Michael our waiter
|Dec 13, 2014 argelio Florida, United States
Our chopped salad, fried calamari and branzini dishes were very good. The short rib with pasta dinner left much to be desired - very little short rib meat.
|Dec 08, 2014 Kathleen CT, United States
The manager was very nice and accomodating; the waiter, however, had only a rudimentary understanding of English and got the orders wrong first time around. The room is lovely, though, and comfortable. We wish they'd turn back the clock a bit to a few months ago.
The menu and food quality had completely changed. (we have dined there four or five times in the past year and loved it). It felt as if either a new owner and chef had taken over the place or the present owner(s) was trying to save money by having lesser-quality items. No longer was there any shrimp dish, or interesting main courses...lots of meat sauces, eggplant sauces...really an odd menu. No pasta dish for a non-meat-eater, though the chef was nice enough to take a sauce from a rabbit dish and put it on some pasta for me. ....just a completely different experience.

Hi again. I sent you a query about eliminating variables to deal with back pain, but it wasn't really answered. I would still love/appreciate your advice. My platform does have the center bar and I believe enough slats (about 2 1/2 inches apart). I put a bungie board on it so that the Simmon's warranty wouldn't void. I've continued to wake up in discomfort and am wondering if a SLIGHT UNEVENNESS IN THE PLATFORM or Bungee Board COULD THROW OFF THE ENTIRE BED/Cause my back to ache, or, if its most likely that my body doesn't like the contoring feel of the bed. I'd appreciate your thoughts.Stefanie
Hi Stef. The last answer was an elimination answer. If your platform is fine, the problem is with the mattress you chose. It may or may not be the support, but that it's either to firm or too soft.
...or both.

The Seminar will stimulate deliberations and interactive problem-solving for issues related to protected area and natural resource management. Program activities will take advantage of the rich experiences and multiple cultural perspectives of the participants, as well as the unique heritage and resources available in the Northern Rocky Mountain region.
To experience the opportunities available in the region, the seminar participants will travel to several types of protected areas. During these visits, participants will have opportunities to interact with respected experts in the management of national parks, wildlife refuges, privately held land conservancies, and multiple use forest and grassland reserves.
The following four thematic areas will be covered throughout the Seminar: Integrated Planning for Protected Areas; Community Engageement; Tourism, Concessions, and Visitor Management; and Transboundary Management in the Face of Climate Change.
The cost of the Seminar is to be determined for each participant, which will include all instruction, lodging, and food throughout the program. Travel that occurs within the United States during the operation of the program will also be covered by the tuition fee, including air travel from Montana to Washington, DC. Air travel expenses to and from the Seminar are the responsibility of participants and/or their sponsors. Funding for participation is not available from the Seminar organizers.
The Seminar is a technical and professional course, placing high demands on the attention and contributions of participants.

Sometimes the right part comes along at the right time for the right actor, and the film that results from it forever changes his or her career. That's exactly the case with Matthew McConaughey in Dallas Buyers Club as he takes on the role of AIDS activist Ron Woodroof, and in the process proves himself to be that rare combination of movie star and serious actor that he's always threatened to become.
Ron is a good-old-boy Texan who, in 1986, is diagnosed with AIDS. At that time, far less was known about how to treat patients; his doctors want him to take doses of AZT, which could help combat the disease, but might al...
Spirit Award winner Matthew McConaughey portrays real-life Texas electrician Ron Woodroof, an ordinary man who found himself in a life-or-death battle with the medical establishment and pharmaceutical companies. In 1985, Ron was blindsided by being diagnosed as H.I.V.-positive and given 30 days to live. Ron grabbed hold of non-toxic alternative treatments from all over the world by means both legal and illegal. Seeking to avoid government sanctions against selling non-approved medicines and supplements, he established a "buyers club," which fellow H.I.V.-positive people could join for access to his supplies.
Grim, intense movie tells a powerful, relevant true story.
Matthew McConaughey stars in "Dallas Buyer's Club" as real-life Texas cowboy Ron Woodroof, whose free-wheeling life was overturned in 1985 when he was diagnosed as HIV-positive and given 30 days to live.

Legal Food For Thought During the First Year of Nursing (and Beyond) - page 2
The first year of nursing is, in countless cases, also one of the most challenging years of a nurse's career because many different events are taking place. First of all, a significant number of newer nurses are acquiring the... Read More
- 1Mar 4, '13 by mrsbacktoschoolThat is a great post, thank you very much Commuter for putting it up. Having personal experience with malpractice lawsuits (not as a nurse, but as the SNF's social worker), being blamed for negligence in such a procedure is very devastating and personally stressful. It is an important reminder that there are so many things we worry about that we are sometimes scared to relax and enjoy the job. Families and patients can be very pushy and intimidating. But by arming oneself with information, that stress can disappear to background noise.
- 2Mar 4, '13 by ChemStickProThanks for this. I'm a CNA and in our CNA classes they told us that anyone could call the state at any time for any reason to report a wrong-doing on our part, and even if we were innocent, that would go on our permanent record and we would never be able to find work as a CNA or nurse again. If this is indeed true, then the rules should be changed. Many people with dementia in long-term care think something has been stolen when it's actually just been misplaced or never existed in the first place. If a family member doesn't realize this, a theft could be reported against a CNA with no basis whatsoever.
- 0Mar 4, '13 by FurBabyMom, BSN, RNI went to a conference recently. One of our speakers was a physician who went to law school. (S)He practices law primarily but also practices medicine some (it sounds like they work per diem). It was interesting the discussion we had about medical malpractice, lawsuits and other legal issues - and a better way for me to gain more understanding about the laws in my current state. VERY informative!
The biggest take aways - things nurses get sued for, what the laws in our state say, and why practicing according to facility policy and within the state nurse practice act is paramount. Obviously, for good reason, one should not be practicing outside their scope of practice and training/competencies. One of the other things that was discussed was that claims are much more likely to be made verses the hospital/corporation or physician - because the potential rewards are higher. That being said, nurses can and do get singled out (depends on the situation, and on what happened, the severity or scope if you will). Statistically speaking though...it is somewhat (okay, I lied, very) comforting food for thought. My facility is self-insured (as are our physician practices), which, mostly, helps us as staff. But. To protect itself, our company is very adamant that our policies and procedures exist for reasons and failure to comply will cause the facility to drop you from the group representation.
Also, one of the things to consider about - many malpractice insurance programs for nurses include state board representation. It was explained that most carriers allow nurses to choose and retain private counsel, and once the matter is settled the representation bills the insurance company. (Again, you have to check with your carried/policy specifics).
- 0Mar 4, '13 by kenderella89, BSN, RNSo awesome to read this! I just brought nursing insurance today from NSO. I just started as a school nurse and I feel the need to protect myself due to a situation at the district. Not that I don't think the school district will fight for me and leave me high and dry, but I need that sure self-protection. I like to be prepared and this is the best thing I can do for myself and hopefully I will never need it I know there's a School Nursing and the Law text out there and I'm going to order it on payday!
- 1Mar 4, '13 by beckster_01Most people threaten to sue for circumstances that are beyond the healthcare professional's control. Example: "I'm going to sue because my vascular bypass didn't work, even though when I went home after surgery I continue to smoke 2ppd and ate McDonald's every day."
- 2Mar 4, '13 by TheCommuter, ASN, RN Senior ModeratorQuote from bookbunnyDo a Google.com search of the term "Legal Issues in Nursing" and a whole slew of results will show up. Some of the results give information about courses offered at community colleges and state universities, while many of the other results lead to online courses regarding nursing and the law. Many opportunities exist to take CEU courses on legal issues in nursing, too. So there are a variety of ways a nurse can learn about the legalities surrounding their livelihoods.Do you have any suggestions as to where one could take a course in nursing and the law? It appears the laws would be according to one's state, unless there's a general course you recommend such as "business law" that is provided in a business degree curriculum.
- 0Mar 4, '13 by PalmHarborMomJust wondering if this will cover it...
I attend the University of South Florida. Part of our curriculum includes "Ethical/Legal Aspects of Nursing". The course descrpition is "Introduction to contemporary bioethical and legal issues confronting health care providers in a variety of settings. Focuses on identification of legal and ethical principles underlying the decision- making process in nursing and health care."
Is this the type of class that would be a good idea or should I look for an additional class?
- 0Mar 5, '13 by TheCommuter, ASN, RN Senior ModeratorQuote from PalmHarborMomPurely based on the description provided, this type of class seems like a great idea to learn more about legal issues that impact nursing practice.Is this the type of class that would be a good idea or should I look for an additional class?
- 0Mar 5, '13 by PalmHarborMomQuote from TheCommuterPurely based on the description provided, this type of class seems like a great idea to learn more about legal issues that impact nursing practice.
Thanks for the reply! The description that I gave is directly from the course catalog. I see tremendous value in learning about the legal aspects of nursing and feel fortunate that my university has included it in our curriculum.
Thanks again!

Red Canoe Media is St Louis' leading Internet Marketing company, offering custom marketing solutions to busineses in St Louis and throughout the US.
Our Story
Red Canoe Media – thre words that accurately explain our mission, our purpose and our services for our clients.
Just three letters but the word red means a lot to us. Usage of the color red in marketing typically means urgency and action – two things we put into every project we do.
Red also has a personal meaning to us – it's the color of our home town's baseball team, the St Louis Cardinals. What baseball fan wouldn't want to live and work in baseball heaven? Plus, red was our owner's mom's favorite color of m&m. That's why every canoe we own has an m on the front.
Our company culture encourages taking time to enjoy this great life we've been given. We enjoy fishing, camping, and (something us Missourians love) floating. Never been on a float trip? Join us for one this summer!
We chose the word media to show our wide range of service offerings. We can help your company with SEO, online advertising, ecommerce & conversion optimization. Or we can help you set up a social media campaign and newsletter schedule.
No matter what sort of online marketing you need, we have the skilled staff to help you achieve your goals.
What We Can Do for You
In short, we help businesses climb to the top of search engines like Google, Yahoo! and Bing.
Business owners and marketing managers hire us to get more traffic, sales, leads and conversions from their website.
Businesses want – and need – to rank at the top of the search engines. Without this, their website is stale and unproductive. Higher rankings means more traffic, and more traffic means new customers.
We promote websites through numerous tactics – such as following Google's guidelines for your website structure, building links back to your website from other sites, and helping you create new content.

– Coupons: Sellers can create coupons to promote their gigs to get more sales
– Just for SEO and SEO services: What do people come to Fiverr for? Ok, almost everything, video testimonials, dancing, etc. But most of the time, people come to Fiverr to outsource SEO service. And on SEOClerks, there are only SEO and SEO services so that buyers can be focus on what service they like best.
– Cheaper: While the price can be various, you will find some good service really cheap. Unlike Fiverr, the price is always $5 no matter it is crap or good stuff.
– Relatively safe: people are still making money online everyday from SEOClerks so there is no way it is scam

Teacher Groups Satisfied With Ruling on Voucher Program | 5-9-13
4:00 minutes (3.66 MB) Download
Several organizations are hailing the Louisiana State Supreme Court ruling that funding of the voucher program is unconstitutional. Governor Bobby Jindal remains steadfast in support of the program, saying the court only decided the funding mechanism was struck down in the case. Monroe Federation of Teachers President Sandie Lollie says the decision gives hope in seeing other parts of last year's reform being overturned.

Horrible Customer Service, Company Should Be Shut Down!
Posted by
I wish I saw the other reviews here before I made the unfortunate mistake of ordering school uniforms from FRANK BEE on the internet. I placed an order for my daughter's gym pants in early October. They took the payment from my credit card on 10/08/08. Today is November 23rd, and still no pants. I emailed their customer service, and received no response. A week later, I called them. One person answered the phone, and put me on hold for about 5-10 minutes. Another person picked up the call afterwards and told me the order shipped, but the tracking # was not in the system yet. She would call back around 6PM with that info.
Well, she never called. I called again the next day and told them I was waiting for the tracking # from the previous day, and again, I was put on hold. After some time, again, a different person picked up the call and told me the order had shipped, and they would call me at the end of the business day with the tracking number. And again, no one ever called. I waited another week, called back, and told them it was the 3rd time I was calling regarding the status of my order. Same thing happened again: I was put on hold, a different representative picks up the call, tells me my order has been shipped and he will call me at 5:30 PM with the tracking number, if that is okay. I said, "Of course it's okay! I want to know where my order is!"
Well, again... NOBODY EVER CALLED WITH MY TRACKING NUMBER! I checked the website for shipping information, and the website states there is no tracking information for this order! Are these people lying to me?? Was my order REALLY shipped? Will I ever receive my order, or just a royal rip-off from the Frank Bee Uniform Company? I have had it with them; they are incompetent, awful, and everything you DON'T want from customer service! Nothing but headaches & hassles, and I can't believe that this company is still in business! If I don't receive my order by Dec. 1st, I am contacting Paypal & my credit card company and putting in a complaint and requesting a full refund! Like others have warned:

Bad Company To Buy From - Steer Clear
Posted by
BRONX, NEW YORK -- This company is absolutely the most difficult company I have ever dealt with online.
Firstly, my order was ignored. I waited and waited and didn't receive it. I emailed them about this and it was immediately sent out after they said for some reason my order did not come in to their computer system in a normal way. ???? When I received the order , it was so terribly late and incomplete to a ridiculous degree. (Missing the main parts of the uniform.)I had to actually buy the uniform from another company because my order from Frank Bee took so long to get here and was not all there. I immediately returned the items to the company 3 months ago. They will not reply to my emails and do not answer their phones AT ALL.
Most importantly to know, they have not given me a refund for all my returned merchandise and seem pretty set on ignoring me altogether. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!
Terrible, horrible customer service. The worst I have seen yet!

BRONX, NEW YORK -- I'm a Police Officer from Washington, D.C. trying to save a little $$ on a police sweater offered by this company via their website. I purchased the Uniform Sweater Immediately, via the website and patiently wait 4 days without any communication from the company. I finally call the customer service line, and I am greeted by a VERY UNPROFESSIONAL male individual who advises me in a tone of voice that can only be described as confrontational (telephone tough guy) that it takes orders up to 3 day to actually ship then abruptly hangs the phone up. After my wife had to convince me not to drive up to the bronx to deal with this matter in person, I called back at least 15 times in which I got an answering machine. Finally, the same rude/unprofessional individual who is obviously upset that he is working in a uniform clothing store answers, I demanded a refund in which he replied he would take care of immediately.... Needless to say, It didn't happen I had to waiste my time again on the 5th day, unsuccessfully calling back the customer service number, then looking up an alternate number on the internet to finally reach someone who could issue my refund. 5 days later. This is absolutely the most UNPROFESSIONAL, RUDE, SLOW SHIPPING company I have ever come across in all my years of ever making a purchase. Steer Clear from these people don't let them hold up your money or jerk you around on the telephone, because with my experience with them, that is all they are good for!

Thank you for the information on these clowns. There are a lot of them out there that do the same thing in the hopes that you will just "go away." That's how they get away with it. Maybe this will also help you when you pull someone over and start asking the questions hopefully you will remember this "confrontational (telephone tough guy)" attitude and not use it yourself. I support the police but I must tell I don't feel they support me. This is a sad thing when I see the constitution being torn to pieces because sum dumb politician see fit to take away some more of our rights and "uses" the police to enforce it. I still believe that most police are good people but the line is getting shorter. Well maybe you will also remember my lecture when you stop someone they don't want to here it anymore then you do.

Officer Stanley, I am so glad that you are not a policeman out here. Anyone that thinks they have to "drive up to the Bronx to deal with this matter" worries me. Over a lousy sweater? What do you due to people that you catch speeding? Either chill out our turn in your badge Dirty Harry! JMHO Signed, All friendly law abiding unprofessional males.....PS. Waiste is spelled WASTE, okay officer? WOW!
Bababooey on 12/16/2006:
I am familiar with Frank Bee (I believe that they are located on E. Tremont Ave. in the Bronx). I didn't know that they sell police uniforms, as I thought that they only sold Catholic school uniforms.
When I was younger, my mother used to take me and my brothers there to get our uniforms for school. I remember that the people who ran the place were very nasty. If I were you, elstanley in the future, I would purchase my police uniforms from a store that specializes in police uniforms and not Catholic school uniforms!
Anonymous on 12/16/2006:
I agree with zzrokk...wtf? Have you no patience, officer? Also, if you had the ability to drive up to deal with this sit, then why in the h did you order online?
Bababooey on 12/18/2006:
emt_c: Why would "elstanley" ever want to drive from Washington D.C. to The Bronx (NYC) for a sweater?
I think that his point was that he is so frustrated that he feels like driving over 225 miles up to New York to speak to the "telephone tough guy" at Franke Bee's face to face!

Bababooey, I think the timeline speaks for itself.
Grandof on 12/26/2006:
These comments mirrow my experince with this company. In the four months I waited hoping to receive my order, I spoke to three or four employees who promissed quick service. I never did not receive my complete order and to this day do not know if a refund was ever issued. Stay away from this company.

Frankbee, you're a year and a half late. You may think you're prestigious but you seem to have left out customer service in your sales pitch. Did you dump the rude CSR or give this man back his money?
jktshff1 on 07/24/2008:
Super...the response time seems to go along with the customer service from the reviews LOL!
Wyz1 on 11/23/2008:
I wish I knew about this website before I ordered from this HORRIBLE company! Frank Bee School Uniforms is the most incompetent company I have ever ordered from on the 'net, and I regret it. Their customer service flat-out sucks! Every time I call there asking where my order is, they put me on hold for 10 minutes. I have called 3 times already looking for information on my order. Then a different person picks up the phone, and tells me my order shipped and they will call me back before 6PM that day with the tracking number. Every time I've called, I get the same treatment, same answer, and NO RETURN PHONE CALL! I still don't know where my order is, or if it was ever shipped, or if it ever will be. Now I will have to deal with Paypal and see if they can credit back my credit card, because I have lost all faith in this company! Especially after reading the other complaints here, which sound VERY similar to mine. Like another reviewer warned: STEER CLEAR OF THIS COMPANY!!! DO NOT ORDER FROM FRANK BEE SCHOOL UNIFORM COMPANY, UNLESS YOU WANT HEADACHES, HASSLES, POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND THE UNFORTUNATE CIRCUMSTANCE OF BEING RIPPED OFF!!!

Incompetent Service
Posted by
BRONX, NEW YORK -- This was one of the most incompetent firms I have ever dealt with. After being told that meeting a particular delivery date for a large dollar amount of hurricane relief supplies was absolutely important, and promising to meet that date, they were several days late (not the shipper's fault). They promised to provide return calls and update information, but never did so. They were difficult to contact via phone; their company president did not respond to complaints by mail. Then they attempted to bill me an additional amount for an overshipment beyond my actual order amount. They were rude and incompetent. Avoid at all cost!!

I am having the same problem right now. I have called and emailed several times, and still no response. I left a final message tom=night, and told them if they didn't call me by noon tomorrow, I will be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau. Hopefully they will respond.
I should have done more research before I ordered from them, but my husband needed clothing for work and that is the only place tat had them.
All I can say is that if you have to deal with them good luck!
J.L. King on 02/15/2008:
This is the worst company. They are rude and incompetent and I would not recommend doing business with them.

Best Asian Market Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach 2013 - New York Mart
10065 Sunset Strip
Sunrise, FL 33322
New York Mart's cavernous, warehouse space should be the first thing that tells you it's different. You're used to yellowing tiles in the low drop ceiling at your regular Asian market. You've even come to pine for them when you find your pantry devoid of rice noodles, miso paste, or dried shrimp. New York Mart offers row after row of bright-green vegetables. Bunches of Chinese broccoli, bok choy, and chive flowers are neatly arranged, each with a thin film of water thanks to constant misting. The meat and fish counters offer an endless variety of the cuts and fish most Americans are used to as well as more obscure Asian treats. Pig ears? Got 'em. Live hairy crab? Take a half-dozen. Don't forget to stop at the barbecue counter on the way out, where a half-pound of char siu — sticky-sweet, roasted pork shoulder — can be had for $4.

Appetizers for Summer Entertaining — Meatless Mondayby Maria Russo in Recipes, July 30th, 2012
Though back-to-school commercials are already flashing on our television screens and Halloween candy has somehow landed on store shelves, there's still plenty of summer left to be enjoyed and more than enough time to plan a summer party. Whether you're hosting a casual cookout for friends and family or organizing a neighborhood-wide barbecue, you'll want to serve a selection of easy-to-eat appetizers and pre-dinner snacks at your get-together. Check out a few of Food Network's favorite party-perfect appetizers below, and serve them up at your next backyard bash.
Instead of reaching for tired carrots and ranch dressing, prepare a platter of Food Network Magazine's Crudite With Infused Olive Oil and Balsamic (pictured above). A fancy name for raw vegetables that have been cut for simple munching, crudités make the ultimate party appetizer since they involve zero cooking. They can be served with straight-from-the-bottle olive oil and vinegar, though this recipe takes those classic pairings one step further by infusing the oil and balsamic. Over low heat, fragrant fresh herbs and garlic are steeped in olive oil, while brown sugar, red pepper flakes and light citrus zest are warmed in balsamic. Once cool, serve both the olive oil and vinegar in shallow bowls for easy, delicious dunking.
Gina and Pat Neely's 20-minute Grilled Stuffed Tomatoes are brimming with tender cooked pasta, smooth goat cheese and in-season basil, creating a richly satisfying appetizer. After just a few minutes on the grill, the cored tomatoes will become sweet and supple, the cheese melted and the top just barely browned. Watch this video to hear from the Neelys and learn how they cook up this five-star recipe.
Made with just a few ingredients in only 10 quick minutes, Food Network Magazine's Thyme and Honey Ricotta Spread is a go-to party starter that boasts uncomplicated elegance. To prepare this sweet and salty spread, top creamy ricotta cheese with warm honey and thyme leaves and finish with a drizzle of fruity olive oil. Serve with slices of crunchy toasted bread and let guests assemble their own cheesy bites.
Visit Food Network for more easy appetizer recipes and must-see party ideas.
Meatless Monday, an international movement, encourages people everywhere to cut meat one day a week for personal and planetary health. Browse more Meatless Monday recipes.

Hmmm… Friday is already reserved by some of us for fish (gotta get those Omega 3s). I think its great as a reminder to people that they don't have to eat meat every day if they don't want to and to foster an understanding of balance nutrition. It took me a long time to learn that coming from a family where everybody else is overweight and cardio disease is common – I wish they would take at least this much up.
Oh yeah and I don't really see this as "political food" …just yummy and good for ya.

My Story with Wirefly
Posted by
In around Feb. 2010 when I decided to sign up a cell phone plan with AT&T. This was my very first time on cell phone as I did not have much knowledge of using a cell phone at that time, all I needed was to have a phone that I could used to talk.
I was contacted by a guy with last name [snip], I believed he was a salesman of Wirefly or who did the sales for Wirefly on commission. He did not speak much English, and our conversation was totally in Chinese. He told me that I could sign 450 minutes national plan for $39.99 for two years and with a free smart phone Blackberry. I did not know any type of cell phone. For me, it would be used as a normal phone. I had no interest using cell phone other than voice communication, but I did agree to get a free Blackberry for a monthly AT&T plan for $39.99. Mr.[snip]later told me that his supervisor would contact me for confirmation of my order. Later, a guy called me to confirm my purchase (asking me for my social security number), and that was all my contact with Wirefly before getting a Blackberry in my mailbox.
A week or two, a cell phone came to my residency, That was all about my contact with Wirefly regarding this purchase. I had never made any contact with AT&T as I did not know much how cell phone plan worked and I thought
Mr. [snip] company (Wirefly) was a sub company of wireless service of AT&T. At this point, I had never visited Wirefly company web. As I have said, I knew very little about wireless plan/smart phone. To me, to have a cell phone would help me to communicate while on travel.
Later (about two weeks after) I was informed by AT&T that I should
not use the Blackberry as I did not have data plan, even then I did
not know anything about data plan, it had certainly never come to my
mind. So I had to borrow a Motorola V3 cell
phone from my friend who took out the SIM card from the Blackberry and
inserted it to his Motorola). I have been using this Motorola
since then. The Blackberry that Mr. [snip] promoted and Wirefly sent to me has no use forever.
In March 2010, I got a mail from Simplexity with a bill of $300. I was rather surprised that I had never contacted this company (neither to Wirefly for that matter) except these two salesmen on the phone regarding my AT&T plan. So I called back to Simplexity and learned that it was same as Wirefly. I explained the situation and wanted to clean up the misunderstanding. But they denied Mr. [snip]was Wirefly employee, and did not even bother to investigate this deceptive promotion/sale of Blackberry.
If Mr.[snip] had nothing to do with Wirefly then what would be his incentive to promote sales for Wirefly ? Later, I confronted to Mr. [snip] who still claimed he worked for Wirefly. Then I contacted AT&T and found out that my wireless plan was originally with data plan -- later was cancelled (all those were done by these claimed to be Wirefly employees) I had done neither of them. It was a totally conspired by Mr. [snip] and other Wirefly employee or contractors who worked for that company on
I tried to return the cell phone since it has been dusted in my
storage short after I got it, but Wirefly did not want. They insisted
that I had violate my contract with AT&T on data plan which I had
never consent to sign (I did not even know how to use it then).
A few months ago, I got a bill from NCO Financial (a collection agency) asking for $300 on Wirefly's behalf. At first, I wanted to contest/dispute the bill, later I decided to pay for it to put this whole issue behind. For me, $300 is no big deal -- I have paid over $3000 every month for all kind bills, it would not look good for having a collection agency after me for $300.
I just want people to be aware when you deal with Wirefly -- in particular those spam/salespersons, it might not be real Wirefly's policy -- but their business model certainly gives those scumbags a chance to take advantage of innocent/ignorant consumers.
It is far much better/safer to deal with carries' directly. Recently, I signed up with AT&T for two years contract with data plan for an iphone. The service is great, they even waived the activation fee.
I have been with AT&T since 2010 -- and now we have three phones family plan with AT&T. I began to enjoy using data plan and I wish I knew data plan when dealing with Wirefly -- now I know -- nobody can use smart phone (even if it is unlocked or free gift) with AT&T without signing a data plan
I have all the phone records that I had contacted with self-claimed Wirefly employee Mr. [snip], who promoted to sell me the blackberry. I confronted him after receiving Simplexty's $300 bill for violating data plan contract. Our previous phone communication records (on my google/voice accounts) are also available to assist this investigation.
My goal of this review is to get the bottom of this scam business and if possible to clean Wirefly's name. I am willing to help to track down those who were responsible to this scam/illegal sale and take them to civil/criminal prosecution.
Note, this is ongoing story with Wirefly, and I have changed the title to reflect to the fact. It started with a compliant -- but this might turn to be a compliment.
Also I decided to remove the phone number of this claimed Wirefly salesman, just in case this person would be facing criminal prosecution. This is to preserve evidence which should only be presented to the court.
Resolution Update 06/07/2012:
NCO refunded $300 back upon request of Wirefly. Wirefly Customer Online Service is great ! Wirefly_Kim is really helpful to resolve problems for customers.

The Wirefly salesman is known to public check the link, that is his number.
Wirefly_Kim on 05/31/2012:
I work at Wirefly's HQ and I am concerned that someone might have fraudulently used our company to negatively impact you. I understand that you paid the collections company, but if this order was fraudulently handled, I would like to review it for you and see if we can resolve this for you. If you would please send us your order number to firstname.lastname@example.com, I will have a customer service manager review your order and reach out to you. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Slimjim on 05/31/2012:
I restored the phone number in the complaint as it appears to be used as a business line for the purpose of soliciting.
wirefly_spam_victim on 05/31/2012:
Thanks for taking care of this issue, and I just sent an email to firstname.lastname@example.com. I look forward to clearing your company name, and mine as well.
BigAl on 05/31/2012:
Wirefly spam victim> Be sure to stop back and let us know if and how Kim has helped you. Thank you for your review.
Bee on 05/31/2012:
Kim's response is not a "cut and paste" response. While there are some words that are similar, it is not just a cookie cutter response. It is also nice that they have someone who takes the time to contact those who are having issues to let them know that they will look into it further, if provided with more information. As for following up the "real" solution, that is between the Author of this letter and the company. If the author chooses to share that information, then fine.
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/01/2012:
BigAl and Bee,
I will share my story to the end. To the fairness of all involved that includes Kim and Wirefly. I want to add that, I have phone records that this claimed Wirefly employee who contacted me. He even promised to "help" to resolve the original bill, and so he could sell me another cellphone which I was looking for.
I did call Wirefly and provided all the detail of this scam sale but it did not help.
I will help Kim and Wirefly to track down this guy and take him to court (criminal or civil fraud) -- for what he has done to me and others. Wirefly should have the resource/incentive of doing that to clean their name.
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/01/2012:
If Wirefly was not responsible for this scam, then it must have been an insider job (an Wirefly employee conspired with this Chinese guy).
Here are the tips how to find who were responsible for this scam sale:
Who brought my order to Wirefly ? As I had only phone contact with two. One was this Chinese guy and the other was his "supervisor". So if there are voice recording, telephone record inside Wirefly, it can track down easily. There should be a record how this order came to Wirefly in the first place.
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/01/2012:
Just an update,
I got an email from Wirefly
Dear XXX
Thank you for contacting our Customer Service Department.
It appears that our Finance Department closed this collections account but you still decided to pay the $300 instant savings discount charge. I would like to discuss this issue with you. Do you have a phone number that I can get in touch with you? I can also be reached at the Office of the President at: 800-444-9543. Our office hours are from 9:00am-9:00pm EST Monday through Friday.
We hope this addresses your question, but feel free to reply to this email if we may be of further assistance.
Thank you,
Wirefly Customer Service Department
And I had a very productive conversation with Stefan, and he told me that they would refund me $300.
So, I will have another update as soon as I have the money back to my credit card -- and then I will rewrite this review to become a compliment.
Way to go, Wirefly !!!!
DebtorBasher on 06/01/2012:
Thanks for keeping us updated.
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/01/2012:
Dear Stefan,
It was really nice to talk to you. Thank you so much for your kind help and that was really beyond my expectation.
I would like to get the refund to the same credit card which I used paying NCO Financial, so it would be easier for me to track on this rather unfortunate transaction.
Please pass my big thank you to Kim who responded on my3cents review -- and I am really impressed by your service.
Also, if there is anything that I can help to track this guy down, and put him on trial for fraud, please do let me know. I have evidence on him.
Thanks again for your kind help
DebtorBasher on 06/01/2012:
I would also like to offer my help in tracking that guy down if you need some help with it...I'm a professional skip tracer and that's what I do for a living. (Free of charge to you. In fact, I was the top skip tracer FOR NCO Financial when I worked for them and trained over 100 other skip tracers). Just send me an private message. Good luck.
trmn8r on 06/01/2012:
How many bad guys can there be named "Skip" to justify all those skip tracers?
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/01/2012:
I did not put skip on. For my case, there is one bad guy with last name Wang, who claimed to work for Wirefly. I think Wirefly is looking into this issue now.
I did speak to another person whom Mr Wang claimed to be his supervisor. He called me to confirm my order. I am not sure if he was aware of this scam or not. He could have been misled by Mr. Wang or his associate inside Wirefly.
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/01/2012:
Thanks for your kind offer, I think Wirefly should have enough evidence on this guy. His phone number should reveal his real identity. Web search can find a lot evidence on him who has claimed to be Wirefly employee.
trmn8r on 06/01/2012:
I'm sorry to confuse you, Wirefly, I was jesting with Debtor Basher. This is a serious issue, and I hope it is resolved quickly.
DebtorBasher on 06/01/2012:
OK Wirefly...you know where to find me if needed!
8er...you'd be surprised!
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/03/2012:
Dear Stefan,
Thank you again for your kind help, and I really appreciate it.
I just learned from the internet that paying to a collection agency would result a bad credit report/score. I was not aware that your finance dept had closed my NCO collection account when I was in contact to NCO to make the payment. I did so to put this issue rest even though I was a victim of scam of that claimed Wirefly employee,
Mr. [skip] in New York..
Would it be possible to have it refund through NCO -- I hope that would clear my name. Otherwise, It would be so bad that I have myself victimized twice all related to this [skip] and Wirefly.
And if there is anyway Wirefly, as the original creditor, could help me to clean up this collection issue, such as contacting NCO etc
or write me a letter to clear my name ? In my life, I have never dodged one single bill -- and this is why I decided to pay the bill even I deeply resented. I am a fair/responsible guy and
I care my reputation, and that of Wirefly as well.
We can not let this [skip] to rip us off -- then ruin our reputations --- so we should help each other to restore our credit/reputation.
I will continue to follow up this event and will do my best to write a fair/accurate review of Wirefly.
Again, I am deeply appreciative what you and Kim have done so far

Dear XXX,
Thank you for contacting our Customer Service Department.
Per our previous conversation on Friday, I will be working with Finance to see what is the best options to refund you $300 instant savings discount charge. I will also be working with Finance who in turn will be working with NCO to have the credit issue corrected.
Wirefly Online Support
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/05/2012:
Dear XXXXX,
I wanted to provide an update to you with regards to the ISD that you paid to NCO. I have spoken with our Finance Department and NCO has agreed to credit you back the $300 to the credit card that you used to initially pay it. Finance has informed me that NCO credited you yesterday so depending on what type of banking institution your credit card is through, it may take a day or so to post on to your account. Finance has also informed me that even though you paid the instant savings discount charge NCO did not report you to a credit bureau. Thank you for your patience in clearing up this matter, let me know if you have any further questions.
We hope this addresses your question, but feel free to reply to this email if we may be of further assistance.
Thank you,
Wirefly Customer Service Department

Hi Wirefly_Spam_Victim,
I am glad that we have been able to get this issue resolved for you, and I assure you that we are working with the authorities regarding Mr. Wang. If there is anything else that Stefan or I can due to be of assistance to you regarding this order, please do not hesitate to reach out and let us know. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to resolve your issue with us.
wirefly_spam_victim on 06/06/2012:
Hi Kim,
Thanks so much for your kind help, and as soon as I see the refund from NCO on my credit card, I will mark this compliant as resolved, and I will certainly write a review on your Customer Service. You guys are really doing a wonderful job, and it is beyond my expectation.

Great Service of Wirefly Customer Service Department
Posted by
I should change my username for this review but decided not to do so as this review (compliment) is really a follow up my previous review (compliant see http://www.my3cents.com/showReview.cgi?id=114052 for reference).
About two weeks ago, I decided to pay my bill to NCO Financial (a collection agency) for a Wirefly bill which I initially disputed but I did offer partial pay for a settlement as I felt that my poor understanding and stupidity had also caused to this problem.
After I posted my compliant, Wirefly_Kim responded with a suggestion to contact firstname.lastname@example.com. I have seen Wirefly_Kim's posts on many places, all with similar suggestions, and I thought it was just a PR effort of Wirefly.
Not at all, one day after I contacted Wirefly customer service department, I got a response. It was far beyond what I expected. Given the fact that I have paid my bill to NCO collection agency, they could have just ignored me -- as I have admitted my responsibility of this charge, but they wanted to make it right and fair to the customer, in my case to forgive me for being so stupid to believe a scam.
This scam was not really from Wirefly, the company itself. Some people took advantage of Wirefly's refer a friend program http://www.Wirefly.com/refer-a-friend/?referringdomain=wirefly_Bing
with misrepresentation of the contract. Of course, they won't target their friends -- rather to strangers who are ignorant/innocent/stupid just like me.
Wirefly has certainly regained my trust/confidence. My first effort is to try to find what I can buy on this $300 refund. I will certainly look at Wirefly whenever I need new plan/upgrade/etc.
I would also like to thank my3cents.com for providing this platform, it is not just for rant --- it has turned a complaint to a complement !!!
Thank you Wirefly_Kim, your effort to help customers is highly appreciated! You have done a great job for the customers, and for your company as well

The order I placed was $29.99. When I called to confirm order it was changed to another price. It should be a guaranteed price. The customer service agent told me what I needed to do to process my order. I called AT&T to fix the problem. So I don't see why my order was changed to a different price.. Customers should be able to talk to a customer service agent regarding a problem, not be directed back to the website to email.

Should serum tumor markers be used to guide treatment decisions for lung cancer?
'Cancer Institute' posts
What is the Utility of Serum Tumor Markers in Lung Cancer?
Does it make sense to use two or more drugs in second line therapy for lung cancer?
Deciding on surgical treatment for breast cancer
A recent article in the Seattle Times references the 2012 Dartmouth Atlas Report: Improving Patient Decision-Making in Health Care. Unfortunately their take home line, "A new report that found wide geographical variation in the use of elective surgical procedures in Pacific states reflects the preferences of physicians – not what patients want or need, the authors say," oversimplifies a complicated situation.
On my reading of the report, it stresses the values that an individual woman brings to the decision:
"Different women will prefer one option or the other, depending upon how much they value preserving their breast, their willingness to undergo radiation or more invasive surgery, and the level of uncertainty they are willing to live with in terms of their cancer recurring."
As a breast surgeon who has practiced in Seattle for almost 40 years, I don't believe that "the preferences of physicians" are the driving factor. I have a few observations to make.
It is clear that wide variations in treatment of early stage breast cancer can be seen across the USA, as the Dartmouth-Atlas data confirms. Some factors that influence this are physician related – for example, what % of their surgical practice involves treating women with breast cancer. Specialists in breast cancer or general surgeons who treat large numbers of women with breast cancer are motivated to be current in their practice patterns and to make sure that their patients are making considered decisions. The utilization of breast MRI has been shown to influence the mastectomy rates and there is regional variation in the use of that study. Distance to a radiation oncology treatment center is a factor for some women as are potential differences in out of pocket costs between mastectomy and breast conservation.
All of the local breast surgeons that I know strongly value shared decision making with their patients. We all work hard to present treatment options fairly and as neutrally as possible. If we have a patient that we think is choosing mastectomy over breast conservation out of fear – for example, fear of radiation therapy – we will encourage her to consult with a radiation oncology specialist prior to making a final decision. We believe that one of our roles is to help our patients make informed decisions. If there are clear medical reasons why one treatment is preferred, we will state that but otherwise encourage the patient to make the best decision for herself.
For example...

Apple's iTunes Radio Will Fail the Music Industry
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Outside of my June 28 article, Apple (AAPL) Should Be Ashamed of Itself, nobody has a bad word (or, in most cases, even a word) to say about the iTunes Radio deal Tim Cook shoved down the music industrial complex's throat.
Actually, it's independent labels and artists, particularly the small ones, you should feel badly for. The majors have never had a problem being led into the depths of hell by a company that couldn't care less about its fate.
If you think Cook pulled off a brilliant coup, similar to Steve Jobs taking $14.99 album sales and turning them into 99-cent a la carte singles sales, you're wrong. He miscalculated.
Ultimately, this miscalculation won't hurt Apple's business -- music downloads and even ad revenue generated from iTunes Radio is and will remain a paltry fraction of its multibillion dollar hardware juggernaut. But, as usual, the music industry, in its lack of vision, fear of change and allergy to innovation, will get the short and wrinkled end of the stick.After spending five minutes with iTunes Radio, something we knew all along becomes clear -- Apple wants streaming radio to gateway users into more music downloads. Based on the deal the indies signed with Apple (presumably the majors agreed to something similar), they're holding out hope that the company that revolutionized music listening and buying ends up right again. Why else, in an age where some artists can't stop whining about how little they receive in royalties from Internet radio, would you agree to a deal where Apple pays exactly zero for so many plays. Just review my June report -- here's the link again. If a song you stream on iTunes Radio is in your iTunes library, Apple might not have to pay a royalty. Stream a song from an album you own songs from -- but not the one you streamed -- and Apple might not have to pay a royalty. Apple was thoughtful enough to set a two songs per hour, per user cap on this highway robbery. Promotional "heat seeker" tracks -- also exempt from royalties. And, if Apple decides to use some indie music to promote talk, weather, sports and news programming -- no royalties! During the iTunes Radio beta, which could last up to 120 days (I'm unclear as to when that period begins -- or began -- and ends), no royalties.

You're receiving this CLE and Events Notice as a member of the Public Utilities Law Section.
Join us for the Section's kickoff lunch CLE to get an inside look at the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission. The Commission's Executive Secretary, Burl W. Haar, has kindly agreed to give us an overview of the Commission's work – past, present and future -- providing a unique inside perspective. Dr. Haar has served as the agency's administrative head for over 17 years. The Commission was created in 1967 as the successor to the Railroad and Warehouse Commission which include telephone regulation. The Commission's duties were expanded in 1975 to include the regulation of energy utilities when Minnesota became the 48th state to regulate the rates of natural gas and electric utilities. Since that time, the Commission's work has evolved and in many ways become increasingly complex with added responsibilities, changing industries and new jurisdictional challenges. Dr. Haar will share with us his observations and perspectives on how the Commission's work has evolved over the years, what the Commission is dealing with today and where things may be headed.
Burl W. Haar , Executive Secretary, Minnesota Public Utilities Commission
