I bought Christmas crackers this year that had this design on them.

Heraldicly sound, but not particularly striking. The stars in the upper canton remind me of a five spot on a die too.

Interesting design, but it feels like someone has torn it up and is missing the rest of it. Sometimes I wonder if these flags got designed just for the sake of having a flag (a certain Eddie Izzard joke springs to mind here).

I used to love shopping at New York and Company. I never had any trouble with the customer service or the look of the stores. When I shopped there, I would come out with dozens of outfits to mix and match. NY & C always had the nicest work clothes for me. Not too revealing but still stylish and expensive looking. Now, I have all but stopped shopping there because I can never find any pretty clothes any more. The prices aren't bad, the web site is easy to use, but the clothes are ugly. It seems like they are trying to be too trendy and not sensible with their fashions any more. I guess I am better off shopping at a department store that has classy looking clothing for young professionals. I would like to see NY & Co start getting back some classy clothing. Now all I see are t-shirts with necklaces printed on them, and skirts that would fit an 8 year old.

Looks quite similar to the logo used by the crew of the original USS Enterprise (and later the rest of Starfleet in the later series). Sadly it's not Gene Rodenberry who copied this, but the other way round as this flag didn't come into existence until 10 years after Star Trek first hit our screens.

After being terrified because of bad reviews, I went ahead and got my Paragard anyway. I took 4 Advil an hour before the appt. There was a bit of pain before insertion but like a shot, by the time you feel the pain it's over. That was all. The actual insertion felt like a regular pap exam, uncomfortable but not painful. I did this on my lunch hour and went back to work no problem. I took 2 more Advil 4 hrs. later just as a precaution and so far so good. No pain, no cramps (no more than I would normally have) If anything changes I will add on to this review. Don't be afraid!!!!!

Must have got their flag designed by the same people that designed their government infrastructure.

As far as design goes, I don't think this is any better than average. In flag design, simpler is normally better, and I find this too cluttered. At least it follows basic heraldic design principles though.

This isn't the New Zealand flag... it should be the same as the Aussie flag, but with 4 red stars instead of the white ones. The flag being shown here instead is a Naval flag.

About a 3.5 in overall design (too cluttered) but I'm being generous in acknowledging the use of traditional crosses recognizing the union of kingdoms.

Not a fan. It looks like the logo of an airline or a mining corporation.

Considering the Union Jack is supposed to be a symbol of unity not all countries it represents got a fair deal (aww poor Wales!). The most prominent part of the flag is the English flag of St. George which is set in front of a combination of the Scottish flag (the blue and white) and the Irish flag of St. Patrick (the diagonal red lines). I guess despite the union we English still had to get our own way. It is this symbol of a unified Kingdom which made me decide to give it 4 stars.

Design-wise it is pretty lacking - it's the equivalent of getting four great-yet-simple dishes and mixing them all into one big mush. Not a great choice really, but understandable why it was chosen.

It looks more like a corporate logo, than a nation’s flag.

I would not touch Telus with a ten foot pole! Their customer service is absolutely horrible and they don't have any spectacular deals. When I decided to switch providers and wanted to port my number to my new provider I found out there is a mandatory 30 day notice required that only starts when your number has been ported to the new provider. This essentially means you are required to pay an extra month in order to take your number with you! Stay away from Telus!!!

Strong design, immediately recognizable and highly symbolic. All those are positives in design, but I really don't like the pale blue

Note to Bangladesh: If you want to put a big red circle on your flag, this is the way to do it.

For a tricolour flag it's not that bad, but being British we're supposed to hate the French (long history of conflicts which we've won at, and we sunk their navy during WW2). Personally I think it's an okay flag as it's simple and instantly recognisable (though turn it on it's side and magically it becomes the flag for the former Yugoslavia).

Classic and simple, and follows basic heraldic design principles, which meets my standard for a good flag.

I booked my online reservation months before my vacation for a 2 day rental out of San Jose Airport. I was quoted $109 for a mid size car. Once I got there, there did not have a mid size car so their solution was to upgrade my car but I had to pay the extra!!! $10.00 a day extra. Then I prepaid the gas in which I was told if we did not use all the gas, we would get a credit. I returned it with well over a 1/2 of tank but conviently they decided not to credit me and refused to help me. When I got home, I noticed they charged my card $400.00. What was suppose to be $109 went to $400.00. When I called the customer care line, they were unhelpful and basicly said since they weren't there at the time I rent the car, there was nothing they could do. I finally was able to get a manager who only decided to credit me 1/2 the gas price of $36.00. BIG DEAL!!! They should have refunded the whole frikken amount. I will NEVER EVER rent a car from them again. Please be careful when renting.
