|Post-Employment Health Plan (PEHP)
|The City contributes a fixed dollar amount to individual employee accounts on a bi-weekly basis. Upon separation of service, these funds will be available to cover the cost of post-employment insurance premiums and medical expenses. In addition to the bi-weekly contributions from the City, employees who terminate employment after 10 or more years of service may be eligible to convert unused sick leave hours (on a dollar-per-hour basis) for deposit into said PEHP accounts.
|Overtime may be available to eligible employees, and is payable at 1-1/2 times the employee's hourly rate. Professional, administrative and supervisory employees who are not eligible for overtime remuneration may be allowed flexibility with other time-off provisions.

WASHINGTON - Tired of seeing doggy droppings accumulate in your neighborhood? There's a new app to the rescue.
France 24 reports three Paris students, who were sick of seeing mounds of dog waste accumulating on the side of the street in their neighborhood, made a mobile app to flag the "issues."
"Poople Maps" was developed to show local authorities the need for a solution to the pet waste, France 24 reports. It was launched as a way to show local residents the importance of picking up after their dogs.
The app will soon be available for download through Google's Play Store and the Apple Store.

Vitacost.com is HIGHLY Disorganized
Posted by
Vitacost has NUMEROUS issues that affect the consumers on a number of levels.
I have been a customer for years and because of my busy lifestyle and the low prices on their products, they always seemed the convenient choice for my vitamin purchases. I also have to admit that I have paid quite a heavy price for their low prices in the form of extreme aggravation, lost time and money and I am ceasing my business for them due to this last situation.
They have an awful policy of charging your credit card twice within a 24 -36 hour period.
What that does is freezes your account with that amount of money for five business days.
It will affect your checks and charges coming in if you are counting on the money that they blocked for five days - TWICE.
I've had this problem with them before and forgot about this policy when I ordered this last time around.
Vitacost has a terrible phone service, at least once or twice a week their phone lines go completely down .
When you are one of the lucky ones to get though you are stuck on hold no less than 15 to 20 minutes and the voice of this shrill woman at high octaves comes on every 60 seconds and states in a most annoying Robin Leach esque voice "never wait on hold again" and proceeds to tell you that your place in line will be held with a call back number and when it is your turn, Vitacost will call you back.
Guess what ? They NEVER call you back.
I've tried this service four times like an idiot and all four times - NEVER got a call back.
The only other alternative is to wait on hold with that horrible voice they have chosen for their system.
This time around they have caused me six overdraft fees as a result of charging my card twice.
My account is upside down and after calling four days in a row ( Mon - Thurs )and getting the run around, I am still nowhere except highly distressed.
My orders through the years have always been in the hundreds of dollars range, some closer to a thousand dollars and they have caused issues with my parents, my grandmother, and two colleagues...what are the odds ?
They screw up way too many times, they abuse your credit card in return they do nothing to make it right, other than just sending you in circles.
I highly suggest a company J&J Health Foods, their prices compete with Vitacost, and they deliver.
Vitacost needs to be investigated for their policies, not to mention their crapshoot service, with them, it's the luck of the draw.
If you are going to order from Vitacost.com, order at your own risk!

Delivery Time is Horrible/Horrific Customer Service
Posted by
LEXINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA -- As a long time customer who has been very happy with Vitacost's service in the past, I felt compelled to post this review after a recent horrific experience with the company. By the way, this is the first official negative review I have posted about a company in years so it takes a lot for me to be so angry that I will do this.
Last week, I placed an order on 1/22 for an OTC sinus remedy in the morning. Because I was anxious to receive the product, I paid $7.58 for ground shipping because in the past, doing so caused the product to reach me in two days since I live in Virginia.
I was very upset to receive an email on 1/24 that the product had just been shipped and that it wouldn't arrive until 1/28. According to Vitacost records, it was shipped on 1/23 but I suspect that because it didn't arrive at the UPS facility until late that day, it was not shipped until 1/24.
I was also angry because another supplement I ordered from another vendor in North Carolina that Vitacost does not carry arrived on 1/28. I had placed it on 1/26 with free shipping. The vendor's prices are lower than any other outfit that carries the same product.
So I contacted customer service with my complaint about delayed shipping and kept receiving boiler plate responses. I asked twice for a priority customer service callback to no avail.
During one phone call, I asked to speak to a supervisor and after a period of silence, I gave up. I later read in other reviews that this is common practice in not allowing customers to speak to supervisors.
The emails I sent were an exercise in extreme futility. When I sent a 2nd one, I asked that a supervisor respond. When it was clear one hadn't, I sent another one and again made my request and someone did respond with another typical boiler plate response.
When this person offered me a 5% discount on future purchases, I asked that the shipping charge be waived. I won't repeat what I thought of this person's offer but let's just say it wasn't positive. I never heard back from the company.
As a result of my horrific experience, I decided to post a complaint on my3cents because Vitacost needs to know that providing inferior service is not acceptable. I also wanted customers who were considering doing business with this company to hear about my experience.
After reading posts from VitaCat, a representative of the company who seemed sincere about resolving customer service issues, I decided to email her before posting this complaint. When she didn't respond, I decided to post it.
Needless to say, when my OTC remedy runs out, I will be looking for a new vendor who carries the product at a reasonable price and doesn't gouge for shipping.

As an FYI, VitaCat finally responded to the email I sent yesterday. Unfortunately, she has said nothing to change my mind about the situation.
VitaCat on 02/14/2013:
We sincerely appreciate your long term customer loyalty. I am very sorry that you had a negative experience that upset you to a point that you felt it best to reach outside of the company and warn others. I am the same person, VitaCat, and I have not received the email to which you refer. We do have a rigorous spam system that your email very well could have been lost in, and I apologize for that. I am happy to look over this and work with you to resolve it with your 100% satisfaction.
If the order was to be shipped with expedited shipping methods and it was input by 1PM, EST between Monday and Friday – it should have shipped the same day. Otherwise, it should ship the following business day. If this standard operating procedure is not carried out in that manner, it is our policy to refund the shipping costs. I would be more than glad to take your order information and refund that if this is the case.
To hear that our customers were not able to reach a supervisor when necessary is disheartening. I am sincerely sorry that even one of our customers feel this way. This isn't our normal business practice and it is honestly the first that I have heard of it. I will definitely share that with the upper management within the Customer Contact Center. Please email me again at email@example.com with the subject line reading "My3cents.com post reply to Catherine Corey" and I will pull that from spam this evening and reply.
Thank you in advance for allowing me to assist you.

I completely agree with the post. I have burned my fingers twice with Vitacost and they even refuse to make full refund. Swanson and iherb at least care for their customers. One of the orders I made with Swanson was returned from the customs here, but they resent it inside three days. That what's I call service. And iHerb, I have always received my orders inside five days, and I live in Asia. Never asked to wait for 60 days like Vitacost. The COST of shopping at Vitacost is really high!!!

Never Again!
Posted by
Today was the LAST time I'll order anything from Vitacost! I live in Panama and orders from the US are shipped to my mail forwarding company in Florida. The Vitacost form would not accept my complete mailing address, so my order of almost $300 will NOT reach me. They only give you 15 minutes to cancel an order and by the time I was delayed with their "Chat" and then on hold trying to call them, the 15 minutes had long past. See a copy of the chat from their idiot "representative."
2:38:00 PM : Dottie: Initial Question/Comment: I just placed this order about 10 minutes ago. I have been trying to add "PMB PMA - 60" to my shipping address but your form never adds it. "PMB PMA - 60" is vital to my shipping address. I will NOT receive my order without it. If I do not receive my order due to your error, I will have my credit card company refund my money.
2:38:20 PM : System: Lavon I. has joined this session!
2:38:20 PM : System: Connected with Lavon I.. Your Reference Number for this chat is 41591.
2:38:20 PM : System: Thanks for getting in touch. I'm researching the answer to your question right now. Stay tuned--I'll have a response for you in a moment.
2:39:00 PM : Lavon I.: You are not able to add products to an order unless you cancel the order and redo it.
2:39:14 PM : Lavon I.: You only have 15 minutes to be able to do that though
2:39:39 PM : Dottie: Grrrrrr - I am NOT trying to add a product, simply to have your form reflect my complete mailing address!
2:40:45 PM : Lavon I.: Sorry miss understood.
2:41:05 PM : Lavon I.: Is there an order number for me to be able to look at please.
2:42:47 PM : Dottie: I gave the order number when I signed up for this "chat" - 15765748
2:44:18 PM : Lavon I.: Thank you one moment please.
2:45:23 PM : Lavon I.: I do apologize but I an mot able to pull this order up right now. It will take at least 1 hour for it to download to us in order to see it.

Horrible First Experience With Company
Posted by
I was excited to learn about the company from hearing an ad on the radio. I wish now I had reviewed on the Internet what bad experiences others were having before making my very large order. I purchased about 30 items. Got an email a day or so after saying one item of the many was being shipped separately and I'd get an email when the rest of the items shipped. I got another email and was very excited to learn a day or so thereafter that the rest of the order allegedly had shipped. I received a box marked 2 of 2 which was poorly wrapped and prepared for shipping. Inside was a packing list indicating all remaining items were included in the shipment except the initial item sent previously (still not received by this time) and so I started counting the items sent to me to discover I was missing 18 items (not including the item allegedly previously shipped and the item listed as being on back-order).
I called customer service and held on a while and when I got someone live and told her the situation, she said to hold on so she could transfer me to customer service (curious as that is where I was supposed to be in the first place) and she then "transferred" my call to another period of waiting instead of a live customer support person. After waiting a while, I was directed to leave my phone number so they could call me back. Now I was getting really upset.
I logged on and clicked "chat" and got someone on the line. She wanted me to itemize the 18 items missing. I started doing so (it took awhile) and she looked into it and after a while advised that the first box containing these items had never left the warehouse and she would have it reshipped. Now I am finding all these negative reviews online and am really sorry I didn't do more investigation prior to making my order. We'll see how it turns out ...

A Series of Problems With Initial Vitacost.com Order
Posted by
FLORIDA, FLORIDA -- We recently placed an order for two bottle of Vitacost 16.9 oz. Fish Oil, and two bottles of Vitacost 16.9 oz. Cod Liver Oil. We had a surprising number of issues on this single order. In specific:
1. Shipping was relaiTVely slow.
2. The cod liver was out of stock (no indication of that when we placed the order) and it was shipped separately about two weeks after the fish oil was shipped to us.
3. When the package with the fish oil arrived, we discovered that both bottles were leaking, and there was a strong rancid oil smell.
4. When the package with the cod liver oil arrived, one of the bottles wasn't included in the package, even though the packing slip indicated that both bottles were shipped.
5. When we called Vitacost about the defective fish oil, their customer service told us to discard the shipment, and that they'd immediately issue a credit to our credit card. Weeks later, that credit has never been issued. We've called and emailed Vitacost multiple times about their failure to issue a credit. Their customer service staff has told us any number of times that the credit has been issued on a particular date, we don't receive it, call back, and are given entirely different information.
6. When we called Vitacost about the missing bottle of cod liver oil, again, they claimed to have issued a credit for the missing item, and we have yet to receive the credit. Again, the information that has been provided by their customer service department does not align at all to what my credit card company tells me re the alleged issuance of a credit.
7. We've now called/emailed eight times and still haven't been issued the credits that Vitacost.com promised to issue.
Overall, Vitacost customer service staff aren't hard to reach, but after a whole handful of problems on a single small order, and apparently poor follow through on issuing credits, this has been arguably the worst online vendor of natural supplements that we've ever ordered from.

If I used cod liver oil (I use a generic multivitamin and leave it at that), I'd probably pick up the generic product at our grocery store pharmacy for about $3 per 100 count. Thanks for sharing your experience with Vitacost. It will save people from going through the problems you've had with them.
VitaCat on 02/15/2012:
Hi there, msrw. I am sorry that you experienced the damaged items as well as the lack of assistance. I would personally like to resolve this issue for you as soon as possible. Please send me an email with the order number and the items still not resolved. Once I receive that I can quickly remedy this situation. Although we do have issues arise, we strive to do our best at resolving them. Thank you in advance for allowing us another opportunity to make this right for you.

Beware of Vitacost shipping
Posted by
BOCA RATON, FLORIDA -- I have been a customer of Vitacost for well over 2 years. When I place my orders I order with the expectation that an order will be shipped within 24hrs as indicated on their site. however, they neglect to inform the customer that shipping carrier choice is their option. The majority of health & beauty sites that I have dealt with, automatically ship via UPS unless faster shipping is chosen. I recently ordered $156 of product. The site specified that 2 of them would not be available until a week later which was fine. Everything else would be shipped within 24hrs, I paid for shipping twice for 2 orders. Vitacost shipped the first order UPS & put a tracking # on the site. They included one of the items that wasn't supposed to be available until the later date which was not right. I received the box in 4days. I realized on delivery that the 2nd box would include vitamins that I desperately needed which was 16oz and should have been included in the first box and shipped UPS since it was 1-lb weight. Vitacost specifies that items under 1 lb are shipped using a postal svc company "Mail Innovations" so my order should not have shipped with them. No tracking info. was provided on the site for the 2nd box! after calling customer svc, I found out Vitacost chose to send the 2nd box by postal mail with no expected delivery date &Cust svc could not provide a delivery time frame. I was unable to track the pkg using the tracking # given by customer svc & unable to reach anyone at their carrier, Mail Innovations. This is the 2nd time Vitacost has done this with my order. I'm still waiting for my order. On an order placed in July '09, Vitacost chose to send by postal mail, the same carrier. I was again unable to track the order, I had to leave on vacation, and the package never arrived. I was however able to have my credit card credited. I am annoyed and thoroughly disgusted with the shipping policies, the lack of helpful knowledge of the customer service reps, and the inaccessibility of a viable outlet for complaints and resolutions. Shows how this company cares about customers. It is not worth the hassle to shop here. There isn't even an email address other than within the site to their customer service. Oh, I happened to locate an email address from another disgruntled customer's review. I wish I had read resellerratngs.com before I chose to shop here & stress myself. Do yourself a favor & check them out before ordering.

I agree, Vitacost is terrible on their shipping and customer service. Their attitude is they don't care and if they lose the package they will charge you the full cost of your order.

I ordered a product from Vitacost and paid extra for faster shipping (priority). It did not arrive on the expected delivery date. When it did arrive it was just loose in a plastic bag, no wrapping or anything. This is not the first time this has happened. Vitacost used to ship in boxes. Their service has gone downhill. When I've ordered from I-Herb, everything has always arrived well packed and in a timely manner. Do yourself a favor and don't order from Vitacost.
RepeatVitacostBuyer on 03/27/2012:
I have been buying from Vitacost for a number of years. Have always been very happy. However, just received my last order and the packaging is strange. Cardboard box, no Vitacost insignia, appears to have been repackaged. Items inside seem like they had oil (?) spilled on them and were wiped off. Items were "thrown" inside a white garbage bag before being placed in box. I have NEVER received a Vitacost order packaged like this.
I'm left to wonder if they were repackaged by Vitacost before mailing or if there was a mishap at UPS or USPS (package went through both) and someone repackaged my items in a new box. I can tell the items were initially in a different box.
Herb Kaplan on 06/29/2012:
Twice I ordered a product and since I live in the Bahamas I paid for UPS worldwide shipping, and twice they sent it DHL Global mail, a form of EMS. I think they are making their money on their shipping with this bait and switch tactic. Their customer service people are on another planet, when you try to talk to them
jaime on 07/03/2012:
I recently placed an order with Vitacost, one of the things was a bottle of jojoba oil. it exploded all over everything. I was told they would refund the bottle but nothing else. the box was literally dripping in oil. I would never walk into a grocery store and buy packages covered in oil, yet they seemed to think it was no problem. horrible customer service and shipping!
Peter on 12/10/2012:
Wish I had read these reviews before placing an order that never arrived. When I contacted Vitacost after 16 days of waiting, I was told that my order had been returned "no reason given" and Vitacost would credit me 1/2 the invoice total and an additional 20% restocking fee (for an order never rec'd). I called to complain and was told they'd credit the full amount...I'm still waiting..$75!!
Michelle on 04/23/2013:
Poor customer service! You are absolutely correct they could careless. I ordered on Saturday morning with 2 day air shipping. I assumed it would ship Monday morning, since I paid extra. No! It shipped late Monday night! So instead of receiving the package Tuesday, I will receive it Wednesday. Contacted customer service. "Sorry, ma'am. The next time order it 1 day air" Seems wrong to me. If I am paying extra fora service, I would think the company would uphold their end of the deal and try to mail the package in a timely manner. If not at least refund the difference which was less than $10. Really? They make (made) a ton of $$ off my family and they couldn't refund less than. $10 because they sat on my order for the entire day. No thank you Vitacost! Thankful there are tons of other choices!
Trish on 10/16/2013:
I've been ordering from Vitacost for many years and have never had any problems with their shipping or customer service. I'm sorry to hear others have had.
Arlene on 12/09/2013:
Trish.. you have just been lucky. I included myself in the same boat.. until my orders started going missing/ never arriving, after weeks of waiting . The customer service reps I dealt with, were totally unsympathetic/ unsatisfactory.. and the company does not track their missing orders or offer easy/ full refunds... or guarantee delivery of orders. I have now been charged hundreds of dollars, for orders that stalled in tracking and then disappeared. There are many similar customer complaints to mine.. posted all over the internet.. and I read that the company has lost it's BBB accreditation due to customer service / lost order related issues. I plan to start credit card chargeback process..as the company has taken my money but failed to deliver my orders. I have read hundreds of complaints online, as to this company.. regarding their lost orders.. and poor customer service. I only wish I had taken the time to research online more.. before I trusted and placed such large orders with Vitacost.

Not Trustworthy

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA -- Vitacost.com
2055 High Ridge Rd.
Boynton Beach, FL 33426
I have made many purchases with vitacost.com over the past few years. Their products are good and their service is usually good. If you e-mail them about their products and want additional info, then they are very prompt in replying. If you have a problem with them, then forget about e-mailing them. they only want to hear from you if you have something good to say. That is OK, as I could live with that because I enjoyed their products.
Now, here is what I cannot live with. Back in early January this year I placed some orders and at the end of one of my orders was a statement that read.."do you want free shipping on your next order?" I clicked on that site and it was a gimmick and I saw nothing that I was interested in, so, I clicked off that site and back to vitacost.com. I did not join any club or give this site any of my personal info or my debit card number. On 1-30-07, I saw that $14.95 had been charged to my debit card by a company named "shopping essentials plus" Since I had never heard of them, I called my bank and my bank rep called shopping essentials and they told my rep that they got my personal info and debit card number from "vitacost.com". This was a real shock to me. We cancelled my membership with them and several days later they credited my $14.95 back to my account.
I e-mailed vitacost.com and told them about this incident and told them I did not appreciate them giving out my personal info and card number to anyone, and if this is what they were doing, I would never order from them again. They did not reply. I have since e-mailed them two more times and they still have not replied to any of my three e-mails. My 2nd and 3rd e-mails I told them if they do not reply, then that pretty well proves they did give out my personal info. Also told them I would file complaints against them if they did not reply. Still no replies. I have now filed complaints with the Better Business Bureau and the Florida attorney General's Office.
I just do not understand a company that I have given a lot of my supplement business to would do this. The really hard thing is that they will not even reply to my e-mails.
The reason for this e-mail is to warn as many people as I can. Be very careful before you give this company any of your personal info or card numbers. If there were a mix up or Vitacost really did not pass this info on to shopping essentials, then would you not think they would have certainly have responded to my e-mails?
I know that I can no longer trust vitacost.com, and will NEVER buy anything from this company again, and just want everyone to know about them.

This seems to be happening a lot now. I believe it is a side-effect of the no-call laws. Companies are finding creative ways to sign people up. By creative, I mean dishonest, for the most part.
sexybaby on 12/01/2009:
GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!! Something/someone has to wake them up on the way they're treating customers. Maybe warning bells will go off, in their tiny little minds, of the way they are treating people, although, they "should" already know this, and they'll wake up before its too late and they end up losing long time customers along with newbies that will steer clear of them. Oh well, their loss.

I have been using Vitacost for supplements for about a year and have found them to be reliable and in most cases their products are less expensive even with added shipping. I make it my business to research supplements before I order and understand what the product they offer has in it as labeled.

A Complete Hassle to Deal With.
Posted by
ONLINE, FLORIDA -- If I could give negative stars, I would. Their prices and customer service have always been incredible, but I've noticed in the last 6-9 months, they have gone completely downhill. I live in Canada and they started advertising "No surprise tax bill at your door" in their Canada shipping ads. I thought this was too good to be true -- and it was. After my delivery, I emailed them to clarify and their response was:
"We guarantee duty free shipping, however, actual tax may differ from duty. I apologize for any inconvenience."
If that's the case, they really need to stop calling it No surprise tax bill at your door and replace it with no surprise duty bill at your door. I think this is false advertising, however, seeing that 99% of the time I am paying duty when ordering from a US merchant, I'm not surprised when these additional costs do come up upon delivery -- in fact, I expect it.
However, what upset me the most is that in my last two orders, I received the shipment in 2 boxes and they pasted the same total invoice to both boxes -- meaning I paid double the duties/taxes. After it happened the first time, I emailed them and they were quick to refund the duplicate charge, but they could not guarantee it wouldn't happen again. Of course, a mere 2 months later, it happened again on my next shipment and once again, I had to go through the whole process all over again. They claimed they put a refund through on my credit card, but that was nearly a month ago and I called my credit card company who said nothing has gone through yet.
Honestly, it's just not worth the hassle...unfortunately, stay away :( Amazon doesn't deliver most supplements/vitamins to Canadian customers, so I find luckyvitamin.com to be a great alternative if you're in Canada ordering from the US.

Misleading promos. Bait and switch
Posted by
LEXINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA -- I just called your customer service line and explained that I was very unhappy with the way Vitacost uses their promo codes as bait but rarely honors them. I became familiar with Vitacost through a promo for $10 off your first order. I familiarized myself with your website and loaded my cart. Upon checkout the system would not take the promo code. I called the customer service line for help only to be told that the coupon could not be combined with any other promo and since the items I chose were on promo, the coupon wouldn't work. They spoke matter-of-fact and they were not sympathetic to the issue and the fact I wasted my time. Nowhere on the coupon did it say that it could not be combined with any other promo. Even though I made that clear to the customer service rep, they did not honor the coupon. At that point I started receiving emails with promos.
A few months later I attempted to use a promo. Again, it wouldn't take it even though I had received the email only 1 day before. Apparently I was 2 hours late. Again, another bait without honoring the promo. You should give your customers a reasonable amount of time to use the promos you advertise to avoid frustration on our end.
Today I tried to take advantage of your BOGO offer on Vitacost products. The banner clearly states in large print "Buy one get one 50% off on Vitacost brand products". So I loaded my cart with two coconut oils and attempted to check out with the promo. It didn't work. I called the customer service line and was told that item was excluded. I'm very frustrated and feel that Vitacost baits us with misleading emails and refuses to honor what they represent to the customer. As I was speaking to the customer service supervisor I noticed the fine print at the very bottom in very small letters "exclusions may apply". Again, a very underhanded way to promote your products. I told the css that I wanted the promo honored for the Vitacost product I chose because after three poor experiences with your promos I was feeling mislead and I wanted them to honor the promo as it was represented. She checked with her manager who denied my request even though I made it clear they would lose my business.
It's unbelievable that this is how your manager handled this situation after I expressed willingness to be loyal to your business if only I was shown an act of good faith and extended a reasonable offer considering I've been jerked around so much.
Vitacost needs a good lesson in customer appreciation and circumstantial exceptions to the hard and fast rule.

This is not bait and switch - it is the consumer's responsibility to read the terms and conditions and abide by the promo rules.
Catherine at Vitacost on 09/03/2013:
I'm so sorry to hear that you had a negative experience. I am more than happy to share this with the folks that create and execute the promotional offers. In the meantime, if we need to discuess further, please email me directly at email@example.com. Thanks in advance for letting me help!

What I Can Only Describe as Deliberately Underhand
Posted by
LEXINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA -- I ordered some supplements via Vitacost 26/11/12.
They shipped the box with the 'wrong' order value on the dispatch details, meaning I was charged import duty, where there shouldn't have been any. To reiterate, the value they put on the label outside was not what I paid (invoice), and didn't even match their own pick ticket sheet inside the box.
I did not accept the package as the purchase was specifically calculated not to trigger my countries (UK) import duties. ie under £15. I explained the issue and was told via email, that I would be given a refund if I sent a scan of the charge. I picked up the package and paid the duty. I then sent the scans, and customer support (surprise surprise) refused my promised refund and denied any responsibility.
Customer service is terrible if you have a problem. Whether you're an international or domestic customer, there are better options. My next try will be with Swanson, considerably cheaper and you often get buy 1 get 1 free on many of the same products.
One final thought, If they can lie as easily as they did, their customers truly mean nothing to them.
Hope this helps

I am so sincerely sorry for the inconveniences you experienced with your most recent order despite there being no fault of your own. I am more than happy to take a look at the scan you've sent us and issue a refund for that amount. Please email me directly at firstname.lastname@example.com at your earliest convenience. I am looking forward to resolving this to your complete satisfaction as soon as possible.

I completely agree with the post. I have burned my fingers twice with Vitacost and they even refuse to make full refund. Swanson and iherb at least care for their customers. One of the orders I made with Swanson was returned from the customs here, but they resent it inside three days. That what's I call service. And iHerb, I have always received my orders inside five days, and I live in Asia. Never asked to wait for 60 days like Vitacost. The COST of shopping at Vitacost is really high!!!
Becca on 08/20/2013:
Vitacost CS philosophy: BECOME A MASTER AT SAYING, I AM SORRY, AND LEAVE IT AT THAT. The conversation customers have w/Vitacost begins and ends with one, big, apology, and nothing more.
missy1462 on 09/10/2013:
To say the least, I am shocked at the reviews I have been reading about Vitacost. I have been a very satisfied customer fro many, many years and have never once had a problem with a single order. I also never felt that $4.99 shipping was a bad price to pay, no matter the size of your order. They are probably about the cheapest place I purchase from for shipping costs.

In Arbaugh v. Y & H Corp., the Supreme Court established a bright-line rule to guide lower courts in determining whether to treat a statutory element as a jurisdictional prerequisite or merely an essential ingredient of a particular claim:
If the Legislature clearly states that a threshold limitation on a statute's scope shall count as jurisdictional, then courts and litigants will be duly instructed and will not be left to wrestle with the issue. . . . But when Congress does not rank a statutory limitation on coverage as jurisdictional, courts should treat the restriction as non-jurisdictional in character.
546 U.S. 500, 515-516 (2006) (internal citations omitted).
Last week the Tenth Circuit reaffirmed its position on a point of law first articulated in Sullivan v. Scoular Grain Co., in which the court "noted that federal question jurisdiction exists so long as the essential elements of an [Federal Employers Liability Act, or "FELA"] claim — including the defendant's common carrier and employer status — are alleged." Smith v. Rail Link, Inc., No. 11-8011 (10th Cir. Oct. 23, 2012) (citing Sullivan v. Scoular Grain Co., 930 F.2d 798, 802-03 (10th Cir. 1991)).
The Tenth Circuit panel acknowledged that other circuits have taken the opposite view on the matter, but expressed confidence that it was on the right side of the conflict:
In light of the absence of discussion on the jurisdictional question in Sullivan, and subsequent Supreme Court teachings on the point (e.g., Arbaugh), we might question the precedential value of Sullivan's holding on this narrow question.
Nevertheless, because the FELA statute does not speak to these elements in jurisdictional terms, we see no reason to disturb the implicit conclusion reached in Sullivan.5 Accord Arbaugh, 546 U.S. at 511 (directing federal courts to focus on provisions of a statute explicitly speaking in jurisdictional terms when distinguishing between essential ingredients of a claim and jurisdictional requirements).6 Accordingly, consistent with Sullivan, we conclude that the district court had subject matter jurisdiction to hear this case, and thus had the power to enter final judgment.
5 Although the Supreme Court has not directly addressed this question, it has hinted that these elements are essential ingredients of a claim for relief under FELA rather than prerequisites to the exercise of federal question jurisdiction. See CSX Transportation, Inc. v. McBride, 131 S. Ct. 2630, 2644, 180 L. Ed. 2d 637 (2011) (speaking to "limitations" — as opposed to jurisdictional barriers — on "who may sue, and for what" when referring to a defendant's common carrier and employer status).
The Court has suggested that the requirement that an employee be engaged in interstate commerce at the time of injury is a jurisdictional requirement. See Reed v. Pennsylvania Rail Co., 351 U.S. 502, 508, 76 S. Ct. 958, 100 L. Ed. 1366 (1956) (upholding district court's exercise of federal question jurisdiction over a FELA claim on the ground that the plaintiff's employment duties were in furtherance of interstate commerce operations of a defendant who was undisputedly a common carrier employer). But it is logical to distinguish the "interstate commerce" element from the "common carrier" and "employer" elements given that the former justifies Congress legislating in this field in the first place under the Constitution's Commerce Clause, while the latter are requirements that Congress chose to impose separate from establishing its power to legislate.
In this case, there is no dispute whether Ms. Smith was furthering interstate commerce when she was injured — she was facilitating the loading of coal that will eventually be distributed around the country.
6 We recognize that holdings from other circuits suggest that these requirements are jurisdictional in nature. See Williamson v. Consolidated Rail Corp., 926 F.2d 1344, 1346 (3d Cir. 1991) (affirming district court's dismissal for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction where the case was brought under FELA and the trial court concluded that the defendant was not the plaintiff's employer as a matter of law); Mickler v. Nimishillen & Tuscarawas Railway Co., 13 F.3d 184 (6th Cir. 1993) ("The sole basis for federal jurisdiction in this case is FELA. Because defendant is not a common carrier and FELA does not apply, there is no federal question."); Aho v. Erie Mining Co., 466 F.2d 539 (8th Cir. 1972) (affirming district court's determination that jurisdiction was lacking where defendant in a FELA action was not a common carrier).
While there is substantial authority from our sibling circuits suggesting a conclusion different from the one we reaffirm today, we think that Sullivan's holding better accords with the Supreme Court's most recent teachings on the difference between essential elements of a claim (which are not jurisdictional) and jurisdictional requirements. Accordingly, we do not disturb it.
Smith v. Rail Link, Inc., No. 11-8011 (10th Cir. Oct. 23, 2012) (10th Cir. Wyo. Oct. 23, 2012).

By BOB LEWIS
AP Political Writer
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Virginia's not the only electoral battleground with a Republican-ruled legislature where President Barack Obama mopped up last year en route to re-election.
But it is the first to act on an ambitious menu of Republican legislation aimed at preventing another Democratic triumph. The result beckons partisan paralysis of the state Senate and a budget stalemate for the second consecutive year and the death of important education and transportation reforms.
The long-term consequences, however, are more sobering.
First, let's review.
Democrats turned out in huge numbers in Virginia last fall despite the state's brand new voter identification law, creating waiting lines of four hours or more at some jammed polling places. So this year, Republicans propose even tougher identification standards, including one bill that would compel voters to present photo identification.
Bills by Democrats and even one Republican to reduce long election day lines by loosening criteria for early absentee voting have been summarily killed one after another in GOP-dominated House subcommittees over the first 17 days of the 46-day session.
One week ago, on the Martin Luther King holiday, the Senate's 20 Republicans caught one of the Senate's 20 Democrats _ civil rights lawyer Henry Marsh _ away at President Barack Obama's inauguration and, without notice and in about 30 minutes, muscled through a pro-Republican redraft of all 40 Senate seats on a party-line 20-19 vote.
The next day, a Senate subcommittee advanced Sen. Charles W. Carrico's bill to scrap Virginia's winner-takes-all method of awarding its 13 electoral votes in presidential elections and instead apportion electors by congressional district to the candidate who wins each district. Under Carrico's bill, Obama would have won only four electoral votes from Virginia last fall while Republican Mitt Romney would have won nine, even though Obama won 51 percent of the statewide popular vote to Romney's 47 percent.
Republican-led legislatures in other states Obama won _ Wisconsin and Pennsylvania _ are considering similar measures with Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus cheering on the initiative.
Carrico's bill appears doomed after two Republican senators said Friday that they will oppose it when it comes before the Privileges and Elections Committee on Tuesday. Republican Gov. Bob McDonnell also came out against it Friday.
Democrats are furious at what they see as thuggish efforts by GOP legislative majorities to rig elections in their favor. Now, the two sides are barely civil to each other. Each side in the once clubby, collegial Senate accuses the other of bad faith or worse.
"What they couldn't do at the ballot box they tried to do with a pencil," Richard L. Saslaw, leader of the Senate's Democrats, fumed in a Thursday radio interview.
Monday's Republican power play ignored conventions and traditions generations old in the Senate. It also ignored a 2004 amendment to the Virginia Constitution that directs legislative and congressional lines be redrawn once every decade after each U.S. census in years ending with the numeral 1.
When the Senate lines were redrawn in 2011, Democrats were in the majority. The election that fall created a 20-20 tie, but Republican Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, who presides over the Senate, tipped the scales to the right, allowing the GOP to act as the majority rather than share power.
The new lines the Republicans seek to impose could give their party the advantage in several additional districts that Democrats now hold starting with the 2015 Senate elections.
Imperiled in the partisan crossfire is a last stab at legislative legacy for the term-limited Republican governor, Bob McDonnell. He has submitted the most sweeping transportation funding reforms in 27 years, as well as a public education package that increases educators' pay but holds them more accountable.
McDonnell scowled Tuesday when asked about the Senate Republicans' ambush approach to redistricting, saying it's "not the way we should be doing business." He was blindsided by it, just like everyone else. Senate Democrats say he could singlehandedly restore legislative peace by saying he'd veto it. But when asked, the governor last week said he won't decide until the bill reaches his desk.
The measure awaits action Tuesday on the House floor. Opinion varies within the House's 68-member GOP majority whether it should pass or be defeated, or whether Speaker Bill Howell should procedurally derail it by ruling the stealthy Senate amendment aggressively reordering Senate districts statewide not germane to the original bill, which made minor technical corrections to House districts.
Should it pass and should McDonnell sign it, the U.S. Department of Justice will scrutinize the new lines for compliance with the 1965 Voting Rights Act, a legacy of the civil rights era that prohibits dilution of minority voting strength.

True pressure gate
Order in the next 2 hours 57 minutes and select next working day for delivery to mainland UK on Tuesday
The Premier True Pressure Fit safety gate is the newest version of the classic Premier which has been Baby Dan's bestselling safety gate for several years. The gate has a slim line handle which is easy to operate. The handle incorporates a built in safety indicator making it very easy to install, no drilling is required - thus the gate does not leave marks on your wall or door frame. Everything you need for mounting for the safety gate is in the box. Premier can be fitted without the use of wall cups covering opening up to 93.3cm.
Was very easy to install and the pressure is great to help make sure it is fitted properly. Easy to use.
It will be used on the stairs. I like it because it is easy fixed to the walls. Up to now not found anything wrong with it.
Bought for use on our stairs. Wanted a gate that doesn't require any fixings to the wall/banister. Does exactly as it says on the tin! Only wish would be auto close!
Good gate, extensions are easy to add & gate is easy to fit. The pressure fitting is better than the Lindam easyfit plus which became stiff to open when fully tensioned. The gate can easily be operated one handed. It also has a wider opening than the Lindam gate. The only down-sides for me are that there is no way to restrict the gate to one way opening (which you can with the Lindam one), & the pressure sensor on the gate which tells you when it is tight enough was unreliable as on one gate it was fine but on the other we were unable to open or close the gate at the tightness that it took to make the red line disappear
After a lot of research on stair gates I finally decided on this one. I wanted one that did not screw in to my walls and that I could move around to other parts of the house if needed. This does everything it says on the box and isn't too bulky either and does not ruin my doorways. I bought it so I could keep my dog in a different room when needed and she also wouldn't feel isolated. Very pleased with my purchase and would recommend to anyone.

We aim to please! One of the Calgary Public Library's volunteer career coaches, Saudah Chan, suggested that we purchase her favourite book on academic CVs, and it just arrived. Here's her review of a book that handles the tricky field of academic disciplines:
For the academic job search novice, The Academic Job Search Handbook, 4th edition would prove useful as a general overview of preparation required two years before completion of one's PhD, the hiring and application process, and interview considerations. Also useful are the newly added sections of dilemmas facing dual career couples and family planning. While the introduction indicates that its contents are geared towards American academic applicants, it would still prove useful as a generalist perspective.
The book also has delightful new additions including more CV samples, as well as sample teaching statements and non-academic resumes. For teaching dossiers, Surviving Your Academic Job Hunt by Kathryn Hume would provide more in-depth advice, and could also be considered by those in other disciplines such as physical and life sciences, including the summary of teaching evaluation samples provided.
Overall, this book is must-read for those who wish to demystify the academic job hunt, and wish to prepare early on for the next stage in their career.
Saudah enjoyed advising PhDs on the academic job search for five years at the University of Toronto Career Centre as coordinator of the Graduate Dossier Service and her presentations on How to Apply to Academic Jobs. Currently, she continues to assist PhDs with their job related inquiries.

CSID Awarded Contract to Provide Identity Protection Coverage to South Carolina Taxpayers
Columbia, SC (October 4, 2013) --- The South Carolina Budget and Control Board today announced that CSID, a leading provider of global enterprise-level identity protection and fraud detection technologies and solutions, has received the award to assist South Carolina taxpayers whose personal information was compromised during the 2012 Department of Revenue (DOR) security breach.
Eligible taxpayers will be able to enroll either online or over the phone with CSID's state-provided identity protection coverage by no later than October 24, 2013. The deadline to enroll is October 1, 2014.
"I applaud the state Budget and Control Board for selecting a vendor whose services offer comprehensive identity protection solutions for not only South Carolina individuals, but businesses as well. CSID's services provide a range of credit and identity monitoring proven to cover potential identity theft, and we hope that all eligible taxpayers will take advantage of the state-provided service through CSID," said DOR Director Bill Blume.
In addition to comprehensive credit bureau monitoring, CSID offers specialized identity monitoring of events such as surveillance of internet and other media for use of personal identifying information. Black market identity monitoring provides internet surveillance to alert individuals if their identity has been stolen, allowing time to remediate before a fraudulent event can occur. If needed, CSID's Identity Theft Restoration Services will restore the individual's identity to a pre-compromised state and is available to all eligible individuals even if they have not enrolled with CSID.
Minor dependents, adult dependents, and businesses will be eligible for CSID enrollment no later than October 24, 2013.
In the coming weeks, CSID will launch an enrollment outreach plan to educate the taxpayers of South Carolina on the state-provided services available.
"Data breaches continue to grow in frequency and severity of impact to both organizations and affected individuals," said Joe Ross, president of CSID. "CSID offers a comprehensive array of identity protection solutions and services to assist in the mitigation of a data breach event. Our coverage will not only provide incremental identity theft protection for the impacted citizens of South Carolina, but we are also able to offer these services at a price that is cost-effective to the state."
For more information or a list of frequently asked questions, please visit the DOR website at www.sctax.org/security.

4/09 in Yankee History
1996: Before an estimated crowd of 50'000
for the home opener with Kansas City' the Yankees snowball the Royals' 7-3' behind Andy
Pettitte. The final tally is 7 runs' 10 hits' and 2 inches – of snow. The day will have a second highlight when the Yankee front office offer a free ticket to one of three upcoming games to all who had
suffered through the conditions. (Some cynics will draw attention to the fact that the tickets are offered only to games against opponents not expected to draw well in the Bronx).
1990: After weeks of sometimes tense negotiations, Don Mattingly signs a five-year deal for almost
$20 million. It will be his last player contract.
1989: Rickey Henderson steals his 800th career base, though the Yankees fall 4-3 to the the Indians.
1985: David Robertson is born. Happy 26th to D-Rob!
1981: Before 55'123 at the Stadium' the Yankees gun down the Rangers'
10-3. Bucky Dent and Bobby Murcer hit homers' with Randolph following
Murcer's blow with a triple. Dave Winfield' in his New York debut' has
two hits and two walks' and Tommy John scatters 7 hits in 8 innings to
win over Jon Matlack.
1971: The A's trade outfielder/first baseman Felipe Alou to the Yankees
for pitchers Rob Gardner and Ron Klimkowski. Klimkowski will come back
to the Yankees next year and Gardner will return in 6 weeks.
1967: Graeme Lloyd is born. Thanks for the '96 October magic, Graeme, and happy 44th!
1965: President Lyndon B. Johnson joins 47'878 fans for the opening of
Harris County Domed Stadium (better known as the Astrodome). The Astros
win an exhibition with the Yankees 2-1 in 12 innings on a Nellie Fox
single. Mickey Mantle hits the first home run in the new park.
1963: In the Opener at Kansas City' Ralph Terry pitches a complete game
8-2 win for the Yankees. Led by Joe Pepitone's two homers and a double'
New York collect 13 hits. Elston Howard adds a homer off A's starter
Diego Segui.
1953: In an exhibition game at Forbes Field' Mickey Mantle gets all of
a Bill MacDonald curve and hits it over the right field roof' joining
Babe Ruth and Ted Beard as the only hitters to accomplish that since
the upper deck was added in 1925. Ruth's homer over the structure was
the 714th and last of his career.
1947: Commissioner Happy Chandler suspends manager Leo Durocher of the
Brooklyn Dodgers for the entire season for incidents detrimental to
baseball. Larry MacPhail and the Dodger organization are fined $2'000
each' and Yankee coach Charley Dressen is sent down for 30 days. A feud
involving Durocher' MacPhail' and Dodger officials rocked the training
season. The Yankees' signing of Dressen and Red Corriden' longtime
Brooklyn coaches' charges of consorting with Cuban gamblers against
MacPhail' and charges and counter charges that Durocher had sought-or
been offered-the Yankee managerial post were included in the hearing
before Chandler.
1916: The Yankees turn down an offer by the Red Sox to trade Tris
Speaker for cash and Fritz Maisel (below). Boston will ultimately swap the star
outfielder, who did not take well to the notion of his salary being cut' to
Cleveland, for Sam Jones, Fred Thomas and $50'000. Speaker will hold
out for $10'000 of the purchase price: AL President Ban Johnson will finally
intervene and Speaker will collect.

If you're a seasoned gardener you know there are times when you'll have bumper crops of vegetables overflowing from your garden, and you know what it's like to experience that wonderful feeling of being able to share your bounty with family and friends.
As you harvest your fall vegetables and begin to plan for your spring garden, why not consider sharing your bounty with those in need? One organization that is committed to reducing hunger in America is AmpleHarvest.org, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. AmpleHarvest.org is a nationwide effort to educate, enable and encourage gardeners to donate to a local food pantry—a walk-in facility where families in need can go to get food.
According to AmpleHarvest.org, one out of six Americans needs food assistance but can't get fresh produce from the local food pantry. And, according to the US Department of Agriculture, Americans throw away one pound of food per person, per day. A sad statistic, considering there are many people who do not have food to eat. For more information on food waste read our Waste Not, Want Not blog post.
Currently there are 2,833 food pantries across the United States registered with AmpleHarvest.org. Find a food pantry near you then help reduce hunger and food waste in America.
AmpleHarvest.org even offers a free iPhone app, so you can easily and quickly find a local food pantry. In August 2010, AmpleHarvest.org was listed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a food rescue resource.
If you're new to gardening and planning your spring garden, consider planting extra so you can donate fresh, healthy produce to those who truly need help in obtaining nutritious foods for their families.

Celtics Eddie House Holds Finger Gun To McGrady's Head in Anger
Its that time of the year in the NBA. This is when teams are not quite where they want to be in the standings, players are tired, coaches are frustrated, and fewer fans are coming to the arenas. All of these things build up and create poor sportsmanship on the court. Parents shouldn't feel safe letting their kids watch a team like the Boston Celtics for instance. I like to use the word "thug players" which describes a basketball player, who is not interested in playing basketball. The thug player is just someone out to cause trouble. We saw this in Kevin Garnett, when his Celtic team traveled to Phoenix to take on the Suns. Before the cheap shot KGtook on another Suns player, when he just hit him in the groin area for no reason, Garnett had already did things earlier in the game that wasn't seen or called. Kevin Garnett has turned into a thug player recently and you can thank his Boston Celtic teammates for this.
Paul Pierce is the poster child for thug player in the NBA. This guy just comes to the court each day, so he can take cheap shots and physical attacks against his opponent. He has some of the worse sportsmanship I have seen in decades in the NBA. The guy should be behind bars some where in a jail or prison environment. He doesn't deserve the money and luxuries that come from playing in the NBA.
Pierce's teammate Kendrick Perkins is no better and has a lot of Paul Pierce's bad qualities. Pierce and Perkins are both thug players and Perkins has been taking cheap shots for years in the NBA. He is another player who laces up the sneakers each night, so he can just cause hurt and pain to other players in the NBA. Kendrick Perkins and Paul Pierce will both probably be in jail one day, paying for their physical attacks on other human beings. When you have two players like this on your team, it's bound to carry over to the other guys on the team. We see this in a insecure Kevin Garnett. He doesn't have a lot of confidence about himself, so he takes lessons from Kendrick Perkins and Paul Pierce and wants to follow in their footsteps. He must feel if he can take these same cheap shots on the court like they do, then he can fit in. Become part of a group and have something he didn't have while growing up. KG had a hard childhood and now needs help from others to survive in this world. Too bad he's becoming a thug, just like his partners in crime on the Boston Celtics team.
Shawne Williams Takes Cheap Shot at Artest
In New York, we saw Shawne Williams of the Knicks played an entire game of thug basketball. This guy would not stop taking the cheap shots at the Atlanta Hawks team Friday night in Atlanta. He was constantly trying to start trouble the whole game. He took numerous cheap shots at numerous players. Two shots were directed at Marvin Williams, but Marvin wouldn't stoop to his level. It was when Shawne Williams tried the 3rd cheap shot is when Marvin slapped his hand away, to say "this is enough, play basketball thug", but Shawne Williams didn't want to play ball. He just wanted to cause trouble and he accomplished his goal. After Marvin tried to teach him a lesson, the thug Shawne Williams came back in a bold stance against Marvin. This led to an altercation and both men got ejected. The NBA could care less about the Atlanta Hawks and didn't hand out the right punishment. They actually suspended Marvin Williams for 2 games and Shawne Williams for only 1 game. If they would have watched the whole 2nd half of that game, they would have probably suspended Shawne for 5 to 10 games. In typical fashion, the NBA only focused on the incident and didn't rewind the tape enough, to see what was really the problem at Philips Arena that night.
Kevin Garnett and Shawne Williams are two thugs playing in the NBA right now and neither athlete should be allowed to play in the next dozen games. The NBA had a chance to stand up and take action against these two thugs. KG did get ejected from the game, when he took a deliberate and non basketball shot at the Suns Channing Frye, but the League Officials took favortism into account with the Big Ticket Kevin Garnett. KG had the worse single action from the two NBA fights in Phoenix and Atlanta, yet he gets to play in his next game. Shawne Williams spent a large amount of time in Atlanta delievering cheap blows the whole game and will only sit out 1 game. While Marvin Williams took the abuse two times from Shawne Williams and didn't do a thing. The NBA is not rewarding Marvin Williams for him turning the other cheek. They are only holding him responsible for his action after the 3rd cheap shot was delievered in his direction, by this same NBA thug who plays for the New York Knicks. The two game suspension against Marvin Williams and the 0 games against KG is exactly why the NBA has repeat champions. They continue to show favoritism and do not judge things individually as they should.
I'm not sure what the Suns team plans to do with Kevin Garnett and the Boston Celtics, but the Atlanta Hawks will take care of their own. Shawne Williams return to Philips Arena in Atlanta will be a welcome sight. We will serve justice up right in the ATL and you can bet on that! Come on back to Hotlanta Mr. Shawne Williams, we eagerly await your return. We can show you up close and personal what we do to thugs down here. Shawne Williams time is coming, to be continued…

CAN AN iPHONE HANDLE EXTREME COLD TEMPERATURES?
Global warming seems to be causing colder and more extreme winters. Go figure. But, no matter what's happening to our climate over the long haul, in the short term cold temperatures can cause major iPhone problems.If you're wondering whether or not your iPhone can handle extreme cold temperatures, there are two points to consider. First, how cold is 'cold'? Second, are you talking about using or storing your phone? Here's the way it breaks down:
1. Extreme cold. For a Dolphins fan in Miami, sitting at a home game in December when the temperature dips down into the 50s might be considered extreme cold. For a Cheesehead in Green Bay, that would be downright balmy. Apple specs call out two important cold temperatures: -4º F and 32º F. Most of us would probably agree that -4º F is fairly extreme by almost any measure. However, we might argue about 32º F and this brings us to the second major point:2. Storage vs functionality. Apple says that iPhones can be stored in temperatures down to -4º F. However, the company doesn't recommend using the iPhone at temperatures below 32º F – and even areas in Florida and California can dip down that low during the occasional cold snap.
To get back to our original question of how well the iPhone handles extreme cold temperatures, if you're talking about surviving storage, the device handles the situation pretty well. If you're talking about chatting on your iPhone, it doesn't score such high marks. Some third party testing noted that sim cards started to report errors at 32º F. When the mercury dropped to 14º F, testers found that the iPhone shut down due to a "dead battery."This may not be a major problem for most users. But when a couple of reporters for TV station WTOP were checking out an ice sculpture show at a hotel in Forest Heights, Maryland their iPhones conked out while touring the 17º F display area.
Maybe Apple needs to shanghai some Finnish engineers from Nokia. You'd think that the Scandinavian company would have some excellent experience designing phones for cold weather. And, if you do take your iPhone into arctic temperatures, rewarm it slowly afterwards to avoid permanent damage. And, when navigating snowy or icy pathways, make sure your iPhone is in a LifeProof case. The shockproof, snow proof and waterproof protection will prove invaluable.Here's the summary:
• iPhones are sensitive to the cold
• Don't operate an iPhone below 32º F
• Don't store an iPhone below -4º F
• Warm cold iPhones slowly
• Protect against wet snow and spills with a LifeProof iPhone case

Head lice are tiny, barely visible insect-like animals ("arthropods") that may live on the head and cause itching. ("Lice" is plural; the singular is "louse.") Head lice may also live in the eyebrows, eyelashes, and beard. However, sometimes infestations in these areas are from a related species called pubic lice.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Head lice spread by personal contact and by sharing combs, brushes, hats, and other personal items.
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition.
Risk factors include:
Symptoms include:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. The doctor will examine your head and scalp for lice and lice eggs (called "nits").
Do not self-diagnose and self-treat head lice. Some treatments can cause irritation and should only be used by people who have the infestation.
Treating head lice involves removing eggs and killing lice so that they can't continue to lay eggs. Treatment may be difficult because in some regions lice have become resistant to many of the commonly used medicines. Some experts recommend that treatment be given only when live adult lice are seen.
Methods include:
Most cases of head lice can be treated with over-the-counter preparations. However, there is increasing resistance to
the medicines permethrin and pyrethrin in the United States.
There are other treatments that may be effective, like herbal remedies that contain coconut oil and anise.
In certain cases, your doctor may prescribe lindane (Kwell, Scabene). Lindane is neurotoxic and carries a black box warning. Follow the instructions carefully. It should only be prescribed to patients who are unable to take other medicines or who have not responded to them. According to the Food and Drug Administration's warning, lindane can rarely cause serious side effects, including seizure and death. Those especially susceptible are infants, the elderly, children and adults weighing under 110 lbs, and individuals with other skin conditions. Lindane is toxic and should not be overused. Patients are given small amounts (1-2 oz) of the shampoo or lotion and instructed to apply a very thin layer and not to reapply. For more information, visit the
US Food and Drug Administration website
If you or your child are diagnosed as having head lice, follow your doctor's
Lice are common, especially in children. While no records are kept for accurate counts, some estimates are that as many as 10-15 million persons annually develop head lice in the United States. To prevent outbreaks of head lice:
