G Deck
- Located at the stern of the ship on E Deck, the Alexandria Restaurant is one of two main dining rooms on Aurora. As the name of the restaurant suggests, its sumptuous décor draws inspiration from the culture, colours and shapes of ancient Egypt. Club Dining here is all about enjoying the convivial atmosphere and the company of your table companions. Entering through the glass etched double doors you are greeted by an elegant and welcoming dining room. Large windows frame views of the ship's wake and a glistening ocean. Carefully crafted dishes are brought to your table. And world-class cuisine rounds off a dining experience to be savoured in every sense.
Located on E Deck deck
- Positioned midships on E Deck, Medina Restaurant is one of two great formal dining rooms on Aurora. Reflecting P&O Cruises traditional connections with North Africa and the Middle East, Medina was designed in a Moorish style, utilising brilliant colours and shapes from ages gone by to create a sophisticated look for today's modern passenger. Make your grand entrance for dinner on the featured double stairway, with its stunning backdrop of vibrantly coloured stained glass, as it sweeps down into the restaurant from the Promenade Deck. Seating over 500 people, you can find a romantic table for two or a party table for eight. With large windows on either side you'll enjoy the magnificent views both day and night, as you dine on the Medina's superb cuisine.
Located on E Deck deck
- The Orangery, an informal self-service restaurant, is located in the aft section of Lido Deck with easy access to the surrounding decks and facilities. This large eatery opens early and provides full English breakfasts, extensive buffets for lunch and afternoon tea. With walls covered in vibrant modern murals, this colourful, light and airy room has a casual atmosphere, and at 80 feet above the water line, The Orangery affords spectacular sea views. In the evening, softer lighting and the opening of a dance floor transform The Orangery into the perfect venue for a themed dinner.
Located on Lido Deck deck
Art Classes
- Aurora houses a substantial art collection. Showcasing numerous British artists, her artworks adorn cabins, decks and public spaces. But if you would like to purchase a piece of your own, her art gallery is the place to come. Located on Promenade Deck, you can peruse numerous paintings, prints and memorabilia of varying styles. Later, head along to the Art Auction to bid for your favourite piece. Or to simply enjoy the excitement of the gavel coming down on piece after piece. Their art auctioneers will be on hand throughout your cruise to host the art auctions and offer you their expertise.
Located on Promenade Deck
- Midships on Lido Deck is the Aurora's largest swimming pool, the Crystal Pool. One of its most striking features is the sliding, clear glass Skydome, which allows swimming in any weather. It keeps out the chilly breezes and lets in the warm sunshine. The Crystal Pool is over 32 feet long and 19 feet wide and has two adjoining jacuzzis, as well as a conveniently located bar. There are plenty of lounge chairs around the deck of the pool on two levels, as the Sun Deck above also overlooks the pool.
Located on Lido Deck
- Located on A Deck and cleverly sheltered from the wind by the Lido and Sun Decks, you'll find the Riviera Pool. At 29 feet long and 19 feet wide, it's the second largest pool on Aurora. The overflow from the pool forms a gentle waterfall, which runs down to the next level, where a tempting jacuzzi waits. The full-service Riviera Bar is conveniently close and overlooks the entire pool area, and sun worshippers will enjoy the three terraces full of deck chairs that surround the pool.
Located on Sun Deck
Stage Shows
- The 660-seat Curzon Theatre is located in the forward part of the ship on Promenade Deck. A traditional theatre colour scheme of rich red, blue, gold and maroon, combined with Tudor rose motifs and heraldic designs, was used to bring something of the atmosphere of Shakespeare's England onto a world-class superliner. Yet the theatre has all the very latest technical advantages. With its high-tech lighting and sound equipment and its revolving, 74-feet-wide stage, every performance has a West End glitter and the performers love this theatre as much as you will. And with a different musical spectacular every night, you are sure to be there time and time again.
Located on Promenade Deck
- The Playhouse, is located midships on D Deck, next to the Photo Gallery. This fantastic cinema screens feature films and recent releases throughout the day and into the evening. You can watch films that are so new, that they haven't yet reached your local cinema at home. There are 213 spacious and comfortable chairs and good visibility for everyone. In addition to films, The Playhouse is also the venue for classical recitals, lectures, port enhancement talks, and much more.
Located on D Deck
Sports and Spa
- Midships and just forward of the Riviera Pool on A Deck is Weights & Measures, Aurora's Gym. This hi-tech facility offers a superb range of the latest cardiovascular and weight-training equipment, as well as a full exercise studio. A trained and sympathetic instructor will help you find the correct fitness programme for your age and capability and will check that you are exercising safely and effectively. After a rigorous session in the gym, you can take the spiral staircase up to the Oasis Spa on the Lido Deck above and enjoy a relaxing massage or sauna.
Located on A Deck
Bars and Lounges
- Midships on Promenade Deck lies Masquerade – the glitziest nightclub afloat. Very chic and ultra-modern, this is the place for late night action. The futuristic décor and video wall create a backdrop for a fast paced evening.

It's very current, very exciting and simply very brilliant.
Located on Promenade Deck
- Located at the stern, high on Lido Deck, the Pennant Bar adds a taste of the tropics to Aurora. This outdoor island bar over looks the ships fabulous tiered decks and is the centre of many lunchtime activities, including themed lunches like the much loved and anticipated Neptune's Buffet. In the evening it is the perfect location to watch the ship's wake as it stretches out and winds its way into the sunset.
Located on Lido Deck
- High up on Sun Deck at the forward end of the ship you will find The Crow's Nest. At 105 feet above the waterline, this stylish cocktail bar is higher than the bridge and affords the ship's most amazing views. By day you can watch the glistening sea as the world floats by in this comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. But as evening draws in The Crow's Nest comes into its own; with a light tickling of the ivories to set the mood, there's no better vantage point from which to enjoy a dramatic sunset at sea.
Located on Sun Deck
- Located on Promenade Deck, just forward of the central lifts and next to Charlie's is Mayfair. This elegant boutique provides the most recent fashions in men's and ladies' formal wear, sparkling designer jewellery, and the biggest names in perfumes and cosmetics. Friendly shop assistants will ensure that you are dressed to the nines, with all the necessary accessories and wearing your favourite scent. You are on holiday, go ahead and spoil yourself!
Located on D Deck
- Just aft of midships on Promenade Deck is the Monte Carlo Club Casino, Aurora's very own slice of sophisticated glamour from the Riviera.

Located on Promenade Deck
Kids Club
- Just forward of the Terrace Pool on the port side of D Deck, is Toybox. Your 2-4 year olds can get involved in imaginative play, singing, colouring and drawing and loads of fun and games.

Once you have embarked the ship, the onboard credit will be applied to your onboard account to use towards any onboard purchases. Any unused portion of the Onboard Credit will expire at midnight on the last night of your cruise and is not redeemable for cash at any time.
'Guarantee' (GTY) Bookings
From time to time, we may offer you the option of making what we call a 'Guarantee (GTY) booking. This means you may book a stateroom of a guaranteed category type (Inside, Outside, Balcony) on your chosen ship and cruise. However, the exact grade, number and location of the stateroom on the ship will be allocated at the cruise lines discretion and at any time until checking in at the Port. Once your GTY stateroom has been allocated to you, we are unable to accept any changes requested by you. The benefits of a GTY stateroom are that after your booking has been confirmed, the cruise line may (at their discretion) upgrade your stateroom to a higher classed category to that originally booked at no extra charge to you. In any event, you are 'guaranteed' the minimum category you decide to book at the time of the cruise including obstructed view cabins.
If travelling with Family and Friends where you require cabins to be near one another we strongly recommend for you not to book on a Guarantee.
We cannot guarantee your cabins will be assigned near one another, on the same deck, same side or forward/aft on the ship nor accept any requests.
Complimentary Upgrades
Depending on any last minute availability the cruise lines will automatically upgrade cabins to higher categories. The upgrades can place you towards the front of the ship, midships or at the back of the ship and not necessarily on a higher deck level (i.e.: Insides Deck 10 may be upgraded to Ocean view Deck 5). As the cruise lines cannot upgrade every booking, you should book a category in which you are happy to sail.
Once the upgrade has been assigned, should you dislike the cabin location we are unable to accept any changes or requests and cannot be reversed.
If travelling with family and friends where you require cabins to be near one another we strongly recommend for you to decline the upgrades. The cruise line do not guarantee all of the cabins will be upgraded, or that they will be upgraded near one another.
Future Cruise Credits
While we are happy to apply your Future Cruise Credits from the cruiselines to your booking with us, this may affect your online discounted pricing. We will still do our best to provide competitive pricing based on the discount we can offer on the new cruise fare once the future cruise credits have been applied to your booking. Please note if Future Cruise Credits are applied after your deposit has been paid may affect your final balance.

Parents/guardians are responsible for children at all times. Children under the age of 16 years must not be left unaccompanied on the ship whilst visiting a port of call. Infants aged between 6 months and 2 years must remain with their parent/guardian at all times. If a child displays dangerous or disruptive behaviour, the 'Rights of the Captain' will be applied to both parent/guardian and child.
Requirements to travel
Passports, visas and vaccinations are your responsibility. Without the necessary passport, visas and/or vaccinations local authorities may deny you boarding, prevent you from going ashore, issue a fine or deny the ship entry into the port. Passports are required and must be valid for a minimum of 6 months beyond the date of the cruise return. In addition, travel on our cruises will not revalidate an Australian re-entry visa.
Alcohol & gambling
We are committed to the responsible service of alcohol. There may be times when we consider it appropriate to refuse the service of alcohol to a passenger for any reason. Any alcohol purchased ashore may be collected at the gangway for safe keeping and will be returned to you on the last day of your cruise. Passengers must be 18 years of age or older to purchase and drink alcohol or gamble on board P&O Cruises ships at all times. Passengers aged 16 and 17 years may be bought beer, cider or wine to drink with a meal in the restaurants when accompanied by an adult. Government issued photo identification may be requested.
Your health
We care about the health and safety of our passengers. To assist, please advise us at the time of booking if you have any condition that requires medical attention, medication or special treatment. We may also ask you to complete a health questionnaire.
If a passenger has a condition that we decide may seriously affect the enjoyment, health or safety of themselves or any other person on board, we can refuse or cancel a booking, where necessary. We will give reasonable consideration when reaching this decision and will advise you as soon as possible. Provided you have given us all relevant information about the condition at the time of booking, you will be entitled to a full refund if we cancel your booking on the basis of this condition.

Rights of the Captain
If a passenger seriously affects the safety, well-being or enjoyment of themselves or any other person on board, the Captain has the right to confine, sedate or disembark the passenger. In such cases, we are not responsible for any expenses including your return home. In addition, you will not be entitled to any refunds. While the Captain will always act reasonably in these circumstances, you accept that the safety, well-being and enjoyment of everyone on board comes first.
Leaving the cruise early
If you are required or choose to leave the cruise for any reason, we are not responsible for any expenses, including your return home. This also applies if you do not return to the ship after a port visit in time for sailing. If we assist you with any costs, you will need to repay us on your return. In addition, you will not be entitled to any refunds.
Legal matters
In the unlikely event you have reason to take legal action, you agree to use all reasonable efforts to bring the issue to our attention as soon as possible.
Where permitted by consumer laws and other laws, we shall not be liable for:

• Sickness, injury or death, unless caused by our proven negligence.
In addition, our liability will be reduced in proportion to any negligence or fault on your part.
This contract is governed by the laws of New South Wales. You agree that any action you bring against us will be heard in New South Wales, unless consumer laws allow you to bring an action elsewhere in Australia.

You agree that Carnival plc holds the benefit of this promise for itself and also on behalf of the other parties it is intended to protect. If you do take action against any of those parties you will be required to compensate for the full amount of the actual damage or loss sustained, and any costs and expenses incurred by Carnival plc and the other person or persons against whom you claim.

Watch These Animals Sticking Their Huge Heads Inside Car Windows — Daily Distraction
Animals are often curious by nature. So it's probably a decent idea to keep your window closed if there's, say, a giraffe around.

The eternal war between felines and canines continues.
Airports may be a frequent source of massive frustration—just ask anyone who had to travel cross-country this past week—but sometimes they provide us with moments that just melt your heart.
Realistically speaking, turkeys don't stand a chance this Thanksgiving. But that hasn't stopped these fowl-tempered (sorry) beasts from fighting back against their would-be devourers, us humans.
As our stomachs prepare for Thursday's massive caloric intake, let's take a look at how a few of our animal pals do it.
Just in case you need another warning: deep-frying turkeys can be dangerous. And here's proof.
Baby animals and baby bottles—that pretty much sums it up.
The edge of the bed just kinda sneaks up on you sometimes, doesn't it?
It's getting colder and colder out there, which means more ice to slip around on and play on and, inevitably, fall on.
It's harder to successfully karate-chop something than the movies make it look.

How To Tell If You Inherited Emotional Trauma + How To Let It Go
With new discoveries in epigenetics now making headlines, many of us are asking an important question: What are my children really inheriting? Can my baggage, the unfinished business I don't deal with, pass on to my kids? Without knowing it, could I be hurting them?
To answer this comprehensively, we need to look at the science. The newest research in epigenetics tells us that you and I can inherit gene changes from traumas that our parents and grandparents experienced. It goes like this: When a trauma occurs, our bodies make a physiological change to better manage the stress.
This adaptive change can then be passed down to our children and grandchildren biologically preparing them to deal with similar trauma. This can be a good thing, unless, of course, the inherited changes create even more stress.
If our grandparents, for example, were traumatized from living in a war-torn country—explosions going off, people getting killed, the rattle of gunfire close by—they could pass on a survivor skill set to us—a body on hyper-alert, reflexes to react quickly to loud noises, and other such protective responses. This skill set would be helpful were we to also live in a country at war. However, living in a safe environment where this inheritance isn't useful, the constant hypervigilance can create havoc in our bodies.
So, here's the bad news: Yes, it's true. Our parents' and grandparents' pain—their fears, their angers, their grief, their shutdowns—can all unwittingly become ours, a legacy we can perpetuate in our family. And here's the sad part: Few of us ever make the link between our issues—our unexplained fear, anxiety, and depression—and what happened to our family members in a previous generation.
Instead, we believe that we're the source of our problem, that something must be wrong with us, or broken inside us, that makes us feel the way we do.
And it doesn't end there. These unconscious patterns, along with whatever business we leave unfinished, can then be passed on to our children, and even to their children. What could be more painful than to see our children suffering, knowing that they continue to feel the pain we've left unattended?
Is there any good news? Absolutely. There are actions we can take that can help break the cycle.
Here's the short list of things you can do:
1. Heal your own stuff.
Reconcile your broken relationships with your parents as well as with your child's other parent. When we find someone's behavior challenging, it's helpful to consider the traumatic events in his or her family history. Remember, the residue of pain can pass forward. And children, because of their great innocence and loyalty, are easy targets.
Children can unconsciously carry what's unresolved between their parents and mirror it in their own relationships. Or (as we're learning from epigenetics), they can relive what's unresolved behind the parents.
2. Shake the family tree and see what falls out.
What family secrets have been hidden? What stories didn't get told? What traumas have never fully healed? It can be important to know these things, especially if we're unconsciously reliving elements of traumas that don't belong to us.
3. Tell your kids what you know about the traumas in your family.
Tell them the terrible things that happened to you and whatever you know about what happened to your parents and your grandparents. They could be the unwitting recipients of painful feelings from the past. When you tell them what tragedies smolder in the family history, it can come as a great relief to them—especially if they make the connection that they've been carrying what belongs to you or to your parents or grandparents.
I once worked with a guy who unconsciously attempted to atone for the crimes his grandfather, a paid assassin, had committed. My client had attempted suicide three times. Finding himself still alive after the third attempt, he sought help. When I pointed out that he had been attempting to pay the ultimate price for crimes he never committed, he turned to me and said, "I don't have to die? You mean it's not me who needs to die?"
I've found that if we ignore the past, it can come back to haunt us. Yet when we explore it, we don't always have to repeat it. We can break the cycle of suffering, so that our children can be free from having to live our pain in their lives.

Previewing a possible future direction for the next SsangYong midsize SUV, the SIV-2 made its world debut in Geneva.
The study is an evolution of the SIV-1, showcased at the same event two years ago, designed under the brand's new "Dynamic Motion" styling language, which is characterized by more prominent lines on the body.
Inside you'll find a mix of Alcantara, wood and aluminum, with the Korean company boasting about mounting speakers within the bucket seats for an improved surround-sound experience and the use of "cutting-edge IT devices connecting with the latest technology available".
SsangYong claims that the SIV-2, which is 4,440 mm long, 1,855 mm wide and 1,640 mm tall, riding on a 2,675 mm long wheelbase, has the necessary features to be further developed to create alternative models with powertrains such as HEV, PHEV and EV.
In Geneva, it was fitted with a 1.5-liter direct-injected, turbocharged petrol engine, combined with a 10kW electric motor-generator that takes its juice from a 500Wh lithium-ion battery.

Q&A | Jens Horstmann, Co-Founder
At Salt Flats, our purpose is to make businesses smarter and faster, while helping turn new ideas into business innovations. Our members are the forward-thinking leaders who understand that the best way to prepare for the future is to create the future.
We're excited to introduce you to our Salt Flats team! We come from diverse backgrounds, are experienced in disruption, and have the expertise to collaborate with you to build your company. This week, we'll hear from our co-founder, Jens Horstmann, pioneer in semiconductors, computer aided design tools, computer systems, early B2B online and mobile commerce, location-based services and automated retail, with over 30+ years of experience in the executive, technology and engineering roles.
Q: What's your background?
I have been an entrepreneur since high school when I founded my first company in Germany doing analog systems and sensors over 35 years ago. My training in electrical engineering and computer science allowed me to apply problem solving technics to technology innovation. I've enjoyed working with students and young startups as much as seasoned executives in Fortune 100 enterprises. Roles include being a board member, investor, founder, inventor, engineer, CEO and CTO. I have a passion for aviation and often compare the complexity of risk taking and venturing to dealing with the uncertainty and need for real-time decision making while piloting.
Q: Tell us about some career highlights.
I'm extremely lucky to have been part of an exciting journey through innovation, technology and disruption over 30 years in Silicon Valley. I've always strived to be a driver behind disrupting entire industries, and my first opportunity was LSI Logic, the creator and leader of Application Specific Integrated Circuits that enabled a new breed of computers. The design of system-on-a-chip solutions and later the design tools that needed to be invented to harness this new won ability spawned entire markets allowing scientists, engineers, military applications, early building automation and yes, even Hollywood movie makers, to leverage microchips. My role as an applications engineer gave me deep insights into how people were using our technology to disrupt their industries.
Perhaps the young company that leveraged these advances more than anyone else was Sun Microsystems. It allowed them to practically displace billion dollar companies like Digital Equipment Company (DEC), Silicon Graphics, IBM mainframes, and Cray Computers. By putting what people considered "impossible" in the form factor of a pizza box, we shrunk clunky computers and by reducing the price 10-fold, made them accessible to a wide audience of engineers. A multi-billion dollar company was born in just a few years. Once again, I was lucky to work with one of Sun's founders as microchip designer, systems engineer, architect and senior manager. We not only forced disruption by introducing faster networking, storage, etc. but through a highly methodical design approach were able to crank out a new computer generation every year, something that previously took 3 – 4 times as long.
The arrival of the publicly accessible internet in 1993 with the advent of a new breed of data-centers (now called Cloud) triggered new disruption that required different networking, graphics chips and tools. Even Sun, in our mind, wasn't inventing fast enough. A flurry of startups and now multi-billion dollar companies like Nvidia and Google were the result. I directed one of them, X1 Corporation, applying Machine Learning to Wall Street to assess risk and make certain predictions for the likes of Paul Tudor Jones and Swiss Bank. We were about 20 years too early but managed to repurpose our assets, now called pivot, into the travel industry.
A decade after leaving Sun I found myself taking on yet another market ready for disruption: the movie distribution business dominated by. For several years people had talked about video-on-demand, yet the leading startup Netflix was almost bankrupt in 2002. It occurred to us that the market was ready for retail automation and self-service. A red kiosk, later named Redbox in partnership with McDonalds, was created by a small startup called DVDPlay that was housed in Netflix's old headquarter. My meeting with Jim Keyes, the CEO of Blockbuster at the time, to discuss RedBox and reading his subsequent quote just months before his bankruptcy that "Neither Redbox (by now a billion dollar business) nor Netflix are even on the radar screen in terms of competition" was a key realization that most large enterprises don't see the future even if it's staring them in the face and that innovation may come from startups or unsuspected places.
Since the sale of DVDPlay and Redbox I've co-founded Crestlight Ventures, a venture capital firm helping startups to navigate the benefits (branding and distribution) and challenges of partnering with large corporations. The need to "produce" a startup or venture with heavy handed and agile project management, flexible funding and good IP management that both startups and enterprises can benefit from became key ingredients to Crestlight's model.
The idea of a place where corporate, universities, startups and venture capital collaborate to explore, experiment, test and then turn some ideas into successful new business models was born – the Innovation House.

Exporting Medical Devices
The rules that companies must follow when exporting medical devices depend on whether or not their devices have been approved or cleared by the Food and Drug Administration.
Medical devices that are legally marketed in the U.S. may be exported to anywhere in the world without prior FDA notification or approval. Devices that have not been approved or cleared in the U.S. must follow the export provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act.
Depending on which section of the FD&C Act a firm is exporting under, it may need to request an export permit letter or export certificate, or it may need to submit a simple notification. This webpage contains information on exporting legally marketed and unapproved devices, with detailed instructions for obtaining export certificates and permits, as well as submitting simple notifications.
Firms exporting products from the U.S. are often asked by foreign customers or foreign governments to supply proof of the products' status as regulated by the FDA. An export certificate is a document prepared by FDA that has information about a product's regulatory or marketing status in the U.S.
A Certificate to Foreign Government is the most frequently requested type of export certificate, but a Certificate of Exportability may also be requested when exporting devices under sections 801(e)(1) and 802 of the FD&C Act or when exporting Non-Clinical Research-Use-Only devices.
Please note that, in order to obtain a certificate, the product must be exported from the U.S.
CDRH Export Certification and Tracking System (CECATS)
CECATS is a voluntary electronic system that allows manufacturers and initial importers to request export documents online as an alternative to paper submissions. The system offers several benefits, including a reduction in certificate processing time, savings on material and mailing costs for paper applications, real-time validation of firm-specific data, and status updates of the request.
Requests that can be submitted through CECATS, include:
- Requesting Export Certificates such as:
- Requesting an Export Permit Letter under Section 801(e)(2)
- Submitting Simple Notification under Section 802
CECATS may be accessed after logging into the FDA Unified Registration and Listing Systems (FURLS). Firms must have a FURLS account ID and password to access this system. Consult the "New User" section of the FURLS website for instructions on setting up an account.

How was your weekend?
A performance piece that reflects on how much information I divulge and how much of the whole story is being told. On the wall behind me were sticky notes which instructed the viewer to "Ask me about..." with different key words on each. I continuously wrote ask me about my weekend on cue cards and only stopped when delivering the preplanned answer.

Not all NBA games are created equal, of course, and it gets dangerous if you start extrapolating wildly off of only the easy ones and only trying to find specific strengths and weaknesses. Dangerous!
Wins at gawd-awful Oklahoma City and at home tonight against road-weary Milwaukee aren't the proof of much of anything for the Warriors.
Did you know that tonight was the first time this season that the Warriors faced a road team on the back-end of a back-to-back? Yes, it was.
I didn't know it until it dawned on me that the Bucks were exhausted and I hadn't seen a team come into Oracle looking like that this year, so I looked it up: Back to back. Exhausted. (FYI: Houston comes to Oracle on Friday fully rested.)
But there is some kind of mini-trend developing for the Warriors that I must point out:
Corey Maggette didn't play again tonight, resting his sore hamstrings, and the Warriors won again. As they did in Oklahoma City. As they have done several other times before.
In fact, the Warriors are 4-2 when Maggette does not play. They're 3-13 when he does. Interesting, no?
Again, we have to be careful when selecting individual games and assigning specific judgements. For instance, OKC and back-to-back Milwaukee are not significant events, unless they'd been Warriors losses.
The Warriors lost at home to Memphis and at Sacramento earlier in the year without Maggette. They beat Minnesota and Denver at home without him.
It's a small sample size. But it's interesting. It bears watching. Reminds me of the with/without Troy Murphy dynamic in his final few seasons with the Warriors.
I wondered about the team's passing with and without Maggette, since he's such an obvious ball-stopper and the Warriors have looked better flicking the ball around the past two games without him.
Not a huge difference in the assist totals, though: 19.2 team assists per game with Maggette, 19.7 assists without, and that's due to the 27 put up tonight against a thrashed Bucks roster.

One of the most popular roofing materials on the market is metal roofing in Columbia, SC. If you need to install or replace the roof of your Columbia home, you should give metal roofing serious consideration. Not all roofers have the skill and experience necessary to assist you in this regard.
At Bauer Roofing, our Columbia roofing contractors have the knowledge and experience necessary to help you install a beautiful and highly functional metal roof on your home. In order to assist you in this process, our experts have provided the following information about the many benefits of metal roofing systems.
If you want to install a beautiful and long lasting metal roof on your Columbia home, call Bauer Roofing today. Our staff would be happy to take your call, to answer any of your questions, and to schedule your appointment today.
Benefits of Metal Roofing
By far, the best benefit of a metal roofing system is longevity. Whereas other roofing materials can wear out in 20 to 25 years, metal roofing can last over 50. When you hire the right roofer and choose the correct materials, you can confidently know that you are installing the last roof you will ever need. Our Columbia roofing contractors would be honored to assist you in this regard.
Metal Roofing is Energy Efficient
Another reason that metal roofing is a fantastic long term investment is that these materials enhance the energy performance of your home. With the correct coating, a metal roof will reflect a large amount of infrared light back into the atmosphere. This radiant heat is largely responsible for the warming of your property during the summer time.
Metal roofing also has a "dead space" between its surface and your property. This extra layer of insulation also helps to keep your home cooler during the summer. Throughout the service life of your roof, you will enjoy reduced cooling and energy bills. With the help of our Columbia experts, you will make the absolute most out of your investment.
Environmentally Friendly Additions to Your Property
When you decide to install a metal roof on your Columbia home, you can take an extra sense of pride from your project for two reasons. First, the enhanced energy efficiency described above also lowers you and your family's impact on the environment. Second, metal roofs are made out of completely recyclable materials. Many of the roofs that we install are made up of 95% or more recycled content.
If you would like to learn more about the benefits of metal roofing in Columbia, call (803) 994-9498 or complete our online request form.

Wealthy people who fall under suspicion of criminal activity will have to explain before any charges how they came by their assets under a new anti-money laundering initiative announced by the British government on Thursday.
The plans will also increase the responsibility of businesses to report suspicious financial activity and introduce a criminal offense of illicit enrichment — targeting public officials who exploit their power.
Investigators will be able to designate a company as being "of concern in relation to money laundering", a move that would force banks, law firms and accountants to use special measures when doing business with them.
The move is the latest in a series of steps the government has taken in the past year to beef up transparency and law enforcement powers in Britain's financial system.

Another reason I'm glad I don't live in Californina -- asking a kid to remove an American flag from his bike "for his own safety". The idea has me so livid I just sputter when I try to articulate it. It is infurating on countless levels.
Compare with what Sweet Daughter brought home from school yesterday:
I'm sure she wasn't the only kid in her class that got to say that her Daddy and both grandfathers were veterans (although I bet she's the only one with a grandfather who fought in WWII). I don't think telling a kid to take his American flag off his bike would go over very well here.

Check it out, my project is on the Technion homepage! http://www1.technion.ac.il/
Adapting science education - 21st century technology, is a joint project of the Technion and the Abrams Hebrew Academy (AHA), a collaborative community school belongs to the Jewish Federation of Philadelphia in the U.S.. Due to shortage of teachers of Science and Technology, AHA's management, with the assistance of the Technion Society United States (ATS), requested the head of the Department of Education Science and Technology, Professor Orit Hazan, to develop for them study materials in the English language. Mr. Sam Ribnick, a student visitor, a graduate of MIT, is responsible for the development of the material and Prof. Miri Barak serves as the academic advisor. Thus, in recent months, there has been brewing and development based on the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), as the basis for outside-the-classroom activities - teaching method called Flipped Classroom. For homework, students are asked to watch the lectures recorded, while classroom time devoted to solving exercises, work on projects, and / or discussions.Study units developed at the Technion include short videos of lectures, animations, simulations and colorful illustrations illustration of scientific principles and concepts. They also include closed questions and feedback to the learner's self-examination and open-ended questions that encourage reflection and classroom discussions. Learning tasks encourage understanding of different forms of representation of scientific concepts such as equations, graphs and tables. Tasks incorporate critical thinking and argument, and planning and implementing research-based laboratory activities.Recently, a delegation of AHA's management and a group of 19 eighth graders from the school visited the Department of Education Science and Technology and participated in various educational activities developed especially for them on energy. All students mentioned positively the innovative teaching method, the way information is organized in lectures recorded and graphics. Over 70% of students indicated that they consider it important to understand various concepts in science. The current project is unique, they noted that the Technion positively not only assists American Jews, but also contributes his knowledge and experience with regard to children in community science education - technology.

SPECTATORS at Glasgow Green reacted angrily after being told to remove Yes Scotland badges by officials.
Sports fans were told to remove the button badges at the gates by security guards because "they represent a protest".
Some people at the Green are believed to have been told they could wear the badges if they were kept out of view.
Glasgow 2014 Venue Regulation 6.18 states that no flags are allowed to enter a venue - or the vicinity of any Games venue - if they are normally associated with causes, affiliations or organisations.
Neill Patton, from Glasgow, said: "My Yes badge is not offensive, it is not a protest - it simply represents my personal view."
A spokesman for Yes Scotland said: "Organisers of the Commonwealth Games quite rightly want to keep politics out of the Games."

Our homes today are filled with electronics and appliances that make our lives easier and provide us with entertainment. DVD players, big screen TVs, video game systems, and cable/satellite TV boxes overload our electrical outlets and fill up our entertainment centers.
If you bought a new appliance lately, you'll see that technology has changed them, as well. Our new washer and dryer consists of a few buttons and touch screens. While the touch screens look cool, there's more circuitry in them, which could lead to a fire.
According to the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA), 501,500 structure fires were reported in the U.S. in 2015. These fires resulted in 2,685 deaths, 13,000 injuries, and $10.3 billion in property damage; $7 billion in property losses were caused by home fires. Based on these statistics, a fire was reported every 63 seconds.
Since I'm an insurance person, it worries me when our family runs our appliances when we are not home, or if we leave appliances plugged in. Here's a list of common appliances and how they can be start fires in your home.
Common Appliances
Dishwashers. Have you ever opened your dishwasher immediately after it finished its cycle? The heat that shoots out when you open the door can be overwhelming. A dishwasher contains heating elements that dry your dishes. These heating elements get wet, heat up, and cool down every time you use the dishwasher. Old or faulty elements can start a fire. Never turn on a dishwasher before leaving your home. While it's nice to return to clean dishes at the end of the day, it's not worth the risk.
Dryers. Scott Stueber from West Bend has written a couple safety articles about lint buildup in a dryer and the importance of cleaning it often. To see how fast a lint fire can start; check this link. Preventing dryer fires: Experts say keeping your lint trap clean is just part of the safety cycle.
Microwaves. Microwaves are very convenient. Warming up leftover meals can be a big timesaver when the family schedule is hectic. They also can be very dangerous. There have been many complaints about microwaves starting on their own and causing a fire. If you hear your microwave running, and you didn't turn it on, unplug it immediately. Microwaves: a fire hazard in your kitchen
Refrigerators. One might never think of a refrigerator being a fire risk; however, an overheated compressor or an electrical short can cause fires. In addition, a light that stays on all the time can be hazardous.
Toasters. In 1913, Westinghouse debuted the first two-sided toaster. Toasters have electric elements inside that are used to brown your bread or bagel. If the toaster fails and doesn't turn off, a fire can start. Never leave a toaster unsupervised and remove the crumbs on the bottom of the toaster regularly. In addition, inspect the electric elements for stuck crumbs.
Other common causes of house fires
Candles. While candles look nice and add ambiance to your living room, never leave them unattended. From 2007 – 2011, the NFPA reported 10,630 candle fires resulting in 115 fatalities and $418 million in property damage.
Electrical. Electrical fires can start in many ways. Some causes are old wiring, an overloaded electrical outlet or circuit breaker, and extension cords. The next time you plug in that extension cord or new electronic device, pay attention to your outlet. It may be wise to unplug something else or find a different outlet.
Children playing with fire. Now, this is something that I personally would have never done. Fire is not something that I get close to, but many children do! According to the NFPA, an estimated 7,100 home fires occur each year because of children playing with fire.
Cooking. Have you ever left the kitchen for just a "quick second" and returned to a boiling pot overflowing? The number-one cause of house fires is cooking.
General Fire Safety Tips
· Consider replacing appliances before something goes wrong. A more expensive appliance doesn't equate to a longer life span.
· Develop and practice an escape plan with your family.
· Don't use water to put out a grease fire.
· Store matches and lighters out of a child's reach.
· Avoid using water to extinguish a candle.
· Don't use candles during a power outage. Rely on flashlights instead.
· Clean your dryer lint screen regularly.
· Unplug toasters after each use.
· Inspect your dryer ducts each year.
· Don't store a toaster on your counter if you have pets.
· Contact an electrician if you're concerned about a wiring issue in your house.
· Select the right extension cord for the job.
· Avoid overloading electrical outlets.
· Avoid storing things in your microwave.
· Never run an appliance, such as the dishwasher, washing machine, or dryer when you're not home.
· Test your smoke detectors regularly. Consider replacing batteries when Daylight Savings Time begins and ends.
If you have a fire in your home, the most important thing you can do is get out immediately. A home can be completely engulfed in flames within a couple of minutes. The safety of you and your family is more important than your possessions.
