Guidance for Staff on Promotion to Readerships and Professorships
1. Foreword from the Vice-Chancellor
"Commitment to academic excellence"
Durham University is one of the UK's leading Universities with a strong commitment to the highest international levels of excellence in research and education. As a leading academic your primary role is within your department, although you have very considerable freedom to enable you to undertake research at the international forefront. This also places obligations on you to take personal responsibility for developing your role, and to show excellence in leadership in working with your students, your academic colleagues and the professional support services staff. You are also expected to engage with students and academic colleagues outside your immediate discipline through membership of a College Senior Common Room.
Durham University has the highest expectations of all its academic staff at every stage of their career, as individuals and as part of an educational community. Your colleagues expect every individual to make a sustained contribution at the highest level to research and education, and to the University community.
To be promoted to a Readership or a Professorship we therefore expect you to provide evidence which demonstrates your sustained and substantial experience and abilities as a teacher and as a leading independent researcher, at a world class level, addressing major research questions which ensure that all of your research outputs and outcomes will be recognised internationally leading.
You will also be expected to demonstrate how you have met the requirements of delivering learning and teaching at a senior level to the standards expected by Academic Progression Committee. This includes offering teaching that is research-led and this and your research supervision is underpinned by a reflective approach to enhancing significantly the learning experience of your students. Finally, as a senior member of staff, you will be expected to demonstrate leadership both within our University community and also externally in promoting the interests of the University.
Professor Stuart Corbridge
Vice-Chancellor and Warden
2. Promotion
The number to be promoted to Readerships and Professorships in any one year is not subject to any quota but is determined in the light of the quality and quantity of applications as well as broader financial considerations.
Promotion to a Readership or a Professorship is an acknowledgement that the majority of your work is at least internationally excellent in terms of originality, significance and rigour with a substantial number of outputs at the level of world-leading in terms of originality, significance and rigour (see paragraph 7, Research), that you have a sustained track record of publishing at this level and demonstrate the potential to continue to do this into the foreseeable future.
Promotion to a Readership is a mark of personal distinction to members of staff who have made a distinguished contribution to the advancement of their discipline, by way of original research and/or innovative application. The award recognises a member of staff's high international reputation resulting from their research. The reputation may be further judged by some or all of the following:
- invitations to present conference papers;
- editorships of learned journals;
- requests to referee the work of other scholars;
- membership of national and international bodies relevant to the research field;
- contribution to the work of professional societies;
- citations by other researchers and practitioners;
- prizes and awards; and
- referees' reports.
Success in attracting external funding is generally necessary for the award of a Readership. While outstanding research can be done by an individual working alone and without the benefit of research grants, staff are normally expected to have competed successfully for external research income.
Whilst emphasis is laid on the quality of research, qualities as a teacher and leadership in education will also be taken into account in assessing a member of staff for the award. An application for a Readership therefore requires you to demonstrate how you have met the requirements of delivering learning and teaching to the standards expected by Academic Progression Committee. Applicants who simply make their case for a Readership on the basis of research achievements alone will not be recommended for promotion to a Readership.
The award of the title and status of Professor is a mark of personal distinction to a member of staff who has made an outstanding contribution to original research over a significant period of time, and is widely and internationally recognised as a distinguished authority in their field with a scholarly reputation over and above that expected of a Reader.
The University does not have Research Professors whose contracts exclude them from teaching our students and/or providing leadership in education. Durham's commitment to research-led teaching requires that all academic staff contribute not only to research but also to our teaching and student experience, albeit to different extents.
Candidates must therefore be able to demonstrate ample evidence of academic leadership both in research and teaching. An application for a Professorship therefore requires you to demonstrate how you have met the requirements of delivering learning and teaching to the standards expected by Academic Progression Committee. Applicants who simply make their case for a Professorship on the basis of research achievements alone will not be recommended for promotion to a Chair. Whilst comparability is often difficult, candidates for the award of a Chair should stand comparison with those awarded a Chair at other leading universities of international standing.
Newly promoted professors are likely to be recognised as distinguished academics who have demonstrated the research, educational and associated requirements as set out in the Durham criteria for promotion to a Chair. Their CV will demonstrate an appropriate combination of some or all of the following activities and outputs, considered in the context of excellence in their own discipline.
- Research outputs and impact recognised in terms of originality, significance and rigour, reflecting an international standing in their area/discipline
- Academic leadership in beginning to shape the future of their discipline
- Effective management, helping to enhance excellence in their Department, Faculty or the University as a whole.
- Proven track record of successful PhD supervision;
- Demonstrable leadership in winning external funding for their research and building research teams, internally and/or externally;
- Membership of national or international policy-making bodies, review panels and advisory boards, funding councils, editorial boards or other equivalent bodies;
- Working with professional practice at a national level and scholarly manner
- Excellent record of achievement in research-led teaching, demonstrated by student feedback and which may also include teaching awards and/or the publication of major textbooks.
Submissions for promotion are considered by the University's Academic Progression Committee. Promotions are normally determined in order of Readerships and then Professorships.
3. Workload
You are expected to have a full and balanced academic load commensurate with your role as a leading academic, and this may require you to teach subjects within your discipline but which are not central to your personal research. You are also expected to play a full role within your Department, undertaking service and promoting the University internally and externally when requested to do so.
4. Mentoring and Support
While mentoring may be thought mainly to apply just to those at the start of their careers, it can also prove highly beneficial throughout working life, and particularly following promotion or taking on a new role. You may find it helpful to consider the benefits of different approaches to mentoring by visiting the University's mentoring website at https://www.dur.ac.uk/hr/mentoring/
Heads of Departments, Directors of Research and Directors of Learning & Teaching are regarded as an integral part of the peer review process, and as such they have responsibilities to provide both positive and negative feedback in order to help staff develop their careers. Before submitting a case for promotion, it is advisable to seek and act on advice from these postholders.
As a leading academic you are also expected to be active in supporting, mentoring and developing the careers of your academic colleagues, and this may be through formal appointment as an academic mentor.
5. Annual Staff Review
You will have an Annual Staff Review (ASR) meeting with a reviewer assigned by your head of department, who has formal responsibility for the conduct of ASRs within your department. Your Head of Department will see your full review report and may wish to discuss it with you.
An integral part of the review is the completion of a Personal Research Plan which you are required to complete as part of your ASR. This has been introduced to enhance and support the strategic planning of research within research groups and departments, to ensure that individual research trajectories are in line with departmental strategy, and to ensure that the research environment within departments is supportive and responsive to the needs of academic staff. In line with the principles of the ASR process, the focus of the Personal Research Plan is developmental for both individuals and departments.
The ASR meeting with your reviewer will provide an opportunity for you to discuss your role and to highlight any development you require to help you carry out your role. The ASR will also provide you with feedback on your performance and an opportunity to agree priorities for the coming year. The ASR procedure supplements more regular reviews of progress, performance, and support.
If you have concerns about the level of support you require or are receiving, you should raise this straightaway rather than wait for your ASR meeting.
As a senior academic it is expected that you will act as an ASR Reviewer of the work and progress of other staff in your department. This is a serious responsibility which if done well will be of benefit to you as well as the member(s) of staff whose ASR you are tasked to conduct. You should be making full use of the Annual Staff Review process to develop your personal research plans, as well as using ASR to provide support and advice as appropriate to your research group to maximise the benefit to their research career of opportunities available in Durham.
Reviewers are obliged to undertake training so that they have the necessary skills to conduct annual reviews and you will find details of courses on the University's HR website.
6. Research
You are expected to undertake research of the highest quality and to publish regularly in appropriate outputs for your discipline. The emphasis is on ambition of research questions and quality and impact of output. Your research-assessment submissible research outputs are required to be internationally excellent in terms of originality, significance and rigour with a substantial number recognised as world-leading in terms of originality, significance and rigour, and you should demonstrate the potential for continuing to produce the majority of your work at least at the level of internationally excellent or world-leading, as defined in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework, i.e.
Quality that is world-leading in terms of originality, significance and rigour
Quality that is internationally excellent in terms of originality, significance and rigour but which falls short of the highest standards of excellence
You should make extensive use of your knowledge of the UK and international research funding landscape, and have achieved a significant number of research grants. You should be playing a full part in developing a research environment within your department, including for example membership of your Departmental research committee, and within Research Institutes where appropriate.
Our expectations of you are therefore that you will:
a. produce appropriate research outputs that are recognised internationally in terms of originality, significance and rigour;
b. regularly publish research or produce other outputs in a form suitable for the REF or other equivalent peer review, with careful planning to maximise its quality and the communication of its outcome and impact;
c. ensure that publications referred to in your promotion application are uploaded to Durham Research Online and/or included in your web profile - see further guidance in Section 10;
d. make a significant contribution in terms of research impact and outcome;
e. contribute significantly towards recruiting and winning support for research students, and demonstrate excellence in the supervision of your research students, ensuring successful completion of research degrees within required timescales and ensuring the quality of their wider development and training.
f. apply for appropriate research funding in support of your research, individually and/or collaboratively, and have demonstrable success in winning external research funding competitively and through peer review on a sustained basis;
g. contribute in a sustained manner to the research life and culture of your department or School or Institute, for example through collegial behaviour such as participating in research workshops or attracting distinguished academic visitors to your department;
h. lead and manage successfully your research, research projects or programmes, mentoring, supporting and promoting the development of early career researchers and other colleagues, and building up a research group or demonstrate teamworking, demonstrating a contribution to the wider planning of research through department, faculty, centre or institute;
i. contribute more widely to the development of your subject, through a combination of regular presentations to national and international conferences, invitations to give key lectures, membership of peer review panels and major Research Council and other funding organisations'committees, or editorial responsibilities relating to major journals or reviewing research papers and applications;
j. engage directly with non academic external organisations or users to transfer your knowledge and expertise for cultural, societal and/or economic benefit and so contribute under the 'impact' heading in REF, and to use the experience you find there to enrich your research agenda;
k. make extensive use of Research Council and other funding bodies' policies and research funding mechanisms, including international and collaborative research funding opportunities;
l. show evidence of external recognition of research quality, for example by the award of relevant honours, prizes or higher doctorates.
7. Education
You will be expected to set the highest standards in learning and teaching, linking research and education in distinctive and creative ways to provide a unique and stimulating environment for our students to learn and develop their full potential. Your application for promotion must provide empirical evidence of this.
As Professor you are expected to have and continue to play a senior leadership role in design, delivery and organisation of learning and teaching within the University. APC recognise leadership will take many forms, but this might include: leading a review of a programme or developing a new undergraduate or postgraduate programme, department-wide quality enhancement intiatives eg introducing new or diverse assessment methods, or improvements to feedback methods, contributing to University, national and international level policy making on learning and teaching or contributions to subject centres.
Our expectations of you are therefore that you will:
a. undertake teaching which is research-led and intellectually challenging to your students at both undergraduate and postgraduate level, including research supervision, helping to contribute to a distinctive student experience which develops and hones employability skills and attributes, such as teamwork, creativity, leadership social responsibility;
b. undertake teaching when required of subjects within your discipline but which are not central to your personal research or research plans;
c. be readily accessible to your students concerning teaching and assessment and if appropriate agree means by which to have regular contact if away from Durham;
d. support, including mentoring where appropriate, and help to develop the highest standards in learning and teaching amongst your academic colleagues;
e. reflect on feedback from your students to improve your teaching, and contribute to curriculum development where practicable;
f. be innovative in learning and teaching, and assessment methods, incorporating available technology where appropriate;
g. undertake examinations work and course assessment as directed by your head of department or School, and contribute within your department or School to the development and conduct of fair and transparent assessment;
h. provide appropriate feedback, support and guidance to students;
i. demonstrate continuing professional development in academic practice;
j. actively contribute to your discipline and be part of the Durham scholarly community.
8. Good citizenship and conduct
As one of the most senior members of Durham's academic community, you are expected to adhere to the principles of good citizenship, being generous with your help and support to others and collaborating with your academic colleagues in matters relating to research, learning & teaching, and knowledge transfer, and working for the benefit of your department and the University as a whole.
You will be expected to be a member of a College Senior Common Room and actively promote the academic ethos of the Durham College community. You may also wish to act as a College Tutor.
As a Reader or Professor you are expected to undertake effectively and efficiently administrative tasks that are assigned to you by your Head of Department, as well as participate in the governance of the University by putting your name forward to serve on appropriate senior University committees. You are also expected to support and collaborate appropriately with administrative and technical colleagues, making an active contribution to an inclusive community in which diversity is embraced and celebrated.
In every respect you will be an ambassador for Durham University and through your work and conduct you will be expected to enhance Durham's national and international reputation, adhering to the University values and being aware of, and contributing to, the University Strategy.
With this in mind, it is important that you note that certain non-collegial types of conduct are extremely damaging to the good order, performance and morale of a department, school, faculty and across the University, and are unacceptable. Examples of good citizenship and conduct are:
- active engagement with colleagues and accepting delegated responsibilities;
- ready co-operation with legitimate requests;
- creating good working relationships with colleagues and others;
- acceptance of legitimate criticism of conduct or job performance;
- fulfilling commitments; being punctual, notifying sickness absence in good time to avoid disruption to the teaching timetable;
- adherence to the University's policies on equality and diversity and promoting good campus relations and health and safety;
- respect for colleagues at all levels and avoidance of verbal aggression;
- contributing positively to meetings or training events;
- maintaining confidentiality.
Behaviour not in keeping with the above principles of collegiality, if proved, may provide a valid reason for disciplinary action, which may include termination of contract. You are expected to be knowledgeable about University policies which relate to your work and relationships with staff and students and to conduct yourself appropriately.
9. Formal Promotion procedure
The normal promotion route to Reader or Professor is through a recommendation from your Head of Department to the Academic Progression Committee on the basis of agreed factors which apply to standard and fixed-term University- and outside-funded staff.
Promotion is dependent upon individual performance and is not competitive. Promotion is determined by fair, transparent and objective criteria referenced to the University's general role evaluation methodology. There is no separate complement of Readerships and Professorships so that financial criteria are not taken into account. Academic Progression Committee approves academic promotions on behalf of Senate and Council.
If you wish, you may also submit your own case directly to the Secretary to Academic Progression Committee (the University's Director of Human Resources). You should note that if you choose this approach, the Committee will seek the views of your Head of Department on your submission, and he/she will be asked to consult other senior members of your department, in particular the Directors of Research and of Learning & Teaching, as well as your ASR reviewer.
To be promoted to Reader or Professor, the University must be satisfied that you have fulfilled all the expectations and requirements as set out in sections 6, 7, 8 and 9 of this guidance, i.e.
- to have clearly demonstrated independence and originality in your research programme, and
- to have the potential to continue to produce research with outputs and outcomes recognised as internationally-leading, and
- to have offered research-led teaching, demonstrated a reflective approach to enhancing learning & teaching and provided leadership in teaching to the standards expected by the Academic Progression Committee.
Candidates who are re-submitting a case for promotion must also demonstrate that they have acted on feedback from the Committee.
The case for promotion is submitted by your Head of Department and, if appropriate, your Head of House.
The submission from your Head of Department should include:-
- your completed Evidence for Progression and Promotion pro-forma;
- a statement of the quality of your research and teaching;
- consistent with the evidence, a clear recommendation.
To help your Head of Department prepare his/her submission, you are expected to provide
- a detailed account of your work in the pro-forma set out in Evidence for Progression and Promotion.
- specifically, details of your future research and learning & teaching plans.
- the name and contact details of 3 referees from other universities or research centres, one at least of whom should be from outside the UK.
Your Head of Department will also be asked to provide the names of three external referees to provide an assessment. Faculty PVCs are tasked with choosing an appropriate mix of referees from the UK and internationally. You should not send or seek to provide unsolicited references or statements of support with the required documentation supporting your case.
Before submitting the case your Head of Department has to consult members of your department as appropriate. It will be for the Head of Department concerned to select the appropriate members in each case, but in all cases he/she is expected to consult your ASR reviewer. You should let your Head of Department know if there are particular members of staff whom you think it is important to consult. Your Head of Department's submission will also be signed by your Department's Directors of Research and of Learning & Teaching.
Faculty PVCs are full members of the Academic Progression Committee, and following the meeting of the Committee, it is the responsibility of Faculty PVCs to provide detailed feedback to candidates as a form of academic mentoring.
10. Promotion/Probation Open Access Requirements
Important: this message supersedes all previous advice on this subject
Making research available in an open access format is increasingly a requirement of many funding bodies and will form an important element of the next REF. It also helps to raise the profile of the breadth and depth of the excellent research conducted by Durham University academics.
In 2013, it was also agreed by Senate and Academic Progressions Committee that, where possible, publications referred to and considered in promotion applications and probation reports must be deposited in the university's institutional repository, Durham Research Online (DRO).
This specifically applies to all peer-reviewed journal articles and conference papers published on or after 1 January 2013. The author's final, accepted peer-reviewed manuscript should be provided within 3 months of the date of acceptance for publication.
Details of journal articles and conference papers published before 1 January 2013 should also appear on the author's Durham University web profile page.
Future promotion applications will only be considered if these requirements have been fulfilled.
As part of the university's wider commitment to open access and the widespread promotion of its excellent research, authors are also strongly encouraged to deposit the final accepted, peer-reviewed manuscript of pre-2013 material in DRO, where possible. However, this is not part of the promotion and probation requirements. The University's Open Access policy can be found at: http://dro.dur.ac.uk/du_oa_policy_summary.pdf
A guide on how to deposit in DRO is available from: http://dro.dur.ac.uk/depositors/dro_depositguide.pdf

Ballard Crime Watch: Dukes of Hazzard make off with safe and gamer grabs gear for game conference
Suspect makes off with goods for a gamer conference
On July 21 at the 8000 block of 21st Avenue Northwest offices were dispatched for a reported burglary. The victim told officers that she knew the suspect. After working away from home all weekend she arrived home where her roommate told her that she saw the suspect moving items into a black sedan from the downstairs window. The victim told officers that she had contacted the suspect and he had admitted to entering the house uninvited and had taken cash. Obviously going to a gamer conference in Belize, the suspect felt he could borrow several purses, jewelry, sunglasses, game consoles, a television, a laptop and cameras. Police searched the area but only found Donkey Kong footprints and PacMan tread.
Dukes of Hazzard take safe in 1970's Chevrolet
July 18, officers were dispatched to a business on the 300 block of Northwest 85th Street where a burglary occurred. A neighbor had reported some suspicious activity at the house. Officers found the glass front door insert completely smash through by a 20-pound rock. Officers found cash register drawers open and store items knocked to the floor. A witness reported that she heard the business alarm go off and she saw a young man run to the passenger's side of a 1970's Chevrolet truck with a safe. The truck driver pinned it and the two fled. The witness then saw another individual in a dark jacket leaving the scene with something under his/her. Officers searched the area but were unable to locate the suspects. SPD were unable to contact the owner of the business, so SFD her called to secure the front door.
Cat-like thief takes purse and laptop
On July 21 SPD responded to a burglary forced entrance at 1100 block of Ninth Avenue Northwest. Officers made contact with the victim who said he awoke and came downstairs to find a back window smashed and his laptop gone. Upon looking around the house, his wife noticed her purse and iPhone were gone too. The victims said they did not hear a sound the night before. Officers dusted for prints but were unable to recover any.

Officer of the Month: Darren Cho 05-02-12
Hawaiʻi Police Department
Office of the Chief
Harry S. Kubojiri
Phone 961-2244
The Kona Crime Prevention Committee recognized Community Policing Officer Darren Cho as "Officer of the Month" for May in a luncheon ceremony on Wednesday (May 2) at Huggo's restaurant in Kailua-Kona.
Cho was honored for his keen observation skills during a routine park check that led to the arrest of a man in possession of drugs and a concealed handgun.
Cho was at Kahaluʻu Beach Park on January 17 and observed a suspicious man wearing a backpack. Cho suspected this person was a man police were seeking on an arrest warrant but the man refused to provide identification or admit who he was. The officer continued to observe the suspect, who eventually removed his shirt to reveal an identifying tattoo.
When Cho arrested the man on the warrant, he witnessed a marijuana joint falling from behind his ear. A subsequent search of the backpack produced crystal methamphetamine, a digital scale and a .22 caliber handgun.
The suspect was charged on the original warrant and with drug and weapons offenses. His bail was set at $30,800.
As "Officer of the Month," Cho is eligible to become "Officer of the Year." The Kona Crime Prevention Committee is an organization that encourages community involvement in aiding and supporting police in West Hawaiʻi.

Camilla, whose father fought in North Africa, met the old soldiers on a trip to remember one of the pivotal battles of the global conflict.
The elderly men were survivors of the fighting on the Kokoda Trail, where Australian and Papua New Guinea forces held off Japanese troops in 1942 as they tried to push through to the nation's capital Port Moresby, which would have been an ideal launch point for an invasion of Australia.
The veterans may have held off the Japanese but to the Duchess, however, they offered no resistance. Len Griffiths, 90, held the Duchess's hand as he flirted with her and when he learnt that her Diamond Jubilee tour would take her to the Australian capital Canberra, he made a cheeky offer: "Oh, I will put you up."
Another, on being told by the Duchess that she would like to visit Western Australia, told her: "I'm not getting any younger - you had better be quick." Afterwards, Mr Griffiths was asked if he had been smitten by the Duchess, smiling bashfully he replied: "Yes, a little bit. She is a charming lady."
The meeting was arranged at the last minute after the royal party discovered the veterans were staying at the same hotel. The Duchess, whose father Major Bruce Shand was captured at the Battle of El Alamein and spent three years as a PoW, said: "I felt I ought to be here because my father was in the war and I know he would have liked to see me here with all of you."
The Prince of Wales and his wife have been visiting Papua New Guinea since Saturday and later on Monday will leave for Australia.
In Australia the royal couple have set themselves the task of visiting four major cities - Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney and Canberra - and the island state of Tasmania in just six days. A royal aide said: "The theme of the Jubilee is service to others and their royal highnesses are determined to meet as many people possible in the time available, which is why we're trying to get around so many states and territories as we possibly can."
Racegoers will see the royal couple at the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday where Camilla, a passionate horse fan like her husband, will present the winning trophy for the prestigious race. Other events will see them highlight healthy eating in schools, meet Australian cricketers playing with disadvantaged youngsters and promote the wool trade.
The final leg to New Zealand, between November 10 and 16, will see the royal couple meet popular children's author Lynley Dodd, writer of the Hairy Maclary stories about the adventures of a hairy dog. Charles will celebrate his 64th birthday in the country on November 14 when he will visit a movie workshop to get a behind the scenes look at the new Hobbit film.

Hyundai Oxendale Flagstaff Misleading Fraudulent Practices, Reneging Promises, No post-Purchase Help! Flagstaff Arizona
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I purchased Hyundai Elantra 2005 used car from this dealer. They usually place very high price and then start bargaining which is fine because you are purchasing a used car. What I really did wrong myself, I did not bring a car mechanic to look at the car and I admit I was goof on that account. I trusted the dealer, and I had to pay for it.
They priced the car for $7,000. I told them that I can give $4,000 for the car they were trying to sell me. The deal ended at $4,200 including taxes. They started reneging from the dealer-benefits such as 3-month post-sale warranty and refused to remove the dents and repair the rear bumper. They even did not change the filter.
You know what? Its engine check light was on. I refused to take the car. The sales person said it is due to our security system because if a car is stolen, it can get check light on and then will go off within 5-mile area. He said we forgot to get it off. They took the car back and then came with checklight off.
It was the best lie they could have made me believe. The check light was on due to genuine reasons. In fact, when I took it to a mechanic for check light and he told me there were almost 13 different parts to be replaced. It did cost me about $3,000 in total. The bill was higher, but I purchased the required items myself, so saved almost $1,500 on that account. My car went to repair for a week, and I was really pissed off.
I have learned a lot from this experience. I will NEVER advise you to purchase any used car from Oxendale Hyundai Flagstaff unless you take a mechanic with you. Do not trust them, as I did. Inspect all the parts in ruthless manner because you are paying to them, and helping them grow their business. Assure you get post-sale warranty, because if they do not give you 3-month post-sale warranty, you should be very cognizant to perceive that there is something really wrong with the car. They mislead you on a number of accounts. They initially told me that the car has 80,530 ODO, you know what? Carfax report said it was not real. So please check all before you make any deal with these guys. Better you should see a dealer where you can find trustworthy people doing nice business with you.

New Adminsitraton, Nice Deal this time!
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, December 02, 2014POSTED: Tuesday, December 02, 2014
I want to update on this report. After running from piller to post to rescue myself from a number of expenses emerging from this highly bad car, I contacted Hyundai USA. They talked to Oxendale and I was able to talk to higher administration. This time, all the staff had been changed and the new staff was very cooperative to understand my concerns and worked wit me to deal with the issue. We agreed to get the car traded in for the value I tagged, and exchange it with another vehicle at the wholesale value.

UPDATE 8:01am PDT: The Fennica attempted to leave for the Arctic but the activists stood firm and it has turned around and headed back to port. They remain after 30 hours.
What's happening?Greenpeace activists have suspended themselves from St. Johns Bridge in Portland, Oregon to block a Shell Oil vessel from leaving port for Alaskan waters. The climbers have enough supplies to last several days, and are prepared to stay in Shell's way as long as possible.
Follow here for breaking updates from the bridge and don't forget to say #ShellNo by telling President Obama to reject Arctic drilling.
Why exactly have these activists chosen to put themselves in between Shell and the Arctic. Good question!

Shell's Arctic drilling fleet is on the move, right now— and was even before the US government approved the final permits. As you read this, Shell is transporting an oil rig, the Polar Pioneer, across the Pacific, bound for the Arctic. And six bold people are following on the Greenpeace ship Esperanza.
From around the world six volunteers — Jens, Johno, Miriam, Andreas, Aliyah and Zoe— are on board the Esperanza making #TheCrossing to act as ambassadors of our movement of millions against Arctic oil drilling.
The six are hoping that we can draw the world's attention to Shell's plans and expose the utter insanity of drilling for oil in the Arctic.
Shell thinks its billions have bought it a free pass to drill in the Alaskan Arctic, but the one thing the company fears most is people power... Read more >
2015 has barely begun, but it has already been called "the most crucial year in decades for the climate battle" and a "watershed" year for sustainable development worldwide. Naomi Klein is convinced that 2015 is a once-in-a-generation moment for the climate battle and Avaaz has just told their supporters that we have ten months left to save the world.
What's going on?
World leaders will meet in September to agree upon new goals for all of humanity: the Sustainable Development Goals. And, in December in Paris, another attempt will be made to deliver a global climate agreement. Both summits will be huge, and will get a lot of media attention. Some of our allies have called them "opportunities of a lifetime" and many, including Pharrell Williams, are starting to organize events to mobilize... Read more >

Mojave 3
The shift away from Slowdive was completed with 1998's Out of Tune. More upbeat in nature, it also featured more involved arrangements. Former Chapterhouse guitarist Simon Rowe was officially added as a member, as well as Alan Forrester on keys. Their full-time presence helped round out the band's sound. At this point, Mojave 3 -- and Halstead's classicist songwriting in particular -- began to earn favorable comparisons to Bob Dylan, Nick Drake, and Neil Young. Excuses for Travellers followed two years later, continuing in similar fashion as something of a hybrid of their first two LPs. Three years came and went -- and were broken up by a Halstead solo album -- before the release of Spoon and Rafter, an album that was recorded throughout the course of a year, at the band's studio in Cornwall. The next bandmember to release a solo record was Goswell, whose 2004 release Waves Are Universal was met with critical and commercial indifference. Perhaps the whole group was feeling this wave of indifference too, because their next record, 2006's Puzzles Like You, threw their formula out and recast them (quite successfully) as an uptempo pop band with the occasional country-influenced ballad. ~ Andy Kellman & Tim Sendra

Day 2 - Bosnia to Montenegro to Kosovo!
Trip Start Dec 23, 2007
267Trip End Ongoing
Day 2 of the 2011 Caucasian Challenge was great. We traveled 488 km through Bosnia, Montenegro and ended the night in Kosovo.
Actually, we almost added Serbia to that list as we relied on our GPS system, not knowing that Montenegro wasn't one of our loaded maps, therefore the system kept trying to direct us through a route it knew...Serbia (with it's ongoing warzone)! Luckily we figured it out before the border, and though it delayed us two hours, we finally found our way and made it to Montenegro. And what a find!
Lesson of the day: Don't rely only on the GPS system!
We had heard terrible rumors about the difficulty of the Kosovoan border, but as we rolled up (and seeing another team stuck there), they looked at our car and race badges and waved us through without checking the car or our passports! Andy thought he heard them mutter K-FOR, which is the Kosovo military, so perhaps we were mistaken for military with our dark green, numbered SUV and "official" badges! It also probably helped that Art was driving as he is often mistaken for military!
Kosovo turned out to be really nice (after you passed the pot-holed, turned-up, destroyed section of the road, that is. :) We eventually put up at the Hotel Peja, had a nice dinner and readied our selves for Day 3!


text: Hello, I own a 2002 suburban which recently has been giving me problems with the drivers side mirror. What I see is multiple images, day or night. It's not my eyes - although that did mess with my head. The mirrors are the self darkening style. I also noticed that the outer portion of the mirror appears tinted now and resembles a ring around the mirror and is about 2 inches wide. I've never come across anything like this and I've worked in automotive for years. I haven't really dug into the problem yet but figured I would ask just to see if anyone else has ever seen this before. Thanks!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything that you recognise. Characters, places, spells – anything from the Harry Potter books are not mine. I am simply a poor student who had an idea that begged to be written!
This idea sprung from what Harry hears when the Dementors get near to him – to me it seemed weird that James didn't last any longer than he did against Voldemort. I imagined him as a powerful wizard, and as he had evaded Voldemort 3 times I thought that he would've been able to at least keep Voldemort occupied for a while. So, here is my story, which is what might have happened to James, but almost certainly didn't. Please read, enjoy and review!
James' Duel
San stared around the island of Rendakadavra. The sandy shores, beautiful mountain ranges, colourful fields and at ease atmosphere meant that the island was easily mistaken to be a paradise. Having lived on Rendakadavra for as long as he could remember, San knew otherwise.
People went to live on Rendakadavra to escape their previous lives. Some left their partners and family homes, some left behind their criminal records – everybody seemed open to each other, yet nobody knew of anyone else's previous life before they became an islander. Only those born on the island were really known by anyone.
Below the laid back atmosphere was the tension. It hung in the air like a heavy cloud and refused, point blank, to budge. Those with previous convictions were scared of being found, those with partners were scared of being found, those with terrible secrets refused to let themselves be found. They were the ones who were always ready to leave at a second's notice. Their worry came from not wanting to leave.
After a while, the easiness with which each day passed and the underlying tension and guilt of the occupants became dull. The island wasn't huge – everyone knew everyone, a few new people arrived each year and a few tired of the island and finally left the supposed paradise.
Sitting on the beach became boring after a while. San had grown tired of the soft sand. Tired of the way that it stuck to everything, tired of the way that it always seemed to be there, tired of the way that it always looked the same. He longed for some pebbles to hurl into the calm sea, he longed to watch the calm sea ripple and splash, and he longed for something different to happen.
He wasn't married, he had no children and he felt as though he had nothing to live for. Every day was the same, every nighttime dream he had was the same and everything seemed to have little or no point at all. Truthfully, though he didn't usually like to admit it to himself, he felt hollow inside as though he was missing something. Sometimes, he jokingly told himself that he was missing flying on a broomstick and that maybe that was the reason why he dreamt about flying every night.
Islanders sometimes imagined that they knew each other. They knew that there was something about San that wasn't quite normal, but could never place their fingers on what exactly it was. The older ones remembered when San had arrived on the island. He had appeared on the beach, seemingly out of nowhere, and apparently hadn't been able to remember anything about his previous life. There had been a lot of speculation and gossip about whether this was actually true, though nobody ever ventured to question San about it. Nobody asked about anyone else's past. They all had something to hide and wanted to leave behind whatever they had been, or whatever had happened to them before they arrived on Rendakadavra. It made the island more peaceful, or, in San's opinion, more dull - incredibly dull.
San was short for Jason, the name that had been given to San by islanders when he had arrived at the island with apparently no memory. He insisted on being called San because he felt it made him more individual. It didn't really. It just felt different to being called Jason, and San wanted change.
Tourists didn't venture to Rendakadavra. The locals were not accommodating to tourists. There were no hotels, chalets, caravans or any temporary accommodation for tourists to stay in. There were no shops in which to buy groceries. Rendakadavra was unwelcoming to temporary residents, mainly because of the anonymity of the islanders. Seeing a familiar face from the past could upset a resident's peaceful life.
New people who ventured to the island, therefore, had to work hard to show that they were not a mere tourist. They built their own places to live, grew their own food and made their own clothes. Part of island life was the constant, yet friendly bartering of excess produce. Those who weren't born to make clothes grew extra food and swapped with those who could stitch with one hand tied behind their back.
San couldn't make clothes. He could grow food easily enough, but his main talent was really something else. As he long for different things to happen, he used scraps and basically anything that he could find, to make 'prank' items. How he was so good at it was a mystery to everyone and was a large factor in why many of them refused to believe that he had lost his memory.
As San was the best, and only maker of prank items, his products were highly valuable. Islanders respected him for his unique talent and the younger ones often begged San to take them on as apprentices. San didn't. Though he longed for variation, he didn't long for company. He liked to daydream and conjure up pictures of his life before he came to Rendakadavra. He imagined himself in different jobs, in different countries, in different families and sometimes he even imagined himself sailing the seven seas. At least being a Pirate bought something different everyday.
After years, fourteen long years stretching to feel more like twenty-eight, San decided that he'd had enough. He wanted to live his daydreams, or at least some of them. He wanted to find people who had known him before, who could help to bring back his absent memory. He wanted to live life to the max.
As he made his leaving plans, he spent time strolling along the beach, thinking of pebbly beaches with fairs, piers and amusement arcades. He remembered his country of origin – England – it was evident from his accent, and knowing that he was English triggered the memories of the country. He remembered the cities and what it was like to live there, he just didn't remember who he had been; he couldn't see where he fitted in.
A new person, a young weedy boy who was forgetful with names, unfortunately for San, seemed to like something about him. Maybe San was what the young lad wanted to be when he grew up – if he ever grew up.
The boy wracked his brains for the name of the prankster who was currently strolling along the beach with his hands in his pockets, kicking up the sand to cause mini whirlwinds. He found the name and congratulated himself. He turned and yelled at the top of his voice.
San span round, quick as a flash, and was about the get seriously pissed off, when his brain seemed to pull him elsewhere. He flopped to the sand and watched what he supposed to be a memory unfold and play like a film inside his head.
Jason stood in a large hallway, hiding behind a suit of armour, rejoicing at the majorly successful prank that he and his friends had just managed to pull. It was hard not to whoop or laugh out loud, but he knew that blowing his cover would instantly take the edge and excitement away from the brilliant prank. He stayed still until the caretaker had passed, checked his map to make sure that nobody was heading his way and pulled the invisibility cloak off of himself. As the summer nights were stiflingly hot, Jason didn't wear the cloak unless absolutely necessary. He and his friends had each completed their own part in the prank at separate times, so Jason was equipped with both the map and cloak.
He stood up, stretched, let out a stray yawn, and decided to head for the kitchens. He turned round and found himself face to face with a stunning redhead. His breath caught in his throat, butterflies replaced the feeling of hunger in his stomach, and his legs felt like jelly. His tongue seemed to become tied and he stuttered intelligibly before deciding to wait for the girl to speak first. Sure he shouldn't have been roaming the corridors at this time of night, but neither should she. There was, therefore, no danger; no way his cover would be blown. He knew that this girl was not a prefect, he knew that she wouldn't want to get into trouble if she didn't need to, but he couldn't quite fathom what had happened to his body.
The girl opened her mouth to speak-
"So, James," Said the young, weedy boy. "Ready to teach me any amazing pranks yet?"
San's voice came back to him. Though he was annoyed with the boy, he was grateful of the triggered memory.
"Sorry, youngun, maybe some other time."
With that, he wrenched himself into a standing position and stalked off in the direction of his house.
And that was how it all started. San's battle with his memory, the battle that went on inside his head and was rarely won. However much effort he put into it, he could never remember just like that. It needed triggering by others.

Hi there!
I have a 2001 e46 330i sport that i foolishly let my girlfriend drive as i was staying over for a works do. As i arrived home yesterday and glanced over at my pride and joy sitting on the drive way, my mood quickly changed from beaming with pride, to horror as i realised the damage that had been inflicted. On interragation (i mean questioning her!) she denied all knowledge saying it wasn't her! After a little detective work, i pieced together the clue's and it all became clear. She had decided she didn't like the colour of the drive way posts anymore and she was gonna paint them silver with my car! To top it off she didn't even realise she'd done it! I know there well built cars but but that takes the pi**!
As you can all imagine, we are not speaking at the moment!
Anyways i am now in need of a new front bumper and was thinking of getting the m sport one off the face lift model. As mine has the aero body kit, would there be any issue fitting the above? and can anyone recommend the best place to get one?
Thanks Dave.

What Are They?
Zucchini have a mild, almost sweet flavor and a tender flesh. Unlike winter squash, zucchini have a soft, edible skin and can even be eaten uncooked (try them in a salad).
How To Buy
Look for zucchini that are firm and heavy for their size; the skin should be bright green and blemish-free. Because they are harvested earlier, smaller squash are more tender than larger ones and have thinner skins; choose squash that are less than eight inches long.
How To Store
Refrigerate zucchini in a plastic bag for up to four days; do not wash until ready to use.
How To Prepare
Depending on the cooking method that is used, zucchini may be sliced, cut into small pieces, or even shredded. To coarsely grate, use the large holes of a box grater.

Prairie Central Railway

|Decatur, Illinois
The Prairie Central Railway (reporting mark PACY) was a short railroad line that ran from Decatur to Paris, Illinois. It was based in Decatur, and ran on about 74 miles (119 km) worth of mostly former Pennsylvania, later Penn Central Railroad and later Conrail trackage. In 1982, the railroad was extended to include approximately 80 miles (130 km), south from Paris to Mt. Carmel on former New York Central trackage, terminating at the Southern Railway.
The Prairie Central Railway was formed during the 1980s deregulation period by Craig Burroughs, which consisted of several railroad properties. An affiliate railroad was formed as the Prairie Trunk (PARY) which ran from Flora, Illinois, to Shawneetown, Illinois on former Baltimore and Ohio trackage.
Power for the trains consisted mainly of former Conrail GE U25Bs, most tracing their heritage to the New York Central.

Courteney Cox, Neve Campbell & More Get Glam At 'Scream 4' Premiere!
The scream queens from the hit horror franchise walk the red carpet in LA for their film's big premiere!
The hotly anticipated Scream 4 premiered in LA April 12, and the red carpet was packed with all the glam stars of the hit film franchise! The lovely ladies were nothing but smiles in sparkles, satin, lace, and more — and definitely far from dead!
On again off again couple David Arquette and Courteney Cox showed no signs distress, posing together in matching black ensembles, while Emma Roberts, in a blue Burberry racerback, and Kristen Bell, in Vanessa Bruno, appeared to have matched their fun frocks. All eyes may have been on Neve Campbell , in an architectural Vivienne Westwood Couture dress, who was reprising her role as Sidney Prescott, but Hayden Panettiere stole the show in a crimson Zac Posen cocktail dress.
CW starlet Shenae Grimes also took a big fashion leap in a long-sleeved emerald top and black bubble skirt, and showed her support for Japan with a star-shaped sticker under her eye! And I cannot forget my favorite Pretty Little Liar, Lucy Hale, who showed up in a sparkling black dress with a very wide slit in the middle to her big screen debut — you go girl!

Alpine heritage a 'hollow gesture'
Page Tools
The State Government's ban on cattle grazing in the Alpine National Park is likely to stay in place after legal experts yesterday dismissed an intervention from Canberra.
The Federal Government granted emergency heritage listing to the 660,550-hectare Alpine National Park.
Federal Environment Minister Ian Campbell said the park had equal environmental and historic values. "The Victorian Government's decision to ban grazing in the park poses a clear threat to the historic heritage values," he said.
But Senator Campbell could not explain how the park's heritage listing would overturn Victoria's ban. He said the "legal practicalities" had not been worked out.
Instead of battling the issue in court, he wanted to talk to the Victorian Government about modern management techniques to protect the environment while leaving cattle to graze in the park.
Heritage and environmental law experts told The Age that Canberra had no power to override the Victorian ban because federal legislation - the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act - explicitly did not override state laws.
The Bracks Government said it would stand by the ban after receiving similar advice from Victoria's Solicitor-General. Hundreds of people marched through the city in protest at the ban on Thursday.
University of Sydney heritage expert Professor Ben Boer and Brian Preston, SC, a barrister and academic in environmental law, said that under federal legislation the Victorian Government would not be bound to keep cattle grazing in the Alpine National Park.
But Mr Preston said there was a small chance of a constitutional challenge if the Commonwealth wanted to pursue it. Senator Campbell's office did not respond to requests for its legal advice on this issue.
The State Government must now know they are on the wrong horse.
- SIMON TURNER, cattleman
Professor Boer said that if grazing continued it would be difficult to gain World Heritage Listing for the Australian Alps, which Senator Campbell said he wanted to pursue.
Brisbane barrister Chris McGrath, who specialises in environment and heritage legislation, said the Federal Government's move was a "flag-waving exercise" devoid of practical help for farmers.
But mountain cattlemen welcomed Senator Campbell's intervention.
"The State Government must now know they are on the wrong horse with their decision," said Simon Turner, president of the cattlemen's association.
"It is time they joined us and worked on a compromise that will suit all parties," Mr Turner said.
State Environment Minister John Thwaites described Mr Campbell's actions as a political stunt that would ultimately backfire and had created false hope for the cattlemen.
Premier Steve Bracks said: "It will make no difference . . . the Federal Government can't force our hand to issue new licences."
The State Government cancelled cattle licences in the Alpine National Park because of damage to the environment. A scientific panel had recommended that most of the cattle be kept out of areas burnt in the 2003 bushfires for 10 years. About 10,000 cattle will remain in the high country state forest.
Senator Campbell's decision was criticised by Greens leader Bob Brown, who said his grandmother had danced with one of the men thought to be the Man from Snowy River.
The decision was evidence that politics overrode good environmental sense in Australia, he said.
Senator Campbell has referred the matter to the Australian Heritage Council. The council must provide its advice on whether to permanently list the park within the next 40 business days.
The council - and the minister's Department of Environment and Heritage - have previously said the heritage values of cattle grazing were outweighed by the damage it did to the natural values of the park.
Meanwhile, Victorian Liberal environment spokesman Phil Honeywood cast doubt on Opposition Leader Robert Doyle's promise to restore cattle grazing if the Liberals won government. Mr Honeywood said he supported the party's position, but questioned its practicality.

Call For Submissions
The first issue of Gender Matters has been really successful. It's in the hands of many youth, teachers, parents and zine readers! All the sale proceeds have been donated to organizations that support trans/gender variant youth...nearly $350.00
Topic: (Essays, anecdotes, comix, poetry) from gender variant folks telling stories of going through puberty and adolescence, and early adulthood experiences. Take that as broadly or specifically as you'd like; literally how your body was changing and how your brain was dealing with it, or going to a dance and how that made you feel, dating, coming out to your family, teachers, classmates, etcetera...
Audience: 7-12 grade students.
Specifics: The pieces should be free of cursing and overt sexual content, I want to get the zine in schools, so content should be school appropriate.
Why/Purpose: It's rough trying to find age or school appropriate material for trans/gender variant/intersex youth and it's imperative that all young people see themselves in print.
Puberty, adolescence, and early adulthood are hard for everyone but it's extra alienating and difficult when you feel alone and radically different from the majority. I want this zine to be an offering to gender variant kids who need to see themselves in print, to know that they are not alone, to offer comfort and hope. I want the zine to open the eyes and hearts of cis gender folks so they become allies. I also want it to open up dialogue between youth, parents and teachers.
I keep this quote in mind when I'm writing curriculum and deciding what to teach for the year. Perhaps it will inspire you.
"When those who have the power to name and to socially construct reality choose not to see or hear you, whether you are dark-skinned, old, disabled, female, or speak with a different accent or dialect than theirs, when someone with the authority of a teacher, say, describes a world and you are not in it, there is a moment of psychic disequilibrium, as if you looked into a mirror and saw nothing." ~ Adrianne Rich
