I'm toying around with this idea, but I feel like it's a little too simple. Maybe it needs something behind it?
What do you guys think?

emac152 weeks agoLolz. This one is clever, though I probably couldn't wear it to work for the innuendo. ;)
atreydies152 weeks agoI think it's great.
kyle41388152 weeks agoVery nice. Maybe you could add the light flashing at the top with like a light blue or yellow perhaps? Beyond that, I don't think I'd change much.
ChrisCarter152 weeks agoThanks for your comments!
Right, I've added a white glow to the top of the TARDIS, and I've also added a light blue glow behind it. Now I just need to decide which combination I like best:
Just the white glow with no background, just the background with no white glow, or both. Or none at all? You might like the original. -
TARDIScookie152 weeks agoI'm not a fan of the light blue glow, personally. I abslolutely LOVE Doctor Who though, and I would totally buy this as the plain one. Clever and Simple, thats what I like!
nimawai152 weeks agoThat is too funny. Only a Whovian would get the reference. Other people will just think you're a perv with a phone box fetish. Brilliant!
Kfurrow152 weeks agoLove it with or without the glow
ChrisCarter152 weeks agoHaving slept on it I think I prefer the original one.
kyle41388152 weeks agoI'm digging it with the white light, but without the blue background glow. Good stuff!
ShirtNerd152 weeks agoThe two lights looks best IMO. Do whatever you want.

We don't hear much from Hawaii. Can you tell us what codes the state operates under, and what kind of licensing does Hawaii have for plumbers? Is it mandatory for all, or just union?
Does anybody know of any good sites to seek out licensed plumbers in Hawaii? Current I'm looking for either a Journeyman or a Master to work on a project in Honolulu. Obviously if you're a licensed plumber in Oahu and you're reading this post then by all means email me at firstname.lastname@example.com or call my Sr. Project Manger Miguel Rentas to setup an interview at 888-883-2920.
Also is there a section within terrylove.com to publish job postings other than the board? I skimmed through the site and nothing jumped out at me. In any event thanks for checking out the post and any assistance you can provided is very much appreciated.

We don't hear much from Hawaii. Can you tell us what codes the state operates under, and what kind of licensing does Hawaii have for plumbers? Is it mandatory for all, or just union?
Thanks for the comment. I'm fairly certain Hawaii is under the UPC 97. The project is private rather than union. Hope this answers your question and thanks again for the comment.
Whover licenses contractors in HI can tell you WHO has a license. And a few phone calls to plumbers in the Yellow Pages will confirm it.
If you send me the air fare and pay for the hotel, I'll be there ASAP
Wouldn't they also have to pay for you to get a license there?
Badges! we don't need no stinkin badges!
I agree. That's a pretty quiet state up there.
Read what the end of this sentence means.
Hawaii is currently using the 97 UPC as ammended by the city and county. The state is in the process of sychronizing the license renewal dates to coincide with the 3 year cycle of the UPC for the newly required continuing education requirements (being up to date with code changes). This past year was the first time we had to fulfill the requirement. During the process we fell a little behind in the cycle. Hawaii usually adopts the updated code 3 years after its printing, which means we have been using the 97 code since 2000. It generally takes that long for the city and county to review the code changes and make its ammendments.
According to local statutes everyone practicing as a plumber needs to be licensed. This does not mean that all plumbers are licensed, it is not an enforced requirement, especially under repairs.

Thanks for the updates. I lived in Hawaii for a few years, in the '70s ( Ewa Beach, Oahu). At that time, as far as I could tell....it was the wild wild west on codes and such!
Well now, thanks a lot fella's, there goes my vacation

For three days in October Hurricane Wilma sat astride Cancun, Mexico, dumping rain, tearing at its beautiful white sand beaches, and damaging over 80 percent of its hotel room inventory. As of November 4, just 5,200 rooms out of an inventory of close to 28,000 were in operation. The Cancun Convention and Visitors Bureau is estimating that about half the area's rooms will be open by December 15, with another 5,000 open by January 15.
While the devastation on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula pales with that suffered by New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina, Cancun has still suffered a big blow, particularly as it heads into its high season. One industry group that has pulled its meeting out of Cancun is The Association of Destination Management Executives, which had scheduled its 2006 annual meeting for February 2 to 5 at the Hilton Cancun Beach and Golf Resort. The association has decided to wait until 2007 for its Cancun meeting in order to "give the area a chance to completely recover from Wilma." In the meantime, ADME has relocated its 2006 meeting to The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, Colo.
The good news, according to Artemio Santos Santos, executive director of the Cancun CVB, is that the Mexican government is contributing $20 million toward beach restoration, and another $10 to rebuild the infrastructure along Kukulkan Boulevard, along which lies most of Cancun's major hotels and resorts.
In addition, the CVB reports that the Convention Center is fully operational, restaurants are reopening, and that many of the area' golf courses will be back in operation by the end of November. Local travel agencies and DMCs are also open for business.
The problem, says Claudia Bustamente, sales manager Cancun for Maritur DMC, is that there is little business to be had right now because most of the hotels and resorts with conventions and meeting services are closed. Groups that have cancelled bookings have been either unable to rebook because of date conflicts, or hesitate because of concerns over whether Cancun will be ready for business in the coming months.
While some major hotels appear to have recovered fairly quickly—Le Meridien was scheduled to reopen November 16—other hotels and resorts will take longer to rebound. The Moon Palace Resort, for example, will not reopen until December 20, while the Hilton Cancun Golf & Spa Resort wasn't even planning to announce a reopening date until early this month. In the meantime Hilton has waived cancellation penalties for groups and individuals through February 28.
"I have a group that is supposed to stay at a large resort and they are thinking of changing their program because they are concerned the area won't be viable that soon," Bustamente says. "But, the authorities, the hoteliers, and all the suppliers are working very hard, and very quickly, in order to get Cancun ready."

Lucky me i have iPod Touch 2G (MC Model) woot now i get to wait even longer
I can't even get it to create my custom ipsw.
"Could not find file c...\sn0wbreeze\Resourrces.zip"
You can't because you have the new bootrom.
What do you mean, is it because your download file is .zip. Just rename it to .ipsw and run snowbreeze 1.6. I just jailbroke mine and unlock by Snowbreeze
so re-jailbreak using one of the above mentioned and then upgrade to ios4 is what i understand this to be, correct?
everything you said went right over my head. i've been jailbreaking my phone for about a year now, but i've only used redsnow, blackrain, and spirit. if i'm on 3.1.3(and jailbroken already), why would i upgrade, then downgrade just to jailbreak again? guess i'll just wait a couple more days. i really was gonna go get the iphone 4 and give my son my 3gs, but it sounds like that need to work out some bugs 1st...
Mmracing- did you post this up on the snowbreeze forum? Someone posted an identical issue and their fix was downloading the Ipsw again. Maybe it was a bad download or source.
Yes, exactly but your previous jailbreak must not be Spirit, then restore to Snowbreeze.ipsw created by Snowbreeze. It works like a Charm..
Does anybody know if I have to be on iTunes 9.2 to make sn0wbreeze 1.6 to work?
Before I JB, does anyone know what other apps dont work beside Winterboard, from what I heard it doesn't work?
Last time we had a whole thread for us to keep track.
Here's another n00b question to add to the mix. I've only jb'd with blackra1n so I'm not familiar with the process of snowbreeze. I download apple ios4, use snowbreeze to modify the ipsw file, then tell my phone to restore with that file? With the outcome is it like an update where I would still have my apps etc or a restore where I start from scratch?
You have to look at the 3rd digit too, if it is 0, then it is year 2010, eventhough week 17, it is still a new bootrom
I just want a jailbreak for iPhone 4 ios4 haha
man, has this even worked for anyone yet? I'm repeatedly getting "cannot restore blah blah error 1600" every single time.
me too smh
I had a problem using the beta of redsn0w. When I jailbroke with it it disabled my mms. Does the samething with snowbreeze. Is anyone else having this problem? I have a 3G
You could be in Recovery loop, unfortunately quickpwn doesn't work when Itunes 9.2 is installed. So you best bet is to use another computer whereby quickpwn can open up , follow the pop up message, then you will be booted to home screen.I have tried using sn0wbreeze to upgrade to ios4 from 3.1.2, old bootrom, previously jailbroke with blackrain. It gets half way thru the restore, and says "the iphone "iphone" could not be restored. an unknown error ocurred (2). Am I missing something? I tried redoing the custom Ipsw thru sn0wbreeze, but I get the same error every time. HELP!!! I'm now stuck with an iphone in recovery mode. help please
ok but my previous (3.1.3) was spirit. how do i get around this to upgrade to ios4 and jailbreak again?
Are you in DFU or Recovery mode?
I mistakenly tried in DFU the first time and got 1600 but in Recovery it worked without any issues.

Brussels, 24.1.2007
COM(2006) 819 final
An action plan for airport capacity, efficiency and safety in Europe
An action plan for airport capacity, efficiency and safety in Europe
1. The liberalisation of the European air transport sector is a major success : air traffic in Europe has tripled between 1980 and 2000. Between 1992 and 2005 the number of intra-EU routes has increased by 150%. European citizens can now enjoy a diversified range of air services at an affordable price.
Concrete measures have been taken by the European Community in order to sustain this growth whilst maintaining a high level of safety and efficiency:
- The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) was created in 2002 in order to rationalise European activities in the field of air worthiness;
- The Single European Sky legislative package adopted in 2004 aims at comprehensively reforming of the Air Traffic Management sector, with a view to increasing the safety and efficiency of the European sky.
- If demand for air traffic continues in line with current trends, it will double in 20 years. This will clearly have serious environmental implications. The Commission is addressing this issue with a series of initiatives aimed at internalising the external costs of transport and at reducing the air transport contribution to the greenhouse effect.
The mid-term review of the Commission's 2001 Transport White Paper[1] recognises that measures are needed to reduce the negative environmental effects caused by the rapid growth of traffic. The aim of this document is to optimise the use of existing infrastructure, promote the use of technological developments, to improve safety and efficiency, and to improve the planning framework of new infrastructure when it is needed.
2. In a modern society connectivity is the basis for economic competitiveness, social and regional cohesion and cultural development. Consequently, not only do the economic and commercial needs of globalisation drive the growing demand for air transport, but the demand for air travel is also boosted by evolving societal and cultural needs.
3. After liberalising the air transport market by the creation of the internal market and addressing the "saturation of the skies" through the Single European Sky initiative, the Commission will now focus on airports. Capacity will not be able to match demand and risks becoming the most constraining factor on air transport. The knock-on network effects of this weakest link threatens the efficiency of the whole air transport chain. Since air transport is seen as a 'motor' for economic growth, this in turn risks undermining the overall competitiveness of the European economy.
4. Airports are of significant economic importance , both on a local and global scale. While the operators of Europe's airports directly employ some 120 000 staff to serve 580 million passengers per year, the total on-site employment of airline, maintenance, catering, retailing and air traffic control company's amount to some 1.1 million workers.
The airport sector directly creates on average 925 jobs per million workload units[2]. Proximity to a major airport is for 31% of companies a key location factor for manufacturing plants. For banking and insurance services, air transport makes up to 50% of total transport demand[3].
An efficient air transport industry therefore contributes to the objectives laid down in the Lisbon agenda.
5. Airport capacity is a function of both runway and ground infrastructure . The runway capacity corresponds to the maximum number of aircraft landing and/or taking off, taking into account physical constraints which have an impact on safety like wake turbulences vortices. The ground infrastructure capacity corresponds to the physical lay out of the terminals (parking spaces and boarding gates, etc.) and the efficiency of their management.
6. Given the expected traffic evolution, Europe will face an ever growing gap [4] between capacity and demand. This is referred to as the "capacity crunch". If current capacity levels are not drastically increased, it is estimated that over 60 European airports will be heavily congested and the top 20 airports will be saturated at least 8-10 hours per day by 2025.
7. Such congestion is likely to have a severe impact on airlines' ability to maintain their schedules, especially at hub airports, and will therefore result in a less efficient European air transport industry. Congestion will also result in environmental and safety costs , since the density and complexity of operations will reach an unprecedented level.
The capacity crunch at airports poses a threat to the safety, efficiency and competitiveness of all actors involved in the air transport supply chain.
2. a strategic vision to deal with the capacity crunch
8. There is no "golden bullet" solution available for such a complex issue. Beyond the multiplicity of actors and the very technical nature of operations, planning horizons in the airport sector are also a challenge:
9. It takes up to 5 to 10 years or more to provide new infrastructure;
10. 1 to 5 years are needed in order to plan and optimise the use of existing runways, including the surrounding airspace.
11. Between mid-September 2005 and early 2006 the Commission consulted stakeholders to seek possible solutions to address the airport capacity shortfall. Responses from government agencies, airlines, airport operators, pilots, air navigation service providers, experts, private citizens and environmental organisations all provided valuable input[5]. A main finding of the consultation was that there was a broad consensus as to the existence of the problem and the need to find market-driven and environmentally sustainable solutions . Many contributors highlighted the necessity for improved collaboration and information sharing between all actors involved in the operational chain at airports.
12. Discussions on the capacity issue took place during the high level meetings of the Directors General of Civil Aviation under the UK Presidency in 2005 and in Salzburg under the Austrian Presidency in May 2006.
13. As a result of this consultation, a number of actions are listed:
14. The need for a more efficient use of existing runways and support for new infrastructure;
15. An appropriate balance between market-led solutions (market mechanisms for slot allocation) and regulatory measures (Single European Sky and airport safety oversight) must be sought;
16. The European Community could also support the airport sector through its financial instruments: TEN-T, European Cohesion Policy's programmes through European Regional Development and the Cohesion Funds (according to the Community Strategic Guidelines for Cohesion and the priorities defined in each programme), or through initiatives such as SESAR (Single European Sky ATM Research);
17. In order to promote safety binding Community rules are needed in particular on the safety for the aerodrome air side, including not only the infrastructure, but also operations and management;
18. Aviation security must be a paramount consideration when seeking to increase airport capacity;
19. Regional airports are important to the development of an integrated European air transport network. In this respect, it would be desirable to unlock existing latent capacity at regional airports provided that Member States respect Community legal instruments relating to state aids[6]. Global Navigation Satellite Systems could play a significant role for increasing capacity and flexibility of operations at those airports without increasing the cost of local infrastructure. Member States should endeavour to improve the accessibility of such airports by rail and road to allow them to act as reliever airports.
Given these elements, the Commission will develop five key actions:
- Make better use of existing airport capacity;
- A consistent approach to air safety operations at aerodromes;
- Promote "co-modality", the integration and collaboration of the transport modes;
- Improve the environmental capacity of airports and the planning framework for new airport infrastructure;
- Develop and implement cost efficient technological solutions.
The stakeholder consultation confirmed the urgent need for co-ordinated action. This paper proposes a list of concrete actions which could be best taken at EU level. The European Commission shall monitor progress made by setting up an observatory.
3. Make better use of existing airport capacity
3.1. Capacity assessment and medium term planning methodologies
20. Capacity assessment should be based on an accurate inventory of the existing and planned airport throughput. At present, such a Europe-wide inventory does not exist. Moreover, airports are using different methods and taxonomies to assess their capacity. This makes comparison and benchmarking difficult.
Eurocontrol, the European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation, supports the Commission in the implementation of the Single European Sky by undertaking a series of technical activities in order to prepare draft implementing rules that can be used as a basis for a Commission proposal to be adopted under the comitology procedure.
The Commission proposes to use these working arrangements in order to develop an implementing rule on common definitions and common analytical tools for aerodrome capacity assessment as well as procedures for the involvement of airport operators in medium term capacity planning.
21. Eurocontrol has developed a systematic and well-functioning process for air traffic management capacity planning at a European level. The Commission proposes to extend this exercise to airport capacity planning, which would enable the sector to have a global view on airport capacity issues in Europe. The Commission will invite Member States, relevant authorities and stakeholders to form an observatory on airport capacity which will supervise this planning process. The observatory which could start working in 2007 would be a forum to exchange and monitor data and information on airport capacity in order to establish a pan-European vantage point on this important matter.
The Commission will issue a mandate to Eurocontrol to develop harmonized airport capacity and assessment methodology tools in early 2007.
The observatory on airport medium term capacity planning under the aegis of the Commission will use the EU-wide capacity assessment inventory to improve awareness and information on regional capacity needs and will deliver an annual report to that effect.
3.2. Airport slots and flight plans
22. In Europe, aircraft operators are required to submit a flight plan at least one hour prior to the flight departure. They receive in return an Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) slot, which corresponds to the time at which the aircraft can take off without creating an overflow in the air traffic management system. ATFM slots are typically issued when there is a lack of intrinsic capacity, in air traffic control centres or airports [7], or when there is an unexpected constraint on capacity (such as fog, thunderstorms, technical systems failure, etc.).
In practice, verification of flight plans against airport slots does not take place in a systematic manner, leading to interferences in the optimal use of airport slots. A side effect is that aircraft occupy taxi and runway capacity longer than necessary, thereby having an adverse effect on the environment.
Eurocontrol received in 2005 a mandate to develop in close co-operation with the Commission implementing rules on ATFM[8]. The draft implementing rule is expected to be presented to the Single European Sky comitology committee during the beginning of 2007.
23. If necessary, Article 14 of the slot Regulation[9] could be modified in such a way that the competent air traffic management authorities are compelled to reject an aircraft operator's flight plan whenever an air carrier does not hold the required airport slots.
24. In accordance with the Single European Sky framework Regulation[10], Eurocontrol has also been requested to provide technical assistance to the Commission in preparing a progress report by 20 April 2007, to the Council and the European Parliament on the implementation of the SES legislation.
In close co-operation with the Commission, the mandate given to Eurocontrol on ATFM measures will propose solutions to ensure consistency between airport slots and flight plans, and will recommend any required amendments to relevant legislation. The draft AFTM implementing rule will be submitted to the Single European Sky comitology committee for its opinion. The Commission will also evaluate the findings and potential impact of the 2007 Single European Sky implementation report on airport operations.
3.3. Increasing predictability and reducing airport delays via Coll aborative Decision-Making (CDM)
25. Predictability is of major importance for airlines and airports in their operations management. For example, airlines build into their schedule a "buffer" which allows for an absorption of unexpected delays in arriving or departing aircraft. Cutting five minutes off this buffer would be worth around € 1 000 million in better use of airline and airport resources.
26. In addition "airlines, airports, air traffic control and the ATFM community need to move from an "insular perspective" to a more general focus on overall air transport performance"[11]. Enhanced decision-making capabilities through information sharing amongst all airport partners bring many quantitative and qualitative benefits to the operation of not only individual airports but more importantly for the airport network. This inclusive information sharing process in an institutionalised form is called Collaborative Decision-Making (CDM). Airport collaborative decision-making would decrease knock-on delays at the network level and improve recovery from weather or other disturbing occurrences leading to airport capacity wastage.
27. The Commission believes that airport collaborative decision-making can bring substantial benefits to the operation of the airport network as a whole if a critical mass of partners participates. It is also considered that the increased operational efficiencies would also result in obtaining welcomed environmental benefits.
The Commission proposes to give a mandate to Eurocontrol to develop implementing rules for the introduction of Airport-CDM at European airports in 2008.
4. A consistent approach to air safety operations at airports
4.1. Extension of the responsibilities of EASA to aerodrome safety regulation
28. Intensive aerodrome use and higher traffic volumes require improved safety levels. Aerodromes have been the least safety regulated link in the aviation chain. Voluntary efforts by the group of aerodrome safety regulators[12] have produced remarkable results. However, common binding rules are needed in order to provide uniform levels of aviation safety to the European citizens, as advocated in the new ICAO requirements on aerodrome safety. Moreover, since Member States do not uniformly implement the ICAO provisions, there is no level playing field among airport operators[13], and it forces companies operating aerodromes in different Member States to apply a disparate set of national or even local safety Regulations.
29. As announced, the Commission will therefore adopt a legislative proposal to extend EASA's role to the safety of aerodromes[14]. A preliminary impact assessment for an "Extended EASA" was carried out in 2005. During 2006 EASA itself will develop its opinion on the matter, having consulted in detail the stakeholders through their "Notice of Proposed Amendment" (NPA) procedure.
A legislative proposal on the matter is planned to be adopted by the Commission in early 2008.
4.2. Exploiting Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) for enhanced safety at airports
30. The EU has long invested in the development of satellite based navigation. Despite ICAO recommendations and the availability of certified airborne avionics, those systems are not widely exploited today. From a safety point of view, GNSS could offer one more source of position information. GNSS contributes to preventing "Controlled Flight into Terrain", which is still the most significant cause of fatal accidents, especially for the least sophisticated aircraft. GNSS could also allow more flexibility for approach and departure route design in order to avoid obstacles, reduce noise impact or allow safe operations of more closely spaced airports or runways.
The Commission will enable the certification of the EGNOS/Galileo signal in space, while including GNSS exploitation in the European Radio-Navigation Plan. A comprehensive inclusion of GNSS into ATM operational processes is expected from the SESAR programme which will provide benefits for the 'gate to gate' network.
5. Promote co-modality of transport modes
5.1. Improve airport access and co-modality
31. Air and rail transport should become more complementary. At least three interfaces between air and rail exist that each brings specific benefits to the society as a whole, and will also derive a positive impact on the environment :
32. Links to the city with the benefits of decongestion of road traffic and better air quality around airports;
33. Links to the region with the same benefits as above and the additional benefit of expansion of the airport's catchment area;
34. Link between the airport and major metropolitan areas through High Speed Rail with the same benefits as above and additional potential for short haul slots to be freed for long-haul flights, which for airports and air carriers represent higher slot productivity.
Conventional rail can play an important role and its development to connect secondary and regional airports should be encouraged through Member States and Community funding.
Stockholm Arlanda Airport (about 17 million passengers per year) has three underground rail stations. One is for long haul rail services and the other two situated at the two extremities of the airport are used by the Arlanda Express fast train. Arlanda Express connects the airport to the city 4-6 times an hour and covers the 45km trip in 20 minutes at speeds of up to 200km/h. If for any reason the train is more that two minutes late, passengers can ask for a full refund of the ticket. |
35. There is a need for efficient co-modal infrastructures and the improvement of the modal split for airport access. The Commission will give further attention and resources to the promotion and funding of inter-modal infrastructures. Such projects can be promoted through European Cohesion Policy and continue to be eligible for financing under the European Regional Development and Cohesion Funds.
Funding from the TEN-T and from the European Regional Development and Cohesion Funds for co-modality projects is still available for the period 2007-2013. The Commission also invites Member States to support the development of inter-modal inter-changes at airports (rail links to and railway stations at airports), which promote efficiency of both rail and air transport.
5.2. Air/Rail Inter-modality
36. The principal drivers for passengers when choosing a mode of transport are relatively stable and consistently important across Europe. Passengers will choose rail options when the time, fare, frequency, access etc. offer them an advantage, and choose air when that mode offers an advantage. Inter-modal development should therefore seek to work with and support passenger market choices. Factors such as information, ticketing, languages, service integration and other issues do play a part in further optimising the service.
The main reason to encourage rail as a complement for air should concentrate on improving the attraction of the rail product. This will encourage passengers to test the rail option for both point to point and transfer journeys. Given an increase in demand, many of the secondary issues will be resolved with further co-operation by operators and customer feedback. Air/Rail inter-modality cannot be considered as a primary way to decongest airports because in general the decongesting effect amounts to one or two years of air traffic growth. However, it is useful for achieving a greater efficiency of the transport system and of airports in particular. Moreover, the environmental burden on airports will be reduced. A conclusion of the Rail/Air Inter-modality Facilitation Forum that took place between September 2003 and June 2004 was that the absence of integrated air-rail tickets was seen as an obstacle to the further development of Air/Rail inter-modality in terms of services and passenger interest.
The Commission intends to encourage integrated air-rail ticketing and will publish a consultation paper on the issue in early 2007.
6. new airport infrastructure needs careful consideration
6.1. Improve the environmental capacity of airports (noise)
37. Sensitivity to aircraft noise is a major constraint to airport development. The total phase out of the noisiest older aircraft (the so-called Chapter 2 aircraft) from 1 April 2002 onwards represented a leap forward for the improvement of the noise climate around airports. However, in light of the expected growth of aviation activities this improvement may soon be eroded, Directive 2002/30/EC on noise restrictions makes it possible to phase out the noisiest "Chapter 3" aircraft, subject to a number of conditions which aim at the implementation of the so-called "balanced approach".
38. The Balanced Approach to Noise, agreed at the 2001 ICAO Assembly, provides ICAO Contracting States with an international approach to address aircraft noise problems at individual airports in an environmentally responsive and economically responsible way. It encompasses four principal elements:
39. Reduction of noise at source;
40. Land-use planning and management;
41. Noise abatement operational procedures;
42. Noise operating restrictions on aircraft.
43. Noise operating restrictions on aircraft should not be applied as a first resort, but only after consideration of the benefits to be gained from other elements. The Balanced Approach provides a framework for assessing, consulting and taking decisions which takes into account the views of all stakeholders.
44. The principles of the Balanced Approach to Noise have been incorporated in Community law[15].
A study was launched in 2006 to examine the implementation of the Directive and to analyse the changes that took place with regard to the noise levels at Community Airports since its entry into force.
When considering the balanced approach to noise, Member States should also have due regard to the provisions of the Ambient Noise Directive (2002/49/EC) which will be reviewed in 2009.
In 2007 a report on the implementation of the Directive will be prepared and the Commission will decide whether a proposal for amending the Directive is required.
6.2. Improve the planning framework for new airport infrastructure
45. There is considerable room for improvement in the land-use planning and management in the EU:
46. only a minority of Member States provide planning authorities and the public with airport plans containing information on long range projections concerning airport infrastructure, including areas affected by obstacle limitation and high noise levels;
47. only half of Member States integrate all the information on airports and the impact of their operations on the surrounding area;
48. publishing both long term airport plans and land-use plans as standard practice, would improve the accessibility and quality of information available to the public and would help to ensure that the public is properly informed.
49. Good land-use policies must also be viewed in the context of the balanced approach to noise and the possibilities offered by GNSS. Arrangements in place should be reviewed with the aim of ensuring that competent authorities are in receipt of long term airport plans and that such information is adequately co-ordinated with land-use planning.
50. With a view to promoting an efficient air transport system, information obtained from capacity calculation as well as land-use planning shall be taken into account when co-ordinating and assessing the regional or network capacity needs as a whole.
51. A simplification and acceleration of planning procedures requires co-operation amongst Member States and co-ordination between Member States and the Commission, in particular where projects of common European interest are concerned. Whilst maintaining the relevant standards and compliance with the relevant environmental legislation, including Environmental Impact Assessment and Strategic Environmental Assessment Guidelines, a time span of five years for planning, approval and construction should be targeted.
The Commission, together with experts from Member States and stakeholders, will seek to simplify procedures as well as develop a recommendation on best practice guidelines to promote improved co-ordination of airport plans and wider land-use plans.
52. The Commission through its Research Framework Programmes has funded a number of projects dealing with Advanced-Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems. These technologies have now reached a sufficient level of maturity. In addition, the programme has attained a global recognition and harmonisation through ICAO.
53. In particular, the surveillance and control part of the A-SMGCS concept can be very effective in all weather conditions to ensure the highest level of safety whilst supporting a continuous growth of aircraft movements.
A-SMGCS or Advanced-Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems is a system providing routing, guidance and surveillance for the control of aircraft and vehicles in order to maintain the declared surface movement rate under all weather conditions within the aerodrome visibility operational level whilst maintaining the required level of safety.
The surveillance and control functions have been tested and exploited to such an extent that the performance requirements are mature to be used as guidelines for the implementation of these two functions of an A-SMGCS system.
54. The SESAR programme will develop new technologies aiming at further increasing the safety and efficiency of airport operations. In particular:
55. New wake vortex prediction and detection devices will enable to safely reduce separation minima between aircraft;
56. New sensors will enable remote tower operations;
57. New generations of airports airside management tools will enable the optimisation of ground movements.
58. The development of a System Wide Information Management system will produce an air transport wide CDM, is expected to further increase the predictability and efficiency of aircraft and airport operations. Such increased operational efficiency will also result in obtaining environmental benefits.
59. Technologies such as Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFID) that raise the internal logistical efficiency of airports could also contribute to overcoming congestion. At congested airports any departure delays can have serious consequences on slot and flight planning.
New technologies such as radio tagging of boarding cards and baggage could significantly reduce the 10% of aircraft delays attributable to passengers not presenting themselves for boarding[16]. The system would enable passengers to be located or if necessary have their hold baggage identified and removed more efficiently.
However, such technologies would only be fully effective if common interoperability standards on Radio Tags, as well as a common legal framework for the protection of passenger information[17] are achieved at international level.
Mature technologies such as A-SMGCS surveillance and control functions should be implemented throughout European airports. The SESAR programme will further develop new tools and systems that will significantly increase airport capacity.
61. All actors should collaborate to meet the challenge to further build a more efficient, safe and environmentally sound air transport system in Europe that complies with the ambitious goals of the Lisbon strategy.

VMware Images:
The Perfect Server - CentOS 5.5 x86_64 [ISPConfig 2] - Page 6
12 Apache2 With PHP, Ruby, Python, WebDAVNow we install Apache with PHP (this is PHP 5.1.6): yum install php php-devel php-gd php-imap php-ldap php-mysql php-odbc php-pear php-xml php-xmlrpc curl curl-devel perl-libwww-perl ImageMagick libxml2 libxml2-devel Then edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and change DirectoryIndex to
Now configure your system to start Apache at boot time: chkconfig --levels 235 httpd on Start Apache: /etc/init.d/httpd start 12.1 Disable PHP Globally(If you do not plan to install ISPConfig on this server, please skip this section!) In ISPConfig you will configure PHP on a per-website basis, i.e. you can specify which website can run PHP scripts and which one cannot. This can only work if PHP is disabled globally because otherwise all websites would be able to run PHP scripts, no matter what you specify in ISPConfig. To disable PHP globally, we edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf and comment out the AddHandler and AddType lines: vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf
Afterwards we restart Apache: /etc/init.d/httpd restart 12.2 Installing mod_rubyFor CentOS 5.5, there's no mod_ruby package available, so we must compile it ourselves. First we install some prerequisites: yum install httpd-devel ruby ruby-devel Next we download and install mod_ruby as follows: cd /tmp Finally we must add the mod_ruby module to the Apache configuration, so we create the file /etc/httpd/conf.d/ruby.conf... vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/ruby.conf
... and restart Apache: /etc/init.d/httpd restart 12.3 Installing mod_pythonTo install mod_python, we simply run... yum install mod_python ... and restart Apache afterwards: /etc/init.d/httpd restart 12.4 WebDAVWebDAV should already be enabled, but to check this, open /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and make sure that the following two modules are active: vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
If you have to modify /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, don't forget to restart Apache afterwards: /etc/init.d/httpd restart 13 ProFTPdISPConfig has better support for proftpd than vsftpd, so let's remove vsftpd: yum remove vsftpd Because CentOS has no proftpd package, we have to compile Proftpd manually: cd /tmp/ The proftpd binary gets installed in /usr/local/sbin, but we need it in /usr/sbin, so we create a symlink: ln -s /usr/local/sbin/proftpd /usr/sbin/proftpd Now create the init script /etc/init.d/proftpd: vi /etc/init.d/proftpd
Then we make the init script executable: chmod 755 /etc/init.d/proftpd Next we open /etc/proftpd.conf and change Group to nobody: vi /etc/proftpd.conf
For security reasons you can also add the following lines to /etc/proftpd.conf (thanks to Reinaldo Carvalho; more information can be found here: http://proftpd.org/localsite/Userguide/linked/userguide.html): vi /etc/proftpd.conf
To make sure that FTP users can use the chmod command, comment out the <Limit SITE_CHMOD> section:
Now we can create the system startup links for Proftpd: chkconfig --levels 235 proftpd on And finally we start Proftpd: /etc/init.d/proftpd start

A real tentpole of Dell's new focus on high-end design, the Adamo XPS is an innovative take on the super-thin laptop. With a large lid that raises the keyboard to aid typing when it's opened, it's certainly a conversation piece. But is it worth the trade-off in battery life and price? Read more

Raleigh >
Food & Dining > Michael Deans Seafood Restaurant & Oyster Bar6004 Falls of The Neuse Rd, Raleigh, NC | Directions
Mon-Thu 5pm-10pm
Fri-Sat 5pm-2am
Sun 4pm-9pm
Neighborhoods: North
A Place For Every Occasion – I love Michael Deans because it is, in general, a crowd pleaser. I have taken everyone from business clients and colleagues to my mother-in-law to this establishment, and am never disappointed in the food or service, regardless of the occasion.
This place is overrated – Go somewhere else
Did anyone else get food poisoning from eating the oysters ? – After eating at Michael Deans had to check into ER for "severe gastric disturbance." Anyone else have this happen?
Great food & atmosphere – My family has been going to Michael Deans for years. We go for birthday's, buy gift cards for Christmas, it's always been a consistant and nice place to go for a good dinner.
They have wonderful seafood and salad. I usually get a salad (they are huge) and nice glass of wine. If I go for an entre', I like the fish with garlic mashed potatoes as a side.
The Key Lime Pie is awesome, as are their chocolate desserts but it was the bread pudding that surprised me the most. That name "bread pudding" never sounded very appealing to me, but when my friend ordered it, I ended up eating half! It was so good!
I noticed another review where they didn't like the meal and were given a chance to try it again. Really, if you have any issues, let the management know as they are very concerned for their customers and want people to enjoy their meals.
I highly recommend Michael Deans. I can't wait to try the brunch some weekend!
Disappointed with service – My husband I have been a frequent customer for the past 5 years. Always happy with the service and food. This past year the service has been getting worse with each visit no matter which night of the week. The wait staff seems to be inexperienced and often forget to place our orders. They are not as attentive and pay attention to details as they used to be. We have waited 20 minutes before our drink order comes and 30 minutes before the appetizer arrives. The food is still good, but more often than not the poor service has ruined the dining out experience
Response to UNC1995 – Comparing Michael Deans to Ruby Tuesday and Chilis Restaurant is like comparing a mojito that is made using fresh mint leaves, puerto rican rum, ripe limes, sweet liquer (making sure not too tart) VS taking cheap rum, tossing a lime wedge or slice, and adding a mojito mix. I like Ruby Tuesday and chilis, but the atmosphere is different at Michael Deans---you get what you pay for. I used to work at Darryl's 1914 in Fay, Nc and had the pleasure of Dean Ogan as General Manager. He stressed the importance of "plate presentations", ensuring that guest were "repeat-guest", and insisted the staff be knowledgable of the menu, the micro-brews, imports, and wine selections--not just the servers and bar staff, but the host/hostess as well.
If you had alerted any dissatification to him or management, you would have been taken care of!
Trey Previtte
You MUST dine at Michael Deans! – I highly recommend this restaurant. Tthe spinach and artichoke dip with tomato basil crisp bread is the best. We coupled our dinner with La Terre Merlot. Unpretentious, beautiful atmosphere and the food is absolutely second to none. Anthony is a fantastic waiter! The service was perfect. Thanks so much for an awesome experience. We will definitely return over and over again!
Great place for a drink and appetizers – I recently went to Michael Dean?s with some co-workers after work the other day and had a great time. They had buy one get one free appetizers so we ordered the calamari and crab cakes (which with both really good) and we enjoyed a really nice bottle of wine. If you are looking for some where to grab a drink, get great appetizers all for a good price ? I would recommend this place.
Michael Dean's karaoke night – A group of my girlfriends and I were trying to find an entertaining place to go out on a Saturday night in North Raleigh. We decided to try Michael Dean?s karaoke night. We had such a good time. The crowd was great and the bartenders were fast and friendly. I would recommend Michael Dean?s karaoke night to anyone who is looking for a great Saturday night out!
Overpriced, under seasoned and pretty awful... – So I went here with my wife for an anniversary dinner, we started with an oyster sampler. They were clear and clean looking, they tasted fresh however the cocktail sauce was lacking and the horseradish was inadequate as well, dry and tasteless. I had the shrimp with grits which sat too long and the gravy had gained a skin. The gravy tasted like franco american canned, the serving size was also small. It has about 5 shrimp. My wife had the salmon which was dry. The dessert of creme brulee had no crispy sugar top it was more of a custard. The only saving grace was the server was nice. Lousy food and overpriced.
Pats fan-
I truly do apologize for what seems to have been a poor effort on our behalf. I have spoken with our chef in regards to these issues and we will certainly address them immediately. I certainly wish you had said something while visiting. It always surprises me when our guests receive a product they believe is poor quality and don?t bring it to our attention while still paying! We know the guest is always right and value the opportunity to correct any quality or service issues (although I think the ?Franco American? comment was a touch severe, Michael Dean's Shrimp and Grits is a very popular item that has been well received without issues for 10 years). I hope you will give us another chance realizing the issues on your visit were the exception and not the rule.

I had the same problem with my 2001 fiesta. I've just replaced the heater control valve and it's now working a treat!hi, i have a 2001 mk5 ford fiesta and when i set the blower to hot it still blows cold air i could probably drive to the moon and back and still have cold air any suggestions
Posted 24 November 2008 - 10:05 PM
if its not working,it will remain silent....easy job to replace.
Posted 25 November 2008 - 02:05 AM
Check the coonalt system for any leaks + oil in the system
Check the system for any air locks
Check the head gasket to see if it is gone or on the way out
Check the heater control valve to see if it is faulty
If you have checked all of these there is only 1 possibility:
The only possibility i can think of is that the heater matrix has gone, it doesnt usually go but it sometimes happens. Its worth buying a new one, as they come with warranty and a second hand one will probably go again.
Posted 04 December 2008 - 04:16 PM
I have a 2001 1.8 TDI (Endure DI) - Can someone tell me if the coolant pipe from the top of the engine goes into the Control valve side with the motor on it (right side if you look at it from the front of the car) and the other pipe from the oil cooler then goes into the control valve with no motor on it (left if you are in front of the car looking at it.) I cannot find any pictures of this anywhere and I do not know anyone with the same car to check...!
thanks in advance,
Posted 04 December 2008 - 08:32 PM
This has happened to mine twice, both times just as the winter weather is kicking in. Once its had been cleaned, it worked fine.
