Magic Hands Photography, Kent
portrait photographer, professional photographer, Family Portraits
So you have decided to let me take some great pictures of you and/or your family! Excellent choice (if I may say so myself).
So what do you do now, you might be thinking…..?
The first thing to do is message or call me
I will ask you a few details about yourself and the person/people of whom I will be photographing.
I prefer to meet you before the shoot if at all possible (NOT for a 'hard sell' *shudders at the thought*), but to get an idea of your tastes and personality so I can fit the session and potential 'backdrop and props' to your preferences.
I have loads of ideas too that you may not have thought of so a discussion before we are 'on the clock', so to speak, is vital.
Not all photos are done in my studio, so best locations for your needs will be discussed also.
It is important too, that we discuss how you want the look of the picture(s) to be and what to wear – for one example white trousers against a white backdrop can sometime make you 'disappear'..etc.
To arrange this simply call 01634 326 324 or 07816161274 for a friendly chat.
On the day
I will have sent you full directions and, if needed, a parking permit so when you arrive you can come right in.
If we are shooting on a location instead I will be there before you arrive so I can set-up and ensure the equipment is correctly set.
I have a bubbly personality and will give you directions, tips and advice for creating the best look. I am an artistic person and am more than happy to try 'off-the-wall' or alternative ideas should you desire. I may crack a few jokes with the kids about 'Mum or Dad' in order to help them relax.
Please do let me know if you would,however, prefer me to be formal.
Shoots typically last anywhere from 1-2 hours depending on how many of you there are. I do not charge extra for going 'over time' and I do not charge shoots by the hour. Its all about getting the right pictures for YOU, whatever it takes.
Once the shoot is completed all you have to do is wait excitedly for me to check and edit the pictures.
NO payment is required yet!
Ordering Consultation
Once the images are ready for you I will be straight in touch to arrange to come and show them to you.
I can meet you at your home (which is best if your portrait is going to hang in your house somewhere..read on to find out why). Or I can meet at a coffee-shop or other desired location. This meeting is included in the shoot price.
This is one of the most important parts as it is when you get to decide what pictures you like the best.
I will bring along some prints of the best images for you to view and choose from. I will also bring some sizing cards (examples of the sizes of prints you can order) so you get a good idea of what you are ordering. If this meeting is in your home you can place the card where you would be hanging the picture in order find the ideal size for your space.
Then once you have chosen your favourites you will then pay for the shoot and the order. I shall then zip off and get them done for you as quickly as is humanly possible!
When the order is ready
Once your order is completed and ready for you I will be more than happy to bring them over to you and deliver them personally or, if you prefer, I can pop them in the post.
I will of course remain on the end of the phone throughout the whole process should you have any burning questions or need any further help.
Call now to find out what I can do for YOU on
01634 326 324 or 07816161274

Marine Corporal receives Victory Motorcycle; Volunteers send support to Ronald Reagan Strike Group
Hundreds of Operation Gratitude volunteers and special guests gathered to send care packages to the Ronald Reagan Strike Group and see a Camp Pendleton Marine receive a motorcyle promised to him while he was serving in Afghanistan.
Operation Gratitude Volunteer Coordinator, Penny Alfonso summed up the day simply, "It was a day of laughter, tears, and patriotism."
Cpl. Clancy Colt Cheek gratefully took ownership of the special gift presented to him by Robert Pandya, External Relations Manager of Victory Motorcycles.
Cheek, the recipient of Operation Gratitude's 600,000th care package, is a member of the 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment and returned to Camp Pendleton earlier this spring after a deployment in Sangin, Afghanistan. During the deployment, the 3/5, also known as the "Darkhorse" Battalion, endured heavy combat and losses, including the death of Cheek's best friend, 19-year-old Lance Cpl. Alec Catherwood, of Byron, Illinois.
Pandya told Cheek he was proud to represent Victory Motorcycles and speak on his co-workers' behalf. "The motorcycle community has always cherished the 'Freedom to Ride,' a privilege guaranteed by the efforts and sacrifice of our heroes in the Military," he said. "We all thank you for what you, and every member of the Armed Forces have done for those of us lucky enough to live in the United States of America," he said.
Cheek expressed his heartfelt thanks for the motorcycle and for the dedication of the Operation Gratitude volunteers and supporters. Responding to a young woman who called him a hero, Cheek recalled the Marines who did not return from Afghanistan. "I'm no hero," he said. "Heroes are those men who stood beside me in the Valley of Death and gave their lives for freedom."
Operation Gratitude founder, Carolyn Blashek, said Cheek was the perfect person to receive this gift as a representative of all members of the U.S. Military. "Cpl Cheek was humble and incredibly gracious in accepting the Victory Motorcycle,"
In commemoration of the anniversary of President Ronald Reagan's passing, Michael Reagan, his wife Colleen, and son, Cameron, along with representatives of the Reagan Legacy Foundation participated on the Assembly Line to create care packages for the 5,000 crew members deployed aboard aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan, named in honor of the 40th President of the United States.
Reagan, the President's son, read a letter he had received that morning from the Commanding Officer of USS Reagan, Captain T.W. Burke. "Care packages from home are always a welcome surprise and we appreciate everything that Operation Gratitude does to support our Military," Burke wrote.
Care packages were also assembled and shipped to the crew of guided-missile destroyer USS Preble and guided-missile cruiser USS Chancellorsville, both currently serving in the Ronald Reagan Carrier Strike Group.
Councilman Dennis Zine presented beautiful City of Los Angeles Certificates of Appreciation to Cheek; Reagan; Victory Motorcycles;
Operation Gratitude volunteers will continue to assemble and ship its Patriotic Drive Care Packages through June.

speedy start
Orbit Racing had a strong start to the 12 Hours of Sebring, topping the GT class on the first day of testing Monday and again during the second official practice on Wednesday. Marc Lieb lapped the 3.7-mile Sebring International Raceway road course in two minutes 6.865 seconds - fastest GT time in the final Wednesday practice and second-quickest of the day. He is driving the No. 43 YES Network Porsche with Leo Hindery and Peter Baron.
Their teammates Mike Fitzgerald, Jay Policastro and Joe Policastro, racing the new No. 42 Classic Industries Porsche, were eighth in GT on Wednesday (2:10.240).
"We've been chasing some electrical gremlins, which have taken away from setup time, and we have a little understeer we've been working on," Baron said. "But I think we have the electrical gremlins under control, so now we'll be able to work more on setup. The crew has done a great job thrashing on the car, getting it all squared away."
"We're doing pretty good this weekend," Jay Policastro noted. "We have the brand-new '03 Porsche here and it feels really good - it came out of the box great. At this point, we're working on some fine-tuning on the front end and some tuning between the seat and the steering wheel! We're getting our lap times down to where we think we need to be and we're continuing to familiarize ourselves with different points on the track."
background check
Three of Orbit Racing's drivers started their sports careers outside motorsport. Peter Baron was heading for the life of a tennis pro, Mike Fitzgerald dreamed of following his father's career as a professional baseball player and Marc Lieb was a promising soccer goalkeeper. His father, uncle and grandfather were successful goalkeepers, making it a family tradition.
tech talk
Porsche is the only manufacturer that produces race cars on its regular production line. Orbit Racing then fine-tunes the cars to further improve track results.
"We buy the cars ready to race from Porsche, but they're built to a certain level and budget," technical director Tim Munday explained. "We completely dismantle them and basically spend a lot of money making them even lighter and faster. We use a lot of exotic materials like carbon fiber and we put holes in a lot of things! If you want to compete at the top end, you need to put a lot of time and effort into it."

If you're out there looking for the best diamond for your money, then please contact us and let us know your budget and what you're looking for. We'll sift through thousands of diamonds online and send you suggested stones to choose from that fit your needs the best.
Blue Nile is the largest and most well known internet diamond seller, but their business model has drawbacks. The inability to see their diamonds forces you to pay more for unnecessary upgrades in color and clarity to insure you don't get stuck with an ugly stone.
Depending on what you are looking for, you can often get more for your money on a site like James Allen or Brian Gavin Diamonds that has high quality images of their diamonds that allow you to cherry-pick the best diamonds with SI1 and SI2 clarity grades that will be "eye-clean," thereby saving you money.
There are times, though, when paying for an upgrade at Blue Nile to ensure an eye clean diamond can still land you a better overall deal than the other stores. Blue Nile has given us several thousand unique single-use coupon codes to offer our readers that will often help accomplish this. If you're considering buying from them, make sure to contact us to get one of these unique discount codes.
Bluenile.com was founded in 1999 by Mark Vadon. The story goes that around that time Mr. Vadon was shopping for an engagement ring and was fed up with his options.
He felt that diamonds were essentially a commodity, and that all he needed to do was learn about this commodity and then shop for the best price.
He discovered a site online called internetdiamonds.com and was intrigued. He contacted the owner, formed a partnership, and shopped around his idea to the venture capital circuit. The rest, as they say, is history.
Blue Nile's business model (speaking now only of their engagement ring business which is overwhelmingly their primary source of revenue) is a fairly simple one.
Blue Nile signs exclusivity agreements with diamond wholesalers all over the world that stipulate that these wholesalers can only list their diamonds on Blue Nile and no other online retail site.
The reasons for the exclusivity are simple – Blue Nile doesn't want their customers comparing prices for the same stone that they'll find on 3 other sites, and they also want to maintain an edge over their competition in terms of how many diamonds they list as their own at any given time.
Worldwide Inventory
Blue Nile takes lists of diamonds from their vendors and uploads them into their database and lists them for sale on the website.
Since these diamonds are located all over the world, mounting & shipping times can vary depending where the stone is being sourced from.
Outsourcing Opinions
Based on my personal experience with Blue Nile conducting research for this article in 2011, it appeared that they (at least occasionally) didn't use their own people to mount the diamonds into settings – the setting work appeared to be contracted out. After speaking to some insiders more recently, however, this no longer seems to be the case.
People report that they can call Blue Nile and ask them to inspect diamonds listed on their site to get gemologists' reports about whether or not a specific stone is eye-clean.
It would appear that all that Blue Nile's gemologists do in such a case is call the specific vendor who owns the diamond in question and ask them for their opinion of the diamond. I believe this is still the case, since Blue Nile will only take possession of a diamond for mounting after it has been ordered.
Biased Perspectives
The flaw in the system is that since each vendor is motivated to sell his diamond over his competition's, he's always going to push his own stones.
From the vendor's perspective, the worst that can happen is the customer won't be happy and he'll return it – but if the vendor doesn't push his stone, he knows he won't stand a chance of closing the sale.
For purposes of this review, I ordered an engagement ring from Blue Nile using a pseudonym.
Figure 1 is a copy of my invoice. As you can see in the invoice, I ordered a 1.01 carat J color SI2 clarity diamond mounted in a simple solitaire engagement ring setting. I couldn't find any Blue Nile coupon code, so I bought it as is.
Since I've already reviewed Blue Nile's customer support in my Diamond Earrings Review article, I decided this time to place the order online. Their check-out system was very elegant and easy to use.
Blue Nile's packaging was average at best. See Figures 2 & 3. They ship the ring in a custom-made brown cardboard box with a special cutout in the center for the jewelry box which contains the actual ring.
On top of this is a blue paper envelope with the various documents accompanying the purchase (invoice, appraisal, and diamond certificate). In Figure 3, you can see the actual jewelry box removed from its cover.
First Impressions
I feel that if you're paying several thousand dollars for a product, you shouldn't open up the shipping box and see your jewelry box perched in the middle of brown cardboard.
Your initial impression of the importance of a package is how well it is wrapped and presented, and this presentation does not befit the significance of this purchase.
As you can see in my articles on color and clarity, the best value for a round diamond set in a solitaire setting can be achieved by going for a J color diamond and a clarity grade as low as possible that's clean to the naked eye.
Since with Blue Nile, it's not possible to review a magnified picture of the actual diamond, I couldn't choose a clarity grade that would be too low (like an I1), otherwise it would be unfairly likely to have eye visible inclusions.
Compared to Others
On other sites that have pictures (such as James Allen, Zoara, and Brian Gavin Diamonds), you can shop around and cherry pick the one I1 clarity diamond that is still clean to the naked eye.
On Blue Nile, however, that's not possible. Therefore, I decided to go with an SI2 Clarity Diamond since most of these are eye clean and this is usually where you find the best mix of value and visual appearance.
As for how I chose this specific stone, I did what I felt most Blue Nile customers would do – I selected the cheapest Ideal Cut J SI2 1 carat stone they had available.
The Diamond
Figures 4 and 5 are images of the diamond itself and the GIA certificate, respectively.
As you can see in Figure 4, this stone has an easily noticeable icy white inclusion in the center of the stone.
Hidden Elements
This inclusion was easily visible to the naked eye from the very moment the lid was lifted from its presentation box.
This is not a stone I would ever recommend, regardless of budget, but I didn't have the option of seeing a magnified picture in advance to rule it out.
My research for this article exposes several problems with Blue Nile's business model. Remember, that the very founding of the company was based on Mark Vadon's premise that diamonds are a commodity.
The definition of a commodity is that all you need to know is its price to make a purchasing decision (ie, a bar of gold is a bar of gold and a bushel of wheat is a bushel of wheat – the only variables are quantity and price).
But can diamonds really be evaluated by price alone? Yes, it's true that if you're dealing with VVS clarity round ideal cut diamonds, then all you really need is the diamond's price to figure out if it's a good deal or not.
The Importance of Evaluation
But for just about every other category of diamond, that just isn't the case. You need to see at least a photograph of the diamond to evaluate its cut (primarily in the case of fancy shapes) and, just as importantly, to evaluate the diamond's clarity.
Blue Nile treats SI2 clarity Oval Cut diamonds just as they do Flawless Ideal Cut Round diamonds.
Anybody with any experience in the diamond business knows that this is absurd since the vast majority of Oval cut diamonds are very poorly cut and there's no way of identifying the nice ones using a certificate alone – not to mention the problem of potentially ugly eye visible inclusions.
Preventing Disappointments
If I had tried to order this same stone from a vendor with magnified pictures of their diamonds, I wouldn't make the mistake of ordering this stone because I could see very easily in the picture that the stone has a noticeable inclusion dead center.
Unrealistic Appraisals
And that brings me to my final concern about Blue Nile: Their appraisal lacked credibility.
My total bill for the ring at Blue Nile was $4262. For comparison's sake, for my review of James Allen, I ordered a very similar diamond and ring (almost identical on paper, but far superior in actual quality).
My total bill from James Allen was $3994. Blue Nile appraised their ring at a value of $7800 while James Allen appraised their ring for $5600.
The purpose of the appraisal is to let the insurance company know what a full retail replacement value of the ring is.
The Pros and Cons of Higher Appraisals
You want a higher appraisal than what you paid because it'll make your life easier if it gets lost or stolen and needs to be replaced. But you don't want too high of an appraisal because then that's just going to make your insurance premiums needlessly higher.
In my opinion, Blue Nile is going way overboard.
Confronting the Situation
When I questioned a customer service agent about the size of the appraisal, her response was somewhat surprising. She said to me,
"there is no right or wrong when it comes to appraisals. An appraisal can be anything. This is what the person felt the ring was worth. Many companies will tell you that they'll appraise the ring for double of what they sell it for. Our appraisal isn't even that bad. You're welcome to get it appraised again, if you wish, to a number more to your liking."
Blue Nile is clearly a powerhouse of a company. They are the leader in online diamond sales. Nobody can compete with them when it comes to the size of their inventory of loose diamonds, and nobody has nearly as deep of an inventory of engagement ring settings.
It happens often that readers will contact me saying they want to buy a diamond at one place or another (not Blue Nile), but they feel they have to buy from Blue Nile because they're the only ones who sell the particular ring they want.
In that regard, they are very much in tune with the likes and dislikes of the bulk of diamond consumers out there. But aside from those two points, there are a number of problems with Blue Nile as I detailed in this article.
Before you buy a diamond, get personal buying advice from industry veterans. We'll help you get the best diamond for the money.

People living in south Delhi colonies will now be able to access 'open gyms' in their neighbourhood parks maintained by civic bodies.
The South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) on Thursday passed a resolution in its standing committee meeting to establish 'open gyms' in every ward as a pilot project.
The SDMC took the cue from the 'Go Green, Open Gym' project of the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) in parks such as Lodhi Garden and Nehru Park.
The NDMC is running such gyms in 30 parks. These gyms are built over an area of 1,000 square metres in an open space. With 12 apparatus, the cost of the gyms is Rs 6 lakh.
"The most pleasant thing is that there is no need of any roof or room and even electricity," Radhey Shyam Sharma, a south Delhi councillor, said at the meeting.

Just who is it that's not supposed to be in Villa Park?
An email by Villa Park City Councilwoman Deborah Pauly was circulating around town this week, urging residents of OC's smallest city to sign up for a newly instituted 'Do Not Solicit' registry.
Pauly was trying to let people know about a new city law that regulates solicitors. She hopes the law will "reduce (or even eliminate) the amount of unwanted fliers, brochures, business cards and the like that are left on our porches."
"If enough residents are on the list, our city will become unproductive for solicitors," the email says.
Thing is, Pauly was being investigated earlier this year for, among other things, posting political signs on properties of people who didn't support her. (The district attorney later dropped its investigation due to lack of evidence.)
The email then goes on to explain why the list, and a new ordinance tightening regulations on door-to-door sales people, is important.
Reason 2 is what first caught the Watchdog's attention: "To get a handle on who is in the city and who is supposed to be in the city. Door-to-door literature distribution has become so common that most residents don't even question who is walking our streets. Some of these folks may be casing the neighborhood for easy targets."
Um, so who, exactly, is supposed to be in the city?
"Political candidates and non profits are written out of (the ordinance)," Pauly told The Watchdog. "As far as we're concerned, that's protected speech. My job is to make sure the residents, if they don't want unsolicited trash on their porch by solicitors (can) get a handle on it."
City Manager Ken Domer clarified that charitable, religious and political solicitors still are required to get a permit, but they don't have to pay the permit fee, which is $50 for a week, $100 for the year. The law also requires solicitors to get finger-printed, but city officials can decide when to waive that requirement. Meaning, it's not likely City Council candidates and high school candy sellers are going to be leaving City Hall with purple fingers any time soon.
For the record, the law passed in June with no opposition. And some 300 households already have signed up. The council wanted to take the law even farther, by making it illegal for solicitors to go to any house that didn't specifically tell the city that they don't mind being bothered at home by signing up for an it's OK to solicit me registry. Their city attorney told them that idea wouldn't fly.
Pauly told us that the law isn't intended to stop all door-to-door salespeople. It's meant to give some residents recourse if there's an aggressive person on their property, or if they're tired of picking up litter from their front porches. Residents should call the police when they see non-licensed solicitors, she said.
So what if a Girl Scout doesn't have a license? Would she be cited for hawking Thin Mints?
"No resident is going to call on a Girl Scout because she's the 12-year-old who lives two houses down from you," Pauly says. "That's a big difference between someone going door to door."
The Watchdog agrees that door-to-door sales people can be pesky, and sometimes way too aggressive. (The Watchdog's grandma once had to call the police on a scary contractor.)
But doesn't this law say that one kind of speech should be more free than another?
Pauly says no: "I see it as incredibly different. It isn't a matter of free speech. It's a matter, as a property owner, to decide, 'Who do I want on my front porch?'''

In 5-4 Vote, City Council Kills Street Vacation for New Sodo Arena
The misogyny evident on twitter was something to be proud of for sure. Even some of the media (yes King 5 - one of them was yours) made gender-related comments that were completely unnecessary. I expect that from Utah, where women are second-class citizens mostly good for breeding & caring for the house & the progeny, but for a city that prides itself on being progressive, many of those comments were anything but.

Washington Public Schools Are Criminally Underfunded, But Governor Inslee Won't Commit to Vetoing Charter School Law
Utah legislators LOVE charter schools. It's their supplementary income! Sell the land where the charter school will go - profit! Hire the fam's construction company to build the school - profit! Another family member gets the charter approved, runs the school, hires the rest of the family to work at the school for outrageous wages and very little work. Then hire a bunch of uncertificated teachers who are desperate for a job, pay them crap wages, make them work 12 hour days under threat of losing their jobs if they don't. Oh - don't forget to site your charter school out in the suburbs, and since no transportation is offered, only the middle-upper class parents are able to drive them there. Also, adding in some required volunteer hours further ensures that you'll get the families where only one parent has to work. Finally, making sure that you don't serve lunch keeps that free and reduced riff-raff out of your school. But make sure your charter states that it is for low-income kids, under-served populations, and kids who need an alternate setting for education. Of course, it's not your fault they didn't enroll, it's in your charter, after all. Then sit back and profit away! Oh - and push for more funding for charter schools when you sit in your legislative job, that way you can increase your profit margin. Aren't charter schools wonderful? All that public money, ripe for the picking?
Yay, charters!

Talk about a dumbshit - that'd be @9.
Vouchers - though they are the RWNJ wet dream - don't work. Schools do the choosing, not the parents/kids. Really good schools cost WAY more than the voucher is worth. Fly-by-night voucher schools spring up, take the money, then suddenly close. And yay - voucher schools teach creationism! Just what we need to complete the total dumbing down of America by the GOP.

Underneath it all
Loyal? Certain? Happy? Known? Maybe... mostly... here?
Yesterday I sat in the sunshine with my husband and some friends who have walked with us through it all. We tossed around jokes, sorrows, existential brick walls, questions about gardens, goats, guilt, the works. The conversation twisted and turned in unpredictable ways while kids wove around us chomping on carrots or offering kernels of popcorn from sweet, sweaty little hands.
While we chattered I watched my friend's man deconstruct a skateboard with a confidence that surprised me. He took it apart. He stripped it down. And quietly, simply he made it new. He knew exactly what a skateboard was underneath it all and how it should work and what it should be.
I didn't say so then, but his work reminded me of quilt-making. Most people take a quilt for granted. They don't know what it is inside, what steps it takes to make one, that it's just three layers bound together - nothing more, nothing less.
I made this backing for my Doodle Doodle improv quilt from leftover solid scraps I'd saved in a basket from the making of the quilt top. Little random bits that sew together to make decent blocks, that combined with orphan blocks become eventually a large swath of colorful cloth. And soon a backing. And soon a finished quilt. It'll be something that delights and amazes and blesses someone.
But underneath it all, it's just bits of fabric cut up and sewn together.
So simple, underneath it all.

We learn so much. Every dear friend has their story
I do not know if every one gets super excited like quilters do, but I am sure there are areas. Funny. People know incredible stuff we do not know. And quite honestly, I do not have room in my head for some of it. I am at peace with that.
I am so glad you had a really nice time with your dearest friends and the kids.
This quilt is so cool, from these photos, that one block with the curves looks like a gem of some sort.
Sounds like such a lovely day, and so well written.ReplyDelete

Apple Pushes to Make Siri's AI More Useful and Reliable
NEWS ANALYSIS: Apple continues to improve Siri with support for new platforms and third parties, but data privacy remains a stumbling block.The battle of the digital assistants will begin again in earnest in the fall of 2016 when the latest version of Apple's Siri hits the street with iOS 10. But this time it also will hit the streets with MacOS Sierra and with the Apple TV. This latest version of Siri will be the first to provide APIs that enable third-party developers to create new skills and functions for the voice-activated digital assistant. You've probably noticed that other digital assistants, such as Amazon's Alexa, already have access to third-party apps. But gaining these new functions is a bigger deal for Apple, if only because some of those third-party apps for Siri can extend the assistant's role in artificial intelligence. One of disadvantages Apple has had with Siri is that it worked with just a few apps from Apple. As a result, compared to other assistants that have reached the market, Siri couldn't do a lot. Adding to the difficulty of making Siri more useful is Apple's laudable focus on privacy, which has further limited what Siri can do.
That's starting to change. Using what Apple is calling "Siri Intelligence," the virtual assistant will begin to be able to pass portions of requests back to Apple for to obtain more complete information or to produce better results.

A quiet day today; sleep in and then out on the seas so set both my smart devices, woke with the alarm at 0800 hrs, had a chat to Kate then decided shower time. My watch said 0930. We needed to be on the coach at ten. I phoned reception and they confirmed yes it was indeed 9:30. So it was a very swift shower dress pack and out the door. I even had 5 minutes for a quick breakfast from the most elaborate buffet yet. Onwards to ...
Departure Antalya - Istanbul - Montreal
Got up at 6:00 and headed for a quick breakfast of coffee and half a bagel with cheese. That should hold me over till breakfast on the plane which departs at 8:55 am. We arrived in Istanbul at 9:45 with 20 minutes to spare. Headed for the International departures and CIP Lounge (Business class) which ...
Pool Day
Following a wonderful supper at Talya Balik for a sun set meal with Turkish wine. Francois was feeling a little groggy so we decided to skip playing tennis and decided to relax in the lobby while we digested our late breakfast. We also did not want to drive to the beach which was a nice offer from Pierre, who was also feeling ill with a bad cold. In turkey we do not say SICK as it is a very bad word in Turkish. At around 11:00 we decided to head for the pool and found a nice ...
Taking it Easy
Slept in while Francois went to work. Went for breakfast around 8:15 and did some reading. I came back to the room, put on my bathing suit, got my post cards and other things and headed for the pool side. Francois came to meet me around 2:00 PM since the job site has been closed for the time being. Spent a few more hours relaxing by the pool together then went to buy some ...
Old Town
Today we had an early breakfast and met Pierre who was almost finished his. Talked a little and then headed to the old town on foot. It was a lovely walkway all the way to the old city and was pretty much ocean side the whole distance. We did close to 10-12 km of walking with the quaint winding streets of local vendors. We saw a few tourist attractions, mosques, minarets, and Hadrian's gate which dates back to Roman times. It was built in ...

Many people file chapter 13 solely because of the opportunity it provides to get caught up on missed house payments or car payments. If you are several months behind on your house payment and want to avoid foreclosure, a chapter 13 bankruptcy will allow you to get caught up on those payments over the next 3 to 5 years. For example, let's say your house payment is $1,000 per month and you are six months behind. You currently owe $6,000 in back payments.
The chapter 13 bankruptcy will allow you to pay that $6,000 back over the next 60 months. So if this were your scenario we know from the get-go that your monthly plan payment will be at least $100 ($6,000 divided by 60 months).
But our calculations don't stop there…
Not all debt is created equal. Certain debts have achieved priority status in the bankruptcy world due to who the money is owed to. The most common prior debts in bankruptcy are back taxes owed to a state or the IRS and child/spousal support. These debts must be paid in full during your chapter 13 case.
So, if you owed the IRS $1,500 it would need to be paid over the 60 months of your case. $1,500 divided by 60 months = $25 per month.
Now we know that our monthly plan payment will be at least $100 (missed house payments) + $25 (taxes), or $125 per month. But again, we can't stop there…
One of the reasons some people choose chapter 13 over a chapter 7 bankruptcy is because in a chapter 13 your generally are allowed to retain possession of your assets. Basically you can keep your stuff. But there is a price to be paid. The trade off is that while the bankruptcy trustee won't come pick up that shiny new ATV at your house, they will require you to pay the value of it through your bankruptcy case. If you have assets that you own free and clear of any liens or payments, and the asset is not protected under one of the exemption laws of your state, you are going to be required to pay the value of the asset over the next 60 months.
Here is how it works. Let's say your pride and joy, your Yamaha Banshee ATV, which you have had for years and is completely paid for, is worth $2,000. You will be required to pay the value of that ATV over the next 60 months. So $2,000 divided by 60 months = $33.33 per month. You would need to do this for each non-exempt asset you own.
The monthly plan payment now looks like this, $100 (missed house payments) + $25 (taxes) + $33.33 (ATV) = $158.33
In addition to the first three steps, you are required to pay over all of your disposable income to your creditors over the next five years. In its most basic form disposable income is calculated by looking at your monthly income, subtracting your monthly living expenses, and looking to see if there is any money left over. Whether the amount left over is $5 or $5,000, you will be required to turn it over to the bankruptcy trustee who will in turn pay it out to your creditors.
Note that not all expenses are allowed and there are limits to what your monthly expenses. You can't, for example, come to the court and say that you need $1,000 per month to support your ATV hobby. But if you look to your monthly income and expenses it will at least give you a good idea of what you will be required to pay.
So, if your monthly disposable income is $250, we know your plan payment will be at least $250.
Many bankruptcy attorneys, myself included, do not require that clients pay the full chapter 13 legal fees prior to filing. Some may require very little upfront but will need to be paid the balance over the life of your plan. For instance if your bankruptcy lawyer charges $4,500 for a chapter 13 case, and you paid $2,000 prior to the filing of your case, you will be paying the balance of $2,500 through the plan. This would add $41.67 per month to your plan payment ($2,500 divided by 60 months).
Further, the bankruptcy trustee that is assigned to your case is paid by you. In Arizona the chapter 13 trustee takes anywhere from 4% up to 10% of the total amount you pay into your case. So if you will be paying $25,000 into your plan over the five years, the trustee would take another $2,500 (10%) or $41.67 per month.
Where does this leave us? With all of the above taken into account, your monthly plan payment would be anywhere from $333.34 per month up to $491.70. Why the range? Because there is something called Form 22C. You may be required to pay your disposable income (see the $250 above) to your unsecured creditors, and then pay everything else. I know that part is confusing, and that is why I said at the beginning it is difficult to tell anyone exactly what their plan payment will be without running all of the calculations for each individual case.
But the above will give you an idea of what your monthly plan payment will be and whether you think you will be able to swing a chapter 13 bankruptcy case. If you are thinking about chapter 13 I would recommend meeting with a bankruptcy attorney. Chapter 13 cases can be complex and in fact very few chapter 13 cases where an attorney is not involved are successful.

|AMQ_SCHEDULED_DELAY and transactional boundaries
|Sat, 27 Oct 2012 00:41:36 GMT
I have observed that when sending delayed delivery messages (with AMQ_SCHEDULED_DELAY values in the header), ActiveMQ does not seem to be including the delivery in the original transaction. This results in duplicate messages being delivered in my setup. Here is how I tested: 1. Send a message to a Q1. 2.a Consumer starts a transaction and reads message from Q1. 2.b Consumer sends the message to a retry queue Q2 with AMQ_SCHEDULED_DELAY header in the same transaction. 2.c Consumer crashes before it can commit the transaction. But I can see both messages after AMQ_SCHEDULED_DELAY despite the transaction not being committed. So first message was not dequeued from Q1, since the transaction was not committed, but the second message is delivered to Q2 despite the transaction not being committed. When I try the same test without the delay, the second message does not get delivered as expected. This makes me think that my transaction management is ok. I could not find anything that indicates that delayed/scheduled delivery of messages will not participate in transactions in docs or on forums. So I wanted to check with the experts what the expected behavior is. Thanks for your help in advance. -- View this message in context: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/AMQ-SCHEDULED-DELAY-and-transactional-boundaries-tp4658339.html Sent from the ActiveMQ - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Real Estate
The process of buying or selling a self-storage facility has become more rigorous as markets have become more competitive and changes in the economy impact property value. To know the accuracy of a self-storage appraisal, a self-storage owner should have a clear understanding of facility value and the effect of capitalization (cap) rates. A buyer should complete a comprehensive due-diligence process to know if an investment is financially sound.
