  1. My friend told me that the home-fix outlet at Compass One was repossessed. He sent me a photo of the notice outside the unit. Was surprised that home-fix closed down. They are like everywhere and seems to be doing well.
  2. Manhattan Fish Market has been accused of denying a mother in Singapore a Mother’s Day promotion offer because the woman has no husband. According to a June 5 Facebook post by Mellissa Seah, the incident occurred at the Manhattan Fish Market outlet at Changi Airport Terminal 1. Seah wrote that she came across a promotion where mothers are entitled to a free Manhattan Fish ‘N Chips with every purchase of a main dish. Staff allegedly said, “Your family is not complete” Seah thought that this was a good deal and wanted to dine at Manhattan Fish Market with her mother. However, when Seah asked about the promotion, the eatery’s personnel allegedly told her that her mother did not qualify for it. The staff allegedly said, “You’re not entitled to this because your family is not complete,” and “The father is missing”. Seah clarified that her family is incomplete “not by choice”, but did not elaborate: Seah also wrote that it was “disappointing that a brand like MFM still has the mindset that a Complete Family Unit is one that is made up of Father, Mother and Child”. She ended her post by saying that she is proud to be part of an incomplete family, and she will never patronise Manhattan Fish Market again.

  6. Some sharing. These days, I have seen that people are bored and often get himself/herself into trouble of some sorts. Is it true? I may be wrong. I sat at the coffee shop once for some while and have observed that this teenager was feeling so bored that he started to use a penknife to slice the table to make scratch marks. He seemed to be waiting for his friend and while waiting he decided to do what he did. Then I approached him to ask him to stop. He was not happy and showed me that face" mind your own business!". Then he walked away. What are your views on this ? Do share if you seen or know of people. Cheers and thank you.

  9. Marissa Mayer has repeatedly said reviving growth at Yahoo Inc.would take multiple years. But many insiders have lost patience, saying the embattled chief executive has no clear sense of direction and has misled investors and advertisers about the company’s progress. In recent months, a crisis of morale has gripped Yahoo, as dozens of executives who had been instrumental to Ms. Mayer’s turnaround plan have left for jobs elsewhere. Ms. Mayer called a meeting with senior executives in August and asked them to sign a written agreement to stay with the company for at least three more years, according to two people familiar with the meeting. Finance chief Ken Goldman was one of the first to pledge his commitment, but some executives left the room unsure they could make such a promise, one of the people said. In January, Ms. Mayer expects to complete the spinoff of shares inAlibaba Holding Group Ltd., putting the focus squarely on Yahoo’s core business. Sales from that business continue to shrink, from $4.5 billion in 2012 when Ms. Mayer arrived to $4.4 billion last year and even less expected for 2015.Under Ms. Mayer, Yahoo’s forays into mobile software, online video and search have cost the company hundreds of millions of dollars but yielded no meaningful growth in total users or revenue. Ms. Mayer said last month the company would adopt another strategy to“reset” the company’s focus, without providing details.The CEO has hired management consultant McKinsey & Co. to look for areas of the company to cut, said a person familiar with the matter. Forbes and Recode earlier reported aspects of Yahoo’s troubles. The stagnation prompted activist investor Starboard Value LP last week to call on the company to halt its Alibaba spinoff and instead find a buyer for its core business. Yahoo has failed to get prior approval of its plan from the Internal Revenue Service, raising the risk that the agency could later challenge the spinoff’s tax-free status. On an October earnings call Ms. Mayer said the company feels strongly the deal meets requirements for tax-free status. A Yahoo spokeswoman declined to make Ms. Mayer available for an interview. She pointed to earnings calls in which Ms. Mayer has defended the progress she has made in adding new lines of revenue from mobile ads and other areas. The company declined to comment further.When the Ms. Mayer is forced to deliver bad news, she employs what she calls a “jiu-jitsu move”—trying to create a diversion by producing tantalizing information, according to people who have worked closely with her. For example, Ms. Mayer created an accounting metric called “Mavens” designed to spotlight the growing parts of Yahoo. The grouping includes revenue from mobile, video, native and social ads but excludes Yahoo’s largest portion of revenue—its shrinking business of display ads on desktop computers. Analysts say much of Mavens growth comes at the expense of Yahoo’s desktop business, since many advertisers are shifting their ad spend from older formats that are more expensive and considered less effective. “The Mavens number was ridiculous because the vast majority of what they are generating was not new revenue,” said Brian Wieser, an analyst at Pivotal Research LLC. When Yahoo announced its $1.1 billion acquisition of Tumblr Inc. in May 2013, Ms. Mayer said that adding the blogging site’s 300 million users would put Yahoo over the 1 billion mark. That year, Ms. Mayer led an overhaul of the methodology it used to measure its audience across desktop computers and mobile devices, according to people involved in the project. The CEO weighed in on debates about different techniques, and she often leaned on the method that produced the larger number, said one of the people. In October 2014, more than a year after Ms. Mayer’s prediction, Yahoo said it crossed 1 billion monthly users, more than half of whom were on mobile devices. That was also the first time Yahoo relied on a new methodology to track users, the people said. On a call with analysts, Ms. Mayer said Yahoo used a different metric but didn’t disclose the methodology. As her strategy has shifted, Ms. Mayer has variously cast Yahoo as a challenger to Netflix Inc. in online video content and as a threat to Google Inc. in Web search, but has made little progress toward either goal. Yahoo spent more than $100 million over the past two years producing original video content, excluding the cost of employees, according to people familiar with the matter. Yahoo Screen, a portal for professional content from media partners such as Walt Disney Co.’s ABC and The Wall Street Journal as well as Yahoo-produced content, had 25 million unique video viewers, about the same number it had early 2014, according to comScore, whose data excludes mobile users. Yahoo wrote off a $42 million expensefor the cost of online shows including “Community” in the third quarter. Yahoo’s focus and investments appear to be shifting to search. An internal project called Yahoo Index aims to build a new search engine geared toward mobile phones, people familiar with the company have said. Yahoo relies on partners to generate search queries, sell ads and to capture users. Perhaps the most significant partner for Yahoo to secure in search,Apple Inc., appears to be elusive. Though Ms. Mayer has stated she is open to negotiating with the iPhone maker to become the default search provider for Apple’s mobile Safari browser, no discussions have occurred, according to people familiar with the matter.

  18. hi guys, I need some advice from you guys. Fedex made a screw up and this is having a major effect on my business. here's the info: I'm a very small company manufacturing/ selling products related to car audio ( some of you guys here know me personally or some of u guys have my products in your car). Now, my main market is overseas as singapore is just too small and i've succeeded in expanding overseas. To make my brand bigger, i've successfully managed to sponsor a very famous person in my industry. Basically he is a world champion and world record holder in my industry and he will be endorsing my product and brand. He is highly respected and basically, he is the champion in the competition scene. At the end of May, when we finalised the endorsement deal, I sent up around 60kg worth of product to him via Fedex. I usually use Singpost EMS, but this being important, i rather pay premium and use Fedex. Now, goods went out rough 29th May and reach the destination country ( Brazil) on the 1st of June and customs were processing it on the 2nd June. Brazilian customs are a**holes and usually take 2 weeks to process. on the 3rd week of June, I heard nothing and got my guys in Brazil to check things out. I later found out my goods were confiscated by customs as they were deemed " for resale value". At no time did Fedex bother to call me up and tell me whats going on. On further probing, I was later told to hire my own customs broker to clear the goods in Brazil. I had my guys in Brazil on standby with the broker to clear the goods. The broker has personally been down to the Fedex Office in brazil to try and clear the goods but he is unable to do it as he does not have the paper work. They ( my guys in Brazil)have been chasing Fedex through the month of July. Come early August, my guys in Brazil have exhausted all their means to get my goods and told me to do something. I called Fedex Singapore, only to learn that they were seriously " back dated", telling me to hire my own customs broker to clear the goods. i blasted the hell out of them all and was finally referred to their manager and I finally got the update on the info: my goods are with the Brazilian customs. The paper work for the goods are also with the customs. Only Fedex Brazil can take back the paper work from the customs as my broker is not authorised to. We got the number of the clearance manager in Brazil ( fedex) but my guys there still cant get hold of him. Now my sponsor guy is considering dropping my brand due to this issue and i'm gonna be in BIG SH1T for this. Basically, imagine if you manufacture engines and u get Lewis Hamilton to endorse your products, only to have fedex screw thins up for u. I'm at my wits end, Fedex Main office is in KL. Anyone here knows anyway how to help me out. I'm short of going to the media with this as this is seriously causing big problems for my business. Thanks in advance guys Cheers
