Ecology Auto Parts – Drivers Disregard for Road Safety

I was very disturbed about what happened to me on the freeway this morning and I need to file a formal complaint.

This morning on the 5 FWY North in the Burbank area between Magnolia and Burbank Blvd one of your trucks with trailer license starting with 4AB came up behind my car within 1-2 ft and then swerved into the second lane and then cut in front of me 1-2 ft. This occurred around the 10am time.

I want confirmation that this sort of driving is not tolerated by any employee of Ecology. And that your company is on notice that if this ever happens again I will call the Highway Patrol and file a complaint.

I expect a response to this incident.

In the past I have seen your trucks drop large objects from trailers and have been the victim of other fallen objects dropped on our highways. This disregard for driver safety will not be tolerated. You are now on notice.

Regards,
Victor

 

Here’s just one example of what Ecology is doing:

Corporate America out to screw you! I had one of their trucks drop a metal part on the freeway through the front windshield of my Mercedes. Broke the windshield and I got their number off of the truck!.
They said that “even though” I gave the exact time and location, they could not pinpoint a truck at that location and time????  They keep no records of routes or ledgers???? They will not pay me!!!!
Frickin crooks!!!  BOYCOTT such a disshonest company.

Black Friday Mayhem Pepper Spray Incident @walmart

Update: Apparently the woman who used the pepper spray has been indentified and the investigation of the victims continues. Apparently her using the pepper spray was not intentional. She got in used the pepper spray and then purchased her XBox and left the store. But security video cameras helped to catch who it was.

20 people had to be treated for pepper spray injuries when a woman at the Walmart in Porter Ranch.

Authorities are investigating the video surveillance as the woman escaped.

There’s a video of the crowds gathering

Go in for what you need and get out. That is the best advice for dealing with large crowds and pushing and shoving. I have made a decision to not participate in the Black Friday sale today, as there are just too many people running around the stores.

Digital Monday or Digital Weekend starts today and should offer some pretty amazing deals.

This video was taken at the Walmart in Porter Ranch, CA on November 24th, 2011 during the store’s Black Friday sales.

What you’re seeing is a clip taken of a group of shoppers ripping and tearing at each other and a kiosk to get their hands on discounted Xbox 360 games. During the mayhem, one woman thought she was going to be robbed, so she pulled out her pepper spray and blasted the crowd. From my understanding another girl was shot directly in the face with the spray.

You can see the Security guards escorting the girl in a white shirt away from the area at the end of the video.

All this for a few video games….

This video was shot by Melissa Sampson.

AT&T and T-Mobile Merger Called Off?

AT&T and T-Mobile parent Deutsche Telekom AG responded Thursday morning by pulling their application for merger.
AT&T has set aside $4 billion for what is now the likelihood that the merger will in fact will be blocked by the FCC and other regulators.
Consumers should rejoice as this is a huge win for customers, who until recently were faced with less competition in the marketplace for mobile communications.
Is the withdrawn application for merger temporary?
The $39 billion deal is sure to come up again.

iPhone iOS Photo Album Feature Request

iPhone Camera Roll Feature Request:

Wouldn’t it be cool if you could select multiple pictures from your iPhone Camera Roll and copy them to an email or email them from the camera roll?

Maybe someone has already done this, or maybe there is already a way to do this, but I have not been able to find this.

Voxer® is a Walkie Talkie application for smartphones
Review: So far it took less than 5 minutes to setup an account on two phones and start to use it. It does seem to be hit and miss if it is running or not and if the push to talk is working, but does seem to record the messages which the other user can then play back. All in all a very cool app and one to keep handy. I can see this working great with foursquare or yelp.
