Ari Ashe, wtop.com
ASHBURN, Va. - A ceremony honoring students who pledge to wear seat belts while driving had a somber tone after attendees learned that a Manassas teen, who recently died in a car accident, was not buckled up.
Michael Murphy Schmelzinger was 17 when he crashed his 2008 Ford Mustang into a tree on Lake Jackson Drive in Manassas Thursday morning. A source tells WTOP he was going almost 90 mph at the time.
"It was a tragic event that shouldn't have happened," says Sgt. Alvin D. Blankenship with the Virginia State Police. "We hope the people that aren't wearing it will take Michael's sacrifice and use it as a positive and put your seat belt on."
Lt. Jeff Dube of the Leesburg Police Department says Schmelzinger's story was used during the presentation to other students.
"It was timely to be able to reinforce his story to the young drivers in our presentation, to show a real world tragic event with consequences, and that if he buckled up, he could've been here today," he says.
Both officers unveiled the winner of the 2012-2013 "Put it Together" challenge on Friday, which pitted three Loudoun County high schools in a competition to generate the most student participation and safety belt usage.
The winner of the competition is Heritage High School in Leesburg.
"A seat belt can save your life," says Mercy Andrade, a Heritage High School senior. "Even if you think you're invincible, it doesn't hurt to just put on your seat belt. It doesn't take effort and it doesn't take any more time."
Andrade won an individual award for her efforts to buckle up and to get fellow students to follow suit. She says she takes the issue seriously after her father was injured in a crash. He was not wearing a seat belt, but he survived.
The Governors Highway Safety Association released a study earlier this week showing that deadly crashes involving 16- and 17-year-old teens jumped nearly 20 percent between January and June 2012, compared to the same period of 2011.
In Virginia, 306 drivers who weren't wearing seat belts were killed in crashes in 2011.
The GHSA tells WTOP in a tweet, "Virginia is in desperate need of a primary seat belt law."
Under Virginia law, a driver cannot be pulled over for not wearing a seat belt, but can receive a ticket if pulled over for another reason. Virginia is one of 18 states without a primary seat belt law.
In an informal poll of students in the "Put it Together" program, about 16 percent of teens admit to not wearing a seat belt regularly when driving.
"Some people think they're too cool for that," says Andrade. "Some of them say they'll just drive slow or It won't happen to me, so I don't see why I have to.'"
"I want them to know that they are affecting more people than themselves by not wearing a seat belt," says Blankenship. "They must think of their families, their siblings, their friends, if they die in crash. Just putting on the seat belt on will give them a chance to excel in life."

text: 5 Amazing!BikesForBen | 27/06/2008 | See all BikesForBen's reviews (2)This book is a quality buy and I think anyone would enjoy this book, if like me you'r not the most confident man with women this book is probably one of the best example's of what you can do with the right tips and if you put time and effort into mastering the art of pick-up ( getting girls) i think it also it would be a good book for women to read although intended for men i think it's important that women see how hard it is for men. You can't help but like Neil Strauss(Style) in the book and appreciate how far he goes from day one to the end. This book is'nt about teaching you how to pick-up girls it all about Neil Strauss's life and how he changed, there are parts where it tells you brief things to do but it's mainly about his story so don't buy it for that reason becasue it's not that type of book, ***** five stars a must read book

I come back to this site after a long long time and here's Andreus again. I remember him. We've had some quarrels. Btw, he claimed he could speak Arabic, but the sample he provided was jibberish.
He claimed a lot of things, but if he ever touched on a subject that I had studied it was clear that he actually knew very little.
translated it into Azerbaijani, and then that result into Albanian and then back into English and this is the result :
He claims a lot, but I have not researched that touched on a subject, if he really knew very little is understood.
one thing about the closet/you don't have to hurry/it will be bad tomorrow/so brother, don't you worry
So...this Andreus guy was a fake?
He was a shit stirrer, just like you. Maybe you are Andreus?
Everyone wants to be heard. No one wants to listen.
Tell me more about Sixthson.
No, John is talking about Darko's Facebook page. He was Waffles/Sex Kitten/Enchanted.
John is saying Darko's FB page is still active. He was himself on this forum, not a puppet.

I would like a new rule on this forum on how to cite the Buddha and Palicanon sources in general.
Reason for this suggestion: Misinterpreting the buddha or the palikanon and declaring it as true statements are likely to cause much confusion, doubt or anger. While i'm sure that stating misinterpreted statements as true is more of an unintentional mistake, clear rules for citations can prevent much harm for both the reader and the writer.
Citing sources literally also is a good way to get familiar with the sources themselves, which i regard as a positive thing when it comes to the Palicanon.
With that said, i feel that citing rules would be for the benefit of everyone and a good opportunity to train right speech and right effort.
Suggestion on how this rule could look like:
1. Citations should always be given with a link to (an english version of) the sutta. Accesstoinsight is easily accessible. Giving a link to the cited source invites other forum members to find and check out the suttas for themselves.
2. The name of the Sutta should be given / The short code.
Common codes are
DN -> Digha Nikaya
MN -> Majjhima Nikaya
SN -> Samyutta Nikaya
AN -> Anguttara Nikaya
KN -> Khuddaka Nikaya
The exact code for citation is always given in Access to insight at the top of the page.
Example --> "SN 56.36" Is right above the title of the sutta.
3. Quotes from other teachers, such as Ajahn Chah, the Dalai Lama or Sayagyi U Ba Khin should also only be cited if one can provide a source, too. Since not every text of other teachers might be available online, one should give as much information as possible as on the source. (e.g.: book title, context of the given talk,..)
4. The suttas should only be quoted from literal sources. Figuratively or interpreted statements ("The Buddha said you should love everyone.") should be clearly marked as such (perhaps by adding "[citation needed]" to the statement) or better: avoided in the first place.
Most users already quote their literal sources which is great and has already been very helpful for me on several occasions here. I'd be glad if we could establish some sort of standard for citing sources here. There is no need to accept my suggestion 1:1, but i'd appreciate if there would be any form or rule endorsing citing sources.

CENTRAL CITY, Ky. (2/14/14) — Muhlenberg Community Hospital interim CEO Steve Meredith was the guest speaker Thursday at the Greater Muhlenberg Chamber of Commerce monthly meeting held at the Central City Convention Center.
Meredith, who has began his interim position Nov. 1, pulled no punches when it came to the hospital's financial situation.
"MCH lost $1.7 million in 2012, and $4.4 million in 2013. By 2025 many smaller community hospitals will be closed. But I think MCH will be a survivor," Meredith said.
Meredith said he believes that MCH is on the right track.
"I believe MCH will be one of the hospitals that prospers, and for a very good reason. We know how to cut expenses without cutting quality. Also, our staff and administrators know how to communicate," Meredith said.
Meredith said he has learned in his 40 years working in hospitals he has learned one very important lesson. "When you're a CEO of a hospital, you learn to let others do their job, to let them do what they do best. Our various departments are second to none. Our doctors, nurses, EMS staff. They all work together to make sure the patient is treated with superior care," Meredith said.Before taking the MCH interim position, Meredith was the CEO of Twin Lakes Regional Medical Center in Leitchfield for nearly 30 years.

- Collection: Jewel
- Brand: Istanbul
- Material: 100% Olefin
- Weave: Machine Made
- Styles: Traditional Rugs
- Origin: Turkey
- Available in the following sizes: 2' 7" x 4' 1", 2' 3" x 7' 7", 3' 11" x 5' 7", 5' 3" x 7' 7", 6' 7" x 9' 3", 7' 10" x 9' 10", 9' 3" x 12' 6" and 5' 3" Round
I'm sure it's a fine rug however I am so disappointed that the colors are nothing like the photo. Never finished unwrapping.RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Well made, nice colors as shown in the green. It is an indoor/outdoor rug so that was my expectation.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I bought one runner first so that I could view it in person. Loved it! I ordered another runner and several smaller area rugs in the same pattern. I picked the blue (actually very dark blue/navy which is what I wanted). However if one wants a cream border, this border is not. It's more greenish/gold, which, for me, was perfect. I didn't want a light cream border. The pile is low and soft. Looks plush. Overall a very rich pattern. Price is great. I have several authentic large antique and high priced rugs, and I wanted these for the entry and hall areas where traffic is higher. I did read the other reviews and they did help. Also the comments regarding the curled end. I turned them over and let them stay that way for a couple days to straighten out. No problem.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
It's a good quality for a reasonable price. I have another similar rug I bought some time ago and we still enjoy it. It's not so expensive that I care if the cats rip it up. It also cleans up well.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Great rug for the price, I have 4 of them. Beautiful print, I would highly recommend this rug.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I love it! Colors are true,(I bought navy) lots of dark red as mentioned by others. Not high end, but better quality than local box stores for less money. It is exactly what I wanted, soft, lays flat with no problems, no odor, no fuzz. I was disappointed it took 14 days to get here, but that included Christmas & it was worth the wait.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
We purchased 2 large area Sarouk Jewel rugs for our lake house they are perfect for us there. We bought an additional runner. Love the colors, the quality and the price.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I got this rug in green. The quality is excellent and it looks like it cost much more than it did. The pile is medium low which is just what I wanted. It was delivered on time.
Great rug, but the color is different than it appears on-line. It has a lot of rust and olive tones, whereas in this photo, it looks more red and purple. Still love it!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
It's a fine rug and fits perfectly in the hallway that we had intended it for. It's a real beauty to look at, and we're happy with the choice...plus, the price was much more reasonable at this site than at other sites that offer the same rug at a higher price. The rug was also delivered in great time. Overall, I'd be happy to purchase from them again. Thanks!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I bought this rug for under my kitchen table. I am very pleased with the construction, quality and color of the rug. Delivery was prompt and in good condition. This was my first purchase from Rugs USA and I would purchase from them again.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Very good quality product. Color did not quite match what is shown on website, but acceptable.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
good color, very low odor, all around great.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Bought the dark blue version which is almost black as other reviewers noted. Beautiful rug at a great price. Excellent service--I actually got a reply when I asked about possible delivery dates.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Great rug for the money! It also arrived quite quickly - I would definately order rugs from you again. Thanks for a very good product and service.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
This rug is a great value for the price. The pattern is intricate with beautiful deep vivid colors. I feel the navy is a true navy blue.It is great for high traffic areas as it doesn't show the dirt. This is essential as we have a large Newfoundland dog! Vacuums well and feels soft to walk on. Highly recommend, especially for the price. Great service at USA Rugs. Will definitely shop here again!!!!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
First, let me tell you that this rug is really, really pretty. It's soft. It lays nicely. It is of great quality for the price. Once it shipped from the factory, it arrived quickly an in great shape. I am quite pleased with my rug, overall. Did I mention that it's really, really pretty? That being said, I will say that the colors are darker than I'd expected based on the pictures. I ordered it in navy. This is a really dark, nearly black navy. The reds are really deep, and stand out much more than in the photo. (I actually ended up putting it in a different room than I'd originally intended.)RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
It's a great rug, especially for the price!!!
Beautiful rug, perfect for my client. Great size for a great price.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Great Rug for the price!!!!
great rugs..great customer service!!RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Great rug for the price. I am returning it however as it is darker than I expected. The greens are reds are muddy colored and the blue is not a vibrant blue, but a dark navy. Since the room I am putting it in does not get much light, the navy looks black, which is not appropriate for a children's room. Overall, its soft, and well-made, just the wrong color for my house.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Great product for the price. We have pets in the house, so don't want to spend a lot on rugs, but do want them to look nice. This fits the bill perfectly.RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Love the quality and price of this rug. Usually I buy wool orientals for the dining room, but am really, really pleased with this rug. Even thinking of buying a spare!!
Love it! The colors are vivid and match what I expected from the online viewing. This is my 3rd purchase from rugsusa over a 10 year period......thanks.

Great job Federal Express
Posted by
COLORADO -- I would like to thank Federal Express for delivering my package just now, at 9:00 AM, Saturday, February 11th, 2012, in such bad weather.
I ordered an item yesterday morning, out of Daytona Beach, Florida, and decided to go with Federal Express Saturday delivery, because it would work best for me, I would be home.
Last night, a snow storm began, and I started to have doubts my package would arrive, due to weather conditions, and I tracked it, and as I was tracking it, so far so good.
When I awoke at 6AM this morning, I looked outside and had a shock, because we are having a bad snow storm. On the news last night, they made no mention that we would be having blizzard white out conditions. I thought to myself, oh well, if it does not arrive, it's not Federal Express's fault.
But it did arrive! I heard the doorbell, and ran downstairs to find the Federal Express delivery man on my door step, all happy and smiling with my package. I've always had excellent service with Federal Express, and am glad I made the decision to have my package sent for Saturday delivery.
Federal Express, well done!!!!

You've always had, for the most part excellent service? Somethin' tells me somethin's missin Lu-cee. Lu-cee???
Nice compliment Skye - it's great to see someone who understands how a delivery company works before dealing with them, and afterwards the company meets or exceeds those expectations. It does happen.
Skye on 02/11/2012:
I removed the "most part" wording out. I've always received excellent service, when choosing Federal Express. It's the USPS that always let me down quite a few times.
madconsumer on 02/11/2012:
FedEx rocks!! my company uses FedEx as our exclusive shipper. for nearly 10 years I used ups, but their service and commitment was less than acceptable.
very helpful review!
Nohandle on 02/11/2012:
The only time FedEx ever let me down was when I had shipped an overnight flat packet for delivery by 10:00 the next morning. I was a tad disappointed until I learned that airport had been closed for all flights both incoming and outgoing. Not a whole lot you can do about that and I certainly didn't blame them. And I didn't request reimbursement for failure to deliver as requested. A little common sense comes into play here.
Starlord on 02/11/2012:
I second the kudos to FedEx. I spoke with HP Support on Monday about a replacement hard drive, and they said I woul;d have it by Friday. Lo and behold, the FedEx lady rang our doorbell on Wednesday morning. Two thumbs up!

A nice positive review, Skye! We've always had good service from Fedex, as well.
nikalseyn on 02/13/2012:
I, too am impressed with FedEx. We now ship all our packages going stateside with FedEx. We are still stuck shipping APO with the USPS and are amazed by the efficiency of FedEx compared to the antiquated USPS. At FedEx there is ample parking; automatic doors(convenient with large boxes to be shipped); efficient and friendly employees compared to obese, rude, and arrogant government employees. And, the best part: I understand FedEx is non-union---a definite plus.

My nightmare experience with Fedex Ground Home Delivery has been just the opposite. It all started when on February 3, I placed an online order for a LCD computer monitor with Dell, Inc. It was estimated to be delivered in 5 to 7 days. Sure enough, Dell's appointed shipper, Fedex Ground, brought it to my home town, Baltimore, within 5 days. But for the last 4 days, the package has been enjoying joy rides on Fedex Home Delivery truck, a separate unit of Fedex. I will explain.
Initially it was scheduled for delivery on February 9, but did not reach me. Second and third time, it was scheduled for delivery on February 12 and February 13 respectively, and again it was not delivered. Each time it was scheduled for delivery, I have had to stay home the entire day to receive and sign for the package. After lugging it around in the area the truck returns to Fedex Home distribution facility and a staff person enters it's status in the computer as "Delivery Exception due to Weather, Attempted Delivery". Yes we have had considerable snowfall this year, but on the days of scheduled delivery it has been bright and shiny and the traffic has moved at a reasonable pace. I can understand Fedex may have had difficulty delivering it on February 9 but surely Fedex Home should have been able to deliver it on February 12. This of course only makes sense if Fedex Ground were more organized and planned their deliveries based on what can be delivered in a day and delivered packages received first. Calls to Fedex have resulted in little help. Ditto to my calls to Dell, who incidentally have their customer service representatives sitting some 8,000 miles away and have little clue as to the appointed shipper. Dell representative's best suggestion is that I should just wait until the package is delivered to me!
In the meantime, I shudder every time Fedex Home website allerts me my package is on the truck for delivery as it means another day holed up in my home. Scrabble anyone?

FedEx killed my dog too
Posted by
MAURY COUNTY, TENNESSEE -- Just before Christmas, 2010, while I was out buying dog food, a FedEx driver came into my yard to deliver a package (I guess) and killed my dog and left him in the snow to die without even checking the dog's injuries or notifying me until asked about it by law enforcement. I was gone only a little over an hour. The week before, the dog had barked at the driver and he left furious and cursing under his breath, so I didn't even have to think about who did it. The most unnerving aspect of the incident was that the dog had no signs of being "accidentally run over" as the lying bum told me and law enforcement.
The "detective" assigned to "investigate" the incident never even saw the scene where it happened, never saw a single photo of the scene, and formed his "opinion" about what happened without even letting me know that he was finished with his "investigation." I was told by [snip] "That's Messed Up!" website, that it was assumed that the driver "accidentally hung him with the bumper while backing out." This is the type of generalizing and stupidity that causes so many crimes to go unsolved.
Had this "judge/detective" gotten off his butt and done his job properly he would have seen that NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD "BACK" OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY!! It has a large area, similar to a cul-de-sac, that allows for a car, truck, or even a semi to pull in and without any "backing" at all, circle and leave. The house was previously owned by a semi driver and I'm sure that is what he designed the driveway for. In addition, like the other story here, my driveway is over a quarter mile, close to 1/2 mile long. The dog was a registered German Shepard in prime condition, 10 months old, and I have no doubt whatsoever that a truck traveling at 10mph would be able to run over his head (the only place there was trauma) with him giving it his full attention. Also THE DOG WASN'T IN THE DRIVEWAY, HE WAS IN THE GRASS APPROX. 10' FROM THE DRIVEWAY AND APPROX. 110 yards. FROM WHERE THE PACKAGE WAS LEFT! THERE WAS NO GRAVEL OR TREADMARKS ANYWHERE ON THE DOG AND NO BLOOD OR HAIR OR EVEN DISTURBED GRAVEL ANYWHERE IN THE AREA! (Very light gray gravel just washed by melting snow)
When asked if FedEx would replace my dog, their spokesman said that he had been in "contact with the family and expressed their condolences." THIS IS A BLATANT LIE! There is no "family" as I live alone and the only contact I've had from FedEx was the liar who came to deliver another package THE NEXT DAY AFTER LAW ENFORCEMENT STARTED ASKING THEM ABOUT IT. He said that he did not drive the day my dog was killed. He admitted he was the one my dog barked at, and he was delivering on the day he told me this lie, but it was an anonymous "someone else" who actually killed the dog, he just "forgot to contact me" after he told the "guilty driver" that "I will handle it". It was a driver who was "so upset" that he left my home and felt he should tell his supervisor-the liar I was talking to. Not to tell me anything or see if the dog needed a vet. NO NOTE WAS LEFT, NO PHONE CALL UNTIL THE "DETECTIVE" TOLD HIM TO CALL ME AND SAY SOMETHING" . My dog was at home minding his business, he would come to anyone offering him a snack. EVEN-IF-HE-HAD-PREVIOUSLY-BARKED-AT-YOU!!!

Sorry for you loss, but things don't add up. How do you suggest the dog was killed, and what proof do you have that the driver did it?
Alain on 01/16/2011:
You can contact an attorney about this to pursue it.
Skye on 01/16/2011:
I'm very sorry for the loss of your dog. You might consider a necropsy,*animal autopsy* to find out the exact cause of death. From what you posted, it does not sound like your dog was run down, but only a necropsy will give you the answers you are looking for.
Again so sorry of the loss of your precious dog.
trmn8r on 01/16/2011:
I'm sorry to hear about your dog, but you would need definitive proof to know that the driver caused his death. This would involve a thorough examination of the dog as well as evidence a particular truck caused the injury (or a witness).
I have a large fenced area where I let my dog run, but I always bring put her in the house when I leave the property.
Ytropious on 01/16/2011:
Sounds like the dog was not tethered or fenced. There is no way the dog was never on the driveway unless you are insinuating that the driver was driving through the grass. I'm pretty sure there would be tire tracks. This is why you NEVER let your dog roam, even on your property. Accidents can happen. It's not a risk I would take, but that's just me.
If on the other hand you are insinuating that the driver came out of the van and bashed the dog, that's pretty harsh accusations. Unless your dog was being violent and he had to defend himself. Again, could have been prevented if the dog was in a contained area, not left to roam your property.

People have no training at Fed-ex - Poor service
Posted by
On 6-24-11 I received a call from an employee of fed-ex express who said they were going to deliver toner ink I had just ordered from my printer supplier. It was supposed to be overnight delivery and this employee gave me a tracking number and claimed the package would be delivered on Friday, June 24, 2011. I waited all day and no one rang my doorbell or left a unable to deliver slip on my front door. Three days later, on June 27, 2011 I called a warehouse of fed-ex here in Oregon, Wi to find out where the package was. No one from the company had called me to inform me they could not deliver the package. The employee I talked with told me it was not delivered because it did not have an apartment number on it. When I informed him it was Apt. 1, he said it would be delivered the next day. Two or three hours later on June 27 another different employee called me and told me they could not deliver the package at all without authorization from the company it came from which happened to be Dell. I had ordered an ink cartridge for the printer and I never before had a problem. I was angry that this package would be delayed even further and argued and argued with this employee as to why they could not now deliver that package that they had in their hands. It had the right name, it had the right address, why could they not deliver it. If they had ID, I would show them ID. The package had to be signed for anyway. No, she would not deliver it until she had authorization from Dell and I did not know when she would call Dell and when Dell would call her and give her the authorization. We got into quite an argument because she would not bend and deliver the package. I asked her why the other person said it would be delivered the next day.
I finally told her to send it back to Dell. I would reorder it. Perhaps then, I would make sure I got it. The trouble is these people are all independent contractors and they get treated so badly by Fed-Ex, they are always leaving and new ones are coming in and they must not have any training or any common sense or courtesy. I hope I get this next package and get my ink cartridge.

I use online tracking for FedEx, UPS, etc.
This is a complaint against Dell, in my opinionm for having the wrong address, assuming that you gave it to them. The shippee can't change the delivery address - the sender has to do that. It's a security thing. Always has been this way I believe, and the same at UPS.
Adrian on 02/12/2014:
There are reasons why bank and courier company asked many questions/details and advised you to take other options that may be an extreme hassle for you.
If they take the easy way for you and nothing goes wrong, great. But they have encountered numerous time when shipper or receiver sue them for taking wrongful instructions and bring in the media to tarnish their image even when they are just trying to help the poor "you".
But being in customer service myself, some of us are poor in managing and explaining to 1st time customer about brief process in the company and upset many who keep asking "why not?" to their queries.
Keep in mind, if you are nice when someone pick up the phone, most of the time they will be too, and give each other a chance to talk, respect. If he is still a fool, then escalate to a manager. Let's appreciate the little things and be happy each day :)

Forgery, Fraud And Breach Of Contract
Posted by
This happened to me twice. The first time I called the vendor to tell them we have moved and they said the package was on its way, I called the FedEx to intercept the package and while getting transferred and pass around I looked at the tracking number online and it said delivered, How the delivery guy manage to deliver the package to a empty house and get a signature is beyond me. The second time was last month, first day the Delivery guy left a door tag with a X mark next to the signature area witch said sing here and will live the package at the door and I did next day the driver left another door tag but this time no X, I got mad and called the FedEx and they said they are not going to deliver it again until Tuesday as they are close Sunday and Monday I got so upset that I called the vendor who was not very helpful they said it will be delivered Wednesday at witch time I said cancel the order and they said the only way to cancel the order is not to sign for it and don't accept the package, I went to work on Monday and come home to a big package at my door when I called the FedEx they said someone signed for it.... and faxed me a paper with MY signature on it. To make the matter worse trying to protract themselves they have my 20 year old son as the caller and contact person too, who was at the collage 200 miles away, just proving that they pull the old record as he has been dealing on eBay since he was 12, Forgery is in their Policy other wise two forgery by two different drivers. The next one will be on National TV....... I am going all out with Surveillance cameras.
or even see If local TV defenders group would be interested in this.

Loaded Fraudulent Charges & Equipment Destruction
Posted by
MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE -- I am a blind business owner and requested assistance with shipment of my office equipment November 2009 from Texas to Colorado. The agent on the phone said she had no problem assisting me and there would be no charge for the help since I was visually impaired. I requested the shipment be sent to my office receiving station in Colorado and the company refused to deliver to a competitors address. I made arrangements for the shipment to be delivered to FedEx Express. Later it was discovered Ground Drivers made snide remarks about shipping hear as well.
The order was placed for the equipment to be picked up on Tuesday November 17, and I waited all day, and no one showed up. I called in around 6:00 PM to be informed they would not come until next day.
On Wednesday the driver finally showed up with no help, no dolly and attempted to move my equipment from my home office to his personal vehicle as advised by one of my neighbors who was helping me. Rather than having my equipment damaged my neighbor retrieved my personal dolly from the garage and then returned when driver finished loading. All cartons were labeled and ready to go when driver arrived.
I contacted again and requested a second shipment on Thursday and this time they sent two drivers who proceeded to take boxes at random rather than what was marked for shipment. They were unprofessional and very rude.
After shipping my equipment the trouble began firs there is a box stolen from my shipment containing valued electronic equipment and then there was destruction of CCR TV used by me and my staff who are all blind. We submitted a claim for damaged goods and was insulted again by James who works at the local office stating that FedEx would not honor a damage claim from my business.
I am refusing to pay for delivery until they replace all my damaged goods, make the invoices correct and cease attempting to charge me with service I did not order.
They are attempting to charge me with Call Tags never requested.
They are charging return charges that never occurred
And then there is the damage of more than $5,000 of which they have made a trivial payment in the amount of $400.
I will be cancelling service with this company after 20+ years and will use the competition as I refused to be abused and subjected to predatory practices because I am blind.
As a business owner and shipper it is my choice where to have products delivered business to business not Federal Express Ground.
It is my right to file claims for damaged goods due to poor handling of clearly marked goods.
It is my right to receive quality service and performance as a blind person just as if I were sighted. It is time business stop attempting to take advantage of visually impaired business owners.
Seems strange they would lie to public "FedEx is committed to providing outstanding customer experience, to being a great place to work, a thoughtful steward of the environment and a caring citizen in the communities where we live and work. At FedEx, we are passionate about sustainably connecting people and places and improving the quality of life around the world:". This quote is from their website. How can it possibly be true if this type of customer treatment is to be allowed.

I'm not a lawyer, but wouldn't "taking advantage of a visually impaired business owner" violate some sort of Federal law? If it is, you might want to be checking with an attorney on this.
PepperElf on 03/28/2010:
I'm not sure if there's a specific law pertaining to *that* - although there is obviously a moral law about it. Though there are probably laws pertaining taking advantage of any customer.
The best source for legal answers however would be to review the American Disabilities Act - http://www.ada.gov/ - or to contact the American Disabilities Association - http://184.108.40.206/

Lazy Delivery Drivers LIE about attempted deliveries
Posted by
On 10/5/09, I was waiting for my "Guaranteed" delivery from a supplier whom we do business with on a monthly basis. My shipment came in two parts, one from UPS, the other from FedEx Ground. I asked my supplier not to use FedEx because they had lied the last time, claiming "attempted delivery, customer unavailable". I explained this to their "manager on duty" who told me this simply could not happen. I advised him to stop smoking whatever it was, and it COULD happen because I was sitting on my front porch waiting for the truck when the tracking website claimed they were at the door!
My supplier advised me that to receive my order by the deadline, FedEx was their only option from the origination point.
Well, today I heard the doorbell ring and there was UPS with half of my order. I signed his electronic pad at 4:20pm and set the large box just inside. As the UPS driver started his truck I saw a FedEx truck go down the street slowly. My wife went to call our supplier who said both boxes would be delivered today. I got a sinking feeling in my gut and went immediately to the computer to check the tracking. Sure enough, they had been to my house again! This time with at 4:21pm when he "attempted delivery". The UPS driver was still there (I signed his pad at 4:20), my wife was on the phone with our supplier at that moment, and I was standing out front apparently looking at a FedEx truck with stealth technology. I even told FedEx this when I called. They said we were the driver's last stop (really?) and he was in route back to the distribution center. I reminded them that only 10 minutes had passed! How for could he be! Hutchins, TX is an hour drive from my house. The only reply was "We can't MAKE him go back, Sir. You can come pick it up tonight after 8:00pm or we'll reschedule delivery for tomorrow sometime." So people out there in consumer America, here's my choices; I get to drive an hour each way to collect my shipment tonight (because they CAN MAKE me drive there), or I can wait until tomorrow and pay my employees a day's pay to sit and wait (and pray) the FedEx phantom driver comes.
They've gone too far folks. They can get away with this disgusting and dishonest behavior because we allow it. Do yourself and others a favor. Please tell your friends, family, bosses, co-workers, stores you shop in, and especially websites you buy from not to use this horrible company that couldn't care less if WE are victimized! FedEx Ground Sucks, plain and simple.

I haven't personally had an issue with Fedex deliveries but from what I've read on this site a lot of folks do.
Eloise on 10/05/2009:
I've had this problem with both Fedex and UPS. They can't be bothered to get their rear end out of the truck and haul their rears up my porch. It is very frustrating that you pay a premium for a service that doesn't deliver! Hope your supplier will send UPS from now on. Or give UPSP a try.
Anonymous on 10/06/2009:
Wait...You saw the Fedex guy driving slowly down your street (probably looking for your address) and let him keep going so you can complain about it? I would have been motioning to him. How well can your address be read from the road? Do you have a long driveway? Do you have dogs in the yard?
I simply can't believe you watched him drive slowly down your street and you did nothing to get his attention. If he was driving fast I can see the FedEx guy being a moron. But a dude planning to skip out on the last job of the day doesn't drive slowly down the dang road in front of your house.
klobbersaurus685 on 10/06/2009:
I refuse to use Fedex for any of my shipping. I had a very similar experience with a driver just not stopping, and I even attempted to chase him down.
Fedex was no help and I had to wait and additional 2 days to have the package delivered. Delivered to my neighbors when the address was correct on the package.

Fedex Sucks... Flat Out Sucks
Posted by
SHARON, PENNSYLVANIA -- It all began when I ordered a laptop from Dell. Mind you, this was a month or so ago. I got the email that it had shipped, so I was excited. When I tried the tracking number it gave me an error that said invalid tracking number or something. So I called Dell to see what was up and they gave me the correct number. I thought all was well until it just sat there. After a few days I called FedEx to see what was going on and I was told that they couldn't find the package. This made me mad... I ended up being bounced back to Dell, they claimed Dell never sent the package, but Dell said they did so I gave up for the day. A few days after this I woke up and had a nagging feeling so I went outside to look around and there it was MY NEW LAPTOP covered in snow on my NEIGHBORS porch! We don't live in the greatest neighborhood so I was none to pleased about this because I was told it required a signature. It was over though, I had my laptop until it broke. Dell sent a box and I thought all was well, but it never came. Then my neighbor pounds on my door and asked if the box was mine.
It was blowing around in the yard because they left it on their porch once again. I got my box, at least. Packed my laptop up called to schedule a pickup. Thought all was well, man was I wrong. I was told that they can't schedule pickups past 3 in my area and they would be here to pick it up at 12:30. 12:30 rolls around, then 1,2... I called and asked where they were and was met by a woman who said the representative I spoke to yesterday messed up, they can't schedule ground pickups and that it showed they were here at 12:47. I said they weren't what's the address and of course I was met with the wrong street! I lost it on the lady, and she agreed with everything I said. She said I could wait till Monday, or drop it off at a FedEx in my area. Well we have none in my area. So I told her that was not an option, they made all the mistakes they can come pick it up TODAY.
Just 5 minutes ago they came to pick it up. I guess every so often it pays to air your opinion. Now I'm waiting to see what happens when my laptop returns, oh the fun that is to be had... Use UPS or USPS don't waste your time on these clowns!
I got my laptop back today and the delivery guy was very apologetic for what happened. He said they got A LOT of complaints about the other guy and they switched his route or something. I'm still not going to use them, unless I absolutely have to. I'm just glad I didn't have to pull teeth to get a simple thing done.
The End ;-)

I would be livid. Getting the wrong address once I would right off as a simple mistake, driver not paying attention to the house numbers. But having them deliver the box again to the wrong address and then try to pick up the box on the wrong street shows complete incompetence. I'm glad they eventually did work things out and make it right, and hopefully when you get your laptop back it will be delivered to the correct address. Good post. :)

Ghost deliveries
Posted by
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS -- It's good to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with fed-ex ground delivery service.What amazes me most is fed-ex continues to let the drivers get away with it.Not all fed-ex drivers are bad,just the ones I've dealt with lately.And it's true about some of the post that said when they tracked their packages on fed-ex's web site they get the read out of a package estimate delivery date only to find out later that the message has been up-dated to:delivery exception,customer unavailable or business closed.Having personally experienced this a number of times myself an with the driver not leaving any form indicating he/she was here.
The way I see it is the problem is three folds.
2.Poor business Management
3.lack of communication
Allow me to explain....Accountability...No one is held accountable as far as I can tell for repeated mistakes by fed-ex drivers.
poor business management....Fed-ex sub leases some of it's deliverers to independent drivers saving fed-ex money but causing some customers aggravation in the form of drivers who don't know their routes and rather than admit it,they simply say the customer was unavailable and the fed-ex facility having no way to verify the driver attempted a delivery,simply assume the delivery was made.
Lack of communications...Once a customer calls fed-ex and inquires about their package/s they are told it is out on the truck for delivery.
P.S. you never get the facility the driver works out of, just the 800 main facility.
The agent politely tells you 'We have no way of contacting the driver once the driver leaves the station,however we will call the station the driver works out of and leave a message and someone will call you back later to inform you of status of your package.My experience has been a hit and miss scenario...mostly miss.I.ve called fed-ex and e-mailed them to suggest they put some form of communication in the truck with the drivers so the station the driver works out of can contact the driver on a moments notice to avoid problems such as these in the future.It doesn't have to be anything elaborate or fancy..A cell phone with a direct link to the station and driver could do just as well.When the suggestion was made, you can imagine the response I got.It's safe to say it won't be happening anytime soon.Granted I don't live in the best of neighborhoods, but fed-ex is in the delivery business and the drivers it hires knows this as well,plus the fact that...And I've seen this for myself,some drivers will drive by a place of delivery and see a bunch of people hanging outside and decide right then and there they're not going to make the delivery.
As a fed-ex driver you know that you might have to make deliveries anywhere and everywhere your assigned route.In all fairness to the drivers however I also concede that sometimes circumstances beyond the drivers control can account for packages being late or damaged,but when the offense is repeated over 3/4 the time,at the same address,
Rather that lie and say the business was closed or customer was unavailable, just tell the truth...Some of you was to scared to make that particular delivery.Because I'm handicapped, I do a lot of shopping online and don't need the aggravation of wondering if my packages might get delivered.Add to the fact that there are 3 adults here and there is always an adult here to receive my packages, then there is no reason I should have to go through these changes just to get a package.Like most delivery companies fed-ex offer pick up option...You or your agent can pick up your package/s at a fed-ex facility.That's not a viable option...When you pay for shipping and handling for a package, you expect it to be delivered to your door(not you have to pick it up at a fed-ex facility...(if you do pick up your package/s from any delivery service, will they reimburse you for shipping)?
Ha! Ha! What a joke.
Anyway,thanks for letting me get this off my chest,the problem is still there but I feel much better knowing that there are others out there like me who understand the frustration of having to deal with a company that seems to not care about it,s customer,s.

You might try the US Postal Service if FedEx ground isn't working out. As far as phones in the trucks, FedEx wants these drivers out slinging packages instead of taking calls about an ETA for someone's Ginzu knife set from HSN. As far as delivering to a potentially dangerous location, the driver is responsible not just for one package, but the entire truck's worth of packages. The USPS doesn't have that luxury, so try them next time.
nodlew on 06/15/2006:
I might add my 3cents lol I think the united parcel service is much better.compaired to fed express but once a united parcel service delivered me a package...he said he was carring yesterdays not delivered items, plus that days package wow the time was nearly 4 pm so he had to return back loaded. wasn't his fault of course......I am sure they are doing a better job than I could do....I thought the us postal service were limited as to how large item they could deliver.....however their service is great just as good as United Parcel Service ...seems to me the factory or store where the item is shipped from chooses the carrier for deliver !!
Gunchief25 on 02/03/2009:
I had close to the same experience today with Fedex. A package was to be delivered to my home yesterday. I watched a FedEx truck slow down as if he was going to turn into my driveway but he moved on.
Today I received the "Delivery Exception" Email saying incorrect address.
I called the customer service number and was told that the driver had found a mailbox with my address on it but not the right name (Myself and My Mother inlaw use the same mail box and in all honosty had he read further it has both our names on it. Instead of stopping to ask someone nearby if they knew where I live (everyone here knows me it is Family Property) He just drove on and didn't bother delivering.
I stopped at the office that the driver delivers from today and got pretty much the same runaround. So I pulled out of my pocket a printed Google Earth Map of where the driver had found my mail box and showed exactly how close he was to my home and didn't even bother to make an attempt to find it.
As a matter of fact as the driver was passing my driveway a UPS driver who was also delivering a package to me turned directly into my driveway and delivered another package that I was expecting.
In My opinion Fedex driver could not find their way acrossed the street with a GPS, a map, and a compass!
I am so glad to know I am not the only one who hads had problems with them. Any time any Vendor has ever used Fedex to ship anything to me they always get lost, UPS comes right to my door.
Gunchief25 on 02/04/2009:
In reply to Hugh Jorgen's comment. When you place an order with a company for a product you don't get a choice as to what Service they used to ship your package. If "Joe Company owner" uses Fedex that is what you get stuck with. You cannot just say "Hey by the way I want this sent Via U.S. Postal service" It doesn't work that way.
By the way, Not only do the drivers have phones in their trucks but they are also equipped to receive email messages. While standing in the Local Fedex facility yesterday the dispatcher sent 3 email messages to the driver via computer and received replies from him.

Fed Ex Admits they Damaged Item but Refuses to Pay Cllaim
Posted by
HILLSBORO, OREGON -- We just recently signed up online and on the phone with Fed Ex for a business account to ship our merchandise via fed ex. We were asked lots of questions when we signed up but were never informed that Fed Ex has a policy of NOT paying for anything breakable shipped through them. We shipped a $700 framed print (not behind glass) and the customer complained that the frame was broken. We had Fed Ex schedule an examination of the item and then they repackaged it and sent it back to us. They sent us a letter saying there was "no visible damage" to the item. When the package was returned to us even the delivery person admitted that it looked like it had cartwheeled down the highway it was in such bad shape. Fed Ex did not rewrap the print in its original packaging or put the peanuts back in the box - they simply dropped this large framed print in the box - put two piece of tape on the lid and shipped it back. One whole corner of the box was missing when it got back to us and the frame was completely demolished having broken off in all Four Corners and chunks of the frame was missing. When we complained to Fed Ex they ADMITTED that they were responsible for the damage but refused to pay the claim since it was considered "art" and they will not pay to replace "art". We were never informed of their policy and when they did send us a copy of their policy it states that they do not pay claims ON PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING you can imagine - the list was a mile long. So Fed Ex CHARGES you to buy extra insurance to cover your item and then refuses to pay the claim based on this "hidden" policy which makes it possible for them to get out of paying a claim for any item you ship with them. They offer to pay a maximum of $100 but that will not even replace the cost of the frame so I'm out $700 and the Fed Ex people just rip people off selling them "insurance" when they know they don't have to pay for any claims submitted. They readily admit damage but then turn around and refuse to pay for the damage. I will NEVER use Fed Ex again and intend to make as much noise about this as possible. Fed Ex petitions people for their business but never tells them that they will be charging them for insurance that they will not pay - they have quite a racket going for them. Can you imagine the millions of dollars Fed Ex collects in "insurance" and then they refuse to pay claims. SHAME ON FED EX - their company should be shut down for mail fraud! I have pictures and have documented everything so if anyone wants to know more just let me know. I intend to notify every newspaper across the United States and every business about their scam. Go with UPS - they honor their insurance claims.

I would just about be willing to bet you did not take out extra insurance for this item. In the fine print of most shipping companies there is a disclaimer that they are liable up to a certain $$ value unless additional insurance is taken out.

Know exactly what you mean. Sometimes I'll quickly go through latest posts and find something where a new member is probably searching for a specific company/product, pops a quick comment in, and I take it as a new item. Glad I'm not the only one. :)

text: Commitment to the Environment As a Catholic, Jesuit college, Le Moyne promotes academic excellence and leadership, in service for and with others. Responsible environmental stewardship flows from this understanding of our role. We seek to be conscientious global citizens by: Reducing the rate at which we contribute to depletion of natural resources and degradation of the environment, and; Increasing our use of renewable resources. Environmental sustainability at Le Moyne College is advanced through: the College Committee for Environmental Sustainability, comprised of faculty, staff and students from across the College; all operations including the Department of Facilities Maintenance and Planning and Dining Services; academic research and scholarship across disciplines, with a special focus by the Center for the Study of Environmental Change and the Center for Urban and Regional Applied Research. The bottom line: Le Moyne College 2010 carbon emissions = 11,477 MTeCO2/gsf Our organizational goals are to: Continue raising community awareness of environmental issues through lectures, research, academic programming, and cultural events; Enhance campus-wide recycling and other eco-friendly action; Develop a campus-wide sustainability plan that incorporates green procurement and other steps, ultimately moving us toward restorative and regenerative design; Expand our collaborations and projects in Central New York and beyond. Le Moyne has reduced its GHG emissions every year since 2003. During 2011, we will seek to expand upon our successful pilot of 200 LED (light-emitting diode) bulbs. In 2009, we were among the first in the nation to test this maturing technology for indoor lighting, and were featured in the Chronicle of Higher Education. We now we seek to "Light the Heights" by expanding this project across the campus. For more information, please contact Steve Kulick (firstname.lastname@example.com). In addition to environmental sustainability, Le Moyne addresses the other two components of sustainability (economic and social) through our daily operations, college mission and OneLeMoyne Strategic Vision.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) - The Dalai Lama's visit to Charlottesville in October is having a lasting impact.
Organizers tell the Daily Progress ( http://bit.ly/Z3M7Dj) the appearances generated about $95,000 for local charities. The Oct. 11 visit generated $380,000 in revenue, with most of that coming from ticket sales.
The costs associated with the two appearances were about $143,000, which left a profit of about $237,000.
Organizers said the Tibetan spiritual leader does not make a personal profit from his speeches.
Some $95,000 will go the Dalai Lama Trust for other charitable causes, while about $47,000 will go to the Central Tibetan Administration. It is the exiled political organization working toward a free Tibet.

Fluorometholone Ophthalmic Dosage
In This Section:
How should I take Fluorometholone Ophthalmic?
Follow all directions on your prescription label. Do not use this medicine in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.
Do not use this medication while wearing contact lenses. Fluorometholone ophthalmic may contain a preservative that can discolor soft contact lenses. Wait at least 15 minutes after using this medicine before putting in your contact lenses.
Wash your hands before using eye medication.
Shake the eye drops well just before each use.
To apply the eye drops:
- Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket. Hold the dropper above the eye with the tip down. Look up and away from the dropper and squeeze out a drop
- Close your eyes for 2 or 3 minutes with your head tipped down, without blinking or squinting. Gently press your finger to the inside corner of the eye for about 1 minute, to keep the liquid from draining into your tear duct
- Use only the number of drops your doctor has prescribed. If you use more than one drop, wait about 5 minutes between drops
- Wait at least 10 minutes before using any other eye drops your doctor has prescribed
Do not use the eye drops if the liquid has changed colors or has particles in it. Call your pharmacist for new medicine.
To apply the ointment:
- Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket. Hold the ointment tube with the tip pointing toward this pocket. Look up and away from the tip
- Squeeze out a ribbon of ointment into the lower eyelid pocket without touching the tip of the tube to your eye. Blink your eye gently and then keep it closed for 1 or 2 minutes
- Use a tissue to wipe excess ointment from your eyelashes
- After opening your eyes, you may have blurred vision for a short time. Avoid driving or doing anything that requires you to be able to see clearly
Do not touch the tip of the eye dropper or ointment tube or place it directly on your eye. A contaminated applicator tip can infect your eye, which could lead to serious vision problems.
Call your doctor if your symptoms do not improve after 2 days of treatment with fluorometholone ophthalmic.
If you use fluorometholone ophthalmic for 10 days or longer, you may need frequent eye tests at your doctor's office.
Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Do not freeze. Keep the tube or bottle tightly closed when not in use.
Store eye drops with the bottle upright. Throw away any unused eyedrops 4 weeks after opening the bottle.Back to Top
What happens if I overdose on Fluorometholone Ophthalmic?
An overdose of fluorometholone ophthalmic is not expected to be dangerous. Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222 if anyone has accidentally swallowed the medication.Back to Top
What happens if I miss a dose of Fluorometholone Ophthalmic?

Stephanie Moore MBE set up the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK in 1993, following the death of her football world cup winning husband, Bobby Moore OBE, from bowel cancer. The Fund raises money to fund cutting edge bowel cancer research, and also raises awareness of the high-risk symptoms of the disease. 44 men and women die from bowel cancer each day in the UK, but if diagnosed early enough, more than 9 out of 10 cases are treatable. Thank you for helping us tackle bowel cancer.

Questions and Answers
Look at that name ð??? Dec 8, 2014
I'm 27 but love this line. I get compliments often on how smooth and healthy my skin looks. Dec 2, 2014
I have read and studied the benefits and the good that Youth Liberator Serum Foundation does for one's skin. Also, it gives the coverage I need for those little irritating flaws. Sep 25, 2013
I don't want a cakey Fondation a nice one that helps my 40 year old dry skin glow will this help? Dec 13, 2014
Your Bobbi Brown shade correlates to 2Y04. Beige 30 is 5Y05, so a little more yellow and one shade too dark. Sephora doesn't carry beige 20, so I'm not sure the exact number, but they have beige rose, a more pink undertone, is 1R03. I'm not sure what Y beige 20 will be as it doesn't correlate as directly as the shade does, but the darkness should be 03. So if your Bobbi brown leans too light I would go with beige 30, or leans toward too dark, I would go with beige 20.
Hope this helps! Dec 17, 2013
I ues No.2 Touche Eclat, And I bought Beige30 SERUM FOUNDATION, but it's light for me, so maybe this colour is good for you. Dec 11, 2013
But I really do not know which will be your best color?
Sorry about that?
But you can go to Nordstrom to ask for some sample to try?or ask help from BA. And I did that.It helps a lot?
Hoping my answer works for your queation.
Jan 12, 2014
Will this help? Dec 13, 2014
I am using Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation in Sand. What color would you recommend to me? In summer, (I use YSL Touche éclat B30. but I am paler in the winter time.) Dec 5, 2013
I am not sure about Dior Forever in that shade, 021 Linen,because I haven't used that specific foundation, myself, but it sounds like it may be B20, since Linen is usually very fair towards the yellow/olive side. I bought B20, but should have bought B30, since I am a little darker/warmer than what I expect "Linen" to look like.
I just mix it with the other Dior foundation I have "Eclat Touche B30" and it's perfect! Sep 30, 2013
I am also very fair (in any brand, I use the lightest color in foundations), and for Youth Liberator Foundation and Touche Eclat foundation, I use a mixture of B10 and BR20 (because BR10 isn't available, although that would be my ideal shade--only Nordstrom has it, I recently discovered).
I am slightly on the pinky undertone side, so I use slightly heavier BR20 color than B10. The B range is yellower than BR. You mentioned that you have yellow undertone, so I'd say go for B10 or B20, depending on the depth of shade your skin is. But that's just a guess because I haven't seen your skin in person, but hopefully this provides some reference point. Apr 21, 2014
Melissa Aug 29, 2014
2) best for which skin type?
3) how would i go on choosing the color for my skin tone since there is not local counter near where I live. Meaning the only way is to order online.
(I am asian skin- have undertone of yellow in the middle, not too much yellow and not too little yellow, just in between with the yellow. I was matched with color of MAC in NC25 - NC30 depending on the season, in Estee Lauder I wear Dawn. Sometimes depending on the specialist who swatched me say i'm neutral, some say i'm warm, even one said i was cool.. I'm confused with which undertone, guess it may be the lighting) But i do wear those other shades and matched, so if someone can suggest me the shades that would be great! thanks- Oct 26, 2013
2) I would say dry as there is the Youth Liberator skincare embedded within the foundation, nourishing the skin.
3) for shades, if you have the Le Teint Touche Eclat, you're probably the same shade for this foundation too. In store, the colour selection is wider for this foundation, though I don't know why. I wear the shade BD10, when the only Beige Dore colour is BD50. Nov 12, 2013

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

The Volt's design incorporates a wider whale tail section with a broader nose. This allows the rider to move back on the saddle to bear down on the pedals and to sit on the nose more comfortably when sliding to the front of the saddle. The love channel and comfort zone help alleviate unwanted pressure during the ride. The Race version features cromoly rails and a synthetic covers.

Have owned both the WTB Silverado and the WTB Rocket V, and I would put the Volt in-between those two. Medium amount of cushion and the size seems like a great mix of the two as well as far as shape goes.
The "comfort zone" seems to make saddles by WTB my favorite.

In the film 'Tropic Thunder' why does the Aum symbol appear behind the character played by Tom Cruise?
This isn't a minor point and I don't think it's nit-picking. Yes, I know Buddhists don't have 'ownership' of this ancient symbol BUT it is associated with us (and Hindus, and Jains and other eastern religions). In this film, the character played by Tom Cruise is an angry, self-centred/egocentric, money-obsessed, materialistic bully --- completely AGAINST what the Aum symbol represents! And yet, very clearly, he has a giant Aum symbol in his office. I have a theory about why this is, but it might be a bit... far fetched.
I understand Tom Cruise had a lot of flexibility with his character (for example, he chose the giant hands, the script was never written for him (he improvised), all his mannerisms and his dance moves were all his own creation). It may well be that he also choose to display the Aum symbol. The question is, why? What was his motivation?
Let's cut through the cheese here, Tom Cruise is a Scientologist and there is a known history of this dangerous sect trying to corrupt the typical westerner's mind about eastern thought. Take, for example, 'My name is Earl'. The concept of Karma portrayed in this sitcom is WILDLY corrupted and, although Scientologists don't use the word 'Karma' themselves, fits more with the Scientology philosophy of morality. 'My name is Earl' was written by Scientologists and stars Scientologist actors. Unfortunately, many people I have spoken to believe (or did believe before I corrected them) that the Scientology 'version' of 'Karma' was actually what Buddhists believe!
... could it be that in this film, the Aum symbol was deliberately chosen so that subconsciously people would associate it with the sorts of charactistics displayed by Tom Cruise's character?
Now consider this... if a crescent moon (or, more specifically, the Islam symbol) or a pictorial representation of the Prophet Mohammed (sp?) had been used there would be OUTCRY. The Islamic world would not stand for it.... you would see effigies burning and riots in the streets. So, why should we allow this PEACEFUL symbol (the Aum symbol) to be associated with corruption!?
Is protesting against the principal of non-violence? What should we do?
Am I simply reading too much into this?
