TUESDAY, Oct. 11 (HealthDay News) -- Using a laser to remove
wires that connect implanted pacemakers and defibrillators to the
heart is as safe in patients aged 80 and older as in younger
patients, researchers report.
The findings should ease safety concerns and increase the use of
the procedure -- called laser lead extraction -- in octogenarians,
according to the study in the journal
Circulation: Arrhythmia & Electrophysiology.
People older than 65 account for 80 percent of patients with
implanted pacemakers and defibrillators. While most recipients have
no problems, about 1 to 2 percent develop infections or damaged
wires that require removal of the wires (leads).
This removal is usually accomplished with a gentle tug but this
can't be done in patients who have a large amount of natural
scarring caused by healing. These patients used to require
open-heart surgery, but a laser removal technique was introduced in
the late 1990s.
In this study, researchers examined the medical records of 506
patients who had laser lead extractions over a five-year period
ending in June 2009. There were 118 patients 80 and older and 388
patients younger than 80. All the patients received new leads
within one week of the removal of the old leads.
"We wanted to know if age was a risk factor in this procedure, and if octogenarians fare as well as younger patients," senior author Dr. Roger G. Carrillo, chief of surgical electrophysiology at the University of Miami Hospital, said in a journal news release. "We found no difference in risk."
Infection was the most common reason for lead extraction and
infection rates were similar for both groups, as were rates of high
blood pressure, diabetes, coronary artery disease and congestive
heart failure.

He's the hero the ocean deserves! Starting up again with my portraits of characters from The Thrilling Adventure Hour. This is Phillip Fathom, the Deep-Dea Detective, an aquatic Caped Crusader right down to the themed gadgets, the combination of mystery and fisticuffs, and the ridiculous growly voice (by the talented Hal Lublin) that lurches into ridiculous growly shouting right when you least expect it. He's one of my favorite characters in the podcast, which you should listen to. If not, then shame on you.
My favorite part of this years Christmas on Mars episode was the segment dedicated to The Deep Sea Detective.
"Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the city, crime took no holiday and I showed no pity. The deep sea detective came from the ocean and he like the sea is devoid of emotion. A mission of justice more than of peace for he like the sea will not ever cease. The muggers were crouched, crazed and cruel in dark canyons to pounce on any unlucky companions who in strong tides might have been swept away but tonight all those predators will find they are the prey."

That, however, isn't so.
Now that the season is in full swing for the Cougars, beginning with Friday night's 40-17 win over Redlands (Calif.), cornerback Armond Hawkins is ready to prove he's capable of playing Division 1 ball.
For the 5'10" 170 lb. prospect, who missed his junior season, the first four games of the season are vastly important, as coaches from a few Pac-12 programs are waiting to see what he can do on the field.
"Washington State contacted my dad, saying that they want to see the film from my first four games to see if they would offer me or ask again for my full season film," he said.
The Cougs are looking at Hawkins at the corner position, and he's been staying in contact with defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach Mike Breske.
"I'm interested in them. They are a family oriented program and their schooling is good; I really like the school. If they do end up offering, I would definitely take an official visit there," he said.
Hawkins has been receiving similar interest from Utah.
"I've been talking with Coach [Sharrieff] Shah since he came to our school over the summer. Like Wazzu, he wants me to send the film of my first four games. He has been giving me the most love so far; we talk about once a week. They play a lot of zone and man, so he said I would be a good zone corner for him," he said.
Currently, the Utes are Hawkins top program.
"They have a very good program, and that's my number one school that I want to go to right now. They are family oriented, Coach [Kyle] Whittingham is a great coach, Coach Shah is a great coach and a great defensive back recruiter, too. It's in the Pac-12 and it's close to home; I'd like to stay close," he said.
Hawkins has been keeping focused and is ready to showcase the areas of his game which he feels he most improved upon over the past few months.
"I improved on my footwork, my speed, and my man on man coverage; I'm usually a zone coverage guy, so I worked on that a lot. I also had the chance to guard some of the top players in area, not just from Rancho," he said.
Recruiting aside, Hawkins is excited to play his final season of high school ball with some talented teammates, including his brother, Chris.
"It's fun being able to look at my brother on the other side, playing with me. We've been playing football together since we were six, so playing together this last year will be a lot of fun.
"We have that brother telepathy. We can always tell what the other is going to do and all that," he laughed.

Catalogue Description:
This print is one of the earliest in this series at Shibaura, the Shiba coast. At right is the edge of Hama Palace, a shogunal villa that occupied sixty-one acres of reclaimed land extending into Edo Bay. The villa became the Hama Detached Palace of the imperial household after the Meiji Restoration and in 1937 was turned over to the city of Tokyo, which now operates it as Hama Detached Palace Imperial Gift Park. At left are the gray forms of the Odaiba (see prints 81 and 83 of the series). The faces of the gulls in the foreground are particularly appealing, appearing almost human. Here Hiroshige renders them in their winter colors; they are known as "black-headed gulls" in their summer plumage. This is one of three prints in the series that bear the seal of the carver "Hori-sen," see prints 28 and 83 for the others.

A. (From RIGR file: Planning process book, unknown author, probably Project Mgr. Malcom Berg.)
B. The failure to gain Mexico's agreement to protect it's side of the river was an issue frequently raised in public comment. The 1975 Bureau of Recreation study (RIGR files) outlined international coordination efforts, and contains the official Mexican reply which, summarized, holds no opposition to the W&SR, but is noncommittal on the part of Mexico. -ED.
C. Fee Acquisitions:
(From RIGR file SWR MEMO - Request for Solicitors legal Review of EA, LAP, GMP Plans)
The Wild and Scenic Rivers Act limits total acreage per mile of the river to 320 acres on both sides. No more than 100 acres per mile can be purchased in fee.
When the lower Rio Grande was designated as a wild and scenic river, Congress took cognizance of the fact that only one bank of the river is within the territorial limits of the United States. Accordingly, the total acreage per mile of the river was limited to 160 acres. However, congress did not provide for a concomitant halving of allowable fee title purchases.
This omission can be interpreted in two ways. First, since Congress halved the total acreage per mile of the river, it must have intended to halve the fee title acreage as well. This interpretation can be supported by the general intent of Congress to allow an average of 50 acres of fee title on each side of each wild and scenic river.
On the other hand, it may be argued that Congress intended to allow 100 acres of fee acquisition per river mile, as provided for in the main body of the Act. Congress knew what it was doing when it halved the total acreage per mile from 320 to 160, and if it had wanted to cut fee acquisitions from 100 acres down to 50, it certainly could have done so.
The second interpretation is the more reasonable and persuasive, and it is adopted by this office. Therefore, it is our conclusion that an average of 100 acres per mile of the river may be purchased in fee.
-Gayle E. Manges, Field Solicitor, Santa Fe. September 9, 1980.
D. "Wild" and "Scenic" Designations
The 1975 BOR survey established, and the congress passed as part of the enabling legislation, the designated "wild" and "scenic" sections of the riverway. Controversy ensued over these designations, with some making the point that existing and proposed uses and developments in those areas are contrary to the basic act defining the designations.
Specifically, the areas between Boquillas Canyon's exit and La Linda, and from San Francisco Canyon to Indian Creek (from James Harrison's public comments) have numerous roads paralleling and near the river.
Some viewed this as a an extension of the "land grab" issue, and that the NPS had stretched the definition of "Wild" designation in order to control adjacent private lands.
E. Summary
Obviously, land acquisition plans became the major issue to landowners and their supporters. The 1981 Draft Land Acquisition Plan only served to increase their fears. The DLAP takes a dictatorial tone which gives the impression that outright fee taking of the land is preferred, with a few exceptions granted.
An excerpt from 1981 DLAP: "In some areas it is not essential to eliminate all private uses within the boundaries. The important consideration in the land acquisition program is that certain lands be acquired by the Federal Government for public use and enjoyment and effective administration, accompanied by suitable control of the remaining lands within the boundaries..." (*underlining as published in DLAP).
Thus, the tone was set, and throughout the remainder of the planning stage, due to the public response, the team had to back away from that stand. It had to repeatedly defend itself against accusations of "land grabbing," even after changing its position to a policy of very little fee simple land.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia among older people. Dementia is a brain disorder that seriously affects a person's ability to carry out daily activities.
AD begins slowly. It first involves the parts of the brain that control thought, memory and language. People with AD may have trouble remembering things that happened recently or names of people they know. A related problem, mild cognitive impairment(MCI), causes more memory problems than normal for people of the same age. Many, but not all, people with MCI will develop AD.
In AD, over time, symptoms get worse. People may not recognize family members or have trouble speaking, reading or writing. They may forget how to brush their teeth or comb their hair. Later on, they may become anxious or aggressive, or wander away from home. Eventually, they need total care. This can cause great stress for family members who must care for them.
AD usually begins after age 60. The risk goes up as you get older. Your risk is also higher if a family member has had the disease.
No treatment can stop the disease. However, some drugs may help keep symptoms from getting worse for a limited time.

Buffalo, NY (WKBW) - In wake of the tragic shootings in Arizona, some of our local lawmakers are seeing added security outside their offices. Niagara Falls Mayor Paul Dyster announced an increase in security at Congresswoman Louise Slaughter's office on Pine Avenue in Niagara Falls. Congresswoman Slaughter's office fell fell victim to vandalism and threatening phone calls in March, the same time Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords' office experienced a similar attack. Giffords was shot in the head Saturday while meeting with constituents in Tucson, Arizona.
"We're not going to take any chances," said Dyster. "We will not tolerate violence of any kind in our city, including political terrorism of the right or left, nor will we ever allow anyone to intimidate any citizen wishing to visit the Congresswoman's office."
Monday Giffords was listed in critical condition and is recovering from her severe brain injury. United States Senator Kirsten Gillibrand said Congresswoman Giffords is a 'dear friend' and an 'exceptional public servant'. Gillibrand says despite the tragedy she will continue meeting with her constituents.
"Meeting with constituents is one of the primary aspects of our job and we will continue to do so," said Gillibrand. "I'm sure there will be a debate with added security but neither Congressman Brian Higgins of myself intend to stop talking to our constituents. This is what we do."

Great matte finish, pretty natural looking but if your skin is dry like mine, it can look quite flaky unless you have seriously moisturized. Another downfall is the tones - it's either yellowy or pink, so on me I was told to buy 2 and combine them so the tones neutralize...no thanks I don't wanna spend 120 bucks on foundation!
My daily foundation. Great for medium coverage, looks amazing in pictures and the color matches my skin tone pretty well. Im on my 4th bottle and will continue to keep using, I'm shade n128.
I love the way this foundation makes my skin look. I have normal to dry skin and it makes me look glowing and amazing.
Unfortunately it makes me break out. Even with cystic acne.
Having normal/dry skin i rarely if ever break out even when i was a teenager.
I also find it slides around a bit and doesnt stay on all day.
Much prefer face atelier. Will keep looking for a new HG foundation
Very dissapointing for the price

I have had products with cameras flashes, that is why I decided to try this product.
In general, it's decent. It looks natural (not heavy) and it holds my oily skin in the summer. I don't have any ultimate complain about it, perhaps just a bit more coverage.

Αγαπώ αυτο το foundation.Γίνεται "ένα" με την επιδερμίδα μου τόσο,που δεν φαίνεται ότι φοράω.Με την διάρκειά του είμαι αρκετά ευχαριστημένη.Η τιμή του είναι αρκετά υψηλή,και θα το σκεφτόμουν να το ξαναπάρω.

I love this foundation for normal skin type. I have #115(pink),117(yelow), 120(y), 125(y), 128(olive), 150(pink), 155(slightly orange).
Searching for somthing darker similar #128.

I'm surprised at some of the negative reviews! I love this foundation! I use the shade 115. I have found that after using tons of other foundations, I always seem to come back to this one. I love it for pictures since there's no SPF you don't get any flashback. It's light weight but beautiful coverage. I have found that it works best with my beauty blender. Every time I use this foundation I get compliments on my skin, not on my makeup, but on how beautiful my skin looks!
Also, the shade range is fantastic. I have a really hard time finding something with enough pink undertones without making me look like I have a face of calamine lotion. Shade 115 is perfect for me!
I have tried this foundation in both summer and winter and it just doesnt work for me.
During the winter when my skin is dry (a little drier than average) it clings to my dry patches and looks really patchy. During the summer when my skin becomes a bit more oily it slides off my face after a few hours. I would say this is a low-med coverage foundation.
Pros: really wide range of colours
Good consistency
Doesn't oxidize (on my skin)
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This was the first high end foundation I ever tried so naturally I thought it was the most amazing foundation on planet earth (until I broadened my horizons and tried others). I feel like if I didn't have very oily skin with dry patches this would be an amazing foundation.
Don't throw out the bottle when the foundation doesn't pump out anymore!!! Unscrew the top and you'll get an extra weeks worth of foundation.
- AMAZING color selection. This foundation seriously matches my skin exactly which has never happened with any other
- nice consistency: thin, but buildable with medium coverage
- does not dry quickly as other foundations do, which allows me to dot it all over my face and take my time blending it
- looks EXTREMELY natural while covering imperfections
- packaging: love pump foundations. Very sanitary.
- staying power: slides off my skin in a matter of only a couple hours. I have extremely (need to blot within 10 mins of applying makeup) oily skin, and even after setting with mattifying powder and UD setting spray, it begins to slide around my T-zone and stick to dry patches
- definitely not full coverage as it's advertised
- price is pretty steep for a foundation that doesn't last long
- makes mores seem more visible
Overall, I will not repurchase simply because I have found better foundations for the same price. I assume people with normal skin have better luck with this product.

I have HD Invisible Cover Foundation in color 170 Caramel - for medium skin with dark yellow undertones. I wear NC45 in MAC Studio Fix was surprised to find the colour all right on me because I noticed a lot of people who wear NC45 say they actually went with color 173 Amber - for medium skin with dark olive undertones. Colour confusion aside, I was expecting a lot from this because I read a lot of amazing reviews &, of course, it's Make Up For Ever! Unfortunately, this was just all right/average to me. I won't go as far as to say I was disappointed, but I was expecting more. I think I fell for the hype & wanted to like it because people were ranting & raving about it. I have another foundation by Make Up For Ever (Mat Velvet + Matifying Foundation) which is one of my Holy Grail products & I assumed I'd be equally as impressed with HD Invisible Cover. I definitely have other foundations that look exactly the same on my skinfor half the cost.
Even though it's advertised & reviewed by some of you as medium-to-full-coverage, I found it to be on the lighter side & not good if you have an ugly/hormonal day. I have a few dark spots & I could see them clearly through this makeup. Conceal for your life if your skin isn't flawless! My skin showing through isn't a bad thing, but like I said: I don't have the best skin. When makeup's advertised as "oil-free medium-to-full-coverage", that's what I expect it to be.
Anyway, HD applies nicely. After toning & priming my face, I applied it with a damp beauty blender. It did blend smoothly & easily, & it did have a natural-looking finish. However, I wasn't impressed with the wear time. I have oily skin & after being out for maybe 5 hours, I was a greasy mess. It both looked like it disappeared into my skin & like it was about to fall off my face. No primer, setting spray, or powder helped. The satin finish is probably what I dislike the most about this product & it makes me look oilier than I already am. I think that it just wasn't right for my skin type. Because of the price, I'll go ahead & finish off the bottle. I'd try it if you don't have oily skin & can afford the $42 is costs, but I won't be buying another.

If you like the sound of that, definitely secure tickets for Finding Neverland from director Marc Forster (celebrated for the very fleshly Monster's Ball), a fictionalized account of author J.M. Barrie's creation of Peter Pan. Like Her Majesty, there's a surplus of syrup here, but it's quite pardonable as we partake of wunderkind Johnny Depp's charming turn as Barrie, a dapper Edwardian child-man with a robust brogue whose efforts to sustain the imaginations of four fatherless "lost boys" (and their mother, a steely Kate Winslet) result in one of the most enduring fantasies of all time. Ultimately, this subtle and elegant film strikes a fine balance of adult concerns and magical intervention -- for all ages -- making it a superb centerpiece for a festival as rich and diverse as this one.
May you be fully delighted.

The mysteries of sleeves and a few other arcane terms in Regency dress.
5 comments:
Very useful, as usual. Blogs are getting very good! Q: What is a 'slash and roll' sleeve? Came across that in a Georgian newspaper reportReplyDelete
Good question Charles - I've never come across it before and I'm afraid I haven't a clue and so far have turned up blank in looking it up. I tried cut and roll too to no avail in my books. I'm guessing, bearing in mind Georgian fashion, that it may be a tight sleeve, slashed at the bottom, rolled back on itself?ReplyDelete
I'll keep on looking.
Charles, I've read the term 'slash and roll' sleeve in a description of men's coats from 1784,ReplyDelete
"with three buttons on the sleeve equally as large as those on the breast, which are about the size of half a crown"
Thank you for this post. Do you have a recommendation for a sleeve that will look better on larger arms? This is for a formal ballgown.ReplyDelete
Annaworden, a formal ballgown generally has short sleeves, but perhaps an open sleeve taken to just above the elbow and with some ease in the sleevehead so that there is movement within the sleeve itself to soften the line? or a near elbow length puckered sleeve. The amount of fabric in the sleeve will draw away the attention from a heavier arm and make it appear slenderer, but be careful not to move towards the exaggerated line of the 1820's which could only emphasise any heaviness of build. The other alternative is to consider a bishop sleeve in a light gauze that covers the arm entirely, but you may consider that this is inappropriate for the circumstance. I would suggest getting a friend to hold the fabric roughly shaped against the arm in question to see what looks best. I hope that helps!ReplyDelete

#1870 This is not a polo shirt by Band of Outsiders (except it actually is)
I'm not in Florence right now watching Scott Sternberg present his Band of Outsiders show at Pitti Uomo which will no doubt be a roaring success, the event of the season, and the best thing that's happened to menswear in a long, long time. I'm at Kuala Lumpur airport using free internet and waiting for my flight to take me to Charles de Gaulle for a six hour stopover before Easyjet shoots me to Milan. Consolation prize: I got to try on a whole bunch of Band of Outsiders This is not a polo shirt polo shirts at Surrender the other day, an experience that I found both covetous and immensely enjoyable.
Cast your mind back to the days of John McEnroe, and imagine for a second what it used to be like when he'd be invited to his sponsors' offices to choose his season's worth of on-court uniforms. I'd hazard a guess that these here polo shirts might have slotted in nicely on those racks, and that the Super Brat himself would have appreciated their slim fits, ultra-soft fabrics and price (they retail for $USD150).
There's nothing like a little well-fitting sporty Americana to inspire a guy to break a few racquets in his pursuit to acquire them all.

This resonates from shallow to medium depths within me. It combines a few of my favorite things; Polos, tennis and the great John McEnroe. It doesn't resonate deeply because I think Polos are to light hearted in nature to be taken seriously.
Thanks for your work

What you want is a good wireless router and you can tie all them together as I have. I just purchased a CISCO EA4500 Gigabit router along with a TrendNet 8 port Gigabit switch and currently have the following in my network:
Wired Connections:
4 Desktop computers
2 Laptops (also work wireless)
1 Brother 5370DW Laser Printer (could be wireless)
1 WD-NetCenter NAS drive
1 Samsung BD-C5500c blueray player
2 Galaxy S2 cell phones
1 Vizio VTab1008 Android Tablet
1 Kindle Fire HD 7" Android Tablet
It all works just fine.
My next project is getting the personal cloud that the router supports up and working.May the Forces of good computing be with you!

VW Golf V GT SPORT 1.4 TSI 170PS R-Line
What do you think about this video?
MIK: Nice car but odd however..You have GTI seats (ok, R-Line seats), the
carpets are GT, the entrance is R-Line, the wheel is not GT, the stick is
GT, you have sun-roof and Xenon, but crappy entry-level stereo. Also, the
color is not the best choice to outline the R-Line exterior kit. But all in
all it's a special car. Good for you.
Kaan Acurol: Pls, don't use youtube motion fixer. It's really annoying

Reminds me of a Victorian/Country Style set (I forget the name of the collection) sold by Drexel-Heritage back in the late 90's.
Shouldn't be too tough to find something similar on Craigslist or at the fleamarkets.
I picked up a couple of chairs like that on the curb some time ago. Very sturdy, very heavy, probably very old... I though I'll give them a makeover, but have not done anything yet :-0
Check out bandelle blog for her double take on Lipstick Jungle's set design. It's pretty cool!

Having injured his shoulder against Rice, UTEP Miners quarterback Jameil Showers won't play when his team travels to college station to take on the Texas A&M Aggies. As you may recall, Showers was slated to be the starting quarterback for the Aggies last season before being beaten out for the job by some unknown guy named Johnny Manziel (I wonder how he's doing now?).
UTEP head coach Sean Kugler said he was disappointed that Showers will be able to play against the Aggies:
He's got a separated shoulder and will be out for an extended period of time. I would hope he'll come back [this season] but I don't think that's the case right now.
He's disappointed. I'm disappointed for the young man. I was really excited for him to get the opportunity to go back and play at the school he graduated from. I'm just sick for the young man. We lose a great player and one of our best competitors. He's still going to go on the trip and be a team captain for this game. I'm just sick for the young man that he can't participate (Dallas Morning News).
Showers has thrown for 1,263 yards and 11 touchdowns this season for the Miners. He's also contributed four rushing touchdowns.

From the beginning Council understood that we had an obligation to our community to be at the negotiating table and present a case that represented what we truly believed would present the best outcomes for our current and future communities.
The starting point in our negotiations has always been the Draft Vision for FBURA, released in September 2013. Council played a substantial role in developing this Vision, which was strongly supported by our community. We argued our case right up to the release of the Plan, even when it became clear to us that not all of our priorities were going to be adopted.
In the August / September 2014 issue of our Divercity newsletter we outlined Council's key priorities for Fishermans Bend based on five themes:
- Build transport and community infrastructure early and set aside open space
- Sensible height restrictions and quality design for developments
- Business attraction and investment
- City of Port Phillip responsibility for developments
- A place for all generations.
These themes provided the basis for the City of Port Phillip's extended, and at times tough, negotiations with State Government over the last six months have resulted in a number of things being included in the Plan that Council is pleased about, as well as those that require more work to ensure Fishermans Bend will be a fantastic part of Port Phillip and Melbourne that we can genuinely be proud of.
The outcomes of these negotiations with State Government over the last six months are outlined below.
The release of the Strategic Framework Plan is an important milestone for FBURA. Council will continue to work closely with both current and future state governments as we continue to advocate for our community's priorities into the next phase of this 40-year urban renewal project.
Build transport and community infrastructure early and set aside open space
1. Inclusion of the Collins Street tram extension and better pedestrian and bike riding infrastructure
Council has consistently advocated for the Collins Street tram extension and is very pleased this vital piece of catalyst infrastructure is included in the SFP (pages 4, 5 and 17). The SFP also includes many of the strategic cycling corridors, pedestrian pathways and road upgrades recommended by Council in our efforts to facilitate a best practice approach to sustainable transport in Fishermans Bend.
We are continuing to work with the State Government on a short term funding and delivery strategy for the Collins Street tram extension, pedestrian and bike riding links.

2. Explicit infrastructure commitments
The infrastructure delivery table contained in the SFP (page 43) is a direct result of Council's sustained lobbying for explicit commitments to timely infrastructure delivery at Fishermans Bend. However, we are disappointed that delivery of the light rail tram service, including the Collins Street tram extension, has been pushed out from 2018 to 2023.
We must now work with the State Government to ensure that the documented commitments are honoured, and in some cases brought forward, so Fishermans Bend evolves as a sustainable and vibrant place that attracts a wide range of businesses, people and households.
Council is also working with the State Government on the Fishermans Bend Development Contributions Plan (DCP), which is due for release within the next 12 months. We will aim to ensure that the DCP includes the infrastructure program and funding strategy that will set Fishermans Bend up for long term success.
3. Increased public open space
Council has consistently emphasised the need for high quality public spaces and parks in Fishermans Bend to mitigate the impacts of high development densities. The open space network shown in the SFP is, in Council's view, the minimum acceptable, and a lot more work on open space is required (pages 18-19).
We have worked hard to supplement the proposed open space network with important links to existing parks and recreation facilities in Fishermans Bend, as well as to the Yarra River, Docklands, Port Phillip Bay, Westgate Park and surrounding open space destinations.
The green links and linear parks first contemplated in the Council's Montague Precinct Structure Plan have been included as a major feature of Fishermans Bend, capitalising on the opportunity offered by the precinct's existing wide streets.
All development is required to make an open space contribution equivalent to 8 per cent of site area – an increase from the State Government's standard requirement of 5 per cent. This reflects the importance of public open space to the future Fishermans Bend community.
Sensible height restrictions and quality design for developments
4. Reduced building height and intensity at sensitive interfaces
Council worked hard to ensure the SFP included sensitive building height and intensity provisions around all established residential areas, where the preferred maximum height is shown as four storeys (page 25). Council also successfully lobbied for an eight storey height limit in the historic, fine grained parts of the Montague Precinct, to help that precinct evolve with a distinctive character that recognises its historic significance.
Greater development intensity is permitted around the proposed Montague Station, along the proposed Plummer Street Civic Boulevard and northwards towards Docklands and the CBD.
We are disappointed that the heights in the Montague Precinct are 30 storeys instead of the 18 contained in the draft Vision, which we consistently argued for.
5. Protection for established open spaces and recreation facilities
Council conducted detailed analysis to ensure the SFP prohibited overshadowing of any existing public open spaces in Fishermans Bend. This includes JL Murphy Reserve and the Port Melbourne Cricket Ground. Overshadowing of future major parks is also prohibited, and solar access to smaller parks must be maximised under the SFP design guidance.
6. Establishment of a Design Review Panel
Council first advocated for a joint Design Review Panel when the Fishermans Bend project was being managed by Places Victoria. We are pleased to see the concept has gained support and been included in the SFP. We are looking forward to the panel's immediate establishment so that we can get on with the job of delivering high quality design and public realm outcomes for our community.
Business attraction and investment
7. A stronger emphasis on jobs and economic growth
Council is concerned that under the Capital City Zone, there is no formal method for controlling the land use mix in Fishermans Bend. While the market will deliver plenty of residential development, there is also a need to attract commercial development to ensure weekday activity, economic sustainability and jobs for Melbourne's future.
Council has emphasised the importance of catalyst transport infrastructure at Fishermans Bend to attract commercial development and jobs. While the Montague Station is welcome as a longer term proposal, the Collins Street tram extension is required in the short to medium term to connect Fishermans Bend with the CBD, to provide a high quality business address and stimulate job-generating investment.
City of Port Phillip responsibility for developments
8. Control over development near established residential areas
Council has successfully lobbied the State Government to maintain our status as the responsible authority for all planning applications that impact established residential areas around Fishermans Bend (four and eight storey areas shown on the FBURA height map, as well as all development under four stories everywhere else). This includes sensitive interfaces along Williamstown Road, Boundary Street and City Road, representing a significant proportion of the Fishermans Bend precinct. This means Council can better manage development in sensitive areas to protect and enhance the amenity of existing and future residents.
Council will be notified of any planning permit applications in the Fishermans Bend Urban Renewal Area and given 28 days to provide comments back to the Minister. Our comments will be considered at Council meetings prior to lodgement with the Minister.

We will continue to lobby the State Government to make us the responsible authority for all developments below 25,000 square metres (buildings approximately 18 storeys) in Fishermans Bend.
A place for all generations
9. Recognition of the FBURA Draft Vision
The Strategic Directions contained in the Draft Vision have been carried forward to the SFP, and the Key Moves have been translated into the final land use themes that will guide all future development.
10. Inclusion of sustainability goals
Council drafted the sustainability goals included in the SFP, as well as specific sustainability targets that were unfortunately omitted. We continue to advocate for the inclusion of specific targets, as well as further work on how Fishermans Bend can be a global demonstration of next generation buildings and infrastructure.
11. A commitment to affordable housing
Council's view is that the affordable housing provisions in the SFP are weak. We are seeking further commitments from the State Government regarding the development of a detailed affordable housing strategy for Fishermans Bend.
Concurrently, we will continue to work with landowners, developers and community groups to proactively facilitate housing diversity in the precinct. As part of this, we have allocated funding in the 2014/15 financial year to a joint affordable housing research initiative with the University of Melbourne, focussed specifically on defining a new affordable housing delivery model for Fishermans Bend.
12. Better recognition of Fishermans Bend's heritage
Council independently funded a comprehensive study of heritage significance in Fishermans Bend, to inform the State Government's work. The study identified a number of buildings with heritage significance and Council is now proposing they be protected as part of a specific Planning Scheme Amendment.
The design guidance in the SFP has been informed by Council's heritage study – however it is a starting point only. More work is required to protect and enhance the historic fabric of Fishermans Bend, as well as specific buildings and places.

The Fishermans Bend Urban Renewal Area (FBURA) will consolidate metropolitan Melbourne's position as one of the world's most liveable cities with a highly creative and competitive economy.
Over the next 40 years FBURA is expected to be home to approximately 80,000 residents and 40,000 jobs. As one of the largest urban renewal projects in the world, Council is committed to ensuring FBURA is a great place to live, work and play.
Council's priorities
Council will continue to advocate to:
- Deliver a 'city shaping' opportunity for metropolitan Melbourne – an expansion of the Central City while creating distinctive and vibrant new places to live, work and play
- Deliver catalyst transport and community infrastructure early
- Set a new benchmark for an inner-city family friendly living environment, supporting a diverse and connected community
- Capitalise on its strategic location to create high productivity '21st century' jobs, maintaining Melbourne's competitiveness in the global economy
- Provide essential urban infrastructure to create certainty for investment attraction
- Deliver best practice in smart social and environmental outcomes
- Provide an urban renewal model which can be replicated in other Australian cities.
The delivery of catalyst infrastructure early is critical to the success of FBURA and Council is continuing to advocate for the early delivery of infrastructure including transport, community facilities and open space.
Community Conversation
On 27 February, community members were invited to have a conversation about Council's role in FBURA.
The evening provided people with an opportunity to speak with officers around key themes that emerged during community consultation on the Draft Vision and to discuss next steps and timing, and included a presentation by representatives from the MPA.
A number of questions were taken on notice on the night. A summary of these questions and officer responses is available to download here.
Community Consultation on the Draft Vision and Interim Design GuidelinesFrom 16 September to 22 November 2013, Places Victoria ran a community engagement program, inviting the community to provide feedback on the Draft Vision and Interim Design Guidelines.

Interim Fishermans Bend Design Guidelines
(PDF, 1.64 MB, 22 p)
Council ran a complementary engagement program to encourage and support our community's interest and participation in the consultation process. The program included a series of pop-up information sessions, social media / online activity, site visits, and meetings with community organisations and groups.
- Community Engagement Summary Report (PDF, 5.36 MB, 28 p)
Feedback at these events provided great insight and helped shape Council's own submission to Places Victoria.
Council supports the Vision which represents an opportunity to reshape how Melbournians think about urban growth, housing, working and getting around. The submission explains Council's key comments about the delivery of the Vision and contains suggestions for improvements to the draft, in addition to results from our community engagement activities.

Fishermans Bend rezoned by Minister for Planning
In July 2012, Minister for Planning identified the Fishermans Bend Urban Renewal Area (FBURA) as an urban renewal project of state significance and rezoned the area as Capital City Zone (CCZ).
The rezoning of FBURA expands the CCZ by more than 50 per cent and has the potential to generate significant new business investment and employment and generate new housing supply. The renewal area is 248ha in size; approximately 217 hectares (or 90 %) lies within the City of Port Phillip. A smaller area of approximately 27 hectares, known as the Lorimer Precinct, is within the City of Melbourne.
Following the announcement, representatives of Places Victoria, the Department of Transport, Planning and Local Infrastructure, Melbourne City Council and Port Phillip Council worked closely to develop a planning framework for the FBURA, including a Draft Vision and Interim Design Guidelines, that articulate the key strategic directions and key moves needed to realise this vision and transform Fishermans Bend into a thriving inner city environment.
For more information about the Planning Scheme Amendment C102 see the Explanatory Report - Port Phillip Planning Scheme Amendment C102 (DOC, 470 KB, 5 pp.)
Where is Fishermans Bend located?
Fishermans Bend Urban Renewal Area is located to the south-west of Melbourne's CBD and covers an area of approximately 250 hectares. It is bound by Williamstown Road and Boundary Street in the south, City Road to the east, the West Gate Freeway and Lorimer Street to the north, and City Link and Todd Road to the west.
The area has four precincts:
- Montague
- Wirraway
- Sandridge
- Lorimer
This image illustrates where these four precincts are located.

Montague Precinct in the City of Port Phillip
Council has developed a Structure Plan for the Montague Precinct that will assist Places Victoria in planning for the current and future communities of Montague. It will also provide a strong basis from which Council can continue to advocate for the development of Montague as a highly liveable and sustainable mixed use precinct.
The Montague Precinct Structure Plan is available to download on Council's website at www.portphillip.vic.gov.au/montague-precinct-structure-plan.htm

FBURA Guiding Principles and Strategic Directions - 2012
Following the rezoning to CCZ in 2012 council adopted FBURA Guiding Principles and Strategic Directions to inform Council's position on the rezoning, and to advocate for Council's position on the key outcomes for FBURA.
The principles include creating a child and family friendly place that prioritises sustainable travel and the movement of people, and a precinct which is vibrant, well serviced, with a diverse mix of land uses, and a local community that welcomes everyone.

Action Movement for Renewal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Action Movement for Renewal (Mouvement Action Renouveau) is a political party in the Republic of the Congo. Its founder was Jean-Baptiste Tati Loutard, who was President of the MAR until his death in 2009 and also served in the government as Minister of State for Hydrocarbons. The party supports President Denis Sassou Nguesso[1] and its current President is Roland Bouiti-Viaudo, the Mayor of Pointe-Noire.
MAR held its constitutive congress in late December 2006, marking its transformation into a political party; 342 delegates attended the congress.[1] In the parliamentary election held on 24 June and 5 August 2007, the party won five out of 137 seats.[2]

If you are one of those in love with the spirit of adventure, consider using a pacsafe when going on a trip. These kinds of backpacks, wallets and other kind of bags allow you unlimited access to the content of your baggage. If you want to be safe at all times, use packs and backpacks with real locking mechanisms. These types of baggage are available for anyone, at reasonable prices. You can buy them online or directly from the shop. Make sure they are comfy and wide enough to keep all of your things inside. Not only big bags have such locks that protect your things against thieves, also handbags and pouches.
People who sleep in hostels are surrounded by others who also have to sleep in the same room. This is awful and also risky. The content of their luggage can be at all times stolen and taken away. This is why backpacks with safe locks need to be acquisitioned for tourists' belongings to be at all times safe. Don't be stressed that if a backpack or a bag you have used is thief proof it won't look nice and in trends. This type of luggage is also created under some designers' standards. Learn about travel accesories here.
Even big designers you see on the catwalk create bags for traveling. This doesn't mean they don't put good locks on them. On contrary, the more expensive the bag, probably the more safe it is. However, I suppose if you sleep in hostels it is impossible for you to purchase a $2,000 travel bag. But do not worry; day to day shops have their own nicely designed bags. The locks on them are obviously efficient and really workable. Don't hesitate to spend some money on such bags and handbags.
The greatest thing about traveling is that it offers a sense of adventure and freedom. If you stay up all night worrying about your things being stolen, you will no longer be able to enjoy the adventure spirit of the trip. It is essential to occupy your time with things you actually love to do. When you are thinking about your luggage, the entire vacation is absolutely spoiled. This kind of bags is available for any kind of belonging you may be carrying. They have safe bags for cameras, clothes and even money. Therefore, there are also safe locks for wallets. Keeping your money and your credit cards in a safe place is highly important.
