Lazada Philippines Review – My thoughts after buying from them twice
Lazada is one of the more popular online stores here in the Philippines and if you're reading this post because you're not sure if the site is legit, I'm telling you now that it is.
If you're looking for proof that Lazada is not a shady site or if you're researching buyer experience before actually making a purchase, I think this post well serve you well :).
It's always prudent to do your research first before actually making a purchase, especially if you have no prior experience with the site or with online shopping. So kudos to you for doing your due diligence ;).
Again, Lazada is Legit!!!!
I wrote a review for another online shopping site called Zalora Philippines and despite that site being fairly popular as well (just like Lazada), I consistently got comments and private emails asking me if the items they sold were original, or if the site was legit, and similar other inquiries.
So for this post, I figured I'd just let you all know immediately in big bold letters that it is :).
I've bought from the site twice already and I've never had any problems. My friends have also purchased items from Lazada, some of them residing outside the metro and I've never heard them complain about their experience.
I wish they had more stuff… but they're ok
It's undoubtedly no Amazon, but the selection is ok. I really wish we had a one-stop-shop online where you could search for pretty much anything and find it there.
Take amazon for example. You can find anything you want there, from the most popular gadgets to the most obscure niche collectibles.
But even if Lazada isn't as massive as Amazon, the selection is decent and has its good points.
For example they don't take too long to deliver (in my experience at least). The items are also of good quality and original so if you're scared that you're gonna get some knockoff, rest assured that items on Lazada are as advertised. If it says it's a Nike shoe, then it's an original Nike shoe and not some cheap copy.
I love COD 🙂
The bestest thing about Lazada (and Zalora as well incidentally) is the Cash On Delivery (COD) Option that they have. I personally prefer to avoid using my card if I can so the COD option is a god send.
COD not only allows you to avoid interest accumulation on your card (and the hassle of having to go to wherever you have to pay them) but it's also a brilliant way of encouraging first time purchasers to give online shopping a try.
I know that most people avoid shopping online because they don't like exposing their sacred credit card numbers to the big bad online world. Which is a legitimate fear in my opinion, especially if you have no experience in buying anything online.
With COD, Lazada shoulders most of the risk in the transaction and their customers get pretty much all the upside. When you make a purchase Lazada will have to deliver the item hoping that you or someone you designate will be there with the money promised them when they knock on your door.
So the customers don't actually pay anything until the moment that the item is at their doorstep.
I think this is brilliant and very apt for the type of consumers we have here in the Philippines. A lot of buyers here have never purchased anything online and this is a great way to baby step them and build their experience and confidence when it comes to shopping online.
How long does it take to deliver?
I ordered my Iron Gym last Thursday and got it Sunday afternoon. That's two and a half days. I live in the Metro Manila so it was pretty fast.
They even sent me a text Sunday morning to inform me that my item would be arriving that day.
Here's a picture of what I bought.
This is my second purchase. My first was a pair of earphones and I believe they arrived at around 2 or 3 days from online purchase as well.
The iron gym came wrapped in plastic but I already took that out so you won't see it in the above picture. There's no special packaging or anything like that when you buy from Lazada. Whatever the original packaging of the item you buy is, that's what you'll get (which is normal).
So is there anything to watch out for?
I didn't experience this personally but I have read posts/comments in other blogs about some other buyers receiving incorrect items. Lazada does allow returns but from what I've read they seem to be horrendous at it. You will get your money back and/or the correct item but it seems to take a while.
I don't know how much their return process has improved now (the posts I read were either months or years old) but I hope you never have to return your items in the first place lol.
If you're afraid of this though just always pick Cash on delivery. That way you can check during the delivery if the item is correct or not. If it's not, just tell the delivery guy to return it. Simple.
Again, this didn't happen to me. I'm fairly satisfied with my orders but I figured I might as well let you all know that the company is not perfect and online shopping is still relatively new here in the Philippines. So there should still be some kinks in their system.
UPDATE: You might be interested to know that if you're ordering multiple items, they might not arrive at the same time. I just ordered 3 more items last monday and the first one got delivered today (wednesday). The delivery guy said that happens sometimes. Not sure why this happens. Maybe they dont stockpile their items in one place and source them only when an order is palced. You dont get extra overhead though for delivery and i think all items should still arrive within 5 days if you're in the metro so I don't really mind.
hmmmm…. that's pretty much all I have to say about Lazada I guess. All that's left is to show you how I made my purchases.
Step-by-step guide to purchasing at Lazada.com.ph
First thing you need to do is head over to their site and pick the item you want. You can either use the search feature or just go through the categories to find what you want.
Once you find the item that you want, click it and it'll take you to the items main page. When you get to the main page, you'll see a lot of info about the item you want.
It'll show you if the item is available and how long delivery time will take if you're inside or outside the metro.
If you've already made up your mind to get the item, just hit the "Buy Now" button.
A pop up asking you to confirm your order and asking you for the number of units should com out. At the bottom of the pop up will be two options.
The first on the lower left of the box, is a small text link that will say "Close and continue shopping". Hit this if you want to add more items to your cart before you check out.
The second option on the lower right side of the box is a rather obvious orange "Proceed to checkout" button. Choose this one if you're done shopping.
If you decide to check out, you'll be taken to a page where you're asked to sign in. There are two options here.
You can either just sign in with your email, or if you have an existing Lazada account, you can use that (you need to type in your password as well). Me I just input my email (the first option).
Once you hit continue, you'll be taken to a page where you'll input your personal information and delivery address. Do that and make sure that you don't make any mistakes especially with the address.
Once you hit continue, you'll reach the final step of the order process. You get to select what payment method you'll be using. I personally always go with Cash On Delivery but other options are also available.
After placing your order, you'll go the order confirmation page which will have your order number. This same information will also be emailed to the address you used to sign in so you don't need to write this down if you don't want to.
That's it you're done 🙂
So I hope this post has been helpful in some way. Buying from Lazada is safe and I hope that I've somehow convinced you of that.
I can't promise that your experience with them will be as good as mine. But hopefully it will be hehe.
Happy Online Shopping Everyone :).

Pingback: Zalora Philippines Review - My First Purchase Experience
Emmanuel Isidro
You must be pretty lucky. I ordered an Asus Zenfone 5 Lite on January 1, 2015 and paid via paypal, and they gave me this tracking number [L0631531J] and told me to check the status on http://supplychain.2go.com.ph/index.asp. That was a week ago. You can try it out if it shows any result. I've sent 2 tickets, never had any response. Lazada is the WORST online site I have ever shopped on. I have tried ebay multiple times, bought from both local and international sellers, and never had any problem. I have been buying online from 2008 up to now. I thought lazada would deliver quick because its a local one, but I was very, very wrong. I opened a dispute with paypal, and no surprise at all, lazada never made any response. No response to support tickets I opened on their site, no response to paypal dispute. NEVER will I buy again from lazada, ever.
COD rules! My biggest purchase so far was for Alcatel Flash 2. It arrived earlier than expected and in excellent condition. Never had a problem with the unit til now.
my issue goes like this, I order a speaker 1 item but my BDO debit card has no exp. date on it, i just continue, it appears on "my orders" the question is how did it happen it should be invalid caus i didnt fill up the exp. date i repeat the proces i did and my problem grows in the "My Orders placed in" I have 3 orders with the same item i need only one but i cant cancel it caus they dont email me the track number and there is no cancel option Im afraid Im going to pay all the 3 items and I wont recieve the item caus i didnt fill up all the payment form but i did put my account number please anyone help or explain if its ok?
hope i can provide you a picture but i dont know how to upload from this comment
in my order its just show i have 3 place order the rest is blank not like the picture you try to show in your comment
I always choose Cash-on-delivery when buying products from Zalora and Lazada. This way I receive that product first before paying for them.
Are they selling original MK bags? it is very cheap compared to US price in MK stores.
If its multiple item or different day shipment, do I pay for full amount on first shipment?
Hi ! I just ordered a phone from Lazada via COD. I am nervous and hesitant now due to lots of negative comments I've read. Question is, do you happen to know if I can open the package and check if the item I ordered is in good working condition before paying the delivery guy?
I've ordered thrice with about ten items. twice through COD and once through credit card. Never had any problem. Probably the best option for local items.

According to the Indian research institute TAM, TV5MONDE Asie has a very strong reputation and audience in India with an average weekly cumulative audience of over 680,000 viewers.
The partnership deal was completed by TV5MONDE's India Broadcast Licensee's and Agent, CATVISION Ltd, who has been representing the French-speaking channel since 1998.
Available on channel No. 157 on Airtel Digital TV absolutely free-of-charge on its "Ultra" and "South Ultra" recharge packs and at an a la carte rate of Rs.50 on all other packs, TV5MONDE will offer a wide variety of exclusive English subtitled primetime films, world-class sports events, high-quality documentaries, kids' programs, cooking and design lessons, as well as exciting game shows and in-depth coverage of international news to Airtel customers, especially the French entertainment content lovers and French speakers in the country.

Heart disease health centre

Common heart drug questioned
3rd October 2012 - A new study suggests many patients may not benefit from beta-blockers, one of the most commonly prescribed medications for heart disease.
The research from Chicago, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, shows beta-blockers are not associated with a lower risk of heart attacks or stroke among patients with only coronary artery disease risk factors, or those who have had a prior heart attack, or those with coronary artery disease without a prior heart attack.
Beta-blockers work by slowing down the heart and stopping it beating too quickly and too forcefully. This reduces the amount of work the heart has to do and also increases the amount of blood it is able to pump with each beat.
They're life savers for people with heart failure and others with fragile hearts badly damaged by heart attacks. However, they're also given to people whose hearts aren't so fragile, including:
- People at high risk of heart disease
- People with partially blocked arteries (coronary artery disease, or CAD) but who have not had a heart attack
- Heart attack survivors
Dr Sripal Bangalore, who led the research, told us:"In all these three subgroups of patients, there is no benefit of using beta-blockers." He says recommendations for beta-blockers are mostly based on data collected two decades ago. Since then, treatment of heart attack and CAD patients has greatly improved.
Amy Thompson, Senior Cardiac Nurse at the British Heart Foundation, says in a press statement: "Beta-blockers are commonly prescribed in the UK to treat a range of conditions, including high blood pressure and heart failure. This study refines our understanding of who does, and who does not, benefit from taking a beta-blocker."
Beta-blockers study
Dr Bangalore and an international team of researchers looked at data from more than 44,000 people who were either at high risk of coronary heart disease, had coronary heart disease, or had suffered a heart attack some time ago.
They followed up patients and looked at whether patients given beta-blockers were less likely to die of heart disease or to suffer a heart attack or stroke. They weren't.
They found beta-blocker use was not associated with a lower number of heart attacks and strokes across these groups.
"We have shown in our study that if you have a heart attack and take beta-blockers for a year, you probably will benefit," Dr Bangalore says. "But the question is, how long after a heart attack would beta-blockers offer a benefit? The European Union says use these drugs long-term only in patients with heart failure."
Senior Cardiac Nurse, Amy Thompson, says:"In this country, the current recommendations are that everyone who has an acute heart attack should be offered a beta-blocker, as they have been proven to reduce the risk of a further heart attack and death. However, these guidelines are under constant review and the results of this study are likely to be considered when they are next updated.
"If you take a beta-blocker, don't stop taking it as this could worsen your symptoms. If you have any concerns about your medication, it's best to talk it over with your GP first."

Jazz scene is hoppin' during December in Pittsburgh
December is a special jazz month for me.
In 1964, my parents bought me an album by the Modern Jazz Quartet because they liked the group's version of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" — which they called "England's Carol."
I had never heard of the MJQ — or jazz, really — but the album began my addiction to the genre.
It seems appropriate, then, to begin this column in December. At the beginning of every month, I will alert you to events coming up or other jazz-related items that are worth consideration.
Have a happy holiday – and keep listening.
Monty Alexander
Monty Alexander and the Manchester Craftsmen's Guild will be marking decades of success at the pianist's concert.
The guild has been celebrating its 30th season as a concert venue, but Alexander is raising a toast to 40 years with bassist John Clayton and drummer Jeff Hamilton. His trio will perform Dec. 3 at the guild on Pittsburgh's North Side.
"It is just like a joyful explosion whenever we play," says the native of Jamaica. "We are different but it is a kind of happy different."
Alexander says the three of them started working together in a coincidental way four decades ago. The pianist was looking for a bassist and was directed to Clayton by Pittsburgh native Ray Brown. Clayton then steered him toward Hamilton when drummer Louis Hayes left the trio.
Over the years, the three have been busy with many other projects, but always come back to performing together.
"It keeps me busy — and out of trouble," Alexander says with a laugh.
The trio will play at 6 and 8:30 p.m. The first show is sold out, but there are seats available at $49.50 for the second. Details: 412-322-0800 or mcgjazz.org
John Pizzarelli
John Pizzarelli is a one-man jazz and cabaret show.
But on his visit here Dec. 16 at the Manchester Craftsmen's Guild he will be joined for a holiday concert by his wife, singer Jessica Molaskey.
Pizzarelli, son of the great jazz guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli, has moved from focusing on jazz to being a convincing presenter of the Great American Songbook. But never fear, Pizzarelli always has his guitar so jazz won't be forgotten.
Music is at 7 and 9:30 p.m. Both shows are sold out. Details: 412-322-0800 or mcgjazz.org
Sean Jones
Sean Jones will be showing off his new album Dec. 17 at the August Wilson Center in Pittsburgh.
The trumpeter, who taught at Duquesne University for 10 years before moving to Boston, will be focusing his music on "Live at the Jazz Bistro" recorded at the St. Louis club of that name.
Jones, who now teaches at the Berklee College of Music, was a busy part of the jazz scene during his decade here and it is good to see him returning so often.
Music begins at 8 p.m. Admission is $38.25 and $48.25. Details: 412-456-6666 or trustarts.org
David Murray
David Murray will lift the James Street Gastropub & Speakeasy to a higher level Dec. 11.
Murray, one of the founders of the World Saxophone Quartet, will be at the club's ballroom with multi-instrumentalist Harrison Bankhead and percussionist Kahil El'Zabar.
It is a production of promoter Manny Theiner who has for years tried to keep this area aware of forward-looking jazz. With Murray, anything can happen. He is an inventive, forceful saxophonist/reed player who also knows the importance of melody and quieter moments.
Music begins at 7:30 p.m. Admission is $30. Details: 800-838-3006 or brownpapertickets.com
Benny Benack III
Tuesday evening jazz sessions in the Theater Square complex in downtown Pittsburgh are a weekly treat throughout the year, but the event Dec. 27 is a real Christmas gift.
Trumpeter/singer Benny Benack III will offer his tasty, ever-maturing brand of jazz at the Backstage Bar beginning at 5 p.m.
The Upper St. Clair native who is the latest of three jazz players to bear that name, has been steadily building a career in New York City and on national tours. The Backstage Bar becomes a rival of clubs like New York's Jazz Standard for this night.
The show is free. Details: 412-456-6666 or trustarts.org

Jefferson Parish did not abuse its authority when it called for a land-use study and construction moratorium on 24 acres around Behrman Highway in 2007, a state district court judge ruled last week.
Judge Stephen Enright, of 24th Judicial District Court, in Gretna ruled against two landowners who sued the parish in 2008, claiming officials used the zoning study to quash a $1.2 million deal the owners had with Volunteers of America to build a 200-unit affordable housing complex for seniors on a 4.4-acre parcel.
Thelma and Richard Berry said opposition to the development by Jefferson Parish Councilman Chris Roberts, who called for the study, showed the parish was acting in bad faith.
They said the development moratorium triggered by the study prevented Volunteers of America from being able to qualify for tax breaks needed to make the deal work financially, and the organization walked away from the deal.
The parish, however, countered in court that the comprehensive plan adopted in 2003 called for such a study in cases where a proposed development is out of step with what the plan designates as the goal for the area. The Berrys' property was zoned for mixed-use commercial development, but the comprehensive plan called for the area to be low-density residential.
The Berrys pointed to a variety of other nonconforming uses in the area, but the parish maintained those projects preceded the plan and were grandfathered in when it was adopted. They never would have been allowed as new developments, the parish said, and the proposed Volunteers of America apartment complex was simply too dense.
Enright said the main goal of the comprehensive plan is to preserve existing neighborhoods, and he ruled the parish was acting within its legitimate authority to protect the health, safety and welfare of the public when it called for the study.
As for Roberts' opposition, the judge noted there was opposition from residents within his district and that public input is a fair part of the process.
Enright dismissed the Berrys' claim that the ultimate split zoning approved for the property — commercial in the front section and residential in the back — amounted to theft of the land, noting that the prohibition against taking of private property for public use without just compensation — enshrined in the Fifth Amendment — does not guarantee the landowner the most profitable use of his or her property.
The ruling noted that Volunteers of America also was not able to get a designated but unbuilt street running through the property revoked and that a pipeline servitude it needed to get canceled was still in place when the tax credits expired.
Enright's ruling said the burden of proof on the plaintiffs in a case of this kind is "extraordinary" and that the Berrys failed to show the parish made its decision unreasonably or arbitrarily.
He dismissed the suit with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled, though his ruling can be appealed.
Richard Berry could not be reached for comment Saturday.

Nokia Networks will provide LTE-Advanced equipment and services that will cover new spectrum bands, helping to improve coverage and capacity for in-building, highway and rural areas. The agreement also helps to expand the availability of T-Mobile's nationwide Voice over LTE (VoLTE) service. "With Nokia Networks' LTE equipment and services expertise, we will continue to expand coverage and enhance performance of our LTE network for our customers," said Neville Ray, CTO for T-Mobile. "The new agreement builds upon our long-standing relationship with Nokia Networks." T-Mobile's LTE solution is comprised of Nokia Networks' Flexi Multiradio10 base station platform for 700MHz radio sites and its LTE/GSM RF sharing solution for 1900MHz sites. As part of the agreement, Nokia Networks is providing LTE-Advanced carrier aggregation for all T-Mobile spectrum bands. Nokia Networks' customer data management solution has also been enhanced to support VoLTE and many of T-Mobile's Un-carrier initiatives, including next-gen Wi-Fi Calling, unlimited music streaming and international roaming at no additional charge. In addition, Nokia Networks' project management, network implementation, Care and planning services will help ensure rapid deployment of the new LTE technology, building on the success of previous projects to modernise T-Mobile's network. "This contract with T-Mobile is a testament to Nokia Networks' innovative solutions and high-performance team mindset – a heritage we've brought to the relationship over the last 16 years," said Ricky Corker, executive vice president of North America for Nokia Networks (pictured above). "We're pleased to be an integral part of T-Mobile's continued network expansion, helping them offer LTE coverage to more and more customers." Since the 2012 T-Mobile 4G LTE modernisation, Nokia Networks has deployed 4x2 and 4x4 MIMO-capable radio technology in its LTE base stations. This functionality can be remotely configured and activated, giving advanced capacity and data throughput. Currently, T-Mobile is enabling 4x2 MIMO.James Atkinson EditorLinkedIn |Google + |Email Leave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...

High Street Heroes – Sainsbury's Home and it's Restoration Kitchen Range
It's time to give the heart of the home a little love. When we moved into our new house three years ago the kitchen was a done deal. We'd had some say on colours and finishes, and went for white cupboards, a black worktop and a black tiled floor. But essentially it was a basic 'new development' kitchen. We've since added white metro tiles with black grout. And that's it. Everything in it (apart from our old dining table and chairs) was new then, and the newness novelty is definitely wearing off.
12 piece dinner set, £40.
I have some controversial plans to add a bold tropical wallpaper. Controversial according to the BF that is, who is still not convinced. The wooden table top is going to get stripped as soon as the weather is dry enough to get it outside, and the legs are going to be painted black. I'm also going to add a black pendant lamp above the table. All not before time.
Enamel saucepan, £6. Large oak serving board with metal handle, £16. Wire egg holder, £4.
And then I spied the new Restoration Kitchen Range from Sainsbury's Home. A collection of tableware, cookware and utility items that will fit right in with the look I'm trying to achieve. The smart black, white and grey ceramics are perfect for a modern, urban kitchen, but the oak touches warm the collection up. And the enamel and aged aluminium items add a slightly industrial vibe, making the whole range a lot more edgy and bang-on-trend.
Striped straws, £1.50. Small stacking jars, £6. Large stacking jars, £8.
What's making the collection even more desirable is the price range. I filled my shopping basket with two metal handled, oak serving boards, two smart black canisters with oak lids, and a whole variety of metal racks and holders, and got change from £70. All of the items look much more expensive I have to say, and I'm looking forward to using them.
Pop-up storage boxes (bottom shelf), £8 each. Glass bottles, £3.50.
All available from Sainsbury's Home.

Love those storage jars. Slightly mid century but minimal and timeless. Good job Sainsbury's!
February 13, 2017 5:29 pm
I really enjoyed this post, and the photographs are beautiful too! Personally I love your idea of using tropical wallpaper in the kitchen (would it be so terrible to do it and hope the BF likes it in the end? ;)! ), especially with the black and white.
I love your black grout in white tiles – it's not something I've thought of doing but will certainly consider doing now (my boyfriend and I are buying our first home this year and I can't wait to DIY the kitchen!).
I'll take a look in Sainsburys for these beautiful things; I like their range of non-stick pans too, much more than any other shop, in fact).
Flora 🙂

I have teo 96's and love them. I have one with the standard frame with a Vertec upper, and one
full vertec. The Vertec frame offers more of a 1911 style grip that is a bit smaller, and no
longer made....
Posted in thread: Glock vs Sig on 11-05-2012 at 03:51 PM
Yea and they are nice looking guns...I wish they made the 226 combat in .40 cause I love the
look of that gun
Posted in thread: Glock vs Sig on 11-05-2012 at 03:37 PM
Yea but is sig really worth the premium price or is it just "the cool kid" on the block right
now. Shot a glock growing up and it was a great gun never saw it fail once.

lookin for a .40. I've held the gun and I like the full size of it, my hands are big so the
wide grip doesn't...
Posted in thread: Glock 27 resale value? on 11-02-2012 at 12:11 PM
I'm in south jersey...I would hope I could find a buyer quick. My future father in-law did get
around $400 on trade for his g27...I'd be happy with that.
Posted in thread: Glock 27 resale value? on 11-01-2012 at 05:52 PM
What could I realistically get for a G27 not sure what gen. almost never fired? Looking to use
it as a trade in for something full size?

Greetings and welcome to the new week of Apple [AAPL] rumor, speculation and negative spin -- and this promises to be a particularly interesting week as the company announces its financial results only to be pilloried by analysts and pundits whatever it admits.
[ABOVE: 10,000 iPhones fall like dominoes in this popular clip, though only one iPhone was damaged in the attempt.]
We are witnessing a ghastly example of group consensus as yet more anti-Apple rhetoric blips across the incomprehensible algorithms that drive the entity known as Google News, as critics focus on what doesn't matter and skip the one thing that does.
This morning's obsessions (with a few counter notions) include:
Criticisms of Apple's financial performance
It seems the company isn't immune to the appalling financial climate the seeds of which were originally sown by the bankers on Wall Street who invest in Apple stock in order to complain when the financial meltdown they created impacts their most profitable stock.
Apple iPhone 5S "delayed"
Delayed? That's a terribly unusual claim when you consider that while the iPhone 5S has been speculated about it has never actually been announced -- how can an unannounced product be delayed? Expectation may have been thwarted, but that's all.
Foxconn hit with up to 8 million iPhone returns
An astonishing claim from a single source that doesn't match up with any recorded iPhone durability study, in each of which the iPhone excels. Such a massive return of product should be seen as a positive -- Apple clearly cares enough about quality not to sell potentially faulty devices, a lesson many of its competitors would heed if they truly cared for consumers. Could this be related to the delay report above?
"Poison" Apple
Yet another tale in circulation today (from Business Insider) claims Apple's component manufacturers in the Asia Pacific call the firm "Poison Apple."
Why? Because they don't like being so heavily reliant on Apple for their business, driving them to find other big customers to work with. Which makes sense from a business point of view, but also hints at something far more alarming: that in the current climate there are no other big customers to serve.
Tim Cook must go
A meme that likes to show itself from time-to-time is the "Tim Cook must go" argument. Who is it coming from? Apple's enemies, as Apple 2.0 observes. Think then about what it means when your enemies talk against you. We know this usually means your foes fear you. Investors might support a man Apple's enemies fear. It probably means Tim Cook's doing quite well.
Hidden treasures
These are just a few of the slices of negative rhetoric being thrown at the Californian fruit company this morning, but three of them probably tell a story in themselves, so consider this alternative explanation:
Apple's iPhone 5S may have hit unexpected production issues causing the first run of eight million of the devices to be returned and factories retooled to deal with the problem. The result of this might be that the new iPhone won't ship in mid-summer as we might have expected.
That's bad news in lots of ways, not least that it gives Apple's big nemesis, "sneaky" Samsung (I wonder if that name will catch on?) a chance to sell a few of its smartphones, not that it ever discloses sales numbers (sneakily).
It's also good news because it suggests Apple isn't prepared to compromise on user experience or quality. There's a huge business case to ship the new iPhone, but it has declined to do so because the first units aren't up to standard. This might impact financial performance for everyone in its component supply chain, but it's a huge commitment to customer experience.
That's important because it means that when it comes to putting its money where its mouth is, Apple's most important priority is its customers, not Wall Street, investors or critics.
Apple puts customers, not critics, first
A move to return eight million units of the new (or an earlier model) of iPhone means Apple's focus on customer experience is its raison d'etre. That's why it's safe to suggest Maps will pretty soon be the best mapping service in the world -- because the company will invest everything it can to transform that experience.
Maybe this is why the critics hate Tim Cook -- because he remains focused on customer experience. How they must have hoped that following the loss of Steve Jobs Apple would transform into some other boringly predictable commodity-style consumer electronics company that easily fits inside their own boringly predictable, "greed is good" world view.
This hasn't happened, and that's a good thing.
It means that despite stock market jitters, criticism at every turn, intense competition and occasional dirty tricks by those set against it, Apple remains focused on pleasing its customers. That's arguably the only thing that matters, and a testament to the strength of the company's current management.
It's unfortunate Apple's critics seem unlikely to see it that way as they seek to foster a perfidious environment of anti-iPhone negativity. Apple's customers, however, will benefit from that focus on them, not Wall Street. Apple's focus on customers will seed future growth far more effectively than listening to the analysts ever can.

LIM completes Colchester refurb
Published: 01 September, 2010
LaSalle Investment Management has completed a major refurbishment which has transformed the Lion Walk shopping centre in Colchester
The investment manager bought the 200,000-sq ft Lion Walk in 2008 on behalf of its LaSalle UK Ventures Fund and immediately set about planning the £1.5 million refurbishment of the 1970s mall to upgrade and modernise the fabric and common areas.
The result is startling and is encouraging new tenants to come to the scheme and existing tenants to consider expansion plans. An Apple re-seller has committed to a unit at 7 Lion Walk and a new flagship Topshop/Topman is due to open at 20/21 Culver Walk in the Autumn.
LIM national director Paul Till said: "When we purchased the Lion Walk shopping centre it was clear that there was an opportunity to redesign and refurbish this prime location to enhance the asset and improve the shopping experience. However, it was important that any work reflected the heritage of the city and provided a timeless quality, reducing the requirement for additional capital investment in future years. We were also determined to get maximum value for money for our investors."
The company worked with local Architects Stanley Bragg, Project Manager Bourne Wood Partnership and Agents GCW all of whom contributed to the design input. ISG Jackson completed the work on a 'design and build' contract.

"I didn't go anywhere this weekend, but I went to Mississippi State a couple of weeks ago," said Washington. "Josh Boyd was my host. He's a cool guy.
"The visit was real nice. I liked it a lot. Mississippi State is coming to see me this Thursday. Coach Mullen is coming with the other coaches."
The Bulldogs' depth chart will be a central point of David's discussions with the Mississippi State head coach.
"I want to talk to them about what all they have coming back and who all they redshirted last year," said Washington. "I want to know how early they plan on me seeing the field."
The Lovejoy standout was able to learn more about his options in the Commonwealth earlier this evening when he and his family entertained a collection of coaches from Kentucky.
"Joker Phillips came by tonight and a few coaches," said David. "It was a good conversation. I am going to visit there this weekend. I have been up there a couple of times, but this time it is an official.
"I am going to make my decision after I get back from Kentucky. It's still pretty much even right now."
Once Washington has spent time on the UK campus, he will make his final deliberations about his future.
"I am going to talk about things with my family and then make my decision," said David. "I am going to take football out of it and pick the place I would be happiest if I wasn't going to play football."

About MeI am a hungry artist!! All I want to do is play with hair and do makeup!! I currently work behind the chair at a salon in Sugarhouse. My portfolio is really sparse so I am hoping this will be a good networking tool. I am open to anything, I don't have any specific style that I like more than others BUT I am not interested in hair work that requires props or extra hair pieces. That is outside of my creative ability. As far as makeup goes, I have taken several classes. I love it almost as much as cutting hair. I can do anything from bridal to drag.. but no theatrical.

Even if you can't invest like the rich, you can invest in them. Canada's pension funds sure are.
Institutional money has found a new preferred destination in U.S. luxury retail chains, representing a bet that the world's affluent consumers will rediscover their lavish side.
On Monday, the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board reached a deal in partnership with U.S. private equity firm Ares Management LLC to purchase Neiman Marcus Inc., the Dallas-based department store chain, for $6-billion (U.S.).
In July, Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan also invested in luxury U.S. retail, committing $500-million to support Hudson's Bay Co. in its proposed takeover of Saks Inc.
But ordinary investors looking at following in the footsteps of the big pension funds should realize this isn't a get-rich-quick strategy.
The pair of deals comes during a soft patch for most high-end chains. While luxury consumption has sustained the sector throughout the economic recovery, high-income Americans have become uncharacteristically frugal this year.
Executives at premier retailers would almost unanimously agree that the second quarter was one that should be forgotten. Saks, Ralph Lauren Corp., Coach Inc. and Nordstrom Inc. have all disappointed investors. "We have had a very strong last three years coming off the recession," Mike Koppel, chief financial officer at Nordstrom, told analysts last month. "There's been all kinds of stories out there in terms of all the different macro factors that may be affecting [more recent] consumer spending."
It could be sagging consumer confidence, fears about emerging market weakness, or a combination of worries. "That's something everybody is trying to get their arms around," said Dorothy Lakner, retail analyst at Topeka Capital Markets in New York.
The expectation that the U.S. Federal Reserve will start to slow the pace of its bond buying program could be weighing on the well-off. Quantitative easing is generally thought to have had an uplifting effect on equities, which has been good for those whose wealth and incomes are primarily tied to the markets. Since the pit of the recession, the S&P 500 has risen by 145 per cent, and almost 25 per cent since just November.
"If the stock market's doing well, usually luxury spending is pretty solid," said Brian Yarbrough, an Edward Jones analyst.
Higher taxes could help explain the reluctance to spend. This year, all U.S. earners were hit with payroll tax hikes, with the wealthiest bearing the largest increase to tax rates.
"It's caused some temporary sluggishness in spending patterns," said Liz Dunn, an analyst with Macquarie Securities. "In the near term I think they're just absorbing increased taxation."
A resilient stock market would help restore spending growth, as would a continuation of the U.S. housing recovery. Rising property values add to the wealth effect of U.S. homeowners.
"The affluent consumer is in pretty good shape," Ms. Lakner said. "It's hard to argue otherwise unless you just point to some sort of general world malaise."
Looking beyond the spending lull, Teachers and CPPIB have identified buying opportunities in luxury retail and so too might retail investors, particularly those with faith in the U.S. stock market and residential real estate market. "If you have a longer-term investing horizon, I think you could do pretty well," Mr. Yarbrough said.
Coach recently announced a leadership change and set out a plan of expansion both geographically and into product lines beyond handbags, Ms. Dunn said. She rates the stock one of two top picks in the category; the other is Ralph Lauren, which continues to move beyond apparel. Both stocks have fallen by 13 per cent off their year-to-date highs.
International expansion is crucial to the fortunes of the enduring luxury brands, Ms. Dunn said. As the major emerging market economies have risen in wealth and profile, high-income consumers have embraced Western luxuries. And the worst predictions for the Chinese economy have not yet come to pass. "The outlook for global luxury spending is even more robust outside of the U.S.," she said.
Although investors in Tiffany & Co. must also weigh the movements of precious metals prices, the jeweller is well-positioned to increase sales through its ongoing expansion into Europe and Asia Pacific, Ms. Lakner said. She has a "buy" recommendation on Tiffany with a price target of $95. Even if China falters, the company's presence there is small enough that the expansion could continue apace, she said, establishing "a catalyst for spending globally."Report Typo/Error

Mary M – Downtown Loft 2
Released: July 5, 2015
Sultry sweetheart Mary M touches herself through her figure-hugging dress, then slides it off so she can caress her bare skin. She lies back to stroke her furry pussy, fingers rubbing in sensuous circles over her clit and then pushing inside her hot honeypot. She moves to her knees, thrusting back against her fingers as she diddles her clit frantically; then stands with one leg raised so she can ride her probing fingers, the wet sounds of arousal mingling with her moans of pleasure. A powerful orgasm brings her tumbling back to her knees, and as she caresses her body in the afterglow, her saucy smile lets you know that she hopes you enjoyed it too…

Not a laminated bind of illustrations and typed words, but an honest to good ness, professionally laid out, proofread and marketed, true to life, published book.
Where does someone even begin such a daunting process, let alone harness the resources to bring it to fruition?
Jackie Sullivan whose son, Ryan, attended DeGrau's class and her sister Barbara Perchaluk executive vice president of Gianettino & Meredith Advertising Agency, who provided a substantial portion of the funding for the undertaking were brainstorming about a project they might do together with Ryan's class.
According to Sullivan, "The curriculum goal this year is a writing goal. We finally decided to go through the actual process of writing a book with them. The children began this process years back in kindergarten by writing stories and spiral binding them together. We did not want to repeat that process; rather we wanted to provide them with a unique literary experience.
"Of course, neither of us had any idea of how to go about such a awesome operation. After a meeting in November, (between Donna DeGrau, Jackie Sullivan and Barbara Perchaluk,) we sent home notices asking for contributions of talent from anyone who might have aptitude in this area. We drew up a list of writers, illustrators, editors, publishers, and printers in Hunterdon County. The project was going to be sophisticated, advanced and in-depth."
While December brought winter holiday disruptions, time was not to be lost upon the budding young authors.
'Tour Of The Senses'
"They were told to pay attention to any stories that they read, and note what they liked, didn't, and most importantly, why. By the time January rolled around, they were ready to go."
On Fridays, the third grade students would engage in exercises designed to expand their writing creativity.
A "Tour of the Senses" took the budding authors throughout the schools various departments: the cafeteria, library, even the boiler group, after which the children would write about what they had seen, smelled, heard. "And they weren't supposed to use ordinary terms to convey their experience," Sullivan added enthusiastically.
As luck would have it, the first Hunterdon County author to return Sullivan's call was Pamela Swallow. She had written The Writer's Workbook, which describes just how to go about the process of producing published material. What's more, her book is geared just toward the 8 to 10 age group.
The Readington Township Home School Association provided the funding for all third graders to receive a copy of this book as part of their regular curriculum. Swallow came in throughout the school year to engage the children in the many writing exercises, free of charge.
By the end of February, the students had worked up their first drafts and the stories went home for editing.
No book is complete with artwork, and things fell into place.
"Coincidentally," explained Sullivan, "the kickoff illustrator was Denise Brunkus, illustrator of the Junie B. Jones books. Her work is geared towards this age group and everyone was already familiar with it.
"Both Pam and Denise were highly instrumental in enthusing the children. They helped the children personalize the characters. They lost their fear of the blank page. Both of these successful women got their ideas from familiar surroundings ," said Sullivan.
When the time finally came to draw pictures, 12 art students from Hunterdon Central High School and two from Bernard's High School volunteered their free time and aided the young authors. "The group met 3 times, during which they developed a visual representation of their stories. The high school students came every week, for no compensation. They even had to arrange their own transportation."
Another Hunterdon County illustrator, Lena Schiffman, "came in and showed the children rough sketches, dummies and galleys," said Sullivan. "She showed the children that art work needs to be developed until a finished product is achieved . Often, in the real market, illustrator and author never even get a chance to meet."
Eighteen potential titles were submitted and finally, "Awesome Authors First Anthology" was voted the winner by the class.
In April and May, Gianettino & Meredith Advertising Agency took over and typeset and began the marketing process with the class.
The kids had to approve each step of the process. They learned the difference between and hard sell and a soft sell. They created flyers and made tabletop advertisements for school cafeteria tables. "By the end of May, there was no question as to what the message they needed to deliver was. Buy our book," said Sullivan.
Top Shelf Printing in Whitehouse donated the first 100 copies of the work and both Whitehouse Library and Three Bridges Library had purchased a copy.
The book signing party was the culmination of the massive academic endeavor, both for students, faculty and parents.

Taking action to address our impact
From 2001 to 2015, we collaborated with three conservation NGOs – Earthwatch Institute, Fauna & Flora International and the Tropical Biology Association – in the British American Tobacco Biodiversity Partnership.
The Partnership focused on some of the challenging issues surrounding the conservation and management of biodiversity within agricultural landscapes and the ecosystems on which they depend.
This 15-year Partnership concluded at the end of 2015, but its legacy lives on in the projects that continue to thrive and in how it has helped to embed biodiversity management into our business.
The biodiversity risk and opportunity assessment tool was developed by the Biodiversity Partnership to help our companies identify, assess and address risks arising from their impacts and dependencies on biodiversity and ecosystems in and around their leaf-growing operations.
By the end of 2010, all our tobacco leaf growing operations had completed assessments and initiatives are now in place to address the issues identified.
We make sure that the assessments and the actions taken encourage cooperation with local stakeholders and don't just focus on tobacco. Collaboration with the people living and working in the agricultural landscapes or organisations like local NGOs is often required for these initiatives.
Examples of initiatives include replanting trees to address water supply issues in a watershed catchment of the Indonesian island of Lombok; farmers in Uzbekistan being helped to improve soil management through green manuring and crop rotation; and a Ugandan project to restore and manage forest and freshwater health.
In 2011, we revised the biodiversity risk and opportunity assessment tool with our Biodiversity Partnership, with input from external experts. The revised version of the tool should give us a more consistent approach to the assessments across the globe.
It was field-tested in Vietnam in early 2012 and was rolled out to all our tobacco growing operations.
The assessment tool is freely available on the independent BROA website to encourage other tobacco and agricultural businesses to adopt a similar approach.

Kim Kardashian West baffled by naked pictures outrage
Kim Kardashian West is "baffled" by outrage over her naked pictures.
The35-year-old singer - who often shares racy images on her Instagram page - could not believe the uproar one shot, which saw her pose completely naked with two black bars protecting her modesty, caused earlier this year.
She said: "I truly was baffled when people still cared. They have seen me naked 500 times. The censor bar literally was probably more covered than a bikini. I could not grasp how people were so outraged."
And Kim - who has daughter North, two and six-month-old son Saint with husband Kanye West - encouraged people to avoid her posts if they don't like them.
Speaking to Kara Swisher on Recode Decode, she said: "My personality has never been, 'I'm such a feminist and follow me and be naked!' If you are conservative and that's how you are comfortable, more power to you. I respect you. You don't have to look at what I do.
"If I like the photo, and I'm into it, I'll post it...I just think it looks good. I'm really not trying to cause a reaction.
"I have such a thick skin. I've been in the business for a longtime, and there's always been a lot of haters in the work that I do. People used to always say, 'Don't read the magazines. Don't pay attention,' and it was so hard. I used to say I didn't but I really still cared. I'm at a point where I really don't care so it doesn't affect me."
Despite making her name on a reality TV show, Kim insisted she is much more private these days.
She said: "Pre-marriage, pre-babies, the answer would have been everything was shareable. After, I would say I keep a good 30 percent to myself."
