Lots of Aztec "local color" and OK homecooked food. Breakfasts are pretty hearty and dependable.
Went in there on a busy Saturday and was impressed to see how quickly we were able to order our food. Food was great, server was friendly.
What a great place! After having what was supposed to be a great meal in Moab the night before and being extremely disappointed in the receptions was well as the food, this was a bright spot! Although we only had a burger and chicken sandwich,...More

The Jug Shop is one of those places that we love, but try to love quietly. Eric Cripe, the in-house cicerone, puts on amazing tastings that we give huge props to…but we don't want them to get crowded, now do we? Currently, they are almost always full, or at least very busy, but we only have to buy tickets ahead of time for super-special ones. So go ahead and go, Beer at Joe's readers, but don't tell your friends, and for goodness sakes don't Yelp it.
One of my favorites was "Eric's Choice". Possibly my favorite tasting yet. He started with "1809″ a Berliner Weisse style beer recreated by Professor Fritz Briem with Weihenstephan & Doemens Brewery. Apparently Berliner Weisse was dubbed "the champagne of the north" by Napoleon Bonaparte and/or his troops in 1809–thus the name. It's bottle-conditioned, unfiltered, and unpasteurized. The smell is fresh and yeasty, with plenty of carbonation. It tastes tart but not sour, fruity, like peaches and cream– the term "lactic acid" gets bandied about a lot in its online reviews. Delicious and drinkable. I actually came back for more at the end of the tasting.
Next up was Avec Les Bons Voeux from Brasserie Dupont. And with this blonde, top-fermented ale we jump up to 9.5% alcohol. Smell is almost non-existent, a bit of a light hay smell (maybe this is the "fine hop aromas"). It has a much denser mouthfeel than the crisp 1809 and hints of fruit and mushroom in the taste. Because it is re-fermented in the bottle, this could be a fine aging beer. In the tasting notes he hands out at the Jug Shop, Eric mentions both this and the first one as good beers to cellar. That's part of the fun in becoming a true beer geek, after all. I bet it would become a lot more interesting after a few years.
Next were two Ballast Point beers (Yellow Tale Pale Ale and Sculpin IPA) and then Pliney, now a classic. Next was Mikkeller's Chipotle Porter, a beer I found so heavy and spicy I couldn't drink it. Disclaimer: I don't do spicy, so this beer never had a chance with me. But Joe does, and even he wasn't crazy about it.
Here my notes get hazy: Weihenstephaner Korbinian, which I remember as being super tasty; and Alesmith's Wee Heavy, which I've had before and enjoyed. The tasting finished with Ballast Point's Victory at Sea, an imperial porter brewed with coffee and vanilla. According to their press release, "Our friends at Cafe Calabria created a special blend of hand selected coffees from around the world and roasted them fresh the day the coffee was brewed for addition to the beer. A 24 hour cold extraction process is employed to coax out only the finest flavors in the coffee, leaving behind many of the harsher, more bitter compounds. The pure vanilla extract added post fermentation is a perfect complement to this roasty goodness of this brew."
I have exactly one word written in the notes section under this beer: yum.
Once the tasting finished, we gathered the bottles we wanted to buy and brought them to the cash register (Jug Shop has Velvet Merkin in 6 packs! Yay!). While up there, we chatted Eric up about Tactical Nuclear Penguin from BrewDog. It turns out the Jug Shop just got a bunch of bottles in–Eric said it might have been their single most expensive beer purchase ever. We asked him what it tasted like. We asked to see the bottle. And once our beer was paid for he said, "Alright. Follow me."
He opened a bottle for us.
It tasted like scotch–smokey, malty, biting alcohol. We cut it with some water the way you would with scotch and it became slightly more drinkable. It would definitely appeal to scotch drinkers even more than beer drinkers. It is possible that I had to take a nap an hour or two later just to make it through the rest of the night (even though the rest of the night was just a cab ride home). Not a beer to party with, but a lot of fun. Thanks Eric!

Fire-fighting and water supply vehicles of
standard fire-fighting brigades are mainly designed for
use on roads and stable paths. The employment of such vehicles
for forest and wild fire fighting in heavy and difficult
terrain entails the following problems with high impact
on speed and effectiveness of the operation:
The JUMBO-TANK PHF 20 T is designed to cope with these
The heavy-duty fire-fighting vehicle PHF 20 T is a fully-
tracked vehicle specially designed for forest fire fighting
in hardly accessible and dangerous areas and for dangerous
fighting tasks like fires in crashed airplanes or chemical
plants. This vehicle is distinguished by an extreme large
water reservoir and a remote controlled fire extinguishing
monitor. The operation of this special-purpose vehicle is
largely independent of external supplies and support.
The carrier vehicle for the PHF 20 T is the chassis of
the demilitarized Leopard 1 main battle tank. The fully-tracked
vehicle is highly anoeuverable and mobile in cross-country
terrain and features a low ground pressure in spite of high
payloads. For driving on public roads the track has rubber
pads mounted.
The front end of the hull accomodates two stations fordriver
and fire extinguisher operator located side by side. The
construction of the hull is such as to provide good protection
for the crew against direct radiated heat from the fire
and mechanical forces (e. g. falling trees). The integrated
NBC protection system of the Leopard 1 protects the crew against
smoke and toxid gases so that it becomes possible to even
cross fires. In the center of the chassis is the pump compartment
with the fire extinguisher pump. The pump is powered through
a hydraulic intermediate gearbox to control the pump capacity on the move (roll and pump) directly by
the engine of the tank.
The fire extinguishing agent reservoir (3-chamber system)
with a capacity of appr 20.000litres is permanently mounted
above the chassis. This reservoir covers the chassis almost
completely. At the front, it is mounted on the existing
hull frame support structure for the turret and at the rear
end, it is mounted; on support pads welded onto the chassis. All
connections are designed as bolted joints so that the water
reservoir can be removed from the chassis formaintenance
operations. The fire-fighting vehicle PHF 20 T is designed
for both refilling with water from an outside source and
for self-priming.
The fire extinguishing monitor is mounted at the front
of the fire extinguishing agent reservoir above the operator
stations. It can be remote-controlled from the vehicle interior
for reason of crew protection. It is driven lectrically.
The vehicle is normally operated head-out. Only when reaching
the area of the fire or dangerous zones the hatches are
closed to protect the crew. Outward vision is ensured by
means of optical vision blocks.

I'm so excited, I had to share! I'm in the Winter 2012 issue of Artful Blogging! So cool!
As you may or may not know, Artful Blogging is one of the MANY amazing publications from Stampington & Company. Each one of their magazines is like a book, full of creative and artsy stuff. And they offer digital editions too!
Anyway, a few months ago I received an email from Jennifer Jackson Taylor, the editor of Artful Blogging, asking me if I would be interested in having my blog featured on their magazine.
"Let me think... YEAH! Of course!!!"
So I sent her some images, wrote an article, and (not so) patiently waited until November 1st. And here it is, and it's beautiful, and I'm so happy!

A Hickory man died from injuries he sustained after jumping out of a cab on Tuesday in order to avoid paying his fare, according to multiple media reports.
Police initially thought Michael Jason Curl was killed in a hit-and-run crash when they found him dead on a road in Winston-Salem on Tuesday, WFMY-News reported.
But by Wednesday, officials had determined that Curl jumped out of a cab after refusing to pay for his ride when he arrived to his destination, multiple news outlets reported.
Badara Gaye, the cab driver, reported the incident to the cab company, but didn't realize the extent of Curl's injuries, according to the Winston-Salem Journal. Gaye is not facing charges.
Curl's was taken to a local medical center for an autopsy.
Police believe the impact with the road killed Curl, Fox 8 reported.

HOUSTON - When molecular disaster strikes, causing structural damage to DNA, players in two important pathways talk to each other to help contain the wreckage, scientists at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center report in the August edition of Cell.
This connection between a signaling pathway crucial to DNA damage control and a pathway known as chromatin remodeling "opens an entirely new category of targets for potentially attacking cancer," says senior author Xuetong "Snow" Shen, Ph.D., an assistant professor in M. D. Anderson's Department of Carcinogenesis at the Science Park - Research Division in Smithville, Texas.
If DNA damage is like a fire that spreads when impaired cells divide and multiply, then the DNA checkpoint and repair system can be considered a first-response firebreak. Checkpoint genes temporarily halt a cell's division and assess its DNA. The "fire" is either doused by DNA repair or by programmed destruction of the cell.
The ATM/ATR kinases are known to regulate DNA repair and checkpoint pathways, Shen explains, by attaching phosphate groups to other proteins involved in damage control. When ATM and ATR are themselves damaged, they cause genome instability and fuel cancer growth.
"We found that one of the proteins phosphorylated was a unit of a chromatin remodeling complex we call INO80," Shen says. "We subsequently found that phosphoryllation of this subunit regulates checkpoint pathways, but not DNA repair pathways."
A cell's DNA resides in chromosomes found in the cell nucleus, but it's a bit more complex than just DNA itself, Shen explains. DNA is tightly intertwined with proteins known as histones and assembled in histone/DNA units called nucleosomes along the connecting length of a string of DNA.
"This structure is often referred to as beads on a string," Shen says, and is collectively known as chromatin.
"Chromatin creates barriers to DNA against anythi

Lierac Micellar Cleansing Water Face & Eyes review
Unfortunately, I must say that this solution is nowhere near Bioderma. To be specific, it doesn't work. I mean, it works all right as far as wiping my foundation off is concerned but my mascaras simply do not budge when treated with this cleansing water. Removing mascara before going to bed is a long and tedious process. I was quite surprised cause the consistency of this solution seemed thicker than that of Bioderma, I know this is a contradiction in terms, but it even seemed oily, which would normally guarantee better make-up removal properties.
This micellar solution is scented and I'm not a fan of this smell at all. It evaporates quickly but it's very noticeable in the moment of application.

Found some of my old motorcycle photos whilst unpacking after moving. My very first bike/moped. An NSU Quickly!
It didnt last long before rapidly being moved on for a far more satisfying Suzuki GP125. Sadly no photos exist of that but I remember it being a massive step up at the time. Heaps of fun.
Last edited by HackneyRF; 27-01-2018 at 15:35.
A couple more photos. The Suzuki GT185 was one of the worst bikes I ever owned. Horrible handling with even worse reliability issues. However the GT500 was probably one of my favourite ever bikes. Ultra reliable, sounded great, quick but with lovely smooth power through the rev range. A great bike that was sadly written off by a careless car driver and left me with both legs broken plus a broken hand.
My stuff; Toshiba SR-370/Mission 774 /Ortofon Quintet Black, Cambridge CXC CD transport/Musical Fidelity X DAC/Musical Fidelity X10v3 tube buffer, Musical Fidelity A3, Nakamichi CA-5E pre amp, Acoustic Solutions FM/DAB tuner, Mordaunt Short Signifer, Klotz MC5000/MS audio, NVA LS5
Ridden the GT185 and the GT500. I'd agree, the 185 was a bit grim and the 500 was a decent tool.
Had this GS750 whilst in California in the 80's. Quite a pretty bike but a bit dull performance wise. Maybe in part due to the strict Californian emissions controls? It always felt underpowered for a 750 inline four.
That's a GSX-750. I had the ES version with the fairing and yes it wasn't exactly brisk.
Felt about the same as the foregoing GS-750. You can tell the difference by the cam end covers. Round on GS, rectangular on GSX.
A mate had a GS-750 and thought it was the 'beez kneez'. I let him have a ride on my tweaked Kwak H1. He was speechless when he came back, apart from saying "Fucking Hell!"
A nice Kawasaki AR125 bought for a nickle and not much more. Used for commuting and enjoying some two stroke smell!
My pride and joy, Suzuki RGV250 -92. Unfortunately it consumed pistons, rings and cylinder nicasil-treatments like crazy after a bad day when the exhaust valves fell into the forward cylinder.. But between the repairs it was a total blast to ride!
And finally my molto belissima Ducati 750SS. I loved it to pieces, never failed me sounded better than my stero and rode like a dream. Miss it dearly!

My current blogging and freelance journalism work:
I am the Editor-in-Chief at GameLuster, a small video game website. We have news, features, and reviews. Check us out (and check out my stories). I am also a writer at TechRaptor, and here is my writer's page there.
I write entries on missions from a computer game series called Thief at the Thief Diaries. Even if you're not interested in games, you may enjoy a read of it.
My games blog is at The Stammering Stickman. In 2018, my posting here has gone dormant due to my increased work elsewhere. I also prioritize Thief Diaries above this when I make time for personal blogs. However, I will continue to update it with personal gaming-related posts as I can.
My big school projects:
In all the classes I took in school I completed many projects. The two below are the biggest – those that I completed for each degree, my Master's and my Bachelor's. Both have to do with my passion – games – but they may be read and enjoyed by anyone.
Note that for my Master's I majored in Emerging Media and Communication at the University of Texas at Dallas and for my Bachelor's I majored in History at the University of Dallas.
My graduate school Advanced Project:
For my Master's I completed a blog project in which I analyzed official and fan-made missions for the first three Thief games. If you are unfamiliar with games, know that these titles are some of the best at using the medium's interactivity to convey narrative. This is one of the major points of my project linked to below:

This ad for Morgan Stanley ran in Travel + Leisure. There's a huge headline that says WORLD WISE, a beautiful ocean scene, and copy that no one's going to stop to read. It's some kind of travel ad, right?
Here are the first two sentences of the copy:
The U.S. received a "D" grade for its infrastructure conditions. Clearly, there's an opportunity for improvement.
Oh. It's an ad that's somehow about the US infrastructure. But it looks like a travel ad.
The next sentence:
But did you know there may be an opportunity for you?
It's not a travel ad. It's not about the infrastructure. It's about an opportunity for me. What kind of opportunity?
Your Morgan Stanley Financial Advisor can help determine how your portfolio might take part in the $1.6 trillion needed to improve conditions. To find the smart investments today, you need to be world wise.
Huh? It's about investments? Talk about a disconnect. How is this ad going to sell investments?
Sure is a pretty picture, though.

After being suitably embarassed after arriving at Shoreham having forgotten the key for the trusty steed (thank you Fire Service for the HUGE effort you went to in order to enable me to go flying), we joined the queue of 8 aircraft waiting to depart and make the most of the fine weather. We climbed out behind 4 others all heading west and climbed to 4000', switching to a very busy Goodwood, before turning inland from their overhead.
Not wishing to tempt fate with scattered cloud we settled back down to 3000' and marvelled how quiet Solent were, compared to what we had come from. Time to admire the view, bathed in the autumnal sunshine, giving everything a soft comforting glow.
Passing overhead Popham we commented on how busy it always seems to be and laughed at all the cars sat on the motorway below. This has to be the way to travel !! Already Newbury was coming up off to our right and I realised that, apart from a trip with DW, I had not actually piloted myself north of the M3 until today. Sam spotted Greenham Common and Newbury racecourse, whilst acting as a very handy back up for spying other aircraft.
Kingsclere mast stood out in the clear conditions, as Hungerford loomed on the nose and the Honda factory at Swindon reflected the sunlight from the middle distance. Navigation is so much easier on days like this and Sam is getting rather good at navigation too. She can happily tell me where we are 99% of the time, picking out even the smallest details. It was she who spotted a farm strip, without prompting from me, of a fellow forumite. Purely from the way he had described it to me in an e-mail.
Lyneham gave us a crossing on a direct track to Kemble just to make my life even easier. We floated serenely on, the M4 busy below us and a pretty yellow biplane passed beneath us out enjoying the weather. All too quickly the lakes to the east of Kemble were beneath us and we were joining left base for 26, avoiding the village where a Remembrance Day gathering was under way. The huge runway came up to meet us and I began to wish I had landed a little longer as we taxied past the deserted MYT DC10's on our left. A Tiger Moth (?) took off on the parallel grass runway as we taxied, I really must experience the magic of open cockpit flying one day. We had time to discuss the disadvantages of getting the approach speed right by the time we taxied off the runway and parked up outside the now infamous AV8.
Landing fee paid (ouch!!!!), Sam was very quick to notice how different AV8 was compared to your average airfield eating establishment. Worthy of note I feel. Unfortunately the service remains leisurely, though the coffee was the best I have tasted. Sam was astounded by the variety of 'craft there were. She was also astounded that people actually flew such tiny planes (she regards the 152 as rather cosy!) and disregarded my comment about acquiring anything so small. Wait till she meets tKF someday Guess the Eurocub idea will take some working on . As we were finishing our coffee, Mike Cross and Irv Lee ambled past on their way home, another forumite met in the flesh.
Must attend one of your seminars one day Irv. Sam does love your G-BTCH reg Mike, can she have it transferred??
All too soon it was time to go, the penalty of winter flying being the lack of daylight hours available to sit and observe. Seeing the antics of one of UH's Extra's, Sam is now convinced I am in need of help. Climbing to 2500' we switched to Lyneham again, only to be given clearance to cross their zone at not above 1000' on their QFE so a swift descent was undertaken in order to comply. Having passed junction 15 of the M4 we asked for a climb to 2500 and at the end of their confirmation I could have sworn someone snuck in a "Hello Andy" to the end of the transmission. Sam noticed it too, but we decided our ears were playing tricks............
Levelling out after a further ascent to 3000' I noticed a plane below quite clearly enjoying the late afternoon, swooping and turning through the sky. As we got nearer I had a feeling I recognised the plane. I love Luscombes and this was definitely one, a distinctive maroon fuselage with silver wings, the pilot obviously enjoying his antics. Keeping a very close eye on it I watched it descending and realised it was preparing to land. Sam twigged before I did..... our ears hadn't been playing tricks then!!
We descended to a couple of thousand feet and watched the pilot land. As he backtracked my Cessna waggled her wings in a friendly greeting type of way. Before we knew it the lovely red and silver plane was speeding down the strip again and climbing up to meet us. The Luscombe still has my vote as one of the prettiest small aircraft, especially viewed from alongside in the soft afternoon sun, with lush countryside in the background, (at a safe distance by 2 pilots that have some trust in each other not to do something stupid). G-**** waggled her wings at us in a "come down and have a cuppa" type way, but we regretfully had to refuse the offer for fear of running out of daylight, knowing how busy Shoreham was likely to be as everyone raced home before dark.
Another time, another excuse to go fly.
As she peeled off to return home, we continued on our way, revelling in the beauty of the countryside below us and the odd balloon launching into the tranquil evening, before tuning back into Goodwood and the chaos of "12 others known in the local area".
Sam was back in serious plane spotting mode and as we wafted back over Goodwood Racecourse and onto Arundel I prepared for a chaotic return to Shoreham. Last week I had been held at Littlehampton for several long orbits whilst everyone queued to land so I was very surprised to be given a left base join for 02, initially not below 1600'.
Must have been a lucky day to end a marvellous week as others calling after were all given overhead joins whilst we came in on a shortened base and final underneath a fairly full overhead, to kiss the tarmac and end what has been my best flying week to date.
3 night flights in an Aztec as self loading freight, 3 new airfields (plus 2 with Timothy) and 6.5 hours P1 in a 'plane I am coming to love and enjoy, despite it's simplicity. Sometimes it is not about speed, but about just enjoying one's passage through the air as much as the destination. The New Year resolution I made at the start of 2004 is proving to be the best one I have ever made. What was it?
"To complete my PPL".
I am so glad I saw it through. Now to start thinking about next year's......

By Lise Alves, Senior Contributing Reporter
SÃO PAULO, BRAZIL – Brazilian construction conglomerate, Odebrecht, and one of its subsidiaries, Braskem, have agreed to pay at least US$3.5 billion in penalties due to bribes paid to government officials in Brazil, the United States and Switzerland, in what is already being considered the largest-ever global foreign bribery agreement, according to the U.S. Justice Department.
"As part of the agreement, [Odebrecht] has agreed to disclose unlawful actions discovered in internal investigations, practiced in Brazil and abroad in various spheres of power, and assumes its responsibility for violating applicable Brazilian and Swiss laws, and more specifically, the U.S.'s anti-corruption law (Foreign Corrupt Practices Act – FCPA)," said the statement released by Odebrecht on Wednesday.
For the U.S. Justice Department, the agreement is the result of a multinational effort to identify, investigate and prosecute one of the most widespread sophisticated corruption schemes ever seen.
"Odebrecht and Braskem used hidden but fully functioning Odebrecht business unit – a 'Department of Bribery' so to speak – that systematically paid hundreds of millions of dollars to corrupt government officials in countries on three continents," said US Deputy Assistant Attorney General Sung-Hee Suh.
According to local media, Odebrecht executives cooperating with Brazilian federal prosecutors have admitted paying billions in bribes to government officials in 12 different countries, including Argentina, Mexico, Panama and Venezuela for government contracts.
Braskem, Odebrecht's subsidiary in the petrochemical sector, is said to have authorized the payment of bribes to politicians and political parties in Brazil, as well as to Petrobras employees. In exchange, Braskem obtained preferential tariffs from Petrobras for the purchase of raw materials.
The restitution fines to be paid by the conglomerate to the United States are due to the fact that some of the money illicitly paid out to officials went directly to U.S. banks for projects in the United States. With regards to Switzerland, the fine will be paid because much of the money from the corruption scheme was deposited in banks in the European country.

More Description
From the winner of the Orange Award for New Writers, an epic novel of childbirth--past, present, and future
The year is 1865. In Vienna, Dr. Ignasz Semmelweiss has been hounded into an asylum by his medical peers, ridiculed for his claim that doctors' unwashed hands are the root cause of childbed fever. In present-day London, Bridget Hughes juggles her young son, husband, and mother as she plans her home birth, unprepared for the trial she is about to endure. Somewhere in 2135, in a world where humans are birthed and raised in breeding farms, Prisoner 730004 is on trial for concealing a pregnancy.
Through three stories spanning centuries, acclaimed novelist Joanna Kavenna explores the most basic plight of women, from the slaughterhouse of primitive medicine to a futurisic vision of technological oppression. Poised at the midpoint is Bridget, whose fervent belief in the wisdom of nature is tested in one of the most gripping accounts of labor to appear in fiction.
Original, powerful, and played out against a vast canvas, "The Birth of Love" is at once a novel about the creation of human life, science and faith, madness and compromise, and the epic journey of motherhood.

Comments Concerning IRS Notice 2001–10 April 2001
I. Characterizing Equity SDAs
The legal form of ownership is significant when determining which party—the employer or the employee—is the beneficial owner of property for purposes of Section 83 and Section 7872. Rev. Rul. 64-328 provides that the income tax treatment to the employee is the same under an SDA whether it is structured using the collateral assignment method or endorsement method, at least insofar as treatment of the annual value of the insurance coverage received by the employee. Extending the position of Rev. Rul. 64-328 regarding uniformity of tax treatment to other tax issues, such as the taxation of the inside policy build-up under an Equity SDA or the appropriate tax treatment to the employer, is much less compelling
Our preliminary analysis suggests that it is difficult to view collateral assignment Equity SDAs as providing the employer with beneficial ownership of the policy and its benefits in most situations. The employer merely has a right to receive repayment of its funds, which is not a property right under the policy. The collateral assignment simply secures repayment of the employer's contract right. The split-dollar documentation and state law both provide that the employee is the owner of a policy, albeit subject to a security interest in favor of the employer.
On the other hand, it appears that Equity SDAs structured using the endorsement method should result in the employer being treated as the policy owner. The employer may use the endorsement method to gain greater control over the policy and its benefits. 4 The employer's creditors may assert rights to all policy cash value notwithstanding the endorsement to the employee. The endorsement may be viewed under state law in some circumstances as only providing the employee rights as a creditor against the employer. We note that treating the employer as beneficial owner of policies subject to an endorsement method Equity SDA would be consistent with previous private letter rulings issued by the IRS. See PLRs 8310027 and 7916029 (finding the rollout of an SDA structured using the endorsement method resulted in taxation under Section 83).
The payment of premiums by the employer does not mean, ipso facto, that the employer is the beneficial owner of the policy. The legal ownership structure of Equity SDAs has significant non-tax consequences. Rights to policy assignment, designation of beneficiaries and investment of cash value (for variable contracts) are affected by legal ownership of the policy. The employer is not entitled to a transfer of the policy and all the incidents of policy ownership in satisfaction of its premium recovery rights; rather, the employer is entitled only to the repayment of its cash expenditure. We also note that payment of premiums is not probative of who has "incidents of ownership" in a life insurance context for purposes of the estate tax.
We suggest that consideration be given to a rule providing that beneficial ownership be presumed to follow legal ownership. That is, if the collateral assignment method is used to structure the Equity SDA, the employee would be presumptively considered the beneficial owner of the policy absent unusual circumstances, resulting in tax treatment under Section 7872. The endorsement method would result in the employer being presumed to be the beneficial owner of the policy, resulting in tax treatment under Section 83. This approach reflects practical realities, facilitates certainty in structuring transactions, and allows the IRS discretion to invoke substance over form principles for abusive situations when the parties do not act consistently with the legal ownership selected for the transaction.
4 Other non-tax reasons may exist as well for using the endorsement method. The parties may desire to avoid any appearance of there being a loan transaction between the employer and employee. This may be pertinent in states that prohibit corporations from making loans to officers and shareholders, or where the employer has a lending agreement in place that restricts loans from the corporation to an employee. The endorsement method facilitates use of the policy funds to finance on an informal basis a non-qualified retirement program.

2018 festival
The lines between work and life are blurred…and we like it that way.
WORK takes up a huge portion of our days spent here on Earth. Our professional life contributes greatly to our self worth, our net worth, and all that's in between. Nowadays, lines between work and life are blurred. An increasing number of people have greater freedom to be able to work from anywhere, and whenever they want. Such freedom provides great opportunities, but it also creates new challenges. At Freedom X Fest, we explore this new way of living - one where the line between work and life is fading.
During the festival, you will gain insight and inspiration from experienced creatives, startup founders, innovators and entrepreneurs who have encountered obstacles and overcome them, all with a healthy work/life balance on the top of their priority list. You'll learn about innovative skills and tools to bring you to the summit of your professional journey, wherever and however YOU want to live.
Best of all, this is a FESTIVAL, so expect an amazing experience in the gorgeous Spanish mountainside, where the activities and possibilities are endless!
Attend the conference if you'd like to:
- Grow your businesses successfully
- Launch a new product or idea
- Get your creative juices flowing whist surrounded by other creative thinkers and doers
- Learn new skills or best practices to improve your business/project
- Connect with a new international community
- Connect/bond with your current team in a unique environment
- Embark on a new lifestlye of working remotely
- Recharge. Reconnect. RELAX.

Attendees can chose to stay for one week or one day. The choice is yours. Pick as many days as you please during the week-long festival, 14 - 19 of August. You have the choice of staying in a luxury cottage (in a single or shared room), a glamping tipi tent, or a traditional camping tent. You can even bring your own tent if you prefer to save some dough!

This partnership between The Collective Europe and Freedom X Fest creates a strong community that is quite diverse, coming from all over the world, boasting a vast range of skill sets, passions, and expertise - all ready for you to tap into.

There will be an opportunity to enjoy a tech detox during this retreat, if you choose. While tech-free, you will be able to form new and exciting relationships and completely immerse yourself in your new community.

Transportation Solutions
Now that you've found the perfect field trip to match your curriculum needs, how do you get your students there safely and in a cost effective manner? At the 2007 Field Trip Fair we introduced the Transportation Station – a one stop shop approach to answering your questions about meeting your transportation needs on field trips.
As always, email us if you have other suggestions for this page.
Bus Bursaries
BC Field Trips recognizes that sometimes travel by charter bus is the most efficient way to travel to a field trip. Since the 2007 Field Trip Fair we have given away 'bus bursaries' to attendees to the Fair. In 2010 we started to give away more transportation bursaries to recipients of our newsletter, On the Road.
TransLink is responsible for transit services, including SkyTrain, buses, SeaBus, and community shuttles, as well as cycling infrastructure.

Daytrippers – financial support to take learning on the road
In September 2007, BC Field Trips was pleased to introduce Daytrippers Children's Charity from Ontario to BC teachers. Daytrippers exists to provide funding to help teachers overcome financial barriers to accessing field trips. A short application form is available online and is reviewed by a trip review committee at the charity. To date over 20 BC teachers have benefitted from support from Daytrippers!
Booster seat legislation - making it work for field trips
As you may be aware, new child passenger restraint legislation came into effect on July 1, 2008 in British Columbia. This legislation now aligns with best practices for child passenger safety. It does have implications for volunteer drivers - teachers and parents - driving students under 9 years of age on field trips. BC Field Trips has worked with the BCAA Traffic Safety Foundation to create a plain language document to explain these changes and simple, low cost solutions for accessing booster seats. Print a copy and post it on your field trip board at school! More detailed information for administrators is being prepared by the Risk Management Branch of the Ministry of Finance. BC Field Trips also gave away 'six packs' of booster seats to four lucky teachers at the 2008 Field Trip Fair.

Enjoy a complimentary La Crescenta Real Estate Market Update for July 2017
This Month in Real Estate:
July saw a slightly higher inventory of homes and a decrease in home's sale price in the La Crescenta real estate market. The market had a total of 25 units sold at a median price of $730,000. That compared to the sales price one year ago showed a significant decrease in price at -11.3%. This prices went down -14.4% in median price from the previous month. The average sale price landed at exactly 102% of list price. Compared to last month, this shows that home values saw an overall decrease.
The average days to sell time on the market increased to an average of 47 days. The most important indicator for determining which type of market we are in currently is the average time it takes for the entire inventory supply of homes to sell. Anything below 4 months indicates a seller's market, between 4-6 months is a balanced market, and over 6 months is a buyer's market. Currently, we are still in a strong seller's market. However, with rates going up we may see a shift to a more stable and balanced real estate market in the coming months.
Other City's Average Median Home Values:
- In Los Angeles: $790,000
- In Mount Washington: $595,000
- In Eagle Rock: $803,000
- In Glendale: $840,000
- In Burbank: $741,000
- In Pasadena: $824,000

Most executive suite office business center operators are frequently challenged with the objection that they are "too expensive". Many inexperienced real estate shoppers believe that comparing the square foot cost of conventional space to the square foot cost of executive suite Business Centre in Chennai is an "apples to apples" comparison, and that the office space and amenities that a business center has to offer are more costly than a conventional office space alternative. This is a common office space myth and if the time and cost of services is clearly assessed, it is not unusual for the executive suite business center to be a significantly more cost effective alternative than conventional space, with added benefits.
Helper Team
Office business centers provide professional answering and reception services to handle callers and visitors. The cost to staff a person 40 hours a week for this purpose, plus benefits, workspace and equipment required typically is much more than the cost of the office in a business center. Additionally, if you consider the administrative time, training and human resource liabilities and elements involved to staff and maintain, the value is significant. Office business centers are in the business of ensuring that they are providing quality, consistent support, so the service is typically superior to that which can be achieved with a small staffed office. Also, vacations and sick and personal time are covered without issue.
Space required
Because executive suite office space involves a shared environment, space is not required for dedicated reception areas, copy room, telecommunications systems, kitchens/cafes and conference rooms; space that is not usually used all of the time, but is required to be available when needed, so by sharing it reduces the amount of office space needed. There will also be capital requirements that need to be considered for these areas; reception desks, lobby furniture, copiers, conference tables and chairs, audio visual equipment, refrigerators, dishwashers, etc.
Startup Initiative
Compare the startup capital required to open an office with conventional space. Along with furnishings and equipment required for the additional space needed that is mentioned above, there are also office requirements that include the furnishings, copiers, fax and telecommunications equipment. There will also typically be deposits and installation costs to initiate services. There will usually also be a large security deposit required for the Commercial Property for Rent in Chennai.
General and Administrative Operating Expenses
After taking into account the upfront costs associated with opening an office, the monthly recurring expenses should be assessed. There will be expenses for telecommunications services, office payroll and benefits, kitchen/café supplies, office supplies, building operating expenses and repairs and maintenance; expenses that can easily run several thousand dollars a month.
Resources and Time management
It takes a considerable amount of time to research, negotiate, hire and administrate the functions required to start an office and also requires ongoing resources to manage it. It will likely also take longer if the client has not done it before; knowing where to start and what to purchase, especially in the technology arena, can be especially overwhelming and mistakes for wrong decisions or overpaying for major items can be costly. Office business center providers are experts in these areas and include it in the service they provide. These services are typically invoiced on one invoice, once a month which also reduces processing time for the services rendered.
Complete Liability
The liability difference between entering and being on the hook for a conventional lease agreement, which is typically 5-10 years, and that of an executive suite business center agreement with flexible, scalable terms should be taken into consideration in comparing the actual cost difference. Many businesses get into trouble by over paying for too much space and end up in bankruptcy courts for relief and protection from their lease obligations. This result may have been avoided if there was not a long term lease obligation.
Time Management
Office Business Centers handle the details of operating the workplace so their clients can focus valuable time on their core business. Most experts can make more money by doing what they know and do best. The business center option allows this.
If all of these factors taken into comparing the cost difference, it is not unusual for the business center option to be somewhere between 30-40% less than conventional Office Space in Hyderabad when comparing actual expenses and overall exposure. Many times a business can enjoy a more upscale workplace environment than they can through conventional office space options, which make the Office Business Center an attractive alternative to traditional office space.

'RHONY' Recap: LuAnn & Tom Reunite With His Regency Lover At Ramona's Party
So awkward! LuAnn was forced to come face-to-face with another one of Tom's ex-lovers on the June 21 episode of 'The Real Housewives of New York City,' when Ramona invited the both of them to her party.
What was Ramona thinking? She had a rather surprising guest list for her newly-renovated apartment party — during the June 21 episode of The Real Housewives of New York City — and LuAnn was left in an awkward situation because of it. Not only did Ramona invite Harry (you know, the guy that almost every NYC housewife has slept with), but she also invited LuAnn and Tom, along with his former Regency lover, Missy. Fortunately, nothing was said except a few hellos, but Harry was trying to get the dirt out of Missy, while they sat on the couch together. Sonja called Missy's invite a calculated move on Ramona's part, but Ramona insisted it was a complete accident. Perhaps this is why Bethenny wants nothing to do with Ramona…
Speaking of Bethenny — she was invited to Ramona's party but declined to come. They're still feuding, yet Ramona thought sending an invite was a sign of having no ill will. Carole, on the other hand, told Ramona to stop inviting Bethenny to public events and just talk to her one-on-one. Let's hope she takes her advice!
In other RHONY news, Sonja's love triangle got even more complicated as things heated up with "Frenchie," so she had to put the brakes on her romance with Rocco. And Tinsley went apartment hunting with her mom. She saw two different apartments — one in the West Village and one uptown. They both cost the same — $9,000/month — but one had more space than the other. Even so, Tinsley couldn't decide on a place. Instead, she broke down in tears over the entire situation. (Dramatic much?)
Carole and Dorinda also traveled to Washington, D.C. for the Women's March.
HollywoodLifers, what did YOU think of this week's new episode of The Real Housewives of New York City? Tell us below!
