Internet TV, the next revolution?
By: Arthur Swat
Few months ago I started to hear about Internet TV. Internet TV was a new way to watch TV shows and TV programs directly on your computer. I am not talking about recorded TV shows but LIVE TV! This will truly change the way I was watching TV. I could watch French, Russian and Japanese channels directly on my computer! The first thing that worried me was: is it legal? And the answer is yes! Most of the TV channels and programs you see are broadcasted directly by the TV stations themselves. This is not like downloading movies from peer-to-peer networks. With the authorities tracking illegal downloads and suing those peer-to-peer users, I though it was the perfect time to look for something completely legal. Enter the online TV or Internet TV. And unlike cable or Satellite TV you don’t have to pay a monthly fee. You usually need to pay a low one time fee (from $30 and up to $100). But how do you start? What you need to do is to find the service that meets your needs. Do you watch sports, TV shows, foreign channels or adult movies? Based on your answer there are different package you can choose from. www.SatOnlineTV.com offers reviews of the different offers and let you pick the right one. This website has the most comprehensive reviews of Internet TV packages on the market. For each package there is a review, a scale for ease of use, content, picture quality and price. Also for each package you can quickly find the program highlights. I’ve read somewhere that www.SatOnlineTV.com is working to add more Internet TV reviews as they become available. I bought Satellite TV for PC the titanium edition and I am really happy with this package. As a first step before buying an internet TV package make sure you check http://www.SatOnlineTV.com. On a next article I’ll detail each available Internet TV package.

Car Insurance
Car Insurance - There is something for everyone
By: Smith James
The insurance companies in UK have come up with different car insurance plans for different categories of drivers on the English streets. There are 2 main ideas behind having different plans for different kinds of drivers - one, every category of drivers have a style of driving common to the category; and second, they usually drive a particular type of car. Let me illustrate the two points.
Every category of drivers have a style typical to all or most of the drivers in that segment. For example, young men usually display their need for speed. At the same time they are cautious about bumping into other vehicles on the road. Most of the people in the same age bracket would display similar driving styles and that is why the kind of accidents they meet with are usually similar in nature.
Now, let us come to the second reason - similar cars. Men and women, who are working executives in different organisations, are also people with family. Therefore they would drive family cars. The family cars can be further divided into the small cars and the 3 box cars. Then we also take the age factor in it, as discussed in the point above. Young adults have a particular style, while more mature people display a different one.
All these factors are taken into consideration for the simple reason that the kind of accidents they meet are of different nature. And therefore the need for insurance also varies. The benefits each of them would want to derive from their car insurance plan are different from one another. Hence, the plans should be so designed so that there is a plan for every category of drivers.
The best way to find out which car insurance plan suit you the best, is by looking them up in a good comparison web site. There are quite a few good and unbiased insurance comparison sites available through World Wide Web. You can search them and select one that suits you and your car.

Tips on Buying and Using LED Light Bulbs
Tips on Buying and Using LED Light Bulbs 
by: Joseph Reis
by: Joseph Reis Green is good, and right now, energy efficient lighting is all the rage. With the looming phase-out of old-fashioned incandescent light bulbs in many developed countries, people are faced with choosing between a handful energy efficient forms of lighting – compact fluorescents (CFL) and light emitting diodes (LED). This article will help you make good decisions when buying residential LED light bulbs.
CFLs are good for now, but…
You have likely already adopted energy efficient compact fluorescents (CFL) as part of your effort to reduce your carbon footprint. While CFLs are energy efficient, they have drawbacks such as mercury and relatively short lifespan. Also, CFLs are not available in sizes that replace track light bulbs, such as MR16 and GU10. It is unlikely that CFLs will be available in these sizes.
CFLs have made giant inroads over the last couple of years. The low cost and high energy efficiency of CFLs have made them favorites with people replacing incandescent lights. According to the Energy Information Administration, a government agency, 9% of a household’s energy costs are related to lighting. People are genuinely concerned with lowering their energy consumption, and lighting is one of the easiest things a person can improve on. With worldwide support from mass-market retailers, governments, and citizens, energy efficient lighting is seeing a new dawn. While CFLs provide a good combination of efficiency and cost, there is an even better option on the horizon – LED light bulbs.
Introducing the next generation of ultra energy efficient light bulbs – LEDs
LED light bulbs are semiconductors, just like the chips in your computer. These semiconductors emit energy in the form of photons of light. LEDs have come a very long way since they were invented in the 1960s. You have seen LED lamps for decades in the form of indicator lights on electronic products. Now, these LED lamps light bulbs have evolved to the point produce enough light for household and commercial applications. LEDs are extremely energy efficient, and have lifetimes ranging from 50,000 hours to 100,000 hours. LED light bulbs are the perfect complement to your collection energy efficient lighting products.
Tips for Buying LEDs
There are several varieties of residential LED light bulbs on the market. Presently, LEDs best replace track lighting and flood lights, both of which take advantage of the directional nature of LED light. Below are some tips for buying LED light bulbs.
• The Basics
You want to find an LED bulb that produces a healthy amount of light, but at the lowest possible power consumption. A good metric that equalizes your search is “lumens per watt”. To derive this figure, simply divide the bulb’s number of watts into the number of lumens. Right now, a good LED bulb should have at least 40 lumens per watt, but preferably more.
The question is often asked about comparisons between normal light bulbs and LEDs. Here are some examples to guide you:
5-watt, 3 high power CREE LED, MR16 ~ 25-watt MR16 Halogen 5-watt, 3 high power CREE LED, E27 spot ~ 30-watt E27 spot Halogen 6-watt, 165 traditional LEDs, PAR38, ~ 50-watt PAR38 incandescent
• Lifetime of Bulb
Many manufacturers of LED bulbs claim lifetimes of 50,000 hours to 100,000 hours. The lifetime of an LED lamp is generally considered to be the point where the light output has declined to 70% of it’s initial output, measured in lumens. So, a 300 lumen LED bulb with a lifespan of 50,000 hours will have 210 lumens at the end of it’s lifetime. However, the lifetime of a bulb does not mean it is unusable, only that it’s light output has degraded to a certain point. The LED bulb may continue to be useful for several thousand hours past it’s stated lifetime. Unlike old-fashioned light bulbs, it is extremely rare for an LED light to simply burn out. Rather, it will gradually fade over time.
• Color
As a general rule, you should use warmer light indoors, and whiter light outdoors. A color temperature of 2500-4000 Kelvin works great indoors. You should use a bulb with a color temperature of 5000-7000 Kelvin outdoors, as the whiter light allows your eyes to see better at night.
White light in the 5000-7000 Kelvin range is also excellent for display cases, boutiques, artwork, or other settings where you need excellent color rendition.
• Type of LED lamp
LED light bulbs use one or more tiny semiconductor lamps to produce very focused light. Contrast this with normal light bulbs that generate light in all directions. LED lamps are currently available in two forms: traditional LEDs (typically 5mm), which are smaller, and high power LEDs. Light bulbs using traditional LEDs require a large number of LED lamps to produce sufficient light, whereas high power LED bulbs use one or more lamps to generate light.
In general, the more LEDs, the better the light dispersion. Always get LED bulbs with more than one LED. You will find that single LED bulbs produce a very conspicuous outline, similar to a halo. Unless you enjoy halos across your walls, it’s better to buy light bulbs with multiple LEDs.
Here are some common track light and flood light bulb types, and suggestions for the LED arrangements:
For track bulbs such as MR-type and GU-type, try to get bulbs with 3 high power LED lamps (preferably using CREE or Nichia lamps). Avoid buying track bulbs using an array of traditional LED lamps, as these are not as effective as high power lamps.
For flood light bulbs, such as PAR-type, you can find reasonably priced traditional LED arrangements. High-power LED flood lights produce good light, but are also very expensive. In my experience, a PAR bulb using 120 or more traditional LED lamps works just as good, at a fraction of the price.
• Cost and energy savings
LED bulbs have a higher upfront cost, but they pay for themselves several times over their lifetime. Because LEDs have lower power consumption and a very long lifetime, they are very energy efficient. Let’s take an example of a $45, 5-watt, 50,000 hour MR16 LED bulb. Let’s assume a constant electricity cost of $0.10 per kilowatt hour, and a 0.61 electrical grid CO2 output factor. Compared with a similar $8, 25-watt halogen MR16 bulb, the LED will save $255 and reduce carbon emissions by 1,345 pounds. Not bad for a light bulb.
As energy costs continue to rise, the cost savings and carbon reduction from using LEDs will become far more pronounced.
Buyer beware – LEDs cannot replace general illumination bulbs (yet)
Right now, there are plenty of options for LED light bulbs. And that’s a bit of a problem. Several sellers of LED bulbs claim their bulbs are powerful enough to replace general illumination bulbs such as incandescent and CFL. This is simply untrue. Many of these “replacement” bulbs cost nearly $100 and use over 10 watts of power. You are much better off using a $3.00, 10-watt CFL for now. However, keep an eye out for LED general illumination bulbs over the next few years, as they will become very competitive with normal light bulbs.
Start today with LEDs
As LED technology rapidly advances, you will see them replace all other forms of light bulbs, including CFLs. If you have track lights or flood lights, you can begin incorporating LED light bulbs right away. Remember, now is the time to take steps to save energy and money. Your wallet and the planet will both thank you.

Long Term Care Insurance
Long Term Care Insurance
By: Robert Lawrence
Most young people ignore the fact that they will grow old one day. It is the wise ones who not only think about it but also provide for their future. Statistics show us that almost one out of two Americans require long term care when they grow old. Due to immobility and illness people become dependant on families and institutions to carry out normal daily activities such as dressing and bathing.
Long-term care refers to a system where this can be taken care of in your own home, a hospital, a home center or an assisted living facility. It could be a reality to many who have led a strong and active life earlier. This is why its importance is growing each day. Most Medicare programs and State Medicaid programs do not provide the necessary facilities for payment. Some only cater to those who fall below the poverty line. Therefore, it is prudent to consider applying for a Long Term Care Insurance policy early in life.
If you have worked all your life and have made a substantial saving, then perhaps you can fund your own long-term care. Unfortunately, not everyone is so lucky and therefore long-term care insurance is very vital to secure a safe future especially for those who have a history of health problem in the family.
Like for any other policy, it is best that you know all the details prior to buying one. Often times, people forget that premiums for life insurance policies increase over time. This makes it difficult to pay especially when there is no enhancement of the financial situation. Thus, policies are cancelled when they are needed most because policyholders cannot continue to pay high premiums. It is easy to get drawn into buying a policy because market savvy sales executives make it sound so easy. But, it is up to the individual and insurance advisors to properly instruct prospective customers.
One sure way of protecting yourself is to be sure of all the terms and conditions given in the long term care insurance policy document. If the insurance sector is not your cup of tea; you could hire an agent or a broker who will act on your behalf. They will be experts on quotes, claims, processes and other issues. You need to also be careful on selecting the right broker at the right cost. Long-term care insurance not only provides security for you, but for the entire family. So you can take their advice before buying a policy. Remember, to choose an insurance company that is reputable and trustworthy. You can take it for granted that sales people will only state the benefits of a policy. They will not tell you the flip side of the story. Do not rely on brochures and other sales oriented literature to make your decision.
To summarize, a long-term care insurance policy can be used for different types of long term care such as skilled nursing, intermediate nursing and custodial care. The kind of care you choose largely depends on your physical health and situation. This kind of insurance is definitely worthwhile and affordable when you think of life beyond 65 years of age.

Door Hardware to Keep Your Home Safe
Door Hardware to Keep Your Home Safe
By: Anna Woodward
Moving into a new home or remodeling means thinking about cabinet hardware and cabinet hardware products. And, it also means thinking about the most important house hardware of all - Locks. Door hardware is your home's protection against intruders.
Choosing the Right Hardware
These days, a deadbolt is essential for keeping your home secure. Regular door locks that function inside the knob just can't guarantee the protection you need. They can be easily broken by force. The thick throw bolt of a deadbolt is nearly impossible to break through.
There are two kinds of deadbolts; single cylinder and double cylinder. The difference is that single cylinder deadbolts have a knob or thumb turn on the inside, with a key only on the outside. With a double cylinder, you need a key for both sides.
If you are getting a deadbolt for an exterior door, it is usually best to get the single cylinder variety. This is a safety issue. If there were an emergency inside the house, such as a fire, the occupants could risk being trapped inside or slowed down by having to use a key. A single cylinder and a regular doorknob locks will offer enough protection to the house, and also allow anyone inside to get out.
The only exception to this is a door with windows. If there is glass on the door, it would be easy for an intruder to simply break the glass and reach through to the deadbolt's knob. It is usually best to consider safety first and go with the single cylinder, but if your house has inner and outer front doors, you can use both.
Don't Forget the Windows
You might wonder, what's the point of installing window locks? After all, if a burglar wants to get in, they will simply smash the glass. This is true, in Hollywood. But actually, most burglars are opportunists. They want to break into a house with the least amount of bother, and it would be much better to slip in through a window than to break one.
You should definitely have window locks, and make sure that each one, downstairs and up no matter how small, is covered. Even the tiny one in the bathroom should be secured. An experienced burglar can slip through just about anything, and slip right back out again with your stuff.
Whether to use key or thumb turn locks is the same issue we dealt with earlier. If the burglar chooses to break the glass, they can simply turn the thumb knob; if you use a key mechanism instead, they would have to continue breaking out glass and risk getting cut up coming in.
Even a cheap window lock will work wonders in protecting your house from intruders. Make sure it is one that is visible from outside. Most burglars would rather move on to another house than deal with any kind of difficulty getting in.
Keep in mind that locks work not only to keep your house safe, but as a deterrent for would-be burglars. In the same way that security guards deter theft by just being there, having good, solid, visible locks on your doors and windows will keep most burglars looking for an easier house.
Another thing to remember is that you can never have too much home security. It is a good idea to keep a safe, in addition to the other safety precautions you place in your home.

Real Estate LaW
Real Estate Law: The Basics
By: Art Gib
Real estate law is multi-categorized and is governed by a lot of different facets. "Real" refers to real property. This is land and the things that are permanently a part of the area, that is, what is attached.
This goes for anything "underneath" too, so if any crude oil or natural gas is buried beneath, the land owner has first rights to the resource.
With property ownership, or the prospect of owning, there come risks. Most of this is liability, liability to the state and those who border the property. For instance, when purchasing a lot within the city, there are zoning restrictions.
A city may designate a certain size structure on the land, and if the owner decided to assemble a four-story goliath mansion home, the other owners of single floor rancher-style houses on that block might not be so pleased, the same goes with the city.
There is a great deal of ownership liability that goes to third-parties as well, such as land owners paying mortgage on a house to a lender. This is probably the most common liability that is known. If the owner does not pay, then they default on the loan and the lender, such as a bank can claim the property as payment.
State Law
Property laws trace its history back to the monarchs who ruled much of the continent of Europe. This was brought to America and from there has evolved a great deal. Real estate law, like most all law type, is still constantly evolving today as new cases are brought to courts.
Because events are often relating to geography and local cultures and law, there are a lot of aspects of real estate law that reflect this and are divided up by states.
For instance, if you were having a land dispute with a neighbor and you owned a tract of land near Coeur d'Alene, Idaho you would ideally want to consult with Coeur d'Alene real estate attorneys -- even if you retain an attorney in Pittsburgh or some other city where you make your residence -- to know what is fully involved regarding that specific city's statutes.
A Coeur d'Alene real estate attorney can advise you on the specifics with Idaho's real property laws and can give you a heads up on what your rights are as a land owner pertaining to that tract of land you own and the dwelling that reside within.
Hiring a real estate attorney's group, no matter where you plan to buy land, would lend you piece of mind and a defense or litigations counsel if that dispute with the neighbor ends up in court.

Temp Cover Car Insurance In Your Time Of Need
Temp Cover Car Insurance In Your Time Of Need
By: Shaun Parker
Having lived in America and South Africa I have found it difficult moving back to a country where the individual is insured as opposed to the vehicle. It used to be the case that if I wanted to borrow someone's car that they'd sling me their keys and off I'd go safe in the knowledge that if the worst were to happen I'd be covered.
Forgetting the laws in England I recently suggested to a friend that I drove their car home for them from the pub. The idea was laughed at and not because of my questionable driving. The reason is the penalties for being caught are so severe. The same applies for lending a vehicle over a couple of days. It is often difficult to find insurers that are willing to cover you for a short amount of time. So borrowing a car for a single journey can end up being extremely expensive.
Fortunately there are an increasing number of insurance providers that see the importance of offering insurance over a short period. The period of cover can range between a single day to a whole month. This makes it popular with people such as students that return home in the summer and want to use their parents' car. It is also an extremely popular option for the ex-pat community that return to the UK for a break. With many providers offering deals specified for people that live abroad it can mean using a car is significantly cheaper than hiring.
Arranging temp cover for a vehicle is a simple process that can be completed online. It is the perfect option for when you want to test drive or purchase a new vehicle and want to drive it fully insured. Because many providers let you apply online you can often print out the insurance certificate and carry it with you. This will give you incredible peace of mind if you are off to test drive a vehicle that is being sold privately or driving a friend's vehicle for a single journey.
Temp cover is also a great option for people moving home. If you have a friend that owns a suitable vehicle it will work out much cheaper than hiring a removal van. It is a great option for parents taking their children to University digs, people that need a big trip to the rubbish dump, to collect furniture or for a booze cruise to France.
It is a perfect option for insuring a relative to drive your car if you are ill and can't drive. It is also a great option for when your car has broken down and you need to borrow your partner's car. It can be a very cost effective way of borrowing a car from a friend. The rental period for temp cover is short so can be a very small one off payment.
The insurance companies often have a system that enables you to arrange cover immediately. The coverage is set to a specific time. This means you can arrange insurance cover in an emergency and use a vehicle quickly. Because you can print of your policy you do not have to wait for the post to deliver a cover note.
