Lying, Cheating, Idiot, Negligent Movers

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA -- On August 30th, 2012, I employed Starving Students Movers to help me move my possessions from an apartment to my newly purchased condominium, only six miles away. Starving Students Movers promised the following guarantee when I hired them:
1. Two strong, professional men would be sent;
2. A moving truck large enough to accommodate a 4 bedroom, 2000 square foot home would be provided;
3. Furniture pads would be provided free of cost to ensure protection of my large pieces of furniture;
4. The rate would be $84.99/hour, with a 2-hour minimum, plus 22% added to the total;
5. Driving time in Los Angeles is doubled (i. e., if it takes fifteen minutes to drive from location to location, the amount of time would total thirty minutes);
6. A guarantee that no additional or hidden charges would be incurred in the price; and
7. My possessions would be cared for with the utmost respect.
However, these are not the results we received from Starving Students Movers.
Following is a list of our complaints with regards to the two charges:
1. One man took two fifteen-minute "restroom" breaks in the middle of the day;
2. The other man constantly kept making inappropriate advances on my girlfriend and making her feel totally uncomfortable and it was completely unprofessional;
3. Neither man brought any water or water bottle to drink from on a sweltering hot day in Los Angeles, to which I spent over $40 for several bottles of water and Gatorade for them for fear that they would collapse otherwise;
4. I opted to hire a third man to help with the unload at the condo but he stopped working 45 minutes before the job was done;
5. One man sat in his truck for over 30 minutes hand-calculating my total while only one man finished the job;
6. The truck did not accommodate all of the property within our apartment, which was only 1,200 square feet and included no large appliances such as a washer/dryer, dishwasher or refrigerator. We had to rent a U-Haul truck the next day in order to finish our move, which included 2 dressers, 10 boxes, 1 vanity, plants, a sofa and a desk with a hutch as well as lamps and a few chairs;
7. Furniture pads were not offered. Instead, I was told by the two men that if I wanted my furniture protected I had to spend $29.99 to buy industrial plastic wrap and have each individual piece of furniture wrapped by them. This added an exorbitant amount of time to the overall move;
8. The rate was calculated at $89.99/hour instead of $84.99/hour which is what I was quoted;
9. In addition to the rate discrepancy and the $29.99 charge for the industrial plastic wrap, I was also charged three additional "hidden" fees: $18.40 for mattress bags, $3.00 for tape and a PUC fee (of which I am not sure it is) for $5.83;
10. During the unload, boxes that had clearly been labeled "FRAGILE," "CHINA" or "CRYSTAL," etc. were turned upside down and very carelessly placed about;
11. Boxes were crushed;
12. Furniture had scrapes and scratches that went right through the industrial saran wrap;
13. Boxes and items were tossed carelessly throughout two rooms and I was told that if I wanted the movers to put the boxes in the rooms as they were labeled, I would be charged additional;
14. Once the truck was fully unloaded, I saw a stack of furniture pads that extended from floor to ceiling that were never utilized for the protection of my furniture;
15. In the end, I was told my balance due was $565.08 but 45 minutes later (when the job was actually complete) was told that the balance was $622.35 because the "computer was now working and could accurately calculate the price";
16. The man who gave me my bill couldn't even verbalize a three-digit number, such at six-hundred-twenty-two-dollars-and-thirty-five cents. Instead, he had to say the amount digit-by-digit in order try to explain my balance to me.
I called Starving Students Movers the very next day, August 31st, to complain about the service I was given. I was sent to a voice mail of a woman in claims who has never called me back. That same night I decided to call Discover to question the charge and find what kind of protection I had. Since then, I have tried calling back to Starving Students Movers to get the "complaint department" on the phone but to no avail. I feel I have been completely taken advantage of and have no form of recourse. No one answers the phone, you can't get past the local LA complaints department to get to corporate and no one cares.
I received an email today that offered me $80 off of my bill. However, they accept ZERO liability for ANYTHING I mentioned in the above letter. LIARS, CHEATERS, IDIOTS!!!!!

At Your Service on 01/05/2013:
Hi Tara. I appreciate what seems to be a great deal of frustration. Did you have any of the quotes, in writing, which shows differences from your final itemized bill?
Also, you mention "scrapes" incurred on some furniture. Did you document any of this by taking photographs?
According to your price quote, the amount you agreed to pay was $84.99/HR plus 22% added to the total. With respect, wouldn't it be agreed that more direct way of saying this would be $103.69/HR? In addition, driving time in LA would then be doubled.
If I'm not mistaken, that puts the entire job somewhere around five hours give or take. With respect, that sounds like a rather reasonable amount of time to properly load, deliver and unload a truck.
My biggest concern would be any damage anything may have had, but that seems extremely secondary to your overall complaint. Am I correct in understanding that the main portion of your complaint is what you were charged compared to what you thought the delivery was going to cost? What was the amount you thought you were going to be out?

Sounds like you have a very strong case if you were to sue them in small claims court.

Terrible Service, Belligerent Movers, Way Overcharged
Posted by
I have moved 14 times in my life and have used every kind of service, from Allied Vans, to day laborers never without a problem, until now. Here is my experience with Starving Students.
I acquired their services in May 2007. It was a nightmarish day. The movers were moving an already boxed and packed 1 bedroom condo from a ground floor self storage unit, 5 miles away to a 2nd floor 625sqft 1 bedroom condo. Previous moving company using 2 people took under 4 hours for the entire move. Day started with Starving Students calling and asking if I would like an extra mover for a total of 3. I said why not. They did not disclose how much more I would be paying over the phone for the added 3rd mover. The movers came and right away it seemed these movers were going to go as slow as humanly possible.
The movers at different times of the day would just stand and watch 1 worker, talk on their cell phone, smoke, walk so slow as to drag their feet. I understand that movers need to take breaks, but these guys goofed off constantly. After 2 hours into it, I saw that at this pace it would not complete as I needed to be out of my storage unit that day. I asked one of the movers very nicely if he could move faster cause I was paying by the hour. He said, I'm not his boss. I said, I am a paying customer. He was dismissive and said he doesn't need to be doing this. I said, if you don't want to do this, tell your head mover and they can work and get paid. After that, all 3 of the movers ignored me. They were here to have a good time, not work. I was amazed. One of my cabinets had items in it. they said it needed to be boxed.
I asked 3 times repeatedly for some boxes so I could box the few items since they were not doing it, and was ignored each time. The movers had brought a semi. They only managed to get half of the items from the storage unit. Not because there was a lot of stuff, but because they did such an inefficient job packing the semi. I've moved a 3 bedroom house in a semi, they can surely do a 1 bedroom condo. I had moved everything before with a much smaller U-Haul. The movers continued to work slowly so I started moving stuff myself.
Note, I had had carpal tunnel surgery less than 2 months prior so my wrist was in a weakened condition.
I was nice to these movers the entire time, never used epithets, and even bought them lunch. After the movers completed unloading the truck, they told me they would not be going back and would have to schedule another move and then gave me a bill of $1100 for half of a 1 bedroom condo in 6.5 hours. I couldn't believe how ridiculous cost this was for such a poor job performance. I had paid them an initial deposit. I told them I would not be paying the balance.
It is at this point where things got really ugly with these movers. The head mover suddenly became very belligerent with me. He started yelling at me with epithets, mother $%^$, you don't pay us, we don't get paid. Staying calm, I told them my dispute would be with management. He continued his rant, calling me a rainbow collision mother #$%$, a bigoted term because of my sexual orientation. He continued yelling and got into my face. At this point I was getting scared. I told him he would need to take it up with his boss. He continued yelling and said he was going to go up and repossess my sh*t and at that point I said, I'm leaving now, and ran back up to my condo and locked the door. The head mover ran up behind me. He stuffed the receipt in my screen door, ripped in two.
After I had stopped shaking, I called customer service at Starving Students and explained what happened. Customer service was very nice. He gave me the information for the manager. I later spoke with the manager and explained what happened. He said they would investigate. I wrote 2 letters to the company explaining what happened. I received another call from a higher up manager stating that he would look into what happened. After that last phone conversation, I didn't hear anything back in form of written nor voice. I assumed the matter dropped and was going to try to forget about that awful day.
In the move they did break a crystal vase I had which I did not bother reporting after feeling shaken up by the incident. Following the move, my wrist and arm swelled and I went to the doctor. the doctor said I had pulled a tendon. I had exerted too much pressure on my forearm trying to compensate for my weakened wrist from surgery.
Fast forward to October 2008. I get a letter of bill due out of the blue. I couldn't believe I would get a notice over a year later. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. A few weeks later I received a phone call from the claims department. The lady, Melody Thompson, stated that I owed them the balance and had received the Better Business Bureau complaint. I stated what had happened. She apologized for how the movers acted but I still owed the balance. Her tone was somewhat apathetic. I explained to her that based on their work, it would have taken 13 hours to move a 1 bedroom condo, and if she thought that was fair for 3 movers, and myself assisting, for a 625sqft condo?? We went back and forth and I began to get upset and her tone become more patronizing. she told me that if I was afraid, hmmmmm, I should have filed a police report. I asked her why they are now contacting me over a year later. She said there was some accounting problem. She then said we aren't getting anywhere and was about to hang up on me and I said, who is your supervisor. She says, she doesn't have one. I then say, who is your manager, she says she doesn't have one. I say, you work for Starving Students right, you must report to someone. she refuses to say and tells me HA! All I'm thinking at this point does everyone suck at this company.
Well, I talked to my lawyer and they are sending out a letter to this company. A company performs poorly at a task and is given a chance to redeem themselves yet they continue the behavior. To me this is a sign it is company culture.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. They need their business license revoked. I am a full-time Realtor and will be doing everything I can so everyone knows, and every Realtor at my brokerage knows and refers to their clients, NOT to use their service.

It sounds like you had a bad experience, but a bad experience doesn't excuse you from paying the bill. Disputing it and then ignoring it doesn't make it go away.
And btw, yes, if you felt threatened in any way, you should have called the police immediately.
peteypete on 01/29/2009:
Hmm, this sounds exactly like the accountant that lied and said she didn't have a supervisor!
How about not paying a bill from a business that does not perform the work outlined and does not complete it?
Why would anyone pay a company that does not perform?
Sounds like you're a shill to me! And judging by the poor review after poor review, this is common practice by Starving Students, scamming their customers. You need your business license revoked.
Kagan on 04/13/2009:
I am with you peteypete. The behavior you describe is very consistent with what others (including myself) were exposed to. When you purchase a damaged good, you have a right to return. If you receive bad service, then you have a right to dispute the charges. Keep fighting. Thanks.

Theft, Damage and Calling Me a Liar
Posted by
SACRAMENTO, CA, CALIFORNIA -- The first day, these guys showed up at 2:30PM, when they were scheduled for 8:30AM. I was informed that I didn't have enough packed and they would come back the next day. These guys showed up on the second scheduled date at 6:00PM. They were supposed to be there at 9:30AM. We rescheduled for the next day when they hit me with added fees for PUC fees, Workman's Comp. fees, Double-Drive Time fees, Stretch Wrap fee, etc., that would add another 25% to my bill, which turned out to be way more than I ever expected. They went outside to take "cigar" breaks every hour or two. I later found out that it wasn't really a cigar.
One of the guys stole over $4000 worth of jewelry from me and a prescription for Oxycontin, I had from years ago. Claims (there is only one person who answers to no one) told me that it was ridiculous to think that their employees would smoke pot in front of a customer and that there was no evidence of a theft, despite a filed police report. She was rude in our email exchanges and essentially, called me a liar and refused to even investigate the matter. No wonder these guys can get away with this crap! She said that they had to be concerned with employee rights - What about my rights?!? This is in addition to damage to the moved property. I also had to hire another mover to complete the job that they simply quit on. Not only was I violated, but offended by their lack of concern or empathy. Not once did the claims person take any information or agree to look into the matter. Whatever you do, DO NOT USE THESE GUYS!!!

Don't use Starving Students! BEWARE!!

Mrs Ozzy
TEMPE, ARIZONA -- I had a HORRIFIC experience and I would caution ANYONE to stay far away!! I have used them before in the summer of 2007 and thought they did a fine job, and were very reasonably priced, so I tried again.
In my error, I left my wedding rings out on a shelf. It was a hectic day and I didn't realize until 3 hours into the move they'd been left on the shelf. By the time I got to the room where they were, of course, they were gone. The movers did not move that shelf. No boxes were shuffled around or packed/unpacked in that room. The only people in my house that day were the movers, my mother, my husband, and me. When I questioned the movers, naturally, they denied fault. I filed a police report and contacted the claims department.
OK so I understand it's my word vs. theirs. I understand I have no proof. What I don't understand is how Melanie, the corporate claims adjuster, still has a job. She was absolutely rude over the phone. Raised her voice and told me to "stop accusing" her workers because I was offending her (EXCUSE ME?), and hung up on me! But the best part is that when I asked her if she had contacted the local Tempe branch (where my move was scheduled out of) to question the manager/movers she said no and that she hadn't planned to. What if this is a pattern of behavior from these men? They would never know because no one follows up on anything! Of COURSE they are going to steal my 2.5 karats worth of jewelry, they know they can get away with it because no one at this company trusts the customer or even cares that I am now missing jewelry that is completely priceless to me. What if my DVD player hadn't made it to my new house? Would I just have to go buy a new one? I think it is ludicrous to offer a service to a customer and blatantly refuse to follow up on problems. These people are thieves. They are rude and unhelpful. They are absolute cheats.
Pay the extra money and use a company that won't steal your stuff. The $4700 worth of jewelry I lost sure wasn't worth my $750 move.

You say it was a hectic day, what if the items on the shelf were packed up and moved or the rings put inside something else? There's no real proof the movers took the rings, you said so yourself. I'm not sure what you wanted the claims lady to do, they can't pay for new rings because the old ones are now "missing".
Mrs Ozzy on 05/18/2010:
Obviously I realize that if there was packing/unpacking going on in the room where they were left there would be no proof that the movers took my jewelry. This is not the case. The room where the rings were was empty. There was no packing/unpacking going on. The shelf where the rings were sitting was not moved or disturbed. All that was moved out of the room was a mattress and TV stand that were on the other side of the room and wouldn't have disturbed the bookshelf. I realize that it is hard to prove anything without violating their rights and making them turn out their pockets.
If you read my complete review you can see that my main beef isn't with the fact that they didn't pay me for the rings, it is for the fact that they weren't even planning on looking into my complaint. They did not check with the local office or question the movers at all. If this is a pattern of behavior they would never know because they didn't look into my accusation AT ALL. That is my problem! These movers could be taking endless amounts of things, and because all claims are made through the corporate office, their dismissive attitude means no local follow through.

Terrible service
Posted by
I will never use this company again. My experience with them was terrible, and their customer service was nothing short of atrocious.
First of all, they arrived well outside the window. When they finally got there, they told me that my apartment was on the third floor so they wouldn't be able to make the move that day. I would think as a professional moving company, you would have all the details of the move before you showed up. In any case, I spent 45 minutes trying to convince them to carry out the scheduled move, which they finally agreed to do.
Three days later I receive a call from them saying that my deposit was declined, and threatened me with litigation and reporting me to a credit agency if they did not receive a payment from me within 10 days. All this on the first call, mind you. Subsequently, I made numerous frantic calls to try to resolve the issue, which all went unanswered. About 5 hours later, I received a voicemail from an associate telling to disregard the message, because it was an error on their part!
The next day, I realized that my Discover Card ( on which I made the deposit payment) had been charged the full amount of the move, IN ADDITION to my Visa card, from which they had already debited the move amount.
Needless to say, I'm infuriated and frustrated with them. They are terrible

Horrible, Unskilled Workers, Deliberately Scamming Customers, Worst Company Ever!
Posted by
After considering several companies, we decided to go with Starving Students because the clerk I talked to sounded quite professional and prices were quite reasonable. So moving day comes, and they are supposed to be at our apartment at 8 AM--the guy said it will be more like 7.30. Great... 8 AM comes and goes. I call them and the guy tells me a smaller job came up and they will handle it first and then come do our place. So by the time they show up, it's 1.30 PM! The two fellas looked like neither professional movers nor skilled workers. And the whole move for a 2-bedroom apartment took 7 hours excluding the road! Some of our furniture was damaged, and some of it damaged the floor of our new place while they were moving stuff around. I never felt this scammed in my life! It is obvious that they deliberately were slowing down their work in order to charge us more. So for a move of about 5 miles distance, we paid close to $750 dollars! And one more thing: The moment one of the guys saw our new place (which is a quite nice apartment) he practically started yelling at us for some superficial reason. He was simply jealous! I couldn't believe it.
If you have any type of common sense, just don't let these people make a penny off of you. They are just a bunch of scam artists.

Don't Use Them, The Will Steal From You
Posted by
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA -- I used Starving Students for a move for 7 items that were too heavy to carry by myself, and it was only 2.5 miles.
The driver was hitting on me and telling me about all the sex he and his girlfriend had been having, which was really uncomfortable. He kept mentioning his tip. I did everything like tie the doors and such.
Then at the end, they overcharged me. I caught the mistake and they argued at first and then agreed, then put through the faulty amount anyhow.
I have been fighting for two weeks to get my money back and had to make no less than 50 calls so far only to be given the run around by everyone I talk to. They don't care about people and the corporate office doesn't seem to care that they are ripping people off.
Stay away!

Rude, Careless Movers
Posted by
DALLAS, TEXAS -- Moving day came, and I expected the crew between 8 and 10 AM. They showed up at 6:30! Without much preamble, one of the movers ran around with a clip board, asking what was going and what was not, the other loaded several boxes I had already packed onto the dolly, then proceeded to curse all the way down the stairs! I'm not talking garden variety cursing here, we're going with G-D, M-F, etc... When I asked the clipboard-wielding foreman what the problem was, he stated the boxes were too heavy and carrying them down 3 flights of stairs was just too much! (the company had no specific weight guidelines for boxes).
The nightmare continues... When we got to my new apartment, they cursed again at having to carry everything up to the third floor, even though I had specified that when I hired them. Then came the parade of broken things: the handcrafted bookcase, the handcrafted credenza, the television, the brand new roll around duffel bag had holes in it... several boxes were (deliberately!) inverted - how can you mistake which side is up on a box labeled 'this side is up'? A lot of the things I had in the overturned boxes broke, like my jewelry box, dishes, etc. Then the most insulting: my two torchere lamps snapped at the base, and the mover/cusser chuckled as he lay them down on the floor and said 'these didn't make it!'
After putting up with their mouths and attitudes for 6 hours, they finally presented me with invoices, told me to sign here, here, and here, then they left. That was the first time I saw the inventory form, and I had to study it, because... in code, they described all my furniture as badly worn, scarred, old... basically crap! That evening, I made several trips to the old apartment, to load up things the movers did not load, like: the office chair, the support braces for the bookcase, the floor fan, boxes they said they had no room for on the truck...
Their customer service department is equally inadequate. I called them to complain, and only then found out I could file a claim for my damaged goods. However, the claim form is cumbersome, and demands pictures of the broken things before and after the move, and a copy of the inventory. From their instructions I found out that a review would then ensue, and that if the review panel deemed my claim had merit, I would be reimbursed for a portion of the value of my damaged goods.
If time had not been so pressing, I would have simply dismissed them when the first foul word tumbled from their mouth... but I do know I will never hire them to move me again!

My approach is getting family and friends to help with moving.
They may not be professional but they show up on time and work cheap (beers).
moneybags on 08/22/2007:
Anytime you hire someone to move you, take pictures before they arrive, as they are loading your stuff, when they unload and of anything broken in your new place. That is the best proof of condition and subsequent damages. Pictures are cheap insurance. P.S. Also take pictures when your move in to a new rental and after you are through cleaning/moving out. Apartment managers cannot dispute pictures and judges love them. (Don't foregt to clean the oven, under the stove burners, and the entire refrigerator including under veggie drawers.)

You were WAY TO NICE to them. I would have thrown them out as soon as I saw the attitudes. You have been ripped off, plain and simple. Starving Students Moving Company does not even use Starving Students! From what I read they hire ex felons, the homeless and anybody with a strong back that wants to work for next to nothing. Take them to small claims court, they may not show up and you win, if they do show up you still win!
Anonymous on 08/22/2007:
I disagreed.
Here is the catch 22.
The problem is that no moving company is available within last minutes.
If he/she rejects the moving company, he/she will need to rent a track and move him/herself.

krejados good review... These movers do not sound like the type of fellows I'd bring home to meet mother. Good luck and nail this scumbags if possible. I voted this 'Very Helpful'.

Happy, would rather postpone the move or do it myself than have to deal with a situation like the OP had to. Sometimes we just have to suck it up and move on even if it causes us a little extra time and work.

Agreed to a point.
Most people move when their rental agreement ends or their house's closing day.
This is why I move myself with help of family and friends.
Anonymous on 08/22/2007:
Sometimes there are no friends or family to help. I don't like to inconvenience my friends or family on their days off because they're already so busy. I love it when movers complain about moving "heavy" items. If you're a mover, shouldn't you expect that? I agree that these people were a piece-of-work. We have had movers (professional large moving company) that did all of the above, but luckily they did pay for the damage. We were stuck with them because we had to get out that day and an entire household was moving 3 states away. Many times moves can't be postponed. The picture idea is a good one! I hope you can collect everything you're entitled to.

Neighbors and co-workers work too.
I never heard any complain from anyone (after given them 6-pack beers) and/or dinner vouchers ($40).
If they are your true friends, they would be happy to help.
I took off work one day to help out a friend move.
Few years later, he did the same for me.

"Don't take fall tornado season lightly,†says EMA director August
Presumably, sirens are working and ready to go should the annual fall tornado season sneak into Midwest weather patterns this fall.
August told Berne City Council recently that the re-alignment of sirens in the city have tested effective for at least a mile. The siren that had been located by the South Adams Elementary School has now been moved in the vicinity of the city building.
"Really, because of the locations of the sirens around town, people won't notice much of a difference,†said August. "The sirens are all rated for at least a one mile outreach. That more than covers the needs of the city of Berne.â€
August said that on September 11, there would be a special check to verify the new siren system.
"We will absolutely know for sure then whether or not everything is working exactly the way that it should be,†said August.
August stressed that the outdoor sirens are technically geared as an outdoor warning service. He noted radios programmed for the National Weather Service are needed in order to have effective indoor warning capability.
"You want to make sure that if you're going to buy one, it is programmable just for Adams County,†said August. "You don't want to have warnings from other areas confusing you.â€
August said that many hardware stores carry the weather radios as well as Best Buy, Radio Shack, and various other department stores.
He noted that the radios can also be purchased over the Internet and that most are inexpensive in comparison to the important information that they get out.
"Most people don't stop to think that there is the potential for a very distinct tornado season as well as in the spring,†said August. "Just a few years ago, we had the third largest tornado outbreak in state history in late October. And of course, the tornado that slammed through Adams County and into Van Wert occurred on Nov. 10.
"The National Weather Service in recent years had identified and advocated the existence of a distinct fall tornado season. They warn that people should treat it with all of the respect of a spring outbreak in every way,†continued August. "It occurs when the colder air masses of fall start making their way into the atmosphere warmed by leftover summer heat. It can cause the same type of turbulence that occurs in the spring when the reverse is true.â€

Film and Digital Times Newsletter
Jon Fauer, ASC, cinematographer, director, and author of ten best-selling technical books, introduces the newsletter, Film and Digital Times. Published 6 times a year, each issue is 16 pages and focuses on the technical aspects of equipment, technique and technology.
The Newsletter idea began when Fauer started getting emails asking when an ARRI 235 Book might be ready. Since it takes over a year to do a book, he opted to pen a newsletteran episodic, continuing series of technical bulletins on the nuts and bolts, how-to, ins and outs of equipment and tools of our trade. And, of course, it would not just be ARRI equipment, but everything he and his colleagues encounter as they shoot features, commercials, television and meet with students and independents.

Here is the complete story behind the name that sets the gold standard for automotive safety, durability and quality.
Volvo has built a reputation building safe, rugged, dependable automobiles-the kind of car that can always be counted on. But for years, Volvos insistence on producing just this sort of vehicle had the company flirting with bankruptcy.
This is the saga of the oh-so Swedish vehicle that has changed automotive history. See how the vision of two men shaped everything that Volvo has become, and showed the world that there is more than one way to build a successful car. Discover how trucks kept Volvo in business for years, and how the landmark "Triple Four" finally paved the way for Volvo's emergence as a car company with the revelation that it held its value five times better than American cars at that time. Volvo sales exploded as the qualities that it had championed for years were finally embraced by a growing number of consumers.
From its origins as a ball-bearing company through the uncharacteristically sporty 840, VOLVO is the complete history of the cars famed as "Swedish Iron."

This liquid eyeliner comes in deeply pigmented shades of black, brown, and blue. The thin, flexible brush applicator imparts a smooth, even line of color and has the ability to create a thick or thin line depending on your preference.
Once set, the liner won't smudge, but beware: It takes a bit longer to dry than most so you have to be careful in the interim. Overall, this performs well, but there are certainly less expensive options to consider, including those from Almay and Maybelline.
Like Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, and Dior, Givenchy has established a global fashion empire that includes makeup and skin-care products (which are not reviewed at this time). While these French design companies know a great deal about fashion, their venture into makeup is more about style and packaging flamboyance than it is about the products' actual performance; that is, far more form than function.
Givenchy's sleek, chic packaging and designer prices are, for the most part, below par and not worthy of their cost. Adding to the less-than-stellar product selection is the fact that Givenchy products contain noticeable fragrance, which makes them even less desirable, at least for the long-term health of your skin. Fragrance (especially from multiple products worn at the same time) can cause irritation that hurts your skin's healing process and its ability to look and act younger.
Of course, there are some great products in this line, but despite our enthusiasm for them, they offer nothing that hasn't been done just as well (or better) by many other lines, whose prices aren't based on a couture fashion house's reputation. Still, if you're a Givenchy fan or a curious observer, you should know which products are worth your attention and which ones you can gloss over. Givenchy makeup is supposed to have something they refer to as "Prisme," which is meant to describe the prismatic, light-reflecting effect they've added to all of their products. You'll hear a lot from the Givenchy salespeople about the delicate interplay of color and light, but when you cut through the marketing mumbo jumbo, all that these products contain is shine, and it's the same shiny ingredients every other company in the world of makeup is using.
It's important to keep in mind that too much shine will only make the wrinkles you have look worse. While you'll hear that shine reflects light from wrinkles, you can easily dispel that notion by testing a shiny product over your wrinkles, and seeing how the shine makes them stand out, not soften.
Givenchy also carries on about the pigment technology they use, but it isn't unique to their brand. There are many different pigment technologies cosmetic formulators can use, and to one degree or another, all of them are responsible for the improvements we've seen in makeup over the past decade. Lines from L'Oreal to Giorgio Armani, Clinique, and Revlon all use modern pigment technology to create great makeup. In the end, choosing Givenchy is an option, but if you go that route, it's more important than ever (especially for your budget) to know the facts about what you're getting.
Note: The collection of Givenchy makeup reviewed on this site is representative of what's typically seen in U.S. Sephora stores that stock Givenchy.

Monday-Friday -- 5am-10am...way too early!
Saturday -- 6am-10am
NunYABiz...Just kidding, June 28th...send me something!
Grew up just south of Richmond, VA -- VA GIRL!!
I attended SOL - The School of Life. Again, kidding! I think the only people that should be allowed to use that phrase "School of Life"... are rappers over the age of 30. For real though, I went to several colleges out of high school - one of which was a Technical College where computer geeks were the "popular" kids. I studied communication and journalism along with a few other out-of-the-box careers like Criminal Science and Business Admin.
Favorite Movies
Willie Wonka (The Original!!), Batman Dark Night, Steel Magnolias, Liar Liar, Weird Science, Dirty Dancing -- I could go on, but I won't
Favorite Musical Artist You'd Like to Have Dinner with...and Why
Pink - cause I think she'd just tear her food right up! Like she'd mess up a rack of ribs. Like I would just sit there in awwww of her determination.
Favorite TV Shows
SMASH, Law and Order SVU, The Closer, Nurse Jackie, Dexter, Idol, Survivor, and Bob's Burgers (have you seen this? It's sooooo funny)
Favorite Place on Earth
My bed -- I love to sleep!!
One of the many weird things about me...
I don't watch music videos! I never have! It ruins the song for me.
Weirdest Life Experience
Seeing a tornado up close -- way too close. I wouldn't call it weird, as much as I would call it my "Angel" moment. I was outside at a pavillion type park thing. My mother and I huddled down under this table and this "guy" wrapped us in his overcoat to protect us when this tornado went by. After it was over...he was no where to be found (chills!!) Pretty awesome moment!
What Would You Do If You Weren't In Radio
Cry! I love what I do. If I wasn't here, I'd probably be teaching. I have several teachers in my family...so it's in my blood :)

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I apply for financial aid?
To apply for financial aid, you will need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This application is used to determine which aid programs you will be awarded. You can apply online at www.fafsa.gov/.
Why am I still considered a "dependent" student?
Federal student aid programs are based on the concept that it is primarily your and your family's responsibility to pay for your education. Because a dependent student is assumed to have the support of parents, the parents' information has to be assessed along with the student's, in order to get a full picture of the family's financial strength.
Determining a student's dependency status is important in determining a student's eligibility for federal aid programs. Your answers to questions on the FAFSA determine whether you are considered a dependent or independent student. An applicant is considered to be a dependent student unless he or she can answer "Yes" to one of the dependency questions on the application and are able to provide supporting documentation. If the student applicant answers "No" to all of the dependency status questions then her or she is considered to be a dependent student for federal student aid purposes and must provide parental information.
Please be aware that not living with your parents or not being claimed by them on tax forms does not make you an independent student for purposes of applying for federal student aid. Occasionally, unusual circumstances may exist that require a review of the student's dependency status. These unusual circumstances are commonly cases of abuse or abandonment. If you feel that you have an unusual circumstance, please contact the Office of Student Financial Aid.
What happens to my financial aid if I drop a class or withdraw completely from school?
Withdrawing from all classes or dropping a class at any point after the drop/add period will negatively impact your completion rate and possibly affect your eligibility for future aid. Additionally, if you withdraw from all courses during the semester, you may be required to return some of your financial aid.
How can I get more money?
We always award students with their maximum eligibility in federal aid based on their qualifications. However, because of federal loan limits, students may not have enough funds to cover all of their educational costs. If you are in need of additional funding beyond the aid you were awarded, you could consider a Parent PLUS Loan or a private student loan.
Do I have to complete the FAFSA every year?
If you want to receive financial aid funds, then yes, you have to complete the FAFSA every year.
What is the difference between a subsidized loan and an unsubsidized loan?
After you apply for aid, you may be offered either a subsidized or unsubsidized loan, or a combination of both. The primary difference between the two is the interest rate and when the interest begins to accrue.
- Subsidized Loans are awarded on the basis of financial need. You will not be charged any interest while the loan is in deferment status, such as while you are enrolled, as the federal government subsidizes or pays the interest.
- Unsubsidized Loans charge interest from the time the money is first disbursed until it is paid in full. The interest is capitalized, meaning that you pay interest on any interest that has already accrued. One way to minimize how much interest accrues is to pay the interest as it accumulates.
Only undergraduate students with demonstrated financial need are eligible for Subsidized Loans. Direct Unsubsidized Loans are available to undergraduate and graduate students. We use federal regulations to determine the amounts each student may borrow by considering the cost of attendance and other financial aid.
To learn more about Federal Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans, visit the Department of Education's Direct Loan comparison website.
When can I expect my loan refund? Can I get my aid early?
Financial aid is disbursed after drop/add has ended. Only students who have completed all the necessary requirements can expect for their funds to disburse at the end of drop/add. Check the Dates/Deadlines section of the website for the exact date of when aid will disburse.
Why am I considered not to be making Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) when I have no failing grades? I was advised to withdraw from the class rather than receive a low grade.
Even though withdrawing from a class may help your GPA, the SAP Policy considers hours dropped with a "W" as attempted. You must complete 67% of the classes you attempt to be meeting the progression portion of the SAP Policy.
What is verification and why was I selected?
Verification is a process mandated by the US Department of Education to confirm the accuracy of the information provided on the FAFSA. All requested documentation must be provided before a student's financial aid eligibility will be determined.
Is it too late to file my FAFSA?
You should complete your FAFSA as soon as possible after January 1. We encourage all students to apply by the April 1 priority date, as some resources are limited and may run out. However, if you miss the April 1 priority date it does not mean you cannot apply. You should submit the FAFSA as soon as possible so your aid eligibility may be determined.
What happens if I repeat a course?
In general, financial aid will pay for you to take a course twice. If you pass the course with a grade of a D or higher, financial aid will only pay for you to retake the course one additional time. If you have never passed the course, financial aid will continue pay for you to take the course again (meaning that you failed the course or withdrew from the course). If you are retaking a course for the third time after successfully completing the course (a grade of D or higher) previously, those hours will not count for financial aid purposes. This means that if you are only enrolled in 6 semester hours and one course is not counting because you have repeated it, your financial aid will be calculated on being enrolled in 3 semester hours. The repeat coursework rules only apply to undergraduate students. Repeating a course can also impact your Satisfactory Academic Progress status (SAP). All grades count for SAP and all hours attempted and earned count as well. PLEASE NOTE: If you have questions regarding your courses and repeat coursework, please contact your financial aid counselor. The rules for repeat coursework are quite complex and your individual situation will need to be reviewed.

I'd like a red Beastman further down the road as a repaint.
The earlierer version of Beastman didnt last long for a good reason.
The actual classic version seems perfect to me.
I'd buy a red version.

Nope, we have Beastman. Let's continue on with the rest of the classic figures.
he's too monochromatic. if they did a repaint with red fur instead of orange, that would be okay, but a completely red beast man (excluding stuff like the eyes and mouth) seems a little dull.

As for Beast Man, that's an interesting idea, but I wouldn't want it until waaaaay down the line. Possibly an early mini-comic multipack. That would be cool: a more Alcala Skeletor, red Beastie, orange Stratos, Green Goddess, and a He-Man in his first appearance (naked save for a loincloth and carrying a spear).

He's built like a gorilla in that early version, stubby legs and longer arms. It would be funny if it wasn't a collar but a mane, and he really was only wearing the bicept armor, and a neclace with teeth and the medalion.
I love my Skeletor but I would buy that Skeletor in a heartbeat.I'd buy a red beastman too but only if they plan on making the other color schemes for other characters like Mer-man,Stratos etc.
they could make at some point (after 1-2 years if the line lasts well) packages of alternative heads set, maybe 4/5 heads together, imagine an Alcala Skeletor, or an Angry Teela, or an Intelligent-looking Prince Adam.. that would be sweet...
.. and a little disturbing to looking at.
That repaint doesn't look half bad. I'd buy it.

Red Beast Man? No thanx. Those customs are pretty cool though.

My compliments to Doc!
I think those are cool.

Very nice customs. I like the orange Beast Man better. It suits his primitive nature. He looks too much like a devil all red.

Education & Education Reform
Quality primary and secondary education preparing them for higher education, jobs and careers is necessary for girls to grow into thriving adults. In order to expand career options science, math and technical education must be made more accessible and appealing to girls; for example, through gender awareness training for educators and organizers of science and technology-related programs. Schools must recognize the educational needs of adolescent girls, including comprehensive sex education and sound information about preventing STDs and unwanted pregnancy. Girls also require education about and protection from sexual harassment, bullying and other forms of violence.

Pendragon's New Publisher
My faithful and loyal friends,
Please share in my joy and exaltation.
The dreams and prayers of chivalry world wide have been heard.
The heavens themselves have split open.
Pendragon has a new publisher!!!
All praise Stewart Wieck!
Nocturnal is the name of the new publisher that has just finished acquisition of all rights to KAP that WW had.
This is Stewart's latest company, who has left WW and, as far as I am concerned, taken the best thing they had.
I am in on the planning at this stage.
I have no clue what else he is doing and, today, I do not care.
There are absolutely NO CONCRETE PLANS at this time, so please don't ask. When I know more, I will announce it here.
Meantime, thank you to all for your support and patience.
and HOORAY!
Pendragon is one of those games I always wished I had been able to play and run more. Perhaps this new edition will see just that.

You and I are on the same page on this one Zack. Pendragon has always been one of my favorite games I've never played. I have two or three different editions and most of their suppliments. All around quality stuff.

Pendragon was great a game. I can remember some of the best sessions ever from playing that game.

Pendragon is one seriously excellent game and well deserves a rebirth. Fingers crossed on this one.

Hoping this change means great things in its future.

Wow, 2010 off to a great start indeed! Thanks for calling my attention to this.
Guess I picked the right time to fire up the ol' Great Pendragon Campaign...
da Trux: Here you can read a summary of a fairly lengthy Pendragon campaign I ran a couple years back. And I've actually just started up an actual play thread on my blog devoted to following my effort to run the Great Pendragon Campaign from start to finish.

It's ok - buttons fall off This is the second pair that I've purchased. The fit & style is amazing. The only thing I dont like is after one wear the back right pocket button fell off both pairs. & then once I put it in the wash the buttons on the front fell off... Which doesn't really bother me since I wear a belt - but if I forget to grab it... It's bery bothersome. November 15, 2014
Nice pant run big I ordered these in my normal size but should have went down a size. The pant comfortable but does run large. September 13, 2014
Poor quality material I bought these pants for my 16 y/o daughter for work. The 2nd time she wore them, the 2 buttons on the back pockets had already fallen off and she was only able to find one of them at work. The front button was very close to coming off as well, but I was able to catch it in time and sew it back on properly. The pants have been washed a couple of times (then hung up to dry) and the material appears to be very cheap and is starting to thin and ball in the thigh area. We really like Buckle pants/jeans because both my daughter and I are tall so the extra length is always appreciated, but more often than not, the quality of material used is not that great. We have had this same issue with buttons falling off and material thinning in other jeans or pants we've purchased. July 21, 2014
Great Fit and true to size! I ordered the exact size I would in my jeans (27x37) and they fit just exactly right! They are so soft and comfortable. I have never been able to have casual work pants. I am thrilled with these!! Definitely will buy more! April 11, 2014
Great fit I'm 6'2" and 150 pounds. I got these in 28 x 37. They fit great and are long enough, which is a rare thing for me to find in dress pants! I'm not crazy about the ruching/wrinkles on the front of the hips though. Looks kind of awkward. April 9, 2014
Not terrible but not good First they run really big so go at least a size smaller. When I tried them on the first time the button fell off. They would be a great deal of they were $19.99 or less April 3, 2014
Poor - Don't Buy! I purchased two pairs of these pants for work. When trying them on in the dressing room they look good and seem to be a cute pair of pants which is why I bought two pairs. When you wear them for a whole day of work they look awful. They wrinkle super easy and stretch out horribly bad. I drive 40 minutes for work and by time I get their just from sitting my car they are all stretched out, wrinkled and look sloppy. I thought maybe by drying them in the dryer it would help but it doesn' They are just a poor quality pair of pants and do not recommend purchasing a pair. I am very disappointed and I usually don't complain but these pants aren't cheap. Don't waste your money! March 26, 2014
Not a quality product! I purchased the Serena pants in black, khaki and charcoal. I purchased 6 pairs, 3 in one waist size and 3 in another. The khaki and black are marginally ok, but the charcoal fabric is not colorfast WHATSOEVER. I washed my pants because I knew I would need to hem them--the charcoal pants came out of the wash extremely streaky-as if the fabric had faded only in certain places in the wash. I hemmed them anyway because I thought maybe they'd come out looking better after the 2nd wash, but I was quite wrong. I work at a school so I am around children all day--and I had a child spill some flour on the leg of these pants so I took a damp washrag to wipe the flour off. The color literally wiped off the pants and I'm left with a huge faded spot on the front of these pants! I debated on wearing the pants because of the streaks--now I most definitely can't ever wear them again because of the faded spot. I haven't spoken to anyone at the Buckle, but I am assuming I can't return them because I altered them myself (hemming). I am very disappointed in this product! I shop at the Buckle alot, and I've never had a complaint before. These pants are VERY poor quality; don't waste your money! March 3, 2014

What is it: Zagweb is Gonzaga University's self-service web information system. Current students, new and prospective students, employees, and alumni can receive access to Zagweb. Access for students includes course registration, grade reporting, course evaluation, financial aid, and student accounts information. Employees can access payroll, benefit, job, and other information. Beginning in 2012, all employees will record their work time electronically through Zagweb. Alumni can review/update their alumni record and link to the University's online alumni community, Zags-Online. Faculty can access advisor/advisee material, submit grades, review course evaluations, access course rosters, and review course schedules. New and prospective students can apply online, check on their application status or pay application fees.
How do I get access: To access Zagweb, type http://zagweb.gonzaga.edu into any standard web browser. Click the "Enter Secure Area" menu option.
