BreakPoint This Week
BreakPoint This Week: Alone Together By: Shane Morris|Published: August 29, 2013 12:00 AM John Stonestreet interviews Sherry Turkle, author of "Alone Together," about how technology is changing our relationships, and how we can respond. Listen Now | DownloadThis broadcast was originally aired on January 26, 2013. Communication technology; it's made life so much easier, from smart phones to tablets, from texting to Facebook. It's all upside without any downside, right? Uh, wrong. During today's broadcast, John Stonestreet welcomes Dr. Sherry Turkle, author of "Alone Together," to discuss both the good aspects and the potential pitfalls of modern communication. Technology really can be a double-edged sword. It can make learning easier, but tougher because of distractions; communication faster, but less personal. And who among us hasn't gawked at a family sitting around the dinner table, each lost in their own mobile device, chatting with people far away? Dr. Sherry Turkle, a professor of social studies and science and technology at MIT, has had her finger on the pulse of technology and culture since the first computers hit the market. She has been hailed as a forecaster of advances in communication, as well as how our relationships with machines alter our relationships with one another. Author of several books on the subject, including "Life on the Screen," (1997), "The Second Self," (2005), and her latest, "Alone Together," Dr. Turkle has provided a rare, decades-long social commentary on the effect of computers and mobile communication throughout the life of these still young technologies. Turkle is not a Luddite. She expresses great admiration and thankfulness for the advances and conveniences things like the internet, smart phones, and social media have brought us. But she has long insisted that technology unbridled by values and self-restraint makes us into its slaves, rather than the opposite. We must deliberately prioritize our humanity, she argues, in order to keep from becoming lost in our own artificial identities, and most importantly, to avoid losing touch with one another—an ironic fear in an age of unprecedented connectedness. "I go out to dinner with friends, and it's not an unusual experience for people to be constantly checking their text messages," says Turkle. "I just finished teaching a class in which you could see students struggling not to check their text messages. I stand in the back of large lecture halls, and students are texting and going on Facebook. People text at church! I studied this. And you ask them why and they sort of say, 'I can't not!' And that's where the title of my book, 'Alone Together' comes from." This hyper-connectedness and addiction to multitasking, says Turkle, is robbing us not only of focused and meaningful interactions with others, but of our ability to be in the here and now. "People want to be with each other and present with each other," she explains, "but they also want to use technology to be elsewhere... We're having fewer conversations, and more connection. But connection and conversation are not the same thing." The result is a type of relational isolation no generation has ever known. "The prediction you make," recalls John Stonestreet, speaking of Dr. Turkle's book, "is that we've actually become people who will choose artificial, digital or electronic relationships over real ones, because our relational skill set will be so poor, that all we'll want our of relationships will be empathy. We'll just want someone to acknowledge our feelings and our emotions, but we don't want anything to be required of us." But we have a choice. As Dr. Turkle points out, current trends are taking us in the wrong direction. When people would rather text than talk, and prefer other forms of asynchronous, controlled communication to the unpredictable, personal and realistic interaction of a phone call or a face-to-face chat, we're setting ourselves up for loneliness and relational shallowness. "Face-to-face conversation is hard," she says. "An apology is hard. Think about how hard it is to really apologize, and how easy it is to type, 'I'm sry.' and hit 'send.' ...What people want is a much more superficial connection." This desire for superficiality, argues Turkle, is ultimately about maintaining control over impressions others form of us, and protecting the edited image we so carefully construct of ourselves online and through other limited forms of communication. "I think we're getting used to projecting ourselves," she says, "whether it's in a Facebook profile, in an email or in a text. [It's] that feeling of being able to edit and control. And by putting that value first, I think we're shortchanging ourselves. We're forgetting what a conversation is." What's the solution? Well, as someone who has surveyed the rise of communication technology since the 1970s and praised its potential, Dr. Turkel believes we have a distinct choice whether to take control of it or allow it to control us. And while she discourages us from overreacting and chucking our smart phones and tablets out the window, Dr. Turkle has some specific proposals to regain mastery of our lives and our relationships, especially in the home. "If you have children, you need to start to say, 'Dinner, breakfast; no texting.' These are sacred spaces in your home where it's time for conversation. And I think the best advice to give to parents is that the car is a sacred space! I feel very strongly about this. You need to have, in your family, sacred space for conversation." She stresses that hers is not a call to asceticism or nostalgia. Like most innovations, the digital age is morally neutral. It is how we choose to use such new tools as the internet and mobile communication that ultimately matters. And deciding to shut off our computers, put down our phones, and log out of our social networks for deliberate time with the human beings in our lives, believes Turkle, will ultimately enhance our enjoyment of both worlds. "I love technology! But we have to be in the driver's seat with it," she says. "We can't be letting it tell us what to do." Learn More...

In our previous post, we published the four regional winners of the Best Tall Building prize conferred annually by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. Winner of the award for the Middle East & Africa region is the five-building Sowwah Square complex in Abu Dhabi designed by Chicago architecture firm Goettsch Partners and developed by Mubadala Real Estate & Infrastructure. — bustler.net
Abu Dhabi, the most oil-rich of the United Arab Emirates, is now home to the world's single-largest concentrated solar power plant.
The 100-megawatt Shams 1 plant cost an estimated $750 million and is expected to provide electricity to 20,000 homes, according to the BBC.
Why, you might ask?
Bloomberg says the less oil Abu Dhabi uses for local consumption, the more it can export.

Chicago architecture firm Goettsch Partners has designed the flagship commercial development for UAE-based Al Hilal Bank in the heart of Abu Dhabi's Al Maryah Island, formerly known as Sowwah Island. — bustler.net
London has its gracious Victorian mansions, New York has its elegant brownstones and Paris has its ornate Empire-style buildings. But what architectural legacy will future Abu Dhabi residents have to remind them of the city's early boom period?
The fear is that Abu Dhabi's headlong modernisation will eliminate all evidence of the city's evolution, leaving nothing significant to bridge the gap between the pre-oil age and the skyscraper city currently being built.

London-based Austin Smith: Lord (ASL) said it is owed £7.85m (AED45.3m) by the Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage for its work on the Qasr al-Hosn fort in the centre of the city.
The 62-year-old design firm last month signed a Company Voluntary Agreement (CVA) with its creditors in a bid to avoid administration. ASL has made more than 80 staff redundant, including 13 employees from its Abu Dhabi office, which has since closed.

The folks at the Witte Museum expected "Dinosaurs Unearthed" to do well. They just didn't quite expect it to do this well.
The show, which opened in March, has already drawn 100,000 visitors, which is more than twice the anticipated attendance, according to a press release from the Witte.
There's still plenty of time to jack those numbers up even higher. The exhibit will be on display through Sept. 6. Visit the Witte's Web site for more info.

Video transcript provided by Newsy.com
Authorities have ruled a three-year-old girl's death as a homicide after she was found unresponsive in a Philadelphia home, weighing just 11-pounds.
Nathalys Rivera's parents, 31-year-old Carlos Rivera and 27-year-old Carmen Ramirez, were taken into custody Monday. Police say Carlos discovered his daughter in her room not breathing around midnight Monday. (Via WPVI)
Ramirez then took their daughter to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead around 2:00 a.m. Investigators say Nathalys showed "obvious signs of neglect."
"Wearing protective suits and hazmat masks, crime scene investigators carefully entered the West Oak Lane home where they say piles of trash and bugs, fleas, covered the residence." (Via WGMB)
Nathalys, who was reportedly severely disabled, was a twin and had four other siblings, ages 7, 8, and 9. Officials took them to get checked out at a local hospital before being placed with human services.
NBC reports despite her disabilities, Nathalys hadn't been to a doctor in more than a year and there was at least one other incident with the family in which the Department of Human Services was involved.
Police had to take pictures of the second floor from the outside of the home because it was too dangerous to move around on the inside. Neighbors told WBRE the family usually stayed inside their home and the children weren't as social as the rest of the neighborhood kids.
In addition to the murder charge, Rivera and Ramirez have also been charged with involuntary manslaughter, endangering the welfare of a child and criminal conspiracy.

The Grant County High School Speech and Drama Team attended the Campbell County High School "Haunted Invitational" Forensics Tournament on Oct. 25 in Alexandria, Ky. Ten teams from across the commonwealth were in attendance for the first official 'kick-off' tournament of the season.
It was three years in the making, but Grant County High School now is one of three schools in the state to have a rappelling tower.
The process started when Sgt. Major Charles Duffee first came to Grant County High School to help start a junior ROTC program.
"When superintendent Michael Hibbett was hired, I asked him to consider building the tower," Duffee said. "He unequivocally thought it was a good idea and that he would support it so the students would have a training apparatus that would instill confidence and attention to detail."
Justin Richardson, a Norfolk Southern Railroad employee, had just settled into room 144 of the Holiday Inn Express in Florence, Alabama to watch TV around 8:15 p.m on Oct. 27, when he heard a beeping noise.
"It kept going off, so I went outside to see what it was," Richardson said.
After slipping on his tennis shoes and investigating, he discovered the beeping sound was the fire alarm and smoke was pouring from room 244, the room just above his.
While Ali Rich was shooting for state, she met another goal.
Rich was named to the Cincinnati Enquirer's Northern Kentucky all-star team, which recognizes top golfers across the region.
"It's a big accomplishment I think," Rich said. "It was a personal goal. I was excited. I felt like I had accomplished something."
Williamstown Independent School will have an open house from 2 to 4 p.m. on Nov. 9.
The open house will feature the new additions and renovations, school and classroom tours, student/staff "smart" technology demonstrations and refreshments. A recognition of the distinguished "CATS" students will be from 4 to 5 p.m. in the gym. All parents, community and alumni are invited.
The Williamstown Band of Spirit arrived home to a hero's welcome Saturday after winning their fourth state championship in five years.
In their seventh state final appearance, Williamstown High School won the Class A Kentucky Music Educators Association state title at Papa John's Stadium in Louisville over Beechwood, Mayfield and Murray.
Grant County Marching Band earned the opportunity to compete in KMEA Semi-final Competition on Nov. 1. Grant County competed along side of 15 other 4A bands, all aiming for those final four slots to advance to Finals Competition that evening.
Taking the field at 11:45 a.m., Grant County entertained the crowd with its show, "Scenes from Nippon" for the last time this season. Grant County ended another great season finishing eighth in state.
Dry Ridge will be dry no more after a convincing majority of voters chose to make the city moist.
With a total of 742 votes, 488 were in favor of making alcohol available in the city by the drink at restaurants and dining facilities with a seating capacity of at least 100 people and which derive at least 70 percent of their gross receipts from the sale of food.
Only 254 residents voted no in the local option that was spurred by a signed petition filed Aug. 14 by J.B. Barnes.
There's more to the Williamstown Middle School Cheerleading squad than ponytails, pep and pompoms.
These young ladies, 10 in all, have school spirit, but they've also got hearts, which are concerned for others.
The squad, composed of all sixth grade students, have made it their mission to complete a monthly community service project, in addition to bringing spirit to middle school ball games.
They recently made a trip to the Veteran's Nursing Home in Ft. Thomas, where one of the girl's mother, Melissa Angell, works as a pharmacist.
• The chamber breakfast meeting will begin at 8 a.m. Nov. 17 at Williamstown Baptist Church.

Skid-steer loaders can easily load rations into the new Roto-Mix VX series mixers because they are all only 100 inches in height. The low center of gravity trailer mixer is very stable and can maneuver in tight areas, making it a valuable asset to any small to medium dairy, cow/calf or heifer operation. The new VX Series Single Auger Vertical Mixers by Roto-Mix, offer the small to medium sized dairies, cow/calf and heifer operations an efficient, durable, feed mixer that delivers a high quality TMR at an affordable price. Three models to choose from, the VX-315, VX-415 and VX-515 provide capacities in 300, 400 and 500 cubic feet respectively and are all under 100 inches in height. This low profile mixer series enables nearly all types of loaders, even skid steers, to load feed without clearance concerns. The low loading height and very stable, low center of gravity make this vertical mixer one of the most versatile available. Your choice of right or left side discharge is a standard along with a side bolt-on conveyor option to allow for easy bunk feeding. A flow regulator plate enables the operator to optimize the flow of feed inside the mixer. The single auger is powered by a reliable, low maintenance pto driven, planetary gearbox. An innovative design by Roto-Mix engineers are new "wing kickers" located at the bottom of the augers to force the last part of the ration out, resulting in excellent clean-out. Options include a hay chain ring that reduces spillage of larger loads, round and square bales. Knife options are available for processing hay and other rations. For feeders who want more capacity, Roto-Mix offers rubber extenders to add those crucial extra cubic feet. Dual truck tires on the trailer are also offered as an option for mud and snow. Available this summer, dealers are currently taking orders.
For more information on this new product and the entire Roto-Mix line of vertical and rotary feed mixers, contact us. 620-225-1142 www.rotomix.com

Brilliant Finish – Bullrun 2010
The Hudson Jeans Exotics Rally Nissan GTR, also affectionately known as "Gaadzilla" finished the last leg of the Bullrun Rally to Las Vegas in 2nd place. Tony and Seth suprised everyone this year by grabbing two First & Second place finishes. Besides the brilliant driving and rocking the rally in Hudson Jeans fashion, the car won for the the hottest car and best driver. The coveted "CEC Hottest Wheels Award" was presented by another Bullrun 2010 award winner, Claus Ettensberger, who just barely beat the team to the final checkpoint in Vegas.
For some adrenaline, watch the rally close out in style: engines roaring and the front and rear cameras recording the race to the very end.

In an interface I am making, part of it needs to have multiple text fields with buttons linking to other web pages. I will probably have about 40-75 different links when I am done creating this. The only way to do this that I can see is to create a button and then add an interaction to that button to link to the page I want. However, making a list of multiple ones I have to create a new button each time. Buttons can't be duplicated and then the text inside the button changes or else it will change all the other instances of that button. So this requires me making 75 different buttons, adding the different state changes to each one, and is very time consuming. Plus then getting them properly placed inside the document instead of just duplicating the button is also very time consuming.
I thought this might be possible with a data list, but it doesn't seem that you can set up an element of the data list to have them be different links. However, this doesn't seem possible either.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can do this or am I just stuck?
Thank you.
Catalyst is great for visual prototyping, but if you have a large set of data, say over 15 items, you should probably be doing some final tweaks in Builder. In your case, I'd recommend creating a Data List with your text input and button. I would also add text fields to your design time data that contain your links and button labels. You can set the opacity on them to zero, you just want those strings present in your design time data.
Finally, bring your FXP over to builder, and tweak the button labels so they draw from the design time data. Also, create an interaction for the button that navigates to the appropriate link.
Does builder only come with the master collection? I have the design premium. I have a copy of the master collection on someone else's computer here at work that I can use, though.
I may just make a button that says "Link" and then have that next to my list of things I need linked. I know you can have multiple instances of a button with different interactions on each instance.
Thanks for your help Bear.
Anyone else have any other ideas?
Flash Builder is also included in Web Premium. I think Flash Builder Standard is $249. Bear is right, at some point it makes sense to shift from prototyping to actual development. Good luck. If you get stuck with development, your best bet will be on the Flash Builder forums for coding help.
Take a look at this blog post: http://blogs.adobe.com/flexdoc/2011/05/adding-links-to-mx-and-spark-da tagrids-using-inline-item-renderers.html about adding links within a datagrid.
Hi Chris,
Thanks for the link.
I figured out how to do it in Flash Catalyst, without heading over to Flash Builder.
All you have to do is select the data list, then go to the interactions panel.
After you have selected the state that it should transition to, Change the last drop down to "When a specific Item is selected", then choose which item links to what.
I hope this helps someone who doesn't have an idea how to use Flash Builder.

Mr. Matthew Friedrich
Chief of Staff and Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General, Criminal Division
TESTIMONY OF June 28, 2006 I. II. III. IV . V. VI. In addition, corporations have increased the effectiveness of their compliance programs in the wake of the Sarbanes-Oxley and the stepped up enforcement efforts of the Department and its partners. General Electric Corporation voluntarily disclosed to the Department and the SEC in 2004 that employees of InVision Technologies, a maker of airport security screening devices that GE was considering acquiring, had paid or offered to pay bribes to foreign officials in Thailand, China and the Philippines. GE detected these violations while it was performing due diligence on InVision and voluntarily reported them. In December 2004, the Department entered into nonprosecution agreements with General Electric and InVision Technologies. InVision disgorged almost $600,000 in profits and paid a criminal penalty of $800,000, and GE agreed to integrate InVision into its own Foreign Corrupt Practices Act compliance program. |

SnoreBeGone Sleep Positioning System
SnoreBeGone is a Sleep Positioning System that is used to reduce the incidence of snoring.
Snoring often causes significant sleep deprivation affecting overall health and well-being. It can impact lives causing day-time drowsiness, reduced concentration, reduced libido, and also affect relationships. Bed partners are also significantly affected. Sleep deprivation and snoring can increase health risks such as heart disease, diabetes, depression and weight gain. Snoring is often a symptom of sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder characterized by abnormal pauses in breathing or instances of abnormally low breathing during sleep.
SnoreBeGone unique design addresses the problems associated with snoring by:- Supporting the entire body not just shoulders and neck
- Elevating the body; the elevation needed to prevent gravitational collapse of airways
- Ergonomic design to maintain correct posture - ensuring spine and shoulders remain at right angles
- Design encourages side sleeping and prevents sleeping on back, leaving air passages open to breathe easier
- The weight of the body holds the Sleep Positioning System in place, while allowing a left or right lateral position for sleep
- Recess channel provides space for shoulder and arm to rest stress-free
- Detachable and adjustable headrest ensures optimal comfort
- Detachable arm rests ensure arms can lay flat and relaxed for added comfort when extending the arm
- Extension cushion prevents slide and provides full body support

Best Practices for Internal Electronic Communications
UAB has developed several options for internal electronic communications. Please review the following instructions to determine the appropriate method of communication to best serve your purposes in compliance with UAB guidelines.
The eReporter
The eReporter, an electronic newsletter, is companion to the print UAB Reporter and is the recommended alternative to sending mass e-mails. It is distributed twice-weekly to all UAB faculty and staff and subscribers. To submit news and/or information for publication, use the publicity request form online at www.uab.edu/reporter. Deadlines are Monday and Thursday at 10 a.m. for publication on Tuesdays/Fridays.
GreenMail is an electronic newsletter distributed once a week during the fall and spring semesters and every other week during the summer to all UAB students and subscribers. It is the recommended alternative to sending mass e-mails. To submit news and/or information for publication, use the publicity request form online at www.uab.edu/greenmail. The deadline is 10 a.m. Tuesday for publication on Wednesdays.
UAB Campus Calendar
The UAB Campus Calendar is the central location for promoting all UAB campus events. Deadlines vary by sub-calendar; submit items for inclusion at least two business days in advance of event at www.uab.edu/calendar.
BlazerNET offers two options of communication that can target members of the UAB community based on their status as faculty, staff or student.
Area Specific Channels are used to regularly provide ongoing information and services to particular groups about particular topics. For example, channels on BlazerNET's Faculty Resources tab are designed specifically to deliver information to faculty; those on the Student Resources tab specifically for students.
Targeted Announcements are usually used for discrete events or one-time delivery of timely information.
To request a new BlazerNET channel or Targeted Announcement, sign in to BlazerNET and click on the help button in the upper right corner. A pop-up box will appear, from which you can select "Request a New Channel" or "Request a Targeted Announcement" on the left side, as shown below. For more detailed instructions, please follow the link below. Requests for a new BlazerNET channel or Targeted Announcement are reviewed by the BlazerNET Operating Committee and must be submitted five business days prior to the required start date.
BlazerNET Instructions
E-Mail Lists
For ongoing communications with specific groups within the UAB community, the following options are available based on the purpose of the communications.
Listservs are used for a defined, static audience of information recipients and are necessary for lists that include recipients outside of UAB. The audience can be determined through self-subscription, or a list owner can add and remove recipients. Listservs may be set up as a one-way distribution outlet or as a virtual discussion community to which all members can post information. To request a Listserv, contact the AskIT Help Desk at 996-5555. Once the ticket is generated, you will need to attach an e-mail from your supervisor stating approval (to speed the process, please ask your supervisor to send their approval e-mail prior to opening the ticket). These requests are handled by Infrastructure Services. Please allow seven business days for the request to be processed.
Dynamic E-Mail Lists
Dynamic e-mail services are most often used for one-way information delivery to audiences whose composition may change from day or day, or even more often. Rather than relying upon statically defined memberships, each use of these services constructs its list of recipients in real-time. Distribution lists are typically developed for specific instances of communication such as sending to a specific department, a school or all occupants of a building. To request a distribution list, contact the AskIT Help Desk at 996-5555. These requests are handled by Infrastructure Services. Please allow seven business days for the request to be processed.
Mass E-Mails
Any one-time message addressed to multiple recipients that needs to be sent from a "special" address rather than a user's personal address is considered a mass e-mail. Mass e-mails sent to all faculty, staff and students are reserved for special circumstances and require special permissions based upon organizational hierarchy. Ultimately, these requests will require approval from the Office of the Provost. Please contact AskIT at 996-5555 to initiate the process. Once the permissions are granted, Central IT will construct the lists and send the e-mail. When submitting your request, please indicate the required send date and allow seven business days for completion of the request. These requests are handled by Infrastructure Services.
Personal Distribution Lists
You may want to manage your own personal distribution list for groups that you will need to e-mail more than once. When sending your message, please keep in mind that the size limit for attachments is 30MB. Click on the link below for instructions on how to construct a personal distribution list in Microsoft Outlook. Alternatively, you can create a list of e-mails separated by semicolons in a Notepad document and save it. When you are ready to use the list, simply copy and pasted the e-mail addresses into the "Bcc" field (this provides privacy for your recipients, especially if some of them are non-UAB).
Instructions for Personal Distribution Lists in MS Outlook
UAB Global Address Book
Lists maintained in the UAB Global Address Book are for UAB personnel only. They are reserved for a defined, static audience of ongoing information recipients. To set up a group e-mail distribution list in the Address Book, please contact the AskIT Help Desk at 996-5555. Once the ticket is generated and approved, lists are set up by Infrastructure Services and managed by the Departmental OU Administrator. Please allow 24-36 hours for the request to be processed.
Quick Guide to Internal Outlets/Deadlines
Audience: All UAB faculty and staff
Deadlines: Monday and Thursday at 10 a.m. for publication on Tuesdays/Fridays
Audience: All UAB students (at all levels, in all schools)
Deadline: Tuesday at 10 a.m. for publication on Wednesdays

Deadlines vary; submission recommended at least two business days in advance of event
Audience: UAB faculty and staff
Deadline: Publication is produced and distributed on campus every other Monday during the academic year with the exception of winter holidays. It is always posted online at www.uab.edu/reporter; in the summer months, it is not actually printed and distributed, just posted.
Request publication of news and information via http://www.uab.edu/news/reporter/request-publicity.
How can one tell if the email message is real or fake?
Reading UAB-Email via the Web - Outlook Web Access (OWA)
I've left the university - When will my Exchange account be deleted?
- Exchange accounts for students are retained for 1 year after the student leaves UAB.
- For faculty and staff, the retention period is 3 months.
For more information on how to manage your address following deletion, click here.
I'm leaving the university - Can I have mail going to my Exchange account forwarded to an off-campus address?
Help with Mail Relay Authentication
- What is the URL used to let me send email from outside UAB?
- How do I authenticate in order to send e-mail to an off-campus address when I am also off-campus?
- How often do I need to authenticate?
A mail relay authentication is required when sending email from off-campus to an off-campus address, if you are using UAB's SMTP mail service.
The URL is: www.dpo.uab.edu/relay-info.html
The authorization is based on allowing e-mail to relay from a specific dial-up address, so you must submit the authentication once each time you connect to your ISP. Do the authentication after you connect and before you try to send mail. If you stay connected for more than a couple of hours at a time, you should take advantage of the function to automatically renew your authorization every half hour. It may be easier to set your home PC to use the SMTP server recommended by your ISP. This way, you will not have to authenticate at all.
How do I find my Email Headers in Outlook?
How to find email headers in Outlook 2007/2010/2011 for Mac and Outlook Web App
Outlook 2007
- Open a message.
- On the Message tab, in the Options group, select the Dialog Box Launcher.
- In the Message Options dialog box, the headers appear in the Internet headers box.
Outlook 2010
- Open a message.
- Select the File tab.
- Once on the File tab, select the Properties button.
- After selecting Properties, look under the Internet headers section for the email headers.
Outlook 2011 for Macintosh
- Control-Click (Right-click) on message. Select Source.
Outlook Web App
- Open a message
- Select the message details button ( ).
- Look under the Internet Mail Headers section for the email headers.
Internet Hoax-send email to everyone you know
Internet hoaxes are rumors you receive by e-mail, usually accompanied by the suggestion that you forward copies of this information to "Everyone you know".
Sometimes computer viruses are distributed this way; in other cases, this behavior constitutes a nuisance by creating large amounts of junk e-mail.
You should be suspicious of any message that encourages you to "notify everyone you know", *EVEN* when you know the person who sent you the message. Your friends may not know as much about Internet hoaxes as you do.
List of known hoaxes can be found at:

After about 2 months, and still never placing an order with Netdropshipper.com, I decided to check out their items to see if anything would be worth trying to sell. Just for the heck of it, I hit the "my account" tab and was SHOCKED to see about 15 orders listed in my history. All of them appeared to have either been cancelled or returned, so thank GOD there were no charges on my credit card.
When I brought this obvious error to their attention, I was told that I had to have been mistaken, because only I can access my account with their SECURE server. I wasn't trying to dispute any charges, I was just concerned that someone there had taken my credit card info and was using it to make it look like I was placing orders.
Since they do NOT have a phone number you have to do all your communicating by emails (which they take FOREVER to respond to) or you can try using their Live Chat, which is a joke because after typing feverishly for about 20 minutes, I was told that I would have to send an email to customer service to get this straightened out. Even after I just got done telling them that part of the problem is the length of time it takes to get a response.
My biggest concern, other than the fact that someone at Netdropshipper.com was using my credit card info. is that sometime in the future, I am going to end up being sued for non-payment of these phantom orders. When I asked them for proof that I had placed any orders and the names and addresses of the people I had SENT these items to, they provided me with a bunch of mumbo jumbo with order #'s and not much else. I don't know what good that was supposed to do me. I told them that I wanted MY customers addresses and Phone #'s so that I could find out from them IF they ordered these items and if so, from whom. I have not received this information back from them.
In an effort to cover myself, I, too filed a complaint with the BBB, so that in the event of trouble in the future, I would have record of reporting my problem with them to some official agency.
All I basically started out wanting Netdropshipper to do was say "Oh yeah, we accidentally put all these orders under your account number by mistake and will now put them all under the correct account #" Instead I basically got told that I was a liar since it wasn't 1 or 2 orders that weren't mine, it was about 17! In my report to the BBB I told them that I wanted my account cancelled so that nothing in the future could be put towards my account. Just for the heck of it, I tried to get into my account a few times over the last 2 months to see if the orders have disappeared from my account and I keep getting an error message that the site is undergoing maintenance in an effort to improve their service to me. What a crock! Now, I can't even get into the website!
This experience has really soured me on dropshippers, too, which is a shame, because I'm sure that there are some reputable ones out there, somewhere!

A theatrical adventure soars in this poignant 12th-century Persian fable about the search for the divine. "The New York Times" says, "The play is a flying carpet gliding us aloft into a land of mystery, splendor, and ritual." "Newsweek" says the play is a "Brilliant work that challenges most of our ideas of what theatre is, ought to be, and can do. This exquisite piece represents the perfection of Brook's work."

"From a theatrical point of view, the astounding performance that Joel de la Fuente delivers as Gordon Hirabayashi is reason enough to recommend Hold These Truths… de la Fuente presents, in addition to Hirabayashi, a plethora of personages that people Gordy's story – different ages, different sexes, different nationalities – all without benefit of makeup or costume change….This is simply remarkable work – a master class in acting, if you will….In the hands of a lesser playwright this could easily have come off as a didactic lesson in social justice, but with Jeanne Sakata at the helm, we are treated to a dazzling, literary script that's full of humor.

In the aftermath of the Trojan War, the women of the ruined nation of Troy, gathered by their conquerors, await their fate even as they mourn their dead. This play, written in 415 BCE as Euripides' public protest against the Peloponnesian War, forces us to look beyond social justice, beyond nationalism and patriotism to consider at core what we believe to be right, and what we know is wrong. This aggressive, hard-hitting, movement-based production will force us to scrape away the grit, to wipe the dirt from our eyes as we look beyond despair to find our humanity.
