Reader asks how telemarketers are faking with local numbers

And biggest question of all: How to make it stop?

Diane Benningfield writes:
I am wondering how I can get several phone calls a day from local phone numbers, then when you answer it is a telemarketer of some sort, or Rachel from the credit card company telling me this is my final phone call. Which it isn't, because she calls back every day. I would love to know how to make it stop. Is this happening to anyone else? --Diane Benningfield
Thanks, Diane Benningfield. Hope someone can offer us the answer. It's infuriating. Hope someone has a simple answer. - EW

#Y2Stay: Culture shock is no match for LWC Students


Click on headline for story with photo(s)

By Kassie LittleAssistant Director International Student Studies, LWC

Culture shock is defined as the feeling of disorientation experienced by someone who is suddenly subjected to an unfamiliar culture, way of life, or set of attitudes. Whether or not you are an international student, you have probably experienced culture shock at some point in your life.

Maybe it was whenever you moved out of your parents' house and into a college dorm. Maybe, you started a new job and were thrown into a new environment with people who think and act differently than you do. When in these situations, you probably felt the symptoms of culture shock.

By Carol Perkins

I am a victim of mass marketing. Not that I have not benefited from owning a "my pillow" and a "Red Copper" pan, but they typify my need to order things. Guy gives them both two thumbs up. I honestly do not rest as well on any other pillow. I use the pillow more than the pan.

She has never climbed up in my car, but I know it could be a possibility.

She is about 3 months old ,so she is still fairly small but larger than she is in the accompanying picture.

I know it's a long shot for us to find her but I have a little girl that is broken hearted and well I am too so I have to give it a try. If anyone has any information please call or text 270-805-1018 - Corinna Edwards
