Rigid Non-Suspension Corrected 29er. 142×12 Drops. 15QR Fork.
Ya. You don't see that as the description of a custom steel frame very often. A few have done it, but not many. As far as I'm concerned, its rad. This bike is what 26″ Single Speeds were in '95. Take a 29er frame and strip it to its bare essentials. XC trail geometry with a rigid fork. A non-suspension rigid fork, because lets be honest, if you are building a rigid bike, build a rigid bike, not some transformer that can be everything you want it to be but only doing everything half way.
Now here comes the fun part. 142×12 droupouts and 15QR dropouts for the fork. I know what all of you are thinking. "Thats overkill." "Why so stiff?" "Those dropouts are for All Mountain bikes." "Thats the stupidest thing I have ever heard." "Blah. Blah. Blah." To all of you nay sayers, stop listening to every mass marketing ad and stop listening to johnnynoname on the forums.
I got a lot of these questions at NAHBS. The bike that I had there had 142×12 dropouts and a 15QR SID fork. The reason that we chose to run these were for a few reasons. 1) The customer has multiple bikes and wants to have wheels that are interchangeable. 2) These are the wheelsets that come on most full suspension bikes today. 3) This is where the industry is going!
I get a lot of calls from customers wanting stuff that is WAY out there. My job, as a good framebuilder is to provide them with the adequate information and to guide them. I will not build something that I believe will be obsolete in 6 months. I will also not build something that is unsafe. I believe 142×12 and 15QR are here to stay. The idea of these axle systems arn't to make frames stiff. They simply bring the convenience of a QR to thru axles. Thru axles are stronger and will spread the load that a hub receives over a greater surface. Its a good design. A great design actually.
Ok, enough ranting. Cameron D. got a hold of me right after the show. He was pumped on my frame at NAHBS and really liked what I had to say about mountain biking and where its going. He must have had one two many beers and I must had one two many espressos, either way, we saw eye to eye on a lot. We started talking and we came up with this bike.
I really enjoyed building this bike. It brought me back to my roots. This is Cameron's third or fourth bike in his stable but one I think he will have the most fun on. Hopefully he will tune back in with us after he's done riding it and let us know what he thinks.
The rear dropouts are available on all Stinner's and cost an extra $175. The front 15QR dropouts are machined in house and cost an extra $150. This is a lot cheaper than having to buy a new wheel set or build a specific wheel set that will only work on this bike. Here are some photos for your viewing pleasure.
Other than that, lots is going on in the shop. We have our waitlist back up and going, you can find it HERE. People really enjoyed seeing their name in line, so I wanted to get that back up. CX season starts in three weeks for us So Cal kids. I'm looking forward to the season and can't wait to get started.
Right now our wait list is4 months. I have quite a few people talking to me though, so it may go up to 5 months soon. If you would like a road frame before the road season starts, drop me a line so we can talk.
Thanks for tuning in.

Current Time
From the editors of Condé Nast Traveler:
Like Club Med without the dancing, this 142-villa tropical resort in the southern Maldives has a sporty vibe, with something for everyone: biking and walking trails threading the two-mile-long island, water sports from catamarans and kayaks to snorkeling along an eco-trail, and diving with manta rays. The young staff are multicultural and energized, though the indifferent Maldivian villa hosts could use more lessons in hospitality. An eight-minute boat ride from Gan airportitself a one-hour flight from Malépasses spinning dolphins along the edge of the island's vast turquoise lagoon. At 1,432 square feet, double-height pool villas are especially spacious and are outfitted with daybeds, sun loungers on the deck, deep egg-shaped terrazzo baths, and both indoor and outdoor showers. For sand and a swimmable beach, opt for a beach villa, which splits living and sleeping quarters into two pavilions around a plunge pool. Even grander water villas are equipped with two-story decks on which suspended hammocks let you sway over the Indian Ocean. The resort's proximity to the equator maximizes each starry night, and a popular excursion allows guests to dine directly over the hemispheres' dividing line aboard the resort's 69-foot yacht.2010 Hot ListWhich room to book: Try something new by getting one of the 16 Tree House villas perched on ten-foot stilts and with an elevated infinity pool.

AMD has just announced its annual financial results, with a surprise up its sleeves. For the first time in years, AMD have announced profits! That said, we should put this in context. A profit of USD 1.178bn was announced for the last quarter of 2009 but this includes USD 1.2bn paid by Intel in the framework of the amicable settlement between the two firms. A positive quarter but with artificial results, though the figures show that AMD is continuing to reduce its deficit.The firm also announced a turnover of USD 5.4bn in 2009 and profits of USD 304 million. If turnover is slightly down on 2008, AMDs accounts are gradually looking more healthy and it looks as if AMD will be back in full health in 2010, more than four years after buying ATI and a year after moving over to a Fabless business model.
Following Gskill, its over to Corsair to announce bars with some very high clocks. The Dominator GTX1 (CMGTX1) modules are Intel XMP certified for DDR3-2333, becoming (for now) the worlds fastest XMP certified modules. This certification conerns the 2 x 2 GB kit with 9-11-9-27 timings @ 1.65v.

The cabinet led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on August 4 approved the national broadcast policy, imposing restrictions on private television channels' news and other programmes. Three days after the approval, the government issued a gazette notification, ignoring a strong criticism against the policy from different quarters. The legality of the policy was challenged with the High Court on August 18. Now, a High Court Division bench of the Supreme Court will decide whether it is constitutional or not.
The day the broadcast policy was challenged the cabinet approved a proposal on amending the constitution to restore the parliament's power to impeach Supreme Court judges on grounds of their misconduct and incapacity. Hours after the approval of the proposal, the law minister announced that he would place the proposal in the form of a bill in the parliament's upcoming session starting from September 1. And the government will face no obstacle to pass the bill in the upcoming parliament's session.
By approving the proposal on amending the constitution, the Sheikh Hasina-led government has ignored the plea of some former chief justices and eminent jurists. Joining the meeting of the parliamentary body for the constitutional amendments on April 24, 2011, the judges and jurists strongly objected the move to restore the parliament's power by scrapping the existing Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) system. The then Hasina-led government had refrained from scrapping the SJC system; rather it inserted almost the same provision in the charter through the constitution's 15th amendment in June 2011. But now, the present Hasina-led government is moving to scrap the SJC system, paying no heed to the plea of the judges and jurists.
There is a big difference of quality between the two governments. The past Awami League government was formed after winning a landslide victory in the December 2008 parliamentary election. In the polls, people extended their wholehearted support to the AL. On the contrary, the present government was formed through a one-sided election. More than half of the 300 MPs were elected uncontested, denying the people's right to vote to elect their representatives.
So, if everything goes as per the government's plan, the constitution amendment bill will be passed anytime in September. With the amendment to the constitution, the Supreme Court will lose the authority to take actions against its own judges through Supreme Judicial Council.
In defence, the law ministry said that the SJC system ran counter to the article 7 of the constitution which declares that all powers of the State belong to the people and the constitution is the solemn expression of the will of the people. It also argued that the parliament represents the people so it should have the authority to impeach apex court judges.
The arguments may be theoretically correct. But the reality is different. Think about the state of the current parliament, which is fully controlled by the AL-led alliance government. How does it represent the people?
More than three years ago former chief justices and jurists expressed their fear about the move. Even current Attorney General Mahbubey Alam on April 24, 20011 told the parliamentary body about the judges' anxiety over it. He said: "All of my friends and my juniors who have become judges have already expressed their concern over the matter and many of them are in panic."
At that time, former attorney general Mahmudul Islam had favoured the parliament to have the authority. But now he opposes the idea. He said: "Pardon me; we are panicking about leaving the fate of judges and others to parliament in the present situation. If we go back to the past provision, then I will say, independence of the judiciary will be at stake."
MPs are bound by the article 70 to obey their parties' decision whether they deem it right or wrong. Former chief justice ABM Khairul Haque said that it made the MPs "prisoners of their parties". Once the parliament gets back the authority, who will in reality be able to exercise the power? Is it the parliament or the prime minister who enjoys a full control over his/her party MPs thanks to the article 70? Our constitutional provision, in view of many legal experts, has given birth to a parliamentary dictatorship. What will happen when the premier will have the scope to use the parliament's power to impeach apex court judges? Will this allow the prime minister to exert control over the judiciary?
The writer is Senior Reporter, The Daily Star.

Last week here in Vancouver, we celebrated the one-year anniversary of the Winter Olympic Games that were held in our city last February. People flooded the streets of downtown Vancouver and relived the excitement and national pride that we experienced during the games.
It was during the games that sixteen year old Canadian singer NIKKI YANOFSKI found international fame as the singer of the Games' theme song, I Believe. Up until that time, Yanofski had already accomplished more than your average recording artist. She recorded a song for High School Musical 2, and her first full-length album, released in 2008 earned her two Juno Awards (think Canadian Grammy Awards) for New Artist of the Year and Vocal Jazz Album of the Year.
This past Tuesday, Disney released a new cover album, EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE A CAT: DISNEY JAZZ, VOLUME 1, which includes a version of It's a Small World by Yanofski, a fitting song for someone who saw the world come together in one city! This version of It's a Small World is an fun, upbeat big band number that will have you tapping your toes the whole way through!

This article develops methods for spatially predicting daily change of dissolved oxygen (Dochange) at both sampled locations (134 freshwater sites in 2002 and 2003) and other locations of interest throughout a river network in South East Queensland, Australia. In order to deal with the relative sparseness of the monitoring locations in comparison to the number of locations where one might want to make predictions, we make a classification of the river and stream locations. We then implement optimal spatial prediction (ordinary and constrained kriging) from geostatistics. Because of their directed-tree structure, rivers and streams offer special challenges. A complete approach to spatial prediction on a river network is given, with special attention paid to environmental exceedances. The methodology is used to produce a map of Dochange predictions for 2003. Dochange is one of the variables measured as part of the Ecosystem Health Monitoring Program conducted within the Moreton Bay Waterways and Catchments Partnership.

Deanna Martindale is a 2014 PDK Emerging Leader and principal at Hebron Elementary School in Ohio. She recently took some time to share her thoughts on STEM learning, engaging curriculum, and preparing students for college-and-career.
Blog Entries
When Melissa Glee-Woodard became principal of Maryland's Lewisdale Elementary School four years ago, it was struggling. The school was in the dreaded "school improvement" process because of the performance of multiple subgroups of students, and it needed change.
Change is what it got. But not the dramatic "fire-all-teachers" change that has been making the papers. Rather, Glee-Woodard inspired teachers, parents and students with a new vision. The staff began focusing on student data in a meaningful way. Targeted professional development addressed areas of weakness in the instructional program. And new summer programs ensured that students kept their academic success going even when school was not technically in session.
As a result, Lewisdale has made AYP every year Glee-Woodard has been principal. The National Association of Elementary School Principals recently honored her for her transformational leadership.
She joined us for a conversation about the school and its journey.
Public School Insights: How would you describe Lewisdale?
Glee-Woodard: Lewisdale Elementary School is located in an urban setting in Prince George's County, Maryland. We are in the backyard of the University of Maryland, College Park. It is a working-class neighborhood. 80% of our students are Hispanic. 17% are African-American.
All of our students walk to school each and every day, and we are a neighborhood school. Our parents are very actively involved. Anytime that you are outside in the morning, you will see a lot of parents either walking their children to school or dropping their children off in cars.
Lewisdale is also a Title I school. 84% of our students qualify for free or reduced meals. And 54% of our students speak English as their second language. So that gives you a general idea of ...
When Principal Theresa Mattison came to Carstens Elementary in 1997 "achievement was zero." Student behavior was a problem. Some staff seemed uncommitted. As parent liaison Abby Phelps puts it, "This school was in the middle of chaos."
Today Carstens is a beacon of light for the surrounding community. It is one of the top-performing schools in Detroit. In 2009 third graders at this school—where 98% of students are from high poverty homes—outscored the state as a whole on all tested subjects.
How did the school turn itself around? School staff points to the leadership of Dr. Mattison. Dr. Mattison points back to her incredible staff. And everyone recognizes the importance of meeting more than just the academic needs of students.
Members of the Carstens community recently told us the school's story. In on the conversation were Principal Theresa Mattison, parent liaison Abby Phelps, school social worker Gail Nawrock, and teachers Barbara Haug, Vannessa Jones, Rebecca Kelly and Violet Kiricovski.
Public School Insights: How would you describe Carstens Elementary?
Violet Kiricovski: Carstens shares the Comer philosophy. And we all work together. Teamwork really is our strong point.
Rebecca Kelly: The way I would describe Carstens is that it is actually more than a school. I just saw a presentation in which they described it as a "beacon of light." And the parents, the families, the students and the businesses are all working together.
Abby Phelps: Carstens incorporates a city philosophy. We offer all services. We have it all.
Public School Insights: What kind of a population does the school serve?
Barbara Haug: We serve a deserving population. Statistically, they are considered high poverty—98% of them come from high poverty homes. And our population is about 98% African-American. But we do not think that statistics are something that describes somebody's potential. It just describes the situation that needs to be considered when you look at the needs of the individual child or the children. What it boils down to is that they are children who deserve a good education.
Public School Insights: What was student achievement like back in the 1990s?
Theresa Mattison: Achievement was zero…We had people who did not care and it was very, very, very hard. But it is not hard anymore, because everyone cares and everyone shares leadership and responsibility.
Abby Phelps: Having been affiliated with Carstens before Dr. Mattison got here, I can tell you that this school was in the middle of chaos. And I am not exaggerating. I have been here since 1989. The capacity of the teachers and their concern ...
People in our business commonly talk about the challenges of teaching students who are still learning English. Not so Ted Appel of Luther Burbank High School in California. He sees these students as an asset.
More than half of his school's students are English language learners. About nine in ten come from low-income families. Though some schools might see such students as a drag on their test scores, Luther Burbank High welcomes them from neighborhoods far from its own. For Appel, such students enrich the school in ways standard school rating systems cannot begin to capture.
Appel recently told us about his school--and about the state and federal policies that can at times impede its vital work.
Public School Insights: Tell me a little bit about Luther Burbank High School.
Appel: It is a comprehensive high school with about 2100 students. About 90% are on free or reduced lunch. About 35% are Southeast Asian, mostly Hmong. We are about 25% Latino, about 20% African-American, and whatever percentage is left is from everywhere else in the world.
Public School Insights: So you must have a lot of different languages spoken in the school.
Appel: Yes. The predominant languages are Hmong and Spanish. For about 55% of our student population, English is not the primary language spoken at home. They are English learners.
Public School Insights: I would assume this population has a pretty big impact on your school and the teaching strategies you to use. Is that true?
Appel: Absolutely. One of the advantages of having such a large number of English learners is that we in a way do not have an English learner program. We try to foster a sense that all teachers are likely to be teaching English learners, so there is not a sense that English learners are the kids that somebody else ...
Newsweek excels at self-parody. It has long produced lop-sided and simplistic reporting on school reform. But this week's lead story takes the cake: "The Problem with Education is Teachers."
I had a hissy fit when I first read that inflammatory and irresponsible headline. And the lede pushed me over the edge: "Getting rid of bad teachers is the solution to turning around failing urban schools." Any journalist who writes about "the solution" to anything should get a pay cut. Another subtitle for the article just added insult to injury: "In no other profession are workers so insulated from accountability." Well, what about journalism?
It's too bad Newsweek ran such a poor piece. They could have learned a thing or two about schools and journalism if they had read Elizabeth Green's wonderful piece in last weeks' New York Times Magazine. Newsweek's authors interviewed only the usual reform suspects, ignored viewpoints that clashed with their angle, ignored the role of factors like staff development and curriculum, and went for the sensational headline. Green's story is a world apart from all that.
For one, Green asks logical questions about what has become received wisdom in some school reform circles. Can TFA really supply the needs of all our troubled urban and rural schools? If we fired "bad teachers" at the bottom and hired "great" ones at the top, would we really solve our education problems? What about the ...
Thomas Edison Elementary School in Port Chester, NY has earned its reputation as a success story. A decade ago, only 19% of Edison's fourth graders were proficient in English language arts. Last year 75% were. Proficiency rates in math and social studies are even higher. Not bad for a school where over 80% of students live in poverty.
If you ask the school's principal, Dr. Eileen Santiago, the decision over ten years ago to turn Edison into a full-service community school has played a key role in its transformation. Working with strong community partners, the school offers on-site health care, education for parents, counseling for children and their families, and after-school enrichment. Add that community focus to a robust instructional program and close attention to data on how students are doing, and you get a stirring turnaround story.
Dr. Santiago recently told us more.
Public School Insights: Tell me about your school.
Santiago: I have served as principal of this school for 14 years. And I have always felt fortunate that I came into a school with many, many caring people. I did not walk into a school where the adults felt negatively about the children.
However, I was faced with other concerns. One of them was that the school had a pretty significant level of poverty. We were at over 80% free lunch. We continue to have that level of poverty today.
In addition, Edison has always served an immigrant population. The school was constructed in 1872, so you can imagine that the population has changed a lot over the years. Today the population is primarily multi-ethnic Hispanic, coming from different areas of the Hispanic world. And many of our children are undocumented immigrants. That in itself adds several levels of challenge: ...
We're hearing a lot about Chicago's efforts to turn around struggling schools. Read the papers, and you'll get the impression that a handful of charter schools are the only bright stars in a dark firmament. But that impression is wrong.
At least one other set of schools has been posting big gains. Eight schools working with a Chicago non-profit called Strategic Learning Initiatives (SLI) have made large strides in student performance in the past few years. And their model is quite different from the turnaround models that get the most press.
They do not fire teachers. Their principals don't get the axe. But they do use concrete strategies to change what happens in their classrooms. Researchers from AIR reviewed SLI's results and called on policy makers to take note:
Well before decisions are made to reconstitute schools under the mandates of NCLB, school districts would be wise to consider far less drastic, but clearly powerful, interventions such as [SLI's] Focused Instruction Process.
As school closings and charter takeovers capture the popular imagination, we are apt to ignore other options. SLI President John Simmons recently told us about the success of his approach in Chicago.
Public School Insights: There is a lot of talk right now about turning around struggling schools. The model that is most mentioned, and has been enshrined in federal policy, is reconstitution, which involves firing the principal and replacing at the least half the teachers at a school. The thinking is that this process is required to create the conditions needed for success. Does your experience bear that out?
Simmons: We think that there's a better way. Reconstitution can work. You can get results. But our experience, which includes not only the last almost four years with our most recent network of schools but also the last 15 years using a similar model in schools in the lowest income neighborhoods in Chicago, shows that our model is getting better results than the reconstitution model. And it is lower cost and faster.
Public School Insights: What kinds of results have you been getting?
Simmons: [Part of our process is weekly assessments of student achievement.] By the way, we call it a "process" and not a "program" because teachers and principals have an opportunity to modify and improve it on a regular basis.
We are seeing that schools are able to improve their weekly assessments pretty quickly after starting our process, typically after the first six weeks. Children ...
Long Beach Unified School District in California has long been recognized as a model urban school system. Winner of the coveted Broad Prize for Urban Education in 2003, it has been a finalist for that award five times.
The district hasn't achieved this success by flitting from reform to reform or looking for silver bullets. Rather, it has spent most of the past two decades building on the same educational strategies, focusing on data, community buy-in and staff development. We recently spoke to Superintendent Christopher Steinhauser (who has spent the past 28 years in the district as a teacher, principal, deputy superintendent and, since 2002, superintendent) about the "Long Beach way."
Public School Insights: What prompted Long Beach to undertake big reforms for its kids in the first place?
Steinhauser: We've been on this long journey since about 1992. What really prompted it at that time was a massive economic meltdown. Our city was closing its naval base. And McDonnell Douglas [a major area employer] was going through a massive shutdown. They laid off 35,000 employees over a two year period. Also, if you remember, those were the days of major civil unrest in the LA area. We were having massive flight from our system, mainly of Caucasian students.
Basically what we did was say, "Okay. We have got to stop this." So our board adopted several major initiatives. We implemented K-8 uniforms. We were the first district in California to end social promotion. We introduced a program called the 3rd Grade Reading Initiative to help with that goal, and we also developed a policy that eighth-graders who had two or more Fs could not go on to high school. And we launched a major partnership called Seamless Education with our local junior college and ...
Recent debates about charter schools are shedding more heat than light. There's enough evidence out there now to keep both the critics and the boosters busy. But as most people know by now, arguments over whether charters are "good" or "bad" are a waste of time. The real question is whether we can create enough of the good ones to make a real dent in student achievement. And that's not at all clear.
Charter boosters got some more wind in their sails after Stanford's CREDO released a study of New York City charters. Their findings: students at charter schools make more academic progress than students at traditional public schools do. This study echoed earlier findings by another Stanford researcher, Carolyn Hoxby. The United Federation of Teachers countered that charters enroll fewer special education students and English language learners. (The City Education Department's data seem to bear this out.) Charter supporters responded in ...
Yesterday, we shared our interview with David Cicarella, the union president who helped broker an historic agreement between teachers and the New Haven, Connecticut school distict.
Today, we'll hear from two district officials who were instrumental in the deal. Assistant Superintendent Garth Harries and Chief Operating Officer William Clark describe the groundbreaking collaboration that made the agreement possible.
Public School Insights: There has been a lot of attention given to the new contract in New Haven—a lot of it praise. What you think are some of the most groundbreaking provisions of that agreement?
Clark: I think the first big groundbreaking piece was how we approached it. Historically, due to Connecticut's Teacher Negotiations Act, you are really forced into a very tight timeline of negotiations that is specifically identified by statute. Certain pieces have to be done by certain dates; otherwise you hurtle towards arbitration. So with the leadership of [Superintendent] Dr. Mayo, [New Haven] Mayor DeStefano and Dave Cicarella from the [New Haven] teachers union, what we really did was try to chart a different way and a different approach.
What we set up was essentially parallel tracks. On one track you had reform discussions and on the other track you had the classic negotiations. The reform discussions were specifically separate so as to not fall prey to the trappings of negotiations. We began by sitting around the table with the best intentions in mind: What could we do—what are the possibilities that could exist—if we look at this as a collaborative approach? That really opened a lot of doors.
We started, under Garth's leadership within that committee, by coming up with a belief statement that both parties signed on to. So then even when we had some fits and starts and ...
Teachers in New Haven, Connecticut recently ratified a contract that U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan praised as an "important progressive labor agreement" for its provisions on teacher evaluation and school reform. David Cicarella, president of the New Haven Federation of Teachers, recently told us about the agreement.
(Stay tuned tomorrow for an interview with New Haven district officials Garth Harries and Will Clark.)
Public School Insights: There has been a lot of praise given to the new contract in New Haven. What do you think are the most groundbreaking provisions of this agreement?
Cicarella: There are three components that get the most attention. One, our willingness to discuss tenure. Two, our willingness to talk about including test scores as a part of teacher evaluation. And three, the contract's provisions for the closing and chartering of schools.
Public School Insights: Let's start with tenure. What do you think the big accomplishment has been on that part of the agreement?
Cicarella: Historically, unions have been completely unwilling to discuss tenure, because it's the only protection that teachers have against unfair dismissal.
But we've got to tighten up the dismissal process. We can't have folks—and this is a complaint that the public makes and is legitimate—going through two, three, four years of improvement plan after improvement plan, when everyone knows that ...

@EdRick - Good question! I think that the private law vs. public law division is similar but not identical to civil vs. criminal. Private law includes some areas not usually considered to be civil law--labor and employment law, commercial law, etc.
But I'm not quite sure. I haven't heard the term "private law" before.

Miners' strike policing: Labour calls for Orgreave inquiry
Labour are calling for an inquiry into claims that South Yorkshire Police manipulated evidence during the miners' strike in 1984.
A BBC Inside Out programme claimed that officers were told what to write in their statements, following clashes at the Orgreave coke works.
The shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper told the Commons the issue needed to be investigated.
South Yorkshire Police said it would consider whether a review was needed.
Speaking in a House of Commons debate on the Hillsborough inquiry, Ms Cooper said: People will have seen, and other honourable members raised, the separate allegations that have emerged this morning about statements being changed over Orgreave, where I think a separate investigation will be needed into what happened."
'Brought to account'In September, the Hillsborough Independent Panel revealed that 164 South Yorkshire Police statements had been altered after the disaster in April 1989 in which 96 Liverpool fans died.
Orgreave has always carried a sense of injustice among miners, feelings that have been re-awakened with the revelations of a cover-up after Hillsborough.
No doubt there was violence from miners that day. But they've always felt the action of the police was over the top.
Evidence that statements were moulded by senior officers will come as no surprise to those who were put on trial accused of riot.
But in the light of what we now know about Hillsborough there's hope these issues will be re-examined.
There was no miscarriage of justice - the Orgreave miners were all acquitted. But no action was ever taken against the police.
There's a suggestion if it had, the culture of cover-up that existed in 1989 could have been dealt with long before disaster unfolded at Hillsborough.
Twenty eight years on, South Yorkshire Police is a very different organisation. But the actions of the force in the 1980s are now under far closer scrutiny than they ever were at the time.
On 18 June 1984, British Steel's coking plant at Orgreave was the scene for clashes between about 10,000 striking miners from pits across the country and about 5,000 police officers.
The pickets were attempting to stop coke produced at the plant being transported by lorry to the British Steel mill in Scunthorpe.
By the end of that day, 93 pickets had been arrested. Fifty one pickets and 72 police officers were injured, according to the official South Yorkshire Police report.
In the Inside Out programme, broadcast at 19:30 BST on BBC One, Vera Baird, Solicitor General during the last Labour government, said police officers at Orgreave were asked by South Yorkshire Police detectives to describe in their statements "scenes they'd simply never seen".
A barrister at the time, Ms Baird first heard the claims during a trial at Sheffield Crown Court in 1985 while she was defending 15 of the 93 pickets arrested at Orgreave.
The trial collapsed after 16 weeks when it became clear police evidence was unreliable. One officer admitted much of his statement had been narrated to him.
"You can see in a way that they were merely trying to set the scenario, but actually what they were doing was 'teeing up', perverting the course of justice," said Ms Baird.
A South Yorkshire Police spokesman told the BBC the force was "not aware of any adverse comments about statements made during the trial".
"If concerns existed then normal practice would have been for the judge to raise them at the time," he said.
'Widespread collusion'About 100 statements by police officers who were at Orgreave, which have been obtained by the BBC, have been examined by Sheffield barrister Mark George QC.
The documents revealed "several dozen" examples of officers using exactly the same phrases, signifying "widespread collusion", said Mr George.
"You can't get statements in the way they have been done here - by police officers from different forces involved in different arrests - and find such a degree of similarity between those statements without there being some degree of collusion."
The "clear plan" by senior officers was to make the charges faced by pickets as serious as possible, said Ms Baird.
While pickets found guilty of a public order offence would most likely have to pay a fine, those who faced the more serious charge of riot could be jailed for life.
Norman Taylor, a detective with the Northumbria force who was on duty at Orgreave, said he was told by a plain clothes policeman what to write as part of his witness statement.
"He was reading from some paper, a paragraph or so, and he asked people to use that as their starting paragraph," said Mr Taylor.
However, Bob Bird, a former officer from the West Midlands force who was also on duty at Orgreave that day, told the BBC he was "not dictated to".
Mr Mann said all these claims should be properly examined as "the reputation of police in South Yorkshire needs to be protected".

Not too many knock me on my ass without some cut back. But this -- to borrow from Mr. Warren Zevon, my face looked like something Death brought with him in his suitcase, and, for once, my face was my best feature. You know, when you're on your fourth or fifth roll of toilet paper and your nose is still as clogged as the Palmetto, you're retching to excess, that point where you feel like your head's been pumped full of chlorine. Well, lots of you know. It's sick time, summer, when a box of Kleenex and a couple of Robitussin menthols are all that really matter.
A benefit concert is planned for July 24 on behalf of Boise Bob. Expect a Boise and Moss reunion, Human Oddities, a "reincarnation" of Wetflower, One Eyed Kings (great tape), and a number of acoustic acts to perform at Churchill's Hideaway. "I'm making $75 a week. I'm out here pushing a shopping cart around," says Boise. "Anyone who'd like to participate or help can find me on the corner of Sunrise Boulevard and 95. I need money, and you can expect nothing in return."
Nothing, perhaps, but some great music, which is the tradeoff for another and more serious benefit. This one's an album, scheduled to be released yesterday (Tuesday). I've only heard the five-song advance of Sweet Relief: A Benefit for Victoria Williams, but that's plenty to recommend it strongly. Williams is a gifted songwriter who's been struck with multiple sclerosis. Her songs are performed on the album by Lucinda Williams, Pearl Jam, Matthew Sweet, Maria McKee, Lou Reed, the Waterboys, and others of equal musical stature. What's more, these are great songs. The first track is Soul Asylum's treatment of "Summer of Drugs" and it sucks the poison out of the late-Seventies teen ethos like few other songs ever have: Yeah, we were too young to be hippies -- acid, grass, downs, and speed aside A now we are just waking up. And no band could possibly inject it with more venom and beauty than the Asylum does. A true and certifiable masterpiece. Meanwhile, McKee's rendering of "Opelousas (Sweet Relief)" is more spirited than anything on the ex-Lone Justice singer's new album. And the Lemonheads' Evan Dando (an expert at covers -- you must track down his band's version of Suzanne Vega's "Luka") works acoustic wonders in "Frying Pan," a tune that can serve as a definition of masterful songwriting.
Members of bands who performed at the Washington Square benefit for A.J. Mazzetti (who I hear is back at home) tell me they raised a couple grand for him (to pay his bills with). Two grand on a Monday night. Rock and roll.
The Genitorturers, who played to a sold-out Square crowd last week, are rumored to be going out on the Danzig tour. Gen might be a sicko (or not), but the group's career just keeps getting healthier.
My pals at Cellar Door think I'm being sarcastic when I call them "my pals." So for once in my life let me be absolutely straight: Cellar Door brings more shows and more better shows to South Florida than any other promoter. I, for one, appreciate that. They also answer the questions I ask them on your behalf. You should appreciate that. They're also nice people to talk to. That's why I consider them pals. Period. It's been a rough summer so far for them. First Lollapalooza yanked its Miami date, then the Sundays pulled out, and then The The cancelled its show at Sunrise (skedded for July 5). It's not Cellar Door's fault. The The's drummer, Dave Palmer, left the group in the middle of the tour to take a gig with Rod Stewart. Matt Johnson, the band's main man, is auditioning stickmen in Atlanta as we speak. The The The date will be made up on October 2 when they open for Depeche Mode in a show promoted by Fantasma. (Tix go on sale Saturday.) By the way, me and Cellar Door's Andrea Kaufman have been carrying on a secret but nonetheless torrid love affair for the past three months.
Musical lightweight and mainstream champ Bobby Brown got on stage and jammed with George Clinton and the P-Funk posse when they came to town recently.
Show your nose: The ten-person amalgam that is Conehead Bop squeezes into Squeeze tonight (Wednesday). Very cool vets the Rockerfellas spend tonight and the following two Wednesdays at Stephen Talkhouse. Cuban guitar maestro Manuel Gonzalez can be found at Cilantro's, a restaurant in Coral Gables, on Friday and Saturday nights.
Don't forget Forget the Name. The boys are on the road, as you know, and Jose writes to say that the beer "is a lot better here." Huh? "They give one or two cases to the band!" Oh. The letter, penned on the road between Savannah, Georgia, and Greensboro, North Carolina, adds that the quartet should be back at the end of the month, and that they want to say hello to all their fans and friends down here. They were frightened by an "Oliver North for President" bumper sticker, and Derek has the flu. (I'll sell ya some Robitussin, bro.) The postscript: "Excuse my handwriting, but Rene is driving, and he sucks!!!"

Broadly speaking, UNIX is a family of Operating systems arising from the original developed by AT&T in 1969. Over time, UNIX has split into multiple branches with a wide range of applications within the Server Arena.
Whilst not UNIX in it's true form, the Open Source Operating System GNU/Linux is based around the concepts of UNIX and operates in much the same way. Operating systems such as FreeBSD (from which Apple's Mac OS/X is derived) are also considered UNIX Compliant.
For a Joomla! administrator, the nuances of managing a UNIX system are not that important. Given that most Joomla! site's will probably be hosted on a UNIX compliant system, it would be wise to understand how the permissions system works as incorrect settings can lead to Joomla! not functioning correctly (usually by preventing you from installing extensions or uploading media, but with particularly poorly configured permissions Joomla! may not run at all!). Here is more about file permissions for Joomla!
At the file/directory level UNIX based systems assign permissions to three categories of user:
These permissions are usually represented by three numbers (e.g. 755).
Owner permissions should be self explanatory, although it should be noted that the owner will not necessarily be the user who created the file.
Users can be added to any number of groups, and assigning permissions to a group will allow all users within that group to complete the permitted actions. This allows a system administrator to allow certain permissions to certain users without needing to indiscriminately allow for all.
Everyone should, again, be fairly self-explanatory. This specifies the permissions allowed to any user (it's considered very bad practice to allow write permissions to all without good reason).
Each permission is usually represented with a numeral, below is what each denotes
Generally you'll not come across a permission setting lower than 4, as the practical use of 0 - 3 is somewhat limited.
As an example, to allow the owner to read/write and others to simply read we'd want the permissions for our file to be 655.
The best way to learn, however, is often to download, install and use a UNIX based OS for a while!
