Jon Ginoli
Being gay in the public spotlight isn't what it used to be. Not that it's all sunshine and lollipops now, but in the early 1990s when Jon Ginoli and his Pansy Division bandmates were openly gay charter members of the queercore pop movement, it was a bit more challenging. Throughout the '90s, Pansy Division proved to be an album machine, cranking out discs at a steady annual rate. They were also fearless road warriors, on tour much of each year. Now that the band has slowed its pace, Ginoli has had time to write his memoir, Deflowered: My Life In Pansy Division (Cleis Press), on being one of the earliest gay recording artists to break through to Top 40 radio and MTV. While in the Twin Cities promoting his tome, Ginoli will be working like he did during his nonstop touring years, hitting up three venues in just two days. At 7 p.m. on Saturday he'll be discussing the book at Magers & Quinn Booksellers (3038 Hennepin Ave. S, Minneapolis; 612.822.4611). Sunday he has a doubleheader: First, he'll appear at Common Good Books (165 Western Ave. N., St. Paul; 651.225.8989) at 2 p.m., then again at the Bryant-Lake Bowl (810 W. Lake St. Minneapolis; 612.825.3737) for a more comprehensive chat at 6 p.m. for $8.

Music Today The Stranger Suggests

JJ Grey & Mofro (The Blues) The beauty of the blues comes from the universality of suffering. So even though he's a native of the North Florida backwater of Whitehousesomewhere near Jacksonvilleyou and JJ Grey have something in common. The main man behind the slide-guitar-twangin', southern soul-singin' combo called Mofro, Grey laments the loss of his pastoral native soil to condos and parking lots. That's something Seattleites know all about. (Neumo's, 925 E Pike St, 709-9467. 8 pm, $15 adv, 21+.) JONATHAN ZWICKEL

Welcome to the Issy-Les-Moulineaux website
Welcome to the Issy-Les-Moulineaux website
Votre parcours : Issy.comHomeIssy Sustainable Urban DesignIssyGrid®, first operational district level smart grid in France
Discover IssyGrid®, the first French pilot project for district level energy usage optimisation, created by an Issy-les-Moulineaux city and Bouygues Immobilier initiative.
The first French pilot project for district level energy usage optimisation, IssyGrid® was created by an Issy-Les Moulineaux city and Bouygues Immobilier initiative with the help of stakeholders mastering all strategic and technical skills required for the implementation of a smart grid : Alstom, Bouygues Energie et services, Bouygues Telecom, EDF, ERDF, Microsoft, Schneider Electric, Steria and Total.
This first district level smart grid is a reality.
The initial equipments have been implemented: several office buildings, a hundred homes as well as part of the street lights in the Seine West district are now connected to the smartgrid.
The goal of this system is to enable the city of Issy-les-Moulineaux and the district's inhabitants to save significant amounts of money by pooling complementary needs and resources of offices, homes and businesses, and by levelling energy consumption peaks.
Fields of application of IssyGrid® will progressively be extended to other sites in town, and even to other energy grids in the Seine West and the Issy fort districts.
Development of IssyGrid® information system
Operational since 2012, this information system covers the consumption of the entire district. Therefore it enables the analysis of energy production and consumption in order to advice and encourage consumers, in partnership with the electricity distribution network, to consume at "the right time" in order to reduce peak demands.
94 homes equipped with smart meters
94 homes of the Seine West district have been equipped with smart meters. These meters, implemented by ERDF (French Network distribution of electricity) in July 2013, gather live data on the global energy consumption of all concerned households. Individual bills will be issued to each home based on actual consumptions. Householders will be able to track their consumption in a better way. Later, most of the maintenance at the client's premises will be conducted remotely.
Around 20 of these 94 homes are equipped with a measurement and warning meter box, installed by Bouygues Telecom (Internet provider). Consumption analysis will soon be initiated for these homes within the district's data analysis centre. Users will therefore be able to compare their consumption data with those of similar households and get advice on how to consume in a smarter way.
Smart grid in two office buildings ready
After the test building Galeo, the Bouygues Immobilier's Headquarter, the Sequana Tower occupied by Bouygues Telecom has also been equipped with a building management support system and now participates in the levelling of peak demand. A first "scrubbing" experience was conducted on the 29th July 2013 by modifying the air conditioning system. Though it was not felt by Bouygues Telecom staff, this first experience alone saved 500 kWh during the peak demand.
It will also be possible to control battery charging speed (slow/fast charge) of 8 electric vehicles, by modifying it according to the electric grid charge and users' booking schedule.
The EOS building, housing Microsoft and Steria, will also soon be equipped with a building management support system.
Lastly, the Sequana tower is fitted with solar panels, connected to the electric distribution substation. Energy produced by these panels can therefore be stored or redirected to the grid.
Implementation of a smart grid for street lighting
Smart street lights have been installed in three streets of the Seine West district. Thanks to these innovative equipments, street lighting will be adapted to road traffic, time and season. This system will enable Issy-les-Moulineaux to generate substantial savings.
An augmented reality visit "in vivo"
An application for a tablet was designed to enable visitors to visualise in augmented reality the main applications of IssyGrid®. The goal is to allow experts, local authorities, companies and institutions to access on-the-ground data about the main operational features of IssyGrid®.
Deployments to come
Among the next important steps in the months to come, is the installation of the electric distribution station of Bara street which, thanks to data supplied by Issygrid information system, will balance energy consumption, production and storage in connection with the regional office of the grid management agency. It will become a smart station by integrating a battery based storage solution using recycled batteries from electric vehicles. This experience is a world first.
Four other steps are also scheduled:
- Development of new digital tools enabling creation of new services for energy consumers and producers.
- Integration of additional renewable energy resources: a building permit application will be submitted in the coming weeks for the implementation of solar panels and a weather station on top of the Trieo building.
- Installation of batteries for energy storage in the Trieo building
And finally, progressive integration of the 1600 homes of the Issy Fort's district within the project IssyGrid®. Equipped with captors and sub-meters, they will, gradually, be connected to the district analysis centre and, as soon as 2014, will be fitted with ERDF smart meters.

Military Rescues Ecuadorian President From Protesters
The military has clamped down in Ecuador after a day of protests and drama yesterday. Troops rescued President Rafael Correa from a hospital where he had been surrounded by protesting security forces. He was being treated at the hospital after rebellious police roughed him up and tear gassed him.
Correa said the protests yesterday were an attempt to throw him out of office and seize power. Protesters began the demonstrations against a new austerity law that would cut benefits for public servants. The demonstrators seized government buildings, blocked highways, and shut down the airport. At least three people were killed and dozens more wounded.
The Associated Press has these details of the rescue:
Dramatic images of the rescue, broadcast by TV stations, showed one helmeted soldier dressed in black and wearing a flak jacket apparently struck by a bullet. He tumbled down a small embankment outside the hospital. The Red Cross said at least one civilian was also wounded.
At the hospital, Correa had vowed to defend his dignity and leave either "as president or as a corpse." He also negotiated with some of the insurrectionists, but whether any were placated was unclear.
Regional leaders and the United States voiced their support for the Correa regime. Hugo Chavez of Venezuela and Evo Morales of Bolivia both blamed the US for the riots.

Prototype Chain
Every object created by a constructor has an implicit reference (called the object's prototype) to the value of its constructor's "prototype" property. Furthermore, a prototype may have a non-null implicit reference to its prototype, and so on; this is called the prototype chain. When a reference is made to a property in an object, that reference is to the property of that name in the first object in the prototype chain that contains a property of that name. In other words, first the object mentioned directly is examined for such a property; if that object contains the named property, that is the property to which the reference refers; if that object does not contain the named property, the prototype for that object is examined next; and so on. (§4.2.1 Objects).
function MyConstructor() { } alert(MyConstructor.prototype); // Look what we get for free!
function MyConstructor() { } var anObj = new MyConstructor; // [[Prototype]] comes from MyConstructor.prototype
Every user-defined function has a prototype property, provided by the implementation. The prototype property that is provided by the implementation has a
constructor property that points back to the constructor function.
function MyConstructor() { } alert(MyConstructor.prototype.constructor);
function MyConstructor(id) { this.id = id; } MyConstructor.prototype.method = function() { return this.id; }; alert(new MyConstructor("h").method());
The prototype property is used for prototype inheritance of shared properties. When any function is used in a new Expression, a new object is created and given a link to the constructor function's `prototype` property.
Internal Prototype Properties
All objects have an internal property called [[Prototype]]. The value of this property is either null or an object and is used for implementing inheritance. Named data properties of the [[Prototype]] object are inherited (are visible as properties of the child object) for the purposes of get access, but not for put access. (§ 8.6.2)
function MyConstructor() { } MyConstructor.prototype = { toString : function() { return "[object MyConstructor]"; } }; alert(new MyConstructor().toString())
As shown in the above example, any function's prototype property can be replaced by any user-defined object.
Why Subclass?
function MyConstructor(name) { } MyConstructor.prototype = { toString : function() { return "[object MyConstructor]"; } }; function MySubclass(name) { } MySubclass.prototype = new MyConstructor;
// Base class. function MyConstructor(name) { this.name = name; } // Prototype. MyConstructor.prototype = { toString : function() { return "[object MyConstructor]"; } }; // Subclass. function MySubclass(name) { // Call super constructor. MyConstructor.call(this, name); }
JSBin Example: http://jsbin.com/upuQAtAV/1/edit
(whiteboard diagram)
// Extend prototype. MySubclass.prototype = Object.create(MyConstructor.prototype); MySubclass.prototype.valueOf = function() { return this.name; };

Kengeter's Thwarted UBS Plan Spurs Gruebel Cuts to Buoy Returns
Carsten Kengeter, charged with rebuilding UBS AG's investment bank two years ago, is being thwarted by regulators and the departures of top managers. Analysts say that may be for the better.
Since 2009, when Chief Executive Officer Oswald Gruebel gave Kengeter the task of returning the money-losing unit to an annual pre-crisis profit of 6 billion Swiss francs ($6.7 billion) by 2014, its revenue has trailed that of competitors, including Deutsche Bank AG and JPMorgan Chase & Co. The Zurich-based firm's share of fees and trading revenue declined the most of any of the world's nine biggest investment banks over the past five years, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Gruebel, 67, described the unit's performance in February as "not yet satisfactory" and said he would cut costs if revenue didn't increase. In the past two months, four of the 10 business heads who reported to Kengeter have said they'll leave.
"They're not going to be able to repair this bank back to pre-crisis levels," said Simon Maughan, co-head of European equities at MF Global Ltd. in London, who has a "sell" rating on UBS. "Too much damage has been done, and the world has moved on. Gruebel needs to revise down his targets for the investment bank, as they aren't going to meet them. The market knows they haven't got a chance."
Capital Rules
Gruebel may cut his targets for the investment bank because they were set before the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision stiffened its rules last year, forcing lenders to set aside more capital for their riskiest operations. Swiss regulators have forced UBS and competitor Credit Suisse Group AG to fulfill Basel's stricter requirements on trading-book capital since January, a year before their international competitors.
The Swiss government, which rescued UBS with a 6 billion-franc capital injection during the financial crisis, last year proposed making the country's two biggest banks hold almost twice as much capital as the new Basel rules will require starting in 2019. That means Swiss banks would have to earn twice as much as international competitors to achieve the same return on equity, a measure of profitability.
"These banks are very big relative to the Swiss national balance sheet," said Simon Johnson, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Sloan School of Management and a Bloomberg News columnist. "They can't afford to get into an Iceland or Ireland type of situation."
Cutting the fixed-income unit's 8 billion-franc annual revenue target by half would reduce the capital consumed by the division and improve UBS's return on equity by 17 percent, according to Nicholas Watts, an analyst at Redburn Partners LLP in London who has a "buy" rating on UBS shares. The bank's shares are up 5 percent since the start of the year.
Missing the Boom
UBS, which ratcheted down risk after taking more than $57 billion in writedowns and credit losses during the financial crisis, missed out on the boom of 2009. It was the only one of the nine biggest investment banks to report a loss from fixed-income trading that year.
More than 1,700 people were hired across the investment bank in the past two years to replace bankers who were fired or had left. As fixed-income trading revenue came close to UBS's target in the first half of 2010, Europe's sovereign debt crisis struck, and revenue fell by more than half in the second six months of the year.
"I don't think investors either think that it's particularly achievable or particularly desirable" for UBS to return earnings to their pre-crisis level, said Piers Brown, a London-based analyst at Evolution Securities Ltd. who rates the bank a "buy." "If they came out with a more modest, realistic set of targets that would, perversely, probably increase the valuation of the securities unit."
Kengeter Takes Charge
Kengeter, 44, joined UBS in December 2008 from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. to help restructure the fixed-income business that was most responsible for record losses in the crisis.
Gruebel, a former bond trader and CEO of Credit Suisse, came out of retirement in February 2009, and two months later put Kengeter in charge of revamping the entire investment bank along with Alexander Wilmot-Sitwell. Wilmot-Sitwell, 50, moved to Hong Kong last year to help run the bank's Asian unit, leaving Kengeter as the sole head. UBS declined to make Kengeter or Gruebel available for an interview for this story.
The investment bank posted its first annual pretax profit in 2010 since 2006. The gain of 2.2 billion francs accounted for 29 percent of UBS's total earnings. By 2014, the securities unit aims to generate 40 percent of the bank's 15 billion-franc profit target. It produced a pretax return on equity of 8.7 percent in 2010 compared with the 45 percent return made by the division that includes wealth management and Swiss banking.
Market Share
"The wealth-management business is very profitable, and that is still a very, very good business to have," said Guy de Blonay, who manages 1.5 billion pounds ($2.4 billion) including UBS shares at Jupiter Fund Management Plc in London. "Where the story has to improve and become the big driver for earnings over time is the investment bank. Nobody is really believing that Gruebel will reach his target" for fixed-income revenue.
Kengeter told Swiss magazine Bilanz in an interview published in December that he wants to bring UBS's equities business to the No. 1 spot and fixed-income trading to a top-five place globally.
UBS ranked fifth in fixed-income trading in 2004, when John Costas headed the investment bank, and was second only to Goldman Sachs in equities trading, which includes the sale and trading of stocks, equity derivatives and services for hedge funds, according to Bloomberg data. The investment bank has since gone through five CEO changes and six management replacements at the debt-trading unit.
Revenue Trails
UBS was fifth in equities last year and ninth in fixed income, Bloomberg data show. The figures may not be fully comparable because European banks such as UBS and Deutsche Bank use different accounting standards from their U.S. counterparts.
While UBS doubled its share of the more than $180 billion of revenue from trading and investment banking produced by the nine biggest investment banks last year from the previous year, it was still the smallest, trailing Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Bank of America Corp., Citigroup Inc., Deutsche Bank, Barclays Plc, Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse, Bloomberg data show.
The lender's 6.9 percent share of combined revenue last year was 2.9 percentage points lower than its 2006 level, the biggest drop among the nine banks, when adjusted for gains or losses from banks' own credit spreads that some firms report as revenue, the data show.
'Damaged by Events'
The firm's share of fees from advising on mergers and acquisitions, underwriting stock and bond sales and syndicated lending this year is at its lowest level in more than a decade, according to New York-based consulting firm Freeman & Co. UBS may be missing out on some larger deals because constraints on its balance sheet limit the amount of financing it can offer, former UBS bankers said.
"The bank clearly has issues," said Evolution's Brown. "On the equities side, the franchise has definitely been damaged by events of the last two to three years. There is no doubt that they don't have the same traction in either cash equity or on the advisory side that they had pre-crisis."
In 2010, UBS was a top-three player in only cash equities trading, one of the 12 main investment-bank businesses, according to Christopher Wheeler, a London-based analyst at Mediobanca SpA. There the bank's position is being threatened by increased competition from banks including Credit Suisse, JPMorgan and Barclays, he said.
UBS saw the biggest improvement last year in credit trading, which includes underwriting, sales and trading of bonds, derivates, notes and loans. It posted revenue of 2.3 billion francs, more than double the 2014 target. Credit trading will be one of the areas within the investment bank most hurt by the changes in capital rules, according to Wheeler's estimates.
The bank will assess each of its investment-banking units on a "desk-by-desk basis" to boost returns, Chief Financial Officer John Cryan said in February. The bank may seek to "de-emphasize some businesses that look as though we can't make them profitable or they use too much capital for the profit potential," he said.
The bank is "optimizing our business mix in light of the regulatory environment," spokesman Dominik von Arx said in an e-mail. "We are assessing the impact of the new capital standards and taking appropriate action as needed."
With revenue slow to rebound, the bank is cutting costs. UBS probably reduced headcount at the investment bank by about 5 percent in the first quarter to reflect a "less buoyant revenue environment," Huw van Steenis and Hubert Lam, analysts at Morgan Stanley, said in an April 13 note to clients.
Pay for Performance
Gruebel has said UBS wants to link pay more directly to performance. While average compensation in the investment bank rose last year, some underperforming bankers had their pay cut, according to current and former bankers who asked not to be identified because they weren't authorized to speak. Levels of voluntary attrition at the bank are lower than before the crisis, von Arx said.
The four senior bankers leaving this year are Neal Shear, a 56-year-old former Morgan Stanley executive who headed UBS's securities business for about a year; Dimitrios Psyllidis, 44, co-head of fixed income who's leaving for personal reasons; John Wall, a UBS veteran of more than 23 years and co-head of investment banking since September 2009, who retired last month; and Matthew Koder, head of the global capital-markets business, who took a job at Bank of America. All four declined to comment, didn't return phone calls or weren't reachable.
'Vicious Circle'
"It's a vicious circle," said Chris Roebuck, a visiting professor at Cass Business School in London, who has worked at UBS, HSBC Holdings Plc and KPMG LLP. "Once you've lost senior people, more think about leaving."
Other departing bankers include European mergers co-head Pat Guerin, 40, who left for Citigroup last month; Stuart Hendel and Charlotte Burkeman, who are moving to Bank of America as global head of prime brokerage and co-head of prime brokerage for Europe, the Middle East and Africa; Michael Vasseghi, head of U.S. macro structuring, who joined the bank in 2010; and Greg Morris, head of U.S. equity structured products distribution.
"The recent comings and goings in the management team at UBS have raised some eyebrows," said John Purcell, managing director at executive search firm Purcell & Co. in London. "In particular, the loss of Koder will smart. Some of the other departures UBS will feel quite relaxed about and are just natural attrition and the rough and tumble of City life."
UBS needs to come up with a new plan for its investment bank to alleviate uncertainty that may be pushing some bankers to leave, said Mediobanca's Wheeler, who has an "outperform" rating on UBS and expects the bank to disclose the results of its business review later this year.
"People don't like uncertainty," Wheeler said. "The problem that everyone is wrestling with is: Can you shrink an investment bank of that scale, and will that mean that you would lose a lot more people? It's a very difficult one."

Chelsea 0 Norwich 0
Having insisted all season that Chelsea are not good enough to win the Premier League, it seems that Jose Mourinho has finally convinced his players. Chelsea's involvement in the title race ended with the weakest of whimpers, as they barely threatened Norwich, whose hard-working point has kept their own faint survival hopes alive for another few days.
Norwich could even have left with all three points required to keep their fate in their own hands had Neil Swarbrick, the referee, awarded them a first-half penalty when John Terry brought down Martin Olsson. Instead they must rely on Sunderland losing two

Welcome to the website of the Liberal Democrat Group on Surrey County Council
The Liberal Democrats on Surrey County Council are calling for action to be taken by the council to recruit and retain more Social Workers in the County. The need for action follows an inadequate rating by Ofsted inspectors of Surrey's Children's Services in a report published last month.
There is also a growing need for Social Workers to protect vulnerable adults with an increasingly ageing population in the County.
OFSTED carried out an inspection of services for children in need of help and protection, children looked after and care leavers in Surrey in October and November 2014. Today it published its inspection report with the overall judgment that Surrey County Council's Children's Services are "inadequate".
In the report, OFSTED inspectors found "widespread and serious failures that potentially leave children at risk of harm." They were particularly critical of the inadequate leadership, management and governance of Children's Services in Surrey.
The Inspectors found that a reorganisation of Children's Services in March 2014 had resulted in a significant number of children in need not receiving an adequate service. For example, the service for children who go missing from home or care was judged inadequate because the children do not always have a return interview to ensure that they are safe.
The County Council also had failed to demonstrate the impact for neglected children with child protection plans. Many case records for children were not up to date and lacked enough detail to show sufficient support to help children.
Leader of the Liberal Democrat Opposition on Surrey County Council, Cllr Hazel Watson, said: "This report is a shocking wake up call for the Conservative administration at County Hall."
She continued, "Protecting vulnerable children from harm should be the top priority for the County Council. Sadly the leadership and management in Surrey have been severely lacking, which has put such vulnerable children at risk of harm."
Cllr Hazel Watson added: "The County Council has already started work to implement all of the recommendations made by the Inspectors. These include improved training for social workers, better assessment and planning for looked after children and more support for care leavers. I am pleased that the work to put things right is already underway."
Cllr Hazel Watson will be continuing to work with the Conservative administration and representatives of other Political Groups to ensure that the report's recommendations are fully implemented. She is also pressing the County Council to do much more to recruit and retain social workers in Surrey so that there are enough experienced social workers to provide the best service possible for Surrey's children.
Cllr Hazel Watson concluded: "Surrey's Conservative administration has to make significant improvements in Children's Services as it has brushed the problems under the carpet for far too long. I hope that following the recent change in the Cabinet member responsible for Children's Services in Surrey that this new leadership will result in rapid improvement."
The Liberal Democrats on Surrey County Council are calling for the threshold number of signatures on a petition to be reduced from 10,000 to 3,000 to allow a petition to be debated at full Council meetings.
Cllr Hazel Watson, Leader of the Liberal Democrat Opposition on Surrey County Council, said:" The Conservative administration at County Hall is setting the threshold for the number of signatures on a petition to allow it to be debated at full Council far too high at 10,000. It should be drastically reduced to 3,000 signatures to give residents a realistic chance of presenting a petition for debate at full Council."
Almost one-third of Surrey parents are unable to take up childcare places with most failing to take up the childcare places because it is too expensive according to a recent report published by Surrey County Council. Instead, they have to rely on other family members, particularly grandparents, to help with all or some of their childcare needs if they want to return to work or study.
Cllr Hazel Watson Leader of the Liberal Democrat Opposition on Surrey County Council said: "Childcare costs in Surrey are so expensive that many parents just cannot use the childcare that is available as it leaves them in a pay-neutral or pay-negative position."
This arises where the cost of childcare plus the cost of travel wipe out someone's entire net of tax earnings, preventing many parents from going out to work and from earning a living to support their families.
It is also stopping those parents from contributing their skills to the Surrey economy.
Hazel Watson continued, "The cost of childcare should not be a barrier to parents taking up childcare and going to work. Childcare is a necessity for working parents, not a luxury, and should be available, at an affordable price, to all and especially to those on low incomes.
Hazel Watson added, "In order to meet this need, the County Council has to ensure that there are enough childcare places at affordable prices in Surrey to meet demand."
Hazel Watson concluded, "It is no good having childcare places on offer to parents if they are too expensive and unaffordable to parents who want to go out to work to support their families."

Liberal Democrats on Surrey County Council have proposed that the Conservative run Council shelves its planned cuts to bus services following the recent significant fall in oil prices.
Liberal Democrat County Councillor Will Forster (South Woking) said: " The County Council is currently reviewing bus services across Surrey and is seeking to cut spending on buses and bus passes by around £2 million. The recent public consultation on the Surrey Transport Review received 6,800 comments, which just goes to show how important bus services are for Surrey residents.
"At the County Council meeting on 17 March I proposed the following motion for debate:
'In light of the recent significant fall in oil prices, Council calls on the Leader of the Council and the Cabinet to ensure the Transport Review and negotiations with bus operating companies are conducted to preserve bus services throughout Surrey.'""
Cllr Forster added: "Since the Council announced its transport review, there has been significant fall in the oil price across the world and the cost of fuel is one of the biggest single costs in running a bus service. As a result, the Council should drop its planned cuts to bus services and change its approach to reviewing bus services. The fall in the oil price massively strengthens the hand of the Council to get a good deal out of the bus companies to both preserve our bus services and at a reduced cost to the council taxpayer."
The Conservative majority rejected the motion and amended it to remove the requirement that existing bus services should be preserved.
Cllr Forster concluded, "Our roads are already congested as it is, the Conservative administration at County Hall should be looking at ways to encourage public transport not reduce what little we have further. Residents clearly feel passionately about not losing their bus services, it is a shame the Conservatives running the County Council do not feel the same way."
Calls by Liberal Democrats for no more runways at Heathrow and Gatwick were voted down by the Conservatives at County Hall yesterday.
Cllr Ian Beardsmore, (Sunbury Common and Ashford Common) said: "With Heathrow claiming that expansion there would mean 120,000 new jobs, there is deep concern as to where these people will live and the consequent impact on the green belt. The local councils near to Heathrow are already struggling to meet housing demand. A similar threat remains should Gatwick be chosen over Heathrow with large areas of countryside in the southern part of Surrey at risk of being destroyed. The Conservatives refused to face up to or to answer these concerns."
One privately owned residential care home in Surrey has recently been closed by Care Quality Commission meaning that older people had to be moved at short notice. Another home close to Surrey's borders which the council has used for care packages was also closed down. A check of Care Quality Commission's website shows that there are 5 privately owned homes within 13 miles of Guildford where they have been found to be inadequate in one or more categories.
Liberal Democrat County Councillor Hazel Watson, who provided evidence to the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Parliamentary Select Committee on the rollout of Superfast Broadband in the villages and rural areas of Surrey, has welcomed the Select Committee's Report on the roll-out of Superfast Broadband.
Liberal Democrats are calling on Conservative run Surrey County Council to adopt proposals in a recently published report about carbon and energy policy which sets out ways in which the County Council could save money on its sky high energy bills and reduce its carbon emissions, benefiting the environment.

I am currently working on a project using svn (server is version 1.4 which means no modern merge tools available).
I want to merge a branch with quite a few weeks of work in it. The problem is that back when the branch was created, it was made as a copy only of a subfolder.
Svn structure of project:
Now I'm struggling to merge a branch back into trunk.
Now the problem is that the guy that created the branch only copied /trunk/folder1 and not the entire trunk. This creates a problem for git-svn, as it thinks that I created a bunch of files in the folder.
git co master
git merge branch1
create mode 100644 trunk/file1
create mode 100644 trunk/file2
(assuming that the files were originally in
The original reason i'm not using svn for this, is because of too many conflickts. (
svn merge requires server 1.5+ and we're only on 1.4,
svnmerge.py can only merge small chunks at a time and requires a LOT of mental overload ... i have used a half day to get only half way through)
git merge seems promising, but at first I need to tell git to use a subfolder of my master branch as merge target. How is that done?

Silver lined aqua 8/0 seed beedsSeptember 23, 2012
Absolutely beautiful. Have used them in making a shawl. It's still in progress, but they are the perfect color. I've found them to be very consistent in shape, especially the center as they are easy to place on the yarn with very few with too small a center hole to place on the yarn. Highly recommended.

Thank you, Alison, for your grace and perspective through these difficult times.
sorry you feel defensive cid. but i'm really asking questions. what are we asking others to emulate? how will charleston "lead by example--once again"?
I guess you could say the cyclists have really....peddled this issue. (⌐■_■)
Browse my history and tell me where I've ever said I support the second amendment.
(hint: I didn't)
Do I think guns should be entirely outlawed? Not necessarily. Single and double shot long guns are probably fine for sportsmen. But preserving unlimited, unregulated private gun ownership? Public. Safety. Nuisance.
What kills me about you 2A dickheads is that you constantly harp on the sanctity of the Bill of Rights while simultaneously supporting the modification or abolition of other amendments (namely 1, 4, 6, 8, 15, 16) that do not protect your little toys.
Amendments are malleable and should be repealed and adjusted to suit modern times. You will not lead a successful insurrection with your arms in the 21st century. Period. Give it up.
I do support stringent regulation of high capacity weapons, high rate-of-fire weapons, and highly concealable weapons. Namely anything semiautomatic, and all handguns.
Will this end gun violence completely? No. But it can mitigate the damage done in the blink of an eye.
In the meantime, I just hope that you defy statistics and avoid killing yourself or your family members with your home defense weapons.
Can anyone confirm or give context for this alleged Keith Waring quote: "Sometimes bikers have to die"?
" A few institutions with deep historical ties to the white supremacy (Coastal Community Foundation, Boeing, MUSC)..."
This is the sort of nonsense that makes further statements from you ineligible for serious consideration.
Thank YOU Alison. You've reached so many people & influenced so many lives, mine being one. I admire your courage for women's rights, education, raising Maybelle and so so much more. We've laughed & cried with you during your health struggles and columns and now I just cry..with a smile. Knowing you lived life to the fullest & built a great life for Maybelle, too. Rest & be with your family and friends these last days. We shall celebrate you now and later! xoxo
Pronghorn is right to ask about the off-duty but in-uniform cop that was on duty at the Orlando club. He certainly had his duty pistol with him. The reporting never explains exactly what happened with him except he was outside and the terrorist was inside.
Lee - I am glad to see the left is finally dropping all the disingenuous "we support the 2nd Amendment, but..." nonsense. That's intellectually honest, finally. Better late than never. I am sure that, in time, the 1st and 4th Amendments and other civil liberties will be added to the list of rights which are also just too dangerous for Americans citizens to have. Onward, comrade!
Your self-awareness and calm introspection at this point in life, one we will all reach sooner or later in one form or another, is admirable. I hope for the best outcome for you and your family.
Thank you for sharing your life with us, Alison. You're an exceptional human and a terrific role model. The courage you've shown in your columns is inspiring. May you have as much happiness and comfort as possible now and in the future.
You have been the epitome of grace and dignity and an example to us all that"for those who have fought for it, life has a flavor the protected will never know". With love, light, and prayer from a big fan.
If you are, have or know of anyone in your family that is a member of the LGBT community, a Muslim, an hispanic, etc, a vote for this pair would indicate you care more for bombastic behavior than than you care for you or your own family. This pair will destroy pluralistic (multiple faith/ no faith) freedoms and will actively work to "christianize" this country into a virtual theocracy. We were almost there with the old "Blue Laws" where your only choices for something to do on Sunday morning was go to church or sit home because those religious "blue laws" had the state on lockdown all day. These oppressive laws are still in place in rural communities but pluralistic cities have dropped them in favor of REAL freedoms. Everyone gets to now enjoy freedom. Those who prefer to go to church and take their "day of rest" are free to do that. Those who prefer to shop or dine out are free to do that. And "Blue Laws" not withstanding, those who prefer to engage only in opposite-sex relationships and marriages are free to do that. Those who prefer to engage in same-sex relationships and marriage are free to do that. Those who prefer to worship on Saturday are free to do that. Those who prefer to pray privately are free to do that. Those who prefer not to pray are free to do that. Women who prefer to control their health are free to do that - almost. Women who want government to control their health are free to do that. But these freedoms are out the door if this pair become leaders of the free world with a finger on the "Button".
Sonia Faye, not sure if you know it, but Charleston has been under Democrat government for the last 40 years, so you can stop blaming everything on the other party. They are the ones allowing the growth in Charleston, your party.
Jeff is driving down the cost of a agent representing you for a sale. He has under cut the market with his %. Long overdue in my opinion
I may not be aware of all of the "positive steps forward" that were taken after Emanuel. Please enlighten. A few institutions with deep historical ties to the white supremacy (Coastal Community Foundation, Boeing, MUSC) imported some high profile black people. But beyond that?
I love his billboards
It's been done. March 2016 http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2016/05/od…
that's irrelevant
A) How much did it cost to build the place?
B) In general, what were the rents?
No one needs a gun to protect themselves until they really need one.
Guns are a great deterrent to home invasion. Burris Liquor store employees on Meeting St have been carrying firearms for decades. Guess how many robberies they have had. Zero!

Can I record my ex face to face if I put my phone in my bra and turn on record? Is it legal! Can I use the recording in court? He is sexually abusing me verbally.
Family Law Attorney
I will start by saying I am not licensed in CA. That said let me answer your question based on general principals of law.
You cannot "secretly" tape a person. You however can hold your phone out in the open and announce you are taping your interaction. I typically tell my clients to do this in divorce and child custody cases as it tends to calm situations down.
Next, one cannot be sexually abused verbally. They can be emotionally abused, but not sexually.
I suggest you contact an attorney to discuss your situation in detail.
What earth are you on? Anyone can be verbally abuse! He has no right talk about sex to me! We are both in marriages now and I should not have to hear anything from his mouth unless it includes our child!
Divorce / Separation Lawyer
California is a two party consent state. Both parties have to consent. It is illegal to record someone without both his or her knowledge and consent. Some states have a one party consent, or knowledge, but in California it is a two party consent state.
I know over the phone is illegal, but face to face too?
Divorce / Separation Lawyer
YOu can if you obtained his consent to be recorded

GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) - Guyana's top health official is urging
popular singers to stop soaking their lyrics in rum.
Health Minister Leslie Ramsammy says recent radio hits such as "Bring De Rum" and "Rum Till I Die" are undermining efforts to reduce alcohol abuse in Guyana.
The health ministry is conducting surveys to evaluate alcohol's influence on popular culture, including chutney, a style of dance music laced with Caribbean and East Indian rhythms.
Ramsammy said Saturday that he was not suggesting a ban on rum-drinking songs but called for artists to focus more on positive messages.

The Selected Letters of Elia Kazan (Hardback)Elia Kazan, Albert J. Devlin

Elia Kazan is perhaps best known as the premier interpreter of the works of Arthur Miller and Tennessee Williams on the stage, and for his remarkable cinematic oeuvre. But these extraordinary letters reveal the entire range of his development as an artist and a man, from his early years as an actor and director with the Group Theatre to his innovative work as a celebrated director of Broadway theater and film. His founding of the Actors Studio and co-directorship of the Repertory Theater at Lincoln Center placed Kazan in the vanguard of every major theatrical development of the pre- and postwar years. Here are letters to Clifford Odets, John Steinbeck, Williams, and Miller; to to Lee Strasberg, Boris Aronson, Marlon Brando, Warren Beatty, and robert DeNiro. We see Kazan's heated dealings with studio moguls Darryl Zanuck and Jack Warner, his principled resistance to film censorship, the upheavals of his HUAC testimony, and his complicated family life. Perhaps no figure of popular culture more dramatically engaged the political, moral, and artistic crosscurrents of the postwar years than Elia Kazan.

EVM as Generic QoS Trigger for Heterogeneous Wireless Overlay Networks
Fourth Generation (4G) Wireless System will integrate heterogeneous wireless overlay systems i.e. interworking of WLAN/ GSM/ CDMA/ WiMAX/ LTE/ etc with guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) and Experience (QoE).QoS(E) vary from network to network and is application sensitive. User needs an optimal mobility solution while roaming in Overlaid wireless environment i.e. user could seamlessly transfer his session/ call to a best available network bearing guaranteed Quality of Experience. And if this Seamless transfer of session is executed between two networks having different access standards then it is called Vertical HandOver (VHO). Contemporary VHO decision algorithms are based on generic QoS metrics viz. SNR, bandwidth, jitter, BER and delay. In this paper, Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) is proposed to be a generic QoS trigger for VHO execution.

By Jonathon Burch
REYHANLI, Turkey, March 21 (Reuters) - Like most demonstrators in the crowd, Syrian university student Muaz Jaban was undaunted when soldiers began firing on their anti-government protest in his northern hometown of Ma'arra last week.
So the commanding officer ordered tanks to open fire.
Now lying in a Turkish hospital bed barely a kilometre from the Syrian border, the 22-year-old student of Arabic literature stares blankly at the bandaged stumps that were once his legs.
"We saw the tanks pull into town. In front of them were soldiers. First, the soldiers started firing on the protesters, but we stayed where we were," said Jaban's uncle, who declined to give his name for fear of reprisals on family at home.
"There was a high-ranking officer there with stars," he said, tapping his shoulder with three fingers. "He gave the order for the tanks to open fire."
A tank fired one shell straight into the crowd killing three people and wounding at least 10, the uncle said. Jaban's left leg was severed near his pelvis and his right leg just below the knee.
Unable to mutter more than a few words, Jaban listens intently as his uncle retells his story. He grimaces as his uncle lifts the blanket to reveal what is left of his legs. Fluid weeps from his wounds and stains the bedsheet beneath him.
Whether from the effects of the painkillers, shock or a mixture of both, Jaban's vacant gaze shows that reality has not yet sunk in. His trauma bears chilling testament to the increasingly violent nature of the conflict raging inside Syria.
The year-long uprising against President Bashar al-Assad, which started as a peaceful protest movement, has drawn a brutal response from his security forces and there are now clashes on a daily basis around the country.
The United Nations says more than 8,000 people have been killed so far and the toll is rising rapidly. Thousands more, like Jaban, have been wounded in the conflict which Damascus portrays as an insurrection by foreign-backed terrorists.
The violence does come from both sides. Advocacy group Human Rights Watch on Tuesday condemned tactics of opposition fighters, saying rebels in Syria had kidnapped, tortured and executed security personnel and supporters of Assad.
Reports from Syria cannot be independently verified as the authorities deny full access to rights groups and journalists.
Jaban is one of scores of wounded Syrian civilians and rebel fighters being treated in Turkish hospitals in Hatay province along the Syrian border.
Refugees sneak into Turkey day and night, scrambling through barbed wire fencing at unofficial border crossings. There are some 16,500 Syrian refugess now in Turkey with 200 to 300 people now crossing every day.
Turkey has raised the possibility of creating a "buffer zone" inside Syria to protect the fleeing civilians, among options it could take if the stream of refugees turns into a flood.
Jaban was taken to the Turkish border by rebel fighters, sometimes by vehicle, sometimes carried on a stretcher, to avoid the army checkpoints. He was finally passed through the barbed wire border fence on Sunday to a waiting Turkish ambulance.
His uncle says Assad's forces are still occupying his hometown and the surrounding Idlib province, which borders Turkey.
"The tanks are still there. Everyone is under fire," he said. As he speaks, Jaban slowly lifts his hand and pretends to pull a trigger with his finger as if to illustrate his uncle's point.
Asked if he wants to say anything, Jaban shakes his head and points two of his fingers to form a victory sign, a trademark symbol of the Syrian uprising and other "Arab Spring" revolts.
In the bed next to his, lies 36-year-old Mohammad. Unlike Jaban, Mohammad is a fighter in the Free Syrian Army, the ill-equipped opposition force battling Assad's military. He was wounded in a gunbattle with Syrian troops in the city of Idlib a month ago.
With his gaunt frame and bandaged body, Mohammad, who gave only one name, does not match the image of a fighter. He describes himself as a civilian who was just protecting his community.
"The tanks started firing on the city at 5:30 in the morning. The roofs on the houses started to cave in. They did not stop firing until lunchtime," he said.
"It was the same the next day but this time they continued until 7 p.m. On the second day, they entered the centre of the city. Whoever got in their way, they fired on them."
Mohammad was shot twice in the abdomen and once in his right arm, shattering the bone. He received rudimentary treatment in Syria a month ago and was then smuggled into Turkey on Sunday, by fighters using blankets as a stretcher.
But after he receives surgery on his arm and abdomen, Mohammad has no plans of staying in Turkey.
"We don't want to stay here. I want to go back. As soon as I can, I will go back to Syria," he said.

Ole Miss Fead Football Coach Hugh Freeze announced linebacker and Philadelphia-native C.J. Johnson will not play against LSU this weekend because of an ankle injury.
Freshman defensive end Robert Nkemdiche will also miss the rivalry game due to a hamstring injury.
Freeze also spoke about the condition of junior linebacker Serderius Bryant. Bryant was carted off the field during Saturday's game after getting knocked out while making a tackle. The Clarion-Ledger reports Bryant suffered a concussion.
"First of all., let me talk about Serderius and the amount of support that's been poured out from not only the Rebel nation, but from the [Texas] A&M family and other families throughout our conference," said Freeze. "He was back in meetings yesterday, and he started our protocol this week of how you come back from one and we'll see how he progresses through the week."
The rebels play LSU Saturday night in Oxford. The game marks the second match in a six-game home stretch for Ole Miss.

What do you all use for "training pants" when your LO's are ready to be potty trained? I DON'T want to use Pull Ups (we don't use disposables, but cloth diapers)
My DD's butt is pretty tiny (she is 20 lbs, 16 months old), and Gerber training panties seem too big!
Also, how do you poop train? My DD only poops standing up! It seems to be the position of choice for her to comfortably push out poops :- ). So, how am I going to get her to sit on the toile to poop?!
