The following post is by MPFJ staff writer, Kevin Mercadante, who is a professional personal finance blogger, and the owner of his own personal finance blog, OutOfYourRut.com. He has a background in both accounting and the mortgage industry.
There are more than a few tax breaks that most people are not aware of, but using just one or a combination of several could reduce your income tax bill considerably. If any of these apply to you, you may be getting more money back from the IRS than you think.
Medicare insurance premiums
If you receive Social Security income, you will get a Form 1099G that reports your income to the IRS. That form will also include the amount of Medicare premiums you paid for the year. That premium is deductible as a medical expense on Form 1040 Schedule A.
Medical expenses are deductible to the extent they exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income (AGI), which means you'll want to make the medical total as large as possible. Medicare premiums paid will help you get there.
Even better, if you're self-employed, you can deduct a portion of them from your gross income even if you don't itemize.
Overlooked medical deductions
Remember that 7.5% of AGI threshold you have to exceed in order to be able to get the benefit of the medical expense deduction? Fortunately, there's a lot that goes into medical, including insurance premiums paid (and not already deducted on your W2), hospital stays, doctor visits, medical tests and prescriptions—you probably know all about those already.
But, did you also know that you can deduct dental and vision expenses? In addition, you can deduct the cost of transportation to and from medical facilities, including medical mileage at 23 cents per mile. It will take a lot to get to 7.5% of your AGI, so consider all of these expenses to help you get there.
Job hunting expenses
The IRS allows you to deduct job hunting expenses to the extent they exceed 2% of your AGI. The threshold may not be much of a problem if the expenses are incurred in a year when you were unemployed for much of the year. A low AGI will mean that the 2% limit is also low.
You can deduct the cost of printing, postage, job agency fees, and travel expenses for interviews (only if you paid). If that travel involved driving your own car, you can deduct the IRS per mile expense allowance.
Tax preparation fees
Any expenses paid in connection with the preparation of your income tax returns is deductible, also subject to 2% of AGI. You can also include any legal or professional fees incurred in connection with research specifically related to your income tax return, as well as postage fees.
Investment expenses
Investment management fees, account maintenance fees, and the costs of books, manuals, and periodicals related to your investment activities can be deducted. This deduction is also subject to the 2% of AGI limitation, but as you can see, if you have enough of these various deductions, you can clear the threshold and get a decent additional deduction, just by reporting expenses you already pay.
Volunteer expenses
A lot of people do volunteer work, but did you know that you can also deduct expenses incurred in connection with that effort? The IRS allows a 14 cents per mile deduction on volunteer related driving, and you can also deduct the cost of donated items. This may come about as a result of you purchasing supplies or various sundry items used in connection with the volunteer effort. Keep your receipts—you'll need to use them at tax time.
Energy efficient upgrades
This credit applied through 2011, and allows for a tax credit of up to 30% of the purchase price of certain energy efficient equipment installed in your home, up to a maximum of credit of $1,500. Included are energy efficient equipment like furnaces, air conditioners and water heaters, and even attic insulation, energy efficient windows and doors, and certain new roofs. The credit is only for new equipment installed on an existing owner occupied home.
This credit was scheduled to expire at the end of 2011. However, save any receipts and documentation for such upgrades purchased and installed in 2012 and 2013. This was established as a temporary credit, but such credits have a history of being resurrected retroactively well after the fact, and even after the tax year to which they apply.
Additional state income tax assessments
Have you ever gotten a notice from the state income tax agency informing you that you owe additional tax for a previous year? That notice isn't good news, but you can recover some of it by deducting it in the year you pay it.
Non-cash charitable deductions
Most of us are aware that cash contributions to charities are deductible, but you can also deduct non-cash contributions of used clothing and household goods. You're probably familiar with these from the pick-up services from the various charities that call looking for donations of goods. Keep a record of what you contribute and who it was you gave them to. The pick up service usually provides a card to confirm the pick up and you can enter the contents and estimated value when you get it.
Don't overlook this deduction. Several pick-ups per year can provide you with hundreds of dollars of extra charitable deductions. Just be aware that any single donation valued at over $500 will require additional documentation.
Mortgage points
If you pay mortgage points (one point is one percent of the mortgage loan amount) when you buy a house, you can deduct the full amount in the year you bought the home. The rules are more involved for refinances.
When you pay points in connection with the refinance of an existing mortgage, you can amortize the cost of the points over the life of the loan. For example, if you paid points to refinance your old mortgage into a new 30 year mortgage, you can deduct 1/30th of the amount of the points paid for each year.
If you pay the loan off at any time during the term of the mortgage, you can deduct the full amount of the remaining, amortized refinance points in the year of the payoff.
Please note that any of the above deductions and credits may change by tax filing time. Some are the result of "Bush-era tax cuts" that may or not apply in 2012 or 2013, and are currently subject to review. Please check with your tax advisor for the rules specific to your circumstances.
How about you all? What tax deductions do you take advantage of the most and which do you often find yourself overlooking?

iHandbag Casing Turns the iPhone into an Instant Handbag
Turn your iPhone instantly into a chic-looking handbag with the this cool iHandbag iPhone casing. While it's still not yet a buyable product, this cool handbag-shaped iPhone case by Korean designer Jin-wong Koo of 'Nothing Design Group' sure does make the iPhone look more stylish than it already is on its own.
With the display screen facing front, perhaps a nice display picture can be displayed while it is being carried to add to a get-up. Or maybe it can be carried by models while walking on a catwalk. Unlike the bag or pouch-type casing, the iHandbag's most striking feature is that the iPhone still maintains its look as a handbag as there is no need to remove the phone from the casing in order to use it.
Even with the screen facing outwards, with a screen protector that's pretty much mandatory for the iPhone there'll be absolutely nothing to worry about.
Not only does the iHandbag come with ability to hold the iPhone, stuff like credit cards and business cards can also fit inside for convenience. The good thing is that it's definitely possible to come up with many custom designs for iPhone cases like this so there will always be one that'll fit the occasion.
A trendy and creative twist to the conventional design of the common iPhone casing.

Goshawk Portrait
The Goshawk is a well-built hawk that is widespread but scarce and elusive bird that is usually found in woodlands.
They look like a large Sparrow-hawk, but in fact the female Goshawk is about the size of a Buzzard and the male Goshawk is slightly bigger than a female Sparrowhawk.
Both sexes have close horizontally barred underparts and a broadly barred grey tail. The broad whitish eyebrows (supercilia) and piercing orange eyes make the Goshawk evil-looking. The cere (flesh at the base of the bill) is greenish-yellow and the legs are yellow.
The male (or tercel) is smaller than the female and has a dark patch behind the eye that makes it appear even more fearsome. The female (or falcon) is browner than the male and is the heaviest bird of the genus Accipiter.
The birds eyes were intriguing the bright orange colour begged for attention. the slight catch-light in the eye is from natural light.
The blurred background is actually partially a wall and some ivy growing up it.
A 70-200mm 2.8 lens was used at 2.8 to reduce Depth of Field.
Juveniles are paler and browner, with teardrop marks on its underparts and greenish eyes.
The image was a commission for the raptor's owner and the finished article was 20 x 30 inch canvas print for the clients wall.
Various images were presented to the client such as the bird in flight and full length portraits, this was the client's pick.

Funky Gannet
Funky Gannet
This Image of a Gannet was taken at Bempton Cliffs Last year. I had been
photographing Gannets in flight like most of the big lenses there
when I spotted this guy having an argument with another Gannet that had
decided to spend sometime bombing him and pecking his head. this image was taken mid attack and I thought
it looked pretty funky..
Would love to know what he was thinking at this moment in time. maybe he was thinking about re-taliating or how best
to avoid the attacks of his peer.
Bempton cliffs is a wonderful place to see a vast array of wildlife and birds, well worth a visit anytime
of the year.
There is an abundance of butterflies, wild flowers and a fantastic view from the cliff tops. I tend to visit early
morning before most people are out of bed.
This time of year is especially good for visiting and rarely seen birds.
The sunrises can be very dramatic at certain times of the year and the feeling of space is fantastic
and Oh did I mention the wildlife?

Illegal Pheasants Run Up A Bill
Sun., Nov. 17, 1996
Two Washington state hunters paid $2,875 in fines and restitution last week in Montana for having too many pheasant in their possession - 59 too many.
But one of them says it was a bad rap, and Montana ought to raise its possession limits, especially for people who spend as much money there as he and his friends do.
Montana hunters may kill three cock pheasants a day during the season and may have no more than nine in possession.
Donald R. Porter, 54, of Greenwater, Wash., and Jerry D. Hansen, 54, of Enumclaw, Wash., both loggers, had 77 cleaned and frozen birds in their rig when a warden forced them to pull over on Montana 200 north of Helena. They had driven past an FWP check station, where law requires hunters to stop, and Hill drove after them.
Hill said Hansen, who was driving, first refused to show his hunting license. The excess birds were found during a search of the vehicle.
Porter told the Great Falls Tribune that he and Hansen and five companions had hunted off and on for five days in Montana, and that the extra birds belonged to the friends.
Porter said the fines and restitution were "the price you pay for getting caught."
He said Montana should increase the possession limits to accommodate people who hunt for extended periods. He said his group spends upwards of $10,000 in the state every year, and he suggested that most Montanans would prefer to have the state get the revenue rather than limit the number of pheasants killed.
Stan Meyer of Great Falls, chairman of the Fish, Wildlife and Parks Commission, said the limits were set to prevent a group of hunters from damaging specific pheasant populations by killing so many in the course of an extended hunt.
Porter said the men have been hunters for 15 years in the Judith Basin. That tradition will be on hold for awhile. A judge ordered the men to pay the state $25 for each illegal bird and suspended their Montana hunting and fishing licenses for three years.

Madonna, the pop singer-turned-director, will be in Berlin this Saturday to present footage from her W.E. to overseas distributors. Sales agent IM Global will be screening clips to around 200 invited guests but has held back from making any pre-sales until now. This is a tactic which IM Global used successfully before with A Single Man. "We think distributors are going to get a huge buzz out of the quality of what they will see," IM Global CEO Stuart Ford tells me. "Sometimes there's no substitute for letting the footage and the filmmaker speak for themselves." W.E. stars Abbie Cornish as a modern-day New Yorker obsessed with the royal love story between Britain's King Edward VII (James D'Arcy) and American divorcee Wallis Simpson (Andrea Riseborough). The pic is still in post and will be for several months.
Director Madonna To Debut 'W.E.' Saturday
12 Comments
I'll be very interested to see this movie. When I saw King's Speech I felt there has to be some huge reason why George gave up his throne. Either he was into B&D or his wife allowed him to be gay, or something. Whatever Madonna will have the goods. It's a story that only she can tell. And it will be delightful to see how that moron Piers Morgan will try and fail to book her as a guest on his pathetic show.
Bit confused. The movie is about Edward who abdicated so that he could marry American Divorcee. The Kings Speech is about his younger brother George who became King on Edwards abdication. George never gave up the thrown I believe he died in the 1950's from throat cancer and the current Queen Elizabeth succeeded him.
Can this chick please just give it up and retire already?!
Can the haters just shut up? Let the movie speak for itself.
Madonna rulz.
madonna is the queen of pop
long live the queen
Madonna is brilliant and a wonderful sharing person. She is not afraid to do anything. Anything she generates is usually very interesting. I for one will look forward to her film. She is smart, passionate and interesting. Congratulations Madonna keep it up in this life and beyond.
Um, I can't see why people always overlook the fact King Eddie and Wallace Simpson were NAZI SYMPATHIZERS who were tight pals with Hitler and gave him secret government info during the war to help Germany win so Hitler could become dictor of Europe and re-instate Edwards as leader of Britain.
I couldn't care less for Madonna's or anyone else's interpretation of W & E's love for one another. They were disgusting human beings.
You're right, but look on the bright side: it's even more likely that this will be an enormous steaming pile that will sweep the 2012 Razzies. On second thought, imagine how deliciously awful this could be if Madonna really DID try to cover the treacherous-fascists angle?
It's about King Edward VIII. King Edward VII was his grandfather.
I'm sure this movie will be interesting but The King's Speech kind of steals a bit of its thunder no?
The directorial debut I am looking forward to most in 2011 is ANGELINA JOLIE. I have confidence her film will be quality if not uber-depressing.
WE is about Edward. I get all those old royals mixed up too. But why would any guy give up the kingdom for love? I'm sure Madonna has the answer. Go, Madge!
I can't wait to see the film. Cheers to you, Madonna and Alek.

Word Play is keen to join in the hoopla surrounding the London Olympics. Fortunately, the Tenors (formerly the Canadian Tenors) have offered the chance. For Canadian coverage of the 2012 Games, the group recorded a new version of I Believe, the anthem that, as sung by Nikki Yanofsky, was ubiquitous during the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.
As others have noted, one line continues to make mincemeat of standard grammar. "I believe together we'll fly," they sing. "I believe in the power of you and I." The inconvenient fact remains that "of" is a preposition and requires an object (me) rather than a subject (I).
Pop singers have been torturing us for years with variations on the theme. Consider Spice Girls alumna Mel C ("So things will never be the same between you and I"), Susan Aglukark ("There's a place for you and I") and Eric Carmen ("I feel the magic between you and I").
But surely, before the Tenors wrapped their powerful voices around I Believe, they might have arranged with the songwriters to revise the lyrics to ease the pain. For instance: I believe in the power of two/ I believe in me and you. Or, I believe in unity/ I believe in you and me. Or, on the heretical grounds that there are already enough "I believes" in the song: There is power in harmony/ I believe in the power of you and me. Or: There's strength in solidarity/ I believe in the power of you and me.
Okay, I'll stop beating a dead chorus. Let's tackle other slow-moving targets.
Diana Tyndale reports hearing the following sentence on a CBC Radio newscast: "Most economists were unanimous that interest rates would stay the same." She comments: "Unanimous (except for the ones who weren't)."
Dozens of sharp-eyed readers contacted Word Play after seeing a July 7 photograph illustrating a story about summer school. In the photo, a hand-written sign mounted inside a school said: "Welcome! Summer School Office. Accelerated courses (posted on pillers)."
William Vance said the spelling error "conjured up the image of notices pasted all over a doctor (or a stoner?)." The surprise is that whoever wrote the sign – let's hope it wasn't the English teacher – was able to spell "accelerated" but was tripped up by "pillars."
Maureen Fisher was startled to read, in a Globe letter to the editor last Saturday, that former U.S. vice-president Al Gore had once compared the search for unconventional sources of oil "to the behaviour of advanced heroine addicts." Oh sure, they start off with Jane Eyre and Elizabeth Bennet, but soon they want the derring-do of Hermione Granger and Alien's Ripley.
Charles Crockford was amused by a dangling modifier in this sentence from a June 11 story in the Waterloo Region Record. "The biggest challenge for the campers appeared to be the cockroaches that crawl about at night as they bed down in sleeping bags." Crockford comments: "I can see it now – hundreds of cockroaches, each one carrying its own tiny sleeping bag!"
While others look after the roaches, permit me to grumble about a few bugbears.
"Centre around" continues to pop up, as in: "Arguments against Toronto's bag-fee system centre around the minimal percentage (by weight) that bags contribute to landfills." A centre is by definition in the middle. It can't surround the middle. A thing may centre on something, but it can't centre around it.
A correspondent on television's eTalk said actors were sent to a boot camp in "conditions similar as" those in wartime. Similar to, please.
And an article about KFC's Double Down said the chain's food item was "replacing deep-fried chicken pieces for a bun." No, it was either replacing a bun with deep-fried chicken pieces or substituting deep-fried chicken pieces for a bun. I believe together they'll fry.Report Typo/Error

Kha (Bengali)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from খ)
- For a more general overview encompassing other Indic scripts, see Ka (Indic)
The Bengali letter খ is derived from the Siddhaṃ , and is marked by the lack of a horizontal head line, unlike its Devanagari counterpart, ख. The inherent vowel of Bengali consonant letters is /ɔ/, so the bare letter খ will sometimes be transliterated as "kho" instead of "kha". Adding okar, the "o" vowel mark, খো, gives a reading of /kho/.
Like all Indic consonants, খ can be modified by marks to indicate another (or no) vowel than its inherent "a".
খ in Bengali-using languages[edit]
খ is used as a basic consonant character in all of the major Bengali script orthographies, including Bengali and Assamese.
Conjuncts with খ[edit]
Bengali খ does not exhibit any irregular conjunct ligatures, beyond adding the standard trailing forms of ব, য ya-phala, and র ra-phala, and the leading repha form of র.[1]
- খ্ + ব [kh+ba] gives us the ligature
- খ্ + য [kh+ya] gives us the ligature
- খ্ + র [kh+ra] gives us the ligature
- while র্ + খ [r+kha] gives us the ligature

Chapter 17 - 23 Summary
Emma and Dexter are now engaged. Emma is proud of Dexter, and proud to have him meet her family. They holiday at a cottage in North Yorkshire, where Dexter begins working on his wedding vows.
Dexter realizes he is slowly getting old, between more hair on his face and gray hairs on his head. He is also gaining some weight. He and Emma are trying to have a baby. They also take opposing points of view on the Iraq War. Emma is to the left politically, while Dexter is to the right. Dexter is also much more apathetic toward politics, while Emma is enmeshed in them. Dexter is unhappy as well at the thought of turning forty in two weeks. They agree to meet later to view a house. In a rainstorm, riding her bike to the address, Emma is killed when she is hit by a car.
The morning after their first night together, Emma discovers Dexter is getting ready to leave, having not wanted to wake her. They decide to spend the day together.
Ian Whitehead writes Dexter a letter, telling him that Emma would have wanted him to move on, and get his life in order. Dexter is drunk on the anniversary of Emma's death. He goes to a strip club, gets thrown out violently. It is Sylvie who takes care of Dexter after the bar, as does Dexter's father, who brings Dexter to his house and takes care of him.
Emma suggests she, Dexter, and Tilly climb Arthur's Seat, a large hill. Tilly can't go, and so Emma and Dexter go alone. Dexter is impressed with the view.
Dexter has now been seeing Maddy, the manager of the cafe, for two months. Dexter has moved into a new flat, but is still resoundingly sad. Dexter goes through Emma's old things, and finds old photographs and memorabilia. One of them is a photograph of them both at Arthur's Seat.
Dexter, Maddy, and Jasmine are in Edinburgh for a holiday. Dexter brings Jasmine around the city, and shows her Arthur's Seat, bringing her up to the top of the hill. It causes Dexter to reflect on the afternoon with Emma. Following the hillside adventure, Dexter's parents, who have arrived to pick him up, invite Emma out to dinner, but Emma declines. Dexter then gives her his phone number, and tells her to call him.
Chapter 17 - 23 Analysis
As if anything else could happen, not only do Dexter and Emma end up together, they get married and seek to have children. They are opposites in many ways, but strikingly similar in others. While Dexter appears to be right-of-center politically, Emma is clearly left-of-center. Dexter is more reserved and rational about certain things, while Emma is more passionate and lively. Nevertheless, Dexter and Emma support one another, and watch out for the other, no matter what. Consider Emma's unfailing support in Dexter's decision to open up a cafe.
Just as Dexter and Emma are about to enter middle age, and begin a new phase in their lives, Emma is killed in a freak accident when a car hits her while she is riding her bike to meet Dexter. All of the happiness that they have shared for two years -and most of their lives- has suddenly ended. The consequences of Emma's death, and the immensity of love that existed between them, is discovered in the downfall that Dexter experiences after her passing. What existed between Emma and Dexter was clearly not just friendship, but real love.
The reader is here reminded of Dexter's promise to marry Emma when she is 40, if she is still single. Emma is 39 and married when she dies. The irony is not only tragic, but heart-wrenching as well.
By the end of the novel, Dexter and his father have come to terms, with Dexter's father caring for him in the middle of his depression. The love of family is further contrasted between the love of father and daughter -Dexter and Jasmine- and the love of Dexter and Emma, as shown in the Arthur's Seat episode at the end of the book. Indeed, Dexter's single act of giving Emma his phone number, and asking her to call him, will set the rest of their lives on a course for the other.

Therefore, many employees get better result of health checkups than that of last year, and they are is satisfied with them.
ROHM also regularly conducts "measurements of workplace environments." These measurements cover even environments where the risk of direct exposure to hazardous substances or chemicals is low. For more than 20 years straight, the workplace at ROHM's Head Office (a total of 207 sites were measured in 2013) has been ranked "first class," which means the workplace environment is appropriately managed.
Measures for mental health
Mental health workshop for administrators
As measure for employee mental health, ROHM provides seminars on mental health and relaxation. In 2015, 71 persons participated in a mental health workshop for administrators. A resident nurse (psychological counseling staff) is assigned to the company's medical office.
Furthermore, ROHM provides for examination by an occupational health physician when necessary.
ROHM will continue to monitor signs of poor health condition for each type of job and age category, require all employees who work more than 80 hours per month after office hours to see an occupational health physician, and work to improve mental care and the workplace environment.

Let's Walk Club
ROHM created a "Health Promotion Committee" to maintain and promote health, and organize various activities to promote the health of its employees.
A typical event of ROHM's, the "Let's Walk Club," is one such activity. This event is held every spring and autumn. After walking for several kilometers and enjoying the season and scenery, employees and their families interact with one another by playing various games and participating in different events, and spend a pleasant and healthy holiday. In 2015, 592 employees participated in the two events in spring and autumn. Also, a "walking campaign," in which employees challenge a goal of walking 910,000 steps total or 10,000 steps every day for 91 days from September 1 to November 30 was held in 2015 and 464 employees participated in the campaign.
Every year, we hold a variety of sports events that give management staff, employees, and their families the chance to socialize with one another while working up a sweat.
Health promotion program at overseas production company
The production company in Thailand provides employees and cafeteria chefs with dietary education in cooperation with the Thai Health Promotion Foundation, a specialized agency of the Thai government. In addition, a health station has been established in the company's convenience store that sells health drinks and has a scale and blood pressure monitor available free for use, establishing a system to increase health awareness among employees.
Stakeholder Voice From a specialized agency of the Thai government
Working together with the Thai Health Promotion Foundation (Thai Health*) to implement a health promotion program
In Thailand, there are few companies even today in which management staff and other employees share their views on the importance of workplace health promotion and where employees' health and happiness are promoted. In response, the ROHM Group's production company in Thailand utilizes Thai Health's 'Happy Workplace Program' to maintain a mid- to long-term vision in which the company comes together to achieve a healthy and comfortable work climate. We were extremely impressed by their sincere efforts.

The B-17F Black Jack lays undisturbed on a sandy seabed, in deep water just off the fringing reef from the remote village of Boga Boga, and is what many consider to be the best aircraft wreck in Papua New Guinea.
"Black Jack", serial number 41-24521, was one of the first B-17F Flying Fortress bombers built at the Seattle Boeing factory during WWII.
The plane was delivered to the US Army in July 1942 at a cost of $314,109 and then flown to Australia.
In September 1942 Black Jack was assigned to 63d Bombardment Squadron in Port Moresby.

The Role of Development Agency in an Innovative-Based Regional Development Process
In this study, the role of development agencies, in the innovative based regional development process, in the context of Turkey as an example, will be examined. In today's information age economy, regional development can be achieved through canalizing regional sources to the technological development activities which will provide some competitive advantages. Innovation, which can be defined as the creation of new ideas and their implementation to economic activities, is the main source of long run economic growth performance. That the regions become prominent as the main fact of the information intensity capitalism has brought forward some changes and conversion in the regional policies as well. The aim of this study is to examine the role of the regional development agencies in the regional development policies in which the innovation process in Turkey is the determiner and to offer suggestions by relying on the EU experience.

OPIS: Gas Retailers Saw Lowest Margins Yet in 2007
The report also finds Chevron is again the top gas retailer by highest premiums compared to its competition.
WALL, N.J. -- Motor fuel retailers suffered the lowest margins as a percent of revenue in 2007, and to date in 2008, it has been worse, according to the Oil Price Information Service's (OPIS) fourth annual Retail Year in Review and 2008 Profit Outlook.
The situation was caused by the 2007 spring price hike, which started on Jan. 20, 2007, and raised wholesale prices 85 percent, according to the organization. In 2008, the gas market appeared to have bottomed on Feb. 7, but is currently 20 cents per gallon higher, OPIS stated.
In addition, the OPIS report includes a ranking system for fuel retailers, called the OPIS Brand Power results, which is based on the margins one brand is able to extract against its direct competition at the pump, the organization stated.
In the category of brands with more than 1,000 sites, Chevron achieved the top spot on the ranking for the fourth straight year, with a premium of 2.53 cents more per gallon premium than its competition. The second, third and fourth place rankings were taken by Shell, BP and Texaco, respectively, according to the report.
On the other end of the spectrum, aggressive convenience store chains, including Arco and other hypermarket formats were among those ranked lowest, OPIS stated.
In addition, the report found Shell had the largest market share estimate, while Wawa was rated the most efficient, a figure found by dividing the chain's market share by its outlet share. The second highest ranked retailer by efficiency was QuikTrip, being the most efficient in four of its eight regions, OPIS stated. Other winners in various categories included BP, Texaco, Speedway, Shell, Exxon, Mobil and Conoco, according to OPIS.

Rosa Parks Remembered
At that time, Jim Crow laws in place since the post-Civil War Reconstruction separated blacks and whites on buses, in restaurants and public accommodations throughout the South, while in the North, legally sanctioned racial discrimination kept blacks out of many jobs and neighborhoods. In the face of these realities, Mrs. Parks, a seamstress, and an active member of the local chapter of the NAACP, was riding on a city bus on Dec. 1, 1955, when a white man demanded her seat. Mrs. Parks refused, despite laws requiring blacks to give up their seats to whites. Two black Montgomery women had been arrested earlier that year on the same charge, but Mrs. Parks was jailed. She also was also fined $14.
The arrest of Mrs. Parks spurred a 381 day boycott of the public transit system by black people, organized by a young Baptist minister, Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. This boycott led to a court ruling desegregating public transportation in Montgomery, but it wasn't until the 1964 Civil Rights Act that all public accommodations nationwide were desegregated. Having recieved death threats and having lost her job, Mrs. Parks relocated from Alabama to Detroit in 1957.
Looking back in 1988, Mrs. Parks said she worried that young black people took legal equality for granted. Older blacks, she said "have tried to shield young people from what we have suffered. And in so doing, we seem to have a more complacent attitude. We must double and redouble our efforts to try to say to our youth, to try to give them an inspiration, an incentive and the will to study our heritage and to know what it means to be black in America today."
At a celebration in her honor that same year, she said: "I am leaving this legacy to all of you ... to bring peace, justice, equality, love and a fulfillment of what our lives should be. Without vision, the people will perish, and without courage and inspiration, dreams will die - the dream of freedom and peace."
In my work as a nurse, I encounter and work with many inspiring and dignified black elders. Elders who answer my questions "Yessuh" or "Nosuh" as second nature. I gently tell them my name was Xavier, not "Suh" and then address them as "Sir" and "Mahm" while tending their wounds. It's a delicate waltz of trust and respect begun by Mrs. Parks, and still being danced today. It is my privilege to have participated in it.
Godspeed Mrs. Rosa.

Echoes of Steel Magnolias ring faintly around this Yuletide tale of self-deception. But where in 1989, Herbert Ross went for grand emotions in the true Hollywood style, ten years on Tonie Marshall has produced a subtly melancholic study of vanity, fear and isolation.
Scarred by a past affair, Angele (Baye) regularly leaves the beauty salon where she works, in search of casual sex. It's her way of fighting off the realities of age and loneliness that her clients seek to combat with the various massages, lotions and heat treatments available from her callously prim boss, Nadine (Ogier). So, when romance does rear its head, in the form of stranger, Antoine (Le Bihan), she dismisses his protestations of love. But Antoine's devotion proves stronger than her determination.
Most Hollywood fortysomethings would sell their capped teeth for the role of Angele. Yet few could match the brittle belligerence of Baye, who seems to have never given a bad performance during her 25-year career. The entire mood of the action takes its tone from Angele's psychological state, which veers from disappointed to distrustful without ever making her seem an unsympathetic character. But this is also an ensemble piece, with an engagingly eccentric collection of clients seeking solace each time they pass through the front door (which tinkles on opening, to suggest entry into a pastel-lit land of make-up-believe). Angele's colleagues are also deftly drawn, with the crotchety Samantha (Mathilde Seigner) seemingly content in her promiscuity and the sweetly inept Marie (Audrey Tautou) slowly succumbing to the attentions of a dashing widower (Robert Hossein).
A mockingly fond portrait of modern Parisiennes, this is also disarmingly honest on the lengths women are prepared to go to keep faith with themselves. Consequently the ending - with its unnecessary moment of melodramatic madness - is disappointingly traditional after so much invention and intrigue.

We on about rear fogs right?
Ah... No. you must have at least one working rear fog lamp (on the drivers side). i was speaking of front fogs.... sorry matey...
Back to the electrics tomorrow.
Looks great, some awesome parts too !!
MOT day today!!
MOT passed, no advisories. Not bad for a 13 year old car.
Good news mate, least shes only dirty then, and not an old slacker!!!
Get on with the modding!!! lol
I am. I'm waiting on parts and I need to seek a custom trimmer.
My rear top mounts are now fitted and I can finaly enjoy the new suspension with No bumps, bangs, clinks or knocks for the first time in about 6 months.
The Koni STR.T suspension is really nice. It don't seem any harder than the sport stuff that was on there before and the drop from standard seems to be about 10mm which is just what I wanted.
My car is almost done for the external work and mechanical work couple of little bits needs sorting out through the winter and it should be done for the summer and next year shows.
Need to finish off my electric toys over the winter as well.
Random picture of Audrey how she looks now.
I said I'd comment so I will..
1. I think you need to tweak the settings on your camera mate, as the car looks burgundy..
2. Was the suspension new when you bought it, or 2nd hand mate?
All joking aside, car looks good and I'm jealous of your electric folding mirrors, doubt i'd ever use them, but they are pretty cool all the same.
Shut it boy!!
New. all bits was new.
Thank you.
The mirrors are easy, you and jay should get crack on and get them done mate.
I'm glad you said all the bits were new, as that means there should be a bit more of a drop to come, and I think Audrey would take that as easily as she takes your...well we won't go there.
How long before you fit those 21" Merc Wheels, or were they a secret?
I know mate, but I have a few more things I need to spend my dough on at the moment, like a cambelt and a service for my old clunker, then I need to look into some suspension mods as well.
YOu mean the 21" MonoBlocks that Chez keeps going on about?
Just get them seats in the new car. I can't wait to see that.
Keep up the good work Scott.
Audrey reminds me of when Carol Vorderman got all glamourous and went from this:
To this:
HAHA, nice comparison.
She should get better over the coming months if the pug is ever out of the garage.
Sell the pug (Jay knows someone who is interested) and get an A3. Two audi's, perfect.
Not going to happen mate.
The misses loves the pug to much and it looks like we are stuck with it for another year.
which is not a bad thing cause its a good fun car to rag around every now and then.
More fun then your car
Bit of a update.
I bought my self some rims.
I've never bought new alloys before as I'm never 100% sure on what to get and there is so many options out there I just 2nd guess my self all the way.
I found a couple that I like but was only able to find theses in the correct size and price I was happy with.
So its tough now, I'm stuck with them now unless I sell them when I get bored but for now, I'm happy and over the next couple of months I'll be getting tyres on them ready for the summer. I would do it now but then I'd fit them and run them over the winter which is what i don't want to do.
Here is some close up pics with out showing you what they are. you have to wait (I hope its worth it lol).
Now I need to buy some wheel wax and tyres.
Mine is a cruise not a racer.
Am I allowed to guess at what they are?
No, cause you know what they are. lol
They look like a replica of this:
Just cause they are not S4 rims!!
They look bab, are far too heavy and would look better if they were teddy bear wheels.
Looks interesting... At least if you do get bored you can sell them in Japan lmao (took me a few mins to figure out what the logo was, looking at it upside down, thought it said TTC not JIL )
After a little thread I posted up asking about the aerials and thanks to westy for some links, I bought one and fitted it. http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/general-automotive-chat/137775-shark-fins.html
This is the base of the old aerial. No idea what all that is for. Any one know?
This was not a plug and play job.
2 things, first I was unable to get the nut on to the new aerial cause there was 4 prong sticking out making it harder to get it on, so I bent theses back and I never liked the idea of the prongs making holes the roof.
second was the plugs. they the same, so only way to join them was to cut the ends off and solder. I never did this as I was unsure if I liked the aerial, this means i'm also unable to do a signal test.
Then its a simple screw, clamp it down and make sure the aerial is facing the correct way.
Here is some pics of it all back together.
What's the seal like between fin and roof?
Its raised, so soon as you start bolting it down it pushes the rubber in to the roof nice and tight.
There is a 2nd O-ring where the thread goes through the roof. So you should be fine.
More than what was originally there.
I'm bored so I thought i'd fit one of the rims to the car and see what I think.
Not much help really cause the car is jacked, there is no tyre and its only 1 rims.
O well.
As long as the water stays out that's all that matters.
I think it be fine mate.
I finally got round to fitting the Blanking plate to remove the EGR valve so I can fit the final engine cover.
What wheels you got mate ?
Wheres my PM??? Rimmage???
lol on its way.
Pm recieved!!!!
Interesting! :icon_thumright:
Will look cool mate, get em waxed every week now till fitting time!
The wheels have about 3 coats of PoorBoys on them and stored away ready for tyres.
I'm currently looking at Centre caps and tyre valves.
The centre caps are about 74mm and came with crappy 70mm stick on poo, so i'm looking for some 75mm solid ones or worse case 70mm stickies to go on the blank caps I got with the alloys.
I'm also considering flush valves but knew very little about them.
Any one got any experience with them?
