The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
My homestead course is around 9800+ feet in length.
Patapsco State Park, MD.
Long story short.
Avery, Nikko, Brinster battled it out for 2 days, ending up with Nikko's first A-Tier win.
(I Think)(With a local in the final)
Avery said "TOO Wooded!
Nikko said roller heaven.
I say neither. (Open and wooded here)
I play around 975 rated rounds.
We are planning a trip to Denver and will be staying near Golden.
I can't find anything on the DGCR site recommending good courses.
In fact, it states there are only 3 courses nearby, which apparently suck.
Wheres my Denver Homies????????
Just need some positive feedback here from my fellow huckers.
Much thanks in advance. Perhaps a trip to Fat Tire and a few wineries for the ladies.
But, most likely a killer DG trip and to top it off, a trip to Red Rocks for Umphreys Mcgee,
The Wailers and, Galactic! On the 4th of July!
Can't wait,,,,,,,,,,,,Sorry for the LONG rant.

[Solved] Why is my 'a' inheriting this css...
Ok so I have been working on this site and all of my links have this weird little padding and drop shadow on the hover effect.. I want it in the mast head but not on the rest of the links... Maybe the drop shadow but nothing else.
Anyone that could help me get this little thing fixed would be greatly appreciated.
It can be seen on the home page @ http://hopewell-sub-pizza.com/ the read more buttons highlight the real trouble.
You have this:
.social a.active, a:hover, a:focus, a:active { /* styles */ }
...but it should be like this:
.social a.active, .social a:hover, .social a:focus, .social a:active { /* styles */ }
Also, your
div is causing a horizontal scrollbar due to its 100% width. To fix this you just need to applyposition: relative;
.Aye good eye..
I also had a .navigation a group set up wrong didnt even notice it.
Thanks so much

Our FAQ is organised into the following general categories.

A mad scientist named Jim Jannard began questioning the limits of industry standards. ?No one believed my ideas,? said Jim. ?No one would listen.? In 1975, he went into business for himself. Jim started Oakley with $300 and the simple idea of making products that work better and look better than anything else out there.
In his garage lab, Jim developed a new kind of motorcycle handgrip with a unique tread and a shape that fit the rider?s closed hand. ?Everything in the world can and will be made better,? Jim told skeptics, ?The only questions are, ?when and by whom??? Top pros took notice of the new design and its material that actually increased grip with sweat.
For Jim, that meant challenging the limits of conventional thinking. His homespun company was struggling yet his next invention would become a mainstay in MX racing for 17 years. Jim created the O Frame? goggle with a lens curved in the perfect arc of a cylinder. Pros like Mark Barnett, Marty Smith, Johnny O?Mara and Jeff Ward championed its clarity and wide peripheral view.
Jim went back to his lab and started reinventing sunglasses for sports. Few believed it could be done successfully, and most thought the industry?s big companies could not be challenged. Jim used innovations from his previous inventions to create ?Eyeshades?,? a design that began an evolution of eyewear from generic accessory to vital equipment.
The first world-class competitor to approach the company was Greg LeMond, who became a three-time winner of the Tour de France. Other pros like Scott Tinley and Mark Allen demanded the performance and protection offered by Eyeshades?.
Decades of innovation brought new product technologies, blends of science and art that have been awarded more than 600 patents worldwide. Today, Jannard?s brand has become the mark of excellence and the solution to challenges facing those who cannot compromise on performance.

Caption these photos of adorable animals at the National Zoo—and be sure to make us laugh!
Update: Friday, Sept 7: Thanks Wendy Ann Hester DuLaney for the laugh! We will be in contact with you about how to send you your prize!
"I am in otter amazement!"
It's Labor Day Weekend and you may want to use a last summer weekend to take advantage of one of Washington, DC's finest (and free) attractions—the Smithsonian Institution's National Zoo.
Visiting the orangutans, tigers, elephants and other members of the animal kingdom at the National Zoo is a perfect end-of-summer activity for the whole family—and did we mention it's free?
One of the big attractions at the zoo is catching its residents in their environments and eavesdropping on their lives. Sometimes animals do the strangest things!
This week's photo showcases the Smithsonian's National Zoo American Trail, which highlights animals from North America like this river otter. The trail was recently renovated and will reopen on Sept. 1. Other animals visitors may see along the trail are California sea lions—including the pup born in June 2011—gray seals, bald eagles, gray wolves, ravens, beavers, river otters, brown pelicans and merganser ducks.
So can you come up with a caption for what this little guy is doing in the photo?
We'll post one caption for a new photo each week, and the person with the most creative caption will win a Patch "swag kit"—complete with a tote bag, metal water bottle, magnet and pen.
Patch local editors will pick the winners. We're a tough crowd...so make us laugh!
Check out last week's winner and tell us if you agree with our choice!
Don't forget to hit the "keep me posted" button below to stay updated on the caption contest! Keep up with all your local news with our newsletter—if you have a Patch account, click on your name, then on "newsletter" at the top right to sign up.
The fine print:
- Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, the District of Columbia who are 18 and older.
- To enter, write a caption and post as a comment.
- All entries must be received by Thursday of the next week at midnight Eastern time.
- You may enter up to five captions.
- Winners are selected at the discretion of Patch editors.

Sadri Ramabaja, from the parliamentary group of "Vetëvendosje", said that this report shows miserable economic and social situation in the Municipality of Pristina. According to him, what happens with Pristina, is not in favor of a healthy government. According to him, the situation presented in this report is not real, as the report is the falsification of social reality.
"This report shows us the miserable economic situation and social situation more miserable of the citizens of Kosovo. If the president and his collaborators want to strengthen the welfare, this report shows that things are not going well. Even before this fact, that was made every effort to be presented every best possible thing, to be present also the projects funded by donations available for schools that are funded by the MEST, the economic development capacity of our center, has to do a lot. This happens because the management of those resources of the municipality is done like it is foreign commodity, "he said.
However, Mayor of Pristina Isa Mustafa, responded to these accusations, claiming that economic and social situation in Pristina, is satisfactory, but is serious as throughout Kosovo, as the unemployment rate is high.
"The situation is serious here, as throughout Kosovo, but it is not true that I had ever promised to employ 50 thousand people in Pristina, because there are no vacancies for 50 thousand and we as municipal are not the employer. This is something illusory and unstable. If we have 350 thousand officially employed, 50 thousand employees mean 16 percent more. There is no employment rate of 16 percent that can be done in Kosovo, which can be accomplished in any country. They are unstable issues. Because we have the economic increase rate of 3.7 percent and cannot respond to this increase an employment rate of 16 percent, "said Mustafa.

Ana Marquez-Greene, one of the 20 Sandy Hook Elementary School students gunned down Friday, "was an incredibly loving and spunky kid" who loved to sing and dance, a close family friend said Saturday.
See photos and view an interactive database profiling the victims of the shooting.
Ana, 6, was "really vivacious and affectionate," said Noah Baerman, a Connecticut jazz pianist who has known Jimmy Greene, Ana's father, since both men were in high school.
Baerman said Jimmy Greene and Nelba Marquez-Greene, Ana's mother, are "two of the most loving parents I've ever seen," Baerman said.
Baerman, who grew up Greater New Haven, now lives in Durham and teaches music at several institutions, including Charter Oak State College and Wesleyan University.
He was with Jimmy Greene and Nelba Marquez-Green as he spoke on the phone with a New Haven Register reporter Saturday, he said.
Greene and Marquez-Greene were not interested in talking about their loss, Baerman said.
Baerman declined to discuss how the family was coping with the loss. But "this is one of the most loving and caring families I've ever known, and it's incomprehensive that this could happen," he said.
The Greene-Marquez family just moved to Newtown earlier this year so Jimmy Green, a Hartford native who grew up in Bloomfield, could take a job as a music professor and assistant coordinator of the Jazz Program at Western Connecticut State University in Danbury. He previously had spent three years teaching at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg.
Nelba Marquez-Greene grew up in Puerto Rico. Continued...
Several other friends of Jimmy Greene were stunned by the news.
"It's just devastating – it's horrible," said saxophone player Kris Jensen of Hamden, a onetime music teacher and good friend of Jimmy Green who said he has known Ana's father since Greene was 14 or 1
Peter Hum, a jazz blogger for the Ottawa Sentinel, said Smith posted an acknowledgement of his daughter's passing on his personal Facebook page, which could only be viewed by Greene's Facebook friends.
"Thank you for all of your prayers and kind words of support," Greene wrote, according to Hum. "As we work through this nightmare, we're reminded how much we're loved and supported on this earth and by our Father in heaven. As much as she's needed here and missed by her mother, brother and me, Ana beat us all to paradise. I love you sweetie girl."
According to several members of the Connecticut music community who asked not to be identified, Ana's brother Isaiah, attended the school and was there at the time of the shooting but was unharmed.
The Sun News Network in Canada reported that Ana's grandfather, Jorge Marquez, is the mayor of Maunabo, Puerto Rico.
He told the El Nuevo Dia newspaper that he and his wife were hoping that Ana had just been wounded but were later informed by Ana's parents that she didn't make it.
Christian Sands, a jazz pianist performing in Connecticut, tweeted his support for Greene Friday night.
"My prayers and heart go out to my brother, Mr. Jimmy Greene," Sands tweeted. "Your loss cannot be compared. I'm praying for you and your family."
In 2009, Greene released an album called "Mission Statement." The ninth track is a song driven by a clear, lilting saxophone and supported by light, harmonizing notes from a piano. Continued...
It starts quiet and careful, then explodes into a joyous melody.
The song is named "Ana Grace."

H-4 MAGNETOSModerator: Team Cub

H-4 MAGNETOSWhile checking my parts manuals, I see that both Super-A and H tractors use the H-4 magneto. The one for the SA is listed as International Type H-4 (Special) while the listing for the H is International Type H-4. Should each type work well on the Super-A or are the differences great enough that the one for the H will not function properly if placed on an SA. Thanks, Dan
I believe the H-4 magnetoes for the H and Super A are absolutely identical. The "special" notation on your parts book is because standard equipment at the time that book was published was battery ignition, thus a magneto would have been special equipment.

NBC 4 Black History Essay Contest Winners
The Washington Informer partnered with NBC 4 on the 2011 celebration of Black History Month. The annual NBC4 Black History Essay Contest honors 9 -12 grade students who accepted the invitation to write an essay on "Why is Black History Month Important". The Black History Essay Contest is one of three heritage month essays contests that are sponsored by NBC4, because of their commitment to acknowl-edging the rich and diverse heritages throughout our community. The goal of the Black History Month Essay Contest is to continue to motivate study and thought.
The Washington Informer is proud to publish the winning essays from the 2011 NBC 4 Black History Month Essay Contest. Of the many entries that were received, the following four essays were judged to be the cream of the crop and are published here un-edited.
1st Place - Anthony Clarke
11th grade
Edmund Burke School in Washington, DC
Black History: The Unknown and New Faces of Greatness
My essay does not focus on the trials and tribulations of our people in the swamps of the Deep South nor in the bowls of overcrowded and diseased slave ships riding the waves of the Atlantic. My explanation of why Black History is important starts in Africa. When Europeans first came to Africa in search of its material wealth they did not stumble across a dark and mysterious continent of savage people. What they found were clever inquisitive people ready and willing to engage in trade. It was only with the help of these intelligent African peoples that Europeans survived their trek in Africa. Africans were multilingual, industrious and naturally endowed with strong trading acumen and Africans were frequently able to influences exchanges with Europeans in their favor. Many African people were able to assimilate the best aspects of European culture whilst bringing unprecedented wealth to themselves and their communities. It is this ingrained integrity, intelligence, and burning desire for self-betterment that often goes untold and makes the appreciation of African and African American accomplishments through Black History month important. During Black History month I find that our focus is usually placed on well-known figures such as Martin Luther King, Thurgood Marshall, and Harriet Tubman, but there are a wealth of people who have never had their stories told, their voices and deeds obscured by our society's inability to recognize their accomplishments. I this paper I hope to bring attention to their stories and how much people of African have shaped America.
Aspiring to go into the Law, I draw my inspiration not only from Thurgood Marshall, the first black judge on the Supreme Court but also from Anthony Johnson, a Virginia slave who in the 1620s used his knowledge of the British legal codes to fight for and win the freedom of himself and his family from their master. Well-spoke and knowledgeable of European Law, early slaves such as Anthony Johnson found ways to settle for their freedom in court, achieving their own manumission and rights as freeman due to their legal skill. Johnson was to later run a profitable tobacco farm, which employed both white and black for laborers. Johnson and other early African Americans like him were to shape our nation through the Revolutionary War.
Some 250 years after Anthony Johnson used the law of the land to free himself and shape the early American economy. The United States was being torn asunder by the Civil War. On one side was the North, fighting for the continuity of the Union, and on the other side was the South fighting to make a new nation. During this conflict, African Americans were more than the just the complacent and loyal patrons of the Union, black in America, actively fought for their freedom. The four year struggle that was the Civil war saw 163 African American regiments serve their country with unwavering loyalty and with the ferocity of people fighting to free their families from oppression. Black efforts to assist the Union where not only on the front lines, some African Americans served their country in the heart of the Confederacy itself. Marry Elizabeth Bowser, a freed slave who posed as a house slave in the home of Confederate President, Jefferson Davis, is a notable example. Bowser, who kept her literacy secret would at night, when she was forced to serve her master's dinner meticulously read and memorize the documents of the Confederate leadership and report her findings to a network of Union spies working in Richmond. Through her masterful spying Bowser was able to save the lives of countless Union soldiers and ultimately help end the bloodiest war fought on American soil. Much like Harriet Tubman, Bowser used her intelligence, craftiness, and skill to save the country she loved.
Now, 150 years after the guns of the Civil War were silenced at Appomattox and Elizabeth Bowser faded into obscurity, a new face has emerged on the scene for African American leaders and pushes the paradigms of African Americans in education. In 2010, Dr. Christopher B. Howard was the first African American to assume Presidency of Hampden-Sydney College. Hampden-Sydney College was founded in 1775, was one of the last schools chartered before the creation of the United States and is the oldest all male school in country. I was fortunate enough to be able to bear witness to the momentous event that was the inauguration of President Howard. Hampden-Sydney, a school rich in the tradition of developing talented young men into the leaders of tomorrow, selected Dr. Howard as the strongest candidate in the race presidency not only because of the strength of his resume but because of the strength of his character. In his inaugural address he states "A Hampden-Sydney Man commands respect by who he is and what he does as a good citizen" Dr Howard Stated that instance on honor, character, and development of the mind, body and the soul are what make Hampden-Sydney an institution without pee, I also believe that these qualities are what make Black History in America worth constant celebration.

Neglected Options
The nice thing about shirts with tan or gray patterns on white grounds is that they can be mixed with a jacket from another one of the men's color triumvirate of blue, gray and tan/brown and, though it is still possible to come up with clashing patterns, the colors will always work together. Add a third color in a necktie like the pink one on the gray stripe or the blue on the tan and you have an attractive combination for the day without looking overly coordinated.
In the photo, tan and gray striped shirts sewn by MyTailor.com using cloth from D & J Anderson's DJA Popeline book.

Nice post. My favorite neglected color for shirts is ecru.
Question, are both shirts in the photo gray? The shirt of the right looks tan but the last sentence in the second paragragh says it is gray. - August 4, 2011 at 8:18:00 AM PDT

Thank you for the copy reading. :-) it will say tan in a minute or two.

Interesting post, and very nice looking shirts! And I agree, blue is worn way too often. Gray is a nice alternative.

Great post. I'll have to go back and re-read your recent post on mixing blues, grays, and tans since this one really put what you were trying to say into perspective.

I wear green, and in my experience it is hard to find in the right shade. In the right shade, green has a similar functionality to blue, insofar as few have a green complexion and many colors complement it.
- August 4, 2011 at 4:00:00 PM PDT
- Alain said...
And what's the right complexion for these colours in your opinion? I'm white, with skin a bit darker than most English and lighter than most Mediterraneans, with green eyes and dark brown hair. I like how gray looks on me but never thought about tan. Thanks!

Can you tell us more about the ties?

What if you had a create a class? you could start off with a load out of your choice, then have to fend off with what you had until you ran out. Also, there would be the option of purchasing guns off of the wall and or mystery box. upgrading via pack-a-punch would still be an option as well as perks. I like the idea of the multiple weapon up grades/ perk upgrades. when playing as a team, there could be individual skill sets for each player causing more of a "team" mentality versus an all out free for all (noticing this happens a fair amount). there could be different team strategies based on these skill sets. ex: 8 players, sub divided into smaller teams to collectively take better positions "overwatch" and offensive/ defensive roles. or just stick together. of course, the layout of the maps would dictate the outcome of that idea. amongst other tangible thoughts, what about various ammo types? perhaps tracer rounds (used in conjunction with some form of accelerant causes zombie combustion) maybe even throwing knives ( just made effective for gaming purpose). AND also, make the 1911 more powerful. It is a big bore pistol, it should perform like one. etc........
And to reply to the actual question. Yeah, give us a trailer. we'll take whatever they wanna give us!
there won't be a trailer, there trying to keep zombies from the public as best as they can,
well i just thought id say that they have confirmed a 4v4 mode on which is going to be like verruckt only with 4 on each side and the objective is to meet up and survive for as long as possible but they have stated to watch for multiple traps along the way.
I heard there was going to be 2 teams of 4 competing to get the most points, kills, ect. But it's not confirmed yet.

It's back-to-school time here in the U.S. and that can mean only one thing… shopping. Yes, the age-old tradition of back-to-school shopping is in full swing and, for many parents out there, the final window of opportunity will be closing this weekend. The state of Texas has stepped in to offer a "Sales Tax Holiday" this weekend (August 20-22), a program also offered in many other states throughout the country, but is it enough to lure and your family away from the A/C and out into the heat of summer?
With the highest sales tax in the U.S. hovering at about 10.75% (California), you have to ask yourself if the savings are worth the effort. Crowded stores, long-lines, uncooperative kids and driving all over town might save you that 10%, but what if you could save more from the comfort of your own home or office? I think it is possible to save on your back-to-school shopping and, if you start today, you can still have your student(s) stocked up and ready to head off to their first day.

I've said for some time the dev team was being destroyed yes.
Dont kid youself all that other stuff, was created by sony, and just happens to be at Liverpool, the actual dev team is gone.
The merger with Evolution never happend by the way, the closest they came to it was Mick Hocking from Evo taking over and running Big big Evo and Liverpool.
I mean Big big got closed, this was next on the chopping block, its been a long time coming.
Not sure how you get the team will be absorbed out of
will try to relocate those affected to other studios. "We will be looking to relocate the team members throughout the studios, but unfortunately some redundancies will be necessary and in those cases we will assist staff in any way we can."
In reality, they no longer have jobs, they might be offered new ones, maybe.

Not following, are you suggesting that just because they made a game for the vita that in someway means they haven't been being slowly bleed for the past 5 years?
When I refer to all that other stuff, I mean all that WWSCE stuff left at Liverpool.
That's basically SCE admin, and nothing to do with game development, no where are they "keeping the label".

Its not realistic to think Sony could sustain all these studios heading into next gen. I saw this coming after last year's closures. It sucks but it may save them a lot of money.
08-23-2012 #40
Oh I see, confusion!.
What I meant by the "other stuff", is all the SCE stuff (SCEWW admin), the original Liverpool dev team has been given the axe (just now, not some time ago).
I was trying to clarify to you that the name wont "live on", its gone. They wont "keep the label" because there isn't anything to keep.
All the other stuff they talk about still being there, is to do with administration and publishing for SCEWW.
Its not to do with making a game.

A friend bought a 741 in Davenport and the clutch apparently is grabbing since it feels like the engine is still engaged when you engage the clutch. It shifts but grinds as you shift. It was low on fluid in the clutch. He inspected the plates and they seem fine. I am by no means an Indian expert but am only trained on Harleys. Is there something obvious or does some one have an idea of why the clutch doesn't release. The lever coming out of the primary cover is moving from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock when he has it conected up which he believes is correct. Help!

Health Information
Scalp Problems
To maintain normal hair production, eat 2 to 3 servings of Reference protein Opens New Window a day. Protein is found in meat, chicken, fish, eggs, some cheeses, dried beans, tofu, grains, and nuts. For more information, see the topic Reference Healthy Eating.
Treat your hair gently. If your hair breaks easily:
- Shampoo, comb, and brush your hair less frequently.
- Use a cream rinse or conditioner after shampooing your hair. This will make your hair easier to comb and more manageable.
- Use wide-tooth combs and brushes with smooth tips.
- Avoid rough combing, brushing, or rubbing with a towel when your hair is wet. Wet hair is more fragile and thus more likely to break.
- Avoid hairstyles that pull on your hair, such as ponytails, cornrows, and braids. The constant pulling causes some hair loss, especially along the sides of the scalp. If you do use these hairstyles, avoid tight ponytails and braids. Alternate with looser hairstyles.
- Limit your use of curling irons, flat irons or straighteners, hot rollers, and hair dryers. If you use these products, use the low heat setting.
- Avoid chemical treatments until hair you have previously treated with chemicals has grown out.
To prevent head lice, do not share hats, combs, or other items. For more information, see the topic Reference Lice.
To prevent skin cancer, protect your scalp (and the rest of your skin) from the sun.
- Limit your exposure to the sun, especially from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
- Wear a wide-brimmed hat.
- Do not use tanning booths or sunlamps.
For more information, see the topics Reference Skin Cancer, Melanoma and Reference Skin Cancer, Nonmelanoma.

The Corporate Plan
This Plan presents the Council's commitments for 2013/14, outlining how we will take these forward and defining how we will measure our progress. Our priorities have been shaped by residents' views through a range of consultation activities and informed by analysis to identify current and future needs. In this way, we have ensured that we are focusing upon the areas most important to local people.
Our mission is to be a Borough where residents can influence the shape of their local neighbourhood and priorities within it; where we have an accountable, open Council; and powerful involved communities. A fundamental role of the Council and the individual Councillors is to represent the residents of the borough. The Council also has a role in ensuring that local people have opportunities to have a say on matters that affect them. In May this year we will ensure that residents are able to have a say on one of the biggest issues – the proposed expansion of Heathrow by holding a local referendum on this issue.
Our vision is for Richmond to be the best and one of the safest boroughs in London, one identified by its green character, historic buildings, high quality appearance, vibrant high streets and outstanding schools and services, one where businesses can thrive and citizens can help change neighbourhoods for the better, including supporting the most vulnerable of our residents. Following the tremendous response that the Council received to the All in One Survey in 2011, we have developed village plans reflecting the issues that local people identified as important for their local areas. These plans are not static; they reflect local priorities, setting out each village, and the programmes that the Council and the communities are delivering.
The Council has also spent the last three years considering the Council as an organisation. In November 2010, we set out our ambition to become a commissioning Council, securing efficiencies and savings. We have taken a fundamental look at all of our services to determine the best way of securing high quality value for money services and enabling creativity and innovation.
The Plan explains how the Council will contribute towards delivering this vision and how we intend to work with the community in designing and delivering services. Our approach will be underpinned by the following values, "Fairness for all; Involvement of all; Value for all"
Our priorities
Our priorities for the next year are categorised under the themes of 'People', 'Place' and 'Resources', in order to align our business planning processes with our commissioning intentions. Within these themes, we have identified the following service priorities:
- Protecting the most vulnerable
- A healthy borough
- The best schools in London
- A Green Borough
- Supporting Business and the Arts
- A Borough open to visitors
- A Safe Borough
- Putting people first
- An accountable council
- Involving our community
- Fairness for all
Protecting the most vulnerable: choice in service
We know that some residents in the borough are vulnerable and may require support to maintain independent lives. The Council will protect the most vulnerable and ensure residents have access to the support and benefits to which they are entitled. We will continue to develop personalised support to give people more choice and control over their lives.
We are committed to ensuring that Richmond upon Thames is as safe as it can be for adults and children at risk. We will achieve this by working collaboratively in partnership with statutory and voluntary sector partners to support vulnerable people.
There are some challenges and inequalities between relatively wealthy and relatively poor areas of the borough and between children with particular needs. Our vision is to target the most support on those who need the most help, ensuring that every child in every part of the borough, no matter what their background or their need, has the chance to fulfil their true to potential.
We will recognise the contribution of older people to the life of the borough and improve services to those most in need including the elderly, frail and isolated. We have appointed a Champion for Older residents to listen and respond to older people in the borough.
A healthy borough: Integrated care
We are committed to promoting the health, wellbeing and independence of people and communities. To achieve this, we commission a range of services including reablement, home support, day care, meals alongside support from the voluntary sector in order to provide the best outcomes for individuals. Our Tenant's Champion supports tenants in the social rented sector.
We will work with Richmond's Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) to develop and commission integrated services across health and social care. Working with Hounslow Council, Richmond and Hounslow CCGs and Hounslow and Richmond Community Healthcare NHS Trust we will take steps to set up an Integrated Care Organisation with the aim of improving health and social care services for residents. The business case will be developed for consideration in June 2013, with the intention of staged implementation during summer and autumn 2014. From April 2013 Public Health responsibilities transfer to the Council from the Primary Care Trust under the Health and Social Care Act 2012.
We are committed to ensuring every child has the best start in life, supporting them to fulfill their potential and improve their life chances, and to integrate health and social care to improve care in the community and support people with long term conditions out of hospital.
The best schools in London
We are committed to delivering greater choice and excellence in education for parents and promoting the independence and autonomy of schools. To achieve this, working collaboratively with the Royal Borough of Kingston, we are establishing a new body - Achieving for Children - to deliver children's services. We will expand primary and secondary provision for all; promote sixth form choice in local schools; establish a local Roman Catholic secondary school, a further secondary school in the borough, and encourage new free schools.
A Green Borough: Local Diversity and Quality Planning
This year, the Uplift programme will continue to revitalise areas of the borough through a range of improvements including enhancements to visual appearance, retail areas, open spaces and civic areas. The five year programme, which has been given initial funding of £11 million by the Council, covers the areas of Whitton, Hampton North, Barnes, Mortlake and Ham. Twickenham will see town centre improvements, a reduction in congestion, and improved environmental and safety measures as part of the Twickenham Area Action Plan covering the use of land and buildings. The plan covers the period up to 2027; setting out an overall strategy for the future of Twickenham town centre and the principles for transport. This will include preparations for the Rugby World Cup which will take place in Twickenham in 2015.
We will strengthen civic pride through commonsense policies, which strike a balance between making the borough accessible to all and protecting our precious environment. We will continue to work with residents to increase rates of recycling, reduce energy consumption and promote sustainable outcomes. In response to the All in One process, a new multi-million pound Parks Improvement Programme is being delivered alongside significant new money for highways and footpath maintenance.
The Village Plan process will give residents direct control of parts of our budgets for the first time. We will expect developers to respect the Borough's unique character and give higher priority to quality design and building that enhances the local street scene and is in keeping with the character of local surroundings.
We have acted to restrict future high-rise development. We will end "garden grabbing" and re-balance the previous policy of promoting smaller rather than family dwelling units. We will carry forward an Uplift Programme for Hampton North, Whitton, Barnes, Ham and Mortlake and regenerate Twickenham after years of neglect to be a twin Borough hub with Richmond.
Supporting local business, reviving local high street and arts
The economy of the Borough is mature, with an emphasis on financial, business, hospitality and retail services. We are working with local businesses and their representative organisations to help identify and address issues and to capitalise on the opportunities that the coming year brings. We will do this by enhancing the Borough's profile as a place to visit and do business, encouraging social enterprise and supporting initiatives to boost our town and village centres. We will support small shops and high streets, encourage businesses and sole traders.
Businesses have an important role to play in maintaining the vibrancy and distinctiveness of local areas, making them attractive for residents and visitors and are a key factor in the quality of life for residents. We will continue to support the improvement of the trading environment through the Town Centre Opportunity Fund and Civic Pride Fund. We are working to support the High Streets for example by delivering a Business Improvement District (BID) for Twickenham.
We will keep Borough libraries open, promote exhibitions and sustain the Borough's excellence in the arts, theatre and music. We will support competitive sports and work with locally based clubs. The arts, history and a quality environment are all hallmarks of the Borough, contributing to its attractiveness as a business and visitor destination upon which we will sustain and build upon.
A Borough open to visitors
We have a balanced transport policy that is fair to the motorist, cyclist and pedestrian alike, and sustain a "Fair Parking" policy that ensures parking services serve the interests of local business and communities and do not punish motorists for the sake of revenue generation. We will remove yellow lines where we can and extend short-term free parking. We will not reward wardens for ticketing and we will not impose new Community Parking Zones, except where a majority want them. We will encourage tourism and visitors.
We are always looking to improve the services we offer to our residents and others who visit, work or go to school in the borough, whilst at the same time reducing costs. Our aim is to have a means through which residents and others can manage most of their contact with the Council efficiently and effectively and at a time that suits them. We have already introduced 'The Richmond Web Account', which provides immediate on line access to an individual's council tax and business rates status as well as the means to manage parking permits and recycling bin rentals, with more services planned to come on line in the next few months. To supplement this service the Council is planning to introduce a Richmond Card linked to the Richmond Web Account. This will be a smart card to initially replace the three existing cards in use across the Council for:
- Parking discounts for residents
- Access to leisure services
- Access to library services
It will also provide a discount scheme for use with local shops and businesses. Further functions and services will be added to the Richmond Card in the future. The Council plans to involve residents in determining what these services should be.
A safe borough
We are one of the safest Boroughs in London. We will work with the police and other organisations both voluntary and statutory, to reduce crime. We will use a range of different methods including drug testing on arrest, Controlled Drinking Zones and Dispersal Zones to ensure that people visiting our town centres remain safe and are not disturbed by alcohol related anti-social behaviour.
We will use the Community Trigger, which enables local people to hold us to account for the way that we are tackling anti-social behaviour
An accountable council
We are open and honest about our spending and performance; we have led in publishing information and broadcasting meetings online. We welcome challenge; to that end we publish regular, up-to-date and relevant information, with established channels for questions and feedback. We have introduced DataRich, a publically available web-based tool which brings together information relating to key local issues and provides a central online resource of local data and information for residents, local businesses and voluntary organisations.
Putting people first: a lower tax Borough
In a tough economic climate the Council has worked to maximise resources and is now a more efficient Council. 2012-13 included an additional £8m of savings bringing the total achieved in the last two years to more than £20m. A further £10m has already been agreed for 2013/14 and 2014/15.
The current economic climate means that the Council's resources are more limited with central funding reduced, the impact of the recession on Council income and rising demand for services, particularly from the vulnerable. The recent Local Government Finance Settlement has made the Council's financial plans more challenging. In summary:
- The national headline figures showed a 4% reduction in funding for Local Government followed by a further 8.4% reduction in 2014/15, reducing the total funding from £27.2bn to £23.9bn
- The Council remained the lowest funded per head in London.
- The Council lost a further £4.6m government funding in 2013/14 and expects to lose an equivalent amount in the following year.
In this context, the Council has already set out a rolling three year financial plan which includes a Commissioning and Transformation Programme. This is designed to achieve the strategic aim of the Council to become a Commissioning Council, and deliver large-scale savings through the transformation of specific service areas and improving efficiency across all Council services. However, the key objective of the Council's Medium Term Financial Strategy (MTFS) remains to:
Deliver a zero % Council Tax increase in the next year and work towards zero or sustainable low increases in the years beyond
In order to do so we will be continuing to focus on developing our commissioning and transformation programmes, whilst also ensuring that we can support our ambitious capital investment programmes which support the services most valued by the local community including schools, parks, highways and pavements.
Providing value for money is integral to all we do. We have frozen Council Tax for a further year and introduced fair parking polices on all our high streets. A comprehensive Efficiency and Transformation Programme is set to deliver large-scale savings, eliminate waste and transfer resources to key priorities. We are committed to joint working and shared service arrangements with other authorities and bodies.
Involving our community
We are committed to forming a new relationship with local communities, where the Council genuinely listens, and residents know that they have influence. To achieve this, we are delivering a unique programme of public engagement. This has included the production of 14 Village Plans based on local priorities determined by local people through the All in One Survey. We have delivered the majority of the actions identified in the Village Plans and will continue to report back on progress with these over the coming year. We will provide opportunities for local people to engage with voluntary and community groups in their local village area. We will publish the Community Plan 2013-2018 which describes a vision for the social, environmental and economic development of the area with our partners. We will provide more advice and information to help voluntary sector and community organisations who want to shape and deliver services for the local community. And we will continue our programme of involving and engaging residents, service users and their carers in the development of services.

5. | The PussyCat Dolls | ||
The PussyCat Dolls have been around for about ten years. At first they mostly did cver songs (E.g. Sway Shall We Dance? We Went As Far As We Felt Like Going Shark Tale)
But after there hit Don't Cha, there album PCD is platnium after barely six months. The Band Consists Of:- Melody Thornton Ashley Roberts Carmit Bachar Jessica Sutta Kimberly Wyatt Nicole Scherzinger They totally rock, and whoever calls them sluts are idiots, they don't know them. "The PussyCat Dolls are hot, Don't Cha think?"
1. | The Pussycat Dolls | ||
The Slipknot of R&B/Pop music, consisting of seven or so scantily clad young women, only two of which are actually doing anything. The Dolls are former strippers and have produced some of the most nauseatingly trite songs of the current millenium. Still, we'd all like to splooge on their collective stomachs. The Pussycat Dolls regularly engage in deviant group sex with throngs of large african-american men.

One of the most irritating female performance groups to ever get airtime. The lyrical content of the songs is mainly pointless and idiotic, usually centering around the same thing every single time (about how "freaky" they are, or something similar.) As opposed to the person in the above post, anyone who doesn't think that they're sluts needs to get glasses, and actually read the lyrics. According to one of the above posts, The Pussycat Dolls aren't sluts, and anyone who thinks so is an idiot. The song "Don Cha" is about them being flirts, and the song "Buttons" is about someone taking off their shirts. But hey, they're not sluts.

An all female burlesque dance group that was formerly fronted by Carmen Electra, but has since changed their image and now has Nicole Scherzinger from Eden's Crush fame as a lead singer. The Pussycat Dolls hit it big in the music world with their song "Don't Cha".
