UNITED NATIONS – The U.N. special coordinator for the Middle East peace process says a "profound and persistent deadlock" between Israelis and Palestinians is slowing efforts for a permanent status agreement by September.
Robert Serry told the Security Council on Tuesday the two sides' failure to meet their earlier agreed timeline for a September accord is "dramatic." He is calling on both parties to work toward a two-state solution, and on the international community to help them.
Serry is expressing concern about Israeli settlement activity inside Palestinian territories. He also says the indiscriminate firing of missiles from Gaza into Israel must stop, and Israel, which has carried out airstrikes on Gaza, must show restraint.

A 20" skirt is used when the mattress is at its highest setting and the child is newborn. As the child grows and you start to lower the mattress, the 20" skirt becomes too long and the 14" skirt is used. Some choose to purchase both the 20" and 14" skirt, but others decide to purchase only the 14" skirt and deal with a little shortness in the beginning.

Prehistoric Life Captured in Amber Remember that Spielberg movie where scientists extract dinosaur DNA from an insect trapped in amber, and then clone modern day dinosaurs? THAT was fiction. THIS, however, is reality. Edmund Scientifics commissioned a leading amber specialist and entomologist to go on expedition to the Dominican Republic with the distinct purpose of unearthing authentic amber fossil specimens. We were fortunate enough to secure a very limited number of hand-selected amber samples containing prehistoric insect inclusions that date back at least 15-20 million years. Each highly polished sample was collected and prepared from the famous La Toca and La Cumbre mines in the Santiago region of this Caribbean island nation, and each has been examined and authenticated by the resident geologists from Ward's Natural Science Labs. These are truly remarkable pieces. Presented atop a mirrored LED-lighted base, actual prehistoric insects are clearly displayed to you beneath a tripod magnifier for intimate examination. Averaging 3/4" to 1" in size, each unique amber piece glows beautifully atop the base creating a dramatic conversation piece. Could these insects contain the actual DNA of a larger prehistoric beast? Maybe, but that's not very likely. Will this unique fossil piece generate great conversation and stimulate curiosity? Absolutely yes!
PREHISTORIC LIFE CAPTURED IN AMBER includes:

Aronian and Carlsen sharing lead at Amber
Levon Aronian and Magnus Carlsen are sharing the lead at the 2011 Amber Blindfold and Rapid Tournament, after three rounds. The world's number 2 and 3, who drew twice with each other today, scored 4.5 points out of 6 games in total.
General info
The 20th Amber Blindfold and Rapid Tournament takes place at the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort in Monaco, from March 11 to 25, 2011.

Aronian and Carlsen in lead together after three rounds
Round 3 report courtesy of the official website
In the third round of the Amber Blindfold and Rapid Tournament, Levon Aronian and Magnus Carlsen have taken the joint lead. Their direct encounter ended in a 1-1 tie after a rollercoaster rapid game, which was enough to shake off yesterday's co-leader Alexander Grischuk. The Russian lost ½-1½ to his compatriot Sergey Karjakin. After three rounds Aronian and Grischuk top the blindfold standings, while Carlsen is first in the rapid competition.
The Game of the Day Prize was awarded to Vugar Gashimov for his fine blindfold win against Anish Giri.
The blindfold game between the leaders Levon Aronian and Magnus Carlsen was a rather uneventful affair. 'There is not much to say', was the Norwegian's correct comment. Aronian regretted his plan with 9.Bc3 and 10.Bb2, which led to a 'very boring game'. They played on till move 37 and then, as 'there were no breaking points' (Carlsen) they agreed on a draw.
The rapid game was a draw of a completely different nature. John Nunn rated it high on Aronian's swindle scale and Carlsen could only shake his head in disbelief and compare the game to a similar experience he had against the same opponent two years ago. The opening wasn't a big success for Black, who particularly disliked his bishop move 8…Be6. After 15.Qb3 Aronian felt that he was as good as lost, 'but then with 15…a5 the usual swindling started'. For the moment without much success as with 18.Qc6 Bxd5 19.Qxd5 Carlsen could have gotten a most pleasant advantage. But instead (Carlsen: 'Which idiot spurns the possibility to get a position with a healthy extra pawn?') he started a tactical excursion that ended in a position that was fine, but not as good as it could have been. And then White started to drift and ended up in a lost position. Which was the moment for Aronian to lose the thread. After 44 moves the players decided that the rook ending was a draw.
Last year's winner Vasily Ivanchuk suffered his third loss in this Amber edition in the blindfold game against Hikaru Nakamura. The American played well, and unlike some of his previous games he not only played well, but also moved quickly. Nakamura was critical of Ivanchuk's 15.Nxb6 (better 15.a4 followed by a5) which gave him 'a very easy position'. Still, Ivanchuk in normal shape would certainly have fought back better against Black's initiative. Now he lost a piece in broad daylight after only 27 moves.
Although he was Black in the rapid game, this time it was Ivanchuk who was calling the shots. He got a promising advantage, but felt that he had lost the thread of the game when faced by too many attractive possibilities. And as happens so often in such situations of luxury, the advantage evaporated and a draw was the result.
In the blindfold game between Vugar Gashimov and Anish Giri, the young Dutchman took a gamble that backfired. He knew full well that the line he played against the Keres Attack was dangerous, but he hoped his opponent wasn't familiar with it. And, on top of that, they were playing blindfold, weren't they? Indeed Gashimov's knowledge ended relatively early (after 13.f4), but that didn't stop him from continuing forcefully. His move 18.Rd3 was strong and soon Black made a mistake with far-reaching consequences. Instead of 20…f6 he absolutely should have played 20…f5 with reasonable play. After his mistake Black's minor pieces were shut off from the action and White could start his final assault. The last chance of survival Giri had was 23…h5, when he missed that opportunity the rest was suffering. Giri was annoyed with himself, but when he watched the replay of the moves on a monitor he magnanimously admitted: 'Actually it was very nice how he finished it.' Indeed you shouldn't miss the textbook mating net that Gashimov weaved.
Faced by a Benoni in the rapid game, one of Gashimov's favourites, Giri opted for a line that he had once seen Loek van Wely use to beat Veselin Topalov. The choice was intended as a tribute to his second, who will arrive in Monaco later tonight to assist Giri. There was nothing wrong with this choice, but with 23.Bf1 he spoiled the advantage he would have had after 23.Qd2. And things got even worse when he erred with 31.g3 instead of stopping the black rook from coming to a1 with 31.Re1. Suddenly Giri was fighting for survival, which he managed to do when Gashimov allowed himself some inaccuracies.
Alexander Grischuk had good hopes in his blindfold game against Sergey Karjakin, but had to settle for a draw. 'I had an advantage but it is unclear where I should have played better', the Russian summed up the course of the game. An essential part of Black's defence was 25…a5, 'a great move by Sergey' in Grischuk's words.
In the rapid game Karjakin scored his first win. 'As always' his white game against Grischuk saw a Najdorf. With his choice of sub-variation Karjakin may have sprung a surprise on his opponent, as he copied the game Dominguez-Grischuk from last year's Amber which Grischuk had won. Black's difficulties started with 19…Bd7. Better would have been 19…h5 to stop White from moving his pawn to h5. Karjakin profited from his thorough preparation, He only started to think after Black's 21st move, which he had looked at in the morning, concluding that it was not the most accurate. Black's final mistake came on move 29, where he should have tried 29…Bc5. After 29…Bc6 White stayed ahead a pawn and the rest was a classical case of 'technique'.
In their blindfold game Vishy Anand and Boris Gelfand followed in the footsteps of a game Gelfand played last year (with the white pieces!) against Peter Leko. Anand deviated with 20.Nb1, where Gelfand had gone 20.Ne2. A complicated struggle developed where Gelfand gradually got into trouble after 26…Nxb2 (better was 26…Ne5) and 36…f5 (he should have played 36…Bb6). Now Black was lost, but Gelfand continued to fight and was rewarded for his perseverance when Anand missed a win on move 57. He could have won with 57.Ke1 Bf7 58.Kd2. Anand had been under the misconceived impression that he would win with 59.h6, but when he reached the point where he could play it, he realized that Black holds the draw with 59…Kf6.
After a very sharp opening in the rapid game Anand got a better game with the black pieces. After 24 moves he had the feeling that he had Gelfand on the ropes, but that was the sign for the Israeli grandmaster to start defending incredibly well. After the game Anand said that he had mainly played on 'out of irritation' for letting slip his advantage. The irritation paid off. Gelfand gradually lost the thread of the position and after 53 moves Anand cashed a full point.
At the start of the blindfold game between Vladimir Kramnik and Veselin Topalov there was a distinctive interest on the journalists' part if the two old rivals would shake hands or not. Let's say that to both it didn't come as a surprise that they did not. The game didn't go too well for Topalov. Playing passively he allowed White to build up a formidable centre. Kramnik criticized the plan with 18…Rb8 and 19…b6 as being too slow. Afterwards the Russian was not sure if he had followed the correct route, but when he saw that he could win an exchange he went that way. Still, things were not entirely clear, Black's bishops were strong, and he also was afraid that he might once again spoil a well-played game with an oversight. But this time any possible stumbling blocks were removed when Topalov overstepped the time after 40 moves.
The rapid game was a tense fight. At first Kramnik seemed to be on his way to a second win, until he let Topalov creep back into the game. The tables were turned completely when the Russian gave up a pawn out of free will, but failed to use the space he had created for himself. A further mistake made Topalov's task easier and soon Black's resistance collapsed.

Had Anand not 'missed' the win against Gelfand he would be in the lead today. But again he is human after all....
You could use that argument in any match:
Hadn´t Giri...
Hadn´t Naka...
Hadn´t Magnus...
With no mistakes on the table every game would have been draw (maybe that is Anans wet dream?

There are no dumb questions. He just didnt know and now he does. Thats what forums are for too.
Such questions show complete ignorance by the one who asks them. And if a person has so little knowledge about professional chess then does it really matter if they are rated or not? Why is this information important for a person with so little knowledge about professional chess?
I guess the most important question is: Is the Handshake Gambit still playable after today?

Do you think that you are good enough to play with former World Champion??? He will beat you "blind" & sleeping.
He was not saying that he is good enough to beat the FORMER world chess champion. He was making a rhetorical statement of how much he dislikes Topolov as a person and his manners by saying he would not only shake hands with him but refuse to play him.

Another tournament that tells me that the battle for the world champion-title without Magnus is like playing WC in football without Brazil...
3 years 1 month ago
MC didnt want to play - His choice. .. are you saying all others should just pack their bags and go home.. ?! Who ever fights and wins will win the championship when the time comes.
Magnus, for all his talent, is still to prove himself one-to-one with the real fellow-greats like Kramnik, Aronian, and the World Champion himself. In fact, he has a negative score against Anand and Kramnik in recent years in tournaments, if I remember right.
Let us not make the WC all about Magnus Carlsen until he wins the World Championship. It would not be fair to the other serious World Championship contenders, especially Aronian, who on paper has the best one-to-one record in the last few years against the World Champion.
Chess Fan
In Carlsen's case what matters most is that he is one of the greatest chess players of our time, just the fact that he has been good enough to compete with players like Anand and Kramnik in their peaks while still being a teenager himself says enough about what a player he is. Aronian is almost 10 years older and hasn't "proved himself one-to-one with fellow-greats" either, so both he and Carlsen have lots of time for that.
Again, this is all speculation.
As I said, Aronian in the near future and Magnus after that may have the best chance on paper to take Anand's crown next (whenever it happens), but let us not forget Kramnik or even Karjakin or Grischuk. Until, it happens, we never really know.
But I do agree that Magnus, like Aronian, is one of the greatest of our time, and perhaps of all time. As a "Chess Fan" I am in awe of their games.
I as a Anand's fan (of his chess, his humility, and what he does for the general people both in India and other parts of the world) hope he keeps winning until chooses to retire on his terms in about 5 years or so. Hope his games, continues to be World Champion like.
Chess Fan
Wrong anology. Brazil has won the World soccer championship record number of times. Till Magnus wins a single world championship (and he will in the future in all probabilities if he actually plays one), it is all good speculation.
Besides comparing Chess (a mental/intellectual/psychological warfare game) with Soccer is not exactly the right idea, the obsession with soccer in Europe and the rest of the world not withstanding.
Soccer may be the gold standard for you people, but here in the States we consider it a gentle game for boys wearing shorts much tamer compared to the hard hitting real mans game - football. So, please do not annoy us Americans with your boys game for all chess analogies. We understand that it the best game we have got, but we have got baseball, basketball, and of course, the great football. When talking chess, give valid points in chess, Don't compare and bring in idiotic points from Soccer or even Tennis.

It would be nice if either Kramnik or Topalov finally showed matureness by offering a handshake. It's common practice in for example football for the referee to let two fighting players come to him and make them shake hands. Apparently we need such referees in chess too...

Hi Peter:
Out of a sudden I can no longer watch the videos from Chessvibes. I keep getting this message that Quicktime needs a certain componement. The message directs me to a Quicktime components page at apple.com but there are a number of third parties components there and I have no idea which one is missing for Chessvibes video to work again in my computer. I have tried Chessvibes in another computer and the same thing happened. Any idea what is it that I need to do? I have been a regular at your site for years and this has never happened before. Thanks and regards,

Anand is consistently winning against carlsen in normal time controls.
I wonder if he lost a couple of games against carlsen .
In that case i believe carlsen would have been declared the world champion .

"This style of "Save the Date" in magnets is amazing. It looks elegant but yet very creative! The colors are very bright and sharp images. Using the designer review option was great!"
"The design team was awesome! They helped me customize the magnet just the way we wanted it. A few of the magnets weren't printed all the way to the edge, but other than that the print quality is great! We plan on ordering our invitations from WPD too!"
"I received my save the date magnets the other day, and honestly, I couldn't be happier. There is always a level of nerves when you are ordering something online so I was anxious to get the package. They came out perfect. I was so happy to be able to discuss with my designer the colors and she did a perfect job. Since on the preview you couldn't alter the colors, I simply explained my wedding to her and she did a fantastic job giving me 4 choices. A week after and I even got a hand written card from her (thank you Rachel Davis!). I'm so pleased and am looking forward to ordering my wedding invites through WPD too!"
"We wanted something simple, to the point and fun. This fits it all. Lots of compliments, never get tired of looking at the design. The only thing that could be better is if they let you choose bride and groom features. But overall fantastic!"
"At first I was worried I couldn't order a sample of the magnet, but when I received them in the mail (earlier than expected), I was so happy with the final result. I can't wait to mail my Save the Dates and order my wedding invites in the future!"

Hack Your Program: The University of Texas at Austin School of Information
02/06/2011 § 24 Comments
The above image is the philosophy of information science of the UT iSchool, one that manifests in its approach to curriculum and preparing students to enter the workforce. I began the program in the fall of 2010 and expect to graduate May of 2012. My decision to attend the UT iSchool was influenced by in-state tuition (my parents live in Texas), the reputation of the school, and the versatility of the program. I am kind of in love with the program, though it isn't without its flaws. Needless to say, these opinions are strictly my own!
The UT School of Information (colloquially, the iSchool) was founded in 1948 and offered a Masters of Library Science. The School of Library and Information Science was founded in 1980 as a response to the increased focus on information science as a discipline and profession. To fully reflect the interdisciplinary focus of the program, in 2000 the school removed its Masters of Library Science and instead only offered a Masters of Information Science, which is what it still offers today. In 2002, the name of the school officially changed its name to the School of Information.
Programs Available
The UT iSchool offers two degrees: a Master's of Information Science and a PhD.
The iSchool Master's program prides itself on an interdisciplinary approach that combines the theoretical with the applicable, which is reflected in its coursework. The Master's program requires 40 credit hours to graduate, 24 of which must be in the iSchool. The core requirements are currently in flux, with the incoming class having a different set of requirements than those already in the program. For those entering the program, the core courses are: Information in Social and Cultural Context, Perspectives on Information, and Understanding Research. For those currently in the program, we are subject to a somewhat more involved set of core requirements with 5 courses instead of 3: Understanding and Serving Users, Organizing Information, Managing Information Organizations, Introduction to Research in Information Science, and the nebulous Introduction to Information Science. Many students, myself included, are unhappy with the core requirements we have to complete: 5 courses is a lot, the focus is wildly different depending on the instructor, and they are often "blow-off" courses. The new core requirements do a good job of eliminating the more ambiguous courses (ahem, Introduction) and combining similar courses (such as Organizing and Users), but are so theoretical that it will likely take a few years before there is a consistent focus. In fact, some professors I've spoken to are a bit confused about what the courses are meant to be about.
Beyond the core courses, the only other mandatory course is a Capstone in the final semester. The Capstone can be an academic paper (either a thesis or a report) or an internship. Most students choose an internship and the career services coordinator does a wonderful job of advertising positions and helping you search. We are free to do just about anything for our Capstone so long as we can find a faculty advisor to support the project; in fact, we're encouraged to find internships that either fulfill an interest we couldn't otherwise fulfill with courses or supplement courses we've loved. I think the Capstone requirement is crucial for the program, giving students an opportunity to explore the discipline and expand their resumes.
There are three areas of study in the iSchool: Information Architecture, Librarianship, and Preservation and Archives. While there are no course requirements for these areas of study (though there are suggestions), there are many course offerings aligned with these area. In addition to those three areas, the iSchool offers 3 specializations which do come with their own set of requirements: a Certificate of Advanced Study (intended for individuals who already have a MIS or for students who want a little more coursework without a PhD), an Endorsement of Specialization (which allows a student to tailor his or her coursework), and a School Librarian Certification (the state of Texas requires all K-12 school librarians to be certified). Finally, the MIS program offers several dual-degrees with Women's and Gender Studies, Middle Eastern Studies, and a Juris Doctor.
The elective courses vary in subject matter, from reference services to information policy and law to programming. Everyone is encouraged to take a more "technical" course, with the most popular choices being Database Managment and Usability. I took digital media collections and web design and loved them both. There is a definite switch towards information architecture and digital studies in the course offerings which can leave us librarians feeling a bit left out; you just won't find more "practical" library courses like Metadata and Description in the course guide anymore.
The Master's program boasts an impressive U.S. News Ranking, rated #8 in Library and Information Studies, #1 in Preservation, #13 in Digital Librarianship, and #3 in Law Librarianship. Additionally, the program has a bit more competitive admission standard than other programs, admitting only about 50% of applicants in 2009.
Funding for the iSchool, like many other programs, is difficult to get. There are a few iSchool scholarships, the applications for which are due about the same time as the application, and Teacher's Assistanceships, but those are both difficult to obtain. Because the iSchool is involved with many professional associations (see below), many funding opportunities exist within those organizations; for example, I was awarded a small grant from the Texas Library Association for the 2011-2012 school year. Because the iSchool is an ALA-accredited program, ALA scholarships are similarly available. If you are unable to find outside funding or need more help with tuition, the University of Texas offers in-state tuition after one year of residency, making tuition (relatively) affordable.
Professional Associations
The iSchool is home to a few active professional groups: the ALA/TLA Student Chapter, Society of American Archivists, CHIPS, ASIS&T and ArTex, to name a few.
The iSchool JobWeb is one of the best information-related job search sites in the country (I've seen it listed as a resource for many different universities). In addition to round-the-clock access to the JobWeb, our career services director sends out weekly emails with job and internship opportunities, useful and interesting articles, and words of encouragement.
Though the iSchool only offers a few distance-learning courses in its offerings, it is a member of WISE (Web-based Information Science Education), a consortium of several top-tier information schools "to provide a collaborative, cost-effective distance education model that will increase the quality, access, and diversity of online education opportunities in Library and Information Science." Basically, qualified students are admitted to WISE, which provides the opportunity to take really fantastic courses from member schools around the country for credit.
One of the biggest perks of the UT iSchool is its location. The Austin area is home to several universities including St. Edward's University, Texas State University, Southwestern University, and Austin Community College. In addition to the Austin Public Library, the small town of Georgetown, Cedar Park, and Round Rock are nearby and have their own libraries with volunteer, internship, and employment opportunities. Finally, the UT campus is home to the world-renowned Harry Ransom Center, the Briscoe Center, the Blanton Museum of Art, and several libraries. If you're looking for something in the for-profit world, Austin has Dell, Google, and about a dozen video game studios. Being in the Capitol isn't all bad: in addition to having dozens of government employment opportunities, Austin has the Texas Film Commission and Texas State Library and Archives. If you can stand the heat, Austin is a great place to live.
Being an iSchool (as opposed to a library school), often the course offerings feel a little esoteric or unapproachable. While the faculty is committed to providing a well-rounded information program, students often complain that we leave without any good applicable skills. Increasingly, the curriculum is moving away from a traditional library curriculum and towards a information architecture one–a move which is understandable given that it is, after all, an iSchool, but frustrating for those of us who want to work in a library setting. Similarly, because the program is doubling up on core requirements in the Fall (due to half the program having new requirements), there are fewer elective offerings because the instructors are tied up teaching the cores. The curriculum is undergoing quite an overhaul, though, so time will tell how it evolves.
As the saying goes, it works if you work it. Course offerings vary in content, theory, and focus: you will find courses each semester that are challenging and exciting and fun (most of the time, in fact, you'll have a hard time narrowing it down to a manageable course load). I'm sure once I've completed my degree, I will feel confident and prepared to begin my information career. Please contact me for more information about UT, the iSchool, or Austin!

Very interesting to read a summary of the program. Great post! UT Austin was my second choice, but I ended up at IU Bloomington.
I would be interested in hearing what incoming students feel about the shift from 5 courses to 3 courses. I have found that at IUB we also struggle with professors knowing what core courses are supposed to be "about". My favorite is "Evaluation of Resources and Services" in practice it is a research methods class mixed with a little bit of everything you can think of.
I have to disagree with the final assessment about classes being "esoteric".
I am a student at UT as well and find that the heaviest emphasis is on archives. Information architecture is increasingly prominent, but our book lab and the opportunities for internships in archives around Austin are still two of our program's greatest strengths.
The class offerings are becoming increasingly digital–including the archives offerings–but that makes them more relevant, not more esoteric.
Sara, I think that's a good point. The book lab is an amazing resource and one that unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to take advantage of.
Perhaps "esoteric" wasn't the right word–because a lot of the digital courses are still new, the professors are still "sorting them out." I really enjoyed my courses, but some of the time I have a hard time imagining how those skills will manifest in my future career.
Thanks for your perspective!
Thank you so much for this post! I'm going to be starting here in the fall– I know orientation is around the corner, but this is important, too. Are you currently in Austin? I'd love to buy you a cup of coffee and pick your brain. :)
I too will be entering UT Austin in the fall. Thanks for the interesting write-up!
Thank you so much for your post! I'm applying to the iSchool for fall of 2012 (I'm allowing myself the extra time to ensure that I have time to apply for scholarships). I was wondering–how difficult it is to get into the iSchool? Also, were Teacher Assistant positions difficult for first-year grad students to obtain?
Like the other UT student above, I disagree that course offerings are skewed towards information architecture. Honestly, as an information architecture student, I feel beaten over the head with constant library and archives activities, organizations, and courses- I find that most of our professors assume we're going to be working in libraries and archives, and often forget to account for the fact that some of us won't be. Take another look at the course catalog- there are only a handful of classes specifically for IA.
If anything, I think the courses are moving towards being about knowledge and information in general, rather than specific job skills. But like you said, it works if you work it- I feel like I'm building a lot of valuable skills.
Excellent series! Will anyone be writing on the Univ. of Michigan?
I love this series as well – is every ALA-accredited list expected to be written about? Or the posts just dependent on who wants to write about their program? I ask, because I'd like to write about the program I am finishing… :)
I graduated from UT's ischool in 2006, and I'd say this report is right on target.

It would also enhance reference courses to discuss situations where advocacy and service are at odds. [...]

Thanks for this wonderful post. It was very helpful to me in gaining some insight into whether UT-Austin was a possible fit for me. I turned in my application for next fall so we'll see what happens now I guess!

Hampshire County Council is pressing the Abbotswood developers to complete the highway improvement works on Romsey's Cupernham Lane/Winchester Hill Junction to install traffic signals following further delays.
Councillor Sean Woodward, Executive Member for Economy Transport and Environment at Hampshire County Council, said: "The roadworks being carried out by the Abbotswood development are again falling behind schedule due to problems with their drainage design, conflicts with underground services and the performance of some service companies. We have been advised that they will not manage to finish them until late July.
"This is a completely unsatisfactory situation for the residents of Romsey and we are again pressing them to improve their performance and to complete the works as soon as possible.
"In addition to concerns over the time it is taking to complete these works we have reservations about the adequacy of the retaining wall that they have designed and constructed and are looking at ways to resolve these issues without causing further delays to the project. If any remedial works are deemed necessary these will be carried out at a later date to prevent further delays and will be at the developer's expense.
"We continue to do everything we can to bring about completion of the works as soon as possible so that the temporary traffic lights can be removed and the disruption and inconvenience they cause to residents and motorists can be brought to an end."
Winchester Hill will be clear for the Romsey Show.
The junction works are necessary as part of the Abbottswood Major Development Area (MDA) planning conditions and are being funded and implemented by the Abbottswood Consortium under licence from Hampshire County Council.
The scheme is part of a package of measures designed to manage the impact of additional traffic from the Abbottswood development which should benefit all road users in Romsey by helping to maintain the flow of traffic through the area.

(RNN) – This year's national championship is the best of both worlds: Your daddy's rivalry mixed with the type of play calling that even young football fans can love.
Notre Dame's spread vs. Alabama's bloody chin defense is a matchup football purists say they hate; inside, though, they're dying to see how it plays out.
But please, let's leave behind the feel-good mush that several weeks of feature stories have given us. The breakdown of this game is about talent matchups, strategy and cold, hard numbers.
Notre Dame's line has given up 16 sacks all year (seven less than Alabama), which might lead one to say, "Wow, they're pretty solid." Don't let that fool you.
They move the pocket and run the football a lot, which covers over the line's inability to protect Everett Golson against good defensive fronts. The end-to-end speed of Alabama will expose that.
Alabama isn't always fun to watch for fans with a taste for five-wide and multiple option looks, but they do what they do better than anyone else in the country. People automatically think of the three-headed monster of Eddie Lacy, T.J. Yeldon and AJ McCarron, but Amari Cooper had at least 100 receiving yards and one touchdown in three of the last four games.
And let's not forget about the Crimson Tide's offensive line, which gets more media attention than most other teams' skill players.
Advantage: Alabama.
Let's talk about the elephant in the room: Fighting Irish inside linebacker Manti Te'o. I recently sang his praises as the no-brainer choice for Heisman, but after looking more closely at the game tape, it's obvious he will be a minimal factor against Alabama.
Te'o is a classic coverage linebacker and the beneficiary of a play Notre Dame loves to run out of its 3-4 front. It calls for two linebackers to slide with crossing receivers, fooling the quarterback to think they're in man coverage while Te'o stays in zone. That play alone is a major reason he is one of the nation's leaders in interceptions. However, when he comes up to play the run he gets easily handled one-on-one, and even when he is unblocked he makes some bad reads in the backfield.
A healthy dose of misdirection plays, steady pounding from the All-Americans on Alabama's interior line and an offense that keeps the ball on the ground two-thirds of the time should wipe out Notre Dame's heart and soul.
While the Crimson Tide definitely has its weaknesses on defense, Notre Dame won't effectively exploit them.
Think of it this way: Facing Notre Dame is basically like a second go-round with the Texas A&M offense, except not as dynamic, and armed with a month of film study. Notre Dame averages more than 200 rushing yards per game, and Alabama gives up less than 80.
Someone is going to get their feelings hurt, and odds are it won't be anyone wearing red.
Alabama ranks 12th in the nation in kickoff return yards and 40th in punt returns.
Where is Notre Dame, you ask? Does 115th and 84th sound pretty good to ya? Yeah, not so much.
So we can pretty much forget about the Irish turning the field upside down on a game-changing play. I mean, it could happen, but so could a nuclear holocaust.
Really? We're really going to debate this?
Advantage: Some guy whose name rhymes with Nick Saban.
This is Notre Dame's motivation: "Guys, we went from unranked to No. 1, and people still don't think we have a chance."
This is Alabama's motivation: "Guys, Coach Saban always talks about ripping people's hearts out of their chests, but this game he promised we can do it for real!"
Notre Dame was nearly upended by six teams this season, including some that weren't that good. That's not an accident.
If not for turnovers, Stanford would have scored early and often and kept pouring it on, and Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh??) would have earned a monumental upset. Even woeful USC gave the Irish all they could handle.
The history of a 5-1 all-time record against Alabama adds to the Irish hype for this game, but you can't put history or hype in shoulder pads.
This is Alabama, after all. Along with the prospect of winning three BCS titles in four years, the Crimson Tide is convinced it is the best team in the country, and it is correct in that assertion.
Calling a team this good an underdog is just plain dangerous. Ask Florida.
Outcome: A battle of wills always falls in favor of the tougher team, and the Crimson Tide is definitely a tougher unit overall. Final score: Alabama 27, Notre Dame 16.
And who said the rivalry would die once the Aggies moved from the Big 12 to the SEC?
A pair of spread offenses in a sold-out Cowboys Stadium could make this one of the top bowl games this year, BCS or not.
And this newsflash just came down on the wire: Oklahoma can't stop anyone from running. That's a bit of a problem when you're facing Johnny Manziel, who alone makes up for nearly half of his team's 235 rushing yards per game.
Texas A&M's defense, although not what I would consider "good," played better competition than Oklahoma and has a potential first-round draft pick in Damontre Moore.
Both teams have five-game winning streaks, but Oklahoma's came against Iowa State, Baylor, West Virginia, Oklahoma State and TCU. What did those guys do all season?
The Aggies beat Alabama and Mississippi State, both ranked teams, and previously lost to LSU and Florida by a combined eight points.
Advantage: Texas A&M.
OK, all seven people who care about this game can stop whining. We didn't forget you. There there, now go cheer for a team that matters.
Actually, that's a bit unfair. The Rebels could be a nine-win team rather than 6-6 if things had gone differently in close losses to Texas A&M, Vandy and LSU. They have an offense that's as exciting as any when Bo Wallace isn't sharing the ball with the other team (15 interceptions, 19 touchdowns).
The Panthers were ahead by two touchdowns before losing to Notre Dame in triple overtime, and the Irish tried to give the game away with a pair of interceptions. Speaking of which, Tino Sunseri has thrown 270 consecutive passes without a pick, the longest streak in the nation. If you actually knew that, you deserve some type of prize.
This game should (shockingly) be a good one – in a girls tussling after school sort of way.
Advantage: Pitt.
This week's unique stat: Both Texas A&M and Oklahoma were outscored by the exact same margin in the fourth quarter: 105-98. That freaky precursor means things could get wild in the final minutes of the game.

Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) refers to a chronic condition that affects the nerves and blood vessels of one or more limbs.
There are two types of CRPS:
- CRPS 1, also called reflex sympathetic dystrophy or RSD, has no observable nerve damage.
- CRPS 2, also called causalgia, produces similar symptoms after a verified nerve injury has occurred.
The cause of CRPS is not known. The condition likely results from several factors. It may involve overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. This directs automatic body functions that a person cannot control. Inflammation may also play a role in the disorder.
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase your risk of CRPS include:
Symptoms usually appear after an injury. The most important symptom of CPRS is prolonged pain that may be constant or severe. There are different types and ranges of pain. Types of pain include burning, throbbing, aching, squeezing, or shooting.
Symptoms of CRPS change over time and may include:
- Sensitivity to touch or even a light breeze
- Swelling in the arm or leg
- Unusual sweating patterns
- Excessively warm or cool skin
- Hair and nails changes which may become brittle and crack
- Abnormal movement in the arm or leg, such as a tremor, jerking, or spasms
- A pale, blue, and/or shiny look to the skin
- Limited joint movement
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. To diagnose CRPS, the doctor uses four criteria:
- An initial traumatic or painful event to a limb, or keeping the limb still for a period of time
- Continuing pain in the limb that is out of proportion to any stimulus, such as pain with even light touch
- Swelling, changes in skin blood flow, movement problems,or temperature changes only in the affected limb
- No other cause for the symptoms
Tests may be ordered to rule out other conditions. Your doctor may refer you to a pain specialist for further evaluation and management. Tests may include the following:
- Pictures may need to be taken of your internal body structures. This can be done with:
- The electrical activity in your nerves and muscles may need to be tested. This can be done with:
- You may need to have your body's heat measured. This can be done with a thermogram.
- You may need to have your autonomic nervous system evaluated. This can be done with quantitative sudomotor axon reflex test (QSART).
Treatment aims to relieve pain and improve function. Early therapy may lead to better outcomes. In some cases, the condition goes away on its own; this is more common in children. Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Options include:
Physical Therapy
Active and passive exercises help maintain function.
With a technique called mirror box therapy, you place your affected hand or foot in a box, which has a mirror on one side. While moving your limb inside of the box, you move your unaffected limb in front of the mirror. To your brain, it appears that you are moving your painful limb easily and without discomfort. Mirror box therapy may help to reduce pain and improve motor function in people who have CRPS due to stroke.
Long-term pain often leads to depression or anxiety . Counseling is often required to help patients deal with chronic pain and loss of function.
Your doctor may recommend the following medications:
- Pain relievers
- Antidepressants
- Antiseizure medications
- Bisphosphonates
- Corticosteroids
- Topical pain relievers that are applied to the skin
- Nerve block injections
A surgical procedure called sympathectomy can permanently destroy sympathetic nerves. In some cases however, surgery may worsen symptoms.
Other Treatments
- Biofeedback
- Acupuncture
- Transcutaneous nerve stimulation (TENS)
- Implantable spinal cord stimulation
Quick mobilization after surgery or injury can help minimize the risk of CRPS in the affected limb. Other steps that might be helpful include:
- Early use of pain relievers after trauma
- Use of sympathetic nerve block after trauma
- Desensitization techniques, if needed
- Use of vitamin C may reduce the risk of CRPS after a wrist fracture.
