The weakness of the infrastructure investment lowers rates
9/20/2016 0:00
BAGHDAD / Imad Emirate
AFESD Iraqi economy, experience has shown that the domestic savings to accommodate the investments needed to achieve the targeted growth rates in the real production sector, and may not be production enough to achieve this goal, especially when it collides development effort to allocate resources in the budget to finance current consumption, lack of investment, which hampers the growing economy's ability to provide the elements of self-growth.
In this regard, the economic academic d said. Awad Fadhil Ismail: It may be difficult to say that whenever Turn savings rate of increase indicates that the increase allocated to the accumulation of physical capital resources and thus increasing the ability of the economy to bring about a change in the construction of national production, confirming that the decline in production capacities reflecting reduced the effectiveness of domestic investment, adding Ismail interview »morning», said the low rates of investment in the productive sectors in Iraq always come because of the weakness of the infrastructure such as transport and communications, telecommunications, the lack of technical staffs skilled and lack of know-how in the field of organization, management and misuse of scarce resources Almtahh.wachar that the expected result of lower investment efficiency is high evident in production costs hurt toward paying local prices to rise and increased inflationary pressures and weak export capacity due to lower competitive position of local products in the international markets.
He said Ismail that the economic present system is accounted for by a bundle of contradictions between theory and practice, and gaining these contradictions president dimension to the tasks required for the development of the supply side and diversification, pointing out that the current consumption depletes most of the fruits of the oil boom, which provides funding for the development process as signs palaces severe between different production activities.
He argued: that the decline in the efficiency of investment rates are leading to the dwindling power of relics diffusivity of investment spending in the overall development of production, as well as the development of the Iraqi economy, which is witnessing an imbalance and a clear pattern, you will not receive the attention enough to tame the local potentials as quickly as possible to accelerate growth, indicating the importance of exploiting the opportunity cost borne by the national economy and employ them in optimizing the use and display of early availability of financial Aloverat.
Ismail and concluded by saying that to get out of trouble to bow to dysfunctional development of production and a subsidiary of the oil sector is not to wrestle revenue about figures but will remain dependent to a large extent the viability supported by economic policy makers of the will to solve these contradictions, stressing that the resources available to the country of abundance, but misuse has led to greatly complicate the economic landscape in general.

It's not denial. I'm just selective about the reality I accept.
The Art of Losing
In Four Short Weeks | 2017 | Last Sushi
-Bill Watterson
-Bill Watterson
Daniel comes to our door a little before nine in the morning that we could get to Mass MoCA when it opens. Despite stopping for sandwiches, we arrive at the museum fifteen minutes before it opens.
Amber and I dozed in the back seat. Where usually there would be Cannibal Corpse, Die Antwoord, or an episode of Harmontown coming from the speakers, today there was only silence. Before nodding off, I asked Kest what sort of music she likes - she will be taking Daniel away in less than a month and I still know so little about her. She answered that she likes circus music and this seemed obvious.
Before Daniel picked us up, I told Amber that I've felt this urge to discover and describe their flaws. She astutely fingered this as the anger stage of grief.
Until the museum opens, we go to a nearby café to properly caffeinate Daniel. He buys Amber a slice of coffeecake, which I munch on when she goes to the bathroom.
Kest sits across from me, a dapper brimmed hat on her head, a silk scarf around her neck pinned with a button whose text I do not get close enough to read, her perfectly round spectacles. I don't actually dislike her in the least, I just resent that she represents the catalyst finally bringing Daniel to new climes.
It is tedious to read a detailing of someone else's trip to a museum, so I will be brief. Kest all but runs to an exhibit, which I take as pretty but meaningless mobiles by the thousands, strung from the ceiling to floor next to a cloud of chandelier crystal. It is only once I notice that guns predominate the mobiles and racial stereotype jockeys hide above the cloud that Daniel explains the whole piece is a commentary on police violence against African American youth. I wonder if this meaning is why Kest was so urgent in getting here or if she merely appreciates the spectacle.
Learning how to use my digital SLR camera on the exhibits gives a secondary focus to this trip. My primary focus remains staying in this moment with Daniel with an acknowledgement that they will soon be vanishingly rare. Kest uses my point-and-shoot to record architecture and pieces reflected in other pieces. I want to chronicle my friends and this day - I do not necessarily care about clever shots.
Kest uses as much of the day at the museum as she can. She spends what feels like the better part of an hour in the first room and moves only slightly faster as she progresses, taking in the art. Daniel follows her in taciturn devotion. She grants us permission to explore the museum at our own pace, but the art is not my explicit purpose in being here. Any time I have time for the drive and the price of admission, I can visit Mass MoCA, but it will not be this day with them.
I am the one who eventually introduces the topic of having lunch. Kest is too giddy with the art, Daniel is too quiet, and Amber is perfectly willing to let me play the role of philistine, valuing bodily satisfaction over aesthetic appreciation. Over lunch, because I find the topic interesting for its social eccentricity, I end up talking about the origin and cultural impact of RealDolls. Later, Kest apologies for being geeky about dinosaurs, but I find most things can be forgiven by one who holds forth about sex dolls in earshot of children.
Later, we end up in a dim room with several boxes featuring punched out dots approximating angular galaxies. I instantly collapse on a provided beanbag chair and, soon, Amber collapses on my chest. There is another beanbag on the opposite side of the room, but Daniel and Kest forsake this for sitting on their heels ten feet away. Until other patrons come in, it is as though the rushing of time has stopped. We have nowhere else to be, no other exhibit Kest needs to see before the museum closes. But we are not together. We are in our separate boxes of stars, impenetrable and drifting in the darkness.
When Kest is finally satisfied that she has seen all she needed and the museum is closing in fifteen minutes, Daniel and Amber go off in search of coffee for him. I connect with Kest in the coatroom, explaining the location of our respective partners. We go outside to meet up with them, but Kest halts me. There is an outdoor exhibit she wanted to see since she has the time. I say that I'm game and ask the location or name. When she calls it something like "gold in the cracks," I direct her to the pavement beneath her feet, where an artist has filled in the fissures with gold epoxy.
Amber and I doze again on the drive home, in the quiet and the dark. It is New Year's Eve and this trip was only meant to be the first course. I had intermittently been messaging Kristina, with whom we intended to connect for the festivities. I had told her about Daniel's impending exodus partly to share my grief, partly for spite, partly because I doubt he intended to do so himself, and partly because I knew it assured she would show up to one of the last occasions Daniel would attend as a resident of the Hudson Valley. He wanted to go to the restaurant Pakt, which he tenders dearer than his former beloved Duo. From all I could see, nothing more than a usual dinner was happening for New Year's Eve, but it is what Daniel said he would be doing, so it is what would be done. Next year, he will not be a factor. I say to Kristina that I do not want to ring in the New Year at Pakt, but that I expect Daniel to excuse himself by ten. Amber and I arrive first. Kest made clear that they would arrive sometime after eight, but I grumble that I am not too optimistic. We've spent ten hours together. I can spring back with a plan and three hours dozing in a car. Daniel - and I assume Kest - need more recharging.
When we arrive, there is a table with a place card reading "Daniel," but I know it cannot be our Daniel. There are too many seats and it speaks to a level of preparedness and certainty that does not indicate him. Indeed, woman with bright hair and their male companions soon assume it.
While waiting, and intercut with my practicing my photographic skills on her, I tell Kristina how the day went and bring her up to speed on Daniel. I don't know much more, detailing instead my grieving process. "I've messaged a couple of people online, just to remind myself there are other people. When one guy I didn't message contacted me, I freaked out a little because I didn't feel at all ready." This is bargaining. It is not acceptance.
Daniel and Kest show up fashionably late, just after we gave up and ordered. The waiter seems to apologize to Daniel for letting us order, not realizing for whom we waited. As with Duo, as with the coffee shop, as with all other places Daniel frequented in search of food or drink, he made an impression on those who saw him daily. He will of course not tell them he is going - he was reluctant to tell me when he did - and they may not notice his absence for months, when someone hazily asks after the dashing eccentric who occupies the corner table for hours at a time. The other person will squint their eyes against the sands of time, trying to recall the last time they refilled Daniel's coffee. He will maybe be a story, definitely a memory.
It seems the waiter brings Daniel a French press full of tea without him ordering it.
I fear all this sounds dour and dark, but it felt mostly normal. Kristina opened up Amber's gift to her - a pineapple t-shirt - and has Daniel open the gift she got for him - a pineapple censer. Amber later reports that Kest seemed bemused by the curiosity of this, the evident inside joke not explained between us.
After devouring a shank of lamb, Daniel announces that Kest and he will be going. I look at my watch, then thrust it at Kristina. "9:58! I said you would leave by ten," I explain.
I am uncertain what to make of Daniel's expression then, but I choose to believe he was amused.
We remaining three go to Uptown Kingston, there to huddle against the cold. Kristina leaves a touch after eleven to see a boy who may be her boyfriend again, or he may not be. She says she may come back before the ball drop or call Amber if she can meet us for our traditional midnight brunch, but I know she won't for the same reason I knew Daniel would leave at ten. I know them. I know their drives and needs. It is how I love them, by understanding them in increasing millimeters so that I can predict their actions. It is how I keep from being disappointed, if not hurt. Owing to these factors, adding in these influences, understanding this history, my loved one will move like a clockwork angel. So, even when they leave, it is not unexpected, only gears turning. Only a predictable reaction to a new line of code. I can't be angry or depressed. I can't deny who they are, can't bargain away that I know in my bones. I just have to accept them for all they are and aren't.
The ball drops to much shouting. Fireworks explode. I kiss Amber. She asks if we are going to our traditional brunch. I look at this crowd of strangers. With only the two of us (and a belly stuffed with catfish), I'd rather go home and start the new year fresh for the challenge.
Soon in Xenology: Faces. Daniel leaving. New friends.

Depending on the outcome a new PR is better. well after some further offline discussion it is clear that I still misunderstood what the guide was saying. "Chain of compilers" does not mean a list of available compilers like "sunpro gcc" but rather a chain of tools that work together like "distcc gcc". I have added an additional note to the documentation to help clarify this for users such as myself who are easily confused. I'll close this PR and bring up the broader question of how to allow a list of available compilers on tech-pkg@

Sheridan Boulevard shut down Monday morning between West Fourth and West Fifth avenues because of a water main break.
Denver Water said a 12-inch main broke, forcing the closure of all lanes.
Crews worked on the area throughout the day and were anticipating a midnight reopening of Sheridan. However, late Monday, Denver Water said on its Twitter account that it anticipated one lane in each direction would be open through the morning rush hour.
The area affected required that the road be repaved, according to Denver Water officials. Drivers were advised to take alternate routes. Regional Transportation District bus routes on Sheridan were also slowed by detours in the area.

text: HOUNDSds Patrick M Brooklyn HOUNDSds is the recording project (and sometimes band) of multi-instrumentalist Patrick McIntyre. As HOUNDSds, McIntyre uses modest means to record lush guitar-pop. His style has its roots in the classic sounds of the 60's, but that vital decade's influence is heard as filtered through a second important influence: the 80's. To date, McIntyre has released several EPs as HOUNDSds including Conduct (2013, self-released), Phone Thou (2012, Chill Mega Chill Records), Los Dos (2011, self-released), and The Technology of Love (2010, self-released). As a live act, HOUNDSds has played several venues around New York, notably the Cake Shop, Muchmore's, Big Snow Buffalo Lodge (RIP), the Paper Box, & the Ho_Se. HOUNDSds has contributed to several compilation albums, including Disposable America's Flowers and Bees (2014), Hearing Gold's Vacation Spirit (2012), both volumes of Chill Mega Chill's Halloween comp, The Chiller (2011, 2012), the Sunchoke artist network's Winter Warmer (2012). Currently HOUNDSds is preparing a full-length follow up to Conduct, set to be released on cassette sometime in 2015.

Hello all, and Happy new year.
Here is what I have, I shot a wedding with 3 cams. The third was a static cam just to catch wedding party entering. ceremony was approx. 25 minutes. I forgot about the camera (very hectic wedding) and basically recorded approx. 2.5 hours worth of crap. I want to trim the huge file down to just the 10-15 minutes needed before loading card for editing. I basically have a folder with 3 files..cam 1, cam 2 and cam 3. I am googling answers as well. I dont want to store hours worth of fottage for 10 minutes of usable footage to make a long story short.

Focus on population growth takes attention off basic needs like food
Friday December 7 2012
The recent State of the World Population 2012 report of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) dedicates a sizeable chunk to the concept of "the unmet need for family planning".
Although the report affirms the Programme of Action of the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD), which recognised individuals' right to determine the number and spacing of their children and infertile couples' right to be assisted to have children, it is heavily tilted towards arresting population growth.
The report, therefore, resonates with the aspirations of Kenya's Sessional Paper No 3 of 2012, which aims to control the growth of the country's population to an average of 2.6 children from the current 4.6.
The Population Fund and Kenya's National Council for Population and Development fear that rapid population growth is hindering development and must be arrested if Kenya is to achieve the Millennium Development Goals and Vision 2030.
These fears run counter to equally persuasive views that a robust population growth is important for development.
As recently as August 11, the former Prime Minister of Singapore — one of the so-called "Asian Tigers" that we frequently quote for being at par with Kenya at independence, but which is now way ahead development-wise — cautioned Singaporeans about their current anti-child mindset.
Singaporeans needed to marry and have children if they did not want the country to fold up, Mr Lee Kuan Yew warned. In his annual National Day dinner speech to residents of Tanjong Pagar and Tiong Bahru, he said that Singaporeans were not reproducing enough, and the country needed migrants as a temporary solution.
But in the long run, mindsets must change, and the trend of declining birth rates needs to be reversed.
"If we go on like that, this place will fold up because there will be no original citizens to form the majority," Mr Lee said.
In a recent public lecture at the Strathmore University, titled: "Towards an understanding of sub-Saharan African fertility transition with particular reference to Kenya", Prof Seamus Grimes of the Institute for Business, Social Science and Public Policy at the National University of Ireland, Galway, poked holes in the UNFPA's "unmet needs for family planning" concept.
He quoted the Population and Development Review of the Population Council, whose editor, Paul Demeny, once ridiculed the "unmet need" concept, asking: "Are we trying to suggest that two billion people in the past 30 years were added to the world's population because their parents were too stupid to figure out what to do?"
Claiming the "unmet needs" theory is based on "flawed thinking" and "the most arrogant part of externally imposed development strategies", Prof Grimes told his audience that, compared to "the need for food, water, medical care and fuel…, the need for contraception was very small in poor countries."
Recent scholarship, he said, had criticised the "unmet need" theory, which reflects not just women who want contraception, but also "those women who require motivation to want what they are presumed to need, suggesting a usage consistent with a very broad or very paternalistic definition of 'need'".
Prof Grimes cited scholars who believe that a reduction in the focus of family planning programmes on population growth will allow more attention to be paid to other important areas such as child and maternal mortality, the timing of first births, and the prevention of sexually transmitted disease.
Acknowledging that the persistent relatively high levels of fertility and population growth in many countries in sub-Saharan Africa are considered by many policymakers as a major obstacle towards economic progress on the continent, he, however, found policymakers' preoccupation with high rates of population growth in the poorest regions of the world "ironic in a world which is increasingly characterised by rapidly diffusing below replacement fertility, declining population rates and ageing populations."
Quoting from W.T.S. Gould's paper, "Ideology and data analysis in African population policies", Prof Grimes attributed predominantly negative interpretation of family size in poor countries to poor quality policy formulation based on questionable demographic analysis that has been influenced by ideological considerations.
Fear immigration
In a claim that is evident in xenophobic acts in the West, where anti-immigrant laws are evolving fast with strict curbs on the number of immigrants that can be allowed and visa fees that are constituently being adjusted upwards, Prof Grimes drew his audience's attention to the West's view that "population growth in the South is problematic and needs to be controlled, partly in fear of high rates of immigration from the South."
Despite attempts to de-link family planning from the politically-incorrect population control, this has not happened. The July conference in London, sponsored by the Gates Foundation and UK's Department for International Development (DfID), where billions in pledges were made to meet the cost of modern contraceptives in developing countries, features prominently in UNFPA's 2012 report.
The summit won promises of $4.6 billion (Sh386 billion) from donors and developing countries to provide modern contraception (coils, pills, injectables, implants and condoms) to an extra 120 million women by 2020.
Says Prof Grimes: "It is useful to consider this level of funding in the context of total development aid to Africa, which amounted to $47.9 billion in 2010."
He noted that, within the social sector of aid, which constituted 39.1 per cent of the total in 2010, population and reproductive health, which made up 13 per cent of the social sector in 2009, was the only sector experiencing consistent growth since 1997.
Prof Grimes said that while aid for the social sector of health fell from almost 16 per cent in 2005 to less than 12 per cent in 2009, population programmes comprised 35.3 per cent of total aid from the US in 2010 compared to only 7.3 per cent on health.

I was planning to give you a summary or at least an inside of this article but it is so good that I do recommend reading it all. The article is very much focused on the situation of patent administration and its process and so, the situation experienced by the pharmaceutical industry when filing an application at the Brazilian Instituto Nacional da Propiedade Industrial (INPI). The article however covers some other interesting issues, such as:
- It explains the so-called 'neodevelopmental patent regimes' which goals is to facilitate to nationals the access to knowledge and so encouraging innovations; yet, it also illustrates the political contradictions between these objectives.
- It covers the fact that Brazil did not protect pharmaceutical products (patent was not granted to this type of products and/or processes) and so, it needed to reform its law and legislation due to its obligation as a member of the WTO. In the same line it tries to bring awareness between strong protection and its relation to high prices and hence, its effect on access to medicines.
The author goes on to study (in depth) this policy: how it is designated to operate and how it functions in practice. At the end he states that this health-oriented patent policy "has become fraught with tensions" and explains the conflict between these two institutions (INPI and ANVISA) and so, he refers to the fact that they have become weaker.
This article is a significant contribution made by Dr Ken to our IP Latin America community.

D&R Boatworld provides outstanding customer service to each and every customer who visits their showrooms and this is reflected in their superior customer service index ratings. "I personally call each customer after a boat sale to make sure everything went well," Robert Barone said.
While other businesses talk about mobile repair services, D&R Boatworld has a mobile repair service for more than 40 years and describes it as "its biggest competitive advantage." This unique service brings factory-trained technicians to service customers' boats in six fully stocked trucks.
Over the years, D&R Boatworld has worked diligently to get its name in front of prospective customers, using location, participation in local and national boat shows, and selected advertising as its primary vehicles. It also host an annual Labor Day Open House that brings in customers.
In commenting on D&R Boatworld's operations, "This dealer focuses on providing superior customer service that results in a profitable business and plenty of satisfied boaters."

This is a copy of the article that was generated by Boat & Motor Magazine in 2004 naming D & R Boat World as Dealer of the Year.
When Boat & Motor Dealer Magazine selected D&R Boatworld as the winner of its 2004 "Dealer of the Year" award, it wasn't because of the proud history of the oldest boat dealer in New Jersey. No, it was because this dealership's focus on customer service and attention to details has produced a profitable business and plenty of satisfied boaters. 2005 "TOP 100 DEALERS OF THE YEAR" RANKED BY BOATING INDUSTRY MAGAZINE. D&R RANKED 61 OUT OF 3300 DEALERS IN NORTH AMERICA!
D&R Boats began operations in 1956. At the time, Eisenhower was president, jet airplanes were still a work in progress, the idea of putting a man on the moon was a joke, and wireless phones belonged in Dick Tracy comic strips—not in the hands of most people in the world.
Donald Barone and Robert Barone are the current owners of D&R Boatworld, having taken over the dealership from their father, Dominic, who started the business in 1956. With little book knowledge, but enormous passion and enthusiasm for boating, Dominic Barone, a World War II veteran who served in the Coast Guard, started up his boat dealership in Green Brook, New Jersey. Barone lived barely a mile from his office, and spent each and every day trying to make his dealership better. He taught his two sons, Donald and Robert—who currently own and operate D&R Boatworld—everything he knew about superior service and attention to detail.
Dominic guided his dealership through boom times and recessions, energy crises and military stand-offs. He expanded by opening two other locations, but he succeeded by practicing honesty with customers, professionalism with manufacturers, and integrity with both parties.
The business was doing quite well until the early 1990s, when a worldwide recession hit, causing a falloff in boat sales, and prompting Dominic Barone to examine his business. A Sea Ray dealer for more than four decades, Barone asked whether he could afford the overhead associated with three stores within 40 miles of each other. He wondered if it was worthwhile to remain a Sea Ray dealer if the manufacturer was getting out of fishing boats, and its territories were being emasculated.
Eventually, Dominic Barone decided that he couldn't afford the overhead from his two other stores, so he sold them. He broke up his marriage to Sea Ray to offer a "Boat Mall" of complimentary boat lines. He didn't want to compete with in-state dealers, so he not only talked product with prospective manufacturers, he also negotiated territory.
Because D&R Boats had such an excellent reputation, boat and engine manufacturers were eager to talk with Barone. After much discussion, D&R Boats chose three new boat manufacturers—Robalo fishing boats, Crownline bowriders, cuddy cabins, and crusiers, and Cruiser Yachts. The dealer needed to be where the boaters were, so in addition to Green Brook, it leased sales facilities at Normandy Beach on the Jersey Shore in 1994 and Liberty Landing Marina in Jersey City, New Jersey, on the mouth of the Hudson River in New York Harbor, in 1998.
When Dominic Barone passed away five years ago, the dealership was in good hands as his sons had gradually taken on many responsibilities. Today, Donald and Robert Barone manage D&R Boatworld from the main dealership in Green Brook. If their father were alive today, he would probably say his sons have learned well what integrity, honesty, and professionalism mean to a boat dealership, and these are the main reasons why D&R Boatworld is our 2004 "Dealer of the Year."
Secrets to success
With three locations, D&R Boat-world sells a "complementary line of boats." Its Robalo fishing boats cater to different customers based on price and equipment. "We wanted to offer our fishing customers a series of options to fit their price and equipment needs and wants," Robert Barone said. "This is what the Angler and Robalo boat lines accomplished."
The Crownline boats are primarily bowriders, cuddy cabins, and cruisers for the weekend boaters who enjoy waterskiing or just cruising the harbor. These are 18-ft. to 31-ft. boats that D&R sells at all three of its locations.
The biggest boats D&R Boatworld sells are Cruiser Yachts. "We sell 28-ft. to 54-ft. cruisers from the Liberty Landing Marina site, which includes a complete sales showroom for new and previously-owned boats," Robert Barone said.
Buying a boat from D&R Boatworld is more than just signing paperwork, exchanging keys, and offering handshakes. The focus is on providing superior customer service.
D&R Boatworld has a fully staffed service department operating at its Green Brook location. Superior service begins when a person enters the dealership. The Barones develop a personal relationship with each new or existing customer. Care for the customer manifests itself in the dealer's hands-on approach. "I personally call each and every customer after a boat sale to make sure everything went well, and they know we will take care of them if anything goes wrong," Robert Barone said.
Boat delivery is more than just a part of doing business at D&R Boatworld. "We have three full-time employees whose sole jobs are to deliver boats to customers and take whatever time is needed to explain the boat's operation," Robert Barone said. He added that one of these three persons is a licensed captain who spends one to two days with the new owners of boats 37-ft or longer. The captain is a 25-year employee of D&R Boatworlds who got his captain's license as part of D&R Boatworld's education and training program, Barone added.
D&R Boatworld's focus on the customer also results in exceptional customer service index (CSI) ratings. This year, Cruiser Yachts awarded the dealership its highest CSI rating and D&R Boatworld was among the top five dealers for CSI ratings with all its manufacturers.
But the dealership's best customer service tool is it mobile repair shop. Robert Barone described this service as D&R Boatworld's "biggest competitive advantage." The genesis of this idea came from the Green Brook location, which is on a busy highway, has 1,500 feet of space to display new and used boats, and has a full service repair area. "What we don't have is water for testing boats," Barone said.
Recognizing this limitation, the dealer knew that it had to come up with a unique value-added concept to hold customers—it decided on a mobile repair team that would fix/repair customers' boats at home or on the water. Customers didn't need to place their boats on trailers and haul them down to the dealership. They didn't need to take a day off to have their boats serviced. No, they simply call the Mobile Service.
In the 40-plus years since the service started, it is been a cornerstone of the dealer's operation. Today, the mobile repair service has six trucks, each of which is staffed by a certified, factory-trained professional and stocked with an extensive inventory of the most needed parts, such as pumps, batteries, docklines, propellers, and so forth.
The accessories store at Green Brook stocks close to 2,000 items and has a loyal clientele that shops year-round.
Superior customer service begins when a customer calls the dealer and receives a cheerful greeting. "there's a real benefit—customer satisfaction." By treating customers fairly, offering customers the products they want and need, and "going that extra mile" to service customers' boats, D&R Boatworld builds up loyalty.
When other dealers shy away from taking trade-ins, D&R embraces them. "Anytime we get a used boat, it means that we've made a trade-in on a new boat, so this is good, " Robert Barone notes. The dealer reconditions each boat traded in, and sends it to the service department for tune-ups and repairs. "We treat each used boat customer the same way we treat a new one, so there is no difference in our service or attitude," Barone said.
Although D&R Boatworld only has a fully staffed and operating service department at its Green Brook location, the mobile repair service and close proximity of Green Brook to the other two locations (only 90 minutes way) make repair services a real "star" in the dealership's operations. "We have a fully-staffed service department whose motto is 'We service what we sell,' and this applies to both new and used boats," Robert Barone noted.
The accessories store stocks close to 2,000 items, the store has a loyal clientele of its own." Some of the more popular items the store sells are water skis, water toys, PFDs, electronics, and even trailer parts and fiberglass repair equipment.
D&R also has a parts department that is open six days a week and responds to phone and Internet orders. The parts store sells engines and parts for Mercury Outboards, OMC, Yamaha, Volvo Penta, Johnson, Evinrude, and other engines.
Industry involvement D&R Boatworld is the oldest family-owned boat dealership in New Jersey, it is very active in the local Rotary Club, is a member and strong supporter of the New Jersey Marine Manufacturers Association, and is a member of MRAA. As for current national industry issues, Barone is enthusiastic about the Grow Boating initiatives, perturbed about the Mercury engine dumping case, and iconoclastic in his dealer-manufacturer agreement views.
Finally, D&R Boatworld appreciates receiving Boat & Motor Dealer's "Dealer of the Year" award, and views it as an important stepping stone toward celebrating 50 years of service to boaters in 2006.

Understanding Your Credit Score
Your credit score summarizes your credit risk based on a snapshot of your credit standing at a particular point in time. It isn't so much a grade, it's more like a grade point average. Think of it as an overall assessment of your financial responsibility, one that influences the amount of credit available to you and the conditions you may have to agree to in order to get that credit.
One major misconception is that people often confuse credit report with credit score. A credit report is an objective history of who you've been as a borrower -- it passes no judgment. The credit score is a subjective evaluation of that history. Whether it's a credit card, car loan, or mortgage, lenders want to know your level of risk, and how likely it is they'll get paid on time.
Understanding the Language
The terms "credit score," "credit rating," and "FICO score" are often used interchangeably. This is basically correct. FICO simply refers to Fair Isaac Corporation, the company that originally developed a 'score' method of rating consumers' credit histories.
Today, the three major reporting agencies (Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion) each report their own credit scores. There's the Plus Score, calculated by Experian; the Empirica Score, offered through TransUnion; and Equifax's Beacon Score. And though lenders use different factors to rate your overall credit worthiness it basically comes down to whether you pay -- and pay on time -- and whether creditors have reason to believe you might be overextending yourself. The more responsible you are with credit, the higher your score will be.
The Five Elements that make up your score
1. Payment History = 35 Percent
Are you paying your bills as agreed? The most recent six months have the greatest impact on your score. The highest weight is placed on the highest payment. Usually, this is your mortgage, next would be a car payment, followed by student loan or credit card payments. Bankruptcies, judgments, liens, and collections/charge-offs will negatively impact your score, as will late payments. The severity of the delinquency is determined by the amount, how much time has passed, and the number of times you were late on an account. It could be 30, 60, or 90 days late.
2. Balances Carried = 30 Percent
This is the actual dollar amounts you owe on various accounts in relation to how much credit you have available. You want this ratio as low as possible. Keep in mind, mortgages and installment loans are not factored into this as much because they are not really a credit line. FYI: If you're thinking of applying for a home loan, don't pay off collections or judgments prior to qualifying. By paying off the collection, you are, in effect, starting the collection process all over again; accordingly, your score will take a big hit. Pay off the collection at closing. Once you have the loan, you can handle a few months of a lower score.
3. Credit History = 15 Percent
How long have you been credit worthy? If you have a long history of making payments as agreed, it will help your credit score. But this can also hurt older people. By closing old accounts, you are removing all those years of payment history from the credit-scoring model, which is why experts urge you keep accounts you've managed efficiently open. FYI: One thing lenders had done in the past with younger borrowers is to have the parents add the child as an "authorized user" on to a credit card account they have had for 20 years. This immediately upped the credit score of the child because he/she had "inherited" a long credit history. However, now credit bureaus ignore most "authorized user" accounts when figuring out a borrower's credit score.
4. Mix of Accounts = 10 Percent
Ideally, the credit bureaus like to see a mortgage, an auto loan, and three to five credit cards. For a borrower, if you have a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), it will be treated as a revolving account unless it is greater than $40,000. If it is greater than $40,000, it will be considered a mortgage. Each inquiry will take points off of your score. Multiple inquiries for a mortgage within 45 days will only count as one inquiry (the fact that you're "shopping around" is a given). Likewise, multiple inquiries for a car loan within 45 days will count as only one inquiry. Only the first 10 inquiries count each year. Inquiries for a job, insurance or utilities, an account review, a promotion (pre-approval offers in the m /ail), or your own personal review won't affect your credit score.
5. Facing the Consequences
When it comes to mortgages, car loans, and credit cards, what you don't know can certainly hurt you. Your score is a reflection of your actions: you choose the behavior and you get the consequence.
· 30 days late on a payment can damage your credit score by at least 50 or more points;
· 60 or 90 days late, or a 30-day late payment on multiple accounts can drop your score by 100+ points;
· Balances of more than 40 Percent of your credit limit affects your score by as much as 100 points;
· If multiple credit cards are maxed out or approaching maximum balances, your credit score will be diminished by at least 80+ points.
The above details are for your information only. D&R Boatworld is not responsible for any consequences resulting from this article.
The Value of Buying Pre-Owned Boats
If you're looking for used boats in New Jersey or other kinds of marine deals, check out what D&R Boat World can offer. We help customers get their hands on the boats of their dreams for a good price, like Buddy Davis Boats in New Jersey. We have a wide range of brand selections, as well as pre-owned models that can help save money.
Lower Sticker Price
One of the biggest reasons that buyers love the certified pre-owned boat program is that they can really benefit from lower sale prices. Experts often explain how a new boat loses 25 percent to 33 percent of its value after it's sold. By letting someone else take that financial hit, the pre-owned boat customer comes along and gets a boat that's practically as good as new, for a fraction of the price.
Lower Cost of Ownership
This bump down in value also affects the insurance costs that are needed to keep the boat over time. It helps the owner to worry a little bit less about any incidents of minor damage to the boat. It basically gives someone a better way to fit one of these purchases into a budget. Why pay a lot more for something that came direct from the factory?
Tested Technology
Another reason to buy pre-owned is that these boats have already seen the water, and so they are, in a way, vetted for some of the problems that occur directly after manufacture.
The idea is that you might get a red flag about issues that consumer reporting venues often talk about with these kinds of large vehicles. If there is a major defect that often manifests early in the life of the boat, chances are this problem has already been smoothed out by the original owner and the manufacturer and dealer. Experts talk about the "bathtub curve" — the idea that a lot of problems happen right after sale, then decrease, until the boat has aged to 10 or 20 years, where failures and parts problems will tend to recur.
This idea works for small features as well — anything from navigational and operational instruments to light switches and hooks and fasteners. Basically, you have a good basis for assuming that everything on the boat was made solid and durable and stands the test of time.
Of course you need to prepare for the long-term. Pre-owned boats will be aging, and it's important to secure plans for eventual repair and get proper insurance. With any pre-owned deal, you have more money left over to maintain your boat right to make sure everything is properly set up for you to confidently take your boat out on the water.

We have had some discussion about whether an explicit line break or page
break should be a block separator or whitespace. I think both are wrong.
Both can appear in the middle of a hyphenated word. In that context, they
are clearly not block separators, and not normal whitespace, either. They
may have to be treated as optional whitespace. That means that during
reformatting in the absence of a hyphen, they are spaces, and in the
presence of a hyphen, they vanish from view, just as an optional hyphen
would vanish.
Since they don't behave that way in ASCII text editors, I have gotten in
the habit of leaving a space at the end of every line in line-oriented
text. Editors frequently throw away line ends when reformatting a paragraph.
