Game of Thrones 2014 Comic Con: Kit Harrington & Leslie Rose on Being Jon Snow & Ygritte

Rumoured to restart the flame they once had, "Game of Thrones" former co-stars Kit Harrington and Rose Leslie was spotted walking closely next to each other through LAX airport in Los Angeles. Best known for their role as Jon Snow and Ygritte in HBO's epic fantasy series, the former couple attended the San Diego 2014 Comic Con on Friday together with showrunners and creator George R.R. Martin to reveal juicy details on GOT's upcoming season.
A dragon statue stands on a red carpet in preparation for the season four premiere of the HBO series "Game of Thrones" in New York in this March 18, 2014, file photo. The HBO fantasy epic "Game of Thrones" has been renewed for two more seasons, the premium cable network said on April 8, 2014, two days after the show's season four premiere drew the network's biggest audience in seven years.
In front of over 6,000 audience, the pair was asked what's going on their head as their characters saw each other again after Jon Show tried to escape and Ygritte shot him with two arrows.
"I think it was an important moment for us. What I wanted to capture is that he is just really happy to see her again," said the Pompeii actor in an interview posted in The Guardian.
"He doesn't care if that arrow is loosed and he dies - he gets to see her one more time. It's quite a beautiful moment for him, there's a silence there."
"It became very profound. Certainly through season four she was on her own mission and she was going to get her own back, and I don't know if she foresaw how much she loved Jon Snow - that was her last breath, sort of. It was a very beautiful moment," Rose added.
Sporting a red Kabbalah string around her left wrist, the actress' character was killed off in GOT season 4 finale and fans are speculating that the duo might have a better luck in love off screen. The pair dated in 2012 but ended their off-screen romance in 2013, now new rumours of reconciliation have sparked as they appear quite friendly when they arrived in L.A.
Both stars are now living in U.K. and both are busy with their individual projects. Kit recently starred in Jimmy Choo's advertisement and shot the film "Seventh Son" where he plays Billy Bradley. He also filmed two Spook movies: "The Greater Good" with Jennifer Ehle and "Testament Of Youth" with Dominic West.
The 27-year-old actress on the other hand has shot "Sticky Notes" with Ray Liotta, Justin Bartha and Gina Rodriguez.

Mica: 'We've got to do more with less to improve our infrastructure'
Tina Grady Barbaccia | January 25, 2011
Transportation and Infrastructure (T&I) Committee Chairman John L. Mica (R-Fla.) released the following statement in response to the Jan. 25 State of the Union address by President Barack Obama:
"After the Administration derailed a major six-year transportation bill in 2009, it is encouraging that they are now on board with getting infrastructure projects and jobs moving again. However, just another proposal to spend more of the taxpayers' money, when we have billions of dollars sitting idle tied up in government red tape, will never get our economic car out of the ditch.
"We've got to do more with less to improve our infrastructure in a fiscally responsible manner."

Carol Kuhnke Sworn In To 22nd Circuit Court
By Dawn Wolfe
Originally printed 2/7/2013 (Issue 2106 - Between The Lines News)
Feb. 1 may have been cold and blustery on the outside, but inside the Michigan League ballroom there was nothing but warmth and welcome as Carol Kuhnke was sworn in as the state's first openly lesbian elected judge.
More than two hundred people joined Kuhnke's family and dignitaries including newly-elected Suprime Court Justice Bridget Mary McCormack, Michigan Court of Appeals Judge Douglas B. Shapiro, and Washtenaw County Bar Association President Patrick J. Conlin, Esq. to congratulate Kuhnke and take part in her investiture.
There was plenty of praise for Kuhnke - and for the entire Washtenaw County Trial Court - during the ceremony.
According to Judge Shapiro, "Carol is going to be a new addition to what is already the best bench in Michigan. She is soft-spoken but fights hard, she's a critical thinker but not a critical person."
McCormack reflected on her long friendship with Kuhnke, dating back to a golf tournament the two attended together - though neither one actually plays. "I don't think I know a more hard-working, compassionate, or even-handed person," said McCormack of Kuhnke during her remarks. She added that Kunnke is joining a bench where, "Every member ... makes people feel heard, respected and informed...I'm so glad my family and neighbors are in such good hands."
In addition to Kuhnke's formal swearing in and the presentation of her robe by her mother Susan and her children Julia and John, the highlight of the ceremony was the remarks made by Ralph G. Williams, PhD, Professor Emeritus of English Language and Literature at the University of Michigan/Ann Arbor.
Williams recited passages from Henry VI and The Merchant of Venice to illustrate two threats to the law - the threat of those in power trying to twist the law to their own ends, and the danger of a system where people without wealth or power have no access to the law and thus the law becomes a tool of oppression.
In closing, Williams turned to Kuhnke to offer his advice. "The law is general by necessity, but lives are individual," he said. "Where a balance is to be struck, it is best struck on the side of compassion."
Kuhnke's own remarks took a similar tack. After thanking her family and supporters, Kuhnke summed up her own view about the importance of fairness in the court. "What it's really about is what we do for, or to, the people before us," she said.
During a private email interview before and after the ceremony, Kuhnke responded to questions from BTL about the meaning of her election as an openly-lesbian judge - and how sexual minorities can expect to fare in her courtroom.
"I'm very pleased to be able to show young people that their LGBT friends exist at all levels of society and government, and that they need not worry that they can not achieve whatever they wish," she said in a Jan. 31 email.
In a separate email on Feb. 2, she added, "I will do all I can in my judicial capacity to make sure that everyone is treated equally under the law. People entering my courtroom will know that they will be treated with respect and dignity, regardless of who they love."
The ceremony closed with the song "Beautiful Dreamer," sung by Roger Chard, Esq.

To mark IDC Herzliya's 20th anniversary, we spent a day following Prof. Uriel Reichman, IDC's founder and president, and Jonathan Davis, VP for External Relations, around its delightful campus.
Everyone knows the story. Moshiach finally arrives and goes from shul to shul telling the Jews it's time to go home to Eretz Yisrael. But wherever Moshiach goes he is rejected because of his dress, his yarmulke, his hat or his accent. Eventually, in frustration, he simply leaves.
Disunity has long been a problem for the Jewish nation. Rarely have we spoken as one, even during periods of great problems and challenges.
This past year, though, has been witness to an incredible phenomenon. Jews of all stripes joined together to pray, write letters, sign petitions and call the White House in support of clemency for Jonathan Pollard. Knowing that the National Council of Young Israel was at the forefront of efforts to obtain Pollard's release, people would ask me, wherever I went, for updates and told me what they were doing to help.
Chassidim, misnagdim, yeshivish, Modern Orthodox, regular Orthodox, ultra-Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, unaffiliated – every type of Jew joined together.
There have been many heroes in this effort. First and foremost is Pollard himself. Yes, he committed a crime for which he has admitted guilt and expressed remorse. But he has served his time and has been punished sufficiently. And to have endured 24 years – many of them in solitary confinement – in federal prisons while remaining optimistic and forward looking is nothing less than heroic. He is a man of strong faith who to the best of his ability is shomer Shabbos and maintains a kosher diet.
Of course his wife, Esther, devotes her entire being on behalf of her husband. Rabbi Pesach Lerner, executive vice president of the National Council of Young Israel, has dedicated thousands, if not tens of thousands, of hours to this cause, on a professional as well as a personal level. Pollard's attorneys, Elliot Lauer and Jacques Semmelman, gave, pro bono, their all on his behalf. To them also, the cause has become personal.
Current and past chief rabbis of Israel; Rabbi Yosef Sholom Elayashuv and Rabbi Aharon Leib Shteinman; chassidic rebbes; members of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah of America; and hundreds, if not thousands, of rabbinic and lay leaders – all gave Pollard their unqualified support. The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations supported his release, as did almost every Jewish organization, from right to left.
Several individuals deserve special recognition, among them Natan Sharansky, one of our great Jewish heroes, who personally lobbied President Bush and others for Pollard's release. Congressman Anthony Weiner of New York showed courage and integrity as he turned over every stone on behalf of Pollard. (When Pollard was finally given a hearing in Federal Court a few years back, it was astounding to hear attorneys describe how whenever they sought a document from the government and were refused on grounds of national security, Weiner managed to obtain it for them.)
There are others who have spoken out as Americans against what they believe to be a travesty of justice. The Hon. Stephen Williams, the Federal appellate judge who dissented in the original appellate case involving Pollard's sentence, called the District Court's rejection of Pollard's plea a "flagrant violation of the [plea] agreement's spirit."
A former Federal district court judge, the Hon. George N. Leighton, submitted a Declaration in support of Pollard to the appellate court in which he described the failures of the justice and judicial system in the case and called for Pollard to receive an evidentiary hearing.
It took great courage for former CIA director James Woolsey to openly support Pollard's release on humanitarian grounds and state clearly that Pollard did not pose a present national security risk to the United States.
There are those who claim Pollard received a just sentence because he was a spy. This is just plain false. In a plea bargain supported by the Justice Department, Pollard pleaded guilty to one count of "passing classified information to an ally, without intent to harm the United States."
Pollard is not the only person to have passed classified information to an ally. Others have done so for South Africa, Great Britain, the Philippines and South Korea. The longest sentence received was 14 years meted out to Steven Lalas, who disclosed the names of CIA agents, placing them in jeopardy. The U.S. honored Lalas's plea agreement despite the fact that he violated the agreement several times.

In any event, the Constitution gives Congress what is popularly described as the "power of the purse" – that is, the power to raise revenues through taxation and to decide how the money should be sent.
It is difficult to write about such a holy person, for I fear I will not accurately portray his greatness…
There was much to learn from Judge Kramer and the examples he set remains a source of inspiration and a resource from which to learn. He was and remains a great role model.
if her son remained non-responsive she would place honey on his lips on Rosh Hashanah so that he might realize it was the chag.
At a minimum, every child in our yeshivas needs to be taught how important it is, to the Jewish people and Israel, to utilize their right to vote and to cast an informed vote in every local, state and national election.
Purim is the "topsy-turvy" day of the Jewish calendar – the day of v'nahafoch hu. Boys and girls wear costumes, and we expect children to make noise in shul. It is a festive and happy day. But Purim may also be the day a Jewish boy or girl takes his or her first drink and the first step toward alcohol abuse.
On the 25th day of Kislev we will celebrate Chanukah. On the 4th day of Kislev Jonathan Pollard celebrated the start of his 25th year in prison.
The Orthodox Jewish wedding season commences each year after Lag B'Omer and again after Tisha B'Av. In the weeks prior to those dates we watch the mail for the wedding invitations we receive – and notice the ones we do not. Sometimes we receive invitations to weddings and cannot figure out why we were invited; other times we wonder why a friend or acquaintance has not invited us to a simcha.
Everyone knows the story. Moshiach finally arrives and goes from shul to shul telling the Jews it's time to go home to Eretz Yisrael. But wherever Moshiach goes he is rejected because of his dress, his yarmulke, his hat or his accent. Eventually, in frustration, he simply leaves.
Assemblyman Dov Hikind deserves credit for his attempt to deal with the issue of abuse in the Orthodox community – a community where people still refer to cancer as "yener machlah" (that disease); where mental illnesses (even those that are not genetic, such as postpartum depression) are rarely spoken of publicly; and where some parents are still afraid to have their sons and daughters tested and registered with Dor Yeshorim even though doing so might prevent a marriage resulting in children with genetic diseases.
On the day French President Nicolas Sarkozy told members of the Israeli Knesset that Jerusalem had to be divided, an Orthodox Jewish teenager was in intensive care in a Paris hospital after he was beaten by an anti-Semitic mob. I found it ironic that a man who is unable to protect the Jews of his own country has the gall to tell Israel's leaders how best to conduct their internal and external foreign policy.

Kariya retires, expresses worry for hockey's future
In announcing his retirement, former Anaheim star Paul Kariya has become the latest casualty of the NHL's Concussion Era.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Paul Kariya never saw Scott Stevens coming, but he did foretell his own demise.
"There's too much of a lack of respect players have for one another — and it's got to stop," said Kariya. "If the league wants to stop that kind of conduct, it will have to punish players. ... Ten-game suspensions ... and more, have to be brought back to help wake up players, to teach them about having respect for one another."
Kariya could have made that statement when he retired Wednesday because of concussion problems after 15 years in hockey — and he did make some like it — but that quote is actually from a Sporting News article in the summer of '98.
Kariya had missed the final 28 games of the previous NHL season and the 1998 Nagano Olympics in his parents' birth country after a vicious cross check to the jaw by Chicago's Gary Suter left him with his fourth reported concussion. Suter got a four-game suspension.
The then-Anaheim Mighty Ducks star knew that more of the same was coming if the NHL didn't rein in the players, or more importantly, if the players didn't rein themselves in.
"If you want to know the truth," Kariya said then. "There probably isn't a player in the league who hasn't had a concussion."
Nothing's changed in those 13 years, except the increasing rate of reported brain injuries. This is the NHL's Concussion Era and it remains to be seen how many players will be robbed of their potential brilliance — or even worse, as Kariya fears.
"The thing that I worry about is that you'll get a guy who is playing with a concussion, and he gets hit, and he dies at centre ice," Kariya told the Globe and Mail in an interview Wednesday. "Can you imagine what would happen to the league if a guy dies at centre ice?"
Well, one died inside the blue line. His name was Bill Masterton and his death in a game in January of 1968 while playing for Minnesota remains the NHL's only fatality. A recent Star investigation showed Masterton was already likely suffering from a concussion when the fatal blow came.
Kariya knows all too well concussions still aren't treated with the proper severity in the NHL, that there is too much pressure on players to come back before their brains are healed. He faced it throughout his career and it's a big part of why he was never able to capitalize on his full potential.
That he would come out with such a bold statement is significant. Kariya is the last guy to seek the public eye. This is a well-spoken but soft-spoken athlete, not one given to hyperbole at all.
Will the NHL pay heed to what he's saying? They didn't when he was a marquee player. He'll be even easier to ignore now.
But he was a special player, overcoming what he lacked in stature with immense speed and skill. This was a guy who lived to play in the Olympics, winning silver with the Canadian team at the 1994 Lillehammer Games (coming out on the losing end of a shootout on Peter Forsberg's amazing goal for Sweden) and was part of the gold medal squad at the 2002 Salt Lake Games.
The 36-year-old from North Vancouver came up just short of 1,000 NHL games (989) in a career that began with the Anaheim Mighty Ducks plucking him with the fourth overall pick out of the University of Maine. He had one 50-goal season and two with more than 40, while scoring over 100 points twice for Anaheim.
He amassed a total of 402 goals and 587 assists overall in his career while also playing for Colorado, Nashville and finishing with St. Louis, where he had 18 goals and 25 assists in 75 games in the 2009-10 season.
He badly wanted to come back for more, but his brain — or rather the physicians advising him — wouldn't let him. Even after sitting out a year of hockey, he hadn't healed enough after his last concussion.
One of the enduring moments of Kariya for hockey fans will be Game 6 of the 2003 Stanley Cup final against New Jersey, when Stevens laid him out with a crushing blindside hit. Kariya lay on his back, his breath fogging his visor. He left the ice but came back to score an important goal to force a Game 7, which they lost.
It's been said he doesn't remember scoring that goal. A heroic moment, but who knows how much it contributed to his problems.
Columnist Wayne Scanlan of the Ottawa Citizen wrote of that game: "The Hit also happens to be a pretty convenient metaphor for the game of hockey itself. Kariya gets back up. Just as hockey always gets back up."
Kariya couldn't get back up this time. The jury's out on hockey.

Do you send christmas cards?

I am sitting here thinking if I want to send any cards, I better get started writing them.
We have moved house, so if I want to get any, I better send some first with our new address on the back.
Reasons for not sending cards so far are;
- I really can't be bothered
- I don't have any cool places to display cards at our new house
- seems an awful waste of paper/resources
- cost of postage
hmmm, what else?
Do you send cards? Why? Why not?

Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:25 PM
Nope. Don't see the point (in my circumstances) and can't be bothered.
Everyone I am in touch with are either people I see in person, or people I am in touch with online.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:27 PM
yep especially since having th ekids we take a family pic same place in the yard every year and my friends love to recieve th enew pic and see how much we have changed since the previous year one firend my oldest godmother actually has a frame she displays our pic in all year round
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:28 PM
I don't send cards, I never seem to get around to sending them. we don't receive many either, probably because we don't send them. we always get them from dhs elderly relatives.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:28 PM
No and haven't for years, i mean probably 20 years.
My reason is this, i was the very good daughter who used to love the idea of writing cards & wrote them for the family- that made my mum happy, I would dutifully write the cards to the list of family friends etc...then lo & behold we met up with a family friend in a local club, she couldn't pull herself away from the pokies to even say hello. So i really started to wonder what was the point??? Why am i sending you a card when you can't even be bothered to say hello to me.
From then on i''ve hardly ever sent a card, if you're a good friend of mine I will wish you in person
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:30 PM
2011 was the first time that I primarily sent e-cards. It was so hard for me to make that decision because I LOVE sending and receiving Christmas cards. And e-cards are so impersonal, in comparison.
Anyway, this year we'll be doing the same - ecards to everyone with email, and then Christmas cards to those without internet (mostly older family members and friends).
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:31 PM
We do.
Its great when you have relatives who live overseas/interstate. I also like to send a card to extended family...we catch up a few times a year or see each other at functions and its a nice to wish them a wonderful Christmas time.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:32 PM
I don't as I think they are a waste of resources.
That being said I do think it's lovely when I receive them due to the thought. I don't ring up the person and abuse them for wasting paper and accuse them of being a Liberal voter
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:34 PM
Yep - we get some made with a photo of the kids on the front. We only do about 20 though
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:34 PM
most of DH's family do vote liberal, though
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:35 PM
Only to England. I email or call other people. My mother sends cards to everyone. Even if you are seeing her Christmas Day she gives you a Christmas card!
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:35 PM
Yes, but only for the kids. We gave very few cards to elderly and respected people prior to having kids. Now we make our own of the kids dressed in silly outfits and give them to the whole family
I imagine it will stop when the kids start refusing to dress in silly outfits...
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:37 PM
We do to elderly relatives overseas. Everyone else, nope.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:38 PM
Yes I do, but not insulted if we don't get one in return. Some people are just too busy and that's OK.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:52 PM
Normally I don't but when on our trip to new york we got some cards with santa and the statue of liberty trying to read a subway map on the front.
I can't wait to send them, I am writing them this weekend.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 07:55 PM
Posted 03 December 2012 - 08:03 PM
I send 3 aunts and uncles and 2 friends overseas. That's it. Oh and I give Christmas cards in the party bags that I give along with DS's birthday party, as it is 1 week before Christmas.
Posted 03 December 2012 - 08:08 PM
Yep I sure do!
40 went out in the post today.
7 to overseas family, and the rest to family and friends here in Australia.
I love getting cards in the mail and I hope that others like to recieve them from us too!
Posted 03 December 2012 - 08:09 PM
Yes I do. I like sending them and not worried if I don't get them in return. It is lovely to receive something in the letterbox other than bills or bank statements!
Posted 03 December 2012 - 08:17 PM
I only send them if I receive one from that person first. Otherwise I don't bother.
Posted 04 December 2012 - 10:09 AM
We send around 10 including overseas as I get my eldest to help write them & she loves it, something different from typing & encourages writing & social skills.

Humana Tests Remote Patient Monitoring to Reduce Readmissions
The remote monitoring program, dubbed eNeighbor, sets up 11 sensors throughout a participant's home. There are four types of sensors:
- Motion sensors placed on walls that monitor the movement pattern within the home
- Contact sensors placed on the refrigerator or kitchen cabinets
- Bed sensors placed between the mattress and box springs
- Toilet sensors that monitor flushes
Together the sensors and Healthsense software collect information to establish the daily routine of each participant. No biometric measurements such as blood pressure are included. The daily routine is the benchmark for establishing when medical assistance is needed without a person needing to check in, punch a button, or pull a cord.
The goal is to detect changes in daily activities. If a participant typically opens the refrigerator door at 7 am but doesn't one morning, then a telephone call will be made to the home. If no one answers, then the care manager and the member's emergency contact will be alerted.
More subtle changes can also be identified. "We can learn about things like restless sleep, which could mean a member is in pain, or increased toileting, which could indicate a urinary tract infection. Information like that can help us to get our members connected with their physician faster and helps us update their care plans," says Streible.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

Great Ideas!!! Wonder how patients would take it? Hopefully not feeling intimidated for being monitored always and everywhere. Hope the patients comply

It was the defining moment of the January 1997 floods.
The Julia Morgan Ballroom in San Francisco was the setting for a dinner that brought for-profit California utility company fat cats and the upper crust of bureaucrats together.
Charlie Rule over 20 years ago pushed to get his bosses on the Manteca City Council to require new home builders to install fire sprinklers in all new single family residential construction.
The holidays have come and gone and now it's time for a return to normalcy.
Taco trucks vs. brick-and-mortar eating establishments.
I now live in a two bedroom, no bathroom home - at least until Saturday.
On the World War II monument in Washington, D.C., is a photograph of Albert E. "Abe" Ftacek of Manteca. Beneath the title, "Activity During WWII," is an inscription that reads: "8th Air Force, 389th bomb group, 565th Bomb Squad, B-24 Radio Operator. Flew 33 bombing missions over Germany and France with the Lloyd L. Allen Crew and 2 with another crew. Awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, Air Medal with 4 Oak Leaf Clusters, Good Conduct Medal and European Theater of Operations Medal with four Combat Stars."
Go ahead, slam Police Chief Nick Obligacion for his efforts to address the homeless/panhandling/public drug use issues in Manteca.

UC Santa Barbara, Alan Williams beat California
Dec 7, 2013, 12:17 AM EST
Credit Mike Montgomery and Cal for heading to southern California to play at UC Santa Barbara. It's not too often that a program from a BCS conference travels to play at the gym of a mid-major team, but the Golden Bears did that tonight.
Montgomery probably regrets it as Cal lost to UCSB, 72-65.
While Cal may learn from this game and benefit from it in the long run, in the short term it's a loss — their third loss in the past four games. Tonight wasn't about Cal, though. It was about the Gauchos — they announced themselves to the nation as a legit team that should not be overlooked.
The best player on the floor was UC Santa Barbara junior forward Alan Williams. If you hadn't heard of Williams' name before, then remember it now. Williams tore up the Cal defense for 24 points on 9-15 shooting from the field, to go along with 11 rebounds. For the season, Williams is now averaging 26.8 points and 11 rebounds per game — not too shabby.
Despite owning just a 4-3 record after their win over California, UC Santa Barbara is better than their record may indicate. They suffered back to back close losses to Utah State and Colorado, but were without the services of Williams during these games as he was sidelined with back spasms.
After going 11-20 just a season ago, the Gauchos have turned things around in a big way as they are the team to beat in the Big West, although UC Irvine probably has something to say about that. Owning solid wins over UNLV and Cal, plus competitive losses against Utah State, Colorado, and UCLA, it's safe to say UC Santa Barbara is a team to pay close attention to over the course of the season.
The Gauchos don't play again until December 15th when they travel farther south to meet San Diego, which will be another good test. UCSB has really challenged themselves in the non-conference portion of their schedule, and that will pay dividends when they enter Big West play in January.

The Marinestar Maneuvering System (Marinestar MS) designed by Fugro in Norway has been approved by the BSH marine test house in Germany as both a Speed and Distance Measuring Equipment (SDME) and Transmitting Heading Device (THD). This means that Marinestar MS can be installed as an alternative to a doppler speed log in order to meet the requirements of SOLAS for ships over 50,000 gross tons to have the ability to measure speed over the ground in both the forward and athwartships direction. The system can equally act as an alternative to one of the gyro compasses. In fact Marinestar is more accurate than most gyro compasses and is therefore not only a low maintenance gyro alternative but a more accurate source of heading information.
The system is based upon high performance dual system (GPS & GLONASS) differential position receivers and the Fugro navigation satellite augmentation broadcast. In addition to its approved navigation functions Marinestar MS acts as a berthing system providing quay distance and approach speed fore and aft.
Strengthening the arguments for installing the system is the Marinestar ability to measure and display vessel trim dynamically whilst at sea. When used in conjunction with optimum trim calculations this leads to significant savings in bunker fuel costs.
Managing Director Arne Norum comments: "it has taken us four years since original concept to reach system type approval. Considering that Marinestar MS is an innovative alternative to a range of conventional navigation equipment this is a result that I am very pleased with. We have been fortunate to work with an extremely knowledgeable test house BSH who have conducted rigorous tests both ashore in the laboratory and at sea. Although the system has been in use at sea for two years as a berthing system users can now benefit from installation to meet SOLAS requirements. When these uses are coupled with the trim based fuel efficiencies we expect to see a significant increase in demand."

McAlpine to face grilling on 'blacklist'
Jan 20, 2013 (Financial Mail on Sunday - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- CONSTRUCTION firm Sir Robert McAlpine will this week answer accusations about its alleged role in financing an illegal blacklist used to prevent workers whom big building firms did not like from getting work on sites.
Story continues below ↓
Cullum McAlpine, a member of the company's founding family and a director, will appear before MPs on the Scottish Affairs Committee on Tuesday to answer questions about the company's involvement with The Consulting Association, which operated the blacklist.
The list was used by construction firms to avoid employing people they regarded as troublemakers.
An investigation by the Information Commissioner's Office found it contained references to workers' trade union membership and those who had highlighted health and safety issues.
One entry read, "ex-shop steward, definite problems, no go," while another said that someone was a "poor time-keeper, will cause trouble, strong trade union." The ICO fined Ian Kerr, former chief officer of The Consulting Association, pounds sterling 5,000 in 2009 for operating the list.
Kerr told MPs on the committee in November last year that Sir Robert McAlpine had paid the pounds sterling 5,000 fine, as well as providing finance to wind up the association.
He said Cullum McAlpine was chairman of The Consulting Association when it was set up.
Kerr died of natural causes just two weeks after giving evidence.
A pounds sterling 17 million High Court claim by victims of the blacklist has also alleged that Sir Robert McAlpine played a central role in the organisation of the blacklist.
It was used by more than 40 big construction companies, including Balfour Beatty and Skanska.
Sir Robert McAlpine said in a statement last night: euro ~Sir Robert McAlpine Ltd has never operated a "blacklist." We are, and have always been, wholly committed to maintaining good relationships with our workforce and to responsible trade unionism." ___ (c)2013 Daily Mail (London, ) Visit the Daily Mail (London, ) at www.dailymail.co.uk/home/index.html Distributed by MCT Information Services
