  Jekyll & Hyde Customer ServiceI just got off the phone with a credit card account company. I was closing a merchant account that I no longer used. A simple transaction, or so I thought.After waiting on hold for a couple of minutes (I love the on hold dialog that says “your call is important to us and will be answered in the order received” - I always say to myself, and sometimes out loud, “your call is important to us, but not important enough to staff enough operators to actually answer it in a reasonable time”), I told the operator that I would like to close my account.

It’s Wednesday night, sitting at home, watching some quality premium cable. I know it’s premium because it costs me a lot more money than CNN. A glance at the schedule tells me one of the greatest shows in TV history, cable or otherwise, is on in a few. The Larry Sanders Show. I flip around to kill a little time, and stumble across the polar opposite of cable’s greatest triumph. “Arliss”. Ugh. By nature I hate vanity projects. In “Forget Paris” Billy Crystal plays a NBA referee. What an amazing coincidence! I hear he likes basketball. His next movie is about Mickey Mantle, who through another masterstroke, was one of Billy’s idols. I’d look for it soon on a 3 o’clock flight to Boston. Crystal is not alone on this, he just happens to be more obvious about it. Actors have fawned over athletes since the wax cylinder. Athletes share a similar interest in acting or how else could we have seen the gift that Shaquille brings to the screen? In most cases, it’s a blip. A guest shot on a show, or courtside seats at a Knicks game. The public usually doesn’t have to endure it for years on end. If “Arliss” were on broadcast TV, it would have been gone by the third commercial, but cable has a way of coddling it’s ugly stepchildren. I think in some leather-covered executive’s office, he sees great promise in a series about a smarmy agent and his wacky office staff. Or he sees free tickets from the numerous “Guest Athletes.” Robert Wuhl is a confessed sports junkie, and I’m sure any junkie would love to sit down with Dan Marino and chew the fat. I’d love to hear what is going on in Mike Modano’s head going down the ice. Actually I wouldn’t. I hate hockey. You get the point. The series itself has worn thinner each year. I checked it out the first couple of years, and marveled at how little it takes to fill a half-hour. You get a borderline sports star, itching for a SAG card, you make up a little story about him and his sport, and you swear a lot. It is after all cable. In one episode, a home run hitter is inching toward his 500th homer, and the race is on by Arliss and his crew to milk it for all it’s worth. Because he’s an agent, get it? Well, not to spoil it for you, but in the end a bullpen coach catches it and wants a whole mess of money because he doesn’t get paid as much as the slugger. See, that was a half-hour! While the stories themselves are barely above public access, what make it all the more frightening are the athletes. Their agents want to get them on the show to flex their acting muscle and show the world that Gary Carter* isn’t the only ex-athlete to make his mark in film. More often than not, you get to see that as an actor, Grant Hill is an excellent shooting guard. Roger Clemens showed us his performance in “Kingpin” wasn’t a fluke. Don’t ever ask about Juwan Howard. At some point, someone should stop this. In the closing moments of the episode before “Larry Sanders”, Arliss sent his star pitcher to a hypnotist who forces his patients to…ummm…gratify him without their knowledge. See, he did it to win a bet, and the only way to win the bet was to have the pitcher see his hypnotist. Arliss knew it meant that the pitcher would go through this, but he had to win back his favorite wooden leg. The pitcher threw a perfect game. Boy, if he only knew. Because he had to…with the hypnosis guy…and…the wooden leg. It took back-to-back Larry Sanders to make me forgive HBO for that. *1996-The Last Home Run—Look it up.

1. How To Tell A Licensed Taxi In London And The Uk - by

As Malaga strives towards being the European City of Culture for 2016 and the seat of communication and economic growth for the south of Spain, substantial investment has been ploughed into developing the region?s infrastructure. A serious overhaul of the transportation network has included construction of a brand new terminal and runway at Malaga Airport, due to be finished in 2010, and the massive expansion of Malaga Maria Zambrano Train Station which now boasts the Vialia Shopping and Leisure Centre, a 4 star hotel and an increase in train lines from 5 to 8. Completed in 2006, this has enabled the station to go from purely providing local routes to high speed AVE links to major cities such as Barcelona, Madrid and Seville, a huge coo for Malaga. The new station is a bright, airy composition and is filled with almost every modern convenience. The lay out is simple and effective. Those travelling into the station by train are first greeted by a newsagents and a cafeteria as they disembark. Once through the exit doors there is a luggage scanner on the left for people boarding the trains and on the right there is a Unicaja cashpoint, lockers to store luggage and phones. Beyond this is a passage lined with the four Malaga train station car hire firms, which are Avis, Europcar, Hertz and National Atessa. At the end of this walkway lies the entrance to the Barcelo Malaga Hotel and Convention Centre. The four star hotel has a fresh, contemporary design with 222 rooms, free Internet, fabulous breakfast buffet, clean, comfortable rooms and even a slide which runs from the 1st floor to the ground floor. Staying here is ideal for exploring Malaga as taxis and buses are located in front of the main exit and the trains are always on hand to take you off on daytrips to locations further afield. For those that love retail therapy there is of course the Vialia Shopping Centre right on the door step. This steel, concrete and glass structure forms a semi-circular loop to the right of the station as it appears coming through the doors from the main entrance. The ground floor hosts all the most popular shops from Zara and Zara Home to Massimo Dutti, Accessorize, Bodyshop and Berksha with a cafeteria El Yate offering a place to indulge in cakes, sandwiches and a restorative cup of tea. While these stores mainly sell clothes, cosmetics and home decoration, there are also an opticians, travel agents, mobile phone and computer game shop. Upstairs on the 1st floor is where the entertainment is centred with a 13 screen Yelmo cinema, a 3,000 m2 professional bowling alley and a plethora of restaurants and fast food establishments including McDonald?s, Foster Hollywood and Haagen Dazs, as well as more traditional Spanish fare in the form of La Taberna del Sur. Arriving via the main entrance there are 12 tickets desks and 2 information desks to the left, plus automatic check-in kiosks where passengers can print off tickets by putting in their booking reference number. It also allows people to make changes to bookings they have made online. The local trains are the Cercan?as Renfe split into the C2 trains which go towards Fuengirola and the C1 trains which head to downtown Malaga, taking in Malaga Pablo Picasso Airport just four stops from Maria Zambrano. These trains depart from the left hand platforms past the ticket barriers and the journey to the airport takes approximately 15 minutes at a cost of 1.25 euros single. However this means of airport transfer is ill-advised if travelling with a lot of luggage or with mobility issues, as it is located an arduous 10 minute walk from the terminal. To get to the station from the airport turn right out of the Malaga Airport departures hall, walk along the pavement following the signs, cross the road, pass through the car park and out the other side. Here there is a footbridge which takes you over the main road into the airport and down some steep stairs to the station. Be sure to check which train you are getting on because there is only one platform. Either check the destination written on the front or remember that trains coming from the left are going to Fuengirola, while those coming into the station from the right are heading to Malaga. If you are fit and agile and without much baggage it won?t be a problem, otherwise it is better to get the bus as even the steps on to the train itself are steep and small. The Malaga Airport buses which take you to Maria Zambrano Station are located outside the Malaga Airport arrivals hall, 50 metres down on the right after exiting. The number 19 bus runs roughly every half an hour to the main bus station in Malaga, located just round the corner from the train station, at a fare of 1.10 euros for a single ticket. Originally the journey would have taken 20 minutes but now because of the prolific road works with the new metro installation, it takes around half an hour. Once off the bus, walk down the road past the main entrance for the buses and cross over the road. Turn left and just a little way up on the right will be the side entrance to the Vialia Shopping Centre. Bus services go several times a day to Granada, Nerja, Marbella and Torremolinos, to name a few and to places further afield such as Algcerias, Alhaurin and Madrid. When returning from the bus station to the airport the stop is situated behind Bay 30, which is at the end of the central walkway and is specially designated only for airport buses. Be careful with high heels on this walkway as it is heavily polished marble and can be slippery. Maria Zambrano Train Station is open between 06.15 and 00.45 and if you have organised a car hire at Malaga Airport, there is parking in front for 1,500 vehicles. Of those spaces, 1,250 are underground and 250 are on ground level. Charges are ?0.026 per minute for the first half hour and ?0.025 there after with a maximum fee of ?18 for the whole day. Visitors travelling by long distant or high speed train on Preferential, First and Club Class get 24 hours free parking per ticket, so for a return ticket to Madrid for example it is 48 hours free parking. To reach the train station by car drive onto Avenida de Andalucia, take a right at the El Corte Ingles roundabout, carry on straight until you reach a roundabout with the Eroski shopping centre and then turn left onto the Calle de la Explanada de la Estaci?n. The station will come into a view a few minutes later on the right. It is just a two minute walk from the older Larios Shopping Centre. Useful Telephone Numbers: Station information 902 43 23 43 Information and sales 902 24 02 02 Disabled travellers 902 11 00 55

3. Malaga Airport Taxi Transfers - by Michael J Lee

If you are one of the many millions of Brits expected to fly out on holiday to the Costa del Sol this year, there is a good chance you’ll be jetting into Malaga Airport. As Spain’s 4th busiest airport, Malaga Pablo Picasso Airport sees approximately 13 million passengers through its gates each year, which results in the 2 terminals (soon to be 3) getting a little chaotic especially around peak season. With this in mind, it pays dividends to know in advance exactly where everything is. So once the luggage has been collected, the main priority for most people is getting out of the airport and to accommodation as quickly as possible so the fun can start. This more often means finding the right car hire at Malaga Airport. Whether due to impatient kids, size-able baggage or the unfamiliar temperatures, trying to grapple with confusing airport signage and wade through golfers, foreign students, hen parties, as well as regular holiday-makers, can prove a trying way to start a holiday, unless forearmed with the right knowledge. Our Idiot’s Guide can ensure you move like a heat seeking missile through the swathes of people, reach your target desk and be out of there before you’ve even had a chance to break a sweat. There are currently 23 Malaga Airport car hire firms in total but only 10 of these are based directly inside the Terminal 2 building itself. These are Auriga Crown, Autos Lido, Avis, Europcar, Goldcar, Hertz, National Atesa, Record, Sixt and Solmar. Access to these offices is just through the doors after baggage reclaim but before going through the final doors to the Malaga Airport Arrivals hall. On the right hand side is a ramp that takes you downstairs to where all the offices are. When you collect your keys, the staff member behind the desk will inform you which level of the car park your vehicle is situated on and the number of the bay. This will either be on your key fob or will be written down for you. From there you go to the opposite end of the hall to the entrance ramp, which takes you through to Level -1 of the car park. At the moment, the cars are spaced out over three levels: Ground Floor, Level -1 and Level -2. Most pick-up cars are parked between two floors with Auriga Crown, Europcar, National Atesa, Record, Solmar and Sixt on the Ground Floor and Autos Lido, Avis, Goldcar, Hertz, and both National Atesa and Record represented again on Level -1. To return a vehicle, there is a special entrance for rental cars which is just past the regular P1 and P2 parking entrance bays. There is no ticket to collect when entering and passengers do not have to return the keys to the original terminal-based office as there is a corresponding office for each company on one of the three floors. Sixt is the only one that has 2 offices and these are on the ground floor and Level -2. Autos Lido, Avis, Goldcar, Hertz and Record all have their offices on Level -1, while Auriga Crown, Europcar, National Atesa, Sixt and Solmar?s are situated on Level -2. These offices are also for use by people renting a car but not flying from the airport. The much smaller Terminal 1 also has 5 car hire check-in desks which are on the left as you coming through into arrivals. They are Auriga Crown Malaga Airport, Autos Lido Malaga Airport, Europcar Malaga Airport, National Malaga Airport and Sixt Malaga Airport. Most of the off-airport rental firms are located on a slip road running adjacent to the approach road into the airport called Avenida Garcia Morato. These Malaga car hire companies are Cargest, First Car Group, Global, Helle Hollis, Holiday, Malagacar, National, Niza and Top rent-a-car. Getting to these is incredibly simple as each puts on a specially-dedicated courtesy bus that either schedules runs to and from the airport every 15 minutes or uses the flight details of the customers to turn up at the right time. These buses collect from just outside the arrivals terminal by the regular bus stop which is around 50 metres down on the right after exiting the building. When returning the vehicle, drivers are advised to go round the roundabout and come back on themselves to turn right into the slip road called Avenida Garcia Morato. The final four Malaga Airport car rental firms are located just over the roundabout, after the BP garage on the right hand side and are Autolink, Marbesol, Tony?s and Yellow Car. They are also reachable via a footbridge that runs over the road. To find the footbridge turn right out of the Malaga Airport departures hall and follow the signs for the train station, which will lead you a little further down before making you cross the road and go through the car park.

Los títulos siguientes se extraen de los artículos y de los sitios de las noticias, y sirven como par de los ejemplos donde la falta de freno se ha identificado como la causa principal de accidentes y de muertes del potencial en los caminos del africano del sur. Los taxis y los autobúses son sin embargo no los únicos culpables. Cada dueño del vehículo que mantiene su propio vehículo, usando los cojines de freno falsificados para ahorrar un par del rand, riesgo no sólo sus el propios vive pero también los de sus familias y de otros conductores en el camino. “Enero de 2004 - los malos frenos hacen trampas de la muerte de los carros” Setenta por ciento de carros examinados por el policía de tráfico de camino durante una operación de los bombardeos en los caminos KwaZulu-Natales la semana pasada fueron encontrados para tener frenos defectuosos…. “Noviembre de 2004 - “Muerte-atrapar los taxis no tiene ningún lugar en nuestros caminos” (2004)” El tráfico manda pensamiento que era una poder de cooldrink en el tablero de instrumentos del taxi del microbús - pero estaban a punto de ser atontados. Encontraron allí eran una pipa unida a la poder que ésa condujo al depósito del líquido de frenos en el compartimiento del reactor. El conductor vertía continuamente el líquido de frenos en la poder mientras que conducía. Éste era apenas uno de los defectos que horrorizaban encontrados por los oficiales del departamento del policía del metro de Johannesburg (JMPD) que conducían incursiones en los taxis como parte de sus 500 días simbólicos de la operación del día, que incluye blitzing de taxis en las filas… (Referencia. IOL.co.za, 5 de noviembre de 2004) Radebe culpa falta de freno en los accidentes del autobús (2006) La falta de freno era un factor importante en una crecida reciente de los accidentes del autobús, ministro de transporte Jeff Radebe dicho el jueves. Los “autobúses implicados en estos accidentes son claramente viejos y no roadworthy,” él dijo a operadores de un autobús del SA conferencia de la asociación (Saboa) en Pretoria. A veces, los autobúses fueron cabidos con las nuevas piezas para pasar pruebas roadworthy, después de lo cual fueron quitados. Los operadores que autobúses estrellados debido a negligencia, recklessness y unroadworthiness ser sostenidos responsables, él advirtió. Radebe dicho todos los subsidios de estado de recepción de los operadores del autobús tendrá que renovar sus flotas y experimentar la prueba regular en las instalaciones autorizadas… ¿Cuándo debo substituir mis frenos? Síntomas de la falta de freno: 1. Ruidos Tu sistema de frenos puede gritar para la ayuda si estás oyendo ruidos extraños cuando presionas el freno. Dos del más común son chirridos y el moler. 2. Chirría La fricción de la guarnición de freno causa calor. Bajo condiciones extremas esto puede dañar los cojines y/o la guarnición, los tambores de freno y los rotores. 3. El moler Los sonidos que muelen metálicos indican que tus cojines de freno están usados a través. El contacto metal sobre metal dañará los tambores o los rotores. 4. Pedal de freno bajo o que se descolora ¿Tus frenos requieren el bombeo para parar el coche? ¿El pedal se hunde al entarimado cuando te paran en una luz? Puede haber un escape en el sistema de frenos, aire en las líneas del freno, o la necesidad de un ajuste del freno. 5. El tirar a una fricción del lado o del freno Las guarniciones del freno gastadas o desiguales o una línea dañada del freno pueden hacer tu vehículo tirar a un lado. Los frenos que son descontrolados o han contaminado el líquido pueden hacer frenos arrastrar. Frenar la prueba y la importancia de la certificación del cojín de freno - ECE R 90 y VC8053 El ECE R90 es un estándar europeo para los componentes del freno que requiere a fabricantes del freno conformarse y garantizar a los estándares del equipo original por lo que el funcionamiento y la calidad. Los productos que se conforman a estos estándar llevan una marca de “E” en productos y el empaquetado. En Europa los cojines de freno no pueden ser utilizados o ser vendidos a menos que lleven esta marca que prueba que ellos los estándares del funcionamiento y de calidad obedientes. La mayoría de los países alrededor del mundo están siguiendo el juego fijando los estándares a los cuales los cojines de freno tienen que conformarse. La regulación VC8053 es especificación mínima publicada en la gaceta no 22014 del gobierno del 2 de febrero de 2001, a el cual el freno las producciones en cadena en Suráfrica tiene que conformarse y esta especificación es regulada por el SABS. Las pruebas para ambas estas regulaciones consisten en pruebas del laboratorio y del camino - no entraremos el detalle sobre él sino resumiremos algo los requisitos: Pruebas del camino del cojín de freno: 1. Una serie de 0 tipos pruebas de la estandardización - frenando repentinamente bajo diversas condiciones de la velocidad y de la carga del vehículo con la puntería para probar la respuesta correcta en emergencias, el estacionamiento y diversas situaciones que frenan. 2. Pérdida de eficacia cuando está calentado - en la primera prueba el freno se utiliza 15 veces en la sucesión de probar su funcionamiento bajo diversas condiciones. En el proceso, el freno calienta. En el caso pasado su funcionamiento se mide y se comprueba para saber si hay la operación correcta después de lo cual los resultados se comparan al funcionamiento del freno cuando los frenos son fríos. 3. prueba de la Velocidad-sensibilidad - la presión se identifica en la prueba anterior de obtener una desaceleración de 5m/s2. La misma clase de prueba se repite en 65 kilómetros por hora, 90km/h y 135km/h para comprobar que la desaceleración del freno está mantenida con independencia de la velocidad a la cual el vehículo está viajando. Pruebas de laboratorio del cojín de freno: Una vez que se terminen las pruebas del camino, se hacen los pruebas de laboratorio mecánicos: 1. Prueba de la compresibilidad - la compresibilidad del cojín de freno no debe exceder el 5% de su grueso en 400 grados c 2. Resistencia al asimiento del freno - esta prueba determina simplemente la adherencia del material de la fricción a la ayuda del metal. Una vez que se terminen las pruebas se publica un número de aprobación y es obligatorio que los cojines de freno y el empaquetado contienen el número específico - ejemplo: E1. El empaquetado debe ser prueba del pisón y contener instrucciones en la lengua local donde el producto será vendido. Los cojines de freno obedientes de los estándares no sólo asegurarán los vehículos roadworthy pero también asegurarán la seguridad para el conductor y sus pasajeros cuando se necesita la mayoría. Impulsan a tan todos los dueños del vehículo asegurarse de que los cojines de freno del reemplazo que compran se conforman a los requisitos y a los estándares de la industria.

  How to get to Gatwick AirportYou’ve booked your holiday, your passports are up-to-date, visas are in order, so there’s only one thing left to think about: how are you getting to the airport? Gatwick airport is situated approximately 30 miles from the centre of London and roughly 45 miles from Heathrow airport. The options for travelling to Gatwick really depend on the direction from which you are travelling, however, Gatwick does have excellent road and rail connections - it was the first UK airport to combine air, rail and road transport services.

I just got off the phone with a credit card account company. I was closing a merchant account that I no longer used. A simple transaction, or so I thought.After waiting on hold for a couple of minutes (I love the on hold dialog that says “your call is important to us and will be answered in the order received” - I always say to myself, and sometimes out loud, “your call is important to us, but not important enough to staff enough operators to actually answer it in a reasonable time”), I told the operator that I would like to close my account.I was then promptly transferred to another line and waited another couple of minutes on hold. I then repeated my request to operator number 2, who then asked me for my merchant account number, business name, address, position in the company and why I wanted to close the account.I quickly answered all the questions and was then transferred to ANOTHER operator. After waiting on hold again for several minutes, I went through the same process with operator 3 as I went through with operator 2.Then operator 3 asked my why I wanted to close my account. I answered that I no longer use the account and have no need for it. Operator 3 asked if there was anything in the company’s service that I was displeased with or would like changed. I answered that there wasn’t (although I was thinking about mentioning their perpetual-hold phone system and the number of people I had to talk with to get my account closed).Operator 3 seemed determined to try every tactic to keep my business, as any good company should. But it quickly became obvious to her that I just didn’t need the account. I wasn’t dissatisfied with their service, I just did not have a need for it anymore.I was then given instructions to compose the letter/fax that is required to close my account (apparently verifying my account information three times was not enough of a security check, I needed to send in a letter as well).Up to this point I had been speaking to a very friendly operator.I was then informed that the closing date of my account (that should also be included in my letter) was five months later. I asked why I had to wait five months and was patronizingly informed that my “revolving” contract was for 6 months at a time and the next expiration was five months from now.If I canceled my account earlier I would have to pay a “$300 early termination fee”. So I had to pay $150 in monthly fees to avoid the $300 fee. The tone of the operator’s voice made me feel like she was steeling herself for a heated argument with an enraged customer.I simply said “un-huh” and nothing more. She then asked if I needed anything else, I said “no” and the call ended.By then I was a bit amused at the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde display I had just witnessed from this customer support operator and the company in general.First (as mild-mannered Dr. Jekyll) they try their best to keep me as a customer, fix any problems I may have had, promise better service in the future, lower my rates and wash my car (well, it seemed to be heading in that direction). It really seemed to me that they wanted to stay in my good graces and not part company with any bad blood between us.Then (Mr. Hyde appears) they whacked me with my choice of a $300 fine or a forced 5 months of extra unneeded service. First make sure there is no bad blood, then come up with a stupid reason for creating some in a relationship that had had no problems up to this point.Now what am I going to remember about the three years of service that they gave me? That I had no problems with them, that everything went smoothly? No. If asked, I am going to tell the story of how they tried to screw me when I needed to cancel my account.So much for good publicity. What was the point of their trying to preserve our relationship if they were just going to poison it at the end anyway?It seems that as long as I was a current customer the priority was to keep me happy, but when I become a former customer it is open season on my wallet (I still have to be a customer for 5 more months - so the first part is somewhat conditional).Well, I hope they enjoy the extra $150 they extorted from me because I am going to do my best to give them $150 of negative word-of-mouth. ***************************************************************(c) Simple Joe, Inc.David Berky is president of Simple Joe, Inc. a marketing company that sells simple software under the brand name of Simple Joe.

However, nowadays the concept of advertising has advanced a lot. Now advertising has emerged as a separate discipline in which people are pursuing various courses. In today’s world advertising means properly marketing the product. It means to make the product look beautiful and attractive so that the customers get attracted towards the product and purchase it. The main objective of advertising any product is to highlight the features and plus points of the product so that the customers get a short and crisp idea of the same. There are various types of advertising that are used to market the products. Generally one sees a audio and video advertising which is shown in television most of the times. However another major type of advertising is visual advertising. In case of visual advertising the advertising is done with the help of painted posters of bills. Such visual advertising can be seen on most of the taxis as they are the public transport and are used by general public. SO if you want to reach to the general public then Taxi Advertising is the best option for you. Such advertisements are easily accessible and readable as they are pasted on taxis which can be seen anywhere in the city. Apart from that the taxis carry the advertisements wherever they go. So the scope of your advertisements as well as your product increases as more and more people come to know of it. Thus taxi advertising is a very good idea for advertising products.

Random inspections may be carried out on US aircraft, the Irish government has warned, after a manacled marine was discovered by cleaners on board a military charter flight at Shannon airport. The transfer of the prisoner - deemed illegal because permission had not been sought in advance from Ireland’s justice department - has aggravated the political row over CIA renditions of terrorist suspects through European airspace. The US ambassador, James Kenny, was summoned to the foreign affairs department to explain the failure to comply with international regulations. He has been asked to produce a report on the incident. A report by the Council of Europe earlier this month named Ireland as one of 20 countries that had colluded in a “global spider’s web” of CIA jails and clandestine transfers of terrorist suspects. The government has accepted Washington’s insistence that there have been no US rendition flights through Irish airports. Opposition parties and human rights groups are pressing for police checks on US military and charter flights stopping at Shannon airport, near Limerick, which is used as a refuelling point for flights between the US and the Middle East. “We will look at all options including, if necessary, random inspections,” said Dermot Ahern, the republic’s foreign affairs minister. “Given the fact that an incident like this has happened we would put the [police] on notice that perhaps they should start inspecting on a case-by-case basis.” The US ambassador insisted that there had been no intention to break the law. “We regret this incident and are reviewing procedures to ensure that this does not happen again,” he said.

Jamaica is currently gaining popularity as the vacation destination of the rich and famous. One of the many captivating regions is that of Montego Bay, especially with the popular Round Hill Hotel and Villas. Guests will adore everything this hotel and resort can offer. Montego Bay, in Jamaica, was initially called the “Gulf of Good Weather” or “El Golfo de Buen Tempo” by the late Christopher Columbus. He was the first European who visited this island in the year 1494. However, until the 1720s, Montego Bay remained as a small, quiet town. It is until a Captain Jonathan Barnett, owner of a sugar plantation in the island, created 2 towns by just subdividing his property. This is known as Charles Town and Barnett Town. Later on, the waterfront as well as the towns rapidly developed, paving the way for commerce. By the year 1779, Fort Montego, situated in the outskirts of the city, was expanded and renovated. Thus, in the year 1980, the Jamaican Parliament officially proclaimed Montego Bay a city. At current, there are several oceanfront hotels in Montego Bay such as the famous Round Hill Hotel and Villas. This 5 star hotel in Montego Bay has a total of 110 rooms. This hotel is popular with celebrities and socialites. Some of the famous villa owners include the names Viscountess and Viscount Rothremere, producer/writer Noel Coward and famous designer Ralph Lauren. For a very reasonable nightly rate, you will love the hotel’s pool set within an adults-only 5 hectare spa-and-fitness retreat facility. It comes with a complimentary glass bottom boat tours and snorkeling. For a surcharge, you can scuba dive, water ski, fish and go for a crewed catamaran of 15.5 meters. What makes this hotel more exciting is its close proximity to a limestone cliff pocked by some shallow caves. Guests can decorate these caves with some white stones from the beach. With the hotels optional all-inclusive package, you don’t need to worry about anything. It is inclusive of all taxes, drinks, meals, gratuities, airport transfer and most of the majorly offered amenities of the resort. However, if you would rather book with the room-only package, the rate does not include the gratuities, drinks, meals and some of the offered amenities of the resort. Thus, getting the all-inclusive deal is really best for those who plan to relax the whole week and not worry about anything else. The beverages and food provided are the daily snacks, afternoon tea and meals. Non-alcoholic and alcoholic bar drinks are also included. Upon arrival, you will receive a fruit basket, bottle of champagne and a gift. As for transportation, you are guaranteed with the transfer to and from the Sangster/Montego Bay International Airport. Hence, whether singing up for the all inclusive package or not, guests can take part in activities like paddle boats, kayaking, sailing, windsurfing and snorkeling. You can also use the pools, tennis courts and fitness centers. For those who have kids, activities included would be the kid’s club, face painting, shirt painting, arts and crafts, as well as basket making, board games and beach games. For those who need a babysitter, it is offered for a fee. Montego Bay is truly a vacation destination of a lifetime. Jamaica not only offers you wonderful and relaxing opportunities but also a chance to bond with your loved ones, family or friends. When going to Montego Bay, make sure you are well equipped with information about the hotels, resorts, rates, activities, attractions and even the dining establishments available.

For vacationers traveling abroad, if you are in a tourist section, taxis and rental cars are generally very safe. The tropical paradise of Cuba is no different. Taxi and rental car services are most times reliable, however if you find yourself trying to use these services outside of population centers caution needs to be taken. There are nuances to utilizing both taxis and rental cars in Cuba. Rental cars can be found most commonly in or close to hotels. Other major locations for rental dealerships can be found near drop-off points of cruise ships and at airports. Finding locations from which to rent vehicles can be simple, however finding a reliable service can be a challenge. Situations have occurred in which patrons have had difficulty receiving the same vehicle that they reserved ahead of time. In many cases the rental company will try to give any car available to the renter, not just the one which was preferred. Another issue which can arise with the rental car system involves traveling with young children. Many vacationers have found that it can be difficult to find a reliable source of children’s seats. It is recommended to bring your own booster seat for the car if it is at all possible. Beyond these situations, the system of car rental is very good in Cuba. The taxi system works similarly well. The most significant threat can come from unregistered taxis. In many instances the travelers may have to negotiate price, and price negotiations can be tricky. Care should be taken, because the traveler has a significant risk of being ripped off. It is also possible to end up with rather uncomfortable travel situations if one tries too hard to find the more economic rates. However, as mentioned before, these flaws are limited, and easily overcome by the positive aspects of Cuba’s taxi system. One primary upside of the rental and taxi systems comes as a result of the overall infrastructure of the nation. Cuba has a system of highways that are well paved, at least in relation to other Caribbean countries, and relatively safe for travel. Speed limits are kept well in check allowing for easy travel. Traffic issues can be present in major cities as tourists and citizens crowd to make their way through the streets. While this problem is consistent, the overriding theme in transportation is comparative ease, when compared to other tropical vacation destinations. Another advantage of using taxis in Cuba comes is the variety of options available. This aspect is especially present in Varadero and Havana. The main alternative to a traditional taxi comes in the form of Coco-taxis. These vehicles are small, three wheeled cabs. These egg shaped vehicles are generally orange or yellow and make basic commutes a unique experience. At first glance they appear slow and insufficient to meet most travel needs, but on the road these cabs move swiftly through the streets. Coco-taxis offer services for a lower price then most taxi companies. The cost is negotiable and paid in advance, and is not a set fare for services. Other varieties of taxis can be found around Cuba. The most common of these is horse drawn cabs. This rustic means of travel is often accompanied by lanterns after dark, and can provide a very relaxing commute. Many vacationers to Cuba wind up not relying on any transportation service by spending the entirety of their vacation at their resort. Cuba has many modern resorts in which visitors find that they have everything they need in or close by to their hotel. However, if visitors to Cuba want to soak up the country’s distinct culture and history, they must venture out of the confines of their resort. The taxi and rental car market in Cuba provides a steady service to tourists. All things considered, vacationers can count on these services to get them where they’re going. The variety of ways to get around the tropical island coupled with the overall reliability of the roads makes travelling around Cuba an experience that can be quite rewarding. There are limitations, of course, but these are easily overshadowed by what the Cuban system of rental cars and taxis has to offer.

It is now possible to charter, rent or lease an aircraft for less than ever before and it has also become easier. Why charter an aircraft? Here are some good reasons: The increased security and hassle of commercial airline boarding. There are fewer airlines around. Fewer airlines are flying to fewer cities Because of economy restraints there are fewer seats for more passengers. It is now easier to charter, lease or rent a plane because there are more companies entering the aircraft leasing business. Also, a new generation of small jets is being produced as we speak, the so-called air taxis seating between 4 to 6 passengers for a total airplane cost of as low as 1 million dollars. These small jets are being produced in a so-called cookie-cutter design, 100 at a time and are also being purchased 100 at a time. Real Air Taxis will soon be on their way into major cities,” says London based AVCEN. Avcen is to bring its innovative Jetpod aircraft design off the drawing board and into proof-of-concept build and flight trials. The Jetpod is a unique, lightweight, Very Quiet Short Take-Off and Landing (VQSTOL), 6-seat, twin-jet powered aircraft. The Jetpod cruises at 350 mph and uses an unbelievable 410 feet of landing space. This is achieved through a combination of horizontal and vertical thrust management as developed by Avcen. No runways are required so you can take off from a private parking lot or your neighbor’s driveway. There are similar small jets being manufactured in the US as well. Aircraft Charter companies provide the following 4 functions in a variety of innovative ways: Renting (sometimes selling) aircraft for private use, performing aircraft maintenance, providing fuel, and aircraft management. The best way of finding an aircraft charter company is on line. You can also contact an aircraft charter broker who will sort of act as your airplane travel agent. They will handle all of your flight arrangements, including price comparisons, they will determine the correct aircraft for your trip,they will locate the correct charter company, make sure insurance is in place, and obtain copies of FAA flight certificates. There are also aircraft charter auctions available on the Web. Using a unique online auction, your trip itinerary is instantly sent to a network of pre-approved jet operators who are invited to bid on your trip. This increases competition and ultimately drives the price down. You can view this bidding action live, online. Fleet Membership allows you to buy occupied flight time in your preferred category of business jet in blocks of whatever flight hours you want with guaranteed availability. You enjoy the freedom and convenience of business jet travel without the costs or commitment of aircraft ownership. One Ways and Empty Leg Flights When a one way aircraft charter flight is booked, many times the aircraft has to return to it’s original airport. In a case like this, the plane will be flying empty. This is known as an empty leg. Because the aircraft charter operators like to make money if possible, they offer these empty legs for much less than a typical charter would cost. Flying in a Private Jet has become a Status Symbol. One of the perks most valued to CEO’s and lawmakers today is to have the use of a Private Jet. This is another reason why the Charter Aircraft business is at present growing at an astonishing rate which will increase even more as the air taxis costing one million dollars or so will enter service.

We all read, see and hear awful stories the public’s experiences with taxi journeys and when you look into the facts in detail most occur in unlicensed minicabs.You hear comments like, it was cheaper or it was the only taxi available, but at the end of the day it is their safety and well being that they are risking.This is the reason you should only use licensed taxis even if it might cost you a little more or you have a longer wait is a safe journey home! So what is the difference between and unlicensed and a licensed or an authorised taxi apart from your safe journey home.Well all local authorities or councils are responsible for licensing taxis; they have a department that issues licenses for both the taxi and its driver. Every licensing officer works from the same guidelines so throughout the UK with the exception of a few slight differences all applicable taxi regulations are pretty much the same. Firstly looking at the vehicle itself the taxi must be fit for purpose and in good repair. It must have a full road safety or mot certificate and most council will require a separate taxi test.Quite often this extra test is required every six months. Because of the high mileage a taxi drives in a year often more than a thousand miles per week, this is an extra safeguard on the taxis road worthy ness. Enabling the local licensing authority to make sure taxis operating in its area keep to the required standard above all safe for the driver and its passengers. They also require copies of the insurance policy for each taxi and that it provides sufficient cover.Not only for the taxi vehicle but also has adequate public liability cover so in the event of an accident you are covered. Most standard car insurance policies do not cover for hire and reward with taxi insurance this is included. So if you take the chance with and un licensed cab or taxi its unlikely the vehicle even if it is insured will not be covered as a taxi and you will not be insured! The vehicle is therefore operating outside the law. Once the local council licensing authority is satisfied the taxi has meet all its requirements it receives a numbered plate this shows the details of that authority the vehicle make model and number plate, some also show the colour.It also shows the permitted maximum number of passengers the taxi is allowed to carry at any one time and the license expiry.Please never ask a taxi driver to take more than his maximum number of passengers as they will risk losing his job and the vehicle will not be covered by insurance for that trip. In addition to the taxi the driver is also licensed by the local licensing authority.This requires the applicant driver to have a full medical check up on a regular basis.Also required is an enhanced criminal records or police check to ensure the taxi driver is a fit and proper person to hold a license. These details and medical are usually checked every three years.Anyone with a police criminal record for anything the licensing authority considers improper conduct will not be granted or will have his license removed should anything convictions be found between checks.This again protects the public travelling in taxis. Before a taxi driver is granted his or her license they also has to take a separate driving test designed for taxi drivers, that is in addition to having a full uk driving license.After all this the Taxi Driver is then tested on this local area knowledge.This is known in the taxi trade as the knowledge.Once the driver has satisfied all the requirements of the local authority they will be granted a license given a taxi drivers photo identity badge with their details on.This should be clearly displayed for passengers to see. So next time you intend to take a taxi journey please take a few extra seconds to check both the taxi vehicle has a current plate and the Driver has his photo ID badge.Both should be issued by the authority of the area in which you are hiring and up to date. If you are in any doubt wait for the next taxi it is always better to be safe than sorry.

One question that is not asked enough by people under stress is how to relieve stress. Unfortunately, people who are under stress tend to simply take it as a matter of course and simply accept its existence as though it was some sort of natural occurrence, or even a boon! Thus, people who are feeling the effects of stress do not actually take the time to notice that they are under stress and need relief. And when people are under stress, the first part of tackling the problem of how to relieve stress is actually realizing that there is stress that needs to be relieved. Are you having trouble concentrating? Are you struggling with a project that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere? Are you dealing with people who simply will not listen to sense? Are you frustrated with the way things are going? Congratulations, you have stress. Okay, this is not really something to be congratulated on, but it is important to understand this fact. After all, the beginning of the “How to relieve stress” problem begins with recognizing the warning signs. Then, once the warning signs are seen, healing can begin. The first thing to do when you want to know how to relieve stress is to learn how to walk away. That’s right, get up, go someplace else, and just cool off. It is often vital to hit that reset button and take a few deep breaths away from the action. The work will still be there when you get back, but being there beyond your breaking point will not get it done. An overabundance of things to do will not be helped by a clouded mind, so give your mind a break. Then, once your head is clear again, you can head back and bang out the projects with the greatest of ease. Or at least more ease than when you were sitting in front of a pile of work and wondering how you would get through it all. Okay, so you need a break, you have walked away, but you are still so stressed that you are ready to pop. Unfortunately, the previous lesson on how to relieve stress has not worked and you need something more powerful. Well, you need to pull out a better method. This means that you need to simply concentrate on nothing. When stress is way too much for a simple period of walking away, you need to practice an exercise in meditation. This means sitting down, closing your eyes, and thinking about absolutely nothing. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to think about nothing, so you should think about your breathing. Take a deep breath in and feel the air moving through your nostrils, down your windpipe, and into your lungs. Then push that breath out and feel it moving all the way up from your diaphragm, up into your lungs through your windpipe and out of your nostrils. Feel every motion of the air and notice how it feels as it exits. Imagine your tension flowing out with the air, evaporating into the endless space of the atmosphere, diluting into a complete dilution of oxygen. Think about nothing but breathing and notice every moment of the experience. Then, after about 3 or 4 breaths — or as many as it takes — open your eyes. You should feel as refreshed as though you just took a quick, refreshing nap. If you don’t repeat the exercise until your mind is clear and you are able to concentrate on your work again. These activities are very effective for a short period of time, but you will also need a method for relieving stress in the long run. After all, it is taxing to notice that you are under stress and it takes a great deal of will to make that leap and push away all those feelings. Thus, you need a way to relieve stress in the long term. In the long term, the best method to choose, when you want to know how to relieve stress, is to do what you always say you are going to do: eat right, exercise, and get enough sleep at night. Yes, we all say that we will do it, but none of us every actually follow through. But, if you eat right, you will feel better during the day, if you exercise, you will feel better during the day and sleep better at night, and if you sleep enough, you will actually clear away all that fogginess that can lead to stress.

Realistic Planning for Daily Meetings with several Suppliers When visiting suppliers you will want to make plans that best utilize the available time. This is even necessary if you are visiting suppliers in one of the large Chinese cities like Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Shanghai. These cities are so vast that you need a realistic plan if you are going to get much accomplished. Getting Around Hong Kong Most visitors underestimate some time factors that are actually out of their control. I will give you an example for meetings held in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is a city with a population of approximately 7 million people with an excellent public transportation system. Using the subway (MTR) is advisable and it should not take long for you to become a little bit familiar with it. If you know the closest MTR station to your destination, you will need to know which exit to take out of the station and then the street leading to your supplier’s office. The public yellow or green minibuses are best left to the locals. It is usually too complicated for visitors to become reasonably acquainted with them during a short stay. Once you arrive at your supplier’s office building, you need to get to the floor where your supplier’s office is located. Hong Kong is a modern city with many skyscrapers. Even after you locate the floor, it can be a small challenge finding their office. There can be as many as 20 offices on the same floor. The trouble at Lunch Time It can and does take considerable time to find supplier’s offices. Special precautions are needed if you have a 2:00 PM meeting in Hong Kong. Plan to arrive at least 15-20 minutes early because all elevators will be very crowded. At 2:00 PM the general lunch hour ends and everybody is trying to rush back to their offices at the last moment. Get there 15 minutes early and miss the rush. Knowing these details will help you to make the right plans. For instance, I prefer to arrange my first appointment after lunch at 2:30 PM instead of 2:00 PM when I am in Hong Kong. The Chinese love getting out of the office during lunch and really do not want to accept any meetings during that time. They are usually polite enough not to let you know this, but I suggest not trying to schedule meetings between 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM. Offices are now staggering work hours similar to Western societies. Part of the reason is to reduce traffic congestion. This can make it impractical to schedule an appointment before 10:00 AM. Unfortunately, any earlier and some of the people you want to attend will not have arrived at work yet. Lunch hours can start as early as 12:00 PM or 12:30 PM but that is an exception. As long as you honor the main lunch period between 1:00 P-2:00 PM everything will be fine. Keep in mind that taxis will be also difficult to catch during these times because some of the returning staff will also use taxis. Going the Distance in Hong Kong If you have a meeting in the Tsuen Wan district and your next meeting is supposed to be in Chai Wan, it will take you approximately one hour by taxi to get there. The distances in Hong Kong are considerable and take time to cover, even with their excellent transportation system. You need to consult a street map in order to avoid scheduling meetings with suppliers that are far apart from each other. My suggestion is that you contact the supplier you will be meeting with and ask them how much time you may need to get from your hotel to their place. Next, check with the second supplier that you will meet with to learn how much time you will need to reach them from your first supplier’s office. If you have meetings with suppliers in the industrial areas of Shatin, Fotan, Kwai Chung etc., you will need more time to reach your destination from downtown. On the return trip it may not be easy to find a taxi. Sometimes it does not make sense to use a taxi in certain areas. For instance in Kwun Tong. Most suppliers’ offices can be reached within a short walking distance and sometimes taxi drivers will even refuse to drive you if your next meeting is just a few blocks away. I think you get the point already. Knowing the exact locations of your suppliers’ offices allows you to tailor your meeting schedule without including unnecessary taxi rides or walking. Besides the time savings, it will also help to save substantial travel costs. The same applies to the larger cities in China. However, you have the added complication of communicating with your taxi driver. This will be very difficult if you do not have the address of your supplier’s office in Chinese with you. Your hotel can help you with that and also your supplier can send you a copy of his business card in advance. That will do the trick. Considering everything involved, you may not be able to make more than two meetings before noon and another two in the afternoon

Taxi driving in New York City, or any place is a service business. In the case of taxi driving, revenue is derived from one source, for two reasons. The basic rate of fare. This is how much a trip costs according to the posted price. This is usually controlled by a municipal organization. In New York City the rate of fare is controlled by the New York City Taxi & Limousine Commission. The other source of revenue comes from gratuities, or tips. This is, to some degree, controlled by the driver, based on the level of service he provides to his client. No two taxi drivers earn the same amount. Earnings averages run the gamut, from less than a hundred dollars per shift to as much as three hundred fifty dollars per shift. This is net earnings, after expenses, in the pocket, before taxes. What makes the difference? The key variables are: ? Time working per shift. ? Luck can play a small part. ? Talent or skill. ? Endurance ? Money spent on gasoline ? Time spent looking (cruising) for customers ? Safe Driving (A cab in the repair shop earns nothing) Like any profession, the tricks of the trade a taxi driver develops will help as he becomes an accomplished professional. KNOWING WHERE TO GO AND WHEN TO BE THERE: By knowing where to be and when to be there the scope of cruising a taxi driver does looking for fares can be kept to a minimum. No one can limit where the passenger wants to go. This makes knowing where to go and when to go there all that much more important. As soon as a taxi driver knows the passengers destination, he has time to plan where to point and drive the taxi after the fare in hopes of finding a new passenger as soon as possible. In some cases a fare will be standing waiting for the taxi as the passenger exits the cab. But this is not always the case. Theaters, transportation terminals, convention centers and hotels all generate demand for taxi service. Knowing which show gets out at what time, when planes and trains will arrive, or local movie schedules and even what time shifts change at certain businesses are part of being a professional taxi driver. GOOD SERVICE: Opening a door is not an outdated act of chivalry. It is the act of a conscientious chauffer aware of the comfort and value he is adding to the experience of his client. Can a taxi door be opened by a taxi driver every time a passenger gets in or out of a taxicab? Probably not. The street hail aspect of the industry the riding public is used to, has many passengers hailing, and quickly getting in to the back seat of the taxi with no help from the driver. That being said, it still allows for a large percentage of clients to have the door opened for them. The exact amount of extra income opening a door is worth in terms of revenue to one New York City taxi driver will never be known. But, how many of those doors needed to be opened? All of them! The only question is who does the opening. Knowing this is part of being a professional. GASOLINE: By limiting how far you cruise looking for a fare a taxi driver can conserve gasoline. this will reduce expenses and increase earnings. This can be done by knowing where and when to be places, such as the Theater District when shows let out or in the financial district when workers get off from work. This does not mean a driver should avoid cruising. It means a driver should have an idea of why he is cruising towards a certain area. There is no reason to cruise towards a warehouse district if all the buildings are closed. But, if there is a night club in one of the warehouses a taxi driver might want to check out the area and see if anyone needs a taxicab. TIPS The second largest part of the income equation for a taxi driver is earned from gratuities. It is the custom in New York City and most places to tip a taxi driver for good service. Some people tip very well and others less so. Nonetheless a taxi driver in New York City can expect to be tipped for most, if not all rides. DID I MENTION TIPS? As much as forty percent of a taxi driver’s net income can be derived from tips. If good service leads to better tips, then providing good service is a habit a professional taxi driver must develop. TRY SOMETIHNG DIFFERENT Little things that don’t cost much, or often cost nothing can be used to please your passengers and hopefully drive up income. Some drivers find free daily newspapers and give them to their customers. Some buy a stack of daily newspapers and leave them in the back seat of the cab. A small investment adding value to the customer’s experience. Some make sure to ask about a certain type of music the passenger might want to hear. One taxi driver in New York City gave his passengers peppermints. REMEMBER THE TIPS (To Insure Prompt Service) Bookings 350 Tips 100 Total 450 Cab Lease 130 Gas 50 Net 270 Tip Percentage of Net = 37% READ THE PASSENGER A driver’s ability to understand and communicate well with the passenger will create a platform of comfort from which good service can be enjoyed by the passenger. The value added to their experience is necessary for a passenger to be inspired to increase the tip. RECOGNIZE THE MOOD If a passenger seems disturbed about something it is probably not wise to engage them in a conversation. On the other hand if a passenger asks the driver about himself, the driver can then discuss a topic on which he is truly an expert. DON’T BREAK THE RULES Wherever there is a taxi service there is sure to be a regulator. A city, or State agency overseeing propriety, and safety. A driver must know the rules and follow them to avoid violations. Violation of rules by taxi drivers can cost a good deal in both fines and lost income. If suspension or revocation of a taxi driver license takes place, a taxi driver in New York City can lose his income all together. In 2007 dollars, a driver convicted of violations that result in the suspension of his license for thirty days can lose as much a $7,000. of income, plus $500. or more in fines. INCOME IS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE VIOLATION EQUATION On the other side of the violation equation is the tremendous earning potential of a New York City Taxi Driver. From under a hundred dollars per shift, to as much as three hundred fifty dollars per shift, and more brings thousands of people each year to New York City. BUT YOU GOTTA DO IT RIGHT Are you looking for a career change? Do you need a part time job or a weekend job? Are you looking for a Summer Job during college?

You’ve booked your holiday, your passports are up-to-date, visas are in order, so there’s only one thing left to think about: how are you getting to the airport? Gatwick airport is situated approximately 30 miles from the centre of London and roughly 45 miles from Heathrow airport. The options for travelling to Gatwick really depend on the direction from which you are travelling, however, Gatwick does have excellent road and rail connections - it was the first UK airport to combine air, rail and road transport services. Car If driving is your preferred choice, Gatwick airport is situated a short way off the M23, junction 9. Use an online route planner to plan your journey, remembering that sometimes the shortest route is not always the quickest. Book your airport parking in advance- don’t just turn up on the day as there’s no guarantee a space will be available, and this way is definitely the most expensive way to park. Check for planned road works the Highways Agency website gives advance notice of planned road works and also real-time traffic alerts. If you haven’t got Sat Nav, make sure you carry a map with you just in case there’s an accident and you need to divert from your planned route. Kiss and fly Kiss and fly is the enlisting of friends or family to drive you to the airport and then pick you up when your flight returns. Now this may seem like a very convenient method of getting to the airport, however, spare a thought for the poor driver who has to make twice as many journeys as you would if you just drove to the airport and parked yourself. Think of their time, the inconvenience if your plane is delayed, and their petrol costs. This has to be the most inconvenient form of transport for the poor driver, and the least environmentally friendly double the journeys means double the carbon emissions! Coach This has to be one of the cheapest options for travel to Gatwick. National Express, the Oxford Bus Company and easyBus are just some of the operators that offer regular coach services to Gatwick from more than 400 towns and cities in the UK. Direct services are also operated from Heathrow airport. As with airlines, coach companies have luggage restrictions too so check luggage allowances before booking. Most companies permit online booking and allow you to print off your own tickets, however, National Express also offer the option of having your tickets sent to your mobile, posted or picked up from a collection point. Bus Metrobus offers bus services to Gatwick Airport; however, size of luggage could be a problem so it is advisable to check with the company in advance. Train Gatwick airport has excellent train connections as Gatwick Station is linked directly to the South Terminal - a free transit train operates to take passengers to the North Terminal. Gatwick airport is only a 30 minute journey from London Victoria Station using the non-stop Gatwick Express, or just 35 minutes from Victoria using the regular rail service. Rail Services Currently there are six rail operators that serve Gatwick Airport directly: Southeastern, First Great Western, Southern, First Capital Connect, CrossCountry and Gatwick Express. With a vast train network throughout the UK it is possible to get a connecting service to Gatwick from almost anywhere. The National Rail Enquiries website has maps showing the complete rail network and there are various online sites to purchase your tickets, or buy them at your local station. Gatwick Express Gatwick Express trains operate every 15 minutes, offering a non-stop service to Gatwick from London Victoria Station. From Victoria Station, trains run between 03:30 and 00:30 daily, operating every 15 minutes between the hours of 05:00 and 23:45. Journey times take 30 minutes and 35 on Sundays. From Gatwick, trains operate between the hours of 04:35 and 01:35 trains depart every 15 minutes between 05:50 and 00:35. Motorbike There are dedicated bays in the car parks at Gatwick where motorcyclists can currently park free of charge. A word of warning though: motorbikes will be removed if parked in car parking bays. Taxi Gatwick Airport has its own official taxi provider, Checker Cars, which operates a quoted fare system you are quoted a fixed price at the time of booking. Fares can be paid at the time of booking or when you arrive at your destination. Checker Cars has their own booking offices in both the North and South Terminals. Although Gatwick has its own approved taxi company, it does not prevent you from using your own, favourite or regular taxi company, however, the pick-up and drop-off zones will be slightly different to the official taxi company’s.

Murcia Airport is located 45 Kilometers outside of Murcia city close to a small town called San Javier. Unfortunately public transport links from here are rather limited we advocate that an airport taxi is the easiest hassle free method of reaching your destination from here. It is perfectly sited to serve to southern Costa Blanca and Costa Calida regions, anyone travelling to the La Manga resort will find Murcia airport very convenient and by far the nearest. Being only 30 kilometers from La Manga the airport sees huge numbers of owners and holiday makers every year. Once you arrive at Murcia airport you will realize that there is a distinct lack of public transport. There are no train links and only 3 busses daily to Murcia town center. Taxis however are plentiful and are best booked before you arrive. This ensures you will pay a standard competitive price and wont spend time waiting when you arrive in Spain. Because of this relatively recent influx of commuters Murcia airport is taking steps to expand its facilities and terminal building making it an obvious choice for any one who want quick simple transport to Spain. Pre booked airport taxis will be waiting for you on your arrival. Having collected your luggage and passed through passport control you will exit the arrivals doors, at this point you will find your dedicated driver waiting for you holding a board with your name on it. At this point all you have to do is prove that you are yourself and accompany the driver to the car which will be located very closely to the terminal building. If your flight should be delayed the driver will be aware that you will be coming in late. You dont need to inform anyone this is because the drivers and booking company monitor your incoming flights. All drivers speak English and will already have your accommodation details. They will know exactly where they are taking you because you will have given the address of your holiday rental when you made your booking.

When flying into a major city like Chicago, you would be surprised how quickly a cab can get to the airport in order to pick you up. A lot of people, especially if they’re not used to the major metro centers, aren’t sure how much time they have to allow for a car to come to the airport and pick them up. The truth is, if you’re just going to avail yourself of the regular Chicago taxi service, then you won’t need much time at all for the taxi to come and get you. Most companies would recommend that, if you want to call for a cab from the airport, you shouldn’t need to allow for more than five minutes for the car to get there to pick you up. This is because there is no other location in a major city that cabs travel to as frequently as the major airport that serves the area. And, O’Hare in Chicago is certainly no exception. If you make your call immediately after you get your baggage, you should have just enough time to exit the terminal and make your way to the cab stand in order to meet your car. However, the Chicago taxi service also services the airport throughout the entire day. You are likely to have no problem simply walking out to the curb outside of your terminal and flagging down a car. At almost every hour of the day, the street level entrance to the terminals at this major airport is filled with cabs. The reason for this is that, often, an empty taxi will simply be sent to return to the airport because of the number of passengers constantly arriving and needing rides to various points throughout the city. The only time you might want to allow more time for your car to come pick you up is if you decide to order a limo or a private car service instead of a regular taxi cab. There is nothing wrong with ordering a fancier private car or a limo. In fact, many businessmen traveling to the city prefer this method of transportation. However, if you are doing so, you must realize that there are quite a lot fewer cars of this description. Because of this, it can be more expedient to book your ride in advance. Calling before your departure and letting them know your name and arrival time is the best way to ensure that a car is there to meet you upon your arrival.

The difference between taking a black cab at the end of the night or taking a private hire is often down to availability or cost. The real difference however is that when you take a licensed taxi there is piece of mind involved in that you can rest assured that the vehicle meets a certain standard as well as being driven by a taxi driver well versed in the area. The council is responsible for ensuring that all taxis meet certain quality standards. How well are they doing at policing this? More than 120 Blackpool hackney taxi drivers staged a slow-drive protest along the Promenade against the council’s approach to enforcement. It was the second time in a year they had taken to the streets. Quality crackdowns by councils in the Liverpool area have continued, including late night kerbside checks. While many operators support the need to enforce standards, others are angry about heavy-handedness and the frequency of tests. More than 120 Blackpool cabbies staged a slow drive protest along the promenade against the council’s approach to enforcement. Trevor Boaler, secretary of the Blackpool Licensed Taxi Operator said “The council is exceeding its powers. On a Friday night, with the help of police officers, they deliberately targeted older vehicles and removed plates, which is illegal.” Trevor said: “We’re now considering legal action.” However, Tim Coglan, head of Quality Standards for Blackpool Council, denied his men were acting illegally: “Authorised officers can test a vehicle at any time. We picked this time, because it reflects the business. Friday is the busiest night. But we also check during the week.” Tim said: “The proof is in the pudding. Since we started testing in June 2005 about 63 per cent of the vehicles had to be prohibited from the road, 34 per cent received defect notices, but only three per cent were found in order. That’s our justification.” In Derby a three-month inspection campaign by the city council resulted in 27 per cent of hackney and private hire licenses being suspended. The council found that 31 out of 113 taxis were not up to scratch. The most common fault was suspension. Hackneys performed worst, private hire cars did slightly better. Richard Smalley, for the council, told the Evening Telegraph: “We’ll seek to help and assist drivers where we can to ensure their vehicles meet our stringent test, but I make no apology for carrying out these enforcement checks.” Earlier last year 300 local taxi drivers went on a one-night strike against the strictness and frequency of the tests.

A common question asked of people with experience with a taxi service is how is the best way to tip a cab driver? For some people, the thought of having to calculate a quick tip on the spot is uncomfortable. They might be uncomfortable with the math or, often times, are just afraid of appearing too cheap by seeming to put too much thought into deciding how much to tip the cab driver. The first suggestion that an experienced rider of a taxi service will give you is that tips are expected. The fact is that tips are a large portion of how a cab driver earns his income so, whenever you hail a taxi, you should expect to leave a tip for your driver. However, there are a couple of different ways that you can determine how much you should tip and how to be fair. First off, if you decide to ride in a cab, you should always estimate your fair and ensure that you have at least ten percent more than what you are guessing it to be for a tip. Around fifteen percent of your fare is the normal rate, but ten percent should be considered a courteous minimum for a tip to be offered. For easy figuring, the route that most people take when tipping a taxi driver is to simply tell them to keep the change. For example, if your cab fare comes to a total of $17.50, simply tell the driver to keep the change from a twenty, and you can be confident that you left a fair tip for your taxi driver. On the other hand, if you happen to have a very short ride, or if the total gets too close to an even bill, you don’t want to tip your cab driver less than a dollar either. The taxi drivers do work hard and deserve to be compensated for their effort. Another method of deciding how much to tip your taxi cab driver is to simply do the math the way you would as if tipping in a restaurant. In this case, don’t be afraid to ask for your change back from the taxi driver and to tip out of that change back to them. A fifteen percent tip is what would be normal for an average cab ride with no bad or exceptionally good service. If your trip with a taxi service results in some kind of exceptional service from your cab driver, tack on a few extra dollars to the tip to show your appreciation.

It all started when my plane to Cebu was delayed by 5 hours. While my fellow-passengers around were acting like enraged volcanoes spewing lava, cursing the catastrophe that befell upon us?I smiled and closed my eyes. Instantly, I felt peace. I whispered, “Lord, you have a special surprise in store for me.” And in minutes, I discovered my gift. That special surprise was Ray, a man who would bless me with his life. He also gave me key business ideas that would double my income. He greeted me with a firm handshake and a friendly smile. “I watch you on TV,” he said, “and I text my family and friends to watch you.” Like me, Ray’s flight to Mindanao was delayed for 8 hours. (All the flights that day were delayed. The airport looked like a refugee camp with people sitting on the floor and crowds begging for food from the airline personnel.) I didn’t know why, but I sensed a connection with the man in front of me. Later on, I discovered why. As we found seats and ordered coffee, Ray shared with me the riveting story of his life. I was so swept away by his experience, I forgot all about my coffee. “I went to Bible School and became a Pastor,” he said. “I pioneered a small church.” But after being a Pastor for 3 years, tragedy struck. His wife lost a baby boy in her pregnancy. The trial caused Ray to think about his family more. “It’s lonely being a Pastor,” he explained. “The problems of my flock are all my problems. But my problems were only mine! So I asked my people to pastor their pastor too.” Slowly, he delegated his roles to his congregation as he felt a need to focus on his family?especially their financial needs. His joined corporate life. For 6 years, he worked for a big company as their Regional Manager for the entire Mindanao (Southern region of the Philippines). He was earning P50,000 a month (US$1000+), a big sum during that time. But at the end of the day, he was still broke. In fact, he was in debt to the tune of P1.2 Million (US$26,000+)?including a warrant of arrest. To survive and feed his children, the former Regional Manager became a Taxi Driver. It was an incredibly humbling experience. But he learned important lessons that would change his life forever. Rey was now only earning P350 a day?a far cry from what he was earning before. But it was here where he learned how to manage his money. It was here where he learned how to live within his means. It was here where he learned how to save. Ray said, “People like to manage what they don’t have. That’s why they’re poor. By borrowing for stuff they can’t afford. During that year as a Taxi Driver, I learned to manage what I had. And I was actually better off earning P350 a day than earning P50,000 a month! Because now, I learned to manage my money.” After one year of being a Taxi driver, he borrowed enough money to buy cabs and became a Taxi Operator. But that was only a transitional step to learn how to run a business. His real goal was to be in the “money” business. Ray wanted to own a bank. So his first step was to work in a Rural Bank?without asking for a salary. He simply wanted to learn. And 3 years later, when he learned enough, Ray built his own Rural Bank. Today, his Rural Bank is going strong. So far, after 7 years, the bank has given micro-loans to over a thousand people in his city, providing them with capital for their small businesses. And with 97% repayment efficiency! Because of this, his bank is transforming the lives of the poor. He teaches them the habits of saving, investing, and entrepreneurship. Ray explained, “I ask people, ‘Do you want to prosper? What do you have? You may not have money. But you have time. Not just time, but time to learn. So use that! Join an insurance company and be an agent. Or join a company and sell their product. The important thing is to learn?and from there, branch out. Don’t get a job to earn money. Get a job to learn! And don’t start a business to earn money. Get into a business to learn! The money will follow.” He continued, “Some people start a business and want to earn right away. But that’s not wise. Starting a business is like a slingshot. You have to pull back. That means clearing the way. Take time pulling back. Because when it’s time to release, you’ll be surprised that your business will rapidly shoot towards the target.” Ray is a Serial Entrepreneur. At the back of his calling card is a list of his other businesses: a construction company, a property management company, salons, restaurants?plus a few more. “I never manage my businesses,” he said, “I pass it on to people who can do a better job. I make them part owners. That’s why I can own many businesses.” As Ray spoke, it was though I was hearing myself preach. We both have the same beliefs about money. We’re both Preachers that address the practical needs of people. We’re both Serial Entrepreneurs. And we both are fighting poverty by teaching three things to the Filipino: (1) a practical spirituality, (2) a more positive financial mindset, and (3) financial literacy. Oh, one last thing: We both love our families. At the airport, I met Ray’s lovely wife and beautiful daughter with him. I sensed the happiness in his family. It was refreshing. That day, my catastrophe turned out to be a rich blessing. Not only for me, but everyone who’s reading this blog right now. Talking to Ray made me realize more than ever before that we should never tell ourselves, “I’m stuck where I am. My life will never change.” Keep dreaming my friend. God has a wonderful plan for your life. Pursue it with passion. May your dreams come true, Bo Sanchez PS. Have you ever thought earning through the internet?

The Prefecture of Messinia Messinia lays on the southern part of mainland Greece, now divided from the mainland by the Corinth Canal. The peninsula hosts some of the most important and impressive ancient sites in Greece. It has a warm winter, it’s not too hot in summer and boasts some of the best and cleanest beaches in the whole of Greece. Even in the height of the summer holiday season there are no more than a handful of people to be seen on them. The mountain landscape of the Messinian Mani is simple stunning and is dominated by Taygetos, one of the largest mountain ranges in the Peloponnese. Whereas the Messinian peninsular has rolling hills and fertile valleys considered to be the market garden and wine centre of Greece. Messinia is an ideal place to relax and go for walks. Wander off the beaten track into the old hill towns and discover the true beauty of the region. A world apart from the islands, the beautiful and sparsely populated the Peloponnese is a bastion of disappearing Greek village life.

The City of Kalamata Kalamata is positioned at the head of the crystal clear Messinian Bay, between the Mani and Messini peninsulas and Sparta to the north. This makes Kalamata an ideal base from which to explore the beauty of the surrounding areas. The capital and chief port of Messinia, Kalamata is the land of the Kalamatianos dance and the silk kerchief. Of succulent black olives, honeyed figs and the sesame-covered sweet called pastelli, which can all be sampled at the immense new market near the bus station. Kalamata market is a collection of meats, cheese, and fruit shops as well as a daily farmers market Kalamata has three districts; the seafront, the residential quarter with its strict grid plan and the old town with its wandering narrow streets. The seafront has all the attributes of a resort: hotels, cafes restaurants, ice cream parlours and bars, but it is fairly low key compared to other towns. The beach is clean and the water is clear and safe for swimming in. Another lovely attraction is the train park at the end of Aristomemous street. It has shady trees, cafes, a performance area, a duck pound, and ice cream parlour in the converted station. Antique trains are displayed on the tracks. Just off the water front is the Kalamata School of Fine Arts which exhibits the work of Greek Artists. The residential quarter was rebuilt after the 1986 earthquake that killed 20 people and left 12,000 homeless The charming old town is dominated by the 13th century Frankish fortress built by Geoffrey de Villehardouin which rises above Kalamata. On the north side of the citadel there is a small Byzantine church, dedicated to the Virgin of Kalomata (of the good eye), from which the town may have acquired its name. From the fortress you can survey the expanse of sea below with its sandy and pebbly shores or turn your gaze upon the deep green plain, the “happy land” of the ancients. The old city with its busy streets and shops reaches out underneath the fortress. Here you will find the Byzantine church of the Virgin Ypapanti and the convent of the Kalograies, where the nuns are famous for weaving and embroidering the Kalamata silks. There are many churches in town, the oldest being the historic church of Agii Apostoli (13th c.), where the Greek Revolution against the Turks was formally declared on March 23, 1821. And the Benaki Museum displays the archaeological remains from the War of Independence. It also presents a small collection of folklore and fine art exhibits and a library containing 60.000 volumes. Every summer cultural events like concerts featuring jazz, rock and classical Greek plays put on by the Kalamata theatre are held in the amphitheatre of the fortress. In the evening, the town comes alive, especially along the waterfront which is lined with tavernas, seafood restaurants and rotisseries serving local dishes and drinks, fresh fish, roast suckling pig and chicken, sausages, cheese, olives, retsina and ralki.

If you haven’t already been to Prague yourself then you will almost certainly have friends that have been and if you are reading this article you are probably planning a trip there in near future. There are plenty of other articles that will tell you where to visit, what to see, where to get cheap beer and how not to be ripped off by taxi drivers. This article is about the holiday letting market in Prague and how to get the most from it. When booking a city break or vacation in Prague most people immediately consider hotels with a recognisable brand. This is fine and you will no doubt have a great time staying there - but at a price! If 3 couples are travelling together and staying in 3 hotel rooms you could typically pay up to $600 plus taxes for the group - PER NIGHT! The same quality of accommodation in a Prague holiday apartment will normally cost $120 per night. Just think how much more beer, or wooden toys or boat trips down the Vltava you can buy with that! Where to Stay? For obvious reasons many people are attracted to the Old Town Square or the immediate vicinity to the Charles Bridge. If you are thinking about this then consider the following: Stag and Hen parties congregate in these areas and can be very noisy, particularly late at night. Czechs congregate here for key sporting events normally shown on Huge TV screens - check you dates carefully. Pickpockets and street prostitutes frequent these areas. Prague city centre is very small and most places are either within walking distance or are served by excellent public transport links (metro and trams). Hotels and Apartments are generally more expensive in these areas. There are many other areas of Prague that are quieter, cheaper and well connected to the rest of the city. One of the most popular areas in my experience is Vinohrady (the Royal Vineyard). The architecture is fantastic with a real caf?(c) society. It is a 10-15 minute walk away from Wenceslas Square and well served by public transport. Two outstanding new developments have recently been built in Vinohrady and there are many holiday apartments available. These are the Zvonarka and Korunni Dvur developments. The apartments are generally furnished to a 4 star standard with swimming pools and fitness facilities available either for free or a small charge. These are well worth considering over and above a small, drafty, noisy Old Town apartment. Other pitfalls There are thousands of apartments available for short term holiday and vacation rental. But choose your apartment carefully! Following entry to the Czech Republic there has been a great deal of investment into this market from outside of the Czech Republic. It is easier than ever before to buy and mortgages have become available to non-Czech nationals for the first time - and at reasonable rates. These are normally furnished to a high standard and in good, safe locations and add to the stock of quality Czech owned apartments. There are also a large number of ‘protected rent’ apartments that are sublet illegally. These are much older and the ‘owners’ spend much less on furnishings and maintenance because they are letting the flats illegally. Protected rents were intended to provide affordable accommodation to Czechs during the communist period and in the future these are expected to be phased out. But how can you tell what the apartment will really be like from a few thumbnail pictures? The best way is use a reputable website such as praguerental.com to choose your property. These apartments are all vetted and are in well furnished properties in safe, central locations. You can reserve the apartment with a small deposit and be sure of local English speaking support on arrival in Prague. Holiday Rental Checklist Know the TOTAL price of the booking at the time of booking an insist on email confirmation Agree Check in and Check out times in advance. You will normally be asked to check out earlier than a hotel so that the apartment can be cleaned in advance of the next guests arriving. It is always worth asking for a late check out. Most owners will agree to this if they have no guests arriving that day. Make sure you discuss this in advance though as the cleaner will need to be notified. Extras. Normally airport transfer can be added to the cost of the booking for reasonable rates. Owners prefer to know exactly where you are once you arrive rather than have you show up on the door step at a random time somewhere near to when you said you show up. Taking advantage of airport transfers will normally save you money and get you to your apartment faster. Ask about security arrangements.

What is a Green Hotel? Environment friendly properties taking initiative to implement practices that reduce energy and water usage are known as Green Hotels. Various programs that Green Hotels are participating in include: o Recycling programs, o Linen changing programs, and o Energy efficient lighting. Why should Hotels go green? As many hotels are appreciating or rather implementing the concept of going Green, it is important that everybody joins the team. Hotels use enormous amount of energy and so it becomes mandatory that hotels go for environmental friendly practices that conserve water and energy and reduce waste reduction. Making a Difference Next time when you go for booking your hotel room, look forward to find a green hotel at your place. A Green hotel can be found by checking the list issued by The Green Hotels Association. Be a Green Hotel Guest Going Green refers to using the resources in a conservative way. The following steps will help you be a Green Hotel Guest: ¢ Carry safety pins of different color when starting to pack for a holiday. Also carry reusable mugs and other items. ¢ Don™t let the staff change the sheets of your room daily. ¢ Attach a safety pin of different color to know which towel belongs to which family member. ¢ Turn off lights and equipments like T.V., air conditioner etc when leaving the room. ¢ Participate in any recycling effort promoted by the hotel. ¢ Take short showers and keep taps closed while brushing teeth. ¢ Turn off the exercising machines when done. ¢ If the hotel embraces green hotel practices, appreciate managers and employees. Encourage Hotels to go green The hotel in which you are staying may not be implementing the above mentioned practices. Guests can play a major part in making Hotels implement practices that help hotels go green. The suggestions from the guest side could be: 1. Implementation of linen reuse program 2. Use of fluorescent lighting 3. Use of low flow showerhead 4. Application of window film to reduce heating and cooling loads 5. Installation of thermostats 6. Use of recycled paper 7. Low flow toilets also help save both energy and water 8. Separation of wastes into degradable and non-degradable wastes 9. Use of refillable products like shampoos, cleaning agents also help you save money when brought in bulk 10. Installation of solar water heating system can save a tremendous amount of electricity 11. Use of bicycles instead of cars, taxis etc inside the hotel can reduce pollution to a great extent 12. Educating staff about the Go Green Campaign by offering brochures to spread awareness for Green Hotels Guests do make a difference to Hotels as the main motto of Hotels is to customer satisfaction. Guests can help hotels to go green every time they travel. Green practices will help in energy and water conservation and make the Earth a better planet to live. Go Green Campaign should be followed even in Homes and not just in Hotels as it will make your homes more energy efficient. Hotels should implement the Go Green Campaign because satisfied hotel guests help to encourage Tourism.

Anyone who has ever visited Venice will know the problem: the Grand Canal is horrendously, perilously overcrowded. Gondolas rear and plunge alarmingly in the wake of vaporetti powering from one bank of the canal to the other. Water taxis swerve round lumbering barges, laden with everything from tourist baggage to household garbage. And, every so often, streaking through the chaos comes a river ambulance or police launch. Now, the gondoliers, the most traditional of Venice’s canal-users, have had enough and have announced a demonstration next Sunday against the congestion of the waterways. ‘We can’t go on like this,’ said Roberto Lupi, a spokesman for the gondoliers. ‘Urgent measures are needed to put an immediate stop to this insane traffic.’ The boatmen say they are taking action, not just for their own safety, but for that of the thousands of foreign and Italian tourists who pay to drift through the watery city aboard a gondola. The decision to protest was taken after a one-year-old Dutch child came close to drowning last week when he and his entire family were tipped into the Grand Canal following a collision between a gondola and a vaporetto. Seven people have died in accidents along the two and a half mile canal since 1992. According to the head of the gondoliers’ association, Franco Vianello Moro, waterborne traffic in Venice has soared 30 per cent in the past two years. On an average day some 2,000 vessels now use the Grand Canal. The Mayor of Venice, Paolo Costa, acknowledged that ’something needs to be done’. But it will not be easy to find a solution, because so many vested interests are in play. Venice’s licensed gondolas - there are more than 400 - account for only 6 per cent of its canal traffic. In addition, there are about 150 vaporetti and more than 300 water taxis. On top of that come public service vessels and an unknown number of privately owned boats, most of them used to transport goods. Costa said a solution would depend on everyone concerned making compromises. But, so far, there was no sign of that happening. ‘All that anyone thinks of is defending his or her own position and attacking that of the others,’ he complained. The city council itself, though, is coming under critical scrutiny for allowing the crisis to reach this stage. It has not so far clamped down on unlicensed ‘pirate’ water taxis which account for about one of ten of those who ply their trade on the lagoon. The city authorities recently built a string of cabins at canal junctions from which police officers could identify and penalise offenders. They have been equipped with air conditioning so that the officers do not suffer in the oppressive heat of a Venice summer. But when a reporter from the newspaper La Repubblica last week travelled the length of the Grand Canal he found every single cabin empty. Meanwhile the gondoliers are aiming to create maximum effect by staging their demonstration on the day of the annual Regatta Storica, a nationally televised event in which the gondoliers race lighter, faster gondolini . Already a huge banner has gone up in Saint Mark’s Square bearing the words “Stop the Wave-making Engines!”. The war of the Grand Canal has begun.

The best way to fix your money problems is to know precisely where you stand with money. The following ten tips on budgeting will demonstrate to you how to take command. Tips On Budgeting One ? The Advantages Of Budgeting The most important reason to construct and follow a budget is to put you in the driving seat. This will also help to reduce all the stresses you have about your finances. A further benefit is that it will help you control and reduce your debts if you have any, plan for the future and save money. Tips On Budgeting Two ? How To Plan Your Budget To start off your budget plan don’t just think about your present salary and expenditure. You need to plan for your future and include savings plans or other interest earning schemes that will provide for you in the longer term. Tips On Budgeting Three ? Getting Your Budget Started Your budget must record monthly salary and expenditure and allow you to plan for the months ahead. Being aware of how much income you receive on a monthly basis is usually much simpler to record than all of your monthly outgoings. Before you create your budget gather all of your check account statements for the last twelve months and also your credit card records. You need to do this so that you don’t omit irregular payments (every three months or yearly). Tips On Budgeting Four ? Now Make Your Budget Use the first column of your worksheet to record your salary at the top and then below list all of your regular payments. As well as the most obvious payments such as mortgage, utility bills, loan repayments and so on list all of the small payments that you make on a regular basis such as commuting, coffee and lunches, dining in restaurants and mobile phone costs. Tips On Budgeting 5 ? Positive Or Negative? When you believe you have included everything then you are ready to do the math and see if you have a positive balance afterwards or a negative one. A lot of you will find you have a negative balance which shows you are spending more than you earn. If you are in this position don’t worry. The truth will set you free. Tips On Budgeting 6 ? Look Closely At Your Outgoings Now You need to take a careful look at all areas of your spending. Are there items you can cut out or reduce your spending on? Of course there are. Eating out, a newspaper everyday, daily coffee take outs, luxury expenditure, too many cell phone calls, taxis where you should have got the bus or subway, hopping in the car for trips around the corner when you should have walked or used cheaper means to get there, the countless cable or satellite channels that you pay for and never watch ? the list is never ending. Set yourself a target to drive out all unnecessary spending ? don’t go for 30% but 100%. Even if you get close to this target you will be surprised at how much you will save over time. Tips On Budgeting 7 ? Monitor Your Budget Regularly There is no point in creating a budget and using it once. You need to update it frequently with items you forgot, unscheduled payments, salary increases and so on. You can also use it to control future spending. Give this a try ? work out what your total outgoings for the week ahead should be in terms of shopping, traveling and cash spending and then withdraw precisely that amount of money at the beginning of the week and use it. You will likely find that you will cut out even more unnecessary spending as it will be really painful to spend the cash. Tips On Budgeting Eight ? Use Your Budget To Plan For Your Future Another benefit of creating a budget is planning for your future. You can schedule expenditure for savings, retirement plans, your next vacation, next car purchase, a bigger home, your children’s education and even a second honeymoon. No matter what your dreams for the future are you can make them happen with a well thought out budget. Tips On Budgeting Nine ? Focus On Earning More Money Don’t only focus on cutting back on expenditure, but consider how to increase your earnings. There are a multitude of ways that you can achieve this ? more overtime, another part time job, have a yard sale, sell all the items you no longer want or need on online auctions or start a business from home. By concentrating on increasing your earnings then you will become so busy that time will not be available to visit the shops and spend your money on things that are not really needed. Tips On Budgeting Ten ? Make Your Budget Now You will experience a tremendous feeling of relief and pride after you have created your budget and finally have control over your finances. Don’t be like most people who are not in control and have no clue where their money is being spent. Even if your budget is negative, you now have the power to turn this around. These tips on budgeting will help you if you take action ? so create your budget now!

By Linda Orlando In the online world of personal blogs, it’s easy to get bored with reading the same old stories about college life, nightclub adventures, parenting challenges, and a wide variety of hobby pursuits. When you tire of the “same old, same old” blog rolls, you can hope into Melissa Plaut’s blog for a real glimpse of adventure. Plaut is a cab driver in New York City, home to over 40,000 taxi drivers. Less than 1% of those drivers are women, so Plaut’s blog offers a fairly unique perspective on a career that has been a fixture of Big Apple daily life for nearly a century. Writing about her experiences and posting pictures of her various encounters with fares and situations in the city, Plaut brings humanity and emotion to a job millions of people in the city see as just a necessary evil. She describes the locker room where the drivers gather to await the beginning of shifts and describes her interactions with the other cabbies, almost all of them men. During the grueling 12-hour shifts and traffic snarls she endures, Plaut eats brings peanuts for snacking in the cab and stops for hot dogs for meals. By the end of a shift her fingernails are black from opening doors, loading luggage, and handling money all day. Plaut grew up in suburban Pomona, New York, with parents who were both teachers. She attended the University of New Mexico, graduating in 1997 and moving to New York City. After working for several years as a writer and copy editor at an advertising agency, she was laid off about a year ago. She couldn’t reconcile herself to returning to office work, so she decided to stop agonizing over what she was going to do with her life. Instead, she got a job driving a cab. Although she hopes it isn’t going to be a lifelong job, she’s treating the experience as an adventure. Plaut spent about $400 going through the tedious licensing process, which includes a medical exam, three 8-hour classes of taxi school, an English proficiency exam, being fingerprinted, and passing a final test and receiving her license. Driving a taxi isn’t the easiest job in the world, and Plaut considers it a means to an end, not a career move. One thing that is helping her to cope with the stresses of the job is being able to chronicle them in her blog, which she started in August. Reading about her adventures gives her site visitors?some of whom are nowhere near New York City?a chance to experience the Big Apple firsthand without ever going there. Her website gets nearly 1000 hits on some days, and even more now that her blog has been written about by the Associated Press and spotlighted on an ABC news program. The sights, sounds, and people Plaut writes about bring the city to life in a way that sometimes is more vivid than actually being there. Passengers’ stories are diverse and colorful, such as the young girl traveling to the hospital because she had a sea urchin stuck in her foot, which she had picked up while vacationing in Puerto Rico. Or the young suburban couple who wanted to smoke a joint in the cab while they were “waiting for the mushrooms to kick in.” And just after the Red Sox beat the Yankees in the World Series, a couple got in her cab with the woman obviously in distress. The woman was sobbing, saying “Oh my God?I can’t believe it, I just can’t believe it.” Concerned, Plaut asked her if everything was okay, and the woman tearfully replied, “Oh yes! We’re Red Sox fans!” Plaut says she has never been really frightened by a passenger, but traffic accidents do scare her. Once her driver’s side mirror was whacked by a passing city bus, and once she saw another cab get hit by an 18-wheeler. Last month one of her posts detailed a high-speed car chase she “unwittingly drove into” while bringing a tourist into the city from the airport. “When my heart finally started beating again,” her post says, “I turned to my passenger and said, ‘Welcome to new York!’”
