How Much Does Home Security Cost in Chantilly, VA?
There is a wide range of home security companies in Chantilly, VA, each offering its unique features, advantages, and of course, pricing. No matter what your home may require, there is provider out there with the solution for you.

Recently, wireless technology has transformed how people protected their homes with security systems. If you have no time to waste, a wireless home security system in Chantilly, VA is the fastest way to protect your home. There’s no need to drill holes or run wires, like you used to with a traditional system. All of the system components communicate wirelessly with the control panel, so you can easily move components around. If you have cellular service at your home, then wireless technology is a great choice. Your system can communicate with a monitoring center using a cellular uplink. Because there are no wires to cut, a wireless security system offers you added protection; a burglar can’t render your system inoperable in that way.
Today’s security systems offer homeowners a variety of options and features. Whether you need interior or exterior cameras, or more advanced types such as motion-activated or night vision, you can find one that will help you monitor practically any situation. Coupled with remote access to your home security system in Chantilly, VA, you can use your smartphone, tablet or computer to view live footage from your cameras. And you can even view previously recorded video. Motion-activated cameras only record when there is movement, saving you hours of blank footage. Security cameras are your roving eyes, letting you check on pets, children arriving home from school, and package deliveries at the front door.
When you leave your home, do you ever wonder if you remembered to turn the thermostat down or lock your front door? By using your smartphone, you’ll never have to worry again. You can check on both thanks to smart home automation in Chantilly, VA. Smart home technology places you in full control of the electronics in your home. You can control anything you connect wirelessly to your central control hub, such as lights, your furnace or a/c, and of course your alarm system.

Need used street stock tires in decent shape for Hardtops.
I know that most of the guys who run the old tires have probably piles to get rid of that you have only ran a few races (since the tire rule change this year). Well us hardtop guys are all about recycling and we need tires that are usable enough to run on our hardtops. This saves you the disposal fees and helps us out. Free or cheap is best and help get us more cars on the track a little. The other thing that would be nice is if someone could bug Scott into giving us a date to run our cars this year. Chris Kearns (Santa Maria's track promoter) has manned up with 2 dates he "REQUESTED" us to come and race with a possible 3rd later this year. Any and all help is appreciated. I check the website daily so PM me please with any help in finding usable street stock tires.
i have about 30 dirt bozz's. all are usable, some are worn, some look like new except the dry rot.
I would like to thank Clint Duncan and Brian Shepard for helping the Oakie Bowl Hardtops out with a donation of used tires this last weekend. We still need more tires. For anyine interested the Hardtops will be starting our season at Santa Maria Speedway this coming weekend April the 17th. We still need some help with securing dates for the OakieBowl itself, so tell Schweitzer you want to see us run soon. We have enough cars to field better then some of the other classes have faired this year and put on a good show for you racers and fans. Thank you for all your support over the years.
I will take you up on the offer and thank you. I will give you a call soon. Thank you sir.

Even though oxygen surrounds us in the air every day, sometimes our skin just doesn’t get enough, which means it can’t replenish itself quickly and ends up dull, lifeless, and tired looking. Some of today’s most popular facials seek to remedy that imbalance by giving skin a super-concentrated dose of what it needs most.
The latest upgrade to the cleansing and extraction a traditional facial involves is a pressurized blast of concentrated O2 that purports to rehydrate skin instantly, making it softer, firmer, and smoother. For those who can’t make it to the spa, oxygen has also become a ubiquitous ingredient in moisturizers and anti-aging cosmeceuticals, all of which promise to bring out skin’s best and keep it looking younger, longer. Augmenting facial treatments with oxygen has become one of the hottest beauty fads … but does it even work?
Aestheticians and some dermatologists claim that an oxygen treatment—in which a pressurized stream of oxygen is applied to the face with a wandlike device—is a godsend to anyone seeking clear, youthful, hydrated skin. “It dramatically speeds up healing,” says Rachel Fields, an aesthetician at Tru Spa in San Francisco, who has fifteen years of skincare experience. “You don’t leave [the spa] red, blotchy, or irritated.” The oxygen spray, applied after extractions, kills anaerobic bacteria that can cause acne, lessens redness and swelling, and stimulates collagen production; after an oxygen facial, devotees claim to enjoy clearer, brighter, more hydrated skin. In theory, the treatments work because the pressurized spray forces the oxygen more deeply into the skin, hydrating it and increasing its absorption of other beneficial antioxidants, such as vitamins A, C, and E, which are often used in conjunction with the treatment.
However, since the machines and nebulizers that deliver the hyperbaric mist don’t claim to rearrange skin’s cellular structure or treat a disease, they’ve never actually undergone rigorous clinical trials to prove their effectiveness, so some dermatologists remain skeptical about whether extra bursts of oxygen can really provide anything more than a quick pick-me-up. Fans of oxygen-enhanced facials don’t deny that the results are temporary, though. “The skin looks really great for a week or so, with more suppleness and fewer fine lines,” Fields says. But even if the benefits are short-lived, oxygen facials’ popularity has grown so much that many dermatologists are getting on the bandwagon, too, by offering the procedures in their own offices.

In a speech at the University of Michigan in 1960, John F. Kennedy challenged US college graduates to volunteer in underprivileged countries for the cause of peace. A year later the Peace Corps was established.
Since March 1, 1961, 220,000 Americans have served in one of the most impactful lasting legacies of Irish American President John F. Kennedy: the Peace Corps.
Established on this day 18 years ago, the idea for the establishment of the international volunteer organization first came from an impromptu speech by JFK at the University of Michigan in 1960. From here he challenged Americans to better the world and strive toward peace by volunteering in countries less privileged, not just educate but to live alongside their people.
How the quotes from a University of Michigan speech prompted Kennedy to establish the Peace Corps?
On October 14, 1960, at 2:00 am, John F. Kennedy, then a presidential candidate, arrived at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor expecting to get some sleep. Waiting for him, however, were 10,000 students eager to hear him speak.
It was here that he stood and challenged the students with an idea that has since captured the imaginations of thousands of Americans. He challenged them to give up pay or a salary for a period of time to volunteer in working towards peace overseas.
"How many of you who are going to be doctors, are willing to spend your days in Ghana? Technicians or engineers, how many of you are willing to work in the Foreign Service and spend your lives traveling around the world?
“On your willingness to do that, not merely to serve one year or two years in the service, but on your willingness to contribute part of your life to this country, I think will depend the answer whether a free society can compete. I think it can!
How JFK established the Peace Corps?
Just months later and now as the 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy signed an executive order on March 1, 1961, that established the Peace Corps and extended this challenge from Michigan to the rest of the US.
Three days later, R. Sargent Shriver became its first Director and by the end of that year, volunteers were serving in five countries. In just under six years, Director Shriver developed programs in 55 countries with more than 14,500 Volunteers.
Teaching in primary and secondary schools, especially as part of national English-language teaching programs.
Participation in the worldwide program of malaria eradication.
Instruction and operation of public-health and sanitation projects.
Aiding in village development through school-construction and other programs.
Increasing rural agricultural productivity by assisting local farmers to use modern implements and techniques.
Despite the lack of pay and tough conditions, many were willing to sign up for two or three years in the peace corps working on education of in agriculture.
JFK himself described it: "Life in the Peace Corps will not be easy. There will be no salary and allowances will be at a level sufficient only to maintain health and meet basic needs. Men and women will be expected to work and live alongside the nationals of the country in which they are stationed–doing the same work, eating the same food, talking the same language."
What was the first reaction to the Peace Corps?
John F. Kennedy established the Peace Corps in 1961.
US News questioned whether anybody would want to sign up but the US public was receptive from the start.
“Rafer Johnson, decathlon champion of the 1960 Olympic Games, was among the first to show interest,” they wrote on March 13, 1961.
“Early volunteers, put to work in the Peace Corps headquarters, were Sally Bowles, daughter of Under Secretary of State Chester Bowles, and Nancy Gore, daughter of Senator Albert Gore of Tennessee.
What does the Peace Corps do now?
The Peace Corps continues to work across the world, allowing US citizens, typically with a college degree, to provide technical assistance, helping people outside the United States to understand American culture, and helping Americans to understand the cultures of other countries.
Their global initiatives currently include the Let Girls Learn Initiative, the Stomping Out Malaria in Africa program, and the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).

View of the Dog Head Fire plume on June 15 from the house of APNM Deputy Director, Daniel Abram.
It wasn’t the two days of physically exhausting work relocating our family and all of our companion animals to three separate safe locations. It wasn’t the scrambling around the outbuildings of our ranch to find the right-sized crate for each animal. It wasn’t even the sense of panic and how it makes your thought processes freeze in their tracks.
The Dog Head Fire, which started June 14, 2016, in the Manzano Mountains, had spread to consume over 17,000 acres by June 15. There was a voluntary evacuation zone declared just a mile south of our home. When I called Bernalillo Incident Command to confirm, the dispatcher told me there was a good chance they would close Highway 217, the state road leading to our rural home and sanctuary near Tijeras in the East Mountains. Once that happened, you had to leave with everything you wanted to take, because there was no going back. That made the decision for us.
APNM has been promoting disaster preparedness for animals for many years. One would think that I, of all people – a member of the APNM staff, with a menagerie of rescued animals, including two donkeys and two large pigs that are not easily moved – would have had a concrete evacuation plan in place. I didn’t.
After the fire was contained and we were able to safely return home with all our animals, my family and I cleared out a shelving unit in the basement and stocked it with our grab-and-go packs. We are now ready to leave in an emergency, with clothes, animal food, toolkit, flashlights, cell phone chargers, the personal, nostalgic items we cannot live without, and insurance and other critical paperwork. We have a binder filled with resource information and phone numbers. Our animal crates are catalogued and labeled and now stored in one location.
I was that person who said to himself and others, “Yeah, I should really make a fire plan.” I am now that person telling others to do it. Do it today. I am not kidding. When it is upon you, it is terrifying.
I and our family offer our heartfelt gratitude to those who really came through for us. Thank you to Nancy McGeoghegan and Maxine Suazo for opening up their home to us and our dogs, cats, and birds. Thank you to Pamela James Lipponer for her trailer and safe haven for our donkeys and pigs. Thank you to Eberardo and Anne Lopez for helping us load the donkeys. Thank you to Brittany Stanforth and Bailey Beare for helping us crate and transport animals. Thanks to all the others who offered to drop everything and come help if it was needed.

text: Abstract: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of diet and exogenous enzymes on growth responses and micronutrient digestibility of broilers. Day-old broilers (n = 256) were distributed into a 2 x 2 factorial design and were fed on two basal diets: soybean (T₁) or canola (T₂) meals as such, or supplemented with enzymes up to 21 days. Feed intake (FI) and live weight (LW) to 21 days on the T₂ diet was higher (P < 0.001) than that on T₁. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) was better (P < 0.01) on T₁ than on T₂ at 21 days. Enzymes generally improved (P < 0.001) FI, FCR, and LW. The digestibility of histidine was higher (P < 0.05) on T₂ , but lysine digestibility was higher (P < 0.01) on T₁ at 21 days. Histidine, threonine, lysine, valine, isoleucine, and phenylalanine digestibility was improved (P < 0.05) in the supplemented diets. Mineral digestibility was unaffected (P > 0.05) by diet, but enzymes increased (P < 0.05) digestibility of P, K, Mn, and Cu at 21 days. The digestibility of Cu, Zn, and Mg was higher (P < 0.05) on T₂, whereas Ca digestibility was greater (P < 0.05) on the T1 diet. Broilers' growth responded positively to enzyme diets, probably due to improvement in nutrient digestibility.

Home » Newsroom » Media Releases » What is the value of intellectual property for small businesses?
The value of Intellectual Property to a small business can be essential to their existence. But what is Intellectual Property and why is it so important for a business to understand their rights and obligations in protecting it?
The Office of the Small Business Commissioner are encouraging businesses to learn more about Intellectual Property (IP), and through a free information session, hope to simplify what can be a difficult topic to navigate. From the early stages of an idea forming to the development of a prototype, varying levels of IP require different levels of protection and registration.
“Intellectual Property Law is detailed and complicated and most small businesses don’t have time to sift through the information to find what is relevant to them,” Small Business Commissioner John Chapman said.
This event aims to give personal and specific advice about the various areas of IP and where to turn for more help. “IP Australia offer some great online resources for businesses, but being able to speak with someone face-to-face is often an easier and more effective way to communicate the information,” said Mr Chapman.
“We often hear stories about business people who put their trust in the wrong hands were given the wrong advice about their IP, or are in a dispute over IP ownership,” Mr Chapman said. “It’s sad to know that this could have been avoided by speaking to the right people.” This event will provide businesses with valuable advice from an expert in the field of intellectual property and competition law.
Partner at Thomson Geer Lawyers, Josh Simons, will present this event which will explore what intellectual property is and the varying categories of intellectual property, common intellectual property mistakes by businesses and how to overcome them and relevant information on how to recognise, protect and enforce your intellectual property.
"In today's information age, intellectual property rights are often key commercial assets. The value of famous intellectual property like the NIKE trade mark, iPhone patents or copyright in music, movies and computer software is obvious, yet smaller businesses often don't appreciate the value in their own innovations” said Mr Simons.
“Understanding what intellectual property is and how to manage and protect it can mean the difference between success and failure, and should be a priority for all businesses."
The Protecting Your IP event is being held on Thursday 21 September 2017, 3:00pm – 4:30pm at the Small Business Centre Boardroom, Level 13, 99 Gawler Place, Adelaide and also being offered as a live webinar.
Registration is essential as places are strictly limited. For more information or to register visit the Office of the Small Business Commissioner website at www.sasbc.sa.gov.au/events or contact the Office on 8303 2026.

home » newsroom » media releases » what is the value of intellectual property for small businesses?
the value of intellectual property to a small business can be essential to their existence. but what is intellectual property and why is it so important for a business to understand their rights and obligations in protecting it?
the office of the small business commissioner are encouraging businesses to learn more about intellectual property (ip), and through a free information session, hope to simplify what can be a difficult topic to navigate. from the early stages of an idea forming to the development of a prototype, varying levels of ip require different levels of protection and registration.
“intellectual property law is detailed and complicated and most small businesses don’t have time to sift through the information to find what is relevant to them,” small business commissioner john chapman said.
this event aims to give personal and specific advice about the various areas of ip and where to turn for more help. “ip australia offer some great online resources for businesses, but being able to speak with someone face-to-face is often an easier and more effective way to communicate the information,” said mr chapman.
“we often hear stories about business people who put their trust in the wrong hands were given the wrong advice about their ip, or are in a dispute over ip ownership,” mr chapman said. “it’s sad to know that this could have been avoided by speaking to the right people.” this event will provide businesses with valuable advice from an expert in the field of intellectual property and competition law.

Nihon Kaifuku Anma or simply “anma” is the traditional Japanese method of massage. The term comes from the Japanese words “An” meaning “press” and “ma” meaning “rub.” The word Anma can also refer to the practitioners of nihon kaifuku anma.
Anma came to Japan through China and Korea, and may have originated in India. It has been a traditional medical practice and beauty treatment in Japan for at least 1300 years.
Anma is performed through clothes, with no oils or lotions. Usually, the recipient is seated or laying down on the floor or a low mattress. Anma sessions last between 30 and 90 minutes, with the shorter sessions used for addressing specific issues and longer sessions addressing the holistic health.
The Anma practitioner uses nine basic techniques during a massage: keisatsu ho (light stroking), junen ho (kneading), shinsen ho (vibration), appaku ho (pressure), koda ho (percussion), kyokute ho (special percussion), undo ho (movement therapy), kyosatsu ho (rotation) and haaku ho (squeezing). These stimulate key pressure points to release tension and help align the recipient’s ki, or energy flow (chi in Chinese). In addition to addressing physical complaints, anma seeks to balance the mental state of the recipient and can be useful for depressed or anxious people.
Some anma practitioners specialise in only a few of the nine techniques. Shiatsu massage grew out of such specialisation and is now considered its own form of massage.
Anma sessions also encourage deep breathing to promote whole-body wellness. This, along with the focus on energy flow, provides the basis of anma as a whole-body therapy.

Dr. Awesome was a UCB Theatre improv team that performed at Harold Night from 2001-2003.
The name that the team planned on using before their very first show was slated to be "Home Improvment." However, during a warmup before that show, where each member had to come up with a superhero name, Aaron Bergeron quickly came up with "Dr. Awesome" as his response. Original member Chris Fosdick liked the name so much that he suggested using that as the new name for the team.
The full original name of the team was "Doctor Awesome and his less attractive sidekick."
A form called "The Doctor Awesome Radio Hour" was being worked on with then coach Billy Merritt (and was performed in a nascent form at the Del Close Marathon) prior to the team's disbanding.
A fictional backstory to "Dr. Awesome" was that there was a pediatrician named "Dr. Kevin Awesome." It was widely believed that he was an incompetent physician.

You can shout out loud on all social media that your product is the best, write beautiful posts using selling techniques, sell it effectively, applying all those tricks and tips about beautiful photos and flatlays, that the digital marketers who run online courses speak so much about..
But are you sure that after purchasing your product and receiving it at home people will love it and want to order more or will recommend you to their friends?
When I was launching my handmade business, my first thoughts were exactly about the products. Perhaps, because due to my professional experience I knew already a lot about marketing, promotion, SMM etc, so I needed to decide what I can sell to make people happy, to help them experience great emotions when receiving their orders, to encourage them to speak about my products and recommend them.
Though my professional life for the last 20 years was all about banking, finance and investments, plus at some point several years ago I launched an online shop selling children's clothes and toys from popular and luxury brands, creativity has always been there with me. As a child and teenages I learnt a lot about handmade and crafts, I attended arts school and won prizes for 2 consecutive years at city painting contests. My mom is a fashion designer after all, so since I was a child I knew how to sew, crochet, knit, embroider, make clothes etc.
I gathered literally ALL that I have learnt during my life and first started with making baby keepsake boxes and then added creating artisanal journals, albums, books and travel wallets.
- do you have enough knowledge and skills to make high quality items?
- are you ready to invest money in premium materials to make your products awesome?
- do you have some really cool ideas on design and functionality of your products?
- will your products be trendy and catchy?
- will you be proud of your products?
Keeping all this in mind, you need to understand that you will create things not just to create them. You are obliged to make products that will speak for themselves, products that will stand out, that will catch attention of your potential customers, products that will cover certain needs of people, products that will be of high quality and great design. Products that will make you and their owners proud!
If you want to learn more about creating and launching handmade products, marketing tips for handmade business and all those little details that will help you to be happy with what you do and make, I invite you to subscribe to my newsletter below.
Or contact me directly for A to Z audit of your handmade business and one-to-one consultation service to help you succeed in what you do. Learn more about what I've managed to achieve just after 6 months of starting to make and sell my handmade products.
that will help you to grow your handmade business.
your artisanal products as my "thank-you"
I respect your privacy and will never send you spam. Neither I will share your details with any third-party company or person.

Stephen Colbert lampooned it. The Huffington Post highlighted some of its aggressive legal actions against small mom-and-pop charities. The Wall Street Journal headlined "Charity Brawl: Nonprofits Aren't So Generous When a Name's at Stake."
This unwanted recognition building over the past year is focused on Susan G. Komen for the Cure and the organization's sometimes aggressive and expensive legal battles to protect its trademark that covers not just its name but also the phrase "for the cure."
Komen's legal team has targeted charities such as "Mush for the Cure," a small dog sledding fundraiser in Minnesota and "Kites for a Cure," a family kite-flying event that raises money for lung cancer research.
Komen spokeswoman Andrea Rader, from the organization's Dallas headquarters, said misunderstanding surrounds this issue. The organization has been evaluating its position and expects to have a revised strategy for dealing with trademark issues in 30 to 60 days.
Rader said Komen sends a "respectful letter" when learning of other charities using "for the cure." She said Komen has not seen a decline in charitable donations but is aware of the large volume of negative comments on social media.
"It is unfortunate this is such a distraction to the work we are doing," Rader said, noting that sisters Susan Komen and Nancy Brinker grew up in Peoria.
With more than 2 million charities in the country, there are just so many words and colors that can be used, and legal wrangling about pink and "for the cure" begins to "sound ridiculous," said Laurie Styron, an analyst with the American Institute of Philanthropy. "This could really backfire if Komen takes it too far."
The American Institute of Philanthropy gives Komen a ranking of "B+" based on its financials. In 2009, Komen directed 74 percent of its total expenses to programs. It spent $17 to raise each $100 in public support. The American Institute of Philanthropy's top-rated charities direct 75 percent or more of total expenses to programs.
Sandra Minuitti, spokeswoman for Charity Navigator, which evaluates the operations of not-for-profits, said she is unaware of other charities that have a trademark on just a portion of their name.
Susan G. Komen for the Cure is maintaining its top, 4-star rating by Charity Navigator, but Minuitti warns that Komen's numerous legal disputes with other charities could risk alienating donors.
"Charities and for-profits have to protect their brand. Nothing is wrong with that," she said. "The risk is going too far. That's the road Komen is going down. There are more friendly ways to protect their brand than legal actions against even little mom-and-pop charities."
When donors give money to a charity, they expect it goes to the cause, not to legal battles, Minuitti said.
Ed Bond an associate professor of marketing at Bradley University, disagrees with the notion of being too aggressive in brand protection.
"Organizations invest huge amounts of time and money into establishing their brand and must protect it. With global organizations like Komen, I can see the need to be very aggressive. There is a huge risk. Organizations owe it to their customers to protect their brand in order to avoid confusion with other organizations over which they have no control," he said.
A statement on the Komen website insists its legal bills are much less than the nearly $1 million cited in news reports. The statement said Komen considers its action to protect its trademarks responsible stewardship of donor funds and total legal expenses have been $515,405, only a portion of which is for trademark protection.
Styron said $515,405 is based on Komen's 2009 tax filing and does not include expenses for all of last year.

During the holiday season, Social Security Disability recipients may consider taking on part-time seasonal work. However, sometimes taking a seasonal job can result in the loss of your disability benefits. Because of this, there are several things you should keep and mind and consider when considering seasonal work.
If you are considering seeking employment while receiving Social Security Disability benefits, it is important that you first consult with a Phoenix Social Security Disability attorney. The attorneys at Dayes Law Firm PC are well-versed in Social Security regulations, including those that pertain to part-time or seasonal work. We can discuss your specific situation during a free consultation.
A condition for being approved for Social Security Disability benefits and for retaining them is that you do not participate in substantial gainful activity (SGA). The primary test for determining SGA is the amount of income that you make. In 2017, the SGA limit is $1,170 for disabled individuals and $1,950 for blind claimants. In 2018 with the cost of living adjustment, the SGA limit for disabled individuals is $1,180 and $1,970 for blind individuals. If you earn more than this amount on average, then your benefits can be discontinued.
Not all wages will be counted toward this amount, though. The SSA deducts expenses from this amount that are necessary for you to work, such as adaptions to a vehicle to accommodate or training so that you can work while disabled.
The Social Security Administration (SSA) encourages disabled individuals to try to return to work when possible. It provides for a trial work period during which an SSD recipient can work while retaining his or her benefits for nine months during a five-year period. The nine months are not necessarily consecutive, and the five-year period is on a rolling basis. This exception to the SGA rule may allow you to test the waters before losing your benefits permanently. In 2017, earnings of $840 a month trigger a trial work period. The trigger point for 2018 is $850.
Another exception to the SGA rule is an unsuccessful work attempt. If you attempted to work a seasonal job but had to quit or were let go because of your disability, you might still be entitled to your benefits during the months when you worked.
If you do not report this information to SSA, you may face an overpayment or the loss of your benefits.
Deciding to return to work after receiving Social Security Disability benefits is an important decision and one that you should not take lightly. While a seasonal job may seem to be the answer to provide some additional income and purpose, there may be significant ramifications of which you should be aware.
The experienced Social Security Disability attorneys at Dayes Law Firm PC can discuss the advantages and disadvantages of seeking seasonal employment. They can also explain any exceptions to the SGA limit that you may be able to use to avoid losing your benefits. We provide a free, no-obligation consultation so that you can discuss your claim confidentially with one of our seasoned Social Security disability attorneys.

My wife and I were driving down a road near Last Chance, Colorado and we stumbled upon two rail cars previously used as outbuildings on an abandoned farm. I would like to know a little about the cars. Given just what is visible in the attached picture is there anything you can tell me about manufacturer or even approximate year (decade?) of manufacture?
Very nice find, the numbers would be above the doors inside the vestibule, did you make a note of them ? Otherwise we have no real starting point.
I plan to go back at some point. I do a little storm chasing and I'm always on the lookout for "found objects" for use in my shots. Maybe I'll take a Sunday drive and try to get some numbers if they are present.
All the builders tended to use the same styling in the same era; car building was highly competitive, and the railroads were as style conscious then as the automakers are today. Off the top of my head, I'd say the semi-elliptical arches date it to the second half of the last decade of the nineteenth century, or the first half of the first decade of the twentieth.

Ok sounds great, more external shots and plenty of internal shots would be great please, you may also find numbers on the inside walls above the doors as well.
I took other shots while I was there. The interiors were pretty much gutted. The car in the background appeared to be a dining coach or some such. The one in the picture seemed to be a passenger coach. I'll have to look to see if numbers are visible. If not I may go for a road trip if the weather is expected to be poor.
With the vestibule light vents on the roof end, I would say no later than the mid 1890's.
A fellow volunteer at the Colorado Railroad Museum informed me these are former D&RG cars, as they are cast in some of the remaining ironwork. I have looked for these carbodies but could not find them. Can you tell me what road these are off of Doug?
I'd like to hear your comments after you pay them a visit. There are two distinctly different cars. I'd be interested in anything you can glean (I.e., What the two cars are, how they ended up there, and etc...).

my wife and i were driving down a road near last chance, colorado and we stumbled upon two rail cars previously used as outbuildings on an abandoned farm. i would like to know a little about the cars. given just what is visible in the attached picture is there anything you can tell me about manufacturer or even approximate year (decade?) of manufacture?

Are you thinking of making the switch from writing articles to writing books? Your writing skills are established, so changing the form in which you write is easy. Discover how in this article.
Writing books (traditional books and ebooks) is easier than writing articles. This is simply because you need fewer ideas. A book is constructed around one central idea; with articles, you need to come up with a fresh idea and slant for each article.
So let’s look at how you can make the switch from writing articles to writing books.
Start by deciding on a word count for the completed book. If you’re a new novelist, for example, aim for a word count of around 80,000 words. Many publishers give you a word count to aim for in their guidelines. Be aware that this publisher’s word count is not a suggestion: it’s a rule, so stick to it.
If you’re writing an ebook, a good word count to aim for is around 30,000 words. In article terms, this equals around 60 500-word articles.
Thinking in terms of article word counts when you’re developing a book project makes the project seem less intimidating.
Next, write a blurb for your book. This is your book’s description. Keep it under 50 words. It’s vital that you create a blurb. Books tend to morph as you write them. A blurb gives you a destination; without it, you’ll get lost.
Visit a bookstore and read the blurbs on the back covers of books to see how a blurb is written, then write your own.
I plan most of my books with index cards. The cards are portable; I can toss a bundle of cards into my bag and take them with me. Then, when I get an idea for the book, I just fill out the cards.
Use your cards initially to create article titles. These “articles” will actually be your chapters.
Just like eating an elephant, you write a book a bite at a time. I always leave the file of my current book project open; I write 50 or 100 words here or there, and manage to complete the book while working with my writing students or copywriting clients.
You can do this too. Just fit writing your book into your day as best you can. Your index cards will come in useful here. I know one writer who wrote an entire book on index cards on the train to and from work; he transcribed his cards in the evenings at home.
So there you have four ideas to help you to make the switch from writing articles to writing books.

2015: A Most Confusing Year. Or was it?
I’m confused about many things which happened in 2015. Can anyone help me?
My end of year column for RT.com OpEdge. You can read the whole piece here.
My new piece from The Guardian on what we were watching in Britain thirty years ago- at Christmas 1985.
Christmas Day audiences were faced with a choice between Del Boy and Arthur Daley – but what else do the festive schedules tell us about the era we lived in.
It’s Christmas 1985. Mrs Thatcher has been in power for just over six-and-a-half years and – appropriately enough – those zeitgeisty wheeler-dealers, Derek “Del Boy” Trotter and Arthur Daley, are on the covers of the Radio Times and the TV Times.
You can read the whole piece here, while here is a link to last week's column.
Yalta, Potsdam, Helsinki, Belgrade. How can we build a more secure world order?
My write-up, for RT, on the International Public and Scientific Conference on peace, security and co-operation, held in Belgrade, Serbia.
The ongoing war in Syria. The rise of Islamic State. Terror attacks in Sinai, Paris, Lebanon, Iraq and Tunisia. The shooting down of a Russian jet by NATO member Turkey.
This was the backdrop of events to last week’s major international conference on peace, security and co-operation in Belgrade, Serbia.
Speakers from over 20 countries - myself included- addressed the key question: how can we build a more secure world order, where countries - large and small- respect national sovereignty and international law and where dialogue and diplomacy replaces war and the threat of war?
You can read the whole article, here.
Who backed Cameron & why? Will powers collide in Syria?

The Ghanaian lady at the centre of the raging cocaine scandal has pleaded guilty to the charge of trafficking and illegally possessing cocaine.
Nayele Ametefeh told a London Court Thursday she was guilty of the offence and would be sentenced on her own plea.
Joy News' George Wiafe who was present at the Isleworth Crown Court told Editor, Dzifa Bampoh the case has been adjourned to January 5, 2015.
According to him, the suspect addressed the judge via a video conference facility from prison where she is currently being held.
She was calm in her light green apparel and did not look too worried, Wiafe indicated.
Lawyers for Nayele were pushing for a quick sentence for their client but the prosecution insisted it had to amend the charges filed against the suspect.
"Nayele wanted to be sentenced today" Wiafe reported but the prosecution prayed the court to adjourn hearing in order to establish the actual quantity of substance carried by the suspect.
Media reports have pegged the quantity at 12.5 kg but the prosecution suspects it could be more or less and that could affect the actual sentence.
The judge agreed with the prosecution and adjourned hearing to January 5. The judgement will be given in 30 minutes, Wiafe reported the judge as saying.
Nayele Ametefeh was arrested at the Heathrow Airport on November 10, 2014, with substances suspected to be cocaine.
She was deemed to have breached Ghana's airport security after she was aided by top officers within the Foreign Affairs Ministry and airport security.
She is said to have used the VVIP with her two other accomplices, Nana Akua Amponsah and Sadalia Nuhu, prior to boarding the British Airways flight.
The three state officials, Abiel Ashitey Armah, Theophilious Kissi, and Ahmed Abubakr, who aided and abetted the suspects have also been picked up and would be arraigned before Ghana's court.
