Keel problems for Groupe Bel
by Barcelona World Race on 8 Mar 2011
Groupe Bel has reported keel problems - Barcelona World Race Barcelona World Race ©
Barcelona World Race skippers Kito de Pavant and Seb Audigane on Groupe Bel, at 1640hrs UTC this evening informed their technical team about an unusual noise from the keel. Initial examination revealed abnormal movement in the head of the keel. Any further diagnosis was impossible due to 25 knots of NW'ly wind and big following seas.
Groupe Bel was approximately 280 miles west of Cape Horn at 2100hrs UTC with the crew remaining on course and focused on the getting out of the Pacific, carefully monitoring the evolution of the weather and sea conditions.
Race Direction of the Barcelona World Race watch the progress of Groupe Bel and have been in regular contact with the French duo, and they have alerted the MRCC Chile as a security precaution.
Fully ballasted with two reefs in the main and the small ORC headsail, Groupe Bel progresses towards Cape Horn which they are expected in around 24 hours time. The duo will carry out a more detailed evaluation of the problem when they are in the lee of the land, in flatter water.
Groupe Bel lies in sixth position in the Barcelona World Race after 66 days since leaving Barcelona. The two co-skippers have significantly reduced their speed to preserve the safety of the boat and themselves.
'To make a round the world race under sail is not an exercise to be taken lightly.' They said before leaving, and their parting words remain true today.

We launched a new program in our series of Oil and Gas Briefings. Entitled, "Metering and Royalties Issues," the program covers how royalties are defined in various types of leases, as well as explores basic metering technology used by the industry. The program is designed to help landowners follow how their royalties are determined from the well, through refining/marketing, and to their royalty checks. The first meeting was hosted by the Carroll CFB; over 100 landowners attended. Special thanks to Michele and the Carroll County Public Policy Action Team for their efforts!

SALINAS, Calif. -- Fresh Express is voluntarily recalling some of its salad products in Mississippi and other states because of a possible health risk from Listeria.
The salad is being pulled from stores after one package tested positive for the bacterium in a sample test conducted by the Ohio Department of Agriculture. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration says no illnesses have been reported.
The recall covers more than 2,800 cases of Fresh Express Veggie Lovers Salad distributed to 13 states, including Mississippi. The recalled salad mix has a product code of I208 and use-by date of August 10.
Fresh Express is part of Cincinnati-based Chiquita Brands.
Listeria can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

I was like wtf is this but it got better and better.
Pure crazy animation at it's finest.
I think I remember seeing another one of these movies a while back and as I recall the animation style was fluid and imaginitive. This one on the other hand took that cartoon and did that all over again and has improved itself animation wise. It told it's story plain and simple and was a fun watch all around. No wonder it won the 2011 Tank Award. That said Congratulations on the achievement. I think it deserved it
This is seriously one of the most inspiring toons I've ever seen. It just makes me want to work so much harder to become a great animator. I'm not very good at Spanish, but la animación es fantastica, tu inspiras me mucho, gracias!

Chesapeake Hospitality Assumes Management of Three Turnaround Hotels
Wednesday January 22nd, 2014 - 10:01AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
GREENBELT, MD—Chesapeake Hospitality, a third-party hotel management company based here, has taken over management of the InnPlace Hotel Bensalem in Bensalem, PA, the Comfort Suites BWI in Linthicum Heights, MD, and the Holiday Inn Express Mt. Holly in Westampton, NJ, bringing its management portfolio to 27 properties.
"For Chesapeake Hospitality, 2013 was an exponential growth year. These three new property additions are part of a continuing strategy and also demonstrate our solid reputation in the industry for turnaround management," stated Kim Sims, president of Chesapeake Hospitality. "While advancing our third-party management business will continue to be integral to our growth plan in 2014, we foresee implementing a multifaceted approach that also includes potential development prospects."
The 76-room Holiday Inn Express Mt. Holly provides easy access to Philadelphia and all of southern New Jersey. The InnPlace Hotel Bensalem sits adjacent to the PARX Casino and Racetrack and will convert to a major brand upon completion of renovation. And the Comfort Suites BWI is ideally suited for the business travelers to Baltimore Washington International Airport and Baltimore's Inner Harbor.
The Comfort Suites BWI is currently closed as it undergoes a property renovation. It is scheduled to re-open under the Choice brand in the second quarter of this year.

Well, it's halfway through 2016, and not much has changed since the beginning of the year. Despite the terrorism acts in Orlando, FL and Turkey, and the Brexit referendum, little has happened to affect the travel industry. Overall, things might have slowed a bit, but a majority of the fundamentals are holding steady, including occupancy, ADR and RevPAR. I've been asked why this cycle has lasted longer than those preceding it. As far as I am concerned, it's due to a single phrase: Never Again.

******As some of you may have noticed my shop has undergone a major change. I'm no longer offering crochet. I'm now focusing on my love for sewing. I'm slowly adding new items to my shop, so be sure and keep your eyes open. I'm always open to custom orders as well.*****
I have always enjoying sewing and creating unique items. I also love the look of vinyl tees and that's what you will find most of here in my shop. Crafting is in my blood, it's what I do! Even from a very young age I was always making things and thinking up what I could create next.
When I'm not creating tees or sewing, you can find me chasing around my 3 children and just being the typical Mom.

Jordan trade deficit on the rise
The statistical data issued Monday by the Jordanian Department of Statistics indicate that the value of the Kingdom's exports reached JD 384.2 million (US$538 million) during January 2011. This means an increase of 18.3% compared with January 2010.
Meanwhile, the value of re-exports has reached JD 75.1 million with an increase of 18.6% compared with the same period of 2010. The Jordanian imports reached JD 1134.2 million (US$1588 million) during January 2011, thus increasing by 40.8 % compared with the same period of 2010. Accordingly, the total exports have reached JD 459.3 million during January 2011, therefore growing by 18.3% compared with the same period of 2010.
The deficit in the trade balance, which is calculated by deducting the value of imports from the value of total exports, has reached JD 674.9 million in current prices; therefore, the deficit has increased during January 2011 to 61.6% compared with the same period of 2010. As a consequence, the imports coverage by exports stood at 40.5%, while it was 48.2% for the same period of 2010, which means a decrease by (7.7%) percentage points.
As for commodities, the main exported items that witnessed an increase in their export value were clothes and its related accessories, vegetables, crude potash and crude phosphate. Meanwhile, there was a decrease in the value of Jordan's exports of pharmaceutical products and fertilizers. As for the imported commodities, there was an increase in the imports value of crude oil, machinery, machine tools and accessories, plastics and its products and iron and its products. Meanwhile there was a decrease in the imports value of machines, electric appliances and its parts, vehicles, motorcycles and its parts.

VisitEngland Silver Award for Green Tourism
In the heart of North York Moors National Park you will find Craven Garth, a family run working farm nestling in the beautiful Valley of Rosedale and surrounded by stunning scenery. This cluster of traditional cottages has been renovated from the old barns and approved by VisitEngland National Quality Assessment Scheme to welcome walkers and cyclists. Look closer and you will discover historic abbeys, castles and priories. Walking, cycling and horse riding could have been invented for the North York Moors, with breathtaking heather moorland, coastal paths, steep-sloped valleys, rolling hills and fragrant pine forests to explore all in the same day. Take to the trees on a rope swing in Dalby Forest, or hire a bike and explore a landscape of ruins, legends and endless horizons. Step back in time with Britain's most popular heritage steam railway and enjoy stunning scenery along 18 miles of railway through the North York Moors National Park to Whitby. From Pickering's well-preserved castle to the Gothic splendour of Rievaulx Abbey, the landscape is peppered with places of historic interest. Unearth Bronze and Iron Age settlements at Roulston Scar, experience life during World War II at Eden Camp, or visit Ryedale Folk Museum for a day of historic fun.

"Winner of prestigious Pickering in Bloom 2013 - relax in the beauty and tranquillity of Hungate's award-winning gardens . . ."
For over 30 years, English Country Cottages has featured Hungate Cottages in its brochure.A short stroll from the heart of this charming old country town, Hungate Cottages are tucked away with a delightful 'secret garden' atmosphere of peace and tranquillity. A wonderful holiday location, with the vast and magnificent North York Moors on the doorstep, there is easy access to the beautiful east coast, the city of York and a whole host of fascinating places to visit. Outstanding comfort and style of these cottages, combined with a superb location, makes this an ideal all-year holiday destination.Pickering is a delight - old fashioned friendliness and an unhurried pace of life combine with charming old inns, 12th-century castle, museums, and remarkable medieval frescoes in the local church, and the North Yorkshire Moors Railway takes visitors on a nostalgic journey through spectacular heather-clad moorland scenery to Grosmont. City of York 26 miles. Castle Howard, setting for TV's Brideshead Revisited, Nunnington Hall (NT), Duncombe Park, and Rievaulx Abbey, are just a few treasures to discover. York offers the majestic minster, the fascinating Jorvik Viking Centre, the Castle Museum, the National Railway Museum, and excellent shopping facilities. On the east coast lie Scarborough and Bridlington, the picturesque fishing villages of Robin Hood's Bay, and Staithes, and the fascinating old port of Whitby, with its Captain Cook connections, as well as 3 miles of sandy beaches and a colourful harbour, while the popular resort of Scarborough is 17 miles away offering excellent shopping and family entertainment.

We loved the fire, the free logs and little touches such as fresh flowers – it felt like home. The children loved the freedom of the gardens and could not wait to get home from our excursions! We loved coming and going through the heavy black gate into an oasis in this nice town."
