Carlos Alfredo
Update on Carlos AlfredoCarlos Alfredo lives with his life partner and their children in his own house. He grows corn and beans. He has been farming for many years already and he has a lot of experience in it that allows him to obtain the best harvests and always do quality work. The land he cultivates is fertile and suitable for sowing. It is close to the town where he lives, and he trades in all the surrounding areas. He already has a lot of customers, since people prefer him because he always has what they need at accessible prices and provides unequalled service. Carlos is a man who is dedicated to his work and is always ready to better himself. He knows that with all of his effort and dedication he will achieve the success he wants so much. In the last harvest, he had a lot of losses, and he wants to recover and invest. That is why he is asking Integral for a loan that will allow him to buy cattle, corn and bean seeds, fertilizer, herbicide, and tools. Carlos Alfredo has good payment references and is very responsible. He feels completely thankful for the help, so he promises to make his loan repayments within the established time frame, and at the same time he will give his family a better life.
Previous Loan DetailsCarlos Alfredo, 50, lives with his wife and children. He is a hard worker dedicated to his family. He has worked his whole life in the fields growing corn and beans. Like all farmers he goes through the same process every year: preparing the land, planting the seeds, harvest the crops, and later ... More from Carlos Alfredo's previous loan »
Additional Information
More information about this loan
This loan is part of Apoyo Integral's program to help subsistence farmers located in high-risk regions of El Salvador, including coastal strips, river banks, and volcano fault lines. The program, which offers reduced interest rates, targets farmers who don't qualify for formal funding due to their low-income and geographical risk. By funding this loan, you are helping Apoyo and a local non-governmental organization extend risk-tolerant credit to even more farmers.
About Apoyo IntegralApoyo Integral (Apoyo) is a nonprofit organization offering financial products that enable clients to increase their working capital, purchase fixed assets, buy and remodel homes, expand agricultural business and more. The organization's target group is businessmen and women who have already established their businesses but need financial support to strengthen or expand them.
Like Kiva, Apoyo is committed to empowering women involved in business activities in rural areas. Kiva lenders' funds will be used to expand these services to an even greater number of poor clients in rural areas.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Buyers haven't re-embraced big, gas-thirsty SUVs. But several measures show waning enthusiasm for fuel-sipping.
That's probably because motorists have accepted and absorbed higher fuel prices and no longer fear shortages, says Philip Reed, consumer advice editor at car-shopping site Edmunds.com. "People will pay almost anything for gas. What freaks them out is when they just flat can't get it," he says. Today's prices are about 60 cents a gallon less than the September peak. "They don't like it, but it isn't as bad," he says. (Photo gallery: Popular small cars)
Among the signs that conservation is less important than it was a month ago:
• This week's government report on gasoline use says that we're getting ever-closer to burning as much gasoline as we did last year, when prices were typically less than $2 a gallon. The nationwide average for regular now is about $2.45, according to travel club AAA.
Gasoline consumption the past four weeks was just 1.7% lower than it was a year earlier, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. It had been down as much as 2.8% after Hurricane Katrina disrupted energy operations in the Gulf of Mexico and sent gasoline prices to a nationwide average peak of about $3.07.
• Three popular Internet car-shopping sites report notable drops in users seeking information on gas-electric hybrids and other fuel-efficient cars.
Edmunds.com says interest peaked Aug. 29 when Hurricane Katrina hit. That week, 19,500 users went to Edmunds' page on fuel economy. But that's dropped to about 3,000 views a week, the same as it was in early August.
Kelley Blue Book's kbb.com reports that the proportion of site users interested in information about hybrids and economy cars dropped a few percentage points each of the last two months. It wouldn't give details because its survey results aren't final.
Cars.com, partly owned by Gannett, which publishes USA TODAY, says searches for fuel-efficient used cars have fallen, too. The biggest decline is in searches for used Toyota Prius hybrids.
But that doesn't mean interest in fuel economy has vanished, Cars.com says: "Honda's fuel-efficient models drove more e-mail inquiries to dealers than any other used vehicles" in a recent survey period.
The switch shouldn't be read as a wholesale return to gas guzzlers, says AAA spokesman Geoff Sundstrom. "We'd be a little surprised if consumers turned on a dime — in this case 50 cents — and went back to big SUVs; $2.50 a gallon, on average, is still awfully high for most people," he says.

Toxic Red Tides: USC Scientist Tracks Neurotoxin-Producing Algae
Harmful algal blooms that affect seafood on the rise in California
With toxic algal blooms — which can increase the amount of harmful toxins in the shellfish that California residents consume — ramping up in frequency and severity locally, scientists in USC Dornsife have developed a new algae monitoring method in hopes of one day being able to predict when and where toxic "red tides" will occur.
"We have, what we fear, is a hotspot here for some types of toxic algal blooms," said David Caron, professor of biological sciences in USC Dornsife.
Caron's lab developed a quantitative assay, a procedure for measuring the quantity of specific types of algae in water samples taken from the coast. For the past four years, he used it in Redondo Beach's King Harbor to monitor the Alexandrium catenella algae, which produces saxitoxins, a group of neurotoxins that Caron called "one of the most toxic biologically produced chemicals in the world."
"Just like other species, microscopic species conduct warfare — chemical warfare," Caron said. Saxitoxins are thought to help A. catenella keep from being eaten and to out-compete other, similar organisms.
Problems with A. catenella occur because the algae are food for clams, mussels, anchovies and sardines.
"That's when we get into trouble, when it gets into something we would eat," Caron said. In humans, the ingestion of saxitoxins causes paralytic shellfish poisoning.
Caron said that the California Department of Public Health does "a great job of keeping us safe" through water sampling, mussel sampling, and regular closures of shellfish harvesting during certain high-risk times of the year.
Over the past 10 years, however, a different type of algae that produces the neurotoxin domoic acid has been increasing on the west coast. Domoic acid produces amnesic shellfish poisoning in humans, and has been the cause of thousands of marine animal deaths off California during the past decade.
The first documented case of animals being sickened by algal blooms in this region occurred in the 1990s. Since 2003, such events have occurred almost annually in a worrying increase of such blooms, Caron said.
The cause of the increase in toxic algae blooms remains the subject of speculation. This could be the result of an ongoing change in the ecosystem off of California's coast, or it could be that scientists are witnessing a cyclical phenomenon. Extensive monitoring of toxic algal blooms is relatively new in the region, Caron said.
Caron said he hopes that his new assay will help scientists — not just to spot the blooms, but to monitor the changes in environmental conditions that lead to such blooms. In particular, he's hoping to discover what causes a harmful species of algae to bloom as opposed to a benign species.
Caron's research, headed by postdoctoral investigator Marie-Eve Garneau of the University of Zurich, was published online on September 16 by Applied and Environmental Microbiology, was supported by funding from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Fonds québécois de recherche sur la nature et les technologies, and the Swiss National Science Fund.
Fellow authors include Astrid Schnetzer, assistant professor (research) of biological sciences; biological sciences graduate students Adriane C. Jones and Erica L. Seubert; and Peter D. Coutway of the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences.

But after the Jets selected Smith in the second round of the 2013 NFL Draft, Idzik wouldn't say if Sanchez would remain on the roster through training camp — or even throughout organized team activities.The Jets, though, have no reason to part ways with Sanchez at this point.

"I wish to reiterate that I am thrilled with the phone tech service you provide. Yesterday I worked with David A., and he walked me through things I could not even imagine how to do regarding getting new items installed on my blog site. He is courteous, very, very knowledgeable and especially tolerant of my hearing problem. I promote you guys every chance I get with my social media contacts who are writers and authors. Thank you, David, you are a superhero in my estimate."

Nick Wilson Said:
I wanted to express my extreme satisfaction with the level of customer service I received today from one of your associates, Sommer H., over chat. From my interaction with your customer service associate, I could tell that your staff are trained very well, know their product and company policies, and are helpful and polite. It is also good to see that, unlike many other companies, you appreciate the value of customer retention as well as new customer acquisition. Based on my experience this morning, I am happy to renew my web hosting services with your company for another 3 years.
Liesel Lund Said:
Clarke was very helpful to take the time yesterday and do the SSL install that others had failed to do. He waited and made sure we had everything done. It was great to finally get someone who would take the initiative to make it happen, rather than having me put in yet another help ticket.
James White Said:
I just wanted to, once again, sing the praises of your magnificent support team. Whether it is by chat, or by phone, your support team knocks it out of the park each and every time, without fail. Today it was Rachel P. who was a support all-star, but your whole team deserves equal accolades. I am delighted to be a HUB customer and I appreciate all that you do to be number one in customer service. Thank you.
Carla Butler Said:
Just wanted to leave some feedback for your CS agent Shea R. As always, I received perfect customer service via your online chat, which enabled me to take advantage of your current offer/discount code without needing to make an international call. Having bought numerous hosting accounts with yourselves, I am again pleased and impressed with the speed, efficiency and politeness of your staff to enable me to start building a new website for my current employer.
Patricia Thompson Said:
I was having a problem replying to emails and received failure messages when attempting to log in to CPanel. (I manage my emails through CPanel, rather than through an email client.) Adam W. and Casey B. were not only very responsive, but they also treated me and my problem with respect. That was greatly appreciated. My email started working again today without any additional action on my part, but it was good to know that your support people could provide possible courses of action within a short period of time. My thanks to them both!
Jason Byrd Said:
I just wanted to forward on my thanks in my recent and first troubleshooting request. My site crashed and Abraham S. had the issue isolated and resolved faster than I could have ever hoped. Also, he went far beyond just what I requested. I was of the belief I just needed a server reboot however he identified a bad access file, fixed it and notified me of what he had done to resolve the issue. He was a great credit to Web Hosting Hub and I can't thank him enough for getting us back online so quickly. I haven't needed for much but when I did, he was there and this gives me great confidence for the future.
Celine LeBlanc Said:
I just wanted to let you know about the wonderful experience I had with Aubrey M. Although in the beginning he could not find my file, it turned out that it was my fault for not giving him the main domain name. He was able to help me within 5 minutes of an issue I had been struggling with for the last hour and a half. Thanks, Web Hosting Hub for having a really knowledgeable group of support staff 24/7. Now that I am in Spain, I really appreciate being able to reach someone despite of the time difference.
Karen Bozvay Said:
I want to let you know that Harry J. was a tremendous help to me today. As every end user will tell you, "I thought I knew what I was doing", only to discover that I did not know- after the fact-of course. He assisted me in moving my installation to the top level instead of the sub directory that I originally installed to. In the process of trying to fix this myself I mucked up a few important files. And now everything is fixed and I couldn't be more grateful for Harry's help.
Kevin Johnson Said:
I just wanted to let you know how awesome Harry J. is! I just signed up yesterday and could not, for the life of me, figure out how to setup Wordpress without messing up our current site. Instead of just giving me directions, Harry J. actually did it all for me. I am now 100% set up for success! Please give him whatever your company's version of a gold star is - he deserves it!
Clara Monroe Said:
I had an issue with my custom 404 error page loading today and started a chat with Malcom M. He was able to quickly resolve the problem and seemed happy to do so. He gave updates as to the amount of time it would take to resolve as well as check to ensure I was able to see the page before ending the chat. I just wanted to say thanks and let you know how much I appreciated his help.
Coleman Armes Said:
Adam C. was very helpful. I am a first time blogger and was very confused with how to set one up and the whole process. He was patient with me the whole time and gave me a discount. I was also very impressed with the fast customer service too. I wasn't on the line very long and immediately got help from Adam.
Ken Purell Said:
I want to take this opportunity to express my satisfaction with one of your support team web hosting consultants (Sean B.). Sean was able to formulate an email while explaining to me each link that I would receive via that email reference to changing my domain link from GoDaddy.com. While getting started is challenging, it is your great staff that makes things much, much easier to not only follow but to lock in those instructions for future use. Thanks to Sean B. for a job well done!!!
Jessy Jepson Said:
Brett made me feel much more at ease with the sites that I am working on transferring over. Thank god for knowledgeable and friendly tech support people, definitely one of the reasons that I am changing host providers. Thank you for having people like this working for your company. I look forward to having a long relationship with Web Hosting Hub. Thanks again. :-)
Jean Mayer Said:
Mike R. did a wonderful job in helping me with my questions and getting me started with WordPress. It was a pleasure having him as a consultant. I hope all of your consultants are as pleasant and helpful as he was.
Chai Nakpiban Said:
I recently had a very good sale chat experience with Nick Thurman. Via the Web Hosting Hub Chat, he was able to get me in on a promotional 3 year deal. In all my years of chat-based support, I haven't ever received efficient service with accurate information. Not only was Nick able to get me signed up but he also was able to answer my technical questions regarding transferring over my existing websites. I look forward to continued great service with Web Hosting Hub.
Vicki Lee Said:
I just wanted to say I couldn't be more happy to be with Web Hosting Hub. When I was researching what host to use, yours came up with very high marks. I mainly selected Web Hosting Hub due to the up-time percentage (it doesn't go down) and the ease of use. But since then, when I recommend Web Hosting Hub to anyone who asks, the main reason is the customer support.
Alan Addinall Said:
I had a problem with my primary email address and contacted the online help by chat. I was quickly and efficiently helped by Alicia H. I was wonderfully surprised by the great ease and competent help I received from her. I had another issue which was also sorted by another one of your staff named Malcolm M. It is always a great experience to be helped by people who know what they are doing and who can help the less experienced clients they sometimes have to deal with.
John Bissen Said:
Hi - I worked with Samuel G this morning to troubleshoot why my domain was not registered. He was able to figure out what was going on and get to a successful resolution. In the last year I have contacted support a few times and appreciate how easy and fast it is to get a hold of Web Hosting Hub support for help.
John DeAscentis Said:
Jhaimesen was a great help in getting my account set up! After talking to him via chat to confirm whether my order had gone through, he got me on the phone and got my account set up quickly and easily. He also sent me the info I needed to get started with configuration and WordPress, and answered my questions about domain transfer from GoDaddy. I picked Web Hosting Hub because it was well reviewed online, with many reviews mentioning great customer service, and Jhaimesen proved that reputation correct.
Kinga Mila Said:
I'd like to thank very much Adam Block for his assistance. I found his response prompt and VERY helpful. Judging the situation I was in he's done everything possible to solve it on the spot ( tried to manually over the phone accept payment for hosting a website). Due to continuous problems with my card he advised me to contact sales department at appropriate time. Such great customer service makes me feel good about my website hosting company choice.
Resha Jazrawi Said:
I just wanted to say thank you for the fantastic support I received from Alex K. She was very helpful, courteous and warm in her emails and I felt the quality of service I received was extremely high and reflects very well on your company. Many thanks!
Yvette Durham Said:
I just wanted to say I am so grateful for Shea helping me out starting up my blog. Shea was so efficient, answered my questions right away and helped me traverse the world of blogging that I really know nothing about. Great team member!
Patricia Brown Said:
Jonathan H. was wonderful. He quickly sorted out the problem and got the IP address whitelisted. I wish all my tech support was this fast and painless. Polite, good sense of humor... and that's tough in a job where people are probably yelling at you for a lot of the day.
Brian Cox Said:
I just wanted to let you know that I was super impressed with how quickly Robert B. was able to get my website back up and running. You have a great team and I am glad that I chose to host with Web Hosting Hub. Thank you for providing excellent service and I will continue to point all of my friends in need of a website to your company.
Stacy Ebert Said:
This is an email just to say that I recently had a chat session for technical support with Malcolm M., and he was a great help to me!!! He stepped in and took care of my problem very quickly! This is the kind of support I need when time is short. He saved me time and a headache today! Thanks for the support!
Melinda Martinez Said:
I contacted technical support today because I was having problems finding out how to install plugins on my website. I had the privilege of getting to work with Harry J. He was very informative and knew exactly what I was wanting to do. He was able to walk me through the process as well as send me a tutorial link for future reference. He made the process very stress free and enjoyable. I have never had a bad experience with the support staff here at Web Hosting Hub, everyone is always willing to help and extremely knowledgeable. I will continue recommending this company as the top notch hosting company it is. I look forward to working with Web Hosting Hub for many years.
Nikola Misic Said:
My name is Nikola, and yesterday I bought a hosting package at Web Hosting Hub. I would look to put in a good word for your employees Simone and Mike R. who were very kind and helpful during the process. This is the second time I bought hosting from you guys, your services and the way you treat customers are great! Keep up the good work!
Becky O'Haire Said:
I was just chatting with Harry J. for technical support. This is day one of my first blog and i am utterly clueless. He was very helpful and patient despite my complete lack of understanding and he waited with me until I managed to change the setting (which turned out to be ridiculously easy). I'm quite happy with my decision to go with your company right now, i'd be lost without the support.
Scott Clevenger Said:
I have a domain and hosting with your company, and I had a technical problem. I used the chat support and was connected with Sean L., who promptly fixed my problem when I was unable to fix it myself after hours of searching. I just wanted to say this was a fantastic experience and I would give my highest rating of feedback to Sean L. for his knowledge and professionalism.
Robert Gambino Said:
I wish to let you know that you have an excellent employee in your customer tech support area. Sean L. helped me out in live chat today and I can't tell you how valuable his insight and straight forward help was. I am tasked with being a web page administrator for a small non profit charitable organization, but I am NOT web page savvy at all. Your folks have always helped me out and solved my problems quickly. Sean L. was no exception to this excellent service.
Steve Hogan Said:
I just got off of chat with Sean L. He totally saved my tail on a database problem that I inflicted on myself. Without his help, I was probably looking at 8 hours of work. He went the extra mile and I really appreciate it.
Jim White Said:
I wish to commend your great service department as they, once again, handled my issue with a tremendous amount of knowledge and professionalism. This call, it was Jonathan H. who was the support "rock-star," however I expect, and receive, the same exemplary support each and every time I call. I'm not sure who is in charge over there, but don't change a thing because you already have it dialed-in. Thank you again from a very satisfied customer.
Gene Wolf Said:
I just wanted to send out Kudos to Jason A., and I believe a Robert you have working for you. I have been tracking down high CPU usage for the past couple of days and Jason has been very professional and responsive in answering my e-mails. He's also responsible, not in a bad way, for our upgrading our plan to Dynamo. We're still tracking down some spikes in usage but I believe, because of the help from your staff, we have a handle on what's going on.
Katrina Avant Said:

Virginia History
The library's Virginiana Room and other historic research centers, sites, and organizations need volunteers. Come to the Fredericksburg Area Museum's 2009 Volunteer Job Fair on Monday, April 6, to learn more about volunteer opportunities in history and other fields such as health and human services, education, environment, and the arts. For more information on opportunities to volunteer your time to help with preserving the past, check out our article, Helping with History.
Lake Anna State Park is a favorite local destination for campers, boaters, and families who just want to spend a summer day at the lakeside beach. For most of us, the way to the lake runs down Lawyers Road. These days, there's not much to take in with the view from this one-lane road, which passes through as quiet a stretch of Spotsylvania countryside as remains in the 21st century. But in centuries past, the western part of the county was the scene for tribal wars, slave labor, religious awakenings, whiskey barrel politics, gold mining, and Civil War armies on the march.
This year's Fredericksburg Agricultural Fair runs from July 31 to August 9, 2015. There will be many things to see and do, but the farm animals, homebaked goodies, and homegrown vegetables are always popular.
Can't make it to the fairgrounds this year? Some other places to go visit the animals are George Washington's Birthplace, Westmoreland Berry Farm, Maymont, and the Claude Moore Colonial Farm. Take along some farm animals coloring pages to pass the time on your trip.
Wherever you go to see these cute critters, grab some books and videos from the library to get in the moo-d for animal fun:
Fifty members of the Patawomeck tribe will recreate one of their villages at the library. On the front lawn, you'll smell venison and fish roasting on an open fire, hear live Patawomeck music, explore a longhouse, sit in a 13-foot canoe, and see Patawomeck dancing. You and your family can pound cornmeal, play Indian football, play drums, and meet a Pocahontas reenactor. Inside the theatre, you'll see artifacts that are 10,000 years old, learn how regalia is made, hear Patawomeck storytelling, watch a movie, and make crafts.
Save the date: Saturday, August 1, from 9:00-3:00 at Headquarters Library. Rain or shine.
The CRRL is proud to partner with area historians, museums, tourism agencies, organizations, churches, and scholars to provide programs and information that can promote understanding of the events that exploded here in the 1860s and their far-reaching impact.
Over the last four years the community has been invited to commemorate—through lectures, re-enactments, exhibits, film screenings, and musical performances—the extraordinary fact that we were a war zone from 1861-1865.
To the Europeans, the West was a great unknown. Many people believed that over the western sea there was nothing but darkness and danger. Yet throughout the past, travelers tried to find out what was on the other side of the water. There are very few traces of those first explorers. They lived in times when most people could not write, so stories of their discoveries were passed down as tales told around hearth fires. Sometimes they were believed, sometimes not. Russell Freedman's Who Was First? Discovering the Americas looks at the evidence behind this puzzle.
In 1852, Fredericksburg business men were concerned with the failure of the Rappahannock Canal (see Fredericksburg Times, Jan., 1978), the impassability of the turnpike, the incomplete state of the plank road and the loss of county trade to the Alexandria markets via the railroad.
Follow Marlborough Point Road down to the eastern tip of Stafford County, and you will pass by lots of new housing mushrooming into the forests and fields that were once favored by both the Native Americans and colonial settlers. This section of the county is home to not just centuries of local history but millennia.
The year 2002 celebrated the 250th anniversary of the foundation of "George Washington's Mother Lodge." According to the authors of The History of Freemasonry in Virginia, "Fredericksburg Lodge No. 4 stands out as one of the brightest Lodges in the early history of Freemasonry in Virginia." Since 1752 it has maintained a continuous Masonic presence in Fredericksburg. Many of the town's prominent citizens have been members, and many of its prominent buildings have Masonic cornerstones.
"Fredericksburg; may it increase and its commerce flourish." --Toast by George Washington, 1784
Fredericksburg-area residents and visitors have the opportunity to walk in the footsteps of Washington and Lincoln. Both presidents were entertained lavishly across the river at Chatham estate, but under very different circumstances.
To Washington, this small town of Fredericksburg was his childhood home, populated by many friends and relatives. His sojourns here are noted in his diary with a pleasant familiarity. Lincoln's view of Fredericksburg could hardly be of greater contrast, for Fredericksburg was a Union-occupied town, and although the president was certainly welcomed by his own men, he was not welcomed by Confederate townspeople. In the chill of that December, Fredericksburg would become the site of one of the Union's worst defeats.

Q&A with Paul Brand: Driver wonders if antilock brakes are all that effective
QUESTION: I have two cars with ABS — a 1999 Buick Regal and 2013 Toyota Corolla. I am wondering if ABS is really the best way for stopping on an icy road. This past week, I had several occasions where I tried to stop as I approached a stop sign, but when applying and maintaining brake pressure the ABS engaged but did little to stop the car as I kept sliding. Then I did the old-fashioned pumping of the brakes with much better results. The ABS seemed to not work well on icy roads compared to the pumping technique. Is this only my experience or am I using ABS incorrectly?
ANSWER: Considering that antilock braking systems are capable of recognizing wheel lockup and modulating/releasing hydraulic pressure to restore rotation of the wheel many times per second — much, much faster than the human foot can accomplish — ABS should be more effective than pumping the brakes in slippery conditions.
But there may be mitigating factors. First, if the anxiety of not stopping as quickly as the situation warrants causes the driver to continue to press harder and harder on the brake pedal, the ABS tends to cycle more slowly because of the much larger releases of hydraulic pressure required to restore wheel rotation. These much deeper modulations will increase stopping distance measurably.
Recognize what provides the "best" stopping traction on ice — it's that moment just before and as the wheel/tire begins to lock up. At that instant, the tread blocks on the tire surface are at the edge of their maximum traction, just before sliding. Since the ABS system can recognize and release hydraulic pressure at that precise moment much faster than the human foot, ABS should stop better on ice.
Is it possible the pumping action can be more effective? Not in my experience, but perhaps in a scenario where the locked wheel/tire is actually melting the ice under the tread. This is entirely speculative on my part — just trying to envision a scenario where pumping the brakes might be more effective.
But here's the bottom line: Neither ABS nor pumping the brakes can overcome the laws of physics. Experiencing either action is confirmation of going too fast and/or braking too late for existing conditions. On glare ice, I still want an ABS system to minimize the consequences of my mistake.
QUESTION: I have a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. Since I purchased it, the catalytic converter makes a ticking noise when it gets hot. I used to have a 2012 Sonata that never had this issue — any thoughts?
ANSWER: The ticking sound from the exhaust as it cools down is completely normal. The sound is generated by the extraordinarily hot metal in the forward sections of the exhaust, including the converter and its heat shield, contracting as it cools. No worries. And I think you'll find that this ticking during cool-down will fade as you accumulate more miles on the vehicle.
QUESTION: My daughter has a 2004 Saturn Ion that has a problem starting when overnight temperatures drop to zero or below. She turns the key and it just goes "click, click, click," or starts to turn over then stops. She lets it sit for 15-20 minutes and then it starts right away. During warm weather it starts fine. Can you help?
ANSWER: Check the battery terminals, connections and cables. The "click, click, click" is typically a sign that the battery is weak or connections are so poor that not enough amperage reaches the starter motor to crank over the engine. The electrical resistance through poor connections during several starting attempts may actually warm up the connections and battery enough to enable an engine start.
Load-test the battery itself. An aged battery operating in subzero temperatures may well be the culprit.
QUESTION: How does really cold weather affect hybrid vehicles? I am thinking of buying one but not if they don't work well in really cold weather. Also, what if I go south in the winter — can my hybrid just sit in the garage for several weeks without any problem?
ANSWER: With a gas/electric vehicle, expect to see more "gas" operation in cold weather. More energy is needed to operate the vehicle and warm its interior. So the car will likely rely more heavily on its internal combustion engine and use more fuel. But even with the lower efficiency and reduced "hybrid benefits," the vehicle will still "work" reliably. And parking a hybrid for weeks, even months, won't be any more of an issue than with a conventional vehicle.

In the New York City Municipal Archives WNYC Sound Collection, we hear the voices of presidents, dignitaries, world leaders, artistic revolutionaries, musical geniuses, luminaries of the literati, and cultural icons. The sounds of a city and a nation are captured through nearly a century of transformations, tribulations, and triumphs. WNYC microphones were present when Admiral Byrd returned from his historic flight over the North Pole in 1926 and when Colonel Charles Lindbergh returned from his solo flight to Paris the following year. Perhaps best known are New York City Mayor F. H. La Guardia's weekly Talk to the People broadcasts over WNYC throughout World War II.

Review | Dates to Watch For | Follow-Up | U.S. Economic Calendar | Consensus Estimates | Coming Earnings | Coming U.S. Auctions
Don't look now, but the bean counters of the world think we're in for a bumpy ride in international trade and, consequently, in growth.
Even as the International Monetary Fund was cutting its forecast for global growth to 3.3% this year from the 4% it had predicted in September, a fourth-quarter survey of accountants world-wide found the profession increasingly pessimistic about global trade, and looking for a another global downturn this year.
The news in the latest report by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants and the Institute of Management Accountants is that the decline in confidence plaguing developed markets has started to spread to faster-growing emerging markets.
Downbeat: Finance professionals the world over are pessimistic about trade and see another downturn. William Waitzman for Barron's
The gloom now pervades even the Asia-Pacific region, including Singapore and Hong Kong. Manos Schizas, a senior policy advisor with the ACCA, expressed surprise at "how quickly confidence fell" in the region.
"Overall, the stage appears to be set for a renewed global economic downturn in 2012," the report concluded.
That's no small thing. The report, which has been published quarterly for three years, anticipated the momentum loss in the recovery and the current slowdown. The latest of its surveys is the first to include responses from the U.S.-centric IMA.
Still, there is one somewhat bright spot. "Perceptions of how the global economy is doing are deteriorating a lot faster than perceptions of how individual businesses are doing," says Schizas. Negative sentiment, he said, is factored into the fundamentals.

Historical Traveler Reviews Washington Marriott at Metro Center Washington DC
Great Hotel
I don't know about all of the negative reviews that this hotel has been getting. My wife and I stayed here and loved it. The rooms were clean, the staff friendly and it was centrally located near major sites. The only advice I can give you is bring good walking shoes or spend alot of money on cabs. But overall this hotel is one of the best in the Marriott chains.
WW2 Memorial Visit was memorable
Wow. We had great service at this hotel. Loved the location, and couldn't beat the access to the metro stations. Within walking distance to most attractions. Beautiful lobby. The concierge and the reception staff were very patient and accommodating. A terriffic gift shop. Great buffet breakfast and friendly wait staff. It was beginning its renovation the day we left. Would be great to see it now.
What a Trip!
We were so thrilled with this hotel, and so sad to leave. The people were so nice! We especially enjoyed Sacha, at the Security checkpoint (which is nice, you have to show your room key to get on to the elevators). My eight year old took great pride in leading the way around the hotel and all of the employees made us feel so welcome and at home. Our special requests at the desk were met with a smile and taken care of immediately. The pool area was really nice and well kept. The whole place was lovely and our room was very clean and comfortable. When we asked for a little refrigerator for our room (which was free I might add) it was at our door within ten minutes!
This was our first trip to D.C. and our favorite vacation ever! The Metro system is fabulous and so easy to maneuver. And the elevator to take you down to the Metro station is about ten quick steps outside the hotel door, in case of rain. The people of D.C. are so friendly! We'd be standing in the station, looking over our Metro map and without fail, every time someone would ask us if we needed help. A great hotel - we'd stay there again in a second - and a great city!
Great experience
We wanted a hotel we could get to easily via public transportation, that was walking distance to the Mall and reasonably priced. Though we had concerns after reading negative comments here, they completely vanished upon check in. The lobby is beautiful, the staff professional, the room was nice and clean, and Dorie, the concierge, is delightful and extremely helpful. The only surprise was that the hotel is not actually connected to the underground Metro Center station, we had to walk a block outside in the pouring rain.
Pleasant Stay
This is a beautiful hotel located on top of the Metro, which made it great for taking sight-seeing trips. Our room was very quiet and clean. The bathroom was big and bright, but the tile in the corners of the bathroom floor were cracked and a little dirty. Nice desk area with internet connection. We had a very pleasant stay.
Gratefully Surprised
After buying this hotel on Priceline, I was nervous after reading the majority opinion on this hotel, as posted on TripAdvisor. Nevertheless, and the reason I write, is to hopefully put in a very good word for this hotel and its management. First impressions are worth a bundle, and my first impression was that this is a classy place, and I found this to be the case. On a week long trip in the area and stays at other 3 star Marriotts, I saw nothing close to the ambiance Metro Center created with fresh cut flowers and plants throughout the lobby and restaurant area. The hotel was totally clean, no problems there, and I do not exagerate when I say that the staff was over the top nice. My 14 year old nephew commented--"they pay these people to be nice..." Yeah, he's learning. Great locale next to the Metro, with the blue, red and orange lines right there. Again, I did priceline and got a great deal, but the hotel was worth $150 at the least... Restaurant was good too...
try the peppered salmon.
Adequate but dirty and disappointing
I will start by saying that I am a loyal Marriott Rewards member and have never been to a bad (or even average) Marriott - until I stayed at the Marriott Metro Center. On the positive side, the hotel has a great location - the hotel front door is about 1/10 mile from the MetroCenter Metro Stop (where the Red, Orange and Green lines converge). The staff was also very pleasant. The rooms all have high speed internet, and there is a convenient Starbucks franchisee in the lobby (open morning hours only). Other than the location, staff & a few conveniences, however, the Marriott Metro Center is barely adequate. The hotel room was really dirty - the sheets (both double beds) had blood spots (so disgusting). The desk in the room was so small that it was not usable for doing any work. The bathroom looked like a Motel 6 bathroom. The room was absolutely tiny. The walls of the rooms are paper thin - everything that goes on in the room next door can be heard. There does happen to be a tremendous amount of fitness equipment in the hotel gym - but the gym is not well maintained at all (dirty). Overall, I would avoid this hotel, especially at the $200+ weekday rates and the $125-$150 weekend rates (there are MUCH better values in DC).
Stayed here in August 2003. It was our second time in Washington, DC.
We had stayed at the Grand Hyatt around the corner before. This hotel was $99 a night for a special deal that included subway passes and a guidebook. The lobby was very nice, although on the small side. The minute we got off the elevator the disappointment began. The carpet was filthy, and the gold plates attached to the room doors were in need of a cleaning. The room was very small, and could barely fit 2 double beds. Off in the corner by the window was a desk, and an easy chair.
The bathroom was dark and dirty. During our stay there, one time housekeeping didn't even clean the room or bring fresh towels. Overall, great location, but thats it. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.
Not for a family good location
The location was good since we want to see the mall. We parked 10 pm.
when we checked in, so they let us park the car until 10 pm. after check out. It was a special family weekend package that include free parking, one free movie, all family eat breakfast for 119 dollars.
Since most hotels in D.C ask for the parking fee, it was a good deal.
but next I rather stay in a hotel with a decent clean room and soft bedding. The room was small and carpet looked kinds of dirty. you can see the dark spots. I don't feel like walking around the room without shoes. the heating system makes little noise. It doesn't have a nice view even though we were at 12th floor after asking for a nice view.
the closet was so tiny there is no way we put our suitcase in it. The mattress was quite firm. In order to use internet you have to pay 10 dollars for the day. they have a ecent gym and a swimming pool with windows to street. we let baby play at the pool next morning at the pool. The breakfast was alright. Not great, but we had a good buffet meal in a nice restaurant overlooking the streets. The staffs were nice and helpful. I have a marriott reward card but I don't feel like to stay in this chain again. Since I have a baby it want some place rather bright and clean. It must be a good deal for business personel but not for a family with baby.
Couldn't ask for better
You couldnt ask for a better hotel experience. This Marriott was the best. They went out of their way to be friendly and help you in any way they could. The rooms were some of the cleanest I have ever seen. I could not make one complaint about this hotel or its staff. The room was quiet and I haven't slept better in a long time. The hotel is close to all of DC. Every thing you want to see is within walking distance.
The metro is just feet away. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!!
Thanks Marriott Metro Center!!! I will be back!!!

New Years Day
We had a super early start on New Years Day, leaving the hotel at 6am to fly to Washington DC. Everything went to plan and by 9:30am we had landed in Baltimore and negotiated the subway to make our way to DC.
A beautiful, sunny, cold afternoon awaited us and we walked and walked around the capital. There are so many big, …
The road trip begins
... the Korean War memorial, the Washington Memorial, the World War II Memorial and the Vietnam War Memorial. Trying to describe them would not do it justice, but one thing is certain: America knows how to do memorials, and how to do BIG. Seeing these momunemts as the sun set was an added bonus. We also walked past the White House that evening. We took a taxi back to the hotel and had another drink before heading back to our room to have late room service ...
Sunday 14th June
... and movies to watch and free breakfast too with an almost semi pro kitchen! The hostel also has some great free and cheap activities to get involved in. These are a great way to see things you may not have considered as well as meet lots of lovely people from all over the world. Possibly a bit expensive but to be honest it's hard to find anywhere cheaper.

Day 3 Washington DC - monuments
... a circuit on the Orange line bus (which goes around the National Mall and the majority of the monuments) to check everything out and listen to the excellent commentary from the driver. We then jumped on the Green line bust that went out to the National Cathedral (6th largest in the world), down Embassy row and back through Georgetown and the White House into the centre of downtown. Australia's ambassador's residence is awesome, one of the best in DC apparently. ...
Our second day in Washington DC

I will miss DC but grateful we could visit and spend two days there - one would not have been enough. Onwards to our next adventure ...

Choking is when someone is having a very hard time breathing because food, a toy, or other object is blocking the throat or windpipe (airway).
A choking person's airway may be blocked so that not enough oxygen reaches the lungs. Without oxygen, brain damage can occur in as little as 4 to 6 minutes. Rapid first aid for choking can save a person's life.
Choking can be caused by any of the following:
- Eating too fast, not chewing food well, or eating with dentures that do not fit well
- Drinking alcohol (even a small amount of alcohol affects awareness)
- Being unconscious and breathing in vomit
- Breathing in small objects (young children)
- Injury to the head and face (for example, swelling, bleeding, or a deformity can cause choking)
- Swallowing problems after a stroke
- Enlarging tonsils or tumors of the neck and throat
- Problems with the esophagus (food pipe or swallowing tube)
When an older child or adult is choking, they will often grab their throat with the hand. If the person does not do this, look for these danger signs:
- Inability to speak
- Difficulty breathing
- Noisy breathing or high-pitched sounds while inhaling
- Weak, ineffective coughing
- Bluish skin color
- Loss of consciousness if blockage is not cleared
First Aid
First ask, "Are you choking? Can you speak?" DO NOT perform first aid if the person is coughing forcefully and is able to speak. A strong cough can dislodge the object. Encourage the person to keep coughing to dislodge the object.
If the person cannot speak or is having a hard time breathing, you need to act fast to help the person. You can perform abdominal thrusts, back blows, or both.
To perform abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver):
- Stand behind the person and wrap your arms around the person's waist. For a child, you may have to kneel.
- Make a fist with one hand. Place the thumb side of your fist just above the person's navel, well below the breastbone.
- Grasp the fist tightly with your other hand.
- Make a quick, upward and inward thrust with your fist.
- Check if the object is dislodged.
- Continue these thrusts until the object is dislodged or the person loses consciousness (see below).
To perform back blows:
- Stand behind the person. For child, you may have to kneel.
- Wrap one arm around to support the person's upper body. Lean the person forward until the chest is about parallel to the ground.
- Use the heel of your other hand to deliver a firm blow between the person's shoulder blades.
- Check if the object is dislodged.
- Continue back blows until the object is dislodged or the person loses consciousness (see below).
To perform abdominal thrusts AND back blows (5-and-5 approach):
- Give 5 back blows, as described above.
- If the object is not dislodged, give 5 abdominal thrusts.
- Keep performing the 5-and-5 until the object is dislodged or the person loses consciousness (see below).
- Lower the person to the floor.
- Call 911 or the local emergency number or tell someone else to do so.
- Begin CPR. Chest compressions may help dislodge the object.
- If you see something blocking the airway and it is loose, try to remove it. If the object is lodged in the person's throat, do NOT try to grasp it. This can push the object farther into the airway.
- Wrap your arms around the person's CHEST.
- Place your fist on the MIDDLE of the breastbone between the nipples.
- Make firm, backward thrusts.
After removing the object that caused the choking, keep the person still and get medical help. Anyone who is choking should have a medical examination. Complications can occur not only from the choking, but also from the first aid measures that were taken.
- DO NOT interfere if the person is coughing forcefully, is able to speak, or is able to breathe in and out adequately. But, be ready to act right away if the person's symptoms get worse.
- DO NOT force open the person's mouth to try to grasp and pull out the object if the person is conscious. Perform abdominal thrusts and/or back blows to try to expel the object.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Seek medical help right away if you find someone unconscious.
When the person is choking:
- Tell someone to call 911 or the local emergency number while you begin first aid/CPR.
- If you are alone, shout for help and begin first aid/CPR.
After the object is successfully dislodged, the person should see a doctor because complications can arise.
In the days following a choking episode, contact a doctor right away if the person develops:
- A cough that does not go away
- Pneumonia and fever
- Shortness of breath
- Wheezing
These could be signs that the object entered the lung instead of being expelled.
To prevent choking:
- Eat slowly and chew food thoroughly.
- Make sure dentures fit properly.
- Do not drink too much alcohol before or during eating.
- Keep small objects away from young children.

Iraya is an active volcano in the Philippines.
Mount Iraya is an active volcano of the Philippines Iraya is located on Batan Island, one of the Batanes Islands, in the province of Batanes, in the Luzon Strait, north of the island of Luzon, in the Philippines.
It is the northernmost active volcano in the Philippines.
Physical features[edit]
Iraya is a heavily forested stratovolcano, with an elevation the of Template:Convertion asl, and a base diameter of 5,500 metres (18,000 ft).
Adjacent volcanic edifice is Mt. Matarem.
Mount iraya is also known as eunjung which usually erupts every year causing damage to houses, and other properties, living or not.
while Mount Matarem is a volcano which doesn't erupts but only explode as a volcano.
Volcanic activity[edit]
Mount Iraya last erupted in 1454, and the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) considers it as one of the active volcanoes in the Philippines.
In 1998, volcanologists recorded seismic swarms which led them to form a monitoring network on Batan Island for several months. After the swarms of tremors had diminished, the temporary stations in Barangay San Joaquin in Basco, Batanes and another near the crater, were pulled out. Seismicity or any activity relating to Iraya is still monitored by the Basco Seismological Station.
Volcanoes of the Philippines are all part of the Pacific ring of fire.
