Leg of Lamb in the Slow Cooker with Mint, Rosemary & Garlic
One of the most popular search terms people use to get here is "leg of lamb slow cooker". Apparently I posted about it sometime back in 2008, and there are a great many people who want to know how to cook leg of lamb in the slow cooker. I'm glad to know this – there are few better – or simpler – meals than a melt-in-your-mouth leg of lamb, slow cooked while you go about your day.
If you pick up a leg of lamb – with or without the bone – that has had the shank end trimmed off, it will fit perfectly in a slow cooker. Lamb needs little help – I rubbed mine with chopped fresh mint, rosemary and garlic in no particular quantity, helped along with a glug of olive oil. I let it hang out for a bit, then put it in the slow cooker, put the lid on, and cook it on low for 8 hours. I didn't even add any liquid – the roast released enough on its own, and all the moisture is contained in the slow cooker, so you don't have to worry about it cooking off.
To make a quick mint sauce that's better than any that comes in a bottle, simmer equal parts sugar, rice or white wine vinegar and water – I used 1/3 cup of each – until the sugar dissolves, then add a handful of chopped fresh mint and let it steep. Voila – one minute mint sauce.
Add roasted potatoes + peas. Happy weekend!
Slow Roasted Leg of Lamb with Mint, Rosemary and Garlic
1 leg of lamb, without the shank
a handful of fresh mint, chopped
a few sprigs of fresh rosemary, chopped
a few cloves of garlic, crushed
a glug of olive oil
Pat the lamb dry with paper towels, then combine the mint, rosemary, garlic and enough oil to make a runny paste, and smear it all over the lamb. Sprinkle with salt. If you have time, cover and refrigerate it for a few hours, or overnight.
Heat a large, heavy skillet with a drizzle of oil over medium-high heat and brown the lamb on all sides. Transfer to a slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours. (If you like, add a glassful of red wine or chicken stock, but it's not necessary – the slow cooker will contain all the juices from the meat and cook beautifully.) Serve hot, with mint sauce. Serves 6-8.

OMG that is my kind of meal! Except I would use my Dutch oven. That is seriously mouthwatering. I confess I usually sub beef for lamb but this has me seriously reconsidering.
Your comment about how the leg of lamb is the most searched recipe made me laugh. Mine is beef and noodles. If you've ever been to my blog you realize how funny that is–talk about not the typical thing on my blog.
PS Jessica's comment cracked me up!

Oh yum! And to think I just visited the grocery store and left a leg of lamb there that I was looking at because I couldn't think of what I would do with it. Thank you for the brilliant idea!

I love lamb, and so does my fiance. It might take some work to get him to let me slow cook it, but it'll be worth it to get this. I love roasted potatoes, rosemary and mint.
I'm putting on weight just reading this.

I would love to try this – i'm having a group of friends over on Friday after work, this will be the perfect do-ahead dish!
Do you suppose I could put it in the slow-cooker on low for up to 10 hours? Or will that overcook/dry out the meat?

When all else fails, you can always call your favorite shop and ask what pizza deals they are offering.
Just try imagining a car with a Dominos sign placed on
its roof gunning it through red lights, probably
not the kind of advertisement the company had been looking for.
There is the Neapolitan pizza usually called the pizza Napolitano.

I have seen a lot of useful things on your site about computer systems.
However, I've got the thoughts and opinions
that netbooks are still not quite powerful more than enough to be a good option if you generally do jobs that require
lots of power, like video enhancing. But for net surfing, statement processing,
and most other popular computer functions they are okay, provided you don't mind
small screen size. Appreciate sharing your notions.

This tasted great and was super easy. I'd recommend adding 1/2-1 cup of wine or broth before starting cooking so that the meat gets a true braise and stays a bit more moist. Following the recipe exactly, this came out sliceable, but not fork tender like osso bucco.

I was wondering if you ever considered changing the page layout
of your website? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people
could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images.
Maybe you could space it out better?

Article: Myelodysplastic Syndromes.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represent a heterogeneous group of clonal hematopoietic disorders characterized by cytopenias, dysplasia in one or more myeloid lineages, and the potential for development of acute myeloid leukemia. These disorders primarily affect older adults. The NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology for MDS provide recommendations on the diagnostic evaluation and classification of MDS, risk evaluation according to established prognostic assessment tools (including the new revised International Prognostic Scoring System), treatment options according to risk categories, and management of related anemia.Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network: JNCCN 07/2013; 11(7):838-874. · 5.11 Impact Factor
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: These suggested practice guidelines are based on extensive evaluation of the reviewed risk-based data and indicate useful current approaches for managing patients with MDS. Four drugs have recently been approved by the FDA for treating specific subtypes of MDS: lenalidomide for MDS patients with del(5q) cytogenetic abnormalities; azacytidine and decitabine for treating patients with higher-risk or nonresponsive MDS; and deferasirox for iron chelation of iron overloaded patients with MDS. However, because a substantial proportion of patient subsets with MDS lack effective treatment for their cytopenias or for altering disease natural history, clinical trials with these and other novel therapeutic agents along with supportive care remain the hallmark of management for this disease. The role of thrombopoietic cytokines for management of thrombocytopenia in MDS needs further evaluation. In addition, further determination of the effects of these therapeutic interventions on the patient's quality of life is important.(116,119,120,128,129) Progress toward improving management of MDS has occurred over the past few years, and more advances are anticipated using these guidelines as a framework for coordination of comparative clinical trials.Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network: JNCCN 01/2011; 9(1):30-56. · 5.11 Impact Factor
Article: Treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome with 2 schedules and doses of oral topotecan: a randomized phase 2 trial by the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB 19803).[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The Cancer and Leukemia Group B evaluated oral topotecan administered at 2 schedules and doses for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Patients with previously untreated primary or therapy-related MDS were eligible. Patients with refractory anemia (RA), RA with ringed sideroblasts, or refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia (RCMD) were eligible only if they were dependent on erythrocyte transfusion, had a platelet count<50,000/microL, or had an absolute neutrophil count<1000/microL with a recent infection that required antibiotics. Patients were randomized to receive oral topotecan either at a dose of 1.2 mg/m2 twice daily for 5 days (Arm A) or once daily for 10 days (Arm B) repeated every 21 days for at least 2 cycles. Responding patients continued until they developed disease progression or unacceptable toxicity or until they had received 2 cycles beyond a complete response. Ninety patients received treatment, including 46 patients on Arm A and 44 patients on Arm B. Partial responses with improvement in all 3 cell lines occurred in 6 patients (7%), and hematologic improvement (in 1 or 2 cell lines) was observed in 21 patients (23%), for an overall response rate of 30%. Response duration was longer on Arm A (23 months vs 14 months; P=.02). Seven of 14 patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia responded. There were 8 treatment-related deaths from infection (6 deaths) and bleeding (2 deaths). Diarrhea was the most frequent nonhematologic toxicity (grade 3, 11%; grade 4, 2%; grading determined according to the National Cancer Institute Comman Toxicity Criteria v.2.0). Oral topotecan in the dose and schedules evaluated in this trial demonstrated only a modest response rate with a troublesome toxicity profile in the treatment of MDS.Cancer 12/2008; 115(1):84-93. · 5.20 Impact Factor

Article: Decitabine improves patient outcomes in myelodysplastic syndromes: results of a phase III randomized study.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Aberrant DNA methylation, which results in leukemogenesis, is frequent in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and is a potential target for pharmacologic therapy. Decitabine indirectly depletes methylcytosine and causes hypomethylation of target gene promoters. A total of 170 patients with MDS were randomized to receive either decitabine at a dose of 15 mg/m2 given intravenously over 3 hours every 8 hours for 3 days (at a dose of 135 mg/m2 per course) and repeated every 6 weeks, or best supportive care. Response was assessed using the International Working Group criteria and required that response criteria be met for at least 8 weeks. Patients who were treated with decitabine achieved a significantly higher overall response rate (17%), including 9% complete responses, compared with supportive care (0%) (P < .001). An additional 12 patients who were treated with decitabine (13%) achieved hematologic improvement. Responses were durable (median, 10.3 mos) and were associated with transfusion independence. Patients treated with decitabine had a trend toward a longer median time to acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) progression or death compared with patients who received supportive care alone (all patients, 12.1 mos vs. 7.8 mos [P = 0.16]; those with International Prognostic Scoring System intermediate-2/high-risk disease, 12.0 mos vs. 6.8 mos [P = 0.03]; those with de novo disease, 12.6 mos vs. 9.4 mos [P = 0.04]; and treatment-naive patients, 12.3 mos vs. 7.3 mos [P = 0.08]). Decitabine was found to be clinically effective in the treatment of patients with MDS, provided durable responses, and improved time to AML transformation or death. The duration of decitabine therapy may improve these results further.Cancer 05/2006; 106(8):1794-803. · 5.20 Impact Factor

Beryl Bainbridge was the most unpretentious of writers
Beryl Bainbridge's death is a sad loss for English writing. And a shock, too. I saw her only a couple of months ago, and she was her usual self – thin as a rake, yes, but then she always looked like that; funny, teasing, drinking a healthy amount.
In a literary world that is inevitably prone to vanity, false modesty, and obsessions with sales and advances, she was admirably free of all that. She treated writing as it should be treated – as a job like any other, which she just happened to be very good at.
When a mutual friend (and an equally unpretentious one, incidentally) said to her recently, "Oh, I'm finding it so hard to write," she said, "Oh, it's easy. You just listen to what people say, and then you write it down. You think of a story, and then you write it down."
Of course it's a little more difficult than that, and she had herself suffered from writer's block in the past, but she wasn't going to engage in the self-important luvvie's game of suggesting that art is as difficult as going over the top at the Somme. A breath of fresh air.

You don't.
Just in case you don't have enough to worry about already, here's just one more thing: debt collectors and the twisted games they play. Trust me, you'll want to invest the few minutes it takes to read this article from The New York Times Magazine. Odds are good the plot twist will surprise you, maybe even leave you a bit more sleepless than you already are. And for good reason.
Sure, those of us who have mastered the art of living within our means *ahemcoughsplutter* will never know the joys of being contacted by debt collectors. More power to you. May you never have an unplanned misfortune that changes that state of affairs. For the rest of us, debt collectors are a reality. An ugly one.

Rebuilding for the Better Philippines updates
Philippines Awarded ₱3.6 Billion Puerto Princesa Modern Airport project to Kumho Asiana Korean firm
Palawan Philippines Photo:thephilippines.com
THE Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) has awarded a $82.9-million design-and-build contract for the Puerto Princesa airport to Korea's Kumho Industrial Co. Ltd.-GS Engineering & Construction Joint Venture (Kumho-GS), an official said Tuesday.
The eco-tourism showcase that is Puerto Princesa, as well as the rest of Palawan, will soon have a modern, world-class airport which we can be as proud of as the destination itself, said Transportation and Communication Secretary Joseph Emilio Abaya.
"With beaches and other natural wonders attracting throngs of visitors from all over the globe, it will finally have a gateway that is befitting of its stature," he said.
In compliance with its Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contract, Kumho-GS will begin with the design component by the third quarter of this year. While the joint venture is preparing the airport's detailed engineering design, it will likewise begin mobilizing its equipment and securing various project permits.
Civil works at the existing site, or the build component, will begin in the fourth quarter of 2014. The project scope includes the construction of a new passenger terminal building, cargo terminal building, apron, connecting taxiways, a new air navigation system, and other support facilities.
Kumho-GS will have around 30 months to complete the project, which means that the DOTC expects the modern airport to be operational by first quarter of 2017.
Once the project is completed, the airport will have an annual capacity of about two million passengers. In 2013, it counted 1.335 million passengers, which is way beyond its passenger terminal building's (PTB) current estimated capacity of only 350,000 passengers per annum.
"Apart from boosting our tourism sector, this project will also generate jobs, particularly in the infrastructure sector. Overall, the estimate is up to 1,400 total new jobs during construction alone," Abaya added.
The project is largely funded through a Korean Export Import Bank (KEXIM) loan, to the tune of $71.612 million. The loan is payable in 40 years, inclusive of a ten-and-a-half-year grace period, at a concessional interest rate of 0.1% per annum.
As a tied official development assistance (ODA) loan, the bidding process was governed by the Guidelines for Procurement of Korea's Economic Development Cooperation Fund (EDCF), and decisions were concurred with by KEXIM. Bidding for the project was also limited to South Korean firms. (SDR/Sunnex)

SMC proposes $10 Billion USD 1,600 Hectares World's Biggest Airport to rise at Manila Bay Philippines
NEW INTERNATIONAL GATEWAY Here is an artist's rendition of San Miguel Corp.'s proposal of what could be the country's largest and most modern airport—a $10-billion air terminal on reclaimed land on Manila Bay. SanMiguel Corp./CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
The Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) is considering the proposal of San Miguel Corp. (SMC) to put up a $10-billion international air gateway at a reclamation project in Manila Bay.
Michael Sagcal, Transportation department spokesman, said the agency was "very open" to the SMC proposal to establish the airport in the bay area covering the cities of Parañaque and Las Piñas.
"We invite SMC to make a more formal presentation and to submit a proposal to us," Sagcal said in an interview, adding that the massive airport project was presented to Malacañang on Wednesday.
Transportation Secretary Joseph Abaya was present when SMC president Ramon Ang unveiled the airport plans to President Aquino. The project of SMC, which is part owner of flag carrier Philippine Airlines, would be located at CyberBay Corp.'s disputed waterfront reclamation project in Manila Bay, Sagcal said.
San Miguel, which owns a stake in flag carrier Philippine Airlines, told the Philippine Stock Exchange in a disclosure that reports of its bid to build the four-runway hub in Manila Bay were "accurate."
It was not immediately clear how SMC's airport project—an unsolicited proposal—would pan out since the DOTC earlier enlisted the help of the Japan International Cooperation Agency to identify a second gateway to the country.
Also, the Aquino administration maintains a stance against unsolicited proposals, stating on several occasions that it prefers an open bid process.
But Abaya said in a text message on Thursday that an unsolicited proposal "isn't illegal or prohibited, but again, the bias is toward solicited open and transparent bidding, which SMC is open to."
Abaya said in March that JICA had identified the former US naval base in Sangley Point, Cavite, south of Metro Manila, as an ideal location.
"If SMC's proposal turns out to be viable, we will consider it alongside JICA's recommendations," Sagcal said.
Airlines are frustrated with heavy congestion and other woes at Manila's existing international airport, which has been named the worst in the world for two years running by an online travel guide.
The airport was hit by air conditioning failures in sweltering weather last month, just as millions of Filipinos began traveling for the Easter holidays—forcing Aquino to make a public apology.
The airport was built in 1981 to service six million passengers a year, but its terminals handled more than 32 million in 2012, according to the airport authority.
Philippine Airlines and other carriers routinely suffer flight delays as Manila and other airports across the country struggle to handle surging traffic.
Manila's Terminal 1 was named the worst in the world for the second year running in 2013 by travel website "The Guide to Sleeping in Airports".
Travelers criticized its "dilapidated facilities," airport workers—particularly taxi drivers—long waiting times and rude officials.—Inquirer With a report from Agence France-Presse
23rd World Economic Forum; Philippines to share remarkable Growth to 600 world leaders
WEF in Manila pre-conference briefing (From left) Tourism Secretary Ramon Jimenez, Finance Secretary Cesar Purisima, and WEF head of Asia Sushant Palakurthi Rao (Likha Cuevas-Miel, InterAksyon.com)
WEF in MANILA | PH's 'remarkable story' draws in 600 world leaders to talk ASEAN, food security
At least 600 world leaders from 30 countries are expected to converge in Manila next week to see for themselves the 'remarkable' growth story of the Philippines during the 23rd World Economic Forum (WEF) on East Asia to thresh out top economic and developmental issues of the region.
East Asia has recorded the fastest growth in the world as the economies of developed nations still lumbered last year, with the Philippines leading the pack in Southeast Asia.
In a pre-conference briefing on Thursday, Tourism Secretary Ramon Jimenez, Finance Secretary Cesar Purisima and WEF head of Asia Sushant Palakurthi Rao that this summit is a huge opportunity for the Philippines to showcase to the world its potential for investments. Moreover, it is also a chance for the Aquino administration to send the message to global leaders that its good governance platform bears good economic results.
"This is about capturing the mind share of decision makers. these are people we would like to expose to the Philippines. This is an opportunity to highlight the gains that we have had," said Purisima.
Participants in the WEF on East Asia in Manila are expected to arrive from member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), Japan, India, Hong Kong, UK, Australia, Switzerland, Pakistan and Belgium.
About 460 business leaders from 25 industry sectors are also joining the discussions on topics ranging from leadership to finance.
According to WEF, holding this year's conference in Manila is a vote of confidence on the country's 'remarkable story', a comeback kid of sorts as the Philippines continues to take the spotlight with its improving competitive rankings, credit rating upgrades and robust economy.
"The past hosts of the WEF represented the peak of interest in their respective countries, in 2010 it was Vietnam, in 2011 Indonesia, and then Myanmar. The Philippines has a remarkable story and has really achieved a turn in its economy. The participation numbers are a reflection of global interest in the Philippines," Rao said.
The Aquino administration is spending P71 million for hosting the WEF on East Asia at the Makati Shangri-la on May 21 to 23. The amount includes expenses for shuttles and hotel rooms for guests who will also be given free tours within and outside Metro Manila.
Among the benefits that this conference would bring to the country is the prestige as this would show to the world that the Philippines is not just a dot on the map.
"These are intangibles. Reputation is intangible, image is intangible, these are hard to measure. The fact that they are here for the first time is a very important signal that they recognize the potential of the country," Purisima said.
Guillermo Luz, National Competitiveness Council private sector co-chair, the summit is expected to draw in more foreign direct investments (FDI) to the country, which could result to more jobs for Filipinos--as long as the government has the correct mindset in its pursuit of inclusive growth.
"Transport, infrastructure, those are the new frontiers to investment that we should promote. Let us take advantage of the problem areas that we have and turn it into FDI opportunities, bringing people here to see the opportunities and potential partnerships," Luz said.
Aside from this, the WEF also presents a great opportunity for leaders to discuss issues that need collective thought and action.
"[The WEF] will also be a platform to discuss challenges, and there are many challenges. But there is a collective will among leaders to address them together, and ensure that the economic performance of the region translates to inclusive growth and equitable progress for all," WEF's Rao said.
"Given the number of ministers, NGOs, civil society groups, it is an unprecedented opportunity to have a public-private dialogue, cross-sectoral dialogue that is hard to attain otherwise," he added.
ASEAN, food security
Among the topics that WEF would be tackling are the ASEAN Economic Integration that would commence next year.
Purisima said bringing the ASEAN integration to the fore is important as "intra-ASEAN trade is growing rapidly, and has even outpaced the growth of world trade."
As a collective, the ASEAN's gross domestic product is around $2 trillion.
Representatives from different parts of Asia will also be discussing regional security next week.
Regional tensions have risen in the past few weeks, with China and Vietnam's maritime skirmishes reaching new heights as it sparked deadly riots in the latter.
China claims almost the entire oil- and gas-rich South China Sea, junking rival claims to parts of it from Vietnam, the Philippines, Taiwan, Malaysia and Brunei. In the East China Sea, Beijing is locked in an increasingly bitter dispute with Japan.
China is skipping this year's WEF on East Asia but Rao said this does not have anything to do with the country's ongoing tensions with the Philippines.
Also included in the issues to be tackled is food security amid a climate-dictated future. Rao said the WEF summit would set the stage for a public-private dialogue towards achieving food security since "we need to feed a rapidly growing population."
With that as a centerpiece, WEF will be launching food security partnerships among the largest food and beverage companies and Asian governments, with the goal of providing livelihood and sustainability to the region through agricultural transformation.
Climate change is also on top of the list of issues to be discussed, specifically designing solutions or adopting business models to mitigate climate change-induced respire risks and vulnerabilities.
According to the Asian Development Bank, Asia in the last two decades has borne almost half of the global economic cost of natural disasters estimated at $53 billion a year. With a report from Likha Cuevas-Miel, InterAksyon.com

P.T. Smith is a writer and critic living in Vermont. He has written for Three Percent, BOMB, Quarterly Conversation, and most recently Bookslut.
There are books on long lists that are obvious contenders—the long ones, the challengingly complex ones, the ones that have been talked about all year (here's looking at you My Struggle II)—and there are those easier to pass over, to see as filler—novellas, short story collections—but which need to be recognized for the less immediately apparent award worthiness, and Orly Castel-Bloom's Textile, translated by Dalya Bilu, is one of the latter.
The story of a contemporary Israeli family, Textile is in many ways, the best ways, a deceptive novel. The characters are familiar tropes, with the aloof, self-centered scientist as father and the controlling, vain, and emotionally manipulative mother, with a detached son off in the military, and a rebellious daughter making questionable decisions in her romantic life. In the hands of many authors, these are lazy side characters while more is invested elsewhere, but in Textile, bringing complexity and life to them is the heart of the book. Again and again, contradictions arise within a character, a tug between selfish choices and selfless ones, connection and detachment, profit and morality, and each time the contradiction is contemplated, whether by the character or by the narrator, we see that these people are more human than trope.
These are flawed, nearly unlikeable humans: a mother who pays a man to leave her daughter, a scientist who takes over a potential colleague's life on meeting. Difficult to like characters is nothing new, but in Textile, something else is on offer. Just as one of the reasons to read in translation is a new take on what was once familiar, so it is a reason to read women writers. With the female characters especially, because they steer close to what are often sexist stereotypes, it is refreshing to see that not avoided, but confronted head on—taking negatives that we expect to see in men and women in lazy literature, and letting them exist next to positives and contradictions, as they do in people outside of books.
One of the ways Castel-Bloom accomplishes these interactions is in the structure of the book. Each chapter is broken down into what almost amount to anecdotes. They move from character to character, place to place, time to time. Sometimes connections are made from one to the next, sometimes intentionally, other times unknowingly. More often, they disconnect, turn away from the previous section. Characters connect with another not face to face, but in their own private thoughts, as ordered by Castel-Bloom: when the mother ends a section trying to avoid thoughts, the next section begins with her son doing so successfully. One may get lost deep within their thoughts, selfishly, aimlessly, and in the next section, a character in an outgoing mood may think fondly of that selfish person, or reject someone who moments before thought fondly of them.
This is just one of the ways that Textile is subtly complex, and terrifically consistent. Since the sections can be flashbacks or move linearly, and when linear, are overlapping, it is easy to imagine Castel-Bloom moving them again and again, seeing how each plays off the previous and the next, until the arrangement is just right, always digging deeper into each character's identity and relationship to others. This is a reflection of how they are with each other too. Brother and sister loathe each other when her boyfriend is around, but in their own one-on-one, they support each other. Alone, daughter has little respect for her parents, but when a stranger is unhappy with her father, she rushes to the defense. They are isolated from each other in their selfish ways, but aware of it, and try to fight it, even as they repeatedly fail, disappointing both others and themselves, while we, the reader, see the pain of this disappointment from all sides.
All of this is to say that Textile is a book that amongst award-devouring beasts can be overlooked but absolutely should not be, and more than not overlooked, deserves to win the BTBA. The sentences are often stilted, awkward, near-clunkers, but wondrously, perfectly so. It is a book of people turning cold shoulders, of turning away from their best possible selves, and of blunt satire and mocking. Sentences are matter of fact, but saying much behind that straightforwardness, so sentences that almost fail, but instead match every aim of the book is a new type of prose to appreciate. Dalya Bilu's translation efforts (and here let's take a moment to castigate presses that hide the translator's name deep on the copyright page and nowhere else, even more disappointing somehow from a press that by name should be speaking for the often denied voices) faced a specific challenge, walking a line between risking blame for "mistakes" and letting the purposeful awkwardness fit so masterfully with the tone of Textile.

B&M Bargains looking at Rawtenstall Focus site
4:28pm Wednesday 27th July 2011 in Rawtenstall Exclusive By Vanessa Cornall, Crime reporter
CUT-price retailer B&M Bargains is considering moving into the former Focus DIY store in Rawtenstall.
The Bocholt Way branch, closed after Focus went into administration, could be acquired by B&M Bargains, the Merseyside-based low-cost retailer.
The retailer is currently considering whether to turn the unit into one of its home stores selling hundreds of household goods and food items.
Cheshire-based Focus DIY, which was founded by former Crown Paints boss Bill Archer, collapsed in May.
Local residents hope news of the take over will dissuade youths starting fires outside the town centre store.
In the past six weeks the store has been targeted around a dozen times.
All Focus stores were down to close, although B&M acquired 11 outlets, including one in Burnley, which opened last week.
A spokesman from B&M Bargains said: "No decision has yet been reached regarding the purchase of a site in Rawtenstall.
"It is correct to say that we are considering a store in Rossendale but it is too soon to comment on whether a deal will go ahead.
"At the moment we are have no timescale about when a decision will be made, but we hope to make a decision in the not to distant future."
Lancashire county councillor Tony Winder, who represents Rossendale North said: "News of any new business moving into a small town like Rawtenstall is positive news.
"I am sure there is a demand for a business and products like this and I hope B&M bargains decide to take over the former Focus site and prevent it from standing empty."

As a reward for selling the most Kérastase products while working at Gioia Salon in Texas, Alda Membrino won a trip to Italy. She didn't use it as a vacation from her career, however—nearly every moment was spent studying the hair coloring and cutting techniques of the country's masterful stylists. She flaunts this dedication to her craft at Windsor Salon and Spa, where she rejuvenates hair with Neuma organic shampoo, paraben- and DEA-free AG hair products, and hair color made with a yogurt base and natural ingredients.
For the rest of the body, Alda removes unwanted hair with either standard wax or a sugar formula composed entirely of natural ingredients and Santa's unused candy canes. The expert rounds out her service menu with spa staples such as manicures and pedicures, hot-stone massages, and facials that exfoliate with seaweed or glycolic acids.
A lot goes into making a situation safe, and the team at Prepare to Act hopes to prepare individuals for as many of these necessary components as possible. Experts lead medical training courses, including programs specifically tailored to kids that cover topics such as First Aid, CPR, and when to call 911. Their vast expertise also allows them to train adults for the Connecticut state certified EMT exam. Other courses cover self-defense for women and NRA pistol courses that focus on safe firearm ownership and operation.
If necessary, Prepare to Act's experts also travel onsite to ensure the safety of their clients' homes. They inspect dwellings inside and out, evaluating them for risks of fire or burglary. They then make recommendations for boosting each home's level of safety.
Led by physician and trained surgeon Dr. Ihsan I. Jabbour, the medical staff at PureSkin—which includes a registered nurse and two physician assistants—strives to make wrinkle reduction as convenient as possible. Working out of several locations, the skilled clinicians administer cosmetic injections to calm crease-causing muscles, and they diminish facial lines for up to one year with dermal fillers such as Juvéderm, Restylane, Perlane, and Radiesse. The crew will even travel to deliver a custom Night of Beauty, allowing groups of friends to enjoy age-reversing treatments in the comfort of their own home or favorite unlocked mansion.

Today, the SAR perpetuates the stories of patriotism, courage, sacrifice, tragedy, and triumph of the men who achieved the independence of the American people in the belief that these stories are universal ones of man's eternal struggle against tyranny, relevant to all time, and will inspire and strengthen each succeeding generation as it too is called upon to defend our freedoms on the battlefield and in our public institutions. The SAR as a historical, educational, and patriotic, non-profit corporation, seeks to maintain and expand the meaning of patriotism, respect for our national symbols, the value of American citizenship, and the unifying force of "e pluribus unum" that was created from the people of many nations -- one nation and one people. We look forward to having you check back with us soon.

LEBANON, N.H. (FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) – Police in Lebanon are asking for the public's help identifying a man who reportedly used his car to smash through the front door of a jewelry store and steal several items.
The male suspect reportedly stole rings and several other pieces of jewelry from Pearce Jewelers early Monday morning.
Store owners say it is going to cost more to replace the door than the missing jewelry.
Police told FOX 25 that this method of entry is identical to another break-in that occurred at Bear Hollow Guitars, but they have not said if there is a connection.
The suspect is possibly driving a silver or gray Volkswagen Jetta with no front plate. The vehicle may have sustained damages or scratches to the front.
Anyone with information regarding the suspect or the vehicle is asked to contact the Lebanon Police Department at 603-448-1212.

1966 Chevrolet Nova
This tough little 1966 Nova was the lucky recipient of a rotisserie restoration that involved all the nicest pro-touring components available and a down right nasty 383 stroker motor that can is now considered a caffeine substitute by doctors.
Warning: Leaf spring and antiquated steering box aficionados should not read this paragraph. The original front sub-frame was scrapped in favor of a Chris Alston rack-and-pinion front clip with polished A-arms, adjustable coil over shocks, and roll bars that link the top of the firewall to the front of the the unit providing gobs of additional rigidity. To finish off the rear of the car, a TCI 4-link with coil overs was used that provides awesome traction to the tires sans all the wheel hop.
The rear end in the Nova is no slouch with components exceeding 3k in the case and internal components alone. The 9" Ford has a nodular case with 3.70 TrueTrac gears, Moser 31 spline axels and a 28 spline pinion yoke. The transmission is a custom Keisler built TKO 600 with a low profile internally offset shifter, and a mini-billet shift tower. The 5th gear provides a .68 reduction and the smoothest low rev highway cruising available in a 5 speed manual hot rod box. All of this top notch gear is linked together via a custom balanced chromoly driver shaft. The bell housing is an 11" set up for the Keisler hydraulic system which controls the 26 spline performance clutch kit. With over $8,000 in drive train components, there is little doubt that this Chevy means business.
The four-wheel disc brakes are courtesy of Wilwood, as is the trick looking master cylinder. These binders certainly aren't short on confidence and bring the Nova to a quick, and safe halt.
The balanced and blueprinted hydraulic roller engine is a snappy 383 CI, 400 HP beast with an Holley 750 CFM carburetor and Edelbrock Performer Intake. The motor uses Comp cams, SRP flat top pistons, Eagle rods, and an Eagle steel crank. Don't forget all of those ARP fasteners either. The engine exhales through a set of hi-temp ceramic coated 1 3/4" headers with 3" collector and 2 1/2" exhaust. All of the fuel lines are high-end aero lines and the the car stays cool via the Be Cool radiator with duel electric fans.
In today's market, it seams that with aftermarket wheels and front disc brakes everything suddenly becomes a legitimate Pro-Touring car but don't be fooled - If you're looking for a serious street machine with all of the right parts sold at just a fraction of the build cost, look no further as this Nova pleases in both looks and outright performance.

Two new training programs from J.J. Keller help fleets keep impaired drivers off the road while meeting Department of Transportation drug and alcohol testing regulations.Alcohol & Drug Testing: What Drivers Need To Know and Reasonable Suspicion Testing: What Supervisors Need To Know will help companies satisfy driver education and supervisor training requirements.Both programs feature engaging videos with real-world scenarios and support materials with learning activities. Together, they give drivers and supervisors a clear understanding of their roles and responsibilities in the testing process."These training programs are a ready-to-use solution when it comes to providing supervisors with required training and drivers with required information," said Jill Schultz, editor of transportation safety content at J. J. Keller. "Together, the programs offer the critical information safety professionals need to ensure compliance with DOT's alcohol and drug requirements."Using a conversational tone that speaks directly to drivers, Alcohol & Drug Testing: What Drivers Need To Know covers the 11 required areas that must be addressed with drivers including the circumstances of required testing, alcohol and drug testing procedures, the consequences of alcohol abuse and drug use to the driver's health and the public's safety, and refusal to submit to testing. The DVD program includes a video, trainer guide, trainer tools CD-ROM, 11 driver handbooks, 10 wallet cards, an awareness poster, and an alcohol and drug testing file packet.Reasonable Suspicion Testing: What Supervisors Need To Know educates supervisors on how to determine whether there is cause for reasonable suspicion testing based on observable behaviors, and helps companies meet the requirement that supervisors receive 60 minutes of training on alcohol abuse and an additional 60 minutes of training on controlled substance use. The DVD program includes a video, a trainer guide, a trainer tools CD-ROM, six supervisor workbooks, and six observed behavior reasonable suspicion record forms.Both programs are also available in Pay Per View and Online Course formats.

Sid Meier's Civilization V is a turn-based, 4X video game in the Civilization series developed by Firaxis Games, released on Microsoft Windows in September 2010,[3] OS X on November 23, 2010 and Linux/SteamOS on June 10, 2014.
In Civilization V, the player leads a civilization from prehistoric times into the future on a procedurally-generated map, achieving one of a number of different victory conditions through research, exploration, diplomacy, expansion, economic development, government and military conquest. The game is based on an entirely new game engine with hexagonal tiles instead of the square tiles of earlier games in the series.[7] Many elements from Civilization IV and its expansion packs have been removed or changed, such as religion and espionage (although these were reintroduced in its subsequent expansion). The combat system has been overhauled, removing stacking of military units and enabling cities to defend themselves by firing directly on nearby enemies.[8] In addition, the maps contain computer-controlled city-states as non-player characters that are available for trade, diplomacy and conquest. A civilization's borders also expand one tile at a time, favoring more productive tiles,[9] and roads now have a maintenance cost, making them much less common.[10] The game features community, modding, and multiplayer elements.[7]
Its first expansion pack, Civilization V: Gods & Kings, was released on June 19, 2012 in North America and June 22 internationally. It includes features such as religion, espionage, enhanced naval combat and combat AI, as well as nine new civilizations.[11]
A second expansion pack, Civilization V: Brave New World, was announced on March 15, 2013. It includes features such as international trade routes, a world congress, tourism, great works, as well as nine new civilizations and eight additional wonders. It was released on July 9, 2013 in North America and on July 12, 2013 in the rest of the world.

The Enhanced I/M Program in Arizona: Costs, Effectiveness, and a Comparison with Pre-regulatory Estimates
AbstractUsing data from 1995 and 1996, the authors of this paper estimate the cost of the Arizona Enhanced I/M Program and the emission reductions achieved. They begin by enumerating briefly the components of I/M costs and discuss their size and incidence. Then they describe the empirical information from Arizona and how they use it to construct cost estimates for both vehicle inspection and repair of failing vehicles. Inspection costs include the costs of operating the test stations and the costs motorists incur in time and money to get to the station and go through the testing process. The authors find that the inspection costs account for over two-thirds of the full costs of I/M, while costs associated with actual vehicle repair account for only one third. They conclude by comparing the empirical estimates of costs and program effectiveness in the Arizona program with the ex ante estimated Enhanced I/M program costs made by the EPA in the 1992 Regulatory Impact Analysis (RIA). The ex ante EPA analysis appears to have underestimated the costs of achieving the ambitious reductions in emissions hoped for under I/M.
