|An aerial view shows the relationship of the four buildings to one another, connected via covered walkways. The two housing pods are shown at the bottom and to the left, in the photograph.
When asked what requests the owners made for the new North Fraser Pretrial Centre in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada, the Centre's Director, John Surridge, jokingly replied that they didn't request, they demanded. The same demands were described as "severe" by John Richardson, a corrections consultant with HKS, a Dallas-based architecture firm that was part of the design team. But the demands both men talked about were never viewed as unreasonable, only challenging.
The facility's owner is the British Columbia Building Corporation, and the challenge they put forward, according to Greg Dowling, partner at DGBK Architects, the lead architect on the project, was "to find a better way of delivering correctional services in the province and to do it with a significantly less expenditure of money, both on the capital side as well as the operating side." The targets they set were pretty aggressive.
"The original budget for this project, which was a budget based on their history with other facilities, was $54 million [$35.1 million U.S.], and they told us we have to do better than that," said Dowling, "They wanted a facility to be built for $34 million [$22.1 million U.S.], so automatically we had, at the outset, a real challenge to cut $20 million [$13 million U.S.] out of what they would typically spend on a project of this type and scale."

The owners also requested operational expenditures for the 167,333-square-foot facility be drastically reduced. John Surridge estimates that operational costs at other facilities throughout the province average $190 per inmate [$123.5 U.S.] while at North Fraser costs were reduced to an average of $100 per inmate [$65 U.S.].
When final calculations are tallied, the North Fraser Pretrial Centre was constructed for $32.4 million [$21 million U.S.], a 40 percent reduction in construction costs. Operational costs were reduced by 50 percent.
Efficiency and Innovation
|The North Fraser Pretrial Center is the first Canadian justice facility with three-tiered housing pods. Cells are designed for single-occupancy, but can be double bunked.
The building's efficiencies required the team to reinvent the way such facilities are built in the province.
"We went through a formal value engineering process as part of the project, and I think we looked at and considered well over 200 different issues to try to find the most effective economy or the best value for any aspect of the design of the facility," explains Dowling.
In the process of setting a new standard in Canada, the team developed the country's first three-tiered living units. In order to improve the facility's operations, the building's adjacencies had to be reduced; in other words, housing units needed to be pulled closer together and visitation, dayrooms, exercise rooms, and outdoor recreation areas needed to be connected to the living units. Typically, Canadian facilities feature two-tiered living units separated from the facility's other services, which requires a great deal of inmate movement. The new layout greatly reduces inmate movement and eliminates the need for many corridors. In each housing pod, four 30-cell living units-each cell can be double bunked-surround an elevated, central control station. Each pod has four dayrooms, four exercise rooms, and four outdoor recreation areas. Inmates eat, exercise, receive non-contact visits, and even are treated for illness within the housing units. Inmates with severe health crisis are transported to the facility's health care unit.

Creating the country's first three-tiered housing unit was not simply a matter of designing three levels and drafting finished schematics. Because the concept reduced the ratio of staff to inmates from the typical one officer for every 20 inmates to one officer for every 30 or 45 inmates, the unionized correctional officers had to accept the plan. While the staff ratio served to reduce operational costs, security was tantamount.
Union representative accompanied the project's team members on tours of similar three-tiered facilities in Texas and Colorado, to witness firsthand the relationship between the inmates and the built environment. "The tours were quite valuable," says Dowling. "We saw some things we wanted to do and saw some things we didn't want to do."
HKS's John Richardson was initially concerned about the officer's union's reaction to the three-tiered plan because the design dictates the staffing. If the officers were not convinced that a 1:45 ratio would be safe, the design would have to be rethought, staff would be increased, and efficiencies reevaluated. However, the correctional officer's union agreed to the concept and the plan went through. "It was a drastic change in philosophy," says Richardson, "but those changes were critical."
The direct-supervision facility can, theoretically, rise to an inmate to correctional officer ratio of 1:60, depending on how many of the cells are double bunked. It's unlikely that number will ever be reached and the optimum number of 1:45 or 1:48 will be adhered to as strictly as possible. Currently, Surridge estimates that only about 40 percent of the cells are double bunked.
While HKS played a crucial role in helping develop the programs and refine concepts and schematics, the firm's four to five months of intense involvement ended when construction documents were complete and groundbreaking began.

Big Building, Small Footprint
Because of its relatively compact design-the building's total square footage is about half that of similar facilities-the multi-story complex occupies less than four of the site's 10 acres. In addition to the living units, the complex also includes facilities for intake, health care, and maximum-security cells, as well as facilities for support functions, administrative offices, and food preparation.

While the buildings are separate structures, they're all connected by enclosed walkways. The rationale behind keeping the buildings separate, which might seem to contradict the notion of efficiency, is that the architects wanted to include as much natural daylighting in the living units as possible. Looking at the floor plans, the buildings read as one facility.
Facility expansion would be handled in the same manner; there's enough space left on the site to allow the construction of at least two 120-bed pods, which would be connected to the main facility in a similar fashion.
John Surridge doesn't expect the facility to be expanded anytime soon, however. "The expansion rate is flat," he answers when asked about increasing inmate populations. At the time the facility was conceived, in 1997, the province of British Columbia was facing increasing inmate populations and a consolidation of inmates from older, less-secure facilities that were being shuttered. By the time the facility was completed in April 2001, crime rates and consolidation had leveled out.
Holding off on expansion also holds the line on site costs. Only a portion of the site was improved for construction, and any addition would create significant site work. Located in an industrial area outside of Vancouver, the site exhibits poor soil conditions, and at one time had been the dumping ground for contaminated soil removed from another building site. While removal of environmental contaminants was part of the initial construction project, other site improvements would be required to accommodate any future building.
The facility itself blends with its industrial neighbors, with Surridge saying that concrete-including the use of tilt-up-and steel give the building a commercial look. "What happens is that many of the people who visit here have to drive by several times before they find it because it looks so much like an industrial building, not an unattractive one, but it still looks industrial," says Surridge. "People don't recognize it as a jail."
Inside, industrial-level finishes keep the building's operating and maintenance costs low. However, the facility is in the midst of installing rubber flooring over the exposed, colored concrete floor because the dying process didn't work out as had hoped.
A Possible Prototype
The North Fraser Pretrial Centre still is a one-of-a-kind facility in Canada. While the intent was to make the building's design an easily adaptable prototype, no facility has yet been constructed using the model, again because inmate levels in British Columbia have steadied. There is, however, talk of decommissioning several facilities in the future and building off this model. And, an affordable model it is; the building has a 40-year life expectancy, according to Dowling, and with an anticipated annual operating savings of $13 million [$8.5 million U.S.], the facility's pay back period is estimated to be less than four years.

A very busy but wonderful day begins in Madrid, we can expect many surprises: walks, partying, music, shopping. The capital of Spain has many neighborhoods, areas and secret corners, worthy of being mentioned.My journey begins with a ride in the Salamanca district, one of the most chic of Madrid that reminds me of the magic Notting Hill district of London. I was attracted by its streets, the colors of the houses, without forgetting the sobriety of London. Notting Hill is one of the most fashionable districts of London, famous for its Carnival, for its boutiques, its beautiful Victorian houses, restaurants and its famous Portobello Road market, the favorite of Londoners. Notting Hill, which is a neighborhood where many celebrities have moved, has always been a party place, filled with bars and clubs.
From there I go to Madrid's Golden Mile, the shopping hub of the most exclusive shops and where the smallest thing can become the most expensive. Without doubt, my favorite hobby. Here you breathe a good but select atmosphere. An area that brings me one of my best memories of Paris, in particular La Rue Faubourg Saint Honore in Paris and the Champs Elysees. Where glamour is untouchable, it is just in the air. Along its two kilometers there are shops of fashion brands such as Chanel, Christian Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Salvatore Ferragamo, Yves Saint Laurent… The rich and famous buy their clothes and accessories there.
And after a day of walking and shopping, what better choice than a fun time. Where? In the Latina area, for drinks and beers. An area with lots of atmosphere and a concentration of young people, ideal for canas y tapas, the most typical Spanish leisure pursuit, nothing else in the world compares to it. I sit on a terrace and relax listening to classical music; my mind takes me to the Latin Quarter of Paris. Located a few meters from Notre Dame and across the Seine river, it is one of Paris busiest places especially in the evening. In the small streets and alleys there are bars and restaurants from all over the world and for all budgets, not to mention the traditional pubs in the Parisian fashion style.
Walking the streets of Madrid, I realize that every corner has different bands and genders, representative of all cultures and ideas.
And to top off a fantastic day of leisure I go to Gran Via, full of noise, people, cars… the very center of Madrid. I have some theater tickets to see the musical Chicago.
It reminds me of the last time I saw a musical. It was on Broadway, the wide avenue that runs along the entire island of Manhattan in New York to see the great spectacle of Mamma Mia!
I leave the wonderful musical and the noise continues at downtown. Madrid never sleeps.

In a little more than 24 hours, the canonization ceremony begins in Rome for the sister from Kalaupapa who will become Hawaii's second Saint.
Mother Marianne Cope is credited with healing miracles and for one local musician, he said he's living proof of her spiritual power and he's put her story into a song.
When Sean Tiwanak sings his song written for Mother Marianne it comes from his heart, or at least what's left of it.
"I couldn't even sing one line without gasping for air," said Tiwanak.
Before 2005, at age 37, when an infection destroyed his heart, Tiwanak was living the high life as a successful businessman and music producer. All of that was lost when he had severe heart failure. He said every night for he and his family was traumatic.
"I would be saying goodbye to them before I went to sleep because I really didn't know if I was going to survive the night," said Tiwanak.
Things began to change when he was given a relic of Mother Marianne from the Sisters of St Francis.
"The shroud that they placed over Mother Marianne's body when they exhumed her from Kalaupapa. I had a piece of that with me all the time and that really made me feel close to her," said Tiwanak.
In his darkest of moments, Tiwanak said he would pray to Mother Marianne.
"I asked Mother Marianne, in the dark, with a candle on, if you help me, I promise I won't let people forget who you are," said Tiwanak.
Today, with the help of a pacemaker, Tiwanak now sings with relative ease.
The song, inspired by the letters Marianne wrote to King Kalakaua, is both a tribute and thank you to Marianne.
"A mahalo from our family and from me, too, but also just to honor her for what she's done for the people of Hawaii," said Tiwanak.
The song has been performed many times, including by the Symphony Orchestra Choir.
Tiwanak hopes what people hear is a message of faith, hope and love.
"I have my struggles, but I feel healed. I feel like my life has been blessed and miracles happen every day," said Tiwanak.
Tribute to unofficial Mother Marianne miracle through song
In a little more than 24 hours, the canonization ceremony begins in Rome for the sister from Kalaupapa who will become Hawaii's second Saint.

I have had a problem with oversupply and a OALD. My DD would choke and gag really bad. We had some really hard times. She is now 9 weeks old and the only way I have found to feed her that works best is the side lying position. She is now able to handle the OALD, but she is still very gassy and we have problems with green poo (at least 2 diapers a day). She does have at least 1 or 2 yellow diapers a day. I was pumping through letdown, but I felt this was aggrevating the oversupply problem I was having, so I have recently stopped pumping. Do I need to still pump to get rid of a good amount of the foremilk?
Also, is it normal for some days the baby doesn't want to eat very much? We have been on a every 3 hour schedule and she does well with it, but we have had 2 days in the last 2 weeks were she doesn't want to nurse but for about 5 minutes and then she is done. I don't feel like she is eating enough and she is going every 3 hours or sometimes longer on those days.
Another question, I am going back to work in a couple of weeks and I just know now how to work in the pumping. I actually work from home and I have someone that is coming in to watch my DD and she will have to have a bottle at least 3 times during the day. Right now, my DD usually just feeds off one breast at a feeding. When I go to pumping while working, should I pump both breast? I am just confused on how to handle the pumping and making sure I get enough.

Valley Bend Woman faces forgery charges
A Valley Bend woman is facing felony charges after she allegedly forged her mother's signature on 13 checks.
Pamela Thoman, 56, was charged Tuesday with 13 counts of forgery, a felony, and 15 counts of uttering, also a felony, after she allegedly cashed 13 checks from a Davis Trust Co. joint bank account belonging to her and her mother, Denny Ott, without authorization.
According to the criminal complaint in the Randolph County Magistrate Clerk's Office, Trooper D.T. Stallings with the Elkins detachment of the West Virginia State Police received a forgery and uttering complaint originating from a residence on Beck's Road in Valley Bend.
Ott told Stallings that she and her daughter operated a joint checking account, but Thoman wasn't authorized to use or sign checks from the account, the complaint states.
However, Thoman allegedly signed her mother's name to 13 checks and cashed them at a variety of locations in and around the Elkins area between Feb. 9 and 20. The amount Thoman allegedly removed from the account totaled $520.25.
Ott told Stallings, the investigating officer, that she wanted to pursue charges against her daughter, who was lodged in the Tygart Valley Regional Jail for a North Central Community Corrections probation violation.
"They had a joint checking account and (Thoman) wasn't authorized to issue or use any of the checks," Stallings said Tuesday. "Unfortunately that's the way that particular cookie crumbled."
Stallings said Thoman and Ott live together.
When Stallings went to TVRJ to collect a statement from Thoman, Thoman told him she'd taken checks from her mother's checkbook and signed her mother's name to the checks because she knew she couldn't use the checks herself, the complaint states.
Thoman told Stallings she'd cashed the checks at Bob's Mini Mar in Mill Creek, C&J's Restaurant in Valley Bend and Kroger in Elkins.
Magistrate George M. Riggleman set bond at $25,000 cash or surety, and as of presstime, Thoman remained in the TVRJ.
The penalty for each count of forgery and each count of uttering is confinement in the state penitentiary for one to 10 years, or, in the discretion of the court, confinement in a regional jail for up to one year and a fine of up to $500.

PwC agrees with most of the proposed criteria that would comprise a definition of a public business entity.
In our comment letter on the proposed ASU, Definition of a Public Business Entity, an Amendment to the Master Glossary, we agree with most of the proposed criteria that would comprise a definition of a public business entity.
However, we have a concern with the criterion "other entities whose financial statements or financial information are required to be or are included in a filing." Based on that criterion, a private company could be considered public business entity as a result of an acquisition or investment by a public company, in which case the private company's historical financial statements would be required to be prepared pursuant to the public company requirements. Preparers could face significant challenges in unwinding previously elected private company accounting alternatives.
We recommend that the board focus on the complexities created in financial reporting for both public and private companies in circumstances where the "status" of a private company changes due to such events. In doing so, we encourage the board to continue to collaborate with the SEC staff to ensure that unintended consequences (for example, the possibility that a public company could effectively be precluded from acquiring a private company due to an inability to comply with the financial reporting requirements) are assessed in circumstances where US GAAP and SEC reporting requirements intersect.
In addition, the term "unrestricted securities" conveys an important distinction in the proposed criteria, but it is not defined in US GAAP. We recommend that this term be included in the Master Glossary.

A very good, soft cleanser
Posted by ShokoFlomel on Mar 10, 2014
This cleanser is wonderful. It purifies skin very gently leaving your face clean and soft. It doesn't dry skin in the least. The cleanser looks like gel with particles but particles don't scratch skin. This stuff is ideal for me. It does its job well, well-designed for usage as you just press on the top and get the amount of stuff you need.
Posted by doppelganger on Aug 23, 2013
It is a non-drying,of a gel/yogurt consistency product.The beads are not rought and you get a good cleanse.I use it in the morning and I very much enjoy the fresh,energising smell!

This not too foaming cleanser removes light makeup as stated. It didn't dry out my skin. I liked it!
Excelent product
Posted by Reviewer1964855 on Nov 02, 2013
This Facial cleanser is very effective. Great to clean all your makeup and for gently exfoliating. I wear it everyday and haven't had a problem. Plus you save money because you don't have to buy an exfoliator. (Avoid using it in the eye area).
Fantastic Facial Cleanser
Posted by 5276561412170853548 on Jan 11, 2014
Removes makeup like a dream yet very gentle on the skin. Absolutely adore this product!
Mild but effective
Posted by LovelyHoney on May 16, 2014
I really love this cleanser, it is so mild that it doesn't strip the skin natural oils, but cleanses so good. The scent is very citrusy, like fresh oranges, it also has a little bit of small exfoliating particles, but it isn't harsh. I even rub some around my eyes and it doesn't irritate them. I simply love it!

Good as it is chemical free and pure. However, finishes quite fast. The content is quickly depleted as it is a small bottle.

Hi everyine,
I am a massive supporter of breastfeeding and have fed all three of my kids( my older two just for 6 months). My youngest is almost two and it's at the point now I feel I need to stop feeding him. My youngest, unlike my two older kids, does not have a bedtime routine .. we tried and co sleeping worked well as the only way he'll sleeps is in my bed with me nursing him to sleep. If I'm not there he'll not sleep if I get up after he falls asleep he'll get up.. and this is how it continues... He will feed through thye night some nights others not but I get no sleep as he moves around the bed and often end up upside down under the covers and this frightens me. He has his own bed in his own room and won't sleep in it.
It's got to the point now where it's just a pain for me. I have no time way from him. I have no quality time with my older kids. I can't get a night out with my husband.. I have not had a decent night sleep since he was born. I am tired and impatient and that is no good for any of us. I am starting to feel trapped and this is not how I want to remember nursing my last baby. Bedtime can be nursing him to try and get him to sleep from 8 to 2am
I am self employed and a lot of my appointments are supposed to be in the evenings. I often have to cancel as my son will not settle for anyone only me. He was almost day weaned until about a month ago when he contracted croup now wants milk most of the day too.
He is a strong willed little bub and he hit bites, headbutts, nips and screams until you just give in.
All the I can deal with if I just didn't have to feed him at night.
I know it's not his fault it's what we have taught him, but it need to change. My son does not nap during the day and will not just fall asleep in the evening. I have come back from work the odd time to find him still awake and waiting for me at 1am.
That can't be good for him or me... I need some advice. Please don't tell me he will self wean. I don't think he wants to but I need to do something to make life a little easier for all my family.
Any advice would be helpful!!!!

Canine howling may leave project in doghouse
Decibel levels of barking and howling Alaskan Huskies and the high-pitched noise of snowmobiles were some of the concerns brought up by the half a dozen neighbors who spoke against a proposed commercial dog sledding and snowmobiling business at a public hearing on January 22, while the potential of boosting employment and helping the economy were two points brought up by the potential proprietor of said business.
Mike Mancino, owner of Vanderbeek Farm, told the Lackawaxen Board of Supervisors that if his plan in its entire scope was brought to fruition, the small, rural town could expect six snowmobile rides a day and 81 outings of dog sledding at 10 minutes apiece.
Chairman of the supervisors, Brian Stuart, said, "A lot of people in this room are concerned about the decibel level, not that I want to put words in people's mouths."
A scant 15 minutes later, when the floor was open to the half a dozen residents near the farm, the noise factor, estimated to top 110 decibels by the dogs as well as the snowmobiles, was front and center.
Blaise Major was probably the most succinct when he said, "Dogs make a heck of a lot of noise, not to mention the problems that would arise if the dogs were to get loose."
Those in attendance were surprised that a howling dog's decibel level is the same as a snowmobile. The town ordinance allows for a decibel level of 65.
Perhaps Marilyn Nalesnik compiled the most comprehensive list of objections to the proposed business. "I'm all for inspiring growth within reason to Lackawaxen, but we have to have overall harmony with the rural and peaceful setting that residents treasure here," she said.
She touched on the sheer danger of snowmobiles and asked the board hypothetically if Mancino and his staff would have to be trained in CPR and have knowledge about American Red Cross procedures. On the upside, she did acknowledge that such a business would encourage the "young to stay."
Mancino said that he stands on his record as a patriot who was awarded the Wayne Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution Flag Certificate for showing patriotism with flags that adorn his place of business and others for those who have served in the armed forces.
Speaking to the issue at hand, he said he feels a deep sense of pride, too, in Lackawaxen and the area in which his family has lived since 1920. The economy, he said, is still on the mend, and his project would offer jobs and steady employment.
When Mancino and some of the residents became embroiled in a back-and- forth exchange, Stuart said that residents could not ask questions, rather, they should merely voice concerns.
Stuart told Mancino to "quantify and qualify" his proposal, to outline the type of snowmobiles he proposes to use and the kind of dogs that would pull the sleds. Mancino said he would use Alaskan Huskies, a dog that has a good disposition. A town ordinance states that dogs may not stay outside, which is what this breed prefers; the dogs would have to stay in a kennel on the property overnight.
Vanderbeek Farms, opened in 2007, at present offers English, Western and pleasure riding lessons. It features an 80-foot by 20-foot indoor riding facility, a 100-foot by 200-foot outdoor riding facility and has nearly completed a 150-foot by 300-foot outdoor riding facility.
Mancino was instructed to have his information collected by February 25, when there will be a public hearing on the proposal.

Spiders vs. Atoms
As a fan of the Tigers, I saw some pretty amazing catches in center field over the past few years. Granderson has skills, even if he chose to turn them over to the Evil Empire, and Austin Jackson has turned some heads as well. When I was younger, I also got to see Griffey at old Tigers' Stadium when the Mariners came to town and that was nothing short of amazing.
However, all of those pale in comparison with what you're about to see:
And even that looks mundane when compared to what a teammate of his did a couple weeks earlier:
EMBED-Spiderman Style Baseball Catch – Watch more free videos
The only way I can explain these feats of spectacularity is that the team plays in Hiroshima. Hey, if Peter Parker becomes Spiderman because of a radioactive spider, it stands to reason that these guys become baseball's spidermen for the same reason.
Thanks to MW for the link and Big League Stew for the vid.
1 Comment
Wonder if there is a pre-game B P competition with the players to see who can be the most creative in their B P catches?
I could never see a MLB stadium having a wall less than 10 feet high. But maybe the proposed stadiums to be built somewhere in the future in Tampa Bay and San Jose could institute a 6 foot wall and we could see Coco Crisp or maybe even B J Upton hop up on the fence, take a ball firmly into their glove and do that classic "Captain Morgan" pose.

Explainer: Presidential weddings
White House weddings have come a long way from the modest affair of Maria Monroe, the first child to wed while her father was president. Her private nuptials, over 188 years ago, received very little press — just a 34-word mention in a Washington paper.
Flash forward 21 presidential weddings later and Jenna Bush's lavish nuptials at the Bush family's 1,600-acre ranch was an event covered by nearly every outlet.
Only nine were actually wed at the White House: Maria Monroe, John Adams, Elizabeth Tyler, Nellie Grant, Alice Roosevelt, Jessie Wilson, Eleanor Roosevelt, Lynda Bird Johnson, and Tricia Nixon — who had her wedding broadcast live.
In his book "All the Presidents' Children," author and former George H.W. Bush aide Doug Wead expounds on the rich history of White House families.
For a peek at portraits of the first children and their nuptials, click through our interactive.
Jenna Bush
The two met during President Bush's 2004 presidential campaign, where they bonded over their love of the outdoors — a passion that influenced their wedding style.
The couple got married May 10, 2008 at an informal, outdoor affair, at the Bush family ranch in Crawford, Texas.
Dorothy Bush
Married for the second time in 1992 to Robert P. Koch, a former aide to House Democratic leader Richard Gephardt, Dorothy was also the only presidential child to have her nuptials at Camp David.
Trixia Nixon
In fact, Nixon's wedding was so extravagant that her father noted that they needed a seven-foot tall cake just to feed everyone, including the 600 journalists!
Julie Nixon
Julie's wedding was in December, just a few weeks after Nixon had won the presidency.
Julie and Dwight met met at the 1956 Republican National Convention.
The Roosevelts
All of his children would be married while he was in office, and Elliot would be married twice. Eventually, the five Roosevelt children would have 19 marriages between them.
Alice Roosevelt
A controversial figure, Alice was a wild and outspoken woman who smoked, partied and held the personal motto: "If you haven't got anything good to say about anybody, come sit next to me."
Jessie Wilson
Eleanor "Nellie" Wilson, right, would marry a member of her father's own cabinet, William McAdoo, who in 1924, started as the front runner for the Democrat presidential nomination.
Nellie Grant
Grant, who worshipped his daughter, had his eyes to the floor and wept throughout the ceremony.

What is going on with Widnes?
Posted 11 January 2013 - 10:48 PM
Posted 11 January 2013 - 10:51 PM
if brown (who should be a fairly cheap), improves them as he should, then yes it should bring in more fans
One major signing - Kevin Brown
Betts for another two years
I'd ask what is going on at widnes!!
Will this really bring in more fans??
Posted 12 January 2013 - 08:09 AM
Spending money we haven't got in a bid to get more bums on seats isnt the answer......the fans need to get behind the club (SOC won't prop us up forever), only with more revenue (plus perhaps clearing some dead wood) can we afford better signings
I for one do think getting rid of the dead wood should've been number one priority.
well said chuffer, we don't want a return to the ###### or bust days at widnes which ended in administration.......it's up to the people of the town to get behind the club and then we can generate the necessary income to sign more and better players.........
100% agree VW. I understand what is happening at the club, youngsters are the future, some great prospects at Widnes.
The question is how long before they make the grade and are the fans patient enough to wait??
I wish you good luck and enjoy your season, you've only got us twice this season
if brown (who should be a fairly cheap), improves them as he should, then yes it should bring in more fans
Not sure ow brown would be cheap??
One player doesn't make a team, but you're right, brown will improve you.
The reason I'm surprised by one big signing only, is more due to widnes previously trying / offering a large contract to DL before he retired.
IMHO it's going to a long time for widnes to build on the crowds and the present squad will not bring the fans in..... Soc needs to bring another 1 or 2 in now.
My opinion...... Have a great season you chemics

If you're reading this, Paul, good luck to you in whatever you do in the future.
Posted 12 January 2013 - 11:15 AM
I'm not inclined to believe the story, but that is partially because I can't imagine that after only 1 year in SL, there would have been a plan for Widnes to be self financing or hitting halfway up the league.
If you look at Catalan as the best case senario, it took them 2 years of scrapping around at the bottom building a competitive side to really give it a go in their 3rd season.
It's all about da bass

thats the whole idea of licensing, allowing a club to build over 3 years rather than panic buys and going bust in an effort to avoid relegation like in the old days of p&r..............
Some deluded fans looking at Widnes message board and they love a moan. What are the expectations in terms of league finish?

I think most sane people would expect no more than second or third from bottom this year, then perhaps in year three we would hope to come close to the play offs
It would be nice to see them do well but they need to strengthen but to do that need bums on seats

Freedom New Mexico
The annual Home and Garden Show begins Saturday, running through Sunday and promises a full house of vendors, products and ideas.
With something for the whole family, organizer Todd Farrell said this year about 50 percent of the 78 vendors who have signed on to show products are new and the show will fill the entire Clovis Civic Center.
Farrell said he thinks diversity will make the show unique this year. Vendors hailing from communities throughout the region will be on hand to present home and garden products and everything in between, from chocolate, candles and free child identification kits to items to fit personal needs.
"I think there's something for both male and female and different age groups," Farrell said.
From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, demonstrations will be held in the center ballroom showcasing everything from cooking to cleaning and recognizing harmful insects in the home.
Last year, turnout at the show, sponsored by the Home Builder's Association of Eastern New Mexico, was about 3,500 people. Farrell said he would like to see more than 4,000 this year.

Lang digs up dirt against Tusten Community Garden; Alleged ethics violations unearthed
April 11, 2013 —
Before the Tusten Town Board meeting on April 9, an email from Councilman Ned Lang had circulated, bringing up charges against the Tusten Heritage Community Garden and Big Eddy Farmstand project, a project run by Andrea Reynosa, Lang's opponent in the November election.
During the meeting in the town hall, Reynosa read her report from the Tusten Local Development Corporation (TLDC), as usual, and once she finished Lang brought up the charges and explained them.
He said, "It came to light that the employees [of the garden] were paid as independent contractors and had no deductions taken from their pay, which is a huge violation of New York State and Federal Department of Labor law."
In his email he stated, "In order for someone to qualify as an independent contractor there are very strict rules, such as the independent contractor has to set their own hours, behavioral control, financial control as well as many other aspects that separates employees from independent contractors."
He also called into question the fact that Reynosa had moved work from the community garden behind the library to property on her farm as there was an issue with getting water to the garden. He said this raises issues of ethics, as Reynosa was on the town board and paid the employees for work on her property.
He said he has contacted the IRS out of Binghamton, and they are looking into it. "We want transparency," Lang said. "We want to know exactly what happened and we want an audit."
Supervisor Carol Ropke Wingert responded that before they started the garden they had contacted their accountants, Cooper, Neimann & Co., and found that it was fine to issue 1099s, for those who worked at the garden. She said, "We more than welcome an audit; we've got nothing to hide and we've always been about transparency and open government."
Town attorney Jeffrey Clemente, who sits at the table with the board, chimed in and said that nothing wrong was done in regards to paying those who worked on the garden. "Everything that Mr. Lang said is fictitious," he said. "He's been trying to sell this nonsense all last year. It's a community garden where a bunch of high school kids voluntarily assisted and were compensated based on vouchers that they put in; in no sense were they employees. And none of this had anything to do with the town."
He went on to say about Lang, "This is just another one of his political moves in his quest to keep running for office rather than governing the town."
Lang retorted, "Mr. Clemente, as usual, is wrong."

Perelman Offers Families Assistance Program
Perelman Jewish Day School is launching a new financial assistance program aimed at helping families who make too much to qualify for other aid packages but still struggle to afford the private school tuition.
Families who make an adjusted gross income of between $150,000 and $350,000 and want to enroll at the elementary school, which has campuses in Melrose Park and Wynnewood, are eligible for the new grants. This year, tuition costs between $15,000 and $20,000, depending on the grade.
The program is open to both new and current families. Parents can receive grants annually ranging from $1,800 to $30,000 depending on their income and the number of children they send to the school. For example, a family that makes $150,000 to $175,000 annually could qualify for a $5,000 grant if they enroll one child or a $20,000 grant if they enroll two.
Money for the program is coming from funding that Perelman got as part of the agreement to merge its Saligman Middle School with the Jack M. Barrack Hebrew Academy middle school in Bryn Mawr, according to school president Tracey Specter.
Perelman is projecting that the financial assistance will attract additional children to boost enrollment and that, by the fourth year of the program, it will be self-sufficient, according to Specter.
The school is also introducing a $5,000 incentive grant for new families enrolling for the first year through its Cozen Scholars Program, which is funded by Sandy and Steve Cozen. The income qualifications for the Cozen program are the same as for tuition affordability grants.

Melnikova will leave Oct. 25 to start as town manager of Laurel Park, a 2,200-person community in Henderson County.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs a great opportunity for me to continue my town management career in Western North Carolina,ŌĆØ said Melnikova, who is a Franklin native.
She has worked for the town of Waynesville since 2006 when she started as an intern while still earning her masterŌĆÖs degree in public affairs at Western Carolina University. Two years later, Waynesville leaders created the position of assistant town manager just for Melnikova.
As assistant town manager, Melnikova took over duties that did not fall neatly under a departmentŌĆÖs purview. Waynesville Town Manager Marcy Onieal praised MelnikovaŌĆÖs work.
ŌĆ£Alison (Melnikova) is extremely versatile, very sharp,ŌĆØ Onieal said.
Melnikova has worked on many projects during her seven years with the town, including overseeing the skate park project and recent changes to WaynesvilleŌĆÖs Internet system.
ŌĆ£Her imprint is on many projects,ŌĆØ Onieal said. ŌĆ£She has been very much a behind-the-scene contributor.ŌĆØ
Waynesville leaders are currently reviewing the job duties of the assistant town manager and will start advertising the opening this week. It is also still looking to fill its town clerk position. Former Town Clerk Phyllis McClure left earlier this year, and Melnikova had helped cover some of the town clerk functions.

Watch Al shahroura episode 1 online on the web. Serie Al shahroura directly for free. Al shahroura an Egyptian series on en.tvonline-live.com during Ramadan! Watch all episodes of Al shahroura.
The role of Sabah was perfectly performed by Lebanese Singer Carole Samaha who has delved deeply into the personality of Sabah.
Singer and actress Carole Samaha acknowledges that she was concerned by the difference in look between her and Sabah since viewers are first impressed by the resemblance. Yet, as she went deep into impersonating Sabah, she melted into her spirit as we can see that the internal resemblance prevails.
The series sheds lights on some incidents that encountered Sabah during her singing career like the time she lost her voice at the stage or the time that she was expelled from Egypt and deprived from the Egyptian nationality. "Al Shahroura" points out to Sabah's relations with political leaders such as Jamal Abdul Naser, Anwar Al Sadat and many others…
In respect to certain figures who preferred to keep their names unrevealed, writer Fidaa' Al Shendelawi, wrote down Fairouz under the name of Roz, Assi Al Rahbani under the name of Asem and Said Freiha under the name of Saiid.
Head of Sabbah production house Sadeq Al Sabbah stressed that choosing the biography of Sabah is due to the echoing presence of this legend in Lebanon, Egypt and the Arab world.
This production is worth to be seen. It is a bridge that connects the Lebanese and Egyptian drama, he concluded.
"Al Shahroura" is expected to make a resounding success during Ramadan exclusively in Iraq on en.tvonline-live.com!

What is in this article?:
- What caused the global food crisis?
- Primary causes
- The recent ups, downs, and back ups of the agricultural commodity markets have everyone trying to figure out what is behind the wide price swings of the past four years.
- Potential, oft-mentioned causes make for a very long list. Do all these "causes" belong on the list? Which ones are of most importance?
The recent ups, downs, and back ups of the agricultural commodity markets have everyone trying to figure out what is behind the wide price swings of the past four years. The October 2006 close on the Chicago Board of Trade nearby futures was $2.32 per bushel. By July 2008, just 20 months later, the close was $7.24, a 212 percent increase. Eight months later, the February 2008 close was $3.5075, a drop of 52 percent. Corn prices then began to turn around reaching an October 2010 close of 5.82, 150 percent above the price four years earlier. Soybeans, wheat and rice have followed similar, but more muted paths.
Potential, oft-mentioned causes for this market behavior have included: the increased use of corn to produce ethanol, a growing middle class in China and India demanding a diet that includes more meat, increases in the price of crude oil, the growing impact of index funds in the futures market, low interest rates, changes in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar, market intervention by various countries in response to food riots, a declining rate of growth in grain production, and a reduction in the stock levels of various grains. That is quite a list. Do all these "causes" belong on the list? Which ones are of most importance?
An IFPRI (International Food Policy Research Institute) Research Monograph, Reflections on the Global Food Crisis: How did it happen? How has it hurt? And how can we prevent the next one?, by Derek Headey and Shenggen Fan and released in November 2010, wades into these issues, http://www.ifpri.org/sites/default/files/publications/rr165.pdf.
The study was "finalized in early 2010" and does not reflect the recent upward movement of agricultural commodity prices. One of the overriding concerns of the study is the impact of sharp changes in agricultural prices on impoverished people.
As the authors write: "Many impoverished people depend on food production for their livelihoods, and all poor people spend large portions of their household budgets on food. Sharply rising prices offer few means of substitution and adjustment, especially for the urban poor, so there are justifiable concerns that millions of people may be plunged into poverty by this crisis, and that those who are already poor may suffer further through increased hunger and malnutrition."

The trustees toured the elementary school Thursday, June 26, during a regular meeting, and the school building's settling and shifting, causing gaps between the building's cinder blocks, was apparent to all.
The building, only six years old and funded by a 2005 $5 million bond issue, looks beautiful from outside, but once inside, things turned ugly.
Temporary classrooms are being leased tis summer and will be located around the existing elementary school until the elementary school repairs begin.
Trustees during a discussion of the district's budget and expenditures focused on the cost of a lawsuit the district has.
"The big thing draining us is the elementary school," said Superintendent Jack Gaskins.
The district had an estimated ending fund balance of $2.61 million.
"We never go below $3 million. We are below our mark," Gaskins said.
He added that the people who built the elementary school, who the district has a lawsuit against, should do the right thing and fix it.
Gaskins pointed out that the district's maintenance and operating budget would not be able to sustain fixing the elementary school building.
He said the district will have to go to the Interest and Sinking budget, and that means the option of a bond issue.
"We could take it to the taxpayers to fix the elementary," he said.
Most probable date for such a bond issue is May 2015.
Trustee Andy Rocha said he wanted to see what the budget is shaping up to be before he votes for increases, including stipends.
Trustee Ethel Garza, referring to salaries and raises, said she thinks the district will have to go with stipends.
Rocha said he mainly was referring to any increases in stipends, not doing away with current stipends.
A district budget will be approved at the end of July.

Cheats and Walkthroughs
Cheats and Walkthroughs
Cheats and Walkthroughs
The planned October 16, 2012 release of BioShock Infinite has been pushed back to February 26, 2013, a message from Irrational Games creative director Ken Levine confirms. He explains that the delay will give the dev team the time that they need to polish everything up and make sure it all works as it should. It also means that we won't be seeing the game at this year's summer trade shows; Levine specifically names E3 and Gamescom as being off the table.
It's a bummer to be sure, but I think we can all agree that we'd rather see BioShock Infinite arrive late and whole than on time and unfinished. The coming holiday 2012 season is jam-packed with some huge titles, so it's not like we'll be wanting for things to play. You can find the full message from Levine reprinted after the jump.
When we announced the release date of BioShock Infinite in March, we felt pretty good about the timing.
Since then, we've come to realize that some specific tweaks and improvements will make Infinite into something even more extraordinary. Therefore, to give our talented team the time they need, we've decided to move the game's release to February 26, 2013. We wanted to let our loyal (and very patient!) fans know this as soon as possible.
I won't kid you: BioShock Infinite is a very big game, and we're doing things that no one has ever done in a first-person shooter. We had a similar experience with the original BioShock, which was delayed several months as our original ship date drew near. Why? Because the Big Daddies weren't the Big Daddies you've since come to know and love. Because Andrew Ryan's golf club didn't have exactly the right swing. Because Rapture needed one more coat of grimy Art Deco.
The same principle now applies to BioShock Infinite.
What does this mean for you? It means a bit more waiting, but more importantly, it means an even better BioShock Infinite. The great can be made greater, and we owe it to both ourselves and to you, our fans, to take this opportunity. Irrational Games is one of those rare developers lucky enough to ask the people who sign the checks: "Hey, can we have a few more of those checks?"
We are also going to hold off on showing BioShock Infinite at the big events of the summer, like E3 and Gamescom. That way, the next time you see our game, it will be essentially the product we intend to put in the box. Preparing for these events takes time away from development, time we're going to use instead to get the best version of Infinite into your hands in February.

Since returning home, I have been "digging out" and now only my chaotic desk is left as a "no-man's land." I do have an empty waste paper container, actually two, ready for excavation, but I got side-tracked with this Sunday Synopsis --- Tis the way of my life, sidetracked.
Goals for this week, in addition to desk excavation, include:
* Write a story for the Ranch Years to read at my Tuesday Critique group;
* Organize my Uncle Ralph's Letters project for the final push for a final draft;
* Transcribe, make notations, and submit an Amanuensis Monday blog post.
I started to make a longer list of weekly goals, but this is enough --- if more writing and blog post flow -- so be it.

When Volkswagen's Amarok ute launched earlier this year it was heaped with praise and Car and SUV was impressed by its ability on, and off the tarmac. But without an automatic transmission option the Amarok was always going to miss out on some sales in NZ.
Now, VW has announced that the Amarok will be available with an 8-speed automatic transmission from the mid 2012. The new gearbox is expected to be a smooth unit that will assist with overall fuel economy figures for the 1-tonne ute.
The automatic transmission will work with the Amarok's permanent four-wheel drive and new 132kW/420Nm Twin Turbo TDI engine. Amaroks with the new automatic gearbox will also have an increased towing capacity of 3.2 metric tonnes (up to 12% gradient).
With the auto box the TDI engine will work even more effectively in every rev range, and 8th gear has been configured as a fuel-saving overdrive gear that operates at reduced engine speed.
The new automatic transmission with its maximum torque of 420 Newton metres offers a top speed of 179 km/h and takes just 8.5 seconds to accelerate from 80 to 120 km/h. Towing capacity has been increased to 3.2 metric tonnes (up to 12% gradient). Continue reading "VW Amarok 8-speed auto transmission arriving next year" »

During the summer my husband, my self and our children often find different ways to spend time together. In one picture we had visited his grandfathers cottage (who is no longer living) - with my camera I noticed a silence with the children and my husband as they looked off to the beauty the water and sky provided. I am a huge fan of "in the moment" photos. If a picture could speak, I am sure that this photo would tell a story.. I often wonder what was going through their mind.. its looks peaceful.
My children love hanging out with their dad, so fishing was a perfect time to be one with nature. The kids had a blast and yet again I got an "in the moment" photo.. One that shows how happy they all are and one that shows our children proud to be just like their dad.
Water safari is a place we go every August, its our daughters birthday gift and she always takes her best friend. Although this one was not "in the moment", It does tell quite the story .. Maybe one that says we are all about laughs and not a care in the world can take that from us..

Inflation Protection: I Savings Bonds
I Bonds are accrual securities, which means that you do not receive interest payments (coupon income) until you redeem the bonds. But taxes on interest can be deferred until the bonds are redeemed or until maturity-that is, for up to 30 years. In addition, interest income is exempt from state and local taxes.
The earnings rate of I Bonds is a combination of two separate rates: a fixed rate of return, and a variable semiannual inflation rate. The fixed rate is set when the bonds are initially sold, and it remains the same throughout the life of the bond. But the semiannual inflation rate adjustment is reset every six months, based on the CPI-U.
In the unlikely event that deflation were to occur, the value of the bond would remain at its pre-deflation level. The combined rate does not simply add the two rates: They are combined according to a complex formula explained on the Treasury's Web site.
Share this article
I Bonds have several major advantages:
- The value of the I Bonds rises at the rate of inflation.
- Furthermore, the interest rate set at the time of issue guarantees a minimum return.
- Most importantly, however, because I Savings Bonds do not trade in the secondary market, the value of I Bonds can never go down. The value of TIPS, on the other hand, fluctuates in the secondary market and could conceivably decline below the issue price.
I Bonds have a maturity of 30 years, but they can be redeemed any time after 12 months. Because these bonds are structured primarily as long-term investments, there is a small penalty for redeeming I Bonds within five years of purchase: You would forfeit three months of interest if you cash out your bonds within five years.
Since no taxes are payable until the bonds are actually cashed in, they are extremely attractive for building up savings for retirement outside of tax-deferred accounts. Their education exclusion also offers an attractive method of saving for future college expenses.
For current interest rates and more information on I Bonds, go to www.treasurydirect.gov.
