Make-a-Wish Foundation Gives Boy a Millennium Falcon
The Make-a-Wish Foundation granted this 9-year-old's request to have a Star Wars–themed fort in his backyard complete with a kick-ass construct of the fastest spaceship in the galaxy. It was delivered to Christian on Monday and serves as the topper to his illustrious fantasy fort.
"[The Falcon] even has solar-powered LED interior and exterior lighting," said Brandon of Little Mountain Productions.
Star Wars has not only been a source of entertainment for Christian, but it's also helping him battle through leukemia. "When he was first diagnosed, he carried his Xbox back and forth from the hospital," said his grandmother Tracy Clark.
The Millennium Falcon is so big that it took 14 people, including a bunch of well-built firefighters, to lift it onto the playhouse. The fort will hopefully serve as another escape for Christian who awoke Monday to stormtroopers and Imperial Guards standing next to his playhouse.

How AWESOME is that!!! The Make A Wish Foundation is just one of those out of this world (no pun intended) institutions that really MAKE A DIFFERENCE in a kid's life. I know that people all over the world need money. Who doesn't need money? But if my wish ever came true, it would be that our money here in the US would be donated here in the US to help all these wonderful kids. We would end hunger here in the US, were would find the cure for cancer here in the US (of couse it would then benefit the whole world, but if the answer is never found, who does it benefit???), etc... I think we give too much away that we cannot afford when there are so many here in dire straights... What about them? Nobody in another country is going to help them. Neither, it looks like, are we. Shame on us. Hooray for Make A Wish!!! Keep up the good, I mean GREAT work............

Way to go Make-a-Wish, that's one of the happiest kids I've ever seen.
Folks complaining about the world cup post - that's a bot, an automated message. It posts to most every comments section in AOL pages daily. It uses whatever daily subject is fed into it (today it's world cup), always followed by "My boyfriend thinks the same as me!" and is an advert for a shady dating site. We need AOL to filter that stuff but they don't seem to care. Email them and complain, because the computer program that posted that can't hear you.

Shoot for the stars little man!!!! Awsome job guys, I dont think I have ever seen a smile so BIG.

very impressive ,all the positive comments. usually every fool on the planet says crap,
sometimes i think all commentors are (fill in blank)
Friday 25 June
By Shayna
Actually, on AOL news articles, you can't comment on anything because (about a year later) they are still working out a way to prevent these commentors from commenting, but allow everyone to comtinue to comment. That is why AOL links to other articles. This article is on Asylum. You must complain to Asylum to filter these comments. Meanwhile clike the ! next to the article and - to vote it down. Eventually it will be removed. Back to the article, I smiled so much seeing this kid smile. Man this is every kids dream, to have this huge plaything to imagine and create stories in. He is so happy. Thank you, Make a Wish. Your work is much appreciated, thank you.

The Caisson Platoon of the 3d United States Infantry "The Old Guard". Old Guard Soldiers are in Arlington National Cemetery Daily Rendering Final Honors To Our Fallen, Both Past and Present.
The caissons were built in 1918, and used for 75mm cannons. They were originally equipped with ammunition chests, spare wheels, and tools used for the cannons. Today these have been removed and replaced with the flat deck on which the casket rests.
During the American Civil War The caisson was also a two-wheeled carriage. It carried two ammunition chests and a spare wheel. A fully loaded limber and caisson combination weighed 3,811 pounds (1728.6 kg). The limbers, caissons, and gun carriages were all constructed of oak. Each ammunition chest typically carried about 500 pounds (226.8 kg) of ammunition or supplies. In addition to these vehicles, there were also battery supply wagons and portable forges that were used to service the guns.

Northern Rail Trail Completion Celebration
About 50 to 60 family members, rail trail fans, dignitaries and at least 5 well behaved dogs attended the FNRTs Finish Line Celebration at Jamie Welch Park in Boscawen on Saturday, Oct. 4, 2014. Thank you, FNRT President Bob Ward for organizing this wonderful event marking the completion of building the last couple of miles of rail trail on the old Northern Railroad bed in Merrimack County.
The lineup of displays looked fabulous, especially FNRT board member Ellsworth Morton's handmade case & stand holding FNRTs collection of honors. Hot coffee and doughnuts were so welcome, thank you Dunkin Donuts of Boscawen. The music by the newly formed N.H. Rail Trail Band was rousing and the programs designed and printed by Charlie Darling, publisher of the Andover Beacon, were classy, beautiful keepsakes. Did you notice the gorgeous print of Lisa Jelleme Millers original oil painting of the view of Webster Farm from the rail trail in event publicity and on the program cover? Yes, that was her gift to the rail trail organization. Thank you, Lisa. And thank you, Pecco Beaufays of Highland Lake Inn (one of the rail trails two welcome centers) for coordinating the whole event program project.
Wasnt it wonderful that the Crowell family turned out in force and seemed genuinely pleased with being recipients of FNRTs highest honor, its golden spike award.
It was so nice seeing other interested parties share in the joy of the moment. Among the rail trail fans that gathered to celebrate on Oct. 4 were folks who represented supporting organizations or contributed muscle, administrative and/or financial support such as Chris Gamache of the NH Trails Bureau (who spoke), Dick Lemieux of the Merrimack River Greenway Trail, one of Kelly Ayotte's assistants, Larry Keniston of NH DOT, Representative Lorrie Carey, Leon Nelson and Mike Henderson of the Andover Snowmobile Club, Dave Murray of the Boscawen Town Line Trail Busters snowmobile club, Leigh Webb of the Franklin Historical Society, Bruce Crawford and Elaine Clow of the Boscawen Historical Society, FNRT volunteer trail work crew members board member Steve Rayno, Steve Robinson and Ricker Miller, to mention a few.
The displays by the Merrimack River Greenway and the Trails Bureau in addition to FNRTs handouts were very impressive and fun for folks to look over. FNRT volunteer Kent Hackmann gave away Fall Soonipi Magazines with the nice article about the rail trail in it and sold FNRT ball caps and memberships. The cap tree, made by volunteer John Monto, worked great. Look for the FNRT booth to pop up at area and rail trail events in the future.
The opening remarks and golden spike award were well received by the crowd. After listing all the officials and board members who couldn't attend, Bob got a good laugh when he mentioned that Daniel Webster also couldn't make it. Chris Gamache was a lively speaker and got rousing applause when he praised all involved for their work, passion and dedication. He says he heads the only stand-alone Trails Bureau in the country. In all other states, Trails Bureaus are a smaller part of some other state department. He applauded the completion of building the rail trail, a project that has been going on for 10 years, and which he sees his department supporting for many years to come.
Ben Crowell spoke lovingly of his Dad when he accepted the Golden Spike Award on behalf of FNRT's recognition of his family's huge contribution to trail building over the years. It was a sweet moment for all of those who remember his Dad, Peter Crowell, who loved building rail trail more than anyone.
And the arrival of Boscawen Selectman Roger Sanborn with his tractor and wagon was a welcome sight for the young people in the crowd and FNRT volunteer Kent Hackmann, who quickly abandoned his position at the FNRT booth to grab a seat.
Many took to the trail on foot or on bicycles after the official ribbon cutting ceremony to finish off the celebration by admiring the last miles of rail trail so recently added to the 31 miles already resurfaced for 4 season use in Merrimack County.

New Hampshires Northern Rail Trail
Named a Top Trail in U.S.
Concord, NH, 2012
The 52-mile Northern Rail Trail in New Hampshire has been named to the list of
100 Top Trails in the U.S
. by the Rails to Trails Conservancy in Washington, D.C. The trail is one of the longest in New England and the longest in New Hampshire. The trail crosses the State of New Hampshire from Lebanon in the Connecticut River Valley to Boscawen, on the Merrimack just north of Concord. A westward extension of the trail toward Vermont from downtown Lebanon as part of the Mascoma River Greenway is in development and would put its final length at 59 miles.
Chris Gamache, Bureau Chief for the New Hampshire Bureau of Trails, said New Hampshire should be proud of the designation. The Northern Rail Trail is a year-round recreational treasure thanks to the cooperative efforts of the New Hampshire Bureau of Trails, local snowmobile clubs and the Friends of the Northern Rail Trail groups in Merrimack and Grafton Counties.

Lovely, tasty cookies that go down as soon as they're cooled. My brother loves them. If you want flat cookies, flatten them to about 1cm thick.
Recipe by: lmward
The best vegan cookies I have ever eaten! I found this recipe online and modified it a bit and... wow! My friends with dairy or egg allergies and even those without any at all come to munch on these cookies when they are baked. Some of the ingredients are quite specific, eg flax meal and molasses, but I promise it is an investment in delicious cookies. You can mix up the chocolate for dried fruit, etc., but I recommend chocolate, yum!
Recipe by: Katie_May_Kress
These cookies have a crumbly shortbread style texture and are egg-free, perfect if you're out of eggs but have a cookie craving! They are not overly sweet, but the golden syrup and brown sugar gives them a lovely hint of caramel. You can add any chocolate you prefer; I have tried crushed mini eggs at Easter, dark chocolate chips, and my family's favourite of milk chocolate chopped into fairly large chunks :D Really hope you enjoy these as much as we do! You should get nine cookies out of this dough.
Recipe by: lily5381
These cookies are super tasty and great for allergy sufferers or simply for days when you crave cookies but are out of eggs!
Recipe by: daisycharlo
Especially for chocolate chip lovin' kids out there, who can't have eggs or nuts!
Recipe by: AUSSIEBEAR
This chocolate chip cookie recipe uses yogurt instead of eggs. It's perfect for birthday parties if you're worried about some kids having an allergy to eggs. They turn out nice and crisp with a terrific flavour; easy to make, too.
Recipe by: Kim Chin
Soft and chewy cookies with crunchy Smarties and egg free too. You can use chocolate chips is your prefer :)
Recipe by: twinkle_toesxxx
These egg-free cookies are absolutely awesome. They taste a little like gingerbread with chocolate chips and raisins. Enjoy with a big mug of tea or coffee.
Recipe by: LAURE2
This is a wonderful recipe when there are no eggs in the house and you have to make cookies. They are a very moist cookie and freeze well.
Recipe by: Arlene Hansberger
I developed a dairy free, gluten free chocolate chip cookie recipe. This updated classic is one of my favourites.

Book Description:
An extraordinary and dramatic tale of shipwrecks, underwater discovery, and the dawn of the golden age of piracy.On January 2, 1678, a fleet of French ships sank in the Caribbean Sea, one hundred miles off the Venezuelan coast, on the killer reef of Las Aves Island. These wrecks, which claimed more than 1,200 lives, proved disastrous for French naval power in the region and sparked the rise of a golden age of piracy, an era that was forever to alter the shape of the Americas. In The Lost Fleet, writer, explorer, and deep-sea diver Barry Clifford interweaves the dramatic tale of this maritime catastrophe -- and the dangerous upsurge of piracy in the world's seas -- with the contemporary account of his own expedition to document and explore the wrecks.Tracing the lives of fabled pirates like the Chevalier de Grammont, Nikolaas Van Hoorn, Thomas Paine, and Jean Comte d'EstrÉes, The Lost Fleet delivers a stunning portrait of a dark age, rich with historical detail and romantic drama. Toward the end of the eighteenth century, the outcasts of European society came together to form a democracy of buccaneers, settling on a string of islands off the African coast. From there, the pirates made their fame and fortune by haunting the world's oceans, wreaking havoc on the settlements along the Spanish main and -- often enlisted by French and English governments -- sacking ships, ports, and coastal towns. Now, two hundred and fifty years later, Barry Clifford has followed the pirates' destructive wake around the world all the way back to Venezuela. With the help of a remarkably accurate map, drawn by Jean Comte d'EstrÉes (the captain of the lost French fleet) himself, Clifford was able to locate the exact site of the disaster and the wreckage of the once mighty armada. Beautifully told, epic in scope, and steeped in period detail, The Lost Fleet is a mesmerizing account of historical discovery and underwater reclamation for anyone with a heart for adventure and history, myth, and treasure hunting.

Catullus 85
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Catullus 85 is a poem by the Roman poet Catullus for his mistress Lesbia.
- "Odi et amo. quare id faciam, fortasse requiris?
- nescio, sed fieri sentio et excrucior."
- I hate and I love. Perhaps you ask why I do this?
- I do not know, but I feel it happen and I am torn apart.
Its declaration of conflicting feelings "I hate and I love" (in Latin, Odi et amo) is renowned for its force and brevity. Moreover, the second line of the poem is chiastic insofar as a passive verb form follows every active verb form (nescio (active) - fieri (passive) - sentio (active) - excrucior (passive)).
The meter of the poem is the elegiac couplet.
Musical settings[edit]
- "Odi et amo" No. 19 of "Moralia" by composer Jacobus Gallus
- "Odi et amo" part of Catulli Carmina by composer Carl Orff
- Odi et amo by composer Jóhann Jóhannsson off the album Englabörn.

- Shopping Bag ( 0 items )
From the Publisher"Wiman attains intensity often enough to remind you of just how great Frost was, and often there is a touch of another of his masters, Richard Wilbur . . . But the best thing to say about Wiman is not that he reminds you of previous poets: It's that he makes you forget them." —Clive James, The Financial Times
"One of the best books of poetry written in the past twenty years. It is extraordinary." —John Poch
"Every poem seems made to steady and fortify him against mortality." —Dan Chiasson, The New Yorker (one of the ten best books of 2010)
"One of the preeminent devotional poets of any faith now writing in English." —David J. Rothman, First Things
"An ecstatic ruckus worthy of Gerard Manley Hopkins, who also tasted the tears in things—and the holy too." —Dana Jennings, The New York Times
"Wiman has found in Every Riven Thing his true voice, alternately edgy and relaxed, taut and unfettered. There's fear and grief, to be sure, but also consolation and humor." —Kevin Nance, Poets & Writers
"The work here is searingly honest and beautifully crafted, and it establishes Wiman in his most important public role: a gifted poet whose work cannot be ignored." —Elizabeth Lund, The Christian Science Monitor
"This is haunting stuff—this is language turned and tuned to a pitch where it is both quiet scream and humble song." —Brian Doyle, The Christian Century
"Few poets have been able to pull off contemplative/metaphysical poetry in the 20th and 21st centuries. Our detached sensibilities make that level of immersion feel overly forced. It can come off as both too submerged and too transcendent. We'd rather float. But Wiman makes a case for going old school. He dives right in to sentiment but swims up with hardly a drop of sentimentality. He asks for belief but never sounds fatuous. We are a god hungry nation. Politicians know it, and it just might be time for poets to know it. Wiman, in this case, is ahead of the curve." —Dean Rader, The Rumpus
"Christian Wiman is fiercely dedicated to describing experiences for which there are no words—an ambition shared with many poets today. But few contemporary poets invite us to consider new ways of looking at those experiences as openly, intensely, and originally as he does." —Mike Puican, TriQuarterly
"Wiman . . . writes with the gravity, awe, and humility of one who has been riven but lived to tell the tale, as well as ask the questions and pray the prayers that follow the experience of being broken . . . [His] use of violent imagery is reminiscent of Donne, while his reverence and musicality echo Hopkins, but the voice is his own." —Image Update
"Christian Wiman, the visionary editor of Poetry magazine, has written a book so urgent that the poems feel carved into the skin. Looming large over Every Riven Thing is Wiman's diagnosis with a rare form of cancer, but Wiman never slips into keening or self-dramatization; neither does he let the prospect of his death hurry his prosody. Instead, quite miraculously, he uses his considerable craft — measured, assured, but never belaboured — to slow what little time he may have left, and savour it in language as lush and full of pathos as one is likely to encounter in contemporary verse. He writes: 'To love is to feel your death / given to you like a sentence, / to meet the judge's eyes / as if there were a judge, / as if he had eyes / and love." In doing so he reminds us that serious craft has an ethical, as well as aesthetic, quality to it.' —Michael Lista, National Post
"I think you should go read this book, right now, and throw yourself into its brutal, beautiful simplicity . . . Wiman's poems speak of a survival, and a hope, that is neither bleak nor sentimental, but real and good and true. Praise to that, and to Wiman's reverence, which only has the power to assist our own." —Allison Backous, Comment
"His is a world of acute insight into the human questions—of mortality, of God, of nature—rendered without proselytizing, without prognosis. He just observes, and still questions. He's as at home on the trains of the city as he is on the range of his native West Texas. He believes in God, yet leads us into the existential void, into the terror of the terminal soul. His illness sharpens his vision; his words are radiated. And yet, he's funny, using humor to disarm the darkness that lies within reach of his questions." —Brian Hieggelke, Newcity
"Christian Wiman . . . writes poems that are a study in torque, full of twisting force, words and lines pushing and pulling each other into forms of astonishing solidity and grace. His third collection, Every Riven Thing, is a beautiful and wrenching dialogue with death, decay, and the divine and is one of the best books of poems published last year." —Jill Owens, PowellsBooks.Blog

Ok so took a test mon was negative. Well woke up and had to pee so freaking bad went ahead and took the other one was planing on waiting till next mon but it was there couldnt help it . It was the clear blue digital says pregnant so I know it really is saying its positive but can it be wrong? Im trying not to get my hopes up but its not working. :-) I brought my husband his coffee and put it on his night stand then put the test beside it... but all he said was dont get to excited. :-( we mc for the first time in nov and it hit us pretty hard. So I am worried that im going to mc again but wish my husband was alil more excited with me. Told him later after he woke up more that I was getting the feeling that he was upset about it and he said no just trying not to be excited yet. Has anyones man done that? Was telling him bye this morning at the door like always and he said gotta go make this money and I said yea for your family of 5 then he looked at me and said 6 so that made me feel better. After a mc and when u get pregnant again do u go to the doc more often or sooner then others? Gonna call my doc when they open but just kind i wanted to know to make me calm down some. Thanks sorry so long
i would say pregnant and your first test was diluted
K thanks was starting to worry I was alone on here no one was replying back
Quoting mommakatof3:" K thanks was starting to worry I was alone on here no one was replying back"
you can always take a blood test to be sure.
Ive seen digitals be pregnant before when it was a false negtive.. But its not common at all...
Id go get some FRER at the store later and call your doctor to make an appt and tell them you juwt found out and are nervous since you had a MC. They may want to do blood tests to check levels. But unless you have had more than 1 miscarriage they dont normally do anything special so early. If your levels are low like progesterone they may have you take supplements.
BUT CONGRATS!!!! We are about to bew a family of 6! sounds nuts!
With my last pregnancy I got a negative and next day a positive. I would call the Dr and schedule a visit.they may label you high risk due to the mcbut not necessarily.

Quoting ☮ Phuket:" Ive seen digitals be pregnant before when it was a false negtive.. But its not common at all... Id ... [snip!] ... low like progesterone they may have you take supplements. BUT CONGRATS!!!! We are about to bew a family of 6! sounds nuts!"

My sons name is Jonah :)
Thanks ladies im so excited
Hope you're able to get in touch with your doctor soon and get the answer you're looking for...keep us posted!
My husband was absolutely numb to the fact I was pregnant until we went for our ultrasounds, don't worry mama he will come around :) in the mean time CONGRATS!!!!
K thanks im hopeing he will come around to be more excited but I understand he doesnt want to get excited and then it fall apart like last time. But it was morning time when I sprung the news maybe he just needs it to sink in.
So just called my doc he made me an appt for the 3rd of april good it seems so far away but I had to have a morning appt so I could be back I will be back up to pick up my lil girl from school... they are gonna do a blood test and a urine test and go from there everyone keep fingers crossed for me thanks will let yall know what they say
how far long were you when you miscarried?
I was around 7 almost 8 weeks

Sports Illustrated released a re-draft of the 2013 lottery Friday, and a familiar name was first off the board.
If the Cavaliers could do it all over again, SI's Rob Mahoney believes Cleveland would select Giannis Antetokounmpo first overall, rather than Anthony Bennett. In fact, Mahoney has Bennett falling all the way to Utah with the ninth pick. Considering what the UNLV product has shown thus far, even that reassessment seems a bit optimistic.
In terms of Giannis, here's what Mahoney had to say:
"By no means am I ready for initiation into the Cult of Giannis, but such a remarkable 19-year-old prospect at a position of weakness for the Cavs might be too good to pass up. Anteotkounmpo clearly benefits from substandard competition. There aren't any immediate stars of this bunch, and thus it seems prudent for Cleveland to make a play for a young, versatile contributor who could well become the best talent of this class."
The Cult of Giannis? The word "cult" typically carries some negative connotations, but I'm more than on board with it in this case. Plus, if the Bucks are ever looking to name a seating section at the Bradley Center after the rookie, I think they've found their title.
Of the 14 lottery selections, Mahoney did not have a single selecting the same player it did on draft night. Shabazz Muhammad and Otto Porter dropped out of the lottery completely, while Mason Plumlee (14) and Tim Hardaway, Jr. (5) made significant leaps.
Check out the re-draft in its entirety here.

As ugly as it's been for the Mets over the last month and change, now is not the time to enter panic mode. It's not the time to start dealing players left and right, and it's not the time to start worrying or pondering about another rebuild.
The 2014 Mets, like most expected, are very likely not going to contend for anything. Instead, their goal in 2014 may be finishing with a .500 or better record for the first time since 2008.
After five straight losing seasons, most fans are alternating between angry and apathetic. The failure of ownership to allow the front office to spend on the best offensive upgrades available has been a major talking point, and the crowds at Citi Field are shrinking as the summer nears.
However, that doesn't mean the Mets are going in the wrong direction.
The Mets, with starting pitching as their foundation in the majors and throughout all levels of the organization, are still headed in the right direction – even though it's not reflected in the standings at the moment.
With the pitching the Mets have at the big league level and advancing through the minor leagues, as well as the back-end of the bullpen taking shape, they should be able to put together a dominant pitching staff while using the excess pieces to deal for the offense they so badly need.
In 2015, the Mets are set to have a starting rotation headlined by Matt Harvey, Zack Wheeler, and Noah Syndergaard. That rotation will likely be rounded out with whoever the Mets decide not to trade between Jon Niese, Dillon Gee, Bartolo Colon, Jacob deGrom, and perhaps Rafael Montero.
In the bullpen, the switch of Jenrry Mejia to closer, the emergence of Jeurys Familia as a legitimate late-inning arm, and the performance of Vic Black has stabilized what has been a mess all too often.
Add to that the return of Josh Edgin's velocity and the prospect of getting Bobby Parnell back from Tommy John surgery in 2015 and the Mets appear to be in tremendous position pitching-wise.
With a potentially dominant starting rotation (that's also young and inexpensive) and a bullpen that appears to be taking shape, the Mets are two thirds of the way to being a formidable overall team.
The last step, of course, will be righting the ship offensively.
At the moment, it appears that the Mets have only four positions that are settled: David Wright at third base, Juan Lagares in center field, Curtis Granderson in either right field or left field, and Daniel Murphy at second base (although they might deal Murphy, who is arbitration eligible after the season).
The Mets have some hitting prospects who are getting closer, such as Brandon Nimmo, Dilson Herrera, and Dominic Smith, but those players are all a few years away.
In order to take the final step that makes them contenders as early as 2015, the Mets will have to improve the offense through both trades and free agency.
As is noted above, the Mets should be able to use some of their starting pitching to acquire offensive improvements – needed badly in the outfield and at shortstop.
With Travis d'Arnaud currently in Triple-A Las Vegas attempting to find his swing, the Mets may also have an issue on their hands at catcher. If d'Arnaud does fail, though, the club will likely turn to Kevin Plawecki before seeking an external solution.
Regardless of what happens with d'Arnaud, the Mets are close.
They'll need to make smart trades and spend wisely, but the full rebuild is just about over. The final steps needed to make the Mets legitimate contenders haven't yet been taken, but the rest of the pieces are in place.

Tariq al Hashimi was born in 1942 in Baghdad, Iraq, into the Mashhadan tribe. From 1959 until 1962, he studied at a military academy. He earned a bachelor's degree in economics from al Mustansiriyah University in 1969, and a master's in 1978. At the age of 33, he left the military and became active in the Iraqi Islamic Party, serving on its planning committee.
Hashimi's party represented the largest Sunni block in parliament after the 2005 election. Hashimi opposes federalism, wants oil revenues distributed based on population, de-Baathification reversed and more Sunnis in the new military and police.

Princess Anne's(and CPRE's) Niavity on Village Housing
Princess Anne has fallen for the false 'spits and spots' of rural housing argument the conservatives fell for before the last election.
New homes should be built in existing villages and market towns instead of as part of sprawling new developments of up to 15,000 plots, the Princess Royal has said.
She argued it would be better for existing rural communities to take the brunt of the 240,000 new homes needed each year.
Her comments will add fuel to the political debate over how to provide the number of homes needed without damaging the countryside.
Nick Clegg called recently for the Government to be "honest and upfront" about plans to build garden cities in the South East.
The Deputy Prime Minister said that planned cities were a better option than piecemeal developments.
But the Princess, speaking as patron of the English Rural Housing Trust, said: "Is it really necessary to only think in terms of large-scale developments where you might add 10,000 or 15,000 in a block, where you require infrastructure to be installed?"
She suggested it would be more efficient to build small scale developments in existing communities: "Maybe it isn't such good value if you have to build in the facilities that need to go with it.
"You will need a new school, you will need new shops, you will need to create a community centre. But for many of the small-scale developments you already have that."
In a speech at a housing conference in Cheltenham, she added: "240,000 houses sounds an awful lot until we identify the amount of villages and market towns there are."
Ok over the next 15 years we need nationally to plan for 3.75 million new homes from household formation plus a 1 million home backlog (approximately of course), for sake of argument lets say around half of that is identified already in development plans and another 10% occurs through windfalls. If you divide that amongst England's roughly 10,000 villages thats around 230 houses per village. Ive been doing similar calculations since the 2007 Housing Green Paper and warning that unless we have large scale growth areas it would mean the swamping of English Villages and warned thats exactly what we would see with the NPPF if, as as happened, it also cancelled Ecotowns and Growth areas – now ask yourselves is that just what we have seen? Have we not seen planning application for in total several hundred homes now swamping villages.
Shaun Spiers, the chief executive of CPRE, said: "These are welcome words from Princess Anne. We want a living countryside, not a countryside of commuter villages or retirement ghettoes.'
Bit I thought the CPRE were supposed to be protecting the countryside?
Posted on February 24, 2014, in urban planning. Bookmark the permalink. 16 Comments.
The CPRE has been hijacked. Here in East Devon the chair of the local CPRE argued at the local plan inspection 2weeks ago for deregistering all protection of the Exe Estuary – a major wetlands site – to enable development.
From all my research I have concluded that there are over 40,000 villages in the UK so it would not be 240 per village!
Many villages I know can take over 240 new dwellings in the next 15 years without destroying them.
The problem is that many villages, 42 out of 60 in our newly approved core strategy here in Selby District, Yorkshire, have no planned allocation so they are to be left to stagnate and continue to lose services, schools, transport, pubs etc etc
But why would you want to build in villages if people can (first) be accommodated in new towns, cities and old towns where, increasingly, many of them prefer to live? Higher densities are much easier to achieve in new towns, cities and towns and they (mostly) have better infrastructure to cope with the changes.
And still no-one mentions the thousands upon thousands of empty properties (and second and third homes) all over the place.
>why would you want to build in villages if people can (first) be accommodated in new towns
For one thing because we want a countryside not a heritage attraction, and we want people who work there to live there.
The thousands upon thousands of empty and derelict buildings in National Parks have just been mentioned, and that caused various heritagey-type people to have apoplexy attacks. Put them back in their box!
I think the alleged 3.75 million new homes required number can be addressed from the supply side too; simply reversing the atomisation of households *slightly* would make a major dent, as would dealing with the habit of certain councils (eg Oxford) from attempts to prevent professionals living in shared houses.
A couple of new houses per average village per year is not sprawl; it is organic development. And that would give us 10-20% of our need, in line with the degree of urbanisation of the population.
The 'problem' of development in our villages has been discussed for decades.
(I have several text books on the topic : some new, some decades old)
It simply comes down to one thing : 'gentrification'.
The farming community is now a small minority in the countryside and the villages are full of white, middle class, well educated, influential commuters and pensioners.
All the fancy arguments from those seeking to 'protect the countryside' can be repackaged as "I'm all right Jack".
Homes for the riff-raff can be built in towns and on brownfield sites.
The sad thing is that many/most villages have lost any sense of community and their shops, pubs etc are rapidly disappearing.
Additionally many village houses are relatively modern bungalows and the like.
So what are we 'protecting' exactly?
I feel that if we have a chance of revitalising villages by allowing their size to increase, then go for it. Perhaps the increased population will allow village shops and other businesses to survive, or be reinstated?
Is this 'sprawl'? I think not : there is a LOT of countryside out there!
We have missed an opportunity : 'Rural Regeneration' has been a hot topic for decades and there have been several reports on the topic.
See for example "Matthew Taylor report: Living, Working Countryside (2008)".
Yet, despite all these reports and initiatives, nothing ever happens : the village dwellers together with their district councillors and the local planning departments plus the CPRE ensure that only the 'right sort' can live in the villages.
Well, the wheels have come off the cart now : decades of over-restrictive housing policies have led to a huge shortfall in housing – and sadly that means the villages will end up with huge housing developments being plonked down nearby.
All this makes one wonder why Planning is called Planning …..
Build too much in a village and it becomes a town without a town's infrastructure. There is an assumption that villages can only grow. The reality is that many people – such as pensioners, for example – are now choosing to live in towns and cities whereas before they lived in villages. No-one would disagree that villages should take their share of development – but what exactly is their share?
>> Build too much in a village and it becomes a town without a town's infrastructure.
.. but at a certain critical size infrastructure should/could emerge in support of the increased population.
In the future energy costs – and transport costs – will rise whilst broadband etc will increase in performance & penetration.
At the same time farms may need to gradually increase their workforces.
All this could lead to increasingly vibrant villages with more local busineses and less commuting.
Or if the current 'build nothing in the country' tendency continues we may see villages being abandoned by all except the very rich.
I think that we need to think about the strategic aspects earlier rather than later.
In the 40 years from around 1965 there were 152 new homes built in our village all were sustainable and lived in, since then only 1 has been completed and is lived in, 3 have been demolished.
If the sustainable trend had continued we would have had 34 more new homes built up to present day (the backlog) and planning for 57 to be built over the next 15 years, continued organic growth that would help maintain the villages dynamics and services.
That is what villages need!!!
As it is we are to have no plannned development according to the recently signeed off Core Strategy for Selby District,

SUMMARY In January 1993, Be University of Idaho, in cooperation with Kittelson and Associates, Ruhr University, and Queensland University of Technology, initiated work on NCHRP 346 to develop new capacity and level of service analysis procedures for unsignalized intersections. This report is Me second of two volumes documenting He work completed for this project. Volume one describes the work completed for two-way stop-con~olled intersections. Volume two includes eight chapters documenting He work completed for as-way stop- con~olled (AWSC) intersections. A new data base describing traffic operations at AWSC ~ntersecdons was assembled as part of this study. Thirty unique sites were videotaped during 41 different time penods. In most cases, four video cameras were used at each site producing over 150 individual videotapes. A total of 151.67 hours of usable data was acquired. Field observations chow Hat AWSC intersections operate in either two-phase or four-phase patterns, based primarily on He complexion of the intersection geometry. Flows are determined by a consensus of right of way that alternates between the north-south and east-west steams (for a s~ngle-lane approach) or proceeds in turn to each intersection approach (for a multi-lane approach intersection). The basic parameter used to compute intersection capacity is saturation headway. Based on data from over 22,000 vehicle records, it was found dlat He saturation headway is dependent on (~) He degree of conflict faced by the subject driver as measured by He presence of vehicles on the opposing and conflicting approaches, (2) the ~ntersechon geometry, particularly He number of lanes on He conflicting approaches, He opposing approach, and He subject approach, (3) the directional movements of the interacting vehicles, and (4) the vehicle type. New models for estimating saturation headway, service ~me, capacity, and delay are recommended. The models were subject to a series of validation tests using the data collected as part of this study. Level of service forecasts produced by He new set of models are of better quality than those produced by He existing 1994 HCM Update procedure. ~ addidon, the severe range restrictions now a part of He 1994 procedures will no longer apply Bus giving He practicing traffic engineer He capability to produce good quality forecasts for a much wider range of traffic conditions Man is possible today. . . ,

The power to substitute assets out of a trust for other assets of equal value creates Grantor status in a trust, i.e. the Grantor is taxed on the trust income. I wrote a memo today about whether such power is sufficient to include trust assets in the grantor's estate. The information is useful for those considering forming a IDGT in the last few months of the year. Spoiler: it wont. The memo follows.
Whether the power under 26 USC § 675(4)(C) [1] to substitute trust assets with assets of equal value will cause inclusion in decedent's taxable estate.
The mere power to substitute trust assets with assets of equal value will not cause inclusion in decedent's taxable estate.
An Intentionally Defective Grantor Trust (IDGT) is a trust that intentionally runs afoul of one of the Grantor rules contained in Sections 671 through 679 of the Internal Revenue Code. Giving to the Grantor one of these powers causes the trust to be disregarded for income tax purposes such that income of the trust is taxed to the Grantor. While originally considered a detriment, the Grantor rules have been used to create tax benefits, allowing clients to shift wealth to beneficiaries.
The power to substitute trust assets with assets of equal value is such a "Grantor Power" under IRC 675(4)(C), [2] which states that the grantor shall be treated as an owner when he has a power to reacquire trust corpus by substituting other property of an equivalent value.
Even though the Grantor is treated as the owner of a Grantor Trust for income tax purposes, he or she is not necessarily treated as the owner for estate tax purposes. The estate tax inclusion rules are applied separately to make the latter determination.
IRC 2038 includes in the decedent's estate any property over which the he had the power alter, amend, revoke, or terminate a beneficiary's beneficial interest. [3]
In crafting IDGTs, estate planners utilize powers that will cause the Grantor to be treated as the owner for income tax purposes, but not for estate tax purposes. Such crafting is delicate and dangerous, though, because a mistake could cause a Grantor to be treated as the owner for both purposes.
The question in this case is whether the power to substitute trust assets of equal value under IRC 675(4)(C) will cause estate inclusion under IRC 2038 (power to alter, amend, revoke, or terminate an interest). Precedent dictates that it will not. The possession of a power to substitute assets of equal value is not a power to alter, amend, or revoke because substitutions that result in shifting benefits between the income interest or remaindermen do not satisfy the definition of "equal value." In other words, a power to substitute trust assets of equal value implies against the holder a fiduciary requirement to treat income interests and remaindermen equally; therefore such an interest cannot implicate 2038 power to alter, amend, revoke, or terminate an interest
The IRS specifically ruled on this issue in Estate of Jordahl v. Commissioner[4]. In Jordahl, Grantor funded an Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust (ILIT). He acted as trustee, and retained for himself a power to substitute property "of equal value." The court first noted that a different power, the power to direct investments, is not a power to "alter, amend, revoke, or terminate." Since decedent's substitution power (assuming equal value) was no more a power to alter than that involved in directing investments, such substitution power did not implicate 2038.
Second and more importantly, the court said that the words "equal value" bound Jordahl, in equity, to treat income beneficiaries and remaindermen equally, i.e. he could not alter, amend, revoke, or terminate their interests (thus avoiding 2038). The court said:
The Commissioner argues that decedent could, through substitution, institute investment in highly productive property to deprive the remaindermen of benefits or, similarly, in unproductive property to deprive an income beneficiary of property. We do not believe that decedent could have used his power to shift benefits in such a manner. Substitutions resulting in shifted benefits would not be substitutions of property 'of equal value.'
Thus the very language of Jordahl's power to substitute property of "equal value" could not implicate 2038.
Some literature raises an objection to this analysis. [5] However, the objection is based on a misapprehension of the court's reasoning in Jordahl. It states:
The power [to substitute assets of equal value in Jordahl] was held in a fiduciary capacity… Thus, some practitioners believe that it is uncertain whether a nonfiduciary substitution power can cause estate tax inclusion.
The statement seems to suggest that if Jordahl had not been a trustee, his power to substitute assets of equal value may have caused estate tax inclusion because he would not have been bound by fiduciary duties. It says, "there are no reported cases in which the IRS attempted to distinguish between the fiduciary power of Jordahl and a nonfiduciary power." But this is a misapprehension. In Jordahl, the court found that the very words "equal value," imputed to the Grantor a fiduciary duty, i.e. such duties were inherent in the grant and could not be separated from the requirement of equal value. Jordahl said, "Even if decedent were not a trustee, he would have been accountable to the succeeding income beneficiary and remiandermen in equity…"
PLR 9413045[6] affirms the result in Jordahl, the underlying reasoning, and that it did not depend on Jordahl's acting as trustee. The facts in PLR 9413045 were similar to Jordahl: taxpayers settled an ILIT and retained the right, "to reacquire… trust corpus by substituting other property of an equivalent value…" In this case, however, taxpayers were not acting as trustees. To determine whether settlor's substitution powers would prompt estate inclusion under 2038, the IRS adopted and restated precisely the reasoning from Jordahl:
In [Jordahl] the court held that the possession of a right to substitute assets was not a power to alter, amend, or revoke the trust for purposes of § 2038. The trust agreement in Estate of Jordahl specifically provided that any property substituted must be of equal value to the property replaced. The court held that substitutions resulting in the shifting of benefits to either enhance the income beneficiary or the remaindermen would not be substitutions of property of "equal value"… The court held that the decedent, even if he had not been a trustee, was under a fiduciary duty to treat the income beneficiaries and remaindermen equitably.
Accordingly, in PLR 9413045 the corpus of the taxpayers' trust would not be included in their estate under 2038.
A final note on the implementation of the power to substitute assets of equal value. Courts hold an extremely narrow view of "equal value," i.e. what assets may substitute into a trust. [7],[8] Thus such a power is most useful to create Grantor status without estate inclusion, not as a power to be utilized in fact.
The precedent of Jordahl and PLR 9413045 dictate that the power under 26 USC § 675(4)(C) to substitute trust assets with assets of equal value will not cause inclusion in decedent's taxable estate.
[1] 26 USC § 675(4)(C) – Administrative powers, General powers of adminestration
The grantor shall be treated as the owner of any portion of a trust in respect of which a power of administration is exercisable in a nonfiduciary capacity by any person without the approval or consent of any person in a fiduciary capacity. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "power of administration" means, [inter alia,] a power to reacquire the trust corpus by substituting other property of an equivalent value.
[2] See FN 1, Supra.
[3] The value of the gross estate shall include the value of all property to the extent of any interest therein of which the decedent has at any time made a transfer (except in case of a bona fide sale for an adequate and full consideration in money or money's worth), by trust or otherwise, where the enjoyment thereof was subject at the date of his death to any change through the exercise of a power (in whatever capacity exercisable) by the decedent alone or by the decedent in conjunction with any other person (without regard to when or from what source the decedent acquired such power), to alter, amend, revoke, or terminate, or where any such power is relinquished during the 3 year period ending on the date of the decedent's death.
[5] Drafting California Irrevocable Trusts § 3.41 (3d ed Cal CEB 2006)
[6] I.R.S. Priv. Ltr. Rul. 9413045 (Apr. 1, 1994)
[7] Language in PLR 9413045 suggests that only a life insurance can substitute in for a trust-owned life insurance policy and be of "equal value." The letter says, "In the case of an insurance policy the only asset that should be of equal value would be another insurance policy with 'equal cash surrender and face value, comparable premiums, and a similar form of policy.'"
[8] One Technical Advice Memo has held that a power to substitute assets of equal value, on the facts of that particular case, was tantamount to a power to withdraw assets (thus includable) because the economic reality of the Grantor's powers allowed for extracting assets less than equal value. There, the "purchase price" was predetermined far below FMV, the assets could be withdrawn in exchange for a note at an extremely favorable rate, and the grantor was the remainderman in fact. The memo distinguished from Jordahl by stating that though the instrument recited an "equal value" requirement, the power in fact allowed extracting value for less than "equal value." I.R.S. Tech.Adv.Mem. 8330004 (Mar. 16, 1983).

Are female writers masochists? Are their editors sadists?
Anna Blundy on women who write for the Daily Mail:
I have lots of journalist friends who have been invited to stitch themselves up, expose themselves far beyond what they intended and make themselves look stupid in words and pictures all for a bit of book publicity and a few hundred quid. I am not denying that we do this to ourselves, but the process is designed to produce an article that we did not initially know we were writing. It is a very complex deception.
Virginia Heffernan on women who write for Tina Brown:
Tina, my onetime boss, from whom in the late 1990s I learned the dark arts of buzz production, loves to seduce and betray female writers. And she's got skills. As she once proudly told the editorial team at her short-lived magazine Talk, she likes to ask lady writers to deliver humiliating "personal histories" that feature self-loathing and lurid intimate disclosures.

Chris Brown tested positive for marijuana recently in Virginia, where smoking weed is illegal, but the judge said she would NOT revoke his probation.
Chris was just in court for a probation progress report hearing in his felony battery of Rihanna -- and according to probation report docs ... Brown failed a drug test on June 18 in Virginia, where he was fulfilling his court ordered community service.
According to the probation report, Chris told his probation officer he had smoked weed in California -- where he has a medical marijuana prescription -- and then failed the test in Virginia, where weed is illegal ... prescription or no prescription.
Judge Patricia Schnegg said she never ordered Brown to undergo mandatory drug testing as part of his probation, so she cut him a break ... this time ... letting him off with a stern reminder to obey all laws.
Schnegg also ordered Brown's entire case moved back to California because that's where he lives now.
Judge Schnegg also ordered Brown to meet with his probation officer within 72 hours to sort out a discrepancy in community service hours -- prosecutors say he had 121 hours left to complete as of August 15th, but Chris' attorney, Mark Geragos insists he has less than that on his tab.
Why are tax payers paying for drug tests when it doesn't matter if celebs are positive or not?
Why even put them on probation for that matter? the courts treat them like they are above the law so why does it matter.
The only thing about this article that surprised me was his "marijuana prescription" what the hell do he have that he needs a "marijuana prescription. Government really should crack down on people that have those without any serious medical condition.
I guess in Califiornia anyone can get a medical marijuana prescription. For this woman battering low life, to have a permit for weed is a disgrace. He is a total s***bag who belongs in jail. When are the courst going to see this ahole for what he is and lock his ass up. Just another Ghetto punk who thinks he is above the law,,,, again.
WHAT a DOUCHE...in EVERY WAY!!!
At least he dressed nicely for court, hid his tats, and darkened his hair.
it ain't worth it brezzy just let that **** go until ur off u have too much to lose
He also violated when he gave RiRi a hug at the VMA.
Its typical cele justice. Just don;t commit two felonies. (OJ got away with Killing Nicole but not the theft)
So let me get this straight, failing drug tests on probation and nothing happens?
if you knew anything about virginia then you would't say they were paid off. this is a place you never wants to go to jail for anything. ri-ri has not been charged or i miss what her penalities were did anyone hear what it was? at the end of the day get over this crap with chris b. ri-ri, lohan,amanda and heidi SO SICK OF ALL THEM
this is wrong if it were us we'd be in jail he is a thug with money jail time
I would like to know what his medical problem is that he needs weed for.................I call BULLSH%T on that.
Chris Brown - you are an idiot! Now that I see you're on drugs, I understand why your music suxs so bad. Damn!
The judge is a STAR STRUCK BITCH and I BET she's BLACK!
I dont believe for 1 iota of a second that this pothead has a "legitimate" script for weed. DATS SOME FRAGGLE NAGGLE BULL!
The judge made a sound decision. Why disrupt this young mans life for this foolishness. He is a hard working man.
How time did they Lindsey Lohan!!!
