Dez Bryant - #88 - WR
|6' 2"/ 220 lbs.
|Lufkin, TX
|Oklahoma State
|Years played
|2010, 1st round, 24th pick by Cowboys
NFC East training-camp reports
In the fifth part of our series of training-camp reports, we look at NFC East teams, including a Redskins club with newcomer Donovan McNabb at the helm.
Cowboys' Bryant becomes first first-rounder to agree to terms
Dez Bryant became the first draft choice from the 2010 first round to agree to terms on a contract, a reported five-year deal with the Cowboys.
NFC East sleepers few and far between
The NFC East stands as one of the toughest divisions, top to bottom, and there are not a lot of quality sleeper candidates with so many established stars.
Cowboys' Spears must work to keep job
Cowboys DE Marcus Spears' name was floated around the NFL draft in trade talks, and he could be fighting DEs Stephen Bowen and Jason Hatcher to keep his starting job.
Unga, Price-Brent selected in supplemental draft
Two of the four players available in the supplemental draft were selected in the seventh round, as the Bears nabbed Brigham Young RB Harvey Unga and the Cowboys selected Illinois DT Josh Price-Brent.
Cowboys' Ratliff says best yet to come
Cowboys NT Jay Ratliff was named to the Pro Bowl in 2008 and '09 and was a PFW/PFWA All-NFC selection in '09, but he says he feels he hasn't reached his potential yet.
Cowboys ILB Williams faces crowded situation
Following the drafting of LB Sean Lee in Round Two this year, ILB Jason Williams' place on the Cowboys' roster is in doubt.
Cowboys WR Austin signs tender
Cowboys WR Miles Austin signed his restricted free-agent tender Friday, with an eye on reaching a long-term agreement with the team before the start of the season.
Cowboys keeping eye on Bryant's conditioning
The Cowboys knew when they drafted WR Dez Bryant that they were getting a potential steal with the 24th pick in the draft, but also a player that came with serious questions.
Cowboys' Jones reverses field on Barber
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones previously had speculated publicly that RB Marion Barber might be better suited in a reserve role, but Jones hinted that Barber might remain a starter.
Cowboys, Rams make Barron-for-Carpenter deal official
The Rams and Cowboys made official a trade that had been in the works for nearly a week, sending LB Bobby Carpenter to St. Louis and OT Alex Barron to Dallas in a swap of failed former first-round picks.
Cowboys considering Carpenter-for-Barron deal
Jerry Jones had said that the team would explore adding depth at a few positions, including the offensive line, and now the Cowboys are discussing a trade for Rams OT Alex Barron.
Report: Barron-Carpenter trade nearing completion
A trade in which the Rams would send OT Alex Barron to the Cowboys for LB Bobby Carpenter is expected to be finalized Monday, according to NFL Network.
Vets feeling heat with rookies on board
The draft is in the rearview mirror, but here are five veteran players who could be looking over their shoulders with rookies gunning for their jobs.
2010 draft choices by team: Cowboys
Here are the players who were chosen by the Dallas Cowboys in the 2010 NFL draft.
Bryant has undergone surgery on his broken left index finger after postponing the procedure for the final three games of the season. The team reported Tuesday's successful surgery on its website. Bryant decided to play through the injury because the Cowboys were still in playoff contention. They lost the finale at Washington 28-18 with the NFC East title at stake.||||||| Bryant broke the finger in the fourth quarter at Cincinnati on Dec. 9 and caught a game-changing touchdown pass after the injury. He had a career-high 224 yards two weeks later against New Orleans. A franchise record-tying touchdown streak of seven games ended against the Redskins. The third-year pro finished with career highs of 1,382 yards and 12 touchdowns.
Bryant showed no ill-effects from a broken finger, finishing with nine catches for a career-high 224 yards and two touchdowns in the Cowboys' loss to New Orleans on Sunday.||||||| Bryant has been one of the top fantasy receivers down the stretch, with 10 touchdowns in his last seven games.
Bryant says he will play with a broken finger Sunday against Pittsburgh. The Dallas Cowboys receiver was listed as a limited participant in practice Thursday, an upgrade from a day earlier, when he sat out. Dallas coach Jason Garrett said he caught some passes in practice after saying before the workout he didn't think Bryant would. Bryant said in the locker room after practice that the "only thing y'all need to know is I'm playing."||||||| The third-year pro fractured his left index finger in last weekend's 20-19 win at Cincinnati. He caught a touchdown after getting injured. Bryant practiced with a padded white glove that had the tip of the finger exposed.
Bryant is seeing another doctor to help determine if he can play the rest of this season with a broken finger on his left hand.||||||| Coach Jason Garrett said Wednesday that the team and the player are getting more medical information to figure out the best way to handle the situation. He says Bryant's health now and going forward are "huge factors" in making a decision. Bryant broke his finger in Sunday's victory at Cincinnati, though he returned a few plays after the injury and caught a touchdown.
Bryant hauled in six receptions for 98 yards and two more TDs in Sunday night's 38-33 win over Philadelphia.||||||| Bryant now has six scores over his last four games and is finally living up to his enormous potential. He should be considered a top-10 option down the stretch.

Snow on the ground gives hunters an advantage in spotting or tracking deer. / File/Gannett Wisconsin Media
Wisconsin officials annually set deer population goals based on input from the public, proposals from state wildlife managers and the Natural Resources Board, and then those figures are reviewed by the Legislature. Those population goals are designed to produce a balance of:
♦ A healthy herd
♦ A healthy ecosystem
♦ Few crop-damage complaints
♦ Sufficient hunting opportunities.
� Wisconsin DNR
Weather has been better for the deer than for the people who have hunted them over the past two years, according to two separate studies by the state Department of Natural Resources.
♦ More 'On Target?' headlines
♦ Search deer hunting statistics
♦ Review deer management over the past 10 years
♦ Discuss deer management in our hunting forum
Outdoor conditions have a direct impact on the health of the deer herd, especially in Wisconsin�s northern region. However, they have only an indirect impact on hunter success because even ideal weather conditions for hunting can�t overcome other factors.
Hunters generally liked the weather in 2010 better than the year before. Archers also reported being generally more pleased with the weather last year in late September and early October than anyone during and after the gun deer season later in the year.
Opinions of the weather plummeted to near rock bottom in mid-December. Opinions remained consistently lukewarm throughout most of the 2009 seasons.
Brian Dhuey, the DNR�s wildlife survey and data base manager, began tallying hunter reactions to weather starting in 2009.
Information is gathered from deer stubs at deer registration stations.
�We asked about the number of deer seen, the hours hunted, the weather ranking on a scale of one to 10,� Dhuey said. �It�s conducted at the time of registration, so there�s no information about when hunters didn�t see deer.�
The study isn�t very scientific, because not all hunters like the same conditions, and those who bagged a deer are less likely to complain about the weather than a hunter who came home empty-handed. But it gives the DNR some ideas about whether the deer harvest was related to favorable conditions, said Bob Manwell, spokesman for the DNR�s land and wildlife management division.
The DNR also solicits hunter opinions online at its website. The advantage there is that unsuccessful hunters also have input, Dhuey said.
The weather report, rated on a scale of one to 10, is subjective, but �everyone probably agrees that a little bit of snow is good, so deer stand out against the rest of the brown out there, and also for tracking,� but few hunters like to deal with deep snow, Manwell said.
�And certainly cool is good, while severe cold is not,� he said.
Measuring the impact of weather conditions on deer is more scientific and has been going on much longer, although the study�s focus has been confined to Wisconsin�s northernmost region.
The DNR has been using its Winter Severity Index at about 35 locations in northern Wisconsin since the mid 1970s and used the index to measure back to 1960.
The index is calculated by adding the number of days with 18 inches or more of snow on the ground to the number of days when minimum temperatures were zero or below.
Under the system, a winter with a total of less than 50 is considered mild, 50 to 80 is moderate, and above 80 is severe. Totals above 100 are considered very severe.
When the index numbers are high in northern Wisconsin, deer survival over winter is lower, fewer fawns survive and adult buck harvests fall.
In all but the northernmost counties, winter generally isn�t severe enough to affect the deer population, Manwell said.
In the north, weather has generally been favorable for deer survival and reproduction for the last 13 years, according to the DNR study.
It scored in the �mild� range in all but four years in that period. It reached �moderate� levels � a score of between 50 and 80 for the season � three times and strayed above 80, a �severe� level, once in the period.
The index strayed into the �very severe� category � over 100 � eight times since the winter of 1960-61, with the worst being the winter of 1995-96, at 127. That year and the following year, which also was �very severe,� accounted for a 35 percent decrease in the deer population in the north, according to the DNR.
Conversely, a stretch of mild winters in the 1980s resulted in spectacular increases in deer population, according to the DNR.

The Heartland trophy is once again on the line as Iowa and Wisconsin meet up for the first time in three years --The Hawkeyes will look to regain the hardware after suffering a one point loss in the 2010 game --To do that -- they'll need to slow down Badger running back Melvin Gordon -- who currently ranks 5th in division one with 1,012 rushing yards this season --He'll be going up against a Hawkeye defense that ranks in the top 15-- giving up just 18 points a game --Interestingly -- the Wisconsin sophomore nearly became a Hawkeye -- Gordon verbally committed to Iowa in 20-10 but changed his mind 3 months later opting to remain in his home state -- Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz talked about that earlier Tuesday.
"He was a guy we liked an awful lot in the recruiting process. We still like him a lot. I am sure he's still a great young man. He's obviously a very good football player. It's kind of part of the recruiting deal. It'slike bad breaks or injuries, if you can't deal with those kinds of things, you probably ought to do something else."
Iowa and Wisconsin kick it off at 11 O'clock Saturday morning.

There are more than 5,000 Muslims in the Waterloo/Cedar Falls area alone. Dr. Mohammed Fahmy is one of them.
He is an active member of the Muslim community and has been working as a professor at the University of Northern Iowa for 30 years.
"From its meaning from the word Islam comes Salaam," Fahmy said. "Salaam is Shalom -- that means peace."
But peace is not a word that many associate with the religion.
Dr. Fahmy believes that images of violence, terrorism and hatred have fueled a shift of the entire idea of what Islam really is and what Muslims really believe.
"Some people say, 'Are you Muslim first, or American first?' And I say, 'I am an American Muslim,'" Fahmy said. "It doesn't matter. I'm a person who has chosen to be an American. I live in this country. I defend this country."
One of the biggest misconceptions about Islam is the role of women.
"I have studied Islam for myself. I read a lot of Koran, and I just find that Islam elevated the status of women," Salma Akbar, a practicing Muslim woman, said. "Fourteen centuries ago, the Prophet came and he liberated them from those practices.
"People used to bury their daughters alive, and this is a religion that came and said if you raise your daughter well, you will go to Heaven," Akbar added. "I think Prophet Muhammad was the first feminist."
According to Muslims, Islamic women had many rights far before other religions.
"Islam came and gave the women the right to inherit right away," Fahmy said. "They have the right to vote, they have the right to become business people."
Muslim women agree.
"My power comes from my religion." Akbar said. "My religion has given me a sense of self-worth, like I am my own person."
Zeeni Afridi has been in Iowa for 40 years. She said the headscarf many Muslim women wear is not required anywhere in the religion, but it is instead worn by some women as a sign of respect.
"I would call myself a modern Muslim woman," said Afridi. "I don't hold back and I don't walk ten feet behind my husband … We are equal partners."
Equality and respect are two things these Muslims say need to be present to clear up current misconceptions.
"Let us take our bias out. Let us take any iota of hatred out," Fahmy said. "I accept people who do not believe in Islam, but they shouldn't hate it."

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - Road crews all over East Tennessee were busy Thursday preparing for a storm that is expected to bring freezing rain and icy conditions to the region for Friday's morning commute.
In Blount County, the trucks were in and out of the salt bin Thursday afternoon, filling up with a mixture of salt and gravel that they were spreading across the county's roads. In the county's mountainous terrain, the gravel-salt mixture known as chat is essential for icy weather."With the chat on it, the cars going to move a little. Without it, it goes in a ditch. It's got a lot of traction with this mixture right here," said Scott White, of the Blount County Highway Department.The supervisors watched the Doppler weather radar throughout the night to be prepared for whatever the storm may bring."We expect the worst. It doesn't matter it's part of a forecast or the whole one, you always prepare for the worst," he said.They expect areas like Happy Holler and up towards Seymour to be hit the worst, but they want everyone to stay home if possible.
"Stay off the roads, let us do our work. That seems to be more of the problem than anything for starting to work. The guys on the plows are risking their lives," White said. "My urgency is people stay off the road and let us get this stuff off the roads."A big concern is some of the low roads that saw a lot of flooding from last week's storms could freeze over and cause an even greater problem.
Blount County workers hope Thursday's salting will help prevent that.
Beginning at 6 a.m., they will hit the roads with more salt and plows to clear off the roads as quickly as possible.
Knoxville road crews are working through the night to keep city streets as safe as possible.
"We're going to work all the way until we load the salt, then we're going to go out there and stage. we have 6 trucks running the brine operation," said Chris Webster with City of Knoxville Public Service.
Trucks have already sprayed salt brine on the city's major roads and secondary streets.
Thursday night, they will work on neighborhood streets.
"Pre-treating is all you can do, and then be ready, if the weather does get bad to put the salt down, and that should eliminate the problem," Webster added.
They planned to set up salt trucks in six different staging areas throughout the city starting at about 3:00 a.m. Friday morning.
Crews will also be on hand to help with messy roads in case another agency has trouble with slick spots.
"If it gets slick and ice, and the power lines break, we'll do our best to get out there and get it taken care of and if the fire department has any issues or ambulance service, then we'll be there," Webster said.
Tennessee Department of Transportation trucks sprayed the highways and interstates with brine starting Thursday morning.

Crooks and Liars!!! AVOID
Posted by
I ordered a bedroom set shown on their website over the phone on November 30th, 2011. It was shown as a dark black/brown colour called "cappuccino". I was told it was in stock and would be delivered within approximately 2 weeks.
Almost 6 weeks later on January 9th, 2012, a bedroom set arrived. It was not even close to the colour advertised. I have side by side comparison pictures clearly showing the dramatic difference.
I contacted them in order to resolve this issue. They fully admitted the dramatic difference in colour. I even have emails from them saying, "Regarding your claim, there is a huge color variation from what you received and what is on our site and our supplier's. We have sent pictures to the supplier and we are currently awaiting their response." They then made me wait another week, then told me they would not ship out new set in the correct colour because they don't want to pay the shipping and it would cost me $200 if I wanted to return the wrong-coloured set.
I asked why should I pay $200 to return what they mistakenly sent me?? I was told by Michelle, their claims agent that it was their policy. I asked to speak to a manager and she said the owner Sergei Tashlikowich would call me. He not only didn't call me, he ducted my call for several days.
This company is full of crooks and liars. AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!

Utterly Incompetent & Completely Dishonest
Posted by
Unless you want to be frustrated (and possibly out more cash than you'd expected) do NOT buy anything from Wholesale Furniture Brokers. The company is completely incapable of fulfilling a delivery, but is all too happy to take your money (they are a middleman, so they just want that cash in hand, and will worry about the details later...maybe). But if you get frustrated after waiting MONTHS for your furniture and attempt to cancel the order, they'll pull out their standard contract, which guarantees that they will make money from you, regardless of whether they can deliver what you've paid for in a reasonable period of time.
SEPT. 6 – Placed order; order history notes that "unit is on second floor, up stairs." WFB informed me that item was back ordered at least 8 weeks. I said I would wait.
SEPT. 10 – WFB processed $379.80 as a deposit.
Dec. 11–I received from Wholesale Furniture Brokers stating that my bedroom set was ready to ship out in the next few days with the North American Van lines agent - Santini.
DEC. 12 – I e-mailed WFB to confirm that all parties had my phone number and to state that between Dec. 13 – 17 and Dec. 20-22, I would be unable to have furniture delivered; a Belinda confirmed that she'd make sure appropriate parties had my contact information.
DEC. 13 – WFB notified me that my order was "in transit," my credit card had been debited $1519.20, and that the delivery agent would be in contact with me to make delivery arrangements.
DEC. 27 – Having not heard from any shipping agent reps, and having no success reaching shippers via phone, I called WFB and e-mailed an Alyssa there.
DEC. 27 – WFB notified me that my furniture had arrived at a "local agent," which would notify me "shortly" to arrange delivery.
JAN. 4 – I was again unsuccessful trying to reach shippers on phone, so I called WFB and e-mailed a Caroline there. I explained that if this couldn't be resolved I'd just cancel the order, as I needed bedroom furniture.
JAN.. 4 – STI Home Express sent an auto-email notification stating that a customer service rep would be contacting me within 24 hrs to set up delivery date.
JAN. 4 – I finally spoke to the shipping agent and learned that my dresser had been completely destroyed in transit. They told me that I should talk to WFB before making shipment arrangements.
JAN. 6 & 7 - WFB's owner, Sergei, called me and e-mailed me apologizing that he had "been away on vacation over Christmas" and would "get started on getting furniture delivered minus the [damaged] dresser."
JAN. 7 – after calling a Belinda at the shipper, I e-mailed and called WFB with "I will be canceling this order" in subject line.
JAN. 8 – Sergei called me in the morning; I returned his call and sent him an e-mail regarding setting up delivery of damaged dresser.
JAN. 10 – called WFB and broker; e-mailed Sergei stating that if we could not arrange delivery of damaged dresser, I would cancel the entire order. I explained to Sergei that I preferred to have the entire set delivered at the same time as I did not want to have to stay home from work twice. Sergei stated that this would be too difficult, so I agreed to separate deliveries.
JAN. 11 – The bed, mirror and night table were delivered – minus the hardware necessary to put the bed together. (I wasn't able to try to put the bed together for a week, though, as I had to JAN. 19 - I called WFB on my return to have the hardware delivered. The person I spoke to stated that they'd have it "FedExed right out."
JAN. 22 – I got a call from Rizzon Furniture to confirm my address to mail the missing bed hardware.
JAN. 24 – I stayed home from work to have dresser delivered.
JAN. 24 @12 pm (Eastern time) – The shipper called to inform me that they "just realized" that I live on the second floor, and because they'd only sent one delivery person, they wouldn't be able to make the delivery. I immediately called WFB to try to inform them that I couldn't stay home from work for a third day and they'd have to somehow find/authorize another man to help getting furniture up stairs (I stated I'd even help except I'm very small and wouldn't be a whole lot of help). WFB informed me that Sergei would get back to me.
JAN. 24 @3 pm – Sergei called me and claimed that they "didn't realize" that I was on the second floor – despite the fact that a) the shipping agent told me that she had been given this information, but just hadn't noticed it earlier, and b) "2nd floor" is clearly indicated in WFB's customers files on me – and I also made this clear in more than one phone and e-mail exchange with both shippers and WFB. I informed Sergei that I was calling AmEx because I needed bedroom furniture and at this point, since they'd been able to fulfill the order, I'd be taking my business to a company that could.
UPSHOT: I am still contesting this issue with American Express. But in the meantime, WFB has returned the dresser to the manufacturer and is claiming that they are entitled to several hundred dollars in shipping fees and other "penalties." DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!

Mrs. Fantastic on 2008-06-05:
First of all, $1900 for a bedroom set doesn't sound like you were dealing with a 'whole sale' company at all. And you had to wait for delivery 4 months? The whole deal sounded shady from the beginning. You should've stuck with a reputable company. Sorry about your experience. May others learn from it.

I am currently having an extremely similar problem with this company...I'll be writing a review soon...
dirtydeals on 2010-11-07:
WORST COMPANY EVER! I am starting to come to the conclusion that they only deal in damaged furniture. On September 17th we paid 3,630.00 for a bedroom set which took about a month to receive the mattress which was damaged. The rest of the furniture came after that and was also damaged. Wholesale Furniture won't replace the damaged pieces or give our money back in full refund which was agreed at the beging of the order. They need to close their doors! I am in the process of contacting 7 on your side. Maybe they can help. I also have an attorney looking into this matter. I hope we can get the word out about this company. If your on Facebook, myspace, twitter or anything else that would pass the word please do so. They need to be stopped.
Xandon on 2010-12-01:
I'm having a big issue with this company, Wholesale Furniture Brokers Canada (www.gowfb.ca) as well. DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
I ordered a sofa sectional October 7th 2010. I received email confirmations etc. and an expected delivery date of November 12th 2010. They said normally they would ship out of B.C. but the particular COLOUR (COLOUR!!) I wanted was only available from California.
October 22nd, the status showed the sofa was "picked up" in California. (2 full weeks later!) It should have been on the road by then.
October 25th, the status showed it was loaded in California....I guess it took them 3 days to put the sofa on the truck...
November 1st, the status showed it was unloaded in Indianapolis. (the opposite direction of the proper destination, Alberta Canada).
November 4th, the status showed the sofa was RE-loaded in Indianapolis. But when I talked to BELINDA she told me it was in Toronto. Weird, nothing like that showed up in the status updates!
November 10th, the status showed that the sofa had been sent back to California and unloaded. Rather than to Alberta, where it should have gone.
November 16th, the status showed the sofa was re-loaded back onto a truck. (I guess it takes them 3 days to get a sofa on a truck and 6 days to take it off...must be one heavy sofa!)
November 26th, the status of the sofa is Richmond B.C. (where they have a warehouse apparently). It was unloaded here.
November 26th, that same day it was shown to have been re-loaded.
AND NOW. The sofa was supposed to arrive today. I waited all day. Took the time off work and made sure I was here. BELINDA told me it was here. It's still not. And there are no more status updates as of yet.
Luckily, we paid with PayPal and have filed a dispute. Paypal will deal with them directly and we will get our money back if we do not receive the sofa.
What a bunch of stress! All for somewhere to sit!
treesrule on 2011-03-02:
in the process of dealing with the same thing. I have gone through the Better Business Bureau to try to get my money back from them. they have had over $550 of mine for 8 months now and will not refund it to me even though I cancelled the order BEFORE they shipped it due to an UNREASONABLE wait time (months). Avoid this company at all costs!!! It would be faster to build yourself that dining room that you have always wanted than it would be to get it from these guys. And cheaper too.
Sally on 2012-05-07:
Thank you all for taking the time to share your experiences. I was contemplating ordering a sectional through WFB but will now turn tail and run to a reputable furniture store!
Andrew on 2013-03-27:
I tried to get a swatch for a sectional but they insisted that I place my order for the whole couch then they would hold it and only charge for the $5 swatch. I don't see why they need to charge for swatches or why they need the whole order. No getting around this either in live chat or on the phone. Seems very fishy. Changed my mind, didn't give them my credit card number and will be going to a real store with a showroom.
CJ on 2013-09-14:
Wow!!! Not good!!! My gut instinct when on the phone with Ginni the representative was not good but I went against my instinct and still placed the order.. Thank goodness my credit card was maxed out which I told them I had to put money on it and they said they would just put my order on hold. Well,, today I read the true reviews of this company, called my credit card company and blocked my card and ordered a new card number. I will now email WFB and let them know I've cancelled my order just in time. Thanks for all of you but so sorry you had to go through this.

Absolutely Shocking
Posted by
SHips within 3-5 business days is a total lie. After over 6 weeks my purchase had still not left the warehouse. I tried to cancel my order numerous times due to the delay and they shipped it anyhow and then once I told them I would not accept it, they told me I could not have a refund until the purchase was resold. Almost a year later - it has still not sold supposedly and I am still out over $500.
Do not purchase anything from this company. Besides poor customer service, they are dishonest. they have even lied to the external review panel looking into my case.

After visiting this retailer's website and reading the cancellation terms I would NEVER buy anything from them. They show an average 28% restocking fee as well as freight charges both ways assessed on the customer for any returns.

Crooks, Robbers, Scammers
Posted by
KAMLOOPS, VANCOUVER BC -- I ordered a Sacramento Cream Leather Sectional Sofa Set with Chaise, online.
When I received the order it was white, not leather, cheap quality, stained, marks and damaged, thought it was a bad joke, from some fake person trying to rob me???
I returned the piece of crap and they want to charge me shipping and re-stocking fees.
These people are scammers and should be shut down. I have gone to the highest level to get my full refund. That company should be shut down ASAP.
Bunch of crooks trying to hide by a policy that they design for themselves to get as much money from fake advertising and misleading customers with their pretty online catchy website.
Please everyone don't let them get away with it. I got my full refund. Go after them, shut them down, don't do business with them. Terrible!!!!!!!!

Why Not File a Dispute With Your Credit Card Company?
Posted by
OTTAWA -- With all these complaints about this company, I wonder why only one person filed a dispute with their credit card company? There is usually a guarantee that if you are not happy with your online purchase such as one like this, you can dispute the charge with your credit card company and get a full refund. They in turn will go after the company to recoup their money. Sounds like a win-win. Knowing this, I will attempt to make a purchase through this company using my credit card anyway. I know I'm risking that the bed I want may not be the best quality, but even if it isn't I know I will get a full refund with no hassles.

Beyond Frustrated Almost 6 Months
Posted by
BC -- I ordered dining room furniture 6 23 2013 from this company. I just finished the order with them this past week. I was sent 4 chairs when I ordered 8. I was up charged $560. I did get back only half. Amanda said it was a take it or leave it refund. She faulted me half for approving the incorrect order. About 80% of the furniture arrived damaged twice.
I involved the Ohio Attorney General to get a refund on the hutch which the large door was cracked and had to be glued back together. They wanted me to pay full price because a furniture medic glued it and stained it. They offered 10% off and I ended up getting 20% off. I had to stand up for myself, pray for justice, and file a case to get it resolved. It was the worst purchasing experience ever for me. Their policy is to resolve issues in a timely manner. It was a week and a half from a half a year. Yes their prices were the lowest out there. It was not worth it for me. The focus is not making it right.
I told them I am not going away until it is made right. They try to wear you down and drag things out beyond a timely manner. Buyer beware.

CALIFORNIA -- I ordered a bedframe with drawers and rails for my in this company and told them before deliver to call 30 minutes before delivery so that I will make sure I will be home driver called but before 30 minutes he dropped in front and left. As soon as the driver called I drove home takes 20 minutes for me to get home from where I was when he called.
Anyway I was very happy that finally my bed frame arrive I was waiting for many weeks. So I started putting up my bed frame but when I opened the bed rail it was split in 1/2 emailed the company 2x chat with them on line sent a picture of the broken rail no reply.
Now I don't know what to do I have a new bed frame but with broken rail spent lots of money.
This will be my last time ordering any furniture on line and I will never recommend this company.
I am still hoping they will replace my rail.

Hi everyone I wrote a very disappointed review about this company couple weeks ago about my bedrail split in 1/2.
Now is different story.I received a new set of bedrail now I am very satisfied.So everybody please disregard my 1st review about the wholesale funiture broker.
-very good price
-you can chat live in their site
-if you have any problem with the product just take a picture like I did and they will send you a replacement
-we have to understand they are a bit far from Toronto so it take a while to diliver but for the price I will buy from them again and I highly recommend them this time.

Slow Service

CANADA -- I decided to buy a sectional from Wholesale Furniture Brokers because I bought a new home. I bought the couch online Feb 29th. We didn't have the house yet but I wanted to buy it that day because the website said it was the last day for free shipping. Well I now know that they ALWAYS have free shipping. They just keep changing the date that it ends. Anyway... I was told that the couch I ordered was on back order (about a week after I purchased it) and it wouldn't be in stock until March 10th. Then when March 12th rolled around, I emailed and asked if my couch was being shipped yet and they then told me it would be on back order until mid April! Mid April rolled around and I was told that it would be in stock April 20th. Once they finally got it in stock, it took them a full week to get it on the truck, then a week to get it on the road. It is now May 14th, and according to the shipper it has been in Indiana for a full week, sitting at some loading station.
I also want to add that on their website it says that it will make special arrangements to deliver on nights and weekends. When I contacted them about this they told me it would cost me an extra $180 to have it delivered after 3:30pm! Which is convenient because I told them that is the time my boyfriend gets home from work.
I still have not received my couch almost 3 months later. Lets hope it is in good shape.

Never Order @ www.gowfb.ca

KAMLOOPS -- Admittedly if NO star was an option, that is where this rating would lie.
This company has has failed on every level; customer service, delivery, product and reliability. Though I will commend them on a convincing and attractive website, that is clearly NOT designer by the customers.
I (ike countless others) have been dealing with this on-line company for over 4 months, trying to resolve an issue with my daughters bunk bed. To date, I must say it is the worst customer service I have ever encountered. I learned today that it has taken them over SIX weeks to process(not even ship) a replacement part for a bed. I have spent endless hours on the phone, sent countless emails and it has gotten me no further ahead. They have my money, I have no bed.
The president's response to my frustration was to ask me what I wanted him to doa about it...no apology, no assistance, no customer service...THAT should be their tag line on the website!!

Caveat Emptor Wholesale Furniture Brokers
Posted by
Found their website. Good looking furniture and lots of good customer reviews. Ordered a platform bed to see how it went before ordering more. Good thing!
After sitting for weeks in terminals in California and British Columbia, it was finally delivered - 3 months later. I'd forgotten what it looked like! Anyway, made the delivery guys wait while I checked it. Didn't seem right. There were drawers with it. Accepted the shipment and moved stuff to assemble the bed. I'm 60 and single so lots of work. Guess what? Wrong f---ing bed! So, I blast off an email and a gal in shipping got right on an order for the correct bed. Delivered 2 weeks later (much better) but has the wrong legs.
I've demanded a refund. They've got my money, but I have 2 beds. We'll see.
WTF do you think about that!? Anyone know if I can hold their stuff till my $$ is returned?

Moved From Other Review: Trying to get a remedy for a problem from Wholesale Furniture Brokers is a problem.
The name Wholesale Furniture Brokers is just what it says - they are brokers - so if you have a problem the furniture company has to be dealt with. I posted earlier about the bed I ordered that took 3 months to come. It was the wrong model. They sent a replacement bed that had the wrong legs. I notified them of the issue and after another month (4 months now - is that reasonable? NO) spoke to a person in management.
Had to send pictures of wrong parts, then had to call furniture company. They advised the legs are on back order for 4-6 weeks. That means that it will be 5 1/2 - 6 months before I have the bed. That's if the parts are correct.
Demanded a refund more than a month ago but it hasn't even been acknowledged. Asked twice more last week but again hasn't been acknowledged. I could have bought a bed anywhere else and had it already.
I sent a complaint through the British Columbia Consumer Information site and I have also contacted the Better Business Bureau of British Columbia and am waiting for those complaints to get to Wholesale Furniture Brokers. They are NOT a member of the BBB and that might tell you something.
Because Wholesale Furniture Brokers is an online store it is hard to deal with. I have furniture boxes taking up space in my living room - there is no where else to put them in my small place. I have spent hours trying to resolve the problems and dealing with this company with no resolution in site. Please consider this and the other problems posted at online sites about Wholesale Furniture Brokers before you purchase from them.
Also, note that there are only positive customer comments on their site and note that there is nowhere to post a comment. It's obvious they choose what they want to post.
CJ on 2013-09-14:
Very sorry with your experience with the bed.. Horrible!! Yes, these websites draw us in with their great prices, free shipping etc. but when push comes to shove buying local from a repretable well known company is the way to go. No one should have to inspect everything in front of a delivery man and No way should a delivery company have to sit around and wait while they have a job to do. There are local companies that will take your old mattress and bring in and set up your new one. Not leave your stuff outside. thanks for writing your experience.

The parents of a teenager who died after taking synthetic marijuana are suing the drug's makers. Chase Burnett, 16, was a honors student and high school soccer player. The state medical examiner says his death last March in Fayette County was caused by the smoking of synthetic marijuana.A lawsuit filed this week says his parents found a package of a potpourri called Mojo Diamond Extreme near his body.The suit claims that the Georgia manufacturer knew that minors smoke the product, a form of synthetic marijuana, to get high.Chase Burnett's father, David, is the first parent to sue an alleged maker of synthetic marijuana, which is also known as Spice."He would want me to do what's right, which is to make a stance, speak out, educate people and to get this poison off store shelves," said David Burnett. The lawsuit names Peyton Palaio of Cobb County and what it says are his businesses Omerta Labs, WG distribution and Lunar Labs.FOX 5 found Palaio on Facebook, where he lists his occupation as principal chemist of Omerta Labs."This is another weapon to go against them. And it is easier than a criminal case and it hits them where it really hurts and that's in their wallets," said Burnett's attorney, Kristofer Schleicher. The state of Georgia has waged war on synthetic marijuana with a law named after Chase Burnett. But since its passage earlier this year, the GBI discovered that Spice manufacturers had found a new ways to make and sell the product that bypassed the law. A second crackdown is underway.In a GBI search warrant of Palaio's Marietta business dated July 5th, 2012, an agent said he found materials that later tests revealed were AM-2201. That's the same chemical the lawsuit says was used in the Mojo Diamond smoked by Chase Burnett.A lawyer for Peyton Palaio in a statement to Fox 5 said: "The defendants express their sincere condolences to the Burnett family for this tragic loss. However, Mojo Diamond Extreme 100 X is not the defendant's product. Mojo Diamond Extreme 100 X is not sold, manufactured or distributed by these defendants. Any statements or allegation to the contrary are incorrect.""I will tell you that the pain and suffering that we feel on a daily basis is real. Although we have faith and our faith is intact and will never waiver, we still feel the physical pain of losing somebody that you absolutely adore and love. And it is real," said Burnett. Right now there is a temporary ban on all known chemicals used to make and sell synthetic marijuana is Georgia.The legislature will try once again to fashion a permanent law that keeps it off store shelves.

Read: Losing The Season Isn't An Option
At Sportsnet, Mark Spector writes that the belief coming out of the NHL office is that the owners told Commissioner Gary Bettman that losing this season to a lockout is "not an option" and that it is time to make a deal.
He writes that those have been the orders, not to have the season cancelled, since the beginning of the lockout and now that time is growing short it is time to make the proper moves/concessions to make a new CBA and start the season.
Spector writes "The owners have never wanted to lose an entire season over this, even knowing that they will make their losses back through the life of a more favourable CBA. Players, we believe, are desperate to play. They know better than anyone that every dollar lost is irretrievable on their side; that every paycheque today's player misses will be made up by a future player who might only be in bantam today."
From what I'm hearing, NHL made move because several owners who have been eager to play had been pressuring Bettman to reach out.—

Current Section 8 participants -- Our current Newsletter is available along with other important information and forms.
The Housing Authority of the County of San Diego has programs for low-income households to help them pay their rent. A portion of the rent is paid on behalf of the families directly to their landlords. For a list landlords and units willing to participate in the rental assistance programs, go to our Available Units page. Be aware that families are not restricted to the units on this list. You may also look for units on your own. If you are looking for a unit to accommodate the needs of a person with disabilities, the Housing Authority is committed to provide services and resources to help you. The National Accessible Housing Clearing House and ForRent.com have information on accessible units. The Housing Authority is neither affiliated with, nor endorses the National Accessible Housing Clearing House or ForRent.com.
In order to qualify for the programs, you must live in certain areas of the county, and you must place your name on our waiting list. The wait may be 8-10 years, or more depending on our funding levels. Unfortunately, we don't have emergency assistance available. These programs are:
HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER PROGRAM - Eligible families selected off our waiting list can choose a unit in any area we serve that an owner is willing to join the program. They must pay at least 30% of their adjusted monthly income for rent and utilities. We will pay the rest to the landlord, as long as the total rent and utilities are at, or below a certain standard, called a payment standard. If the rent is too high, the unit may not be eligible for assistance. Click here to see a more in depth description of the Housing Choice Voucher Program.
Eligible Households -- Highest priority goes to:
Applicants who live or work in the jurisdiction of the Housing Authority of the County of San Diego and are at least one of the following:
Eligible Units - The unit the family selects must meet certain standards. We will inspect the unit before any assistance is paid, and at least once a year, as long as assistance is being paid. The unit must always be in decent, safe, and sanitary condition. The unit checklist is available in our library.
Program Rules - The rights and responsibilities for participants of the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher can be found in the Family Handbook.
MODERATE REHABILITATION PROGRAM - This program offers privately owned rental units in East County for low-income families. There are approximately 135 of these units. If a unit becomes available, applicants are selected off our waiting list and referred to the landlord for screening and selection. If the landlord determines a family suitable, we will then determine if the family is eligible for participation in the program. Finally, the eligible family moves into the unit and pays a portion of the rent based on income, while we pay the remainder of the rent. The family's eligibility for continued participation is reviewed annually.
You may be eligible for the above programs if:
You must live or work in an unincorporated area of San Diego County, or in Chula Vista, Coronado, Del Mar, El Cajon, Escondido, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, Poway, San Marcos, Santee, Solana Beach, or Vista.
If you live outside of these areas, there are 5 other Housing Authorities in San Diego County. Contact the one for the city you live in.
Your total gross annual income must be at or below 50% of the San Diego County Area Median Income (AMI).
If you meet the above requirements and wish to apply for rental assistance, you may submit an application on-line at www.sdhcd.org. If you require specific accommodation to complete the application, please contact our office at (858) 694-4801 or (877) 478-LIST.

Alaska Plant Materials Center"Serving Alaska's needs in the production of native plants and traditional crops."
Welcome to the Alaska Plant Materials Center
The 405 acre Plant Materials Center (PMC), near Palmer was established by the Alaska Legislature in 1972 to promote the states agricultural industry. Grains, grasses, fruits, potatoes, shrubs, and trees are evaluated for the potential use in Alaska climates. Small quantities of these plant materials are released to Alaskan commercial growers who then increase the production of these materials and make them available for food, ornamental, and conservation purposes.
For more information on the individual Plant Materials Center programs please visit each program's webpages listed on the left or contact the Plant Materials Center directly.
What's New
Help us, help Alaskan agriculture!
The Alaska Plant Materials Center is surveying all Alaskan agricultural producers interested in future On-Farm trials for various crop trialing. We are interested in hearing from small and large producers as well as home gardeners.
If you are interested in the opportunity to be part of future trials please take the time to fill out the following survey. We will select future trial sites based on the information provided in this survey which is designed to help us match-up both producer and project needs.

FOX Chicago Sports Analyst Tom Waddle previews Sunday night's matchup between the Chicago Bears and Houston Texans.
It certainly wasn't perfect, but we did see progress last week. A 100 yard rusher, a 100 yard receiver, 3 touchdowns and zero interceptions from our quarterback. That's progress. More improvement is gonna be necessary to beat the Houston Texans. The heat will be on, so I'm hoping for a heavy dose of Matt Forte, runs and screens and lots of Jay Cutler outside the pocket.
The Texans provide a perfect model. They are a run first team, thanks to the presence of Arian Foster. Foster ranks fifth in the league in rushing, but is averaging just 4 yards per carry. The commitment to the running game leads to the best play action passing attack in the NFL. Matt Schaub executes play action to perfection using tight ends and crossing routes. Owen Daniels headlines a talented group of tight ends while Andre Johnson is still capable of big plays. The offensive line has allowed just 10 sacks this year.
The Texans get the edge on offense.
The big play production of this Chicago Bears defense has no equal. Twenty-five sacks, a league high 28 takeaways, and 7 defensive touchdowns. It's hard to believe they can keep this up, but there's also no signs of slowing. Charles 'Peanut' Tillman is the front runner for Defensive Player of the Year, and Brian Urlacher looks healthier and is now part of the beat downs administered to opponents on a weekly basis.
Peanut's biggest competition for the leagues top defensive honor is J.J Watt. He's the Texan wearing number 99 and playing like the hall of famer that wore the same number in burnt orange and navy blue. Watt leads the league with 10.5 sacks and 10 batted balls. He anchors the best front seven the Bears have seen this year. These Texans are solid at every level allowing just 286 yards and 17 points per game.
Even so, the Bears get the edge on defense.
Special Teams
It's nice to welcome Dave Toub's guys to the party. It took longer than anticipated, but last week should be the beginning of more "special" plays.
The Bears get the special teams edge.
What a matchup between two of the best the NFL has to offer. The Texans are the most balanced team the Bears have faced this year, on both sides of the football. After weeks of facing inferior opponents, Lovie's guys haven't been tested like this since the Week 2 mistake in Green Bay. Not only are the Texans talented, they are very disciplined, having committed a league low 6 turnovers. So, tough game to pick.
And when I find myself in a prognosticating bind, I lean on old reliable: "time and place." These Bears have won six straight and are brimming with confidence. They return to Soldier Field where the fan support, non-controlled climate, and home field advantage can make all the difference in the world. Settle in for a heavyweight bout. It will go the distance.
