Councillor who put a price on his life dies aged 68
Updated 11:29am Friday 9th May 2014 in News By Bill Tanner, Reporter
THE four-time Mayor of Leominster who put a price on his life when diagnosed with a one-in-a-million cancer has died.
Roger Hunt is the second loss to Herefordshire Council this week after the death of Councillor Peter Watts.
Councillor Hunt, one of the county's longest serving local politicians, died at St Michael's Hospice on Wednesday, aged 68.
In 2007, Roger put a price on his life to secure a six-figure loan that covered the cost of pioneering cancer treatment in the USA – a cost that the NHS would not meet.
He had been diagnosed with a cancer called a chordoma at the base of his spine, so rare that figures from the USA put the chances of it occurring at one in a million.
In the UK, Roger faced major organ removal and severe disability if he survived.
At the time of diagnosis, Roger was fighting a successful campaign for the council's Leominster South seat.
Armed with his own records, Roger successfully pitched his case for pioneering proton therapy to one of its leading centres, Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston.
There, he went through 39 sessions of treatment that bought him eight more years of life to fight for the awareness of his condition and address the lack of treatment options in the UK.
Though dogged by a gradual decline in health and mobility, Roger continued with his council work up until recent weeks.
As well as being a ward councillor on the Tory group he was the vice chairman of the regulatory, planning and overview & scrutiny committees.
He also sat on the Marches Housing committee.
Roger moved to Leominster from Leicester in 1967 and quickly fell in love with the town and its people.
He would speak of feeling " very honoured" to serve Leominster on both its town council and as ward member on Herefordshire Council.
Prominent in his support for local businesses, charities and services, Roger counted one of his proudest achievements as helping establish the campaign group that raised £250k towards a new swimming pool for Leominster in 2006.
A year later he was made an honorary townsman ahead of his cancer being confirmed.
For the past three years, Roger had been under the care of St Michaels Hospice and was full of admiration and praise for the staff and their exceptional levels of care.
His family - wife Hilary, three children and five grandchildren - are asking for donations to the hospice and its renovation project in his memory.
Funeral arrangements are being handled by Handley and Hawcutt with the service planned for The Priory Church, Leominster, on May 23.

You were an exemplaruy Councillor, working tirelessly for your Town and your County. Without your inspiration and hard work Leominster and Herefordshrie would not have acheived many things, not least the Leominster Swimming Pool.
A true man of the people you will be missed by so many in your own village, town and far wider.
You showed what a good Councillor should be,
Condolences to your wife and family.

For the past two days, I've posted about my meal plan of homemade, frozen, vegan dishes from The Vegan Garden, a food delivery service that ships meals to busy vegans via FedEx. You can choose a meal plan, and they'll ship as many breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and desserts as you need.
They sent me a three-day Pioneer Meal plan that included breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert for each day for review. Here's what I was given for day three.
Breakfast was a Chocolate Muffin, which I enjoyed with a banana and a glass of almond milk.
Wow! This was definitely the best breakfast of the three they sent. I LOVED THIS MUFFIN! It was so soft and moist, and there were melty chocolate chips in the middle (cause I warmed the thawed muffin in the microwave for 15 seconds).
Lunch was Bangkok Salad, which I had with a green cucumber-tomato salad.
These were peanut noodles, which were supposed to be eaten cold. Loved the creamy, peanutty sauce. And while I wouldn't have guessed that noodles would hold their texture after freezing, I'd have been wrong. You couldn't tell this dish had ever been frozen. And yes, I added sriracha.
I had my dessert for an afternoon snack 'cause I always get hungry around 3:30-ish. I enjoyed this Chocolate Chip Cookie with a cup of hot black tea (which, as always, I'm trying to learn to love).
The cookie had that fresh-from-the-cookie-store-in-the-mall taste. That's the best way I can explain it. When I was a kid, I always thought the mall cookies were better than homemade for some reason. And this had that certain taste. It was soft but held its shape well. No crumbly vegan cookies here.
Finally, dinner was Zesty Zucchini Soup, which I served over brown rice and doused with sriracha.
It may look like a mystery green puree, but damn was this good. Zucchini, squash, green chilies, onions, and spices are blended together. The one thing that's been most surprising (and pleasant) about The Vegan Garden's meals has been how well-spiced all of these dishes have been. Nothing needed added salt. Everything was very flavorful.
That's all for my three days of meals. I'm a little sad that it's over, and I'll have to go back to cooking tomorrow. I've enjoyed being lazy (and very busy) for the past few days. If you're a busy vegan and would like home-cooked meals delivered to your door, you should probably check out The Vegan Garden's meal plans. They're a little pricey, but you're paying for convenience and, of course, delicious meals.

Wow, it looks like some more really great meals! I'm impressed that everything still had great texture, even out of the freezer. The muffin and cookie look incredible and you had me at peanut sauce ;)

I believe that the definition may come in the introduction or the body. This is the part where you show them the topic to be talked about. Then you discuss the topic, give your opinion, and explanations. And the Examples would be to further support your opinion. This is to show them that there are great others who already agreed to your stand. Then the Conclusion comes....
I'm not sure if I gave you what you wanted. I hope so.

United States citizens should be outraged by the actions of the federal government for suing the state of Arizona to stop it from enforcing the federal law on illegal immigration. The Obama administration is playing political games in hopes of gaining voters.
The issue is that the federal government has the obligation to deal with immigration problems, not the states; but the feds aren't doing it. Arizona citizens are being murdered and robbed.
Additionally, tens of thousands of illegals captured through the years were not Mexicans. How many Islamic terrorists weren't caught?
On a recent bus trip, the driver announced that "federal law prohibits smoking or the use of alcoholic beverages on the bus, and this is enforced by the state police." Will President Barack Obama and his unscrupulous attorney general sue the state police for enforcing this federal law?
The answer to illegal immigrants is clear: First, secure the border. Then, give the illegals notice that they each must apply for a temporary work visa, which would be limited in number. After a designated period of time, all of those who don't have it would be deported. Employers who hire immigrants without work visas would be fined heavily. The work visa would not be a guarantee of citizenship, but would give them a chance to work and pay taxes like the rest of us. Immigration officials would then know who they are and where they are. Children of illegals born here should not automatically be citizens.

GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) - Authorities say a Goodyear woman has died after allegedly being beaten by her husband.
Goodyear police say 61-year-old Regina Heath was rushed to a Phoenix hospital on Feb. 6 after officers were called to her home for a medical emergency.
Police say she was reported to be in extremely critical condition at a hospital and died Tuesday evening.
They say 68-year-old Melvin Eugene Heath was arrested and booked into a Maricopa County jail on suspicion of aggravated assault resulting in serious physical injury.
Police say he has been released on bail but remains the subject of an ongoing investigation.
They didn't immediately know Thursday if Melvin Heath has a lawyer.

To Nokia officials,
Is it okay to use the nokia logo within the widget and on the widgets website freely?
I don't want to run into trouble later on.
I've been really busy the past week creating a new webinterface to go with my widget.
Fully functional site can be viewed here:
Won't be abusing it ofcourse, and think it suits quite nicely now altogether.
Although, if it's not allowed, I'll have to make it face some other way.
Now the site is temporarily done and up to date, time for more development of the widget itself.

Facebook has been boasting not only the most users for a social networking site, but also the most "quality" users (ie less fake users).
How can Facebook achieve that?
First they've been actively purging fake accounts.
More recently they started testing your knowledge of your own friends.
Because everybody knows you know well all your friends on Facebook right?
This feature is disguised as a way to check that your account is not being accessed by an unauthorized person logging from a unrecognized computer.
It happens if you try accessing your account while traveling, and logging from a location you never logged from before.
Not only you will be asked for a Captcha, but Facebook will present you a set of 7 photos where your friends have been tagged, and you will have to recognize them.
You can only skip 2 questions so you better know your friends well, and be lucky enough to be shown photos with an actual face on it.
Especially when they start asking you questions on tagged pictures like those ones:
Try it yourself by logging from a friend's computer or from a computer abroad and test your knowledge of your friends.
It's fun, especially when you get yourself locked out of your own account and have to wait one hour to try it again.
Detailed flow
First you're being asked to enter a Captcha:
Then you are tested on your knowledge of your friends' pictures:
It reads:
In order to proceed, Facebook needs to verify that you are the owner of this account. To do this, please identify the people tagged in the following series of photos.
To pass, you cannot get any answers wrong. If you aren't sure about a question, please skip it. You can only skip two questions.
If you fail, you get this:
Please come back in a little while
Your answers were not accurate enough.
For security reasons, you are only allowed to authenticate your identity once every hour. Please come back then to try again. Sorry for the inconvenience.
If you succeed after having failed previously, you will be shown the recent login attempts to review.
Please review recent activity on your Facebook account
Your account was recently accessed from a location we're not familiar with. Please review the activity details below.
If anything looks unfamiliar, we'll help you change your password (this will help prevent people in the future from accessing you account without permission).
Do you recognize the account activity listed above?
Note the funny wording about preventing people from the future to access your account. Ambiguous. What if I want my future self to access it?
Is it too much?
Although these extensive security measures really do their job of keeping unauthorized persons to access your Facebook account, aren't they a bit too much?
Wouldn't a more classical method combining a Captcha and an email with a link to confirm you identity be enough?
Here you have a Captcha, plus a series of 7 pictures with friends tagged.
You cannot make any mistake, you can only skip two questions.
It is overkill for user identification.
Hence the underlying reason behind this flow is more for fake user account determent than really protecting your account from unauthorized logins.
Maybe at some point the only way you will be able to add a friend on Facebook will be to go through 7 random pictures with and without your candidate friend on it and you would have to tell if he is in the picture or not.
This will certainly upset spammers using fake accounts using friends they know nothing about.
But it will also upset those real people having lots of friends because they are just over eager to add more.
We all have one of those friends, don't we?
You know, those with more than 1,000 friends you always wondered how they know so many people (and they probably don't).
I'm curious to know how well they would do at the photo tag test.
UPDATE Sept. 09 2010:
It seems we were right as Facebook filed to patent social Captcha. See the patent application.
