On February 6, 2018, a jury reached a verdict for the servicer in a trial at the U.S. District Court for Northern California where the borrower alleged the servicer had mishandled a series of monthly payments. Three weeks to the date earlier, a Jefferson County, Colorado judge found in favor of the servicer at a trial where the borrower alleged that the statute of limitations had expired on the right to foreclose or enforce the debt. The wins are a promising start to 2018!

Why Do We Need Boundaries If We Are All One?
Short answer – you can't. 🙂 Not really. Boundaries are a human perception, in a way, because they come from the perspective that we are separate. What we view as healthy boundaries, we create precisely because we are all one. Think of it this way: you attract people into your life as mirrors to reflect back to you certain things about yourself. Those people are, more or less, extensions of yourself, and as such, they behave toward you in ways that you behave toward yourself.
If you're walking around under the belief that you have no right to say no, you're not thinking very highly of yourself and that's the existence that you manifest. That's the statement of who you are that you're telling yourself.
When you have a higher appreciation for yourself as the magnificent, powerful, creative being that you are, then you're naturally going to create an existence that reflects that. What we perceive as "healthy boundaries" are simply a byproduct of living in a loving vibration toward yourself.
What you are currently seeing as a separation, is actually the opposite. You're actually embracing the all of you, including your own responsibility for the life and the people that manifests around you.
Feeling like you owe things to the world is really owing things to yourself. If you begin to look at every person in the world as an extension of yourself, and then translate what you believe about them, or what you believe you should give to them, as a belief you have about yourself, or something you need to give to yourself, you'll begin to recognize things much more clearly.
I've made similar assertions to the notion of needing psychic protection from negative entities. These things, too, are a part of the "all" of which you are. As such, they are aspects of yourself, reflecting back to you beliefs and attitudes you hold about yourself. The only "protection" you need is to love yourself unconditionally.

Q: Changing URL PHP jQuery or mod_rewrite I have XAMPP installed, I run everything on my localhost/
So imagine I have localhost/website/index.php or www.website.com/index.php;
How can I delete index.php and/or replace it with something like;
localhost/website/:) or www.website.com/:)
or show it like;
localhost/website or www.website.com
Example;
$URLcapture = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$URLcustom = ":)";

$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] = $URLcustom;
echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

This shows :) of course but how can I get :) in my URL?
Thank you,
F4LLCON
EDIT
Under loaded modules I can see mod_rewrite.
STEPS BEFORE EVERYTHING -- START -
In httpd.conf I've deleted;

    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
</Directory>

and
<Directory "C:/xampp/cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride All
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

STEPS BEFORE EVERYTHING -- END -
In .htaccess I've added
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

and also tried
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule index.php nieuw.php

What am I doing wrong?
EDIT 2
Not touching .htaccess at all worked.
1. Closed xampp and apache.

*

*Edited httpd.conf in C:\xampp\apache\conf;

2a Start with above steps;

4a. http://localhost/link.php?id=126 so the page shows up; not found because the URL is different
How to fix these problems?

A: In php :
header("Location: http://www.example.com/");

But the best way is using htaccess (like ManseUK says)

A: If you are able to the best way of doing this is using mod_rewrite - you then include a rule like the one below and the index.php is hidden
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

Peron storms to seventh on Stage 1 in Denmark
2022 GP Kranj winner Andrea Peron made a great start to this year's Tour of Denmark by sprinting into seventh place for Team Novo Nordisk after a long, hectic crash field opening stage.
Andrea Peron (ITA)
"It started pretty much as we expected. The breakaway went in the early kilometres, then we thought 'ok, now it's going to settle down,' but we were wrong. It became quite hectic and nervous in the bunch, fast pace and subsequently, some of the guys got caught up in the crashes. I went down myself and banged my knee up but thankfully I'm ok and I managed to recover as the stage progressed."
"The break was still up front when we hit the finishing circles in Koge. We didn't catch them until inside the last 10km, and believe it or not there was another crash in the closing kilometres where a guy nearly came over the top of me and I was lucky to stay upright."
"The sprint was hectic with the final corner coming 1.2km from the line. I knew there I had to be in a good position because if not it was gonna leave without me. I'm thankful I was able to get a good look at the run in to the line on the last circuit. Although I still felt I was a little bit too far back. However, when we kicked I felt good, picked a good wheel and was able to move through and finish in the top 10. I am happy we made a solid start because as everybody knows this is an important race for us but I think I had the legs for a podium. So we'll see on the next sprint opportunity. "
Sports Director, Gennady Mikhaylov
"Well! I'm actually surprised that we came through and managed to get that result today. Most of if not all the team were involved in crashes. And there were a lot of crashes. This happens in cycling and sometimes it happens more often than not. Luckily none of our guys were seriously injured but it meant that Andrea had to ride a lot of the stage on his own and fight for his place in the bunch."
"Yeah, for sure there were a lot of other teams in the same situation because a lot of guys went down so we can't complain. Andrea is being incredibly consistent this season and today's performance shows that he recovered well after the Tour de Pologne. It was very important for us to start well today, I cannot stress that enough. So we will raise a glass to Andrea tonight and a solid top 10."

Three decades after its composition, La Monte Young's The Second Dream of The High-Tension Line Stepdown Transformer remains as radical a statement and as uniquely revelatory an experience as ever. ... Long, steady tones and protracted silences gradually efface the clock, to open up an airier, unfenced domain. Facets of sound become apparent that are usually only peripheral to conscious perception. The tones diffract (via Harmon mutes) to form a brilliant corona of partials that soon flares to dazzling intensity. In a dream, events of little apparent significance may be evocative of fathomless resonances. As The Second Dream develops, the four pitches virtually turn inside out to reveal astonishing depths of sonic phantasmagoria.
The Second Dream, like The Well-Tuned Piano, takes music inward to a primal, elemental level, through the quieting and suspending of time brought about by long, sustained tones, but above all in the audible manifestation of universal truths that sound in his purely tuned intervals. Young's music touches deep emotional resonances in many listeners. The authentic experience of the musical creations of one of the most original and visionary composers of our time is accessible at last through these recordings.
The beauty of The Second Dream is not in the tones, or in the rests between them as in, say Ry Cooder's fretwork. It's in the intervals, the distance between simultaneous pitches, where the music surpasses the theory. Young's genius is in the way he lets the notes relate, giving them enough duration, not just to assert themselves, but to create a vast, timeless void.
Before there was minimalism there was La Monte Young, an uncompromising composer who was known for 1) an inclination for creating complete environments for his music, sometimes occupying a whole house for his concerts, and 2) creating slowly evolving works of enormous length. His newest recorded work, The Second Dream of The High-Tension Line Stepdown Transformer from The Four Dreams of China, consists entirely of four notes played drone-like by eight muted trumpets. It's a purely internal piece of music where all the action is underneath the notes, in the little variations of breath, tone and time among the performers. Imagine the musical equivalent of Mark Rothko's nearly monochromatic canvases.
Stepdown is an extraordinarily important transitional work between the sustenance of Trio for Strings and the sine-wave drones of The Tortoise, His Dreams and Journeys. ... The name of his ensemble [The Theatre of Eternal Music], of course, alludes to the notion of the eternal music of the spheres, which the Pythagoreans (according to Socrates in the Republic) believed was produced by the singing of a single tone by a siren atop each sphere. John Hollander notes, "In answer to the objection that no mortal had ever heard that music, it was often retorted that the constant droning of that noise deadened the ears of earthly inhabitants by custom alone, and that because it was so constant, it was inaudible." Here's your chance to raise its volume.
...the pure intervals diffract into a psychedelic interplay of upper harmonics if you can ignore the most obvious notes and aim your ears upward. It's a game piece; intricate rules steer the (extremely slow) melodies away from the dissonant 17/12 interval (F to B) to create a dramatic, huge-scale form, as well as allowing for canons and choir alternations between trumpets. Calm your brain, exercise your ears.
At the end, the long and languid reverie by La Monte Young called The Four Dreams of China used eight trumpet players, four in each of the church's two side galleries. Layers of pitches, at first in perfect intervals, fade in and out and overlap. The players create the textures spontaneously but according to general rules of procedure. If this is music at all, it is not the kind we are used to ... I think there is a strong element of physical therapy at work. Over long stretches of time, one did feel a developing sense of calm, acceptance and corporeal well-being. Mr. Burns and his colleague, Ben Neill, are to be congratulated for their imaginative choice of music, their own fine playing and their choice of trumpet playing friends.
The two most memorable works [on the program] were the two most opposite: Carter's Canon for 3 ... and Young's The Melodic Version of The Second Dream of The High-Tension Line Stepdown Transformer ... The Melodic Version calls, in this performance, for eight trumpets placed in the balcony surrounding the church floor. Deep red and blue spotlights placed by Marian Zazeela cast thick, soothing shadows through the space. The musicians played long single notes, mostly muted, mostly consonant but occasionally marked by slightly buzzing dissonance, for nearly an hour. The time scale shifted, as it does in minimalism. Outside sounds-- subway rumble, car horns--lost their distracting power. The gentle vibration of pitch, sustained and even, became deeply engrossing.
In The Second Dream of the High-Tension Line Stepdown Transformer, (one of the century's great titles), [Young's] meditative lines began to flow. In this ethereal realization by eight excellent trumpet players, only four pitches were used ... their combinations carefully circumscribed to give an impression of purposeful freedom.
As the acknowledged father of minimalism and guru emeritus to the British art- rock school, his [Young's] influence is pervasive. His tools are deceptively simple: long sustained tones used singly as drones, or layered to create spacious harmonies with overtones. ...The brass quartet, suspending time for seventy minutes, led the audience through a cosmos of aural delights.
A small, select audience at the Kennedy Center Terrace Theater took a trip Wednesday evening without even leaving their seats. The panglobal music of composer La Monte Young transported them around the world in roughly 70 minutes without once breaking the sound barrier. ...Perfect intonation by all, and their ability to set up varying harmonic combinations, improvising within the context of Young's explicit directions, were what transformed a well-gauged theory into a piece whose purity of sound made one oblivious to temporal concerns.
The Second Dream of the High-Tension Line Stepdown Transformer from The Four Dreams of China is based on four pitches....An apparently static 'harmonic' music results--harmonic in the sense of the intervals formed not only between the basic tones but between their upper partials and the combination tones that are produced when these simple fundamental tones are dwelt on. But, as the performers develop their own sensitivity to such 'harmonies,' and to the degree that the listener does also, the music is not at all static; a strange, hypnotic, dream-like succession of delicate sound-images unfolds in shimmering, undulating procession.

- Roblox accounts hacked to push pro-Trump messages on kids
It's once again a presidential election year in America - unfortunately - and although campaigns are getting underway in the US, some political slogans have appeared in a particularly unexpected place.

Hackers are also switching the player's clothes to either an eagle t-shirt, or a red, white and blue getup. And, once the user has been completely transformed, they can send messages to others on a player's friend list, such as "ask your parents to vote for Trump this year!" and "MAGA2020". If you want to buy Winter King Crown, we z2u.com can give you a very low price, welcome to buy.
Players have reported that in-game messages have been sent from the hacked profiles to the account holders' friends, urging them to support Trump in the November vote. Hacked avatars have been dressed in existing in-game accessories which resemble items worn by Trump supporters.This includes a red hat with "Running of the bulls" written in white, which looks like the Make America Great Again hats that the US president favours.In addition, some characters are altered to wear a T-shirt featuring an American Eagle.

Namibie : Statues and Nation Building
D 14 août 2020 H 07:30 A HARRY BOESAK, MITCHELL VAN WYK, Shaun Whittaker C 0 messages
THE CALLOUS KILLING of George Floyd led to a global uprising against racism, including the toppling of many statues associated with white supremacist ideology.
Such symbols are crucial reminders of history, in particular the way in which that history is celebrated. Therefore, the recent protest at the bust of Curt von Francois, and the demand for its removal comes at an opportune moment. It is lamentable that the image of a German-speaking coloniser, who ordered the Hornkranz massacre – which included femicide and infanticide – and falsely claimed to have founded Windhoek, remains after 30 years of neocolonialism.
Von Francois should be replaced with a statue of Johannes Nangutuwala, leader of the 1971 general strike, a turning point in the anticolonial and anti-apartheid struggles of southern Africa. It conscientised and inspired a generation of Namibian youth, and also contributed to the 1973 Durban strike.
It would be fitting to have a worker leader – giving a black power salute with his left fist – in front of the City of Windhoek to strike a chord on the role of mass action by the Namibian working class. Namibian political independence did not come through the barrel of a gun, as Swapo would like to suggest, but via a negotiated settlement with significant compromises.
Indeed, such a statue should also initiate a national conversation about the circumstances around the assassination of Nangutuwala.
Besides the colonial images, however, it may also be appropriate to engage in a national dialogue about neocolonial statues. For example, the huge sculpture outside Windhoek of the Unknown Soldier – who obviously resembles former president Sam Nujoma – is supposedly a celebration of the victory of Swapo's armed struggle. But, if it is considered that Swapo fighters did not fire a single bullet at either Omgulugombashe and Cuito Cuanavale, the two major places where Swapo claims to have respectively started their armed struggle and defeated the colonial army, that statue could be regarded as a symbol of a dishonest narrative.
The primary battle at Cuito Cuanavale ended in a military stalemate between the MPLA/Cuban and the Unita/apartheid armies, when Chester Crocker and PW Botha understood that the balance of forces did not allow for the partitioning of Angola at that point. For that reason, the political independence of Namibia happened as a second option that would still get the Cubans out of Angola. Nevertheless, Swapo fighters were not at the key battle and therefore not at the negotiation table.
The bust of the Unknown Soldier ought to be substituted with a statue of Jakob Marengo – holding up a Martini-Henry rifle with his left arm. That anticolonial fighter led a 'vicious' guerilla revolt of a few thousand against German colonialism from Karasberg between 1903 and 1907. Marengo's non-tribal army consisted of several language groups, and fought much longer than all the tribal armies. The scourge of tribalism should really have died in Namibia in 1903. Thus, it would be right to return Marengo's remains from the farm Eensaamheid in the Northern Cape. Surely, after so many years the Swapo fiction that the anticolonial struggle began in the 1960s should be discarded.
Moreover, it would also make sense to erect a statue of Jonker Afrikaner in front of the National Museum. He was arguably the founder of the Namibian nation given his serious attempts to unify all language groups within the borders of what is today called Namibia, and that his forces managed to keep the colonisers out of the territory during his reign (1825-1861).
At the same time it is relevant to remember that Windhoek was named after the Afrikaners' farm 'Wintershoek', which they – guided by his grandfather Klaas Afrikaner – had to flee due to Dutch colonialism in the Cape. Radical historian Martin Legassick in his book 'Hidden Histories of Gordonia : Land Dispossession and Resistance in the Northern Cape 1800-1990' (2016) noted that the original Afrikaners were fearless and proud anticolonial fighters. In the 1820s these brown Afrikaners consisted of about 300 men with 200 guns, described by a white traveller as "the scourge and terror of the whole of this part of Africa".
One of their leaders, Jacobus Afrikaner, for example, was imprisoned on Robben Island from 1879 following the Korana wars – well before Andimba Toivo ya Toivo found himself in that infamous prison. A sculpture of Jonker Afrikaner – presenting with his left hand the Treaty of Hochanas (1858) that ensured usufruct land rights for all language groups – would be more suitable in front of the museum compared to Nujoma showing a neoliberal capitalist Constitution with so-called private property rights, which are at the root of today's massive social inequality.
It is overdue as well to shift the memorial of the Old Location massacre (1959) to Zoo Park in Windhoek, and to list the names of all 13 victims in order to reflect the national character of the people. It is unacceptable to only mention Rosa Mungunda. That monument ought to supplant the German colonial shrine to the soldiers who carried out the Hornkranz slaughter.
It is also an indictment of the Swapo elite that, after so many years, the sites of the German concentration camps at Lüderitz and Swakopmund have not been accorded due recognition. Maybe they fear that it would lead to questions about Swapo's camps in Angola and Zambia ?
Nonetheless, it is high time for the remains of Afrikaner, Marengo and Nangutuwala to be given dignified burials at Heroes' Acre, and for the return of the bodies of as many as possible of the victims of the Swapo camps. The nation must use this historical moment to mobilise against racism and for reparations, but if the Namibian people are going to engage in nation building, it is crucial to remember our history in a balanced way. The truth is always revolutionary.

I am over the moon excited today as we pack our bags and head to Thailand tonight! I am not exactly sure what to expect but I know one thing for sure it is much needed after the last few weeks. I only planned a jungle excursion in advance so we can trek through the waters on elephants but other than that we are going to book some things once we are there. I don't want the entire trip to be running around. I hate coming back from vacation and feeling dead and completely worn out. The jet lag will probably take care of that for us.
Seeing as I am newbie traveler, I have absolutely no idea what to pack. So I have taken to Pinterest to get some ideas. Did I mention I will not be checking ONE bag!? So everything for a 5 day trip has to go in a carry on. Jesus take the wheel... So I will be posting up my favorite packing sites some Pinterest and some other sites that I found useful in my journey to pack up all the things that I need to take with me.
So check out this ridiculousness from yesterday. Talk about a way to kick off Springbreak: A huge Sandstorm. I would have to say this is my least favorite part of the UAE. I hate feeling gritty and dirty and there is zero escaping it when these babies come through. What stinks even more, there is zero warning. Usually you wake up and here it is, like yesterday.
I will say that it does a number on breathing though. Ugh.. I've gotta be more prepared and carry a scarf with me. The sand is real. While the sandstorms come quickly, they also go quickly as well. I went in to get a pedicure (this picture was about 5 minutes prior to entering the salon) and then about an hour and 15 minutes later...all gone! It was amazing. Today is absolutely beautiful and clear. So funny this weather is. I never thought I would find weather more unpredictable than Florida's but I was wrong. It is almost identical here in Abu Dhabi.

A man was sentenced to life in prison on Thursday (January 12) after an October conviction of the 2004 murder of a New Orleans resident and friend of Juvenile.
According to NOLA.com, Charles Raymond was convicted of killing Nathaniel Robertson, a family friend of Juvenile's, following an incident in which Raymond and friends wanted to jack Robertson for the car he was driving. The vehicle, a Hummer H2, actually belonged to Juvie's brother and Robertson was said to be caring for it for the time being. The 37-year-old was shot by Raymond in the back five times and lost his life during the incident.
Reports say that witnesses testified that Raymond was not hush about what had gone down, as he bragged about the killing following a brief stint in jail.
Initially, Raymond, along with four other men, were arrested following the murder. However, things did not go as planned for the prosecution in state court, which triggered a federal investigation as the case fell apart at the local level.
In addition to Raymond, three other men will be serving time for their roles in the incident.
Juvenile's upcoming album, Rejuvination, is tentatively slated for a January 17 release. The first single, "Power," was released online in November, and is produced by Mannie Fresh and features Rick Ross. After cooking up heat for a number of years as the anchors of Cash Money, Juvie and Mannie reunited for the first time on wax in years on the single.


2. Self love is the best love ever!
3. You are responsible for your own happiness, love and respect yourself.
4. Be confident, love everything about yourself.
5. Teach people how to treat you, by loving yourself first.
6. Let your love spread like an ocean, just make sure you come first.
7. Do what works for you without feeling the need to justify yourself to others.
Nice list. Self love is important as taking care of yourself is taking care of others too really.
All of those quotes are just so lovely. Self love is beautiful. We must recognize and learn it as as soon a s possible.
My mom always told me to put myself first. She said if I learn to love myself first, then and only then will I be able to love and care for others I hold dear to my heart. She is definitely right about that. Thanks for sharing these quotes about self love.
I really loved the last one. We shouldn't have to justify taking care of ourself to others. We cannot fully love others unless we can love ourselves and see our own personal value.
No.7 is so true! So any times, we feel that we have to justify our reasons to others. So long as it's hurting no one, we shouldn't be obligated to. Also, we are responsible for our own happiness always. Do what makes you happy!
Self love is really important for me the 6 point define it for me.
I love all these quotes especially - Do what works for you without feeling the need to justify yourself to others.
These are all such amazing quotes! Self love is so easy to talk about but so hard to actually practice.

Ft. Lauderdale, FL - ABC News: Missing Florida Millionaire May Be Alive And 'Suffering From Psychosis'
Published on: June 22, 2012 03:31 PM
Ft. Lauderdale, FL - Troubled millionaire Guma Aguiar who disappeared at sea may be alive and in a "delusional state or be suffering from psychosis," according to a legal document obtained by ABC News and filed by Aguiar's mother.
Ellen Aguiar filed the court documents with the Broward County Circuit Court on Thursday to become the conservator or temporary guardian of Aguiar's estate, which is valued at more than $100 million.
On Wednesday morning, Aguiar's 31-foot fishing boat washed up on a Fort Lauderdale beach with the engine running and lights on, but with no sign of its Brazilian-born owner.
The U.S. Coast Guard and multiple police agencies launched a search for Aguiar, but the Coast Guard search suspended their search on Thursday night.
The suspension of the search, Aguiar's mother's legal filing and the lack of a body have raised questions about what exactly happened on Aguiar's boat after he left his dock on Tuesday night.

What legal document? Cant they spend a few ofthe100 millions to find him?
Does he have a wife an if yes y is the mother claiming his asset's? Something doesn't add up??!
You guys are correct. This guy is strange. Last month he changed his will and put his mother in instead of his wife.
Now, this disappearance which is staged to appear as if he vanished at sea. But conveniently, his wallet and cell phone were found. Hmm.
Did he toss them on board while drowning?
He did this deliberately to make his wife an agunah.
He's been a strange character. A few years ago he claimed to be Moshiach.
No, I'm not making that up.
A rachmonus on this wife.
Good Shabbos to all.

It's an old story that his wife and brother in law have been after his money. She's been driving him crazy for a long time. She was only married to him for his money; they didn't have anormal life together. He was a young guy with a lot of money around him and many people that wanted a piece of the pie. I do believe; for those that know more facts; this smells foul. This is for sure some pre arranged something... let's see what the future in this investigation holds.

Getting it off my chest (long)
I have a credit account at a jewelry store, that I haven't used in two years. My son also had an account there, but neither of us knew the other had one. He lives about 50 miles from me. Before Christmas, he went into the jewelry store, told them he had an account that he also hadn't used in quite a while. He wanted to know if it was still open. The manager of the store took his driver's license, and pulled up my account (his had been closed). She told him the account was still active, he made a purchase, and signed for it. About a month ago, I received a statement in the mail showing the purchase on my account. Not knowing what happened, I called the credit department, and told them someone else used my account without my knowledge. The signatures (his and mine) were checked, and they were different. One problem is that he is named after me. He's a junior. But the manager didn't even check the address on the account. She just gave him the merchandise. A few days after I reported the problem to the credit bureau, my wife was talking to my son, who told her he had made the purchase, but didn't know it went on our account. He wondered why he hadn't received a statement. By now, the problem was turned over to the fraud department, so I called to let them know they put it on the wrong account, and there was no fraud. My wife explained to the investigator what had happened. He told her that was impossible (same as calling her a liar). But I had already talked to the manager of the store, and she admitted it was her mistake. Her excuse was that it was Christmas shopping season, and they were busy. This jerk from the fraud department had a real attitude, and kept insisting that my son knew what was happening. But he couldn't think of a reason why he would tell us, since he might never get caught. He threatened my son with fraud. I talked to this jerk more than once, and he thought he was the judge and jury. It all came out in the wash, and after I demanded that he call my wife and apologize for his attitude, he did apologize to her, but offered excuses for it. He told her he would send her a gift certificate. The name of the store in question is JB Robinson Jewelers, it and Kay Jewelers are owned by Sterling Jewelers, and it's their fraud department we were dealing with. I just got back from a visit to JB Robinson, where, in front of customers, I handed the ass't. manager my cut up credit card, and told her to cancel my account. I then showed her the gift certificate, and asked her lowdly, so others could hear, if I could pick out anything I wanted from the store for $50.00. She said yes I could. Here's what I did with the gift certificate in front of their customers.

wow Ed that's quite a story, It just goes to show you how easily mistakes can be made.
I'm having a slight (at the moment) problem. It appears that the person who had my mail box before me had the first name of Cassandra and she was in financial trouble and had been receiving letters of demand from a number of companies. I keep sending them back as "adrressee not known at this post box" . But last week I received a letter adressed to me stating that "they knew" I was Cassandra ******** and I was using a shortened version of my maiden name to avoid paying my bills and that it wouldn't work. Of course it's not me but the coincidence is that this Cassandra person has the same maiden name as mine. I've sent the letter to my solicitor and hopefully he can sort it out but I'm not too impressed as it's going to cost me money to clear this up.
Jim Conway
Geeez - I'm sending you hard earned money to support your web site and you are out there tearing it up?
Next time you get into a problem like this offer the Cert on eBay and tell people the store isn't offering much in the line of social graces but ....
It could be a different way to get even (better check with your lawyer on the write up) and still salvage something for the hassle!!!.

Look at it this way, Ed.. dealing with Corporate Entities and their Lackeys is alot like walking into a room full of Un-neutered dogs...Everyone seems intent on grabbing a free leg and just dont want to let go....
Good job.......Tom
Oh, that's not the whole story. The jerk I talked to gave me information that I didn't ask for, and was supposed to be private, between the company and my son. They actually broke the law, and they'll hear more about this. I'm still fuming!!
Go get them ED. It's wrong that they gave out private information, not to mention the mess up and rudeness in the first place.
winwintoo
Ed, what a mess - I hope you can resolve it and maintain your dignity. Remember that revenge is a meal best eaten cold.
Sanda, I too was receiving nasty letters about someone else's bills. I kept sending them back, but they would show up again. Finally in frustration, I scribbled "deceased" across the fronts of a bunch of letters and threw them back in the mail box.
A week later - you guessed it - I got the letters all back again, only this time instead of being addressed to Mr. Bill Brock, they were addressed to Mr. Brock Deceased.
That was funny enough, but it got rediculous when I continued to get mail addressed to Mr. Deceased for several months - the sender?? The provincial health care provider!!
Take care, Margaret
DJ Dubovsky
It sounds like you need to let this Jewelry chain know the name of the person that's caused you such grief. Maybe go to his boss or manager and let them know how unhappy you are and just what info the guy gave out during his insulting diatribe. Is your son going to return the item he bought too since all this happened. That would serve them right if they lost another valuable customer.
Margaret,
That is so funny. Thanks for the laugh. Next time try writing "He DIED you idiot!!" on the letters and see if they come back "Dear Mr. Idiot"
I talked to his boss a few days ago. She told me I'd have to remember that they deal with dishonest people all the time. She also told me that my son went in there with my credit card, but it wouldn't swipe in the machine, so they had to enter the numbers manually. Problem is that nobody has *ever* had my card except me. Since she didn't seem to understand how I felt, I told her they need to remember that not everybody is crooked. Everyone now knows exactly what happened, but that doesn't make me feel any better about their business practices. The jewelry has been returned, and any family members who shopped there, will not do so in the future. Any accounts have been closed.
It's a shame they didn't handle things in a more diplomatic fashion. It's their loss because you have a huge family.
I hate it when I'm made to feel suspect in a store or a bank. You start to feel guilty when you're not. I remember one time buying Muriatic Acid for the pool and some other items one of which was candy for the up coming Halloween holiday at a discount store. The store clerk actually questioned me on what I planned to use the acid for. I felt guilty as though I had done something wrong. I just told her that "Believe it or not, we actually put this stuff in our swimming pool water" but I had the feeling she felt I was going to poison neighborhood children. It's insulting as hell and I don't blame you for getting mad.
And in the movie version Gene Hackman plays Ed and the jeweler receives an "Attitude Adjustment" and all is well.............

Report: Oracle Is Trying to Acquire TikTok
Larry Ellison's company held preliminary talks with Chinese owner ByteDance and is competing with Microsoft for the video-sharing social network.

Technology firm Oracle has reportedly entered the race to acquire TikTok's North American operations, The Financial Times reported. Larry Ellison's company held preliminary talks with Chinese owner ByteDance and is "seriously considering" buying the app's business in the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, according to unnamed sources.
Oracle may have some competition from Microsoft, which earlier this month confirmed that it met with ByteDance about a possible purchase. Though still in the preliminary stages, any negotiations must be complete before Sept. 15, or TikTok will be banned in the US, Donald Trump said. The president recently signed two executive orders prohibiting companies from doing business with ByteDance and Tencent, which owns messaging service WeChat. A week later, Team Trump joined rival video-sharing social network Triller.
Oracle co-founder and CTO Ellison—the fifth-wealthiest person in the world—is one of the very few people in Silicon Valley to openly support Trump, The Financial Times noted. In February, 76-year-old Ellison held a fundraiser for the sitting president at his estate in California.
Any deal to buy part of TikTok would be complicated, to say the least, requiring the separation of back-end technology from ByteDance. A nationwide ban, meanwhile, wouldn't stop fans from accessing the popular program through a VPN. Oracle, who is reportedly working with venture capital firms General Atlantic and Sequoia Capital to secure a deal, declined PCMag's request for comment.
Over the summer, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told Fox News that the US government was looking to ban certain social media apps offered by Chinese companies, including TikTok. The concern is that China will use these popular platforms to spy on international users. The US has not yet offered any proof of this happening.

Now, TikTok is "setting the record straight," addressing rumors and misinformation via a new information hub and Twitter account. "We're taking another step to continue to build trust with our TikTok community by delivering the facts—in our own words and in the words of leading experts across cybersecurity, media, and academia," a company blog post said. "Because we neither support nor stand for the spread of misinformation on our platform, or about our platform."

Mornan
Location White Mountains, Gondor
Type Valley
Description Dark and narrow valley
The Mornan was a dark valley in the White Mountains where the spring of the source of the Morthond was located.[1]
The Mornan was a dark and narrow valley that lay beneath the shadow of two high mountains in the Ered Nimrais, being located directly to the south of Edoras.[2] Above the Mornan was a hidden gateway within some shadowed rocks which lead out from the Gate of the Dead Men.[2][3]
On 8 March T.A. 3019, Aragorn, Gimli, Legolas, and the Grey Company exited the Paths of the Dead at the Mornan.[4] They rode to the Stone of Erech where Aragorn, as the heir of Isildur, called upon the Oathbreakers to follow him and fulfill their pledge.[3]
Carl F. Hostetter has suggested that the name Mornan consists of mor- ("dark") + nan (valley).[5]

I have noticed since I became involved in making Native American style flutes that I have a natural affinity with what is called 432 Hz tuning. Even before I became aware that there was such a thing as the lower 432 Hz tuning I felt a natural aversion to bringing my flutes up to the standard 440 Hz when I was tuning them. My ear and heart seemed to intuitively prefer the lower – some would say slightly flat – sound of a flute that was tuned around 432 Hz. When I discovered that others were also more comfortable with this slightly flatter sound I was relieved to know that I was not abnormal.
The tuning of musical instruments in western societies has, like most things in our highly regimented society, become standardize. The standard that has been established is 440 Hz for the note called A above the middle C on a piano. All the other notes are tuned in relationship to this A.
This standard of tuning is rather recent in origin having been established in the late 1800s and then formalized by the American Federation of Musicians in 1917. Around 1940 the United States introduced 440 Hz worldwide, and finally in 1953 it became the ISO 16 - standard.
Before 440Hz became the standard a variety of tunings were used.
A = 432 Hz, known as Verdi's 'A' after the renowned composed Guiseppe Verdi who advocated for is use, is an alternative tuning standard that many propose as mathematically consistent with the natural vibrations of the physical universe. Music based on 432 Hz transmits; it is believed, beneficial healing energy because it is a pure tone of the math fundamental to nature.
According to Brian T Collins, a musician and researcher, the standard pitch (A=440 Hz) does not harmonize on any level that corresponds to cosmic movement, rhythm or natural vibration. The greatest musicians, such as Mozart and Verdi, based their music on the natural vibration of A = 432 Hz. It is believed that earlier composers such as Bach wrote for an even lower tuning.
I have discovered that there is a growing musical and metaphysical movement for recovering optimal integrity in the music industry and in spirituality through changing back to the 432 Hz tuning.
According to Richard Huisken, music tuned to 432 Hz is softer and brighter, giving greater clarity and is easier on the ears. Many people experience more meditative and relaxing states of body and mind when listening to such music. Researchers and musicians, such as Coreen Morsink (pianist and music teacher), report that they feel calmer, happier and more relaxed when playing music at 432 Hz.
It is believed that music based on this natural tone is more transparent, more marked, gives an obvious musical picture and the overtones and undertones moves more freely. Music based on 440 Hz represents stuffed emotions and blocked energy. By lowering the pitch by just 8 Hz, you become more flexible and spontaneous. It is said that the 432 tuning releases your energy and takes you into a beautiful state where relaxation is natural.
The 440 Hz tuning is well established and if you are going to be playing with other instrumentalists you should have a flute that is tuned to the 440 standard so that you are in harmony with the other instruments. However when you are playing solo as long as the flute is tuned to itself – that is consistent through the scale – it does not matter to what standard the flute is tuned you will sound fine.
The ultimate truth is in the individual flute players' ear and heart. I encourage you to do your own research and learn about and listen to music in the 432 Hz tuning. If it appeals to you I can tune one of my Native American style flutes to 432 Hz for you. I think you will be pleased with the result.

As online the online market place continues to capture more and more of the retail market share, having the confidence to stock our store with a wide range of inventory becomes more of a challenge. We've tried several eCommerce platforms ranging from our own web-store managed in house like Smart Etailing or Woo Commerce to 3P marketplaces like ebay and Amazon. Each of them came with a their own set of challenges. Most were just way too expensive leaving us with inventory management nightmares and working way too hard for little to no profit. Not to mention, receiving cease and desist letters and phone calls from companies who sell their product on Amazon and don't want you (THEIR CUSTOMER) competing with them in that market.
We discovered XION a couple of years ago in it's early stages. At that time I had several conversations with Dan Fairbanks, XION's founder and CEO. As a former owner and operator of multiple small running stores in the Seattle area, Dan understands the challenges we brick-and-mortar shops face as a result of the public's growing dependence on internet marketplaces. Along with Co-Founder Robert Ivie, Dan started developing XION with the goal of revolutionizing the way consumers shop locally. Dan and his team considered my recommendations and concerns and applied solutions to address them. They were and continue to be very sensitive to what small businesses like mine can afford and put together a very nice package where our success fuels theirs.
The XION marketplace is a growing collection of locally owned and operated outdoor stores, across the country, including bike shops, camping and outdoor stores and even water and snow sports. Each store has it's own store page that synchronizes with our point of sale systems to keep our inventory both on the web and in our store fairly accurate. You can browse much of our inventory from our web-store and place orders to have items shipped or you can pick it up in store during regular hours of operation. Since, relaunching our XION page with some of the new improved functionality and XION's marketing campaigns, we are already seeing more success and are hopeful that it continues.
We understand that when browsing XION's marketplace, our local customer may end up purchasing something on the site from other stores. We also have come to terms with the fact that many of our locals are already buying online and we'd rather they purchase from other locally owned and operated brick-and-mortar stores than corporate chains whose primary focus is on the dollars rather than the passion of the activity. These local shop owners are typically the people who paved the way for the chain stores who often wait until we have built the market in the area before they even consider coming into the community. So please, shop local at Skinny Wheels in our physical shop or our online store. But if you must shop online for cycling related or other outdoor products, pleas shop XION.
We love and appreciate the support of all our local and online customers!


Neighbors is an app by Ring, a smart-doorbell company owned by Amazon. It is free and allows people to share and comment security details and current crimes in their neighborhood. Most posts that are shared are video clips taken by Ring security cameras.
All these new apps, Wi-Fi-enabled security cameras, video doorbells and window sensors could reduce crime and help more consumers get access to home security services without paying monthly subscriptions.
Consumers will now have to decide how much personal information they are ready to share with these companies.
Apps such as Neighbors can increase the adoption of connected security cameras. 23% of the posts on the app is about suspicious behavior, 20% about supposed crimes, and 15% on safety issues. The app supports both iOS and Android.
Millions of people are taking to this app to post snippets taken from their security camera. However, every post is reviewed by Ring before it goes online to ensure its accuracy. They are now looking to automate the process. The company is working with multiple police departments to assist the authorities in using Neighbors as a reliable crime-reporting and monitoring tool.

NEW HEALTH SERVICE STAFF
6 March 2015 | Comments
Dr Francisco Reyes Milian
The St Helena General Hospital has recently welcomed two new Doctors to their Health Service Team.
From Guatemala, Central America, joining the Team is Specialist Obstetrician & Gynaecologist, Dr Francisco Reyes Milian and Specialist Anaesthetist with general medicine duties, Dr Erick Diaz Rivera (photos attached).
Dr Francisco's role is to take care of all pregnant women tending the Hospital, looking after them from the beginning right through to the end of their pregnancy. Dr Francisco runs the Antenatal Clinic and ensures, through checking laboratory tests and ultrasound scans, that everything is going well with the mothers, detects if there is any kind of anomaly or problem with the baby and tries to get ahead of that problem. As the Gynaecologist, Dr Francisco will tend to women with other conditions and provide advice on contraception or diseases of the uterus or ovaries for example.
Since his arrival on 25 February 2015, Dr Francisco has already delivered two babies.
"From a city of 13 million people and a big city hospital with 50 births per day, coming to St Helena is a big change for me – I have seen a lot of births in my life.
"The Hospital here is very well structured, it has everything basic that a Hospital needs and what I'm trying to do now is learn what equipment we do have and see if there is anything that we need that could improve the system here in any way."
Dr Erick Diaz Rivera
Dr Francisco is settling into his new role and familiarising himself with the Hospital and its staff.
Anaesthetist, Dr Erick, will take over the anaesthetic role currently held by Dr Atilla who is soon leaving the Island. Dr Erick will provide anaesthesia in the theatre as well as carry out practice duties on Mondays and Fridays when he will tend patients at the clinics. Dr Erick will also be able to provide a certain level of intensive care to patients if required.
Dr Erick has a wealth of experience in his field and trained for his residency of anaesthesia from 2009-2012. He has worked in Social Security in Guatemala where he gave up to 500 anaesthesias a year working with different types of patients, including Neurological patients, Proctology patients and general surgery patients. Dr Erick was also in charge of conducting kidney transplants.
He commented:
"I am looking forward to working at the General Hospital. The Hospital itself is complete and the wards are very good. I am working with a new anaesthetic machine, which is good, and I have the tools to be able to complete my work. I would like to help with renewing some of the protocols here and hopefully can provide my experience where needed."
Both Dr Erick and Dr Francisco are enjoying the Island.

Przełączka za Upłazkową Basztą (ok. 1500 m) – przełączka w północno-zachodniej grani Upłazkowej Turni w Dolinie Kościeliskiej w Tatrach Zachodnich. Grań ta oddziela Pisaniarski Żleb (Żleb nad Pisaną) od Wąwozu Kraków. Przełączka znajduje się tuż po zachodniej stronie Upłazkowej Baszty. Od następnej na zachód przełączki (Upłazkowe Wrótka, ok. 1505 m) oddzielona jest skalnym zębem.

Spod Przełączki za Upłazkowa Basztą w południowym kierunku opada kilkudziesięciometrowej wysokości skalista ściana, w której znajduje się głęboki komin i kilka nyż. Ściana ta ma podnóże nieco powyżej Przełączki za Saturnem. Łatwiejsze wyjście prowadzi od północnej strony (z Pisaniarskiego Żlebu). Spod przełączki opada tutaj płytowa, częściowo porośnięta trawnikami załupa (I stopień trudności).

Songs My Mother Never Taught Me
Murray Shugars's collection of poems, Songs My Mother Never Taught Me, is clearly divided into three sections with distinct differences in approaches to the craft. The first section, which gives the book its title, is the strongest of the three, as Shugars creates a distinct world in this section. These poems are much more narrative than the other two sections and draw mostly on his childhood, though the speaker of the poems moves into adulthood in the poems about war.
What gives these opening poems such power is the strong sense of place Shugars is able to create. While it is a place where people are clearly suffering, he is able to show us the beauty that is found even there. In "Plastic Milk Jugs," for example, Shugars shows us a friend's father: "Bobby's dad, John, sways in the doorway. / He has his eyes closed and head bowed / like a deacon praying. He's hugging / a muzzle-loading rifle. He lets out a snore." The father seems a sympathetic character, as we are told about his injury and the painkillers he takes, which lead to this semi-sleep that he walks around in. By the end of the poem, though, John has shot Bobby's dog instead of the plastic milk jugs of the title; in the distance, "The big saw at the mill is screaming / down the middle of a pine log. / Sawdust piles on the floor / faster than a boy can sweep," showing how both Bobby and the speaker feel about their lives.
Shugars also does a good job showing these characters' desires, especially the speaker's growing desire for Holly Anne, a girl he later he realizes he did not care about as he once thought. In the first poem where she appears—named after her—she and the speaker are lying in the hayloft, probably having sex, though that is left to the reader to decide. Shugars describes the scene: "Wind through the open loft like a naked boy / Diving from the high banks of Crockery Creek." The line break here emphasizes the scene we are currently seeing, giving us the impression the speaker is naked, though that is never described. The second line, though, connects to another poem later in the first section, also about Holly Anne. In "Rhapsody," the speaker is older, now married, but remembering when he was fourteen when "She languished on a hill above / the desperate splashes I made / diving naked from the high banks." These connections that run throughout the opening section provide a depth of character and place lacking in the rest of the collection.
The second section, "A Litany of Things Known," moves to more imagistic, almost surrealistic poems. One of the best examples of this approach is "Self Portrait Holding the Camera at Arm's Length," a clear reference to Ashbery's "Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror," though Shugars updates the technology to a camera, with a mention of Frank Stanford, as well (there are others throughout the collection). Instead of the narrative poems of the first section, here we see lists of images piled one on another:
I wrote the forty-one verses of the universe on an acorn.
I have the manifest humility of the peacock.
I am the cat that trods to all the measures of the music,
the russian blue who left the mouse's head
at the foot of your mother's bedstead.
I the thieving squirrel of beech tree birdseed.
I the purple rook who steals
only the best handmade shoes.
This shift helps lead the reader into the final section, which is made up of one longer poem in five sections: "Searching For Duende." In this poem, Shugars channels Ginsberg, while making numerous allusions, including several to The Odyssey, Neruda, Shakespeare, and García Lorca, among others. As in the previous section, we have a speaker who makes declarations about himself through one image after another in an attempt to evoke an emotion, not create a narrative to follow. Section V begins:
I am a furiously militant Odysseus lost between distant war
and home, hollow-eyed and hungry but still dancing,
a lunar paralytic on the splintered deck of my craft, the odor
of nocturnal ports in my hair. The sea repeats
the unrepeatable approach of the papal nuncio night.
In this closing poem, Shugars comes back to themes and ideas he has worked throughout the book. He talks about love and the pursuit of it, with the connections to The Odyssey, while also commenting on war and writing, two other themes that have come up throughout the work. While the last section is not as strong as the first, it still does an effective job of wrapping up the collection, though I am left wishing there were more of the earlier poems.

life had survived the Gunpowder Plot assassination. He is hallucinating and sees a bloody dagger in the air, which is his instrument to murder the King. Lady Macbeth accuses Macbeth of being too timid and afeard to do something to make his ambition come true. What the witches say seems to strike a thought in Macbeths mind, especially the prediction that he will become king. Thus, the witches words are only tempting Macbeth, it is he who further develops ideas relating to the prophecies. Appears to be real). She even goes to the point to call upon the spirits to unsex her and fill her with cruelty to make sure that here feminine ways dont cause the plan to go wrong. Macbeth is a strong, brutal warrior, so by insulting him, she is offending his manliness.
At first, Lady Macbeth has the greatest effect on Macbeth because she was the one who persuaded him to carry out his first murder however, I believe that if it wasnt for the witches, Macbeth would never feel the need to stab the rightful king. Macbeths tyranny is shown in this scene because he is confident that his wife will agree with the murders after they are accomplished and applaud the deed. He makes this statement in reference to the murders of Banquo and Fleance. So, as said lusting for power is very harmful to oneself unless done in a proper way; meaning without anyone getting hurt. In Act 4, the witches contribute to Macbeths downfall as they deceive him through twisted words. Macbeth ends up dying in the most horrible way. To be associated with witches was considered a criminal offense and many women were put on trial as a result.


This case before the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court raised the question whether an employee may be compelled to arbitrate employment discrimination claims pursuant to a pre-dispute, written arbitration agreement where the employee argues that she did not knowingly and voluntarily agree to waive her right to a jury trial. A decision adopting St. Fleur's proposed "knowing and voluntary" defense would have threatened the enforceability of arbitration policies adopted by employers throughout Massachusetts. NELF filed an amicus brief arguing that the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., ("FAA") expressly limits courts to considering generally applicable contract defenses when determining the validity of arbitration agreements and preempts any state law that would impede their enforceability. Therefore, NELF argued, St. Fleur's proposed "knowing and voluntary waiver" standard is preempted. NELF further argued that the FAA preempts the attempt by St. Fleur and the Superior Court to import into Massachusetts law a heightened standard of scrutiny that derives from language unique to the 1991 Civil Rights Act and applies at most to agreements to arbitrate certain federal employment discrimination claims.
In a unanimous decision issued on January 4, 2008, the Court agreed with NELF that the FAA permits invalidation of arbitration agreements only where the challenging party can prove a generally applicable contract defense under state law, such as fraud, duress, or unconscionability, and remanded the case to the Superior Court for an evidentiary hearing to determine whether St. Fleur was fraudulently induced to enter into the arbitration agreement.
