Warning For Golfers As Player Awarded £400k After Losing Eye

Leave a comment

Leading UK golf insurance specialist Golf Care has urged players to ensure they take out sufficient protection before stepping onto the course.

The warning comes after a Scottish court ordered a golfer and a golf club to pay damages of almost £400,000 following an accident which led to an amateur player losing an eye after being struck by a ball.

A judge at the Court of Session in Edinburgh ruled on Friday that 44-year-old Anthony Phee from Sale, Greater Manchester, should receive £397,000 in damages – 30 per cent of which will be paid by Niddry Castle Golf Club at Winchburgh, in West Lothian, where the incident took place and 70 per cent by the golfer who struck the wayward shot.

The case has highlighted the importance of individual golfers having specialist golf insurance which covers them for eventualities such as this that can potentially occur on the golf course.

John Woosey, managing director of Golf Care, said: “It’s worrying that nine out of 10 golfers aren’t adequately covered when they step on the course. Mr Phee’s case proves that accidents happen and can cost golfers a fortune.”

The UK’s leading specialist golf insurance provider, Golf Care, offers policies that would have covered the liable golfer for this sort of incident which left the visiting player with only one eye after he was struck by a wayward tee-shot.

Mr Woosey added that in many cases, golfers think their home insurance will cover them for damage or personal liability, but the truth is that an inexpensive specialist golf insurance policy is the best way to ensure that individual golfers are adequately covered.

He said: “This sort of incident highlights just how dangerous a golf course can be, and a pay-out of £397,000 is a staggering amount.”

“The vast majority of golfers don’t realise how easy it is to compare golf insurance and aren’t properly covered. But whether you’re a single figure
handicapper or a golfing novice, we all hit poor shots. Why take the risk when for less than £30 a year you can be fully covered for incidents such as this – a small fee to pay for peace of mind every time you step onto the course.”

The country is experiencing gradual economic improvement for quite a while now, so that it is a fantastic magnet for those trying to find job opportunities abroad.

Present state statistics this is currently showing who’s needs no less than 500,000 workers over the following decade. The state Western Australia has such a great need for workers due to the meager Two million population. A substantial chunk of Western Australia’s workforce should be met, which only signifies that it has to count on overseas manpower. This case created great chance of foreigners seeking financial goldmine in Here.

Actually, Western Australia is in requirement of skilled workers greater than before. While using increase in profits in mining industry, skilled workforce including engineers, managers, welders, plumbers, pipefitters, and also skilled laborers, are expected to man the mines. Skilled professionals may also be sought to fill out jobs for mining support personnel and processing plants. There are also numerous job openings which are indirectly linked to the mining industry.

Mining Industry

Most Popular Nobel Laureates

Here is a list of top 5 Nobel prize winners who are most popular . The recognition is represented by the number of searches on them.

The first in the list is Albert Einstein

Albert Einsten was awarded Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for his leading work on photo electric effect.

Apart from this work, he is also acclaimed for his theory of relativity, and the mass energy equation, both of which challenged the contemporary ideas of Science in his time.
His work not only got him legendary, but also converted the viewpoint of Physics completely.
It is no surprize that even after more than hundred years, he continued to be very famous.

In later years, he worked on the general theory of relativity and unified field theory. In the history of Science, Albert Einstein was ascertained as an exceptional genius.

The extraordinary Marie Curie

She is the first and only person who got Nobel Prize both in Chemistry and Physics.

Madame Marie Sklodowska Curie, got Nobel Prize in 1911 for Chemistry for her invention of two new elements at that time Radium and Polonium. She was working as professor at the Faculty of Sciences of Paris at that time.

Earlier to that, she already got a Nobel Prize jointly with two other scientists – Henri Becquerel and Pierre Curie (her husband) during 1903 in Physics for their work on radioactive characteristics of Uranium and Thorium.

While continuing on the above research, she observed the two new radioactive elements which are named as Polonium, after the name of her birth country Poland and Radium.

Martin Luther King Jr

Martin Luther King Jr, was from USA. From his childhood, he had seen racial bias and worked peacefully to achieve equalness of all human beings. He led the first great Negro non-violent peace march and the bus boycott during 1955, which continued for more than one year. Due to his work, in 1956, Supreme Court of the United States had affirmed the laws requiring segregation on buses unconstitutional and subsequently people of all races used the buses as equals.

He was awarded Nobel peace prize in 1964 for his work on human rights. At the age of thirty-five, Martin Luther King, Jr., was the youngest man to have received the Nobel Peace Prize and he gifted the award money of $54,123 to the cause of the civil rights crusade.

US President Obama

Barack H Obama, President of United States was accorded Nobel Prize in 2009 for hismarvelous efforts to encourage international diplomacy and united action between peoples.
His vision of the human race without weapons was applauded by the Nobel Committee. His vision expedited more work in the area of human rights and democracy across the globe.
However his Nobel Award met with some criticism also. By and large Nobel Prize is given to long demonstrated work where as Obama’s efforts were in the initial stage.

Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela was born in South Africa in 1918 From his initial years, he questioned the South African ruling party’s racial discrimination policies.

To fight this cause, Mandela formed a military wing of the African National Congress party. For 18 years, he was jailed and finally released in 1990.

After he released from the jail, he was elected as the first democratically choosen president of South Africa.

Nelson Mandela received 1993 Nobel peace prize jointly along with Frederik Willem de Klerk, president of South Africa at that time, for their work for the peaceful termination of the apartheid establishment, and for making the new structure for a new democratic South Africa.

U.S. Company Turns to BRAZIL to Advance New Technology

Leave a comment

We Don’t Make the Smartphone…We Make it Smarter, Safer, Courteous and Compliant.
With a registered bill on the table, U.S. based Try Safety First (TSF) is deploying time, talent and resources into Brazil to advance its new mobile phone protocol technology. With its white paper being published in more than twenty-four countries across the globe, it is Brazilwhere TSF is looking to launch.

When asked why Brazil , TSF CEO John Fischer said, “TSF is eager to work with all governments and strategic partners to advance our patent-pending protocol technology. But to date, it is the congressional leaders of Brazil who have demonstrated the greatest desire and responsiveness to tackle the serious cell phone problems in their country.”

According to the World Health Organization, environment specific (prisons, court rooms, classrooms, in flight and behind the wheel) cell phone problems are costing theworld’s top industrialized countries between one and three percent of GDP. Fischer agrees societal cell phone problems are dynamic, devastating and very costly. But he also expands the statement by saying they can easily be eradicated with the implementation of TSF protocol technology.

TSF is the world leader for mobile device protocol development. According to Fischer, the advancement of TSF’s protocol technology will provide an optional tool for parents, teachers, judges, wardens, pilots and employers to easily eliminate cell phone problems within their respective environments. TSF’s primary objective is to establish a uniform global standard throughout the wireless industry to increase the functionality of mobile devices to provide simple solutions to remedy grand societal problems.

Established in 1990, the Macmillan Cancer Support’s ‘Coffee Morning’ event quickly grew in popularity and soon became known as the ‘world’s largest coffee morning’. Last year alone saw 43,000 people get involved in this great cause helping to raise over eight million pounds.

Cancer is still a huge health risk for the UK population with statistics showing 1 in 3 people suffering from the illness at some point in their lives. These individuals require financial, emotional and medical support which Macmillan attempts to address and provide.

Palestinian Statehood Bid Questioned at UN Headquarters in New York by International Christian Delegation

Leave a comment

September 9, 2011 — /RTPR/ — NEW YORK – A group of Christian pastors presented an outline of Bible prophesies to the U.N. relating to the proposal to recognise Palestine this month and the dangerous consequences to the nations. As reported by The Washington Post and The Associated Press in a news release dated Wednesday, August 31, 2011, Israel is resigned to the U.N. General Assembly’s endorsement of a planned Palestinian bid for admission as a state to the United Nations in late September.

Conservative Christians are virtually unanimous in their support for Israel. In mid-August, Yahoo News news.yahoo.com reported that Bible-believing pastors were in New York City to warn U.N. officials concerning the Palestinian’s admission to the United Nations. The group informed officials of the Bible’s strong warnings against dividing the land of Israel. One member of the delegation was quoted as saying“There’s a Jew on the throne of heaven and Israel is his land.”

They have repeated their warnings of the Bible’s declaration of the true owner of the land of Israel and the predicted consequences to the Nations that are involved in dividing Israel. A summation of their beliefs is as follows:

1. God’s ownership of the entire land of Israel is absolute and His conveyance of the land to the Jewish people disallows U.N. authority over Israel.

• God said of Israel, “The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine…” Leviticus 25:23

• God gave it, “To Israel for an everlasting covenant, saying, unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance” “And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee…all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.” Genesis 17:8

2. Granting nation status to the Palestinians defies God’s declaration of ownership and will lead to the following judgments:

• God said that all nations would collectively divide the land of Israel and that the people and nations involved would be judged severely. They used the following Bible verses to support their case: Zechariah 12:3 “…I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.” Joel 3:2 states: “I will also gather all nations …and will plead with them…for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.”

• The Bible also teaches that subsequent to dividing the land of Israel, God will bring the following types of catastrophes and judgments which are revealed in the Prophets and the New Testament:

• Worldwide financial collapse

• Worldwide weather disasters and extreme heat waves

• The greatest earthquake of all time leading to the cities falling

• Worldwide famine with plagues and pestilence

• Armageddon

“For the LORD shall rise up …he shall be wroth…Now therefore be ye not mockers…: for I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.” Isaiah 28:21-22

Some have asked how a loving and merciful God could seek to destroy the nations for coming against Israel. The answer they state is that they have rejected The Lord Jesus Christ, referred to in the Bible as the King of the Jews and the ruler of heaven and earth.

• “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” Matthew 28:18

• “The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath. He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.” Psalms 110:5-6

Several U.N. staff members agreed that the Bible teaches that Jesus, who paid for the sins of the world with His blood, will return and reign over the whole earth. The delegation quoted the following Biblical verses in the context of Jesus’ offer of mercy and imminent worldwide reign: “And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up…to worship the King, the LORD of hosts…” Zechariah 14:16

Those who recognize their personal sin and ask Jesus for salvation will escape the world-wide judgements. “For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness…” Mark 7:21-22

“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:13

More than 1,000 travellers surveyed name tipping their biggest source of confusion when travelling abroad

Leave a comment

Aug 19, 2011 — RTPR – When travelling abroad, UK residents find the issue of tipping more confusing than anything else and value advice on what to do in restaurants and taxis – a recent survey from Carrentals.co.uk reveals.

The online comparison experts interviewed 1,000 people who used car hire UK services in the past year to discover what issues they wanted advice on the most. Interestingly, more important topics like legal points and important festivals were passed over for the subject of tipping etiquette.

Although many countries still maintain a culture of no tipping, leaving a gratuity in restaurants is increasingly becoming the norm. When to tip or not to tip is a dilemma many travellers face, along with how much to leave the waiter. As many restaurants add a service charge to the bill, this only adds to the confusion.

Gareth Robinson, Managing Director of car hire specialist Carrentals.co.uk, says: “Lately it seems like wherever we travel in the world, waiters expect a tip when we eat out. When you come from a culture that doesn’t tip, this can feel like an uncomfortable process concerning how much is an appropriate amount. Places like the USA have a deeply entrenched tipping scene with tips averaging a whopping 20% in most restaurants.”

“When you know ahead of time what to expect from the restaurant in terms of service and gratuity you can avoid a mountain of frustration and embarrassment. We learned from our survey that people want to know what to do in restaurants, taxis and even hotels before they head off on holiday. Our goal now is provide our customers with everything they need to know in clear easy terms right on our car rental booking website.”

The popular Carrentals.co.uk website compares rental rates and deals from dozens of international firms including Alamo, Auto Europe, Budget, Holiday Autos and Sixt, and has handled more than 650,000 rentals to date. For more information visitwww.carrentals.co.uk
