Mozambique seeks ways to implement Green Economy
Speaking during the opening session of the workshop, the Minister for Coordination of Environmental Affairs representative, Mr. Daude Mahomade, who is the Director for the Environmental Quality Agency, emphasised the importance of the capacity building event for the advancement of the Mozambique Green Economy Roadmap and Action Plan.
"We hope this workshop will allow us to enhance our domain of technical issues for the implementation of our Green Economy Roadmap and explore opportunities to strengthen partnerships to assist in the implementation of this economic model relevant to the sustainable development of our country, of the continent and of the world in general," said the Minister.
On her part, the WWF Mozambique Country Director, Anabela Rodrigues noted that the workshop provides a good opportunity for all partners involved to work towards sustainable development through Green Economy.
"This is a unique opportunity for the Government of Mozambique to influence all development actors and partners, as well as the private sector, to understand the need for a sustainable development and the role of Natural Capital for the development of the country," said the Country Director.
The country's Green Economy Roadmap was launched during a high level event involving the President of the African Development Bank and the Director of the World Wildlife Fund for Nature at the Rio+20 Conference in June 2012. Since then, Mozambique has made significant strides in the establishment of Green Economy policies and strategies.
As such, the launch of the roadmap has been followed by the development of a clear Action Plan for Green Growth, in a process linked to the long-term National Development Strategy (ENDE) 2015-2035, which clearly recognises the fundamental role of the sustainable management of natural resources for economic development to benefit present and future generations.
Mozambique' Green Economy Roadmap is a vision document that draws broad outlines of the elements of a green growth strategy for Mozambique.
In Mozambique, the majority of economic activities including the livelihoods of the population depend on the natural capital that is available, whether for food supply (agriculture), tourism, mining, energy, timber, fisheries, or otherwise. Recent research assessing the country's wealth found that both renewable and non renewable natural capital accounted for 49% of total wealth, dominated by subsoil resources (41%), cropland (30%) and timber resources (15%), which is significantly higher than the Sub-Saharan African average of 24% (MICOA & AFD 2009).
In light of the recent announcement of the Primeiras & Segundas Multi-use Conservation Area, the region has been identified as an ideal case study where natural capital mapping could support the development of an integrated management plan. The exercise is intended to inform the planning process by providing an accurate understanding of the costs and benefits (be it in biophysical terms, economic opportunities, or social indicators such as jobs, livelihoods, security etc.) of different economic and policy scenarios with regards to the management of the rich natural resources of the region.

The Magnificat is a canticle usually sung during the Sunday Matins service before the irmos of the ninth ode of the canon. It is taken from the words the Theotokos is reported to have said to describe the experience of being pregnant with Jesus. Shortly after being informed by archangel Gabriel of her holy pregnancy, according to the Biblical account, Mary the Theotokos visited her cousin Elisabeth the wife of Zechariah (herself pregnant at the time with John the Baptist); and in response to Elizabeth's salutation she spoke the words of the Magnificat, which accordingly appears in the Gospel of Luke, 1:46-55.
Although like other New Testament texts the Magnificat was originally written in Greek, in the Western Church is most often to be found in Latin or the vernacular. Its name comes from the first word of the Latin version.
English (Book of Common Prayer):
- My soul doth magnify the Lord: and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
- For he hath regarded the lowliness of his handmaiden; For behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
- For he that is mighty hath magnified me: and holy is his name; And his mercy is on them that fear him throughout all generations.
- He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
- He hath put down the mighty from their seat and hath exalted the humble and meek; He hath filled the hungry with good things and the rich he hath sent empty away.
- He remembering his mercy hath holpen his servant Israel: as he promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his seed, for ever.
It is accompanied by a refrain that is sung between the verses:

Bogota, Colombia's Cool Capital City
Bogotá: A Lively, Huge City Worth Exploring
By Jasmine Stephenso
Dubbed the Athens of South America, Bogotá is a pulsating urban sprawl home to edgy subcultures, innovative street art, a lively student population, world renowned festivals, and about eight million people.
Bogotá is so complex, in fact, that it is difficult to get to know the city in a short space of time - or over a long period, for that matter. Located at 8700 feet, some visitors take a while to get acclimated to the altitude. Compared with other Colombian cities, Bogota is colder, due to the altitude and mountainous surroundings.
Despite being one of the largest cities in the world, Bogotá is often allotted just a couple of days on many travelers' itineraries. Many of those that do visit stick to Bogotá's historic neighborhood, La Candelaria, with forays to Monserrate, the church on top of one of the surrounding mountains, and the salt cathedral in Zipaquirá. For the off-the-beaten-path traveler, Bogotá has thousands of cool spots waiting to be explored.
Meet the Rolos
Rolos, or people from Bogotá, are reputed to have the clearest accent in the Spanish-speaking world. Many prefer to use the formal usted instead of tú, even between good friends and family members. To be polite, it's best to use usted in business settings and with people older than you. As Colombia is a fairly new player on the tourist map, most residents are extremely welcoming to visitors. Though Rolos have an internal reputation for being distant, they are in fact quite friendly and helpful. If you get lost, don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it.
As the famous one-time Colombian tourist slogan goes, "The only risk is wanting to stay." The truth of this propaganda can be largely attributed to the warmth of its people - even those from the capital. Walking around the city feels safe, though any local will give you the advice: No dar papaya, or "don't put yourself in a risky position" by flaunting money and such.
The City of Festivals
Parque Central Simón Bolívar, the city's biggest venue, is home to tons of music festivals annually. The biggest is Rock al Parque, one of the largest music festivals in the world that brought in more than 300,000 people last year. The park also hosts festivals of salsa, jazz, and hip hop, as well as a Colombian festival dedicated to local music, food, and dance.
The Secretary of Culture, Recreation and Sports's website lists dates and event descriptions. Recognized as the World Book Capital by UNESCO in 2007, Bogotá will be celebrating its 24th book fair from May 4 to May 16, 2011. Event days will see national and international authors hosting seminars, presentations, and lectures on a variety of literary topics.
Every two years, the largest theater festival in the world can be found in the city, which takes places over 17 days and features acts from all over the globe. During the celebration, Bogotá explodes in performance art, with workshops, parades, and all forms of theater inside of venues and out on the streets.
A Breath of Fresh Air
Bogotá is afflicted with the pollution, noise, and traffic that come from a city of this size. For the nature lover, there are hundreds of parks that offer a bit of peace and quiet from the commotion.
Parque de Los Novios, on Carrera 45 and Calle 63, is one of the more romantic spots in the city. Stroll around the tranquil park hand in hand with your significant other, admiring the ducks paddling across the lawn and the green environs. If you're lucky, you may catch a wedding party or two snapping photos and celebrating the new union.
The Jardín Botánico José Celestino Mutis, located on Calle 63 No. 68-95, is another one of my favorite chill-out spots in the city. Along with an herb collection, a butterfly garden, and a lake, the botanic gardens offer lots of room to bask in the sun (if it's out that day) and lose yourself in the serenity of the surroundings.
Market Scavenging
Bogotá offers shopping options for every budget and every taste. You could head to the American-style malls in the north, but wandering through the city's quirky markets is a more interesting way to spend time. The Mercado de Pulgas San Alejo, held every Sunday on Carrera 7 and Calle 24, is a funky flea market full of antiques, housewares, handmade goods, and everything in between. It's smallish and not too overwhelming, making it a good introduction to the Latin American market scene for newbies.
San Andresito is a living, breathing bazaar that encompasses several streets and offers at least five of everything you could ever want or need
The market stretches over several branches found in various parts of the city, though the biggest and most entertaining is on and around Carrera 38 and Calle 9. If you head here solo, be very aware of your surroundings, though your best bet is to go with a local.
On Friday nights, La Septima (Carrera 7) turns into a huge open air market that reaches from Plaza de Bolivar to Calle 19. Even if you're not interested in picking through the odds and ends, it's worth a stroll to see the street performers, jam to spontaneous karaoke sessions, and witness the general chaos that ensues downtown.
Eat and Drink Coffee
Bogotá has a surprisingly extensive vegetarian scene, so my fellow herbivores will be extremely happy here. One of the chicest choices is Maha, located at Carrera 7 #46 - 42, with Asian-style floor seating and views of the street below.
Their menu offers innovative fusion dishes from all corners of the globe at economical prices.
A visit to Colombia isn't complete without a sampling of the arepa, a local snack made from cornmeal or corn, often served with cheese or meat.
Though the best come from the region of Antioquia, there's a local spot called the Metro Arepa on Carrera 10 and Calle 63 in Chapinero whose arepas are mind blowing. Sitting on one of the small eatery's stools, elbow to elbow with other arepa-loving Rolos, stuffing salsa-smothered arepas in your mouth is pure bliss.
In the heart of Bogotá's north, where the wealthy and expat population call home, is Parque 93. For those with a spacious travel budget, take your pick of the high-end and American restaurants that line its edges. Crepes & Waffles is a wildly popular Colombian franchise that specializes in extravagant plates heavy on calories and deliciousness. If you're between meals, sip a café mocha at either Oma or Juan Valdez, Colombia's answer to Starbucks. La Macarena, Bogotá's bohem
ian neighborhood set uphill from Parque la Independencia, is another excellent spot to find trendy restaurants and cozy cafes. Part homey bookstore, part cool café, Luvina, La Esquina Cultural, on Carrera 5a #26A-06, is my favorite place to hang out in the neighborhood.
In and Around Bogotá
Bogotá is served by the Transmilenio, a rapid bus system that was created as a solution to excessively long bus journeys and city traffic. While nicknamed the "pride of Bogotá", residents call it the Transmilleno, lleno meaning full. During peak periods before and after normal working hours, expect long waits, large crowds, and little breathing room.
There is also an impressive bus network that extends to every corner of the city. Though slightly overwhelming for visitors, they are frequent and a bit cheaper than the Transmilenio at 1400 pesos per ride. Buses list the neighborhoods served and main roads on a sign in the front window. If you're unsure, you can always ask the bus driver if he passes a certain area before hopping on.
Bogotá is serviced by two domestic bus terminals. The major bus terminal is Terminal de Transporte S.A., which serves all of Colombia and is most likely the station you'll leave from. However, if taking a short trip north, like to Zipaquirá, you'll catch a connecting bus from the north terminal just off the Transmilenio line.

Adaptation can significantly reduce adverse impacts of climate change.
Adaptation is an important part of societal response to global climate change.
Planned, anticipatory adaptation has the potential to reduce vulnerability and
realize opportunities associated with climate change effects and hazards. There
are numerous examples of successful adaptations that would apply to climate
change risks and opportunities. Substantial reductions in climate change damages
can be achieved, especially in the most vulnerable regions, through timely deployment
of adaptation measures.
In the absence of planned adaptation, communities will adapt autonomously
to changing climatic conditions, but not without costs and residual damages.
Societies and economies have been making adaptations to climate for centuries.
However, losses from climate-related extreme events are substantial and, in
some sectors, increasingindicating patterns of development that remain
vulnerable to temporal variations in climatic conditions and to climate change.
The ecological, social, and economic costs of relying on reactive, autonomous
adaptation to the cumulative effects of climate change are substantial and largely
avoidable through planned, anticipatory adaptation.
The key features of climate change for vulnerability and adaptation are
those that relate to variability and extremes, not simply changed average conditions.
In addition, the speed of changes in event frequency is important. Most communities,
sectors, and regions are reasonably adaptable to changes in average conditions,
unless those changes are particularly sudden or not smooth. However, these communities
are more vulnerable and less adaptable to changes in the frequency and/or magnitude
of conditions other than average, especially extremes. Changes in the frequency
and magnitude of extremes underlie changes in mean conditions and thus are inherent
in climate change; adaptation initiatives to these hazards are of particular
Implementation of adaptation policies, programs, and measures usually will
have immediate as well as future benefits. Adaptations to current climate
and climate-related risks (recurring droughts, storms, floods, and other extremes)
generally are consistent with adaptation to changing and changed climatic conditions.
Adaptations to changing climatic conditions are more likely to be implemented
if they are consistent with or integrated with decisions or programs that address
nonclimatic stresses. Vulnerabilities associated with climate change rarely
are experienced independent of nonclimatic conditions. Impacts of climatic stimuli
are felt via economic or social stresses, and adaptations to climate (by individuals,
communities, and governments) are evaluated and undertaken in light of these
conditions. The costs of adaptation often are marginal to other management or
development costs. To be effective, climate change adaptation must consider
nonclimatic stresses and be consistent with existing policy criteria, development
objectives, and management structures.
Adaptive capacity varies considerably among regions, countries, and socioeconomic
groups. The ability to adapt and cope with climate change impacts is a function
of wealth, technology, information, skills, infrastructure, institutions, and
equity. Groups and regions with limited adaptive capacity are more vulnerable
to climate change damages.
Development decisions, activities, and programs play important roles in
modifying the adaptive capacity of communities and regions, yet they tend not
to take into account risks associated with climate variability and change.
This omission in the design and implementation of many recent and current development
initiatives results in unnecessary additional losses to life, well-being, and
investments in the short and longer terms.
Enhancement of adaptive capacity is necessary to reduce vulnerability, particularly
for the most vulnerable regions, nations, and socioeconomic groups. Activities
required for the enhancement of adaptive capacity are essentially equivalent
to those that promote sustainable development and equity.
Current knowledge about adaptation and adaptive capacity is insufficient
for reliable prediction of adaptations and for rigorous evaluation of planned
adaptation options, measures, and policies of governments:

From Traderpedia
Binary betting is a modern method of speculation that arose as an offshoot of spread betting and soon became popular with traders. It is an unusual and interesting hybrid between fixed odds and spread betting.
[edit] Why is a binary bet?
A binary bet is a bet that a specified event will occur. If the event happens the bet is settled at the quoted odds. If the event does not occur you loose your stake. With a binary bet there are only two possible outcomes and the maximum gain if you win and the potential loss if you loose is known at the time you place the bet. A binary bet is a "fixed odds" bet just like a bet on a horse race because the odds you get if the event happens are known at the time you place the bet.
However unlike classic "fixed odds" sporting bets, binary bets are tradable until expiry (like a spread bets) which gives you the option of taking profits early.
Binary bet prices are not based upon the underlying price of the instrument, but upon the odds of an event occurring.
In investment banking nomenclature binary bets are known as "digital" or "binary options".
[edit] How are the odds quoted?
Most binary betting providers quoted a continuous, fluctuating two-way price (bid and offer) quoted as numbers between 0 and 100, others provide individual quotes for bet placement and quotes for position sale. The trader can buy or sell at any point. This includes open positions which can be closed before expiry at their current value, allowing a trader to lock in profit or cut a loss. The greater the chance of the event occurring then the higher the quote will be and vice versa. A time element will obviously be included in the quote, so that if the event becomes so likely as to be almost certain (e.g. if the FTSE is 50 points up at 16:28 then the quote for it to close up might be 96-99 or 97-100 as the outcome is so likely as to be almost a certainty). This is similar to the time value of options.
In order to place a bet a trader simply buys or sells at the current quoted offer or bid price respectively. If the event does occur the bet is settled at 100.
[edit] Example 1: a single-strike binary bet
A single-strike binary bet allows you to bet that a market will close higher or lower than it's current price (or a strike price you specify).
Imagine a bid/offer price is quoted on the "S&P 500 Index to finish higher on the day" at say 81-85 (i.e. the bookmaker thinks the odds of this happening are quite high).
A trader who agrees with this view (perhaps it is late in the day and the S&P is up by a healthy percentage, so the chance of it ending down is small) could buy a certain number of pounds per point at 85. Let's say he buys £100 per point.
Bet: Index will close up. 85 x £100 per point.
Index closes up. Bet expires at 100. Profit is 15 x 100 = £1500
The leading providers of single-strike binary betting are IG Index, Tradefair, BetOnMarkets.co.uk, TradeSmarter, StartOptions
[edit] Example 2: a double-strike binary bet
A double-strike binary bet allows you to bet that a market will close within a range of strike prices you specify allowing the trader greater control over the odds offered.
Imagine the the decimal odds quoted on the "S&P 500 Index to finish between 1003 and 1005" are 12 (i.e. the bookmaker thinks the odds of this happening are quite low).
A trader who agrees with this view could place a bet a these odds. Let's say he places a bet for £100.
Index closes between 1003 and 1005. Bet wins. Trader's profit is (12 - 1) x £100 = £1100
The leading provider of double-strike binary betting is CityOdds.
[edit] Key features
[edit] Example trading strategies
[edit] Fade sudden moves
The trading strategy is simple in its application. It looks for sudden sharp moves (high/lower) on the back of news (in almost any market) and then bets that the move will reverse.
For example, some fantastic economic news is announced which bids the FTSE 100 sharply higher. The quote that it will close higher bounds up to, say, 90-94, at which point we would bet that the move will not last and the market will head back down. The risk to reward ratio is good since we would risk 10 to potentially make 90 (multiplied by our stake).
Stock indices fit the bill perfectly because they have a habit of over-reacting, getting a lot of punters say buying only for this buying to dry up. Then selling pressure creates more pressure (after all if everyone has bought who is left to buy) and before long itââ¬â¢s a rout to get out. This is what the betting strategy tries to take advantage off, and the bonus is that the risk is often small with the payout large.

|Although we have run out of Connecticut Whale Tickets, we would like to invite you to view tickets in the following places
Details of Connecticut Whale and the Ticket Luck value
The Connecticut Whale is one of the foremost teams in the American Hockey League, with many a championship to its name. Its home arena is the XL Center and it is owned by the Madison Square Garden Inc. It is a member of the Eastern Conference's Northern Division. It was founded in 1926 as a member of the Canadian American Hockey League. Its official colors are green, light blue, white and blue. Each year, many Connecticut Whale tickets are sold to many fans of the team, who often comment on their amazing experience.
The Connecticut Whale's general manager is Jim Schoenfeld with Ken Gernander as the head coach. In the media, the team's partner is The Rock 106.9 WCCC-FM. It is affiliated with the New York Rangers of the NHL and the Greenville Road Warriors of the ECHL. They were known as the Providence Reds from their founding until 1976. After that, they spent a year as the Rhode Island Reds and three as the Binghamton Dusters. From 1980 until 1990, they were known as the Binhamton Whalers and then as the Binghamton Rangers for seven more.
They then moved to Hartford, becoming the Hartford Wolf Pack from 1997 to 2010. Since 2010, they have been known as the Connecticut Whale. They are the proud owners of one regular season title and three Division Championships, the last two of which were won in 2004 and 2009. They have also won one Conference Championship and one Calder Cup, the AHL's greatest achievement.
The Connecticut Whale were originally named the Wolf Pack after a name the team contest and in honor of the state's naval tradition since it was home to the main submarine base of the US Navy and the main builder of submarines, General Dynamics Electric Boat. The first ever coach of the team was E.J McGuire and in their very first game, they defeated the Springfield Falcons by 2-0.
The Connecticut Whale have missed only one playoff during the course of their career, making it to all other playoffs. In 2011, they played host to the AHL Outdoor Classic, held at the Rentschler Field located in East Hartford. Brad Smyth holds the record for the most goals in a season with Derek Armstrong holding the record for the most assists and points. In summary, a team to view live with Connecticut Whale tickets in hand.

Mr. Phibious T. Toadlington
Mr. Phibious T. Toadlington is filthy.
And proud of it.
He wears rags and old sacks for his cloak and scarf, both of which are always caked in mud. He'll wear them until they fall apart, and simply replace them with some other scrap material he's found on his daily hunt for treasures.
He's loud - boisterous and charming to some, obnoxious and pompous to others. The one thing they agree on is he's a business man (of sorts). He gets things done, and will rarely shy away from even the most unsavoury task...if the price is right.
Phibious loves to haggle a price. I'm not sure if clients give in to his demands because he's a good negotiator, or because they know he can get the job done, or because they just can't stand the stink of him from across the table.
Another curious question surrounding him is his pot belly. He always has one hand on it. There have been whispers that he's fit and trim under that cloak, and the round beach ball shape is actually a sack of gold coins he keeps tied around his waist for safe keeping.
If asked about it, he simply laughs and pats his belly before changing the subject.
He doesn't talk about his past, his family (that some speculate are actually reptilian, despite what his name suggests), or even where he sleeps at night, hidden away in the swamps. He only talks business, or shares an off-colour joke followed by a hardy guffaw. Overall, he's a good natured fellow.
Just don't try to touch his belly.

Grey's Anatomy Caption Contest XLVSteve Marsi at . Comments
There was no new episode of Grey's Anatomy on last week, but that doesn't mean that the Caption Contest took a week off.
As usual, our weekly Caption Contest (XLV) produced its share of great replies. A screen capture from "Where the Boys Are" was pretty much guaranteed to do that. We received a number of terrific entries, but in the end, we had to go with the one submitted by SheStoleMyMcLife.
Congratulations! The winning caption appears beneath the image. Scroll down the page to glance through the complete list of candidates. Good luck again this week, and thanks to you all for participating in this contest - and making us the top Grey's Anatomy site online.
This week's Caption Contest image:
"I swear, if one of you two idiots doesn't tell me, I'm going to bang your heads against a rock and make it look like an accident."

Bad service
Really nice guys, completed the work on my car and explained all work done. Would recommend to all.
Excellent and swift service. Thank you.
Got car MOT'd and serviced by Sloane Services. It was more expensive than the online quote, but that was because it needed two new shocks and two tyres, and fitting the shocks was a lot more labour. So it was good value, and it was done to time and they were a pleasure to deal with.
Helpful at providing advice!
Professional and friendly approch. Work properly done in really a short time. Highly recommented.
Good value for money. Paul was very friendly and he fixed my car In no time. Very nice and satisfactory experiance. I Will recommend to everybody who want good service. Thanks Paul, just in time to organise my trip.
Friendly and efficient service, wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
Paul was really helpful and had the fan and re-wiring done within a couple of hours and I picked my car up the same day. They also cleaned it for me which was an added bonus and greatly appreciated! Im sticking with this garage from now on!
Like most car owners, I have my preferred garage but tried Paul and his team when my usual place couldn't urgently schedule a repair to pass an MOT. Paul took the car in the next day, talked me through the whole process, gave me options and completed an excellent job exactly when he said he would. Would highly recommend.
Friendly garage, great service. Would definitely go back!
We had a very very good experience with this garage. Gary is an affable person, welcoming, efficient, fast. We received a very good price and they carried out the full service in some two hours. Very competitive rates compared to other garages.
Can't recommend this garage highly enough manager was a top bloke really helpful and got my air con blowing cold again also the good thing about it is it's right next to portobello road so while works is carried out you can have a look about instead of just sitting about waiting .
Car was picked up on time from my house and was dropped off at my work in time for me to drive home, paid exactly what the quote was and they even went the extra mile and replaced a bulb that had blown and also checked tyre pressures and fluid levels without any extra charges. Will definitely be using this garage again!!! Thank u !!
Fantastic garage. Very close to me and based in Notting Hill, this little garage was a right find. They opened on a Saturday just to do this job, the place was immaculate. Gary said that the car would take an hour for the service and it took exactly that, while it was being done I had a wander around Portobello and then sat in the waiting room using the wifi provided. He even did a free diagnostic check on my car. When I asked about other things I wanted do e on the car he had relevant model specific pictures on his laptop and talked me through the choices and costs. Very impressed, nice guy, lots to do while you're waiting, very knowledgable and fast service - already booked another job in with him.
Excellent work from Gary at M&G. Dropped car of this morning at 8.30am, MOT was done and the car was delivered back to my home by 11am - superb.
It was fast and handy, the part arrived 2 working days later and i got it fixed within minutes at the time convenient for myself
Absolutely fantastic service! Very quickly identified that a BMW mechanic wrongly stated that the head gasket was gone. They then repaired my car in under 2 hours (including fixing my heater which I was told needed a new heater matrix). I will be highly recommending Vale Car Centre to others.
Very accommodating, service was carried out in time no issues to report on. Very friendly garage.
5 reviews
Very happy with the service. The mechanic who helped me out was Billy and he was very helpful with everything. The garage was welcoming and even did some extra work I needed which bumped up the original quote price a bit but was still very fair. Overall I would highly recommend this garage.
Absolutely amazing service and quality of the finished product. My car had far more damage than anticipated, however Brooklands Motor Body Shop kept the price as low as possible, which I'm so thankful for. They even picked my car and dropped it off for me. This indicates a top service. The car looks as good as new. I would highly recommend this garage to anyone looking for both accident repair and any car body work done. Very happy! Would definitely come back to them again. Thank you
You get what you pay for, its not cheap but Smith & Hunter aim to please. Post-work final adjustments offered at no extra cost. The workmanship overall is superb, the paint blending is done extremely well.
Sloane Services was excellent. A father and son team who are knowledgeable and honest. They got me a good quote on body repair and sorted out all the mechanical problems. Even told me, without charge, that I did not need expensive repairs on items I had requested investigation.
The cost of servicing, MOT and repairs differ across the country and Accident Repairs is not any different. Labour rates will be higher or lower depending on where in the country you are.

Drew Belz
• Age: 24
• Hometown: Asheville, N.C.
• College: Covenant College
• Marital Status: Single
• Occupation: Co-owner Fancy Rhino
Isaiah Smallman
• Age: 23
• Hometown: Baltimore, Md.
• College: Covenant College
• Wife: Kelly
• Occupation: Co-owner Fancy Rhino
Nothing sums up what Fancy Rhino is all about better than "Build Me A World," the full-length documentary about a year at Howard High School that the production company created just a year into its existence.
For co-owners and cousins Drew Belz and Isaiah Smallman, the 90-minute film, which looked at the difficulties faced by a primarily black inner-city school, represents exactly the kind of projects they want to tackle.
"I am so glad we get to be here and tell the Howard story," Belz said.
The movie premiered Aug. 17 at The Tivoli Theatre and since then has been screened nine times in town and has been entered in about 20 film festivals, according to Smallman.
The two-year-old company and its now nine employees have also done music videos, local and national advertisements and marketing and training videos. They are currently creating a national ad for the new Samsung Galaxy Note II and the Samsung tablet.
About half of Fancy Rhino's current workload is tied to local businesses, Belz said. But both said that what they most enjoy making are videos that can have an impact on the quality of life in Chattanooga. Both agree they could have created their business in another city, but they're committed to being a part of and challenged by the renaissance that Chattanooga continues to undergo.
What they appreciate about the city is a real sense that people want to identify the issues and do something about changing them, Smallman said.
"There are things about Chattanooga that we love and things that we don't and we want to try to change the things that we don't and here you can see the results," he said.
Both graduates of Covenant College, the two met at family gatherings over the years, but Belz, the younger of the pair, said he did not follow his cousin to Covenant. Rather it was a mutual interest in literature and film that brought both to the Lookout Mountain school, where they paired up to create a few films, both for fun and at the request of the school.
They had a such good working relationship, Smallman sent Belz an email predicting that they would one day work together professionally. His prediction came true about six months later.
In October 2010, they made the commitment to start their own company and started Fancy Rhino out of Smallman's apartment. The name came out of a brainstorming session with the "Rhino" meant to represent the power inherent in every business and its story, Smallman said. "Fancy" represents the part of their job that finds a story "and puts a tuxedo on it or dress it up," he said.
With name in hand in May 2010, they decided they could benefit from being a part of the Lamp Post Group's business incubator -- which helps new companies get off the ground -- and moved the operation into Lamp Post's offices in the old Loveman's building on Market Street. Earlier this month, Fancy Rhino moved into its own office space across the hall from Lamp Post.
Being a part of the incubator helped Fancy Rhino in numerous ways, both said. In addition to providing an office space, Lamp Post can provide capital, advice, contacts and a sense of security, they said.
"It's a lot more than shared space," Belz said.
"Being a door down from [Lamp Post co-founder and partner] Ted Alling is very helpful," Smallman said. "We probably doubled the rate of growth because of Lamp Post. It's like living with your parents. They are not going to clean up your crap, but they are not going to let you drown either."
Alling said Belz and Smallman represent precisely the kind of company Lamp Post wants to help.
"They are LA [Los Angeles] talent in Chattanooga and we are behind the scenes doing back office type things for them and letting them be creative and shine," he says.
Smallman said the biggest lesson learned from their mentors at Lamp Post was to aim higher than you think you can and to always do your best work. The Howard film, for example, was originally to be a 10-minute documentary, Belz said.
"We realized it was bigger than that," he said.
Making the decision to make a full-length documentary meant committing staff, resources and time to something that took a year. It was an important job, Belz and Smallman said, not only prove to themselves that it could be done but because the project demanded it.
That kind of commitment is the way they try to approach each project, Smallman said.
Belz said that, while Chattanooga's arts community is making great strides, it is only scratching the surface when it comes to arts and businesses working together.
"The idea that beauty can create business is happening but slowly," he said. "We are seeing the payoff."
When it truly happens, both Belz and Smallman said they want to be there and to be a part of it.
"Chattanooga has an incredible wealth of opportunity," Smallman said. "The possibilities are endless and there are very few places in the world where that is as true as it is here."

Inovio Pharmaceuticals' Partner ChronTech Initiates Phase II Clinical Trial of Hepatitis C Virus DNA Vaccine Using Inovio's Electroporation Delivery Technology
In Phase I trial 83% of patients showed undetectable hepatitis C virus levels
Mar 14, 2011, 04:00 ET
BLUE BELL, Pa., March 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE Amex: INO), a leader in the development of therapeutic and preventive vaccines against cancers and infectious diseases, announced today that its partner, ChronTech Pharma AB (formerly Tripep AB), has initiated a Phase IIb clinical study of its ChronVac-C® DNA vaccine for hepatitis C virus (HCV), delivered by Inovio's proprietary electroporation DNA vaccine delivery technology, in combination with standard of care.
In a Phase I clinical trial of ChronVac-C using Inovio's MedPulser® electroporation device the therapy resulted in a robust increase in T-cell immune responses against HCV and was safe and well-tolerated. Post-study observation of subjects who completed the protocol and then entered into standard of care (SOC) treatment using interferon and ribavirin showed a complete and rapid viral response (four weeks) in 70% of those participants (5 of 7 patients). More significantly, 83% of the participants (5 of 6 patients) who were monitored for an extended period of time, continued to be free of the virus six months after they completed SOC. SOC treatment alone usually results in about 40-50% of patients reaching undetectable virus levels after six months of treatment.
This Phase II follow-on trial is an open-label, single-dose, randomized trial of 32 patients to further explore the effect of the ChronVac-C® DNA vaccine administered by Inovio's MedPulser® electroporation delivery device. The therapy will be given two times, with four weeks in between, followed by SOC treatment after the final vaccine dose in treatment-naïve chronic HCV infected genotype-1 subjects. This trial will assess the level of immune responses, levels of HCV viral load, and further assess the response to the delivery technology. Twenty patients will receive ChronVac-C® vaccine delivered with Inovio's electroporation device; the 12-patient comparison group will receive standard-of-care treatment alone. The study has received approval from the Swedish Medical Products Agency and local ethical committee.
"If we can repeat the Phase I results in this phase IIb study there is certainly a possibility that vaccination with ChronVac-C® before drug therapy could become a part of the standard of care therapy for patients with chronic hepatitis C-virus infection. In particular, we hope that vaccination with this novel therapy will result in a considerable shortening of the duration of interferon and ribavirin treatment," said Anders Vahlne, CEO of ChronTech Pharma AB.
Dr. J. Joseph Kim, Inovio's president and CEO, said: "We are encouraged by the phase I results showing the improved cure rate in patients who received the HCV vaccine followed by a SOC drug therapy. Any improvement to the HCV standard of care response rates would be well-received by HCV patients and practitioners. We are pleased to collaborate in this advancement of ChronVac-C®, using Inovio's innovative delivery technology, into Phase II."
About Hepatitis C Virus
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is the most common chronic blood borne infection in the United States, where approximately 3.5 million persons have been chronically infected. Worldwide, about 300 million people have been infected with HCV. Based on current statistics for hepatitis C, it is estimated that 8,000 to 10,000 people die each year from chronic liver disease caused by this condition. Chronic HCV infection is the leading indication for liver transplants in the United States. Total health costs associated with hepatitis C virus in the U.S. are estimated at more than $15 billion per year. No vaccine for HCV is currently available.
About Inovio's Electroporation-Based Delivery Technology
Inovio's electroporation-based DNA delivery systems can increase the cellular uptake of an agent by 1,000 times or more. When used to deliver DNA vaccines, Inovio's systems can increase levels of gene expression (i.e. production of the coded protein) and immune responses by 100 times or more compared to plasmid DNA delivered without other delivery enhancements. Inovio has recently reported best-in-class immune responses with DNA vaccines for cervical dysplasias/cancers and HIV. Inovio has also shown the safety and tolerability of its electroporation devices in many hundreds of patients and continues to advance device innovations to further enhance the utility of these devices for mass vaccinations.
About Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Chief: Nashua's uptick in crime is bafflingBy KIMBERLY HOUGHTON
Union Leader Correspondent
August 29. 2013 9:54AM
NASHUA — Some people have called it the summer of deaths in the Gate City, and while Police Chief John Seusing doesn't have an explanation for the unusual crime activity in the past few months, he is sure of one thing.
"Historically, Nashua has been, and absolutely will continue to be, a safe place to live," Seusing told the New Hampshire Union Leader this week.
In 2012, there was one homicide in the Gate City. So far this year, there have been five confirmed homicides in Nashua, in addition to 17 armed robberies.
Overall, there were nine dead bodies found in the city in less than six weeks this summer.
"When you look at it altogether, it can be alarming," he said. "Looking at all of these events, each one is certainly significant."
When Seusing was asked to identify a reason for the recent uptick in crime, he said, "I have no answer."
There are often highs and lows when it comes to crime in Nashua or other communities, he said, explaining this is obviously a peak for the city — one that he cannot explain.
Seusing is quick to reassure the public that his detective bureau is adequately and exceptionally handling its heavy case load, adding many of his detectives spend more time at work than they do at home.
Preventing some of these crimes from happening is also a top priority for the Nashua Police Department, and it is a job that isn't taken lightly, he said.
The police force has an authorized strength of 179 police officers, however there are never 179 officers working the streets because several of them are either in field training or participating in the police academy, he said.
"Certainly, we would be better off if we were at full working staff," said Seusing, meaning it would be ideal if he could have 179 officers on the streets and extra officers in training. "We do need to increase that number."
The Nashua Police Commission is reviewing an updated workload assessment that was recently completed, which Seusing believes will justify the need to hire additional police officers.
"Clearly, that number exceeds the 179," said Seusing, declining to quote a specific number of officers he would like to add to the force. Even if the commission approves a larger authorized force, the Board of Aldermen would have the final say since it adopts the budget.
Seusing is optimistic that he will receive approval for more manpower during the next budget cycle. A few months ago, city officials provided Seusing with funds to increase his authorized strength from 177 officers to 179.
"This new workload assessment shows that we need even more officers," he said. "… We have a community here that is pretty concerned."
Perhaps the most shocking crime this summer was the double homicide of an elderly couple, William and Eleanor Grant of 37 Newbury St. Last week, the Attorney General's Office announced that the Grants' neighbor, Shawn P. Burne, was likely responsible for their murders, however he has since committed suicide.
Neighbors were fearful in their own homes and the public was unsettled by the deadly stabbings, according to Seusing, who said his department encouraged the Attorney General's Office to release information about the man likely responsible in an effort to alleviate some of the concerns from citizens.
In addition to the murders of William and Eleanor Grant, other homicides in Nashua this year include: the death of Mary Danboise, who was killed in a murder/suicide by her now dead husband, Reginald Danboise, a local dentist; Judith Rolfe, who was allegedly killed at the hands of her brother, Duane Rolfe; and Devon Gould, a 2-year old boy who was allegedly beaten to death by his mother, Unique Gould.
While these are five confirmed homicides, there are two other suspicious deaths that are still being investigated in Nashua, including the unusual fire and explosion that killed Alfred Demeusy of 7 Carlisle Road, and the death of Christina Hill, 52, of Chestnut Street. Her manner and cause of death still have not been released.
"Of course it is a red flag when our homicide rate has increased at this significance. You have to look at each case, and they are completely unrelated," said Seusing, noting this is the first time in his career where he has seen this much criminal activity in the city.
One of the implications, he said, is that many cases are placed on the back burner while investigators focus their attention on more pressing and urgent crimes that take priority, such as homicides.
"That is very difficult, but unfortunately we have no choice in the matter recently," he said.
It is important to note that although there have been 17 armed robberies so far this year, the chief said 10 arrests have been made for similar crimes in that same time frame.
"Our officers are investigating these cases thoroughly and bringing them to justice," Seusing email@example.com

WASHINGTON (AP) — One of the nation's oldest museums, known for its daring contemporary art exhibitions next to the White House and its financial troubles, is being taken over by two larger institutions and will soon close for renovations.
Under an agreement signed Thursday, the long-struggling Corcoran Gallery of Art and its College of Art and Design will be taken over by George Washington University and the federally funded National Gallery of Art.
The three sides agreed the Corcoran will close around Oct. 1 for an undetermined amount of time and undergo renovations. When it reopens, it will offer free admission like the National Gallery's other buildings on the National Mall.
The takeover agreement brings an end to years of uncertainty for the Corcoran. At one point its board considered selling the historic Beaux-Arts building that needs at least $100 million in renovations. Last year, the museum pursued a partnership with the University of Maryland that fell apart.
Peggy Loar, the Corcoran's interim director and president, said the new arrangement saves the collection and the museum-based college.
"I think there's a euphoria that we have a wonderful solution here," she said. "The one thing we need to work at is to maintain that synergy between the collections and curators along with the faculty and the students."
The bulk of the Corcoran's 17,000 artworks will be brought into the National Gallery's collection, keeping them available to the public. National Gallery Director Earl A. Powell III said the Corcoran's American and modern art collections complement and enhance the existing holdings.
"You put the two together and you get one of the greatest, if not the greatest, collection of that art in this country," he said.
While the Corcoran name will be preserved, the museum will have less than half its current gallery space and more space devoted to the art school.
"Face it: the Corcoran isn't going to be the old Corcoran. It is going to be the new National Gallery," Powell said. "I think we will hope to kind of push edges here."
Artworks that may duplicate current holdings will be distributed to other museums with a preference to those in Washington. But all sides agreed no artworks will be sold.
"The reason it is such a no-no to sell collections is where do you stop?" Loar said. "We wouldn't have a collection left."
George Washington University will take on the bulk of the financial obligations for renovating the building, and the National Gallery will pay for all exhibition programs and museum operations.
A first phase of renovations is expected to cost $25 million, university officials said. Initial costs will be covered by $35 million transferred from the Corcoran to the university and the sale of a separate Corcoran building. The university will raise funds for further renovations, said George Washington President Steven Knapp.
The Corcoran College, which enrolls about 450 students this year and expects 580 next year, will be gradually integrated into the university. Some programs could be merged with existing arts programs or brought under the Corcoran College umbrella, Knapp said.
"It will make our university more of a hub for the arts," he said.
The Corcoran was founded in 1869 with a mission dedicated to art and "encouraging American genius." At one time, William Wilson Corcoran also sat on George Washington University's board. Now the school will help protect his legacy.
"I think it's an opportunity for our nation's capital frankly," Knapp said, "because it enables us to maintain the Corcoran legacy and the Corcoran collections that might otherwise have been dispersed."
