No Place For Exploitative Entertainment
Circus Mondao, one of the few animal circuses left in the UK, was in Aberystwyth recently, where we were treated to the view of camels shivering in the pouring rain. The circus tried to deflect attention from their practices, and unfortunately the Cambrian News quoted them without bothering to check facts: for example, the Circus Licensing Panel of DEFRA (hardly known for showing much care for animals) had a number of concerns about Circus Mondao as recently as March 2016. The DEFRA report says there are "concerns about insufficient outdoor exercise space", "concerns about the amount of exercise being provided" and concerns about poor record keeping in relation to exercise records and veterinary visits for their zebra, two camels and two reindeer.
In 2012 the UK Government said that it would implement a ban on wild animals in circuses, but thanks to persistent blocking by three Conservative MPs this ban hasn't been put in place yet; even if they do go ahead with it we may well need a separate bill for Wales as animal welfare is a devolved issue. There are currently only two UK circuses with wild animals, Peter Jolly's Circus and Circus Mondao.
The Welsh Government really should implement a ban on wild animals in circuses in Wales. Many local authority councils (including Ceredigion, I think) already ban wild animal circuses on public land, but it still means such circuses can operate in Wales on private land, as has happened here with Mondao. The majority of the population want to see a total ban, and this is backed by commitments in political manifestos by the Conservatives, Labour, Liberal Democrats, the Green Party and Plaid Cymru. The British Veterinary Association and the RSPCA back a ban on wild animals in circuses. More general animal circus information can be found on the ADI site or this site.
Circuses can never simulate the natural habitat of a wild animal. There are no educational or conservation reasons for animal circuses. They are only aimed at profit and entertainment, neither of which are justifiable. Other countries across Europe and the world have banned the use of wild animals in circuses. Instead of exploiting animals, we should encourage and support human circuses such as the amazing Welsh circus No Fit State.

EU Referendum - What Next?
In the EU referendum the other day, Ceredigion was one of the few Welsh counties that had a majority who voted to remain within the EU. Sadly not enough to swing the overall vote, but it was a strong statement.
Still, the UK ref results were so close it is surprising that the Government seems to be contemplating acting on it. The referendum was not legally binding and nor was it decisive – 51.9% vs 48.1% would not be enough of a majority to convict in a court of law, so it shouldn't be enough to enact such a huge change; and because a third of people did not vote, that 2% difference is far less than 2% of the UK population. Many people are now stating that they would change their vote if they had the chance again, especially those who wanted to make a point but didn't expect it to actually lead to such a huge change. There certainly isn't a clear lead one way or the other, which is why it's surprising that many people are acting as if leaving the EU as a result is a foregone conclusion. It isn't. An ideal way forward would be to try and fix some EU issues that people have problems with (e.g. the EU's secret and undemocratic TTIP negotiations; concerns such as the huge subsidies to animal agriculture when there are more important roles that are not subsidised, and so on). Then the UK could hold another referendum in a year or so, hopefully with a clearer majority one way or the other. That would be better than rash decisions based on an incredibly marginal voting difference. Many people were annoyed at only having the choice of leaving or staying – many want to stay, but also to see some reform, and that was not a choice the UK citizens were given. It should have been.
Well over a million people have already signed this petition requesting a second referendum. There is plenty of room for adopting this approach – some of the options are covered here. Let's hope politicians support this more reasonable reaction to the results of the EU referendum vote, which were indicative and something to be learned from, but certainly not convincing enough to drive a radical and potentially regrettable action such as leaving the EU as a result of it.

Passing The Buck
We've been forwarded details of another example of environmental ineptitude (or neglect) from Ceredigion County Council and the Welsh Government. We've been given permission to reproduce the details here. It's certainly a typical case.
A number of people had reported shopping trolleys dumped in the river at Aberystwyth. Ceredigion County Council are responsible for dealing with flytipping and litter in Ceredigion (a job they fail at miserably). The trolleys were in shallow water by the edge - a Council worker could have safely waded in and removed them easily at that point.
A number of reports of shopping trolleys in the river
at Aberystwyth - why wasn't the Council doing anything?
From FixMyStreet.
From FixMyStreet.
When the trolleys were found to be still in the water it was followed up with Ceredigion County Council, who responded by saying they weren't responsible for it, and to try contacting Natural Resources Wales. They didn't even forward the details on, just washed their hands of the issue.
Natural Resources Wales are part of the Welsh Government. When they were contacted they responded by saying it was nothing to do with them ... end of story, from their point of view.
And while all this responsibility-denying was going back and forth some of the trolleys have washed into the sea, adding to marine pollution. This is ridiculous. Can you imagine if all public services took this approach?
Phone answered. "Hi, this is the police, what can we do?"At that point the person didn't give up, and instead wrote a letter to both bodies, which we think is a really good example, and includes some stuff about law we didn't know (and will no doubt use ourselves in future). We'll paste the whole thing in.
"Someone's being threatened in the shopping centre."
"Mmm. Not really our jurisdiction. See the site security."
Person finds site security. Situation explained to them.
"Sorry. We don't deal with that, it's a police matter."
Rings the police again, complains. Police and site security both say "We take your complaints seriously and will get back to you within 14 working days with a response."
Silence follows.
The threat escalates into a mugging.
Dear Ceredigion County Council and Natural Resources Wales,The downside is that we checked with the letter-writer - and they still haven't had a reply other than an acknowledgement. They contacted Ceredigion County Council and Natural Resources Wales on 23rd May. It's now 8th June, 16 days later.
I am copying this to both of you because it is a formal complaint to both bodies about the unhelpfulness of your replies. Trolleys and other items dumped into rivers are an environmental problem, a wildlife issue, a litter problem, and a possible safety issue (kayakers, swimmers, paddlers). As such their removal should be covered by one or both of your organisations. Instead, as the email chain below shows, Ceredigion County Council denied that it is anything to do with them, and said to go elsewhere (not even having the courtesy to forward an email on to the body that is supposedly responsible); then Natural Resources Wales replied and said it is not their problem either. Something is very wrong here. It is obviously someone's responsibility; yet both likely bodies are refusing to take any responsibility. Beyond the general poor service this displays, I believe both bodies are thereby in breach of the Well-being of Future Generations Act (WBFG Act).
I think it would be beneficial to reflect on the situation of multiple metal trolleys in rivers. It may seem like a trivial matter, one that can be passed from organisation to organisation, but, ultimately, people are compromising the future well-being of the planet for future generations, through an inability, or unwillingness to work together or to fix things that improve the environment.
The Well-being of Future Generations Act (WBFG Act) places a statutory duty on specific public bodies (including Ceredigion County Council and Natural Resources Wales) to think more about the long term, to work better with people and communities and each other, and to look to prevent problems and take a more joined-up approach. These are covered by the five ways of working, particularly prevention and collaboration.
I think every one of these has been highlighted as not working in this case of the trolleys in the river.
• CCC and NRW are not thinking about the long term – if you do not remove the trolleys and other litter they will either be washed down into the sea and then washed up on the beach, or they will get lodged on the riverbank and rust and pollute the land and river/marine environment. Either way, they will remain an unnatural part of the environment for decades.
• CCC and NRW are not working well with people and each other. Looking at Fix My Street shows that other people reported this and many issues like it – presumably they were met with the same brush-off. But local people actually care about their local environment and communities, and you are not working well with them.
• CCC and NRW are not working well to prevent problems. If the trolleys were removed now, they would not create future pollution and environmental problems.
• CCC and NRW have not provided a joined up approach. CCC's reply could have been forwarded to NRW, rather than expecting the member of public to complete another piece of correspondence.
The WBFG Act means public bodies such as CCC and NRW have to take into account the impact they could have on people living their lives in Wales in the future. They must work to improve the economic, social, environmental and cultural well-being of Wales. By failing address a reported issue, they are failing to improve the social and environmental wellbeing of Wales.
In addition, there are two of the seven key goals of the WBFG Act that are relevant. These are:
• "A resilient Wales - A nation which maintains and enhances a biodiverse natural environment with healthy functioning ecosystems that support social, economic and ecological resilience and the capacity to adapt to change (for example climate change)."
• "A globally responsible Wales - A nation which, when doing anything to improve the economic, social, environmental and cultural well-being of Wales, takes account of whether doing such a thing may make a positive contribution to global well-being."
I therefore suggest that you reflect on your statutory duty of the WBFG Act, that you work together to remove litter from rivers when it is reported to you, and that you work towards improving the environment for everyone. It should be made clear to the public that this is a responsibility you share under the act.
There is a certain irony too that Ceredigion County Council go to any lengths – including using public money to evict a pensioner from her home http://money.aol.co.uk/2015/02/12/grandmother-loses-fight-to-save-her-house-from-tesco-development/ - in order to encourage yet more supermarkets to Aberystwyth. Then the Council refuses to deal with the inevitable problems such as supermarket trolleys being dumped in waterways.
Please inform me when the trolleys have been removed – ideally before they wash away. I shall be following this up. I shall also send this correspondence to the WBFG Commissioner and to the Welsh Government.
Of course, both bodies will say they are acting according to guideline. In their emails they said "Please be assured that your complaint is being taken seriously" and "Your comments are being considered and a detailed reply will be sent to you no later than 27 June 2016" - ah. So they will deliberate on it for over a month, while the time-related issue being reported is ignored. As we pointed out, some of the trolleys have washed down the river in the last rain, adding to marine pollution for generations to come while Ceredigion County Council and Natural Resources Wales deny responsibility and bury their heads in the sand. Totally useless. Maybe they wonder why they are so frequently despised?
Updated 14th June 2016: We've seen the replies from Ceredigion County Council and Natural Resources Wales. Both basically refused to accept responsibility for their appalling actions concerning this problem, and neither of them agreed to alter their policies or behaviour when this situation occurs again. And by then the trolleys had washed into the sea. Useless.
"Please be assured that National Resources Wales (NRW) and Ceredigion County Council (CCC), as well as other stakeholders, are in ongoing contact with regards issues in which they have a mutual interest."
No evidence of that so far - hence the complaint.
"I would like to thank you for your interest in this matter."
Shame the organisations themselves had no interest. Also, the Welsh Government didn't respond at all.

Renewable Energies Meet Demand
Can renewable energies keep us going? Hell yes! Look at the news from this week:
Germany raises renewable bar again: clean energy meets nearly 100% of demand
Portugal runs for four days straight on renewable energy alone
That is in addition to news from Denmark, Costa Rica, Norway, Iceland and Tokelau.
If we also cut our energy usage (we waste so much) then this is a totally viable future. Good news for once!

Items That Last Longer Than A Fortnight
So much gets wasted nowadays. My kettle broke recently. It had been made so it wasn't repairable. Planned obsolescence and throwaway culture joining forces. If Governments said things had to last for 5-10 years I bet we'd suddenly see the quality improve once companies couldn't get away with shoddy items with inherent weak points.
It's interesting to see some companies trying to fight back against this, such as the BuyMeOnce site. Pay more for something, but then have it for life, not just for Christmas. Have an item you care for, repair if necessary, rather than throw away. Until environmental cost is built in to financial cost, it's up to the consumer to be responsible. It's not like we can rely on politicians to do that for us.

Voting Time Approaches
There's a week to go until the National Assembly for Wales elections. Remember you get two votes - your local constituency area (a named person/party) and your larger region (a vote for a party).
It's worth checking whether your inbuilt preference matches current policies by taking a quiz. There's a specific Wales one which I prefer (BBC mention), and a more detailed one which goes beyond yes/no answers. The latter survey gives your results on a map to show you where similar like-minded people live.

Ceredigion County Council Wasting Money And Pulling Out Hedges
[A guest post sent to CIN]
The bottom of my garden was a nice, shady, private area. I'd had a new fence fitted and had been planting new bushes, trees and flowers in that area. My neighbours had trees and bushes too. It acted as a good boundary between our land and that of the Council's: green, and it assured security and privacy on both sides.
The Council obviously has far too much money, because last week their workmen ripped out the existing fences, trees and hedges, to replace them with an ugly high wire mesh.
I am extremely annoyed at this waste and damage – basically a form of vandalism, to my mind.

Prime Minister John Key says whether companies pay above the minimum wage is "a matter for them" with the Government unlikely to endorse a living wage campaign.
Later this week the Kiwi Living Wage campaign will be launched, which is expected to push for a minimum wage of at least $18 an hour, well above the current $13.50 rate.
But Key said this was not on the agenda of the Government.
"What companies or council organisations choose to do in terms of paying their staff is a matter for them. The only area where the government plays a role is in setting the minimum wage. If you ask me whether we intend to raise the minimum way to 18 dollars an hour, the answer is no, not in the next 12 months," he said.
"There's always got to be a balance there between, obviously, people needing to pay their bills and meeting their liabilities, but the counter of that of course is, making sure they remain employed or get employment. That's the balancing act we're constantly trying to manage."
Key said the labour market "hasn't been that strong" in recent months.
Last week official figures showed that while unemployment fell by 0.4 per cent to 6.9 per cent, there was a sharp drop in the participation rate in the labour market, suggesting some workers may be dropping out by focusing on full time study or retiring earlier than they might have otherwise.
Mr Key said he encouraged companies to pay more where they could afford to, but the government was unlikely to endorse the living wage campaign.
"In the end, companies, if they can pay more, obviously you'd encourage them to pay more, but I'm not sure it's as simple as this is a magic number, I'll meet it."

For Karen Votour, groceries have become a daily consideration.
Struggle might be a better word.
At 74, the pensioner says she chases bargains all over Hamilton, pouncing on deals as they pop up.
"You pretty much have to go shopping every day."
Votour says between her and her husband, also 74, who's suffering from a chronic illness, they get by on about $24,000 a year.
After paying nearly $800 in rent, there's not much left for groceries, says Votour.
"It's ridiculous. We're finding it hard to make ends meet each month."
She's not alone in her frustration. Food prices are soaring across the country.
The average Canadian household is expected to spend $345 more on food this year, a University of Guelph report predicts.
"Historically, it is a considerable jump," says Sylvain Charlebois, the economic brief's lead author.
One of the biggest culprits is the low Canadian dollar.
That's because vegetables, fruits and nuts are particularly susceptible to currency changes; 81 per cent consumed in Canada are imported, the report notes.
Food banks are also bracing for the pinch.
The spike is a "triple threat," says Joanne Santucci, executive director of Hamilton Food Share. People struggle more to get by; food banks get less bang for their buck and donors give less.
Hamilton food banks are looking at new ways to meet demand with traditional donor reservoirs drying up over the past 10 years, Santucci says.
Rather than donate, people are opting to volunteer their time instead. That has its advantages, but the trend still leaves a widening gap to fill.
A Hamilton Food Share Hunger Count showed its partner agencies helped more than 20,000 people in March 2015, up 18.5 per cent from the year before.
That mirrors the University of Guelph Food Institute study, which notes the average Canadian household paid about $325 more for food in 2015 than the year before.
When grocery bills rise, it strains households already facing steepening rent and utility bills.
"It's like a domino," Santucci said.
It's too early to tell whether rising food prices are having a nationwide effect on donations, says Marzena Gersho, communications director for Food Banks Canada.
"We're kind of in the perfect storm."
Consumers are feeling pinched by rising prices but food banks are also in the donation "doldrums" following the winter holiday giving season, she noted.
In March, Food Banks Canada plans to gather data from 3,000 agencies for its Hunger Count report, which gives a picture of use and donations.
With climate change's unpredictable weather patterns — both drought and moisture — food prices are subject to hourly volatility.
And with the low dollar, there are fewer bargains for grocers at the "farm gate," Charlebois said.
"And that's why you're seeing more and more of what we call 'strategic compassion.'"
That includes greeters at grocery stores advising patrons on deals in "real time."
Many economic variables are out of the grocers' reach, but "what they can control is their brand image," said Charlebois, a professor of food distribution and policy.
He expects produce prices to stabilize once the domestic harvest hits the market.
In the meantime, sticker-shocked consumers will start to pay more attention to what's in season, he figures.
"If you're a little bit careful and diligent, you can actually save some money every day."

In today's modern poly-device lifestyle, consumers shift seamlessly across phones, computers, televisions and tablets, devouring rich media content wherever they are. This hyper-connected culture has spawned a new breed of consumer who expects high-quality entertainment on-demand – and at lightning-fast speed.
Despite consumers' voracious appetites for such content, the ability to capture video with state-of-the-art equipment in increasingly higher-resolution formats has far surpassed the technical infrastructure in distribution.
For example, the increased resolution made possible by HD (high-definition) video and the developing UltraHD (4K) resolution standard means higher bitrates, creating a massive burden on both fixed and mobile networks. A technically efficient and low-cost solution for disseminating the massive amount of data required for high-quality video has yet to be adopted.
So How Can We Fix This?
An obvious solution is limiting the video bitrate, but doing so in "brute force" causes noticeable degradation in image quality — an unacceptable trade-off for consumers and content providers alike.
The ability to provide high-quality video quickly comes down to bandwidth for content providers. If videos were a liquid, bandwidth would refer to the size of the pipe. If too much liquid tries to enter the pipe, it will travel at slower pace, impeding video delivery. Wedge even larger high quality video files into the pipe and it's only a matter of time before it clogs completely.
A Change in Culture
In just the past few years, we have witnessed a fundamental shift away from video content delivery over traditional broadcast networks (over-the-air, cable and satellite) to virtually spot-delivery via over-the-top (OTT) Internet delivery. Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Instant video and iTunes have emerged as household names, seizing market share in their quest to satiate consumers' intensifying appetites for content choice, flexibility and value.
Mobile video delivery has also grown at a dizzying pace as YouTube, Vimeo and Hulu continue to proliferate mobile OTT services, along with robust "TV Everywhere" offerings launched by the majority of cable and satellite networks.
The mainstreaming of these popular services, along with revolutionary mobile technologies that make viewing videos as simple as switching on an iPhone, now mean Americans are spending more online time than ever consuming video content.
Cisco's Visual Networking Index estimates that video delivery monopolizes more than 50 percent of Internet bandwidth today, instigating the main source of Internet bottlenecks and ultimately, the primary cause of consumer frustration over poor performance. Mobile video streaming is swelling so rapidly that it will account for the majority of the 65 times increase in wireless data traffic estimated by Cisco in 2014. If Cisco's forecast is upheld, the influx of video traffic may grind mobile networks to a halt as 3G and 4G wireless fail to support the increased demand.
The combination of the demand for both fixed and mobile video delivery, which is growing exponentially, along with the increasing resolution and quality of video capture and display devices, means it's only a matter of time before bandwidth demand exceeds capacity.
But… Are There Ways to Improve Things?
The recently proposed HEVC (H.265) video compression standard promises up to 50 percent bitrate reduction compared to the existing H.264 standard, but it will take at least five to seven years for mass-market penetration.
Regardless of future standards, what's indisputable is that compression of higher-quality video content is mission critical. A video optimization solution is needed now, but only if it possesses the capability to lower video stream bitrates without the loss of quality.
Investigations by academia and industry have resulted in limited, and thus far, incremental improvements in compression – until recently. To improve the delivery system and user experience, our media optimization experts at Beamr have developed novel algorithms that could be integrated into either the content creation or delivery systems to optimize video streams and make videos more storage and distribution-friendly.
Beamr's Improvements to the System
Our patented optimization algorithm reduces the bitrate of H.264 video streams by up to 75 percent (4X), without affecting their perceptual quality. And because it works in the domain of standard H.264 video, the resulting video streams are fully compatible with any media player or consumer device.
Already proven in our popular JPEGmini photo recompression platform, the optimization algorithm imitates the perceptual qualities of the human eye, ensuring the video stream is compressed to the maximum extent possible by removing redundancies, without creating any visual artifacts in the process.
Regardless of how you prefer to devour your favorite videos across media platforms, new optimization tools based on proven scientific algorithms can streamline the delivery process, unclogging the bandwidth pipes to ensure that you can effortlessly hit "play" and watch high-quality video on-demand without interruption across multiple screens.

BP and Oil Spill Victims Both Want Settlement Overturned
There are 2 comments on the Wall St. Cheat Sheet story from Aug 31, 2013, titled BP and Oil Spill Victims Both Want Settlement Overturned. In it, Wall St. Cheat Sheet reports that:
For months, BP's objections to the settlement with oil spill victims a New Orleans district court judge approved last year has been met with staunch opposition from both the legal representation of those individuals and businesses harmed by the disaster and Judge Carl Barbier himself.
Join the discussion below, or Read more at Wall St. Cheat Sheet.

This oil spill disaster and the fallout goes to show the challenges engineers must meet while producing energy. Mistakes are often disastrous and the cost to the companies continue to grow several years after these disasters (By the end of June, the costs of compensation had hit $9.6 billion, and since then, they have continued to climb).
#2 Dec 5, 2013
If Bp is allowed to weasel out of there obligation it set presidence for other billion dollar companies to come to the United States and decimate our Eco systems, and our economy with no consequence or regards
to our way of life.
Everyone here on the Gulf Coast was and still is negatively affected from the Bp oil spill.
Bp needs to step up to the plate as a responsible company and take care of there responsibilities
to the people here on the Gulf Coast.

The Fortune Cookie Sums It Up
My girlfriend was just cleaning out her kitchen and I was eating all the old Chinese Fortune Cookies she found (she's a vegan and I'll eat most anything that doesn't have flavor). I came across one fortune cookie that read:
No profit grows where there is no pleasure to be had.
I think that this is at the very foundation of what Kinky Solutions is all about; pleasure leading to profit, leading to growth. I try to use fun to learn and to teach. That is what Skin Spider is all about really; a fun domain to teach ColdFusion application development. Hey come on, the fortune cookies never lie.

When i visited Manhattan i absolutely loved it and wanted to stay. Though i was staying in a very nice hotel right near Times Square so it might be different living there full time in a worse location. I found it quite similar to being in London due to how busy it was, the way people act, how expensive stuff is and how the city is quite historic etc.
I can see why people get annoyed with it though, if you spend enough time in a big city you end up taking it for granted and thinking it's a bit over rated.
But i'd much rather live in a happening city with many opportunities than living in a place where everything is always the same and you have no chance to make something of yourself.

Well when you consider NYC is the most visited city in the world, and the top tourist destination, and recognized for being the capital of the world then people realize that this thread is dumb. There is so much to do in NYC and everything is open 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. There aren't many other places that are even comparable.
