Remembering a Courageous Whistleblower
The program pays tribute to one of her first editors, Vivian Aplin-Brownlee, who recently lost her fight with leukemia.
MICHEL MARTIN, host:
Every now and again when I have something on my mind, I like to talk about it in a commentary. And today, I want to pay tribute to a former colleague of mine who recently lost her fight with leukemia.
Her name was Vivian Aplin-Brownlee, and the reason I put it that way - lost her fight - is not that I'm wedded to euphemisms, but rather that's how I think of her, as a scrappy, tough-as-nails editor with this little girl voice who could pull things out of you you never knew you had.
Vivian was one of my first editors when I got into the news business. I had been a summer intern at the Washington Post, just out of college. And at the end of the summer, I got an entry level job there - barely one step up from an intern, really - working for what was then a relatively new thing, a zoned edition of the metro section.
It was supposed to be hyper local - births of quintuplets, standout high school scholars, zoning disputes, that kind of thing. It was in tabloid form, an insert to the rest of the paper. I got the impression from my colleagues that we were supposed to think of ourselves as stepchildren to the rest of the paper, but Vivian was having none of that. No, her attitude was that she was running her own newspaper, and we had better snap to it.
Every day, she said, was a chance to get on the front page. Never mind that there were only two of us fighting for that weekly slot. We were expected to go out, beat the bushes, get a story and make it sing. Oh, and sit there and rewrite it and re-report it until it did. I appreciated Vivian because she was tough. She made it clear excellence was to be expected every day, but she was also supportive.
Once when a highly respected married senior newsman made a crude come-on to me and I have no idea what to do, she never doubted me for a minute and never made me feel bad for being so upset. Vivian became semi-famous because of her role in what had to be one of the most painful episodes of both of our careers - the Janet Cook scandal.
Cook was a young African-American female reporter who made up a story about an 8-year-old heroin addict in the district. She stuck to the lie all the way through her selection for a Pulitzer Prize, one of the industry's highest awards. Vivian smelled trouble right away. She knew that Janet was a fabulous writer, but a streetwise reporter she was not. She was afraid to go into parts of the city, so the idea that Janet could actually persuade a drug dealer so hard bitten he would shoot his kid up with drugs to let her write about him was laughable to Vivian.
Vivian tried to raise an alarm about the piece, but her superiors did not believe her. I'm not really sure why, but I think there were some suggestion that the glamorous young Cook was the target of professional jealousy.
Well, the rest, as they say, is history. Vivian was right. Janet Cook was a total fake - her story, her resume, even her weave.
Can I just tell you? I learned some of the most powerful lessons of my career. First, that racial solidarity cannot substitute for core values. Vivian could have kept her mouth shut so as not to embarrass another black woman, but she refused. The truth was more important. And then, when the truth finally did come out, Vivian told her story to the paper's ombudsman, and then she stopped talking about it. I never saw her give another interview about the whole mess, and I never heard her gloat.
If anything, she's thought the whole thing was tragic. Vivian was a class act. In a time when people get confused about what journalism is supposed to be about, Vivian was very clear it's about calling it as you see it - no more, no less.
Vivian Aplin-Brownlee taught me that. She died last week at the age of 61. I hope to be like her when I grow up.
(Soundbite of music)

The mantle of 'next big thing' can be onerous on any sportsman, more so a Brit in the land of the big men where success has previously been thin on the canvass. But Anthony Joshua has shoulders broad enough to carry the title as well as a waist built for belts. This weekend he moves further up the mountain to where Tyson Fury now basks, polishing the belts Joshua so desires.
Joshua is already loftily ranked by most of the organizations so theoretically a fight with Fury could happen anytime but given AJ faces Dillian Whyte on Saturday for the Vacant British Title won by Fury four years ago, that mouthwatering prospect is on ice for at least a year or so. Of course Joshua has to deal with Whyte first in a mini-grudge match that appears his biggest test to date.
The pair met six years ago as amateurs when Joshua was young and raw and knocked down before losing on points. AJ has improved quickly and is unbeaten in 14 since turning pro two years ago. All 14 opponents have been dispatched within the first three rounds including the normally rugged Denis Bakhtov and the previously unstoppable Kevin Johnson. Timing and age has played a part in such results but Johnson had gone the distance with both Fury and Chisora.
Whyte meanwhile still rankles at criticism from Joshua during his two-year ban from boxing for using a banned substance related to an energy drink. The irony won't be lost on those who recall Joshua narrowly avoided clink for possession of cannabis 'with intent to supply' in 2011. The enmity between the pair is real and an already explosive match-up is tinder ready for the spark.
Click here for all the best Anthony Joshua v Dillian Whyte odds
There won't be many fancying this fight to reach halfway given Joshua doesn't know what a fourth round is, while Whyte, with 13 KO's in 16 wins, has only been as far as the fourth on three occasions himself. But for the first time in his career to date, Joshua will face off against a man who believes in himself and is coming to win. More to the point, Whyte can box a bit and is much better than his 8/1 odds suggest.
The problem for Whyte is he's up against something of a freak; a heavyweight who is big, athletic and can punch destructively. Joshua also lives the life and he loves hurting opponents. It's a recipe that spells disaster for rivals and has casual fans salivating while promoter Eddie Hearn dances to Abba's "Money, money, money" behind closed doors.
Whyte will attempt to put Joshua on the back foot but his languid, loose style will present openings sooner rather than later. Joshua has 5 first round KO's with 7 more coming in the second and at around 5/4 for both, that is where many will place their faith. I wouldn't argue with that but in what has become an entertaining game of Joshua round roulette, there might be some value in the 9/4 for rounds 3 & 4 coupled. It will be fun however long it lasts.
'Spike' will come out throwing bombs and is not un-fancied for the upset at 5/1 (365) but he does make mistakes and Eubank should weather the early storm to find his range. If O'Sullivan starts fast this could combust with the under 5.5 Rounds at 11/8 (Skybet) making some appeal but concentrate on the total rounds markets with Over or Under 7.5 the play at Evs either way. My instinct is Spike makes this a war and it ends before halfway but I'm mindful Eubank hit Chudinov with everything for more than 11 rounds before finally getting him out of there so I'll take a chance on Over 7.5 at Evens. This fight might even upstage the big men at the top of the bill.

Syrah, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer saw the biggest percentage rises in production off relatively small bases, and the crop of signature variety Sauvignon Blanc rose 26% to 229,000 tonnes, accounting for two-thirds of total output.
Total grape production in biggest region Marlborough was up by a third to 252,000 tonnes.
Chief executive Philip Gregan said: "An outstanding New Zealand summer provided near perfect conditions for growing grapes across the country.
"We expect the 2013 wines to be vibrant, fruit-driven and complex expressions of our diverse grape growing regions.
"The small 2012 grape crop left the industry unable to meet continuing strong consumer demand in established and new markets.
"Winemakers will welcome the more normal 2013 harvest as the better balanced supply will facilitate renewed export growth in the year ahead."

(Reuters) - In theory, last year should have been a great time to be invested in a hedge fund. With markets gobsmacked by U.S. and euro zone crises, what better way to protect your money than to hedge against the market -- the nominal premise behind a hedge fund? Managers can be defensive and pick the sectors or countries that will do well when most of the market is sour. There's a big catch here: Success depends upon whether managers guess which sector won't decline or manage to retreat to bonds at the right time.
And hedge funds definitely got caught in the net in 2011.
Most hedgies guessed wrong last year or stayed their own doomed course. Like most actively managed investments, hedge funds fell victim to the myth that you can predict -- and avoid -- market gyrations on a regular basis. Except for fixed-income funds, every other category of hedge funds lost money in 2011, and all told, the sector lost about 5 percent. Depending upon which hedge fund strategy you bought into, you could've done even worse. Some 75 percent of funds in emerging markets lost money. India and emerging Europe were among the worst categories. Only Brazil was a winner among the developing countries.
Meanwhile, the passive S&P 500 Industrial Index gained about 2 percent on a total return basis, according to the HFN Hedge Fund Aggregate Index (link.reuters.com/mav46s). You also would've been better off holding a portfolio of plain-Jane U.S. Treasury bonds.
Like consistently winning the Super Bowl, it's difficult for a hedge fund manager to beat the market. Because of their fees, they're always starting behind the eight ball. Hedge funds charge up to 20 percent for performance (as a percentage of profits), and up to 2 percent for management -- dwarfing the management fees of passive stock-index funds, which charge as little as 0.07 percent for total annual management.
In a new book entitled "The Hedge Fund Mirage," author Simon Lack said real investor profits were a negative $308 billion from 1998 to 2010. In 2008, when hedge funds should have been protecting investors' funds, they consumed nearly all of the profits earned in previous years.
Ronnie Shah, a research associate with Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA), a low-cost money manager (www.dfaus.com/),
found that fees usually get in the way of producing superior returns once you subtract all fund expenses -- which is essential math for every investor.
"The arithmetic of active management predicts that, in aggregate, active managers will underperform the market by the fees they charge," Shah wrote in an unpublished DFA paper available to clients. The paper studied portfolio returns from 1927 through 2010.
Of course, this is nothing new to index-fund investors, who have been heeding the mantra of Vanguard Group founder Jack Bogle for decades.
Bogle keeps it simple for every investor. "Costs matter," is his cri de coeur. The man should win a Nobel Prize in economics not only for his good sense and durable mathematical truths, but for inventing the index fund, which has saved and made investors billions over the decades.
Not only do costs matter, but manager risk, transparency and liquidity are still massive stumbling blocks in hedge funds. Managers are constantly guessing which sector is going to be profitable, but are slow to disclose what they hold and lock up investors' money.
Many of these risks are unnecessary. If hedge fund and other active money managers were to adhere to a fiduciary standard and put their clients' interests first, not only would their exorbitant fees plummet, they might well adopt more passive approaches -- in which case they couldn't remotely justify those incredible expenses.
The SEC is working on a fiduciary proposal for brokers, but is chafing under pressure from the financial services industry. Brokers and non-fiduciary advisers are pulling out all stops to kill this new rule, which was mandated by the Dodd-Frank financial reform law. So it's not known exactly when we'll see the rule or if whether it will be diluted (link.reuters.com/sav46s).
As for the $2 trillion hedge fund industry, if you want to spend money on the cachet of having a manager throwing darts -- knowing most of them are unlikely to beat the market -- be my guest.
Just be aware that the "hedging" part of their names is often a money-losing misnomer. Maybe they're just referring to the Versailles-like shrubbery in front of their exquisitely landscaped offices. Guess who's paying for it?

text: This is a repost of my ar15.com forum thread, but I think you guys might give me a more straight up answer. I've tried researching this for the past couple of days and couldn't find anything. Maybe you guys can give me some insight. My Carbon15 does not have a buffer retainer in the lower receiver. I have to remove the buffer tube to breakdown my ar15 because the buffer rests against the bolt carrier. My lower receiver cracked and I purchased a RRA lower (still waiting to pick it up). When I looked at it at the store, I saw that the buffer is retained in the buffer tube like it is in all other ARs that I've seen. Now my bolt carrier does not have a groove cut out in it for the buffer retainer like the three bolt carriers pictured below have. (left part of the picture, horizontal groove) Here a picture of my bolt carrier, buffer tube threads, and buffer itself. The carrier bottomed out on the buffer tube and expanded the very front of it which caused the top of the ring on the lower receiver to crack. I tried repairing it with some epoxy seeing as it's just carbon, but that failed to hold. It cracked as soon as I started threading in the buffer tube. I assume I'm going to need a new bolt carrier also, is there any other problems I will come across besides the carrier?

Charlie Gilmour loses jail term appeal
The son of Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour has lost his appeal against his jail sentence for a drink and drug-fuelled rampage at a protest against increased student fees.
Charlie Gilmour, a 21-year-old history student at the University of Cambridge, was jailed for 16 months in July after admitting violent disorder at the demonstration last December.
His challenge was thrown out by judges yesterday at the Court of Appeal. Lord Justice Hughes said Gilmour had been "over-excited and out of control", and that his sentence was a "penalty which properly met the facts of this case".
It "correctly took account both of the defendant's serious and dangerous acts in this inflammatory context and of his normal character".
His parents, Dave Gilmour and the writer Polly…

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by growup, Jul 4, 2010.
could someone tell where i could get galaxy s in delhi
if it cant be obtained in the shops etc, then find someone on ebay selling one who ships internationally
1.) It would have been better had you written the title something like "where to get Galaxy S in Delhi" instead of just "Galaxy S". No good forum manners I shall say.
2.) Having said that my friend who also stays in New Delhi wanted a galaxy S for herself and it seems that its out of stock so she has booked it.
Though I find it strange that its out of stock. Few months back when I bought it it was lying in almost every other shop!
Looks like I'm not the only one who answers 6 month old threads
Well Infact you are! I opened the thread as it was on 1st page because it was bumped. Had a casual look at your post and it mentioned "today" so I thought it is a recent thread. I should have checked hte OP's post date but I didnt hope that so many old threads would have been bumped.
Ah what the hell. It's Christmas.
i know i know! my bad!

Voluntary Carbon Markets: How can they Serve Climate Policies?
In this paper, we aim to examine how voluntary carbon markets can provide a valuable contribution to strengthening domestic and international climate policies. Voluntary markets are defined as small and unregulated segments of an established carbon market that are driven by voluntary offsetting of GHG emissions. Ce document vise à examiner comment les marchés volontaires du carbone peuvent contribuer utilement à renforcer les politiques climatiques nationales et internationales. Il s'agit de petits segments non réglementés d'un marché du carbone bien établi qui reposent sur la compensation volontaire des émissions de GES.

Reading MusingsCategories Christianity, Nonfiction, Novels
Out of Sorts is my first read by blogger Sarah Bessey. The book details her efforts to reconcile the different parts of her experiences with church. Though she does not go into detail about the kinds of hurts she has sustained, we gather that there have been some; she also discusses various questions over the years that haven't been completely answered. As with other reviews lately, this one comes several weeks after reading the book. When I first finished it, I might have felt more…Continue Reading "Reading Musings"

Africa is a massive continent and contains many diverse cultures, so there is no single way African people live. Some Africans live middle-class lives in modern cities, while others follow traditional tribal lifestyles. Some suffer from violence and poverty.Continue Reading
As of 2015, Africa consists of 54 countries, each with a unique culture. It is home to over one billion people, 3,000 ethnic groups and 2,000 languages. This means that people in one part of Africa may live very differently from those in another region.
Although the rest of the world often considers Africans to be living in poverty, this is only true in some rural areas and war-torn regions. Rural farmers often live very poorly and rely on subsistence farming and hunting. Some tribes, such as the Maasai, intentionally try to retain a traditional lifestyle.
People who live in cities in peaceful countries often have a similar standard of living to those in North America. They may be doctors, lawyers, cashiers, accountants or janitors or work in creative fields, such as advertising and music production. Africa is home to many religions, including Islam, Christianity and indigenous faiths.
Many African people use modern technology. Internet access is common in cities and larger towns. Mobile phones are popular even in impoverished areas and with traditional tribes. Rural farmers also often use scraps of other technology to create things like generators, wind turbines and radios.Learn more about Cultures & Traditions

Ad description
The Jero Plays By Wole Soyinka
The Jero Plays by Wole Soyinka consist of two short plays re-released as a collection in 1973. The Trials of Brother Jero first came out in 1964, while Jeroâs Metamorphosis was published two years later in 1966. Both plays satirize Christianity and religious hypocrisy, particularly, the unquestioning devotion that many converts display towards their spiritual leaders, often exposing themselves to manipulation in the process.
As the title suggests, The Trials of Brother Jero is about a charlatan preacher, Brother Jero. Brother Jero is a cunning beach diviner who woos customers (penitents) to his church by using Christian superstition for his own salvation. For him, the church is a business. He says:
 âI am glad I got here before any customers-I mean worshipers.. l always get a feeling every morning that am a shopkeeper waiting for customers.â
Brother Jero is suave while his followers are gullible. He lures people to his church by promising them material gains and promotions through prayer. Chume his assistant often seeks for permission to beat his arrogant wife Amope but Brother Jero disagrees:
â I keep my followers dissatisfied because if they are satisfied, they wonât come again..â

In the 1997 World Series, Cleveland won games two, four, and six by 5, 7, and 3 points respectively. Florida won games one, three, five, and seven by 3, 3, 1, and 1 points respectively. Florida appropriately won the Series because they won more games than Cleveland, even though Cleveland outscored Florida by 44 to 37 overall. Games and elections have rules, and no sensible person would argue with an outcome that follows the rules.
Unfortunately, liberals are neither sensible nor decent; they want the rules rewritten after the fact. I expect them to riot if they win the popular vote but lose the election (they'll riot over any type of loss, but the popular vote excuse will be like the trashy movie in Libya, their justification for the violence that thugs initiate simply because they are thugs). Conversely, if they lose the popular vote but win the election, the split outcome will not concern them at all - hypocrites. Personally, I find the popular vote an interesting footnote to history, but I do not want that statistic considered at all in deciding the election.

ENGLAND'S game plan to claim an historic series victory over Pakistan this winter will be based on the bowling art made famous by the home side's pacemen.
|Karachi Kid: England pace bowler Darren Gough goes to work in the nets
One look at the shiny, concrete-looking pitch being prepared at the National Stadium in Karachi yesterday convinced the tourists they will need to compete with guile and cunning rather than all-out pace if they are to succeed in the three-Test series starting next month.
Instead of racing in and unsettling batsmen with hostility, as they did with the West Indies last summer, England will rely on reverse swing developed in Pakistan by Waqar Younis and Wasim Akram.
But after years of watching the pair destroy England by making the old ball, which traditionally offered little assistance to the bowler, swing unexpectedly, England believe they finally have a pair of seam bowlers capable of emulating their forthcoming rivals in Darren Gough and Craig White.
The Yorkshiremen learnt the skill by studying Wasim and Waqar initially in 1992, when they toured England and guided their country to a 2-1 series victory. Other opportunities arose during the World Cup staged in Pakistan four years ago, and in country cricket.
"I've picked it up from watching Wasim and Waqar," Gough said. "I'm very similar to Waqar in the way I bowl and if I know it's reversing then I change my action slightly and do things differently with my feet to get a bigger angle on the reverse.
"If it starts reversing out here it's going to help the bowlers, and if it doesn't then it's going to be a long winter on pitches like this one."
The desire to learn how to bowl in alien conditions is complicated because no senior England team have used a red ball in Pakistan since the infamous 1987 tour. Their three visits since - the World Cup and two trips to Lahore for training camps - have all been for one-day cricket.
Gough admitted: "I've not been out here and played with a red ball and until we start doing that and see what happens we are all very much in the unknown. I've been out three times and every time we've used white balls. It's alien to almost all of us because we don't know what the pitches are going to do."
White, meanwhile, is the only senior bowler to have experienced first-class cricket in this region having toured Pakistan with the A team in 1996 under Nasser Hussain's captaincy.
He confirmed that the red ball reversed then and is convinced that the same tactic, and England's ability to produce it, will be the main factor in their success or failure over the next two months.
"The ball will probably only do something for the first hour and then it won't do much until it reverses later on," White said. "That is going to be the key - try and strike with the new ball and then try and come back again with the old ball."

Navi Mumbai, India (PressExposure) March 02, 2009 -- Delivery Mechanisms for Large Molecule Drugs Successes and failures of leading technologies and key drivers for market success( [http://www.bharatbook.com/Market-Research-Reports/Delivery-Mechanisms-for-Large-Molecule-Drugs-Successes-and-failures-of-leading-technologies-and-key-drivers-for-market-success.html] ) report provide the information about essential aspects of market, forecast, SWOT analysis and technologies in drug delivery technologies market.
Emerging drug delivery technologies aim to improve measures of safety, efficacy, convenience and compliance in both new and existing drug candidates and products. For currently marketed products, reformulations with new delivery technologies will extend the period of patent protection. New formulas will be key to boosting sales volume of large molecule products in chronic diseases where patient compliance surrounding dosing strategies and ease of administration are limitations on market growth. In R&D pipelines, novel applications of delivery technologies will expose new methods to reformulate failed or discontinued drugs and mask their unfavorable effects, expanding the market of potential drug candidates.
âDelivery Mechanisms for Large Molecule Drugsâ is a new report that examines the future of the drug delivery technologies market, and the short, mid, and long-term growth dynamics which will underpin investment decisions. This report will measure the performance of leading drug delivery technologies applied within clinical R&D pipelines and identify when specific therapy area populations are set to benefit from emerging innovations. The market success of new technologies is forecast by their ability to fulfill unmet medical need, the maturity of the technology in clinical application, and the level of commercial interest and investment landscape.
Key Findings Nanotechnology will have the greatest impact on the drug delivery market. However, the immaturity of the technology is likely to delay marketed presence over the next 7-10 years.
Antibody fragmentation and PEGylation technologies are the leading targeted large molecule particle engineering formulas with marketed drug product presence. However, antibody fragments have suffered 33 candidate failures compared with 12 PEGylated products.
Active transdermal technologies have generated the greatest number of technologies and devices amongst large molecule delivery innovations, with 16 clinical and 8 preclinical drug/device combination products and 49 stand-alone devices.
Electronic delivery is set to have the greatest impact upon the device industry. Electronic device control is more advanced within the field of pulmonary delivery than transdermal delivery, with the average pulmonary-based product in early clinical phase I compared to late-stage preclinical investigation for transdermal. There are, however, 25 transmembrane electroporation technologies currently being developed, in comparison to 12 for electronic active pulmonary delivery. Use this report to...
⢠Understand the drivers of new delivery platform developments with this reportâs analysis of therapy area growth drivers, clinical development spend and unmet clinical need. ⢠Identify the risks and opportunities associated with emerging delivery technologies by measuring the risk potential and maturity of innovative platforms. ⢠Evaluate the latest developments in systemic targeting technologies by using this reportâs analysis of innovations and pipeline progress for the latest active and passive targeting techniques. ⢠Discover which technologies have the greatest potential within large molecule product markets in the future with this reportâs comparative analysis of growth metrics for leading platforms and an evaluation of their established clinical drug application. ⢠Assess recent innovations in pulmonary delivery technologies and needle-free transdermal delivery with this reportâs analysis of clinical and preclinical developments and commercial potential. Explore issues including...
High failure rates for new technologies. The high failure rates of drugs to which pioneering delivery techniques have been applied have made investors cautious. Unknown clinical safety and efficacy profiles have made it harder to determine appropriate parameters for success in clinical application. Immaturity of technologies. Many of the technology platforms profiled in this report are in the early stages of application to clinical drug candidates. Those that have achieved success in marketed drug candidates already have ânext generationâ alternatives in technology pipelines.
Unknown clinical pharmacokinetics. Many of these platforms remain in such an immature stage that they have yet to be applied to drug candidates. In vivo experimental use in drug candidates can never accurately predict success once a technology has reached maturity. Even for those technologies with established use in R&D pipelines, long-term clinical efficacy remains unknown.
Regulation of the new technologies. While the clinical performance of new particle engineered drug molecules or active delivery devices remain unknown, regulatory bodies only have existing data-measure demands on which to benchmark their expectations. This framework will be shifted in line with emerging clinical performance datasets. Discover...
⢠Which delivery technologies will have the greatest impact on the large molecule market in the short, mid, and long-term? ⢠How mature are the different delivery technologies and what is their pipeline presence in terms of application to R&D drugs? ⢠Will particle engineering technologies drive injectable formulas to dominate the market? ⢠Which therapy areas will benefit most from growth in the different technologies? ⢠How can the risk-profiles associated with clinical use be most effectively minimized? ⢠What are the leading novel platforms? ⢠Who are the targets for out-licensing and co-development of platforms for clinical use? ⢠What are the leading technology platforms within different classifications and how have they achieved their growth?

Calm vertical strokes will certainly stay clear of 'splatter' and should be finished off with parallel motions in one direction. It assists to picture the surface area divided right into locations about 1m square as well as work methodically over the whole location. To make painting ceilings a little simpler, attach a lengthy deal with expansion to your paint roller. If the setup is to be evaluated, the examiner can inform you just what serves.
Renovate that old claw foot bath tub. You could make the surface appear like new with specially designed items from the residence improvement store. Always remember to grab a modern-day brass component to change the old. You can even get a matching brass ring to put on hold a shower drape from the ceiling and tin ceiling tiles
Any individual needs a little suggestions in house enhancement, even if you are a professional. There are simply those tasks that you might not be 100% certain of, or strategies that you don't know around. If this holds true, fantastic advice can be just a click away. Begin with this short article and also learn some wonderful ideas regarding home-improvement today.
Set up ceiling followers to disperse heat as well as cooling down better throughout your house. During the light periods, ceiling followers could supply all the air conditioning you need. Throughout the chillier cold weather, your ceiling followers can spread out the cozy air from your furnace quicker, reducing expensive heating prices.
Expanding your storage space options might be the ideal option for your following home enhancement project. Even small tasks like these will provide you a location to put playthings, hats, or silverware.
If you have the money after that you need to try and add a master collection to your house. While having a great huge bedroom is wonderful it will enormously help throughout resale if the bedroom location consists of a bathroom and/or a resting area. The majority of customers tend to favor homes that have master suites.
Keep tabs on just how much you spend on your home renovations. It is really very easy to nickel and also cent yourself with tiny information and not recognize what does it cost. you have actually amounted to. A straightforward spread sheet or budgeting device will certainly help you track all this info. It will certainly be much easier at tax time too, to be able to get all the reductions you deserve.

(BPT) - Buying your first home is comparable to the first time you ride a bike. You can learn how it works from your parents and observe it from a distance, but you really won't know the ins and outs until you sit down on the bicycle and start riding.
Like most beginners, first-time homebuyers will likely make a few mistakes as they initially go through the home-buying process in the upcoming year. Here are five mistakes first-time homebuyers often make, and how to best avoid them.
1. Waiting too long to make an offer
One of the biggest mistakes first-time homebuyers will make in 2017 is waiting too long to get into the real estate market, according to Jay Carr, a senior loan advisor for RPM Mortgage in Newport Beach, California. Because the rates look like they're going to continually increase over the year, buyers should get in as early as they can to avoid paying more later on.
2. Trying too hard to get less than the asking price
Many first-time buyers are tech-savvy and comfortable researching homes on their own. Overall, these are positive traits in a buyer. However, because these buyers are typically self-sufficient when it comes to purchases, they often think they know best when it comes to what price they want to offer on a house.
"Buyers rely too much on what they see on the internet instead of the good advice of what they would hear from a real estate agent," Carr says.
While sometimes it pays off to be bold in an offer, often the buyers negotiate themselves out of a deal. Pay attention to your real estate agent, who is a seasoned professional, when it comes to putting in an offer so you don't offend the seller and lose the house you want.
3. Not exploring all your financing options
Carr says many first-time buyers have grown up thinking they need to save up for a 20 percent down payment before they can enter the housing market. While it is always great to have as much money to put down as possible, many new options are available.
One option is a home ownership investment such as the Unison HomeBuyer program, which typically provides up to half of the down payment you need. The money is an investment in the home, not a loan, so there are no interest charges or monthly payments. This new type of financing — which works in combination with a traditional 30-year mortgage — can offer greater flexibility and control to the home buyer. It allows you to cut the time needed to save for a down payment in half, lower your monthly payments and avoid mortgage insurance, or increase your purchasing power so you can buy the home you want.
4. Wanting the dream house right away
Everyone has a picture in their minds of what their first home will look like. Whether you envisioned a craftsman bungalow near all your favorite bars and restaurants or a classic ranch-style home with tons of land and no neighbors, chances are you're going to have to trade up to that dream home from your first starter home.
"If you really like the house, you probably can't afford it. If you think the house is just kind of below what you want it's probably right in your price range. Get in the market rather than wait to get the dream house," Carr says.
Carr advises those in the hunt for their dream home to focus on becoming homeowners now and to wait on their dream home until they have built up equity and have higher incomes in the future.
5. Not having your own representation
Another mistake a first-time homebuyer can make is not having their own representation (meaning they use the seller's agent as their own buyer's agent). While this is not always a bad situation, Carr urges buyers to select a trustworthy real estate agent who will look after their best interests.
Are you a first-time homebuyer? Avoid these common mistakes when shopping for a home.
1. Don't wait too long to make an offer. Rates are expected to rise in 2017, which could result in you paying more over the long run.
2. Don't offer far less than the asking price. If you want the home, don't be unrealistic with the seller.
3. Focus on getting a home that suits your current needs. The dream home can be purchased later in life, when you have more equity and a higher income.
4. Another common mistake is not being aware of all financing options such as a home ownership investment like the Unison HomeBuyer program, which can match a homebuyer's down payment funds, resulting in a lower monthly payment or greater purchasing power.
5. Choose a competent real estate agent to represent you.

"Macroeconomic outlook on Romania are better than we expected early November, due to a stronger external demand. We expect the economy to contract 7% this year and to return in the positive territory next year, at an annual growth rate of 1.3%", said Franks in a release of the institution.
The caretaker Minister of Finance, Gheorghe Pogea said the government and International Monetary Fund have updated their budget and economic forecasts, lifting growth projections from 0.5% to 1.3% to 538.9 billion lei.
The head of IMF mission stressed that the preliminary data on budget suggest that the 7.3% deficit target could be met, if the government keeps public spending under tight control for the remainder of the year.
"This performance is very encouraging, given the political deadlock and difficult economic conditions. Markets have stabilized, despite the recent political uncertainties, and we don't expect any major problem in closing the budget deficit over the next few months", Franks added.
The IMF, European Commission and the Romanian government have agreed on the content of the budget draft in 2010.

Victory Motorcycles "Vegas 8-Ball" Review Oct 7, 2016 by Cedric (Driver Weekly)
The Victory Vegas 8-Ball is a cruising motorcycle that delivers freedom and fun. While not as well-known as competitors from Harley-Davidson, Victory was founded in 1998 to build modern baggers, cruisers, and tourers with powerful engines and traditional attention to engineering and style. This motorcycle is a sleek cruiser with custom styling perfect for the Vegas Strip and the open road.
Basic Design
The eye-catching Vegas 8-Ball is designed for those who like to ride solo. "Stripped-down" to put as little as possible between the rider and the road, it has a sleek seat that is just 25.2 inches high and a flowing line towards from the pipes to the handlebars. Each piece is blacked out to form a color-matched frame with a sinister style. The headlight pod is also blacked out, and you get a single gauge that is multifunctional and covered in chrome. The narrow-style front fender is contrasted by the slightly bobbed rear fender that shows off the cast-aluminum wheels. The standard 8-Ball doesn't come with weather protection or storage, but you can always add either in the form of accessories.
Who Will Love It
Those who enjoy cruisers will appreciate everything the Vegas 8-Ball has to offer. If you like longer trips, however, you will wish that there were pegs that you could stand on since the ones on this motorcycle are too far forward. Those who prefer sports bikes are also likely to have trouble adjusting to the comfortable ride. Of course, you can easily adapt to the 8-Ball over time. Thanks to the engine, you can ride it assertively.
On the Road
Those that take the Vegas 8-Ball on the road love the feeling. The foot controls are slightly forward, and the seat is low enough to give you a comfortable position. You won't be as stretched out as in some other cruisers as the low seat is combined with a more assertive posture as your knees are bent. The motorcycle is powered by the 1.7-liter "Freedom" V-Twin engine that is cooled by both oil and air and manufactured by Victory. It gives you more than 100 pound-feet of torque so you can easily move the 655-pound bike quickly. With 4.5 gallons in the tank, you can stay on the open road for hours. The six-speed manual gearbox puts you in control. The motorcycle is very forgiving, and the clutch pull is only slightly stiff. The bike handles just as most drivers would expect from a cruiser. The rear shock can travel three inches and features a pre-load adjustment, so you will still want to be careful around bumps. The mufflers are set high, so you don't have to worry about them interfering with the driving experience or clearance. Assertive, nimble, and powerful, the Vegas 8-Ball is one fun ride.
Victory is an impressive addition to the motorcycling landscape. We would be remiss if we didn't mention that the 8-Ball is also slightly more affordable than the competition, starting at $12,999, making the Vegas 8-Ball a strong contender for your next cruiser.

Is your company prepared should an investigator from the Labor Department's Wage and Hour Division (WHD) come knocking on your door? Maintaining pristine records under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) isn't enough. PLA went to an expert in the field, Morris Jennings, to help employers get better prepared and avoid blunders. Jennings, an Austin-based wage and hour consultant (www.flsafmla.com), is a former investigator for the WHD.
What Yout Should Do Now
"Investigators are expected to uncover any violations that are substantial, but they do not look under every rock," said Jennings. "Investigators are particularly inquisitive about exemption classifications, overtime pay calculations, time records, and dubious contractor determinations." Employers should ensure that:
- any claimed exemptions are valid,
- the overtime calculation methodology is proper,
- contractors are not actually employees under WHD rules, and
- rec...(register to read more)

Absolute Auto Body Everett
Review for Absolute Auto Body Everett
Travis G. on 04/30/2016
Travis said he had a flat tire after the work was done. The door does not stick and he does not see any discoloration with the paint. He was never given a promise of time. They gave him a rough ball park and it took a little longer than he thought but he was okay with it. The lady representative in the office was great. His vehicle was returned much cleaner than how he left it with the business.
