Documentation Checklist ..................... 43 Prior to Preparing the Inventory Document Documenting your personal property loss is a difficult and often emotional experience. As you try to recall all your personal possessions, following this guide should help you minimize your effort and increase the effectiveness and accuracy of your portrayal of your loss items. Your list of personal property will be impacted by family demographics: age, gender, family size and lifecycle stage. It will be influenced by the family member activities, interests and values. Your purchases may reflect geographic factors: region, urban, suburban, rural and climate. As noted earlier, among the duties of claimants is to present a list of damaged property and the amount of loss including quantity, description and replacement value. Following the process outlined here should help you develop adequate documentation to qualify the extent of loss. Note that your valuation efforts will state only the replacement cost value. You do have the benefit of your best recollection of what you have spent for items and your past and current experience as a shopper to estimate a reasonable replacement cost. Key Points and Generalities to Assure an Accurate Inventory To the best of your recollection, you will provide the following information for each item to help pave the way to proper and full indemnification. Description: The description includes the item type and should contain adequate information to support its relative quality and your stated replacement cost value. Expensive items or items that appear more expensive than average for the category will warrant more full descriptions. Your descriptions will vary from as simple as “T-shirts” to those that include brand, model number and/ or product features. Replacement Cost Each: Your estimated replacement cost may be based on your recollection. For items that you do not recall or for more expensive items you may choose to do some on-line research or make visits to local stores to assure that the stated number reflects current pricing. For items that you have already replaced use the actual amount paid and note “already replaced” within the description. When preparing the inventory, be truthful, accurate and detailed. CALIFORNIA MANDATORY FRAUD STATEMENT: For your protection, California law requires that you be made aware of the following: Any person who knowingly presents false or fraudulent claim for the payment of a loss is guilty of a crime and may be subject to fines and confinement in state prison. 1 Total Loss Documentation Process Sketch Floor Plan Sketch a rough floor plan of each floor of the home.

Stiffness variation in hockey sticks and the impact on stick performance Graeme Nigel Carlisle Submitted with corrections for the degree of Masters of Research – Science and Engineering of Materials August 2011 Multiple sectioned shafts of carbon fibre composite were modelled using Composite Design Analysis software in order to replicate the range of flexural rigidities shown across the current field hockey stick market. The shafts were then manufactured using hand lay-up and hot-pressing techniques, tested under static and dynamic conditions and the goodness of their relationship with the modelled behaviour was assessed. The shafts were also analysed microscopically for volume fraction, ply-orientation and the interaction between the varied lay-up sections. The modelling gave a good understanding of the trend of behaviour that was to be expected, but was not accurate enough to predict experimental values.

  • Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding
    Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding Inline Hockey New Zealand © Working-concepts are copyright Cluster Creative Ltd Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding Brand Perception Current logo Inline Hockey is like ice hockey but is played on roller blades. Inline Hockey is seen as an alternative sport. It has small numbers in NZ. This should not be seen as negative, but as a unique positioning because this could make it desirable to individuals who would like to express themselves in a creative way. It is a fringe sport which is edgy. The edge comes from the use of roller blades which give it a hint of ‘skate culture’ and provides a rush of adrenalin. It also needs to be seen as a ‘real’ sport. The brand needs to be regarded as official and as having a NZ team. However, the curent branding gives the opposite impression. This needs to be changed. Audience The sport needs to grow. Work-on-the-ground has been done to address this but the brand is lacking. The primary audience must be the kids, yet also tick the boxes for parents. The target audience is: Kids who: - have tried roller blading (or who may be attracted to it) - have not ‘connected’ with mainstream sport - see the sport is cool - see that the sport has heroes (market the star players?) - see it has future for them. Parents who: - are open to alternatives - want their child to fair go (smaller sport means more inclusive feel?) - want a supportive community Inline Hockey New Zealand © Working-concepts are copyright Cluster Creative Ltd Demographics Cities - have good facilities but market reach is hard due to competition Rural - easier to market to by word of mouth Schools - a captive audience, but must be introduced in a cool way not a school way Media - some inline hockey mention in print and radio, ice hockey (parent-sport) gets some mainstream coverage Web - has a website, FB page, but no active campaigning using Google Analytics or tracking.

  • Helmets for Winter Sports
    Community Education Helmets for Winter Sports When child skiers and snowboarders wear properly fitting helmets, they reduce their risk of head injuries by nearly half. Helmets also reduce the chance of head injuries for sledders, ice skaters, snowmobilers and hockey players. Along with keeping children safer during winter sports, helmets provide warmth. Choosing and fitting a helmet For skiing and snowboarding: Choose a certified helmet made just for snow sports. Look for a helmet that meets ASTM F2040, Snell RS-98, S-98 or CEN 1077 standards. Proper fit is a must. If you can, have a sales person help you choose and fit a helmet for your child. Bring the goggles that your child will wear on the slopes to make sure they work with the helmet you choose. Before you buy or borrow a helmet, fasten the chin strap and make sure: • You can adjust the chin strap so that no more than 1 or 2 fingers fit between the chin and strap. • The pads are flush against your child’s cheeks For sledding and ice-skating: and forehead. Although there are no helmets designed • The back of the helmet does not touch the top specifically for these sports, the American of your child’s neck. Academy of Pediatrics advises that wearing a helmet is better than not wearing one at all. • It is snug, but not tight. Choose a helmet that meets one of the following • The helmet sits level, with the front edge safety standards: being no more than 1 inch above your child’s • Bike helmet: CPSC, ASTM F1447, Snell eyebrows.

  • Outsmart Energy Waste and Lower Your Electric Bill
    Outsmart Energy Waste and Lower Your Electric Bill We don’t always think about the electricity we use. But there are many easy ways to cut down on wasted energy. The simple steps outlined here can go a long way to lowering your electric bill, and making your home more comfortable. Outsmart Energy Waste and Lower Your Electric Bill Heating • Lower the temperature in your home. Set the thermostat as low as it’s comfortable. Try for 68 degrees or lower during the cold months. • If you heat with a furnace or heat pump, turn the thermostat down at night or when you aren’t home. Consider a programmable thermostat to make the changes automatic. • Clean or change furnace and air conditioning lters regularly. Monthly is recommended. • Close your curtains at night to keep heat inside and open them during the day to allow sun to help warm your home. • If you have a replace, keep the damper closed when it’s not being used. • During winter, keep windows and exterior doors closed to keep heat inside. In the summer, open windows only when it’s cooler outside than the temperature inside your home. • Keep your warm air outlets and heaters clean. Arrange furniture and window coverings so they don’t block airow from registers or heaters. • Seal seams and openings from the inside to outside of your home with caulk, weather-stripping or spray insulation to prevent air from leaking in or out. Lighting • Replace traditional incandescent light bulbs with compact uorescent or LED bulbs. Compare lumens to make sure the lower wattage bulbs will WHERE TO START provide the same amount of light.

  • Numerical Simulation of the Ice Hockey Slap Shot
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Engineering 112 ( 2015 ) 22 – 27 7th Asia-Pacific Congress on Sports Technology, APCST 2015 Numerical Simulation of the Ice Hockey Slap Shot Brendan Kaysa, Lloyd Smitha* aWashington State University, 201 Sloan, Spokane St., Pullman, WA 99164 USA Abstract With the introduction of new materials in ice hockey sticks in the past several decades there is increasing interest in material properties that affect the slap shot. Stick interrogation is complicated due to the variation from player to player and even shot to shot. To isolate the parameters affecting puck speed, a finite element model was employed that simulated a slap shot. The stick was modeled as a linear elastic material and the puck was modeled as a viscoelastic material. Puck speeds found good agreement with experiment and increased slightly with increasing shaft stiffness. The trend was attributed to the constant displacement boundary condition used in the model, which may be more appropriate for low force wrist shots, however. Stick mass moment of inertia had no effect on puck speeds while impacting the puck closer to the toe resulted in higher shot speeds. © 20152015 The The Authors. Authors.
