With the rainy season ahead of us, road conditions are wet and fallen dead leaves, or twig, fruit can be a cause of your spill. So even MORE you have to be guarded with safety gear (Bike helmet and brightly coloured raincoat) has to be considered.
Even motor vehicles have poorer visibility ( see pictures of view from the inside of the car) can be highly dangerous when the roads are wet. Wet weather radically alters the conditions for the bike rider, meaning the cycling techniques employed in dry conditions have to be adjusted accordingly.
Wet weather leads to a soggy and cold ride, there is also a significant effect on a bike's tires, brakes and also on a cyclist's visibility and braking distances. Here are things to bear in mind if you plan to ride in the rain.
Bicycle tires
Rain affects the grip of tires on the road so it is necessary to reduce speeds. No amount of tread design will help you grab traction over steel plates that you see often on our roads where construction takes place if you do a hard brake on wet steel plates. So please make sure that you hold steady you ride and ride upright and alert.
Bike brakes
Wet bicycle brake pads are less effective. To keep the brakes in a condition where they will produce some braking even when wet, it is best to keep some light pressure on the brake pads. The pads rubbing against the wheel rims wipes away the water so they can respond when pressed.
Cycling visibility
In heavy rain, visibility typically will be poor, with water running into the eyes and spray coming up from other vehicles or cyclists. Glasses with clear or yellow lenses produce the best visibility in heavy rain. Also it is best to make yourself visible to others with a brightly coloured rain jacket and switch on your lights.Whatever you decide on your cycling jacket needs to be water resistant and breathable.
Cycling in groups
When riding with others, keep a longer distance away from the front rider as this throws up spray and grit. Also, stopping distances will be affected in the wet so it is best to keep a safe distance apart to avoid collisions.
Cornering on your bicycle in the wet
When cornering, it is best to keep the cycle more upright than in dry conditions.
Cycling is a sport that one has to be safe and know what you are doing. Helmets are a must even at low speeds and we always tell everyone – get a helmet, its not always about you falling down but you never know who might just ramp you from behind or from the side. Many studies have proven ( see this one done in Australia http://ors.wa.gov.au/Documents/Cycling-Safety-Forum/cyclists-forum1-haworth.aspx , 69% reduction in head/brain injuries and 65% reduction in facial injuries for cyclists involved in accidents
Many people even tell us – "I ride very slow". Even at low speeds of 15-18 km/h, worst when you come downhill, hitting anything at 30km/h will result in serious injuries. See research done on this http://bmj-injuryprev.highwire.org/content/3/2/110.full.pdf Authors gave a questionnaire to 3,390 bicycle riders who had attended a hospital emergency department in the Seattle area. They found that cyclists involved in a crash at a speed greater than 15 miles per hour were 1.4 times as likely to have a "severe" injury (defined as an injury severity score greater than 8) as cyclists involved in a crash at a speed of 15 miles per hour or less (15 mph = 24 km/h).
But always after the rain, the sun and dry weather will return..so ride safe!

Council conclusions of 12 May 2009 on a strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training ( ET 2020 )
Official Journal C 119 , 28/05/2009 P. 0002 - 0010
Council conclusions of 12 May 2009 on a strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training ("ET 2020") 2009/C 119/02 THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, RECALLING the endorsement by the March 2002 Barcelona European Council of the "Education and Training 2010" work programme which — in the context of the Lisbon Strategy — established for the first time a solid framework for European cooperation in the field of education and training, based on common objectives and aimed primarily at supporting the improvement of national education and training systems through the development of complementary EU-level tools, mutual learning and the exchange of good practice via the open method of coordination, and ACKNOWLEDGING that cooperation under the aforementioned work programme, including the Copenhagen process and initiatives in the context of the Bologna process, have led to significant progress being made — notably in support of national reforms of lifelong learning, the modernisation of higher education and the development of common European instruments promoting quality, transparency and mobility — but that substantial challenges still remain, if Europe is to achieve its ambition to become the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world, EMPHASISES that: 1. Education and training have a crucial role to play in meeting the many socio-economic, demographic, environmental and technological challenges facing Europe and its citizens today and in the years ahead. 2. Efficient investment in human capital through education and training systems is an essential component of Europe's strategy to deliver the high levels of sustainable, knowledge-based growth and jobs that lie at the heart of the Lisbon strategy, at the same time as promoting personal fulfilment, social cohesion and active citizenship, RECOGNISES that: 1. While valuing European diversity and the unique opportunities which this affords, and while fully respecting the Member States' responsibility for their education systems, an updated strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training — building on the progress made under the "Education and Training 2010" work programme — could further enhance the efficiency of such cooperation and provide continuing benefits and support for Member States' education and training systems up to the year 2020. 2. Education and training have made a substantial contribution towards achieving the long-term goals of the Lisbon strategy for growth and jobs. In anticipation of future developments with this process, efforts should therefore be maintained to ensure that education and training remain firmly anchored in the broader strategy. It is also essential that the framework for European cooperation should remain flexible enough to respond to both current and future challenges, including those arising under any new strategy after 2010, NOTES WITH INTEREST the communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on "An updated strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training" [1]. AGREES that: 1. In the period up to 2020, the primary goal of European cooperation should be to support the further development of education and training systems in the Member States which are aimed at ensuring: (a) the personal, social and professional fulfilment of all citizens; (b) sustainable economic prosperity and employability, whilst promoting democratic values, social cohesion, active citizenship, and intercultural dialogue. 2. Such aims should be viewed in a worldwide perspective. Member States acknowledge the importance of openness to the world at large as a prerequisite for the global development and prosperity which — through the provision of excellent and attractive education, training and research opportunities — will help the European Union achieve its objective of becoming a world-leading knowledge economy. 3. European cooperation in education and training for the period up to 2020 should be established in the context of a strategic framework spanning education and training systems as a whole in a lifelong learning perspective. Indeed, lifelong learning should be regarded as a fundamental principle underpinning the entire framework, which is designed to cover learning in all contexts — whether formal, non-formal or informal — and at all levels: from early childhood education and schools through to higher education, vocational education and training and adult learning. Specifically, the framework should address the following four strategic objectives (detailed further below): 1. Making lifelong learning and mobility a reality; 2. Improving the quality and efficiency of education and training; 3. Promoting equity, social cohesion and active citizenship; 4. Enhancing creativity and innovation, including entrepreneurship, at all levels of education and training. 4. The periodic monitoring of progress towards a set objective provides an essential contribution towards evidence-based policy making. The strategic objectives outlined above should accordingly be accompanied during the period 2010-2020 by indicators and by reference levels for European average performance ("European benchmarks"), as set out in Annex I to this document. Building on the existing benchmarks, these will help to measure at European level the overall progress made and to show what has been achieved. Strategic objective 1: Making lifelong learning and mobility a reality The challenges posed by demographic change and the regular need to update and develop skills in line with changing economic and social circumstances call for a lifelong approach to learning and for education and training systems which are more responsive to change and more open to the wider world. While new initiatives in the field of lifelong learning may be developed to reflect future challenges, further progress with ongoing initiatives is still required, especially in implementing coherent and comprehensive lifelong learning strategies. In particular, work is needed to ensure the development of national qualifications frameworks based on relevant learning outcomes and their link to the European Qualifications Framework, the establishment of more flexible learning pathways — including better transitions between the various education and training sectors, greater openness towards non-formal and informal learning, and increased transparency and recognition of learning outcomes. Further efforts are also required to promote adult learning, to increase the quality of guidance systems, and to make learning more attractive in general — including through the development of new forms of learning and the use of new teaching and learning technologies. As an essential element of lifelong learning and an important means of enhancing people's employability and adaptability, mobility for learners, teachers and teacher trainers should be gradually expanded with a view to making periods of learning abroad — both within Europe and the wider world — the rule rather than the exception. In so doing, the principles laid down in the European Quality Charter for Mobility should be applied. To achieve this will require renewed efforts on the part of all concerned, for instance with regard to securing adequate funding. Strategic objective 2: Improving the quality and efficiency of education and training High quality education and training systems which are both efficient and equitable are crucial for Europe's success and for enhancing employability. The major challenge is to ensure the acquisition of key competences by everyone, while developing the excellence and attractiveness at all levels of education and training that will allow Europe to retain a strong global role. To achieve this on a sustainable basis, greater attention needs to be paid to raising the level of basic skills such as literacy and numeracy, making mathematics, science and technology more attractive and to strengthening linguistic competences. At the same time, there is a need to ensure high quality teaching, to provide adequate initial teacher education, continuous professional development for teachers and trainers, and to make teaching an attractive career-choice. It is also important to improve the governance and leadership of education and training institutions, and to develop effective quality assurance systems. High quality will only be achieved through the efficient and sustainable use of resources — both public and private, as appropriate — and through the promotion of evidence-based policy and practice in education and training. Strategic objective 3: Promoting equity, social cohesion and active citizenship Education and training policy should enable all citizens, irrespective of their personal, social or economic circumstances, to acquire, update and develop over a lifetime both job-specific skills and the key competences needed for their employability and to foster further learning, active citizenship and intercultural dialogue. Educational disadvantage should be addressed by providing high quality early childhood education and targeted support, and by promoting inclusive education. Education and training systems should aim to ensure that all learners — including those from disadvantaged backgrounds, those with special needs and migrants — complete their education, including, where appropriate, through second-chance education and the provision of more personalised learning. Education should promote intercultural competences, democratic values and respect for fundamental rights and the environment, as well as combat all forms of discrimination, equipping all young people to interact positively with their peers from diverse backgrounds. Strategic objective 4: Enhancing creativity and innovation, including entrepreneurship, at all levels of education and training As well as engendering personal fulfilment, creativity constitutes a prime source of innovation, which in turn is acknowledged as one of the key drivers of sustainable economic development. Creativity and innovation are crucial to enterprise development and to Europe's ability to compete internationally. A first challenge is to promote the acquisition by all citizens of transversal key competences such as digital competence, learning to learn, a sense of initiative and entrepreneurship, and cultural awareness. A second challenge is to ensure a fully functioning knowledge triangle of education-research-innovation. Partnership between the world of enterprise and different levels and sectors of education, training and research can help to ensure a better focus on the skills and competences required in the labour market and on fostering innovation and entrepreneurship in all forms of learning. Broader learning communities, involving representatives of civil society and other stakeholders, should be promoted with a view to creating a climate conducive to creativity and better reconciling professional and social needs, as well as individual well-being, FURTHER AGREES that: 1. In endeavouring to achieve the above strategic objectives and thereby ensure an effective contribution to national reforms, the following principles should be observed in the period up to 2020: (a) European cooperation in education and training should be implemented in a lifelong learning perspective making effective use of the open method of coordination (OMC) and developing synergies between the different education and training sectors. While fully respecting Member States' responsibility for their educational systems and the voluntary nature of European cooperation in education and training, the OMC should draw on: - the four strategic objectives for European cooperation outlined above, - common reference tools and approaches, - peer learning and the exchange of good practice, including the dissemination of outcomes, - periodic monitoring and reporting, - evidence and data from all relevant European agencies [2], European networks, and international organisations [3], - making full use of the opportunities available under Community programmes, particularly in the field of lifelong learning. (b) European cooperation in education and training should be pertinent and concrete. It should produce clear and visible outcomes which should be presented, reviewed and disseminated on a regular basis and in a structured manner, thereby establishing a basis for continuous evaluation and development. (c) The Copenhagen process in the field of vocational education and training is an important aspect of European cooperation under the open method of coordination. The aims and priorities pursued under this process should contribute to achieving the objectives set out in this framework. (d) In order to support Member States' efforts to modernise higher education and develop a European Higher Education Area, close synergy with the Bologna process should also be aimed for, in particular with regard to quality assurance, recognition, mobility and transparency instruments. (e) Where relevant, cross-sectoral cooperation should be sought between EU initiatives in education and training and those in related policy areas — particularly employment, enterprise, social policy, youth policy and culture. With specific regard to the knowledge triangle, special attention should be paid to the synergies between education, research and innovation, as well as to complementarity with the aims of the European Research Area. (f) Well-functioning cooperation using new, transparent ways of networking is needed not only between the relevant EU institutions, but also with all relevant stakeholders, who have a considerable contribution to make in terms of policy development, implementation and evaluation. (g) Policy dialogue with third countries and cooperation with international organisations should be reinforced, thereby providing a source of fresh ideas and comparison. (h) Where appropriate, financial resources from the European Structural Funds may be used to enhance education and training systems in accordance with the overall strategic objectives and Member States' priorities. 2. The success of the open method of coordination in education and training depends on the political commitment of Member States and on effective working methods at European level. From this perspective, and with a view to greater flexibility, the working methods used in the context of European cooperation should be based on the following: (a) Work cycles: the period up to 2020 will be divided up into a series of cycles, with the first cycle covering the 3 years from 2009 to 2011. (b) Priority areas: for each cycle, a number of priority areas for European cooperation based on the strategic objectives will be adopted by the Council on the basis of a Commission proposal. The European priority areas will be designed to allow either for broad cooperation between all the Member States or for closer cooperation between a more limited number of Member States, in accordance with national priorities. The priority areas for the first cycle under this new framework are set out in Annex II hereto. (c) Mutual learning: European cooperation in the aforementioned priority areas can be carried out by such means as peer learning activities, conferences and seminars, high level fora or expert groups, panels, studies and analyses and web-based cooperation and, where appropriate, with the involvement of relevant stakeholders. All of these initiatives should be developed on the basis of clear mandates, time schedules and planned outputs to be proposed by the Commission in cooperation with the Member States (see also paragraph (f) below). (d) Dissemination of results: to enhance visibility and impact at national and European level, the outcomes of cooperation will be widely disseminated among all relevant stakeholders and, where appropriate, discussed at the level of Directors-General or Ministers. (e) Progress reporting: at the end of each cycle — and in the case of the first under the new framework, no earlier than the beginning of 2012 — a joint Council-Commission report should be drawn up. This will evaluate the overall progress in achieving the objectives under this framework during the most recent cycle and/or in a particular thematic area which would be defined by the Commission in cooperation with the Member States (see also paragraph (f) below). Joint reports should be based on national reports drawn up by the Member States, as well as on existing information and statistical data. The joint reports may be developed to include factual analyses of the different situations in individual Member States, with their full agreement. The joint reports should also serve as the basis for establishing a fresh set of priority areas for the following cycle. (f) Monitoring of the process: to promote the delivery of results through the open method of coordination as well as ownership of the method at both national and European level, the Member States and the Commission will work closely together in steering, taking forward and evaluating the process and its outcomes. 3. The strategic framework — including benchmarks and working methods — may be reviewed and any necessary adjustments made by the Council in the light of any major new developments in Europe, particularly decisions taken on the EU strategy for growth and jobs beyond 2010, ACCORDINGLY INVITES THE MEMBER STATES to: 1. Work together, with the support of the Commission and using the open method of coordination as outlined in these conclusions, to enhance European cooperation in education and training in the period up to 2020 on the basis of the four strategic objectives, the principles and working methods described above, and of the priority areas agreed for each cycle (those for the first cycle 2009-2011 being outlined in Annex II hereto). 2. Consider, on the basis of national priorities, the adoption of measures at national level aimed at achieving the objectives outlined in the strategic framework and contributing to the collective achievement of the European benchmarks identified in Annex I hereto. Further consider whether inspiration can be drawn from mutual learning at European level, when devising national education and training policies, INVITES THE COMMISSION to: 1. Work with and support the Member States — during the period up to 2020 — in cooperating within this framework on the basis of the four strategic objectives, the principles and working methods described above, and the benchmarks and agreed priority areas outlined respectively in Annexes I and II hereto. 2. Examine, in particular through the joint progress reports, the degree to which the objectives of this framework have been met. In addition, conduct an evaluation during 2010 of the progress made in achieving the benchmarks adopted under the "Education and Training 2010" work programme. 3. Conduct work on proposals for possible benchmarks in the areas of mobility, employability and language learning, as indicated in Annex I hereto. 4. Work with the Member States to examine how to improve existing indicators, including those on early leavers from education and training, and report back to the Council by the end of 2010 on the extent to which the coherent framework of indicators and benchmarks adopted by the Council in May 2007 [4] might be adjusted, so as to ensure its coherence with the strategic objectives under this framework. In this context, special attention should be paid to the areas of creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. [1] Doc. 17535/08 + ADD 1 + ADD 2. [2] In particular, Cedefop and the European Training Foundation. [3] Whenever reference to the OECD is made or implied in this text, it is to be understood that the right of participation of all Member States in the work of that organisation should be ensured. [4] Council conclusions of 25 May 2007 on a coherent framework of indicators and benchmarks for monitoring progress towards the Lisbon objectives in education and training (OJ C 311, 21.12.2007, pp. 13-15). -------------------------------------------------- ANNEX I REFERENCE LEVELS OF EUROPEAN AVERAGE PERFORMANCE ("European benchmarks") As a means of monitoring progress and identifying challenges, as well as contributing to evidence-based policy making, a series of reference levels of European average performance ("European benchmarks") should support the strategic objectives outlined in the above conclusions for the period 2010-2020. These benchmarks build on the existing ones [1] adopted under the "Education and Training 2010" work programme. They should be based solely on comparable data and take account of the differing situations in individual Member States. They should not be considered as concrete targets for individual countries to reach by 2020. Rather, Member States are invited to consider, on the basis of national priorities and whilst taking account of changing economic circumstances, how and to what extent they can contribute to the collective achievement of the European benchmarks through national actions. On this basis, the Member States agree to the following five benchmarks: Adult participation in lifelong learning With a view to increasing the participation of adults in lifelong learning, particularly that of the low-skilled: - By 2020, an average of at least 15 % of adults should participate in lifelong learning [2]. Low achievers in basic skills With a view to ensuring that all learners attain an adequate level of basic skills, especially in reading, mathematics and science: - By 2020, the share of low-achieving 15-years olds in reading, mathematics and science [3] should be less than 15 %. Tertiary level attainment Given the increasing demand for higher education attainment, and whilst acknowledging the equal importance of vocational education and training: - By 2020, the share of 30-34 year olds with tertiary educational attainment [4] should be at least 40 %. Early leavers from education and training As a contribution to ensuring that a maximum number of learners complete their education and training: - By 2020, the share of early leavers from education and training [5] should be less than 10 %. Early childhood education With a view to increasing participation in early childhood education as a foundation for later educational success, especially in the case of those from disadvantaged backgrounds: - By 2020, at least 95 % of children between 4 years old and the age for starting compulsory primary education should participate in early childhood education. In addition, the Council invites the Commission to work further in the following areas: Mobility Given the widely acknowledged added value of learning mobility, and with a view to increasing such mobility, the Commission is invited to submit to the Council a proposal for a benchmark in this area by the end 2010, focusing initially on physical mobility between countries in the field of higher education, taking both quantitative and qualitative aspects into account and reflecting the efforts made and the objectives agreed within the Bologna process, as highlighted most recently at the Leuven and Louvain-la-Neuve conference [6]. At the same time, the Commission is invited to study the possibility of extending such a benchmark to include vocational education and training and teacher mobility. Employability Given the importance of enhancing employability through education and training in order to meet current and future labour market challenges, the Commission is invited to submit to the Council a proposal for a possible European benchmark in this area by the end of 2010. Language learning In view of the importance of learning two foreign languages from an early age, as highlighted in the March 2002 Barcelona European Council conclusions, the Commission is invited to submit to the Council — by the end of 2012 — a proposal for a possible benchmark in this area, based on the ongoing work on language competences [7].

[5] i.e. The share of the population aged 18-24 with only lower secondary education or less and no longer in education or training (EUROSTAT/Labour Force Survey). Efforts should be made to improve the quality of data, including by examining the feasibility of using additional data sources.

The priority areas, as referred to in paragraphs 2(b) and 2(c) in the "further agrees" section above and detailed below, reflect the need to: (i) pursue cooperation in areas where key challenges remain; (ii) develop cooperation in areas regarded as particularly important during this particular work cycle. Member States will select, in accordance with national priorities, those areas of work and cooperation in which they wish to participate in joint follow-up work. If Member States deem necessary, the work on specific priority areas can continue in subsequent work cycles. Strategic objective 1: Making lifelong learning and mobility a reality Pursue work on: — Lifelong learning strategies : Complete the process of implementation of national lifelong learning strategies, paying particular attention to the validation of non-formal and informal learning and guidance. — European Qualifications Framework : In accordance with the April 2008 Recommendation of the European Parliament and of the Council [1], relate all national qualifications systems to the EQF by 2010, and support the use of an approach based on learning outcomes for standards and qualifications, assessment and validation procedures, credit transfer, curricula and quality assurance. Develop cooperation on: — Expanding learning mobility : Work together to gradually eliminate barriers and to expand opportunities for learning mobility within Europe and worldwide, both for higher and other levels of education, including new objectives and financing instruments, and whilst taking into consideration the particular needs of disadvantaged persons. Strategic objective 2: Improving the quality and efficiency of education and training Pursue work on: — Language learning : To enable citizens to communicate in two languages in addition to their mother tongue, promote language teaching, where relevant, in VET and for adult learners, and provide migrants with opportunities to learn the language of the host country. — Professional development of teachers and trainers : Focus on the quality of initial education and early career support for new teachers and on raising the quality of continuing professional development opportunities for teachers, trainers and other educational staff (e.g. those involved in leadership or guidance activities). — Governance and funding : Promote the modernisation agenda for higher education (including curricula) and the quality assurance framework for VET, and develop the quality of provision, including staffing, in the adult learning sector. Promote evidence-based policy and practice, placing particular emphasis on establishing the case for sustainability of public and, where appropriate, private investment. Develop cooperation on: — Basic skills in reading, mathematics and science : Investigate and disseminate existing good practice and research findings on reading performance among school pupils and draw conclusions on ways of improving literacy levels across the EU. Intensify existing cooperation to improve the take-up of maths and science at higher levels of education and training, and to strengthen science teaching. Concrete action is needed to improve the level of basic skills, including those of adults. — "New Skills for New Jobs" : Ensure that the assessment of future skill requirements and the matching of labour market needs are adequately taken on board in education and training planning processes. Strategic objective 3: Promoting equity, social cohesion and active citizenship Pursue work on: — Early leavers from education and training : Strengthen preventive approaches, build closer cooperation between general and vocational education sectors and remove barriers for drop-outs to return to education and training. Develop cooperation on: — Pre-primary education : Promote generalised equitable access and reinforce the quality of provision and teacher support. — Migrants : Develop mutual learning on best practices for the education of learners from migrant backgrounds. — Learners with special needs : Promote inclusive education and personalised learning through timely support, the early identification of special needs and well-coordinated services. Integrate services within mainstream schooling and ensure pathways to further education and training. Strategic objective 4: Enhancing innovation and creativity, including entrepreneurship, at all levels of education and training Pursue work on: — Transversal key competences : In accordance with the December 2006 Recommendation of the European Parliament and of the Council [2], take greater account of transversal key competences in curricula, assessment and qualifications. Develop cooperation on: — Innovation-friendly institutions : Promote creativity and innovation by developing specific teaching and learning methods (including the use of new ICT tools and teacher training). — Partnership : Develop partnerships between education and training providers and businesses, research institutions, cultural actors and creative industries, and promote a well-functioning knowledge triangle.

"If he were" is more formal.
In today's San Jose Mercury News:

What is the difference between "If he were" and "If he was," as in the above sentence?

You are here:
Imagine receiving the results of a hospital scan on a letter you can't read, a final demand for payment of a bill you haven't seen or trying to decipher the dosage for your medicine.
Blind and partially sighted people should not have to ask others to read them information that they would prefer to keep private - but many have no choice.
Imagine the embarrassment of having to rely on others, simply because the information is not accessible to you. Imagine the frustration and angst caused by unnecessary worry.
The depressing reality for nearly two million people with significant sight problems is that inaccessible information has a devastating impact on their health and sense of security.
RNIB's services help the health industry to make information accessible to blind and partially sighted patients. Patients can call RNIB's Medicine Leaflet Line to receive information in accessible formats, thanks to the X-PIL service that we have developed with industry.
We are campaigning for the NHS to stop giving blind and partially sighted people their health information in ordinary print - and we are seeing results.
We promote the Equality Act so blind and partially sighted people can get the information they need, and help blind and partially sighted people to know their legal rights and obtain the information they are legally entitled to.
If you are a health service or local authority, get in touch to see how we can help you meet blind and partially sighted patients' needs.
Our Losing Patients campaign is empowering blind and partially sighted people to get accessible health information from the NHS. Take action now!
RNIB does not receive any government funding and we rely on charitable donations from individuals and organisations. To help us support more blind and partially sighted people, donate now.
Read our 2011 Lost for words report, with the latest statistics and stories about sight loss and reading.
"I have never had a letter from any official body in braille, be it doctors, local council or anyone." - Richard, 39, Middlesbrough.
Last updated: 2 November 2011
Right now we can only reach one in three of the people who need our help most. Please make a donation and help us support more blind and partially sighted people.
"The NHS don't send my appointment letters in braille, even though I've asked them to." - Holly, 17, York
One in five people aged 75 and over are living with sight loss.

"A fundamental part of Lincoln's moral compass was his opposition to slavery. But it took him a long time to embrace black people. We were raised with a fairy tale representation that because he hated slavery, he loved the slaves. He didn't. He was a recovering racist. He used to use the N word. He told darky jokes. He resisted abolition as long as he could. But in the end, he was on an upward arc, one that was quite noble."
- historian Henry Louis Gates Jr. on Abraham Lincoln's complex feelings toward Black people

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Yesterday evening, Saks Fifth Avenue threw a party celebrating the third season of the hit show Scandal and also unveiled window displays modeled after Kerry Washington's character, Olivia Pope. Apparently the actress and Scandal's costume designer, Lyn Paolo, were up late Tuesday night adding some finishing touches to the windows. "My flight landed in New York at 1 a.m., and I hopped in the car and told my driver, 'Take me to Saks!'" Washington told Style.com. "It's closed,' he told me, and I said, 'I know, but we need to go there right now!' We were running all over Fifth Avenue comparing our window to other windows." Although they admitted the Saks visuals team was phenomenal, both Washington and Paolo said they just had a much more particular vision of how Pope dresses, hence the middle-of-the-night switcheroo.
It was an anecdote that the show's creator, Shonda Rhimes, found particularly humorous, although she confessed that she's not quite as type A as Washington and Paolo when it comes to fashion sense. "I'm a person who would be wearing pajamas every day if you let me. I knew when we were doing Washington, D.C., that I wanted to make [the city] a bit more fashionable than it actually is. That's why I hired Lyn—she is just so good at what she does."

Riley, black legislative leaders reach compromise
By Alabama Public Radio
Montgomery, AL – Governor Riley has reached a compromise on the issue of restoring voting rights to felons. The House Government Finance and Appropriations Committee approved a bill today that would allow felons who have completed their sentences and paid their fines or restitution to apply for voting rights restoration. The governor reached the agreement with several black legislators who have been pushing a proposal that would streamline such efforts for certain felons. The bill also would expand the number of seats on the state parole board from three to seven. It would also create about 100 new parole officer positions. The governor says an efficient parole process will help reduce the state prison population of non-violent criminals.

The trick to flying, he said, is to understand the plane's movements at each point in the sky. The direction the plane turns changes constantly relative to the person standing on the ground holding the remote.
For a pilot in a real airplane, left is left and right is right. For a radio-controlled model, it's not so simple.
"If you think about left and right, you'll get upside-down in a heartbeat," Spencer said.
After about 10 minutes, Spencer and Withrow circled their planes around the field and started their landings.
Spencer's plane descended slowly, and gently dropped into the snow. It skidded a few feet and stopped. Its engine whirred a few seconds before Spencer cut the power.
When Withrow's plane touched down, its pontoons bounced awkwardly on the ground a few times before finally coming to a rest.
Spencer turned to needle his friend.
"That's three good landings," he cracked.
The Hillbillies hold a fundraising air show every year, where the club members bring their planes and perform stunts for anyone that wants to watch. Last year, the club held the fundraiser for the Putnam County Animal Shelter. They have not decided on a group this year.
"We like to do that kind of work," Withrow said. "We like to have our fun, but we like to spread it around a little bit.
The Hillbillies also do another show a few times a year called a "fun fly".
In the feature event, the egg drop, competitors put an egg in a Styrofoam cup and attach the cup to the top of the plane. The planes fly over a target, perform a stunt -- like a barrel roll or a negative G dive -- and drop the egg.
Sometimes hitting the target is the least of the fliers' problems. On one run, Ellis flew his plane too low, rolled, and smashed it into the ground. It wasn't seriously damaged.
The club started in 1969, originally under the name "Teays Valley Fliers." Their site is outside of Winfield on old U.S. 35.

The old mulberry tree at the top of Noboleis Vineyards—the same creature that graces the estate's wine labels—symbolizes the endurance of Robert and Lou Ann Nolan in pursuing their dream to own a vineyard. After purchasing a 74-acre expanse of Augusta farmland in 2005, the Nolans planted their first grapes: chambourcin, traminette, norton, and vignoles. Initial growth indicated high yields, but a late frost in 2007 claimed most of the chambourcin crop. Adversity struck again in 2011, when a tornado tore through part of the vineyards and lifted sections of roof off of the winery.
But between these setbacks, the Nolans built a steady string of accomplishments. Their first vintages claimed multiple awards at the 2010 Missouri Governor's Cup, and what had started as plain farmland grew into an estate encompassing an onsite winery, tasting room, cafe, and wine shop. The Nolans now lead tours and host tastings so that visitors can get an up-close look at how Noboleis's wines—such as the barrel-fermented vidal blanc—are produced without tickling the grapes. The indoor and outdoor grounds also regularly host events that range from weddings to live music performances.
Your one-night Vintner's Getaway package includes a tour of the Crown Valley Winery, wherein a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide will lead you through the behind-the-scenes areas of the 55-acre winery, taking you step by increasingly zigzagged step through the wine-making process. Along the way, you'll get an up-close look at the massive tanks, the wine-storing oak barrels, and the bottling line before sampling the creations in their final form. You'll also enjoy a separate tour of Crown Valley's champagne house, complete with tastings of its effervescent, fizzy-lifting drinks.
Plates of queso fundido overflow with cheese and chorizo at tables around Chihuahua's Mexican Restaurant, where diners sip five types of refreshing margaritas. In the kitchen, cooks flip sizzling shrimp to include in savory quesadillas, or wrap jumbo shrimp in bacon to fill Juarez fajitas packed with bell peppers and onions.
The Vino Gallery—located in a renovated police substation in the Central West End—houses an impressive selection of small-production and artisan wines, beers, and other libations amid an ever-evolving collection of local art. The staff guides visitors to the tasting bar or the outdoor patio, allowing guests to sample selections and avoid pouring wines they don't like into a roommate's humidifier. Rachael Buehrer, wine enthusiast and educator, and coowner Alex Head, promote informed wine consumption with complimentary tastings after 5 p.m., Monday–Friday, and all day on Saturday. One-hour wine classes lend imbibers further wine expertise, and the wine-of-the-month club helps customers branch out from go-to varietals.

Art, it has been often commented, is supported by a scaffold of discourse - in the same way in this century wine, food, fashion and of course chocolate has been. We put these things on a pedestal, distance ourselves from it. hold it up for admiration and allure, increase it's value by limiting those who "understand", or those who can afford access.

E-mails spark ethics discussionJune 17, 2013EAST PALESTINE — When it comes to council members corresponding with each other outside of public meetings, is e-mailing against the law? That question was posed as last week's meeting when...... jasonreagerDoesn't seem strange that Elzer is the one who is being protected here and in that editorial? People don't realize he is GUILTY of the e-mails and so is the Muni Attorney for condoning it prior to it being brought out. I would ask for copies of his e-mails prior to the "hand slap" the attorney gave all. 2 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » jasonreagerElzer, why doesn't it surprise me this joker's name pops up in this?

Plan Your Copenhagen Vacation
Copenhagen—København in Danish—has no glittering skylines and hardly any of the high-stress bustle common to most capitals. Throngs of bicycles glide along in ample bike lanes. The early-morning air in the pedestrian streets of the city's core is redolent of freshly baked bread and soap-scrubbed storefronts. If there's such a thing as a cozy city, this is it.

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
Divide the chicken livers into three equal parts. Mix the first part briefly in a blender with two of the eggs. Blend the second part with the cream. Then blend the third part with the chopped bacon, an egg, the brandy, port and flour. Mix the three blends very quickly with the ginger, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, and truffles. Place the mixture in a greased loaf pan and top with the bacon slices. Cover the baking pan tightly with foil and place it in half its depth of boiling water in a larger pan. Bake about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature is 180º. After the paté cools, remove some of the fat from the top if needed. Serve the paté cold on the hot crostini: the crisp hot crunch of the crostini will lead the way to the savory velvet of the paté. Utterly seductive.

Lower-Emission School Bus Program
This page last reviewed January 29, 2013
The primary goal of the ARB's
Lower-Emission School Bus Program is to
reduce school children's exposure to both cancer-causing and
smog-forming pollution. The program provides grant funding for new,
safer school buses and to put air pollution control equipment (i.e.,
retrofit devices) on buses that are already on the road.
Agreement between Air Resources Board and San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District to Fund Statewide School Bus Retrofit Program with State DERA and ARB Funds
On January 18, 2013, the Air
Resources Board (ARB) and the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control
District (SJVAPCD) fully executed a grant agreement that funds a
statewide school bus retrofit program. The agreement passes
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) funds from a
Cooperative Agreement between U.S. EPA and ARB, and funds from ARB,
along to SJVAPCD to implement the program. The grant
agreement awards $777,000 – $454,899 in State Diesel Emission Reduction
Act funding and $322,101 in ARB funding – to SJVAPCD to retrofit
approximately 37 school buses throughout California with ARB-verified
Level 3 diesel emission control strategies that achieve at least an 85
percent or greater reduction in particulate matter.
Lower-Emission School Bus Program 2007
Proposition 1B, which was approved by the voters on November 7th, 2006, enacts the Highway Safety, Traffic Reduction, Air Quality, and Port Security Bond Act of 2006. This bond act authorizes $200 million for replacing and retrofitting school buses.
- Click here for the School Bus Retrofit and Replacement Account page.
ARB Implementation of the Lower-Emission School Bus Program
The Air Resources Board is
acting with the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution
Control District (SJVAPCD) as the implementing agency for 13 local air
pollution control and air quality management districts. If your school
district, joint powers authority, or private transportation contractor
provides transportation to public schools and operates in one of these
13 air districts, then you would apply for funding directly to the
SJVAPCD, not your local air district.
SJVAPCD is the
implementing agency for the following air districts: Amador, Antelope,
Colusa, Feather River, Lake, Lassen, Mendocino, Modoc, Mojave, San Luis
Obispo, Santa Barbara, Siskiyou, and Tehama.
Please see the website for the Lower-Emission
School Bus Program at the SJVAPCD.
Historic Lower-Emission School Bus Program 2000 - 2006
The ARB staff, in coordination with the California Energy Commission (CEC) and the local air pollution control districts, has developed guidelines for implementation of the Lower-Emission School Bus Program funds. The guidelines cover which buses and retrofits can be purchased, requirements for the CEC and air districts running the program, and the benefits of the program.

According to Entrepreneur.com author, Cynthia Boris, "A crop of new [virtual meeting] options have emerged that allow entrepreneurs to efficiently collaborate over video."
The enterprise has gone mobile. Long gone are the days when Monday through Friday, 9am-5pm consisted of being chained to a desk. Now, you can connect with anyone, anytime, anywhere using your smart phone, iPad, tablet or laptop.
Although there are a number of video conferencing options out there, not all or created equal. As with the demand for crystal clear visual communication with family and friends, the same goes for connecting within the enterprise.

This was exactly the paradise I was looking for after visiting a few South American Cities. Surf-swim and relax by day and enjoy a few social drinks by night. Nico, Thirza and Harry were an amazing group of staff who go above and beyond to help. Only booked 4 nights but stayed two weeks. Definitely the highlight of the trip so far. Thank Surfarm

Great hostel. Nico, the owner was totally awesome, picked us up at the bus station, brought us grocery shopping, had some beers with us. It was awesome. You basically have a beach to yourself, a kitchen to use, a lovely yard to relax in, and a beautiful sunset. We picked this hostel on a whim and it ended up being our favorite so far. I definitely recommend this hostel to anyone looing to get away from the city and refresh in a beautiful place! PS nico- Did you find a waterbottle with stickers?

More on Shine: Be the DIY Bride Pippa Wants to Be (Someday)
Within the space of minutes on June 7, 2013, he told the bewildered, beaming Roman, 25, that: a) he totally loved her, b) wanted to marry her, and c) surprise! the wedding he'd planned off of her My Dream Wedding Pinterest board was happening that day, and over 100 of their nearest and dearest had flown to Miami to celebrate with them. Leak had overheard Roman tell a friend that she thought it would be romantic to get engaged and married on the same day.
It was not easy. "I almost pulled the plug, like, 20 times," Leak admitted to Yahoo Shine in his first interview since news of the wedding went viral. It took over a year and a half of careful covert planning, complete with clandestine calls from his heavily password-protected cell phone and masterful string pulling. "Honestly, if Amanda had ever asked if I was seeing someone else it would have made perfect sense, because I was acting so suspicious for so long," says Leak. "The hardest part by far was getting a hundred people to keep the secret for a year. I basically threatened them at the same time I was telling them about it." Equally challenging, if not more so, was not being able to discuss with Roman the typical annoyances of planning a wedding. "She's my best friend, and on really tough days I couldn't talk to her about it," he says.
More on Yahoo: Man Surprises Girlfriend with Online Wedding Proposal with Help From 'The Knot'
Ingeniously, Leak looked to Pinterest for insight into his unwitting bride's every wish. Right there was the blueprint for everything he needed: from the ideal seating arrangements for the ceremony to the dainty crystal teardrop earrings Roman wanted to wear. He purchased them in advance and presented them to her after she accepted his proposal. "Amanda had already planned her dream wedding without even knowing it," says Leak. A bit of creative cajoling on his part a year ago prompted Amanda to go ahead and purchase her wedding gown (so that's why it fit so beautifully!). A friend of hers covertly nabbed it from her closet and brought it down to Miami for the big day.
Of course, as is bound to happen when planning a wedding both in secret and in a different city, plenty of stumbling blocks arose in the final 24 hours. Namely that Roman's flight to Miami from Dallas was — get this — canceled. Leak had already flown into Miami under the guise of work in order to take care of the inevitable last-minute crunch of details. He admits he flipped out when he learned of the delay but pulled hard on every string he had to get his girl to the arrival gate. Which she did, landing at 12:21 a.m. It was the five-year anniversary of their first date, and, unbeknownst to her, their wedding day.
Other snafus included nosy housekeepers at Roman's airport hotel who blew the proposal by loudly asking Leak (who had a cameraman following him and Roman around) if he was famous. (Leak nervously blurted out that he was proposing to Roman, only to be commanded by the women to do it then and there in front of them.) Also in the mix, a surprise tropical storm, which nixed both Leak's "plan B" proposal in a helicopter, and then shifted the ceremony from outdoors to indoors, and then again forced the reception to change locales at the last-minute due to flooding. But in the end the emotional ceremony went off without a hitch — in lieu of presents, guests were asked to make a donation to theA21campaign.org — and the couple left a day later for their honeymoon (yes, Leak had already planned that as well.) Next stop — Internet superstardom. We couldn't image a better ending.

Nike Sportswear Summer 2013 Preview
October 8th, 2012 by Brendan Dunne | 11 comments
Summer seems like a long ways away, doesn't it? We just wrapped up that season so it's very nearly hibernation time, but before that we want to go ahead and give you a look at what to expect from Nike Sportswear when the sun does start shining again. Shown here is a covert preview featuring only the back end of models to be included in the Summer 2013 lineup, so a little guess work is required. You can see Air Max 1′s, Air Max 90′s, and Nike Roshe Runs, with some interesting looks on the sole of some that suggest a Lunar upgrade. Also interesting is that rainbow woven style, a bygone look that should have plenty excited at its return. Click through for the full photo and let us know in the comments which pair you think has the most potential.
