MEMPHIS (SMU) - The SMU men's soccer team dropped a 3-2 decision to American Athletic Conference opponent Memphis on Wednesday evening at Mike Rose Field. The loss dropped the Mustangs to 2-2-2 in conference play, while the Tigers improved to 3-4 in league action.
SMU (3-9-2) got the scoring started in the 16th minute as junior Andrew Morales was assisted by sophomores Eddie Puskarich and Will Smith on a shot inside the six-yard box. The Mustangs held that lead until the 38th minute when the Tigers' (9-6-1) Mark Sherrod scored a pair of goals in just over a minute's time, off a header and a penalty kick, to take a 2-1 advantage into the locker room.
The Mustangs wasted little time finding the equalizer as Memphis was whistled for an infraction of its own inside the 18-yard box. Freshman Deshawon Nembhard was taken down on his way to goal and sophomore Alfred Koroma stepped up to the spot and found the back of the net for his team-leading fourth goal of the season.
The match winner for the Tigers came in the 59th minute as Jordan Klipsch connected on a loose ball in the box following a corner. Memphis finished with a slight 6-5 advantage in corners after leading the Mustangs in that category, 5-0, at one point in the match.
SMU outshot the Tigers, 14-10, but Memphis held the narrow 6-5 edge in shots on goal.
Koroma had a pair of shots on frame, while Morales, Nembhard and junior Damian Rosales each added one. Senior Jaime Ibarra registered three saves.
The Mustangs are back in action on Saturday when they travel to South Florida to take on the Bulls in American action. Kickoff is slated for 6:30 p.m. CT. Live stats and video links are available at SMUMustangs.com.

Livemike, what makes you think it's entrepreneurs responsible for improved standard of living (you referred to productivity so maybe you aren't making the claim of std of liv) while the government regulation that grew alongside and public sponsored R&D is not? Since when does removing rules and referees lead to better or safer sport for the participants? You can attack the military complex, but without it you have dueling private armies and the injustice, inefficiencies, and extra bloodshed that come with that. We are no longer a nation with tons of land just over the horizon so that anyone with disagreement or who wants a fair shot can keep moving on. Every nation has immigrants. This nation, among other things like decent economic promise (helped by our natural resources) has had stability and religious freedom, two items that attract immigrants (but again immigration is natural). Why should I accept your claim on property? I didn't sell you my rights to it. I don't even think you have greater rights to land than anyone else and certainly not native Americans. Point is that without a regulation and laws, we'd have a lot more disputes and a lot less respect for the property of others. Why do you ignore that the Fed has reigned over great stability and the breaking down of successful rules instilled from the lessons of the Depression has again resulted in leverage commitments on paper that cannot be met, and surprises left and right, especially with so much secrecy? Attacking controlled inflation? Really? I have lots of criticisms on our current system. That military and court system does support the business/trader class over the worker class (more so today than in past decades), but part of the problem is the set of broken laws favoring the wealth begets wealth advantage in markets that leads to increasing degrees of lopsided wealth (legal rights) distribution absent regulation and rules on that. As for paying fair share, no way the wealthy elite are paying for the power and privilege our laws and military provides them. Many games have reset conditions in order to maintain competitiveness and fairness. It's why seasons start afresh, races starts back at the line, board games are started from the initial position with fair distribution, etc. Where is the reset button in our economy? How many people start many places back and dollars short and never really had a fair chance (although some overcome odds or excel particularly at trading or similar skill)?
The Myth of the Free Market
As numbing news of multibillion dollar boondoggles, scandals and swindles becomes a daily occurrence, now is the time to take a close look at the right-wing propaganda machine's favorite canards about capitalism and the free market. In the wake of the worst banking crisis since the Great Depression and in the throes of a prolonged recession brought on by rogue financial institutions operating outside a regulatory system supposedly designed to prevent the very kind of reckless behavior and profiteering that led to the current doldrums, here is a short list of myths perpetrated by the corporate greed-is-good culture – myths that taken together add up to The Big Lie that is destroying the American economy, the middle class, and the good character of a once-great country.
Let's begin with an axiom the US Chamber of Commerce, Koch Industries, Inc., Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Company, and Bain Capital, to name but a few, would all wholeheartedly endorse: state interference ("regulation") is inimical to economic growth, job creation, and prosperity. And this corollary: a free Market is the best and only way to achieve the greatest good for the greatest number.
Myth #1: There is no such thing as a free market, never has been, never will be. All markets are regulated, but some markets are regulated in the interest of the many and others in the interest of the few. The American economy is now clearly and indisputably regulated by the few and for the few who now control the wealth of the nation.
Proof: The top 20% own all but about 15% of the privately held money and assets in this country. The top 10% of taxpayers owns roughly 72% of the wealth and over 90% of the stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. Between 1981 and 2005, federal taxes on business declined 43 percent. Corporate income taxes accounted for about one-quarter of federal revenues in 1950; today, corporations contribute a mere 6% to the Treasury.
Myth #2: Market economies are hardly a guarantee of peace. The United States boasts by far the world's largest military establishment. Much of the money spent in the name of national security and war waging goes to private corporations through hundreds of thousands of procurement contracts (around 400,000). For FY2002 through FY2008, nearly half of all federal expenditures went to eight federal departments and agencies involved in national and homeland security – including the servicing of war-incurred debt.
Proof: The US is still enmeshed in two protracted wars we initiated (Afghanistan and Iraq). Not counting the intelligence services and "black budget", the US accounts for 43-45% of total world military expenditures every year. According to the prestigious Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the United States accounted for $19.6 billion of the $20.6 billion global increase in military spending in 2010 – fully 96% of the total. The "military-industrial complex" has corporate and defense tentacles reaching into virtually every political constituency. DOD alone maintains nearly 5,500 bases and military sites in the U.S. and around the world
Myth #3: Market economies are based on competition and therefore guarantee efficiency and prosperity.
Proof: At least 95 percent of the national debt is war-related. The Defense Department absorbs 25-30 percent of the federal budget, depending what is counted and who's doing the counting. Two-thirds (68 percent) of all federal government civil and military employees are involved in national security and war related activities. If you add the $100 billion or more for the two wars we are still fighting, the $80 billion for the intelligence budget, and various other defense-related expenditures, that figure is actually much higher – roughly one-half the entire federal budget for the period 2002-2008.
Myth #4: The Constitution prescribes that corporations are no different from natural persons, with the same right to freedom of speech and expression as you and me, which means, among other things, that Chevron and WalMart can spend as much money as they please to manipulate public opinion and influence the outcome of elections.
Proof: The Constitution says nothing about corporations, much less does it declare ad absurdumthat corporations are people. Not until 1886 in the case of Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad, 118 U.S. 394, did the Supreme Court make this astonishing discovery. Never mind that it's preposterous to equate natural persons and corporations: the die was cast. The 1886 precedent-setting decision – not the Constitution – is the sledgehammer the Supreme Court has used to smash all federal legislation aimed at limiting corporate campaign spending to bits. The most recent example Citizens United decision, is also the most lethal for democracy because it puts Congress and the presidency on the auction block.
In reality, no democracy is immune from manipulation by the few. Or, for that matter, subversion. During the Cold War the fear of subversion focused on Communism and the danger from below; today, there is no parallel fear of subversion, but ironically the real danger is from above now and it is greater by far than it was then.
The extreme costs of political campaigns combined with the extreme inequality in wealth means that a very few individuals who control vast amounts of money can make or break virtually any candidate for high office, including incumbents. If you don't believe me, ask former Senator Russ Feingold of Wisconsin – a latter-day Solon who tried to reform our disastrous campaign finance laws and was defeated in 2010 by Ron Johnson, a business executive and prominent member of America's entrenched plutocracy, who poured eight million dollars of his own money into winning a Senate seat.
Conclusion: A vibrant market economy will not be long-lived or "sustainable" in the absence of smart regulation designed to accomplish two primary aims – wealth creation and social justice. In the pursuit of wealth and justice, it is the role of the state to balance these two aims.
Regulation is not the enemy of incentive, invention, or innovation. Nor is it incompatible with progress, profits, or personal gain. In a properly ordered republic, business makes the money and the government makes the rules. If the federal government persists in allowing oil companies, investment banks, and front groups for billionaires to make the rules free of public scrutiny and transparency, the very competition so vital to a market economy will be ever more constricted and joblessness will become chronic rather than "cyclical", as companies cut jobs here at home, replace workers with robots, and go abroad in search of cheap labor, lax labor laws, and tariff-free access to fast-growing markets in Asia and elsewhere.
Meanwhile, a dysfunctional Washington dithers, the rich get richer, the middle class gets poorer, the poor lose hope, elections are a sham, and the American Dream dies a slow but certain death.

The Cheney Cemetery Association surprised me with something last week I never considered receiving.
I was asked to speak at their annual meeting Friday at the United Methodist Church, something not unusual. I have spoken to groups and classes during my tenure at the Cheney Free Press and am always ready to do so. It's a fascinating career being in the media, despite the reputation and the criticism – sometimes deserved – we receive.
The association asked me to speak about how we develop topics for stories. After my talk I stayed for the rest of the meeting because, having attended a p...

How to Escape from Scientology
The Common Route
Darrin Klimek/Digital Vision/Getty Images
Now suppose you're not famous: How exactly do you get away from the Church of Scientology? Logic states that you just say "Thanks for all the crazy" and wave goodbye, but logic has no place in the world of Travolta and Hubbard.
Jefferson Hawkins, a journalist who left the church and wrote about it, has an entire website dedicated to helping others leave Scientology behind. If you read it from the viewpoint that Scientology is a valid, normal religion like any other, it's absolutely batshit crazy and will blow your mind, because if Scientology is a valid, normal religion, then why would anyone go to these insane lengths to stop being a member?
Hawkins recommends that you first distance yourself -- say you're taking a break, or maybe you have to go to Thailand as part of this sex tourism group you've recently founded -- but in no way speak out against Scientology. You don't want people thinking you're up to something, like maybe leaving the church. That's how you get cut off or have alien ghosts jammed in your bum while you're sleeping. Right in there!

Commence ghost insertion.
Hawkins' next recommendation is that you read things written by people who have never put their tongue inside Tom Cruise's lower extremities, either metaphorically or literally. Basically read news and information by people who are non-Scientologists. He even recommends practicing Scientology, if you so choose, apart from the church. Live the life of a normal person so you can judge for yourself whether or not Scientology is a total sack of sloppy shit.
Basically you kind of have to ooze away like a slug in the night. No sudden movements, no violent outburst, not a peep or a fart out of place, and then when you're nestled in a warm, damp location away from the influence of Battlefield Earth, you just stay there. Stay calm and quiet as long as you can. The best way to escape Scientology is to put your tail between your legs and roll over in the hopes that it won't even bother to hump your placid little carcass and will instead keep on moving, forgetting that you were ever there.
Its Repercussions
Michael Blann/Digital Vision/Getty Images
Here's the tricky part: Say you're just like me. You write funny articles for Scientology's version of Cracked. They probably call it "Psychiatry" or something like that so they can all have a good chuckle over it. And you're writing your article, "The 7 Most Unexpected Ways to Steal the Life Savings from Some Schmuck," and it's pretty great, and then you realize at the end, oh shit, this is depressing. What if I'm not haunted by the ghost of an alien that was strapped to a volcano by galactic overlord Xenu a bajillion metric years ago? What if most of John Travolta's films are actually poor quality? I think I need some time away. And then you walk out the door.
According to numerous ex-staff members of Scientology organizations, shit just isn't that easy. Don Jason used to work at Scientology's Clearwater facility and was the #2 man there. After he left, he says the church literally tracked him down and took him back, putting him on one of their bizarre cruise ships and locking him in his room. Gary Morehead, former chief of security, says he was the one who developed the procedure for hunting down and spying on ex-members of the church and had lost track of how many people he brought back after 75 or so.

"Back! Back to ironing Travolta's thongs! Back!"
So while it's all well and good to say you want to leave the church, you need to remember that the church may not want to leave you, especially if you had any value to them. As someone paying them an exorbitant fee to have a box hooked up to your head that helps read how many Thetans and tube steaks are in your brain, they probably won't care if you vanish in the night. But if you had any responsibilities whatsoever, if you were ever entrusted with any information or secrets or carrying around David Miscavige's solid gold scrotum oscillators (just assume they exist), you may be in for an uphill battle.
Since the church will open all your mail if you live in one of their compounds and keep records of things like bank accounts and credit card numbers, your ability to leave is not nearly so great as their ability to hunt you down once you go. Then they have access to all the "counseling" sessions you were a part of, including all the transgressions and confessions you've admitted to, so there's some good blackmail fodder in case you want to struggle once they do find you again. Plus you'll lose contact with family and friends, and, of course, you're going to be damned for eternity. Shit.
shvili/iStock/Getty Images
"I can't be an immortal, superpowered alien now? Dang it!"
Alternately, you can leave through "official" channels called "routing out," which basically means you get tortured in the most mild of ways, possibly for months, while you are forced to explain over and over again why you want to leave, what transgressions you have committed, and how you are a bad seed and the church is great and totally not at fault for you sucking so much. You do some excessive manual labor at an isolated location for several months, then you sign some papers agreeing to never say anything and you're good to go, you suppressive person, you.
I'm not a theologian, so who am I to say that a subpar sci-fi author from the 1950s who had an extensive and well-documented history of shady dealings didn't really think up a legitimate religion despite its also extensive and well-documented history of shady dealings? All I will say is that, like any religion, it's certainly easy enough to walk away from, assuming you can walk very fast and cover your trail like a Native American hunter during frontier times. If you're a Scientologist thinking about leaving, go ahead and try it today! If you make it, comment on my article before they come for you so we all can see how well you're doing, and if I may be so bold, maybe you'd like to look into Raelianism.

Hi MrsGarden an bobthegardener many thanks for your advice, sorry for the delay in responding.

May 30, 2008
Bob Ernst, Head Coach
"Today was great. The kids are really focused in on what they need to do here. They trained really hard in the last week to make a statement that they're not just participants here, they're here to row and to win. It's fun.
"People have been asking me how we got here. We have a great team. This is a team deal. If we do well tomorrow then it's going to be interesting."
On the varsity eight:
"They did what they needed to do. This is the first time this combination has raced together and I told them that they needed to race like they had to win it. And they tried to win it. They kind of lost focus a little bit in the third 500, probably because they were up and maybe they didn't expect to be. Now, the challenge for them tomorrow is they have to row the semifinal like they intend to win it. They have to try to win it to make it to the final. It's one day at a time now. The good news is we're not racing again here this afternoon."
Are the crews that had to race again in Friday afternoon's repechage at a disadvantage?
"Let's put it this way, it certainly doesn't do them any good. We're going to come out here and paddle around for 40 minutes this afternoon while some other crews will come out here and race for their lives this afternoon."
On the second varsity eight:
"They had a little bit of a slow start. Actually, I think it will benefit them to row in the reps tomorrow. They realize that they have to row that to win, too. Then they get in the final and see what happens. This is very normal for our crews, whether it's the IRA or here. As long as they keep positive attitudes and keep getting better every race, that's exactly what we want. It's good that they did well for having first-time out lineups. It will be really good for them to have another race tomorrow and do well and get ready for the finals."
On the varsity four:
"It was a great way to end the first day, with the fours winning their heat. Our four is basically, except for the coxswain, the same crew that's raced together all year and won the Pac-10. Those kids did great."
Isabelle Woodward, Varsity Eight Coxswain
"We had a really good start and that's going to give us a lot of confidence going into the next round. We got up early, and that's really good, and we just need to work on that middle section. We were getting a little bit tired and maybe a little bit unsettled since we were up. We really need to just work on that for tomorrow.
"I have been in the four all season. It definitely is very different from being in the eights. In terms of nerves, I know we had the tools to go out and do it. I'm more nervous on land. Once we get out on the water, I'm pretty comfortable.
"Definitely, we wanted to get up early. The first 35 strokes are really important and we got up early and did what we needed to do there. We were really happy with that."
How vital was it to avoid having to row again Friday, in the afternoon repechage?
"It's so important in terms of energy. It's draining to have to do a whole extra race. It's really important to stay out of that and we did that, which is good. I think it will give us a little bit of extra energy going into the final."
Kara Farquharson, Varsity Eight Stroke
"We put in a lot of work between Pac-10s and now and we are a lot more focused and ready to go. It's always the plan to try and get first. We wanted to have the best race we could today."
On the changes to the crew since the Pac-10s, including new coxswain Isabelle Woodward:
"Heather (Young) and I were the stern pair in San Diego. We've done so many lineup changes throughout the year that I think we're pretty versatile. Isabelle's done a great job. She coxed the jayvee for a while this year and a lot of the girls had here then. She really doing a great job."
Alysha Koorji, Second Varsity Eight Coxswain
"We had sort of rough first 750 and then we found our rhythm right then and just got out of there. It was a really good race, a fight all the way down. No one ever got scrambled or freaked out at all, which is good. We just have to be better at finding our rhythm in the first 750 than we did this morning.
"Brown was up, Wisconsin was up and Virginia and Washington were going back-and-forth, back-and-forth. Then we got a little bit of momentum and just like walked through the field approaching the 1,000-meter mark. We should be able to carry that over tomorrow. There's a lot of fight left, a lot of energy."
Kim Armstrong, Second Varsity Eight No. 2 seat
"It was a great heat to build on. We didn't necessarily have the greatest first 750, but our heads stayed in the race and we kept pressing throughout the entire 2,000 meters. We're really excited. We're going to build on what we learned from today and bring it all tomorrow.
"We have specific moves down the course and Alysha makes designated calls for us. I think it's just a factor of everyone putting their heads together and moving together. It takes all eight of us to go.
"It is a new lineup, but we've been practicing with these girls all year. I'm just really excited that we were able to keep our heads in the race and just continue to move on everyone.
"The morale is really high. We are excited and grateful at the opportunity to come to nationals, so we're here to show them why they gave us a bid."
Rachel Powers, Varsity Four Stroke
"It felt great. I'm really happy with how we did. It felt really fluid coming down the course. We've really been trying to relax and keep it smooth the whole way down and I think we accomplished that this time. We're totally ready to go for the next race.
"We had a pretty good start. For the first part we were even with Yale and then after we settled we just starting pushing away. Our coach, Colin (Sykes) kind of put the pressure on us this morning. He stressed how important it was that we got first in this heat so we could go straight to the finals and not have to race tomorrow. It feels good to be able to kind of relax for a day and know that we're going to come out here and get another practice and just kind of get geared up for the next race.
"Since these are a lot of boats that we haven't raced before, from the East Coast and Midwest, we're really ready for anything. It give us a good perspective on things. I feel like if it was against boats that we had raced before and that we had beaten before we might get a little bit overconfident about things."
Maggie Cheek, Varsity Four Coxswain
"We were super relaxed at the starting line. We were going in to win the heat and we just did exactly what we needed to do. In the first 20 strokes we were on the bow ball and I couldn't see any of the crews from probably 500 meters down. I couldn't see any other crews for the rest of the race.
"We know what we need to do for Sunday. We need to have a stronger third 500 and a stronger sprint. We know that.
"It's a really good advantage to not have to race Saturday. I've never been in this position before, but it's definitely nice to just relax. We have one less race to worry about. All we have to focus on is the final and all the other crews have to focus on getting into the finals.
"I just got into this boat and it is an undefeated crew that won the Pac-10 championship. I think it took this race and after this race to feel really comfortable in there with them."

In case you didn't know, Valentine's Day is tomorrow. In honor of the saint, or at least his day, Keystone Resort will host the second-annual Love on the Lifts speed dating event set for Friday, aka tomorrow, aka Valentine's Day.
Keystone will give singles the chance to meet their perfect match with a series of 11-minute speed dates aboard the River Run Gondola. Participants will enter through the "singles" line, an industry norm for skiers and riders enjoying the mountain solo, and be matched for a ride to the mountain's summit.
Once they reach the top of Dercum Mountain, newly matched singles can choose to spend the day together. Following a day across the resort, would-be lovers can reconnect at the evening's Valentine's Party at 9280' Taphouse in River Run Village. The match-making begins at 10 a.m. at the base of the River Run Gondola.
For those, like us, that have already found love, Keystone Resort offers other ways to celebrate this Valentine's Day. There's a Savor the Slopes event, a month-long rotating showcase featuring the best of Keystone's signature restaurants.
This week's events are dedicated to wines, and you can learn more about delicate and delicious French wines at Friday's A Taste of French Wine at the Keystone Ranch. Reservations are required and may be made by calling 970-496-4386. All Savor the Slopes events begin at 4:30 p.m. and are $25 per person.
There's also more on Friday with wine, spirits and chocolate at Warren Station's For the Love of Wine, Whiskey and Chocolate event, beginning at 8 p.m.
Other romantic après options include a fireside beverage at the Ski Tip Lodge, sipping original cocktails at the Tenderfoot Lounge or aboard a horse-drawn sleigh. If you're looking to avoid crowded dining rooms on Friday evening, a lunch for two at the Alpenglow Stube is a nice alternative. The Stube also offers a Sunday brunch at 11,444', accessed by two gondolas.
There's also a Valentine's Weekend spa treatment at the Keystone Lodge & Spa. Choose from a Limon-Cello Massage using certified pure, refreshing lemon essential oils topped with a short glass of limon-cello liqueur or a Chocolate Kiss Facial using an all natural chocolate masque with a three-part lip plumping treatment. For more details, and a full menu of spa treatments, visit keystoneresort.com/spa for options and pricing.
Stay at Keystone this Valentine's Day weekend and get up to 33% off vacation rentals starting at $137. Package benefits also include free night skiing on day of arrival, free ice skating admission and 20% off skate rentals.

How can I help my 17 year old daughter deal with anxiety problems?
My daughter is going to be starting college this June, 2008. She is a very smart girl, however, she has always experienced somewhat of anxiety. For example, when she was an infant I could not take her where there was a lot of noisy people. She just cried and cried. When she was with a group for homecoming dance and they all went to a restaurant she called me and said that just as soon as she went in her chest felt heavey and she was very anxious. Now, it seems to be getting worse. I have sent her to a doctor but I would like to know what medications that are not addictive that I can request. I do not think a child should take zanex nor does she want to get on an antidepressant because she is not depressed. Last night she told me that she has got to do something because she feels out of control. This is a child that is absolutely gorgeous, extremely popular, very gifted in school who scored 1350 on SAT in the 9th grade. The medication frightens me because her dad has very addictive personalities and I see that in my daughter. I would like to have some options so my daughter doesn't think I am just ignoring her request.In Topics: Anxiety

Ok, This is Weird but Hear Me Out Review by Danielle
I got this shade hoping it would be a dupe for Nooner from UD's naked 3 palette. It is a near exact dupe swatched on the skin, for those interested.
But the reason I'm writing this review is to tell you this: This is the best eyebrow shade I have ever used.
I don't know why. It looks so purple in the pan! I would never have tried it if I weren't lazy and it happened to be the closest thing I had to hand.
Anyway, I am very fair (nw 15) with light ash brown eyebrows, and I have a problem with most eyebrow pencils and powders being too warm or too dark and looking strange. But this shadow somehow works perfectly with the cool tones in my eyebrows. It doesn't look purple at all on the brows, just a cool, light brown that matches and enhances my natural coloring.
I know it's odd, but I just had to share, in case someone out there with my coloring has the same brow issues I do.
And don't get me started on how great this shadow looks thrown up in the crease and smoked out on the lower lash line... (Posted on 6/25/16)
Perfect for olive skin tone Review by Nemesis
Beautiful when used as an all over the lid with Cupcake in the crease and Shimma Shimma in the inner corner. Really makes brown eyes pop. The color is a very subtle purple just so unique and rare. (Posted on 6/10/16)
Come On IN! Review by shannon
thank you thank you thank you for making a shade of a grey pink/purple base that doesn't make me look ashy because of skin tone range if your wondering im 178 in makeupforever hd and this i mean im gonna be messing with my makeup till 7 and its 4 in the after noon i mean next month my check is yours guarantee! but don't get greedy mug stay the person i fell in love with (Posted on 5/18/16)
YES Review by Connie
I love this color. So buttery. Maybe because I'm fairer the color shows up more... I was just reading another review that mirrored my feelings about Cupcake. I was so disappointed by Cupcake because it didn't show up. But Unexpected. YES. YES. YES. It's certainly gorgeous, and the perfect blending color for my skin tone. Perfect. I'm in love. This plus Sensuous in the crease. OMG. Do you understand that I have been through 4 Sephora palettes looking for the perfect eyeshadow pairings? Making my own palette on MUG was definitely worth it for this picky girl. (Posted on 3/25/16)
Disappointed at First Review by Carrie
Looking at the swatches of this eyeshadow, I was really excited to buy it. However when it arrived in the mail, I swatched it on the back of my hand and couldn't even see it. I was really disappointed and tried to exchange it but MUG doesn't do exchanges or returns. So I figured I would try to do my best with it. I had to pack it on my eye literally 6 times in order to get the color that I see in reviews. What's crazy is that I am very light lol I'm the same color as Marlena. However once I packed it on it really is a beautiful color but MY GOSH you have to go through so much product just to get the color to show up. (Posted on 12/11/15)
Unexpected fan! Review by Jasmine
In the pan it looks like such a blah light lilac pinky shade....put into the crease and it blows my mind! Great for using with cool tone eyeshadows to bring it together with warm skin. I love it was MUG Insomnia pigment.
Fantastic addition to my collection. (Posted on 9/30/15)
Not for Warm Skin Review by Mandy
This was one of the first shadows that I bought from MUG. I was excited. I look at pictures and videos of people using it and it looks amazing. However, on my Italian skin (and im pretty pale right now but still warm toned) it doesn't show up. I tried building it.. And it just looks chalky. It is very smooth though so I'll probably use it asa transition colour for my purple or taupe looks. (Posted on 9/19/15)
good Review by tatiana
i wanted this color for very long and was a lil bit disapointed, its not as mouve as i thought, its like a dirty purple, so idk.... but it works in the crease, so its up to you... (Posted on 8/17/15)
yesss! Review by Inga
stunning taupe- purple. I don't really like matte shadow all over my lid, but this looks amazing! (Posted on 8/8/15)
LOVE THIS! Review by Kirstin
Beautiful pinky/muted light dusky purple which is a great transition shade. I also put this under my lower lashline when I'm doing that "no makeup" makeup look. (Posted on 6/16/15)
Great unique eyeshadow color Review by ColorGirl
In my first set of order of 5 eye shadows, this is my favorite. It caught my eye when i was browsing for the eyeshadow colors, because it's so unique. I thought it would be a mutated purple/pink color, but it is more of a mink/grey purple. It is very beautiful! I actually used it to contour also, which worked out well! Will use this one a lot for sure! (Posted on 6/12/15)
Cool and Mauve Like Review by Margaret
I think this is a beautiful color just not on me. I prefer warm tones and have yet to find a way to make it work on me. (Posted on 6/11/15)
So pretty and unique Review by Megan
This shade has changed my makeup routine completely, there's something about this color that makes me feel so beautiful. I feel so confident when I wear it. It looks fantastic on my pale skin (I have blue eyes, too). I wouldn't describe this shade as a matte pale pink brown, but more of a muted, cool-toned pale purple with gray undertones. Texture isn't creamy particularly but it's very smooth and blends well, which makes it great for all over the lid, in the crease or as a blending color. Versatile, unique (to the "frugal" makeup world) and beautiful! I hope it's never discontinued, will continue to repurchase as long as I live! (Posted on 6/4/15)
LOVE IT Review by Alexandra
I am medium tan colored (i think lol i have a weird color) but I absolutely love this color. Its a matte purplely gray cool toned and I just love it and it's one of the colors I use the most. I either use it as a soft crease color, or a cool transition color, or on the lid for a purple/gray smokey look. For some reason I also love combining it with bitten. I hope they never discontinue it, as it's a color I haven't been able to find elsewhere. I'm gonna order a few more just to be safe :) (Posted on 5/7/15)
Disappointed Review by Shirley
This is the only MUG eyeshadow I've ever received that has horrible color payoff. I have loved every other product I've bought. (Posted on 5/3/15)
Not very pigmented Review by Rachel
This is a nice, neutral lavender-leaning taupe. I like the color very much, but I was very disappointed in the lack of pigmentation. It absolutely needs primer to show up, plus a lot of building up, and I'm very, very fair-skinned. I also find the texture on the dry side. Very disappointing, especially since MUG is so hyped on beauty blogs. I hope this is an aberration. I wouldn't buy this shade again. (Posted on 4/21/15)
So Pretty! Review by CHLOE
Perfect crease color for pale skins, it helps to warm a cool grey or even blue makeup look.
It is so nice, I was surprised as I'm am usually not a big fan of pink/lilac. (Posted on 3/16/15)
The warmer the skin tone, the bigger the problem :( Review by Brianna
I am a huge advocate for MUG and MUG products. Many people with richer skin tones worry about how well products will appear on their skin, even with a primer. I've never worried about that when it came to MUG eyeshadows as they always appear just as pigmented on my skin as they do anyone elses. Unfortunately, that has not been the case with this shadow. It's beautiful in the pan but on my honey brown skin, it's nowhere near as pigmented. I find that I have to work harder with this shadow than any of my other Makeup Geek products. It can easily look chalky on me. I feel like I'll only be able to wear it as a blending color for my grey/smokey eye looks. This is the first shade I can truly say I will not be repurchasing because it is too difficult for me to work with. Those lighter than me should have no issue and those darker than me might get a more washed out color than what's in the pan. All I can say is if you're in the middle like me, you may find that it's not the most friendly shade for our skin tone. (Posted on 1/14/15)
Not unexpected lilac :) Review by Angela
As a redhead with slightly fair skin I apply it all over the lid on its own. This lilac makes my grey eyes pop. Love it!
I also ordered "Creme Brullee" and "Peach Smoothy". All three eyeshadows are highly pigmented without beeing chalky and the texture is sooo buttery. Excellent! No need to buy high priced MAC anymore because makeupgeek eyeshadows are so much better. Thank you :)
Too bad I discovered makeupgeek quite recently since it is hard to get in Germany. (Posted on 12/30/14)
Give me more! Review by Boglarka
I use it every day and I love it. The color is more on the cool side, beautiful matte, gorgeous for crease and blending. After applying, it stays on the whole day, and it looks 12 hours later still the same. Amazing. (Posted on 12/8/14)
Best crease color. Review by Marion
I use this almost everyday my crease. It's so surprisingly versatile! Whether I'm wearing a wash of a pale shimmer on the lids or greens or blues or browns, Unexpected is an "unexpectedly" great match for almost any look you could think of. I don't know exactly how to describe it. It's a light purpley-pinky-brown with maybe the tiniest hint of grey. The picture on the site and swatch don't do it enough justice at all. I mean, I have two pans in my pallet, because I never ever want be without! Just total perfection. (Posted on 10/17/14)
New favorite crease color Review by Riss
Beautiful, unique purple-brownish color. Goes well with my asian skin. Such a subtle color for the crease, you can always build it up. Pigmented, smooth, and easy to blend. Easily became my new favorite crease color along with Cocoa Bear! I would definitely repurchase. (Posted on 9/28/14)
hmm.. Review by anna
This was my least favourite color from my order. It's nicely pigmented and smooth. The colour is like a mix betweem mauve, purple and grey. The pictures and swatch are quite different than the actual eyeshadow. The pan picture is way too light and violet-ty. The same goes for the swatch picture.
Would be maybe good as blending color. (Posted on 9/3/14)
Surprise! Review by Chex
Wow... I was definitely not expecting to like this colour but it is so pretty on the eye lid. Not to mention it is super creamy and just gorgeous!! If you aren't sure whether you want to buy it just take a leap of faith and you might be surprised! (Posted on 7/9/14)
Versatile and long-lasting Review by rodcin
This color is very versatile--and beautiful! I've used it both as a wash all over my lid and as a crease color, and it looks fantastic either way. I would describe the shade as a browned mauve. As others have mentioned, it's along the lines of UD's Tease and Mac's Quarry, but I much prefer Unexpected for its blendability, high pigmentation, and lasting power. With the other two, I have to layer and blend repeatedly for the color to show "presence". With Unexpected, a swipe and minimal blending is all it takes. It lasts all day too! I'm thrilled with this purchase. (Posted on 3/14/14)
Great crease colour! Review by Orlena
Perfect for the crease with colours like pink, white or shimmery on the lid. (Posted on 2/22/14)
smooth & creamy Review by GHYW
I was pleasantly surprised by this lilac grey shadow. I've encountered my fair share of matte eyeshadows that are extremely powdery and not so pigmented but this was unexpectedly smooth and creamy. Great quality, and versatile colour that can be worn all over the lid and blended into the crease. (Posted on 12/1/13)
Perfect for Purple Smokey Eyes! Review by Desiree'
I love using this in my crease to blend out Sensuous and Drama Queen in the outer corner. (Posted on 11/7/13)
Just like Urban Decay's Tease Review by julie
I was looking for a shadow like UD's Tease and I have found it. Great blending color for colored eyeshadows when you do not want to use brown. (Posted on 10/23/13)
Perfect for pinup looks Review by Jennifer
I use this in the crease for my pin-up looks. It is neutral enough but gives off a hint of purple without being PURPLE!! (Posted on 9/26/13)
Cool Color Review by Bella
I love the color in the picture, and was happy when i bought it. It comes out a littler dark on my skin but it a beautiful color for blending and in crease. (Posted on 9/24/13)
LOVE!! Review by anja
I can't say enough good things about this one!
great as a lid color for a soft everyday look and it works great for blending out a purple smokey eye (I use it as a trasitioning color) :) (Posted on 7/11/13)
Love it Review by Elspeth
I brought this and Mocha and I love them both! I love mattes and this is so unique. I wear this a lot in the crease and have read it can look bruised, but on my fair skin I don't see that - it's so pretty! Very impressed with the pigmentation aswell. (Posted on 6/12/13)
Fabulous color Review by Ariana
Unexpected is a fabulous color! It is a great blending color and a great neutral color for all over the lid... I find myself reaching for it again and again. I will definitely pick up another one to add to my collection. Highly recommend! (Posted on 2/4/13)
Great blending color Review by Eden
This color works very well to blend out harsh lines, it's not to light or to dark. I would recommend! (Posted on 12/17/12)
Very Impressed! Review by Anna
This eyeshadow truly lives up to its name - unexpectedly amazing!
I have very pale skin and I use this in my crease - looks great without being too dark. Goes with a lot of other lid colours too!
Well done MUG! A winner. :) (Posted on 10/22/12)
BEST EVER Review by Liz
This colour is amazing. It is absolutely my pick of the collection so far. I've been using it primarily as a blender just under the brow bone, and it works so well to help contour the eye socket. Surprisingly, it seems to work with just about any colour scheme as well.
Its perfectly matte texture has me infatuated. (Posted on 9/18/12)
Blushing Purple Review by Carly
Unexpected is a delicate wam mauve colour, which is great for fair skin as cool purlpe tones tend to be quite harsh and receed the eyes instead of making them a feature. The texture is smooth and silky, blends wonderfully and is highly pigmented so a little goes a long way. (Posted on 8/29/12)
Best blender ever Review by Leah
This is my 'go to' mauve. It looks a little darker in person that it does on my computer screen, but I am very pleased with it. I also have Mac 'Quarry' and agree with Jennifer's review on 5 June and a big YES to the price difference. Marlena - keep up the genuine pricing; I for one will buy your products before I buy Mac! Love your products. (Posted on 8/26/12)
Fantastic colour Review by Charlotte
Not sure where I was before I got this colour, love it! I have medium skin with pinkish undertones and this colour really brings out the ble of my eyes, with cocoa bear or purely naked in the crease. Fab every day look. A must have. (Posted on 8/24/12)
similar to mac's quarry Review by jennifer
I love this shadow! On my medium skin tone it comes out as a muted lavender. On me it's more purple than pink. Unexpected was very similar to mac's quarry when I swatched them next to each other. They are both wonderful shadows for blending in the crease. Of corse the MUG one was way cheeper :) (Posted on 6/5/12)
Unique Review by R
I knew I would love Unexpected but I didn't know I would love it this much. It's just so gorgeous against my cocoa complexion. You can wear it during the day at work, and still rock it at night. Very pigmented too, which is always a plus. (Posted on 5/17/12)
Great quality Review by Kellie
I think this is a lovely matte eyeshadow, it's well pigmented and blends well. I love the colour in the pan but it doesn't wear well on me (I'm fair, cool skin with pink undertones). I probably wouldn't wear this on its own for that reason but it is good to blend out dark plumy shades. (Posted on 5/17/12)
Very pigmented but a little dusty Review by Sandra
I love all of the matte MUG shadows I have & this one is no exception. I do notice, however, that this one is quite a bit dustier than the other MUG mattes. Which means I need to use more product, even with a very good primer or base. It's still a very nice shade, though, and one I use a lot. It leans more pink on my medium skin tone, doesn't look quite as brown as the swatch. Works great for blending out harsh edges or as a base under shimmery colors I want to tone down a bit. I'd definitely recommend this MUG eyeshadow as a great basic matte for anybody. (Posted on 5/9/12)
Great quality Review by Luiza
I really like these eyeshadows! This one is a beautiful purple color, in person it looks different from the swatches, for me. I don't really see brown in it, but I still like it.
I read that somebody said they didn't know a dupe for it, but I have a L'oreal quad (summer dusk 508) and the 4th shadow on this quad looks really similar and it's also matte. (But the MUG one lasts longer and looks more pigmented once you put it on your eyes). (Posted on 4/27/12)
Gorgeous and unique Review by Alice
I was kind of underwhelmed when I first tried out this colour as I couldn't figure out how to wear it. Once I started experimenting, though, I realised what a gorgeous colour this is! I haven't seen a dupe for it anywhere. It reminds me of collared doves--very soft, pinky-grey. It goes well with browns, greys, purples, pinks, and probably more combinations that I haven't tried yet. One of my favourite MUG shadows! (Posted on 4/16/12)
Versatile colour - fantastic for blending Review by Kirkyj
Great blending colour, really smooth and pigmented. I pair this with burlesque for a glamorous day time look. Very versatile colour. Love it!!!! (Posted on 3/20/12)
Very nice! Review by Mariana
It is a great shadow, as base and blends real good. (Posted on 3/7/12)
Interesting neutral with subtle color Review by jujubean758
I agree with previous reviews that this is a neutral color with a hint of color. I've used it to blend out a deep eggplant on my outer v into my crease, and also to blend out a smokey eye as Marlena did in her classic smoky eye tutorial. Nice alternative to using browns or more neutral colors for blending. (Posted on 1/30/12)
Unexpected....Understatement Review by Leslie
I expected a soft purple, but got such a rich pinky/brown color that calling it "Unexpected" was a big "understatement". This blends well with every brown, pink, purple...etc. (Posted on 1/26/12)
Natural Colour Review by Jazmin
This shadow is beautiful, it brings a small amount of colour to the eye, without being too bold due to using colours. It's extremely versatile and the shadow itself is smooth and creamy - love it! (Posted on 1/22/12)
Unique color Review by JJ
This color is very smooth and pigmented, not chalky and all. However I have to be careful with this color because it can me look very bruised, which is not a look I tend to go for. I have very cool undertones but even when this is swatched on my hand it still looks like a bruise on my skin, something to keep in mind if you are very pale with cool undertones (Posted on 1/18/12)
My new favorite! Review by Stephanie86NL
This is such a unique matte eyeshadow! I love that is very pigmented, and that is neutral even though its a color. This is my favorite out of the 8 eyeshadows from the starterkit. I will definitely order more MUG shadows in the near future! (Posted on 1/11/12)
great Review by heather
for the price a great pigmented color (Posted on 1/9/12)
Matte version of MUG Twilight Review by Susan
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE these eye shadows! They are so smooth and richly colored. They also blend like a dream! Unexpected is like the matte version of Twilight. A lovely, dusty purple. While it is matte, it's not the least bit chalky and has a perfect velvet finish. (Posted on 12/26/11)
Similar to MAC's Malt eyeshadow Review by NerdyLibrarianGirl
Love the quality of this eyeshadow. This matte shade is creamy and highly pigmented. Unfortunately, its not a great colour for me (I am very fair with cool pink undertones). Malt is described as a "soft pinkish beige" matte, but gave me that bruised eye look. So did Unexpected. But if you like Malt, this would probably be a great dupe. (Posted on 12/23/11)

Robert "Bob" Richards (ボブ Bobu?) is a character in the Tekken series who was introduced in Tekken 6 and returned for Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion. Bob is a renowned martial arts prodigy from the USA.
An alternate version of himself named Slim Bob is playable in Tekken Tag Tournament 2, as the name suggests, is a skinny version of Bob which made an appearance in his Tekken 6 ending.
Tekken 6
Bob had always been very serious about his training. He was hailed as a master of martial arts from a very young age, and he garnered many fans with his chiseled body and good looks. However, he could not defeat opponents who were larger than him. He vanished from the martial arts scene and dedicated himself to a special training regimen that increased his power and weight while maintaining his agility.
After several years in seclusion, Bob returned to the fighting world a changed man. Those who know Bob were astonished by his transformation. His handsome looks were gone and he gained a disproportionate amount of weight. Bob paid no attention to his critics, and relied on the benefits of his training: speed, power and unyielding weight. He decided that he was ready to return to competition; he joined the sixth King of Iron Fist Tournament to test his martial arts abilities once again.Ending Description: After winning the tournament, Bob became a worldwide sensation. And his schedule was filled with a series of television and magazine interviews, with his training secrets becoming unearthed. After cameras take multiple photos, a poster of his obese self appears on the wall, with a blurry image of Bob walking by. He weighs himself in his exercise room, where he discovers he only weighs a shocking 150 lbs on a scale. He steps off, wondering if it was just an illusion, then weighs himself again. After looking at the number once more, not believing that he really weighed 150 lbs. The camera then shows Bob, wearing heavy clothing covering a skinnier and slimmer body, and he shouts in horror, accepting the fact that all of his famous weight vanished without him ever knowing it. He then proceeds to bang his head on the wall, only to be found in the middle of the floor, passed out.

Character Relationships
- Miguel Caballero Rojo - His rival in the Online Tekken Comic (non-canon).
- Alisa Bosconovitch - In the Online Tekken Comic, Bob saved Asuka from being killed by Alisa (non-canon).
- Asuka Kazama - He saved her from being killed by Alisa in the Online Tekken Comic (non-canon).
- Julia Chang - His partner in Street Fighter X Tekken (non-canon).
- Slim Bob - His skinny form.
Exceptionally strong, fast and hard-hitting, with good range and devastating combos, Bob is a well-rounded fighter (no pun intended). His offense is very damaging, but most of his good launchers and low hits are punishable. Also, he's a big target for longer juggles. Overall, Bob is generally played as an offensive character.
Fighting style
Bob was described as "a freestyle karate practitioner from the U.S." by Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada. His fighting style can also possibly be derived from Martial art-based acrobatic sports such as Tricking.
- Rufus from the Street Fighter series is similar and often compared to Bob.
- They are both overweight American fighters who are amazingly fast for their sizes, they both developed their own fighting styles and they both have blonde hair, their personalities are different though as Rufus is loud-mouthed, obnoxious and impatient, a contrast to the more calm, serious and focused Bob.
- Street Fighter X Tekken takes this a step further, featuring a trailer in which Rufus somehow mistakes Bob for Ken Masters and attacks him (which is extremely ironic, given how well Bob and Rufus resemble and contrast each other in design) in Law's restaurant (ironically, it turned out that the real Ken was just eating there with Ryu).
- Addionally, Rufus and Zangief's ending in said game shows Rufus losing most of his weight (after opening Pandora which causes its energies to take away his obesity) and become skinny, mirroring Bob's ending in Tekken 6 where he loses his weight and becomes skinny as well under mysterious conditions.
- Bob can be customized to resemble Rufus in Tekken 6.
- They are both overweight American fighters who are amazingly fast for their sizes, they both developed their own fighting styles and they both have blonde hair, their personalities are different though as Rufus is loud-mouthed, obnoxious and impatient, a contrast to the more calm, serious and focused Bob.
- Bob's physical design is possibly inspired by Haru who was portrayed by the deceased actor Chris Farley in the 1997 movie Beverly Hills Ninja.
- Additionally, Bob may also be inspired by American actor, comedian, and singer Jack Black who is (among many other achievements) known for voicing Po in Dreamworks' Kung Fu Panda film series.
- Youtuber Eric Jacobus has done Bob's moves to the point that Harada himself has noticed this and favored him for it.
- Bob also share the same similarities as Cheng Sinzan from the games of SNK.
- They both wear the same outfit (unless his P1 can be "customized" as Cheng in T6 and TTT2 as well as in the PC version of SFxT only with the use of mods).
- Both motives were "modeled" after one of Hong Kong actor Sammo Hung's major roles in movies that he appeared.
- Cheng is a brunette and very short-haired while Bob is blonde and has a different hairstyle (hence his name as a hairstyle).
- And both are overweight.
- Bob can be customized to resemble a minor Power Rangers character Farkas "Bulk" Bulkmeier, Peter Griffin from Family Guy, Chef from South Park, and HUNK from Resident Evil.
- He can also be customized to resemble a hat-less Wario from Nintendo's Mario series.
- His first two opponents in the Arena Mode are Ganryu and Paul Phoenix.
- Bob's Tekken 6 CG pose resembles Jin's Tekken 5 CG pose.
- He can be "customized" as Morshu from Link: The Faces of Evil minus the fedora, but with a beret instead, and those aformentioned ones as well.
- Bob is a bounty hunter in Street Fighter X Tekken.
- In Tekken: Blood Vengeance, Bob's dossier is briefly seen when Anna Williams opens a file containing dossiers of various persons of interest.

If you are a customer of Knightsbridge Insolvency Services, please go to www.knightsbridgeinsolvency.co.uk/complaints-procedure
If you are a customer of Belmont Financial Management Services, please go to http://belmontfinance.co.uk/complaints-procedure
This document sets out the complaints handling procedures that we will follow in the event a client makes a complaint.
A complaint is:
Any expression of dissatisfaction from or on behalf of a customer, whether oral or written, irrespective of whether it is justified or not.
What do we do once a complaint is received?
A copy of this complaints procedure must be given to any complainant along with an Acknowledgement Letter, and to any client who requests it.
Any complaint, whether written or oral, must be referred to 'The Complaints Officer' immediately, even if the complaint has already been resolved with an apology.
All complaints will be referred, as soon as possible, to the Team Leader to liaise with the Complaints Officer or in the event that the Team Leader is involved in the subject matter, the Line Manager will be informed.
If both Team Leader and Line Manager are included in the subject matter, the complaint will be referred to the director who is not involved in the complaint and the director will then work with the Complaints Officer to resolve the matter. The Complaints Officer also has the authority to close a complaint.
This is done so the Complaints Officer can determine whether the statement by a client may be considered a complaint or not.
Money Advice Group will always endeavour to resolve any complaint as quickly and efficiently as possible, according to the Complaints Procedure.
If a complaint is not resolved by close of business on the day following receipt, what happens next?
Record Keeping
All complaints will be thoroughly recorded within the Complaints Register, by the Complaints Officer at each appropriate stage of handling. All recordings will be kept for a minimum of 3 years.
What if the complaint is about another firm?
If we receive a complaint that is not about us, or our services, and assuming that we can identify the firm to whom the complaint should be addresses, we will carry out the following:
We will write to the firm concerned, informing them we believe the complaint to be theirs, suggesting that they contact the client directly
We will enclose a copy of the original complaint letter, or a copy of our 'Complaint Log Sheet', if the complaint was verbal
We will write to the client, giving contact details of the firm concerned, and invite the client to get in touch. We will enclose a copy of our letter sent to the firm involved.
Acknowledging the Complaint
Once a complaint is received, we will send the complainant an Acknowledgment Letter within 5 business days, informing them we have acknowledged the complaint, that we will be investigating it and we will respond within 4 weeks, with a suitable outcome.
We will also enclose a copy of this Complaints Procedure, outlining how we are handling their complaint.
The Complaints Officer will investigate all complaints and may, if considered necessary, consult the member of staff whose actions or omissions gave rise to the complaint. The investigation will involve a full review of the incident, and where necessary involve contact with third parties such as creditors to obtain information.
If the Complaints Officer is subject to the complaint, the investigation will be conducted by another senior person, where appropriate.
Immediately upon completion of the investigation, the Complaints Officer will write to the client notifying them of the outcome of the investigation, the nature and terms of any settlement, and that they can refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service if they are still not satisfied with the outcome. This letter has to be sent within 4 weeks that the complaint was received.
The letter should also point out that this should be done within the next 6 months or they may lose the right to take their complaint to the ombudsman. The letter should include the name, address and telephone number of the Ombudsman and a leaflet that explains the Ombudsman Service.
Where we decide that redress is appropriate, we will aim to provide the complainant with compensation. Any compensation offered must be fair and the basis of calculation should be explained to the client.
If the investigation is not concluded within 4 weeks and a final response letter has not been sent to the complainant, the Complaints Officer must write to the client informing him that the investigation is continuing and the reason(s) for delay and when he expects to be able to contact the client again.
Within 8 weeks of receiving a complaint, we will write to the complainant with a 'Final Response' which will inform the complainant, we either:
Accept the complaint, and where appropriate, offer redress; or
Offer redress without accepting the complaint; or
Reject the complaint, giving reasons for doing so.
When we send our Final Response letter, we will enclose contact details for the Financial Ombudsman Service and a leaflet outlining their services.
If the investigation is not concluded within 8 weeks, the Complaints Officer must write to the client informing him of the reasons for further delay. At this point, the Complaints Officer should explain that if the client is still not satisfied with the progress of the investigation, they can refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service. Again, the letter should also point out that this should be done within the next 6 months or they may lose the right to take their complaint to the ombudsman. The letter should include the name, address and telephone number of the Ombudsman and a leaflet that explains the Ombudsman Service.
Closing the Complaint
Where the firm receives confirmation from the client that they are satisfied with the findings of the investigation and any resolution, the complaint can be considered closed by the Complaints Officer.
Where no conformation has been received from the complainant within 8 weeks of the firm's most recent letter, the complaint may also be considered closed.
What happens if a Complaint goes to the ombudsman?
The firm must cooperate fully with the ombudsman in resolving any complaints made against and agrees to be bound by any awards made by the Ombudsman.
Staff Understanding
All staff (including all secretarial and Administrational staff) are given a copy of these procedures and are required to sign their acknowledgement of receipt, understanding and agreeing to act within the requirements in all cases.

Zirconium is an automotive company in Grand Theft Auto IV, the only vehicle they produce is the Stratum. The Zirconium Building in Liberty City is modeled after the Chrysler Building but the automotive company Schyster appears to be based on Chrysler. How the Stratum is similar to a Honda Accord Wagon might suggest that it's based on Honda, however there is already a car manufacturer based on Honda (Dinka) and it should be very unlikely that a foreign automaker is headquartered in a classic American landmark. Zirconium could also be based on Mercury since they're both elements, though Mercury wasn't named after the element. The Stratum could be meant to emulate a Mercury Sable station wagon, but strangely enough, one already exists in the game, as the Solair (manufactured by Willard, which also seems to be partially based on Mercury). It can also theorized that the Stratum is a captive import if it is indeed not a domestic vehicle.
Zirconium could also be a metaphor for expensive looking vehicles built with poor quality as the element zirconium can be used to make cheap diamond substitutes. The logo appears to be a crystal (probably a zirconia crystal).

Sony Online Entertainment's John Smedley announced a new entrant in the zombie apocalypse survival genre Wednesday evening in the form of H1Z1. The announcement of the PC and likely PS4 title was handled unusually through an off-screen reveal on a Game Talk Live broadcast followed by a Reddit post from Smedley but this revealed a few way in which SOE plans to outdo the current zombie apocalypse measuring stick, DayZ.
A game engine built for MMOs
DayZ started out as a mod to Bohemia Interactive's ArmA II and was wildly successful enough that the decision was made to convert it into a full game. However, the game engine was built for a multiplayer shooter and not for a persistent MMO. While this was acceptable for a mod, turning DayZ into a fully fleshed out stand-alone game has proven to be a challenge for Dean Hall and his team as witnessed by the multiple delays until it was finally released as a Steam Early Access Game late last year. Even then, we are still seeing major engine work ahead to get the engine to meet the vision of the game and the promised 150 player per server headcount.
H1Z1 is being built with the proven Forgelight engine that currently powers Planetside 2 and the upcoming Everquest Next. So not only is the game already capable of handling hundreds of players and NPCs, MMO-like features such as house ownership, grouping and crafting but is also being purposed for sandbox play to allow users to build their own creations in-game. This allows the H1Z1 team to focus on the survival aspects and content creations versus also wrestling with the game engine.
Player created items
SOE is building H1Z1 to use the Player Studio. This has already proven to be a success with Planetside 2 and bringing in user-created content to the game opens up wider possibilities than what is limited to the development team's imaginations.
The one concern with this is that, unlike a MMOFPS, a zombie survival game doesn't need new items that can upset the gameplay balance. Smedley and SOE haven't specified what will be allowed and what won't be allowed for user generated content so we'll have to wait and see.
Fortress building
Borrowing an element from Facepunch Studios' Rust, Smedley says that H1Z1 will allow players to group together in gangs and take over existing buildings like abandoned warehouses or build houses to serve as bases in the game. "[W]e want our players to make Woodbury from The Walking Dead if they want to. Or take over a prison," Smedley wrote as a way to give examples to the game's vision.
More than shoot on sight play?
Zombie survival games like DayZ and Rust allow for all sorts of emergent gameplay but also have a nasty habit of devolving into many "shoot on sight" encounters with other players. Smedley hinted at the possibility of doing more than running and gunning by allowing players to live a "quiet life as a farmer raising crops" and an in-game economy that will allow for trading boosted by the thousands of players participating. This raises the possibility that H1Z1 will be more than just finding trying to survive against other players as well as the zombies.
Still lots to prove
There are still many unanswered questions with H1Z1 such as will it support some of the DayZ features like disease, broken bones, bullet wounds, etc. These are the type of survival aspects that are crucial to make SOE's entry an immersive experience and not just a shooter dressed up in a zombie apocalypse skin.
Questions on how the free-to-play monetization will work also arise as well as why the game currently appears to use a third-person, over the shoulder view and not a first-person view. What kind of server customizations will be allowed is also of interest since the game will solely be hosted by SOE.
H1Z1 will be released as a Steam Early Access Game in the next four to six weeks for around $20. It will be free-to-play when released and also be included as part of SOE's All-Access subscription for $14.99 a month though details on what perks that includes is unknown. The PC version will be released first followed by a PS4 version much later.

Dr. Megan Hunt (Dana Delany) was in a class of her own, a brilliant neurosurgeon at the top of her game. But her world is turned upside down when a devastating car accident puts an end to her time in the operating room. Megan resumes her career as a medical examiner, determined to solve the puzzle of who or what killed the victims. Her instincts are sharp, but she's developed a reputation for graying the lines of where her job ends and where the police department's begins. It turns out her career isn't the only thing that will need to be rebuilt; Megan's family has taken a backseat to her ambition, and now she's discovering there's a lot of work to do when it comes to dissecting her relationships with the living.

The Fox Theatre and the Rialto Theatre co-sponsored the long awaited appearance by the extremely popular Ozomatli March 14, 2014. Ozomatli was one of many bands that boycotted the state of Arizona in response to the passage of state law SB 1070 in 2009. The law was otherwise known as the immigration bill. As a result, Tucsonans have experienced a long dry spell without one of their favorite bands, Ozomatli.
The band originates from Los Angeles and formed in the mid 1990's. The Grammy winning band blends electo-cumbia, garage rock, reggae, hip-hop, mambo and everything in between to create their trademark sound. They are apt to flow between several styles of music during the course of the same song.
"Ozoheads" came out in droves and it was a raucous reunion indeed. It was apparent from the start of the set that the audience was as important part of the show as the band. Maybe that is a slight exaggeration. As soon as OZO hit the stage, everyone was out of his/her seat and never returned for the rest of the set.
They are touring to promote their new album, "Place In The Sun." Four of the sixteen songs were from the new album. For a complete set list, click here.
Ozomatli closed the show by bringing drums and horns to the floor to keep the energy alive. They marched through the audience while they played and the show ended in the lobby. They stayed in the lobby to meet with fans until the last person was gone. Their energy resonated long after the show was over. The best news is that Ozomatli is back in Arizona.

Bonnie's Plants sponsors a cabbage growing contest which for the last 15 years has encouraged teacher participation. The program began in Alabama and has grown to include 48 states. One student in Suzanne Diaz's class produced an amazing 38 pound cabbage by simply planting it and did not do anything other than place it in the ground and water it at least once daily. The now awesome winner of the cabbage growing contest is Dominic Kelly.
Dominic Kelly is a fourth grade student at Floresta Elementary (School District of St. Lucie County on the Treasure Coast) and the state of Florida winner in Bonnie's Plants' cabbage growing contest program. Erica Der, the Education Liaison from the Florida Department of Agriculture presented Dominic with a certificate from the State of Florida. Jonathan Shepherd, representative for Bonnie's Plants, presented Dominic with a $1,000 savings bond, which could double by maturity to be worth nearly $2,000. Now the dilemma for Dominic's family is what they will do with the colossal cabbage! Congratulations to Dominic Kelly and Floresta Elementary School.

This is a discussion on More showboating from Giffords , et al within the The Second Amendment & Gun Legislation Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; Cox Home Page Location Interceptor | Cox Communications...
When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk.
"Don't forget, incoming fire has the right of way."
Hóka-héy! Crazy Horse
- Whenever someone says "without infringing on our Second Amendment rights", it always means that they are, in fact, infringing...Kelly said the system could be a national model.
"At the federal level we still have no requirement for background checks at gun shows, but states like New York are fixing the loophole," he said. "The state's model helps keep guns out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them — like criminals and the dangerously mentally ill — without infringing on our Second Amendment rights."
"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the outcome of the vote." ~ Benjamin Franklin
Huffington post says giffords is going to attend a gun show. Is it just me, or does this sound like the worst idea ever?
I dont mean that I think she would be harmed, but she might not get a warm reception.
Question: When they say there are no background checks at gun shows does that mean NO check at all? When we buy a gun at our local gun shop we had to fill out a form that was run through the FBI. I've never bought a gun at a show, so I don't know how it works there.
Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.- Mark Twain
No, Jean. Thats pretty much B.S.
If you buy from a dealer at a gun show, you go thru a normal background check. Just like in a store. Its only if you buy from a private individual, that you do not.
BUT dont forget that in NY you need a FOB card. That means that you have already been thru a background check.
Every gun show I have ever been to you had to fill out the form and have a valid acquire permit, NICS, etc. just like you do at the local gun store.
All of the gun show loophole crap the libs are spouting is to sway the "low information" voters and people who govern their lives with emotion rather than common sense and logic.
By the way have you noticed how the "Regime" is redefining common sense? I'm using the old definition.
So what's the answer to people who say that's how the criminals get their guns...at gun shows from individual sellers? Maybe percentage wise it's very small, I don't know. Maybe the gun shows should only allow the sale of guns by dealers? Would that satisfy the anti gun crowd?
I don't think there is anyone on this board that wants criminals to buy guns so they can go out and cause harm. So how do we do this without infringing on the rights of the law abiding?
Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.- Mark Twain
I dont care if it would satisfy the anti gun crowd (it would not, btw), but I can tell you that criminals DONT buy their guns there. What they do buy are guns stolen from home break ins, and for whatever reason, they "have", bottom of the barrel, ill maintained, junk. And maybe an SKS, or shotgun.
I think most of us would expect criminals to want good guns that functioned properly. But what they are caught with aint that. Like I said, its almost always junk.
I have only had 4 criminal defendants (ever), who had anything close to decent weapons. One had a Beretta (he was legally entitled to have it), and another also legally entitled to have and carry, had a RIA. Two others each had decent brands, but neither what anyone would consider criminals. One had an illegal search set up in his employers parking lot. ALL cars were stopped and searched. He had a carry permit, but at that time his employer forbid guns on the property. The other was similar nonsense.
The real criminals all had junk, and didnt get them at gun shows.
I don't really CARE what they want either but unfortunately there are plenty of people who agree with them and laws are getting voted on every day (just look at California this week) that are restricting guns and ammo.
So we have to care and go about a strategy to fend them off while making them think they "won" a round. Like you do with little kids...because they aren't going away and they aren't going to stop.
Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.- Mark Twain
Guns sold at gun shows follow the same procedure as guns sold outside of gun shows. Dealers still do all the paperwork and NICS check. Private sellers follow state laws but usually it's handshake> cash>gun, in that order.
Media spins them to be massive black markets for drug lords and gangs to make arms deals. Reality is it's full of the same middle-aged collectors and dealers that were at the last 36894 shows trying to sell the same old overpriced stuff.
British by birth. American by choice.
