Cape Air Pilot Wing 1st Issue
Hyannis, MA 1988-Current
The airline was founded in 1988. Initially, Cape Air flew between Provincetown and Boston, but throughout the early 1990s new routes were added to destinations across southeastern New Englland. In 1994, Cape Air and Nantucket Airlines merged. Services in Florida and the Caribbean were added in the late 1990s. 2004 marked the launch year of FAR Part 121 certification and a new hub of operations in Guam. Service was as a Continental Connection Carrier, flying from Guam to the Northern Mariana Islands of Saipan and Rota. In late 2007, the airline began a new round of expansion in the Northeast and Midwest. On November 1, 2007, the airline began service between Boston and Rutland, Vermont. The route is subsidized by the U.S. government under the Essential Air Service (EAS) program. The airline kept expanding into upstate New York and New England in early 2008. Cape Air is the largest independent regional airline in the United States.

Haven't read Part One yet? If not, you don't deserve to be here. This is like a private club for the people who have already read my first ten reviews, and let me tell you, there's some absolute gold in there if I do say so myself. Want to join this club and have some super fun times with even more tippety-top reviews? Well get back there and read 'em, and come back a changed person. No need to thank me, I'm just that nice a guy.
Shot entirely from a POV perspective, Hardcore Henry may well be the most accurate video game movie to date, and there's no license to be seen. Taking inspiration directly from the dumb first person shooters that anyone who's ever held a controller has surely played, the film is like a non-stop 80-minute journey through action game tropes, such as:
– a conveniently silent protagonist
– a villain with questionable motives (and inexplicable telekinesis)
– a series of clearly defined levels
– gameplay tutorials
– objectives marked on a map
– NPC allies
– boss battles
– a turret section
– an escort quest
– a sniper level
– skill-enhancing, self-administered syringes just left lying around
– a final showdown capped off with a quick time event
Reveling in its loud and over-the-top stupidity, Hardcore Henry's relentless pace and breathless action never once lost my interest. It's often hilarious too, whether it be the sheer ludicrousness of it all, or the smattering of well-handled comedic moments (one involving a horse and the theme to The Magnificent Seven had me laughing for minutes). Sharlto Copley particularly is a comic revelation in the film, perfectly embodying the video game spirit in the role of super-soldier Henry's body-swapping guide.
Like The Matrix crossed with Call of Duty, it's crazy, exciting and tons of fun, and is self-aware enough that its narrative shortcomings can be forgiven. Hardcore Henry is a blast.
Anyone who knows me well will know that I've had a bit of a falling out with Marvel's Cinematic Universe over the past years. I don't especilally like some of the directions they've taken, and to boot some of the films have just been plain uninteresting, not least 2015's stinker Avengers: Age of Ultron.
After last year's disappointment, it was a small relief that I actually quite enjoyed Captain America: Civil War, in some regions titled Avengers 3: Cap Got an Attitude. Coming from the Russo brothers, directors of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, it is an exhilarating affair, with some brutal and fantastically choreographed fight scenes that got the blood pumping. It's unfortunate, then, that the film is a bit of a mess.
For a start, following MCU tradition, the villain is god-awful. I can see what they were trying to do with Baron Zemo, but in trying to be clever, they instead made him boring. When his character's motivation is revealed to be an issue raised by a different character much earlier in the film, his resolution becomes a complete non-event, and it has no weight at all.
The plot as a whole just doesn't add up for me either, and I spent nearly the entire film questioning it. It's like the writers took the successful Civil War graphic novel and stripped it down until was almost unrecognisable, to squeeze it into the framework of the movie universe. It doesn't work. The huge and consequential war of the book is gone, in favour of an incredibly manufactured 6 v 6 fight scene at an airport which, although fun to watch, is very hard to buy into. The film also removes the core issue of the comic's conflict – the right to a secret identity, meaning that the cause which jolly old Cap vows to fight for becomes waffley and far less convincing.
I've always loved the concept of superheroes living dual lives, and the lack of secret identities in the MCU bothers me. One scene, in which new addition Black Panther removes his mask the instant a news camera is upon him (revealing him to be the king of an African nation) made me actively angry, as it ruined any possibility of such duality in his upcoming movie. At least there's still hope for Spidey though, whose characterisation in Civil War was pretty much spot on (but of course Marvel had to ruin him a little bit, here by introducing an annoying dependence on fan favourite Tony Stark).
The more I think about it, the less I think of Civil War as a bad film, but rather just one that's not for me. From growing up on superhero cartoons, as well as the odd game and comic, I have a very personal idea of what superheroes should be, and what they mean to me. I love heroes who are selfless, going out of their way to help people in whatever way they can, acting as an icon of hope to people all across the world. It's frustrating to me then, that Marvel Studios are painting the Avengers more like soldiers than superheroes, a militarised force that battles armies of aliens, robots and, in this film, each other. Indeed, the opening of Civil War, which has the souped-up warriors chasing and gunning down terrorists, comes off more like Mission: Impossible, or an episode of Spooks, and I find it strange to see this kind of action in a superhero film.
As usual when I'm talking about these things, I appear to have gone on far longer than I'd hoped, and with more than 20 reviews on the horizon, I'd best wrap this one up. I'll leave you with this one question: if you have seen the film, can you think of a single moment in Captain America: Civil War in which a superhero does something truly heroic? They sure squabble a lot, and that's prime time to be rescuing cats from trees.
After playing a gig in the middle of nowhere, a hapless punk band stumble across a murder backstage, and are promptly taken hostage by a barbaric group of neo-Nazi skinheads led by a chilling Patrick Stewart. This is the setup for Green Room, a tense, claustrophobic and horribly gory thriller that's really quite a tough watch – and all the better for it. If you're looking for something to get your heart racing, with some stylish direction and powerful acting by the likes of Stewart and the late Anton Yelchin, look no further. Nazi Punks Fuck Off!
What's that? A Marvel Comics film that's not afraid to be like a comic? Why, it must be X-Men!
After 2014's Days of Future Past got a bit too serious and contrived for my liking, Apocalypse is a glorious and colourful comic book romp that took me back to watching the classic X-Men cartoon of the 90s. While negatives for some, the flashy action and melodramatic, world-dominating villain really appealed to me, and the new young cast of Jean Grey, Cyclops and Nightcrawler show a promising future for the franchise. After stealing the screen with his brief appearance in DoFP, superfast speedster Quicksilver is back and more brilliant than ever, leading one set piece that had me positively howling with laughter. It's uncomplicated, vibrant entertainment, and, unsurprisingly, I preferred it to Civil War.
Where are all the good fantasy films these days? [Checks last year's post, retches upon sight of Seventh Son] nope, nothing here. [Checks bin, rummages past everything that's ever been on the Sci-Fi Channel] yuck, nothing in here either. Well guys, I'm running out of ideas. Wait… [Checks Duncan Jones' filmography] GUYS, WE HAVE SOMETHING.
I've probably spent more time in my life playing World of Warcraft than any other game, and though I was never too interested in the game's lore, I eagerly anticipated Duncan Jones' follow-up to his excellent science fiction films Moon and Source Code. Thankfully, not only did it turn out to be a stonker of a video game movie, but it's probably one of the best big budget high fantasy movies since The Lord of the Rings.
Splitting its narrative evenly across characters on both sides of a human-orc war, Warcraft succeeds in delivering a very personal story at the heart of an epic event, in a vast and intriguing world. With the likes of Vikings' Travis Fimmell and a tremendously believable motion capture performance by Toby Kebbell as the orc Durotan, these are characters we believe in, and despite the weird sorcery zipping about every which way, they never fade to the background.
As a fan of the game I relished Jones' mighty achievement, and there are as many Easter eggs as I could have hoped for (rwlrwlrwlrwl). If you've never sunk time into the world's number one MMORPG, never run the Deadmines, or farmed Peacebloom, or fallen off the Deeprun Tram, I'd still urge you to give Warcraft a go. You might find a new fantasy to fall in love with.
Thanks to a Film4 season over last year's Christmas period, I fell into the wonderful world of Studio Ghibli at the very start of 2016, and have never looked back. My Neighbour Totoro has since become my favourite film of all time, and treasures like Castle in the Sky, Porco Rosso and Kiki's Delivery Service are films I'll most likely be watching for the rest of my life. How amazing then that, as the studio's future is currently uncertain (though it now seems Hayao Miyazaki is coming out of retirement for the 57th time), this year saw the UK release of their latest masterpiece: Hiromasa Yonebayashi's When Marnie Was There.
Based on the beloved book by Joan G. Robinson, the film tells the story of lonely 12-year-old Anna Sasaki. To recover from an illness, Anna goes to stay with friends of her foster parents in the Japanese countryside, and is immediately infatuated with a big house across the marsh. There, she meets a mysterious blonde-haired girl called Marnie, with whom she quickly strikes up a loving friendship. Something about her new companion is not quite normal though, and whether Marnie is a ghost or something much more than that, secrets are revealed that change Anna's life forever.
Simultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming, When Marnie Was There is a beautifully-animated story about the importance of friends, family, and always looking on the bright side of life. More so than any other Ghibli film, I find that I relate deeply to the themes presented in Marnie, and the plight of the insecure, self-doubting Anna moves me to tears every time. The breathtaking soundtrack too brings up so many emotions, and the poignant theme song 'Fine On The Outside', with Priscilla Ahn's sorrowful voice and moving lyrics, perfectly rounds off a bittersweet ending.
As the credits rolled, and after I had dried my eyes, I stood up and shuffled to the screen door as if waking from a dream. As I said thanks to the usher, my voice broke. It's a cinema experience I will never forget.
Soundtrack Pick: 'Fine On The Outside' by Priscilla Ahn, from When Marnie Was There.
Nicolas Winding Refn is one of my favourite directors, and his most recent offering The Neon Demon is certainly interesting. More Only God Forgives than Drive, the film is a weird and often quite creepy voyage into the dark and dangerous world of Los Angeles models. Visually it's as cool as you'd expect if you've seen Refn's other work, and Cliff Martinez' pumping score gets under your skin in a way synonymous with the director, but I feel it's lacking something to make it really great. Without the drive of Drive and the heady symbolism of Only God Forgives, The Neon Demon is a beguiling watch, but a tough one to recommend.
When the first trailer came out for the 2016 Ghostbusters reboot, I had mixed feelings about it. Some would say it's because I didn't think the jokes were very funny, others that I'm a raging misogynist. Either or, I suppose.
My expectations middling, I was actually pleasantly surprised by Ghostbusters. The plot isn't anything to send an email home about, and I think the cameos from the original cast were a misstep, but what astonished me the most was how funny it was. The rapport between the four leads (Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones, Kristen Wiig and Kate McKinnon) allowed a natural flow of witty dialogue, and Chris Hemsworth was hysterical as their (mostly) harmlessly idiotic secretary (whose Mike Hat joke could well be the best of the year).
As with most films these days, Ghostbusters ends with a sequel hook no doubt hoped to launch a franchise. To be honest? I'm up for it.
I can't recall actually reading Roald Dahl's story of the Big Friendly Giant. I'm sure I did, but my fondest memories of The BFG come from listening to the cassette audiobook over and over, when I was likely a quarter of my current age. Alternating with other beloved tapes like Paddington and Horrid Henry, I would listen to a bit every night before going to sleep, and I soon became familiar with the titular giant's bizarre and lyrical manner of speaking.
Casting one's mind back to childhood is difficult, but Steven Spielberg's magical new version of The BFG did that for me. In a superb digital performance, Mark Rylance becomes the BFG I imagined all those years ago, and as he talks of crocadowndillies and telly telly bunkum boxes, the memories of that marvelous book came flooding back. Amazingly, I even found that I knew how lines of dialogue would end before I heard them. That's the mark of a great adaptation, certainly.
It's not perhaps as accurate a translation as the classic 1989 animated version (darker elements of the book are skipped over here, and the ending is quite different), but Spielberg's film is an absolute, triumphant joy, retaining the humble heart of the text whilst updating it with whizzpopping special effects that enhance the sense of fantastical wonder. Oh, and it's also got a soundtrack by John Williams. What more could you want?
Soundtrack Pick: 'Sophie and The BFG' by John Williams, from The BFG.
I don't fully understand the beef many people have with DC's villain party Suicide Squad. Sure, it's no high-art masterwork, but I had a bloody good couple of hours both times I watched it.
It seems that I couldn't disagree with critics more, on almost everything, including:
The structure. I thought this was actually one of the film's stronger points – setting up each one of its characters before launching them headfirst into an extended, brutal infiltration mission that takes up the rest of the film. In a world where most superhero films have the same plot, I really appreciated this interesting take on the format.
The character introductions. Contrary to popular opinion, I thought these were well handled, considering the number of characters we have to meet (they definitely don't take as long as some would have you believe) and the decision to focus mainly on Deadshot and Harley Quinn was the right call to avoid overcrowding the film. While it would have been nice to learn more about squad members like Killer Croc and Katana, we must remember that the DC Extended Universe is still in its early days, so we'll me seeing a lot more of these guys in the future.
The songs. I liked the use of songs, and thought the choices were perfect for the relevant characters. Stop comparing it to Guardians of the Galaxy, it's moronic.
The villain. Similarly to why I loved Apocalypse in the new X-Men, Suicide Squad's villain was colourful, extravagant and undeniably, unapologetically evil. Some are criticising the character for being cliche, but I'd take a powerful, destructive force like this any day over Marvel's roster of piss-poor antagonists. [Seriously, think of how many great villains there have been in the MCU. I can think of two – Loki and Winter Soldier, and I'm really struggling past those].
Jared Leto's Joker. I thought he was great. He's not Heath Ledger, but then Christian Bale wasn't Adam West. One of the cool things about comics, and movies based upon them, is that we get to see many different takes on characters we know and love, and Leto's drugged-up mobster is a compelling new addition to the Joker legacy. Also, he shouldn't have been in it more because it wasn't his film. Done.
There's more issues I could address, but I honestly can't be bothered. I've had many a heated discussion about this film over the past months, and usually they don't go anywhere. Baseline is, it's nothing like as good as Batman v Superman, but it's definitely a decent watch, and I enjoyed it immensely. Triggered much?
Lights Out is an average horror film with an above-average gimmick – that of a supernatural creature that can only move in the dark. It adds an interesting dynamic as light becomes a valuable resource for the hapless protagonists, but the rote plot is something we've all seen a thousand times before, and ultimately it's just another 'meh' in the genre.
'Pay careful attention to everything you see and hear, no matter how unusual it may seem. And please be warned, if you fidget, if you look away, if you forget any part of what I tell you, even for an instant, then our hero will surely perish…'
With the prevalence of CGI animation these days, it's a wonderful rarity to see a stop-motion feature, and the team at Laika are doing an amazing job at keeping the form alive. Their latest work, the Japanese folklore-inspired Kubo and the Two Strings, is the most stunning of its kind I have ever seen, and the puppetry on show comes alive with a physicality that truly beggars belief. The action and effects are positively dazzling: in one scene, inventive origami magic flutters and folds itself into the tale of a legendary hero; in another, an electrifying battle plays out atop a ship made of leaves. That it is all handcrafted is nothing short of a phenomenon.
Kubo has a complex story at its heart, dealing with the theme of losing and remembering loved ones in a mature way, but its soul is in its characters. Leading the adventure is the titular Kubo, a one-eyed boy possessing a mystical shamisen, who sets out to defeat the fabled, terrifying Moon King and uncover the truth about his parents. Joining him in his quest are Charlize Theron's straight-talking snow monkey and Matthew McConaughey's amnesiac beetle samurai, who shape Kubo's journey with their lessons and stories. It's a beautifully-told story with a charming sense of humour (I love you… Monkey?), and the moment in which the relevance of the film's title becomes clear is astonishingly powerful.
You really owe it to yourself to watch Kubo and the Two Strings – I promise it will blow you away.
If you must blink, do it now.
Don't miss the final part of the year's review, including my top films of 2016. Coming sooner than planetary armageddon! Get hyped, lads and ladettes.

CLEVELAND, OH -- Sherwin-Williams Product Finishes Division introduces Kem Aqua® BP Siding Plus, a performance siding coating that provides an enhanced finish compared to "machine finishes" in terms of appearance, application, hardness and drying time. It can be applied to a wide variety of substrates, including plastic/composites, wood and fiberglass for both exterior and interior use.
Aesthetically, Kem Aqua BP Siding Plus resists color- and gloss-fading for an attractive, long-lasting finish. It resists chipping and cracking and is available in a wide range of colors. Solar reflective technology is optional for heat-sensitive substrates; it repels heat in dark colors and helps prevent warping and bowing that could result from exposure to sunlight.
Kem Aqua BP Siding Plus can be applied using a variety of coating methods, including curtain, flood and spray coating. It also dries to a harder finish faster than typical machine finishes, providing excellent adhesion and enhancing stackability. Field touch-ups are fast and easy. Available limited warranties extend up to 25 years.
It is a waterborne product with low VOC (1.0 lbs/gallon, less water) and low HAPs.
"Kem Aqua BP Siding Plus offers something for everyone," said Chuck Susnis, Market Development Director, Wood & Composite Building Products at Sherwin-Williams. "It provides excellent aesthetics, the primary concern of homebuyers. Builders and remodelers can be assured of its durability in a wide range of color options and color customization. Ease of application, plus a tough finish coat that dries quickly, makes it an excellent choice for finishers and siding manufacturers, along with low VOCs and HAPs."

New Year Inspiration: My Top 10 Adventure Trips
By Michael Lanza
I often get asked the question, "What's your favorite trip?" And I don't have an answer. To pick just one from all the amazing adventures I've had the good fortune to take over the past two-plus decades feels like an impossible task. Instead, I've just updated this list of my 10 all-time favorites (so far). It includes some of America's best backpacking trips, from the Teton Crest Trail and John Muir Trail to Glacier National Park; hiking across the Grand Canyon; trekking in Iceland, Patagonia, Norway, and Italy's Dolomite Mountains (photo above); and some places that might surprise you.

15 Adventures on Earth That Will Change Your Life
By Michael Lanza
Can travel "change your life?" How many experiences have such an enormous impact? I can name several that shifted my perspective, or expanded how I view the world and other people. Exploring the surreal landscapes of Iceland and Patagonia. Walking among Earth's highest mountains in Nepal, through remote villages where people live much as their ancestors did for centuries. Immersing myself in the mountain culture on hut treks in the Alps like the Tour du Mont Blanc (photo above). And seeing unforgettable places like Norway's Jotunheimen National Park, Italy's Dolomites, and Alaska's Glacier Bay through the unclouded eyes of my kids. Continue reading →
10 Expert Tips for Doing Adventure Travel Right
By Michael Lanza
What exactly is "adventure travel?" In a sense, it's a little like pornography: hard to define, but you know what it is when you see it. Adventure transports you into a physical and emotional place you have never gone before, or rarely go. It brings surprises and occasionally hardships. But the good surprises are a gift that often comes wrapped in wonder and awe, while the hardships teach us something about the world and, usually, about ourselves.
Our earliest adventures can help kindle a fire for more experiences that deliver that buzz again—that feeling of being entirely on your own and not knowing what's going to happen next, but whatever lies ahead, you're eager to leap into it. Continue reading →

The Film Photographers Best Friend - The Epson Perfection V500 Photo Scanner
(If you can't see the video, please click here).
The first time you hear the Epson V500 Scanner in action you know you're dealing with a quality piece of kit. The smooth electronic hum, with the accompaniment of well-machined motors and gears, makes using it a joy. I warn you now - I like the V500. A lot.
One of the challenges of using film in the digital age is how you can turn your analogue negatives and prints into an electronic format for sharing on the web, or for printing out with ink-jet abd dye-sub printers at home.
A great example to start with are instant photographs, like the ones I take with my Fujifilm Instax Mini or my Polaroid Colorpack II.
I love Instant Photography - no messing around, just choose your subject, frame the composition and press the button. The Polaroids or Fuji Prints are brilliant to hand around to friends and familly, but if you want to share them on the web then a flat-bed scanner like the V500 is perfect.
This Epson can scan at a resolution of up to 6400 dpi - more than enough to produce beautifully detailed prints of any photographs, instant or otherwise.
The above photos are scanned with the V500, and I've deliberately placed them at a "Jaunty" angle to emphasise the fact that they are prints and not digital files, and I love the way they look.
Where the Epson V500 Photo comes into its own is when you want to scan negatives - and it can do 35mm negative strips, mounted slides, and medium format 120 negatives, all in black and white or colour. Lets take a look at some of my scans:
The Epson V500's secret is in its lid. Using LED lights, it shines a bright light through your transparencies to the scanner head below, and this is what enables the V500 to produce such great results. Remember that the above photos are from medium format 120 negs, the black and white ones from a Plastic Diana Camera, and the colour one from Kodak Camera built in 1918!
Using the V500 is simplicity itself. Just install the drivers, then you can access it from within Photoshop using the "File, Import" function. You can then choose one of three dialogues - fully auto, home and professional. I used the pro setting which allows the control of everything to scanning resolution, import size, dust and scratch reduction and colour correction.
If you're scanning negatives the software will recognise this, and import 35mm strips of negs as seperate files. As I mention in the video, one of the most powerful aspects of the Epson sofware is its "Digital Ice" technology, which reduces dust and scratches, great for reducing the amount of time you might have to spend cloning and fixing images.
In fact after scanning plenty of medium format and 35mm negatives I found that all I had to do in post processing was to add a little contrast using the levels command, and anything that cuts down the amount of time I have to spend in front of the PC and frees me to go out taking phtographs, is fine by me!
I don't like getting technical with the reviews on robnunnphoto.com - and this look at the V500 is no exception. Suffice it to say that this Epson scanner enables me to have a complete film workflow at home, without having to rely on labs to do my scanning. I can develop my own film using my Paterson tanks, scan it with the V500, and then share the photos on Flickr or print them out using my CP780 Printer.
The Epson V500 Photo Scanner - the photographers friend!
Thanks, Rob.

News Release
Wolastoq Valley Trail recognized as one of 11 Signature Trails11 June 2018
FLORENCEVILLE-BRISTOL (GNB) – The provincial government has recognized the Wolastoq Valley Trail as one of the 11 Signature Trails highlighted in the recently announced Trails Action Plan.
"Investing in Signature Trails will raise New Brunswick's profile as an international destination of choice," said Environment and Local Government Minister Andrew Harvey. "The trails will also serve to build community infrastructure in the province's smaller towns and villages while contributing to active and healthy lifestyles."
Harvey spoke on behalf of Tourism, Heritage and Culture Minister John Ames.
Signature Trails are an important part of the Trails Action Plan, a $15.78-million investment in the province's trails network. Eleven Signature Trails have been designated for development, from signage upgrades to infrastructure to long-term management plans.
The 100-kilometre Wolastoq Valley Trail follows the Saint John River between Woodstock and Grand Falls. Investing in the trail will serve a variety of user groups in several communities.
Signature Trails are major regional tourism attractions. They encompass distinctive landscapes and vistas, from the Appalachian Mountain Range and Acadian forests to city waterfronts and coastlines. The Trails Action Plan is intended to elevate the network of over 20,000 kilometres of developed trails by improving accessibility, safety and overall user experience.
"We are very pleased with Minister Harvey's announcement," said Carolyn McKay, a member of the Trans Canada Trail's board of directors.
The New Brunswick Tourism Growth Strategy will invest $100 million in tourism over the next eight years, with a goal of growing tourism-related GDP to $2 billion by 2025. Tourism visitor spending is estimated at $1.3 billion, making it the third-largest service sector in the province.11-06-18

Travelling with your Helper
IF you are travelling with your domestic helper overseas, it is important to understand that Hong Kong Travel plans DO NOT cover you obligations as an Employer, when your helper is working for you abroad. It is a legal requirement in HK that Employers insure their liabilities according to the Employees' Compensation Ordinance and at Common Law, by having an Employees' Compensation policy. Your Domestic Helper policy will need to be extended (by endorsement) to cover what is locally called 'Overseas Working', as the typical Hong Kong 'Maid/Driver' policy ONLY COVERS YOUR LIABILITIES IN HONG KONG and not abroad.
Product Features:
- Cover of your legal liabilities as an employer in Hong Kong according to:
- the Employees Compensation Ordinance
- Common Law
- Protection from third party claims against your helpers/yourself in case of being held negligent and someone being injured or their property damaged as a result.
- Daily cash subsidy if your helper is hospitalised for five consecutive days or more
- Repatriation expenses for helper when in need to return to his/her country due to illness or in the event of death
- Fidelity protection for financial loss you may suffer due to fraud or dishonest acts committed by your helper
- Optional cover for hospitalisation expenses due to critical illness such as stroke, cancer and kidney failure, etc
- All-in-one medical protection from outpatient, hospitalisation, surgery to emergency dental expenses.
As far as protection for your needing to provide medical care for your helper, plans like AXA's here are of little comfort if your helper suffers some major setback in her/his heatlh.
Typically the HKD30,000 maximum for the years medical expenses can go in a few hours in a private hospital and even the additional Critical Illness protection of HKD70,000 or more for cancer treatment will likely go in a week or two if your helper receives such care in a private clinic.
Our point here is that if you genuinely want to be protected from potentially crippling private medical expenses, you have no alternative other than to take out more comprehensive and costly cover. Contact us to find out where is a good place to start.
NOTE: The better quality Home Plans often include the Employees' Compensation (but not the medical) cover, free of charge.

AXA Hong Kong offers 3 individual products:
Smart Medical Insurance
A typical 'local' market product, with many limitations and caveats that mean it is difficult to be sure as to the extent of your cover in advance of needing treatment.
SmartCare Optimum
The product was modelled after a similar product from a Dutch insurer, 'OHRA' and has far fewer limitations than the Smart Medical Plan.
The SmartCare Optimum offers a Private Room (Elite) and SemiPrivate Room (Deluxe) option and can be taken as an individual or company plan for three or more employees.
The Elite, which is hardly ever taken by our clients, offers HKD5,000,000 in hospital cover and HKD150,000 in outpatient cover.
The Deluxe offers HKD2,500,000 in hospital cover and HKD100,000 in outpatient cover.
Dental cover is available but you need to present a dental examination report at your opwn expense at the time of applying.
There are a range of Hospital Deductions available HKD10,000, HKD50,000, HKD100,000, aand HKD250,000. In practice, few of our clients ever take more than the HKD10,000 deductible.
In the case of the Deluxe, there are what we regard as some serious omissions in the extent of cover.
For example;
- Overseas Hospital treatment is capped @ HKD500,000
- Outpatient medication is capped @HKD10,000 pa
- Outpatient Kidney Dialysis and Cancer treatment is capped @ HKD250,000 for the year and this amount may only last you a month or two.
For group cover, AXA does not offer to disregard medical history and will underwrite all those to be insured. If people have health issus, their premiums will be increased or AXA may refuse to cover certain conditions. Futhermore, at renewal of the group, AXA will charge a rate that reflects the claim experience over the preceeding year.
Global Elite II
The Global Elite II guarantees acceptance of anyone from age 14 days old to 80 (subject to availability of Global Elite II at the time of application), with no requirement for a medical questionnaire or screening.
Global Elite II's Prestige and Comprehensive benefit levels cover both Pre-existing Conditions and Congenital Conditions.
If you have been on either of these two top levels of cover for 9 months, you can claim up to USD2300 for preexisting conditions and if you have been covefred 2 years or more, but have not been free of the need to seek or obtain treatment, thne you can claim USD4600 pa. Once trouble free for a period of 2+ years, you have full cover.
AXA offers a number of home insurance plans such as:
Monthly Paid: (Balance of first Month PLUS entire second month, FREE!)
- The Captain's Home plan: Rated traditionally according to Sum Issured and including Free Employees' Compensation cover.
- The New Settlers Home Plan: Unusually includes an optilon of an annual travel plan for family members and domestic helpers. Free Employee' Compensation cover as well as the limited hospital and outpatient benefits of traditional helper policies are also included for one helper, FREE!
AXA guarantees to match or better any comparable quote and in our recall, we have never known them beaten.
One thing people like about these plans is that you do not need to provide proof of value at the outset. You only need to provide proof of value IF you claim.
Annually Paid
- AXA ArtPlus
This product has a minimum premium of HKD20,000 and is generally taken by people with substantial art collections.

Most companies in the market rate cars for comprehensive cover according to the 'sum insured'. Not so AXA, which rates by a matrix involving especially the cost of repairs, occupation and age of the driver and so on.
AXA's Office policy is designed for the typical Hong Kong office and contains the key cover elemetns of Employee's Compensation, Office contents and public liability.
In line with the rest of the market, AXA does not insure people working out of home offices.
If you are moving home or office in Hong Kong or internationally, AXA Hong Kong provides 'All Risk' cover for your goods in transit. The rates charged are typically well under what a removalist will charge.
The catch is that AXA does not insure:
- Pairs and sets. So if one of a set of two standard lamps was broken, you could only claim for one.
- Mould and mildew. This could e an issue if moisture penetrated your container in transit and you had fabrics being shipped.
AXA's art division focusses on insuring art, whether in homes or offices and as well in galleries and in transit to and from exhibitions.
AXA will provide cover for household or office contents, but if you have less than perhaps a HKD1.5m in art to insure, we will likely need to find cover elsewhere.
Collectors of art are well advised to ensure that their treasured possessions are fully insured and protected. Navigator Insurance Brokers are able to offer specialist advice on how best to protect those cherished works of art.
AXA Art's Private Collections insurance policy is designed to meet the requirements of serious art collectors who need specialist insurance solutions.
AXA Art has been offering specialist insurance cover to private and corporate art collectors internationally for more than 50 years. This also includes providing insurance in Hong Kong for private homes, galleries, museums and exhibitors.
Navigator Insurance Brokers will advise you on options available and work with AXA Art experts in order to ensure that a suitable policy is issued for your specific requirements. AXA Art employ art professionals to assist in the process of advising you on how to fully protect against financial loss. When necessary, Axa Art will also provide a survey service to help establish and agree risk reduction measures.
The cover is based on an agreed value including depreciation after any loss. New acquisitions can be added to the same policy and cover includes transit and emergency evacuations.
Included within the AXA Art policy is the option to cover not just your art, but also:
- Classic and Vintage Cars
- Fabrics, Textiles and Clothing
- Furniture
- High-Value Memorabilia
- Jewellery
- Rare Coins
- (Vintage) Wine
- Watches
NOTE: The Classic car cover option is to provide cover for your car in storage and while is is being driven for maintenance.

I loved this one. One thing I particularly liked was seeing other character character view points and not just focusing on the Jace/Clary thing. I liked seeing more of Simon dealing with the vampire thing, while he is not my favourite character in the series, I still find it interesting. I also liked seeing the familiarity of things introduced in the first three books on how the Shadowhunters work and a new story line come through. While this was wrapped up, a great cliffhanger leading onto the next book. With great writing and some interesting character development, another fanatic instalment.
Completed the book I wanted to read for Clare a Thon challenge. Also crossing off a square for Book Bingo - Written by a Woman.

Oh Lee and Kristen… you two make me want to take dance classes at the local dance studio just to get the moves you two have! Like I said before, I could post 30 photos on here that would just crack people up with how you two compliment each-other, but I'll save it for a fun post another day!
I've known Lee since Junior High and to see him all grown up… well it's just normal. Because if I admit it's weird… then that means I'm old as well! Lee was known for his ability to make anyone laugh in any situation. He clearly hasn't changed much because I spent the afternoon with an ab workout that would put Hip Hop Abs to shame! OH and Kristen… your skin is just… amazing! I may have to send these photos in to Canon so they can see how beautiful their lenses work. You make my job E-A-S-Y. With an A+.
We spent the afternoon on Friday at Lee's Ranch outside of town. The weather was perfect and the place was filled with newborn calves. The noises I made when I saw them almost got me kicked out of the truck, but luckily these two know me and let it slide. Lee and Kristen, you two compliment each-other better than you probably think you do. When you weren't looking Kristen, Lee was smiling at you and then you would do it right back. I wish you guys nothing but the best, and I hope your marriage is filled with as much laughter as I experienced on Friday!

Scented ElastiTags
Rub'n Smell Improves the Effectiveness of Print Advertising
Rub'nSmell varnishing technology combined with ElastiTags transform print into a multi-sensory medium.
Download a list of Stock Fragrances.
Rub'n Smell technology increases the impact, recall, value, and effectiveness of your marketing efforts. Rub'nSmell is applied in-line during the printing process so the cost to scent advertising, packaging, direct mail, catalogs, coupons, etc. is more then offset by the increase you get in response.
"Olfactory scientists say using scent is smart marketing. Of all the human senses, smell has the most direct pathway to the emotional center of the brain."As reported in the Washington Post Appealing To the Senses – Aromatic Packaging Is Just the Start Of Futuristic Sales Ploys By Margaret Webb Pressler, Washington Post Staff Writer Sunday, February 19, 2006
- Integrating scent into print advertising increases consumer attention, awareness and stimulates purchase activity to a higher degree than non-scented advertising.
- Rub'nSmell is easy to use. Any printer can use it. It is applied in-line as a fifth color or coating. Many scents can be printed on a sheet.
- A scented magazine ad (printed as a fifth color) with Rub'nSmell can cost less than half of a traditional supplied scented insert.
- Scent is proven to create an emotional response and elicit memories. Rub'nSmell gives marketers the ability to channel these emotions into sales.
- Rub'nSmell is proven to increase sales when used on direct mailers and catalogs.
- When Rub'nSmell is printed on products (e.g.. on primary labels, cartons, shrink sleeves, neckers, or hang tags) Rub'nSmell economically encourages product trial at point of sale where more then 75% of purchase decisions are made.
- On-package sampling with Rub'nSmell not only creates a distinct competitive advantage at point of sale but also enables customers to engage and interact with the product without opening (and damaging) the product package.
- Rub'nSmell scented varnish adds value and interest to printed promotional items such as scented bookmarks, coupons, shopping bags, handouts, tickets, fliers, direct mailers, lottery tickets, scratch off game cards, or gift wrap.
- Rub'nSmell is transparent and non-obtrusive and is applied over graphics. Scent remains dormant until the printed surface is rubbed and lasts for years in printed form.
- Unlike traditional scented magazine inserts, Rub'nSmell will not smell up a magazine, and ads scented with Rub'nSmell area can be rubbed multiple times. So for magazines with large pass-along readership Rub'nSmell exponentially increases the value of scented advertising much more so then a traditional scented (single use) insert.Virtually any fragrance can be encapsulated and made into Rub'nSmell scented varnish. Customers can supply their own fragrance oils or we can assist in sourcing or developing a specific fragrance upon request.
Customer Supplied Oils
In cases where clients provide their own fragrance oils for encapsulation we request that the fragrance oils be prepared with the following criteria.
- Made with little to no water soluble materials
- Contain no alcohol or emulsifiers
- Have a boiling point above 100¡ Celsius
- Be accompanied with a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)
The minimum amount of oil that can be encapsulated is 1 kg of oil (2.2 lb).

"I'm a folk musician in reality, it's people music, it's about making people happy," said musician Aaron Austin. And making people happy, he is.
While Austin's musical journey represents an impressive list of accomplishments, he's relatively new to the Keys music scene. An old-school acoustic musician hailing from the Finger Lakes Region of Upstate New York, Austin first picked up a guitar at age 10 and by the time he was 20, he was making his living as a professional musician.
Austin is a solo singer/songwriter who plays originals accompanied by his guitar and harmonica – no backing tracks. His biggest influences include Neil Young, Bob Dylan, America and the Grateful Dead. He has shared the stage with Allen Ginsberg during the riots of the '70s and even opened for Willie Nelson in a 15,000 person amphitheater in 1993.
Success aside, there's a humbleness to Austin that's unexpected and endearing. "Now I'm 53 and I'm lucky to be a healthy guy who still has some fire left in his soul," said Austin.
What initially began as a family holiday to escape the New York weather, soon became an all-to-familiar love affair with the Keys. Austin, his wife and two youngest children recently opted for a long-term holiday relocating to the Keys in November of 2013.
Since "the transplant," Austin has found himself reinvigorated by his new surroundings and warm reception. He attributes his fresh outlook to a community that allows him to play freely as a musician.
"I can expand my boundaries and play with that bit of confidence in my own head that you can be yourself and as long as you do it with honestly and integrity, people will appreciate that here," said Austin.
Austin plays like an open book. "I wear my music as a lifestyle and typically, I let the music do the talking… It's really great to be able to do what I do," said Austin.
Visit www.aaronaustinmusic.com for a complete list of upcoming shows. Catch Austin next at Castaway Waterfront Restaurant on Saturday, Nov. 15 at 7:30 p.m. and Thursday, Nov. 20 at Lazy Days Restaurant in Islamorada.

Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum Wins #1 'Best Patriotic Attraction'
BOSTON, July 2, 2016
Just in time for Independence Day, America's most patriotic holiday, the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum, which tells the story of "the single most important event leading up to the American Revolution," has been awarded #1 'Best Patriotic Attraction' in 10Best Readers' Choice 2016 travel award contest sponsored by USA TODAY.
Readers were asked to vote for their favorite patriotic attractions from a pool of 20 nominees, including the Colonial Williamsburg, Mount Rushmore National Memorial, Statue of Liberty, Boston's Freedom Trail, etc. over a four week period of voting. Nominees for all categories were chosen by a panel of relevant experts which include a combination of editors from USA TODAY; editors from 10Best.com; relevant expert contributors; and sources for both these media and other Gannett properties. Rules allowed the public the right to vote online for one nominee per category, per day. Voting closed on June 28, 2016. The winners are listed here: http://www.10best.com/awards/travel/best-patriotic-attraction/.
The Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum, which opened in June 2012 and is owned and operated by Historic Tours of America, is situated over the same body of water where the Boston Tea Party took place on December 16, 1773. The museum tells the story of the events leading up to the Boston Tea Party and immediate aftermath that led to the start of the American Revolution. The museum provides a unique immersion experience in history by representing key events in from 1773 to 1775, through live actors, tea [crate] throwing off authentically resorted tea ships, high-tech interactive exhibits, and an award-winning multisensory film, Let it Begin Here. On display at the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum is the Robinson Half Chest, one of only two known surviving tea chests from the original Boston Tea Party (the second is owned by the Daughters of the American Revolution in Washington DC).
The Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum is open 7 days/week from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. (summer/spring) and from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. (fall/winter). Tours run every 30 minutes in the fall/winter and every 15 minutes in the spring/summer and last 1 hr.
"We are humbled and honored to be awarded 'Best Patriotic Attraction' among such an esteemed group of nominees," says Shawn P. Ford, Executive Director of the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum. "Every day, the entire team at the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum is passionate about telling and teaching the story The Boston Tea Party, celebrating and recognizing its significance in American History. We could not be more proud to have received this recognition and thank everyone who voted for us. "
Coming up in December 2016, The Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum and the Old South Meeting House team-up to host the annual Boston Tea Party Reenactment which takes places every December 16 with hundreds of reenactors. This year will mark the 243rd anniversary of The Boston Tea Party.
This annual reenactment, one of the largest moving theatrical reenactment performances in the United States, is an opportunity for the public to experience one of America's most iconic public protests, live, where reenactors bring to life the story of The Boston Tea Party and theatrically recreate the evening of Dec., 16, 1773. It begins with a fiery tea tax debate at Old South Meeting House, the actual historic hall where the colonists gathered to protest taxation without representation. Then, the public joins a lively procession to the waterfront, and watch as the Sons of Liberty destroy hundreds of pounds of actual [expired] tea direct from London's East India Company into Boston's historic harbor at the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum.

Remember Amelia Lily? The songstress rose from the ashes like a pink-feathered phoenix in last year's X Factor – after originally being eliminated from the competition by mentor Kelly Rowland in the first live show, the public ended up voting her back in. And yet she still didn't win the bloody thing.
But past experience (see JLS, Cher Lloyd, One Direction, Rebecca Ferguson) has proven that sometimes it's better NOT to win the competition. And Amelia will probably be laughing all the way to the bank after it was revealed that she's apparently signed a three album deal with super-producers Xenomania, who are expected to work on her debut too.
Not familiar with Xenomania? Below are three simple reasons this could be huge news for Amelia – they've previously worked on songs like:
The Saturdays – 'All Fired Up'
The Wanted – 'I'll Be Your Strength'
Do we need to say any more? We're crossing all our fingers and toes that this new is true.

Karen here and I am thrilled to share with you the Mini Doll house I made that you can with you to play at your friends, outside or just in your room!
To create your own 4 room mini doll house you will need:
- 1 square cardboard box that is at least 8 inches high and 10 inches wide
- Scrapbook paper in various patterns and colors
- Aleene's Original Tacky Glue Sticks or Fabric Fusion tape
- Scissors
- Ruler or Measuring tape
* Your mini dolls and any accessories and furniture you would like
Step 1- Assemble all your supplies
Step 2- Find the inside lip of your box where the box is being held together and use your finger or your scissor edge to loosen it from the box. Unfold the box as shown in the photos above and remove the top flaps and bottom flaps. Then Cut the remaining parts of the box in half so you have two equal sides. The boxes pieces are going to be cut so that they slide easily into each other and make an "X" shape.
Step 3- Use your ruler to measure your piece of cardboard in the center and make a mark two inches from the bottom of the center of each piece. Use your scissors to make a cut to this line and repeat on the second piece.
Step 4- Now you will be able to slide the two pieces together to make the X shown in the photo above.
Step 5- Now it is time to decorate the rooms! Use your ruler to measure each room and then decide on how you want to decorate each wall.
Use your Aleene's glue to hang your "Wall Paper" I used coordinating paper to make it look like some of my walls had Wainscoting, some walls I did in one color. It is fun to do and decorate! Use what you have from your doll play collection to make each room unique! This fun playset you can take apart or fold down to store and play with again and again!

In your topic file, reference the variable with the following:
You can event put attributes on the keyword so that different product names appear based on different conditional processing.
