A few salient reasons why Insurance Australia Group (ASX: IAG and OTC:IAUGF) is an eminently short-able stock:
The stock trades at 42 times P/E -- which is 2 to 3 times as much as its peer group anywhere in the advanced economies; the stock is just plain expensive -- both by global and Australian insurance sector standards. On a relative value basis, IAG offers no industry-leading data point to justify its premium pricing.
Whether it is Price-to-Sales or Price-to-Book or any other valuation metric, IAG is dearer than virtually any of its global or regional peers by a distance.
IAG's Price-to-Sales Ratio is 0.98 vis-a-vis the global insurance industry average of 0.54. The company's principal Australian peers trade at Price-to-Sales ratios of 0.79 for QBE (ASX: QBE) and 0.73 for Suncorp (ASX: SUN). IAG's Price-to-Book Ratio is 2.03 vis-a-vis the global insurance industry average of 1.19. For QBE, this ratio is 1.35 and for Suncorp: 0.83.
So, the company's global and Australian peers command much lower valuations on both these metrics. In fact, IAG's Price-to-Tangible Book Value is a staggering: 3.5 vis-a-vis the Insurance industry's Price-to-Tangible Book Value of: 1.0.
Net margins are very ordinary: 2.9% -- which is discernibly lower than even its immediate Aussie insurance sector peer group: QBE Insurance (3.8%) and Suncorp (4.5%).
As per data compiled by Reuters, IAG has a long-term debt-to-equity ratio that is nearly twice (38.2) the industry average (22.1).
Earnings Momentum:
Compared with a year ago, the insurer's revenues have grown by 14.7% for the most recent quarter (MRQ). On the other hand, the company's earnings have shrunk by 29.2% MRQ. Even on a trailing twelve month (TTM) basis, the company's revenues have risen by 12.8% but its earnings have fallen 17.2%.
For FY 2012, the company's net profits declined 17.2% from A$250 million a year ago to A$207 million this year.
Clearly, the markets are rewarding unprofitable growth. The company's management would potentially defend unprofitable growth by stating that they have entered fast-growing emerging markets like Indonesia and Vietnam. But as one does more research, one learns that there is brutal price competition and a crowded marketplace for any new entrant to contend with in these Southeast Asian markets.
Price Momentum:
The stock has also made a dramatic run year-to-date for no apparent positive reason, up 41.2% where S&P/ASX 200 has risen only 6.7%. Meanwhile, IAG's immediate Australian competitors have been trailing far behind with QBE Insurance (OTCPK:QBEIF) going sideways down -0.3% YTD and Suncorp up 8.5% YTD.
Trading at A$ 4.25, the stock's been breaching 52-week highs on a regular basis. It hasn't seen such peaks since May, 2008. We all know what happened next to the global economy and world markets. There is little evidence to support its ascent except the company's growth rates which have been driven by unprofitable expansion into a significantly more competitive insurance market such as the UK -- where by the way, the company has stumbled. Due its poor performance, the company's UK unit is under review for a possible fire-sale.
Macro-economic Headwinds / Concentration Risk:
Australia's fortunes are largely tied to those of the world -- and particularly to those of emerging Asia. As growth rates stall or even decline in various parts of the world as well as in Asia, Australia's steady, multi-year run of GDP expansion is poised for a reversal. As goes Australia (and to a lesser extent New Zealand), so goes Insurance Australia Group. As it is, the company's 'promising' Asian operations only account for roughly 5% of the group's revenues. The UK unit is unprofitable. So, for all intents and purposes, there is enormous 'concentration risk' in Insurance Australia's business.
How, then, can the high valuation and rising stock price of Insurance Australia be explained?

Srinagar, May 1 (UNI) Alleging that whole nation was under economic recession, the Jammu and Kashmir unit of Communist Party of India (M) said the poor was getting poorer and the rich richer because of anti people budget.
Extending greetings to the working class, the state secretary of the CPI(M) Mohammad Yousuf Targami paid rich tributes to the workers, who laid down their lives fighting Dogra repression in 1865.
The leader of the CPI(M) in the Legislative Assembly said unemployment is soaring and prices have been shooting up in the wake of anti-people budget.
He urged upon all those who stand for working class interests to oppose these policies.
Mr Tarigami urged upon government to stop victimization and police repression upon the workers demanding their legitimate rights in the Jammu and Kashmir.
He demanded implementation of labour laws to ensure democratic and trade union rights to the working people.

Much better overall performance, much more balance and lengthier battery life was a lot more important.

150 m2 Two Bedroom + Two bathrooms House
150 sqm house with Two bedrooms+Two bathrooms+ Dinning area + sitting area, big separate kitchen and a large terrace with views to Puerto de la Cruz beyond the sea. Pool towels are provided.
Casas Coquetas
This 8,000 metre estate is one of the few examples left from a more splendid age which Tenerife knew when the Island was a paradise known only to a few Europeans. The 'finca' has outstanding views of Teide, the sea and the Oratava Valley. Its situation is excellent for travelling to other parts of the island as it is close to the motorway yet only a few minutes from the beach and the centre of Puerto de la Cruz. Close to the finca is to be found one of the best restaurants in the area. Although the origins of the finca dates to the XV1th century, the house itself dates back to the early XXth century. It is an elegant house with large rooms which have been carefully maintained. Mainly traditional furniture. The tropical gardens are a special feature with charming and secluded corners where one can relax with a book or merely admire the scenery. For the more energetic there is a tennis court with tennis racquets available free of charge, a swimming pool, a sauna, all set in lush vegetation with fruit trees. These facilities are shared amongst the 5 houses. This spacious house stretches over two floors with access to a rooftop terrace. Enjoy meals at the long dinner table on the ground floor, or on the outside patio in front of the kitchen. The master bedroom with its wide screen windows is the most special bedroom of the house – you may have to toss a coin. For sunbathing in private use the small rooftop terrace. From the roofs tower platform enjoy a spectacular 360° view over the Orotava valley and the Atlantic Ocean .
Pool Towels are provided .

Beautiful gardens very well kept with nice views over Puerto de la Cruz and little houses with charm
About the Owner
About Ana B. Reid
My name is Ana B. Reid. I live in Tenerife and I have been many years receiving clients on this spectacular finca, doubtless the most spectacular one I have seen in Tenerife. Its proximity to Puerto de la Cruz makes it a comfortable place to stay. I know the area very well and I give all the guests very useful information about beaches, restaurants, and must on this side of the island, where you can find 80% of the Tourist Attractions. I also have a lot of experience with tourist, as I studied Business Administration at University, I was selected to participate on the exchange students programme with Manchester University and a Master on Leisure and Tourist industry. Afte my studies, I worked in several companies until March 99, when I started her own project with a company specialising on Tenerife and called Tenerife Country Villas, getting the Tourist License from Gobierno (Goverment) de Canarias. Coming from an English family, I perfectly understand the wishes and hobbies of our European visitors, and being a Tenerife native, I have real information about the island, such as access to any subject which might interest my clients. Welcome to Tenerife!
Ana B. Reid purchased this house in 2001
Why Ana B. Reid chose La Orotava
We have had many clients here and this holiday house is always improving. All our clients come again or recommend it to our friends, which is the guarantee that it is working well. It is a very quiet property, although it has very easy communications everywhere. It has a restaurant with garden only 30 metres from the house that we highly recommend. the elegance of this house is everywhere: on the pergola with views, on the picturesque chapel with many stories behind and the extremely ample spaces.
What makes this house unique
Having a Tennis court is a great advantage, also having a sauna. The pool is heated up to 24ºC and it is a large one, ideal if you like swimming. On the other hand, it has daily cleaning service from Monday to Friday, which is definitely a must. There are only 5 houses on the finca, which guarantees the privacy considering the property is 8000 m2!
Available Rentals
One bedroom house Christmas/Easter 70 Euros/ Night
Two bedroom house Christmas/Easter 105 Euros/Night
Extra bed for child up to 10 yrs: 10 Euros/Night
Child on ample cot (2 years): free

Well maintained very clean two bedroom two bathroom accommodation with speculation views .
We enjoyed Finca el Drago.Lovely grounds with quiet pool and sauna.The staff were very helpful and helped us every way they could.I would highly recommend it
Beautiful gardens very well kept with nice views over Puerto de la Cruz and little houses with charm
A nice luxury to have a swimming pool in the midst of gardens the size of a park and all this a bit outside of Puerto de la Cruz, although the town is near enough to drop by every now and then. The place is extremely well kept and friendly staff comes in every day. Tenerife offers so many possibilities like the Teide, the Loro park, etc. and to be stationed in the North that is far greener than the South was just perfect for us. We would as so many others that we met there not hesitate to go back (but we should not say it as it might become known...).
Vacation in paradise
The second time my family (with children 6 and 10 years) had a rest in Finka El Drago.
Last year we were very satisfied and this year decided to repeat.
Convenient location, quiet, beautiful garden (avocado, palm trees, flowers) .Green parrot wakes up in the morning. Sauna and tennis courts for a healthy holiday.
Staff quietly do their work every morning. Cleanliness and tidiness.
Thank you Anna. She gave full information about shops, restaurants, etc.
We will definitely return to paradise.
Many thanks
Perfect stay!
We have stayed in Finca el Drago 300m house and it was perfect. The house is huge and well equipped with all you need. Great place for family with kids, even the very small one as the garden allows them to walk around in a safe area. Our little one just started to walk and it was so easy to walk around or when she got tired to put her to the buggy and she could still sleep outside. The stuff is very friendly and helpful. All you need is a car / bus to get to places nearby (you can walk to the shops, just next to the cars which is only so nice).
We will definitely come back. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Our family (with 2 children) spent a wonderful holiday in Finca el Drago.
Beautiful views, finca, interior and landscape. All well maintained and always felt the work. Calm and quiet. Great location for exploring the island. Very good cleaning every day.
They were given instructions on how to reach the finca, on the best restaurants, shops, etc. We were very pleased.
Many thanks for the perfect vacation- physical and aesthetic.
We couldn't believe what a brilliant place this is. The location is perfect for seeing the north of Tenerife. You can easily walk to La Orotava, one of the loveliest towns I've seen in Spain, get to most other places by nearby public transport, or access the motorway system in minutes. The site itself has to be seen to be believed. It is beautifully landscaped and maintained with magnificent views, and perfect for sunbathing by the pool, if you like that sort of thing. The house, one of a number on the finca, and each different from all the others, is of a classic design and furnishing. We used the sunny terrace as it was January, but there are two other terraces in comparative shade, perfect for when it gets hot. Any problem we had was quickly resolved by Lucy. There were some minor irritations, but we hope to go back again.

It has a restaurant with garden only 30 metres from the house that we highly recommend. the elegance of this house is everywhere: on the pergola with views, on the picturesque chapel with many stories behind and the extremely ample spaces."
Activity and Interests
We can send a map with situation of this finca, which is very good as it has excellent communications to everywhere. Most of our clients book again on this house, I like mentioning also that there is a big road next to it, 150 metres, although there is such an amount of vegetation there that absolutely no one has complaint before. Only on the busy hours of the day, and from the south garden (never inside the houses), you can hear the whispering of some traffic, but it is so low that I insist that no one notice, I guarantee that. I went last month to do the annual check ( like checking the properties I rent) and I was very pleased of the maintenance. This is our most successful property. The north gardens have views to Puerto de la Cruz and the sea.
It is situated on the limit of Puerto de la Cruz. The house is surrounded by a lot of vegetation which gives a quiet atmosphere. On the main road walking 220 metres from the house there is the Bus Stop, every half and hour there is a bus stop going up to La Orotava centre and Bus Station there and also every half an hour there is a bus going down to Puerto de la Cruz centre and the beach.
Just near the property, on the left side, you can find Restaurant Los Perales, we recommend you to book a Garden table, definitely we recommend "arroz caldoso" their specialty (a kind of rice with sea food, it is absolutely delicious, they also have a wide range of excellent wines).
On the same side, about 350 metres, you can find the famous restaurant Lucas, considered the best on the north. On the other side of the road you have two more restaurants, but you have to walk 400 metres for that. There is also a very good restaurant very simple called "El ramal" which is actually the tipical house for local food (we call it "Guachinche"), delicious and Euros 7 per person! A bit further you can find the cool "Lucas", romantic and stylish, the best restaurant on this side of the island.
For supermarket, we recommend you use the big comercial center down near Martianez Beach, or walk up to La Orotava centre, where there are also some good supermarkets and more restaurants.
To get to Martianez beach, the easiest thing to do is to take the bus (it takes only 4 minutes to get there). The bus service here is cheap (especially if you use a Bono-Bus card) and punctual. You can also be collected by a taxi (I will provide a telephone number)

My 2nd Stylus Review After A Few Years
Man... I literally love this plugin to death. I didn't love it at first and set it aside for awhile. It's dated and goofy in some ways. But I keep coming up with awesome beats with it and use it in conjunction with other plugins. I take back what I said before, you can get real dope realistic sounding drum kits. I use it in kit mode actually, but it seems like most people might explore the loops initially. Its such a shame they have not updated this software because it could be like an omnisphere power plugin for urban drums. It sucks you can import your own wav samples and stuff but the included sounds are banging. The effects are smackin. I wish stylus just released effects plugins too. Their tape saturator, limiters, distortion and all effects are worth being standalone plugins IMO. PLEASE COME OUT WITH A NEW STYLUS I LOVE THIS PROGRAM. You can do some really cool bussing in kit mode. Great for starting songs out with a groove. Then layer your samples up in your DAW. I take back my old review. The kits are laid out in the best possible manner for playing keyboard drums. PLEASE COME OUT WITH A NEW ONE ASAP SPECTRASONICS I AM BEGGING YOU!!!!

US STOCKS-Futures lower on global concerns, impending Fed meet
* Futures down: Dow 58 pts, S&P 6.5 pts, Nasdaq 21 pts
By Yashaswini Swamynathan
June 13 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures were lower on Monday as investors scurried to safe haven assets ahead of a Federal Reserve policy meeting starting Tuesday.
* The Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (FOMC) will meet for two days to decide when to raise interest rates for the second time in nearly a decade.
* While Fed Chair Janet Yellen had been dropping hints of a rate hike most of last month, shockingly weak May hiring data and the impending UK vote have forced her to tone down her message.
* Banks, which stand to benefit most if the Fed raises interest rates, were lower in premarket trading on Monday. Bank of America was down 1.6 percent while Citigroup and JPMorgan were off 0.5 percent.
* Yellen is expected to hold a press conference after the meeting on Wednesday.
* Traders have reduced the odds of a hike this month to less than 1 percent and one in July to 33 percent, according to CME Group's FedWatch tool.
* Britain is set to decide on remaining in the European Union on June 23, hampering the value of the pound against the dollar. Continuación...

International Business; Japan to Get On-Line Service
Published: August 1, 1995
TOKYO, July 31— Plans for a joint venture to provide an on-line communications service in Japan were announced today by the Sony Corporation, the Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation and the AT&T Corporation.
The trial service will be similar to AT&T's Personalink Services, introduced in the United States last year. It will offer subscribers the ability to exchange messages, including handwritten or typewritten text; drawings; animation, or voice messages through ordinary telephone connections. Text and graphics can also be transmitted by facsimile.
During the trial, the service will be enhanced to include news reports, entertainment listings, business listings and subscriber bulletin boards.
The network will use software based on Magic Cap software, developed by General Magic Inc., a software venture in which Nippon Telegraph, Sony and AT&T are all involved. General Magic is based in Sunnyvale, Calif.
The companies' initial investment in the venture will be about $5.8 million, with Nippon Telegraph providing 44 percent and AT&T and Sony each putting up 28 percent.

I come from a long line of strong women, pioneers, healers, matriarchs and educators. Born in Missouri, I spent the first part of my childhood in Hawaii. The first part of my adult life was spent in New Mexico, raising two beautiful daughters. In the 80's I moved back to Missouri and ventured into the field of PrePress. After a career of over 20 years I am pursuing a new life path using my more creative side. In my career I learned about (and then taught a younger generation) all the wonderful new things that technology can bring to us, but I have always been devoted to the preservation of the best parts of our past. I am drawn to many mediums including, embroidery, sewing, crafting miniatures, photography, photo retouching and historical photo restoration.

Frank Caprio, who is attempting to become the first Democrat governor of Rhode Island in 16 years, tossed the verbal grenade at Mr Obama for failing to back his election campaign.
He told a local radio station before a visit by the President that he could take his endorsement and "shove it" after Mr Obama refused to endorse him.
Mr Caprio is running against an independent candidate, former Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee, who backed Mr Obama in the 2008 presidential election despite being a Republican.
White House aides said the president had put personal choices above the party in deciding not to endorse the Democratic candidate.
"Out of respect for his friend Lincoln Chafee, the president decided not to get involved in this race," said White House spokesman Bill Burton.
Rhode Island is one of the few states where Mr Obama's approval rating is more than 50 per cent.
The Democrats face losing both chambers of Congress, the House and Senate, in next Tuesday's mid-term election. Millions of voters will cast ballots for 435 House seats and 37 of 100 Senate seats, while 37 states will elect governors.
Should the Republicans seize the majority in both houses Mr Obama is in danger of being a lame duck president as, without a majority, he faces an uphill task in passing any legislation.
The latest poll by political website Politico will make grim reading for senior Democrats today. It showed that independent voters, who helped sweep Mr Obama into office, were now veering towards the Republicans.
Dissatisfied with his policies, notably the $1 trillion health care reform Bill and his attempts to kickstart the faltering economy, many have lost faith in his ability to lead America.
A pre-election Battleground poll showed Republicans with a 14-point advantage among independents. More than 60 per cents hold an unfavourable view of the health reforms law, while just under 70 per cent said the recovery legislation was not working.
On the question of leadership, 69 per cent of independents say they have less faith in government now than they did just before Mr Obama was elected.

London's property market is widely expected to stutter as a result of the country's decision to leave the EU. While this could be an uncomfortable time for property owners, it may offer exciting opportunities — be that for buying a larger home, or perhaps to enter London's lucrative House in Multiple Occupation market.
A House in Multiple Occupation — or HMO — is basically a property where three or more unrelated individuals/households pay for their own rooms while sharing communal amenities such as a bathroom or cooking facilities. They are particularly popular with those who would struggle to rent a flat on their own, such as young professionals, students and those in receipt of benefits.
Returns in double figures
Many landlords are able to generate impressive double-digit returns by renting out rooms separately in an HMO.
One, who I shall call "Jinny", recently bought a large four- bedroom house in Ilford which she converted to create a six-bedroom HMO. All the rooms were let to professionals within a week for rents of between £450-£700 with bills included. Jinny thinks her return is currently about 15 per cent.
This is very different to London's buy-to-let market, where double-digit returns are confined to the storybooks. I am doing well to get a five per cent gross yield on my latest rental. The problem is that while nationally high, London's rents have failed to keep pace with the capital's property prices. And once you've paid service charges, maintenance costs, agent fees and covered the costs of any empty periods, you may find you have little left for your efforts.
Come next April, the changes to the tax treatment on buy-to-let mortgage interest payments will make the environment even more challenging.
The HMO market doesn't tie up as much capital as the buy-to-let market. For serial investors, a key strategy for maximising your return is to use mortgage financing to pull out as much capital from each property as possible and reinvest it into another rental property.
But for both buy-to-let and HMO mortgages, the amount of equity you can pull out depends on the rental income. In my experience, London's relatively low buy-to-let rental yield makes it difficult to release more than 50 per cent of the property's value.
An HMO, however, with its higher rental return, can let you release 70 to 80 per cent. This makes it a much more efficient use of your hard-earned cash — though you typically will pay a higher interest rate and arrangement fees.
Play by the rules
Before leaping on to the HMO profit bandwagon, careful research is required. HMOs have provided some of the UK's poorest-quality housing in the past. To combat this, strict regulations have been introduced about occupancy numbers, room size, fire escapes and the number of communal amenities.
For bigger HMOs, or those in areas where concerns about housing quality remain, landlords may also require a licence to operate. These need to be obtained from the local council, usually incur a cost and last for a maximum of five years. Getting it wrong can mean a £20,000 fine and other sanctions, such as a 12-month rent repayment order.
It's wise to work through the HMO requirements methodically and in liaison with your local HMO authority, use an experienced builder to convert your property, and ensure you have sufficient funds for all requirements.
Apart from council regulations, the property may also have stipulations that prohibit an HMO set-up. For example, the lease on one of my properties only allows me to sublet it to one family unit and not multiple households. You need to know this before you invest.
A final consideration is managing the property. With an HMO, you are renting out individual rooms which can be a lot more time-consuming than renting the whole flat in one go. As there is also a high probability that the sharers are strangers, you may find yourself dealing with anything from a love triangle to a selfish late-night party animal.
You can always hire a letting agent but as HMO dwellers can be a more transient part of the rental market, be prepared to pay out a lot more in fees. So, HMOs are not for the faint-hearted. They are more hassle, and have higher running costs as a result of increased management and maintenance work. But if you do your research and pick wisely, maybe you could make a healthy return on your investment.

Walcott closes the book on critique of manager
Arsenal attacker sticks to his guns about Capello but tells Sam Wallace he wants a central striking role for club and country
Arsenal attacker sticks to his guns about Capello but tells Sam Wallace he wants a central striking role for club and country
Fabio Capello's plans for England's friendly against Holland on 10 August suffered another blow yesterday when Jack Wilshere aggravated an ankle injury that Arsène Wenger says all but rules him out the game.
There is too much that links Jose Mourinho to Andre Villas-Boas for there not to be comparisons. They came to Chelsea from Porto immediately after winning a European trophy. They began management young, neither had much of a playing career and they possess the kind of acute intelligence not always to be found in football. And yet in one respect they are very different.
For the Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti, the deed was done on Sunday in a football stadium corridor. For Jerry Seinfeld, there was simply no script for him one day. Andy McSmith tells the tales of how bad news can be broken
Ibsen's Little Eyolf, which opens tonight in London starring Imogen Stubbs, is an unsettling portrait of a marriage in turmoil
This gaffer take is a special one
England manager Fabio Capello has spoken to Club England chairman Sir David Richards about his contract with the Football Association.
Burnley insist Brian Laws' position as manager is "not under threat".
Mick McCarthy's decision to rest all but one of his first team for last night's game at Old Trafford is a dangerous new development in the Premier League that could undermine the nature of the competition itself.
Graeme Souness has ruled himself out of the running to succeed George Burley amid rumours that he will be the next Scotland manager.
Arsenal's victory over Tottenham this weekend saw Arsene Wenger reach the milestone of 1000 Premier League points since he took charge of the Gunners.
The Independent's Glenn Moore joined fiery Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock in the dugout last week.
England's dominance of what had been expected to be a difficult World Cup qualifying group means competition for places in Fabio Capello's 24-man squad for the tournament – assuming they get there – will be fierce.
Richard Ferguson was a QC who, after arriving on the London legal scene in the early 1980s, went on to feature in a stream of the most high-profile criminal cases of the last two decades.
Sven Goran Eriksson's career as a football manager has, lest we forget, produced a string of successes - the sort of trophy haul that made England fans delighted when he was appointed manager.

Thanks, Tom!
I am looking forward to this course. Its been awhile since I was in Fredericksburg.... one of the students is actually a guy I went through the academy with there many years ago!
This is a discussion on Combat Focus Shooting Course & PTTA within the Defensive Carry & Tactical Training forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; COMBAT FOCUS SHOOTING With ROB PINCUS December 8th & 9th 2008 Prerequisite: Basic Pistol Course Class Size: 15 Students Max Instructors: Rob Pincus & Adjunct ...
With ROB PINCUS
December 8th & 9th 2008
Prerequisite: Basic Pistol Course
Class Size: 15 Students Max
Instructors: Rob Pincus & Adjunct Staff Instructors
Combat Focus is an intuitive shooting program that is based on the study of empirical evidence from real violent encounters and builds on the body's natural reaction to an attack. At the ranges that gun fights typically occur, Combat Focus is the most effective way to engage your threat with a handgun. This two day course empowers students by encouraging them to embrace their bodies natural reaction to a lethal threat and work with it to neutralize that threat as efficiently and effectively as possible. The Combat Focus Technique is not hip-shooting, in fact, the only significant difference between using this technique and sighted fire is the focus of your attention at the moment the trigger breaks.
You are much more likely to be caught off-guard by an aggressive attacker in close quarters and low-light than you are to be confronted by a truly lethal threat in broad daylight standing 30 yards away in front of a dirt berm.
This course is features a significant amount time discussing what happens during dynamic encounters and dissecting each shooters performance.
Ammunition Requirements: 1,500 rounds (minimum) of factory loaded ammunition.
Perronis Tactical Training Academy will not be selling ammunition at this course.
Gear List: Pistol, hip holster, three magazines, magazine holders, sturdy belt, wraparound eye protection, ear protection, Baseball type cap.
Course Cost: $400.00
The Classroom portion of the class will be held @ PTTA Classroom 1380 Central Park Blvd Suite 208 Fredericksburg, Va. 22401. 9:00am The Range portion will be held at The PTTA Range in Stafford. For more information or to register for this course contact Tom Perroni:

Thanks, Tom!
I am looking forward to this course. Its been awhile since I was in Fredericksburg.... one of the students is actually a guy I went through the academy with there many years ago!
This course is filling up fast!
It is not often that an Instructor of this caliber is in Virginia!
Not only do you get training from Rob Pincus but you get to train at a facility that has paper, steel and moving targets! With a flat pistol range that stretches out 500 yards! With 15 shooting lanes!
What are you waiting for!
You guys are going to love it. Rob Pincus knows what he's doing, he articulates himself incredibly well, and explains everything he wants you to do. He accepts no excuses--expect to hear "FIX IT!" more than once. <g>
We're having him back out in May and the 15 guys who took the course are all coming back--THAT, sir, is a testament to his ability.
Ps--If you want to get him going, ask him if it's true that he once threw a Navy SEAL's pistol into the berm. Make sure your holster has good retention and DON'T give him your gun...LOLOLOL (kidding, Rob)
"What does Marcellus Wallace LOOK like?"
See you in May, Dan.......

The results suggest that CDCA5 functions as a critical gene supporting oral squamous cell carcinoma progression and that targeting CDCA5 may be a useful therapeutic strategy for oral squamous cell carcinoma.
phosphorylation plays unexpected roles in regulating the subcellular localization of Sororin.
the C-terminus of Sororin functions as an anchor binding to SA2 (show STAG2 Antibodies), which facilitates other conserved motifs on Sororin to interact with other proteins to regulate sister chromatid cohesion and separation.
We propose that the Prp19 (show PRPF19 Antibodies) complex and the splicing machinery contribute to the establishment of cohesion by promoting Sororin accumulation during S phase, and are, therefore, essential to the maintenance of genome stability.
A transcriptome-wide analysis revealed that SNW1 (show SNW1 Antibodies) or PRPF8 (show PRPF8 Antibodies) depletion affects the splicing of specific introns in a subset of pre-mRNAs, including pre-mRNAs encoding the cohesion protein sororin and the APC (show APC Antibodies)/C subunit APC2.
Targeting p35/Cdk5 signalling via CIP-peptide promotes angiogenesis in hypoxia.
Data show that the MEK (show MAP2K1 Antibodies)-ERK (show EPHB2 Antibodies) pathway regulates cell cycle-related neuronal apoptosis (CRNA) by elevating the levels of cyclin D1 (show CCND1 Antibodies), and the increase in cyclin D1 (show CCND1 Antibodies) attenuates the activation of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (cdk5 (show CDK5 Antibodies)) by its neuronal activator p35 (show ANXA1 Antibodies).
Sororin is phosphorylated by Cdk1/cyclin B at prophase and acts as a docking protein to bring Plk1 into proximity with SA2, resulting in the phosphorylation of SA2 and the removal of cohesin complexes from chromosomal arms.
the interaction of the highly conserved motif at the C terminus of sororin with the cohesin complex (show SMC3 Antibodies) is critical to its ability to mediate sister chromatid cohesion.
Transactivation of CDCA5 and its phosphorylation at Ser209 by ERK (show EPHB2 Antibodies) play an important role in lung cancer proliferation.
Our results define Sororin as a determinant during mouse oocyte meiotic maturation by favoring DNA damage repair and chromosome separation, and thereby, maintaining the genome stability and generating haploid gametes.
The authors show that sororin is essential for embryonic development, cohesion maintenance, and proper chromosome segregation.
Regulator of sister chromatid cohesion in mitosis stabilizing cohesin complex association with chromatin. May antagonize the action of wapal which stimulates cohesin dissociation from chromatin. Cohesion ensures that chromosome partitioning is accurate in both meiotic and mitotic cells and plays an important role in DNA repair. Required for efficient DNA double-stranded break repair (Probable).

It's prom season. And every teen worries about the same thing: finding a date. For some kids, especially those with special needs, finding a date can be brutal.
Jayce Whisenhunt was looking forward to his high school prom – and he even had a pretty date – one who he knew would protect him from bullying should it occur. But they only got as far as the door.
Jayce's date was his sister, Jessica Helling, age 24. The two were unaware of the school's rule that no one could bring a date over 20. "As soon as I said my age, she said, 'Oh no, no, no. You can't come in here. Nobody over the age of 20 can come in here,'" Helling said. "I said, 'But ma'am, he's special needs. He's my little brother. We're siblings. It's not like we're boyfriend and girlfriend.' 'I can't help that ma'am.'"
Jayce could stay, but not his date – so they took a prom picture quickly and left, humiliated and hurt.
In an interview with WSMV News, school official Elise Shelton confirmed that the school does not allow dates over the age of 20 to attend prom. Guests who are 19 and 20 must also be background checked. She said Jayce and his sister never RSVP'd. If they had requested an exception in advance, Shelton says the school could have worked with them.
Their story has quickly gone viral on social media, and the community is organizing another special prom for Jayce
June 10, complete with dinner, a DJ and red carpet His sister will be prom queen.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Posted by anonymous
In 2014, I was rear ended by a large truck at a stop light. That night I posted on a website for advice, to see if a lawyer was necessary (totaled car and neck injury). Michael responded within hours, and we met a few days later. Michael was sure to walk me through the process, and answered every question I had. I have never needed an attorney before, so I was a bit unsure of what I was doing at times, but he made sure that I thoroughly understood what was going on. We had to wait for settlement for a year because of my physical therapy, as we needed to be sure that I was as healed as possible. Once I was cleared, he wasted no time with negotiating my settlement. Again, I've never had another attorney before Michael, but he certainly made this situation work out for me.
Posted by Patricia
When I first meet Micheal Sensor, my first Lawyer left me. I felt scared and alone and not sure where to go or who to trust. Mr. Sensor made me feel comfortable and introduced me to everyone in his office. He assured me that he would help me and stand by me as long as it takes.
It is now 12 years later. I can not begin to explain how or what you will face when you get injured at work.
I can say that you will need help and a Lawyer who will be there for you. You both have to trust each other for there is so much that can happens. So if you need help and I am only speaking from my experience with Mr Sensor and the 12 years we have work together on my case. I personally would call Mr Sensor and talk to him first. I trust and believe that Mr Sensor is one of the best Lawyers you will find.
Posted by Joseph
I had a problem with my Home Owners Insurance after a devastating fire. Mr Sensor was able to recoup more money for me after much debate with my Insurance Company.
I would recommend Mike for anyone who has a similar problem.

The ship is old. Staterooms small. Was upset with a couple workers, Casio employees not the friendliest. My husband was upset that he couldn't have breakfast in the set down dining room because he had no sleeves but he could go sleeveless in the same dining room in the evening. Made no sense.

Hello & welcome!!
We're certainly glad to have you here, but understand that there are only a handful of active members remaining. Hopefully some of them will check in!
I'm Dan, 67 pushing 68 and had polio when I was 2, affecting most of my body, but not leaving me obviously disabled. In fact, I didn't even figure out that I'd had polio until 15 years ago when the PPS caught up with me and the neuro at Mayo said I had "classical old polio signs". Then I worked out that my dad had never told my mom what I had, and he only sort of confessed this after I was telling him about my diagnosis. That's the way things worked back then, if you had "non-paralytic" polio.
I've been struggling with the condition since, compounded by a couple of others. I have worked out some useful "tricks" along the way, however, to cope with the symptoms.

Did you know that August 3rd is National Mustard Day? Fitting, since we just had National Hot Dog day a couple of weeks ago! And I'm happy to celebrate the ONLY (for me) condiment that goes on a plain hot dog!
You could celebrate by visiting the National Mustard Museum near Madison, WI. This year's visitors can expect a fun-filled day for the entire family when National Mustard Day 2013 kicks off at 10 a.m. and festivities continue all day until 4 p.m.
National Mustard Day 2013 Activities include:
- Opening ceremonies with Dr. Mustard
- Onsite appearances by the French's® Mustard Man
- Live music by the Red Hot Horn Dawgs
- Free Hot Dogs (*mustard required)
- Mustard Games that raise money for Restoring Hope Transplant House
- Magic by Wayne the Wizard
- Klements onsite grilling brats
- Oscar Mayer Weinermobile
- FREE Mustard sampling
Too far to go? Why not create a mustard worthy menu for the entire family with great recipe ideas from French's, America's #1 selling mustard.
Here are a couple of recipes from www.frenchsfoods.com. Visit to find more!
Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
4 (6 oz.) salmon fillets Salt and pepper to taste
1/3 cup FRENCH'S® Dijon Mustard
3 tbsp. olive oil
3 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. minced garlic
1. SEASON salmon with salt and pepper. Place into greased baking dish, skin side down.
2. MIX remaining ingredients. Reserve 1/3 cup sauce. Spread remaining sauce over salmon pieces.
3. BAKE salmon at 400°F for 10 to 15 min. until salmon is cooked through. Serve with the reserved mustard sauce.
Makes 4 servings
Prep Time:10 mins
Cook Time:35 mins
8 oz. uncooked elbow macaroni (4 cups cooked)
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can CAMPBELL'S® Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup
1 ½ cups milk
2 to 3 tbsp. FRENCH'S® Classic Yellow® Mustard
3 cups (12 oz.) shredded American or Cheddar cheese
2 tbsp. butter, cut into pieces
1. COOK macaroni according to package directions using shortest cooking time. Drain and place into greased 2-qt. baking dish.
2. MIX soup, milk and mustard. Pour over pasta and stir in 2 cups cheese. Top with butter.
3. BAKE at 350°F for 30 min. or until hot and bubbly. Stir. Top with remaining cheese. Bake 5 min. until cheese melts.
Makes 6 servings
Variation: substitute other types of shredded cheese such as Jack, Mexican blend or sharp Cheddar.
One of the reasons I highlighted their Mac & Cheese recipe is that I've always added a touch of mustard to my own Mac & Cheese recipe! It adds that little extra zing. Other family recipes where we use mustard are my daughter's Potato Salad (people rave for it) and my own Southern Pulled Pork with Gold Sauce. I've been using mustard for cooking since I was a kid. I'm pretty sure we could have a full dinner where every dish contains some flavor of French's mustard!
Enjoy Saturday celebrating the Classic Yellow Mustard that was first introduced in 1904 at the St. Louis World's Fair!

Live on Skysports 1: Mon 17.30: It's 12/5 with Skybet to finish all square as Birmingham and West Ham lock horns in the Championship.
Having both dropped down from the Premiership last season, Birmingham and West Ham will have expected to be involved in the Championship promotion shake-up but ahead of the pair's St Andrews showdown, only the second-placed Hammers fall into that category while the Blues are down in 14th, albeit having played a couple of games less.
Nevertheless, it's Birmingham's away form that sees them languishing in the lower half of the table and they remain unbeaten at home, so punters shouldn't read too much into positions ahead of this one.
Indeed, Chris Hughton's men are actually slight favourites at 6/4 with Totesport but Sam Allardyce's side, a 2/1 shot at , have picked up seven wins in eleven on the road so they're difficult to oppose as well.
Subsequently, Skybet's 12/5 chalked against the draw is the best bet but with stalemate flutters always a risk, punters might be better served by being bold and backing a 1-1 scoreline at 11/2 with Boylesports.
A couple of home wins stand out across the rest of the coupon. Firstly, leaders Southampton have a formidable home record and Paddy Power post 1/2 against them racking up another St Mary's Stadium success at Crystal Palace's expense while Reading, fresh from their triumph at Leeds, are 4/5 via Ladbrokes as they host Brighton.
Recommended Bets:
Birmingham v West Ham to finish 1-1 – 11/2 (Boylesports)
Double on Southampton and Reading – 17/10 (Betfred)
Compare all Championship odds and bet at the best price.
