Company Info
At NFP, we have built our company with the very finest agents, brokers and customer service representatives in the business. Our people have extensive career experience with large, national brokerage firms and insurance companies including Marsh, Willis, AON and Wausau/Liberty Mutual Insurance. Our foundation has resulted in a knowledge of the business that is unsurpassed in the industry.
Our experience makes our company competitive with even the largest national firms. What makes us unique, though, is our commitment to the community we serve. As a locally- owned insurance brokerage, we are invested in the State and entrenched in the community; so much so that we recently built our own 11,000 square foot facility to provide the space for our planned growth. But the real difference at NFP is our full-service approach to our clients' needs. There is no account too small, no need too minor, no request too tedious.
Our clients count on us to negotiate terms and reduce insurance costs, manage claims and simplify the process. We make it our priority to deliver that and more. For instance, our staff includes Risk Control Safety Engineers who, along with our Claims Management Task Force, work with our clients to make sure they are taking every step possible to reduce claim exposure and expense.
"We have been working with Lapre Scali & Company for a
number of years and have found that their service, integrity
and commitment to client satisfaction is unmatched in the
insurance industry. We would highly recommend Lapre Scali
& Company."
"Cassandra Craig has been providing our Workmans comp, GL,
Auto, Inland Marine, Employee Health, and flood insurance
for over 10 years. As a highly specialized contractor working
in 11 states with around 150 contracts a year, Judge Netting
has required exceptional attention to detail meeting the
myraid insurance requirements of our private and government
customers. Cassandra and her staff have promptly responded to
our ever changing needs by providing excellent customer service
and placing us with the most competitive underwriters. I can say
without equivocation that Cassandra Craig and Lapre Scali have
been instrumental in our growth and continued success!"
"We have enjoyed a professional relationship with Rick
Stephens at AJS Insurance Services, a division of Lapre Scali
& Company Insurance, LLC, for nearly 20 years. Rick and
his team of specialists have always been able to meet our
unique insurance needs. No matter how complicated the risk
management problem has been, AJS Insurance has been able
to find a competitive solution. While the banking industry
continues to change, Rick Stephens and AJS Insurance Services
have been right there to help us navigate a successful course."
"I am delighted to say that moving my insurance program to
Lapre Scali & Company was the best choice I could have made.
I am more than happy with the level of service my company
enjoys and would not hesitate to recommend their services to
any size company. Lapre Scali & Company goes the extra mile
for their clients and I'm proud to say they are my brokers."
"Recently, our company sought insurance quotes for our
property and casualty insurance. Like all businesses, we take
pride in reducing cost to our clients. With this in mind we
sought quotes from local reputable companies. I had heard
that once you did this, one company would "lock the insurance
markets". That is what happened, limiting us from obtaining
competitive quotes . . . The Construction Practice...came to us
10 days before our policy renewal. They explained to me that
blocking markets was not to my advantage and if I would give
them just one market, they would supply me with the insurance
quote we desired. I would like to say we had a relationship
with our broker and felt it was strong. However, when . . .
The construction Practice, brought to us a quote . . . and it was
half of what one broker quoted, I must say it got my attention
. . . I appreciate The Construction Practice's . . . honesty, hard
work and ability to determine my needs. They are not high
pressure and as a team they work seamlessly to deal with the
challenges that we have in keeping our costs manageable.
Now I understand not all brokers are the same and I see the
need of having a construction specialist working for us. I
would recommend . . . The Construction Practice."
"At Lapre Scali & Company, we have built our reputation by
providing real service. Our clients' needs are always first - and
no request is too large or too small."
"Being a general contractor working in Arizona, New Mexico,
California and Nevada we need an insurance and bonding
company who could provide expertise and knowledge of not
only local but multi-state laws and coverage. We turned to
AJS Insurance Services (a division of Lapre Scali) in 1989 and
have been working with them ever since.

1848: James Marshall discovers gold at Sutter's Creek and within a year the California gold rush is on. By the time things peter out in 1855, more than 300,000 people have arrived from all over the world to seek their fortunes.
While the gold rush made millionaires out of some, most prospectors did not strike it rich. Some returned home with little more than they had arrived with, and others stayed on to make a new life in California. The luckiest ones were those who arrived early in the rush, when gold was highly concentrated and easily recovered by simple panning.
As the gold supply began to dwindle, new methods evolved for recovery. Prospectors learned how to divert water to expose the river bed for exploration. Hydraulic mining was in use by 1853 and "hard rock" mining — extracting gold from rock by digging and blasting with dynamite — continued well after the rush had ended.
According to U.S. Geological Survey figures, roughly 12 million ounces of gold (373 tons) were removed during the first five years of the gold rush. With the introduction of more sophisticated (and more ecologically invasive) mining techniques, that number continued climbing well into the 20th century.

Jimmie, your photos continue to be fantastic!!! And, Donna, I love your wonderful narratives, too!!!
The Architecture and Allergies of Arequipa
Loading Map
Read my review - 5/5 stars
At 6:00am we went down the street to La Casa de Melgar. This was the house of the bishop of Arequipa at the end of the 19th century. The vaulted ceilings, multiple courtyards, art and antiques are a perfect photographer's haven. So while I slept all day, Jim just hung around taking pictures. I guess in some ways we both had a day of healing. This place was one of the 4 best places we stayed at in all of Ecuador and Peru! It is a real gem.
Unfortunately, we were in Arequipa for only 2 days so missed seeing a lot of the beautiful sites in the city. We wandered around the city on day 2 taking in the convent, a church here and there and some alpaca wool shops. We caught an uneventful flight (which is the kind of flight one wants to have) to Lima. We are heading home for a couple of weeks and this begins that journey homeward.
Post your own travel photos for friends and family More Pictures

Thanks for sharing the wonders of Peru and Ecuador with us. I will miss following you the next couple of weeks but will look forward to the next leg of your great adventures.
Just home from my own journeying - to Niagara to visit family. Chose the perfect week, full of Ontario colour, unseasonably warm and sunny and now they batten down the hatches for this newest hurricane, Sandy. Safe travels home. Have so enjoyed your first "act"...truly beautiful.
Hope you enjoy your time at home. We are just settling in to our new home in Washougal WA. The 2300 mile trip with three cats and two dogs was interesting! My sister was along to help herd the livestock. I'm looking at so many boxes that need to be unpacked. I'm determined to finish unpacking my boxes tonight so I can officially begin work tomorrow from my home office. Miss talking with you!

Get ready to know a truth that will change your view towards language learning.
Nothing is impossible
Maybe you will have to try 3, 8 or 20 times, but if you give up when you're at the 2nd, the 7th or the 19th, you'll never enjoy success. Don't see your mistakes as failures. They are opportunities for you to see what's that you're NOT suppossed to do. Keep searching.
If someone is able to speak it, even if it's half-way around the world, then it means you're able to speak it, too.
Because you being able to read this means you've learned English, which means that your brain and the organs required for language and language learning work perfectly.
Just keep trying until you enjoy the fruits of your effort. Otherwise, You would be making something impossible out of language learning. I have shown you that everything is possible. Now go and show it to yourself.

Ripoff Report
pay day loans707 N. 14st Street Leeburg, Florida USA
pay day loans Mark Chapman approved for 2,000 loan, paid them $620 and have not recvied one red cent. Leeburg Florida
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
In April, 2013 I applied for and was approved for a $2,000 loan. I trusted the company when they said I had to pay the first installment of $171. Then they told me I had to pay $299 for tax purposes. Having never done a online loan, I trusted them again. Then they guaranteed me !!0% if I paid an additional $150 the loan would be deposited into my checking account. It wasn't. Now they tell me I have to pay an additional $200 and then the loan will be released. I refused, told them to cancel the loan application and refun the $620 I have already paid. All correspondance has been handled on the phone, nothing in writing or even an email. I was not told my money was non-refundable. I have my Western Union receipts for each time I wired them money. This company is nothing but a fraud, preying on people like me on a fixed income. I don't know what I am going to do the rest of the month. I have $10 to my name. Please help me get my money back. I hope this company is put out of business as soon as they return all others they have fraud. Jane McEwen, Tennessee

Talley Sue Hohlfeld, Etiquette Expert, has a great post on The Bride's Guide today about flower girls. I have always loved the idea of having children involved with the wedding. They seem to add an air of innocence to the day. However, for many brides, the flower girls can also be a source of anxiety! Will she make it down the aisle? Will she drop the petals?
Well, a new book, One Little Flower Girl by Jennifer Dussling, could be the perfect gift (and instruction manual) for your flower girl!
The book even comes with practice flower petals!
Are you doing anything special for your flower girl?

And if your bridal shower's a surprise, this can be very confusing!
A bunch of your bridal shower guests will buy off your wedding registry virtually moments after their invitations arrive. If you didn't go hog wild while making your wedding registry (I certainly didn't), it might be almost completely bare a few days after invites are mailed.
Why? Bridal shower guests don't want to get stuck buying you the only gift in their price range that's left on the wedding registry, so they get shopping fast. Now that I've been a bridal shower (and baby shower) guest many times over, I do this. One time I was on vacation when the shower invitation arrived, so I had no choice but to buy a collection of random cooking utensils, from a pizza slicer to an apple corer, since all the nice-yet-affordable appliances were snatched up already.
When this happened to me as a bride, though, I decided to add more items to our wedding gift registry. At that point in the engagement, I was worried that I'd run out of wedding presents, so I added a ton of little things I didn't really need, like an over-the-kitchen-sink organizer and some more Tupperware. And you know what? There was a big lull in wedding registry activity for a while. (Yes, I loved checking my wedding registry nearly every day. Try it. It's fun.)
But then, literally the day before my bridal shower, those new gifts disappeared off my wedding registry. It was really funny to learn who the procrastinators were as I opened those gifts at the party!
Do you like to buy bridal shower presents right away? Or are you more of a last-minute gift-buyer? Do you think you have enough on your wedding registry to cover all of your generous guests?

Rio vs. Chi-town: Olympics Decision Later Today
More than a hundred members of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) are meeting in Copenhagen to take a look at the final four presentations from four global cities that each want to host the 2016 Summer Olympics. Representatives from Madrid, Chicago, Tokyo and Rio de Janeiro will each be making 45-minute presentations to the IOC members; the committee will vote in secret later this afternoon.
We talk first with Alex Capstick, BBC sports correspondent, on the scene in Copenhagen. Then it's back to our own Femi Oke, who reports that Chicago and Rio are really the only two contenders, and both cities are ready to talk a big game to go for Olympic gold. And finally, to get the mood in Chicago, we turn to Lynette Kalsnes, arts and culture reporter with WBEZ.

The girl behind the counter at The Warehouse shook her head in disbelief. "Thank you for your honesty," she said.
Just 15 minutes before she had been completely frazzled as she dealt with my shopping cart full of pillows, sheets and towels while she cautiously eyed up the 10 customers lined up behind me. It was lunchtime and she was the only girl on.
"Oh, no problem," I said flicking my hair and hoping she wasn't being bothered by the glare from the imaginary halo I had just placed on my head.
Just moments before, I was unpacking my purchases into the car when I spied four fluffy towels in the bottom tray of my trolley. I had placed them there when the trolley became full and had not seen them when I was at the checkout so, essentially, I had shoplifted them.
And, to be honest, it took me a few minutes to decide whether I had it in me to be a shoplifter. I looked around and saw no one who looked like a security officer and I fantasised about quickly closing the boot and driving away.
I reasoned that the free towels were perhaps some sort of karmic return for all the crap I've bought at The Warehouse over the years which collapsed and stopped working the minute I got it home. And then Head Girl stepped in.
"You are probably part of a sting operation to catch middle-class white women like you. No, even better, you are part of some dreadful reality TV shows called Warehouse Watch or Trolley Patrol and they are filming you right now as part of their "How honest are you really?" section and they are waiting to see what you will do."
"Shut up," I said.
"I'm just saying," she said, becoming a little Nasal.
"I have worked in television, I think I would know if there was a crew around, they have a distinctive smell and they're not very good at hiding."
"I wonder if any of the papers would run the story when you got caught. I can just see the headline 'Greenie Smash-and-Grab Gran'
with a picture of you stashing the towels in the boot of your Prius. I also doubt
the lovely people who lend you the Prius to drive would be very happy with that kind of endorsement."
"Go away."
"And I'm not sure if you know this but your arse looks huge in those pants when you bend into the car like that."
"I hate you," I said to Head Girl before taking the towels back, queuing for another 10 minutes behind the now extremely stressed checkout girl.
They cost $68. A sum I could well afford and, as it turns out, a very cheap and legal way to get a Head Girl high.
As I drove out of the carpark, I could sense that everyone I came across that day would see my new halo and think "Now there goes a really good, honest woman".
I sang along to the car radio "I can see clearly now the rain has gone."
And then it hit me.
"I wonder if I'll be repaid by the laws of good and evil for such an honest act?" I asked myself and then I did a U-turn. I parked outside Briscoes and went in search of the conical burr.
I have been obsessed with the conical burr ever since someone who knows about making good coffee told me that the only way to grind coffee beans is using a conical burr, not a blade as I have been doing.
I drink only one cup of coffee a day and it has to be the best you can get. So I roast my own green coffee beans, grind them and put them in a stove-top espresso pot. But what I really needed was a conical burr. The only problem is that buying a conical burr would cost me just under $200.
I walked into the shop, went straight over to the conical burr section (you may have guessed by now that I really like the way conical burr sounds, which is why I'm using it a lot in this column).
And there it was. One of the few things marked down in the store by 50 per cent.
"Score!" I said a little too fiercely.
"Well done you," said Head Girl.

What CISPA Could Mean for Start-ups (and You)
The proposed bill aims to fight cyber attacks by giving the government access to customer data. But at what cost? If you recall, SOPA and PIPA were squashed just a few months ago thanks to privacy groups, technology companies, and Internet users who made a fuss over worries that the proposed legislation would usher forth a new era of Internet censorship. Now an equally maligned bill, the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA), has passed in the House of Representatives and will be taken up by the Senate in May. Read it here.
The Next Big Business Buzzword: Ecosystem?

Let's save the word ecosystem before it's too late!
Silicon Valley's Secret Subculture, Not So Secret Anymore

Given that innovation and entrepreneurship thrive in a culture of diversity, eclecticism, and creativity, then why has the Valley lacked a complementary edgy art, music, and literary scene?

Games of chance? Cause and effect in innovation ecosystems Part 1

Chance, probability, cause and effect are so embedded in our daily lives that may give scant thought to the mechanisms of causality – what cause produces what effect, either immediately or at a later time. In this and the next blog we shall show that time is the critical feature of causality in both "plantation" and "rainforest" innovation ecosystems....

Report: Grant Hill has interest from Heat, Thunder and Lakers
Grant Hill reportedly has interest from the Miami Heat, Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Lakers, according to David Aldridge of NBA.com:
Each team has indicated an interest in the veteran, whose defensive skills and leadership are still strong. It is not known if Miami's interest in Hill was at all affected by its agreement last week to sign guard Ray Allen from the Celtics.
Once Steve Nash indicated he would sign with the Lakers, Hill, 39, had reportedly said he would either follow Nash to Los Angeles or retire, but Alridge said in the report that he is now adding the Heat and Thunder to that short list.
In 49 games for the Suns last season, Hill averaged 10.2 points and 3.5 rebounds in 28 minutes. Regardless of where he goes, Hill will likely have to take a paycut from the $6.5 million he earned last season in Phoenix.

He was an All-American at Penn State. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1985. His son Matt Suhey, also played at Penn State and in the NFL.
Penn State[edit]
Suhey's college career was interrupted by three years of service in the United States Army Air Corps during World War II.[1]
Suhey was the MVP of the 1948 Cotton Bowl Classic. It has been suggested Penn State's now-famous "We Are Penn State!" stadium cheer has its origins in a statement made by team captain Suhey prior to that game. Suhey is said to have declared, "We are Penn State. There will be no meetings," in response to SMU's request for a meeting to protest the participation of Penn State's two black players (Wallace Triplett and Dennie Hoggard).[2]
While at Penn State, Suhey became a member of Sigma Pi fraternity.[3]
After playing two seasons in the NFL with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Suhey coached high school football before joining the L.G. Balfour Company.[1]
"First family of Nittany Lion football"[edit]
Suhey married Virginia "Ginger" Higgins, a daughter of Bob Higgins, a former All-American at Penn State and Suhey's college coach.[4] Three of their sons, Larry, Paul, and Matt, were letterman at Penn State from 1975–1979.[5] Matt would go on to play 10 seasons in the NFL with the Chicago Bears. One grandson, Kevin Suhey, was a quarterback and special teams player for the Nittany Lions from 2005–2007 and another grandson, Joe Suhey, was a running back for Penn State from 2007–2010.[5] The Higgins-Suhey family has been called the "first family of Nittany Lion football", with 90 years of involvement with the Penn State football program.[4]

BeschreibungNew York, Chicago, and Los Angeles -- for all their differences, they are quintessentially American cities. They are also among the handful of cities on the earth that can be called "global." Janet L. Abu-Lughod's book is the first to compare them in an ambitious in-depth study that takes into account each city's unique history, following their development from their earliest days to their current status as players on the global stage.Unlike most other global cities, New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles all quickly grew from the nearly blank slate of the American landscape to become important beyond the nation's borders early in their histories. As a result, Abu-Lughod is able to show the overall effect of globalization on each city's development. While all three are critical to global economics and the spread of American culture to the farthest reaches of an increasingly interlinked world, their influence reflects their individual histories and personalities. In a masterful synthesis of historical and economic information, Abu-Lughod clarifies how each city's global role is -- and will be -- affected by geography, ethnicity of population, political institutions, and tradition of governance.New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles are more than global players: they are also home to forty million people. Abu-Lughod closes the book with a set of vignettes that captures the cities' differences as perceived by one who has lived in them. Bringing together the local and the global in thoroughly unexpected and enlightening ways, this important volume offers fascinating insight into these vital urban centers.

Hive one Started from a package May 5th. The queen was released but never laid eggs. I think she may have died, so I requeened that hive. That queen did ok, got a couple frames of brood. During one inspection I noticed there were about 5 superseding cells. So I guess they kicked her out. The new queen that immerged I guess never mated properly and was laying only drone eggs .
Anyway I inspected that hive last week and its basically none existed. Just a handful of bees. Very tough.
Hive two Started from a package. That hive is still humming along, kinda. I dont have a good laying queen because of the amount of egg\larva\capped brood I see. Out of ten frames only 3 are being utilized. If I have more than 1000 bees in there Im lucky. I did replace some of the frames with drawn out comb frames from the first hive hoping it would stimulate the queen (wishful thinking.) Its getting late in the season and I am not expecting much for the winter.
Anyway, it was a great learning experience and I feel more confident in what Im doing. Next year I will try Nucs and possibly 3 hives instead oftwo.My reaction time may be a little faster too. From what success/failure Ive had, Ive truly enjoyed the whole experience. Looking forward to next year!
ExcellentWebsite. Whoever is running it is doing a great job.
Just felt like telling someone
