Furuno has established training facilities in India and the Philippines through close cooperation with the newly established Moloobhoy Training Center in Mumbai and COMPASS Training Center in the Philippines.
The two training centers have started to provide the 2-day Furuno type specific ECDIS training course under the NavSkills umbrella having their instructors trained in Denmark and under the subsequent on-site training syllabus provided by Furuno INS Training Center in Denmark. This means that the two training centers offer the identical training to the training provided from Furuno's own training centers in Denmark and Singapore as well as other NavSkills training centers already established.
"It is a good step forward in providing type specific ECDIS training locally in Asia, and by adding these two major hubs to our training network we are able to service our good customers even better", says Managing Director Mr. Yutaka Wada, head in charge of Furuno's training organization. "We look forward to this new cooperation and we rest assure that our customers will experience many advantages out of it."
A.S. Moloobhoy has for several years been Furuno's national distributor in India with offices in Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata and many other places in India. Moloobhoy has been servicing the maritime industry in India for more than hundred years and now established the first training center in their headquarters in Mumbai. The training center can accommodate up to six navigators per training course and they are providing the training on the real Furuno equipment, which allows for a better familiarization with the equipment. The Furuno type specific ECDIS training course is approved by ClassNK.
COMPASS Training Center is located in Manila and has been providing high quality training to the maritime industry for two years. COMPASS was carefully selected by Furuno as a partner in the provision of type specific ECDIS training based on their vast experience as a training provider and their high standards in the training service, which fully met the criteria of Furuno to become an accredited training provider. COMPASS has a wide range of training courses that they offer to the maritime industry and now COMPASS adds the Furuno accredited type specific ECDIS training to the list.

Every catastrophe in industry lends added force to the contention that the welfare of the employed population would be vastly improved if means and personnel were available to apply existing knowledge about prevention of accidents and disease. Mining is classed as a dangerous trade, yet much is known about the causes and prevention of dangerous exposures and much can be done to reduce the hazardous nature of this occupation. The United States Bureau of Mines investigated a recent disastrous explosion near Beckley, W. Va., and showed again that every coal mine is potentially a hazard for gas. Although the mine in question had been in operation for forty years without a report of the existence of gas, dangerous concentrations were discovered in the subsequent inquiry. The official report states that smoking was not prohibited and that probably all employees carried matches, contrary to all existing safety recommendations. It

Parliamentary vote held in wake of security crackdown; Assembly has little policy-making clout; Bahrain seen as bulwark against rising Iran.
October 23, 2010 12:14 by Reuters
Bahrainis began to cast their votes for a new parliament on Saturday against a backdrop of rising sectarian tensions in the Gulf Arab country where decision making is tightly controlled by its rulers.
Bahrain, home to the U.S. Fifth Fleet, has a Shi'ite majority population but is governed by the Sunni al-Khalifa dynasty, which allies Saudi Arabia and the United States see as a bulwark against the regional influence of Shi'ite power Iran.
The island kingdom is the smallest Gulf Arab nation but a reform process launched by King Hamad bin Isa al-Khalifa a decade ago has been closely watched in the region, especially after the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq brought Shi'ites to power there.
Saturday's elections are the third since the establishment of the current parliament, which has limited powers because bills need to pass an upper house whose members are appointed by the king.
The run-up to the polls was overshadowed by a broad security crackdown against some Shi'ite opposition groups in August. The government has also clamped down on bloggers and human rights activists.
Observers say the level of participation and any increase in street protests after the elections will be more telling than the actual results, where few changes are expected.
Abdallah Hassan, voting in the Shi'ite village of Karranah, was not optimistic that the elections would help address the Shi'ite community's grievances against the government. Many say they face discrimination over state housing and jobs.
"There is no change in Bahrain, whether you have elections or not … The parliamentarians can't change the laws and the economic situation," he said.
Polls opened at 0500 GMT and will close at 1700 GMT. Results are expected to be announced on Sunday morning.
Voting day was expected to be largely peaceful, but two police helicopters were circling above the capital.
Bahrain, with 1.3 million inhabitants and — unlike its neighbours — no oil and gas reserves, relies on foreign investment and tries to present itself as having a business-friendly environment.
"People in Bahrain were not expecting this crackdown, it came as a surprise and has imposed itself on the campaigns," said Jassim Hussain, an outgoing member of parliament for the main Shi'ite opposition group Wefaq.
Next week, 23 men charged with plotting to overthrow the political system will appear in court for the first hearing in their trial.
Another voter said he believed the crackdown — which drew condemnation from international human rights groups and mild censure from Washington — was not related to the elections.
"It's a coincidence, the arrests just happened a few months ago. King Hamad had been soft and lenient with (those arrested) and they saw this as weakness," said businessman Jamil Wafa as he queued to cast his vote at the City Centre mall in Manama.
The polling station is one of 10 general voting stations where voters can vote outside their residential area, a matter of concern for the opposition which says this makes monitoring more difficult.
Wefaq has fielded only 18 candidates for the 40-seat assembly. Critics accuse Bahrain of delineating its voting districts in such a way as to ensure the Shi'ite opposition will not have a majority in parliament.
Some densely populated Shi'ite districts have up to 15,000 registered voters, while areas where only Sunni candidates are running have a much smaller number on the electoral roll.

Josh Beckett entered Saturday's game with a fine 11-7 career record against the Bombers, but it certainly hasn't been easy. His ERA stood at 5.90, and he had given up 24 homers in 23 starts. That's why the Red Sox have to be thrilled about just how outstanding Beckett has been in two starts versus…

Davis Holds Social Security Forum in Bham
By Alabama Public Radio
Birmingham, AL – Congressman Artur Davis is holding a social security forum Monday morning in Birmingham. Meanwhile, officials say Democratic leaders in Washington, D.C. have been turning to Davis recently to help revive the Democratic party in the South. Davis says party members have to get out the message that they have new ideas. Since the beginning of 2005, the Birmingham Democrat has been appointed as a senior deputy whip, as a regional co-chair of the party's efforts to win more House seats, and as a leader of the New Democratic Coalition. That group of moderates was created during the Clinton administration. The Democratic Party has been in the congressional minority for almost 10 years now.

She was a very brave girl and forever we will love and remember her. 12/17/95 - 8/17/09 On 8/25/09 a litter of Golden Retriever Pups were borne and I sent my Mom to be the Nanny, and later one special little girl from that litter became my Pawrents (& 3m's) pup, CandySugar!

ARMONK, N.Y. -- The roof for a gazebo in Armonk's Wampus Brook Park collapsed recently, damaging a truck underneath it.
The collapse was announced by North Castle Town Administrator Joan Goldberg at the Town Board's June 25 meeting when discussion came up about a proposed change order for renovation work on the structure.
The board, according to Goldberg, authorized about $34,000 for work, including replacement of decking and railings, along with electrical work. Deficient structural supports were discovered by a contractor, according to Goldberg. Steel collars around the gazebo's concrete columns had eroded, she explained.
A change order, in the amount of $17,650.39, is being sought by contractor Prime Building Services Inc. Goldberg mentioned that the change order covers replacing the structural supports.
The Town Board did not vote on the change order at the meeting, with Supervisor Michael Schiliro saying it wanted better information first.
It was disclosed that the collapse will impact a July 12 concert, with borrowing a bandstand mentioned as a possible alternative.
The gazebo was built in 1967 and was a project from the Lions Club, according to Ed Woodyard, who was among those at the Town Board meeting. Woodyard wants the gazebo to be restored.
There were no injuries due to the collapse, according to a story from The Examiner.
Video of the Town Board's full discussion about the gazebo is available here.
