The present invention relates to a device for conveniently supporting a laptop computer on the lap of the user thereof, and more particularly to such a device which is substantially universally adjustable for supporting the computer in a preferred and optimal position for use.
The use of laptop or notebook computers has proliferated in recent years to such a degree that it is more common than not to see their use on airplanes, in airports, at all types of meetings, and in a wide variety of public places, including libraries, restaurants, parks, etc. With such a wide array of circumstances of use, and the attendant variety of public and private seating, there is an equal number of physical conditions and positions in which the user may find himself or herself when using a laptop computer. Certainly not all of these conditions present the optimal situation for comfortable, ergonomically correct use of the laptop computer.
Of particular note is the problem presented in keeping the laptop computer keyboard at a comfortable height and angle relative to the wrists and hands of the user. This height and angle is typically dictated by the chair or seat in which the user is seated. If the chair or seat is relatively low, the user's knees may be higher than the lap, which will cause a laptop computer situated in the lap to be tilted forward or toward the user. This may present problems for proper use. Conversely, if the seat is relatively high, then the user's knees may be lower than the lap and the computer will be tilted away from the user. In either case, the problem is that the keyboard is not in a substantially horizontal position, which is highly desirable for most users.
As a means of addressing the above-described problem, many users will adjust their body position to achieve a substantially horizontal keyboard. This may be accomplished variously by slouching or by raising up on one's toes when the knees are too low, or by extending one's feet forward to lower the knees when they are too high. Both approaches deviate in a negative way from the ideal position of the feet being flat on the ground or floor and the knees being bent at a ninety degree angle. Such deviations can be uncomfortable, cause fatigue, and if maintained repeatedly and/or for long periods of time may cause injury. An additional problem many laptop computer users face is the tendency for the computer to shift or slide on the lap. Because of this tendency, the user frequently tenses the leg muscles to force them together and balance the computer. This may also cause discomfort and/or fatigue for the user. Moreover, resting the computer directly on the user's lap can have the further drawback of heating up the user's legs due to the fact that most laptop computers dissipate heat out through the bottom surface, causing still further discomfort.
Because it is not always possible to achieve the ideal lap, leg and knee positioning, and for the other reasons mentioned above, there has developed a need for a positioning aid for laptop computer users. In terms of currently available products or devices for laptop computer users, several examples will now be described. It is noted, however, that none of these devices satisfactorily addresses all the various problems mentioned above.
One product is the “Lapdog” (available from Sharper Image). This product is actually a laptop computer carrying case that includes two zippered saddlebags which unfold and drape across the user's legs to provide balance and stability. The computer rests on a high-traction rubberized surface which provides a thermal shield between the user and the laptop. Also, the bottom surface of the “Lapdog” is a textured material which is intended to prevent sliding relative to the user's legs. Clearly the “Lapdog” has no capability of being adjusted to compensate for variations in the sitting positions of users to ensure a horizontal keyboard.
Bowman U.S. Pat. No. 905,836, is directed to a lap desk which includes a top part, bottom part and back part which are hingedly connected. The three components may be folded as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 of the Bowman patent to provide an inclined surface. However, the lap-desk work surface of the Bowman patent is limited to one of three distinct angles, and is not “universally adjustable.”
Henneberg U.S. Pat. No. 4,624,433 discloses a tilt base for a CRT display terminal. While the tilt base disclosed in the Henneberg patent has several hingedly connected sections, the device is intended for desk or tabletop use and is not a portable independent device.
Kan-O U.S. Pat. No. 5,503,361 discloses an adjustable stand for mounting a notebook-type personal computer or a pen-input-type personal computer. Again, upon review of the features described in the Kan-O patent, it is clear that the device is not for use on a person's lap, but rather is intended for desk top or tabletop use. Furthermore, it does not appear that the angle of incline of the stand in Kan-O is universally adjustable, but rather may be limited to only two positions.
What is needed is a substantially universally adjustable, portable device for conveniently supporting a laptop computer on the lap of the user thereof to support the computer in a preferred, optimal position for use.
In its broadest aspects, the present invention is directed to a portable, adjustable laptop (notebook) computer support. The invention can also be used to support other portable data devices that have keyboards, such as pen-input-type computers and personal, electronic data organizers. For convenience in the ensuing description, general reference will be made to a laptop computer support. The invention is highly advantageous in that it provides for conveniently supporting a laptop computer on the lap of the user thereof in a preferred and optimal position for use even when the user is seated in any one of a wide variety of sub-optimal positions. The device is further advantageous in that it is lightweight, portable and substantially universally adjustable within a defined range of support surface angles.
One embodiment of the laptop computer support of the present invention includes a first panel, a second panel, and a third panel. The first panel includes a free edge and a hinged edge opposite the free edge. This hinged edge is hingedly connected to a first hinged edge of the second panel. The second panel further includes a second hinged edge opposite the first hinged edge. This second hinged edge is itself hingedly connected to a hinged edge on the third panel, with the third-panel hinged edge being positioned opposite a third-panel free edge.
This embodiment further includes a releasable and adjustable fastener combination, which advantageously may consist of a first fastener member on at least a portion of the first panel and a second fastener member on at least a portion of the third panel, with the first and second fastener members being oriented on their respective panels so that they may be releasably and adjustably fastened together. In this manner, the device provides multiple support surfaces and support-surface angles for a laptop computer or other suitable item. For example, when viewed in cross-section, the laptop computer support has a generally triangular shape, with the first panel having an outer support surface, and the third panel having an outer support surface, either of which may be used to support a computer or other object, with the other outer support surface typically resting on the lap of a user, on a table, or on another support surface which is separate from the laptop support device itself.
Because the fastener combination is both releasable and adjustable, the relative slope of the first panel and/or third panel may be adjusted over a wide range, thereby providing an optimal angle of support for a computer or other product. For example, if a user chooses to employ the device in conjunction with a lap-top computer, the user may adjust the first and second fastener members so as to provide an optimal slope or angle to the particular surface which is supporting the laptop computer, regardless of whether or not the support device is placed directly on the user's lap or on some other external support surface, such as a table or the tray-table on an airplane, etc.
In another embodiment of the laptop computer support of the present invention, the third panel includes not only a (first) hinged edge hingedly connected to the second hinged edge of the second panel, but also an oppositely-disposed second hinged edge. This second hinged edge of the third panel is hingedly connected to a hinged edge of a fourth panel, with the fourth panel having a free edge opposite the fourth-panel hinged edge. In this particular embodiment, the releasable and adjustable fastener combination may be positioned between the fourth panel and the first panel. As noted above, if desired, the fastener combination may include a first fastener member on the first panel and a second, cooperating fastener member on the fourth panel.
With reference to either embodiment described above, the first, second, third, and fourth panels of the laptop computer support may be made of any of a number of suitable materials. For example, depending upon the weight of the computer or other product to be supported, the panels advantageously may be a vacuum formed structure, such as polystyrene, or it may be injection molded and formed of polypropylene. If polypropylene is used, it may be molded into a shell for each of the panels and a separate insert forming the exposed panel surfaces may be used, such as a foam rubber, preferably with a non-skid surface. Similarly, with regard to the hinged connections, these connections may be formed in any suitable fashion using any suitable material. For example, if desired, any of the hinged connections may be formed using: a binder tape; a “living hinge” (typically made of a flexible plastic material); and/or separate, molded hinges, which may be attached to or molded into the panels in order to form a hinged connection. If the support device is injection molded, then it is contemplated that the hinges would be integrally molded and may simply be sections or webs of lesser thickness than the panels and, as such, would function as living-type hinges. The adjacent panel can be folded relative to one another at the location of the hinges (webs).
The releasable and adjustable fastener combination of the laptop computer support may be formed of any suitable material. One particularly advantageous material is Velcro® because of its durability, adjustability, and ability to maintain a particular position.
In addition, if desired, one or more of the outer support surfaces (of the first and third panels) may be provided with one or more raised surface projections. Depending upon the design of the particular projection or projections, the particular outer support surface incorporating the projection or projections may provide enhanced ventilation between the particular outer support surface and the computer or other product being supported by the support device. In one particular embodiment of the invention, the outer support surface of the first panel includes a series of surface projections, with the projections oriented in a series of parallel lines running diagonal relative to the generally rectangular shape of the first panel. Moreover, each of these linear projections includes a series of short, substantially perpendicular bisecting projections, which may be thicker than, but the same height as, the linear projections. And, while any pattern may be used, this pattern has been found to be beneficial in elevating a computer or other product slightly above the outer support surface, and increasing air flow and ventilation between the computer and support surface. If utilized in any particular embodiment of the invention, the projection or projections may be of any suitable height. A height of {fraction (3/32)} inch has been found to be particularly suitable. As an alternative to projections, the first and third panels may have a series of through-holes to provide ventilation.
Each of the component parts of the device of the present invention may be of any size which is suitable for the particular object to be supported. For example, if the support device is used to support a laptop computer, then the device advantageously is sized so as to provide an adequate support surface for the laptop computer. Moreover, if the support device is going to be used directly on the lap of the user, the device should be sized so as to provide an adequate resting surface for both the computer and the lap of the user. By way of example, in the embodiment of the invention which includes a fourth panel, the first, second, third, and fourth panels may have a width of about 12.75 inches. In addition, the first panel may have a length of about 10.5 inches, the second panel may have a height of about 1.5 inches, the third panel may have a length of about 9 inches, and the fourth panel may have a length of about 1.5 inches. These dimensions have been found to be beneficial because they accommodate a conventional laptop computer, and provide excellent support on the lap of a typical user. In addition, a device having these dimensions may be stowed easily in a laptop-computer carrying bag.
These and other objects of the present invention will become apparent to persons skilled in the art upon review of the detailed description of the invention in conjunction with the drawings.

FIG. 8 is a side elevation of the embodiment of FIG. 2 in a flat operational position; and
FIG. 9 is a top plan view of an alternative embodiment of the present invention in a fall unfolded position.
The invention will now be described in its several contemplated embodiments with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 shows a laptop computer 10 supported on a laptop computer support device 12 of the present invention, and that combination is resting on the lap 14 of a computer user 16. As can be seen generally with reference to FIG. 1, support device 12 accommodates a downwardly tilted lap 14 such that the keyboard of the laptop computer is substantially horizontal and thus is in a preferred position for the user 16.
FIG. 2 shows one contemplated embodiment of the present invention in a fully unfolded, non-operational position. As shown, computer support device 12 has a first panel 20 with a free edge 22 and a hinged edge 24 opposite free edge 22. Hinged edge 24 is hingedly connected to a first hinged edge 26 of second panel 28. Second panel 28 further includes a second hinged edge 30 opposite first hinged edge 26 which is itself hingedly connected to third panel 32 at first hinged edge 34 thereof. Third panel 32 also has a second hinged edge 36 opposite first hinged edge 34 thereof. The second hinged edge 36 of third panel 32 is hingedly connected to fourth panel 38 at hinged edge 40 thereof. Fourth panel 38 also includes a free edge 42 opposite hinged edge 40.
With reference to FIGS. 3-8, the support device 12 of the present invention is shown in a variety of operational positions. Each of FIGS. 3-8 (with the exception of FIG. 5B) depicts the four-panel embodiment shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 5B shows an alternative three-panel embodiment. In both embodiments, support device 12 includes a releasable and adjustable fastener combination which preferably consists of a first fastener member 44 located on at least a portion of the first panel 20 and preferably generally near the free edge 22 thereof. In the three-panel embodiment shown in FIG. 5B, the adjustable fastener combination further includes a second fastener member 46 located on at least a portion of third panel 32 preferably at or adjacent edge 36 thereof. In the four-panel embodiment shown in FIGS. 3-5A and 6-8, the second fastener member 46 is located on fourth panel 38. The elements of adjustable fastener combination 44, 46 are advantageously positioned such that, as shown in FIG. 5A for example, when third panel 32 and first panel 20 are brought into engagement, the fastener combination adjustably retains the position and orientation of those panels. This is depicted with respect to the four-panel embodiment shown variously in FIGS. 5A, 6 and 7.
As can be seen with reference to FIGS. 5A-7, the angle of device 12 is adjustable by virtue of releasing and re-fastening the adjustable fastener combination 44, 46 to the desired location. While it is preferred to use corresponding hook and loop fastener material for the fastener combination 44, 46, other suitably releasable and adjustable fastener mechanisms can be utilized. If hook and loop strips are utilized for the adjustable fastener combination 44, 46, that material is advantageously adhered to the respective panel members with a suitable adhesive backing, and may comprise continuous strips or one or more segments.
FIG. 8 shows the support device 12 in yet another contemplated configuration which is substantially flat. In this orientation, panels 20 and 28 are substantially parallel to panels 32 and 38. The fastener combination 44, 46 will retain the device in this orientation. Such an orientation is contemplated for providing support of the laptop computer and as an aid to prevent it from sliding off the lap of the user. Furthermore, the device will insulate the lap of the user from the heat generated by the computer itself The orientation shown in FIG. 8 is also one potential orientation for the portability of the device in that when folded flat in this orientation it is easily stored in a laptop computer carrying case. FIGS. 3 and 4 show alternative flat configurations.
Again with reference to FIG. 2, there is shown a top, unfolded view of the support device. As can be seen, the upper support surface 21 of first panel 20 may include upraised projections or ribs 50 in a defined pattern. Such ribs 50 are for the purpose of raising the computer slightly off of the support surface to increase the ventilation for the computer. Such projections may have any suitable height but a height on the order of {fraction (3/32)}″ of an inch has been found to be suitable. These projections may also provide a non-skid surface such that the computer is less apt to slide around and potentially fall off of the support device and lap of the user. Likewise, the underside of third panel 32 has a surface 33 which contacts the lap of the user. Advantageously surface 33 may also include either a non-skid material to further aid in preventing sliding and shifting of the support device 12 and computer on the lap of the user, or more preferably, the same type of ribs 50 found on surface 21. This may be particularly helpful for computer users on airplanes or riding in another mode of transportation where there may tend to be jostling or movement. It is important to prevent the dropping of the laptop computer as that is a very significant cause of the catastrophic failure of such computers. Also, by having the ribs 50 on both surfaces, the device 12 can be flipped over and used in that orientation.
With respect to the hinge construction used in hingedly connecting the various panels of the devices described herein, living hinges, which are well known in the art, are preferred. In fact living hinges can be molded into the device at the time of fabrication. Furthermore, a relatively heavy duty binder tape could be used to hingedly adhere adjacent panels which themselves are typically of foam construction. Also, any manner of molded hinge construction would be suitable.
FIG. 9 is an alternative embodiment of the present invention in a fully unfolded position. This embodiment is in all respects the same as that shown and described with respect to FIG. 2, with the exception that there are no upraised projections 50 in the FIG. 9 embodiment, but rather there are a series of through-holes 60 in the first and third panels 20 and 32. In addition, if the surfaces 21 and 33 of panels 20 and 32 are not already of a non-skid material, then non-skid sections 62 can be utilized. For example, relatively thin rubber sheets 62 can be adhered to surfaces 21 and 33 at the noted locations to provide a non-skid effect.
It is to be understood that various changes and modifications may be made to the preferred embodiments discussed above without departing from the scope of the present invention, which is defined by the following claims and equivalents thereof.

Antioxidants and antioxidant enzymes in higher plants (eBook, 2018) [WorldCat.org]
I thought you might be interested in this item at http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/1029078181 Title: Antioxidants and antioxidant enzymes in higher plants Author: Dharmendra Kumar Gupta, (Phytoremediation researcher); José M Palma; Francisco J Corpas Publisher: Cham, Switzerland : Springer, [2018] ISBN/ISSN: 9783319750880 3319750887 OCLC:1029078181
Dharmendra Kumar Gupta, (Phytoremediation researcher); José M Palma; Francisco J Corpas
This book provides an overview of antioxidants and antioxidant enzymes and their role in the mechanisms of signaling and cellular tolerance under stress in plant systems. Major reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging/modulating enzymes include the superoxide dismutase (SOD) that dismutates O2 into H2O2, which is followed by the coordinated action of a set of enzymes including catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and peroxiredoxins (Prx) that remove H2O2. In addition to the ROS scavenging enzymes, a number of other enzymes are found in various subcellular compartments, which are involved in maintaining such redox homeostasis either by directly scavenging particular ROS and ROS-byproducts or by replenishing antioxidants. In that respect, these enzymes can be also considered antioxidants. Such enzymes include monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDAR), dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), glutathione reductase (GR), alternative oxidases (AOXs), peroxidases (PODs) and glutathione S-transferases (GSTs). Some non-enzymatic antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid (vitamin C), carotenes (provitamin A), tocopherols (vitamin E), and glutathione (GSH), work in concert with antioxidant enzymes to sustain an intracellular steady-state level of ROS that promotes plant growth, development, cell cycles and hormone signaling, and reinforces the responses to abiotic and biotic environmental stressors. Offering a unique compilation of information on antioxidants and antioxidant enzymes, this is a valuable resource for advanced students and researchers working on plant biochemistry, physiology, biotechnology, and signaling in cell organelles, and those specializing in plant enzyme technology.

A structure is fabricated, being formed of a substrate carrying a fluorescent film on one or both surfaces thereof, wherein the substrate is transparent with respect to incident radiation used for the fluorescence reading/recording. A patterned structure is applied to the fluorescent film under predetermined process conditions, such as to produce a fluorescent patterned structure with a surface relief in the form of an array of discrete fluorescent regions. The same procedure is repeated a required number of times, so as to obtain at the end of the process a multi-layer optical information carrier.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to optical storage systems such as optical disks, cards, etc. which are of ROM (Read-Only-Memory), WORM (Write-One-Read-Many) or Rewritable types. In particular, the present invention relates to such system which utilize fluorescent materials.
3. �Micro-Optics, Elements, Systems and Applications�, Ed. H. P. Herzig, Taylor & Francis, p. 153 (1997);
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION By taking the above-mentioned into consideration, a major object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing multi-layer fluorescent optical information carrier of ROM, WORM and Rewritable memory types in the form of CDs, cards or similar products, such carriers providing high density of optical memory, high resolution, high fluorescence signal and high signal-to-noise ratio.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Let us consider a first embodiment of the invention contemplating the use of the hot embossing method for formation of a pattern of a plurality of discrete portions of an active fluorescent material.
EXAMPLE 1 Fluorescent compositions were prepared in diacetone alcohol, using 2% by weight PVC (polyvinylchloride) chlorinated and 1.3% by weight (with respect to PVC chlorinated), of Oxasine 1. The fluorescent solution obtained was filtered, deaerated at 40� C., and applied on a PVC film having a thickness of 40 microns. A layer with a 0.15 μm thickness was obtained by means of K Control Coater (RK Print-Coat Instruments Ltd., UK),
EXAMPLE 2 A similar method as in Example 1 was performed but with a polyester film of 100 microns thickness as a substrate. The quantum output of fluorescence was 55%, contrast�2.
EXAMPLE 3 A similar method as in Example 1 was performed but with polymethylmetacrylate as the thermoplastic polymer instead of PVC chlorinated, and a polyester film of 100 microns thickness as a substrate. Hot embossing was carried out at 115� C. The quantum output of fluorescence was 50%, contrast�2.5.
EXAMPLE 4 A similar method as in Example 1 was performed but with polyvinylacetate as thermoplastic polymer. The quantum output of fluorescence was 60%, contrast�2.0.
EXAMPLE 5 A 0.03 molar solution of the fluorescent dye Oxasine 1 in UV-adhesive 203705 (Locate Corporation, USA) was prepared. This solution was applied in a press 20 shown schematically in FIG. 2, to the surface of a nickel stamper 22 by means of a centrifuge to form a fluorescent layer 24. A substrate 26 constituting of a 80 μm polycarbonate film was laid on the stamper. Then the UV-casting/embossing process was carried out as follows: the structure was subjected to a pressure of 4-5 atm. and, at the same time, was exposed to UV irradiation from a UV lamp 28 directed to the end of a flat block 30 made of quartz glass. The power of the UV lamp was 400 W, and the exposure duration was 3 seconds. The flat flock 30 and the Ni stamper are surrounded by rubber sheets 32.
The substrate with the photohardened fluorescent composition, forming the relief stamped by the stamper, was separated from the stamper and the material was subjected to lamination. Five single layer materials were stuck together in order to produce a multi-layer material, having quantum output of fluorescence of 50%, contrast�2.5.
EXAMPLE 6 A similar method as in Example 5 was performed but with the film Bicor MB777, 42 microns thickness (Mobil Plastics Europe) as a substrate. The quantum output of fluorescence was 75%, contrast�3.0.
EXAMPLE 7 A similar method as in Example 5 was performed but with a polyester film of 100 microns thickness as a substrate. The quantum output of fluorescence was 50%, contrast�4.0.

will come back again~ - Review of West Coast Divers, Chalong, Thailand - TripAdvisor
will come back again~ - West Coast Divers
“will come back again~”
Ranked #10 of 45 Boat Tours & Water Sports in Chalong
I travelled on my own to Phuket and spent 4 unforgettable days on this lovely boat.
The diving crew are very helpful and professional while the locals helping around on the boat can foresee problems and solve it before you even realize. As a solo traveler, I never feel lonely or uncared of. Nothing negative at all.
Scuba diving for leisure starts to gain popularity in China and since I came back I have already shown countless times on various occasions the documentary video the DM Fernando shot for us and gave us as free but great souvenir. It is so beautiful that a lot of friends asked me about the trip, the boat, the crew and I recommended it without hesitation. Personally I would love to go back in the near future!

Unforgettable live-aboard experience
This was my first live-aboard experience and I can warmly recommend it to everyone. The Pawara is a very beautiful boat, very well maintained to cater to all needs. Although there are not a lot of big fish that can be spotted around the Similan Islands (we saw one leopard shark and 2 turtles but no whale sharks, no manta's) , there is an abundance of wildlife : plenty of murray eels, parrot fish, snappers, groupers... Particularly 'Richelieu Rock' is very nice dive location.
What makes this experience so special though, is the atmosphere on board. Especially the Thai crew can't do enough for you. I'm a vegetarian and even if there's a vegetarian option during every buffet, the cook still prepared two to three vegetarian dishes especially for me during every meal (and they serve 5 meals per day). Even with 4 dives a day, I still managed to gain some weight during this trip. A big thumbs up for the Thai crew. The two dive guides we had on board (Fernando and Paulo) are very knowledgable about the dive spots and in general fun guys to hang out with on the boat. Conditions permitted and if possible they offer every diver the possibility to take part in a more relaxed (reef) dive or a more strenuous dives with a bit more current. The atmosphere on board is very relaxed and I can recommend this trip to everyone with a passion for diving. Just try not to step on the coral as it is already deteriorating because of the diving and the illegal fishing that takes

Pawara was recommended by Aussie Divers and it turned out to be an excellent choice. As a former PADI professional, I am impressed by the professionalism and dedication shown by Marco and his team. It is of a standard that properly surpassed my experience on a Great Barrier Reef liveaboard. Safety was uppermost in Marco's mind while having fun and his dive briefings were detailed and gave us a great preview of what we could expect to see underwater. Though marine life may not be as great as what I remembered Similan and Phuket to be, I enjoyed the marine life for what it is even at the Boonsung Wreck. A BIG BIG Thank You too for to the dedicated Thai crew team who zealously filled our tanks and helped checked us in and out of the waters; you are the best! Also Thank You for doing your best to help take care of Nicholas's special requirements for food; just a suggestion though that perhaps food that contains nuts could be labelled. That cookie did have an effect on Nicholas but it was taken care by the end of the day. Nevertheless, we had a great four days of diving and loads of wonderful memories!

Great Liveaboard Trip!
We joined West Coast Divers for a trip aboard the MV Pawara from 6-10 November. The trip was booked through Super Divers in Patong. We were promptly picked up from the airport for departure from the pier at Khao Lak. Our bags were loaded on board and we were greeted with wine and snacks. The dive lead, Marco, introduced the crew, took our information and we were off. The cabins were clean. The boat noise was audible but tolerable; we never had problems sleeping. The food was good, and the entire crew was always friendly and willing to help.
The only downside, and reason why I can’t give 5 stars, was that a large amount of people got temporarily ill from the food. For my wife, it lasted about 18 hours. The kitchen area looked very sanitary, so it was likely caused by spoiled food brought on to the boat. The crew was very apologetic and ensured us that this would be corrected in the future.
The dive sites were phenomenal. Elephant Head Rock at the Similans and Richelieu Rock really stood out. The abundance and variety of marine life was awesome. The highlights included cuddlefish, octopus, nurse sharks and turtles. Marco was our instructor for the PADI Advanced Open Water course. He was very methodical and calming when briefing the dives. Underwater he always found hidden creatures and showed us the best spots. Excellent instructor. There were never more than four people per divemaster.
Going on land at the Similans and Koh Tachai was also great. We visited the islands after all the day trip boats had departed. The beaches were phenomenal, and we were able to do some hikes to explore the islands.
All around, we had an awesome dive experience with West Coast Divers, and I’m confident the food problem will be corrected.

An experiance of a life time...
My husband and I (late 20s) had our first LOB experience on MV Pawara with the amazing team of West Coast Divers. We did A LOT OF research for this trip and man oh man... Did we ever LOVE our experience. It surpassed our already high expectations.
The dive masters: Marco ?????????, Brian, Fernando and Timos were completely beyond our expectation. And the support crew, the cooks, the guys taking care of ALL the gear related tasks (changing tanks, helping with putting on equipment, taking equipment as soon as you get out of water, etc), and of course the captain were all top notch!!! :)
We had a master cabin with a small bathroom and a standing shower, AC and a safe ( which we never used because we didn't feel it was necessary) and we found it extremely comfortable. It was lovely to walk into our cabin after the first dive to a made up room! :) thanks to the lovely ladies on the boat... :)
We were both Advanced and Nitrox certified. We did 4 Nitrox dives a day for three days and two on the fourth and ate four amazing meals every day.
We had 1 dive master per groups of max 4 people which gave us all a chance to be close to the dive master on every dive and not miss anything.
The dive masters were all fun and easy going in and out of water. They were always there to ensure that you loved every minute of your LOB!
One suggestion: if you are considering booking, make sure you book through themselves rather than a middleman dive shop. We booked through a dive shop ( a pretty reputable one too), and we had issues with our gear. Even though the the Pawara team ironed out all those problems, I wondered to myself "why not just book with the team you're diving with directly??" They were extremely organized!! Furthermore, seeing the service we got, I would have much rather for them to get paid in full rather the amount minus a commission.
Overall, we will do this again and will highly recommend it to our family and friends.
Happy diving! Have a blast!

ECB calls for tougher regulation of foreign bank branches | Daily Mail Online
Published: 11:46 EST, 6 April 2017 | Updated: 11:46 EST, 6 April 2017
VALLETTA, April 6 (Reuters) - The European Central Bank has proposed that large branches of foreign banks in the European Union be subject to tighter regulation and capital requirements, a move that would increase U.S. and Asian lenders' costs and also hit British banks after Brexit.
But now the ECB is proposing the law goes further and requires branches of foreign banks to be included in the EU holding company, a move that would likely raise foreign lenders' capital requirements. The draft law had exempted branches.
The ECB move was welcomed by France, whose large banks have been lately hit by U.S. competitors, and also pleased smaller EU countries where branches of foreign banks operate, because it would reduce lenders' risks by stepping up controls and the transparency of their operations, officials briefed on the envoys' meeting said.
But the legislative change would hit EU's larger financial centres making them likely less attractive to foreign banks as headquarters for their continent-wide operations. Britain "strongly disagreed" with the ECB proposal, the source said.
In a joint paper, sent to EU countries and seen by Reuters, they said the requirement to set up a holding company in the EU would increase costs for foreign banks, "risking significant disruption" to economic functions provided by these companies to EU businesses and households. They cited in particular risks posed to asset management activities of U.S. banks in the EU. British banks are also likely to see the costs of their EU activities soaring after Brexit as they would be treated as foreign lenders. (Editing by Jeremy Gaunt)
