Debi's responsiveness was great ...
I just wanted to let you know that I appreciated how you worked with me during my home-buying experience. Debi Braswell Warren was very helpful. Debi's responsiveness was great and, even in today's fast-paced market, she kept me informed throughout. The fact that you have a partnership with Lytle Law was beneficial as well. It simplified much of the process.
Randy Cole

Bow & Jennifer Chadwick
Outstanding Agent
Mrs. Warren is an outstanding agent, a young lady that listens and also gives some good advice. A good friend. Happy that I had her for an agent. She listened to me on what type of home I was looking for and explained what to look out for when we looked at different residents. Everyone was wonderful from my agent, to the mortgage lender and Lytle Title.

Go above and beyond. She really went out of her way to help purchase this property as it was quite a difficult deal full of negotations. Cannot praise Debi enough. She is an outstanding asset to your company. I have kept Debis card so that, the day I am ready to sell my property, she will be the one to call.

When working with Debi, it was as if we were her only clients!
She was prompt to return texts or email. She had her fingers on the pulse of Newport News. Debi could quote facts and back them up with written facts. She was very helpful in regard to repairs and cosmetic improvements that matter and how to stage our home for a successful sale. Debi also helped guide us in the initial pricing of our home for an effortless sale. In short, she knew her profession well and guided us through the process as only a real pro could!

She has more than surpassed our expectations!
Dear Liz ~ My husband and I wanted to let you know how happy we are to have found a wonderful realtor, Debi Braswell Warren. She has more than surpassed our expectations! We previously had an investment property and our personal residence listed with another realtor, but was not satisfied with the results. Debi came to our rescue and shared the Liz Moore plan for listing and selling property. As a result, we decided to give Debi a chance to list our investment property. 2203 McSweeney was sold in eleven days! Wow! We were thrilled and so excited that we decided to list our personal residence with her, too. What else could we do? Debi is a true professional. She listens to her clients and puts their interests first. We are proud to say that we recommend her to everyone we know because we are (Sold) on Debi!
Rubin and Sandra Eatmon
...very pleasant...
She was very pleasant, professional, informative and helpful!
Marybeth Baker
Debi made the selling process less stressful!
I had previously listed my home and it sat on the market for 6 months. With Debis guidance, we had a contract in less than 2 months and closed a month later! My home required several repairs: Debi found reputable contractors, provided estimates, and was there when the work completed- and all before the closing date! Debi explained each step of the selling process and I appreciate all that she did to not only market my home, but to get it sold!
Kiersten Wright
I can rely on Debi 100%!
I can trust her. All of the transaction was done while I was overseas. I was able to rely on her because I know she would represent me 100% for my benefit. I am sure your firm knows she is a great asset. I will definitely refer her to all my friends and relatives.

I have purchased and sold over 20 homes in my lifetime, and Debi, without a doubt, is one of the best real estate professionals I have ever encountered.

First Time Home Buyer
As a first time homebuyer, I faced a lot of uncertanity, questions, and stress going into the home buying process. Debi has a very upbeat attitude and her friendliness is very catching, it really make the home inspection, visiting potential homes, and even reviewing the contracts enjoyable. She helped get my questions answered and helped me understand the whold process which was very important to me. With Debi's help, I was able to feel confident that I was making the right choices and getting the right answers to my questions. Also, I can't say enough about how hard Debi worked to stay in close contact with me and go the extra mile, that really meant a lot. She was able to make accommodations to let my friends and family look at the potential houses with me, I belive this relaly made me feel comfortable and feel I made the right decision. I would highly recommend Debi to anyone buying or selling a home.
Bradley Grubbs
Eagle Sound, Yorktown
Debi was the best real estate agent we could have asked for.
We live in Texas, and I visited Newport News once to look for houses. Debi took me to half a dozen, at my pace, which was quick and efficient. By the time I left, I knew the neighborhoods and the housing market well. When I left, Debi acted as my eyes and ears, taking videos of half a dozen houses for me and sending them to me. She was so thorough that my wife and I made an offer on a house without having physically seen it. The house needed work after the inspection. Debi worked with me to make amendments to the contract. She was quick, attentive, and precise. She arranged for contractors to do the work, letting them into the house and updating me on their progress. I always knew what was going on, and Debi was on top of everything. She negotiated for us, worked for us, and communicated with us. Debi was a household name to our kids, and she felt like a good friend. She really worked with us, and we could trust her. I would recommend her to anyone.
Chris Tweedt
Debi did a great job!
She walked me through all the steps of buying my first house. She always answered/returned my calls, even during non work hours. I will refer Debi and Liz Moore & Associates in the future.
Christopher Shenk
Debi was simply an amazing agent.
She took a big scary experience I wasn't sure I was ready for and made it easy, and enjoyable. She was almost always available, informative and comforting. We were locked into buying a house, and things were going well until the appraiser came in and valued the house at $20k under what we agreed upon. The sellers backed out, and I had just under four weeks to move. Debi found a better house in a better neighborhood, and got us to close in three weeks. She did this while I was crawling out of my skull with anxiety, and she did it with a smile. I love my new home and she made that happen.
Kyle Moore
Debi was Awesome!
She got us in our new house and sold our old house almost before it was listed. Got a buyer less than a weekend. Class A employee!!! Debi was outstanding in responsiveness, preparation, knowledge and negotiating skills. Debi did so well, we would highly recommend her and Liz Moore & Associates in the future.
Joseph Land
Thank you Debi!
I was happy with Debi. Everything progressed smoothly and she stayed on top of things and kept me posted on all the developments of the whole procedure. Thank you Debi.
David Brown
Debi is a top-notch negotiator!
Debi is a top-notch negotiator who fought for us through the entire sale, saving us over $10,000!! When problems arose that seemed to destroy the contract, she worked non-stop until the contract was signed. Debi is a dream come true! She treated us like family and was always there for us from the very beginning. What really sets Debi apart from the rest is her passion and expertise. She has an amazing eye for staging, which made all the difference! We couldn't have sold our house without her!
Christina Metcalf
Debi received a 5 Star *****Rating!
Debi has helped me purchase two investment properties. With each, Debi provided great service before, during and after the closing. Debi's attention to detail and service are the best I've seen. She will be my first call for my next purchase.
Debi Was Fantastic
My son, lives in Newport News and I live in Goochland County. I was very apprehensive about him buying his first home without being with him. Debi was fantastic. I can't say enough good things about her. She led him step by step through the process. She not only helped him but continually updated me on how things were going and even answered all of my questions. I have bought and sold three homes with different real estate agents. Never did I feel as free to ask questions. Never did a real estate agent go with me to closing, it was always handled at the lawyers office with no agent. She went above and beyond the normal call of duty finding hidden cost about some of the condominiums that we would never have know about. If you want to buy a home and know the agent is on your side to help you find the home that is right for you and help you understand every detail from start to finish, Debi is the agent you want!

Debi was Wonderful!
I just want to say thanks for everything one more time. You were so on top of everything and I appreciated all that you helped me with. You helped me so much whenever I had doubts or questions. You kept up my hope and faith that it would sell. You are wonderful! I hope to meet you some day whenever I visit my brother in Virginia. I can tell you love your work and you have such a great attitude. With great admiration and appreciation and thanks,

Debi Warren is the professionals Professional!
Debi provided great advice and marketed our house to sell fast. Her photographer and videographer captured our house beautifully. The write up she posted expressed our love for the house and the neighborhood accurately. Debi responded to all of our emails and calls in record time. The results? We had a contract in under 2 weeks! Amazingly enough, Debi and her team kicked into a higher gear to help us prepare for the closing. I credit Debi with the fast sell and helping us get our requested price. We will be looking to buy another house in about a year and Debi Warren will be the first person we call. Review Rating: 5 Stars*
Debi always had time for me!
This was my second time around. The services provided at Liz Moore and Associates are exceptional! Debi always had time for me! Not only will I utilize Debi?s services, but I will refer others as well! Debi Warren is the best!!!

Liz Moore and Associates are very lucky to have a caring person like you on their team!
I just wanted to drop you a quick note just to let you know that I cannot begin to thank you for all of your hard work & perseverance in helping my family & I to find a great home. As you know, the real estate market can be very complicated and scary for a first time homebuyer. Now I know the importance of having a professional agent on your side. I?m sure every time I walk through my front door, I will be grateful for valuing your sound advice. You were always available to answer any question I had and yes, I know I had many!!!! I?m sure there are not many agents who will go beyond the call of duty like you. Thank you for holding my hand from beginning to end, because I know, I could not have done this alone. It has been a pleasure and joy working with you and as I told you many times before, if I ever need an agent again, I will definitely call you. Also, if I know anyone who does, you will be highly recommended by me. Liz Moore and Associates are very lucky to have a caring person like you on their team.

I have and would recommend her to friends!
Debi Braswell Warren has been our realtor for two homes and has done a fair and honest job. She kept us informed, even when it was a tough situation. I have and would recommend her to friends. Something that impressed me was her professional appearance, and her ability to compromise her time with ours. She was always available, and when we moved before our home was sold she even got our mail and forwarded it, when the post office did not. Unlike some realtors she was even present at our closings, so if we had questions, she was able to explain even that process to us. I also appreciated the way that Liz Moore and her associates made themselves available and put themselves on line when necessary. They made selling and buying an easier experience.
Channing & Jill Naughton-Williams
The cooperation of a real estate professional like yourself makes any transaction that much more enjoyable!
John Graham and I want to thank you for your professionalism in getting the property closed located at 228 Lane Crescent. The cooperation of a real estate professional like yourself makes any transaction that much more enjoyable. We appreciate your dedication to getting the job done, and hope we get the work together again soon. We made a great team.
Reney M. Olson
I really do appreciate our association...
Congratulations to one of my very favorite realtors! (Earning a Virginia Peninsula Association of Realtors ~ Outstanding Salesmanship Club award each year I?ve been in the business.) Having been involved with real estate for many years I can assure you that this is a special achievement, for which you can be very proud. Thanks for all your support in the past. I really do appreciate our association and look forward to seeing you soon.

Amy Derby
Debi did an Amazing Job!
Debi was very prompt in making the initial contact with us. She quickly set up times to look at houses. Debi went far above and beyond her responsibilities in negotiating with a loan company and ultimately securing a loan for the house. Debi always kept us in the communication loop and ultimately made it possible for us to close on the property. Debi is a very hard worker and she was a very great person to work with and if ever we look to sell or buy another house, we will definitely like to work with Debi again.

Debi is very honest, trustworthy and professional!
It was a true pleasure to have Debi as our realtor. She has great ideas for staging and getting the house ready for the market. Her knowledge of what buyers are looking for is on point. Her contacts for flooring and roofing contractors was very helpful. Everyone at Liz Moore was so courteous, helpful and professional. They all truly made the selling process so simple!
Windle & Courtney Day
...she is a professional agent who treats you like family!
Trying to sell my home, find a larger one, AND plan our wedding left little time for anything else. I contacted Debi Braswell Warren for assistance. We trusted Debi to handle all of the details in selling and buying a home because she goes the extra mile to satisfy her clients. My home sold in just a few days, and we began the search for OUR new home. It wasn't easy in today's market, and time drew close for the wedding day. But Debi's tenacity and expertise in real estate paid off when she found exactly what we were looking for. And for less money than we had expected to pay! We were up late, but Debi kept at it and secured a contract for us that night. I would give my highest recommendation for Debi's services as she is a professional agent who treats you like family.
Steve & Leslie Canup
Debi is a great person and a great real estate agent.
Debi will work for you in the best way. We lived in Texas, and Debi went to houses we selected, took videos, and sent them to us. She helped us negotiate a price just hundreds below the next highest bidder. She worked directly with me to amend the contract for inspection repairs. Her recommendations were always right on. She arranged for local, trustworthy (and inexpensive!) contractors to come out to the house and prepare estimates and do repairs. She responded to texts and emails way past business hours. She solved problems for us as they came up with minimal effort on our part. I am very skeptical about real estate agents, but Debi earned my trust and acted in my best interest the whole time. 5 Star Rating!
Great Communication Skills
Great communication skills. Very knowledgable and honest.
Debi was amazing!
She offered us great advice before we put the home on the market and it helped us get a full price offer in under a week! She allowed for a very smooth sale! We will refer Debi and Liz Moore & Associates in the future.
Jessica Scott
Debi did everything perfectly!
Debi was great to work with and we have referred her to many of our friends who are looking to buy or sell. Debi's attention to detail and her willingness to respond/work at any hour of the day was most valuable

She listened to what our needs were and worked hard to have them met!
I felt Debi was a great realtor and would suggest her to others. She listened to what our needs were and worked hard to have them met. The break down of how much our house is worth and why was most valuable.
Mark & Gretchen Heinrich
Debi was the best!
I would highly recommend her to any of my friends. She kept the faith and the prayers that our house would sell. We couldn't have found a better agent. Everyone needs Debi's energy and positive attitude. She was outstanding and I will refer Debi and Liz Moore & Associates in the future!
Sherry L. Kent
Eagle Harbor, Ise of Wight
Ms. Warren
I can't think of a better "partner" to have brought me through the selling process. Debi was able to deliver a lot of complex information about the selling process in an easily digestible manner. She was very good in the way that she introduced new information along the way, at each step, so I never felt overwhelmed by what I needed to learn to get a successful sale and closing. Her communication skills were superb!
Jean M. Hecimovich
Michaels Woods, Hampton
Thank you Debi for being such a Great Realtor and Person to work with!
Debi worked with me through the frustrations, emotions, difficult decisions, and best of all, excitement of buying my first home! Many people were skeptical because I was a 24 year old female trying to buy a house on her own... But you actually treated me as an adult who was looking to make an investment. 11 months ago you brought me to my house and as soon as I walked in, I knew it was perfect! 366 days ago, you sat with my dad and I as we went through all of the overwhelming paper work involved. So thank you, for looking past my age, keeping any doubts hidden, working with me to find my perfect first home, and always making time for me! I am lucky to have met you and lucky to have such a wonderful realtor and especially friend!
Devon Cannell
Debi was fantastic!
She was professional and knowledgeable. She answered every question quickly and clearly. Debi has a great personality. She kept us informed and up to date even when we were miles away in Louisiana. She did everything! She left no question unanswered.
Doyle Blasingame
Debi went above and beyond for us!
We changed locations from the peninsula to the Southside in the middle of working with her and she accommodated us even though Virginia Beach was out of the way most of the time. Debi showed us a LOT of houses. My husband and I were pretty picky but she worked with us. Everything went smoothly once we found a house. Debi will always be my go to person to refer because she's so friendly and also very knowledgeable.

In order to sustain and expand air service offerings from GPT, we are focusing our marketing efforts to ensure key businesses within the region are choosing GPT for their business travel. We wanted to think outside of the box and develop a unique program.
Gulfport, MS (PRWEB) January 10, 2012
Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport (GPT) is joining forces with Thanks Again, LLC to introduce the GPT Elite Business Rewards Program, an exclusive frequent flier program created specifically for qualifying businesses on the Gulf Coast. From January 1st through September 30, 2012, GPT Elite Business Rewards members can earn significant bonus miles for simply using GPT as their airport of origin. These elite miles are in addition to GPT's standard rewards program where members can earn one bonus frequent flier mile per dollar spent at participating shops, restaurants and parking areas at GPT. Plus, all miles awarded under this program are on top of miles earned directly with the airline and/or credit card company of choice.
"In order to sustain and expand air service offerings from GPT, we are focusing our marketing efforts to ensure key businesses within the region are choosing GPT for their business travel.

With more than 100,000 active program members nationwide, the Thanks Again program offers a secure card-linking technology that makes the online enrollment process safe and seamless. To begin earning miles, participants must select and enter their airline frequent flyer account number and then register their credit or debit card of choice. Membership is free.

What are you doing to you body? Get an app to remind you to take it, then you don't have to worry about it. The morning after pill is going to really mess your cycle up. You might not have a period at all this month. There are other methods of birth control too. The implant, the shot, and mirena you don't have to remember daily.

Even if we do say so ourselves, we are the property experts when it comes to buying and selling a property. Our roots are residential property law, where RG began. We have put together an outstanding property team to deliver results that put a smile on your face. What's more, we use state of the art computer technology to reduce transaction times and increase the certainty of our transactions. If you want to be in control when you are buying or selling a property then contact us.
To enable us to start work on your sale or purchase transaction we ask for an upfront payment. This payment is called a "file opening fee" and must be paid to enable work to commence on your transaction. If your sale or purchase falls through, through no fault of your own, your file opening fee is transferable to an identical transaction. This can only be done once, should your sale or purchase fall through a second time you will be required to pay a new file opening fee.
In the unlikely event that your sale or purchase does not complete, you will not be required to pay "our fee" set out in your personalised Terms and Conditions of Business. However, if you have incurred any disbursements/third party payments you will have to pay for these.
No completion no fee only applies to your first aborted sale or purchase. Should a second, third etc. sale or purchase fall through, you will be charged "our fee" for the work we have undertaken and if you have incurred any disbursements/third party payments you will have to pay for these.

Today was just another day in my life as a single mother. Frustrated is the only word I can think of. Most of my frustration comes from watching my ex husband living is life like it's golden. A couple people have informed me he's been partying it up with his new girlfriend. It's not the girlfriend part that bothers me it's the fact he has abandoned his son. Who does that?
I am kicking ass in the kitchen! Last night I made a wonderful chicken alfredo that was awesome. I'll tell you what, husband #2 will never go hungry lol.
Tonight I am going to have a little wine and forget my troubles….this can't be life…..

Solomon Allen: Father left infant in unlocked, running car for 90 minutes at gym – Details
- Updated: May 2, 2016
Solomon Allen accused of leaving infant in car while he worked out at gym for 90 mins.
A 25-year-old man was arrested and charged with child endangerment on Friday, after he left his 8-month-old daughter in an unlocked car, engine running, in the parking garage of a North Hollywood 24 Hour Fitness gym for 90 minutes, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The man, Solomon Allen, is a personal trainer, left his baby girl unattended in the car while he worked with a client inside the gym, according to KABC.
A maintenance worker in the garage found the baby on Friday morning, and called LAPD to report the abandoned child just before 9 a.m. The man heard the baby's cries in the garage, and was astonished to discover the child alone in a running car.
Paramedics were able to quickly rescue the baby from inside the vehicle, and the baby was transported to a nearby hospital for a checkup. The baby was fine, and was released to her mother later the same day.
"It's extremely careless and it's very selfish to leave an infant that's 8 months old in a car with the motor running, unlocked in a parking structure at a public business," LAPD Captain Stephen Carmona said to KABC.
As for Allen, he is being held on $100,000 bail and is scheduled to be arraigned on May 25th at the Van Nuys Superior Court.

(Full Disclosure: Chris is a staff member at The Ace of Geeks. In fact, he's written some amazing stuff for us…which is even MORE reason for you to support this.)
If you're me, the "Dragons fighting F-15s" was enough for you to be mashing the link below and throwing youroney at the screen, but let's break this down a little more.
There's a few days left in author Chris Brecheen's kickstarter for their new novel, Triexta, and we think you should go support it. Check out some details:
Chris is the talented author behind the blog Writing About Writing, where you can head to find most of his stuff, including his fiction. But this new project sounds really exciting. Chris is using the lens of (Sub) Urban Fantasy to shine a light on some very popular tropes in our favorite books, AND giving us knock down drag our magic versus tech fights. And he's planning on giving the entire novel away for free.
He's already shattered his initial funding goals, but this next stage is the one people should most support. The more money he's able to raise, the more likely it is that we'll get the book sooner. Think of it as your opportunity to stick it to George R. R. Martin and Patrick Rothfuss all at once.
Check out Triexta right here, there's only a few days left.

The origins of Monaco RV can be traced back to Junction City, Oregon, where Ray Mehaffey founded the Caribou Manufacturing Company in 1968. In just over 25 years, Caribou had designed and produced approximately 1,000 high-quality campers, many with individualized floor plans.
Caribou began manufacturing a mini-motorhome called the Monaco in 1971. Having established a reputation for including deluxe features and accommodations in all its previously built campers, Caribou designed the Monaco for comfort and luxury. The mini-motorhome soon became the best selling mini-motorhome across the United States, and in 1977, the company's name was changed to Monaco Coach Corporation.
Today, Monaco is one of the leading manufacturers of premium motorcoaches with impeccable performance and unparalleled accommodations. The Monaco line of luxury recreational vehicles has grown over the years to become one of the world's preeminent RV brands.

One thing I found frustrating when I self-published my first novel, Mercury Falls, in 2009 was the difficulty in finding people willing to review the book. I knew I had written a good book and I was convinced that if I could get it in the hands of a few dozen influential people, Mercury Falls would be a success (at the time, I defined "success" as 1,000 copies sold; since then Mercury Falls has sold over 60,000). After the success of Mercury Falls, I worried a little less about the difficulty in finding reviewers, but it continued to be a problem, particularly with my self-published books. I found myself spending hours scouring the web for the email addresses of book bloggers and Amazon reviewers–and when I got finally got around to actually emailing reviewers, most of them either wouldn't respond or would decline my offer of a free review copy of my book. Some of them even got offended by the offer, and took the time to berate me for emailing them. The unmitigated gall of offering a free book, with no strings attached!
I kept thinking, "There have to be thousands of people out there who would love to get free books for review. Why is it so hard to find them?" It seemed to me that there should be an online clearinghouse for connecting authors and book reviewer–a sort of OKCupid for the book reading community. I couldn't find any such site, though, so I decided to use my skills as a web developer to create one. The result was a site called BookBloggers. The site was an immediate hit among both reviewers and authors.
Around the time BookBloggers began to take off, so did the sales of my books. I was doing so well writing books that I decided to write full-time, which meant putting a lot of other projects–including BookBloggers–on hold. In retrospect, I wish I had kept it going, but I just had too much stuff going on. Lately, though, I've decided to re-launch BookBloggers, for a variety of reasons. Customer reviews, particularly on Amazon.com, are more important than ever. And with all the turmoil going on in the publishing industry, I think it's vital for independent authors to maintain direct communications with readers, outside of Amazon or any other publishing/bookselling behemoth.
So if you are an author or someone who likes to read and write about books, please consider signing up for BookBloggers. You can post books (either paperbacks or ebooks) for review, or request books to review. (Note that being a "book reviewer" is not as big a deal as it sounds: basically you just have to read the book and post a few sentences on Amazon.com, Goodreads, or some other site. Simple.) The site is still in beta, so if you run into any problems or have suggestions for improvements, please contact me by using the form on the site or by emailing me at rob(at)robertkroese(dot)com. I'll be working to improve the site over the next few weeks, as well as expanding the number of books available for review.

Is the F-35 the Right Choice? Maybe Not for Canada
Pierre Sprey, was interviewed for his opinions on the Lockheed-Martin F-35 as an aviation expert and defense analyst back in November of 2012 on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's (CBC) show, "The Fifth Estate".
"The F-35 was born of an exceptionally dumb kind of piece of Air Force PR spin," says Sprey. "It's a turkey. It's an inherently terrible airplane."
Sprey is one of the original members of the U.S. Air Force's "fighter mafia", led by the famous fighter pilot and military strategist, Col John "Forty Second" Boyd (see "Boyd, The Fighter Pilot Who Changed the Art of War", by Robert Coram).
He was a significant contributor to the A-10 program and the 1970s-era Lightweight Fighter (LFX) program, which led to the F-16 and F/A-18. Sprey's opinion is one that adds depth and experience to the debate over the F-35 program.
Sprey's expert opinion has some in Canada, much the same as we are in the United States, questioning whether the F-35 is too expensive and not useful enough.

ALTO, Mich. -- ``Senior Supreme`` lives up to the name. When he appears in the barnyard, females in this northern Michigan llama herd flock like groupies around a rock star.
Poor ``Punkin,`` a gelded male that poses no competition with the ladies, submits to Senior`s obligatory show of dominance. A heck of a way to treat a herd member so loved he was picked to be flower-bearer at his owners` wedding last summer.
But, Senior is the prime breeding male among the 35-animal herd, says owner Dorane Strouse, 44, who puts the regal animal`s value at somewhere between $35,000 and $40,000. With rank goes privilege, even among llamas, he notes.
Strouse retired four years ago from an executive vice presidency at a Grand Rapids insurance firm to raise llamas full time after he learned what a lucrative venture it can be.
He says the value of his herd has increased about 25 percent each year, with people now willing to pay up to $8,000 for a weanling female and nearly twice that for one that has been bred.
``Demand still exceeds the supply,`` he said. ``Since they are so easy and inexpensive to raise, a lot of horse people are getting into llamas now.``
The appealing animals are fast becoming a craze among well-heeled ``hobby farmers,`` Strouse says, in part because there are tax advantages and also because of the social aspect of owning such pricey animals.
He estimates there are now about 12,000 llamas in the United States and Canada. Most of them are descended from a herd imported in the 1920s by newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst for San Simeon, his castle home in California.

Oxford Institute of Retail Management
The ways in which shoppers choose to shop are fundamentally changing, and so the continued importance of physical locations for retailing has come into question. Three important drivers of this change are urbanization and the attendant growth of an increasingly demanding and affluent middle class (especially in emerging markets), the impact of technology, and the effects of regulation. As a consequence, pressures are beginning to affect the traditional roles of stores just as the requirements for particular formats of stores are being revisited.
The Oxford Institute of Retail Management, based at the University's Saïd Business School, is holding its annual Retail Futures Conference on this subject in Oxford on 12 December 2017. Why not join us?
This year's conference considers the implications of these changes for the physical landscape of retailing. We will address in particular how retailers' space requirements are likely to change; to what extent the role of physical stores needs to be reimagined by retailers; how this will affect business models, local economies, and communities; how these changing roles will vary by sector as well as by geography; and what is at risk for stakeholders in retail property markets, as well as for policymakers at national and local level.

The Magazine for Underwater Professionals
May/Jun 2015
UK-headquartered Harkand has secured a US$5 million (GB£3 million) contract in Mexico to perform saturation diving services in support of an offshore pipeline project for offshore construction company Swiber Offshore Mexico SA de CV.
The global subsea inspection, repair, maintenance and light construction company has recently finalised a joint venture with Arena Servicios de Mexico, a local Mexican company involved in infrastructure projects as their exclusive vehicle to deliver services in Mexico.
Harkand Arena will complete a wide-ranging scope of work, including the installation of risers and expansion spools to the Ayatsil Field located in the waters of Campeche Sound. This project will be performed utilising a portable saturation diving system to be provided by Harkand onboard the client's vessel. The project includes an option to utilise Harkand's DSV Swordfish.
All onshore support including the project management and engineering will be performed by Harkand Arena personnel from Harkand's new office in Ciudad del Carmen, Mexico.
Eduardo Borja, Arena's director, said: "We have worked diligently over the past ten years as owner's representative for large infrastructure projects. Our interest in expanding into offshore projects brought us to Harkand, a company with a clear direction of becoming the leading IRM and light construction contractor. Harkand has the assets and more importantly the people with the knowledge, experience and reputation of providing innovative and cost-effective solutions to the complex projects this industry brings to the table."
The managing director for Harkand North America and Africa, AJ Jain, said: "This is a significant contract win for us, not only as our first under the Harkand Arena name, but it also represents our clients' confidence in our growing diving division team and their combined experience."
UK-based Wish Software reports it has been awarded a digital video visualisation contract by Statoil, Norway.
The company said the project will implement its ground-breaking new VisualGIS Server software, making digital video and accompanying survey data available across the enterprise and the web.
"Users will be able to access their data on zero-client HTML5 compatible browser-based viewers on devices such as desktops, tablets and iPads," said the company. "Digital video data is synchronised geographically with web maps provided by ArcGIS Server. Multiple surveys can be displayed simultaneously to provide year-on-year comparison."
Fugro, the Netherlands, has been awarded a five-year contract with an estimated value of US$100 million (GB£66 million) by Total E&P Congo. The agreement is for ROV services and remote subsea tooling in the Moho Nord field, situated around 75 kilometres off the coast of Pointe Noire in the Republic of Congo.
Fugro will supply four 200hp FCV 3000 work-class ROV systems and blowout preventer (BOP) tooling which will be installed on board three mobile drilling units and one field support vessel.
Three ROV systems have been mobilised from Fugro's Singapore base and are now operating in Moho Nord. Two of them are on board ultra-deep water drill ships and will be working in water depths of around 1200 metres. The fourth system will be installed on a semi-submersible vessel, which is under construction and expected to join operations with its ROV later this year.
A central task is subsea BOP intervention and testing, using an ROV equipped with a BOP skid specifically designed for this project by Fugro. Primary responsibility for controlling the BOP lies with the rig, but the ROV-operated BOP skids are also used to operate the BOP in accordance with Total's requirements. When a subsea BOP is installed, under Total's test procedures various rams are operated and tested on a regular basis. The ROVs also routinely inject glycol into the BOP to prevent hydrate build-up.
"Moho Nord is the first major field in which rig BOP test closures have been carried out using Fugro's new BOP skid system," said Richard Mathieson, Fugro Subsea's ROV services project manager. "This uses a special high-flow pump on the ROV to drive further pumps located on the BOP skid, allowing the transfer of large volumes of water-based fluid from the skid reservoirs into the rig's BOP hydraulic rams when directed."
Other ROV tasks include setting up regular fluid injection, drilling re-entry, bullseye checks and routine video monitoring, inspection, cleaning and intervention tasks on and around the BOP, as well as alignment control during manifold installation. The ROV on board the field support vessel recently installed transponder arrays on the seafloor to position the drill ship at its drilling location.
Each operational drill ship carries three ROV personnel for 12-hour coverage, and this can be increased to six people and 24-hour coverage for certain operations such as BOP installation and recovery.
Fugro is expanding its existing Pointe Noire base to provide operational, maintenance and repair services and also training on FCV ROVs and tooling for expatriate and Congolese personnel.
UK-headquartered Ceona has been awarded a new deepwater contract with Houston, USA-based Bennu Oil & Gas in the Gulf of Mexico on its Mirage field.
The agreement will see Ceona deploy its newest vessel, the Ceona Amazon, to install a flexible flowline of approximately 2.4 miles (3.8 kilometres) and an umbilical of about 2.6 miles (4.2 kilometres) from Bennu's Mirage well location, which is located in Block 941 of the Mississippi Canyon Field. Each will be tied-back to Bennu's Titan production facility at a depth of approximately 4000 feet (1200 metres).
The contract is the second that Ceona has won with Bennu after previously being selected to install a 1.1-mile (1.7-kilometre) umbilical and two 15-mile (24-kilometre) electric quad cables at a depth of 3000 feet (914 metres) on the Clipper deepwater project in the spring of 2014.
Offshore work is scheduled to begin in the second half of 2015 and, as with the previous operation, the project management and engineering work will be coordinated from Ceona's Houston offices.
Janelle Pence, Ceona's vice president, Commercial Americas, said: "We have established a strong relationship with Bennu following our previous work together and this latest contract gives us the opportunity to build on this as well as our track record in the Gulf of Mexico. We are also pleased to be able to deploy the Amazon on this project because it provides another opportunity to demonstrate the vessel's deepwater capabilities."
The Ceona Amazon is a multi-functional vessel capable of operating in multiple pipelay (rigid/flexible pipe and umbilicals) and operational (heavy subsea construction) modes. At 655 feet (199 metres) long, the vessel is equipped for heavy lifting with two 400-tonne deepwater cranes, and has capacity to carry 9500 tonnes of pipe.
Unique Group, the United Arab Emirates-headquartered subsea and offshore solutions provider, has delivered two new dive systems and a diving vessel worth around GB£5 million to Aberdeen, UK-based services provider Vertech.
The Hydracraft 1500 daughter craft vessel, named the Vaila, is nearly 50 feet (15 metres) long and designed for air diving activity. The hull is designed to provide an enhanced stability, optimising operational efficiency.
Unique Group's UK managing director, Ray Hughes, handed the vessel over to Vertech's managing director, John Marsden, and Vertech's diving manager, Alan Melia, in Aberdeen at the beginning of May.
According to Unique, the Vaila is the first daughter craft which has been built for purpose, from concept through to design. Other vessels used for the same purposes have been conversions of existing craft. The daughter craft system is designed for conducting diving operations for underwater inspection in locations otherwise inaccessible by larger vessels.
The project was initiated when Vertech formed a new commercial diving entity. The company approached Unique for surface diving systems and so the concept development for the daughter craft began in May 2014.
Ray Hughes said: "Delivering the daughter craft to Vertech has been a magnificent achievement for Unique Group. We have worked closely with our client, ensuring the design and operations of the vessel are first class. It is essential that the craft and its associated equipment provide a safe and comfortable working environment for the divers and crew on board.
"Unique Group's strength is in our continued ability to provide turnkey solutions tailored to suit our clients' requirements. The supply of the daughter craft and dive systems demonstrates the versatility and diversity of our energy sector capabilities."
John Marsden said: "At Vertech it is really important that we provide our clients' with the very best safety performance, service and value. The dive systems we have purchased from Unique Group are a key part of this; the systems themselves are well proven with a good track record. They have been designed to meet our onerous specifications and incorporate all the latest recommendations from IMCA. This kit is state-of-the-art and the service we have received from Unique has exceeded our expectations."
The Vaila can hold a maximum of ten people. It has its own single launch and recovery system, Finland-based Cargotec's Macgregor G150 davit.
