it cost $60 to rent a $29 truck. the hidden fees make me feel like I got cheated. I think you should be more upfront with what it actually cost
The staff at both Minot and Grand Forks Locations we're very professional and helpful. This is what customer service is supposed to look like.. If I could I would recommend all for raises with promotions...they're ready!!!
staff was very efficient. Checking vehicle out and back in was very quick. Excellent location and selection of vehicles.
Had problems with my drop off location. Called Minot and let them know the issues and they were so great. They handled the situation for me and I was very grateful. Definitely great customer service. Thank you
They gave our truck away . Had to wait until next day to pick up a smaller one after had reservation atleast three weeks . Second time this has happened to us !
I don't know anything.
Never received quality inspection form to fill out for our U-Haul truck and trailer, which was previously damaged prior to our pick up. Was not informed on specific mile requirements on cross-country travel or the fact that we would be charged additional fees for any mileage over the allowed estimate. This is the first time I have moved cross country with U-Haul and I would never recommend it to anyone. I was very disappointed in the lack of information given my your company.
This uhaul saved my entire trip after a person from the marina location across from sportman's loft nearly destroyed it. They were heart felt, helpful, dedicated, and had great customer service. The marina location never called and went home early for the day and left me stranded, then I called the Fargo headquarters to see how to alleviate the problem and the woman in short words said she couldn't do anything.
The location at N. Broadway as said before was great and helped me find a truck and trailer. If it wasn't for them I would have never used uhaul again.
The location is excellent & the UHaul employee's were extremely helpful and friendly!! The only problem I had was that the trailer I rented had 3 out of 4 tires that were so different, it was very hard to keep the trailer from fish-tailing & bouncing all over the road? I could barely do 55??? I still would have no problems using UHaul for my next move!! This was the only time I have had any complaints!
Better break down of the charges that are incurred with a rental. I came in expecting to pay 30$ for the truck and 15 for the insurance. Ended up spending over 100 for one day. I feel like if it was better advertised what extra charges I would be paying I would've been more prepared and a more satisfied customer. I felt a little deceived, and rushed into signing the contract and reading the pin pad.
Everything went real good. I have no suggestions for improvement .
Everything worked good.
Very fast, easy effortless checkin
Maintain the customer service
Need more people to not wait so long when getting the truck and when dropping it back off
staff was very friendly and helpful. I think some had not been working there long and needed to ask for help. But I was treated well and return was easy.
I wish all business managers could run their business this well. Everyone was extremely helpful, courteous and friendly. Would definitely recommend this U-Haul location!!! It was a pleasure doing business with them.
Don't change anything. It's fine.
Slow customer service
I told the guy when I went to drop off the enclosed trailer that I had a problem with the breaks each time I attempted to go in reverse. He then asked me to back the trailer into a spot with other trailers. One not my job and two yes they locked up on me again. At which point I said I would unhook the trailer and push it back for him and that's when a younger employee said no need sir and took over.
Faster service seemed to be ignored when I arrived waited a long time to be helped
Be more personable to customers. The first person I dealt with was rude and very short. He was absolutely no help. They dropped the ball twice with the rental truck and whom to charge for it.
They put our hitch on wrong. Did not put the clip on the pin.Our trailer flew off going down the freeway the chains were still attached throwing our trailer and car side to side with no control down the freeway. How we did not flip is beyond me and almost killing me and my two young boys. I have never been so scared in my life! Please do not have them put it on and have a professional check it I'd you don't know how too.
Did great!
Everything was fine. Always a return customer.

7 of 8 people found the following review helpful
A fascinating read,
This review is from: The Incredible Human Journey (Hardcover)
With this book, Alice Roberts has succeeded in providing the general reader with a clear and accessible introduction to our ancient human ancestry. She visits some of the key sites in the field and examines the evidence first-hand. Current theories are expounded with great lucidity and woven into an entertaining account of her travels. Several journeys are undertaken which require considerable stamina, such as the trek to the Omo findspot in sweltering heat; the long voyage by raft in the Indonesian islands; and the cold and lengthy sleigh-ride in Siberia. But Alice is equally bold in her approach to garnering evidence: she is not afraid to challenge the views held by experts and frequently offers possible alternative explanations.
The book is nicely illustrated with sketches, maps and photos, whilst the text manages to combine erudition with 'the personal touch'. So for anyone wanting to find out more about our human origins, 'The Incredible Human Journey' would make a great starting-point.

Capitalist economies and wage inequality
AbstractThis article presents new stylized facts on the incidence of low pay and mobility out of low pay for 13 European countries and the USA. Women, the young, the less skilled, and part-timers are generally most at risk, as are those who work in retail, hotels, catering, and personal services. However, the relative importance of these characteristics can vary from country to country. The incidence of low pay varies considerably across countries, as does its trend. No direct link is found to aggregate employment or to the employment rate of the less skilled. Nor does the industrial structure of employment have much effect. However, differences between the low-wage production of goods and of services are important. 'Inclusive' labour relations are central in containing the incidence of low-pay. By inclusiveness is meant the existence of mechanisms, formal or informal, to extend terms and conditions negotiated by workers with strong bargaining power to workers with less bargaining power. In some countries a national minimum wage is an essential accompaniment. The article considers the extent to which countries can maintain the more benign institutions that limit low pay.

For the sixth time in the past six years, Tiger Woods is injured and will miss a tournament because of it. The No. 1 player in the world is bailing on his own party, the AT&T National at Congressional, to rest and recover from the elbow strain that bubbled to the surface last week at the U.S. Open, where he finished 13-over par and set a variety of new personal worsts. This was supposed to be the season of Tiger in full once again, but at the midpoint, he's 0-for-2 at the majors and dealing with another physical ailment that could put the rest of the year in doubt.
The momentum of his season is again stunted by a 37-year-old body that's become the biggest inhibitor of the Jack Nicklaus majors chase. In good health, he achieved total comfort in his Sean Foley redesigned swing and spent much of his practice time working on his short game, which carried him to four early 2013 wins. This was the season he was supposed to stop being stuck on 14, the overwhelming favorite at the Masters and at Merion, which he prepped for by winning The Players in a style that the U.S. Open setup would demand.
The injury occurred during "one of the rounds" at the Players, a tournament where Tiger had withdrawn due to injury in two of the previous three years. It's a venue where he's never been quite comfortable, but this year's Tiger, the one who's "back," rolled to his fourth victory of the season and emasculated Sergio Garcia along the way.
Tiger being Tiger, the injury went undisclosed until it became observable early in his first round at Merion. With the injury in view, it was impossible to accurately assess his form at the U.S. Open and in an underwhelming week at the intervening Memorial. Whether it was the injury or not, Tiger lost it all at both events.
Since his last major championship win in 2008, all the perfect moments for a crescendo with Woods have resulted in bitter disappointment. But this year was different, the "process" was working and Woods was once again No. 1. A bad break at Augusta and now an injury have derailed the return to golf's natural order, and may result in yet another lost summer for Woods. It's now been a series of lost summers for Woods, whose body has not held up through the prime of his career in his 30s. A rundown of the batch of ailments that he's dealt with from age 32 to this month (with an assist from Shane Bacon and GolfChannel.com):
April 2008: Shortly after the Masters, Woods has arthroscopic knee surgery on damaged cartilage in his left knee.
June 2008: Tiger wins the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines on one leg. After beating Rocco Mediate in a 19-hole Monday playoff, his 2008 season is over with the most serious injury he's had in his career -- a torn ACL and cartilage as well as a stress fracture in the left leg.
May 2010: Out of contention at The Players, Woods walks off the course and into the training trailer with what is originally believed to be a bulging disc (although Golf Channel's Win McMurry states otherwise). The injury is later revealed as a joint problem in his neck, and Tiger keeps his regular schedule and does not miss his next start.
April 2011: Tiger injures his knee again taking a full cut off the pine straw on No. 17 at the Masters. He withdraws from the Wells Fargo Championship at Quail Hollow to rest the left knee as well as a sore Achilles, a new injury that's revealed in the announcement to WD.
May 2011: After resting the knee and Achilles, Tiger makes a go at The Players but withdraws for the second straight year at Sawgrass. This time, he bows out on his first nine holes as opposed to the Sunday WD in 2010. He cites continued problems with both the knee and Achilles. It's later announced that Tiger has a sprained MCL and a strained Achilles, which force him to miss both the U.S. Open and the British Open.
March 2012: Another Sunday WD for Tiger, but this time at one of his favorite annual stops -- Doral. Tiger cites issues with the Achilles again, leaving the course with seven holes to play in the tournament and having his car tracked by Miami news helicopters.
Until this month, that withdrawal at Doral would be the last real sign of injury trouble for Tiger, who went on to end his winless streak just two weeks later at Bay Hill. It was the start of a 13-month, seven-win stretch that propelled him back to No. 1 and the game's most dominant, intimidating player. Just two months ago, with Woods on the verge of his third win of the season at Bay Hill, Golf Channel's Brandel Chamblee, a notorious Tiger critic, exclaimed: "You're talking about golf's most predictable, golf's most animated man. And he's on the verge of doing to this generation's psyche what he did to the previous generation's psyche."
Now we're left with another flameout at the U.S. Open and an injury that will keep him on the shelf until the British Open. The elbow strain may be something or it may be nothing, but we never know anymore with Woods, who continues to come up empty on the weekends at majors.
It appeared Tiger was once again a sure thing in 2013, but much like his previous five seasons, we're back to wondering if his body will hold up, and even if it does, are his mind and game in form and free of that concern? Weighed down and consumed by the chase of Nicklaus, a goal he put above his bed as a child, is Tiger gripping the club a little tighter coming down the stretch at majors? His putting and short game, two areas that brought him back to No. 1, have not been the same at the majors. Is that because of injury, or the burden of the one outstanding career goal and the knowledge that the opportunities are dwindling?
For a sustained stretch, Tiger played golf better than anyone ever has in the history of the game. It's a ridiculous standard that we continue to measure him by, but one that's no longer reachable. The seven wins over the past 13 months is dominance, but it's never crescendoed in that majors moment. A couple years ago, Brian Phillips of Grantland wrote one of the best sports essays I've ever read, describing the "still life" of Roger Federer. It's that in-between stage where a once greatest athlete has still got it but is no longer consistently matching the standard he previously set. I'll let Phillips explain (I'd like to excerpt the whole thing as the entire essay is worth reading):
"The saddest moment in the career of a great athlete is the one when he's tagged with the word "still." One day you're fast. One day you're slow. There's an in-between day when you're 'still fast,' and that's the day when everything hollows out.
What this means, though, is that Federer has become something rarer and stranger, something arguably even more interesting. He's still good enough to win any tournament he enters, but he's always surrounded by that vague sadness, the result of his no longer being free from time."
This year, Tiger was back to being great, the best player in the world capable of and favored to win every tournament he entered. But his first two opportunities passed with a ricochet off the pin at No. 15 and an elbow injury, leaving just Muirfield and Oak Hill to prevent a fifth straight lost summer.
It once seemed that Tiger would blow past Jack's record before he was 35. There's now entertainment value in the added drama of what was once inevitable. Tiger will win another major, but five more? The mixture of injury problems and personal scandal have already combined to wash away five prime years. With those issues subsiding, this year he was finally back to focusing only on his golf game and a return to most-favored status. Now, we're again left wondering if another injury will saddle him at a British Open venue where he's already posted high numbers, or if it's just a blip that forces an unplanned week off. A reminder that we never know anymore with Woods, who's no longer free from time.
With an eye always on the majors, missing his own tournament is supposed to be another precautionary measure as he preps for Muirfield, a course where he shot 81 and also flamed out when The Open Championship last stopped at that venue. After that, it's Oak Hill, another classic (but longer) layout like Merion and where the PGA's Kerry Haigh will surely have the rough nice and gnarly, of little comfort to Tiger's elbow.
There will be many more years of majors with Tiger in attendance, and we're always quick to point to Jack winning at the age of 46 as some sort of cushion or ceiling for Woods. But that was a perfect, almost "mystical" confluence of circumstances for Jack, who by his own admission "wasn't really a golfer" anymore. Woods could be winning majors into his 50s, but based on everything we've seen over the past five seasons, golf's "most predictable" is now an unpredictable, aging piece of machinery in annual need of repair. Will 72 holes at Muirfield be possible, and in what form? See you in a month, maybe.

Ask Us >
Explosives, firearms, knives and other weapons >
Is it illegal to carry a knife around in my pocket?
It's illegal to carry any sharp or bladed instrument in a public
place, with the exception of a folding pocket knife which has a
blade less than 7.62 cm (3 inches) long.
A lock knife is not a folding pocket knife and therefore it's
illegal to carry around regardless of the length of the blade.
A lock knife means a knife which is similar to a folding knife,
in that there is a spring holding the blade closed. However, a lock
knife has a mechanism which locks the blade in position when fully
extended and the blade cannot be closed without that mechanism
being released. A lock knife is not automatically an offensive
weapon because these knives were made with a specific purpose in
mind and not as a weapon. However, possession of a lock knife in a
public place without reasonable excuse is an offence.
Possession of a multi-tool incorporating a prohibited blade or
pointed article is capable of being an offence under this section
even if there are other tools on the instrument which may be of use
to a person in a public place.
The ban is not total, but it's for the person in possession of
such an instrument to prove on the balance of probabilities that he
or she had good reason for its possession. For example, someone
backpacking across the Lake District may reasonably be expected to
have a knife for the preparation of meals. It will be far more
difficult to justify on the streets of a city or town, but there
will be occasions when someone is genuinely going to something like
a martial arts class or scout meeting.
The penalty for committing this offence is a maximum prison
sentence of four years.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Lots of good qualities...Posted Aug 22, 2014
Pros: see review
Cons: see review
Location: There is nothing to do nearby. The hotel and golf course are secluded.
Nice setting, but much further from the airport than advertised on the site. It's easily a 15 minute drive from the airport. The check in/check out staff were extremely welcoming, helpful, and friendly. We had an enjoyable dinner in the restaurant. The food was very good, but the service was terribly slow. The breakfast options were what you'd expect, as was the quality of the rooms. The shuttle to the airport was a welcome option.

Pros: Quiet location.
Cons: Temperature of pool water. Breakfast selection.
Location: Both Swords and Mallahide are close with good selection of restaurants.

Pros: It was the cleanest hotel I've ever stayed at. The room was beautiful and the bed was so comfortable, we had a great nights' sleep. Helpful staff
Cons: Our room had a lovely bath but there was only hair and body shampoo and I had to ask for more coffee for our room.
Location: Close to Dublin airport and Malahide which is a great town to visit. Signposts in the area are not good.

Relaxing, Peaceful Great FacilitiesPosted Jul 29, 2014
Pros: Nice, helpful staff, good food, peaceful location and convenient.
Cons: No cashpoint and refused cashback by staff travelling by taxi this made things awkward
Location: 15 minutes to Fairyhouse Racecourse, many other attractions and walks nearby
I booked this hotel as it was not too far from the airport, Dublin city or Fairyhouse Racecourse and I needed to go to al three. Very welcoming staff and a lovely country house feel. There was an enormous wedding going on when I arrived which went on into the evening with irish dancing and a disco. I was dubious I would get any peace or even a decent meal as there were lots of staff involved. I need not have worried, I had an excellent mean in the restaurant and my room was very peaceful for a great nights sleep. The restaurant was very quiet but the staff were polite, attentive enough and the food was superb.I had a fantastic breakfast and ate in the bar the following night, again great food. Also a good wine list. There is a great pool, spa and gym here and the views over the golf course are gorgeous. I would definitely stay again.

June 2014 StayPosted Jun 27, 2014
We stayed for 1 night in June. Was 1 of the hottest days in about 7-8 years. Rooms don't usully require air conditioning so it was quute hot. No fault of the hotel of course. We went for a drink and dinner in the restaurant/pub. Was a good experience. Hotel as an airport shuttle. We specifically chose this hotel for tue shuttle. Expedia said free shuttle. The hotel front desk had a sign saying that the shuttle was €5/psn each way. We never ended up getting charged and nobody mentioned anyhing... Then, due to the hotel shuttle not starting early enough, we had to take a cab at our own expense, back to the airport. €21. That was very frustrating. We specifically chose this hotel for its shuttle service. Overall, I would go back to this property, as it's in the country and in a quiet location. It wouldn't be my first choice, but also not my last.

Posted Jun 14, 2014
Pros: Food was good
Disappointing because it was advertised to have an airport shuttle but only runs limited hours and there's a fee! Also no one at front desk in the early am No one to assist with bags and luggage And the wifi doesn't work anywhere else but the lobby

Quite and close to airport...feels like dorm room.Posted Jun 7, 2014
Pros: Hot wings in the bar were great, best I have had in a number of years.
Cons: Replace or re-stretch carpeting, wait staff need to be more attentive, replace tiny tiny TV, and re-design wireless network.
Location: Swords is only a few miles away for a few restaurants for dinner and a nice park next to the castle for a after dinner walk.
Booked a couple of days at this resort since it was very close to the airport, we just wanted to relax for the day before we flew out of Ireland after a stay of a couple of weeks. Rooms were fairly large and clean with high ceilings, carpets were very thin with large bubbles in them.....felt like we were in a cheap college dorm room. The TV was small small small....I didn't even think they made anything that small anymore.. 14 or 15 inches maybe......granted we weren't there to lay in the room and watch TV but even trying to watch the news in the morning was distracting. Atmosphere in the bar was nice and bar food was pretty good (great wings)....but the wait staff wasn't on their game, had to ask for things twice in about four or five instances.....despite over tipping during previous visits. Wireless network was fragmented with numerous hubs with passwords that gave my girlfriends iPhone fits......why password a wireless hub in a building in the middle of a golf course, who is there to protect against?

Nice quiet hotel with friendly staffPosted Jun 5, 2014
Pros: Staff, comfort, food
Cons: Nothing really, was very satisfied
Location: I was on business so no idea
I stayed here on business and was greeted by a very friendly receptionist and breakfast guy was very attentive in the morning. The rooms were very clean and I had a great nights sleep, very important when you travel around a lot. I would recommend it. The only downside is that I came back very late one night and the roads were pitch black but that's not the Hotel's fault.

This week news became public that the Allamanda Laguna Phuket condo hotel operation is planning to cease operations at the end of July.
The property is one of the island's earliest hospitality led residential projects and has operated for close to two decades.
Originally Allamanda came under the management arm of the Banyan Tree resort, though eventually it became a Best Western franchise and more recently was an independent entity.
Early purchasers of the units consisted of both end users and investment type buyers, with many looking for recurring yields under a resort-style set up.
For some owners now, they will be unfortunately left on their own to seek out rentals either directly or through agents.
Reflecting on the situation at a time when hotel branded residences increasingly coming into the marketplace, it's a prudent reminder to potential purchasers that the hotel managed unit they are buying today may not always be a viable investment in the long term.
Here in Thailand issues over difficulty in obtaining hotel licenses for real estate led projects and the potential inability to ensure a certain brand or management can be secured in a condominium structure over the expected lifetime of the property create a certain element of risk.
Investors need to be fully aware of the long-term implications of hotel branded residences and while a good number are well-operated properties, there remains the flip side of the coin as well with possible downside.

Father Jeremy Paulin, OMV, To Be Interviewed on Live Talk Show of the CatholicTV® Network
Catholic PRWire
WATERTOWN, MA (January 5, 2012) –Father Jeremy Paulin, OMV, To Be Interviewed on Live Talk Show of the CatholicTV® Network.
On January 6, 2012, Father Jeremy Paulin will be featured on the CatholicTV Network's nationally broadcasted live talk show; This is the Day, to discuss the Oblates of the Virgin Mary.
Father Paulin, Vocations Director, will discuss the Oblates of the Virgin Mary; a fraternity dedicated to preaching retreats and reviving the Church. Approved by Pope Leo XII on September 1, 1826, the Oblates of the Virgin Mary quickly expanded throughout Italy and into France and Austria. Following the missionary spirit of the Founder, the Oblates eventually established foreign missions in Brazil and Argentina, and recently in Nigeria and the Philippines.
After a surge in the number of vocations from North America in the 1970′s, the Oblates came to the United States and Canada. They established the community in Boston on September 12, 1976, and opened the doors to Our Lady of Grace Seminary two years later. St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine, situated just a few blocks from Fenway Park in Boston's Back Bay, represents the heart of the U.S. Province. The Shrine is a vibrant spiritual center for students, young adults, professional men and women, local residents and visitors to the city. Established as the Boston Archdiocesan Eucharistic Shrine in 1935, St. Clement's continues to offer perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. To learn more visit: www.omvusa.org.
Also on Friday's episode of This is the Day will be Mother Mary Clare. Mother Mary Clare is the Superior of a community of cloistered Carmetlite nuns living the charism of St. Teresa through a hidden life of unceasing contemplative prayer in the service of the Church. The community is located in Terre Haute, Indiana and is made up of women from several countries. To learn more visit: www.heartsawake.org.
Friday's episode of This is the Day will also debut a new segment called Faith Out Loud. This brief segment (10-60 seconds) from a teen or young adult will spotlight their favorite aspect of the Catholic faith. This Friday, January 6, 2012, tune in to see Mary Beth from Charleston, South Carolina speaking about her love of Eucharistic Adoration and how it has taught her to express her faith in journaling and reflection.

Japanese defense contractor admits hackers may have snatched secrets
'Possibility of some data leakage,' says country's largest defense supplier of jet, nuclear power plant info
Computerworld - Japan's largest defense contractor backpedaled yesterday, saying it's possible some secrets had been stolen by hackers who broke into the company's network and planted malware in August.
The acknowledgement came several weeks after Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, confirming that scores of its servers and PCs had been infected, denied any information had been pilfered.
Previously, a U.S.-based Mitsubishi Heavy spokesman had said that although attackers had uncovered company IP (Internet Protocol) addresses, the attack "was caught at an early stage."
But yesterday the company changed its tune, saying that more investigation had revealed a possible loss of information.
"The company recently confirmed unintended transferring of some information on the company's products and technologies between servers within the company," said Mitsubishi Heavy in a statement. "Based on the finding, the company investigated the incident further and recognized the possibility of some data leakage from the server in question."
The company declined to confirm that any diversion of data related to defense or nuclear technologies took place.
Mitsubishi Heavy's admission came on the same day that the Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun cited unnamed sources who said data on company-built fighter jets, helicopters and nuclear power plants had apparently been stolen during the attack.
Last month, Mitsubishi Heavy said that among the 83 compromised servers and PCs were ones at its Kobe shipyards, where the company builds diesel-electric submarines and components for nuclear power plants; at the company's Nagasaki shipyards; and at its Nagoya plant, which designs and manufactures missile guidance systems.
The firm's corporate headquarters was also targeted by attackers.
Mitsubishi Heavy said it was continuing to investigate and would cooperate with Japanese authorities, who have been involved since late September when the company filed a complaint with the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, said Asahi Shimbun.
The August attack was the first against a major Japanese defense contractor, but followed others earlier this year aimed at U.S. companies, including Lockheed Martin, which manufactures the F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II fighter aircraft. The Lockheed attack was carried out using information stolen earlier from RSA Security, the branch of EMC that produces the SecurID two-factor authentication token used by thousands of contractors and corporations to secure their networks.
Defense News ranked Mitsubishi Heavy as the world's 26th-largest defense contractor last year.

Start the Claims Filing Process as Soon as Possible After the Storm Has Passed, Says I.I.I.
NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Policyholders with questions regarding their coverage for damage caused by Hurricane Sandy should call the phone number provided on their policy or contact their insurance agent. Those policyholders unable to get to their policies can contact special toll-free numbers set up by insurance companies, according to the Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.).
To make finding the contact information for your insurance company easier, the I.I.I. has compiled a list: Insurance Company Claims Filing Telephone Numbers.
"Keep in mind that due to high call volume in the wake of a disaster, it may take some time to get through on some numbers—so please be patient," said Jeanne Salvatore, senior vice president of Public Affairs with the I.I.I.
For more information on filing a claim, the Insurance Information Institute has a free brochure, Settling Insurance Claims after a Disaster.
The I.I.I. has a full library of educational videos on its YouTube Channel. Information about I.I.I. mobile apps can be found here.

The Shadow of the Sun
Posted March 8, 2010
The Shadow of the Sun- Outstanding! (:
This book, The Shadow of the Sun, was amazing. What I loved most was having come upon an adventure through reading something I have never experienced before. I usually stick to the books that explore more modern day, instead of branching out to other ideas in different time periods. I am so glad I read this book because what I read was not something out of the ordinary but it showed different life styles around the world in different cultures. This book is set in 1957, where Ryszard Kapuscinski, even though there are others who travel, observes and writes about what he sees as an African correspondent. I loved the writers craft because of the deep intelligence to write as much as he did about so much. It is highly detailed and heartfelt; the author has explored the mountains of high, lightly populated ground where journalism and literature occur. It is a close-up that is filled with faces, landscapes, rutted roads, and the daily dangers of African life. He crushes a cobra to save his life, moves with nomads through Somalia, and waits to die from thirst beneath a truck in the Sahara. The author changes between plain imagery, using understatement to show easy stereotypes about Africa and Africans, and finishes with a paragraph with dazzling revelation that leaves you wanting more. This astonishing piece of work is something I would recommend to many people and hope they would enjoy it as much as I did.

Kapuscinski is an awesome writer. The poetry of his writing is so absorbing and beautiful. If you have not discovered this book, you have not discovered the real Africa in all its differences and all its varied perspectives. It is so much more multi-dimentional than I had ever suspected, even after reading books like Kafir and Shaka Zulu - this book has opened up so much of the interior of the land and mind of Africa. His writing is so visible I feel like I was there on that incredible journey. Most impressive is his insight. Anything could have been revealed but in his highly speculative eyes, nothing was just as a fact - he saw so much more than many of us would have come away with and --- and this for a white Polish. Very unbiased exploration of the people and the land, credible and enlightening. Don't take my word for it - buy the book. Even if you don't care about the continent - the book does not take you down the usual path of the struggles of apartheid - it is something you feel, not a view being imparted by someone with the burden of a shared history with these people. I highly recommend this author. I also recommend his previous book, The Emporer, which I have been told is twice as great!Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.

A Trip that Will Awe and Inspire
This book encompasses many African countries which the author visits. The trip you feel you are taking along with him not only informs you about things perhaps you never knew existed, the conditions under which they live, the culture as it really is, but he is able to interject into some of the hairy experiences, humor and makes you laugh. While the overall content of the book is not meant to be humorous, he manages to find certain moments and lighten up the feeling you get of being mentally drained, tired and physically depleted. In the end, just like travelling to another country, you finish the book with a different, more informed perspective.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.

hard but amazing
i have read this book in italian a year ago, and was amazed that it had not yet been translated into english. i have since then given it as a present to at least 15 friends/acquaintances. for the first time in my life i had the impression that some one had decided to tell the truth about africa, a truth that is so incredibly unpleasant and yet so extremely interesting. the experiences kapuszinsky shares are unique, have a very unusual 'cut' and are in some ways enlightning. i recommend this book to whoever is interested in learning about a continent but is not keen on fairy tales. this makes any other journalistic accounts that i have read of the events in question sound biased (and blush for naivity). a real tough eye-opener!Was this review helpful?
