Anyway, I looked high & low for one w/lights, because since I have a hearing disability, I cannot always rely on my hearing, so I also needed a sight indicator that my baby was awake (or sleeping peacefully). Well, I went to Target because there are no other stores that sell baby monitors in my area (we have a Super Wal-Mart/SWM, but they only had 2 monitors in store for sale, & they were not good quality). I bought this one because of the reviews, & was horribly disappointed at the terrible quality of it. It has some awesome features (rechargable batteries, 2 receivers, complete portability), but the fact that my baby has to be screaming at the top of her lungs & have purple in her face from doing so to get the monitor to light up, & the constant static are forcing me to return it promptly!!!!! Good thing I was extra aware & was waiting for my baby to wake up (so I knew when she was awake & wanted me) because she didn't have to rely on the lights to alert me to her being awake. After I picked her up, I asked my older child to go in the bedroom & talk to me... no lights! I told her to talk louder... NADA! Then I told her to yell... FINALLY it lit up!!!
I don't know about anyone else, but I don't want my baby to have to scream at the top of her lungs to let me know she needs me!!!!Read more ›

Port of Guam designation as a 'Strategic Port' brings brings access to additional funding for federal security & port infrastructure projects
The designation of 'Strategic Port brings with it many challenges not only for the US Coast Guard, but also for all those with a stake in port operations. For this reason each strategic port is mandated to form a Port Readiness Committee (PRC) which brings together representatives of the 10 federal agencies and local port stakeholders.
The PRC was established formally this past January when stakeholders met for the first time to begin dialogue on strategic concerns associated with facilitate both defense and commercial supplies through the same port. The committee is chaired by the captain of the port and includes more than 40 local, federal, and Department of Defense agencies.
Due to the designation, the Port of Guam will have access to additional funding for federal security and port infrastructure projects. Cargo volumes will also increase during periods of military deployment. Perhaps most valuable will be the interaction between the Coast Guard, the Port of Guam, DOD and other partners.
The first meeting of the port readiness committee in Guam involved representatives from the Coast Guard, DOD, Government of Guam, and multiple federal agencies and port stakeholders. During the daylong meeting, committee members discussed the effects of the new designation to include renovations to the port, types of outload activities, maritime security response capabilities, tactics, and other government agency support.
The list of 'Strategic Ports' includes 16 designated seaports that are of critical value to the nation & the Port of Guam is the latest additon.
To meet the requirement of the new designation Coast Guard Sector Guam is taking necessary steps with federal, state and local partners to usher in a new era of safety and security for the Port of Guam.

They are described in US. Pat. Nos. 2,725,286; 3,079,243; 3,454,385; 3,387,957; 3,637,360; and 3,679,383; Japanese published application 68-4595 (published Feb. 20, 1968) discloses sintered aluminous abrasive grits containing 4 to 34% zirconia and 0.5 tc 4.5% manganese oxide. German published application 1,908,475, published Nov. 13, 1969, discloses sintered abrasives made from alumina mixed with zirconia and with from 1 to of additives selected from the group of alkalin'e earth oxides and halides, chromium oxides, manganese oxides, cobalt oxides, and the halides of aluminum, manganese, cobalt, and chromium and mixtures thereof. Hungarian Patent 158576, published Oct. 30, 1971, although not relating to abrasives, discloses aluminous compositions containing alumina and zirconia with ceria, magnesia, and silica added. These compositions are sintered at temperatures above 1600C to form products such as electrical insulators.
Sintered alumina-zirconia has recently been commercialized for use in snagging wheels.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a sintered aluminous abrasive of higher impact strength and attrition resistance equivalent or superior to previously known sintered abrasives.
The abrasive of this invention is a sintered aluminous or alumina-zirconia material containing from 2 to 25% of cerium oxide.
Although compositions containing substantial amounts of zirconia, between 10 and 45%, are preferred, it has been found that ceria-alumina products show excellent grinding properties, not previously recognized in the art.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING The drawing is a ternary compositional diagram for the ceria, alumina, zirconia system, in which the area enclosed by the curve AEBC represents the compositions coming within the invention. The parallelogram DEBF represents the preferred limits of the invention.
Evaluation of abrasives for snagging grinding is a developing art. One measure of suitability of a particular abrasive is its friability. This property is measured by various different methods ranging from testing how easy it is to crush a given grit by hand between the jaws of a pair of pliers, to more sophisticated quantitative measures of the amount of break down which is achieved when a sample containing a large number of grits of the given material is subjected to attrition in a ball mill or by some other means. The method which we employ involves subjecting each grit particle in a large sample of grits of uniform size and shape to a single impact against a rapidly rotating steel paddle, and
subjecting the particles resulting from the impact to a screen size analysis. Extensive testing in this manner over long periods of time has shown that brittle materials such as abrasives, when impacted in this manner 2 break down in a manner described by the following equation:
in which R is the fraction by weight of the grain remain ing on a given screen having openings of the dimension x; x, is the effective initial size of the grains (before inpact), and k is a dimensionless number which can be considered representative of the number of flaws in the material being tested. The lower the value of k, the stronger the material. The impact test method is discussed in Single Impact Testing of Brittle Materials by Karpinski and Tervo, at pages 126 to 130 of the June 1965 issue of Transactions of the Society of Mining Engineers. f
In performing a determination of k value a test sample is prepared from. the crude abrasive by crushing and screening. The test sample comprises the part of the crushed abrasive that is retained between two specified adjacent screens in the Tyler series, after screening for one-half hour with a Tyler Ro-Tap sieve shaker'(available from W. S. Tyler Co., Cleveland, Ohio). The sample weight is chosen to provide about 10,000 individual abrasive grits. For 14 grit, typically used for impact testing, a gram sample is adequate.
The grains are dropped essentially one at a time, into an evacuated chamber (e.g. 2 mm Hg), in which they are struck in direct central impact by a mild steel vane that is moving at a predetermined velocity. The grain is driven by the impact into a collecting pot. Secondary impact is minimized by lining all the adjacent metal surfaces with gasket rubber.
The grain that has been collected in the pot is then screened for one-half hour on a nest of Tyler screens (adjacent sizes) in a Ro-Tap shaker to determine the post-impact size distribution in terms of weight of grain on each screen and on the pan. In the determinations of k referred to herein, the paddle center was 12 inches radially from the center of rotation, and its speed was 2000 revolutions per minute, corresponding to a speed of 209 feet per second.
In an actual determination of a k value, typically four screens would be used with a pan beneath them in the Ro-Tap machine. The first screen (arbitrarily denominated the 0 screen) is the screen upon which the test material was retained in the sizing operation. The succeeding screens, denominated 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. are each smaller than the preceding screen by the factor 1.189 (the fourth root of 2), in the Tyler screen system. This fact can be used to simplify calculations by preparing tables of values of the reciprocal of the logarithm of arbitrarily selected and from R for each screen, k is calculated from the formula:
log R k= log (I w M KPV W (1) This equation represents the relationship, between wheel wear rate W, in cubic inches per hour, and mate rial removal rate, M, in pounds per hour, where P is the vertical force in pounds on the grinding wheel, V is the surface speed of the wheel in feet per minute, K is a constant which represents the grindability of the metal being ground, and a is the before mentioned destructability factor having the units of cubic inches per hour. The equation represents the optimum metal removal rate for an abrasive of given value of a for fixed pressure and wheel speed, at any given wheel wear rate W. In grinding tests it is convenient to calculate PV/M and l/W from measurements of M and W. When plotted with PV/M on the Y axis and l/W on the X axis, the result is a straight line passing through UK on the Y axis and whose slope is a/K. The K values for test metals may be known from previous tests or may be determined by obtaining grinding results for a given wheel with a known a value or by measuring metal removal at more than one wheel wear rate (by varying speed, pressure, or hardness of the wheel bond) so that at least two points are determined to fix the straight line on the plot of PV/M vs. l/W.
In the particular English and engineering units employed, the dimensions of the constant K are: 60 pounds per foot pound. Obviously any consistent units having consistent dimensions can be employed, in such case the numerical values of K and a will of course be different from those employed herein. A theoretical discussion and derivation of equation l is given in the book: Abrasives, by Loring Coes, .Ir. published in 1971 by Springer-Verlag, Vienna and New York. In essence the equation states that the rate of metal removal is directly proportional to the energy applied to the wheel (PV) if there is no wear of the abrasive (a That is for the perfect abrasive, M KPV. Since the value of a is always some number larger than zero, the metal removal rate will, in fact, not be equal to KPV but will be reduced by an efficiency factor equal to W/(W a). Thus, the smaller the value of a the better potentially is the abrasive. The rate of metal removal given by equation (1) is that achieved when the abrasive is used at its optimum efficiency. If the bond is too soft or the abrasive too weak for the given grinding conditions, the metal removal rate will be less than that 4 predicted by equation (1), and the abrasive will not perform at its true potential.
For example, an abrasive grit may fracture during grinding in such a way that it is not effectively utilized in the wheel. This may be because the abrasive is inherently too weak or is inadequately bonded for the particular grinding conditions, or it may be too splintery. That is, it may be of too weak a shape for the particular bond employed in the wheel.
Thus the inherent strength of the abrasive is an important property, which influences, along with the properties of the wheel bond and the destructability factor a, the wear rate (and the cutting rate) of a grinding wheel under a given set of grinding conditions. The dimensionless k value, or impact strength, described above (not to be confused with the grindability, K, of a metal) is a measure of the strength of the abrasive grit. The particular value of k for any given abrasive is dependent both upon the inherent strength of the material in resisting impact fracture, and the shape of the grit.
From the above it can be seen that for heavy duty grinding, such as snagging, where high speeds and forces are applied, the measureable properties of the abrasive which are important to performance are impact strength, k, and destructability factor, a. As pointed out by Coes, low destructability factors (a values) are correlateable to high melting points for certain classes of abrasives.
The abrasives of the present invention are a class of sintered abrasive grits of novel composition, high strength, and low a value, particularly suitable for use in organic bonded grinding wheels for heavy duty grinding, such as the snagging of steel billets.
The broadest compositional range of the sintered abrasive of this invention is bounded by the curve AEBC on the accompanying ternary composition diagram. The preferred composition for the abrasives of this invention is indicated by the area enclosed by the parallelogram DEBF. Although high purity raw materials are preferred, materials of over 98% purity are expensive. Up to 5%, total, by weight of impurities or sintering aids, such as oxides of iron, silicon, titanium, magnesium, calcium, chromium, cobalt, vanadium, nickel, and manganese can be tolerated or even preferred in the abrasive composition.
The preparation of the abrasive grits involves (l) mixing the raw materials, (2) forming the mixture into abrasive grit sized particles or shapes, and (3) drying and firing the preformed shaped grits.
The raw materials should be well mixed and in a finely divided condition, the particles of aluminum oxide, cerium oxide and zirconium oxide being between 0.5 and 10 microns in size or finer and should be 4 microns or finer in average size. The firing operation should not cause crystal growth above 5 microns, average size.
The patent literature cited above suggests several different forming methods which can be used with the compositions of this invention such as pressing into bricks which are then granulated into abrasive sized particles, extrusion, pouring into thin layers which are dried and then broken-up, molding etc. I prefer to prepare slurries containing deflocculents for use in casting into molds of the desired size, without any need for pressing, as when drier mixes are used. Suitable deflocculents are ferric ammonium citrate, disclosed in Ueltz Pat. 2,637,360, or commercial deflocculents such as Darvan C or 7, sold by the R. T. Vanderbilt Company, New York.
Firing can be' at temperatures of from 1350 to 1600C, for from 1 to.24hours. 1
The fired abrasive grain can be employed in resin bonded grinding wheels adapted for rotation at high surface speeds and high pressures.
EXAMPLES OF SPECIFIC EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION The starting materials in this example were ball milled Bayer process alumina (Alcoa A-14), I-larshaw E220 zirconia, and Molycorp No. 535 cerium oxide. These powders, in the proportions, by weight, of 71.25% alumina, 23.75% zirconia, and 5.0% CeO were dry mixed for one hour on a roll mixer, then wet milled in a vibratory mill until an average particle size between 2 and 3 microns was attained. The resultant slurry was then oven dried at approximately 95C. The dried material was reduced to a powder by gentle rolling with a metal roller. The powder was pressed into cakes 3 inches in diameter using a pressure of 12 tons per square inch. No binder was present in the sample other than that water not removed during the drying cycle. The pressed cakes were passed through a Stokes granulator. This granulated material was passed through 8 and 10 mesh screens. The green grain was tumbled in a fibre drum on a roll mixer in order to provide strong shaped grain using the following procedure. The +8 fraction of newly granulated material was tumbled for 5 to minutes then resieved. Any +8 fraction remaining was hand passed through the 8 mesh screen. The entire +10 mesh fraction was then tumbled for ten minutes and resieved. The +10 fraction was then fired using a hot rod kiln to 1580C in air with a hold time of 2 hours at this temperature. The fired grain was then separated into a strong shaped fraction and a weak shaped fraction using a Sutton table. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated the following crystalline phases were present: alpha aluminum oxide, tetragonal zirconiaceria solid solution; monoclinic Zirconia; cerium zirconate (Ce Zr O the latter in barely detectable trace amounts.
Values of k were determined using approximately 100 gm of material and speed of 2000 rpm (209 feet per second). The strong shaped fraction produced a k value of 0.013, the weak shaped fraction a value of 0.050.
Another example is as follows:
Composition (same starting materials) This sample was treated in a manner identical to that previously cited. No monoclinic zirconium oxide was detected in the fired grain by X-ray diffraction. Value of k obtained for the strong and weak shaped fractions of this sample were 0.046 and 0.107 respectively.
We have found that abrasives made with the proportions of zirconia, alumina and ceria, within the area ABCD in the ternary diagram have k values (at 209 feet per second impact speed, and in 8 to grit sizes) of 0.2 or less to as low as 0.01, and a values lower than those obtained for sintered bauxite abrasive.
Instead of pressing and granulating the powder mixes we have found that molded to shape grains can be made by casting a slurry of the milled powders, with a deflocculent added to make a high solids but pourable mix, into molds of the desired grain shape. A convenient method for doing this is to use a perforated metal sheet clamped to a plaster of paris plate. The perforations are of the desired shape, and the plate of such thickness as to provide the desired geometry and size in the fired grit.
Illustrative of the mold casting method the following mix was prepared:
Calcined Bayer process alumina (Alcoa A-14) 89 pounds ZrO powder 29.7 pounds Ceria powder 62 pounds The Zirconia employed had a typical analysis of 98.6% Zirconia plus hafnia, (about 3% hafnia) with the remainder being less than 1% each of lime, silica, titania, iron, and alumina. The mixed dry powders are reduced in particle size by wet or dry milling to an average size of 2 to 4 microns. A slurry is prepared by adding 200 parts of water and 25 parts of a commercial deflocculent (Darvan C, sold by R. T. Vanderbilt Co., New York) to each 850 parts of the dry powder mix. To reduce porosity in the molded products it is desireable to remove any air bubbles from the slurry by vacuum mixing or by straining or sieving the slurry.
The slurry is then poured into molds, corresponding to individual abrasive grits, dried, the grits then being removed from the molds and fired. Firing may take place at l350C for a long period such as 24 hours, or at 1580C for 1 to 2 hours, or at some intermediate temperature for an intermediate time. Products made according to this invention have been fired in air in an electrically heated kiln, and have been fired in a gas kiln having an oxidizing atmosphere. The average crys tal size in the fired product should be less than 5 microns.
Measurements of k values of products of this invention, in the 8 to 12 grit range have shown the abrasive to have extremely high impact strength, comparing favorably with and commonly exceeding fused abrasives of high strength and with other sintered abrasives. Grinding tests on stainless steel and carbon steels have shown the material to have a lower destructability factor (a value) than commercially available sintered abrasive materials.
What is claimed is:
l. A grinding wheel containing bonded abrasive grits which grits are produced by sintering of formed to size particles, said grinding wheel being adapted for rough grinding application such as snag grinding of stainless steel characterized in that the individual abrasive grits have a composition including alumina, ceria, and zirconia in the compositional amounts represented within the area defined by the boundary AEBC in the accompanying ternary composition diagram, the alumina, zirconia, and ceria amounting to at least weight of the composition.
2. A grinding wheel as in claim 1 containing abrasive grits in which the compositional amounts of zirconia, alumina, and ceria are included within the boundary DEBF in the accompanying ternary composition drawing.
3. A grinding wheel as in claim 1 in which the individual grits contain, in addition to alumina, Zirconia and manganese, vanadium, chromium, nickel, and cobalt.
abrasive 4. A grindinghwheel as in claim 1 containin 5 an migrits in which e average crystal size is less crons.
5. A grinding wheel as in claim 1 containing abrasive grit having an impact strength, k at 209 feet per second of less than 0.2 m the 8 gr t sige.

Proposed medical park's developer short on cash
Published: Thursday, September 27, 2007 at 11:52 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, September 27, 2007 at 12:02 p.m.
NAPOLEONVILLE -- Red Reef Laboratories, from its 3,000-square-foot office building in southeastern Florida, announced plans last month to develop a $1 billion cystic-fibrosis research center in Napoleonville despite one problem: It doesnt have enough money.
Though Red Reefs founder and spokesman says he is confident the Deerfield Beach, Fla.-based company will find the money, he has yet to pinpoint where. As a result, speculation among locals about what Red Reef will eventually build in Napoleonville has become a topic of curiosity and apprehension.
The companys changing plans and vague public statements about the Napoleonville project have intensified that concern.
Red Reefs Web site claims the company is a "scientific research, development and marketing group established to assemble, develop, commercialize and bring to market a variety of chemical and biological products, utilizing advanced surfactant technology and increasingly ëgreen compounds."
Its Web site neither mentions medical research nor cystic-fibrosis research, the companys claimed intent for the Napoleonville plot.
Red Reef lists four employees in its May 23 filing to the federal Securities and Exchange Commission, each with a salary of $16,250 per year. They include Vice President Peter Versace, Director John Spargo, Chief Operating Officer Nathan Evans and Chairman Claus Wagner-Bartak, the latter of whom has a documented track record of success in the business world.
The company recently hired former Assumption Parish state Rep. Harry "Soup" Kember, who sold the Napoleonville property for $2,000 in Red Reef stock and transferred a $421,625 debt to Red Reef in the sale, according to records filed in the Assumption Parish Clerk of Courts Office.
"Hes got a lot of debt," said Warren Gonzales, a resident southwest of the property. "Thats one reason everybody was concerned when he said they were going to do this big, substantial development."
Guido Volante, who formed the company Oct. 1, 2002, stood as a founder and its senior vice president until the company opened its stock to public trading Oct. 18, 2006, when he became an outside investor and chief consultant for the company. A 1997 court decision bars him from officially representing public companies like Red Reef.
In his current role with Red Reef, he recommends business endeavors that are generally accepted, he said, and speaks on behalf of the company as its representative.
In a lawsuit filed Sept. 16, 1997, in the U.S. District Court in Miami, Fla., involving alleged stock-trading and bookkeeping violations by Volante, he signed court papers allowing him to neither admit nor deny guilt. As a result, the court barred Volante from ever acting as a director or officer of a company that issues stock, as Red Reef does.
The SEC alleged in the complaint, involving one of Volantes former companies, Century Technologies, that Volante conducted "fraudulent representations related to Centurys purported ownership of certain feature films as assets on its balance sheet which resulted in the overstatement of the value of the companys total assets by as much as 90 percent." Red Reef "failed to maintain books and records which accurately reflected its financial condition and made misrepresentations to its auditors," the complaint says.
The suit also claims Volante "filed false and misleading periodic reports, press releases and other public communications."
"I was never convicted of anything," Volante said when questioned about the lawsuits. "I simply signed the consent agreement because I ran out of funds. I felt in my heart that I owed it to myself to fight them."
Century Technologies owed its shareholders $345,000, according to its most-recent financial statement to the SEC, filed Sept. 30, 1996, when Volante claims he sold the business to a film company for about $300,000. It folded six months later.
A background check of Volante through Accurint, a LexisNexis database of records on individuals and businesses, reveals two bankruptcies stemming from Volantes past business ventures and two tax liens -- outstanding tax money owed to the government -- that he downplays as errors on the part of others.
"Those tax liens were there basically because I disputed a tax bill. Theyve been resolved; everything is paid and adjudicated, but they still show up for some reason," Volante said. "The two bankruptcies I filed, but I withdrew them."
Though Volante formed Red Reef less than five years ago, he said it has created products such as a technology that can kill anthrax spores with better results of any other similar chemical in existence and a biochemical that can fight Asian bird flu. All of this, he said, was created by a chemist operating out of no more than 3,000 square feet of office space in Deerfield Beach, Fla.
"You dont need a lot of room to make chemistry," Volante said. "We like results. Were not in show business."
Red Reef began in 2002 as GSC Global and underwent a name change Jan. 10, 2005, according to the Florida Secretary of States Office. The change followed a civil lawsuit filed June 17, 2004, in San Diego Superior Court against Red Reef that the company settled out of court for $35,000.
The plaintiff, Global Bio Solutions, alleged that Red Reef "induced breach of contract against Global Bio Solutions, interfered with a prospective economic advantage (and) conducted unfair business practices against the company," according to a San Diego Supreme Court Operations Clerk.
Global Bio Solutions "provides regulatory and product-development advice and assistance to biotech companies, investigators and researchers developing bio-pharmaceutical products," according to its Web site.
Red Reef claims to manufacture five industrial-strength cleaning products for mold and bacteria removal, but only one of those is available for sale, a sodium hydrochloride-based mold remover called BioClear TKO.
The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel in Hollywood, Fla., is the companys only current purchaser that product, Volante said. Julianne Carelli, public-relations and advertising manager at the hotel, confirmed that the Hard Rock uses the product regularly to clean public outdoor areas.
Red Reef ushers in most of its income from cleaning services in Florida homes, Volante said, and not the sale of its products. He asked that one homeowner who uses the companyës cleaning services be left off the record and declined to specify the others, saying he wanted to protect the interest of his clients.
The company also sells soap to Ditech, a paint-restoration company with five service centers in Florida, he said.
In Red Reefs most-recent financial statement to the SEC, from Sept. 30, 2006, to March 31, the company earned $444,197 in services and $5,000 in products and reported a net loss of $117,380.
Volante personally vouches for the companys financial health, but records on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission paint a different picture.
The companys net loss over the past two years was more than $2.5 million. Over those same years, the company earned less than $100,000, SEC records show.
In 2005 and 2006, Red Reefs total assets were slightly more than $700,000. Nearly $650,000 of that came from loans and advances to stockholders, according to its May 23 balance sheet and statement of operations filed to the SEC.
Its total debt jumped from $438,044 in 2005 to $1.8 million in 2006. Part of the rise came from $1.2 million in "accrued consulting services to be paid in stock," SEC records show.
Volante, himself a consultant for Red Reef, could not explain who received that money.
"Weve paid consultants with stock from time to time but nothing like $1.2 million. The only thing I can think is our law firm in Baton Rouge and Jackson, but their fees are nowhere near that either," he said.
Red Reef opened at 45 cents per share on the Over the Counter Exchange of India under the ticket symbol RRLB.PK on Oct. 18, 2006. It rose five days later to a $2.25 peak and plummeted to 1 cent by Feb. 14, 2007, where it has remained for months.
The company has nearly 906 million shares publicly available, a potential total of $9.06 million if it sold all its shares at the current value -- but Volante acknowledged Red Reef is not worth that amount.
"We dont spend a lot of time worrying about the price of the stock. Its not a good idea," he said. "For new companies, thats not really an issue. Its not really a measure of the companys future."
Volante denied that Red Reefs lack of money would affect its plan for the Napoleonville property.
"Nobody comes into these projects and puts that kind of money on the table," he said. "Were telling everybody we dont have the money. This is us. But why would we do that if we didnt think we had a strategy for success? We wanted people to know we do everything palm up. We believe in full disclosure."

A senior director of a canal boat company has today been ordered to pay £3,600 in fines and costs after pleading guilty to operating passenger vessels in North Yorkshire without valid passenger certificates. Ian Clarke, and the company Pennine Cruisers Ltd, pleaded guilty to four charges.
anal boats 'Sam' and 'Leo' operate on a section of the Leeds to Liverpool canal at Skipton and are authorised to carry no more than 12 passengers. Carrying more than 12 passengers would require the vessels to be surveyed and issued with passenger certificates if they met the required safety standards.
On 31 July 2013 a Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) surveyor saw 'Leo' being operated with 13 passengers on board and the company was spoken to. 'Sam' was filmed operating with 13 passengers on board on 2 August 2013 while under the control of Mr Clarke.
These incidents occurred after the company had received several warnings from the MCA about carrying excess passengers.
When interviewed, Mr Clarke admitted the vessels had been used without the appropriate certificates. He also admitted this was after the company had been warned against it. He was sorry for the situation, which he said was not done deliberately.
In sentencing today at Skipton Magistrates' Court, Mr Clarke's full cooperation with the MCA as well as his early guilty plea was taken into account.
However, in summing up, the magistrate said:
"You run a business carrying members of the public. You have exceeded your certificate and put the public at risk."
MCA surveyor Adam Jackson said:
"Commercially operated vessels must be authorized to carry the number of passengers they are found to be carrying. Where necessary, this would be following a survey to ensure the vessels are suitable and have the necessary safety equipment on board – as would be required in this case.
Operators have a duty to their passengers to ensure they run safe vessels that have a valid passenger certificate."

Product Information
- Product InformationIn the spirit of the title's late-1990s classics, the 2010 PlayStation 3 edition of Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit revolves around high-speed car chases through winding countryside highways and bustling village streets, giving players license to drive as both escaping speedsters and pursuing police. The game is played in the large, open-world of fictional Seacrest County, which features coastal, desert, forest, and mountain regions for diverse driving challenges. The high-def-console and home computer versions of Need for Speed use an "Autolog" feature, which can connect in the background to allow for online multiplayer racing, and which also gives single-player racers the opportunity to compare in-game accomplishments and statistics with friends across the network.
In the game's main "Career" mode, virtual drivers have the chance to roll as both racers and law enforcement officers, gradually developing a reputation, gaining "Bounty" points, and unlocking additional challenges and high-performance automobiles. Players can also earn and use special weapons and equipment to help them in their pursuits. The high-def versions of Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit are developed by Criterion Studios, creator of the popular Burnout series of road-racing games.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is a 2010 racing video game developed by Britis
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is a 2010 racing video game developed by British games developer Criterion Games and published by Electronic Arts for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Microsoft Windows, Wii, iOS, Android, webOS and Windows Phone. The Wii version was developed by Exient Entertainment. Hot Pursuit is the sixteenth Need for Speed title and was released in November 2010, with digital download versions released within December 2010.
Hot Pursuit's gameplay is set in the fictional Seacrest County, in which players can compete in several types of races. Players can also compete online (except in the Wii version), which includes additional game modes such as Hot Pursuit, Interceptor and Race. The game features a new social interaction system called "Autolog", which is a network that connects friends for head-to-head races and compares player stats for competition. The game also features paid downloadable content in the form of new cars, new race and pursuit events, and new trophies/achievements. As of 07/30/2012, the Web Dashboard for Autolog was shutdown for all games except Need for Speed: Most WantedRead full review

Hot Pursuit gets a 'good' rating from an accomplished gamer (and his sons)
My sons love this game. They are a bit too young to drive at the level necessary so I am the 'adult gamer'. I actually purchased 'The Run' prior to buying Hot Pursuit and they are similar as far as the driving goes. Watch out for spike strips from the back of competing cars as well as EMP. You won't get this from 'The Run' - Help slow down the super fast 'racers' by calling for road block or heli (not on all races) - sometimes you just have to use raw ramming power.
If you like running from the cops or trying to take down racers while being a cop this game gives you that feeling.

NFS NO A Burnout Game With NFS Name and Cars Yes
This is not a need for speed game that fans are used to, but if your a fan of Burnout then it's alot like those games, The cars are Need for Speed and the tracks but not the controls nor the gameplay are NFS they are totally burnout, but if you like the burnout games and you want some cars and police that's typically what you would find in a Need for Speed game then you'll like this game, but if your a NFS Underground, NFS Most Wanted, NFS Shift, type of person then you will be big time disappointed. But overall I would give the game 3 1/2 stars since I'm a fan of the Burnout series and NFS series, but the game could have been way better there's no two player except online that and that sucks big time I miss the Most Wanted type of game play and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit gameplay from the PS2 they were in my opinion the best NFS games but this game is the best NFS on the PS3 so far in my opinion, maybe the NFS Shift 2 will be much improved from the old one.Read full review

Off we go, as the Bruins and Flyers match up in the second round of the NHL playoffs. The Flyers are here after an improbable 5-game whooping of Ilya Kovalchuk and the New Jersey Devils, while the B's were able to get past Ryan Miller and the Buffalo Sabres in 6 games in order to advance to their second straight Eastern Conference semifinals.
Boston and Philadelphia have always been notorious for their physical styles of play, which should make for a downright dirty, but entirely entertaining series.
Let's dive in and get a closer look at what to expect from this series…

is still very sexy even at her age. She got divorced long ago and George is the
only her son. He just turned 18. They are great friends even though many teenagers
at his age have problems with parents. The only thing that bothered him in his
relations with mothers is that she was extremely jealous to his girlfriends. He
couldn�t understand why till one night she came to his bedroom is short robe to
talk about it. As you may see their conversation ended with really wild and messy
Amanda�s sons grew up it was very painful for her to watch them having fun at
parties and clubs and dating young girls. She did her best to stay # 1 for them.
Sons often joked that she�s she only woman in the world they will ever love. Once
they had pretty frank conversation about sex and Amanda said desperately she�s
not able to explain everything they ask her about but she�s able to show! That
was nasty but her sons took her right. It was their first incest experience so
they recorded it on video.
grew up without mother. She died when Helen was a just small kid. Her father Artur
took care of her, protected and cherished her. Sure, for Helen loved him not like
a father but like a man. But she couldn�t confessed herself in it till the day
he kissed her lips while she was sleeping. She woke up and finally realized how
happy she is. She never enjoyed sex with guys from her college as much as she
enjoyed it with Artur. She got her cunt eaten out as never before and then stuffed
with her father�s strong cock.

Waving posters and chanting "Free D.C.," a crowd calling for the government to reopen on the Capitol's East Front tried to interrupt a Senate Democratic news conference Wednesday.
Thirty-five Democratic lawmakers stood on the Capitol's steps and reiterated their now-familiar demands to Republicans. While some of the protesters interviewed said they blamed the GOP, and not Democrats, the scene made for an awkward juxtaposition.
At one point, D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray walked slowly from the site of the protest at the area known as the Senate Swamp, toward the senators. There was a brief moment of tension, because it was unclear what Gray would say or whether he intended to interrupt, but Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., smiled at Gray, stretched out his hand, and welcomed him onto the steps.
Leroy Thorpe, a Northwest resident and government social worker who's lived in Washington since 1980, said he wants to see Congress reopen the government immediately. Others near him nodded in assent. "I think we need to stop the gridlock," he said. "I think the Republicans are holding the nation hostage and hurting a lot of people."
Democrats took the opportunity to reject the House's so-called mini-continuing resolutions and asked for their colleagues to adopt their CR.
"The whole government needs to be open," said Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va.
The district's sole representative in Congress also addressed the crowd of protesters, telling them that if they wanted to speak to lawmakers, they should enter the Capitol or office buildings. "I don't think I need to tell you all what you need from senators," Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton of the District of Columbia told the protesters. "Out here we're talking to ourselves, but if they hear directly from you, that makes some difference."
What We're Following See More »
Instead of his usual stump speech, Bernie Sanders tonight threw his support behind Hillary Clinton, providing a clear contrast between Clinton and GOP nominee Donald Trump on the many issues he used to discuss in his campaign stump speeches. Sanders spoke glowingly about the presumptive Democratic nominee, lauding her work as first lady and as a strong advocate for women and the poor. "We need leadership in this country which will improve the lives of working families, the children, the elderly, the sick and the poor," he said. "Hillary Clinton will make a great president, and I am proud to stand with her tonight."
In a stark contrast from Michelle Obama's uplifting speech, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren spoke about the rigged system plaguing Americans before launching into a full-throated rebuke of GOP nominee Donald Trump. Trump is "a man who has never sacrificed anything for anyone," she claimed, before saying he "must never be president of the United States." She called him divisive and selfish, and said the American people won't accept his "hate-filled America." In addition to Trump, Warren went after the Republican Party as a whole. "To Republicans in Congress who said no, this November the American people are coming for you," she said.
"In this election, and every election, it's about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives," Michelle Obama said. "There is only one person who I trust with that responsibility … and that is our friend Hillary Clinton." In a personal and emotional speech, Michelle Obama spoke about the effect that angry oppositional rhetoric had on her children and how she chose to raise them. "When they go low, we go high," Obama said she told her children about dealing with bullies. Obama stayed mostly positive, but still offered a firm rebuke of Donald Trump, despite never once uttering his name. "The issues a president faces cannot be boiled down to 140 characters," she said.
Many Bernie Sanders delegates have spent much of the first day of the Democratic National Convention resisting unity, booing at mentions of Hillary Clinton and often chanting "Bernie! Bernie!" Well, one of the most outspoken Bernie Sanders supporters just told them to take a seat. "To the Bernie-or-bust people: You're being ridiculous," said comedian Sarah Silverman in a brief appearance at the Convention, minutes after saying that she would proudly support Hillary Clinton for president.
The Democratic National Committee issued a formal apology to Bernie Sanders today, after leaked emails showed staffers trying to sabotage his presidential bid. "On behalf of everyone at the DNC, we want to offer a deep and sincere apology to Senator Sanders, his supporters, and the entire Democratic Party for the inexcusable remarks made over email," DNC officials said in the statement. "These comments do not reflect the values of the DNC or our steadfast commitment to neutrality during the nominating process. The DNC does not—and will not—tolerate disrespectful language exhibited toward our candidates."
