People with hearing loss may find it additionally difficult to get up in the morning if they cant hear their alarm clock and dont want to sleep with their hearing aid in.

Patagonia is a vast region with a huge variety of amazing trout fisheries states Montana Angler Fly Fishing outfitter Brian McGeehan.

Surprise Last Chance for the Maya 2012 Winter Solstice at Belize’s Chaa Creek

Posted on by
Reply


(PRWEB) December 08, 2012

Due to unforeseen circumstances, three deluxe packages for The Lodge at Chaa Creeks 2012 Maya Winter Solstice celebration have become available, marketing administrator Larry Waight announced today.

We thought we had been booked out, but I just discovered that three Maya 2012 Winter Solstice all-inclusive vacation packages are now available, which means three lucky people can now get in to join what promises to be an experience of a lifetime, Mr Waight said.

Chaa Creeks 2012 Maya Winter Solstice event has been highly anticipated since it was announced earlier this year. Combining hands-on education about Maya civilisation with tours of ancient Maya archaeological sites including some of the most important ancient cities in the Mundo Maya, or Maya World, the all-inclusive Belize vacation packages were designed to immerse guests in Maya culture prior to the December 21st Winter Solstice, which had been highlighted on the Maya Long Count calendar thousands of years ago as a pivotal date for humankind.

However, modern conspiracy buffs, various internet sites and even a major Hollywood film have helped promote speculation that the Maya Long Count calendar ends abruptly and signifies the end of the world on December 21 2012. Mr Waight said nothing could be further from the truth.

Those (apocalypse) theories are absolute and utter nonsense, Mr Waight said. December 21 2012 was and still is a hugely important date for the Maya. Its true that the date marks the completion of the 13th Baktun of the Maya Long Count calendar, a cycle thousands of years long, but interpreting that as the end of the world is taking a giant leap into fantasy world, he said.

There will be celebrations throughout the Mundo Maya, an area encompassing all of Belize and parts of Guatemala, Mexico, Honduras and El Salvador to commemorate the event. Huge crowds are expected at Mexicos ancient Maya site of Chitzen Itza and large celebrations are planned for Tikal in Guatemala. Mr Waight said Chaa Creeks celebrations are unique due to their more intimate, culturally holistic nature, emphasis on an authentic Maya experience and range of activities.

Its going to be a lot of fun, and the package is set up so that guests can structure their time and learn as much or as little as they want at our representational Maya village where there will be workshops in Maya arts, crafts, cooking, farming, healing and other areas, he said.

Dr Jaime Awe and Dr Allan Moore, two of the worlds leading Mayanists, will be giving presentations and authors Rosita Arvigo and David Ruiz, anthropologist Joe Awe, and Maya flautist Pablo Collado will be among other expert speakers and workshop leaders.

There will also be a wealth of activities and things do, such as canoeing, horseback riding, nature walks, Maya ceremonial cave explorations, even Caribbean snorkelling on the Belize Great Barrier Reef. We wanted to do something really special for the 2012 Winter Solstice, and everyones very happy with the results. Its structured to be deeply rewarding and at the same time deeply relaxing, Mr Waight said.

The highlight of the event will be on the solstice itself, December 21 2012, with a traditional Maya feast, music and candle light procession to the ancient Maya temple of Tunichilen located in Chaa Creeks 365 acre nature reserve.

The Maya Winter Solstice 2012 all-inclusive vacation package can be booked for seven, four or three days beginning December 15, Mr Waight said, and will interest everyone from professional Mayanists to families, friends and couples.

Far from being the end of the world, we think this is going to open up a whole new way of looking at the world for everyone taking part in this event. This is the very centre of the Heartland of the Maya, and it is going to be very interesting to see what happens the night of December 21, 2012.

Whatever happens, at least everyone here at Chaa Creek is going to be very well prepared for it, he added.

Latest Business Vans News: Cutting fuel bill by at least 15 per cent is very possible today

Posted on by
Reply


(PRWEB UK) 26 November 2012

FUEL costs: they just get higher and higher. Not that one needs reminding of the next guaranteed increase, but fuel duty is set to rise in January 2013 by 3p per litre.

Every small business could do without that, but bigger bills are on the way. Its inevitable. Or is it?

The Forum of Private Business, which campaigns on behalf of small businesses, has issued a statement to the Chancellor calling on action to improve the economy in his Autumn Statement. And its number one issue is fuel duty.

Of all the costs to business, fuel hits the largest number of our members. We want to see the Chancellor freezing fuel duty for at least a further six months, says the Forums Head of Policy, Alex Jackman.

But what if the Chancellor doesnt listen. What then, many will wonder.

Actually, theres a way to cut fuel costs. By at least 15 per cent.

Most drivers can reduce their fuel bills by 15 per cent simply by driving in a more fuel-efficient way. With specialist training, the saving often rises to 25 per cent. But lets keep it simple.

What can one do, without any expensive training, to cut their fuel bill?

Three things. Efficient driving. Efficient planning. Efficient van prep.

Efficient driving

Efficient driving, first. Drivers should think ahead, look further down the road and anticipate road conditions. Its about preserving momentum, and trying to avoid sudden braking and sharp acceleration.

They shouldn’t welly it away from the lights and then slam on the anchors at the last minute for the next red light. That wastes fuel.

Where possible, they should change up at about 2000rpm. This keeps a diesel engine in its most fuel-efficient operating range. Many drivers also find it a less stressful way to drive than revving the socks off the engine.

Watch ones speed. Driving at 85mph uses 25 per cent more fuel than driving at 70mph, according to the Energy Saving Trust. And when they’re stuck in stationary traffic or parked up, say, taking a call, they should switch off the engine.

Using the aircon can keep drivers alert and thats good for safety but its worth knowing that the aircon adds between two and five per cent to the fuel bill. Keeping the windows closed at higher speeds will also boost mpg.

Efficient planning

Next, planning. Dont burn fuel doing unnecessary mileage.

Satnavs can help reduce ones dead mileage. Yes, they sometimes get a bad press but more often than not theyll prevent one driving round aimlessly in an unfamiliar neighbourhood in search of a new clients premises.

Whats more, many satnavs including Garmins and Tom Toms include an eco route option, where they will plan the most fuel-efficient route. If their satnav does that, they should use it.

Alternatively, use one of the many free online journey planners and, where possible, drive at times when traffic is freer flowing. They could use online fuel comparison sites, too, so they know the cheapest places to fill up.

Efficient van prep

Finally, the van. Check the tyre pressures.

On top of vital safety issues, a 25 per cent drop in recommended pressure bumps up ones fuel bill by two per cent. It all adds up.

They should take notice of the new EU tyre labelling regs when they replace their tyres. They can now see which tyres are most economical on fuel and it can make a big difference.

They shouldn’t put stuff on the roof unless they need to at motorway speeds, a simple roof rack – even unloaded – can increase fuel consumption by 16 per cent, according to a study by automotive design and engineering firm IDEA.

And weight: they shouldn’t carry unnecessary cargo or equipment. Weight is a key factor in fuel consumption: the more of it they have to shift, the more fuel theyll be using.

The effect of speed on fuel consumption

They dont have to drive everywhere Harry Flattersin fact the more considered their driving, the more theyll save:

For a typical large van the increases in fuel consumption depending on van speedare dramatic
