With tips and hints, you can put away Ace Parking additional money on the purchase, very.
Most vehicle motorbike shops work together with you about the charges of your car. Because of this you can hammer out this relation to just about any choose. To take some action, make time to discover about it is possible to concerning the model you plan to obtain before you even achieve the ton. Compare and contrast options around several disorders.

This article presents some new estimates of the degree of returns to scale for European regional manufacturing, for the period 1986—2002. To obtain these estimates, the article makes use of a Verdoorn law framework, estimating both demand- and supply-side versions of the law. Estimation is further embedded within a spatial econometric framework that allows for both ``substantive'' and ``nuisance'' sources of spatial autocorrelation. The former arises from cross-regional spillovers in the growth process, while the latter is a result of the use of the administrative NUTS1 definition of regions. Whereas the demand-side version of the Verdoorn law yields estimates of substantial increasing returns, the supply-side version is unable to refute the hypothesis of constant returns. It is argued, however, that the demand-side version is to be preferred on a priori grounds. The article also considers the static-dynamic Verdoorn law paradox and successfully confirms a recently proposed explanation of this paradox.

Fun facts about Spain
Spain's diverse history, landscapes and pockets of culture make this country a fascinating destination.
While you may associate Spain mainly with its delicious tapas, stunning beaches, and risky running of the bulls, the country also holds plenty of mystery. Below you can fill up on some lesser-known facts before you visit.

TRAVEL AWARE – STAYING SAFE AND HEALTHY ABROAD (foreign office travel advice)
The Eiffel Tower was almost Spanish
Initially, the Eiffel Tower was intended for Barcelona, but Spain rejected the proposal, believing the monument would not flatter the skyline.
While Paris ended up with the iconic feature, Barcelona still has plenty of famous structures to its name. The artist Antoni Gaudi beautified several of the city's major sites including Parc Guell and the Sagrada Familia cathedral. The latter is so intricate, it is still under construction today.
Olive oil is the number one export
The next time you cook with olive oil, you can thank Spain for that tasty dish, this European country produces nearly half of the world's supply each year. More than 1.5 million tonnes are pumped out of the country, primarily from the southern region of Andalusia.
They invented the stapler
The very first known stapler was made in the Basque region of Spain for France's King Louis XV. The grandson of the extravagant Sun King also loved decadence, which is probably why every single staple was engraved with his royal emblem.
The tooth fairy never visits
When Spanish children lose a tooth, instead of envisioning a visit from a shimmering fairy, they dream of a small mouse. In the same way as our tooth fairy, this mouse, called El Ratoncito Perez, collects their teeth from beneath their pillows in exchange for small gifts of money.
The Spanish love their downtime
It's estimated that Spaniards spend 16 hours of every day on leisure activities, from socialising and relaxing to eating and sleeping. They also have more bank holidays than most of their European neighbours, with up to 14 each year.
Part of their downtime is the Spanish siesta – literally meaning nap – observed in most villages and even some larger cities. Residents take a one to two hour break in the heat of the afternoon to rest up before finishing their days, often a little later than us Brits.
History and world heritage abound
Spain has 44 recognised UNESCO World Heritage Sites, ranking third in the world just after Italy's 49 and China's 45 sites.
From pre-historic rock art to medieval cities and stunning natural parks, they even have an annual festival, Fiesta de los Patios, that was awarded the coveted status in 2013. You'll find Spanish history interwoven with these cultural landmarks, plus plenty of items to add to your must-see list.

In the Palm of Your Hand: Sexual Health Literacy 2.0
Participants attending the 10th Gay Men's Health Summit spent two days discussing health literacy in areas such as sexual health, mental health, and cancer. Assessing and enhancing the health literacy of gay men, providers, and organizations was a common theme. Of chief concern was the impact of new technologies on gay men's sexual health: How should we change the way we talk about HIV in light of the shifting landscape of prevention and care? What role does emerging digital technologies play? These were two questions I had in mind as I listened and observed.
Increased emphasis on biomedical technologies in HIV prevention requires us to think carefully about how we communicate risk. Both CATIE's James Wilton and Concordia's Mark Gaspar discussed risk as contextual, and identified risk information as playing only one role in shaping sexual decision-making. CATIE's Len Tooley offered his framework to help providers give more accurate and inclusive messages to their clients. Prompting a lively discussion in the room, it soon became clear that our collective understandings of risk are not only about what "science says". They are also subjective and highly variable. The challenge for providers and organizations, then, is to be able critically assess and translate scientific information for gay men that also resonates with their lived experiences.
To do so, we also need to pay attention to how gay men make sense of their biomedical and social realities. AIDS Vancouver's Brent Sawlor presented The New Face of HIV campaign, an initiative designed to raise awareness about viral load suppression and promote undetectability as a new serostatus (1). Presentations about PrEP awareness by Glasgow's Ingrid Young, OHTN's Barry Adam and CATIE's Ed Jackson found low awareness, varying levels of literacy, and general ambivalence about it as an HIV prevention strategy. This suggests that health literacy is more than about simply sending messages and assuming that people simply "get it"; we must also pay close attention to how gay men understand scientific information and enact it.
One place where this can happen is the Internet. Matt Taylor and the HUSTLE team presented an evaluation from their Netreach program, identifying it as an important venue to support the needs of male sex workers and vulnerable youth. Nathan Lachowsky presented Ontario data from the Cruising Counts survey, suggesting that 50% of men reported feeling satisfied by the sexual health information they found online.
Data from the 2011 Sex Now Survey confirms this (2). The Internet is not only a popular venue for sex-seeking (nearly 90%), but is also where many seek sexual health information. Nationally, 65% of men reported doing so, with rates highest in BC (68%) and lowest in the Territories (48%).
Results also suggest that the Internet remains an urban-centric and youth-driven phenomenon. Nationally, 66% of urban gay men reported using the Internet for sexual health information, compared to 60% of men in rural settings.
In rural settings, men in Quebec (57%), PEI (50%), Saskatchewan (49%), and the Territories (36%) reported rates of online sexual health information seeking lower than the national average.
Looking up sexual health information also varies depending on age, with 75% of young gay men and 62% of gay men over the age of 30 reporting this activity.
The question is, what are they learning? (see my previous post as a health literacy refresher). Data from the 2010 and 2011 Sex Now surveys suggest that while most gay men demonstrated high levels of basic or functional literacy regarding HIV risk and prevention, levels of interactive or critical literacies could be better supported (3). From a functional perspective, 65% of respondents knew that ARVs can suppress viral load, and 80% knew that bottoms face a higher risk of HIV acquisition.
Fewer gay men in the sample demonstrated interactive literacies, the kind relevant for empowering individuals to take control over their sexual health. Less than a third were aware of HIV prevalence among the community. Less than half were aware of advances such as rapid and early HIV tests.
Findings also suggest lower levels of critical awareness regarding the political issues that shape gay men's health. Less than half were aware that there is no population census data for sexual minorities, that gay men are underrepresented in health policy, and that the epidemic among the community has not significantly declined. While information appears to be perpetually at the tips of our fingers and in the palms of our hands, how is it that our understanding of ourselves and our health as political and tangible remains out of our reach?
If there is one takeaway from all of this it is that both technologies and health literacy reveal things that we already know. Biomedical innovations, whether in the form of PrEP, ARVs, or advances in HIV testing, offer us a sense of certainty and autonomy in a world where things can feel up in the air and beyond our sense of control. Scientifically speaking, a "pill a day (may) keep HIV away", but the social reality is that it requires much more than that. Health literacy in this case tells us that the success of testing and treatment depends on interpersonal, social, and political modes of support from providers, communities, and public institutions.
We also know that the hopes and promises attached to the Internet as a "great equalizer" come from a world of persistent inequity and discrimination. As I've suggested previously, health literacy brings us back to the social determinants of health. Age and geography, for example, influence how we seek sexual health information online. That Internet health literacy also depends on education and income suggests that the online/offline divide is not nearly as distinct as we'd once imagined.
However, focusing on the intersections between health literacy and the Internet also provides opportunities to enhance the work we do. The Internet offers us a firsthand view of how people with varying levels of HIV literacy create meaning, debate scientific evidence, react to new biomedical developments, and learn together. In turn, we learn about what people know while also learning what people think they know.
The Internet also provides alternative ways for people to engage with sexual health messaging. Web videos from organizations like the Health Initiative for Men, for example, provide informal kinds of education that start with the lives and experiences of gay men themselves (4). The rise of online campaigns addressing social determinants like HIV stigma are also promising, with Living Positive Victoria's E.N.U.F. campaign and the Los Angeles-based Stigma project as examples (5,6). These interactive and participatory modes can help support the various kinds of literacies required to support the health and well-being of gay men.

What is a Signing Service and a Notary Public Loan Signing Agent Database?
I'm frequently asked, "What exactly is a signing service? And what is the difference between a signing service and signing agent database?"
You constantly hear me say that being a notary signing agent is the best way to make money because you get loan signings simply by location. Just like the closest gas station gets your business, the closest signing agent to a borrower gets the loan signing.
It's almost too good to be true. Your entire loan signing career could be without having to sell, prospect, or make cold calls to market yourself. You literally wait for a call, text, or email asking if you have time for a signing and you get paid $100 on average for an hour-long appointment.
So the question is, why is this possible? How does it all work?
This is all possible because of something called signing services. Signing services are companies that market themselves to escrow companies, mortgage companies, and real estate agents to fulfill their loan signing appointments.
Once the signing service has gained a mortgage professional as a client, the mortgage professional will email the signing service that they have loan documents ready for a borrower to sign. That is when the signing service will call, text, or email the closest signing agent to the borrower's location.
You can think of the signing service as a broker. They act as the middleman between people that have loan signings (escrow officers, mortgage officers, and real estate agents), and people that can do loan signings (notary public loan signing agents).
For doing the work of getting the loan signing from the mortgage professional and arranging the appointment with the signing agent, the signing service takes a piece of the signing fee.
The signing service, on average, takes about 1/3 of the signing fee and gives the signing agent the rest. As an example, if a signing fee is $150, the signing service would take $50 and give $100 to the loan signing agent as their fee. Once again, this is an average, some pay more and some pay less.
Now you know what a signing service is.
So the next question is, how do signing services find signing agents to give these signings to?
The answer is, they use signing agent databases.
So, what is a signing agent database? The best way to understand signing agent databases is by thinking of Yelp.
Picture this: you're hungry. You want a restaurant. You open up Yelp. You type in a zip code and a list of restaurants pop up near that zip code.
That is exactly how a signing agent database works. But instead of searching for a restaurant they are searching for a signing agent.
Signing services use signing databases to find loan signing agents by zip code.
The signing service types in the zip code of where the loan signing will take place and a list of signing agents pop up - exactly as restaurants would on Yelp.
And similar to the restaurants listed on Yelp, signing agents are listed in order of proximity to the signing location.
The signing service will then reach out to each signing agent by phone call or text based on location until someone agrees to fill the order.
There's no catch. That's it. The first agent that answers and is available gets the loan signing. And that's why this is the best part-time income out there. No sales, no marketing, just a phone call and you make hundred dollars for an appointment that takes about an hour.
Some signing services will send a mass text message to all the signing agents who live closest to the signing address and the first one to respond that they are available gets the signing.
All you have to do is reply as fast as possible with your smartphone.
The signing service markets themselves to the mortgage professionals.
The mortgage professional gives the loan signing assignment to the signing service.
The signing service finds a notary signing agent that lives closest to the signing via a signing agent database.
And the first available signing agent gets the signing.
If you want to learn how to make great money in an industry that doesn't require any sales, working on your own schedule, take my course.

A Boy Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. Donald Trump is none of these things, but he is the President of the United States (don't remind me), and so he got to address the annual Boy Scout jamboree this past week in West Virginia. And what transpired was a speech that many observers said was not unlike the sort of speech Adolf Hitler used to give boys in the Hitler Youth, the Third Reich's version of Scouting.
Trump, in short order, bashed Barack Obama and attacked his predecessor, a former Boy Scout, for not addressing a jamboree in person (Obama addressed the 2010 jamboree by remote), and he also coaxed the boys into booing his arch-nemesis Hillary Clinton, giving children with Y chromosomes license to lash out at adult without one. And the hated Democrats weren't the only targets of Trump's barbs. He chided Attorney General (and Eagle Scout) Jeff Sessions for recusing himself in the Russia investigation and not backing up the President - not by name, but by riffing on the Scouting credo.
"As the Scout Law says, a Scout is trustworthy, loyal - we could use some more loyalty, I will tell you that," Trump said as a veiled reference to Sessions' rare moment of integrity.
The Boy Scouts certainly weren't prepared for this.
But Randall Stephenson, president of the Boy Scouts of America, should have been. Stephenson, who is also the chief executive officer of AT&T, knew that Trump couldn't keep politics and petty grievances out of his speeches, yet he invited him to speak anyway. Needless to say, the Boy Scouts - already regarded as an organization out of step with the times for its culturally conservative values - are under fire for letting Trump come and speak to "the little fellows," and some parents are threatening to pull their little fellows out of the organization.
The Scouts have survived - barely - charges of homophobia and the controversy of support from the Mormon Church (which has recently pulled support for the Boy Scouts' teen programs in response to, of course, the Boy Scouts' efforts to accommodate gays). They're going to have a tough time recovering from this.

Mattereum, perhaps the world's weirdest and most daring startup, intends to own literally everything
Jon Evans	@rezendi / 3 years
How's this for eyebrow-raising? In London, for the last year and a half, a team of lawyers, cryptographers, software engineers, and/or former military consultants have been brewing a bizarre and/or brilliant plan for a bridge between the blockchain and the real world — a system whose success is directly proportional to the extent to which it achieves legal title over every physical object in the world.
Wait. Let me explain. Their name is Mattereum, and they are not Bond villains seeking to conquer the planet. Rather, they are trying to bridge the gap between programmable blockchain "smart contracts" and actual legal contracts. As you might imagine, that gap consists of an almost infinitely knotty tangle of legal precedents, gray areas, and jurisdictions.
Mattereum has came up with a remarkable way to sever this Gordian knot. A legal concept universal across almost all jurisdictions is that assets have owners, who can decide (within legal limits) how to dispose of them. If registrars of the Mattereum network are granted legal title over assets, the thinking goes, they can then establish on-chain smart contracts with which physical assets can be programmatically bought, sold, rented, assigned, and partitioned — and use their ownership of these assets to resolve disputes and enforce those resolutions.
That all sounds pretty abstract. Let's talk about some real-world examples. Their flagship object right now is a Stradivarius violin valued at $9 million. Assigning legal title over that violin to one of Mattereum's registrars (say, Mattereum itself) which then licenses control via a set of smart contracts (say, on the Ethereum blockchain) means the violin instantly becomes not just a physical asset but a digital one, which can now be programmatically tokenized and sold to multiple investors — and also means that other contractual restrictions regarding its use can be required and enforced, such as that it be played for the public X times a year in Y countries, rather than locked perpetually into a vault.
Similarly, artists could sell their work to consortiums of investors with the enforceable requirement that their art be displayed in galleries open to the public for at least 25% of every year, built-in digital interfaces for galleries and museums to book that time, income percentages allocated for foundations and to the artist themselves, and so forth. And, of course, in passing, the art's provenance is maintained, too.
Could you do all this already, via a whole lot of legal paperwork followed by a whole lot of glacially-paced lawsuits when disputes inevitably arose? Sure. But to quote their summary white paper (PDF), which is very worth reading:
Clichés like "data is the new oil" conceal a fundamental truth: efficient discovery of availability and price radically changes the value of assets. Auctions on eBay gave value to enormous seas of illiquid assets … Some classes of illiquid assets, such as idle cars and briefly empty flats, found markets through Uber and Airbnb, liberating billions in value … the pattern is very clear: assets with a proper digital interface and history are more valuable than assets without them.
Mattereum boasts an impressive team led by Vinay Gupta, the mad-or-visionary-depending-on-who-you-talk-to global resilience guru turned Ethereum launch coordinator turned CEO, and including Ian Grigg, inventor of the Ricardian contract. And, of course, a lawyer or three. Obviously whole clouds of question marks still hover around them, notably regarding just how these smart contracts will intersect with the existing legal world(s), and how to establish trust in asset registrars to not abuse their legal title, or neglect their responsibilities — a trust which will need to rival or exceed that which accountholders have in banks.
But, like Ethereum itself, this is still a wildly ambitious, genuinely innovative, and deeply weird project; that's much to admire. Restructuring the concept of physical asset ownership to include programmatic contracts may seem like a subtle change, but it's one which could conceivably have massive structural repercussions and unlock enormous amounts of currently untapped potential. It's early baby-iterative-steps yet, of course, with a panoply of pitfalls on all sides; but it's big and bold and hopeful, and it just might do a lot of good.

Police 'extremely hopeful' of finding missing of Chelmsley Wood schoolboys 20 years on
David Spencer and Patrick Warren. s
Lauren Clarke 5th Jan, 2017
THE FATES of Chelmsley Wood schoolboys David Spencer and Patrick Warren still remain a mystery, 20 years after their disappearance.
The boys, aged 13 and 11 respectively, were last seen on Boxing Day 1996.
They were spotted playing on the ice at Meriden Lakes during the day and then riding around the area on Patrick's red bicycle he had received for Christmas from his family.
Just after midnight of Boxing day night into December 27 they went into the former Shell petrol station at Pine Square, which has since been demolished, where they asked the cashier for biscuits because they were hungry.
That was the last sighting of the youngsters.
But the senior investigating officer in charge of the case, Detective Chief Inspector Caroline Marsh, has said she is committed to finding the boys and bringing peace to their grieving families.
"I'm extremely hopeful there will be a resolution to this," Det Ch Insp Marsh said.
"More so, for David and Patrick's family – they desperately want closure and want to know what happened to them and they need to be able to put this matter to rest and move on with their lives.
"At the moment they can't do that, so more than anything I want to be able to locate those boys and find out what happened."
Det Ch Insp Marsh said officers still receive phonecalls from well-meaning people member of public providing suggestions as to what happened to Patrick and David, or where there bodies may be buried.
Senior investigating officer in charge of the case, Detective Chief Inspector Caroline Marsh. 52.016.004.sol.jm2
On each occasion, she said, the information is assessed and a decision made whether to follow up on any lines on enquiry.
But officers and the boys' families have both come to the conclusion that the youngsters are likely to be dead.
Det Ch Insp Marsh added: "I believe it would be near impossible for an 11-year-old and 13-year-old to disappear 20 years ago and no trace of them be seen in the NHS system, the social services system – it is just not possible.
"Whatever happened to those boys, I believe they are deceased.
"Whether that is the result of an accident and their bodies have never been found, or as the result of a criminal act they are both possibilities."
In 2006, convicted child killer Brian Lunn Field was questioned over the disappearance of the boys.
Field, who murdered and raped Surrey schoolboy Roy Tutill in 1968, had been living in the Chelmsley Wood area at the time Patrick and David disappeared.
But he denied any involvement in the case and police have no evidence at this time to suggest he is involved.
In 2003, a 37-year-old man was arrested in connection with the boys' disappearances but he was later bailed and has never been charged.
Urging anyone with information to come forward so the mystery can be solved, Det Ch Insp Marsh said: "Tell us where the boys are – if you're not responsible for what happened to the boys, but know what happened to them, please come and tell us.
"We will judge whatever information you have and make the necessary inquiries.
"But more than anything we need to find the boys for their families."

While many gamers say that they don't like the new format of Steam's regular sales which has seen the end of daily and flash deals, the result of the sale says something completely different. According to Steam Spy, the year-to-year sales of the Steam Summer Sale suggests that gamers will more than happily take a discount with revenue increasing by almost 50% from the 2015 sale.
The 2015 edition of the Steam Fall/Thanksgiving/Black Friday sale is just underway. For gamers, it's kind of like early Christmas. You can get deep discounts on those games that you wanted to buy at $60 but held off knowing that this day would come.
There will be a change for this year's fall and winter sales that you might have already noticed. Last week, Valve sent notice to publishers that there would be no daily deals or flash sales during the sale. Instead, the discount they set will be fixed for the duration of the sale.
As promised, I've updated the Encore Sale post with some of the hidden encore deals. I added 37 sales to the list today and I'm pretty sure that a little bit of digging will reveal a whole pile of additional deals. And I compiled some of the cool hidden deals found by the folks at /r/GameDealsMeta. That means there are even 50 more deals on the list today that yesterday. See? I promised more and I can deliver.
One little omission from the hidden encore deals that I should note. I didn't list the discount for The Elder Scrolls Online even though it's apparently an all-time low price on Steam. Word is that Bethesda has dropped the six-month subscription option which many people are taking as a sign that a switch to a free-to-play model is imminent. Take that rumour for what you will. I wasn't inclined to buy it before and I'm probably going to hold out even longer now.
It's encore time for the Steam Holiday Sale. For the next two days until 12:59 PM EST on January 2nd, it's the encore of the best deals during from the past two weeks of this Steam sale.
There are a lot of deals here so I didn't have time to get through all of the franchises to look for hidden deals. In tomorrow's Steam Holiday Sale roundup, I'll round-up some of the hidden deals on Steam as the sale comes to a close.
Are you an RPG fan? If so, you'll want to check out the second-last Steam sale day of 2014. It's full of RPG goodness including Child of Light, Dragon Age: Origins, the Final Fantasy franchise, and The Witcher franchise. So if you would rather level up than shoot em up, your wallet will be hurting today.
Also, a couple of etg favourites are for sale in the Flash Sales with Crimes & Punishments: Sherlock Holmes and Spec Ops: The Line.
A little late but not really any less relevant, it's time for a look at today's sales over on Steam. I was off watching Big Hero 6 this morning instead of waiting around for today's sales. I think that it was worth it. It was surprisingly good.
As often seems to be the case with this year's Steam Holiday Sale, I feel like I've seen this lineup of deals before in previous sales. Left 4 Dead, Don't Starve, Splinter Cell, Battleblock Theater… At least the Half-Life franchise is on sale as a Flash Sale and you can get Gunpoint as a Community Pick. That has to count for something.
We're into the final week of the Steam Holiday sale so I'd imagine a few people are getting itchy to clear their wishlists. Just remember to wait until a game is listed as a Daily Deal, Flash Sale or Community Pick.
Funny story about buying games though. I bought a couple of game this morning and picked up a few cards as a result. Six cards earned but I got three of one card and two of another. Sometimes, R-N-Jesus isn't on your side.
Well, I think that today's the day that I go broke from the Steam Holiday Sale. Today's sale doesn't really add anything new to the mix but there are still some deals I want a part of. Like Shovel Knight which was supposed to be one of this year's best indie games. Throw that in with yesterday's deals which include one of the year's best AAA games, Shadow of Mordor, and one of the fastest growing eSports and top shooters in the world, CS:GO, and you have a pretty good lineup today.
Happy Boxing Day, everyone! I guess that's only really a thing if you're in the Commonwealth. If you're in America, it's Happy Day-After-Christmas-We-Really-Need-To-Get-Rid-Of-Inventory-Sale-Day! Chances are there are deals all over the place if you look around. You have a few hours left to save on Origin which has Battlefield 3 for $1.00. GreenManGaming is wrapping up its sales but also has that additional 20% coupon code that applies to your whole order. GOG is having a classic Square Enix sale. And Amazon.com is usually pretty good for doing discounts that are at least as good as Steam.
And today is a good day to do some looking around for some other deals. It's not that there aren't good deals on Steam today. It's just that they're the same old deals. CS:GO, Brothers, Thief, Kerbal Space Program… It's a very been there, done that sort of sale today.
Hi all, I'm taking a break from making side dishes to bring you today's deals in the Steam Holiday Sale. If you didn't get what you were looking for from Santa or have a Steam card burning a hole in your pocket, there are some good newer games that are on deep discount today.
A helpful reminder, though, that Steam isn't the only place to get games for cheap. GreenManGaming is running through the end of its holiday sale. I just picked up Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, a $20 game, for $7.49. Amazon has a sale ongoing right now which is usually pretty good for deals on year-old-plus games. And you can always check your local game stores for their post-Christmas deals.

Q: angle congruence in inscribed triangle In $\triangle ABC$ construct altitudes $AA', BB', CC'$ meeting at point M to form the orthocenter of the triangle. Let O be the circumcenter of $\triangle ABC$. Show that $\angle BAA' = \angle OAC$ and $AO \perp B'C'$.
The attempt that I have tried: Extending the altitudes to touch the circle at 3 different points. And also constructing AO and extending it to touch the circle at a point. I attempted to show that arc formed from extending $AA'$ and point B was congruent to the arc formed from extending $AO$ and point $C$. This attempt did not work for me, unless I did something wrong and it actually does work. If someone could please provide guidance for this question I would appreciate it. enter image description here

A: The first part is easy . . .

Let $\theta = \angle BAA'$.
Then, using degree measure,
\begin{align*}
\angle ABA' &= 90 - \theta\\[4pt]
\implies \angle ABC &= 90 - \theta&&\text{[since $\angle ABC = \angle ABA'$]}\\[4pt]
\implies \angle AOC &= 2(90 - \theta)&&\text{[central angle is twice inscribed angle]}\\[4pt]
&= 180 - 2\theta\\[4pt]
\implies \angle OAC &= \theta&&\text{[since triangle AOC is isosceles with apex at $O$]}\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
Therefore $\angle BAA' = \angle OAC$.

The second part seems harder.

Here's a brute force solution using complex numbers . . .

The goal is to show $OA \perp B_1C_1$.

For each vertex, let the corresponding complex number be denoted by the lower case version of the same letter.

$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Without loss of generality, we can assume
\begin{align*}
&\;\;{\small{\bullet}}\;\;\text{The circumcenter is $0\;$ (by an appropriate translation).}
\\[4pt]
&\;\;{\small{\bullet}}\;\;\text{The circumradius is $1\;$ (by an appropriate scaling).}
\\[4pt]
&\;\;{\small{\bullet}}\;\;a = 1\;\text{(by an appropriate rotation).}
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Two simple facts:$\;$If $z$ is a complex number, then
\begin{align*}
&\;\;{\small{\bullet}}\;\;z\;\text{is real if and only if}\;\bar{z}=z
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\,
\\[4pt]
&\;\;{\small{\bullet}}\;\;z\;\text{is pure imaginary if and only if}\;\bar{z}=-z
\\[12pt]
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Since $|b|=|c|=1$, we have
$$
\bar{b}={\small{\frac{1}{b}}}\;\text{and}\;\bar{c}={\small{\frac{1}{c}}}
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;\;\;\;\;\,
$$
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Since $B_1$ is on line $AC$,

\begin{align*}
b_1 &= 1 + s(c-1),\;\text{for some}\;s \in\mathbb{R}
\qquad\qquad\qquad\;\;\;\;\;
\\[4pt]
\implies\;\overline{b_1} &= 1 + s(\bar{c} - 1)
\\[4pt]
&=1 + s\left({\small{\frac{1}{c}}} - 1\right)
\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Next, let
$$
p = \frac{b - b_1}{c-1}
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;
$$
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Then
\begin{align*}
&B_1B \perp AC
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;\,
\\[4pt]
\implies\; &p\;\text{is pure imaginary}
\\[4pt]
\implies\; &\bar{p}=-p
\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Simplifying $p$, we get
\begin{align*}
p &= \frac{b - b_1}{c-1}
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;
\\[4pt]
&= \frac{b- \left(1 + s(c-1)\right)}{c-1}
\\[4pt]
&= \frac{b-1}{c-1} - s
\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Then
\begin{align*}
p &= \frac{b-1}{c-1} - s
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;\;\;\;\;\;\;
\\[4pt]
\implies\;\bar{p} &= \frac{\bar{b}-1}{\bar{c}-1} - s
\\[4pt]
&= \frac{\frac{1}{b}-1}{\frac{1}{c}-1} - s
\\[4pt]
&= \frac{c(b-1)}{b(c-1)} - s
\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Hence
\begin{align*}
&\bar{p}=-p
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;
\\[6pt]
\implies\; &\frac{c(b-1)}{b(c-1)} - s = s - \frac{b-1}{c-1}
\\[4pt]
\implies\; &s = \frac{(b+c)(b-1)}{2b(c-1)}
\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Then
\begin{align*}
b_1 &= 1 + s(c-1)
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;\;\;\;\;
\\[4pt]
&= 1 +  \left(\frac{(b+c)(b-1)}{2b(c-1)}\right)(c-1)
\\[4pt]
&= 1 +  \frac{(b+c)(b-1)}{2b}
\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Thus, we have
$$
b_1 = 1 +  \frac{(b+c)(b-1)}{2b}
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;\;\;\;
$$
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
By analogous reasoning, we get
$$
c_1 = 1 +  \frac{(b+c)(c-1)}{2c}
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;\;\;\;
$$
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Then
\begin{align*}
&OA \perp B_1C_1
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\;\;
\\[6pt]
\iff &\frac{c_1-b_1}{a}\;\text{is pure imaginary}
\\[4pt]
\iff\; &c_1-b_1\;\text{is pure imaginary}\qquad\text{[since a = 1]}
\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad$
Let $w = c_1-b_1.\,$ It remains to show $\bar{w} = - w.\;$Then
\begin{align*}
w &= c_1-b_1
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad
\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad
\\[4pt]
&= \left(1 +  \frac{(b+c)(c-1)}{2c}\right)-\left(1 +  \frac{(b+c)(b-1)}{2b}\right)
\\[4pt]
&= \frac{c^2-b^2}{2bc}
\\[4pt]
\implies\;
\bar{w} &=
\frac
{\left(\frac{1}{\large{c}}\right)^2 - \left(\frac{1}{b}\right)^2}
{
2
\left(\frac{1}{b}\right)
\left(\frac{1}{{\large{c}}}\right)
}
\\[4pt]
&= \frac{b^2-c^2}{2bc}
\\[4pt]
\implies\;\bar{w} &= - w,\;\text{as required}
\\[4pt]
\end{align*}
This completes the proof.

Business owner Jessica VanderVere believes Bee Joyful isn't just a business name, it's a mindset, a way of thinking, and a way of living at peace.
Jessica was raised in a cabin deep in the forest near Allegan, Michigan. Her parents were big believers in being earth-friendly, self-sufficient, and living simply, so her roots in sustainability runs deep.
They lived their lives "off the grid," meaning no electricity and no running water. Jessica learned a lot about being resourceful. When you grow up without modern amenities, you discover your true creativity – something she is thankful has stuck with her through the years.
Fast forward to today. As a single mom, raising five children, she no longer lives in a cabin in the woods. She does have electricity, but the same lessons about creativity that she learned from a simple childhood lives on. Sustainability, being Earth-friendly, leaving things better than how you found them, are all lessons she is teaching her children who are active participants in the Bee Joyful Shop.
Jessica may not wear her faith on her sleeve, but she does take words of encouragement from the Bible. One verse that has resonated in her life over and over that she thinks about often is Romans 12:12: "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer." To Jessica, that verse encourages us to always be joyful, no matter your situation. "Bee Joyful" isn't just a business name, it's a mindset, a way of thinking, and a way of living at peace.
The Bee Joyful Shop started as a simple idea. Creating and using sustainable, Earth-friendly materials to store food, instead of harmful plastic wraps, isn't new. In fact, Jessica's grandmother used beeswax wraps as a way of sealing food long before plastic wrap was invented. Jessica thought that what would be a good thing for her family and may be something her friends and neighbors would want to use too. After a little research, a few notes, and a trip to the fabric store, Jessica started made her first food wraps. They worked just like she thought they would! Soon after, she opened her Bee Joyful Shop not knowing if anyone would be interested in buying them. Four months later, Bee Joyful Shop proudly sources beeswax from a local, generational beekeeper, making each piece by hand, using fabrics made in the USA. They strive to keep packaging material to a minimum, using 100% recycled materials. Their goal is to be a zero waste business.
From Bee Joy Shop's simple beginnings, their wraps are sold all over the world. The three pack combo Bubbly Bee pattern are best sellers. We also take special orders. If you have a theme or pattern in mind, let us know and Bee Joy will do their best to create it just for you. We also do bulk orders with special pricing for stores.

PARKING CHANGES
Ham Expo is asking all vendors, outside tailgaters and attendees with RV's or travel trailers to make note of location changers in the parking lot.
A few years ago the Bell County Expo Center relocated its main entrance gate. This relocation reduced the number of parking spaces directly in front of the Exposition Building. In order to provide close parking for handicap and elderly Ham Expo asks that vendors, outside tailgaters, RV's and travel trailers park to the right of the main entrance as you drive toward the building.
On the photo below you can see the old and new entrance locations and how it affected parking. Ham Expo wants to thank everyone for their understanding and consideration for making Ham Expo more accessible to the handicapped and elderly.

Southeastern University to Honor New President
⇑ back to "U.S."
4:01PM EDT 10/31/2011 Dana Davis
Kent Ingle
Southeastern University will hold an Installation Ceremony for Dr. Kent Ingle, D.Min., on Friday, Nov. 18, at 10 a.m. The ceremony will be in the university's Bush Chapel.
Speakers for the event include Dr. George O. Wood, general superintendent of the Assemblies of God; Dr. G. Robert Cook Jr., executive vice president of The Alliance for the Assemblies of God Higher Education; Dr. Don Argue, chancellor of Northwest University; and Tommy Barnett, chancellor of Southeastern University.
Ingle, began serving as Southeastern University's 15th president on Feb. 1. Before coming to Southeastern, he was the dean of the College of Ministry at Northwest University in Kirkland, Wash.
The Southeastern community is excited as Ingle's tenure begins. He has a heart for students, is passionate about educating and preparing students for Christ-centered leadership and service, and the Southeastern faculty and staff look forward to the university's continued academic and spiritual growth under his leadership.
Under his direction, the university has already made tremendous strides. Southeastern graduated its largest class in school history in May with 399 graduates, several key leadership positions have been filled or added, and the administration has started to implement a comprehensive shared-governance model.
Ingle's professional ministry experience includes eight years as a college professor and 15 years of pastoral leadership to two congregations—one in Los Angeles and the other in Chicago. His pastoral focus was to lead turnaround churches. He loved helping people discover their unique, God-given design, which they then used to make a significant contribution to a Christ-centered missional ministry in the surrounding community.
Prior to entering professional ministry, Ingle spent 10 years as a television sports anchor for NBC and CBS. He started as an anchor at the age of 18 in Bakersfield, Calif., and finished his career in Los Angeles. He covered many professional sports teams and interviewed hundreds of notable people in the professional sports world, including Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Pete Rose, Muhammad Ali and Carl Lewis.
An ordained Assemblies of God minister since 1988, Ingle earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in broadcast journalism from Vanguard University of Southern California and later completed his Master of Theological Studies at Vanguard. He received his Doctor of Ministry degree from the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary in Springfield, Miss.
Ingle has served as Presbyter of the Central Coast Section of the Southern California Assemblies of God, as well as on the board of several Assemblies of God and para-church organizations.
His experience in the broadcasting industry, along with his pastoral experience, allows him to bring a rare blend of depth, humor and practical insight to every audience. He makes the Bible come alive with uplifting messages that are relevant, practical and anything but boring!
In addition to his role at Southeastern University, Ingle serves as a church coach/consultant and a conference speaker. He is passionate about investing his time with church leadership teams, helping them develop their unique gifts and strengths so they can better serve their communities. A California native, Ingle and his wife, Karen, have three teenage children.
Southeastern University has more than 2,500 students. It is a private, liberal arts school accredited to offer 45 programs leading to bachelor's degrees and ten programs leading to master's degrees.
