![]() | PPL Brunner Island / FedEx Freight Semi catching air Admittedly, I can not be 100% sure that this Fed Ex Freight truck, pulling trailer number P15895, has actually been to PPL Brunner Island, but due to the nature of the violation, FedEx was chosen for the Violator on Video Award for 28NOV07. Not only did this guy run the stop sign, but he turned the corner so hard and fast that he actually gets the driver's side trailer tire a good foot off the ground. I actually couldn't believe this when I first reviewed the video, but after viewing several times, viewing it frame by frame, and even exporting frames to my photo editing software for a closer look, it is clear that the tire leaves the ground as the trailer passes the telephone pole. |

![]() | December 18 to be the Busiest Day in FedEx History December 2006 (Medialink) -- Continuing a nine year trend, FedEx Corp. expects to make history again when a record-breaking total of 9.8 million packages move through its global and ground networks on December 18, 2006. This could be the busiest night in the history of FedEx, breaking the company's previous record night of 8.9 million last year. According to FedEx chief economist Gene Huang, growing volumes are a positive sign for economic strength during this heightened retail season. The National Retail Federation predicts a solid holiday season, citing anticipated growth of 5 percent over last year, bringing projected holiday spending to $457.4 billion. Also, online retailing is expected to increase 18 percent over last year. While sending gifts early will save time, FedEx is ready to help last minute shoppers get their gifts delivered in time for the holiday. The last day to ship with FedEx Express is December 22, 2006. The last day to ship FedEx Ground is December 15, 2006. On its first day in operation in 1973, Federal Express (as it was then known) delivered 186 packages. This year, the holiday season began in July of 2006 as goods left overseas ports and entered the FedEx Freight system for delivery to retailers. FedEx Express and the company overall will see its peak in mid-December as the highest value goods move from manufacturers directly to retailers and customers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Produced for FedEx |

![]() | Memphis Tornado Coverage The 2008 Super Tuesday Tornado Outbreak was a deadly tornado outbreak affecting the Southern United States and the lower Ohio Valley from February 5--6, 2008. In total, 82 tornadoes were confirmed. The outbreak produced several destructive tornadoes in heavily populated areas, most notably in the Memphis metropolitan area, in Jackson, Tennessee, and the northeastern end of the Nashville metropolitan area. At least 58 people were killed in the outbreak by tornadoes across four states and 18 counties, with hundreds of others injured. The outbreak was the deadliest in the U.S. since the May 31, 1985 outbreak that killed 76 across Ohio and Pennsylvania (and also killed 12 in Ontario, Canada). It also was the deadliest tornado outbreak in both Tennessee and Kentucky since the 1974 Super Outbreak. In Arkansas, the 13 fatalities were the most since 25 were killed during the Benton, Arkansas Tornado Outbreak on March 1, 1997. In addition to the tornadoes, the same system produced significant straight-line wind damage, hail as large as softballs, major flooding, significant freezing rain, and heavy snow across many areas of eastern North America. Memphis area tornado A supercell thunderstorm moved across the Tennessee and Mississippi state boundary and produced a tornado at 5:32 PM CDT (2332 UTC) in Southaven, Mississippi near Southaven High School which was heavily damaged. The tornado quickly tracked across the line into southeastern Memphis. National Weather Service officials issued a tornado emergency (the first of five in the outbreak) across most of the Memphis region and the suburbs. It produced a swath of extensive damage over residential and commercial areas. WREG tower cameras showed the tornado tracking across the southeastern suburbs, particularly Southaven, Mississippi, with sightings of debris and power flashes. An eyewitness took pictures of the tornado. Hickory Ridge Mall suffered damage when portions of a wall and roof were destroyed. Major damage has also been reported in the Pleasant Ridge area of Germantown and the south end of Memphis. Damage was also reported at Memphis International Airport, where a hangar lost its roof, the FedEx freight terminal's fire station suffered roof damage (FedEx service was disrupted due to flight delays and closed roads from the tornado damage in surrounding areas; the FedEx superhub suffered minimal damage), airstair trucks were thrown 100 yards (91 m), and aircraft were moved around, including a Boeing 737 being moved one foot. The airport was locked down before the tornado hit; the airport weather station's reporting equipment recorded a gust of 73 knots (84 mph, 135 km/h). The Hardy Bottling Company facility was also damaged, which released 120,000 pounds (54,500 kg) of anhydrous ammonia into the atmosphere, although no public health impacts were reported. Electricity was also briefly cut to about 65,000 customers in Memphis. The National Weather Service rated the tornado as an EF2. Four people in the metropolitan area are confirmed dead. Three people were killed when a warehouse collapsed in the Hickory Hill section of Memphis. A spokesperson for the state's Emergency Management Agency also reported one fatality at the Hickory Ridge Mall, although the NWS office in Memphis has not confirmed such. 36 other people were injured in Shelby County by the tornadoes. One other death took place southeast of Hebron by a separate EF3 tornado.

![]() | Airborne (DHL) vs Federal [EXTRA FUNNY] In the 1980's Airborne Freight Corporation passed Emery Freight Corporation and then set it's sights on Federal Express. Despite a low advertising budget, Airborne went ahead and branded the name "Airborne Overnight" long before it became "Airborne Express". Here, during the development of television advertisements, the producers had a bit of politically incorrect behavior. It's all in fun, and no drivers were injured during the making of this video. (Actually, it was probably really on film at that time". ENJOY. |
