|[jira] Created: (AMQ-1895) activemq.xml embedded camel context cannot resolve a broker if port other than default(61616) is used for tcp transport
|Tue, 19 Aug 2008 10:51:52 GMT
activemq.xml embedded camel context cannot resolve a broker if port other than default(61616) is used for tcp transport ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: AMQ-1895 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1895 Project: ActiveMQ Issue Type: Bug Components: Broker Affects Versions: 5.1.0 Environment: all Reporter: Gary Tully Assignee: Gary Tully Fix For: 5.2.0 The camel context defined in acrtivemq.xml does not specify a camel activeMQComponent (where a brokerUrl could be specified) and hence false back to the use of the default broker URL from ActiveMQConnectionFactory. This breaks down when a non default port is specified for the broker. The result is the camel context continually retrying to connect to a non existent port. It may make sense to pull the camel context out of the default activemq.xml altogether but with it present, it may make sense to have the camel activmqcomponent use a default broker url that uses the vm transport as the context will always be embedded in a broker. One issue with the use of vm transport is that the first use of the transport creates an embedded broker. With the xbean xml, the camel context bean starts before the brokerService so the result is two brokers. It would be usefull if the vm transport url allowed an option to wait for a broker to start so that the camel context can reliably use the vm transport without the possibility of creating a separate embedded broker. Something like the following would work: {code} vm://localhost?waitForStart=10000&create=false {code} In this way, the camel embedded connection factory would wait up to 10 seconds for the localhost broker to start and fail with an exception (b/c create=false) in the event that the broker does not start within that time. This would be a sensible default url for the activemq camel component in the acrtivemq.xml such that it is independent of transport options used by the broker. (The spring depends-on workaround for this ordering dependency only works in a complete spring context) {code} <bean id="activemq" class="org.apache.activemq.camel.component.ActiveMQComponent" > <property name="brokerURL" value="vm://localhost?waitForStart=10000&create=false" /> </bean> {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Except for museums that are accustomed to receiving gifts of art and artifacts, charities tend to focus on gifts of cash, securities, and real estate. In the process, they may be missing opportunities to attract valuable gifts of tangible assets.
Any physical object of value could make a great gift to your organization. The list includes, but certainly isn't limited to, artwork; antiques; stamp, coin, and other collections; gold and silver; cars and other vehicles; and boats.
The person making the gift executes a deed of gift conveying ownership and delivers the object to the charity. The gift is complete when both of these events have occurred.
There are a number of issues to keep in mind when working with a supporter who is considering a gift of tangible personal property.
Will Your Organization Put the Gift to a Related Use?
In order for a donor of tangible personal property to be able to deduct its full fair market value, the charity must use the object in a manner that is related to its exempt purpose. Examples would be a painting that is added to the collection of an art museum and a wooden boat put on display at a nautical museum. If the object is unrelated to the charity's exempt purpose, however, the donor's deduction is the lesser of the object's fair market value on the date of gift and the donor's cost basis.
For instance, if a donor gives a painting worth $100,000 that she bought for $10,000 to an art museum that will keep the painting, the donor can deduct the full $100,000 value of the painting. If she gives the same painting to a conservation organization that will sell it and use the proceeds, she can deduct only her $10,000 cost. It is the donor's responsibility to establish "related use," so the donor should secure from the charity a letter stating the charity's intent to use the property for a purpose related to its mission.
Even if the object is potentially related to the charity's mission (for example, a painting given to an art museum), if the charity's intention is to sell it upon receipt, then the gift is not for a related use and the donor's deduction will be limited accordingly.
Conversely, a gift of artwork doesn't necessarily have to be to a museum to be considered for a related use. In Private Letter Ruling 9833011, the IRS ruled that gifts of artworks to a Jewish community center would be for a related use because they would have religious and cultural significance. Similarly, gifts of artworks to a hospital may be for a related use if their display in common and patient rooms contributes to a healing environment.
Will the Donor Give Her Entire Interest in the Property?
A charitable deduction is not allowed when a donor transfers ownership of tangible personal property but retains possession of the property. This is a gift of a future interest, for which a deduction is not allowed under Reg. Sec 1.170A-5(a)(4.
However, it is possible to give an undivided fractional interest in the property, such as full possession of an object for a part of each year. The rules for fractional-interest gifts of artwork, in particular, were considerably tightened in the Pension Protection Act of 2006 and may be summarized as follows:
- When the initial fractional interest is contributed, the income tax charitable deduction will be based on the fair market value of the artwork and whether it is put to a related use.
- When subsequent fractional interests are contributed, the fair market value used in determining the deduction will be the lesser of the fair market value of the fractional interest at the time of the initial contribution and the fair market value of the interest at the time of the current contribution. In other words, the donor cannot deduct any appreciation in the value of the object that occurs after the initial gift. At the same time, if the object declines in value after the initial gift, the donor must base her deduction for the gift of another fractional interest on the artwork's now lower value.
- If a donor fails to contribute all of his or her remaining interests in the artwork within 10 years of the initial gift, the donor's income and gift tax deductions for all previous contributions will be recaptured.
- The charity must have physical possession of the artwork for the fraction of each year equal to the fraction of ownership conveyed through all contributions. For example, if a donor contributes a 25-percent fractional interest in the artwork, the charity must have possession of the artwork for three months of the year.
How Did the Donor Come to Own the Property?
If the donor purchased the property for personal use or enjoyment, or inherited it, then its deductibility will depend on whether it is given for a related use as described earlier. However, if the donor of an artwork or other tangible personal property (1) created the object, (2) received it as a gift from the creator, or (3) is a dealer who owns the object as inventory, the object is ordinary income property. In this case, the donor's deduction will be the lesser of fair market value and her cost basis, even if she contributes the object for a related purpose. This rule applies to all gifts of ordinary income property, not just those of tangible personal property. The cost basis for an object's creator, as well as for a donor who receives the object from its creator as a gift, is the creator's outlay for materials. The value of the hours spent fashioning the object cannot be included in the cost basis.
Appraisal Requirements
If the deduction claimed for a gift of tangible personal property exceeds $5,000, the donor must secure an appraisal from a qualified appraiser and submit Form 8283 with the tax return on which the deduction is claimed. If a donor contributes artwork valued at more than $20,000, the donor must include a copy of the appraisal with the tax return. If a donor contributes tangible personal property other than an artwork, and the value of the object is over $500,000, the donor must attach the appraisal itself to the tax return.
Capital Gains Tax Rate Higher on Collectibles
The maximum federal tax rate on long term capital gain realized on the sale of securities or real estate is 20%. The tax rate on long term capital gain realized on the sale of "collectibles," such as artwork, antiques, stamps, and coins, is 28%. This means that in many instances a donor can save more capital gains tax when giving tangible personal property than when giving securities or real estate.
Options for Giving Tangible Personal Property
The simplest way for a donor to give tangible personal property is outright, but it's certainly not the only option.
Gift Annuities: The charity could offer a gift annuity in exchange for a contribution of such an asset. In this case, it would be in the charity's interest to investigate not only the value of the object, but also the likely costs of selling it, so that it can determine a proper annuity amount. For example, if a donor wants to fund a gift annuity with a stamp collection and commissions to sell it would likely be in the 15-20 percent range, it would be wise for the charity to offer an annuity rate that is about 20% below the American Council on Gift Annuities rate. While the donor's deduction will be based on the lesser of fair market value and cost basis, the gift annuity provides a way to generate cash flow from a non-income producing asset, reduce the amount of capital gain the donor must report, and make a generous charitable gift.
No states prohibit accepting tangible personal property for a gift annuity. However, in a state that regulates the types of acceptable reserve assets, such as California, the charity will need to satisfy its reserve requirement for the annuity by transferring institutional assets into its reserve pool.
Charitable Remainder Trusts: A "flip" unitrust is ordinarily the best form of charitable remainder trust to fund with tangible personal property. The unitrust can convert from a net income unitrust to a regular unitrust after it sells the object used to fund it. Meanwhile, the trustee can take whatever time is necessary to sell the property at a fair price without needing to make beneficiary payments. A donor who wants the fixed payments offered by an annuity trust would be wise to contribute cash or publicly-traded securities to the trust in addition to the tangible personal property so that there are liquid assets for making payments prior to the sale.
When a donor contributes tangible personal property to a charitable remainder trust, and the donor or a family member is an income beneficiary (which is almost always the case), no income tax charitable deduction will be allowed until the trust sells the property. The donor will then be allowed a deduction for the value of the charity's remainder interest as of the date of the sale. (IRC Sec. 170(a)(3)). The amount of the deduction will be based on the lesser of the fair market value and the donor's cost basis, since a gift to a charitable remainder trust cannot be for a related use, as well as the IRS discount rate and actuarial ages of the beneficiaries as of the date of sale.
Bargain Sale: A donor can sell an object to the charity for less than the appraised value. An income tax deduction is then allowed for the difference between the selling price and the appraised value if the object is acquired for a related use. The donor is taxed on the capital gain attributable to the sales price but not on the gain attributable to the deductible amount. For example, if a donor sells property appraised at $200,000 with a cost basis of $60,000 to the charity for $120,000, the resulting deduction is $80,000, the taxable gain is $84,000 ((120,000/200,000) x ($200,000 - $60,000)), and the remaining $56,000 of gain is not taxed. However, if the charity purchases the property for re-sale, the donor's deduction will be only $24,000 ((80,000/200,000) x $60,000).
Installment Bargain Sale: Instead of paying the donor a bargain price in a lump sum, a charity can pay it in installments. This approach may make the purchase easier for the charity to take on or may fit the donor's needs better. An installment bargain sale resembles a gift annuity, but could be a preferable alternative if:
- The donor wants payments for a term of years.
- The donor wants heirs to receive the payments for the balance of the amortization period, if he or she does not live that long.
- The charity either does not offer gift annuities or is unwilling to issue one in exchange for tangible personal property.
There are many ways donors can give tangible personal property, depending on their objectives. If they want the charity to have immediate use of the property, they can simply give it outright. If they want to convert the property to a stream of payments, they can use it to fund a gift annuity or a charitable remainder trust, or sell it to the charity under an installment bargain sale arrangement.
The charitable deduction can be significant if the property is given to the charity for a related use. Even if the gift is not for a related use and the deduction is therefore relatively small, there still can be other significant financial benefits: payments for life or a term of years, avoidance or postponement of tax on the capital gain, and removal of the property from the taxable estate. The benefit regarding capital gain is more significant than with a gift of appreciated securities or real estate because the maximum tax rate on gain in collectibles is higher than on those other assets.
For all of these reasons it makes sense for your charity to encourage gifts of tangible assets. Keep your eyes and ears open for these opportunities when meeting with donors. Include a donor story in your newsletter or on your website about such a gift. Seek ways to remind your organization's supporters that a valuable object or collection can make a great gift.

Egyptian Member of Parliament Dalia Youssef, Chairwoman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, discusses the vital importance of cultural influences, or "soft power," in defeating extremism around the world in the Washington Examiner.
"Soft power is the ability to win over the hearts and minds of people, to influence their thinking and change behavior through the spread of ideas, dialogue and cultural exchanges."
Youssef urges the United States and Egypt to work together to use their soft power "to advance a more prosperous and secure Middle East."
Youssef writes, "Egypt's soft power can support a culture that discourages hate speech and promotes the co-existence of all peoples."
Youssef cites Egypt's long history of culture leadership in art, education, music, television and film. "For the past century, Egypt has been the most important center for scholars, artists, authors and intellectuals, who have played an essential role in shaping Egyptian society and influencing Arab populations around the world."

A human leg has been found at a recycling plant.
The alarm was raised late on Thursday night after the limb was discovered at the Thornton's plant in Ballyfermot, west Dublin.
A Garda investigation has been launched and part of the recycling centre in Killeen Road has been closed down for forensic examinations to take place.
It could not be confirmed if the leg was from a man or a woman, the Irish Independent writes.
The newspaper adds one avenue being investigated is that the leg could be from a homeless person who may have been sleeping rough in a bin somewhere in the city.
It writes: "There have been instances before where homeless people sleeping in bins have been crushed in bin lorries, as well as occasions where homeless people have been rescued from the jaws of the mechanical crushers after being tipped into them from bins."
A further theory is that the limb was dumped following a murder.

I mentioned in one of my earlier posts that Whole Foods was a whole new world, and that it deserves its own blog post. And it still fully does. So, here it is!
First thing's first, yes, Whole Foods Market is technically a Supermarket, but nothing like Kiwis who have never ventured out of New Zealand have seen before. I don't even want to put it in the Supermarket basket, it just sounds… dirty.
My first experience, and introduction to one of the best things ever was chaotic to say the least. But at the same time it was… magical, colourful, bustling, sweet-smelling, dazzling, and delicious. Seriously, I just looked at my sub-par photos and they don't nearly do it justice.
I believe I've also mentioned before that San Francisco was in its own little bubble, an area that's no really representative of "typical" or "stereotypical" America. It's full of busy, lovely, smart, and very health-orientated people. (As well as lots of homeless. Also, a kind of alarming statistic was told to me recently that an average service worker here is holding down 2.5 jobs. Ouch)
The Whole Foods Market caters to exactly these people, as soon as you walk in you are surrounded by fruits, a deli, salad, soup, and hot meal bars, drinks, organics, baked goods, etc. But as you explore further in there are many amazing finds just waiting in the depths of the shelved isles.
For example, you can get a growler of craft beer here for $18, dozens of kinds of organic milk, at around $3, craft chocolate, fresh sea food, a whole selection of different soups, salads, curries, sushi, sandwiches, cooked thins like pizza, and lots with vegetarian and vegan options.
I've discovered my favourite thing to do here is make a salad box, filled with lettuce, spinach, chia seeds, sunflower seeds, fresh capsicum, cucumber, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, a hard boiled egg (lol), whatever other fresh veggies they have, and sometimes some spicey roast chicken. It's very good. It's like a better, do-it-yourself Subway model, but you pay for all these salad options by weight, so be warned, don't pack in a ton of rice for a cheap meal because it will come back to bite you in the bum (yeah, that happened, but not to me thank god).
The first moment I stepped in to Whole Foods it felt so unreal, it was my second day in the city. I remember it so clearly. We went right around lunch time on the hottest day that ever was. The cool air conditioned store embraced us as we stepped inside, right into the hustling, bustling hive of activity centered around these SoMa shoppers.
There were people everywhere, food everywhere, lights, colours, fruits, smells, it was glorious. There's nothing like Whole Foods, I don't even think this blog post does it justice.
Will probably need to get some better images, but nothing I describe or show you will do it justice until you actually go. So, next time you're in San Francisco – don't bother about Fisherman's Warf, the Golden Gate Bridge, other touristy things… just go to Whole Foods.
Actually I don't know if they have them in other cities, if they do, leave the "travel itinerary" at home, there's only one place you need to go to and that's here.
Okay, maybe I hyped it up slightly a little too much, because since writing this I have in fact discovered many more amazing things, including the best wrapped up thing I've ever eaten, a $2 fresh fish taco trailer, flying above all the islands around SF with champagne (oh yeah, that story is my favourite so far. It's a real doozey), and the wonderful world of LA (from where I'm currently writing this).

Last week, I traveled to Iceland for the celebratory graduation trip of my dreams with my best friend. I'm not going to lie – I'm not a stranger to international travel, but there were definitely some things that surprised me. I'll try and share some tips, too, since Becca and I managed to do everything on a college kid's budget.
We ended up going before tourist season, which starts in April. This was mostly because of Becca's spring break, since I wanted to go at a time when we could potentially see the northern lights and not in the middle of tourist season. We did see the lights from the plane, and it was incredible! Since it wasn't tourist season, the car and camping equipment was on the cheaper side – less competition and all that.
We arrived in Iceland early Monday morning. Bec and I rented a car Monday-Thursday and drove from Reykjavik to Hofn. If we would've done it straight, it would've been about 8 hours driving. Instead, we rented camping equipment and stretched the trip out, stopping to see basically everything we could. We started with the Golden Circle, then moved to the Ring Road. Everything was so brutally gorgeous.
Camping on the off-season was kind of rough, but we managed. The hardest part was setting up the tent in the wind. If you're camping, I recommend bringing earplugs – that was the only way I could sleep with the wind rustling the fabric of the tent. It wasn't nearly as cold as I'd expected, though, so that was a plus! We had thermal sleeping bags and synthetic liners, so both of us were toasty overnight.
One thing that I kept hearing that turned out to be true: actually being in Iceland is EXPENSIVE. A meal is usually $25 at the low end. Instead of spending an arm and a leg on food, we rented a camping stove and got a few quick things from the grocery store. This means we ended up mostly eating bread and jelly, but we didn't spend a ton of money on food! The other huge expense was gas, but it was definitely cheaper to rent the car and pay the gas rather than doing bus tours. We were able to do everything at our own pace, which I appreciated. Driving wasn't bad, either. I was the driver, and the only spooky parts were the one-lane bridges that we came across periodically.
I can't even say what my favorite part of the trip was since everything was gorgeous. I was a huge fan of Diamond Beach and all of the waterfalls we stopped at. I have hundreds of pictures, but I'm trying to rein myself in and only share a few of my favorites.
If you're thinking of traveling to Iceland and have questions about the trip, feel free to DM me on Twitter or Instagram or leave a comment! I'd be happy to share more info about costs and our experience. We used Lotus Car Rental, Iceland Camping Equipment Rentals, WOWAir, and stayed at Hlemmur Square hostel in Reykjavik. I did bring two guidebooks (which were immensely helpful): Iceland's Ring Road Trips from Lonely Planet and the Frommer's Easy Guide to Iceland. I couldn't have asked for a better trip!

Let's be honest, in today's modern day of interior design (aka Pintrest boards), the kitchen is a crucial element to any home décor. With that said, does the new wave of gadgets, accessories and more need to extend to your kitchen? Or, does the old saying of "Less is More" ring true? Follow these seven tips for taking a minimalist approach to your kitchen décor.
New styles can be necessary
It can be hard to hear it, but perhaps that kitchen of yours is past salvation.
If so, then perhaps a kitchen makeover may be necessary. I used kitchen renovations by Brentwood Kitchens and couldn't be happier. Sometimes, it isn't possible to take that minimalist approach with your current setup. If not, consider a renovation to help you achieve that simple style.
Too many dishes
Minimalist is all about only keeping what you actually use. If you have 26 dinner plates, 14 bowls and a few additional platters, really ask yourself the hard questions. If the answer you find is that you rarely use all of that china or dishware, then get rid of it.
Most people will never entertain the idea of having more than 20 people over for a dinner party. So, if you don't need it, then do something nice while achieving that minimalist approach and give the excess to an op shop.
Storage is king
If you have it already, then use it properly. If you are considering tip one then ensure your kitchen has the storage you need. Storage is everything to a minimalist. Taking a minimalist approach doesn't mean only having two of everything. It means having a clean approach to the look and feel of your kitchen.
Don't overcrowd benches with appliances, store them away and only pull them out when needed. A clean and clutter-free kitchen will achieve that minimalist approach much faster.
Rid yourself of infomercial knick-knacks
I'm sure at the time that avocado container or that 5 in 1 slicer was a great idea. But be realistic and really think back to how many times you've used it since you paid four instalments of $14.99. Those knick-knacks were a nice fad, but like all good things, they must come to an end. Clear the draws of any non-essential tools and keep only what you use on a regular basis.
Slice and dice
If you aren't a 3 hat Michelin chef, then chances are you don't need a knife block with 14 different textured knives. Taking a minimalist approach is all about looking at what you have an really questioning whether you need it and whether you actually use it.
Knives are essential in any kitchen, but you don't need too many. Think about what you use your knives for, keep the corresponding knife then ditch the rest. You'll be amazed at the bench space and draw space you claim back.
Pantry essentials
One of the more easily forgotten spaces in any kitchen is the pantry. Usually the story goes, get home from shopping, throw it all on the shelves in the pantry and close the door. That closed door can hide a myriad of sins. But taking a minimalist approach is all about owning all of your space.
Take the time to declutter your pantry, you might be surprised by the use by dates of some of those long forgotten items. Take back control of your pantry and designate clear spaces for each item or group of items.
Too big or too small
In most kitchens, you'll find a whole allotment of space or cupboard dedicated to one thing, pots and pans. To really take the minimalist approach it is important to assess your needs.
A pot or pan can easily be too small for a task in the kitchen, but rarely will you say a pot or pan is too big. Take a look at all your pots and pans and work out whether you need that many or whether ditching a few of the smaller ones will do the same job.
Minimalist kitchens are a great way to reduce stress and time wasted in the kitchen. Take the time to understand your needs. Then when you are ready, use these seven tips for taking minimalist approach to your kitchen décor.

minister of Foreign Affairs International Cooperation and Gambians Abroad,
Lawyer Ousainou Darboe, has opined that the ousted former Gambian President
Yahya Jammeh was going to remove The Gambia from both UN and ECOWAS if he had
won the election.
"I don't know of any reason (s) Jammeh has given as to why he pulled out from the Commonwealth. He said it is a neo-colonial institution. And I would have thought that he would also go out of the UN; after all, the UN was set-up by past colonial powers; so that was his reason. But then, really I think he wanted to avoid scrutiny by his peers," he added.
Mr. Darboe, who is also the secretary general and party leader of the United Democratic Party (UDP) made these remarks in an exclusive interview with this reporter at his office in Banjul.
The Foreign Affairs minister added that before Jammeh withdraws Gambia's membership from the Commonwealth, they were pushing for the establishment of the Human Right Commission and he didn't listen. "He did not want anybody to look into his human rights record; that commission would be one avenue through which the performance of his government's human rights issues could be looked into."
"You know there was a time he was even saying that 'I will go out of any sub-regional organisation that is neo-colonial.' So he was even prepared to get us out of ECOWAS if they had gone telling him what he was doing was wrong; you cannot do this; you have to change your ways," he disclosed.
Assessment of Barrow's one hear in government
Asked to highlight some of the success stories of the Barrow administration, Minister Darboe said he would really want Gambians to assess them. However, he said returning to the Commonwealth is a major foreign policy achievement; "that's a huge gigantic step."
"At the time we were taking over; we just had four weeks income cover. Now have four months and it is increasing and the economic is speaking up," he said. "We have broken this isolation position of The Gambia; we have now been embraced by the international communities."
Minister Darboe also described the international conference center among other projects brought by the Barrow government as a milestone achievement. The Ministry of Trade, he went on, is also trying hard in getting investors to come to the country.
"We are not like Jammeh shouting that; very soon you will see people coming from England to be your dishwasher in The Gambia. We are very realistic and we know what we are capable of doing. And what we are capable of doing; we are doing it without shouting," he stressed.

Our initial in-depth discussion with you helps us collect important information about your claim, such as what you feel went wrong, the financial or other losses this caused you and when you first found out about this.
We'll review all your documents and other information, including any that the professional holds, which will then enable us to give you our expert opinion on the strength of your case and the likely value of your claim.
If your case is strong enough to proceed, we'll send a Preliminary Notice to the professional involved, setting out the basis of your grievance and the claim you are intending to make. The professional then has 21 days to respond.
Once we receive a response, we'll prepare the detailed Letter of Claim and send it to the professional, along with any relevant documents that support your case. This letter will set out the facts upon which your claim is based, the allegations against him or her, an explanation of how this has caused you loss, the estimated value of this loss and details of how this has been calculated.
The professional has 3 months to investigate and fully respond to our letter. They must provide their answers to the allegations you have made, identify which they admit or deny, send us copies of any documents they wish to rely on, and provide details of any further information needed from you.
We will work with you to draft a detailed, accurate statement in your own words about your claim and the losses that you are now looking to claim for. We may also need to take witness statements from other people who can support your case – for example your family members.
Depending on the nature of your claim, we may need to engage one or more experts to provide a report to support your case - for example, if you have long term injuries. Once the experts' reports have been received and agreed by you, we will send a copy to the professional you are claiming against.
If your case has not been settled, we may need to issue court proceedings against the professional so we will deal with all the detailed court processes on your behalf.
If your case does go to trial, you will need to attend the hearing, together with any other witness and possibly the experts we instructed in the case. If the judge decides that the professional was negligent, the judge will decide on the amount of compensation you will receive for your losses. The defendant will usually be ordered to pay us the costs we have incurred in preparing your case, including court fees and expert reports.
If you are successful in your case, we will agree a date by which your compensation will be paid to us so that we can pay your compensation to you as quickly as possible.
Because the circumstances surrounding every claim and their effects are different, it's very difficult to give a definitive answer on how long it takes to settle a claim. Often it depends on how quickly our clients provide us with essential information, how quickly we can get your file of papers from the professional and any expert reports required, and whether the insurance companies are willing to provide realistic offers to settle the claims.
Whilst we aim to settle your claim as quickly as possible, we also want to ensure we secure the maximum compensation for you. This often means we have to do some hard negotiation with the defendants – which takes extra time. Our aim is to balance progressing the claim as fast as possible with getting you the maximum settlement.
We realise that you'll be keen to know about the progress of your claim so we will send you regular emails and texts to keep you up to date, and also to remind you if there is any information we're waiting for from you.

While "one day at a time" is an excellent victory yardstick, imagine the value of being able to look back and see what each day was like.
Consider jotting down a few calendar notes or diary entries about early recovery and the challenges overcome. Although not necessary to success, doing so could prove valuable later.
Why would anyone want to vividly recall the first few days of recovery, days which could reflect a tumultuous blend of frustrations, anxieties, crave episodes, anger, bargaining and sadness? For the same reason we need to remember - in as much detail as possible - daily life as an actively feeding addict.
I'm sure you've heard the saying, "those who forget the past are destined to repeat it." It's hard to imagine a situation where it rings truer than with drug recovery and relapse.
Humans tend to repress and inhibit negative emotional memories, and emotional experiences in general.[145] Instead, we remember and replay the good, while forgetting the bad.
Imagine if it were otherwise. A vivid picture of all the pain, anxiety and hurt of all our yesterdays would be a heavy burden to bear.
While your mind may quickly suppress memories of the challenges overcome, ink on paper or words typed into a computer are durable. The best way to protect against complacency isn't by forgetting what bondage or recovery was like, but by accurately recalling them.
It's wise to make a record of both the reasons you want to break free and what the first couple of weeks were like. Consider sending yourself an e-mail before bed. And here's an example of why.
Imagine hitting what feels like a recovery plateau, where you no longer sense improvement. Imagine feeling stuck and wondering if it's going to remain this way for good, as if your rose bud stopped opening.
Now, imagine being able to look back and read your own progress notes. Like having a medical chart during a hospital stay, your record can provide accurate perspective of how far you've come.
It can help calm concerns that recovery has stalled. And although at times nearly impossible to see, I assure you, recovery's rose bud continues to slowly unfold.
Imagine the benefit of journaling each and every day. Imagine the relapse prevention benefit of re-reading your journal one, five or even ten years later.
Consider making yourself a present gift of future memory. Look at it as free insurance against complacency and relapse. A few memory-jogging notes when starting out could become invaluable during challenge, lulls or once complacency arrives.

Crowds of shuffling faces passed by Adilen Gutierrez as she placed an order for a tall iced coffee from the barista at Starbucks in Dolphin Mall.
She wore a dark green, buttoned-down shirt with a Bass Pro Shops patch. She was on break from an unusual, but vital, job: greeting customers entering the store and checking their weapons.
A table opened up, where she decided to chat, and a couple of Gutierrez's co-workers joined in.

"You see a lot of things working four years in a store like that," she said of the sporting goods and hunting supply store. "It's definitely tough at times because it can get scary pretty fast."
Proper firearm inspection is of the utmost importance, she said, and Gutierrez claimed to be at the top of her game. One of her coworkers, Vanessa Pasquier, agreed.
"Ady's a big help with those inspections," she said. "Whenever I'm having trouble inspecting a [customer's] gun at the greeter stand, she always helps me check it correctly."
Gutierrez recounted one shift a few months prior when a man entering the store with a handgun barely acknowledged her. He pulled out the weapon but refused to hand it over, choosing to prove it was empty by cocking the gun and pointing it directly at her.
"I thought, 'Oh my god, I could be killed if he's wrong and it misfires,'" she said.
On a separate occasion about a year back, another shopper purchased an airsoft gun, test firing it on the way out.
"The whole place jumped," Gutierrez said. "No one was sure whether it was a real gun going off or not."
Despite not turning out to be a real firearm, the fear was real.
"It was crazy because he did it in a flash," said Leo Martinez, another one of Gutierrez's coworkers. "And no one told him anything or stopped him from doing it."
For Gutierrez, that firsthand experience with potential danger has helped shaped her into the person she is today.
"Working here has definitely helped me to grow and mature," she said. "I've learned to be more careful with what life throws at you and to be better at reading people's body language."

The best (and worst) of 1993
Here are the biggest news, sport and entertainment stories of 1993…

Other news included an oil tanker carrying running aground near the Shetland Islands (resulting in 84,700 tonnes of crude oil being spilled into the North Sea and a major ecological catastrophe); and anti-racist demonstrations being held across London in response to criminal charges being dropped against two youths accused of murdering black teenager Stephen Lawrence.
In the world of sport, horse racing's big event 'The Grand National' (with a worldwide audience of 300 million people) ended in 'chaos' after many of the riders had failed to realise a false start had been called and had set off around the racetrack. The Jockey Club was forced to declare the race void; meaning bookmakers had to re-pay the £75 million in bets that had been placed on the race (and miss out on their biggest pay-day of the year!).

A very good deal in London. Cheap London Escort Agency is a proven choice for demanding men. Whenever I am in town I book my appointment with one of the girls from this agency and every time I am completely satisfied. They are wonderful and one of a kind!
My first visit to Cheap London Escort Agency was held a few months ago. I found the deal over the internet and quickly booked it because I liked one girl on the site. The first impression was very good. The girl offered me the highest level of service and made me feel great. Her skilful hands made an erotic massage, which instantly relaxed me and at the same time aroused. She knew how to excite me! My meeting with this girl lasted for 2 hours and at that time we did a lot.
Then I had several appointments together with the girls from Cheap London Escorts Agency and I am still willing to choose them. I have never been disappointed with the quality of customer service. In addition, girls have affordable prices and I think this is one of the big advantages of this agency. There was never any extra cost involved with the service.
Cheap London Escorts Agency is a good offer in London. If you are looking for an escort agency with beautiful and sexy girls and you do not want to pay very much for meetings with them, then this offer is also addressed to you. I will definitely use it more than once. You can call at any time and book your date.

The affordable rates of Escorts London Service Agency make it easier to spend time with the girls. Plus, more time means more fun.
I look forward to meeting another one of the hot blondes that are within the agency. Each girl has been better than the last.

Guest Post "On Drinking More Water" today from the lovely Alyssa Snow Callahan!
Greetings devout readers of the fabulous Savvy Sweet Potato blog! This is not Captain Cory, the Savvy Sweet Potato herself, but rather a friend/fellow grad student/life partner who is trying to venture into the realm of blogging. I'm Alyssa – it's nice to meet you. Curtsy. Gosh, did I just curtsy? How embarrassing.
Anyway, I am going to leave the real cooking up to chef Cory because she knows her way around a kitchen and is a vision with a spatula. But I would like to share some tips, tricks, and motivation on my journey to be the healthiest me – mentally and physically. I think there are always ways we can improve our health, and I try to make small goals every week or so to adopt better habits, ditch unhealthy behaviors, or just get back on track. Any change I've ever made for my health has been gradual – one goal at a time – to really make it stick for the long term.
The goal I've been working on for the last couple weeks is to drink more water. It's getting warmer outside and that only means one thing: I am going to start sweating more. Hopefully because I'm going to be more motivated to exercise outside in the beautiful sunshine, but also because I will be sitting in L.A. traffic with my back and legs sticking to my car seat. That's right – I am a major perspiration station. And then when I finally get to where I need to go, I'm drinking massive quantities of coffee and not drinking water. (Note: Coffee counts as fluid, but the caffeine can also dehydrate you, so it's not a good substitute for water. Trust me, I wish it were so.)
Realistically, we should all be drinking at least 8 glasses of fluid every day. (I'm talking tall glasses that are 8 oz. each.) This equates to 64 oz. or 0.5 gallon or 1.9 liters. And this is even if you aren't exercising. (Sweating from exercise and heat increase your needs even more.) That's a lot of water – but it's completely doable, I promise.
Why start a devotion to H2O? Well, your body and brain are mostly water, and replenishing that water is not only necessary, but can also make you feel better. I think we all know that dehydration headache from long days in the sun or at the beach, so avoiding headaches is a good reason for me. Drinking water can also help boost your energy and stimulates your digestive, urinary, and immune systems. Some even say it keeps your skin looking so fresh and so clean clean and decreases hunger.
My cat bought this water bottle once and reuses it. He's super cheap.
My main tactic is to set up benchmarks throughout the day and start drinking water early when I might otherwise rely solely on coffee. Here's the schedule:
- Water Bottle #1 (0.8 liter): I drink this in the morning while I'm getting ready and on my commute. My goal is to finish it before getting to class at 8 or 9 a.m.
- Water Bottle #2 (1 liter): I refill my water bottle when I get to class or use another one I stashed in my car. This time, my goal is to finish it by mid-afternoon or when I get home, depending on my schedule that day.
- Water Bottle #3 (varies): I'll also drink some water when I get home, with dinner, and/or after I work out.
My schedule aims high for drinking more than 2 liters of water, depending on my exercise schedule that day. Sometimes I don't finish Water Bottle #2 and I drink more water at home. And that's ok – it's just a goal. I've found that making these benchmarks really help me.
Here are some other tips I've heard of or have been trying out:
- Always carry a reusable water bottle with you and refill it at water fountains or the water cooler in your office. It makes meeting your goals so much easier and it's better for the environment that buying plastic disposable bottles.
- If you have a hard time getting through a large water bottle, use a permanent marker to write goals on the side of the bottle. For example, on a 1-liter reusable bottle, write "8 am" with a hash mark about two inches below the top, then "9 am" about two inches below that, and continue until the bottom. On the other side, you can make goals for the afternoon to ensure you're getting about 2 liters per day.
That plant is hogging all the fruit-infused water. Rude.
3. If you're not stoked about the taste of plain water, flavor it by using a fruit infuser water bottle. Chop up some lemons, limes, strawberries, oranges, cucumbers, etc., drop them in the water bottle, fill 'er up, and enjoy the sweetness. You an also make a large pitcher of cold water with fruit at home and take some on the go in that reusable water bottle you decided to start carrying around after reading Tip #1. Wink wink.
4. I haven't been doing it lately, but I love love love to brew hot tea (like green tea or ginger tea), transfer it to a large pitcher, add ice and stevia, and chill it in the fridge for days of enjoyment to come. Because you know I'm not shelling out money for pre-packaged iced green tea that I can just make at home for a fraction of the price.
If you have any tips for the hydration nation, leave them in the comments. I'd love to try them.
Until next time, make sure to drink up that good H2O.

Easter with Nan and Pop
We had a great Easter this year. Nan and Pop acted as the Easter bunny, and they did a great job. Amos (and Eric and I) loved eating all the candy.
The adults colored Easter eggs on Saturday night after the kids went to bed. Once again, Eric proved to be the scroogiest Scrooge of all holidays and fun. For some reason, I only took pictures of my own eggs (that's just rude), but there were some very good ones by Nan and Pop too.
We went to brunch at Zermatt in Midway on Easter afternoon. Brunch at Zermatt has been declared an official Horne tradition, and I couldn't be more thrilled. They have great food, great scenery, and really fun things to do.
We propped Maggie up at the table, she was so good the whole time. She loves being part of the action:
I kid you not, Amos was dipping his blueberries and blackberries in melted butter before eating them. He also had a "little" chocolate from the chocolate fountain:
This was the first time we've been there when the carousel was running and Amos got to take his first, of what I am sure will be many, rides:
It was a such a beautiful day, we decided to walk off our brunch (or at least a little bit of it!):

Seton Hall forward Herb Pope was ejected from the opening round of the Pirates' NIT opener against Texas Tech.
With 14:19 remaining in the first half, Pope was battling for position with Red Raider forward Darko Cohadarevic in the Pirates offensive end when the two players seemed to tangle with each other.
On the ensuing possession, Pope and Cohadarevic battled again, this time Cohadarevic ended up on the floor.
The ESPN broadcast stated that Pope threw a punch.
During the next media timeout, the referees determined that the punch was flagrant and ejected Pope.
Video replays showed that Pope hit Cohadarevic below the waistline.
"I didn't see it but clearly he must have deserved to go out in how adamant the officials were," head coach Bobby Gonzalez said. "But the only frustration I had was that it seemed like the first three or four minutes it was back and forth back and forth and he just got frustrated. But again you can't do what he did."
Cohadarevic told SNY's Adam Zagoria after the game that he has never experienced something like this, not even by accident.
"I just couldn't breathe for a second," he said. "When I was on the ground the second time, the referee kept saying, "Stop faking it, stop faking it.' I'm like, 'I'm not faking it.' I couldn't even breathe."
Pope was not made available to the media, but Gonzalez acknowledged that he did speak with him.
"Before I could even talk to him, he was in tears in the locker room apologizing to his teammates because he knew that he got frustrated and reacted," Gonzalez said. "He realized later on that he hurt his teammates by him not playing it hurt everybody and he felt bad about that."
Following the ejection, senior John Garcia filled in, playing 18 minutes in the game.
"He immediately came to me and apologized for getting kicked out of the game," Garcia said. "He's really emotional because he felt that he cost us the game. He kept apologizing, like 10 times. I told him, 'you know, Herb, I'm going to stick by you.' He just lost his cool."
The NCAA Basketball rules state "a fight is a confrontation involving one of more players, coaches or other team personnel wherein (but not limited to) a fist, hand, arm, foot, knee or leg is used to combatively strike the other individual."
Under rule 10, article 2 of the rulebook, "the first time an individual participates in a fight during a season (including exhibition games), the individual shall be suspended from participating in the team's next regular season game (not an exhibition contest), including tournament competition."
Athletic Director Joe Quinlan is not worried about a possible suspension of Pope for next year.
"I don't think so," Quinlan said. "It's unfortunate and it's not something that anyone wants to see."
This is not the first instance where Pope has been assessed a foul for rough play.
On Feb. 23, Pope was charged with an intentional foul with .5 seconds on the clock when he stopped a Rutgers player from dunking as time expired.
Pope was not ejected and the Pirates won the game 76-70.

T & Cs
1) The contract is made between the Visitor and the Owner of the property for which the booking is made, and is deemed to be made subject to these Conditions of Hire and the Booking Conditions and Information contained herein. Home from Home Holidays act as Agents for the Owners and are not principals. The acceptance of a booking from a Visitor creates a contract between themselves and the Owner of the property. Once the booking and Deposit have been received, the holiday booking is then firm, and the full rent will be required, even if you have to cancel your holiday (see clause 3 in these Booking Conditions).
1 (a) When submitting a booking via our online reservation system you will receive an automatically generated booking summary by email to the email address you provide in the booking field. This does not form a contract between us or the cottage owner. A contract shall only arise when your booking is subsequently confirmed in writing via letter of confirmation sent by post or email. By submitting an online reservation you are agreeing to the Conditions of Hire. The Conditions of Hire are available to view on our website and can be requested in writing from our office. Once the deposit and booking fee has been paid you confirm that you have read and fully understand their content and agree to be bound by their conditions.
2) Direct reservations to the office will be held for 7 days and officially confirmed once a Booking and /or an online payment of £200.00 has been received.
(unless otherwise stated) £150.00
(non refundable) £50.00
TOTAL PAYMENT REQUIRED £200.00 (inc. VAT)
The Deposit will be held against damage, breakages and extra cleaning if necessary. The Deposit may also be used to cover cancellation charges (see clause 3) and any outstanding gas, electricity and telephone charges calculated at the end of the hire period (as applicable). Home from Home Holidays will hold the deposit as agents for the Owner and the Owner will be liable to account to the Visitor for the full sum of the deposit less any deductions applicable pursuant to the Conditions of Hire and Booking Conditions and Information contained herein. Home from Home Holidays will hold all deposits in a client Bank Account and no interest will be payable to either the Owner or the Visitor.
2 (a) When a provisional booking has been confirmed, the Visitor is responsible for the total Rent, and payment is due 6 weeks prior to the start date of the Hire Period,. Where the agent has not received the balance by the due date an overdue reminder letter may be issued to the holiday maker and a charge of £25 will be added to the balance due. If the balance is then not received within 4 days of that reminder then the agent reserves the right to treat the booking as cancelled by the holiday maker (Section 3 will apply) and the holiday maker shall have no claim against the agent or the property owner for compensation or reimbursement whatsoever. For bookings made less than 6 weeks before the start date, the total amount is due at the time of booking, to include the Rent, Deposit, Booking Fee and utility charges and/or Pet Charge (where applicable).
2 (b) A £30.00 administration charge (incl. VAT) will be payable by the visitor if they wish to change their holiday dates and/or ferry booking after the Confirmation of Booking has been issued, subject to availability and the agreement of the owner.
2 (c) If any items left behind after your departure are to be collected from a property and/or returned, then a £30.00 handling charge (incl. VAT), plus postage and packing will be deducted from your returnable deposit.
2 (d) The Deposit, will be returned to the Visitor after departure, providing that everything is in order and all outstanding charges have been deducted, within 28 days.
2 (e) Payments can only be made by credit card or debit card as we are unable to process cheques. Credit cards will be subject to an additional 3% charge.
2(f) Visitors may pay by Bank Transfer to our Account at National Westminster Bank PLC, 107 St James Square, Newport, Isle of Wight, Clients Account Number 05077311, sort code 54-10-34, quoting the booking reference number as a reference.
BIC number: NWBKGB2L.
3) Once the booking fee and deposit has been paid and the booking has subsequently been confirmed, visitors are liable for all the charges of the holiday, as a binding contract has been deemed to be made between the holiday Visitor and the Owner. Any cancellation made by the Visitor (for whatever reason) shall be in writing addressed to Home from Home Holidays. The effective date of cancellation is when written notification is received. Home from Home Holidays will endeavour to re-book the holiday accommodation but a cancellation charge of £100 (inc. VAT) will be levied on the Visitor. If we are unable to re-book the accommodation, the Visitor will be liable for the full amount due even if the accommodation is not taken up (payment is due six weeks prior to the start date of the holiday). We strongly recommend Visitors arrange full travel insurance (including cancellation cover) as soon as they submit payment of their deposit and booking fee.
4) All Visitors must be named on the Booking Form. The Visitor must not sublet the accommodation nor share it except with those named on the Booking Form. Under no circumstances is it allowed for the maximum number of persons stated in the property description to be exceeded at any time. The Agent and/or the Owner reserve the right to terminate the Contract if the number of visitors is exceeded without notice and without refund and the whole of the Deposit would automatically be forfeited.
4 (a) Bookings will not be accepted from groups of single people under the age of 18.
4 (b) If your booking at any property has been accepted at a reduced rate for a smaller party, this is agreed strictly on the understanding that it will be occupied only by those persons whose names appear on the booking form. If you wish to accommodate further guests during your stay this must be agreed with the agent and any such approval will be subject to the payment of a further fee provided to the agent along with the names of the additional occupants and any other information that the agent deems necessary.
5) The details concerning the access arrangements for each property will be issued once the full rental payment has been received. The majority of properties will have a key safe located at the property. A code to gain access to the key safe will be provided approximately 10 days before commencement On the day of departure, keys must be replaced in the key safe, as detailed in your access letter. Please note: failure to replace the keys may result in a delay and deduction from your deposit return.

On the day of departure, keys must be returned as detailed in your access arrangements - BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE ISLAND. Please note: late return of the keys or incorrect postage may result in a delay and deduction from your deposit return.
5 (b) Home from Home Holidays can not be held liable for any matters arising from the mis-use or malfunction of the key safe box. All boxes are checked and deemed to be in a satisfactory working order at the commencement of all hire periods.
6) It is the responsibility of the visitor to satisfy themselves that the property is going to be suitable for the individual needs of all the members in their party. A full access statement and specific details relating to each property can be provided upon request and no claim for compensation will be considered by the Agent or the Property Owner should a problem arise which causes the hire period to be cancelled or terminated earlier by the visitor.
7) Linen is generally provided (unless otherwise stated). Where linen is not provided, please check the property description which will specify what you will need to bring. Beach towels are generally not provided (unless otherwise stated).
8) Visitors to all properties may take up occupation after 3.00pm (unless otherwise stated) on arrival and must vacate promptly by 10.00am (unless otherwise stated) on departure day. Please note: early arrival or late departure may result in a deduction from your deposit return.
8 (a) Home from Home Holidays can not be held liable for any matters arising from the condition or cleanliness of the holiday accommodation upon arrival. Whilst every effort is made to present the property to as high a standard as possible, it is not always possible to meet everyones expectations.
8 (b) Neither the agent nor the owner can accept liability for problems outside their reasonable control, such as breakdowns of domestic appliances, plumbing etc; although every effort will be made to rectify the problems as soon as possible.
8 (c) Neither the Agent nor the Owner can accept responsibility for work taking place outside the boundary of the property nor for any noise or nuisance arising from works or actions over which the Agent or the Owner have no control.
8 (d) Neither the Agent nor the Owner can accept responsibility for injury to an occupant, their guests or third parties (except in the case of death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence) or loss or damage to their belongings, their car or its contents.
8 (e) For properties hired with the benefit of a swimming pool, lake, pond or trampoline, the visitor confirms that no one will enter the pool / lake unless they are a competent swimmer, they will not dive into the pool/lake, they must check the depth of the water before entering, all children will be supervised at all times whilst using the pool / lake or around pond the pool / lake will not be used after consuming alcohol, no pets will be allowed to enter the pool / lake and that they will act responsibly at all times when using these facilities.

8 (f) The owner or agent can refuse to allow you into the property or ask you to leave the property with a minimum of 12 hours notice if they reasonably believe you or any member of your party are behaving illegally or are causing a nuisance or demonstrating anti social behaviour. Furthermore if the owner or agent believes that damage has, or is likely to be caused by any such behaviour then the hire period will be terminated by giving a minimum of 12 hours notice and will be treated as a cancellation by you and the visitor shall have no claim for compensation or reimbursement whatsoever.
8 (g) The visitor must allow the owner or their representative including workmen access the property at any reasonable time during the hire period. Whilst the visitor has the right to enjoy the property uninterrupted the owner and agent retain the right to inspect the property and arrange essential repairs where necessary in accordance with good estate management. You would get notice of this if it were required except in an emergency or if a problem needed to be sorted out quickly and you could not be contacted. In these situations the owner and agent can then enter the property at any time without giving you notice.
8 (h) We let several properties which were built before the days of damp proof courses and cavity wall construction. Although these properties tend to have more character and atmosphere they sometimes have a tendency to dampness. The Islands climate often produces warm moist air which can cause condensation particularly with solid stone walls. This problem can be helped by opening one or two windows to allow air to circulate.
8 (i) Where broadband and satellite television is an advertised feature please note that its provision is subject to availability. Network connectivity may not always be possible due to circumstances beyond the control of the owner or agent. Visitors are asked to observe a fair use policy during their stay in relation to internet download limitations. The owner reserves the right to charge the visitor any additional fees levied by their broadband provider for exceeding download limits. Visitors undertake to indemnify the owner for downloading illegal or copyrighted material and where applicable provide consent for their information to be passed onto the relevant authorities for further investigation. Visitors should have their own virus protection system and child protection measures.
8 (j) Dustbins must be emptied as per the recycling notices at the property. Please note: failure to adhere may result in a deduction from your deposit.
9) We hope that all Visitors booking holidays with us will have an enjoyable time. In the event of a problem the Visitor must contact Home from Home Holidays on the day of arrival or as soon as the problem arises and we will do our best to resolve the problem by referring it to the Owner. Please note: complaints will be not considered unless raised immediately during the course of the hire period to enable the complaint to be verified.
9 (a) All complaints and requests for refunds or compensation MUST be made in writing and addressed to the Cottage Owner c/o Home from Home Holidays, stating the date of the hire period and property in question. This will then be forwarded to the Owner of the property for their consideration. The Agent can not make arrangements for any refunds or compensation payments with out authority from the Owner. In the event of a dispute between Owner and Visitor the agent reserves the right to provide each party with the relevant contact details so that a resolution can be made between both parties.
9 (b) The Agent is unable to get involved in any dispute regarding the retention of any/all of the security deposit. The Agent is further unable to arbitrate deductions between Visitors and Owners and any query relating to such deductions should be made in writing directly to the Property Owner.
10) Visitors are asked to please leave the properties as they find them in a clean and tidy condition. Please note: any damage or breakages are the responsibility of the Visitor.
Please advise us of any breakages that occur by 5.00pm on the next available working day.
11) Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the description of each property and the details contained within our brochure and on our website, all information is given in good faith and is believed to be correct at the time of the brochures publication. Neither the agent nor the owner can accept responsibility for errors or omissions. In respect of advertising provided via web portals and by third party organisations, Home from Home Holidays is unable to accept liability for the accuracy and content of these advertisements. There may be small differences between the actual property and its description. This is usually because the owner and agent are always aiming to improve services and facilities.
12) All property details clearly state whether or not pets are allowed. Where permitted, pets should not be left unattended and all visitors must clean up behind them in a responsible manner. No guarantee can be made that the gardens or grounds of the hired property are secure enough for an animal to be left unsupervised and no liability can be claimed from the owner or agent if your pet suffers an injury or escapes and is subsequently lost.
Please note: failure to adhere may result in a deduction from your deposit. Please bring pets own bedding, and do not allow pets to sleep on any furniture or beds. A small charge of £35 per pet per week will be charged.
13) If for any reason beyond the Owners control the property is not available on the date booked, all rent and charges paid in advance by the Visitor will be refunded in full, subject to the visitor having no further claim against the Owner or their Agent.
14) Whilst every effort has been made to provide accurate property descriptions and accurate information, some properties are not suitable for the disabled, infirm or children, and should potential Visitors have any concerns, they should contact the Agent for further information. No refund will be given after the holiday has been booked. Any responses to requests for information are subject to clause 11.
15) The Letting created by this agreement is a Holiday Let within the meaning given in paragraph 9 of Part 1 to schedule 1 of the Housing Act 1988. This Contract is governed by English Law.
16) The agent can not accept responsibility for changes or closures to local services or attractions mentioned in the brochure or on its website.
17) Provided the visitor has not told the agent otherwise the agent may use the visitors personal information for marketing their services.
18) No liability can be accepted and no compensation will be paid by the Agent or the Property Owner, where the visitor or his personal property (and/or any person in the visitors party and/or their personal property) suffer any loss, damage, injury, disappointment, inconvenience or otherwise, or where the performance or prompt performance of any obligations by the Agent or the Property Owner are prevented or affected by any event which the Agent or Property Owner could not have reasonably foreseen or avoided including war, treat of war, riot, civil strife, industrial action, terrorist activity, natural disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, closure or international borders, disease, non availability of transport services, interruption to services/utilities and all similar events outside the control of the Agent or the Property Owner.
19) If you have any special requests you must let us know when you make a booking and confirm them in writing. Although we will try to pass any reasonable requests on to the owner we can not guarantee that any request will be met. Confirmation that we have noted a special request or passed it on to the owner or of the fact it is shown on your written confirmation or any other document is not confirmation that the request will be met. If agent or owner fail to met any special requests it will not mean the hire contract has been broken.
20) Home From Home Holidays do not act on behalf of any ferry company and whilst the Agent may make arrangements for you to travel to the Island via Red Funnel / Wightlink ferries we can not be held liable or responsible for any problems, damage, cancellations or any other matter which may arise from making such arrangements. The visitor may become liable for additional charges levied by the ferry operator as a result of cancellation or amendment of your original ferry booking. The agent is unable to enter into correspondence or arbitrate any disputes which may arise as a result of travel arrangements made with a third party. The agent also reserves the right to deduct any charges Home From Home may become liable to pay to a third party travel partner from any funds held prior to being sent to the visitor including their security deposit.

However, the embattled Fadairo had insisted that he used to touch the victim's breasts and buttock but she had never complained against such action from him.
Fadairo landed in trouble after he caressed Anu Felix's breasts and buttock with the desire to lure her into sex without her consent.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the action backfired as the victim was not in the mood for such and attacked Fadairo which resulted in serious beating and assault from the suspect on the victim.
The matter was reported to the police at Itire Division and Fadairo was arrested and taken to the station.
At the station, the victim alleged that the suspect assaulted her by touching her private parts and at the same time assaulted her.
P.M.EXPRESS gathered that Fadairo admitted that he touched her breasts and buttock and it was not the first time he was doing so to her and she never complained.
However, the police insisted that since he touched the victim without her consent, he committed a criminal offence and he was charged to court accordingly.
Fadairo was charged before Isolo Magistrates court for conduct likely to cause breach of public peace and assault on the victim.
