Hello,My server doesnt appear on master list here port forward,Server command,Server when shows up, Please Help me,Im making admin whoever helps me ill contact you threw your steam.
Delete all your rules in your portforwarding it looks like a mess... You only need TCP/UDP 27015 forwarded to your private IP. The rest do nothing as no other inbound ports are needed to make connections to your server. Make sure you allow ALL outbound connections from your router / local network etc. By default most routers / modems enable this already.
Then from another network than you are hosted on check for the game server in the master list. Sometimes local network game servers will only show up in the LAN tab.
Also which game are you trying to setup? Also are you trying to run and play on the same computer?
What is your startup command line?
Sup,look capture2 bro and can you give me your steam pls ?
No, keep your communications on this forum.
And are you still getting this error?

Red Wings recall Pickard from Grand Rapids
DETROIT (AP) — The Detroit Red Wings recalled goalie Calvin Pickard from Grand Rapids of the AHL.
The Red Wings announced the move Thursday. Pickard played one game for the Red Wings earlier this season, a loss at Philadelphia on Nov. 29.
The 27-year-old Pickard has played in 105 NHL games, posting a 2.96 goals-against average for Colorado, Toronto, Philadelphia, Arizona and Detroit. He has a 3.03 GAA in 19 games for Grand Rapids this season.
The move by Detroit came after the Winnipeg Jets claimed goaltender Eric Comrie off waivers from the Red Wings.
The 24-year-old Comrie was selected by Winnipeg in the second round, 59th overall, of the 2013 draft and spent his first five professional seasons with the Jets franchise. He signed a two-year, $1.4 million contract extension with the Jets in September, but was waived before the start of the season when the team decided to go with the goaltending tandem of Connor Hellebuyck and Laurent Brossoit. Comrie was claimed by Arizona and played four games with Tucson of the AHL before being traded to Detroit on Nov. 30 for defenseman Vili Saarijarvi.
Detroit plays at Toronto on Saturday night.

Cannabis Oil vs. Hemp Oil
Against a shifting regulatory landscape, the distinction between hemp and other forms of cannabis is fast becoming moot.
By Martin A. Lee
In the botanical world, there are, broadly speaking, two kinds of cannabis – hemp plants and drug plants. Hemp plants include plants grown for fiber and plants grown for seed oil. Drug plants include intoxicating THC-rich plants and non-intoxicating CBD-rich plants.
The main difference between hemp plants and drug plants is resin content. Industrial hemp plants are low-resin plants. Drug plants are high-resin plants. "Marijuana" (spelled with a 'j' or 'h') is the colloquial name for the flower tops of high resin cannabis.
Industrial hemp varieties are typically grown from pedigree seed, yielding as many as one hundred tall, skinny, bamboo-like plants (with skimpy foliage) per square meter. These plants are machine harvested and manufactured into many different products like paper, cloth, and edible oil.
Drug plants, by comparison, are typically grown from asexually reproduced clones, one to two bushy plants per square meter, and its flowers are hand-harvested, dried, trimmed and cured. The flowers are then consumed for their intoxicating and medicinal effects.
It's All About the Resin
U.S. federal law originally defined marihuana in terms of resin content. Resin was mentioned no less than three times in the two-sentence definition of "marihuana" encoded in the 1970 Controlled Substances Act (CSA), which was copied word-for-word from the 1937 Marihuana Tax Act, the legislation that made cannabis effectively illegal:
The term "marihuana" means all parts of the plant Cannabis sativa L. [sic], whether growing or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of such plant; and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such plant, its seeds or resin. Such term does not include the mature stalks of such plant, fiber produced from such stalks, oil or cake made from the seeds of such plant, any other compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such mature stalks (except the resin extracted therefrom), fiber, oil or cake, or the sterilized seed of such plant which is incapable of germination.
In essence, the CSA asserts that certain parts of the plant ("mature stalk" and "sterilized seed") are exempt from the legal definition of marijuana. But the flowers, the leaves, and the sticky resin were not included in this exemption. The resin and its derivatives were explicitly forbidden wherever they are found on the plant.
The CSA was unequivocal on this point: the resin from any part of the cannabis plant, or any preparation made from the resin, is illegal. Fiber produced from hemp stalk and oil pressed from unfertilized hempseed got a pass, but not the resin.
But as far as medicinal and recreational cannabis goes, the resin is where the action is. Cannabis resin is contained within the heads of tiny, mushroom-shaped trichomes, found mainly on the plant's odiferous female flowers (the buds) and to a lesser extent on the leaves. The sticky, gooey resin contains THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol), along with hundreds of other secondary plant metabolites (primarily other cannabinoids and terpenes) that augment human brain chemistry and ease physiological and psychological distress.
Hemp seed oil, it should be noted, is not the same as CBD-rich oil extracted from the flowers and leaves of the plant. Oil pressed from hemp seed contains no CBD, no THC, no plant cannabinoids to speak of, but it's excellent for making varnish, paint, soap, protein-enriched food supplements, and much more.
When Is CBD Legal and When Isn't It?
A Tiny Amount of THC
Right from the start, the Feds understood that resin content is the key factor that distinguishes marijuana from industrial hemp. Today, however, federal law includes a recently added caveat that officially characterizes industrial hemp as having no more than 0.3 percent THC by dry weight. Products containing such a tiny amount of THC should not have an intoxicating effect.
Where did the 0.3 percent THC figure come from? It stems from a 1976 taxonomic report by Canadian plant scientists Ernest Small and Arthur Cronquist., who never intended for 0.3 percent THC to function as a legal demarcation between hemp and other forms of cannabis.
But that's exactly what happened. According to current federal law, cannabis is considered hemp – not marijuana – as long as no part of the plant (including the leaves and flowers) exceeds a THC concentration of "more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis." Any plant that tops 0.3 percent THC is considered marijuana and is therefore federally illegal to grow, according to Uncle Sam.
The passage of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (otherwise known as the Farm Bill) defined "industrial hemp" for the first time in U.S. history and distinguished it legally from marijuana. The '0.3 percent THC or less' qualification for hemp was enshrined in Section 7606 of the Agricultural Act and renewed when Congress approved the 2018 Farm Bill.
There was no mention of resin in the 2018 Farm Bill, which a cynic might refer to as the 'Keep Marijuana Illegal Bill.' To put it bluntly, the 0.3 percent THC legal limit is an arbitrary, impractical, euphoria-phobic relic of reefer madness. Although it lacks a scientific basis, it has become the latest lynchpin of cannabis prohibition, a dishonest, anachronistic policy that impedes medical discovery and blocks patient access to valuable therapeutic options, including herbal extracts with various combinations of CBD and THC.
Sourcing CBD
Despite its shortcomings, the Farm Bill is a momentous leap forward. It is now legal for American farmers to cultivate hemp as a commercial crop on domestic soil – a long overdue development catalyzed by the huge public demand for CBD.
On the day it became law (December 20, 2018), the Farm Bill removed hemp, but not cannabis, from the list of controlled substances. The Farm Bill also explicitly removed hemp products, including hemp-derived CBD, from the purview of CSA – but not from the purview of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which maintains that hemp-derived CBD is neither a legitimate food supplement nor a medication approved for off-label use.
Meanwhile, CBD oil derived from any cannabis plant with over 0.3 percent THC remains a Schedule 1 substance under federal law. It's unclear how regulators will tell the difference between illegal cannabis-derived CBD oil and seemingly not-illegal, hemp-derived CBD oil given that the actual CBD molecule is the same.
The best source of CBD oil is organically grown, high-resin, CBD-rich cannabis not low-resin industrial hemp. Why? Because the more resin in the plant, the more CBD there is to extract. Low-resin industrial hemp grown for fiber or seed oil is not an optimal source of CBD for several reasons:
Industrial hemp typically contains far less cannabidiol than high-resin CBD-rich cannabis, so a large amount of industrial hemp is required to extract a small amount of CBD. This raises the risk of contaminants as hemp is a "bio-accumulator"— meaning the plant naturally draws toxins from the soil. That's wonderful for phyto-remedial purposes, but it's not so great for making ingestible medicinal oil products. Oil extracted from hemp and cannabis will concentrate the toxins as well as the good stuff
CBD oil is often a co-product or byproduct of industrial hemp grown primarily for another purpose. Farmers can make additional money if they sell their unused hemp biomass to a business that wants to extract CBD from the leftovers. This dual-use practice is widespread and barely regulated, if at all, and the hemp biomass is often tainted with residues of pesticides and toxic solvents that are used to extract the CBD.
Heavily refined CBD paste or CBD-isolate derived from industrial hemp is poor starter material requiring dilution for formulating CBD-rich oil products.
Compared to high-resin cannabis, low-resin hemp is more vulnerable to pest and mold infestation because the resin contains terpenes as well as cannabinoids that repel predators, attract beneficial insects, and protect plants from blight.
Industrial hemp is less chemically diverse than high resin cannabis, lacking the robust mix of medicinal terpenes and secondary cannabinoids commonly found in high resin cannabis. These compounds interact with CBD and THC to enhance their therapeutic benefits.
The Future of High-CBD Hemp
Beyond Cannabis vs Hemp
Prior to the 2018 Farm Bill, most of the CBD products available in the United States were derived from low-resin industrial hemp grown in Europe and China. Now that cultivating hemp is legal again in the United States, it should be easier to obtain better quality CBD products made from hemp grown in Colorado, Kentucky, Oregon, Montana, Vermont and other states.
The most prodigious source of cannabidiol are high-resin CBD-rich cannabis plants that tip the scales at 20 percent CBD by dry weight and around one percent THC. Unfortunately, under the current legal regime that's too much THC to qualify as hemp, even though anyone who smoked the resinous flower tops wouldn't get high because CBD is not intoxicating like THC. It can, however, do a person a world of good if they are struggling with pain or anxiety or depression.
Cannabis is a highly adaptable botanical; it can thrive in various environments, legal and ecological. It responds well to the human hand, which has stretched the genetic capabilities of the plant in unprecedented ways.
Against a shifting regulatory landscape, the distinction between hemp and other forms of cannabis is fast becoming moot. American horticulturists are successfully breeding high-resin cannabis varietals that satisfy the Farm Bill's criteria for hemp – with THC measuring below 0.3 percent and double-digit CBD levels by dry weight.
In other words, farmers are now growing high resin cannabis ("marijuana") with less than 0.3 percent THC. If that sounds a bit confusing, that's because it is a bit confusing. But this much is clear: If grown, extracted and processed well, these CBD-rich plants qualify as good starter material for manufacturing CBD oil for medicinal and personal use.

Former Czech Republic Ambassador, Alabama Legislator, and Businessman Was in the Vanguard of the Tort Reform Movement
Dana Beyerle April 15, 2015	Uncategorized Comments Off on Former Czech Republic Ambassador, Alabama Legislator, and Businessman Was in the Vanguard of the Tort Reform Movement 828 Views
Alabama businessman William "Bill" Cabaniss Jr. has worn many hats but his early battle to change the state's Jackpot Justice image is high up on his legacy ladder. A new biography tells the story of Cabaniss as a successful businessman, a ground-breaking Republican member of the Alabama House and Senate, a friend of presidents, and a U.S. Ambassador to the Czech Republic.
Cabaniss was one of four Republicans elected to the House in 1978, a watershed year for the GOP that portended the future of a two-party state and the beginning of the end of domination by a singular political system that had held a lock on state politics for more than 100 years.
Cabaniss was elected to the state Senate in 1982, as a Republican, one of three in the 35-member body. He was reelected in 1983 in a court-ordered statewide election and again in 1986 when major candidates ran on a platform of tort reform.
That was one year after creation of the Business Council of Alabama that began to seek legal and political fairness for state businesses. At that time Alabama's laws favored trial lawyers to the point that major industries would not locate in Alabama due to unfair laws that essentially allowed trial lawyers to raid business treasuries almost at will.
Cabaniss made that exact point Tuesday when he spoke to a BCA board of directors meeting prior to a book signing.
As an outside salesman for his manufacturing company, Precision Grinding Inc., Cabaniss said, customers often told him why they wouldn't locate in Alabama.
"'We didn't come to Alabama because your politics stinks'," Cabaniss said he was told, referring to the justice system that has been called Tort Hell.
Needless to say that's when he became interested in politics. "Those comments by businesses in the South made such an impression on me that I jumped into the process," he said.
The 1986 election was a watershed year for business. Voters chose conservative Democrats who elected a tort-reform minded House speaker and the first Republican governor in more than a century, Guy Hunt.
Realizing they went together, Cabaniss introduced tort reform and ethics reform bills.
A package or tort reform bills were passed but trial lawyers ganged up and got the Supreme Court to overturn them. It would take historic court elections in the mid-1990s with significant BCA help to correct unjust laws and a court philosophy that penalized Alabama businesses.
"It was a new day thanks to you all," Cabaniss told BCA board members.
BCA 2015 Chairman Marty Abroms of Abroms & Associates PC in Florence commented about Cabaniss' early reform efforts. "Thank you, you kicked it off," Abroms said.
In 1988 Cabaniss helped the Alabama presidential campaign of then-Vice President George H.W. Bush, who was elected. In 1990, Cabaniss ran unsuccessfully for the U.S. Senate in a campaign highlighted by class warfare by the Democrat, incumbent Sen. Howell Heflin.
But his political career did not end. In 2004, President George W. Bush appointed Cabaniss as ambassador to the Czech Republic, an office he held for two years. He said those two years strengthened his appreciation for the United States and Alabama.
"The opportunity to represent the United States in the Czech Republic was an unbelievable experience," Cabaniss said.
Recognition continued for Cabaniss. BCA 2010 Chairman Sandy Stimpson referred to Cabaniss as a "statesman" and "true gentleman" when presenting him with the 2010 Chairman's Award for Leadership and Distinguished Service.
Cabaniss said that about four years ago a church member, Worth Earlwood "Woody" Norman Jr., approached him about writing an autobiography. Soon Norman offered to write a biography.
After contemplating, Cabaniss agreed and the collaboration produced the just-released William Jelks Cabaniss, Jr., Crossing Lines, In His Business, Political, and Diplomatic Life. Cabaniss signed books following the BCA board of directors meeting.

What did we do for Hem 23?
Hem 23 was a full design and build for SHELTER. Owner, Tuan Lam wanted a space that reminded him of the alleyways of his hometown in Saigon (Hem means alleyway in Vietnamese). After visiting Vietnam we were able to gain a strong feel for what Hem 23 should encompass. We were able to completely brand the restaurant as well as build out a website and start their social media. We created interior design layouts and renderings and created color and material palettes that you see in the restaurant today. We enjoyed creating completely custom booths, tables, bar stools, bar racks, shelving, art installations on all walls, railing, pretty much everything.
Last November we took a work trip to Vietnam with the owner. We traveled the entire country from the north to the south and checked out as many locations as we could fit in during our two week trip. This was a very authentic trip; we were able to visit small remote towns and stay in homes with dirt floors, we stayed in presidential suites in large cities on the coast, we toured Ha Long Bay by boat and we hiked along the high mountain rice fields. It was a very eye opening trip where we were able to gain a true, authentic and raw experience that we used as inspiration for the build out of the space. While traveling around Vietnam you become inundated by the textures, colors and people of the country, the feeling which we wanted to evoke in the space. We call it a tasteful textural overload.
The multiple wall textures and tile work that we used throughout the space.
When Does Hem 23 open?
The grand opening for Hem 23 is set for January 26th! They will be giving away gift cards to the first 31 guests (1st Guest = $100 | Next 5 Guests $50 | Next 25 Guests $25). Early bird gets the worm.


Once a year, thousands upon thousands of people transcend on Austin for one and a half weeks of hundreds of events surrounding film, music and speakers. SXSW is one of the most fun times of the year in our opinion. Why? Because the city comes alive with activity, it's usually the first warm week of the year, and because of the word, FREE!
Unlike most other festivals, you don't actually have to purchase a ticket to enjoy SXSW. So many brands, bars, retail shops and hotels host their own unofficial events for the public to enjoy. In the past, we've seen Spoon, Dashboard Confessional, Third Eye Blind, Brandi Cyrus, Midland and French Montana around town, for free! Usually, we just wander the city and stop in spots we like, and see what they have going on! And then there are also micro festivals like Luck Reunion and Revival, that do charge a ticket, but provide some of the coolest experiences!
So what are the highlights of SXSW? After a couple years under our belt, these are what we most looking forward to!
New this year, Revival Experience is excited to invite just a very small group of 500 people to Camp Lucy to enjoy a one-day mini immersive music experience of Americana and Country, featuring Shakey Graves and Nathaniel Rateliff. There will be complimentary food and drinks, activations and more, among the live music on this beautiful ranch outside of Austin!
The amazing Hotel San Jose is bringing back its annual FREE multi-day music festival, South x San Jose. Held in its parking lot next to Jo's Coffee, you'll experience dozens of bands and singer/songwriters, local vendors and good times! The music begins at noon and goes all day long, and their mini festival is always free. If it's warm enough out, head inside the hotel property too, and enjoy a frozé by the pool!
Lucy's Fried Chicken brings four days of live music all day to their South Congress location on the patio! It's kid friendly and totally free to attend - no RSVP required! And there will be fried chicken and cold beer awaiting your arrival!
Luck Reunion is hands down one of our favorite days of the year! Willie Nelson invites a few thousand people to his ranch where a mini Western town-movie set lies, to enjoy a one-day music festival. Per the description on the website, "the goal is to attract and celebrate musicians, artisans, and chefs, who like the outlaws and outliers before them, follow their dreams without compromise." There's Americana and American roots music throughout the day on multiple stages, interactive fun, food trucks, complimentary drinks and, of course, the legendary Willie Nelson closing the day out!
Our other favorite day of the year! The annual CinderBLOCK PARTY from local Dallas music production company, Cinderblock is BACK and bigger than ever! Imagine a music festival mixed with a pool party mixed with all the free drinks and vendors - that's what you'll experience at this party, taking place 20 minutes outside of Austin at a beautiful mansion on Saturday March 16th!
Join Tito's, Bumble and PrideBites are back for their annual puppy party benefitting Austin Pets Alive! Taking place the last day of SXSW at Lustre Pearl on Rainey St, there will be doggy photo booths, St. Patrick Day surprises, awesome drawings, complimentary doggie snack samples and a free drink if you show Bumble your profile!
Just across the street from Whole Foods, you'll find one of the best record stores in the county: Waterloo Records. During the last three days of SXSW, Waterloo Records also sets up a free multi-day music festival in its parking lot! Via one huge stage, you'll enjoy some great live acts…two years ago, we saw Spoon perform!


It has been an uneventful week. The tiny natives have been more subdued than usual as they recovered from the sickness that ravaged the island. However, recent events prove that they are fast returning to their usual selves. I found Chunkacabra injured, bleeding heavily from the knee. Upon following the trail of blood, the culprit was discovered: a stray head of a shaving razor. My Co-Captain assures me that he takes pains to deposit such hazardous waste in the garbage. But cabinet locks and stinking waste receptacles are no match against the elder two natives, who look for trouble wherever they may find it. Sassquatch has admitted to opening the garbage can, and claims that the Loch Mess Monster procured the discarded razor blade from its depths, where he then laid a clever trap aimed at Chunkacabra's crawling knees. She will survive–this time–but I find myself worrying for her future.
I fear I have grown attached to these creatures.

El Área metropolitana de Bogotá es una conurbación colombiana constituida por Bogotá y sus municipios aledaños. Debido a su falta de oficialidad, los asentamientos que la integran y sus límites no están definidos. El 16 de junio de 2020 fue aprobada por el Congreso de la República la creación de la Región Metropolitana Bogotá-Cundinamarca.

La conurbación está compuesta por: Bogotá como su centro y por los municipios de Bojacá, Cajicá, Chía, Cogua, Cota, El Rosal, Facatativá, Funza, Gachancipá, La Calera, Madrid, Mosquera, Nemocón, Soacha, Sibaté, Sopó, Subachoque, Tabio, Tenjo, Tocancipá, Zipacón y Zipaquirá. Su población ascendía a 7,881,156 habitantes en 2005, según el último censo nacional realizado por el DANE, extrapolados a 9,348,588 en el año 2015, y se estima que la población total supera los 10,700,000 en 2020 lo cual la convierte en el área metropolitana más grande de Colombia, una de las mayores de Sudamérica y es la 32.ª mayor área metropolitana del mundo.

Divisiones
El área metropolitana de Bogotá está conformada por ; (fuente DANE)

Perímetro urbano
Dentro de la normatividad jurídica de Bogotá existe el llamado perímetro urbano. Este corresponde a una línea que separa en teoría a la ciudad de Bogotá de las zonas rurales del Distrito Capital. Esta línea de perímetro urbano define a la ciudad completamente contenida dentro de los límites del Distrito; sin embargo, se extiende hasta los límites del Distrito sobre el río Bogotá, limitando con los municipios de Cota, Funza, Mosquera y Soacha.

El perímetro urbano define los límites bajo los cuales las empresas de servicios públicos pueden facturar el servicio como urbano; por fuera de la misma se facturaría como servicio rural. Este perímetro urbano no define con precisión los límites del desarrollo urbano de la ciudad de Bogotá, habiendo zonas no desarrolladas al interior (con economía de tipo rural, por ejemplo, producción agropecuaria primaria), y zonas urbanizadas por fuera del perímetro.

Municipios aledaños

Los municipios cercanos a la ciudad de Bogotá tienen diferentes grados de integración con la ciudad. Soacha es el único municipio cuyo casco urbano está completamente integrado a la ciudad de Bogotá. Mosquera, Funza, Cota y Chía tienen distintos grados de integración urbana o suburbana. Otros municipios podrían considerarse ciudades dormitorio, albergando a personas que laboran en Bogotá u otros municipios del área.

Soacha
Soacha es el único municipio cuyo casco urbano se integra totalmente al casco urbano de Bogotá, con las localidades de Bosa y Ciudad Bolívar, y dispone de un corredor de transporte urbano entre algunos barrios de este municipio con algunas localidades de Bogotá.

Municipios parcialmente integrados
El perímetro urbano de Bogotá se extiende hasta el río Bogotá, limitando con los municipios de Mosquera, Funza y Cota (Sector de Siberia). Sobre estos límites, cruzando el río, existen desarrollos urbanísticos, principalmente industriales pero también residenciales, que son adjuntos a la ciudad de Bogotá, si bien separados de los cascos urbanos de las respectivas cabeceras municipales.

Igualmente, el casco urbano de la cabecera municipal de Cota colinda con el Distrito Capital en una zona exterior al Perímetro Urbano de Bogotá, en la localidad de Suba y Engativá, habiendo desarrollo urbano comercial y residencial colindante dentro del Distrito y unidos por la Avenida Suba-Cota. Este fenómeno se presenta también con el municipio de Chía,  cuya extensión urbana sobrepasa el límite del Distrito en el sector de Guaymaral (localidad de Suba) y el municipio de Cota.

Chía y Cajicá tienen a su vez parcialmente integrados sus cascos urbanos. Al igual que Cogua y Zipaquirá

En la vía que conduce de Bogotá a La Calera hay un desarrollo residencial y comercial de densidad urbana al interior del Distrito, por fuera del perímetro urbano, el cual se extiende dentro del municipio de La Calera.

Si se consideran densidades suburbanas de sitios con economía mixta urbana (p. ej. empresarial y residencial) y rural (p. ej. agropecuaria), Sibaté, Mosquera, Funza, Madrid, Cota, Chía, Cajicá, formarían un primer anillo metropolitano, junto con Bogotá y Soacha.

Ciudades dormitorio
Dentro de la posible región metropolitana de la Sabana de Bogotá, hay cuatro núcleos urbanos principales: la ciudad de Bogotá, Soacha, Facatativá y Zipaquirá, esta última es ciudad intermedia. Bogotá es el principal centro urbano, no solo del área metropolitana, sino de todo el país y el norte de Suramérica, concentrando sectores industriales, empresariales, comerciales, residenciales, educativos, entre muchos otros.

Las fuentes de trabajo que ofrece la ciudad de Bogotá son atendidas por personas que residen no solo en Bogotá, sino también en varios de los municipios cercanos, principalmente Soacha, Mosquera, Funza, Cota, Chía y La Calera. Igualmente, parte de las actividades económicas que se desarrollan en algunos municipios cercanos, principalmente los cultivos de flores, son cubiertos por personas que residen en Bogotá y en otros municipios de la región.

Facatativá, Chía y Zipaquirá poseen centros urbanos propios, con una importante actividad industrial y educativa que se convierten a sí mismos en centros de conmutación intermunicipal en la región y también sirven a Bogotá. Un caso similar, pero a menor escala, sucede con Tocancipá, en el que la interconexión con Bogotá influye en los sitios turísticos que allí se encuentran (por ejemplo, Parque Jaime Duque, el Autódromo/Kartódromo, etc.).

Entre los municipios que cubren la oferta laboral de Bogotá se encuentran principalmente Soacha, Mosquera, Funza, Madrid, Chía, Cajicá, Cota, La Calera, Tenjo, Tabio, Sibaté, Zipaquirá y Facatativá. Este último municipio, a su vez, es servido por Madrid, El Rosal, Subachoque y por la misma Bogotá. .

Hay dos fenómenos que inciden en el crecimiento de las ciudades dormitorio:

 El centro urbano principal atrae, por su oferta laboral o educativa, a personas que residen originalmente en los municipios aledaños.
 Personas que originalmente residen o trabajan en el centro urbano principal se asientan en los municipios aledaños buscando condiciones de vida diferentes a las de la ciudad.

Muchos desarrollos urbanos y suburbanos unidos a Bogotá, principalmente en los municipios de Chía (La Caro, Yerbabuena, Sindamanoy, Santa Ana de Chía, Hacienda Fontanar), Sopó (Aposentos), Cota (Siberia, Vizcaya) y Madrid (Hacienda Casablanca), corresponden a esta segunda causa.

Distrito Capital

Cuando se creó el Distrito Especial de Bogotá en 1955, parte de su objetivo era integrar y funcionar como la futura área metropolitana de Bogotá. Además del municipio de Bogotá, se integraron los municipios de Usaquén, Suba, Fontibón, Engativá (parte del cual luego fue anexado a Fontibón), Bosa y Usme (del que luego se segregó Tunjuelito al quedar totalmente unida a la ciudad). A Chapinero (que había sido el primer barrio satélite de la ciudad desde 1812) se le integró directamente como barrio dentro del perímetro urbano. En los años 1960, por razones principalmente concernientes al orden público, grandes sectores rurales del sur del departamento de Cundinamarca, correspondientes al páramo de Sumapaz, se integraron al Distrito Especial.

La ciudad de Bogotá y los cascos urbanos de las cabeceras municipales de estos municipios anexos, fueron creciendo hasta fundirse casi totalmente. En 1991, cuando se expidió una nueva Constitución en Colombia, eran indistinguibles los límites urbanos entre la ciudad de Bogotá y los municipios anexos (salvo el antiguo casco urbano de Usme). La nueva Constitución, que incluye un estatuto orgánico para Bogotá, redefine el Distrito Especial como Distrito Capital y elimina el concepto de «municipio anexo» para introducir el concepto de «localidad». De las veinte localidades definidas, diecinueve parten a la ciudad, algunas incluyendo alguna zona rural adyacente.

La Localidad de Usme incluye así al casco urbano de Usme (no integrado urbanísticamente a la ciudad de Bogotá), parte de la Ciudad de Bogotá con múltiples barrios y extensas zonas rurales al suroriente de la ciudad. La localidad de Ciudad Bolívar incluye una franja densamente habitada de barrios en la ciudad de Bogotá y extensas áreas rurales al suroccidente de la ciudad. La localidad de Sumapaz es la única localidad que no divide a la ciudad de Bogotá, y cubre casi toda la mitad sur del Distrito Capital.

Si bien Sumapaz posee algunos centros urbanos, estos son muy pequeños y ninguno sería considerado «cabecera municipal». La sede de la alcaldía local de Sumapaz se encuentra fuera de la localidad, en el barrio Américas, en la ciudad de Bogotá, en lo que geográficamente correspondería a la localidad de kennedy.

Si bien desde un punto de vista jurídico la localidad de Sumapaz sería parte del área metropolitana de Bogotá, desde un punto de vista urbanístico, Sumapaz y las grandes extensiones rurales de Usme y Ciudad Bolívar no formarían parte de un área metropolitana.

Recently, German automaker Volkswagen announced that they were recalling an undisclosed amount of their vehicles in China over safety issues. Though many Americans would not be concerned about a recall taking place in China, it is another example of recalls that have taken place so far as the first quarter of 2013 has not even ended yet.
Today, Chrysler and GM are two more companies that are joining the 'recall trend' as they announced a combined total of about 29,000 cars need to be replaced over safety issues.
Chrysler has announced that they are recalling approximately 2,500 Dodge Challengers due to a possible short-circuit that has the potential to cause a fire. The company said that if the short-circuit was to take place, the wire harness could end up overheating and the result would be a fire.
The vehicles affected are all 2013 Dodge Challengers that have V-6 engines and assembled over an eight week period ending on January 24th, 2013.
According to Chrysler, those owners affected by the recall are being contacted through the mail and phone. The drivers are being told that effective immediately, to stop driving their vehicles well as to notify their dealers. Also, owners are being advised that they should not leave their cars in or near any structures.
While repairs are being completed, Chrysler will provide owners with free loaner cars to use. Though they say that 4,459 vehicles in total are part of the recall, roughly 1,900 of those cars are reported to be in the hands of dealers.
The second involves GM and their recall is more massive than Chrysler. An estimated 26,500 of the 2013 Cadillac SRX crossover and Buick LaCrosse are being recalled due to a software issue that might enable the automatic transmission to shift out of manual mode.
Those cars that are affected have a Driver Shift Control feature. With it, the driver can shift the automatic transmission seem similar as if it had manual transmission.
According to a report filed by GM to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the defective software could cause the transmission to unexpectedly shift from manual mode to automatic transmission, thus removing any transmission-related engine breaking. The NHTSA says that a crash might occur if there is a sudden loss in engine breaking.
GM states in the report that in order for manual mode to be re-engaged, the driver needs to move the shift lever to Drive and then put back to manual mode.
The recall is said to officially begin on March 28 and the company will notify owners on what to do as the dealers will fix the transmission control problem at no charge.
Those affected range from 1,861 Buick LaCrosse, which were built between April 25-March 6, and 24,752 Cadillac SRX vehicles built from May 29-February 18.
Twenty-five hundred 2013 Dodge Challenger owners are being urged to park their car immediately after this weekend's recall for a short circuit in the 3.6-liter engine. Seven fires have been reported, but no injuries.
Chrysler is also telling owners not to park their vehicles near anything flammable until they are looked at.
Owners can call 1-800-CHRYSLER to see if their vehicles are affected.

Here is my plan for tomorrow all written up on the board. Please don't judge my printing; I'll never have "teacher writing". After an assembly to figure out where everyone is going we will have a busy busy day! I'm not sure how we will fit it all in, or if we will, but we shall do our best. I've even got two writing activities planned.
Every desk has a pencil and eraser inside ready to go. The kids bring their own supplies, but I'll deal with those on the weekend. That's all they will need tomorrow anyhow. On top of their desk is their agenda, a smiley face pencil and an owl bookmark. I really wanted to do a cute welcoming gift, I really did. I have in the past. I just didn't get there this year.
I labeled the coat hooks with owls to coordinate through my room. Everyone has a basket as well for their lunch kit, agenda, toques, and mitts throughout the day, and their shoes at night. Those have the same owl on them. Unfortunately, MacTac didn't stick to those baskets. I had to use packing tape. It's all bumpy and overlapping and I don't like it. It's the little things that get me, folks.
Lastly, I made a third set of the owls which I laminated and added a magnet to the back of each. These will go on my white board for my daily voting question.
Whew, that's a lot of labeling. I'm going to bed early tonight. Can't wait to meet my kiddos!
If my students ever complain that they can't read it, I just tell them that it's practice for college!

Corporation income tax
Foreign spin-offs
Section 86.1 of the Income Tax Act allows Canadian resident shareholders of foreign corporations to make a special election in respect of certain eligible distributions of spin-off shares. This election is available for qualifying shareholders who are individuals, trusts, and corporations.
A qualifying shareholder who makes this election can exclude from income the amount that would otherwise be considered a taxable foreign dividend. However, the adjusted cost base (ACB) of the spin-off shares will not be their fair market value as would otherwise be the case. Instead, the ACB will be based on the cost of the original shares that generated the distribution of the spin-off shares. This cost will be allocated between the original shares and the spin-off shares.
See the following pages for more information on this special election and the foreign spin-offs that are eligible, and for an example of the calculation of the ACB when an election is made.

I really enjoy playing the accordion. I have an older Art Van Damme model Excelsior. I love to play it. I like to play the latin beats too. One of my favorites is "Its Now or Never." You will also find some pictures of accordions and some music. I have a sing-a-long page with midi files. Enjoy the page and come back often.


I've never been a fan of pure mathematics. Even though I must admit that pure maths bears a lot of elegance, it's real-world applicability that makes mathematical discoveries shine.
Boy oh boy, how time flies! It's summertime again, at least in the northern hemisphere, on this planet, and what a great time it is for drinking plenty of highballs. For those of you who don't know: highballs are simple long drinks that are made up of two ingredients: liquor (eg. gin, whisk(e)y, rum) and a non-alcoholic beverage (eg. soda, juice, cola).
Even though there are usually only two ingredients it is not that easy to make a perfect highball. It all depends on the right mixture. Some like their highballs stronger, others lighter. So how do you determine the perfect ratio? The task is complicated by the fact that the strength of the liquor used might vary (for instance, rums come with alcoholic strength levels reaching from 35% to 80%).
In this equation, Vn is the volume (amount) of non-alcoholic beverage, Vl is the volume (amount) of liquor, R is the mix ratio, Sl is the alcoholic strength of the liquor used and Sh is the desired target strength of the resulting highball. Isn't this wonderful?
As an example, I happen to like my highballs with a strength of 10% and most liquor in Europe is sold with a strength of 40%. What's the recipe for a perfect Gin and Tonic? Answer: 40% divided by 10% is four, minus one is three. Therefore, you would need three parts of tonic water for one part of Gin to make me smile.
If you prefer a 5% Gin and Tonic (are you a wimp, by any chance?), note that you will need seven parts of tonic water, not six, as a naive would-be drinks mixer would expect.
There you have it — the formula for perfect, repeatable quality drinks. People in the same spirit (pun intended!) — let's raise our glasses to this discovery!
I know, I know. Some of you smug, mathematically inclined folks with an IQ of 180+ would probably have known this right away. I don't mind if you point out that my pathetic "discovery" is obviously just a special case of something more profound. Congratulations! I will drink a very special toast to you tonight.

My non-profit grassroots advocacy organization recently won a huge free speech victory in a Nevada Supreme Court case, but the work of defending our First Amendment rights against government infringement marches on.
Back in 2010, Citizen Outreach sent out a pair of issue-based mailers detailing the fact that former Assemblyman John Oceguera was "double-dipping" as a government employee and wasting a lot of the taxpayers' time pursuing frivolous legislation. The mailers encouraged citizens to "tell John Oceguera" to, essentially, change his evil ways.
Former Secretary of State Ross Miller sued us, claiming we were obligated to report to the government the names of every donor to our organization even though the IRS clearly says we are allowed to protect our contributors from such government fishing expeditions.
District Court Judge James Russell summarily ruled against us despite the fact that we never expressly called for Mr. Oceguera's defeat. Judge Russell ruled that the only way to "tell" the assemblyman to knock it off was to vote against him.
Clearly not true. Citizens could have talked to Mr. Oceguera about any or all of the issues we raised by calling him, emailing him, faxing him, sending him a letter or even talking to him at the grocery store or at a town hall meeting.
So we appealed Judge Russell's decision. And the Supreme Court overturned it.
However, the decision in our favor was a narrow victory. You see, in 2010 when we sent out our mailers, Nevada law was unclear as to exactly what constituted "express advocacy" for the defeat of a candidate which would trigger donor disclosure. In fact, it was so unclear that Secretary Miller went to the Nevada Legislature in 2011 and had state law changed to clear up the confusion.
As such, the Supreme Court ruled that Miller couldn't hold us to a definition of "express advocacy" that wasn't in state law when our mailers were mailed.
So ever though we won, there's still a huge problem in that Nevada law now has a new, very liberal definition of "express advocacy" that poses a serious infringement on free speech. That law needs to be changed or repealed outright.
While some ardently advocate the virtues of public disclosure of donor identities in the interest of "transparency," they overlook the very real dangers that donors risk, especially conservative donors, by being disclosed publicly in the form of blacklists, threats, harassment, humiliation and retaliation.
Justice Thomas is absolutely correct.

NEW YORK (AP) Eight persons were shot and two were stabbed early yesterday when a brawl erupted in a nightclub above a Times Square arcade, police said. Two others were trampled as people rushed to get out.
A man shot in the chest and a woman shot in the stomach were in critical condition yesterday, said police Sgt. Dennis Ferber. The conditions of the others caught in the melee were not immediately available, but authorities said their injuries were not life-threatening.
The fight broke out about 2:40 a.m. in the club of the Broadway City Arcade on West 42nd Street, the street where theaters present "The Lion King" and "42nd Street."
Club security guard Omar Leger said he was in a bathroom when he heard gunshots and emerged to see people running toward the exits. Club-goers were falling and tripping over one another as they scrambled to get out, he said.
"People were getting trampled," said Mr. Leger, who estimated that as many as 350 people were in the club at the time.
The club's crowd capacity was not immediately available, but Ilyse Fink, a spokesman for the city Department of Buildings, said she could not recall any code violations. Authorities said the 10 shooting and stabbing victims were ages 17 to 25.
Another security guard, Juan Jose De la Cruz, said the club's policy is to pat patrons down on entry to check for weapons. A man who answered the phone at the arcade early yesterday declined to comment.
Police said yesterday that they were searching for two suspects and talking to three persons arrested on weapons charges at a nearby subway station shortly after the fight.
The department cracked down on gang violence in the area last year because of brawls, but police officials said the latest fight was apparently not gang-related.
The brawl followed a month in which a nightclub stampede in Chicago killed 21 persons and a club fire in West Warwick, R.I., killed 99 persons.

Today my post is a card I designed using a picture from Facebook as my inspiration and a little hope that we shall see tulips coming up here in Maine soon even though as I am looking out my window it is snowing hard.
Step 1 – Card Base is 6″ X 6″. Cut dark chocolate Soft Finish Cardstock 6″ X 12″ score at 6″ fold on score line. Cut white Soft Finish Cardstock 5-1/2″ X 5-1/2″ adhere to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive. Using largest ' die cut patterned paper (5-1/4″ square) (ModaScrap – Wood Effects used here). Adhere to card front using Clear Double sided Adhesive.
Step 2 Cut circle frame from white Soft Finish Cardstock using 2 largest ModaScrap Dashing Circle dies. Lay dies onto cardstock on cutting plate lining them up evenly spaced put little removable tape to hold in place die cut. Save the inner circle for another project adhere frame to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.
Step 3 Cut 2 Garden Notes Pottery Pitcher from white Soft Finish Cardstock 1 of which has Clear Double Sided Adhesive on back – place this one on top of second pitcher. Lay right side down on molding mat using large ball tool from Garden Notes 4 pc Tool Kit rub back of pitcher giving it a little rounded shape. Coat with VersaMark add clear embossing powder then heat. Add pop dots to center of lower half and Kids Choice Glue all around very outer edge – make sure to leave pitcher opening free of glue so tulip stems can be put down into opening.
Step 4 Make tulips. Cut 5 yellow and 5 white using Garden Notes Tulip 2 die set. Cut leaves and stems from green cardstock – I cut a few extra of stem only. Susan has a tutorial on her Facebook page – Susan's Garden Club you can watch it here.
Step 5 Arrange stems with leaves in pitcher opening adhering in place with Kids Choice Glue. Add a few extra stems to fill in then add tulips to stems again with Kids Choice Glue.
Step 6 Using Suzanne Cannon's Family die cut it twice from black cardstock with Clear Double Sided Adhesive on back as well as twice from white cardstock with Clear Double Sided Adhesive on back. Stack the black on top of each other then white off setting them just slightly to give shadow effect. Adhere to card front to left of pitcher.
If you click on any of the supply pictures below it will take you directly to ECD site.
Hope this is an inspiration to you to make your own bouquet of tulips.
This was inspiration picture for my card today it is a bit brighter than mine.
Does the soft finish CS come in white 12×12. If it does I surely have missed it.
They are suppose to be getting it back in soon from what I understand. I hope so because I will be needing more.
Good …I kept hearing Susan say 6″ base so I have been cutting the 8 1/2 x 11 and just taping it together. Of course that leaves extra ends to use for die cutting.

This morning (21st Jan), fellow birder Gus Daly and I decided to have a quick visit to Leanyer Ponds, just on the off chance that something interesting has landed.
In about 3 minutes we spotted something different and called straight away 'Phalarope'!
Well, this shabby little fellow has created quite a stir. He has obviously been challenged by the recent monsoon activity in the area and got blown from the sea down to us.
This is the 7th report in Australia of Phalaropus fulicarius although BARC (Birds of Australia Rarities Commission have only accepted 4 reports.
This is the first record and the NT and yet another Mega rarity, a great start to the new year.
Breeding in the Artic/Alaska and wintering off of Chile or w Africa it has been pretty rare for a visit here and particularly up in the NT.


This year's 4-20 festivities in Canada were theoretically the last to be held as an act of defiance over marijuana prohibition.
Yet when recreational pot use is finally made legal by the federal government, a move expected sometime at the end of summer or perhaps a little later, many Canadians who enjoy consuming cannabis will be scarcely more free to indulge in their mind-altering substance of choice.
In many municipalities, local councils have enacted bylaws that would outlaw marijuana use in most settings, apart from private homes.
And where such rules haven't been adopted, health officials and others are pushing hard for such restrictive rules to be adopted.
Clearly, such limitations at the city level are not nearly as harsh as having pot use governed under the Criminal Code, but tight municipal controls on consumption rules fly in the face of what is supposed to be an agenda of liberalization.
There are abstract, conceptual problems with such regulations.
To start, the contradictory messaging is problematic. Canadians will be free to purchase cannabis but many will have nowhere to use it.
While cities have been quick to regulate where marijuana stores can open and how far they must be from their brethren, liquor stores or schools, they've been slower to include lounges and other gathering places into their plans.
People will also be divided into different classes of citizens depending of whether they have the good fortune of living in a single-family dwelling.
While using marijuana in multi-family dwellings is theoretically allowed, many buildings are already designated as non-smoking when it comes to tobacco use. I can't imagine there'd be exceptions made for smoking weed.
It's therefore very likely people who prefer to live in an apartment-style setting — or don't have the means to live in a standalone house of some kind — will be more affected by city pot restrictions than those who live in a typical single-family dwelling.
Then you have a raft of practical problems.
Many marijuana users do so for medical reasons and, in some jurisdictions, would be exempt from municipal regulations forbidding outdoor pot use.
Leaving aside the apparent ease with which such an exemption can be obtained, we are faced with the possibility of police and bylaw officers stopping people on the street to check their credentials and medical licensing status.
Things will get even more complicated once edible marijuana products become legal. How are law-enforcement types to distinguish pot pastry and cannabis candy from their not-so-special counterparts?
Then you have problems related to vaping. I can't think of an obvious way to tell the difference between a cannabis vaping device and a tobacco vaping device.
There's the distinct possibility of people being randomly stopped for verification because of these issues.
Of course, the opposite could also be true: police and bylaw officers might have more important things to do than policing pot rules.
In Calgary for instance, the head of the police union has already said there is no way overburdened frontline officers will participate in any kind of crackdown on public marijuana use.
And then there's the biggest issue of all: Despite being currently illegal, pot use in public is already happening anyway and has been going on for years. This is not going to stop because cities have passed new bylaws to regulate cannabis consumption.
While municipalities have put in place marijuana use rules with the good intention of trying to keep pot smoke away from those of us who'd rather not be near it, the result is a largely ineffective bureaucratic haze that's very likely to be ignored.


It's been a busy few weeks on the deputation trail for the Pittsleys. I spent much of the week of 22-Feb continuing to call pastors to schedule meetings. I'm making progress on that front, but it's an ongoing project and prayer request. We need more meetings and more supporting churches to be able to start serving in Kenya. I also spent a good deal of time preparing for a week-long trip to California that I took last week. In addition to the normal planning and packing, I needed to track down and purchase a couple pieces of equipment that would allow me to do my DVD presentation in small churches that do not own a data projector and DVD player.
Last Sunday I was able to present our ministry to rossway Baptist Church in Bakersfield, CA. The young church had never had a missionary in to present his ministry before, so it was a neat opportunity to introduce them to the worldwide cause. Pastor Mark Brock challenged the congregation from Romans 10 and the church's responsibility to worldwide missions. We're so thankful for the welcome and astounding generosity of this young church.
I knew both Pastor Mark and Pastor Phil Elie while I was in seminary, so it was also nice to be able to reconnect with them and visit with their families during my visit. We hope to have an opportunity to visit again as a family when we're on our way back through from other meetings.
Monday and Tuesday were the last two days of a symposium for The Master's Academy International. TMAI is an organization that facilitates the creation of theological training schools all over the world. It has come to incorporate a network of 15 like-minded theological schools and teachers around the world. It was a privilege to be invited to observe as the teacher-missionaries presented their ministries. I was so glad to have to opportunity to listen to people experienced in the same tasks that our team plans to be involved in. I'm certain that hearing their joys and challenges was a foretaste of what is in store for us in the future.
At the end of last week, I was able to meet up with my ministry partner Dan Huffstutler at a pastors' conference where we were both able to meet some new contacts and reconnect with some old friends. We stayed with the Dunhams while attending the conference. Kyle Dunham has been a teacher at one of the spiritual leadership conferences that we've held at the Weavers' camp near Nairobi, Kenya. I had one class with Kyle in seminary, but I never really got to know him or his family, so I am glad I had the opportunity to deepen the acquaintance.

The first chapter of Luke tells us in many ways that Mary is "blessed" by God. But what a strange kind of blessing it was! Blessed to be pregnant out of wedlock—with all the scandalous gossip and innuendo that came with it! Blessed to have an incredibly difficult conversation with her fiancé, who doesn't at first believe her when she tells him she didn't cheat on him. Blessed to have to flee for her life to a foreign land with Joseph and Jesus in order to escape the murderous clutches of King Herod. Blessed with the heartache of losing her son for three days while he was in the Temple in Jerusalem. Blessed to watch her son grow up and face opposition and hostility—even from the people he grew up with. Blessed to stand at the foot of the cross and watch him die! Blessed for those three days between his death and resurrection.
To say the least, God's idea of "blessing" is often different from our own. To be blessed by God doesn't mean to be free from trouble or pain.
'Cause what if your blessings come through rain drops?
When we experience trouble and pain in this life, it's often because God loves us too much to let us settle for the "lesser things" that we want.
Do you trust that God knows what we need more than we do? Can you name an experience in which your trials were God's "mercies in disguise"? Do you agree with this statement by C.S. Lewis? "We are not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be." Why or why not?

Air Travel Planning
Low-Cost Airport Transportation Options
Mark Kahler
Mark Kahler is a budget travel expert and writer with more than 30 years' experience.

A one-way car rental won't work in every location or with every car rental company, but it's worth checking into if you live some distance from a major airport. When you find a rental company that doesn't charge the drop off fee, consider joining its loyalty program. That way, you can lock in any corporate discounts for which you might be eligible.
Also, Zipcar is a car-sharing service that rents cars by the hour, and one-way car sharing from airports in several states nationwide, such as New York, California, Colorado, and Texas.

If you'll be traveling to a major city, never forget to check the public transportation arrangements from the airport to the downtown area. It's frequently far cheaper to take a train or a bus than a taxi.
Some people complain that they have to go to a specific address that is far from a rail station or bus stop. This strategy still saves money though, because chances are good that you can take public transportation to one point and then perhaps a cab the remainder of the way. Your cab fare can be significantly lower by supplementing with cheap public transportation when practical.
Travelers who don't use sound packing strategies are likely to balk at this suggestion because it's not easy to climb in and out of trains or buses with a host of heavy bags in tow. But if you can practice one-bag travel, this is a wonderful strategy.
Shared ride airport shuttles are not the most popular choices among travelers. Budget travelers tolerate them to a point because there is money to be saved. But you'll find that the shuttles stop at a host of hotels before heading to or from the airport. It can be frustrating if you're already running late. And sometimes, the shuttle prices are still quite expensive. With all of that said, a well-timed shuttle pickup can be a money-saver.
Go Airlink Shuttle offers deals to airports in the New York area that sometimes start as low as $16 for a shared ride van. Naturally, the prices go up a great deal for private rides, which allow you to arrive in a swifter, more comfortable fashion.
It's best to compare airport shuttle rates against the standard cab fares. To find these prices, use a website such as TaxiFareFinder.com. In the New York example, it shows a cab fare (including tip) of about $38 between LGA and Penn Station. A shared ride airport shuttle that's just a few dollars less might not be worth the price.
Pay Someone to Drive You

Sounds a bit awkward, right? Most of us would be uncomfortable asking someone to drive us to the airport, especially if there is a long distance involved. But if you offer to cover expenses (gasoline, tolls, etc.) and propose a reasonable fee based on the driver's time investment, you might be surprised by how many people will accept the offer. It goes without saying that this should be someone you know fairly well, with references from people you trust. The driver's record and insurance considerations are also important.
Many markets offer ride-sharing applications such as Uber or Lyft, which links up people who need rides with willing drivers. Costs are generally less than taxi fares. However, these ride-sharing apps are under fire by national, state and local governments because they do not collect taxes or pay the same fees that cab drivers must manage. If you use a ride-sharing app, stick with well-known ones with a good track record such as the two mentioned above.
Park and Fly Hotels
Park and fly hotels are practical when you cannot find a workable solution with a one-way car rental, public transportation, an airport shuttle or a hired driver. You'll have to drive your own car, and leave it at the airport.
If that airport parking is needed for more than a few days, you'll be paying quite a bit for the privilege of having a car near the terminal. In some cities, the charges start at $18/day.
Park and fly hotels allow you to park in specially designated sections of their lots for free with an overnight stay. These arrangements are pre-arranged, not simply assumed by overnight guests. On a longer trip, when you'll have a parking bill of $100 or more, why not get a room for the night thrown in with the parking cost?
