			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seems like <a href="http://clhandbook.com/news/tag/jim-buckmaster/">Jim Buckmaster</a> wasn’t happy with the way Amber Lyon interviewed their founder <a href="http://clhandbook.com/craig-newmark.html">Craig Newmark</a>. According to Jim Buckmaster Amber ambushed Craig with surprised questions about topics which Craig wasn’t prepared to answer. He was supposed to be interviewed for his talk on veteran’s affairs which happened last May 20.</p>
<p>Jim&#8217;s feisty post was created after Amber Lyon requested to set up an interview with the company&#8217;s spokesperson or Jim himself. Jim claimed that Craig though he is the founder his is no longer in management and he is not the company’s spokesperson. And that it was not fair to ambush their semi-retired founder Craig Newmark with questions he doesn&#8217;t have a clear idea or he hasn’t prepared for. What makes Jim so mad is that the network was able to air the &#8220;misleading&#8221; piece a number of times. The CEO has no problems with the network but he was only attacking Amber Lyon.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.dove.com/">Dove</a> had been known for their campaign for Real beauty featuring real women with their real curves but their good image had been under threat when an ad for &#8220;Flawless Women&#8221; were posted on Craigslist purportedly by Dove. The ad seeks for women with flawless skin that is well groomed with nice bodies that are naturally fit and not too athletic or curvy. This is a bit too strict of a requirement from Dove and the ad had been scrutinized.</p>
<p>Dove’s spokesperson said that the casting notice hasn’t been approved by their team and they will take the necessary steps to prevent something like this from happening again. They appreciate that the ad was brought to their attention. The spokesperson also added that they believe that the images for Dove demonstrates that real beauty comes in different shapes, color and size as well as age and they remain with their commitment to keep this image in all of their advertising.</p>
<p>A media commentator also said that since the ad was written in almost all caps with exclamation marks, which is quite inappropriate and unprofessional, shouldn’t have been taken seriously.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Linda McDowell doesn’t know where to start looking for her 5 year old dog named Bo. He ran away when he got treated in a veterinary hospital after he was bitten by a pit bull. For some reason, he just bolted out of there and this devastated Linda.</p>
<p>She started putting up fliers around the clinic but had no luck, she even posted an ad on Craigslist on its lost and found section but didn’t have much luck until a woman named April Daily saw the dog as her own dog started barking so she looked out the window and saw this cute dog. He hides a lot so they couldn’t catch him and they couldn’t check his name tag.</p>
<p>They tried searching for lost dogs on Craigslist but thought there was no listing until at the last moment, there it was a picture of Bo. Her husband Shane started crying out this is the dog as it looks exactly like the dog that was hiding on the bushes. They immediately called up Linda and she went to their house and camped out waiting for Bo. Bo didn’t come back so she’s still looking for her dog who she said is totally devoted to her. The Daily family lives in Stetson Hills so he might be just near the area. Email Linda if you find him at LLM1168@yahoo.com</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After the news about <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0517820/">Lindsay Lohan</a>&#8217;s assistant quitting her job there was a fake, a Craigslist ad which supposedly posted by Lindsay in a desperate search for her new assistant ASAP. The ad says she&#8217;s seeking for a new &#8220;assistent&#8221; that would be able to handle the other thing in her life so that she can focus on her acting and love life.  The applicant must be available &#8220;27/4&#8243; because some unexpected photo shoots with Dave Chapelle might come up. The ad also includes a skill in doing twitters. And on the last note of the ad it says &#8220;<em>No paparotzis so don&#8217;t even ask unless you&#8217;re offering $$$$$$!!!!</em>&#8220;.</p>
<p>The Craigslist ad is probably posted as a joke because of the young actress erratic behavior towards other people especially the media. She&#8217;s been having problems with her career and having frequent trouble with the law due to her vices and uncontrolled partying.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s really much easier to sell your items through an online site like the Craigslist. The advantage of using Craigslist is that they have a local listing so it’s easy for you to find buyers which are just near or around your area. Compared with eBay posting ad is much easier and all ads are for free. EBay is an online site which caters sellers to be able to show their items to the world. Both eBay and Craigslist are the biggest online ads website. You will earn more without exerting much effort compare to doing a garage sale.</p>
<p>But there’s a few drawback in using Craigslist. Since its free it’s easy for fake or Flake to find legitimate sellers and buyers to victimize. Flakes are people which post as an interested buyer and will ask the seller a lot of questions and will ask to save the item for them. And turned out they won’t see the seller nor buy the item they reserved.</p>
