Johannesburg — Economic activity in South Africa slowed down in the first quarter of 2014 due to the strike in the platinum mining sector, the SA Reserve Bank (SARB) said on Wednesday.
"Concurrent with indications of slower quarter-to-quarter growth in advanced and emerging-market economies, economic activity in South Africa contracted in the first quarter of 2014," it said in its Quarterly Bulletin released on Wednesday.
"The negative growth in the first quarter of 2014 was mainly brought about by a marked decrease in the real value added by the mining sector, reflecting the impact of a prolonged strike in the platinum mining sector."
The slower growth in advanced and emerging-market economies extended the erratic quarter-to-quarter performance that has characterised the economy since the start of 2012, the SARB said.
Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union members at Impala Platinum, Anglo American Platinum, and Lonmin went on strike on January 23, demanding a basic monthly salary of R12,500.
Platinum producers have proposed, among other things, to increase the salary of the lowest-paid workers by R1000 for two years and R950 in the third year. This excluded other benefits. Negotiations have yet to be concluded.
The SARB said real gross domestic product decreased in the first quarter of 2014.
"Real gross domestic product shrank at an annualised rate of 0.6 percent in the first quarter of 2014 following fairly strong growth in the final quarter of 2013," it said.
"Through forward and backward linkages, other sectors of the economy, notably the manufacturing sector, were also affected by conditions in the mining sector."
Growth in the real value added by the tertiary sector was broadly maintained over the same period.
In the first quarter of 2014, growth in real domestic expenditure picked up, while all components of domestic final demand grew at a slower pace.
The bank said real consumption expenditure by households rose at a slower pace as growth in spending on consumer durable goods decelerated considerably, and real expenditure on non-durable goods, such as food and fuel, recorded a "rare contraction".
The decrease was probably related to the disruption to income arising from industrial action and the high prices of food and fuel, it said.
"While household debt as a percentage of disposable income edged lower in the first quarter of 2014, the higher lending rates which became effective during the quarter concerned were reflected in a marginally higher debt-service cost ratio," the SARB said.
"Growth in real final consumption expenditure by general government moderated somewhat in the first quarter of 2014, as a contraction in real outlays on non-wage goods and services was registered, while real compensation of government employees continued to rise."
The bank said growth in real gross fixed capital formation slowed and fixed capital expenditure, by private businesses and government, registered slower growth.
Public corporations in the electricity, transport and water supply sectors raised their level of capital outlays in the first quarter of 2014.
The seasonally adjusted unemployment rate increased marginally to 25 percent in the first quarter of 2014, the bank said.
"Discouragingly, job creation in the domestic economy slowed notably for the second successive year as enterprise-surveyed employment outside the agricultural sector showed virtually no gains in the fourth quarter of 2013," SARB said.
"Nominal remuneration per worker rose by more than the concurrent rate of inflation in the year to the fourth quarter of 2013 on account of an acceleration in remuneration growth in the public sector."
This allowed for productivity changes, but the SARB said the year-on-year growth in nominal unit labour cost remained below six percent over the same period.
As petrol and food price inflation accelerated, headline consumer price inflation breached the upper limit of the inflation target range in April this year.
The upside risk to the domestic inflation outlook remained high.
"The exchange rate of the rand remained vulnerable to international developments and domestic idiosyncratic factors, including prolonged industrial action and electricity supply constraints."
The value of merchandise imports increased in the first quarter of this year, offsetting a more moderate increase in export proceeds.
The bank said that growth in bank credit extended to the private sector recovered somewhat in the first quarter of 2014.

I think of some of the strangest things when I'm lying in bed trying to fall asleep. :lol:
My mom used to make pudding occasionally, and instead of putting the pudding (hee hee) into plain bowls she's portion them into these fancy glass bowls she had. I remember those bowls and can still feel them in my hand, as they had these "balls" of glass (for lack of a better term) on the bottom of them. It made a basic dessert something special.
Or when I'd ask my dad on a Saturday if we could go to the park and go hiking. Or to the model airplane park to watch the model airplanes fly around. I always asked him expecting him to say no, but he always said yes. That was our father/son time I guess, since I didn't play any sports.
Then there was the time in 1976 for the Bicentennial when a local grocery chain (Hughes??) was giving away all the flags of our country (like the Dont Tread on Me flag, and the Betsy Ross flag etc) and I wanted them, so mom and/or dad would get me them every week, and my dad built this pole we painted red, white and blue with drilled holes in the sides for me to display my flags.
The day my mom pulled me out of school, to go have lunch with her and my "Nana" (family friend I called Nana) at Busch Gardens. Talk about feeling special!!
Simple things. Even though I won't be a parent, I do have some advice for you parents. Make memories for your kids by doing the simple things for them. I really think that it's these memories that are the "specialist". I know for me, they are.

Study: US jails could handle Guantanamo detainees
Wednesday - 11/28/2012, 7:56pm EST
By KIMBERLY DOZIER
AP Intelligence Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - The controversial detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, could be closed and the 166 detainees being held there could be absorbed safely by U.S. prisons, a government report says.
Many of the detainees are accused of plotting terrorist acts against the United States.
"This report demonstrates that if the political will exists, we could finally close Guantanamo without imperiling our national security," said Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., the Senate Intelligence Committee chairwoman who released the Government Accountability Office study Wednesday.
The GAO study shows that U.S. prisons already hold 373 prisoners convicted of terrorism in 98 facilities across the country.
"As far as I know, there hasn't been a single security problem reported in any of these cases," Feinstein said. "This fact outweighs not only the high cost of maintaining Guantanamo _ which costs more than $114 million a year _ but also provides the same degree of security without the criticism of operating a military prison in an isolated location."
The study said there are six Defense Department prisons and 98 Justice Department prisons that could take the detainees, but it does say that existing facilities likely would need to be modified and current inmates may need to be relocated to make room for the new arrivals.
President Barack Obama ordered the closing of the Guantanamo's detention facility when he took office in 2009, but that was blocked by a Republican-led bill that cut off funding to move the detainees to the U.S. The lawmakers cited security concerns, saying the presence of the detainees would encourage terror attacks in the states or cities where they were being held.
Feinstein commissioned the study in 2008 to find out where the detainees could be held, if the White House was able to move ahead with Guantanamo's closure.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OverviewYuan Shao was a nobleman of the Han Dynasty and a prominent figure in the historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He served as the leader of the coalition to eliminate the tyrant Dong Zhuo and rescue Emperor Xian. However, the coalition ultimately fell apart due to internal strife.Following the war against Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao turned his attention to northern China, where he fought against other warlords that were vying for control over the lands. During this time, he turned down the opportunity to welcome the freed Emperor Xian into his territory, allowing the rival warlord Cao Cao to offer him refuge instead. After establishing an effective power base, Yuan Shao turned his attention south and entered war with Cao Cao.After a number of smaller skirmishes, the two forces clashed at Guandu. The Yuan army had the advantage of vastly superior numbers, but in 200, Cao Cao's forces managed to overtake a Yuan supply depot in Wuchao. This proved to be a devastating blow to the Yuan army, which quickly lost morale, suffered defections, and was forced to retreat. Yuan Shao was able to reorganize his forces, but died in 202, before he could declare a successor. His death led to internal strife within the Yuan clan that left them vulnerable to total defeat by Cao Cao's army.In Video GamesYuan Shao has made regular appearances in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Dynasty Warriors series, particularly in scenarios focused on the coalition against Dong Zhuo. In the Dynasty Warriors series, he is characterized as an egocentric noble who lords his high status over others while remaining oblivious to his shortcomings. In all Dynasty Warriors titles he appears in, he uses some form of sword as his primary weapon.

Bill Clinton Pledges to Campaign for Obama
Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, after a private lunch with the former president in New York, said his campaign is putting Bill Clinton to work.
Obama spent two hours with Clinton at the ex-president's office in Harlem, The Los Angeles Times reported. Obama was in the city for a joint afternoon appearance with his Republican rival, John McCain, at the World Trade Center site.
Clinton and Obama said they had a "great conversation" in a joint statement afterward. Clinton predicted that Obama "will win and win handily."
"There you go," Obama told reporters. "You can take it from the president of the United States. He knows a little something about politics."
Clinton promised to do whatever the campaign asks.
"We're putting him to work," Obama said.
The meeting comes at a critical time for the Obama campaign. Polls show that McCain's selection of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has attracted some white women, who formed a critical part of Sen. Hillary Clinton's base during her run for the Democratic nomination.

American AnthropologistPersuasive and engagingly written, Creole Economics should be required reading in anthropology, economics, and Caribbean Studies courses.
— Aisha Khan, New York University
What do the trickster Rabbit, slave descendants, off-the-books economies, and French citizens have to do with each other? Plenty, says Katherine Browne in her anthropological investigation of the informal economy in the Caribbean island of Martinique. She begins with a question: Why, after more than three hundred years as colonial subjects of France, did the residents of Martinique opt in 1946 to integrate fully with France, the very nation that had enslaved their ancestors? The author suggests that the choice to decline sovereignty reflects the same clear-headed opportunism that defines successful, crafty, and illicit entrepreneurs who work off the books in Martinique today.
Browne draws on a decade of ethnographic fieldwork and interview data from all socioeconomic sectors to question the common understanding of informal economies as culture-free, survival strategies of the poor. Anchoring her own insights to longer historical and literary views, the author shows how adaptations of cunning have been reinforced since the days of plantation slavery. These adaptations occur, not in spite of French economic and political control, but rather because of it. Powered by the "essential tensions" of maintaining French and Creole identities, the practice of creole economics provides both assertion of and refuge from the difficulties of being dark-skinned and French.
This powerful ethnographic study shows how local economic meanings and plural identities help explain work off the books. Like creole language and music, creole economics expresses an irreducibly complex blend of historical, contemporary, and cultural influences.

Doody's Review ServiceReviewer: Diane M Tomasic, EdD, RN (Slippery Rock University )
Description: This book provides a foundation in understanding nursing research and its role in evidence-based practice (EBP). An accompanying online resource center is available for student and faculty use.
Purpose: The purpose is to help nursing students understand the relevance of research and evidence-based practice. According to the authors, this book provides need-to-know information and how to use this information in evidence-based practice. The authors meet their objective with this very understandable book.
Audience: The target audience is student nurses learning the skills of critiquing nursing research, the skills required of evidence-based practice. It is also aimed at nurses with little knowledge of evidence-based practice.
Features: A unique feature is the walk-through preface that helps readers understand the layout of the chapters. The chapters are written as if the authors are talking to the readers, who have very little knowledge of research or evidence-based practice, and discuss the topics needed to understand these principles. Chapter 1 explains the rationale and layout of the book and chapter 2 details the basic principles of EBP. The basic steps of the research process are described in chapter 3, while qualitative research is the subject of chapter 4 and quantitative research is the focus of chapter 5. Chapter 6 describes searching and retrieving the literature, while chapter 7 deals with evaluating and appraising the evidence. Chapter 8 discusses implementing EBP and its importance. Chapter 9 is unique in the way it helps students understand how research and EBP can be used in written academic assignments. The final chapter covers dissemination of evidence.
Assessment: This is an excellent book for the target audience. It is not a book for learning the details of research; the authors note that readers should consult a traditional nursing research book for this information.

Publishers Weekly -Media properties are big business, no matter their form. So a movie studio making a blockbuster film about dinosaurs would be well-advised to buy up a publishing house to spew out books based on the movie's saurian antics, or a magazine to print fawning profiles on the actors involved. Whether any of this -- the movie, the book or the magazine -- is any good is not important. Profits are. As companies like Time Warner, The News Corporation. and Gannett cut swaths through their particular industries, money piles high, but quality remains low, if it exists at all.
Mark Crispin Miller delivers a horrifying invective against a publishing industry currently devoted to self-help kitsch and celebrity dreck (his word). The New York Times's Gene Roberts excoriates the newspaper world.
But what this collection of essays lacks is the point of view of the businessman. Yes, the cultural landscape has been dumbed down considerably, thanks to the rise of conglomerates. That thought is scary enough, but the pressure to make money is so intense that few are willing to risk their necks for quality -- not the moviemakers, not the editors and, regretfully, not many of the writers at small-town newspapers. This book is frightening, though the inclusion of points of view from the moguls themselves and the so-called 'little people' they rule at the bottom would have made it even more so.

Why make it download emails from a Exchange server and then reupload it to some out-of-organization server?
According to the article this is not the reasoning that is being given for banning the app. As with any aggregator app that runs on a phone, there are many rather plain reasons why data such as emails and attachments would be temporarily stored on the app provider's servers.
The real issue that is being objected to here is that the app double-encrypts login credentials for various email providers using both a unique-per-client key that they generate and a key that is derived from the specific piece of hardware accessing the data. This encrypted data is then stored in "the cloud". The counterpoint to this methodology is gmail's use of OAuth to avoid storing any credentials - regardless of the sophistication of the encryption scheme - in a public cloud setup.

50 Cent ft. Dr. Dre & Alicia Keys - New Day
Artist: 50 Cent
Featuring: Dr. Dre, Alicia Keys
Producer: Dr. Dre
Album: Street King Immortal
Avg Rating: 4.5 ( 104 votes )
I will admit that while 50 Cent taking on Alicia Keys' uber-uplifting New Day was a bit of a shock to the system, the end result is a quite noteworthy single. On top of a feature verse from Dr. Dre, New Day is said to have also been produced by The Doctor and mixed by fellow Shady boss Eminem (Alicia Keys' original version of New Day was wrongfully credited to hubby Swizz Beatz). Serving as a possible sneak peak (fingers crossed) of what's to come on the icon's long awaited Detox album, Dre's verse on New Day is strikingly solid. On his past releases, Fif has remained relatively hit or miss lyrically, but with New Day he takes on both his verses with the vigor of an emcee that has got something to prove. Lookout for New Day on 50's forthcoming Street King Immortal, his final album at Interscope, due out this fall.

The Vizio S5451W-C2's extra-large sound bar and surround speakers deliver standout surround sound, if you can live with the size.
The Vizio S4221w-C4 is an excellent budget sound bar, with great sound quality, an excellent remote, and built-in Bluetooth, but its design won't work in every setup.
The 54-inch Vizio S5430W-C2 is designed to accompany larger televisions and features Bluetooth with aptX support.
Vizio's new sound bars match up perfectly with 42- and 32-inch TVs, while also offering built-in Bluetooth and some very aggressive prices.
Consider the Sony HT-CT550W if you need a sound bar with a lot of connectivity, but it's otherwise not worth its premium price.
The RIM BlackBerry Torch 9810 should satisfy BlackBerry fans with its responsive touch screen and overall specs, but for $50 more, T-Mobile customers could get the much better Bold 9900 instead.
The Samsung HT-C6500 packs outstanding sound quality, Blu-ray playback, and tons of features into an excellent home theater system, with only some design quirks holding it back.
The Denon AH-C351 In-Ear Headphones are a reasonable option in the sub-$50 price range; they offer solid sound quality and a comfortable fit, but the cable design will irk some users.
The Sony ICF-C1iP radio alarm clock for the iPod isn't the smallest or most stylish in the category, but decent audio quality, great radio reception, and a reasonable price point make it a fine option.

Brussels, Feb 26: Instances of card fraud within the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) increased in 2012 for the first time since 2008, driven mainly by higher internet fraud, a report said.
The report, compiled by the Eurosystem (the European Central Bank and the 18 national central banks of the euro area), was published Tuesday. It looks at fraud using different kinds of cards (debit and credit) and according to the type of usage, reported Xinhua.
The report said that in 2012, some 60 percent of the value of fraud resulted from card-not-present (CNP) payments, i.e. payments via post, telephone or the internet, while roughly one-quarter resulted from point-of-sale (POS) terminals and about one-sixth from automated teller machines (ATMs).
In 2012, 1 euro in every 2,635 euros spent on credit and debit cards issued within SEPA, including the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Norway and Switzerland, was lost to fraud.
That represents 0.038 percent of a total of 3.5 trillion euros in transactions, up from 0.036 percent in 2011. The total value of fraud increased by 14.8 percent in 2012 compared with 2011, reaching 1.33 billion euros.
Compared with 2008, the overall amount of fraud decreased by 9.3 percent, while the value of transactions increased by 17 percent.
"These data show we must remain vigilant against card fraud, although it is also reassuring to see that counterfeit levels are lower inside SEPA than outside, thanks to higher security standards," said Vitor Constancio, vice president of the ECB.

Read about our views on marketplace changes as well as updates on our research and event programmes.
The Internet of Things (IoT) revolution is already underway and machines are 'talking' to each other. Buildings, transport infrastructure, cars, healthcare equipment, industrial resources, mobile devices and even consumer goods are able to communicate, sense, analyse and produce useful information with the potential to completely transform how we live, work, travel and manage our lives. Growth estimates vary but according to Ericsson* there are 100 to 200 million connections today, growing to 1 billion over five years.
However, at the moment the full economic potential of the Internet of Things or the Machine to Machine (M2M) market is thwarted by lack of a common infrastructure for data sharing, poorly understood business models and multiple barriers to application and service development. According to a recent article in the Guardian, "the changes required across all sectors are profound. It is difficult to find an organisation that has the authority, the knowledge, the desire or the financial capacity to take a leadership role in bringing together the partners in order to create smarter solutions."
That's why the Technology Strategy Board has stepped in. The TSB has a £5m managed investment fund to develop a demonstrator or demonstrators to support industrial and economic growth in the future IoT market. The preliminary phase of work seeks to gain broad-based learning from some compelling IoT scenarios (each of the 10 consortium are focused on different scenarios), understanding some of the compelling use cases and business opportunities and envisaging the route to an IoT market place for applications and services. They want to do this in a transparent way ensuring the results and learning are widely disseminated. This preparatory phase will help define the demonstrator activity in a real voyage of discovery.
We're really pleased to be one of the organisations at the heart of this ground breaking investment. Working with BT and the University of Southampton we are analysing what would make the transport and logistics sector increasingly 'smart', both in the way infrastructure is planned and managed and how users access and use real time and historical information to make informed decisions. Our challenge is to understand what would encourage and support an environment where information providers in this sector are incentivised to share multiple streams of information, have a common secure platform on which to store and exchange it, and application and service users have access to it. Over the next few months we'll be talking to stakeholders including transport infrastructure providers, logistics management companies, utilities, Councils, the Police, and the Highways Agency to explore how to create such a sustainable ecosystem.
Last week we shared our project aims with the other nine other project teams. The day centered around understanding the common challenges and opportunities. Sure enough, when ably facilitated by 100% Open, it was not long before common ground was found even where the scenarios were as different as helping retailers provide a personalised in shop experience or helping a haulier deliver bananas from Dover to John o'Groats. I have to admit that I went into the day thinking that I'd be in a room full of Big Data fans and that I'd mostly have the pleasure of discussing the details of road sensor data – but this was not the case. I found myself participating in discussions about Personal Information Assets (PIA) and the challenges associated with releasing their value. Many IoT data generating devices will be owned by individuals. Cars, phones, radios, televisions are all PIAs generating data. The question arose over and over again about who owns that data, or rather, who has the right to benefit from it? This question pervaded the debate.
Over the day there were four key topics:
- Business Models and Value Chains – how to make data available 'upstream' and how to prove connectivity, efficiencies and value 'downstream'.
- Trust, Privacy and Ethical – the need for transparency of data use, clarity around methods for gathering data and ROI.
- Busting data silos – looking for a simple and repeatable ways to push and pull data as well as easy ways of sharing across organisations, from person to company and company to person.
- The user as a consumer and a producer – where the issues of data ownership, benefit models, accuracy and use merged with the design question. The opportunities for individuals are significant but the consumer adoption curve may be the limiting factor rather than legislation, regulation or technology.
The benefits of this TSB investment will be significant. We're delighted to be a key player at the forefront of this innovative and thought leading work.

France faces more protests
By Matthew Bigg
PARIS (Reuters) – France's students and trade unions
prepared a victory parade on Tuesday to mark the demise of a
hated youth jobs law, with politicians and analysts split over
whether the hope of labor market reform was dead too.
Opponents of the First Job Contract (CPE) vowed to keep up
their guard until new measures to replace the "easy hire, easy
fire" law for young workers have been passed.
In a sign that unrest that accompanied some of the protests
might not be over, about 100 students blocked two bus depots in
the southwestern city of Toulouse for four hours on Tuesday.
Anna Melun, local leader of the Unef student union, told
Reuters that Monday was "a first victory" but students also had
other grievances.
Parliament will this evening start to debate the ruling
party's measures to help disadvantaged young people find work a
day after President Jacques Chirac scrapped the CPE, a measure
aimed at reducing a youth unemployment rate of 22 percent.
The marches, due to start early afternoon, should test
sentiment since the government's climbdown, though around 600
young people earlier marched in the southern city of Marseille
demanding the total withdrawal of the equal opportunities law.
"We are calling for the pressure to be kept up until
parliament votes the repeal of the CPE, including by blocking
universities if necessary," said Unef national head Bruno
Unions refrained from calling for fresh strikes and some
universities, including the protest center at Rennes in western
France, voted to reopen classes with Easter holidays and spring
examinations fast approaching.
Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy, who emerged strengthened
after his rival Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin was forced
to withdraw the law, argued that the government's flip-flop did
not mean Paris was unable to pass needed but unpopular changes.
"I don't think the French refuse reforms," he told Europe 1
radio. "The French accept change but always want to be assured
that it is fair. They found these proposals unfair."
But he said there was little room for change in the
twilight of Chirac's 12-year presidency: "You don't reform the
same way at the end of an administration as you do at the
Business daily La Tribune disagreed, saying that no
important reform could be undertaken before a presidential
election in 2007 when Chirac is expected to step down.
Some 3,400 people were arrested over five days of
nationwide protest against the CPE in two months, Sarkozy said.
CGT union leader Bernard Thibault said he wanted to focus
on the CNE job contract which, like the CPE, allows employers
to hire and fire at will during a two-year trial period. The
CNE applies to small firms, while the CPE covered workers under
In sharp contrast to the victory mood among protestors, the
president of Medef, a union of business leaders, said the
withdrawal of the CPE had shaken economic confidence.
Laurence Parisot praised Villepin for having had the
courage to make a link between the rigidity of the labor market
and unemployment and said that unions "were wrong to see this
as a victory. After victories like this we will all become

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
The titular Dr. Lewis is a blasé, coke-snorting Montreal plastic surgeon (David Boutin) who's coerced into a month-long hitch in a floundering rural backwater. This pointedly misnamed flyspeck, Ste. Marie-La Mauderne, requires a full-time physician in order to attract a potentially revitalizing factory, so the town's quirky denizens (are there any other kind?) enact various ploys to get Lewis to stay on. Occasional hilarity ensues. The film's bleak setting and downtrodden villagers are surprisingly scruffy for a routine slickster-beguiled-by-hicks flick, and Allen Smith's radiant cinematography gives the proceedings an unusually wistful quality. But Seducing's running gags are as overplayed as its conclusion is foregone, and even its familiar plotting is overshadowed by a regressive nostalgia that would make the Kettles blanch: Early on, when Dr. Lewis calls Ste. Marie "medieval," the villagers seem incredulous that he didn't intend it as a compliment. Little wonder they're so eager to yoke themselves to factory serfdom.

Threat to Hadrian's Wall toilets after 2,000 years
Last updated at 13:48, Friday, 07 March 2014
Villagers living at the end of Hadrian's Wall footpath are dismayed that a cut in funding will leave walkers with no public toilet at the end of their trek.
Members of the Bowness-on-Solway Community Group fear their village could become a health hazard if visitors are left with no facilities.
Currently a toilet is available during daylight hours at the parish council-run Lindow Hall.
Allerdale Council was paying £1,600 per year to clean and maintain the toilet to make it available to the public. But when that funding stops at the end of this month, the toilet will only be available to people using the hall.
Thousands of people walk along the 84-mile long distance footpath each year and many more visit the village while exploring the Solway Plain.
A petition has now been launched, urging Allerdale to think again.
Community group secretary Gilly Walton said: "This paltry amount helps with the upkeep and cleaning of the toilet for the use of visitors from all over the world, so there will be the danger to public health and the loss of our reputation as a welcoming community.
"Considering the millions of pounds United Utilities has spent on removing sewage from the Solway Firth, Allerdale Council will, by its ill-conceived cuts, reduce Bowness-on-Solway to a health hazard.
"It's sad to think that nearly 2,000 years ago the Romans brought toilets to our village."
Group treasurer Pauline Hinks, who lives at nearby Port Carlisle, was equally critical of the funding cut.
She said: "Visitors could be desperate to spend a penny."
She fears people may be forced to go to the toilet behind walls or on the Solway Plain.
Andrew Seekings, at Allerdale Council, said Lindow Hall was given 12 months' notice of the change but made no complaint. He added: "We are now seeking conversations to find the best way forward."

Does Brandi Glanville try to manipulate any and everything LeAnn Rimes-related to keep their feud — and the attention she receives as a result — alive and kicking?
Yes, according to one insider, who said the The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills spitfire "needs to talk about LeAnn on Twitter to keep herself relevant," pointing to a recent incident in which LeAnn's fans were wearing anti-Brandi shirts — and how Brandi reacted to the situation — to assume the role of the victim.
PHOTOS: Brandi Glanville Is A Hot Mess After Night Out
As we previously reported, two male Rimes fans wore giant pink hats — and t-shirts that read "F*** BRANDI" — in a picture on Twitter Aug. 9, and to LeAnn's concert in Littleton, Colo. Aug. 11. This caught the eye of the country singer, who acknowledged them on Twitter, and shouted them out at the show.
On Twitter, the blowback was fast and furious, as some believed LeAnn was passively encouraging the profane insult toward her husband Eddie Cibrian's ex.
Brandi, in response, wrote that while she and Leann were not feuding, the incident could cause a trickle-down effect in regards to travel arrangements for her sons with Cibrian, Mason and Jake, as she did not want them on LeAnn's tour bus.
I "just don't want MY boys traveling on a I hate ur REAL mom bus," Brandi tweeted.

One source told us was NOT the way things went down, as "LeAnn … never saw the damn shirts," explaining that the How Do I Live singer "glanced at their pink hats [and] said, 'Awesome!'
"People are trying to make a big deal of it when it is not — she cannot dictate what her fans do or wear."
The insider called Brandi "jealous," "bitter" and "just mean," adding that "LeAnn never said she hated Brandi … but that is how Brandi is now spinning it. She plays the professional victim card. It's a desperate bid to keep their feud alive and stay in the spotlight."

Orange County Sheriff Mike Carona has resigned from a prominent federal Homeland Security task force and lost his security clearance after a federal indictment against him was unsealed, Homeland Security officials said Thursday.
However, representatives for Homeland Security and Carona clashed over whether he was forced to resign or volunteered.
"We asked him to submit his resignation," said DHS spokesman Larry Orluskie. "It's not a pre-judgment or saying we find him guilty. But it's the fact that his focus is on his indictment and no longer supporting the department, or the Homeland Security Advisory Council."
Carona spokesman Mike Schroeder responded, "That's just false. He tendered his resignation right away. It wasn't because he was asked to."
Besides losing his spot on the advisory panel, Carona was stripped of his security clearance on Nov. 1 as a matter of policy, Orluskie said.
That means that Carona, who is still leads the nation's fifth-largest Sheriff's department, "doesn't have access to anything that is classified," Orluskie said, "even at the lowest levels."
Chris Norby, chairman of the Orange County Board of Supervisors, wondered Thursday whether Carona's tarnished reputation and dismissal from Homeland Security would rub off on the county.
"Orange County has been a leader in these areas and has had a leadership role. The situation (Carona) is in has wiped that out," Norby said. "How long is the erosion going to continue?"
Carona is the second official to resign from the Homeland Security advisory panel after being indicted. George Scott, a fire chief from Wyoming, stepped down in August after he was charged in federal court with allegedly traveling out of state to have sex with a teenager in his fire cadet program.
The federal indictment against Carona accuses him, his wife and his alleged mistress of engaging in widespread criminal actions including conspiracy, public corruption and witness tampering. Carona is expected to go to trial in the summer of 2008.
Orluskie confirmed that DHS officials began discussions with Carona and his attorneys seeking the resignation before the federal indictment against him was unsealed to the public on Oct. 30. "Most of it was phone to phone," he said. Orluskie described the resignation letter sent by Carona and dated Oct. 30 as "mostly a formality."
Carona's involvement in the DHS panel was a centerpiece of his re-election campaign in 2006 with aides stressing that his high-level access benefitted the department with grants and federal focus on Orange County.
Indeed, Orluskie described Carona as "very active" within the advisory panel, which produces a series of studies and recommendations for DHS and Congress.
"He was relied on as a subject matter expert for the Future of Terrorism task force," Orluskie said.
But the indictment changed all that.

We're going to spend 9 nights at the Marriott Vacation Club that overlooks Golf Disneyland. That gives us 8 full days to take trips into the city of Paris and to visit the parks and environs of Disneyland Paris. Right now, I assume we'll get 3-day Park Hoppers for the Disney parks and 5-day Paris Visite passes for 5 consecutive days of trips to museums, Versailles, the Eiffel Tower, and so on.
Here's the catch... Our arrival is Good Friday (when we'll be exhausted from the red-eye flight across the Atlantic). Saturday is our first full day. Then, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday are public holidays, when many people will be off work. Then the schools are out in France for two weeks. Or so I've read.
I'm worried about crowds at Disneyland Paris and in Paris itself. What would be smarter? 3 Disney days (Saturday through Easter Monday) followed by 5 Paris days? Or 5 Paris days (Saturday through Easter Monday) followed by 3 Disney days? Or possibly putting the 5 Paris days in the middle? (The Paris Visite pass days have to be consecutive.)
Any ideas? Has anyone on this board been there at Easter? (Ian? Anyone else?)

The Bombay High Court on Wednesday refused to stay the order of the Ministry of Environment and Forests asking Lavasa Corporation to stop the construction at its township near Pune.
The court, which was hearing the petition filed by the company challenging the stay of the construction, directed the Ministry to take a final decision on the showcause notice issued to Lavasa by January 10.
The High Court also asked the MoEF or the State-level Environmental Impact Assessment Committee to visit Lavasa before taking the decision.
The court said Lavasa can challenge the final decision of the Ministry subsequently if it is aggrieved by it.

Are Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Patel icons of Election 2014? The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) are citing Gandhi more often than even the Congress. The grand old party is therefore forced to resort to its time worn weapon of terming the BJP's idealogue, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), as "killers of Gandhi" because his assassin, Nathuram Godse, was an RSS member at some point.
Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi lost no time when he accused the BJP and the RSS of being anti-Gandhi and two days later asked the Opposition to read about Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel before building his statue. BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad has said Rahul's allegations against the RSS were a diversionary tactic in an election in which development, price rise, corruption, security and unemployment are "core" issues.
On Tuesday, Rahul took on BJP's prime ministerial candidate and Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi on the latter's turf, comparing him to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler but without naming him,
"There are two kinds of leaders. The first type like Gandhiji belongs to those who go among people, have some ideology and believe in the knowledge of people... Then there is another kind of leader, whose best example is perhaps Hitler. Hitler thought there was no need to go to people. He believed entire knowledge of the world is only in his mind," said Rahul.
Within hours, the BJP retaliated to Rahul's jibe by asking the Gandhi scion how much he knew about Patel, and why Patel and Azad were not conferred the Bharat Ratna by the Nehru-Indira Gandhi regime. The two leaders were given Bharat Ratnas when Narasimha Rao was the Prime Minister, Prasad said at a press conference on Tuesday.
The BJP, which had promptly reacted to Rahul's charges against the RSS by petitioning the Election Commission to de-recognise Congress, has now released excerpts from Gandhi's grandson Rajmohan Gandhi's biography of Patel, who is quoted as telling Nehru that the RSS was not involved in the assassination.
Incidentally, Rajmohan, who will contest the East Delhi seat for AAP, had on Monday likened AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal's zeal to fight against corruption to Indians' struggle to win freedom from British rule under Gandhiji.
Not just Rajmohan and AAP, but Modi too has been incessantly referring to the father of the nation in his speeches. Modi, whose allegiance to Gandhi also stems from their common Gujarati origins, has at times taken on the Congress' by calling its leaders "nakli Gandhis" and at times to cite the Mahatma as an icon. While addressing a gathering of India Inc recently in the capital, Modi referred to Gandhi repeatedly and even recalled how, sitting beside a Sabarmati in full flow, he did not like to waste even half a glass of water.
It is ironical that more than 60 years after his death, the father of the nation remains an inspiring figure to parties occupying different segments of the political spectrum, equally good for 'socialist and secular' Congress, right-wing majoritarian BJP and the populist AAP. But the politicians appropriating Gandhi has irked the Mahatma's great grandson. Srikrishna Kulkarni has written to Rahul, appealing the Congress to stop the "charade".
On the other hand, Hitler's propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels, has become a favourite villain in political hyperbole. Last week, BJP leader Arun Jaitley said had Goebbels been reborn, he would have joined the AAP, referring to Kejriwal's strategy on his alleged detention in Gujarat. Jaitley's diatribe came a day after clashes broke out between BJP and AAP workers.
Earlier, Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar had described Modi as a follower of Hitler and Goebbels. The JD(U) leader, who had parted ways with the BJP over Modi's anoinment as BJP's chief of election committee last year, was miffed over Modi calling Bihar a "safe haven for terrorists".
Goebbels' analogy in political rhetoric is not new. About a year ago, a Congress leader had said that Goebbels' soul seemed to have entered into the Gujarat chief minister; the Congress leader said that over what he described as Modi's unparliamentary language against the UPA government.

Soul-sucking 'dementor' wasps and 8 other crazy new species
Soul-Sucking Dementor Wasp
Latin name: Ampulex dementor
Topics: Washington, D.C., Politics News
(Updated below – Update II – Update III – Update IV – Update V – Update VI)
Reports indicate that President Obama has selected Second Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Sonia Sotomayor to replace David Souter on the Supreme Court. The announcement will be made formally this morning at 10:15 a.m. EST. This nomination should be judged principally on two grounds: (1) her judicial opinions (which Scotusblog's Tom Goldstein comprehensively reviews here) and (2) her answers at her confirmation hearing. But based on everything that is known now, this seems to be a superb pick for Obama.
It is very encouraging that Obama ignored the ugly, vindictive, and anonymous smear campaign led by The New Republic's Jeffrey Rosen and his secret cast of cowardly Eminent Liberal Legal Scholars of the Respectable Intellectual Center. People like that, engaging in tactics of that sort, have exerted far too much influence on our political culture for far too long, and Obama's selection of one of their most recent targets both reflects and advances the erosion of their odious influence. And Obama's choice is also a repudiation of the Jeffrey-Rosen/Ben-Wittes/Stuart-Taylor grievance on behalf of white males that, as Dahlia Lithwick put it, "a diverse bench must inevitably be a second-rate bench."
Obama has also ignored the deeply dishonest right-wing attacks on Sotomayor, beginning with the inane objection to her perfectly benign and accurate comments on videotape that appellate judges, as distinct from district court judges, "make policy." Lawyer Anonymous Liberal thoroughly eviscerated that line of attack as the shallow and deceitful argument it is. A similar avenue of certain attack — that Sotomayor said in a 2001 speech that a female Latina judge has experiences that can inform her view of cases — is equally frivolous. There are a whole range of discretionary judgments which judges are required to make; does anyone actually doubt that familiarity with a wide range of cultural experiences is an asset?
It's possible to take that view too far to the point where it becomes troubling, and Sotomayor should (and certainly will) be asked about it, but the comments themselves are entirely mainstream and uncontroversial. As reflected by my own somewhat limited experience with Judge Sotomayor — in which, in one case, she upheld the dismissal at trial of a race discrimination claim in a case with a highly sympathetic African-American plaintiff (even after a different District Judge denied summary judgment dismissal of that claim) while reinstating the plaintiff's disability discrimination claim — she's hardly some rabid ideologue who dispenses with legal considerations in favor of social sympathies. Sotomayor's opinions as compiled by Goldstein, as well as those who know her best, demonstrate the same thing. One progressive legal group, Constitutional Accountability Center, already issued a statement praising her nomination:
Constitutional Accountability Center (CAC) applauds President Obama's historic nomination of Sonia Sotomayor to the United States Supreme Court. While CAC's review of Judge Sotomayor's record is continuing, we already know that she is a brilliant lawyer who is committed to ruling based on the Constitution and the law, not on her own personal political views. As Judge Sotomayor herself stated in a recent dissenting opinion: "The duty of a judge is to follow the law, not to question its plain terms."
The next Supreme Court Justice will have a critical voice in important decisions involving the Constitution's text, history and core principles. She will help decide cases regarding constitutional rights and liberties and constitutional challenges to laws that matter to the lives of everyday Americans — including cases involving voting rights, pay equity, and health, safety, and the environment. In Judge Sotomayor, we believe President Obama has found a nominee who will help ensure that the Constitution and laws are faithfully applied and remain true to their intended purpose as guardians of our rights, liberties, and equality.
There are many vital issues that Sotomayor should be asked about, obviously including her views on executive power limits, which — as Charlie Savage noted this weekend — are largely unknown. One's view of her selection should be shaped by things that are as yet unknown. But judging strictly from what is known, Obama deserves substantial credit for this choice. There were choices available to him that would have been safer among the Respectable Intellectual Center (Diane Wood) and among the Right (Elena Kagan). At his best, Obama ignores and is even willing to act contrary to the standard establishment Washington voices and mentality that have corrupted our political culture for so long. His choice of Sotomayor is a prime example of his doing exactly that, and for that reason alone, ought to be commended.
* * * * *
See also: this post, from earlier today, on the Brookings Institution and the false claims about the presidential oath.
UPDATE: Charles Krauthammer is already snarling on Fox News, warning viewers of the possible danger that — as he put it — Sotomayor's "concern for certain ethnicities override justice." He said that although her confirmation is certain, conservatives should oppose her nomination on principle and highlight that the type of justice Sotomayor allegedly represents — justice that is unfair to white people in favor of "certain ethnicities" — is deeply pernicious. That is such a baseless and ugly attack on her, but almost certainly what will be a focus of the right-wing strategy.
Sotomayor's ascent from Bronx housing project to Princeton and Yale Law School to Supreme Court nominee — driven by merit, intellect, talent and diligence — is nothing short of inspiring. Ugly, baseless attacks of the kind Krauthammer recommends will resonate with nobody outside of the small rump that is now the Republican Party.
UPDATE II: Here's the primary function of the life of The New Republic. From Red State today:
Conservatives rejoice. Of all the picks Obama could have picked, he picked the most intellectually shallow.
Even the New Republic has been rather scathing about her.
And from National Review:
If they had even a small amount of intellectual integrity, TNR Editors would be deeply ashamed of the central role they played in enabling this baseless, plainly false attack on Sotomayor as an intellectually deficient mediocrity. But for The New Republic, there is no greater source of pride than being approvingly cited by the Right with the "Even The New Republic . . . . " head-pat. That's their role in life, even if accomplished with patently reckless gossip masquerading as "journalism." That's one aspect of Obama's decision that is so commendable — discarding the sleazy tactics from our corrupted establishment Beltway sources.
UPDATE III: What is the basis for the seemingly now-widespread assumption that Sotomayor is some sort of left-wing pick? She was originally appointed to the bench by Bush 41 and her confirmation to the Second Circuit was supported by some of the most right-wing Senators (including Jesse Helms, Rick Santorum, Bill Frist and similar types). She began her law practice working as a District Attorney, prosecuting criminals. Anyone who wants to characterize her as "left-wing" — especially radical left-wing or even to the left of Souter — should be compelled to point to specific judicial rulings or other evidence for that characterization. The fact that she's Latina and from the Bronx isn't actually evidence of her ideology or judicial philosophy.
UPDATE IV: Along with several others, I contributed a short piece to the New York Times online discussion today on Obama's selection of Sotomayor. My contribution can be read here.
UPDATE V: Powerline — Time's 2004 Blog of the Year — asks: is Sotomayor "Che Guevara in robes?" To raise the comparison, the author of that rancid observation uses the Jeffrey Rosen method of "reporting": "That's how a friend of mine refers to Sonia Sotomayor," he claims. Why is the Right so hated? It's such a huge mystery (h/t Opinionator).
Speaking of TNR: now that Obama has selected Sotomayor, a much different tone has emerged over there. They have a post today from Law Professor Erwin Chemerinsky that praises Obama's selection as "brilliant" and adds: "Everything that is known about her indicates that she will be an easy confirmation and an outstanding justice." And even Rosen is now backtracking further from his smear piece, lamely objecting today that conservatives who are "citing [his] initial piece on Sotomayor as a basis for opposing her . . . . willfully misread[] both [his] piece and the follow-up response," Rosen now insists he believes that "Judge Sotomayor should be confirmed to the Supreme Court." John Cole says all that needs to be said about Rosen's sudden turn-around.
Relatedly, Brian Williams, on his blog, has a somewhat cryptic post that cites Rosen's original hit piece on Sotomayor along with my response to Rosen, and implies that he's revealing some new information about that episode based on his "reporting," though it's unclear what exactly is being revealed. Williams says that Rosen's piece "got the attention of White House staffers" but "now the original piece is under great scrutiny, as is the author's possible motives." If anyone knows what any of that means, please let me know. What I think Williams' note does reflect, as I speculated at the time, is that Rosen's gossipy smear attack will likely do far more damage to his own reputation than to Sotomayor's — and justifiably so.
UPDATE VI: At his Washington Post blog, Greg Sargent documents the misleading claims being made about the "wise Latina woman" passage from Sotomayor's 2001 speech. The always-insightful Dahlia Lithwick examines the dismal and unpromising arguments raised thus far by the Right in opposing the nomination. Politico's Michael Calderone further documents just how widespread was the Right's use today of Jeffrey Rosen's article to attack Sotomayor's intellect, and provides some helpful background on the Rosen smear here.
