Tumblr media
being a part of an extra-curricular exchange student program wasn’t something you’d always planned on doing, but with your english language a-level it was too good an opportunity to pass up. the only thing that put a damper on your excitement was the fact that you’d be going alone. it’s not that no one else in your class was taking part in the exchange student program, it was just unfortunate that you were the only one being sent to a small island called kildare on the east coast of the usa; it was quote-unquote “paradise on earth”. you were going to be staying with the heyward family. from what you were able to gather from the internet the outer banks was a string of barrier islands off the coast of north carolina and south-eastern virginia, a popular tourist destination, and seeing the differences in how the locals interacted with each other, along with how they interacted with tourists would be interesting and beneficial to your studies.
you finished packing up your suitcases, sitting on them as you zipped them up to try and squeeze in as much of your belongings as possible for this trip. the school only permitted two large suitcases and a carry-on bag for the trip, so it was vital to you that you packed everything you deemed essential for this trip to america; a brimming pencil case, at least two notebooks, your laptop, tablet, headphones, two different books, your journal, and anything else you could think of to keep you entertained during the 11+ hour fight. everything else that you wanted to take with you, such as half your wardrobe, your skincare and makeup supplies, and a plentiful supply of snacks, was distributed between your two suitcases.
at 8am the next morning, all students from your year were stood out at the front of school, waiting for the coach that would come and take you to the airport for your 10am flight. you hoped that there would be no delays. the coach ride was long and bumpy but being with your friends and classmates made it more bearable. you all went your separate ways at the airport, saying goodbye to each other and your teachers that had chaperoned the ride for the next few months.
your flight landed at 9:27pm at norfolk international airport and you were greeted outside the terminal by pope, who you’d started a penpal correspondship with as a part of the exchange student program, and an older man who you assumed to be his father. pope held up a large cardboard sign with your name painted, somewhat neatly, in bright colours. despite the slight feeling of embarrassment that swept through you, you couldn’t help the smile that appeared on your face. you walked over and greeted the pair, mr heyward offering to help you pick up your suitcases and load them into his truck.
the ferry ride from the mainland to the island didn’t take that long in comparison to your flight, but the jet lag seemed to make time feel as if it were crawling by instead. when you reached the heyward’s house, pope helped you to carry your luggage to the guest room that had been tidied up for your stay. unpacking took the better part of an hour with the occasional need for some rearranging, but finally all your belongings were safely stored.
pope introduced you to his group of friends the next day. there was jj maybank; a loud and boisterous blond, john b routledge; an easygoing brunette, and finally kiara carrera; a strong-minded beach lover even if she was technically from the rich side of the island, ‘figure eight’.
almost as soon as you’d opened your mouth to greet them, they’d begun asking about your accent. you explained about where you were from and therefore your accent which was followed by the dreaded “is that near london?” question, which you answered reluctantly. then jj was asking you about pronunciation, or rather he was asking you to say the ’stereotypically british’ phrases that floated around on the internet, such as ‘it’s tuesday, innit?’ and ‘a bottle of water.’. you had no idea if how you’d answered had been what he’d expected, but he seemed happy enough with your response.
something that seemed to surprise the pogues was the language that you used. obviously, the pogues were no strangers to swearing in conversation, but sometimes they seemed caught off guard by just how much you swore and the explicit words you used. more than once you’d have to explain to them how a lot of british language was based upon sarcasm and insults, even if they were meant in an affectionate or playful way.
such a moment was illustrated when you were on a call with one of your friends from england. it was noon back home so early in the morning in the obx; thankfully it was the weekend so you didn’t have to worry about any school related obligations. your friend was catching you up on events that had transpired since your departure, mainly gossip, and the pogues were curiously watching how you reacted to the news you were receiving. after one bit of slightly incredulous news you couldn’t help the retort of “that fat cunt!” slipping out. they all looked over at you shocked, but you hadn’t even noticed the looks your language had caused.
your call was over shortly after that, both you and your friend having other things that needed your attention. as you hung up the call, you finally noticed the expressions of your state-side friends. 
“what?” you breathed out in a sort of nervous-confusion.
“you just called someone a ‘fat cunt’.” Kiara said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
“ah, right. okay.” you realised what she meant. “I didn’t mean that in the way you think. like she is a cunt but she’s not fat. I meant ‘fat’ as in how much of a cunt she is, is fat.” you explained. you had no idea if they understood your explanation but you hoped they did, otherwise you were going to seem like a massive cow.
“gonna be honest, I always thought that calling someone a ‘cunt’ was more of an australian thing.” jj interrupted your thoughts. his words made you shrug, “the british too, i guess. especially if you live up north.”
a week passed. you were beginning to feel settled in at the local high school you went to with Pope, who had introduced you to the rest of his friends. pope had talked about some sort of bonfire party that would be held on the beach. it was gathering that all on the island were welcome to, ‘kooks’, ‘pogues’ and ‘tourons’ alike. picking up the colloquial language and customs were easy with how much the division of the upper and lower class penetrated the island, you already had nearly half a notebook full of annotations about the different language use. this congregation of everyone on the island was an academic opportunity too good to give up. though you’d probably just have to try and recall things from memory, taking a notebook wouldn’t really be fit for a party.
the bonfire was in full swing when you and the others pulled up to the beach in john b’s old vw camper van, lovingly referred to as the ‘twinkie’. there were a few kegs of beer strewn around the beach and a few dozen cigarettes were lighting up the still dark of the night sky like fireflies. music was playing from a pair of large bluetooth speakers, some random, probably pre-made, spotify playlist so loud that the bass pushed the thoughts out of your head. a group of people had created a dance area by the speakers, so close that it was almost impossible to hear the person next to you over the throbbing of the music. many were singing along to the music as they danced.
the dancing didn’t interest you to begin with, opting instead to grab one of the infamous plastic red cups, so often seen in movies, filled with a cheap beer. as you took a sip you felt an arm wrapped around your shoulders. in your peripheral you saw the blond mop of hair that belonged jj, the arm around you holding a burning joint whilst the other held a beer of his own. he noticed the scrunch of your nose as you sipped you drink, pulling the red cup away from your lips as though it had offended you, and laughed at the expression.
“what’s the matter? beer too cheap for you?” he asked.
“nah, it’s not that. beer’s weak is all.” you replied.
“weak?” he pulled back slightly as he asked, looking at you directly.
“yeah. what percentage is it? like a 2%?”
“dunno. probably something like that.”
“drunk stronger.” you shrugged and took another sip.
jj just watched with an impressed smirk. the two of you remained in a comfortable silence for a few minutes longer, sipping your respective beers and sharing the burning weed. you’d seen kie drag pope and john b to the dance area a few songs ago, but were now unable to identify them amongst the ever growing mass of dancers that had concentrated over by the speakers. just then you heard an all too familiar song intro. it had you straightening up, blocking out whatever jj was saying to focus on the song. you were half certain you had misheard, but no, without a doubt, ‘mr brightside’ by the killers was playing.
“holy shit, it’s mr brightside!” you all but squealed.
“mr what? what- where are you going?” jj yelled as you took off across the beach towards the music.
it had caught you completely off guard that mr brightside had started playing, despite the fact that you knew the killers were from la, mr brightside was such a classic british song, you’d hear at the pub, every school disco, year 11 prom, sixth form prom and any other opportunity where music could be played. you were yelling the lyrics from the top of your lungs by the time you’d reached the crowd. since the song wasn’t as popular in america as it was in england part of the crowd had dispersed and it was thanks to this that you were able to locate kiara, pope and john b so quickly. kie began singing and swaying with you to the music, behind her jj was running up and weaving through the remaining throng of people. the pogues smiled at your display of excitement, it showed how comfortable you’d become in the short time you’d been in the states.
you and the rest of the pogues were having dinner over at john b’s house, ‘the chateau’. everyone had agreed to chip in to help in one way or another; pope was providing the food in the first place from his dad’s store, kie was going to bring over her family’s slow cooker for the vegetables, jj was going to barbecue roast the lamb chops, and you were going to cook the potatoes. since it was a sunday and the rest of the ingredients were there, apart from gravy but you refused to go near american gravy, you decided to do roast potatoes. a make-shift sunday roast if you will. kiara didn’t take long with the veg, just under 20 minutes and you were only 5 minutes behind her with the potatoes. you and kie dished up the food you two had respectively prepared just as jj called through that the lamb was done. you and the others took your plates out to him to get dished up, kie taking her own plate as well as jj's.
you’d all decided to eat outside, and all though the others were used to the coastal humidity it still got to you during the evening where there was nothing to do, nothing to keep your mind off the blazing heat. basic conversation was flowing through the group as you ate your food until jj called out to you glanced in jj's direction and saw him practically inhaling his meal.
“christ jj, you don’t need to scoff your food that fast. it ain’t going anywhere.” you commented with a raised brow.
“I’m whatting my food?” jj asked, mouth full.
“first of all, swallow.” you waited until he complied before continuing, “second of all, I said that you were scoffing your food. when someone is trying to inhale their food, like eating without chewing.” you explained before your attention was taken away by something else you hated about the island’s warm climate; the inescapable onslaught of mosquitos.
“fucking midges.” you muttered, squashing the one approaching your food between your hands.
“what’s that?” kiara asked.
“hmm, oh it’s nothing, just complaining to myself about the midges, the mosquitos.” you clarified.
the conversation petered off into small nothings again until everyone was finished. you and pope were taking the plates inside as kiara cleaned up the slow cooker as best she could before having to return home with it. john b and jj followed the three of you in, john b saying to the room at large: “you three did a great job with the food.” jj clapped him on the back while you and kie gave your thanks over your shoulders.
“yeah, although I thought you were gonna do boiled potatoes?” pope asked you.
“was going to, but since it’s a sunday and the rest of the food is pretty much the same, thought I’d do roasties, felt like a taste of home having a sunday roast.” pope nodded, understanding that it was probably a comfort to your homesickness.
something that had caught you off guard the minute you’d arrived in america was the truth of how in movies or tv shows most people left their shoes on inside the house. it was more than likely that if you were to try that at home you’d get skinned alive by your parents.
the first time you’d stumbled upon this fact was when you arrived at the heyward's house on your very first night in outer banks. as soon as you stepped into the house in front of pope, who was helping you to carry in your belongings, you began to take off your shoes. pope noticed what you were doing and laughed under his breath at your actions, “you don’t need to take your shoes off, y’know.” you glanced at him and then down at your shoes, “it's a habit, I guess.” you shrugged.
another time that you were reminded of this difference was when you visited john b’s house for the first time. the floors at the chateau were rough and wooden, meaning that bare feet would be at constant threat of splinters if one was to take their shoes off. you’d gotten used to wearing slippers or just socks around the heyward house since their floors were laminated, but around the chateau it was safest to keep shoes on, no matter how innately wrong it felt.
in a way, not taking shoes off was beginning to grow on you, even if you would rather take that to the grave than admit it out loud. it saved time since the pogues were almost always on the move and staying outside more often than they were indoors. a downside was that it did make your feet feel kinda gross staying in shoes all day without a proper chance at breathing. another con was the production of blisters that appeared on your ankles from the constant wear.
it also meant that you were going through socks like wildfire. at least one pair a day, sometimes more if you went to the beach where clothing easily got soaked. you missed the laminated and carpeted floors of home where socks were only soaked from a downpour of rain.

just as info... because im a bitch who has to over explain everything...
i am on like, not semi hiatus but def. semi slow down for a bit and here's why. under the cut is a lot of boring work garbage, feel free to ignore lol
ok SO here's the thing
i think i mentioned it before but like a month or two ago my company fired five people, four of which were like directly in my operations group. we are a bulk liquid e.xport team that specializes in fle.xi bags being loaded like... well, with bulk liquids lmao. its not super hard but it is TEDIOUS as fuck what i have to do on a daily basis.
i have direct contact with suppliers and traders purchasing from suppliers and i coordinate the full movement of product so basically customer tells me: i need X amt of product moved from point a in the usa to point b in the world. they specify, often, the particulars of like.. what steamship lines to use based on rate, or like on end destination preferences, and they expect us to typically coordinate the trucker to pick up food grade containers that then live load or transload at a supplier's plant and then get ingated back into whatever port terminal to get on a vessel and make specific arrival times at their end destination.
like idk some of u might even be in this industry too, so u kno what i mean.
the PROBLEM is that i am expected to get the booking with the ssl, coordinate the trucker, make sure the product gets loaded both within the customer's expected window + within a window where containers can be ingated against said booking's vessel, with OUT additional cost (so things can't sit on yards and get storage or detention for drivers or have additional legs in the trucking which means more money to pay trucker ect ect) and i have to load the amount the customer requests AND
Sometimes the product has to go on rail and that has specific regulations and sometimes the product is hazardous and has to be pre approved on the SSL to even be booked but the customer sent a request asking to load the next week so they get mad you dont get a confirmation within the same day because the haz approval has to be granted by the transhipment port half way across the world too because SOME ports don't take haz and some do but only certain kinds and and and and....
sometimes there is a vessel congestion in the ports or bad weather that shuts down ports or plants, or sometimes drivers have mechnical issues or just miss their fkn appts to load or show up with wrong equipment or ... or there is no container your driver can find because the ssl is out of them at that particular port location or...
yeah.
and so take that and then give me one account that is incredibly picky, sends requests last minute, mostly of randomly haz bullshit, and expects u to lick their boots....
and then another account where i am expected to maintain a perfect constant flow of bookings out of four different ports and the amount expected is like... ohhh 28 a week out of one, 10 out of another, 20 out of two others... and THEN that same customer sends you 75 FUCKING RAILCARS TO ONE SINGLE RAILSPUR/TRUCKER THAT CAN ONLY TRANSLOAD TWO A DAY, MAYBE FOUR TOPS, AND and your boss told them that there would be NO storage charged back to them so you have to now hope to god all the railcars dont show up at once because then you have to meet that four day vessel window and at MOST can load out like 10 of the railcars, if that, if you are lucky with perfect conditions but WHOOPS ALL 75 ARE THERE AT ONCE SO ACTUALLY fuck your life you get storage on 65 railcars and it shows on YOUR account that you lost money
and also?
you have to do the customs filing and documentation for destination arrival and have a window for that too and must have the info perfect or there is charges for fucking it up or containers getting stuck in customs at the destination...
yeah.
my co workers are overwhelmed and they have like maybe 60 containers on their desk a month?
my fucking dumb ass customer gives me a total currently of 450.
and yes, they fired people so i dont have a lot of back up until they hire someone new to take over this single stupid account so i can focus on others.
ive been working from like 6am to 7pm if not later because of this. im looking at other jobs but nothing pays as well currently and i technically like my team its just frustrating because ... yeah.
i hate this industry. i haaaaate it. supposedly im good at it but i dont care. i just want to survive having to pay rent or car payments and getting food, you know?
and i want to be able to do what i love which is write... and this job is melting my brain and just got exponentially more ugly within the last two weeks.
so anyway thats where im at and until i either change jobs or my desk chills out or they hire someone OR i get back on my adhd meds (lol that is really NOT helping to be off of them) im going to be slow.
but whatever, yall are great and i know those that want to will stick around so i appreciate you
thanks for coming to my ted talk bye

Tongariro National Park - du 22 au 24 avril
Le départ de Wellington se fait avec le mauvais temps. Nous nous étions habitués à savourer le soleil de Nouvelle-Zélande. La pluie nous accompagne pendant une bonne partie du trajet, à tel point qu'on distingue à peine les paysages qui sont censés nous époustoufler. Nous arrivons à destination de notre étape pour les deux prochaines nuits, un repère de montagnards. Le gérant nous accueille avec bonhomie et nonchalance. Il a beaucoup d'humour et cultive la dérision. Il reconnaît aux français leur courage de contestataires qui manque aux néo-zélandais. Nous suivons ses recommandations en allant au Schnapps bar, l'un des trois restaurants du village de Tongariro. L'établissement est bondé de monde. La bière coule à flot comme pour une kermesse bavaroise. On comprend que beaucoup sont venus pour la Tongariro alpine crossing de demain, l'une des plus belles randonnées de Nouvelle-Zélande.
Un grand et beau soleil s'offre à nous pour cette journée de randonnée que nous avons anticipée en allant la veille au visitor center pour être conseillés. Deux beaux circuits nous attendent. Le premier "Taranaki falls", une boucle de 6 km au départ de Ngauruhoe Terrace à Whakapapa Village. Le second "Silica rapids walk" long de 7 km. Le ciel est dégagé et nous pouvons admirer les 3 volcans du parc dont 2 sont toujours en activité, le Ngauruhoe et le Ruapehu, contrairement au Tongariro qui prête son nom au parc. Nous sommes ici dans l'une des zones volcaniques les plus actives du globe. En marchant, nous repensons au Mont Saint Helens dans l'état de Washington USA, un stratovolcan encore actif, que nous avions découvert en juin 2022. Une même impression de sérénité règne ici. Nous nous imprégnons de tout, de ce que nous voyons mais aussi des énergies souterraines qui nous dominent.
De retour au village pour dîner toujours au Schnapps bar, nous faisons la connaissance d'un couple de québécois qui s'est invité à notre table. Nous parlons voyage. Ils terminent un périple de 4 mois en Océanie pour fêter leur retraite. Ils ont cotisé pour pouvoir partir à l'âge de 58 ans. Et ne comprennent d'ailleurs pas pourquoi tant de contestation en France pour repousser la retraite à 64 ans. Le terme pénibilité, que nous évoquons pour justifier des carrières plus courtes, déclenche un rire hilare chez nos camarades de tablée. Nous passons une fort belle soirée dans tous les cas avant le départ le lendemain matin pour Rotorua. Comme la veille, nous nous arrêtons au food truck stationné Carroll street, le "Grillhaus", pour un café. Les propriétaires sont un couple fort sympathique avec qui nous discutons. Il est originaire d'Allemagne. Elle est originaire du Danemark. Ils sont heureux en Nouvelle-Zélande.

US election: Trump trolls Democrats by riding garbage truck, Schwarzenegger says he’s voting for Harris
US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump travelled in a garbage truck through the state of Wisconsin on Thursday after incumbent US leader Joe Biden called his supporters “garbage”, as action movie star and former Republican California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger threw his support behind Democratic candidate Kamala Harris for US President.
Trump rides a garbage truck
Democratic candidate Kamala Harris had hoped to spend the day building on last week’s “closing argument” that she made at a huge rally in Washington the night before, but instead she recoiled from Biden’s remark, which appeared to call Trump supporters “garbage.”
Harris later commented on Biden’s comparison of Trump supporters to garbage. She said she strongly disagreed with the criticism of groups of people based on which candidate they support. The White House, for its part, sent out a transcript pointing out that Biden did not say that Trump supporters were trash, but merely confused his words and condemns specifically the remarks made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at a Trump rally. The comedian compared Puerto Rico, which is a territory of the States, to a “floating island of garbage.”
Trump took advantage of the gaffe by staging a photo op, climbing into a garbage truck at a Wisconsin airport and taking questions from reporters.
Trump said from the cab of the vehicle:
“How do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honour of Kamala and Joe Biden.” 
Trump added later at his rally in Green Bay, still wearing his high-visibility jacket:
“You can’t be president if you hate the American people, which I believe they do.” 
Meanwhile, Harris travelled to North Carolina and on to Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, focusing again on three of the seven battleground states that could see battles and determine who wins the closest election in modern USA history.
In Madison, Wisconsin, she told supporters:
“Folks are exhausted and want it to stop, the pointing fingers. It is time that we start locking arms together as a people who rise and fall together.”
More than 57 million voters have already cast their ballots early or by mail, more than a third of the 2020 electorate.
Arnold Schwarzenegger makes rare presidential endorsement
Actor, former California governor and Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger said on Thursday that he will vote for Democrat Kamala Harris in the upcoming presidential election.
In a shocking statement, the actor wrote on X:
“I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.”
Despite this, the 77-year-old “Terminator” star said it was time for the country to “move forward” and that “the only way to do that is Harris and Waltz.”
Along with his endorsement, the actor gave a harsh assessment of Trump and predicted the chaos he would sow if he became president again. Schwarzenegger also wrote:
“We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that.”
At the same time, he acknowledged that Democrat policies are “hurting our cities by raising crime rates,” but even that doesn’t allow him to “abstract” and urge him to vote Republican. Schwarzenegger stressed that in order to win elections, one must “co-operate with the other side, not insult them.”
In his statement, the former California governor, without mentioning Donald Trump by name, said that “rejecting the results of the election is as un-American as it could ever be.”
In his lengthy statement, Schwarzenegger added:
“Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits and rejected election results.”
California’s 38th governor, who held office from 2003 to 2011, rarely endorses political candidates.
The election for the 47th president of the US will be held in November 2024, with Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican representative Donald Trump vying for the post.

VANCOUVER, CANADA, 21 - 24 June 2024
On 21st June, we took buses and a train to the Broadway/Commercial area of Vancouver to attend the festival which was being put on for National Indigenous Day. We were able to see some wonderful craft work on many stalls which had been created using traditional skills. Many women were wearing very attractive traditional “ribbon skirts” which are skirts made from bands of colourful ribbon sewn together. We were introduced to the local MP who had flown in from Ottawa to attend the festival. My relative P knew the MP as they worked together some years ago when the MP was a MLA ( member of the legislature for the Province of British Columbia). There was a music programme through the afternoon. We were fortunate to find some shade to listen to the entertainment:
Tumblr media
We returned to the hotel for a short time before making our way by bus and train again to the Waterfront. We then took the seabus across to the area of Vancouver called the North Shore. We went to visit the Friday evening market. This took place in and around the old shipyards. There were a huge number of stalls selling all types of artisan crafts as well as food trucks producing a wide range of foods.
Tumblr media
There was a huge area devoted to a Splash play area for children where they were having such fun:
Tumblr media
We walked down the pier to take in the view of Vancouver downtown. We were able to find a great table for dinner with a super view across the water. (The building with white sails is the cruise terminal).
Tumblr media
Dinner was very noisy as there was a TV on showing a key ice hockey match (6th match in a series of 7 in the Stanley Cup between the Edmonton Oilers and the Florida Panthers). There was an ecstatic atmosphere when the Canadian team won as it meant each team had won three matches. On our way back to the seabus, we passed this interesting photograph on a brick wall of the shipyard workers many years ago:
Tumblr media
On 22 June, we went to the science park area of the city to watch some of the Dragon Boat races in the Dragon Boat Festival. This was a huge event with teams from all over Canada and USA. There were a huge number of stalls showcasing services as well as artisan crafts with a focus on Chinese culture. There was a traditional parade of the Chinese dragon:
Tumblr media
We enjoyed watching many races. Here was the view of the boats speeding towards us:
Tumblr media
The rowers looked very tired after a race but the boats looked very picturesque in the water as the referee confirmed the race result:
Tumblr media
On 23 June, it was the National Day of Prayer for the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. We attended the morning service at Christ Church Cathedral in downtown Vancouver. Prior to the service we attended an hour’s lecture on the history of the renovation of the cathedral. It was built at the start of the 20th Century and has been extended, adapted and repaired several times. The cathedral had added a modern bell tower which was beautiful:
Tumblr media
We had lunch in the Art Gallery Restaurant and we were able to catch some lovely jazz music from youth jazz musicians playing in Robson Square.
On 24 June we took the bus again to Stanley Park. This time we walked around the waterfront towards the Lion’s Gate Bridge:
Tumblr media
We watched a heron on the water’s edge for some time. We then walked through some of the forest area to the Pavilion for lunch.
After returning to the hotel we prepared for the evening’s final match in the Ice Hockey’s Stanley Cup. Sadly for P the Edmonton Oilers were beaten by the Florida Panthers in the 7th decider match.

Global Top 3 Companies Accounted for 93% of total Automotive Plastic Tailgate market (QYResearch, 2021)
An automotive plastic tailgate refers to the rear door or hatch of a vehicle, typically found in SUVs, hatchbacks, and some trucks, that is made primarily or partially from plastic materials. The tailgate serves as an access point to the cargo area of the vehicle and can be opened and closed to load and unload items.
A plastic tailgate is typically made from high-strength plastics such as reinforced thermoplastics, fiberglass-reinforced composites, or carbon fiber composites. These materials are chosen for their lightweight properties, which can help improve fuel efficiency and reduce overall vehicle weight.

Whether road tripping cross-country or needing wheels for a weekend getaway, having a reliable rental car can make all the difference in your travel experience. With countless options to choose from, it helps to focus on the top national brands that consistently deliver quality vehicles and service. This guide will highlight the 10 best rental car companies in the USA based on factors like customer satisfaction, pricing, vehicle selection and policies. We'll break down the key strengths of the major national brands along with tips for getting your best rental experience. How We Evaluate the Top Rental Car Companies Several key criteria determine which providers rank as the leading rental car companies across America: Reputation and Reviews - Brands with higher consumer satisfaction scores and positive customer feedback.

Key Strengths: Some of the lowest base rental rates available Airport locations often closer than competitor brands Streamlined mobile app and online booking Optional liability insurance packages Blue Chip service provides expedited pick-up Given its budget pricing and limited frills, Thrifty works best for cost-conscious travelers who just need basic transportation from point A to point B. Younger vehicles are less common, so inspect thoroughly at pick-up for prior damage. 9.

Key Strengths: Competitive pricing, especially for longer rentals Good student and senior discounts offered Generous loyalty program benefits Sports and luxury car rentals available Mobile app and online booking simple Sixt allows spouse or partner as additional drivers free of charge. Given its growth and focus on customer satisfaction through technology, expect Sixt to continue rising in prominence as a rental car leader. 10.

se rates with price match guarantee Free membership in Advantage Club No fee for additional drivers on rentals Free cancellation on most reservations Airport shuttle service to select locations Advantage has fewer airport locations than bigger brands, but still serves all major metro areas. If you simply want the cheapest dependable rental car without extras, Advantage delivers solid value. Just know their fleet tends to be older. Tips for Getting the Best Rental Experience Regardless of which company you go with, you can maximize your rental satisfaction by keeping these top tips in mind: Join loyalty programs for perks like expedited service and free days Reserve 4-6 weeks out for optimum availability and low prices Read policies carefully to avoid hidden fees Use a rental aggregator site to compare prices Consider neighborhood locations to avoid airport surcharges Review insurance needs instead of paying for duplicative coverage Inspect thoroughly at pick-up and document any prior damage Fill the tank before returning to avoid inflated refueling charges Extend if needed since daily rates are cheaper than late charges Choosing the right rental company is pivotal, but following these simple guidelines will also let you make the most of the experience. FAQs Still have questions about navigating the rental car landscape? Here are answers to commonly asked questions: How old do I need to be to rent a car? In most states the minimum age to rent a vehicle is 21 years, while drivers under 25 often face added young renter fees. What form of payment do rental car companies accept? A credit card in your name must be presented to rent a vehicle - debit cards usually aren't accepted. Cash or prepaid cards cannot be used. Are there additional driver fees? Most major brands allow spouse or partners to drive at no cost. Otherwise plan on a daily fee around $10-15 per extra authorized driver added. Can I use my own insurance instead of the rental company's? Likely yes, but your personal policy may only cover liability protection. Check to avoid paying for duplicative damage coverage. How far in advance should I book a rental car? Ideally 4-6 weeks prior provides the best availability and rates. But even a few days notice can save substantially over walk-up rentals. While rental cars might seem like a commodity, choosing the right provider can greatly enhance or detract from your travels. Use these tips and company rankings to start your next road trip out on the smoothest footing. #Wiack #Car #CarInsurance #CarRental #CarPrice #AutoLoans

One day we sent 300 tandem milk trucks to one town and they process milk there and didn't have any and we've been sending it there and they sell it to people in California it is a giant business and they need every single drop of it and they doubled the order for today that's 1200 truckloads of milk and it's enough for all of Southern California for a day. And we have that kind of muscle we're also sending things like beef and poultry and eggs and we know that you guys love that out west and we do barter and we do accept certain forms of currency. We do not accept blabbing or threats we'll move on to the next party and if you're threatening our son there will be a halt in shipments like bja is getting a hell off for a day because of his paintball threat and we take it seriously and if you don't you get nothing huge loads of stuff for held back gigantic amounts of things that he didn't pay for yet and other people want it so they're ordering it.

New Post has been published on https://www.tempi-dispari.it/2023/06/05/skanners-una-storia-lunga-una-vita/
Skanners, una storia lunga una vita
Gli Skanners sono stati uno di quei gruppi che davvero avrebbero meritato di più. Tralasciando la più che longeva carriera, ciò che colpisce della loro storia è l’evoluzione. Stilistica, musicale, umana. Hanno iniziato con un hard rock che si muoveva sulle orme degli acerbi Dokken ma con maggiore energia. Poi si sono evoluti. Hanno indurito il sound, migliorato la tecnica, cambiato anche i componenti. Eppure mai si sono arresi. Anzi. a festeggiare il loro 40nni di carriera ci hanno pensato 9 dischi. Uno meglio dell’altro. Purtroppo in una patria miope e senza memoria, la band è rimasta sempre un fenomeno underground, anche se la Rai ha loro dedicato un documentario.
Di seguito la loro parabola, che ancora, per fortuna, non vere un punto di arrivo.
Contesto storico/culturale
Un tremendo incidente aereo funesta l’inizio anno: 78 morti vicino Washington, e non sarà il peggiore. A luglio un jet della PAN AM cade a New Orleans, con 154 morti. L’evento dell’anno è la guerra nelle Isole Falklands (Malvinas, per gli argentini) tra Inghilterra e Argentina. La guerra fu iniziata dalla giunta militare argentina, guidata dal generale Galtieri, che non si aspettava una reazione forte degli inglesi che si mobilitarono in massa. Dopo 10 settimane di violenti scontri la guerra ebbe termine con la riconquista inglese delle Isole.
E il Regno unito celebra anche Carlo e Diana, che al primo anniversario di matrimonio annunciano la nascita del figlio William. Il mondo intero, invece, piange la morte dell’ultima vera principessa, Grace di Monaco. La Philips annuncia l’uscita del compact disc, un nuovo supporto sui cui scrivere dati e musica, mentre esce nelle edicole “Usa today”, che con i suoi colori e grafici rivoluzionerà l’ingessato mondo dell’editoria.
Nobel per la letteratura a Gabriel Garcia Marquez, mentre “Time” nomina macchina dell’anno il computer, profetizzando che cambierà la nostra vita.
In Italia
A fine gennaio termina, con la liberazione dell’ostaggio, il sequestro del generale della Nato James Dozier, avvenuto a Verona. In aprile, in un agguato é ucciso il maggior rappresentante dell’opposizione siciliana, Pio La Torre. Tragedia a Todi, il 25 aprile: divampa un incendio nello storico Palazzo del Vignola, sede di una mostra di antiquariato, che causa 35 morti e oltre 40 feriti.
E’ giugno quando viene ritrovato impiccato sotto il “ponte dei frati neri” a Londra il banchiere Roberto Calvi, ex presidente del Banco Ambrosiano. A settembre, muore in un attentato di mafia il prefetto di Palermo, il generale dei carabinieri Carlo Alberto Dalla Chiesa, con la moglie e un uomo della scorta. Inizia la stagione delle tv private: a Canale 5 si affiancano Rete 4 e Italia Uno, mentre il patron di Parmalat Callisto Tanzi lancia Euro TV.
Molto prima dell’arrivo di McDonald’s il fast food italiano è tutto “made in Italy”, con Burghy e Kenny. Il primo viene lanciato a Milano e nel suo hinterland, con il locale numero uno a piazza San Babila che diventa sede ufficiale del “movimento paninaro” italiano, il secondo parte da Cortina d’Ampezzo, e oltre alla sede fisica nella località bellunese lancia in seguito anche la novità del food truck, con l'”hamburger house mobile”. Entrambe le iniziative resisteranno fino a metà degli anni ’90, quando il ciclone McDonald’s si abbatterà con forza sulla penisola con i suoi happy meal.
Sport e spettacolo
Quattro Oscar, tra cui miglior film, a “Momenti di gloria”, e trionfo anche per “I predatori dell’arca perduta”, con la nuova icona dell’avventura Indiana Jones. Ma il vero successo planetario per Steven Spielberg arriva in autunno, con l’uscita di “E.T.”. Tragedia durante le riprese del film tratto dalla serie “Ai confini della realtà”: un elicottero precipita e si schianta sull’attore Vic Morrow e su due giovani comparse, uccidendoli sul colpo.
In una indimenticabile notte spagnola, Dino Zoff alza al cielo la coppa del mondo: l’Italia è campione del mondo di calcio superando la Germania per 3 a 1. Continuando la serie d’oro delle squadre inglesi, l’Aston Villa è sul trono d’europa. North Carolina vince il campionato universitario di basket con un tiro decisivo di una matricola, tale Michael Jordan.
Giuseppe Saronni esplode in una fantastica volata ed è campione del mondo di ciclismo. In campo musicale, Phoebe Cates sbanca con “Paradise”, i Survivor con “Eye of the tiger”, colonna sonora di “Rocky 3”. Esce “Thriller”, l’album più venduto della storia, con oltre 45 milioni di copie, 7 singoli da top 10 e 8 Grammy awards. Michael Jackson è la persona più famosa del mondo. Vasco Rossi arriva ultimo a Sanremo con “Vado al massimo”. Viene commercializzato il Commodore 64: formerà generazioni di hacker e creatori di siti.
Tra tutto questo, nascono i bolzanini Skanners.
Gli Skanners si formano a Bolzano nel 1982 e nel 1983 rilasciano la prima demo. Nel 1986 esce il primo album Dirty Armada per la CGD, poi il gruppo parte per il tour in Italia e Austria.
Nel 1988 esce il secondo album del gruppo, Pictures of War sempre per la CGD e il gruppo va in tour con i grandi nomi dell’heavy metal, Motörhead, Girlschool, Saxon, Dio, Twisted Sister e Helloween e partecipano con loro al Monsters of Rock a Milano.
Anni ’90
In seguito alla chiusura della CGD nel 1988 e al successo del grunge e alla diminuzione di popolarità dell’heavy metal, il gruppo rimane inattivo per alcuni anni ma poi nel 1996 pubblica l’album The Magic Square per la Südton Records[2] e partecipano al tour dei Deep Purple.
Nel 1998 registrano vari concerti a Bolzano e pubblicano il primo live del gruppo, Live!.

Dopo aver confermato il nome in “terra tedesca” la band si esibisce al Gods of Metal Italy 2010 assieme a Labyrinth, Infernal Poetry, Sadist, Strana Officina, Raw Power, Bulldozer, Pino Scotto.
A gennaio 2011 la band rilascia il sesto album in studio, Factory of Steel prodotto e distribuito dalla SAOL / H\’art / Zebralution.

Nel 2013 la band festeggia i 30 anni di attività con uno spettacolo live al Teatro di S. Jakob a Bolzano, pubblicando un libro biografico dal titolo EINS ZWEI DREI METAL PARTY da parte dell’editore Crac con allegato un DVD THEIR STREET OF METAL prodotto da Riff Records contenente l’intera storia documentata in video. Per l’occasione speciale al concerto parteciparono anche gli ex componenti, che hanno contribuito alla storia degli Skanners.
Inizio anno scoppiettante per la band bolzanina che nel 2015 annuncia l’uscita del loro nuovo album CD Live + DVD, Eins,zwei,drei, metal party , (realizzato durante il concerto a S.Jakob di Bolzano, quando festeggiarono il terzo decennio di attività), prodotto dalla Riff Metal Department e distribuito in Italia per Goodfellas e Cargo per tutta l’Europa.
La band decide di dedicare il suo ottavo album interamente al loro ex chitarrista e membro fondatore, Max Quinzio, scomparso nel febbraio del 2014.
In seguito all’uscita del loro nuovo album CD Live + DVD, Eins, zwei, drei, Metal Party la band promuove il suo lavoro con numerosi show e festival In tutta Italia e Germania condividendo il palco con band di carattere mondiale come IN FLAMES al Rock im Ring Festival IT, SAVAGE a Roma, DARK FUNERAL e VADER all’In Flammen Open Air in Germania.

Nel 2016 dopo i vari cambiamenti dietro le quinte (creazione del sito ufficiale, contratti agenzie/manager) la band decide di chiudersi in studio per la stesura del nuovo album.
