Annual emptying of Thanet's largest tidal pool (at low tide end would be 5m) Found in eulittoral, submerged probably some of the time here, when the sluice gates are shut. Such a flat spire thought this had to be different.
Other observations of Flat Periwinkle (Littorina obtusata)
Hi Graham, I agree the spire
28 March 2013 - 12:40am nightfly
Hi Graham,
I agree the spire isnt right for Ll. Edible periwinkle has a pointed spire as the other examples in the carousel show. This is more like the shape of the Flat Periwinkle with the flat pointless spire, but having looked at Flat Periwinkles recently there seems to be more than one species and the size of the opening seems to seperate them.
Have a look at this paper on Littorina obtusata and Littorina mariae-
Its not the one I wanted to share which I read a few months back, when I find it I'll share it. It went into opening detail and from memory, it said one species had a very large opening, the other very small but certain individuals couldnt be seperated on this feature alone as there is an overlap.
The flat periwinkles seem to be a bit tricky.
...location and loads of other ID notes don't hit home with flat peri as I thought this might be. Don't like the spire but opening just like Ll. Definitely not a topshell either.
It looks right for a flat

It looks right for a flat periwinkle, its quite distinctive and not easily confused with edible/common periwinkle or a topshell.
What other ID notes dont hit home? It looks ok to me, if its found in Britain then location is fine.

On this page it mentions 3 colour morphs of Littorina obtusata- reticulata being green, brown or black. Maybe that ?
Sorry Graham, this is the
28 March 2013 - 12:49am nightfly
Sorry Graham, this is the last link- good diagram here of the differences in opening of Littorina obtusata and Littorina mariae. Yours seems to match obtusata better than mariae?
So we could be looking at the colour morph reticulata as mentioned above, I wonder would that be Littorina obtusata reticulata, or just Littorina reticulata?
Hi Graham, I dont think
28 March 2013 - 1:12am nightfly
Hi Graham,
I dont think there's anything else it can be to be honest, opening and colour are fine, its a very variable critter colourwise.
I have searched iSpot for references to mariae/fabilis/obtusata
In this case the shell thickness and flatness allows me to agree with Graham.
It must be nigh-on impossible to separate the various morphs of L. obtusta from colour alone because of regional differences, food plant and, possibly, pollution. But the scientific separations DO seem to be based on pattern and colour.
As for L.mariae, Cathal, that is now called Littorina fabilis - though I s'pect you knew this.
If you want a real challenge, see here -
interior of shell
14 February 2017 - 9:25pm Ian Smith
The interior of the shell shows it is not L. littorea. It is L.obtusata or L. fabalis. Given the large size in (I presume) a sheltered habitat, the odds are heavily in favour of L. obtusata, but a view of the penis (no need to kill) would settle it.

Speaking as the Government launched the report of Sir Nicholas Stern's review of the likely impact of climate change, the Prime Minister pointed out that the last Ice Age was the result of a dip in global temperatures of around 4C-5C.

• Miliband unveils green 'stealth tax'
• 'Green tax' hikes could leave families £1,000 worse off
• At a glance: What the climate change report means for you
• Is 2006 on course to be our warmest year ever?
He warned the consequences for the world if global warming continues unchecked will be "disastrous", including cutting economic growth by as much as one-fifth.
The report, which argues that taking action could cost 1 per cent of global GDP, is thought likely to pave the way to large increases in green taxes.
Chancellor Gordon Brown said the only way to prevent such tax hikes would be through an international effort to address global warming.
The Chancellor, who has recruited former US Vice President Al Gore as an international environment adviser, pledged to lead the global response.
"The truth is, we must tackle climate change internationally, or we will not tackle it at all," he said.
"Today I can say Britain will lead this global effort."
Speaking at the report's launch in London, Mr Blair said: "This is the most important report on the future published by this Government in its time in office."
The prospect of global warming is "frightening", but the scientific case that it is taking place is now "overwhelming", said the Prime Minister.
"What is not in doubt is that the scientific evidence of global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions is now overwhelming.
"It is not in doubt that if the science is right, the consequences for our planet are literally disastrous."
Mr Blair added: "This disaster is not set to happen in some science fiction future many years ahead, but in our lifetime.
"Unless we act now... these consequences, disastrous as they are, will be irreversible.
"There is nothing more serious, more urgent, more demanding of leadership - here, of course, but most importantly in the global community."
Global issue
While Mr Blair said that the UK needed to do more - including with a Climate Change Bill - he stressed that it was a global issue which could only be dealt with internationally.
"I accept that we have to be bolder at home because it gives us international influence and it sets the standards for others to follow," he said.
"However, I want to emphasise it is only international action that will really address the problem on the scale that is needed."
He said that Sir Nicholas' "landmark" report had performed an important service.
It has demolished the last remaining argument for inaction in the face of climate change," he said.
"Should we fail to rise to this challenge I don't believe we will be able to explain ourselves to future generations that we have let down."
Mr Blair said that the dialogue begun at last year's G8 summit at Gleneagles was "critical" to finding a solution.
"We can't wait five years it took to negotiate Kyoto. We simply don't have the luxury of that time," he said.
He added that the report showed that failing to tackle climate change could cost 5 per cent to 20 per cent of world gross domestic product while action would cost just 1 per cent.
"It proves that tackling climate change is a pro-growth strategy," he said.
Unveiling his report, former World Bank chief economist Sir Nicholas said the action needed to avert the worst effects of climate change was "manageable", adding: "We can grow and be green."
The global community should aim to stabilise CO2 levels in the atmosphere at around 450-550 parts per million (ppm), he said.
Temperature rise would bring changes to human lifestyles
He warned that continuing with business as usual could mean levels rising to as much as 850 ppm, resulting in global temperatures rising by more than 5C and causing "transformational" changes to human lifestyles.
The last Ice Age was the result of a dip in global temperatures of around 4C-5C, he pointed out.
Damage caused by floods, rising sea levels and more violent weather could be the equivalent of losing 5 per cent-20 per cent of total human consumption a year, he warned.
The world's poorest countries would be hardest hit, even though it is the rich countries that are responsible for 75 per cent of all emissions.
But Sir Nicholas said the cost of acting now to stabilise atmospheric CO2 at acceptable levels would be around 1 per cent of GDP.
"This is the equivalent of paying 1 per cent more for what we buy," he said.
"It is like a one-off increase by 1 per cent in the price index. That is manageable. We can grow and be green."
Also, the scientific and technological advances needed to tackle climate change could produce a boost to the British economy in terms of improved efficiency and the development of valuable new technology, he said.
"Economically speaking, mitigation is a very good deal," said Sir Nicholas. "Business as usual, on the other hand, would eventually derail growth."
Sir Nicholas said that action on global warming must be global, long-term and flexible enough to cope with considerable risks and uncertainties.
Policy should be based on the establishment, by both trade and regulation, of a carbon-pricing system.
And it should involve the promotion of technological solutions to the problem through scientific research and development.

Gemme: Secret IntentionsMature
I tap the table in boredom, I tried to tell him I wasn't interested, that I already had someone but the doubt of me actually having Luca sort of penetrated my voice and he stayed ranting about how a beautiful girl like me shouldn't be so sad, so I got up and tucked the book under my arm I walked out of the cafe. He followed me, okay now I was peeved and a little scared. I mean what if this guy actually tried to do something? I may have just been paranoid but these things happen and without a power or any kind of strength I couldn't do anything to stop it. I picked up my pace and he began jogging after me, telling me to wait up.
"Go away!" I shouted and he stopped, he must have realised he wasn't wanted. I let out a sigh of relief and decided to walk home. But as I saw the streets were practically empty my paranoia returned. I was like that you see, so I tried to find a busy street. Where was everybody!? I looked around and stopped I heard something, turning I saw no body but when I turned around again I saw him. Damn it, I was right. This was why I never left the house. But what are the chances of someone picking on me? "You're hot." The words rang in my head and I sighed, right now I believe you.
I turn and walk back the way I came, but I took a shortcut. Town was a while away, the beach was closer and there is always someone on the beach. I looked behind me and he was still stalking me. He picked up his pace and I picked up mine. I tried to think, I noticed the only connection I had with my powers was Luca. What would Luca do? "No one hurts my friend and gets away with it." Well, he hadn't done anything to me. Then I made a mistake, the way I had come lead straight to an alley way which was a shortcut to the beach. Damn brain.
He grabbed my arms, pushing me up against the wall and I struggled against him, but even with no show of muscles he still over-powered me. "Let me go!" I screamed, not that he would drop me and go, "oh sorry, on your way then." He tugged at my top and I screamed again, this time it wasn't aloud, it seemed I had just contacted Luca. I didn't want to trouble him though. What am I saying? "HELP ME!" I growled to him, as the man held both hands behind my back as he tore off my shirt. I could hear his breathing and I cursed myself, wondering why I didn't realise his intentions earlier.
I forced back tears; I wasn't going to show my weakness to him not now. He would have to tear the scream from me, but from the look in his eyes that's just what he was going to do. I felt the pure anger in Luca's head and I felt relieved but as the man pulled on the zip of my jeans I felt scared again. I kicked him; it would take him a minute to recover and an extra minute for Luca to find me. I showed Luca where I was, as best I could as the fear in my thoughts escalated. The man got up and the anger showed as he gripped my hands tighter, he whispered in my ear "I'm going to enjoy this," I shook my head. "No you're not." I grinned as I felt Luca grow closer. He pulled my jeans down and I kicked as best I could against him, it wasn't much but I needed to buy as much time as I could.
I probably should have been vaguely concerned as images of what Luca wanted to do to the guy flashed into my head, mixed with fragments of Rayn shouting at him and his footsteps as he ran. But I wasn't and as I felt him get closer I screamed his name, "Luca!" The man laughed, happy that he had finally got the scream he wanted. But he didn't realise what that call would bring. He tightened his grip on my wrists as he pulled at the clips on my bra, my wrists hurt so much. It was as if they were going to break, but he stared at me for a moment, staring at my naked form, well except for my pants.
Luca sprinted around the corner closely followed by Rayn. He practically flew at the blonde guy, dragging him back away from me. There was a sickening crack as Luca threw the guy to the floor, his head colliding with the concrete. Rayn just about managed to stop Luca from kicking the guy's head in completely.
I rubbed my wrists, I heard one of them crack a while ago but I was more bothered about biting back the tears and stopping him from getting what he wanted. I held my undone bra close to me to cover myself and sat there, slouched on the floor, my knees were pulled close to my chest as I watched Luca with relief.
Rayn let Luca lay into the guy a little bit, before having to pull his friend off the guy. He told Luca to go punch a wall or something and sent the guy packing. Reluctantly, Luca smashed his fist into the wall closest to him before turning to me.


text: After deliberating for about four hours the jury delivered a verdict in the case of Zachary Carr, the young man accused of shooting John "Bobby" Surles in Bangor last year.Surles died two days later.Guilty of murder. That's the verdict that was returned in the trial of Zachary Carr." Our theory of the case obviously from the beginning had been that this was an intentional or knowing murder. There were witnesses that corroborated that and I was happy the jury saw it that way."Carr began to cry as soon as the verdict was read." We're obviously disappointed in the verdict. We're considering our options for motions. For this we'll be filing a motion for a new trial. We'll also likely be filing a motion for judgement as matter of law."" I just loss my best friend. We were like brothers. I don't know what to think."Throughout the entire trial the courtroom has been full of friends of both Carr and Surles.They say they have taken a big lesson from this trial." Just let the small stuff go. Get on with life. Fighting isn't worth it, this is what it leads to."Surles mother says she is relieved with the verdict." Very hard, a lot of anxiety. Didn't know what the outcome would be but I feel justice has been served."Carr's sentencing is scheduled for April 21st.The state says it's a little premature to say what they will recommend for a sentence but think it may be in the 35 to 40 year range.

text: The Maine Appalachian Trail Club is celebrating its 75th birthday Saturday with hard-earned present. Nearly 100-people gathered in Skowhegan to mark the trail club's anniversary. Organizers also signed a special lease agreement with the Somerset Woods Trustees. The agreement will give the club a parcel of land in Skowhegan to build a permanent base camp for trail crews. The club, made up mostly of volunteers, is responsible for maintaining 267-miles of the Appalachian Trail in Maine. They've been working on the idea of a base camp for three years and say it will be unique to the needs of trail volunteers.Lester Kenway, MATC President, says, "There'll be a general kitchen and dining area, there'll be a training areas, there'll be storage for tools and equipment and housing for the people that work on the trail."Club leaders say volunteers come from all over the world to spend time on the Appalachian trail and keep it in tip-top shape for others who use it. But they're always looking for more people to help out. If you'd like more information on the Maine Appalachian Trail Club, you can log on to www.matc.org

by GIANFRANCO PANIZO
Days after head coach Juergen Klinsmann was relieved of his coaching duties, Franck Ribery has warned Bayern Munich that he too could leave the German club if they fail to qualify for next season's Champions League.
"It would be difficult for me to stay if we do not reach this goal," Ribery told French sports daily L'Equipe. "It is why the club must, at all cost, finish at least in second place."
Ribery, who has scored seven goals and tallied six assists this season, has been linked with moves to Barcelona and Manchester United, both of which played in yesterday's Champions League semifinals.
Ribery and Bayern Munich currently stand in third place in the German Bundesliga and host relegation-threatened Borussia Moenchengladbach this Saturday.
Here are some other stories to get you through the rest of the day:
Hill heads to Portugal
Former UCLA standout Kamani Hill is currently on trial with Portuguese club Vitoria de Guimaraes.
Hill, who is currently under contract with Bundesliga side VfL Wolfsburg, joined the club on Monday for an extended trial and is hoping he can land a spot with the club that finished third in the Portuguese last season.
Spector discusses latest injury
After missing several weeks of action due to a concussion he suffered in a league match against Sunderland, Jonathan Spector spoke with West Ham United's website on Wednesday to discuss the horrid events that transpired after being stretchered off the field.
Spector goes in depth about his injury – even mentioning that he swallowed his tongue which in turn blocked his airway - and credits his speedy recovery to West Ham's medical staff.
Do you see RIbery leaving Bayern Munich regardless of if they qualify for the Champions League? Is Kamani Hill still on your U.S. Soccer radar? Hoping Spector gets called into the U.S. camp next month?
Share your thoughts below.
Huge news out of Italy:
"Italy's top football division Serie A is poised to split from Serie B to form a new league Lega Calcio Serie A."
Der Amerikanische Kaiser
And he will not be the only one…more to follow.
Der Amerikanische Kaiser
CSD – Boring, scandalous and hollywood diving football anyway. Who cares?
Is there anyone uglier than Ribery?
Josh T.
Serie A football is definitely not boring, quite the opposite in fact. I'm interested to see how this plays out. Kaiser, I'm sure you and I would both agree that the EPL and Bundesliga offer more pace to the game, but Italian teams get up and down the pitch.
Sounds like a scary experince for Spector but a quick recovery which is good. We really could use him being healty and getting some playing time this summer to see if he can be a part of the 2010 backline. I think if he is healty he would make the team but we really need to see how he fits in.
If only there were something Ribery could do about his team's performance.
Kamani Hills Nats Days are over!!I can't beleive Ribery's ultimatum he acts like its the board out there playing these games instead of he and his teammates. absolutley ridiculous. I don't think any bayern player can make ultimatums the way they lost to barcelona.
Absolutely want to see Spector playing for the MNT this summer. I think we could use him in any of the back line positions.
I hope Ribery ends up at a team with a dental plan.
If Kamani Hill gets consistent playing in the Portuguese Superliga, whether as a forward or right back, I just don't see how he would not be an option for the National Team. Frankly, if and when Hill signs with Vitoria, I would be as pleasantly surprised by that move as I had ever been involving an American player outside of maybe when Arguez signed with Hertha and Hill himself signed with Wolfsburg.
Johnny Boy
You are uglier than Ribery
"he acts like its the board out there playing these games instead of he and his teammates. " But that's his point. The board is playing games. They played them with Klinnsmen over Donavan, and now Klinsman is gone at a precipitous time in the season. I think he's probably frustrated with the meddling.
god, he really is one hella ugly and hella talented bastich ,that ribery.
im sure he still gets more perfect 10 ladies than anyone here will ever see, so i guess its gods way of being fair.
First thing, Donovan was irrelavant with Bayern for a reason, not good enough. Ribery tries to do too much by himself on the field sometimes. They need to get rid of Toni once and for all. He's not Bayerns type of striker. They'll rebound nicely and make the ChampLeag. Ribery will be gone after this year and they'll probably be better off after all is said and done.
Barry Jive and His Uptown Five
"When Ribéry was two years old, he and his family were involved in an automobile accident in Boulogne-sur-Mer after colliding with a truck. Ribéry suffered serious facial injuries that resulted in over one hundred stitches and left two long scars down the right side of his face.
His wife, Wahiba, is a French national of Algerian descent, and the couple have two daughters, Hizya and Shakinez. Ribéry is a convert to Islam."
Who knew Ribéry was a muslim?
And the French call him "Cicatriz" — or Scar.
He is a spectacular player…
Barry Jive,
I knew. I knew :
I am not sure whether Bayern will let him go. Even if they don't qualify for the CL there will be enough money for reinforcement. But Ribery tends to leave clubs after the 2nd season…
Serie A is boring and are all divers, Kamani Hill's national team career is over at 23, we have some real geniuses here today.
ONLY 6 Assist, no wonder Bayern suck this year
Patrick Marshall
Ribery is not winning any beauty contests for sure. I did not know the story about his accident, or that he was a muslim. I appreciate the post. I love to watch him play as much as any player. Brilliant, skillful, quick, speedy, often unpredictable. As noted in a previous post, He does try to do too much on his own.
By the way, do not kid yourself. Landon D. is good enough to play for and impact any team in the world if he is used properly. It seems like it is kinda cool to bash LD, and I am not particularly a fan, but I do recognize that he has world class ability.
Would not be surprised if Ribery left. Sort of unprofessional/immature to threaten to "take my ball and leave"! Better ways to motivate the team w/o sounding elitist!
I would like to see Spector get healthy long enough for him to get some substantial minutes with MNT and regular play w/club!
After seeing the picture I was sure the ultimatum was going to be for Bayern to take him to a good dentist…or else
Johnny Boy,
Thats harsh…but i knew as soon as i posted that i would get at least one of those.
Hill and the Nats. LOL.
Never ceases to amaze the cluelessness/desperation of US fans.
We know little about him, he never plays anywhere as a pro, but he must be quality.
The stupidity factor is staggering. Just like those who worship lower league English Yanks who are fatally flawed.
Skill/evaluation ability is still not a US fan strength. That is for certian. Unreal.
I've seen Hill in Germany. Only MLS expansion gets him a job. Not a very good player. Some of the desperate/clueless/insecure US fans need toget a clue, and grow a pair mentally.
We have much better players in MLS performing who most wouldn't consider Nat material. A guy with zero track record is considered because he sucks in Europe. Wonderfull.

The story on Spector was amazing.
I've only ever had a very minor concussion, but knew there was a risk of slipping into a coma. I never knew there were other serious dangers like swallowing your tongue involved.
I really like Spector, he is my favorite defensive player behind Super-Frank on the MNT. I hope he stays with the big London club and gets back into the starting XI. I also hope to see him on both the Confed. Cup and Gold Cup rosters. We need him next year in South Africa in full fitness. His injuries lately have been devastating, but for him to get back on to the bench in 3 weeks after that collision is impressive.
Spector was born in Chicago, but you can hear he talks like a Briton even through reading the article, without the accent obviously. I'm feeling a Spector appearance in front of his home crowd against Honduras June 6th.
I also hope Hill continues to improve and hopefully gives the MNT some depth up top.
Scott C from Buff
I hope Hill can make it Portugal. I've often wondered if some of our younger players would be better off playing in places like Portugal or Spain rather than Germany or England. Sounds like Alex Costa thinks Hill is one such player. I think Hill is off the radar of the US for now, but if he can make it at a top club in Portugal, I think he deserves another look…
Colin Ferguson
I'm sorry, I couldn't really concentrate on what you were talking about because I was too busy thinking about how big a douche you are. No one cares kid.
Actually, TK, Hill played extensively in Olympics qualifying and the Toulon tournament last summer.
He showed an ability to play anywhere on the field, and while not dazzling by any stretch, showed SOME composure and creativity, skills that the National team lacks.
At his age, and with an expanded role on a decent team he could develop.
I don't know exactly how often you saw in Germany, but he looked capable (at the least) while playing with his peers.

Josh – I went to a match at the San Siro last December, AC Milan vs Sienna and nearly fell asleep. Sure the Italians get up and down the pitch, by diving.

Bird, Shrub and King
This poem came out from me while I was sitting in my car, looking at people who were walking in front of me. While they were walking, behind them, was a little tree dancing in the wind through the rhythms of the wind.
this was my last day on earth
my last night as a bird to sing
both wings were wrecked by high
every life, i will speak of this tempest wind.
i was a lion, i was a wild-horse
i was a dead eagle from the horizon
my old forms became a petite shrub
five feet height of a cursed, dying tree.
my footing was joint to this earth
since the last mud i soaked, in the rain
stuck my roots to this tremor-ground
when my life was upside-down
heart of mine was grown in firm
slowly, it ripened out in my dancing trunk
spat bitterness out through my outside leaves
the green things that relied on my duplicate branches.
'facing battles, i let them sing
lost in fogs, i let them scream
under torrents, i let them shout
with their hearts out, i let them spin'
this is my last day on earth
my last night as a yellow tree
every of my skins will be falling out
soon, i will be stopped as a dried out king.

Report: City 0-1 Newcastle United
City beaten by solitary goal as resilient Newcastle take maximum points
Dwight Gayle strikes the killer blow after 19 minutes in a game short on clear-cut chances
Crowd of 22,512 is City's highest since 1990
Mark Perrow reports from Ashton Gate
City's biggest crowd for 26 years saw their team edged out by a resilient Newcastle United side at Ashton Gate.
Dwight Gayle struck the only goal of a tight game after 19 minutes, latching on to Mo Diame's pass to score in clinical fashion.
City enjoyed plenty of possession and the lion's share of the chances, but the Sky Bet Championship title favourites dug deep to grind out three important points.
Lee Johnson was not afraid to mix things up after City's first defeat of the season at Norwich City in midweek.
The head coach made four changes to his side – only one of which was enforced, as Joe Bryan was forced to miss out through injury.
In came fellow Bristolian Scott Golbourne, along with Bobby Reid, Luke Freeman and Adam Matthews, who made his first league start since returning to Ashton Gate for a second loan spell.
Both teams started with real intent in almost horizontal rainfall as the conditions resembled more November than August in BS3.
Newcastle had players with obvious quality, not least Matt Ritchie drifting in off the right wing, but City were determined to put on a show for the bumper crowd and flew out of the blocks.
Full-backs Matthews and Golbourne both had shots blocked – symbolic of City's attacking approach – while Lee Tomlin lofted a cheeky chip on to the top of the net from 20 yards.
Rafa Benitez was fielding Irish international Ciaran Clark, a central defender by trade, at left-back and Jonathan Kodjia had the beating of him.
Twice the Frenchman raced by his man on the outside and sent the ball bouncing around the United box.
But Ritchie's sweet left foot is always a danger and the former Bournemouth midfielder delivered a corner on to the head of Isaac Hayden, who should have done more than nod wide from six yards.
Then Gayle, playing the role of pantomime villain having been the subject of reported from Ashton Gate last summer, stepped up to take a free kick in a dangerous position that never looked like dipping in time to trouble Richard O'Donnell.
The City keeper still had not needed to make a save by the time he was picking the ball out of his net after 19 minutes.
When fellow summer signing Diame carried the ball menacingly over the halfway line,
peeled away into the left channel, bringing down Diame's ball over the top and blasting past O'Donnell in the blink of an eye.
It would prove double punishment for City, as Matthews pulled up trying to retrieve the situation and was immediately substituted with what looked like a hamstring problem.
Undeterred, the hosts came back strongly. Hordur Magnusson's goalbound header struck Aden Flint and looped up into the air.
Tammy Abraham was underneath it and just a couple of yards from goal, but some heroic defending kept him at bay.
Red shirts were buzzing around in the final third and Freeman vacated his wing to force Matz Sels into his first notable save after Hayden had again missed the target from another Ritchie corner.
City would enjoy plenty more territory after the interval, but by now the visitors had regrouped and Benitez's team talk looked pretty straightforward from afar – don't concede.
Newcastle were noticeably deeper and more reluctant to commit players forward, at least in the early stages of the second half when City were bound to come out quickly.
As a result, City were able to get closer to the penalty area, produce more crosses and win more corners, albeit nothing to greatly unsettle a towering backline.
The introduction of Callum O'Dowda for Golbourne just after the hour was a sure-fire sign that City were going for it – adopting a 3-4-1-2 formation as Kodjia moved inside to partner Abraham.
Newcastle had offered nothing as an attacking force since the break until Gayle collected the ball into feet, turned sharply and struck the outside of the post with a curling shot from 20 yards – a stark reminder of the quality at the visitors' disposal.
Johnson immediately threw his last card – Aaron Wilbraham replacing Abraham, who had been starved of opportunities to continue his hot streak in front of goal.
Still chances remained at a premium into the final 15 minutes. Flint climbed as he high as he could, but could not keep his header down from another Gary O'Neil corner.
So content were Newcastle to sit on their lead, City were gaining belief with every passing attack.
The set-piece count continued to rise. Freeman sent a free kick against the first man before producing a peach of a corner on to the six-yard line that Magnusson headed only inches wide.
City needed a piece of magic to save the day. Tomlin stepped up and was not far away from providing it with a 30-yard free kick that just dipped too late, while Kodjia volleyed over after Sels flapped at a high ball.
Plenty of encouragement for the 22,512 inside Ashton Gate, but not quite enough to send the red majority home happy.

Alenai pt 4
Makal found me in that position, sitting in front of the window, still staring at the place where my home planet had disappeared. "Your eyes are drowning." He said quietly. I looked up to see one long hand reached out to me, holding a piece of cloth. I dried my eyes, I hadn't realized I was crying, then folded the now damp cloth in my lap. It was a finer material than any I'd ever felt, no threads caught on the rough skin of my dry hands. Makal moved around to sit beside me, I could see where his four arms came in handy then, as he draped one right arm over my shoulders, another, its left counterpart rested in his lap as the other two supported his reclined position.
"I know it is hard," he said, "to see your planet become a round orb floating in darkness. It must seem so small." I nodded, not trusting myself to speak, my throat ached and felt swollen.
"It is okay to cry." Makal said, "I feel homesick every time I leave my planet. It is a natural thing." He got another nod. We gazed out the window at the stars and planets flying by. I pointed at the ones I knew, not really wanting to think about how fast we had to be going. I didn't feel the movement, nor hear any engines. I took the opportunity to examine my buyer, since he was sitting so still, only moving to show me another star or planet that I didn't know. Makal had smooth skin that looked like gold silk, he shined a little in the starlight. He wore that flowing white robe, with split sleeves and a wide gold sash. He was reclined in a cross-legged position, his legs folded in front of him. His face was calm, his nose and mouth were small, unobtrusive. His chin was pointed; he looked like no hair had ever grown on his head, he had no eyebrows. His eyes dominated his features. Large, dark, with no white at all, they were expressive, liquid onyx. They reflected the lights from the window as he follow the paths of each star his gaze fell upon. After some time had passed in this activity, Makal looked at me. I dropped my gaze to the floor, embarrassed.
"I'd better go." I muttered, standing up. His arm dropped off my shoulders. "I have to change- and uh, claim a bed." I stammered out excuses, backing away from my embarrassment.

Rail passenger groups and environmentalists have reacted with anger and dismay after the train companies this week said they will be raising ticket prices across the network - in some cases by as much as 15%.
From the start of next year, commuters will see their fares go up by an average of 4.8%, says the Association of Train Operating Companies (Atoc). Some annual season tickets are set to rise by a whopping £360 from January 2.
Passengers travelling into London from Kent face some of the steepest rises. An annual season ticket from Canterbury will rise 11.1% from £3,132 to £3,480. A weekly ticket between Hayes and London will rise almost 15%.
Atoc defended the increases, saying companies are providing better services, but passenger groups and unions voiced their anger.
The increases mean that the average price of regulated fares - season, saver and standard day return tickets - will go up by 4.8%, which is 0.6% above the current rate of retail price inflation.
For a second year running, off-peak travellers will see the cost rise even more.
Unregulated fares - cheap day returns, open and advance purchase tickets - will go up by an average of 5.4%, some others by much more.
Long-suffering First Great Western users will see their fares rise almost 10%. Unregulated fares on West Country routes will rise by 6.1% on average.
Another guardian Money favourite, GNER, is upping its off-peak fares by an average 6.6%.
One Railways, which operates in East Anglia (and which will change its name to National Express East Anglia in February 2008), is imposing the highest off-peak average increases: 6.8%.
"We need the revenue from fares to pay for investment in the railway for the benefit of passengers," says George Muir, director general of Atoc.
"We are providing a higher-performing railway with new, refurbished and more punctual trains and better stations. Nearly 91% of trains ran on time between April and September this year, the highest punctuality level for a decade."
But passenger groups and unions condemned the rises, saying companies were holding customers to ransom. Anthony Smith, chief executive of Passenger Focus, says the increases are largely the result of government policy - to make passengers pay more of the total cost of running the railways.
"Passengers will be dismayed that fares are going up again, especially as on most routes they have no choice about which train company to use. Many commuters will have to fork out hundreds of extra pounds for their next annual season ticket."
Smith adds: "This is the shape of things to come. We are looking at this level of fare rise every year at least until 2014. The huge demand for rail travel and the lack of capacity will result in train companies pricing people off busier trains.
"The clear push here is to force people to book ahead if they want an affordable ticket. Flexibility is becoming the preserve of the well-off or those whose employers are paying for their tickets."
Some of the highest increases were announced by companies that have just taken over franchises on new terms under which the government will pay them much less subsidy than their predecessors.
In July, the government said it wanted passengers to be paying 75% of the total cost of train travel by 2014. As a result, from 2009 the annual subsidy for the railways will fall from £4.5bn to £3bn.
Bob Crow, general secretary of the RMT union, says the government's decision to cut subsidies flies in the face of its promise to pursue green policies. "Talk about the need to reduce carbon emissions is just so much hot air if the privateer train operators are allowed to impose another round of rip-off rail fare rises," he says."The private franchises are interested only in lining their shareholders' pockets, yet the failure to impose a sensible fares policy is having a direct effect on the environment, as more and more people who should be on trains take to their cars."
Atoc says rail travel has grown by 42% in the past decade. It adds that in real terms, fares have risen by just 5% since 1999/2000, compared to a 12% increase in bus fares and 20% for car fuel.
Tony Bosworth, Friends of the Earth's transport campaigner, warns that the rise in rail fares is the latest evidence of the government's "disastrous transport policy".
"We should be trying to get people out of their cars and on to public transport, not pricing them off trains. The response to growing rail passenger numbers is to raise prices, whereas the government's response to growing air passenger numbers is to support big increases in airport capacity.
"Since Labour came to power, the cost of motoring has fallen by 10% in real terms, while bus and train travel have become more expensive.
"It's little wonder that UK carbon dioxide emissions have risen," he says.

Scart Road
On April 4, 2008 by Donncha With 2 Comments - Architecture, Bantry, Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Cork, Houses, Ireland, Photos, Urban
Scart Road, or Bothar na Scairte in Bantry, Co. Cork.
When you leave the wide open area near the harbour in Bantry you come across really steep hills to the east. I happened to walk that way pushing a buggy so I had to stop and catch my breath here before heading on up.
Bantry is much bigger than I thought before and I should get some nice urban shots there the next time I'm down that way!

Lakeuk replied to Wiz201's topic in Aygo ClubYou should get perfect reception if you're in the DAB reception area, can you listen to FM stations ok, that probable will rule out an issue with your aerial. Finally get a cheap £20-30 portable DAB radio from the supermarket and turn it, if you get stations on the portable but not in the car there's probable an issue with the car, in which case I'd be taking it back to the dealing for them to sort out under warranty.
Yep, top deck, dead centre - perfect fried egg
Saw the new yellow aygo on the motorway yesterday, although it was on a car carrier on it's own in the middle of white aygos. Re profile, not yet got over passing it on, gave me 190,000 miles of trouble free motoring :)
Lakeuk started following new yellow aygo
Not my cup of tea, will eagerly be looking out on the motorway for see my first one out on the road, see if I warm to the colour. I'm not struck on the X design, blue xcite being the only one I like, I prefer the more rounded shapes of the other manufacturers - I've recently switched over to the darkside ;)
Lakeuk started following Speed Limiter
Lakeuk replied to Mutt08's topic in Aygo ClubWhen below the set speed you can accelerate, once at the set speed the power from accelerator stops or is maintained depending on the road surface. No braking is ever automatically applied, that's still the control of the driver so don't worry there are no auto break lights going on to confuse drivers behind. If the limiter is turned on when you're above to set speed or it's already on and your speed increases above the set speed without you using the accelerator (ie going down a hill) then the limiter display flashes and an audible continuous bleep warns you're above the set limit - these warnings stop once you're back below the set limit.
Bargain basement, £10 for 4.5 litres - my car is coming to the end of it's life this year having done over 180k miles in it paying double for the top recommended grade isn't a priority - I started topping up with oil at 100k miles with 5W-30 then switched to the 10w40 grade from 125k miles - I was expecting my mpg to reduce but that hasn't been the case, the same consistent peaks/troughsthrough each year.
Lakeuk started following 10w40 engine oil
I use 10w40 oil in my aygo all the time, hardly makes any difference to my economy - my aygo has raked up the miles so not bother at using the preferred rating, happy to go with the next of the list in my toyota manual. Switched to this for similar reason to yourself, struggled to get it at my local supermarkets and didn't want to fork out for the expensive stuff at halfords.
Looked through my bluetooth hands-free system owners manual Hands-free system does not respond. UIM buttons not lit — check UIM connection — check the connection to the electronic module. Tomorrow I'll check the wire into the User Interface Module, but where will I find the electronic module
Already unpaired on the phone, can't access the car side, no response from the Bluetooth button above the rear mirror, think no power is getting to it
Lakeuk posted a topic in Aygo ClubI hardly ever use the bluetooth in my 2008 aygo blue but noticed today that the light on the controller unit no longer glows and no response from the buttons, my phone can not see the Bluetooth device to connect to. Is there any trouble shooting I can do to try and pin down the issue, has the Bluetooth setup got a fuse I can check.
Lakeuk started following Bluetooth Stopped Working
Lakeuk replied to Arith's topic in Aygo ClubIt's an easy diy job, only bit which may cause trouble is if you don't have the tools if the bolt to the bracket is rusted away, I had to get the angle grinder to make light work of getting the old bracket of. I got my backbox and bracket from my local europarts, they were out of stock on the rubber hangers at the time, I was worried that I wouldn't get the old rubbers off or they wouldn't be in good enough nick to reuse, but applying good gollop of washing up liquid get them of the enlarged nipple easily and looked as new. Hope all these photos I took at the time help
Lakeuk started following Need To Replace Exhaust Back Box
Lakeuk started following Looking To Buy Aygo X-play
Lakeuk replied to macphee70's topic in Aygo ClubHave a look a my fuelly page, have 160k miles of journeys logged, shows what range you can get motorway driving with a light foot.
Lakeuk started following Toyota Service Kinda Sloppy
Lakeuk replied to Wiz201's topic in Aygo ClubCustomer service is the number one thing I look at, closely followed by cost. I've had various bad experiences from main dealers of various brands, one memorable one was when a local company lost their franchise in the town to a new dealership to the town but large in the region had won it. I booked in my car for a service and MOT with the new guys, said my brakes needed looking as didn't feel right and that I needed a courtesy car to get me to work 60mile away. Problem one, they couldn't find my courtesy car, keys gone, one of the engineer gone awol - turned out with traffic outside being bad (roadwords) the engineer had decided without permission to give another customer a lift to his work, engineer took a hour to get back making me very late for work, didn't even get a simple apology. Next issue, get a phone call half way through the day "We've put you car in for MOT and it's failed because of the breaks", me: you don't say sherlock, when I said the brakes needed looking at which bit didn't you understand common sense. Needless to say I didn't use them again and it looked like I wasn't the only one as 12 months later they lost their franchise and closes up. My nearest toyota dealer has given me excellent customer service, they recently were bought out by the vantage group, was a little concerned service would be impacted, there was a blip at first when the new owner tried to centralise all service phone calls which was a little rubblish in that they messed up my booking but my normal local service manager spotted the cockup and reconfirmed with me, after that it was back to being managed locally. Sadly the previous owner still owned the land and has sold it for a supermarket so the dealer is shutting up at that location, think they'll be using there nearest other sites, so will bit a little unknown whether the service is to the same standard.
Lakeuk started following Radioplayer Aygo Demo
Lakeuk posted a topic in Aygo ClubOk not exactly an aygo demo but it's a demo presented from inside an aygo of a new box of tricks (looks like a prototype to me) from the Radioplayer UK guys. I love using the radioplayer app on my android phone and the web app at home, but not convinced to use it yet whilst mobile as tests I've done so far take too much of my allowance for regular use but mobile data signal can be ropey Not convince a car manufacture based system is the way forward in a world with updates are needed especially when DAB in cars still isn't standard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdtdHFh3NhM
Lakeuk replied to robint's topic in Aygo ClubI've currently passed the 145k mile mark on my aygo, maybe looking at a change next year, I wouldn't rule out another aygo, but I'm not sentimental on brands/models so will be casing the net open to what's out there (saw the new C1 last week - nice). Top 3 things I look for in order are reliability, running costs (maintainance/insurance/mpg), purchase price. Doing mostly motorway driving I probable should be including comfort, but my thinking is I can cope with a hours drive at a time in it no problem, also the noise has probable given be mild tinnitus :) Only problem I have at the moment is with the number of miles now on engine it likes it's oil, currently taking 1 litre every 500 miles which it a weekly topup for me

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - December 1, 1999, New Braunfels, Texas NEW<fi»AtJNFELHerald-Zeitung Vol. 149 No. 9 18 pgs. in 2 sections December I, 1999 \~w J Serving Comal County since 1852 SO cents Wednesday Blaring horns in tile middle of the night, overgrown vegetation along railroad tracks, railroad crossings blocked by idling trains all are recent complaints made by local residents. But at least one resident has taken his complaint to the railroad directly. Harry Montague, who lives near the Hunter Road railroad crossing, said he called Union Pacific numerous times about blocked crossings. "There should be no reason for the railroad to jeopardize the lives of our residents by blocking crossings that would prevent emergency personnel access to the residences affected by blocked crossings," he wrote in a letter to the Herald-Zeitung. "Many of us have been forced to either stay home or travel an extra five miles to find a crossing that is open in order to leave or get home. "Several times school buses have had to turn around on the two lanes of Hunter Road with no shoulder in order to get children to school." One time, Farm-to-Market Road 306 was blocked for 15 minutes, he said. "Most people are in their cars and don't know what to do," he said. "Its a safety hazard." In the past month, neighbors have joined Montague in calling Union Pacific to complain about the blocked crossing. "We're calling and we haven't seen as many problems," he said. Not as many trains have been sitting and blocking crossings, he said. He encouraged others to call Union Pacific's hotline whenever they see a crossing blocked. The number is (888)877-7267. Montague said residents should call with the crossing number, w hich one can obtain by calling the Comal County Sheriff's Office. Union Pacific spokesman Mark Davis also encouraged residents to call. A train should not be idling and blocking a crossing, he said. "But sometimes a train does, for mechanical reasons, block a crossing," he said. Blocked crossings are just some of the concerns people have with the railroad in New Braunfels, which is home to two lines — about 17 miles of the old Missouri Pacific Route and about 17 miles of the former Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad, which was reactivated in October 1998. See COMPLAINTS^ Who To Call ■ Concerns about blocked railroad crossing, call (888) 877- ~ 7267. ■ Other railroad concerns: (402) 271-5459. Whether served hot or cold, leaded or unleaded — 'tis the season to drink Wassail! At the seventh annual Wassailfest Friday evening, residents can toast the holidays with a drink whose very name means "to your health." More than 50 merchants will prepare their own special versions of the spiced mixture that has been served for centuries. "Wassailfest is a great way to experience the holidays in New Braunfels," said Kyra Brandt, media chairwoman for Wassailfest. Organizers are expecting a big crowd this year, with more than 8,000 residents and tourists expected to be in attendance, Brandt said. "The event has been a hit ever since the very first Wassailfest and has grown ever since," she said. Not only w ill attendants get to sample a wide variety of Wassail, but they also will be able to register for a number of door prizes, enjoy live musical performances, take horse-and-buggy rides and eat special holiday treats. Residents can vote for their favorite Wassail in the People's Choice Awards, which will be given to the top three "wassail-meisters." The Brauntex Theatre will even awake h orn a year and a half of slumber to be the newest addition to the Wassailfest tour. The Brauntex sign and the front of the building will be lit in all of its glory to mark the occasion. Other attractions at Wassailfest will include hot air balloon basket medleys, gymnastic performances, Scottish bagpipes, puppet shows, music for the little ones and an automobile collectibles show.

Decorations were donated by the community and the center's members. WAI Ll/Herald-Zeitung NBU board approves consultant By Peri Stone-Palmquist Staff writer New Braunfels Utilities board of trustees approved Tuesday spending up to $30,000 for consultants to monitor activities related to the recently-approved utility deregulation bill. But one trustee, boart! vice-president E.C. Momhinweg, objected to tile expenditure. "I still think it's early for us to spend so much money on something we don't know what's going to happen," he said. "And the consultants don't know either." Under Senate Bill 7, investor-owned utilities are forced into competition by Jan. I, 2002, but municipal-owned utilities like NBU, however, have the choice whether to open the market up for competition. NBU has not decided what it w ill do. "I think the more information we have the better, to be prepared," mayor and trustee Stoney Williams said. Officials w ith the consulting company, R.W. Beck, attend meetings of the Public Utility Commission, which discusses the complex deregulation bill each month. NBU general manager Paul DiFonzo said die commission was discussing rules regarding deregulation.See NBU/5A Residents take complaints directly to Union Pacific By Peri Stone-Palmquist Staff Writer Some like it hot, some like it cold, but all like it with a lot of holiday cheer By Erin Magruder Staff Writer WAI Ll/Herald-Zeitung Carol Johnson, owner of Johnson Furniture Co., 283 S.

However, community and political leaders say an effort is under way to address the growing number of persons infected with the human immunodeficien-cy virus, which I# causes AIDS. People across jflEpk the world will ribbons and attend candle-light vigils in recognition of World AIDS Day today. Dec.

... decided it would be fine. Either way, we are here and we are heading to La Spezia! From there, Rome and then a ferry ride to somewhere warm!!!
After a short hour or so of biking we stop in a shabby, industrial town in search of our tourist info office. Finding it was a snap, and it was open! The young man inside was helpful enough to give us a map of the city and tell us we could go to the library for free wi-fi.
This made me a bit frustrated on top ...
Cinque Terre
... relaised this was par of the blue path and we could see Corniglia just across the waterr. And it looked like a very easy worrk. But it was closed. So we turned around and headed back to the train.
The next town Corniglia, which is high on the hills and requires a significant climb of stairs to reach it. We made it to the top and started to explore, entering the souvenir shops looking for a pin, at one point after asking for a pin we had a lady rummage ...
A day of walking and gorgeous views
... at the next town, Vernazza, which also has beautiful views. More gelato ensues, this time more amazing dark chocolate. Then it's late and I'm sore (my ankles are asking me why I used them on such uneven rock surfaces), so I catch a train back to Riomaggiore. Some tasty seafood and pesto-pasta later, I finish up the evening sipping a glass of wine from a local vineyard (seems quite tannic) watching the ocean. Awesome ...
I love Cinque Terre!!

Mi tobillo est� mejor, pero me pegu� el rodillo en una pared y tener los calzones mojados la mayor�a del d�a no es muy bueno. �Vale la pena!!! �Estoy completamente agotado, pero feliz!

Conch and String
Love. A baby rests knowing that, by holding the string inside, the shell won't release the spindell to fall to the floor. And that is an existential thought that keeps us asleep at night.
On a table sat
a petite seashell that
never rolled away
and began to shine today.
Around a spindel wrapped,
a humble thread that
never broke or frayed
began a quest today.
From the shelf it fell
to the small seashell,
becoming the cradle-
not falling from the table.
The two of them were found
by a small child's astound,
and inside the two intwined,
the string was sent inside.
With the string inside the shell,
a soul was found as well-
within the small confines,
the baby sleeps this time.

With the function realloc, you can change the size of the allocated area once. Has the following form.
void * realloc (void * ptr, size_t size);
The first argument specifies the address of an area that is currently allocated to the size in bytes of the modified second argument. Change the size, the return value is returned in re-allocated address space. Otherwise it returns NULL.
Size may be smaller but larger than the original. If you have small, reduced what was written in part will be inaccessible. If you increase the portion of the region will remain an indefinite increase.
The address of the source address changed, but the same could possibly be different, even if the different areas of the old style, because it is automatically released in the function realloc, for the older areas it is not necessary to call the free function. However, if the function fails and returns NULL, realloc, the older area is to remain still valid. Therefore, the first pointer argument of the function realloc, both can be NULL pointer return value is not returned.
# Include
int main (void)
int * p1, * p2;
p1 = (int *) calloc (5, sizeof (int)); /* number of elements in an array of type 5 int */
/ * To do something * /
p2 = (int *) realloc (p1, sizeof (int)); * / re-acquire the space of one type / * int
if (p2 == NULL) * / check if successful * /
free (p1); if it fails to get re-/ *, the region remains valid since the original * / to free myself
return 0;
p1 = NULL; safety measure * /. p1 is realloc () because it is released inside,
/ * Keep assigning NULL to clear the other can not use
/ * To do something * /
free (p2);
return 0;
The realloc function is a very feature-rich functions. This is not the pros, cons and rather may be better. For example, if a NULL pointer to the first argument passed to the malloc function with the same behavior as the size specified in the second argument. Meanwhile, the second argument to zero, the operation to free the space pointed to by the free function specified in the first argument.
In other words, whatever the arguments, it is the sister supposed to mean something to the result, which may not have to be an error with the error should really be something. In particular, even in very common use, such as the following:
char * p2 = realloc (p1, size);
Happened, if the variable size is zero, this is not the same behavior as the function becomes free. If it is NULL p1, is the handling function malloc. NULL and 0 respectively when and what behavior is undefined.
In addition, the pointer argument to realloc function first must point to a secure area using one of the functions malloc / calloc / realloc (if a NULL pointer may be, in which case the above equal to the malloc function and so on).
Quite complex because, you have put a sample implementation of realloc function to aid understanding.
void * realloc (void * ptr, size_t size)
char * p;
if (ptr == NULL)
return malloc (size); if the first argument is NULL / * * / function which works the same as malloc
if (size == 0)
free (ptr); second argument is 0 / * * / function which works the same as free
return NULL; * / return NULL because no new areas to be reserved * /
p = malloc (size); using the function / * malloc, * / a space equivalent to the size of the newer
if (p == NULL) {return NULL; if the function fails} / * malloc, return NULL. The original area * / remain
memcpy (p, ptr, size); the data in the source area / * * / to be copied to newly allocated space
free (ptr); source area / * the * / to be released
return p; * / return the address of the beginning of a new space * /
Here are the points you need to remember.
Here's an example ,learn this example and then try applying the same idea to write your own programs.
