- On Hacker News, an online forum for techies, WrkRiot’s tale has exploded into one of the most popular threads, attracting more than 500 comments, including one from a poster who said that the start-up’s experience “is pretty much a rite of passage here.” Tech blogs have also seized the tale; one called it “one of the ugliest start-up stories we’ve ever heard.”

Penny Kim, the former head of marketing at WrkRiot who wrote about her experience at the company, including the forgery allegations, said, “I’d heard stories about late paychecks or start-ups failing, but who expects fraud in Silicon Valley?”
WrkRiot terminated Ms. Kim’s employment in mid-August after she filed a wage claim. She has since filed a retaliation complaint against the company and moved to Dallas, where she previously lived.

In an interview this week, Mr. Choi, 35, said WrkRiot, which is based in Santa Clara, Calif., near where Intel has its headquarters, was “like any company. If you want to talk start-ups, all start-ups have problems.” When asked about the forgery claims, Mr. Choi said Ms. Kim was a disgruntled employee who was fired for cause and that the accusations were “unfair to my guys.”
Along with the start-up, Mr. Choi’s personal credibility is on the line. As he built WrkRiot, the entrepreneur said that he graduated from the Stern School of Business at New York University and that he worked at J. P. Morgan for nearly four years as an analyst. N.Y.U. and J. P. Morgan both said they had no record of Mr. Choi. At least one company listed on his LinkedIn profile also could not be found.
Mr. Choi, whose LinkedIn profile has since been wiped clean, did not respond to questions about his résumé. His lawyer, Bernard Fishman, said he was not aware of the allegations against WrkRiot until contacted by The New York Times.
Mr. Choi set up his start-up in June 2015 under the name 1For.One, with a mission of helping people find the perfect job online. He brought...
- I Got Scammed By A Silicon Valley Startup
Telling my story isn’t going to be easy. Oftentimes I feel embarrassed, enraged, and regretful when I have to relive it, but in the end it is a story and life lesson which should be shared so that others may know major red flags to look out for when choosing to work for a startup or new business. What you are about to read is true and happened within the last four months. The names have been changed to protect the innocent and guilty.
Hook, Line & Sinker
It all started in May 2016 when I was searching Angel.co for opportunities in the Bay Area while living in Dallas. I applied for a Marketing Director position with Startup X and soon received an invitation to interview with the CTO. I took the initial phone screen in Los Angeles where I happened to be, and he asked me to fly out the next day to meet in Santa Clara. The responsibility of the less-than-24-hours flight wasn’t addressed, so I asked who would be covering it. When the CTO asked me to book it and told me it would be reimbursed later, I was hesitant and skeptical but followed through with blind faith. There’s no way a startup I found on Angel.co is going to screw me over, I thought. The next day, I was in Startup X’s office meeting the co-founders and small dev team of 8.
Michael, the CEO, introduced himself as the owner of a successful international mining business group, a millionaire investor, and a former JPMorgan analyst. Charlie, the CTO, founded his first startup right out of college, sold one in the past few years, and worked with IBM. Both men pitched their experience to me more than their product (I later learn this is a recurring theme in investor meetings), nevertheless I thought they had a viable idea and one that I was interested in building. They told me that I would have $4M for the marketing budget and carte blanche to build my team. They seemed like veteran entrepreneurs, the kind I could trust, but one thing that would later haunt me was something Charlie said. When I asked...
- A little-known startup is in meltdown mode after a former employee took to Medium to accuse the company of scamming her out of her wages and firing her in retaliation after she filed a wage claim to recoup the unpaid cash. The Medium post was widely shared online; in response, the company shuttered its website and threatened legal action against the writer, calling her “a disgruntled former employee.”
Although the former employee, a digital marketer named Penny Kim, referred to the company as Startup X in her post, internet sleuths quickly discovered the company’s actual name: WrkRiot . Several other company advisors and employees have since come forward to share their own (largely negative) experiences with WrkRiot and its founder, Isaac Choi.
Kim agreed to move from her home in Texas to California for a marketing job at WrkRiot, which would pay her “a $10,000 sign on bonus (relocation assistance), a $135,000 salary, equity, and a 3 month severance package if I were to leave for good reason and without cause,” Kim wrote. However, the money never came through. Choi constantly gave excuses for the late payroll, according to Kim, and at one point forged a wire transfer confirmation that he emailed to employees. Another employee told Kim that Choi’s money was tied up in an IRS claim. After months of late or missing payroll, Kim filed a wage claim and says she was fired in retaliation.
The saga serves as a cautionary tale for startup employees: beware of founders who can’t back up their claims and ask to borrow money from their employees, Kim warned. But it’s also a warning signal for founders: Don’t mess with your employees’ money, or they’ll expose you on Medium.
Medium has become a clearinghouse for tech employees to air their grievances and hold employers accountable. In February, a Yelp worker named Talia Jane wrote a lengthy post accusing the company of underpaying its employees and setting them up for failure in the expensive Bay Area economy. The post stirred up controversy for Yelp (and...
- Juliana Coutinho/flickr.com Penny Kim, a marketing professional with a one-month career at a Silicon Valley startup, shared a detailed account of one of the ugliest startup stories we've ever heard.
Her tale started with a job offer in July of $135,000 a year plus equity and a $10,000 signing bonus for relocation expenses. (She was moving from Dallas for the job.)
It ended with her dismissal in August after she filed a complaint with the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement over failure to properly pay her, and an account of her month at the startup — which she did not name — on Startup Grind, entitled, "I Got Scammed By A Silicon Valley Startup." Her story has been a big topic of discussion on Hacker News for the last couple of days.
Business Insider spoke to Al Brown, former CTO and one of the founders of the startup, which was called 1for.one and JobSonic and recently renamed itself WrkRiot. (He's the one Kim called "Charlie" in her story.)
Brown confirmed much of her account, even the most outrageous accusation: The CEO she dubbed "Michael," whose LinkedIn profile identifies him as Isaac Choi, gave employees fake receipts for money wire transfers to convince them the company had paid their back wages when in fact it hadn't.
Until this week, the company was still in business and still had employees, Brown says. It's unclear if it still is or does.
When one of the company's advisers heard Kim's tale, he published the company's name, posted an apology letter, and declared he was no longer associated. Shortly after that, the company's website went offline.
The CEO and cofounder has not responded to Business Insider's requests for comment through multiple channels — email, social media, and phone.
The company's website, Facebook, and Twitter accounts were not online as of Tuesday morning, and its LinkedIn page has no contact information on it other than a headquarters address.
Caught in the lie
The most startling allegation is that the company tried to trick... | Just a month after starting at a Silicon Valley startup, a marketing professional from Dallas has taken to Medium to accuse her already former employer of fraud and more—and the startup is suddenly scrubbing its online presence clean. Penny Kim detailed her life since a July 2016 job offer—which included promises of a $135,000 salary, equity, and a $10,000 signing bonus—with an initially anonymous firm that readers quickly sorted out is WrkRiot. The details of Kim's "horrible nightmare" are so dismal that Business Insider is calling it "one of the ugliest start-up stories we've ever heard," though for his part WrkRiot founder Isaac Choi tells the New York Times that Kim is just a "disgruntled" former employee with an ax to grind. WrkRiot, which promised to help people find the perfect job, has since gone offline. In the days since Kim published her exposé, which she says she wrote "so that others may know major red flags to look out for when choosing to work for a startup," people like Daniel Tunkelang, a data scientist who advised WrkRiot as well as Pinterest and Etsy, have been publicly denouncing the startup. Meanwhile, the very resume of Choi, including where he went to business school, is being called into question. Among other things, Kim alleges that the company forged wire-transfer receipts from a bank to dupe employees into thinking the company had issued paychecks, when it actually hadn't. She also says the company had no clear vision and was repeatedly rejected by investors. Tech Crunch calls the firm "in meltdown mode" as the WrkRiot Twitter, Facebook, and business sites, as well as Choi's LinkedIn page, have all been wiped clean.

Orlando: A Biography is a novel by Virginia Woolf, first published on 11 October 1928. A high-spirited romp inspired by the tumultuous family history of Woolf's lover and close friend the aristocratic poet and novelist Vita Sackville-West, it is arguably one of Woolf's most popular novels: a history of English literature in satiric form. The book describes the adventures of a poet who changes sex from man to woman and lives for centuries, meeting the key figures of English literary history. Considered a feminist classic, the book has been written about extensively by scholars of women's writing and gender and transgender studies.

Lembre-se de que as tempestades podem estar piores ou menos fortes quando chegarem à sua região. Preparar-se para o dilúvio pode ajudar a enfrentá-la quando chegar. Geralmente, as áreas vermelhas e amarelas do mapa significam apenas chuva forte, não raios e trovões.

What is the answer for the question: What's the profession of the man that has tells the farmer's daughter of his affections? from the following article ?
The film begins as Emma, a young woman not yet 18, is packing up her belongings and preparing to leave the convent to marry the man her farmer father has arranged as her husband: country doctor Charles Bovary. But she becomes bored and miserable in the small, provincial town of Yonville. She spends most of her time alone, reading or wandering in the garden while Charles tends to patients. Even when he's home, he either bores or neglects Emma.
Emma longs for more—excitement, passion, status, and love. She shows restraint at first, when smitten law clerk Leon Dupuis skittishly professes his affections for her. But she is intrigued by the dashing Marquis, who makes more overt advances. Their affair emboldens her as she believes it gives her glimpse of the good life. She spends money she doesn't have on lavish dresses and decorations from the obsequious dry-goods dealer Monsieur Lheureux, who's all too happy to continue extending her credit. | law clerk | eng | train | xP3 | Multitask |
Review text:
FINALLY, I sample the notorious Fatburger, which we don't have up in the Bay Area. And my reaction was--OK.\n\nYes, the burger was Fat. The fries were also Fat, but that's the way I picked them, and I did like them. Simple, potatoey, and no weird coating on the outside like some competitors' fries.\n\nI guess if you desperately need a fast food burger and you're in the gravitational pull of a Fatburger, you could do worse. I prefer it to Fuddruckers and might even take it over In-n-Out, but Jeffrey's and Val's in the Bay Area are far better burgers to my taste.\n\nThis particular Fatburger seems to be brand new and part of a sprawling outdoor mall here on the edge of the desert north of Scottsdale. It won't be the edge of the desert for long, of course, since Great Phoenix seems to grow like creepy fingers of killer space fungus in a Sci-Fi movie of some kind. By this time next year it will be 20 miles in from the northern edge of Greater Phoenix, and the locals will see it as a quaint relic of bygone times in an aging layer of this megalopolis.

Plot title: Invasion of the Body Snatchers
Movie plot: On an unidentified planet, a strange lifeform in the shape of gel-like spores drifts up into the atmosphere, where it moves slowly through space, drifting until it reaches Earth. The spores enter the atmosphere and are swept downward, emerging in a rainstorm in San Francisco. On the ground, the spores begin to develop, growing on leaves of earthly plants and taking the shape of small pods with a pink flower in the middle.Elizabeth Driscoll (Brooke Adams) notices one of the pods, taking it back to the home she shares with her boyfriend, Geoffrey (Art Hindle). Unable to find the flowering pod in any of her botany books, she hesitantly identifies her new find as a cross-breeding of two different species, a "grex."Matthew Bennell (Donald Sutherland) is an inspector for the health department who uncovers unsanitary conditions at a French restaurant. As he threatens the owner with indictment over finding rat droppings in the food, the other employees quietly slip out to the parking lot and smash Matthew's windshield with a bottle of wine. Matthew is cold and calculating, refusing to let them see his frustration at finding his car vandalized, but when he gets home he calls Elizabeth. They work together at the health department, and Matthew jokes with her about what happened to him at the restaurant. As Elizabeth goes to bed, she forgets about the weird pod, which has suddenly sprouted roots in the glass of water she keeps it in next to their bed.When Elizabeth wakes the next morning, Geoffrey is already awake and dressed, cleaning up the remains of the glass of water next to the bed, as well as some other, unidentifiable mess (resembling some kind of dust). His behavior is strange, and she follows him downstairs as he takes a plastic garbage bag out to a waiting dump truck. At work, she confides to Matthew that Geoffrey is acting strange. Later that night, Elizabeth tries to talk it over with Geoffrey but he ignores her, instead telling her that he's going out and giving her no explanation. Elizabeth touches him...

With 4:51 left in regulation, Carolina got the ball on their own 24-yard line with a chance to mount a game-winning drive, and soon faced 3rd-and-9. On the next play, Miller stripped the ball away from Newton, and after several players dove for it, it took a long bounce backwards and was recovered by Ward, who returned it five yards to the Panthers 4-yard line. Although several players dove into the pile to attempt to recover it, Newton did not and his lack of aggression later earned him heavy criticism. Meanwhile, Denver's offense was kept out of the end zone for three plays, but a holding penalty on cornerback Josh Norman gave the Broncos a new set of downs. Then Anderson scored on a 2-yard touchdown run and Manning completed a pass to Bennie Fowler for a 2-point conversion, giving Denver a 24–10 lead with 3:08 left and essentially putting the game away. Carolina had two more drives, but failed to get a first down on each one.

I was seventeen, almost eighteen, the first time I killed someone.
It was kind of an accident, in the same way that bubble gum is kind of a food. I hadn't set out to kill him, honestly, but I wasn't exactly trying not to kill him either.
To be fair, the guy was trying to kill me first. That I had most likely broken his arm and nose before he tried to kill me would probably have been brought up by the prosecution at my murder trial, if there had ever been one. If there had been, though, I or my overpriced attorney (I'm assuming that if I had one, he would be overpriced) would have mentioned the extreme duress I was under. My father had recently died, my school life had gone completely out of control, I had more than a little bit of pepper spray in my eyes, and I was acting to defend my life and the life of the girl I was with.
But alas, there was no murder trial. There was hardly an investigation, really. As an average teenager, that night would have probably been the high -- or low -- point of my young, naive life. It would probably have been the topic of discussion in a lifetime of counseling and group therapy. It might have motivated a period of heavy drug use and the abandonment of friends and family, followed by an inspirational recovery that I might later write about in a best-selling autobiography, that would surely be described by Newsweek magazine as, "A haunting, yet uplifting story of tragedy and the re-discovery of life that every person, young and old, must read." My life wouldn't move in that direction, though.
Being put in a situation where you have to decide whether or not to probably kill someone to protect your own life should have affected me profoundly, but it didn't. It bounced off me like rain off glass.
Around two weeks later, when I killed someone again, this time much more deliberately, I was affected even less. There was no murder trial for that one, either.

Question: Stanley pulls his victim back up out of the water by what?
If there is no answer, please output "Insufficient information to provide an answer.".
Movie title: Cabin by the Lake
Context: Stanley (Judd Nelson) is a reclusive screenwriter who lives by a beautiful and large lake. His hobby is kidnapping teenage girls, imprisoning them in a soundproof room with a two-way mirror, then taking them out to the lake on his boat, attaching their feet to a concrete block and pushing them overboard (he asks them how they feel knowing they are about to die). He particularly likes to reach into the water, grab them by their hair and pull them up again so he can study their faces more carefully, before dropping them again permanantly.Stanley has at least five or six of these bodies floating in the lake, ranging in decomp status from skeleton to perfect flesh. Each is dressed in a different outfit. Stanley likes to scuba out to his "garden" every day and clean any detritus accumulating around their bodies, and to make sure their costumes stay in place as they rot.Stanley is doing this because he is "researching" for his latest script; called The Cabin on the Lake, it is about a man who kidnaps girls and drowns them in a lake. He has already sold this script through an agent, and a director is going to make it shortly.One girl, Mallory (Hedy Burress) manages to escape from drowning and is rescued by handsome sherriff Boone (Michael Weatherley from NCIS). She is unable to identify her kidnapper, however she creates a sketch with an artist. Boone comments how similar to his good friend Stan the sketch looks.The local law enforcment team decides that in order to catch the kidnapper they will take Mallory to a local creature-creation business which molds fake latex bodies for use in movies. Two SPFX artists make a full body cast of Mallory and hide a video camera inside one eyeball. The cops take it out to the lake and leave it in Mallory's place.

Leaving the game and going back to it will often cause the app to open up as just a white screen.

What are the key points across these news articles:
Article: (CNN) An American and his family who were living in territory held by ISIS in Syria have been detained in Turkey, a senior Turkish official told CNN.
The official said that Kary Paul Kleman was detained after surrendering to border guards at the Oncupinar crossing in Kilis. He was accompanied by his wife, a Syrian national, and three children.
"Our initial assessment is that he along with his family members was compelled to escape the conflict zone following airstrikes and military operations against ISIS," the Turkish official told CNN.
A US official confirmed Kleman was arrested trying to cross back into Turkey through Killis alongside a British national and that man's wife.
Because of the large number of foreign fighters that have transited across the Syrian-Turkey border , Turkey has detained a significant number of individuals crossing back into Turkey from Syria, to question them about their time there.
According to the Guardian newspaper, which was the first to report on Kleman's detention at the Turkish border, he was previously a Florida resident. Kleman's family told the newspaper he converted to Islam after divorcing his first wife and moved to the Middle East in 2011.
The family said he traveled to Syria in 2015 to help with humanitarian efforts, but after he arrived there he realized the information that had led him there "was all a scam," the Guardian reported. The family told the newspaper he had recently been in contact with US officials in Turkey, and had planned to reach the American embassy there and return to the US. Relatives said they alerted the FBI that he may be in danger about 18 months ago, and they had told the family they were vetting whether he had become involved in any wrongdoing, the Guardian reported.
CNN on Wednesday communicated with a smuggler in Azaz, Syria who says he spent time with Kleman in Syria, after the family escaped from ISIS-controlled territory about six months ago. Azaz is just across the border from Killis. He told CNN he also...
Article: Exclusive: Two Britons and one US citizen are among dozens who have surrendered or been caught at Turkish border
Large numbers of foreign fighters and sympathisers are abandoning Islamic State and trying to enter Turkey, with at least two British nationals and a US citizen joining an exodus that is depleting the ranks of the terror group.
Stefan Aristidou, from Enfield in north London, his British wife and Kary Paul Kleman, from Florida, last week surrendered to Turkish border police after more than two years in areas controlled by Isis, sources have confirmed to the Guardian.
Dozens more foreigners have fled in recent weeks, most caught as they tried to cross the frontier, as Isis’s capacity to hold ground in Syria and Iraq collapses. Some – it is not known how many – are thought to have evaded capture and made it across the border into Turkey.
Aristidou, who is believed to be in his mid-20s, surrendered at the Kilis crossing in southern Turkey along with his wife – said to be a British woman of Bangladeshi heritage – and Kleman, 46. The American had arrived at the border with a Syrian wife and two Egyptian women, whose spouses had been killed in Syria or Iraq, Turkish officials said.
Aristidou said he had travelled to Syria to settle rather than fight. The officials said he had admitted to having been based in Raqqa and al-Bab, both of which had been Isis strongholds until al-Bab was recaptured by Turkish-backed Syrian opposition forces earlier this year. He went missing in April 2015 after flying to Larnaca in Cyprus. Neighbours told the Guardian that he had adopted Islamic dress shortly before he disappeared.
A spokeswoman for the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office said: “We are in contact with the Turkish authorities following the detention of a British man on the Turkey/Syria border.”
It is understood Turkish authorities released the British woman from custody, although she could still face charges. Prosecutors in the country are seeking sentences of between seven and a... | ISIS is steadily losing territory in Iraq and Syria, and a lot of foreign fighters are apparently having second thoughts about fighting to the death for it. The Guardian reports that officials in Turkey and Europe say large numbers of foreign fighters are abandoning the group and trying to flee, especially now that an offensive is closing in on Raqqa, Syria, where many foreigners who joined the "caliphate" were based. Officials believe those fleeing include foreign fighters who have renounced the group, people who weren't fighters but found themselves living in ISIS territory, and hardcore militants suspected of planning terrorist attacks in their homelands. Sources tell the Guardian that the latest foreigners to surrender to Turkish border police include a British couple and US citizen Kary Paul Kleman. A Turkish official confirmed to CNN that Kleman, a former Florida resident, was detained after arriving at the border with his Syrian wife and their three children. Authorities believe he "was compelled to escape the conflict zone following airstrikes and military operations against ISIS," the official says. Kleman's family says he converted to Islam after moving to the Middle East in 2011. They say he went to Syria in 2015 to help with humanitarian efforts but soon realized it was a "scam" and started trying to escape the country. | eng | train | xP3 | Multitask |

Look, if I were interested in a Nancy Drew book, what I would do is pick up a book and read it. I'm not. Ever since I can remember I read people trashing movies because it wasn't like the book. I'm sorry - in the digital age we can no longer watch movies on flip books, however I'm sure you can still find a few short silent films in book form. When Lord of the Rings came out, people complained. When the third one won an Oscar - "The book was better." When I watched To Kill a Mockingbird, "the book was better." Now a bunch of people are upset, yet again, because Nancy Drew wasn't like the book. I'm not saying Nancy Drew is going to win any Oscars - if anything it'll be one of those Nickelodeon Blimps or Kids Choice Awards. I'm saying give film a break. It's film, not paper. As a movie, I found Nancy Drew quite enjoyable - featuring cameos from Bruce Willis and Adam Goldberg (The Hebrew Hammer) and supporting roles featuring Tate Donovan (Jimmy Cooper on the O.C.) and Rachel Leigh Cook (She's All That). This is the first time I've seen Emma Roberts in a movie and, frankly, I enjoy her work more than most of Julia and of Eric's; her character stays consistent throughout the film and reacts well with conflict.

Alex is a darkly sinister thug driving around New York City at night when he spots a young woman, Susan, driving alongside him. He follows her to a nearby park where he cuts her off, gets out of his car, and runs into hers where he throws her into the back seat and proceeds to savagely rape her before strangling her to death. He takes her locket as a trophy to another one of his many killings.
Some time later, serial killer/rapist Alex is with his working-class friend Ricky, both of whom work in a local mechanic garage which is closing up for the evening. Alex is planning to go 'boogying' at a local disco and Ricky is tagging along. Suddenly, a large Cadillac vehicle pulls into the underground garage which contains a young, well-dressed yuppie couple named Tom and his girlfriend Lisa where they ask for assistance for their car's motor is making strange sounds. Alex refuses to help them saying that the garage is closed, and continues to refuse assistance even after Tom offers him money. But the slow-witted Ricky decides to help the couple and upon checking under the hood, finds a loose wire on the alternator and fixes it. Grateful, Tom tells Alex and Ricky that they are driving to a friend's house in New Jersey for a party, and Alex asks them if he and Ricky could tag along, and Tom agrees. Before closing up the garage for the night, Alex stops by his locker which is filled with various weapons he uses to kill people. Alex picks out just one; a straight-edged razor, before closing up and getting into Tom and Lisa's car with Ricky for the drive to New Jersey.

Imaginary 3 stars review: | My 100th review is a tribute to \"street food\" - Tacos El Compita is in a strip center, and was fast and authentic. We were limited on cash (forgot it was cash only in other reviews), but scraped together enough for a 5-taco plate (I got the juicy tongue/lengua, and the boy had 2 beef, 1 carnitas and 1 pollo), a side of sliced avocado, and 1 Mexican coke (bf only drinks h2o). The food was fast, the salsa bar very nice (radishes, whole raw jalepenos, pico, onions and cilantro, very spicy salsas - loved the green especially). The tacos had onions and salsa on them, and my poor bf doesn't do spicy food too well, so he got the avocado to cool him down while I was dipping it in the green sauce!\n\nThis place is cheap and yummy, a solid bet. I would definitely return when I have cash. The salsa bar had cups with lids so if we hadn't been on our way to Popcorn Girl, I would've taken some green salsa home! I ate only one taco due to our limited budget and the bf's big appetite, but next time I may try a torta (highly recommended by the lady in front of us). The guy sitting right behind me was selling pirated CDs and peliculas :) No one seemed to bite every time they walked in and he called CDs! Peliculas! CDs!

Before you begin upgrading or changing the hardware in your computer, you should know what your machine is capable of. As a general rule, PCs have much more flexibility than Macs by default, though newer models of Macs allow some hardware customization. Your best bet is to take your computer in to any Apple store or Best Buy tech department. They should be able to tell you exactly what your computer can and can't support based on its model; know this information before you proceed. For example, while some Macs let you change or add RAM, the MacBook Air and Retina MacBook Pro are fixed--you can't upgrade the RAM on these models. Invariably, dust will end up in your computer's inner parts. Though an extensive cleaning usually mandates professional experience with hardware, anybody can vacuum off their keyboard and the side vents to improve your computer's circulation. If you haven't ever had your computer cleaned, especially if it's a few years old, taking it to a specialist to have it scrubbed is a great way to seriously improve your computer's performance. Random Access Memory, or RAM, is one of the key components in processing information. Logically, the more RAM you have, the more wiggle room your system has for spikes in memory usage. Upgrading your RAM is often cheaper and more immediately effective than changing out your hard drive. RAM is especially important to upgrade if you're using your computer for gaming or video editing. While many PCs have up to four RAM slots for a grand total of up to 16 gigabytes of RAM possible, Macs are much more limited, with most Macs using around three gigabytes of RAM. If you use hefty programs and files on a daily basis, you're bound to notice a fair amount of slowdown; the aforementioned tech departments will happily recommend a pertinent hard drive model. If you don't want to have a third party install the hard drive for you, this article will tell you how to install a PC hard drive. If you're replacing your only hard drive, be sure to back up your files before...

After you have finished playing the dizi, use a soft cloth to wipe it dry. You may use a long rod to push a cloth inside the dizi to catch excess moisture. Cloth bags, plastic airtight bags, or hard-covered soft-lined cases are ideal containers in which to store a dizi. Bamboo flutes are susceptible to expanding or contracting depending on temperature and humidity. Do not place in direct sunlight such as on a windowsill, as this will likely lead to cracked bamboo. If you are taking the dizi outside on a cold day, allow the flute to acclimatize before playing it. Since moisture may gather in the dizi, even if you’ve dried it, fungus spores may start to grow. Use food grade hydrogen peroxide to spot clean the flute to eliminate fungus growth. Some flute owners choose to oil their dizis with almond oil 3-4 times per year. It is best to wait until the flute is completely free of moisture (i.e., waiting a day after playing and drying it) before applying oil. Use just a bit of oil and rub it into the dizi with a soft cloth. You may also choose to oil the inside of the flute as well. Allow to dry completely before playing.

Article: Walgreens shoppers could pay up to 55 percent more for products at stores in the same city, according to a study by a consumer watchdog group released Thursday.
The huge price discrepancies were discovered in a study of four major markets: New York, Los Angeles, Orange County, Calif., and Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas. Researchers bought a basket of 25 items ranging from coffee to diapers at 485 CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid locations in those areas.
Walgreens stores were five times more likely than its competitors to charge different prices for a certain product in the same city, the report said. In every market surveyed, researchers also said they found Walgreens to have the biggest price differences among its stores.
The report was released by Change to Win Retail Initiatives and the National Consumers League. They recommend consumers ask about price matching and avoid Walgreens flagship stores, which showed higher prices. In Chicago, Walgreens flagship stores are at State and Randolph Streets in the Loop and at North and Damen Avenues in Bucktown/Wicker Park.
Walgreen Co. spokesman Jim Graham said the company's prices "reflect the costs of doing business in the neighborhoods we serve as well as any nearby retail competition."
"Costs can vary from one location to another, even when they are a few blocks apart in dense urban areas, based on the store's cost of real estate, its hours of operation including whether it is open 24 hours, labor costs and the number of customers it serves each day, among other factors," he added.
Adjusting prices based on location or property values is common among national retail chains and not against the law.
The study comes a week after the Missouri Attorney General's office announced it is suing Walgreen Co. for allegedly overcharging customers and using false advertising.
The lawsuit stems from a two-month investigation by the office of Attorney General Chris Koster, in which the office said found a "pattern of advertising...
Article: Shop at the wrong Walgreens and you could end up paying significantly more than if you'd bought the exact same items at a store on the other side of town, a recent study found.
While some price variation occurs at Rite Aid (RAD) and CVS (CVS), Walgreens (WAG) was the worst offender, with a single item costing as much as 55% more depending on a store's location, according to a study of 485 drugstore locations in New York, Los Angeles, Orange County, Calif., and Dallas-Forth Worth by the National Consumers League and labor union coalition Change to Win.
The study was based on the listed prices for a basket of 25 items, ranging from Tropicana Pure Premium orange juice to Huggies "Little Movers" diapers. Depending on the city, the chain was up to five times more likely to have store locations in the same market that charged different prices.
"It's a wake-up call I think for consumers," said Sally Greenberg, executive director of the National Consumers League "The expectation is that you're going to have the same prices within a chain."
Related: Hospital bills show wide variations for same treatment
In Dallas-Fort Worth, for example, Walgreens shoppers could pay $3 more for Folgers coffee depending on the location they chose or $3.50 extra for cold medication.
In New York City, a box of 10 Claritin allergy tablets cost anywhere from $10.49 to $15.99 depending on the Walgreens store. The same bottle of eye drops, meanwhile, cost $9.99 at a location in Queens and $15.49 a subway ride away on 57th street in Manhattan.
The differences can add up. The basket of 25 items cost $38 -- or nearly 20% -- more at a Walgreens' flagship in New York City than it typically cost at other nearby locations.
Walgreens spokesman Jim Graham said in a statement that the store's prices reflect the company's cost of doing business in different neighborhoods.
"Costs can vary from one location to another, even when they are a few blocks apart in dense urban areas, based on the store's cost of real... | Thrifty shoppers, beware. A consumer watchdog group descended on New York, LA, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Orange County, and promptly went shopping, purchasing a list of 25 items from 485 CVS, Walgreens, and Rite Aid locations. What it found: Price differences of as much as 55% for the same product at Walgreens locations in the same city, reports the Chicago Tribune. (Price variations at CVS and Rite Aid weren't nearly so dramatic.) CNN shares some examples: A bottle of eye drops that cost $9.99 in Queens was $15.49 at a 57th Street location in Manhattan; the price of Folgers coffee varied as much as $3 at Dallas-Fort Worth locations. A Walgreens rep attributed the variance to the cost of real estate, hours of operation, labor costs, and the size of the customer base served by each location. (The Tribune notes that such price adjustments aren't illegal.) Change to Win and the National Consumers League—which released the report yesterday—advise customers to avoid flagship stores. CNN notes that the 25 items cost almost 20% more at a NYC flagship location as compared to other nearby Walgreens. | eng | train | xP3 | Multitask |

She said: 'I informed the school and social services straight away, and rang the police. I had to keep her off school because the school said it was appropriate for the boy to remain in classes. 'They said they needed to speak to the boy's parents and find out his side of the story. 'My daughter didn't really understand how bad it was. It has left her feeling very vulnerable. The way the school has acted makes her feel like she was in the wrong.' The girl's mother is also asking for a change to the law after police said they were powerless to act because the age of criminal responsibility in England is ten, and the boy is just six (posed by model) The woman added that there needs to be a change in the law as children are becoming 'sexualised' at a younger age, and said cases should be thoroughly investigated.

Note I used to come here alot since i was introduced to it 2 years ago. I brought friends and family here numerous times because we enjoyed good service and half way decent sushi but being AYCE it was one of the better places to go. Do not go here if you are expecting spectacular sushi remember it is AYCE. Just know I have never had an issue with them until yesterday. My family went there for Valentines day and know that they have been here before and loved it. This was one of the most horrible experiences that could have been. None of the cooked food or food that was ordered for the children, came out including the soup. They brought out the Sashimi and all of the cold sushi which was fine but when asked where the cooked food was they refused to make it until all the sushi was finished, and continued to bring out the sushi. When asked again about the rest of the food so the people who didn't like the raw food and kids could eat it ended up with the waitress ended up telling us they would not bring it out and that we were going to be charged for whatever was not finished. Now I understand charging for what was not finished but to just bring out what you are able to get done first and not bringing us the rest of our food is unprofessional and unlike what they have done in the past. After this experience it was decided my family will not come back ever again and I do not plan to bring anyone here for such horrible service. I need to find a new AYCE sushi place with half way decent sushi now. Sad because I really loved coming here and was actually here a month ago with my friend.

The following document has been corrupted. Tell me what "@placeholder" is referring to.
Document: One of the most dangerous asteroids on record zipped close by Earth last month. It made headlines on Thursday, when reports said that there's a chance it could strike our planet in less than 20 years. Such a collision could unleash a force as powerful as a couple of thousand atomic bombs. But NASA was quick to calm nerves and point out some very good news. The most dangerous known asteroids don't really pose much of a threat. And there are very few of them. Also, the chances that this one, which the Ukrainian astronomers who discovered it named 2013 TV135, will collide with Earth are extremely slim, NASA said in a statement it called "a reality check."

Diatomaceous earth is an ingredient in most of the bombs aimed at bed bugs; the shards of the shell (or powder) are microscopically sharp and puncture the thin, waxy, exoskeletons of these night-feeding demons, causing them to dehydrate and die, our eventual goal in all of this. You may also want to consider wearing more clothing when you sleep as well; and ladies, pull your hair back or put it in something because they will crawl into loose hair. Anything you can do to prevent them from getting to you, do it! Although bedbugs don't carry disease, and for most people, the bites are unnoticeable, for some they itch, and itch, and itch. Bedbugs can bite you anywhere. In fact, the small blood stains left as a result of rolling over and killing them is often what makes a lot of people realize they have a bed bug infestation in the first place. One place you may want to look at closely is in the folds of the bed-skirt. The last of them should die off in about a week, possibly two. But it may happen sooner than that; it all depends on the severity of the infestation.

Article: (EW.com ) -- It's official: Emma Stone will make her Broadway debut in the current Roundabout Theatre Company revival of "Cabaret." The 25-year-old will replace Oscar nominee Michelle Williams, who made her debut in the role of showgirl Sally Bowles when the revival opened at Studio 54 in April. Stone will take over as Sally beginning Nov. 11 (Williams exits Nov. 9) and will play the role until Feb. 1, 2015. EW: Full coverage of Broadway . Alan Cumming—who won a Tony Award for his portrayal of the show's Emcee in the 1998 Broadway production, which serves as the basis of this revival—will extend his run through March 29, 2015, thus confirming that yet another actress may get to tread the Cabaret boards before the show's run is through. EW: Emma Stone in talks to replace Michelle Williams in Broadway's 'Cabaret' Stone was linked to the show in 2013 during Roundabout's initial announcement, but film scheduling conflicts forced her to back out. Last week, word broke that she had entered negotiations to join the show when Williams vacates the iconic role.

The best that I can say about this film is that it was mildly amusing at times, and that it was an adequate time killer. Unfortunately, this film is also so annoying that I wanted to slap these characters around. This is the kind of film that is so sweet, it hurts your teeth. The intentions were good, I suppose, but things get awfully tiresome when the dialogue is SO nauseating.

Doc to summarize: Christmas sales have exceeded its own expectations and the company has raised its forecast for full-year profits to between £684m and £700m.
It has also announced a one-off dividend of 50p costing the firm £75m.
In the year ahead it expects to generate £300m of surplus cash which will be returned to shareholders.
In its trading update, Next said: "We are now faced with a question as to what to do with the accumulated surplus cash (we already generate more cash than can be invested productively in the on-going development of the business)."
Outperforming
Sales rose 11.9% between 1 November and 24 December compared with the same period last year, which the company said was "significantly" beyond its own expectations.
Investors cheered the trading statement and Next shares jumped 10% by the close of the London markets.
Among the Christmas trading updates released so far, Next, John Lewis and House of Fraser have all reported healthy sales.
Debenhams has been the major disappointment. On Tuesday, it warned that profits would be lower than forecast after weak Christmas sales.
Next said it had seen a particular improvement in sales of seasonal knitwear and nightwear.
Sales at its stores rose 7.7%, but like other rivals, it was online sales that really drove growth with a 21% gain between 1 November and 24 December compared with the previous year.
Next has now raised its annual profit guidance twice in six months. Back in October it had forecast profits of between £650m and £680m for the financial year, which runs to 25 January.
Analysts said that Next's strategy of not discounting before Christmas had paid off.
"Next's strategy of holding firm on pre-Christmas pricing augurs well for full-year earnings and the business remains one of the sector's outperformers, in stark contrast to some major competitors," said Bryan Roberts from Kantar Retail.

You can make this treatment by mixing one part honey with four parts distilled water in a bottle. Allow the honey and water to sit at room temperature for an hour. You can also add one to two teaspoons of cardamom, which also has bleaching properties, to your natural lightener. Wet your hair completely and then pour your mixture from the bottle onto your hair. When doing so, you should start from the root of your hair and work to the tip. For the honey's bleaching properties to stay active, you will need to keep your hair wet. You should consider wearing a shower cap for this purpose. You should allow your application to soak in for an hour or more before rinsing with conditioner. This can be done by mixing one part chopped rhubarb to four parts boiling water. Allow the contents to come to a boil, let it cool, and then strain the rhubarb from the mixture. Now your rhubarb solution is ready for application. You can further lighten your hair in the shower by using your natural rhubarb mix after shampooing, but before conditioning. Make sure to allow the solution to cool before applying. If you don't have rhubarb available to you, or if you don't feel comfortable making your own solution, many hair salons and product retailers sell ready-made rhubarb lightening solutions. By applying lemon juice to your hair throughout the day, and especially when you are in the sun, you can continue lighten your hair. The mixture of sunlight and lemon juice will slowly but surely help you achieve a lighter shade.

Content: Joe Ritchie-Bennett, 39, was killed in Reading's Forbury Gardens in June, along with James Furlong, 36, and David Wails, 49.
Khairi Saadallah was jailed for the rest of his life over the murders.
Robert Ritchie believes his brother's death could have been prevented and wants answers from the authorities.
Mr Ritchie, who spoke to the BBC from the family's home in Philadelphia in the US, said he felt "helpless" and had suffered "countless sleepless nights" since his brother's death.
"He didn't deserve to go out like that," he said.
"[It's] just like this horrible nightmare that you're living and you're going to wake up to someone shaking you saying 'hey, get up'.
"I have repeated nightmares of him being murdered the way that he was murdered. It's unbearable."
During his sentencing hearing, London's Old Bailey heard Saadallah "executed" Mr Furlong, Mr Wails and Mr Ritchie-Bennett as an "act of religious jihad" on the afternoon of 20 June.
It emerged after the attack that Saadallah, 26, was known to MI5, had told the government about his earlier involvement with a banned Libyan militia and had a long history of committing violent crimes.
Saadallah had been told just before his release from prison that the Home Office wanted to deport him, but it was not legally possible due to the situation in Libya.
Mr Ritchie joined the calls made by the father of Mr Furlong, Gary, for the home secretary to "tell us why" the killer was deemed safe to be free.
Mr Ritchie added the family was "not looking to assign blame to anyone other than the terrorist".
He said: "However, if missteps are uncovered, it is our great hope and desire that they will be properly remedied in a positive outcome, in so that this never occurs to anyone or their families ever again."

Sum the following article in brief: A terrorist attack in the UK linked to Islamic extremism is 'almost inevitable' in coming months, security chiefs have warned. Ministers are reportedly being briefed daily by security officials who have warned of a 'step change' in the threat posed by terrorism since the rise of the so-called Islamic State insurgency. Scotland Yard and MI5 believe they have foiled three plots in London in the past few months, two of which were said to have been urgent interventions to stop terrorists ready to strike. Scroll down for video . Tight security: Armed police patrol Whitehall during the Remembrance Sunday ceremony at the Cenotaph . Sniffing for trouble: Security was tight this year amid dire warnings of possible impending terror attacks . An unnamed source told The Times the killing of Fusilier Lee Rigby last year had taught extremists 'they only need a kitchen knife and a mobile phone to carry out a high-impact attack.' The warnings come after tight security at Remembrance Sunday, with the Queen appearing at the Cenotaph in Whitehall after it was locked down by dozens of visible armed police. A judge yesterday extended the detention of four suspects arrested in connection with an Islamist terror plot just two days earlier. Counter-terror police seized the men, aged 19 to 27, on Thursday night at locations across west London and High Wycombe in the Thames Valley area, Scotland Yard said. It is understood the men were plotting an attack on British soil. The timing of the arrests raised fears that Remembrance Sunday events in London were alleged targets, but sources told The Times the Queen was not a target.

Write a multi-choice question for the following article, with the given choices and answer:
Article: Children at school need this type of memory on a daily basis for a variety of tasks, such as following teachers' instructions or remembering oral sentences.
During the study, volunteers were asked to perform one of two simple tasks during which researchers checked to ask if the participants' minds were wandering.
At the end, participants measured their working memory ability by remembering a series of letters with simple maths questions.
Daniel, a psychologist in the United States, said that those with higher working memory ability reported "more mind wandering during these simple tasks", but their performance did not suffer.
The results, published online in the journal Psychological Science, appear to confirm previous research that found working memory allows humans to deal with multiple thoughts at the same time.
Dr Smallwood,in Leipzig,Germany,said: "What this study seems to suggest is that, when circumstances for the task aren't very difficult, people who have additional working memory resources arrange _ to think about things other than what they're doing. "
Working memory ability is also associated with general measures of intelligence, such as reading comprehension and IQ scores, and also offers a window into the widespread, but not well understood, field of internally driven thoughts.
Dr Smallwood added: "Our results suggest the sorts of planning that people do quite often in daily life--when they are on the bus, when they are cycling to work, when they are in the shower--are probably supported by working memory.
Options:
A It's not a bad thing for children with wandering minds.
B The result of the study doesn't agree with the previous research.
C Circumstances might make children's heads clever.
D Only working memory can handle difficult problems.

Article in English: Like all cats, Maine Coons are an investment of both time and money. They can cost anywhere from $400 to $1,000, and they also require ongoing costs like cat food, cat litter, and vet visits. Plus, since Maine Coons are relatively outgoing, they require some attention and affection every day. If you are a busy person, consider a pet that requires less energy. If you want a less energetic Maine Coon, think about getting a full-grown cat instead of a kitten. Reputable breeders will not have Maine Coons (or any other breed) available year-round. They will also not accept purchases online or have multiple litters on their premises. Instead, they’ll insist on a strict contract that describes what happens in case you can no longer take care of the cat, and provide as much information as possible about the cat’s pedigree and health. Contact the Maine Coon Breeders and Fanciers Association for a list of reputable breeders in your area. Buying your Maine Coon from a breeder is the most common way to get one. But you could also get your Maine Coon from a rescue organization like Maine Coon Adoptions or Maine Coon Rescue. Contact one of these organizations or a similar group about getting a Maine Coon. Reputable breeders or cat sellers will welcome you to visit the cat in the location where the cat was raised. The cat should be raised indoors. Be wary of breeders who try to meet you in a location that is not the place where the Maine Coon was raised (typically the breeder’s home). If you see that the Maine Coon was raised in a small, dirty, or crowded pen, choose another breeder. These conditions suggest that the cat might have fleas or illnesses. Likewise, do not obtain a cat that was raised in isolation, as it may have difficulty socializing with other pets or people when introduced to your home. Maine Coons will probably not be available right away. Cats raised properly need to be about 12 to 16 weeks old before they can be separated from their mothers.

Members of the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) Union are against plans to stop extra payments paid to weekend and bank holiday staff.
A National Museum Wales spokeswoman apologised for strike disruption.
Six of National Museum Wales' sites were shut or partially closed due to the strike on Saturday.
A spokeswoman from National Museum Wales said a 6% salary rise for low-paid workers and a living wage of £7.85 an hour would mitigate the loss.
She added: "Like most other public sector organisations, we are operating within a reduced budget and are being forced to plan for even more cuts."
On Saturday, Swansea's National Waterfront Museum, the National Slate Museum in Llanberis, Gwynedd, and the National Wool Museum, Dre-fach Felindre, Carmarthenshire were closed.
St Fagans National History Museum and National Museum Cardiff were open on Saturday but with limited services.
Meanwhile, PCS union members at the DVLA in Swansea remain on strike on the second day of their three-day strike over Saturday pay.

Title: C'MON DOC WHERE TALKING CLINICAL DEATH, HERE.
Review: As a former Paramedic I take a skeptic's view when reading about so called near death experiences or "nde's". The author, a cardiologist, should realize that nde's are just that. Just because your heart stops beating and you cease to breath you are not really dead, yet! That is called clinical death....real or bioligical death is several minutes away. Biological or brain death occurs as the neurons in the brain begin to die from hypoxia or lack of oxygen. This book is biased...fails to mention the diffrence between clinical and actual death. | dissatisfied | eng | train | xP3 | Multitask |

Bạn cần rửa sạch bên trong ống trước khi sử dụng - không phải để bảo vệ đèn mà vì vụn khoai tây còn sót lại bên trong có thể thu hút côn trùng tới chỗ cất đèn. Hoặc, bạn cũng có thể dùng lõi của cuộn giấy vệ sinh để thay thế. Các bước tiếp theo cũng thực hiện tương tự, trừ bước đóng nắp. Bạn cần dùng một chiếc kéo chắc chắn và cắt một đường thẳng dài khoảng 2,5 cm trên miệng ống. Bạn có thể cắt rộng vết này ra một chút nếu không cài vừa dây đèn. Bạn sẽ cuộn dây đèn từ miệng xuống dưới đáy ống và ngược lại; khi cuộn xong, cài đầu dây còn lại vào vết cắt trên miệng ống. Khi hoàn thành, dây đèn sẽ được cuộn xung quanh ống với hai đầu cài ở vết cắt trên miệng ống. Điều này sẽ giúp hai đầu dây đèn không trượt ra khỏi vết cắt và bị rối trong quá trình cất giữ. Để bảo vệ đèn, bạn có thể bọc thêm một vài lớp khăn giấy quanh ống khoai tây. Bạn nên làm vậy, nhất là khi định cất đèn vào chung một hộp với những đồ dùng khác.

Question: Where was Vladimir grieving to ease his mind?
Movie title: Moscow on the Hudson
Movie plot: In Moscow[edit]
Set against the backdrop of the Cold War and Soviet political repression of the early 1980s prior to perestroika, Vladimir Ivanoff (Robin Williams), a saxophonist with the Moscow circus, lives in a crowded apartment with his extended family. He stands in lines for hours to buy toilet paper and shoes. When the apparatchik assigned to the circus (Kramarov as Boris) criticizes Vladimir for being late to rehearsal and suggests Vladimir may miss the approaching trip to New York, Vladimir gives Boris a pair of shoes from the queue that made Vladimir late. While Ivanoff is riding in his friend Anatoly's (Baskin as the circus clown) Lada, Anatoly stops to buy fuel for his car from a mobile black market gasoline dealer. While the friends wait for the gasoline seller to fill Anatoly's jerrycans, the two practice their English.
Vladimir acts as go-between for his crazy grandfather and KGB agents who want to arrest the old man for shouting anti-Soviet slogans out the apartment window. Vladimir defends his grandfather to the agents as a harmless comedian who is a war hero.
Defection in New York[edit]
The circus troupe is sent to perform in New York City. Anatoly, who has talked of little else but defecting, can't bring himself to go through with it; and Vladimir, who had opposed the scheme as reckless and foolhardy, suddenly decides to do it. He runs from his Soviet controllers and hides behind a perfume counter at Bloomingdale's under the skirt of the clerk, Lucia Lombardo (MarÃa Conchita Alonso). When local police and the FBI arrive, Vladimir stands up to his controllers and defects to the United States with news cameras rolling. Vladimir is left with nothing but the clothes on his back, the money in his pocket, and a pair of blue jeans he had planned to buy for his girlfriend in Moscow.
