Drilling Program Will Integrate Important New Findings
Drilling Program Will Integrate Important New Findings
SKIPPACK, PA--(Marketwired - Mar 25, 2014) - North Bay Resources Inc. (OTCQB: NBRI) ("North Bay" or the "Company") is pleased to report that the gravity survey initiated in late January at the Ruby Mine in Sierra County, California has been completed.
The gravity survey was conducted by Magee Geophysical Services, with the assistance of Cranmer Engineering, Sierra Surveying, Inc., and Wright Geophysics.
Among its important findings, the survey shows:
Pending confirmation by drilling, the survey demonstrates that channels buried at least as deep as 350 feet can be readily detected with gravity, although the exact elevation to the bottom of the channel cannot be determined with this method alone. The application provides a relatively inexpensive method for "prospecting" areas of the Ruby property where past mining or drilling is absent. This new information is being used by our geological team to provide more exact coordinates for drill placement at the various potential mining targets recently identified and immediately accessible within the Ruby Adit.
The Company also reports that the installation of 2,000 feet of new 4" diameter steel pipe to upgrade our compressed air capacity is set for completion today. As previously announced in a Company press release dated March 7, 2014, the installation of this new airline was a crucial step required to prepare and support an effective drilling program, as it was essential to increase our compressed air capacity to run the drill and other equipment without depriving other work areas in the mine of this vital energy source. Following completion of the pipe installation by the end of today, we expect drilling to begin tomorrow.
In the coming days we will confirm that drilling has begun, and we will provide a more in-depth discussion about the drilling targets at that time.
Mr. C. Gary Clifton, P.Geo., is the Company's independent consulting geologist for the Ruby Gold Project. Mr. Clifton is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, and has reviewed this press release for technical accuracy.
About The Ruby Gold Project
The Ruby Mine, a/k/a the Ruby Gold Project, is a fully-permitted underground placer and lode mine located near Downieville in Sierra County, California that is known to have produced over 350,000 ounces of gold since the 1850's, and which is considered to be part of the northern extension of the historic Mother Lode system. The Ruby Property covers approximately 1,755 acres, only a small portion of which has been explored to date. The property consists of the subsurface mineral rights of two patented claims totaling approximately 435 acres and 30 unpatented claims containing approximately 1,320 acres. The equipment, fixed assets, and infrastructure in place include a 1,000 yard per day placer wash plant, 50-ton per day quartz mill, 6,000 feet of tracked haulage, and related support equipment needed for underground mining operations. The property also features an excellent system of roads, is accessible via paved highway from Reno or Sacramento, has abundant water and timber available for mining purposes, and has PG&E power available on-site.

Turtle Beach by Rex Resorts - Reader Reports & Opinion
Guest Report
Pauline Marshall from U.K. visited in January 2006 and awarded
I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Maybe I'm not fussy but the accommodation had everything I needed and was comfortable. The food was great with good choice and plenty of it! You could return for 'seconds' as many times as you wanted and there was a great supply of fresh fruit at all meal times. (Fresh as in cut up and prepared in front of you.)
The great thing about this hotel is that it really is right on the beach, and you can be there in minutes. Geographically it is very well situated. Being on the Caribbean coast, the water is warm and generally calm, a marked contrast to the rocky Atlantic coast with its cold rollers. The prevailing wind brings rain in from the Atlantic which it then drops on the rainforest high in the middle of the island. By the time the clouds get to Turtle Beach they have more or less disappeared. However, I seem to have been lucky as I did hear from another guest that the week before I arrived it was colder and wet and after I left there were great storms. During one storm a dead turtle was washed up on the beach where it then lay rotting for days. Evidently the stench was shocking but I think this situation was unusual.
Although too early in the season really to see turtles we did have one young female come up the beach one night. We were told to watch silently and to not use flash photography but unfortunately some people couldn't resist using their cameras. Whether it was this that put her off or, as someone suggested she was too young to be laying eggs and was just on a practice run we don't know but she went back to sea sooner than expected.
I was travelling on my own but met other people on trips and at meal times. I was also able to take the sailing dinghy and kayak out, although the staff did seem to take a bit of persuasion to actually let me do that, and wouldn't let them out at the slightest sign of a swell. Quite understandable when they know local conditions so much better than the visitors. The boats were built for safety rather than excitement but still fulfilled the purpose of providing an enjoyable leisure activity.
The pool was very much a recreational pool but very pleasant - and clean.
I have only two reservations. Firstly, I bought the holiday on a BA offer which included flights and accommodation only. Although the starting price was very reasonable, by the time the single person supplement was added and then the meals as well, it all added up.
Secondly, we were told it was a safe island but I had a couple of experiences that, although no harm was done, warned me to be careful and I would advise caution. The hotel and beach are guarded full time by security men so while you're in the area of the hotel you are in danger of no more than locals trying to sell you a range of crafts and services.
There was a good number and range of organised trips including round the island tours, including a walk in the rainforest, a trip to Trinidad and boat trips to wonderful coral reefs.
Yes, I would go again!

Hi there. After having read some of the reviews on this site we (=2 adults + two big kids) were concerned what we might find we we got to the hotel. No need. The hotel is in a really beautiful spot and well located for trips in all directions (top tip - hire a car - it saves you loads of money compared with the tours).
The hotel staff are really friendly and the rooms (ours were at ground floor so straight onto beach from patio)were big and mostly fine. Sure the bathrooms all need a good refurb and will win no prizes, but that was no big deal. Some things could have been improved. We had to politely complain about a couple of bathroom problems in our two weeks. But the maintenance guys were quick to sort things out - and like nearly everyone else we met on the island - they were a pleasure to chat with. My only other concern would be that my son got a sickness bug from the swimming pool - so don't swallow the water. If fact you're better off in the sea which is fantastic. But these were not big issues in an otherwise brilliant holiday. Although we were not all-inclusive, we ate in the hotel quite a few times. And the food was very good - better than I was expecting, and plenty of it.
If you're the fussy type then you probably will find plenty to put you off. But if you know how to smile, have a good time and chill with the locals then you can't really go wrong. And Tobago is completely fab.

Paul E from U.K. visited in November 2005 and awarded
Having just returned from Turtle beach i can say that it was a pleasure to be home.
The staff have a HUGE morale problem, they seem unhappy, surly, unfriendly and disrespectful.
Tobago itself was incredible. Wild, picturesque, unspoilt, peaceful.... other than the attention paid to my girlfriend which was quite unexpectedly aggressive.
Turtle beach however...
Room left uncleaned, although the bed was made, no clean towels despite 3 requests, tv didn't work, being laughed AT by the receptionist ( when asking if he had any further news on our already severly delayed flight), snotty maitre dit, dismissive table service, security who seemed to do absolutley nothing to deter beach vendors and hawkers.... the list goes on.
In my experience these problems are top down...so i guess we should be asking the manager (who is not even the licencee of the premises-the previous manager still holds the licence) why the problems...
Well.. i actually asked the manager for an appointment to tell him how unhappy we were.... and he failed to show.
In truth a few of the staff were cool, friendly, funny, talkative and made the holiday fun, but they really were the minority.
As context to this report i am a 31 year old music producer, have west indian friends and colleagues and understand the culture present here. It was pretty dire at turtle beach.
You know the food was actually pretty good...the one plus.....
although we ate at the Seahorse Inn loads..... it's awesome.

Have just returned home after a 10 night stay at the turtle beach hotel,i don't want to get into a debate as to how good or not good this hotel is, my concern is how safe is this beach. on our first night the security guard warned my husband and myself about letting our two children go unsupervised as he said it was a very dangerous beach, with very strong undercurrants , a very steep shelve and large waves [i must add that our children are a strapping 6 foot 14 year old and my daughter 19 although she is small for her age and does look i asked the security guard as to why there were no danger signs if the waters were not good for bathing, his reply was that it was bad for tourism. we travelled with thomas cook holidays and at reps meeting the following morning another family brought up there concerns over the safety of the beach, our rep advised us that if we wanted a safe bathing beach we should take a taxi to pigeon point where the water is suitable for bathing.on wednesday 19th oct. we along with several others discovered just how dangerous this beach is, my husband, son and daughter were walking along the waters edge [the sea was calm at the when without warning a large wave came in it knocked my husband off his feet, my daughter was carried backwards into the sea and my son was carried upwards by the wave[this wave was approx.10-12 feet my son then came crashing down on top of his sister, they were both very traumatised and my daughter was treated in hospital for a dislocated shoulder. we also learned that three other hotel guests suffered injuries that day , a lady who twisted her knee, a man with cuts and briuses to his arm, and another male who sprained his wrist. locals told us that their had been nothing unusual about the sea conditions that day. allthough on sunday16th and monday17th we were told that the sea was rougher than usual. has anybody else who has stayed at this hotel any comments about the safety of this beach? many thanks the oneil family

I stayed at the Rex Turtle Beach for the second time in the last 2 years,first time for my honeymoon (complete with my 2 teenage kids from my previous) and again this year - third stay booked for next year - must be a glutton for punishment.
I have read all the reviews and agree with many of the comments, yes the Rex Turtle is in need of a refurb, BUT, having stayed at many hotels 4star plus hotels all in various corners of the globe, I cant help but keep returning. There are many reasons - excellent value for money especially the AI, good food, rooms opening direct onto an unspoilt beach and much more... You must go and hire a car and go around the island, driving is a sinch and there are some really beautiful spots to explore. I have never felt in any way unsafe in Tobago and neither have my children.
My kids, aged 15 and 13, boy and girl, cant get enough of Tobago. Both times we have visited have been quiet, just before the main school holidays in late June. Watched many turtles laying their eggs right in front of our bedroom.
I loved reading the comments about Engine Bobb, the local on the beach selling his calabash and Scoutie from the Dive shop - does he ever stop singing? They are 2 great characters,were fantastic with the kids who must mention him weekly ever since our return home, and weve spent many an hour putting the worlds to right with Engine. At first I was a bit dubious, but I neednt have worried, Engine and Scoutie took both of them off for the day to town and Sunday School - to return them both safely after having a great time. It was wonderful to see 2 different cultures and backgrounds getting on so well, it has taught my kids a lot. If you are reading this Engine - yes your 'little white English friend' Tom, will be back in July 2006.

Returning from a warm, sunny Florida vacation, I took some time to reflect on my last couple of weeks. One of my more interesting reflections I had was about a particular, unexpected food choice I made while in Seaside, Florida. Just for the record – I had never been to Seaside, Florida and honestly didn't know what to expect. It was one of those "let's go check out this place and see what it's like" type of vacation. What I found was an upscale vacation haven. A beautiful beach, a colossal number of bicycles for transportation (because the roads were too narrow for easy car travel), funky cottages with a menagerie of architecture and colors, quaint stores and, of course, good food! The food choices aligned themselves to the upscale environment.
On the first night we arrived, I took one look at the menu of a food stand and immediately felt a bit rebellious and rejected all of the "grass fed, hormone free, family farmed, antibiotic free" meat choices. You see, I know the way we raise animals on our farm and I know it results in safe, healthy and nutritious meat. And I also know our pork is antibiotic-free, hormone-free, humanely raised, and from a family farm – even though it is not marketed that way. However . . . on the second day, I decided to step outside my boundaries and celebrate food choices. I was going to choose a food that I would not normally order. . . So, here goes my confession . . (Sigh . . .)
I ordered myself a "GH, HH, HF, HR, AF, FF hot dog!" (that's a grass-fed, heritage hog, hormone-free, humanely raised, antibiotic-free, family farm hot dog).
What led up to this decision?
Well, being this was my first trip to Seaside, Florida, I picked up the city's newsletter, The Seaside Times, to find out what made this city tick. And alas, I found an article that talked about Wild Bill's Beach Dogs located about 4 blocks from our cottage. The article stated the hot dogs are purchased from a company called "Let's Be Frank." According to the newsletter, the company "supports the ever-shrinking group of family farms and ranchers committed to raising their animals in a humane, conscientious, and healthy manner." (yes, this statement probably warrants a blog on it's own – maybe later.) In addition, Emeril Lagasse ate these wonderful hot dogs and loved them! Curiosity got the best of me and I had to try one.
Yes . . . I ordered myself a "Mutt Dog," which is a combination of pork and beef. And, yes, the menu states it is grass-fed beef, heritage hog, hormone-free, humanely raised, antibiotic-free and from a family farm. Imagine, all of that in one hot dog!
So, what did I think?
They were okay. I thought they tasted a little "gamey" but that may have been from some of the spices used. I did think a lot about what I was eating and how this hot dog was making certain consumers feel better about eating it. It just reinforced my conviction that we, as farmers, need to connect with consumers. The hot dog cost me $5.25, which was not a bad price compared to other menu items. Would I order it again? Probably not. But for that day, I was just going to celebrate food choices. We can choose what we want to eat and feed our families and that is definitely something we need to protect!
If you are interested in what I experienced and thought about Seaside, Florida, read my blog post "10 Interesting Things I Learned about Seaside, Florida." It was quite interesting! In the meantime, let's celebrate and protect food choices!

Elevate is our programme of work with predominantly disengaged young people, whether that means they are part of the Youth Offending Team, Youth Services, NEET or part of a youth service programme to support them in finding their way. With ELEVATE we have a range of different programmes and experiences for young people.
Most recently we explored Fighting and Violence in their lives as the theme from which to explore movement and dance. Next year we will be exploring Depression and Mental Health challenges. However in 2013, on our Interreg project, we just explored movement in an abstract and non-thematic way, with incredible results. All the research we explore for our LEAP programme comes in to our ELEVATE programme, and we are always looking for the easiest process through which disengaged young people are able to move and explore their bodies through their own intrinsic exploration.

Ahwahnee Hills Loop is a 2.1 mile lightly trafficked loop trail located near Ahwahnee, California that features a lake and is good for all skill levels. The trail offers a number of activity options and is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.
dogs on leash
wheelchair friendly
kid friendly
horseback riding
nature trips
trail running
wild flowers
I cannot review as it is closed on Tuesdays (also Mondays, can't remember if it is open or closed on Sundays).
It was a great trail. Easy for my 6 year old to handle. I wouldn't bring my dog only because I could see him getting full of stickers.
Very easy trail with pedestrian and horse routes. We only made it maybe 3/4 of a mile before turning back because stickers kept getting in my dog's paws, though. It was quite pretty with plenty of places to sit and have a picnic. If I lived in the area I'd definitely make more use of it! Just without the pup.
This is a nice regional park near Ahwahnee Calif. Though it is listed as wheelchair friendly, only a portion of the loop is ADA compliant. There is handicap parking at the main parking area and near the lake. The south portion of the loop is mostly open meadow with some beautiful old oak trees, and mostly flat terrain. On the north portion there is some climbing, but most people can easily handle it. At the upper end there are several view points with nice views of the valley. My wife and I like to do this trail when we feel like an easy, laid back hike that doesn't require a long drive to other, more senic trails in the area.

Submission Timeline
Pre Award Main Page
For questions and help, please contact:
Sarah Love,
Grants & Contracts Director
Email: email@example.com
Timeline for Proposal Submission
For most proposals, it is a good idea to notify us at least 4-6 weeks in advance. The actual science development of the project can take anywhere from 3 weeks (very rare to 1 year or more, depending on the complexity of the project).
- If your project has two or less subcontracts, 6 weeks is the preferred timeline. Subcontractors must have the signoff of their institution for their budgets and many of those institutions require 2 weeks just to obtain all the signatures. They also need time to prepare the budgets and pull together all the paperwork associated with the application.
- For NIH grants, if you expect that your grant proposal will exceed $500,000 direct costs in any one year, you should allow at least 8 weeks. You must obtain permission of the funding institute to submit the grant.
- If you are preparing a program project grant or any very large multi-institutional proposals, you should allow between 3 and 12 (or more) months.

The red- tapism is not allowed as the files are being cleared before they gather dust. The social welfare projects are doing well - Kanyasri, and Yubasri are the two important projects which can make the poor and people below poverty line happier. The CPI(M) theorised everything and in reality nearly nothing has been done except politicisation and nepotism. A few faces were stealing all the limelight.
Anilayan and Bimanayan were paralleled with the mistakes committed by Buddhadev Bhattacharya, who apologised again and again to an extent of ridicule. Decentralisation was the excuse for making party units all over the state during the previous regime. Now those half educated party hooligans are a little silent and subdued. Some Trinamool party supporters in the locality may do excess but still they are not in a position to politicise and theorise everything: 'All are equal, but some are more equal' as it was practised by the party Harmads of the previous era.
In Agriculture, in industry, in the patronisation of the artists and filmstars, in provision of Health, Drinking Water, or development of Roads, supply of Electricity - there is the acceleration of the process. The first Left Front Government showed some such pro-popular urges and took some steps for decentralisation of power in the rural areas. Now the same thing occurs with Mamata Banerjee in power for three years.
The great success comes from the Hills. The earlier Chief Minister lost courage of facing the hill problems. The continuous strikes in the Hills and slogan for a separate state became a daily event. Mamata Banerjee achieved a spectacular success in restoring peace and maintaining integrity at the same time. The CPI(M) depended solely on Subhas Gissing. Here the Chief Minister herself personally faced the ordeal and won laurels as the more successful Chief Minister compared to her earlier counterparts.
The second and more spectacular area of success is the restoration of peace in Junglemahal, where the Maoist activities are curbed by providing the basic amenities to the poorest of the poor. Many schools and colleges are opened. Howrah is now a Satellite City. At one time it was merely the oldest 'Coolie Town', the 'City of Concrete'.
In 3349 village panchayats, 16 thousand kilometers of road is going to be built. Housing is a problem in West Bengal. Sincere efforts are done through HIDCO while in the previous years of the Left Front government only party associates have enjoyed all the benefits. Kandi, Ghatal and Damodar Masterplan are going to start soon along with the works for Keleghai and Kapaleshwari Projects. In Rangamati, Dwarakeswar and Gandheswari projects will also start.
In 2013-14 sales tax is collected to the amount of Rs. 39 thousand crores, which is nearly double the earlier times. 24 laks of farmers have been distributed Kisan Credit Cards over the last three years. Once Benoy Chowdhury remarked, "The Left Front Government has turned to the government of the contractors." This has been changed in the last three years under the capable leadership of Mamata Banerjee.
One or two stray incidents such as of Park Street or in schools and colleges, cannot belittle all the achievements of the Trinamool Government. These are the reasons why the Trinamool has grabbed 34 seats in the recent Lok Sabha elections.
Just two words - Peace and Progress, mesmerized the voters all over West Bengal. A women university in every district or Engineering institutes in the Hills and Junglemahal, Hospitals in the rural areas are all accommodated in the development projects of Mamata Banerjee Government without the least hesitation.
There has been lots of discussion about Mamata's vision and her penchant for action. The concomitant empowering of bureaucracy, cutting the red tape, inducting professionalism and inculcating a sense of responsibility within the government have all been commented upon and will presumably be implemented. After the abounding stasis of the previous administration, all this will be refreshing in this generalized breathless euphoria, it would seem churlish to even question whether there would be any structural changes.
The media with its irritating excitability will proclaim the arrival of 'valo din'. The real problems come in with the age old ideas that Trinamool means violence, bloodshed and hooliganism. In the seventies, examination became a farce. Even today the Leftists cite references to those days. At that time, it was a Congress period and not a Trinamool regime. But the same crocodile has been shown over the years.
Today the Leftists have been wiped out from the state for all their false promises and stunts of so-called theories to make America as a villain for everything. When BJP is making its dent in new vote banks of the state, the Trinamool has at least curbed the wings of BJP nearly in all places except in a very few ones. Communalism as a political force has been kept in check by Mamata Government. Still doubts have been expressed in some academic quarters that the Trinamool hooliganism will continue more now, but this is a baseless charge.
The way the CPI(M) government in the state politicised the education system, this violence is expected if some changes are to be brought. The student wing of Trinamool is following the footsteps of the SFI leaders in academic institutions. Fears about 'Fascism' loom large as the Trinamool party is guided by one person both in politics and administration.
The essential contradiction between the liberal and progressive legislative and judicial framework and profits are bound to come to a head. Unlike Western democracies, the stratification in our society is too vast for it to be managed smoothly. It is also true that we are not yet prosperous enough to buy our way out of these contradictions.
Fascism conjures up all kinds of images, which in their specificities will possibly not materialise. There will not be any official racism or communalism. The storm troopers will do their vandalism and intimidation while the administration treats them with kid gloves. After failing to get a financial rescue package from the previous UPA-II government, West Bengal on Monday sought a three-year moratorium on payment of interest on debt from the new Narendra Modi-led government.
The state government had to shell out Rs. 77,000 crore in last three years just to service the debt. The nation's finance minister Arun Jaitley is requested to consider providing the state an interest moratorium for three years and explore ways in which this can be done. But this too is not done by falling prostrate at the feet of the Modi Government.
The next two years we shall wait for more and more good things to happen. 'Long Live Ma Mati Manush Government' in spite of the satire and ridicule of the so called leftist intellectuals in the state over Mamata Banerjee's English and Hindi speeches. The leftists have given sophisticated speeches, and none of their promises have been fully carried out.
In the name of socialist and proletarian ideology, they only duped people. Some people can be made fools for all time, all people for some time, but all people cannot be made fool for all times. This is the lesson the Leftist leaders have got after three years of Mamata Banerjee-led government.

Finding a good web site name is not as easy as it used to be. Actually, it hasn't been easy for a long time now because a lot of good domain names have been taken. However, it is still possible to find the perfect domain name for your blog. In this post, I will share with you how I ended up with names like Moolanomy for my personal finance blog and Blogthority for my meta-blog.
Seven characteristics of a good domain name
Before I show you how, I want to share with you some characteristics of a good domain name:
- Short – The name should be relatively short — i.e., no more than 12 letters. For example, both Blogthority and Moolanomy fit this characteristic.
- Easy to remember — The name should be easy to pronounce and spell. Single word is best — even if the word is partially made up.
- Contains keyword — If your blog is niche specific, it's beneficial to have part of a word or 1-2 full words specific to that niche. On the other hand, if your blog is more general, it's beneficial to have blog name that doesn't narrow the scope of your blog too much. In any case, you don't want to go crazy and have a domain name that is just a bunch of keywords either.
- Brandable — Alternatively, you can go for catchy name. For example, Twitter.com, Zecco.com, and Google.com are brandable names.
- Dot com domain — Dot com domain extension is king. I think that you are better off getting a less good domain name with a dot com extension, than a really good domain name with dot net or other extensions. When we speak of a domain name, people naturally think of the dot com version.
- Hard to mistaken — Try to avoid plurals, "the," "my," hyphenation, and numbers. These elements dilute the quality of your domain name.
- Hard to misinterpret — This one may not seems very obvious, but here is a good example: expertsexchange.com. What do you think? Is it "Expert Sex Exchange" or "Experts Exchange"?
Create an amazing domain name in 4 steps
- Start with a niche in mind — Serious blogging takes a lot of commitment and passion. If you have a good idea what your web site will be about, you should focus on that particular niche. If you have several related ideas, they could potentially go together in one generalized blog. Otherwise, it's better to have one niche blog for each of your idea. Start with the niche you are most comfortable with so you can see how it works.
- Brainstorm keywords — Now that you identified a niche, let's say you want to blog about the "environment." You can use a thesaurus to brainstorm related keywords and synonyms. For the word "environment," we have the following words:
- abode, biosphere, element, haven, green, ambiance, atmosphere, aura, climate, domain, element, habitat, purlieus, scene, surroundings, terrain, territory, etc.
- Brainstorm domain name ideas — There are several things you can do to get your final domain name ideas:
- Use domain name idea generators like MakeWords.com or Nameboy
- Use prefix or suffix word splicing to create a new word. Check this site for a great list of prefixes and suffixes.
- Register your domain name — Once you have a handful of names you really like. Head over to GoDaddy.com for domain name registration. If your domain name is taken, don't give up — just rinse and repeat.
That's it! Have fun finding amazing domain names.

Soft, supple and so sweet for a summer wedding, succulent flowers are one of the many things that we love! Recently we have noticed that these fleshy little beauties have found their way into wedding ceremonies and reception decor everywhere. The unexpected use of these non-traditional flowers makes for a striking and simply lovely look! While usually a soft green or gray shade of these plants are used to accent more traditional floral selections, these plants also come in a wide range of colors, shapes and sizes. For all you nature conscious brides out there, these plants are known for their eco-friendly qualities. The plants are able to survive in very dry and arid climates and can survive on very little water. Because of their easy growth, usually no pesticides or chemicals are used. Also, the plants live nearly forever! Once succulents are cut for use in your bouquet and other wedding decor, they will last for weeks and can then be planted! These hearty flowers are perfect for summer weddings because they can withstand the heat of the day without wilting. Check out our inspiration board featuring gorgeous succulents paired with shades of green, cream and yellow.

Archive for the 'Certified Japanese Translation Services' Category
Certified Japanese Translation Services & the Statement of Certification
Certified Japanese English translation must be issued with a Statement of Certification -also called a "Certificate of Accuracy"- to be accepted & approved by official & governmental organizations.
So, what exactly is a Statement of Certification?
It is a document issued by the translating entity -professional Japanese translation company or professional freelance translator- that essentially says "we believe this translation is accurate". Here's an example of the declaration of accuracy you might expect:
"X Professional Japanese Translation Service declares that the translation of the attached document(s) are to the best of our knowledge and belief a true and faithful rendering of the original Japanese document(s) done to the best of our ability as a professional translation service provider."
What else goes on the Certificate? At a bear minimum the Statement of Certification must:
- Be issued on the translation company's letterhead
- Include a declaration of accuracy
- Include a list of translated documents
- Be dated
- Display the company's contact information
- Have the translating company's stamp/seal affixed.
Naturally, there may be (slight) variations in the Statement of Certification issued by your certified Japanese translation services, which really is at the discretion of the translating services company. For example, some Statements will have the signature of a company representative while others will have the official company stamp (seal) affixed.
And, occasionally, official & governmental organizations may also require that the Statement of Certification also be notarized making for both a certified Japanese translation AND a notarized Japanese translation. However, unless specifically required by the organization where you'll be submitting your documents, you shouldn't plan on visiting your local Notary Public!
(p.s. Notarized translation in Japan is hugely expensive, since the Notary Public falls under the Ministry of Justice which makes for a kind of monopoly.)

I've been meaning to get back into crock pot cooking, and the Fix-It and Forget-It cookbooks make it so easy. I like the one that has the five-ingredient recipes.
I've been meaning to get back into crock pot cooking, and the Fix-It and Forget-It cookbooks make it so easy. I like the one that has the five-ingredient recipes.
Here, you crocking Turkers, is the recipe I used yesterday for Beef Bourginion (Beef Burgundy). I have a large oval crock pot which I found made it necessary to use more liquid than the recipes I consulted suggested. This recipe is an adaptation of about 5 that I found. The prep is a little much, since my normal approach with the crock pot is a lazy one, mainly throwing things in, covering with water and turning it on.
2.5/3 lb chuck roast
2 cups of carrots (I bought the ones already cut into crinkle coins to avoid that prep)
2 medium/small vidalia onions, chopped
1 package frozen pearl onions (Trader Joe's)
1 lb portobello mushrooms, sliced (note: SO asked for some whole mushrooms and some quartered to see how that worked, since mushrooms shrink)
inexpensive Burgundy wine
beef broth (low sodium in a tetra pack)
2 T tomato paste (squeeze tube)
2 t minced garlic (pre-minced in a jar)
3 T flour
1 lb bacon
bay leaf
I cooked the bacon to crispy. I reserved about half the bacon for BLTs. Set bacon aside. Cut roast into large chunks, peppered and browned in the bacon fat. (We do not use salt, but you might want some). Put browned chuck in crock pot. Added carrots and onion to same pan and cooked them until the carrots were starting to soften then added garlic. Added a little wine and de-glazed the pan to release all the brown bacon bits, just moving all the contents around while I scraped the pan underneath. Cooked 1-2 min then added tomato paste and mixed in. Added a little beef broth and the flour, then a little more beef broth. Let this cook while stirring to blend in flour and thicken the sauce. Put bay leaf and pearl onions (now thawed) in the crock pot and added the bacon (crumbled) and then the sauce and veggie mixture from the pan. Cooked on low for 7 hours and added sliced mushrooms and more wine and beef broth (50/50) to bring the liquid in the pot up to cover most. Cooked one more hour for a total of 8 hours cooking time. Turned out good! Will probably serve over pasta. One recipe suggested serving over egg noodles. Last night we had BLTs and tonight we'll have the BB.
---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------
This recipe does not have a title, but it is a favorite at my house.
You will need:
- A pound of bacon
- cabbage
- potatoes
- onions
- carrots
- turnips
- parsnips
- a bay leaf
- a crock pot, the larger the better. Hell, use two!
- water
How many potatoes or carrots or onions or turnips or parsnips? However many you want. My SO likes the cabbage, potatoes, carrot and onion best, so I make sure there are plenty of those. I love the flavor of the parsnips and turnips so I put those in for me.
- Clean the veggies and cut them if you feel you need to. I usually only cut up the largest ones just to they will fit together better in the crock pot. I quarter one cabbage. I leave skins on for nutrition.
- Put the veggies in the crock pot. I like to put the cabbage, potatoes and onions on the bottom layer. Then I fill the gaps with smaller carrots and parsnips chunks. I also like to put the turnips on the second layer. They soften faster than the potatoes.
- Tuck the bay leaf in there somewhere
- Take the bacon and lay the strips on top of the whole mess
- Fill the crock pot with water just up to the top of the veggies and underneath the layer of bacon
- Cook on low for 5 hours or so, or until the smell drives you nuts and you have to have some
- Remove the bay leaf
- Serve with butter, salt and fresh ground black peppercorns to taste
Anyone else an avid crockpot cooker?
Care to share some of your recipes, I need something new to try!

The word from Cabo is devastation, as many suspected after Hurricane Odile smacked the place dead on. Flooding, downed trees, ripped-off roofs, you name it, they got it. Some visitors couldnt leave for a couple of days, because the airport was hit hard, too. It was the worst hurricane ever for Cabo. La Paz got smacked, too, maybe with even more rain. East Cape mostly escaped the worst, said John Ireland at Rancho Leonero. The peak of hurricane season is right now. This year, the Pacific hurricanes have been more frequent and strong than those in the Atlantic, as expected by meteorologists watching the warm waters.
My question about where the dorado are was promptly answered by the fleet, moving up from the south. The schmoos are thick, like they should be, on kelps between The Ridge and Cedros Island, it would appear. And they lived up to their nickname Tuesday.
Word from Cal Sheets Of Cals 2-Speed Reels today is that he expects to make a move with his shop, to Fallbrook, after the first of the year. His phone number will remain the same. That new address will be reflected in Cals ad in the new calendar, going to press in the next few days. It should be going to distribution about October 1.
Cal related the results of his trip to Prince Edward Island with son Eric, Basil Pappas of BHP Tackle and Stuart Exall, another well-known long ranger. They all caught giant bluefin tuna, and all fish were released alive. Cal got a 750-pounder, Eric cut loose a 700 and a 900-pounder, Basil got two about 650 pounds and Stuart produced a fish between 850 and 900 pounds.
All the guys we met there who fished standup style like we did were long rangers, commented Cal.
Early Bite
American Angler reported September 16:
This morning we found a school right out of the gate and picked at the Yellowfin for a couple hours, hooking fish on bait a few on the Yoyo jigs and things seemed to be going our way. We managed to drive around the whole rest of the day with only a few handfuls of fish in 10 hours. The bright side to this story is that there is fish around and tomorrow is another day. When the day was all said and done, the gang caught 67 nice Yellowfin tuna. Hope for more in our future.
Air Show
Skipper Jeff DeBuys wrote for Independence September 16:
Today we combined travel and fishing with great results . While making our way up to the tuna grounds we were in kelp country that were holding nice grade Dorado. Great action on 10 to 20-pounders. The fish put on an acrobatic show for everyone, and the pace was fast as it gets ; sorry, no pictures today as things were just too busy at the time. Slightly breezy weather for the next few days out in the Tuna zone, so wish us luck.
Out West
Jesus Companioni. Intrepid skipper, noted September 16:
We are fishing our way up. Yesterday we had a great day of fishing out to the west with some quality and quantity on dorado and yellow tail. Our Seaguar group is having a blast and the weather is good. We will try for more yellows today. Wish us luck.
Early Dorado Slam
Royal Polaris found a hot paddy bite September 16:
Our morning started out with great weather, a slight breeze to cool it down, and searching for kelps. We stopped on a couple of kelps before finding paydirt. This kelp had a no vacancy sign on it, and when the smoked cleared, we had our limits of Dorado. Most of the Dorado were in the 15 to 18-pound range, with a few going over 20 pounds, and yes, we did have a few smaller ones, but not that many.
So now it's on to our next destination, the Yellowfin grounds. We should arrive around 05:00 hours, so wish us luck and we will keep you posted.
More Dodos
We broke up the day hitting kelps for decent grade dorado, said Royal Star skipper Randy Toussaint September 16, as we worked up the coast towards the tuna grounds. We were in beautiful blue 75-degree water all day but as is usually the case in hot water years, the overall sign of fish in this area was disappointing. We will be on the yellowfin tuna grounds in the morning and are hoping to get a weather window later in the week to target the big bluefin.
Made Goal
Searcher posted September 16:
"We accomplished our goal this morning with excellent dorado fishing on a kelp paddie. Everyone had a great time and got all the dorado they needed. Most of the fish were in the 10-12 pound range with a few stand-outs. Penn University rep Steve Carson weighed a 24-pound dorado, and there were a few more in that class. Pictured is Capt Aaron and Steve Goldblatt AKA Goldy, with a 20-pounder.
We are blessed to have Capt Aaron in the mast with his great eyes. He spotted the kelp paddie from 3 miles away. Nice work, Capt Aaron! We are headed northwest the rest of the day and night, arriving in the tuna grounds tomorrow morning.
And More
On an eight-day trip, Shogun reported September 16:
We started fishing around 5:30 this morning, right after breakfast. Within less than an hour, we fell on our first kelp. Pulling up next to it, we hooked up immediately and within a few chaotic minutes we had a bright box full of dodos and a great start to our day.
Throughout the rest of the morning and afternoon we stopped on kelps, almost every one having at least a few dorado on it. Our best stop was in the afternoon, where we landed the majority of our numbers, with some really nice bulls up to 25 pounds.
Having caught out fair share, were traveling overnight, looking to fill the wells with some tuna for the next couple days.

Last month, Apple released iOS 6 along with brand new iPhone 5 which is taller, thinner and lighter as compared to previous iPhones. Did you just get your iPhone 5 or recently updated your iPhone 3GS, 4 or 4S to iOS 6? As we know that there updating iOS 6 will also upgrade your basebands so your unofficial SIM card will not work on the iPhone. What to do in such situation? Don't worry, the guys over MyIMEIunlock has the optimum solution for these cases.
This method is called Factory unlocking or IMEI unlocking, this method has been recommended by MusclNerd of iPhone dev-team, as the developers and hackers found difficulities in upgrading ultrasn0w to work with higher basebands.
This unlock method is legal and will permanently unlock your iPhone. So, you can use any SIM card for any carrier worldwide. The best thing about this unlock method is that it works with any iPhone and is independent to iOS 6 and any baseband version. So, it is a permanent solution for your iPhone and you will not have to worry about updating to higher iOS in the future.
Currently, the basebands present in different iPhones on iOS 6 are as follow:
- iPhone 5 baseband 1.00.16
- iPhone 4s baseband 3.0.04
- iPhone 4 baseband 04.12.02
- iPhone 3Gs baseband 05.16.07
Important notes before factory unlocking your iPhone:
- You must know the official carrier of your iPhone (the carrier which your iPhone is locked to), then check if your iPhone official carrier is in this list or not. If exists, so your iPhone is eligible for IMEI factory unlock method. In case you don't know the official carrier of your iPhone, you check your by using iTools, or by IMEI checker
- Take care as there are dozen of scammers who claiming that they able to unlock your iPhone. After investigation the market, we have found MyIMEIunlock.com is the most reliable and is supporting many carriers worldwide, also we found very good feedback from customers about their service.

Step 2: Check if the official carrier of your iPhone can be unlocked or not from this list
Step 3: Place your order and wait until receiving confirmation email that your iPhone has been unlocked
Step 4: Put unofficial SIM into your iPhone, then connect iPhone to iTunes - if it doesn't unlock then disconnect, wait 5 seconds, then re-connect. You should now be unlocked and see the iTunes "Unlock Complete" screen

Legacy Network Convergence
Network convergence
Network convergence refers to the provision of telephone, video and data communication services within a single network. In other words, one pathway is used to deliver all forms of communication. The process of Network Convergence has been mainly driven by development of technology and customer demand. The goal of such integration being to deliver better services, lower prices and increased interoperability to consumers. Users are able to access a wider range of services and choose complementary devices and associated services from among more service providers. DataRemote views Legacy Network Convergence as an opportunity to adopt new business models while offering innovative services to an ever increasing global marketplace. DataRemote views one key element of success as providing the capability to interface or match existing "legacy" devices with the world of the digital Internet of Things (IoT). We have continued to provide unique and innovative solutions matching the analog world with the digital world of communications. This focus has allowed customers to maintain current legacy devices and enjoy the benefits of the newer network protocols and services.
analog world with the digital world of communications. This focus has allowed customers to maintain current legacy devices and enjoy the benefits of the newer network protocols and services.
Pathways are available to transmit voice, video signals and data to homes and business. In the past, it is restricted to communicating by wire line. Two-way communication has been limited to voice and text by the limited availability of bandwidth and by the availability of spectrum.
In the telecommunications world, convergence has come to mean a moving towards the use of one medium as opposed to manipulation of all forms of information including voice, data and video across all types of networks instead of carrying information separately within distinct networks. In the DataRemote view of the convergent network, different forms of information can be re-configured to provide better, more flexible services to the user. The DataRemote portfolio of solutions accomplishes these tasks nicely.
Convergence is about services and about new ways of doing business and of interacting with society. Convergence can be categorized in the following ways:
1. The first or Basic Convergence is the combination and connection across platforms and networks, which allows several types of networks to connect with each other within certain common standard and protocol. DataRemote has built deep understanding of this tier of convergence and has solutions available to meet both legacy and new customer demand.
2. The second view of convergence is with telecommunication services, allowing users to use a single network to provide several communication services that traditionally required separate networks. DataRemote has engineered our offerings to insure capability.
3. The third view is market convergence. The convergent network will stimulate activity, innovation and collaboration among applications and solutions. Digital technology allows both traditional and new communication services – whether voice, data, sound or pictures – to be provided over many different networks. DataRemote pioneered "moving data over wireless". It is in that spirit that we continue meeting and exceeding our customer's expectations.
Benefits of Convergence include:
1.Reduced cost
Many of the costs associated with separate networks, such as the costs of separate equipment and facilities, can be avoided;
2. Greater coverage
With a converged network, the full set of services can be provided over the entire network (the union of the network segments) as opposed to full service being limited the intersection of the service-specific networks;
3. Easier interoperability
Convergence facilitates interoperability among the networks of different carriers, which further expands the effective coverage area;
4.Common user interface
A common user interface and a common access method could be provided for all services.

Support Us
Thank you for your interest in supporting the students of the Salinas Valley by making a tax-deductible gift to the Hartnell College Foundation. Gifts to the Foundation can be unrestricted so that we may apply them to the areas of greatest need, or you may direct that they be applied to priorities identified in the Campus Fundraising Plan. That plan includes specific projects and initiatives, scholarships, campus areas or programs, technology and equipment, and the Annual Fund.
Please explore the links on the top left corner of this page for ways to make gifts to Hartnell, to include Hartnell in your estate plans, to establish an annuity, to create a lasting legacy for your family or loved ones by creating an endowment, or to show your immediate support by participating in one of our sponsorship opportunities. We appreciate your support!

Securities/ Stocks
A gift of appreciated securities to the Hartnell College Foundation can provide you with several benefits, including the avoidance of capital gains tax assessment and the preservation of cash assets.

Donations from your IRA account
Donors who are at least 70 1/2 years old who take distributions from an IRA account and want to support Hartnell can take advantage of a recent temporary tax law change. This law permits donors to contribute up to $100,000 that is withdrawn from an IRA account and paid directly to a charity, with no federal tax consequences.
The amount withdrawn and paid by the account administrator to the charity is excluded from federally taxable income for the year. However, no charitable contribution deduction is permitted. Even those who do not itemize are permitted to take advantage of this new law.
The rules apply to withdrawals and contributions made through Dec. 31, 2007.
Gift Annuities
The Foundation participates in a statewide community college gift annuity program. A charitable gift annuity is a contract in which you exchange a gift of cash or securities for a fixed income each year for the rest of your life (or for the lives of two people). Gift annuities can offer income for life, a tax deduction, a tax-free payout, and a capital gains tax savings, as well as an opportunity to assist the charitable cause of your choice. We can provide you with a free gift annuity analysis by completing the brief questions in our Gift Annuity brochure. Please request a Gift Annuity brochure by phoning the Foundation office at (831) 755-6810.
If you have any questions about any of these ways to give, or if you would like to talk about any of these opportunities, please call our office at (831) 755-6810 or contact Jackie Cruz at firstname.lastname@example.com.

In the continuing saga of the Adventures of the #OleWinos, who are visiting the wineries of the luxury wine group MG Wines Group, we meandered around southern Spain to the DO of Bullas. The Bullas DO is located in Murcia, and is known in particular for it's young red and rose wines from the local Monastrell grape.
This time, we are headed to Bodegas Lavia, in the DO of Bullas. This area has been producing wine since at least the 13th century, when he Christians invaded and pushed the Moors out. The modern wine industry wasn't developed, however, until the 1980s, when the bulk wine industry was supplanted by modern equipment and smaller winery investors. In 1994, it officially became a Denominacian de Origin.With MG Wines' focus on wineries that share a philosophy of coaxing the essence of the grape out, Lavia fits this culture perfectly with it's dedication to the finer points of Syrah and Monastrell.
Located in Venta del Pino, Bodegas Lavia is at approximately 800 meters above sea level. With Monastrell vines averaging 40 years old or more, younger Syrah plantings are intermingled, giving Lavia it's distinct flavor profile. The use of native yeast further adds tot he overall terroir of the wines, and it's slant towards lower tannin, elegant, and fresh Monastrell-Syrah based blends. With 2,500 hectares planted to 80% Monasrell, a bit of Tempranillo, a bit of white, and the rest Syrah, the wines are an icon of the very small Bullas DO.

"It's no longer hip to be square"
products: tree of life
tree of life ceramic tile mosaic, maple tree ceramic tile designs, oak tree tiles, japanese maple tree shaped tiles designs, and more!
All handmade ceramic tiles are made in the usa
The Tree of Life dates back to the time of the Garden of Eden. It's the tree that stood in the center of "The Garden of the Lord." It was the source of eternal life and blessings. In Ezekiel 47:12, it mentions that "the trees whose 'fruit will be for food and their leaves for healing'."
"The Hands of God"
I AM happy to announce this beautiful new ceramic tile tree of life "The Hands of God." I would like to thank my client; Chris Summers for her patience waiting for her order, and the fantastic finished installation pictures.
Father's beauty is everywhere around us. He IS, and IS IN EVERYTHING; the earth, water, air, and fire." He is the energy that comprises our blessed planet Gaia, and most importantly, He in all of us. Stand in His presence, swim in His glory, breath Him in, and let His fire burn within your heart. We are truly one when we invite God within us; I know I AM.
In some cultures, the tree of life represents the evolutionary divergence of all living creatures. I like to think of a tree of life ceramic tile mural as God's loving arms reaching unto His children. No matter how you look at it, the Tree of Life is a beautiful way to express that everything on earth is "one" and reliant upon each other; so embrace it and its beauty.
This kitchen sink back splash ceramic tile design perfectly posed behind a sink/vessel, comes alive when installed; just like when our soul enters our vessel at birth.
Please take a moment and carefully look at the two pictures below. The mosaic tile tree of life on the left is the studio layout, prior to shipping; without grout. The one on the right is the finished installation with grout.
Now, look closer at the picture to the right; you might notice that there are multiple colors of grout used in the finished installation. This completes the "painting" of this mural. Grout just isn't something that holds the tiles together, but is the "paint" that binds a mosaic tile mural.
Japanese Maple Tree of Life - "Hands of God"
This mosaic tile Tree of Life is made up of individual shaped tiles that comprise a Japanese Maple tree ceramic tile mosaic. It stands strong, but alone in a green pasture with a flowing stream beneath it.
Just like our beautiful planet and the people that inhabit it, everything is custom made. Your stream can even have fish swimming in it.
The sky and tiled stream / creek use a blue tile grout in different degrees of intensity, and the grassy area uses a green ceramic tile grout to create unification by color and to create depth.
The next time you are thinking of ceramic tile for your home, think about a truly unique ceramic tile design that compliments the unique you. And remember, the unity of the whole is stronger than it's parts; just like us!
This is an example of a short, spreading oak tree of life mosaic tile Another oak tree ceramic tile design is achieved by combining two red oak trees. This design is apart of a 6' round mosaic tile Mandela for the Seneca Nation in Oklahoma.
The center of this medallion / mandela contains their stone house. Behind it are the two large red oak trees. this design literally contains about 1000 handmade ceramic tiles. The outer perimeter of this mandela has each of their clan elements in shaped ceramic tiles.
maple, tree of life ceramic tile mosaic
The ceramic tile tree of life mosaic above shows a maple tree that contains 41 maple leaf tiles. Each leaf tile represents one year of life on earth for a beloved brother.
white oak, tree of life mosaic tiles
Beautiful tree of life ceramic tile mosaic design
These are the coordinating bathroom floor tiles. 4x4 leaf tile mosaics were create to drop into the manufactured ceramic tile motifs.
tree of life coordinating 4x4 motifs
This Tree of Life ceramic tile mosaic shows a spreading White Oak tree. I used two different clay bases with the same ceramic tile glaze for the leaf tiles to achieve darks and lights. The ceramic tile tree has a bit of carving to convey the concept of bark. Around the tree tiles are small to medium round blue tiles in turquoise tones to express the sky. Beneath the tiled oak tree are some rock tiles and some round green tiles to signify the earth and create an anchor for the design.
This close up helps show some of the detail in the tree ceramic tile, leaf tiles, and rock tile. The ceramic tile glazes used on the ceramic tile leaves is called Candy Corn. It looks like two different colors, but is actually the same color. The clay base is the difference. One is off-white, and the other a tan. The transparent nature of this ceramic tile glaze allows the clay base to show through. this glaze has been discontinued by the manufacturer, but I stock piled it for years to come and for you to enjoy.
A special thanks to Jeannine Rouleau for all of the great pictures of her tree of life bathroom and kitchen birds in leaves mosaic designs. You can also visit the Birds link for closeup pictures of the leaves and birds.
Studio layout of a ceramic tile tree of life "God's Glory"
weeping tree of life effect
Another lovely ceramic tile tree design is this weeping branch effect. Please note, I do not have a template of this specific leaf, so I can't duplicate it again. It was sent to me from a client from a tree in her lawn.
Originally Dara wanted a tree of life, but I suggested this exquisite design. The structure of this tree was quite interesting; the branches hung downward and it was quite unique and worthy of duplicating in functional art.
This is the studio layout of the weeping branch ceramic tile tree leaf design. I would recommend that the grout be either a gray or a blue gray color to make the wavy sky tiles blend into the background and the tree branch tiles and ceramic tile leaves pop out from the design.
This picture better illustrates the detail in the branches of the tree ceramic tiles and the minute definition of the leaves. It also shows the varied / art glaze effect of the Western Glazes, Silver Green on the leaf tiles. Just beautiful!
post oak, tree of life ceramic tile design
Studio layout of an old post oak tree tile of life backsplash
This tree of life ceramic tile design is a post oak tree of life. The tile post oak leaves, rounds and rock-like grass pieces are all under 2" in size. You might be able to find a squirrel tile in the tree and two tile dogs beneath the tree if you look carefully.
