CATCo performance, 20% in a year…
Roughly a year ago, I wrote about options for investing within the re-insurance sector. Now seems as good a time as any to revisit the performance of CATCo and DCG Iris. CATCO I wrote about here: http://the-global-investor.com/catco-global-reinsurance-opportunities/ DCG Iris here: http://the-global-investor.com/dcg-iris/ At the time I believed DCG Iris would struggle to produce any capital growth, but CATCo looked interesting.

About Us
Contact Us
Social Events
The FHAPA annual meeting (in January, and which is a family-based event) with a pot-
luck dinner, a summer ice cream social (typically, July, with an all-member meeting),
and a barbecue (typically September) are the principal fellowship activities for
members. Member Rob Gordon provides the barbecue services for the range of beef, chicken, and pork meats featured at the annual meeting and fall barbecue.
Charitable Activities
FHAPA is also recognized in the community for its charitable activities and monetary contributions. A pink Cancer Awareness tractor (an Allis Chalmers model C affectionately known as the pink tractor) is a recognized and popular trademark of the FHAPA; it brings attention to a serious health problem and has been the basis for a fundraiser to assist other organizations. An example is a $1000 contribution to the Newman Regional Health Center for a state-of-the-art breast cancer diagnostic and treatment unit. Other contributions have been to the June Bug fund to assist families with cancer patient-related needs, to area libraries for ag-related childrens books, or to FHAPA-member county historical societies to supplement their museum budgets. A pedal tractor raffle in conjunction with the Lyon County Fair also helps to establish a presence in the community. Proceeds from the raffle, a contribution box with the pink tractor, and the hook fees at tractor pulls enable these charitable contributions.
Flint Hills Antique Power Assoc. EDGE & TA Branch #107
The Flint Hills Antique Power Association (FHAPA) , based in Emporia, Kansas, and
with membership in Lyon and surrounding counties, evolved from the participation of
several Kansas Farmers Union (KFU) members with activities developed for the 1997 Lyon County Fair.
Flint Hills Antique Power Association
"To promote the collection, restoration, preservation, and exhibition of antique farm tractors, engines, power-driven machinery and other farm equipment"

Veterans Day
Suggestions for Observing Veterans' Day (November 11) in Worship
In most years and most times, Veterans' Day passes in our churches with little or no mention. Historically and traditionally, Veterans' Day has been more a civic than a sacred observance. As with New Years Day, Mother's Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and others, Veterans' Day is not a part of the liturgical calendar — although sometimes local congregations will observe these days in some manner in Sunday congregational worship.Suggestions for Observing Veterans' Day (November 11) in Worship »

As companies grow and the distance between family managers and nonfamily employees widens, more formal processes are needed to solidify the listening process, such as management committees and councils. If you provide a safe place for nonfamily managers to address issues of concern within the company, by extension, you'll give all non-family employees a voice.
Another way to get useful feedback from nonfamily members is to institute a 360-degree performance review. This relies on all the people working with someone to assess how the person is doing in his or her job.
"The key to the success of this evaluation," says Karofsky, "is that it be simple, well explained, and begin at the top of the organization. The family member at the helm has to be able to ask him or herself three questions: 'What am I doing right?' 'What do I need to improve?' and 'What am I going to do about it?' Those questions then have to be asked of peers, siblings and other family members, and then asked once again of direct reports, who are all assured of anonymity."
Karofsky says the family business head has to amass the information gathered from others and see how it matches his or her own perception of performance and the action plan he or she has developed. "If a CEO models this type of evaluation and it has no repercussions for people doing the assessment, others will go along with it too," he says.
Still, under some circumstances, a culture of openness has to be coupled with the ability to actively listen. Otherwise, it's of little value. For example, if you're a family manager and an employee says to you, "You're making it hard on me if your nephew takes the week of Christmas and New Year's off," you have to find out what he means. Is he complaining of unequal practices because he's been refused the time off, but the nephew hasn't been? Or is he saying that he's going to have too much work during that period and he'd like some additional help? You need to ask the person to elaborate on the comment and then check out your interpretation with him before taking any action.
Another example of misusing open communication is if, after encouraging input, you pay no attention to it, never act on suggestions, or allow employees' input to negatively affect their standing in the company. Then you're sabotaging your own efforts. "The business has to be run rationally," Kaplan says. "There can't be a gap between what you say you want and what you really want. People figure that out immediately."
If you really want nonfamily employees to open up and communicate with you, but you can't figure out how to do this, Karofsky suggests calling in a third party. That person needs to be a skilled, impartial interviewer who can speak to nonfamily employees to find out why they're not opening up, and someone who can help you set up structures to facilitate communication between family managers and other non-family employees.

|The buck stops with me, says apologetic Justin Luchford
|Monday, 20 February 2012
WHITSTABLE TOWN manager Justin Luchford has issued an apology to supporters after his side were thrashed 5-0 at home by promotion chasing Whitehawk on Saturday.
The Oystermen are presently sitting second-from-bottom in the revised Ryman League Division One South table with 21 points from 28 games, thanks to Croydon Athletic's demise and a miserable run of just one win in their last seven league outings.
However, they are nine points clear of basement side Whyteleafe and have lost their last two league games and have now gone 228 minutes since scoring their last goal.
Former Faversham Town and Horsham boss Luchford, meanwhile, has issued the following statement to the club's official website www.whitstabletownfc.co.uk to apologise to fed-up supporters'.
He said: "I would just like to take this opportunity to apologise to the fans for Saturday's performance.
"It wasn't good enough and not what you deserve to be watching.
"The buck stops with me. I'm the manager and I take full responsibility.
"We will work hard this week to ensure this doesn't happen again.
"We have good players at this football club and I am convinced we will get this right.
"Once again I apologise and I hope you continue to support this club in the same way you have for many years.
"You deserve more and I will work around the clock to give you something to cheer about."

yea i'm going to give up sweets and puds for lent, not religious either, but think thats my major down fall the now, especially if i'm stressed! plus with booster can't afford to go waisting checks each day on treats. Will use lent to try and kick the habbit then have a treat once a week or something like that. was thinking I could have fruit salad and yoghurt and honey, does that count as a pud, or cos its low fat and stuff am I alowed to have that?thougth please, cos that would be satisfying enough to get me through. but if it counts as a proper pud then i'll just buy a bowl of fruit and munch on that. will work quite well really, don't eat enough fruit at the min!.
Posted 20 February 2012 - 04:03 PM
Hey JenniIf you use the fruit from your EDB allowance (use berries cos you can have loads as one serving! I think it is 225 grams of blueberries is one EDB serving!) and use fat free Greek yoghurt or virtually fat free any other yoghurt (weight watchers/muller light etc) then you wouldn't need to count it - a tablespoon of honey is 2.5 checks.Here is my typical Booster Day (during the week anyway!):BreakfastFat Free Greek Yoghurt - FreeBlueberries from EDBTbsp honey = 2.5 checksMorning Snack60g pot of reduced fat hummus - freeCarrot batons to dip in it - freeLunchChicken breast - free No check salad - EDBLow fat salad cream - 1.5 checksMid afternoon snackApple - EDBDinnervarious but usually about 6-8 checksEvening SnackFun size choccie bar or a couple of belvita biscuits - 4 checksTotal is usually about 15/16 checks per day so i'm still saving someThe way to cut down on the checks is to reduce bread/pasta/rice/potatoes with meals - i try to only have one serving per day and fill up on protein and veggies for other meals.Hope this helps!
Posted 20 February 2012 - 04:16 PM
Cool, could it count as a pud in terms of lent tho, cos i'm giving up puddings and sweet things for that? or would it be ok? especially if i didn't have the honey on it?You get so much for your checks in your menu!!! I'm not as good at that, I totally ignore my EDBs, I just forget that I have them, cos I never have anything that counts in the house. I am planning out my meals just now tho and it looks like I am managing to get more for my checks, I should really get into the habbit of planning again. you just reminded me to put yoghurts on the shopping list! haha! Thanks for that!
Posted 21 February 2012 - 01:11 PM
Jenni - I don't think it will count as a pudding! Its too healthy........Always on my shopping list for Booster:Fruit (lots)Green Veggies (lots)Veggies for making stir fries (peppers etc)Cooked ChickenEggsHamChicken breastsLow fat hummusFat free greek yoghurtWeight watchers yoghurtBacon medallionsLow fat sausagesI always write out a plan - write down each day of the week and what to have for Bkfst, lunch and dinner on each day and I stick it on the fridge!! To keep the costs and food waste down I tend to have the same breakfast every weekday and pick 3 different lunches and alternate them through the week. Sometimes left over dinner makes next days lunch. I am struggling with exercise this week as I've hurt my back at the weekend - going to try a swim tonight after work tho and see how it goes.
Posted 21 February 2012 - 05:27 PM
i have kind of fell away from my faith, too much to go into just now but i was thinking of doing something for lent as its been so long since i hvae done anything. not sure yet, maybe sweets and chocolate katie xx

Road users putting on make-up, changing CDs and arguing with their passengers have all contributed to traffic accidents, according to recent insurance claims...
A survey by a price comparison website found one driver was involved in an accident after claiming they saw an unnamed celebrity walking along the street. The 'celebrity' turned out to be a normal member of the public.
Paul Gilbert, customer services director of InsureAnts.co.uk said some road users' shocking ignorance of the Highway Code and lack of basic driving skills was forcing up insurance premiums for other drivers.
"We never cease to be amazed by some claims," he said. "It's almost as if some people pass their driving test and immediately forget the basic rules of the road."
Among the claims revealed by the survey were:
• I was changing a CD and I didn't notice the bend in the road. I ended up sideways in a field, and walked out through the hole where the windscreen was, listening to Led Zep.
• I thought I saw somebody famous walking down the pavement, and took my eye off the road, causing the crash. Mr Not A Celebrity saw the accident and kindly agreed to be a witness.
• The other driver said he was too busy looking at the map to notice that he had gone the wrong way on a one-way street.
• I was trying to swat a fly with the ice scraper and didn't see the other car.
• The other driver said they had just driven off the ferry after a week in France, and forgot to drive on the left.
• I saw somebody getting undressed in their front window, and crashed through their wall.
• We were driving up to the traffic lights just as they turned red, and pressed the accelerator instead of the brake pedal.
• I saw a police car, panicked, and drove on the pavement by mistake.
• I was driving along a country road and the pollen from a nearby field made me sneeze and I ended up in a ditch.
• The other driver was too busy putting on their make-up to see me coming the other way.
• I was practising what I'd do in the event of a car crash, and crashed.

text: I just want to compliment most of the fans posting here. Yes, there is a little inane smack talk, but for the most part, the posts are thoughtful, interesting, and reasonable. Of course you all want the Patriots to win, but most of you seem to be a fan of the game overall. I haven't really seen this on too many other fan forums--perhaps only on the Steeler fans' forum. Most forums are full of smack, smack, smack with very little meat. Personally, I have rediscovered my joy in football after spending a year in Iraq. The games became a weekly ritual, all of us, from all different fan bases, gathering around a television at night to watch whatever game was being beamed to us. And while a Chargers fan, that experience has taught me to appreciate all teams. It would be pretty dull without good competition from other teams, after all. I am looking forward to a good game tomorrow. The Patriots are a classy team, and as I have posted on the Chargers forum, the Pats' fans are classy as well. Here's to a great game!

Brain Change with David Perlmutter, MD

BrainChange reveals the devastating truth about the effects of wheat, sugar, and carbohydrates on the human brain, with a 30-day plan to achieve optimum health. Renowned neurologist David Perlmutter, MD, blows the lid off a topic that's been buried in medical literature for far too long: carbs are destroying your brain. And not just unhealthy carbs, but even healthy ones like whole grains can cause dementia, ADHD, anxiety, chronic headaches, depression, and much more.
His New York Times #1 best-selling book, Grain Brain, is the first book of its kind to explore the insidious role our highly touted low-fat, high-carb diets play in a host of neurological conditions.
The vast majority of us don't realize that our seemingly "healthy" daily habits are silently aggravating our nervous systems and setting us up for serious brain ailments. BrainChange shows that the fate of your brain is not in your genes. It's in the food you eat.
Dr Perlmutter, a leading international authority on nutritional medicine, has a disturbing yet empowering message: our brains are highly sensitive to certain proteins and sugars that are ubiquitous today—in multi-grain breads, whole fruits, nutritional supplements, and even brand name pharmaceuticals. In BrainChange, he shows us how to prevent, treat, and reverse a wide array of brain-related disorders by eliminating specific foods from our diets and making smarter lifestyle choices.
Dr. Perlmutter is the only doctor in the country who is both a board-certified neurologist and a Fellow of the American College of Nutrition, making him uniquely suited to write this book and make this public television program. An in-demand expert for nationally syndicated radio and television programs, he has appeared on 20/20, CNN, Dr. Oz, Fox News, Good Morning America, The Today Show, and Oprah, among many outlets. Dr. Perlmutter also runs his own private practice, The Perlmutter Health Center, in Naples, Florida.

2013 NBA Draft: Celtics set to work out 12 draft prospects, including 6 point guards
The Boston Celtics plan to work out 12 NBA draft prospects, including 6 point guards, between Friday and Saturday, as first reported by Baxter Holmes of the Boston Globe.
According to Holmes, the list of players includes Steven Adams (Pittsburg), Colton Iverson (Colorado State), Jeff Withey (Kansas), Greg Echenique (Creighton), Phil Pressey (Missouri), Myck Kabongo (Texas), Peyton Siva (Louisville), Pierre Jackson (Baylor), and Shane Larkin (Miami).
Danny Ainge and the Boston Celtics own the 16th pick in the 2013 NBA Draft and are without a second round selection, but something tells me Maine Red Claws team president Bill Ryan Jr. will be in attendance.
Though Adams, Withey, Larkin, and even Jackson (climbing up draft boards, according to Chad Ford) are potential first-round draft picks, all but Larkin seem destined for the D-League for the foreseeable future.
It seems possible that Withey could carve out a role for himself as a defensive-minded center, but the other big guys appear to be project players (Adams and Iverson), or a poor man's Ronny Turiaf (Echenrique).
Pressey and Siva are both undersized, turnover-prone point guards who, at best, are streaky shooters. There's a name for those types of players: D-Leaguers. Kabongo is a correct-sized, turnover prone point guard who can't shoot.
Larkin is an intriguing prospect, a dynamic athlete who ran the fasted 3/4 court sprint and jumped the highest at the NBA combine and is a master of the pick-and-roll game so prevalent in the NBA. Still, the Celtics, lest we forget, have one of the best point guard in the league, on one of the best contracts, who hates to come out of games. I don't see Ainge drafting a back up point guard, unless Boston somehow adds a second-round pick. It'd be a waste of the 16th pick, when the Celtics could use a big body to shore up their frontcourt.
2 Responses to "2013 NBA Draft: Celtics set to work out 12 draft prospects, including 6 point guards"
i would just like too say that myck kabongo is a good-decent shooter just a had a very very bad showing and the combine.

Check out the full lineup for this year's iHeartRadio Music Festival
Lil Za is speaking out about his drug arrest during a police raid on pal Justin Bieber's house earlier this week.
On Thursday, the rapper took to Twitter to defend himself against his characterization in the press, while also raising the issue of face.
He tweeted:
Honestly , the media is making me someone I'm not . But only those in my shoes can relate. ... These ppl get paid to make you look bad.— Gunzo (@LilZa) January 16, 2014
Za continued:
Some stuff I've done has been wrong yes. but look at the position I'm in and the color of my skin. Cocaine? Really?— Gunzo (@LilZa) January 16, 2014
"All this time I was home in tx nobody gave a f*ck about what Za is doing… soon as he gets to La he's all over the news," added the rapper.
He was initially busted for felony drug possession on Tuesday for a substance that's been reported as both cocaine and ecstasy.
Shortly before he was to be released, Za allegedly smashed a jail phone, leading to a separate arrest for vandalism.

I have been looking and looking and can't find an actual write up or much more than a few bland HBD discussions on Teri Fahrendorf's 1992 special Zymurgy article about closed system pressurized fermentation. I read other peoples articles including some on the initial credited creator Morton Coutts. If someone reads Zymurgy and has that issue, could they break it down for me. I assume she is reiterating what Coutts has done, but since I don't know for sure I will always wonder. I have been using this/similar technique a couple of beers now and love it, but would like to know if there is some more to this technique I might be missing. Many thanks if you can help me out. My last resort is spending $20+ on an old copy somewhere to read what I probably already know .
None have the sot-after Zymurgy issue, oh well I knew it was a long shot just figured this forum was large enough someone might have it or have read it. I will be doing my own write-up soon on my closed system pressurized fermentation.
I tried searching on her website, but didn't come across it. You might try contact her through there and see if she has any suggestions.
Thanks for the link Rhoobarb, I just had the "brilliant" idea to actually check my local library. They may can get it if I have difficulty with reading about/talking to Mrs. Fahrendorf.
Ok, I finally did my own write up on my way of doing what I think she talked about in her article. Here, lol. Hope everyone enjoys the read.
Better late than never...Closed System Pressurized Fermentation by Teri Fahrendorf
Yep, I guess I never got back to this thread to say I got it. Lol, probably because I was so busy writing the huge thread that was started by reading her article... along with others. Might click the link in my signature or click the here in my last post if you want to read it. It's mammoth now, so be forewarned.

Professional wrestling career[edit]
Norman Smiley trained under Rusty Brooks and Boris and Dean Malenko before making his debut in 1985 on the Floridian independent circuit, originally known as Black Magic, then as the hated Lord Henry Norman. Smiley wrestled in the Japanese shootstyle group UWF International (UWFi) in 1988 and 1989. In 1990 Smiley competed at the National Wrestling Alliance/World Championship Wrestling Starrcade 1990 event teaming with Chris Adams against the team of Konnan and Rey Misterio, Sr. In 1992, he began wrestling for CMLL in Mexico as Black Magic, winning the CMLL World Heavyweight Championship and holding it until losing to Silver King in 1994. In 1995 and 1996, he briefly competed in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania based Extreme Championship Wrestling promotion.
World Championship Wrestling (1997-2001)[edit]
Smiley joined World Championship Wrestling in 1997, wrestling primarily on WCW Saturday Night. After being removed from television, he returned several months later with a new gimmick. His new character saw him add the "Big Wiggle" to his repertoire of moves; prior to this, his signature taunt was a mimed bow-and-arrow motion, informally dubbed "The Sacajaweah". After knocking an opponent down, Smiley would perform a dance that he called the "Big Wiggle". He later added the "Smiley Spank", which saw him double an opponent over, straddle him, and perform a slapping motion with his hands.
During his tenure in WCW, Smiley often teamed with Chris Adams. The duo had previously teamed together as the British participants in the 1990 NWA Pat O'Connor tag team tournament, and were close friends.
A heel turn began in a backstage interview on an episode of WCW Saturday Night when he told fans that he was European and that, as such, his name should be pronounced phonetically as "Nor-MAHN Smi-LAY." He would insult the fans who mispronounced his name at establishments such as Waffle House and Piggly Wiggly. He then feuded with Chavo Guerrero, Jr., on one occasion destroying Guerrero's hobby horse mascot, Pepè, by feeding it into a wood chipper on the January 11, 1999 episode of WCW Monday Nitro. Despite Smiley's attempts to be a heel, fans seemed to enjoy his "big wiggle" and comedy antics, effectively turning him face.
In 1999, Smiley entered the hardcore division. Smiley's character was nicknamed "Screamin' " Norman Smiley due to his fear of being hit by weapons. Smiley would also come to the ring wearing the jersey of a local professional sports team, along with padding and a football helmet to cushion blows. This comedic gimmick caused Smiley's popularity to soar, and he eventually became the first WCW Hardcore Champion by defeating Brian Knobs in a tournament final. During his two reigns, Smiley was a reluctant champion, even attempting to purposely lose matches (although he invariably retained the title inadvertently, much to his chagrin). Smiley is the twice-longest WCW Hardcore Championship titleholder, at 51 and 42 days, respectively.[3]
Smiley feuded with Brian Knobs, Meng and Terry Funk during his tenures as WCW Hardcore Champion, recruiting Chris Jericho's former associate Ralphus to be his manager. With the assistance of Ralphus, he stole a backyard wrestling championship from a group of children during a vignette.
Smiley remained in WCW until the company was sold to the World Wrestling Federation in March 2001. He was not hired by the WWF following the sale.
Total Nonstop Action Wrestling and the independent circuit[edit]
Smiley wrestled for the short-lived X Wrestling Federation and the World Wrestling All-Stars before returning to the Florida independent circuit. He wrestled briefly for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling in 2002 and then had several tryout matches with WWE in 2003 and 2004. In February 2006, he was backstage during the TNA pay-per-view Against All Odds 2006, and he wrestled in an eight-man opening match on an episode of TNA Impact! shortly thereafter, doing the Big Wiggle on Jeff Jarrett. At TNA Destination X 2006 on March 12, 2006, Smiley and Shark Boy lost to David Young and Elix Skipper. Smiley and Shark Boy upset Homicide and Machete of the LAX on the March 18 edition of Impact! Smiley was inactive for several weeks following an attack at the hands of Scott Steiner, but returned on the June 29, 2006 episode of Impact!, losing to Monty Brown. On the February 16, 2007 edition of Impact! Smiley made his return, teaming with Shark Boy in a loss to LAX.
Return to AAA[edit]
Smiley returned to Mexico's Asistencia Asesoría y Administración as a member of La Legión Extranjera (Foreign Legion) as a sidekick of El Mesías. In an online interview, Smiley indicated that he one day intended to return to TNA wrestling to become the "greatest champion" in the company's brief history.
World Wrestling Entertainment / WWE (2007-present)[edit]
Smiley wrestled in a WWE dark match prior to the November 19, 2007 episode of Raw, losing to Vladimir Kozlov.[4]
Norman Smiley has now relocated to Tampa to work as a trainer for WWE's development territory, Florida Championship Wrestling. In early 2010, he started making on-camera appearances as the lieutenant general manager of FCW but since August 2010, he's been known on FCW TV as the liaison for the FCW president, Steve Keirn.
Since then Smiley has continued to train for the WWE developmental territories, currently working with the NXT superstars.
Personal life[edit]
Norman Smiley is close personal friends with fellow professional wrestler and former WCW alumni Vampiro. He is the godfather of Vampiro's daughter Dasha.

The science and technical Oscars are apparently a lot less formal than the main Academy Awards. At Saturday's banquet for the behind-the-scenes Oscar winners, host and presenter Kate Hudson kicked off her heels partway through and presented half the awards barefoot. She also remarked on the difficulty she was having keeping her midriff-baring, floor-length black gown from falling off. ''This is horrible,'' she said, according to Reuters, as she fiddled frequently with her buttons. ''If you get bored, I just might pop open!''
If the ''How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days'' star was unlikely to win the Best Supported Actress award, she still managed to entertain the mostly male group of techies in the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel's banquet hall, who were honored for various technical innovations in moviemaking. (Hudson will pay homage to Saturday's winners when she presents a clip reel of highlights from the banquet during the Academy Awards ceremony on March 23.) Oscar statuettes went to the makers of helium balloon-mounted lights for film sets, a portable sound recorder that captures information on a hard disk drive, and CGI software that creates digital characters. Hudson joked that such software could put live-action stars like her out of business, but for the most part, she recognized that these usually unglamorous folks were the ones who make her job possible. ''Thank you for everything you do that continues to advance what I do,'' she said.
