It was mostly a grey July day at Lord's yesterday. Cold too; two of England's fielders called for long-sleeved sweaters in the third over of the morning, only to be thoroughly warmed up two balls later when Graeme Smith, on seven, misjudged a sharplyrising ball from Jimmy Anderson and dollied a catch off the splice to Ian Bell at point.
Compared to the carnival atmosphere of the previous two days, when England's batsmen played with flash and dash to score 593 for 8 declared, the crowd was quiet and attentive. England broke through but in the sunlight – which would envelop Lord's in the evening – South Africa fought back, led by the example of Ashwell Prince. Then England came back again after Anderson did a passable imitation of Gordon Banks to catch AB de Villiers at mid-on.
That was one of few electric moments – Prince's hundred was another – but there was hardly a dull one. Of course it helped that England were doing much better than expected, but if Test cricket is to be drowned in an excess of Twenty20, what we will be losing is the example of Prince, the first non-white South African to score a hundred at Lord's. He kept his head while all around him were losing theirs.
Prince is a stocky and compact figure, a left-hander who said: "Although the pitch was still good for batting it was hard work playing [Monty] Panesar out of the rough. But I had a lot of confidence coming after two decent scores in county games."
He came in when South Africa had lost three wickets for 47 and he refused to be intimidated by his surroundings. He slashed at balls his coach might have preferred him to leave, but his luck was in and most of his 13 fours were from textbook shots, especially off his legs.
He was finally out, slashing again, caught by the wicketkeeper Tim Ambrose off Ryan Sidebottom when he was 101. By then the score had moved on to 245, although it still represented dire straits for South Africa, who were all out two runs later, 346 behind.
Prince was at the crease for 294 minutes and played the kind of innings that will become a memory if Test cricket is truly in terminal decline. The reason is that it takes time – ideally five days – for the topsy-turvy quality of the game to assert itself. Already this series has shown that expectations provide a poor guide to the reality of events, and no one will be more conscious of this than Graeme Smith.
The South Africa captain speaks freely of his own recently acquired maturity. This is no longer considered a controversial assessment. Smith's days of trying to establish mastery over Michael Vaughan by referring to him as "queer" seem to have been replaced by a more dignified silence in the middle. Smith is still on a learning curve and he is enduring a steep stretch of the journey here.
Since their readmission to Test cricket in 1992 South Africa have won three times here, each one by humiliatingly wide margins – 356 runs, 10 wickets, and an innings and 92 runs. Their expectations in this game were astonishingly high. These had been encouraged by Mickey Arthur, South Africa's coach, who further fuelled the idea that England were underdogs by emphasising their lack of pace and suspect middle order.
True, Smith had started the game with fewer illusions than his coach. He injured a hamstring playing in the Indian Premier League and had no time in the middle before the game against Middlesex last weekend. "Recently it's been a battle with injuries," he said. "It's going to be a challenge." To be frank, he has failed to meet it so far. (Both Smith and Jacques Kallis, incidentally, look rather heavier than super-fit international cricketers ought to.)
The unexpected quality of England's performance has set the series off to a promising start. Normally, England have to recover from their defeat at Lord's and establish parity in later Tests as South African players grow weary and begin to choke. But England against South Africa is one of Test cricket's most admired products: "It's really up there with the Ashes," says Vaughan.
After two days in the field, Arthur was apologetic: "We haven't delivered. We're aware of it. England did not see the best of us." He suggested that the explanation was that this young team – only Smith, Mark Boucher and Makhaya Ntini played in the last South African team at Lord's – behaved like tourists, open-mouthed at the sight of Lord's full to capacity. Butboxers would have a different way of explaining their poor performance: they left the fight in the gym.

We went to this art gallery, Collectors for a talk on the psychoanalsis of art in conjuction with an exhibition of work called Confabulation. This pix is a shot of low-level red lasers emanating from a circle arrangement of emitters. With a smoke machine and the light turned off, we got this wondrous 3D, star-trekish effect. Stunning, especially when you walk towards the source.

Name calling is insulting. Several forums don't permit it. In fact, as a moderator for a third party publisher myself, it would be grounds for a warning.
But... Back to the topic...
Contact the retailer first, and let them know. It actually IS their fault. Target, Bestbuy, and Walmart are THE WORST places to buy ANYTHING related to gaming.
If they will not assist you, contact Sony at (800) 345-SONY
@CaptainAlbator: I remember you well, and I'm shocked I saw posting like that from you. I was here under a different PSN ID a couple of years ago. Your posts here were in blind defense of Sony. I love PlayStation products just as much as anyone else. But the more work a customer needs to do to find satisfaction from a product purchased, the more at fault the manufacturer and retailer is. No matter what you're buying, you expect it to work. This is not similar to a flat tire on a Mercedes (Which, by the way, would be covered). This is more like a power window not working.
Anyways, take that console back. This is NOT Sony's usual... and as someone who owns both consoles, I can tell you that you made the right choice in consoles.
DO not exchange it at Target. Get your money back and purchase at GameStop or via Amazon. They both have excellent return policies (within reason) and their bundles remain up to date and the boxes are securely stored.

Cons: Sounds better when hooked to external speakers. On most movies you get an annoying almost vibrating effect. I have a pair of $60 speakers and a $75 stereo, and it works great, no delays or anything. Its running off of the audio out, not digi as well.
Other Thoughts: Had some issues getting my xbox 360 to connect to it. 1080P isn't fully scaled right for some reason, on a slightly lower resolution it is much much more crisp. Not that noticeable during games though.READ FULL REVIEW

Tyler Ramsey
|Tyler Ramsey
|Background information
|Cincinnati, Ohio, United States[1]
|Guitar, harmonica, piano, percussion
|Echo Mountain
|Associated acts
|Band of Horses
Tyler Ramsey is a singer-songwriter from Asheville, North Carolina, who is best known as the lead guitarist for the band Band of Horses.
Ramsey's eponymous debut album was released in 2005. His second album, A Long Dream About Swimming Across the Sea, was released on January 15, 2008, on Echo Mountain Records.[2]
In November 2007, Stereogum singled him out for their "Artist to Watch" series, describing his sound as reminiscent of both Ryan Adams and Red House Painters. Summing up his musical style, the blog stated "He's sad, but more outwardly expressive: There's a ragged blues to Ramsey's voice as well as his guitar playing."[3]
Ramsey's third album, The Valley Wind, was released on September 27, 2011.
Band of Horses[edit]
Bill Reynolds, bassist for Band of Horses, invited Ramsey to visit him and the rest of the band in South Carolina. Tyler quickly hit it off with lead singer Ben Bridwell, who asked him to open for the band on their fall tour of 2007 and come on board as their new guitar player.
Commenting on the opportunity to play both his solo material and with Band of Horses, Ramsey said, "This is going to be an amazing tour. To have the opportunity to play solo, as well as with such a great band, I really couldn't ask for more."[4]
Ramsey has become an integral member of Band of Horses. For their third album, Infinite Arms, he wrote the track "Evening Kitchen" on which he and Bridwell share the lead vocals. He also co-wrote three other tracks. Ramsey wrote and shared vocals with Bridwell on the song "Everything's Gonna Be Undone", from the band's fourth album, Mirage Rock, on which he co-wrote the songs "Shut-In Tourist" and "Heartbreak On the 101".

D&N Tiling recently carried out renovations to my Laundry, Bathroom and Powder room, Daniel organised the demo guys to come in and strip these rooms which, they did quickly and efficiently without any fuss. Daniel then prepared all the walls and floors ready for tiling, this included stripping all the plaster off the walls, repairing walls after the plumber had finished installing his pipes and then screeding them level and smooth ready for priming and sealing the walls and floors. Daniel did an exceptional job using 300 x 600 porcelain tiles from floor to celling, he finished the corners with colour matched Tenex Epoxy to give an amazing smooth and rounded finished to all mitred edges. Daniel also uses a clip system which clamps the tiles down and keeps the edges flush which leaves the walls and floor totally flat and smooth. I would recommend Daniel to anyone who wants a high class job done and done to the highest possible standard. Regards Paul
Hi Dan, Had a good look at it this morning and I gotta say...Wow you did an exceptionally fine job, really happy with the finish. I only regret I didn't find you for when we did our tiling inside our house. I am truly impressed mate and grateful thanks again.
A very professional and tidy job done. Would highly recommend D&N Tiling to anyone needing good quality workmanship.

D & N Tiling did a great job on our 86 sqm of tiling to our living areas and did so in a timely and neat manner.

Found Daniel & his team to be very professional, efficient and reliable. We were very happy with their work, nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them . We have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for a good tiler.

Skip to comments.Anyone Else Getting Jerked Around Re-finacinga a Mortgage? (Vanity)
Posted on 07/29/2012 9:09:44 AM PDT by dagogo redux
Has anyone else here had the experience recently of having one of the large banks jerk them around on a home re-finance application?
Weve been at it for months now with Chase, with a constant, ongoing drip, drip, drip of requirements, including updates on many previously-submitted documents since the process has been going on now well into a new quarter. Discussing this with some friends this evening, it seems theyve had exactly the same hassles with Bank of America for over six months now, and have been through several rounds of re-submitting updated documents.
Our friends and us both have multiple personal and business accounts of longstanding with these banks, have always paid bills on time, have been loyal customers that have brought a lot of business to the banks, and have refinanced before with them a few years ago. All four of us have great incomes and excellent credit ratings. The pending mortgages are for about the same amount as the current mortgages, and are for a fraction of the appraised value of the house. In both cases the household incomes are many times what is needed, and the mortgages are backed with huge emergency funds.
Despite a sizable, non-refundable application fee, we and our friends are close to simply walking away from the application process, closing all our accounts, and taking our business to one of the remaining local banks. Talking to local bank representatives gets nothing more than evasiveness and excuses that don't seem to hold water. We are also on the verge of contacting the Better Business Bureau, bank regulators, as well as state and federal Congressional Reps.
We just refied with the credit union-—smoothe sailin
Have been trying to refi without success. I'm an ER doc, have stellar credit. Changed jobs 6 months ago and am now an independent contractor,can't get a mortgage even though my income easily covers it and I have people calling me every day trying to give me a job. Don't get it. I'm not trying to borrow MORE money, just change who the check goes to and save on interest. They went from giving a mortgage to anyone with a pulse to not wanting to give anyone a mortgage.
Dealing with banks is like wrestling with greased pigs, isn't it?
You only get a mortgage nowdays if you make minimum wage and have bad credit. Ask Jamie Gorelick or Barney Frank if you don't believe me.
Took me from Thanksgiving to March with a refinance from B of A — including about 3 weeks due to their error. It was ridiculous especially since I have near perfect credit score and no non- mortgage debt. They kept coming back with more requests.
I refinanced through Wells Fargo. No costs and I took my loan from 5.6% to a 15 year and 3.125%. Monthly payment actually dropped.
Now I need to Dave Ramsey it and pay it off early, keep mind my house is at 65% value of what I paid for it.
I've always had good luck with smaller mortgage brokers. Have never used a giant like B of A or Chase for other than a credit card.
I tend to use the advice of my realtor on these issues, regarding who they like to work with. I've never in my life heard a realtor recommend B of A or Chase, or any big bank for that matter. So then the trick becomes finding a realtor whose advice is worth it.
Yes, it took me 6 months to get financing on my house when I had good credit, 15 years of work history at the same company, money in the bank for the down payment, and also had just sold my house of 9 years in which I made every payment on time.
It seemed to me that the lenders were basically clueless as to how to determine good credit risks.
It's very tough to get a loan when you're self-employed.
Shoot, it ain't even HALF that much fun...
A loan officer told me the problem is the reversion to a policy termed "full docs" that staff is unfamiliar with and therefore awkwardly outline in requested submissions.
They are all terrified of fed ratings.
Just went with Pentagon Federal Credit Union -no problem
They have always been unfailingly prompt and courteous and very competitive with products rates etc
Anyone can find a credit union to join!
Just out of curiosity- is it your credit score?
Even if you pay all the bills on time etc having too many accounts and too much on credit line can ding you
Want to join the Pentagon Federal Credit union?
Here is how -
Note that "civilians" with no military or govt association can join by becoming members of qualifying organizations- even being a Red Cross volunteer
"They kept coming back with more requests."
I thought I might demand a similar set of "requests" of Chase: My rough draft to them follows:
Dear JPMorgan Chase
In considering our mortgage refinance application process, which is currently in progress with JPMorgan Chase, we would like to know more about the company we may do business with. Towards that end we have comprised a list of considerations we would like you to meet.
1. Internal memos related to stock performance since the 2007 high.
2. Internal memos related to the May, 2012 trading loss, and the Senate testimony of Mr. Jaime Dimon, CEO.
3. A ten year history of changes in credit ratings from Moodys, S&P, and Fitch.
4. Profit-Loss Statements during the same period.
5. Current balance sheet.
6. SEC Filings during the same period.
Personal credit ratings, and the last five federal tax returns, for all members of the Board of Directors and senior management.
A ten year history of Better Business Bureau ratings and complaints.
9. A ten year history of consumer and shareholder litigation.
Please mail these documents to our home address as soon as possible. Once reviewed, we will contact you periodically for further documents, as well as updates on the original ones.
see my post above on joining PFCU
We refinanced under the VRRL(Veterans Rate Reduction Loan) for VA loans.
It took us 30 days with USAA. We had to sign paperwork. Our initial loan was through them.
It was very, very pain free. We went from 6.5% to 3.4%. Saving $800 per month on our mortgage.
Are U daft? Why would you do business with a whore?
With USAA there was no out of pocket costs, no closing or appraisal fees. It didn't cost a us dime.
Recently re-fi'd from a 30yr to 15yr with Discover Loans. Appraisal was $400 outside of closing, no closing costs, 3.125%.
Process was simple and funded in less than two weeks.
Credit unions don't suck like big banks. Fees and hassles are pretty much non existent.
There are also (some) outstanding mortgage brokers out there that do much of the hard work for you. Just get a upfront disclosure of any fees.
We tried to refinance with Countrywide back in the day. Same experience - constant request for more/updated documents, calls for replacements of lost documents, constantly having to fax over things that had been faxed three or four times already - it was a nightmare. We asked them to give us a checklist of everything they would possibly need and we were told that such a thing didn't exist.
My husband is normally a very mild-mannered gent, but even he had enough. When they asked for the same document for the third time, he said, "Do you do this for a living? Because you really suck at it."
Needless to say, we took our business elsewhere. Smooth sailing with Farm Credit.
That's funny, I was wondering why anybody would want to go through Chase or B of A for anything right now? Let alone a refinance?
I understand that VA loans are constantly being barraged with refinace offers and are easier but to go through these large banks? It really has me baffled.
Bingo! Use a mortgage broker. If you don't get your loan he doesn't get his cut.
Additional comment to dagogo redux: Sorry you're going through this, but afterwards, a good policy is to avoid B of A altogether. Writing letters of complaint is just an extra waste of time at best. They're like Ernestine said of the phone company: "We don't care. We don't have to!"
I'd pull out immediately — of the process and the accounts — and leave them with the waste of time on their clocks and the egg on their faces.
I have other creative advice on dealing with banks, especially w/r/t mortgages, but I don't think you're THAT upset yet :)
We have had the same problem with a business loan.
PS, what I wrote applies to Chase as well. Avoid the big banks.
"Are U daft? Why would you do business with a whore?"
Good question, but the fact is that the whore took over Washington Mutual when it went bankrupt four years ago in the housing crisis, and we had had all our personal and business accounts and our original mortgage with WaMu for years.
We thought we'd see how the relationship went, and we were actually very pleased for the first three years. We felt like valued customers.
Our credit scores, for the person who asked, fluctuate a bit around the 800 level. Like the ER doc here, I'm in private practice, but I have been so for over three years, with a history of solid profit/loss statements comparable to the salaried income I had when we last refinanced. Wife's an ER nurse working two jobs. Our income and credit ratings are rock solid. Heck, my wife's even a minority! We simply don't see the grounds for this treatment, unless they simply want to deny us the loan in order to make a buck on our non-refundable application fee, or unless they're simply edging "The Rich" like us out of the picture in favor of more "valued" citizens.
Quicken Loans was a joke I quit. US Bank was simple and easy.
Other than an appraisal down 35% from one eight years ago that stopped the whole thing dead in it's tracks, nah.
" I have other creative advice on dealing with banks, especially w/r/t mortgages, but I dont think youre THAT upset yet :) "
Try me! :)
To everyone who has replied so far - Thank You! Some very helpful advice and insight here. Please keep it coming.
I've got one more updated profit/loss statement almost completed (no small task), and if submitting it tomorrow doesn't end this charade quickly we will be taking the advice offered here. Much appreciated.
I'll vote for the credit union route. A friend (Army Colonel) was getting jerked around by the BoA at the Pentagon and I convinced him to walk over to Navy FCU. He did, and closed on the refi three weeks later. PFCU is also good (I belong to both, and have two mortgages with NFCU).
You're in good company. Just google "chase bank mortgage complaints" and start reading. Here's one link:
If you've already paid fees, maybe you should get a lawyer to send them a letter to help hurry things along or to ask for your money back? And of course, complain to the BBB and anyone else who will listen. I don't trust the TBTF banks, and if I get another mortgage, I'll look for a small local one or a credit union or somesuch.
I had just relocated to Orlando to take a software development job at Disney, and I was in the process of buying a house. I just assumed that the Disney credit union would be better than any bank, so I went there and started the application process.
While looking over the paperwork, I discovered that they has a "demand feature", which I had never heard of (this is my 3rd house, and my 5th or 6th mortgage). It turned out that they could call in the entire mortgage at any time for any reason, or no reason at all. In practice, they could "cancel" the mortgage if interest rates went up, thus eliminating the advantage of a fixed-rate mortgage, which this was.
I later discovered that they also tied any other loans into the mortgage, so that if you were late with a car payment (for example) they could use that to change the terms of the mortgage or even cancel it.
I have no idea how common this is, but watch out for it.
For background; I do this for a living for one of the biggest lenders.
You are suddenly self employed; guidelines generally want a 2 year history.
Our banks private banking area might be able to do it depending on your asset base.
Your situation is one that drives us crazy as loan officers. You would be considered a a top flight borrower by us; but the guidelines don't have the flexibility they used to.
Underwriters are all running scared. Every file is audited after closing to make sure every letter of every bank statement is documented correctly.
The investors (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac who everyones loans go to); look for any loophole if a loan goes bad in the future. They will make the lender buy the loan back if any small piece of info is missing from application.
It kind of stinks to be doing my job at times right now!
Suggestion: Either they don't want to lend to you at a low interest rate knowing of the impending round of foreclosures currently accelerating across the country, or,they have bungled your paperwork. Go to the county recorder in your county and get all of the filings recorded for your property since you last re-financed. Ask yourself this question: "Who really has clear title to my property." You may need an experienced lawyer to help you answer that question. Check livingies dot wordpress dot com may help you as well. Good luck.
I just closed a refi deal last Thursday. Smooth as silk.
High credit rating greases the path.
Take it to another bank.
That is simply eye-opening. Although many of those complaints are from people with upside down or distressed situations, many are not, and even the ones that are sound like the same sort of tactics are becoming institutionalized as policy. Thanks for the link.
We ARE going from 30 to 15. :(
Yes, we are in the middle of a re-finance. They keep asking for more info. First, they wanted the tax forms, now they want all the attachments. Then they wanted to know why we had so many addresses in the past 5 years. (a work related move, then temporarily stayed with my mother during the move). Now, the representative is going on vacation! It is with CITI.
Credit ratings approx 800 for both of us has NOT greased the path. :(
Refied our place on Cape Cod (MA) through the CC5 Cents Bank and start to finish was under 3 weeks.
Banks used to hired high school graduates and then educate their own. The result was a personality type that loved numbers, perfection, and dual-control while handling other people's money.
In the 80's, banks started hiring MBAs. MBA's invented of the problems we have now.
Sorry to hear.
Pick another bank. Bankers want to refi.
BOA along with CITI were forced by the DOJ into an agreement to make all the loans they illegally foreclosed on using a robo-signer affordable by their borrowers.
This refinancing was to include reductions of interest rate, forgiveness of some debt, writing off certain additional fees of the foreclosure and extending the length of the loans.
I have gone through the endless requests for new docs, the lost docs and all the other hoops that Countrywide and BOA forced us to jump through.
One must remember that Countrywide was given over $45,000,000,000.00 to rewrite these loans and then BOA was given several billion more to make these loans affordable.
As part of the recent DOJ action, BOA has now been given several Billion again to refinance these loans.
It is because you are an independant contractor. My husband was making nice six figures in the early eighties when credit was tight and he couldnt buy or finance eaither because of IC status. in the 90's banks loved our IC status because we had many streams of income.
I have a credit rating that makes me a minor goddess in banking circles.
I had a heck of a time getting a TD BANK loan to close last year. They just kept balling it up.
However, they kept my loan, as well as processing it. It was in the contract.
Many other friends closed and their loans are immediately freddicmacked or fanniemayed.
If God is good to me, I will be paid off in a year.
I'm sure God will be good to you.
A high credit rating indicates a good character.
What's worse is that B of A quickly sold my loan to the Feds. I pay B of A but the govt owns it. At least I went from a 30 year to a 15 year, to pay it off very fast.

A Chat With Norm Augustinus, the Guy Holding the "Die de Blasio Die" Banner at Columbus Circle [Updated]
The carriage-horse debate has gotten rather heated lately, with animal rights activists and the de Blasio administration saying it's time for the practice to end, and carriage drivers, the Teamsters and Liam Neeson saying a ban on carriage horses will send the drivers into unemployment and the horses somewhere unpleasant. (NYCLASS, the main group pushing for a ban, says the horses can be saved from slaughter and sent to ASPCA-approved adoptive homes, if their owners will agree.)
A couple weeks ago, eccentric comedian and satirist Norm Augustinus decided to wade into the debate, with that eye-catching banner you see above. To answer all of your immediate questions: It's hyperbole, not an actual death threat, but Augustinus does really want the horses to stay. And yes, the NYPD has already been out talk to him.
Augustinus is originally from Detroit, but now lives on Central Park South. Besides his writing and comedy, he's best known for making a cartoon that depicted a drone vaporizing President Obama, Michelle Obama, Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi. (Augustinus claimed that the Secret Service had threatened him, telling him to pull the cartoon or face "dire consequences," although both Slate and Roll Call , who looked into the story, were skeptical that was true.)
In either case, Augustinus has been standing at Columbus Circle for two or three hours a day for the past month. The woman holding up the other end of the banner is his niece, Rosie. Lately they've discontinued use of the "die de Blasio" banner and gone with this one instead:

"The people have been wonderful," Augustinus tells us via email. "Every day food and drinks are either brought to me by locals with good intentions, or a delivery man will drop goodies off anonymously. I speak to at least 100-200 folks daily (even celebrities). The ones that I don't talk to, give me the thumbs up." Besides that, he says, "Taxis honk their horns and police turn on their lights and sound their sirens. This kind of reaction makes it very worthwhile."
He also says he's had other, weirder interactions: "One man I met asked if I would be interested in running for office. He said he had, 'Important friends that were watching me.' On Saturday a man came up to me and handed me an envelope filled with cash. He said, 'You've got friends here, Norman.' He hugged Rosie and me and got into a car and drove away. What kind of friends? I didn't take the cash, but I sure did thank him."
On Twitter, Augustinus recounts other experiences with his adoring (and not-so-adoring) public:
On 3/23 a man stopped & said he sold Coleman Camping equipment. He said he'd be happy to donate a portable toilet. Boy, that's convenience.

Yesterday a homeless man hung around me. My new banner says 'I Love Horse Shit!' For an hour he yelled "I LOVE HORSESHIT!" Kinda embarrasing
— Norm Augustinus (@normaugustinus) March 22, 2014
Augustinus says he's also had some interactions with the carriage-horse ban proponents: "Of course, there are people who want the horses banned in NYC, and they can be very vocal or demonstrative with regards to my work," he says. "I get physical threats, and scary phone calls daily, but that's what makes it fun." Rosie has occasionally been threatened as well, he says: "But I give anyone that approaches her the evil eye, and my new scraggly beard makes me look like a off-putting grown up."
During the week he held the "die de Blasio" banner, he says, "I was interviewed on the street by a couple of NYC detectives. They were pleasant and non-threatening, polite even. They said they were with a task force that worked with the Mayor's office. One of the detectives said I was "infamous." Probably because of my Obama drone cartoon, and the visit from the Secret Service. When the detectives were done, they thanked me and I never saw them again."
In any case, he says, the banner isn't a real threat, but more of a way to get the mayor's attention. "My Uncle Dick used to say, 'Die! Ump Die!' This is what was said to a baseball umpire when he made a bad call with regards to the game by the crowd in the stadium. Perhaps more people than I realize are not familiar with Die! Ump Die! I wanted to get the mayors attention. If you're in your house and someone is knocking on your door, you might hope they quit knocking and not answer it. But if they keeping knocking or knock louder you'll probably answer it (or calls the cops). I was just knocking louder. I'm a journalism grad. I knew the risks. It was on the edge. People loved that banner, too. Maybe they were living through me. I need 8 million New Yorker's to get on board and sack this stupidity."
Augustinus also praised de Blasio and the NYPD for allowing him and his banner to stay unjailed: "You know your mayor ain't half bad if the powers to be will let you stand in the best city in the world with a banner like that (and not arrest you). Rosie was with me when they questioned me. Free speech still exists in America. I can attest to that."
In the meantime, Augustinus is so enthused, he's even supporting the carriage horses in the bath:
I carved a NYC carriage horse out of a bar of Irish Spring in the bathtub. http://t.co/DBo8Fsz2tc #deblasiosnewyork pic.twitter.com/ssBa7EFXEr
— Norm Augustinus (@normaugustinus) March 23, 2014
The comedian says he'll remain at Columbus Circle "until the Mayor says: "We've decided to shelve this for another year so that we can study the implications of the ban further.'"
Update, 3:45 p.m.: NYCLASS spokeswoman Allie Feldman says her organization doesn't find Augustinus' antics particularly funny.
"We're appalled by his behavior," she writes in an email. "Can you imagine the kind of backlash animal advocates would get if we ever stood out there with a sign that said "Die carriage drivers"? Why is his behavior glorified in the paper?"
Feldman also points out that the carriage drivers haven't always been the model of decency, sending this 2012 video of one of them "harassing a group of volunteers with racist, homophobic vitriol as they peacefully handed out flyers on Central Park South:"

size & fit
Product Details
Formerly known as the slim-straight, the 1040 fit is for guys who like their jeans cut with a classic, straight fit that's always in style. For our denim fabric we went to the Kaihara mill, one of Japan's oldest and most renowned denim producers. Our washes are specially designed at Wonderland Concepts in Henderson, Kentucky, where every pair is hand-distressed for an authentic look. This wash is made to replicate the heavy fading that usually comes with about two years of frequent use, which is nice because you get the worn look without the bagginess that usually comes with that much wear. Go behind the design of our denim washes.

The Argento Chase here yesterday had something of the feel of a cup semi-final between, say, Derby County and Brighton. It might have been a good rollicking spectacle, but come the big day, the second-tier underdogs will surely be put in their proper place. But just don't express such views too strongly in front of Neil Mulholland, the trainerof Midnight Chase, who blew some fellow Gold Cup contenders apart in the three-and-a-quarter-miler over the Gold Cup course.
"We'll know whether this was his cup final or not when we're back here in March," he said. "Yes, neitherLong Run nor Kauto Star were here today, but they're just about the only ones who weren't, and look what he's done to the ones who were here. He was fifth in the Gold Cup last year and he's in the same sort of form now, except he's got stronger and more mature."
The previous three of Midnight Chase's victories had also come at what is clearly his favourite course – he has now won five times here. Sent into his trademark trailblazing role by Dougie Costello, he saw off his rivals with a relentless rhythm and accurate technique. Of those with Gold Cup hopes, Captain Chris was pulled up early after jumping markedly right, Diamond Harry was outpaced from the second last and Time For Rupert was outpaced before staying on into fourth.
It was left to the enigmatic Tidal Bay to chase Midnight Chase home, a well-held two-and-three-quarters of a length adrift. Costello gave his mount an excellent ride but made light of his contribution. "When you get a horse who loves a course and jumps it like he does," he said, "all you have to do is aim him and try to be the best passenger possible."
Midnight Chase is now judged a 16-1 shot for the Gold Cup by sponsors Betfred, cut from 40-1. Mulholland knows the pride of his 30-horse yard near Tiverton better than most trainers do their charges, as he rides the 10-year-old daily.
"OK," he did admit, "maybe we're not going to win a Gold Cup, but we will certainly enjoy being there to give it another try. And if we could finish third it would be a proper resultfor a small operation like ours."
The most obvious Festival winner on show at yesterday's so-called trialsday, the last fixture at the track beforethe four-day extravaganza that starts six weeks on Tuesday, was the peerless marathon man Big Buck's, who stretched home by seven lengths under Ruby Walsh in the Cleeve Hurdle. And if his slight flat spot in running two-thirds of the way round was inevitable, so was the inexorable, smooth power with which he reeled in Dynaste going to the last. The gelding, trained by Paul Nicholls, now only needs one victory to equal the all-time winning streak over jumps of 16, set by Sir Ken during the Fifties.
It would be appropriate if it should come with an unprecedented fourth success in the World Hurdle, for which he is as short as 1-2. "He's just a brilliant, brilliant horse," said Walsh. "Stayers shouldn't quicken and win on the bridle like that, but he just pricks his ears and goes."
Walsh's day began with a ban, a three-day suspension after the stewards judged his handling of Pearl Swan, who inched home in front of Grumeti in the juvenile hurdle after bumping his rival, to be careless. The ex-French Pearl Swan, having only his second outing for Nicholls, was demoted to second but promoted to favouritism for the Triumph Hurdle. Walsh, scheduled to miss the ride on Nicholls' Champion Hurdle candidate Zarkandar at Newbury on Saturday week, is considering an appeal.Reuse content

2014 Chevrolet Malibu Repair and Maintenance Costs
A guide to repairs, service, and maintenance costs for your 2014 Chevrolet Malibu
Never overpay. Check prices with our estimator
Verified by mechanics, reported by drivers like you

Our experts translate recalls into plain English
2014 Chevrolet Malibu ProblemsThe Fuel Gauge May Not Read Correctly and/or Check Engine Light With Code P0455/P0461
The fuel gauge may not read correctly and/or the Check Engine Light may illuminate with code P0455/P0461 stored for a fuel level sensor issue. These faults may be caused by a fuel vapor line inside the fuel take interfering with the fuel level sensor. If this is found to be the case, repositioned and securing the vapor line should correct this concern. If no fault is found with the fuel vapor line, the fuel level sensor itself may be at fault.
The automatic transmission shifter may fail causing the ignition key to become stuck in the ignition lock cylinder.
Illumination of the Check Engine Light can be caused by a loose or worn gas cap.
2014 Chevrolet Malibu QuestionsWhy is my MPG so low? (1 answer)
The MPG is much lower than what I expected and was told it would be, how could I improve it?
I was rerouted during some flooding here in Texas as I was driving through the water on the road my car died. Everything worked but just won't start. After I pushed it off the road I tried to start it and I saw a little smoke coming from the inside of the car and it smelled like melted plasti...
They said broken main bearing bolt. Anyone have any experience with this? Worried about metal pieces in engine causing problems later. They are replacing the crank shaft balancer.
2014 Chevrolet Malibu RecallsIgnition Key May Be Removed Without Transmission Lever Shifted To Park
The ignition key may be able to be removed from the ignition switch without having the transmission shift lever securely in the park position. This could allow the vehicle to roll unexpectedly. Dealers will inspect and if necessary replace the key cylinder lock housing free of charge to resolve the concern.
A switch that automatically controls the operation of the roof panel is not correctly recessed and may be activated accidentally. Any objects or passengers in the open roof area under closure could be crushed or injured as a result. Dealers will replace the surrounding switch trim to recess the switch and correct the problem.
Power assist to the braking system may be lost due to a problem with the vacuum assist, disabling the hydraulic boost assist. If this were to occur increased brake pedal effort would be required to slow and stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will update the software in the electronic brake control module to correct this concern. Affected vehicles are equipped with a 2.5L engine with the auto stop/start option.

David McNamara, 69, is starting to suffer from osteoarthritis. A long car drive can become wearing on the joints. According to his physiotherapist he would be better off in a car with a driving seat that allows him to sit up straight, to ease the pressure on his hips and knees, and is higher off the ground, so it's easier to get in and out. At present David drives a five-year-old 1.6 VW Golf Estate, worth about £4,000 or £5,000. He would be prepared to spend up to £15,000. Seating space for grandchildren and boot space would be welcome.
Something that car manufacturers are notoriously bad at making is car seats. Only the most expensive models plus Saab and Volvo have any idea that we need to be comfortable and well supported. Even if you don't have a serious condition, like David, you still have a right to a comfy seat.
Certainly buying a vehicle that is high off the ground is a good starting point to make getting in and out easier. Finding those models is easy but David might like to consider a specialist seat from a manufacturer called Recaro. Famous for their sports car seats, they have diversified into making something called an Orthopaed. It has very low side bolsters so that getting in and out is easy, and a very flat seat cushion. There are also all sorts of clever things such as a climate package which, depending on the conditions, cools or heats the back. Everything is adjustable from the shoulder to the lumbar support and even the seat cushion, which can be moved for better thigh support. It also has a built-in side airbag. David needs to find a local dealer and try one out. However, this is not a cheap option because prices start at £1,240.
A car for the head
The Nissan Qashqai is an impressive and very different package that should suit David. He told me that he is after style rather than practicality, but this has both. David will sit nice and high, the Qash-qai looks just like a 4x4 vehicle, but it isn't (well actually there are now four-wheel drive models). The height-adjustable driver's seat and a steering wheel that moves for height and reach should mean that David can find a layout he is happy with. There is plenty of head and legroom in the front of the car and getting at least three grandchildren in the back should not be a problem. The boot in particular is large and well shaped. There is plenty of standard equipment; air conditioning, alloy wheels, electric windows and a Bluetooth hands-free telephone kit are all part of the package. David told me he only wanted petrol and the smallest 1.6 might suit him. Although this is a heavy car, it still manages to return 42mpg. Otherwise there is a 2.0 model. Prices start at £13,699 for the two-wheel drive Visia model.
A car for the heart
The Skoda Roomster might be a tad smaller than David was expecting, but I think it might fit his lifestyle and look funky into the bargain. Like the Golf he already owns, this car is made by Volkswagen, but it is a lot less boring than that estate car. David should like the upright driving position, the seat can be raised while the steering wheel adjusts for rake and reach. The rear is a bit tight, but for two grandchildren it would be no problem and one smaller child should be fine too. The seats can be reclined, folded or removed. Not only that, the two outer seats can be moved inward and slid back and forth to make the best use of the space, hence the name. The boot is a very decent size and suitably square. There is a 1.4 petrol engine, which may be a bit underpowered, so the 1.6 would be better and should return up to 39mpg. Standard equipment includes CD and electric front windows. The price for a 1.6 in higher 3 or Scout trim is £13,010.

The only negative was that we had a room above ours and some nights we awoke with the sound of footsteps from above.( We had the room called Tourmaline) But this would not keep us from coming back!

How long does the oleophobic coating on the screen last?
I am referring to the anti-smudge coating on the touch screen which is fingerprint resistant and makes it easier to slide your fingers along the glass. After about 6 months with the phone, I am starting to see areas where the smudges quickly return and stay which can only be removed with a microfiber cloth. For example, one of the areas I touch the most is the back button. Even after cleaning this area, just a few taps of this area will show a circular smudge which doesn't go away, so this has to be due to wearing away of the coating. I was just curious about others' experiences here.
