Visual Learning: Cone in the Cob
Images, photos, and pictures stimulate the mind. For the viewer, they offer a chance to connect and question. They also offer potential for play and imagination, and pulling the observer into purposeful messages.
Most often, newspaper and magazine readers take a quick glance at photos and their captions. With this YES! lesson plan, you and your students can luxuriate—and pause—to truly understand an image, its message, and why it's interesting (or not).
Download this lesson plan as a PDF (730kb)
Step One: What do you notice? (before the facts)
Ask your students to make sense of the photograph by trusting their instincts of observation and inference. In doing so, the photograph offers possibilities and interpretations beyond a typical reading where the reader glances at the picture to reinforce their interpretation of the picture's title or caption. Do not introduce any facts, captions, or other written words outside of the image. You may hear: lots of blankets, bed, black dog, sleeping bag, plastic bin, shelf.
Step Two: What are you wondering? (thinking about the facts)
After you've heard what your students are noticing, you'll probably hear the peppering of questions: Does someone live here? What is the tent-like item draping down? Why are there so many blankets? Is that camping gear on top of the shelf? This is a good time to reveal the photo's caption, accompanying quote, and facts about the actual situation. Watch how the conversation shifts from what they believe to be true to discerning the facts about the photo.
- Photo caption:
- Photo Facts:
The heavy blankets and netting are atop a built-in bed platform in one of many cob houses in the Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage of northeastern Missouri. Communities like Dancing Rabbit value practices, such as Natural Building, that are based largely on minimizing negative ecological impact and using locally available, renewable resources. They believe that it is functional, enjoyable, and healthy to live a lifestyle that is alternative to the U.S. status quo.
Cob, a material commonly used for house frames in Natural Building, is a mixture of straw, clay, and sand similar to adobe. Lumps of cob are applied wet to build up a wall, bench, or as thermal mass around stoves.
A "living roof" allows plants to grow on top of a roof. Soil is placed over a waterproof membrane on an extra-sturdy roof. The soil and plants can help a building cool in summer and warm in winter by evapo-transpiration, thermal mass, and insulation.
The fabric tent can trap body heat during cold winter months. This natural method of keeping warm has proven to be very effective, raising the temperature from 40 degrees to 60 in just 15 minutes.
- Other resources around the image:
EXPLORE: Dancing Rabbit
LEARN: Building a Hand-Made Cob House
READ: Year of Mud
Step Three: What next? (jumping off the facts)
Learning more about a photo leads to bigger questions and an opportunity to discuss broader issues and perspectives.
- What kinds of skills would you learn by building your own house? Is building a house something you'd be willing to try? Why or why not?
- What are some of the natural resources available for building and creating in your community? What lifestyle would you have if you were limited to using only natural resources available in your own region?
- What
does "the U.S. status quo" look like
to you? Is it something you're
happy to be part of or would you prefer to live differently? Could you see
yourself living in a community like Dancing Rabbit?

Aston Martin to field near-stock Rapide at Nürburgring 24
by Noah Joseph (RSS feed) on Apr 6th, 2010 at 9:28AM
Round-the-clock endurance races typically demand the participation of three or even four-man teams, taking shifts as the sun rises and falls on the circuit. The car they're driving, though, doesn't usually have the capacity to carry the entire team. But as if to emphasize once again the true sporting nature of its latest product, Aston Martin will be taking on the competition this year at the Nürburgring 24 in a damn-near-bone-stock Rapide. In addition to its innumerable victories in Le Mans-class racing, Aston has had great success at the 'Ring in the SP8 category, which it has... Read More

A fountain of water stands up in the air only 100 feet away and we can make out the size of the about 50 feet long animal in the water, as it glides slowly forward for a while.
Then the captain shouts "diving!" and the whale arches his back, lifts his big fluke (his tail) and disappears again into the deep accompanied by the sounds of ecstatic children, clicking cameras and an applauding international audience.
Whales spark emotional reactions in just about everyone. More than any animal alive, they are used as a metaphor for our planet's fragile ecological balance.
Louise Thompson from England is totally in love with the big creatures. In fact, they are the main reason for her holidaying in Norway.
– I can't explain it, there's something magical about whales. Ever since seeing a documentary about whales on TV as a child, I've dreamt of seeing whales in their natural element. This safari has been a fantastic experience.
The sperm whales hold the world record among the earth's mammals in diving. They can dive down as deep as more than one mile, so it is unlikely you will be seeing the same whale twice on the same trip.
However, chances seeing at least two other whales are pretty good, as the safaris are arranged in an areas known as the whales' lavish food chambers. Here thousands of whales come to feed on squid and fish.
The most common whale to spot during the summer season is the sperm whale, but if you are lucky you may also see pilot whales, minke whales, humpbacks, dolphins and killer whales. You will also enjoy the magnificent scenery, lots of fresh sea air, and natural surroundings guaranteed to make a lasting impression.
Companies offering whale safaris:
Where:Stø and Andenes in Vesterålen (in the county of Nordland)
When:From mid-May to mid-September
Whalesafari Ltd.: From NOK 890 for adults and NOK 570 for children. Winter season, NOK 990 for adults, NOK 690 for children.Sea Safari Andenes: From NOK 995 for adults and NOK 800 for children.
All of these companies have a whale guarantee - if you are unlucky and do not get to see whales on your first trip, you are eligible for a new trip free of charge or a refund. Please note that this may not apply or be limited for the winter season, depending on company policy.

Mexico City (CNN) -- At least 26 workers died in a blaze Tuesday at a Mexican gas facility near the Texas border, the state oil company Pemex said.
Investigators were working to determine what caused the accident, which occurred near Reynosa, Mexico.
Four of the dead were employees of the state oil company and 22 were contractors, Pemex said.
The fire, which occurred after a blast at the facility, had been extinguished as of Tuesday afternoon, the company said in a Twitter post.
"The fire is extinguished, and the situation is under control," Pemex said.
Some pipes and valves were damaged, Pemex said.
At the facility, gas is processed from Mexico's Burgos field.
In recent years, explosions and fires have been reported after illegal tapping of the state oil company's pipelines.
CNN's Rene Hernandez, Eduardo Aragon, Claudia Dominguez and Nick Parker contributed to this report.

Has anyone tried putting frost mages on the adds? And can someone explain the little nerf that 3.1.1 added?
My guild has been trying it with 4 people on each side handling adds... resulting in a huge dps loss on the heart. Perhaps with frost mages the adds can be managable with just a mage on each side (popping water elemental each time) and a warlock or boomkin helper?

Good hose. Bought it as a gift. Already have one. Been holding up pretty good. Flexible. Only complaint, it leaves black marks on your hands after you are done. Anyone knows how to get rid of it. Do I have to clean it?
Berkley, MI
This quality air hose was on sale (internet)for $24.96, which was a great price. It is made in the US, which is definitely another plus... another quality Craftsman product.

Infinitely better than the plastic/PVC hose that came with my new 26-gallon Craftsman air compressor. The original was like trying to coil a 2x4 - the new rubber hose is a joy! If you're buying a compressor, go ahead and get a useable hose - you'll be glad you did.

Drug Companies & Doctors: A Story of Corruption
Side Effects: A Prosecutor, a Whistleblower, and a Bestselling Antidepressant on Trial
Our Daily Meds: How the Pharmaceutical Companies Transformed Themselves into Slick Marketing Machines and Hooked the Nation on Prescription Drugs
Shyness: How Normal Behavior Became a Sickness
Recently Senator Charles Grassley, ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, has been looking into financial ties between the pharmaceutical industry and the academic physicians who largely determine the market value of prescription drugs. He hasn't had to look very hard.
Take the case of Dr. Joseph L. Biederman, professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and chief of pediatric psychopharmacology at Harvard's Massachusetts General Hospital. Thanks largely to him, children as young as two years old are now being diagnosed with bipolar disorder and treated with a cocktail of powerful drugs, many of which were not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for that purpose and none of which were approved for children below ten years of age.
Legally, physicians may use drugs that have already been approved for a particular purpose for any other purpose they choose, but such use should be based on good published scientific evidence. That seems not to be the case here. Biederman's own studies of the drugs he advocates to treat childhood bipolar disorder were, as The New York Times summarized the opinions of its expert sources, "so small and loosely designed that they were largely inconclusive."1
In June, Senator Grassley revealed that drug companies, including those that make drugs he advocates for childhood bipolar disorder, had paid Biederman $1.6 million in consulting and speaking fees between 2000 and 2007. Two of his colleagues received similar amounts. After the revelation, the president of the Massachusetts General Hospital and the chairman of its physician organization sent a letter to the hospital's physicians expressing not shock over the enormity of the conflicts of interest, but sympathy for the beneficiaries: "We know this is an incredibly painful time for these doctors and their families, and our hearts go out to them."
Or consider Dr. Alan F. Schatzberg, chair of Stanford's psychiatry department and president-elect of the American Psychiatric Association. Senator Grassley found that Schatzberg controlled more than $6 million worth of stock in Corcept Therapeutics, a company he cofounded that is testing mifepristone—the abortion drug otherwise known as RU-486—as a treatment for psychotic depression. At the same time, Schatzberg was the principal investigator on a National Institute of Mental Health grant that included research on mifepristone for this use and he was coauthor of three papers on the subject. In a statement released in late June, Stanford professed to see nothing amiss in this arrangement, although a month later, the university's counsel announced that it was temporarily replacing Schatzberg as principal investigator "to eliminate any misunderstanding."
Perhaps the most egregious case exposed so far by Senator Grassley is that of Dr. Charles B. Nemeroff, chair of Emory University's department of psychiatry and, along with Schatzberg, coeditor of the influential Textbook of Psychopharmacology.2 Nemeroff was the principal investigator on a five-year $3.95 million National Institute of Mental Health grant—of which $1.35 million went to Emory for overhead—to study several drugs made by GlaxoSmithKline. To comply with university and government regulations, he was required to disclose to Emory income from GlaxoSmithKline, and Emory was required to report amounts over $10,000 per year to the National Institutes of Health, along with assurances that the conflict of interest would be managed or eliminated.
But according to Senator Grassley, who compared Emory's records with those from the company, Nemeroff failed to disclose approximately $500,000 he received from GlaxoSmithKline for giving dozens of talks promoting the company's drugs. In June 2004, a year into the grant, Emory conducted its own investigation of Nemeroff's activities, and found multiple violations of its policies. Nemeroff responded by assuring Emory in a memorandum, "In view of the NIMH/Emory/GSK grant, I shall limit my consulting to GSK to under $10,000/year and I have informed GSK of this policy." Yet that same year, he received $171,031 from the company, while he reported to Emory just $9,999—a dollar shy of the $10,000 threshold for reporting to the National Institutes of Health.
Emory benefited from Nemeroff's grants and other activities, and that raises the question of whether its lax oversight was influenced by its own conflicts of interest. As reported by Gardiner Harris in TheNew York Times,3 Nemeroff himself had pointed out his value to Emory in a 2000 letter to the dean of the medical school, in which he justified his membership on a dozen corporate advisory boards by saying:
Surely you remember that Smith-Kline Beecham Pharmaceuticals donated an endowed chair to the department and there is some reasonable likelihood that Janssen Pharmaceuticals will do so as well. In addition, Wyeth-Ayerst Pharmaceuticals has funded a Research Career Development Award program in the department, and I have asked both AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals and Bristol-Meyers [sic] Squibb to do the same. Part of the rationale for their funding our faculty in such a manner would be my service on these boards.
Because these psychiatrists were singled out by Senator Grassley, they received a great deal of attention in the press, but similar conflicts of interest pervade medicine. (The senator is now turning his attention to cardiologists.) Indeed, most doctors take money or gifts from drug companies in one way or another. Many are paid consultants, speakers at company-sponsored meetings, ghost-authors of papers written by drug companies or their agents,4 and ostensible "researchers" whose contribution often consists merely of putting their patients on a drug and transmitting some token information to the company. Still more doctors are recipients of free meals and other out-and-out gifts. In addition, drug companies subsidize most meetings of professional organizations and most of the continuing medical education needed by doctors to maintain their state licenses.
No one knows the total amount provided by drug companies to physicians, but I estimate from the annual reports of the top nine US drug companies that it comes to tens of billions of dollars a year. By such means, the pharmaceutical industry has gained enormous control over how doctors evaluate and use its own products. Its extensive ties to physicians, particularly senior faculty at prestigious medical schools, affect the results of research, the way medicine is practiced, and even the definition of what constitutes a disease.
Consider the clinical trials by which drugs are tested in human subjects.5 Before a new drug can enter the market, its manufacturer must sponsor clinical trials to show the Food and Drug Administration that the drug is safe and effective, usually as compared with a placebo or dummy pill. The results of all the trials (there may be many) are submitted to the FDA, and if one or two trials are positive—that is, they show effectiveness without serious risk—the drug is usually approved, even if all the other trials are negative. Drugs are approved only for a specified use—for example, to treat lung cancer—and it is illegal for companies to promote them for any other use.
But physicians may prescribe approved drugs "off label"—i.e., without regard to the specified use—and perhaps as many as half of all prescriptions are written for off-label purposes. After drugs are on the market, companies continue to sponsor clinical trials, sometimes to get FDA approval for additional uses, sometimes to demonstrate an advantage over competitors, and often just as an excuse to get physicians to prescribe such drugs for patients. (Such trials are aptly called "seeding" studies.)
Since drug companies don't have direct access to human subjects, they need to outsource their clinical trials to medical schools, where researchers use patients from teaching hospitals and clinics, or to private research companies (CROs), which organize office-based physicians to enroll their patients. Although CROs are usually faster, sponsors often prefer using medical schools, in part because the research is taken more seriously, but mainly because it gives them access to highly influential faculty physicians—referred to by the industry as "thought-leaders" or "key opinion leaders" (KOLs). These are the people who write textbooks and medical journal papers, issue practice guidelines (treatment recommendations), sit on FDA and other governmental advisory panels, head professional societies, and speak at the innumerable meetings and dinners that take place every year to teach clinicians about prescription drugs. Having KOLs like Dr. Biederman on the payroll is worth every penny spent.
A few decades ago, medical schools did not have extensive financial dealings with industry, and faculty investigators who carried out industry-sponsored research generally did not have other ties to their sponsors. But schools now have their own manifold deals with industry and are hardly in a moral position to object to their faculty behaving in the same way. A recent survey found that about two thirds of academic medical centers hold equity interest in companies that sponsor research within the same institution.6 A study of medical school department chairs found that two thirds received departmental income from drug companies and three fifths received personal income.7 In the 1980s medical schools began to issue guidelines governing faculty conflicts of interest but they are highly variable, generally quite permissive, and loosely enforced.
Because drug companies insist as a condition of providing funding that they be intimately involved in all aspects of the research they sponsor, they can easily introduce bias in order to make their drugs look better and safer than they are. Before the 1980s, they generally gave faculty investigators total responsibility for the conduct of the work, but now company employees or their agents often design the studies, perform the analysis, write the papers, and decide whether and in what form to publish the results. Sometimes the medical faculty who serve as investigators are little more than hired hands, supplying patients and collecting data according to instructions from the company.
In view of this control and the conflicts of interest that permeate the enterprise, it is not surprising that industry-sponsored trials published in medical journals consistently favor sponsors' drugs—largely because negative results are not published, positive results are repeatedly published in slightly different forms, and a positive spin is put on even negative results. A review of seventy-four clinical trials of antidepressants, for example, found that thirty-seven of thirty-eight positive studies were published.8 But of the thirty-six negative studies, thirty-three were either not published or published in a form that conveyed a positive outcome. It is not unusual for a published paper to shift the focus from the drug's intended effect to a secondary effect that seems more favorable.
The suppression of unfavorable research is the subject of Alison Bass's engrossing book, Side Effects: A Prosecutor, a Whistleblower, and a Bestselling Antidepressant on Trial. This is the story of how the British drug giant GlaxoSmithKline buried evidence that its top-selling antidepressant, Paxil, was ineffective and possibly harmful to children and adolescents. Bass, formerly a reporter for the Boston Globe, describes the involvement of three people—a skeptical academic psychiatrist, a morally outraged assistant administrator in Brown University's department of psychiatry (whose chairman received in 1998 over $500,000 in consulting fees from drug companies, including GlaxoSmithKline), and an indefatigable New York assistant attorney general. They took on GlaxoSmithKline and part of the psychiatry establishment and eventually prevailed against the odds.

3 Things: A Nest for the winter
Date: January 23, 2013
by: Robert Plunket | Contributing Writer
Snowbirds have been flocking to Sarasota for more than 100 years and no town in the country caters to them quite as well as we do. There's the gorgeous winter weather, of course, along with an unparalleled wealth of recreational activities. Add in the dining and cultural events, and the relative ease of getting around — been to Naples in February lately? — and we're sure they'll be flocking for many years to come. Here's a selection of snowbird nests that should have our Northern neighbors drooling about this time of year.
1. For the snowbird who has everything ...
1241 Gulf of Mexico Drive, No. 702
If price is no object, go with the ultimate: beachfront on Longboat Key. This 3,400-square-foot condo on the seventh floor of the Water Club has three balconies overlooking the Gulf, plus an array of luxury features — maple floors, wood-inlay ceilings, a private elevator and a glamorous kitchen. With three bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths, there's plenty of room for visitors, and the amenities are what you would expect at an upscale Caribbean resort: an enormous pool, fitness center, tennis courts, etc. Snowbirds will appreciate the impeccable security and the concierge who will ready the apartment for your visits. There's also a private garage so you can leave a car. Pets are welcome, so bring along Rover. The condo is priced at $2,595,000.
For more information call Shellie Young, of Premier Sotheby's, at 713-5458.
2. For the arts-loving snowbird ..
1350 Main St., No. 502
Sarasota's latest wave of snowbirds come for the theater, opera, concerts and cabaret that fill every evening of the winter months, and this pied-à-terre, at 1350 Main St., is the perfect perch in which to enjoy them. It's not large — just 705 square feet — but, that can be a plus in a second home. And the location couldn't be better. You're a short stroll from the entertainment and, just as important, the dining. This unit comes furnished, with an urban-chic feeling and an elaborate set of window treatments, including blackout shades. Other conveniences: a washer/dryer, concierge service, indoor parking, and yes, pets are allowed. Owners can rent their units up to 12 times a year, and the latest trend is for locals to buy and use them for urban weekends. Priced at $319,000.
For more information call Doug Parks, of Michael Saunders and Co., at 400-9087.
3. For the golfing snowbird ...
9330 Clubside Circle, No. 3201
If your idea of snowbird heaven is endless golf, check out communities like Stoneybrook, in Palmer Ranch. You'll find comfortable, well-appointed condos at prices that are quite affordable. This second-floor, turnkey-furnished unit couldn't be more pleasant, with two bedrooms, two baths and a lanai overlooking the third fairway and several pretty lakes. There's an eat-in kitchen and a private laundry. Owners must join the golf club but, membership fees are reasonable — a bargain, actually — and the course is top-notch. And if you ever do get bored with golf, the beach is 10 minutes away, along with other activities, including the Legacy Trail for biking and jogging. This is classic snowbird living. It's priced at $149,000.
For more information call Ken Ipox, of Premier Sotheby's, at 993-7279.

Poor Customer Service and Poor Resolution
Posted by
DALLAS, TEXAS -- This email is to serve as a complaint. I am very dissatisfied and upset with the way I was treated today by Manager Ricky, representative for the Limited. I took a pair of pants to the Limited store, located off Park Lane, for alterations approx. a week ago. The pants were new with tags still attached. I took three (3) more pair today 4/28/13 to be altered, and told the young Asian lady I needed to pick up as well. The young lady went to the back to retrieve my pants. I went to fold the pants and place them in my bag, when I noticed a red stain on the leg of the pants. I brought the problem to the young lady attention, who then paged for the manager Ricky.
Ricky look at the pants and stated "I can try to get the stain out, we send them out, so I don't know how that happen" or "if they were that way when they were brought here". Ricky had a very none caring attitude and I was really upset that she implied that I may have brought my pants there in that condition.
The limited provides a service, I entrust that my clothing will be handled with care when I leave them. I am more upset with how she handled me and the lack of customer service she offered. She asked if I wanted to take my pants home and wash them to see if the stain would come out. I know if I had been a white female, I would not have been subject to this type of treatment. I observed how careless they were with my clothes. My pants were thrown on the counter, possibly location were my pants were stain from residue left from their drinks. If you're going to provide a service, be organized.
My pants should have been hung in a location designated for alterations and not thrown on the counter subject to stains, being lost, or damaged while left unattended.

I was completely unaware that The Limited offered alterations. Thanks for the info..

If you have their credit card they will provide simple alterations. I get my pants length extended. They only provide alterations to either extend or take in the length.

Unethical Business Practices Online
Posted by
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS -- I had been eyeing a peplum top from the Limited for some time but since everything goes on sale there I wanted to wait until it went on sale before I bought it. I finally saw it for half off ($19.99), ordered it, and got my confirmation email. Two weeks went by and the item still had not shipped.
I checked online to see the status of it but all it said was that my order was "open". It had no estimated ship date or any reason for the delay. The website also says orders ship within 6 - 8 business days so it had been longer than that. I decided to email customer service to see if I can get an update and got a reply this morning. They said they were out of stock of that top, did not expect to get any more in, and that they would refund my credit card. So basically they charged my credit card and never intended to give it to me! And what if I didn't follow up on my order? Were they just going to hope I never noticed and keep my money?
With tax and shipping it was $28 so it's not a ton of money but it's the principal of the matter. This seems shady and a bit unethical. Also, I told my sister about this who ordered a dress over two months ago and still hasn't received it yet. They keep telling her it's on backorder but who knows if she will ever get it! I've been a long time Limited shopper but after this and the fact that every single skirt or pair of pants I buy from them the hem comes down after a couple of wears, I think it's time I take my business elsewhere.

Normally when a brick and mortar, or online retailer offers an item for 1/2 the normal sale price, the item is being discontinued or seasonal changes are about to occur in their offerings (which necessitates liquidating stock to make room for the next season's items). In almost all cases such as this limited quantities are available and will sell quickly. As you ordered online, it may have been available when the order was placed but there were potentially many customer's ordering the same item and your order may not have processed prior to the stock being depleted.
JISCal2 on 08/25/2012:
I agree. If they cannot take the time to follow up on your order after that much time had gone by, it is bad. Whether computer or human error they are still responsible to make sure you are notified and your money is returned in a timely manner.
CowboyFan on 08/27/2012:
when it says "6 to 8" business days, that is really almost 2 weeks, since there are only 5 business days in a week. That they had not notified you within 2 weeks was not inconsistent with their practices.
The store may in fact have not known for 2 weeks whether they had enough product that your order would end up being shipped or not, I.e. as they run down through the multiple purchase orders with limited stock, they may or may not get to your order for shipping before they run out. At that point, they would automatically refund your credit.
Most companies charge your credit card when you order, not when shipped. You then get a refund.
If an order is backordered, you can always cancel it, instead of waiting to see if you get it.

WAUWAUTOSA, WISCONSIN -- I bought a top on sale at the store, loved it, had no intention of returning it. But when I wanted to wear it for an out of town wedding, I found a tear in shoulder seam. I took it back as soon as I could since I didn't save receipt or tag. A nice sales person was willing to have me switch it out with a top of same price but I was in a hurry and couldn't shop so she offered to leave the manager a message documenting my situation. Again I could not return the next day but made it back in about 3 days. And the manager nearly had my head.
She treated me like a criminal, even though you could see that I clearly did not take a scissor to the top. I know that there are a few bad apples out there that ruin it for the majority of honest people but her behaviour was rude, disrespectful, unprofessional and accusatory. The whole time I remained calm, while she constantly cut me off by raising her voice multiple times. This not only ruined my shopping spirit for the night but left me thinking I would never shop at the limited.

The Limited Rewards Card
Posted by
I never received my rewards card from the Limited. When I tried to call to check on it, the first rep said that it would be 4-6 weeks (it's never taken this long before, but OK I'll buy it). So 3-4 weeks later I call back to verify and of course the next rep had no clue as to what I was talking about. To say the least it was most frustrating. It's like someone holding on to money that is owed to you. I had absolutely no help until I called back in and spoke to a representative who actually knew what was going on.
The previous rep had NO clue. Her name is [snip], if you ever reach this rep HANG UP IMMEDIATELY and call back. I told her that I never received my reward for earning 300 points and she thought that I was actually talking about cash $$. I think what irritated me the most was her complete disregard for my situation. Never once did this person (for lack of a better word) say "I'm sorry" or try to make amends. She was very cold and condescending. I can only hope that if she's ever in a situation where she needs to find out what happened to money owed to her that she is treated with the same ill-treatment I received from her, after all its only fair!
Also, I would like [snip] to know that I received your name from a co-worker at your company, the same one that had no clue what was going on with my account, she was MORE than willing to give your first and last name, but would only give HER first name with her employee # I thought that was VERY disrespectful and dangerous and I think you should know!

Deceptive practices at The Limited
Posted by
Jordan 7
NORTH LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS -- I recently tried to return a handbag that I purchased at The Limited. When I purchased the bag, it was located in a section of the store with sale merchandise that was marked 30% off.
When I tried to return the handbag, I was told that I could not return it because it was a Final Sale item and that Final Sale items could not be returned.
However, there was nothing on the handbag ticket or receipt to indicate that it was a "Final Sale" item and could not be returned. I was told that there signs in the store indicating that Final Sale items could not be returned. The side of the store where I purchased the handbag had no signs saying that that merchandise was "Final Sale." When I told the sales clerk that there weren't any signs in the area where the handbag was located and that there was nothing marked on the ticket or sales receipt saying "Final Sale", she said there were signs "all over the store."
I don't know how I was supposed to know that this particular product was a "Final Sale" product.
I consider this to be a very deceptive practice, and would not feel comfortable buying merchandise at The Limited in the future, because of their unethical and deceptive practices.
I have shopped at The Limited for 20 years, and have a Limited charge account. I am definitely going to cancel my charge account and will not shop there again.

If I'm not one hundred percent sure about something I'm buying, I always ask if it can be returned, especially if it is on sale.
Buddy01 on 07/16/2009:
Maybe there were signs posted, just not in the area of the handbag. 30% off seems like a low amount for a final sale item. Perhaps it was 30% off the already marked down price.
tinydancer89 on 07/19/2009:
most mark down items are non returnable. it's a common practice.
eurochick on 08/02/2009:
This exact same situation happened to me at the Woodfiled Mall location in Schaumburg IL. In the past I have been an infrequent Limited shopper. The store/company had an opportunity to convert me to a happy return customer, instead they lost a customer for life.
I disagree with tinydancer89. I have often returned mark down items and have never had a problem until my experience at The Limited.
Andrea on 07/25/2014:
While in your Hamilton Place Mall Limited (chattanooga, tn). I witnessed a very rude situation. Not sure what was going on but your employee was not professional and handling the customer in what I think was just all out rude. After watching for a couple minutes I just sat my clothes down and walked out. See I live in knoxville and always stop in while in town. It is odd that this was happening because I always have been greeted and helped by the employees at this store but On Wednesday, July 23 (around 3:30) I can say that did not happen as the employee was just laughing at the customer. I feel for the customer as she did not deserve that type of treatment (no matter what the situation was). Hope you can fix your customer service issue with this employee.

Latest news, analysis and links on UW football, basketball and other sports
Last look: UW at Minnesota
Minneapolis – Thoughts from Wisconsin's 58-53 overtime loss to Minnesota on Thursday:
Where to start with this one?
Let's go with a general comment, a blunt one. UW should have won this game.
When you're up, 49-43, with 5 minutes 8 seconds left, as UW was, if you hit a shot or two and take care of the basketball you win.
Instead, Ryan Evans missed two free throws, UW struggled to get open shots and committed costly turnovers.
UW manufactured key plays late in victories over Illinois, Iowa and Michigan but looked shaky when the game was on the line Thursday.
"If we execute the way that we're capable of and the way we have been recently down the stretch," senior Jared Berggren said, "we probably survive and get out of here in regulation with the win.
"But that's not the case. We got stagnant. We let their pressure get to us a little bit. We just didn't make plays when we had to step up. "
Berggren finished with eight points and eight rebounds in 39 minutes. He missed both three-point attempts and hit 3 of 9 field-goal attempts overall. Two of those nine attempts came on offensive rebounds.
The 6-foot-10 Berggren needs more shots. Period. Ryan Evans (2 of 8 in 29 minutes) and Traevon Jackson (3 of 14 in 39 minutes) combined to make just 5 of 22 field-goal attempts.
Berggren is UW's best threat near the basket. He needs to demand the ball. His teammates need to do a better job of looking for him and then feeding him. The coaches need to remind everyone of that.
UW's offense won't become more efficient until Berggren gets more touches.
Berggren had a chance to forge a 54-54 tie in the overtime but he missed an open three-pointer from the left wing.
His shot was off and Minnesota guard Andre Hollins grabbed the rebound with 32.5 seconds left. Hollins brought the ball up the floor and was able to work the clock down to 17.9 seconds left before Jackson fouled him near halfcourt.
Why did UW wait so long to foul? UW coach Bo Ryan said he wanted to foul with about 20 seconds left.
"Time to be able to get it down the other end and score," he explained, "and work the other team on their out of bounds to see if they can turn it over. A lot of things can happen in that amount of time."
I generally see Ryan's perspective but not this time. I would have fouled as quickly as possible to extend the game.
I don't need to surf the web to know UW fans are upset that UW's head coach keeps using Evans instead of freshman Sam Dekker.
Evans struggled from the field and from the line but finished with a team-high 11 rebounds. Dekker had a team-high 14 points in 22 minutes.
Ryan acknowledged Evans' shooting struggles hurt UW. Asked if he plans to stick with the fifth-year senior, Ryan said he would.
"Well, on the boards and defensively," he said, "you've got to look at what a guy gives you."
Kudos to the UW players for giving reporters frank responses after the loss.
We talked to Berggren, Jackson and Mike Bruesewitz outside the UW locker room. All three were upset about the loss but Bruesewitz and Jackson were clearly upset with their individual play, too. Bruesewitz's eyes were red and watery (I doubt he peeled an onion in the locker room). Jackson was steamed.
I appreciated them answering questions and giving straightforward responses. Although fans might not care, I've seen professionals blow off post-game interview sessions.
When the UW players talk to us afterward, win or lose, and are candid it makes it easier for reporters to give their readers the best insight possible.
With that in mind, I'll close with comments from Bruesewitz, whose fortunes did a 180 in the final minute of regulation with UW holding a 49-47 lead.
Bruesewitz drew a huge charge on Austin Hollins with 22.6 seconds left but then was called for traveling when he took too many steps attempting to inbound the ball. That gave the Gophers the ball and Joe Coleman hit two free throws with 17.6 seconds after being fouled by Dekker.
"They ramped up the defense," Bruesewitz said. "Give the credit to them. They knocked down shots.
"We should have closed it out, though. I feel partially responsible. We had the game in hand and I messed it up."

Can't wait for this group of seniors to graduate. They are mostly roll players who start and think they are stars. Bruiser should never shoot another three. He keeps hoisting them up with bad results. Evans needs to be a 15 minute a game guy. He has totally lost his shooting touch from the field and the line. He personally has cost Bucky two big 10 games with his bad free throw shooting. Bergren just disappears too often. You can see he has some talent for some reason he plays well for a game and then nothing for the next 2-3 games. The play at then end of regulation may be the dumbest thing I have ever seen in college basketball. Jackson either needs to continue his dribble and attack the basket or they need to run a set play and get the ball Bergren inside or Brust outside. Jackson had his man on his hip and then pulled up and let him recover. Frustrating team to watch.Hide replies
i would agree... i think i will mist bergerren because he's at least playing defense, blocking shots, and is not constantly jacking up bricks and missing free throws but rebounding and hussling will only get you so far when it comes to Bruiser and Evans. Evans should be on the bench as soon as the Badgers reach the bonus.... you can't afford to throw away 2-3 posessions every game when you play 1-2 posession games every time out.
Evans cost the Badgers @MN and MSU, that I can think of off the top of my head with his FT shooting. He could of easily cost us the UM game also.
Luke: Can't blame Evans FTs for MSU loss, as he was 1 of 2 from the line that game. Berggren's 2 for 8 was the FT culprit there. That being said, Evans was just 2-10 from the field against MSU, so there's still some validity to your point.
This felt like watching the OSU football game last year. You go into the game thinking it was a 50/50 proposition to win but the WAY they lost is hard to choke down.....pun intended. Jackson dribbling the ball off his foot, Bruiser's brain freeze on the inbound and Evans dribbling himself into trouble under the backboard. Yuck!
JP, you are right on about the Berggren issues. He is the best player on the team and he doesn't touch the ball close to the basket enough. I get the Evans minutes, I just don't get that he and Jackson are taking all the shots. I don't blame them, because nobody else seems to take the initiative to score, unless you count the three pointers that Bruiser takes. I'd love to see Berggren and Kaminsky on the court with Dekker at the same time. It seems to me that would provide some scoring opportunities. Whither George Marshall? When he comes in it looks like he just dribbles and then picks up his dribble 6 feet outside the arc. What is that?
Lets face it Badger fans, while last night's game was frustrating to watch Bucky go down to defeat, with the poor play and poor decisions from so many people, Wisconsin has overachieved this season.
If someone would have told you earlier in this season, the Badgers would be 8-4 at this point in the BIG conference race and a lock to go to the NCAA tourney, wouldn't you have accepted that scenario with open hands.
That 6th or 7th spot in the conference seemed a likely place for the Badgers to finish. The BIG was getting lots of props and Bucky looked to be out of the picture.
Last night's game only proved, what we all knew, for lots of years ... Wisconsin can lose to anybody. I'll take the good with the bad knowing the talent level on this year's team is not that good.
8-4. I'll take it.Hide replies
yes, i agree but that doesn't mean you can be happy with giving that game away last night.
Who's happy? I'd have made Jackson, Evans and Bruesewutz sit in the back of the bus, taken away their 'lunch money', and watch that last five minutes and overtime of the game ad nauseam,
They will find a way to squeek out 3 more wins and will find more ways to lose 3 more games, and the first game in the Big tourney. So 11-7 reg. season and 20-11 for the year. Ya not bad, but not great when they can do better and bring their A game.
I figured maybe 9-9 in conf.......so a little better.
At least we will keep our ncaa consecutive tourney appearance alive, at 15,
this year. Other than that who knows which team will show up, your guess is as good as any other.
You said it AZ. However, I will give them a better than 50/50 chance of finishing better than 3-3 down the stretch. I think they finish 12-6 and the 2 losses may not be both to OSU and MSU. Team must drive Vegas odds-makers nuts!!
AZ Mike the NW, PSU, Purdont, Neb games should be W's but will be down to the end as Badgers play up or down to level of competition. OSU MSU Bucky 'll probably win 1 or both, just the way the season's going. Make Ft's and MSU would be in win column. BTW out here in TUcson fansn and criticism of the U of A is getting heated after 2 losses. AZ is worst 20-4 team I've seen. If they play UW a double root canal.
I'll take 8-4 all day every day. This team is only going to go as far as their defense takes them. Their offense, sans Dekker and on some days Brust, is completely inept.
As an aside, I want to know who recruit Jackson, so I can call and ask him what in the world he saw in this kid, besides his father's last name. I am astonished still that Marshall isn't playing more. He can't be worse, can he....?Hide replies
Your last question about Marshall...it's gotta be his defense. I'm thinking Marshall is the next group's version of Rob Wilson.
But overall, there really is nobody else on the bench that can give us minutes at PG. Fahey? Other walk-ons?
Next year will be different with a healthy Gasser and Koenig on board.
Jackson is a below average point guard at the moment. He is inconsistent, and can be taken advantage of by a physical, reaching defense (such as played by Minnesota).
I don't see great things from Marshall either. His appearance in the game did not suggest he needs more minutes. Inconsistent defense (he gives up drives to the basket) and not much on offense.
I don't see GM as the PG answer to TJ.
Few things.
1- What is Jackson's deal? The guy is bricklayer if he doesn't turn it over before he gets a shot off. Holy cow.
2-End of regulation they have all the time to atleast fire up the musket and get a shot off, and Jackson milks the clock down and his only play is to fire a 90mph fastball off the backboard? At least give yourselves a chance and get a shot.
3-If Koenig is sitting behing Jackson next year, Bo needs to stop with holding seniority as a major point for playing time. Jackson is awful.Hide replies
Forgot #4 YIKES! that was a bad game.
#5 If Evans can make just a few free throws they walk away with an ugly W! Being in the double bonus and having to hacks at it, I thought he would get one to drop. Not last night...
He did get 1 to bank in. "Backboard"!
I notice at the end of regulation Dekker didn't shine either. Couldn't get a decent shot on two straight possessions. Minnesota went right at him too when looking to tie the game.
None of the players are perfect, and all could have made a play or two more to win the game. That's how it goes. A good but not great team.
Badgers 4-4 in the last 8 games, Evans 26-87 from the field in that span, 18-41 from the line. That is 128 shots.... For a division 1 player to shoot 128 shots the majority of which 15 feet and in to make 34% of those shots is rediculous. I know there are plenty of players who can't do better than 46-128, then don't frickin' shoot 128 times!!!!!Hide replies
Right on! I guess we need to be doctors of psychosis to figure out WHY BO lets Evans and Jackson constantly have the green light to lose games?? This is the third loss directly attributed to their poor play.
If they are going to play, and they are, they need to be far more selective in the shots they take. I agree, coaching is required to achieve that goal. Give the shots they don't take to Dekker, Brust and Berggren down low. Please, Berggren DOWN LOW more!!!!!!!!
Make Brust the PG and move Dekker to shooting guard. Sit Evans and start Kaminsky. Longer, more athletic, and better shooting.
Wow, that would be really radical in Bo's world. I am not sure Brust is built to be PG.
Yes Evans should get reduced time. Will he? Probably not. If his slump was just for a game or two it would be one thing, but he has not performed all year and if they are to win in the NCAA tourney his time has to be very limited! The other issue is that Jackson needs to learn how to make contact and keep the ball close to him. They will never call a foul the way he extends the arm and ball away from his body!
What's frustrating is that the Badgers offense seems to go through Evans on the low block alot. By doing that, it seems to indicate that Bo thinks he's their best low-post option? Egads... Truthfully, Berggren is no great shakes down low either. In fact, it's hard for me to remember seeing a team that had so few offensive weapons, yet managed to win as many games as they have. The Badgers play great team defense, and limit possessions, but this team is probably a one-and-done in the tournament, or a second round out at the very best. Good enough to show up, but not go anywhere.
The only good part about this game was Elliott Eliason's profane gesture near his pelvic region after Minnesota hit a late 3. We have dvr so we rewinded it about 10 times. It was hilarious. I was hoping the media would pick it up but I guess most people missed it.Hide replies
I guess you were the only one looking at Eliasons groin area!
Creepy AZ. I think that kid was within an eyelash of being T'ed up last night.
