Unordered Sample
Posted by
Yesterday I received samples of Silkies Enriche Ageless Moisturizer. They say I will receive more in 4 weeks at a cost of $14.99 plus S&H.
I never ordered this sample and don't want the other but I can't get in touch with them no matter what I try.
I know for certain I did not order the sample as the address is not my normal address.

How did they get your payment info? If you did not give it to them you may be the victim of identity theft. Better check your credit for any hanky panky. If they did put it on one of your credit cards file a chargeback ASAP and return the stuff with a receipt requested to the address it came from. Thanks for letting us know about these guys. (VH)
Slimjim on 01/24/2008:
Payment comes to my mind first too. Are you actually paying for these. Call them immediately and see if they have a card of yours on file. Like super said, identity theft is rampant now and I'm sure it won't be just this you'll be seeing charges for. If they say they have, ask them for the issuing bank and the last four digits.
Suusan B. on 01/24/2008:
The customer service number for Silkies Enriche is 1-866-549-3059. You can also contact them via their website at www.silkiesenriche.com, click on Contact Us and then Email Us. If you are positive that you didn't fall for their "Free Sample - Retail Value $39.99 (s&h $4.95) offer, then you need to immediately contact your credit card company and file a dispute - - and be very concerned about the possibility you are a victim of identify theft.
Slimjim on 01/24/2008:
This may just be a marketing ploy too. Why would they send samples to someone on a reoccurring auto ship plan. Read over the material again very closely and if you do call, do not give out any card or banking info.
FoggyOne on 01/25/2008:
If they send you anything without you ordering it (make sure you didn't order it by filling out some "Free Vacation" post card somewhere - there is fine print on these things to switch phone companies, etec), the product is considered a gift and you don't owe anything. You don't even need to communicate with them.
slimjim... is right - never give them any financial information - even if the say "it is to verify your account", do NOT give it to them.
Sousan b is right too - if they have your credit card # call the CC company and dispute all charges from Silkies Enriche Ageless Moisturizer.
Dirtyclothes on 03/07/2008:
I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I never filled out a request for a free sample. I am a beauty consultant and am not the least bit interested in trying a different product. After much dialing & time on hold I did reach a person, cancelled the account and they sent me a return shipping label. "Patrick" insisted they don't randomly send products out and that everything sent is due to request and that if I didn't request, then someone else must have requested for me. Big Fat Lie!!, based on what I'm seeing on the internet. Before I seal the box up & send it off, I'm registering a complaint with the Post Office.
yorkiesuess on 04/14/2008:
My mother, age 84, received an "unsolicited gift" just like dirty clothes. She also received a bill that said past due for 19.94. I know she did not order the item as she was out of the country traveling for four months. She also does not have a computer or know how to use the internet.
Totally unsolicited, how many widows on fixed income are getting this product just mailed to them with a follow up bill. They don't know what to do so they freak out and pay the bill that says PAST DUE.
What a total scam.

Sent Product That I Didn't Order
Posted by
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA -- I received an offer for a free Eye Wrinkle Stick which indicated that more products would be forthcoming if I chose to get them. I am under the impression that there was no mention of them sending a tube of their moisturizer. When the package came both products were in there along with a bill for $19.94. The product was offered as being free. Now, I didn't order their moisturizer and don't want it. What should I do?
I feel like it was false advertising using the U.S. Postal Service to sell their product in this way.
I noticed that there are a number of complaints for this company and please advise me of my rights because now I don't want either one.

Did Not Order Product, But Continue To Be Billed
Posted by
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA -- I ordered a free sample of their product, which I did not use.
I next, received a larger amount of the product, which I DID NOT order. I called the company and told them that I did NOT order and would not use, but would be happy to return, but not pay the postage at my expense.
I was told that a postage label would be sent to me within two weeks, so that I could return the product.
It has been a month and I have no label, But I do have a bill for over $25.00. I have, today, attempted to contact by phone, with NO success.
By ordering a free sample, one will be sent other products with no way to stop the billing.

When you gave them your card number for the free sample you also agreed to sign up for additional shipments. Go back to their web page and read the terms.
tnchuck100 on 05/30/2008:
These scams are quite common. If you had bothered to read the terms and conditions you would have found that "doing nothing" would result in periodic shipments.
I just checked their web site and the "FREE" offer has apparently been pulled as it was "page not found".
Nothing is FREE.

when will consumers take responsibility for their own actions? I am sure the requirements were clearly laid out. such as time to cancel and when. if you did not cancel in a timely fashion, then they took it you liked their products.
I dought what was said here made them close.

Bilking Seniors
Posted by
My 84 year old mother received unsolicited product from Silkies and a bill showing PAST DUE for $19.94. I noticed that a couple of other reviewers had a similar experience with their senior loved ones. I sent an email thanking them for the "free gift".
Shame on this company for taking advance of senior women, probably mostly widows and on fixed incomes to boot!
It is marketing ploys like this that give the entire industry a black eye. How many old ladies in the USA have freaked out getting a past due bill for $19.94 for a product they did not want much less order. I hate to say it but I would be willing to bet that most senior ladies probably pay the bill.
Next step the BBB and TV consumer reporters, this company must be stopped from deceiving seniors!

Perhaps your mother requested a 'free sample' of Silkies? Doing so creates a contract to receive further shipments of the product. I think we do the elderly a disservice if we portray them ALL to be infirm or vulnerable to swindles. There are a large number of octogenarians who still competently practice law, medicine, or run a business. I suggest that your mother contact Silkies and request a copy (if any) of the alleged contract (requested 'free' sample). Good luck!
nitemom on 05/01/2008:
I am having the same problem. I received a post card and on the card it stated that if I sent it back I would receive a free SAMPLE of the cream, I looked all over the card to see if there was a hidden trial offer or anything similar and there was nothing. They don't let you know till later on when you get the sample that they're going to send you something that you never agreed to or asked for and they send this information in an envelope filled with other offers so it can be easy to miss. This company needs to stop their deceptive marketing tactics.

Mail Order Scam
Posted by
Mama Mia
RICE LAKE, WISCONSIN -- This company is a scam!! If you send for a sample, in a week or 10 days you will receive another package UNORDERED with an invoice for payment and further orders will be sent. If you try to contact the company it is all automated telephone service and their guarantee states they will pay the postage... with no info on how that is done. Then the customer has to pay or continue to be billed and receive future shipments.

It's not quite a scam. You failed to read the terms before ordering the 'free' sample. Go back to their web pages then click on the sample link. Look carefully to find the terms link. It's very small. Open that link and read it. There you will find clearly stated that ordering the sample places you in a program to ship more products. A new federal law requires that all such 'free sample' programs must have the terms placed prominently on web pages.
DebtorBasher on 07/01/2008:
This has been going on for years...but if you read the fine print of those "free samples" you will see that you are also agreeing for future purchases. I just sent them a letter and told them I didn't want anymore and they stopped sending them.
Anonymous on 07/01/2008:
You did agree to the auto ship program so you may loose a credit card dispute. Best to just send the stuff back and get your card re-issued as they will just keep re-hitting it every month. People need to stop falling for these "free" scams, very seldom is anything truly free with one of these sleazy operations.

Unsolicited Products
Posted by
Today I also received skin products from this company that I did not order. I do not intend to use them nor to spend postage sending them back. Some years ago after receiving many complaints from citizens complaining about getting unsolicited products in the mail demanding payment for such,the Government declared the receiver was not obliged to return nor pay for such products.
If they send a letter demanding payment I will ask them to send me the postage if not I will keep the product for 2 months and if no compliance I will throw the box out.

If it came via USPS all you need to do is mark the unopened package "REFUSED - RETURN TO SENDER". The post office will return it to them. Hopefully, postage due for the return trip.
Principissa on 02/15/2008:
I agree with chuck. If you keep it they will send you bills and put you into collections. If you mark return to sender, the post office will cover the shipping since you refuse the package. I would also send them a letter certified/return receipt demanding that they stop sending you things.
Mrs. V on 02/15/2008:
This is a phone number that others have had luck in using if you need it:

urfune on 02/25/2008:
I also received the products unsolicited TODAY. I called their number, pressed 3 for returns and stayed on the line until they offered a customer service representative... a long wait. Then I waited 20 more minutes for the rep who said they would promptly cancell the account and send me a a pre-paid shipping label in about 2 weeks. Will let you know.
Grannie2 on 03/30/2008:
I also received an unsolicited package from this company. I called the Attorney Generals Office and they gave me the phone number for the state bunco squad and asked me to report them. If we all did that we could shut them down. Every time I try to e-mail them my letter won't go through because it always asks for a valid e-mail address. I did call them and was threatened by the man who answered. I may be old but I'm a stubborn Irishman and I refuse to pay for something I didn't order.

Unordered Merchandise
Posted by
CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA -- In March I requested and received a sample of Silkies enriche. About 3 wks. later a second item of the same arrived (same size). I have been billed several times for this 2nd unordered product. I could return it, but refuse to pay the postage and go to the trouble of packaging it. A telephone # included with the bill is an automated message that does not give me the option of addressing the problem. How can I get them out of my hair???

write them a letter, and tell them, any unordered merchandise will NOT be paid for and it will be considered as a GIFT.
Kmikey on 06/13/2007:
Thank you for that advice--will do. I was hoping that ignoring them long enough would put an end to it, but that is not the case. Thank you, will get on it today.
lbeach on 07/13/2007:
I just received the package today with billing for $19.94. Would never order this. Was originally a freebie and guess they started sending. Seems there are a lot of complaints on them. Also this might be useful:
1. If you receive merchandise that you didn't order, you have a legal right to keep it as a free gift.
2. You have no legal obligation to notify the seller. However, it is a good idea to write a letter to the company stating that you didn't order the item and, therefore, you have a legal right to keep it for free. This may discourage the seller from sending you bills or dunning notices, or it may help clear up an honest error. Send your letter by certified mail. Keep the return receipt and a copy of the letter for your records. You may need it later.
3. Write the seller and offer to return the merchandise, provided the seller pays for postage and handling. Give the seller a specific and reasonable amount of time (say 30 days) to pick up the merchandise or arrange to have it returned at no expense to you. Tell the seller that you reserve the right to keep the merchandise or dispose of it after the specified time has passed.
Kmikey on 07/14/2007:
I wrote and told them I would return unordered product if they sent postage and packing material--which they did. I liked the product well enough, but would never buy from a company with these tactics.
M Kinkade on 09/01/2007:
My 82 year old grandmother received a box a few weeks ago, and just threw it away, thinking "I didn't order this." She just received a bill "past due notice." I HATE these predatory companies - imagine how many people just pay the bill because they are intimidated. It is shameful! Most people do not know how to refuse shipments - you can just write "return to sender" or "refused" on the outside of the package and put it in your mailbox for the postman to return it.
There needs to be a link higher up on search engines for the fraud this is.
sallygal on 03/16/2008:
The company that owns Silkies Enriche is: HCI Direct, Inc., 3050 Tillman Drive, Bensalem, PA 19020 (phone number 1-866-549-3059)(information available under "Legal" on the Silkies Enriche web site). Their practices are continuing (I also recently received this unsolicited, unwanted product) - suggest making a formal complaint to the Better Business Bureau.
dbwhitt on 04/01/2008:
I agree with the complaints about the unethical marketing scam that this company is using. My wife just received the package - and the accompanying bill - last week. But I have a problem writing to them to get them to rectify this problem. If I write to them, then I have put out MY time doing something that I shouldn't have to due to begin with. Additionally, I am not overly excited about spending the postage to send my letter to them. I'm not a lazy person, a prude, or a butt, yet I fail to see why I should be the one making efforts and spending my own money (postage, envelope, etc.) to tell a company not to send me their product??? Am I being unreasonable? I'm just wondering if a state attorney general has had this product or the accompanying bill delivered to his or her home address? Wouldn't that be interesting?
cytokat on 06/28/2008:
It says right on the free sample offer that after 4 weeks they will ship you more unless you cancel. Of course they don't give you any easy way to do that before you receive the shipment, but it can be sent back and you just write "cancel" across the invoice. Lots of companies do things this way. It's annoying, but that's how they get customers.
gmal42 on 08/19/2008:
In 11/07 ordered free sample of Silkies Enriche used it a few times. Didn`t like it so it is setting on my dresser gathering dust. They started billing me 19.94 ? I thought it was free?? If I liked it I was to order more. Now they are threating me !! got a letter from "Retrieval Masters creditors bureau? If I had 19.94 I would buy milk for my grandchildern... I am going to send a letter to B.B.B.

SandRidge Permian Trust Announces Distribution Of $0.58 Per Unit
SANDRIDGE PERMIAN TRUST (NYSE: PER) today announced a quarterly distribution for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 (which primarily relates to production attributable to the Trust's interests from December 1, 2011 through February 29, 2012) of $30.5 million, or $0.581742 per unit. The Trust makes distributions on a quarterly basis approximately 60 days after the end of each quarter. The distribution is expected to occur on or before May 30, 2012 to holders of record as of the close of business on May 15, 2012.
The Trust owns royalty interests created from interests held by SandRidge Energy, Inc. ("SandRidge") and its subsidiaries in oil and natural gas properties in the Central Basin Platform of the Permian Basin in Andrews County, Texas and is entitled to receive proceeds from the sale of production attributable to the royalty interests. As described in the Trust's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the amount of the quarterly distributions is expected to fluctuate from quarter to quarter, depending on the proceeds received by the Trust as a result of actual production volumes, oil and natural gas prices and the amount and timing of the Trust's administrative expenses, among other factors. Although there is no assurance of any minimum distribution in any quarterly period, during the subordination period (as described in the Trust's filings), holders of Common Units will be entitled to receive an amount up to the "Subordination Threshold" (which varies from quarter to quarter) prior to any distribution being made for that quarter in respect of the Subordinated Units, all of which are held by SandRidge. If the amount available for distribution in any quarterly period is sufficient to distribute an amount equal to the Subordination Threshold to the holders of all units (including the Subordinated Units), any additional balance is distributed to holders of all units pro rata, up to the amount of the Incentive Threshold for the quarter. Trust units are entitled to receive 50% of any cash available for distribution in excess of the Incentive Threshold for the quarter.

Orlando Etcheberrigaray and Klaus Matuschka of EMa Arquitectos teamed with construction company Nautilus Constructora to design and build an efficient and simple getaway for the clients. The building is constructed on piers and sits gently on the site in order to not disturb the natural flora and fauna of the environment. Actually, the home is planned around an existing Quillaja saponaria tree (Soap Bark Tree), which is native to this area of Chile. The living area and the sleeping areas of the home are oriented around the views of the valley below and incorporates natural lighting and solar energy without losing privacy.
The structure of the cabin is made from steel, which allowed for fast and efficient construction. Tongue and groove jointed wood covers the exterior of the home and a dark tint was applied to create a rich exterior skin. Plywood was treated as well and installed as an interior wall covering. This was a very economic decision in order to install a material that was inexpensive and durable. The materiality of wood continues throughout the home and onto the deck before it is interrupted by the rectilinear pool that is oriented to match the site. The volumes and simplistic geometry of the home provides a very comfortable environment for the clients as they can focus on the natural surroundings, which are brought in through the glazed northwest walls.

From red-light districts to high-end "escort services," this is an up-to-the-minute look at the age old battle against prostitution.
"The oldest profession in the world" shows no signs of slowing down today. But in the age of AIDS the nature of the business has changed, and sex for pay is taking on many new, semi-legal guises.
AMERICAN JUSTICE® takes an unflinching look at the state of prostitution in America today, from high-class call girls to the traditional streetwalker. See footage of actual busts, and discover how the emphasis has shifted to include the "John" as well as the prostitute.

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

It is nearly spring and time for some cleaning work. Looking at some of the pages about Buddhism on Wikipedia, they seem to contain many factual errors, spelling mistakes, etc. For example this page:
Another monk was thinking of how to improve the situation but ... "The problem is I am reluctant to much time into it because as soon as you've updated a page some know-nothing comes along and vandalises it according to his own prejudices."
There was already one call to do something about it on this blog:

Most cosmetology applications take one to 2 years to finish, and aspiring licensed cosmetologists are usually required to decide on a cosmetology specialty as their profession focus.
The training must relate to an occupation or skill which is in demand. Any device used in the practice of cosmetology should be approved by the Board. Each cosmetological institution which exacts a charge for the instructing of any department of cosmetology is a faculty of cosmetology and shall provide cosmetology scholarships for high school students. A person holding a beauty shop license may maintain an establishment in which any practice of cosmetology is performed. Even though she had her cosmetology license, she also wanted a college degree.

I am so thrilled to have found this birthday theme. Everything is just so cute! The only gripe I have with this theme is that the mylar balloons dont quite match the centerpiece colors. It's to the point that I might consider sending them (the balloons) back and just decorating with plain ones. Otherwise, such a sweet product for sweet baby boys!

I loved this theme! My little girl's party was a big hit, and everyone loved the decorations. I knew I wanted a giraffe theme, and I came across tons of safari/jungle stuff; but they weren't quite what I wanted. I did want something a little more feminine, but i couldn't pass up this giraffe, it was just too cute and adorable! The little ladybug did add that girly accent. The other giraffes I came across just didn't compare, even the ones with pink accents.

- Preprint (4) (remove)

- A bijection between the d-dimensional simplices with distances in {1,2} and the partitions of d+1 (2005)
- We give a construction for the d-dimensional simplices with all distances in {1,2} from the set of partitions of d+1.
- On the characteristic of integral point sets in $\mathbb{E}^m$ (2005)
- We generalise the definition of the characteristic of an integral triangle to integral simplices and prove that each simplex in an integral point set has the same characteristic. This theorem is used for an efficient construction algorithm for integral point sets. Using this algorithm we are able to provide new exact values for the minimum diameter of integral point sets.
- A note on Erdös-Diophantine graphs and Diophantine carpets (2005)
- A Diophantine figure is a set of points on the integer grid $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ where all mutual Euclidean distances are integers. We also speak of Diophantine graphs. The vertices are points in $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ (the coordinates)and the edges are labeled with the distance between the two adjacent vertices, which is integral. In this language a Diophantine figure is a complete Diophantine graph. Two Diophantine graphs are equivalent if they only differ by translation or rotation of vertices. Due to a famous theorem of Erdös and Anning there are complete Diophantine graphs which are not contained in larger ones. We call them Erdös-Diophantine graphs. A special class of Diophantine graphs are Diophantine carpets. These are planar triangulations of a subset of the integer grid. We give an effective construction for Erdös-Diophantine graphs and characterize the chromatic number of Diophantine carpets.
- Integral point sets over finite fields (2007)
- We consider point sets in the affine plane GF(q)^2 where each Euclidean distance of two points is an element of GF(q). These sets are called integral point sets and were originally defined in m-dimensional Euclidean spaces. We determine their maximal cardinality I(GF(q),2). For arbitrary commutative rings R instead of GF(q) or for further restrictions as no three points on a line or no four points on a circle we give partial results. Additionally we study the geometric structure of the examples with maximum cardinality.

Readers of this blog know well my passion for handcrafted, independently-designed, quality items. Just a quick peek at my Links and you can see that I have quite a list of favourites. One of my favourite things to do is share my handmade discoveries, such as through my Thrifty365 review posts
Today on Yahoo, I came across this article that both saddened and angered me. It discusses how Urban Outfitters has shamefully stolen a wonderful idea from an independent designer.
Right: design by Urban Outfitters
I do not, nor will I ever, condone the theft of ideas. There are many things one can say about intellectual property theft, but for me, it just boils down to it being a very nasty and calculating thing to do. This situation is especially repugnant to me as these chain stores have enormous legal departments to protect their interests, whilst many independent designers have very little legal recourse available to them.
As a creative person, I am often inspired by others' work, from large chain stores to independent shops to individual artists. However, I always do my very best to interpret the design and not copy. Case in point, my scissors skirt:
As of today, I WILL NOT:
- Shop at Urban Outfitters or any of its sister companies, Anthropologie being the most well-known
- Purchase any thrifted / second-hand items manufactured by these companies
- Wear or use items manufactured by these companies
- Initiate an awareness campaign to spread the word about supporting independent businesses to the best of my ability
- Continue to support local and independently-owned businesses
- Encourage people to support their local and independently-owned businesses
- Encourage people to purchase handcrafted and independently-designed items.

From pre-historic man's attempts at clothing and shelter to the latest spacesuits, it's an extraordinary journey through the history of innovation as applied to the most important task of all. Military experts reveal the secrets of survival in the worst conditions, and we'll get an up-close look at state-of-the-art survival gear, like that being brought to the International Space Station.

The 4 Most Disgusting Energy Drinks Sold in America

Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Most of us have experienced a time in our lives when we needed an extra jolt of energy, be it during a college all-nighter or a post-insomnia morning at the office. It's during these times, when we're most sleep deprived, vulnerable, and desperate, that energy drink companies hope their marketing will reel us in with promises of an out-of-this-world energy boost.
Any consumer with even a passing awareness of marketing tricks and ploys knows that no product will actually give you "wings" or any other superhuman traits. And yet, according to a recent New York Times report, "Energy drinks are the fastest-growing part of the beverage industry, with sales in the United States reaching more than $10 billion in 2012."
Although coffee is said to have the same metabolic effect as many energy drinks – and is often significantly cheaper, to boot – shoppers, especially young shoppers, are being lured in by promises of special recipes that can do more for the brain and body than mere caffeine alone. The Times report looks at how energy drink websites are filled to the brim with dubious pseudo-science that, combined with slick marketing and packaging, convince hoards of young Americans to spend a good amount of money on substances that are no better than good old-fashioned coffee or NoDoz, and in fact are filled with many useless ingredients. What's more, some energy drinks can be dangerous if consumed in excess. This is all a sign of a "generational shift in what people drink, and reflects a successful campaign to convince consumers, particularly teenagers, that the drinks provide a mental and physical edge."
To drive the point home, let's take a look at some of the more questionable energy drinks on the market.
1. 5-Hour Energy
The fact that this headline, from a November issue of The Week, even needed to exist should tell you something: "Can 5-Hour Energy drink kill you?"
The answer to that question is "maybe." Though there is no proof that drinking 5-Hour Energy can lead to death, the FDA has reportedly received 13 reports over four years citing the energy "shot" as a potential cause of death. The agency has also received 92 reports of "adverse effects" that cite the drink, some of them involving heart attacks and one a "spontaneous abortion." There's speculation that the drink's spectacularly high doses of caffeine – one tiny, 2-ounce shot is estimated to have twice as much caffeine as a cup of coffee – could be to blame for any of these potential deaths or injuries, since some people are more sensitive to the drug than others.
While we're on the subject of caffeine, here's a somewhat disturbing fact: because energy drinks are labeled and sold as "drinks," they are not required by the FDA to disclose the amount of caffeine they contain.
To top it off, 5-Hour Energy's claim that drinkers will experience "no crash later" appears to be bull. On the packaging for the product, that claim is followed by an asterisk noting that "no crash means no sugar crash." Well duh: 5-Hour Energy doesn't contain any sugar. But it may still lead to an energy crash. A recent study conducted by a Tufts University researcher found that nearly a quarter of participants who drank 5-Hour Energy experienced a "moderately severe crash that left them extremely tired and in need of rest, another drink or some other action."
2. Red Bull
Ah, Red Bull: the official drink of dorm room cram sessions and dance club vodka cocktails everywhere. (Also, this guy.)

Could somebody tell me something about teachers of these tradition?

April 30 - Guardian Analytics, a leader in behavior-based fraud prevention solutions, has announced the general availability of FraudMAP Mobile, the company's latest fraud prevention innovation, purpose-built to identify suspicious mobile banking activity. The first and only solution to use anomaly detection across the triple play of mobile banking - SMS, mobile Web and mobile applications - FraudMAP Mobile provides a critical layer of security that protects financial institutions and their mobile banking users. It also provides the anomaly detection capabilities expected by the FFIEC for all electronic banking channels.
Mobile banking is growing rapidly and represents a strategic opportunity for financial institutions to connect with customers. More than 19 million consumers use mobile banking now, expanding to 44 million users by 2013, according to the Aite Group. But security concerns have financial institutions and consumers on edge - 88 percent of financial institutions believe mobile banking poses a significant risk (Aite Group) while the number one reason consumers don't adopt mobile banking is fear about their security (Javelin).
Cybercriminals are escalating their attacks on mobile phones using SMS messaging, malicious mobile applications disguised as legitimate application, and criminal-controlled Wi-Fi networks. Experts predict their activity will increase in 2012.
"The rise of mobile banking introduces a whole new set of security issues for financial institutions and their customers," said Julie McNelley, research director in the Retail Banking Practice at Aite Group. "A mobile phone in the hands of a criminal provides them with access to all of the victim's personal information that can not only lead to mobile banking fraud, but fraud in other channels as well as identity theft. To prevent this from happening, banks can't rely on the device for security - they need to proactively prevent fraud before it occurs."
About FraudMAP Mobile
FraudMAP Mobile provides financial institutions with the most advanced and effective approach to protecting mobile and tablet banking users. Built using the same innovative behavioral analytics that protects online account holders at over 150 financial institutions, FraudMAP Mobile is the first anomaly detection solution purpose-built for the mobile banking channel. FraudMAP Mobile proactively alerts financial institutions to suspicious mobile behavior across all mobile experiences, including SMS banking, mobile Web banking and downloadable mobile applications. FraudMAP Mobile provides the following:
A layer of security separate from the device providing transparent monitoring and analysis of all mobile banking activity for all mobile users;
Using FraudMAP Mobile, financial institutions can proactively prevent fraud in the mobile and other banking channels and warn customers of potential identity theft. With the confidence that the channel is proactively monitored and protected, financial institutions can also confidently expand their mobile banking products and services.
"Consumers want more convenience and more from mobile banking," said Terry Austin, CEO of Guardian Analytics. "To stay competitive, financial institutions will need to rapidly advance their mobile offerings and FraudMAP Mobile provides the protections they need to manage the risk of more users and more financial management and transactional capabilities."
About Guardian Analytics
Guardian Analytics is the pioneer and leading provider of behavior-based fraud prevention solutions for online and mobile banking. With 150+ customers, more financial institutions trust Guardian's SaaS solutions to protect their clients' assets and conform to FFIEC expectations for anomaly detection than any other solution.
