Who else has been trough this kind of situation as well?
You are rapidly sneaking through the area after baggage claim, because too many fake taxi drivers and tour operators are hovering around there and thus the only thing you want it to step outside the building as soon as possible.
Finally arrived you jump into the next available taxi (in case it's a cheap country) or in a bus, maybe there even is a airport express. But unfortunately you don't have any local currency on you,which leads to one of those two scenarios. The taxi driver is happy to take take your Euros or Dollars, but is going to give you an exchange rate which is up to 20 % worse than the current rate. "I am not a bank", this statement of a driver in Prague many years ago is remaining within my ear until today. When using bus or train you might even be able to pay by card. Within Europe this is not an issue using the Mastro functionality, but outside usually only credit cards are accepted. My own cards work with a surcharge of 1,5 % which in the long run makes kind of a large sum to loose. Furthermore I don't really like using my credit cards abroad, as I already experience several strange charges which in the end were fraud.
Same goes for withdrawing money via credit card, which at least for me also has been kind of a taboo because the typical charge is 4-5 %. Withdrawing via Maestro card usually is charged with a one-time fee of 5 €. As you never know how much cash exactly you need, there might be several withdrawals necessary within one country. I experienced most annoyance in those countries, where you once has to pay the airport fee in cash when I already spent my last cash on the taxi ride.
As you are clever you also did not get any foreign currency at home, as you are good at match and have not become a victim of the cutthroat exchange rates of your local banks. I don't want to give bad reference on all banks, but regarding purchase and even worse repurchase of foreign currency they all are going to rip you off. My calculations conclude a 10-15 % difference in comparison with the original exchange rate when withdrawing money at an ATM abroad. if you want to exchange your cash at your airport of origin or the the destination airport or in a local bureau de change you either also get a bad rate or you have to pay commission.
By random in 2006 my mother who is a financial adviser recommended me to open an account with DKB, which all of our family is using ever since that time. I also recommend this bank here because in my opinion there is no other German bank (I am quite loyal) within Germany which has a better offer. You receive a VISA card free or charge which enables you to withdraw money WITHOUT ANY FEE worldwide (of course also in Germany) at each ATM, no matter what bank at the current official exchange rate. the offer also includes an account with included EC card (Maestro) also for free. This is absolutely not common anymore nowadays!
In case you also would like avoid any charges for money withdraw and save all of your hardly earned travel money you can check out the offer of DKB in details and if you like it open a bank account there right away.

Wikiquote is one of a family of wiki-based projects run by the Wikimedia Foundation, running on MediaWiki software. Based on an idea by Daniel Alston and implemented by Brion Vibber, the goal of the project is to produce collaboratively a vast reference of quotations from prominent people, books, films and proverbs, and to give details about them. Though there are many online collections of quotations, Wikiquote is distinguished by being among the few that provide an opportunity for visitors to contribute.[2] Wikiquote pages are cross-linked to articles about the notable personalities on Wikipedia.[3]
Initially, the project was created solely in English. However, in July 2004, additional languages were added.

Multilingual cooperation
In July 2004, about 70 subdomains were set up. As of January 1, 2010, twenty one versions each have more than 1,000 articles. The largest Wikiquote is the English project with over 17,500 articles, followed by Italian, Polish, German, and Portuguese with over 5,000 articles each, and by Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Bulgarian, Bosnian, Slovenian and Turkish with over 2,000 articles each. The French project, which was restarted in December 2006, has 1,899. Fifty-one language versions have 100 or more articles.[4]

Ack! What the heck is going on with Farrah Abraham's face? The Teen Mom OG star posted a video to social media over the weekend, and we're scared -- very scared. It has nothing to do with what she looks like, and everything to do with the weird beauty mask Farrah's wearing.
Check out the video that Farrah posted to Twitter on Sunday, July 12, and try not to be terrified of the amount of product on her face.
#BeautySecrets #lipaddict #Lipmask @BeautyKitchen #FOTCHED Beautify ð��·ð��� pic.twitter.com/mBwVoLcJQB— Farrah Abraham (@F1abraham) July 12, 2015
In addition to the light-blue facial mask, Farrah also appears to be wearing some sort of goldish stuff around her mouth, and some pads under her eyes. There also looks to be a black piece covering her nose, but I'm assuming she can still breathe, since she's telling the camera, "Being beautiful," as she tilts her face from left to right.
Whatever the heck this is -- it isn't beautiful. What's next -- is she going to show us what it looks like to have your eyebrows waxed?
I have no idea what's going on with this particular beauty regimen, but leave it to Farrah to share it with the world. That girl has no qualms sharing things that should be kept private, like her private parts, or now apparently her beauty rituals.
More from The Stir: Farrah Abraham's Daughter Pockets $100 Bills From Tooth Fairy -- Don't We Feel Cheap (PHOTO)
Hasn't Farrah ever learned the mysterious art of being a woman? It involves not posting totally bizarre videos like this online. What the heck does she even need it for? Girlfriend just turned 24 in May -- she has a while to go before she needs to worry about wrinkles. And even then, I doubt she'll skimp on the Botox.

- Infection control management of patients with suspected highly infectious diseases in emergency departments: data from a survey in 41 facilities in 14 European countries (2012)
- Background: In Emergency and Medical Admission Departments (EDs and MADs), prompt recognition and appropriate infection control management of patients with Highly Infectious Diseases (HIDs, e.g. Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers and SARS) are fundamental for avoiding nosocomial outbreaks. Methods: The EuroNHID (European Network for Highly Infectious Diseases) project collected data from 41 EDs and MADs in 14 European countries, located in the same facility as a national/regional referral centre for HIDs, using specifically developed checklists, during on-site visits from February to November 2009. Results: Isolation rooms were available in 34 facilities (82,9%): these rooms had anteroom in 19, dedicated entrance in 15, negative pressure in 17, and HEPA filtration of exhausting air in 12. Only 6 centres (14,6%) had isolation rooms with all characteristics. Personnel trained for the recognition of HIDs was available in 24 facilities; management protocols for HIDs were available in 35. Conclusions: Preparedness level for the safe and appropriate management of HIDs is partially adequate in the surveyed EDs and MADs.
- Diagnostic issues and capabilities in 48 isolation facilities in 16 European countries: data from EuroNHID surveys (2012)
- Background: Highly infectious diseases (HIDs) are defined as being transmissible from person to person, causing life-threatening illnesses and presenting a serious public health hazard. The sampling, handling and transport of specimens from patients with HIDs present specific bio-safety concerns. Findings The European Network for HID project aimed to record, in a cross-sectional study, the infection control capabilities of referral centers for HIDs across Europe and assesses the level of achievement to previously published guidelines. In this paper, we report the current diagnostic capabilities and bio-safety measures applied to diagnostic procedures in these referral centers. Overall, 48 isolation facilities in 16 European countries were evaluated. Although 81% of these referral centers are located near a biosafety level 3 laboratory, 11% and 31% of them still performed their microbiological and routine diagnostic analyses, respectively, without bio-safety measures. Conclusions: The discrepancies among the referral centers surveyed between the level of practices and the European Network of Infectious Diseases (EUNID) recommendations have multiple reasons of which the interest of the individuals in charge and the investment they put in preparedness to emerging outbreaks. Despite the fact that the less prepared centers can improve by just updating their practice and policies any support to help them to achieve an acceptable level of biosecurity is welcome.

Former SABC chief operating officer Hlaudi Motsoeneng suffered another defeat on Wednesday when the Labour Court dismissed his application.
Motsoeneng had applied to the Labour Court to have his disciplinary hearings by the SABC collapsed.
Disciplinary committee chair Nazeem Cassim told News24 that the hearings would continue on Friday next week.
He said Motsoeneng's lawyers would be arguing in opposition to the charges laid by the SABC against Motsoeneng.
Last week the SABC argued that Motsoeneng's behaviour warranted immediate termination.
He faces charges of breaching the terms of his suspension following a media briefing he held on April 19.
Disciplinary hearing
Motsoeneng's lawyers had last week argued that parallel hearings by the public broadcaster against their client were unfair.
Motsoeneng had also applied to have Cassim recused as the chair of the hearing, opting for a mutually agreed chairperson with the SABC.
Andy Bester, for Motsoeneng, had also wanted a postponement pending his client's appeal against the Western Cape High Court's ruling in December 2016.
Western Cape High Court Judge Owen Rogers ruled at the time that Motsoeneng could not work at the SABC in any capacity unless former Public Protector Thuli Madonsela's February 2014 report was set aside, or a new disciplinary hearing cleared him of wrongdoing.
Rogers said a previous disciplinary hearing, which cleared him of all charges, was "wholly inadequate".
Motsoeneng has suffered one court defeat after another.
In November 2015, the Western Cape High Court declared his appointment as COO irrational and illegal and set it aside. The court denied him leave to appeal.
In September 2016, the Supreme Court of Appeal also denied him leave to appeal.
During Wednesday's sitting, Thembeka Ngcukaitobi for the SABC said Motsoeneng maligned the broadcaster's newly-appointed board during his media briefing.
He had expressed disapproval of some of the new board members and justified his reasons for the SABC's 90% local content policy.
He was later charged with breaching the relationship of trust with the board and bringing the public broadcaster into disrepute.
Bester argued that acting CEO James Aguma authorised the briefing.
Ngcukaitobi said Aguma only gave permission for Motsoeneng to hold a briefing to correct a statement relating to the parliamentary ad hoc committee which looked into the fitness of the SABC board to hold office.
"He does not say: 'I gave you permission to malign the board.'"
Bester argued that it was unfair for Motsoeneng to be subjected to two disciplinary hearings. His second hearing relates to charges stemming from Madonsela's report, titled When Governance and Ethics Fail.
She found that he had lied about his qualifications when he applied to work at the SABC, purged staff, and increased his salary exorbitantly.

Real Madrid's Portuguese sensation Cristiano Ronaldo won his third Ballon d'Or, edging out Barcelona star Lionel Messi and Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer to Fifa's top player award on Monday night. It brings him one behind Messi and into joint-second with Dutch great Johan Cryuff, French maestro Michel Platini and Dutch hitman Marco van Basten.
As expected, the Internet went into overdrive following the win, but not so much to honour his feat, but to poke fun at the unusual way he celebrated his hat-trick of titles.
The forward, who scored an unbelievable 52 goals in 43 games for Madrid last year, let out a might "Si!" in his victory speech.
He explained: "The scream? The players know I always do that shout when I score a goal or when we win - it's our shout, from Real Madrid. I wasn't relaxed, I was very nervous.
"It was the same last year only I did not cry. You can't always cry! I was relying on winning after the year I had."
Well he may have opted for the more macho reaction this year, but the Internet still wasted little time in mocking the world's best footballer.

Question by someone: Is training for a 5k like getting in shape for soccer?
So im a sophomore and I have soccer tryouts in about 2 months. I heard that high school soccer players run about 2-3 miles per game, and a 5k is about 3 miles right? Theres way more "5k training plans" than "soccer training plans" online so could i just use a 5k plan with some strength training? and minus the sprinting for speed training? thanks in advance.
Best answer:
Answer by Jedi Sentinel
First, if you are in shape at all to play sports you should be able to run a 5k at any moment. There is not training for that since it is a easy run. You should for soccer concentrate on longer runs for your sport like 10k. You don't want to train for the exact amount of running you could do and be useless at the end of the game. You should be able to do double and stay at 100% the whole game. Sprints will be the best thing for you though, and defiantly most important. You should do a lot of HIIT with sprints.

Figures of the population resident in Spain, in each Autonomous Community, in each province and on each island (in the island provinces), broken down according to their basic demographic characteristics.
These data are used as population reference figures in all of INE's statistical operations (surveys, National Accounts, indicators, etc.) and are broadcast on the international level as Spain's official population data for all purposes.
Results are provided from 2012, linking with the Intercensal Population Estimates up to this date and with the results of successive population censuses carried out in Spain. This all makes up the historic series of Spain's population figures.
Resident population in Spain.
Population resident in Spain, in each Autonomous Community and in each province.
The statistics cover the whole of the national territory, and it is released for the national total, for each one of the Autonomous Communities and Cities, and for the provinces and islands (in the island provinces).
Data are provided referring to 1 July and 1 January of each year, starting in 2012.
These data link backwards to the Intercensal Population Estimates and successive population censuses carried out in Spain. This all makes up the historic series of Spain's population figures.
1 January 2012.
Number of persons with usual residence in Spain.
1 January and 1 July of each year.
Data referred to the period: SEMESTRAL 2019
The compilation and dissemination of the data are governed by the Statistical Law No. 12/1989 "Public Statistical Function" of May 9, 1989, and Law No. 4/1990 of June 29 on "National Budget of State for the year 1990" amended by Law No. 13/1996 "Fiscal, administrative and social measures" of December 30, 1996, makes compulsory all statistics included in the National Statistics Plan. The National Statistical Plan 2009-2012 was approved by the Royal Decree 1663/2008. It contains the statistics that must be developed in the four year period by the State General Administration's services or any other entity dependent on it. All statistics included in the National Statistics Plan are statistics for state purposes and are obligatory. The National Statistics Plan 2017-2020, approved by Royal Decree 410/2016, of 31 October, is the Plan currently implemented. This statistical operation has governmental purposes, and it is included in the National Statistics Plan 2017-2020. (Statistics of the State Administration).
Regulation 1260/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on European demographic statistics in relation to the provision of data on the resident population.
The Spanish version of this European Union regulation can be accessed at www.ine.es/normativa/leyes/UE/minine.htm#30321
The Population Figures are provided at the international level as Spain's official population data for all purposes.
No additional confidentiality measures to those which have already been indicated as standard in all INE operations have been adopted.
You can access all information regarding this operation at:
INEbase is the system the INE uses to store statistical information on the Internet. It contains all the information the INE produces in electronic formats. The primary organisation of the information follows the theme-based classification of the Inventory of Statistical Operations of the State General Administration . The basic unit of INEbase is the statistical operation, defined as the set of activities that lead to obtaining statistical results on a determined sector or subject based on the individually collected data. Also included in the scope of this definition are synthesis preparation.
The results and documentation relating to this operation can be found at:
This is a synthetic statistic that was prepared using aggregated results from various statistical sources. There is, therefore, no available microdata for this statistic.
This operation enables users' tailored requests for information not included in the results tables to be addressed, following a feasibility study in any case, by the INE.
Requests can be made through the Information Area:
This operation's methodology can be found at:
Fields 10.6 to 17.2 of this document are considered to be the user-oriented quality report for this operation.
Quality assurance framework for the INE statistics is based on the ESSCoP, the European Statistics Code of Practice made by EUROSTAT. The ESSCoP is made up of 16 principles, gathered in three areas: Institutional Environment, Processes and Products. Each principle is associated with some indicators which make possible to measure it. In order to evaluate quality, EUROSTAT provides different tools: the indicators mentioned above, Self-assessment based on the DESAP model, peer review, user satisfaction surveys and other proceedings for evaluation.
The Population Figures are prepared using all available information on recent demographic developments, with its results being completely consistent with those provided by official statistics on demographic events, particularly, the Vital Statistics, Migration Statistics, and Statistics on Acquisition of Spanish Citizenship of Residents released by INE.
Because Population Figures is a summary operation of various statistics (Migration Statistics, Vital Statistics and Statistics on Acquisition of Spanish Citizenship of Residents), its quality is dependent on the quality of these statistics, which include filtered and statistically-processed data.
In addition, coherence between all these statistics is guaranteed at the level of disaggregation published: sex, age, generation, citizenship and country of birth for the different territorial levels (national total, Autonomous Communities, provinces and islands).
Complete consistency is guaranteed between the Population Figures and figures provided by the 2011 Population and Housing Census and the Intercensal Population Estimates until 1 January 2012, as well as the figures on births, deaths, migrations and acquisitions of Spanish citizenship provided by the Vital Statistics, Migration Statistics and the Statistics on Acquisition of Spanish Citizenship of Residents, respectively.
The quality of this statistic is mainly derived from the quality of the statistics that it uses.
Together with the figures of successive population censuses carried out in Spain and those of the Intercensal Population Estimates that link these, these data make up the series of resident population figures in Spain, in each Autonomous Community and in each province. The first user of these is the national statistics system itself; more specifically, they are used by the INE as reference figures in all its statistical products (surveys, National Accounts, indicators, etc.). They are also available to all users who need to analyse the country's demographic development or, in turn, can be used for the production or analysis of other statistical information. In addition, these figures are used by international agencies as the official population of Spain for all purposes.
Municipal information is not available, the only municipal population data available is that of the resident population according to the Continuous Register Statistics.
The INE has carried out general user satisfaction surveys in 2007, 2010, 2013 and 2016 and it plans to continue doing so every three years. The purpose of these surveys is to find out what users think about the quality of the information of the INE statistics and the extent to which their needs of information are covered. In addition, additional surveys are carried out in order to acknowledge better other fields such as dissemination of the information, quality of some publications...
On the INE website, in its section Methods and Projects / Quality and Code of Practice / INE quality management / User surveys are available surveys conducted to date.(Click next link)
This operation provides all the information required by Regulation 1260/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on European demographic statistics regarding the resident population figures.
The available obligatory results rate is, therefore, 100% (R1=100%).
There are no available accuracy measures for the results of this operation. However, this operation is prepared from information provided by the statistics of constantly occurring demographic events, so the accuracy of their results depends on the accuracy of the information sources used.
The main sources of error are described in the methodology sheets of the statistics that contribute to the Population Figures: Migration Statistics, Vital Statistics and Statistics on Acquisition of Spanish Citizenship of Residents.
Not applicable to this statistical operation, as this is a synthetic statistic prepared using other statistical sources and not a sample survey.
As this is a synthetic operation, based on the statistical processing of data from register sources (see section 18.1), this statistical operation's non-sampling errors are those coming from the statistical operations used to obtain the Population Figures: Migration Statistics, Vital Statistics and Statistics on Acquisition of Spanish Citizenship of Residents.
These results are published biannually, referring to 1 January and 1 July of each year. Provisional results are released 6 months after the reference date of the data (TP1=6 months). Definitive data is released 12 months after the reference date (TP2= 12 months).
This operation is released within the deadline set out in INE's structural statistics calendar (TP3=0; it is disseminated with no delay).
The results are completely consistent between territories at all levels of disaggregation. In addition, they are calculated based on the definitions established in European Regulations 1260/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on European demographic statistics and 862/2007 on migration statistics and international protection and supported by the United Nations, which favours their international comparability.
The Population Figures constitute the definitive series of resident population figures in Spain since 2012. For each year, data are provided to 1 January and 1 July, starting with 1 July 2012. In addition, the series of results links backwards to the Intercensal Population Estimates to 1 January 2012, and with the successive Population Censuses carried out in Spain.
The length of the series of comparable data published on Population Figures is, currently, 14 reference dates. If we take into account the total series of data on the resident population in Spain since 1971, the length of the series is 97. If we add the figures from Population Censuses before 1970 to this, the length of the series would be greater than 100. That is:
The Population Figures are formed according to the concepts and definitions established by Eurostat in Regulation 1260/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on European demographic statistics, which favours their international comparability.
The Population Figures, or an advance estimate of these if required by the calendar, are used in the INE for the generalisation of statistical production from sample surveys (calculation of elevation factors and calibrated), as well as the calculation of the most diverse statistical indicators that require population data and the National Accounts. They are, therefore, consistent with the data provided by these sources.
There is another main information source on the resident population in Spain, which is that provided by the Official Population Figures of the Spanish Municipalities, but their different purpose (to provide information on the population at the municipal level) and nature (purely administrative) means that they have different methodologies and, therefore, different results.
The data are completely consistent between territories and demographically.
This is a synthetic statistic, prepared using other sources. Therefore, it does not require the collaboration of respondent units and does not generate data collection costs.
The estimated budgetary appropriation needed to finance this statistic, as provided for in the 2020 Annual Programme of the 2017-2020 National Statistics Plan is 133.80 thousand Euros.
The INE of Spain has a policy which regulates the basic aspects of statistical data revision, seeking to ensure process transparency and product quality. This policy is laid out in the document approved by the INE board of directors on 13 March of 2015, which is available on the INE website, in the section "Methods and projects/Quality and Code of Practice/INE's Quality management/INE's Revision policy" (link).
This general policy sets the criteria that the different type of revisions should follow: routine revision- it is the case of statistics whose production process includes regular revisions-; more extensive revision- when methodological or basic reference source changes take place-; and exceptional revision- for instance, when an error appears in a published statistic-.
The reviews are dependent on the availability of new data for the reference date. The definitive results released 12 months after the reference date review those previously released as provisional (6 months after the reference date).
The provisional data for this operation, released six months after the reference date, are reviewed using the corresponding definitive data 12 months after the reference date.
This is a synthetic statistical operation, prepared using results from different sources. Specifically, the following sources are used:
- 2001-2011 Intercensal Population Estimates, as a starting point, from the 2011 Population and Housing Census.
- Vital Statistics, from the statistical processing of data from the Civil Register.
- Migration Statistics, from the statistical processing of changes in the Municipal Register.
- Acquisitions of Spanish citizenship, from the statistical processing of data from the Civil Registry.
Data are processed taking the starting point as this operation's results referring to 1 January of the last available year (results of the 2001-2011 Intercensal Population Estimates to 1 January 2012 are the original starting point) and from a record of demographic events that have occurred since that date.
Multiple coherence analyses of the evolution of resident population figures and of these compared to data from different demographic statistical sources are carried out.
The starting point is taken to be this operation's results to 1 January of the last available year (the original starting point are the results of the 2001-2011 Intercensal Population Estimates to 1 January 2012) and records are kept of demographic events that have occurred from this date between individuals of each generation of each population group considered.
No adjustment is carried out on the results obtained.

Email Disclaimers are added to an email to try to limit a company's liability, but liability from what?
It has become increasingly common that when receiving emails from individuals at various types of organizations that there is an email disclaimer included at the bottom of the email. As electronic communications are becoming standard for business, confidential information is commonly sent via email. As this practice becomes more common, the likelihood of emails being sent by error increases. Email disclaimers are put in place to minimize a company's liability in these situations.
One of the greatest liabilities that email disclaimers attempt to manage, is risk posed by employees. When an employee sends information via email through a company email address, they are acting as a representative of that company. As a result, the company is liable for what is communicated in that email and to whom it is sent, even if in error.
There are numerous instances where the error of an employee can lead to liability for a company. For example, email communications allow individuals to make representations and enter into contracts via email.
Another significant risk is that an email may be sent to an unintended recipient. This can lead to very serious consequences, especially with respect to a breach of confidentiality of the information contained in the email and privacy of the company.
Email Disclaimer example …
An extreme example of how risk of liability may be a highly important issue is where a lawyer is sending an advice but does so to another person. However, a more practical and common example is sending information from any company email address that contains information in regards to a client. If this is sent to another client or third party, this is a potential liability for the company. This issue is common and could be potentially problematic in any type of industry.
Related to this is an email that contains internal company information that has been accidentally sent to another party. Many people at one time or other make careless mistakes in emailing the wrong person, who may have a similar email address as the intended recipient, or by attaching an incorrect file.
Including an email disclaimer is a way for companies to try to limit their liability from actions of their employees, whether incorrect or careless.
It is a good idea for companies and also individuals that send any type of advice or confidential information or those who use email as a standard means to disseminate information about the company to include an email disclaimer as a standard in all of their correspondence.
By including an email disclaimer on all electronic communications may assist in safeguarding a company against a number of mishaps that could occur and substantially reduce both a company and an individual's risk of liability.

| 15.8°C Dublin
Katie Taylor is back at work today in her new training base in the United States, just 36 hours after the most accomplished performance of her professional career.
The 2012 Olympic gold medallist methodically wore down 39-year-old Italian Monica Gentili before dropping her following a barrage of left hooks 90 seconds into the fifth round of their scheduled six-rounder at London's O2 Arena.
Though Gentili had won just six of her previous 12 bouts, she had previously only suffered one KO. But though she scrambled to her feet before being counted out, referee Robert Williams wisely stopped the fight.
Much improved
While she was a last-minute replacement after Taylor's original opponent Milena Koleva pulled out due to a chest infection, this was still a much improved performance from the Bray woman, compared to December 60-53 points win over Viviane Obenhauf.
Whereas her frustration was evident following that win, a more relaxed Taylor was satisfied with her third professional success.
"It was great to get the stoppage victory in the end. Boxing those types of opponents you can definitely express yourself a bit more. I felt a lot stronger and sharper," she said.
The seven weeks Taylor spent in camp since Christmas with her new coach Ross Enamait in Connecticut was reflected in both her patient approach and her use of body shots.
Indeed, the fight worked out much as Enamait had predicted. He had suggested that one shot knock-outs rarely happen in women's boxing; instead it was a question of wearing down opponents on the inside before delivering the coup de grace.
It was always likely that Taylor's fate in professional boxing would be significantly influenced by the relationship she developed with her new coach.
Her father Pete had a big influence on her career and their split left a huge void in her career.
The signs are that in boxing terms she has gelled with Enamait. Indeed, Taylor indicated that after working with him for a day she knew he would be coaching her for the rest of her career.
While Taylor's next assignment in the ring has yet to be confirmed, it is likely to be in Manchester on March 25 on the undercard of the World lightweight title rematch between Anthony Crolla and Jorge Linares.
She will definitely fight in Wembley on April 29 on the undercard of the World heavyweight showdown between Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko, for which 90,000 tickets have been sold.
A measure of Taylor's growing popularity was Sky's decision to schedule her Saturday fight immediately before the headline act between David Haye and Tony Bellew. It seems only a matter of time until she headlines a pay-per-view professional show.
According to her promoter Eddie Hearn, after the Manchester and Wembley fights, the plan is 'to move on to a fight in America and then I think we're ready for a (world title) shot".
It is envisaged that the World title fight involving Katie would take place in Dublin in September, which leaves open the possibility of using an outdoor venue.
Meanwhile, former European amateur champion Ray Moylette began his professional career on Saturday with a points wins after a four-round super lightweight contest against Slovakia's Ivan Godor in London. The Mayo man fights again in Boston on March 18.
"It's great start to win. It's a sign of things to come," said Moylette who was appropriately enough fighting in the Connaught Rooms, with Pascal Collins, brother of ex-World champion Steve, and Martin Brennan working his corner.
"He was loose and dangerous enough with the head - maybe that was his way to try and get out. I stayed away from him, I didn't want him to get disqualified.
"You are going to come across these type of fighters in this game and you learn. I won and learned and I'm happy enough with my performance. Boston next and 2 and 0."

Eden Hazard and brother Thorgan were both part of big money transfers this summer which made them the most expensive siblings in world football, in terms of cumulative fee. FOX Sports Asia takes a look at others who are a part of this exclusive club.
1. Eden and Thorgan Hazard – 125.5 million Euros (Belgium)
As mentioned at the start, both the brothers were on the move this summer. Eden Hazard fulfilled his childhood dream of moving to Real Madrid while Thorgan moved to Dortmund as a replacement for Pulisic, who in turn had moved to Chelsea.
It's a poetic triangle, but also a rather expensive one – Hazard cost Madrid approximately 100 million Euros while Thorgan moved for 25.5 million Euros, meaning the Belgian duo take the top spot in our list.
2. Paul and Florentin Pogba – 105.5 million Euros (France)
Paul Pogba briefly held the title of the world's most expensive footballer following his move to Manchester United and even though his performances have been mixed, the 'expensive' tag has endured.
Brother Florentin, meanwhile, hasn't scaled the heights of his World Cup-winning brother and currently plies his trade with Atlanta United in the MLS, but Paul's 100 million Euro fee ensures the second spot for the duo.
3. Lucas and Theo Hernandez – 104.0 million Euros (France)
When it comes to French siblings, Lucas and Theo Hernandez are another well-known duo, both plying their trades at European superpowers. Lucas earned an 80 million move to Bayern following a stellar World Cup where he featured in all of France's games.
Theo, meanwhile, signed for Madrid in 2017 for 24 million Euros but has found playing time hard to come by – spending the entirety of last season on loan at Sociedad.
4. Gonzalo and Federico Higuain – 91.3 million Euros (Argentina)
While everyone has heard of Gonzalo Higuain and his 90 million Euro move to Juventus from Napoli, which at the time was a Serie A record, only a few know that the former Argentina international also has an older brother – Federico.
Federico Higuain, who currently plies his trade with Columbus Crew SC(MLS) has spent the vast majority of his career in the USA and South America, but also had a brief stint at Besiktas, before leaving for Mexico after having failed to settle in Turkey.
5. Romelu and Jordan Lukaku – 88.7 million Euros (Belgium)
Romelu Lukaku's 88.4 million move to Manchester United 2 years ago made him the most expensive Belgian footballer at the time, although this amount has since been eclipsed by Eden Hazard's transfer to Real Madrid.
Younger brother Jordan moved to Lazio for 4 million Euros a year earlier and is currently on the fringes of the squad, with a proposed move to Newcastle falling through after a failed medical. Despite their careers being at crossroads at the moment, their combined valuating of 88.4 million sees them take 5th place.
6. Kaká and Digão – 67.5 million Euros (Brazil)
Best known for being the last player to win the Ballon d'Or before the Messi-Ronaldo hegemony, Kaká's 67 million Euro move to Real Madrid alone accounts for almost the entirety of the fee.
His brother Digão meanwhile, is better known for coining the famous nickname 'Kaká', than he is for his footballing skills. Nevertheless, Digão too spent a good 6 years at Milan, whom he joined for a 500,000 Euro fee, before leaving to seek greener pastures.
7. Anthony and Johan Martial – 60.8 million Euros (France)
The final French representation in the list comes from Anthony and Johan Martial. While Anthony is just at the beginning of his career – he moved to Manchester United in a 60 million Euro deal 4 years ago at the age of 19, older brother Johan's much-travelled career has taken him to Israeli Premier League team Ashdood FC.
8. Rio and Anton Ferdinand – 56 million Euros (England)
Having held the title of the most expensive defender in the world twice, Rio Ferdinand's 46 million to Manchester United made him the most expensive British player at the time as well and it is safe to say he paid back the money in full.
Anton Ferdinand, although never quite as good as his brother, forged a successful career in his own right, his 10 million move from West Ham to Sunderland being the highlight of his career.
9. Yaya and Kolo Toure – 48.7 million Euros (Ivory Coast)
One of the most celebrated brothers in Premier League history, Yaya and Kolo Toure are perhaps the most evenly matched set of brothers in the entire list – in terms of fees as well as relative talent.
Both of them are Premier League winners and Kolo's move Manchester City contributes 18.7 million to the cumulative total, as compared to Yaya's transfer which was worth 30 million Euros, also to Manchester City.
10. Nemanja and Uros Matic – 47.7 million Euros (Serbia)
The only pair from Eastern Europe to feature on the list, Nemanja Matic's moved to Manchester United in a 44.7 million transfer 2 years ago while brother Uros features for FC Copenhagen, having joined them in the same year for a 3 million Euro fee.

A rational discussion about the future of
US-China relations
It's time for a new approach to one of the central drivers of the 21st century.
The US-China Series is a sequence of events designed to provide a forum for thoughtful debate and critical dialogue. Our Mission: To forge a deeper and long lasting understanding on how two different economic and political models can see through their differences for the benefit for the world at large
The world's foremost experts will convene to delve into issues like Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence, Bilateral Investment, Trade Policy, Health and Medicine, and National Security and Diplomacy in an effort to provide a sensible, wide-ranging and nuanced discussion on how to move forward.
The future of the most important relationship of the 21st century is not limited to the Washington Beltway. Business leaders, policy makers, institutional investors and academics from across the country are joining the US-China Series – all have a strong vested interest in solving critical issues. Only with diversity of thought can true progress be made. This isn't an intellectual exercise. This is about solutions for business and policy prescriptions for government.
Core Issues
Trade Policy
While the economic and diplomatic challenges facing the United States and China are wide ranging, trade remains the central issue and political hotbed in both countries. With globalization under threat, the rules of engagement that have benefitted billions of people are being challenged.
Bilateral Investment
As the trade dispute has morphed into a broad remaking of the entire economic relationship, bi-lateral capital flows are becoming the next source of tension. From Chinese ownership of US treasuries to the listing of China's leading companies on US exchanges, the interdependence of both countries regarding investment flows is subject to increasing skepticism.
Global Health and Life Science
Reevaluating the US-China relationship means understanding the growing role of China in health, development and other essential global goals. Using low-cost, rapid commercialization capability to scale up affordable solutions is an effective model for China, and its own technology is becoming increasingly sophisticated. What does this new landscape mean for US institutions and what opportunities are there to collaborate to improve human conditions around the world?
Artificial Intelligence
The United States and China are in the midst of an arms race for dominance in artificial intelligence. China's state sponsored approach utilizes the power of technology powerhouses Alibaba, Baidu and Tencent to drive forward their agenda, while the United States is relying on the power of the free market and their own tech behemoths to take machine learning and AI to every facet of daily life.
Cyber Security
Policymakers in Beijing and Washington have taken a spate of actions aimed at securing supply chains and data as more vulnerabilities are created by technological interdependence. Is it possible to create security in low-trust environments as more physical systems rely on software? Are we headed for a bifurcated technology world?
National Security & Diplomacy
China's economic rise has led to claims about a new kind of military rival to the United States not seen since the Soviet Union. As the complexity of the digital age changes the nature of conflict and cooperation, the United States and China are central to a quickly evolving world order.

To add value for savings and for retirement – Mutual funds, directly stock market, ULIP, PPF, Bank FD, NSC, LIC, Infrastructure bonds.
Kindly comment taking all the above instruments in consideration.
To add value for savings and for retirement – Mutual funds, directly stock market, ULIP, PPF, Bank FD, NSC, LIC, Infrastructure bonds.
Kindly comment taking all the above instruments in consideration.
GOI Bonds are the best option to invest it will seem that rate of intrest is really low in these bonds but on actuall basis its 100% tax free and you can invest any amout without being subject to incom tax .
After retirement investing your hard earned money with a guaranteed repayment is a must. So, as now the interest rates for FD's in Public Sector Banks have gone up and that too for Senior citizens they are offering one percent extra. Investment in FD's in Nationalised banks is the best bet.
Secondly, PPF is also secured and you can only withdraw after a fixed time.
Investing in the stock market in the present trend is not advisable.

Hi Priyanka
I am working as an LIC insurance Advisor and a mutual fund dealer too
I would suggest you to go for a balanced portfolio of investments. Instead of pulling the matter and telling you all the story, I am just telling you what I have done for myself. May be, it will help you out as I have planned my portfolio in an intelligible manner
Rs 100000 was my investment and I put it into
1. 40000
LIC-Jeevan Surabhi-SA=500000, Premium=40000 per annum. From this policy, I will be getting Rs 100000 after every 4 years. This 100000 rupees will be invested by me into a single premium ULIP like Money Plus, Market Plus, etc.
2. 25000
I invested this amount into mutual funds in a SIP scheme
3. 10000
Bank FD
4. 12000
Recurring Deposits
5. Balance
Shares and PPF
Hope this helps you out in planning your investments too
Please do contact me for any further information. i would be very glad to tell you more
First and foremost decide on your investment horizon. Do you want your invested money back in 2 years, 4 years etc, or do you want to save for your retirement (old age). Then calculate how much money you can afford to invest. My advice is that you should keep a cash buffer which should be able to take you through at least 5-6 months in case your income stops suddenly. secondly decide how much risk are you willing to take with your money.
According to that you should invest.
If you want your money back in a short period 2-6 years then invest some of it in Mutual Funds and Fixed Deposits. If you want to save for retirement then you can invest in various places like Mutual Funds, Fixed Deposits, some gold, Insurance etc.
For small investor with limited financial back-up,the best option is On-line Investment.
The average Return of Investment(R.o.I) is between 10-30% per month.
There are many type of on-line investments BUT always bear in mind MANY of them are SCAM or "Ponzi"(Terms used by on-line investors for scammer scheme)
Always check the validity of such programme. Check the background of the company or consult advise from experienced investors.(Check with the authority WILL NOT help,as they will advise you not to get involved in such programme. The reason is the on-line investment provider doesn't registered their company in other countries other than thier based country)
If you wish to know more, feel free to contact me.

COMMUNITIES across West Mercia are being asked for their views on local policing as part of a new project from the Police and Crime Commissioner.
County residents are being surveyed on a range of subjects, including the visibility of local policing, relationships with officers and local crime priorities.
PCC John Campion said: "Our town and parish councils are extremely well connected to the issues that matter most to the communities they serve. Their feedback on local policing and crime will help inform priorities for myself as well as our police force. It will also help identify where and how local police relationships are working well, or if they can be improved."
The survey is open until July 6 2018. Postal versions are available on request from the PCC.

You are currently browsing the category archive for the 'Robert Gates' category.
James Carroll quoted Wilfred Owen's poem in his column in today's Boston Globe.
Parable of the Old Man and the Young
So Abram rose, and clave the wood, and went,
And took the fire with him, and a knife.
And as they sojourned both of them together,
Isaac the first-born spake and said, My Father,
Behold the preparations, fire and iron,
But where the lamb for this burnt-offering?
Then Abram bound the youth with belts and straps,
and builded parapets and trenches there,
And stretchèd forth the knife to slay his son.
When lo! an angel called him out of heaven,
Saying, Lay not thy hand upon the lad,
Neither do anything to him. Behold,
A ram, caught in a thicket by its horns;
Offer the Ram of Pride instead of him.
But the old man would not so, but slew his son,
And half the seed of Europe, one by one.
Wilfred Owen
A week after writing this, Owen was dead on the battlefield of World War I.
Carroll's column in the Globe today tells of Robert Gates' (Secretary of Defense) speech in which he takes responsibility for the lives of the young in his charge: "I feel personally responsible for each and every one of you, as if you were my own sons and daughters." Carroll says that the speech is extraordinary "for its frank acknowledgement that America's elders have consistently failed the nation's sons and daughters in sending them off to war." Gates says that our war efforts since Vietnam have been perfectly wrong. (Many would include Vietnam in America's record of getting it wrong.)
By all means read Carroll's column and read Gate's speech. They are direction signs for our military in this century. But I wonder if Carroll understood Gates' speech or was he using it to make a separate point, one not found in the speech. I think what Gates decries is not the strategy of sending our young to war but the tactics used once we do. He "takes responsibility" for the young solders he was speaking to at the very tail end of the speech. I wonder if he deeply feels the responsibility he expressed. Or was he saying what he felt he must say on such an occasion in such a speech. I hope he reads James Carroll's column today and reflects on what the story of Abraham and Isaac implies. Maybe he'll read Wilfred Owen's poem too — I doubt it but one can hope.

So, the same guy who said during the 2012 campaign that Mitt Romney would put black people back in chains has decided on a race-baiting campaign to get himself elected.
Biden said in a video released Thursday morning that President Trump had assigned moral equivalence to the white supremacists at Charlottesville in 2017 and the protestors.
"In that moment, I knew the threat to this nation was unlike any I had ever seen in my lifetime," Biden said. "I wrote at the time that we're in a battle for the soul of this nation. Well, that's even more true to today."
Biden added that "history will look back, on four years of this president and all he embraces, as an aberrant moment in time. But if we give Donald Trump eight years in the White House, he will forever and fundamentally alter the character of this nation — who we are — and I cannot stand by and watch that happen."
So, you know, this isn't about him. Biden felt obligated to run. Of course.
Biden assigns
Biden also is announcing as if the rest of the Democratic field doesn't exist. By going after Trump, he's suggesting that he already is the Democratic nominee, trying to create an air of inevitability. That will end pretty quickly.

There are myriad various methods by which you might design your bathroom. Naturally, decorating a bathroom can be a rather involved procedure, and if you don't get a great idea where to begin and which steps to take, you may discover yourself overwhelmed by it all. There are lots of things you want to store in a contemporary bathroom.
You should figure out which sort of bathroom that you'll need to occupy a small space of your basement. Bathrooms are generally pretty small, meaning that you won't require a good deal of floor tile. Sure, everyone would like to get a luxuriously expansive bathroom, but the truth is that the majority of us have to make do with something a little more utilitarian.
Whatever feel you want your bathroom to have is just a couple clicks away. Your bathroom can have a modern together with old Victorian feeling with the type of lights you choose to install. If it is a small bathroom, it is going to make it seem dark.
If it has to do with remodeling your bathroom for the use of making it even more spacious, it is crucial you take into account the storage and organization aspect. The bathroom wasn't pretty, stylish, or fun for children. A wonderful comfy bathroom doesn't need to be painted in white or pastel colours.

Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle (PG)
Starring Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, Karen Gillan
Directed by Jake Kasdan
It's The Breakfast Club meets Tron when four teens — a brain, an athlete, a basket case and a princess — are transported into the titular video game world which looks a lot like Hawaii. There, the foursome embark on a treasure hunt in their avatars — played by Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan and Jack Black, respectively — each imbued with a set of strengths and weaknesses.
For those unfamiliar with the Robin Williams original (there's only one token reference to his character — so there goes the nostalgia value), this jungle adventure is an Indiana Jones rip-off, awe-free and uninspired. But there's enough silliness to appeal to undemanding kids of a certain age. Elsewhere, the body swap shtick gets tiresome after a while, especially with Black channelling his inner queen bee (look out, there's a family-friendly erection gag!).
Johnson is likeable as usual, always game to send himself up, but he isn't the Franchise Viagra here, though; he's more like a placebo. His alter ego has a very cool name, Smolder Bravestone. Sadly, this movie rarely catches fire. (**)

The cricket world cup fever has taken over. From the joyous win against West Indies to witnessing the thrilling match of India-Pakistan, it's safe to say, this world cup has provided us with enough entertainment. But if you take a deeper look, you can definitely find a few life lessons that this world cup has taught us. Here are few that I picked up:
I. Not everything in life will go according to plan:
Life is unpredictable. You might plan something for yourself but there might come some hurdles that will clash with your plan. Just look at England's weather and what it is doing to the matches. The growth of your life can also be interrupted by some unwanted rain, so plan accordingly.
II. Always appreciate people's efforts:
It's very easy to blame people. When a player performs badly in one match, we just forget all the previous things he has done for us. Pointing fingers at someone for one bad result should not flush down all the good things that person has done for you.
III. Never look down upon anyone:
Being humble is the key to success. No matter how big you make it in life, don't make fun of, or look down upon people who are trying to do well in life, because you never know when the people that you took for granted start winning in life, and you turn into the favourite template of meme pages.
IV. Stand up against wrong:
How Virat Kohli requested fans not to mock Steven Smith during their match is the best example of standing up against wrong things gracefully. He taught us all that there are peaceful ways to raise your voice against wrong things.
V. Keep doing your best no matter what people say:
The biggest lesson that you can learn from this world cup is that no matter how much people talk about you, you just need to stay focused on your goals, and keep moving forward. When you no longer care about what people say about you, you can forget past mistakes and win at life.
Our life is like a game of cricket. You can't always come out as a winner, but you can always earn respect and experience along the way as you play it. Remember, even if you don't win the toss, the game can still be won through hard work and dedication.

Written DirectionsJust south of Lake Junaluska, NC, off of US 23 (exit 103), take "US 19 South" as it takes you west to the town of Cherokee. At the end of this route you will run into route 441 which goes north in to Tennessee or back down south to "The Hellbender 28" or you can take 74 west for a trip to Deals Gap.
SceneryThe scenery along this route is some of the prettiest I have ever seen, with the road carved out of the mountain. The mountain is so close to the edge of the road if you have a passenger they could probably reach out and touch the rock. There is water at the bottom of the valley you are traveling through for most of the trip. For part of this road you will enter the Cherokee Nation's reservation. It carries you also through Maggie Valley which is worth the trip just by itself.
Drive Enjoymentthe road because of being cut through from the mountainside is narrow, and the top speed is about 40 at best. Some of the turns are difficult so if you are going through this route as a warm up to riding the Tail of the Dragon this would get you in the mood. Good twisties with large elevation changes along the way.
Tourism OpportunitiesCherokee itself offers a full up casino, and all the amenities that would involve. Getting gas along this route is chancy at best. If you have a thirsty bike it would be best to fill up at Lunaska Lake first. There is a gas station at Cherokee. Maggie Valley is a really nice tourist stop with camping, and food as well as shopping in a beautiful setting.

Yes, these roads stated here are some of the best around to ride and to sight see. we have road all routs listed here, and it was truely an awesome ride. Another great ride we have been on was started on this route went up hwy 28 to deals gap and then on to the chelohala skyway, that to us was better than the tail of the dragon, because of the veiws that you have and the roads, plus it was a longer ride. the road is actually made on the outside of all the moutains that you go through. Telleco plains to Chattanooga TN, on hwy 64 all the way was anawesome ride as well, we went on there after going through the skyway. After we got to Chattanooga TN stayed with my brother for the night, got up and went on to 64 through northcarolina then turned off on to go to Helen Georgia went through there, and all the way through toccoa GA and into SC, through anderson on 123. We love to ride new roads, and the Road that the Tail of the dragon is on, you can go all the way through and turn left i think it is and that will take you right to peigon Forge Tn that is a great ride as well. We doe that last year. ceasars head in SC, you can follow 276 all the way through and it takes you to brevard NC I think, anyways that is a gorgous ride too. there have been alot of roads we have rode since we have started riding in 2006.

Rode this parkway in October 2010, with leaves starting to turn. It's got some straightaways where you can enjoy the scenery, but keep in mind the when the signs say 20 mph curve, believe it. There are some nice pull off to see the valleys and no gas or food stops. In October the temperatures changed as you climb and descend the parkway.

A good solid cruise out to Cherokee. It's a bit hard to not take BRP west when you cross by it, but if the weather is poor or you want to stay warm, or just want to cruise 19 will do it for you. It's not boring by any means, just sedate, by comparison to many other roads around. Sure, it has its spikes of twisties, but nothing nuts. It certainly was great fun riding this in the dark and rain the first time I rode it after a long day with a few mapping errors. I don't recommend this kind of 'fun.'

Palo Alto, California
What Drink Says "Palo Alto"?
Mix How You Would Describe This City!
Southside of France
- Formula
This cocktail brings in elements of two classics: The Southside and The French 75. It's an effervescent mix of gin, sparkling wine, fresh lemon, sugar and mint, and it looks great all dolled up in a champagne glass.
1½ oz gin
¾ oz fresh squeezed lemon juice
¾ oz simple syrup
5-6 mint leaves
1-2 oz champagne
Combine gin, lemon, simple and mint in a mixing glass. Fill with ice. Shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain into a champagne glass and top with champagne. Garnish with a single mint leaf by rubbing the rim of the glass and then dropping gently into the drink.
Don't Think So?
Aperol Negroni
- Formula
To my mind, the great Negroni is an about immaculate mixed drink, but on the other hand it's an ideal case of the circumstance I depicted previously. It's excessively genuine for the event. With less liquor and less biting astringency than the conventional Campari, Aperol acquires sweeter, brighter notes. The Aperol Negroni takes a wonderful, yet commonplace, old companion, and slips her into something somewhat more agreeable.
1 oz gin
1 oz sweet vermouth
1 oz Aperol
Combine all ingredients in an ice filled mixing glass. Stir until the glass is cold in your hand. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a strip of orange peel by rubbing the peel pith side up along the rim of the glass then dropping it pith side down into the glass .
You Decide

Autumn is here and that means falling leaves. If you live in an area with lots of trees, then you may find your lawn, driveway and walkways covered with fall foliage. While the colors are beautiful, wet leaves can create a safety hazard and it is best to keep your walkways clear at all times. As for those leaves that are on your lawn, you have a few options. You can simply mow the leaves and let them decay to enrich your lawn or you can blow or rake the leaves to remove them.
If you do decide to remove the leaves, we recommend that you take the following steps:
1) Blow/rake your leaves in small piles onto a piece of plastic tarp
2) Drag the pile over to a designated area for composting
3) Repeat
4) Flip the leaves with a pitchfork every week
Don't have a compost area? No problem. You can easily build a simple enclosure from chicken wire, scrap lumber, or cinder blocks. Make it about 3 feet square, and be sure to leave gaps in the sides to let air circulate. Once you have piled your leaves into the bin, you can add other compost such as fruit and vegetable scraps, grass clippings, coffee grounds and eggshells. Do this and your leaves will transform into a healthy compost that will nourish your flowerbeds when the spring arrives.


text: Its Never Too Late for Furnace Installation Posted October 23, 2018 Our experts at realize that winter may not be the ideal time to get a new furnace. However, you can agree that installing a new furnace in the winter will provide a better outcome than the discomfort and potential home damages our Belton customers face if the furnace isn't working functioning properly. To provide your furnace with a long, efficient life span, Bell Air Conditioning Inc. advises routine maintenance. Even if you give your furnace optimal attention, a furnace will reach a certain age and it won't be cost-effective to perform repairs. So, what happens if the time comes during the Belton winter? There's no need to be concerned! Our professionals will be here to take care of you, putting your family's comfort as our top priority. How can you determine if you are ready for a new furnace? First, review the age of your furnace. If it's 15 to 20 years old, it's possibly nearing the end of its life span. Many times, it doesn't make sense to spend the additional money to repair a furnace that is older. Next, check your utility bills. If they seem more costly this season over previous years, your furnace may be having a hard time keeping up. Furnaces lose efficiency over time. When this happens, you'll notice a change in your heating costs. Another indication that it may be time to replace your furnace is if you've had it repaired a number of times. Further repairs may not be the best way to go. It may be in your best interest to replace your furnace with a new, more energy-efficient model. Investing in a newer model will likely save you money in the long run. If you're unsure if it's time for a new furnace installation, just call Bell Air Conditioning Inc. at 254-307-9572 and we'll be happy to take a look and discuss all of your options—whether that includes a replacement furnace or furnace repair. You can even arrange an appointment with us online if that's easiest for you. We are here to make sure you stay nice and cozy in your home during the Belton winter. Back To Blog

The birds laid a clutch of eggs three weeks ago in the nesting box at the Wildlife Aid Foundation in Leatherhead.
