Cumbria dog show bans frisbee catching - "jobsworths" told "enough is enough"
Last updated at 11:38, Monday, 25 August 2014
"JOBSWORTHS" have been warned not to use health and safety laws to introduce "ridiculous" rules after a drive to uncover their misuse discovered frisbee bans at a Cumbria dog show and an end to donkey rides on beaches.
Frisbee catching was dropped from the Scruffs Dog Show in Keswick this summer after suggestions dogs could have injured themselves, and staff at a cafe in Bedfordshire refused to put strawberry sauce on a customer's ice cream for supposed health and safety reasons, according to the Department for Work and Pensions.
Donkey rides were banned in case sunbathers are injured and office workers at an Aldershot company have been told they must not wear open-toed shoes in the summer, according to complaints to the Health and Safety Executive's (HSE) "myth buster" panel.
Health and Safety minister Mark Harper said: "Enough is enough. It's time we were all allowed to enjoy our summers, rather than have them spoiled by ridiculous, arbitrary and downright unreasonable application of apparent 'health and safety rules'.
"Real health and safety laws exist to protect Britain's workers, and not to be used as a smoke screen by jobsworths who have little knowledge of the law and who want to fob people off with an easy excuse. If there's a genuine reason for preventing something then it's time the real reason was given."
Around 300 complaints have been made to the panel about misuse of health and safety laws.
HSE chairwoman Judith Hackitt said: "I would urge all bosses to familiarise themselves with health and safety law and properly educate their staff. Real health and safety is about protecting people in the workplace from life and health threatening risks - not about refusing to apply suntan lotion, or put sauce on an ice cream.
"Health and safety has become an all too convenient excuse, which means the law is being applied disproportionately or more often than not entirely erroneously. If there's a genuine law or your insurance provider doesn't cover it then own up to the real reason."

The Ten Friendliest Groups Of Car Owners
Not every car community is filled with douchebags. These ten groups of people are as good as auto owners come.
MG Wants To Come Back To The U.S. With Or Without A Roadster
Most people my age remember MG because it's something their parents talked about, not because they've actually had first-hand experience with one of the roadsters that were rather popular up until 1980. The MG name is still kicking around and its Chinese backers want so badly to return to the U.S. Just not necessarily…
Today in sad press release sentences: "Sheffield is to become the first city in Britain to have two new MG dealerships."
The MG CS SUV Concept Is A Far Cry From An Old British Roadster
MG, the venerated British brand that gave us little runabouts like the Midget and the MGB, drove itself into the ground a few years ago and it was scooped up by the Chinese companies Nanjing Automobile and SAIC. To that end, SAIC debuted the SUV part of the re-born MG, the CS, at the Shanghai Auto Show earlier today.
The Last Cars Of Traditional British Car Companies
The British screwed up their automotive industry like no other. The endless badge-engineering meant that their once great cars become as outdated as the fish and chips kiosk just outside the factories, while the long-lasting strikes made sure that the workers went back to do their shifts with just the right attitude.…
Why Do Car Collectors Drive 1987 Volvo 740 Turbos?
When you have a garage stuffed with a 1946 MG, a 1957 Thunderbird, an XK Jaguar, a C1 Corvette and a Ferrari Dino what would you drive every day? It's clear from this vintage advertisement that Volvo thought the answer to that question was a 1987 740 Turbo.
Two generations of "British Mania"
The ninth installment of Josh Clason's Depth of Speed series introduces us to Roger and Rob Gisseman, two generations of British car lovers.
Postal stamp dreams of vintage cars in the Congo
These stamps of classic cars are from the Congo. The Congo is not the first thing that comes to mind when you think about classic touring and race cars. Mind you, this is the Republic of Congo, not the big crazy Congo of Ali vs. Foreman, the Concorde landing strip in the jungle and the Second Congo War: that's the…
1979 MG Midget and vintage skateboarders create "a moving experience"
What has four wheels and reflexes so quick it almost seems alive? The MG Midget of course. During the model's final year of production British Leyland decided to pair up the still clean cut and color coordinated sport of skateboarding with their not long for the world and mostly outdated MG Midget to create this…

Two Jews Walk Into An MGB Owner's Driveway...
Automobile Magazine columnist Jamie Kitman took Vanity Fair's Brett Berk to look at an MGB. Kitman bought it, Berk wrote about it. The best part? They ditched a Jaguar launch to do it. [Vanity Fair]

Since everyone is posting about having problems with the new rivers I guess I should say I had no problems whatsoever. I delete the entire PDM folder every time I install a new version so that everything is re-compiled.
So did I, so it ain't that.
On the plus said, at least I don't think it's WINE's fault anymore.
Oh, I have forget to tell you guys this again and again, but the "switch to prosperity" national idea lacks a description
Ok, so I was thinking on how to fix the Russian economy, why not set further regional capitals for two or three provinces for the Asian part, so all those soldiers dont bankrupt it?

First uninstall the game completely (backup your save files first of course), then reinstall it normally. Now this is the important part, when the game has installed to program files (or wherever you tell it to) go into the main VIC2 game folder and create a text file and call it userdir, then open the file and put a single full stop (or period) . and save the file. This file will prevent the game from creating the extra folder in My Docs and any of the weirdness that involves. So then just start up the game and it should work normally from one folder.
Then, I'd recommend creating a copy of the entire game folder (just copy and paste) and put it somewhere else on your hard drive and use this copy for installing mods (so you'll have a clean backup version and also because you don't need to use Steam to run the game that way). Then download the PDM/APD files from the forum and simply copy and paste them over the over the (copy) game folder (overwrite all files when it asks you). Then just delete the map cache like normal and create a desktop shortcut to the game's exe file and the game should run properly with the rivers mod and any other map changes that a mod has.
When a new version of PDM is released simply delete your secondary copy of the game and make another fresh one to install the new PDM files into. The only disadvantage with this method is that you can't have multiple mods installed at the same time.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Victoria 2\mod\PDM
i am using windows 7 home edition. i have the steam version of the game AHD. 2.3.1 this is where the mod is installed on my machine, when the launcher comes up the mod section is empty. do i need to install in a different location?
i also tried
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Victoria 2\PDM
but that did not work. and advice would be great. i know i am missing something really obvious.
Hey, I would maybe add a militancy increase for catholic countries that are non-italian that attack italian, IRL, the austrian pops would be fairly upset if the kaiser attacked the pope
I don't think Naselus said anything like that. *I* said Russia probably has issues because it has so many soldier pops-- a country has to pay for its soldier pops even if it doesn't recruit them-- but it doesn't matter where they are. They could be in three times as many regions and it would still cost them the same.
Don't take it personally. I'm not a very patient person, particularly when I have to filter ideas through the knowledge of how much personal time and effort it would take to implement them.I dont know, I blurt out ideas, Rylock already knows that and hates me for it ^-^
Just looking at China and I see that the province Yibin (1585) no longer has a Tibetan core. I think this should be added back since the Tibetans are 25% of the population, that's 178,000 Tibetan POPs, which is about the same amount as in the whole of Tibet-proper. Actually, I already added it back when going through the province files, it'll be in my upload, unless there's some specific reason not to have it.
Also, wasn't there supposed to be Manchu Aristocrats in Peking (1616 - Shuntian), to represent the Ruling Manchu elite? And I think from all that changing around there are still some Manchu Artisan and Farmer POPs that are in Baoding (1612 - Beijing) that are meant to be in the Capital. We really should put some line in those files saying "This is really Peking", etc, because the amount of times I've had to go and check exactly which one is which...
And by the way, if you're looking to break up big regions, some of the states in China have 8, 9 and 10 provinces and enormous populations (I think one has nearly 10 million POPs in it). I know that we changed the Chinese regions for more historical accuracy, but maybe we should reverse that since it's perhaps too easy to take massive chunks out of the country.
It is too easy to take apart China, I took the entire non peking coast and drove half way in, before a stupid war against the Uk that lasted like 10 years and no movment caused me to quit, and dont even get me started on trying to prevent a revolution as qing after you industrialize, there is no way to prevent 90% of your crafties from being unemployed
Purchase of Belize is not work for United States of Central America.
That's pretty much my thoughts on it.
Oh also, I forgot to say that if you want to boost Egypt at the start; give them the "Mandatory Service" mobilization reform, rather then "Four Year Draft".
Another thing, Lan Na is the only country in the world that doesn't have any army at the start (no divisions at all), it should have at least one.

Well egypt is roughly as strong as its going to get, the issue is that the ottomans are historically too strong, and for good reason. They were just starting to adapt the new reforms, the sultan died days before the crisis started, and the army was fairly unorganized. I think maybe the best way to do it would be to remove their ability to build regulars at the start of the game, decrease the size of their armies, and make all units irregulars/mobile art. But that cannot account for the fact that the Sultan was a bigger idiot than the AI, and that is saying something.
FYI, that was 1901, China was less than half of its former size

Competing Consortium Withdraws Restructuring Proposal For CEDC; CEDC Reaffirms Support For RTL Restructuring Proposal
WARSAW, Poland, March 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Central European Distribution Corporation (NASDAQ: CEDC) announced today that it received notice from A1 Investment Company, the SPI Group and Mark Kaufman (the "Consortium") that they are withdrawing their restructuring proposal for CEDC.
The Consortium proposal had been announced as an alternative to a restructuring proposal agreed between CEDC and Roust Trading Ltd. ("RTL"), a significant CEDC debt and equity holder and strategic partner.
CEDC notes the withdrawal of the Consortium proposal and confirms that it has not received any further alternative proposals from third parties. CEDC reaffirms its support of the RTL proposal.
The RTL proposal contemplates the exchange offer, consent solicitation and solicitation of votes for a pre-packaged plan of reorganization (the "Restructuring Transactions") currently being conducted by CEDC.
The Restructuring Transactions currently have the support of a committee of holders of CEDC's outstanding Senior Convertible Notes due 2013 (the "2013 Notes"), who have announced that they, together with RTL, collectively hold approximately 73% of the outstanding principal amount of the 2013 Notes. The Restructuring Transactions also have the full support of a committee of holders of Senior Secured Notes due 2016 issued by a CEDC finance subsidiary (the "2016 Notes"). The advisors to the 2016 Steering Committee have previously informed CEDC that, in the 2016 Steering Committee's view, the Restructuring Transactions supported by the members of the 2016 Steering Committee are also supported by other beneficial holders of the 2016 Notes that, together with the members of the 2016 Steering Committee, hold in excess of 50% of the principal amount of outstanding 2016 Notes. The terms of the Restructuring Transactions are described in the Amended and Restated Offering Memorandum, Consent Solicitation Statement and Disclosure Statement, dated March 8, 2013 (the "Offering Memorandum"), filed as an exhibit to a tender offer statement on Schedule TO-I/A on March 8, 2013, as amended and supplemented by Supplement No. 1 to the Offering Memorandum, dated March 18, 2013 (the "Supplement"), filed as an exhibit to the Form 8-K filed on March 19, 2013. The consent deadline and voting deadline with respect to both the 2013 Notes and the 2016 Notes in the Restructuring Transactions is April 4, 2013. Each holder of 2016 Notes who delivers Consents (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) with respect to its 2016 Notes by 5:00 p.m. on April 3, 2013, and does not validly withdraw such Consents, will receive the Consent Fee (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), assuming all of the conditions to the payment of the Consent Fee are met. CEDC continues to believe that a successful restructuring will improve its financial strength and flexibility and enable it to focus on maximizing the value of its strong brands and market position. The restructuring is expected to have no effect on CEDC's operations in Poland, Russia, Hungary or Ukraine, all of which will continue doing business as usual. Obligations to all employees, vendors, and providers of credit support lines in Poland, Russia, Hungary and Ukraine will be honored in the ordinary course of business without interruption. CEDC believes that its subsidiaries in Poland, Russia, Hungary and Ukraine have sufficient cash and resources on hand to meet all such obligations. None of CEDC, CEDC Finance Corporation International, Inc., or the information and exchange agent makes any recommendation as to whether holders should tender their notes pursuant to the Restructuring Transaction. Each holder must make its own decision as to whether to tender its notes and, if so, the principal amount of the notes to be tendered.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Concierge.com's insider take:
When Richard Meier's cool, white, futuristic "ship" sailed into the heart of El Raval, it regenerated an area best known as the underbelly of Barcelona. Inspired by Le Corbusier, the real art here is the building itself—straight lines and curves juxtaposed against a sapphire sky. A skylight-dotted roof floods the interior with natural light. The permanent collection, made up mainly of works from the second half of the 20th century, gives a good overview of the fundamental principles of contemporary art.

I saved up my money & bought a Winchester 1200, 12 ga. in 1974, I was 15 (my mother was with me). I still have it today, the barrel's been shortened to 20", and it is my HD shotgun. I know it like the back of my hand!
The first one I shot was my Dad's Ithaca 37, in 16-guage. I got it after he died, and won't part with it until I die. The first one I bought is a Browning BPS, in 20-guage. It came with a 28-inch barrel with the Invector interchangeable chokes. I have since bought: barrels in 20, 26, 30, & 32-inch lengths, all with the Invector chokes; and, all the choke tubes. I also have the youth and upland stocks for it. I doubt that I will ever sell it. I am keeping an eye out for the rifled slug barrel, but haven't seen one for sale. I like the bottom ejection of the BPS, and the Ithaca 37.

U.S. Custom officers seize over $3 million in narcotics
ANZALDUAS, TX (KVEO NEWS CENTER 23) — Custom officers seized over $3 million worth of narcotics and arrested a Mexican citizen for allegedly attempting to smuggle the drugs.

Maroon 5 is an American pop rock band that originated in Los Angeles, California. The group was formed in 1994 as Kara's Flowers while its members were still in high school and originally consisted of Adam Levine (lead vocals, guitar), Jesse Carmichael (guitar, backing vocals) Mickey Madden (bass guitar) and Ryan Dusick (drums). Kara's Flowers signed to Reprise Records and released an album, The Fourth World, in 1997. After a tepid response to the album, the band parted ways with the record label and the members attended college. Dusick and Madden stayed local at UCLA, while Levine and Carmichael relocated to the east coast to attend Five Towns College. While Levine and Carmichael were in New York, they began to take notice of the urban music surrounding them and later let the style influence the songs they wrote.

Montrose V Stirling at Links Park Stadium : Match Preview
Montrose V Stirling - view commentary, squad, and statistics of the game live.
McIntosh may make Montrose return
Montrose expect to have Ricky McIntosh available after a hamstring problem when they look to secure a first win of the season against visitors Stirling Albion.
However, Craig Bell and Luke Johnston are both injury doubts with Links Park manager Stuart Garden hoping to bolster his squad with the loan signing of two youngsters from Premiership clubs before kick-off.
Garden said: "We played well at Elgin last week to get a win and we will look to build on that. Our two games with Stirling this season have been very close affairs but they have got the better of us.
"We will look to reverse that in this fixture."
Stirling miss the injured Kieran McAnespie (hamstring) and Chris Smith (knee) as they look for a third win of the season over Montrose.
Ross Forsyth is available after suspension and manager Greig McDonald is hopeful of adding one new face before the game on Saturday.
McDonald said: "Our second half performance against Annan last weekend when we battled back for a deserved point was the best we have played in a while. However, there is more to come from my players.
"Montrose had a good result against Elgin last weekend and will see this as a chance to close a gap in the play-off race so we need to keep our standards high."

Three original books in "relief etching" by William Blake, who composed the texts, designed the texts and decorations, and printed the pages: America: A Prophecy (1793 [1794?]), Europe: A Prophecy (1794), and Milton (1804 [i.e. 1808?]).
Blake's two "prophetic" books arrived in NYPL's Berg Collection in 1941, as part of the Owen D. Young Collection, one of the two most extensive collections of English and American literary manuscripts and printed books formed during the first half of the twentieth century. (The other great collection belonged to W. T. H. Howe, which Albert Berg had bought some months earlier.)
Additional books related prints by Blake in the Berg Collection are: The Book of Thel (1789 [1790?]); Songs of Innocence (1789 [1790?]); Visions of the Daughters of Albion (1793 [1794?]); proof impressions for Illustrations of the Book of Job (1825); seven plates for Illustrations of Dante [n.d.]. Except for the Job, which was part of the original Berg brothers' collection, all of these books had belonged to Young. In addition, the Print Collection of the Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Division of Art, Prints and Photographs, and The Carl H. Pforzheimer Collection of Shelley and His Circle both hold other copies of some of these works.
Blake's usual categorization as a Romantic poet is not unwarranted. Certainly, he shared with other Romantics the belief that nature embodied truths more profound than the rational mind could apprehend, and that humanity's willful dissociation of itself from nature was the cause of most of the world's ills. But Blake embraced an exaltedly visionary view of the world and a mythic form of expression unique to himself. He also sought a means of rendering his works in a print form that might rival the dynamic, organic interplay of text, decoration, and illustration found in the best medieval illuminated manuscripts.
The technique Blake discovered that enabled him to achieve this end is usually called "relief etching" to distinguish it from intaglio etching, in which the lines to be printed are lightly incised into a copper plate with an etching needle and are deepened and thickened when the plate is dipped in acid. Blake, however, created his plates by first painting his texts and the lineaments of his illustrations and decorations upon copper sheets with a very fine brush dipped in a clear acid-resist liquid. (He said that the technique had come to him in a dream.) After painting the text and decoration, he immersed the plates in acid, which ate away their unpainted (that is, unprotected) areas. To print, he then inked the resulting relief portions of the plate (i.e., the lines of text, illustrative figures, and decorative lines), placed a sheet of paper upon the plate, and pressed it firmly (using the back of a spoon), thereby transferring the ink from the plate's text and decorative elements onto the paper. In most of his books, all of the pages in each of the copies printed would then be water colored, usually in the identical color schemes, but embodying significant tonal differences.
Blake also worked for other printers, and in such cases, he would engrave or etch the plates in the conventional manner (i.e., incising lines into the plate with a burin and etching needle). In this manner, he executed, for example, the illustrations for Job and Dante's Comedy.

Feb 10th, 2006, 11:55 PM
That dress isn't getting many compiments. :lol:

Feb 11th, 2006, 08:48 AM
Venus' shot appears to be more candid than the others,...Everyone else looks as if they've dressed up for an event, posing for the camera. While Venus looks likes she's hanging out or shopping, talking to a friend on a cell phone...

update [] GRECO 67 - Draft Agenda Council of Europe's Anti-corruption group invites Lithuania to focus on a proper enforcement of the rules on corruption prevention among members of parliament, judges and prosecutors [Strasbourg, 11/02/2015] In a
report published today, the Council of Europe Anti-Corruption Group
(GRECO) acknowledges the comprehensive legal and institutional framework
developed by Lithuania to prevent and fight corruption among members of
parliament, judges and prosecutors. It also stresses that the
authorities now need to shift their focus to ensuring that the legal
norms are well understood and properly enforced. (more) Germany needs to improve tools for preventing corruption, according to Council of Europe Anti-corruption Group [Strasbourg, 28/01/2015] Although the overall assessment of the
German system for ensuring integrity and preventing corruption and
misconduct among members of parliament, judges and prosecutors is
positive, a
report published today by the Council of Europe's Group of
States against Corruption (GRECO) raises some problems in this regard in
Germany. (more ...) |

By DNA cloning, we have identified the BSRP (brain-specific receptor-like proteins) family of three members in mammalian genomes. BSRPs were predominantly expressed in the soma and dendrites of neurons and localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Expression levels of BSRPs seemed to fluctuate greatly during postnatal cerebellar maturation. Triple-knockout mice lacking BSRP members exhibited motor discoordination, and Purkinje cells (PCs) were often innervated by multiple climbing fibers with different neuronal origins in the mutant cerebellum. Moreover, the phosphorylation levels of protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha) were significantly downregulated in the mutant cerebellum. Because cerebellar maturation and plasticity require metabotropic glutamate receptor signaling and resulting PKC activation, BSRPs are likely involved in ER functions supporting PKCalpha activation in PCs.

In the six months before I took office, we lost nearly 4 million jobs.
And we lost another 4 million before our policies were in full effect. Those are the facts. But so are these. In the last 22 months, businesses have created more than 3 million jobs. Last year, they created the most jobs since 2005. American manufacturers are hiring again, creating jobs for the first time since the late 1990s. Together, weve agreed to cut the deficit by more than $2 trillion. And weve put in place new rules to hold Wall Street accountable, so a crisis like this never happens again. The state of our union is getting stronger, and weve come too far to turn back now. As long as Im president, I will work with anyone in this chamber to build on this momentum. But I intend to fight obstruction with action, and I will oppose any effort to return to the very same policies that brought on this economic crisis in the first place. |

Everyone elected to office of the president since reagan has created more jobs than baby Bush. After Bush entered office we wnt into a recession, had p/11, had the cost of two tbush 2 tax cuts, 2 wars, the medicare part D no bid contract, the no bid on 2 wars, lost track of fraud and money in Iraq and Afghanistan, drove up the debt under bush by trillions and unknown trillions off the budget books. And they still idolize bush, As seen on the nes=ws Bush could not even find the door leading out of the room. Remeber that scene. He forgot about bin Ladin. did not think of him much. Has quite a historicla list of forgoet-me-nots. But they mention him not on the list of mentionables on the political republicans scenes. Wonder why the republicans running for president do not mention him as their shining star?

And do not forget the Bush slogan of while running as president: compassionate conservativitisam. Was their any compassion in his politicing ways?

Re-elect President Ass Kisser Obama! It seems that some copies of the Koran were burnt on an American base in Afganistan and the Afgans had a riot over it and two American soldiers were killed because of it. Only 1 in 9 Afgans read and write the language they speak. The Koran like any other book is nothing more then ink and paper. The Muslims may believe the words contained in it are sacred just as we do the Bible but the ink and paper of the book are not. Many people like myself have bibles with personal notes etc wrote in them and my Bible is mine and personal. I would have it burned before I would want any other person to get their hands on it. Those notes are between me and my Lord. Two American soldiers that are over there protecting the Afghans are killed because of the burning of the Koran and other stuff on a military base. President Muslim Kiss your Ass Obama apologizes to the Afghans. What the hell is the matter with this President? I have a copy of the Koran in my library that I will pour hog fat on, piss on, pour gasoline on, set on fire and dance around it. I would suggest anyone with a copy of the Koran do the same. It's time for us to get out of that stupid country and vote Obama out of office. |

Did you notice who Obama threatened Well, I have to forward this. It came from a most unusual source. I knew WHO he threatened about the debt ceiling but it didn't occur to me all of the people that he left out of his threats. This is an interesting email. Please read past the first paragraph. It's incredible that 42% of Americans think that this unqualified, incompetent, dishonorable, ego-driven fraud is doing a good job. Take a moment. Admit it to yourself. You know who his supporters are. They are the people that YOU support. From now thru November 2012 this should be required weekly or at least monthly reading BY ALL WHO VOTE!!! Did you notice who Obama threatened when he wasn't getting his way on raising the debt ceiling? He threatened to not pay: - Social Security Retirees, Military Retirees, Social Security disability and Federal Retirees.- - Now..let this sink in really good - - He did not threaten to stop payments to illegal aliens - He did not threatened to take frivolous benefits such as Internet access away from violent inmates - He did not offer to fire some of the thousands of unnecessary federal employees that he hired - He did not offer to cut down on his or his wife's frivolous gallivanting around - He did not threaten to not pay the senators and representatives or any of their staff - He did not threaten to take benefits away from welfare recipients - He did not threaten the food stamp programs - He did not threaten to not pay foreign aid - He did not threaten to cut back on anything that involves his base voters - The list could go on and on. He is in full political re-election mode! Why are we allowing this person to destroy this wonderful country with his selfishness and his lies? His type of change is killing our country. He needs to be stopped and only our votes can stop him. Do not forget about his tactics when it's election time. Vote Obama out of the Presidency in 2012. LET'S MAKE 2012 - THE END OF AN ERROR! We the people are coming |

1) You forgot the subject and object of the independent clause.
2) The dependent clause is not a noun clause. Doesn't it describe Ralph?
1) Ralph,who is a student. Is the independent
2)Adveb clause
Joe, you're not thinking!
An independent clause must be able to be a complete sentence on its own (or it can be included in a compound or complex sentence). Is "Ralph, who is a student" able to be a complete sentence on its own?
What do adverbs modify?
What do adjectives modify?
What is that dependent clause modifying??
2) is an adjective clause. It describe a word or a group of words in another clause.
1) who is a student,also has a part-time job. Is the independent.
hope is right.
Ralph,who is a student,also has a part-time job.
1)What is the independent clause in this sentence?
also has a part-time
2)What kind of dependent clause is( who is a student) in this sentence? Is it a noun, adjective,or adverb clause?
-a noun
1) who is a student,also has a part-time job. Is the independent.
hope is right.
2) is an adjective clause.
1) = incorrect
2) = correct
Ralph,also has a part time job is the independent

continued Nightingale said that three negative results are required to declare the building to be asbestos-free. Only one positive result is required to confirm the presence of asbestos. Consequently it's costlier to determine that the property is asbestos-free, she said, even though that's the more desirable result in the long run.
Town resident Bob Nessle questioned the wisdom of spending grant money to conduct asbestos testing when it seemed obvious that the building should be torn down. He reminded the board that even though it was grant money, whether it be state or federal, ultimately the money was taxpayer money and should be used judiciously.
Town Councilman Eugene Arsenault clarified the intent of the testing.
"Am I correct in that we're trying to get our arms around the condition of the building?" Arsenault said, so as to determine what to do, whether it be tear it down or restore it?
"That's correct," Nightingale said.
If testing reveals the presence of asbestos, it will need to be removed before the building can be either restored or demolished.
Nightingale said engineers have estimated a cost of about $500 for the testing, a sum that will be reimbursed through the grant. The amount represents the cost of the testing materials. The technical labor to conduct the testing is being donated by the firm Nightingale works for, Hanson VanVleet LLC where Nightingale is a geologist.
The testing will determine whether there is either friable or non-friable asbestos in the building. Nightingale explained that "friable" means the asbestos is in a form that is easily dispersible into the air and therefore easily inhaled and therefore more dangerous. Non-friable means that the asbestos is embedded in material that keeps it from dispersing into the air.
After confirming that there is money available to front the cost of the testing until the grant reimburses the town, Councilman Arnold Stevens put forth a motion to move forward with the testing. The vote to approve the motion was unanimous.
In other news, Town Secretary Cherie Ferguson announced that a Red Cross Blood Drive will be held at Tannery Pond Community from noon until 5 p.m. on May 21. Those wishing to donate blood should call 1-800-RedCross to schedule an appointment. All those donating will be eligible to enter a raffle for a $50 Lowe's gift card.
The Johnsburg Town Board will meet next in regular session on June 5 at 7 p.m. at the Wevertown Community Center.

With regard to the above-mentioned issues, the Company has failed to explain to shareholders, including in its 'Midterm Policy on Return to Shareholders', a 'justifiable amount' or 'return parameters' for the excess capital it may use for future acquisitions of assets, including R&D pipeline products. We believe that any such acquisitions, if economically justified, could be financed through capital markets at such time the potential acquisitions arise. Maintaining significant excess Financial Assets to provide for potential future acquisitions is not in the interest of shareholders.
The proposals, if approved, would result in a return to shareholders of approximately 74.7 billion yen, which would reduce the Company's total Financial Assets to approximately 276 billion yen.
Following the execution of the proposed dividend and share buybacks, approximately 68% of the Company's total assets would still consist of Financial Assets, a ratio that is more than sufficient to support its operations while still allowing for it to pursue growth opportunities.

George Navadel has signed a baseball scholarship to pitch at New Mexico Military Institute. The Franklin senior is already well traveled so the location did not matter as much as the opportunity to continue playing baseball.

As if I didn't already spend enough time on the Internet, I have fallen prey to another site and have added Pinterest.com to my daily rounds. I had heard about the site months ago but dismissed it. Then, I dipped in for a few minutes and was hooked, line and sinker.
At Pinterest, users create online bulletin boards categorized by topics such as gardening, art and travel. As a virtual hunter and gatherer, you spot something on the Internet you'd like to share, "pin" it to one of your bulletin boards, and then the related photograph and site link appear on the Pinterest home page for others to see. If another user re-pins your image, you receive an email notification signed, "Happy pinning."
The website is relatively new, but it has already amassed more than ten million registered users and clocks more than 1,000 hits every 60 seconds. Businesses have taken notice and are quickly learning to use Pinterest to their benefit.
Commerce aside, the site appears to be about self-expression more so than shopping, despite the many photographs of clothing and home décor. Someone may post a dozen images of boots they long for, but they're likely window-shopping. And they may collect an album's worth of photos of their dream bathroom, but they really are just dreaming.
I'd love to vacation in Italy, their post suggests, or I wish I could spend winters in Fiji, says the photograph of the sunlit beach. But they don't spend winters in Fiji. They spend winters in Ohio, and they're taking imaginary shelter from the wind and oppressive cloud cover.
They may post a photograph of an otherworldly landscape in China where they have no intention of going, but isn't it fascinating? Take a look at this hairstyle or this wedding dress or this idea for a children's party. What do you think of this upholstered chair or this chocolate cake, the best ever?
Lest you become discouraged by the seeming shallowness of all of these pinners, they are also spreading news about health, family and global issues. They are sharing tips about child development, discussing history and science and posting images of art from around the world. They are sharing recipes for all levels of culinary skill and craft projects that display great creativity and resourcefulness.
Already, I am determined to learn to transfer old family photographs to stretched canvas, and my next dinner party may well include a recipe for roasted peanut soup. I have learned how to make tea from apple peels, that the deepest point in the Atlantic Ocean is 27,560 feet; and that the number of wild Arabian Oryx, once labeled extinct, is now up to 1,000.
All of this information is readily available elsewhere, but what draws me to Pinterest is that each tidbit has been culled by an individual who has found it worthy of personal attention. The site is all about self-expression, meeting our need for space to dream, to educate and to display beauty—with few exceptions, the posted images are lovely and inviting.
I have wondered how people expressed themselves before the advent of the Internet and social networking sites like Pinterest. Some would say our ancestors were not so self-absorbed, but I tend to believe human nature doesn't change much era to era. It's the tools we have at our disposal that change, and they haven't made us narcissistic; they've just broadened our audience.
Decades ago, my grandmother wrote her memoirs out by hand as a form of self-expression, describing food, clothing, childhood pets and family history; and she gave her children the notebooks that told her life story. When you look at the bulletin boards people create on Pinterest and evaluate them as a whole, you can see they form a kind of memoir, with images people have chosen to represent their lives and to tell their stories.
My grandmother's generation likely would have made full use of such a resource and would have filled their bulletin boards with loads of photographs of the things they most enjoyed in life. Now, outside the confines of a spiral-bound, their descendants can say, "This is me and my life as told through images of what I find beautiful and interesting and of significant value. This is my story." Happy pinning.
