Cape Cod Planter
Item # 40-361 WT
Dress up your outdoor living space with this elegant planter. With clean lines and raised panel detailing, it has the look of fine woodworking. But unlike wooden planters, this one is virtually maintenance free because it's made from high quality polyethylene — there's no need for annual painting or staining. With the best UV protection in the industry, this planter has a 15-year guarantee against fading. A reservoir and sub-irrigation system keeps soil moist for healthy growth, and reduces watering frequency.

Best Uses
I purchased 2 of these pots to use for my lighted Christmas trees because they kept toppling over in wind. Unfortunately, the sizing is not accurate. It is not 10 inches inside the pot. There is a ledge below the top that runs around the diameter of the pot that makes the internal dimension closer to 9 inches. That made the difference and my trees won't fit. I'll keep them for summer but I am very disappointed I can't use them for the purpose I had intended. I can't recommend this until the dimensions are corrected.
Best Uses
I use this planter on my front porch for annual plants. I find it very attractive for my house and it is large enough to have a nice size display. I like the self watering feature very much especially during very hot weather. I'm hopeful these will hold up well over several seasons. I've had other products from Gardner Supply that lasted over many winters even when I did not protect them inside during the colder months. I am going to house these inside during the winter and am very hopeful they will last indefinitely. The expense will be offset if this occurs. I have 3 on my porch.
Best Uses
I bought two of these to flank our front door. They look lovely with ficus trees in them however, one was delivered with a crack on the bottom corner that stores the water. Consequently, all the water leaked out. Fortunately, my husband is handy and sealed it up with caulking as they are fairly large and I didn't want to have to return. I would have rated these much higher if it weren't for that.

BHAKTAPUR: The Changunarayan Temple, a world heritage site in Bhaktapur district, is under high risk of landslide.
This historical temple is in peril after landslide occurred on its east and west side. The temple is located atop a hill.
Chakradharananda Rajopadhya, the temple priest, said the landslip to the western side of the temple has reached up to the Chandrasurya shrine, one of the nine such shrines located to the west of the temple. He complained that nobody has paid attention to protect the temple even when it is in dire straits.
The rampant quarrying of sand from the bank of the Manohara River that flows just below the Changunarayan Hill is blamed for the occurrence of numerous landslides on the hillside. The occurrence of landslide has risen since the last two years, it is stated.
The bodies concerned have been approached for preventing the quarrying of sand from the river and taking preventive measures for stopping landslides, but to no avail so far.

Specs for camera-led mobile unleashed ahead of formal announcement.
Panasonic is plotting a new direction, teasing a new Lumix phone, which will be unveiled next week at the CEATEC gadget fest over in Japan next week.

While pics remain under wraps, Panny has been more forthcoming with the blower's specs. Unsurprisingly, being a Lumix gadget, the camera leads the line with a colossal 13 megapixel CMOS sensor. There's also set to be HD imaging skills, with a 3.3-inch, 854x480 LCD on the front.
Wi-Fi and DLNA support are on board, with a microSDHC slot also thrown in for good measure. The Lumix phone tips the scales at 146g and measures 116x52x17.7mm. That's quite chunky, which suggests this could have some serious snapper skills inside.
More details are set to land on 5 October, so stay tuned for more as we get it.

Profit-taking drags market lower
popular .
Local stocks pulled back for a second straight session Tuesday, although on thin volume, as rich valuations spurred profit-taking.
The main-share Philippine Stock Exchange lost 24.53 points or 0.34 percent to close at 7,146.12, led by the property counter (-1.05 percent). It was earlier reported that the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas was considering more property lending curbs to ensure that the asset markets would not cause a bubble.
Value turnover was thin at P6.7 billion. There were 67 advancers, which were overwhelmed by 112 decliners, while 35 stocks were unchanged.
The index laggers were DMCI (-2.93 percent), JG Summit (-2.45 percent) and First Gen (-2.4 percent). Metrobank, SM Prime, Aboitiz Power, Belle, Metro Pacific Investments, Philex, URC and SM Investments also tumbled by more than 1 percent.
The index gainers were ICTSI, Jollibee and SMC, which all rose by more than 2 percent while Manila Water, Petron, Meralco, Aboitiz Equity Ventures, Bloomberry, Alliance Global and Ayala Corp. also closed higher.
Outside of the PSEi, APM (soon to change to Cosco) gained 2.5 percent as Lucio Co's holding firm was reported to be working on a $500-million equity deal.
Boulevard Holdings (+6.38 percent) likewise surged in heavy volume as more details on a prospective deal with Ayala Land on a resort-oriented landbank were disclosed. Doris C. Dumlao

#18801 accepted enhancement
Accessibility Enhancements to Settings API
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|Future Release
|Options, Meta APIs
|has-patch settings-api
I've only started working with the Settings API, but right off the bat I noticed two fairly major, but should be not too difficult to fix, accessibility issues.
1) The label/input field pairs are missing the HTML <label> tags that link the two.
Example: Field One <input id="field_one" name="field_one" type="text">
Should be rendered: <label for="field_one">Field One</label> <input id="field_one" name="field_one" type="text">
2) The settings pages themselves are laid out using a table. Tables should be reserved for tabular data, and not for page layout. CSS should be used for layout instead.
Thanks for your attention.

comment:3 @sabreuse — 3 years ago
attachment:18801.2.diff provides a fallback to the ID of the settings field in the case where label_for isn't explicitly provided. (The first diff used the title instead; that was wrong.)
The second problem identified in the ticket, tables in settings output, is discussed in the related tickets in comment 1 -- it's a bigger problem than just this ticket, so I suggest handling the label issue first.
comment:5 @azaozz — 3 years ago
The settings form elements that don't have <label> in the <th> have <fieldset> and <legend> with the same text. Those are usually multi-input, like radio buttons, that have individual labels.
Perhaps instead of <fieldset> and <legend> we can use aria-labelledby on them and point that to the <th>? That would avoid the repeating texts.

comment:15 @joedolson — 16 months ago
I'm looking at this ticket, and it seems very problematic to find a way to use the table header as a label if we don't have access to the user function in the callback. We can set something as an ID, but if we can't intercept the function to add a reference to that ID, I'm not sure what our options are, practically.
I'm going to take a look at the fieldset/legend issue raised by @azaozz as a separate ticket, but I'm not sure what our practical options are for labeling if there's no label_for key set.

Van Persie scores fastest goal of EPL season
LONDON (AFP) - Manchester United striker Robin van Persie needed just 33 seconds to score the fastest goal of the English Premier League season so far when he put the leaders ahead against West Ham on Wednesday.
The Dutch forward delighted the Old Trafford faithful when, after receiving the ball from Michael Carrick, his first touch eluded Winston Reid before his finish deflected off James Collins and looped over keeper Jussi Jaaskelainen.
Van Persie's goal was all the more extraordinary as, prior to Wednesday's match, United had conceded the first goal 13 times already this season.
His effort trumped that of his former Arsenal team-mate Theo Walcott, who took a comparatively sedate 52 seconds to give the Gunners the lead at Everton on Wednesday.

When the pangs of hunger start to occur, I WELCOME the sensation, because it means that my body is needing food / water and will break down the 'stores' of fat being carried around! A large glass of water is the answer. Often my body is needing fluids instrad of food and the water will quiet the hunger pangs. AND, the water will also help flush out the system.

The idea of the game as simple as possible: three thimbles and only one ball. The ball is placed under one cover, and they move fast enough and you must guess where the ball was in the end. If you were playing thimbles at the train station, the ball turned out not in the glass, but in the hands of a lucky tricksters. If you playing on phone or tablet, all without cheating.

Folk singer, activist Pete Seeger dies in NY
Seeger was a 2014 Grammy Awards nominee in the Best Spoken Word category, which Stephen Colbert won.
Seeger's sometimes ambivalent relationship with rock was most famously on display when Dylan "went electric" at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival.
Witnesses say Seeger became furious backstage as the amped-up band played, though just how furious is debated. Seeger dismissed the legendary tale that he looked for an ax to cut Dylan's sound cable, and said his objection was not to the type of music but only that the guitar mix was so loud you couldn't hear Dylan's words.
Seeger maintained his reedy 6-foot-2 frame into old age, though he wore a hearing aid and conceded that his voice was pretty much shot. He relied on his audiences to make up for his diminished voice, feeding his listeners the lines and letting them sing out.
"I can't sing much," he said. "I used to sing high and low. Now I have a growl somewhere in between."
Nonetheless, in 1997 he won a Grammy for best traditional folk album, "Pete."
Seeger was born in New York City on May 3, 1919, into an artistic family whose roots traced to religious dissenters of colonial America. His mother, Constance, played violin and taught; his father, Charles, a musicologist, was a consultant to the Resettlement Administration, which gave artists work during the Depression. His uncle Alan Seeger, the poet, wrote "I Have a Rendezvous With Death."
Pete Seeger said he fell in love with folk music when he was 16, at a music festival in North Carolina in 1935. His half-brother, Mike Seeger, and half-sister, Peggy Seeger, also became noted performers.
He learned the five-string banjo, an instrument he rescued from obscurity and played the rest of his life in a long-necked version of his own design. On the skin of Seeger's banjo was the phrase, "This machine surrounds hate and forces it to surrender" — a nod to his old pal Guthrie, who emblazoned his guitar with "This machine kills fascists."
Dropping out of Harvard in 1938 after two years as a disillusioned sociology major, he hit the road, picking up folk tunes as he hitchhiked or hopped freights.
"The sociology professor said, 'Don't think that you can change the world. The only thing you can do is study it,'" Seeger said in October 2011.
In 1940, with Guthrie and others, he was part of the Almanac Singers and performed benefits for disaster relief and other causes.
He and Guthrie also toured migrant camps and union halls. He sang on overseas radio broadcasts for the Office of War Information early in World War II. In the Army, he spent 3½ years in Special Services, entertaining soldiers in the South Pacific, and made corporal.
He married Toshi Seeger on July 20, 1943. The couple built their cabin in Beacon after World War II and stayed on the high spot of land by the Hudson River for the rest of their lives together. The couple raised three children. Toshi Seeger died in July at age 91.

A 2020 Action Agenda for Advancing the Arts in Education
"The Arts Leading the Way to Student Success: A 2020 Action Agenda for Advancing the Arts in Education" will serve as the blueprint for the collective work of the Arts Education Partnership for the next five years. By addressing the four priority areas highlighted in this Action Agenda, the Partnership will be moving toward the goal that, by the year 2020, every young person in America, at every grade level, will have equitable access to high quality arts learning opportunities, both during the school day and out-of-school time.

Frosh Brandon Knight leads Kentucky
Updated: August 17, 2010, 3:39 PM ETAssociated Press
WINDSOR, Ontario -- John Wall may have departed for the riches of the NBA, but a pair of young guards appear ready to try and fill the void for the Kentucky Wildcats.
Freshmen Brandon Knight and Doron Lamb each scored 25 points and junior Darius Miller added 24 for Kentucky in a 104-75 win over the University of Windsor on Tuesday -- the finale of a three-day, three-game exhibition trip to Canada for the Wildcats.
It was Kentucky's second victory on the trip over Windsor, which lost ...

Maruti Suzuki, India's biggest carmaker, on Friday reported a 35.5% year-on-year drop in its net profit for the fourth quarter of the last fiscal as it sold fewer vehicles due to ongoing economic slowdown and incurred higher expenses.
Net profit for January-March dropped to Rs 800 crore as against Rs 1,240 posted a year ago.
Analysts on an average were expecting a net profit of Rs 910 crore, as per estimates by Thomson Reuters.
Despite the launch of its new hatchback – Celerio -- company's domestic sales during the quarter fell 3% to 298,596 units from 308,871 units in the year-ago period.
Lower volumes, higher promotional expenses and stock compensation to dealers due to reduction in excise duty impacted the company's bottomline, a company statement said.
According to analysts, the major impact came from the expenses paid by the company on account of dealer compensation and higher employee costs.
The company paid Rs 143 crore during the quarter as dealer compensation due to reduction in excise duty, a company official said in an earnings call.
The government had cut excise duty 4-6% during the interim budget in February.
On the outlook, company's management told analysts that it is expecting a small recovery in the short to medium term.
"We will also launch new products and enter new segments this year," Ajay Seth, chief financial officer, Maruti Suzuki, told analysts.
Celerio was the only big launch from the company in the last fiscal. The company said it would look at launching 2-3 products this fiscal.
The company is looking at a capex of around Rs 4,000 crore in the current fiscal, compared with Rs 3,500 crore in the last, which will be spent on new product launches, research & development, and marketing and promotions.
Discounts continued during the quarter, in order to push sales in the market. However, its average discounts came down to Rs 17,500 in Q4 compared with 19,400 in Q3 of FY14.
"Enquiries are increasing, however they (customers) are deferring purchases. The continuation of discounts will depend on the market situation," said a company executive.
Maruti Suzuki is looking at increasing its rural network this fiscal and is targeting a 10% export growth. Rural currently contributes around 32% to the company's overall sales.
On the exports front, the company said it is looking at newer markets such as Africa and Europe and will be launching more products internationally.
For analysts, Maruti's performance was below estimates.
"However, new products launches, pent-up demand and higher rural exposure will benefit the company in this fiscal," said Yaresh Kothari, analyst with Angel Broking.
"Maruti Suzuki's operating performance was below our estimates, with Ebitda margins at 10.3%. We expect margins to revert to 12%+ levels this quarter onwards. The company has guided for a volume growth of 5-6% in the domestic market for this fiscal with exports likely to grow at 10%. We reiterate that Maruti Suzuki is the best play on the recovery in the macroeconomic situation," said Surjit Singh Arora, analyst with Prabhudas Lilladher.

Resources and power
Most of Malawi's mineral deposits are neither extensive enough for commercial exploitation nor easily accessible. Some small-scale mining of coal takes place at Livingstonia and Rumphi in the north, and quarrying of limestone for cement production is also an important activity. Precious and semiprecious stones are mined on a small scale; these include agate, aquamarine, amethyst, garnet, corundum, rubies, and sapphires. Exploration and assessment studies continue on other minerals such as apatite, located south of Lake Chilwa; bauxite, on the Mulanje massif; kyanite, on the Dedza-Kirk range; vermiculite, south of Lake Malawi near Ntcheu; and rare-earth minerals, at Mount Kangankunde northwest of Zomba. Deposits of asbestos, uranium, and graphite are known to exist as well. Also under investigation are base metals, gold rutile, and ilmenite sands.
Arable land is considered one of Malawi's most significant natural resources, although it is strained by both the country's high population density and its agriculture-based economy. Forests and woodlands cover about one-third of the country, and almost 4,000 square miles (10,300 square km) are in state-controlled forest reserves.
Malawi's water resources are plentiful, although some rural areas are inadequately supplied. Treated water for the major cities of Blantyre and Lilongwe is supplied by the Walker's Ferry Scheme and the Kamuzu Dam, respectively. Most of the rivers are seasonal, but a few large ones, particularly the Shire River along its middle course, have considerable potential for irrigation and electricity generation. Power demands are met by hydroelectric schemes, including those at Nkula Falls, Kapichira, and Tedzani Falls, and by diesel plants. Major consumers of electric power include the industrial areas of the south near Blantyre, where electricity consumption has steadily multiplied, and the industrial area of Lilongwe; the vast sugar estates at Nchalo and Dwangwa also consume much electricity. By contrast, only a fraction of Malawians themselves have electrical access, and almost all domestic energy needs are met by firewood.
Power availability has been hindered by different factors. The drying of rivers due to deforestation near their sources and along their courses has resulted in a reduction of water flow into Lake Malawi, which in turn has adversely affected the currents of the Shire, on which the Nkula and Tedzani hydroelectric plants are located. The devaluation of the Malawi kwacha has also had some effect on electricity supply in the country, as spare parts can be expensive and difficult to obtain. These factors have at times led to load shedding of electricity and therefore an irregular availability of power.
Malawi's small industrial sector is geared largely to processing agricultural products and to the manufacture of import substitutes (goods produced locally, often from imported materials, meant to replace products that were once purchased from abroad); construction and mining (mainly lime for cement and some coal) are also pursued. Although only a fraction of the workforce is employed in the sector, it accounts for some one-fifth of the Malawian GDP.
Development of the country's industrial base was accorded high priority at independence, and Malawi now satisfies much of its own domestic need for products such as cotton textiles, canned foodstuffs, beer, edible oils, soaps, sugar, radios, hoes, and shoes. However, the cost of machinery parts, equipment, and other imports needed for use in industry has made some of the locally manufactured items particularly expensive. Furthermore, an easing of import restrictions has led to an influx of cheaper goods, which have effectively competed against local products. The textile industry has particularly suffered from imported secondhand clothes, which many Malawians find more affordable than those produced domestically.
The Reserve Bank of Malawi is the central bank of the country; it issues the national currency, the Malawian kwacha, and advises the government on monetary policy. In addition, there are a number of commercial banks, the majority of which are centred in Blantyre. There are several insurance companies operating in the country, the largest of which, NICO Holdings Limited (formerly the National Insurance Company), was privatized in 1996.
The Malawi Stock Exchange (MSE), established in 1994 with aid from the IMF, the World Bank, and a development bank with links to the Dutch government, opened its doors to traders in 1996. A member of the African Securities Exchange Association, the MSE has a diverse supervising committee, including government and central bank representatives.
More than two-fifths of Malawi's foreign-exchange earnings are derived from exports of tobacco, of which Malawi is a leading producer. Sugar, tea, and cotton are also major exports; principal imports include chemicals and chemical products, petroleum products, consumer goods, machinery and transport equipment, and food. South Africa is Malawi's most significant trading partner, although sizable trade is also conducted with the United States, India, and Germany, as well as with a number of neighbouring African countries.
Services contribute substantially to Malawi's GDP, and this sector grew consistently in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Malawi's natural wealth—including its parks and reserves, biodiversity, and pleasant climate—is considered a source of great tourism potential. A variety of sites have been marked by the government for development as ecotourism destinations.

And now, we wait
Posted by Emily Lakdawalla
Phoenix is away from Florida; its first and second stages appear to have performed absolutely beautifully. Now there is a 1-hour wait -- apparently, the longest in Delta launch history -- before the second firing of the second stage motor. Phoenix is not yet free of Earth; it's in orbit now. It will take another two-minute firing of the second stage motor, and then the burn of the third-stage motor, to take it onward to Mars.
Here's some grainy NASA TV of the launch; I'll have better images to post later...Here's a neat shot, showing the last three solid rockets in the act of being jettisoned. And here's a photo of the pad, now empty. Now they can get Dawn restacked on the adjacent pad!

07 October 2013 23:47 [Source: ICIS news]
HOUSTON (ICIS)--Fertilizer producer Mosaic announced it has lowered its forecast for total 2013 global potash shipments from 55m-57m tonnes to 54m-55m tonnes.
Speaking to investors on Monday, Mosaic officials said weaker demand coming from India and a delay between trading venture Canpotex and Chinese customers in finalizing the second-half potash contract have caused the company to trim back its initial projections.
Although the market has been turbulent since late summer, Mosaic CFO Larry Stranghoener predicts the global trend will see an uptick in demand. He projects volumes to rebound to approximately 57m-59m tonnes by 2014.

A.M. Best Affirms Ratings of Members of Donegal Insurance Group, Michigan Insurance Company and Donegal Group Inc. Business Wire OLDWICK, N.J. -- September 17, 2013 A.M. Best Co. has affirmed the financial strength ratings (FSR) of A (Excellent) and issuer credit ratings (ICR) of "a" of the members of the Donegal Insurance Group (Marietta, PA) (Donegal Group) , as well as Michigan Insurance Company (MICO) (Grand Rapids, MI). In addition, A.M. Best has affirmed the ICR of "bbb" of the publicly traded holding company, Donegal Group Inc. (Delaware) [NASDAQ: DGICA and DGICB]. The outlook for all ratings is stable. (See below for a detailed listing of the member companies.) The affirmation of the ratings of the Donegal Group members is based on supportive risk-adjusted capitalization, sound balance sheet liquidity, generally positive earnings and good business profile, which includes geographic and product line diversification, effective use of technology in the independent agency distribution channel and a history of successful expansion through strategic acquisitions and affiliations. Although the individual members within the Donegal Group play a specific role in the organization's overall business plan and their operating performances may vary, each contributes favorably to the group's risk-adjusted capitalization. In addition, each of the members support the corporate business strategy and benefit from shared senior management, intercompany reinsurance and the added financial flexibility of Donegal Group Inc. to raise capital through debt or equity offerings during favorable investment markets. These positive rating factors are offset in part by the organization's overall less favorable operating performance over the last five years, below average interest rates and a slightly higher expense structure. Operating performance in recent years has been adversely impacted by more frequent and severe weather events and lower investment yields. However, earnings improved in 2012 and through the first six months of 2013, and A.M. Best looks favorably upon the actions being taken by management to improve operating performance through rate increases, stronger underwriting standards and use of enterprise risk management. The ratings of MICO are mainly reflective of its sound capitalization, historically favorable operating performance and the benefits it derives from its ultimate parent, Donegal Mutual Insurance Company. These attributes are partially offset by MICO's concentration of risk in Michigan, above average gross leverage and dependence on reinsurance to lower its net retained risks to a more manageable level, compounded by a weakened economy. The ICR of Donegal Group Inc. recognizes the overall financial strength of the property/casualty insurance operation, its moderate amount of financial leverage and the subordination of its creditors to the insurance companies' policyholders. The ratings would be further stabilized by stronger earnings, which could lead to capital appreciation. However, the organization's outlook may be revised to negative and/or the ratings downgraded if capitalization significantly weakens or a positive trend towards sustained underwriting profitability does not develop. The FSR of A (Excellent) and ICRs of "a" have been affirmed for the following members of Donegal Insurance Group: *Atlantic States Insurance Company *Donegal Mutual Insurance Company *Le Mars Insurance Company *The Peninsula Insurance Company *Peninsula Indemnity Company *Sheboygan Falls Insurance Company *Southern Insurance Company of Virginia *Southern Mutual Insurance Company The methodology used in determining these ratings is Best's Credit Rating Methodology, which provides a comprehensive explanation of A.M. Best's rating process and contains the different rating criteria employed in the rating process. Best's Credit Rating Methodology can be found at www.ambest.com/ratings/methodology. A.M.

I have been a full time motorcycle commuter most of my adult life.
The bikes I owned that were primarily used for commuting.
HD Sportster
2 Honda CB750's
Honda XL250
Suzuki GS850
Kawasaki GPZ550
Yamaha KLX650
Yamaha V-Star 650 classic
Ducati E-900
And for the past 5 years, a Ural patrol.
Sticking to 2 wheelers, I have to give the nod to the V-Star.
Not as much protection or carrying capacity as a tour or sport tour bike, but with a wind screen and bags, its still better than average
Fairly low in the power and speed department, but delivers its power how and where you need it in real world conditions.
Not as nimble as a dual sport or sportbike, but very easy to ride in stop and go traffic, and other slow, tight conditions.
The ergos are fairly neutral for a cruiser and quite comfortable for a few hours. .
I don't really care for cruisers, its a very uninspiring bike to ride recreationally, but they can be had dirt cheap, will take mishaps with little consequence, is unlikely to be stolen, has shaft drive, requires minimal maintenance, and is very reliable
I haven't ridden it in 5 years, but still have it as backup transportation because it made such a good commuter.

BBC Licence Fee
Likes # 0
Posted October 23, 2012 at 7:05PM
Some years ago I took part in "Any Questions". I asked if the BBC Licence Fee was past its sell-by date? Gerald Kaufman was on the Team and I well knew his antipathy to the Licence Fee.
His arguments did not convince me and, in the past, I always trusted the good old BBC. During World Wide travels the BBC World Service always provide a reliable update of world events with little UK slant.
As the years have passed I have come to look upon the BBC less favourably, exorbitanttant salaries, expenses and perks together with variable programming has made me think that it is time for a change.
If a cost reduced BBC was paid for by general taxation the poorer people would save money and the expense added to the richer people, even the Oldies like me.

I think BBC is good value for money. Having "endured" TV in countries that have advertising supported TV such as Australia and USA in my view there is no comparison. I cannot stand 4 1/2 minutes or so every 1/4 hour of ads, such that when I watch ITV I try to use "catch up" on a DVD recorder, using fast forward to jump the ads.As ,I believe , over 95% of households have TV and presumably pay the licence, it would cost the same on average if the BBC were paid by the government collected by increased taxation. The question is Do enough people want advertising absent TV to fund it in a version of the present system? On average I think BBC TV has better programmes than its rivals, but no doubt it could be slimmed as oresome says.

FE If the TV Licence was abolished the cost of collection and enforcement would disappear. My point about paying for the BBC on General Taxation would mean that the cost is spread amongst the Tax Paying population including people, like me, over the age of 74.

74,000 hours does sound impressive, but is actually only just over 100 hours each. If we consider 6 hours of peak viewing time each night, for 365 days, that totals 2100 hours, so the 100 hours of quality viewing, is just 5% of output, not so impressive.
Ermmm... you might want to think about what you've said.
690 customers means 690 TV broadcasters, each of them transmitting to tens of millions of people. You don't simply divide 74,000 by 690 and say that each of them took 100 hours. Some of them took much more than that, and some less. We're talking about drama series, David Attenborough series, comedy series, and lots of documentary series. it's not the number of hours per country that matters, it's the value of the sales, and overseas sales are to commercial TV channels. Those companies increase their revenues by attracting more prestige advertising, and they get that by screening top-quality content. The BBC is renowned for quality, which is why it does so well in those markets.
Last year was a record year for the BBC in terms of overseas sales, and that's hardly likely to be the case if the quality of the output had declined. BBC programmes are in worldwide demand, due entirely to the fact that the quality is high.
It's fair to say that sales of ITV programmes is pretty good as well, but there's a problem for them, in that lots of their output isn't made in-house, so ITV doesn't get the all the money. Big hit series like Downton Abbey are veritable gold mines - Downton has been sold to over 200 other broadcasters - but it is made by a company called Carnival films, and that company benefits from the international sales and DVD market sales - ITV only gets the advertising revenues which flow from the transmission slots.
For the week ending 14th October BBC1 and BBC2 attracted 26.3% of the total viewing audience. ITV, ITV+1, and ITV HD between them had 17.5%, Channel 4 and 4+1 managed 6.5% and Channel 5 and 5+1 got 4.5%. Other viewing accounted for the rest. Quality output gets big audiences.

"I don't really have the time for another of your wriggling sessions, so I'll leave you with it."
While I perhaps often fail to make myself clear, it is not a matter of "wriggling"'
Others often have straight disagreements with me, but not many seem to pick up on niggling little points of pedantry in as many of my posts as you seem to.
I don't have a problem with this, as I said , it is my own fault for not making myself more clearly understood in the first place, but I don't wriggle. I have never been afraid to admit I was wrong, and to apologise when appropriate, as I do here for lack of clarity, or to change my views when convinced by argument.

Now that the BBC is on Freeview, it should be fairly simple to implement a subscription service, lots of channels do it.
I agree that in principle TV broadcasts can easily be encrypted, but there must be millions of receivers in use that don't have a card slot.
It would be another excercise akin to the digital switchover and unacceptable to the general public so soon after that event if it meant shelling out more money.

"not many seem to pick up on niggling little points of pedantry"
I think you'll find that I pick up on points of fact. As for pedantry, a single wrong word can alter the entire meaning of a sentence, and in a written debating situation all other people have to go on are the words you write.
Everyone makes mistakes, there's no shame in it, but what is irritating is when someone is challenged on a fact and they try to pretend that they didn't say what is there for all to see. A simple admission of error is far better, and soon forgotten.

I'm all for a license fee as long as it keeps those irritating adverts away from at least four channels.
Now Patten is in charge things should improve as to how financial waste is managed. He's taken a pay cut from the bloated salary his predecessor used to enjoy and hopefully he'll kick out a lot of grey suits on inflated pay checks too.
Unfortunately for him he's got to try and sort out the huge Saville mess and try and reinstigate the trust most held in 'Aunty'. It could take a long time and if lots of heads will roll as the investigations unfold we may well see the BBC change beyond recognition. That would be a great shame.

"Now Patten is in charge things should improve as to how financial waste is managed. He's taken a pay cut from the bloated salary his predecessor used to enjoy and hopefully he'll kick out a lot of grey suits on inflated pay checks too."
I believe that Chris Patten is part of the problem, rather than being the solution - as is George Entwhistle, the ineffective, bumbling 'suit' who Chris Patten hailed as a man with the 'clear vision' the BBC needed for the future.
Both men should stand down and make way for people who know the business, and have the qualities of leadership both jobs demand.
Chris Patten is a nice, decent, cultured individual with a considerable experience of political leadership. I know people who knew him personally when he was Governor of Hong Kong, and they say he was superb in the role.
Unfortunately he doesn't have a clue when it comes to broadcasting, and he shows signs of being overwhelmed by the elitist culture at the top of the BBC - he seems to spend his time being an apologist for BBC shortcomings. he should do the decent thing at the earliest opportunity, preferably joined by George Entwhistle, whose pathetic performance in front of the Commons culture select committee confirmed that he isn't fit for purpose.

What is going to happen if it is discovered that other influential presenters were playing the same games as Jimmy Saville? It would knock dear old "Aunty" for six I suppose.
I no longer pay toward the licence fee, but I feel that when I was paying it a big lump of it went toward keeping Mr Saville in a life of luxury. I am not happy about that and if there are more slugs and weevils under the roof of Broadcasting House I am going to feel even more angry.

The term Proto-Malay, which translates to Melayu asli (aboriginal Malay) or Melayu purba (ancient Malay), refers to Austronesian speakers from mainland Asia who moved to the Malay peninsula and Malay archipelago in a long series of migrations between 2500 and 1500 BC.[3] The Proto-Malays are the ancestors of the Malays in the modern Malaysia and Indonesia.[4]
The Proto-Malays are believed to be seafarers knowledgeable in oceanography and possessing advanced fishing as well as basic agricultural skills. They moved around from island to island in great distances between New Zealand and Madagascar, and they served as navigation guides, crew and labour to Indian, Arab, Persian and Chinese traders for nearly 2000 years. Over the years, they settled at various places and adopted various cultures and religions as a result of acculturation and interracial and inter-tribal marriages with most of the people they come in contact with including with other Orang Asli tribes such as the Semang and Senoi peoples.
The Encyclopedia of Malaysia: Early History has pointed out three theories of the origin of the Proto-Malay:
- The Yunnan theory, Mekong river migration (first published in 1889). The theory of Proto-Malay originating from Yunnan is supported by R.H Geldern, J.H.C Kern, J.R Foster, J.R Logen, Slametmuljana and Asmah Haji Omar. Other evidence that supports this theory includes: stone tools found at Malay Archipelago which are analogous to Central Asian tools; similarity of Malay customs and Assam customs; and the fact that the Malay and Cambodian languages are kindred languages because the ancestral home of Cambodians originated at the source of Mekong River.
- The New Guinea theory (first published in 1965).
- The Taiwan theory (first published in 1997). For more information, see Austronesian languages.
Some historical linguists have concluded that there is scant linguistic basis for a Proto-/Deutero-Malay split.[5] The findings suggests that the Proto-Malay and the Deutero-Malay peoples possibly belong to the same stock and origin. Previous theories suggested that the Deutero-Malays came in a second wave of migration, around 300 BCE, compared to the arrival of the Proto-Malays who came much earlier.

The Samajwadi Party seems to love courting controversy, with each of their leaders trying to make one outrageous comment after the other. While the EC keeps sending notices, clearly none seem to work.
We took a look at more outrageous comments Samajwadi leaders have made in recent times.
Azam Khan – His statements on the role of Muslims during the Kargil war created a furore within both the army and the general public. He had also called the BJP's Amit Shah as a "goonda number ek" and as a "302 ka mujrim... apradhi".
Abu Azim Azmi – He was slapped by a MNS leaders in the Maharashtra legislature. Just recently, he claimed that women who have sex (consensual or otherwise) outside of marriage must be hanged. In 2012 he was convicted of making a hate speech in 2000 at Nagpada.
Mulayam Singh Yadav – His latest remark has been, "ladke, ladke hain, galti ho jati hai" adding that "Ladkiyan pehle dosti karti hain. Ladke-ladki mein matbhed ho jata hai. Matbhed hone key baad usey rape ka naam dey deti hain. Ladko sey galti ho jati hai. Kya rape case mein phasi di jayegi?"
But this hasn't been the first time Singh has made such ridiculous statements and clearly if the Election Commission doesn't take strict action, it surely won't be the last.
Shivpal Singh Yadav – Yadav condoned corruption amongst government officials if they are hard workers. When confronted about it, he said, "I told PWD officials that if you work hard, you can steal a little but do not behave like dacoits" and grinned about it.
