Thermographic or Infrared imaging is used during the inspection to help identify areas of heat loss or gain, water infiltration through foundations, roof and wall leaks, plumbing leaks, and electrical overheating. A thermographic image is an image showing the different temperatures of the surface it is pointed at. This can be used to identify cold areas in exterior walls and ceilings. Missing insulation, poor weatherstripping, thermal breaks, overheating wires and other problems become apparent when viewed with a thermographic camera. Heating ducts, studs, headers, joists and rafters can often be located with amazing accuracy inside walls.
Of course, thermographic imaging has its limitations as well. In order for heat loss to show up, the temperature outside must be considerably different from the interior temperature. For this reason, it is best to look for cold spots in the building in the winter. Water infiltration through a foundation will not show up in the dead of winter because there is no free water at the exterior of the building. Plumbing leaks that are hidden behind drywall can be detected if the wall is wet at the time of the inspection. An electrical wire or a breaker will show as hot only if it is carrying enough current at the time of observation. Furniture will block the view of walls and prohibit observation of many surfaces.
The images generated by the thermographic camera will be included in the report. If a problem area is noted, the thermographic image will be accompanied by a digital photo to provide context and to make it easy to locate the area of concern. A thermographic image can also be embedded inside a digital photo as well to help the client track down the problem when the time comes to make repairs.
This thermographic image shows nailing patterns in the underlay beneath the vinyl flooring. In order to get the nails to show up we raised the temperature of the basement a few degrees relative to the main level.
Wall and roof framing as seen via thermographic imaging. If you get up a little closer your can see every screw in the drywall as well.
Warm breakers under load can be seen in the panel. In this case these were Ark fault breakers.
Heat ducts are easily located in floors and walls.
This is a photo of a bare concrete wall in a basement. When this photo was taken it was -20 degrees outside. The number in the upper left corner is the temperature of the inside surface.
This is a photo of an attic hatch. Cold air can be seen on the left side of the hatch. Of more interest is the small cold spot beside the hatch. It turned out to be caused by a small amount of snow that had been blown in through a turbine roof vent. The small amount of dnow had melted and then cooled the ceilng surface. The bright spot at the lower left is heat passing through the chimney chase and into the room.
Heat can be seen leaking out from the ceiling of an attached garage.
No insulation in the bottom half of the basement wall.
The sun is warming the east wall of a poorly insulated old house.
We ran the water in the house to cool the concrete floor through which it flowed. The dark line is the water supply entering under the house and leading to the isolation valve in the furnace room.
This is an old breaker overheating. Even the attached wire is getting hot.
This hot spot in hte attic is missing insulation. The reason it is reading hot instead of cold is it was taken on a very warm spring day and the attic was getting hot.
Warm smoke detector. This is common with hard wired detectors.

Victim of drugs dupe says he felt 'banished by locals' in Limerick village
Patrick Scanlon was sentenced to 11 years's imprisonment after he was convicted of importing cannabis worth €80,000
AN INNOCENT grandfather who was duped by a restaurateur into receiving €80,000 worth of cannabis at his home in 2013 has spoken of the devastation it has caused his family and how he felt "banished" from the community.
Stephen Quinn, from Churchview, Pallaskenry, spoke this week at a hearing in which Patrick Scanlon, aged 57, originally from Loughill West, was seeking to have the remainder of his 11-year prison term suspended.
"I don't think anyone can understand the devastation he has put us through," Mr Quinn told Judge James O'Donoghue this Monday.
Following an eight-day trial in May 2014, Scanlon was convicted of importing the drugs to Mr Quinn's family home in 2013.
Scanlon was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment but this was later reduced to 11 years by the Court of Appeal which directed that a review take place half way through the sentence.
At a hearing in Limerick Circuit Court in June last, Judge O'Donoghue noted that the Probation Service had concerns that Scanlon would re-offend.
Mr Quinn delivered his victim impact statement from the stand, just a few feet from Scanlon, who wore a navy corduroy jacket, a blue tie and white shirt.
In 2013, Patrick Scanlon convinced Mr Quinn that a package containing "bits and bobs" from eBay was being sent to his Pallaskenry address for a failed restaurant venture in Askeaton.
During his trial, the court was told 4kg of cannabis was dropped at Malaga Airport on August 6 and arrived at Shannon Airport the following morning, having passed through DHL depots in Spain, Belgium and England.
The drugs were intercepted by Customs officers and were delivered to Mr Quinn's home by a drugs unit detective posing as a DHL courier.
In an interview with the Limerick Leader after the hearing, Mr Quinn said that after his home was raided that night, he was arrested and questioned at Henry Street garda station. He was released without charge.
Lily Buckley BL, prosecuting, said to Mr Quinn this week: "The finger of suspicion continued to be pointed at you."
He told the judge that there has been a "stigma" attached to him with a number of locals making "snide remarks" at him over the incident.
"Someone in the community said: 'Was that package really for you?' This is only about three or four weeks ago," he told the Leader.
He told the judge that he "cannot trust" Scanlon, adding: "We have been left to pick up the pieces without any help from anyone."
He told the Leader: "People who once called for a cup of tea, no longer called. It was like we were banished. No one would go near us."
He said that the experience "mentally and physically, it nearly killed me".
"We want our closure. Yet, I would still be gutted if he walked away. Mentally and physically, I find it impossible to sleep. It's all because of this."
At a hearing on Monday morning, Det Gda David Baynham, of Henry Street garda station, said there was "concern" expressed over Scanlon's behaviour at Loughan House in Cavan when he was ordered to desist from "building a wall and cutting a fence" by the governor.
Andrew Sexton SC, defending, said his client was building a "meditation garden".
Det Gda Baynham said that was "new information" to him. At the hearing in June, Daniel Scanlon—Patrick's brother—said he could live at the family home if released and he told the court a hotel in North Kerry was willing to offer his brother a job as a barman and waiter.
However, it emerged in court this week, Daniel Scanlon — a farmer — has since appeared before the court charged with a criminal offence.
When Daniel Scanlon took the stand, he was asked what Patrick Scanlon's position would be if he were no longer at the house "for a period of time".
Mr Scanlon said his brother would remain in the house and he could work on the farm if he was not working at the hotel.
Det Gda Baynham told the court that Daniel Scanlon lost a IR£30,000 surety after Patrick Scanlon breached terms of bail for a previous offence.
The garda told the court that he would "be at a loss again". However, Mr Scanlon said: "He is my brother, and I am hopeful he deserves another chance." He said that he is hopeful that his brother seeks help following his prison sentence.
Judge O'Donoghue said he will have to consider Mr Quinn's victim impact statement, and called for a governor's report and an updated probation report.

Google has made three updates to its Transparency Report. The company said it will expand the National Security Letters (NSL) section of its report, releasing new data on requests from governments to remove content from services like YouTube and Blogger. The changes are also intended to make it easier for people to share select data and charts from the Transparency Report.
The updates include national security letters, government reports for content removal, and making the Transparency Report easier to use.
Last year, Google began publishing NSLs received where either through litigation or legislation. Previously they were under non-disclosure, but now Google is free to publish these letters in its Transparency Report. Google's new subsection to the NSL page of the Transparency Report is where the company will publish these letters and plans to add new ones regularly.
The FBI lifted the gag order on June 30, 2017. The earliest NSL published come from 2009 that points to access to several Gmail accounts. The most recent is dated September 25, 2017, and concerns a 2015 focusing on a Google voice account.
A new "deep linking" feature aims to make it easier to bookmark and share specific charts in the Transparency Report, according to Google.
It will allow those on the site to sort data by country, time period, and other categories. It now generates a distinct web address at the top of the user's browser window, allowing them to create a link that will show, for example, just government removals of data in France, by Google product.

KIEV, February 13. /TASS/. A Ukrainian court has handed down a guilty verdict against former Russian servicemen Alexander Baranov and Maxim Odintsov, who the Ukrainian authorities accused of desertion and high treason, attorney Valentin Rybin who represents the two men told TASS.
The Ukrainian security service, the SBU, abducted Baranov and Odintsov in Crimea in November 2016.
"The Kiev court sentenced Odintsov to 14 years in prison and Baranov, to 13 years," Rybin said. "They are being kept in a detention center at present and I am drawing up appeals."
On November 21, 2016, the Russian Defense Ministry said that the SBU had abducted Corporal Maksim Odintsov and First Sergeant Alexander Baranov, both of them servicemen in the Russian Black Sea Fleet. The Ukrainian spy agency had snatched them from Crimea to the Nikolayev region in southern Ukraine.
According to the report, the SBU duped the two men into entering the territory of Ukraine using front men, allegedly "to hand to them the authenticated documents confirming their graduation from a Ukrainian university."
Right after crossing the border the two men were detained and charged with high treason.

There are scores of motivational quotes which have inspired both great and common people as well. They have been said through experience, by reading from books and through word of mouth. Nevertheless, motivational quotes are highly inspiring when given at the right time. Success does not come overnight and it needs a lot of hard work, over coming hurdles to climb up the ladder. It only needs 100 percent tireless effort. "Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you will land among the stars" said Les Brown. It is a good idea to have motivational quotes in the room and see them as soon as we get up in the morning. These few words have the power to cast great spell on us for the whole day. They can also be sent to friends or relatives during times of distress. Here is a collection of motivational quotes that are thought provoking.

Title Loans Roseville, California
You are doing the right thing by trying to find out what title loans in Roseville, Calif., is all about and not just diving into it blindly. Here, at Loan Cheetah, transparency is valued, which is one reason why we want you to understand what a title loan is before you get one.
A title loan is simply a loan that uses the title of a vehicle as collateral to quality for the loan. There are some qualifications that an applicant must meet and should know about, like the fact that the cars accepted need to be lien-free vehicles. You must possess the pink slip.
It should be noted that loans are not the same across the board. Just because one person qualifies for a certain amount does not mean the next applicant will get the same. Much of it deals with the kind of vehicle you have and its condition.
Why You Should Consider Title Loans Roseville
What makes title loans in Roseville, Calif., the right choice really comes down to the benefits. Of course, one of the main reasons that a person might be interested in these types of loans is because credit does not really matter. All you need when you get title loans in Sacramento or title loans in California is your car.
Another aspect that might be enticing is that you get your cash within a week, though it may be possible to get it in as little as 24 hours. Keep in mind that here, at Loan Cheetah, we can usually give our clients their cash within 24 hours of getting approved on average.
There are other benefits that you can expect from us like the following:
- There is no application fee or processing fee when you work with us.
- Expect no hidden fees when applying for a title loan.
- Do not worry about an early pre-payment penalty should you choose to pay the loan early.
- You will usually get cheaper interest rates when compared to payday loans.
- Of course, you can still use your vehicle.
Remember that Loan Cheetah does give you the opportunity to refinance your title loan if you are having trouble paying the amount initially agreed on. All you have to do is give us a call, and we can re-visit the loan to change the payments to something that you can deal with. Keep in mind that our repayment terms are quite flexible. You can pay over a few weeks or even years if this will help.
What is Needed to Get a Title Loan?
Surely, many might be wondering how they can get a loan with us. There are a few things that you are going to need like the following:
- At least 18 years old
- A few reputable references
- A legal form of identification
- A lien-free vehicle
You will also need to fill out our application. It will ask for your car's year, make, and mileage. The application will ask for contact information like your name, phone number, and zip code.
One big aspect of Cheetah Loan that usually separates us from other firms is our policy on title loan with no job. We actually accept other forms of income other than a steady job, though that is accepted. A loan could be approved if you are getting unemployment, disability, alimony, or even child support.
You might also want to know the legal specifications of a loan. Well, there are few things to know about getting a title loan in California, like the fact that loans that fall under $2,500 cannot be accompanied with interest rates that exceed 30 percent on any given year.
Of course, loans that are larger than the amount mentioned do not have a limit. Keep in mind that California regulations state that our lenders cannot let you sign a contract before you fully understand all interest rates and our late fees. You will also be notified of any consequences of failing to pay your loan.
In short, tell us your situation, and let us see what we can do to make title loans in Roseville, Calif., right for you.

Graphical abstract
Objectives This study sought to evaluate the impact of chronic thrombocytopenia (cTCP) on clinical outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Background The impact of cTCP on clinical outcomes after PCI is not well described. Results from single-center observational studies and subgroup analysis of randomized trials have been conflicting and these patients are either excluded or under-represented in randomized controlled trials.
Methods Using the 2012 to 2014 National (Nationwide) Inpatient Sample database, the study identified patients who underwent PCI with or without cTCP as a chronic condition variable indicator. Propensity score matching was performed using logistic regression to control for differences in baseline characteristics. The primary outcome of interest was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes of interest included in-hospital post-PCI bleeding events, post-PCI blood and platelet transfusion, vascular complications, ischemic cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs), hemorrhagic CVAs, and length of stay.
Results Propensity matching yielded a cohort of 65,130 patients (32,565 with and without cTCP). Compared with those without cTCP, PCI in patients with cTCP was associated with higher risk for bleeding complications (odds ratio [OR]: 2.40; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.05 to 2.72; p < 0.0001), requiring blood transfusion (OR: 2.10; 95% CI: 1.80 to 2.24; p < 0.0001), requiring platelet transfusion (OR: 11.70; 95% CI: 6.00 to 22.60; p < 0.0001), higher risk for vascular complications (OR: 1.94; 95% CI: 1.43 to 2.63; p < 0.0001), ischemic CVA (OR: 1.60; 95% CI: 1.20 to 2.10; p = 0.01), and higher in-hospital mortality (OR: 2.30; 95% CI: 1.90 to 2.70; p < 0.0001), but without a significant difference in hemorrhagic CVA (OR: 1.50; 95% CI: 0.70 to 3.10; p = 0.27).
Conclusions In this large contemporary cohort, patients with cTCP were at higher risk of a multitude of complications, including higher risk of in-hospital mortality.

Researchers have recently discovered female dolphins have a secret weapon against fertilization from unwanted partners: complex vaginal structures.
To compare the genitalia, Dara Orbach, a biologist at Dalhousie University in Canada, created silicone molds of the vaginas of four types of marine mammals—common porpoises, common seals, and common and bottlenose dolphins—that had died of natural causes.
She and her team then used penises from deceased male counterparts and inflated them with saline to simulate an erection. Then they inserted the penises into the vagina casts and imaged them using CT scans to determine the best fit and positions for fertilization.
The researchers found that while the vaginas of common dolphins and common seals more easily accepted the penises, common porpoise and bottlenose dolphins had extensive folds that prevented easy entry.
Male bottlenose dolphins form alliances with two to four other dolphins for mating purposes, and in those circumstances, females tend to have little say with whom she mates. It could be one or all, even. But these vaginal folds could give her some control over the situation.
Josh Gabbatiss reporting for New Scientist explains just how she controls the paternity:
In all four species studied, the ideal position for successful fertilisation appeared to be the male on top with his penis hooked underneath the female. Any deviation from this tended to result in unsuccessful penetration. That is consistent with Orbach and Mann's observations of wild porpoises and dolphins mating.
This combination of precise positioning and complex vaginal structures means that subtle mid-copulation movements by females could send the penis the wrong way in their vaginas, preventing fertilisation.
Female cetaceans aren't the only animals with complex vaginal structures. In previous studies, Brennan found evidence that duck vaginas have evolved to make it harder for male ducks to force copulation.
Diversity in penises size and shape is relatively well known in dolphins and other cetaceans, which suggests suggest that there is a similar diversity in vaginas—not just in these species, but others with complex genitalia, too.

The search for their first points of the season goes on for Barnstaple Town as they went down by the odd goal in three.
Barnstaple started the game brightly with Neil Last having an effort saved by visiting keeper Eric Edge and Jordan Charran also having an effort palmed away, Jack Langford showed desire to get the rebound but couldn't keep the effort under the bar.
The visitors were pacy upfront, Edji Mbunga shot over the bar from the edge of the area, the first half was goalless and a fairly even affair.
The deadlock was broken on 54 minutes when a threw ball from sub Yeshaya Lomotey found Mbunga who ran through on goal and rounded Barnstaple keeper Rob Holmes and pass the ball into an empty net.
Barnstaple were level on 72 minutes when a Jack Langford cross was headed down by Jordan Charran into the path of Jack Rice-Lethaby who shot into the bottom corner of the net to bring the home side level.
The knockout blow was on 82 minutes when Mbunga chested a pass through to Sub Ewan Dunbar who rifled a shot past Holmes at the near post. Barnstaple drove forward in search of an equaliser but the centre back pairing of Korey Pring and Joe Noakes dealt with any danger.
The last action of the game saw Barnstaple Keeper Holmes misjudge a long ball and Adam Bloomfield ran through but was brought down by Holmes, the resulting penalty taken by Slimbridge was saved low down in the bottom left hand corner by Holmes
Dave Staddon.

Transfer gossip: John Stones back on Chelsea radar; Gunners want Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
The latest round of transfer window speculation appears to be pretty wild, with many of the stories on the back pages of today's newspapers a little hard to believe.
The Daily Star seem determined to link a star player with a move to Manchester United every 24 hours - and today's shining star is Chelsea's Eden Hazard.
It seems increasingly likely that Hazard will be the subject of transfer interest from Real Madrid next summer, as they look to reshape their team following the probable departure of Cristiano Ronaldo.
As new Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane is a noted admirer of Hazard, links with the Belgium are predictable, yet the notion that he could end up at Old Trafford seems a little less likely.
Hazard already turned down an offer to sign for United when he moved to Chelsea from Lille back in 2012, so we don't see any chance of the Blues selling their reigning Player of the Year to a Premier League rival any time soon.
We know that they silly season is firmly in overdrive and the esteemed Daily Telegraph are reporting that Spurs striker Harry Kane is wanted to replace none other than Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid.
Kane was rated among the most valuable players in world football in a slightly confusing survey earlier this week and while we at Independent.ie are big admirers of the England striker, the idea that he could fill Ronaldo's boots at the Bernabeu seems fanciful in the extreme.
Links with Real Madrid will probably be welcomed by Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, who did a remarkable job of draining a world record £86m out of the bank balance of the Spanish giants when he sold them Gareth Bale in the summer of 2013 and he would probably be willing to do business again if a similar amount of cash was thrown onto the negotiating table.
However, Spurs are determined to hang on to homegrown star Kane, with a bumper new contract more likely than a move for their star man in the next few months.
Fresh reports are suggesting that Chelsea will renew their bid to sign Everton defender John Stones, even though Independent.ie sources have been informed that there is no chance of the England defender leaving Goodison Park any time soon.
The Sun are running a story suggesting Stones is back on Chelsea's radar, but we understand there that Everton are determined to hang on to their 21-year-old centre-back.
The Toffees remain hopeful that they can encourage Stones to extend his contract at the club ahead of what is expected to be another summer of transfer speculation, with Barcelona even being mentioned as a club following the progress of one of Europe's rising stars.
Everton boss Roberto Martinez has also dismissed reports that he has a verbal agreement with the likes of Stones and striker Romelu Lukaku that will allow them to leave the club this summer if big money bids comes in for them.
ARSENAL COULD GET THEIR MAN FOR £60m
The Daily Express are running the story that Arsenal could be successful in a move for Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang this month – if they offer £60m for the French forward.
Aubameyang is a man in demand after scoring a glut of goals in the Bundesliga this season and his price tag appears to be rising by the day as the top Premier League clubs look to acquire his services.
Liverpool have been linked with a move for Aubameyang in recent days, but it is Arsenal's name that continues to appear in the strongest rumours both in Germany and England.
It remains to be seen whether Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger would sanction a £60m for any player, although the Gunners policy could change this summer if the veteran tactician retires from the game at the end of this season.

Cheap One Day Car Insurance
You could save money with one-day car cover.
Driving without car insurance is never worth the risk, regardless of how little time you need to drive for. You can now take out car insurance for just one day quickly and easily, for occasions when you need to use a vehicle for a short period of time.
Here, we cover the basics of one day car insurance, how much daily policies cost, and what requirements there are.

What is One Day Car Insurance?
One day car insurance is an ideal and affordable way of covering yourself in situations that do not require the standard, annual protection. Examples include one-off occasions such as insuring a borrowed car to move out of university or hiring a vehicle for whatever reason it may be.
Its benefits are near-enough identical to annual insurance policies but on a short-term basis, and can often be taken out for both cars and motorcycles.
Occasionally, some annual fully comprehensive insurance policies include a 'drive other cars' additional option, which often only offers third-party insurance and may not cover you as well as a one-day, comprehensive policy would.
This isn't normally added to your policy unless you opt to pay an additional fee, but be sure to check for it before taking out one day cover.
Some people choose to be added as a named driver, but that is a considerably more expensive option and the person who owns the vehicle is likely to lose their no claims bonus if you crash their car.
One Day Cover and No Claims Discounts
Contrary to being a named driver, should you take out a one day car insurance policy and have an accident, the owner of the vehicle is very unlikely to lose their no claims bonus with most reliable insurance companies.
Your own annual policy's no claims discount is also unlikely to be affected by an accident while insured on one day car insurance, meaning that you could save even more money in the long-run.
How Much Does One Day Car Insurance Cost?
The price of one day car insurance in the UK can be an average of around £25-45 a day, depending on the vehicle, your driving history, and the reason for taking out the cover.
It is worth noting that the cost of temporary one day car insurance can vary significantly between companies, so try not to rush into buying the first policy you come across.
It is an affordable alternative to being added as a named driver on a policy, and is hugely convenient in a number of situations as listed here (link to h2 anchor below that lists them).
Case Study
To provide you with a clearer idea of the price of daily insurance for some drivers, we conducted a short case study.
Based on a 21-year-old driver with four years' driving experience, insuring a Toyota AYGO for one-day emergency cover would cost £36.98.
For the same emergency cover of the same car, it would cost a 33-year-old driver with 10+ years' driving experience a cheaper £29.01.
Both included a voluntary excess of £250, which lowered each price by around £2. Your voluntary excess is likely to decrease the amount you pay initially for the policy, so raising it to £500 would further reduce the cost.
However, it's important to remember that you will have to pay that amount towards damages should you be involved in an accident, so don't offer an amount you wouldn't be able to afford.
Breakdown cover can be added at an additional £1-2 a day on average, which may be worth considering if you plan on travelling a fair distance.
When Would you Need Car Insurance for One Day?
One day insurance for your car can come in handy for a number of circumstances, including:
Test drives
Borrowing a friend or family member's car
Shared driving on holiday
Business trips
Using a courtesy car or a hired car
If there's a problem with your annual insurance
Moving out of (or into) university
Moving houses
Using your rarely driven classic car
What Does One Day Insurance Include?
Temporary car insurance allows you to take out a policy without any long-term contract commitments, with cover from anywhere between one day and 28 days being included in the short-term bracket.
Car insurance for one day is usually on a comprehensive cover basis, meaning that you get extensive cover rather than just a third-party policy.
You are able to buy insurance as and when you need it, with no commitments and certainly not at the price of adding a full policy if you only use the vehicle on rare occasions.
Daily car insurance policies also typically provide basic cover while driving in Europe and can be purchased instantly for cover on the same day, the following day or even a scheduled date in advance.
Who Can Take Out One Day Car Insurance?
To begin the process of your quote, all you need is a driving licence, your name and address, details of the vehicle, and the date and time you want the policy to begin.
Most comparison sites can provide a general quote in around two minutes, but for a more detailed and personal quote for your own situation, get in touch with a dedicated insurance broker or provider and they will undoubtedly find the best deal for you.
Requirements for Daily Car Insurance
Companies differ slightly in terms of the wording of their policy, which is why our insurance advice service can be of such great use by saving you valuable time and effort.
Does the Driver's Age Matter?
Due to each company differing, there isn't a clear answer to how old you have to be to take out one day car insurance cover. However, most require the driver to be aged between 19 and 75-years-old but there are options for all drivers.
While some companies have a requirement that drivers must be over 21-years-old, others provide one day car insurance for new drivers – including 17-year-olds – and even learners.
Daily insurance, as is the case with most types of car insurance, is more likely to be cheaper for drivers over the age of 25.
So, generally, your age will impact the price of the policy but no matter what your age or experience of driving is, you should be able to find an insurer to provide you with an affordable policy.
Car Value and Daily Car Insurance
The value of the car is also a factor closely considered by car insurance companies in the UK, with many policies having a maximum value of £40,000 to £50,000, meaning that super car rentals are out of the question through most insurers.
The majority of policies also include a minimum value that will be stated clearly on the policy quote, averaging at around £800 to £1,500 depending on the company.
Can I get One Day Insurance if I have Points on my Licence?
You are likely to be rewarded with a cheaper price if you have no previous claims or points on your licence, but if you do, look out for the terms and conditions which may exclude drivers with a certain amount of offences or claims.
Some policies will only allow drivers with up to six or seven points and up to two claims in the last three years – again fluctuating between each company – so make sure you are eligible in those terms.
You should also be wary of the compulsory excess for the policy which generally ranges from around £350 to £500 and is separate to the voluntary excess that you deicide yourself.
What About Longer Types of Insurance?
You are able to extend your policy on a daily basis, but bear in mind that the longer you use daily insurance covers, the more expensive it will get.
Remember that short-term, temporary car insurance usually lasts anything up to 28 days, so plan accordingly. If you feel you may use the car for longer than a month, there are other long-term solutions.
It's also important to note that if you do decide to take out an annual contract but intend on cancelling it before the expiry date, you are likely to be hit with a fee of around £80.

Accounts receivable factoring leverages your hard work and client base to accelerate your growth.
Host: "When you're trying to evaluate whether you're going to lend someone money, are you just looking at receivables? Do you also take into account the entrepreneurial nature of the guy sitting across the table from you?"
Gage explains: "When considering candidates, obviously a factoring company will look at the business itself, but more importantly we look at their customers. If they're doing business with someone like The Cleveland Clinic or Stouffers – or any local company with strong credit, they're a good candidate. Of course, we want to make sure their business is stable and has good growth potential, but their customers are important, too."
Factoring loans has enjoyed a long, profitable history.
Gage comments on the history of factoring loans: "I don't think people really understand that accounts receivable factoring is probably one of the oldest businesses in the world.

The radiators that supply your home's hot water heat need to be bled occasionally. This is true for both standing and baseboard radiators. Bleeding radiators will ensure that air is removed so that water flows correctly through the system. It should be done every couple of months as a maintenance task or if the radiators do not seem to be working properly.
Step 1
Ensure that the heating system is warmed up and at normal pressure.
Step 2
Locate the radiator farthest away from the boiler system, and then find its valve. The valve is typically near the piping that enters the floor. On a baseboard radiator, the valve may be behind the small door on the end of the unit. On a standing radiator, the valve typically sits on top on the end of the unit.
Step 3
Determine what type of tool you will need. Typically it will be either a flat-blade screwdriver or a radiator key.
Step 4
Place the cup or bowl under the spout to catch the water. The space between the radiator and floor will dictate the size of the container.
Step 5
Turn the valve counterclockwise slowly. Leave the valve open until only water (no air) is being released. Remember, your job is to get the air out of the system, not to drain a large amount of water.
Step 6
Tighten the valve. Repeat the process at the next nearest radiator.
Step 7
Return to the first radiator that you bled. Open the valve. If only water comes out, you have competed the task. If air comes out, return to the start of the process and repeat.

Review of Positive Psychology Applications in Clinical Medical Populations
Psychology Research Group, Sheffield Hallam University, Unit 8 Science Park, Sheffield S1 2 WB, UK
Academic Editor: Helen Pattison
Healthcare 2016, 4(3), 66; https://doi.org/10.3390/healthcare4030066
Received: 8 March 2016 / Revised: 26 August 2016 / Accepted: 2 September 2016 / Published: 7 September 2016
(This article belongs to the Special Issue Health Psychology in Healthcare Settings)
This review examines the application of positive psychology concepts in physical health care contexts. Positive psychology aims to promote well-being in the general population. Studies identifying character strengths associated with well-being in healthy populations are numerous. Such strengths have been classified and Positive Psychology Interventions (PPIs) have been created to further develop these strengths in individuals. Positive psychology research is increasingly being undertaken in health care contexts. The review identified that most of this research involves measuring character strengths and their association with health outcomes in patients with a range of different conditions, similar to the position in positive psychology research on non-clinical populations. More recently, PPIs are beginning to be applied to clinical populations with physical health problems and this research, although relatively scarce, is reviewed here for cancer, coronary heart disease, and diabetes. In common with PPIs being evaluated in the general population, high quality studies are scarce. Applying PPIs to patients with serious health conditions presents significant challenges to health psychologists. They must ensure that patients are dealt with appropriately and ethically, given that exaggerated claims for PPIs are made on the internet quite frequently. This is discussed along with the need for more high quality research. View Full-Text

Snowsdale is a small village located in the northern part of Galla.
It was sacked by bandits in 449 HE[1] and many died. Veralidaine Sarrasri became a member of a wolf pack and hunted down the culprits who killed her mother and maternal grandfather. She was hunted by Hakkon Falconer and a group of men from the village who claimed that she needed to be put down like a rabid bear that once ravaged through the village. Daine managed to escape to Cría.
After Sarra's death, she was resurrected as a minor goddess by her divine lover Weiryn, northern god of the hunt. She became a local goddess of healing and would appear in the well of Snowsdale to give advice. None of the villagers know that their Green Lady is really Sarra Beneksri.
Known residents
- Benek Todorsra, died in raid
- Sarra Beneksri, died in raid, brought back later as a lesser goddess
- Veralidaine Sarrasri, daughter of Sarra and Weiryn
- Hakkon Falconer

Mumbai, February 06: Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan, who is currently the target of Shiv Sena over his remarks against the exclusion of Pakistani players in the IPL, arrived at the Mumbai airport amidst tight security on Saturday afternoon. Speaking to the media outside the airport, the actor said, "Whatever I will say will be misinterpreted and turned around. I have only said what an Indian would say. I am what I am because of Mumbai. I think there is a misunderstanding. And if (Bal) Thackeray calls me, I will go to meet him at Matoshree."
While it is clear that SRK is in a mood to compromise, the Shiv Sena too has retracted from its earlier stance. Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray has said that he will allow the release of SRK's latest film, 'My Name Is Khan'.
Meanwhile, after an important meeting of the Shiv Sena at Matoshree, Uddhav Thackeray said that the statements in 'Saamna' have been misinterpreted and they have not stopped opposing Shah Rukh Khan. He also said that the Shiv Sena would plan further action after Shah Rukh makes his stand clear.
Earlier, Bal Thackeray had said in party mouthpiece 'Saamana': "Let Shah Rukh release the film with the blessings of the Italian woman (Sonia Gandhi) and Yuvraj (Rahul Gandhi) without any protection and let it run in any theatre anywhere in the country. Sena will not oppose it."
"Traitors, do whatever you want to do with the blessings of Congress. Sena won't stop you. Why should the heads of Shiv Sainiks bleed and they be jailed without any reason," Thackeray wrote.
The actor, who was in the US with co-star Kajol to ring the Nasdaq opening bell as well as to promote his film 'My Name Is Khan', had created a huge controversy back home, when he favoured the inclusion of Pakistani players in the IPL.
The change in the attitude of SRK as well as the Shiv Sena appears strange after a huge furore over the IPL issue. The further line of action between the actor and the party remains to be seen.

At long last, we finally have a glimpse of Tom Hardy ("Peaky Blinders") as Marvel's Spider-Man villain-turned-antihero, Venom, in the upcoming standalone film of the same name. See the official image below, courtesy of IGN.
The photo is a close-up look at Hardy in character as Eddie Brock, who moonlights as Venom, Spider-Man's one-time enemy turned to the good side. Brock is a reporter, illustrated by the character's note-taking journal in the photo. According to IGN, the photo also holds a series of Easter eggs, including several entries in Eddie's journal that reveal some of the film's plot points. Per IGN, the notes refer to the Life Foundation, a dark survivalist group convinced the world will end in a rain of nuclear attacks. The wealthy group plans to rebuild their own society post-apocalypse, and planned to protect themselves with five beings called Agony, Phage, Riot, Lasher and Scream, according to Marvel canon. The first two questions in the entry suggest that Eddie is investigating the Life Foundation, questioning how the Life Foundation tests its pharmaceuticals and
However, the final question, which is partially hidden by Eddie's finger, reads: "That you recruit the most vulnerable of us to volunteer for the testing that more often than not end up [killing] them?" Clearly, Eddie knows the group's been preying on the weak for their own murderous ends; but will Eddie already be a symbiote from which the Life Foundation spawns its demonic protectors (taking from Marvel canon), or will Venom be created by the Life Foundation itself?
According to director Ruben Fleischer ("Zombieland"), "Venom's" plot will closely follow the antihero's arc in the "Venom: Lethal Protector" and "The Planet of the Symbiotes" comic books; in the former, Venom establishes a home in SF after coming to a truce with Spider-Man, and the latter follows Eddie Brock's war against an army of symbiotes. While Spider-Man and the Scarlet Spider show up to help Venom defeat the symbiote army, but Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige already confirmed that Spider-Man won't be in "Venom." We'll just have to wait and see how everything comes together in October.
"Venom" has assembled an impressive ensemble for the upcoming film, with Michelle Williams ("All the Money in the World"), Riz Ahmed ("The Night Of") and Jenny Slate ("Gifted") set to star alongside Hardy. Fleischer directs off a script from Scott Rosenberg ("High Fidelity"), Jeff Pinkner ("The Amazing Spider-Man 2") and Kelly Marcel ("Fifty Shades of Grey"). Venom's on-screen role was originated by Topher Grace ("Intestellar") in "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" alongside Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man.
"Venom" swings into theaters Oct. 5.

The World Is Yours - Full Movie Watch Online, Download and Stream HD
The World Is Yours
American audiences take the Tarantino-ization of genre cinema for granted, but not so the French, who adore the director (who won the Future World Palme d'Or for "Pulp Fiction") but never went so far as to imitate him outright, until now. Director Romain Gavras' "The World Is Yours" is the long overdue yet entirely unnecessary gangster movie that French audiences have been missing all this time — a fresh riff on "Les Tontons flingueurs" by way of "Jackie Brown" — and judging by the uproarious reception the film received at its Director's Fortnight premiere in Cannes, they're grateful to have a cocky, talky, high-attitude crime saga for themselves.
Following Gavras' gonzo redheads-will-inherit-the-earth debut, "Our Day Will Come," this film is a massive change of tone for the director, son The Rider of politically conscious "Z" auteur Costa-Gavras and a visionary music-video helmer in his own right. Whereas the younger Gavras' first feature demonstrated both his high-level technical skill and the confidence to subvert audience expectations, this one feels more mainstream — and ought to do big business in France while remaining more of a cult novelty abroad (maybe the world isn't theirs after all).
Though the title sounds like a variation on "Our Day Will Come," film buffs should recognize it as a wink to the granddaddy of modern gangster movies — not Be Vaght Sham "The Godfather" but Brian De Palma's "Scarface," which was just as much an influence on Gavras here as "Reservoir Dogs." Still, Tarantino is the clear model for the movie's colorful gallery of criminal types, who express themselves in self-consciously cool, pop-culture-referencing dialogue (in the second scene, when a getaway driver shares a long-winded analysis of kitschy French pop song "La vie ne m'apprend rien," you can guess where Gavras got the idea). Scraping by on the periphery of the Paris underworld, these small-time hoods would be right at home in a Guy Ritchie caper, though Gavras and co-writers Karim Boukercha et Noé Debré expand the cartoonish archetype by incorporating aspects of class and race.

Rackspace opens 'community store' for cloud tools
Rackspace opens a free Web portal for cloud management tools and applications with partners.
Claiming to be motivated by community spirit, Rackspace has announced a storefront for cloud management tools and applications through selected partnerships with cloud management veterans like RightScale and the likes of Zeus Technology's Zeus Extensible Traffic Manager.
"The portal in and of itself is not intended to be a store," said Jim Curry, the VP of corporate development at Rackspace Hosting. He said that the community side of the website will enable developers to submit projects as well as users to leave feedback, while the partners' side of the site would be limited to a dozen or so companies that would have their software tools vetted and supported by Rackspace. He stressed that the site simply had links to submitter's' websites and didn't include vending facilities. "We're not actually booking any sales from these offerings," he said.
Curry said that Rackspace has taken a different tack from its competitors in part because it is a quick, cheap and easy way to build goodwill and that it doesn't want to move away from its core business of hosting. Rackspace saw benefits from sharing information about how Cloud Tools partners' customers use cloud computing, and that kind of collaboration was more than enough return for the fairly standard community website Rackspace has put together. "The actual cost of the portal: it's nothing" relative to Rackspace's bottom line, he said.
"From our point of view, they've done everything right in opening [a cloud computing] ecosystem to partners," said Michael Crandell, CEO of RightScale. He said the effort would encourage experimentation and growth, as well as help clarify the debate around cloud computing. "It's easy to become jaded in this world where everything is 'cloud'," he said.
"I think it's naïve not to engage the community," said Curry. He said the level of interest from developers and startups that want to participate is on a steep curve. He noted that Rackspace's APIs have only been public property for six weeks, but he's seen daily inquiries about getting onto the Cloud Tools site and expects participation to skyrocket after today's launch. He's more than comfortable not making money for the new site. Bottom line for Rackspace, said Curry: "We want to sell more hosting."

Online Auctions May Offer Great Deals―But Don't Get Ripped Off!
Buying something at a terrific price through an online auction can be fun and rewarding―but they don't always offer a happy ending. Here's how you can avoid being cheated.
Buzzle Staff
Last Updated: Jan 14, 2019
Better Business Bureaus across the country regularly receive complaints from online auction bidders who believe they have been tricked or defrauded. "There are some pretty sad tales," says Steve Cole, president and CEO of the Council of Better Business Bureaus.
"Some buyers fail to receive any merchandise whatsoever; others receive an item that in no way resembles what was advertised. There are buyers who report being misled about the terms of the sale. We also hear from bidders who were tricked into using fake escrow sites when paying for their purchases."
Although the majority of online auction transactions go off without a hitch, there are plenty of situations where the winning bidder doesn't feel like bragging. BBBs in the United States and Canada are offering suggestions to online shoppers to help them learn how to bid safely and successfully at Internet auction sites.
"If you use care and common sense, you'll secure some great bargains by avoiding unethical sellers," Cole says. The BBB offers some useful suggestions that can help ensure satisfactory conclusions to an online auction.
Choose the auction site carefully.
Be sure to participate in online auctions only on legitimate auction websites. Carefully read the directions for bidders and sellers, and learn what types of protection the site offers before bidding.
Some sites offer insurance to protect bidders from losing money on a sale. At the very minimum, a site should offer a guarantee or some kind of security system that screens out fraudulent sellers.
Know the terms of the transaction before you bid.
A common pitfall for some bidders is self-inflicted. Each auction should list the details of the transaction, such as who pays for shipping and delivery, how much the shipping will cost, whether or not there are handling fees, whether or not the item is guaranteed, and what the seller's return policy is.
Insist on paying with an online payment service or a credit card.
The advantage of using a service or a credit card to pay for an auction item is that if you don't receive it, you can challenge the charges and have your card issuer be your advocate. If you use an online service, check out their policies to see what protection you're afforded if the seller doesn't deliver as promised.
Be cautious about paying with a check or money order, because you will have little recourse if things go wrong, and you will most likely lose your payment.
For a big purchase, consider an escrow service.
If your purchase involves paying a large sum of money up front, you may want to use a third-party escrow service that will hold your payment until you receive and approve the item you're buying. As with the auction site, always verify that the escrow service is reputable.
If the seller demands that you use a certain escrow service and you can't verify their legitimacy, pay attention to that red flag and back out of the deal.
Verify the seller's identity and check feedback ratings and other comments before placing a bid.
If a seller does not have any feedback comments and the auction listing does not provide any information about the seller, avoid doing business with them, especially for expensive items. Don't rely on e-mail communications alone to assure you of a seller's identity and legitimacy.
Some fraudulent sellers have actually gone so far as to use the Better Business Bureau logo or name in an attempt to convince buyers that they or an escrow service is operated or endorsed by the BBB. "It's particularly important to check with us if you see the Better Business Bureau name being used in an unusual manner," says Cole.
"We don't, for instance, manage financial transactions for online merchants, nor are we an escrow service." Shoppers are advised to always contact the BBB when there are questions concerning the legitimacy of a service or retailer, or if there are problems with a purchase.

When you are involved with as many loan originators as I am, you hear all kinds of stories and concepts about how to generate loan opportunities. I think over the last few years, so many people have focused on lead generation that they haven't spent too much time looking at conversion rates and profitability. A big issue was the issue of paying for leads. So I asked a number of originators to share some insights as to how they track their investment in buying leads and what the total return on that investment was, and how profitable it may or may not have been. The answers were pretty interesting.
- The number one most interesting item was that mostof the originators don't track their cost/hour investments in purchasing leads.
- As a total percentage of their marketing budget in time and money, they don't draw a comparison between purchasing leads and other opportunity generating investments.
- Last but not least, they don't work the math to show their effective income rate per hour of the work needed to generate each application that closes.
I believe that the mortgage business doesn't do a very good job at working through the numbers. In one specific case, a loan originator with a significant investment in time, money, and effort; the math was very interesting to work through. It also opened the door to another whole area of discussion that we will follow-up in the future, what "power" do you give up when you are in pursuit of those leads?
After working through the math, this loan originator saw that the net income after expenses on all the other areas used to generate opportunities, her net hourly rate for just generating the lead that closes was almost four times the hourly rate that was found on the leads that were purchased. In fact, the net income per hour prospecting and working the purchased leads netted $11.35 per hour invested!
Now this is just one set of numbers, but I believe that they do share a story. The story is that the work needed to obtain the opportunity can vary widely across the board. The time it takes to work each lead and convert it into a transaction is something that becomes really important to measure.
As we all know, the math used to calculate how "well" someone is doing in our industry can vary widely. Units closed and dollar volumes can be just the tip of the real story if you don't dig down to see the entire story. We all know people that have greatly inflated numbers or have huge teams of people funneling up that volume, or at what cost?
Purchasing leads isn't a bad thing by itself. Large production teams are not a bad thing by itself. Marketing agreements, desk rentals, joint advertising, and other opportunity generating techniques are not bad things by themselves; it's just vitally important that you know the true cost in time, effort, and assets and compare!
This loan originator discovered that making $11.35 an hour to work the leads to the point of a genuine loan opportunity wasn't worth the effort. Others may feel differently, but you really need to drill down and know the math to be sure you are happy with the money you are netting for the work you are doing!

Building photovoltaic, wind and hydro power plants is our core business. Our range of services extends from project development, detailed plant planning and the approval phase through to construction management. The end result of a process, sometimes developed over a period of years, is a grid-connected turnkey plant.
Our employees are constantly on the lookout for new project locations for power plants. Projects that may be at different development stages are also of interest. We purchase the relevant rights and bring the project to completion.
Throughout the entire planning phase, and taking local interests into account, we offer confidential support and help you develop ideas as to how your project can be brought to fruition. Our citizen participation model builds bridges and creates transparency. In the planning process, we pay upfront and bear the default risk.
Our experts are involved in the approval process and ensure that all the necessary steps are followed to obtain the respective building permits. Through discussions with the responsible authorities, we work out how the benefits and encumbrances can be distributed fairly at local level.
We remain actively involved in the construction phase of power plant projects, and drawing on our experience from more than 260 completed solar, wind and hydro power plants, ensure timely and cost-effective implementation.
In collaboration with municipal authorities and local players, we develop tailored financing concepts that enable citizens to participate in the power plants on their doorstep, so to speak. A good example of this is the citizen-owned "Bürgerwindpark Südliche Ortenau".
After completion of the power plants, these can be handed over to Green City Operations and management GmbH who will take care of the technical and commercial management of the plants. As part of the Green City AG, the company stands for the competent and reliable management of the individual power plants during the operational phase, with the emphasis on on plant monitoring, optimization, maintenance and fault management.

Hide Forgot
The seamonkey-1.0.8-x (critical) update prevents evolution from starting.
The following error occurs:
(evolution:32071): evolution-smime-WARNING **: Failed all methods for
initializing NSS
Trying to build evolution from the SRPM also does not work as the path for nspr
(mozilla 37:1.8) is not the same as the path for nspr (seamonkey 1.0.8).
Using the patch attached to this bug:
I was able to start Evolution building ... whether it fixes this bug, I will
report when it finishes.
rebuilding evolution did not help, the RPM produced built against seamonkey
1.0.8 is identical to the one produced against mozilla
There is a fix that works as a work around until another solution is done, which
list to create this symbolic link:
cd /usr/lib
ln -s firefox-184.108.40.206/libfreeb13.so .
Having libfreeb13.so in /usr/lib allows evolution to start ... removing it
prevents it from starting.
This fix is from the centos bugs tracker and mailing list:
I have exactly the same issue. After the latest rhn update evolution failed to
start. I did as suggested by Johnny (thanks), and got evolution to start. This
is very urgent, as I am sure many other people are running into the same issue,
and are completely lost as I!
OK ... that file name should have a "lowercase L" (l) not a one (1) ...
cd /usr/lib
ln -s firefox-126.96.36.199/libfreebl3.so
*** Bug 230048 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
libfreebl3.so is new to NSS3.11 and it is dlopened by libsoftokn3.so. Therefore
the seamonkey-nss library should be shipping libfreebl3.so in /usr/lib (and not
in the seamonkey main rpm). We are therefore respinning seamonkey packages to
replace the current erratum packages and will expidite them through QE and
release engineering.
FYI: This bug also breaks gaim
This bugzilla has Keywords: Regression.
Since no regressions are allowed between releases,
it is also being proposed as a blocker for this release.
Please resolve ASAP.
*** Bug 230111 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
An advisory has been issued which should help the problem
described in this bug report. This report is therefore being
closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information
on the solution and/or where to find the updated files,
please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report
if the solution does not work for you.
*** Bug 230070 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
