text: Aircraft Charter FAQ Are Client Services and Dispatch representatives available 24 hours-a-day, Seven days-a-week? Yes! For your convenience, our Client Services Representatives are available 24/7/365 to assist you in your travel needs. There's no such thing as "after business hours". Simply call the main number, 214.654.1681, to reach a charter representative anytime, day or night. Where in the world may I travel? Chartering a private aircraft grants you access to thousands of General Aviation airports located throughout the United States and Worldwide. We require a runway length minimum of at least *5,000 feet for all jet aircraft and 3,500 feet for turboprops. *Weather conditions may require a longer runway. How far in advance do I need to make a reservation? The sooner the better, but If you have last minute plans that arise, do not let that keep you from calling us! If we do not have availability within our fleet, we can still assist with your travel needs through our Preferred Partner Network. What type of catering is provided for private aircraft charters? All charter aircraft are stocked with standard onboard snacks and beverages such as soft drinks, liquors & mixers, pretzels, chips, assorted candy bars, and chewing gum. We will also make every effort to obtain any specific item or meals that you would like. Additional catering requests will be billed upon completion of the trip. Do you own the aircraft? Aircraft are owned by individual owners who hire Business Jet Access to manage the aircraft for them. We are responsible for FAA Compliance, crew training, maintenance, and administrative functions for all of the aircraft in our fleet. What if Business Jet Access does not have an aircraft available for me to charter? If we do not have an aircraft available that satisfies your travel requirements, we will use our list of Preferred Partners, a network of vetted charter operators, to obtain what you are looking for. We only use operators that have successfully obtained a Wyvern® or ARG/US® Gold/ Platinum rating for your safety. Do I need ID to board the aircraft? Yes, the crew will check valid government issued identification against their passenger manifest before allowing you to board the aircraft. What is "Minimum Use Hours" and how is it billed? Minimum Use Hours are the billable cost for the downtime of the aircraft on a trip. Trips are generally quoted based on a 2-hour minimum per day usage. For example: A 4-day trip only has an actual flight time of 6.2 hours 4 day trip = 8 hour minimum 8 hour minimum – 6.2 actual flight hours = 1.8 hours of Minimum Use Hours Minimum Use Hours X hourly cost of the aircraft = Minimum Use Hours fee Are there any cancellation fees? All trips cancelled within 48 hours of a the departure time set forth in the Quoted Itinerary are subject to a cancellation fee equal to 50% of the charge for the cancelled itinerary. All trips cancelled within 24 hours of a the departure time set forth in the Quoted Itinerary are subject to a cancellation fee equal to 100% of the charge for the cancelled itinerary.On Business Jet Access Peak Demand Days and International trips cancelled within 72 hours of the departure time set forth in the Quoted Itinerary are subject to cancellation fee equal to the full charge for the cancelled itinerary. What fees are not included in the quote that I may be responsible for paying? Our quote includes all of the fixed costs associated with your trip such as flight time, fuel, and crew costs, but there are some things we cannot anticipate. Catering, ground transportation, deicing, etc. These are charged back to you after we receive a bill from the third party provider. Can I bring golf bags and luggage? The amount of luggage you can bring with you depends on the capacity and performance of the aircraft you book for your trip. Please contact your Charter Advisor for more information. Can I bring the family pet? Of course! We do have certain aircraft with pet restrictions, so just let your Charter Advisor know that your pet will be traveling so we can ensure you are on the right aircraft. Why am I charged Minimums? Minimum Use Fees or "Minimums" are charged to compensated for the aircraft being taken off the charter market for the duration of your trip. The rate is two (2) hours per day. In some cases it may be more cost-effective for us to quote you two round trips instead of leaving the aircraft at your destination. Your Charter Advisor will explain this in further detail based on the specific trip that you chose. How long is a crew duty day? A crew duty day is 14 hours long, and includes the time it takes for the crew to get the aircraft ready before your flight and put the aircraft away after you land. This is a regulatory requirement, and therefore we cannot schedule a trip where the crew remains on duty for longer than 14 hours at a time. If your trip will be longer than 14 hours, we will need to schedule a rest period of at least 10 hours for the crew to satisfy the regulatory requirements. Can I bring guns on board? Yes, however we do have restrictions on how they are stored on board the aircraft, so make your Charter Advisor aware when you book your trip. What happens in the event of maintenance or bad weather? Unfortunately, there are times when the weather does not cooperate, or an unscheduled maintenance issue arises. In these cases, we will give you options to make sure your travel experience with us is as effortless as possible. In the event of weather, you will be notified as soon as we have information that it may cause an issue for departure or arrival. At that point we can discuss adjusting departure or arrival times or airports to avoid the weather issue. In the event of a maintenance issue, you will be given an estimate of time we will need to troubleshoot and resolve the issue. At that point, you can advise our team if you would prefer to wait on your aircraft, or if you would like us to work on a recovery option for you. Is a Cabin Service Representative/Flight Attendant required for each jet charter? On Midsize jets and Super-Midsize, Cabin Service Representatives/Flight Attendants are optional. On our large cabin aircraft, however, company policy may require a cabin service representative and/or a flight attendant for your safety and that of the aircraft. What happens if I spill my food/drink on the floor? Our cleaning crew will take care of the spill and we will pass the invoice along to you after the flight. We do request that you refrain from drinking red wine on board our aircraft because those spills are much harder to clean and can generate very pricey invoices. Will I have a flight attendant? On several of our Large Cabin aircraft you will have a flight attendant onboard, but any smaller aircraft are by request only.

The most flavorful and healthy turkey chili, packed to the brim with veggies, and slowly cooked to perfection in the crockpot! The perfect meal to finish off busy and chilly days!
I love love love making soups and chilis in the crockpot! The hours and hours of slow simmering infuses flavors together and enhances them in a way that just can't compare to a quickly-made soup. (Except for maybe this fast and easy White Chicken Chili recipe!) And this chili is no exception…it's one of Nate's and my favorite winter chili recipes, and after trying it for yourself, you'll be able to see (er, taste) why! It uses lean turkey and 2 types of beans for protein, and is packed with tons of colorful and delicious vegetables! I mean, just look at all these colors!!:
Especially around the holidays, when there are yummy foods and irresistible desserts within arms reach everywhere at work, at home, at parties, it's extra important to make dinners when we are at home nutritious and wholesome, so that our bodies still get the fuel they need to stay healthy, alert, and strong through the craziness that accompanies this time of year! This chili is all about using veggies to their full potential, and definitely fits the bill for a healthy family dinner! Plus, it tastes so so delicious, and makes the house smell amazing!! I love being able to come home after a crazy day, and having dinner completely ready to eat.
You'll see in the recipe below that I listed the prep time taking about 30 minutes. That's just how long it took me to wash and chop up the onion, bell peppers and carrots (I'm kinda a slow dicer). You can drastically cut this time down by buying prechopped vegetables, recruiting some help with the chopping, or by using a large food processor with a chop/dice blade option.
Once all the veggies are chopped, you'll just crumble the raw turkey into the crockpot bowl, open a few cans, and then dump them + the veggies and spices over the turkey, stir everything up, and press start! The recipe takes about 4-5 hours on High, or 7-9 hours on Low to cook, but it is forgiving, and can stand to cook an extra hour or two without any problems or burning (at least none that I've ever experienced!), if you do need that extra time before you'll get home for dinner. It makes 6 large servings, so if there's only 2 of you at home (like here at my house), it's so so easy to let the leftover chili cool down, then spoon it into large ziplock freezer bags to freeze for an easy meal another day!
Top with your favorite chili toppings, like cheese, sour cream, or fresh herbs, grab some garlic toast or dinner rolls, and you've got a delicious and healthy family dinner!
- 1 pound Lean or Extra-Lean Ground Turkey
- 2 15-ounce cans Tomato Sauce
- 1 15-ounce can Black Beans (drained)
- 1 15-ounce can Chili Beans in Sauce (NOT drained)
- 1 15-ounce can Diced Tomatoes with Green Chiles (slightly drained)
- 2 Large Bell Peppers (different colors), diced
- 1 Large Onion, diced
- 1 cup diced Carrots
- 1 cup Corn kernels (I used frozen, but fresh or canned (drained) would also work well)
- 4 Large Garlic Cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
- ¼ teaspoon Ground Chipotle Chili Pepper (or more if you want to make it spicier!)
- Optional Toppings: Sour Cream, Shredded Cheese, Fresh Herbs, etc.
- First of all, make sure all vegetables are chopped and ready to go into the crockpot.
- Crumble raw turkey into the base of a large crockpot. Add Tomato Sauce, drained Black Beans, Chili Beans, drained Diced Tomatoes, diced Bell Peppers, diced Onion, diced Carrots, Corn, minced Garlic, Chili Powder, Cumin, and Chipotle Chili Pepper.
- Cook on Low for 7-9 hours, or on High for 4-5 hours, until turkey is cooked and veggies are soft.
- Enjoy with optional toppings.
- Makes 6 Servings
- Leftovers may be frozen in freezer ziplock bags.
If you love using the crockpot as much as I do, you've gotta try out these other yummy recipes:
Pizza Noodle Soup (Crockpot Recipe)
Crockpot Chicken Tortilla Soup
Crockpot Pumpkin Pie Spiced Nuts

Contrary to what you might think, based on the focus of most of the posts on this site, we don't necessarily believe there's always a technological solution to every problem. In fact, for many areas in life, I've often found the right life hack for my particular need may be discovered at perhaps the opposite end of the spectrum: philosophy.
In particular, the Ancients really knew how to live well and started hacking great ways to deal with the effects of technology from the moment Prometheus gave us fire. For example, I don't make it to the theater as much as I'd like anymore, but whenever I do, I take a page from Epictetus:
When you are going about any action, remind yourself what nature the action is. If you are going to bathe, picture to yourself the things which usually happen in the bath: some people splash the water, some push, some use abusive language, and others steal. Thus you will more safely go about this action if you say to yourself, "I will now go bathe, and keep my own mind in a state conformable to nature." And in the same manner with regard to every other action. For thus, if any hindrance arises in bathing, you will have it ready to say, "It was not only to bathe that I desired, but to keep my mind in a state conformable to nature; and I will not keep it if I am bothered at things that happen."
Okay, so we don't have public baths anymore, but this technique works well in movie theaters, lines at amusement parks, restaurants, or pretty much anywhere you intend to enjoy yourself around other people. Seriously, I consider this passage with many deep breaths at almost every movie I attend. It works.

You always wanted to be your own boss and Online Marketing can help you realize that dream. But all too often it is too easy to become complacent and let the basics slide as you get settled into the routine of your job. Maybe because your new job allows you to stay at home you feel it's not as important to keep regular hours. Or maybe you feel that your new business venture gives you the excuse to forgo normal activities. And it may just be because you are the boss and you said so. This new business can be a blessing and / or a curse. How much so is up to you.
Sometimes it is all too easy to treat your new company as a second thought. After all once it is up and running there is some breathing room where it does not need constant attention. That kind of thinking can do irreparable damage to your business plan. You have to treat it like a business to be successful. You can make a good living as an Internet business owner. But it requires a degree of dedication to make your Internet marketing online a success.
Online Marketing can be very good to you, but in return you need to be good to it. You need to maintain your business and make sure that you do your follow up and most importantly the customer service end of it. Nothing can and will kill a business, whether it is a brick and mortar business or your new online Company, faster than crappy customer service. In fact, your business may be hurt faster than a brick and mortar company because people can use online marketing blogs and post and email faster than they can physically contact people
Remember that every contact is a potential new business customer for you and so you need to treat each one as a special addition. You only get one chance to make that first impression and in the online business arena it can be critical.
If you have done your online marketing research well before you started doing your business then you know your target audience. Your strategy will depend on pleasant the people you identified as customers for marketing online.
Remember that to your customers you are the company and if you do that and treat them as you expect to be treated, you are going to be successful with your website online marketing.

Earlier this week, I was interviewed by a Russian TV crew about Apple. They were a bit surly and aggressive, not like polished, ingratiating TV people here in the U.S.
They kept asking strange questions about Steve Jobs, as is if he were a crooked oligarch. "Vy does Steve Joybs vant to be dictator? Vy does he vant to dominate ze vorld?"
Then the producer, who looked like an aging Chechen war criminal, told me that Jobs tried to get a ride on the doomed Challenger Space Shuttle mission in 1986, instead of the school teacher, Christa McAuliffe. He tried to buy his way on, he said.
I was pretty surprised. I'd never heard this before. When I asked where he got this story, he said this was "information from Russia," and kinda winked, like it was a KGB leak or something. But he acted as though it was fact.
If the story had dated from 2001, I would have been more inclined to believe it. That's when the first space tourist, Dennis Tito, flew on a Russian Soyuz rocket. However, in the early '80s, NASA launched a program to put private citizens into space called the Space Flight Participation Program. The Teacher in Space Project, which put poor McAuliffe on the flight, was an outgrowth of that.
I throw this out because it's a fun story, nothing else. Has anyone else heard anything like it? Could it be true?

With support from Netherhall, Scattering Ashes and Severn.
The Slade Rooms Wolverhampton 20th January 2018.
The first Hils Ovation show of 2018 see's four fantastic bands heading on down to The Slade Rooms in Wolverhampton and with the Christmas and New Year musical drought finally about to end, tonight's line up was exactly just what was needed.
With Torous sadly having made the decision to withdraw from tonight's original line up, our opening band for this evening were the newly formed and local heavy rockers, Severn. For those fans of past hero's Martyr de Mona and GlassBullet, there were a few familiar faces to be seen up on stage amongst Severn's line up and despite this only being their second live performance, this up and coming band delivered a thirty minute set that was tight and expertly skillful – not that I expected anything less! Severn are most definitely a band to check out first chance you get, as I have a feeling that 2018 will see them grow and a host of new music unveiled.
Our second band of the night were the Warwickshire based Scattering Ashes, who are no strangers to the regulars of a Hils Ovation night. Lead vocalist Steve Smith makes for quite an impressive front man and his fierce vocals launched tonight's set upon the Slade Rooms with powerful gusto. It was good to hear again, tracks from the bands recently released album 'The Gift' included amongst their set choice tonight and to grab a copy of this for yourself, just head on over to the bands Facebook page for more info.
It only seems like yesterday that I had the great pleasure of seeing Netherhall at Hils Ovations Midlands Metal Crusade but even within such a small time frame, change has come upon Netherhall with the recent departure of lead vocalist Paul Berry, so tonight's incarnation from the band came in the format of being an instrumental set. Bathed in blazing fire balls of stage light and amidst billowing smoke, the combined effect of this with the proficient skill base of Lewis, Tom and Jake, saw Netherhall take their performance to a new and emotive level and not only I, but MANY others aswell stood captivated by the experience that we witnessed tonight. An excellent set from Netherhall tonight and one that will stay with me for a long time to come.
Tonight's headliners were the unmistakable Fire Red Empress, who really are creating a lot of positive vibes far and wide across the current rock and metal scene – and who are also another firm favourite of mine. With their debut album 'Black Morphine' making quite an impact for the band, it was fab to see and hear so many of it's tracks performed live tonight with an energy and enthusiasm that was equally as impressive. February will see the band performing at HRH Metal in Birmingham so if you're heading over to Birmingham on the Sunday for that, be sure to catch Fire Red Empress's set, you won't be disappointed!
Tonight's show at The Slade Rooms was one heck of a great start to the year – awesome!

Have you had time to breathe lately? Get some more wiggle room in your schedule with this simple Creamy One Pot Pasta dish. Rich creamy sauce and light savory herbs make this a 15 minute dinner win!
I love Thanksgiving and Christmas as much as anybody else, but sometimes all the holiday "stuff" can leave me feeling pretty tired and drained this time of year. By now I need to recharge and breath and connect with my own nuclear family again.
This is the perfect season to step back and reflect on what we want the coming months to look like. 2016 was a very hard year for me as I lost my father unexpectedly and quickly to cancer. There were a lot of things in my life and schedule that were out of my control. As I have reflected on the year I feel strongly that I want to make choices that put me in control of my life where I can be! I want to choose things that will give me joy each day.
In that spirit I have been focusing on finding more balance. Amid my work and my wonderful family I am making sure to make a little time for me each day. Through the mess and extra tasks of having a toddler I am taking time each day to just play with my son and enjoy his sweet spirit! There is still lots of work to do and even tasks I dislike but taking moments out of my day to do things I love and be with the people I love gives the work meaning and feeds my soul.
One of the things I have been doing to protect more down time is making simpler meals. Sometimes it takes some work to find good simple recipes you love but it is a worthwhile investment of time. One recipe you love that you can make every month is 12 meals a year!
This Creamy One Pot Pasta is one of our new easy dinner treasures and I hope it will make your 2017 easier too! Happy New Year, friends. May it be a wonderful year full of adventure and joy!
Tools In This Post: If you make pasta or boil potatoes or simmer vegetables or pretty much do any cooking at all buy a good colendar. You don't need anything fancy. Look for a sturdy model with holes and a stand or feet on the bottom so you can set it in your sink and it will stand up a few inches off the bottom of the sink. Something like this is great.
Love One Pot Pasta dishes? Try this One Pot Sausage Alfredo!

How to survive a 2,000 delegate conference – Part 2
Following part 1, 8 steps to stress-free registration, read on for the second part of our event blog mini- series which gives you a few top tips when managing speakers at large B2B events.
Keep speaker manual short, sharp & simple
Speakers often have a busy agenda and are used to speaking at multiple events throughout the year, therefore keep any pre-event requirements and instruction short, sharp & simple.
Have a range of equipment available for speakers
No one likes death by PowerPoint, so encourage speakers to use a range of different media such as video, live demos and interactive technology. Have a range of equipment on offer so speakers have all the requirements they need.
Don't be scared to chase!
As an event organiser, it is important to have everything required prior to the event such as their presentation and supporting assets, additional requirements and confirmation on rehearsals.
Don't be afraid to chase for these elements as it is essential to have this prior to the event to ensure a smooth experience for speakers and delegates alike.
Put a face to a name
It is important to have a dedicated contact that can liaise with all speakers prior to the event. This contact often builds a rapport with each speaker and it is therefore important to have this contact as the face of speaker registration upon speaker arrival to give a personal feel.
Speaker registration
Speakers are often on a tight schedule. It is therefore important to have a dedicated speaker registration desk which is easily recognisable to prevent speakers getting lost in the crowds or having to wait around before being welcomed.
Speaker green room
Having a speaker green room is important to provide speakers with a quiet place to work, make any last minute changes and gather their thoughts prior to their presentation. Locate this designated area as close as possible to the event space they will use to ensure a smooth flow throughout the day and keeping the event running to time.
Keep speakers fed and watered
It is very important to have catering available to speakers all day so that they can grab a drink or bite to eat in the moments between speaking.
A helping hand
Ensure you have a technician on-hand in the speaker green room to assist with any last minute presentation changes. This helps to keep on top of formatting and consistency which is not always top priority for a speaker.
Ensure you have a dedicated network within the venue to send presentations to each rooms technician, otherwise you may find yourself running 10 miles a day with memory sticks in hand!
Strike while the iron is hot
If anything is required from the speakers after the event, ensure you strike while the iron is hot. Once an event has taken place, speaker's priorities will jump straight to the next thing on their agenda. You should therefore ensure you have anything needed prior to the speaker leaving the venue or within the following few days.
Want to know more? Talk to us about your next B2B event.

We've been enjoying some wonderful late summer days recently, and it is a particular joy walking to the studio through the streets of Marylebone. At times like this, I love what we do at TantraLising and I know how lucky I am to do the work I do, and meet and give pleasure to some lovely clients, new and regular alike. My aspiration is that each client feels a similar sense of anticipation and excitement as he (or she) heads for their appointment with us here. Just as we aim to make sure that, when a client leaves, there is a different but equally positive kind of uplifted spirit from an incredibly enjoyable session of Tantric massage in Marylebone.
Lovely sunny days help the mood, but another important factor is Marylebone itself. When I was looking to establish a studio in London, I visited many areas, but fell in love with this one. It's an expensive area, of course, but the safe, elegant surroundings, the amazing range of people and places here, and something interesting to be seen and found at almost every corner - they all make it worthwhile. I was determined for the TantraLising studio to be one refection of a really premium service, along with our lovely practitioners and the massage options that we provide. But another aspect of that premium service comes from stepping in from (or out into) the surroundings in Marylebone - perhaps it's like stepping into a residential street in Paris or Milan, with all the unspoken history and romance wherever you look. I like to think it's an important element of the fabulous moment of escape and enjoyment for our clients.
If you arrive here by tube you'll first encounter the bustle and chaos of Baker Street to the North or the frantic crowds at Marble Arch: tourists going here, businesspeople going there; people of every age and nationality. But then head towards our studio and the tempo changes. Within minutes, the streets turn leafy and quiet, the pace of life slows and the noisy, high street atmosphere of the north or south meeting points become the small boutiques and brasseries of the less well know streets; homes of rich people; hotels for travelling people; decorators and designers; a florist on one corner, an estate agent on the next. As I walk along, towards another day meeting lovely people, it's like a visual poem, and I love to be part of it.
Come along to TantraLising and I hope you will be part of that poem too.

It has been awhile since I have answered any Ask Ron questions. As a reminder, I will answer any photography question as best I can.
A couple of weeks ago I received this question:
I love how you capture a foreground, middle ground background with such great depth.
Do you typically try to accomplish this with a 24 T/S or the 24 1.4L?
Thanks, Ray
To answer your question, yes I do use Canon's tilt shift lenses a fair amount. By tilting the plane of focus I am better able to position the depth of field from near to far without sacrificing a lot of shutter speed. I go into more detail in this post on tilt with Canon's tilt shift lenses. These lenses are especially valuable when you have something really close, say within a couple of feet, and still want to keep distant objects in focus.
But, I don't use those lenses as much as I should. It is so much easier, faster and lighter to carry one 24-105 then three tilt shift lenses. In these circumstances, I use a small aperture to maximize depth of field – usually around f/16. I then focus about 1/4 to 1/3 of the way into the scene. I also almost always will use a tripod, mirror lock up and the 2 second self timer to minimize any movement as much as possible. This is about as good as it gets without tilt. If something still has to be a bit out of focus I would rather it be distant objects – I believe prominent foreground elements have to be sharp – distant objects like mountains can be more forgiving.
Tomorrow I will answer another recent question on depth of field – this one regarding bokeh.

Righteous indignation & loud declamation belongs on talk shows. It doesn't belong on film.If liberal Hollywood film-makers remembered that, we wouldn't have seen such terrible dogs like Lions for Lambs, Rendition, and Redacted.

In Soccer in Sun and Shadow, Eduardo Galeano writes about how the "beautiful game" he loves has made a journey from "daring to fear." The great prose artist is mourning a trend where all of the risk, improvisation and individuality had been beaten out of the sport by a strict uniformity and fealty to efficiency. Perhaps this increases the opportunities for victory, but it also turns what should be art into a paint-by-the-numbers process. It turns the hit-or-miss burger on the grill into what you can get at any Five Guys or Shake Shack. Delicious, no doubt, but always the same, and eventually what was wonderful creeps toward boredom.
There are times watching the NBA when I relate to Galeano's lament. Most of players now all come through the same youth-to-pros pipeline, whether through the AAU in this country or the international system that targets players before they can lace their own high tops. In 2014, we have never seen better athletes or greater efficiency in the NBA. A typical offensive set reminds me of the embroidered saying on a throw pillow at my mother-in-law's house: "A place for everything and everything in its place."
This is why I've made my own journey from hate to love regarding Indiana Pacers performance artist/shooting guard Lance Stephenson. I have many a predilection to dislike Mr. Stephenson. He plays exactly like the kind of person who, when they come to play ball, makes everyone groan. He over-dribbles, he overshoots, he over-isolates, and he's annoying as all hell. He also plays for a team—the Indiana Pacers—that has made me grind my teeth for more than two decades.
Yet Lance Stephenson is also a throwback: someone you can actually imagine showing up at your local court looking to hone his game or just get some run. He's one of the few players today you can imagine as a character in Rick Telander's Heaven is a Playground, the person who picked up every possible positive and negative habit that once made hoops the electric art known as the "city game" before it was gentrified and branded within an inch of its dress-coded life. He is a kind of basketball currently being hunted to extinction. (The fact that Stephenson retained this while also playing in the AAU makes it even better).
It also speaks volumes that Lance Stephenson is an actual product of the New York City public school system, a graduate of Lincoln High School. NYC stars in the NBA used to be as common as short shorts, but now are rarer than a five-dollar ticket. Symbolic of this is Joakim Noah, who in 2014 became the first player from a New York City high school to make an All-Star team in over a decade. Of course, Noah, the son of an international tennis and music star and a fashion model, went to Poly Prep, an exclusive private school in Brooklyn. High schools allowed for players to get in where they fit in. The prep-to-pros pipeline is about smashing square pegs into round holes. Lance still has all his edges.
So while his teammates square up for jumpers and his opponents spot up for corner threes, there is Lance high stepping with that dribble and blowing his sweet breath into the face of LeBron James—and you know he probably chewed on some garlic before game time. I have little doubt LeBron will make Lance Stephenson pay for his every affront this evening. Getting under the skin of the most physically dominant basketball player on the planet tends to have diminishing returns. But I'm beyond grateful that in an era of carbon copies and Park Slope co-ops, Lance Stephenson can still exist and remind us of what once was. After all, no one is ever going to write a book called Heaven is an AAU Tournament.

On 25 February 2015, the Federal Cabinet passed an amendment to the Investment Regulation and the Pension Fund Investment Regulation. After the Capital Investment Code (Kapitalanlagegesetzbuch, KAGB) came into force on 22 July 2013, now the Investment Regulation (AnlV) has also been adjusted to the KAGB. With this, a legislative process that has dragged on for 19 months has finally come to an end, and with it the uncertainty regarding the investment guidelines for the whole investment sector and its institutional investors has now ended.
The last draft of an amended AnlV—published in the context of the consultations in the legislative process— dates back to May 2014 (cf. our previous client alert). This draft had been highly criticized by the funds industry, including associations, market participants, and ourselves. Some of the comments have now been addressed by the law maker and included in the version of the AnlV, which has now come into force.
According to § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 13 b) AnlV, Private Equity / Venture Capital AIF, which are managed by AIFM which are not licensed, but only registered (§ 44 KAGB, so called "Registration AIFM" or "small AIFM"), can now also be included in the restricted assets of the insurers. According to the draft from May 2014, this was only intended for AIF if their management company had a (full) AIFM license. Given the fact that numerous management companies in the funds segment are only registered, but not fully licensed, this would have represented a great challenge for parts of the industry.
Amendments in the area of real estate funds
In addition to further amendments, there have been some corrections in the area of real estate funds. The relevant regulation here is § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 14 c) AnlV. Only those real estate funds, which fulfill the requirements of this regulation, can be included in the restricted assets via the so called "real estate quota" of 25% according to § 3 Abs. 5 AnlV. Other real estate funds are admissible in principle, but have to be added to the restricted assets via the so called open quota. Such a qualification of real estate funds is often not in the interest of the investors, as the open quota is only 5% (with BaFin permission up to 10%), and is usually needed for other investments.
According to the draft AnlV of May 2014, investments in close-ended institutional real estate funds (i.e. especially the closed-ended institutional Investment Limited Partnership (InvKG)) were not admissible. This mistake has now been corrected and the catalogue of permissible real estate funds expanded to include institutional real estate funds of any nature (trust funds (Sondervermögen), InvKG, Investment-Corporation (InvAG)) and close-ended retail AIF (InvKG, InvAG). Open-ended real estate retail trust funds (Offene Immobilien-Publikums-Sondervermögen) are still not admissible according to § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 14 c) AnlV.
The extension of the real estate quota to real estate held by open-ended institutional mixed funds pursuant to § 2 para. 1 Nr. 16 AnlV is also certainly a positive development. This type of real estate can be included in the real estate quota based on its value (not on the value of the entire mixed fund).
Unfortunately, the law maker has ignored two crucial points of criticism related to the regulation of real estate funds.
According to § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 14 c) AnlV, only German and comparable EU-AIF continue to be admissible. The proposed extension to AIF formed under the law of a member state of the OECD has not been accepted. As a result, US real estate funds in particular do not qualify for § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 14 c) AnlV and hence not for the real estate quota. This is difficult to understand, as OECD (including US) REITs are permissible for the real estate quota (pursuant to § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 14 b) AnlV) and OECD private equity funds are also admissible as part of the participation quota of § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 13 AnlV. The reasoning behind the discrimination of OECD real estate funds remains inexplicable.
Furthermore, the law maker has refrained from a clarification in § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 14 c) aa) AnlV that the respective AIF can also hold funds' assets as liquidity (in the sense of §§ 231 Abs. 1 Nr. 7 and 253 KAGB) in addition to the real estate and real estate companies there described. This omission has no negative effect, however. It goes without saying that AIFs must hold liquidity, it is also in part an explicit legal obligation, cf. § 253 Abs. 1 sentence 2 KAGB.
Also, the sentence "in the event of investments via a master fund into real estate target funds, the target fund must also qualify according to no. 14 lit. c)," remained in the explanatory notes to the AnlV. This requirement, however, is not apparent from the wording of the law, leaving the legal implications of this sentence unclear.
If admissible (pursuant to § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 14 c) AnlV) German or EU real estate funds, under the regulations set for them (including the requirements of § 2 Abs. 1 Nr. 14 c) AnlV), are permitted to invest in an OECD real estate funds, which is, given the right structure, indeed possible, the sentence mentioned above should not be able to contradict this legal consequence. However, further developments in this respect remain to be seen. If necessary, different structuring options can be applied in order to make such investments possible.
The new AnlV applies to the same extent as the previous AnlV, i.e. it does apply in particular to all insurance undertakings and by state law or voluntary application to most profession-based pension funds. This is going to change after the implementation of the Solvency-II-Directive taking effect at the beginning of 2016. The new investment regime for all (except for small) insurance undertakings no longer uses the previous concept of regulating the types of admissible investments, mixture and diversification quota. Rather, it is based on a risk-related, mathematical and actuarial approach. It remains to be seen if the AnlV will remain in force for small insurance undertakings and the profession-based pension funds or whether it will be substituted by a new set of rules, possibly made at the level of the federal states with respect to the profession-based pension funds.

Hi Everyone!
It has been a very long month.
First of all, I would like to thank everyone who left the nice comments on my last post.
It is amazing how fast someones life can turn around.
My Father has gone from living in his own home and driving to a Hospital stay, then rehab, and now will be moving into Assisted Living with 24/7 care.
I am very thankful that I found him when I did.
I am also very grateful that he still knows who I am, even though everything else is so mixed up in his head.
I had hoped to bring my Father home to live with me, but unfortunately he will require around the clock care.
I am also very lucky that I found a beautiful, very caring place for him to live that is close to my home so that I can see and check on him often.
Once again, Thank You for all of your good wishes!
On to Tuesday's Tip:
I know that a lot of groomers prefer to just cut or clips mats out of, or off of a dogs coat.
There are also groomers out there, like me, who like to save a coat, face, ears, or tails.
Many groomers have their own way that they like to demat a coat.
My tip today is for using a tool that will help split large mats into smaller mats so that they will be brushed out more easily.
There are many groomers that like to use mats rakes.
That's fine as long as groomers are very careful while using them.
Personally, I don't care for them.
Too many blades to worry about getting caught up with the skin that the mat is pulling.
I like the single blade mat splitter.
(Don't ask me why I have three of them. ??)
I feel like I have more control using just the one blade.
I also know exactly what and where that one blade is cutting at all times.
This single blade mat splitter only costs around $5, but there is one problem.
It is hard as heck to find replacement blades for it.
The blades are small, narrow razor blades that are sold in a cartridge (as shown are).
These blades have to be changed fairly often, because they tend to lose their sharpness quickly, but they are great when they are sharp.
The splitter goes through the mat like a hot knife through butter.
It is also a very dangerous tool, and must be used very slowly and carefully, preferably on a dog that does not jump around.
Also, the blades, when you can find them, are not cheap.
If you use the splitter a lot and want to keep it sharp, it can turn into and expensive tool.
There is a cheaper alternative....
A letter opener......yes, I said a letter opener.
Not just any old letter opener.
It has to look something like the one pictured here.
This one came from Wal Mart for a whooping .97 cents.
You want a letter opener where the blade is surrounded by plastic.
The orange line shows the part of the letter opener that will be between the dogs body and the mat.
The plastic point helps glide the blade through the mat.
This dog has been bathed and blow dried.
Most of the mat easily brushed out while fluff drying, but there are still a few larger mats that need to be split into smaller mats so that they can be brushed out more gently.
The pointy tip of the letter opener goes down behind the mat, between the mat and skin.
**Always make sure that the blade is facing out, away from the dogs body.
With the grooming mat splitter tool (shown in the above pictures), all you need to do is get behind the mat and pull the blade through.
With the letter opener it is a little different.
It is best to use a picking motion.
Down, up, down, up.
Push the blade down into the mat and than pull back up.
Down, up, down, up.
**Always away from the dogs body. Never use sideways.
Now the mats are smaller.....
...... and much easier to brush out.
The mat is gone and there is no hole in the coat that would be left if it had been scissored or clipped out.
Here is a quick video of me using this inexpensive letter opener as a mat splitting tool:
I feel that the letter opener is a little safer than the Mat Splitter Tool, but it is still a razor blade and must always be used very carefully.
Always make sure that you are only cutting through mat and not pulling skin up into the blade.
Because this letter opener is so cheap...even if it dulls after using it on only one dog (big job)...you can easily charge the customer an extra dollar for the use of the demat tool.
Throw it away and grab a new letter opener for the next demat job.
Hope this tip helps someone. :)

Martin Guptill blitz crushes hapless Sri Lanka by 10 wickets
Martin Guptill continued his rich vein of form as New Zealand cruised to a 10-wicket win over Sri Lanka in the second one-day internationals in Christchurch on Monday
Wellington: Martin Guptill continued his rich vein of form as New Zealand cruised to a 10-wicket win over Sri Lanka in the second one-day internationals in Christchurch on Monday.
Martin Guptill of New Zealand celebrates after reaching his half-century during the first one-day international cricket match between New Zealand and Sri Lanka at Hagley Park in Christchurch. Pic/AFP
Chasing a paltry target of 118, Guptill was at his menacing best from the outset and in the process claimed the record for the fastest ODI half-century by a New Zealander, taking mere 17 balls to score 50.
Guptill made 93 not out from a mere 30 balls, which includes eight sixes and nine boundaries, as New Zealand wrapped up the match in just 8.2 overs. Tom Latham remained unbeaten on 17.
Skipper Brendon McCullum, however, couldn¿t play a part in the breakneck chase after injuring his back making a diving stop at deep square leg earlier on.
Earlier, Sri Lanka showcased an inept batting display as the tourists were bundled out for 117 within 27.4 overs. None of their batsmen were able to cross the margin of 20.
Fast bowler Matt Henry claimed his consecutive four-wicket hauls, while fellow paceman Mitchell McClenaghan took three wickets as Sri Lanka again struggled on a wicket conducive to strokeplay, Stuff.co.nz reported.
With the win, New Zealand have taken a strong 2-0 lead in the five-match series and will next take on the tourists at Nelson's Saxton Oval on New Year's Eve.

Best and worst ads in Super Bowl history
I'm a football fan, but haven't watched a Super Bowl in more than five years.
Oh sure, the TV will be on Sunday, and I'll be sitting in front of it. But while normal people are actually watching the Giants and Patriots, I'll be stuck in an endless commercial break, hitting the DVR rewind button in an attempt to parse the finer details of the latest Jack in the Box commercial.
It's not a dignified way to watch the highest-rated program of the year. But for this reason -- perseverance in the face of bad GoDaddy.com advertisements -- I'm declaring myself qualified to choose the best (and worst) Super Bowl ads of all time.
Above, we offer five of my favorite Super Bowl commercials, plus several honorable mentions. Instead of the standard rankings, I decided to go back and pick the best commercial for each decade.
We lead off with the worst Super Bowl advertisements of all time. I picked one loser from each decade.
There were plenty of bad ads to choose form. The 2000s in particular were filled with horrible Super Bowl advertisements, although the 2010s are arguably off to an even worse start. In 2011 alone, there were three commercials that I would feel completely comfortable placing as the worst of the decade.
I'm not sure what's harder to make: A really great Super Bowl advertisement or a memorably bad one.
Either way, it's entertaining.

There's a new option in the treatment of hepatitis C, with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approving Merck's Zepatier™ (elbasvir and grazoprevir) just a few days ago on January 28, 2015. This medication's entry to the treatment field came on an accelerated track with the FDA granting it a breakthrough therapy designation last year, based in part on Zepatier's strong results at the Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trial level, curing 95% of some patient sub-groups.
This news brings an additional therapy choice for two hepatitis C genotypes: genotype 1, which is the most common form of hepatitis C, and genotype 4, which is the least common type in the U.S. For both groups of patients, Zepatier is used as a once-daily pill for 12 weeks (or 16 weeks in some situations). This medication has shown success in studies including patients with failed prior treatment and those with cirrhosis. Zepatier is also appropriate for those with chronic kidney disease.
Zepatier will include a label warning that liver enzyme elevations (of five times normal) can occur with a 1% incidence; for this reason the FDA recommends liver enzyme tests before embarking on treatment, as well as periodically during treatment. The FDA also recommends, but does not require, that patients with genotype 1a of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) be tested for resistance-associated variants (RAVs) of the virus since clinical trials showed such patients to have lower response rates.
BioPlus keeps prescribers up-to-date with all the ongoing additions and changes to hepatitis C treatment with an app called HCV Treatment Path. For example, in our latest version of the app, we ask prescribers if NS5A polymorphisms are present. In some situations this could extend the treatment to 16 weeks for Zepatier, which serves as an example of how this app keeps prescribers current as they plan for individualized treatment of their patients to aim for the best possible outcomes.

Manhattan: Chow, Ciao and TV Land.
Another year, another trip to the Big Apple.
This time, Dianne and I hit Manhattan in June, when the city was weathering days in the high 80's, with occasional thunderstorms.
For us spoiled Californians, thats pretty darned hot but manageable, especially with AC in our apartment in the West Village, and in most shops. When its really hot, you spend a lot of time loitering in bank lobbies.
As always, we spent a lot of time in great restaurants. This year, they included Porter House New York, where Michael Lomonaco has rebounded. He was the chef at Windows on the World, atop one of the World Trade Center towers. Now, hes overseeing a steakhouse at the Time Warner Center on Columbus Circle. And, in a town thats pretty exacting about steaks, Lomonaco has a winner. Perfect steaks and an amazing array of starters and side dishes. The service is well-done, too. Plus, Michael plays rock guitar. What more could you want from a chef?
Because we have a friend high up in the Danny Meyer collection of restaurants, we can get tablesand didat such stellar spots as 11 Madison Parkone of New Yorks very best restaurants, according to the New York Timesand the bar caf at the Museum of Modern Art. One was fashionable; the other, fast (we were going from the Modern to see "Frost/Nixon"); both were superb. So was Craftbar, owned by top chef--and one of the stars of TV's Top Chef, Tom Collichio . Its a casual jewel of a spot. And, just around the corner from where we were staying, we discovered a new restaurant, Caf Cluny, open from breakfast through dinner. Look for a hostess named Coco. We also loved two Italian places, Gusto, just around the bend from Cluny, on Greenwich St., and BellaVitae, in the South Village.
For a meeting with a couple of fellow Rolling Stone alumnus (who are planning a reunion in San Francisco in September), I went to a Burmese spot, Caf Mingala....
Supervisor Ed Jew gets into trouble; our Ben Fong-Torres gets into People magazine.
One of the biggest political stories in San Francisco is also one of the saddest especially for Asian Americans.
The subject is Ed Jew , who was elected late last year to the city's Board of Supervisors and is its lone Asian American member. He beat out two strong fellow Asian Americans in the district election, and represents the Sunset District, which includes, among other mini-communities, the so-called Second Chinatown, centered on Clement Street.
The problem is, Jew, who is also one of the Board's most conservative members, is required to live in the district he represents, and, it appears, he does not. And if he doesn't, then he's not qualified to have run for his office, or to occupy it. Investigations by the City Attorney and the District Attorney have resulted in reports that Jew has failed to provide proof that he lives in a house, owned by his father, in the district. Jew's wife and children live out of town, in the suburb of Burlingame, and Jew operates a flower shop in Chinatown. Investigators, checking utility bills and talking with neighbors and mail carriers, believe that he has been living in Burlingame since 2003. (However, they say, Jew used that address for voting in recent years, and stated that he lived there when he filed his candidacy papers last year. That would be a violation of election laws.) Jew has claimed that he splits his time among all three locations. And when a look at water bills for the Sunset residence showed almost no usage, he claimed that he showered at his flower shop. Responding to reports that numerous neighbors said they hadn't seen him at the house in years, he said that he was often out attending to his supervisorial duties.
Like his story about showering in his flower shop, it doesn't wash. But that's not even Jew's main problem. The questions about his residence began with an FBI investigation into...
Ben gets tired of shock talk and picks up an Emmy.
JV and Elvis , who hosted the raunchy Dog House morning show in the San Francisco area before getting fired, moved their act to New York early last year. Now, after a crank call to a Chinese restaurant generated protests from the OCA (Organization of Chinese Americans) and other groups, theyve been fired again.
Before that happened, I wrote about the incident in my radio column (Radio Waves), which runs every other Sunday in the S.F. Chronicle. To save you a trip to sfgate.com, where all my columns are archived, here it is:
CHINESE TAKEOUT: After JV and Elvis (Jeff Vandergrift and Dan Lay ) got suspended from their station, WFNY in New York, for a prank call to a Chinese restaurant, I got some calls of my own, from local radio and television stations, asking for comment. It was partly because of the timing. The stunt, in which JV harassed several restaurant employees with racist and sexist remarks and taunts, took place right after the Don Imus implosion. It was partly because of the local angle. JV and Elvis did the morning show on KYLD (Wild 94.9) until they were fired in April, 2005; they re-emerged later that year on CBS Radios new talk station KIFR (Free FM), where they held down the morning slot while the station waited for the Adam Carolla show to hit the air. They then took their act to KIFRs sister station in Manhattan, to take the slot following Corollas.
While they were here, they told me theyd matured beyond hip-hop and its audience. We want to expand that, Vandergrift said. This is the type of format thats more meant for us. Its open, and were free to talk about everything.
We all know what everything means these days. From Michael Savage and Tom Leykis to Howard Stern and Imus, from politics to porn, there are no holds barred, except for certain words still verboten to the FCC.

AC's Ben Fong-Torres meets Bill Clinton and remembers Don Ho.
It was an offer that doesnt come around every day, or even every Administration. Sing Elvis with our band, and maybe Bill Clinton will join in on saxophone.
I, of course, said Yes. Thank you. Thank you very much.
The band is the Eyewitness Blues Band, a collection of anchors, reporters and videographers from KCBS, the all-news radio station here in San Francisco, and CBS 5, its sister TV station. Since forming late last year for a story one of them did about a music school, theyve played company parties and a couple of small gigs.
Now, they had a big one. KCBS was producing Health Etc., an all-day expo at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, on April 14th. Former president Clinton had signed on as keynote speaker. And, somehow, the band got booked to play before and after the speech.
Clinton, an Elvis fan from his youth, famously played the sax on Heartbreak Hotel on Arsenio Halls late-night show in 1992, when then-Gov. Clinton was a presidential candidate. It made perfect sense to think that, 15 years later, hed want to pick up the horn again.
So, when Stan Bunger, the KCBS morning co-anchor (and guitarist) called to tell me about the group, and learned that Ive sung Elvis songs with bands here and there, he asked if I knew Heartbreak Hotel. I didnt, but, hey, its not exactly Shakespeare. I agreed to do Elvis and another song the band knew, Johnny Cashs Ring of Fire. The bands regular lead singer, CBS5 reporter and part-time anchor, Joe Vazquez, specializes in blues and R&B oldies like Midnight Hour and Rock Me Baby, while Melissa Culross, a KCBS reporter/anchor, does Different Drum and Band of Gold. Mike Sugerman, a reporter on both KCBS and CBS5, plays guitar, writes parody lyrics and growls his way through Eyewitness Blues, a song that pokes fun at people in the news. Led by videographer Patrick Sedillo (late of the Arizona-based alt-rock band, the...
Ben on the Fangs and their AsianWeek publication of Kenneth Eng's 'Why I Hate Blacks' column. An apology is not enough.
Ben then joins the 'You Tube' video generation and shares behind the scenes clips of his fun prepping for and co-hosting the San Francisco Chinese New Year Parade broadcast on KTVU. Plus a session with The Doors' Ray Manzarek.
Fun & Games with a Videocam And a Multimedia Montage Site
BUT FIRST: Before the fun and games, do take a look at my colleague Bill Wong's essay on the whole controversy at AsianWeek, a paper that shouldve known better, but didnt.
As a long-time reporter and editor myself, I will add this: I agree with those who believe that higher-ups at the weekly wanted to stir up the pot. When youre a national publication, a self-proclaimed Voice of the Asian American Community, and are wallowing with a circulation of fewer than 50,000, it makes sense that you want to do somethingespecially when newspapers with ten times that circulation figure are fighting new media, losing readers and ads, and slashing budgets.
AsianWeek dismissed the writer of the offensive essay, Kenneth Eng. But until Ted Fang, the front man whos been doing all the apologizing, takes real action and fires editor Samson Wong and/or whoever was responsible for allowing the column to be published, Ill assume that hes not all that sorry about the publicity (albeit negative) that his paper has generated. The Fangs know, as well as anyone, that theres really no such thing as bad publicity. Just spell their name right.
P.S. Although the paper ran a long (but unsigned) statement of apology on February 28, as of March 6, its Web site was still carrying Engs previous work, including a column titled Proof That Whites Inherently Hate Us.

ADIHEX to give visitors chance to see forward-looking and futuristic developments in equestrian field.
ABU DHABI - Equestrianism is not only one of the oldest and noblest of pursuits, but also one of the fastest-growing. From Argentina, where pato, played on horseback and combining elements of polo and basketball, is the national sport, to the rediscovery and breeding of the ancient Caspian horse, and the burgeoning attraction of vaulting in the north-west United States, equestrian events of all types are increasing in popularity around the world. In the UK, for example, the sport enjoys such popularity that an estimated 43 percent of households (11 million) have a household member with some form of interest in equestrianism (including racing)*, and the equestrian sector is the largest sporting employer in the UK**.
In the UAE, horses play a special role. The Emirates Equestrian Federation was established in 1992 – under the Chairmanship of His Excellency Dr. Sheikh Sultan bin Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Member of the Executive Council – and in 1996, in Kansas, USA, UAE riders participated for the first time in a World Championship endurance event. Just two years later, the UAE hosted the World Championship endurance event which attracted a record 162 competitors. Polo –'the sport of kings' – is rapidly becoming more popular with both participants and spectators in the country.
Moreover, the Arabian horse have historically dominated the discipline of endurance riding. Yet in tandem with celebrating these traditions, ADIHEX will give visitors the chance to see forward-looking and futuristic developments in the equestrian field – a celebration of the past, present and future of riding, driving or vaulting with horses, and the use of horses for practical working purposes, transportation, recreational activities, artistic or cultural exercises, and competitive sport.
The increasing popularity of equestrianism is evidenced by the greater number of exhibitors at the ninth edition of ADIHEX (Abu Dhabi International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition), taking place at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) from 14th to 17th September. Among those exhibiting is Al Khail Equestrian Equipment, suppliers of "everything from horse equipment to stable equipments and feed supplements," in the words of Derick Samson, Veternarian at the company.
Samson says that the growing popularity of equestrian activities in the UAE has led not only to the import of equipment such as the SATO Tread Mill and Horse Walker Machine, which can be used to analyze poor performance in horses and prescribe remedial action, but also to products that have been developed especially for the country: "Our products on the supplements side are tailor-made for the UAE, since we bring doctors to conduct research on the country's environment and weather before we actually develop the product. Our products include HBA supplements, complete vitamin minerals and many others, and we are in most cases the exclusive distributor."
Samson says that the increasing prominence of equestrianism is driving new trends in the industry: "Clients are increasingly looking for equipments that help in pampering their horse. For example, we now offer horse spa machines, that are becoming very popular, and they help to relax the tendons of the horse."
The long, proud history of equestrianism will be represented fully at the stand of Sorrell Studios, where the company's proprietor and artist, Kenna bint Mohamed Al-Sayed Al-Hashami, will be present. Ms Al-Sayed, whose artwork has been included in the past five American Saddlebred Museum's Annual Art Auctions, as well as being juried into the Ex Arte Equinus 4 International Equine Art Competition, will show and sell her work at the Sorrel Studios LLC stand at ADIHEX, located at H8 – 4.
Ms Al-Sayed is a member of the International Equine Artists group and a devoted horse rider who has been riding for over twenty years. Her experience around horses has helped to give her extensive knowledge of equine movement, reactions, and the intricacies of tack associated with various disciplines of riding. By staying in touch with the equestrian world, her art reflects different breeds of horses, riding styles, tack and training methods accurately.
Ms Al-Sayed believes that art is one area where equestrianism is under-represented and under-recognized: "I would like to think that equestrian art will start gaining respect within the art world. As of now, art that is realistic in depicting animals (in this case, horses) is not thought of as 'high art' and is usually harder to get accepted into prestigious art competitions. There are a number of groups and competitions that are just for equine artists and many of the artists competing in them are world class – it would be nice to see our subject matter receiving more attention. I would also love to see realism as a genre undergo a renaissance within the art world and with the public. All artworks are valid and deserve attention as they are a means of expression; it just seems there has been a trend for only modern abstract works to be constantly revered, yet there are many artists working with neo classical and photorealism techniques that could use more publicity, in my opinion."

From July to September 1925, she participated in the U.S. Fleet's goodwill cruise to Australia and New Zealand, which demonstrated to these allies, and to the Japanese, US ability to make a self-supported cruise to a distance equal to that to Japan. Modernized at Norfolk Naval Shipyard between August 1927 and January 1930, Nevada served in the Pacific Fleet for the next decade.

In the difficult economic times we find ourselves, the Benaki Museum is called upon to carry out its mission as a contemporary cultural institution conscientiously, professionally and with financial self-sufficiency, that will allow it not only to survive, but also to create conditions that will ensure the spiritual lift we all need so much at this time.
The Museum has always received the unreserved assistance of those, who recognise the quality of the work it carries out, those who trust the institution and those who love the Museum.
At this crucial point it has found welcome support for its endeavours from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.
Since January 2012 the Stavros Niarchos Foundation, above and beyond its ongoing donations throughout the world, has developed initiatives against the economic crisis as its contribution to deal with the consequences of that crisis in Greece. Ensuring access, in other words providing the public at large with the capacity to participate equally and actively in the experiences Art provides, is a priority throughout all the fields in which the Foundation is active. The idea of reinforcing access is what motivated the Foundation to support the Benaki Museum.
Specifically, the Foundation is providing support to the Benaki Museum in order to bolster its operations, and also to provide one year of free entrance, once a week, for all four Museum buildings: The Central Building (1 Koumbari St.), the Piraeus Street Annexe, the Museum of Islamic Art and the Nikos Hadjikyriakos-Ghika Gallery.
Free entrance will be in effect every Thursday from July 15th, 2013 and will have last for one year.

I absolutely love these beautiful and unique cat figures and statues created from artists around the world. I was really surprised to find these cat figures and statues are so affordable, as most of these felines are hand carved from wood and hand painted. The artist captured the classic cat features with fine details from the top of the cats head to the tip of its tail. You won't find these types of unique cat figures from anywhere else but Novica.
These cat sculptures are a must have for cat lovers and will be a treasured cat collectible. Well, I've rambled on enough about these awesome cat and kitten figures. Have fun browsing through this selection of beautiful, adorable and even funny kitty cats.
Be sure to visit Novica for a complete line of cat merchandise including cat figurines, cat art & pictures, cat decor, cat jewelry and more.
3 Comments to "Unique Cat Figures and Statues"
Wow, these are ultimate cat figures and statues. I purchase cat figures often and love these gorgeous statues and figures. I love the third cat figurine - 'Kitty's Sweet Dreams' Wood Cat Statuette. Think it will look great in my bed room! Thanks for sharing these awesome cat figures and statues.
I love these. I collect cat figurines and haven't seen these before. I can't believe they are hand carved and painted; the price is great for such craftsmanship. I can't imagine how long it must take to create such a work of art. I can't decide which cat figure I like the best; the Snoozing Tuxedo Cat Wood Cat figure is really nice. What a tough decision.

Tower Rock
Tower Rock was a landmark for native tribes, the Corps of Discovery, fur trappers, traders and many more that followed in their footsteps.
The 400-foot high igneous rock formation lies in a 140-acre site along the stretch of the Missouri River. Now a state park, visitors can learn about the geology and history of the site with five interpretive panels located at the trail head. The trail to the base of the saddle is maintained for a quarter-mile.
Tower Rock State Park is a day use only park.
Many Native American tribes used the rock as a landmark when they were entering and leaving the rich buffalo grounds of today's north central Montana.
Captain Meriwether Lewis noted in his journal "an Indian road enters the mountain at the same place with the river on the Stard side and continues along it's border under the steep clifts." Lewis also wrote, "At this place there is a large rock of 400 feet high wich stands immediately in the gap which the Missouri makes on it's passage from the mountains... This rock I called the tower. It may be ascended with some difficulty nearly to it's summit and from it there is a most pleasing view of the country we are now about to leave. From it I saw that evening immense herds of buffaloe in the plains below." Meriwether Lewis, July 16, 1805
