that was prior to the Japanese buying Rheem, in that time frame and
earlier they made low end equipment, about
the same as the rest of the builder grade equipment in the US.... its
only been Japanese owned for 5 years or so.
their latest is quite impressive...one of the 97% hot water heaters I
purchased for a job had a 6 wire control system, with
quick change sensors for fast trouble shooting.. US boilers run to a
hundred or more wire connections...some are a real
pain.
however, it behoves a person to do their own reseaarch...thiis is
just my opinion.

If you don't move, your taxes stay low. The disadvantage is that if you
move into a house exactly like your own your taxes will multiply
significantly. The alternative is getting your taxes raised whenever
the government thinks it wants to spend more money.
Government employees are unionized. The unions have wiped out our
manufacturing industries, which fold if they're unable to make a profit.
Not the same for government -- "management" just has to raise taxes
and they get to jail us if we don't pay.
If our "elected" officials were capable of NOT wasting money there would
be plenty. Our local school board is planning on floating a $350million
bond offering to repair and update the local schools. The school
population is declining, schools SHOULD be closed (they spent
significant money on repair and landscaping of a school that was closed
the following year), and they're asking for money to (among other
things) update the air conditioning in the high school gym and add a
teachers' lounge.
I've got a feeling that if they contemplated just fixing the toilets,
repairing the roofs, making the phones work, etc. the total cost would
be considerably less; a couple of years ago they got $250million, which
wasn't enough.
Repeat: if you let them have it, they will waste it.

My phone was dead. It lit up and that was all, no letters. I called
tracfone and they sent out a new sim but that did not fix the problem
as I suspected it wouldn't. Then I went to Meijer's and got the $14.99
phone. I went online and there is a page to transfer the phone. All
you need is the old phone's ID's. That 1000 minutes is not a typo.
I don't know why I recieved it but I went from 800 minutes and a
deadline of Jan 29, to 1800 minutes and a deadline of Mar 29th. I did
pay for double minutes for life the last time I extended minutes so
maybe that had something to do with it.

A. It is pretty cheap to replace the battery on those Motorola
phones. Like less than US$10 (I think I found a Motorola branded
replacement battery for for mine for around US$5 shipped).
2. If you have a huge bank of minutes accumulated on your Tracfone,
why are you buying more? It only costs US$4.95/month (i.e., less than
US$60/year) to keep the minutes you have on your phone active after
their original expiration date.

I think you just got lucky. Double minutes or not, no way you would get an
extra 1,000 minutes added. Usually a new phone comes with a couple of months
service and 20 minutes or so. I better write down the ID numbers of our
phones, incase we lose or break one of them. I sure would hate to lose all
of those minutes that my wife and I have accumulated.
It seems like I can never find a phone that has enough ringing and listening
volume. This last one is an LG 225. It's OK but if I could turn it up some
more, I would. I guess I'm just picky about phones and how they fit my ear
and sound. Maybe I just need a hearing aid. Which phones have you had and
how did you like them?

Well, I had a Motorola flip phone (V60i) that I really liked. TracFone
informed me that something about the service was changing and that it would
no longer work. They sent me a free replacement phone. It too was a Motorola
but crappy (V170). The phonebook wasn't on the sim, I guess, and all too
often it would say something like, " phonebook not available at this time".
I saw the LG 225 (new, not reconditioned) with double minutes for life, for
free and free shipping with the purchase of an annual card that had 400
minutes. That was about $95 or $100. I didn't realize that you could buy
just the service time. I'll keep that in mind. As for now, I'm good till
5/9/09 and still haven't cashed in the annual card yet.

TARGETED INDIVIDUAL and a member of THE WORLDWIDE CAMPAIGN AGAINST
TORTURE AND ABUSE USING DIRECTED ENERGY AND NEUROLOGICAL WEAPONS .
I SUPPORT THE WORLDWIDE CAMPAIGN AGAINST TORTURE AND ABUSE USING
DIRECTED ENERGY AND NEUROLOGICAL WEAPONS.
I would like to draw your attention to some extreme and horrendous
criminality being conducted with the involvement of United States
Government-related Agencies and the complicity, if not participation,
of many other governments, security agencies and/or shadowy
organisations - involving the use of DIRECTED ENERGY AND NEUROLOGICAL
WEAPONS on defenceless people.
I can confirm that the technical abilities and powers to:-
1. place a human subject under continuous surveillance, no matter
where he/she is, from remote locations.
2. continuously monitor a human brain from remote locations, including
thought, reaction, motor command, auditory event and visual image
reading
3. continuously input directly into a human brain from remote
locations, including the ability to override, control and alter
consciousness, and to introduce voices, noises, other disturbances,
images and "dreams" into the brain
4. directly interfere with, abuse, torture and hit bodies - including
performing advanced medical procedures - and objects - from remote
locations
5. directly interfere with, alter, insert etc. data, files,
communications and legal evidence from remote locations - even during
transmission
6. make live TV, and other screens and monitors, two-way – for
surveillance, invasion of privacy etc..
7. control the flow of information and orchestrate the media –
worldwide.
ARE ALREADY IN EXISTENCE AND ARE ALREADY BEING ABUSED!
There is massive ignorance and secrecy regarding this, and victims
such as I are being subjected to uncontrolled and unacknowledged
torture and mental and physical destruction. This has remained
completely unreported and undiscussed publicly. There are many others,
all over the world, who are being subjected to similar torture and
abuse – some of us are being subjected to the most extreme and
totalitarian violations of human rights in human history
As well as being inhumane and criminal the crimes being committed
against us are contrary to the Principles and Values of all the major
religions and ethical systems - and yet our appeals for justice,
protection, assistance and/or publicity to Government Representatives,
Government Officials, Government Agencies, International
Organisations, Human Rights Organisations, Universities, Scientific
and other Institutions, and the International Media have been almost
completely ignored and/or suppressed. For anyone at all concerned
about human rights, liberty, democracy, privacy, the rule of law and
ALL aspects and degrees of human freedom, individuality and mental and
physical integrity and health this uncontrolled and unacknowledged
technology and torture and abuse is intolerable! Your attention and
assistance is urgently needed to halt these atrocities, control and
regulate the use of these technologies, and to bring these extremist
elements to justice.
I DEMAND AN INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATION INTO THESE CRIMES AND HUGE
VIOLATIONS OF HUMAN RIGHTS.

TARGETED INDIVIDUAL and a member of THE WORLDWIDE CAMPAIGN AGAINST
TORTURE AND ABUSE USING DIRECTED ENERGY AND NEUROLOGICAL WEAPONS .
I SUPPORT THE WORLDWIDE CAMPAIGN AGAINST TORTURE AND ABUSE USING
DIRECTED ENERGY AND NEUROLOGICAL WEAPONS.
I would like to draw your attention to some extreme and horrendous
criminality being conducted with the involvement of United States
Government-related Agencies and the complicity, if not participation,
of many other governments, security agencies and/or shadowy
organisations - involving the use of DIRECTED ENERGY AND NEUROLOGICAL
WEAPONS on defenceless people.
I can confirm that the technical abilities and powers to:-
1. place a human subject under continuous surveillance, no matter
where he/she is, from remote locations.
2. continuously monitor a human brain from remote locations, including
thought, reaction, motor command, auditory event and visual image
reading
3. continuously input directly into a human brain from remote
locations, including the ability to override, control and alter
consciousness, and to introduce voices, noises, other disturbances,
images and "dreams" into the brain
4. directly interfere with, abuse, torture and hit bodies - including
performing advanced medical procedures - and objects - from remote
locations
5. directly interfere with, alter, insert etc. data, files,
communications and legal evidence from remote locations - even during
transmission
6. make live TV, and other screens and monitors, two-way – for
surveillance, invasion of privacy etc..
7. control the flow of information and orchestrate the media –
worldwide.
ARE ALREADY IN EXISTENCE AND ARE ALREADY BEING ABUSED!
There is massive ignorance and secrecy regarding this, and victims
such as I are being subjected to uncontrolled and unacknowledged
torture and mental and physical destruction. This has remained
completely unreported and undiscussed publicly. There are many others,
all over the world, who are being subjected to similar torture and
abuse – some of us are being subjected to the most extreme and
totalitarian violations of human rights in human history
As well as being inhumane and criminal the crimes being committed
against us are contrary to the Principles and Values of all the major
religions and ethical systems - and yet our appeals for justice,
protection, assistance and/or publicity to Government Representatives,
Government Officials, Government Agencies, International
Organisations, Human Rights Organisations, Universities, Scientific
and other Institutions, and the International Media have been almost
completely ignored and/or suppressed. For anyone at all concerned
about human rights, liberty, democracy, privacy, the rule of law and
ALL aspects and degrees of human freedom, individuality and mental and
physical integrity and health this uncontrolled and unacknowledged
technology and torture and abuse is intolerable! Your attention and
assistance is urgently needed to halt these atrocities, control and
regulate the use of these technologies, and to bring these extremist
elements to justice.
I DEMAND AN INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATION INTO THESE CRIMES AND HUGE
VIOLATIONS OF HUMAN RIGHTS.
Oh yeah, now ya tell me, after I already threw away my aluminum foil
beannie!

VW Jetta Diesel.
If you want to look at gas, a Honda Insight may be OK. They're not as
popular as the Prius (only 2 seats), so that may make them cheaper on the
used-car market.
A first-generation Prius (based on the Echo) may be an option, too, for the
same reason.

The local Costco sells Noah's bagels (baked fresh every day, not
frozen). Noah has several bagel shops. They're just as good and just
as fresh if you buy them at Costco. Minimum quantity 1 dozen, 2
packages of 6 each. Bagels freeze really nicely, much better than bread.

No oil, you're thinking of doughnuts. You boil and then bake bagels.
When I shop at Costco, I go up and down all the aisles to see if there's
anything I want at the price required. I do the same at the
99-Cents-Only Store. I don't regard this as wasting money but as
enriching my life.

From: Jitney
It is hard to find statistics on the mortgage crisis, so I'm making an
estimate. There are about 100 million households in the USA, assuming
10% are in default or foreclosure, which I think is a high estimate,
subtracting rentals from the 100 million (if you can refute me from a
credible authority, I would love to be corrected). Ten million divided
into 700 billion works out to $700,000 per distressed property, which
should on the average buy out each property twice. What is happening
to the rest? I think this is a massive raid on the US treasury, with a
threat of a Great Depression if we don't pay up, and that isn't even
counting AIG, Countrywide, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Bear Stearns.
Wall Street is stealing more than the Huns that raided the Roman
Empire, with similar results. And this is not the end. Congress forked
over 25 Billion to the automakers, the airlines are next, and who
then? Ben and Jerries? We are looking at a new Dark Ages.

Nope, your math is indeed faulty. $700B/10M is $70,000.
If you have 10 million properties in default, it doesn't matter
whether they are rentals or not. Somebody owns them and may have a
mortgage.
Also, how about commercial properties that can be valued in the
millions?
I think this is way beyond your comprehension. Just bend over and
enjoy.

OK, what you are missing is this... banks don't just make money by
underwriting mortgages. Some bad mortgages were made, but some bad
INVESTMENTS were made, also. The distressed banks are in trouble due to
mis-management of corporate funds. PART of that mis-management (5%?,
maybe?) was in the form of certain mortgages that never should have been
under-written. This isn't a mortgage crisis, that is just one symptom. It
is a corporate crisis, where certain banks are in trouble, and some of them
happen to hold mortgage notes which may or may not ever get paid off.

If they had the money to lend it would be a write off.
They didn't have the money. They didn't even have a fraction to back
the loans. The share holders should sue the stocking off them except
they knew the game and thought they could make money where there was none.
They are going to print or at least put some decimal points on the
computers suggesting money. The value of everything we own will take a
dump along with the dollar. A ten dollar hamburger will be a bargain.
The people that made all this happen skate while we try to pay of a
10,000,000,000,000.00+ debt.
This is government of by and for unregulated global business. Aren't
they terrific economists? Are they this stupid? Is globalism not just
about raiding our wealth?
Is anyone building a new rope factory?

Massachusetts, voter initiative to eliminate the state income
tax..will cut state budget by 45%, gets massive govt support.... the
states civil service unions have unlimited funds to fight the
measure. I suppose they want to bankrupt the middle class before
any correction occurs.
***
This mess had its personal beginning with me a few years ago when I
got a bogus speeding ticket, then the judge allowed it to stand in
court even after the officer said he guessed at my speed because he
could not see the section of road he said I was speeding on.
I did a T shirt campaign on the issue of bogus tickets. money needed
to fund 150k a year police retirements... total fraud imo...
Reposted:
This will cut the states income by 45%...and since a majority of that
goes for fire, police, prision guards, and half of that for their
killer retirement packages...
will all but cut the balls off of such govt bloat and high living at
the expense of the dying middle class.
too bad. .. it has massive voter support.
search google news for 'Massachusets, income tax, 45%, New york times'
should get the article.
Odd this killer news was not found on google or in the SF papers...
pooooof...not a single mention. but filling page 15 of the New
York Times, Sept 28th issue.
The people of massachusetts have had it. As this economic fraud
mess keeps going south you will see other states with similar
initiatives on their ballots.
The burden will then go onto the cities, many in the US already
filing
bankrupcy and we have not even begun to see the worst. 80% of
those
budgets are fire and police...and half of that to pay their 100k+
retirements and 100% health care (funded by tax payers , half of whom
cant afford health insurance).
Since these in both cases are the bulk of govt expendatures, it is
their grossly out of line retirement packages etc that have caused
much of the problem...along with other fat ass, snivel servant...
govt
bloat issues.
as Ive been mentioning for some time now, and on the T shirts (that
sell well nationally)... that bogusness, and those bogus traffic
tickets etc...wont fly much longer.
Maybe I need to add a t shirt line about getting this initative into
all states...and maybe a similar one for federal govt. seeing as how
they sabataged me in court on that bogus speeding ticket... lying
about pore ol philsie here hauling ass in the McArthur tunnel.
Next is property taxes going to rip off levels
as more and more home owners go out of work and cant borrow on their
house anymore, and cant afford fuel to get to work and eat well at
the
same time... thats not going to fly either... no money honey.
Issuing bogus tickets these cant pay wont work either...neither will
slowing them all down to 35... grid lock is not a solution to
government bloat.
something has to give... as in compton california...they laid off
their entire police force years ago... the county sherrif covers the
area now.
what will fly is an 80% reduction in the size of govt....the police
can spend their time chasing down criminals, not trying to raise
money
with bogus speeding tickets. I dont think many of these are
laughing anymore.
