Chairman: Good afternoon. We have one little
bit of housekeeping before we begin. Members declaring an interest?
Clive Efford: Member of the Transport and General
Workers' Union.
Chairman: Gwyneth Dunwoody, Rail, Maritime Transport
Mrs Ellman: Louise Ellman, member of the Transport
and General Workers' Union.
1. Mr McMillan, thank you very much for coming
and bringing your colleagues with you. May I ask you firstly to
identify all of your colleagues for the record?
(Mr McMillan) I am David McMillan, Director of Transport
Strategy and Delivery in the Department for Transport.
(Ms Bowdler) I am Caroline Bowdler, the Regional Director
of the Government Office for the East of England.
(Mr Mills) I am Philip Mills from the Multi-Modal
Studies Unit in the Department for Transport.
2. Did you wish to make any particular comments
or are you prepared to go straight to questions?
(Mr McMillan) Ready to take questions.
3. The Strategic Rail Authority (SRA) said "...
the studies are not a good starting point for the planning and
development of the rail network". If they are not a good
basis for planning railway investment are they really multi-modal?
(Mr McMillan) We need to go back to why
the multi-modal studies (MMSs) were set up in the first place.
They were driven originally by problems which were being experienced
on the strategic road network. When ministers decided that they
wanted to do things in a different way, the idea was to set up
multi-modal studies which would look at the problems which were
being experienced on the strategic road network and to evaluate
whether the road schemes which were being proposed were the right
thing to do, or whether there were other ways to tackle the problems
which had been experienced. What we have set up there is the process
whereby on a careful system of evaluation and analysis against
some criteria which were set up by the department in guidance
to the study teams they could look at other options for dealing
with the problems which were there.
4. Wait a minute. You are not telling us that
rail was tacked on as an afterthought, are you?
(Mr McMillan) No, I am not saying that. I am saying
that the studies were set up to look at the problems which were
being faced and find the best way of dealing with those problems.
5. But are you saying mainly starting from the
perspective of roads?
(Mr McMillan) What we asked the study teams to do
was to look at the problems which were being experienced from
a local perspective on the strategic road network. They were asked
to see whether there were other means of addressing the problems,
other than providing roads and indeed to see whether roads would
be a last resort way of dealing with the issues. There was no
presumption that there would not be road solutions emerging from
the multi-modal studies; by the same token we wanted to be sure
that public transport solutions, rail solutions, so-called soft
measures could make a contribution.
6. Why were these particular multi-modal studies
chosen? Presumably you were spoilt for choice.
(Mr McMillan) When the process was set up it was a
matter of taking the key areas of difficulty on the network, the
key transport problems which were out there and dealing with those
first. If you look at the map of multi-modal studies, it is a
fairly good impression of where the problems which were being
experienced on the network were at the time and that would seem
a sensible place to start.
7. You did tell us many of the rail recommendations
have not been looked at in detail and ". . . when they are,
some will be shown not to be justified". You have spent £32
million on these studies.
(Mr McMillan) What the studies are producing is a
series of strategies for each of the areas in question. They are
producing strategies and they are producing schemes within those
strategies; some of them would be road schemes and public transport
ideas, some would be rail suggestions. All of these things are
by and large described at a strategic level.
8. Wait, I am not very bright, you will have
to be kind to me: ". . . described at a strategic level"?
(Mr McMillan) They are schemes which in the opinion
of the consultants and of the planning bodies who look at these
things later on stack up and make sense in terms of a broad way
of addressing a problem. They may well say that they think a road
between A and B is a good way of dealing with a problem, but that
is not a detailed assessment of exactly how the road would be
built, exactly to what standard it would be built and so on. Before
an absolute commitment would be given to any particular part of
the strategy, that part would need to be subject to detailed assessment
and detailed review. That is when it would enter, to take the
case of a road scheme, the Highways Agency's targeted programme
of improvements or be included in the Strategic Rail Authority's
strategic plan. What they are producing at this stage are strategic
ideas, quite carefully costed ideas but strategic ideas, broad
brush ideas as to how the problem should be tackled.
9. This is an important point. They may be producing
broad-brush ideas but there seems no prospect of them being included
in the Strategic Rail Authority's strategic plan, if only because
there are already within that plan as many projects as can be
contained within the ten-year plan budget, even assuming that
the £30-something billion of private investment which needs
to be achieved to make the plan can be found. You have projects
which have been excluded from the SRA strategic plan, like the
modernisation of the Great Western main line and then you get
to the multi-modal studies. So any rational outside observer would
surely draw the conclusion that the road elements of the multi-modal
studies have a chance of being built because there is highways
budget available, but that the rail projects have no chance whatsoever
of being built within the next decade because there is no budget
for them. Does that not completely undermine the credibility of
the documents you are producing?
(Mr McMillan) The documents are being produced by
the multi-modal studies teams and then going to ministers for
consideration and perhaps decision. You need to look at a number
of factors. In the first place, it is certainly the case that
there is within the ten-year plan an allocation of funding for
a roads programme and that it is to be expected that if ministers
agree with some of the recommendations which are flowing from
the multi-modal studies review then the roads which are agreed
as being delivered there will find funding within the ten-year
plan. That is true. The Strategic Rail Authority has a strategic
plan which is also in operation and on the way to being delivered.
The strategic plan which the Strategic Rail Authority has is very
substantially committed, as you say.
10. It is totally committed.
(Mr McMillan) The SRA will speak for themselves later
on. That is not to say that there is nothing which can be done
about the recommendations flowing from the rail schemes. There
are several ideas in the multi-modal studies which the SRA will
be able to take forward through the rail partnership fund or whatever.
You also need to look at the timetable in relation to the multi-modal
studies. The ten-year plan for transport is, as you would expect,
a ten-year plan which extends for another nine years or so from
now. What the multi-modal studies have been asked to do is to
look at a longer time frame which varies but extends either to
2021 or 2031. It is certainly possible that as time goes by, as
the ten-year plan is reviewed and refreshed and rolled forward
and as the Strategic Rail Authority reviews its plan and rolls
that forward, the funding would become available for some of the
rail ideas which are in the multi-modal study recommendations,
provided that ministers endorse them and provided that the delivery
agent in that case, which is the SRA, believes that they stack
up and offer value for money.
11. Nonetheless by the sound of it you are not
disagreeing with the basic premise which is that there are studies
reporting now which are making recommendations. Those elements
of the recommendations which relate to roads can and may very
well become a reality within the framework of the current ten-year
plan, whereas those which relate to rail are extremely unlikely
to become a reality during the framework of the current ten-year
(Mr McMillan) Recommendations are coming out now which
relate to road construction, recommendations which relate to elements
of a transport plan which might be funded through the local transport
plan settlement and it is possible to see the two avenues of funding
for both of those sets of recommendations. In the case of the
rail recommendation, I agree that there is more of a challenge
to see how these things will be funded and in those cases it is
very likely that the funding will come later on in the period
the MMSs have been looking at.
12. Is there enough money in the system to fund
any of the initiatives which come from these studies?
(Mr McMillan) Funding is allocated through the ten-year
plan which will provide a substantial amount of funding for road
schemes if they are endorsed. There is funding through the way
in which the local transport plans are set up to deal with recommendations
for public transport, soft measures and the like and the Strategic
Rail Authority has its own stream of funding which is delivering
projects which will be of interest to multi-modal study areas
and which later on may be refreshed and will then provide for
funding later on on the rail side.
13. Is there any kind of co-ordination between
these different budgets? You are giving the impression that there
are separate plans with budget heads, then there are multi-modal
studies which are supposed to bring those together but in budget
terms will not.
(Mr McMillan) It is probably true to say that money
is earmarked on a modal basis but that is not to say that there
cannot be co-ordination and collaboration about the way in which
money is spent going forward. What the studies have produced are
broad based approaches to dealing with problems in each area.
They come forward as a package of measures. Some elements of the
package have to hang together, others are valid in their own right
and independent. When the package is endorsed or otherwise by
ministers, having had advice from the various delivery agents,
in each of these areas an implementation team will be set up and
the role of the implementation team is to make sure that the coherence
of the package of the measures, be that measures relating to road,
be that measures relating to public transport or whatever, is
maintained through the process of implementation for the period
of implementation.
14. If the road schemes go ahead before public
transport improvements, is that not going to have an impact on
predicted congestion levels?
(Mr McMillan) Talking in a general way is quite difficult.
What we would need to do is look at each of the packages which
are proposed and each of the road schemes and the accompanying
measures which go along with it or which stand in their own right.
If you take one example, the Cambridge example, there is a proposition
there for a road scheme and a proposition for an accompanying
guided bus scheme. In that case you would want to look very carefully
at the complementarity between those two schemes and make sure
that the implementation of one either went in hand with the other
or was in some way tied with it. In other cases there may be a
proposition for a public transport scheme which stands quite independent
of an element of the package.
(Ms Bowdler) The Cambridge to Huntingdon multi-modal
study recommended improvements to the trunk road and a complementary
guided bus system. The recommendations actually assumed a different
standard for the trunk road because the bus system would be in
place to take a substantial amount of the traffic and this is
a really multi-modal approach and it was linked also with demand
management measures within Cambridge which the local county council,
the transport authority, will be responsible for implementing.
What we have done is set up an implementation group which the
Government Office organises and supports to make sure that the
Highways Agency and the county council are working closely together.
We are reporting back to the Department for Transport and the
Highways Agency on progress and we are clear that this is the
right sort of process to try to get these things working in tandem.
15. What role is the department taking in ensuring
that budget heads are ready to meet the needs which come out of
these studies?
(Mr McMillan) One of the key issues which ministers
will have to have in mind when they endorse the recommendations
flowing from the studies is the affordability of the plans which
are proposed and the funding possibilities for the plans which
are proposed. This may go in a couple of stages. On the first
examination of the material flowing from the studies, ministers
will say that they are minded to support these schemes provided
that delivery agents, once they have done the detailed work on
them, agree that they continue to have value for money and can
still be delivered. At that stage they will come back for final
endorsement. Yes, one of the key things we shall have to put together
in recommendations to ministers about these studies is whether
they are affordable, whether they are deliverable.
16. What about road user charging? Do you not
think it would be better if the department had been clearer on
the government's view?
(Mr McMillan) When the studies were set up, the department
made clear to the people managing the studies that there was no
presumption that there would be road user charging in the future
on the inter-urban network, but it asked the study teams to look
at the possibility of introducing that and delivering it. Later,
in May of this year, some further guidance was given to the study
teams about how they should interpret this and what the department's
position was. Fundamentally what the department said was that
there was no certainty that there would be road user charging
on the inter-urban network, but that they would, in reviewing
the ten-year plan, consider anything which flowed out from the
studies about the future of charging in that way. We would take
that into account going forward.
17. There does not seem to be any consistency
in the views adopted in the different studies. Is that of concern
to you?
(Mr Mills) Each study was asked to consider a wide
range of measures to address the transport problems which they
identified in their study areas, one of which was road user charging.
The department's guidance set out clearly that inter-urban road
user charging, although government currently has no plans to implement
such a policy, was a measure which the study should examine as
a potential to support government policies in the longer term.
Each study has done that and the fact that they have come up with
different conclusions is a reflection of the fact that they have
found a different potential for road user charging in the different
areas. The problems are not all identical and it is not surprising
that they have come up with somewhat different conclusions. Some
studies actually found that they do not recommend any requirement
for inter-urban road user charging; others have come up with recommendations
for its implementation, either in the longer term, maybe post
2020, or somewhat earlier.
18. How important is freight transport in multi-modal
(Mr McMillan) It varies a good deal as between the
study and the type of study which you are dealing with. On those
studies which are dealing with inter-urban movements, clearly
freight can be very important. On some of the more urban routes,
that would be different. It is a key issue on the M25 study for
example. It is obviously very important and needs to be taken
fully into consideration. The way of dealing with freight movements
could be very different from the ways of dealing with other issues.
19. Do you really feel it was simply that they
looked at all of this and they came up with different answers,
not because they were misinterpreting what the department had
said, but because they felt they were different? How can there
be a different approach to inter-urban charging? That is not dependent
on which area they are in: there is a theory that you have inter-urban
charging or there is a theory that you do not have it. There is
not a lot in between, is there?
(Mr McMillan) One of the key benefits which has flown
from this multi-modal study process has been that people in the
local area and the consultants needing studies have indulged in,
have gone in for a great deal of quite detailed analytical work
about what the traffic flows are in a particular area, what the
origin and destination of traffic is, what the freight movements
are and so on. They have now a wealth of information which was
not previously available at that level of the country.

Pacific: Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, San Jose, Phoenix, Anaheim, Los Angeles
Midwest: Nashville, Chicago, St. Louis, Minnesota, Dallas, Colorado, Winnipeg, Columbus Atlantic: Washington, Tampa, Florida, Carolina, New York Islanders, New York Rangers, New Jersey
Northeast: Toronto, Buffalo, Ottawa, Montreal, Detroit, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh.
This creates two 15-team conferences. However, there is the possibility that Philadelphia and Pittsburgh go to different divisions, which would involve 14 teams in one conference and 16 in the other. In that scenario, Columbus would also go east along with Detroit and join the Northeast, pushing Philadelphia into the Atlantic and splitting up the two Pennsylvania rivals.
Of course, Phoenix is the wild card. Who can predict where it will be next year?

Don't go to Brussels, go to Brugge! Seriously.

Thank you, @joannyc. I've heard wonderful things about Brugge! Can you please provide best sites to see? Brussels is a must stop, at least for an afternoon of beer. Is it not worth more than a day? Would it be possible to visit both, Brugge and Brussels?

I really like the Het Anker brewery (brewers of Gouden Carolus) in Mechelen (half an hour from Brussels; Antwerp is 20 minutes further, so you could tour around Antwerp for a bit and hit Mechelen on the way back).
I've never done the Het Anker tour, but even just hitting the tasting room is really worth it- - they tend to have five or six of their beers on tap. The brewery is at the far end of the town center from the train station, but Mechelen is very pleasant town with interesting sights, a river walk, nice restaurants with reasonable prices on the central square, and hardly any tourists.
Brugge has a few nice beer pubs; the only brewery in town is De Halve Maan - - it's a very pretty tour, but their beer is not exciting. Brugge does have a few nice beer pubs.

We gave ourselves the mission of finding the "best" chocolate in Brussels a number of years ago. Our verdict? Pierre Marcollini. But the taste tests are the most fun.
Take a look at a guidebook for Brussels and chose the places that interest you most. We spent a week there and didn't run out of things to do. We did a day trip to Brugge, which I'm glad we did, but I didn't find it as compelling as most people here apparently do.

Hi mwal,
Brussels is ok for 1/2 - 1 day. I spent 2 nights there and wished I had added that time to Bruges. There are breweries all over Belgium if that is your sole purpose for Brussels.
I spent 4 nights in Bruges and could have spent longer. This was my itinerary (taken from various sources and forum postings):
* 4 remaining windmills outside walls
* 4 remaining Medieval City Gates: Gentpoort, Kruisport, Ezelpoort, and Smedepoort -Beginning of 15th Century
* Canal Cruise on De Lamme Goedzaak - Sails between Bruges and Damme - 45 minutes
* Cathedral - Basilica of the Holy Blood (Heilig Bloedbasilick) Blood of Jesus. The chapel of the Holy Blood is actually a double chapel which can be visited on the 'Burg' square in Bruges. One can enter the church on the first floor where the Holy Blood is kept via the 'Steeghere' which is a beautifully decorated façade behind which a staircase leads to the first floor. The relic is shown to the public every Friday. Reliquary can be seen in the Museum of the Holy Blood next door to the Holy Blood Chapel.
* Town Hall and Burg Square, Office of the Town Clerks (Oude Griffie), and justice buildings Go inside! One of the most beautiful buildings of Bruges can be seen here : the gothic town hall from 1376 is one of most beautiful bldgs in Belgium
* Huidenvettersplein has some of the best restaurants in the city and the VIEW over the waters of the Burgundian Cross is STUNNING
* Some old patrician houses still have window panes of Venetian glass - House # 7 on Dijiver is worth noting.
* The Groeninge Museum Small museum in both size and collection, quality is fantastic! Collection of Flemish masters. Museum's masterpiece is 'The Madonna with Canon Joris van der Paele', which Van Eyck painted in 1436
'Death of the Holy Virgin' by Hugo van der Goes, and 'The altar of Saint Christopher' by Hans Memling, Located in a former Augustian monestary.
* The Gruuthuse Museum - Furniture, tapestries, silver, etc. of life in the 16th and 17th C Bruges
* Church of Our Lady (Onze Lieve Vrouwekerk)- Mary of Burgundy and Chas the Bold tombs and several Old Master paintings are the highlight. Don't miss Michelangelo's Madonna & Child sculpture (only Michelangelo sculpture to leave Italy during his lifetime. Largest Gothic church in low countries built in 13th C. Served as royal wedding chapels to dukes of Burgundy
* Holy Savior's Cathedral (St. Salvatorskathedraal)- The other major church, also houses Burgundian masterpieces. Gothic choir stalls. Founded in 646.
* Canal Ride/tour - Neat to see town from canal and offers a good overview of the historic center
* De Halve Maan Brewery beer tour and tasting
* Hospital Museum - St. John's Hospital (Memlingmuseum housed the 13th C St. Janshospitaal)
* Great photo op from bridge to left of canal and hospital
* In front of Our Lady's church stands the large complex of the medieval St. John's hospital, one of the oldest still existing hospitals in Europe. In 1978 it lost its function as hospital and harbors now the Memling museum, the hospital museum and the old pharmacy.
* Minnewater - Minnewater and its lovely park are the entrance to the beautiful city of Bruges. The Minnewater is a canalized lake. From the bridge (1740) one can already enjoy a nice panoramic view over the town. Because of the idyllic surroundings it is mostly referred to as 'the lake of Love', the Dutch word 'Minne' meaning 'love'. Gorgeous view!!!
* Beginhof - ( Prinselijk Begijnhof ten Wijnarde) - One of the most enchanting nooks in Bruges: Beguines residence founded in 1245. Just behind the Minnewater lies the Beguinage 'De Wijngaard' (= the Vineyard). It is one of those typical areas in Bruges where one can find more peace and quiet than in the sometimes busy and overcrowded streets of the town center. The Beguinage is a group of houses around a little garden covered with large poplar trees. It was here that during the last seven centuries lived the beguines of Bruges. In 1937 the beguinage became a monastery for the Benedictine sisters who still live here now.
* Kantcentrum (lace center) - you can buy lace and watch the craft being practiced
* Streets and Alleys north of Markt - Spanjardstraat leads to oldest bridge in city, you also see Spaanse Looskai, Oosterlingenplein and the Natiehaus (Nation House of Genoa). Headqtrs of Florentines at corner of Vlamingstraat and Academiestraat (now chic restaurant), Venetian residence down street a bit further. Old Customs House is one of most beautiful and ornately decorated gothic bldgs of Bruges on Academiestraat.
* Chocolate Museum and Frites Museum
* Fish market and craft stalls
* Market square and belfry tower - completely refurbished and is now one of the most attractive parts of the city. The main monument is of course the belfry tower and the cloth hall. On the Northern side of the Market is the Provincial Court.
The belfry tower charms the visitor with the lovely music of a carillion, which consists of 47 bells. 366 steps to top for a beautiful view!
* Good photo op - from the bell tower 366 steps up!!!
* Good photo op - Groenerei canal from far side of bridge looking towards cathedral
* Good photo op - view of canal beside St. Janshopsitaal
* A favorite part of Brugge was around the river and windmills and the church of St Anne's -- a great, classic early 20th century Belgian residential neighborhood
* Jerusalem church has preserved its original style almost completely. The beautiful stained glass windows date from 1482 and 1560. Behind the lower altar is a small space which suggests the tomb of Christ.

Cantillon is fabulous and we always spend an afternoon in Brussels at their tasting room. Seriously amazing...if your husband enjoys their beer I would recommend a stop at Moeder Lambic Fontainas which is a world class beer bar.
I too would highly recommend seeing Brugge. As beer and history lovers it's possibly our favorite city in the world! In addition to all the fabulous things to see and do listed above by joannyc, it had a great beer scene. All right in the heart of the city are watering holes such as T' Brugs Beertje, Café Red Rose, Comptoir de Arts, and Cambrinus. So much to see and do!

Funny how few people say they like Bruxelles.
Seems like there's nothing there.
I live 20 kms from there, used to work in Brussels and am always amazed by it. Brussels is clearly not homogeneous but saying half a day there is enough is non-sense.
Spending 4 days in Brugge is for me also non-sense. Been there 3-4 times, and never slept there, was always fed-up after my visit - nice but ... somehow feels like Disneyland - seems a little bit unreal.
So please Mwal, just open a book about Belgium and make yourself your opinion.
Moeder Lambik is very nice as well as La Becasse, that I find very funny - it is really a hole in the wall, not so easy to find.

July is not the best time for mussels.
Do you have any special interests beyond beer?
Some things to do:
Ride the 94 tram from Place Louise to the tram museum. Take in the museum and go for a walk in the Parc Woluwe across the street. Then take the 39 or 44 tram to Mongtomery, head down to Cinquantenaire and walk through the EU district.
Have hot tea with fresh mint leaves. Delicious -- served at many cafes in Brussels (and almost none here in Basel, )
Spend time wandering in and around the Sablon, visit the Flamant flagship store there.
The Grand'Place, of course! If you want to see the pee-boy, fine. If you skip it, don't worry, you're not really missing anything.
Go to one of the markets, whether it's the antiques/art market on the Sablon (where you can find anything except a bargain), the Chatelain food market ( http://www.smarksthespots.com/chatelain-market-brussels/) or something else
Attend a preview exhibition at the Horta auction house.
Eat some frites from a local stand.
Taste lots of different chocolates. I'm a Neuhaus fan, but it's all good.
There! that should fill up two days. At least

I agree with pariswat:
If you have never been to Brussels then of course you want to see it.
Weisser also has given some good places to see.
1. Yes walk or ride to the Cinquantaire , you really want to see this place.
I am not much into Military Museum but the one here at the Cinguantaire is really something
2. I think Brussels has one of the nicest Old Town Squares in Europe...called Grand Place.
Do a little homework and you can name 90 % of the buidings in the Old Town Square.
3. Yes, walk down to see Mennekin Pis, the little boy peeing.
From the Old Town Square you are only 2 1/2 blocks away.
And on your way ,a block away of the
Museum of Belgium Costume and Lace
4. The stock Exchange and right beside it is St. Nicholas Church ( the church is built at an angle due to a creek that once ran across here.
5 Within about 3 -4 blocks of each other is:
St. Catherine's Church
St. Catherine's Tower.
The Black Tower.
Hotel Metropole ( go inside)
Place de Brouchere
Martyr's Square and Monument.
National Opera House.
and...if you want to see the girl peeing ( you have already seen the boy !!)then a block from the Opera house is Jeanneke Pis.
6. a block from the Grand Place ( Old Town Square) is Galeria Royal Arcade...good inside.
In front of the arcade is a nice Square with a statue of Charles Buis Statue .
7. From here go to the Central Train Station ( 1/2 block away ) and next to the station is the Church of St. Mary Magdelen.....you have to pass by here to go to...
8. The Hill of Arts with a statue of King Albert on a horse facing a statue of his wife Elizabeth.
The views from the Hill of Arts toward the Old Town Hall are terrific.
9. Walking through the Hill of Arts you will pass the whirling Ear Fountain, Musical Instrument Museum and then arrive at the Royal Place Square.
10. You are at the Sablon Area that WeisserTree mentioned.
Places to see here are:
Cathedral of Sts. Michael and Gudula
Maturity Statue
State of Godfrey Bouillon in front of St. Jacque Church at Royal Palace Square.
Museum of Fine Arts..lovely building take some pictures.
keep walking and on the next b lock is the Notre Dame du Sablon.
Across the street is the little Park and lovely Fountain of Egmont and Hoorne.
Have you ever seen that many bronze statues in one places !!
Okay straight down a few feet away is the Great Synagogue of Europe and that Square ahead is the Anglo Belgium War Memorial ,which fronts the huge Justice Palace Building.
11. There is a Comic Museum in Belgium worth seeing , the Belgiums are inot their comic strips.
12. Tomb of unknown soldier
13. Place of Congress
14. Royal Palace ( no the Royal Family does not stay here)
15. Brussels Park across from the Royal Palace.
16. Belgium Federation Building..just walk through the park!
If you want to see the place where the Royal Family lives then go to Royal Castle Laeken and see the area along with many other lovely sites here like:
The Leopold Monument.
Neptune Fountain
Japaneses Tower
Chinese Pagoda.
Brupark that has the Atomiun , which is an atom magnified 165 billion times.
Mini Europe is here also , a place where you will see in miniature size all he famous places ( buildings in Europe)
Also from here you will pass by the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, the huge domed Church that you can see from almost anywhere in Belgium
There is lots to see here and two days will not do it ...
but if your husband wants to drink beer , then he can try the "sample tray" where they bring you five different beers in five different glass styles ....so you just sit on a sidewalk table , people watch and rink away .!!
Waffles, you can get at any places and the ones sold in small street kiosks are great.
There are many fancy waffles but the simple one with sprinkled sugars is one that I like best, because you can eat this and walk at the same time.
Chocolates, you will come across many chocolate shops, some are very elegant and more expensive ,but you be the judge.
I had three meals at the Grand Palace Square as there are some good waffle places and several true Belgium food places to eat here.
You've got two days in Belgium ..stay right where you are in Brussels, see as much as you can.
Leave Bruge for another time.
and if you do plan to go to Bruges on the future, then I recommend seeing the movie Bruges (2008), as it shows lovely architecture and the canal rides.
Bruges is lovely as joannyc outlines.
I can identify with all she has sais and is is right.
What is not to like about Bruges.
I spent 3 full days in Bruges, one day with a private guide to make sure I saw everything I wanted to see and more.
Let your husband drink in peace !!
Oh , if you really want to leave Brussels for an afternoon , then go to Waterloo....but then you will miss a lot of things in Brussels.
You decide, have a good time.

I'm glad to see others posting here who enjoyed Brussels. For some reason, Brussels gets put down here. And I'm glad to see someone else (pariswat) who felt as we did about Brugge.
This is just to say that people are different from each other, like different things. Choose what looks good to you and enjoy!

Another fan of Brussels here. I am glad to see there are some others who don't automatically say "go to Bruges instead." Brussels definitely has much more to see/enjoy than the Grand Place and the Mannekin Pis.
If you like Flemish art, the fine arts museum has a wonderful collection.
The art Nouveau section of the city (Saint Gilles and Ixelles) especially the Horta museum is also a great area to explore.
I wrote a trip report of the time we spent based in Brussels in 2011 with a link at the end to some suggestions about beers to try.

Apology call over MP Naomi Long's Bombardier EU claims
The Enterprise Minister has attacked Alliance MP Naomi Long over her claims that aircraft manufacturer Bombardier would leave Northern Ireland if the UK leaves the European Union.
The DUP's Arlene Foster said Mrs Long should apologise to Bombardier for her comments.
Ms Foster told the Assembly that Bombardier - the biggest employer in east Belfast - was "very concerned" about Ms Long's comments. Ms Long had told an hustings event on Monday night: "If we exit the EU, Bombardier will exit east Belfast."
The DUP is in favour of a renegotiation of European membership, followed by a referendum over whether to leave.
Yesterday, the Canadian-owned aerospace giant said: "Bombardier remains committed to its operations in Northern Ireland." It added that it "will not speculate at this stage on the future of the UK's participation in the EU".
The company emphasised its massive investment in Northern Ireland, including £520m in the production of the CSeries aircraft wings. Mrs Foster told MLAs that she hoped Ms Long "apologises to Bombardier for the embarrassment that she has caused"
"I have been in contact with Bombardier, and it is very concerned about the comments that have been made," she said.
"Bombardier is completely committed to Northern Ireland because of the workforce that there is here, and to suggest that it would act otherwise following a referendum when the company has made it clear that it does not have a particular stance on the UK referendum, if, indeed, it happens after the general election, is irresponsible," she claimed.

How to get Premium Adsense account easily – Premium Adsense Publisher
I am back with another post about the Google Adsense earning. In my last blogs for Top highest Google Adsense earners in the world, I have detailed the estimated earning from their Adsense account. As I said earlier , Google Adsense is their primary source of income and most of these ProBlogger and Webmasters are Premium Adsense Publisher.
Premium Adsense account is a platform that can help you make money using your website and Blog with some more added advantages and features than a normal Google Adsense account. Now the question is why "Adsense Premium". What are its benefits? Who can be a Premium Adsense Publisher? How to be a Premium Adsense account Publisher? Today I am going to explain on how to get Premium Adsense account and what the advantage and features of Premium Adsense account Publisher.
What are the benefits and features of Premium Adsense account?
There are several advantages of having a premium Adsense publisher account. It's a dream come true for all the normal Google Adsense account holders. These features will not only help to increase your Google Adsense earning but also help in many other ways. This also creates a faith among the users for your website, since it's not a normal to get approved for Premium Adsense account by Google. You can enjoy the below listed advantages for Premium Adsense publisher.
1.Negotiate the percentage share from the earning. For example, you can ask for 75-80% of the Cost per click value.
2.Use more than 3 Adsense ads in a single page: For normal Adsense publisher, maximum 3 ads are allowed on a page. Even if you try to place more, it won't work. But for Premium Adsense account publisher, you can place more than 3 ads. This really helps to improve your CTR. Higher CTR means higher earning.
3.Customize Adsense ads in any way you like as suitable to your page: A normal Adsense users has to use the standard format of ads available. While a Premium Adsense account Publisher has the added advantage of designing their own Adsense ad format with custom font sizes, styles, color schemes, custom dimension that mix with your exiting site.
4.Remove the "Ads by Google" label: Premium Adsense Publisher has the option to remove the logo for Ads by Google label from the ad block. This is very useful feature, since it helps to make your ads look like a part of the website only. This helps to increase the CTR by another 200-300%. In the below image you can see how the ad block is adjusted so that it becomes a part of the post.
5. Adsense for Adult/Casino/Gambling pages: Normal Adsense publisher are not allowed to use Adsense code on pages targeting Adults, Casino and Gambling related topics. But with Premium Adsense Account, you have these ads displaying on pages with similar topics.
6.Special Adsense Account manager: Premium Adsense account Publisher gets a separate personnel account manager who helps in optimizing your site, ads placement for better performance, thus helps in maximizing your earning with Adsense.
7.Better Reporting and Security from banning of Adsense account: Premium Adsense Account Publisher always has the option for repeated email warning before they receive the best ever shocking news from Google about Adsense account disability. Also they the better reporting about your earning and better analytic for improvising your earning in much better way.
After reading the above points it becomes very exciting to know how to reach there to get Adsense premium account. I have listed some points which is required for become premium Adsense account publisher.
1. Website with atleast 20 Million page views per month
2. Website with atleast 5 Million search enquiries per month
3. The contents published on your website are unique and 100% original.
4. You website has really very good reputation on the web.
However, I have seen many other websites which have really very good reputation on website but with less web traffic, still they have managed to get the Premium Adsense account. For example, labnol.org of Mr Amit Agarwal has a traffic in range of 5 million per month only, still he is able to get the premium Adsense account. So from this, one point is pretty sure that above parameters are mandatory from Adsense, but if your site is really performing well with fresh, real and unique contents on daily basis, you may get invited by Google Adsense for premium account.
So my suggestion would be keep posting quality and free contents on your website and with neat and clean design. This will help to attract more traffic and to receive Google premium Adsense account invitation as well.
If you feel I have missed out any point, do suggest in the below comment option.

Jesus is ____. How would you finish that sentence?
The subject is there, and so is the verb, but what comes next? Your answer could shed light on the path to becoming who you were made to be.
In these pages, Judah Smith fills out that sentence again and again, each time further revealing the character of Jesus. He writes as if to a friend, illustrating the importance of Christ's message to modern men and women. This is a book for new believers, for lifelong followers, and for the merely curious. Judah Smith shows us the Jesus that somber paintings and hymns fail to capture. With passion, humor, and conviction, he shows that Jesus is life. Jesus is grace. Jesus is your friend. Jesus is a new and better way to be human.

In other news regarding Gemstar-TV Guide, the company said it is going to phase out its electronic book division. The company had been at the forefront of the e-book publishing world, but the technology has not caught on with the public.
Henry Yuen, the former chairman and CEO of Gemstar-TV Guide International, parent company of the Television Games Network (TVG), has been charged in a civil lawsuit by the Securities and Exchange Commission with securities fraud, lying to auditors, and falsifying the company's books.Also charged was Gemstar-TV Guide's former chief financial officer, Elsie Leung. Both were terminated from their positions by the Gemstar board in March and are no longer associated with the company.The SEC alleges Yuen and Leung overstated revenue by $223 million over a 2 1/2-year period from 2000-02. The suit alleges Gemstar reported revenue from expired license agreements along with payments that would only come if the company won specific patent lawsuits against licensees. In several cases, Gemstar lost the patent lawsuits.The SEC alleges Yuen and Leung made millions of dollars in bonuses and stock options as a result of the misstated revenue. The regulatory body seeks a return of that money and is trying to block millions more in payments to Yuen and Leung from termination agreements. It also wants to keep both individuals from serving as officers of a public company and is seeking civil penalties.Current management said in a statement that it "has resolved the past accounting issues, and has taken significant steps towards the resolution of associated regulatory issues."Gemstar-TVG Guide was dealt another patent setback on June 19 when a federal judge upheld an argument from Echostar, owner of the Dish Network, that Gemstar did not fully own a patent on an electronic television program guide. The ruling appears to clear the way for a lawsuit by Echostar alleging antitrust violations against Gemstar.

Response from Anne Marie Walsh, Clinical Quality Facilitator, Quality, Governance and Risk Unit, NHS Grampian 5 years ago
I can see you shared your experience on Patient Opinion some time ago. Thank you for taking the time to post your story. I am sorry to hear of the health issues that you have had since birth. However, congratulations on the baby boy you had a few years ago. I am pleased to hear that his birth persuaded you to have the operation that has turned your life around.
We have only recently started working with Patient Opinion so please accept our apologies in not getting back to you at the time. If you have any further feedback about the experience you described please get in touch.
We are keen to listen to stories of patients and carers and, going forward, we plan to respond quickly to all stories we are alerted to from now on.

Still, the Season 5 finale's numbers are noteworthy. The episode ranks as one of E!'s 10 most-watched telecasts in the last 20 years. It also earned the show's highest rating ever in the women 18-to-34 demographic, making the episode one of E!'s five highest-rated telecasts ever with the demo. To Read More Click Here.

I am a master of multiple monitors. At my last job, I wrangled my way into having a total of four LCDs connected to my workstation, which was pretty fantastic for multitasking. The downside was that such a configuration requires more than one video card (usually). Your run-of-the-mill video card has either one or two… Read More

I will be the first to admit that I'm a crazy cat lady. Between my partner and I, we have three furry feline "kids" – Princess is around ten years old, Sumi is roughly four, and Ninja is the kitten at a year-ish. Yes, I have a kitten named Ninja. And she lives up to… Read More
Like most hardcore computer geeks, I own eleventy thousand computers – including an Acer L310 HTPC I bought on impulse one afternoon on eBay. I love my little HTPC.

I have a lot of computers. Part of the problem with having so many computers is having enough keyboards and mice for all of them – and having small keyboards is a plus when you have so many machines.

Several months ago, Julie sent me a couple leather iPhone cases to review. After playing around with both of them and using them on a daily basis, I decided I really wanted a silicone case, so I bought a couple online. When all was said and done, I'd used four different cases with my iPhone… Read More
A few months ago, Julie mentioned the Livio Pandora Internet Radio in her Spotlight Gadget feature. My boyfriend had recently introduced me to Pandora, and I just knew he and I had to check this little device out. Several weeks later, Livio had shipped me the LV001 Pandora Radio. Right out of the box, this… Read More

I was excited when Julie told her main article contributors that she was sending us HP Mini 1000 netbooks in December, but for an entirely different reason. See, I'd already purchased an Acer Aspire One only a few months earlier, and I was quite interested in seeing how the HP Mini stood up against the… Read More

Despite my extra geekiness and my affinity for electronic gadgets and toys, I only very recently acquired a cell phone with bluetooth.

I'm pretty particular about what I want in a laptop bag. I tend to prefer backpacks because of the more even weight distribution, but I've recently been using messenger bags again.

With the massive influx of digital media in the past decade or so, consumers have become aware of the need for some way to use their media somewhere other than a computer. More specifically, we want to be able to play our music and movies and view our digital pictures from the comfort of the couch, and with the high definition glory of a 72″ plasma television. Apple, of course, released the Apple TV. However, other electronics companies have tried to come up with good home media center solutions that don't require a full computer running Windows XP Media Center Edition, or Windows Vista Premium or Ultimate.
I mentioned to Julie a few weeks ago that I've been looking for the perfect laptop backpack. Since I started my new job, I've been using the Ice Red Drift messenger bag. Even though it's not a laptop bag, it worked pretty well, seeing as my Dell XPS M1330 came with a very nice sleeve. I also really liked this bag. Its one major problem is that it's a messenger bag. I sometimes have to make the mile and half trek home from work by foot (mostly when I lose track of time and miss my last bus home), and a shoulder bag eventually starts to hurt my back and shoulder from the unbalanced weight. I already have a couple laptop backpacks, but neither were exactly what I want.

Episode Summary: Manami and Aoi watch Kio and Eris, both waiting for a good time to make their move. As they are waiting, however, Itokazu and "Beautiful Contact" attack Kio and Eris, and are about to kill both of them when Aoi disobeys orders to wait and saves Kio. She then moves to kill Eris, but Kio begs the Momiji (not knowing it is Aoi) to spare her. She obliges, but as soon as she leaves, Manami appears with CIA back-up, knocks Kio out and captures Eris, but not before Kio sees Manami's watch and knows it is her. Later, Kio confronts Manami and begs her to help him find Eris. Manami contacts Aoi for extra help, and, receiving help from his uncle, Kio blackmails Itokazu and Beautiful Contact into helping as well. Together, they succeed in breaking into the military compound where Eris has been given to the DIA, only to find that she has already broken herself out. The episode ends with the rest of the Catian fleet appearing over the city, announcing their existence and their intent to negotiate a treaty with the Japanese government, as a result of Eris submitting a report about grilled beef.

Don't be discouraged. It will happen eventually. I've never done CIO really I've let some of mine fuss a little when they were older. I've had some that would fuss a little and then go to sleep and they would never really cry or get all upset. And Ihad others that would cry and just get more worked up. If you want to do CIO that's fine but if you really don't want to do it that is fine too. I've had some that I had to hold and work with to get to sleep and I admit I got frustrated at times when I thought of all the other things I could get done if I could just put them down and let them sleep. But I really believe they needed that extra time with me. And they did learn to go to sleep without all the work from me. And I have good sleepers now. they may wake with an occassional bad dream but nothing on a regular basis. And sometimes some of them went through a phase around age 2 or 3 where they would wake and get in our bed but it was a short phase and they went back to sleeping all night in their bed. I'm not trying to talk you out of or into anything, I just want you to know whatever you decide to do is ok. I remember being a new mom and feeling like I was doing things wrong because I wasn't doing things just like some of the books or peds said. I promise it does get better!

Well there are two types of aimbots, external and internal...Externals are slower but safer on detection than the faster internal ones.
Both types read the game to find out the location of the enemy to your position, if they are visible, it calculates the view angles to the enemy and applies it to the game. The main difference is in speed as the external aimbots use alot of CPU power than the internal but is still slower. The other differences is that internal aimbots can take advantage of things like "Auto-Wall", "No-Spread (Non-Host kind)" and many more features as it has direct access to the engine.

Locks are still going to be mediocre at best next patch, no reason to bring a warlock over a shadowpriest. Warlock damage is absolute garbage at the moment outside of Dark Soul and the nerf to blood fear (while needed) almost criples us, while 30 sec cooldown psyfiend still remains in the game. I havn't played on the PTR yet but from what i've heard mage damage got buffed and is already insane on live.. deep + orb needs to be addressed, simply cannot counter it, and a 20% buff to mind blast while warlock damage got nerfed. Time to reroll to an actual caster who can do damage.
but presure at DS+trink is alot higher than sp one , as dots hits really pretty bad ass with those cd's , also dont forget the spamable control ( you can pretty much stop a healer for 7-8sec even with his trinket up or tremor of sham , and the 2nd time you repeat ur chain the presure gonna hit their balls).

Some bosses can't bring themselves to say, "Good job!" Maybe they think they're too busy. Maybe they don't know how. Maybe they just don't believe people need to be told.
For those misguided bosses, we recommend The Carrot Principle by Adrian Gostick and Chester Elton (www.carrots.com). What readers will learn is that, according to 10 years of research by the authors, the companies where thanking people is the norm show bigger returns. The authors also point out that in a recent poll, 79% of employees who had quit their jobs cited the lack of appreciation as the main reason they left.
Ways to nudge your boss toward being more appreciative:
• Gift him a copy of The Carrot Principle, or send him a link to the free monthly "Carrot Culture Newsletter" (www.carrots.com, under "Managers"). Both contain creative and easy-to-use recognition ideas.
• Tell your boss about a coworker's contribution and encourage him or her to recognize it publicly. Some bosses simply don't realize what a difference recognition makes. Say, "She's not the type to brag, but you should know that Jasmine just worked through the weekend to wrap up our big project. I know it would mean a lot to her if you recognized her work."
• Model the behavior you'd like to see from your boss. Thank your co-workers for their help, and tell them what you appreciate about them. One idea: Deliver a short, handwritten thank-you note that specifically spells out what they did right. Example: "You did a great job making sure the XYZ project was spot-on perfect, and finished on time. Way to go!"
Your behavior might just rub off.

About "Pulk" by migueldavid.28
I was just thinking about power when I created Pulk. How to be more powerful than what we know?

While creating this design I came up with a conclusion that this is about the greed for green.

Millions of children across the globe have their rights violated, including being denied the right to quality health care, education and protection from abuse, violence and exploitation, Xinhua quoted the UN agency as saying.
It also said that while adding that only a few were able to seek recourse to improve their situation in a timely, fair and effective way.
"Equitable access to justice means ensuring that all children are served and protected by justice systems,"said Marie-Pierre Poirier, Unicef Regional Director for Central and Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States, in a statement.
She underscored the obstacles that children face in upholding their rights, saying that most countries' social norms made it culturally and socially unacceptable for children to lodge complaints without parental consent, and even the idea of access to justice was inconceivable to children themselves.
Unicef called for the societies to make justice systems child-sensitive, in line with international standards, citing examples of progress including adapting court settings and police stations to make them less intimidating, training police officers, judges and magistrates to communicate with children in a sensitive manner and putting protective measures in place.

Watches: Zenith Academy Georges Favre-Jacot (+live pics)
By Thierry Ané on February 2, 2015
This year, Zenith celebrates an important milestone: it is indeed 150 years since Georges Favre-Jacot founded the Manufacture. Thanks to his visionary ideas and the talent of the successive generations of watchmakers, the brand with the guiding star as logo has set an impressive number of records over the years including 300 patents, 600 movement variations and 2,333 prizes in the field of chronometry!
To pay tribute to this long and eventful History, the Swiss Manufacture has unveiled a 150-piece limited edition model that showcases their immense horological expertise. Simply named the Academy Georges Favre-Jacot, this new 45 mm timepiece with a thickness of 14.35 mm presents a very classic and understated round-shaped 18-karat rose gold case mounted on brown alligator strap with protective rubber lining and secured by a triple folding clasp.
This external simplicity is counter-balanced, however, by the extreme sophistication of its manually-wound El Primero 4810 calibre partially visible from the cut-out dial. This chronometer-certified movement entirely designed, developed and manufactured by the brand incorporates a century-old system used in pocket watches to compensate for the loss of amplitude inevitable when a movement is winding down: a fusée and chain mechanism!
Two years of research and development were necessary to accommodate this device into such a tiny space. In the Academy Georges Favre-Jacot an 18 cm long chain made of 575 parts keeps the driving force perfectly stable even during the letting down of the spring. Indeed, throughout the 50 hours of power reserve, the mainspring transmits its energy to the fusée via the chain which coils around the barrel and regularises the force distributed to the going train and then the silicon escape wheel.
When the watch is fully unwound, it is truly fascinating to see the barrel at 11 o'clock turn clockwise as you wind it, and the chain to once again wrap itself around the fusée at 1 o'clock for the system to be ready to ensure a "constant force" once again. Connoisseurs will also appreciate the impeccable finish of the two bridges screwed to the mainplate and supporting this elaborate mechanism.
The contrast between the extreme technical nature of this upper dial and the marvellous simplicity of the grained silver-toned lower dial is simply captivating. There, simple yet elegant rose gold-plated baton hour markers follow the railway-style minute track and two sub-dials provide the small seconds and power reserve indications. They use blued-steel hands just like the central hours and minutes for a perfect legibility. The sapphire crystal on the back of the case fully reveals the exceptional high-frequency calibre that animates this limited edition.
The Academy Georges Favre-Jacot is truly a remarkable piece of Fine Watchmaking and the perfect candidate to celebrate this 150th anniversary. Zenith has always prided itself on offering the very best of Fine Watchmaking at the most affordable price and with a price tag of USD 82,700 this exceptional model remains true to the Manufacture's spirit: if you factor in the high-frequency El Primero COSC-certified movement with silicon escapement as well as the force constante due to the fusée and chain system, one has to admit that the watch is extremely fairly priced. A wonderful addition to a long list of exciting models…
