The gateway to Kauai, Lihue is home to the island's airport, cruise ship terminals, major businesses, and government offices. Here, culture fans can enjoy the artwork and historical artifacts at the Kauai Museum. The white sands of Kalapaki Beach attract locals and tourists alike. The area's lush habitat is immortalized in the opening scenes of Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark.

I particularly enjoyed the quiet neighborhood atmosphere in the green with a view of the green mountains nearby.

Not a big resort which is what we wanted. It was a great price with wonderful staff. The grounds are well kept and beautiful. Loved having coffee every morning with a great view of the mountains.

"Nice place, oldest hotel on the island"
Hotel was lovely. Nice, spacious room, very clean. It was hard to find, there was no sign on the main road and the hotel is off the beaten path.

This place isnt perfect but it suited me and was a reasonable Price. It has a nice mt outlook but if yr walking into town and back (about 20 mins) you have to go thru the industrial park and port area.

This hotel provided a clean room with a bed but was close to the shipyards and a huge recycling plant that were rather noisy.

"Great bidget stay"
This is a good alternative for those who don't need to be near the beach. You have to drive past the port to get there and it is located in a residential neighborhood so services such as shops and restaurants are a drive (or 1 mile walk) away. Rooms are clean and comfortable. We opted for the patio room which was nice to have for sitting outside after […] touring. The view of the mountains from the patio was beautiful. Breakfast was fresh fruit and Costco muffins and other toastables. Lots of coffee all day. Since most of our time was spent driving to other places, this was perfect. There was some noise from the neighboring room late in the evening and once we heard screeching tires outside at night but in general it was pretty quiet.

This is an OK 2-story motel -- cheap as the area's hotels go, but not up to LaQuinta or Holiday Inn standards. The pool shown is a kiddy pool, not well maintained.

"Perfect for some...."
This hotel may not be for everyone. If you are looking for a nice "resorty" type vacation then you do not want to stay here. For my husband and I the hotel worked nicely due to its central location and affordability. It was clean but not spotless, well kept but not amazing, and perfect for people that don't plan to spend long hours in their hotel room. […] The continental breakfast was a huge bonus because it helped save some money. And it was located close enough to lihue to find a quick place to eat, drive east or west and be there in a relatively short amount of time. We probably would not stay here again just because if we came back we want to try out different towns but if you need a cheap, centrally located hotel that provides bfast than it is perfect.

"Great Place for a night or a long stay"
We have never stayed anywhere where the staff was so accommodating. All we had to do was ask and if they had what we needed it was ours for as long as we needed it free of charge. Even though they say they charge for late check out we were suprised at how lenient they were for us since our flight didn't leave until evening. Maybe it's because we stayed […] there for two weeks. The breakfast was great every morning. That's not something you see very often on Hawaii at any of the islands. The breads, fruits and bagels were fresh every day and even though the staff tells everyone when they check in that breakfast starts at 8:15AM, it was usually ready before then. The mountains behind the Kauai Inn made the perfect backdrop for the hotel. Our bed was one of the best we've ever slept on, even comparing it to ours at home. We didn't actually use the pool but it was clean and maintained every morning. I'm not sure when we will go to Kauai again but we will definitely stay here when we do.

Comment posted Argyll First celebrate unanimous decision to return power to full council by Grant MacDonald.
Jnr Tick,
A well crafted response but wasted on IslayForever who appears to be a reincarnation of Kintyre1 with roots in Esher and naive political ambitions.
Recent comments by Grant MacDonald
- Scottish Government forced to intervene on loose-mouthed Russell gaffe in Campbeltown
Never suspected I'd write this but, in fairness to Mr Russell, even 20 minutes on a boat is better than 2 minutes on a bus. A bus is simply transport whereas a boat is always an adventure.Of course, my caveat comes from the unpleasant passenger boats on the Dunoon run. When adventure feels like life threatening danger, it's not worth it. (And I'm a boat person and know these stupid boats are able to handle the crossing. Ideally, without paying customers.)
- An independent Scotland and the pound
Perhaps not entirely germane to the issue but worthy of a moments ponder regarding National Debt and the banking crisis. The recent report naming the culprits behind the Bank of Scotland disaster was interesting, especially if one views the CV of the folk involved. For some reason, every single one of them were from Halifax Building Society, tending to suggest the merger was actually a complete takeover as none of the senior management actually had bank experience!Makes me wonder who the RBS bloke who's been demonized was listening to?
- Struan Lodge closure proposal and costs confusion – have we not seen this before?
I notice Cowal Courier is run by an ex-News International employee. It makes me pause for thought for some reason but I do understand why Simon would cite it. - Margaret Thatcher dies
In the history of FA, I've rarely read so much tripe from usually sensible posters. "Rules of Engagement" equates to please unload your weapons and replace the missiles with blue practice loads. It was a war and the object is to win. Nothing else counts. As soon as someone stops talking and starts shooting, there is only one aim. To win.Secondly, had Maggie supported our coal industry in the 1980′s would it have survived against cheap imports which continue until this day?
The answer is obviously no.Our steel industry was paramount and should have been defended. After all, it wasn't the case cheaper steel was going to be available within 10 years. Except it was and by the time it happened, the UK steel industry was closed down with the people involved either re-skilled or in the trash bin as they would never have retrained.
The woman did a heck of a lot wrong but the big picture tends to suggest she'd only one thing in mind and that was our country's future.
Importantly, she never once mentioned Wind Farms as part of that future which is the sort of rubbish people will eventually write.
But she did view the big picture which is something not a single politician seems capable of doing at present, resulting in record low voting numbers. - Young Dunoon boy missing
Pity you didn't notice the fact Newsroom had updated their piece 2 hours and 19 minutes before your latest input of spiteful drivel.
Slimey strikes again…[Update 17,00:Found safe and well in Dunoon.]

"Hello, I'm Katie. I work with words."
Want to know more?
Recently, I've been thinking a lot about the freedoms that come with being freelance versus those that come with being employed. There's definitely a perception that being freelance involves being completely free (it is in the title after all) but in reality this isn't the case.
I've put together a guest post for The Freelance Lifestyle Blog that covers this very issue. The post went live this morning, so why not hop on over there and read it?
While you're there, make sure you take a look at what else The Freelance Lifestyle Blog has to offer. Blogger Emma Cossey shares regular advice for freelancers, and it's always a valuable read. (I thought her recent tips on getting paid faster were particularly helpful).
Happy Friday!

It seems to me that it's so much easier to notice when we're not happy than when we are.
When we're bored or dissatisfied or sad or hungry it's usually painfully obvious to us. But when we're challenged or fulfilled or creative or productive or just plain happy… it isn't always. This might be because we expect the second lot of emotions to be our normal, but that still doesn't mean that we shouldn't show appreciation for them.
I think Kurt Vonnegut got it right when he penned this particular suggestion. Teaching ourselves to notice and appreciate when things are good sounds like a very valuable lesson.
Take today, for example. I'm spending the day working on my novel-in-progress, sitting across from a friend who's doing the same thing. We're encouraging each other to keep pushing on, and having regular breaks to keep up morale. And if this isn't nice I don't know what is.
Read MoreI don't know about you, but I find there is a permanently growing to-read pile on my bedside table. Just recently, I've been making an effort to read some of the books that have been languishing there for a long time. I've got through two of them so far, and it feels good to remove them from the pile and put them away on the bookshelf!
Here's what I've been reading over the past month;
The Spell Alan Hollinghurst
This book had been sat in the aforementioned 'to-read' pile for over a year! I took a deep breath and got started with it, and initially I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. Hollinghurst's prose is gorgeous, and I really liked that aspect of the book. As the story went on, however, I thought it became overly stereotypical, which put me off a bit.
Life After Life Kate Atkinson
Sometimes, a book is so good that you find yourself sneaking away from work in order to read it. This is one of those books. I loved both the concept of it and the execution: it was really fun to read what is essentially a wartime novel with a touch of time travel/magic realism thrown in. Out of the 22 books I've read so far this year, I'd say that this was a very high contender for my absolute favourite.
Ignorance Milan Kundera
This is the second book that I removed from my 'to-read' pile after a very long stint. It was a very quick read… and I'm not sure I have anything much better to say about it than that. I really liked the idea behind the novel, but for me it just didn't work. Perhaps it's a case of something being lost in translation?
Daughters-in-Law Joanna Trollope
I've never read a Joanna Trollope novel before, so when I saw this one as part of a three-for-two deal in a charity shop, I thought I'd give it a go. I actually really enjoyed it. It was an easy, engrossing family saga of a story, with some great pointers for me as a writer on switching perspective.
The Thirteenth Tale Diane Setterfield
When we went to visit my parents over the Bank Holiday weekend, I forgot to take a book. (I know. How?) To make up for it, I borrowed this from their book shelf. Again, this was an engrossing and enjoyable read. It involved a big house, a mysterious author and a spooky story. What's not to like?
Now I look at this last month's reading, it all seems a bit eclectic. The fact that I've just started Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse probably doesn't help matters, either!
What have you been reading recently?
Read MoreIf you've been keeping up with my novel progress update posts, you'll know that I finished a full draft of my novel-in-progress a couple of months ago. Since then, I've been working hard editing a hard copy of the whole manuscript. Or, as I prefer to call the process, scribbling all over it.
The novel is structured in five parts, and I've been working through them consecutively. The first part lulled me into a false sense of security; it was going to be much easier than I thought! The first part had already been edited thoroughly, as it was what I submitted for my MA dissertation. The changes that came up this time around were mainly related to details that had been changed later on in the story.
Parts two and three were not as well edited, but they were still better than I thought they were going to be. Most of the changes here were related to character motivations and little details. The general outline of what happened made sense, and I didn't feel as if any major structural changes needed to be made – I just needed to work with what was already there to make it better.
And then I got to part four. And then came the roadblock. Because, you see, it needs a lot of work.
Not only are there character motivations that need work and details that need to be polished… there are also whole chapters and minor characters that need to be cut. Almost every chapter needs big structural changes – and though I think I do know how to fix the problems, it's going to take a lot more time than the work on parts one-three will.
And I haven't even got to part five yet!
There is a moral here, of course. I have a well documented tendency to be wildly over-ambitious, and novel-writing is something that I have a well documented tendency to be wildly over-ambitious about. (I even suggested in this post that I might be able to finish another draft before our move in June. Ha!) Because the first part of this editing process went so smoothly, I'd convinced myself that I was much closer to the finishing line than I actually am.
The truth is that writing a novel is a very big commitment that takes a very long time. It will all be worth it in the end, and I need to keep positive and keep going… and stop imagining that I'm some sort of writing superhero who could get it all polished off in record time.

One of my goals for April was to take a daily walk with Mr M. We live near a pretty canal towpath (seen in the photo above!), and the lighter evenings have meant that we've had much more opportunity to get out on it. This particular goal was thoroughly successful, and I've even carried it through to May. This is one of those goals that I hope will build into a regular habit.
These daily walks have been brilliant for so many reasons. The boost of fresh air and exercise has been great, as has the screen-free conversation time with Mr M. The twenty minutes or so we spend walking each afternoon has quickly become the most valuable communication time we have all day – and it's where we've been making most of our plans for our upcoming move.
However, the absolute key reason why these daily walks have been so valuable to me is because they get me out of the flat. As a freelancer, it's so easy to stay in. I don't have to go out to work, which means that on days when I don't have any evening plans I don't have to go out at all. This is a bit of an embarrassing thing to admit on the internet(!) but over the winter I'd say that there were usually two or three weekdays each week that I just didn't bother leaving the flat.
My daily walks have boosted my energy levels, and given me a bit of perspective and variety. (And reminded me what the outside world looks like). The main result of this is that when I get home from a walk, I feel inspired to do something productive. I've spent much more time working on personal projects in the evenings, such as my novel-in-progress, and much less time sitting comatose on the sofa.
To summarise, talking a short walk after work each evening has boosted my energy levels, given me some quality chatting time with my husband, encouraged me to do more fun and productive things with my evenings and drastically reduced the amount of time I spend watching TV.
If that's not enough inspiration for a Wednesday, I'm not sure what is!

If you've been reading my blog over the last few months, you'll know that I've been making a regular effort to set work goals. After four months of these goals, I've started to see very clearly what is working for me about these goals, and what isn't.
Here we go;
It's great for reflecting time.
I think it's really beneficial to have a bit of time set aside at the beginning of each month to reflect on the past month's goals and set some for the month ahead. For me, this has been the perfect time to reflect on how my work is going generally, as well as to think about what are the most important things to me over the coming month. I feel that this practice is making me much more aware of what my aims are, and is helping me to keep my priorities clear in my mind.
Keeping it simple is good.
It would be really easy for me to set ten goals a month, but I don't think that would be a good idea! At the moment, I set three goals, and I think that's ideal for me. I also have a tendency to be very over-ambitious – so keeping it simple helps me to manage this.
Sometimes work goals and life goals overlap.
Some of the goals that I've set over the last couple of months have overlapped between work and life. For some people this might be a problem, but I've decided that it isn't for me. As a freelancer working from home, a lot of stuff that would traditionally be separated into work and life overlaps.
It's best to keep it varied.
I started the year with the intention to set three very similar goals each month. The idea was that I would set three 'big' overarching goals for the year, and that each month I would set myself three small goal that would help me work towards the three big ones. Well, that lasted about three months before I got bored with them. The three 'big' goals are still my main work priorities for the year, but sometimes there are more immediate things that take up my attention. Keeping goals varied means I can react to changes as they come up, and also that I can stay interested and engaged in the whole process.
Do you set yourself regular goals too? I'd love to hear about how it works for you!

Read MoreCreative thought is a big part of my life. The freelance writing work I do involves a lot of it, as does my ongoing work on my novel-in-progress. I love both of these creative outlets, but they do have a lot in common.
A) They both involve words.
B) They both take place primarily in front of a screen.
Over the last couple of months, I've been making an effort to explore other creative outlets. Instead of spending evenings in sat on the sofa with something on Netflix, I've been making things.
The main thing I've been working on is a crochet blanket (pictured above!). This is my very first crochet project, and I've been really enjoying how easily it keeps getting bigger. I'm working with small squares of bright, solid colour. So far I have around forty of them, and I'm aiming for a hundred.
Seeing something that I'm working on come together in such a 'real' way is a bit of a novelty for me. My writing work is obviously just as real but because it exists mainly behind a computer screen, it sometimes feels less tangible. In other words, adding a paragraph or a chapter to my novel doesn't always feel as satisfying as adding a finished crochet square to the pile.
Making things has had a lot of benefits;
It's encouraged me to be creative with my hands, not just my mind.
It's enabled me to spend my free time more productively (and you know how much I love feeling productive).
It's got me thinking more creatively in general, which has helped me to push ahead with my novel-in-progress.
And, perhaps most importantly of all, it's been really fun.
Have you been working on any creative projects outside of work recently? I'd love to hear what they are if so!

We purchased three of these storage cabinets because we obviously like them very well. The price is very reasonable for its value. They are attractive looking and they provide plenty of storage space. The shelves are adjustable so that you can store different items in each cabinet. We use these cabinets in our den, mostly to store canned goods, paper products and other dry goods. We also like the lock and key that comes in handy should you need to use it. We also purchased matching book shelves that are the same brand and color.It only took my husband 1 ½ hour to assemble each cabinet. We definitely recommend this storage cabinet to anyone who is looking for one.

Requires patience and two people. You must categorize all the hardware. The sale price was the right price. I would not pay full price for this unit. It also came with a couple of dents that obviously came from the factory. I would say they happened before the unit was packed, because the packing was very well done.

Nice Economy Cabinet
By Tom3
from San Diego, CA
We purchased this cabinet for my wife's art room, and it appears to be very suitable for this use. The cabinet looks Ok, and was easily assembled by myself. The felt pads make it easy to slide on our wood floors. The packaging and engineered assembly is impressive, but being made of presswood with photo paper simulated wood causes some doubt as to longevity. The flimsey back allows the cabinet to wrack, popping one door from the magnetic holder when tilted. Overall it is a good unit for the price.

I really like the size and style of this cabinet. I knew in my mind exactly what I wanted and I found it all in this unit. The only thing I don't like is the front doors don't meet together as shown in the picture. My husband put it together and says he doesn't see how it can be any better the way it has been constructed. Otherwise I am very happy with it.
Cabinet Review
By K

About Me Midrange Shopper
The cabinet is great with one exception. The back is the paper cardboard type material. The purpose of the cabinet is to secure some electronics and banking information. If someone truly wanted to remove the electronics, all they have to do is move the cabinet from the wall, remove the back and help themselves. But! for the money and the prayer that no one thinks like that, we have a good cabinet. Key is thin which makes me think it could break or bend out of use.

Enterprise GIS Support for Georgia Power Company
The Southern Company is one of the largest electric power utilities in the United States. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, the company consists of five separate power companies – Alabama Power, Georgia Power, Gulf Power, Mississippi Power, and Savannah Power & Light, in addition to numerous subsidiaries involved in related industries.
Southern GIS is an enterprise geospatial services group within the Southern Company and is tasked with providing geospatial assistance to all departments in the company. From 1999 through late 2000, I had the pleasure of working with this talented group on a variety of projects.
One such project was the creation of a Power Service Territories layer for the state of Georgia. Georgia's cities and counties are served by numerous municipal and rural electric cooperatives in addition to the extensive coverage provided by Georgia Power. The state's Public Service Commission approved these service areas and maintained the maps that laid them out.
These maps had been mylar-based up until 1999. With the increase in deregulated services provided in addition to the core business of electric power distribution, the need for easy access to the maps became critical. Georgia Power planned for the conversion of all of the mylar maps to a digital dataset.
The project involved scanning and digitizing information from around 159 individual maps (one for each of Georgia's counties).
Most of the mylar maps were larger than 30 inches wide and required a wide-body scanner to be handled. My University of Georgia friend, Jay Sellars, assisted with the scanning phase of this project. He handled most of the scanning and quality control for that part of the project.
Once scanned, all of the digital images had to be geographically registered. This involved comparing the images to vector road layers and selection of coincident points to setup the "warp," or image transformation.
After registration was complete, features had to be captured from each of the images. I did most of the digitizing in this phase, heads-up drawing polygons from each of the images into a statewide coverage (this was way before geodatabases).
Finally, all polygons were cleaned and checked for errors before being made available to other company employees.
This layer became one of the most requested datasets both inside and outside the company. It found interest amongst most of the electric power industry in the state once completed.
I eventually moved to a GIS Specialist position with the Georgia Power transmission department. I found myself planted into a huge project being undertaken at the time – the creation of a multimedia digital layer for the 16,000 mile transmission system in Georgia.
The project to collect data had been completed already. Helicopters had flown all transmission lines and had captured video and GPS coordinates for all structures (i.e. towers, switches, substations, etc.). (Georgia Transmission Line Mapping 2004-05 White Paper). The output of the data was essentially a lump of files that needed to be assembled into a database and connected to geographic features.
Working through this project required lots of database manipulations, ID matching, video review (for finding structure numbers), and reconciliation of incorrect attributes. It was very time consuming and frustrating at times, but was an opportunity to learn more about power transmission than I had ever wanted to know.
It also presented great opportunities for field work to verify data and to correct errors.
Read an article from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on the Georgia Power transmission system control room – the bunker inside their giant black box headquarters in downtown Atlanta where the state's power system is controlled.

Germany has leading role to play in climate change talks
Germany and Mexico co-hosted a global summit on climate change and some significant headway was made, but as the German Environment Minister pointed out, the most important issues remain unresolved. Germany is the regional power in Europe and just as it has played a leading role in dealing with the EU's financial crisis, it will play a leading role in resolving climate change issues as well.
Environment Minister Norbert Roettgen, commenting on the outcome of the 40-nation summit, told Germany news media that it had been "a contribution to making success possible again", adding that the importance of the summit's outcomes were significant because it laid the groundwork or foundation for further agreements on the most important issues.

my virgin hair
i have virgin hair. and i'm proud of it. never been permanently styled or even temporarily coloured. it looks black mostly, but on my birth certificate it says dark brown. which does kinda make sense because when i'm under light or the sun, it looks like i have some lighter highlights, but its black.
i decided to post this because some of you have asked me what i do to my hair. my usual routine is to wash my hair once every 2 - 3 days with baby shampoo (cuz i'm a child like that) and then just air dry it and walk around with a towel for the next hour. i do not own a hair dryer, and i only just got myself a hair brush last year - which sees more dust than it does hair. and for my haircuts, i just say 4 layers.
so basically, i do nothing. and maybe thats why its texture still looks good - because i haven't chemicalized it. of course, i've considered dying my hair a lighter shade, and getting some actual highlights, but when i asked my hair stylist who does my cuts, she practically assaulted me with her hair brush when i suggested it. virgin hair is apparently really rare now, so she wants me to keep it that way. as much as i want a mane change, i think the upkeep and possible drawbacks are a dealbreaker for me.
i mean, once its coloured, no more baby shampoo. i gotta get those 'colour lock in' ones. then, my hair is gonna get dry. which means conditioners and masks and serums. which also means losing texture - which leads to me having to actually spend time doing my hair. GG.
but to all you girls out there who experiment and style, you really have my admiration. because i'm tired just thinking about all that work. one day, i might just give in, but even my friends who've had dye jobs complain that their hair just isn't the same as before - despite all the upkeep.
food for thought: i kinda find it ironic, that initially everyone wanted to dye their hair to be different, but now its like EVERYONE has a dye job, so the ones who don't have it end up in that position.
and also, its funny how some asians dye their hair lighter and blonde - while some caucasians dye their hair darker and darker. it's like you always want what you can't have.
just like skin tone! in the west, people risk cancer to get tan, cuz pale skin is apparently not cool, and in asia, whitening products fly off the shelves because being 'white' and 'fair' is the bees-knees.

On another thread discussing Secret Invasion, I posted a suggested Milestone for characters who may or may not be Skrull imposters:
Who Do You Trust?
- Gain 1 XP when somebody doubts that you are who you claim to be
- Gain 3 XP when you provide a compelling reason to either accuse someone else of being a Skrull or of proving that you are who you claim to be.
- Gain 10 XP when you are conclusively revealed to be either yourself or a Skrull infiltrator.
A character with this milestone isn't guaranteed to be a Skrull, and will find it just as rewarding to be someone who people believe is a Skrull but actually isn't (such as Tony Stark during the actual Secret Invasion run - many of the New Avengers assumed that Tony was actually a Skrull, as it helped them justify what he had done during and after Civil War)

POD HD500 main board replacement
Like (0)
I bought a POD HD 500 and it died.
I took it to the authorized repair center and was shocked at how much the repair was going to cost.
I work on computers, so I understand that complex circuits sometimes fail.
I also know that it should not cost $330 to replace one part ever if it is the main board.
Is there any way for me to buy the part because I already paid $500 and have had it less than a year ?
If it's less than a year old, why woulnd't it be covered under the warranty? Your best bet would be trying to call Line 6 directly on this.
Please let us know if you can or can't buy one...There's no way I'd pay that much to have someone do something that I could do myself so it would be nice to know if you can buy replacement parts.
I was told that the Line 6 warranty was 90 days.
I have had every version of the POD and I am really disappointed.
Also, how much more could it have cost to put a power switch on the POD HD 500?
The warranty on the HD500 is one year. You can look here for reference: http://line6.com/support/docs/DOC-2300
If the service center is giving you trouble, call Line 6 directly at (818) 575-3600.
+1, You have a 1 year warranty on the HD500. You should be able to get it repaired for free.

The Potemkin President.
This president and his rise to power will be chewed over and spat out by generations of writers… left, right and in the mushy middle. Historians will not treat Barack Obama kindly. Nothing with this 'man' (as much as it slays me to refer to him as such… in the company of real men he wouldn't be given the time of day) is as it seems. He is as illusory as the will-o'-the-wisp over a southern swamp. He could put any carny barker to shame with his meaningless, high-flown rhetoric.
As a side note, Dee and I just celebrated our 600th publication last week. It's the first time I've given more than a cursory examination to our archives. I don't claim to be prescient, however, going clear back to the beginning of this column it's really spooky how accurately I described Barack Hussein Obama and his political agenda. I pegged him as a Marxist ideologue from day one. But then, I didn't allow the hype to sway me. At best, as I said at the time, we should reserve judgment, since at that time he was still selling himself as a moderate to the boobs.
The Potemkin was a Russian battleship built in 1898, glorified in Bolshevik and, later, communist literature in Stalinist Russia as the exemplar of revolutionary zeal, when the Potemkin's crew revolted against their Tsarist officers in 1905. read more »

With the onslaught of hedge funds being constantly tailed in the media, competition is on a high scale rise, and some of the most well paid business professionals are getting hired within this sector. However, this amount of competition results in hundreds of inquiries per week from students and professionals searching for employment opportunities.
Read MoreInsurance Underwriter
The role of insurance underwriters is to decide if applications for insurance cover (risks) should be accepted, and if so, what the terms of that acceptance are. They typically assess a risk according to the likelihood of a claim being made, doing so by weighing up a number of factors and asking for detailed information from prospective clients, also known as policy holders. The aim of an insurance underwriter is to minimise losses for his company and help to make a profit.
Read MoreInvestment Banker
The investment banking industry is defined by long hours and big money. It's an establishment that does not serve one specific function, but distends to a range of services that include underwriting, selling, trading securities (stocks and bonds), providing financial advisory services, and managing assets. Investment bankers mostly offer these services to companies, governments, non-profit and private institutions.

You can sign up for e-mail alerts about defective products.
We got a lukewarm response when we urged readers to sign up for the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's daily e-mail report about recalls. How boring, you thought. Well, folks, you don't know what you're missing.
Every day we scan the e-mail and invariably cringe. At the top of today's list: Under Armour's voluntary recall of about 211,000 athletic cups. Wouldn't you want to know about it if you owned one of them? It also said:
Hazard: The cups can break if hit, posing a risk of serious injury hazard to athletes.
Incidents/injuries: Under Armour has received five reports of cups breaking, including an injury involving cuts and bruising.
We tried to warn you. And sometimes these notices are even worse.
Do you ever regret not spending?
This guest post comes from Frank Curmudgeon at Bad Money Advice.
As any reader of Bad Money Advice knows, I enjoy nothing more than tweaking the nose of personal-finance conventional wisdom. Well, joy of joys, The New York Times recently had an article, in the science section no less, that spits in conventional wisdom's face, knees it in the groin and then kicks it as it rolls on the ground.
The piece discussed the work (.pdf file) of Ran Kivetz and Anat Keinan, two professors of marketing from the Columbia and Harvard business schools, respectively. (Marketing professor is, incidentally, the same line of work as the authors of "The Millionaire Next Door.") They have discovered a new malady to avoid: saver's remorse. It's just what it sounds like: that sad feeling you get with money in your pocket that you could have spent in some enjoyable way but, in a moment of weakness, chose to save.
This is just so awesome.
Free entertainment abounds online.
One luxury you can cut when costs for essentials are rising is your cable or satellite TV service. But how can you still watch your favorite shows?
David at My Two Dollars presents "35 ways to watch television without cable or satellite," and he's not just talking rabbit ears. After Option No. 1, an antenna, the rest are Web sites. Readers provided more suggestions, so the list is now up to 42 possibilities.
With a little care, your duds won't die early.
This post comes from Andrea Dickson at partner blog Wise Bread.
With everyone trying to stretch their dollars further these days, it makes sense to take care of the things we have, rather than buy replacements. This goes for clothing as much as anything else we own and use on a daily basis.
As a reformed clotheshorse, I struggle to prevent myself from shopping for new duds on a daily basis.
If you delay using them, you can achieve bigger savings.
This post comes from Trent Hamm at partner blog The Simple Dollar.
Many people don't bother to clip coupons, mostly because they believe that a 50-cent coupon isn't worth the effort. On the surface, I agree. Without a clever coupon strategy, it's probably not worth the effort.
About two months ago, I was talking about this with a friend who works for Hy-Vee, a grocery store chain here in Iowa. He gave me a tip: Take the coupon section out of the Sunday paper and put it aside for four weeks. Then open it up and clip everything that's even remotely of interest, whether you'd normally buy it or not.
Blogger's wallet -- and sanity -- thank her.
Jennifer Derrick had the guts to bring this up with her extended family: Let's not exchange gifts this year. If her window had been open, we suspect she would have heard the collective sigh of relief.
Jennifer is not a scrooge. But she did think about how meaningless -- and how stressful --the commercial aspect of the holiday had become to her. In an excellent post at Saving Advice called "The totally free (or nearly) Christmas," she explains how her thinking evolved:
Attempts to be frugal often fall flat.
Spurred on by the faltering economy, more people are trying to spend wisely and save money. But are we getting results?
Blogger Kay Bell at Don't Mess With Taxes points to a New York Times story called "Failing home economics" that questions many people's methods.
Blogger's advice: 'Be honest.'
Kris at Cheap Healthy Good is equally interested in personal finance and nutrition. Recently she combined her insights about people with severe problems in each area into one post: "Touchy subjects: Confronting loved ones about weight and money problems."
"What do you say to your 65-year-old father who puts on 100 pounds in five years? How do you tell your mom you can't support her if she has no savings when she retires?" Kris asks. "The short answer: Be honest."
Here are some highlights from her long answer:

Hy i have a small problem: I am making a sitemap for my site that have a forum but one day i have let say 90 pages next day i have 65 .
How can i solve the problem ? Will the pages that are not in the sitemap anymore show as errors in google webmaster?
Please help . If i exclude all pages from the/forum from the sitemap and show only the static html pages of the site how will this look too google?
I forgot to mention or not been to clear that I have a site and to that site i have attached a forum so i do not have a stand alone forum. So i will need a sitemap at least for the site and exclude the forum from the sitemap(my opinion). But i do not know if or what errors i will recive in webmaster tools.

It is news, even if only little, but maybe it'll help you plan your purchases or something:
New Battalion contains 20 Swordfighters/Spearman/Halbardiers, 10 Handgunner/Crossbowmen, 8 Knights and a Great Cannon/Mortar. Price is the same.
Enjoy =)

so they removed the greatswords and put in a cannon so that's a £10 change on the cost of individual components.

I see the same fear in you that would take the heart of me,
but fear not for we don't auto break and can re-roll for it next turn.

a day may come when Ewar doesn't powergame, but it is not this day
This day our dice will roll sixes
This day we will be victorious!
Pretty bad deal overall. I am pretty sure that everybody got more than enough Ulla knights . Well and it makes new knights even less likely.

Terrible change, there goes the only way of getting hold of greatswords at a non-insane price.
Plus, Mortars, Handguns and Crossbows got Cruddace'd and are not worth taking, so that (along with the unit of 8 knights with "GW 1992" stamped on their frames) limits the potential of the box.

If you play any of Mantic's games, check out my Battlescribe project for KoW and Warpath.
Interestingly, I like the change and will be buying at least 2. From a cash value standpoint it is still a good deal (especially when one buys from a discounter) and it is probably a better starting point for new players anyways.
It's not really that good a deal.Interestingly, I like the change and will be buying at least 2. From a cash value standpoint it is still a good deal (especially when one buys from a discounter) and it is probably a better starting point for new players anyways.
With maelstrom-prices, you 'saved' almost £20 by buying the old battalion.
The new battalion is worth ~£10 less, and I'd expect it to get more expensive as well. Perhaps you'll 'save' ~£5 by buying it.
On the other hand, what do you get? Mortars are useless, most Empire-players already have as many Cannons as they need, Xbows/Handgunners are now a bad choice, and you get 8 knights from the early 90's.
Ofcourse, if you want/need everything in the battalion, go ahead - otherwise just buy exactly what you need, you'll save money that way.
Thanks, but I'll pass on this "deal".
The Collect Call of the Cthulhu
Damien 1427's Broad Collection of Tat - My attempt at actually painting things.
Wait... what change? I haven't seen a new batallion anywhere!
I observe that the recent trend is to put the outdated kits in the battallions as a manner to get rid of the stock they have and nobody wants. Common goblins, Empire knights...
This is the war-ravaged world of Warhammer, and there's only WAR!... and hammers.
In what way? What shines about it for you?
I'm looking at a "Not quite enough" unit of melee Core, a "Near overpriced" unit of ranged Core, an "Ancient and no longer in-scale" unit of mounted Core (or I suppose Special (?) depending on how you use them), and a warmachine that can be built as a "rather effective" cannon or a "you want how many points for that?" mortar.
It's not a very efficient army building block (then again, neither was the previous one due to the knights) - you buy maybe two and then you start drowning in knights with subsequent purchases. Even then you're lacking in Core infantry, which is sort of a travesty for the Empire.
Hell...40 melee State Troops and 10 ranged State Troops would have been more sensible than this.
I don't know, battalions always seem to be a bit on the weird side for contents, due in large part to 6th edition and earlier sprues that were made with 4-men-ranks in mind.
Here in Russia we can still buy an old battalion ( and I recon we will be able to do so for quite a long time )
BUT it`s price tag syas, that it costs 82 quid, now is it worth it to buy, if I`m going to go to UK this summer, where the prices are slightly better?
The new Battalion is actually £60 - not the same price as the current one (which is £70)
The Beastmen battalion isn't that bad, but it seems...small.You don't know the Beastmen battalion.
At least it includes Goldigors.
Yeah, the HE battalion isn't to great either - but I'd argue that it's more usefull than the Empire battalion.Just look at the High Elf battalion...
*Ponders if I should buy one of the "old" Empirebattalions from maelstrom before they stop selling them*

The profile of the grill carries a gentle arch across the top with fanciful swirls just beneath. The simplicity of the vertical spindles make sure that the bed maintains a certain calm. One should note that each of these vertical elements is fixed into place with a solid casting. The footboard terminates at the bottom with another solid casting providing a very finished look.

Another Taxpayer-Funded Green-Tech Company Files Bankruptcy
Ener1 Inc., which owns an electric car battery-maker that reaped a $118-million grant from the Obama administration, filed for bankruptcy protection Thursday. The New York-based company claimed defaults on its bond debt were spurred by rising competition from China and other countries. Ener1 listed $73.9 million in assets and $90.5 million in debt as of December 31 in Chapter 11 papers filed in U.S. Bankruptcy Court.
Warren Buffett to Benefit From Obama's Keystone XL Decision
As environmental groups hail President Obama's rejection of the Keystone XL pipeline, billionaire and prominent Democratic donor Warren Buffett (left) is set to reap a handsome reward from the decision. Buffett's Burlington Northern Santa Fe LLC is a notable beneficiary — among other U.S. and Canadian railroads — of the move, as it is one of the railroads that will transport the Canadian oil if the pipeline isn't approved.
House Republicans Question Safety of Chevy Volt Batteries
House Republicans unleashed a barrage of criticism Wednesday during a House hearing on Chevrolet's Volt electric car, after the head of the federal auto safety agency insisted that the vehicles are not dangerous. "The Chevrolet Volt is safe to drive and it has been safe to drive the whole time," David Strickland, head of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), told a congressional panel. "Not only would I drive it, I would [take] my wife, my mother and my baby sister along for the ride."
Another Taxpayer-funded Solar Company Lays Off 40 Employees
Another taxpayer-funded solar-panel company, Willard & Kelsey Solar Group LLC, is undergoing operational issues, as it recently laid off about 40 people indefinitely due to delays in its production line. CEO and board chairman Michael Cicak would not comment on the timeline of the production changes or when the laid-off employees might return to their jobs.
Kerry Kennedy May Make $40M in Chevron's Ecuador Oil-Drilling Dispute
Human rights activist Kerry Kennedy, ex-wife of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and daughter of the late Robert F. Kennedy, stands to rake in millions from her seemingly selfless defense of the oil-drilled rain forest in Ecuador. An Ecuadorean appeals court recently upheld a ruling that Chevron Corporation, the U.S. oil giant, should pay $18 billion in damages (which the company is now appealing) to plaintiffs who accused the company of inflicting environmental damage on the Amazon jungle — in what Kennedy called "the biggest corporate environmental disaster on the face of the Earth."
Energy Department Invested $6.5B in Risky "Green" Ventures
The Obama administration's track record with taxpayer-funded, green-tech subsidies is severely flawed, and according to new documents obtained by CBS News, its failures were all too predictable. The Energy Department's $535-million loan guarantee to Solyndra is, at least publicly, its most illustrious investment blunder, as the company went bankrupt last year leaving taxpayers with a hefty bill and putting more than 1,000 employees out of work.
Fed-backed Ethanol Plant Sold; Taxpayers Lose Again
A failed southeast Georgia ethanol factory was sold Tuesday for pennies on the dollar after squandering tens of millions in federal and state tax dollars. Range Fuels, a bankrupt U.S. cellulosic ethanol company, sold its only factory, located in Soperton, Georgia, to LanzaTech, a biofuel company based in New Zealand.
GM Offers Buyback for Chevy Volt Owners Fearful of Battery Fires
General Motors will buy Chevrolet Volts back from any owner who worries that their plug-in electric car will catch fire, the company's CEO told the Associated Press in an interview Thursday. CEO Dan Akerson maintained that the vehicles are safe, but said GM is offering the buyback to ensure customer loyalty. The new offer expands a company offer made Monday to grant loaner cars to any owners fearful of their Volts catching fire.
New E-mails Link BBC Executives to Climategate Scientists
After a cluster of disconcerting e-mails and documents surfaced last week from climate scientists associated with the "Climategate" scandal of 2009, it was reported Sunday that top British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) executives sought advice from Britain's leading green activist research center. Released on November 22, the leaked e-mails and documents reveal climate "experts" collaborating to plot devious schemes to further their global-warming agenda.
Ex-Solyndra Employees Eligible For $14.3M in Federal Aid
Former employees of the defunct solar company Solyndra are now eligible for a combined $14.3 million in federal aid, the Labor Department announced Monday. Approved through the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program, the 1,100 employees who were laid off after Solyndra went belly up in late August are set to receive payments of about $13,000 each, which will be tacked on to the $535 million in loan guarantees that taxpayers are already on the hook for.

Roxanne Shante is an icon in her community.
She rose up from the projects in Queens to become a hip-hop pioneer in the '80s and was later a breast cancer survivor.
But now, she says, the culture that helped her succeed has left her with a new health battle.
"I come from a culture that actually nicknamed it sugar and it's not because it's a sweet disease at all," she says.
Earlier this year, Roxanne was diagnosed with diabetes. The love and pudding that had helped her through her struggle with breast cancer suddenly became a serious and potentially deadly risk.
"Everyone thinks that giving me something sweet is making me feel better, which it did. But then its also killing me," she says. "I've never had a moment where there wasn't something I was up against. And here goes another thing to be up against. I was told that you need to truly, truly watch your diet if you still want to be here."
Today, she is using her struggle and recognition to help others, spreading the word about healthy eating and diabetes with the American Diabetes Association on the streets and on the airwaves.
"I am going to take what I have and I am going to get this information out there because people need to know," she says. "Because if you teach them and they know and they have the information, they will follow. But if no one tells you, then what are you supposed to do?"
It seems her personality and passion for the cause is already having an effect.
"I used to be 336 pounds. I was the type of kid that took the whole box of sugar and poured it in the Kool-Aid," says John Gellineau, who suffers from diabetes. "Shante would take time out and go with me to my appointments and make sure I do what I need to do."
And so, for motivating her community to exchange pudding and pounds for a healthy lifestyle, Roxanne Shante is our New Yorker of the Week.
