Lewandowski: Heads Will Roll After Trump Jr. Leaks (VIDEO)
Corey Lewandowski, President Trump's former campaign manager, commented Wednesday that the leaker behind the coverage of Donald Trump Jr.'s Russian lawyer meetings will be fired.
As previously reported, on Saturday The New York Times published another hit piece on the Trump Campaign and a meeting with Russia.
On "Fox & Friends", Lewandowski stated:
"Anybody, and I mean anybody who is not on the president's agenda that works in this administration should absolutely be removed immediately . . ."
Beyond this, Lewandowski states early on that he was the campaign manager at the time and comments that, "if this was a meeting that had any information that would have been relevant to the campaign, or could have potentially impacted the outcome of the election, I would have been made aware of it, President Trump would have been made aware of it. Neither one of us know anything about the meeting, because it was a nothing meeting."
Lewandowski added:
"I don't know who the leaker is but let me tell you this, if it were up to me, and somebody was speaking to the media [and leaking information detrimental to Trump], I would fire them on the spot, and Donald Trump will do the same."
The group that organized the meeting with Trump advisers and the Russian lawyers was the same Democratic group Fusion GPS that was behind the discredited Trump dossier, according to a report from Circa News.

Climate Change - from Strategy to Activity
Investing responsibly has different aspects. Avoiding investments with excessive ESG risks is just one side of the story. Swiss Re goes beyond that. With our approach, we are supporting the transition to a low carbon economy.
As climate change is a main topic, we actively contribute to a less carbon intensive economy. We do this through several activities:
• Investing into the green bond market, primarily relying on the "Green Bond Principles"
• Having infrastructure as a target asset class and focus on renewables
• Avoiding investments in companies where we see high risk of stranded assets
We invest in green bonds in credit markets as well as in the supranational, sovereign and agency (SSA) market. Debt raised through green bonds is used to finance environmental responsible projects that provide clear benefits from that perspective. We are well advanced in meeting our investment target for green bonds of at least USD 1.5bn.
Infrastructure debt is an attractive asset class for a long-term investor like Swiss Re. Improving energy efficiency and developing low-carbon technologies, including renewable energy sources, are critical to reducing carbon emissions and securing future energy supplies. Renewables and social infrastructure investments are therefore the largest sub-sector in our infrastructure mandate.
Furthermore, we avoid investments in companies where substantial part of their revenues stem from thermal coal or tar sands operations to actively mitigate the risk of stranded assets over the long term. In case divested companies are able to adapt to a sustainable future, we may reinvest to support them in being part of tomorrow's solution.
We analyse and monitor the actual integration of ESG factors, including climate change, in our portfolio. Moreover, we are committed to regularly reporting on current activities and progress made.

In August of last year I shared my Frizzy Damaged Hair Products blog post. I talked about how I had hair that appeared damaged and frizzy, with a frizz halo all the time. My hair has always been straight, yet when looking up content about frizzy hair, I kept finding information about curly hair or wavy hair.
Then I found out that to maintain their naturally curly hair, many people have to treat it in a certain way. For example, some people with naturally curly hair will just have frizzy, poofy hair if they use a brush after washing their hair because it breaks the curl patterns.
I started reading about the curly girl method and found out that many people with straight frizzy hair actually have curly hair if they treat it right! I was intrigued – but I didn't want to purchase curly girl approved products yet because it sounded expensive. Someone told me to just use my normal hair products, but to squish to condish while in the shower, then to plop my hair, and then to NOT touch my hair until it is 100% dry, and to not use a comb or brush on it at all.
If you look up squish to condish and/or plopping, most tutorials will talk about certain hair products, or doing things like leaving conditioner in your hair. If you are just trying this the first time, you do not have to do that. Just wash with shampoo, rinse, then use conditioner, rinse, and then "squish" your hair up to your scalp to see if waves form.
I did this, and I saw more waves and more defined waves in my hair than before, but the difference was fairly subtle. From there, I added a gel and I saw a lot more shine, less frizz and better-defined waves. If you do this and see more waves and/or curls in your hair – then you likely have hair that wants to be curlier than it is able to be based on your current method. If you have truly straight hair, it will remain straight despite these methods, according to what I have read.
In the photo below, the top left is my hair after just doing 'squish to condish' and plopping. I was did not use any hair styling products, and I fully rinsed out my shampoo and conditioner (which had silicones and sulfates so they were not curly-girl approved products). The top right is my hair with my old shampoo and conditioner (again, not curly-girl approved) but I added in a hard-cast gel while plopping and then 'scrunched out the crunch' when dry).
The bottom left photo was my hair on an average day when I was still washing my hair as usual and brushing. The picture on the bottom right is my hair after a deep conditioning treatment back before squish to condish or plopping.
Once I saw some improvement with just squishing and plopping, I decided to try curly girl method in its entirety. I've seen a bit more improvement but I have a lot of learning and experimenting to do before I can share more. I am still just in shock that my straight hair is naturally wavy and I never knew.
If you decide to give the curly girl method a try, I have a post about an affordable start to the curly girl method so you can get going without spending too much money.
Testing this out! I would love more volume:)
i love this method. its really nice and pretty decsriptive. thank you!
Wow! This makes so much sense. I've had horribly frizzy hair my whole life and when I was pregnant my hair got super wavy 2b. Outside of pregnancy its 2a. And after I've been to the salon and had app the good hydrating products and then the next day I take a shower BOOM my hair is wavy from root to tip. I can't wait to explore this new knowledge and hydrate and gel cast my hair
What brand of gel did you use?
Thank you so much for this post 😍 I had baby curls and then frizzy slightly wavy hair but I always considered it was straight. I discovered the curly girl method for my hair and thought about how my hair has been over the years and decided to give it a go, it was great at first but my hair is currently looking awful 🙁 just a big tangled frizz ball. I have been trying to find out if it was worth me continuing but now I will continue!
Interesting concept, although I wouldn't consider your hair straight. It definitely has some wave to it even before trying this curvy girl method. I doubt this would help someone whose hair actually dries straight without products.
Pingback: CGM + Ya Girl - Coffee.Greens.Wine. And Everything Between.
Huh. Funny coincidence, I was just noticing how evenly textured waves were showing up in my hair after a shower and I was very intrigued. Now I'm quite sure that is just how it wants to look naturally. Can't believe it took me almost 35 years to figure this out, especially considering I spent many an hour in the seat of "professionals" over the years.
I didn't even stumble upon this page because of the curiosity stemming from that; I was just looking up a bit of info about straight hair.

They were each charged with two counts of aggravated assault. Now they all face a murder charge.
One of the juveniles, Cameron Brooks, is now seventeen. He's in the Baldwin County Jail.
The other juvenile is being held at the regional youth detention center in Sandersville.

New Year, New You – How to Build a Personal Brand
Looking to improve your professional life in 2018? Why not resolve to build your online personal brand! Not only is a strong personal brand the best way to diversify yourself from a stack of resumes, it's a powerful way to highlight your expertise and tell your story. Here are some tips to get you started.
1. Know yourself
Your personal brand works most effectively when it tells a cohesive story — the story of you. To help you get there, take some time to formalize your values and goals. Thinking about the interests, values and capabilities you want to highlight ahead of time will help to guide you when interacting with your network. You might even want to create a document that outlines these values to quickly reference when sharing content.
2. Build an online presence
Building a website may seem like a daunting task. However, with many free domains and web hosting sites, you can easily create your personal site with only a few clicks! To get started, include your resume, a brief bio and links to your social media profiles. Then, as your personal brand grows, you can expand your website to include blogs, industry best practices, examples of your work, etc.
3. Select the platforms that work best to promote your brand.
Identify your target audience to determine the platforms you should use to appeal to them. For example, if you are in a visual creative field, appeal to your target audience through a visual network like Instagram. Or, if you're in a professional field, try using LinkedIn. Selecting the appropriate platform will ensure you are getting the best exposure for your brand.
4. Build and manage your marketing network
Friends, colleagues, clients and customers are powerful resources when it comes to marketing your personal brand. Their feedback and comments can affect the way future connections view your brand. Make sure to be attentive and responsive to your existing connections while growing and developing your professional network with people in your field and related fields.
5. Listen and share news in your industry
Make sure to stay on top of relevant news and exciting events in your industry. Not only will this ensure that you know your industry inside and out, it will also increase your credibility as a reliable source of information in your field. As a bonus, sharing articles, press releases and other credible sources is another great way to expand your professional network.
6. Be consistent
Consistency is imperative in successful branding. This includes when, where and how you market yourself. Create a schedule for posting new content. Make sure all content reflects your formalized beliefs and values, and, that you are consistently using the same social media platforms for sharing.
7. Audit yourself
Remember, it's easier to be proactive than reactive! Stay on top of your public image by googling yourself on a regular basis. Make sure the search results represent your beliefs and values. Remove any images or content that are not consistent with your branding efforts.
With so much of our life spent in the digital universe, the importance of personal branding is essential in crafting your online presence. By taking these easy steps to define and adhere to your personal brand, you will be empowered to broadcast exactly what you want to your network, future employers and the world. A strong personal brand will set you apart from the competition and enhance your professional value.

The unlimited-ride MetroCard turned 10 this month, a milestone for a thin piece of plastic that has helped usher in a boom in mass transit ridership.
When it was first introduced in the early 1990s, the MetroCard was little more than a substitute token made of plastic. It was not until free MetroCard transfers between subways and buses were instituted in 1997 and the unlimited-ride cards were introduced on July 4, 1998, that the passes fully realized their power to transform the transit system.
Today, many downtown office workers think nothing of hopping on the subway at Wall Street and zipping up to Union Square for lunch. Workers in Midtown might ride a couple of stops to Macy's to get some shopping done during a break. And the number of people using mass transit on weekends has soared as well, as New Yorkers have embraced the subway and bus as a way to get around during their free time, not just for commuting.
"I think it's absolutely changed travel habits in the New York region, and it's been a boon for the economy as well," said Andrew Albert, who represents transit riders on the board of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
"Where once you might have used it more sparingly because you had a finite number of trips, you're more likely to take a trip during your lunch break, go shopping perhaps or go to dinner somewhere," he said.
It did not take long for the unlimited-ride cards to catch on.
In the first month they were available, the unlimited cards accounted for 18 percent of all subway and bus trips, said Lawrence R. Hirsch, who heads the office that forecasts and tracks ridership and fare revenues for New York City Transit. By the end of 1998 the unlimited cards were being used for about a quarter of all trips. By 2003 they accounted for about half. They remain at that level today. Most of those who use unlimited cards buy 7-day or 30-day passes; a smaller number buy 1-day or 14-day passes.
At the same time, ridership has swelled. Last year, the average weekday subway and bus ridership was 7.4 million, up from 5.3 million in 1996, an increase of 40 percent. Average weekend ridership, which includes both Saturday and Sunday, rose to 7.7 million last year, from 4.6 million in 1996, an increase of almost 70 percent.
Other factors have fed the increase, including the growth in the city's economy, the drop in crime and an overall improvement of transit service thanks to billions of dollars of investment in new trains and buses, track and signal equipment and renovated stations. But the unlimited-ride MetroCard has been a major factor in changing how riders use the system.
"We have the highest ridership since April 1950 and there's a reason for it, and the reason is unlimited-ride passes," said Gene Russianoff, the staff lawyer for the Straphangers Campaign, a transit rider advocacy group that helped push for the unlimited cards.
At the Union Square subway station, Noeva Wong, 54, a lifelong New Yorker who lives in Manhattan, said she regularly buys a 30-day MetroCard. "I go many more places because the cost of getting around the city is prohibitive if you don't have an unlimited card," she said.
Patrick Dougher, 44, who lives in Brooklyn and teaches art at a Manhattan high school, said he uses his weekly card for much more than commuting and does not think twice about jumping on a bus or train. "I do find I use taxis much, much less," he said.
While the unlimited-ride cards are used for roughly half of all rides on buses and subway trains, because the people who use them tend to take more rides than other straphangers, it turns out that considerably fewer than half of all riders have an unlimited-ride card.
In a survey by the transportation authority last year, about 700 riders were asked how they paid for their most recent transit trip. About 23 percent said they had used an unlimited-ride MetroCard. In contrast, 56 percent said they used a pay-per-ride MetroCard, either with or without the volume bonus. Six percent said they had used a single-ride ticket, and 15 percent said they had paid with coins on the bus.
Mr. Hirsch said recent figures showed that people who use the 30-day pass take an average of about 70 rides a month on subways and buses. But many of those rides occur during what transit officials refer to as linked trips, such as when a subway rider transfers to a bus to complete a journey.
A truer picture, Mr. Hirsch said, is given by a further analysis that shows that, on average, holders of the 30-day pass make 56 linked trips a month. With the cost of a 30-day pass at $81, that results in an average fare of $1.45.
Holders of 7-day cards, which cost $25, make 16 linked trips a week, for an average fare of $1.56.
In contrast, a person who buys a bonus pay-per-ride MetroCard has an average fare of $1.74.
The base fare of $2 is paid by people who buy single-ride tickets, who put less than $7 on a pay-per-ride MetroCards or who pay cash on the bus.

2018 BMW X5 vs Acura MDX
Drivers across Manhattan, including the Bronx and Queens areas, look for something very specific when they choose a luxury crossover sport utility vehicle. While there are plenty of entries in the field, the BMW X5 and the Acura MDX are both outstanding representatives of what you can expect from the finest in the sector.
Of course, no two vehicles are exactly the same, and when you put the two up against one another, one has to come out on top. Explore the results when we directly compare the 2018 BMW X5 and the new model of Acura MDX, so you can choose the best crossover SUV today. If you'd like to learn more, reach out to our team.
BMW X5 vs Acura MDX
This year, the 2018 BMW X5 carries over pretty much unchanged from the 2017 model year, which is good news to those in love with last year's model; after all, it set the standard for style, performance, and comfort, and it continues to do so this year. The Acura, on the other hand, does some work to catch up in areas of luxury and offerings, including an upgraded infotainment system with capacitive touchscreen and standard Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay™ smartphone app integration.
Standard Features
Aside from the upgraded infotainment system, the Acura has less to offer than the BMW does. BMW has, for a long time, been one of the leaders in establishing the definition of a luxury vehicle. It comes standard with a number of standard features that the Acura simply cannot offer, including fog lights, HID headlights, automatic windshield wipers, parking assist, power folding side mirrors, electrochromatic rearview mirror, GPS navigation, and onboard hands-free communication. You also get the iDrive infotainment system with 10.2-inch display.
While some of these features are available on the MDX, none are standard. The basic standard tech on the new Acura includes only a 7-inch infotainment system with 7-inch display and standard auto dim rearview mirror.
Both vehicles offer power heated seats and an integrated safety suite offering emergency telematics and the like.
Performance Comparison
Of course, a point of importance for any SUV is performance, and while the X5 and MDX have similar engines, the BMW outperforms the Acura. Its 3.0L turbo inline 6 delivers 300 horsepower backed up by 300 lb-ft of torque, while the MDX is driven by a 3.5L V6 putting out only 290 horses with a mere 267 lb-ft in torque.
The new X5 also features a double-wishbone suspension in front with multi-link rear suspension, as compared to the MDX's front strut suspension. This translates directly to a smoother, more comfortable ride from the BMW entry than you'll get from the Acura.
Test Drive the BMW X5 at BMW of Manhattan
If you're in the Manhattan area, from the Bronx to Queens, you'll love the performance and experience you get from driving the 2018 BMW X5. It outperforms the Acura in terms of base features and performance, making it the superior crossover luxury SUV. Stop into BMW of Manhattan today to find out how you can get into the cabin to take a test drive.

text: Education has suffered in many areas of the country from reduced funding and diversion of public tax revenues to charter schools, which not only drain money but cause valuable family involvement to be diverted from participation in local public education. In addition, the inability to advance curriculum appropriate to society's current needs means that students frequently do not get the course work needed to become productive workers and engaged citizens. We need to add grades 13 & 14, or community college and/or job training for all of our children. The country must make sure that everybody can read and function in society. This requires adequate funding for all Title 1 special needs individuals and means that reading recovery should be part of criminal rehabilitation. Outliers should be included in our planning for educational services. And money for school facilities, staffing of teaching and research corps, and subsidies for advanced studies (including four-year university education) have to become as routine considerations in the development of the national budget as they were in the post WWII years when the space program and computer technologies led the country to new levels of success in many other areas through spin-off industrial development. Those investments in the space race and National Defense Student Loans showed a much better return than the money that was poured into Afghanistan & Iraq.

A steam shower is a bathing enclosure where a steam generator produces steam for users to have a warm bath. Steam showers are available in ancient and modern types. As matter of trends, consumers prefer the modern ones.
However, modern steam showers developed from ancient Roman steambath. This type offers multi-purpose use as both as normal bathroom shower or steam shower. Also, they are portable and convenient and do not need a lot of space unlike ancient steam baths which take up a whole large room.
In addition, modern steam showers include features that improve the bathing experience. They come in different shapes, sizes and orientation. It is just like having the spa or sauna experience in your home.
Steam showers are constructed with or made from different type of materials such as fiberglass, tile, acrylic, glass, stone, or wood.
Features of the steam shower
While it is important to note that a regular bathroom could also be converted into a steam bath by integrating a steam generator into its build, however steam showers exist independently and have some features that make it even great. They include:
- Digital control features with remote control or buttons
- Thermostat for temperature regulation
- Seat (multiple or single)
- Music, radio, speaker and phone connections
- Foot massage
- Body/massage jets
- Aromatherapy (use of essential oil)
- Lighting features like Chroma therapy.
- Hand held shower
- Overhead shower
- Rainfall ceiling shower
- Soap dispenser (for bathing, shampooing, conditioning)
- Self-cleaning functions. (Activated when steambath is not in use in order to sterilize the enclosure and hinder harmful bacteria growth).
Health benefit of a steam bath
- Steam bath serves as a means of resting the mind and the body. It soothes the nerves and relaxes the muscles.
- Steam bath can also release the tensions in your joints and ligament. It is especially pain relieving and soothing for arthritis, migraines and headache sufferers.
- Steam bath also helps to open the mucous membrane and improves symptoms of respiratory disease like catarrh, flu, sinusitis, cold etc. It enhances breathing and congestion problems.
- Steam baths causes a person to sweat and as they do so, toxins and other waste products in the body get dispelled.
- It helps in detoxification of the skin by opening its spores. It enhances cell growth, making for a glowing, fresh and healthy looking skin.
- Some steam bath offers aromatherapy function as well as foot and body massage, all to improve your health.
To move further, with all that has been said about steam baths, we would further introduce you to a review of five selected steam baths so you would be informed when you decide to get one for yourself or household.

Jon and Kate Plus 8: It's Not Easy to Share
There is a saying in the PR business; "the story's got legs." It means what it sounds like it means; the story can not be stopped and keeps multiplying its exposure in the media. So the last thing you want to do if it's an unwanted story is to feed the fire and personally, I am very sad about what is happening to the Gosselin family and refused to be one of the people talking about them. But, I just can't hold it in anymore. RAHHHHHH.
Okay, breathe.... here we go: A few days ago, the first episode of the new season of Jon and Kate plus 8 aired and we watched it. It was just so awful to look at the pain in their faces that I decided not to watch this show anymore, at least for a while.
This show is one of the few shows my husband and I watched together. Why? This family members' personalities are interesting and more importantly, while their children don't seem to have any particular special need, they obviously do have special needs being a large family of multiples. Special needs, whatever they are, my family can relate!
This show is just so sad to me now and I just can't be around sadness without purpose, ya know? It's not because I am the kind of person that is only here for you during the good times but it's because I am a viewer and not a friend. Friends don't watch friends suffer and not do anything and so since I can't do anything, I can't bear to watch anymore. I have however, decided to leave a comment on Kate's blog as I think I've heard her say that she reads all her emails. I don't have as many as she does but all of the comments left on this blog are important to me so I left her one. I hope it gets approved by the screeners.
Anyway, I want to just say, I have tried extremely hard not to pay any attention to the gossip or so-called-news regarding the show. It's just plain yucky at this point.
What is also yucky is that the show is still on the air. Perhaps it's a contract thing or financial thing or a poor judgment thing or a whatever-this-can-be-good thing. I am gathering that the parents are doing what they think is best- I can't question them because I am not in their shoes. But one still has to at least ask: is it okay to be on a reality show when you have children involved in a painful process? I suppose everyone will differ with this answer.
I question myself in this issue too since you wouldn't be reading this blog if my children didn't have challenges with initials (ADHD, SPD, PDD-NOS, ??D). I don't have many answers with regards to how much reality is okay when your own family is the subject except to say that I would hope that Logan and Spencer will understand why I needed to share my thoughts at this stage in our lives. I hope they will think that it was a good choice and will be content that it might have comforted another family going through the same issue.
Sharing your life publicly has been great for me but even this blogger doesn't feel like everything needs to be told. Jon and Kate plus 8 have given my family a lot and most recently, they have taught me how I need to be aware of boundaries as I write this blog. Believe me when I say that there were a couple of times where I had to go back to a post and delete a sentence here and there. Like young children, I can also say, "it's not easy to share." Thanks Jon and Kate, I learned a lot from you.
I pray that this special family will find the courage, hope, and strength to move forward to the next level that is right for them.
Picture: Here is something I hope Logan will be okay with: Logan hung from this "thing" (don't know what to call it) for several seconds which is a big accomplishment for him since he has low tone in his upper trunk. I'm proud of you little man!

3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.1 Update offers faster decoding with reduced memory usage and increased compatibility.
Sydney, Australia, August 7, 2007 - 3ivx Technologies Pty. Ltd., the MPEG-4 Video & Audio specialist, announces the immediate availability of version 5.0.1 of the 3ivx MPEG-4 compression suite for Windows, Mac OS X & Linux. This release comes fast on the heels of the long awaited 3ivx MPEG-4 5.0 major upgrade and offers faster decoding with reduced memory usage and increased compatibility.
3ivx's compression technology enables the transmission and storage of video which would otherwise be too large to store or transmit. 3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.1 consists of separate MPEG-4 Audio, MPEG-4 Video and MP4 File Format components for crossplatform authoring and playback of MPEG-4 media.
Technical Details
3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.1 is an MPEG-4 Part 2 Advanced Simple Profile implementation for Mac OS X, Windows Vista and Linux.
New in 3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.1 is an internal re-architecting that effectively eliminates deadlocks and race conditions that can occur under certain circumstances while dramatically reducing memory requirements.
The decoder's performance has been enhanced and memory usage while decoding has been reduced by up to 76%. Intel and PowerPC Assembly routines have been implemented for YUV image output and psychovisual post-processing, which dramatically boosts performance and subjective video quality. Due to improved frame allocation strategies pathological B-frame sequences can now be decoded without stalling.
The encoder now supports MPEG-4v1 and MPEG-4v2 syntax, which further broaden 3ivx's already impressive MPEG-4 device interoperability. CPU Complexity Controls allow significantly faster than real time encoding and VBR, CBR and ABR modes assist with performance critical workflows. Video Archiving and Offline Production benefit from Dual Pass modes which perform optimal bitrate allocation.
3ivx MPEG-4 encodes faster and with better quality in a smaller file size than QuickTime's built-in MPEG-4 encoder and still retains the ability to target all QuickTime 6 and 7 users without the need to download a decoder plug-in.
MP4 Export functionality has been added to the 3ivx Media Exporter for QuickTime, allowing users to easily export high quality 3ivx MP4 files from iMovie, Final Cut Pro and other QuickTime Applications. The resulting MP4's are directly compatible with most MP4 Players, including Apple's iPhone and AppleTV.
QuickTime compatible Aspect Ratio Signaling has been implemented within all components of the 3ivx MPEG-4 DirectShow Filter Suite, allowing Windows application developers to produce and handle Anamorphic content which is compatible with all Windows DirectShow players as well as Apple's QuickTime and AppleTV.
3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.1 builds on the solid base provided by 3ivx MPEG-4 5.0, which includes support for B-Frame Encoding, Interlaced Decoding, Global Motion Compensation and Quarter Pixel Interpolation.
With this release 3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.1 Personal Editions are now available with optional Multi-channel LC-AAC and HE-AAC audio support.
3ivx MPEG-4 5.0.1 is compatible with iTunes, iPod, Windows Media Centre and most DirectShow, Video For Windows or QuickTime applications.
About 3ivx
3ivx Technologies Pty. Ltd., a leading provider of MPEG-4 software, is a dynamic Australian company that has a creative team of software and hardware developers. Headquartered in Sydney, Australia, 3ivx Technologies distributes its products primarily in North America, Asia and Europe.

You'll find the best deals with cheap Gatwick parking at Parking4less. We have a choice of long stay parking, short stay parking and valet parking, at both Gatwick's North and South terminals. We pride ourself on keeping our customers happy and we're pleased to say that we score an average of 7.5/10 from more than 2,000 customer reviews of our Gatwick parking service.
Long stay parking will save you money if you're travelling for more than a couple of days. You can choose from one of four options:
There are two long stay car parks if you're flying from the north terminal: long stay north terminal and summer special parking Gatwick.
This is a self-park, where you take your keys with you once you've parked up. A transfer bus runs 24-hours a day and takes just five minutes to get to the South Terminal.
Operating all year round (despite its name) the summer special car park offers Gatwick parking at its best. You simply park at the reception check-in and hop on one of the regular shuttle buses to the airport. While you're gone a member of staff will park your car for you. The shuttle bus runs 24-hour a day, leaves every 10 to 20 minutes and takes a mere five minutes to get to the North Terminal.
Two long stay car parks that service Gatwick's South Terminal.
You park and take your keys with you in this self-park car park. The bus to then takes you to the South Terminal in a journey taking only 5 mins.
Just leave your car and keys in the reception area and your car will be parked for you. Then hop on the bus for the four-minute bus ride to the South Terminal. The long stay plus car park is open between April and October for stays of five days or more.
Whichever terminal you're flying from, the Gatwick short stay car park is conveniently situated between the two. There's no transfer bus to catch, you just walk across the link to your terminal. This car park has won the prestigious Park Mark Award.
The most expensive but quickest option for car parking at Gatwick Airport. Why not treat yourself to this premium Gatwick parking service and get your trip off to a good start. It takes less time to transfer from your car to the airport terminal than any other parking service. Gatwick valet parking is ideal for people in a rush or who simply don't want the hassle of finding a space in a car park and waiting for a bus transfer to the airport terminal.
For the south terminal the official airport valet (meet & greet) reception area is on level 2 of the red short stay car park. Its important to prebook to get the best prices and availability. We'll send you a booking confirmation, directions and map. You park in the short stay area and hand your keys in to reception. Same procedure as the south terminal except that you the reception area is on level 3 of the short stay car park at the north terminal. In both cases, a driver will then take your car to a secure car park and bring it back on your return. The secure car park has security fencing, cctv cameras, floodlighting and regular patrols by staff.
We offer some other valet parking companies that are airport approved. This means they have met the following requirements…
The following companies we feature have achieved the approved status…
Most of these companies operate in the traditional meet and greet valet style parking, which is to wait for customers at the drop off point outside the terminal. Your car is quickly checked over for dents and scratches, then the driver takes your car to a secure off-airport car park.
Whether you have an early or late flight to catch, it can make sense to stay overnight at a hotel near Gatwick. We have got together with hotels and car parks to come up with a tailored cheap Gatwick parking package that gives you a great deal, and the convenience of arranging everything in one go. Have a look a what we offer with our Gatwick Airport hotels.

Defective Products Cause Car Accidents
Automobile manufacturers must ensure that the products they sell to the general public function in the ways that they are advertised and are not dangerous to those who drive them. When a car crash is caused by defective products, the outcome is typically devastating and deadly.
Any victim of a devastating car accident caused by a faulty automobile should enlist the aid of a detective product lawyer specializing in car crashes caused by mechanical defects to help he or she file a lawsuit to seek justice and fair compensation for his or her suffering.
Faulty brakes, accelerators, cruise control and tires are common causes of car accidents; other defective parts designed and implemented to keep passengers safe can injure or kill under the wrong circumstances.
Car defect claims can be based on numerous parts of the motor vehicle in question, including the transmission, the steering and suspension systems, the exhaust, fuel and lubrication systems, the brakes, the body and the frame and the accessory features.
The Importance of Strict Liability for Car Defects
Vehicle manufacturer's and distributor's responsibility for faulty products is controlled by the doctrine of strict liability, which means that if a defective product attorney can prove that:
- the vehicle in question or one of its parts had an unreasonably hazardous defect that caused injury
- the injury in question was caused while the car was being used in an appropriate way
- the vehicle in question had not been seriously altered from the original sales condition at the time of the injury
Then – regardless of any steps taken in the design, manufacture or handling of the motor vehicle – the designer, manufacturer or retailer is solely responsible for the harm caused.
Common Defects that Lead to Car Crashes
Although it is possible for almost any defect to lead to a car collision, certain defects are more likely to cause an automotive crash.
Unintended Acceleration
Unintended and sudden acceleration caused by a shifting problem or a sticky gas pedal is a highly dangerous situation for a driver, and one that is widely known because of the recent recall of many Toyota vehicles.
In the case of sudden acceleration, defective product attorneys should have no difficulty demonstrating strict liability and securing just compensation for the victim of a car crash caused by this problem.
Brake Failure
Brake failure is exceptionally dangerous that can not only cause harm to those inside the faulty vehicle, but can lead to the death of pedestrians and other drivers close to the car without brakes. Brake failure can be difficult to pinpoint as a by defective product issue, but if the manufacturer was indeed responsible they will be held under strict liability.
Car "Crashworthiness"
All cars are expected to uphold a standard of safety in the event of a crash. This is known as "crashworthiness" and defined as the ability of a motor vehicle to prevent the occupants from injury and harm during and after a collision.
Drivers and passengers are at risk of experiencing a "second collision" against the objects inside a vehicle and the vehicle's interior walls after a collision with a car or stationary object; many aspects of a car's design are implemented to prevent these secondary collisions.
The purpose of seat belts, headrests, air bags, roll bars, side-impact protections and crumple zones are to minimize the injuries of the passengers, reduce the risk of a fire after a collision and prevent the car occupants from being ejected out of the vehicle into further harm.
Unfortunately, the safety features themselves – when defective – can be extremely dangerous and even cause fatalities with or without a crash.
Head restraints are either adjustable or integral parts of the seat backs. Adjustable head restraints are separate pads attached to the seat back on sliding metal shafts, which can be adjusted to suit the head height and position of the passenger occupying the seat.
Integral head restraints are simply an extension of the seat back that is high enough to provide support for the back of the head.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NTSA) sets the standards for head restraint safety and requires that integral and adjustable head pads are a minimum of 27 1/2 inches above the seating reference point when the seat is in the fully extended position and that they do not allow the torso and the head to go beyond a 45-degree angle during forward movement at a certain speed.
According to many of the professional defective product lawyers, if there is a problem with the head restraints in a car, it is unlikely to cause an accident but is more apt to lead to serious neck injuries in the event of a collision.
Air bags are considered passive restraint systems, which do not require any human assistance to effectively function and protect vehicle passengers. Front air bags are designed to deploy in the event of a head-on collision while side air bags are designed to deploy in a side collision.
Defective air bags are quite dangerous and can cause accidents if they deploy unexpectedly and for no reason while driving. Defective air bags are also capable of causing severe injuries – even deaths – and are especially hazardous to small children and infants.
Car seats are expected by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to be able to withstand 3,300 pounds of impact force in a collision. Car seats are complicated, with multiple aspects such as seat adjusters, seat tracks, seat anchors and seat backs, all of which have the potential to fail during a collision. Although dangerous after a collision, car seats themselves are not typically sources of a car crash.

seven Ways Firms Require Shoppers To Build Mutually Effective Interactions
It doesn't make a difference that you are working a commence-up or a building business enterprise, you have already predicted a working day when you stop up parting approaches. It could possibly be for a number of reasons these types of as you want to get on a different obstacle or want to devote your earnings in a different venture, or just need to have to loosen up and get pleasure from your retirement days – a ton of business enterprise house owners do have an exit approach as well. Probably, it will be just all over the corner or a prolonged way off. So, it's fantastic to get some time out to assume and commence planning by yourself to get a prolonged expression gain. Of program, all people wishes to get rewarded at the stop.
If you have minimal sources and a lot less amount of money of financial commitment, then the greatest way is to enable shoppers and technology make some hard work on your behalf. When it arrives to the Details professionals, a ton them are already working with IT broadly. But, there are a number of progress that you really should be perfectly knowledgeable of, and give prospects for relieving off work:
- Enhancing shopper support by giving revenue & internet marketing administration deals
- The use of multimedia and its publishing demand from customers rather than getting printed periodicals
- Details recovery bundles for PCs, for occasion, Concept Record that shoppers can hire on their own
- The Internet together with its look for & recovery tools
- E-mail for enormous distribution and information centre bulletins
- Get customers' responses by way of Personal computer conferencing, producing strategies of motion and returning data into the brains
CRM initiatives do well and fail for a wide range of reasons. Some of the reasons are tied to the administration design and style of individuals in charge, even though other people are far more foundational in nature.
The subsequent are a several specific approaches companies contain shoppers in their internet marketing initiatives and create mutually valuable relationships:
Develop A Capable Group
Right before you can do anything else, you should make a staff that is capable of attracting shoppers with internet marketing initiatives. You need to have internet marketing professionals that are each certified and personable. They really should care about your business and the shoppers to whom you promote. A capable staff will consist of various individuals with fresh new suggestions, but a one, unified mission.
Established Plans
Concrete and tangible goals are vital developing blocks of a shopper-oriented internet marketing initiative. After establishing your staff, sit down and hash out the goals, deadlines, and duties.
Referral Courses
Although referral packages had been after a area of interest-internet marketing design, they are now commonplace. They give companies the chance to current market properly with less sources and expenses. When appropriately structured and executed, a referral program improves brand awareness, trustworthiness, and exposure. It is also an superb way to create faithful shoppers who will fight for your goods. Other advantages include things like amplified site visitors and a lot less selling price sensitivity. New shoppers purchase dependent on the trustworthiness of referral companions, which is usually quite superior.
Buyer Incentives
If you can give your shoppers a purpose to hold coming back again, the odds are fantastic they will. Standard shopper incentives include things like loyalty packages, coupons, and bargains. If you can few these with superior-quality goods, you will insert value to your goods and give shoppers a purpose to choose you frequently more than your competition.
Social Media Communication
Although the the greater part of companies have some social media presence, a good deal continue to fail to use social media the way it is meant to use. It really should be a platform for two-way conversation that incorporates open discussion, advertisements, and publicity. If you only use it for the latter two purposes, you are missing a good way to hook up with shoppers. Alternatively of only pushing out information by social media, test listening, accumulating and responding.
Buyer Testimonials
One particular of the most distinct approaches you can contain shoppers in your internet marketing initiatives is by inviting recommendations. These are superb tools for establishing trustworthiness and giving prospective shoppers an unbiased glance at the value of your goods or products and services. Just remember to stick to these straightforward rules:
- Be honest,
- Be specific and
- Becoming credible
Spend In Technology

The 4 types shoes of shoes pack to Vacation of Thailand
What shoes to wear in Thailand?
Whether you're coming to Thailand for a never-leave-the-resort beach vacation, city-sightseeing or a top-to-bottom exploration – at most, you need to pack just 5 pairs of shoes to wear in Thailand. Some links below contain affiliates. Enjoy!
#1. Flip-flops or slip-on sandals
You take off your shoes before entering Thai homes, temples, and many shops. For convenience,need take one flip flops for Thailand.
If your itinerary will be a loop of hotel – templs – pool – spa – food/drink – repeat, this will be your most convenient shoes for Thailand. They'll get you places comfortably, and will keep you cool while doing so.
#2. Lightweight Casual Walking Athletic Shoes
Do you need sandals with staying power?
Maybe – what do you have planned? Thailand is ready to offer you fantastic opportunities to explore jungle trails, waterfalls, national parks, remote temples and plenty of teeny, tiny islands.
#3. Dressier shoes
Do you need dressy shoes to wear in Thailand? Again, it depends what you have planned. Generally not, but Thailand has great nightlife and high-end dining – with matching dress codes. On Koh Samui, I pack a pair of topsqueen shoes for dinners at nice resorts, etc. Though, when you're dining on the beach, "dressy" can still be made of rubber. Often, gold sandals do the trick. As for dressy clothes, see what to wear out at night.
Unless you're an utter pro in heels, I recommend sparkly sandals or sturdy wedges as the best dressy shoes for Thailand. Whether in Bangkok or a beach town, sidewalks are uneven, lighting can be patchy and surfaces can be Teflon slippery.
#4. Rainy season shoes
If you're coming to Thailand in rainy season (that's October–December "ish" on Koh Samui), you'll definitely want to revisit the slip-proof options in #3. Many Crocs shoes make ideal rainy season shoes because One they're all rubber – nothing to dry out, Two they're grippy on the bottom, and Three they're comfy. Luckily, Crocs are atoning for past clog crimes with some much more acceptable offerings.

Offgrid Preparation Plant Lamps: Miniature Gardening Without Sunlight
This graphic offers a basic overview of some of the most common...
When you're "bugging-in" or hunkering down in one location for extended periods of time, it quickly becomes necessary to find sustainable food sources. No matter how many supplies you've stockpiled, if you can't leave your home, you're going to run out eventually.
In many cases, this means raising livestock or small-scale farming, but these methods aren't possible in a dense urban environment. If you're living in a small apartment or windowless basement, there's often not enough space, airflow, or sunlight to grow large plants.
A group called Studio We Love Eames has developed a product called the Mygdal Plant Lamp specifically for windowless rooms. It's essentially a unique take on the idea of a sealed terrarium, which is an enclosed glass jar that contains living plant in a tiny ecosystem.
The terrarium ecosystem requires no human intervention once it's set up—just add a small plant and some soil, water it once, and seal the jar. Amazingly, the plant inside can recycle its own water for years or even decades, as long as it has a steady light source.
Now, here's where the plant lamp comes in. The Mygdal device has a low-power LED light source at the top of the jar, which mimics the sun and allows plants to perform photosynthesis. As long as you've got a source for electricity (even battery packs, a generator, or remote solar panels outside the room) the plant will continue to grow for years. You don't even need to water it repeatedly.
Of course, if you run out of electricity sources, you can always set the terrarium somewhere where it can soak up sunlight naturally.
In a bug-in survival setting, this would be ideal for growing small vegetables, fruits, or herbs to supplement your diet. It's compact, sustainable, and requires almost no resources to grow—just a tiny amount of electricity (or natural sunlight) for a few hours each day. The warm light from the grow lamp also serves as a light source for your room.
Here are a few examples of food sources that sealed terrariums like the plant lamp can support:
Obviously, the lamps can also support inedible plants and flowers. No matter what plant you use, it will have the additional benefit of acting as a morale booster, since watching a plant grow over time can help you keep a positive mental state.

Smart Tips For Finding Cars
Advantages of Using RC Cars
If you are looking for a great gift for adventurous boys then RC cars is definitely something that you need to consider. Most RC cars are usually action packed and are ideal because they offer great source of entertainment. Some of the benefits that are associated with using RC cars are briefly highlighted below.
The use of RC cars is ideal and it is a great way for families to come together to bond. There are various tricks and hacks when it comes to using RC cars and it is something that everyone enjoys from time to time. Since they vary in speed, it becomes easy for users to choose a car that matches their skill level.
Like any other car, RC cars also need to maintained properly so that they are able to function well and as your kids learn to care for the cars it is easy for them to take care of everything else around them. Kids easily learn to be responsible when they learn such basic principle of maintenance. Since using the car is not complicated, kids will eventually learn how to use the cars even though they may need some help in the beginning.
Kids also learn to use skills like hand and eye coordination which ensures that your kids become more aware of the environment that is around them. Using the cars is important since it will help to instill this skill in your kids easily. Learning to use the controls is usually the hard part but once the kids are able to use it you are sure that their speed will quickly improve with time.
In most cases kids that are three years old can be able to use the cars and you are sure that it will be easy for them to cultivate a variety of motor skills. As kids get the opportunity to replace components, you are sure that they are able to gain various skills that will help to develop their minds. When you buy the RC car, ensure that you get extra parts as well since this will ensure that you are able to get more parts at discounted prices and it's something that your kids will enjoy.
The use of RC cars is also ideal since kids get to spend more time outdoors as well. Although most RC cars can be used outdoor, using them indoors offers a much better experience and it is something the kids will enjoy. Kids usually spend a lot of time indoors playing video games and other virtual games but RC cars are ideal since they will help your kids to enjoy spending time outdoors which is good for them.

SUSE Advances Kubernetes Integration with Cloud Foundry
The rise of Kubernetes has kicked off a furious debate over to what degree a platform-as-a-service environment such as Cloud Foundry should be redesigned to take advantage of a platform designed from the ground up to support cloud-native applications based on containers such as Docker. Now SUSE is moving to render that debate partially moot by making available a SUSE Cloud Application Platform that allows a containerized version of Cloud Foundry to be deployed on top of Kubernetes.
Gerald Pfeifer, vice president of products and technology programs at SUSE, says IT organizations are making it clear they would prefer having a common construct for deploying Cloud Foundry and Kubernetes. Both platforms address different requirements. Cloud Foundry, for example, is optimized for 12-factor applications, while Kubernetes is designed to run containers. But Pfeifer says IT organizations don't want to have dedicated separate DevOps teams to manage each one.
The SUSE move to containerize Cloud Foundry comes on the heels of a decision by the Cloud Foundry Foundation to add a Cloud Foundry Container Runtime to make it easier to deploy applications on Kubernetes. But from a management perspective, Pfeifer says that runtime does not go far enough in terms of unifying the management of both platforms.
Pfeifer also notes the containerized implementation of Cloud Foundry also consumes a fraction of the memory footprint of other Cloud Foundry distributions and, because it's based on Kubernetes and the SUSE Linux Enterprise operating system, scales easier and can recover faster.
While Cloud Foundry enjoys support from IBM, Pivotal and SAP, competition from rival container-as-service (CaaS) environments has put pressure on the Cloud Foundry Foundation (CFF) to simplify its PaaS environment. In addition, Red Hat has already moved to host its OpenShift PaaS environment on Kubernetes as part of a concerted effort to erase any distinction between PaaS and CaaS environments. Use of PaaS environments such as Cloud Foundry has been generally limited to high-end enterprise IT environments that have significant IT engineering talent capable of deploying the platform.
While much work remains to done in terms of simplifying Kubernetes, a massive amount of engineering resources already is being poured into Kubernetes by a larger open-source community. Even Docker Inc. is now making available an instance of Kubernetes as option to the Swarm container orchestration engine it developed.
The CFF has applauded the containerization of Cloud Foundry by SUSE, but has yet to signal whether the technology developed by SUSE will become an official part of the PaaS environment.
In the meantime, IT organizations can take some comfort in the fact that it's been proven possible to containerize Cloud Foundry. That means that investments in Cloud Foundry should be protected as Kubernetes continues to mature. In fact, one day it might not be possible to tell where Kubernetes leaves off and Cloud Foundry begins. Of course, that may have bigger implications for the CFF and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), which oversee Kubernetes, than it does for the average enterprise when you consider the fact that most every vendor in the CFF is also a member of CNCF.

German Estates: Frank Axmacher Smooth Freehand with Boxwood (2016) (Unsmoked)
Product Number: 004-005-4659
Frank Axmacher's work can usually be called a variation on the Danish school, often with some whimsical play on proportions or accents. This freehand is something else entirely, plump and Acorn-like of bowl, with a cinched waist leading to a similarly plump shank-end. The dark stain of the piece has been accented by a broad accent of pale boxwood, while the vulcanite mouthpiece is positioned with a rearward-flicking gesture and a lithe stance that gives the whole of the piece a touch of forward momentum. Excellent work, and still unsmoked.- Rachel DuBose
