THE PUBLIC EYE: The New Normal
This week, Northern California had its first significant rain and our fire season ended. (Unfortunately, as I write this, there is a big fire burning in Southern California near Santa Barbara.) For the last several years, fire season has lasted longer than it once did, and the fires have been more ferocious. Californians are beginning to acknowledge that this is the new normal.
Here in Sonoma County -- north of San Francisco -- we're still recovering from the mammoth Kincade fire, which started on October 23rd and was fully contained on November 6, 2019. It burned 77,758 acres and destroyed 374 buildings. Amazingly, no one was killed; probably because the County Sheriff ordered a massive evacuation and our local utility company turned off almost all the county's electricity. (Once the evacuation order was lifted, it took several days for power to be restored.)
Most of the locals see the Kincade fire as a consequence of three factors: global climate change, reckless building in the "wildland-urban-interface" (WUI), and infrastructure decay. Climate change has caused our summers to become much drier and the fall winds to be more intense. (During the Kincade fire there were 96 mile-per-hour winds.) For a variety of reasons, California's suburbs have pushed into the wildland-urban-interface and shortsighted city planners have let developers build in locations there were once thought to be too dangerous because of the possibility of wildfires. Finally, our energy infrastructure has not been properly maintained by the primary Northern California provider, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E); now, when the winds kick up, we are at risk because of aging transmission lines and transformers. (Belatedly, PG&E acknowledged this; early in the course of the Kincade fire, the utility shut off all electric service in the projected path of the firestorm -- most of west Sonoma County.) -more-

With Transformers: The Last Knight now playing around the world, the other day I landed an exclusive interview with Josh Duhamel. He talks about the biggest challenge making The Last Knight, how you can't take it personally when Michael Bay gets mad at you, the way the script can change in an instant while filming, and a lot more.
As most of you know from the trailers, the fifth installment expands the mythology of the Transformers universe by introducing a medieval-centric backstory with Mark Wahlberg reprising his lead role from Transformers: Age of Extinction. The film also stars Anthony Hopkins, Laura Haddock, Stanley Tucci, Jerrod Carmichael, John Turturro, Josh Duhamel, Isabela Moner, Gil Birmingham, and Jean Dujardin.
Check out what Duhamel had to say in the player above and below is exactly what we talked about followed by the official synopsis and a few images.
Josh Duhamel:
- Shares a story where Bay flips out on someone
- Talks about making the film and the challenges of making a Transformers movie.
- On how the script can change in an instant on set.
Here's the official synopsis for Transformers: The Last Knight:
The Last Knight shatters the core myths of the Transformers franchise, and redefines what it means to be a hero. Humans and Transformers are at war, Optimus Prime is gone. The key to saving our future lies buried in the secrets of the past, in the hidden history of Transformers on Earth. Saving our world falls upon the shoulders of an unlikely alliance: Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg); Bumblebee; an English Lord (Sir Anthony Hopkins); and an Oxford Professor (Laura Haddock).
There comes a moment in everyone's life when we are called upon to make a difference. In Transformers: The Last Knight, the hunted will become heroes. Heroes will become villains. Only one world will survive: theirs, or ours.

Just Movement
Just Movement continues with their strong momentum and return this week with a brand new single from Stergios. The Greek producer has been one of the labels primary contributor's since its inception earlier this year and his most recent single 'Luna' remains one of Just Movement's finest releases. Now for the labels sixth overall release Stergios presents his latest work entitled 'Regeneration' which includes remixes from Rogier & Stage Van H and Simos Tagias.
For all those of you who loved 'Luna' which most felt was Stergios' career best production 'Regeneration' might be even better. It's warm progressive foundation, trippy melodic accents and unique vocal elements draw you in almost instantly. As bouncy lead hooks and soft atmospheres continue to build the piece reaches the main break. Here the smooth fluidity of the keys add to the records mesmerizing flow and the tasteful re-entry of the groove sets up a gorgeous second half conclusion. Another mature and masterfully crafted progressive house cut from Stergios who continues to rise higher and higher with each successive release.
The first interpretation of 'Regeneration' is provided by Rogier & Stage Van H who are returning to the label following a brilliant remix of the aforementioned 'Luna' from July of this year. Rogier and Stage have been key components in the heart and soul of Just Movement and their remix of 'Regeneration' is quite fabulous. With a much more driving, energetic reconstruction the much loved duo have provided some great peak time flair. The strong melodic themes are well explored and the suspense filled drop is sure to be a hit on the dance floor. Excellent work from Rogier and Stage once again!
The second and final interpretation on the release is provided by Simos Tagias who is making his Just Movement debut. The Greek producer has gone through an amazing sound voyage since his first release on Lynx Records back in 2012. 2014 has seen Simos finely tune his productions and the electronic music underground has been taking notice. With outstanding original productions for Soundteller Records and Never Too Late along with remixes on 3rd Avenue and Stellar Fountain Simos is definitely a producer on rise. For his 'Regeneration' interpretation Simos has put a deeper twist on the track with harmonic bass swells, unique tempos and a wide array of electronic inner workings. The melodic and vocal elements have been wonderfully reprocessed for a much trippier, more heady vibe. Fabulous remix from Simos which rounds out a brilliant release on Just Movement once again Don't miss it!

This was probably one of those samples that you take when there is nothing else to choose from that you are really interested in. I am not into extra firming yet, so I think it is probably aimed at mature skin more than anything else.
Sample size was fine, it lasted three to four uses. Packaging was fine too, no complains. I did not observe anything regarding the extra-firming part. You probably need more than a sample to see any effects on your skin, but definitely nothing on first impressions. Although it states all skin types, it was a bit rich for my taste, I have oily skin, and therefore go for lighter formulas preferentially.
Would I buy it based on the sample? No

Police have arrested three men in connection with the vicious beating of two men on a Melbourne roadside following an AFL match.
The trio - two 27 year olds and a 24 year old - are being questioned about the alleged assault of a 45 and 61-year-old who were punched in the face multiple times and kicked while on the ground on Thursday night after a football match between Richmond and Hawthorn.
The victims were targeted while trying to hail a taxi along Wellington Parade outside the Pullman Melbourne On The Park hotel.

Dear reader, please upgrade to the latest version of IE to have a better reading experience. Afghan child Fatima, 8, works from 7: Child labour is common in Afghanistan, with 17 per cent of all girls aged between 7 and 14 either working outside the home or doing full-time household chores, according to Unicef.
Will someone deliver one tight slap to her parents and ask them, is this for which they brought her in this world! Shame on all the so-called Muslims who look at these but don't try to help them. Shame on me as well! Very touching with those pictures! I hope her government takes action and lets her get education. A very courageous little Fatima. Does she go to school. There should be some arrangement for their studies to secure her future. A kid has got nothing to do with your ideology, religion or identities.
He simply wants to enjoy this nature gifted land. Parents have to be responsible. Kids should be product of love not lust. Dear Sirs To whom it may concern I would like to help Afgan child Fatima,and need her Address,will you be kindly to send me the Add so I can help her and make her dream true to study.
I would like to help this Afgan Girl Fatima,please let me know how to contact her,or can i have her Address so I can contact her. After reading this I feel l ashamed of us God give many if us a lot of thingsbut we are not share it with poors if we all bbecome dutiful and responsible then only society will improve. This reminds me of a sermon in a church which I head years ago in India. A rich man walking through the streets of Calcutta sees poor people begging for food with no clothes, semi clad, sick etc etc He says God do you really exist?
If so why don't you take care of these hapless people? He hears a voice Why do you think I created YOU? My friends we have enough resources to share among all of us. It is only in giving that you get. Aly khan I believe the basic food water shelter human and sanitation rights of every person needs to be taken care of, even before education. There are enough resources in the world. At least, use logic. The wealth distribution across nations is a huge problem - even within nations.

I'm busy working on a large commissioned painting. I thought it would be fun to share some older works that are still available for the next week. I painted this woman in the rain in 2007. During that time I developed many compositions in Photoshop and then brought them to the easel as references for paintings. Both processes were fun.
You can see some more of those compositions moved to the easel on my digital art page.

Nothing makes voice-recognition software shine more than good conversational algorithms -- and the natural-search function in the Google app just got a minor upgrade. Not only can use your hotel confirmation to find nearby restaurants, but also now you can casually ask it to show you the restaurant's menu or book a reservation via OpenTable. You'll still have to do a little work to complete the reservation, however (Google only gets the booking started), and it's still not perfect: If a given restaurant doesn't support OpenTable or doesn't have a menu online, the process kind of falls apart. Still, it's a nice upgrade, assuming you've already come to terms with the fact that Google's algorithms are skimming your email.

Prepare for pregnancy, birth and early parenthood
Learn, play and grow with baby while connecting with other moms
Try new things and go on an adventure with your toddler
Oh hey, I'm Kama.
I've been a Toronto east ender for over 20 years (gah, that makes me sound olllllld – my kids are right). I live in the Beaches with my nearly 14-yr-old daughter (holy, that went fast) and my 11-yr-old son. Maybe you've seen my name before in local Facebook groups, or maybe we've met through my business, Bloom, where I work with pregnant, expecting, and new parents.
After coordinating and facilitating Mommy Connections East Toronto groups it for a few months, I jumped at the chance to take over as Director because I LOVE it so. It has tapped into my passion and life goal to help women navigate all the tricky womanly transitions of our lives through empowerment, candid compassion, real laughter, and support. Helping women connect in that tricky time of early parenthood – the isolation, anxiety, joy, all of it – gives me such a ridiculous amount of joy. We're all on this crazy ride together, pals!
I have a Journalism degree (I'm a freelance writer and wrote regularly for mothering.com before jumping in here) as well as a Midwifery degree. These two degrees don't match but I'm kind of funny that way and they totally reflect me. I love words and I love caring for women, body and soul. The midwifery life is tricky (to put it mildly) so I turned in my pager to launch Bloom, teaching childbirth, postpartum, and breastfeeding to expecting and new parents, as well as connecting people to resources in our community.
So, that's the bio version of me. Other off-resume, passion stuff: I adore design of all sorts and am blissed out doing up my digs and have a weird love of fonts. I am a mental health advocate/warrior, having lived with depression for most of my life. I am an introvert who hates big crowds but get me in a small group of friends, and I'm the wild one who holds court. Things I aspire to (and sometimes succeed at): daily exercise, reading, writing, laughing more than crying, honesty. Things I'm actually really good at: jazz hands, making people laugh, compassion, and candour, and self-work. Things I ain't so good at: getting laundry done all in one go, walking into parties by myself, flossing daily.
You can also find me at Bloom.
So looking forward to hanging with you!

Norway's agricultural emissions
Norway's agricultural emissions have declined, but the reasons are interesting.Learn more »
Norway, along with every other country in the world (apart from the USA), has signed up to the Paris Agreement, which calls for all parties to work towards achieving the goal of limiting our emissions of greenhouse gases, gases that lead to global warming.
But how has Norway been doing so far, up until the Paris Agreement was signed in late 2015? This article will discuss Norway's emissions, across all sectors and different gases, and point to some of the success stories and some of the challenges.
This post is based around graphs. The first one shows the overall picture of how Norwegian emissions of greenhouse gases have changed between 1990 and 2015, the latest year for which detailed data are available from the Norwegian Statistics Agency, SSB.
First off we see that emissions have basically been flat since the mid-1990s. A few ups and downs, but basically flat at around 50-55 million tonnes (Mt) of CO2-equivalent (CO2e) emissions per year. (CO2e is a measure used to combine different gases together as to the equivalent amount of CO2.)
The figure below shows exactly the same data in the form of a line graph, and here we can more easily see the development of each of these sectors over time.
First of all we see that the three main sectors are Transport, Oil and Gas (production), and Industry. We also see that these three sectors have very different trends. Transport emissions have increased since 1990, although they've flattened out in the last 8-10 years. Oil and gas production emissions (emissions from Norway's extraction and production of crude oil and natural gas) have increased sharply since 1990, but again been relatively flat for the last ten years. Industry emissions have declined markedly.
Don't worry, I discuss all of these sectors in much more detail below.
Agriculture is the next-largest sector by emissions, and its emissions have hardly changed at all since 1990. There are some interesting stories hidden in that apparent constancy.
The remaining sectors in Norway are small. Emissions from energy supply, large in most countries, are low in Norway because of the almost total reliance on hydropower for electricity generation. But notice there was a bump around 2010, and emissions are higher now than they were.
Emissions from buildings (largely heating) have been declining, and are now about half what they were in 1990. Emissions from waste has also been declining, while emissions from 'Other' sectors have been gradually increasing.
The figure below shows the total transport emissions divided up into the available sub-categories, with the most important ones labelled.
The bottom of the figure shows the transition from petrol engines to diesel engines in cars, following the government's incentivisation of diesel cars. These incentives were put in place at the time when we learnt that diesel cars are less polluting and more efficient. Remember, this was before we learnt that they are more polluting and less efficient.
But when we look at the total for cars, the total emissions have increased only very slightly, from about 5.5 Mt to about 5.8 Mt over this period. This is despite the total kilometres travelled in Norway for petrol and diesel cars having increased by over 16% just from 2005 to 2015. The average on-road emissions of new cars sold in Norway has declined from about 200 gCO2/km in 2001 to 140 gCO2/km in 2015.
If emissions from cars are not causing the increase in the Transport sector's emissions, then what is? The figure shows us that emissions from both heavy diesel vehicles and tractors/heavy machinery have increased, and these are driving Transport emissions up. Farmers are buying larger tractors (the share of imported new tractors over 130 horsepower increased from 6% in 2001 to 53% in 2016), and increased construction in Norway's growing economy means more and more heavy machinery.
Norway is a significant producer of both oil and gas, and we know that when those fuels are eventually burned – mostly outside of Norway – they lead to significant emissions. But why does the extraction of these fuels lead to emissions in Norway?
The figure below shows that by far the two largest sources of emissions in this sector are from the use of natural gas to drive turbines, both offshore on the platforms and onshore. These turbines supply the power necessary to run the platforms, including drilling and pumping.
'Industry' is a bit of a bucket term for a large range of different industrial emissions. Importantly, SSB's use of this term is different to the IPCC term 'Industrial Process emissions'. Here Industry includes all industrial process emissions in addition to stationary energy consumption (combustion of fossil fuels other than for transport) in industrial facilities.
We see here that 'process' emissions from Norway's Aluminium sector have declined strongly. These emissions include CO2, but also perflourocarbons (PFCs) and sulphur hexaflouride (SF6), which result from the process of converting alumium oxide into pure aluminium.
The emissions of PFCs have dropped dramatically, from 3.9 Mt in 1990 to only 190 kt in 2016. This is largely a result of addressing something called the 'anode effect'. Whenever this effect occurs, aluminium production stalls, so reducing the frequency of these events not only reduces emissions but improves efficiency. A win-win.
The third-largest Industry emissions source in 1990, which has decreased significantly, was process emissions from production of Nitric Acid, an ingredient used in nitrogen fertiliser production. In 1990 N2O (lystgass) emissions from production of nitric acid were higher than those from all of agriculture. Emissions have declined because the industry has introduced technology to decompose N2O at the end of the process.
Norwegian industry has produced a detailed roadmap for further reductions in emissions.
I've previously written a full blog post on emissions from Norwegian agriculture, so check that out. But from a glance you can see that half of all agricultural emissions are from ruminant livestock: methane emitted (mostly burped) because of fermentation in their rumens. Sheep and cattle.
Emissions from heating of buildings in Norway are declining as remaining oil-fired heating is replaced with electric heating, with the assistance of government subsidies.
The two major components in the energy supply sector are from electricity production and waste incineration. Waste incineration is included here under Energy Supply because the heat generated is used for both electricity and district heating.
The waste incineration plant at Klemetsrud, Oslo, is the largest of its kind in Norway. Emissions of CO2 from Klemetsrud were approximately flat from 1987–2010, at about 150 kt/yr, but doubled to 300kt in 2012. However, about half of the CO2 emissions from Klemetsrud are from burning biomass (waste organic material). Klemetsrud is one of the three pilot projects in Norway chosen to demonstrate carbon capture and storage (CCS), although funding is currently uncertain.
While Norway's electricity supply comes almost exclusively from hydropower, two gas-powered plants were commissioned in the late 2000s.
First came Kårstø, which was half owned by Statoil and half by Statkraft. It had a capacity of 430 MW, but was mothballed in late 2014 after having operated well below capacity in 2012-14 and losing some 100 million NOK a year.
In 2009, the facility at Mongstad began producing electricity, amid significant controversy. It was only permitted against the promise of CCS being installed at a later date. This plant is now planned for closure at the end of 2018.
Other emissions in this category come from some district heating infrastructure still using fuel oil and LPG.
In the 'Other' sector, the largest contribution by far is from products using flourinated gases, including refrigeration and air conditioning equipment.
Why have these emissions grown so incredibly strongly? When the Montreal Protocol led to the banning of CFCs and HCFCs, previously used in spray aerosols, refrigeration and air conditioning, but highly damaging to the ozone layer, substitutes must be found, and these included the HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons).
Because the new HFCs have substantially less ozone-depleting potential, the ozone layer is slowly recovering. However, HFCs are greenhouse gases. Importantly, CFCs and HCFCs are also greenhouse gases, and in some cases with more warming potential than HFCs. But because CFCs and HCFCs are covered by the Montreal Protocol, an earlier international treaty, they are not covered under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and therefore not included in nations' total greenhouse gas emissions inventories.
The Montreal Protocol is much stricter than the treaties under the UNFCCC (e.g., the Kyoto Protocol), requiring complete cessation of use of the regulated gases by all parties, while the Kyoto Protocol required only partial reductions by a subset of parties (those listed in Annex B of the Protocol).
HFCs are contained within refrigeration and air conditioning systems, but because of leaks during normal operation and also in maintenance, and uncontrolled release at the end of life of the product, HFCs nevertheless escape to the atmosphere and lead to warming.
The observant will note that I haven't discussed emissions from Norwegians' international travel and transportation here. These are excluded from the UNFCCC inventories, and not part of Norway's responsibilities.
The primary reason for this is the difficulty in calculating these emissions. While we know how much fuel Norway supplies for international navigation (shipping) and air transport, a good fraction of that fuel is combusted in transporting non-Norwegians and goods to other markets. There is therefore no agreed method on how to allocate these emissions to individual countries.
What I've described here is where emissions in Norway occur. These emissions are those that Norway is responsible for in international agreements. But that's a different question to what individuals in Norway are responsible for, and what we can do about our own personal carbon footprint. For addressing that question you want to look at the 'consumption-based' emissions accounts.
In Norway, most of the oil and gas is exported. No actions a Norwegian in their role as a consumer could take would have any effect on the emissions resulting from the production of that exported oil and gas. On the flipside, Norwegians import many goods from other countries, and the emissions resulting from their production are not included in the numbers presented in this article, but by most general senses of responsibility should be included in an individual Norwegian's footprint.
I plan to address these questions in a future post.
Much more information about Norway's emissions are presented in the Environment Agency's annual National Inventory Report to the UNFCCC.
See also this article by SSB about what is and what is not covered by their emissions statistics. In particular, note that SSB produces another set of emissions statistics alongside those I've summarised here. That other set shows emissions from Norwegian economic activity, no matter where it happens in the world. The most significant difference is that this other account includes emissions from Norwegian shipping and air transport firms outside of Norway.

A large portrait of Emiliano Sala is displayed outside Nantes' Stade de la Beaujoire
Cardiff have been granted an extension to the deadline to respond to FIFA over Nantes' complaint regarding the Premier League club's refusal to pay Emiliano Sala's transfer fee.
Cardiff recently wrote to Nantes proposing a meeting to discuss issues surrounding the Sala tragedy and planned transfer, in line with FIFA's request for the two clubs to come to a resolution directly.To date, Cardiff have not received a response from Nantes.The club have refused to pay the £15m transfer fee for the striker who was tragically killed in a plane crash two months ago. Neil Warnock attended the funeral of Sala Nantes complained to FIFA – with Cardiff having until April 3 to respond, but that deadline has been extended. Cardiff will argue that Sala's contract had been rejected by the Premier League and was therefore 'null and void'. He had been unable to sign a revised deal before his death on January 21. Cardiff will also claim that further contract clauses – proposed by Nantes – had not been met.Nantes say they are fully compliant with FIFA rules and point to the fact that FIFA registered the International Transfer Certificate on January 29 at 5.30pm.

Creating a Psychoanalytic Mind
A psychoanalytic method and theory
Prices & shipping based on shipping country
Book Description
Bringing a fresh contemporary Freudian view to a number of current issues in psychoanalysis, this book is about a psychoanalytic method that has been evolved by Fred Busch over the past 40 years called Creating a Psychoanalytic Mind. It is based on the essential curative process basic to most psychoanalytic theories - the need for a shift in the patient's relationship with their own mind. Busch shows that with the development of a psychoanalytic mind the patient can acquire the capacity to shift the inevitability of action to the possibility of reflection.
Creating a Psychoanalytic Mind is derived from an increasing clarification of how the mind works that has led to certain paradigm changes in the psychoanalytic method. While the methods of understanding the human condition have evolved since Freud, the means of bringing this understanding to patients in a way that is meaningful have not always followed. Throughout, Fred Busch illustrates that while the analyst's expertise is crucial to the process, the analyst's stance, rather than mainly being an expert in the content of the patient's mind, is primarily one of helping the patient to find his own mind.
Creating a Psychoanalytic Mind will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychotherapists interested in learning a theory and technique where psychoanalytic meaning and meaningfulness are integrated. It will enable professionals to work differently and more successfully with their patients.

Fred Busch is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute, a Geographical Supervising Analyst of the Minnesota Psychoanalytic Institute, and a Visiting Supervisor at the Vermont Psychoanalytic Institute.Dr. Busch has published over 70 articles in psychoanalytic literature, and three books, primarilty on the method and theory of treatment. His work has been translated into seven languages, and he has been invited to present over 160 papers and clinical workshops nationally and internationally.
"Because of its rich clinical vignettes this book would be highly recommended for analysts at all levels of experience and would be an excellent teaching tool for those engaged in educating residents to the complexities of our field." - Francis Baudry, The International Journal of Psychoanalysis
"In my view Fred Busch is an authentically international psychoanalyst not only because of his wide and brilliant culture, but more specifically because of his capacity for dialogue and his special skill in understanding the other's mentality and position: an attitude that creates new spaces, new encounters, new shared visions both in the clinical work and in the scientific interchange. His unique thinking in understanding the psychoanalytic method leads to new insights into our methods of analyzing, based on a thorough theoretical base. It is all on display in his current book, which I recommend most highly."- Stefano Bolognini, M.D., President, International Psychoanalytic Association
"In this stimulating new volume, Fred Busch secures his position as one of our foremost thinkers in contemporary ego psychology. He further elaborates on his life's work and makes surprising connections to thinkers as diverse as Betty Joseph and Andre Green. His central thesis involves the therapeutic action of psychoanalysis, which Busch suggests involves helping the patient to know his mind and to transform action into reflection. In this regard he joins ranks with those who see psychoanalysis as our last bastion of "know thyself" in an era of quick fixes and superficial approaches that eschew a systematic look at how one's mind works. Both experienced analysts and candidates will find much of value in this work. I highly recommend it." - Glen O. Gabbard, MD, Author, Love and Hate in the Analytic Setting
"While American Psychoanalysts have had little impact on psychoanalysis in Latin America, when Fred Busch came to Argentina to speak to us his ideas about psychoanalytic treatment seemed new, yet familiar, and were greatly appreciated. In this richly textured, clearly written book, his perspective allows him to bring together many views that highlight certain paradigm shifts in psychoanalytic treatment, which lead to fresh insights into many technical issues. Analysts' from different perspectives will benefit greatly from studying this text." - Virginia Ungar, M.D., Training and Supervising Analyst, Buenos Aires, Argentina

"THE BIG FOUR" and WHY THEY ARE IMPORTANT
Most Process Service Agencies are familiar with the term Errors and Omissions Insurance, but E & O is only one piece of the insurance puzzle. The following will provide you with some information on what I like to call "The Big Four" and why they should be an important consideration for every owner, manager and firm. While not all policies are alike, most are based upon a foundation of common forms. Upon this foundation of coverage, you will find that each carrier provides additional coverage forms and exclusion forms to the policy. A basic rule of thumb is "if it's not excluded – it's included", but it is vitally important to know what your particular policy will and will not provide protection for. Do you have Assault and Battery included? What about Care Custody and Control of other's property? Lost Key Coverage? Will your business laptop be covered if stolen from your car? What about that expensive digital camera that you use in the course of business? I would encourage you all to take a few minutes, either with or without your agent, to conduct a quick review of you current coverage. How does your overall coverage stack up? Here then are "The Big Four" and their importance.
GENERAL LIABILITY INSURANCE – GL typically provides coverage for unintentional acts of bodily injury, property damage and personal and/or advertising injury. An example of personal injury would be slander, libel and defamation of character, of which claims have been on the rise lately through perceived nuisance suits. Bodily injury might stem from accidental injury to a client or subject through negligence of an employee or uninsured subcontractor. Property damage coverage would trigger should a third-party's property be damaged during the course and scope of work performed. This does not include damage that is auto related, as auto is discussed later in this article. Medical payments are used to "appease" an injured client to avoid a medical claim. Your coverage limit can be used to pay small medical bills and other costs associated with an injury to avoid a liability claim or suit and can be used as a deterrent. Fire Damage is coverage to protect the insured from damage to a premise that you might rent, but do not own and is included in most GL coverage forms. You may want to check your monetary limit, as this coverage varies from carrier to carrier. All of these coverage parts are important aspects of General Liability Insurance and you should not have any excluded. Note – on some Errors & Omission policies that include General Liability, the carrier may exclude Personal and Advertising Injury from the General Liability coverage forms, only to give it back on the Professional Liability side. If you see it excluded form the GL, first check the E & O coverage parts to see if it was added back. This is done so as to not duplicate coverage.
Join others as we discuss this article in our Private Investigator Discussion Forum!
BUSINESS PERSONAL PROPERTY – You should be able to find BOPP policies in a number of markets today. This "package" policy will typically provide you the most bang for the buck and is filled with additional coverages specific to business owners. In the case of loss you will have a specified dollar limit to cover your business property (furniture/fixtures, computers, phone systems, copiers, etc.), valuable papers, business income and extra expense (limits to replace lost income and get you up and back in business fast), employee dishonesty, as well as, a plethora of other business specific coverages. It is important to make sure you are carrying adequate limits to protect your business assets. Your agent can help you with this determination. In addition, your classification is extremely important. Some classes carry general liability and some do not. For example, an attorney's office class may come with GL and may have an option for Hired and Non-Owned Auto, which is terrific, but if a claim arises, triggered by those coverage parts that are misclassified, there is a chance your claim will not be paid. In the end, this would amount to paying premium for nothing. It is important to be working with an agent that understands your business, so that such pitfalls may be avoided.
PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY – Professional Liability is a synonymous term for both Malpractice Insurance and Errors and Omissions Insurance. This coverage is triggered when you commit an error or omission in your professional scope of work that causes financial damage to a third party. Examples of claims would be missing a filing deadline due to your direct negligence (getting lost on the way to courthouse, losing the document, etc), filing a document in the wrong court venue, serving the wrong subject, having a document lodged between your car seat and not noticing until the statue has run, errors on a proof of service, failing to conduct a proper foreclosure sale, posting a notice on the wrong property, etc. Remember, anyone can sue for anything – whether real, perceived or frivolous, claims can and do arise. If/when that claim does come in – who would you rather pay the defense costs – you – or your insurance carrier?
AUTO LIABILITY – Hired/Non-Owned Auto coverage is a very important factor to consider for any owner of a Process Service Agency. It can be added to some GL policies, can be purchased in conjunction with most Commercial Auto policies, and/or can be purchased as a monoline product (a stand alone policy). H/NAO is excess auto liability for claims that name the firm in a law suit for the actions of non-owned autos used for business purposes. Nonowned auto does not apply to corporate officers of the first named insured. In addition, it is coverage for the firm and does not extend damages to the employee/subcontractor. A typical example might be John/Jane Doe process server who is involved in an at-fault auto accident. Because he was "working" at the time of the accident, it is likely that your firm will be named in the suit. This coverage should provide you defense, as well as, cover any monetary damages above and beyond your server's auto limits. Another important issue with Auto Insurance is that personal lines will rarely cross over to commercial use. It is vitally important for you and all of your field agents to not only have adequate limits of insurance, but that you/they have a "business use endorsement" on your/their auto policy. If it is found that you are using your vehicle for business use, your personal lines auto policy may decline to pay for damages. There you have it – The Big Four – as always, I encourage you to evaluate your current overall commercial coverage and shop around for your insurance needs. There ARE options and differences in coverage and pricing from carrier to carrier. If you make the decision to purchase insurance, take the time to make it an educated one, paying only what you need and only FOR what you need.
Note: The above coverage topics are what I consider to be the four most important, but are certainly not professed to be the ONLY coverages needed or available. Other topics to research or ask your agent about are Crime Insurance, Employment Liability (wrongful firing, sexual harassment, etc), Employee Benefits, Additional Insured requirements, Umbrella, Building (usually if you own), Blanketing coverages and more.

Audi's most powerful S8 ever has made a return in a couple of official promotional videos.
Audi's most powerful S8 ever has made a return in a couple of official promotional videos.
The A8 (D4) is on its way to a well-deserved retirement, but Audi wants to prove the current hot S8 still has some life in it by launching a higher specification Plus version which ups the power ante to a massive 605 PS (445 kW) and 700 Nm (750 Nm with overboost) generated by the upgraded V8 twin-turbo 4.0-liter engine.
It looks tastefully restrained, but in reality this is a real beast since the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) task is accomplished in a mere 3.8 seconds before topping out at an electronically-capped 155 mph (250 km/h), not too shabby for a car of this size and weight. Potential customers driving regularly on the unrestricted areas of the autobahn will probably be interested to hear Audi can optionally bump that limiter to 189.5 mph (305 km/h).
It's the closest thing the current A8 generation will get to a full-blown RS8 and for most people it will probably be enough. It costs €145,200 in Germany where it will go on sale this November packing as standard matrix LED headlights and bespoke 21-inch alloy wheels wrapped around in chunky 275/35 tires.

A Taliban suicide bomber and six gunmen attacked the Afghan parliament on Monday, wounding at least 31 people and sending a plume of black smoke across Kabul, as a second district in two days fell to the Islamist group in the north.
The attack on the symbolic centre of power, one of the most brazen in years, along with a series of Taliban gains elsewhere, raise questions about the Nato-trained Afghan security forces' ability to cope.
"A suicide bomber blew himself up just outside the parliament building and several fighters took positions in a building close to parliament," said Ebadullah Karimi, spokesman for Kabul police.
Afghan security officials said the attackers were unable to enter the parliament itself and two gunmen were reportedly killed on sight.
Sediq Sediqqi, interior ministry spokesman, said the remaining Taliban fighters were fended off by members of the Afghan National Security Forces stationed around the parliament building and fled to a nearby building.
After nearly two hours of fighting, security officials said the Afghan Special Forces were able to kill the remaining gunmen.
A live broadcast showed lawmakers evacuating the building shortly after the car bomb was detonated, around 10.30am local time.
Violence has spiralled in Afghanistan since the departure of most foreign forces at the end of last year as the insurgents push to take territory more than 13 years after the US-led military intervention that toppled the Taliban from power.
The ministry of public health reported 31 civilians, including five women and three children suffered injuries from the attack.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid claimed responsibility.
"We have launched an attack on parliament as there was an important gathering to introduce the country's defence minister," he said by phone.
Monday's attack marked the first major attack by the Taliban since the start of the holy month of Ramadan. The group had denied requests for a ceasefire during the month of fasting.
"The attack against parliament, for which the Taliban have claimed responsibility, is a clear and deliberate affront to democracy in Afghanistan," said Tadamichi Yamamoto, the UN secretary-general's deputy special representative for Afghanistan.
The withdrawal of foreign forces and a reduction in US air strikes have allowed Taliban fighters to launch several major attacks in important Afghan provinces.
The second district to fall to the Taliban on Monday was in the northern province of Kunduz. Officials said it fell after urgently needed reinforcements failed to arrive.
The Taliban captured Dasht-e-Archi district a day after hundreds of militants fought their way to the centre of the adjacent district of Chardara.
"The Taliban managed to take it over this morning as the area has been surrounded for days," Nasruddin Saeedi, the district governor who escaped to the provincial capital, Kunduz city, told Reuters by telephone.
"They are many foreign fighters with heavy machine guns. We have asked for reinforcements, but none arrived."
Afghan soldiers were preparing a counterattack to retake both districts, another local official said.
Monday's heavy fighting was just three km (two miles) from the governor's compound.
