Tips For Purchasing Car Insurance
Among the expenses associated with owning a vehicle is car insurance. The specifics will vary depending on where you live, among other factors. By spending a bit of time researching your purchase, you can get a great price and coverage.
The amount of money you have to pay for your insurance will rise if you have any accidents or tickets on your record. This is one of the reasons that you want to avoid speeding and other driving infractions. In addition to the fines you will have to pay the courts, your rates will stay high as a result.
However, if you have some tickets on your record, do not despair. You can shop around to find an affordable policy that works with you. If you keep your record clean, you will eventually experience a drop in rates.
Likewise, teens and those in their early twenties will pay more money than a person in their thirties. The type of vehicle you have is another factor that will influence the amount of money an insurance policy will cost you.
For instance, if you are looking at a great little sports car, you will pay out more cash than if you have your eye on a family sedan. The make and model of the vehicle as well as the year it was produced are relevant as well. A luxury car is more expensive to insure because it is more expensive to repair and replace.
If you have more than one vehicle, you may end up paying less per car than you would if you only owned one. The specifics will vary. However, it is worth it to look into. If you are only going to use one driving back and forth to work, it might help.
If you are making payments on a vehicle, the lender will likely have demands regarding your car insurance until you have paid the loan. This will include sufficient coverage to pay them back should the car become totaled.
Not only will the lender have demands, but the state that you live in will as well. All states have a minimum requirement for insurance coverage that everyone must maintain. Your insurance company will make sure that the minimum is a part of your policy.
However, you may want to have greater coverage than what these entities require. This will give you more support in the event that an accident occurs. While a basic policy will provide for some medical and property coverage, you may end up with outrageous bills if the incident was severe. A better policy can help you to avoid this should the worst happen.
You should compare the rates from at least three or four companies before selecting one. Make sure that you understand the differences in the policies. In addition, you might be able to get reduced rates in a number of different ways.
If you have another form of insurance, such as home or life, you might be able to add your car insurance coverage to the policy and save money that way. There are some highly reputable insurance companies that have been around for decades that do this. It is a great way to consolidate your payments.
However, you want to be sure that you are working with a company with excellent customer service. Read reviews and talk to people to find out which companies are known for treating customers well and which have tangled phone lines with computerized answers to queries.
Affiliations with certain groups might also get you a reduction in charges. For instance, AARP members often can get discounted services from a variety of businesses, including insurance providers. It is worth it to look into the discounts you might be able to receive.
Even if you are not a member of a qualifying group, you might be able to find a coupon through an online search. These are usually only good for new customers of a business.
Car insurance is an important part of owning a vehicle. Make certain that you explore your options and choose wisely so that you will have a policy that meets your needs no matter what may arise in the future.
Things To Consider When Shopping For Auto Insurance
If you have a vehicle in the United States, you will have to have auto insurance or face legal troubles. You have many choices though when it comes to your coverage and you should look into them carefully prior to making a decision.
Each state has specific rules regarding the type of auto insurance that the residents must have. As a general rule, you will need basic coverage that provides some medical coverage for you and others. The amounts exactly for the coverage are what is determined by the state where you live.
In addition, you will likely want to have coverage for the vehicle itself and possibly extend the coverage for injured parties. While these will drive your rates up, it will also help to ensure that you are not in deep financial trouble if an accident occurs.
There are other things that will also drive up your rates for your car insurance. Understanding these factors can help you make decisions related to your car. For instance, drivers under the age of 25 will pay a higher premium than an older driver with all other circumstances being equal.
Auto accidents and tickets will cause your insurance rates to go up. The more troubles you have encountered, the more you will have to pay for insurance. Fortunately, these strikes on your driving record are rarely permanent in regards to your insurance payments.
After a certain number of years, accidents and tickets fall from the calculation. This means that after a while of being accident free that none of the issues will factor into your payments for car insurance any more. Of course, if you get a new ticket or into a crash of some sort, that will show up as a new mark against you.
The type of car that you are driving will also make a difference in the prices you will be charged for your insurance. Sports cars are always going to cost more to insure than family vehicles. The more expensive and fast the vehicle, the higher and faster your rates will climb.
The make and manufacturer of the vehicle is involved in the calculation of your premiums. In addition to conditions such as sports cars being more likely to be involved in a wreck, there are specific financial considerations the company uses. For instance, if you have coverage to pay replacement cost of the vehicle, it will cost them more if you own a luxury brand car or the top of the line for a manufacturer vs. the lower end.
You might be able to save money on your auto insurance by combining it with other policies you have. For instance, if you already have a life insurance policy, contact the provider and ask if the business also works with auto coverage. See if you can receive a discount.
You might also be able to qualify for a discount on your automobile insurance coverage due to an affiliation. Are you a member of a well-known club or group? Certain ones, such as AARP, are granted a percentage off of services with various insurance companies.
Another way to obtain a reduced cost in regards to your coverage is to take a driving course. Depending on where you live, your age and other factors, you can learn defensive driving techniques through a trained professional. Certain courses will include a certificate that many insurance companies will take as proof that you have obtained more extensive driving training and are less of a risk as a result. This will drop your premiums.
When you are ready to buy your insurance, make sure that you have all of the related paperwork handy. This will make it easier for you to fill out the online forms. However, you can use some preliminary information to get quotes first. Compare the rates and reputations of at least three or four different companies prior to making your choice.
Obtain the proper coverage you need in order to adhere to the law and protect yourself financially. Weigh the factors involved and your options before deciding which of the auto insurance providers you contacted will be able to meet your needs.
A Guide to Choosing the Right Homeowners Insurance for You
Buying a home is one of the most serious investments you're going to make in your lifetime. This is why it's imperative to protect it. Homeowners insurance gives you some peace of mind that if disaster eventually strikes, your investment isn't going to be lost.
Many companies offer such insurance products and it may be difficult to pick the right one. A number of important factors will have to be examined prior to making the big decision.
How Much Insurance do You Need?
Before doing anything else, you'll have to figure out just how much homeowners insurance you need. Making up your mind will give you the right type of coverage and protect you from spending an excessively large sum of money on the policy.
Some people try to make the calculation on the basis of how much they paid for the property. This type of calculation, however, may be faulty.
A house on a large property doesn't cost as much as the amount you spent on the purchase. A big garden, the availability of a swimming pool and other amenities increase the cost of the house. The garden, however, isn't going to be covered by the insurance company.
Understand the Different Types of Coverage
Generally, home insurance policies provide a specific degree of coverage. Some of the most prominent possibilities include the following:
– HO-2: this is one of the broadest options. It provides coverage in the case of the 16 most common perils and disasters. A few of these include theft, vandalism, windstorms, explosions and riots, freezing of systems, vehicle damage, water overflow and falling objects.
– HO-3: this policy is sometimes called an open peril insurance, which means that they cover for all additional risks except for ones explicitly excluded by the insurance company. Read the fine print to figure out what these exceptions are.
– HO-5: a premium type of policy that's most suitable for new and expensive buildings. Once again, it covers for all possible perils.
There are a few specialized options, as well. These include HO-6, 7 and 8 policies. Such homeowners insurances are suited to the needs of condominium, mobile home and older home owners.
The Cost of the Insurance
The next step would be to take a look at the premiums and figure out how much the insurance is going to cost you.
The newest available statistics when it comes to the average homeowners insurance premium in the US are from 2013. According to HomeInsurance.com's annual report, the sum is 823 dollars (a decrease from 900 dollars on an annual basis).
There are regional variations to take into consideration. The states with the highest annual insurance premiums are Florida with 1,991 dollars, Louisiana with 1,722 dollars, Texas with 1,625 dollars and Mississippi with 1,451 dollars.
Several other factors will impact the premium, as well. The amount of coverage that you want to buy, the crime rates in the area where the property is located, the size of the house, the condition of the various house systems and even your credit score will be determining for the premium you're going to get.
Explore Multiple Possibilities
Premiums, coverage and the specific conditions of getting a home insurance will vary greatly from one company to another. This is the main reason why you need to get at least a few quotes prior to finalizing the decision.
Shopping around is always important and it becomes even more crucial when a major investment is at stake. The best insurance agency is legitimate, it's been on the market for many years and it has managed to maintain its reputation over this period of time.
Check the financial strength of the agency – the websites of companies like Standard & Poor's or Moody's will give you access to such information. Know what's covered and keep an eye for hidden costs.
One of the smartest things to do is create a spreadsheet with individual entries for every single insurance agency that has provided a quote. Examining the same information side by side can reveal major discrepancies that weren't obvious the first time around.
Take your time, talk to multiple insurance agents and make sure that your needs are understood. If necessary, ask follow-up questions and have the quotes tweaked. Once you narrow it down to a few offers based on the specific amount of insurance coverage that you want, you can make the final decision.

primer reconstitution
Posted 01 December 2010 - 04:06 AM
I would like to ask why sometimes we reconstitute primers in water or TE buffer...Thanks

Posted 02 December 2010 - 03:08 AM
Thank you very much for your reply and cooperationThe primers are stable for a longer period of time in TE buffer, however the EDTA in TE can inhibit downstream reactions, that is why for PCR primers should be either diluted or stored in water.
Posted 02 December 2010 - 03:10 AM
Thank you very much for your reply and cooperationIt is a good idea to reconstitute your primers in TE when preparing permanent stocks (100 uM) since they are more stable that way. By the time you dilute them for PCR (1 uM final concentration) the EDTA is too dilute to inhibit PCR.

The Court held a hospital liable for discriminating against Mr. Staub, even though the supervisor who fired him had no intent to discriminate, but acted based on false advice from supervisors with biased intent.
Congress intended the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Act (USERRA) to protect soldiers and reservists against discharge, demotion and other adverse employment decisions because of their military status. By ensuring that military service does not interfere with non-military employment, Congress sought to encourage non-career military service. Once an employee shows military status was a motivating factor in his or her employer's adverse conduct, under USERRA, to avoid liability for discrimination, the employer must show it would have taken the adverse action anyway.
Vincent Staub, a hospital technician, lost his job after disputes with immediate supervisors over time he took off to fulfill Army Reserve duties. His employer argued that Staub was terminated by a third supervisor who did her own investigation of Staub's record and had no anti-military bias.
Staub argued that the third supervisor considered his immediate boss' bias and unfair comments, that these tainted the supposed "independent" investigation, and that even if other reasons existed for terminating him, his reserve status was "a motivating factor" rendering the hospital liable. A jury agreed, awarding almost $60,000 in damages. But an appeals court ruled that an employer only can be held liable for an innocent decision maker's action if that person was clearly manipulated by a biased employee. If the final decision maker undertook an unbiased, independent investigation, and relied on it to reach a decision, the employer was not responsible.
Staub v. Proctor Hospital implicates the so-called "cat's-paw" theory, based on a fable about a monkey who persuaded a cat to pull chestnuts out of a fire; the monkey got the nuts and the cat got a burned paw. A "cat's-paw" case is one in which an employer's agent (the monkey) allegedly uses another (the cat) to accomplish his or her own (discriminatory) purposes.
AARP's brief, filed by AARP Foundation Litigation attorneys, argued that allowing Staub's employer to evade responsibility would undermine the purposes of USERRA. The Supreme Court agreed: "If a supervisor performs an act motivated by antimilitary animus that is intended by the supervisor to cause an adverse employment action, and if that act [even carried out by an innocent third party] is a proximate cause of the ultimate employment action, then the employer is liable under USERRA."
What's at Stake
This case, under a relatively obscure law, is important because USERRA tracks other laws affecting older workers. Employers often make decisions involving multiple levels of supervisors and if only the "final" decision maker's intent matters many cases of serious bias would be lost.
Status of the Case
Staub v. Proctor Hospital returns to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit for consideration whether a new jury trial is required with new jury instructions that comport with this decision or if the earlier jury award should be affirmed.

I just ordered a subscription but Paypal wouldn't let me use my South Korean address. I provided my address in Seoul in the note to seller and requested delivery to same. Please ensure my subscription gets delivered to Seoul!
Thanks! (I left the message here because I didn't see a contact email. Please let me know if I should send an email).
Do you offer a digital/pdf subscription?
Hello! I'm in the same boat as Barbara above. I just placed an order for an International subscription to Hip Mama (starting with #55, the uncensored breastfeeding cover – yay!). My Paypal wouldn't let me input my International address though, so the one that shows up is my US address. I would actually like it sent to me in New Zealand though, please. I didn't think to put the correct address in the comments (I thought I'd be taken back to the subscription page so I could enter the info), but I sent an email to the address that paypal provided. I'm hoping that is sufficient as, like Barbara, I don't see any other place to contact you on the website.
Would you please confirm that you are able to update my account with the correct address?
Thank you so much!
I would like to know if my credit card info went through. I tried paying for a subscription and for Issue#55 but I didn't receive confirmation. Can you please notify me if I have to try to use my card again? Thank you
Hopefully a New Member!
HIya hipmama. so happy to see that y'all are back in action. I have a question and couldn't figure out how else to get in touch with you. I just ordered a subscription and a t-shirt. Got both, but I don't like the t-shirt. I'm not sure if I don't like the cut or if it just doesn't fit me right. So I was wondering if I could order (and pay for) a medium and then send back the one that I didn't like and if I didn't like either if I could send both back and get a rad dad subscription and/or up the hip mama subscription to two years in exchange for the shirt/s? I would of course pay the fee for the second shirt and shipping and return shipping. Please let me know if that sounds reasonable to you.
Hi Ariel, when can I expect the first issue? My order for tank and subscription was placed in mid April. Thanks!

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers watched Luis Suarez "create havoc" in the 3-2 win over Tottenham but felt the character of the whole side pulled them through.
Suarez opened the scoring only for Jan Vertonghen to score twice - with both goals created by Gareth Bale - to turn the match around. However, a bizarre back-pass from Kyle Walker allowed Stewart Downing to equalise and when Suarez was fouled by Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Steven Gerrard stroked home an 82nd-minute penalty winner.
The Premier League's leading scorer Suarez took his tally to 29 for the season - but asked whether that just made him more attractive to Europe's big clubs in the summer, Rodgers said: "Football is worldwide now so everyone has seen how good he is."
He continued: "But he is very happy among his mates here and you have seen it doesn't matter where he plays - he was in the number 10 role and then he went in from the side he still created havoc. He knows the trust I put in him and that gives him the platform to go and perform."
Liverpool recorded three successive league victories for the first time since May 2011 but it was as much about character as performance for the Reds boss.
"It was very important win for us," said the Northern Irishman. "We are on a great run at the moment and we knew this was going to be a severe test of our qualities and character against a team in great form. For us to get three points and show the character was fantastic and I am delighted for the players because they worked ever so hard.
"You can see the mentality in the group. I thought we had to show different characteristics than what we have had to do in recent weeks. We've been comfortable in a lot of the games and been able to control them but against a top side we came through. I had to make some changes to get the control back and when we did that I thought we were good value for the win."
Defeat ended Spurs' 12-match unbeaten league run - their last defeat also coming on Merseyside against Everton in December - and manager Andre Villas-Boas said it was harsh on them.
"It is difficult for us to take because we did ever so well to come back into the game in the first half and we started brightly in the second half," he said. "We lost control of the game when things looked to be going our way, which was more down to a couple of mistakes we did rather than to Liverpool's merit - although they worked very hard."
Villas-Boas refused to blame fatigue after Thursday's 3-0 Europa League win over Inter Milan for allowing Liverpool back into the game. "I think we looked very strong and the overall performance was excellent - it had nothing to do with tiredness," he added.

Hello! sothis is redesigning the anime-planet site, and plans to roll out an awesome new site design in July, we believe. The blog feature is not part of the new design, and it is going away. More information about this here: Announcement: the blog feature is being deprecated topic link. (Be sure to check out the new site design when it goes live!)
This blog page is going away, and will be gone when the site redesign goes live. Your blog here will be removed from the site.
So, if want to keep the information posted in your blog, you will need to copy this information someplace else on the site. If you have any questions how or where to do this, please feel free to get back to me, and I will try to assist.

Be Quiet! Upgrades Straight Power Series with New E9 Power Supplies
Be quiet!, market leader in Germany for five years in a row*, announced today the release of its all new Straight Power E9 line. be quiet!'s best selling line of power supply units (PSUs) has been upgraded in every power range including a new 135 mm cooling system and 80 PLUS Gold certification. Furthermore, for the first time the Straight Power line boasts a five year warranty on all models in the new E9 series.
The previous generation Straight Power E8 became the best sellers for be quiet! receiving over 29 Awards from test sites and journalists internationally. Now, be quiet! is introducing the next step in the Straight Power series. The German based company and design team was focused on improving the earlier product in every critical performance parameter.
SilentWings now in 135 mm
The new Straight Power E9 series features a newly redesigned cooling system with a 135 mm be quiet! SilentWings fan with fluid dynamic bearing. This system provides vital cooling functions at inaudible levels and extremely high reliability. Even at full loads they are among the quietest PSUs in their range thanks in part to the low noise fan grille and anti-vibration mounting. Further reducing noise and vibration every fan blade is tared out individually using tiny weights to eliminate unbalances. Additionally, the design team takes audible noise even lower by eliminating extraneous sounds inside the PSU by modifying electrical and mechanical components.
New Topology results in 80 PLUS Gold
All the E9 models come with 80 PLUS Gold certification with efficiencies up to 93%, resulting in lower cost of ownership and cooler operation. Even the lowest power model with 400 Watts is gold certified, which is unique within the industry as lower power output makes it more difficult to reach the necessary levels of efficiency. This was made possible by using a new topology called "Active Clamp + SR (synchronous rectifier)". Newly designed IC controllers are constantly monitoring the PSU and intervene dynamically to eliminate inefficiencies. Previous topologies use passive components, which don't as readily adapt to changing load situations. Together with vanishingly low standby power drain below 0,3 W the new Straight Power E9 combines power, efficiency and environmentally friendly design.
Multi-GPU and safety functions
Straight Power E9 models feature four independent 12 V rails to ensure best distribution of power, the 400 Watt model has three. It is no problem to power multi graphic processor systems with these power supplies, the series having both AMD CrossFireX or NVidia SLI certifications on appropriate models. And they provide maximum built-in safety protection to safeguard valuable components and data; over current (OCP), over voltage (OVP), under voltage (UVP), short circuit (SCP), over power (OPP) and over temperature (OTP).
"Our Straight Power E9 line up is a worthy successor to its best selling predecessor," said Oleg Ushkats, the director of the product development team. "Our design team worked diligently to improve the critical areas of PSU functionality: silence, stability and efficiency. We are proud to offer this much quality and performance with a five year warranty"
Once again, be quiet! gives consumers the popular choice of with or without cable management. The regular version with fixed cables comes in five models: 400, 450, 500, 600 and 700 Watts. The three models with cable management, which allow users to customize the cabling inside their PC, range from 480 to 680 Watts. Estimated prices (including VAT) start at 79,90 for the 400 W version and range up to 139,90 for the 680 W version with cable management. All Straight Power E9 power supplies are shipping now.

I'm sticking with a strong dollar containing oil futures at $90 a barrel, but roiling commodities markets dont always listen. If Im wrong on oil, copper and coal stocks should do even better. OPEC seems divided. The Saudis talk like world statesmen, with lip service to $80 a barrel. Other members thirst for $100 oil. If the Saudis want $80 oil let them overproduce, drive up inventories, voila! $80 oil: dont hold your breath.
Meanwhile, airline managements bite their nails. Fuel costs are forever a major item and nobodys fully hedged as its too costly to do so. An early inflation indicator in the consumer sector will be a bump up in airline fares, coming soon.
Commodities that are inherently more difficult to scale up in production are likely to spike, namely copper, iron ore and coal. Prices for most thermal and metallurgical grade coal, normally renegotiated annually, look 10 to 20 percent higher in 2011. Same goes for iron ore where prices get renegotiated quarterly, formerly, an annualized tug of war. Coppers trajectory is subject to mine work stoppages and hyper commodities exchange speculation, it's incendiary as worldwide GDP momentum gathers steam.
I discount any amount of gold production as a trivial variable. This is a commodity whose macro indicators are levels of political and economic unrest in the world as well as the ebb and flow of inflationary and deflationary forces at work. I cant call gold, and dont want to own it. Gold is pricing in some combination of a 20 percent slide in the market, 4 percent inflation or up to a 20 percent dollar devaluation. This scenario is pure insanity today.
The huge open interest in copper on the London Metals Exchange is in the hands of a few major players operating behind unmarked doors. All this is reminiscent of Bunker Hunt who pressed to corner the silver market, driving silver from $5 an ounce to $50 over a short time.
Fifty bucks proved the tipping point. Indias females laden with silver bracelets and necklaces turned them in for the great meltdown, along with coffee and tea services plus flatware. Recycling broke the back of this nutty spec bubble and bankrupted one Hunt brother. (He had it coming!)
When I analyze interior market dynamics I detect several intertwined themes. Many money managers still choose double weighting in
Big players crave stocks in the $10 billion to $25 billion market capitalization range with good stories attached. Strangely, analysts and money managers seem to concentrate more on topline growth than immediate profit margin leverage, assuming that follows in due course. Amazon is the prime example here.
Nobody can model when the Kindle gambit turns from a big loss to big bucks but revenues swell into the billions. The entire cloud computer sector sells at 25 times forward 12 months earning power. It embraces properties like
Special Offer: Jim Oberweis had subscribers buy Aruba Networks (ARUN) at $11.73 and Cirrus Logic (CRUS) at $6.82 last February. Both are up more than 100%. LULU is a double, too. What now? Click here for Januarys model portfolio changes in the Oberweis Report.
The no list embraces properties like Microsoft, facing formidable competitive focus on its desk top computing from
While consumer discretionary spending is coming back, only subsectors with leveraged earning power like hotels stay in focus.
The health care sector is becalmed in terms of opportunity. Big pharma houses like
Energy, namely oil, is a captive of daily commodities market fluctuation and how the consensus views the price configuration for the next year or two. My futures charts could be deceiving me because they show little upward progression between 2011 and 2014. The market currently isnt listening, discounting the motive force of the dollar to keep the lid on oil quotes.
Passive investors normally own integrated oil properties like
Conoco at least does even more, selling off assets, reducing debt and equity and hopefully raising its dividend 10 percent, annually. This is a major reallocation of assets story that I want to believe in.
Someday, the price of natural gas snaps back, but nobody dares make this call except as a gut play. Ive chosen pure production operators like
The oil service sector gets some of my new money. Married to
Halliburton sells as 15 times forward twelve a fair working multiplier but not exactly undiscovered. Lesser properties like
Finally, we got to the financials: banks, credit card purveyors, brokerage houses and insurance underwriters. Ultimate earnings leverage is within reach of the banks, followed by brokers, credit card purveyors and insurance underwriters.
The polite insurance play is
I give Mets management credit for banging out Stuyvesant Town at the top of New Yorks real estate bubble in 2007. This is a 10-times earning piece of paper that ratchets up over time. It just slithered from $40 to $45, headed for $50 on valuation alone.
As business conditions quicken, banks net interest margins levitate and old loan losses finally slide off the books. Theyre adequately equitized for everything but another mortgage paper meltdown. Normalized earning power could be reached mid-2012.
I took my Christmas bonus packet (a joke) and plunged into
I eschewed a read of all the analysts long winded music sheets. If I read them, theyd turn me off with their relentless good sense and tepid projections. For me, its like buying Ford at a buck a share at the bottom in 2009. If Detroit sells more cars in 2011-12, Sirius hooks up more subscribers. What more need I know?
Speculation is in the air so I bought a bushels worth. The market filled my basket in a nano second. Short sellers? Next day, I averaged down and even bought 100 shares for each of my five grandchildren. I figured its time for their maiden lesson in gunslinging.

Faith, Hope and Love for a child
The Journey to Parenthood with Bryan and Andrea Missler
I hope that this finds you doing well. I would like to take the opportunity to share a story that will hopefully touch your hearts as much as it has touched mine in such a personal way. My prayer is that especially those of you who have kids will truly embrace this story and be empowered to help that dream come true for someone else.
I am in the process right now of assisting my dearest friend Andrea and her husband Bryan to make a dream of a lifetime come true. God has decided that He wants me to be a surrogate for them so that they can have a baby of their very own. I am very excited to be a part of this process and help them bring a little miracle into this world.
Let me take this opportunity to share this amazing and heart wrenching story:
Bryan and Andrea have been married for 13 years and have always wanted nothing more than to start a family. Unfortunately they have experienced nothing but failure, defeat and heartache but we all know that God is bigger.
After the first three years of marriage and no success of pregnancy due to many things, mainly three slipped discs in Andrea's back and PCOS they decided that they were going to adopt through Children's services foster to adopt program. They were so excited and have always believed that they were meant to raise a soul and this was it. In December of 2004 they started the process to adopt and then just a few months later in March of 2005 were certified and on the same day got the phone call they thought was going to make their dreams come true. They got to bring home a newborn baby from the hospital, name him, and take care of him. He was the miracle that they had been waiting for. All of a sudden when things were going great just 3 short months later they were contacted and told that the child's father wanted him back. This was devastating and all they could think about was how they had always been told and guaranteed that this baby was theirs and nothing was going to change that. They didn't just raise this child for a couple months, they raised him for 11 ½ months and then the system failed them and the child went to live with his father. It was like the world came crashing down on them and now they had to start all over.
After this, it gave them such a feeling of hopelessness and heartache that they didn't know what they would be able to next. After a long time of waiting and praying and seeking the favor of God, they decided that they would try infertility treatments. This was a sure way to help them start their family that they always wanted. In 2006 Bryan and Andrea started infertility and continued it for at least 6 months with no success. Then, Bryan got laid off and was out of work for 18 months so this seemed like it was impossible.
Finally in 2009, Bryan got a new job that offered medical insurance that covered infertility. After everything else, this was sure to be the answer and they wanted to act on it right away. Bryan and Andrea tried infertility again for another 6 months with no success again.
As Andrea has always said, she was meant to raise a soul and it will happen someday. She absolutely loves kids and has the biggest heart I have ever seen. I had been praying for a whole year from 2011-2012 about helping in any way that I could. The Lord revealed to me that I could be a surrogate for Bryan and Andrea. I am healthy and have healthy children so what more could I do then help them have one of their own. When I offered this option to Andrea she embraced it and was touched. This could be the last possible way to make this happen.
The process has been started to go through the IVF process and then the embryo transfer for me to carry Bryan and Andrea's child for them as a gestational surrogate. As many of you know this is a very costly experience but one that is truly priceless in the end. This process could be up to $30,000 or more. I am creating this story to help in fundraising to help this dream come true.
If you would prayerfully consider this story and how it has touched you I think that together we can make Bryan and Andrea's dream come true. Thank you for your time in reading this story and for any donations that you can make. No donation is too big or small and they are so greatly appreciated. You will in turn be blessed for being a blessing to others.
If you would rather give directly and not through the website please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com and I will provide you with information on sending donations.

Celina native attains elite military status
Lonnie Appleget named commander of U.S. Navy helicopter strike squadron
CELINA - Commander Lonnie Appleget is always ready.
Appleget, a 1987 Celina High School graduate, takes over as commander of the U.S. Navy Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 77 in April. Less than 10 percent of eligible Navy officers are selected to become commanders.
Stationed at a Naval Air Facility in Atsugi, just outside Tokyo, Japan, Appleget flies the MH-60R, a multi-mission maritime strike helicopter.
The helicopter crew locates and tracks submarines and surface ships and, if needed, attacks, he said. Other duties may include search-and-rescue, medical evacuation and logistics missions.
Joining the Navy after graduation was partly due to the influence of Appleget's uncles who had served in the Army and Navy. By the time he was 10, Appleget knew he wanted to join the Navy, he said. Another factor was his mother, Sharon Fischer.
"My mom was
a great influence, too," Appleget said. "She ran the house like a boot camp. We had a specific time to get up, specific chores at a set time. I liked that discipline. I knew what I had to do."
As Appleget advanced through high school, he also was influenced by several teachers who helped him build a strong sense of civic duty.
"My mom was
a great influence, too," Appleget said. "She ran the house like a boot camp. We had a specific time to get up, specific chores at a set time. I liked that discipline. I knew what I had to do."
As Appleget advanced through high school, he also was influenced by several teachers who helped him build a strong sense of civic duty.
"Gary Hays, a teacher who had been in the Navy, would tell me stories," Appleget said. "He had a career day once and asked what I wanted to be. I immediately knew the answer - a Navy pilot. I don't know if he will remember me or even realizes how much he's had to do with where I am today."
During nine years as an enlisted sailor, Appleget trained as a shipboard electrician and in 1992 was selected as sailor of the year on the USS George Washington. He earned entrance into the enlisted education advancement program for top sailors. He earned an associate degree, and in 1995 was selected to a meritorious commissioning program and received his officer's commission in 1996. He has a bachelor of science degree in international political economy and a master's degree from the Naval War College in national security and strategic studies. He is working on a master's in business administration degree in finance.
His younger sister, Angie Gibbons, said growing up, her brother was a protector and her best friend.
"We always knew he was born to be a leader," Gibbons said. "Lonnie was always a fun, loving guy. He knows when to be fun and when to be serious."
Appleget believes that being a leader in the military is not far from being a coach in the sporting arena.
"A good coach is a coach who instills discipline, trust and work ethic," Appleget said. "He motivates his team toward a common goal and constantly drives them to accomplish that mission."
Corey Butterini, a school friend, said Appleget was someone "you could always depend on."
"He could always make you laugh," Butterini added.
Appleget said while being in the military has been hard on family life, there is a great feeling of camaraderie.
"We are all committed to what we do," Appleget said. "I miss my family very much and wish I could be home more than a couple times a year."
As for advice for young people interested in joining the military, Appleget said anything a person wants to do in life is possible.
"If you are looking for a job, this isn't it," Appleget said. "If you are looking for an experience that is exciting, new, rewarding, challenging and also feeds into a sense of pride in your community and country - then look no further."
During his career, Appleget has received the defense meritorious service medal; the Navy and Marine Corps commendation medal twice; the Navy and Marine Corps achievement medal five times; a good conduct medal twice; and several unit, campaign and service awards. In 2009, he was chosen as officer of the year and was awarded the 2009 RDML Paulson Award for inspirational leadership.

The Moon
In Tropical Astrology – where the twelve signs of the zodiac begin at the first moment of spring in the Northern Hemisphere – the Moon's influence has been considered of equal importance to that of the Sun for millennia. Part of the reason concerns the monthly dance in the heavens of the solar-lunar cycle of 29.53 days – encompassing the four main phases (New Moon; First Quarter; Full Moon; Last Quarter) as well as other, more subtle divisions of the Sun-Moon relationship.
From the Earth's point of view, we also have the synchronistic fact that while the Sun is approximately 400 times bigger than the Moon, the Moon is 400 times closer to us. This means that during a Total Eclipse of the Sun, the Moon's disk virtually covers the Sun's fiery face – blocking out solar light for a few minutes and creating a path of totality that moves across our planet and invites astute observations by meticulous astronomers as well as stunned visitors often traveling great distances to witness a rare celestial event.
While the Sun-Moon interaction is very significant, the Moon's actual revolution around the Earth takes a little less time (27.322 days). And because the Moon has always been associated with the tides of the oceans and the psychic pull on human emotions (particularly associated with women), this has created a resonance between the Moon and the mysterious rhythms and cycles that are a vital part of our physical, emotional and mental make-up as soul-infused individuals.
When the first astronauts encircled the Moon in 1968 (only a few months before the first human landing on July 20, 1969), they sent back pictures of the dark side of the Moon – never seen before by earthlings. The reason we don't see that dark side is due to the curious fact that while the Moon's revolution around the Earth takes 27.322 days, the Moon is also rotating on its axis in exactly the same time-span. Therefore, it only shows one face to us – although from the Sun's perspective, the dark side will be completely lit up when we on Earth experience New Moon.
In natal chart interpretation, the Moon, the Sun and the Rising Degree on the Eastern Horizon (the Ascendant) exist as a kind of supreme trinity affecting the destiny pattern of the individual born at a specific moment at a particular place on Earth.
While millions of people believe they are simply their Sun-sign, the reality is that a complete horoscope (composed of Sun, Moon, 8 main planets, 4 key asteroids, Chiron, the Lunar Nodes or Orbit of the Moon, the Rising Degree, 12 houses surrounding the birth moment, 12 signs forming an electro-magnetic field or aura, and the mathematical interrelationships of all of these factors) is the key to one's higher purpose from the astrological perspective.
Within the trinity of Moon, Sun and Rising Degree, the Moon is more indicative of the past while the Sun rules the present and the Rising Degree represents the future. In another manner of interpreting these three factors in every birth chart, the Moon connects strongly to one's personality while the Sun is the character, and the Rising Degree becomes the unique manner, window or self-oriented pathway in which the Moon, Sun and all the celestial bodies at birth assist the individual in contacting the outside world.
The Moon is associated with memories, moods, rhythms, cycles, instincts, subliminal impulses, the water element, and – in a broader sense – with being nurtured, fed and the feeling of "being at home." From a more esoteric perspective – if one accepts the idea of reincarnation – the Moon appears to be a reservoir or repository of "past-life memories" as well as signifying a sign of the zodiac with which this soul is very familiar over many life-times.
Since the Moon and its phases have much to do with the so-called astral plane of visions, altered-reality, and out-of-the-body experiences, the transiting lunar orb in the sky may periodically stimulate the dreaming mechanism within all human beings – providing glimpses of lives in past cultures and civilizations or, once in a while, offering portents ahead of time of what is to happen in the future.
Ancient and medieval astrology has always indicated that the Moon rules the fourth sign of Cancer (connected to family, home, mothering, bodies of water, the Crab and the Domestic Cat, psychic sensitivity, moods and deep-seated feelings) as well as the fourth house of a birth chart (home; roots; foundations; childhood memories; the past).
An excellent technique for understanding the power of the Moon at someone's birth is to utilize the concept presented a couple of paragraphs earlier about "being at home" or "feeling at home." For example, someone born with a Moon in the fifth house will feel they are "at home" while being creative and engaged in playful, child-like and heart-felt interactions with partners, friends and associates. A person with a Moon in the tenth house will feel "at home" in the public eye and while engaged in professional work. Someone born with a third house Moon placement will be at home while reading, study and teaching. An individual coming into incarnation with an eleventh house Moon will be attracted to group projects, team work as well as developing a wide circle of friends in which they can express their feelings and moods.
The sign the Moon is located in at birth is often a tell-tale indicator of Sun-sign activity in a previous life or during many lives in the past. For example, the Moon's presence in Leo in this lifetime strongly indicates past-life experience within royal families and/or that the individual was a Sun-sign Leo in a recent or important past-life that is now being rekindled for some kind of karmic purpose. Someone born with a Sagittarius Moon reveals a strong adventurous, exploratory and philosophical streak and/or that the individual was a Sun-sign Sagittarius in the past.
Whether the Moon is visible (upper half of the chart) or invisible (lower half of the chart), whether the Moon is waxing and increasing in reflected sunlight or waning and decreasing in reflected sunlight, as well as all the aspects the Moon is making to other celestial bodies in the birth chart – all of these factors and many others need to be understood when analyzing the natal horoscope as well as watching transits and progressions (the key cycles of moving celestial bodies after the birth moment).
Since the Moon takes 27.322 days to make a complete orbit through the zodiac and there are 12 signs, the transiting Moon will take approximately 2.28 days or about 55 hours to go through one sign of the zodiac. Thus, the Moon spends about 2+ days going through each of your 12 houses – coloring and influencing the affairs of that house in your life. In addition, the Moon will unite with every celestial body in your birth chart (for a few hours) in each 27+ day time-period – impacting the themes, qualities and meanings of that celestial body. Therefore, 13 times in a calendar year, the Moon brings its energy, sustenance, and support to every one of your celestial bodies – somewhat like a mother feeding a child. Thus, it definitely pays to become a Moon watcher – learning the intimate secrets of the Moon's motions relative to the Earth, the Sun, the signs of the zodiac, and the 12 houses of your birth chart.
Deeply associated with the Moon are its orbital nodes or intersecting points (North and South) with the Earth's orbit around the Sun. Just as the Moon connects strongly with the past, it is synchronistic that the Moon's Nodes travel in reverse – making one retrograde cycle through the zodiac in approximately 18.6 years.
The Nodes are a powerhouse in any birth chart – having much to do with higher destiny and fate. The houses in which the nodes reside are given extra significance in a birth chart interpretation. Eclipses can only take place when the Sun and Moon are relatively near one or other of the two nodes. If a celestial body at birth is at one of the nodes, then that solar systemic body is being accentuated – for good or ill – from the soul's perspective.
Keep in mind that the Moon's nodes constitute the actual orbit of the Moon while the Moon itself can be considered the concretized essence of that orbit. While much of the interpretation in any chart consultation focuses attention on the Sun, Moon and celestial bodies, the orbit of the Moon as well as the orbits of the 8 major planets in the solar system have their place in the dynamics of birth chart analysis.
It is considered auspicious and empowering when – during every 27+ day transiting cycle of the Moon through the entire zodiac – the Moon enters the sign of an individual's North Node. It is then – during an approximate 2+ day time-period – that the person experiences their "high cycle of the month," a valuable time-span to make phone calls and appointments, initiate plans, be more organized and efficient, complete important tasks, act intuitively and feel more self-confident.
Working with the Moon's essential meaning, its powerful phases, rhythms and cycles can be one of the most fascinating reasons to study your birth chart and upcoming transits and progressions in greater depth.
Welcome to the mysteries and secrets of Lunar Astrology.

side stand non availability
Product is very Good... But the scooters were not available in the colours of choice - in the sense - within the limited number of colours offered, the one that my son liked was not there. My impression from the discussions over there is that until all pieces gets sold, it will not be replenished - indirect pushing of the slow moving colours. Its not fair on your customers.
Dear Dattari,
Thank you for taking the time to your review on our Oxelo MID 7 scooter. This model is available in three different colours which are Blue, Black & Pink. We are really sorry for the unavailability for the particular colour wich you were looking for your son. We don't push slow moving product or something similar, it is just due to availability of our stock. I will get back to you for the solution of this very soon.
Thank you again for writing us on the way to improve our service.
Prateek Gondane,
Commercial & Communication Manager, Oxelo
good. my son loves it.
Bought for a growing grand-daughter who previously had a scooter with small wheels. She had problems with the small wheels because of stones getting between the wheel and guard, jamming up. This model was also bigger and she was delighted with how it looked and performed. The larger wheels gave a smoother ride. It was impressive that it came with Allen keys for adjusting things.
Felt robust and reliable
Good service
No stand
Excellent service all round
Bought it for my grandson he loves it
I'm to old to ride it
Super scooter great for the children, easy to build, easy to maintain, loved it!
Children loved it! Great scooter, great fun just p
Bought this for my 8 year old son. Brilliant scooter for the price. Very robust, good bearings, reasonable weight. Cant fault it really.

I am looking at buying a used 2004 Sentra Spec-V. I've test drove it twice and had trouble shifting into 6th gear. I read through some of the posts and people said it takes some getting used to. The second time I drove the car, I was able to get it into 6th gear but it felt sluggish and I needed to apply more force than any of the other gears. Also, when downshifting, it was hard to get it back into 5th. I would either have to jump over to 4th or jiggle the shifter in neutral a bit before it would go back into 5th.
So my question is, is there a trick to getting it into 6th? Or is there a potential transmission problem? I have had a couple 5-speeds in the past, but I admit I know more about engines than transmissions. |
I think the earlier 04 models didnt have a reverse lockout mechanism. Takes some getting used to. The reverse lockout on my '05 broke yrs ago. I just got used to it.
Thanks for the advice. I'm going to check out another Spec-V tomorrow and compare that to the first one if I get a chance to test drive it.
I'd like to say its just me needing to get used to the gears since I love how this car drives. But, even when I was able to get the shifter into 6th gear, it took a lot of force. That and the problem of getting back into fifth when shifting out of 6th. All in all, my concern is that I could be potentially buying a car that has a tranny that is about to crap out. |
Well there's actually two I want to check out. There's a 2005 and a 2002.
I'm assuming the 2005 would have the lockout mechanism like yours, and the 2002 wouldn't. I think saw on some of the threads that the tranny's from 2002 are a little different as well, so I don't know how great of a comparison that would be. I would love to know what the issue is with the 2004, but I'm scared to buy it if the transmission potentially has serious issues. |

What's wrong with this Applet?
I wrote the following Applet. When I run it in a browser, it shows the "Start" button,
but when I click on it, I get a java.lang.NullPointerException.
Even the "Hello?" doesn't get displayed. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any hint!
Here's the Applet code:
Java Code:import java.awt.*; import java.applet.Applet; import java.awt.event.*; import java.awt.Desktop; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; public class StartFile extends Applet implements ActionListener { public Desktop desktop; public Button btn; public void init() { btn = new Button("Start"); add(btn); btn.addActionListener(this); } public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) { System.out.println("Hello?"); //~ if (Desktop.isDesktopSupported()) {} if (event.getSource() == btn) { String fileName = "c:\\temp\\foo.txt"; // txtFile.getText(); System.out.println(fileName); File file = new File(fileName); try { desktop = Desktop.getDesktop(); desktop.open(file); //~ desktop.edit(file); //~ desktop.print(file); } catch (IOException ioe) { ioe.printStackTrace(); } } } }
Here's the Java Console output:
Java Code:Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-11" java.lang.NullPointerException at StartFile.actionPerformed(StartFile.java:27) at java.awt.Button.processActionEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Button.processEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEventImpl(Unknown Source) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEventImpl(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue.access$000(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(Unknown Source) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue$4.run(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue$4.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForFilters(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForFilter(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(Unknown Source) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Unknown Source)
Re: What's wrong with this Applet?
Which line is line 27 in your StartFile code as noted by: "StartFile.java:27"?
And how do you know that "Hello" isn't displayed? Have you inspected a Java console?

Re: What's wrong with this Applet?
So, which is line 27?
In general the NullPointerException occurs when you dereference (use) variable as if it had a non null value when, in fact, it was null.
Java Code:arr[bar] = baz; // but arr is null foo.meth(arg); // but foo is null
Re: What's wrong with this Applet?
You have a println first in the actionPerformed method that should have printed in the Java console.
What isn't that printout shown in your post of the java console contents?

Re: What's wrong with this Applet?
Oops, the problem wasn't in the code at all!
It seems that I must restart my browser each time I recompiled a Java applet. I didn't notice this yesterday evening. This morning the applet worked as expected, displaying "Hello?" and "c:\temp\foo.txt" in the Java Console.
I guess I should rather use applet viewer when testing applets.
Thanks for your replies which helped me indirectly to find the explanation.

Taking the Temperature of Business Executives
As the Memorial Day turn approaches, and the warm summer weather arrives (in theory and in hope), IB conducted a survey to glean what area businesses are still worried about, and what makes them optimistic over the next six to 12 months.
Nationally, the economy appears to be turning a corner with three consecutive quarters of economic growth and two straight encouraging monthly jobs reports, but economists are still all over the map on the strength of the unfolding recovery. Skeptics cite the under-employment rate, the government's broader measure of unemployment, which actually increased slightly to 17.1% in April and will take time to whittle down.
Our recent survey, conducted via e-mail, reflects this lack of consensus.

Organize Photos for Free With Fotobounce
Fotobounce, a free (but ad-supported) app is designed to help shake the dust and cobwebs off your digital photo collection, by organizing and helping you share your photos. Recently updated to version 3.1, it now offers more control over just how you share those photos. Like earlier versions, this one offers some pretty nifty features, but also suffers from a few glitches.
Once installed, Fotobounce will find your photos in the locations to which you direct the app. The company says its organization features are "people-centric" and, as such, the app's key feature is its Face Recognition Technology. It's designed to learn to recognize the faces that appear in your photos--with a little training, of course. It automatically finds faces in your photos, and you can tag people to identify them. Once you start tagging people, Fotobounce is supposed to learn their identities, and should begin identifying them for you.
The facial recognition didn't always work as advertised, however--and the iteration of it in version 3.1 was just as buggy as it was when I tested version 3.0 a few months back. I tested the app with a large library containing thousands of photos, and went through some of them, tagging the same person over and over again. I also used the app's Eye Locations system, which allows you to identify the locations of eyes in photos in order to improve facial recognition, but I was still disappointed with the results. Fotobounce was successful in identifying faces less than 50 percent of the time in my informal tests. It also identified random objects, such as a set of stairs, as a face. Luckily, you can easily reject its suggestions and apply your own tags instead.
Fotobounce allows you to share your photos in several different ways. You can connect the app to your Facebook or Flickr accounts to upload your photos or albums, and it will keep your tags intact. When you link Fotobounce to your Facebook account, it will import a list of your friends and allow you to tag them directly in any photos in your Fotobounce library.
In addition, the app allows you to share photos directly with friends via a private peer-to-peer connection that the company likens to "Skype for photos." To do this, you send invitations to people you'd like to add as "Bouncers"; they, in turn, have to install Fotobounce on their computers in order to see your photos. New in version 3.1 is the ability to control which photos each Bouncer can see, which is a most welcome addition. I also like that a bug I found in the last version of the app, which blocked the initiations I sent to potential bouncers from being received, has been fixed. All of my invitations arrived without delay.
Fotobounce also lets you view your photo collection from a mobile device with a browser, such as an iPhone, iPod Touch, or a BlackBerry. You do this by setting up a user name and password in the desktop version of the app, and then pointing your mobile browser to Fotobounce's mobile URL. From here, it's easy enough to browse through your photo library, but I found the interface somewhat inelegant. I tested Fotomobile on an iPhone 4, and was disappointed to see that my photos never filled the phone's screen. Instead, they were small and sometimes displayed off-center.
Also new in version 3.1 is a feature called Fotomail. This lets you send photos from your mobile device right to your Fotobounce account. It works by assigning you a specific Fotomail e-mail address, and is easy to use. It's a handy way to get the full-resolution photos from your mobile device added to your photo library.
I like Fotobounce as a free photo organizer: in addition to organizing photos by person, you can sort them by date and place. It makes scrolling through a large photo collection a snap. I'd like to see the face recognition improve, however. Until it does, it takes more time than it saves.

The board of controversial mining giant BHP Billiton is set to be criticised at its AGM next month by an Indonesian activist.
India's Dongria Kondh tribe has overwhelmingly rejected plans by British mining giant Vedanta Resources for an open-pit bauxite mine in their sacred Niyamgiri Hills.
In a landmark judgment, an Australian mining company has been fined for desecrating an Aboriginal sacred site.
Citizens concerned about the risks of deep sea mining targeted the Deep Sea Mining Industry Summit last week, picketing the Cumberland Hotel in London.
Mining giant Vedanta Resources has been humiliated ahead of its AGM after tribal villages in India voted against its plans to build a bauxite mine on their sacred mountain.
A groundbreaking new campaign has been launched in India to challenge the deep-seated prejudice that tribal peoples are 'backwards' and 'primitive'.
Brazil's head of indigenous affairs has resigned, citing ill health. Her resignation follows the police killing of a Terena Indian and moves against indigenous rights.
Papuan leaders have voiced their concern at plans for Indonesian soldiers to build 1,500 km of new roads in the next two years to accelerate 'development' in West Papua.
A rally of defiance has taken place at the foothills of India's Niyamgiri Hills by thousands of tribal people opposing to Vedanta's controversial mine.
A new report by the ABCColombia aid consortium shows why British companies risk "reputational damage" as part of the Colombia mining boom.
