Baby, baby, baby!
Abu Dhabi is the richest and biggest of the seven United Arab Emirates.
The city of Abu Dhabi is the capital and second most populous city of the UAE, surpassed only by Dubai, which we will visit tomorrow at the conclusion of our cruise.
But we actually didn't spend much time in the city.
We were headed inland to the oasis city of Al Ain (pronounced as one word: align), about two hours away.

We didn't actually have to cover up as much as I feared- the mosque wasn't open till after 4 so we couldn't visit there or i would have had to cover up- even my head!

Terrence Malick Speaks
Before over a billion people watched his Olympics opening ceremony, Danny Boyle assembled three great actors and shot a heist movie. What resulted — and what was edited after two weeks of global glorification — is Trance, which the first preview makes out to be the director's (no surprise) stylish and high-concept spin on the familiar crime subgenre. Not a bad way to start the new year, right?
Following an art auctioneer (James McAvoy) working with a hypnotherapist (Rosario Dawson) to recover memories of a painting which a thief (Vincent Cassel) intends to steal, this one looks wildly entertaining. From this first peek, my main sensation is that Boyle will dial back on the, sometimes, near-experimental nature of 127 Hours in favor of a mix between the story of, for instance, Shallow Grave and the style of 28 Days Later. (That this film is losing ugly DV cinematography is another bonus.) Mark your calendars, because Trance could be a fun ride.
Watch the trailer below:
Trance will open in the U.K. on March 27th; a U.S. release should follow shortly thereafter.
Are you keen on this preview? How does the film look to stand up to Boyle's prior work?
Since any New York City cinephile has a nearly suffocating wealth of theatrical options, we figured it'd be best to compile some of the more worthwhile repertory showings into one handy list. Displayed below are a few of the city's most reliable theaters and links to screenings of their weekend offerings — films you're not […]

When you have prepared your presentation, practised and become familiar with its content, the assumption might be that you are ready for the podium. Not so fast. There's still the outstanding task of handling questions during a presentation. What to do about the question and answer session.
When it's managed well a question and answer session serves several vital purposes: it emphasizes your grasp of the presentation subject; it boosts your standing with the audience; it enables audience participation and it builds the prospect of a grand finale to the presentation.
And typically a good question and answer session is well managed and planned.
To get the best results there are five main skills to note before the presentation:
Be prepared. Each and every point made in your presentation could invite a question from the audience. To be prepared for this you need to work through all of your material. You need to imagine and note down the questions that might crop up. These questions during a presentation might require further explanation, clarification or opinion. For each question that you note down you should prepare a written answer.
Consider the audience. No matter how much thought you put into predicting questions your audience will think of something else. Your audience is likely to have a shared, or known, background. Knowing their shared interests helps to anticipate their questions.
Note the news. In spite of all your preparation, news events can still conspire against you. The evening before the presentation simply scan the headlines for topical events and anything that might be relevant to the presentation. Sports, politics, business or even entertainment news might be a lead into a question area with your audience.
Place a question. That awkward moment between the call for questions and the first question being asked might well define the success of your whole presentation. You need to take a pre-placed question from the audience. It's rare for an audience member to pop up with an engaging inspiring question immediately. Your pre-placed question does the job. Once that's out the way other questions will follow naturally.
Be brief. Your answers must be brief, concise and to the point. This is not the time to discuss a mass of arcane detail. That can be kept for later. Your answers should be directed back to the questioner–with plenty of eye contact. If necessary you might need to repeat the question for the benefit of the rest of the audience before you give an answer. And, of course, the whole exercise must be handled courteously.
With the time available for questions at an end now is the time to bring your presentation to an end with the grand finale—your concluding remarks.
"So many men so many questions."

Good spot

Sacred Waters: Wow! Forget Huka Lodge, this is the place to be
Sacred waters is basically made up of 2 blocks. The main larger block consisting of 2 or 3 bedroom luxury apartments, some facing the lake and some not. The Lakefront block is on the lake is only available in 3 bedroom configurations. There are only 6 of these 3 bedroom apartments. 3 lower and 3 upper level apartments. These review is for the lower level 3 bedroom Lakefront apartment with its own private secured double garage. There is a large secured communal garage in the main block.

The apartments are air conditioned in the main living room, not ducted to the bedrooms. When you first walk in 2 bedrooms flank either side, one has an onsuite. Then the main bedroom with large sliding doors that open out to views of the lake and another bathroom. Then the main living area with 42" lcd tv, dvd and stereo plus kitchen. Beyond that a small garden, deck, spa and a low fence secured with a gate for access out on to the lake. Ducks were there in the morning and would come up to you hoping for some treats. Each room is also equipped with its own television and with separate Sky (cable TV). Menus from most of the local restaurants are also available at the rooms.

The fridge is stocked with breakfast consisting of bread, cereal, condiments, juice, milk, etc. The kitchen is well equipped and comes with not 1 but 2 dishwashers.

I managed to get a good workout from the well equipped gym, which was quite hot due to the natural thermal energy below. The gym was however equipped with an air conditioner and TV.

It is a pity, there is actually not that much to do in Taupo to justify staying more than 1 or 2 nights here.

At the time of writing the managers are getting rid of the Clarion franchise and the place will be know as just Sacred Waters in months to come.

I Look forward to staying here again.
My impressions of this property is wow! Modern, spacious, harmonic colour schemes, good lighting, great location, tastefully designed and furnished properties with a "wow" factor. It is indeed luxury, if you want to impress anyone, this place would do it. My photos and the photos on the hotel website does this place no justice.

Twin Peaks: Good clean accomodation
Clean and tidy, make sure you get a room on the upper floor (the ground floor has no view at all) if you want a good view of the lake. This 'motel' is a collection of private owned apartments, so it is a bit pot-luck if you get a recently modernised unit. Ask the reception for a good unit.

The Spa was warm and clean and the Sauna was hot, what else can you ask for.

No pool but the attached pub/restaurant was good.

Uncomfortable couch beds (that squeeked).
Great views from the upper floor rooms.

Lakefront Motor Lodge: Clean & Tidy
This is a great place to stay, with or without children. To be able to go home in the evening, cook a meal in the oven or microwave and then relax in your own private in room spa pool was great.

The motel itself is clean, tidy and very spacious.

The view of the lake isnt quite so great if you are in the ground level accommodation but theres a huge reserve area across the road where you can take great pics of the lake and the mountains. Not only that, the lake is directly across the road, so you can simply go across to the lake to take your pics.
For me, the best quality was the fact it had in room spa pools, not spa baths which only seat 1-2 people. Another good feature is the fact that all the beds have electric blankets which is an absolute godsend on those cold winter nights and a year round outdoor heated pool.

Camellia Court Motel: Good price, fair accommodation
Extremely hospitable owners. We arrived there at like 4am in the morning and we were welcomed regardless of the time. One thing I would advise though is that you make arrangements for accomodation prior to arriving there and preferably during the daytime as a lot of places wont even open their door through the night.

This was something I learnt the hard way when I was travelling through Hamilton in the middle of the night.
This complex has a small playground for children. There are no stairs to have to climb for people who arent quite so steady on their feet. It is well away from the main road so is fairly quiet and peaceful. There is a supermarket nearby for all your grocery needs.

The accommodation here consists of the following:

Studio Unit NZD$75 - $95 per night (2 people)
1 Bedroom NZD $85 - $135 per night (2 people)
2 Bedroom NZD $120 - $150 per night (4 - 6 people)
Extra Person NZD $15

Cabins NZD$20 - $25 per night (2 - 6 people)

NB Bedding can be hired or you may supply your own. The communal kitchen has full ovens, microvave, fridge/freezer, and TV lounge. There are male and female shower and toilet blocks and a full guest laundry containing coin-operated washing machines and dryers.

Kips Way Bed & Breakfast: Kips Way Bed & Breakfast
When I was last in Taupo for the Wattyl's Cycle Challenge we decided to look for a nice Bed & Breakfast. That weekend over 10,000 people decend on Taupo makes accommodation pretty hard to come by. We booked this little B&B quite early on and I am glad we did! The couple who own the place, Pam and Martin are a really lovely retired locals. Pam cooks the most awesome breakfasts. They are very enthusistic about sports and the outdoors which suited us fine as we were there for the bike challenge!
There is a separate area for guests with a queen size bed in one room and twin beds in another. There is also a separate bathroom and toilet for guests.

Guests are able to use the family lounge to relax and watch TV or read and there is a garden patio area with awesome unobstructed views of the lake and mountains in the distance.

The B&B is really conveniently located just north of Taupo on the hill as you enter the town.

The cost was $110 per night per couple.

Like a racing locomotive, a proposal to upgrade the 110-mile railway between New London and Brattleboro, Vt. for enhanced freight and passenger service is a good idea picking up steam.
After more than two years of discussion, representatives of nine municipalities and five regional planning agencies from three states will meet Thursday for the anticipated signing of a memorandum of understanding supporting the so-called Central Corridor Line.
This project is well worth pursuing; an estimated $100 million investment to create a "knowledge web" railway, one that would make stops in communities proximate to more than 70,000 college students.
The initiative began as a grassroots effort but has won the support of the cities of Norwich, New London, Mansfield, Windham, Stafford, Palmer, Mass., Amherst, Mass., and Brattleboro, Vt., as well as five regional planning agencies representing communities in all three states.
At the invitation of Norwich, the group will formalize its intent at a meeting Thursday at the office of the Southeastern Connecticut Council of Governments, where representatives plan to sign the agreement.
The various parties want to collectively pursue funding, prepare a feasibility study of the proposed passenger service, create a business plan and seek federal and state permits required to make the corridor a passenger rail line.
Increasing highway congestion and escalating gas prices make train travel an attractive option.
This rail line, owned by New England Central Railroad, terminates at New London's deep-water port. The state is in the early stages of studying its three ports, including New London. Its link to the rail line is a vital asset that enhances the port's value. In addition to the potential for improved freight service, a renovated line could move passengers north from ferries, cruise ships and east-west trains.
There is much work ahead for the Central Corridor Line, but this level of cooperation bodes well for the project.

OldSchoolCool's Profile
Hi! I'm Teresa and I'm the "headmistress" of Old School Cool. Besides being addicted to anything cute, I'm also addicted to shopping. I enjoy searching high and low for great vintage and one of a kind pieces.
Old School Cool is the result of my insane quest for my very own Vintage Frye Tall Granny Lace-up Boots. In my search for those elusive boots, I have stumbled upon other forgotten treasures. Old School Cool now houses this collection.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you for looking! And remember, Old school is cool!

Paper 2 questions were also pretty good, as the Section B questions were quite varied. I'll wait until other people post until I realise where I've messed up..

From Frank Brady, who wrote one of the best-selling books on Bobby Fischer of all time and who was himself a friend of Fischer's, comes an impressively researched biography that for the first time completely captures the remarkable arc of Bobby Fischer's life. When Bobby Fischer passed away in January 2008, he left behind a confounding legacy. Everyone knew the basics of his life—he began as a brilliant youngster, then became the pride of American chess, then took a sharp turn, struggling with paranoia and mental illness. But nobody truly understood him.
What motivated Fischer from such a young age, and what was the source of his remarkable intellect? How could a man so ambivalent about money and fame be so driven to succeed? What drew this man of Jewish descent to fulminate against Jews, and how was it that a mind so famously disciplined could unravel so completely? From Fischer's meteoric rise, to an utterly dominant prime unequaled by any American chess player, to his eventual descent into madness, the book draws upon hundreds of newly discovered documents and recordings and numerous firsthand interviews conducted with those who knew Fischer best. It paints, for the very first time, a complete picture of one of America's most enigmatic icons. This is the definitive account of a fascinating man and an extraordinary life, one that at last reconciles Fischer's deeply contradictory legacy and answers the question, who was Bobby Fischer?
©2011 Frank Brady (P)2011 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
"The Mozart of the chessboard is inseparable from the monster of paranoid egotism in this fascinating biography. Brady, founding publisher of Chess Life magazine and a friend of Fischer, gives a richly detailed account of the impoverished Brooklyn wunderkind's sensational opening…Brady gives us a vivid, tragic narrative of a life that became a chess game." (Publishers Weekly)
"I learned something new on nearly every page of this wonderful book. Frank Brady is the perfect biographer for Bobby Fischer, and Endgame tells the full and fair story of Fischer's astonishing rise and heartbreaking fall." (Christopher Chabris, author of The Invisible Gorilla )
"Fischer is America's greatest antihero. This fascinating biography is filled with hope, Cold War intrigue, the fulfillment of genius, and an explosive fall from grace that is both deeply moving and, ultimately, profoundly sad." (Jeremy Silman, author of The Amateur's Mind)
"What can I say? It's a really good Fischer book"
This is what it says it is, a book of Fischers rise and fall. It's well written and covers Fischers life spectacularly. If you're interested in listening to a book about Fischer this is a no brainer. Great book.
"So much I never knew"
What a crazy ride he had. There were many things I never knew about Bobby. I am not a big chess person, but this story is so entertaining. It is hard to believe that all of this actually happen. You hear about the glory but never the struggles and madness of him. If you like books with interesting and unpredicatable characters, the read this book.
"great writing with absolutely brilliant narration"
enthralling, moving, intriguing
while the story was wonderful, i think the best thing about this particular book was the narration from Ray Porter.
THIS is the reason i love books from Audible. His delivery when speaking as various characters was brilliantly done. It felt like he was really speaking from each person's perspectives and angles. The different accents and tones he used while acting out each part was flawless.
I didn't laugh or cry but i felt like i couldn't get enough of it, i think a big part of this was the excellent narration.
The ending was a bit abrupt and leaves you hanging, i'm surprised i haven't seen any more comments on this. The book should have probably been a bit longer to finish properly.
It is number one audiobooks I had listened in it recently
Of course Boby cause hi is heart of the book
It amazing book I enjoyed every moment when listen to Amircan icon biography

"A Gifted Mind Gone to Waste"
I enjoy reading biographies and have always wanted to know more about Bobby Fischer. I suppose I've been living under a rock as I had no idea regarding his viscous antisemitism and his anger toward the U.S., especially after 9/11.
While you will learn about the young genius and how he became a champion at such an early age, on the flip side, you will learn about his paranoia about imagined Russian conspiracies, medical procedures and practices, and from being taken advantage of financially.
Ray Porter, in my opinion, has a gift at reading these long books and again, he turns in another strong performance (Ghost in the Wires was the first time I heard him).
Not a great book in terms of entertainment, but factually compelling, and if I were a chess player, I would probably say this is must reading to learn more about the history of championship chess during the late 50s through the early 70s.
"Details, and lots of them"
This book gives you a better overall picture of Bobby's life from early childhood until his death, much more focused on Bobby himself as a person as opposed to Bobby the Chess Champion.
Details about Bobby's wilderness years were very memorable, his quest for a normal life out of the spot light drove him to be a recluse.
"compassionte look at chess badboy"
This was a pick for my husband. He found some flaws in a few facts but overall he enjoyed the book. As a non-chess geek, I too had a good time listening. The narrator was fine but might have needed a little boost of caffeine now & then.
Fisher's is a sad story but this book brought a lot of light to his tale.
Highly recommended for anyone interested in Bobby Fisher. It felt like a complete, fair, and loving tribute to a brilliant, broken man.
I have a DLitt and Phil Degree which must imply a level of discernment? I just clocked over at 60. The significance is that I have read a whole lot of books. I'm now revisiting some of my all time favourites - and enjoying some first time round books. Books are my friends. Audible is JUST AMAZING - takes me back to pre -TV days, with my ear pressed to a crackly transistor radio - but now SO MUCH better and more 'classy' from a Kindle!
I can't say that I developed any feelings towards Bobby - maybe irritation and a desire to give him a lecture about pride in his country and a need to count his blessings and respect his talents....However, I would have felt better about this book if I could empathise with Bobby, understand what made him so 'dysfunctional', feel sad and sorry for him, appreciate his grievances and prejudices. But that is not the case. I was unmoved by his tantrums, disinterested in his achievements and uninspired by his wierd ways. The tragedy is that this book could have been about a fictional character. In fact I feel a whole lot closer to a dozen fictional characters than I do to the 'real' world famous Bobby Fischer. Is it Bobby (so cold and unable to connect); is it the author of the biography - or just me? I certainly won't be listing it for a must re-read before I die...I also won't be rushing off to sharpen my chess skills. This book could be a prescribed text book. It simply reported events and lacked'insights', interpretations and depth. I almost feel it did a disservice to Bobby. Maybe I'd brave another Bobby book - written from a more humanistic perspective. I think this failed...
"Great story with very good details"
Yes. Very interesting story of a very odd character.
The description on Fisher throughout different times in his life.
Yes. It was very compelling.
This story is well researched and well narrated. I loved this book and recommend it to everyone.
"Oh dear this is a story I did not need to hear."
I think Frank Brady is too much of a fan of Mr Fischer's chess and side steps the negative parts of his character and behaviour.
In the end however Mr Fischer's life is too petty and the story of his life will never make a 5 start listening experience. Hearing time and time again about how one stubbornly sabotages his own life, largely because he want's and bigger piece of the fame and money than others is not going to make good reading.
I think the most tragic aspect of this book is how others were willing to tolerate appalling bad behaviour and in some cases apologise for it all because of his beautiful chess playing.
During a time in Yugoslavia when the USA and other countries had trade sanctions in place because of ethnic cleansing and genocide Mr Fischer breaks economic sanctions and in effect helps to promote government who's key members later go on to war crimes trials. He was also openly is a tax evader.
The tragedy is that Mr Fischer largely escaped jail and punishment.
None, however the narration job by Ray Porter was quite good.

As the Chicago Bears stare nervously at their linebacker depth during Brian Urlacher's recovery from knee surgery, it's worth pointing out the myriad of ways teams can begin succession planning for key players. Sometimes it happens years in advance of the actual transition.
As we noted during the offseason, the Detroit Lions' offensive line is old enough that soon several positions will need to be turned over. Barring a surprise, the Lions will start the same five linemen this season as they did in 2010 and 2011. But the transition process has already begun.
We all know the Lions made Iowa's Riley Reiff their first-round draft pick in April. Reiff can play both tackle positions and has gotten a bit of work at guard in training camp, and it's fair to expect him to be a long-term starter beginning in 2013, if not before.
In addition, this week the Lions made the kind of low-level move that has helped them beef the roster throughout the tenure of general manager Martin Mayhew. They claimed offensive lineman Bill Nagy off waivers from the Dallas Cowboys, who were trying to place him on injured reserve after he had left ankle surgery. He started four games as a rookie in 2011 and was competing for the starting center job this season. He can also play guard.
Nagy has now had two surgeries on his left ankle, and he might not play for the Lions this season. But he is 24 and, if he can stay healthy, could be an option for the Lions as center Dominic Raiola (33) and right guard Stephen Peterman (30) approach the 2013 expiration of their contracts. The Cowboys were willing to risk losing him by trying to place him on injured reserve this week, requiring a trip through waivers, and that speaks to their assessment of him over the past 15 months.
But you have to start somewhere, and at this point, claiming Nagy costs nothing more than one spot on a 90-player roster. He could add to the Lions' options or he could leave them where they were before this week. Regardless, if you don't at least start the process until the established player is injured or can't play any longer, your options are limited.

The German political landscape is strewn with men who tried to take on Angela Merkel and failed. Sigmar Gabriel, the leader of the centre-left Social Democrats (SPD), is working hard to avoid the same fate.
Since the SPD's crushing defeat at the hands of Ms Merkel's conservatives in an election last September, no German politician has racked up as many political wins as the 54-year-old economy minister with keen political instincts and a knack for rousing speeches.
Mr Gabriel is holding his party together in the face of Ms Merkel's enduring popularity, a necessary first step towards giving the SPD another crack at power, even if it faces a long haul before voters will buy into that idea. After September's loss he went out on a limb to convince his fractious party to join forces with the Chancellor in a right-left "grand coalition", winning over his colleagues and securing policy concessions from Ms Merkel.
Since the coalition government took power seven months ago, the SPD has dominated the domestic policy agenda, with Mr Gabriel as Vice-Chancellor and minister for economic and energy issues.
He has reformed Germany's complex renewable energy law, a task that eluded Ms Merkel's previous centre-right government. His party has also delivered on minimum wage and pensions promises.
For the first time in over a decade, SPD officials say, infighting over the party's direction and leadership has subsided. In November, Mr Gabriel will become the longest serving SPD leader since Willy Brandt – though his five years is a far cry from Brandt's 23-year reign.
"In the party it's clear now, he's the number one," said Jan Stoess, leader of the Berlin branch of the SPD. "With the policies of the new government, he has pacified the SPD. The party is relatively happy now and relatively calm."
This is no mean feat. For the decade since the SPD chancellor Gerhard Schroeder's welfare reforms the party has endured rows between its left and right wings.
It has switched leaders five times since 2004. In the 2009 election, support for the SPD crashed to a post-war low of 23 per cent. In September it didn't do much better, with 26 per cent.
Mr Gabriel, who was born in the northern town of Goslar and became one of Germany's youngest state premiers at the age of 40, is a pragmatist who can bridge the gap between left and right. "You should neither bury [Mr Schroeder's reform] nor treat it like a monument to lay wreaths at every day," he said in 2008.
However, to have a chance of reclaiming the chancellery in 2017, when he could face Merkel or her successor as leader of the conservative Christian Democrats (CDU), pollsters say Mr Gabriel must vault the party back above the 30 per cent mark and improve on his own popularity ratings.
So far, despite his policy triumphs and the newfound party harmony, that improvement hasn't happened.
In a Forsa poll this week, 62 per cent of voters said they preferred Ms Merkel in a theoretical two-way race for chancellor, compared with just 11 per cent for Mr Gabriel, dismissively referred to as "Siggi Pop" in the early 2000s when he was briefly the SPD's representative for pop culture.
"Overall, his image has improved," said pollster Matthias Jung of Forschungsgruppe Wahlen. "But Ms Merkel is in another league."
Ms Merkel and Mr Gabriel worked together in her first coalition with the SPD from 2005-2009. The leak in 2010 of a confidential text message from Mr Gabriel, then leader of the opposition, to Ms Merkel about a candidate for the presidency caused tension, but they have patched things up.
To address what even SPD members describe as a "seriousness deficit", Mr Gabriel, has taken a page out of Ms Merkel's book, by hunkering down, working hard and keeping quiet. He regularly puts in 17 or 18 hour days; he gives fewer interviews. To soften his image he has opened up about his personal life, talking about his estrangement from a Nazi father. He sets aside Wednesday afternoons to pick up his daughter from nursery.
But if Ms Merkel does run for a fourth term in 2017, Mr Gabriel's chances are slim. The "Mutti" (Mummy) of the nation is riding a wave of popularity unprecedented in post-war German history.

As many of you know, I'm highly concerned about taking steps for EMF protection. The harmful electro-magnetic radiation (EMR) in our environment—and what things like cell phones and their towers, microwave ovens, and more are doing to our health. But what many of us don't realize is that we, and our children who are extremely vulnerable to EMR exposure, are also getting a dose in our video game systems.
Many video game systems use Wi-Fi which emits EMR, and I'm a big proponent of banning Wi-Fi in our schools. There is no evidence that the frequencies emitted by Wi-Fi are safe, and there is plenty of data on sensitive kids getting headaches, cardiac arrhythmias, and more while at school. These symptoms wane when they are out of the school buildings for weekends and vacations.
But while I was at a Wireless Safety Summit this fall, I learned about another disturbing fact. Our kids are being exposed to radio frequency when using video game systems like Xbox and Wii (I don't know about PlayStation). I heard from environmental engineers doing testing in the field that these wireless video game systems emit dangerous EMR, and those emissions continue even when these video game systems are turned off.
So, What Can You Do for EMF Protection?
We don't have those video game systems at our home, so I don't know if there is any warning in the fine print of the packaged game systems. The only way to keep these video game systems from emitting a signal and get EMF protection is to unplug them.
But if you do choose to use Wi-Fi video game systems, here's how to help ensure your family's EMF protection. Unplug them when they are not in use, and do the same with your computer's wireless router when no one is using it. Also, please pass this info to other parents and grandparents who are most likely just as in the dark about these video game systems as I was.
Now it's your turn: How do you protect your children EMF radiation?

The clock is ticking for those people who have money sitting in dormant bank accounts. Next year, the Government plans to siphon off an estimated £400m held in accounts that have seen no customer activity for the past 15 years and use it to fund youth projects and other good causes.
The second reading of the Bill legalising the account grab is taking place on 6 October, and bank and building society insiders are urging people who think they have money in dormant accounts to get their skates on and reclaim their cash.
Rachel Le Brocq of the Building Societies Association (BSA) reckons that the money will start leaving accounts destined for government coffers as soon as next summer. "It is important to note that, even after distribution, the money legally remains the property of the account holder," she says, "but it would be easier on all concerned – including the charities set to benefit – if people come forward now rather than wait for the account to be closed and the money moved away."
The BSA, the British Bankers' Association (BBA) and National Savings and Investments have joined forces to set up the website mylostaccount.org.uk, which aims to reunite savers with their money.
However, Ms Le Brocq admits that success in tracking down a dormant account through the site is far from guaranteed: "The account holder logs on to the website and inputs their personal data, as many previous addresses as they have and as much as they know about the account that may be missing. This info is then forwarded to any financial institutions in their area or specifically mentioned in the application. They then search their records and see if an account exists. This takes up to three months to complete and the more information offered initially the more likely the success of the search."
Those people who manage to find a dormant account in their name will be expected to jump through security hoops before they get their cash, Ms Le Brocq adds. "They will be asked to produce identity documents to prove they are who they say they are. Which documents and whether originals or copies suffice will vary between financial institutions."
Not all financial institutions are relying on mylostaccount's "if we will build it, they will come" approach. Some, most notably the Halifax, are actively seeking out people who may have a dormant account with them.
Claire Miller, spokeswoman for Halifax, says: "We have written to the last address we have for our dormant customers and also asked the credit reference agency Experian to track people down for us who might have moved.
"We then write to them and give them the option of moving money to another account or signing a piece of paper to ensure it is no longer dormant, protecting it from being siphoned off."
To date, Halifax has managed to reunite more than 7,000 customers with nearly £17m in cash. But the bank estimates that there is still more than £30m languishing in its accounts.
Some smaller building societies are following a similar approach but in a less high-profile way, Ms Le Brocq saysp. "They are going through their records and writing to members they haven't heard from in 15 years. They are speaking to the local press and some are even employing credit reference agencies to trace customers on a case-by-case basis.
"However, there has to be a cost benefit analysis done. Some of the accounts won't have enough cash in them to warrant going to the expense of a trace."

Comments about Fender American Vintage '52 Telecaster Left Handed Electric Guitar:
I was looking for my first high end electric guitar. I was always a man of two things. Gibson and humbuckers. That enough should prove how nice this guitar is that it made me change my mind set in a complete 180 degrees. It is really hard to find a good guitar being left handed. I figured I should give a Telecaster a try because its one of those greats that you hear about. I didn't have a lot of hope though since I thought the Stratocaster was really uncomfortable to play. I picked it up and without even playing it I was surprised with the feel. I always liked thin C necks for the most part and figured I would hate the neck but it wasnt as thick as I was expecting. It felt right. How a neck should feel. I really like the feel of it. I plugged it into a Fender amp. I don't remember which one it was but it was a tube Fender amp. I played one chord and couldn't believe the tone. I fell in love with it and the feel is amazing. Its a guitar that I can play all day and I never get tired of. this is now my favorite guitar! The Telecaster just has a special tone that only it can create. I never liked single coils because I figured they couldn't even compete with a humbucker when distortion was introduced. Boy was I wrong haha this guitar cranked up can get really really heavy! You can play any punk or metal on it. It squeals really well too! But it is so versatile because then you can go back to clean and play your country chiken pickin or post rock! Whatever you need this guitar has it! The simplicity of the design is a super turn on cosmetically too in my opinion. I recomend this guitar to anyone for anything. Best guitar I have ever played to this day.
