SPIRIT DSP, the world's #1 voice and video over IP engines provider serving more than 1 billion users in 100+ countries, has announced today that Indian telecom operator Infotel, a subsidiary of Reliance Group, one of India's top three private sector business houses with annual turnover of more than $60 billion, has licensed TeamSpiritTM Voice&Video Engine Mobile.
Reliance intends to invest $10 billion in its LTE network and has turned to SPIRIT's software products for voice and video calls over LTE instead of waiting for phone makers who are slow in offering handsets transmitting voice and video in 4G networks. The lack of mobile devices supporting VoLTE (Voice-over-LTE) drives a growing number of carriers to implement a software-only product, which is more flexible, scalable and offers a quicker time to market. SPIRIT engines plays a key role in providing HD voice and video quality as a part of IMS/RCS service infrastructure on popular Android and iOS smartphones and tablet PCs, as well as PCs with Mac OS or Windows.
By using SPIRIT engines, Reliance will be able to offer its subscribers high-quality services as an alternative to Skype over cellular networks and attract new high-value subscribers that used services from other operators and commercial OTT service providers.
"While the number of LTE networks is growing, the quantity of mobile devices models supporting VoLTE is extremely small. LTE phones and tablets mainly support only data transmission over an LTE modem, while voice and video are going via 2G/3G network. It's an akward situation for mobile operators who had hoped that phone OEMs would flood the market with 4G LTE-ready phones," said SPIRIT's VP Alex Kravchenko. "Carriers in dozens of countries now plan to or already deploy VVoIP services under their own brands in an effort to stop subscribers from switching to OTT providers, such as Skype, Viber and WhatsApp. The TeamSpirit software engines enable the transmission of voice and video packets via LTE modems and help operators use mobile devices available in today's market. Reliance's decision to follow the growing trend is a good example of carriers' flexibility to create their own competitive services faster. It's The Fastest who wins in today highly competitive technology world, not The Biggest one."
About TeamSpirit Voice and Video Engine
TeamSpirit Voice&Video Engines support both RCS-e and VoLTE. The engines include resource-efficient HD voice and video codecs, echo and noise cancelling (AEC), automatic voice and video rate selection (ARS), packets delays mitigation, speech enhancement, network adaptation, voice and video synchronization, a dozen of standard digital telephony functions and more, in addition to a dozen of ITU-T standard G.7xx and H.26x codecs included in the engine. SPIRIT also offers its own industry leading patented IP-MR™ (IETF 6262) adaptive and error-resilient HD voice codec that has been selected by Tier1 telecom operators to deliver HD voice to dozens of millions of their subscribers. TeamSpirit uses H.264SVC and VP8 video codecs. TeamSpirit Voice&Video Conferencing Engine is an additional server-side module bringing all the power of TeamSpirit's robust high-quality calling to centralized multi-point communication scenarios.
TeamSpirit Conferencing powers SPIRIT's VideoMostTM software for massively multipoint videoconferencing. SPIRIT video engines are available on Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and allow users of smartphones, tablets and notebooks across different OSs to make video calls from iPhone to Android smartphones to PC, as well as participate in HD videoconferencing with automatic quality adaptation to specific network conditions, screen size and processing power.
About SPIRIT DSP

In the immortal words of Tonio K. [...]
Bottleneck distills 30 years of Catton's efforts to better understand why Americans (and others) have not acted on knowledge whose application could have softened the impact of our overshooting Earth's carrying capacity. The book analyzes with fresh insights the interplay of labor specialization, money, and language in the modern era, revealing how we have arrived almost inevitably at "humanity's impending impasse" (the book's subtitle). I cannot adequately summarize that analysis here, but please know that it exposes unsustainable structural features in our behaviors and institutions too deep to be altered by our current systems of social organization and governance.
Even after continued drawdown forces humankind through our 21st century ecological bottleneck, there's no guarantee that survivors can or will avoid repeating our mistakes. That's a major reason why Catton spent years researching and writing this book. I can imagine that as he forswore an easy retirement, dedicating his energies to this project, he may have tacked to his office wall for inspiration Diderot's remark from the foreword to the 1765 edition of the French Encyclopedia: "Suppose that a revolution, whose seeds have sprouted in some remote region of the earth or may be germinating in the very center of a civilized country, should burst forth, destroy the cities, scatter the nations, and bring back ignorance and darkness. All will not be lost if a single complete edition of this work survives.Read more ›
This book 'Bottleneck' rambles, digresses on everything from baseball minutea, a detailed history of 20th century sociology and sociologists, to children's fables and his family life. Most of us are too pressed for time to filter the useful information in this book from the extensive irrelevant digressions. Much of this, quite frankly, is probably due to the writer's advanced age at the time that this book was written, and poor editing. It is a catch-all college professor's memoirs jumbled around a serious subject.
Everything in 'Bottleneck' that is useful is a rehash of what the writer gave us in 'Overshoot'. Your time and money are much better spent pursuing that work. 'Overshoot' should be re-released under the title 'Bottleneck' and this effort should be scrapped.
And yes, I have read both books.
My hat is off to this writer. He has left behind a great work. But this book is not it.

World Bulletin / News Desk
Cambodia closed all its kindergartens and primary schools on Wednesday to prevent the spread of a deadly virus that causes hand, foot and mouth disease and has killed at least 55 children since April, a senior government official said.
Sixty-one cases had been identified as the Enterovirus 71 (EV-71), which has affected children between the ages of three months and 11 years.
The outbreak has raised concern in other parts of the region, such as Thailand and the Philippines. Children have tested positive in both countries for strains of hand, foot and mouth disease, although no deaths have been reported.
In Cambodia, 55 children are known to have died, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Most were younger than three years old and died within 24 hours of being admitted to hospital.
"After receiving report from some provinces about the rapid spread of hand, foot and mouth disease in schools, we don't have to wait two more weeks," Mak Van, Education Ministry Secretary of State, told Reuters.
He said the closures would be in force for 10 weeks. Schools had been due to close for holidays at the end of August.
The WHO, which has been helping Cambodia investigate the deaths, said on Wednesday it was concerned the closures could cause alarm. The authorities, it said, were able to contain the spread.
"We did not recommend the closing of nurseries and primary schools because that would create unnecessary public panic," WHO representative Sonny Krishnan said in an email.
"The HFMD caused by EV-71 is under control by the Ministry of Health and ...(it has) the capacity to contain it."
He said the authorities were monitoring the situation and no new cases had been confirmed.
Neighbouring Thailand has closed 18 schools in Bangkok to try to prevent a spread of various strains of hand, foot and mouth disease, of which there have been at least 12,500 cases nationwide since the start of the year.
The Ministry of Public Health has drafted a surveillance plan to try to prevent the EV-71 strain from taking a hold in Thailand.
In the Philippines, health officials said two children had tested positive for the enterovirus, but not necessarily the deadly EV-71. The two came from different regions and neither had travelled recently outside the country.
"We are still awaiting the (lab) results," said Eric Tayag of the Department of Health. "They are not in the same neighbourhood. They are less than eight and are doing all right now."
He said health officials had wanted to "alert the public that hand, foot and mouth doesn't have to come from other countries. We have them, except that we don't have the form of the disease. Most likely it's not EV-71, but the laboratories should tell us that better."
Chinese authorities on Sunday said hand, foot and mouth disease had killed 17 people and infected nearly 35,000 in central Hunan province since June, according to the official Xinhua news agency.

One of the big issues that Barack Obama campaigned on was a change of tone in Washington politics. He promised a to make a real effort at bipartisanship, to eliminate some of the most blatantly profiteering and money-grubbing aspects of politics, and to try to "disagree without being disagreeable."
But, then came the reality of being President…
Or so you might wonder. I'm on the fence on this one. When it comes to legislation, there are screams of FOUL! on both sides: with the stimulus bill, the GOP claims Pelosi rammed it through with 8500 earmarks, but Obama claims that over 1/3 of the bill included measures written by GOP members and yet they got no votes at all; with health care, the Obama team claims to have made genuine overtures of bipartisanship only to be slapped in the face by an orchestrated effort of obstruction, but the GOP claims that the entire bill was written behind closed doors and it was so long and convoluted that they couldn't even read it.
And then you have these grand speeches before joint sessions of congress. Here, with all the pomp and circumstance, eyes and cameras, you would think that civility would be a given. Yet, last year Obama so incensed members of the GOP with claims about health care, that Mr. Joe Wilson (no, the other one), shouted "You lie!" Then, this year, in the SOTU, Obama scolds the Supreme Court (a maneuver almost without precedent) and provokes Justice Alito's slightly more subdued version of Joe Wilson.
What is going on?!
Is Obama holding the olive branch in one hand but brandishing the sword in the other? Are our governmental representatives systematically incapable of acting civilized, working together, and speaking the truth?
I'm not sure. President Obama is now promising regular meetings with key members of both parties, and monthly events with GOP members. Perhaps he's serious about this stuff.
What's clear is that no matter how big a majority one party has in congress, we can't get anything worthwhile done without bipartisanship. Let's hope that the tone can change and that Obama is serious about changing it.

Title: Can poisonous seed of wild plum be safely removed after steaming from Seymour IA
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I read on a related questions that you said the pit/seeds of all wild plums are poisonous. My question is this, can I juice the entire fruit for making jelly without removing the pit first? I have a steam juicer and would like to put the entire cleaned fruit into it to process rather than pitting them first. Thank you.
There are 35 members of the Prunus (plum) genus native to North America, 11 of which are native to Iowa. Of those, the one that grows closest to Wayne County is Prunus americana (American plum) which the USDA shows as growing in Clarke County, next door from you on the southern border of Iowa. We always check for this sort of information to be sure the climate, rainfall and soils are right in the area in which the plant in question is being grown.
While nearly everything we read in our research mentioned the fact that everything on the Prunus plant, twigs, leaves, seeds, was poisonous except the fruit, no mention was made of removal of the seed before cooking. We found numerous recipes for wild plum jelly, including this one from GardenGuides.com How to Make Wild Plum Jelly. None of the recipes mentioned removing the seed first, but all specified draining the "mush" after cooking through several layers of cheesecloth, and discarding what was left in the cheesecloth mesh. That would certainly be a step not to be missed, because the fruit itself is small and the seeds smaller, so you need to be sure they are gone. We read several recipes from reputable sources and no mention of poisoning was made, so we think you are safe. The third picture from our Image Gallery, below, is the seed of the fruit with attached pulp.

Sofia Vergara happy to use looks for work
London: `Modern Family` star Sofia Vergara takes advantage of her looks and isn`t in a rush to prove herself in any other way.
The 40-year-old brunette beauty, who is best known for her feisty character Gloria in the hit sit-com, says her stunning appearance has helped her get roles.
While she would be interested in taking on a more challenging part, she is happy doing what she`s good at in the meantime, reported OK magazine.
"Well, I`ve always taken advantage of my looks, for sure. I`ve never been shy about it or apologised about it. I love it. If they need a sexy woman, I don`t care - I`m not dying to prove anything else.
"It`s like I would love to do something a little bit more dramatic and maybe like a sick patient or like a crazy hooker or something like that! But I`m happy playing characters that are portrayed sexy because I am who I am and take advantage of it," she added.

1. Once upon a time, there was a terror of a train in New York City called the G.
Audrey Stanfield, 26-year-old NYC resident and frequent G train rider, made this video about just how frustrating the experience is.
2. It doesn't come all that often, when it's even running at all.
3. So if you're not always rushing to it, you're not doing it right.
4. Because you never know when it will actually be there.
5. And if you miss it, another G train won't show up forever and ever.
6. Barely missing the G is one of the most frustrating things about living in New York City.
7. It will drive you to your wits end.
8. Frustrating doesn't even begin to describe the pain.
9. But the silver lining is, you also come to REALLY appreciate the few times your train actually functions the way it should.
10. Bless you, rare moments of G train bliss.

HAIKOU, China (AP) – Tiger Woods says he is willing to put Golf Channel analyst Brandel Chamblee's inflammatory criticism behind him. The world No. 1 now says that it's "in the hands of the Golf Channel."
Chamblee was writing for "SI Plus" when he gave Woods an "F" for his season for being "cavalier with the rules." He compared it with a time Chamblee received an "F" on a math test in the fourth grade for cheating.
Chamblee eventually apologized on Twitter for inciting such a divisive issue.
Speaking ahead of his exhibition match Monday with Rory McIlroy, Woods says he is moving forward but he doesn't know what Golf Channel has planned. Golf Channel has not commented on Chamblee's column, which was written for another publication.

Neonatal Hemochromatosis Differential Diagnoses
- Author: Jatinder Bhatia, MBBS, FAAP; Chief Editor: Carmen Cuffari, MD more...
Diagnostic Considerations
When liver failure is diagnosed in the first 1-2 days of life, neonatal hemochromatosis is by far the most common diagnosis. Afterward, many other conditions can manifest and must be excluded. They include all other causes of hepatic failure, including infective, metabolic, and hemorrhagic causes.
The following are other causes of liver failure in the newborn:
- Antenatal infection with adenovirus
- Coxsackievirus
- Alpha1-antitrypsin (A1At) deficiency
- Hereditary fructose intolerance
- Maternofetal blood group incompatibility
- Hemoglobinopathy
- Hemophagocytic syndrome
- Inborn defects in erythrocyte membrane or enzymes
- Sepsis
- Ischemia or abnormal perfusion
- Extrahepatic biliary atresia
- Hepatic infarct
- Congenital leukemia
All infants with a diagnosis of liver failure should undergo testing until a final diagnosis is reached.
Failure to diagnose neonatal hemochromatosis, resulting in the family having subsequent children with the same diagnosis, could result in legal actions against the physician.

In 2007, Georgia Sen. Johnny Isakson co-sponsored the Medicare End-of-Life Care Planning Act, which would expand Medicare's coverage of voluntary end-of-life counseling. Similar measures had been included in the current health care reform legislation.
"The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obamas death panel so his bureaucrats can decide whether they are worthy of health care.
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, from an Aug. 7 Facebook entry

Merry day for Marines
RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA Santa unloaded more than a sleigh-load of goodies bound for some lucky Marine Corps families at St. John's Episcopal School on Monday.
Hundreds of students, their families and staff at the private Rancho school provided lots of help.
As part of the eighth annual Operation Christmas Spirit, the school adopted 40 Marine families from six units at Camp Pendleton and shopped from their wish lists.
Families got toys, furniture, baby supplies, gift cards and fun family outings such as trips to Disneyland. Each family got at least $1,000 worth of goodies. Kids got three gifts each to unwrap, parents two each.
The program was done in conjunction with Operation Help A Hero, a nonprofit foundation started by Rancho resident Cindy Farnum to help support Marines and their families.
"It's awesome that with what we do someone cares and wants to give back and make our kids' Christmas something we couldn't have done," said Cpl. Bryan Carrier, 23, father of four.

Albert Finney is magical in his portrayal of Scrooge, transforming his physical appearance through the art of makeup and fine acting from a robust youth to an aged man during the course of the story.
The supporting cast is also remarkable, and the songs add flavor to the overall atmosphere of Dickens' era London, as well as great and unexpected depth to the core theme of the story: the precarious reclamation of a person's soul.
Dickens' brilliant story manages to convey religious themes without preaching, and provides an accessible character in Scrooge that we can understand, root for, and ultimately, rejoice with and learn from when his heart is turned outward to his fellow man.
Vastly entertaining and remarkably fresh, this life-affirming version of "A Christmas Carol," along with many of its songs, will stay with viewers long after the final credits have rolled. For me, "Scrooge" has become a treasured Christmas tradition alongside so many other beloved yule time favorites. I applaud its long overdue DVD release!
The newly released DVD looks fantastic. The film is 33 years old, and its production design and colors are rendered well on the DVD. The overture is included.
Here's some quick impressions after seeing the film again:
- Alec Guinness is a genius! As Marley's ghost, Guiness has some very funny moments. Watch his performance closely: Guiness achieves "ghostliness" without the aid of digital effects. Watch him "float" parts of his body, especially his hands when he sits down. The walk, the voice, the "floating". Simply brilliant.
- There are several very good songs. My favorites: "I Like Life", "Thank You Very Much", and "Happiness".
- I actually like the flashbacks when Scrooge is young and in love. Very touching. And pretty.
- They really edited this film for TV! There's scenes in SCROOGE that I've *never* seen before; specifically, the scene in hell at the end. Funny!
So, even though SCROOGE brought Christmas into my house in September, it was a welcomed, early celebration.
Dicken's timeless story.
The production values are scrumptious. The scenes of the streets and inhabitants of London are brought to vivid life.
You'll feel as if you are walking right along with Scrooge as he collects from those who owe him. Right down to wanting to partake of the hot soup a vendor gives him.
Scrooge's home, cold-cold grey and unloved and unlived in. A
haunting metaphor for his life as he lives it.
The songs tell the story almost better than Dicken's prose.
Alec Guinness is perfect as Marley's ghost.
All the visitations are splendidly moody and spooky.
Kenneth Moore as the ghost of Christmas Present is big and brassy and wonderful.
Dame Edith Evans is an effective Christmas Past with her distinctive voice and elegant bearing.
All the supporting characters are wonderful.
Bob Crachitt and family singing in their small flat is
Considering that Albert Finney was a very young man portraying an old curmudgeon, his performance was STELLAR.
The flashbacks of Scrooge as a young man in love and his burgeoning love of work and money, then to Scrooge, an old and isolated old man is a chance to watch a brilliant actor at work.
I watch this film each and every year. Watching Scrooge be redeemed and find his way is what it is all about.
I couldn't possibly choose a favorite song. They are all wonderful.
I Love this film.
Sure, there were liberties taken, but IT'S A MUSICAL, for crying out loud, and a handsome one at that. If you don't like musicals, stop reading my review and, in fact, why are you even reading any of the others? Unlike most musicals, however, this one manages to keep a strong storyline intact, with or without the songs, and nowhere is this made more clear than when Ebenezer Scrooge (Albert Finney), is confronted by the ghost of Christmas future. Some people have said that this movie tends to be scary, but I think it is more creepy than scary, except for this one pivotal scene. It is wonderful to see Finney at the top of his game (Isn't that common for him anyway?), as one of the most effective and sympathetic--at times even empathetic--Scrooges to grace filmdom? I love his portrayal of the old miser from the fact that he's such a tight rich man that he dresses lousy compared to the other rich people you see on the streets, and his house is dark, almost barren, not unlike the man himself.
I absolutely love David Collings' performance as Bob Cratchet, which is so well done that you understand how he and his family are richer than Scrooge in their poverty from the outset.Read more ›

Prolimatech Samuel 17 Low Profile CPU Cooler
Test System & Test Results
TweakTown uses a different method for testing CPU heatsinks which allows for an even playing field across all product tests. We feel that by using the same ambient temperature and strict lab-like testing procedures we are able to accurately compare one product to another. More information on our testing procedure can be found in the T.E.C.C. article here.
With the compact nature of the Samuel 17, I didn't feel it was actually fair to put it up against a powerhouse like the Noctuas, Megahalems, or even the Xigmateks with 120mm fans, as they don't fit where this cooler can. With that said, I tested it against the listing of coolers with fans under 120mm. If any of the coolers are in contention of fitting half of the places the Samuel 17 can, it would be these and not the coolers I usually see with 120mm fans.
At idle the low noise solution really took a beating coming in at 61.7 degrees. Even at the lower settings, you can see how important fan choice is to the actual numbers you are going to get. Just a few CFM more gained a five and a half degree difference in temperatures.
Under full load, that 60CFM fan just doesn't cut it in my opinion. Coming in at 67 degrees, dropped it right into stock cooling range. As in the idle testing, with 30 more CFM I got a similar five degree difference. By no means are these fans the best in their groups; they were what I had on hand. I strongly suggest you make a wise choice on the fan and really look for something with the best CFM and the lowest sound rating your ears can take from across the room in a HTPC. If this is going into a SFF type of LAN rig, the noise levels won't matter as much and even more performance can be had from this cooler.
My sound testing is solely based on my choices of fans for testing, but I did still want you to get an idea of where a couple of average fans would place the Samuel 17. At idle the Lian Li fan left it dead silent, but at an expense to performance. These five degrees of temperature gained were at quite the expense to your ears.
Again even at load you can see how broad the spectrum can be, and there are tons of choices in between. Either way, silent or loud, the simple and first laughable David has come and conquered our Goliath.

To restore growth inhibitory activity of a humanized bispecific EGFR × CD16 diabody (hEx16), we efficiently prepared 15 different hEx16 mutants by using a proven in vitro refolding method. Some mutants showed a recovery of binding strength to over 10 times the original strength of hEx16 and the cancer cell growth inhibition was also restored for several mutants.

Product Description:
John Nada (Roddy Piper) is a quiet loner, a drifter who gets work where ever he can find it. While working on a construction site in L.A. and sleeping in a vagrant community at night, John stumbles upon a secret society of alien beings who pose as wealthy and powerful people in human society. John joins a rebel group commited to exposing this conspiracy, and becomes their reluctant leader and the only hope of the human race. Former wrestler Rowdy Roddy Piper is outstanding as the unassuming hero, playing the role with understated shock at what he uncovers and stubborn courage when he confronts it. Director John Carpenter laces the film with his trademark blend of humor and horror, making aliens that are hideously arrogant, greedy, and easy to hate, while the humans are confused and desperate in their struggle against them. The world looks a little different at the end of THEY LIVE, and one will never look at billboards, money, or sunglasses the same way again. The film contains the longest, and perhaps most realistic, fist fight in film history. Paying homage to INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS, the film was based on the short story EIGHT O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING by Ray Nelson.
Plot Synopsis:
Aimless drifter John Nada finds work as a construction worker in Los Angeles, where a wide gulf separates the upper classes from the working classes. After donning a pair of special sunglasses, Nada discovers that many of society's elite are not humans, but aliens who control humanity through subliminal messages. Now he's the only one who can save the Earth from these villainous invaders.
Plot Keywords:

Production Notes:
- Theatrical release: June 14, 1988.
- The fight scene between Roddy Piper and Keith David lasts over eight minutes, making it the longest single fist fight scene in cinema history outside of boxing movies. The fight was intended to last under a minute, but Piper and David really started to fight during the sequence. Director John Carpenter thought it looked, so good he kept most of it intact.
- Frank Armitage, the credited writer for THEY LIVE, is really John Carpenter.
THEY LIVE was former pro wrestler Rowdy Roddy Piper's first starring role in a film. He said it was much easier than wrestling.
- The infamous "chew bubblegum and kick ass" line was improvised by Roddy Piper.

In the first of our series focusing on the region's mayors, Siena Yates speaks to Matamata-Piako district mayor Hugh Vercoe.
Being mayor for nearly 15 years obviously agrees with Hugh Vercoe, as he stands on the side of the road waving at passers-by like a celebrity in a parade.
He's a man with little time but time enough for those he knows - which, evidently, is most of Te Aroha's population, and his pride in his town and district is unmistakable.
Smiling, he talked about what has been a banner year for the Matamata-Piako district.
It has sat comfortably in the limelight of The Hobbit, welcomed new community projects and seen huge advances in local meat and dairy industries, but he does fear it may be less smooth in the new year.
Leaning back and smiling proudly in his Te Aroha office, Mr Vercoe described a thriving district.
On a grass roots level, he said more people were putting in for resource consents and building than in past years, and with the ever-growing production of companies such as Inghams Enterprises, Silver Fern Farms, Open Country Dairy and Waikato Business Excellence Supreme Award-winner Greenlea Premier Meats, he said the region was "tracking along nicely".
The region has also gained publicity and a massive tourism boost on the back of Sir Peter Jackson's latest epic, The Hobbit. Matamata, home to Hobbiton, has already seen a boost in tourism numbers which are expected to double over the next year, following therelease of the film early this month and the sequel on its way in 2013.
The Lord of the Rings films brought huge amounts of publicity, tourism and money to Matamata and the rest of the district, and now The Hobbit has been reviving that effort.
"The Hobbit's been absolutely fantastic for this area. The gateway [i-Site] looks fantastic and is getting a lot of positive comments, and it's just an enormous benefit, not just to Matamata but for the district," said Mr Vercoe.
"People are coming here on a limited timeframe just to come and see the movie set, so they go to Matamata first and have a look around, then they'll go and ask what else there is to do nearby and they'll be referred on here to Te Aroha, or to Morrinsville and that's how we get that flow-on effect. It's great."
However, funding for things like regional tourism, which for Matamata-Piako amounts to $100,000 each year, may become a thing of the past as a result of new local government reform.
Then-local government minister Nick Smith said the Local Government Act Amendment Bill would keep local authorities in check, encouraging better financial discipline and providing services easier for the "average ratepayer" to comprehend.
However, Mr Vercoe said the reform put "a question mark" over whether funding regional tourism and other such projects with ratepayer money will even be legal as the changes set in. "That's been the biggest thing," he said, "and will be going into 2013 as well. But we'll just have to wait and see, I think."
He was also somewhat dubious about what the new year might bring in regards to the council changes to the district's waste water management, popularly labelled the "pan tax".
Earlier in the year, council flipped back and forward before eventually settling on three options for wastewater payment, including pay by pan, by household equivalents, or by metered usage - a decision Mr Vercoe stands by unwaveringly.
"How can you have one flat charge for every user? It's unfair. Most people are running on the water meters now, and they have - reluctantly - agreed that it is a fairer system," said Mr Vercoe.
"There hasn't been a terribly big impact so far this year but I've no doubt we'll start to see it next year."
But with the bad comes the good, and 2013 will also see the rise of a multimillion-dollar events centre in Te Aroha, after securing enough funding for the council to get behind it.
"They came to us and asked for the funding and I said, 'Put your money where your mouth is'. So they went away and they came back and said, 'Well, we've got a million dollars', and that grabs your attention, when someone says that. So we put up the $2 million they asked us for and they're going to try to raise the rest," said Mr Vercoe.
But before finding out what the new year has to bring, it's off to the family bach for the Vercoe family Christmas - far enough to take a break but close enough should he need to come back, particularly with his civil emergency obligations.
"But it should be good. I'm hoping the whole family can get out there and I can have a bit of a break before getting back into it all next year."

So simple yet so beautiful! I made them with embellishments that are plastic so they are lightweight and comfortable to wear. Inside the embellishment is an orange crinkled foil that gives these earrings their shine and shimmer. They are quite small but make a big statement. They measure a tad under hald of an inch in diameter. Get these while they last!
