text: Posted June 2, 2014 Apparently they're looking into it and they should. My thoughts on it after watching some news coverage of this at lunch... #1) His status as a deserter (or not) shouldn't have had any impact on the Army trying to find and recover him, and it appears that it didn't. #2) His status as a deserter (or not) shouldn't have any bearing on this deal that was made to get him free. #3) It absolutely should be investigated as to whether he was captured or deserted and was then captured. By all accounts I've seen, all of his platoon mates consider him a deserter, and they read some excerpts from emails to his parents that suggest he was disallusioned with the war and with the Army. He said thins such as "ashamed to be american" etc. #4) As to the 'deal' the administration made... obviously more needs to come out about this and they are insisting that they did not "negotiate with terrorists" but regardless of their stance, it sure looks to me like they did in fact "negotiate with terrorists" and whether that's the case in truth or not, they need to clear it up fast because if that's what the terrorist think, then look for more kidnap attempts. Absolutely they should, and if he did that is up to them how to proceed. I agree with most of what you said. As for his state of mind at the time and comments that he supposedly made about the war and being ashamed to be an American, who knows what he was going through. Everyone reacts differently to war, many of us can only imagine. As usual though this will become a back and forth of dick measuring between politicians while other problems in this country go ignored. 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I broke the main cast iron frame of my Wilton C-3 vise the other day. In shopping for a replacement, I noticed on the Wilton Tool website that this vise has a "Lifetime Warranty". I called Wilton to get info on warranty replacement or repair. The man asked me how old is the vise....about 15 years, I said. After a moment, I learned that the "lifetime" of a Wilton vise is 6 years. After 6 years, the "lifetime warranty" expires.....how can they be comfortable in misleading the customer?....why not be ethical and advertise a "6 year warranty". This kind of thing pis_es me off to no end. Is this typical of how industrial manufacturers operate? I thought I'd feel better after venting here.....I don't. waverly
All the vises I have broken, it was my own fault.
If you can get a 100 pound old mill vise, they won't break.
I remember reading once that "A vise is the only tool that contains within itself the means of its own destruction." Is this true? If a vice contains the means of its own destruction, how can ANY vise be warranted at all?

This may actually be a federal crime, it is almost certainly a violation of FTC rules. It most likely is a crime in your state, as well. You can write a letter to your state's attorney general and the FTC (they may have an on-line forms on their web sites.) The term "lifetime" has an accepted legal definition, and a company that uses that word is bound by what Black's Legal Dictionary SAYS it means! They may have some fine print on their actual warranty card that will get them off the hook, but if the front of the card says "lifetime warranty" then a bunch of weasel-words on the back in half-mm type may not undermine it.
After spending that much on a vise, I'd spend a day picketing in front of the store with a placard that says XXXXX SELLS CRAP. Or XXXXX DOESN'T HONOR WARRANTIES.
Picketing is a useful way to get a quick adjustment. BUT learn the rules first in your community. Usually they are, but not limited to: you have to stay on the sidewalk, you can't step into traffic (duh), you can't wave your sign into traffic, you can't impede pedestrians on the sidewalk in any way, you can't block ingress and egress of patrons or cars, you can't be vocal, you have to keep moving, you may talk to people about the issue IF they ask you first, and your local PD may have others. They may or may not have to be notified. The store may or may not need to be notified. Threatening to picket and notifying them in advance may get it settled without picketing. I have had issues twice where picketing came into play. Once, they replaced the item rather than have me picket, and the second time, I was there for about an hour and they offered me a new replacement tool.
I guess it all amounts to how much you want your pound of flesh.
And oh, yeah. Pick a nice weather day, and a busy one for them.
A few footnotes to your effort.
You can't be on private property without permission in general. I believe if the private property is an area to which the public customarily enjoys unpermitted access--like areas the "donation" crowd use to station themselves in front of stores--you should have a kindred right of access even if you are picketing. The last one your local PD may neither be aware of nor sympathetic to.
you can't step into traffic (duh), you can't wave your
You can be vocal. You just can't disturb the peace. Whatever the reporting authority decides that is.
It's really a free-speech question and the local PD should have none that are not nationally applicable. Period.
They may or may not have to
You don't have to notify anyone but see below for sage advice as to the immediate benefit of asking the store if they want to resolve things before or after.
Threatening to
It really should be a clear issue of a just cause. If you have a warranty, blow it up on picket signs with a notation "Would you want me to shop at a store that wouldn't honor your warranty?" That puts the other customers in your place. Have hand-out flyers. Blow up a dictionary definition of "lifetime" on a placard. Maybe the famous quote from Alice in Wonderland by the Red Queen "A word means what I say it means, no more, no less."
Edward Hennessey
Customer: "I'd like a refill. The sign says, 'All you can drink for 10 cents.'" Vendor: "One cupful IS all you can drink for 10 cents."
I knew a guy who described a bicycle club descending on a small cafe at the end of a day's ride, and ordering "all you can eat". When the cafe was out of food, the owner did indeed explain that they'd had all they could eat...

Interesting -- I've never had any problem getting a replacement from Sears, including on tools that I'd basically abused to death (a socket that had been used with a hammer to drive a friction-fit part into place comes to mind).

My memories of this are from the mid/late 70s and early 80s, when they had first gone with the trash vendors. I was in the store getting replacement sockets, ratchets, and such 3 or 4 times a week, usually with bandaged hands. Once I had to go to the store manager to get replacements, but usually the threat to go to him did it. HE got an earful that once, lemme tell ya. I don't recall having bought a searz tool since.
Not too many years after that, they were indicted for their parts replacement scams in the auto section, telling customers they needed parts that they didn't need. It cost 'em plenty. I'm surprised they're still in business. Their name is sure SHIT to me.
Given Wilton's ghastly pricing, their stuff should be built heavily enough to never need to be warrantied. Shame on them for a fake lifetime warranty.

Last week we skipped two meals, the Chipotle Honey Chicken and the Herbed Fish Wrapped in Lettuce, but managed to salvage them over the weekend. Those chipotle glazed sweet potatoes were out of this world. We also decided against mashed potatoes on Thursday and went with these Crispy Corn Cakes, which I veganized. Rick made a Sriracha-Honey dipping sauce to go with the Honey Thyme Pork Chops, but they were so tasty they didn't need it. It was, however, great with the corn cakes.
The biggest hit of the week was the Saag Tofu, although next time I wouldn't roast the tofu. I know some people prefer the "meatier" texture roasting gives, but I like tofu just the way it is and find roasting it makes it chewy and difficult to eat. The saag, on the other hand, was the creamiest homemade saag I have ever had. I did go the extra step of blending half of it with my hand blender, which just made the texture that much lusher. A definite keeper.
This week we're starting to bring in the fresher, lighter, spring recipes. Yay!
Monday: Ginger-Scallion Noodles with Tofu
Tuesday: Tender-Crisp Spring Braise
Wednesday: Sweet Potato Veggie Burgers with Avocado
Thursday: Seitan Stir-Fry with Oyster Sauce
Friday: One-Pot Salmon with Snap Peas & Rice

had a horrible experience at h&m the other day. there were like 4 members of staff in the whole store, one fitting room was closed off with massive heaps of clothes in front of it and there was no staff manning the other fitting room!
when i finally got into a room it was filled with clothes that people had tried on and left it was just super annoying, and i love h&m as a store but i think that's unacceptable! if theyre lacking staff they should hire more people! there's loads of people out there (including me) looking for summer jobs!
anwayy, the main point of this thread was to find out what everyone else thought was the worst high street store in terms of customer service
WORST high street shops ever!

All of them ... although Primark is on a level of its own ...
if you want good quality and good service you have to go to actual nice shops
New Look !!!!!!11
Primark, but i don't mind the mess and the sullen shop assistants because its dirt cheap.
I personally hate Lush because the smell will fell a rhino at 1000 paces, and the sales act of the aggressive staff is annoying beyond words.
Have to say my worst experience (I'm talking customer service not clothing or anything) is with H&M. Practically every time I go in they don't have enough staff and I'm left standing at the till looking around for someone to notice me. It's quite annoying.
Clothing wise...Primark. But I've never been in Aldo?
Aldo? Never heard of it. H&M is pretty bad everytime I go in there they seem to have hardly any staff. You are lucky to see one person at the tills. Dorethy Perkins need to get new curtains, I might as well change in the middle of the shop. The Zara near me is so empty, they don't seem to have any clothes !
I quite like H&M and usually customer service is decent, but one time I was in the queue for 10 minutes. It doesn't sound massively bad, but I was second in the queue. The cashier was busy chatting away to the guy in front of me, who ended up buying £400 worth of stuff. And not expensive stuff either, loads of little cheap things he kept on grabbing. To be fair, they looked understaffed.
My local Burtons is quite bad just because a lot of the staff are incredibly *****y. Granted, you get that in loads of shops, but these people take it to a whole new level.

If Peacocks was an option, it definitely would have gotten my vote! The clothes are worse quality than Primark, yet are overpriced for what they are, they all have an appalling fit and are made with horrible cheap material. Plus in my local store the staff are the rudest bunch of girls/women I have ever come across, I despise this shop!
As a general rule, the higher the store turnover is, the less fussed the company are about who they hire. That's why it's much easier to find a christmas temp job in retail if you have no experience than at any other time of the year. If the stores don't rely on friendly sales assistants to really make a sale, anyone interviewed will get the job.
Can't ****ing stand topman.

Aldo? Never heard of it. H&M is pretty bad everytime I go in there they seem to have hardly any staff. You are lucky to see one person at the tills. Dorethy Perkins need to get new curtains, I might as well change in the middle of the shop. The Zara near me is so empty, they don't seem to have any clothes !
New look is awful sometimes! In my store there is never any staff and hence nowhere to pay (upstairs and downstairs!)
H&M, Topman, River Island...all these type shops do my head in. I cant find anything in those shops. All the clothes in there are poorly manufactured, the styles are really douchey (especially in Topman) and some of the shop assistants look like clowns.
Topshop, the most disgusting styles and fashion I have ever seen.
In terms of customer service, also Topshop because the assistants are stupid enough to think that they're selling items of clothing actually worth money or even attention.
One time I went into a shop called Blue Inc (don't know if it's a popular high street chain) with my girlfriend. We went upstairs to look at the womens stuff and this female member of staff followed us up there. She followed us around the entire floor, standing no more than a few metres at all times. She made no attempt to look like she wasn't staring at us. We were the only three people on that floor. It was so weird and creepy - after we were sick of her we went and left, only to be followed by her again! Terrible way to act around potential customers.
Also Primarni is terrible and great at the same time - the only shop you can go into and throw clothes on the floor if you decide you don't like the look of it :P
Put it this way, all of those fall into my 'nightmare shops' list. Zara is probably my favourite, but I could live without.
Can't stand Primark and H&M, too much crap all over the place for my liking. Although a couple of us bought one of those horrendous devil onesies from there for Haloween, never again haha. Zara's probably my favorite out of the lot
I hated working at Topman. The managers were on super-high power trips, we were treated like idiots (even though some of us were more capable than them, and more qualified).
Secondly, they'd change my shifts around at short notice.
There would also be ripped clothes that I'd find when doing standards, I was told to keep it on the shop floor and not put a discount tag on it. The holes were in places people wouldn't notice, and it'd be really annoying for any customer to have to bring back and explain.
THE FITTING ROOM CURTAINS WERE TOO SMALL, I COULD SEE PEOPLE GETTING CHANGED IN THE MIRRORS, I told one manager and he said it was designed like that on purpose...
Eh, I still shop there though, I just had bad managers, who didn't care about the store, the staff or customers.

WBO Cruiserweight Champion Marco Huck (34-1, 25 KOs) has predicted a KO victory over WBA Heavyweight Champion Alexander Povetkin (23-0, 16 KOs) when they clash at Stuttgart´s Porsche Arena on Saturday night. Photos by Andreas Sauer.
"I plan to show my fans a great fight, which will end in a KO victory for me," Huck said at today´s public training. "Povetkin is a great champion but I will defeat him and finally accomplish my goal of becoming word heavyweight champion."
Povetkin is convinced his second title defence will again be a successful one.
"I have had a very good preparation with Alexander Zimin, all went very well," he stated. "I am ready for Saturday. I am here to defend my title. I will win."
In the co-featured main event, rising middleweight star Dominik Britsch (26-0, 9 KOs) faces Roberto Santos (17-6, 9 KOs) for the EU Title.

- Related Readings in Literature & History
Sample of Challenges & Opportunities
Antigone may be nearly 2500 years old, but the play's themes are just as relevant today as they were when Sophocles first penned this gem. Church vs. State? Individual vs. Nature? Conflict between genders? Civil disobedience? Fate or free will? No doubt your students have dealt with one or more of these themes in their own lives (possibly even this week!), so they'll be able to identify with many of the issues Antigone presents.
The play's characters are also very easy to understand from a modern standpoint. It's not hard for students to root for the upstart Antigone as she struggles to do what she thinks is right no matter the cost. Of course, it's equally easy to understand Ismene, who just wants to avoid trouble. Even Creon is relatable as he desperately tries to maintain order in his war-torn city.

Delta lost my luggage, delayed it's return and refused to refund the money I paid them!!!
AUTHOR: Dragonsblade - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, January 29, 2009POSTED: Thursday, January 29, 2009
Nowhere on my mainfest was Tampa or any part of Florida posted. It took three extra business days, and they disputed that the charges to the account were validated...
They sent me a $25.00 credit voucher for my next trip with them (after I told them I want nothing more to do with them, than to just get my refund of $15.00).
I am a man of principle, if you didn't earn it, don't take it. Apparently Delta Airlines feels that their mishandling of baggage and poor customer service is justified and should be rewarded.
If I can possibly help it, I wouldn't ever fly Delta again.. Furthermore, I sat next to a woman that said "She never had to pay a cent for her baggage fees, and she had check-in bags like I did."
Can anyone say discrimination? How the hell could she get free baggage per check-ins, while the rest of us pay? What, does Delta assume who's worthy of paying and who's not required by social standing?
If so, I think Delta would be looking at a lot of discrimination suits before them. One way to find out... Be careful when doing business with Delta Airlines.
The prices they charge for M&Ms and such are outrageous as well, $2.00 for that and $3.00 for disposable headseats to watch a movie or show?
I remember when airlines had those installed, and you could wear them without paying a cent. What happened to that?
Delta, don't blame the economy for your mistakes. People are not so dense, and realize that you are trying to make profit, while giving more limits to the customer than they deserve!!!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Progress Housing Group signs charity partner
Published by lpriest for Progress Housing Group in Housing and also in Care and Support, Communities
(L-R) Key's Director, Ursula Pattern and Jacqui De-Rose, Group Chief Executive for Progress Housing Group.
A Lancashire housing group has joined forces with homeless charity, Key Unlocking Futures, to help maintain and expand services to support young people facing homelessness.
Key is a Lancashire based charity who decided to join Progress Housing Group, which owns and manages over 10,000 homes, to extend its independent support work and provide much needed services for local people. Key predominantly provides support to young people up to the age of 25 who are homeless or worried that they might become homeless. Over the last year Key has provided services to 493 homeless, or potentially homeless, young people in the South Ribble and Chorley areas of Lancashire.
The range of services provided by the charity includes information and advocacy to young people who are either homeless or faced with homelessness. Key also provides floating support to young people in their accommodation. It offers a drop-in service for young people, counselling and mediation services as well as employment coaching.
Key remains an independent company, retaining it independent board of management and will continue to operate as a charity within the not-for-profit housing group. Key Unlocking Futures has also moved into new premises at Balfour Court in Leyland town centre, which have been provided by Progress Housing Group.
Jacqui De-Rose, Group Chief Executive of Progress Housing Group, said: 'I am delighted that our two organisations have come together. Our services are complementary in many ways and, by making the most of our combined knowledge and skills, we will be able to reach more people in need of support services. Key Unlocking Futures will remain an independent organisation and, in partnership, we will aim to increase service provision across the North West, continuing to make a positive difference in the communities in which we work.'
Gwen Crawford, Chair of Trustees at Key, said: 'Key Unlocking Futures is really pleased to have joined Progress Housing Group, as we believe they are just as committed as we are to providing excellent services for our clients. We have chosen to take this step because we believe that by working together we will be able to do more to support young people to cope during a difficult time in their lives and to move on to a better future.'
Progress Housing Group includes three housing subsidiaries, New Progress Housing Association, which owns 4,023 homes in the North West; New Fylde Housing Association, which owns 2,199 homes across the North West and the Group's supported housing provider, Progress Care Housing Association, which owns 4,128 homes across the UK. The Group employs over 500 staff and had an annual turnover in 2012/13 of £64m.
