The electric scooter market, while still in its infancy, has taken huge leaps in recent years, as demonstrated by the 3 state-of-the-art models available from Genesis. Electric scooters, which were first patented in 1895, are now capable of traveling at speeds up to 20 mph and have a range per charge of 20 miles.
Along with innovations to batteries and other hardware, we have witnessed remarkable innovations to aesthetics, size, and ease of use.
To gain a better understanding of just how far the electric scooter has come, let's take a look at the history of the electric scooter. So hop into your nearest time machine and set the date for 1895!
The Pioneers of the Electric Scooter
The early years of the electric scooter are a bit fuzzy on exact details, but we do know that a Mr. Ogden Bolton Jr. filed the first patent for an electric motor scooter on September 19 1895. Curiously, nothing is known of Mr. Ogden Bolton Jr., other than the fact that he was an American inventor.
Ogden's patent laid out a design for an electric scooter with the electric motor located on the back wheel's hub. The motor used a direct current with six poles and included a 10-volt battery that could take 100 amps. Given the fact that no gearing system was used in the model, one can't imagine it to be a powerful machine. There is no evidence that Bolton's model was ever manufactured or put to any use.
Although not much came of Ogden's initial conception, it is interesting to imagine a lone inventor, during the late 1800's, casting his voice into the oil vs. electric propulsion debate that dominated the dialogue of that period. Ogden's patent caused enough interest to lead to some discussion in the American magazine Popular Mechanics during that period.
Not much came of the electric scooter until the year 1919, when the British agricultural machinery maker, Ransomes, Sims, and Jefferies revealed to the public a prototype. Their design was different from Ogden's in that the batteries were placed under the seat, instead of the rear wheel hub. Unfortunately, despite being initially approved for the road, this design too would fail due to a plethora of malfunctioning components discovered during the trial stage.
Fuel Shortage During WWII Sparks Renewed Interest in the Electric Scooter
During WWII, the majority of available oil went to the war effort. As a result, many people searched for an alternative fuel source to lower transportation costs at home. In 1936, a Belgian company called Socovel, founded by The Limelette Brothers, manufactured and sold an electric motorcycle to the public. The company switched to oil shortly after the war having sold only 400 scooters before doing so.
Contemporaneously, in America, an inventor named Earle Williams devised a means of turning fuel-powered vehicles into electric vehicles. William's invention led to the ParCar.
Electric Scooter Continues to Evolve
Throughout the sixties and seventies, a few players entered the game, although to little avail.
In 1967, Karl Kordesch invented a hybrid electric/fuel scooter that had a range of 200 mpg and could travel at speeds of 25 mph.
In 1974, Auranthic Corp, a small-sized machine manufacturer released a scooter called the Charger. This model could travel at speeds of 30 mph and could travel a distance of 50 miles on full charge.
Other companies tried and failed to mass-produce an electric scooter in this period as well, but it would not be until 1996 that the Puegeot Scoot'Elec was released onto the market and found success. The scooter was powered by a nickel cadmium battery and could travel up to speeds of 25 mph.
The Electric Scooters of Today
Many of the innovations that occurred since the Puegeot Scoot'Elect have been safety related, specifically regarding the battery. The rise of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery has been huge. Not only is the lithium-ion battery more efficient, but more environmentally safe than the nickel cadmium battery.
Furthermore, things have changed tremendously in the realm of aesthetics. As seen in the Genesis models, electric scooters are now smaller, sleeker, and can be folded down into an easy to carry size.
Whatever the future of the electric scooter holds, Genesis promises to be at the forefront, innovating and improving the form you love!

Most Valuable Leader by Frank Damazio
"Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them." –John C. Maxwell Leadership starts with you. You are the most valuable asset in the leadership culture. The character and quality of you the leader makes you the valuable person on whom the entire church is being built. You are on the front lines building relationships and walking with the people who are part of the vision – both in making the vision happen and being the people that we are trying to help. I have found that there are a couple very important facts that leaders need to realize. You matter to people. Your leadership matters to people. You will teach and model relational health with God, others, authority, family, and so on. There might be one person at the front leading the charge, but take that person away and the rest of the leaders are still in place, keeping the engine moving. Don't underestimate how much you matter to people. Others do look to you for leadership. How are you doing in leading them right now? Although a person could exert leadership of ideas through persuasive writings or making speeches, most leadership happens in an interactive context between individuals and group members. You reproduce yourself. Every leader must be actively reproducing other leaders. If no one is following you, you are just going for a walk. Leadership is training others to take your place in leadership. What kind of leader are you reproducing? Are they loyal, faith-filled, serving, encouraging, sacrificial and giving? You are to build your team with skills that are resident within you. Do you know who you are, what you care about and why people should follow you? Artificial leaders are no good for people. Phoniness, pretention, indecisiveness and fame playing are a detriment. You are important, valuable and responsible. People will serve and make a difference because of you. I hope you grasp today the fact that you are the most important and most valuable leader. This article was used with permission from FrankDamazio.com.

So on a warm and sunny afternoon at the Park, 5522 supporters see City move a point closer to safety in a lifeless 0-0 draw where neither keeper had a save to make all afternoon. City lined up: Jones; Golbourne, Friend, Taylor, Duffy, Tully; Dunne, Harley, Sercombe; Stewart, Fleetwood.
It was City who enjoyed the lion's share of possession during the opening exchanges, and City who created the better of the chances, but the shape of things to come was shown in the fourth minute when Harley broke down the left, played a neat one-two with Stewart in the box then cut the ball back from the near post for either Stewart or Sercombe to convert. Neither did, a defender saw the danger and got there first to boot the ball clear.
A minute later City looked to have a strong case for handball when Sercombe released Tully down the right who in turn sent Fleetwood racing towards the byline. Fleetwood crossed but the ball appeared to strike the forearm of O's central defender Tamika Mkandawire inside the penalty area. City and the crowd appealed, but the ref was having none of it and it was play on instead.
In the eighth minute Dunne, with his back to goal, played Fleetwood in with a superb defence splitter round the corner, but Fleetwood's run and cross was easily cut out by the keeper at the near post. Then ten minutes later Tully, Dunne and Fleetwood played a lovely triangle in the box before the ball was crossed in towards the far post, but with Stewart looking interested the ball was cleared for a corner before he could finish the move off.
And so for the majority of the remainder of the half the pattern was set: City would work the ball down the channels and cross to the tiniest bloke in the team - meat and drink for the Orient defenders, or Orient would hoof it down the middle for James Scowcroft to chase - meat and drink for the City defenders.
But right at the end of the half City had a couple of near misses. First Tully's good looking run and cross found Fleetwood's head where his flick to the far post glanced off a defender's head and onto the Big Bank, then second Stewart dinked the ball on to Fleetwood from the corner of the box but as Fleetwood looked to pounce the ball was deflected behind him before being eventually cleared.
The second half continued in much the same vein with little action in front of goal. Tully livened up proceedings in the 15th minute with a determined burst into the box riding a couple of tackles along the way before spoiling it all somewhat by blasting high over the O's fans behind the goal and somewhere down St James Road.
Five minutes later Fleetwood earned himself a free kick for obstruction on the edge of the 'D', but Harley followed Tully's lead in wastefully crashing the ball way over the bar.
Two minutes later Tisdale made the double substitution of Ryan Taylor for his St James Park debut and Corr for Fleetwood and Dunne, with Stewart sitting behind the two strikers in a sort of 5-2-1-2 formation. It made little difference to how the game progressed, with final action of note coming fully fifteen minutes before the final whistle. Sercombe's delicious raking cross field pass found Golbourne racing down the left. He played it in to Stewart who knocked it into the box where Ryan Taylor glanced a good looking header fractionally over.
But in the end, with the majority of other results going their way - including Stockport becoming the first team in the division to be relegated this season - it was a point gained as City moved four points away from danger. It also keeps their impressive recent run of results going and stretches it to eight games, meaning the last time City tasted defeat was at Brighton back at the end of February.
And it is that that City will take to the County Ground on Monday night for the live televised clash with Swindon. That and the fact that for large dollops of the game today City retained possession rather comfortably and at times passed it around quite sweetly. Plus for good measure they matched a giant Orient team physically too.
As for the players Jones had one of his easiest afternoons with the trickiest challenges coming from back passes, although there might be injury concerns with Marriott warming up in the second half just in case and Jones electing to throw the ball out rather than kicking it at every opportunity.
In front of him as usual Matt Taylor was imperious, heading away Eric Lechaj's long throws as though it were merely a training exercise. Friend and Duffy were comfortable too, with Duffy fast turning into a genuine Player of the Season candidate. Out wide Golbourne and Tully bombed up and down the wings, but unfortunately to no avail as there was usually only Fleetwood in the box with fellow striker Stewart playing deeper.
Dunne and Sercombe continue to form what looks to be a promising partnership in the middle of the Park, and continue to give Harley the time and space - too much time at times today - to work his magic.
The two substitutes were lively too, and at last provided something of a target up front, Ryan Taylor enjoying a decent half a half showing there's plenty there to work with.
But overall City will have to play a lot better on Monday if they're to get anything from the Swindon game, and especially will need to get someone in the box to convert the crosses that were easily cleared today. Swindon are in with a realistic chance of automatic promotion, so a toothless performance like today's is unlikely to earn either plaudits or points, but if they can play as they did a week earlier against Colchester then they'll give themselves a much better chance.
We're on a run however, and digging out results, so we can go there with confidence before the final four massive games of the season: away at Tranmere, home to Charlton, away to Hartlepool then finally home to Huddersfield. Tricky games all, but in the form we're in winnable all too.
Speaking of winnable fights, I'd like to end up with a word for Adam Stansfield, diagnosed this week with bowel cancer. We're with you all the way Stanno, get well soon, get that famous number nine shirt back on and get back to banging in League One goals for Exeter City. It's what you do best and it's what City fans the world over want to see you doing as soon as possible. Good luck to you and your family Adam, we're all behind you and we wish you all the best.

Cultural Shift to Service
If we look outside of our industry, we find others in similar situations. What's the difference between one auto dealer and another? They may sell exactly the same product line, in the same marketing area, from the same manufacturer- but some go out of business while others thrive. Why do the national payroll processing companies do well against local competitors in some areas and poorly in others?
The answer is both easy and complex. It's easy because it's so apparent. It is the people and the culture of the company that determines its success. However, this answer is difficult because a change of culture is much more difficult than any other change in a business.
Most companies claim to be service oriented. Everyone "says" that their people are their greatest resource. Everyone "claims" that their customers are king. But how often do we, as consumers, realize that the service and quality initiatives that are publicized by a company is only lip service?- another marketing tool to make customers believe that they're special?
The cultural shift to a service and quality culture requires inherent changes in the way we do business. These changes can only be accomplished through the dedication, acceptance, and pro-active implementation of the owners of the business. That's where the breakdown normally occurs. It's been very easy for agency owners to say that service is our point of differentiation. What they mean is that service is our point of differentiation - as long as I don't have to change to do it.
The greatest point of cultural change to differentiate your agency from that of all of your competitors is to change from a vertically managed organization to a horizontally managed organization. In its extreme fashion, this would mean that every person who touched the customer would have the authority to make any decisions affecting that customer (using their best judgement) without having to go to management for approval.
Of course any organization would be foolish to implement this type of change without having high quality service employees.
Do you remember that other well used cliche, "Our employees are our most important asset?" In horizontal organizations with a service culture, this cliche is actually the truth. Building this type of organization can only be done over time. First, the owners must stop referring to and using the service staff as "support staff". Support staff typically responds to and supports the activities of owners and producers. Service staff responds to and supports the needs of customers. Producers (and owners) often have strong egos and feel that they control the customers. In reality, customers are only "controlled" when they feel that their needs could not be met as efficiently anywhere else but in your agency. This has more to do with how their treated on a day to day basis than it does with how they're marketed for renewals.
In order to establish a horizontal, customer-oriented culture, you must first delegate both authority and responsibility to the service staff. Standard operating procedures (that which we can do ninety percent of the time to satisfy our customers under normal circumstances) is easy. It's the non-standard procedures that can be quickly and efficiently decided by direct service staff or must be referred to management for handling that truly differentiates insurance agencies. If you already have trusted, confident employees, you must assure them that making decisions with respect to customer problems will not endanger their job security. Most times those decisions will be the same as yours. However, sometimes they will not. Just as you and I will make mistakes on occasion, so will your service representatives. However, if those mistakes were made in the attempt to properly service customers, you should correct them, explain how the service person should have handled the situation, and let that service person go about their business.
Remember, providing authority and responsibility to service representatives does not abrogate your right and requirement to manage the process. We are not advocating anarchy. What we're suggesting is that if you do not have properly trained employees, you must train them or replace them. If you do have confident employees, you can imbue your company with a true service and quality culture if you allow them to perform the jobs for which they've been hired and serve the customers properly and efficiently without further intervention from management.


text: Two public safety issues were on the agenda at the Bangor City Council meeting Monday night.Meghan Hayward was there.Councilors voted on moving forward with negotiations of the possibility of consolidating Bangor Emergency Dispatch with Penobscot County Dispatch.The order passed six to one." In the long run it could prove to save money. We have no assurance that by maintaining the local Peace App that there will be any state funding. As I pointed out this is not the final decision, this is the first step toward a possible final decision."Councilor Hal Wheeler says Bangor is currently the only community in Penobscot County that has their own dispatch." Councilors in the past have been very reluctant, understandably, to do anything that would appear to diminish the effectiveness and efficiency of our police department."Wheeler says he doesn't believe the action taken at the meeting will have any impact on the department's efficiency." In fact it may indicate when we complete the study of both the police and fire that we need to give them more personnel to work with."" The letter that I read earlier indicated they were willing to hire the individuals that are doing dispatch in Bangor. I suspect that they will keep them doing the dispatch for the city of Bangor. The building they do dispatch in is in the city of Bangor. I don't see it as an issue. If I did I wouldn't have supported it."Another related item on the agenda, bringing in an outside consultant to look for additional savings in the Bangor Police and Fire Department's budgets." The cost of the consultants, which will be about $70,00 will come from what is known as the undesignated reserve. That's about 8.7 million dollars that the city of Bangor has that is not designated, reserved or allocated for anything else. We use that for special purposes."Both orders were passed.Some folks raised concerns that bringing in an outside consultant was an insult to the police and fire chief.Council Chair, Richard Stone doesn't agree." If you spend 250 million dollars over ten years for the two departments combined and to spend $70,000 to find out better ways to do things or to verify that what you're doing is correct. There is always room for improvement."

The Montreal Impact have put themselves in a tough spot heading into the final two weeks of the season.
The Impact appeared to be on their way to their first ever MLS Cup playoffs this season just a few short weeks ago — they were even in the Supporter's Shield discussion for much of the season — but a second straight 1-0 defeat in less than a week and a seven game winless streak has Montreal clutching to a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference with two games to go.
One good nugget of news for the Impact, who lost to a depleted Los Angeles Galaxy squad last night, is that they can expect forward Marco Di Vaio to return next year. The 37-year-old forward has been contemplating retiring, but yesterday the Impact announced they would exercise their option to keep the Designated Player for the 2014 season.
For the Impact, having Di Viao next season is a huge boost for the franchise, but right now,they need their leading goalscorer to get back on track and save the Impact's season before it slides out of reach. A win in Philadelphia this weekend would go a long way to doing just that.
Here are some more notes from across the Eastern Conference:
Chicago Fire head coach Frank Klopas has a decision to make in his midfield pairing: stick with Jeff Larentowicz and Alex or bring Arevalo Rios back into the fold with his return from international duty. Larentowicz and Alex helped lead the Fire to a 3-2 defeat of FC Dallas last weekend and the Fire are 6-2-3 with that central pairing.
But Rios brings plenty of his own pedigree and skill to the Fire midfield and was impressive in Uruguay's 3-2 defeat of Argentina this week in World Cup Qualifying. It's a nice dilemma to have, but one that Klopas needs to answer with a must-win game against Toronto this weekend with playoff implications.
The Fire haven't clinched their playoff spot yet, and, with Toronto playing better as of late, Klopas needs to get his midfield pairing right because a loss to Toronto could be a deathblow in such a tight race.
To prepare for their season's defining game against the New England Revolution this Saturday, the Columbus Crew are getting ready for the turf fields at Gillette Stadium by practicing on turf themselves. According to a team source, the Crew are practicing at Ohio Dominican University's Panther Field, which is a turf field, in preparation for this weekend's game.
Columbus needs a lot to happen if they want to make the playoffs as they're five points behind Chicago with two games to go in the season. But more than anything, the Crew need to win their two-game mini-series with the Revolution to close out the season if they want any chance of making the playoffs.
Injuries have been a staple of D.C. United's troublesome 2013 campaign. It seems that whenever coach Ben Olsen looks to have the team heading in the right direction things fall apart and player's end up missing games for one reason or another.
The latest development for Olsen has been to find healthy defenders for the final games of the season. One way to relieve the pressure for Olsen has been to move midfielder Perry Kitchen to center back to fill the defensive void left by the injuries to Ethan White and Dejan Jakovic despite being short in the midfield because of the injury to John Thorrington.
"Perry has all the qualities you want in a center back," Olsen said after D.C.'s draw with Philadelphia on Saturday to MLSSoccer.com. "Focus, concentration, physicality and calmness on the ball. He certainly could be an option there, but I also really like him in that holding midfield spot. It's a luxury to have a guy who can play both."
If the playoffs started today the Dynamo would be in the hunt for this year's MLS Cup.
But in two weeks they could be looking from the outside and finish in seventh place if they can't take care of business on the field. One thing is for sure, though, if the Dynamo beat New York on Sunday at BBVA Compass Stadium then they will secure at least a playoff spot. If everything goes their way, Houston could finish as high as third place in the East. It's the tightest playoff race that coach Dominic Kinnear can recall.
"Usually by this time most of the time things are either sorted out or maybe two or three teams are jockeying for position," Kinnear said. "You look at the West, two teams are not involved in the playoffs. It's an excellent year for all the teams involved, the coaches have done a good job and it's exciting for the fans."
Life for Jerry Bengtson in New England hasn't been easy since the club signed him last year as a designated player. He hasn't scored the plethora of goals the team hoped he would when they signed him and if reports from Honduras are to be believed, it looks like he is looking for a way out of New England.
Bengtson told Honduran newspaper Diez that he has spoken to the Revs about moving on at the end of the season and that he doesn't want to continue playing in Major League Soccer. When asked about the situation, a Revolution source said the team is focused on trying to make the playoffs and that personnel decision will be made at the end of the season.
A league source confirmed that Bengtson's contract with the Revolution extends past this season.
Roy Miller continues to edge his way be back in the fold for the New York Red Bulls.
The Costa Rican left back has missed the team's last six games due to an Achilles ligament injury, but according to head coach Mike Petke, Miller is making some progress from what looked initially to be a serious injury.
"I was very encouraged to see (Miller) doing light work today outside for the first time," Petke told reporters on his weekly conference call. "Roy is still definitely a little bit away."
If the Red Bulls can have Miller at their disposal come the playoffs, it would be a huge boost to a position that's been battered by injuries this season.
Sebastien Le Toux told reporters on Tuesday that if the Philadelphia Union's next game was on Wednesday, he wouldn't be playing because of a right foot injury that has been bothering him since the Union's 1-0 loss to San Jose on Sept. 8.
The pain from the injury, which turned out to be a partial tear of his right plantar fascia, forced Le Toux to pull himself out of last weekend's game against D.C. United, where he was filling in at right back.
"I'm definitely questionable for this weekend. It's kind of day-to-day.," Le Toux said. "I could feel better tomorrow but there's stuff I can't do like cutting, which still hurts a lot. This has never happened to me before so I don't know what to expect."
Matt Besler returned to Kansas City ahead of the U.S.'s Hex game against Panama on Tuesday and had enough time to recover and get himself back in the mix for this weekend's game against D.C. United.
Besler's availability is a huge lift for Sporting KC because starting defender Aurélien Collin will miss Friday's game because of yellow card accumulation. Graham Zusi's availabilty, on the other hand, is still up in the air for the D.C. United encounter.
"If he plays in that game down in Panama, he'll get back Tuesday night and be back with us in plenty of time for our game," Vermes told reporters on Monday. "It just depends on how much time he plays in that game."
Zusi went the full 90 for the U.S. Men's National Team against Panama, leaving him a serious doubt for Friday.
Stefan Frei was once one of the bright spots in Toronto.
The goalkeeper was a mainstay between the posts for them, and put in plenty of Man of the Match performances for the struggling franchise, but Joe Bendik's performances forced Frei out after the team's longest serving player was injured during preseason. This weekend Frei has a chance to try and reclaim his position as a No.1 goalkeeper, even if he's not letting on that he's looking at his future.
"Right now I am focused on what is at hand," Frei told reporters. "We'll deal with the future once we get to that bridge."
This is an important point in Frei's career. He needs to reclaim his position as a top-goalkeeper in MLS, and there is no better time than now with Toronto looking to reshape and rebuild again to lay claim to his position as a club stalwart.
What do you think of these notes? Surprised that Di Vaio is returning to MLS? Do you believe that the Revolution will let Bengtson leave in the offseason even if they're losing Juan Agudelo as well? Do you see Graham Zusi playing against New England on Friday?
Share your thoughts below.
Bengtson is a great young talent, but it doesnt sound great for a guy to be upset with his country and club teams all in the same year…
Is he really a great young talent though?
I think that from the games he has played this year for the revs, the observation would be a flat "nope." Maybe the observation is different from his Honduras games, but for the revs this year he has been laughably poor.
Kingsly Alexander - Man Rey - Plotinus - Sankt Pauli!
He doesn't play for his club, yet he scores goals against the best in concacaf. Yes, I'd say he's a talent. Maybe jay heaps doesn't know what the hell he's doing, or just doesn't like him. Either way, he'll leave and land in Europe. For the revs sake I hope they get something for him.
He's not a DP that's for sure.
He did play for his club, for the first 9 or 10 games of the season. And he could only bag one goal. I dunno, I just don't get the hype on this guy.
If MLS teams do not get grass fields by next season, they should be forced to play only away games..
How 'bout not letting 10,000 cowboys do the boot scoot boogie on your natural turf before a SS run and a USMNT game. Robb Heineman should be ashamed of the field in Sporting Park. I know they want to win, I know they want to do well by the USMNT, but allowing that concert at that time of year was a bad move.
The concert didn't cause the problems…the field was covered. The field looked like crap WAY before that. Grounds crew should be fired. Best stadium, crap surface.

Forestry tax breaks 'terribly unfair'
Australian Greens leader Bob Brown has described the continuation of tax breaks for investors in the forest plantation industry as "terribly unfair".
The Federal Government has announced that investors in forestry Managed Investment Schemes (MIS) will be entitled to immediate, up-front tax deductibility for all expenditure from July next year.
But at least 70 per cent of expenditure must be directly related to developing forestry.
Senator Brown says the Government has given overseas investors a tax break while farmers struggle with the drought and lose their land to plantation forestry.
"The rest of the farming community which produces out food, which produces all the things that we need for the essentials in life, is at a tax disadvantage to these plundering investment schemes which are taking over the land to plant plantations with the profits largely flowing out of the state," he said.

BOSTON -- The highlights of Terry Francona's pregame meeting with the media Saturday:

-- On whether MLB will ever get the drug issue in the past: "I think it's unfair to hold baseball to that. Do you think life is going to get away from the drug issue?"

Three's A Crowd And A Harem
I don't know what to say...or how to make it lyrical.
Said you don't believe in God, but you're looking for a miracle.
Thought I didn't mean it when I said, "I love you." Are you cereal?
Killer, of my heart. My feelings couldn't have been realer.Your smile, your silly side, had me higher than a dealer.
I let you floor me, adore me, explore me, ignore me...I think I'm really starting to abhor me.
Cause see, I got caught up on the idea of 'we,'
While you got scared and pumped the breaks right there at 'you' and 'me.'
So I ran to you; you made me me feel like a queen.
You were a golden boy; you were my perfect James Dean.
You put your heart on the line, laid all your cards on the table.
And I played you because I was willing and able.
But then things changed and you flipped the script.
You left me silently and went out with some other chick.
Who am I to shame you? You found out I was lying.
That's why I tried to blame you, so I wouldn't be the one who's crying.
And you were comfort food; eye candy for the multitude.
I wasn't even trying to talk. I gave you time 'cause you weren't rude.
Then you made me think that you might be a good choice.
My feelings got in a flurry and I felt I had found my voice.
But you and I, we're nothing more than skin and heat.
You couldn't reach my thoughts; I could just be another piece of meat.
I backed away slowly, because I didn't want you to hate me.
Though I knew you'd figure out I chose 'Xbox' over the 'PS3.'
You don't know how many times I've mixed up your names.
'Hey Ray Ray-I mean Tay Tay," heh, I've resigned to calling you, 'Babe.'
I've forgotten the difference between love and lust, it's all the same.
It's the price you pay when you're playing this game.
I'm ashamed...that's right I'm ashamed.
Cause I'm the one to blame.
I don't live this life, but I fell in it unfortunately.
Cause you threw me away, you couldn't stay, and you just sort of found me.
This was never about your deficiencies.
This was about the girl I'm still struggling to be.

Japan may cut corporate tax
Norio Sasaki, a member of Japan's government panel subcommittee on corporate tax reform, said that Japan could cut its corporate tax rate as early as next fiscal year by 2-3%.
Japan's effective tax rate of about 36% is the second-highest in the G7 after the US and compares with levies of about 24% in South Korea and 23% in the UK.
The nation's Prime Minister Abe pledged to pursue corporate tax reforms earlier this year, part of his Abenomics drive to revive the national economy. In June Abe will outline further measures to improve business conditions in Japan. Note that the tax cut will be accompanied by a rise in revenue from other sources to avoid worsening the government's fiscal position which is already in a very bad shape.

Film Camp for At-Risk Youth, Belize
This four-week camp (split into 2 two-week sesisons) gives you the chance to use your film production skills to empower at-risk youth in the city of San Ignacio, Belize, locally known as Cayo. You will share your knowledge to guide the film camp students in producing films that will be shared through online media throughout Belize. Cayo and the surrounding areas are made up of Creole, Maya, and Mestizo peoples, making it a culturally fascinating place to visit. Cayo itself is a beautiful market town set among breathtaking tropical hills.
This project aims to provide a free camp for the local youth in the area, which necessitates volunteers with experience in various aspects of filmmaking and the film industry. The camp is excited to include international volunteers from PAA, as they hope this will give students a window into the international film industry, which will ultimately give a boost to Belize's fledgling film industry.
The program is split into 2 two-week sessions. The first session focuses on the art of storytelling and different approaches to film-making with the goal of producing a script on a topic important to the film camp participants. The second session focuses on production and operating camera equipment, and culminates in the creation of short films. As an international film volunteer, you may join either or both sessions, but PAA recommends staying for the entire 4 weeks so you can see the project develop from the beginning all the way through to a final project.

Free Shipping On Orders Over $100
Sports physiotherapists and soft tissue/massage therapists work together to deliver a range of services to athletes and sports. The overarching aim is to facilitate performance success. At the highest sporting level at the Australian Institute of Sport, these services are delivered as part of a collaborative approach in conjunction with other sports science and sports medicine disciplines. In addition to treating injured athletes, therapists contribute to performance through assisting injury prevention, recovery and improving sport specific movement functions.
All athletes appreciate that some pain can be a normal experience associated with sporting activities. However sometimes pain can be more than training soreness, and can be a symptom of injury.
It is the role of sport physiotherapist and sports doctors to accurately diagnose injuries and guide the best possible return to sport.
This requires close consultation with the athlete to consider the potential risks relative to the athlete's goals. After a diagnosis has been made, physiotherapists and soft tissue therapists work together to improve pain, movement, function, and the underlying healing environment. Manual treatment techniques are used in association with education, exercise therapy and other treatment modalities (needling, electrotherapy etc.).
As well as good nutrition, a good warm down and appropriate recovery strategies (including compression garments), massage is utilized for improving recovery between some of the more taxing sessions.
Sports massage is usually seen as most effective if there is no existing injury or pain, and can help athletes generally perform better at their next session.
Physiotherapy also assesses to identify potential factors contributing to areas of pain or immobility for the athlete. They can advise on effective strategies to manage the symptoms, and address the causes.
Therapies such massage and physio can help you with your performance goals.
The best performing athletes are those who prepare well, by being able to effectively complete their training to their best potential. Practitioners work to ensure athletes can train maximally, with minimal limitations.
Massage has been shown in both anaerobic and aerobic training to improve recovery and performance, and is constantly used for athletes to get the absolute most out of their bodies.
Some athletes feel like they have an injury list longer than a shopping list! This can be frustrating for the athletes and practitioners alike, but the challenge of continuing to improve as an athlete means pushing boundaries. Understanding your injury and where it's coming from is such an important part of addressing the cause to prevent recurrence and identify any opportunities to enhance performance.
Training load is a vitally important part of management at any level.
A treatment plan and long-term approach to an injury is the most effective process for athletes and non-athletes alike. Whether it be recovering from a two week ankle sprain, or a season ending ACL reconstructive surgery, questions that should be asked by you and your practitioner are:

text: I got to thinking after I picked up the Ruger the other day. I had not owned a firearm for about two years and just picked it up because I wanted something for the house and because of the deal. Now I think I'll start a modest collection again. At least another pistol and a shotgun and rifle. Do you own firearms? I know this might be a "touchy" subject sor some, but could make for interesting debate.

text: PeruBlock 95 (100% working interest and operator) Gran Tierra Energy has initiated drilling of the horizontal side-track extension of the Bretaña Norte 95-2-1XD oil discovery well. Casing has been set at the top of the Vivian reservoir, where very high quality sands with very good oil shows were encountered, and the drilling of a 500 meter horizontal leg has been initiated. Upon completion, a short test will be conducted. Plans are ongoing to initiate long-term testing from this horizontal well, with production to be initiated within a year. In addition, a Preliminary Front End Engineering Design has been initiated for the Bretaña Norte field development to support reserves booking, with results expected before year-end. Brazil Block 142 (100% working interest and operator) Gran Tierra Energy's horizontal multi-stage fracture stimulation exploration drilling program in the Recôncavo Basin onshore Brazil is ongoing, with results of the program expected mid-year. About Gran Tierra Energy Inc. Gran Tierra Energy is an international oil and gas exploration and production company, headquartered in Calgary, Canada, incorporated in the United States, trading on the NYSE MKT (GTE) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (GTE), and operating in South America. Gran Tierra Energy holds interests in producing and prospective properties in Colombia, Argentina, Peru, and Brazil. Gran Tierra Energy has a strategy that focuses on establishing a portfolio of producing properties, plus production enhancement and exploration opportunities to provide a base for future growth. Gran Tierra Energy's Securities and Exchange Commission filings are available on a web site maintained by the Securities and Exchange Commission at http://www.sec.gov and on SEDAR at http://www.sedar.com. Forward Looking Statements and Advisories A barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") is calculated using the conversion factor of six thousand cubic feet ("Mcf") of natural gas being equivalent to one barrel of oil. BOEs may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6 Mcf : 1 barrel of oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. In addition, given that the value ratio based on the current price of oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalent of six to one, utilizing a BOE conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 barrel of oil would be misleading as an indication of value.

WASHINGTON — The nation's largest banks will begin sending payments this week to millions of Americans who may have been wrongfully foreclosed on during the housing crisis.
A total of $3.6 billion in cash will be distributed to 4.2 million borrowers, the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Comptroller of the Currency said today. Payments will range from $300 to $125,000. About 90 percent of borrowers whose mortgages were serviced by 11 of the banks will receive payments by the end of April, the agencies said.
The last group of payments is expected in mid-July.
The banks, which include Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Citigroup, reached a settlement with the federal agencies in January. They agreed to pay a total $9.3 billion in cash and in reductions of mortgage balances.
The 13 banks settled the regulators' complaints that they wrongfully foreclosed on borrowers with abuses such as "robo-signing," or automatically signing off on foreclosures without properly reviewing documents.
The settlement covers foreclosures in 2009 and 2010. It ended an independent review of loan files that the two agencies ordered in 2011.
Banks and consumer advocates had complained that the loan-by-loan reviews were time-consuming and costly and didn't reach many affected borrowers. Some questioned the independence of the consultants who performed the reviews, who often ruled against borrowers.
Consumer advocates have criticized the deal, saying the regulators settled for too low a price by letting banks avoid full responsibility for wrongful foreclosures.
The other banks in the settlement are HSBC, MetLife Bank, PNC Financial Services, Sovereign, SunTrust, U.S. Bank, Aurora, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs.

Zambia: MSF responds to worst cholera outbreak in years
April 11, 2010
In Lusaka, the capital city of Zambia, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is responding to the worst cholera outbreaks in the country for many years. Over the last five weeks the number of cholera cases has risen dramatically to more than 4,500, while more than 120 people have lost their lives. Despite hopes that the outbreak has reached its peak the previous week and that the number of cholera cases will start decreasing, heavy rains that continue to cause severe floods in the city could potentially worsen the situation in the coming weeks.
MSF teams are working around the clock to treat people affected by cholera and try to contain the spread of the outbreak. MSF has set up three cholera treatment centres (CTC) in Matero, Chawama and Kanyama, with a capacity of 567 beds, and is also supporting 17 cholera treatment units (CTU). Since March 4, MSF teams in collaboration with the Ministry of Health have treated 4,020 patients in the three CTC's. "Last week we suffered the peak of the outbreak with a total of 1054 cases admitted. This number of cholera cases is by far the highest recorded in the last decade", said Luke Arend, Head of Mission of MSF in Zambia. "Due to the severity of this outbreak, we are stepping up our intervention, in close collaboration with the Ministry of Health of Zambia."
Besides providing direct treatment to cholera patients, MSF is also working intensively for the prevention of the spread of the outbreak in the worst hit areas of the city. MSF water and sanitation staff is providing over 500,000 litres of chlorinated water per day in the affected neighbourhoods of Lusaka, while a team of nearly 50 contact tracers is working on a daily basis for disinfecting the homes of cholera patients, providing people chlorine for treating their water and teaching them of safe practices to avoid transmission. MSF is also supporting another team of drainage diggers to remove flood waters in the worst affected areas. More than 100 volunteers, with the help of a drama group as well, are conducting outreach activities in the communities with the aim to inform people on how to prevent the spread of the disease. MSF has also produced a television announcement about the prevention of cholera that is aired on the national television channel.
Cholera is endemic in Zambia. Over the previous years, Lusaka has seen repeated outbreaks during the rainy season. The lack of provision of drainage, access to clean water and poor hygiene and sanitation conditions are the route causes of the recurrence and severity of outbreaks. "The vast majority of the population in Lusaka is living in such conditions that make them extremely vulnerable to cholera due to the lack of access to safe water, drainage and good sanitation facilities. What is clear is that much more has to be done by the authorities in the short-term to improve cholera response preparedness and to avert the needless loss of so many lives each year. There is also a need for political commitment to long-term infrastructural investment in drainage, sanitation and water provision in these unplanned peri-urban areas of Lusaka to rid the city of this deadly cholera. For far too long there has been neglect in provision of these basic services," said Luke Arend.
MSF has been working in Zambia since 1999. In this cholera emergency intervention, 17 international staff are working alongside more than 500 Zambian colleagues in Lusaka.

The cull of 6,000 ducks has started after a case of bird 'flu was confirmed at a breeding farm in East Yorkshire.
Chief veterinary officer Nigel Gibbens said the farm had good biosecurity in place so the risk of spread was "probably quite low".
Meanwhile, the European Commission said the outbreak was likely to be linked to migratory birds – possibly swans – heading south for winter, and to cases in the Netherlands at the weekend and Germany earlier in the month.
Transport of poultry and eggs has been banned throughout the Netherlands after an outbreak of the H5N8 bird 'flu strain was confirmed at a chicken farm in the central province of Utrecht.
The commission said the "information available indicates the H5 virus in the UK is probably identical to the H5N8… virus found in the Netherlands and in Germany".

Made from this recipe: http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/persimmon-bread-i/Detail.aspx Mine took 65 minutes to bake, perhaps because of the glass pan? The pulp came from my very first crop of homegrown persimmons. It took many years to get a crop, but it was well worth the wait. They are sweet and delicious as is this bread. Looking forward to next year's crop.
