The Executive Mansion says it strongly rejects claims contained in an article titled "The Muah Brothers in position to take full control of GOL's Interest in the Cable Consortium of Liberia (CCL)," which appeared on the official website of TLC Africa.
The EM said the article, written by Ms. Ciata Victor, administrator of the website and one of the suspended members of the Liberia Telecommunications Corporation Board, contained misinformation which needed to be clarified.
According to a release, the Executive Mansion rejects the contents of the article in its entirety and believes it represents total misinformation that has no bearing or connection as to why the LIBTELCO Board of Directors and its Managing Director were suspended by President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf on Friday, December 20, 2013, following the Board's meeting with the President.
The Executive Mansion indicated that the Liberian leader suspended the LIBTELCO Board and Managing Director based on a recommendation from the Ministry of Justice, for entering into and executing a Memorandum of Understanding with Ketter Telecom (K3), a Swiss Company, and at the same time, entered a joint venture with K3 Telecom Liberia (K3TELECOM), a Company organized under the laws of Liberia.
The EM release noted that both of the agreements were not consistent with the laws of Liberia, including in particular the Executive Law, the PPCC law, and the Public Financial Management Law.
Therefore, the suspension was also based on the fact that the LIBTELCO Board and Management failed to submit the draft MOU with Ketter Telecom (K3) and the Agreement with K3Telecom Liberia, to the Ministry of Justice for attestation as required by law, and because it was established by the Justice Ministry that some provisions in both documents are onerous and not in furtherance of the interests of the Corporation, the Government and people of Liberia.
LIBTELCO is a 100 percent Government-owned Corporation. It is also vital to the national defense and security of the Republic of Liberia. Its assets including infrastructure, permits and licenses are wholly and solely owned by the Government of the Republic of Liberia. Hence, no one has the authority to unilaterally dispose of same without the approval of the Government of Liberia, the Executive Mansion accentuated.
The release further stated that the agreements executed by LIBTELCO were not in compliance with the laws governing the execution of agreements. Under the Executive law, "No employee of the Executive branch of the Government shall enter into any agreement to which the Government is a party or execute any other legal document affecting the interest of the Government without first obtaining from the Ministry of Justice advice concerning its validity and legal effect."
Moreover, the requirement for the review and attestation of agreements by the Ministry of Justice prior to execution is not limited to the Executive law, but also to the Public Financial Management Act of 2009. Section 24(4) of the PFM Act also provides that: "All contracts falling within the threshold set forth in the regulations under the Public Procurement and Concessions Commission Act as amended to date shall be reviewed and approved by the Minister and attested to by the Minister of Justice or his/her designee."
Finally, Regulation No. 003, on Thresholds of the Amended and Restated PPC Act, 2010, Section 10 on Contracts over US$250,000 also states that: "The Ministry of Finance shall take part in negotiations and signing of contracts over US$250,000 and the contract shall be attested to by the Ministry of Justice."
The Executive Mansion concluded that all of the above-mentioned provisions of the different laws were violated in the Memorandum of Understanding with Ketter Telecom (K3) and the agreement with K3 Telecom Liberia (K3TELECOM). Hence the President was constrained to suspend the Board of Directors and the Managing Director of LIBTELCO to vindicate the integrity of the law and to protect the interests of the Government of Liberia.
During the period of the suspension, the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications Dr. Frederick Norkeh will act as Chairman of the LIBTELCO Board.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Sara Kimberley, campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 08 November 2012 08:00AM
The brand has already approached agencies with an RFI as part of the statutory review process.
Andrex's digital account, which includes social media, is currently held by WCRS. The agency has handled the business for the past four years and is expected to repitch for the account.
WCRS recently launched a digital campaign across Andrex's Facebook page, increasing its "likes" from 300 to 300,000 in 18 months.
JWT London handles Andrex's advertising account and is unaffected by the review. In September, it relaunched a real puppy mascot for the brand as part of a one-off £2 million campaign to celebrate Andrex's 40th anniversary. The brand had not used real puppies in its advertising since 2010.
The activity focused on Andrex's partnership with the charity Guide Dogs and sought to encourage consumers to help raise funds to train 40 guide dogs. Andrex used
its digital platform, Puppy Points, to help raise nearly £300,000 to cover the costs of training the dogs over a two-year period.
Consumers were able to donate by scanning a code on promotional Andrex packs with their smartphone or by buying guide-dog soft toys. The dogs' progress could be tracked via Facebook.

The accreditation system
The accreditation system has been used by the Federation for several decades. Its aim is to facilitate both the work and access of all of the professionals who take part in fashion shows and to ensure compliance with the intellectual property rights of the fashion houses and the various participants in the shows. The system requires a press accreditation application signed by the head of each media organization that identifies the journalists and photographers whom the Federation is asked to accredit. This document also reminds photographers of applicable legislation, particularly concerning the release of fashion pictures. Based on these applications, the Federation prepares a press list, which is sent to all of the houses presenting collections during fashion shows. It is on the basis of this press list that the fashion houses prepare their guest lists. Fashion shows are not open to the public. They are private events reserved in priority for professionals who report on them within the time limits fixed in the accreditation application and respect the design houses' intellectual property rights. Only those holding an invitation from the houses may attend the shows. The design houses have given the Federation authority for overseeing compliance with the accreditation system.
News agencies
Only those news agencies on the official list drawn up in accordance with the French Government Order of 2 November 1945 may submit applications and be accredited.

A few weeks ago when I was interviewing playwright Iddo Netanyahu about his first produced play "A Happy End", he made an admiring comment about the lead actress he cast, Czech-born Zuzana Stivínová and her "European sensuality". This, he said, added depth and enigma to her role.
"American actresses didn't get it," he said. But when I asked him to elucidate what he meant, he couldn't.
Last night, I had the chance to see a staged reading of "A Happy End" at the Museum of Tolerance and Netanyahu was right to describe her performance as special. She was the most seductive member of the cast and brought a charisma to the stage that enriched and enlivened an otherwise simple stage rendering. The best way to describe what Netanyahu must have meant by the "European sensuality" that eludes more (ordinary? hard-edged? invulnerable?) American women is this: strong of mind, softness of manner, elegance in style.
Her voice was deep and rich, her dialogue spun in cadences that sounded like song; her body tall and slender, her movements sure and fluid; and her ideas, though not always wise, delivered with intelligence and passion.

What a GORGEOUS day out today! I definitely need to take advantage of it. Yesterday was just as beautiful and I took my 3.5 mile run through my hometown.
I also received the professional pictures from the Cox 5K! Looks like I finished strong.
This past week of training was definitely a successful one. The beautiful weather helped motivate me to get outside and my gym membership proved to be extremely useful for my cross training days.
Monday: Strength & Stretch – Pyramid Arm Workout from Nutrition Nut on the Run
Tuesday: 2.5 miles @ 23 minutes @ 9:15 pace
Wednesday: 32 minute cross training @ 9.4 miles on the stationary bike
Thursday: 2 miles @ 18 minutes @ 9:05 pace
Friday: Rest Day
Saturday: 40 minute cross training @ 3.14 miles on the elliptical
Sunday: 3.5 miles @ 34 minutes @ 9:39 pace
Sunday's run was a bit brutal. It was hot in the morning and there were a few more hills than I'm used to. I did have to stop a few times to walk but I finished the last half mile by running it at a 7:45 pace! I guess I just wanted to get it over with.
How was your weekend? Do anything special for Mother's Day? I spent a lovely lunch with my parents, grandmother and uncle.

You report that a NASA astrophysicist has suggested that aliens might send signals in the wake of gamma-ray bursts, as the powerful bursts would attract the attention of other civilisations (This Week, 8 May, p 16). However, contrary to the article, detecting such a signal would reveal nothing about how far away the aliens were.
A message beamed to us by aliens as soon as a gamma-ray burst passes them heading in the Earth's direction would take the same time to reach us as the burst itself would need for the remainder of its journey to us. We would therefore see their message immediately after the burst, whatever the distance between the aliens and ourselves, so the timing would reveal nothing about the distance between our planets.
The mistake lies in deducing that "because the sources of gamma-ray bursts are extremely remote", we and any aliens in our Galaxy ...

If you're having a very informal or small wedding, you can still create your table plan but maybe let your guests choose their seats at the table. Tip 2: Traditionally the top table with include the bride and groom, their parents, the best man and chief bridesmaid. If there are divorced parents you may want to consider including their new partners, if this is not possible sit them as close to the top table as possible. Tip 3: Sit young children with their parents but consider sitting the older children together. For the younger children, think abou...

I got distracted while whipping the whipped cream and now it's cement.
"You can actually bring it back by drizzling in a tablespoon of heavy cream and folding it in with a rubber spatula," says Bishop. "Gently. You don't need to be using the electric mixer any more. You've worked that cream enough. In a pinch you could try using milk, but cream is obviously going to be a lot better."

ANKARA, Turkey — The government of Turkey has asked Iraq to extradite two suspected Turkish Islamic militants held in Abu Ghraib prison so it can try them in connection with the 2003 Istanbul suicide bombings that killed more than 60 people, the Foreign Ministry said Wednesday.
Turkey's Justice Ministry asked Iraqi authorities in June to extradite suspects Sadettin Akdas and Burhan Kus, and Iraqi authorities were evaluating documents about the suspects, the Foreign Ministry statement said.
Media reports Wednesday said the two had been captured this year during fighting near the northern Iraqi town of Tall Afar.
Kus, 32, has been indicted by Turkish prosecutors on suspicion that he helped build the Istanbul truck bombs. Akdas, 22, is accused of being a member of the terrorist cell that helped carry out the attacks.

Redneck Ranch & Farrier Services
Right Lead Equestrian Center
Odessa SK
At Redneck Ranch, we only take on 4 outside horses a month for training. Us only taking this limited number of horses means your horse gets the attention it needs. When your horse leaves here, it should be able to go on to any discipline that you choose - with softness and confidence. When starting a colt or working with an older horse, we don't just ride in an arena. Our facilities include an outdoor arena and round pen. We trailer out to indoor arenas and local gymkhana clubs. We will also take them on trail rides through the Qu'Appelle Valley. All of our horses are started in the round pen and ridden in a halter the first couple of times. If needed, we will also ground drive them and, in the near future, will be breaking horses to harness. We both believe that the only way to get good quiet horses is to ride them and expose them to as much as possible, no matter what discipline you choose to do.

The genome of the poisonous puffer fish has been sequenced by an international consortium of researchers. Comparison with the "clean" DNA of the fish will help scientists pick out human genes from the background "junk".
The human genome was sequenced earlier this year. Researchers have since been sifting through the three billion units of information to identify the genes, their structure and functions. But it is an arduous task because so much of the genome is "junk" DNA, which does not code for proteins.
So researchers are turning to the genomes of related vertebrates such as the puffer fish or the mouse to better understand the human counterpart. And the puffer fish Fugu rubripes is a prime candidate.
"The gene complement within Fugu looks to be very similar to the gene complement known right now within humans," says Trevor Hawkins, consortium team member and director of the Joint Genome Institute (JGI) in Walnut Creek, California.
Crucially, the fish uses only 350 million base pairs to code for the genes, lacking most of the junk DNA in the human genome. JGI's Dan Rokhsar says, "It's almost like the human genome written in shorthand."
Given the compact Fugu genome, identifying genes and the DNA sequences that regulate these genes should be much easier. Armed with that data, researchers can extract related parts from the human genome.
"In terms of the human genome project, having the Fugu genome is going to be one of the real landmarks in linking the genome to genes to proteins all the way up to molecular medicine," says Hawkins.
George Weinstock, co-director of the Baylor College of Medicine's Human Genome Sequencing Center in Houston, Texas, agrees: "This allows us to ferret more and more from the human genome in terms of the important sequences that are there."
"This is the very, very beginning of what is going to become the dominant theme in genomics in the next few years," he says.
Shotgun sequence
To sequence the Fugu genome, researchers in the US, England, and Singapore used a technique called the whole genome shotgun sequencing. They chopped up the Fugu genome into small pieces, decoded each one, and then used sophisticated computer software to piece together the fragments. So far, they have identified nearly 90 per cent of the Fugu genome, says Hawkins.
A similar method was used by Celera Genomics of Rockville, Maryland, to sequence the human genome. But they had access to public information that identified certain sequences of DNA as landmarks on the genome that could be used to assemble the fragments.
However, the Fugu consortium assembled the shot-gunned DNA sequences without any such landmarks. "This is quite a significant step forward," says Hawkins.
The consortium announced their results on Friday at the 13th International Genome Sequencing and Analysis Conference in San Diego, California.
The sequencing of a second type of puffer fish, with a similarly compact genome, was announced at the same time. The Tetraodon nigroviridis was sequenced by Genoscope in Paris, France and the Whitehead Institute Center for Genome Research.

Please tell me what wrestling camps are the best?
Please tell me what wrestling camps are the best?
I can tell which ones were not so good-The JRobinson Camp...
I thought for sure that it would be great, graet named wrestlers, great locations, and legendary wrestlers having attended.
But what I saw...
I sent 10 of my varsity wrestlers to the camp and I showed up to watch a few sessions (I did not want to be around much so that they had a break from my coaching) and watched my wrestlers play more games than drill or wrestle, witnessed their "camp counselor" getting stoned and smoking, then throwing their cigerette butts at the kids below their balcony, and camp counselor's not willing to wrestle with my athletes because they were busy trying to get some girls phone number. When I wrote to the JRob camp directors regarding the situation, just trying to explain what was going on, not trying to get money back or anything-they never once got back with me. I tried calling and they kept telling me that they will have their boss call-nothing ever happened.
I was terribly disappointe din the camp and had heard great things about them in teh past, but this one camp was horrible.
I would suggest the Hitchcock/Azevedo Camp in Lake Tahoe, CA or a Ken Chertow camp (located all over the US at various times).
I enjoyed Michigan Universtiy Wrestling camp. Also learned a lot at the Milkovich wrestling camp in Berea, OH.
I attended the 2008 28day J Robinson intensive camp, and the only day we EVER got to play any sort of game, of any kind, was on soccer day, where we played soccer for 1 hour or so, and it was INTENSE, BRUTAL, and VIOLENT. Our Counselors were there to push us, and motivate us, and make sure we never gave up. They never once did anything that would harm us, or keep us from achieving our full potential and our highest goals. I loved the camp, the pain, the blood and the sweat, everything it did for me as a person, and as a man. It changed my LIFE! the grueling 6am runs that are harder than most high school practices, the technique practice, which was extremely helpful, and felt like a normal hard practice at school, and the Hard Practice, which I can do no justice to it if I tried to describe it, and the evening run and/or practice, which was a either an intense, lasting burnout for the night, or a cooldown technique practice. The camp was worth every cent, and then some. IF you go, you will not be disappointed. I wouldnt take the time to write this if I didnt feel so strongly about what it did for me and everyone there, and I think the guy above might have sent his kid to the technique camp or something, because those kids were the most annoying kids I have ever seen in my life, and all we would do is shake our heads at them as they left their practice, right before we began Hard Practice. They knew nothing of what we did.
Totally agree J Rob camp is a ball buster and will test your every limit. Great camp, Chertow puts on top of the line camps as well.
Jeff Jordan's camps are outstanding
How does the Iowa State 21 day world class intensive camp compare to Jrob?
Jordan's camp are outstanding but he is kind of selective in who his campers/future falcons are.
Seriously though I attended his first year in summer of 95 and they are top notch, and have only gotten better since that time.

Ok well maybe we are all faster than we thought we were, further down the list is the course we ran, with the mile markers and turnarounds in the places notated as best as I remember. Check out the course map for OR10010.
Oops, its actually TWO blocks from Taylor to Main. Joe's GPS is looking pretty good.
Yes, it is short because they do not run the certified course. This would be easy (and good) to fix by adjusting the out and back. It has been highlighted to them in the past but seem to have to much inertia to change. It is at least a 0.1 short. The certified course is listed on http://www.usatf.org/events/courses/search/searchResults.asp?lastName=Barrett&firstInitial=Lee After the start has a turn away from Taylor to Main. In a mapping program measuring the two long sides of that block comes out at 184 yards which is pretty close to a 0.1 mi. To be fairer, that course comment is related to OR07008LB but in their materials they cite that they run OR07002LB for which the map is hidden but still available by directly typing the ID into a URL, http://www.usatf.org/events/courses/maps/showMap.asp?courseID=OR07002LB. For this one, the start is further up Taylor, maybe they tried to compensate for using a hybrid of these courses by using the start from 07008 and the rest of the course from 07002. For me, the mile markers were all off about 0.1 mile - accurate between them but short to begin with, about as much as taking out the block around to Main at the beginning.
Otherwise I had a good day and think of it more like a cross-country race of approximate distance and just race and raise money for a good cause.
Wrestling was dropped to bring in baseball.
Went to the open house tonight for the Cornelius Pass Road construction. The section that will be closed is just at the bridge so local traffic will be allowed north from Baseline and south from Quatama. The map in the article above is the correct construction zone but wrong that it is all closed. The contracts have not been finalized yet, but the plan is for the bridge section to be closed from June/August to December/Feb2011. Concrete takes several weeks to cure after it is poured before you can finish construction on it.
When finished, Cornelius Pass Road will be 5 lanes wide from Baseline to Wilkins (where the MAX tracks go over). From Wilkins north to Walbridge (Winco) will stay the same 2 lanes throughout at least 2014. That section of road will be very expensive (estimated $25 million to do now compared to $15 mil for the are doing) because the road is along the creek and requires EPA-regulated creek protection. There will be bike lanes and sidewalks along both sides of the road.
South of Baseline will not be closed but will be under construction, traffic lanes will be added to make it 5 lanes wide as south as possible with the given money, either Lois or Frances. If you drive it now, notice how far the sidewalk is from the road, that is where the new lanes will be placed.
We started at 2:45 pm and finished at 6:45 pm. My comment on the congestion and portapotties is it depends where in the race you are. We never had big lines at portapotties, in fact many of the times there were green doors upon our arrival and we were pleasantly surprised that they were in good condition.
Exch 30 was a good example of the locality of the congestion - at 1:30 pm when we in Van 2 arrived the congestion was almost 30 minutes and started 0.8 miles before the exchange. By the time we got through it and then our runner started at 2:30 - it was completely a drive-all-the-way-to-it and van 1 had no idea what were talking about traffic. It was completely dissapated at that time.
We don't like finishing so late in the day (after 5 pm) but it sure makes for a more enjoyable day-of-race. You have to do this event a few different start times to see more more sides of this event. I would like to volunteer some year just to see how it changes at one point in space.

Even though I tried staying off the computer, I still had to check my mail, bank, Ebay, and the online CD shops.
CD Baby was my first stop last Thursday. I picked up the Big Cock album, JRK – Freedom Road (bluesy Hard Rock), and 5 Hard Rock CDs in the "$5 Special" area.
Totals – 7 CDs for $45
Ebay was next. I was watching an auction for Hurricane – Slave To The Thrill (censored cover), BUY IT NOW for $23 + $3 shipping. Not bad, scooped that up right away!
Total – 1 CD for $26
Last stop was Retrospect Records for some serious reissues. If you got to the Heavy Harmonies Forums there is some serious discussion about this label both good and bad. Trying to keep an open mind (and wanting some good music!), I ordered some CDs. $60 got me Defcon – Defcon, Manilla Thrills – Tomorrow's Waiting, Mariah – Mariah, and Mariah – Somewhere Between Heaven & Earth. Some of these albums never saw the light of day way back when and this is the first time the material has been officially released. Retrospect has some great rare titles and reissues, pricing varies. Like I mentioned, a lot of debate on the Retrospect business practices and manufacturing over at HH Forums. I say check out the Retrospect website, read the discussion forums, and form your own opinion. I took a chance on 5 CDs so far (this order + the Friction CD a few weeks ago) and I haven't been disappointed. I have some comments on the artwork and green-tinted discs but I can look past that for a reissue of a CD that goes for $300+ on Ebay (the Friction CD).
Total – 4 CDs for $60
Final week totals – 12 CDs for $131…..not bad…..

Octowarrior under construction..
I'm working on this creature for some time now. But it's like i'm getting blind on some spots in this piece. I don't feel it's that strong i think i should.
Maybe the light source or something, or to much deep black spots, maybe to many weird details?

Fascinating work.
These are remarkably detailed, and very interesting to look at, but the overall values of this piece are too light. You have deep shadow values, and bright highlights, but the middle tones seem somewhat lacking (this could be your scanner if it is traditional, or your monitor, if it is digital. Is the purplish cast the color you painted them in?
Here is the piece in the original colors you uploaded, but with the brightness decreased a bit, and the contrast upped about 10-15%. The details start to become much more noticible (as well as other artifacts, such as the shady area surrounding the figure on the right, and the rounded shadow beneath the full figure).
I think you will need to enhance your middle values more, and possibly deepen your shadows again to try to bring these details out.
Hope this helps!

Ty for the reply.
I think ur right, there's too much contrast, less middle tones. After i scan i change the values a bit. But it's so dificult to get it as the way i draw it (like the real piece).
This is a traditional piece, and it's with normal pencil (no color or something).
Is there a way (in photoshop or something) to tweak the levels on an easier way, to get close to the real drawing quality. I always use Levels or Curves.
But it's almost like some parts get better, and other (like middle tones get more worse).

In photoshop CS there is an option called shadow/highlight (image->adjustments-> shadow/highlight) that might be helpful, if you have cs
If not its levels and curves or simply brightness/contrast.
I know a few people prefer to do it with multiple layers and playing with the blends of the layers such as duplicating it putting it at 75 alpha and multiply as the blend option.
August 1st, 2005 #5
Ah great man! I have CS 2 now, but did'nt know about that shadow/highlight!
It's more secure/ precise for things like this. I also know now what i did wrong.
I tried to remove the shady area surrounding the creature. But that's also removing the middletones of the creature itself
I allready work with extra paper for under my hand (to lean) But even then (or with sketching the first lines) i fade some pensil out.
And that's not what i want to show after scanning and posting. Just the creature and clean white around him!
Ty for the rep.

1) The game is certainly better in some areas. For PvE, the LFG tool combined with server merges and F2P are some great additions for the PvE crowd who like to do operations and flashpoints. In general, PvE also got a few more operations to do. So, the PvE front seems to be better by a reasonable amount but nothing super drastic. For PvP, the downside is that Ilum PvP was removed and there is no indication that it is going to be fixed anytime soon. Also on the downside is class balance, which remains a problem and Bioware's responses don't indicate they think it's an issue. The upside is that there are 2 new warzones to fight and ranked PvP, but you better be one of the "preferred overpowered classes" to play.
2) Cash shop is mostly vanity, some xp boosts but if you're level 50 it's vanity.
3) Runs slightly better in my opinion, but not by much. You might not notice it as much since large-scale PvP isn't possible anymore with the removal of Ilum as a PvP destination. If you keep the game small-scale, it runs okay.
4) PvP is currently unbalanced, and it is easier to stun folks although the range of stuns was reduced as an offset. My tank is unkillable. Some DPS classes way outdamage other DPS classes. Operative/scoundrel healers are way better at healing than other healers....etc. So, if you have the "preferred" class for the specific roll, you think it's all okay. If you happen to play a specific roll with a non-preferred class, you'll be very frustrated. However, Bioware remains ignorant of the differences as they looked at kill/death reported ratios at the end of warzones to determine balance. As you know, if you do 1 point of damage to someone that eventually dies, you get a kill credit. Thus, if you do 25% of the damage and the other DPS player can do 75% of the damage, you both get credit and are equal in Bioware's view, but ranked PvP players only want the class that does the 75% of the damage, not the one that does 25% of the damage. And for defensive tanks, I'm still pretty much unkillable with an oprative healer (and with my guard, the operative healer is pretty much unkillable).
In conclusion, if you just want to PvE, this game is okay. If you want warzone PvP, you better have the right class and not care so much about class balance. If you want large-scale PvP, this game isn't for you. If you only want to experience some of the class stories, best bet is to just go F2P and make a new account since your old account might not have enough character spaces to do the new stories.
Hope this unbiased post helps.

Cheaper fuel bills – thanks to mines
Last updated at 14:16, Thursday, 10 April 2014
CHEAPER fuel for Whitehaven residents could be an "unexpected legacy'' of the town's redundant pits.
A potential scheme to extract heat from water and gas in disused mines in Kells has moved closer after a £123,470 funding award.
The money, from the Department of Energy and Climate Change to Copeland Council, will be used to look into developing "innovative heat networks''. It follows a bid from economic development organisation, Britain's Energy Coast (BEC).
Coun George Clements, Copeland Council's portfolio holder for community planning, said: "This is a great example of partnership working with Britain's Energy Coast to secure Government funding.
"It will explore projects which could help households in parts of the borough where we know the cost of energy is a huge problem.
"The energy networks to be studied include looking at taking heat from old mine workings – so today's residents would be benefiting from the labours of those who spent their working lives in Whitehaven's pits. We are looking forward to the research beginning and seeing the findings."
The grant will explore the potential to extract heat from water and gas in disused mines in the Kells area. The projects stem from the West Cumbria Energy Compass, a report commissioned by BEC to explore the potential for viable energy systems for West Cumbria, based on internationally proven technologies and the use of locally available resources.
Lee Carr, low carbon energy development manager at BEC, said: "This funding award is a major step in bringing innovative heat networks to West Cumbria and the potential for cheaper, low carbon and locally-produced energy for hundreds – if not thousands – of homeowners and businesses.
"It marks the culmination of a lot of hard work stemming from the publication of BEC's Energy Compass strategy through to the writing of this successful bid."
Last year, Mr Carr told delegates at the Energy Business Opportunities Conference in Lillyhall that water flooded into disused mines could be used to supply geothermal energy and this was an idea being explored as a way of tapping into an unexpected legacy of Cumbria's mining heritage.
A similar scheme being developed in Glasgow could provide 40 per cent of that city's heat, scientists believe.
Mr Carr said: "We also have a lot of redundant mines too, so we see this as having potential for West Cumbria.
"You would look for disused mines in areas with a population nearby because if it was in the middle of nowhere you would waste a lot of energy getting the heat to where it is needed."
He added if the idea was taken up by communities they could take ownership of the scheme to ensure they had access to cheaper energy.

Have your say
Didn't they say the same thing when Calder Hall was opened.
I can't see anything positive coming from this. There will be health & safety issues about it's investigation, it will cost too much to put in place and it will be too disruptive to the local environment to be welcome or encouraged. Sounds a good idea IN THEORY though.

County abates taxes on home lost to fire
The Morgan County Council granted a tax abatement to Loydene Berg, who recently lost her home in a tragic fire.
The council unanimously voted to forgive Berg of the obligation to pay $1,595 in property taxes to the county for 2012.
"We express our condolences," Councilman Robert Kilmer said. "It is horrible for anyone to go through."
The amount included the valuation of both property and a home. The home was completely lost to the Sept. 4 fire. The property, which is commercial, will likely be reassessed in January 2013 to adjust for loss of a residential structure.
Councilwoman Tina Kelley said she supported the abatement, adding, "This is the community I live in."
Berg expressed her appreciation.
"This is a lovely community," she said. "My intent is to stay and figure things out."
County pledges monetary support of the American Lands Council
The Morgan County Council voted to spend $5,000 to join the Amcerican Land Council's fight against the federal government. The money will come from the general fund and provide the county with a one-year membership.
"We want to participate in the effort to educate the public on the efforts they are making to acknowledge the constitutional rights of the state," Council Chairwoman Tina Kelley said.
"We need to stand up and be heard," Councilman Robert Kilmer said. "Too many don't think we can fight the federal government. I think they ought to know they can't get away with this.
"It is a worthwhile investment," Councilman Ned Mecham said. "It is worth the fight."
The American Lands Council was recently formed to address land issues, including federal intrustion on private property.

Pack Falls Short in Offensive Shootout at Clemson
Nov. 17, 2012
Box Score | Postgame Notes | Photo Gallery
CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) - Senior Tobais Palmer set an ACC and NC State record with 496 all-purpose yards breaking T.J. Graham's record of 336 last season at Cincinnati, but No. 11 Clemson picked up a 62-48 win over North Carolina State on Saturday.
The Tigers (10-1, 7-1 Atlantic Coast) gained 754 yards, while both teams combined for 1,351 yards and the 110 combined points were just seven off the ACC record set by Georgia Tech and North Carolina last week.
The Wolfpack (6-5, 3-4) led 24-13 early in the second quarter before Clemson scored 42 straight points. Boyd was responsible for every Clemson touchdown. The junior was 30-for-44 for 426 yards and ran for 105 yards - the combined 531 yards set another school record.
Palmer had 277 yards on kickoff returns and caught seven passes for 219 yards and three touchdowns. Mike Glennon was 29-of-53 for 493 yards and five touchdowns. Four of NC State's touchdown drives took just one play..
Mario Carter caught seven passes for 105 yards and a score, while Shadrach Thornton ran 21 times for 114 yards and a touchdown for the Wolfpack.
The first half seemed like a whole game, with two huge momentum swings, 65 total points and 805 total yards.
Clemson took a 13-0 lead scoring on its first three possessions, but Glennon threw a 77-yard touchdown pass to Tobias Palmer, then followed it with a 49-yard scoring pass to Palmer on the next offensive play. The Wolfpack scored on their next two drives and led 24-13 early in the second quarter.

NFL 2013 Off-Season Discussion

Two quarterbacks who could potentially at least compete for a starting job somewhere, if their current teams either trade or release them, are Alex Smith and Matt Flynn. Both SF and Seattle respectively sound willing to trade if they get the right offer. Or possibly even cut Smith or Flynn if they can't get anything for them, simply because it doesn't make much financial sense to be paying someone starting QB money if they're firmly entrenched in the backup role. It seems like most of their potential trade partners are playing hard to get though, acting as if they're not that interested, in the hopes that the players will just be cut, and they can sign them without giving up any draft picks.
San Francisco isn't getting any traction on trading Smith because everyone with a functional brain knows that it's incredibly unlikely that they're going to pay his $1 million roster bonus in March, and that there's no way in hell he's going to be on the roster come April 1, when his 2013 salary becomes guaranteed.
I don't think Flynn's going anywhere, yet. Russell Wilson had a spectacular rookie season, far better than anyone could have expected, but the Seahawks can't put all their chips on him, yet. There's no guarantee he won't have a brutal sophomore slump. After next season, if Wilson rocks the house again, then yeah, I can see Flynn on the trade market.

Katie Horton of Alexandria, Va., said she is struggling with a decision to sign a form that would relinquish her appeal to adopt a child, whom she intended to call Sara, in an orphanage in Russia's northern region. If she signs the paper, the 20-month-old girl has a better chance of being adopted than if she waits to see the outcome of Putin's decision. Older children are less likely to be adopted.
"I feel like if she's got any chance at all to get out of the orphanage, it's the right thing to do," Horton said. "If Putin signs [the legislation], I don't know that there is hope left."

City beat Argyle after penalties
Posted: December 06, 2012|
EXETER City manager Steve Tully was too nervous to watch as wife Tamsin slotted the crucial penalty in their 5-4 shootout win over Plymouth Argyle in the League Cup.
The two sides were locked at 1-1 after 90 minutes from goals by Leah Brooks and Emily Mosely.
Penalties were required after extra time, with Tamsin's effort crashing in off the underside of the bar via the keeper's gloves.
"In tough conditions the girls held their nerve and coolly stepped up to take their penalties when needed," said manager Steve.
After drawing 3-3 against City in the league the week before, it was Argyle who broke the deadlock after 20 minutes through Mosely. Momentum changed in the second half, and Lola Garcia-Sanchez's fine run set up Brooks to equalise.
Burwood, Kirsty Caunter, Marika Ghiglia and Carla Staddon sent the shootout into sudden death at 4-4, and Tamsin netted her kick before Argyle missed to give City the win.
Exeter City will be in FA Cup action when they take on Brislington at St James's Park.
Kick-off for the match is at 1pm.
Heavitree SC are through to the next round of the Devon Supplementary Cup after a 4-1 win against LFC Sparta.
Kirsty Brown scored twice, with Abbie Harris and Kay Gibbons also on target.
Feniton drubbed Plainmoor 9-1 while Seaton Town went down to Activate 5-1. Lara Spiers netted the consolation goal.
The University of Exeter were unable to raise a side for their match against the University of Plymouth, while Exmouth Amateurs received a walkover.

A hypothesis on the deeper psychology of rail
I've been doing a little speculative thinking on the deeper motivations behind rail.

Why are so many people so passionate in their support […] [Read More]

Jobs in the core: Houston vs. other cities
The Main, University and Uptown light rail lines (assuming they actually get built) got me thinking about Houston's core job centers: downtown, the Texas Medical Center (TMC), Greenway Plaza, and Uptown/Galleria – which will all be pretty well connected by the new network.

Aaron Renn (The Urbanophile) has a fascinating piece over at New Geography titled "Civic Choices: The Quality vs. Quantity Dilemma".

LACK of confidence in their abilities is stopping many 16-year-olds taking science A levels, according to a report published this week. Alan Smithers, professor of education at the University of Manchester and coauthor of the report, says that the way GCSEs are awarded at present does not tell teenagers which sciences they are good at.
The report, The Impact of Double Science, was commissioned by the Engineering Council to examine why the proportion of teenagers taking science A levels is falling at a time when record numbers are taking science GCSEs.
Since 1988, when the National Curriculum was introduced in state schools in England and Wales, science has been compulsory for pupils between 5 and 16. Ninety per cent of pupils in England and Wales take double-award science, a course that covers chemistry, physics and biology and leads to two GCSEs.
The report argues that squeezing three sciences into two ...

What: Downtown Fort Walton Beach Farmers Market
Where: 201 S.E. Miracle Strip Parkway on grassy area behind Burrito Del Sol
When: 8 a.m.-noon second Saturday of the month, May-October; remaining dates are July 12, Aug. 9, Sept. 13 and Oct. 11
Website: www.downtownfwb.com
FORT WALTON BEACH — You might have missed your chance to purchase some of Rick Pinch's hydroponically-grown lettuce.
"June is about the end of the season for it. This might be the last of if," he says, gesturing to the fluffy leaves of pale green on his table.
Don't worry. There are plenty of other garden goodies to tempt you.
Pinch was among the 20 or so vendors at the June 14 Downtown Fort Walton Beach Farmers Market. He has a farm in Crestview and brought produce from there as well as from the Crestview Community Garden.
"Proceeds from that produce go back to the community garden," he says. "That spaghetti squash was picked yesterday. There's no insecticide used on any of it."
Brenda Hammac of Laurel Hill with Lundy & Sons was still putting labels on jars of honey a few minutes before the market was scheduled to open. There were also rows of blackberry jelly and other preserved delights
"We have honey and eggs and blueberries and goat's milk," she says, offering a bowl of blueberries to me to sample one. "We even have combed honey. Do you know what that is?"
It's honey harvested still inside the comb and put in a jar with honey freed from the comb. It's an attractive display glistening in the morning sun.
"Some people like to chew the comb like bubble gum," she says.
Jennifer Bundrick of the Downtown Fort Walton Beach Organization says they are trying to keep the market relatively small.
"We like to focus on having a lot of food items and especially different kinds of produce," she says. Potential vendors tend to find out about the market through word of mouth, she added.
Griffith Family Farms of Baker attracted a lot of customers with their booth brimming with colorful produce from tiers of blueberry baskets to three kinds of eggplant.
"My brother, Malcolm, is usually here," says Lauren Griffith. "We grow most of this at our house. We also have chickens and goats and ducks.
"People specially request our duck eggs. They like to use them for cakes because they are big and have a bigger white so it makes the cake fluffier."
Griffith was accompanied by her mother and her little brother, who manned a lemonade stand nearby.
Pam and Richard Ullrich walked over to the market from their home on Brooks Street and waited while Griffith bagged their purchases.
"It's great," Pam says. "We come every time it's open, looking for fresh produce."
Yellow Ribbon Bakery was also doing a brisk business that morning with customers lining up to buy fresh baked bread and other treats.
"We grow a lot of our own stuff and what we don't, we get from other vendors," says Nora Bosnake about the wholesale bakery based on Greenacres Road in Fort Walton Beach. "We try to keep it as local as possible."
One of the more surprising vendors was Nature's Hand Cattle Company out of Westville. Hand is the family name, and they've been in the beef business for five generations.
Carolyn Hand and her mother, Jeanne, brought a freezer full of natural grass- and spring water-fed beef with them to the market.
Carolyn said they started doing farmers markets about a year ago initially trying to sell "wholes, halves and quarters" of beef as they had to larger buyers.
"Until this sweet little old lady came up to me at one market and said, 'Honey, I just want to buy a pound of ground beef.' So, we had to rethink our strategy then," she says with a laugh.
Hand said their beef is USDA inspected and they are licensed and insured.
"We call ourselves a meat market on wheels," she says. "We were selling mostly in the Panama City area, but Fort Walton Beach seems really receptive.
"We're interested in finding people who want their food to go from the farm to the table."
