Southend lifeboat launched to broken down jet ski during Lifeboat Open Day
Southend-on-Sea's RNLI volunteer lifeboat crew launched the Atlantic 85 lifeboat on Sunday (9 July) following reports from members of the public of a flare being spotted from a broken down and drifting jet ski approximately three quarters of a mile offshore from Shoebury Common.
The lifeboat crew, who were just about to launch as part of an open day exercise with the search and rescue hovercraft and the inshore lifeboat off Southend Pier, made their way quickly east to Shoeburyness and located the drifting jet ski with a father and daughter aboard, both ok.
The two and their jet ski were taken safely ashore to Shoebury Common Slipway and with all ok, the Southend inshore lifeboat made it's way back to the pier to join the slightly delayed public exercise.
Lifeboat helmsman Ed Kemp said: "We were having a very successful lifeboat open day at our pierhead boathouse, with many members of the public being able to see lifeboats and equipment up close and talk to members of crew, but the launching on service during this time, makes people very aware of what we are here for - saving lives at sea"

The awards recognize outstanding achievements in residential construction and renovation in B.C.
My House Design/Build/Team Ltd., has led the list of winners at the Georgie Awards, walking away with a total of eight awards, a total that matches the top number the firm has received in previous years.
The awards, which recognize outstanding achievements in residential construction and renovation in B.C., were presented by Todd Talbot, co-host of the television series Love It or List It Vancouver, at recent gala in Vancouver attended by a sold-out audience of more than 650 industry professionals.
The list of multiple winners also included Marble Construction, Forge Properties and Paramax Homes with three awards each, and Paradise Estates, Bercum Builders, Enzo Design Build Inc., Blackfish Homes and Solterra Development with two awards each.
"Our motto is to be on budget and on time," said Graeme Hueget, founder and principal of My House Design/Build/Team Ltd., of Surrey.
His firm's wins include Best Custom Home Valued between $1.9 million and $3 million, Best Residential Renovation under $100,000, Best Residential Renovation between $300,000 and $499,999, Best Kitchen Renovation under $125,000, Best Kitchen Renovation over $125,000, Best Certified Whole House Renovation and the Grand Georgie Awards for Residential Renovator of the Year and for Customer Satisfaction – Renovator.
Hueget described his winning home in the higher end $1.9 million to $3 million category, called Georgian Grandeur, as a "high performance" house that is both an Energy Star-rated home and a certified Platinum Built Green Home. "It is a home that is 40-per-cent more energy efficient than the basic building code," he said. The firm met that mark by making the home very air tight, controlling the interior air quality through ultraviolet air filtration and heat-recovery ventilation. His firm also installed an ultraviolet water treatment system to purify the water supply.
West Vancouver-based Paramax Homes won three Georgies for Custom Home Valued Over $3 million, Best Single Family Kitchen over $150,000 and Best Outdoor Living Space – New or Renovation, for the firm's work on King Georges, a palatial property in the West Van's toney British Properties. It previously won single Georgies in 2013 and 2104.
Paramax designer Jane Dabrowski described King Georges as a contemporary home using many beautiful and natural materials such as the custom-cut limestone on the exterior, the book-matched grey marble walls in the dining room and a Calacatta marble slab backsplash and island in the kitchen. "We have a great group of trades that we work with that bring our designs and ideas to fruition."
Forge Properties of White Rock also won three Georgies, all based on its Fantom project, a collection of 25 view homes in White Rock. The wins include a Grand Georgie for Marketing Campaign of the Year, plus a Georgie for Best Project Identity and another for Best Advertising Campaign.This is really exciting," said Cory Saran, principal of the 13-year-old multi-home developer. "We took our graphic design in-house so these wins are a lot more special for our team this year."
The marketing success was based on a clever campaign inspired by the Rorschach inkblot test developed by the Swiss psychologist of the same name in which subjects are asked to identify what they see in the ink blot.
Marble Construction of North Vancouver garnered three Georgies for Best Landscape- New or Renovation, Best Single Family Kitchen up to $150,000 and Best Custom Home Valued between $900,000 and $1,299,999 for modern homes in North and West Vancouver.
"We have won many awards from Ovation Awards and CHBA National housing awards, but this was the first time we got three Georgies in one year," said company spokesman Maziar Majidnejadi. "All three homes were built paying attention to details, and we believe they are worth Georgie Awards because of their world-class design and attention to details."
Other Grand Georgie winners were Paradise Estates of Kelowna for Residential Community of the Year, Bercum Builders of Kelowna for Custom Home Builder of the Year, Foxridge Homes of Surrey for Single Family Production Home Builder of the Year, and Zenterra Developments of Surrey for Multi-Family Home Builder of the Year. Paradise Estate also took this year's newest Georgie award–Best Single Family Home Production Development—for its Kelowna project, Paradise Estates.
The Georgies competition is open to all Canadian Home Builders Association members for entries that were built, renovated developed, created or marketed during the period Jan. 1, 2017, to Sept. 30, 2018. The winners are selected by a panel of out-of-province industry professionals. A full list of winners can be viewed at www.chbabc.org

If you grew up in Australia, you've grown up with the Chiko Roll. This crunchy tube of deliciousness is loved (and sometimes loathed) the country over. Which is why when we saw loaded Chiko Rolls had officially landed in Sydney we naturally had to find out all about it.
Behold the loaded Chiko Roll from Bar Luca—everything you'd expect from a Chiko, finished with chicken salt, liquid cheese (this will be good), jalapeños (you officially have our attention) and bacon.
Now, the million-dollar question is just how much this tube of calorie-filled goodness will set you back? For just 7 big ones this deep fried beauty is all yours. One thing's for sure; today is officially your cheat day.
Loaded Chiko Rolls are available until Sunday 5 February at Bar Luca.

Introduction: Suction Cup Fishing Rod Holder
So I have recently gotten into paddle boarding and instead of just getting exercise, figured I'd do a little fishing too. I did not want to drill the top of my paddle board and also wanted something removable. Thus, the suction cup rod holder.
Step 1: Parts List and Tools
-Rod holder, I already had one from my boat, but they run around $17 from Cabela's. If you are really crafty, you can probably build one from PVC
-Dual Suction Cup, the kind for moving glass $8 from Harbor Freight
-U-Bolts size varies by suction cup and rod holder, mine are 1.5"
-old bike tube
-socket wrench
Step 2: Construction
The first step in construction is mounting your rod holder base to the grip portion of the suction cup. Mine had a slight groove on the bottom that made it fit better on the round suction cup grip.
I cut a 3" by 3/4" piece out of an old bike tube to prevent the base from sliding around on the suction cup grip. This may not be necessary, but I thought it might help out.
Next I roughly mocked the u-bolts into the holder base to see how much I needed to cut off with the hacksaw. While cutting, I find it easier to screw the nuts beyond where I am cutting so they can re-thread the cut end when they come off after cutting.
Last step is to put it all back together, with the bike tube between the rod holder base and the grip of the suction cup. The u-bolts will "v" a little as they tighten, but be careful not to over do it.
Step 3: Gone Fishing
I was a little unsure of the holding power of the suction cups at first, especially with a couple of hundred bucks in gear being held on by it, so I opted for a safety rope on the first trip. I used 1/8" p-cord as a back up. But after a little testing and my first trip, I am very pleased with their strength. Make sure to wet the suction cups first!!! They hold much longer this way.
I was trolling some lead core line, going after rainbows and Kokanee. You don't really feel the added weight or drag of the gear behind you, but the turning radius is affected.
I chose to run the suction cups parallel on the board which I like the best (most of the pics show perpendicular). I also decided to run the rod in front of me for strike indication and ease of removal, I was able to angle it right so it didn't affect my paddling. Overall I like the quality and strength of this project. Good luck!

Nice solution! Looks sturdy and very well done.

Skip to comments.Obama barely stays awake chatting to student
Posted on 07/12/2014 6:15:41 PM PDT by Innovative
Already under attack by critics who say hes lost interest in his job, President Obama added fuel to the fire on Thursday with a drowsy appearance in Texas.
A heavy-lidded Obama struggled to keep his head up during a one-on-one talk in an Austin cafe with a college student whose parents lost their jobs last year.
(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
Obama is Bossy, Nosy, Sleepy and Dopey all in one Dwarf!!
In his college days, he boasted of his prowess with the white girls.
Then he had to "represent".
Jeremiah Wright introduced him to his beard.
I believe that.
The feckless fool on the hill strikes out again.
Send that link EVERYWHERE....
0 don't care
(What's with those three dots in his right ear???? )
He liked older white men.
she is young, probably cares more about contraception and homosexuals, and think Obama is a messiah who can do no wrong.
He;s never done a proper hard day work in his life and finds us minions boring and below him
But together, they made an interesting composite girl'frien'
He's one vile creature.
Sleazy, Wheezy, Greasy, Crappy, Mopey, Dopey and Crocked ... all rolled into one.
Said it before , but I honestly think he is on drugs.
I remember when he met some of the GOP and he was all tired, silent , eyes red and looking tired etc. They took a break ,and he was all bubbly and energetic.
Many times he has showed how he could be on drugs, but alas the majority of the media will ignore this.
The most important job in the country, and this butthole has never been investigated for a security clearance and has never had to take a drug test.
Stoney, Cokey, Speedy...
The day after some serious stonage, can be a *itch.
Not that I would know anything about such things. Just what I've been told and observed.
From the looks of Barry in TX, he was doing some.... Well, he was tripp'n. I think Valerie's has upped his meds. Too much $#!t coming at the child to deal with.
Needy, Greedy, Weedy ...
Now if it was the student, I could understand...
"The most important job in the country, and this butthole has never been investigated for a security clearance and has never had to take a drug test."
The sad thing is George W. Bush, his Attorney General, the Director of the FBI, the Director of the CIA, the Director of the NSA, John McCain, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, senior generals in the military, some journalists, high ranking Democrat political operatives and others in government knew the complete truth about Obama and they were silent during the 2008 campaign and the years since. If they knew and have maintained silence they are traitors.
The last patriot died many years ago.
...don't forget Weedsy.

He, Who Must Not Be Named
What's in a name? Does it ordain thy
Prestige and mien?
Whenever I began to bethink thee,
Thou evokes a sense of nostalgia,
A fervent longing.
But, thou is only beknownst as
"He, who must not be named."
For some things
Must be best kept hidden,
Unlabeled in the early stages
For it to be left unsullied,
To attain leeway,
Merriment and effervescence;
Unhampered by people's
Muddled judgement.
Though shrouded in anonymity,
With thee I always
Feel a sense of familiarity,
Conversing with you piqued my curiosity,
As well as rekindled something that I
Thought was lost already. Love.
My capability to love.
But will thou be satisfied
To be only remembered as
"He, who must not be named?"
We shall soon see.

The Ciaz is a spacious sedan. There is good head room and leg room both in front and at the rear. The seats are not the best but provide good comfort. It could have done with some more under thigh support. The boot is large at 510 litres and can fit in quite a lot of luggage with ease. This makes it a very practical sedan that can be used for weekend getaways too.
The Vento feels smaller as compare to the Ciaz, but it offers good rear legroom. There are a good number of storage spaces in the Vento too. The bootspace is 494 litres, which is a bit smaller than the Ciaz, but doesn't make much of a difference in real. The Ciaz is also longer than the Vento and has a longer wheelbase as well.

While the Ciaz is better in terms of space and premium looks, in the ride and handling the Vento comes out as the better one.

The Vento also has sharper handling and a better steering response as compared to the Ciaz.
Maruti Ciaz vs Volkswagen Vento Mileage
The Maruti Ciaz petrol returns 15 km/l for the manual and 13.5 for the automatic. The diesel returns 27 km/l and this is due to the SHVS technology.

I have never been to China. In fact, I have never been on a holiday or vacation at all. I have not experienced the wonders and mysteries of the eastern world, nor tasted their authentic cuisine. I have, however, taken a lovely mental journey throughout the stretches of China, from Hong Kong to Beijing, courtesy of a few compelling travel brochures.
A visit to China now on my list of "Things to do Before I Die" as I have been hooked in by the vast array of exciting new experiences and inspirational sights that are offered up to hungry tourist eyes. China it seems, is being "sold" to potential tourists as the ultimate package holiday; catering to the desires of everyone from the adventurer, to the foodie, to the photographer, to the ones who just want to get their "shop" on.
One of the main ways in which China is portrayed is through its magnificent historical sights. Brochure after brochure features images of ancient wonders such as the Temple of Heaven, The Great Wall of China and the Terracotta Army. Scattered amongst these historical snapshots are the stereotypical images of men and women hunched, straw hats on, over rice paddies; just to make sure us tourists don't forget that it's China we are drooling over. STA Travel describes its "Roam China" tour as a way to combat boredom with majestic sights and adventures that are sure to inspire.
When vacationing in China, tourists are not only able to witness ancient treasures and architecture, they are also reeled into the holiday by the beautiful natural scenery that is splashed across every travel book page. Kuoni's "Incredible China" tour includes cruises along China's Yangtze River that is described as having "beautiful mountain countryside and dramatic gorges". Photographs of winding rivers and mountains subdued by mist tantalise the eyes, drawing potential tourists further into the mysteries of China.
Panda Bears also seem to be a big selling point as their cute and cuddly (looking) faces are often featured in brochures. Vacationers are able to visit Chengdu's Giant Panda Breeding Research Base to get up close and personal with China's most famous, Bamboo eating bears.
However, for those individuals who are not so inclined to wildlife and nature, China has something for them too. The midnight lights and the hustle and bustle of cities like Shanghai and Beijing are offered for those who want to see the awesome skyscrapers or for those whose main aim is simply to hit up China's extensive shopping districts.
Chinese cuisine is also one of the key highlights for tourists. Brochures tickle the taste buds of potential travellers as they offer up the opportunity for those on tours to sample the many authentic dishes and specialities available. Foodies are given the best of both worlds, as they are able to roam around China's food markets sampling local delicacies and are also able to enjoy meals from many of China's modern restaurants.
China is clearly being sold as an exciting, inspirational and unforgettable country to visit. Brochures and websites alike boast a country that is not only steeped in ancient history and jaw dropping, natural scenery, but it seems that China is being bottled up as the ultimate cure for those of us suffering from an "average" life.
Although many of the featured highlights of a holiday in China are the amazing historical sights, it is very apparent that China is eager to show off its contemporary, new world status. "Modern" and "vibrant" are two words that pop up again and again in brochures portrayals of China. With nearly every vacation tour featuring the lights, sounds and tastes of the big super cities, whilst ensuring that customers are appropriately wined and dined in luxury, it appears that China is doing a pretty good job at representing the modern country status they so desire.

United States District Court, District of New Hampshire
December 30, 2014
The Prudential Insurance Company of Americav.Penny Santy, Solely as Administratrix of the Estate of Robert Santy; and Debra Menard Opinion No. 2014 DNH 263
Maureen Hingham, Esq. William Parnell, Esq. William Pandolph, Esq.
Andrea K. Johnstone United States Magistrate Judge
The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("Prudential") brought this interpleader action to resolve competing claims to the benefits of two Prudential life insurance policies. The defendants are Penny Santy, who was married to the decedent, Robert Santy, at the time of his death, and Debra Menard, Robert's brother's ex-wife. Prudential has been dismissed from the case. Menard moves to dismiss the complaint. Santy objects.
In 1988 and 1989, Prudential issued two life insurance policies to Robert Santy. Robert designated his brother, Richard Santy, as the primary beneficiary of the death benefits payable under the policies. Robert and Richard "were partners in a business, Santy Brothers Logging, and . . . the insurance was . . . purchased for business protection." Compl. ¶ 8. Robert designated Debra Menard, Richard's then-wife, as the contingent beneficiary of the policies. Although Richard and Menard got divorced in 2002, Menard remained the contingent beneficiary of the policies.
Robert died on December 9, 2013. Following Robert's death, Prudential was notified that Richard had predeceased Robert. Menard, as the contingent beneficiary, submitted a claim for the death benefits under the policies. Penny Santy, Robert's widow, subsequently contacted Prudential contesting payment to Menard. Prudential brought this interpleader action to determine which of the claimants is entitled to Robert's life insurance proceeds.[1] The court granted Prudential's assented-to motion to deposit funds into a court registry and to be dismissed from the case.[2]
Menard moves to dismiss the complaint, arguing that Santy does not have a valid claim to the death benefits under the policies. Santy objects.
Standard of Review
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) allows a defendant to move to dismiss on the ground that the plaintiff's complaint fails to state a claim on which relief can be granted. In assessing a complaint for purposes of a motion to dismiss, the court "separate[s] the factual allegations from the conclusory statements in order to analyze whether the former, if taken as true, set forth a plausible, not merely conceivable, case for relief." Juarez v. Select Portfolio Servicing, Inc., 708 F.3d 269, 276 (1st Cir. 2013) (internal quotation marks omitted).
Menard argues the case should be dismissed because there is no dispute that she is entitled to the death benefits as the contingent beneficiary of the policies. She argues that she had an insurable interest at the time the policy was issued and, therefore, her claim to the death benefits is valid. She also argues that her claim to the benefits became incontestable after two years under RSA 408:10.
In response, Santy argues that Menard "has no insurable interest in the life of the policyholder, Robert Santy, and therefore no right to the policy proceeds." Santy Obj. (doc. no. 14) at ¶ 22. Santy contends that Menard relinquished any interest in Robert's life or the logging business when she and Richard divorced. She also argues that the court should impose a constructive trust in Santy's favor on the death benefits.
A. Insurable Interest
The court notes at the outset that "New Hampshire embraces the majority rule that only the insurer can raise the object[ion] of want of insurable interest." Rice v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., No. Civ. 02-390-B, 2003 WL 22240349, at *1 (D.N.H. Sept. 30, 2003) (internal quotation marks and citations omitted). Thus, "[b]ecause [Santy is] ...

Ryan Ketterman recently shared a number of excellent photographs, ranging from commissioned works for editorial and corporate clients to imagery taken purely for personal use.
His latest editorial shoot sees Florida's new governor, Ron DeSantis, confidently looking out from the cover of Florida Trend Magazine (a monthly publication that covers the state's business, industry, education and leisure) while a recent corporate shoot shows the magical effects of long exposure when capturing the launch of a rocket in Cape Canaveral.
Last but not least, Ryan decided to share a personal piece taken in the late hours of downtown Portland. "Photographing bridges at night doesn't pay the bills", he says, "…but it will always have a special place in my creative heart."

Well, although I'd planned to write about the horror genre, I thought that I'd talk about first novels today.
This is mostly because, during the 2-3 months before preparing this article, I tried to write my first proper full-length novel ( apart from this old thing. Although that was technically a novella, still it felt like a novel at the time. But, I digress…).
And, yes, the full-length novel project was a horror novel. Well, technically, it was a post-apocalyptic alternate history dark comedy heavy metal zombie thriller with romance elements. But, "horror novel" is shorter.
Anyway, I ended up with a finished 63-chapter, 54,800-word second draft. But, after trying to improve the first draft for a couple of weeks, I realised that it wasn't even close to publishable quality.
It was a hell of a lot of fun to write, but after looking over it for a couple of weeks, I noticed so many faults and flaws (eg: unresolved plot points, crappy pacing, cardboard characters, bland dialogue, a confusingly non-linear timeline, very bland/repetitive narration in some parts etc..) that even the most extensive editing probably wouldn't salvage the thing.
Or, to put it another way, it wasn't something I thought was worth splashing out on a proper editor for or spending time trying to get published. Yes, I was amazed that I actually wrote the thing, but I didn't have the confidence in it that I'd expected.
This, of course, made me think of the classic writing advice about first novels. You know, the one about how they are never publishable. Of course, like I did, you'll think that you're the exception to the rule. That the manuscript that you've spent months on will break this gloomy, miserable rule. Well, after testing this rule out for myself, I thought that I'd offer some explanation for why people say this about first novels.
But, let me say this right now, your first novel isn't a "waste of time". Even if you are the only person to ever read the whole thing, it isn't a waste of time!
Your first novel is a way to practice writing a full-length novel. It is there to show you that you can write a novel (seriously, actually finishing it is a real confidence boost 🙂 ) and, more importantly, to show you what you need to improve for your second novel.
I cannot stress the importance of this second point enough! Your first novel is a way of revealing things about your writing that you might not have known before you wrote it. It is there to teach you what you need to do differently in your second novel. It is a dry run, a test, a practice project. When it fails, that failure shows you how not to fail the next time.
After all, if you were trying to learn any other skill, then you wouldn't expect instant perfection. You wouldn't expect your first cookery project, musical performance, online multiplayer match, craft project etc… to be the pinnacle of perfection. So, why is it any different with novels? With all of these things, you need to fail and learn from it before you become good at it.
You also need to do your research in order to know how and why you've failed. In the case of writing, this mostly involves reading lots of other novels. When you read a lot, you'll compare your first novel to the books you're reading and, chances are, you'll think "It isn't as good as them". The trick is to ask yourself why. Is it the characterisation? The writing style? The pacing? The structure?
If you do this, rather than just thinking "I'll never be as good as these other writers", then your unpublishable first novel won't be a waste of time. It will be an important step on the path towards your second novel. After all, you can't write a better second novel without writing a bad first novel beforehand.
So, yes, your first novel is important. It is very, very important. Because it won't be good enough to publish, not despite it. If you've actually finished your first novel, you are already better at writing novels than most so-called writers. If you think "I can do better next time", then you probably will.
Anyway, I hope that this was useful 🙂


text: Fishing Tips PRO RECOMMENDS DEEP DIVING PLUGS FOR SPRING STRIPERS Posted 4/13/2012 Capt. Brian Rice uses light tackle to troll for early season striped bass - Here's how he does it Captain Brian Rice ran the Jersey Devil, a 29' Yamaha-powered Contender®, from its slip in the Nevasink River down into Raritan Bay, a large embayment nestled between the tip of Sandy Hook, New Jersey and Staten Island, New York. He was headed toward the mouth of the Raritan River to an area of flats surrounding the main shipping channels. Upon reaching his destination, he slowed the boat, and the depth finder lit up with pods of striped bass hugging the bottom in 20-to-30-feet of water. This area is part of the larger estuary complex that is home to the Hudson River stock of striped bass, which also includes places such as Jamaica Bay and Western Long Island Sound. It is similar to other estuary complexes associated with the Chesapeake and Delaware Bay stocks of stripers, and they are all great places to fish for linesiders in the spring months. Mate Jim "Peaches" Massimino, Jr. shows off a particularly large spring bass that could resist a Stretch plug. The overwhelming majority of the East Coast striped bass population is comprised of cohorts from those three major spawning stocks. Younger stripers remain in these estuaries, using them as nursery areas until they are mature enough to join the larger fish on their annual migration cycles. The initial migration is back into the feeder rivers of their birth where they spawn. Stripers by the thousands will swim far upstream into freshwater, spawn and then come back down river, eventually moving back into ocean waters to recover and feed. From there, they begin their migration to their summer haunts, which can be anywhere from off the coast of New Jersey to as far north as Nova Scotia, Canada. In the late summer and early fall they head back south to their wintering grounds, which can be anywhere from New Jersey to the ocean waters off North Carolina. In the spring, younger bass that wintered over in the estuaries will begin to stir looking for food to recharge their strength after the sparse months. They will first feed on river herring and alewives that come in from the ocean to spawn in freshwater rivers, streams and ponds. The herring will soon be joined by menhaden, which are prime forage for striped bass, and the fattening up process will begin in earnest. As the time to reproduce grows nearer, larger breeders will begin to invade the same estuaries to feed heavily on baitfish while staging for their run upriver to spawn. During the prespawn months in spring, one of Rice's favorite techniques for catching striped bass is trolling with light tackle and deep diving plugs. These lures dive down far enough to be worked close to the bottom where the bass tend to hold most of the day. "My clients love this kind of fishing because we use light graphite rods, small, conventional reels and braided line, which lets them feel every lunge and head shake when fighting a fish," said Rice. "It's not very difficult to get started, but you will find there are nuances, little tricks, you have to learn." Deep diving plugs come in a variety of models capable of running at very specific depths and also in a whole host of colors. Brian trolls with a pair of Shimano Terez® conventional rods (7' medium action). They are light weight and have a soft action, which is excellent for two reasons. The rod tip pulsates in unison with the action of the plug so you always know if it is swimming correctly, and when a fish strikes, the rod bows to the fish just long enough for it to get the plug and then set the hook. He combines the rods with an appropriately sized conventional reel loaded with 30-pound test braided line. He also chooses reels with line counters that let him accurately adjust the distance the lure is running behind the boat, which can affect the running depth of the plug. The braided line is used for a reason, too. It has a smaller diameter than monofilament and hence less drag moving through the water so it allows the plugs dive to their full depth potential. He finishes up the system with a mono or fluorocarbon leader about 6 feet long and ties a snap swivel to the terminal end for quick plug changes. The lures for this trolling are all plastic body deep divers, which are available from a variety of manufacturers. Rice prefers Mann Bait Company's® "Stretch" series lures, which are available in a variety of models tuned to run at 10, 15, 20 or 30 feet in two different body shapes. He often uses Stretch 25s in several different colors with great success. "Color can be a factor especially in bay waters, which can vary from turbid to just-stained depending on how much silt the rivers are carrying into the bay on any given day," Rice said. "It pays to have a selection of colors from dark to bright chartreuse, and switch them off regularly until you see what the fish prefer." In the Hudson complex, this kind of fishing can start as early as late March, but most years April and May are prime for stripers. Timing is a little earlier in the Chesapeake and Delaware complexes as their waters warm earlier. The magic water temperature seems to be 50 degrees, then it's time to break out the plugs and troll. Here are a few of Rice's tips for getting the most from your diving plug trolling efforts. Keep an eye on your depth finder at all times. When you find an area where there are concentrations of bass, fish it hard. Be sure to track the bottom depth so you can switch off from deeper to shallower running plugs when needed. Stripers will tend to stay close to the bottom but will show up as strong returns. Start out using two different color plugs and see which one gets the most attention. If a pattern arises, switch the other rod to that color to up your catch. Use outrodders, special rod holders that hold the rods out to the side and horizontal to the water, to spread your lures farther apart. This allows you to run a third plug on a shorter line down the middle, too. Diving plugs are great spring striper producers, but can also catch well during the fall run in the open ocean so keep them handy whenever stripers are your target species. For southern fishermen, especially those who fish the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico, this same technique catches fish like gag grouper extremely well. Capt. Brian Rice, a native or the Raritan Bay area of New Jersey, shows off a nice bass. For more information about Jersey Devil Charters and Capt. Rice, visit www.jerseydevilcharters.com.

Procrastination Effects – Life Impacts
Procrastination Effects and It's Negative Impact on Your Life
Personal Development / Mindset
Everyone knows (to a certain extent) that procrastination is a negative habit, because it has a negative impact on a person's productiveness and general reliability in terms of accomplishing tasks and fulfilling responsibilities. Most (if not all) of the things that are worth pursuing and accomplishing require timeliness and consistency.
A person who habitually procrastinates will only do something if "he feels like it." Sometimes, procrastinators completely ignore the fact that they have responsibilities and commitments to other people. Procrastination is more than just a simple productivity issue.
Procrastination Effects on Health, on Relationships and on Life
It can become a deeply rooted cause of personal and professional malaise, because it can literally creep into every aspect of your life. To illustrate just how big the problem can be, I would like to take the opportunity to discuss the various effects of this habit with you.

"Stop Procrastinating! Mastering Time, Productivity and Getting Things Done" eBook
Here are some of the most notable negative consequences of procrastination:
1. You feel less responsible for your actions, because you no longer want to take action. Whenever someone asks you to do something, you tend to think of a dozen or more reasons why you can't do what is being asked. In the end, you do nothing, or you end up doing something that is not completely productive.
2. After a while, your procrastination catches up with you. People become angry with, or distrustful of, you. You may become anxious to catch up with the things that you should have been doing.
You also feel self-critical, and this ignites a vicious mental cycle of bitterness, and finding people to blame for the problems brought about by habitual procrastination.
3. You may not be doing anything at the moment, but you keep thinking of the things you have been held responsible for. Your mind is trying to warn you of the consequences, and you end up worrying about your responsibilities most of the day.
The worrying remains because you still choose not to act upon your own mind's warnings that you have to start, or you will end up having to face the negative consequences of your inaction.
4. When people start criticizing you because you procrastinate, you will feel like rebelling. Rebellious behavior often begins with the feeling that you are being victimized by someone or something. The knee-jerk response is rebellion.
Unfortunately, procrastination is the lowest form of rebellion. It has never been found useful in accomplishing necessary changes in a person's career or personal life. The only thing that procrastination is good at is accumulating problems, so that they will eventually bury the habitual procrastinator.
5. A procrastinator may develop a false kind of perfectionism. He becomes critical of his own skills and abilities to finish what needs to be done. He focuses on flaws and faults (imagined or not), and uses these as excuses not to do things in a timely fashion.
If other people are involved, a procrastinator-perfectionist may choose to play an endless blame game if something is not finished on time. Perfectionism, coupled with the procrastination and petty rebellion, is the perfect formula for failing any kind of pursuit.
6. The procrastinator's personal affairs are also impacted by his habit. Family members may become critical of his behavior, and he may feel like an outsider in his own home.
7. Procrastination can have very negative effects on your physiological, aswell as psychological, mental health. It will eventually through you into a downward spiral and affect all aspects of your life negatively.

When you have car trouble, getting it running again should be your priority. Not having a reliable vehicle will make getting around so hard. You don't need to pay huge amounts of money for repairs. There are a great number of basic repairs you can do yourself.
Make sure you do not neglect the radiator in your car. Run your engine for several minutes, turn it off then pop the hood.You never open the radiator if your car that is running. Check radiator fluid by using a dipstick and remember to always mix the coolant with water before putting it in the radiator.
If you need clarification, don't hesitate to clear this up with the mechanic before allowing him or her to make repairs to your vehicle. You don't want to be surprised with added charges when you were expecting.
Ask the technician at the repair shop you are considering if they have worked on the same make and model of vehicle before. If they have, that's a very good thing.
Go through your automobile's manual and dog ear the most useful pages. You could even find the answer to a problem in your car manual can help you fix the issue.
Don't leave valuables in your car when it's being repaired.Mechanics may need to take these items out to do the work and they cannot be held responsible if an item is damaged or missing. Remove everything from the trunk too.
Look for signs that your mechanic is not as competent as you might hope. If your mechanic talks in confusing terms or tells you not to worry about the details, they may not be reliable. You need to be able to trust the person doing your repairs, so don't fear seeing someone else.
Make sure the mechanic you hire knows about your particular car.If you're not sure, take it to the dealer instead.
A spare tire and a jack are essential items to keep in case of an emergency. Many newer cars have them. You don't need to be stuck out in the road and need to pay a tow. It is much easier and cheaper to do it yourself.
You do not have to always take your vehicle to an expensive repair shop to get it running again. Quite often you can solve basic issues right in your own garage. Implement what you've learned to help get your car on the road again.

Meghan Markle's Bucket List Reveals the Royal's Surprising To-Dos
Meghan Markle is the most relatable royal we've had in the U.S., well, ever. While we can't all be household names, actresses, and committed philanthropists, Markle still has a down-to-earth side that makes her marriage to Prince Harry feel just a bit like a fairytale.
It's safe to assume that everyone, royalty or not, has a bucket list (we'd kill to see Queen Elizabeth II's) and Markle is no different. We've found a few of Markle's future plans from her now-extinct blog's archives, as well as one bucket list item she's admitted to which has us eager for what's to come from Markle and Prince Harry (page 5).
Her old blog gave us some insight
Unbeknownst to many, Markle used to run the now-defunct lifestyle blog The Tig. Markle dedicated the blog to travel and food content and referred to it as a "hub for all things I find exciting." While The Tig is no more, a few blog posts still exist and offer an exclusive look into Markle's personality, her ambitions, and what she wants to accomplish in the future (page 4).
She turned her New Year's resolutions into a lifestyle
While we didn't gain access to Markle's 2018 New Year's resolutions, she wrote a blog post in 2016 about resolutions which shared some valuable intel on the future royal. You can apply them any year, at any time, as Markle intended. The resolutions she listed (we'll go over those next) coincide with her future goals as a member of the royal family.
Markle's bucket list, of sorts, is relatable and, unsurprisingly, as down-to-earth as the former actress and philanthropist appears. The following former resolutions and future hopes are unlike any another future royal family member has publicly made and may surprise you.
She's working on her language
While Markle made it a goal to need the disclaimer 'Pardon my French' less frequently, she also wanted to become fluent in the language. "Run a marathon. Stop biting my nails. Stop swearing. Re-learn French," Markle wrote, claiming that these resolutions made her list every single year.
The blog post marks the year she resolved to not have a resolution, reminding herself and readers that if it takes a couple years (rather than just one) to become fluent in French or stop swearing — that's OK. "I often find myself wallowing in disappointment when I set a goal I can't achieve … And at 34 years old, I'm over that."
Her conclusion? Leave room for the magic
The year of the post in question — 2016 — also marks the year that Markle began dating Prince Harry. So, it's only appropriate that the only thing she aimed to do in the new year was "… to approach life playfully. To laugh and enjoy, to keep my standards high but my level of self-acceptance higher."
Markle also took the advice of her Suits castmate and friend, Gina Torres, who told her, "Meg … Make sure you leave room for magic." Markle took it upon herself to follow this advice, encouraging herself and those reading to set goals while remaining open to change and, of course, magic.
She wants kids
In 2016, Best Health Canada interviewed Markle about a few of her bucket list items for the future. While she listed growing The Tig and continuing acting (both of which Markle has ceased, at least for now, as she embarks on her royal journey), the one item that caught our eye wasn't career-oriented. "Other bucket list items: I want to travel more and I can't wait to start a family, but in due time," Markle said.
Harry seemed to be in agreement while talking to BBC's Mishal Husain in the couple's first joint interview. "Not yet no," he said about having children, "But I think eventually, one step at a time, and we'll start a family in the near future."
She has checked off meeting the royal family
And with flying colors at that. Markle, who had met Queen Elizabeth II "a couple of times" prior to the engagement, found the Queen to be "an incredible woman." Markle also became the first royal fiancee to spend the holiday with the queen before marrying into the royal family.
Both Markle and Prince Harry have made clear how important family is to them. "His family has been so welcoming," Markle said of the royal family, "… it's been really important to me too … The family has been great and in the past year and a half, they've made me feel a part of, not just the institution, but of a part of the family [sic]."
As well as living out her dreams
Markle announced her departure from Suits along with her engagement to Prince Harry and plans to focus on her philanthropic efforts in the future. In their first joint interview, Markle discussed her "transition" out of her career as "exciting," noting that she plans to focus more energy on the causes that have been important to her.
"You realize that as you have access or a voice that people are willing to listen to, [it comes with] a lot of responsibility, which I take seriously," she said. Markle has prepared for her new chapter and is excited to work "as a team" with her husband… something the rest of the U.S. and the U.K. alike are excited to see pan out.

Humor us for a bit while we complain about a brave new world obsessed with prequels and sequels and spin-offs. Today's potential potential franchise news involves no less a perfect piece of art than "The Sopranos." And please don't ignore us when we grumble this is why we can't have nice things.
Of course, there is no concrete news. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, "Sopranos" creator David Chase poo-poo'd the idea of a sequel to The Greatest Show Ever (Although Maybe That's "The Wire").
"I wouldn't want to see that happen, no," Chase told EW. "Like recasting? … Everybody's getting older, you can't match people anymore."
Phew! Except that then Chase had to go and say this: "I could conceive of maybe a prequel of 'The Sopranos' … I could never see [a return of the show] except as a prequel."
Note: He didn't say he was seriously considering a "Sopranos" prequel. "I could conceive of maybe" is as far as he went. HBO has since confirmed that there are no plans to prequelize the show that kickstarted our current Golden Age of Television. It's just Chase spit-balling, idly thinking out loud, except he was thinking out loud to a journalist with a running recorder.
Still, even an "I could conceive of maybe" was enough to drive the Internet into a tizzy. Perhaps you're already mentally casting a young Tony. Maybe John Magaro, the young actor who played the late James Gandolfini's son in Chase's terrific, depressingly ignored 2012 film "Not Fade Away"?
But you know what? Stop. Stop right there. There doesn't need to be more "Sopranos." Isn't 86 episodes — each one rich enough for endless rewatches — enough? How greedy are you? And isn't your obsession with filling in the entire lives of fictional characters — with prequels and sequels, trailing them from DNA to the cold touch of death's hand — maybe a little sick? By obsessing over characters who aren't even real, aren't you really betraying your fear of your own mortality? Just be thankful for what you've got, namely six (or in some cases less) seasons with Tony and Carmela and Dr. Melfi and Christopher and Adriana and Paulie and that one hooker Tony was banging that one time.
Anyway, it's time to move on and accept that there should be no more "Sopranos" — and, while we're at it, that Tony [SPOILER] totally ate it in the last episode.

WIRRAL'S parking wardens could soon be standing in for lollipop men and women under a new contract being negotiated by the council.
However, the council is expected to retain the controversial CCTV camera car which is a longstanding part of the contract with NSL – formerly NCP – to provide parking enforcement across the borough.
The new plans could also see wardens being given new powers to hand out tickets to people littering the borough's streets.
Cllr Lesley Rennie, cabinet member for street scene, said she had approved a report which is expected to be presented to cabinet early in September outlining the details of the new contract.
Cllr Rennie said: "The recommendation is that we award the contract to the company which had it previously."
The contract with NSL was first awarded in 2003 for five years with an option to extend it for two years. This latest contract will again be for five years with an optional two additional years.
Cllr Rennie said: "There are just a few other things we have asked them to do. That is around powers for enforcement for litter and filling in for crossing patrols if needed – they will not be replacing them."
Wirral Council is responsible for 105 school crossing sites.
Cllr Rennie said they would also be asking the parking wardens to be an "extra pair of eyes" spotting problems with the road network – such as pot holes – or on pavements.
"It makes sense that everyone who works for the council should be our eyes and ears around the borough."
She said: "Most controversial was the CCTV – or spy – car, but I'm keen to keep that, not because we're "Big Brother" spying on people, but primarily because of the importance of road safety, particularly around schools.
"I've asked Dave Green – director of technical services – to ensure particularly that schools have far more use of the car."
Earlier this year it was revealed that a quarter of parking tickets handed out each year in Wirral are later cancelled by the authority, according to details released under the Freedom of Information Act.
Since deregulated parking was introduced in the borough in 2004, around 39,000-41,000 tickets have been issued each year.
But between 8,000 and 10,000 tickets a year are later cancelled.

Consider this scenario. It is already summer, a time for the beach parties and swimming. You always wanted to join the beach parties and gimmicks. You want to protect your skin, however, from the harmful skin irritants from the environments, including the ultra violet radiation, the salty water, and the hot weather. What are the summer's harmful irritants? And how do you protect your skin from these irritants?
People used to think that the sun is healthy for the skin, especially for those who have acne because it burns off the acne. True. However, over exposure from the harmful Ultra violet radiation can worsen your acne, if you have. Ultra violet radiation is also harmful to the skin. Your acne may burn off for a while, but the sun could not penetrate the root cause of your acne, so most probably the acne will persist. Over exposure to the sun will result in sun burn.During the summer, we sweat a lot. So, we also wipe our face frequently. Wiping the face frequently is a no, no for those with acne. You may wash your face with a luke warm water but do not wipe the face too frequently. It will irritate your skin.
Another irritant is the over exposure to sun and wind. This will dry your skin, which is unhealthy. Dryness cracks the skin. Wind carries with it dust and bacteria which may clog your pores and result in acne.
Sunscreens should be selected wisely. Avoid those which have high percentage of oil because they are not good for your skin pores. They may worsen the acne condition or they may result in pimple outbreak.
Sea water, too, is a skin irritant. Sea water is unclean.
What can you do to protect your skin while on a beach party on a summer?
First, you have to wash your skin with Salicylic Acid and SD Alcohol. This will keep your skin and pores dry and clean.
Second, apply herbal antiseptic medications to prevent bacteria from entering your skin.
Third, you have to use protection cream which will shield your skin from grime, bacteria and avoid accumulation of sebum.
Now, you are ready. Enjoy the summer beach party!

It's just me yo.
No, really. THIS is how I do it.I think about a lot of random stuff and I like to write it down. I believe in a lot of things and I think an equal amount of stuff is total crap. I am a cynical optimist. I am real. I like synchronicity and idiosyncrasy. My brain works quickly, which does not guarantee accuracy but is not A.D.D. Usually my mouth works even more quickly. I thought being really tall and living in Asia was pretty cool; but I am super glad to be back in California now. I want to be happy, bendy and satisfied... Because really, who wouldn't?

NASA's budget is set by an annual process that begins with a proposal from the White House and ends with legislation passed by Congress and signed by the President. The budget specifies funding amounts for programs and projects in human spaceflight, space science, aeronautics, technology development, and education.
NASA's budget peaked during the Apollo program in the 1960s. After the United States won the race to the Moon, space exploration lost political support and NASA's budget was cut significantly. Since the 1970s, NASA has hovered between 1% and 0.5% of all U.S. government spending.
NASA's annual budget since its inception, adjusted for inflation using the NASA New Start Inflation Index. The vertical axis displays NASA's total congressional appropriation in billions of dollars. The horizontal axis is fiscal years. Detailed data including outlays, alternate inflation indicies, non-inflation adjusted numbers, and White House budget requests are available to view or to download as an Excel spreadsheet.
NASA is internally divided into major program areas, each of which receives funding to manage their specific types of projects. The exact breakdown varies from year-to-year, but generally about half of NASA's annual budget is spent on human spaceflight activities, thirty percent on robotic missions and scientific research, and the remainder split between aeronautics, technology development programs, salaries, facilities management, and other overhead.
None of NASA's budget is used for national defense or intelligence gathering programs; it is a civilian agency responsible for the peaceful exploration of space. The Department of Defense and a handful of intelligence agencies are responsible for those space efforts.

The White House provides a detailed budget proposal to Congress every February which kicks off an annual process known as "appropriations", which ultimately results in legislation passed by Congress and signed by the President that funds the federal government.
The proposal that begins this process is called the "President's Budget Request", which itself is the outcome of year-long negotiations, first within NASA and then between NASA and the White House's budget office. The President's Budget Request includes a justification and explanation for all of the space program's activities. It can also contain proposals to cancel projects or to begin new ones. The priorities reflected in the budget request reflect that of the President, and the document can just as easily be read as a political statement by the executive branch.
The President's Budget Request does not carry the force of law, though it does set the terms of the debate for the legislation that is subsequently written by Congress.
Once the White House sends its budget proposal to Congress, key congressional committees in the Senate and the House of Representatives craft legislation to fund NASA. Through this process, Congress decides whether to accept or reject proposals contained in the President's Budget Request and whether congressional funding levels for NASA's programs and initiatives will match, exceed, or fall short of the levels proposed by the President.
The legislation must be passed by Congress and signed by the President before the start of the fiscal year on 1 October. If not, NASA loses its authority to spend money and cannot honor contractual obligations, provide paychecks, or otherwise function.
Note: Lessons 3 - 5 of The Planetary Society's free online course, Space Advocacy 101, explore this topic at greater depth.
The majority of spending by the United States government pays for social welfare programs and is not subject to annual congressional approval. This spending is referred to as "mandatory". Only about 30% of all U.S. government spending requires approval every year by Congress—a category of spending referred to as "discretionary". The Defense Department and related activities account for roughly half of all discretionary spending. All other government agencies and activities—including NASA—are funded from the remaining amount.

NASA spends its money on Earth, not in space. NASA employs about 17,000 people and supports the employment of tens of thousands more through contracts and grants made in every state of the union. Last year NASA spent 73.5% of its total budget on contracts with nearly 5,000 businesses, nonprofit organizations, and educational institutions across the United States. NASA's major contractors—Boeing, Lockheed-Martin, SpaceX, and Orbital Sciences—are the biggest recipients of NASA funding, though they in turn work with many additional supplies and businesses.

According to a report by The Tauri Group, NASA provides broad social and economic benefits to the United States. In particular, NASA:
The value of NASA is more than economic and technological. Investments in the space program helped us learn where we came from. It revealed the very earliest era of the cosmos and demonstrated the rarity and fragility of Earth: the only planet known to have life in all of the universe. Investments in the space program proved that two hostile nations could compete in the peaceful arena of exploration, and then work together to create an International Space Station. NASA builds partnerships around the world based on a common desire to work peacefully together to explore the cosmos and extend the reach of humanity beyond our planet. And individuals around the world find themselves in awe of the wondrous scale and beauty of the cosmos.
NASA is a small investment by the United States, yet it represents the country's biggest ambitions. It is the manifestation of the dream that, by working together and by working smartly, humans can overcome the most daunting challenges. It is the dream that the future will be better than the past. It is the dream that we can achieve anything we want, if we choose to do so.

I have been visiting the Olive Tree restaurant since its inauguration in 1998 and have always admired the dedication of the owner Karen, who has recently handed the restaurant over to the capable hands of Sandra and Harvey. Sandra has worked alongside Karen for the past 5 years and has kept the menu in the same vein as before with a fantastic mix of international choices.
Sandra and David, the chef, are a formidable team in the kitchen, producing wonderful creations that we 35 Chicas were all thrilled to receive.
As we arrived we were greeted on the sunny terrace with a smile, cava and canapés, even the mini sausage rolls were served warm.
As with every other month I asked each table for comments which were all enthusiastically positive apart from noting that there was quite a wait for our meals, however everyone agreed that it was a worthwhile wait as the food came piping hot, creatively presented and was delicious. One Chica, a professional cook, stated her soup starter was excellent; liver too was described as the best ever served at a restaurant. The separate dishes of vegetables were well received and again served hot.
Our choices today were soup; mussels; goat's cheese salad and fish cakes for starters. Main courses were Liver and bacon; chicken; salmon or Thai green curry.
My choice of Thai green curry was superb. Sandra said she works from the heart and this was very evident in the food and service. Well worth a visit. How can we top this lunch!

TeamLease Services surged 12.25% to Rs 1,874 at 10:45 IST on BSE after the company said that it will acquire around 40% stake in Schoolguru.The announcement was made during market hours today, 8 November 2017.
Meanwhile, the S&P BSE Sensex was up 61.77 points, or 0.19% to 33,432.53. The S&P BSE Mid-Cap index was up 69.51 points, or 0.42% to 16,612.97, outperforming the Sensex.
On the BSE, 1,295 shares were traded in the counter so far, compared with average daily volumes of 1,234 shares in the past one quarter. The stock had hit a high of Rs 1,948.95 so far during the day, which is also a record high for the counter. The stock had hit a low of Rs 1,675 so far during the day. The stock hit a 52-week low of Rs 828.05 on 5 December 2016.
The mid-cap company has equity capital of Rs 17.10 crore. Face value per share is Rs 10.
TeamLease Services and Schoolguru Eduserve, an online learning company that works with 18 Universities, announced the signing of a definitive agreement under which TeamLease will acquire around 40% stake in Schoolguru.
The transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals and is expected to close before the end of November 2017. Schoolguru will continue to operate as a separate and independent entity.
Schoolguru is India's premier technology-led specialized academic services organization established in 2012.
TeamLease is looking at expanding its portfolio of employability services through this deal. The company, which has been operating since 2002, mainly offers temping services where it provides temporary workforce to its clients on a contract. This allows clients to hire without adding to their direct employee base. This employment and business model is closely associated with sectors like manufacturing, banking, FMCG, FMCD, telecom and retail, among others.
Schoolguru's online platform that is linked to several universities across the country will help TeamLease strengthen its candidate base. TeamLease also plans to expand its apprenticeship program, NETAP, by offering an opportunity to the students of the partner Universities thereby helping them 'learn on the job' and improve their employability quotient.
The ODL (open and distance learning) regulations published by the Universities Grant Commission and the draft regulations for online programs create huge regulatory space for technology to improve higher education and expand its employability quotient. Schoolguru is uniquely positioned to help higher education institutions deliver such digital learning services using its managed platform.
The transaction involves the purchase of both primary as well as secondary shares of the company through a structured deal. The purchase of additional stake by TeamLease is linked to the company's future performance and meeting its milestones.
TeamLease infusion of Rs 13.53 crore into the company shall be primarily used to expand its business into new geographies, strengthen its existing technology and content library, and innovate in new forms of delivery.
TeamLease Services' consolidated net profit rose 98.1% to Rs 17.43 crore on 21.2% rise in net sales to Rs 875.61 crore in Q2 September 2017 over Q2 September 2016. The result was announced at the fag end of the session yesterday, 7 November 2017.
TeamLease Services is one of India's leading human resource service companies in the organized segment.

Big Move In Metals Coming
Kitco Commentaries | Opinions, Ideas and Markets Talk
Featuring views and opinions written by market professionals, not staff journalists.
The big move is coming. We know that markets don't announce themselves, but they do leave footprints. The footprints being left in metals are telling us that the tug-of-war between the bulls and the bears can only lead to a major breakout.
Monday's action proved that someone is going to take control of this market and break it out either up or down. We don't know when and we don't know which way, but our expectations are in the next week or two, the metals will break out of the trading ranges they have been in for months.
First the metals found a higher support level. Second, they are now trading in narrower ranges. Traders should use this pattern to observe and wait for the metals to commit to one direction or the other. As they say in horse racing, this one can go either way and we will be watching.
Keep those stops tight.
