Mon, 10 Oct 2011 08:42:24 +0100 http://www.derbycommunity.org.uk/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,26/func,view/catid,15/id,153/#153 My name is Mark and I am a 19 year old first-year student studying motorsport engineering. Since the age of 13, I raced karts and single-seaters. I had a steep learning curve, but I was able to grasp a vast amount of knowledge and I learned quickly from others around me. I was able to set several track records and had results that surprised others as well as myself. I have always set high standards for myself not only in racing, but also in other activities including downhill skiing, swimming, and running. In 2012, I plan to race in the China Formula Grand Prix series, which consists of 10 races in five weekends traveling to circuits all over the country. It gains much recognition from many other racing communities and is a great stepping-stone into higher forms of motorsport. Every race is televised and it draws a large audience. There are many interviews for the drivers. Highlights are also displayed on several news networks such as CCTV 5, which is China’s main sports broadcaster. This channel broadcasts sports news from around the world. It draws significant media coverage because there are several different series that take place on the same weekends as the CFGP races. International circuit locations include Shanghai and Beijing. I want to offer more than just the “name on the car and t-shirt.” I’m willing to attend promotional events or showcases that would represent both the F2000 car and company. Possible media broadcasts include interviews, promotions, and other events. There are many opportunities of promoting your business at the track and with the general public. Instead of having a fixed ‘package’, I want to work with you to ensure that you get the most value for your money. I’ll be willing to travel and help out with any requests you may have. The money will be used for the registration costs and some travel expenses. This is just a general proposal about my intentions and the opportunities that are available in this market. I appreciate you reading this and I am open to any questions, comments, or advice. Thank you.

Is there a group in Derby? I'm not one as such but discoverd it just before leaving my last town so I guess that makes me Steampunk curious, wondered if there were any likeminded folk out there. Tue, 20 Sep 2011 23:12:27 +0100 http://www.derbycommunity.org.uk/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,26/func,view/catid,32/id,149/#149 We're inviting all local forums users (especially the gardening enthusiasts out there) to view, buy and review the fantastic new garden tools (http://www.newravegardentools.co.uk) by Radius (ideal for gifts for loved ones) and then let us know what you think about them via our twitter account or by adding reviews to our website. We're very keen to get people's feedback about what we think are adorable, "can't put down" garden hand tools! To introduce you to them properly, here is the details of our recent Press Release we sent out. http://www.derbycommunity.org.uk/images/fbfiles/images rghandtools_nrg_hand_tools_radius.jpg Press Release Leading UK Garden Tool Suppliers (http://www.newravegardentools.co.uk), New Rave Gardening Tools have specifically created an ecommerce online trading portal dedicated to selling these fantastic new tools. A company spokesman said "We have recognised that the growth of interest in these new garden tools is so significant that we can justify the development of this new ecommerce portal to support the sector growth for direct sales to consumers; namely professional and ameteur gardeners in the UK. One of the most striking things consumers notice is the design of the product (currently patent pending) and how lightweight it feels. Most gardeners are raving about it because of the way it feels in the hand - it's soft and tactile and feels very comfortable in the hand, whilst being very lightweight and strong too. We've made the products directly available to consumers in this way, so that they can buy from the comfort of their own homes and have the item direct delivered. NRG Garden Tools Range There are 4 products in the range and New Rave Gardening sell them all online as individual products or with a cost saving of £5.14 in their Seasonal Sale, you can buy them as a set - an ideal present for any keener gardener, but sure to be a favourite with the older generation. Each garden tool features an advanced design, is very strong - (made from Aluminium), comes with a lifetime guarantee by the manufacturer, and due to the ergonimic design it penetrates the soil with less effort than conventional garden tools whilst minimising hand and wrist stress. The 4 products are - NRG Weeder (http://www.newravegardentools.co.uk/online-store?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=82&category_id=18), NRG Trowel (http://www.newravegardentools.co.uk/online-store?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=83&category_id=19), NRG Cultivator (http://www.newravegardentools.co.uk/online-store?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=85&category_id=24) and NRG Transplanter (http://www.newravegardentools.co.uk/online-store?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=84&category_id=22). Each has a recommened retail price of £12.00 and New Rave Garden Tools have reduced the price as part of a seasonal sale and are offering them for just £9.71 - a saving of £2.29 on each product. Soft Grip The NRG garden hand tools are designed for comfort. If you've ever returned from a session of weeding with blistered hands and feel like the hedge did take you through it backwards, you'll appreciate just how much comfort and grip really do matter for hand tools. The material used on the curved handle is soft - you can prod it and it sinks in a little and then reshapes itself. It feels luxurious to hold in your hand and is adorned by the tactile gardener. When you pick it up, its not hard and brittle like wooden straight handled tools - it cushions your palm and the curvature of your hand. Notes about New Rave Gardening NRG showcase innovative, new and high technology garden tools and garden accessories in the UK and are always on the lookout for new products to review and demonstrate to UK audiences. > Have currently disounted the RRP price in a seasonal sale > Specialise in showcasing innovative new garden tools in the UK > Supply the Radius Hand Tools direct to UK mainland consumers using Royal Mail 1st Class Delivery Service > Offer a telephone enquiry service - 0845 689 1391 > Provide a straight forward buying portal that accepts credit cards, debit cards and Paypal. > Buy NRG Hand Tools online at http://www.newravegardentools.co.uk Thu, 25 Aug 2011 15:07:31 +0100 http://www.derbycommunity.org.uk/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,26/func,view/catid,19/id,148/#148 FREE Employability Improvement Workshop Tuesday 27th September 2011, 12pm-3pm This extra session is aimed to offer a hands-on workshop to boost confidence, increase presentation skills and offer useful advice when going to job interviews.
