(202) 512-4800
In 2003, the Federal Protective Service (FPS) was transferred from the General Services Administration (GSA) to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and is currently tasked with providing physical security and law enforcement services to about 8,800 facilities owned or leased by GSA. To accomplish its mission, FPS currently has a workforce of about 1,100 employees and about 15,000 contract guards located throughout the country. While there has not been a large-scale attack on a domestic federal facility since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and the 1995 terrorist attack on the Oklahoma City Federal Building, it is important that FPS has sufficient resources and an effective approach to protect federal employees and members of the public that work in and visit federal facilities from the risk of crime and terrorist attacks. GAO was asked to provide information and analysis on (1) the extent to which FPS is fulfilling its mission to protect federal employees and facilities and (2) the management challenges FPS faces. To address these objectives, GAO analyzed FPS staffing data and interviewed numerous FPS officials, GSA, tenant agencies, and local police departments.
Due to staffing and operational issues, FPS is experiencing difficulties in fully meeting its facility protection mission. According to many FPS officials at regions we visited, these difficulties may expose federal facilities to a greater risk of crime or terrorist attack. FPS' workforce has decreased by nearly 20 percent from almost 1,400 in fiscal year 2004 to about 1,100 at the end of fiscal year 2007. In fiscal year 2007, FPS had about 756 inspectors and police officers, and about 15,000 contract guards who are used primarily to monitor facilities through fixed post assignments and access control. FPS is also implementing a policy to change the composition of its workforce whereby it will essentially eliminate the police officer position and mainly utilize inspectors. One consequence of this change is that, with the exception of a few locations, FPS is not providing proactive patrols in and around federal facilities in order to detect and prevent criminal incidents and terrorism related activities before they occur. FPS has also reduced its hours of operation in many locations and has not always maintained security countermeasures and equipment such as security cameras, magnetometers, x-ray machines, radios, building security assessment equipment, and access control systems at some facilities we visited. For example, at one location we visited, a deceased individual had been found, after three months, in a vacant GSA facility that was not regularly patrolled by FPS. FPS continues to face several management challenges that, according to many FPS officials at regions we visited, have hampered its ability to accomplish its facility protection mission. These include budgetary challenges, a lack of adequate contract guard oversight, and the absence of agreements with local police departments regarding response capabilities or jurisdictional issues at federal facilities. Historically and recently, FPS' revenues have not been sufficient to cover its operational costs. To address its recent revenue shortfall FPS has restricted hiring and travel, limited training and overtime, and eliminated employee performance awards. These measures have had a negative effect on staff morale, contributed to FPS' high attrition rates, and may affect the performance and safety of FPS personnel. Moreover, many FPS officials expressed concern about the lack of oversight of the 15,000 contract guards and poor performance by some guards when responding to crime and incidents at federal facilities. FPS has indicated that they are covering facility protection gaps through increased reliance on local law enforcement but it has not signed any agreements with local law enforcement agencies to ensure local assistance or resolved jurisdictional issues, which could authorize local police to respond to some incidents at federal facilities. Multiple local police departments said they were not aware of FPS' expected reliance on their services.

Sweeter Simulation
Once-Separate Silos of Simulation Are Cross-Pollinating Into a Functional Whole From Which Users Can Pick the Elements They Need for Design, Configuration, Training and Process Optimization. Here's What the Buzz Is About
"I love it when a plan comes together," says Col. John "Hannibal" Smith. The cigar-chomping leader of "The A-Team" was talking about his group's cartoonish, live-action TV adventures in the 1980s. However, he might as well have been discussing simulation's multiple and merging roles in many process applications. The confidence and satisfaction is the same.
Slow and costly models applied to only big-ticket applications have long since been joined by faster and less expensive simulations in a wider variety of settings. However, constantly improving and higher fidelity models, new variables and parameters, better software, more powerful computers, 3D displays and other advances are also blurring the lines between simulation's usual categories.
Most notably, static simulations used for design and configuration are being linked to dynamic simulations for operations and training, and these have been enhanced by closer-to-real-time data, which allows them to optimize actual operations, performance and products. As a result, tying and unifying simulation into one multi-functional bundle is letting users pick the capabilities they need without having to implement several different solutions.
For example, Exxon Mobil estimates its process applications worldwide are saving about $750 million per year by using ROMeo optimization software, Pro/II simulation software and other solutions from Invensys Operations Management, according to Joe McMullen, product manager for SimSci-Esscor at Invensys. ROMeo secures and reconciles measurements from Exxon's components, simulates subsequent conditions and courses of action, and recommends which ones will optimize the process and make it most profitable. Likewise, he adds that Royal Dutch Shell is also rolling out ROMeo in several refineries, and so far gains about $1000 in optimization benefits for every $25 it spends on support.
"The ultimate goal is to use one calculation engine for many different purposes," says McMullen. "As long as training simulators and process control systems are on different platforms, keeping them synchronized will continue to be an issue. By contrast, our dynamic modeling tool lets users easily create a model for use in a training simulator by just pressing a button, and our EyeSim 3D, virtual reality training simulator is starting to gain traction too."
Propylene Process Makes Its Own Model
Similarly, the biggest oil company in Sweden, Preem, has integrated Hysys simulation models from Aspen Technology into its DMCplus controller to develop new advanced process controls (APCs) and cut product variation in half. Preem has two refineries including its Preemraff Lysekil refinery that processes 11.4 million tons of crude oil per year (Figure 1), and 500 retail gas stations. In fact, Preemraff was where the company recently addressed the challenge of controlling its propylene/propane (PP) splitter, which is used to separate C3 streams into 99.5% pure, chemical-grade propylene and 98.5% pure propane. Any deviations in quality could affect Preem's profitability because of pure propylene's high market value.
Preem reports it initially tried to use traditional model-predictive control (MPC) for the PP splitter to drive its process to optimum performance and profitability, while still respecting all equipment constraints. However, reliable plant step test data, usually used to create an MPC design, was very difficult to obtain because of excessive settling times and disturbances that prohibited the PP unit from reaching a true steady state. So, Preem's engineers decided to develop the MPC model from data generated by a dynamic simulator instead of the actual process.
Now, it's important to remember that whatever applications that dynamic simulations end up serving these days, their starting point must still be a sound steady-state simulation.
For the PP project, a steady-state Hysys model of the splitter, heat pump and ancillary equipment was reused from a previous study. The Hysys model's predictions of column temperature profile and other variables were validated against plant data. Next, a dynamic simulation was constructed using AspenTech's Hysys Dynamics software by specifying added engineering details, including pressure/flow relationships and equipment dimensions. All basic controllers also were built in the model, which was then checked for consistency and calibrated against process data.

RBI Repo Rate Trend Chart
Repo (Repurchase) rate also known as the benchmark interest rate is the rate at which the RBI lends money to the banks for a short term. When the repo rate increases, borrowing from RBI becomes more expensive. If RBI wants to make it more expensive for the banks to borrow money, it increases the repo rate similarly, if it wants to make it cheaper for banks to borrow money it reduces the repo rate.
Reverse Repo rate is the short term borrowing rate at which RBI borrows money from banks. The Reserve bank uses this tool when it feels there is too much money floating in the banking system. An increase in the reverse repo rate means that the banks will get a higher rate of interest from RBI. As a result, banks prefer to lend their money to RBI which is always safe instead of lending it others (people, companies etc) which is always risky.
Repo Rate signifies the rate at which liquidity is injected in the banking system by RBI, whereas Reverse Repo rate signifies the rate at which the central bank absorbs liquidity from the banks.

SLR Rate, CRR Chart
CRR - Cash Reserve Ratio - Banks in India are required to hold a certain proportion of their deposits in the form of cash. However Banks don't hold these as cash with themselves, they deposit such cash(aka currency chests) with Reserve Bank of India , which is considered as equivalent to holding cash with themselves. This minimum ratio (that is the part of the total deposits to be held as cash) is stipulated by the RBI and is known as the CRR or Cash Reserve Ratio.
When a bank's deposits increase by Rs100, and if the cash reserve ratio is 9%, the banks will have to hold Rs. 9 with RBI and the bank will be able to use only Rs 91 for investments and lending, credit purpose. Therefore, higher the ratio, the lower is the amount that banks will be able to use for lending and investment. This power of Reserve bank of India to reduce the lendable amount by increasing the CRR, makes it an instrument in the hands of a central bank through which it can control the amount that banks lend. Thus, it is a tool used by RBI to control liquidity in the banking system.
SLR - Statutory Liquidity Ratio - Every bank is required to maintain at the close of business every day, a minimum proportion of their Net Demand and Time Liabilities as liquid assets in the form of cash, gold and un-encumbered approved securities. The ratio of liquid assets to demand and time liabilities is known as Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR). RBI is empowered to increase this ratio up to 40%. An increase in SLR also restricts the bank's leverage position to pump more money into the economy.
Call Rate - Inter bank borrowing rate - Interest Rate paid by the banks for lending and borrowing funds needed for daily use. After Lehman Brothers went bankrupt Call Rate sky rocketed to such an insane level that banks stopped lending to other banks.
MSF - Marginal Standing facility - It is a special window for banks to borrow from RBI against approved government securities in an emergency situation like an acute cash shortage. MSF rate is higher then Repo rate. Current MSF Rate: 9%
Base Rate - It is the minimum rate of interest that an individual bank is allowed to charge from its customers. Every bank has its own unique base rate. Unless mandated by the government, RBI rule stipulates that no bank can offer loans at a rate lower than Base Rate to any of its customers. Your home loan will always be equal to or more than the Base Rate but never lower than Base Rate.
Bank Rate - This is the rate(long term) at which central bank (RBI) lends money to other banks or financial institutions. If the bank rate goes up, long-term interest rates also tend to move up, and vice-versa. When bank rate is hiked, banks hike their own lending rates. Current bank rate is 9%

Ninilchik is rich with natural and historic treasures. The village is a bustling fishing community during the summer months, with many saltwater charter tours based here.
While halibut is king in Ninilchik, the annual opening weekend of the king salmon season brings many Alaskans to this natural playground to fish and to dig for razor clams on the nearby shores of Cook Inlet.
The Kenai Peninsula State Fair is held in Ninilchik in August, and rodeos are held each summer at the fairgrounds.
The area's history and culture can be seen in the distinct architecture brought by the Russian Orthodox missionaries who settled here with the region's Dena'ina Indians. Tour the historic Ninilchik Village and see buildings from the late 1800s, including the Melania Curis Home, the Ninilchik Village Cache and the first Russian School House.
You will want to keep your camera handy, as the area offers exceptional views across Cook Inlet, with several pullouts along the highway as you make your drive toward Homer.

Happy Orangeman's Day
Have a Happy July 12th - a day that should be celebrated as a foundation stone of the Anglosphere. And a day hated by bigots, so raise a small glass just to annoy them!
And I have finally found out why a Battle fought on 1st July is celebrated on the 12th...
Battle of the Boyne -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article
Originally, Irish Protestants commemorated the Battle of Aughrim on the 12th of July, as symbolising their victory in the Williamite war in Ireland. At Aughrim, which took place a year after the Boyne - virtually all of the old native Irish Catholic and Old English aristocracies dispossessed of lands to accommodate the newly established colony were wiped out. The Boyne, which in the old Julian calendar, took place on the first of July, was treated as less important, third in commemorative value after Aughrim and the anniversary of the Irish Rebellion of 1641 on the 23rd of October. What was celebrated on the Twelfth was not William's "victory over popery at the Battle of the Boyne", but the extermination of the natural leadership cadre of the native Irish.
However, by the time the Orange Order was founded in the 1790s, amid sectarian violence in Armagh, a new Gregorian calendar had been introduced in which the date of the Boyne was also the twelfth of July. Because the date was more familiar and because the Boyne was more prominent in British history, the Orangemen shifted their main commemoration to the battle of the Boyne, which is still commemorated with parades every year on the Twelfth. There are also smaller parades and demonstrations on the first of July, the old anniversary of the Boyne, which also commemorate the decimation of the 36th Ulster Division on the first day of the battle of the Somme in 1916.
The Battle of the Boyne remains a controversial topic today, especially in Northern Ireland where Protestants remember it as a great victory over Catholics and responsible for the sovereignty of Parliament and the 'protestant monarchy', while Catholics mourn it as a great disaster when the legitimate 'true' king sympathetic to Irish Catholics and Irish nationhood was deposed in a protestant coup — both views having more to do with each sides' agendas and perspectives than any historical facts.

|Chic Spotlight: Tiny Trip Traveler Jennifer Reed
Chic Spotlight: Tiny Trip Traveler Jennifer Reed
When it comes to traveling away from the Queen City for a couple hours, this local lady has become quite the expert. Get tips from her travels and a sneak peek into her new book.
Cincy Chic: You wrote a book about quick trips from Cincinnati, which are all within a five-hour's drive of the city, so how did you first decide to write such a book?
Jennifer Reed, author of Tiny Journeys: Day Trips from the Queen City: I grew up traveling to many of the places I cover in my book. Then, when I got married, I wanted to show my husband all of these places from my childhood.
I'm also passionate about not going for the biggest, brightest entertainment complexes all the time. I think it's sad we live near so many important landmarks and attractions, yet I get a lot of shrugs when I ask people if they've ever been to, say, Serpent Mound. These things are our history, things people should be showing to their children. But I'm willing to bet there are children who have been to more amusement parks than Ohio State Parks. I want to change that.
The part that really led to me firing up the laptop and looking for a publisher, though, was social media. With my Facebook use, people saw my status updates about going on trips nearly every weekend and they started asking me for suggestions. That's when I thought I'd pull together my experiences and write a book.
Cincy Chic: Your book is in the editing process and is set to come out next spring, so what can Cincy Chic readers expect from Tiny Journeys?
Reed: First, the book will be affordable. The publisher is very good about working with authors to set price points, and my goal with this book isn't to make money. It's to get people out and exploring.
Second, there's a hint of the strange and unusual. While I do cover some well-known places, I do so with a twist. I love bigfoot stories and adore local legends. I'm naturally attracted to locations that have something unusual about them. I'm always trying to find out if there's more than meets the eye.
Cemeteries also feature prominently. I think a stop at a graveyard is vital to understanding local history.
Lastly, perhaps the best thing about this book is that many attractions are free! And if they aren't free, you can bet they're under $20.
Until the book comes out, the curious can always visit my blog or contact me on Twitter for trip suggestions.
Cincy Chic: This is for our Weekend Getaway issue, so what are some of the more adventurous getaways you include in your book?
Reed: One of the more ambitious trips for a weekend is to Point Pleasant, W. Va. It's only three hours away, but once you're there, you will be hooked by the legend of the Mothman and the important role of the area in the late 1700s. There's so much to do for such a small town, and the locals will help point you in the direction of the TNT igloos where many of the infamous Mothman sightings occurred. That place is delightfully creepy even in broad daylight!
I think Marengo Cave is a fantastic alternative to Mammoth Cave (which I also cover in my book). Ask anyone in Cincinnati if they've been on a cave tour and most will tell you they've been to Mammoth Cave. However, Marengo Cave is just as impressive and is much closer. For the truly adventurous, there are exploration tours where you experience a natural cave lit only by the lights you carry!
Cincy Chic: What great spots aren't as well-known as places like Gatlinburg or French Lick?
Reed: One of my favorite destinations is Cedar Bog — near Urbana, Ohio. It is an unusual landscape full of rare plant species and abundant animal life. I've only seen a handful of people there in the dozens of times I've visited, so it's very calm and serene.
I also recommend Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge a lot. My husband and I happened upon it on the way back from Hoosier National Forest and fell in love instantly. It's an important stop on migratory bird routes, and years ago the park staff introduced river otters, so there's always the chance you'll have an exciting wildlife sighting.
Cincy Chic: When you aren't traveling away from the city, what do you like to do for fun?
Reed: My husband and I love to geocache. For those not familiar with it, you use a handheld GPS to find caches, or small containers, which can hold anything from trinkets to money.…
I also enjoy visiting old cemeteries, which I blog about. (I think the symbols are interesting on old gravestones.) And I'm helplessly attached to my Kindle. I've had it since November and have read every single night since! And because my mind is always going a million miles per hour, I sometimes like to pull out my scrapbooking materials and get lost for a few hours.
Cincy Chic: What do you love most about Cincinnati?
Reed: I love that it's a great home base. Some people might get the wrong idea that I'm trying to push people out of the city with this book, when it's quite the opposite. There are a million and one things to do here, but sometimes you just need a change of scenery. Too many people see Cincinnati as this landlocked, vanilla place but we're in such a great position to enjoy our history and see how it fits in with places within a few hours' driving time.

In the little town that's home-away-from-home to millions of readers, life hums along as usual. Dooley looks toward his career as a vet; Joe Ivey and Fancy Skinner fight a haircut price war that takes no prisoners; and Percy steps out on a limb with a risky new menu item at the Main Street Grill.
Though Father Tim dislikes change, he dislikes retirement even more. As he and Cynthia gear up for a year-long ministry across the state line, a series of events sends shock waves through his faith, and the whole town of Mitford.
In her seventh novel in the best-selling Mitford Years series, Jan Karon delivers surprises of every kind, including the return of the man in the attic and an ending that no one in Mitford will ever forget.
©2002 Jan Karon; (P)2002 Penguin Audiobooks
"Homespun dialogue, fresh and lively descriptions, laugh-out-loud moments and poignant scenes mark the heartfelt book." (Publishers Weekly)
Mary in Palos Verdes 15 year listener of audio books because I don't have time to sit down and read and many many times the narrator enhances the story.
"Top Of The List"
I love the Mitford series by Jan Karon, it's a sweet Christian series that makes you feel good(Although the many characters are Christians, they are not portrayed as perfect--they have all of our common foibles which are funny and very recognizable). The narrator, John McDonough does an absolutely perfect job. I have enjoyed all of the books in the series. I have read about half of them and listened to half. This is one of those books that is preferred as an audible book. This is my first review and I couldn't reccommend a series more highly. I can't wait until Audible has them all! it's the kind of book (series) you can listen to and enjoy over and over.
No plot spoilers please!
"Another beauty from Jan Karon"
What a charming pleasure to listen to. I feel sorry to have such a positive and quirky series drawing to a close. Well written, engaging and beautifully read.
"The Narrator"
John McDonough is wonderful in his narration of this series! Thank you, John. I'm rating the narration here a 5.
"Don't Leave Home Without it."
Another of the great Jan Karon's At Home in Mitford series. Characters come to life in each book and you can not wait to hear what happens in the next installment. We travel with them in the car. We never get inpatient or annoyed over construction or other hold up on the road as we are happily enjoying life in Mitford. This is a series the whole family can enjoy and wrap their conversations around. No sex, violence or bad language. Warning for very small children is it about life and sometimes bad things happen to good people, but the author always teaches us a valuable lesson we can carry to our lives.
C. Cole
"A Must read Series"
I love all of Jan Karon's books in this series. I have read all of then at least 3 times and listened to them on audio once or twice. Heaven will be just like Mitford- with out the pain of course. Perfection
I have a half hour commute to work each way. I love listening to audiobooks on the drive. It makes me look forward to the commute!
"Down in Mitford"
I love Jan Karon's books, especially the Mitford series. The characters have become like old friends. The sense of wit and charm are welcomed and sometimes surprising. This particular novel in the series is a little more "down" that I have come to expect. More worries, sadness, and troubles. I am coming near the end of the series and am going to have to choose a time when I'm not driving to listen to "A Light from Heaven" as I'm sure it will bring tears
"Father Tim's retirement problems."
The is a story of best laid plans that go haywire. So many unexpected things happen you won't want to put it down.
Father Tim is always my favorite character. The way his brain works overtime is so comforting. I love the Scripture he quotes.
I have listened to Mr. McDonough narrate many books. He always puts on a fine performance and I enjoy listening to him
Luellen. I love to listen to her stories about dear Miss Sadie.
This is a wonderful setiers. How I would love a follow up to tie all loose ends together.
C's Kindle
"Wonderful Clean well narrated listen"
I love to read when time allows but having it as audio allows me to enjoy while driving long trips
Father Tim. Main character who I identify frequently with
All them
Lots of laughs. And some strong emotion
Clean enough to be listened to on the presence of children
"Wonderful as always"
Can't get enough of Fr Tim and Mitford. I listen to and from work each day and get to take a mini vacation to a wonderful place with wonderful characters!
"The Mountain Top"
The folks in Mitford have become like family to me. These books take me to a place that is so warm and comforting. I am so sorry the series has ended. I know I will listen to these books again and again. What a refreshing change from murder and sex, and etc................

A quest for auction-worthy props leads Joe Maddalena and Jon Mankuta to Oklahoma City, where they lay it all on the line to secure two X-Men treasures: Wolverine's claws and dog tag. Both were worn and used by Hugh Jackman in X2: X-Men United. But the challenge on the road isn't just finding the items, it's convincing their owners to let them go. Meanwhile, a passionate collector named Ed Zine brings his limited edition replica C3PO statue for Joe and Brian to consign. But when it comes time to make the final decision, he must weigh his love for Star Wars against his need for money to help support his family.

(CNN) -- Video producer's note: Lasers are now being used to help people with disabilities communicate. CNN got a firsthand look at how this assistive technology works when Sandy Hanebrink, executive director of Touch the Future, gave us a demonstration of the Lucy 4 keyboard at the Abilities Expo in Atlanta.
In the above video you'll see how the technology has given a voice to people that would otherwise have no means of communicating on computers and smartphones.
In what other ways do you think lasers can be used to help people with disabilities?

"Imagine the most horrific things that happen in this city that no one really hears about or sees. Homicides, rapes, car accidents, violent assaults, this is the kind of stuff we deal with on a daily basis." This statement made by a Peel region (near Toronto, Canada) police officer who preferred to remain anonymous describes the myriad disturbing situations encountered on the job.
"…some of these cases involve children and teenagers. I've heard others claim that after long enough they just become desensitized to it all, but it's never easy and you never forget that these things happened."
Police work means being confronted with situations that cause considerable emotional distress. Yet we don't hear a lot about police officers suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder. More commonly, media attention is devoted to military employees dealing with the same mental illness issues.

A survey and regulatory review of 2013February 24, 2014
It's important to do a review that considers your region and state. Identify how complaints and care deficiencies were handled last year.
Sprinkler system citations now in effectOctober 01, 2013
Nursing homes without a full sprinkler system installed and functioning are now subject to deficiency citations, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
Nursing homes without full sprinkler system will receive deficiency tagAugust 20, 2013
Nursing homes without an installed, fully functioning sprinkler system will be cited for a deficiency starting this month, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. In a memorandum released on Aug. 16, CMS clarified the sprinkler requirement that went into effect on Aug. 13. All nursing homes must be fully equipped with sprinklers in order to participate in Medicare or Medicaid, the requirement mandates.
Nursing homes should think twice before submitting a plan of correction, court ruling suggestsApril 26, 2013
Nursing homes that dispute a deficiency citation without Immediate Jeopardy and want it stricken from public record should consider withholding a plan of correction (POC), according to a recent federal court ruling.
Keeping it realMay 09, 2011
Let me introduce myself. My name is Jackie and I am (proudly) a long-term care nurse. The editors at McKnight's are brave enough to let me start a blog. It might at times be slightly irreverent, thought provoking and challenging, and it might cause you to become introspective. Throughout, I promise you one thing: I'll keep it real.
GAO: States' underreporting of nursing home deficiencies improving slightlyMay 27, 2010
A new governmental report released Wednesday shows that federal nursing home surveyors continue to identify more deficiencies in care than state surveyors, but the discrepancy is shrinking.
GAO: Problems with survey methodology, guidance factor into understatement of deficiencies at nursing homesJanuary 04, 2010
General weaknesses in the nursing home survey process contribute to the understatement of deficiencies at nursing homes, a newly released report from the Government Accountability Office found.

The Chancellor of The Exchequer, Alistair Darling, has announced a one-off payment of £60 for recipients of benefits including Carer's Allowance, Disability Living Allowance, Attendance Allowance and State Pension.
The bonus is being paid on top of the 2008 £10 Christmas Bonus payment and will be transferred between January and March.
The extra money takes the total Christmas Bonus payment to £70 for Christmas 2008.
Mr Darling has made the announcement as part of the Pre-Budget Report, the government's annual economic forecast.
The sum will be paid automatically, carers do not need to apply for the additional amount.
The qualifying week for the Christmas bonus will be the week commencing 22nd December and the payment will not be treated as an overpayment.
If a carer becomes newly entitled to one of the qualifying benefits after the first week of December and are in receipt during the week of 22 December, they will get the full £70.
The qualifying benefits are:
- State Pension
- Non contributory state pension (Over 80s pension)
- Pension Credit; Attendance Allowance
- Disability Living Allowance
- Carer's Allowance; Incapacity Benefit at the long term rate (currently £84.50)

Workers on a boat sail past the Costa Concordia ship after it was lifted upright, on the Tuscan Island of Giglio, Italy, Tuesday, Sept. 17, 2013.
