text: 000 FXUS65 KBOU 250235 AFDBOU Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Denver/Boulder CO 835 PM MDT TUE MAY 24 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 820 PM MDT Tue May 24 2016 Tornado watch has expired at 02z. Last severe storm is staying just South of Phillips county so mainly just heavy rain and small hail across Eastern Phillips county through 9 pm. There is still isolated weaker showers and storms further west but these are not expected to become severe and most of this should diminish by midnight. Only minor changes to current grids based on evening trends. && .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday) Issued at 240 PM MDT Tue May 24 2016 As a shortwave moves overhead, several storms have formed in the moist airmass as CAPE values are between 1500 and 2000 J/kg and good shear. Dewpoints near the urban corridor are in the mid to upper 40s with higher dewpoints to the east. These storms have already produced hail stones up to golfball size, this will continue with even larger hail possible through the afternoon and early evening. The southeasterly surface winds veer to the southwest with height providing good shear for storm growth. Surface boundaries may take advantage of the shear and produce a few tornadoes this afternoon and evening. The current Tornado Watch goes until 8pm. Hi- res models continue to show the best chance for strong storms mainly from Denver County then to the north and east. Models continue to show drier dewpoints pushing up from the south, which values are in the mid 30s south of Palmer Divide. This may provide additional focus for storms. Storm activity will be pushing northeast out over the plains and likely be done by 5 pm over the metro areas then last over the far northeastern corner through 9 pm. Though some models keep storms forming over the far corner past midnight, have kept a slight chance of storms out there. Otherwise, skies will be clearing tonight over the area which may allow some patchy fog to develop, most likely along the South Platte River valley. A shortwave ridge will push overhead tomorrow over the area to bring warmer and drier weather. Only a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms are expected over the mountains and the far northern plains near the state border. Highs tomorrow will be a few degrees warmer over the plains, but a few degrees cooler over the mountains where cooler air will be dropping down from an upper low over the Great Basin. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday night through Tuesday) Issued at 240 PM MDT Tue May 24 2016 There are still strong thundestorms The next weather system in this unsettled weather pattern will begin to impact the area Thursday. Large scale lift will increase through the day. At the same time, low level moisture is expected to increase with persistent easterly flow with a theta-e ridge developing over northeast Colorado. Not exactly sure how much surface heating will occur with the large scale lift, but still enough instability near 1000 J/Kg to produce a threat of severe weather, including hail and a tornado or two depending on where low level boundaries set up. The precipitation is expected to transition to more widespread rain showers/embedded thunderstorm event Thursday night into at least Friday morning with persistent large scale lift and Q-G ascent. Will increase PoPs into the likely category for most of this period from the foothills east onto the plains. Widespread 1 inch rainfall amounts a good bet during this period but no significant hydrology issues expected at this time. Drier weather will then work in for Friday night into most of Saturday with weak subsidence. Can`t rule out an isolated storm drifting out of the mountains late in the day or evening, but overall looks like a pretty dry and mild Saturday shaping up. Sunday looks mild as well with southwest flow aloft. Enough heating and moisture to support a few more afternoon showers and storms, but coverage still limited. By Monday and Tuesday, upper level support and moisture is expected to increase again with another weak wave noted. That should support a better chance of showers and thunderstorms. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening) Issued at 820 PM MDT Tue May 24 2016 a few showers East and North of terminals so don`t expect any impacts at TAF sites tonight. Surface winds are generally light from the Northwest and this will gradually turn more Southwest after midnight. Should see less thunderstorm activity Wednesday afternoon. && .BOU Watches/Warnings/Advisories... None. && $$ UPDATE...Entrekin SHORT TERM...Kriederman LONG TERM...Barjenbruch AVIATION...Entrekin

Introducing Dean Kamen, who will deliver the Guest Keynote at Pulse 2011, "The Future Belongs to Inventors"
As an inventor and physicist, Dean Kamen has dedicated his life to developing technologies that help people lead better lives. As an inventor, he holds more than 440 U.S. and foreign patents, many of them for innovative medical devices that have expanded the frontiers of health care worldwide. The array of products and technologies invented and developed by Mr. Kamen and the engineering team at DEKA is extremely broad. Two notable breakthrough medical devices invented and developed by DEKA are the HomeChoice™ portable dialysis machine, marketed by Baxter Healthcare, and the iBOT™ Mobility System, a sophisticated mobility aid developed for Johnson & Johnson. With the Segway™ Human Transporter, Mr. Kamen aspired to improve upon the most basic form of transportation, walking, by allowing people to go farther, move more quickly, and carry more without separating them from their everyday walking environment.
Among Mr. Kamen's proudest accomplishments is founding FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology), an organization dedicated to motivating the next generation to understand, use and enjoy science and technology. In 2009, its flagship program, the FIRST Robotics Competition, will reach more than 42,000 high-school students on close to 1,700 teams in 40 regional competitions, seven district competitions, and one national championship. The FIRST Robotics Competition teams professionals and young people to solve an engineering design problem in an intense and competitive way.

Tricks and Treats and the Most Wonderful Time OF THE YEAR!!

I love this time of year.
It's been said that central Texas only has two seasons: summer and football season. If you've spent any time in a Texas summer, you might understand our zeal for the latter. Contrary to some folklore, Texans like a lot of other stuff about autumn. Here are a few more seasonal treats that inspire this Texan to put out the welcome mat for autumn, even as summer huffs the last of it's dragon breath well into November.
Let's pause for a moment because Daylight Savings Time alone can bring tears of joy to my eyes. Allow me to elaborate.
For starters, the sun comes up earlier. This is huge for runners. It's harder for coyotes and mountain lions to stalk us after daybreak. An earlier dusk means I am alert enough to not only notice, but also enjoy our famous sunsets. And – best of all: the aliens that live with me my children are tricked into an earlier reboot bedtime.
Ok, so what does all this have to do with Pulse? Nothing! But while I am celebrating being tricked into feeling like autumn gives me more time, let's celebrate a real treat of extra time for you:
Pulse 2011 call for speakers has been extended to November 23, 2010. I promise that's no trick, unless you were planning to submit a paper to the Enterprise Asset Management track. In that case, your extension treat expires on November 16.

No problem! Here are a few suggestions to help you get started on the path to joining our agenda as a featured expert.

QUESTION: How do you overcome the challenges of securing the data of people, processes, and technology across an organization today?
QUESTION: How do you approach sensitive data protection, data loss prevention, and enterprise encryption services? Do you focus in on critical areas or step back and attempt to address the enterprise as a whole?
QUESTION: Is replacing the security applications with the newest and highest rated product a cost effective or appropriate approach? Is it necessary or reasonable to attempt to change the security culture in an organization?
Consider your best laid plans to secure the data in your enterprise. Did you discover something simple yet amazing, or did you crack a complicated code to achieve results?
Here's what a few of the Pulse 2010 client presenters told us after presenting a panel of unique expert experience from three diverse organizations, including a consulting firm, a gas and electric company, and a healthcare organization.
THINK about it. And then submit a proposal to share your own unique experience in how you applied Integrated Service Management to help you overcome business challenges and deliver smarter, more secure service on any scale.
If securing the data center isn't in your realm of expertise, here are some other topics in which there is a high demand for discussion leaders at Pulse 2011.
Service architectures tailored by industry that address unique service delivery challenges including security, storage and compliance requirements.
Proposals will consist of a 100-word abstract that outlines a unique organizational experience and should include:
Submit proposals now through November 9, 2010 at ibm.com/pulse
As a bonus, all clients who present at Pulse will have the conference registration fee waived ($1995 value). In addition, the first 50 clients accepted to present at Pulse will receive a complimentary hotel upgrade. Client must pay for the basic room rate.

Drug Safety:
I literally never see or hear about drugs on campus, and in the past years I've only personally heard of one person drinking.
Mostly you can just walk or bike anywhere, but Biola provides a nice bus service that will take you to your off-campus apartment or a shopping center. Cars are nice to have, but not totally essential.
Party Scene:
"Nightlife" isn't typical at Biola. We don't have raves or parties, bars or clubs. We have events and concerts, worship services and trips to Diddy Reese!
Health & Safety:
I feel very safe on campus. The campus police and campus safety cadets are very prevalent and willing to help. Biola takes safety seriously!
Greek Life:
We don't have a Greek life!
Campus Housing:
Though this school is a bit on the more expensive side, I understand that I am getting an incredible educational environment for my money. I feel amazing community while at school and love the dorm I'm in. The RA's (residential advisors) are so much fun and end up being your mentors as well as your friends.
When you decide to attend Biola, you also decide to abide by their specific rules...which is understandable! If you don't agree with the moral standards that Biola stands for, then maybe you might want to rethink your decision in attending. I think that the school does a wonderful job adhering to the commandments laid down in the Bible through applying them with love. The faculty and administrators of the school don't want you to be unhappy, what they do want is to educate you in a fun, safe, and enjoyable environment.
Considering that Biola is a relatively small school, I think that it has a good amount of diversity. I meet students from across country and across oceans, many of my friends come from much different ethnic backgrounds than mine (such as Indonesian or Indian). Biola is continually working on developing and encouraging diversity.
Please, it's California. Need I say more? I'm from Chicago, this weather rocks!
Being runner representing Biola, I can say that many students attend games with extreme Eagle spirit. I'm not allowed on a intramural sport because I'm in a varsity sport, but they are just as equally important within campus because more students can be involved. It's a great atmosphere to be in, and it's hard to miss the 'upcoming game'.
Sometimes the technology can be a bit funky, but 95% of the time it's completely reliable. The tech and software are up-to-date on the latest industry standards, and the amount of computers on the campus and the availability is more than enough for me.
It's not a bad thing because I feel like a private, christian college is supposed to be this way. We all attend Biola because we believe similar things, but it's also true that we all have different opinions on certain subjects. Generally, we at campus trend the same way, but slightly branch out in a similar direction.
Although I believe that there should be a little bit more grace at some times, I can't complain about how much integrity Biola has. The professors and staff at Biola want to protect us and shape us into responsible adults, and they honor their code.
I still need lots of money to continue next semester, so they are ok.
The process of applying for financial aid can be tedious and it seems like it never ends, but in the end if you actually have financial need, they help you get the scholarships and grants you need. They are easy to reach by phone or going into the office.
SoCal, Biola has lovely weather. Summer year round.
Health & Safety:
we have strong campus safety presence, a good health center and they work together to provide a stable environment
Love what I get to study, professors are amazing and share their experience, bring in friends, and classes are very interactive and relevant.
Campus Housing:
I live in the oldest dorm for girls and I absolutely love it. The dorms do so many fun activities together, participate in brother sister floor events and things like that. It is the best way to build community
our school pushes students to think well and to apply their faith to their field of study
We have an office devoted to tech support and computer repairs. Wifi can be slow once in a while but its generally very reliable and It is ALL over campus. I have yet to be in a place on campus where i couldn't connect to wifi
Local Area:
I absolutely love my area because it is in a smaller town in LA but it is close to tons of things to do
For all majors except nursing you are automatically accepted into your major when you get accepted into the school, which is really nice. You need an academic and pastoral reference
I like our program, Im a sociology major so they have tons of events promoting diversity, showing future job opportunities etc
I think it depends on how much money you have. They have shuttles that will come to school for around 20 dollars and take you to the airport. Otherwise you have to drive if you're wanting to take a bus or train.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Biola boasts an amazing Christian fellowship that's focused on delivering the Gospel, not only to its students, but to the world surrounding it. In taking classes and attending lectures, students feel much more apt to take on the world, not only with renewed and strengthened faith, but also with a professional education.
Biola can be an adjustment. But once you get involved with on-campus jobs and school events, it becomes much easier. After spending time with the students and faculty, you'll come to realize that you'll never find a school quite like this. But it takes a little bit of work at first. Biola's teaching is amazing, and the community is unparalleled. Nowhere else on Earth can students strike up random conversations with anyone and be able to "Facebook-friend" them and ask them to coffee the very next day. If you value your education and want to surround yourself with God-fearing students serving each other and the Lord, then Biola is the place for you!

Tan Vinh, who writes about the happy-hour scene in Greater Seattle for The Seattle Times, answers questions from readers.
This week, we go to the mailbag to answer bar questions from a dog lover, a cocktail lover and a single looking for a date place. Questions were edited for clarity or brevity.
Q: I get out of work too late for happy hour. Where's a good deal on craft cocktails regardless of the time?
A: Sun Liquor and Sun Liquor Distillery on Capitol Hill offer stellar cocktails around $8 to $9. Here's another reason to hit there. The company's own line of gins and vodka won big at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition last month, taking double gold for its vodka, gold for its "Gun Club" gin and silver for its "Hedge Trimmer" gin.
Two other bars that offer great deals that folks don't talk about much: The Trophy Room in Belltown and Suite 410 in downtown. The Trophy Room is the backroom of the dive bar Shorty's in Belltown and opens only Thursday to Sunday.
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Boeing tankers will be delivered to Air Force late — and incomplete
- Bellevue School District seeks to fire football coach Goncharoff over scandal
- A six-pack of observations from Seahawks' OTAs: Justin Britt, Alex Collins, Tharold Simon and more
- Paul Allen ends KEXP's yearslong fundraising drive with $500,000 donation
Most Read Stories
Suite 410 is an unassuming bar from the same folks behind the martini bar Oliver's Lounge. Its cocktails are a couple of bucks cheaper than the going rate around the city.
Q: I just moved to Ballard and I love that Seattle is such a dog-loving town. There's got to be bars in my "hood" where I can take my dog.
A: The Dray in Ballard. Not only is it dog friendly, The Dray is also a good soccer bar and a good craft-beer bar, one of the all-around good neighborhood bars in the city. But if you want companions for your dog, drive to Fremont at Norm's Eatery & Ale House. Dogs are practically an accessory here. It's a dive bar for dog lovers.
The unspoken rule about dog-friendly bars is that the owners assume your dog is trained. I was at Über Tavern in North Seattle, where I saw a dog bite another patron. Uh, dogs aren't allowed there anymore. A side note, Über, which recently completed a renovation, is an excellent craft-beer bar. A must stop for beer lovers. Minus Fido, though.
Norm's Eatery & Ale House 206-547-1417 (no Web page, but it does have a Facebook page.)
Q: I've done the coffee-shop meet up with an online dater. Now I'm meeting her again in Fremont for drinks or for a casual meal. Suggestion? I'm 40 and recently divorced. Haven't done the bar scene in a while.
A: Hmm. The obvious choice is Revel, but I'm going to throw you a curve — Showa, the Japanese street-food joint that plays '80s theme music. The bar is dimly lit, but not so romantic where you might feel awkward. It's a fun, izakaya-inspired joint with lots of big windows to people watch.
The music itself is a conversation piece. The food is shared plates. Get the bacon mac and cheese, with the crispy crust and gooey decadence underneath. www.showafremont.com

Why should a shopper have to proceed through the checkout flow to find out how much shipping costs are on a site?
That's all for now. Gotta go shopping!
"How Much Will Shipping Cost?" or "Inflated Shopping Cart Abandonment"
James Fong 060001NWFX firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  checkout costs shipping 857 Visits
Hi All,
I've been reminded of yet another pet peeve of mine -- sites that aren't up front about shipping costs.
Why should a shopper have to proceed through the checkout flow to find out how much shipping costs are on a site?
And from a retailer point of view, the forced partial checkout to view shipping costs would count as an "abandoned shopping cart" in their analytics reports.
I was on a website that sold batteries the other day and it wanted me to fill in my shipping, billing, and payment information before it would tell me what the shipping costs would be. I chose not to go through the process for 3 reasons - privacy, security, and all the extra typing when I wasn't sure I wanted to register or buy from this site yet.
Here are two examples where the site helps a shopper understand the shipping costs early in the browse/buy cycle.
The first example is from L.L.Bean where an estimated shipping charge is shown as the item is added to the Shopping Bag.
The second example is from TigerDirect.ca where a shopper can enter their Postal Code to get an estimate of shipping costs while viewing the Shopping Cart.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion - Have a static "Shipping Costs" page that outlines where the store will ship to, what shipping modes are offered, and what the general shipping charges are. Also, have the ability to enter a Postal Code / Zip Code when viewing the Shopping Cart to see what the estimated Shipping Cost will be.
That's all for now. Gotta go shopping!
"Russian Checkout Roulette" or "At What Step Will I Actually Place My Order?"
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com Tags:  checkout 436 Visits
Hi All,
Here's another pet peeve of mine when shopping online -- sites that aren't clear as to exactly when you're about to place an order.
Amazon.com is clear in this regard. After clicking "Proceed to Checkout" from the shopping cart, the shopper selects a shipping address, shipping speed, and payment information. At this point in the Amazon checkout process it is clear that the shopper will have the opportunity to see the order information before the order is placed. The shopper sees the message "You can review this order before it's final" along side both "Continue" buttons.
On Futureshop.ca, after clicking "Checkout" from the shopping cart, the shopper selects a shipping address, shipping type, and payment information. At this point in the Futureshop checkout process, it is unclear whether clicking "Submit" will place the order or give the shopper one more chance to verify the order details. The last step/page is titled "Summary" as per the four step process at the top, but it is not clear as to whether it is before or after placing the order.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion - Especially since there is a group of shoppers that are still wary and tentative when shopping online, be absolutely clear as to when in the checkout process the order is placed.
That's all for now. Gotta go shopping!
"The Path to Purchase" or "How do I get off this crazy thing!?!"
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com 351 Visits
Hi All,
It's a new year and I've moved from IBM Software Services for WebSphere Commerce to the WebSphere Commerce Product Management team.
And with that move, I'm going to be more conscientious about my blog as "The Frustrated Shopper". I love to shop, which doesn't mean I buy expensive things, but that I love the thrill of the search and finding new things. But as a "power shopper", I am very much frustrated with some e-retailing sites and I will share those frustrations in my blog with the hope that other retailers can learn from these experiences and improve their online shopping experiences.
My first topic this year is "The Path to Purchase". i.e. Once you click "Checkout", most web sites don't want to distract you from completing the checkout process. Often times, I want to double check that I've got the right item in the cart, but I'm unable to click on the item to go back to the Product Details page. Or I might want to see if the item is available in another size or colour. Or I might want to perform a product comparison, or look at the related ratings and reviews, or videos. But a lot of sites, don't provide any links other than forwards or backwards in the checkout process. I understand that retailers want to put the "blinders" on you and focus your attention on checking out, but it's frustrating from a shopper point of view, when you want to make sure you have the item you want before checking out.
Here's an example of the Amazon Shopping Cart, which provides links back to product details, recently viewed items, Today's Deals, Wish Lists, etc.
Now, here's what your page looks like when you're in the checkout flow. No links for product details, recently viewed items, recommendations, etc.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion - How about providing a link to the product details that pops up a window so that the shopper doesn't actually leave the checkout page? Or if pop-ups are a no-no, how about a Web 2.0/Ajax load and reveal on the checkout page. Allowing the shopper to be 100% confident about his proposed purchase should help encourage more sales, no?
That's all for now. Gotta go shopping!
A Fractured Omni-Channel Experience
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com 177 Visits
Hi All,
My daughter has been waiting most of the year for The Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan to be released. I saw the e-mail from Indigo.ca yesterday on the day it was released and clicked through to see the price of $14.43.
We decided to pick it up after school today. Much to my dismay, the store would not honour the online price saying that the online store was a separate entity that didn't have the costs associated with the physical store chain. Furthermore, they said "you're more than welcome to order it online". Very grudgingly I completed the purchase at $17.99 (25% more than the online price) as I had my daughter standing next to me eagerly waiting to start reading it on the way home.
Let's take a look at what the omni-channel experience is like from Indigo, the last remaining national chain of physical bookstores in Canada. Indigo's mission statement from their website is "to provide our customers with the most inspiring retail and digital environments in the world for books and life-enriching products and experiences. " The Indigo site does allow you to search for physical store locations and it will display the inventory quantity of a book in a particular store. Indigo does not allow a shopper to Buy Online Pick-up in Store (even though they may have hundreds of copies in the store), neither do they allow you to Buy Online Ship-to-Store to save on shipping costs. And as mentioned, their stores will not honour the online price. That "lowest price*" tag beside the $14.43 on the product page leads to the following comment -- "When you purchase items online, we ship directly from our warehouse to you. That means we can bypass the significant costs associated with maintaining the store experience you love and pass those savings on to you. In-store, you'll find our price will match or be lower than the publisher's list price." Who buys any book at list price these days? Time will tell if shoppers will accept this fractured omni-channel experience or whether they will switch to Amazon or eBay.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion:
Shoppers want a consistent omni-channel experience that starts with consistent pricing across channels. Furthermore, shoppers want more flexible options for fulfillment such as Buy Online Pickup in Store. Those retailers that continue to resist providing an omni-channel experience may find their shoppers taking their purchases elsewhere.
That's all for now. Gotta go shopping!
Challenges with Marketplaces
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com 1 Comment 699 Visits
Hi All,
As a shopper, the Amazon Marketplace is great as I have access to a wider set of products with Amazon standing behind the orders in terms of customer service. Tracking inventory and orders though must be more challenging for Amazon than just fulfilling their own inventory. Case in point -- my son has just got excited about Transformers Animated, which came out in the 2008 timeframe and thus related merchandise is hard to find. I ordered a "Pack of 4" Transformers Animated band-aids from an Amazon marketplace vendor, whose inventory was being "Fulfilled by Amazon" and thus was eligible for free shipping with Amazon Prime (of which I am a member). I received only 1 box of band-aids instead of 4 and I called Amazon customer service. They pro-rated my refund since I received only 1 of the 4 boxes that I was supposed to receive. I noticed on the web site that there were 5 more in stock -- I kindly suggested to the customer service representative that they check those 5 to see if they are sitting in inventory as 1, or as packages of 4. Because if they are sitting in inventory incorrectly they could have 5 more orders fulfilled the same way with 5 more customers' children upset not having a Transformers Animated band-aid to cover a boo-boo. The customer service representative said they did not have the inventory and could not check it. Hmmm. What does it mean to be "Fulfilled by Amazon"? At least I tried to help the next 5 customers who purchased the same product.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion
Providing a marketplace for shoppers puts additional onus and burden on the marketplace provider to make sure inventory and fulfillment go smoothly and to have operational processes in place to review and correct issues. As a marketplace provider, are you actually making money from these additional orders, or are you losing money due to customer service representatives needing to be involved in the management of the orders?
Did I get "Free Shipping"?
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com Tags:  shipping 1 Comment 605 Visits
Hi All,
"Free Shipping" is one of the most effective online shopping incentives and many shoppers wait for sites to offer free shipping during the Christmas shopping season. In a recent purchase with Entertainment Earth on the day after Christmas (Boxing Day in Canada), they offered "Free Shipping" on orders over $100. When I was on the "Review Order" page and I looked at the shipping total, I still saw "Super Saver - Fedex Smartpost via USPS = $15.95". I was momentarily confused -- had I read the free shipping offer wrong? Did I not add enough items to the cart to qualify? It took me more than a little while to see the line that had been added to the end of the cart showing a "Promotional Shipping Rebate Coupon of $15.95", which effectively brought shipping down to $0. The Product Subtotal was adjusted down by $15.95 and when added to the Shipping of $15.95, the Grand Total was correct, but I had to do the math to confirm it.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion - "Free Shipping" is an effective conversion incentive and marketers can tweak the offering threshold to optimize sales. e.g. free shipping on orders above $29 or free shipping on orders above $49 or etc. But if you're going to offer "Free Shipping" show the Shipping as $0 so the customer sees that $0, or at least show a Shipping Subtotal minus a Shipping Discount and a Shipping Total of $0.
That's all for now. Gotta go shopping!
Did you meet your fulfillment SLA?
James Fong 060001NWFX firstname.lastname@example.com 327 Visits
Hi All,
For those following along, my Monoprice order placed on Monday, January 20th, was finally delivered on Wednesday, January 29th. Recall that I paid for USPS Priority: 2-3 business days and it arrived 7 business days later. Retailers should be monitoring their fulfillment processes to make sure that orders get out quickly AND actually make it to the shopper as "promised". To add salt to the wound, I received a request today (February 3rd) to rate the products I ordered. The form has a way for me to provide feedback on each item I ordered, but no separate opportunity to provide feedback about the website/order capture process or the order fulfillment process.

Does the Shopper or the Seller Benefit most from Personalization?
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com 193 Visits
Hi All,
With this entry, I want to take a break from pointing out possible improvements and acknowledge one particular retailer that positively surprised me in a recent transaction. With the popularity of Disney's Frozen and the "Let It Go" song, I made a purchase of sheet music from musicnotes.com for my daughter. Shortly thereafter, I received an e-mail with an incentive to update my preferences in exchange for a $6 coupon, a promise of a gift on my birthday every year, and being kept "in the loop regarding current sales and promotions ..., and product announcements". This was enough incentive for me to complete my preferences, which should benefit my search & browse experience in the future and help musicnotes.com to better target/personalize content -- win/win!

Fulfillment in Multiple Shipments or "How Many Separate Packages Will I Receive?"
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com 294 Visits
Hi All,
I recently purchased an iPad 2 and Apple fulfilled the order by drop-shipping the piece parts direct from suppliers. My order consisted of the iPad 2 plus 4 accessories, and ended up being fulfilled in 4 separate shipments. The shipments came via UPS and Federal Express. With these carriers, you need to be at home to sign and receive the orders otherwise you may have to go to some regional shipping warehouse to pick it up. The regional UPS shipping warehouse for where I live is 30 minutes away! And if I had my order shipped to my hotel while travelling on business, I might have incurred charges to receive each order. I've been charged $7-10 dollars per package received at some hotels.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion - While fulfilling the shopper's order in multiple shipments may be the cheapest solution for the retailer, give consideration to the effect on the shopper in terms of her time and cost.
That's all for now. Gotta go shopping!
Getting Prices and Order Totals Correct
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com 357 Visits
Hi All,
Boxing Day sales in Canada are a close second to Black Friday sales in the US in terms of a shopping frenzy. Each year during the online Boxing Day sales, I typically purchase a new portable external hard drive to backup the year's worth of images, video, and other personal data and store it in a fire-proof safe. Best Buy Canada has had perennial challenges keeping up with Boxing Day demand and their online waiting queue has been in place for several years. This year though I was surprised to see a difference in the e-mail I received about my purchase ($99.98) vs the online order details ($69.99). The pricing was wrong in the e-mail I received and I immediately went to check the online order details, which was correct. I'll have to double check actual charges on my credit card once the item ships.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion
How do I Specify This Order as a Gift?
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com 464 Visits
Hi All,
This year for Christmas, for relatives that lived in other cities and provinces, I opted to buy their gifts online and have them sent directly to their homes. In the past, I would have bought the items locally and then had to take the double wrapped item (once with Christmas wrapping and a second time for mailing and return addresses and stamps) to the post office to send them on their merry way. Buying online is much easier. But not all e-retailers allow the shopper to distinguish an order purchased for oneself vs one purchased as a "gift". Since I regularly name names, the e-retailer in question here is Futureshop, the seller of electronics and appliances. I purchased a Kobo e-book reader for my niece, but all I could do in the checkout process was have it sent to her address. There was no option for a gift message (e.g. Merry Christmas and a belated Happy Birthday!). And as a regular purchaser from Futureshop, I know that all that was included with the item was a packing slip, which is probably not usable for an exchange (e.g. to exchange the "hot pink" I selected for "ice blue", or to upgrade/downgrade the edition). I can understand not necessarily providing gift wrap service, or allowing me to choose when the order is shipped (so that it arrives very close to Christmas instead of 3 weeks early as I take advantage of a sale), but the only way my niece would know it was from her Uncle was the presence of my name on the billing address.
How long does 2-3 Day Shipping Take?
James Fong 060001NWFX firstname.lastname@example.com 394 Visits
Hi All,
Back to Monoprice.com, which I spoke about last time regarding shipping addresses. During that purchase, I chose USPS Priority: 2-3 Business Days. I purchased my Redmere HDMI cable on Monday, January 20th, and according to Monoprice.com, it was shipped later that day on Monday, January 20th. I thought I was in good shape as there were 4 shipping business days before the weekend, when I was going to pick up the item at my UPS mailbox. Unfortunately, it did not arrive. And as I write this blog posting, USPS shows that it still has not arrived, on the 5th business day after it was shipped. I chatted with customer service on the Monoprice.com site and they said they had to wait 7 days before they could open a ticket with USPS to find out where the package was. So, my 2-3 Business Days was really just an estimate and it could take up to 7 days! Amazon Prime regularly delivers packages to my UPS mailbox in 2 days or less. As a customer, I am not happy that I paid for expedited shipping and I did not get expedited service.

If a price changes on a website and no one is notified ...
James Fong 060001NWFX email@example.com 150 Visits
Hi All,
Most shoppers are price sensitive and looking for good deals. If a price changes on a website and no one is notified, was the price change effective? There are various ways that retailers inform shoppers of price changes -- physical flyers, digital flyers, promotional e-mails, tweets, etc.. But most of these forms are general notices meant for the general public. Even promotional e-mails are probably formulated for different customer segments.
Does your favourite retailer communicate differently if prices have changed for items in the shopping cart, or saved for later, or in a wish list? When Amazon customers view their cart, Amazon looks for any price changes in their cart or items saved for later, and alerts them that prices have changed. This is a great way to see that there are discounts available now.
Frustrated Shopper Suggestion:
Understand which customer segments are more price sensitive than others and help them to understand when prices change on items. This suggestion is not to create a discount specifically for that shopper, but to inform that shopper of a price change that has been already made in general. If a price changes on a website and an interested customer is notified of the change, there is a better than good chance that notification will result in a sale!
That's all for now. Gotta go shopping!
Marketplaces - Duplicate Products and SKUs
James Fong 060001NWFX firstname.lastname@example.com 409 Visits
Hi All,
Marketplaces are great as they provide more fulfillment options to the shopper. Different vendors may have different business models and thus pricing can vary and shipping distance and options can vary as well. e.g. I might be able to find Product A from Vendor B who is closer to me and thus the shipping is faster and cheaper. But it is very frustrating when the same product exists more than once in the catalog, or when different formats of the same product exist separately and are not connected. e.g. If you're viewing the DVD version, the marketplace should make you aware that there is a Blu-Ray version available as well. Look at the two examples below from the Amazon Marketplace. The DVD and Blu-Ray SKUs exist separately in the catalog -- the Blu-Ray product page (Image 1) makes the shopper aware that there is a DVD version. The DVD product page (Image 2) does not make the shopper aware that there is a Blu-Ray version. I happened to find the DVD product page first and executed a separate search to find out whether the Blu-Ray version existed or not.

I was not about to spend an inordinate amount of time trying to navigate a whole site looking like this.

Interesting story in the Star Tribune, on "Dermatology's Tug of War."
Its primary theme – claims about a shortage of dermatologists – has been making headlines for a long time. Some doubt whether there's a real shortage. (See dermatologist Orin Goldblum's comments in this story, for example.)
But the secondary theme is what intrigues me: of the dermatologists in practice, "Many devote a considerable part of their practice to cosmetic procedures, which tend to pay much better than treating malignant moles or other medical conditions," according to the story. Further excerpts:
Cosmetic dermatology takes time away from more important medical issues, said Dr. Spencer Holmes, a dermatologist at Park Nicollet and adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota Medical School. It is ethically wrong, in my opinion.
The cosmetic work has contributed to a noticeable increase in dermatologists incomes. From 1995 to 2012, incomes for dermatologists rose nearly 50 percent, while primary care physicians income rose about 10 percent. Dermatologists now earn about $471,555 on average, the fourth-highest earners in American medicine, according to the Medical Group Management Association in Colorado.
But some wonder whether skin cancer and malignant moles are taking a back seat to a youth and beauty-obsessed culture wanting Botox, chemical peels and lip augmentation. Cosmetic dermatology now fills 20 to 40 percent of some doctors schedules in the Twin Cities."

I am grateful for the generosity of Dr. Crutchfield, such is he, for without the duty owed on lucrative procedures, folks cant generate the same tax income on other goods. Of course creating non-HC jobs in the process. Just sayin:
"Some have described cosmetic dermatology as entrepreneurial medicine, a label that Crutchfield likes. His office employs 40 people, which he describes as contributing to the health and welfare of the state by paying corporate and other taxes."

David Tucker, executive director of the Enhanced 911 Board in Vermont, said this is the second such trial launched during the year.

"Orthodox Vatican" Top 5 Page for this destination Aghion Oros (Mount Athos) by Assenczo
Aghion Oros (Mount Athos) Travel Guide: 41 reviews and 271 photos
Aghion Oros sounds mysterious enough to warrant a visit. The fact that it is forbidden for women (I have not heard of any other territory on Earth with such conditions) makes it even more intriguing for the already curious. Moreover, there is the impression that this might be another country because you need a visa as if it is not part of Greece, controlled by its government. Calling it a visa is a bit of a hyperbolae but I guess this term gives more weight and importance to the people who issue it. Once I was on the territory of the Zograf Monastery, which is Bulgarian, completely the opposite message was advertised quite aggressively. The GREEK flag was set up practically in front of the main entrance albeit in the service quarters. I heard the argument that this was useful for the safekeeping of the many treasures that the monasteries possess, a line that does not sound convincing to me.
My trip had a little insider twist to it since I happened to travel on the ferry and than walk all the way up to the monastery in the company of two fellows who were theology students and had been many times to the monastery, thus knew the monks, the rules and hidden musts. One of them was quite happy to assume the role of a guide to the uninitiated and tell us what the expectations of the monks were. Since we had nothing else to do anyway, we gladly followed the recommendation to help with the preparation of preservatives for the winter. For me it was fun, reminding me of a bygone era, taking place in more than authentic ambience in the monastery kitchen with the huge fireplace etc. As a sharp contrast to this sheepish follow-up of the orders in the secular sphere was the reaction of my fellow travelers to the requirements related to the spiritual ritual. First, when we met the monk who was supposed to greet us, the thing to do was to kiss his hand. I tried but he was not overly enthusiastic. My road colleagues skipped it altogether. Next morning, I was up for prayer at four o'clock but the rest of the travel party gradually oozed in the temple one hour late. Not even feeling guilty, they were standing there as if made of cast iron and did not budge to cross themselves; kissing the icons – out of question! Well, this is not the way to make friends with the clergy. Jokes aside this was the young generation of Bulgarians, so far away from the Church with its traditions and codes of behavior, who could not find a reference point and perform a ritual for the sake of the ritual at least.
It is obvious that there is (and has been for very long time) something to be guarded there. Every pier, deftly placed at the access points to the various monasteries on the peninsula has imposing tower to check unwanted guests. The Zograf one looked deserted but a horse was giving out a sign of a presence, whether sufficient or not it is another matter.
Ferry is the only way to get around. This statement is true and not quite at the same time. I saw monks riding speed boats with lots of zest for velocity. The odd impression was amplified by the weird look of long beard and baggy clothes being tossed aside by the wind of acceleration.

A Seattle man made thousands of dollars running an "organized criminal enterprise" in which he beat and intimidated girls and young women into working as prostitutes, according to criminal charges filed Friday by King County prosecutors.
A Seattle man made thousands of dollars running an "organized criminal enterprise" in which he beat and intimidated girls and young women into working as prostitutes, according to criminal charges filed Friday by King County prosecutors.
Since being arrested and charged last year with promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor, Shacon Barbee has been the focus of a continuing investigation by Kent police. That investigation resulted in the addition of nine charges against Barbee on Friday, according to King County prosecutors.
Senior Deputy Prosecutor Sean O'Donnell said in charging documents that since 2007 Barbee led an "organized criminal enterprise" in which he used "charm, intimidation and violence to recruit and manage females."
Barbee, 32, was charged Friday with leading organized crime, three counts of promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor, two counts of promoting prostitution and tampering with a witness.

Barbee is also charged with three counts of first-degree theft for allegedly falsifying details about his illegal income so he could collect more than $32,000 in disability payments from the state Department of Social and Health Services and the Social Security Administration after he reported that he was mentally ill.
"Barbee accumulated significant financial gains from this unlawful activity, which he then used and invested to further his enterprise," O'Donnell wrote in charging paperwork.
Barbee is a Level III sex offender who has a long criminal history, including convictions for second-degree child rape and communicating with a minor for immoral purposes.
In the latest charges, he is accused of forcing three young women into working as prostitutes and then pocketing all of the money they earned. On most days, each woman earned more than $1,000 working as a prostitute, prosecutors say.
According to charges:
One 17-year-old girl, who had worked for Barbee the longest, was entrusted to recruit new prostitutes through online social-networking sites. The girl started working as a prostitute for Barbee at age 16.
An 18-year-old woman told police she started working for Barbee in May 2010, when she was a juvenile. She said Barbee got her a room at a motel near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and forbade her to leave. The woman said she advertised sex on backpage.com, an online advertising site that recently has come under fire from Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn for running ads from juvenile prostitutes.
A third women, a 20-year-old, said she met Barbee in early 2010 and worked for him for about eight months. The woman claimed she averaged 10 to 15 "dates" every night, with instructions from Barbee to charge $150 for sex. The woman told investigators she earned an average of $1,500 each night.
The 20-year-old woman said she also advertised on backpage.com. She said Barbee expected all of his prostitutes to earn $1,000 each day in online work.
Barbee allegedly beat the women with a leather riding crop, which he called his "pimp hand," prosecutors said. The women said they were forbidden from sleeping and talking to people without his permission.
Barbee's cellphone records revealed detailed information about how he ran his operation, O'Donnell wrote in charges.
Earlier this year, police searched Barbee's storage unit and found a safe containing $18,300 in cash, $10,806 in receipts from high-end retailer Gucci and a large amount of women's lingerie.

"Beaune" Top 5 Page for this destination Beaune by Mikebond
Beaune Travel Guide: 139 reviews and 429 photos
Beaune is quite a town of Bourgogne not far from the regional capital city Dijon. It was the habitual residence of the Dukes of Bourgogne until the 14th century. In spite of its dimension, it is very rich of monuments and museums and is also very renowned for its wines.
I visited Beaune with my parents in 2002. We overnighted there on the route to the Marais Poitevin and we enjoyed it a lot. Follow me through my tips to explore the beauties of this town!

The sequel to Dus (2005) is all set to be put into action. News has it that this time the director will be Samir Karnik and not Anubhav Sinha. The talk started during the time of Yamla Pagla Deewana when Nitin Manmohan, the producer, went on a lookout for a director. Karnik came into the picture as he was the director of Yamla Pagla Deewana. Apparently, upon hearing Nitin wonder aloud about how the story of Dus could proceed, Karnik had an interesting idea to continue the story within a short five minutes!
With that fast of a response, there is no doubt that he got selected to be the director of the sequel for the quite successful Dus. Karnik has confirmed the news as well.
He further mentioned that there will be a strong effort to keep the original case in the sequel as well. He is a strong believer that films loose their charm if the cast keeps changing. A different cast would create a disjoint in the continuity of the plot and characterization, making for a bad 'sequel'.
Dus included Abhishek Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Suniel Shetty, Zayed Khan, Pankaj Kapoor and Shilpa Shetty.
All the other details are yet to be finalized considering that Nitin is busy with Char Din Ki Chandni at the moment.
We, at BollyCurry, are eagerly awaiting for this sequel and wish the team all the very best!
