Maritime security covers more than anti-piracy measures, and crews should be prepared for all the risks that they may face.
The last 12 months have seen an increase in reported maritime security incidents, including the return of Somalia- based piracy on merchant ships in the Indian Ocean, the consistently violent threat of piracy and terrorism in the Philippines and the surrounding area, and on-going issues in the Niger Delta, putting all types of vessels transiting the West African coastal waters at risk. However, all of these only take into account one side of 'maritime security' as an issue; that of violent attacks on the vessel and its crew for the purpose of kidnap for ransom, underpinned by unresolved conflicts and disenfranchised populations on land.
Maritime security is far broader a subject than these headline- grabbing issues. It encompasses various other physical threats encountered by the shipping industry as vessels transit the globe, including stowaways, local corruption and opportunistic robbery in ports. South America in particular has seen high levels of armed robbery in Venezuela and Peru. These are all problems that ship operators, P&I clubs, charterers and agents must deal with, sometimes on a daily basis. However, there is one group of people who deal with it on a face-to-face basis: ships' Masters and their crews.
Is there a need for training?
Security regulations have been part of everyday life in shipping ever since the introduction of the ISPS Code. However, any plans or procedures are solely reliant on the people that are (or are not) enacting them. Unlike safety training, security training is not mandatory. And yet, a crew equipped and trained to deal with maritime security threats of all types is a crew that is confident going about their tasks on board, and can complete them efficiently and to the best of their ability.
Security training should not be seen as an additional cost to the shipping industry, but as something that will increase efficiency
on board and give crews confidence in dealing with the threats. Ultimately, it could save the shipping industry money by countering threats in a cost effective and early manner, as opposed to hoping the worst does not happen, and then ultimately paying much more for it if it does. This is particularly the case when dealing with stowaways, where costs can reach tens of thousands of dollars.
This is not to say that crews should be armed. Additional armed security personnel are warranted only where there is a direct threat to the lives of seafarers, typically in the case of piracy. However, the other areas of maritime security (dealing with stowaways, local corruption, cyber security and robbery in ports) do not pose an immediate direct threat to the lives of seafarers. Crew training can greatly mitigate these risks and threats without the deployment of additional security personnel.
Stowaways are one of the oldest problems in transport infrastructure. Current migration patterns caused by conflicts and environmental problems mean the situation shows no sign of improving in the near future. Despite attempts to combat the problem by some local port and maritime authorities, such as Ghana and Ivory Coast, stowaways continue to cost the shipping industry millions of dollars every year, not just in repatriation and immigration fees, but also in damage to vessels and cargo. An understanding of what makes a vessel an attractive prospect for a stowaway will immediately reduce the chances of unauthorised access. The steps taken to make it 'unattractive' will also have the effect of reducing the chance of robbery whilst in port. These include a visibly alert crew, good hardening and well-run watch schedules.
There have been efforts to counteract local corruption, including the excellent work being done by the Maritime Anti-Corruption Network. Training crew to deal with solicitations and threats can introduce a proactive approach that will help remove opportunities for corruption, thereby reducing the instances of this problem.
Physical and psychological aspects
Ideally, two aspects of security should be covered during training: both physical and psychological. 'Physical' security covers the implementation of vessel hardening measures such as razor wire, security gates, citadel creation (if required) and barring of windows. 'Psychological' security means ensuring the crew are aware of threats and preparing them to deal with them. Corrupt officials, stowaways and robbers rely on crews that are not alert, so that they can either sneak on board due to lack of effective watch routines or can take advantage of crews that are far from home and easily intimidated.
ARC saw this first hand in 2016, when we were requested to provide stowaway training to the crew of a vessel which regularly calls at West Africa, and which had recently experienced multiple stowaway boardings during one transit to the region. While the majority of the day-long training focused on hardening the vessel against unauthorised access and on search techniques, a significant part of the question and answer session and walk around with the crew was spent advising on how to deal with local officials and stevedores who had made life difficult during previous transits, including requesting extra cash and being uncooperative when the crew refused. This demonstrated the breadth of problems that crews in this region, and others worldwide, have to deal with.
Be alert!
An inattentive crew, unobstructed and easy access to the vessel, and visible nervousness, make a vessel a tempting prospect for all maritime security threats. A visibly alert crew with well-run watch schedules, security measures that are well maintained and visible to the outside observer, and confidence when dealing with local officials will immediately show that this is a vessel that will be difficult to access, with a crew who are confident in their abilities to deal with any problems. In an industry that is trying to reduce costs, and at the same time trying to modernise itself against the threats towards its people and assets, security training is the most effective way of doing so, both in terms of cost and operational effectiveness.

When it comes to fixing cars, you may feel like you are totally clueless. If so, you do not have to accept your powerlessness. Keep reading in order to learn some basic auto repair tips.
Make sure that your mechanic is A.S.E certified before you let them work on your car. This certification confirms the the mechanic has a lot of experience working on cars. This also means that you have an experience, knowledgeable repair person working on your car.
Don't sign anything until you know the total cost of repairs. Should you need clarification about the repairs, speak with the service manager or your mechanic before work begins. You don't want to be surprised with a higher charge than you were expecting.
You need to see if the mechanic has ever done work on the exact same type of car before. If they have, you should feel better about their ability to solve your problem.
Every time your car is repaired, regardless of how minor the problem was, make sure you keep a record. If your car has issues in the future, it is useful to be able to give your mechanic all such records. You might end up paying more if you don't have them, because it will be more difficult to diagnose the issue.
Look out for any mechanics that add unnecessary repairs. A mechanic that's good will tell you whether or not a pert is beginning to wear out, but they're not going to replace things without your permission first. If a mechanic does unnecessary repairs, find someone else who is more trustworthy.
Remove valuable things from your car prior to taking it in to get fixed. To get the job done, mechanics may have to remove your things and if something should end up missing, they cannot be held responsible. Everything needs to be taken out of your trunk too.
Try figuring out the issue prior to going to get repairs. A bit of money can be saved in this way, and you may stay away from fraudulent people. As you have probably heard, there are mechanics out there that will be dishonest so they can charge you more money.
Put together an auto repair kit and keep it in your car. Your car came with equipment needed for changing a tire. Get a lug wrench and jack if you do not have one yet. A Philips head as well as flat head screwdriver should be helpful, plus socket and adjustable wrenches. Never buy really cheap tools. Choose tools which will last the test of time, especially when they're required.
Replace your light bulbs on your own. It's easier to do in some cars, but it's more cost effective than hiring a mechanic. Ask a friend if they'll help you learn how its done.
The tips you just read will help you maintain your vehicle properly. Avoid the hassles and potential swindles of any repair shop experience and come out on top. Learn all you can by reading the following article.

Reiki Compass
We continue in exploration of Reiki and pragmatically verifing what belongs to Reiki system and what not.
Here is unique Reiki representative Mikao Usui who has received Reiki consecration from monk who was autistic and lived exclusively with meteorites and he wasn´t interested about anything else. He almost whole life lived with only meteorites and his psyche perfectly merged with them. But this can be considered as autistic madness. I am able find any grave space by oracular techniques. Over the grave is sign of Reiki meteorite. You can imagine it as a spherical shape in a size of a small plate and around a lot of lighting effects. It could be copied into the aura of every living person. But beware, this sign functioned over his head and not in the navel, as seen at the burial place Hawayo Takata who was pupil of Chujiro Hayashi. Reiki today contains the character in the navel area and it does not matter where it comes from – from Tibet, China or America.
Group of reiki people under leader Sasa Pueblo is not interested in maintaining Reiki in the navel area which Reiki person Hawayo Takata did. This Reiki is considered more for relax and light healing and serious healing effects can not be achieved with it. Here is clear return to original tradition of Mikao Usui and the symbol reclaims above the head and not in the navel area. For sure we do not practise Tibetan Reiki which is based for example on Buddha statues. We have Tibet and their spirituality in deep esteem but we are interested in development extremely efficient reiki system which is not and never will be for relax and shared pleasure.
Reiki meteorite as the base of the platform for practical realization in healing and spritual area. Reiki meteorite as the basis for practising all spiritual and healing systems. Here I´m writing also about practical action which is also interested in what will be after the death of the human. Reiki meteorite follows the system of Mikao Usui who has symbol of Reiki meteorite and this which could be copied by Japanese Reiki person from over Mikao Usui burial place. The symbol is not copied into the navel area but over the head and into the aura around the head.
Of course, Mikao Usui has some more secrects which we uncovered by oracular techniques. In the first place he had in himself the twin who felt paralyzed inside in embryonal development and this is the unique level where in himself operated prehistoric periods in the range of 4 billion years into the past. His twin was approximately in the thoracic and this was the source of unique usage for Reiki meteorite.
If I want write here about paranormal activities than I would need Reiki meteorite consecration and enrich this consecration by copies of more stronger symbols from Samurai Reiki. These much stronger Reiki signs are again and again copied from samurai burial places. Samurais worked whole their life with swords which contains for sure molten meteorites. And so here is samurai and fantastic rotation by samurai swords which has unique dynamics. Thus those samurai Reiki symbols are used.
Then we have Reiki bones. This is about Philippine healers who produce healing signs in the form of spherical transparent and beautiful shape full of reddish rays. Here we don´t have connection to meteorites but to specific bones of Philippine healer whose bones are often attacked by tuberculosis. Their bones keep prehistoric structures that are gradually grow in bones of Philippine healers and they substitute original bones. And here is the phenomenon that creates a healing symbol. These features do not work in the navel area, but over the heads of Philippine healers. If Philippine healer dies his symbol appropriates to new healer. We perceived by oracular techniques that something is missing over the burial place and we were led intuitively where is this character. Of course, that in live Philippine healer.
As I described upper, inside of Mikao Usui is embryo with structures from prehistoric development. Philippine healer has modified prehistoric bones. Then here are indigo children who have inside of them open prehistoric structures. These structures describe evolutionary medicine. Embryos during pregnancy in first months of embryonic development go through the prehistorical development which lasted four billion years. And even embryos of animals go through this development. Here also belongs appropriate fossils. Some long-living people have opened in older age prehistoric stem cells and from them may grow prehistoric organs that can overgrow original organs. In Indian culture is a lot of individuals who have prehistoric organs already in young age and carry a possibility of developing paranormal abilities, mainly produce powerful direct current and other similar activities.
Evolutionary medicine talks about 200 dwarfed structures in the human body and all could be activated and open by meditation and we force them to opening because of longevity, but also because of growing extraordinary paranormal abilities. Therefore this kind of reiki is designed precisely to dwarfed structures in the body due to longevity and obtaining paranormal abilities.
How to get into Reiki system consistently by Mikao Usui oracular techniques? Reiki system works with bioenergy from mitochondrial mini powers within cells. And also produces a unique bio organic particles for the formation of atoms and elements. And they form organelle and the cell itself. Reiki system is able to move bio particles from living organisms to other living organisms and so adjust the activity of some neurons in the human body.
But Reiki system also needs to diagnose and perceive what is happening in Reiki interventions and Reiki platform needs to obtain a basis for oracular performances to living and inanimate objects. So we used oracular techniques to search and we finally found something like a Luopan compass created from meteorites. One is located in the tomb of a Chinese monarch. It is necessary to find it. And then we have to find individual who actively worked with him. Today he is dead but over his grave is found specific character as a classic translucent plate described by limpid shortcuts for system feng shui. We were searching for this Reiki symbol over so-called tortoiseshell graves which are funeral crypts in the shape of a turtle shell. We remotely connected into such turtle graves and by oracular techniques perceived Reiki characters over them and we copied these characters into aura. And so we got to the base of using oracle techniques in Reiki. We consider Reiki compass as the collection of oracular and astrological techniques on the principle of meteoritic Luopan. Of course, that the basis for Reiki compass – as we now call it, is developed third eye in the brain with the fact that you activate dwarfed prehistoric stem cells.
We have succeeded in gain access to Reiki compass which will be further developed in the classical oracular application techniques under sustained tension in barrels by surrounded muscles. This includes also dowser skills.

I was born on 4th of January 1960 in Slovakia, Europe.
When I was 5 years old I fought for life several months and my grandmother who was herbalist and healer was helping me. She saved my life.
I did not attend the school very often because I still had problems with lungs.
But protestant pastor from neighborhood gave me basic education.
My grandmother loved going to the church but I better loved Indian figures.
My grandmother liked company of weirdos and homeless people. She loved to take care about them and I was there.
I have always loved to grow plants, picked up herbs and I was environmental activist.
I have decided to become polymath, educated in all natural, technical and spiritual sciences. I still continue in this trend of highly and integrally educated personality up to this day.
Especially, I dedicate to all disciplines within medicine and I have different approaches to study them. I have decided to begin the path as healer and therapist.
I used to pick up herbs, mushrooms, leafs and yields from trees and bushes. I made homeopathic, herbal teas, different types of homemade herbal creams and tinctures.
Nowadays I practice distance healing without the presence of treated person.
I also practice special exercises called basic physiological exercises and it is training of special movements for persons in higher age. I manage the group of people in age over 60 who regularly train such exercises.
I care about issue of sleeping, hypnosis, autohypnosis and suggestions applied in distance Reiki without presence of the patient.
I have practiced active distance healing since 2013 and in this area I take care about 100-120 people who are under my long lasting care.
I also actively practice SRT system and I help related community of enthusiasts for SRT therapies.
I have created system of clairvoyance performances in the area of health, psychology and relationships. I execute such performances by clairvoyance techniques on distance without the person who is treated. I use clairvoyance techniques to perform medical, psychological and psychiatric tests. I have connected such practices with medical laboratory values.
I am also interested in mysticism applied into religious systems. I have strong interest in everything what could be built during the life and what could be transformed into the world of dead memories. This is the issue of the Holy Sepulchre.
My specialty is interest in building artificial intelligence in robotics. I focus on building bio intelligence in human body and especially in the cerebellum, linked to the Kabbalah.

I have been working in spiritual sphere over 20 years. I have realized research in different areas of spirituality over whole world. I am objectively engaged to spirituality and esoterism. I went through spiritual world by clairvoyance techniques and many videos helped me to go through different forms of spiritual meditations from prehistory to nowadays forms of meditation. In year 2014 I decided to implement practical esoterism and spirituality on Reiki platform. I had feeling and logically emerged that this will be good thing. I wanted to publish my articles in English language. Circumstances helped me that one girl with excellent English knowledge came meditate to me. My desire was to get my articles translated by the person who actively meditate. And it has become small miracle and we have translation which is a great thing.
We gradually test individual Reiki systems and we make a record of them.
The record is processed, translated to English and posted on this site. I hope that our articles will bring you joy and new insights.
Here are my main home pages in Slovak language:

Read Reiki Distant AttunementClose Reiki Distant Attunement
Sasa Pueblo
I also do Reiki attunement and consecration to all degrees. I do attunement to different kinds of Reiki. I specialize mainly in distant Reiki attunements and their gradation. Distant consecrations require testing and verification. By testing I examine the quality of distant attunement. It is good to repeat distant attunements several times and so achieve stronger Reiki stabilization.
I do Reiki attunement which is free of charge. It is good to already have basic Reiki consecration classically in the presence of consecrated person and the initiator. Then my specialized Reiki attunement is more effective.
As I have studied and trained the history of Reiki, I know how to return to original attunement of disappeared Tiandai Reiki school.
I can test you whether your Reiki attunement has been done correctly and I am able suitably adjust it for you.
You can email me via: email@example.com

I live in Notheren Georgia in a heavily wooded area, about 130 acres in all. Also it's completely and utter the best place for Der Ritter/ Slenderman. I'll tell you that I have seen him before, and I haven had any trouble...Yet. But here how it happened. I was in my room reading some information on slenderman, when I got the stragest feeling I was being watched. I felt this being pressing down on me, I got up and padded to my window. Over looking the front lawn and a saw mill that was used to make the house that I live in now, I saw him. Der Ritter him self in the flesh looking towards me his blank face turned upwards at my window. I stared t him my face tight and calm. I wasn't scared, because I knew he could mostly sense the fear that I could send to him if I got scared. I looked straight at him and said calmly and comandingly," you're not welcome here Der Ritter." and raised my hand in a wave, to my surprise he raised his hand back to me. And the dissappeared. Thats my only experience with him. I haven't Had any problems with forgetting things or odd behavior. But sometimes I get that strange feeling again pressing down on me. Honestly I hate Der Ritter even though he fascinates me. I know you're out there Zeke I know you need help. I'm here to offer my support, and trust for slender mans torture to be over. May you find your way home and finally be able to get rid of Slenderman.Anonymoushttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5388781176880466892.post-48291700156860750392011-03-27T14:13:10.079-07:002011-03-27T14:13:10.079-07:00This is some of the best I've read.

Kinetic is one of the leading bike trainer brands in the industry. The Kinetic Road Machine indoor bike trainer stands apart from other fluid trainer brands in its field because of its outstanding user convenience, reliability and smart capabilities.
There is a lot to love about the Kinetic Road Machine. One of the best things about this fluid trainer is the low noise level. You can easily watch your smart phone, tablet or TV while exercising and not worry about bothering others with the sound. Because it's a fluid trainer, it also has a much more realistic, road-like feel than most magnet and wind trainers.
Kinetic has a wide range of products that are compatible with smart devices. Typically for Kinetic, the higher the price, the more smart bells and virtual whistles you'll receive. While the Kinetic Road Machine is on the low-end of Kinetic's products, it can still be adapted to have smart functions. If you purchase and install the Kinetic inRide Watt Meter to the Road Machine, you can access the Kinetic Fit power training app to monitor and create workouts on your smart device.
Another nice thing about the Kinetic Road Machine is that it can work with a wide range of bike types. The trainer's frame fits 22-inch to 29-inch bike wheels. It is compatible with quick release bikes, but it can also be adapted to thru-axle bikes by using the Kinetic Traxle, which must be purchased separately. Unlike the magnetic trainers which need to be adjusted manually, fluid trainers provide progressive resistance, which means that resistance will build as your cadence increases.
This bicycle trainer measures 16 x 22.4 x 32 inches and weighs 28 pounds, making it one of the heaviest trainers on our list. Being heavy is not necessarily a bad quality, as it helps ensure stability. However, storing and traveling with the Kinetic Road Machine will be more difficult than it would be with some other trainers.
Perhaps the best testament to this trainer's durability is its lifetime warranty. In the past, fluid trainers were known for leaking. Kinetic has improved its products and guarantees that this model is 100-percent leak-proof. It can be folded in half for convenient storage and travel. All of Kinetic's trainers are tested for quality before getting shipped off, so you will likely find tire marks on the cylinder.
If you want to put just a bit more money into your purchase, Kinetic offers similar trainers that have a slightly different frame and come equipped with an inRide sensor for wireless workouts that correspond with the Kinetic inRide app. They also have Bluetooth compatibility for even more smart options and programs. We are impressed with the Kinetic Road Machine. It is a simple machine that offers durability, user convenience, and versatility, and it can also be upgraded to be compatible with training apps.

Leader of the group Formal Methods: Frank de Boer.
In the Formal Methods group, our research involves finding solutions to highly pragmatic real-world problems by reducing their complexity through the elegance and beauty of mathematics. We formulate problems to reveal their complexity and make them amenable to elegant solutions.
Our work yields technological foundations that underpin software engineering and service-oriented computing. With everything we do, we aim to add stability and reliability to those foundations and so to the third-party applications built on them. In this way, we cut the costs of technological failure for business and society and make life easier for programmers, developers and ultimately users.
Our no-nonsense approach relies on the smooth transfer of knowledge between senior and junior researchers, reaching back through our rich history as one of CWI's original research groups. Our work is grounded in our collaborations with partners in business and industry.
CWI introduces new design methodology for reliable and trustworthy software
To make the development process of software quick, efficient, reliable and automated, researcher Vlad-Nicolae Şerbănescu (CWI and LIACS) studied how to unify modelling and programming languages for reliable and trustworthy software.
Better parallel programming with help of ABS language
Current programming languages cannot use the full potential power of manycore chips. Keyvan Azadbakht studied the formal programming language ABS and extended the programming model and analysis techniques. He defended his PhD thesis on 11 December.
Grant for CWI to improve Next Generation Internet
NLnet Foundation awarded CWI with a grant to develop a replacement for a decades-old application programming technique for communication on the internet. This might result in an alternative to deep packet inspection for network operators that better protects privacy for users.
Symposium celebrating life and achievements of Farhad Arbab
On Friday 25 May 2018 CWI organizes a farewell symposium on the occasion of the retirement of Farhad Arbab, 'It's All About Coordination'. Farhad Arbab has been a researcher at CWI for 28 years and a professor at Leiden University since 2004. He is most known for his work on coordination languages in software engineering, particularly Reo, and in concurrency and software composition.

With "You and Me" young people counterbalance the nationalistic, neo-liberal & quota-driven crisis rhetorics that set the peoples of the North and South against each other. The film project wants to free the debate on European solidarity from mistrust and stereotypes and to unite the youth.
Germany, Greece, Spain
Read the newspaper headlines, watch the most viewed videos, listen to the interviews and comments in the media - you will get a picture of what seems to drive Europe today: lazy Spaniards, Varoufakis' middle finger, rounds of ministers fighting for their national interests, finger pointing from South to North and vice versa, and a confused debate on the causes of and answers to the crisis. This, combined with high youth unemployment, strong tendencies towards extremism among young people, burdening debt on future generations and growing resentments between North and South shows how vulnerable the European project is. You and Me wants to break this vicious circle and contribute with an alternative narrative of Europe. It empowers the unheard to raise their voice and build their own Europe.
To reach the hearts & minds of nine youngsters and with this those of thousands other young people. "You and Me" wants to empower youth to develop filming and dialogue skills, to dig themselves out of the mud of stereotypes, obscure facts and lack of perspective. The project is successful firstly, if the nine youngsters are able to develop empathy, understanding each other's perspective, hopes and life plans and building a common ground for a shared future in Europe. Secondly, if these youngsters are empowered to act as multiplicators and role models in their social environment (family, school, friends). Lastly, if the film itself gets spread over social media and potentially recognised by traditional media (ARTE, Channel 4) or festivals, thus providing an alternative narrative for Europe.
-Find partners in project countries who will help identify young people (18-22) to create the film; build three mixed groups (one Greek, German, Spanish person per group)
-Develop and deliver a two-day training to the groups on intercultural awareness, filmmaking, interview techniques & storytelling to empower them to create the film independently
-Build three support teams for the groups with two social workers, a filmmaker and a project coordinator to go on a 3-day filming journey and collect stories of young people to be combined into a European story
-Produce a learning journal and an online diary for the self-empowerment and reflections of the groups
-Build and use on- and offline channels for the dissemination of the film and produce a video-toolkit on how to run such a project

How it works
Many customers are searching for "Loanpickupcom Reviews" promo code. If you have looked at your checking account, and you have realized that you are going to be short for all of the bills that you will need to pay, you will have to find a way to come up with a couple thousand dollars perhaps, and this is not always the easiest thing to accomplish. Some people can contact a family member that can help them out, and if you can, this is a great benefit. For those that do not have family or friends that can help in this short-term situation, you will more than likely have to work with a payday loan company. One of the top lenders is www.Loan Pick Up.com payday advance loans, a business that is available online. Let's look at how you can quickly find them, submit your application, and then get the money that you need so that your bills will be paid on time this month after all. You can apply with Loanpickupcom Reviews approval code.
Loanpickupcom Reviews, How Payday Cash Loans Typically Work
These companies are very similar to a normal bank. The main difference is simply because they will bring you money in a single day. A number of them will take two days, but this really is still much quicker than you might ever expect a lending institution to become. The approval process is really what takes the longest, and once you submit the application, some individuals have had results in just a couple of hours. The amount that you simply request can play a huge role inside your approval or denial, something that we are going to discuss next.
What Amount Of Cash Do You Want?
The amount of money you need will vary depending on the quantity of bills that you may have developing. For instance, you may have to use a few hundred dollars to paying electricity bill, or perhaps a phone bill, each of which may be in danger being switched off. The fees that you just will probably pay to set everything to normal could total several hundred dollars, sometimes more than the cost of a short-term loan. This is exactly what motivates people to talk to these businesses that will provide this sort of service, and also by requesting only what you require, you happen to be increasing your odds of getting use of these funds.
Where To Submit The Application
Some of these companies will likely be located in your city, perhaps just down the block from which you work, or possibly your geographical area. In the event you prefer talking to an actual person, there will be a representative at the office where you could make inquiries, plus they may help you with all the application. The application process is far more efficient when you try this online, and this will be submitted digitally to the people that can approve it or perhaps not. The bottom line is to request less than you will have on your next paycheck that will allow them to have the confidence to lend the money since they will be aware of you will probably have the financial methods to pay them back. Remember, you're not just making payment on the loan off, but also the interest that might be do, and thus make an effort to borrow money based on these amounts. Following the application is submitted, it takes 12 hours, perhaps a little more, and you then should hear something the next day.
The goal of employing a company like Loan Pick Up.com payday advance is to make certain that you will be not ruining your credit by being late with a payment. Additionally, you need to make use of them in order to avoid any charges which may arise should you be incapable of pay your bill causing what you should be turned off. These organizations do charge a higher interest rate, a thing that most people know, but it is actually less oftentimes than the fee for reinstating services and paying penalties which typically accompany missing a payment on some types of bills. That's why people gravitate toward these lenders which are considerably more efficient at lending money than the usual typical bank or lending institution, and why they already have become very popular through the years. Proceed to find the corporation online, submit your application, and then in one day, perhaps less, you will actually have the money that you require. Loanpickupcom Reviews

Perhaps it began when you picked up a copy of Kafka's The Metamorphosis. Or maybe you became fascinated after learning about the political fallout from the break-up of Yugoslavia. Or maybe you just have an insatiable appetite for pierogis. Whatever the reason, you're eager and anxious to gain deeper insight into the Slavic peoples and cultures (and hence you're a great candidate for this major).
As a Slavic studies major, you'll find that your coursework will be quite interdisciplinary. Certainly, you'll take classes in everything from religion and philosophy to political science, economics and literature. You'll explore topics as diverse as the expansion of the Soviet state, human rights issues in Bosnia and even Polish folk dancing. The majority of programs also require their students to become proficient in a regional language, be it Russian, Polish, Czech, Ukrainian, Bosnian/Serbian/Croatian, etc. Generally speaking, most classes will be reading and writing intensive. Finally, a majority of Slavic studies majors spend some time studying abroad.
Should you choose to major in Slavic studies, you'll discover it's important to be open to different cultures and ways of thinking. You will also find it beneficial to have a good ear for languages and strong communication skills in general. In addition, you should be great at analyzing and synthesizing information. And you should enjoy indulging in the occasional bowl of borscht!
As a Slavic studies major, you'll have the opportunity to explore a wide range of topics including: Tolstoy and Dostoevsky, Gender in Communist and Post-Communist Societies, Introduction to Eurasian History: From the Mongols to the Soviets, Elementary Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, Modern Armenian, Introduction to Slavic Linguistics, Milan Kundera, Advanced Russian Through Media, The Soviet Visual Experience and Balkan Folklore.
Slavic studies majors are typically curious about other languages, cultures and the way they develop. Therefore, not surprisingly, they might also be interested in studying religion/theology, philosophy, history, international relations, political science, economics, Asian studies, Latin American studies, American studies, African studies, classics, geography, anthropology and sociology.
All right – we'll admit it. Slavic studies does not necessarily prepare you for any specific career track. However, therein lies the beauty. The skills you'll both acquire and hone are applicable to a variety of fields and professional pursuits. Indeed, if you do a little digging, you'll find fellow majors in numerous industries. To begin, it's fairly common for graduates to become translators or interpreters. Journalism is another popular route with majors often focusing on Eastern European stories/beats/bureaus. Many graduates, in search of adventure, seek positions with non-profits and NGOs, working and volunteering in Eastern Europe. International business is also a great path, with a handful of majors focusing on import/export. Additionally, government jobs are widely held with students becoming everything from immigration and customs officials to foreign service officers, dignitaries and diplomats. Still others might be found in such diverse fields as hospitality, consulting, social work and education. Truly you can start with Slavic studies and (perhaps ironically) end up virtually anywhere!

Think about the eCommerce innovations of the last fifteen years that have had the most impact: one-click checkouts, single-page checkouts, social media eCommerce, eCommerce chatbots, voice ordering with smart speakers like Amazon's Echo.
What do they have common? It's not that they use hyped new technologies or introduce radically original shopping paradigms, although many do. Instead, innovations in eCommerce are all about making it easier to buy.
Friction is a jargon word that means "frustrating to use." It represents the ways in which an eCommerce store can make a shopping trip less pleasant than it could be.
A store with a lot of friction is frustrating for shoppers to interact with. Friction is correlated with reduced revenue. To state the obvious, customers are less likely to complete a purchase if you present them with a challenging experience or ask too much of them.
But let's talk
specifics. What effects can eCommerce merchants expect to observe on a
high-friction store?
Reduced sales. The ultimate consequence of high-friction stores is that people buy less. The amount of friction they're willing to put up with is a function of the desirability of the product. For a highly desirable product — an in-demand pair of sneakers, for instance — shoppers are prepared to put up with a lot of hassle.
The same is true of products that are rare. But for the normally desirable and available products that many retailers sell, friction kills the desire to buy. Shoppers know they can buy an alternative or shop elsewhere. They're also less amenable to cross-selling and up-selling.
Fewer return customers. Return customers are more cost-effective than new customers, who represent a considerable marketing investment. It has been shown that stores with more return customers are more profitable.
Customer loyalty makes a real difference to the bottom line. But a high-friction store with a poor user experience cannot expect customers to be loyal. The marketing team may be able to get customers to the store, but one bad experience can dissuade them from returning in the future.
Smaller carts. A fast and well-designed eCommerce store is a pleasure to use. A pleasant shopping experience encourages users to browse, to follow suggested product recommendations, and to engage with the site.
In contrast, a frustrating shopping experience will, at best, encourage shoppers to finish their session as quickly as possible. They buy only what they need and are closed to serendipitous encounters with compelling products they didn't know they wanted — and those impulse buys are what makes for a healthy eCommerce bottom line.
Friction On eCommerce Stores
We've discussed the
effects of friction. They can be summed up in a couple of words: less money.
Now let's turn to the causes of eCommerce friction and some possible solutions.
Poor performance is probably the leading cause of eCommerce friction, especially for shoppers using mobile devices. Poor performance manifests itself in slow-loading pages and excessive latency on interactive elements, including the shopping cart and checkout interface. Shoppers have become less tolerant of slow stores over time. Large online retailers, including Amazon, have invested heavily in performance, creating fast and responsive experiences. Smaller stores that don't provide an equivalent experience are at a disadvantage.
Web performance is a
complex topic, but tackling the low-hanging fruit should be a priority.
- Web hosting. An eCommerce store with
inadequate disk space, bandwidth, memory, and processing power is slow under
load. If your store is slow, consider upgrading to a more powerful hosting solution
or migrating to a more capable hosting provider.
- Reduce page weight. Larger pages take longer to
download. Reduce page weight by optimizing images and removing unnecessary
JavaScript. Use performance testing tools such as GTMetrix and
Google PageSpeed Insights to reveal opportunities for optimization.
- Implement caching. Caching reduces the load on
your eCommerce store by serving pre-generated content were possible. All
leading eCommerce applications, including Magento and WooCommerce, include
caching and can take advantage of advanced caching extensions.
- Use a content distribution network (CDN). A content
distribution network uploads a store's static assets, including images and
scripts, to servers around the world. The assets are then served from the
nearest CDN server to the shopper, reducing latency and the load on a store's
People enjoy
shopping, but no one enjoys the process of checking out when it involves
filling in multi-page forms. Convoluted checkout processes cause abandoned
carts and discourage first-time visitors from returning.
- Shorter is better. With the expiry of Amazon's
one-click patent, every eCommerce store can offer one-click checkouts for
logged-in users. Plugins exist for most eCommerce applications, including WooCommerce, and
Magento provides the built-in Instant Purchase
- Social logins can also reduce the amount of
time it takes for shoppers to complete their purchase. Social logins leverage
single sign-on systems from Google, Facebook, and others to provide a quick and
easy registration and authentication process. As a bonus, they also provide
retailers with rich information about their customers.
In addition to refining on-site checkouts, retailers might also consider off-site sales strategies, including sales via social media networks and instant chat, both of which can reduce the complexity of sales interactions.
Quality Copy and Images
If you think of your store as a sales funnel, a journey with the checkout as its destination, on-page content is responsible for moving shoppers to the next stage of that journey. Shoppers need relevant and information-rich images, video, and sales copy to make informed decisions. Poor quality content is confusing. It creates uncertainty. An uncertain shopper is less likely to make a purchase.
Many eCommerce retailers I have spoken to see on-page content as an afterthought. They prioritize offsite marketing content and design, neglecting on-page content. That's a mistake. Site content can make an enormous difference to a store's conversion rate.
There is no simple solution for creating world-class sales content. If you don't have a flair for writing, hire someone who does. A professional copywriter can bring sales

The Albert R. Broccoli and Dana Broccoli Foundation is donating $1.4 million to The Cinema & Television Benevolent Fund (CTBF) to mark the centenary of the birth of Albert R. Broccoli.
Barbara Broccoli said 'We are pleased to continue in Cubby and Dana's tradition. Cubby was a former Governor and big supporter of the CTBF and in recent years EON Productions' James Bond premieres of Die Another Day and Casino Royale have raised substantial funds for the charity through The Royal Film Performances.'
In honour of the donation to the UK trade charity for film, cinema and commercial television, a building at the CTBF's industry retirement village Glebelands will be named the Broccoli Cloisters.
CTBF Chief Executive, Peter Hore said 'We are truly grateful to Michael G. Wilson, Barbara Broccoli and The Broccoli Foundation for this most generous donation. This will go a long way in helping the CTBF continue supporting industry employees and their families who are most in need. I think it is fitting that we permanently honour this legacy of support and donation with the dedication of our building at Glebelands to 'The Broccoli Cloisters'.
An official ceremony will take place at Glebelands on Monday 6 April, 2009. The ceremony will be attended by the donors Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, trustees of the CTBF and senior film industry members. Residents and staff at Glebelands retirement village will also attend.

Professor Yoolip's most dangerous invention is probably the 8-Bit Game Cartridge-to-Reality generator, which is capable of reading any game cartridge from that '80s and turn the world contained within to reality. When he first tried this invention, it unleashed dragons, demons, and countless other monsters into the world... and a lot of heroes that wouldn't do anything unless told specifically where to go.
Among these armored knights, boys in tights, and foreign princes, Yoolip found what appeared to be an 8-Bit version of himself... just sitting there, waiting for someone to take control of his destiny.
Realising he had just become the hero to a dozen different games at the same time, Yoolip took matters into his own hands and modified his invention to allow him to take control of his 8-Bit counterpart. Now he and his Robo Dinos are ready for some old school action!
This DLC contains a custom skin for Professor M. Yoolip in Awesomenauts. The 8-Bit Yoolip skin comes with a unique character theme, killing spree theme, a unique voiceover, and special in-game audio effects for his abilities.

If you're new to the world of life insurance, or you're simply young and healthy, you may never think about the chance that your coverage could be denied. Unfortunately, life insurance companies can and do deny coverage for many reasons.
Why You Could Have Expensive Life Insurance
Keep these in mind as you're shopping for life insurance; securing good coverage now could save you from a devastating string of denials in the future or at the very least high rates.
A Personal History of Cancer
Cancer survivors may deserve a gold medal for their bravery and fortitude, but life insurance companies often see the illness as a thick black mark on their records. It's not uncommon for companies to immediately deny any applicant who has had cancer.
Some companies, however, will consider cancer survivors who have been in remission for at least twelve months. Depending on the type of cancer, as well as the stage and grade, you may face increased rates or a decline for coverage.
Deceased Parents
If your parents died young as a result of poor health, this raises a red flag for the insurance company. If one or both of your parents were ill at an early age – usually under 65, you're at a higher risk of suffering similarly. Death from old age won't count against you, but the early death of a parent will usually bar you from getting the preferred rates for coverage.
According to Research America, over a third of the adults in America are overweight. Obesity is officially defined as a body fat of 32% or more for women and 25% or more for men. While life insurance companies may accept applicants on the lower end of the scale, extreme obesity is typically grounds for denial.
This is due to the fact that obesity links closely to conditions such as diabetes and heart disease.
High Blood Pressure
The CDC reports that one in three American adults has high blood pressure. High blood pressure is closely linked to heart attacks, strokes, and chronic heart failure. Less than half of all people who suffer from high blood pressure have their blood pressure under control.
Nearly a third of American adults have prehypertension which can lead to high blood pressure. Get screened for prehypertension and take action to lower your blood pressure early to avoid developing this condition.
High Cholesterol
Approximately one in six Americans suffer from high cholesterol. You can check your levels with a simple blood test. This condition is often preventable with a healthy diet and regular exercise. While high cholesterol won't typically be a decline, your rates for life insurance will likely be higher if your cholesterol levels aren't well controlled. On the other hand, high cholesterol combined with other health conditions could result in a decline.
Recent Hospitalization
Applicants who were recently hospitalized are more likely to get postponed for life insurance than those who've stayed healthy and injury-free. If you've just gotten out of the hospital for a health issue like a heart attack or stroke, an insurance company may want to wait at least 6 months to see if you've made a full recovery before approving you.
Pre-existing Health Problems
Heart disease, diabetes, epilepsy, and other pre-existing conditions will either result in an increased rate or a decline. The end result will be based on treatment, how long you have had the condition, and how well controlled it is.
Since some conditions, like type 2 diabetes, are often preventable, it's important to think ahead about how your health choices today can impact your future. Get screened for pre-diabetes and other health conditions regularly if you're at risk, and talk to your doctor about ways you can stay healthy.
Tobacco and Alcohol Use
Tobacco and excessive alcohol use create big stains on your life insurance application. Alcohol has both immediate and long-term risks. In the short-term, you can suffer from alcohol poisoning, injury, and risky behaviors while you're intoxicated. Long-term alcohol use leads to neurological, psychiatric, and cardiovascular problems as well as many liver diseases.
Smoking causes one in five deaths in America and can cause cancer and heart disease. Since these unhealthy habits are completely preventable, changing your lifestyle will result in much better life insurance rates.
Drug Use
Your life insurance company will want to know about any kind of drug use, both legal and illegal. Illegal drug use is an obvious reason for denial. Unfortunately, the regular use of legal medications may harm your case as well, as this is typically a sign of an underlying medical condition that requires regular treatment.
While most illegal drug use will cause a decline, many life insurance companies will approve you for marijuana use – although you will pay higher rates for coverage.
Dangerous Hobbies
If you spend weekends rock climbing or skydiving, life insurance companies are more hesitant to cover you. If accepted, you'll likely pay more for coverage. While you may find these activities a fun way to keep active and stay fit, your insurance provider will see the potential for serious injury.
Dangerous activities that your life insurance provider will likely frown upon including scuba diving, hot air ballooning, bungee jumping, aviation, and racing. How often you participate in these activities will be a factor in determining whether or not you pay a higher rate – for example, scuba diving just once or twice a year will typically not cause a higher rate for coverage.
Foreign Travel
This one may come as a surprise, but travel outside the country on a frequent basis to countries considered high risk may result in a decline for life insurance coverage. Exotic travel comes with potential risks including disease and injury. Life insurance companies classify countries as A, B, C, or D destinations.
Travel to A level countries carries minimal risk while visiting D countries is more dangerous. You need to report any plans for future travel on your insurance application, both for pleasure and for work.
Traffic Violations
Safe drivers have a better chance of getting good life insurance coverage. If your driving record is full of traffic violations and accidents, your insurance provider will immediately see the high potential for more accidents in the future.
If you have several moving violations within the past five years, you will likely not qualify for the best rates. A DUI will lead to higher rates as well, and more than 2 DUIs in the past 10 years will lead to a decline.
Dishonest Application Information
Your application will ask if you've applied for life insurance before and if you've ever been denied. If you have, it's crucial that you fess up and admit it since the insurance company can see if you have recently applied for coverage and will ask about it if not mentioned in the application.
Be honest about all other points on your application as well. Don't guess on measurable questions such as your height and weight. You'll have to submit to a physical examination anyway.

Product Overview
- Changing a tyre is hard enough without having to worry about damaging the wheel. You certainly dont want to ding or scratch your super high-dollar anodized wheels. Traditional wheel protectors, while a necessary evil, are a pain to use. They are hard to keep in place, difficult to manipulate from one position to another, and they tend to get pulled inside the tyre at the end of the job leaving you struggling to fish them out before airing up the tyre.
- The new patented Motion Pro RimShield will make you want to throw your old rim protectors away. The RimShield provides excellent protection to the rim of the wheel and features a large flat area that extends towards the hub of the wheel to protect the spokes and inner part of the wheel, also providing a working platform for your tire irons. It features raised ridges on either side of the tool which hold the bead of the tire up, making it much easier to insert tire irons under the lip of the tyre. The extension part of the RimShield also has two finger holes to make repositioning fast and easy and allows the RimShield to be easily removed at the end of the installation process.
- Made from a durable plastic composite
- Sold in pairs
