She loved Baby Hattie and even told her "Come on" to go to the playground.
Her bestie Emma came and even pushed her on the swing!
This is Jax with AR. The last time they played together, AR wasn't even one!
Her and her friends loved this slide!
Hugs for Addie!
We opened gifts. This girl was totally spoiled by all the gifts she got!
We had our family party first and I served these homemade cakes and Pac-Dots.
Making her first wish!
Matt and I made this Ms. Pacman bean bag toss game.
We had a second Costco cake for our friend party. Here she is making her second wish of her second birthday!
Sha, AR, and H...the birthday girl wasn't feeling it with smiling today.
Check it out, Matt and I both in our Pacman shirts and bright yellow tennis shoes to get into the theme.
There was a volleyball pit that surprisingly everyone played in...even the kiddos!
Her bestie decided to rest with her too.
Then she was up and ready to play in the sand with her cousins.
Driving home from the park, I saw a man walking down the sidewalk in a Pacman shirt!!! I totally honked at him and he was probably wondering, "What the heck?!" but it was an awesome sight to see on the way home after being surrounded by Pacman all day.
AR fell asleep on the way home and slept for about an hour. She woke up crying and crabby. I asked if she wanted to watch "Frozen" which is what her sitter got her for her birthday. She said yes so we spent the afternoon of her birthday cuddled up and watching her favorite movie. She was still pretty tired.
But once the movie got going, she hopped up and started dancing around the room!
Then she walked in the kitchen to get some milk and found her scooter again...which she rode around the entire house!
She wanted to go outside and ride again. We pulled out her helmet and rode it up and down our front sidewalk. She's loving it!
Then I snapped one more pic of me and the birthday girl before a yummy steak dinner and more birthday cake!

Bernie Sanders has won the Democratic presidential primary in Oregon after finishing neck-and-neck with front-runner Hillary Clinton in Kentucky.
The win for Sanders adds to his run of successes in the end stage of the Democratic primaries, but it won't do much to slow Clinton's march toward the nomination.
Even after Tuesday's results, Clinton remains on pace to wrap up the nomination in early June.
Among Sanders' supporters in Oregon was Mary Brewster, a 62-year-old Portland resident.
She says she cast her ballot for Sanders because, she says, "I think we need huge change."
She says that doesn't mean she thinks Sanders would be able to enact all his plans if elected. But she says she wanted to "vote for the things I believed in, and then vote for Hillary in the general election."

I love Leanne Ely and her wonderful website, SavingDinner.com. If you haven't heard me bless this woman a thousand times, here's 1001. Because I subscribe and download her LowCarb meal plans, I also get the pleasure of a newsletter. Today's was worth sharing, in part. This is only a partial. There was also a recipe, which I don't have permission to share.
Soup MakingBy Leanne Ely CNC
Spring might be springing but it's still quite cool outside. The daffodils are trying to convince us it's warming up and maybe it is on occasion, but we still have cold days, rain (and snow) and sadly the last days of soup making before the weather becomes too warm.
So let's make some soup! Understanding the basics of good soup will get your soup kicked up several notches and make you the undisputed queen (or king) of soup at your house!
Okay, let's break it down. First up, mire poix. Say that with me-- meer uh pwah. All that is, is onions, carrots and celery all chopped up; the basic beginning of any good soup. I like the onion to be the lead veggie and the celery and the carrot about the same amounts, so for a pot of soup (using a quart of broth), I'll use a large onion (about the size of a softball) and one rib of celery (about 8 inches long) and a carrot about the same size. Chop it up (no need to mince) and sauté it in the bottom of your soup pot before introducing the broth. You want the veggies to start to release their aromas, their colors to intensify and in the case of the onion, you want it to become translucent.
Now it's the broth's turn. I like homemade chicken broth like everyone else. I don't always have it, but I always have several quarts of low sodium chicken broth hanging around in my well-stocked pantry (have I told you lately that a well-stocked pantry is a girl's best friend?). My current favorite broth is Wolfgang Pucks Low Sodium Roasted Chicken Broth. It's the bomb and lends a wonderful, homemade flavor to your soups.
I'm not as fond of onions as Leanne, and I make no bones about changing my mire poix to suit my family's needs and tastes. For me, the vegetables are all equal in volume. That's the right of any cook, IMHO. For those who read my blog, FatFrogDiary when I posted the "How to Make Homemade Broths and Cream of Veggie Soups," you already have the skills you need.
For those who don't know, go take a look at how many carbs and calories are in the condensed soups available in cans. I'll put on my earmuffs so when you scream, you won't deafen me.
Happy Eating!
Opinions are like anuses. We all have them, and they all stink. This is where I give my odiferous opinions. You're welcome to comment, but if I don't like your opinion or you're not on topic, you're gone.

Do-gooders issued citations for offering food to homeless
A dozen do-gooders in California have been issued citations — for providing meals to homeless other people in a public park.
The dozen volunteers mentioned Sunday had been a part of a bigger group in El Cajon, protesting a city ban on sharing food in public spaces, the San Diego Union Tribune mentioned.
"If I'm going to be arrested for one thing, permit or not it's for feeding the homeless," Matthew Schneck advised NBC San Diego. "I'm not going to make an apology for doing the correct thing."
Schneck was one among approximately 50 people who attended Sunday's adventure in Wells Park. Everybody — including a 14-yr-old boy — handing out meals to the needy was passed a misdemeanor quotation.
El Cajon City Council members handed the food-sharing ban in October, pronouncing it will assist give protection to other folks from hepatitis A, which had unfold amongst local vagrants.
An legal professional representing the twelve people stated mentioned the ordinance is a again-handed try at getting rid of the town's homeless other people and a primary-modification infringement.
"It was once actually a cover," mentioned legal professional Scott Dreher. "Folks were complaining homeless other folks will come to the park in the event you supply them free stuff."
"It's discriminatory against a vulnerable class of people. Undeniable and easy," he delivered. "And on best of that, it abridges the first Amendment rights of the people who want to feed them."
However councilmembers said if other people really want to assist the homeless, they need to volunteer at food banks and shelters.
"They don't must feed them within the park the place it might lead to a problem according to the health authorities," stated councilman Bob McClellan. "if they want to lend a hand the homeless, have a look at the list of places. All they must do is learn the listing."
The dozen volunteers may just face a $1,000 wonderful and prison time.

Today we took a day off from our regularly scheduled school work to do some fun school. Monday's are typically our co-op days, but with all the snow outside, co-op was cancelled and we were given a whole day to fill up with enrichment activities.
CurrClick has a great lapbook all about Valentines Day that we are working on for this week. And at only $4.00 for the download, it's a great value!! The lapbook is geared towards 2nd through 6th grade; but with some minor adjustments, I'm making it work for our preschooler and kindergartner as well as for 2nd grade Marco.
It's hard to think ahead sometimes and plan fun things to do, especially when you are busy packing for a possible move! But I'm trying really hard to keep things fun around here! Luckily, there are plenty of websites to visit and get holiday crafts and things to do.
For our lapbook we studied the history of Valentine's Day, as well as how it was celebrated during the Middle Ages. Anthony wasn't able to follow along with the more in-depth questions I made the older children answer, but he was still involved with some preschool valentine activities. Enchanted Learning has some great valentine activity books you can print out. We used this activity book from them and glued it to the inside of his lapbook. He also practiced writing letters and did some coloring.
Here are some additional websites that I love and can always find things for not only my preschooler, but for Marco and Isabella as well. Some of them do require a subscription, but I find that they are well worth it!

Doesn't stop the run on the sports schedules though. As I sit preparing this post on the weekend before publication, there is very little productive going on - so at least these words can be put together so that I don't feel entirely decadent!
Firstly there is the cricket - test matches are up and running again here in the UK - England v South Africa; there are various ODIs in which I have some interest too. That is not on our free-to-air channels here, though there is a 'highlights' show at night... but I really enjoy the radio commentary on the BBC, which is always highly 'visual' and entertaining between balls.
Then there is Wimbledon. I would say I have a bit of a chequered history with tennis; it went through a spell of being dead boring, automotive sort of stuff. Since returning to the UK, though, have started to get back into it and I must say that this year there has been some truly wonderful play, with a number of young players showing great promise. So I am hooked on this year's competition... but as can only run one channel at a time on the telly, am flicking back and forth to that link to keep tabs on all the matches.
Thirdly, there is the Tour de France; am a cycling fan of long years.
...and tomorrow, the Para World Championships begin!!!
Struth - the most exercise the YAMster is getting is the keyboard workout... and the occasional trip to the kitchen.
Are there any others out there as nuts as this for their sport??? It's okay, there's a cone of silence over the Hutch, it will be between ourselves... let's form a huddle...

|Essays on real options and strategic investment
|Hsu, Y.

|Date of Award:
|Availability of Full Text:
This dissertation comprises three essays on strategic real options. We use contingent claims analysis (CCA) to study how the timing of an investment under uncertainty is affected by strategic behaviour. 'Preemptive Patenting under Uncertainty and Asymmetric Information' examines an option game in which a potential entrant competes with the incumbent to introduce a new product. We assume each agent wants to preempt the rival whenever it is advantageous to do so. Information asymmetry exists between the firms in the sense that the incumbent knows only the probability distribution of the challenger's cost, while the incumbent's cost is publicly known. Therefore, by waiting, the incumbent retains the flexibility to respond to new information, but the fear of preemption may drive him to invest earlier. We analyse how the incumbent determines its strategic investment trigger based on this trade-off. 'Duopolistic Investment Decisions under Uncertainty' combines the option values of different firms' investment opportunities to find the equilibrium investment behaviour. We first analyse a monopolist's investment decision, assuming that the firm must incur some cost to keep its investment opportunity alive. The claim value of the investment opportunity is found by solving a two-free-boundaries problem numerically. The solution also includes an inaction region in which the monopolist keeps waiting until investment or abandonment is triggered. We then generalise the CCA in a duopolistic context. The claim values of both firms' investment opportunities are solved simultaneously, and the strategic inaction region, showing who will invest or abandon first, is also analysed. 'Staging of Venture Capital Investment: A Real Options Analysis' combines CCA with principal-agent analysis to investigate the staging decision of the venture capitalist. We assume that the venture capitalist can finance a venture's operation by staged or lump-sum investment. The staged and lump-sum financing opportunities are modelled as compound and simple options respectively.

One of the main reasons of traveling to Newfoundland and Labrador is to see the wildlife. As I stated earlier because of selecting a bad season we were not able to see much of the main animals that normally are expected to be seen in that province. The following is the list of what is considered to be attractive in NL:
1- Moose.
2- Caribou.
3- Different types of Whales.
4- Dolphins.
5- Puffin.
6- Seal.
7- Different types of wading birds.
8- Other birds.
8- Other birds.
The list could go on but they are the major ones. Beside I don't know the name of many other different birds. We basically only saw a few types of birds including one from number 7 family, above. No sign of any other ones! However we managed to see a Black Bear and a Fox! It was unbelievable because everywhere we went people warned us of Moose on the road and the signs were everywhere but the only ones we saw where the killed ones! As I said before I was told in one of the tourist information centers that the hunting season had just been started a week before our arrival.
I'm hoping that our luck is better the next time we are going and I will make sure that the next trip is made fully equipped: A good camera with a telephoto lens and a pair of binoculars.
(Photo: Signs similar to this and other shapes and forms were seen in different parts of the province but not even one was seen. Parts of Highway No. 1 or as it's know in NL, Route 1, is fenced, just like Banff National Park and area. Other parts of equipped with detection poles that when a Moose is crossing makes warning lights blinking/flashing. It is said that the fatal accidents with Moose is significant regardless of all the cares taken. This picture was taken in Gros Morne National Park while leaving Trout River area. This was one of the numerous places that we had been promised to see Moose!)

Sick Tap
Spotted this tap the other day, it appears to be a little sick ad has a nice bandage with a bright blue band aid which I think is nice. You dont often see alot of outside taps on houses in Oxford, which I think is a must really. How do you water the garden with no tap outside?

Most Chicago architects had very busy offices in the years leading up to the World's Columbian Exposition. Silsbee's was no exception. In addition to being preoccupied with promoting his novel invention, the "moving sidewalk" he was at work on designs for state buildings as well. One of his lesser known, yet possibly his most popular fair exhibit building was a large arena for animal trainer and zoo pioneer Carl Hagenbeck.
Hagenbeck traveled the world to collect animal, archeological and human specimens to be showcased for public display. He became popular for his circuses that traveled the world with trained animals. The World's Columbian Exposition was a perfect place to showcase and market the items and animals that he uncovered in his travels. The arena built for Hagenbeck for his animal and archeological showcase was at the east end of the Midway Plaisance. The show featured animals of every type including performing bears, lions, elephants, parrots and monkeys as well as an array of other exhibited animals. Also on exhibit was an "Ethnological Museum" featuring sculpture, masks, and hunting implements from around of the world.
The arena was 200 feet square and was designed to accommodate 5,000 spectators at a time. In addition to the large arena, the structure featured indoor beer gardens and cafes featuring German wines and food. It was two stories tall and was constructed of iron. Like most of the fair buildings it was covered in staff, which gave it its gleaming white appearance. The building was a Classical Revival structure that featured a symmetrical facade when viewed from the center of the Midway. A central pediment supported by paired columns marked the entry. Below the pediment, was an open cage that had a constant open exhibit of live lions. The facade of the arena was was two-stories tall with broad corner turrets capped with large domes. Like most of the other exposition structures, the Zoological Arena was intended to be temporary and was demolished after the fair.

Careers program turns into re-enlistment for 100 Marines on Okinawa
Careers program turns into re-enlistment for 100 Marines on Okinawa
The Manpower Management Division Enlisted Road Show came to Okinawa to help Marines make career decisions, and for 100 of them, the choice was to re-enlist.
"The first-term Marines coming to the end of their first contract re-up defines the biggest effort in retention. We only retain 23-25 percent of those Marines," Col. Rudy M. Janiczek said. "It is Important to identify the good ones, and that is where the leaders come in."
The MMEA road show travels worldwide to give Marines the opportunity to take their careers into their own hands and speak to their monitors face-to-face, with 25 career monitors and two career counselors on hand.
It's also an opportunity for the Marine Corps to retain its young. Lt. Gen. Lawrence D. Nicholson, the III MEF commander, said keeping the best is critical amid the drawdown.
"We are looking for the Marine that has 100 options, the Marine that can go do 10 different things," he said. "The future staff NCOs and officers of our corps, those are the Marines that we are really focused on. Our corps is shrinking, and we have the opportunity to be more selective and to pick only the best and most capable and most talented individuals to be our future staff NCOs and officers."
Janiczek called the weeklong event that ended Friday a campaign for re-enlistment.
"Really where you make ground is sitting kneecap to kneecap with that particular Marine, talking about what he or she wants and aspires to do and really making sure the good Marines are identified and retained," Janiczek said.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — New York Sen.-elect Hillary Rodham Clinton agreed Friday to accept an $8 million book deal with publisher Simon & Schuster for a memoir on her eight tumultuous years in the White House, sources said.
The advance is the highest ever paid to a member of Congress and comes close to matching the $8.5 million that Pope John Paul II received in 1994, a non-fiction record. The first lady's advance beats the $7.1 million received this summer by General Electric Chairman Jack Welch.

Even though the price of our favorite CoQ10, Metagenics CoQ10ST-100 60 and 120 softgels, has been drastically reduced by $15 and $30 a bottle, respectively, it is still not cheap. So why do other brands sell for less? Like us, not all CoQ10's are created equal.
CoQ10 is one of the most important, broad-based supplemental nutrients for the prevention of myriad health conditions. For this reason, there are numerous factors to consider when considering a CoQ10 supplement. Unfortunately, much of the valuable information is unavailable to the consumer when he/she makes their purchasing decision. One thing we can tell you for sure: with CoQ10 especially, you get what you pay for. The levels of quality vary tremendously.
Crystals are formed when CoQ10 is produced commercially and require harmful solvents to dissolve them under intense heat. Unfortunately, CoQ10 will recrystallize upon cooling, creating even larger crystals, which can affect solubility. Manufacturers of the highest quality CoQ10 avert mass crystallization, but it comes at a very high price, some of which is passed onto the consumer. In addition, manufacturers of the highest quality CoQ10 will not use synthetic solvents, but organic solvents such as D-limonene.
CoQ10 oxidizes almost instantaneously when exposed to air. Hence, we always recommend supplemental CoQ10 products that are delivered in softgel form to assure a smooth, oxidized-free delivery to the gut's absorption sites.
CoQ10 is highly lipophilic and practically insoluble in water, which affects bioavailability. Because it is strongly dependent on fat for absorption, high quality CoQ10 manufacturers have discovered ways to create successful preparations of lipid vehicles, such as vegetable oil and vitamin E to improve absorption. Supplement CoQ10 should always be accompanied by a fat and antioxidant to ensure that it is fully to absorbed.
What we have always been most concerned about is making sure a supplement is safe, meets label claim, and is formulated to deliver optimal absorption. The CoQ10 products we recommend are usually more expensive than many on the market, but for the reasons discussed, we know you are getting what you pay for. We cannot say the same for many other CoQ10 products out there.

National & World Ag News Headlines
Busy Congressional Schedule Next Week
USAgNet - 04/21/2017
Congress is wrapping up a two-week recess and will be back in session next week with a busy schedule on tap. According to the National Association of Wheat Growers, the Senate is expected to kick it off on Monday with a confirmation vote on Governor Sonny Perdue to be the Secretary of Agriculture. This long-awaited vote is welcome news to wheat farmers across the country who have been waiting months for a top leader to be installed at the department.
Congress also must act on an FY 2017 funding bill before the end of the week in order to avoid a government shutdown. The federal government is currently operating under a continuing resolution which lasts through April 28, 2017. Possible options could be passage of another short-term CR in order to allow for more time for negotiations on a longer-term spending bill, passage of a CR that lasts through the remainder of FY 2017, or passage of a new omnibus appropriations bill.
NAWG says the shuttering of USDA service centers would delay producers' ability to access FSA credit programs, their ability to enroll in FSA's title 1 programs, and delay sign-up for and delivery of USDA conservation programs. Producers rely on their USDA offices for a number of different services, and a government shutdown would have a ripple effect throughout rural America. Aside from FY 2017 appropriations, efforts are also underway for drafting FY 2018 appropriations bills. As part of the appropriations process, President Trump has previously released a budget proposal that is focused on discretionary spending. In that proposal is included a 21 percent reduction to USDA's discretionary budget. President Trump is also expected to release in the coming weeks a more detailed budget proposal that could include changes to mandatory program spending.

A dividend is a payment made by a company or corporation to its shareholders.
When you buy stocks, it basically means that you "buy" a small slice of the company, including it's profits which is paid in dividends.
Most of the time, these dividend payouts are made in cash (cash dividends) but sometimes, companies may also distribute dividends in stock, where they "pay" shareholders additional stocks.
Depending on the dividend stock companies, they may pay either:
I've heard of some companies paying monthly (ie 12 times per year) but I hadn't chanced across such dividend stock companies in Singapore.
Every company has their own dividend policy and schedules, and sometimes there are special (one-time) dividends declared, which are bonus on top of the usual dividends, and not factored into the stock's dividend yield.
Thing is, not every company pays dividends, and companies can change their dividend policies at time - which is why when you choose to invest in a dividend company for their dividends, you must have a list of criteria (more on that later).
It's a business operations financing function.
In essence, companies sell stock shares to the open public to raise funds, which is used to fund existing sales/marketing operations and to expand their businesses. When the business is profitable, the company in turn, reward shareholders for helping them fund their operations and owning stock in the company.
That is why dividends is one of the key ways for companies to attract investors to buy (and keep) their stock.
Let's make some basic assumptions:
20 years later, at age 45, you decide to look at your portfolio and your returns, this is what you will see:
Basically at 45 years old, you will have a lump sum of $419,284.32. If at 45 years old, with this sum, you decide to stop working and live off the dividends:
At 5% return per annum, you will get $20,964.216 (roughly $1,747 per month)
Note that this is very conservative, because:
Just by adding $8000 per year (assuming bonus + increments), after 20 years, the end value:
The numbers jumped from $419,284.32 to $697,038.33 (66.24% growth).
5% as dividends will be $34,851.91, which is roughly $2,904 per month.
What does that mean to you, to receive $1,747 - $2,904 per month at 45 years old? This is money that doesn't require any additional work, that comes in like clockwork.
Does this additional money mean:
From the early days of stock markets to today, dividends WERE the main method of paying back value to shareholders, and price appreciation (capital gains/growth) were considered more as bonus, as people bought stocks mainly for the dividends.
This "became outdated" as investors started to move towards "growth stocks" because of the computer/tech boom that showed companies like Microsoft, Facebook, Google, Apple etc - where stocks can increase in value 2x - 100x and more, and people loved the quick growth.
(At this point in writing in 2017, there's where cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin, Ethereum and AltCoins is - the digital currency boom time).
However, gradually, a group of investors, who prefer reliable and consistent dividends for cashflow (people like myself) are anchoring ourselves and outpaced growth/performance/non-dividend stocks.
If you buy a dividend-paying stock and have met the payout requirements (as determined by dividend dates), you will receive the dividends.
These dividend payouts are paid on a per-share basis.
Let me explain - if I purchase ONE share of ABC stock, which pays say $1 per quarter, that'd mean I will receive $1 x 4 quarters in a year = $4 in a full financial year. Most of the time, dividends are wired/deposited directly into a shareholder's brokerage account.
In Singapore, all dividends are paid DIRECTLY to one's bank account - I love this because I keep "finding" more money in my account. It's like magic, and it's so delightful to me.
In some cases and dividend-paying companies, if an investor buys directly from the company itself (through a special direct investment plan like DRIP - dividend reinvestment plan), then the dividends can be automatically be reinvested to buy more shares.
However, I do not like "locked-in" dividend reinvesting plans, because I like the flexibility of cash, as well as the flexibility of choosing which dividend stocks I want to buy more of.
A stock's dividend yield specifically refers to the projected/expected return of a stock, in dividends, over the course of a full financial/calendar year.
Yield is always presented based on a percentage of the stock's current price.
An example, back to company ABC, say it's trading at $100 per share, and it paid $1 per quarter x 4 quarters = $4 for the year. You can then see that ABC's dividend yield is $4/$100 = 4%.
As a stock's price goes up and down, so will the dividends go down and up. Dividend yield is inversely related to share price. The reason for this is 2 things:
Let me illustrate:
#1 - "Boom" market
I want to buy ABC company that is trading at $100 with usually paying $4 per share per year in dividends. During a boom, the price may spike, and instead of the regular price of $100 per ABC share, it became $120.
If I had bought one ABC share at $120, and they pay out their usual dividend of $1 per quarter x 4 quarters, then FOR ME, my investment of ABC stock has a return of $4/$120 = 3.333%
#2 - "Down" market
Using the example of ABC company, that usually trades at $100 per share and payout $4 per share per year as dividends. During a scare, or scandal, or fear, the share price may drop, and if I manage to buy it say at $80 per ABC share.
Then my dividend yield is $4/$80 = 5%
It's not magic - it's basically termed as "entry point".
As a rule of thumb, if the company is really good and pays very good dividends, and you have been studying it for some time (or better still, are an investor of it), and you know some fear-mongering news happened which dropped the price of that company - then it's time to enter the market and buy more. Only if you have the budget and are prepared for it.
"Be greedy when others are fearful, and be fearful when others are greedy" - Warren Buffett.
Dividend investing is one of the most popular for conservative, traditional, buy and hold investors.
Usually what dividend investing activities are really is:
Companies that have been paying dividends on a growing and consistent basis for 5, 10, 20 years and more tends to be longer term mindset, listening to shareholders feedback and preparing themselves for change and future proofing themselves - basically their strongest feature is their resilience, reliance and long term returns.

Re: Land Rover Freelander2 2011 New Look Launched
The UK and Indian market are entirely different. In UK compact size and actual offroad ability might be important but for most SUV buyers in our country- Big Size= Road Presence= Prestige value, some others buy them them for ruggedness and ground clearance, while only a very small percentage of buyers really utilise the actual capabilities of such SUVs.

Re: Land Rover Freelander2 2011 New Look Launched
hi guys
Has any one bought the new one ? I am keen to pick one but have doubts on the service front - can any one share experiences with local dealers in Delhi or Ludhiana . How good is the 4 x 4 performance considering it not does not have a proper Low range - any experiences with Terrain response of LR - does these settings actually make difference ?

Re: Land Rover Freelander2 2011 New Look Launched
The Terrain Response System on the Freelander 2 is very effective. To get a feel of it you can visit the JLR showroom in Gurgaon & take a test drive.
I did an extensive test drive & it went over anything that was thrown at it, though I did not drive it in mud pits, everything else it handles with aplomb. The on road behaviour of the vehicle is also exemplary.

Re: Land Rover Freelander2 2011 New Look Launched
For those that doubt the off roading capability of the LR Freelander - may like to view 3 videos that I have posted of my Freelander 2.
The thread is titled :Land Rover Freelander 2 - the first on the forum
The vehicle is very capable on & off road. The acceleration is more than enough to put any or most vehicles to disappear in the rear view.
The service & repair costs are at par with Q5 - the dealer is good & capable of delivering service.
I agree that the interiors are a tad "plain jane" for a car costing as much as this does, but personally I have no issues with that, I think they are way more in character of the vehicle than the softy, goody goody ones that most cars come with nowadays.
The on road behaviour is brilliant & I have driven the Q7 3.0 / 4.2, Q5 3.0 / 2.0 & the Q3 2.0 so I would know what I am talking about.
Any of the LR's or Rangies are not going to please those that seek the Q's or the ML's kind of tag value. In India the obsession is driven by what is percieved as a rich man's car & not by merit. That is my POV is simple plain english.

As it was in 2005, I see , as I drive down the big highway from Centerville Utah to just near Kaysville Utah more houses, more asphalt and less farm ground.
Out against the great Salt Lake one sees not lush farm ground or a farmer tilling the soil, but another Wal-Mart or Smith Food Center being built. Oh they soon will need those food stores since Utahn's like other areas will have to import their food.
I caught this commentary last weekend on This Week In Agribusiness on RFDTV, about the lack of qualified or even willing teachers willing to teach agriculture to young students.
Today as I was chatting with my second seat here at the studio, the lack of FFA, 4-H and other similar classes were being offered. Did America or at least Utah give up on production farming? Or even farming to begin with? Few realize or remember that the organization that created HazzardAyre Radio started as a 4-H Truck Transportation Club. That's right a 4-H Club. Simply called the TeenAge Truckers Association.
Teaching youth driving farm trucks and equipment how to do just that drive properly the rigs moving agriculture. As for me after I got along going towing, during summer months, few tows, but lots of farm ground to be fertilized, and enhanced through nutrients, so Dad being the business guy he was, brought myself and cousin Gordon, in and created Eagle Starr Flying Service. With two helicopters two air tractors. Over the years Eagle Star Flying Service became AyreWolf Aviation in 2006, be that as it may, farming and agriculture has always been a foundation for my life and I know how important it is to everyone, since everyone needs to do this one thing every day or you die, its called EAT. And its sad to see the land giving way to homes, interstates, roads, and shopping centers.
I want to see more farms, more kids out working the land. The complaint by many is the rush over the borders of Mexican workers. True it has became a problem, but dig this, how many kids or even Anglo men are out in those fields in a hot sun, hoeing sugar beets, or even driving a potato truck? How many teens, not of a farm family are in a barn helping to milk cows? How many are out on a July day moving hand lines Sprinkler pipes? Get the kids, teens , etc out from in front of a computer screen, away from that cell phone and away from the cable TV and put em in the fields. That's how you reduce the need of farmers having to bring in Mexican farm labor.
There's a thrill, of satisfaction of coming in from a long day in the fields working on a farm, bringing in a crop of hay, sitting down to a REAL home made meal, with cold buttermilk, mashed taters, thick gravy and a side of pork, then going in reading the Bible and getting a nights sleep. Taking a line from the Jim Carrey movie , Bruce Almighty, when God was telling Bruce, " Some of the happiest people in the world come in at night smelling like high Heaven" I believe that.
Get our youth back on the farm, lets educate our youth in agriculture, lets encourage new teachers, to specialize in agricultural education.
Beth Ann from CSC Talk Radio , now on at 08:00 AM Monday through Friday, on HazzardAyre, asked this evening, if you could ask a few questions to President Obama, and Romney in this election season, what would they be?
I'd ask, Mr. President, what are you doing to encourage farm agricultural education in our schools?
Of course both Ray, of Dixie Broadcasting and I agree on this, and I wish Beth Ann would expand on this, but few know that there is a third political party out there, carrying the God fearing attitudes and messages of the old South, that ought to be applied now, that political party is called , " The Confederate National Part" and is valid in all 50 states. Yet you hear little buzz on the mainstream media beit TV or Radio, except on HazzardAyre or Dixie Broadcasting.

I know this, not because I am OCD, but because since starting my job I haven't had the where-with-all to juggle all my plates adequately, much less be reflective and have time to compose. (I still haven't even sent my dad's birthday card - since Jan. 19 - because I want to write something sweet and meaningful on it, plus have all the kids sign it...and my brain hasn't synched enough to have all that happen!) This week was my 45-day review with my bosses, so I've passed a marker of sorts. Time to come up for air!
If I were to describe the past 45 days, I'd probably use numbers. I'd say a good 20 days have been filled with tremendous satisfaction....the team I work for is the best - godly, funny, patient, creative and kind. My portion of the work is meaningful and challenging. I leave the office feeling like I've made a positive change - the little world of Student Ministries has been improved a bit by me being there - and my home life has functioned smoothly at the same time. The kids seem to be adjusted to my absence, people are functioning and fed, the house is "clean enough" to host our weekly teen group and our monthly adult group...there is milk in the fridge, coffee in the pot, and a candle flickering on the mantle. Laughter and dinner happen at 6pm.
Perhaps 10 of the days, though, have been frustrating... from feeling frustrated that I'm not performing either of my jobs well. The 45 days have included sick kids, injured son (trip to ER, surgery, recovery), stressed hubby, stressed daughters...and it is frustrating to not be able to totally hone in on those situations and excel at being a comforter, a helpmeet, and a source of peace and joy. In the office meanwhile, are challenges like camps, new systems, deadlines, increasing responsibility, student drama....and because of my home life I have not been able to hone in on those situations and be the completer, the helpmeet, and a source of peace and joy. So ten of the forty-five have been discouraging because I think I'm not doing anything well.
So 20 good, 10 poor, and the remaining 15 have been neutral. The days where you grab milk on the way home....eating leftovers for dinner....asking others to step it up to cover your inadequacies ("Jon, can you pick Ben up from basketball?" "Abby, can you get Katie from rehearsal?" "WHO WILL DO THE LITTERBOX?"). But, there are still smiles and piled children on my bed at night....time together and a feeling like "today was okay." We managed. We got through it. God is in control. God loves us and takes care of us.
When I write up the sum of my days, I see how blessed I am to number such a miserly few to being bad, and how many good and neutral days I really have. And the fact that even my "neutral" is, for the most part, actually GREAT by much of the world's standard! And no matter if my days qualify as "bad" or "good," God is still in control - He loves and takes care of us no matter how we are "feeling" about the day.
20 + 10 + 15 = 45 days to lean on Him, to look to Him for my satisfaction, my peace, my joy, my contentment and my value.
Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

I think this one is so right on the mark that it deserves second and third thoughts
I am compelled by the comedy work of the late & great George Carlin. Still, of all his work I think this one clip is perhaps his most meaningful comedy and doesn't just compel a laugh. It isn't just great performance & funny, and witty delivery.

An organisation's success depends on how well their employees are able to co-operate across projects and everyday tasks. Team building activities help in achieving a better workplace with more close-knit relationships that then have a positive impact on company processes and goals.
CFO of Scholastic, Maureen O'Connell suggests that team building programs should be undertaken by every organisation in order to have a well built team and that the strategies should be included in the standard training curriculum.
Team-building activities provide an upbeat and powerful team experience allowing companies to compete effectively by enabling staff at all levels to work as team players. Studies found out that 87% percent of employees who were highly engaged in team activities were less likely to leave their companies as compared their disengaged counterparts. Here are a few more benefits of team building activities:–
- It improves employee's morale and leadership skills and motivated them to work for the organisation
- It finds all the barriers that thwart one's creativity & helps in overcoming those roadblocks
- It defines objectives and goals of the organisation and helps one realise what they are working towards
- It improves organisational productivity by making employees happier, motivated & more satisfied as workers
- It identifies a team's strengths and weaknesses and in turn benefits employees
- It improves problem solving skills and increases employees' interaction with each other
- It helps an organisation achieve its long term goals. When employees work together with each other, they are able to take up more challenges & are able to respond quicker.
All in all, while hiring the right candidates is certainly important, it is evident that only choosing right people is not enough for company's success. Team building activities not only help your employees work well together, but they also reduce workplace friction, prevent good people from leaving your company, help your company solve problems more easily and even leads to the creation of new goods and/or services that will propel your company forward into the future.
