In fact, the rest of the book is like a collection of justifiably-rejected magazine articles strung together.
In this book, Jane Jacobs outlines five aspects of society today that, if unchecked, could lead us to a new Dark Age such as the one the Roman Empire experienced.
I'm deffinately not one of those, but at least it inspired me to look into many of the ideas and perhaps contribute some small thing.
it is a well written book. I especially liked it because coincidentally
I live in Toronto and a good portion of the book has something

Jane Jacob's insight regarding fundamental shifts in social forces in the United States over the last sixty years is nothing short of incredible. Read morePublished on May 22, 2012 by James W. Singleton

interesting view of the world, history and the future.....the book could have been 75% short and still made the pointsPublished on March 15, 2011 by Richard H. Phillips
Few write quite as well as Ms. Jacobs on social and urban issues. She takes a social subject, tosses it into a scientific vat and spurts out a work of art! Read morePublished on February 18, 2011 by T. Kepler
Another case where a good publisher says, "you have to have a more grabbing title." Good thoughtful book with potential trends for the future, but weak forcasting of big future... Read morePublished on November 15, 2010 by Brunoski
A bizarre mishmash of half-baked non-ideas. Jacobs clearly hates the Romans yet the Dark Ages we commonly refer to refers to the period after their downfall. Read morePublished on May 15, 2010 by S. A. Labbe

Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCO)
Cisco Systems creates Internet Protocol-based routers and switches that move data, voice, and video packets across networks.
Job cuts are unfortunate, but occasionally necessary to strengthen the company. They do not necessarily mean that the company is performing poorly, only that they're trying to manage costs. This was a good move for CSCO, and the company most certainly did not lose 10% of its value by cutting costs. They continue to be a market leader, and this is a good price to get in at.

In mild cases of
benign prostatic hyperplasia
(BPH), no treatment is necessary. In many cases, men with BPH eventually request medical intervention. The goals of treatment are to allow urine to pass easily, to prevent urine retention, and to reduce the risk of
urinary infection
The treatment and management of BPH may involve medicine or surgery. Medicine, which is used for less advanced cases, may either relax the bladder outlet valve or shrink the prostate by hormonal manipulation. Surgery removes the obstruction. There are several methods available.
Treatment involves the following:

NTSB Identification:
Accident occurred Thursday, July 25, 2002 in Prince George, Canada
Aircraft: Bell 206B, registration: N59584
Injuries: 1 Uninjured.
This is preliminary information, subject to change, and may contain errors. The foreign authority was the source of this information.
On July 25, 2002, approximately 10:30 Pacific daylight time, a Bell 206B rotorcraft, N59584, registered to/operated by Croman Corporation, and being flown by a commercial pilot sustained substantial damage when the rotorcraft's tail rotor contacted a fueling truck while hovering to land approximately 35 nautical miles southeast of Prince George, British Columbia, Canada. The pilot was uninjured and there was no fire or ground injuries. Meteorological conditions at the accident site were not reported and no flight plan had been filed. The flight, which was engaged in heli-logging, was operated under 14 (US) CFR 133, and originated from the fueling site where the accident occurred.
TheTransportation Safety Board of Canada issued a preliminary notification of the accident and reported that the rotorcraft was returning from a logging operation to refuel and had just dropped the long-line while in a 45-foot hover. The pilot then maneuvered the rotorcraft toward the landing site and while hovering the rotorcraft shifted backward about 15 feet. The pilot heard and felt a "buzzing" and attempted to pull up but the rotorcraft began to rotate. The pilot then lowered collective and executed a hard landing. Post-crash examination revealed the tail rotor had impacted a refueling truck.
This report is for information purposes only. The investigation is under the jurisdiction of the Government of Canada. Any further information pertaining to this accident may be obtained from:

Master Tesfatsion is the Star Tribune's digital Vikings writer. He is a 2013 graduate of Arizona State and worked for mlb.com before arriving in Minneapolis. Follow him at @masterstrib.
A day after trading receiver Percy Harvin to Seattle, the Vikings have made their first move toward replenishing their receiving corps. It comes by way of re-signing Jerome Simpson to a one-year deal, according to an NFL source.
Salary figures for the deal are not yet known. But the Vikings had been intent on giving Simpson a second chance to prove himself if they could see eye-to-eye on contract details.
Apparently, they have with Simpson's return assuring quarterback Christian Ponder at least some continuity with his receiving corps. After Monday's blockbuster trade, Ponder was left with only two receivers who he had completed passes to: Jarius Wright and Stephen Burton.
Now Simpson is back in the fold and looking to rediscover top form in an offense that plans to give him significant opportunity to do so.
By all accounts, the Vikings' 2012 experiment with Simpson was a disappointment. After signing the athletic receiver to a one-year deal worth approximately $2 million last April, the Vikings had high hopes that Simpson would jell quickly with Ponder and provide the deep threat and vertical speed that would keep defenses honest.
Instead ...
The 2012 season totals: 26 catches, 274 yards, zero touchdowns.
So why would the Vikings put their hand back on that stove after apparently being burned by the Simpson signing last year?
Because on a one-year deal, Simpson again is in a prove-it situation. It's low risk for the Vikings with a guy who already has familiarity with both Ponder and the offensive system of coordinator Bill Musgrave. Furthermore, General Manager Rick Spielman and coach Leslie Frazier seem convinced that Simpson's 2012 struggles were greatly exacerbated by his back troubles, which for a stretch, made it difficult for Simpson to push off and reach top speed when running routes. But with Simpson's back problems no longer a concern, there's a belief he can again fulfill his potential.
That, the Vikings promise, was evidenced in Simpson's debut with the team when he contributed four catches for 50 yards in a Week 4 win in Detroit. Simpson seemed closer to top form again in December aiding the Vikings' charge into the NFC playoffs with 11 catches for 98 yards in the final three wins.
Calvin Johnson numbers they weren't. But in an offense that relies so heavily on MVP running back Adrian Peterson, that modest production was cause for celebration. It gave the Vikings at least some potency in the passing game.
That gave Spielman hope. And he noted back in January that Simpson "has the potential to really thrive if we were able to get something done with him."
The deal is now done.

The Bluefish HTML editor and integrated IDE
The Bluefish HTML editor is useful for large-scale Web projects and also smaller programming projects. Syntax highlighting and code blocks help developers build projects efficiently.
Building complex Web projects with CGI support can quickly become confusing. An HTML editor such as Bluefish [1], with support for project management and the more popular scripting languages, helps you keep track. The current version 1.01 gives users a number of interesting new features. The program is not officially part of the Gnome project, but it is often used in Gnome environments. Bluefish is based on the GTK toolkit and requires GTK version 2.0 or newer. libpcre version 3.0 or later provides useful syntax highlighting, however, the spellchecker, which is based on Aspell, is optional.

Al Zmyslowski, senior vice president of engineering at Fujitsu Computer Systems, holds a prototype of the company's e-paper technology at a meeting with reporters in Fujitsu's Sunnyvale, Calif., offices. The flexible 320-by-240-pixel color display uses liquid crystal technology but consumes no power once an image is loaded. The company believes it will be useful initially for displaying prices in stores and schedules in train stations or airports. The company has larger prototypes, the size of a regular sheet of paper, as well, Zmyslowsky said.

Pure Color Pigment Ink is a multi-purpose pigment craft ink that works on a variety of surfaces.
Posted by Gayatri Murali on 1st Sep 2014
I recently wanted white pigment inks and bought a couple of them including this one. I have previously used other brands but Wplus9 white pigment ink is the best I have known.
Posted by Trell Doxie on 5th Jun 2014
I have tried quite a few white pigment inks and this one takes the cake. It's simply the best.
Posted by Leigh Penner on 21st Apr 2014
This ink is so fabulous! It's rich and creamy and covers so well! In my opinion, it is the best white ink I've ever used!
Posted by Cindy Martinez on 9th Jul 2013

For half a century, the United States has treated Cuba and Hawai'i as polar opposites: despised nation and beloved state. But for more than a century before the Cuban revolution and Hawaiian statehood of 1959, Cuba and Hawai'i figured as twin objects of U.S. imperial desire and as possessions whose tropical island locales might support all manner of fantasy fulfillment�cultural, financial, and geopolitical.
Using travel and tourism as sites where the pleasures of imperialism met the politics of empire, Christine Skwiot untangles the histories of Cuba and Hawai'i as integral parts of the Union and keys to U.S. global power, as occupied territories with violent pasts, and as fantasy islands ripe with seduction and reward. Grounded in a wide array of primary materials that range from government sources and tourist industry records to promotional items and travel narratives, The Purposes of Paradise explores the ways travel and tourism shaped U.S. imperialism in Cuba and Hawai'i. More broadly, Skwiot's comparative approach underscores continuity, as well as change, in U.S. imperial thought and practice across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Comparing the relationships of Cuba and Hawai'i with the United States, Skwiot argues, offers a way to revisit assumptions about formal versus informal empire, territorial versus commercial imperialism, and direct versus indirect rule.
Christine Skwiot is Associate Professor of History at Georgia State University.

About This Data
ProPublica obtained prescribing data from Medicare's prescription drug benefit, known as Part D, under the Freedom of Information Act. The data for 2011 includes nearly 1.2 billion prescriptions written by 1.6 million doctors, nurses and other providers. This database lists about 364,000 of those providers who wrote 50 or more prescriptions for at least one drug that year. About three-fourths went to patients 65 and older; the rest were for disabled patients. Methodology »
- No comparisons are shown if 10 or fewer prescribers in the state share this specialty.
- The list of top drugs includes only those for which this provider wrote 50 or more prescriptions, but all prescriptions are counted in the summary totals at the top.
- The calculation of "Risky Drugs to Seniors" does not include drugs for which a provider wrote 11 or fewer prescriptions because Medicare redacted the information to protect patient privacy.
- Comparisons do not take into account the medical conditions of patients. Medications for certain conditions do not have generic alternatives, so patients would receive more expensive brand name drugs.
- This provider's address and specialty information was last updated on Oct. 16, 2012.
- Comparisons are based on each provider's current address, not necessarily where he or she worked during the time period covered in this database.
Incorrect Info?
If you are a provider and you believe your address is incorrect, check the listing you created on the National Provider Identifier registry. If you change your listing, send a note to firstname.lastname@example.com and we will update your information. If you have other questions about this data, send a note to email@example.com.

"To Kill the Indian in the Child": 100 Years of Genocide in North America
A friend of mine has entered Microsoft and Lenovo's competition 'Name Your Dream Assignment' and needs your votes…. have a read, and click the link if you are up for supporting his project idea.
His assignment is as follows:
"To Kill the Indian in the Child"
100 Years of Genocide in North America
"To document Native North American survivors of genocide who, as children, were forcibly taken from their families and sent to abusive government boarding schools to have their culture destroyed as a "final solution" to the Indian problem.
"From the 1870s through the 1970s the Governments of the U.S. and Canada embarked on a program to eliminate Indian culture and language by rounding up native children and shipping them to boarding schools where they were forbidden to speak their language and forced to learn the white man's ways.
……"On my Dream Assignment, I would visit pre-selected Indian reservations in the U.S. and Canada, shoot portraits of the survivors and interview them about their experiences and how their lives were impacted then and to this day. I would also document some of the old school buildings that still exist. The images, along with relevant excerpts from survivors' commentary, would be published as a book and prints for a traveling exhibit would also be prepared."
Here's how to vote:
1. Click here where you can read the complete Dream Assignment proposal. There's a voting icon to the left– click on PIC IT.
2. You'll then be asked to register –which takes only a minute or so. This to prevent multiple votes by the same person. If you do not want to receive promotional material from the sponsor, just leave the "Communication" box unchecked.
3. Within a few minutes after registering, you'll get an email with a URL. Click it and you'll be taken to a log-in page.
4. After logging in, you'll find yourself at the project page again. Once there, click on PIC IT and your vote will be cast.
My friend is counting on your votes to give this project a chance –it must be voted into the Top 20 to be considered.
The deadline is April 3rd!
On behalf of AB, thanks for reading!

Rémi Durand introduces Archos TV Portation
Posted by Charbax on April 23rd, 2008
Archos products marketing manager Rémi Durand shows us how the new TV Portation plugin works. It enables you to stream live video from your TV, through an Archos TV+, 605 WiFi or 705 WiFi, through the Internet or on your local network, to another Archos 605 WiFi, 705 WiFi, or on any Windows Mobile smartphone (later there may also be support for Symbian) or on a laptop or PC. This is basically the Archos way to do the Slingbox, AMD Live or Sony TV Anywhere feature. You can thus take your Satellite, cable, DVB-T or any other TV channels that you own or have at your home, and then bring them with you all over the world. The TV Portation uploads the live TV feed at QVGA resolution starting at 300kbit/s, and it can go up to 1mbit/s for now if you have a fast upload connection at your home. The plugin is free with the TV+ but costs $40/€40 to install the server side of the software on an Archos 605 WiFi or 705 WiFi. The client side of the software to install on a 605 WiFi, 705 WiFi, TV+, on a Windows Mobile smartphone or on a Windows XP/Vista computer is free.
HD quality: See the video in HD quality (3500kbit/s, 1280×720, DivX, 214mb)
Flash versions: Blip, Dailymotion, Google, Metacafe, Putfile, Revver, Sumo, Vimeo, Vsocial, Youtube

Daffodil Day 2014
Daffodil day date 2014 is on Friday 22nd August.
4th Friday of August of every year is observed as Daffodil Day. It's a day that gives hope for a brighter and cancer free future not only for us but also for our friends, family and others. Daffodil Day began in the year 1957 and was led by the Irish Cancer Society. This day is said to be the annual flagship for the cancer's society. It is also one of the most important days for the fundraising and awareness campaigns. Daffodil Day also provides an opportunity to everyone to raise the awareness about the cancer in the society.
Daffodil is one of the first flowers to blossoms out in spring and its bright yellows gives us a reminder of joy and that a new season has arrived. It also represents hope of life and an inspiration for the people who are suffering from cancer. It resembles new life and vital growth. Thus in the year 2001 Daffodil became the logo of the Irish Cancer Society. Most of the Cancer Charity institutions use the symbol of Daffodil as a symbol of hope for all who have been affected by cancer whether directly or indirectly.
Daffodil Day is one of the largest fundraising even ever hosted for cancer patients. On this auspicious day everyone is invited to hold hands together and stand united for the fight against cancer. All should get together and celebrate the spirit of those patients who have survived life and won the battle against cancer and also of their families who have passed out through the toughest phase of their lives. The specialist doctors who are helping the patients to fight against cancer tries and bring out hope and goodwill to ones who have pass through this disease on Daffodil Day.
This day is bright and positive to support the ones who have been touched by the most impeccable disease cancer. On Daffodil Day we can focus on the thought that one day there will be cancer free future. It is held every year in almost all the countries and with lots of special events and activities held it raises the fund for the research of cancer prevention and cure.
On this day people give fresh daffodil flowers to their near and dear ones which definitely resembles their love and hope for their good health. It is more than just giving beautiful flowers; it is an opportunity given to everyone to create a world of less cancer deaths and more birthdays. A world where cancer could not steal one's beloved from anyone.
Over the years some outstanding events have been held on Daffodil Day. All have their own way to rekindle the hope of life on this special day. Some sent fresh daffodil flowers to their beloved ones, some raise the fund by selling these flowers and while some purchase the Daffodil Day merchandise in order to make some donation to the Cancer Charity. All have different ways but the purpose is same is to raise the funds for the cancer patients and bring in hope for new life, vitality & growth.

like anyone really wants to watch football now. i'm taking a Vacation right around Chris mas time. don't really care to watch the Vikings fight out a celler spot with Detroit during the holidays

Firechild, Remember the year the Vikings went 15-1. I didn't have TV at home then, so I didn't watch many games. The first game I saw completely was their playoff loss to Atlanta. I kind of wish I had watched more of them that year. One of Stu Voigt's year's I saw EVERY play. Voigt only dropped ONE ball he got his hand on that year!

of course i remember the 1998 -15-1 season, i watched every game. just wake me up once next August rolls around, going to start working on Sundays too, just so i'm away from football. i have no desire to watch a team that only gives 70 percent. hopefully by next August we have Brian B. or Gruden running the show, instead of the circus trainer, chilly

KeyNote has long been regarded as one of the best outliners available but all development work has now stopped. The author Marek Jedlinski has outlined why in a polite and graceful exit note but I suspect the underlying reason is the demanding and ungrateful attitude of some freeware consumers. This is a message I hear repeatedly from freeware developers. Programmer David Brown summed it up nicely in a recent email: "I've put hundreds of hours of my own time into this utility and all I get is abusive letters saying why doesn't it do this or do that or how the program is just junk or rubbish. I've had enough – they can go write their own programs." I concur. Every day I get rude and hostile email about the programs I recommend on my "46 Best-ever Freeware" list. It's water off a ducks back to me but I sure understand how the program developers must feel.

Vietnam anti-China activists mark 1979 border war
Published on Feb 16, 2014 2:26 PM
HANOI (AFP) - Vietnamese activists on Sunday marked the 35th anniversary of a bloody border war with China, chanting slogans, patriotic songs and laying flowers at a temple in central Hanoi.
The two communist countries are locked in long-standing territorial disputes over the Paracel and Spratly islands, and often trade diplomatic barbs over oil exploration and fishing rights in the contested waters.
Beijing's increasingly assertive stance in the South China Sea has stoked public anger in Vietnam and given way to rare protests in the authoritarian country - which are sometimes allowed to go ahead and other times forcefully broken up.
China invaded Vietnam's northernmost provinces in February 1979, angered by Vietnam's ouster of the Beijing-backed Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia.

By JEFF MEZYDLO
(AP) -- San Diego appears to be the ideal place for manager Rick Renteria, Anthony Rizzo and the rest of the Chicago Cubs to continue their recent hot streak.
Looking to win two straight on the road for the second time this season, the Cubs try to hand the Padres a season-high fifth consecutive defeat Friday night.
Rizzo hit a two-run homer against his former team and Jake Arrieta pitched six strong innings as Chicago (17-28) won 5-1 on Thursday. The victory came in Renteria's return to San Diego, where he spent a decade coaching in the Padres organization.
"It was good to see Rick on the other side," said San Diego's Dave Roberts, who managed the team while Bud Black attended his daughter's college graduation. "He seemed in good spirits."
Though the Cubs have the third-worst record in the majors and are 7-15 on the road, they've won four of five overall.
Rizzo hit .141 with a home run, nine RBIs and 46 strikeouts in 49 games for the Padres during his first major league season in 2011. Traded to the Cubs in January 2012, Rizzo went 1 for 16 in his first four games against San Diego but is batting .379 his last seven.
"His approach is pretty solid," Renteria said of Rizzo, who had two hits after going 0 for 9 in the previous three games.
Teammate Junior Lake has batted .378 with nine RBIs in his last nine contests. He's 7 for 20 (.350) in four career games at Petco Park.
The Cubs hand the ball to Edwin Jackson (3-3, 3.98 ERA), who is 0-4 with a 5.85 ERA in eight career starts against the Padres and posted a 10.97 ERA in two matchups with them in 2013.
However, the right-hander has gone 1-1 with a 1.80 ERA in three May starts. He allowed four hits and struck out 11 in seven innings of a 3-0 victory over Milwaukee on Saturday.
"You just think about executing pitches," Jackson told the Cubs' official website. "You just continue to work hard and continue to battle. It's a long season. You just don't want to give in."
Yonder Alonso is 6 for 12 with two doubles and a home run versus Jackson, while Jedd Gyorko is 4 for 6 with one of each against him.
Those two combined to go 1 for 8 on Thursday for the Padres (21-27), who have totaled four runs in the last three games. Alonso has gone 1 for 16 in the last four contests.
After scheduled starter Robbie Erlin was placed on the disabled list Thursday with elbow soreness, long reliever Tim Stauffer (1-0, 2.41) will make his first start since May 14, 2012. The right-hander has appeared in 12 games this season.
Stauffer, who last started against the Cubs in 2011, is 0-2 with a 2.37 ERA in three such outings. The Padres were shut out in all of those, the last two by 1-0 scores.
Rizzo and Lake are a combined 0 for 3 with two strikeouts against Stauffer.
Second in the majors with a .615 slugging percentage, the Padres' Seth Smith is 21 for 42 with two home runs and eight RBIs in his last 11 at San Diego.
He's 2 for 4 against Jackson.

text: Gay Writer on Duck Dynasty: Has GLAAD Reached Its 'Expiration Date?' Print article Send a Tip by Warner Todd Huston 29 Dec 2013 post a comment In a recent piece for Time, Brandon Ambrosino offered an interesting observation concerning the recent imbroglio between the gay advocacy group GLAAD and the A&E cable network. In his piece, Ambrosino wondered aloud if GLAAD had reached its "expiration date." Ambrosino, a gay writer from Baltimore, was conscientious to point out that when it was first founded in 1985, GLAAD did good work for the gay and lesbian community by holding the media to inclusive standards and aiding in the normalization of gays in our society. However, with the decision by A&E to ignore GLAAD's demands that Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson be fired, the Time columnist wondered if GLAAD had lost its once formidable powers to force its will on businesses. Ambosino was not shocked that a family of Christians from Louisiana had strict, Biblically based ideas about homosexuality, nor was he surprised that A&E had a "kneejerk response" to GLAAD's early demands. What did surprise him was that, in the long run, A&E ignored GLAAD's demands and reinstated Phil Robertson to his reality TV show. "A few years ago, I couldn't imagine a network disregarding GLAAD's recommendations. A&E is certainly setting a precedent -- which makes me wonder about where we are today with queer politics," Ambrosino wrote. Could GLAAD be superfluous now? That was Ambrosino's thought provoking question. The writer said, "as America edges closer and closer to unqualified and full inclusion of LGBT persons, I wonder if an organization whose raison d'etre is to find and shame instances of discrimination isn't just a bit archaic." As he ended his editorial, Ambrosino fully expounded on his premise that GLAAD was fast coming to the end of its outsized powers. If our goal is to progress beyond defamation against LGBT persons, then that means GLAAD has a sell-by date. To put it in a different, albeit cheekier way: Defamation is good for GLAAD's business. To bankrupt our society of LGBT defamation would certainly put GLAAD out of work. It's hard for me to imagine I'm the only one who's wondered about this. In fact, GLAAD's recent name-change only confirms that their leadership has been reexamining and revising their purposes moving forward. Again, I'm not suggesting our world doesn't need GLAAD: There certainly is a place for them. But A&E's latest reversal should make us question what exactly that place is." One might say the same about other advocacy groups; there certainly is a sell-by date for all of them. After all, do we still have a large and powerful Women's Suffragist group out there? Where are the Prohibitionists? They are all history now. As Ambrosino might say, they've reached their "expiration date."

Published: April 23, 2014
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You need to take some time out to explore the deeper mysteries of snuggling, cuddling, and nuzzling. In my opinion, that is your sacred duty. It's your raison d'etre, your ne plus ultra, your sine qua non. You've got to nurture your somatic wisdom with what we in the consciousness industry refer to as yummy warm fuzzy wonder love. At the very least, you should engage in some prolonged hugging with a creature you feel close to. Tender physical touch isn't just a luxury; it's a necessity.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your body contains about four octillion atoms. That's four with 27 zeroes after it. Believe it or not, 200 billion of that total were once inside the body of Martin Luther King, Jr. For that matter, an average of 200 billion atoms of everyone who has ever lived and died is part of you. I am not making this up. As far as your immediate future is concerned, Pisces, I'm particularly interested in that legacy from King. If any of his skills as a great communicator are alive within you, you will be smart to call on them. Now is a time for you to express high-minded truths in ways that heal schisms, bridge gaps and promote unity. Just proceed on the assumption that it is your job to express the truth with extra clarity, candor and grace.

2012 Volkswagen Golf Diesel 2.0L TDI 2dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbodiesel 6M)
After 15 months and 17000 miles, car still feels like new. Plenty of room for two people and very comfortable on 600-700 mile days. Fuel economy is averaging in low 40s for a highway/city mix.

I purchased this car on 01/31/2012.
The car now has 5.8K on the clock, so it's past it's first stage break-in-period.
I'm now averaging 39.7K overall in mixed driving, but can easily hit 48 MPG cruizing at 72 MPH @ just under 2K RMPs.
I can't believe how powerful it feels while still being so fuel efficient.
The shifter feels solid and well weighted, the clutch is light without being too light, and the steering is direct / tracks well. The car as a whole is vastly superior to anyother eco compact non-lux car also evident in it's simple yet top-notch interior.
For pure driving excitement the GTI wins hands down, but the TDI is a nice compromise that leaves me with no regrets.

This is the estimated average annual insurance premium being charged in your state. The premium has been determined based on annual premium data for defined coverages (liability, comprehensive and collision) from a major insurer.

Factors that will affect your rate include your age, marital status, credit history, driving record, and the garaging address of your vehicle.
