In this excerpt from Chapter 3, the main character in One Night in Tehran, Titus Ray, sounds as if he might be a bit vain about his looks. That's only because he is.
The CIA tries to recruit people who are outstanding in every way, except for their physical characteristics. A person shouldn't be too short or too tall–that would make them more noticeable, especially in an overseas environment, where they are already apt to be remembered because they are foreigners.
Neither should a recruit be too beautiful or too ugly, because that too would make them stand out in a crowd. The goal of a CIA recruiter is to find men and women who, while being trustworthy, intelligent and physically strong, look very ordinary and forgettable.
Titus Ray qualified because he had a face that "blended."
When I thought about who might be assigned to my debriefing team, I decided it was time to shave off my beard. I also decided, after studying my face in the bathroom mirror, that Terry Howard was wrong; I didn't look that bad. Granted, I wasn't George Clooney handsome, but who was?
Years ago, someone had told me I was a pretty good-looking guy. Since then, no one had told me otherwise.
My trainers at The Farm had described my face as one that "blended." They considered that a good thing. Put me in a restaurant, a bus station, a mosque, and I blended right in. I didn't draw attention.
Only, as it turned out in Tehran, one time I did.
After taking a quick shower, I put on the clothing supplied for me by Support Services—a pair of dark slacks and a blue oxford shirt. My debriefers would be in very formal business attire, but I knew if I looked halfway decent and appeared to be in my right mind, that's all they expected of me. Unlike Bud Thorsen—who had a nervous breakdown after a two-year stint in Yemen and had arrived at his debriefing sessions in his pajamas—I did not want a transfer to a desk job.
At least, I didn't think so.

I'm going to take a moment to let that sink in, as the news is still springtime fresh in my mind. As of this writing, Drudge Report and Hot Air, as well as Fox, are all reporting the same piece of news: Osama Bin Laden, mastermind behind the 9/11 terrorist attacks on our soil, as well as alleged mastermind of such attacks as the '93 bombing of the WTC, as well as the bombing of our embassies in Lybia. If this news is indeed true, it is a momentous occasion, as it vindicates ten years of conflict and ten years' worth of dead United States fighting men and women, as well as justification for ten years of soldiers being away from their families for inordinate amounts of time.
Drudge report doesn't seem to want to report on how he died, however, as the link leading to the story that Matt Drudge has provided leads to what amounts to a biographical account of the mass murderer's words and deeds throughout his life. Fox News and Hot Air, however, are providing preliminary information about the death of bin Laden, and that he was killed in a drone strike that was committed last week and killed approximately 23 people. If indeed bin Laden IS dead, then I will be dancing in the streets tomorrow.
UPDATE: bin Laden has just been confirmed dead by POTUS, who is as of this writing speaking now on Fox News Channel.
It was Ronald Reagan who said on the eve of his election, that it was morning again in America. With the most notorious terrorist of our time dead by the actions of our valiant military, I feel once again that such is the case. With this evil man now smoldering in the deepest circle of Hell, it is morning once again in my America. And also, we Americans have found an event that we can once again rally around, not in horrific grief, as with 9/11, but elated, and filled with triumph, for we, the United States of America, have brought down the head of one of the most poisonous snakes ever to sink its venom into our society.
UPDATE: AP is reporting that it was in fact a spec ops team that killed Osama, and NBC corroborates the story. Fox also has something on the subject.

THERE'S a new exercise class in Whalley Range... for those who have the stomach for it.
Belly dancing instructor Rachel McGregor is launching women-only sessions to bring exercise and eastern promise to south Manchester.
The 29-year-old Levenshulme teacher has been instructing for four years in Cheadle and Trafford but says the new William Hulme-based lessons will be the jewell in her... crown.
And it's not about tiny waists and flowing scarves, says Rachel, it's about fun.
"My classes are for women and girls, regardless of age, size or fitness level. No dancing experience is necessary at the beginners' classes, and there is definitely no need to 'have the belly for it'," she said.
"You don't have to look or dress a certain way to dance well or to enjoy yourself. Each week we look at some moves in detail, giving you the chance to review and build on your repertoire.
"New people join throughout the year and if you don't know anyone when you join, you soon will." Rachel also teaches staff at Christie's Hospital in Withington, building up moves in stages so each woman can find her level and work from there.
"Tribal belly dancing is lively and uplifting, and can be anything from a form of exercise to a passion. Going belly dancing is a chance to relax and dance with other women in a light-hearted atmosphere," said Rachel.
"It's up to you whether it's also about learning a new skill, expressing yourself, exercising or simply having fun and making friends.
She added: "I find belly dancing exhilarating. I still remember the delight I felt when I went to my first class and thought: 'This is great!'
"Being in a women-only environment is really refreshing, laughing is par for the course and shaking is actively encouraged. In addition to my weekly classes, I perform and teach one-off workshops. After four years I still love my job because I send people home with a smile on their faces."

Upon first hearing it, my initial impulse was say I didn't think Sting could write like this anymore, but more accurately, I should have said I didn't think he had any interest in doing so. But upon reflection, it's not like I've heard any of his deep cuts in 20 years, so for all I know he's being putting a half dozen such tracks on each album. (Although I doubt it.)
But the really amazing thing, beyond how great a tune it is, is that up until the chorus at least, it sounds like Bruce Springsteen: the guitar-driven backing track, the melody, the lyrics, hell, even the way the video is shot. There seems to be a weird key change (maybe?) in the chorus that makes it not quite Bruce, but otherwise, it feels like ol' Gordon is channeling his blue collar pal at his very catchiest. And that chorus is absolutely prime 1984 pop, and I have no higher praise for a single than that.

How We Design Wi-Fi For You
Video Transcription:
Here at SecurEdge Networks we understand that wireless design is both an art and a science and to deliver it properly we must balance both aspects in an effort to achieve two goals.
Our first goal is speed so that we can get you a proposal or an estimate so that you understand what you need and the cost for your wireless system.
Our second goal is accuracy so that we can ensure you've got the proper RF capacity and coverage for the devices and applications that you are gonna be using.
Our approach to wireless design also keeps your environment and industry specific challenges in mind. Our design team has an accumulated fifty plus years of related experience to pull from.
We aren't so presumptuous to think we know it all as no two businesses or organizations are exactly identical. As a result, we need input from you to make sure we address your challenges and pains adequately.
Now to design wireless properly, we have to have some expertise around it. Our team attains expertise or has attained expertise around wireless design from multiple sources.
Our engineers go through manufacturer training and certification, wireless design software and certification, wireless industry training and certification, not to mention that SecurEdge as a company has over thirteen years of experience in the field in deployments to pull from that no book or classroom can replace.
Our design staff has over fifty plus years of related experience plus years of Wi-Fi design focus.
Now the culmination of our design approach plus our expertise around wireless design will result in a personalized design report for you. Your design will consider your environment plus the unique challenges and needs that we have identified with you. The design report will also identify AP locations and counts, what we predict the RF coverage to be as well as an estimate for the cost of the system which includes hardware, software, and services.
Michael McNamee
Michael is the Practice Manager of Security and Mobility at SecurEdge Networks. A true Wi-Fi "Guru", he has an incredible ability at solving the most challenging wireless mess and then helping you understand it all.

Evolved Waypoints
Custom Points of Interest (POI) are a handy resource to have on your Garmin GPS that pinpoint on your onscreen maps and alert you when you are getting near to the geographic location of those places. These useful POIs can be anything from historic monuments, to the best coffee shops, to your favorite restaurant chains, and of course; all of those red light or speed monitoring cameras that you don't want photographing you doing something untoward.
POIs are enhanced waypoints that your GPS will navigate you to because they are marked by an icon on the map at their precise longitude and latitude. On more advanced Garmin models, details of that place such as a descriptive background, a digital image, or a telephone number will also be provided. Most GPS maps come loaded with POIs to some extent but now users can collect and organize the specific collection that they will find most intriguing or useful while travelling.
Custom POIs can be uploaded for a Garmin by means of software applications designed for that purpose which can be purchased and inserted or downloaded from the Internet. Users are then free to organize, customize, and create their own list from various sources. You no longer are solely at the mercy of a generic list provided by Garmin or compatible POI software. In addition, free software is now available to make up your list apart from the subscription fee-based designations that digitally adorn the maps you see on your GPS screen. Learn how to make a custom POI Garmin GPS list below.
Garmin POI Loader Software
One of the best ways to attain your custom POI list for Garmin GPS units is by utilizing the free software offering provided by Garmin, which is called POI Loader. This user-friendly application allows you to upload a list you customize to a Garmin GPS that is compatible to this software. Moreover, you can update your list as you see fit when the spirit moves you or your interests expand.
You can download the latest version of POI Loader easily from www.8.garmin.com/products/poiloader/. Once it's downloaded from your computer, simply transfer it onto your compatible Garmin GPS using a USB cord or a SD memory card. You can also customize Proximity Alerts relative to when you want your GPS to tell you that you are approaching your designated POIs. From this same website, you can also find addition third-party POI software resources that are also compatible with your GPS. So go ahead, personalize a list of POIs, and have your very own virtual tour guide.

This review is a bit late and for that I apologize. The holidays literally kicked my butt. I have been so busy and stressed out. I never miss a day posting here and I missed quite a bit in the last 2 weeks. But thankfully the holidays are over. I hope next year to work on my time management and to slow down!! But anyway, back to the review. As you know from my original post here I was contacted by Adore Me. If you are not familiar with Adore Me, here is some information.
Adore Me, they would send me a product to review , I would blog that and after that a giveaway would be posted for my followers. I posted the introduction on the 18th and did not receive my code until the 29th. After I got the code I thought about it and figured that when I signed up for an account with Adore Me that I would have to join the monthly club in order to get my "free" item to review. So I signed up and went to check out and my code did not work. I emailed Adore Me and they said the code was fine. Tried to checkout for the 5th time and it worked. I was VERY pleasantly surprised to see that I did not have to sign up for the monthly club nor did I have to enter any payment information at all.
Thanks for reading,

September Games - Week One
As I am planning to play a game every day through the month of September, I thought I'd do weekly updates, rather than a monster post at the end of the month. As noted in my Fall Plans, I am continuing the tradition of 30 games in 30 days for September, but instead of making the kids play all of the games with me, I'm just doing it on my own. Oh, surely they will play SOME of the games with me, but the challenge is a personal one, and some of the games will be played with people other than my own family members.I'm also not making any requirements that every day be a different game, as we have some years. So, there may be a few days where I do play a quick game of For Sale with the kids, just to get a game in before going to bed.Here's how the first week went!Sunday, 1 September 2019Sunday afternoon Brent came over to play Nautilus with me and Amanda. The funny thing is the game used to belong to Brent! He won it at Fallcon (in a raffle) played it once with his kids, years ago, then is sat on his shelf f

In the event you sign up with this WordPress mainstay or continue your search?

People that have an active Elegant Themes account can open a service ticket by posting a question in the support forums.In addition to a General Questions sub-forum, each Elegant Themes product has its own active sub-forum.

Divi is undoubtedly among the best and most popular multi-purpose WordPress themes around. Since you are able to purchase Divi and Extra, together with 85 (admittedly increasingly outdated) other themes for just $89 (plus a few of very useful plugins), signing up with Elegant Themes represents excellent value for the money.The upgraded Divi Builder that is a core component of the Divi theme is also among the best WordPress site builders available now.

I have a paranoid personality (no Mom, it is not entirely your fault, though I am sure you helped develop it). Sometimes when I am lying in bed with the morning light filtering in the window, baby warm at my side, husband snoring to my right, and daughter safely tucked into bed in the room down the hall, I think about dying.
I wonder if my children would feel loved and cared for if I were to die tomorrow. I fight off the huge weight of sorrow that presses down on me at the thought of not seeing them grow up, and I wonder how I can better share my love with them while I am here.
So I have started memory scrapping. It's not a memory book, cause I suck at keeping track of the exact moment my child ate his or her first peach. It's not a scrap book, cause it needs to be more than pictures and saved memorabilia. It's a book of notes and letters, with a few pictures and pieces of memorabilia stuck in.
I have been writing letters to my children when the urge to do so has struck. Some of them contain stories of the things they have done, some simply contain sentiment, and some express my hopes and dreams for their futures.
I purchased some good 12 x 12 scrapbooks and some attractive paper. I stuck the letters in the books. I am leaving plenty of room for more letters. I have post cards, cards, handwritten letters, typed letters, photos, and more.
Marlena has already begun to read some of hers, and she loves to open the book, pick a page, and pluck a letter off of it, to hear some story of her past. She loves reading about the things she did, and loves the nature of the notes.
It is my hope that these letters will tell my children exactly how loved they are, no matter what happens to me.

Let's call it..... memory scrapping...

What a fantastic idea!
I started journals for my boys when I was pregnant with them that I'm not very good about updating... I also have a gazillion pictures... but I like combining the two. your kids will be so happy they have those and I'm sure they will know how much they were loved!
- Woman with a Hatchet said...
OMG you are so sweet!
Exactly where are you finding time to do such a thing?!
- Amy said...
Your scrapbook is beautiful! Great job. I am not good at the date of little things either. They will appreciate the stories more someday!
- Woman with a Hatchet said...
Hey I just noticed that's my shot in the last image! Hah! I'm gonna be everywhere in your memories! Well, photographically speaking at any rate.
So when are you moving back? How am I supposed to photograph first steps if I don't get to witness them?! Heee!
Did I ever tell you that I'm terrified of scrapbooking?
- Susan said...
I stopped in because Ellen was telling me about your calling the police.
This is a beautiful, touching idea. Your children will cherish them some day. No only will they know that they were loved, but this will give them something to feel close to you & remind them when their memories fade.
I wish I had something like this from my own mom.
- Valerie said...
Police wha?
Also very cool, I think you can call that full-fledged scrapbooking. I want to do that too! I've got random stuff of the boys all over the place and most dates are in the blog. I guess I could print out the blog... nah.
I love the letters idea. May I steal that one?

THE GODFATHER: HOW BRANDO BROUGHT DON CORLEONE TO LIFE – by Joseph Gelmis [Newsday]
And then there was Marion Brando, against all the odds, cast in one of filmdom's juiciest roles, as mob chief Don Vito Corleone. He was eased in, despite stiff opposition from the studio brass, because of the advocacy of a thirtyish fan, Francis Ford Coppola, an Italian-American who happened to be the director of The Godfather. Once he got the part, Brando in turn helped Coppola maintain camaraderie during the frenzied three-month shooting by kibitzing with the cast and establishing a fatherly relationship.

When is the time
right for practical gun control
Send a link to a friend
Virginia Tech, Aurora, Sandy Hook, Charleston, San Bernadino,
Orlando, and now Las Vegas. All "soft targets". All American
shooters yet we fear infiltration of Isis terrorists.
There was the "shoe bomber" and we tightened airport security; kids
could remove prescription caps so we tightened the lids so tight
most adults can't open them; some kids were injured by lawn darts,
so we legislated against their sale.
Laws need to outlaw the sale of not only "bump stocks" but all
assault weapons. Those weapons are made for one purpose-to kill
people. We need laws against unlicensed gun shows and online
purchase of weapons. We need to outlaw the sell of police killer
bullets. We need waiting periods before the purchase of weapons,
just like women seeking an abortion have to have a waiting period.
We need mental health screenings.
So much needs to be done but they say "now is not the time". For
crying out loud, when is the right time to stop these heinous
[to top of second column in this letter]
Farriers, hairdressers, psychologists, dog groomers
have to have licenses but to sell or purchase deadly weapons-NO.
We need to insist that gun owners must carry liability insurance
against any victims of shootings. More gun deaths, other than mass
shootings, are children from guns in the home.
I know, I know, I know that gun owners will insist they need their
guns to protect their homes. But you don't need an assault weapon!

Have you been having a day full of love, or un Jour de l'Amour as a francophone would refer to it? If you have, that's great; but, even if you haven't, you may just be able to brighten your spirits by giving this 5 reel, 25 payline game from Viaden a try and possibly winning big. That would make it a lovely day, in addition to a day of love for you romantic types.
Jour de l'Amour information
While you may have correctly concluded by looking at the title of the game that this slot has something to do with Paris, what you probably did not know is that it is very heavy on cats. Yes, felines are all over this one, from the rooftop background to the plethora of cat symbols populating the reels. So, this one should really appeal to cat-lovers, Paris-lovers, and those in a romantic mood.
Jour de l'Amour offers up a solid set of bonus features that is highlighted by three different scatter symbols that open up three different games. The "Goldfish Present" game has you trying to catch a goldfish; the "Catch a Bird" game will have your kitty trying to catch birdies; the "Great Mouser" bonus has you shopping. All of these are triggered by different symbols and all are some version of a pick'em bonus. As if all of this was not enough, there is also a normal scatter symbol which can win you up to 10 free spins, a wild symbol, and a gamble bonus for all of you high-rollers out there.
How to play Jour de l'Amour
Feeling like this might be your lucky and lovely day? If so, then what you'll ned to go here is make your ante bet and spin the reels. Click on the "gamble" button on the far right of the screen if you feel like putting it all on the line after a winning go-around.

Dear Anna Lappé,June 17th, 2010 7:38 pm by Kelly Garbato
Pages 206 and 207 of Anna Lappé's latest book, Diet for a Hot Planet (Bloomsbury, March 2010). Principle #2 in her "Seven Principles of a Climate-Friendly Diet" is "Put Plants on Your Plate." So far, so good, yes? Not so fast! Under "Resources for Principle 2," Lappé lists the following bullet points: "Viva veggies"; "Support real meat and dairy farmers"; and "Go for grass fed [beef]." Epic Animal, Vegetable, Mineral FAIL.
(Click through to enbiggen the image, the most offensive parts of which I have helpfully marked up with my trusty red Photoshop pen.)
Nonhuman animals ("meat" and "beef") and their secretions ("milk") are not plants, mkay? Unlike, say, pinto beans or watermelon, "beef" has a family and friends; can think, feel and suffer; and screams bloody fucking murder when you cut into
its her live flesh. While it's true that I've become all too accustomed to raw, shameless speciesism from environmentalists –
– for example, I just finished reading Eaarth, which was penned by the same stubborn "green" omnivore who penned the intro to your own latest stubbornly non-vegan "green" tome, in which he mentioned vegetarianism but twice (and veganism, not at all), despite a discussion of animal agriculture's sizable contribution to climate change, i.e., the very focus of his book –
– your recommendation to adopt a plant-heavy diet by consuming animals and animal by-products is beyond mind-boggling; it's at once factually incorrect and completely lacking in compassion. (Cows as cantaloupes? Hello, objectification!)
I mean, really – how do you expect me to take the rest of your Diet for a Hot Planet seriously after such a fundamental gaffe?
x A vegan-feminist environmentalist
P.S. There is no such thing as "humane meat." An unnecessary and involuntary death is, by definition, inhumane.

COLUMBUS – Since congressional Republicans are shunning town halls and other face-to-face meetings while home this week, health care advocates today sent them videos of constituents explaining why they support the Affordable Care Act.
For the past seven years, Republicans vowed to repeal the ACA, commonly known as Obamacare. With the GOP in firm control of Washington, voters have deluged ACA opponents with demands for meetings, hoping to get input into the long-promised repeal-and-replace plan.
The video includes Mitch Lerner of Granville, the father of three children with juvenile diabetes who now have health insurance, courtesy of the ACA.
Lerner uses the video to speak directly to Congress: "These are small children whose lives could be devastated by the decision you're about to make…. To steal someone's health care who faces these dreadful health problems is so unbelievably devastating that I don't know how you could ever look yourself in the eye again.''
Substitute teacher Laura Dachenback of Gahanna credits the insurance she obtained under the ACA with allowing her to hear.
"There would have been a number of jobs that would not have been available to me had I not been able to correct my hearing surgically,'' she says in the video. "Health care is literally freedom.''
UHCAN Ohio Executive Director Steve Wagner said his organization teamed up with ProgressOhio to make the video after Sen. Portman declined repeated requests for a town hall meeting.
"Emails and letters can't fully capture the impact the ACA has had on Ohio families,'' Wagner said. "The people most responsible for crafting a replacement must hear from the people most affected by its repeal.''
Health care providers took part in the video too.
Internal medicine expert Dr. Fatima Fadalla of Cleveland said the uncertainty over the fate of the ACA is of concern to doctors – not just patients.
"If I had one message to give to Sen. Portman it would essentially be to hold off on repealing the Affordable Care Act without an adequate replacement that would allow me to do my job as a physician,'' she said.
Since the ACA was signed into law, an estimated 20 million Americans – including nearly 1 million Ohioans – gained health insurance.
Although it is popular with many voters, some complain of rising premiums and dwindling choices of insurance carries.
John Lockwood, a Health System Strategist from Columbus, addresses the cost issues and explains how the ACA helps keep insurance premiums down.
"Not a lot of primary care physicians are going to be seeing patients who don't have health care,'' Lockwood explains. "Having a primary care physician is the single determinant in the cost of care.''
Instead of public meetings, Portman and some of his colleagues have been holding tele-town halls which allow them talk only by phone and screen callers, rather that risk angry confrontations that have dominated some face-to-face meetings.
Across Ohio, voters planned town halls – even if their members of Congress don't attend.

Bound In Public Review
An old adage says that mind has no boundary to move and to swing. It can set its wings free to fly beyond any horizon and it will not be a cliché to say that even the deepest passion of our mind acts as the same.

Pangaea Express: Saskatchewan moves from 12 Regional Health Authorities to 1
On December 4, 2017, Saskatchewan officially transitioned from 12 Regional Health Authorities (RHAs) into one (1) Saskatchewan Health Authority. Proclamation of the Health Authority Act legally transfers the operations and employees of the 12 former Regional Health Authorities to the Saskatchewan Health Authority. This is a consolidation of administration, not a centralization of services, with the goal to better co-ordinate between the health services provided in different areas of the province by increasing efficiencies and reduction in the duplication within the health system.
The Saskatchewan Health Authority head office will be located in Saskatoon, with a single Board of Directors with senior management in Regina, Prince Alberta and Moose Jaw as well as other major communities across the province. The Saskatchewan Health Authority will be the largest organization in Saskatchewan, employing more than 44,000 employees and physicians responsible for the delivery of high quality and timely health care for the entire province. The estimated potential savings associated with amalgamation are in the range of $10 - $20 million by 2018 - 19. The coming months will bring standardization in programming and services, through amalgamation from 12 public websites to the new Saskatchewan Health Authority website.
Interesting as many are moving to more regionalization, Saskatchewan is taking the opposite approach with centralizing. It will be interesting to see if the delivery of health care becomes more efficient and if they achieve their savings target.
For more information, please contact Suzanne Solman, Director, The Pangaea Group.

6 Reasons Why You Should Own a TeslaDustin Clowers Posted on 2018-03-02
The Tesla Model S has been on the road now for several years, and here in Vancouver we see them so often that we often forget how special these vehicles really are. Now, Tesla has come out with other models since the S, like the X, and the Model 3, but that doesn't mean the S is old news.
We constantly hear about Tesla in the news, whether it's the car hitting a new range milestone, backing up its crash safety rating with real world situations, there's argument for what the "best reason" to buy a Tesla is. How can a Tesla fit in with your everyday life in Vancouver? It depends on the priorities.
Priority #1: Safety
In the early days of the Model S, the NHTSA gave the sedan it's highest ever safety rating. More recently, the Model X was rated so high it's Fort Knox compared to many other SUVs on the market.
In the early days of the Model S, the NHTSA gave the sedan it's highest ever safety rating. More recently, the Model X was rated so high it's Fort Knox compared to any other SUV on the market.
Priority #2: Performance
If your performance is your priority, there really isn't a better option than a Tesla. The Model S P100D has quicker acceleration than million dollar supercars such as Ferrari, McLaren, and Lamborghini with a 0-60mph of just 2.5 seconds. To get any faster you have to sacrifice yourself to the 2 door sardine box that is the Ferrari LaFerrari or the Porsche 918 Spyder. No other 4 door grocery getter is even on the radar of a Tesla.
Priority #3: Technology
If you asked for a Tesla without Technology, you'd get a set of tires on rims and that's about it. Cutting edge innovation allowed Tesla to redefine how a car should behave on the road, how it interacts with the driver, and how it delivers you entertainment. There's no mistaking a Tesla when you see the ginormous screen dividing the center of the dash. Every piece of tech has a way of connecting with the driver and improving their experience on the road.
Autopilot is something that you'd expect in blockbuster movies set in the future, not your daily driver. It's an experience like no other and for the average driver, will be a case of mental gymnastics as you give up perceived control as you cruise through the city. Stuck in traffic and tired of inching a few feet at a time? Autopilot. Long straight highway on the way out of town? Autopilot. Not every Tesla has it, but we have one that does. Check it out here:
2015 Tesla Model S P85D With AutoPilot
While Autopilot certainly is the poster-child for Tesla and its tech accomplishments, there are so many features hidden behind the scenes that you wouldn't think twice about until they were pointed out to you. The fact that you can enter a Model X simply by walking towards it and getting in, allowing the wireless key to automatically open and close the door behind you without any direct input will leave you speechless. Or perhaps it's the fact that a Model S with air suspension equipped will automatically raise and lower it's high based on locations where you've raised it before (Driveways, speedbumps, poor road conditions).
Priority #4: Styling
What's a car with insane safety, extreme performance, and cutting-edge tech if it doesn't look good? A trope with electric cars is that they must look ridiculous in some way. Whether it be designed to look too futuristic that it's satirical, or simple design keys are missed for the sake of being "different." It's far too easy to pick electric cars out, when they should blend in just like any other car. Tesla knocked that trope with the sleek design of the first Tesla Roadster, picking up the body of a Lotus Elise sports car. Tesla furthered the look with the Model S, designing a sleek 4 door sedan that holds up with BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, and even Maserati.
Priority #5: 100% Electric
No lawnmower range generator, no hybrid drive, just pure electricity. With an average range of around 400km on the Model S, it is more than enough to get you around your day to day appointments with plenty to spare. Now sure, you may be thinking that the recharge is where you lose the edge on a gas-powered vehicle, but with a huge array of Supercharging stations around BC, Canada, and the United Sates, you're covered. As electric cars become more and more prominent around the world, the concentration of fast electric vehicle charge points will only increase.
You have the benefit of world changing technology without the world ending damage that comes from a gas or diesel-powered engine. Vancouver couldn't be a better host city for a Tesla owner.
Priority #6: Free Gas and (almost) free maintenance!
Just because a Tesla is expensive, doesn't mean it has to cost a lot. Every year an average driver spends around $3000 on fuel for a small car, up to $5000 for a truck or SUV. Throughout the year that same driver spends approximately $2500 - $4000 on regular maintenance and vehicle expenses. Tesla laughs at those figures. An electric engine not only cuts the need for fuel fill-ups, but the scheduled oil changes, coolant flushes, and even regular brake replacement. A set of regenerative brakes on a Tesla can last up to 125,000kms with simple care. While they may not be the best car to tinker with in your driveway, our Service Centre is ready to assist in any way.
As Vancouver's largest indipendent used Tesla dealer, let us help you drive into a better future together. With better understanding of Tesla Models, you can make an informed decision on what the future holds for you. Do you know what Tesla model works best for you?

The British Retail Consortium (BRC) has hit out at a government analysis of the retail sector for failing to assess the potential impact of Brexit.
Brexit secretary David Davis had promised to deliver a series of "impact assessments" covering a range of sectors, from retail to aviation, tourism and defence.
However, the Department for Exiting the European Union has instead published a number of reports giving an overview of each sector and how they fit into the current EU-wide regulatory framework.
The 15-page Retail Sector Report gives a brief introduction to retail and its effect on other sectors, the economy and employment in the UK. It goes on to examine current regulations, and how trade is facilitated between the UK and other EU countries.
But there is no detailed analysis of the potential impact different Brexit outcomes could have on retail. A section on "sector views" and an annex on stakeholder engagement in the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy have been redacted.
In response, the BRC has lashed out at the government for failing to provide a clear enough picture of what would happen to the sector in the event of a hard Brexit.
William Bain, the trade body's European and international policy adviser, said: "The government's sectoral analysis on retail offers an account of the importance the retail industry has for the UK economy on jobs, growth and investment, and in supplying goods and services for consumers.
"It does not, however, provide any data or analysis at all on the future if the basis of the UK's trading and commercial relationship with the EU changes."
The BRC has previously argued that a hard Brexit would have major implications for consumers when it comes to prices, choice and availability of goods.
"Losing reciprocal tariff-free trade with the EU could raise prices for food and other imported consumer goods," said Bain. "Without a deal to minimise non-tariff barriers, consumers face delays on the supply of goods.
"The retail industry would [also] be seriously affected without access to labour from the EU, with a range of skills, to get goods on the shelves and out to consumers.
"We want to engage further with government, parliament, and other decision-makers in these next vital months, to demonstrate what is missing in this document – that consumers would face the biggest hit on prices, choice, and availability from a no deal or weak deal Brexit."

There are a lot of benefits to working from home, but the activity in a busy household isn't always conducive to getting things done. When a corner of the kitchen or even a separate room just won't cut it, an outdoor office shed or cabin offers a private, convenient alternative workspace.
Efficient Home Offices
If you're a business owner, freelancer or remote worker, turning a cabin into a home office can boost your productivity by freeing you from the noise, interruptions, and temptations of home. At the same time, you'll still be nearby for your kids or elderly family members while working in your outdoor office shed.
A cabin can help you expand your business by providing a quiet place to hold teleconferences, space to store your files, and a professional setting in which to meet clients.
The Home Office and Nook cabin are ideal for an efficient, streamlined outdoor office space. If you need more storage space, the loft in the Vermont Cottage provides plenty. Check out our prefab offices, plans and office shed kits.
Inspiring Studios or Workshops
For creative endeavors such as writing, painting or woodworking, you need not only space for work and storage, but also an environment that inspires you. With their charming, graceful designs, the Apple Blossom cabin and Potting Fort are perfect for sparking the imagination. For a more rustic, close-to-nature ambiance, consider the Writers Haven.
A separate studio or workshop offers a secure place to keep your in-progress projects where no one will disturb or accidentally damage them. It's also practical as a photography darkroom or soap making studio, or for other hobbies that involve chemicals you don't want around your kids or pets. In most cabins, you can add a sink for easy clean-up.
Whether you're a professional or hobbyist, a prefab garden office, prefab studio or workshop gives you the space and ideal environment you need to get some real work done.

Hi guys,
Not a blog post filled with insight and knowledge - I just realised that there was such a thing as claiming your blog on Bloglovin', thanks to Marie :)
SO here goes nothing -
^^ This is apparently the magic link that helps me do it!
Hello! I think there might be something wrong with this, it should appear as a link to a web page, and you shouldn't see the code around it. If you go back into the post, and top left click HTML next to Compose, you should be able to paste the code in there and blogger will recognise it as code rather than text. Hope that works!
