Plan your trip to and from the airport on Orbitz.com, where you can find the best deals on air tickets for flight from Brasilia. The main airport in Brasilia is the Brasilia International Airport, the third-busiest airport in Brazil. It is outside of the metropolis, almost seven miles from downtown. Sixteen domestic and international airlines currently serve the airport, including American Airlines, Avianca Brazil, TAM Airlines, Delta Airlines and Webjet.
The official parking lot of the airport can accommodate 1,034 vehicles, 81 of which are reserved for disabled passengers. Parking fees apply and are determined by the hour or by the day. Unmanned and uncovered spaces are also available inside the airport grounds.
The airport is accessible by airport shuttles, buses, taxis and rental cars. The 131 airport bus line stops at Rodoferroviaria Train Station and goes back to the airport. An executive line also operates from the airport and services the Esplanade, Plano Piloto Bus Station and the North and South Hotelier sectors. Taxis are the fastest way to get to the airport, taking approximately 15 minutes to get from downtown Brasilia. You can arrange a taxi or cab rental at Orbitz.com.
Passengers with early or late flights can grab a meal before departure in one of the fast food stands or restaurants inside the airport. Some of the dining options in the airport include Giraffas, Chocolatier, Grao Café, Restaurante Favorito Express, Kopenhagen and Neper Café. Check Orbitz.com for low-fare flights from Brasilia and find more hotel and restaurant options at your selected destination.
As the third most populous city in Brazil, Salvador de Bahia is a tourist mecca. Orbitz.com books flights to Salvador and hotel reservations within this northeast coastal city, also known as the "Capital of Happiness." The Deputado Luis Eduardo Magalhaes International Airport (SSA) handles all air traffic for the city and occupies a large plot of land about 25 miles north of the city. A number of regional, national and international air carriers fly in and out of SSA, including American Airlines, Air Europa and TAM Airlines.
Transportation from Deputado Luis Eduardo Magalhaes International Airport
A new metro rail system allows for quick access to the center of Salvador. Bus lines, taxis and rental cars are also available. The airport is only 25 miles out of town, but the main connecting road has become a tourist attraction in its own right. Expect some slow traffic and delays if you travel by automobile.
With a tropical, equatorial climate, the weather in Salvador is predictable and relatively unchanging. High temperatures are in the 80s all year round, while lows usually dip into the 70s. The humid air mass means that Salvador has no dry season. The city averages nearly 80 inches of precipitation every year, with April through August being the wettest months.
Outdoor street fairs and carnivals are one of the biggest draws in Salvador. As a center for Afro-Brazilian culture, the African influence can be clearly seen in the city's art, architecture, music and cuisine. Miles of beaches are another great way to enjoy this coastal city. Go to Orbitz.com when you're looking for flights to Salvador at a discount price.

Cost-effectiveness of Extending Cervical Cancer Screening Intervals Among Women With Prior Normal Pap Tests
ABSTRACT Annual cervical cancer screening in women with many prior normal Pap tests is common despite limited evidence on the cost-effectiveness of this strategy. We estimated the cost-effectiveness of screening women with 3 or more prior normal tests compared with screening those with no prior tests.
We used a validated cost-effectiveness model in conjunction with data on the prevalence of biopsy-proven cervical neoplasia in women enrolled in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program. Women were grouped according to age at the final Program Pap test (aged < 30, 30-44, 45-59, and 60-65 years) and by screening history (0, 1, 2, and 3+ consecutive prior normal Program tests) to estimate cost per life-year and quality-adjusted life-year associated with annual, biennial, and triennial screening.
For women aged 30-44 years with no prior tests, incremental cost-effectiveness ratios ranged from 20,533 US dollars for screening triennially (compared with no further screening) to 331,837 US dollars for screening annually (compared with biennially) per life-year saved. Among same-aged women with 3 or more prior normal Program tests, incremental cost-effectiveness ratios for the same measures ranged from 60,029 US dollars to 709,067 US dollars per life-year saved. Inclusion of the most conservative utility estimates resulted in incremental cost-effectiveness ratios in excess of 100,000 US dollars per quality-adjusted life-year saved associated with annual screening of same-aged women with 3 or more prior normal tests compared with biennial screening.
As the number of prior normal Pap tests increases, the costs per life-year saved increase substantially. Resources should be prioritized for screening those never or rarely screened women.

- "To our knowledge, this is the first analysis to evaluate the costeffectiveness of alternate screening strategies to prevent cervical cancer in Norway. We expand upon previous modelling studies, which look at primary HPV DNA testing in developed countries (Goldie et al, 2004, 2006; Sherlaw-Johnson and Philips, 2004; Kim et al, 2005; Bidus et al, 2006; Kulasingam et al, 2006; Goldhaber- Fiebert et al, 2008) to include new alternative triage strategies for older women who are HPV-positive, but cytology-negative. There is no consensus regarding how to optimally manage HPV-positive results to avoid over referral and unwarranted stress for women (Cuzick et al, 2006a) and the choice of management strategy for HPV þ /CytÀ women may depend on other factors such as colposcopy resource constraints and preference to minimise false-positive results.

Article: Cost-effectiveness of cervical cancer screening with primary human papillomavirus testing in Norway[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: New screening technologies and vaccination against human papillomavirus (HPV), the necessary cause of cervical cancer, may impact optimal approaches to prevent cervical cancer. We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of alternative screening strategies to inform cervical cancer prevention guidelines in Norway. We leveraged the primary epidemiologic and economic data from Norway to contextualise a simulation model of HPV-induced cervical cancer. The current cytology-only screening was compared with strategies involving cytology at younger ages and primary HPV-based screening at older ages (31/34+ years), an option being actively deliberated by the Norwegian government. We varied the switch-age, screening interval, and triage strategies for women with HPV-positive results. Uncertainty was evaluated in sensitivity analysis. Current cytology-only screening was less effective and more costly than strategies that involve switching to primary HPV testing in older ages. For unvaccinated women, switching at age 34 years to primary HPV testing every 4 years was optimal given the Norwegian cost-effectiveness threshold ($83,000 per year of life saved). For vaccinated women, a 6-year screening interval was cost-effective. When we considered a wider range of strategies, we found that an earlier switch to HPV testing (at age 31 years) may be preferred. Strategies involving a switch to HPV testing for primary screening in older women is expected to be cost-effective compared with current recommendations in Norway.British Journal of Cancer 03/2012; 106(9):1571-8.

- "For women with regular access to health care, cervical cancer mortality can be greatly reduced by regular Pap tests (Sanders & Taira, 2003). Still, this disease exacts substantial health and economic costs, suggesting that widespread HPV vaccination could prove cost effective (Elbasha, Dasback, & Insinga, 2007; Kulasingam et al., 2006), particularly among preadolescent girls (Kim & Goldie, 2008). HPV vaccination may be especially beneficial to Hispanic and African American women, who are less likely to get regular Pap tests (Huerta, 2003; O'Brien et al., 2003). "
Article: Behavioral Interventions to Increase HPV Vaccination Acceptability Among Mothers of Young Girls[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To determine the most effective ways to present human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine risk and benefit information to mothers in Hispanic, African American, and White communities, to increase mothers' intentions to vaccinate their daughters against HPV. The study used a 3 x 2 between-subjects factorial design, involving 3 different risk presentation formats (graphical HPV statistics, nongraphical HPV statistics, or no-statistics control) and the presence or absence of rhetorical questions (RQ). Data were collected from a national sample of 471 mothers of girls ages 11-16. The primary outcome variable was mothers' intention to vaccinate their daughters against HPV. Secondary outcomes included mothers' self-reported message comprehension and perceptions of daughters' vulnerability to HPV infection, infection severity, vaccine efficacy, and obstacles to immunization. Results showed that both risk presentation format and RQs had an overall positive effect on mothers' intention to vaccinate their daughters. However, the interventions appear to be more effective when used separately than when used in combination. Each of these interventions is brief and could easily be implemented by health care providers as well as in patient health communication literature.Health Psychology 01/2010; 29(1):29-39.

- "This chapter will synthesize the findings from costeffectiveness analyses (CEAs) that have focused on cytologybased cervical cancer screening and identify several qualitative themes [2] [3] [4] [5]. Second, consistent findings from analyses that have considered HPV-DNA testing as a triage for equivocal cytologic abnormalities [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] and HPV-DNA testing as a primary screening test with or without cytology [7–9,11–13] will be described for countries with existing screening programs. "
ABSTRACT: In the last two decades, computer-based models of cervical cancer screening have been used to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of different secondary prevention policies. Analyses in countries with existing screening programs have focused on identifying the optimal screening interval, ages for starting and stopping screening, and consideration of enhancements to conventional cytology, such as human papillomavirus (HPV)-DNA testing as a triage for equivocal results or as a primary screening test for women over the age of 30. Analyses in resource-poor settings with infrequent or no screening have focused on strategies that enhance the linkage between screening and treatment, consider noncytologic alternatives such as HPV-DNA testing, and target women between the ages of 35 and 45 for screening one, two, or three times per lifetime. Despite differences in methods and assumptions, this paper identifies the qualitative themes that are consistent among studies, and highlights important methodological challenges and high-priority areas for further work.Vaccine 09/2006; 24 Suppl 3:S3/164-70.

Call of the Wild: MINI at the Put Foot Rally
Feeling the soft spraying mist of Victoria Falls on your face, watching the big five prowl the open plains, seeing a giant sun set over the great Zambezi river. They're those dizzying, once-in-a-lifetime experiences on every intrepid adventurer's bucket list.
And if it's raw, unfiltered African travel that you're after, it doesn't get much more thrilling than the Put Foot Rally. Starting in South Africa and meandering through Botswana, Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi and Mozambique – all within the pinch-yourself parameters of seventeen days – this rally is for the most lionhearted of adventurers only. But coursing through unchartered savannah brings its own set of pitfalls, as any of the 60 or so teams will tell you. False maps and flat tires, with only a circling pride of lions for company? Stranger things have happened on the Put Foot Rally.
But none of this has put off team Shake & Bake, the crew of Durbanite daredevils that took on the challenge of the Put Foot Rally this year. And thanks to MINI South Africa, the four-strong team – Gordon McTavish, Meegan Rourke, Andrew McGill and Louise Gans — had a gleaming new fifth member: a souped-up MINI All4 Countryman. With MINI as the crew's official vehicle and after getting some intensive MINI Driver Training, they put their MINI to the test over seven thousand kilometres' worth of road ahead.
With the efficiently built and urban-chic design of MINI, it might seem like a fish out of water in the African savannah. But that's only at first glance. As an iconic rallying car, MINI has plenty of off-road anecdotes to tell. Just ask Stéphane Peterhansel and his co-driver Jean-Paul Cottret, who won the 2012 Dakar Rally in South America thanks to the MINI ALL4 Racing car. Team Shake & Bake carried that rally spirit torch across the African continent.
But there's more to the Put Foot Rally than the call of the open plains. The team are hoping to raise R50,000 (nearly €5,000) for Project Rhino, the anti-poaching foundation, and the eponymous Put Foot Foundation, which seeks to provide underprivileged school children with brand new quality leather school shoes. Shoes can help to prevent the spread of parasitic infections such as hookworm and threadworm, as well as minimizing discomfort and cold, and granting children access to schools with a stricter uniform policy. And if all goes to plan, the work of the Put Foot Foundation will put six hundred pairs of shoes on little feet this year. It's positive steps for a demographic so desperately in need.
"What an amazing feeling it's going to be, leaving each point along our route knowing that we helped to make a difference in the lives of those children. We're really hoping that people will get involved to help make this happen," said Meegan Rourke, one of the crew members, before they began their trek.
In support of these causes, MINI South Africa has agreed to match all cash fundraised by Shake & Bake, up to the value of R100,000 (about €10,000). So anything you donate today, MINI will double. Now that's an incentive if ever there was one.
You can see their whole journey chronicled on their blog and Facebook page. Check out the highlights here!

At least Maria didn't try to suggest it was illegal to do a FSBO, I don't think the Realtor that did that posts on here anymore, but yes where is the hard evidence, that it is less safe.
You risk losing a potential buyer because if they are not working with an agent, they may not have heard that it helps to be prequalified. A lot of people don't need a mortgage, when they submit an offer, the bank will write a letter stating they have the funds to cover the amount of the house (the price of the house will be written in.) Would you want to risk losing buyers like these? There are a lot out there, perhaps they inherited a home they just sold, or a business they just sold etc.
Yes it is reasonable. They simply have to contact a loan officer and can usually have a letter within 15 min. All you're really looking for is that they've taken the first step.

Often FSBO's do not want to pay a commission to a buyers agent, but if you are willing to do so, you may get more qualified buyers as well.
Hope that helps!
It certainly doesn't hurt to ask but many buyers aren't going to toss out that information when they are just looking. Many clients that I have were at one time FSBO's and what I hear most often is a lot of their potential buyers blew them off when they started asking about being pre-approved. It seems that a lot of buyers are not willing to give up that information to a FSBO. Whereas, as an agent that's the first question I ask and I don't show them property until I know whether or not they are equipped to purchase. I don't have time to waste and neither do my sellers. I would most definitely not accept a contract though without a pre-approval. In fact, if you have a buyer wanting to negotiate I would most definitely require a pre-approval before I started tossing around figures. That just keeps you on the safe side.
while it is not unreasonable to request the pre approval,
when selling on your own buyers have a different mindset..
they may not be so forthright to share this with you upon
first look..
i think that if you are insistant on trying this route you may
want to ask some key questions before showing to anyone..
pre screening potential buyers is key..
I would recommend not accepting any offers without one.

Soldiers board a C-17 transport plane to depart from Iraq near Nasiriyah on Dec. 17, 2011. AP View Enlarged Image
Iraq: "America is coming to help" the starving victims persecuted by the Islamic State, President Obama vows. But his treating Iraq as a "dumb war" caused this evil entity to emerge.
With apologies to Jim Carrey, Obama has turned what he insisted was George W. Bush's "dumb war" into very much his own "dumberer war."
His plan was to "give our military a new mission on my first day in office: ending this war." It hasn't worked out too well, has it? Just ask the thousands of non-Muslims in northern Iraq now dying of hunger and thirst after being chased to an arid mountaintop by the new al-Qaida offshoot Islamic State.
Obama's excuse for leaving and losing was that "we lack the resources to finish the job" in Afghanistan "because of our commitment to Iraq." He promised, "As president, I will make the fight against al-Qaida and the Taliban the top priority that it should be. This is a war that we have to win."
Well, we've lost the Afghanistan war, and the Taliban are returning, because troops are leaving there, too.
The Obama presidency has taught the world the foolishness of being a U.S. ally. Among those we've betrayed are the Kurds, perhaps our most reliable Mideast ally next to Israel. They've been staunchly loyal to the U.S. in both the Iran-Iraq war and in removing Saddam Hussein. They stood with us even in spite of our refusal to give them their own state.
Syrian Kurds have now had to cross the border and assist their Iraqi brethren in fighting the Islamic State on a front stretching over 600 miles. They'll need all the help they can get.
Obama's speech on our airstrikes may be the most disingenuous presidential statement since Bill Clinton's excuses about Monica Lewinsky. "My fellow Americans, the world is confronted by many challenges," he said, as if to say "don't blame me for Iraq with all I've got on my plate." And he claimed the minimalistic action he's taking now represents "a hallmark of American leadership. That's who we are."
America the Betrayer? Hardly. But for a president who has long touted his personal diplomatic skills — even going back to before he ever practiced them, during his campaign — the Iraq crisis shows how inept he is at the negotiating table.
If he'd been able to reach agreement with the Iraqis to keep U.S. forces in the country, there would be no Islamic State reportedly beheading Christian children. Even the liberal Washington Post recognizes his limited bombings as "more of his administration's half measures ... unconnected to any coherent strategy to address the conflagration spreading across the Middle East ... a policy that is both minimalist and unrealistic."
Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., are calling for "a comprehensive strategy to degrade ISIS" in sync with "our Kurdish, Iraqi and Syrian partners who are fighting ISIS."
But how can a diplomatic incompetent forge such a coalition — especially when, as former White House Iraq adviser for both Bush and Obama, Douglas Ollivant, remarks, Obama just "wants the Iraq problem not to exist"? Thinking Iraq was a "dumb war" proved not to be very smart.
PC: After a Muslim terrorist gunned down unarmed Marines in Tennessee, the head of Homeland Security revealed a policy to downplay any Islamic role in such terror. The feds are now blindfolding each other on the threat.Homeland Security chief Jeh Johnson refuses to call Islamic terror "Islamic," ...

Cup-bearer to Queen Catherine of Braganza 1663-?d.; standard-bearer of gent. pensioners 1676-84.3
Lt.-col. Earl of Bath's Regt. (later 10 Ft.) 1685-7; lt.-gov. of Plymouth 1687-d.4
The fortunes of the Slanning family were made by a steward of the Inner Temple who acquired much ex-monastic property under the Tudors. One of them sat for Plymouth in 1558. Slanning's father was returned for Plympton, seven miles from Maristow, at both elections in 1640, though in the Long Parliament he chose to sit for Penryn. As governor of Pendennis and vice-admiral, he raised one of the famous Cornish infantry regiments in the Civil War, and was mortally wounded at the storming of Bristol in 1643, when Slanning was only three months old. The estate was sequestrated when his mother married another Cavalier, her husband's friend Richard Arundell, and in 1650 he compounded for £1,197 13s.11d.5
Slanning was made a knight of the Bath at the coronation, doubtless through the Earl of Bath, son of another Cornish hero of the Civil War. His first marriage, to a pious and good-humoured lady, connected him with one of the most powerful figures in the Clarendon administration, and earned him a baronetcy, a minor post at Court, and the grant of the governorship of Pendennis in reversion to his step-father. He inherited from his father a taste for chemistry, becoming a fellow of the Royal Society, and producing 'a cheaper and more excellent way of melting, forging, and refining iron and other metals with turf and peat, to the great preservation of wood and timber'. He first stood for Plympton with Bath's support at a by-election on 4 Oct. 1666, but was defeated by the country candidate, Sir Edmund Fortescue. However, the mayor was induced, with the connivance of the sheriff and under-sheriff, to send up another return in Slanning's favour, which the House condemned as 'absurd and unusual'. They were held in custody until Slanning's petition was rejected. Fortescue died before the year was out, and, though Joseph Williamson had his eye on the seat, he is unlikely to have opposed Slanning's natural interest. A moderately active Member of the Cavalier Parliament, he was appointed to 69 committees. Together with Sir Robert Carr he brought in on 3 Apr. 1668 a complaint against the conduct of (Sir) Thomas Tyrrell on the bench, but he was not named to the committee which was instructed to pursue the matter by drafting a resolution against the fining and imprisonment of jurymen. He was, however, among those ordered to consider the bills to prevent election abuses (8 Dec. 1669) and to suppress conventicles (2 Mar. 1670). Although he was named to the committee of elections and privileges in seven sessions, and figured on both lists of the court party in 1669-71 among those Members who usually voted for supply, his attendance seems to have been spasmodic. On 21 Feb. 1671 he defaulted on a call of the House, and, though he was listed among the court dependants in 1675, and appointed to the committee on the bill to prevent the growth of Popery (27 May), Sir Richard Wiseman complained that 'he was absent for the most part, if not all' of the autumn session. On the working lists he was assigned to the management of his step-father, now Lord Arundell of Trerice, who was to be 'sure to take care of him', and during the long recess he was appointed standar-bearer of the gentlemen pensioners. He certainly attended the next session, for Thomas Neale reported him as one of the tellers for the corn bounty on 10 Apr. 1677, though according to the Journals this was his half-brother. Shaftesbury marked him 'doubly vile', and in A Seasonable Argument he was described erroneously as carver to the King, and credited with £2,000 in boons and the grant in reversion of Pendennis. But the only favours that can be traced are a short patent for his smelting invention and the grant of the manorial profits of Dartmoor, described by Sir Charles Harbord as 'very mean'. In the closing sessions of the Cavalier Parliament he was included in both lists of the court party, and appointed to the committee of inquiry into the Popish Plot (21 Oct. 1678).
