I read an article from the Environmental Transport Agency (ETA) a few weeks back suggesting that "green" cars are too expensive. The example they used was of a VW Polo 1.4 TDI BlueMotion, a diesel car fitted with advanced filters. The technology benefits the driver with increased fuel efficiency and a lower CO2 output (just 99g/km). However, the report calculates that for Polo owners to re-coup the cost of paying for this version over a standard Polo, they'd have to drive 78,00 Read More >>
Green driving blog posts
If I was a learner driver right now I think I would've balked at the end idea of having to endure an additional assessment on my driving test. But if I knew that this assessment could help me save 15% on my fuel costs then I might be a little more enthusiastic. Well according to The ETA, that's how much fuel newly qualified driver's stand to save with the Driving Standards Agency introducing a new green assessment to the UK driving test. Thankfully for prospective drivers, the assessment w Read More >>
On the BBC website this week, I saw a story about how, in a climate of rising taxes and high fuel prices, fleet managers and employers are embracing lower emission cars to save costs. Specifically, they are looking for cars that emit less than 160 grammes per kilometre of CO2. Car manufacturers are understandably under pressure to reduce the carbon missions produced by their cars. By having a fleet which is generally less than 7 months old we are seeing the benefit of this as, with every cycle Read More >>
Driven by some really passionate people, Avis has been working hard to reduce it's impact on the environment for many years now. So we were all disappointed when we did not come out on top in the car rental category in the "Green Travel: Winners and Losers" review in the Telegraph. However, our disappointment was soon gone when we learned that the Telegraph had made a typo. So with the mistake now rectified we are proud they appointed us the joint most green car hire company!

I seem to have some budding writers in my team as, in addition to myself and Rob writing on the blog, I now have Simon Wickson who has written a couple of articles to inform and advise customers with business car hire requirements. The first article he wrote entitled "Green Policy – Could your company generate more sales by having a green policy?" is an interesting one. As the title suggests, Simon's argument for green policy is not so much focused on the "good deed Read More >>
While it has been on the radar for many years now, the Stern Review that was published last year, escalated the issue of climate change high up the political agenda. There will always be sceptics out there but reducing or mitigating the effect our operations have on the environment has always been a priority for Avis ever since we started working with The CarbonNeutral Company 7 years ago. For many customers, reducing the size of their own 'carbon footprint' is important to them too Read More >>
Apologies for the delay in responding to your blog comments this week. I've only been logging on intermittently as I've just got back from a short break in Jersey. We flew from Southampton with Flybe, on a short 25 minute flight, yay! I rented a car from the Avis Licensee in Jersey operated by Falles Car Hire and I have to say they gave me great service. My flight was delayed due to the extra security following the recent events at Glasgow Airport and so I wasn't at the hotel Read More >>
For those of you who are interested in driving a hybrid, I am delighted to announce that we now have the Toyota Prius available at selected London locations in the UK. The Prius, which works on a mixture of petrol engine and electric motor, is available to book at www.avisprestige.com and has the added advantage of being exempt from the congestion charge! If you would like to know more about some of the new greener cars we have available across Europe then you might be interested to read Rob Read More >>
According to Autocar BMW will not launch a hybrid vehicle unless "it is more economical in the real world than a diesel car". This follows frustration in the automobile industry that hybrids cars are becoming synonymous with environmentally friendly driving when diesels have often proved to have a better fuel economy. So the search for a cleaner, more environmentally friendly motoring future continues. But perhaps the future now lies with hydrogen fuel cells. Having read the excellen Read More >>
I learnt my lesson about not wasting fuel many years ago. I was driving through Yosemite National Park in California and had my air-conditioning turned right up. I didn't realise it made the car use more fuel, and nearly ran out of petrol. I almost ended up stranded at the top of a mountain in a thunderstorm! Lights, windscreen wipers, audio systems, air-conditioning and heating all increase your fuel consumption – and CO2 emissions. Most are essential in certain conditions, but there are ot Read More >>

Unsurprisingly, This is the most pro bowl players the Carolina Panthers have had in many seasons.
Players who I feel were snubbed...
Thomas Davis
Star Lotulelei

:: beforeT. Davis for sure. Davis is playing lights out this year...
PS...I got his jeresy for christmas !!
look at all the OLB's chosen... all 3-4 guys :/
poor TD... hes still a pro bowler in my book
Unfortunately Star's production will probably never translate to the stat sheet. Too many people see all DT's as 3 tech's and look at sacks. Unless he develops as a pass rusher I think he'll remain criminally underrated.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using CarolinaHuddle mobile app
I know TD wanted the recognition, and it was nice to see DeAngelo on FB give him the shoutout that he was snubbed.
When the Panthers are playing in MetLife Stadium on February second, we'll all laugh at the ProBowl nonsense anyway.
Players who I feel were snubbed...
Thomas Davis
Star Lotulelei
Brad Nortman
Not Gano?
Hate that Davis got snubbed and I also think that we have the best punter in the NFL!!
But hopefully none of these guys will be in Hawaii as they will be preparing for the Super Bowl!
Not Gano?
Matt Prater set an nfl record for longest field goal this season and Justin Tucker has the same number of misses with 11 more attempts. I don't think he got snubbed.
They still deserve the honor and so does TD.
T.D. got snubbed......Nortman had a great year, I hope he stays around for awhile.
As good as this team has been playing, it's only fair that some of the players get recognized by both the fans and peers. Congrats to them all.
Good job guys. wish TD was there.
Here is the Pro Bowl Roster
Special Teams:
Alot of really good OLB's this year, it's okay he didn't make it. Pro bowl isn't important anyways and if it was strictly AFC vs NFC, he probably would have made it. The guys who made it over him were just as deserving, so calm down.
It doesn't matter anyways, because he's OUR player which is far better than anything else. Our benefit and his!
Kansas City and San Fran led the league with 8. I feel happy with 5. TD deserved it but that's life. I didn't feel strongly about Star making it but when I look at the guys that went ahead of him I think to myself "he's better than those guys".
The one award I would love more than anything for TD is Walter Payton Man of The Year.
If he stayed at 100% in field goal percentage we may have run into trouble since he is one of our free agents next year.
TD and Star should have made it .... only 2 players off the #1 scoring defense and #2 rushing defense... thats just wrong

The First Presidential Debate
Did you know?
The Commission on Presidential Debates held the first "modern" debate in 1948 during the Republican Primary. The debate pitted N.Y. Gov. Thomas Dewey against Harold Stassen, the former governor of Minnesota. It was an hour-long radio debate on a single topic: "Outlawing the Communist party in the U.S." This was the first and last presidential debate limited to a single issue.

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson Together in NYC
Rob Skips the Met Gala but Stays in NYC With Kristen
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart checked out of their NYC hotel, hopped into a waiting car, and headed to JFK to catch a flight Wednesday. They didn't go straight to the airport, though — their driver stopped en route to pick them up a few slices of pizza!
Although they were both in the Big Apple, Kristen attended the Met Gala on Monday night without Rob by her side. He missed out on a fun evening with friends since Tom Sturridge and Sienna Miller were also at the bash and ended up leaving with Kristen. They weren't the only famous pals that Kristen spent time with — she arrived with Cameron Diaz and Stella McCartney! Both Kristen and Cameron were decked out in looks by the designer, with Kristen in a lace-embroidered jumpsuit and Cameron in a cobalt-blue caped dress.
The NYC visit wasn't all about the red carpet for Kristen, since she reportedly also checked out a performance of Orphans, which Tom stars in, on Broadway. Rob was also rumored to have been in the audience during a recent, but separate, showing.
Don't forget — Rob and Kristen are both in our POPSUGAR 100 bracket, so make sure to play for your chance to win a Victoria Beckham handbag!

When I go on dive trips, I tend to buy some gear, then sell it afterwards since I don't live anywhere that I can regularly dive / shoot. This works out better than renting, especially if I can find used gear to buy. I have sold here (full 7d Ikelite setup) as well as on ScubaBoard and POTN -- all under Iristyle.
In December I took a quick trip to the Caribbean and housed my Lumix DMC-ZS7 pocket cam since I needed something really small and was OK with something a little less serious. I recently returned from a longer trip where I housed an Olympus E-PL3 for a few weeks, so was OK with something a bit bigger but with more functionality. At one point, I used my 7d, with DS-160 strobes. Since I know that I intend to resell afterwards, I try to take great care of the gear -- I'm particular about long rinses in freshwater after every salt exposure, etc.
Some of the kit, I'm going to hold on to for next time, but some of the bigger ticket items I must part with for now. I'm getting everything listed now, and will provide pics later.
All gear includes original materials, manuals, and is in excellent shape unless otherwise noted. Prices are for PP cash, add 3% if using PP credit. Shipping is included - my choice of USPS priority, USPS first class or FedEx.
From Olympus setup - parts purchased in May from Bluewater Photo - used 2 weeks
* 10Bar E-PL3-Z housing for Olympus E-PL3 with dome port for 14-42 lens - paid $940 - ask $890
http://www.bluewater...s-e-pl3-housing - Scott has a good video review there
Somehow I managed to put a tiny surface scuff, about 3mm in length in the dome port -- probably from trying to get close to a nudibranch -- does not affect IQ. There are a couple of minor rubs on the outside of the dome, that again, do not affect performance.
* 10Bar 67mm Adapter for Semi-dome - paid $48, ask $40
Clips onto the front of the dome and allows a 67mm wet lens to be snapped on or off
* Bluewater Fiber cable from 10bar housing to Sea&Sea strobe - paid $50, ask $40
Does what it says ;0
From Lumix setup - parts purchased around Dec from Reef Photo, Amazon - used for 1 week
* Panasonic DMW-MCTZ10 housing for Lumix TZ8, TZ10 (ZS7) - paid $230 + $95 for adapter - ask $280
Will sell only with the Deeproof M67 MCTZ10 adapter for 67mm wet lenses
The housing was used (but looked brand new) from Amazon, the adapter was new
* Ulcs universal tray with two padded handles paid $90 used, ask $70
Was used when purchased. The tray has a taller handle, and a half-height handle -- worked well for me on both housings
* Inon Cap W35 - paid $30, ask $20
This is what you need to get a regular fiber cable to attach to the DMW-MCTZ10 housing - includes the special plastic cap piece that screw locks into the housing, reflector stickers, stickers for dimming the camera strobe, etc
Some older items that I didn't sell last time -- and forgot to relist!
* Ikelite 100/240V smart charger with international plugs - paid $100, ask $85
* Ikelite 4066.5 NiMh spare battery for DS-160, DS-125 - MSRP $165, ask $110
I got it used, but never had a problem
* Ikelite 9571.3 - 1" ball for Ikelite release handle extender - paid $25, ask $20
When I sold the 7d setup, I sold off one of these, but not the other -- whoops.
I have a couple of Sea&Sea strobes - YS-01 and YS-D1. I could be convinced to sell the YS-01, but only if it's going to go with one of the larger items.
* Sea & Sea YS-01 strobe - bought back for Dec trip, ask $400
If I sold this, I would include the ULCS ballhead adapter for Sea&Sea (paid about $25)
Pictures to come...
10Bar housing for Olympus E-PL3, Lumix DMW-MCTZ10 housing for DMC-ZS7, Ultralight tray, Ikelite charger, battery, cables and more

As it turns out, I've decided to sell the Olympus E-PL3 as well to pay off some bills. This was purchased at the same time as the housing, but from Cameta
* Olympus E-PL3 Micro 4/3 camera (black) with 14-42mm II lens - ask $450
Asking $1300 for Housing + Camera bundle - this would cost you about $1640 brand new
All prices are negotiable, so make me an offer if you want to bundle and get a better deal or similar.

Provides good medical care to patients.
Pay is not keeping up with cost of living increases (0.5%) raises for past 3 years. No room for advancement in you are not a nurse or physician. No respect for physician extenders (physicians assistants, nurse practitioners, genetic counselors). Does not cover continuing education which is typically a standard benefit for physician extenders.
Value your employees and invest in them. Do not over extend the budget by building before you can afford to build without skimping on employee salaries and benefits.

I have been working at Inova part-time (more than 10 years)
ProsThe people I work with at the grunt level are knowledgeable and willing to share their knowledge. Location to where I live. 5 miles from home. It's hard to find any more decent things to say about the system.
ConsNot staff friendly when it comes to scheduling. Too worried about what surveys say and the surveys don't ask relevant questions! If you have a family emergency....well good luck trying to find coverage. Poor, poor, pay. PRN for 10 years and not a penny raise. No benefits, no vacation pay, no sick pay. While the CEO gets bonuses in the six digit figures. Expect you to go out of your way when staffing on busy days, or inclement weather days, but no appreciation when you do go out of your way to help. Right now it is a cut throat environment. Everyone is walking on pins and needles waiting for the next blow to staffing. How they got Magnet Status is beyond me. Senior management is out of touch with what is really happening on the floors. The good directors get pooped upon because they don't play upper managements games and the bad directors are praised because they play the games with brown noses. Don't threaten my job because survey numbers are down.
Advice to ManagementAdviceListen, really listen, to staff. Don't give us meaningless surveys. Let us take care of patients. It's what we do best. Your thoughts on how you expect us to take care of a patient from your glass house is not working.

Nanocrystalline TiB2 is prepared by reaction of NaBH4 and TiCl4. The initial solution-phase reaction affords an amorphous precursor powder from which 5-100 nm TiB2 crystallites are obtained upon annealing at 900-1100 °C. Crystallite sizes depend on the annealing temperature and other processing parameters. Crystallite morphology is size dependent; crystallites smaller than 12-15 nm are cuboidal, whereas crystallites larger than 12-15 nm are hexagonal platelets. The procedure affords gram quantities of the smallest available TiB2 nanocrystallites.

Lovely decor, enjoyed the holiday decorations & lights
The rooms were quiet. Good breakfast in the morning. Staff friendly and helpful to accommodate the guests. Loved to be able to use the computer in the lobby. Enjoyed the fire in the fireplace one evening.
Can't think of a thing I didn't like.
I love the location of this hotel. It's right next to multiple eateries, and close to a Walgreens ,enabling quick pick-up of those items you may have forgotten. We were pleasantly surprised by the now up and running whirlpool. We will return!
Hmmmm The one and ONLY thing I am not fond of at this hotel, is the location of the bar.
Very clean and well appointed
Next to the train tracks--nice that they put ear plugs in the room, but I didn't need them
The customer service, breakfast, pool were all a wonderful surprise. Exceeded our expectations. If you are looking for a place to stay in this area, we highly recommend it.
Everything was great and breakfast was very good as well!

ASIA/SYRIA - Pax Christi International: Europe must not close its doors to Syrian refugees
Damascus (Agenzia Fides) - Pax Christi International urgently appeals to the government in Damascus and forces involved in the Syrian conflict so that the Country's borders are opened in order to allow humanitarian relief to reach the besieged population in areas ravaged by armed conflict.
In a statement sent to Fides Agency, Pax Christi International welcomes the statement of the "Geneva 2" Peace Conference which will be convened on 22 January, and believes that a negotiated political solution to the conflict is essential and urges the government of Syria and a broadly representative delegation from the Syrian opposition to move swiftly and with good will into that process. In view of Geneva 2, Pax Christi International calls on the urgent need for a ceasefire to ensure humanitarian access to the besieged areas before the negotiations begin.
In the statement, the organization expressed concern over reports of some European Union countries placing barriers to entry or forcibly returning asylum-seekers including people who have fled the conflict in Syria. Pax Christi International calls on all national and international authorities to ensure the Syrians who are fleeing the status of refugees. By placing barriers of any kind to them - warns Pax Christi - forces refugees to undertake dangerous crossings and places them at the mercy of smugglers. (GV) (Agenzia Fides 27/11/2013)

France Wants More U.S. Help in Mali
France's military intervention in Mali has revived trans-Atlantic tensions over security issues, this time involving a key counterterrorism battlefield, along with dismay from critics who see U.S. President Barack Obama as too reluctant to use military force. According to interviews with officials from both sides, the French have privately complained about what they see as paltry and belated American military support for their troop deployment, aimed at stopping the advance of militants allied with Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). The Americans question whether French President Francois Hollande's armed intervention, which is entering its third week, was coupled with a thought-through exit strategy. . .

The Andalucia region
This area is ideal for your holiday. Only 5 minutes drive to the beaches, where you have a variety of sandy or rocky beaches. And local to all the white villages of the area, if sight seeing is of interest to you. Malaga Airport is 35 minutes by car, but there is also a train which can be used from the airport to Fuengirola. Fuengirola is a bustling sea side town, and has a lovely marina and a 6km promenade. There is also a ferry which leaves Fuengirola to Benalmadana every day.
Puerto Banus is 25 minutes away by car. Granada with its ski resort and the Alhambra Place are 2 hours away.
The studio is located in a very quiet and peaceful area with local bars, restaurants an a supermarket walking distance away.
Are you looking for an easy holiday, total relaxation when you are at the studio, and uncomplicated travel to all the tourist attractions? Are you looking to find the real Spain? Have the option of visiting the white washed villages of Andalucía, or the marinas and beaches of the coastline? Are you looking for quite intimate nights out, or the Puerto Banus and Marbella night life? Would you like to walk in the mountains, cycle the tracks, or sit and watch the world go by at the many traditional bars and restaurants in the area? If your answer is yes to any of the above, then you have found the ideal studio apartment for your holiday. Malaga international airport is 20 minutes by car, or by train to Fuengirola and then a 5 minutes taxi drive to the villa. Mijas famous for its bull ring, mountain views, donkeys and pour charm can be seen on the mountain side from the villas terraces, and only 15 minutes by car. Gibraltar with its fax free shopping, history and tradition, and the world famous Rock with the Barbery apes is just hour away. A great chance to visit 2 countries on one holiday. The sand dunes of Tarrifa famous for its windsurfing and bohemian feel are just 1 hour 20 minutes away. From there a ferry will take you to Morocco for the day. Malaga is pure history, a buzzing vibrant city which many holiday makers over look, but with its charms and sophistication really must be added to the list of day trips. Granada and the Alhambra Place and Cordoba and the hot baths are all great day trip destinations. Or you cold just chill out. Read about the area from your sun bed while laying by the private pool, or on the many beaches of the coast line - which are only 5 minutes away by car. The studio has every thing you could need to chill out and relax. Some of our guests don't even venture out from the privacy of the gardens and the pool area. The choice really is yours.
La Cala de Mijas
The pool really is private. But - if you want a little more interaction, a 3 minute walk will take you to the community swimming pool and kids pool. This pool is only available for use by the owners and rental tenants of the community. The community pool has a life guide over the summer months and plenty of space for sunbathing. The grassy area has a children's play area, and a private tennis court. There is also a pentanque area. Around the pool is a superb bar restaurant with an international menu. Throughout the summer there is an entertainment diary, with local musicians and flamenco featuring on the evening. The bar restaurant has a pool table. In this area there is also a well stocked supermarket and a tapa bar. This is a quite location, ideal for families and children. Yet only minutes away by car or taxi you will find the resorts of the Costa Del Sol. The area is called Cerros Del Aguila, which means The area of the Eagle. You will see Eagles flying above. 5 minutes by car is the Karting track. Horse riding can be arranged, mountain biking, hiking and site seeing tours. Five minutes away if the Miramar centre with its cinema complex showing films weekly in their original language. Miramar has a great selection of dining and shopping. Blanca, Zara, C&A and Primark to name a few. Between Miramar and the beach is the skate board park, and boats can be hired on the Rio Fuengirola. Fuengirola Castle holds a prime location on the beach and the castle is open over the summer for visits. Tivoli world is our local theme park, with great entertainment and dining, and the cable car takes up to the top of the Mijas mountain range for spectacular views over the coast line and local country side. We have two Aqua parks. One just 5 minutes by car in Fuengirola and the other 15 minutes away in near by Torremolinos. There is a ferry which links Fuengirola marina to Benalmadena marina, and on most days the crew will point out the dolphins that follow the boats along. The coastline has all the usual water sports on offer, and in Marbella, just 20 minutes away there is a cable ski company. snorkelling and Diving is available along the coast, as there are some fantastic rocky bays, and further out some wrecks which can be explored. Gibraltar and Nerja have wonderful caves to be explored. Bike hire is available. I personally would recommend that you go down to Bikini beach, hire a sun bed, listen to the music and order a jug of sangria and one of their famous steaks, burgers or salads. The sand is golden, and the sea shallow and clear, and only 4 minutes by car from the villa. Andalucía is famous for its golf courses. And there are many in the area. You could play 2 different courses every day! There is a golf driving range, and course within walking distance of the villa. And a club house, gym and spar.
There is so much to see and do in this part of Andalucía - one holiday really is not enough!!!

The Federal Aviation Administration has grounded flights to Tel Aviv for a second straight day amid concerns about rocket attacks in the region.
"As the situation continues to evolve we will adjust our guidance accordingly," said U.S. Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx, "but for the time being it is what it is."
At least 31 carriers from the United States, Europe and Asia have canceled flights into Ben Gurion International Airport a day after a rocket launched from the Gaza Strip landed about a mile from the facility.
It's the first since 1991, during the Gulf War, that airlines and agencies have instituted these types of cancellations.

Licence approval to allow growth of Ord River GM cotton
Approval has been given for the commercial release of genetically modified (GM) cotton in Australia's north, paving the way for GM varieties to be grown in the Western Australian Kimberley's Ord River area.
The Office of the Gene Technology Regulator has issued a licence for the commercial release of five varieties of GM cotton, which has already been grown successfully in southern Australia.
The regulator says the varieties approved for release have the same soil, water and nutrient requirements as non-GM cotton.
Monsanto, one of the companies seeking a licence to grown GM cotton, says large scale production is not planned at this stage, although there will be some trials and seed production programs.
The Western Australian Farmers Federation believes GM cotton will provide the backbone for an expansion of the Ord River Irrigation Scheme.
