TMW Announces Integration of RMIS Compliance Management Services
Tuesday May, 15 2018
TMW, a Trimble brand and leading provider of software, business intelligence and related solutions to the North American transportation industry, announced a new step in its continued relationship with Registry Monitoring Insurance Services (RMIS®), a leading provider of carrier onboarding and insurance monitoring services. RMIS's robust compliance management services and technologies will now be integrated into TMW's popular TMW.Suite, TMW's flagship Transportation Management System (TMS) for asset-based, asset-light and freight brokerage transportation service providers, expanding the software's capabilities.
TMW clients will be able to monitor carrier insurance information directly from a module that is available to purchase within TMW.Suite, helping clients save time and money on costly manual compliance management. The module will be available to TMW clients who are also RMIS customers. The updated integration reflects TMW's mission to centralize every aspect of the end user's day-to-day workflow, delivering solutions to its clients' business challenges in one robust software suite.
RMIS tracks 95 percent of today's active motor carriers in the transportation industry, which means TMW.Suite users will have access to the majority of Certificates of Insurance on file for the carriers they are looking to hire. If a certificate for a given trucking company is unavailable, RMIS has the resources to obtain it quickly. And by entering company-specific regulations into the system, users can ensure that carriers are insured in a way that specifically lines up with their business rules.
"This new capability within TMW.Suite will make it easier for our customers to obtain access to carrier insurance status," said Scott Vanselous, TMW's Executive Vice President, Marketing & Strategy. "It will help them save time and money by eliminating a longstanding manual compliance management process."
"Both TMW and RMIS place a high premium on streamlining complex processes for our customers," said Peter Lunenfeld, Executive Vice President of RMIS. "We both offer our users a way to do more with less. By integrating RMIS's compliance monitoring services into the already formidable TMW.Suite, we're confident that our customers will be able to centralize their operations to an unprecedented degree."
In addition to the new functionality offered by RMIS, TMW has added the Operating Status field to the Carrier Comprehensive Safety Analysis (CSA) Inquiry process. RMIS will supply the Department of Transportation (DOT) operating status values in this field and will support the Electronic Logging Device (ELD) operating status from DOT as those changes are published.
When receiving an update from RMIS regarding an Out of Service notification for a carrier, expirations will be logged for the Carrier so that they are no longer available in other parts of TMW.Suite to plan loads/trips. This functionality is available from both the Carrier CSA Inquiry menu as well as the Carrier Profile.
Tabs in the Carrier CSA Profile window are now color coded as information is returned from RMIS. For example, if a document for the Carrier is available through the service, the Document tab will now highlight in green, identifying to the user that there is data available for review.
About RMIS®
Since 1996, RMIS has specialized in Insurance Monitoring and Compliance Services for the transportation industry, property, facility management, and other industries. RMIS collects and monitors Certificate of Insurance information, manages compliance rule sets for its clients, and offers customized tools to significantly reduce risk, cut costs, eliminate paperwork, and automate the registration and compliance process. RMIS's advanced technology coupled with live customer service gives clients peace of mind knowing they can utilize properly insured carriers who meet all their unique requirements.

The Library
I take my camera to the library all the time trying to get decent pictures. But never have until now. Wow, the lens does make a lot of difference! (And maybe, just maybe, I'm learning how to use my camera a bit better.) For the kick-off, the kids sat in the story time room eating popcorn while watching Charlotte's Web. Jayce, who has NEVER sat through a single 25 minute story time in his life actually sat for over 30 minutes watching the movie. Maybe I should take popcorn with us to story time this summer!
After that, we went outside to the Reading Garden. I've always loved this place. I have a picture of Jaina at age 2 sitting on a bench outside taken with my film camera and true black and white film. Its my favorite picture.
Then we came inside to see the new reading area in the children's section. They removed the ugly old plastic couches and replaced it with "book" cushions. Too cute!
Last, we had to go play on the reading train. You are supposed to take books on it to read, but Jayce likes to pretend he's going somewhere on the train. Did you read that? He likes to pretend :) It may have taken him 4 years to understand what "pretend" means, but boy, once he gets it, he gets it!
3 comments:
Wow, that's some library! What great shots. My kids would actually want to go to the library, if they had a library like that to go to!ReplyDelete
I didn't realize Jaina's school ended already, glad your kids are having a nice summer.
I can see your enjoying that 50 lens. I had such a hard time at the class party the other day, I had to switch lenses. Then the flash ruined some shots...
I couldn't get a wide enough angle to get the whole class into pictures. It was so frustrating. I need to learn how to compose photo stitching. That's my goal this summer.
AHH I love the library and summer reading programs. Can you imagine actually only reading 10 books to your kid in 10 weeks?? that is funny.ReplyDelete
i always wish for good pics from the library too, but have yet to get any i really like. maybe i should keep trying :) yours look great.
What books does Jaina enjoy? How about Jayce? Coleman doesn't always have a choice as I want to "make" him love the books I do! like my favorites by Keiko Kaza! anyway...happy summer!!
One cool thing about the summer reading program here is that the "goal" is 800 pages, 8 books, or 800 minutes of reading - you get to choose the goal you want. (I'm making both girls do 800 pages - there's not as many words on Kelsey's pages and I'm reading them to her.) Then once you reach the goal, you can go back and do it again and again for more prizes! Exciting, huh?ReplyDelete

Tyrone McKenna knows a big performance at the Devenish Complex in Belfast on Saturday night could get him noticed.
The slick southpaw - who will be having his eighth professional - has gone about his business with a touch of class, but he knows that he has to start catching the eye of the paying public.
"I am trying to get my name out there and get more supporters and I will do that by putting on big performances.
"You want to do something on the night that will catch the fans eye and hopefully people notice you," he added.
McKenna faces Sylwester Walczak on Saturday night and he hopes the Polish fighter has come to fight and not survive.
"When people come forward and come for a fight, I can show case my talents.
"I want fights and I offered Belfast's Matt Wilton a fight - but he is not training at the minute. I wanted a fight against a local - a local derby.
"Everyone loves a auld derby and I would love a fight like that.
"And I would love to start fighting boys from England and well known names.
"My aim is to get into the British top ten as soon as possible and to do that I have to beat Walczak on Saturday night," he added.
Dee Walsh headlines the show against Patryk Litkiewicz who boasts a 16-7 record with 10 wins by KO.
Paul Hyland faces Ivans Levickis, James Tennyson tackles Krystof Rogowski, and James Fryers looks to tame another puncher in Sergejs Logins.

The plant nursery at the Department of Agriculture has been placed under quarantine and plant sales suspended until further notice.
Laboratory confirmation was made on 3 May that Pink Hibiscus Mealybug was found on one hibiscus plant at its Lower Valley nursery.
In keeping with a policy of zero tolerance for PHM in nurseries, the department has implemented strict procedures to secure the site and eradicate PHM from within the area.
Acting on its preliminary identification of the pest, the Department immediately implemented its protocols for dealing with infestations in nurseries, commencing with the pruning, double bagging and removal of the infested material to the landfill for destruction, states a press release.
Following the removal of the infested plant material the Department's spray team entered the nursery and applied a chemical treatment on all the plants designed to target any other mealybugs present. This chemical treatment will be repeated in 10 days after which the nursery will undergo another full inspection.
If no PHM is found at that time, normal pest control and maintenance programs are resumed, periodic monitoring continues and the nursery remains quarantined for a further 30 days. A thorough inspection is carried out at the end of this 30 day period and once it's determined the nursery is still PHM free it will be released from quarantine.
'Nurseries are zero-tolerance areas, which must be kept free of the pest. It is only in these controlled environments where chemical treatments are effective and recommended to eliminate the pest. In a backyard, landscape or field settings the recommended and most effective strategy is biological control, where a parasitoid wasp is used to reduce the PHM population to a level where it has no significant impact on the plants,' said Department of Agriculture spokesman Brian Crichlow.
'Given the many ways that PHM can spread, occasional outbreaks in nurseries are not unexpected and we're adhering to the protocols that were adopted to cover such an incident following PHM's arrival on the island in June 2006.'
As with any nursery, the government's nursery will be monitored and inspected by the Department's Agriculture Health Inspection Services to ensure rigorous adherence to the protocols, and determine that the pest is eradicated before the nursery's quarantine is removed.
In general the Department reports that the National PHM control strategy continues to be functioning effectively with many of the original infested sites now fully recovered.
The Department, however, continues to encourage the public to remain vigilant, follow the recommended practices, and report any new sightings to the Department's PHM Hotline at !-800-534-BUGS (2847), as periodic flare-ups are still being experienced as the pest moves into new areas before the wasp population increases to control it.

Check out our Forum Rules. Lets keep this forum an enjoyable place to visit.
So excited! It's a huge step up for me, as the last concerto I have been practicing on was Seitz's Student's concerto 2 - was stuck on it for about half a year - my teacher just wouldn't let me move on! and yesterday it finally happened - I moved on 🙂
Was sure that the shifting thing would be hellish to overcome, but at least for now it comes to me pretty naturally, maybe because I have been working on getting very familiar with the 3rd position for the past 6 months or so..
And it's so fun to play and the music is so beautiful, such a joy!
@Uzi - so beautiful. and sooooo gets stuck in your head, that I will need a scalpel to take it out.. still worth it though 🙂
@pky - I can say that what I have gone through so far in Vivaldi's, which is the first page of the 1st movement, is in fact a bit easier than, lets say, the last page of Seitz. It does however require a new set of skills, such as the shifting, which Seitz doesn't. Also, my teacher told me to brace myself because the 3rd part is going to be hell 🙂

Druids v Abergavenny (Away) 22 Feb 2014
24-34 Loss
Valiant effort from Druids
In only their third game of 2014 Monmouth Druids made the short journey to Abergavenny RFC. The appalling weather on the back of the Autumn internationals has meant a mid season break for rugby enthusiasts.
The Druids squad looked unusual as several established players, including Captain Nick Phillips were conspicuous by their absence. Reasons being first team call ups, injury, a car beakdown and unavailability. Of particular interest was in the front row where the props were two players who were making their debuts for the club.
Abergavenny on the other hand seemed reinforced by players of recent first team experience, particularly behind the scrum.
Shortly after the kick off, the Druids scored a try which they will be proud of for the season. Starting in their 22 metre area, Centre Dan Williams using his strength, burst through a couple of tackles and surged upfield into the Abergavenny half. Then followed about twenty rucks, each won skilfully and patiently by the Druids attackers. This play ended with Outside Half Cameron Gibson scuttling under the home posts. Surprise kicker Second Row Jack Howells converted and he contributed more later.
The diligent referee awarded penalty kicks to both sides making the score 10-6 in the Druids favour. Jack Howells kicked the Druids points.
Abergavenny raised their game and scored two tries based on superiority at the scrum. Both tries were converted by their scrum half to give the home side a lead of 20-10 at half time.
After the interval Abergavenny continued their fine form by scoring two more tries from their backs. Both were converted to push the game beyond winning for the Druids.
The visitors were not finished as Flanker Gareth Morgan burst over from a lineout and one other from Cameron Gibson. This followed a move again from inside the Druids territory. Fine support play saw Gibson race in from 20 metres. Both tries were improved by Jack Howells to make the final score 34-24.
In the loose, the Druids had the edge but in the scrum the Abergavenny pack had the better and their pace behind was crucial. Cameron Gibson looked a runner with promise, Back Row Dan Ansty, Mike Price and Gareth Morgan played their hearts out and what about surprise kicker Jack Howells.
A mention to for Matt Price and Tom Hurst substitute props-they did well playing out of position. A great all round team performance giving the difficulties the Druids faced.
Tries: C.Gibson (2), G.Morgan
Conv: J.Howells (3)
Pen: J.Howells

The most important person in my life is the one I married. The success of my dream takes second place to her.
I'll bet you are a lot like me. You get VERY pumped about your dream. You want to accomplish so much and build an amazing life of freedom! Good for you!!
Many of you have a spouse or significant other that you love dearly.
I spend a significant amount of time working on my dream. You can see information about my schedule (and tips for creating yours) by checking out my post The Importance of a Schedule. That time is set aside for building a dream business. My wife is behind me 100%! She respects me using the time to create the life we want to enjoy together. But that wasn't automatic, we had to take some very specific actions.
Many of you have a spouse or significant other that you love dearly. (Note that for the rest of this post when I say "spouse," I mean spouse or SO. Thanks for understanding :-)). He or she means the world to you. Part of your dream life includes spending as much time as possible with the one you love most. Your dream is important to you so let's talk about relating it to your spouse.
5 Tips for Talking with Your Spouse about Your Dream
- Remember what's most important – You love your spouse more than anyone or anything else. That "anything else" includes your dream. Never give your spouse the impression that they are less important than your dream or business. If you do, then you may end up with your dream…but no spouse.
- Enlist your spouse's support – My lovely bride doesn't question me when I spend money or time on my dream… because it's our dream. She knows the point is to help as many other people as possible realize their goal of becoming entrepreneurs and she loves helping people. She also appreciates the fact that wonderful changes in our lives occur as a result of helping others. Show your spouse the big vision and how it benefits everyone involved, including the two of you.
- Support your spouse's dream – Recently my wife started painting again. She took a class with a friend and was hooked. She gets great joy in the creative process and paints beautifully. In fact, our son and his new wife asked for an original to hang in their new apartment. Her painting isn't free, just like my dream isn't free. But if it's important to her, then it's important to me. Your spouse has a dream too! Find out that dream and support it with the same passion as your own.
- Be realistic – I know you want your dream to happen tomorrow. But businesses take time to build. Be careful not to give your spouse unrealistic expectations as to when you will have your dream life. Set goals and go for them, but make sure they are achievable within your timescale.
- Communicate frequently – If my wife isn't up to speed on my schedule, it makes it difficult for her to set plans. She knows pretty much my schedule, but if something unusual comes up that may conflict with our time together, I need to let her know. This is one I'm still working on. Keep your spouse informed and you'll have a happier home.
The most important person in my life is the one I married. The success of my dream takes second place to her. But you CAN have your dream and a wonderful relationship, just be sure to do what it takes for both.

A Brunswick Speaks forum in August featured a spirited but good-natured North vs. South discussion between transplanted Yankees and Southern diehards. Hannelore Philipp had a unique view as she sat at the table.
She moved here from Germany.
There's also a South vs. North rivalry over there, she told me. It has to do with Bavarians and Prussians, with differences dating back at least to World War II.
But she was able to see that Brunswick County's two camps had far more in common than they had differences.
Philipp has led an interesting life shuttling between two continents. Now she's throwing herself into life in Brunswick County.
Philipp was born in 1941 and grew up in Bavaria, outside of Munich. Life was hard in postwar Germany.
"We had to struggle for food," she said. "There was not much money to go around. The cities had to be rebuilt."
They lived in Fuerstenfeldbruck near an air base, so her area was bombed during the war. But the location was a blessing afterward.
"When the Americans came, we lucked out," she said, because they were generous. She remembers receiving her first banana from an American serviceman and trying to eat it with the peel on.
Her mom divorced and remarried an American GI. She stayed with her grandparents in Germany for a time, but he adopted Philipp and her sister. They lived in France together before moving to Greenville, S.C., in 1960. She's been a Southerner off and on ever since.
Her first car was a 1955 Chevy (a classic!), and she and her friends enjoyed trips to Myrtle Beach.
She wanted to wear a bikini in the early 1960s, but she was afraid she'd be arrested.
"In France it was no big deal," she said.
She went to work with Liberty Life Insurance as a keypunch operator, and spent her career doing office and secretarial work.
A short-lived marriage to a disc jockey left her with a small child. She moved to Charlotte in 1964 and landed a job with the German company BASF, helping German-speaking executives.
She married a German man and had her second baby. They moved to Germany in 1971.
The independent bikini girl chafed at the marriage to a conservative, somewhat domineering husband. She wanted to go back to work, but he didn't like the idea.
"I was just missing something," she said, sounding like so many disaffected housewives of that era.
So she ditched the husband and went to work, first for the German military and then for a construction company. She saved enough to buy a house in Utting, on a lovely lakeside lot with mountains visible in the distance.
"That was my investment for the future here," she said. She missed the Southern United States, and in 2003 she retired and moved here.
She had always dreamed of retiring to the Myrtle Beach area, where she often vacationed. But when she began to look at houses, a real estate person showed her a house in Ocean Side Place, a subdivision near Calabash.
She's glad she settled north of the state line.
"It's more laid back here," she said. "I don't have to put up with all the excitement during summer."
Philipp may sound laid back, but she's not just puttering in the garden. She got a real estate license and is an active broker. She volunteers with the Calabash Fire Corps' Safety House, which demonstrates fire safety. She socializes at a German club at a Lutheran church, amused at the mix of German and English spoken at meetings. She's joining a newcomers club, and she attends events at Silver Coast Winery.
Her advice to fellow newcomers is to involve themselves in their new community.
To her mind, that's far better than becoming immersed in newcomer cliques, "griping about what's not the same as where you came from," she said.

If you can't beat them, join them, so she's starting a Pink Lives Matter campaign.
Following the backlash she received for her skin, which her critics said now looked "pink", Khanyi Mbau has decided to join them and make fun of herself. At first, she used her usual tactics, lashing out her haters, telling them she did not care what they said.
Now she has again taken to social media to ask South Africans to love and accept her as she is. She further offered her followers "pieces" of herself, sharing a photoshopped picture of Shoprite chicken thighs with her face on one of them.
"Pink lives matter too," she said.
South Africa love me as I am.. accept me as I am, here I give u pieces of me… #pinklivesmattertoo pic.twitter.com/GEj385JWyoLoading...
— KHANYI MBAU (@MbauReloaded) April 19, 2017
Her followers laughed at her humour, though some said they could not accept her "pieces", as they were not "Woolworths standard". Shoprite should be paying her for this brilliant marketing strategy, they said, as everyone who has seen this will think of her when they see the thighs at their stores.
Though some might also choose to refrain from buying a piece of Khanyi Mbau.
Either way, it's hilarious.

The transformation of a key area of Tyneside is set to continue following the £300,000 sale of two run-down cottages.
The Manorfields development scheme led to the creation of around 40 detached residential properties near Coach Lane in Benton. But the area has been blighted by the appearance of two semi-detached cottages at the entrance to the housing estate.
However the area is set for further improvement after Newcastle University, which owned the cottages, sold them to HRT Developments in a six-figure deal with help from chartered surveying firm Bradley Hall. Planners have granted HRT permission to demolish the cottages and build new detached homes in line with other properties at Manorfields.
Sean Archer, estates property manager at Newcastle University, said: "The two cottages were charming in their heyday and were occupied by members of staff and private tenants. However, they required modernising. It would cost around £60,000 to upgrade each one and for us that wasn't viable.
"The sale will help us to fund the development of a new residential building at the university's Longbenton Sports Ground – a property that will be occupied by the groundsman. It will also facilitate the creation of new homes that are more in keeping with the style of other properties at Manorfields.
"It was great to work with Bradley Hall and I was impressed with the way they led us smoothly through the sales process."
Bradley Hall, which operates across the commercial and residential property sectors, was tasked with marketing the cottages and advising Sean on the completion of the sale.
Neil Hart, director at Bradley Hall, said: "Together with the university we are proud to be involved in the regeneration of a key area of Tyneside. Benton benefits from a high catchment area, is handily situated near main transport routes and is home to the newly developed largest Sainsbury's in the North East.
"Manorfields has transformed the look of the area, which will be improved further when these cottages are demolished and replaced by sought-after, high quality new homes."
Bradley Hall, which is headquartered in Newcastle, offers a broad range of services from residential and commercial estate agency through to property management, investment, business sales and disposals.
It's the first time that the company has teamed up with Newcastle University, which has more than 130 residential and non-residential properties in its portfolio.

Morning of the Wedding Bridal Brunch April 25 2016, 0 Comments
Megan Walsh from Atomic Furnishing along with photographer Christina Foret put together a "Morning of the Wedding" photoshoot at Atomic Furnishing's mid-century modern furniture shop here in Asheville, NC. Megan asked if Bomisch's wares could also be part of the day, and I happily joined up to help create three styled shoots - Bohemian, Natural, and Modern. Atomic is renting out their space for bridal brunches, a place to get ready prior to the wedding and as a wedding photography venue. The shoot was to show the different styles that can be done in the space for these events. A few of my favorite shots from the day are included here but the full photoshoot along with styling tips from Megan are up on Apartment Therapy's blog - SO EXCITING! The day was filled with talented company, lots of creative ideas flowing, and all the brunch things one could want! We had a blast collaborating and the day turned out more dreamy that I could have imagined. To see the full photoshoot and Megan's tips on styling, go to Apartment Therapy's post here.

Singleton Class in Java
Java Singleton
- Singleton pattern restricts the instantiation of a class and ensures that only one instance of the class exists in the java virtual machine.
- The singleton class must provide a global access point to get the instance of the class.
To implement Singleton pattern, we have different approaches but all of them have following common concepts.
- Private constructor to restrict instantiation of the class from other classes.
- Private static variable of the same class that is the only instance of the class.
- Public static method that returns the instance of the class, this is the global access point for outer world to get the instance of the singleton class.
Below are the different types of singleton designs,
Eager initializationIn eager initialization, the instance of Singleton Class is created at the time of class loading, this is the easiest method to create a singleton class but it has a drawback that instance is created even though client application might not be using it.
package com.jithin88.singleton;public class EagerInitializedSingleton {private static final EagerInitializedSingleton instance = new EagerInitializedSingleton();//private constructor to avoid client applications to use constructorpublic static EagerInitializedSingleton getInstance(){private EagerInitializedSingleton(){} return instance; }}
Lazy Initialization
Lazy initialization method to implement Singleton pattern creates the instance in the global access method. Here is the sample code for creating Singleton class with this approach.
package com.jithin88.singleton;public class LazyInitializedSingleton {private static LazyInitializedSingleton instance;private LazyInitializedSingleton(){}public static LazyInitializedSingleton getInstance(){if(instance == null){ instance = new LazyInitializedSingleton(); }}return instance;}
The above implementation works fine incase of single threaded environment but when it comes to multithreaded systems, it can cause issues if multiple threads are inside the if loop at the same time. It will destroy the singleton pattern and both threads will get the different instances of singleton class. In next section, we will see different ways to create a thread-safe singleton class.
Thread Safe Singleton
The easier way to create a thread-safe singleton class is to make the global access method synchronized, so that only one thread can execute this method at a time. General implementation of this approach is like the below class.
package com.jithin88.singleton;public class ThreadSafeSingleton {private static ThreadSafeSingleton instance;private ThreadSafeSingleton(){}public static synchronized ThreadSafeSingleton getInstance(){if(instance == null){ instance = new ThreadSafeSingleton(); }}return instance; }
Above implementation works fine and provides thread-safety but it reduces the performance because of cost associated with the synchronized method, although we need it only for the first few threads who might create the separate instances . To avoid this extra overhead every time, double checked locking principle is used. In this approach, the synchronized block is used inside the if condition with an additional check to ensure that only one instance of singleton class is created.
Below code snippet provides the double checked locking implementation.
public static ThreadSafeSingleton getInstanceUsingDoubleLocking(){if(instance == null){if(instance == null){synchronized (ThreadSafeSingleton.class) {}instance = new ThreadSafeSingleton(); } } return instance;}
Bill Pugh Singleton Implementation
Prior to Java 5, java memory model had a lot of issues and above approaches used to fail in certain scenarios where too many threads try to get the instance of the Singleton class simultaneously. So Bill Pugh came up with a different approach to create the Singleton class using an inner static helper class. The Bill Pugh Singleton implementation goes like this;
package com.jithin88.singleton;public class BillPughSingleton {private BillPughSingleton(){}private static class SingletonHelper{private static final BillPughSingleton INSTANCE = new BillPughSingleton();} public static BillPughSingleton getInstance(){}return SingletonHelper.INSTANCE;}
Notice the private inner static class that contains the instance of the singleton class. When the singleton class is loaded, SingletonHelper class is not loaded into memory and only when someone calls the getInstance method, this class gets loaded and creates the Singleton class instance.
This is the most widely used approach for Singleton class as it doesn't require synchronization. I am using this approach in many of my projects and it's easy to understand and implement also.

CROSS VILLAGE — The Readmond, Friendship and Cross Village Fire and Rescue had an early morning this morning, battling a brush and woodfire just south of Cross Village along North Lake Shore Drive.
The fire crew was called to the scene at 3:30 a.m., and crews are still out dealing with hot spots created by the fire.
"We're still out six hours later," said Don Horn, chief of the Readmond, Friendship and Cross Village Fire and Rescue.
The fire affected 15.4 acres, and a power line taken down by a tree caused the fire.
"The snow we're getting right now will help," said Horn.
The Harbor Springs Area Fire Department, the Department of Natural Resources in Indian River, the Pellston Fire Department and the Emmet County Road Commission assisted with the fire.

Sequels are dangerous.
We all know this. Beverly Hills Cop–amazing. Beverly Hills Cop 2–still pretty great. Beverly Hills Cop 3… Let's not go there. Don't even get me started on the Matrix disasters. Sometimes it's better to leave well enough alone.
But even so, when a book really yanks my heart out and I feel like I have experienced something with those characters, I miss them when it's over. It's hard to give up that world. I have been known to change my style of dress erratically once I finish a book, trying to make the world of the story continue. Same with films. And audiobooks have even made me change my accent after a long drive. I really fall in.
So when I heard that Jojo Moyes was revisiting the world of Me Before You, I was optimistic. But cautiously so. I did want to know what happened to Louisa. I did want to know where everyone had ended up. Moyes is good with characters. I have wondered about most of those from her books, but Louisa from Me Before You was the one who ended her story at the beginning of a new one.
If you have not yet read Me Before You, this is where the spoilers start. (Go read it right now and come back):
I think one of the reasons this works as a sequel is that losing someone you love is as much about the time you knew them as it is about the time after they are gone.
When I was in college, one of my dearest friends drowned suddenly in an accident. He was a daredevil, much like Will's character was before his accident. He was a mountain biker who once biked through a Baltimore blizzard to come stay at my house because he was stir crazy. The day before he was meant to graduate college, after a number of days of rain, he took his dogs to walk around a large reservoir to get some air. Partway around, the banks gave way and he fell into the water. He wasn't a swimmer and the overflowing level pulled him under a rock. His dog tried to pull him out, but she wasn't strong enough.
I was twenty, and this was the first time I lost someone my own age. This was a friend I had talked with deeply and freely, much like Louisa did with Will. I was lucky, and there were other people who I felt safe sharing with, but there are parts of you that are hard to keep going without the friend that brings them out.
When I opened this book, I hoped it wouldn't be an easy story. That Lou wouldn't be married to a French man, living the good life, thinking kindly and distantly of Will. I just wouldn't buy it. And thankfully, this is not that book.
It's not perfect, but I still couldn't put it down. Moyes knows how to write characters that you care about. She doesn't coddle them, but she doesn't smack them so far down that they're unwilling to try anymore either. And in this way, reading her books helps me think differently about my own life.
I won't give any plot away from this book since there is really nothing I hate more than knowing the story of a book before reading it. But I will say that I think you'll be glad you read it, if you did. There are elements in it that weren't present in the first book. It isn't a rehashing. The previous book is a jumping off point for a new story. Would this book be as big a blockbuster on its own? I doubt it. But when you love characters so much, why wouldn't you want to visit with them again.
This was the perfect cozy winter read. I got up an hour early and read in bed in the morning to find out what happened next. It made me laugh and it did make me tear up. What more could I ask? Maybe that Jojo Moyes considers a sequel to this sequel? I'm willing to risk it. I think she can be trusted to keep the story on track.
And my friend? I still think about him all the time. When someone says a word he loved to use in a way that annoyed me, when I see something he would have loved. But still, like Lou, I'm grateful for the impact he had. And I can still imagine what he would have thought or done and it helps. Books like this are wonderful because they help, too.

I met Rachel a few months ago and we've become good friends since. Needless to say, I was honored, flattered, and super excited when she asked me if I would take her engagement pictures.

It was a gorgeous night with a beautiful sunset and a super sweet couple who were such troopers walking through burrs for a shot against a cool looking wall. Thanks for letting me be a part of your exciting day to come guys!

Health Insurance Critical Illness
While private health insurance might seem like an unnecessary expense when you're healthy, if you experience a serious illness or injury, having the right health insurance becomes absolutely essential.
Treatment for serious and chronic health conditions is usually available under Medicare, but unfortunately going through the public system often means a limited choice of care providers and potentially long waiting lists for hospital treatment.
If you have a critical or serious illness that affects your ability to work, waiting for months to be treated can impact not just your health; it can affect your financial stability and your family's lifestyle. Your ability to access affordable treatment through your health cover can mean the difference between getting back to work sooner, or having to take an extended period of time off.
If you're not sure whether your health insurance covers you for serious and critical illnesses, why not have a chat to Choosewell today and compare critical illness cover to see which cover is right for you.
Our experienced health insurance consultants can review your policy and evaluate your health insurance needs so you can make sure you have enough cover to protect you if something unexpected happens.
How can private health insurance help in cases of critical illness?
While private health insurance is different to trauma insurance (which is a type of life insurance), there is still plenty your private health insurance can do to help alleviate the financial burden of medical treatment for a serious illness.
The treatment costs for a serious illness like cancer can be incredibly high and without private health insurance, the only option for many people is to go through the public system. This can mean longer waiting lists for treatment and in some cases, limited options as to how and where you are treated.
Being diagnosed with a serious illness is stressful enough as it is. The last thing you want is to have to limit your treatment options. If you have private health insurance you can claim for part or all of the costs of your hospital treatment, and you may have affordable access to private as well as public hospitals and specialists.
Can private health insurance help me if I'm injured?
If you're seriously injured you may need hospitalisation, or you might need to undergo one or more procedures. You may also want to access other services like physiotherapy and occupational therapy to help you recover so you can get back to work quickly.
While some services are available on Medicare, there are often limits to how much is covered and which services you can access through the public system. Private health insurance can give you cover for an increased range of services along with hospital cover so you don't have to wait for a procedure in a public hospital.
If you're injured and unable to work, the last thing you want is to have to think about how you're going to pay the hospital costs for treatment and rehabilitation, or wait longer than necessary for an essential procedure.
Having the right cover on your private health insurance can help you recover more quickly from a serious injury and get the treatment you need sooner rather than later.
If I switch policies will I have to wait to claim for treatment?
If you've recently experienced a serious injury or have been diagnosed with a critical illness, your current policy might not be enough to cover the costs of treatment.
Major illnesses and accidents can happen when you least expect it, and if you are young and healthy, or if you've been focusing on other priorities like family, you might not have considered getting cover for major hospital treatment or extras cover for rehabilitation services on your existing policy.
While it may be a good idea to switch to a health fund and policy that will help you meet the costs of your treatment, it's also important to be aware that most health funds impose waiting periods before you can claim higher benefits for pre-existing conditions.
A pre-existing condition is defined as any ailment, illness or health condition that was diagnosed, or you've shown symptoms of within six months prior to taking out the policy or increasing your cover. Normal waiting periods are two months. Waiting periods for maternity and pre-existing conditions are a year so it's important to check any new policy carefully to make sure you will be able to claim in the timeframe you want to.
Pre-existing conditions and waiting periods can be confusing and it's important that you understand what you're covered for when you're switching to a new policy.
To get in touch with an experienced health insurance expert about changing or upgrading your policy, give Choosewell a call. We can talk through your situation and your options to find you the best policy to suit your needs.
What's the difference between Trauma Insurance and Private Health Insurance?
You may have heard about trauma insurance (also known as critical illness insurance) as a way to help protect yourself and your family financially in the event of a serious illness. While trauma and health insurance are both intended to help ease the financial burden that comes with a serious injury or critical illness, they are separate types of insurance.
Trauma Insurance is a type of life insurance that pays out a lump sum to the policyholder in the event that they are diagnosed with one of the serious illnesses covered by the policy or are significantly injured. The lump sum payment can be put towards current debts (for example the mortgage), or enable the person to take some time off work and focus on recovery.
Health insurance is intended solely to help with health care costs, treatment and hospital procedures. While you will be able to claim for the cost of eligible treatment, the amount will depend on your policy and its limits. Health insurance benefits are paid for specific health care costs rather than as a lump sum payout.
If you are interested in finding the best critical illness insurance policy, it's a good idea to shop around. As with any insurance it's always a good idea to compare critical illness insurance to find the best policy for you.

North Andover student Chloe Buonopane will perform in the Commonwealth Ballet Company's annual production of The Nutcracker; she will dance in the role of Russian Corps.
Chloe joins a cast of over 75 dancers and guest artists. The productin is directed by Chip Morris. Inspired by Tchaikovsky's score, Commonwealth Ballet's "The Nutcracker" brings Clara's dream world to life with festive sets, colorful costumes and outstanding dancing.
The production returns this year to the Casey Theatre at Regis College in Weston for eight performances from Nov. 24-26 and Dec. 8-10.
The performance of "The Nutcracker" on Nov. 25 will be sensory friendly. All are welcome; the theatre lights will be left on a little, the music volume will be turned down, and some of the action on stage will be less intense. There will be a "quiet zone" for anyone who needs to relax for a few minutes. All tickets for this show are $20.
Kathryn Anderson and Chip Morris formed Commonwealth Ballet Company in October 1992. The Acton-based Company has produced over 65 dance programs since its inception. The company has grown over the years to produce performances throughout Boston and Metro West.

AUSTIN - Hurricane Ike augered through the state Sept. 13-14, battering Galveston and other communities along its path.
Gov. Rick Perry pledged to residents of stricken areas that the state would see them through the restoration process.
Perry�s office reported that as of Sept. 18, 211 shelters were open throughout Texas housing more than 21,941 evacuees; more than 1,360 truckloads of water and 1,201 truckloads of ice have been distributed throughout storm-affected areas.
Nearly 10,000 utility workers, many from out of state, set about the task of restoring power. As of Sept. 20, about one third of the estimated 3 million people were still without power.
Reopened businesses and many more signs of recovery from the hurricane are popping up, but there is much unresolved for thousands of people. The governor urged displaced Texans �to remain patient and stay where they are until local officials deem their neighborhoods are safe enough for their return.�
For those displaced by the hurricane, Perry ordered that hotel and motel taxes be waived through Oct. 14 and FEMA set up transitional housing help.
Evacuees may phone 2-1-1 from any Texas landline or Texas cell phone to get information on how and where to apply for food stamps and other assistance.
Insurance companies have been extra busy. For example, Farmers Insurance said that as of Sept. 16, the company had received more than 50,000 Ike-related claims.
Farmers sent claims buses to sites in Houston, Beaumont, Humble Pasadena, Pearland and Sugar Land to help customers file on-the-spot claims.
And what about beloved pets and livestock left behind in the storm?
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals reported it was working with the Texas State Animal Resource Team and other credentialed animal care agencies to assist and provide resources.
AG provides info-aid to evacuees
Attorney General Greg Abbott and his office have had a big role in the return to normalcy after Hurricane Ike.
On Sept. 15, Abbott launched a hotline to help custodial parents get child support payments.
Also on Sept. 15, he announced that more than 3,300 evacuees had been screened in an effort to identify registered sex offenders staying in shelters.
On Sept. 16, Abbott reminded Texans to report price gougers. Also on Sept. 16, he detailed the rights of evacuees when they stay in hotels.
On Sept. 17, he offered tips on ways to avoid disaster-related scams and that same day he also said emergency shelters had called in 5,555 evacuee names for his office staff to compare with the Department of Public Safety�s sex offender registry.
As of Sept. 18, Abbott�s office identified 18 people residing in emergency shelters as sex offenders and 36 more people as possible matches with the sex offender database.
And on Sept. 19, Abbott said, �When disaster strikes, many Texans want to make generous donations to charitable organizations. Before reaching for their wallets, Texans should ask questions and check the facts to make sure they are not about to hand their money over to a scam artist posing as a charitable cause.�
Combs parts with Lehman Bros.
Texas Comptroller Susan Combs on Sept. 17 severed the state�s contract with Lehman Brothers Inc. to provide marketing and client services to TexPool and TexPool Prime, investment pools used by local governmental bodies.
Lehman Brothers Inc. is owned by Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Sept. 15.
Combs assured investors that the bankruptcy filing poses no threat to local governments invested in TexPool and TexPool Prime. Those kinds of investments are managed by a separate company, Federated Investors Inc., she said.
Eyes of Texas on bailout plan
Attention will be on Congress over the next few days, to see how lawmakers react to the Bush administration�s proposed $700 billion bailout of Wall Street financial institutions that are suffering the cascading effect of failed home mortgages. Texans will have a big stake in the outcome.
Big dates in upcoming election
Monday, Oct. 6, is the last day for Texas residents to register to vote in the Nov. 4 general election. Early voting begins Oct. 20 and ends Oct. 31.

Losing a child, particularly to suicide, is gut wrenching. It lends an entirely new perspective on the term, "a broken heart," because every morning when I wake up and realize that 'yes, Erik is still dead; it wasn't all some horrible dream,' I feel like a dagger has been plunged to the hilt into my heart. Since his death, it's like I've lost a limb and must limp through life a broken woman. Some days I wonder how I can bear plodding through the decades I have left on Earth when every day that my son isn't with me is like a bitter eternity. Some days, I long for death, but the love I have for my husband, my other children, my friends and the rest of my family plays tug-of-war with my soul. I must stay. I must love. I must endure.
Of course I have many good days, but when I slip into a particularly dark place, Erik comes to comfort me. The other day he did just that. Here is just one story of the many miracles with which he graces our lives:
Erik shot himself in the head in his bedroom. Finding him moments later was the most horrible experience I've ever had. For days, I couldn't even go upstairs, much less return to that room. Then, I went through a phase when I wanted to be there all the time. I wanted to smell his dirty clothes. I cursed the fact that the sheets on his bed were changed minutes before his death, robbing me of the chance to soak in his scent, his essence. I tended to the makeshift altar on his desk by lighting the candles and rearranging the flowers that were slowly turning brown. I combed every surface, every wall to find the dent made by the wretched bullet that stole him from me forever.
Now, I avoid the room again. Seeing the rough wood planks from which the carpet was removed, seeing the yellow bags the crime scene cleanup crew filled with his clothes, seeing his empty bed…it's just too hard. We keep pictures of him around the house, but every reminder of his death is locked away in his room: the photo album from the funeral home, the keepsake box filled with sympathy letters, leftover programs for his memorial service, copies of our eulogies, they're all in his room as unspeakable reminders of a life cut short. Erik's room is a no man's land behind a locked door that no one dares open. To open that door is to open painful wounds again.
The other day, I felt particularly sad. As I sat on the couch sobbing softly, the housekeeper who comes once a week and has know Erik since he was 16 months old approached me quietly. She said, "Elisa, look what I found on the utility room floor." She placed a little card in my hand. It was a card meant to be distributed to everyone at Erik's visitation and memorial service providing information on how to leave an audio message, thoughts, prayers, remembrances, condolences.
How could this be? These cards have been locked away in the leather keepsake box in his room upstairs. The door to his room has been closed for months. How did that card go from that box, from that room, all the way downstairs to settle on the white tile floor in the middle of another room?
As I touched that card, Erik's image appeared in my mind. However, this was no ordinary image. It was vivid. It was strong. It was tangible. And the smile on his face spoke volumes. It said, "Mom, I'm fine. I'm here. I'm as alive as I've ever been."
I've learned so much from the books I've read on how souls can manipulate energy to move material objects, even books explaining the physics behind the phenomenon. In a previous entry, I recounted how Erik said he was working on developing that skill so he can contact us in more tangible ways. That miracle proved to me that his practice paid off.
A day destined to be sad had become happy. Thank you, Erik, my darling boy.

I am sticking with my Halloween theme for now since it is the first holiday we will encounter. I saw a card similar to the one I am going to share today on Pinterest months ago. It stuck with me and I really wanted to give it a try. Ready to see it? Let's go.
I am sure you have seen those cute Halloween decorations that people put on doors and trees that depict a witch who had a slight mishap while flying around on her broom. I have always enjoyed this decoration so when I saw it on a card, I knew I wanted to try to make one myself.
I started with a base card of Tangerine Tango card stock cut at 5" x 10", scored at 5". I added a layer of Basic Black to this which measures 4 7/8" x 4 7/8". The final top layer is Smoky Slate cut at 4 3/4" x 4 3/4". All layers were attached using runner adhesive. I chose to do this card as a square because the witch would fit better. On this top layer of slate, I took a sponge with black ink on it and brushed it over the top of it. I then took a piece of Early Espresso card stock and cut it to be 2" x 4 3/4". I ran it through the big shot using the woodgrain impression folder and then adhered it to the card with runner adhesive.
To start the witch, I took a piece of black card stock that I had run through the big shot using a swirl impression folder. I punched out a 1 3/4" circle for the round piece and a small pennant from the pennant punch. I added a piece of Elegant Eggplant to the pennant to form a band for the hat. I attached the pieces together using liquid glue and added purple glitter glue to the band.
The hands of the witch are from the boho blossom punch. It's the large flower trimmed down. The "hand" is attached with liquid glue to a word window that I trimmed a bit to fit the wrist. I set these aside to attach to the witch in a bit. I did go ahead and make the hair using a scrap of Gumball Green card stock and cutting strips in it. It is attached to the hat using the liquid glue.
For the cape, I again used the black card stock and punched out several of the larger scallop pennants from the pennant punch. I layered them together with liquid glue and attached them to the hair is the same glue. I then added the arms to it as were as orange glitter glue dots.
For the legs, I used the modern label punch. I started by punching out the label in black and then punched a second one for each leg in Gumball Green. I cut pieces off the green and glued it with a 2 way glue pen to the black. I added green glitter glue and attached them to the cape with liquid glue. The shoes were made using the full heart punch. I punched 2 out of black, cut a notch for the heel, and trimmed the rest to make the boot. These are attached to the legs using liquid glue. I then added crystal effects to them to make them look glossy.
Now for the broom, I glued a scrap of espresso to the underside of the witch. I then took the retired jewelry tag punch and punched 2 out of Daffodil Delight. I layered them so that the top knobs would be next to each other. I then punched a small oval out of the daffodil and flattened on side. I attached this to the tags with the glue pen and cut strips to form the bristles. I added some yellow glitter glue to the top portion of the bristles and attached it to the broom pole with the 2 way glue pen.
Once all pieces of the witch were complete and dry, it was time to attach her to the card. I decided to use dimensionals to do this. I like the depth it adds to the card.
Well that's all I have for today. I am off to clean the house and work on the invitations for the charity banquet my hubby is hosting in September. I will return with another share for you so please stop by to see me again. Thanks for dropping by today!
