiverr can also be a place to waste your time and money, sometimes.
The customer's support of Fiverr is well organised and responds quick enough on any queries you might have, plus is helpful in most of the cases should any friction or a dispute between the seller (the freelancer) and the buyer(the customer) occur.In this blog post, I will try to summarise the important things you should always consider before you purchase any Gig on Fiverr.
These small tips are to help the users on Fiverr, especially the ones who are new to this famous marketplace.I'll share part of my experience as a customer on Fiverr and I hope these to be useful for you, because they are useful for me.The same Tips apply to any other micro jobs website, that offer similar or same services as on Fiverr.
Finding a Service
The first thing is to find what you look for.This is as easy as pie.You can search by using a keyword for the service you require in the provided Search bar and then narrow down your search results to find exactly what you are looking for.This means that except applying the provided filters when searching for your keyword or keywords, you should consider few other important "details".
Tip 1: Finding the right Service or Gig
The second thing is to find exactly what you look for.
If you need a new article written for your Blog, do you know what is the difference between PR article and
SEO article?Are you sure what is the difference between engaging, original content and spun content ?If
you are not certain then you better spend some time to clear up this matter, because this will cost you time
and money in future.And disappointment, sometimes.Not to mention the headaches....
What you can do is to check yourself on the Internet the unknown,"tricky" terms and to be clear about
what you need.
Make a research before you order a Gig.
The next thing is to make a thorough comparison between the Gigs that came as results of your search and read carefully the details mentioned there.My advice is to compare as many Gigs as
possible.This is essential for most of the Gigs anyway and will help you not only to find the best deal, but
also to avoid some misunderstandings in future.And the third, but the most important is-before
you order-always ask the freelancer about some details which are interesting for you, but
not specified, or unclear.Never assume.Ask.Is advisable to do this every time, when you plan to work with
a freelancer you have never hired before.
See two examples to understand better why do you need to make some Research before you order a Gig.Do you really want these Gigs?
Example 1 (a Gig): "I will give you a massive collection of PLR articles for 15 $"
Do you Really want to spend money for such a service?This is something you can can find easily by
typing "PLR articles collection" in Google.
Cost=0 $.Advantage-you don't feel disappointed to find that a third of the amazing collection is pretty much
the same, but with slightly different names...
Example 2 (a Gig): "I will catapult your site ranking with my high PR SEO authority links"
How can such service be expected to be successful if there are hundreds of people who will pay for the
same?Some of them for the same keywords, so they are competitors...
So when can I expect to see the results of such a Gig?Never?Most probably.
Finding a Freelancer
In some cases working with a freelancer with a "high reputation", but with the wrong freelancer with high reputation, could be more disappointing than working with a "newbie", simply because of the expectations.And sometimes- because of the price. Or because of both.
Usually freelancers with "high reputation" will charge you more, sometimes 10 times more for the same
service compared with a "new" freelancer who has no reviews yet and has just posted a Gig.Take your
time and read the details in the Gig and Ask.Ask questions before you purchase.Also have a look at the
reviews left from the other customers, but still don't trust all of them 100%.Why?You can see later below.
Tip 2 : Finding the right Freelancer
The first thing is not to find what you look for, but to find exactly what you need.
Do you need an article written by educated native English speaker or someone who states "my English is
very good".In any case you can't be certain, even if the given location is the UK, Canada, Australia or the
USA, first because many foreigners will offer you service from the country they live in (i.e. a native french
who lives in the USA, for example etc.) and second-because some of the freelancers use proxies when
registering on Fiverr.How to find the "correct" freelancer or the person who will complete
the work as you expect it.First- see the details stated in the Profile of the Freelancer.These are not always
true, but might give you an idea what to expect.Having read such information before purchasing a Gig will
most probably save time for both sides.Time spent for revisions, disputes, cancellations, complaints, etc.
which unfortunately happens sometimes.
Ask questions before you purchase.Get in touch and communicate with the person from the other side
and clarify all the points that are important for you, but maybe not very clearly stated in the Gig announcement.
There are many positive outcomes from the communication, for both sides.For instance, you might find
that even if the person from the other side is not the best choice for your present project you can use his or
hers' other services or gigs some time in future and to build a professional relation.Some of the freelancers clearly state at the bottom of their Gigs "Better just drop me a message before you order"
what you should use always use when you deem necessary or have any doubts.
See two examples to understand why do you need to make some Research and Communicate before you order a Gig.Do you think this Freelancer is good for this task?Do you really want these Gigs?
Example 3 (A freelancer's portfolio): Hi, I'm XXX , a social shouter from USA. I love to visit my social media
site daily and also love to inspire my fans and followers ... I work for startup company, webmaster, service
provider, agency & research company to reach their global audience"
When I asked for some more details about a gig I received a message that was definitely from a
freelancer, with extremely bad English, who I wouldn't hire to do a promotional campaign for my business on
any of the social sites....
This is only one of the many examples I have to give a practical example why the communications are
useful as a customer on Fiverr or on any of the micro jobs sites.
Example 4 (a Gig) : "I will send you unlimited traffic tool for lifetime use"
Example 5 (a Gig) : "I will send unlimited traffic to your website for a month"
Example 6 (a Gig) :"I will increase your Alexa Rank"
Would you like to spend money over a free tool, which someone will use to provide you "unlimited traffic to
your site" of just to sell you a gig with a link to the free tool for unlimited traffic?Me-not.
By asking question prior ordering the Gig you will be able to clarify what exactly you are about to order
and to avoid misunderstandings and disappointments.And maybe-even to save some money and avoid
order cancellations and bad comments in the reviews section.
Don't be Naive and Don't Trust the Users reviews 100%
Why I don't trust some users' reviews?Why you shouldn't trust some of the users' reviews on Fiverr?
Once you have chosen the right gig and the right freelancer and have your order delivered it's time to
review it and provide a feedback.
Hold On.There's no rush.
The true and fair feedback Is important for both sides.
You can provide your review in two weeks time.Or even later.Providing a fair and the true feedback is not
urgent thing, but is very important.I don't trust many (I would say most) of the provided reviews for freelancers, because the
Fiverr's system is "pushing" the customers to give a feedback or to review and rate the delivered order
straight after the delivery.Attention: This is not necessary.
See two examples to understand why I don't trust some users' reviews.Do you really want these Gigs?
Example 7 (a Gig) : "II will create 100, High DA, permanent backlinks for you"
Example 8 (a Gig) : "I will create high PR backlinks, exclusive SEO Iinks"
Maybe not-if the links are not from relevant sites and are part of some spammy comments will be deleted in few days time.Also- you can't manually publish text in 20,000 or 100,000 places in three days time, even few hundreds are too many.High DA stays for High Domain Authority, but many of the customers dosn't know that except the DA the other important thing is the PA of the site where they are posted.So you can get for 5 bucks sometimes hundreds and thousands of links created with GSA or similar software from various websites,which will not help you except if your site is competing with Wikipedia and the PA of your site is much, much lower than the PA of the sites where the links come from,which is not necesarily the case. Also some of the freelancers don't really want you to know that high DA of a website doesn't mean that the PA of the webpage from the same website will be also high,hence the links' quality is zero.It's a different thing to get a link from a high authority website such as Tumblr's main pages(high DA,high PA) and another-from a blog post on one of the thousands Tumblr's pages with (high DA,but low PA).You might be surprised,but I had a chat with some "experts" who offer the above services or Gigs and they also don't know (or at least seems so) the difference.How about the PR?You din't know that the Page Rank doesn't exist anymore.Well-it doesn't, but there are hundreds of people who still offer a service to improve the PR of your website and to boost your Google ranking.Even if the PR is not criteria for measurement anymore.How then to trust such offers and the reviews how good these offers are? Same for the freelancers who are taking advantage of the lack of knowledge of the mass of the customers who are their clients and later give them "excellent"appraisals.I don't know about you,but I don't.
You might be surprised,but I had a chat with some "experts" who offer the above services or Gigs and they also don't know (or at least seems so) the difference.How about the PR?You din't know that the Page Rank doesn't exist anymore.Well-it doesn't, but there are hundreds of people who still offer a service to improve the PR of your website and to boost your Google ranking.Even if the PR is not criteria for mesurement anymore.How then to trust such offers and the reviews how good these offers are? Same for the freelancers who are taking advantage of the lack of knowledge of the mass of the customers who are their clients and later give them "excellent"appraisals.I don't know about you,but I don't.
These were again some real examples and of course there are many other things about the quality of the links and the link building, but this post is not about it.The important thing is to know what you order, to confirm with the freelancer you are both on the
same page and then-to go for an order, or simply to choose somebody else for your project.
Tip 3: Check Freelancer's Reputation, but Don't rely much on Freelancer's Reputation
How important is the reputation of the freelancers?
Would you hire a freelancer who have a good reputation (let's say "Level 2" freelancer ), but the last 5
opinions are "Cancelled order.The freelancer didn't deliver on time" ?Me-probably not.Especially if I have
something urgent to be done.Same when I see few comments in row something explaining the reason
why the clients were disappointed.
In this case the initially good reputation of the freelancer doesn't really matter for me.Maybe it would if
there was a reply from the freelancer with some reasonable comments.
Would you hire a freelancer for a project which would cost something around 500 $, but have no reviews
and ratings at all?I wouldn't.
But I had purchased many times 5$ -10 $ Gigs from freelancers who have no reviews at all, because the
"newbie" freelancer had offered a good explanation, have a better motivation (which is the most important)
and sometimes had offered a better price, compared with the price of a gig offered by an "experienced"
freelancer.And at the end-with most of the "new" (at that time) freelancers I still work from time to time and I'm very happy of the services they have provided and still provide for me.But I also have worked few times with some of the best promoted freelancers on Fiverr and I was disappointed, because I found later the provided Gigs or Services are not as good as they were expected or promoted.And I don't mean a project for a Logo, or a Motto.I mean gigs which you can only properly appraise in few weeks or few months time.So, for me the reputation of any freelancer is very important, but not essential.
Why not to rely on Freelancers reputation too much ?
In the very beginning when I started using Fiverr I purchased a gig from a Freelancer named Ozzieuk who claimed that will catapult my rankings with my high pr seo authority links.This gig was a complete disappointment from few points of view:
1.The freelancer's reputation was high enough to hire him,but later on I found this was a mistake;
2.Mine expectations about the effectiveness of this Gig were very high , since I relied on the opinions from others ,written in previously posted reviews;
3.The result was 0 despite of my high hopes;
This example is valid still today, because the reputation of the above mentioned freelancer is still high, which probably means he still manages to do his business somehow.I guess the only reason for this is the claim that the expected results will come in few months time, when it's not possible to review your previously given feedback.
Providing a Feedback by using Customer Reviews
There are many gigs for content promotion, links building, high Page Rang, high Alexa Rank, the first position in Google, you name it...
Very long time ago I also failed number of times of providing correct and useful feedback, by just writing that the Gig was
Well, sometimes it was.As already mentioned before - you don't have to provide a feedback straight
after the delivery, when or if this is not applicable to the delivered gigs.Such "review" will be just misleading
for the other customers or clients.At least by the time someone else finds it.To be fair- at that time I trusted the reviews given
by other clients and all of them were also just "Excellent".So the final line is - if you provide any review and
this is not valid for Fiverr only , try to make it not only fair but also useful for the others. Otherwise
your review will be good for nothing and only the cheaters or the "bad freelancers" will be the ones to a good advantage of such a review.Which automatically means that some other customers of the same freelancer will get into the trap...again..and again...
Take your time when publish your review.
I don't trust reviews and ratings which just state "Excellent" in most cases.They are not reliable
enough for me.Probably because they were written just straight after the delivery, but many gigs can't be
appraised immediately and many of them can't be appraised with just "Excellent".Such reviews are
useless and wrong to me.I believe you would agree with me.
Tip 4: Provide a Fair Feedback by using Customer Reviews
There are good freelancers and bad freelancers.There are good customers and bad customers too.
By honestly rating your order you will not only provide a useful information for the other customers on
Fiverr but will help to the services to get better in future.
Freelancers who can't deliver what has been agreed or fail repeatedly to deliver Gigs with a good quality
would have less chances to stand the competition in Fiverr.
On the other hand-if you are happy with the services or the gigs that you have received-don't hold back
and share it.Appreciate the work of the good freelancer as well-I always provide a tip when the delivered Gig is
with some unexpected "Bonus" or delivered in shorter time and still above my expectations.If you find
helpful-you can share some info about the gig in some of your social networks-this will help the freelancer to
get more clients.
I trust reviews and ratings which have some more useful details as a feedback and also- a reply from the
freelancer as well, just after the review given by the client.
Fiverr is a great place to find and order some nice gigs, but as it is on any other microjobs websites,
sometimes it can be quite tricky to find exactly what you look for and the right freelancer for a certain
project.I haven't used Fiverr for the last few weeks, because I personally find AwsomeWeb is a way better
for me as a freelancer, but I hope the above tips will help you in your decision, when choosing the best
person do work with or the most suitable gig for your purposes, regardless if you work with
Freelancer,Fiverr,GigBucks or other website, providing Microjobs services.
Feel free to share your opinion or advices in the comment section below if you agree or disagree with my
points of view.Or just join my group or PM me here on Notcy.

It is a great phone, but the memory is very bad: 1.5 MB, and only 500KB is for photo and music storage, the other MB is for downloaded things. Does somebody know if there are memory expansion chips?
why does my phone can't download MP3 songs when in fact in the specs it was stated that it can. Please help me........
I love my phone but it doesnt have bluetooth which bugs me. when i bought the phone it said you can download music from your pc 2 your phone or put stuff from your phone on your pc please telll me if you know how!
umm can we transfer msgs to our pc from this phone???
plzzz reply!
it does hav an usb port!
Can you upgrate the W375 memory? I need it .THe phone is alritght, i like the camera and the internet browser but y bother puting memeory on there if it is only 1.5 megabytes, that isn't even one song!
The phone looks cute and I love that it comes in all the different colors, but the fact that it doesn`t have Bluetooth puts me off it!
I need the software so i can download all info from tthe phon.
I have no screan and i just want to take out my contact info .
Can someone help me with the software
This is great and all but i don't like it,it has no good features(blue tooth)and it cant even hold real ring tones...so i dont like it
just bought this phone 3 days ago. so saisfied with it and loving it more everyday. reasonably priced, simple and so basic. just what you need when all you want is a phone. i have a digicam with 1gb memory card. i have a laptop which does practically everything, saves everything etc. the camera, browser, calendar, radio in this phone are such big big BONUSES!
if looking for bluetooth, high res cam, huge memory and all other features....look somewhere else. this is just like your old sweet mama...no frills, just the familiar stuff you're comfortable with plus some lovely perks.
Quality phone but texting is too slow. shame because it has some nice features and looks really good
i bought it from argos for £50 on t-mobile, it looks good- more expensive than it is. overall it has good feel to it but the texting isn't easy compared to nokia etc
Hi ampo
There is an option in settings where u can set whether u want to answer when u flip open or see who is calling and then press answer button
Just one Question...
When u recieve a call, you flip open the phone. THEN what happens? does the call get answered before you have the chance to see who's calling? or can you see the number of the caller and then decide whether you want to accept or decline the call?????
This is really buggin me so PLZ answer.
Hey Guys =]
I bought this phone for what £30?
For that amount of money I think Its good, What do you expect when you pay that amount of money?
Its got a camera, I was doubtful about the camera as my previous motorola's camera wasnt very good quality but this one is better. The FM Radio is so so clear, you can either have it on loudspeaker or use headphones.
I feel the front display of it is interesting, it flashes up a blue envelope when you have a text message, then a circle flashes green when you have a call.
Ok so it has a small memory.. no video capture.. but that doesnt bother me, you can text easily, make phone calls easily and theres a good quality FM radio.. so for £30 it was a good buy for me. =]
W375 is not that cool as marketed. V3 series are better in design, this one looks very heay as a rock in hand.
The TFT screen is not as attractive as it should be, it does give pain to eyes while if used for more then 10 min. The resolution of the screen is 128x160, with good color contrast, but the distance between each pixel can be observed clearly as with CSTN disply. I think is not TFT but some kind of technology similar to that of Samsung.
W375 keypads are good, and can be used with accuracy, its not slow responsive. Although the games included in this phone are not good at all.
It has extreamly low memory 1.5 MB !
It cannot run Java, cannot capture video, cannot play MP4, nor can be used as MP3 player. But the FM is real good.
In short you can do the following:
1- Calls
2- FM radi0
3- Image capture (640x480 max) [having low memory you cannot capture much pics]
4- Change ringtones (can use mp3 as ringtone)
5- connect it via USB to your PC (as capacity is 1.5 MB you canot do much with it)
6- Calender, Alarm, and other utilities
Thats all.
This is the cheapest usefull set Motorola is offering. W220 has no comparison and the price difference is very very low.
So if you want to have a cheap clamshell (not dirt cheap), go for W375.

John Gamble and the St. Neots Paper Mill - Norman Cowell
A comparison between the history of John Gamble's connection with the St. Neots paper mill as revealed by the archive at St. Ives, with the later part of the account which he himself wrote and published. Substantial differences show up and it is, perhaps, not overstating to say that Gamble presents himself in a light which is not totally justified by the facts. With details of Gamble's association with the Fourdriniers and his relationship with Matthew Towgood.

We had a bye week this week. It was an interesting and relaxing weekend. We watched our upcoming competition online, went to a BBQ with friends, Sat. evening church and a LONG relaxing Sunday. It's the last for a few months, so we enjoyed it!
This is usually the weekend where I would try to squeeze in as many "fall family memories" as possible, pumpkin carving, apple picking, bonfire etc. Now that the boys are older, they enjoy the lazy days just as much as us!

In Short Girls, Vietnamese-American sisters Van and Linny are estranged, but have agreed to travel to the home of their father to help him celebrate his new American citizenship. He is obsessed with his inventions, like the Luong Arm, designed to help short people, like his daughters and thinks citizenship will help him with his work. The novel takes us through the sisters' lives from careers and romances to life with their father, now deceased mother and other family members.
I enjoyed this novel. It wasn't at all what I was expecting. Even though it was mostly a serious book, there was more humour and the overall tone of the book was much more light-hearted than I had expected. The authors presents the story in two distinct voices. One for Van, the somewhat stuffy married lawyer. One of Linny, the less established and flighty sister. This approach outlined the differences in the sisters quite well and successfully brought forward the story.
I learned a bit about the Vietnamese culture despite the fact that the family is very Americanized. I loved the conflict that ensued as they struggled with their culture, family life and finding out who they really wanted to be. The other thing I really loved about the book was how the characters and their relationships with each other changed and grew over the course of the story. This was especially true of the relationship between Van and Linny.
Besides Van and Linny, I really enjoyed reading about their father, Mr. Luong. I think he equated being short with being inadequate somehow. His inventions were an attempt to change that. He was so passionate about them but really wasn't taken that seriously. It was nice to see that change (especially from his daughters) over the course of the novel.
If I'm not mistaken, there was one outstanding issue left unresolved in the book. To avoid exposing a spoiler, I'll just say that I found it refreshing to have an unknown at the end of the book, especially since it made sense to me to leaving the reader hanging.
I think this book would make a pretty good selection for book clubs. Many of the issues and themes (family relationships, estrangements, immigrants, inadequacies) would provide groups with plenty to discuss.
Recommended. I'd gladly read another book by this author.

Super interesting and very well done with all sorts of media elements such as photographs, original footage, interviews, etc.
I really liked this intimate look into the couple's empire and home life. I particularly enjoyed learning about the Eames' interaction with other geniuses of their time such as Herman Miller, and also the chapter about Ray and her huge contribution to the enterprise.
A must see !
A not-too-quickly paced overview of the careers of Ray and Charles Eames, peering into many aspects of their works (design, film, photos, etc.) and lives (starting their office, their marriage, and other aspects of their relationship). Informative, and entertaining too. I wish there was an Eames-like office around here to work in.
A fascinating look at the careers of Charles and Ray Eames, not only focusing on their famous chair designs, but expanding outward to the later years of their designs and work with film. Much more than I expected!
If you are looking for whom to blame for those dreadful plastic chairs, well, look no further.
I always assumed that Charles and Ray Eames, the designers of the famous 'Eames Chair', were brothers. Wrong - they were husband and wife, design collaborators, and business partners. This documentary is less about design and more about the personalities of the Eames', the gender relationships, and the character of the post-Second World War decades.

Students from a Daventry school spent a day learning skills they can apply in the world of work with two railway firms.
At the end of last year, Daventry UTC announced a new partnership with Network Rail, enabling students to experience real world engineering skills, challenges and career opportunities.
Last week, students from Daventry UTC spent a whole day working with Network Rail and ABC Electrification on a range of exciting activities designed to stretch the student's technical and problem solving skills and to bring their learning to life. This included various activities from designing safe housing for launching an egg, interactive health and safety demonstrations on Network Rail's Safety Bus used to train their own workforce and a fun personal protective equipment obstacle course where students were pitched against each other in a race against time to complete a given task.
Joe Dunckley, the UTC's assistant principal said: "The workshops which Network Rail and ABC Electrification organised for our students are exactly what UTCs are all about.
"As well as studying for their GCSEs and A levels in classroom settings, our students have the opportunity to spend time with professionals from world renowned companies. These opportunities give our students the unique chance to develop and enhance their opportunities of gaining an apprenticeship with our industrial partners and within the engineering sector."
Daventry UTC is now looking to extend the opportunity of learning from its industry partners to other local schools and the local community.
Engineering teacher Edward Perkins said: "We are now activity forging links with local companies, identifying what they require from apprentices and training our students to meet these needs. This is backed up by placing our students in suitable work experience placements to enable our partners to enhance their skills and enable them to fit in to the workplace on completion of their course.
"UTCs help to broaden students experience and expose them to different industries giving our students the unique opportunity to gain qualifications and industrial experience at the same time, allowing them on completion to be fully prepared and ready for the workplace."
Local students and parent wising to find out more about Daventry University Technical College can visit its open evening on Wednesday March 23. More information can be found on the UTC's website www.daventryutc.com

Or so... I was a Primark virgin... until I visited this hell of a shop in Essen nearly two weeks ago with my good friend Melinda. I mean, I really like it, because they have some cheap but pretty clothes :D But there were sooooo many people oO We had to wait 30 minutes or so to get a changing room. The queue was enormous, through the whole storey... I sorted some thing out beforehand to avoid waiting a second time, because you're only allowed to take eight pieces with you .___. If you have more, you have to get back to the end of the line and wait again! Ridiculous...
So I this is what I chose in the end:
That's a blouse on the right ^___^" I bought the same in creme, but I wore it the next day, so no pic of it!
Yay, mint shorts *___* And a Darth Vader T-shirt.. the Star Wars fan inside me couldn't resist
even, if it's for men :D But it XS, so it fits quite well.
I wanted a lavender and another white blouse, but I thought, I'd need my money for shoes, which I planned wearing on my Abigala. Unfortunately, the shop, where I looked for them didn't sell them D: So it was in vain :(
I hope you have a great evening and thanks for reading,

Dow Chemical Company is to produce a hi-tech fabric wrap for the Olympic Stadium, it has been announced.
The company, an Olympic sponsor, is funding the wrap which was controversially scrapped to save £7 million after the Government's October spending review. Savings of £20 million had been called for.
The fabric wrap will have 336 individual panels, each of which will be about 25 metres high and 2.5 metres wide. It will be made of lightweight polyester fabric with a low-density polyethylene coating – requiring fewer raw materials to manufacture. It will also be up to 35 per cent lighter and have a lower carbon footprint compared to conventional materials. Installation is set to begin in spring 2012.
Other sustainable elements of the wrap include UV-curable inks replacing conventional inks to cut emissions during the printing process. It will also include recycled post-industrial materials while the hardware used to hang the wrap will be recycled in Europe after the Games.
The wrap was designed to provide an eye-catching and colourful curtain around the steel girders, breeze blocks and seating of the £486 million Olympic Stadium.
The Dow Chemical Company is a Worldwide Olympic Partner and the official chemistry company of the Olympic Movement.
London 2012 chairman Lord Coe said the wrap would be used in a "sustainable way" adding: "The stadium will look spectacular at Games time and having the wrap is the icing on the cake."
London 2012 said it received "significant interest" from the private sector to supply the wrap, triggering a formal tender announcement in February.
Olympics minister Hugh Robertson said he was "delighted" the private sector had stepped in as savings were being sought from the £9 billion Olympic project. "At the comprehensive spending review last autumn, the Government could see the benefit of the wrap but did not feel the taxpayer should pay for it as we looked to make savings across the project," he said.
International Olympic Committee (IOC) guidelines do not allow branding in venues, so the wrap will not display sponsor logos during the Games but reinstating it is a high-profile deal.
More than four billion people worldwide are set to see the 80,000-seat venue when they tune in for the opening and closing ceremonies plus the athletics competitions.
Keith Wiggins, Dow UK's managing director, said the company's focus on innovation and scientific excellence would be behind "every stitch" of the wrap.
The wrap design was launched in November 2007 at a packed event on the 100 metres straight at the Olympic Park in Stratford, east London. Organisers billed it as one of the iconic global images of the Games.
The wrap would come complete with graphic colours, mosaics, projected animations and Olympic-related images that could change. It could also offer some shelter to spectators if it rained. They promised a variety of options from projecting the flags of competing nations or the pictograms used to represent each sport.
In light of this, the axeing immediately sparked criticism that it would leave the key venue looking unfinished while stadium architect Rod Sheard warned the wrap was an "integral part" of the stadium.
Talks had even begun with a firm which could turn the fabric into bags which could be sold after the Games, organisers said at the original stadium launch.
George Hamilton, vice president of Dow Olympic Operations, pledged that a sustainable post-Games use for the wrap would be found and investigations about different options have started. No decisions have been announced.
"Our goal is to provide solutions that help make the Olympic Games more sustainable, safer and that will help improve performance. We're providing this wrap as a sustainable solution for the Games and we look forward to celebrating its completion with Olympic fans around the world," he said.
Sheard said he was pleased the wrap was finally going ahead as "it will provide a clear and memorable identity to the stadium". "The wrap completes the enclosure of the structure and gives form to the lightweight frame that supports the elegant white roof."
