"Switching from using 100 percent virgin (nonrecycled) bleached paperboard envelopes to envelopes made from around 80 percent postconsumer recycled content (which fedex, USPS and Airborne Express did) cuts greenhouse gas emissions by 39 percent, toxic effluent flow by 81 percent, and solid waste by 60 percent. ?FedEx Kinko's has taken action to dramatically reduce its ecological footprint by increasing the recycled content of the paper used behind the counter at more than eleven hundred U.S. fedex Kinko's Office and Print Centers.39 fedex Kinko's introduced a new paper line in 2004." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"Think of it as the UPS or fedex system in your body that packs everything and ships it out in the urine and stool. We make it from foods that contain sulfur—garlic and onions, cruciferous vegetables, egg yolks, and most forms of protein. All these contain an amino acid called cysteine, the basic building block of glutathione. Add a few more amino acids like glycine and glutamine and a few vitamins (B6, B12, folate), and voila, the magic of the methylation and sulfation trains pops out a little glutathione molecule." - Mark Hyman MD, The UltraMind Solution: Fix Your Broken Brain by Healing Your Body First (Get the book.)

"On separate days he shipped each box by fedex to the Minnesota laboratory, some 1,500 miles away. He had been careful to blind the experiment so that neither Dibble nor Kohane would know which device contained the intention and which the control when the two devices arrived. The Excelsior scientists prepared several groups consisting of eight vials of fruit fly larvae and placed three of the groups of vials inside Faraday cages. They then placed both black boxes inside two of the cages with the vials and turned them on." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"FedEx Kinko's Office and Print Centers.39 fedex Kinko's introduced a new paper line in 2004. The new paper increased the overall annual postconsumer recycled content average to an estimated 26.2 percent, close to achieving the company's goal of 30 percent. (However, while this is a good first step, I think they can do a lot better.) How about your checks? Check Gallery is one of America's leading environmentally friendly bank check printers. Their personal checks are printed with soy-based ink on recycled bond paper." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.) "Airborne Express, DHL, fedex, United Parcel Service, and the United States Postal Service have also introduced reusable packaging, higher postconsumer recycled content, and unbleached paper. Switching from using 100 percent virgin (nonrecycled) bleached paperboard envelopes to envelopes made from around 80 percent postconsumer recycled content (which fedex, USPS and Airborne Express did) cuts greenhouse gas emissions by 39 percent, toxic effluent flow by 81 percent, and solid waste by 60 percent. ?" - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"Firefighters were still extinguishing the fire when Harley bummed a ride to fedex to send the grant proposal. The front of the car, meanwhile, "melted like icing." As he'd predicted, fellow scientists were not supportive. He and James were, Harley says, "body-slammed." Nevertheless, true to his word, Harley closed down some other areas of research and he and James went to work." - Donna Jackson Nakazawa, The Autoimmune Epidemic (Get the book.)

"FedEx and Micro Machine toy cars in the 1980s. Although his words were barely discernable, the speed of Moschitta's delivery points to a preference most listeners have for fast speech. Our normal rate of speech is 125 to 195 words per minute, but research shows that we prefer speakers on the faster end of the spectrum. Signals from the low end: Introversion; insecurity; depression. Although speed-of-speech norms differ region by region, slower speech is typically seen as a sign that a person feels tentative about his words, or his thought processes have slowed, as in depression." - Tonya Reiman, The Power of Body Language: How to Succeed in Every Business and Social Encounter (Get the book.)

"On June 24, 1994, for example, the New York Times ran a prominent article announcing that Federal Express had formally changed its name to "FedEx"—not exactly an earth-shattering expose. In fact, the story resulted from a PR campaign by fedex. A photo accompanying the story showed a fedex jet, and the photo credit simply read "Associated Press." Actually, Federal Express paid AP to electronically distribute the PR photo, which was staged and taken by the Federal Express company rather than an AP photographer.9 Is It Real Or Is It Memorex?" - John Stauber and Sheldon Rampton, Toxic Sludge is Good For You: Lies, Damn Lies and the Public Relations Industry (Get the book.)

"THIRTEEN The SEC Gets Involved prior to the planned meeting with Partland & Longhorn, I sent Pamela a fedex of old e-mails and memos that I had printed out and saved over the last few years, memos that showed in chronological order what had happened during my interaction with Pfizer and Partland & Longhorn. I included an e-mail from my assistant complaining about our multiple moves, the article from CFO magazine,1 and an alert about the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, covering the criminal statute for retaliation." - Peter Rost, The Whistleblower: Confessions of a Healthcare Hitman (Get the book.)

"One day as he was leaving the academy's headquarters, he spied the fedex package I had left earlier in the day for pickup. Seeing his name on the front, he took the envelope and said to the security guard with some amusement, "She finds me, no matter where I am." Lilienfeld suffered his last heart attack as he was getting off the train in Baltimore. His son David told me that the final, opened galleys for our accepted manuscript were in his briefcase. As my father lay in a coma for three weeks, few people thought he would come out." - Devra Davis, The Secret History of the War on Cancer (Get the book.)

"Federal Express will arrive soon, delivering the baffling influenza strains from labs that examined a patient's throat or lung culture, but could not fully identify the strain. fedex brings mystery organisms almost every morning during the northern hemisphere's slow spring and summer flu seasons, and twice a day as new strains speed off from Asia once cold November sets in. Cox's seven lab specialists carefully unpack the rogue virus particles, isolate them in lab equipment, multiply them to get more quantity needed for testing, and probe them to see if they behave like any known strains." - Elinor Levy, Mark Fischetti, The New Killer Diseases: How the Alarming Evolution of Germs Threatens Us All (Get the book.)

"Nothing much," I replied, just as a fedex truck rounded the corner. The UPS driver threw his body in front of the braking fedex truck, narrowly averting a front-to-back mating of the two vehicles. I momentarily speculated that they could name the offspring of this union "Fed-Up," when the female bird suddenly turned a full half-circle. This was the male bird's main chance. Entranced, the two drivers and I witnessed the brief feathery consummation." - Oscar London, From Voodoo to Viagra: The Magic of Medicine: 37 Uplifting Essays from a Doctor's Bag of Tricks (Get the book.) "The buff, cookie-cutter fedex driver with big hair and large appendage is suddenly seeing an endangered species staring back at him from his full-length bathroom mirror. In the not too distant past, the American man in the street—and who can argue that a fedex driver is not an American man in the street?—collectively spent billions on refoliating his scalp and surgically enhancing his breeding tube. He is now frantically seeking out surgeons newly skilled at uprooting and downsizing." - Oscar London, From Voodoo to Viagra: The Magic of Medicine: 37 Uplifting Essays from a Doctor's Bag of Tricks (Get the book.)
