2015 ATP Montreal review
Another tennis week is over. Not the easiest, we'd say. Many top players were performing after holidays and it was difficult to predict their current physical form. That is why we sent you only one paid tip to Gulbis-Djokovic match. It was the 7th consecutive winning tip which enabled us to reach +500% to our initial bankroll. The last time we did it was in February and after that the fortune has reversed. Now we expect that unlucky period has ended and we'll get more profit.
One of the hottest tennis news was made by Nick Kyrgios who has been fined for an insulting remark to Stan Wawrinka about his new girlfriend. Now the Australian is far from being called our best loved players. We find his behavior unacceptable and unsporting.
As for the Montreal Masters, the tennis quality showed here was rather poor. Only a few sportsmen have gained their peak form: Gulbis, Isner, Chardy, Querrey, Goffin. All of them were up to their level. Mikhail Youzhny has made a deep progress but it was his opponent's poor play. The Russian is still far from his best. Rafael Nadal isn't shining either. The Spaniard moves very slowly and he still has to do his best to succeed somehow.
Milos Raonic has also displayed very average tennis. No aggression and many mistakes. Grigor Dimitrov is out of condition but we still believe that the Bulgarian will take his as traditionally he plays better at the end of the season. Nishikori is good but too exhausted. The Japanese had one tough match against Nadal and then had to more forces to oppose Murray. Djokovic looks good but the Serb should improve on before the US Open starts.
We want to say special words about Andy Murray. The Scot finally ended an eight-match losing streak against Novak Djokovic beating the World No.1 for the first time in two years. The both players showed high-quality tennis but it was Murray who dictated the whole match and managed to survive it mentally. Novak kept playing even on match balls but Andy served out for the match. Now it's very curious to see how this match will reflect on their rivalry. We suppose that the Serb will try even harder to keep his first ranking position.
And we are already looking forward to the Cincinnati Masters. There will be lots of battles and we are supposed to publish 3-4 profit-driven tips. So don't hesitate to join our mail list and start winning with us!

Over the last several months a new sculpture has been in the making. The private bank Zimmerberg has commissioned me to conceive a sculpture for their new branch in the town of Oberrieden in the canton of Zurich. The history of this bank inspired me– in particular its roots which have been almost 200 years in the making. Everything starts with a strong base or root – only then it can grow steadily and stay stable. This Sculpture pictures strength, imagination and the concept that even the tiniest idea can grow into something big and powerful. When the sculpture was created, the town of Oberrieden and its people where always on my mind. This tree is here for everyone to get inspiration, as a sort of Magic Tree.
What a wonderful project!

STRINGS ATTACHED (LOVE STORY)7:52 am
If you missed last week's episode click HERE
Running a master's program in an institution 3 hours distance from their location and topping it up with a private organization job wasn't funny for Slyvia but Tony's support helped to cushion her stress.
It was one of those nights when Slyvia got home tired after the long journey and stress at the university. She gratefully ate up the special meal Tony had prepared for her; wasn't he really sweet? and he also listened patiently to her long tale of the day's event.
She finally took a shower, was tucked up in bed, ready to drift off to dreamland. Tony was taking his bath and singing in his usual, "horrible" voice. She laughed to herself.
Tony's non-stop message tone came on and gave her no peace. "Network messages, am sure" She thought to herself as she reluctantly dragged the phone from the far end of the bed.
Her eyes widened and sudden cold chills ran down her body; "What?!!" It was a message from a lady, Beauty:- I REALLY ENJOYED MYSELF TODAY AS ALWAYS. THANKS FOR TONIGHT ALSO. GOOD NIGHT. SWEET DREAMS.
She quickly checked for previous messages and chats; there was nothing. Then his call log; Obviously, Beauty was on his recent daily contacts; the last one was 7pm this evening. Not long before he got back home. The bathroom door opens.
She drops the phone quickly and covers herself up trying to digest what she saw. "Could Tony be........ CHEATING? Oh my God!" Sleep had suddenly escaped from her eyes.
The days that followed became very distracted for Slyvia. One of suspicions and looking for loopholes.She needed answers. She needed to see this; Beauty atleast, face to face. Did they work together at his office? She didn't even know how to ask him. She felt sick inside; she couldn't function properly. Her nights were long, sleepless and full of thoughts. Tony noticed and inquired; Her answer was "nothing".
It killed her daily to check his phone consistently and see Beauty on his contact log. Worse of all, oneday his phone rang at the dinning table; it was her. He silenced it and ignored it. Tony never ignored calls except there was SOMETHING! Then, he typed a quick message which he had deleted before she could get hold of the phone. Did he know she was suspicious?
She even paid him a sudden visit at work oneday, hoping to catch him red-handed; Too bad, they were in a closed door meeting. So nothing!Everything, every comment, every step, every outing, every phone beep, every lady he waved at became suspicious. She couldn't seem to trust his heavy traffic! Over-time work! Is it true that all men cheat? Even the ones that seem to fear God? They keep a faithful wife at home as a trophy and flirt outside? Those times he would claim he forgot his ring at home; he must have deliberately left it. It all made sense now.
Oneday, a co-worker visited Tony and they stood at the balcony discussing while she eavesdropped; The man joked about something like " Tony's office girlfriend " and Tony just laughed. Seriously?!! His affair was not even a secret at the office.
Tony's office soon had a party to celebrate their achievements; he explained it was strictly for the staff. She found it hard to believe. It started in the evening and would finish late. Those hours were long and painful for her, trying to figure out who he was flirting with over there. On getting home; after he had dozed off tiredly. She checked his phone as usual; The pictures of the party was definitely there; and there was this lady who appeared everywhere. "This must be the witch and husband snatcher clinging to my man" Slyvia hissed in disgust.
Sylvia's rage increased; Sincerely, That lady in the picture was "beautiful", wonderful body figure! and she looked really hot! Worse of all, a co-worker! She suddenly felt ugly and out of place. He looked very happy in the pictures. She wasn't going to let them toy with her. She knew her self-worth! "Tony cannot treat me like this. Trample on my love like this".
Then, the last straw; He took a one week's trip on an official assignment; He communicated with Sylvia through short messages saying he was very busy in the day and too tired at night. Slyvia called him very early one morning, at about 5am, using a new number; It was a woman's voice at the other end of the line. How come? At this hour? She quickly cut the call. Her fear was confirmed. Slyvia almost fainted. Was he on a vacation on this supposed official assignment?.....
He decieved her........

New Delhi: Download speed on 4G network of Reliance Jio during its beta-test phase peaked at 70 megabit per second but remained in 15-30 mbps range on most occasions, as per field trial report by brokerage firm Credit Suisse.
The report said download speed of Reliance Jio 4G service was impressive but "it is still an empty network". It also found urban coverage of RJio network at par with incumbents but remarked rural coverage as "poor".
"We experienced peak download speed of 70 Mbps during our trials, and on most occasions in the 15-30 Mbps range, even on the move," a report by Credit Suisse Research Analysts Sunil Tirumalai and Chunky Shah said.
At 70 mbps download speed, a bollywood movie size video can be downloaded in about half a minute while at 15-30 mbps the same can be downloaded in about three minutes.
The report compared commercially launched 4G service of telecom major Airtel and beta network of Reliance Jio and found "Airtel 4G giving 10-20 Mbps, often slower than Jio, and 3G network speeds of sub 2Mbps (peak 7 Mbps)."
Analysts found urban coverage of RJio network at par with incumbents but remarked rural coverage as "poor".
During trials analysts experienced call drop-free RJio network in Mumbai but lost signal 3-4 times when they entered on village roads.
Analysts said that they experienced seamless phone call experience between RJio and network of other telecom operators.
"Overall, our take away is that the Rjio network is turning out to be as strong a threat to incumbents as we had feared. Next focus would be on pricing and marketing execution," the report said.Reliance Jio is expected to launch 4G services this month. PRS MR

Pharma R&D Today
Ideas and Insight supporting all stages of Drug Discovery & Development
Start-up Spotlight: Proteios
Posted on November 11th, 2016 by Betsy Davis in Pharma R&D
This week's Start-Up Spotlight, featuring start-ups in the pharmaceutical and biotech spaces, is showcasing the Seattle-based firm Proteios. Dr. Bob Snyder, Managing Director of Proteios, discusses the company and its game-changing research.
What does Proteios do?
Proteios is a leader in protein technology used for the manipulation and purification of recombinant proteins. We are developing research grade protein purification kits based on Car9 tags to enable researchers to easily, economically and rapidly purify recombinant proteins. Kits are available in various sizes at one tenth the cost of the popular His-tag based kits and can purify proteins in less than 15 minutes without the use of heavy metals.
Tell us a little about the company's background.
Proteios is a spin-out from the University of Washington, where the Car9 technology was developed in the laboratory of Prof. Francois Baneyx, who was awarded a $50,000 grant from the University's commercialization center to spin-out the patent-pending Car9 technology. Proteios was founded by Prof. Baneyx and myself—a 30-year veteran of life science research and commercialization—to bring products to market based on Car9 technology.
What is Proteios trying to achieve?
The company is initially focused on the development of the recombinant protein purification kits, but Car9 technology also shows great promise for the purification of industrial enzymes and biopharmaceuticals. Recombinant biopharmaceuticals purified using His-tag based methods lack FDA approval due to the high concentrations of heavy metal contaminants; Car9 solves this issue with the use of silica resin during the purification process. Proteios' strategy is to first offer an alternative to His-tag purification kits to life science researchers and then penetrate the industrial enzyme market.
Why is this research so important? What impact will it have on the industry?
The advance of human civilization has been driven by game-changing technologies that give us new capabilities to improve the fundamental aspects of our lives. One game-changing technology of the future is synthetic biology. Synthetic biology is the engineering of biology to carry out the various functions that we need and want, from producing new food ingredients to molecules for treating cancer, enabling us to engineer biology in the same way that we create computers using electronic components. Synthetic biology is an emerging field of science, which involves the development of genetically engineered products. Moreover, it applies various techniques to design and engineer biologically-based parts, as well as redesign existing and natural occurring biological systems. A fundamental bottleneck in the process is isolating and purifying the protein of interest from the thousands of proteins naturally produced by the host cell. Proteios' Car9 technology offers many advantages over current techniques in ease-of-use, low cost, and speed.
The global synthetic biology market accounted for $3,933.9 million in 2014, and it is expected to grow with a CAGR of 35.4% during 2015-2020.
What are the next steps for Proteios?
Prof. Baneyx's lab is currently optimizing the Car9 technology for use in research grade recombinant protein purification kits. Proteios will commercialize these kits, initially through an online store from its web site and it will later add a global distribution partner.
In parallel, Proteios will optimize the Car9 technology for use in industrial enzyme manufacturing.
Why is this work particularly important now?
The pharmaceutical industry is undergoing a deep transformation from small molecule drugs to biologics. Over the last decade, the percentage share of biologic-based drugs—including vaccines, therapeutic proteins and monoclonal antibodies—has seen a steady growth of 13.3 percent per year, compared to a 4.2 percent decrease for other drugs. Biologics now account for 55 percent of new drug approvals and 64 percent of pipeline drugs. Use of recombinant proteins as therapeutics has become an attractive strategy for altering the biology of disease progression and offers significant commercial opportunities. Proteins synthesized by host cells ultimately need to be recovered in a functionally active state. Each step in the process requires time and resources, and every step of recovery and purification results in loss of yield.
Are you looking for partners?
Proteios is currently looking for distribution partners for its research grade recombinant protein purification kits. The partner should have a global presence in the life science market.
Within the next 12 months, Proteios will begin looking for collaboration partners to validate the use of Car9 technology for the manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals.

Chaco Culture National Historic Park, a World Heritage Site, preserves a major prehistoric center of ceremony and trade in the Four Corners region. Natural beauty and cultural significance meet in this corner of northwestern New Mexico where ruins, artifacts, and other archeological sites radiate from Chaco Canyon's cultural epicenter. Chaco and many sites in the Greater Chaco Region continue to be sacred for modern-day Pueblo, Navajo and other tribes who share a connection with this landscape through their cultural ties that are woven into it.
Proposed expansions of oil and gas development on nearby Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands continue to threaten special cultural areas both within and outside of the Park. Infrastructure such as roads, powerlines, pipelines, pump jacks, tanks, generators, and processing plants fragment wildlife habitat and impact the cultural landscape while flaring of oil and gas wells results in air pollution and impacts the dark night skies Chaco and the Four Corners region currently boast. With a majority of BLM lands here already leased to industry, let's tell the BLM and State leaders – NO MORE!
We, the undersigned, support enhanced protection of the Greater Chaco Landscape. During its plan amendment process, the Farmington BLM Field Office should ensure BLM lands surrounding Chaco Canyon are sufficiently protected from the impacts of oil and gas or other development either through managing for lands with wilderness characteristics and/or designation of Special Management Areas to protect Chaco's unique cultural and natural resources. Furthermore, we call on Congress to introduce and pass legislation to permanently protect the Greater Chaco Region as soon as possible. Legislation should include a permanent mineral withdrawal of BLM lands to prevent future oil and gas leasing in the area
The Greater Chaco Landscape is an asset to native culture, science, New Mexico, and all Americans. Administrative land protections and special management will ensure the cultural and natural heritage of the Chaco area are not further degraded by development.

Looking for the most comfortable pillow in the UK ? The wide range and different types of pillow can be bewildering to the uninitiated pillow buyer. It can be difficult to know which type of pillow to buy; which best suits the way I sleep? Which pillows get the best reviews? Should I be thinking of a pillow which offers support or is most comfortable ?
We've found that unsurprisingly, most people are put off by the high price or unusual materials of some of the more special pillows such as memory foam or latex and tend to settle for a standard pillow both in size and filling.
But which pillows are people most satisfied with? Which pillows get the best reviews and ratings? In order to find out which pillows get the best scores, we've compiled the average review scores of hundreds of pillows, each reviewed by many people.
What we have found:
- Interestingly, there doesn't seem to be a direct correlation between price and pillow satisfaction; standard feather, down or hollowfibre pillows get better reviews than memory foam, and tend to be cheaper.
- The improvement in user satisfaction between a £30 pillow and a £100 pillow is negligible and could possibly be explained by reviewers who are keen to justify the expense.
- There is a strong link between cheap pillows and poor reviews; don't be tempted by very low prices, expect to pay about £12 as a minimum for a good polyester fibre pillow, £30 for a memory foam pillow, and £40+ for a good down pillow.
- All of the main pillow types and materials received good reviews and were rated highly, it is only individual poor examples which did badly and these can be found across all pillow types.
So, the big test, which types of pillow are people most happy with? Here are the pillow ratings by type (in descending order):
1. Down pillows
2. Latex pillows
3. Hollowfibre / Microfibre / Polyester pillows
4. Water pillows
5. Feather pillows
6. Microbead pillows
7. Memory Foam pillows
Yes, down pillows take the top spot, with memory foam pillows bringing up the rear. Again, it's worth pointing out that overall, all of these pillow types received good reviews, just that some types did even better than others.
To be honest, this didn't surprise us much, we've got a soft spot for down pillows, take a look at our top 10 best pillows and you'll notice a fair few in the top 10 list.

First up was a colour challenge inspired by my new favourite papers Bali Breeze - Rose Red, Old Olive, Tempting Turquoise & Pumpkin Pie. Above I have covered some Stampin' Store containers with the gorgeous new double sided papers.
I thought I'd also make a card for the colour challenge & above is my sample using a new stampset Live Your Dream. How do you like the ribbon? It is the new 1" Double-Stitched Rose Red Grosgrain Ribbon & is just gorgeous. It also comes in Chocolate Chip & I have a feeling you will be seeing alot more of it in the future (I've almost used up my preorder roll already)
Next challenge was to make a scrapbook page using a card sketch from Beate Johns. Above is a 6x6 page, once again using the new Bali Breeze papers & if you look in the bottom right hand corner you will see another new product - Flower Fusion felt flowers, they are lots of fun!
The above page uses the same sketch, however it is 12x12. I have used Live Your Dream stampset again & this time teamed it with the co-ordinating Afternoon Tea Double Sided Papers. The beautiful big scallop circle is another new product - Carousel Note.
I hope you enjoyed looking at my cyberstamp efforts, along with abit of a sneak peak at some of the new products that will be in the Summer Mini - available from 1st December 2008.

Rydal grandmother becomes black belt
Posted: January 21, 2019
Being promoted to a first degree black belt at 69, Annie Carter is proof that age is just a number. For the past three years, the Rydal resident has trained at Choi Kwang Do Martial Art in Cartersville, trying to earn a black belt by her 70th birthday.
"It started with me taking my grandchildren to do martial arts, and I'm sitting there and I'm watching them," Carter said. "Then that April they had a special for parents. If your children are in there, you can take it for a month to see how you like it. Well, I started taking it and I was hooked. I think that was in either 2008 or 2009 and I've been going two or three times a week ever since. [In the past] I've joined health clubs and all these exercise places and you pay for a year and I go two or three months and then I don't feel like going. But this is fun.
"I feel like I'm accomplishing something. I didn't even realize it at the time but through the martial arts, through Choi Kwang Do, I've got my blood pressure under control. My diabetes is under control and in the past three years I've lost 44 pounds. So healthwise it has been very effective for me. Before I had problems with my back and thank God, I haven't had an episode since I've been going. And mentally, it keeps me alert. I'm just having fun right now with it."
Carter was promoted to black belt -- the 10th color belt in Choi Kwang Do -- last month, after being tested for about four hours on various martial arts components, such as performing patterns, speed drills and kicks. As the oldest participant at the Cartersville dojo, which trains about 80 people starting at age 3, she is an inspiration to many of her fellow students and family members.
"She has worked hard," said Michael Wilson, co-owner of Choi Kwang Do in Cartersville. "Like with any martial arts program or any type of activity period, you see a lot of people come and a lot of people go because most people are seeking instant gratification these days. So she really amazes me, especially at her age that she came in and she set her goal and there was no stopping her. Any obstacle that got in her way, she found a way to get around it -- financial, physically, things she suffered with as far as blood pressure and diabetes. Anything that was thrown at her, she found a way around it.
"When you get over 50, it's very, very important, actually quite crucial, that you have some type of physical activity to keep your body in check and functioning properly. So a lot of people, when they get to that age, they have this mindset that they can't any longer do anything because they're too old or that's for the young kids or whatever. So I think she really speaks a testament to the fact that not only can age not be a limitation, but it can be something that you can use to your advantage and then to also motivate other people in the same age bracket as yourself."
Echoing Wilson's comments, Carter said she encourages senior adults to maintain a healthy lifestyle and enjoy tackling new experiences.
"I would tell them to try [Choi Kwang Do] because you're not forced to do anything. You do it as you're able to do things. You build up your stamina as your body gets stronger. You don't feel like you're pushed to do anything. We don't have any competition. Your competition is you. You do things as you're able to do them. I know when I first started, I could barely pick up my foot off of the floor to kick. Now I can kick up to here," Carter said, pointing to her shoulder. "So it's made a big difference. I'm more agile now. I get around better. I don't have problems with my knees and ankles and back.
"I don't feel 69. And my goal was to get my black belt before I was 70, and I'll be 70 in July so I accomplished my goal [and that] makes me feel wonderful. [So] I want to say to the seniors -- get off the couch. Do this for you. You'll feel better. You'll look better. It will open up your mind. ... [I would encourage] just living [a more active] life in general, getting out of the house."
With three generations of her family training at the Cartersville dojo, she joins her son, Johnathan Carter, and grandchildren, Johnathan G., Nia and Jahsiah. Along with Carter, all of her participating relatives are black belts, except for Nia, who will receive hers in June. Each week, Carter takes four classes at Choi Kwang Do Martial Art and helps instruct three of the children's offerings.
"It is so fun for me because I'm not the best learner in the world and my grandchildren are my coaches," Carter said. "So they coach me. And they have helped me get to where I am now because when I'm doing one of my moves, they'll say, 'No grandma, it's a rear dynamic not a front dynamic.' ... My grandchildren are my inspiration. It's fun. This is my time with my grandkids."
For Wilson, the Carters are a guiding light in the areas of physical fitness and spending time together.
"She's really setting the example for the seniors in our area and I wish that more people would take her lead and help themselves toward a more healthy, productive lifestyle," Wilson said. "Also, as far as from a family standpoint, they're really setting the bar. The Carter family -- they have three generations training at Choi Kwang Do. Her being, of course, the eldest and then going down to her grandson Jahsiah, who is just [10] years old.
"So a broad spectrum of ages and then a broad spectrum of benefits as well. The younger guys are learning discipline. They're learning focus, goal setting, while her goals are a little bit different as far as what she's taking from Choi Kwang Do. Hers are more of a healthy lifestyle, physical fitness, activity, those types of things."

Simple, Delicious Uses for Broccoli Stemsposted by Andrea | 07/28/2011
Are you one of THOSE people who only cut off the flowery tops of broccoli and then toss the rest?
Growing up, we were NEVER allowed to waste food — especially if it came from my dad's garden. And even though I would agree that broccoli florets are more appealing, there is really no reason why you should waste the stems…
Here are a few simple uses for broccoli stems::
1. Cut them up and eat them with the rest of your broccoli. After all, that's how they come if you buy frozen broccoli. If the stems seem a bit tough, you can peel off the outer "skin" with a vegetable peeler and your family will never notice.
2. Cut your broccoli florrets leaving long stems — it will look really fancy!
3. Make broco-slaw by shredding the stems. I make this recipe — but instead of 4 c. broccoli florets, I use 2 c. florets and 2 c. shredded broccoli stems.
4. Blanch chopped stems in boiling water for 5 minutes and then freeze them. You can use them for broccoli-cheese soup this fall. Check out this handy freezing chart for helpful tips on how to freeze a variety of vegetables.
5. Compost them — if you don't want to try any of my ideas, then at least toss them into a compost bin so they aren't a total waste!
Broccoli season is just weeks away {at least it is here in Michigan} and I personally can't wait to start eatting lots and lots of this delicious vegetable… stems and all!
Do you have any creative ways to utilize broccoli stems?

Seriously? The stems are inferior? They are the coveted pieces in this house! 🙂
Love your ideas! I must say, I take broccoli stems, the tops of peppers, carrot tops, pea pods, etc. ANY thing that you would normally throw in the garbage as far as veggie parts go, and I pop them in a bag in the freezer. When the bag is full, I put al of the "parts" in a gallon of water in a stock pot and make some darn yummy veggie stock! 🙂 Enjoy!
I love the idea of using a peeler on them, never thought of that! I almost always buy it frozen so the main stalk is gone by then. When I buy the pieces that come with lots of stalk, I just eat it right along with the florets. Do you have a broccoli cheese soup recipe you love? I love it at TGIFridays but have never found one to make at home that is that creamy.
Peel the stalks with a vegetable peeler to make flat strips. Use in stir fries or asian themed salads, they are an excellent stand in for bamboo shoots!
I read this somewhere the other day (a NY Times article, I think), and saved it for when broccoli is in season!
"A much better way to treat broccoli stalks: cut off and discard the tough outer peel, shave what remains into ribbons with a vegetable peeler, scatter with lemon zest and shards of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese: all the pleasure of raw artichoke salad with half the work."

Trucking Challenges:
How To Lower Your Owner-Operator Expenses
If you've been an owner-operator for any amount of time, you discovered that there are a ton of expenses that come with being an owner-operator, and they all pull a portion out of your gross income. The most successful owner-operators have learned how to strategically reduce their expenses to the bare essentials. Below are some tips to give you a better understanding of the type of expenses that come with being an owner-operator, and what drivers can do to lower those expenses.
Typical Owner-Operator Expenses
The cost of owner-operator trucking can be broken down into 7 main areas of expenditure:
- Fuel costs
- Truck costs
- Insurance
- Food and drink
- Cost of finding loads
- Licenses (along with permits, emissions, and tolls) EZpass or BestPass.com can help reduce costs
- Lodging (clclodging.com offers discounts for truckers)
What's the cost of being an Owner-Operator?
Every owner-operator will have their own unique expense sheet at the end of the year, and this all depends on how they run their operation. However, there are some fundamentals to these expenses that all aspiring owner-operators should keep in mind.
- Fuel is easily the highest of all costs, with the average owner-operator spending between $50,000 to $70,000 per year on fuel.
- Truck costs are the second-biggest expense. They include the cost of the truck as well as maintenance and tires.
- Insurance on one truck tends to cost between $5,000 and $10,000 per year, and there aren't any caps on insurance costs, as the rates can go up quickly depending on the custom coverage that you're looking for.
- Food is surprisingly also one of an owner-operator's biggest expenses, and can quickly add up if not kept in check.
- The cost of finding loads is not the first expense that comes to mind, but it is significant since it can cost a percentage of income from the load paid to a broker (usually between 10-20%).
- Licenses, permits, emissions and tolls will depend largely on the state or region you're driving through.
- Lodging can certainly be a significant expense if you find yourself often sleeping overnight in places other than your truck's cab.
Your Owner-Operator Budget
When creating your owner-operator budget, it's important to maintain good fundamentals of general budget making, such as;
- Creating an account of your own personal spending style (Understanding how you'll have to alter it in order to reach your financial goal)
- An assessment of current balances for your accounts (A list of your sources of income as well as your fixed and variable expenses)
- A plan to achieve your financial goals.
Then, you'll have to figure out a budget in relation to the general expenses that come with being an operator, which we went over above.
Reducing Owner-Operator Expenses
When budgeting, always account for the slow times that will inevitably affect your operation down the line. Be aware of your costs of living and keep your budget in mind throughout every transaction. Not staying true to your budget can lead to the depletion of your finances, which can result in a spike in your expenses.
Additionally, searching out carriers who serve industries of growth and building long-term relationships with them can lead to consistency and stability, which means that your truck has a lower chance of just collecting dust in its parking spot and costing you money. Consider acquiring a team of accounting, legal and business advisers. This may seem costly at first, but their services can end up saving you a considerable sum of money in the long run. Of course, it's great to keep the work in-house when possible, but professionally outsourcing certain tasks can sometimes be the smarter option.
We hope this helps you in understanding the challenges of being an owner-operator, while encouraging you to have a well thought out plan so you are ready to handle any obstacles when they come.

I found Oak Room Restaurant & Bar through Chope, which is my favourite restaurant booking site. The restaurant is located a short walk from Novena MRT Station, in a hotel so entrenched in 80s decor that I felt like I was caught in a time warp. The decor of the restaurant (thankfully) was in total contrast to the feel of the hotel, as its modern interior belied its cuisine.
Oak Room set up shop on 18 May 2016 and is opened for business from Monday to Saturday. Executive Chef Darrence and Sous Chef Bong have put together a comprehensive menu specialising in seafood and charcoal-grilled dishes.
Jamon Serrano ($28). 18 months aged Jamon Serrano on toast, which was crunchy and reminded me of biscotti. I loved cured meat, and this was first-rate! The taste was rich, and aroma was intense.
Mushroom Soup ($10). The soup was smooth and creamy, but I found $10 to be a tad expensive for the portion.
Main Course
Grilled Spring Chicken, served with re-cured Parma ham. This did not come with a price as it was not on the menu, but a Chef's Special, which he usually serves as one of the eight courses at The Chef's Table.
From The Charcoal Grill
UK Kurobuta Pork Chop ($30), served with bacon sauce, apple chutney and Parmesan mash. Pork would have never been a choice for me if there is chicken, beef or pasta on the menu. However, I enjoyed everything about this dish, except for the mash, which was kind of tasteless.
Prime USDA ($45), the highlight of the meal for me. 365 days grain fed 28 days dry aged 250g rib eye, served with Parmesan mash, baby spinach and natural jus. Beautifully cut and perfect doneness. I wished I had more space in my stomach for this.
If you have a bigger craving, go for the Prime USDA Tomahawk ($228), which weighs about 1.5kg.
Dessert Platter (from left):
- Sticky Medjool Date Pudding (served warm)
- Tiramisu
- Crème brûlée, served with passionfruit pulp and coulis
All three desserts were delicious. If you have the full portion, the sticky date pudding would come with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.

Steps taken on the affordable housing front – corporate tax holiday (subject to MAT) and service tax exemption - are a welcome move and will provide some impetus to the affordable housing sector. However these advantages will be limited to the projects which confirm to the strict definition of an 'affordable housing' project, which in our view needs to be more flexible and city specific.
Further, we welcome the move for additional deduction to first home buyers availing home loans. However, limiting this additional exemption for housing loans up to Rs. 35 lakhs and housing units costing Rs 50 lakhs needs to be examined in the light of actual home prices across cities – which are much higher than the limits stipulated. A higher limit for home price and the loan amount would have benefited a large number of end customers.
The move to provide a special exemption on Dividend Distribution Tax (DDT) to SPVs distributing dividends to REITs and INVITs will help rationalize the tax regime for such funds. We do hope that the government keeps engaging actively, as it has, with various participants in this sector. A conducive environment for REITs and INVITs will significantly help attract long term capital to the country.
On the Private Equity and Venture Capital front, the Government has provided an impetus to start-ups by giving a tax holiday for a limited duration. This would help facilitate their growth in the initial phase of their business.
Finally, from the perspective of attracting long term capital to the country, the Government should focus on clear definitions and provisions on taxation of foreign capital and ease of business.

Who we cater for
We provide services for a wide variety of events and occasions, they include:
About Our Services
At Prestige we like to do things a little differently. Spectacular bars, sumptuous food, friendly staff. We like to think that we do things for our clients as we would want it done for us. No fuss, easy, understated quality.
Our standards are high and our expectations are higher!
With regards to our food, our meat is always fresh, not frozen and is produced by Suffolk farms and prepared for us by local butchers. We do not use cheap frozen imported meat.
We offer a wide range of food styles ranging from traditional 3 or 4 course 'sit downs', slightly more informal rotisserie chickens (or other meats cooked on the spit), 3 meat carveries, hog roasts, big pan paella (chicken and chorizo or sea food), classic beef wellington or perhaps some steaks, free range Suffolk chicken and farm produced Suffolk sausages or home made chicken and chorizo burgers etc on a bbq!
Or perhaps a even 'festival style' menu with a selection of the above at the same time!
We have menus to show you and yes we have set packages to offer you but what we really like is to talk to you, find out what you want then put together a proposal and follow it up by a very informal food taster. If you have your own ideas for a menu – we'd like to her them. We'll always be pleased to try something new and as long as it's going to be feasible for the chefs and their team to produce in the facilities available 'on the day' then we say -Go For It!
There are various menus enclosed but – they are only our suggestions! They are there to be used as they are or as a basis and for you to mix and match, alter and generally produce your own bespoke menu. We will help and advise along the way so that together we come up with exactly what you want.
A quick email or phone call is all we need to prepare an initial menu and quotation. We listen and we talk. In that order and in the proportion of the equipment that God gave us!
We will also be pleased to organize your reception drinks, table wines and toasts etc. You will have enough to do on the day without worrying about how much wine you need or is there ice for the Pimms etc!
Prestige – a complete catering service from ONE supplier.
What We Do
Based in Ipswich, the team of experienced professionals here at Prestige are on hand to assist you in whatever event you are planning. From the very early stages we will listen to you, advise you and offer ideas on menus, drinks, wines and the general running of the event.
We will meet with you – at your home, the venue or our offices, wherever is best for you – and discuss whatever you have in mind. We'll then prepare a detailed quotation for you to discuss with your family or colleagues etc then ask for your comments and adapt our quotation to suit. This will carry on until you are 100% happy with what we are going to offer 'on the day'.
If you wish we'll meet with your suppliers and work easily with them as a team. If requested we know and have worked with many different people at lots of different companies with hosts of different skills and so are very well placed to recommend various venues and suppliers, many of which are listed on our 'Friends' page here on this web site.
But the biggest part of what we do is – we work for you!
Glemham Hall
When we started out on this journey nearly 10 years ago, we were just a bar company – a very good bar company – who did an occasional hog roast on the side! Now, we have a fully skilled catering team led by our full-time Head Chef and ably assisted by our select group of part time chefs with wide, varied and invaluable experience gathered over the years.
Our catering has expanded continuously over the years and now includes 2, 3 and 4 course traditional dining, wood fired bbqs, rotisseries of all kinds (including racks of 40 chickens cooking at once), hog roasts, canapés of all colours, shapes and sizes, big pan paellas, 'street food' selections, plus hot and cold buffets of all descriptions. Oh – and desserts to die for!
We've come quite a distance in a few short years and there's definitely more to come yet!
What's Your Event?
We provide services for events from weddings and corporate events to festivals and private parties, you name it we can do it. Whether you have something planned for 50 people or 10,000 people, we cover it.
We regularly provide bars at large events around the country where we either have one or two large bars up to 100 ft long or multiple smaller bars dotted around the event.

Did you feel it in the air on Friday the 13th?
In the latest of a long line of delay tactics, Rob Gray is doing what he has always done before when he gets caught, file for bankruptcy. This will be the first of many bankruptcies now that his fraud is exposed and is in court. He cannot file for personal bankruptcy until the 7 years is up from his last one in December of 2006.
This will blow up in Rob's face because you cannot declare bankruptcy over fraud. Especially since the Mulligan Mint Inc. did not even legally exist until 7/1/2013, only 2 months ago! As far as I know, all of the creditors that loaned Rob money through the fictional entity known as the Mulligan Mint was prior to 7/1/2013.
The one good thing is that it is finally showing what I have suspected all along, there is a long trial of bodies in this mess.
We already know they stole $1,400,000 from Republic Metals and I am sure their lawyers are going to have a field day with this latest delay tactic.
The next one is very interesting because it looks like from this filing that he took $650,000 from Lakota Oyate. I know the Free Lakota Bank is Rob Gray's "personal piggy bank" that he "loaned" money to himself to fund his business and life, I don't know if this money was loaned to Rob or if this is what was stolen from the depositors of the Free Lakota Bank. I am sure now that the cat is out of the bag officially, perhaps we will get some real information out of what is really going on at the Free Lakota Bank.
The next two individuals on the list are the ones that I feel the worst for since they are the ones that trusted the Gray's the most. Phil Pozderac and Steven Berryman were two employees that I had met in my two trips down to the mint. They were very hard working and passionate people that not only worked many long hours building that mint but apparently gave the Gray Brothers $485,000 and $125,412 of their own personal money. I am sure that this money was a significant portion of their life savings that was scooped up in this grand fraud. While these men worked long hours for that money and many more hours building the mint, Rob Gray flew around the world and bought mansions with their money.
I do not feel sorry for American Express and their $245,000 loss. They were warned.

America 1999
SS America
Documentation & Preservation Projects
Construction Trip
High winds and strong current challenged the twelve men and three boats that made up this year's
SS America
construction team. From September 9-12, divers worked in 38-degree water to hang pipes and stabilize walls in the galley and salon areas. They also reassembled the chief engineer's bed and cleaned silt out of the galley and stewards quarters.
According to Ken Merryman, "the work was slow, but we made progress even though the weather didn't cooperate." Divers used both service-supplied air and conventional scuba. The construction team consisted of Ken Merryman, Bob Olson, Steve Daniel, Tom Brueshaber, Dave Schmidt, Ken Knutson, Stan Braun, Paul Cording, Ron Johnson, Bob Nelson, Al Brown, and Brian Nylander.
This year, they decided to try a new system where divers divided up into two-person work teams and were assigned a specific project. Each team worked on the same project until it was completed. This allowed for improved work efficiency and reduced miscommunication caused by too many divers working on the same task. This arrangement also improved diver safety, as each person was working with same buddy for the entire time.
Some of the artifacts that were discovered included a gold men's ring with green stone, an aftershave bottle, and a metal cigar box with the brand name Between Acts: The Little Cigar. These artifacts will be preserved by the park service and put in the new America display case at the Windigo Visitor Center.
Documentation Trip
Most of the work during this year's trip was concentrated in the galley and boiler room. Measurements and sketches were produced for documentation of the current condition, so that future stabilization projects can be planned. These measurements and sketches will be transferred to a line drawing later in the year.
The trip was from 12-15 August. GLSPS team members included Ken Merryman, Tim Tamlyn, Malinda Tamlyn, Steve Daniel, Stan Braun, and Frank Cantelas from
East Carolina University
. Frank is a professional underwater archeologist with the school and will help draw the layout of the galley.
Due to the depth, darkness, and chance of silting out the galley extra safety precautions were taken. For example, an egress rope was hung along the galley ceiling and an extra tank with regulator was placed near the stairs. The team also used fluorescent lights on extension cords with good success (even though one started to leak). This allowed them to see their work without having to rely just on dive lights.

Do you know what a cumulative frequency histogram is, or Euclidean geometry? How about etymological knowledge or nominalisation? No, me neither!
It is 35 years since I left school, so trying to help my 9 and 11 year old sons with their homework often results in frustration – for me, not them!
But that is not going to happen this term! I have just discovered a brilliant app that I'm hoping will make all the difference at homework time.
The School A to Z website has been around for a few years, but I didn't realise there is also a corresponding app. School A to Z is from the New South Wales Department of Education, but if you have kids at school it will be useful regardless of where you live.
Within the English, Maths and Technology sections you'll find A to Z listings of terms which, when you select one, displays an explanation, graphical examples of how it is used, and links to videos, fact sheets and more information on that particular topic.
There are two sections just for your kids - The Spelling Bee is where they can practice spelling at an easy, medium or hard level or create their own list of words. Maths Monkey is for practicing times tables.
Assignments is where you'll find the themes that are currently in the NSW curriculum. Within each topic there are facts, videos, links to fact sheets and web sites where your child can find more information – perfect for projects.
If you have ever screamed in frustration at the discovery of a project that's due the next day, or tried to figure out how they teach maths these days, this app is for you. If you haven't already, take a look at the website too http://www.schoolatoz.nsw.edu.au/
Get the app from the Apple App Store and from Google Play.

The official website sikkim.gov.in of the Government of Sikkim that is being maintained by Department of Information Technology can be browsed for details on the various organs of the government.
Like any other state of the Indian Union, Sikkim has a Chief Minister, Council of Ministers and MLAs chosen through the electoral process. The Chief Minister and the Council of Ministers are in charge of various Departments. Some of the Departments and a few of the Government Undertakings have the ruling party MLAs appointed as their Chairpersons. The bureaucracy in the State is headed by the Chief Secretary. Each Department or a group of them is put in charge of a Secretary or Commissioner who is usually an Indian Administrative Service Officer.
The various Departments in the Government of Sikkim are
Animal Husbandry,Livestock,Fisheries & Veterinary Services Department (earlier Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services Department)
- CM Secretariat ( earlier Chief Ministers Office)
- Commerce & Industries Department (earlier Industries Department)

Gandhi's famous Dictum: Be The Change You Want to See in The World
From a quantum perspective that's really it. Be the change you want to see in the world. Dr Quantum's Blog has spent a lot of time pointing to the dark side; of humanity's flawed persona and twisted psyche. Well we have a confession to make. All that negative projection we have been spewing forth is just that – a projection. Because you see . . .that's all the identification with negativity can ever be because that's not who we are. Follow? In the word's of Neale Donald Walsch's God . . .in order to experience that which you are you must experience that which you are not. I got dem 'ol cosmic blues again for sure. Ganhdi's famous Dictum is really the answer. Be the change. And sometimes, right before you make the jump into the hyper-space of change, it helps to take a good hard look in the mirror and see the ugly you. Scary stuff to be sure. The results . . . are amazing.
Be the change . . .It's so easy to say, and it's the greatest adventure you can go on – the adventure of self-transformation. Some would say it is a spiritual journey. Some would say hey . . .just focus on the what-is of your life. Fair enough. Maybe even a bit of both. One of Australia's most interesting futurists Peter Ellyard, suggests in his book Ideas for The New Millennium that in terms of environmental and ecological transformative values we have the hard stuff of the built environment and we have the soft stuff of the personal journey – things like beliefs, visions and values. And as Ellyard and many others will attest, the soft stuff is really the hard stuff.
So if you want to save the world and you sense that who you are being is not the change you want to see in the world . . . then change. Easy huh? The problem is that we humans tend to have our blind spots. It's not always easy to see who you are being. Hence they have all kinds of schools and techniques and motivational oscillators to help you shake your booty. It may therefore be useful to engage with some kind of transformative process. Which one? Good question. The answer is so simple and profound it will amaze you. The answer is: The process that works for you. As the advertising would have informed you already – Just Do It! Oh you want some ideas huh! You can see some of my favorites below. OK let's see . . . and remember Gandhi's famous dictum: Be the change you want to see in the world.

Babolat and Li Ning did a wonderful job bringing together the Colombian Davis Cup as they host the USA at the World Group Play-offs this weekend in Bogota. Santiago Giraldo defeated Sam Querrey 6-2, 6-4, 7-5, in the second rubber and is now serving at 6-5 in the fifth set against Mardy Fish. (The Americans are up 2-1, so Giraldo needs a win to give Colombia a chance to advance.)

Gary Johnson:"Eliminate the IRS": Reform the Federal Government to Reform the Tax Code
I love Gary Johnson's idea of cutting the Federal Government by 43% not because I'm a pardon the term, a Cheap Bastard who wants to throw poor people on the street and Senior Citizens out of Senior Citizen Homes. But to reform our Federal Government in a way to make it as effective as possible, which by itself would bring the costs of the Federal Government down. Because they wouldn't be doing as much, and the Welfare State is a great place to start when it comes to Government Reform. But we also need to cut back our Defense Budget not to make us weaker but so we have less responsibility and demand that these Developed Nations play the lead role in their own National Security. As well as Agriculture Welfare and Corporate Welfare, we shouldn't be subsidizing at Tax Payer expense company's and individuals for doing well. But tax them at a rate that encourages them to do well in the future, big difference. What I would like to do is reform our Federal Government in a way that its doing much less in the future without hurting anyone who depends on these Public Services in the future. But do it in a way that makes these Public Services more Cost Effective as well as more efficient in the future. But having others play a bigger role in providing these Public Services and bring down the costs of them in the future. Which keeps taxes down on everyone in the future and makes these Public Services more beneficial for everyone who depends on them now and into the future. And then reforming our Tax Code in the short term and long term. In the short term to help bring down our debt and deficit and in the long term after the Federal Government is reformed, to provide the necessary Tax Revenue to fund the new and improved pardon the expression, Federal Government. A Tax System that based on consumption and paying for the Public Services that people consume, rather then taxing people by what they make which discourages making and investing money.
When it comes to Government Reform, to start with defense cut the Defense Budget by 200B$ a year which might sound real high. But in a Defense Budget of 700B$, is very doable, do this by ending the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and have NATO and the Arab League play a bigger role in developing these nations. I was for the No Fly Zone in Libya from the beginning but with President Obama's latest position on the War Powers Act, where he essentially believes he doesn't need approval from anyone to commit American Troops. Its time that we wrap up that operation and let NATO take over completely. And with out other troops oversees, bring them home and demand that these Developed Nations play a bigger role in their own National Security. Europe, Saudi Arabia, Japan and Korea and transform NATO into the European Defense Alliance or something that would work with us, Canada, Scandinavia, the Slavic Republics, Turkey in partnership but that where Europe defends Europe not America And everyone else defends themselves.
And then get the Welfare State off of the Federal and State Budgets all together and convert them into Semi Private Non Profit Community Services for the Less Fortunate. That would all be Self Financed and run independently and regulated to the extent that they would have to serve anyone eligible who applies.
As far as Tax Reform, I would eliminate all Tax Loopholes including Corporate Welfare in the short term and then lower Tax Rates. To help bring down the debt and deficit but in the long term, I would throw out the Tax Code and replace it with a combination of Payroll Taxes and Consumption Taxes. A Payroll Tax to fund the new Defense Department and then force the Defense Department to live within the National Security Tax and not be able to collect from other revenue. Thats one example, Tax Reform really should be another blog but another example would be a Border Fee to enter or exit America to fund the Border Patrol. And then Consumption Taxes that would cover everything with Low Income people still being able to receive the Earned Income Tax Credit. And make it progressive as well, more expensive goods would be taxed higher the cheaper goods. Luxury Cars taxed higher then grocery's to use as an example.
The idea of tax Reform is great if its done correctly and doesn't result in a net Tax Increase especially in this bad economy. But Tax Reform doesn't make much sense without Government Reform to make the Federal Government as Cost Effective and as efficient as possible. And then you can figure out how much revenue you need to fund the new government.

The shows will be on Thursday and Friday, Oct. 6 and 7 for two shows each night. Currington, with 10 Top 10 hits and 7 number 1s, will play the first night. "I'm honored to be invited back to the CMA Songwriters Series, especially on such a big night as the grand re-opening of Joe's Pub," said Currington.
Thompson, who had a semi-hit with Beer on the Table," will play the second night. "Songwriting is what brought me to Nashville...I eat, sleep and breathe it," said Thompson. "So, to be asked to be a part of this is both extremely humbling and a huge honor for me."
Performing both nights will be Scotty Emerick (I Love This Bar, Good As I Once Was and I'm Just Talking About Tonight, all recorded by Toby Keith); David Lee Murphy (Dust On the Bottle recorded by Murphy, Live a Little recorded by Kenny Chesney and Big Green Tractor, recorded by Jason Aldean); and the evening's host, Bob DiPiero (Southern Voice, recorded by Tim McGraw, Blue Clear Sky, recorded by George Strait and You Can't Take the Honky Tonk Out of the Girl, recorded by Brooks & Dunn).
"We're thrilled to be reopening our doors with the help of the October CMA Songwriters Series," says Kevin Abbott, Managing Director of Joe's Pub. "Our newly renovated, fully-seated room offers the very best in comfort, sound, and service to both our performers as well as our patrons, and it's a privilege to host such an amazing series in our first week open to the public."
Tickets for the Oct. 6 CMA Songwriters Series at Joe's Pub are $40 for VIP seating and $30 for reserved and tickets for the Oct. 7 CMA Songwriters Series at Joe's Pub are $30 for reserved seating. Both shows will go on sale Thursday, Aug. 18 at 2 p.m. Eastern.
