Blyton Park is a former Royal Air Force airfield located just outside of Gainsborough, Lincolnshire. Built in 1942, the airfield was used heavily during the Second World War but was used less after the early stages of the cold war. Blyton has been in existence for a long time, but has recently undergone new management and complete re-surfacing too. During early 2011, 1.5 miles of tarmac was laid featuring plenty of corners. The new circuit designs tries to ensure there is as few solid barriers and plenty and as much tarmac run-off as possible. The new high grip surface that the new owners put in place has excellent run-off and is ideal for any level of driver. In May 2011 Blyton Park Driving Centre opened for business for activities such as driver tuition and Supercar driving experiences. The new looking circuit attracted Supercar manufacturers such as Pagani and Mclaren to use the ground for testing. It is clear to see a lot of work has been put into this track and it's a very popular track to drive on. Blyton Park, Old Blyton Airfield, Kirton Road, Blyton, Gainsborough, DN21 3PE

Showcasing arguably the largest run off area of any of the tracks that we operate our experience days – you would have to do something very wrong to cause serious damage to cars at this circuit! Elvington also boasts one of the longest runways in the UK which has been adapted over the years by plenty of F1 teams for testing. Motoring press also consider Elvington a popular venue. The circuit found itself in the headlines back in September 2006 after a certain incident involving a Top Gear presenter. Originally opened as RAF Elvington, it was used as a station for the Royal Airforce that ran from the start of the Second World War until 1992. The airfield is now owned by Elvington Park Ltd. The adjacent buildings and control tower have been restored and it currently being used as the Yorkshire Air Museum that showcases many rare aircrafts and also a complete Halifax bomber. Apart from Supercar experiences, Elvington also use the track for motorcycle racing. 6th Gear have constructed a challenging but fast circuit which has proved to be a major attraction for nearly 10 years!

After 10 years of planning and nearly 2 years of construction, the doors were first opened in January 2001 and then formally opened by the Queen in May 2001. Rockingham is the first venue to be built with a banked oval since the famous Brooklands circuit closed in 1939. It was built with the intention of bringing NASCAR from the states across the pond to the UK. There is also a claim to be the fastest banked racing circuit in Europe. Tony Kanaan holds the record for the fastest lap of the oval circuit, completed in a Lola-Ford Champ car with a time of 24.719 seconds and an average speed of 215.397mph. Rockingham boasts an impressive 13 track configurations making it an extremely versatile venue hosting events for Touring cars, Rally cars, motorbikes and many others.

Castle Combe started off in 1941 as an airfield, home to RAF Castle Combe for 7 years before being decommissioned in 1948. The venue then re-opened as Castle Combe Circuit in 1950 just 18 months after the world famous Silverstone Circuit. The circuit was based on the perimeter of the old airfield and remained unchanged from the day it opened up until 1998 when two chicanes were added to the track for safety reasons. In 1997, prior to the changes to the track, a lap record was set by Nigel Greensall in his Tyrrell 022 – lapping the circuit at 130.93mph. Castle Combe have hosted a wide variety of different motorsport events over the years, with Formula 3 returning to the venue in 2001. However, this was to be short lived as a noise nuisance order was issued in 2005 meaning the venue had to reduce its noise level. With the British Formula 3 Championship and the British GT Championship exceeding these new limitations, it resulted in these events no longer being held at Castle Combe. Today, Castle Combe Circuit still host many different motorsport events ranging from championship racing to Classic car shows. Castle Combe Circuit, Castle Combe, Chippenham, Wiltshire, SN14 7EY

David Die co-authors portion of new NRC report on Deep Water Horizon
Report suggests ecosystem services approach can lead to broader, more effective response
July 19, 2013
MIAMI- July 12, 2013 --A new report entitled: 'An Ecosystem Services Approach to Assessing the Impacts of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico' was released by the National Research Council earlier this week. The 350-page document, supported by the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), focuses not only on the natural resources, but also the intangible goods and services these resources supply to people. Dubbed an "ecosystem services' view, this approach can be used to complement and/or supplement traditional government tools like the Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) to create a more comprehensive framework in which assessment and restoration decisions can be made.
The report includes several case studies to illustrate workable models of how these assessments might be performed. University of Miami (UM) Research Associate Professor and Associate Director of the Cooperative Institute for Marine & Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS) David Die was the lead author of the fisheries case study included in the report. He was selected because of his expertise in global fisheries assessment, ecosystem modeling and the Gulf of Mexico fisheries. Additionally, he served as co-author of the marine mammal case study in the report, and contributed to other sections of the report.
"The critical finding of the report is that the impacts of the Deep Water Horizon oil spill, and other potential ecological hazards, need to be evaluated in a broader context to the one mandated by the NRDA," said Die, a faculty member in UM's division of Marine Biology & Fisheries. "We need to take an ecosystem services approach, which albeit challenging, provides a more accurate framework in which to perform such critical evaluations."
Die has strong links to the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council and was the founding director of the Center of Independent Experts, a central part of the peer review process for the National Marine Fisheries Service. He is the current Rapporteur for bigeye tuna within the Tropical Tuna Working Group of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tuna and has recently been asked to serve on the international panel synthesizing the conservation status of tuna and billfish for the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.
"Our goal for the report is to add value and create a framework that will help policymakers make the most informed decisions that are not only science-based, but also economically and culturally sensitive" Die added.
CIMAS is a research institute based at the University of Miami, within the Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science. It serves as a mechanism to bring together the research resources of nine major public and private research universities in Florida and the U.S. Caribbean with those of NOAA in order to develop a Center of Excellence that is relevant to understanding the Earth's oceans and atmosphere within the context of NOAA's mission. For more information, please visit http://cimas.rsmas.miami.edu/
The University of Miami is the largest private research institution in the southeastern United States. The University's mission is to provide quality education, attract and retain outstanding students, support the faculty and their research, and build an endowment for University initiatives. Founded in the 1940's, the Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science has grown into one of the world's premier marine and atmospheric research institutions.

ExperienceI tutored in high school through the National Honor Society. Nowadays I help out friends whenever they need it. I want to be a tutor because I know how frustrating it is to not understand the material in certain classes. Because I teach swim lessons over the summer to small children, I have also learned how to be very creative and resourceful when it comes to making learning interesting. As for relevant classes I've taken, I took three years of spanish in high school and one semester at JMU. I received A's in all of those classes. I also have taken multiple history classes as well as english classes. My writing has earned me high SAT scores, an invitation to the Honors Program at JMU, and an A in the class I took in a past semester. I have also taken multiple psychology classes and a geography class. I am currently in a chemistry class, and am earning a good grade. I am in the Honors Program at JMU, I was in the National Honor Society in high school as well as the National Latin Honor Society. I am in the National Society of Collegiate Scholars as well as Sigma Alpha Lambda.
HobbiesAs far as my hobbies go, I really enjoy exercising and music. I was a competitive swimmer for eleven years of my life, so being physically active is important to me. However, I also believe that in order to be a well rounded person, I have to take care of myself emotionally as well. That is where the music comes in. I love to listen and perform music as my own form of meditation. As I have a younger brother with ADD and ADHD, I am a very patient person.

The Son That Former NFL Player Rae Carruth Tried To Kill Turns 18, Still Suffering From Permanent Brain Damage
The former wide receiver, who plotted the murder of his ex, Cherica Adams, is scheduled to be released from prison soon.
Before he was "Primetime," Deion Sanders was The Man for the Florida State Seminoles.
For his efforts, Sanders, along with 13 other former college football greats, was inducted into the 2011 College Football Hall of Fame on Tuesday. Sanders was an All-American cornerback for the Seminoles from 1985–88 before going on to a spectacular career in the NFL. Sanders, of course, went on to redefine the cornerback position in the NFL where he won Super Bowls with the San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys.
Joining Sanders in the 2011 class is former Heisman Trophy-winning running back Eddie George from Ohio State, West Virginia linebacker Darryl Talley ('79–'82), Miami defensive tackle Russell Maryland ('86–'90) and Nebraska offensive lineman Will Shields ('89–'92). In total, 14 former players and two head coaches were inducted into the hall of fame.
"It goes without saying that this year's College Football Hall of Fame class is an exceptional group of men who have forged some of the most legendary careers in the history of our sport," said Archie Manning, the current chairman of the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame and also inductee from Ole Miss.

Wider Health Coverage Plan Proposed for Md.
Friday, October 26, 2007
Gov. Martin O'Malley and Democratic legislative leaders yesterday proposed providing health insurance to 100,000 poor uninsured adults in Maryland and subsidizing small businesses that offer coverage to their employees.
The General Assembly will consider the plan, pushed by health advocates for three years, during a special legislative session that starts Monday. As state leaders prepare to raise taxes to close a $1.7 billion budget shortfall, a long-sought expansion of health-care coverage could sweeten a package that could be hard for many lawmakers to swallow.
"Despite our wealth as a state, 800,000 of our neighbors go without health care," O'Malley (D) said. But even with an expansion of Medicaid, the state-federal program for the poor, and subsidies for middle-class workers, only a portion of the 14 percent of Maryland residents without insurance would get it under the proposal.
The universal coverage pursued by Massachusetts, California and other states is a long-term goal for Maryland that will be met only "when we have a new administration" in Washington, O'Malley said.
Health care, particularly Medicaid and treatment of chronic disease, consumes about 25 percent of the state budget. Those costs could shrink if fewer uninsured people received costly care in emergency rooms, O'Malley said. Those with insurance end up paying higher premiums to cover the medical care of those without.
"We are all paying $1,000 out of our premiums to help the uninsured," said Del. Peter A. Hammen (D-Baltimore), the House health committee chairman, who with Speaker Michael E. Busch (D-Anne Arundel) led an unsuccessful effort to expand health-care coverage last winter.
Maryland offers children from poor and low-wage families some of the most generous health benefits in the country. But the state's coverage for adults ranks among the worst, limiting benefits to those earning less than half of the federal poverty rate.
Under the proposal, Medicaid would expand over four years, first covering parents with incomes of less than $20,000 for a family of three -- about 30,000 people. Then adults without children -- who now are eligible only if their income is 40 percent of the federal poverty level, or about $5,000 -- would be covered.
The state also would give insurance subsidies to employees earning less than $50,000 at firms with up to nine workers, about 5,500 companies that don't offer benefits. Another 4,000 small businesses that provide coverage also would get help from the state to prevent them from dropping it. And to encourage workers with chronic illnesses to participate in wellness programs to lower the cost of their care, the state would offer discounts on their deductibles.
The governor's office also plans to allocate $10 million to improve the quality and efficiency of care through a statewide electronic record-keeping system, which has been slow to come to Maryland. With such a system, information about patients can be readily available to doctors, who can document prescriptions and medical orders electronically. Such systems, which have been adopted by other states, can reduce errors and curb unnecessary tests.
The plan would cost about $675 million, $250 million of that in state money, health secretary John M. Colmers said. The state's contribution eventually would include revenue from the $1-a-pack increase in the cigarette tax that O'Malley has proposed to help close the deficit. Federal matching funds for Medicaid, a surplus in an existing high-risk insurance pool and a reshuffling of Maryland's practice of reimbursing hospitals for the free care they provide to the uninsured would help make up the rest of the cost. If there is no money in the budget to expand coverage as the program ramps up, it wouldn't be expanded, Colmers said.
The governor's plan is less ambitious than the bill to expand Medicaid to twice as many people that died last winter. It passed the House by a wide margin, but stalled in the Senate, where President Thomas V. Mike Miller Jr. (D-Calvert) balked at embarking on a costly new program until the state closed the budget deficit. O'Malley also had a limited appetite for such a big-ticket initiative.
Miller called yesterday's proposal more palatable because it's less costly and does not rely as heavily on the tobacco tax, believed to be a declining source of revenue as fewer people smoke. But he said an expansion of health-care coverage is unlikely to pass before the legislature approves other pieces of the governor's budget package, which includes legalizing slot-machine gambling and higher sales tax and income tax on higher-income residents.
"This is happening within the context of addressing our fiscal challenges," said Sen. Rob Garagiola (D-Montgomery), who stood next to the governor with Hammen at yesterday's announcement.
Staff writer John Wagner contributed to this report.

I made a whipped cream bundt cake, flavored only with vanilla, as a complement to a chocolate birthday cake. It's a Rose Levy Beranbaum recipe which I haven't made before, and the directions call for just a dusting of powdered sugar. I'm not a fan of powdered sugar, so would probably simply leave it plain or drizzle a light citrus glaze on top.
Has anyone made this cake, or have any ideas what else could be done to give this cake a bit more contrast? No fresh berries on hand right now, unfortunately. Thanks.

Net – Worth Update
|Student Loan A

|Student Loan C
My Portfolio
Today, I want to talk about all the things that I have invested in, and what I learned from doing so. With that note, let's first talk about the four main accounts that my portfolio currently consists of.
- My checking account
- My brokerage account
- My US treasury account
- My LendingClub account
Combined, these 4 accounts hold every single penny I own. Furthermore, it gets even more complex because I have sub-accounts inside of my main accounts. Without further adieu, let's get started talking about my portfolio.
The Chase Checking
My chase checking is pretty much the middle man of my investment scheme. I use it to collect money I earn from working. Unfortunately, I'm actually earning 0% interest on it. However, I am glad that the account doesn't come with any fees, as I always have a balance over $1500.
The Schwab Brokerage
Typically if you want to trade stocks and other securities, you need an institution to hold them for you. For me, that's schwab. The thing I really liked about schwab was that once I put in my information for a taxable brokerage, I was able to open IRA's with schwab using a few clicks (since they already had my information).
Taxable Brokerage
In my taxable brokerage account, I hold two different positions.
NNA, Navious Maritime Acquisition Corp.
Navious is an oil shipping company. Basically, they have a bunch of boats that they fill up with oil and transport around the country. Let's take a look at how the stock has performed since I purchased it.
As you can see from the graph above I've made quite a bit of profit off of NNA. My initial investment of $1104.85 has grown to $1433.85 (not counting dividends). Essentially, I've earned a return of about 30% over the course of two months on this stock.
Why I decided to purchase NNA
I purchased NNA because it looked stupidly undervalued. Let me explain why I thought it was undervalued.
It's dividend yield was 15%
For the past 5 years, NNA has consistently paid a dividend of $0.05 per share. At a price of $1.31, one share of NNA would earn $0.20 per year. This means that every year, I earn 15.26% (0.2, the dividend per year / 1.31, the price per share) on my initial investment.
15% dividend yield is very uncommon, and most stocks cannot sustainably pay a 15% yield. However, after looking at NNA's dividend history and financial cash flow, I was convinced that it wasn't overpaying dividends.
NNA had very low valuation ratios
At the time of my purchase, NNA had a Price to Earnings ratio (also known as a P/E ratio) of about 2. What this means is that for every $2 worth of NNA shares, NNA (as a company) earned $1 dollar. Right now the ratio is at around 4. Typically, the lower a P/E ratio, the "cheaper" a stock is.
In addition, NNA had a very low Price to Tangible book ratio (also known as a P/B ratio). To better explain what this means, lets imagine that NNA decided to close down and sell every single tangible asset it had (boats, equipment, investments), pay off all of its debts, and then split that remaining money among its shareholders. The P/B ratio would be the price that the share is trading at divided by the amount that NNA paid you per share (after selling everything). If the P/B ratio is less than 1, you would get more money than what you paid for when NNA splits its money among the shareholders. If the ratio was higher than 1, you would get less money than what you paid for. Just watch out for negative P/B ratios (those are really bad)!
However, it wasn't all great. NNA had a lot of debt!
I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing NNA because of the debt it owed on its ships. Giant oil carrying ships are not cheap! They can cost millions of dollars. As a result, NNA financed their ships with debt.
The reason I was scared about investing in a company with a lot of debt is because the company has to pay off its debt before it pays me. As a result, if there was a sudden downturn in profit, I would easily lose my dividend, as all of the debt has to be paid off first.
Lesson learned
However, despite the massive debt, I still decided to purchase NNA because it had decent financials and was extremely undervalued. However, I also don't know that if winning with NNA was due to beginner's luck or a successful analysis. I plan on picking other stocks in the future to see if I actually know what I'm doing.
MLPA, Global X MLP ETF
MLPA isn't a company like NNA, its an ETF. Basically, its a fund composed of many other companies compressed into a single stock. MLPA focuses on the energy industry, (which means that it buys stocks related to energy).
Why I bought MLPA
Unlike NNA, I didn't actually do any significant analysis into MLPA. The only reason I bought it was because I had money sitting in my brokerage after getting a dividend from NNA. I chose MLPA because it paid a decent dividend (~7%) and did not cost any commission to purchase. (Typically when you purchase stocks, you pay a commission to the broker that initiates the transaction for you. Some funds waive that broker fee, like MLPA).
Thus, whenever I have spare cash lying around, I'll probably dump it into a share or two of MLPA.
The Roth IRA
I hold quite a few investments in my Roth IRA. The main stock I hold in this account is NLY, Annaly Capital Management, which is a real estate investment trust (REIT).
NLY, Annaly Capital Management
As a REIT, NLY deals with real estate. All REIT's must pay out 90% of their profits as a dividend. As a result they usually have high dividends. Unfortunately for me, I purchased NLY right before interest rates started to rise.
As you can see from the graph above, I've lost nearly 10% of my investment in NLY (which will actually be closer to 5% after I get some dividends). One of the reasons NLY has fallen in price is because interest rates are rising. Business's involving real estate are very capital intensive (meaning that they require a lot of money because real estate is really expensive). When interest rates rise, it cost more money to borrow capital. As a result, REITs (like NLY) have more trouble borrowing the money they need to expand their business.
Why I purchased NLY
The main reason I decided to by NLY was because of it's super high 10% dividend, and my Uncle suggested the stock to me. In addition, I really wanted to invest in something real-estate related, (mostly because of all the hype surrounding real estate). I really should have done more research on this stock before purchasing it, instead of simply being blinded by its huge dividend.
Lesson Learned
Always thoroughly research a stock before purchasing it, as failing to do so is tantamount to gambling. Also, don't simply chase stocks that pay large dividends, as they may not necessarily be sustainable. And lastly, pay attention to interest rates as they affect REITs negatively!
Other Misc. Shares
I also have 1 share of MPLA and 5 shares of PGX in this account. I mainly bought these out of a whim, kind of just to try out buying stocks. I'll explain more about PGX below.
The Regular IRA
In addition to a Roth IRA, I also opened a regular IRA over at schwab. The reason I did this was to lower my taxable income to the point where I qualified for the saver's tax credit, (which basically saves me $200 on taxes). I only have one large position in this account, which is PGX. Like MLPA, PGX is an exchange traded fund (ETF). However the difference is that PGX focuses on preferred stock instead of the energy industry.
PGX, Powershares Preferred Portfolio
After losing money on NLY, I decided to wise-up and dollar cost average! Instead of purchasing all of my shares of PGX at once, I decided to spread out my purchase so that if the price dropped, I wouldn't get screwed as much.
Why I bought PGX
There were two main factors that led me to purchase PGX, high dividend income and safety.
Right now, PGX has a dividend yield of about 6%, which is fairly high. In addition, that dividend income came from preferred stock, which is significantly safer than regular common stock. To understand why preferred stock is safer, let's look at how cash flows in a company.
Basically, after paying off debts, the company is forced to pay preferred share holders. By placing yourself higher on the cash-flow chain, you make it much more certain that you will end up getting paid. That's why preferred stock is usually safer as an investment compared to common stock.
Lesson Learned
Once again, interest rates have a negative correlation with the price of preferred stock. If the interest rates rise, the price of the preferred stock drops. So, it's pretty wise to watch interest rates and adjust your investments accordingly!
The US Treasury
I didn't want to put all of my money at risk, so I also bought an I-Bond. The balance on the I-bond is only updated every 6 months, so I have "not lost nor gained" any money on my I-bond yet. Regardless, I do have a nice $5,000 sitting protected inside of this bond.
Lending Club
I recently invested $5,500 dollars into a Lending Club Roth IRA. I have not had sufficient time to actually invest all of the money into loans (as a matter of fact, my transaction has not yet cleared and my money is still pending transfer), but I plan on investing in high-risk notes earning 13%+ interest rates. I'll probably post an update on how this turns out later on. But for now, I'm just trying to invest the money in my lending club account.
Here's the summary of my investments in a neat, nice table:
One thing to note is that the interest on the I-bond is only added every six months. However, its technically worth $5023 right now.
Finishing thoughts
Overall, I'd say that I got screwed over by fear of rising interest rates early on, and was able to recoup my losses thanks to a lucky investment with NNA. I've learned so much about finance and investing over the past 6 months, and am proud to say that I've successfully killed my student loans and build up nearly $20K worth of wealth! Unfortunately, I've only got 10 months left to go on my 99K challenge, and I've got roughly 80K left to procure. Regardless, I feel that I'm well on my way, and I'm feeling strong about my current position. If you've got any questions about anything I've written here, feel free to comment below or email me (firstname.lastname@example.com)!

So you landed that sweet gig at the local venue. Hours before the show you load your rig into your personal vehicle, make the drive, and set up. There's time before downbeat, and you're hungry, so you figure it'll only be a half hour to grab a quick burger at the diner across town. While munching on fries you hear some sirens in the distance, but don't give it another thought…
Until you turn the corner on the way back to the venue. The street is blocked off, you smell smoke and the flashing lights seem to be right in front of the old theater you loaded your $15,000 system into just two hours ago. Your heart sinks as you approach a building you've heard described in news reports as "fully involved".
There were no injuries. That's the good news. But the old structure didn't stand a chance, and burned to the ground with all your gear. The bad news continues as you learn that the owners had let their insurance lapse, so now your only hope is your homeowner's policy. You call your agent.
That conversation doesn't start well…"Your homeowner's policy only covers your personal property outside the home if it's not used in a professional capacity. You were getting paid for that show, weren't you?" The rest of the conversation is mostly a blur, as you realize you've lost years of hard work and earnings, and won't be able to work for months, if ever.
Most of us think nothing bad will happen, and that's mostly true. Many of us assume that our homeowner's insurance policy covers our gear, since that's personal property, right? Yes it is, but there are limits to where it's covered (while it's in your home or car) and how it's used (often only for personal enjoyment, not professional employment). Additionally, dollar limits and deductibles apply, and it's very easy to exceed them with pricey sound and music gear. Finally, if the policy doesn't cover replacement value (what it costs to buy new gear) then the insurance company can and will use "fair market value" to determine what they'll pay. Fair market value is defined as the value of something sold by someone who doesn't have to sell, to a buyer who doesn't have to buy. This translates to, "not a whole lot". Vintage gear might be worth a lot to musicians, but insurance companies may simply view it as "old".
What to do? First, I recommend you always find a reputable independent insurance agent and discuss your situation. They work for you, not the insurance companies whose policies they sell, and will give you honest and accurate advice and information. Insurance laws and regulations vary by state and region, so what applies in one place may not be accurate in another.
Next, get an accurate inventory of your gear. Determine what you paid. Saving receipts will pay off here. Incidentally, it's a good idea to make photocopies of receipts, as the ink used on many register receipts fades to 'invisible' in a few years. Take photos of everything, and save them to a disc or thumb drive. It certainly doesn't hurt to have multiples of all this info, and keep them in different places if possible.
So what sort of coverage can you buy? For the most part, if you use your gear outside the home, your agent will probably recommend what's known as an Inland Marine policy. Marine? Huh? That's just an old term that goes way back, when insurance companies that covered ocean shipping decided to also cover goods moved across land. Inland marine policies cover specialized items and items that are often transported. For us, it simply means our music gear is covered.
These policies are not as regulated as your homeowner's or auto policy, and they're specialized insurance, so expect the premium to be higher than you might think. When deciding on a policy, always weigh the cost of coverage against the potential loss you would incur should it be stolen or destroyed. Do you earn a portion of, or all of your living with it? Can you afford to simply buy replacements on your own? Do you either store or use your gear in a high-crime area?
If you can afford to carry some of the cost of a loss, you might have the option of a higher deductible in exchange for a lower premium. Just be sure you've got the cash or credit to cover the deductible in the event something happens.
Are you in the AFM? Musician's Union members in the US can purchase insurance for their instruments and gear through the unions "All-Risk Musician Instrument and Equipment Insurance Plan". I'm not a union member and don't have access to the details of the policies, but have heard from members who say the premiums are quite competitive with Inland Marine policies. As always, compare price and coverage directly before making a decision. It wouldn't hurt to show any policy you're considering to your agent to get a professional opinion.
Once you've got a policy you're happy with, don't forget to keep your coverage up to date. If you invest in a new instrument or sound gear, be sure the coverage amounts will include the new acquisition. A quick call to your agent can increase coverage and give you peace of mind. And of course, if you sell off some of your rig and don't plan new purchases (I know, who does that?) you might consider lowering coverage.
In conclusion:
· Never assume you're covered without checking your policy.
· Find an agent and establish a working relationship.
· Know your gear inventory and its value/replacement cost.
· Weigh cost against coverage and any deductibles.
· Maintain your gear inventory so you can increase or decrease coverage as you buy or sell items.
Nobody wants to think their possessions will be stolen or damaged by an accident. But we all know it happens. Getting some insurance coverage obviously isn't free, but the peace of mind of knowing you can be restored quickly after a loss is worth the investment.

Total-Beauty didn't originally have a website until they proceeded to the team at IT express where we created a professional page providing information about the beauty parlour and the wide variety of services that they offer, including the ellipse hair removal system which so far is the only ellipse machine within East Yorkshire. Originally this is why Total-Beauty had wanted the website to begin with, to promote the services they provide that others don't have anywhere else within the county. They had also requested for the following sections to be put on to the website; downloadable price list, news, about us, contact, home, and treatments.
We provided all requirements on budget and within the time-scale we had agreed with the client. There were no problems at all whilst creating this website, it was straight forward with no complications.

XL Hybrids has begun supplying its XL3 gasoline-electric hybrid powertrain for General Motors' 3500/4500 cutaway and cab chassis van beginning with 2011 model-year vehicles, according to the company.
The XL3 Hybrid Electric Drive System is compatible with various wheelbases, including the GM cutaway single and double rear wheels. It can be installed as a retrofit or a new upfit for 4.8L and 6.0L gas engines, and it provides 20-percent fuel and carbon-dioxide savings, according to the company.
Upon installation of the XL3, GM's factory warranty remains intact, while the XL3 hybrid powertrain components are covered by a three-year, 75,000-mile warranty.
XL Hybrids' system saves fuel through regenerative braking, a process where the electric motor helps slow the vehicle when the driver brakes and charges the battery. When the driver accelerates, the battery releases the energy to the electric motor to propel the vehicle.

This website will also serve as a vehicle to increase awareness of special needs issues and rare genetic disorder support. I have used it to help me deal with parenting Damian (his story here) and it will ultimately encompass many years' worth of his – and my – growth.

His brother (you might have seen him dressed as a clown at the festival) has a genuine Harlequin that he's planning to modify, but couldn't get it ready in time for the festival, mainly due to a screwed gearbox. This was a quick stand-in for it. I can't see many people on here being interested in buying it (I could be wrong) but it'll be interesting to see what it goes for!

- ¾ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 2 ½ cups raw, unsalted almonds
- 1 ½ cups white whole wheat flour
- 1/8 cup sunflower oil (OR organic canola or coconut oil)
- 2 tsp almond extract
- 1/8 cup almond milk
- ¼ cup apple juice
- 1 cup maple syrup
- 1 cup your favorite flavor Laura Ann's Jam
- Place two racks in the middle of the oven. Preheat oven to 330°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Pulse the almonds in a food processor until they form a flour but still having some crunchy bits of almonds. Place almond mixture in large bowl, and add all the dry ingredients.
- In another bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients except for the jam. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until well blended.
- Scoop the dough into 1-inch balls. Place the dough about 2-inches apart on the parchment paper. Press a thumbprint into the center of each ball, about ½ inch deep. Fill each indentation with about ¾ teaspoon of jam. This works best if you spoon the jam into a plastic bag and cut the bottom off the bag. Pipe the jam into each indentation.
- Place the baking sheets on two different racks in the oven. Bake the cookies for approximately 20-30 minutes, until the edges and top are golden. Rotate the pans from top to bottom halfway through the baking process for even color.
- Cool cookies and serve. You can store the cookies in a tightly sealed container for up to 4 days.
Thank you, Ordinary Vegan! They love Laura Ann's Jams, and they brightened our day considerably with this yummy recipe & GREAT idea for any holiday.

Parasites -spywarez -Adwarez programs all discussed at the Lavasoft site that detects and removes the buggers.
Interesting side note on Trojan horse scams thta use the most popular sought after gaming items. ( Gamers just don't care if it's free)..
"A new fraud by Internet scam artists attempts to tap into video game aficionados' burning desire to play Microsoft Xbox games on their personal computers.
An "Xbox emulator" currently being offered for free on the Web is actually a Trojan horse designed to covertly rack up money for its authors using pay-for-click and other schemes, malicious code experts said.
Link: http://www.lavasoft.nu/cgi-bin/forums/ikonboard.cgi
Instead of enabling users to run popular Xbox games such as "Halo" on their PCs, executing the fake emulator's installation program, "EMU_xbox.exe", merely produces error messages.
All that's installed on the victim's PC is a "back door" program called "NetBUIE.exe", which silently attempts to contact numerous remote servers, including four operated by Microsoft and two by online advertising network DoubleClick, according to a preliminary analysis by TruSecure Corporation.
"It's obviously greyware or scaliwag-ware of some sort," said Roger Thompson, director of malicious code research for TruSecure.
According to Thompson, the program may generate revenues for its creators by tallying up ad impressions and click-throughs at some of the remote Web sites.
According to a counter service used by the back-door program at Microsoft's Bcentral.com site, NetBUIE has contacted the Fastcounter site nearly 4 million times.
The fraudulent program appears to draw its name from NetBEUI, which is spelled differently and stands for NetBios Enhanced User Interface, a standard Windows networking protocol.
In a further effort to prevent infected users from detecting or uninstalling the back door, the authors of NetBUIE.exe gave the program's file attributes an air of legitimacy. When viewed using the Windows "file properties" feature, the program shows a Microsoft copyright notice and is described as a "Network Connection Verification Utility."
Nearly 30,000 people have visited the bogus emulator's download site since mid-April, according to a counter linked from the site. The phony program was the first item listed at Google.com today in a search on the phrase "Xbox emulator."
One Internet news group user bit by the backdoor program said his firewall reported attempts to access MSN.com, leading him to speculate that NetBUIE.exe was created by Microsoft to monitor users who attempt to avoid paying $299 for its Xbox video game system.
When asked to examine NetBUIE.exe today, Microsoft's Security Response Center confirmed that the program is not a Microsoft product.
No program by the name NetBUIE.exe or identified as "Network Connection Verification Utility" was currently available at Microsoft's site.
Launched in November, 2001, Microsoft's Xbox console is based on a PC-like architecture, yet no functioning Xbox emulators currently exist, according to Gerard Krijgsman, the operator of a site called The Emulator Zone.
"If any Web site claims to offer a working Xbox emulator for download, it is 99.99% likely to be fake," said Krijgsman.
However, as Krijgsman recently wrote in a notice at his site, "people do want (Xbox emulators). This need creates a dangerous symptom: the fake emulator."
NetBUIE.exe is not the first such bogus emulator to hit the Internet. In January, a phony PC-based Xbox program was posted to the Web under the name "xBoX-Emulator.0.35.zip" and was featured on the Slashdot technology discussion site.
According to the earlier program's author, who calls himself "Linar," xBoX-Emulator consisted only of dummy screen shots and was designed to show how gullible Internet users are and how fast rumors travel in cyberspace.
Linar told Newsbytes that the original program did not contain any malicious code, but that copies available from mirror sites may have been "Trojaned."
A January bulletin from Symantec warned of malicious code, which it named Trojan.Badcon, being distributed "as a valid program, such as X-Box emulation software." According to the anti-virus software firm, Trojan.Badcon was designed to exploit a known flaw in Microsoft's Windows 95 and Windows 98 operating systems, causing them to crash and require a restart.
So far today, anti-virus software sites did not yet appear to have descriptions of the NetBUIE.exe Trojan horse...Newsbytes artical.

Inquiring minds want to know the answer. When the parasite/scumwarez redirects of our visitors clicks go through their servers to change/set cookies for participating merchants are they set to 365 return days. These same merchants often allow us only 1 day cookies but the Hijackers get 365 days therefore they also monitize shoppers who bookmark the pages. If this is so then the only way we'll ever get a sale from any of the merchants who signup for these Interloper services ..ie. Gator ShopNow/Whenu- Morpheus etc etc is if thta shopper returns to our site ..clicks on our link..and ignors the hijackers new message.

Some organisations are great at customer service; it's deeply embedded in their culture - it's "in their DNA". But for many organisations, delivering great customer service is an ongoing issue. Senior teams know it, but seem unable to do much about it. Initiatives come and go, but none really move the dial. Why?
Here are five common reasons that customer service initiatives fail. Do your plans fall foul of any of these?
1. Seeing it as an Initiative
Improving customer service requires a deep and ongoing commitment. It starts with a vision of how you want the customer to feel and to perceive the organisation and its people. Delivering it might require programmes of education and skills development, developing a new language and ways of working, and lots of communication and hoopla. Making a step-change in customer service really is like turning an oil tanker. And one thing that will guarantee failure, is trying to do it through a standalone initiative.
2. Starting at the Bottom
Service quality is a result of business culture. Initiatives that focus changes primarily on front-line teams, without championing real behaviour change throughout the organisation, will always be short-lived. True service culture begins at the top, and cascades through every layer of the hierarchy, supporting and serving those at the sharp-end. Stores with happy customers and unhappy staff are as common as hen's teeth.
3. Focusing on Stores
Customer service happens whenever the organisation interacts with a customer, supplier, investor, or even just a member of the public. It happens in accounts, in PR, in logistics, and HR. It happens on the website, on the phone, in reception and in the car park. Whether it's answering the phone promptly, replying to mail consistently, delivering on time every time, the same service ethic must pervade the organisation in order to guarantee the customer experience and to become self-perpetuating.
4. Prioritising Sales
Selling up, selling across and selling on may be great phrases for sales teams who have the service basics in place, but in order to effectively sell, you first need to gain trust. Good sales technique is good customer service: engaging with and listening to the customer, understanding the need, offering alternatives and suggestions, and going the extra mile. But where customer service is below par, pushing initiatives that are primarily around sales actually worsens the experience.
5. Trying to Eat an Elephant
Q: How do you eat an elephant? A: One piece at a time.
The key to great customer service is consistency, but people are incredibly inconsistent, especially whilst they are still learning. The only way to deliver consistent improvements in service is to break it into chunks, and swallow them one at a time. Allow time for each step change to become second nature - an unconscious competence - before layering the next change on top. Businesses, and especially CEOs, need to work at pace: to measure, change and measure again. But customer service is 100% about people, and people take time, and care, and support, to adapt. Sometimes, more haste really is less speed.

Earth evolves. From first atom to molecule, mineral to magma, granite crust to single cell to verdant living landscape, ours is a planet constantly in flux. In this radical new approach to Earth's biography, senior Carnegie Institution researcher and national best-selling author Robert M. Hazen reveals how the co-evolution of the geosphere and biosphere - of rocks and living matter - has shaped our planet into the only one of its kind in the Solar System, if not the entire cosmos.
"Makes minerals interesting"
For the first time, scientists have nailed down a source of fast radio bursts, one of astronomy's most enigmatic phenomena.
"Mysterious Radio Burst Came From a Galaxy 2.5 Billion Light Years Away, Astronomers Discover" is from the December 04, 2016 Speaking of Science section of The Washington Post. It was written by Sarah Kaplan and narrated by Sam Scholl.
Despite being ripe for complex life, it took another 1.5 billion years for oxygen-hungry animals to evolve.
Since its formation nearly five billion years ago, our planet has been the sole living world in a vast and silent universe. Now, Earth's isolation is coming to an end. Over the past two decades, astronomers have discovered thousands of "exoplanets" orbiting other stars, including some that could be similar to our own world. Studying those distant planets for signs of life will be crucial to understanding life's intricate mysteries right here on Earth. In a firsthand account of this unfolding revolution, Lee Billings draws on interviews with top researchers.
Tiny, tubular structures uncovered in ancient Canadian rocks could be remnants of some of the earliest life on Earth, scientists say.
"Newfound 3.77-Billion-Year-Old Fossils Could Be Earliest Evidence of Life on Earth" is from the March 01, 2017 Speaking of Science section of The Washington Post. It was written by Sarah Kaplan and narrated by Sam Scholl.
Death Valley National Park in California, is a 3.5 million acre desert preserve, boasting the hottest, driest, and lowest spot in North America. Patricia Lawrence is exploring this land of extremes with park geologists.
New evidence suggests that life on Earth arose before 4.1 billion years ago, 300 million years earlier than previous estimates.
Rock record shows signs of oxidation 200 million years earlier than previously thought.
"Waste in Cancer Drugs Costs $3 Billion a Year, a Study Says" is from the Health section of The New York Times. It was written by Gardiner Harris and narrated by Fleet Cooper.
Climate change is a major topic of concern today and will be so for the foreseeable future, as predicted changes in global temperatures, rainfall, and sea level continue to take place. But as Jan Zalasiewicz and Mark Williams reveal in The Goldilocks Planet, the climatic changes we are experiencing today hardly compare to the changes the Earth has seen over the last 4.5 billion years.
"An important read for today's energy user...."
Biologist, author and businessman Craig Venter discusses his work mapping and synthesizing genomes. Venter recalls his work mapping the human genome and expands on his current work which includes categorizing new genes and species of microbes from ocean water. Venter also explains how microbial research can be used for metabolic engineering and alternative energy sources.
"Easily absorbed by non scientists"
An analysis of an Apollo rock suggests two ways such a small body generated its field.
"Uber Lost $1.2 Billion, and the Year's Only Half Over" is from the August 25, 2016 Business section of The New York Times. It was written by Mike Isaac and narrated by Corey M. Snow.

Origins explains the soul-stirring leaps in our understanding of the cosmos. From the first image of a galaxy birth to Spirit rover's exploration of Mars, to the discovery of water on one of Jupiter's moons, coauthors Neil deGrasse Tyson and Donald Goldsmith conduct a galvanizing tour of the cosmos with clarity and exuberance.
The United States would realize roughly $9 billion a year in economic gains by instituting a simple, nationwide policy change: starting public school classes no earlier than 8:30 a.m.
"Letting Teens Sleep in Would Save the Country Roughly $9 Billion a Year" is from the September 01, 2017 Wonkblog section of The Washington Post. It was written by Christopher Ingraham and narrated by Jenny Hoops.
To better understand the inner workings of our bodies and to trace the origins of many of today's most common diseases, we have to turn to unexpected sources: worms, flies, and even fish.

Jan. 31 women's basketball chat
Ask beat writer Jeff Huth about the Illini's Thursday night performance at Ohio State.
Are either Cattenhead or Shakleford going to play this year or are both going to redshirt? What's going on with Piper?
Hi Jeff,
Nice to see the team get a couple B1G wins under their collective belt. What do you think about Coach Bollant and how things have progressed so far? I understand that the Illini have weaknesses down low but besides Chatrice White (who is a great get) it doesn't look like we have many highly-rated recruits to help fill those and other holes in the lineup. If you have opinions on the improvement of younger players and Coach Bollant's ability to scheme (i.e. the "Buzz") that would be great, too. Go Illini
I've been watching this womens basketball team and the one thing I noticed is that they don't have the pesonnel or depth to run the coaches defensive system. Do you think he needs to adjust to the personnel he has.
Hi Jeff (Volleyball question),
Based on what you know of her as a former player and what you've been able to find out about her as a coach so far, can you give us some ideas about that to expect from the new hire, Hilary Haen?? Thanks.
Re: This morning's story about UI recruit Chatrice White, have you had a chance to see her play? What can you tell us about the qualities she'd bring to our team?
While we're at it, same question about the other recruits.
What happened to Jayme Gergen, the assistant volleyball coach?
