The Coast Guard established the zone and set aside a designated protest area off Kalapaki Beach after a flotilla of protesters prevented the ferry from landing Aug. 27. A separate security zone is to extend 100 yards around the ferry. The ferry, designed to carry more than 800 passengers and 250 cars between major Hawaiian islands, has been anchored in Honolulu Harbor since the protest, awaiting a state court ruling on whether it can resume service without an environmental assessment the state Supreme Court has ruled should have been conducted. A court order temporarily bars the ferry from using Kahului Harbor on Maui. The ferry legally could resume service to Kauai now, but Superferry officials have said the company needs daily service to both Kauai and Maui to be economically viable, and they don't want to sail until legal obstacles have cleared the way for full operations. In seeking a temporary restraining order against the Kauai security zone, attorney Lanny Sinkin argued it would deny free speech by keeping protesters out of the water when the ferry is in Kauai's port. Gillmor said the security zone leaves the way open for both protesters and supporters to exercise their First Amendment rights on land around the harbor. Sinkin told Gillmor the zone was invalid because it was designed to prevent terrorism and subversive acts. Government attorneys denied the claim. Assistant U.S. Attorney Derrick Watson said protesters have vowed to use their bodies to again try to block the Superferry and that the Coast Guard followed guidelines that allow such security zones to prevent accidents. Sinkin said he would appeal Gillmor's ruling to the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. [Source: AP]

Praveen Nair (Guest)'s review on Ford EcoSport 2017 1.5P Titanium MT
Year of Manufacture : 2014 | Driven no. of Kms. : 50000
- Pros: comfortable seating, powerful engine,
- Cons: turbo lag, seems under powered sometimes
I find ecosport very good. The seats are pretty comfortable. The adjustable steering can be adjusted to any one's driving comfort. The EcoBoost powered Engine is a very good performer for Mid and top variants. I drove at 170km in one go and the car was performing well no lack in power. Diesel Engine performance is also great but beyond 140 KMPH, the engine feels under-powered. Both the engines have a similar power once the turbo starts spreading its magic there comes a huge gap. The turbo lag is not as bad as compared to its competitors. Overall i find this car pretty much impressive with all required features already equipped with it.

I'm sending gentle hugs. My wife told me today she want's me back. Like you I have had a flare for a few weeks that has me just dropped down to nothing. My personality and comunication skills went into hiding as well.
The only advise I can give is some I need to take myself . Talk to your family, even if the only thing you can discuss is how you feel (emotionally and physically). Laugh a lot; find joke or comedy sites on the internet. Try a craft, this helps me with concentration and fine motor skills.
I hope you get through this flare soon.

The group was back on 7th June; so that day is excluded from the counting. The month of May has 31 days and so include 31st May also counting.
Which of the following fractions is equivalent to
You can generate equivalent fractions by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
How many triangles of all sizes are there in the picture below?
Four triangles are clearly visible at the four corners of the outer square. The inner square is divided into two bigger triangles by the horizontal line, and similarly by the vertical line. The inner square is also divided into four triangles by the two lines.
Which of the following decimal numbers lies between the fractions
The decimal number 0.67 is within the interval (0.60, 0.80). Thus it lies somewhere between the fractions
At the sea beach, James and Mike were playing with sand. James made a square with each side of 16 inches. Mike made a rectangle with a length of 32 inches. If the areas of the figures made by them were equal, what was the width of Mike's rectangle?
Area of the square = 16 x 16 = 256 sq. inches.
As area of the square and the rectangle are equal, so the area of the rectangle is also 256 sq. in.
The area of the rectangle = length x width
Width = area/ length = 256/32 = 8 inches
Which of the following has only one axis of symmetry?
The Euro image has only one line of symmetry.
A triangle has three and a square has four lines of symmetry. The Pond and the Dollar signs do not have any lines of symmetry.
A triangle ABC has been plotted on a coordinate graph as above. How many of the following points will not be within the area of the triangle?
(2, 2); (2, 3); (3, 3); (4, 1); (4, 2); (5, 1); (5, 2)
The points (2, 2),(4, 2), and (5, 2) fall within the triangle. But (2, 3), (3, 3), (4, 1), and (5, 1) are outside the boundary of the triangle.
A water tank has marble cubes flooring as shown in the picture below. Each side of the marble cube measures one foot.
How much water will be required to fill in the tank?
First think of the tank before the flooring was done and workout its measurements. Each side of the cube is one feet. The front view shows a length will be 6 ft and a width 3 ft. Now look at the marker on the right side of the tank. This indicates the total depth was 4 ft, out of which 1 ft has been used for flooring. So net depth for water is 3 ft only.
Net Capacity of tank available for holding water = 6 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft = 54 cubic feet
Below is an example of displaying an addition written in codes. Each of the Greek letters α, β, γ and δ represents one digit. Which digits are represented by the codes (α, β, γ, δ)?
It is given the total is a 4-digit number with all digits being the same. So the possible options may be 1111, 2222, 3333, 4444……..9999. Further, the total is the sum of a 3-digit number and two equal numbers, each of two digits.
Examine possibilities. For example, sum of the largest 2-digit numbers is 99 + 99= 199. If you take 888 as a 3-digit number, the total comes to 199 + 888 = 1087. All digits are not the same.
But the lowest 4-digit (with all digits being the same) is 1111. So the possible 3-digit number (with all digits being the same) needs to be higher than 888. Thus it is 999.
1111 - 999 = 112. It gives the sum of both 2-digit numbers, 56 each.

One year ago, over the objections of the American people, Washington Democrats rammed through a disastrous health spending law in a partisan vote. At the time, then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said, "We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it."
Well, now we know--and the results are not pretty. One year later, the disastrous law is hiking health care costs, eliminating choices and hurting job growth.
The independent Congressional Budget Office estimates that health care spending by the federal government will go up by $464 billion over the next decade. The law raises taxes, by more than $550 billion on everything from family medical bills to personal investments, over the same time.
Rising costs means more money out of your wallet. Despite the president's pledge that premiums would decrease by $2,500, many Kentucky families will see their rates go up by nearly $2,100, according to the independent CBO.
The president also promised before the law's passage that "if you like what you have, you can keep it." Now his administration admits that up to 69 percent of businesses will have to change health plans to meet Washington's requirements instead of the needs of their employees. And those will be the people who still have a job: The law's tangle of taxes and regulations, as estimated by the CBO, will mean 800,000 fewer jobs.
The new law cuts more than $500 billion from Medicare--not to fix Medicare but to pay for a brand new entitlement. Nearly half of Kentucky's seniors will lose access to Medicare Advantage programs they know and like. Those who do keep their Medicare Advantage plans will see cuts of more than $1,300 in services later this decade.
Even the Obama administration has admitted the law is unworkable by granting over 1,000 waivers to unions and businesses. The entire state of Maine has received a waiver from some of the law's requirements, the first in the nation for a whole state. Three more states are seeking waivers, including Kentucky.
Twenty-eight states are suing the federal government to get out from under the crushing Medicaid expansions and the individual mandate to buy insurance. That's because the law tells states what to do but doesn't provide all the money to pay for it--and Kentucky will be forced to spend $695 million we don't have between 2014 and 2019 on additional Medicaid benefits as a result. Governor Steve Beshear said, "I have no idea how we're going to pay for it."
Here's just one more example of how the health spending bill has made a mess of things. Thousands of Kentuckians pay for their health care costs with flexible spending accounts or health savings accounts. Now thanks to the new law, people using accounts like these must get a prescription for over-the-counter drugs. Doctors' offices are clogged with people asking for prescriptions for aspirin or rash cream.
Do we have to wait any longer to fix this mess? Or is one year enough?
More regulations, more taxes, more government spending, and more bureaucracy makes our health care system worse, not better. And we have record levels of federal spending and debt, along with too-high unemployment.
Government should do everything possible to turn that around--and that means repealing the health spending law and replacing it with common-sense, step-by-step reforms Americans support. This time reform means really cutting costs and giving consumers choices.

Bardavon 1869 Opera House
35 Market St. Poughkeepsie , NY 845-473-2072
Performing Arts Center, Local Theater
In New York, it's impossible to find a theater with more history than the Bardavon. Opened in 1869 as the Collingwood Opera House, the state's oldest continuously operating theater has housed tens of thousands of performances by legendary entertainers ("Buffalo" Bill Cody and John Philip Sousa), famed writers (Mark Twain) and a few commanders in chief (Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Delano Roosevelt and William Howard Taft). More recent acts to grace the stage include Al Pacino, Bob Dylan, Cher, B.B. King, Lou Reed, Chris Cornell and OK Go.
Comedy: The state's oldest theater is bound to have had a few iconic comedians attached to its history. Henny Youngman, Steven Wright, Milton Berle and "Monty Python" alumnus Eric Idle have all performed at the venue, which includes current comedic acts as part of its roster. -Chris SericoWebsite Buy tickets Add an event Correct this listing

What About Nunez?
Jeter's Backup at Shortstop May Have a Future in the Bronx
For everything that Eduardo Nunez is, there is also something he is not. He has a cannon arm but is woefully inaccurate. He has great speed but is prone to baserunning mistakes. He has a live bat but can be induced to chase pitches.
Nunez, 24, is an important young player for the Yankees organization. But his unfinished character should teach a lesson to anyone who thinks Derek Jeter's time as the Yankees' shortstop should come to an end. The lesson: It's actually really hard to do everything that Jeter does.
While the aging Yankees captain, who is nearly 37, may not reach every ball, he always makes the play. He runs the bases flawlessly and always delivers one of the most professional at-bats in the game.
The Yankees know they have something in Nunez, but they're not quite sure what yet. Nunez was the organization's eighth-highest rated prospect this season by Baseball America, and he won the utility infielder's job out of spring training over Ramiro Pena. In the unlikely event Jeter had left in free agency this past winter, Nunez would likely have been named the starting shortstop.
But Jeter did not leave, so Nunez is being groomed for a utility role. And with Jeter and Alex Rodriguez aging and in need of regular days off, and Robinson Cano due for an occasional day, the player who backs up all three will get significant playing time.
Since the chance to actually start comes so rarely, Nunez knows he needs to make the most of his time in the lineup while Jeter recuperates from a leg injury.
"It's a very important player we lost. I understand that,'' Nunez said. "One day, maybe I can play every day."
Nunez entered Monday's game hitting .247 with two home runs, 11 RBIs and a .302 on-base percentage—not bad for a player getting his first extended taste of big-league duty.
Yet for every good thing he does, there is a counterpoint, which is, to some degree, expected with a young player. The organization has been encouraged that, as the errors (five throwing and three fielding) have piled up, Nunez has maintained his upbeat demeanor.
His fellow players were impressed that Nunez didn't seem to lose focus despite the miscues. First baseman Mark Teixeira picked up on a quiet confidence that comes naturally.
"He's one of those guys who hasn't been around that long, but he carries himself like he has,'' Teixeira said. "He makes great plays in the field. He's just one of those guys where it feels like he's been around longer."
Teixeira also noted that Nunez has among the most powerful arms he's ever seen—he said he checks his glove once or twice a game to see if Nunez has broken the webbing with a throw. Now Nunez needs to iron out his kinks—he is working with first-base coach Mick Kelleher on his throwing problems— and establish himself as his own player.
Jeter should be back in a week. Nunez has proven he can survive at the big-league level. Now he has to show that he can be a dependable, consistent player the Yankees can count on.
"I think Nunie's done a great job in Derek's absence," Manager Joe Girardi said. "We haven't asked Nunie to replace Derek. We've just asked Nunie to be Nunie."

LONDON, Feb 2 (Reuters) - Weak and volatile markets and political uncertainty led firms in London's City to cut back on hiring last month, recruitment agency Astbury Marsden said on Monday.
A total of 2,788 new jobs were created in January in the British capital's financial district, down 18 percent from the same month in 2014.
The agency cited falling oil prices and the shock removal of the Swiss franc's cap as factors, saying firms also paused hiring to wait out national elections in Greece.
"There has been a huge amount for the markets and for the banks to absorb," said Adam Jackson, managing director of Astbury.
"City recruitment was gaining momentum during 2014, but with all the drama of recent weeks it is not surprising that we are seeing a slight pause."
January is usually a bumper time for new finance hires, as staff take their bonuses and switch positions for better pay and prospects. January job creation was up 156 percent on December, a dead month for new roles in any year.
A buoyant sector of the jobs market was compliance and risk, where teams have been steadily beefed up, Astbury Marsden said, as banks respond to a flurry of regulatory reforms. (Reporting By Andrew Winterbottom; editing by John Stonestreet)

CONCORD — Two local organizations that have been committed to improving the quality of life of their constituents want to make an even greater impact.
The Michael Chavez Center for Economic Opportunity and the Monument Community Partnership have long collaborated, officially merging in 2012. The nonprofit that serves the primarily low-income population of roughly 40,000 who are living within Concord's Monument Corridor, has launched its cohesive logo and name: Monument Impact: Together, Building a Stronger Community.
"We're fully merged. The new name and logo are part of that lasting glue," says Nati Flores, day labor and civic engagement program director, who was inducted in the 2014 Women's Hall of Fame by the Contra Costa Commission for Women for promoting social justice.
"She's a tireless worker, working for the rights and fair treatment of people," says Concord City Councilman Edi Birsan, who nominated her for the award. "She's an asset to the community."
Monument Impact's cohesiveness is apparent when speaking with some of its constituents.
Jose Llocclla, an immigrant from Peru, has found consistent work through the day labor program while forging friendships, learning English and computer skills, as he and Monument Impact staff and other clients share different cultural traditions, languages and food.
As a result, the stress level and ensuing high blood pressure for the "patriarch" of the 50-member family, who remain in Peru and rely on his financial support, has dwindled.
"We make a difference in very tangible ways in their lives," Flores says.
Such commitment prevails, with the nonprofit's consistent push to mitigate any circumstance that would impede the residents reaching self-sufficiency, or hinders their potential for attaining success in mind, body and spirit.
This is achieved by Monument Impact's holistic approach in serving its constituents, including: providing extensive job training, child care, transportation and education programs for all ages; fostering civic involvement; and encouraging a healthy lifestyle through classes and its annual health fair.
"(This model) promotes sustainability," says Flores. "Wherever they move, they'll have that skill set."
Llocclla often cooks ceviche for the crew as a way to convey his gratitude, while his wife Ingrid has a job with the county, and their son, Jesus, 21, attends Diablo Valley College, with aspirations of being a doctor.
Meanwhile, Pedro Freyre, coordinator of the day labor program, has come to know the impact of word-of-mouth, as news of workers' positive reputations spreads quickly.
"We're accountable to the community and our members," he says, noting the familial feel he has toward the workers, whose sense of pride and solidarity are evident each year as they participate in Concord's Fourth of July Parade, proudly holding the American flag, or volunteering to set up for various community events.
"Impact means making a difference," says executive director Mike Van Hofwegen. "The name change helps convey that we're a new complete whole, and that makes us more effective … We're in this for the long run, not just for the individual today … We're making it possible for (our members) to invest more in their community."

Folly Launch Party 24th January 2003
Lancaster, UK.
Come and join us to celebrate the expansion of our organisation. As of January, Folly will be taking over the whole building and moving some of our activity downstairs; as well as expanding our programing capabilities, this will allow us to offer more evening events, training and education opportunities, darkroom and Internet access and much more!
The launch party will take place on Friday 24th January to coincide with the next exhibition opening from 7pm onwards.
Folly is extremely pleased to welcome visiting Canadian artists (Tim Lee and Robert Kozinuk) and curator (Glenn Alteen - grunt gallery) of Vancouver Video to the preview night of their exhibition. This is the UK premiere of this refreshing and innovative new work.
Lancaster based artist Hester Reeve will give one of her rare cabaret-style performance happenings. Reeve and grunt gallery go back a long way - the artist lived and made live art works at the gallery as part of her year long Canadian tour Instigations on the Lay By (1989).
Dancing and music following the Folly Re-launch @ the Crypt! Courtesy of smorgasbord and softboy. Delightful 70

Fifteen more cases of locally-transmitted Zika virus have been confirmed in Singapore, the city-state's Ministry of Health (MOH) said late Monday.
With 41 cases confirmed early the same day, the total number of Zika virus infections in Singapore has risen to 56.
Although all the cases were clustered in one neighborhood — Aljunied Crescent — the MOH warned the virus could spread further as some of the patients live or work in other parts of Singapore. Since August 28, the National Environment Agency in Singapore has screened roughly 3,600 premises out of an estimated 6,000 in the Aljunied Crescent neighborhood to check for mosquito breeding grounds. The agency has detected and destroyed 36 breeding habitats so far.

At this point in the season, the Florida Panthers are open to trading virtually anyone and everyone, if it will help them continue building towards future success. Injuries to Stephen Weiss and Kris Versteeg, both of which were season-ending, won't help them achieve that any sooner.
But there's another veteran that has found his way into some trade rumors of late: defenseman Brian Campbell.
Campbell has been terrific, quietly, since joining the Panthers last summer. His old general manage Dale Tallon, who signed Campbell to his monster contract with the Chicago Blackhawks, went out and got him again in a draft day trade in the summer of 2011.
After this season, Campbell still has three years left on his deal with a cap hit over $7 million. Teams aren't going to like that too much, but he's still going to garner interest. He's still an elite puck mover from the blue line and is a very capable player in his own end.
Campbell posted a career-high 53 points from the blue line last year and won the Lady Byng Trophy. This year, he has 18 in 30 games. Not a bad total at all. His minus-18 is pretty awful, though, and it's not helped by the fact that the team around him is absolutely miserable.
Teams that have some cap flexibility, contenders especially, are going to have interest in Campbell. He's a solid locker room guy and a defenseman capable of playing in the top pairing. But the fact that he's Dale Tallon's boy raises the question of whether or not the Panthers will actually put serious thought into trading him before this year's trade deadline.

These Brussels tourist attractions will keep you and children well entertained during your Brussels vacation. They are best visited during daytime. And during evening, you can enjoy some of the great Brussels restaurants and bars.
The best way to see Brussels attractions comfortably is the well known hop-on hop-off bus. Also worth considering is the Brussels card, which features discounts for Brussels attractions and free entrance to museums.
A delicately sculpted town square erected over centuries to become the representation of Brussels' history. Almost all of the buildings have a historical significance and the Hotel de Ville (Town Hall) is still in use today. Located just down from Brussels Centrale, this historical market place is a must.
Just a few narrow alleyways from the Grand Place, the Peeing Boy or Manneken Pis is a famous little statue. Locals celebrate many festivities at this bronze fountain and there are over 700 costumes for this little fellow. Brusselans dress him while celebrating many events of the year from many countries around the world.
Just as Paris had warmed to the Eiffel Tower, Brussels had its own exhibition from a world fair – The Brussels Atomium. World Expo of 1958 left behind a gigantic structure in a shape of an atom that shone in the spring sun. Sounds interesting? Then journey up into the Heysel area of Brussels to explore the Atomium which yields a spectacular view of the city as well as art and science exhibitions and a restaurant in its 9 spheres.
Mini-Europe Brussels is a theme park with miniatures of the most famous monuments, sites and scenery of Europe. It is located next to the Atomium in Brupark. It is a great chance for families to have a nice day out with children. The miniatures are about 25 times smaller than the life size versions, some of the most famous include the Eiffel Tower, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Mount Vesuvius and of course the Grand Place!
A goliath of a structure with good view of the evening cityscapes of Brussels. With area of 20 000 square metres and heavy architecture this grand Brussels sight stands slightly above Brussels old town. Palais de Justice still serves its original purpose as the high courts of Brussels. It has a distinctive golden dome and many columns decorating its façade. Located at Place Poelaert near Avenue Louise shopping street.
The most famous opera house in Belgium is La Monnaie (The Mint). Along with many historical buildings in Brussels, this building has enjoyed a long history of construction, rebuilding and refurbishment. The current building is the third on the site and at one point it hosted the best of French theatre only second to the opera houses in Paris. Brussels opera is still highly active and the agenda is packed. So admire the structure during the day but pay a visit to the theatre at night!
Brussels city has become quite proud of the number of parks they have available in the city, called green spaces. These parks range from grand boulevards with statues and fountains to quaint parks with lakes and flowers. A leisurely stroll through the parks is not a bad idea for visitors who want to see nature within a concrete jungle. Picnics, books, children and dogs are most welcome.
About 30 minutes out of Brussels city, in the area of Planckendael, lies the Brussels city zoo. It is a large enclosure with animals from all over the world organised by regions of the world – Africa, Asia, Europe etc. This zoo makes for a great day excursion for animal lovers and visitors with children.
In Brussels, history meets modern day with monuments and buildings stretching all across the city to celebrate different eras. In the city centre there are tributes to royalty, the Royal Palace which is no longer a residency to the King but still stands and houses museums and churches. In the east side are the modern structures of the European Union. Each building and monument has its own unique story and historical significance.

|Black Friday Deal for Xiaomi Product what you should see, It is so cheap for you and you only have on Black Friday. Please see below for more detail:
Rumors are not always false. The existence of a new Smartphone from Huawei, Huawei Mate 9, for one, is quite true. During the previous few weeks, there has been tons of leaked images and info about Huawei's upcoming new device. Hence, expectations about this new flagship were high and it has been the center of much speculation. Finally, the Chinese Ministry of Information and Technology has confirmed the existence of Huawei Mate 9.
Details of Two Devices under Huawei Mate 9 Named MHA-AL00 and MHA- TL00
According to information available, Mate 9 code-name will be Manhattan. The two devices under the brand are going to be MHA-AL00 and MHA-TL00. The MHA code possibly stands for Manhattan. It is an obvious guess that the two devices will have much variety between themselves.
Expected Features of the Two Devices of Huawei Mate 9
Though the Chinese Ministry of Information and Technology has confirmed Mate 9's existence, but they have not unveiled much info about the features of the two devices. Information provided by Chinese Ministry state that they will have dual SIM slot and full network support. But, if previous leaks are true, Huawei Mate 9 will certainly feature a giant full HD display of 5.9 inches wide. Moreover, Huawei's own Kirin 960 chipset will power the device, as per news.
Huawei Mate 9 will sport 12MP and 20MP camera in the two devices. Regarding the front camera, information is yet to come out. However, if the news available are true, Leica will provide dual camera with f/2.0 aperture. Leaks also reveal that the Mate 9 will have 4GB and 6GB RAM variants. The internal storage capacity of the 6GB device will be as high as 256GB. The devices will run on Android Nougat. As per some more news, Huawei Mate 9 will have Huawei's fast charge technology named Supercharge. This will allow charging the mobile up to 50% within five minutes.
We are expecting more information soon!

AUSTIN (KXAN) – Sources said Monday afternoon that some University of Texas at Austin donors are pushing the school to fire coach Charlie Strong.
At his weekly press conference, Coach Strong said his focus is on Friday's game against Texas Christian University.
Donors said it's no secret that those who make the biggest contributions have the biggest impact. A few who wanted to remain anonymous said that it's best to leave Coach Strong alone and let him finish out his contract.
According to a NCAA report from 2015, donors contributed more than $31 million to the football program alone. The gifts and donations ranged from $50 to more than $100,000 and help with scholarships, recruiting and financing and maintaining venues.
UT Athletics has its own budget which is made up of ticket sales, donations or gifts and licensing fees. The Longhorn Foundation, the fundraising arm of Texas Athletics, reports that the athletics budget is $180 million and football makes up the largest portion.
Red McCombs is among the well-known Longhorn donors. He's donated millions to Texas. McCombs bashed Coach Strong's hiring in January of 2014 and later apologized. He told a San Antonio newspaper earlier this month that he does not count himself among the people pushing to fire Strong. KXAN tried to talk to McCombs Monday, but our calls were not returned.

I found amember easy to install and it is one of the easiest scripts out there for automatic protection of content, which is lacking in many scripts (I should know I'be tried over 20 membership scripts) the problem is price. It's expensive and you have to pay more for 'add ons'. Also you can only use it on one site unless you pay even more. The templates are not that easy to customize, and this really is what you want with a membership site. The other thing I found was that the script requires your site to have SSL installed and this is another added expense and sometimes is complicated for novices to get used to. If it were cheaper I would recommend it, but I would look elsewhere. If you have a wordpress site checkout s2member which is free.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

On 27.4.15 I viewed a flat I'd been informed by Castle was fully furnished when I arranged the viewing the week before. This was also borne out on the listing they gave me(attached). It wasn't fully furnished so when I queried this Castle Residential in Paisley said it would be furnished before I move. They input this on the contract. I told them I needed to move by 7.5.15 as this was the day when my notice expired on my current flat. They input this as the date of entry on the contract I signed. I offered my current landlord as a reference but they didn't want it.
I informed them as they requested 3mths rent in advance that I wished to view the property in advance of 7.5.15 but they said there were no slots until 6.5.15. This was unsatisfactory but we made an appt for 1pm on 6.5.15. Meanwhile I arranged a removals firm for 7.5.15 and confirmed with my current landlord that I would move out on 7.5.15 and confirmed a time for the checkout process
On route to the flat on 7.5.15 Castle rang me at 12.30 and said the furniture wasn't delivered. This was very distressing as I had to move by the next day and had everything planned. They suggested that I could still move in on 7.5.15 and the furniture would be delivered later. This was unacceptable as they expected me to sign a tenancy agreement that would commit me there to at least 6-8 months and payment of 3mth rent in advance without seeing the furniture.
I then went to their office where they said the furniture would be there by 7.5.15. I said I could put back my move by 1day if my current landlord allowed, which Castle agreed to. I then went to my current landlord and explained the situation. He agreed I could stay
1 more day if I paid extra rent. I then returned to Castle to confirm it was ok but then they said they couldn't guarantee the furniture would be delivered by 7.5.15. This was very annoying and stressful having just agreed to it and informing my current landlord so.I then went to my current landlord again and explained the situation. He agreed I could stay Til Monday 11.5.15 if I paid extra rent
I returned to Castle for the third time that day. We agreed to a viewing on 8.5.15 and a move on 11.5.15 if the viewing was successful
I informed my removals company by email and text. They obviously were unhappy as they didn't reply. So meanwhile I was trying to find another removals company at short notice and at a larger cost thanks to Castle who never offered any recompense for the additional costs and inconvenience and stress.
When I viewed on 8.5.15 I wasn't happy as the furniture was substandard. The mattress
was stained. There was now an extra fridge which was badly marked. It wasn't there when I viewed the first time and was sitting next to the original one,and the rest of the furniture was cheap,basic and very secondhand. I felt as if I was being taken advantage of as I had agreed to pay 3mth rent in advance, had little time to play around with, and this was the second time Castle had let me down.
I returned to the office that afternoon and gave my reasons above for wanting to withdraw my application. They asked me to put these in an email with my bank details and said my deposit would be returned. This I did that day). By 13.5.15 I had still not received a refund or a reply so I went back. They said they would chase it up.
By 14.5.15 I had still not received a refund or a reply so I sent Castle another email.By 18.5.15 I had still not received a refund or a reply so I went back to say I was still waiting.
By 20.5.15
I had still not received a refund or a reply so I returned and it was then for the first time Castle were refusing to refund my money which I still await

Sandra, there are more and more British people reading these forums because Ancestry.co.uk lists the same surname forums for the use of registered UK members,too. Unlike their other features, they are free to view and use.
Also, there are lots of people in Australia and NZ and other parts of the world researching their British ancestors who would also use the boards.
This should be more widely known. Ancestry should at least put a little note that the Surname area is a free worldwide service.

Ancient history
Germanic peoples occupied much of the present-day territory of Germany in ancient times. The Germanic peoples are those who spoke one of the Germanic languages, and they thus originated as a group with the so-called first sound shift (Grimm's law), which turned a Proto-Indo-European dialect into a new Proto-Germanic language within the Indo-European language family. The Proto-Indo-European consonants p, t, and k became the Proto-Germanic f, [thorn] (th), and x (h), and the Proto-Indo-European b, d, and g became Proto-Germanic p, t, and k. The historical context of the shift is difficult to identify because it is impossible to date it conclusively. Clearly the people who came to speak Proto-Germanic must have been isolated from other Indo-Europeans for some time, but it is not obvious which archaeological culture might represent the period of the shift. One possibility is the so-called Northern European Bronze Age, which flourished in northern Germany and Scandinavia between about 1700 and 450 bc. Alternatives would be one of the early Iron Age cultures of the same region (e.g., Wessenstadt, 800–600 bc, or Jastorf, 600–300 bc).
Evidence from archaeological finds and place-names suggests that, while early Germanic peoples probably occupied much of northern Germany during the Bronze and early Iron ages, peoples speaking Celtic languages occupied what is now southern Germany. This region, together with neighbouring parts of France and Switzerland, was the original homeland of the Celtic La Tène culture. About the time of the Roman expansion northward, in the first centuries bc and ad, Germanic groups were expanding southward into present-day southern Germany. The evidence suggests that the existing population was gradually Germanized rather than displaced by the Germanic peoples arriving from the north.
Solid historical information begins about 50 bc when Julius Caesar's Gallic Wars brought the Romans into contact with Germanic as well as Celtic peoples. Caesar did cross the Rhine in 55 and 53 bc, but the river formed the eastern boundary of the province of Gaul, which he created, and most Germanic tribes lived beyond it. Direct Roman attacks on Germanic tribes began again under Nero Claudius Drusus Germanicus, who pushed across the Rhine in 12–9 bc, while other Roman forces assaulted Germanic tribes along the middle Danube (in modern Austria and Hungary). Fierce fighting in both areas, and the famous victory of the Germanic leader Arminius in the Teutoburg Forest in ad 9 (when three Roman legions were massacred), showed that conquering these tribes would require too much effort. The Roman frontier thus stabilized on the Rhine and Danube rivers, although sporadic campaigns (notably under Domitian in ad 83 and 88) extended control over Frisia in the north and some lands between the Rhine and the upper Danube.
Both archaeology and Caesar's own account of his wars show that Germanic tribes then lived on both sides of the Rhine. In fact, broadly similar archaeological cultures from this period stretch across central Europe from the Rhine to the Vistula River (in modern Poland), and Germanic peoples probably dominated all these areas. Germanic cultures extended from Scandinavia to as far south as the Carpathians. These Germans led a largely settled agricultural existence. They practiced mixed farming, lived in wooden houses, did not have the potter's wheel, were nonliterate, and did not use money. The marshy lowlands of northern Europe have preserved otherwise perishable wooden objects, leather goods, and clothing and shed much light on the Germanic way of life. These bogs were also used for ritual sacrifice and execution, and some 700 "bog people" have been recovered. Their remains are so well preserved that even dietary patterns can be established; the staple was a gruel made of many kinds of seeds and weeds.
Clear evidence of social differentiation appears in these cultures. Richly furnished burials (containing jewelry and sometimes weapons) have been uncovered in many areas, showing that a wealthy warrior elite was developing. Powerful chiefs became a standard feature of Germanic society, and archaeologists have uncovered the halls where they feasted their retainers, an activity described in the Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf. This warrior elite followed the cult of a war god, such as Tyr (Tiu) or Odin (Wodan). The Roman historian Tacitus relates in the Germania that in ad 59 the Hermunduri, in fulfillment of their vows, sacrificed defeated Chatti to one of these gods. This elite was also the basis of political organization. The Germanic peoples comprised numerous tribes that were also united in leagues centred on the worship of particular cults. These cults were probably created by one locally dominant tribe and changed over time. Tribes belonging to such leagues came together for an annual festival, when weapons were laid aside. Apart from worship, these were also times for economic activity, social interaction, and settling disputes.
Coexistence with Rome to ad 350
After Rome had established its frontiers, commercial and cultural contacts between Germanic peoples and the Roman Empire were as important as direct conflict. Although it was heavily fortified, the frontier was never a barrier to trade or travel. About ad 50, tribes settled along the Rhine learned to use Roman money. Germanic graves—at least the richer ones—began to include Roman luxury imports such as fine pottery, glass, and metalwork. In return, raw materials, such as amber and leather, and many slaves went back across the frontier. Germanic tribesmen also served in Roman armies.
Border raiding was endemic, and periodically there were much larger disturbances. About ad 150 the Marcomanni, a Germanic tribe, moved south into the middle Danube region, and they even invaded Italy in 167. The emperor Marcus Aurelius and his son spent the next 20 years curbing their inroads, and archaeology shows that the wars were highly destructive. This migration was one manifestation of a broader problem, for between about 150 and 200 a whole series of Germanic groups moved south along the river valleys of central and eastern Europe. These migrations resulted in great violence along the entire frontier during the 3rd century. Parts of Gaul suffered greatly, and Goths, a Germanic people that originated in southern Scandinavia, ravaged the Danube region, even killing the emperor Decius in 251. Yet intensive campaigns brought the Germanic tribes back under control, so that by about 280 stability had returned to the Rhine and Danube. The Roman army and an alliance system involving, among others, Franks, Alemanni, and Goths maintained the frontier until about 370.
In the meantime the Germanic world was being transformed. For the balance of power in Europe, the most important development was the rise of larger and more cohesive Germanic political units, at least among the Germanic peoples living on the borders of the empire. This was largely a response to the military threat from Rome. Despite their occasional successes, more Germanic tribesmen than Romans had been killed in 3rd-century conflicts, and the Germanic peoples had learned that larger groups were more likely to survive. In the 4th century there were two powerful Germanic confederations: the Alemanni on the Rhine and the Goths on the Danube, both controlled by the military elite whose power over their fellow tribesmen continued to increase. Other contacts with the empire resulted in cultural borrowings. In the 3rd century Germanic peoples began to master the potter's wheel, and there is evidence of improved farming techniques; both were adopted from Rome. The empire was also partly responsible for Germanic groups' first steps toward literary culture. A written form of Gothic, the oldest literary Germanic language, was created about ad 350 by Ulfilas, a Roman-sponsored Arian Christian missionary, in order to translate the Bible.
The migration period
The situation was transformed by nomadic, non-Germanic Hunnish horsemen from the east who pushed Germanic peoples into the Roman Empire in several waves. First, in 376, Visigoths were admitted by the emperor Valens as foederati ("allies") to farm and defend the frontier. This procedure was not without precedent and was unusual only in the enormity of the group involved (traditionally estimated at about 80,000). The Romans were unprepared for such a large group, and their failure to accommodate the group and outright hostility toward the Visigoths led to confrontation. Two years later the Visigoths killed Valens, winning a famous victory at Adrianople (now Edirne, Turkey), though by 382 they had been subdued. Yet, as the Huns moved west, Rome's frontiers came under increasing pressure, and further large incursions (by Germanic as well as other peoples) occurred in 386, 395, 405, and 406. Some of the invaders were defeated, but Germanic Vandals and Suebi established themselves in Spain and later in North Africa, and the Visigoths exploited the disorder to rebel, especially after the election of Alaric as king. Marching to Italy, they demanded better terms, and, when these were not forthcoming, they sacked Rome on August 24, 410. Even though Rome was no longer capital of the empire, the sack was a profound shock for the people of the empire.
The Roman Empire nevertheless remained an important power in Europe, both militarily and economically. Hence Germanic groups on the run from the Huns were anxious to make peace; even the Visigoths accepted a settlement in Gaul in 418. Since Germanic peoples had no sense of either common interests or common identity, they could be played off against one another; thus the Vandals were savaged by the Visigoths between 416 and 418. Until about 450 fear of the Huns meant that the empire could, in moments of crisis, mobilize at least Visigoths, Burgundians (received into Gaul after being defeated by the Huns in 439), and Franks for its defense. Soon after Attila's death in 453, however, the Hun empire collapsed, and Rome lost this diplomatic weapon. It also suffered a progressive loss of revenue as territories were either occupied or—like Britain—abandoned by the imperial government. The balance thus swung further in the Germanic peoples' favour, and they eventually declared themselves independent. In the 470s a Visigothic kingdom emerged in southwestern Gaul and later gained control of most of the Iberian Peninsula. Meanwhile, a Burgundian kingdom arose in southeastern Gaul, and Clovis created a Frankish kingdom in the north. The Vandals already controlled North Africa and the Suebi part of Spain, and Gepid and Lombard kingdoms dominated the Danube. A band of Germans, led by Odoacer, deposed the last Roman emperor, Romulus Augustulus, in 476 and set up a kingdom in Italy. Ostrogoths freed by the collapse of the Hun empire struggled for a generation to find a new homeland. Their struggles sometimes brought them into conflict with the Eastern Empire, whose ruler, Zeno, sought to mitigate the situation by elevating the Ostrogothic king, Theodoric, to the office of patrician. When this solution failed, Zeno sent Theodoric against Odoacer. Theodoric ultimately defeated Odoacer and established a successful Ostrogothic kingdom in Italy that lasted from 493 to 555.
These Germanic successor states brought the Roman Empire in western Europe to an end. The empire could have resisted any of them singly, but the Hun invasions had pushed too many Germanic groups across the frontier too quickly. Battles, however, were the exception. More often the empire unwillingly, but peacefully, granted areas for settlement, and, as Rome became increasingly weaker, the local Roman provincial population looked to the newly settled Germanic peoples for protection. This period thus continued the transformation of the Germanic world. Because of the danger from Rome and the Huns, Germanic political units again increased in size. The new Germanic groups also fell under the influence of the Roman populations they came to rule. Literate, educated Romans enabled German kings systematically to raise taxation and expand their legal powers. The successor states to the Roman Empire were thus a fusion of Germanic military power and the administrative know-how of Roman provincial aristocrats. Transformation was complete in these regions when Germanic warrior and Roman provincial elites quickly intermarried, bringing into being a new aristocracy that was to shape medieval Europe.
Within the boundaries of present-day Germany, the Hunnish conquest drove Germanic peoples out of the region to the east of the Elbe and Saale rivers during the early 5th century. This area was subsequently settled by peoples speaking Slavic languages, and present-day eastern Germany remained Slavic for some seven centuries. To the west and south, Germanic peoples such as the eastern Franks, Frisians, Saxons, Thuringians, Alemanni, and Bavarians—all speaking West Germanic dialects—had merged Germanic and borrowed Roman cultural features. It was among these groups that a German language and ethnic identity would gradually develop during the Middle Ages.
Merovingians and Carolingians
When the Western Roman Empire ended in 476, the Germanic tribes west of the Rhine were not politically united. The West Germanic tribes, however, spoke dialects of a common language and shared social and political traditions. These traditions had been influenced by centuries of contact with the Roman world, both as federated troops within the empire and as participants in the broader political and economic network that extended beyond the Roman frontier. In particular a strongly military structure of social organization, under the direction of commanders termed kings or dukes, had developed among the federated tribes within the empire and spread to tribes living outside the empire proper. Likewise, the Ostrogothic kings in Italy extended their influence over much of the Germanic world north of the Alps.
Merovingian Germany
The Franks, settled in Romanized Gaul and western Germany, rejected Ostrogothic leadership and began to expand their kingdom eastward. Clovis's eventual conversion to Catholic Christianity improved the position of the Franks in their new kingdom because it earned them the support of the Catholic population and hierarchy of late Roman Gaul. Clovis and his successors, particularly Theodebert I (reigned 534–548), brought much of what would later constitute Germany under Frankish control by conquering the Thuringians of central Germany and the Alemanni and Bavarians of the south. Generally, these heterogeneous groups were given a law code that included Frankish and local traditions and were governed by a duke of mixed Frankish and indigenous background who represented the Frankish king. In times of strong central rule, as under Dagobert I (629–639), this leadership could have real effect. When the Frankish realm was badly divided or embroiled in civil wars, however, local dukes enjoyed great autonomy. This was particularly true of the Bavarian Agilolfings, who were closely related to the Lombard royal family of Italy and who by the 8th century enjoyed virtual royal status. In the north the Frisians and Saxons remained independent of Frankish control into the 8th century, preserving their own political and social structures and remaining for the most part pagan. In areas under Frankish lordship, Christianity made considerable progress through the efforts of native Raetians in the Alpine regions, of wandering Irish missionaries, and of transplanted Frankish aristocrats who supported monastic foundations.
The rise of the Carolingians and Boniface
By the end of the 7th century and the beginning of the 8th, Merovingian authority throughout the Frankish world had been seriously diminished by internal divisions among rival noble factions. Although the dynasty would retain possession of the crown until 751, it was effectively replaced by a rising power, the Carolingian family, which controlled the office of mayor of the palace. The Carolingians, or Pippinids as they are known in their early days, first rose to power in the second decade of the 7th century when they assisted Chlothar II in the overthrow of Queen Brunhild. Their leader, Pippin I, was rewarded with the office of mayor, and his descendants would use the office as a means to enhance their power. However, both the Merovingians and Carolingians faced the claims of rival aristocratic families, including the Agilolfings, who also held the office of mayor of the palace. The victory of Pippin II over the Agilolfing mayor at the battle of Tertry in 687 reunited the kingdom in the name of the Merovingian king Theuderic IV and signaled the rising power of the Carolingians. Pippin's son, Charles Martel, after a struggle with Pippin's widow, assumed his father's position and came to be the leading figure in the realm. His position was so secure that he was able to rule during the last three years of his life without a Merovingian king on the throne, and he also was able to divide the kingdom between his two sons as the Merovingians had traditionally done.
The early Carolingians consolidated control over the Frankish heartland and the duchies east of the Rhine, partly by supporting the missionary activities of churchmen who espoused Roman hierarchical forms of ecclesiastical organization that favoured political centralization; looser indigenous and Irish ecclesiastical structures meanwhile lost ground. Frankish penetration followed a pattern in which communities or churches were settled on land newly won from forest or marsh and granted them by their Carolingian protectors. Thus, from Frisia in the north to Bavaria in the south, religious, economic, and political penetration went hand in hand. A distinguished part was played by Anglo-Saxon missionaries, who linked the Frankish world not only with the high culture of their homeland but also with Rome. One of the most prominent of these was St. Willibrord (c. 658–739), who worked as a missionary and Frankish agent among the Frisians and later the Thuringians. Of even greater significance was Willibrord's disciple St. Boniface (c. 675–754), the "apostle of Germany," who preached the Word to the pagan Germans and introduced religious reform to the Frankish church. Supported by Charles Martel, Boniface led missions into Franconia, Thuringia, and Bavaria, where he founded or restructured diocesan organization on a Roman model. In 742, with the support of the new mayors of the palace Pippin and Carloman, he played a large part in the first council of the new German church. By the time of his martyrdom at the hands of northern Frisians, all the continental Germanic peoples except the Saxons were well on the way toward integration into a Roman-Frankish ecclesiastical structure.
Boniface's missionary activities and religious reforms also influenced political developments in the Frankish kingdom. His close contact and frequent correspondence with the pope in Rome reinforced a developing trend in the Frankish world that involved the increasing devotion to St. Peter and his vicar. When Charles Martel's son and successor, Pippin, sought justification for his usurpation of the Frankish throne in 750, he appealed to Pope Zacharias, asking whether the person with the title or the power should be king. In the following year, Pippin assumed the throne and was crowned by the bishops of his realm, including, according to one account, the pope's representative in the Frankish kingdom, St. Boniface. Three years later, Pope Stephen II traveled to Pippin's kingdom to seek aid from the king against the Lombards. While there, Stephen strengthened the alliance with the Carolingians and Pippin's claim to the throne when he crowned Pippin and, according to some accounts, Pippin's sons Carloman and the future Charlemagne.

Hedge funds may have weathered last month's market turbulence better than most, but most still suffered in the first month of the New Year.
Overall, the Credit Suisse/Tremont Hedge Fund Index shed 1.48% last month. Last year's darling, emerging markets, took it on the chin, though long/short equity was by far the most down in the dumps in January. The former fell 2.67%, while the latter was down 4.05%.
Event-driven funds were also awash in red, dropping 2.44%. Particularly hard-hit were event-driven multi-strategy funds, which lost 2.94% on the month.
Multi-strategy and convertible arbitrage funds were also losers, dropping 1.81% and 0.53%, respectively.
But, as Credit Suisse Index Co. President Oliver Schupp notes, there is a silver lining. "Despite this turbulent market environment, five out of ten hedge fund sectors ended January on a positive note."
Unsurprisingly, none was more positive than dedicated short-bias, which added 5.68%. Global macro and managed futures funds also enjoyed big gains, rising 4.44% and 4.13%, respectively. Equity-market neutral and fixed-income arbitrage returned 0.69% and 0.28%, respectively.
