How can I place an order with Dolphin Music?
There are a number of ways of placing an order with Dolphin Music. If you are online and have an e-mail address then the easiest and most convenient way for you to do this is online through our website.
First of all you need to create a user account. This is a standard procedure involving creating a password and putting in some details about your addresses. Once you have done this its is a very simple step by step procedure of finding the products you want and adding them to your basket. Once you have all the items you need you proceed to the checkout and go through the steps of choosing a delivery address and then a payment method.
Before you finally submit payment or choose your payment method you are asked to review your order to make sure you have ordered the correct goods. You can still at this stage remove items from your basket and search for further items to add to your basket.
Once the order is placed you will receive emails confirming the order and also delivery eta's.
You can also order though Dolphin Music by calling us on 08708 409060 and placing the order over the telephone. You will need your billing address details, delivery address details if different (both including postcodes) and your payment method details. You will be asked for some personal information and then guided through the very simple procedure by a member of staff. It basically involves the sales staff going through the above procedure.
If your order is especially time sensitive then we would suggest you call us to check on availability of the items and to clarify when exactly your order will be sent and how.
If you are an educational establishment you can also order through us by merely faxing a Purchase Order to 0709 231 5633. Please note that this is only applicable to educational establishments in the United Kingdom. Educational sstablishments outside of the UK are still welcome to order and we will always attempt to provide a discount for them but the order would need to be paid for before the goods could be sent by one of the listed payment methods.
How do I set up a return and what governs your returns policy?
Setting up a return.....
Log in to your account on our website. Go to the My Account section. When in this section go to the Returns Tab under which it takes you through a step by step process for setting up a return.
Before you do this please ensure you have any relevant serial numbers. Please also ensure that you select the most accurate reason for needing to return the item. This could completely alter the way your return is handled and it's eventual authorisation so it is very important.
Once you have set up the return putting as full as a description of the problems or reason for return as possible you will receive confirmation that you return has been set up. In certain circumstances you may also receive an automated email advising you of what you need to do next. If not then we will email you shortly with further information or instructions so please ensure you check your email regularly and have [email protected] added to your email safe list!
If you have any problems with any of the above then either email [email protected] or call 08708 409060 and ask for Returns. However, the best way to organise a return is on-line!
Below are laid out some details of what rules and regulations we work within when dealing with your return. Please note that below is basically a summary of your statutory rights as outlined by the Distance Selling Regulations and the Sales of Goods Act. There are links to both pieces of legislation below as well as links to some other organisations such as the Office Of Fair Trade, Citizens Advice and Trading Standards. If you have any queries or questions about the information laid out below then please contact them to discuss.
http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2000/20002334.htm - The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000

Free advice from:
What is your returns 'policy' and procedure?
Please note that what follows is a summary of the above legislation and is in no way designed to be a complete or exhaustive set of rules and regulations. That is why we have included the above details so that you can get these if you need them.
Customers have 14 calendar days starting the day they received their products to register their request to return an item or items under 'cooling off' legislation.
Goods should be returned to Dolphin Music with their original packaging. Dolphin Music will not be held responsible for any damages incurred in returning goods to us. The condition of the goods will remain the customer's responsibility until goods have been booked in and assessed by Dolphin Music.
Any return labels should not be placed directly on the item packaging. Please wrap any items to be returned in a protective layer and place any labels on this outer packaging.
Certain Items are illegible from being able to be returned under 'cooling off' period legislation namely:
- All microphones, any in-ear earphones, or in-ear monitors, and any other items that touch your mouth, your nose, or your inner ear cannot be returned for refund under 'cooling off' period legislation once opened due to our health and safety policy.
- Goods ordered specifically to meet a customer's requirements cannot be returned under the 'cooling off' period legislation, for example, VocalBooth products or a bespoke computer system.
- Software, media, sample CD's and any other copyrighted goods cannot be returned for refund under the 'cooling off' period legislation. If available please utilize online trial periods before purchasing your order.
- Hardware and software bundled products (such as NI Guitar Rig - Kontrol Edition, Traktor Scratch or Digidesign products) can not be returned under the 'cooling off' period legislation . If available please utilize online trial periods before purchasing your order.
If a product develops a fault within 30 days of receipt then a customer can request either:
The return of the product for a refund
The repair of the product
The replacement of the product
Or a reasonable amount of compensation (less than the cost of repair or replacement – at our discretion)
However, which we would opt for depends on the cost of doing each of these actions and we can decline a specific course of action based on cost.
Whichever remedy we chose would be without significant inconvenience to the customer and would be taken in to consideration.
If neither repair or replacement is realistically possible customer can request a partial or full refund. A full refund may not be reasonable if the customer has received some benefit from the unit before the problem appeared and the refund given would be in proportion to the amount of use they had from the unit before the problem occurred.
If faulty items are returned to us with missing parts/items/accessories, significant or cosmetic damage or unreasonable wear we reserve the right to repair the product under the manufacturers warranty and return it to you the customer, rather than issue a replacement or credit note.
After a customer has had an item for 30 days we will always look to get it repaired as long as this is without significant inconvenience to the customer. We would look for all repairs to be competed within 21 days of receipt as a guideline.
If a customer orders outside of the United Kingdom, Dolphin Music will cover or reimburse postage costs back to the United Kingdom should a product develop a fault in the first 30 days. After 30 days of purchase the customer would be required to arrange or pay for the return of a product to us or would be advised to seek manufacturer support in their native or local state.
Should a product fail after or outside of its warranty has expired, the customer would be required to seek support from the manufacturer or supplier. In cases where this is not possible Dolphin will at its discretion charge an administration fee of £10 plus 20% of the initial repair cost to the product. Customers will also be required to cover any carriage charges.
All of these regulations relate to Consumers - these are cited as people who are "buying for purposes not related to their trade, business or profession" and these regulations are not open to non consumers.
If a product is bought for use in a business environment, been bought for use as part of someone's work then this needs to be pursued through normal business to business sale of goods contract disputes.
Consumers can not expect us to provide redress if they have misused the products - through improper use, incompatible accessories etc
Please note that in the event of cancellation under the cooling off period you the consumer is responsible for the cost of returning the goods to us at their own expense. If you ask us to collect the goods then we can collect the cost of doing so from you, the consumer. If however, cancellation is a result of products being faulty then this does not apply.
Once notification of cancellation has been received then ownership of the goods passes back to the supplier. The consumer does however still have responsibility to ensure that the goods can be returned to us to be sold as new. This means that consumers have an obligation to get the goods back to us in as new condition.
Please once again note that this list is by no means exhaustive or complete – there may be other circumstances under the regulations which prevent you from returning the goods you are ordering from us. We strongly suggest that you contact either ourselves or one of the regulatory bodies to confirm your position before purchase if you are in any way concerned.
Exclusion of Expressed or Implied Warranties
Whilst we take the utmost care to ensure complete compatibility between hardware and software products and endeavour to configure all equipment to the customers requirements, due to the frequent changes and continual upgrading of software and associated drivers we are unable to guarantee compatibility between the two. Should however, a compatibility issue arise we will endeavour to solve the problem, but in the event that we are unable to do so we cannot accept any liability for consequential loss.
What should I do if my order is missing a part or parts?
Please see the FAQ above entitled "What do I need to do if an order I have received is damaged or one of the items on the delivery note does not appear to have arrived with me or is not what I have ordered?
There are also a lot of other bits of information with regard to our returns policy and what happens below. Please make sure you look through these below as they are very important.
Collections: Please note that even if we arrange and pay for the collection of your goods it is you, the customer, who is reponsibile for making sure they are packaged sufficiently and safely to get to their destination. If goods arrive with any marks, damage or faults with them that were not reported to us before they were shipped then you will be held liable for the cost of fixing or repairing these problems.
How much will delivery cost?
Dolphin offers FREE standard UK mainland delivery on all orders over £99 and below 32kg (some out-of-area exceptions apply). For full details of our delivery charges, including heavy items and for outside of the UK mainland, please see our shipping map.
Please note that when sending to some countries, customers will be charged an import fee and there may be other associated charges from the carrier for this. These charges are solely the responsbility of the receiver and we, as Dolphin Music accept no liability for these charges. We are unable to advise on these charges before shipping and it is entirely the responsbility of the receiver to make sure they know how much the charge is and that they can cover it. If packages are returned to us as a result of these charges being unpaid then the full cost of shipment out and back to us will be deducted from any refund to our customers.
If you have any shipping queries then please contact us.
How soon will you ship something that I buy?
If the product you require is in stock and the order is placed before our cut off then your product will be shipped out that day. In some circumstances the products will need to be specially ordered or shipped directly from a supplier. If this is the case then it may take an extra day or two to arrive. If it is going to take any longer than that then we will do our best to contact you with as precise an estimated time of arrival as possible.
We are working hard to get things out to you promptly and at the lowest possible price.
We will do our best to keep you informed. If you would like to know about availability before ordering, the only way is to e-mail or call us on 0870 840 9060. Our service and sales team will answer your enquiry as soon as they can.
VocalBooth orders
Custom made VocalBooths do not fall under the normal Dolphin Music return/exchange policy; as they are a bespoke made product to the clients specification. We do not offer any returns or exchanges for the VocalBooth range, just a one year warranty.
We do not recommend our VocalBooth product range in residential buildings, unless it is on the ground floor. VocalBooths are very heavy and range in weight depending upon model. If you do wish to install a VocalBooth on e 1st or 2nd floor of a residential property, please check with a structure engineer whether the property needs extra structural support. Please note; although commercial buildings normally have extra support in place, you must check with the on-site management prior to ordering a VocalBooth product.
What do I do if I'm not satisfied with the service from Dolphin Music?
Please tell us. Contact us by email or by calling us on 0870 840 9060.
What do I need to do if an order I have received is damaged or one of the items on the delivery note does not appear to have arrived with me or is not what I have ordered?
If a delivery that you are receiving appears to have significant external damage to it we would suggest that you refuse delivery from the courier. If it appears to have some slight damage we would recommend that you accept delivery and then proceed to check the goods for damage or problems.
If any of the goods are damaged then you would need to follow our returns procedure - see the relevant Returns section for how to do this.
If it appears that you are missing goods then please contact us via email at [email protected] or by telephone on 08708 409060. Please make a note of the initials of the person who packaged your order that appears on the delivery note that should have come with the delivery before contacting us. This is not compulsory but would be a great help to us.
If it appears that you have been sent the wrong items then please also follow the above procedure. However, we would strongly recommend that you open all of your packages before contacting us - we often package goods in other manufacturers boxes to save on costs so it's well worth checking on.
What is the status of the contract I have with Dolphin Music and how can this be altered?
When you place an order with us, you are making an offer to buy goods. We will send you an e-mail to confirm that we have received your order.
In the unlikely event that the goods are no longer available, or that we have made a pricing mistake, we will advise you of this as soon as possible. We would then look to supply you with an alternative product or the product that has superceded the product ordered at no extra cost to yourself. However, this will not always be possible and in some cases this may lead to the cancellation of the contract.
If the goods are not available, we may supply you with substitute goods. If you decide not to accept the substitute goods, you will not have to pay to return them to us. We would only do this with certain goods i.e. such as supplying a longer cable than ordered if none of the correct length available.
Where do you deliver to and how does it get sent?
With our wide variety of shipping options available we can now ship almost anywhere in the world. If the country you require is not listed on the drop down menu on the site then please email us at [email protected] and we can let you know what we can do.
For more detailed info on our shipping protocols and options then check out the 'How can you ship my order?' section.
Please note that we can only send to a residential or business address - we can NOT send to BFPO addresses or toher Post Boxes as all our deliveries need to be signed for.

Billy Crystal and Bette Midler star as Artie and Diane -- an old-school grandfather and his people-pleasing wife, who babysit for their three decidedly 21st century grandchildren while the kids' type-A parents (played by Marisa Tomei and Tom Everett Scott) are away for work. Artie's traditional ideas go toe-to-toe with the kids' (and their parents') cutting-edge, multitasking ways, but this modern family comes to learn that love, understanding, and an openness to trying new and old things, will always keep a family together. Andy Fickman directs from a script by Lisa Addario and Joe Syracuse. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, Rovi

Council of Europe's Anti-Racism Commission publishes conclusions on the implementation of its priority recommendations in respect of Greece
Strasbourg, 25.09.2012 – The European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) today published conclusions on the implementation of three priority recommendations made in its country report on Greece which had been released in 2009.
As part of the fourth round of ECRI's monitoring work, a new process of interim follow-up has been introduced with respect to up to three recommendations made in each of ECRI's country reports. Two years following the publication of each report, ECRI addresses a communication to the Government concerned asking what has been done in connection with the recommendations for which priority follow-up was requested.
On the basis of the response from the Government and information gathered from other sources, ECRI draws up its conclusions on the way in which its recommendations have been followed up. These conclusions concern only the priority recommendations and do not aim at providing a comprehensive analysis of all developments in the fight against racism and intolerance in the State concerned.
Through the new interim follow-up procedure, ECRI seeks to assist Council of Europe member States in fine-tuning their response to the recommendations made in its country reports.
The conclusions, including the country report, are available here.
ECRI is a human rights body of the Council of Europe, composed of independent experts, which monitors problems of racism, discrimination on grounds of ethnic origin, colour, citizenship, religion and language (racial discrimination) , as well as xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance, prepares reports and issues recommendations to member States.

"I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together" — The Beatles
Once one has learned to kindle the feeling of metta towards oneself, the next step is to extend it to others. The extension of metta hinges on a shift in the sense of identity, on expanding the sense of identity beyond its ordinary confines and learning to identify with others. The shift is purely psychological in method, entirely free from theological and metaphysical postulates, such as that of a universal self immanent in all beings. Instead, it proceeds from a simple, straightforward course of reflection which enables us to share the subjectivity of others and experience the world (at least imaginatively) from the standpoint of their own inwardness. The procedure starts with oneself. If we look into our own mind, we find that the basic urge of our being is the wish to be happy and free from suffering. Now, as soon as we see this in ourselves, we can immediately understand that all living beings share the same basic wish. All want to be well, happy, and secure. To develop metta towards others, what is to be done is to imaginatively share their own innate wish for happiness. We use our own desire for happiness as the key, experience this desire as the basic urge of others, then come back to our own position and extend to them the wish that they may achieve their ultimate objective, that they may be well and happy.
Bhikkhu Bodhi
http://www.accesstoinsight.org/lib/auth ... toend.html
It cannot be stressed enough the importance of identifying oneself with others. Some people tend to think that they are the only existing person in the world and that another being is just "someone out there" — someone who doesn't have feelings and therefore we can hurt them if we so desire. But if a person reflects deep enough he will see that every living being is just like him.
Every being is just like you. And me. They all have their own body and mind. They all have five aggregates and six senses. They all have their joy and sorrow, their successes and failures, their mistakes and their good virtues, they are all subject to the suffering of samsara and they all experience the pleasure of the human realm, which after all is one of the fortunate realms. They all have the same physical organs and the same mental faculties. They all sleep like you do, eat like you do, go to the toilet like you do. We all have roughly the same daily programme and face the same challenges. We all want to be liked by others and most of us care for one another. I can continue listing the things we share and are common to all of us, but I think you get the point I'm trying to make.
The point I'm trying to make is that you are the centre of the Universe. And so is every other living being. Every being is the centre of their own Universe.
You might be walking down a street. You clearly perceive how you stand at the centre of the Universe and you see many other beings walking past you. They count as well. We are all Universes walking past each other.
I recently had a stuffy nose, for about a week. Shortly after, my mum caught it too. I said "Mum, maybe I've transmitted it to you." And she said something to the effect of "I'd rather have a stuffy nose than see you have a stuffy nose". I thought that's not fully compassionate, you count too, mum! But she continued "Do you know how many times I've wished that I suffered if that could take away your suffering." Sounds Mahayana to me. And that may sound like compassion, and it kind of is, but.
But you count too. As Ajahn Brahm often says "It's not about you, it's not about me — it's about us!"
A little exercise: imagine you're posting a post on a forum like this one. There's a poster above you and there's a poster below you. Now imagine you are the poster below you and this other guy or girl above him/her (you) is just someone else. Now that's identifying oneself with others in practice. And you can do that in real life too! Imagine you are your boss and your boss is you. Would you ever despise your boss for giving you a hard time?
By identifying yourself with others you will care more about them. You will never think of hurting them. How can you? Would you hurt yourself?
Look into a tall mirror. Is that another being there or is that you? See all other beings as a mirror of you.
I'm not perfect myself but I'm trying to try my best.

Subscribe to Menopause email updates.
Working with your doctor
If you have concerns about symptoms and treatments related to menopause, it is important for you to be comfortable talking with your doctor. You should be able to share honestly and get clear answers to your questions. How to talk to your doctor or nurse (PDF, 193 KB) can help. You might also want to print out our Menopause symptom tracker (PDF, 166 KB) for recording symptoms that you can discuss at your next appointment. If you don't feel comfortable with your doctor, you can consider switching or getting a second opinion. You can learn more in How to get a second opinion (PDF, 262 KB). Remember, too, that your decision about treatment options is never final. Your needs may change, and so might menopause treatments.
Most women do not need treatment of menopausal symptoms. Some women find that their symptoms go away by themselves, and some women just don't find the symptoms very uncomfortable. But if you are bothered by symptoms, there are many ways to deal with them, including medications and lifestyle changes. Read here about how to deal with specific symptoms and what medication options are available. If you're interested in learning more about menopausal hormone therapy (formerly called hormone replacement therapy) and natural alternatives, you can jump to those sections.
You may find it hard to decide about treatment options like menopausal hormone therapy because of the possible side effects. Talk to your doctor about the possible risks and benefits so you can choose what's best for you. No one treatment is right for all women.
When you talk about treatment options with your doctor, discuss issues like:
Below are some symptoms that women may have around the time of menopause and tips for dealing with them.

Just wanted to start a thread showing my progress. I've gotten quite a few other things done but I am close to finishing my knees and wanted to post pics. I've put several armor kits together in the 501st but never built armor from scratch...
So be gentle and offer advice on any changes if you see some that need to be made. That being said, I can already see where I need to make some changes with these but I thought it was a decent first shot.
Materials used:
PVC Pipe
ABS for the dart holder and detail
Total cost of these ran less than $10 per knee to make but has taken me about 25 hours so far in work... I have a new found respect for those guys who produce this stuff... Used the WoF Templates for the basic design.

It's only Wednesday, but already the week of the 23 May 2011 is shaping up to be one of the biggest in Microsoft's history. Based on early indications, it could also be one of the best.
Let's run through the events. Late on Monday night Microsoft CEO let slip what many had hoped: that Windows 8 will be launched next year. "We're obviously hard at work on the next version of Windows'" he explained. "As we progress through the year, you ought to hear a lot about Windows 8." A Microsoft spokesperson subsequently told ZSNet Ballmer misspoke, saying "to date, we have yet to formally announce any timing or naming for the next version of Windows" but the cat is out the bag.
Just 24 hours later Ballmer was at it again. This time revealing the details of Mango, the long-awaited update for Windows Phone 7.
The update will bring over 500 new features to the currently slick, but limited platform. Chief amongst them: multi-tasking, contact grouping, threaded emails, core integration of Twitter and LinkedIn, merged messages across IM, email, Facebook and more, smart location awareness in apps and a browser overhaul with the inclusion of IE9. Microsoft will call the update Windows Phone 7.1, but in all honesty it should have been 7.0. Regardless, our first impressions of Windows Phone 7 Mango can be found here.
What both these updates show, however, is Microsoft getting back on track. Windows 8 will see Microsoft make the long awaited move into ARM compatibility, opening up the platform to a far greater array of hardware formats. This is something the leaked Windows 8 App Store proves is a primary aim. Meanwhile Windows Phone 7.1 finally gives Microsoft a credible mobile platform, something it should never have been without.
Both these announcements are also bolstered by huge Microsoft deals. The industry rocking Nokia agreement gives Microsoft not only a guaranteed hardware partner, but also a potentially groomed takeover target. Its bank busting $8.5bn purchase of Skype gives it a common communication platform and also drags with it Skype's 170m users. That's not a bad way to bolster your mobile platform, especially when the company's key product - Windows - is set to bridge the gap between desktop and mobile and carries just under 90% of the world's PC users.
Then again, as the saying goes, you can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs...

Tuff Footage
Not sure what the house cat did this morning? Maybe it's because you're lacking a hard-hitting journalist in your family.
If you want to keep up with the goings-ons of the family pets, you'll need to hire a proper videographer (preferably a reporter) with real world experience and an education in all the idiosyncrasies and technicalities of film and camera work.

Well, after what seems like endless hours of cutting and shaping and bondo-ing and sanding and sanding, here they are. I just finished the first paintjob, and they still need weathering. Let me know what you think.
Just added the templates I used to build these. They should all print on 8.5"x11" paper. Keep in mind that these are very rough and will need a lot of work. But its a good starting point, I hope.
I started With curved halves of sintra that fit around my arm and built everything on top of those.
Here are some construction pics to show how I put them together. Please note that these are rough templates and should be adjusted as needed to fit your arms. There were also many small areas that I filled with bondo instead of trying to cut small pieces of plastic for.
I epoxied a hinge down the one side and the other side closes with magnets available at http://amazingmagnets.com/products.asp?ID=1000-10-1400 . I used P125AH.
Feel free to PM me with any questions you may have.


text: 1. Absurd lack of consistency and lack of decisiveness. His endless lineup changes and arbitrary DNP's were idiotic and probably cost him a lot of respect by his team. 2. No guts in his relations with the vets. Felt he had to placate them regarding minutes and starter/bench status, and seemed to agonize over whether to bench Rip or AI. Also seemed to think that playing the vets (e.g., Sheed, Dice and Tay during the regular season, and an injured and wholly ineffective Tay in the playoffs) was the "safest" way to deflect criticism in a losing season. 3. Terrible end of game management in regular season games, as Tayshawn and others pointed out repeatedly in this forum. 4. Surprisingly, he exudes very little intelligence about the game during interviews. That is not just a matter of being inarticulate, because a person can be knowledgeable and smart without being articulate. It seems to go deeper than that.

Lanai History
Uninhabited until the 1500's, Lanai was always a place of mystery even to Native Hawaiians. Legends tell the story of a challenge between kahuna (priests) that scorched the earth of Keahiakawelo (Garden of the Gods), explaining some of the otherworldly terrain of the island.
Lanai was a sovereign land until King Kamehameha I united the Hawaiian islands into one royal monarchy in 1810. The ruins of Kamehameha's favorite summer fishing retreat can still be seen in South Lanai. Called Kaunolu, this sacred spot and fishing village has been registered as a National Historic Landmark. Home to Halulu heiau (religious temple) you can also find ancient petroglyphs carved into the stones here. This treasured cultural site can only be accessed by 4-wheel drive.
After contact with the west, Lanai was eventually purchased and converted into a cattle ranch. The Four Seasons Lanai, The Lodge at Koele now resides in the area that was once the center of the island's ranching operations. As a former manager of this ranch, George Munro made an indelible mark on the landscape by planting the first of what became the island's many Cook pine trees. The Munro Trail, named after Munro, leads to Lanaihale, Lanai's highest point.
Later, under the leadership of James Dole, Lanai became the world's foremost grower and exporter of pineapples – a title the former "Pineapple Isle," held for most of the 20th century. As the cost of business rose, pineapple production was moved overseas, but Dole's legacy lives on today. Stay at the Hotel Lanai, a hotel Dole built for managers and VIPs who visited the island. This historic inn is conveniently located just above Dole Park in Lanai City.
Throughout its history, man's impact on the island has been minimal. There are now two lavish resorts here yet only a scant 30 miles of paved road. The timeless landscape is largely as it was, offering a glimpse into the Lanai of another time, on an island unlike any other in Hawaii.

As Sabon continues its efforts to be environmentally conscious in all parts of our business, we're proud to introduce a new program that'll help you reduce your carbon footprint and save money on your favorite Sabon products.
When you bring in an empty Sabon bottle, jar, or other container that was once filled with our all-natural products, you'll receive 10% of the same product that was in the Sabon container you returned.
For example, return an empty vanilla body scrub jar for recycling and you'll receive 10% off a new body scrub jar of the same size. The discount is valid on Sabon full line of products. It doesn't matter what you're out of, we'll accept the empty container and give you 10% off a replacement product.
Here's even better news: This discount is valid for as many Sabon containers you want to return each visit – you'll receive 10% off the same item for each bottle brought in. Bring in 10 empty containers, save 10% on 10 new Sabon products. That's like scoring a full-size product absolutely free!
We're very excited for this new policy – yep, it's a policy, not just a promotion – because we're always thinking of ways to enhance our eco-friendly efforts and provide our customers with special savings.
Some other ways we honor our commitment to this beautiful planet we live on include:
- Sourcing our cardboard and glass from recycled materials from Israel.
- Recycling cardboard and glass in all our stores. The New York Sanitation Department picks up our recyclables twice a week.
- Shipping products from our headquarters in Israel to New York City strictly by sea. Sabon never sends shipments via air.
And we're always looking for additional ways to cut back on waste and make this world a better place. If you have any ideas on how we can further our green efforts, leave a comment below or e-mail us directly at firstname.lastname@example.com. We read every message we receive so we can be the best Sabon we can be for our customers.
We look forward to seeing you in a Sabon Boutique soon. Don't forget to bring in your empty jar, bottle, or other container so you can receive 10% off a replacement product today.

Hi Miranda,
Unfortunately, this offer is only available in our stores. The reason being, sending back the bottles from the West coast would somewhat defeat the purpose of our green efforts. the shipping of empty bottles across far distances causes more pollution (through transportation) than we intend to save with our recycling efforts. We hope to meet you in the West coast soon. Thank you for your patience!
Love Sabon

Bummer! I was about to ask this question too. I'm in upstate New York and wondered if I could send in empty bottles and jars. The distance isn't as far as the West Coast.

I live in Arizona i have my container for the green valley diffuser when will you offer refills for that oil? when i called your store in schaumburg i was told there was no refill i would have to purchase the entire kit again. Very dissapointing.
Posted by | Oct 9, 2012 10:46:11 AM | 5 Likes
Hi Elaine,
Bring all the bottles you have! Remember, one empty diffuser bottle will get you 10% Off a new Aroma Diffuser. Two empty Bottles wil get you 10% Off a second new Aroma Diffuser. We hope to see you soon!
Nora -- We apologise for your disapointment. The refills are something we recently stopped carrying, as it was also distributed in a glass container, and the price was very close to the cost of purchasing a new Aroma.
We are working our tactics on being more environmentally friendly all the time. We are welcome and happy to hear your suggestions. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
Warmest regards,
Posted by | Oct 12, 2012 11:09:59 AM | 0 Likes
I love, love, love this idea! However, why can't the 10% apply to any glass recyclable product? The customer going to the extra length to bring the bottle to the store but MUST buy the same product doesn't make sense to me. The glass is still being recycled in the end...
Also, when making a purchase online can you go to the store to get discount adjustment the 10% off the purchased bottles showing the receipt?
Posted by | Oct 15, 2012 10:22:15 AM | 0 Likes
Thank you for your questions!
The concept we came up with states that the recycled jar/bottle must be the same product as the new one being discounted. One reason being that eventually we hope to refill the bottles for our customers on site! Please don't forget that the choice of fragrance never has to be the same, which leaves you room to experience variety!
The recycling promotion applies to the stores only. We hold many promotions online that are not applicable in the stores. This one specifically being exclusive to the stores.
Hope this helps!

Sabon is very mindful and aware of our Environment and the importance of making every effort to increase that awareness. We constantly strive to improve on a daily basis. :)
That being said, we are happy that you are happy!

Hello everyone,
I'm Head of Studies at a language academy and I need to find some good Technical English books (leveled: pre-intermediate, intermediate, and upper intermediate) for some Engineering-focused InCompany classes.
I'm familiar with a lot of the resources out there, but it seems to be more complicated to find technical books split into levels.
I've found ¨Tech Talk¨ from Oxford University Press, but they have no upper intermediate level and I'm not even sure if it's still in stock.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I have to order some books ASAP!

What is gastric bypass?
Gastric bypass is a surgery that can help adults and some adolescents who are very obese (morbidly obese) lose weight. It involves attaching the stomach directly to the middle of the small intestine. This reduces the amount of calories and nutrients that are absorbed by the body.
Gastric bypass surgery usually includes a stomach stapling procedure. Stomach stapling reduces the size of your stomach and the amount of food you can eat at one time.
Gastric bypass has serious risks but the benefits can be significant. Benefits include long-term weight-loss and resolution of serious diseases associated with obesity, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol.
Gastric bypass is only one part of a complete treatment plan. Plans also include a lifelong commitment to healthy dietary and exercise habits, vitamin supplementation, and regular follow-up care. You may have less invasive treatment options with less risk of complications. Ask your doctor about all your treatment options and consider getting a second opinion before having gastric bypass.
Types of gastric bypass
Gastric bypass is a malabsorptive procedure. This means that it helps you lose weight by changing the normal process of digestion. Specific gastric bypass procedures include:
Biliopancreatic diversion with a duodenal switch (BPD-DS, duodenal switch) involves removing part of the stomach and using staples to create a smaller tube-shaped stomach (vertical sleeve gastrectomy). In another surgery, the stomach is attached to the middle of the small intestine. This bypasses a large part of the small intestine and reducing the amount of calories and nutrients absorbed into the body.
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) involves stapling the stomach to create a small pouch. The smaller stomach is attached directly to the middle of the small intestine. This allows food to bypass much of the stomach and the first section of the small intestine. It limits the amount of food that you can eat and reduces the amount of calories and nutrients that are absorbed into the body.

I have just been over the past perfect with reasonably advanced students.
The past perfect is used to sequence 2 past actions - something in the past that occurs before another event/action in the past. (right?)
In class we were going through a text, changing verb forms where needed. We came across the correct sentence:
His wife retrieved it from the rubbish bin, and soon afterwards it was accepted for an award.
One of my students then asked why we would not use the past perfect in this case, since the sentence talks about 2 past events (in sequence).
His wife had retrieved it from the rubbish bin, and soon afterwards it had been accepted for an award.
This one is bugging me- maybe the answer is very straight-forward, but I'm not having much luck figuring it out!
Could you please try to shed some light on this for me?
Thank you very much and I look forward to hearing back.

The Canisius softball team split a non-league doubleheader at Mount St. Mary's on Saturday, taking game one by the score of 6-0 before falling in the nightcap by a 4-3 count in 10 innings. The Golden Griffins are now 12-9 on the year.
In game one, Canisius starter Jen Consaul went the distance and fanned seven for her eighth win of the season in circle. The junior from Chili, N.Y., now leads the team with 10 complete games and two shutout wins after she gave up four hits and walked just two. The Griffs scored twice in the top of the second when sophomore Marissa Miller and freshman Alexis Roman each drew bases-loaded walks to drive in the team's two runs of the frame. In the third, freshman Bethany DeMarco doubled to left field to drive in teammate Stephanie Pfentner. Canisius added three insurance runs in the top half of the fourth, with sophomore Robin Kennery and freshman Tori Nappo each driving in RBIs to help the Blue and Gold's cause.
In the game one win, Canisius posted six hits, with Kennery going 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI. DeMarco had a two-base hit in the win, as did junior Valorie Nappo. On the year, the Griffs have 31 doubles as a team, which leads the MAAC.
In the second game, Canisius trailed 2-0 after two innings, but scored two in the top of the third and then added a run in the fifth to take a 3-2 lead. Trailing 2-0, Kennery hit her second homer of the season with two outs in the frame that allowed teammate Michelle DelPrince to score as well. Canisius took a 3-2 lead on the power of an RBI-base hit by Kennery in the top half of the fifth. Mount St. Mary's (9-18) knotted the game at 3-3 in the sixth with two outs when Canisius dropped a fly ball in left field. The game would remain knotted at 3-3 until the bottom of the 10th inning when the Mountaineers scored the game-winning run off Consaul with a base hit to center. Consaul took the loss after Canisius starter Amanda Baun went nine innings and allowed three runs on four hits while striking out six and walking four.
The Griffs had just three hits in the second game, with Kennery recording two of those. She also knocked in three RBIs. DeMarco also had a hit in the game for the Blue and Gold while Roman was credited with a run scored.Canisius will head south to play a non-league twinbill at College of Charleston Tuesday, April 2. First pitch is set for 4 p.m.

The masked Muslim raider boarded the bus cleverly disguised behind her chador and awaiting an opportunity to sneak up behind the bus driver and say, "boo!" A Muslim family in the liberal city of Copenhagen was shocked when a bus driver refused to continue driving unless the mother who was wearing a traditional headscarf got off the bus. Houria Nouioua was told by the young bus driver that she could not travel on his bus because she was wearing a niqab- a traditional Muslim veil that covers the face. He said the rules of the bus company forbid anyone to ride on the bus if he or she was masked. The bus remained stationary for about 15 minutes as even passengers berated the bus driver for his insensitivity and irrational behavior.
The bus driver said he was told masks were forbidden and the woman wore a mask. I assume he also believes that criminals take their children with them when getting ready to hold up a bus.

The Acid Ocean – the Other Problem with CO2 Emission
The Royal Society has just issued a summary report on the effects of CO2 on the pH chemistry of seawater and aquatic organisms and ecosystems. In addition to its pivotal role in the atmosphere in the regulation of global climate, CO2 and its sister chemical species, HCO3– and CO32- comprise the carbonate buffer system which regulates the pH of seawater. The new report can be found here. Acidifying the ocean is particularly detrimental to organisms that secrete shell material made of CaCO3, such as coral reefs and a type of phytoplankton called coccolithophorids [Kleypas et al., 1999]. The ocean pH change will persist for thousands of years. Because the fossil fuel CO2 rise is faster than natural CO2 increases in the past, the ocean will be acidified to a much greater extent than has occurred naturally in at least the past 800,000 years [Caldeira and Wicket, 2003].
For those of you who look back on your freshman chemistry days with less than fondness, the acidity or pH of an aqueous solution is a measure of the concentration of H+ ions in the solution, with low pH meaning high H+ concentration. H+ ions are aggressive little guys, and too much H+ in water can burn the skin off your hand or make a coral limestone go fizz. The link between CO2 and H+ arises by the combination of CO2 and water, H2O, to form carbonic acid, H2CO3. An acid is a chemical species that releases H+ ions into solution, as does H2CO3 to form HCO3– and CO32-. Adding CO2 to water causes the pH to drop.
The pH of seawater is buffered by the chemistry of carbon, just as is the chemistry of blood and cellular fluids. The buffering action arises from the fact that the concentrations of the various carbon species are much higher than is the concentration of H+ ions. If some process tries to add or remove H+ ions, the amount of H+ ions required will be determined by the amount of the carbon species that have to be converted from one form to another. This will be an amount much higher than the actual change in H+ concentration itself.
Most of the carbon in seawater is in the form of HCO3–, while the concentrations of CO32- and dissolved CO2 are one and two orders of magnitude lower, respectively. The equilibrium reaction for CO2 chemistry in seawater that most cogently captures its behavior is
where I am using double equal signs as double arrows, denoting chemical equilibrium. Since this is a chemical equilibrium, Le Chatlier's principal states that a perturbation, by say the addition of CO2, will cause the equilibrium to shift in such a way as to minimize the perturbation. In this case, it moves to the right. The concentration of CO2 goes up, while the concentration of CO32- goes down. The concentration of HCO3– goes up a bit, but there is so much HCO3– that the relative change in HCO3– is smaller than the changes are for CO2 and CO32-. It works out in the end that CO2 and CO32- are very nearly inversely related to each other, as if CO2 times CO32- equaled a constant.
Coral reefs are built from limestone by the reaction Ca2+ + CO32- == CaCO3, where Ca is calcium. Acidifying the ocean decreases the concentration of CO32- ions, which by le Chatlier's principal shifts the equilibrium toward the left, tending to dissolve CaCO3. Note that this is a sort of counter-intuitive result, that adding CO2 should make reefs dissolve rather than pushing carbon into making more reefs. It's all because of those H+ ions.

By Chris Harris
Jack Wilshere will be "gutted" to sit out Saturday's game against Fulham - but he expects to be fresh for the biggest London derby of them all.
The Arsenal midfielder was sent off for two bookable offences at Manchester United last weekend, a decision described as harsh by Arsène Wenger and his opposite number, Sir Alex Ferguson.
Wilshere also feels he was hard done by but he is putting a positive spin on his dismissal with Tottenham's visit to Emirates Stadium just around the corner.
"I am gutted to miss Saturday after being out for so long, it's a disappointment to miss any game," said Wilshere. "But if I think about it another way, maybe it will be good for me to have a little break and come back for the Tottenham game.
"When you see it [the challenge that earned him a second yellow card] in slow motion, it looks like a bad tackle but honestly I didn't mean to go for him [Patrice Evra]. I just went for the ball.
"When he sent me off I was shocked but when I saw it after [on the TV], I can see why he sent me off."
In Wilshere's absence Arsenal will look to close the nine-point gap between themselves and United at the top of the table. Fulham took four points from last season's two Premier League encounters and Wilshere knows that has to change.
"The target is the same - we need to challenge for the Premier League," he said. "OK, we are a bit far behind now but we really need to step it up.
"We have dropped a few points and we can't afford to be dropping points now. We know we need the top four but if we can get anything more, then we push on every season. That's the aim.
"The aim at the beginning of every season is to challenge for the Premier League and win a trophy. It's no different this year."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Make Your Move Smoother
Make Your Move Smoother
by Attorney General Roy Cooper
Every year, millions of Americans pack up and change addresses. Many of those moves take place during the summer. Maybe you're even planning a move in the coming months.
Moving can be stressful even when everything goes according to plan. There are many reputable moving companies and a good mover can be a great help, but there are some that will try to take more than just your furniture for a ride.
We've all heard horror stories about moves gone wrong. The truck arrives at your new home, but the movers demand that you pay $2,000 more than you expected. Once the movers start carrying in furniture, you notice a new scratch on your kitchen table. Perhaps you start unpacking boxes only to find chipped glasses and broken dishes. Maybe some of your belongings never arrive at all.
To help your move go smoothly, research your choice of mover, communicate with the company about the move upfront, and know what your rights are if something goes wrong.
There are two basic types of moves and each is regulated differently. An
interstate move
is a move from one state to another and is regulated primarily by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). In an interstate move, your mover may provide you with an estimate of total charges, or a guaranteed total price.
intrastate move
takes place entirely within the borders of a single state. For example, you need to move from Asheville to Wilmington. The North Carolina Utilities Commission regulates movers within our state and sets the maximum rate levels that movers are allowed to charge. Within those approved levels, intrastate movers can offer lower rates, so shopping around may save you money. The cost of both interstate and intrastate moves are based on mileage, weight, the number of boxes the mover packs for you and any special services you need.
Whether you're moving across town, across North Carolina or across the country, keep the following tips in mind:
Check out the moving company.
Ask friends for recommendations. While most moving companies operate legitimately, some do not. If you have any doubt about a company's credentials, check them out before you do business.
interstate moves
, ask for the movers
Motor Carrier number and then check with the U.S. Department of Transportation
s Licensing and Insurance Division 1-888-368-7238 to make sure the mover is registered and insured.
intrastate moves
, ask the moving company for its North Carolina Utilities Commission Certificate number and then call the Utilities Commission at (919) 733-7766 to see if they have complaints on file against the company.
Get a written estimate of costs.
Make sure you understand the charges listed and what services are included. Keep in mind that an estimate is not a guarantee and that the actual move may wind up costing you more.
Take inventory.
Ask the movers to prepare a written inventory of your shipment, or write down your own inventory. It's a good idea to take pictures or video of antique or other valuable property prior to the move so you will be better able to prove any damage that occurs during the move.
Ask for a bill of lading.
This is a written contract that sets forth the terms and conditions of your move. Your mover is required to provide a bill of lading in all intrastate and interstate moves. Be sure to read it carefully and keep a copy until your move is finished and any disputes with your mover have been resolved.
Set dates.
Ask the mover to specify pick up and delivery dates in writing.
Know your liability.
Make sure you understand your moving company's policy for items that get lost or damaged in the course of your move.
Get satisfaction.
If there are problems with your move, let the company know about them. If necessary, you can also file a complaint with the proper regulating agency.
For complaints about
interstate moves,
you have nine months from the date of delivery to file a complaint with the
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
either online or by calling1-888-368-7238. Keep in mind that the FMCSA cannot resolve claims, so if you are not satisfied with the settlement offered by the mover, your recourse is to go to court. Some movers include clauses in their contracts that require you to go to mandatory arbitration before you can take action in court.
intrastate moves,
you can file a complaint with the NC Utilities Commission. Write to 4326 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-4326 or call 1-866-380-9816.
You can also file complaints about either type of move with my office by calling 1-877-5-NO-SCAM or file a complaint

What does "performance apparel" really mean? Mostly it means that it will "wick away moisture," but what does THAT mean? It means that it won't get waterlogged with the astonishing amount of perspiration your body produces while carrying out everyday activities. Seriously. Maybe you should get that looked at.

text: Thanks to ASOK for getting this kit out to me so quickly. Well, I have to admit that when I opened it the excitement was briefly stiffled when it began to occur to me how much work it's going to be to put these together and get them wearable...LOL! But after a little reflection I now see that it will be a lot of fun and will give me a lot of pride to get them finished. I'll post pics along the way!

Discussion in 'October 2006' started by roscoe36, Oct 22, 2006.
5:00pm myTV20 1130 WDFN AM Chat opens at 4:30 PM and will stay open through the Tigers game...
Looking for Carlos to have a great game.
Is this game on NBA TV or any other channel?
It's on Det 20 local. Not sure about other channels DLev. :(
Thx Roscoe. I don`t think it`s on League Pass either, the radio broadcast that is.
Box score Pistons vs. Nuggets More to come later, time permitting...
I don't mind this. It will force the coaching staff to make the team practice on defense.
I am HATING on Delfino's line...1-5? I hope there was a reason for that like 3 of them came at the end of each quarter.
Delfino. His shot is broke, I am tired of hearing excuses. Most of his shots were really long, 3 point range. He's lacking a pull up jumper which means he either drives and dishes or jacks a long one. Occasionally he finishes if the defense gives it to him. Kinda ironic, Greg Kelser and Eli Zaret beat him up in the postgame, and Blaha stood up for him, but George is a team spokesperson and goes a little overboard trying to keep it light. Will Blalock looked terrible out there. Completely overmatched (sic) by Earl Boykins.
The P's rebounded better, had a lot of blocks, but fewer steals. What stands out is Flips and Delfino's horrible shooting percentages. Delfino's shooting has been consistently suckacious. Flip was 3-13. Was he trying to show us his support for detroit by reppin the area code??
Delfino piece from Halftime YouTube - Delfino Feature Oct 22 2006
i'll say that delfino is in a shooting slump. i just think he refuses to take enough shots to get himself out of it. his shot looks good when he releases it. i think he looks to pass too much to be a good shooter right now. he's at a point in his career when shooting is an afterthought that's why not so many go in. he is usually shooting because he's sooooo wide open or the shot clock is running down. i think his shot will get better when he learns to pick his spots.
1-7...sorry but you gotta work that out in practice. And he's open for a reason lol.
Your in a shooting slump, so you shoot a bunch of 3's? Huh? Delfino, some advice, stop shooting, unless it's a bunny. You're starting to make me look bad.
Thanks Roscoe. It must suck to spend most of your salary on your buyout.
I'd make a highlight video but it's mostly the Nuggets scoring on fast breaks. The Pistons did not play well for the most part. I'm not sure what Flip is using these games for, but the starters are not looking very sharp except Nazr who is hustling around like the energizer bunny. Btw, Sheed got injured, came back in and then wasn't seen again. No idea what is wrong except it may be his GROIN.
What part again Roscoe?
You lost me.
They said on the radio that he was kicked in the groin (not a pull)... he was held back only as a precaution.
I'd like to know who specifically was not getting it done on defense... I know Blalock had it handed to him by lil Earl. I heard they were outscored by 18 pts off turnovers. On a good side Brahma won the battle with Mr. Max contract Kmart.
Separate names with a comma.
