Tonight Jeremy Lin played his first game since Linsanity as a visitor to Madison Square Garden. During introductions, some Knicks fans applauded, but during the game, he was booed and heckled whenever he touched the ball. The Knicks had the choice to re-sign Lin — he would've had no choice to stay in New York if they'd matched his contract offer — but many fans seemed to be under the impression that he had insisted on leaving the team.
2. Tyson Chandler gave Lin a harsh welcome via this flagrant foul. Chandler goes up against a driving Lin and brings his elbows down on Lin's face.
3. Elbow. To. The. Face.
4. Not really any reason for Chandler to bring his arms down like that, which is why he gets the flagrant.
5. To his credit, Lin laughs it off.
6. Here's video of the play.
7. Chandler and Lin had good chemistry when they were teammates, shared a nice moment before the game, and didn't snipe at each other before or after the foul, so it doesn't seem likely that Chandler meant any ill will.
8. Hear the crowd booing Lin in this video. Later in the game, he badly airballed a three, and the fans went nuts.
Of course, Lin got the last laugh: he had a great game, notching 22 points and 8 assists in a 109-96 drubbing of the Knicks.
10. Part of his scoring came from his traditional strength, which is driving to the hoop: see here for a prime example.
11. All the bounces went the Rockets' way tonight — as in the case of this falling-out-of-bounds assist to Omer Asik.
Lin is 2-0 against New York this season.

DUBLIN, January 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
It has been suggested in recent studies that stress in the workplace is on the rise. This is reportedly largely down to the fact that people do not currently feel in a position of confidence with relation to their employment future. With job security down, it is harder for people to take sick days when they need them and harder for them to take a break when stressful situations arise.
Unfortunately, the natural result of this sort of situation in the workplace is increased levels of stress that eventually require longer periods of sickness to treat and correct. The CIPD (Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development) recently commissioned a study absence levels in the workplace, finding that average sick days for working people have fallen from 7.7 a year to 6.8 a year per employee.
However, the argument is not that people are healthier nowadays, but people are putting up with more in the name of job security - something that is liable to have a negative impact in the long run. Dr Jill Miller, lead member of the research team, was keen to point out that employers need to have a "proactive approach to supporting employee wellbeing" in order to avert further stress and anxiety problems among their workforces.
One of the ways employee wellbeing is supported in the office is through better office design - through more convenient and more comfortable surroundings that contribute to create a more attractive environment for people to work in.
Office suppliers Office Spot have seen an increase in inquiries from office managers and businesses keen to create a better environment for their members of staff by getting hold of the office furniture and the office essentials that make their lives easier.
Visitors to http://www.officespot.ie will find a range of high products at excellent prices that are all designed with the particular goal of making it easier for people to do their jobs. Many of the products satisfy aesthetic and ergonomic requirements as well as purely practical requirements - it's all about designing the kind of office where people feel comfortable and relaxed enough to be productive and avoid stress.
It is hoped that with the right support and guidance, organisations of all kinds will be able to turn things around so that stress and anxiety in the workplace does not become even more dangerous and even more widespread.

"Meryl's A Terrible Neighbor" Say The Whiners
Sour grapes make for flat champagne once again.
Bitter neighbors in Salisbury, Connecticut, are claiming that Meryl Streep is more "Nasty Lady" than "Iron Lady."
According to this write-up, "She lives on a very big multimillion dollar property in the area, but she doesn't give back."
Apparently the three-time Oscar winner doesn't stop and talk to total strangers. How awful!
Upcoming Events
And one time ages ago, "she wouldn't talk to the other moms" at the school where Meryl's daughter Grace went.
"Then when she did, she snapped at them."
Oh, please. Take this all with a grain of coke because, first of all, the neighbors aren't named, interestingly enough.
And secondly, WTF is the greatest actress of her generation supposed to do?
Prance through town and stop at each doorstep to say, "Hey! My name's Meryl. What's yours?" and strike up a conversation.
With everyone on the planet wanting a piece of her, is she supposed to skip gaily down the main street signing autographs, shaking hands, and begging people to come over for tea and crackers?
Every time someone drills into her with their burrowing eyes, should she say, "Howdy! Come over and stroke my Oscars"?
It is to laugh.
They should all just bow and scrape and keep moving.

India satisfied with the outcome of G20: Chidambaram.
Zee Media Bureau
New Delhi: Finance Minister P Chidambaram on Sunday said India was satisfied with the outcome of the G20 summit that was held in Sydney on February 22-23.
Chidambaram, who represented India along with RBI Governor, Raghuram Rajan, said the country's concern with regards to tapering, IMF quota reforms were addressed at the G20 communique and that it was satisfactory.
India's concerns with regard to tapering, IMF quota reforms were addressed in the G20 communique, the Finance Minister said.
The G20 Sydney Summit 2014 concluded Sunday with the finance ministers and central bankers of the countries adopted a soft target of raising the global GDP by 2 percent in the next five years.
On the other hand, the G20 countries also regretted that the IMF quota reforms were stalled as the United States was yet to ratify them.
The IMF quota reform seeks to increase the voting share of emerging economies including India. However, it hit a roadblock when the United States refused to increase it contribution.
"We deeply regret that the IMF quota and governance reforms agreed to in 2010 have not yet become effective and that the 15th General Review of quota was not completed by 2014," the communique said.
P Chidambaram said the communique fully reflected the concerns of the country.
"The communique has been drawn by the deputies sitting together and I think our concerns have been fully reflected in the communique," he said.

Some things never change, like the soothing rhythm of the ocean, day in and day out, as waves lap against the shores of Oahu. Every visit seems to pick up right where the last left off, as if the whole island had been put on pause in my absence. There's a timeless quality about the majestic rain forests; the towering mountains and their plunging craters; the flora and fauna buzzing, chirping, and making merry throughout it all. There's a certain comfort knowing that no matter how long it takes me to return, Hawaii will remain as enchanting a place as the day I first met it.
And yet, in my heart, I know that this is a consolatory lie. Imperceptibly, without conscious intention, everything changes. You can never truly go home again if you're expecting "home" to align with questionably maintained memories. However, in the case of Honolulu's evolving food scene, this is a very good thing indeed. One of the newest and most buzzed about establishments to take root in the past six months is Ai Love Nalo, an unassuming outpost on the far-flung coast of Waimanalo. Housed in a former gas station, it would be easy to drive right on by without a second thought, as nothing from the outside hints at the culinary treasures within.
Despite the fact that it's a considerably trek for city-dwellers, factoring either traffic or bus schedules into the equation, or both if you're particularly unlucky, it's a journey always worth taking. Hit Hanauma Bay along the way and make it a day trip; the only way to top those dazzling sights is to follow them with a stellar meal.
Boasting a menu composed of locally-sourced produce and entirely vegan options, you'll want to take a number of friends for the best experience. Heck, get out there and make some new friends! Join one of the long communal picnic tables out back and introduce yourself; there are no friendlier folks on earth than those living in paradise, as far as I've seen.
That said, if there was only one dish to order, it would have to be the Oh WOW Laulau. Wow, indeed! No where else on earth have I found vegan laulau, let alone such a stellar rendition. Traditionally consisting of fatty pork and/or fish steamed in taro leaves, this version eschews the meat in favor of hearty root vegetables, adding creamy coconut into the mix for richness. Not to be overlooked is the Tofu Poke provided on the side, claiming to be spicy but really bearing just enough warmth to taste perfectly balanced. This was easily my personal favorite from the small sampling of dishes provided, but it's a close call when all the options are so good.
Another front runner is the BBQ Portobello Sandwich. Mushrooms marinated in a bright, smoky barbecue sauce practically sing between two whole wheat buns. Coconut slaw tops off the assemblage with just the right amount of subtle sweetness to contrast the deeply savory flavors within.
Simpler but no less spectacular dishes include the Roasted Veg Platter and Roasted Veg Avocado Sandwich. The way that the vegetables are treated with respect, from the moment they're harvested from nearby farms to the care taken when they reach the kitchen is evident with every bite. Cooked with care and proffered generously with each serving, even the basics make the trek out here worthwhile. I'm still trying to recreate that impossibly umami gravy offered on the side. It's one of those things that are so astoundingly, inconceivably delicious, it's impossible to deconstruct.
Each entree promises an ideal amount of food; satisfying diners without over-stuffing them. That said, you'll still want to make room for dessert, especially when you see the towering bowls full of Outta This Swirled Soft Serve. Cool, naturally sweet spirals of banana-based soft serve are dressed to the nines with cacao sauce that hardens much like magic shell, granola and coconut flakes tumbling down the mountainous terrain, and fresh fruits that vary based on local availability- Expect papaya always to be in ample supply, based on the thriving papaya trees on premise. Each order is abundant enough to be a considered a full meal in and of itself.
Although it's foolish to imagine that anything would remain impervious to the inevitable current of change touching all corners of modern life, Ai Love Nalo is one thing I hope will still dazzle in the same place, in the same ways, next time I come back.

Embarking upon my wild adventure to the birthplace of Ben & Jerry's, it was a given that there were be numerous sweet samples to entertain my taste buds over the following days, but I could have never anticipated the delights that awaited me beyond the industrial freezer case.
My first taste of Vermont came in liquid form, with a tall, bubbly Maple-Sage Tonic, furnished by Juniper Bar & Restaurant and savored in front of the roaring fireplace at the Hotel Vermont. The partnership between these two establishments proved to be a seamless marriage of efficiency and harmony time and again throughout my short stay.
Perusing the typical menu online, there were clearly one or two default meatless options on offer, but nothing to indicate the level of culinary finesse we were soon to encounter. Developed specifically for the Ben & Jerry's blogger gathering, the chef went above and beyond the call of duty. Greeting us with a lavish welcoming dinner served up family-style, it was dangerously tempting to spoon out a second or third generous helping of every dish.
Ideal for the plummeting winter temperatures outside, the coconut stewed tofu with kaffir lime and peanuts was a top pick, rich and hearty, yet crafted with incredible artistry. The bright citrus notes shone through the coconut broth, infusing each tender cube of tofu thoroughly. Though the seitan cassoulet with cattle beans and celeriac won't win any beauty contests, it was probably my favorite course of the evening. Bearing incredible depth in each creamy, comforting bite, it was a study in umami that I couldn't get enough of. It's exactly the kind of elevated home cooking that I crave after a long, trying day of travel.
I can't go without mentioning the show-stopping dessert. Despite being absolutely stuffed on savories, I shamelessly devoured every last crumb of the tender chocolate layer cake. Smothered with a rich coat of ganache, nearly solid enough to qualify as a solid bar of chocolate by itself, the flaky sea salt and chopped pistachios on top truly did gild the lily… But I wouldn't complain about their inclusion, to say the least.
By the end of the trip, I wanted to set up permanent residence in that plush queen-size bed. It wouldn't have been difficult either, considering the positively luxurious room service menu offered specifically for all of us alternative eaters staying the night. Never before have I experienced the true decadence of a chef-prepared morning meal delivered right to my bed, and let me tell you that even against the impossibly idealized picture painted in so many movies, the real life experience exceeded all expectations. There's something unspeakably luxurious about having someone else make even a humble bowl of oatmeal with almond milk and maple syrup for you, no matter how uncomplicated the task may be. Even now, looking back on all the incredible bites I enjoyed throughout this crazy adventure, it's those quiet moments wrapped up in the soft bed sheets with a cup of hot coffee by my side that I genuinely crave the most.
Ordinarily, I wouldn't go out of my way to highlight an establishment that doesn't readily advertise their prowess in vegan cooking, but these offerings were each so outstanding that it's absolutely worth the extra effort of making a special request. If you're booking a room with Hotel Vermont or making dinner reservations at Juniper, let either of these fine establishments know in advance, and you can rest assured that you'll be well taken care of.

Blinking sleepily, stupidly at the gate, it took a full ten minutes for the meaning of the digital scrawl to sink in. My cross-country, red-eye flight had been further delayed, now rescheduled to depart sometime in the predawn hour of 2AM. A punishing schedule already awaited me upon arrival, complete with a second plane to catch and events lined up from the moment the wheels hit the tarmac. For all this tumult, I would only be in Burlington, Vermont for a two days all told. What on earth could possible be worth that kind of suffering?
Ice cream. And not just any ice cream, but Ben & Jerry's new 100% vegan line of almond milk frozen desserts. It's the one food news story that the whole world is buzzing about lately, omnivorous or otherwise, and I was given the rare opportunity to see the birthplace of this extraordinary creation.
Though the dead of winter would be my last choice for when to visit this picturesque east coast town, the white carpet of snow and cozy blanket of clouds were not without their charms. If only I had an extra day, or perhaps even an extra hour, I would have loved to explore the myriad vegan restaurants just around the corner, but I was here on a bigger mission.
Along with a select group of exclusive, top drawer food bloggers, I was treated to an incredible adventure in the Ben & Jerry's factory and test kitchen. Our main objective, of course, was to get the goods on the buzz-worthy new pints, developed both for the sake of hungry customers demanding dairy-free options, and to decrease the deleterious environmental impact that goes along with milk production. It was made very clear that these four initial flavors are only the beginning of that pursuit. Although it took 3 years and between 70 – 90 trials in development, there are promising hints that pending the success of this launch, we may eventually have even more flavors tempting us on store shelves.
Delicious and ambrosial as the tasting session was, my highlight of the trip was getting the opportunity to play around with the almond milk base to fabricate a "limited edition" frozen dessert. So exclusive that you will never see it in production, it was still a joy to mix up a big batch of the creamy concoction with any and all the chunky mix-ins my heart desired. Working in teams, my group was responsible for unleashing the "Drunk'n Pumpk'n Pie" upon the party, complete with toasted marshmallows, graham cracker crust pieces, and a generous splash of bourbon. Each spoonful had a whole lot of spirit, but alas, it was no match for the truly superlative "Southern Roots" dreamed up by the competition.
Ben & Jerry's, if you're listening: Please put this one on the official line up! Outrageously thick ribbons of caramel swirled through every square inch of the creamy peach bourbon jam base with a hint of cinnamon, intertwining with crunchy chunks of toasted pecans. Within our small, secret sampling society, this creative and unabashedly indulgent mix was a hands-down winner.
But… What about the REAL dairy-free offerings now hitting grocery store shelves and scoop shops nationwide, you ask?
For the full scoop on the flavors themselves and my personal tasting notes, head over to my official review on Go Dairy Free.

All Product Details
Cognac is the first comprehensive history of this celebrated spirit, charting its origins in the Charente wine region of southwestern France and turbulent growing pains to its present-day status as a multimillion-dollar worldwide business. Kyle Jarrard lays out a winding journey through Cognac country filled with a colorful cast of characters who had a hand, one way or another, in shaping its destinyfrom Romans, Vikings, and kings and princes of England to La Rochelle traders, Dutch distillers, Catholic zealots, and even German invaders.
Beginning in ancient limestone bedrock, this engaging history of Cognac sweeps through Roman times and the Dark and Middle Ages to the birth of an eau-de-vie toward the end of the sixteenth century. Jarrard then traces the drink's four-hundred-year struggle to dominate markets the world overa challenge made all the more difficult by war-halted commerce, contraband, usurpation of the Cognac name, and business feuds fought across the Atlantic. He reveals how Cognac distillers weathered vineyard die-offs, the struggle through the world wars, and the unprecedented postwar boom. There's also the unforgettable story of Gustav Klaebisch, a German lieutenant assigned to oversee Cognac's efforts during World War II, who protected the stocks from his own thirsty armies by creating a quota systemeffectively preserving the brandy's future.
In addition, Jarrard takes a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at Hennessy, Rémy Martin, Courvoisier, Martell, Delamain, and other finely tuned companies whose decisions today will make the Cognacs of tomorrow.
Capturing the mystique of the French city and region, as well as the drink itself, Cognac deftly illustrates the spirit's compelling transformation into the world's most sought-after brandy.
-Patricia Wells, author of The Provence Cookbook
Called the ""brandy of the gods"" by Victor Hugo, Cognac is a universal symbol of refinement and quality. In the first comprehensive history of this celebrated drink, Kyle Jarrard charts Cognac's birth in the 1500s and its transformation into the world's most coveted brandy. Along the way, he reveals how Cognac distillers weathered vineyard die-offs, the German occupation, and other challenges over the years-and offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at Hennessy, Remy-Martin, Courvoisier, Martell, and other legendary brands.
For any Cognac lover, this fascinating book will make the perfect gift.
Kyle Jarrard (Paris, France) is a senior editor at the International Herald Tribune and author of the highly acclaimed novels Over There and Rolling the Bones.
"An enthralling volume. . . . a compelling story, not just about the world's best-known eau-de-vie, but about the people who make it and the often violent history of the remarkable but little-known region of France from which it comes."
—Frank J. Prial, wine critic, The New York Times
"Kyle Jarrard has turned his fine eye and writer's skill to the subject of Cognac, that most elegant of all the spirits. . . . While rich in history and admirable scholarship, Cognac really appeals because of Kyle's personal and anecdotal sketches. It's a fine grande champagne of a book, to be savored over and over."
—Patricia Wells, author of The Food Lover's Guide to Paris
"Having read the wonderful book by Kyle Jarrard about Cognac, an anecdote immediately springs to mind. . . . Here now, are the two gems of our cellars, two very rare flasks; these two bottles of Napoleon brandy are the very ones that André Terrail used to take legitimate pride in. . . . True, alas, there is only one left. The other one was stolen by Pierpont Morgan and replaced with a letter of excuse and a blank check, which André Terrail just sent back. That's how the cellars of the Tour d'Argent are perhaps the only place in the world where a billionaire has ever staged a holdup."
—Claude Terrail, restaurateur, La Tour d'Argent, Paris
"Kyle Jarrard has written an authoritative and exquisitely detailed word portrait of Cognac, both the geographic region . . . and the seductive golden spirit that is its most renowned product. This is a book for lovers of both, and for all those who understand that food and drink are not just something to enjoy around the table but a true expression of history, geography, culture, and humanity."
—Nancy Harmon Jenkins, nationally known food writer and author of The Essential Mediterranean
"An intoxicating tale of Cognac, as rich and rewarding as a sip of the amber liquid itself. The people, places, and intensely French history that created this magnificent drink come alive. . . . Readers will be sorry when they've finished the bottle Jarrard serves up so elegantly."
—David Ignatius, columnist, The Washington Post, and author of A Firing Offense and The Sun King

My car shuts down completely while driving down the road. We have had diagnostic checks done and no codes came up. No one can figure out what's causing the car to loose all power and if you bang around the dash where the start button is it will power back on. We think that there is a short and when I hit a pot hole or a bump it shorts out and powers down immediately.
what could cause the car to shut down completely while driving it? on 2007 BMW 328i

Road trip from Grand Rapids?
Hey all I have entered some comps also. My first at an Octoberfest in 2012 and got a first and best of show for a chili ale and got a free entry into the national Comp in Philly last year. didn't do as well in the one in Philly but the feed back was priceless in helping me develop my Chile ale more. Also have entered a few others with varing results but my best I think was a comp in Philly last fall for a milk stout that got me a first and best of show and is going to be brewed at Nodding Head in Philly in a few weeks.
BIAB definitely comes with way, way more trub. It's especially a problem if you mill too finely and get a lot of flour in your grist. I don't know what the magical solution is, I'm still thinking through it, but it seems building in the loss to deadspace in the recipe and leaving behind what settles out in the kettle will help out with that process.
Non long necks should be ok. A long as if fits "correctly" in the case box. Judges will make a mental note if you use anything other than a long neck that matches what you buy at the home brew store (you may have just lost a point). Some judges will even make a "I didn't know anchor made a xyz beer" comment. A passive aggressive way of saying this is nationals, bring it strong, don't cheap out, no excuses.
If a judge is taking a point off because of bottle type someone needs to slap them around a bit
I sometimes make a note of the bottle or cap type, mostly to give the entrant confirmation that it is indeed his beer that I am judging. It's got nothing to do with score.
I agree that it probably won't change the minds of these people... Many of them are seemingly irrationally angry about changes the AHA has gone through. But I think it could benefit potential new members who hear all the negative things but maybe not as much positive things about the AHA... Just food for thought it all. I really just figured it already existed and I could just brush up on it... But then I couldn't find much info.
I agree that they do these things... I'm just saying I would like (and I think some people demand) to see the things they do actually stated vs having to sift through 100 pages on the site to draw inference as to what they do.
So... you basically want to see the Membership Benefits page? Or am I reading that wrong?

Using the Alarm Feature on the MCP79410 RTCC to Implement a Delayed Alarm
Author: Alexandru Valeanu Microchip Technology Inc. • On-board 32,768 kHz Crystal Oscillator for the RTCC • On-chip Digital Trimming/Calibration of the Oscillator • Operates Down to 1.8V • Backup Voltage Down to 1.3V • Operating Temperature Range: - Industrial (I): -40C to +85C • Multi-function Pin: - Open-drain configuration - Programmable clock frequency out • Interrupt Capability (based on the 2 sets of alarm registers ALM0 and ALM1) • Timesaver Function • Time-stamp Registers for Holding the Time/Date of Crossing: - from VDD to VBAT - from VBAT to VDD
An increasing number of applications that involve time measurement are requiring a Real-Time Clock (RTC) device. The MCP79410 is a feature-rich Real-Time Clock and Calendar (RTCC) that incorporates EEPROM, SRAM, unique ID and time-stamp. This application note describes the use of the alarms that are available, in order to build a simple delayed alarm system.
• I2C™ Bus Interface • RTCC with Time/Date: Year, Month, Date, Day of Week, Hours, Minutes, Seconds • Support for Leap Year • Low-power CMOS Technology • Input for External Battery Backup (maintains RTCC and SRAM contents)
The schematic includes a PIC18 Explorer demo board and the I2C RTCC PICtail™ daughter board as shown in Figure 1.

The related internal structures have the following device addresses/control bytes (the RTCC is included in the SRAM bank): • RTCC + SRAM: 0xDE for writes. • Reading the current time count (minutes and seconds). Another necessary connection is between the MFP signal of the RTCC and the RA4 pin. The I2C RTCC is part of the PICtail evaluation board and is directly connected to the MSSP1 module of the MCU.

The Chartwell Cancer Trust, which provides financial support to the Chartwell cancer and leukaemia unit in the Princess Royal University Hospital, held a parade through Biggin Hill, with all participants dressed in Disney-themed costumes.
The parade ended at a fun fair next to Biggin Hill airport, featuring stalls, a hog roast, pimms and live music.
Trustee of the Chartwell Cancer Trust, Bobby Beech, 48, said: "It was a great success, we raised a lot of money.
"Over a thousand people came to the event. To have a turn out like the one we did, it was fantastic, amazing."

Had drinks here , a few times during our stay
Great cocktails and friendly service
Cool decor aswell
the bar is cheek and modern with a nice vibe to it. I had to repeatedly ask for someone to take our drinks order at midday, which took ages to arrive and was wrong. Overpriced bar.
Super essen, die beste champagne sangria! And the beste Hamburger😀😀
Very good location... and the view it's great..
Great food,amazing,fast and friendly service,tasty drinks and unbelievible view and sunsets! Honestly the number ONE in Playa de Palma,absolutely recommended!
Great steak and spotless restaurant. Food was better than most places we had been visiting in El Arenal but go early to see the sunset.
I stopped in at MG Cafe several times during my stay in Majorca. Each time was pleasant and comfortable. The wait staff does their best with English. I tried my Spanish (which isn't awful) but I think the fact that I wasn't just speaking English confused them! Haha
Mainly I stopped for their cafe con leche which is lovely. I...
We struggled a little to communicate as our Spanish is quite poor and the waitress was not too good with English. Having said that, the drinks served were really good. My partner said that it was the best Cortado he had whilst we were away, so we went there several times.
Great for drinks did not eat so can't comment. Toilets immaculate.
They also have heaters for the chilly evenings
A wonderful meal with great service in a delightful setting.
It was very quiet here but it doesn't deserve to be!
Not cheap, but worth every penny! We had sirloin steak, and Greek salad which could not be faulted at all! Lovely atmosphere and beach front views.

Fricks hams are some of the best ham you can get.
A ham with a consistant texture and rich smoky flavor and few negatives like gristle, pickle pockets or dark spots. A Ham at the top of my list for sure.
Very flavorful and really tender loved it..

IMG's TWI "is reviving its legendary made-for-TV sports program, 'The Superstars' for a 25th anniversary special," according to Jeff Jensen of AD AGE. The special "could serve as a springboard for a new ongoing property that TWI would market." TWI has bought time on ABC to air the 2-hour special on March 7, with Sea-Doo as an associate sponsor. Marketers in automotive and telecom "are being approached for title sponsorship," priced at $250,000. The title sponsor "will also have to claim 10 of 40 ad units," each priced at $30,000. Associate sponsors will be linked to individual challenges. Olympian Dan O'Brien and Cowboys RB Herschel Walker are the first athletes to agree to compete, and eight others "are being sought." Jensen also writes that past participants will be brought back "to reminisce." TWI is handling all ad sales (AD AGE, 12/1 issue).

New plans for earthquake strengthening
Relevant offers
National business
All earthquake-prone buildings will have their seismic assessments made public under changes proposed in response to last year's Canterbury quake.
Commercial and multi-storey residential buildings across the country will have to be assessed for seismic strength within five years, with the findings of those assessments made available on a public register, government recommendations released today stated.
If owners do not comply with the assessments' findings – which may include orders to strengthen or demolish their properties – then the Government may enforce measures to ensure the building is unoccupied, Building and Construction Minister Maurice Williamson said.
But the Royal Commission, which released 36 recommendations on earthquake-prone buildings, said local authorities should have the power to demolish the buildings if the owners don't.
The commission released its findings into the failure of 21 buildings during the Christchurch earthquake in February 2011, in which 42 people were killed. A total of 185 people were killed in the quake, including 115 in the Canterbury Television (CTV) building and 18 in the Pyne Gould Corporation (PGC) building.
The commission's recommendations include changes to New Zealand's building legislation. The Ministry of Business Innovation and Employment (MBIE) made its own proposals, which form part of a consultation document.
Consultation on the ministry's proposals begins today and ends on March 8.
The ministry's proposals outline recommendations for how to handle the estimated 15,000-25,000 non-residential or multi-unit or storey residential earthquake-prone buildings in New Zealand. An earthquake-prone building is defined as one that is likely to collapse in a moderate earthquake or which is less than 33 per cent of the building standard.
The commission's document, which follows a year-long review, recommends a national policy for assessing buildings, as well as cutting the time that owners have to strengthen earthquake-prone buildings, from an average of 28 years, to just 15 years.
The commission recommends all unreinforced masonry buildings be strengthened or demolished within seven years and gives a 15 year timeframe for all others, while the ministry recommends 15 years for all.
While most of the recommendations do not relate to stand-alone one-storey residential properties, the commission has also recommended that all "hazardous elements" including unreinforced masonry chimneys, on all buildings should be reinforced or dismantled.
The ministry has said that a number of proposals will become law, but wants to consult widely with the public and key stakeholders before making any decisions.
Crucially, the current threshold for earthquake-prone buildings, often referred to as 34 per cent of the new building standard, will not be raised – a point agreed by both the commission and ministry.
Williamson said it was a matter of balancing safety and cost.
"We finally need to come to a position where we land on that safety versus cost curve...we can't stay on the level of the curve we are currently at."
He estimated that raising the standard to 67 per cent would cost more than $12 billion over the next five years.
The new measures were expected to add about $700 million to bringing New Zealand's earthquake prone buildings up to standard, on top of the $1b cost under the current rules.
Williamson said that 15 years for all assessments and strengthening was a "realistic timeframe" in the ministry's view.
"We must ensure the earthquake-prone buildings system strikes an acceptable balance between protecting people from serious harm and managing the huge economic costs of strengthening or removing the most vulnerable buildings," he said.
The cost to strengthen all earthquake prone buildings under the current system, which has a timeframe of 28 years, is $933m. It would be $1.68b under the ministry's recommendation of 15 years.
"It's a risk based calculation…what is the probability of this event occurring [again]?" Williamson said.
With some exceptions, the majority of buildings in Canterbury stood up well during the quake, he said.
"Look at Hotel Grand Chancellor, it did its job. It was completely munted…but nobody died."
The commissioner's report released today was the fourth of seven volumes.
A report on the investigation into the PGC building where 18 people died has already been released in earlier volumes, and the report into the CTV building where 115 people were killed, was delivered to the Governor-General last month.
Today's report also makes recommendations for best practice, policy and legislation to help minimise the risks to public safety from vulnerable buildings during an earthquakes, but is not binding on the Government.
Most of those killed in the February quake, excluding those who died in the PGC or CTV buildings, were killed by falling debris when they were walking past a building, sitting in a vehicle outside a building, or had run out of a building to escape. Six people were in a neighbouring building when they were killed by falling walls or unreinforced masonry from another building and four people were killed by the building they were in.
Thirty six of the 42 deaths investigated in the report occurred within the CBD and the other six were in Christchurch suburbs.
All but one were caused by older unreinforced masonry buildings or brick or block structures.
Commercial property owners say the Government's recommendations are on the right track, even though it will cost building owners greatly.
While the government estimates that up to 25,000 commercial buildings may need strengthening, at a cost of $1.7 billion, the Property Council believes the true number could be anywhere up to 40,000 buildings.
Council chief executive Connal Townsend said there would be relief the report was out.
''It's quite clear that thousands of buildings can't be tidied up overnight...but it's a lot greater certainly than there ever was under the old regime.''
Public safety was paramount, but Townsend said members would be relieved that the proposals did not include raising the building code.
''They're zeroing in on the things that really matter."
However, the cost of upgrading would still be a struggle for many building owners and the Government had remained quiet on whether seismic work should receive assistance.
Ministers were still discussing the issue, Townsend said.
''We're concerned that the current tax system is actually artificially stacked against owners, and if anything it actually provides real genuine disincentives to owners to take action.''
Finding enough skilled engineers to do seismic assessments would also be a problem, as the Christchurch rebuild and Auckland housing plan drew experts away from other centres.
One of the report's ''stark'' revelations was that although Wellington did have many at-risk commercial buildings and apartments, Auckland had a larger number.
Whanganui's high number of heritage buildings also made it an area of concern.
The council said it was noteworthy that the Government had only addressed commercial buildings, whereas the Royal Commission had wanted to toughen controls on residential housing as well.
Commission's recommendations
- Local authorities should order assessments on all unreinforced masonry buildings within two years and all others within five years.
- Unreinforced masonry buildings to be strengthened or demolished within seven years from the enactment of the amendment and 15 years for others
- Threshold remains at 34 percent, but local authorities can order some buildings with high occupancy to comply with a higher standard
- Buildings which are "very seldom used" may be exempt
- The ministry should create a grading system, ranging from A to E, for buildings which is able to be understood by the general public.
- For unreinforced masonry buildings, chimneys, parapets and ornaments should be secured.
- The Building Act should be changed so local authorities can order residential building owners to address hazardous elements, such as unreinforced masonry chimneys, within a specified timeframe
Ministry's recommendations
- All non-residential and multi unit or storey residential buildings will have to have a seismic capacity assessment within five years of the changes taking effect, and be strengthened or demolished within 10 years after the assessment.
- Assessments would be faster for certain buildings on transport routes or which are identified as crucial in an emergency and some buildings, such as low-use rural churches or farm buildings would be given longer.
- Information on whether the building is below or above the earthquake-prone building threshold will be made available on a public register
- The current national earthquake prone threshold of 33 per cent will not be changed.
An earlier version of this story incorrectly said 18 people died in the PricewaterhouseCoopers building. This should have been (as now written) the PGC building.
