KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Volunteers hit the field Friday night for the opening practice of fall camp, a two-hour workout on Haslam Field.
Head Coach Butch Jones was pleased with the effort of his football team, but reminded everyone that the first one is easy, the story now is how the players come back to the field tomorrow and the other 20+ practices that remain on the pre-season schedule.
"It was good to get back out on the grass to go to work," Jones said. "There was a lot of thinking going on, a lot of great energy. Now the challenge for the football team comes. You've had one practice and you can never simulate being in football condition. You can have the greatest summer that you can possibly have, but it never simulates football conditioning. How do we bounce back tomorrow? What kind of mindset do we have at 7:30 in the morning walking into our team meeting? What's our mental approach?"
Jones spoke at length leading up to camp about becoming a player led team, a theme he continued to focus on after the opening practice.
"I thought our older players did a great job of coaching our younger players," said Jones. "Everything is about habits. We're forming habits, we're forming our identity, we're forming our style of play, so every rep is critical."
The Volunteers have stepped up the intensity level for this fall camp, turning up the dial in every area, starting with a team meeting Thursday night and extending to the dinner table, the meeting rooms and, finally, the practice field.
"We've challenged every player in our program from yesterday to today in our meetings in retention of information, even right away in the meetings," Jones said. "Even our meetings have been intense and that's what you've got to have to get a lot of players ready to play for the first time."
One of Tennessee's most notable linebackers has begun the final training camp of his collegiate career. A.J. Johnson. He comes back not only with three years of experience in the program, garnering SEC and All-American honors, but also with the title of a true leader.
"AJ is invaluable and you can't simulate game speed repetitions and game experience," head coach Butch Jones said. "A.J. Johnson has played a lot of football here. We have really challenged him from the communicative aspect, spending time with the younger players, talking football with them.
"One of the things A.J. discussed is, overall as a football team, improving our football intelligence. And that is something we are spending a lot of time on. But to have his experience. I watch where our players sit, who they kind of gravitate towards, and I am always looking at Dillon Bates and it is amazing, he is always finding AJ Johnson and sitting next to him."
The decision for Johnson to play an additional year with Tennessee came with much thought but more enthusiasm and focus.
"When I made my decision, somebody told me `Whatever decision you make, make the best of it' and that's what I'm doing," Johnson said. "It's full speed. Everything I do, I'm trying to go full speed.
Johnson strives to get better as an individual in everything he does, but never speaks about himself without including the `we' of Team 118.
"I didn't come back to not win a bowl game. I came back to be the best we can be, but we're taking it one day at a time. Like today, we had a great practice today, we'll come back and have one more practice. That's our motto: one day at a time."
"One thing I always say is work on the little things. That's what's going to carry the furthest. The little things throughout practice, feet work and working on leadership is a big thing. I know we have a whole bunch of new guys so working on that and just trying to show them the right way."
With 43 newcomers to the team, Johnson realizes there's more responsibility in leading the underclassmen but is ready for the challenge as training camp moves forward.
"There's more responsibility to set the tone," Johnson said. "It's having more presence and making sure the guys feel you on the field. We have 43 new guys who have never played college football before. We had a great day for a team that never had a college practice. We had a pretty productive day today."
Brian Randolph has spent his time so far at Tennessee as young player flying around the field. Now, as a redshirt junior, Randolph finds himself in an unfamiliar role as the old man on the block.
With the addition of six new secondary players, the influx of new talent has definitely caught the eye of the veteran safety. Randolph says the newcomers have definitely made an impact in upgrading the team speed.
"They are definitely fast," he said. "They probably upgraded [the team speed] a good amount. They're swarming around out there. You can tell they're quick on their feet." "They definitely bring juice to the secondary."
Not only are the freshmen talented, they have also shown a strong work ethic and desire to improve each day.
"They come in extra - they're very diligent," said Randolph. "They come in extra, they come in after hours, they come in before practice and meet up with the coaches to get some extra drills in."
Randolph broke down each of the newcomers:
On Emmanuel Moseley: "You can tell he's one of the veterans. You ain't gotta watch him as much as the other ones. He's always making calls out there. You can tell he's been here."
On Evan Berry: "He's definitely a dual threat. He can play any position in the secondary. He's fast and he's also got size to him."
On Elliot Berry: "He's a little bit bigger. Right now, they've got him rotating at nickel and at safety. He's definitely shown us some things out there."
On Rashaan Gaulden: "He's doing well, as well. Right now they've got him at nickel, so he's getting some reps out there. He's very fast and has good ball skills."
On Todd Kelly: "He's very driven. He's a driven individual. You can tell he wants to play and be the best he can be. He's always in here trying to watch film and do the extra things."
On Cortez McDowell: "That's one of my guys right there. He's pretty much the same as TK. He's always watching film, always asking coach questions, always trying to come in early and look at film and stuff like that."
On the other side of the ball, another four-year veteran in the program is primed to take on the role of leader. Marlin Lane is preparing to guide a fresh group of newcomers.
"To me, it feels the same," Lane said. "Playing my freshmen and sophomore year and then my junior year, it made me feel like a senior because me and (Rajion Neal) were the older guys in the room and had the most experience. We coached the others. I feel like I'm in the same role. I just need to step it up more.
"We have a lot of freshmen and newcomers. We tried to go out there as veterans and help them through the plays as we go onward fast. "
With his leadership needed with a young team at hand, many see Lane in charge of the backfield. His goals as a leader?
"Leading the power of my position. When I'm out there, I'm representing my running back group, my coach, my head coach and my team, so I just want to go out there and give it everything I got."
Lane not only wants to lead through his experience as an upperclassmen but also his through his dedication to improve in his senior season. Having averaged 5.3 yards per carry in his junior season, Lane is striving for more.
"I worked on it in the offseason," Lane said. "I work on my legs, strength, keeping up with my weight and just knowing the plays more so I can understand it to get up to six yards ad work up to seven and eight (yards per carry)."
Experience has been a constant theme for Tennessee's offensive line, led in-part by Marcus Jackson and Kyler Kerbyson this season. Each has redshirt-season time behind them as they move into leadership roles among a now younger, yet quicker, offensive line.
"I took [my redshirt season] as a time for me to improve on what I needed to improve on," said Jackson. "There are a lot of things for a lineman. You have technique, you have finishing, hands inside, footwork, making sure I sprint down the field and leadership skills. All of those things I had to work on last year."
Despite the initial disappointment of his redshirt assignment, Jackson appreciates the time to work on his own skill set.
"I figured that was a time that I would improve the most in my career, since I did have time to just focus on me," Jackson added. "Taking a leadership role this year has been placed on me. I had that feeling a long time ago, as far as being a leader."
Kerbyson, coming off of a pair of seasons where he played as a back-up, lets the questions regarding Tennessee's offensive line motivate him while he strives to be an example for his younger teammates looking to him for guidance.
"I spent the past three years behind some really good guys in Zach Fulton and Ja'Wuan James," said Kerbyson. "I just learned as much as I could from them and I'm excited to get out there now and have my chance.
"I like the fact that people don't think we're going to be alright," added Kerbyson. "They think that we're going to be the weak spot. It motivates me every day and it keeps me going. I think we're more experienced than people think we are."

A GUN murder at a teenager's funeral could have been copied from Channel 4 gangster drama Top Boy.
Ronnie Khan, 21, was shot dead at close range in front of 200 mourners on Thursday afternoon. Just 24 hours earlier, a scene on Top Boy featured a mob staking out a memorial to a murdered rival.
Police sources said the real killing was related to violence between two gangs in Brixton and Peckham, South London.
Top Boy, screened on four nights this week, portrayed gang culture on a fictional East London estate.
And young Twitter users went online to claim there was a direct link between the two. One wrote: "Look at what top boy has done 1 person dead 1 seriously wounded in a funeral, its total madness." Another said: "Why r people imitating #topboy someone just died at a funeral."
Channel 4 last night denied glamorising gangs. A spokesman said: "No one watching this series could fail to see the dangers of being caught up in gang culture."
Thursday's murder in East Dulwich came as Joel Morgan, 17, who died in a car crash last month, was being buried.
A 17-year-old was also shot in the ankle after mourners had warned on Twitter about a gang clash – and police admitted they were prepared for trouble because of Joel's "contact" with gang members.
Twitter tributes to Ronnie, of South East London, included younger brother Ricky saying: "There are no words I can put together to express how I feel." Another user wrote: "How can you get shot 6 times whilst going to your friend's funeral?"
Joel's mother said the coffin was being lowered when she heard gunshots.
Carlene Brooks, who said she requested a police presence at the funeral, added: "To hear another boy has died is devastating."
Police have drafted extra officers into the area and Met Police Commander David Zinzan said: "Our priority is to bring to justice those responsible for this horrific shooting and to prevent any further incidents."
Four people, including two 17-year-old girls, arrested after the shooting were released on bail.

If my mag capacity were limited to 7 rnds I would change my edc to my Kimber Ultra CDP. I sometimes carry it anyway, and I would rather have 7 .45's than 7 9mm's. That's just me.

If my mag capacity were limited to 7 rnds I would change my edc to my Kimber Ultra CDP. I sometimes carry it anyway, and I would rather have 7 .45's than 7 9mm's. That's just me.
I'm already NY compliant (although I don't live there). 9mm isn't one of my options. 45 and 10mm are the two I have to choose from, both in a 1911 platform.
I like a .45, but it really wouldn't make a difference to me as I carry both now.
I'd simply carry my XDs more often. With the flush mag it holds five with one in the pipe for a total of six; with the extended mag it has the seven round limit in place already.. If I had to pick seven of this or seven 9mm, I'd go with the .45ACP. While I think seven 9mm rounds are just fine for a defensive pistol, in fact I carry my Sig P938 all the time and it fits the restriction perfectly. My problem is with the word "restriction" how dare they put such a ridiculous restriction on legal gun owners, like the bad guys are gonna adhere to such a limit to avoid a fine..... Just plain dumb.
I'll definitely be working timed shots and timed reloads with my SP101 and GP100, that's for sure!
IMHO, the current crop of 9mm defense ammo presents such a small level of comparative compromise to a .45 acp that I would likely still carry a 9mm. Yet, if limited to 7 round mags, I think the size of my 9mm handgun would reduce correspondingly. The Kahr P9 comes immediately to mind.
Ruger GP100 in 357 with the hottest load available from my armory.
Shot placement is absolutely necessary, so six shots should do the trick, even in New Jerk State.
Maybe opening the eyes of N J Voters will eliminate the necessity of these conversations after the mext election.
Will definitely stay out of New Jerk, and New Jerk City. Sheep are not my cup of tea when it comes to associating with
intelligent people!
Stay loaded and stay safe. TKH
I'd pick up a G36 and call it done.
I at times prefer the 9mm over the .45 because of higher capacity and lower recoil, meaning I can shoot it faster and more accurately. But the little Glock .45's, recoil so soft for a .45 caliber that I can shoot them quickly and accurately as well. While I think that the performance between 9mm and .45 is negligible, I do believe that the .45 does have an edge. Given the same capacity, I personally see no need to go down to a 9mm, unless it allows you to carry a much smaller gun, which in most cases it does. But I don't need anything smaller than a G36.
I currently go back and forth between my G19 and G30SF. I carry my G19 more because of the capacity and I can shoot it a bit more quickly. But I shoot both my G30SF and G19 about the same. The main advantage I see over the .45 is capacity. And as I said, the little Glock .45's shoot so soft, I swear they recoil less than my full sized non-Glock .45's, including 1911's.
I have no doubts a 9mm would stop a threat. But the .45 I do believe has an edge over the 9mm, and since you're no losing capacity, and I can personally shoot the two calibers about equally, I'd have to go with the .45... G36.
Personally, though, I am already good to go with my .45's. I just REALLY hate being told what I can and cannot do.
If ya gonna go, may as well go BIG. Desert Eagle .50.
Seriously, I'd stick with my CM9 for the same reason I went with it to start with, size.
Number of rounds doesn't matter it matters how well I shoot the pistol, if all was equal besides the caliber I would go 45 auto.
Given that there is so little difference in terminal performance between popular pistol rounds, which one can you produce the most effective hits with the fastest?
My choice would be a S&W 686 3-5-7 w/125gr .357 (devastating) if the width of your carry isn't important or the M&P45c w/230gr Gold Dot should you prefer a Slimmer carry
I like a .45 but a 9 is fine.

Pulliam Pools, one of the nation's largest builders, has been purchased by two of its employees.
Third-generation owner Barry Pulliam sold the nearly century-old firm to Vice President/General Manager Debra Smith and Sales Manager Mike Clark.
"I know it would have been ideal to advance the family business to a fourth Pulliam generation," Pulliam said. "But while not biologically related, both Debra and Mike are family, too. They have been a critical part of the success of this business, and I am delighted that they will continue my family's legacy."
Smith, now majority partner of the Fort Worth, Texas-based company, becomes president/general manager. Clark is vice president and sales manager.
As part of the sales agreement, Barry Pulliam, who is 60, will remain as a consultant for 15 years.
"I [wanted to] consult for the next 15 years, but couldn't wait until I'm 75 to do that," he said. "I want my existing customer base to be taken care of. I want the business to continue and the employees to have livelihoods. If I wait another 15 years and sell to an outsider, I have no control over whether those employees would still have jobs."
Pulliam Pools was founded as Pulliam Inc. in 1916 by Theo Pulliam who began the company as a concrete contractor. His son and second-generation owner, Doren, purchased the first gunite rig in Tarrant County, Texas, and helped develop the process of pneumatically applying concrete that has become standard for the pool industry.
In 1984, Barry Pulliam purchased the company from his father, growing it from 50 pools a year to 100 in his first 12 months as owner. At the economy's peak in 2005, Pulliam built 500 pools. In 2007, the most recent year recorded in the Pool & Spa News Top 50, the firm reported nearly $20 million in revenue.
Debra Smith joined the company as a part-time employee in 1992. She was promoted to office manager, general manager, then vice president/general manager. For the past few years, she's largely overseen day-to-day operations.
"I feel very honored and proud that Barry would entrust this to us," Smith said. "I'm speechless and awed by his confidence and faith in us."
Smith also is president of APEC, the Texas pool and spa industry's legislative advocacy organization.
Clark joined the firm in 1984 as a salesman, and later became sales manager. Credited with strong planning skills, he made it a priority to teach the sales staff to draw, provide thorough plans and implement CAD systems.
Pulliam said the sale was the perfect exit strategy in an age and industry where some people have a hard time with succession planning.
"To me, this seems like a real win-win situation: It's good for my employees, it's good for my customers, and it's good for me. Everybody's taken care of."

I mean, do the owners not know what caused the downfall of CART? How arrogant can you be when it comes to ignoring past mistakes? Why on earth would you ever want to voluntarily make the same mistake twice?
Several things came to mind: 1) If the owners complain about how expensive the DW12's have become and how they can't afford Aero Kits in 2013, then how in the hell can you get enough money to buy the entire series? 2) I'm not much of a business guy, but I am pretty sure you can't just buy a racing series from someone. The Hulman Family has to be willing to sell, which I don't think they will.
The problem with the owners in Indycar is that a) they are never happy no matter what, because they begged for a CEO, but now the one that they have (who has made Indycar relevant again) isn't quite good enough b) everything revolves around money for them. They don't take a step back and think about the consequences that could result from another owner buyout. If they want to know what happened the last time this happened, they can turn to the page titled "Racing History in 1996".
|Lots of people miss the go old days of Indycar before the split
And with the news last week that costs would be cut due to a decrease in testing in 2013, how can owners be upset at Randy Bernard for not making an effort to cut the costs?
I absolutely support Randy Bernard, and I fully guarantee that he could do a better job than any one owner in Indycar. The only owner I'd ever trust to run the series would be Michael Andretti.
But here's the ultimate message to Indycar owners: No one is forcing you to be in the Indycar Series, so if you don't like how things are being run, then leave! There is no point in making the same mistakes that CART made, thus destroying a great series for the fans, team owners that actually like Randy Bernard, and drivers who spend their whole life preparing themselves to make it to Indycar.
I'm not saying the owners can never voice their displeasure on a issue, that's the exact opposite of what I am trying to say. Yes the DW12s have been more expensive then advertised, but if you should be mad at someone, maybe the owners should buyout Dallara.
But there are ways to go about it, like going to talk to Randy himself instead of going to the press about the issue. Silly idea, I know, it's a brand new concept for some owners.
So the message to owners trying to plot the downfall of Randy Bernard: Stick a brick in your pie hole.
Let me know what you think.

WASHINGTON -- While lawmakers are working on appropriations bills to fund the government next year, they seem to have lost interest in trying to meet the country's long-term fiscal challenges. But the newly updated Federal Budget Challenge (www.federalbudgetchallenge.org) gives citizens across the country a chance to succeed where Congress has thrown in the towel, letting them select policies to put the country on a fiscally sustainable path.
Two nonpartisan, nonprofit organizations -- Next 10 and The Concord Coalition -- created the Federal Budget Challenge in 2009. It lets players look out over the next 10 years and weigh some of the many different deficit-reduction options that are available to elected officials. The new version includes the most up-to-date options as presented by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.
For example, players can decide what to do about the caps on discretionary spending that were put in place by the Budget Control Act of 2011. They can allow the caps to continue, or remove them and allow discretionary spending to grow with inflation or the economy.
"Despite recent improvements in the near-term budget picture, fiscal policy remains on an unsustainable path," says Robert L. Bixby, Concord's executive director. "This generation has been presented with significant challenges that we must begin to solve. The Federal Budget Challenge allows us to examine areas such as health care costs, taxes, education programs and defense spending, and also lets more Americans join the conversation about the tough choices facing our country."
The online game prompts users to answer important questions about their priorities for America's future. For example:
As players consider such questions, the Federal Budget Challenge lets them see how their decisions might impact the deficit in the years ahead. Each option includes background information along with both supporting and opposing arguments.
In Washington, the chaotic federal budget process in recent years has often led to poor decision-making and unrealistic funding plans.
"Long-term, the federal deficit is projected to grow signficantly by $7.6 trillion over the next ten years," said F. Noel Perry, founder of Next 10. "These issues directly impact American voters, who are largely shut out of the budget process."
The exercise features interactive social networking tools and touch-screen capability. Users can take the Challenge as a group and send their results to friends.
The Challenge is based on Concord's "Principles and Priorities" exercise, which has been used in hundreds of classrooms and public programs across the country, including some hosted by members of Congress from both parties. The budget challenge platform was originally developed by Next 10.
The updated exercise is available at www.federalbudgetchallenge.org.

A .357 magnum can fire .38 Specials, but it doesn't go the other way, so they aren't completely interchangeable.
Which I prefer depends on the application. For a lightweight, pocket carry revolver, I prefer to stick with just the .38. It is less expensive, ammo is less expensive, and a little bit shorter as I recall. A snub nosed revolver is not a novice's gun, and takes a fair amount of training and practice to become proficient with. The recoil from an airweight snub nose revolver is pretty brutal in .357, and odds are, that a lot of people will not stick with .357 loads for extended training, because of that. I like to train how I fight, so I am not going to train with mild .38's, and then load full housed .357's for carry, that is my opinion.
Once you get away from the pocket carry sized revolvers, I usually see no reason to go with just a .38, as the larger, heavier revolver will help diminish the recoil. So I prefer full sized .357's to .38's, since the .357 can shoot both rounds.
As far as manufacturers, it is hard to go wrong with either Smith and Wesson, or Ruger. Your intended purpose is going to determine the model you want though.

In this post I will explain the rendering process of the Piwik country maps. The results will basically look like this:
Date Archives → October 2011
Visualizing the Global Digital Divide By Mapping Internet And Population
With this map I tried to visualize the global digital divide. It shows more than 80,000 populated places in blue and about 350,000 locations of IP addresses in red. White dots indicate places where many people live and many IP addresses are available.
The IP address locations are taken from the GeoLiteCity database by MaxMind. The database of populated places is taken from geonames.org. The visual style is largely inspired by Eric Fischer's wonderful Flickr-vs-Twitter maps.
don't miss the high-res version..
Facebook And Its Impact In Connecting People
You probably remember this map of Facebook friendships, which made it's way through the web in December 2010.
In this related article, the creator and Facebook intern Paul Butler explains the process of rendering the map. The most interesting remark he made can be found in the last sentence:
It's not just a pretty picture, it's a reaffirmation of the impact we have in connecting people, even across oceans and borders.
Well, there are some nice things about the Facebook friendships map. I like the colors. I like the density of information. I like the patterns. But there's one big part of the picture missing in the map.
And that's the internet.
After all, Facebook is "just" a website and websites can be accessed through the internet. So, when speaking of "connecting people, even across oceans and borders", we should demonstrate our respect for the internet. To do so, I re-created my old map of the internet:
It shows more than 300k geographic locations of ip adresses, based on the free geo location database by MaxMind. Interestingly, the map shows almost the same "patterns" and complexity that is visible in the Facebook data. Given that, the remaining insight we get of the Facebook map is that Facebook is accessed by people all around the web (except for China).
No big news here.
Moving on with the Piwik Maps
Here's a short documentation of my current progress in re-creating the Piwik maps in SVG/JS. Since we're going to create at least one pre-generated map source file per country, file size is going to be an important issue. That's why we thought about removing all polygons whose area is below a certain threshold, say 10 square km.

Romeo and Juliet (edition 1999)
by Bruce Coville, Dennis Nolan (Illustrator)
Work details
Romeo and Juliet by Bruce Coville
No current Talk conversations about this book.
A good way to introduce children to The Bard, the plain telling of this story is well written, yet familiar as the words spoken by the characters are the lines that we have heard for decades. The delicate art and illustrations provide a backdrop for this romantic, tragic tale of young love.
A beautiful and approachable retelling of one of my favorite Shakespearean play! The illustrations truly demonstrate how young Romeo and Juliet are, which is an important aspect many students forget while reading. This is a great resource to introduce the play, review important plot points and characters, or offer a wide scope of a play that takes significant class time. Includes some of the most memorable and significant lines from the play.
Romeo and Juliet is, arguably to some, inarguably to others, the greatest love story ever told. Bruce Coville and Dennis Nolan's adaptation does nothing to lessen the story's legacy.
As is par for the course with this author/illustrator pairing, Coville strives to keep the heart of the story in tact while Nolan uses Coville's cues to paint beautiful pictures. As compared to other works of theirs, however, one thing is a bit different. The language used here, while still easier to read than Shakespeare himself, is a bit more complex. Still, it's only a minor issue to note. The illustrative quality, on the other hand, has not changed a bit. Nolan's work continues to be top-notch.
As an introduction to the world of Shakespeare or a companion to the play itself, Coville and Nolan's Romeo and Juliet works quite well.
Romeo and Juliet are from feuding families, and they are forbidden to be with each other. This tale of fighting for love is timeless. The illustrations make the story come alive, and the language make it more readable than the play version does. I think every high school English teacher should have this version as a reference for those students who just can't grasp the traditional play version.
This book is the tragic story of Romeo Motigue and Juliet Capulet. This book is about forbiden love.Romeo fell in love with Rosaline but she didnt love him back. For a while he was sad but his goofy cuzin and his cuzin's friend got him to go to the ball and while he was there he fell in love with Juliet. Tybalt out of anger killed romeo's cuzin and out of anger Romeo killed Tybalt. Out of anger the prince banished Romeo frome fair Verona. Juliet's parents made her wed but she didnt so she drank a fake poison to make her seem dead. The man that gave her that was suposed to send Romeo a letter saying it was fake but he never got it. After hearing about his wifes "death" he made an irational disition by buying posion what will he do???

Joining Bruce Coville's earlier prose adaptations of Shakespeare's plays is this picture book treatment of the Bard's most popular work ever. The tender story of the young star-crossed lovers from warring families, Romeo and Juliet has moved audiences to tears for four hundred years. And Coville tells it in a way that will surely whet the appetite of young audiences, who will then find even greater enjoyment in the original. As with his earlier adaptations, Coville expertly combines his own dramatic language with key lines from the play. Dennis Nolan, who illustrated Coville's version of A Midsummer Night's Dream, contributes stunning paintings, including a gatefold of the famous balcony scene. In addition to A Midsummer Night's Dream, which Publishers Weekly called "A first rate entree to the Bard," Coville also retold The Tempest and Macbeth. Of the latter, School Library Journal said, "Coville's muscular sentences, full of dramatic word choices, make this a good read-aloud." Both Macbeth and A Midsummer Night's Dream were honored as ALA Quick Picks for Young Adults.

UKIP councillor Malcolm Small has been made subject of an electronically-monitored curfew after breaching his bail relating to a charge of arson.
Rushmoor Borough Council's elected member for West Heath appeared at Basingstoke Magistrates' Court on Monday (March 3) after contacting the victim whose clothes he burnt at his Farnborough home on February 4.
This was a breach of the 48-year-old's bail conditions, imposed when he admitted the arson charge on February 20 at Aldershot Magistrates' Court, and the curfew which was subsequently put in place forbids him from leaving his Brewers Close home between 7pm and 7am daily.
He was also told to hand over his mobile phone and not apply to get a replacement to ensure he does not commit the same breach.
The curfew, and a condition that he live and sleep each night at his home address, will be electronically monitored. The curfew will not impact on any scheduled public council meetings that he is required to attend.
Small will be sentenced at Basingstoke Magistrates' Court on Friday (March 14) after admitting burning Kim Van Opdorp's clothes.
Leader of the local UKIP group, and fellow West Heath councillor, Cllr Mark Staplehurst told the News & Mail that the case had been "blown out of proportion" and that no decision on his future was likely until after the sentencing.
Council leader Cllr Peter Moyle, however, has said Small should already have resigned over the "serious and significant crime".
According to the constitution, Small will have to step down if he receives a prison sentence, even if this is suspended. Any other sentence would leave Cllr Staplehurst to decide whether he should resign and a by-election held to replace him.

Lovage and Lettuce Soup
Lovage has such a distinct flavor that it does well when tamed by gentler ingredients—like the lettuce, cream, white rice, and leeks in this soup. Use young, glossy leaves; when lovage is too mature, it gets bitter and overpowering.

Hungary addresses Holocaust after accusations it 'whitewashed' past
By Marton Dunai
BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Hungarians collaborated with Nazis in sending nearly half a million Jews to their deaths, Hungary's president said on Sunday in a rare public acknowledgement of a war-time past that Jewish groups say is often glossed over.
Earlier on Sunday, an American historian said he was returning an award he received from the previous head of state in protest at what he called the government's attempt to erase Hungary's role in the Holocaust.
In a statement prepared for Monday's Holocaust Memorial Day, President Janos Ader said that if the war had gone according to the plans of Adolf Hitler and his Hungarian fascist allies, Jews would have been exterminated completely from Hungary.
"Auschwitz may be hundreds of kilometers from Hungary but it is part of Hungarian history," Ader wrote. "This death camp was the scene of the inhumane suffering, humiliation and death of nearly half a million of our compatriots."
Jewish groups have criticized the center-right government of Prime Minister Viktor Orban for what they see as its lackluster attempt to fight anti-Semitism.
A Jewish group has threatened to boycott Holocaust commemorations over plans to erect a monument to the German occupation in 1944. It said that pushed the blame for the genocide solely onto Germans, obscuring the role of Hungarians.
Orban, favorite to win re-election in April, has said he would do everything to stamp out growing anti-Semitism in a country where a far-right party, Jobbik, again openly uses anti-Semitic rhetoric and last November unveiled a statue of wartime leader Miklos Horthy, an ally of Hitler.
"Seventy years ago, after our nation's German occupation, the Nazi overlords and the Hungarian authorities that collaborated with them seemed to fulfill the will of Hitler's Nazi Germany," Ader wrote. Continued...

THank you...... It has been very weird since I moved. I have carried every day for the last year in NY and I moved to Florida and had to leave it at home or in the car. It is almost more relief than excitement.
How long did it take to get from the day you mailed in the application?
I mailed it March 18 with electronic prints. Over 90 days but I was an exception. I had a misdemeanor on my record. I didnt send the disposition because the directions said "violent misdemenor" and my final charge wasn't violent. I got a letter after around 45 days saying they needed it. I faxed it 2 days later and it looks like the license was issued June 10. It also had to be mailed to NY and then forwarded back here to FL. And on top of every thing, since my original charge was because of a fight (9 years ago,young and dumb) they had to write to NY to be sure it wasnt domestic and wait for them to respond. SOOOOOOOOOOO because I am an idiot it took this long.
I'm heading down there next week to get my electronic prints actually.
Glad you got yours though!

Football fans attending Wednesday night's FA Cup replay between Leeds United and Arsenal are being urged to arrive at Elland Road as early as possible.
A 40,000 capacity crowd is expected for the match, which kicks off at 8pm, and major roadworks on the motorways and routes around the ground have meant fans attending other high-profile fixtures have not arrived in time.
The turnstiles open at 6.30pm and a special bus service will offer return trips from the city centre directly to Elland Road for a small fee.
Licensed bars will be open inside the stands within the ground.
Chief Superintendent Mark Milsom is match commander for the fixture. He said: "Wednesday's match has all the hallmarks of a cracking cup tie, and the last thing we want is a replay of previous problems at major fixtures where the extra congestion on the roads and the roadworks have led to some fans missing much of the first half.
"If you're travelling to the match by car please allow extra time, and if you're using public transport it's a good idea to use the special service running from the city centre to the ground to arrive early."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Business-Minded Jessica Alba Announces Book Plans
Quite the busy lady these days, Jessica Alba was spotted out at her office in Santa Monica on Tuesday (March 20).
After tending to her new venture 'The Honest Company,' the 30-year-old actress was seen leaving with a family portrait of herself with her daughters and her husband, Cash Warren.
On top of being an actress and a mother, Jessica has just announced plans to release her first book, "The Honest Life," in 2013.
The how-to book shows others how to lead a more healthy and non-toxic life as she tries to do with her own family, as Miss Alba explained to People magazine, "I'm not extreme. This book is for people who are in the middle but want to create a healthier life, like me."
The "Spy Kids" actress added, "Everything in this book will be something meaningful that I've incorporated into our lives. I wanted some kind of handbook with all the information I was consuming so I could apply it in a practical way."
So what are some of the things you can expect to find? "Honor's favorite meatball recipe will be in there," Alba says, including other simple and fun projects to do at home such as the furniture refinishing she and husband Cash Warren did for their oldest daughter Haven's room.
The gorgeous entrepreneur hopes the literary offering will be "easy and fun and I want it to be really colorful."
Enjoy the pictures of Jessica Alba at her office in Santa Monica (March 20).

The 2.0 ROM is a zip file; the 2.1 ROM is not a zip, and seems awful small to be the complete ROM. Is 2.1 meant to be installed after you already have 2.0?
what i was told is that you need to add .zip at the end of the file. i did this and flashed it, but when i did it, it just says that im on the 2.0 version. the rom seems very nice and stable and with the built in rom tool box and the themes he has out makes it really cool. battery life seems to be about as good as dsk once you wipe batt stats and battery calibration. heres a full thread about the rom on rootzwiki

Hey y'all, i recently moved to San Diego and have always wanted a WRX so i was visiting a dealer down here and decided to trade in my Dodge Challenger 392 for a new 2013 Wrx STI sedan. I'm having a blast driving this baby around. I have about a 100 miles until i reach 1000 miles. I'm new to WRX's so i'm not sure what some good early mods for WRX's are. Im looking to spend around 1K a little after I get past 1000 miles so it would be awesome if someone could point me in the right direction. Glad to be in this family now.
All help is appreciated. Thanks,

The unpublished chapter of the Dolphin Report on its assessment of bids for the National Children's Hospital:
The decision about the location of the new children's hospital is not a simple one.
Its needs are not only for Dublin but nationally and for its co-location with an adult hospital.
The original decision was made in 2006.
Since then, through a number of reviews and reports, there has been a consistency of opinion regarding where it should be located and what type of adult hospital it should co locate with has been the subject of debate for as many years.
It not only replaces the three existing children's hospitals in Dublin but because of its size and pivotal role will be the centre for determining the national standards of care with which we treat our children in the future.
We received many offers and suggestions of sites, the majority of which were greenfield.
Should the minister and the Government decide to choose a greenfield site, we believe that it will need to include an adult teaching hospital, requiring very substantial investment of human and capital resources to develop over time into an adult tertiary hospital, with critical mass supported by leading edge research facilities and may have ramifications in terms of zoning, planning, procurement and time.
We are of the view that co-location is essential and trilocation optimal.
It is also important to note that 70 per cent of the patients attending the hospital will come from the greater Dublin area.
Therefore, we considered only those site proposals which were supported by a Dublin academic teaching hospital (DATH).
Within that group of hospitals there are different levels of subspecialties and academic research.
In 2006, the joint task force shortlisted three hospitals - St James's, the Mater and Beaumont Hospital because of their higher levels of clinical complexity.
These hospitals are still at that higher level with St James's now having the widest range of specialties.
However, all 3 have restricted sites to varying degrees, which they have addressed in their proposals.
This is not a stand alone decision.
In making it, a balance must be struck between the clinical and research synergies that the adult hospital can bring, verses the restrictions that an established site will impose.
Our assessments of the comparative strengths and weaknesses of the 6 potential co-location sites for the new children's hospital has shown that while there is no single perfect solution, some locations are more advantageous than others.
Therefore the decision must be based on key parameters including optimal clinical and research synergies, site suitability and planning risk together with cost and time benefits.
Hospitals proposals
We considered the proposals from the hospitals which made submissions to the group.
In their indicative costs some proposals have presented significant cost savings and have included the maternity hospital within the overall budget.
The proposal for the Mater site has been significantly reworked, especially in terms of its height.
It also includes the offer of the 1861 building (a protected structure) for purposes such as research and education. This will add space but not significantly on site capacity. Whether the site is sufficiently large to accommodate a high quality maternity hospital as well as a children's hospitals remains a concern.
Should the Government choose not to go ahead with the revised Mater proposal, we strongly recommend that they take into account in their deliberations the internationally recognised clinical and research platforms that the existing adult hospitals offer and the design and planning restrictions of exact sites. Details of which are outlined in Chapter 10.
From a clinical and academic perspective we identified St James's Hospital as the existing DATH that best meets the criteria to be the adult partner in co-location because it has the broadest range of national specialties and excellent research and education infrastructure. However, the proposed St James's plan offers the smallest site for construction of the new children's hospital, albeit with greater site capacity overall (See table 1 on page 48), has some drawbacks in terms of site suitability and is not without planning risk.
The site adjacent to the Coombe is large enough to accommodate the new children's hospital and to allow design flexibility. Furthermore, corridor-linked co-location of the new children's hospital to the existing Coombe Maternity Hospital (or a new maternity hospital at St James's Hospital) can establish the maternity co-location conditions for a level 4 neonatal intensive care unit as recommended by the 2008 KPMG report.
We believe that there are a number of possible solutions that could build on the strengths of the St James's and Coombe proposals given their proximity to each other if they presented a joint plan.
From a design and planning perspective the sites adjoining Connolly and the Coombe hospital offer the best potential for future expansion and a landscape setting.
In our view the 36 hectare site on the national sports campus lands proposed by Connolly Hospital offers an attractive parkland setting and practically limitless scope for future expansion.
Access by car is excellent and existing bus services could be upgraded to meet demands.
However, Connolly Hospital would need very substantial investments of human and capital resources to develop over time into an adult tertiary hospital with critical mass supported by leading edge research facilities and even if such resources could be made available, it could take several decades to achieve such high standards of clinical and research excellence.
The proposed integration with Beaumont and RCSI and the universities would have to be accelerated.
The site at Beaumont is located in a low rise housing area and may face difficulty in gaining approval for a large building up to 10 storeys high and in any event construction of the children's hospital cannot start until the existing multi-story public car park and other buildings are rebuilt elsewhere on the campus.
The design and layout of the new hospital on the Tallaght Hospital site would be significantly constrained by the proximity of an existing apartment complex.

ECB Says Economic Activity To Remain Weak In Eurozone
RTTNews - Thursday, the European Central Bank in its Monthly Bulletin said economic activity in the euro area over the remainder of this year is expected to remain weak. Looking ahead into next year, after a phase of stabilization, a gradual recovery with positive quarterly growth rates is expected, the latest bulletin for August revealed.
On August 6, the ECB had left its key interest rate, which is the interest rate on the main refinancing operations, untouched at record low of 1%. The bank has lowered the key interest rate by a total of three and a quarter percentage points since early October 2008.

I just bought a foreclosure and the previous owner cut the overhead cable from the house to the detached garage. The wire that's there is two #2 aluminum and a stranded bare aluminum. He cut it right at the weather head and left enough so that I can do a new splice and drop to the sub panel if it's the right kind of wire.
With every subpanel I've wired in the past I ran 2 hot conductors, a neutral, and a ground. I've never done any overhead wiring, but plenty of wiring within a building. The panel that's in the garage is in shambles and I can't even tell how it was hooked up originally, so I'll be replacing with a new 100 amp sub.
My questions:
Is it possible to wire a sub with the wire that's already in place? If so, how do you get 240 without the extra conductor?
If not, what type of wire do you use for an overhead application, as well as for the portion in the house until it leaves the house?
- The panel in the house is at the opposite end of where this line is currently run. So there's wire running from the house panel across the attic to a weather head, and then spliced to the overhead wire which runs to the garage.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer
Also, while I'm at it, the panel in the house is also a subpanel, because the main with the meter is a ranch panel on a pole about 75 feet from the house. The feeder comes in through the basement in 2" conduit and is 3 #2 aluminum, no bare ground. These were also cut where they enter the basement, so I need to splice them and continue the run to the panel in the house. I was planning on using the 3 existing wires as my 2 hots and neutral, and then running a ground rod from the panel for a ground. I tried to pull a ground through the conduit but there's no way that was happening.
Will this work without having a ground that goes back to the meter/main as long as I have a solid ground from the ground rod?
How would it have been hooked up originally that they only needed 3 wires? This house was built in 1974
Thanks again
Prior to the 2008 code cycle, 3 wire feeders to unattached structures were compliant as you can see. The main panel/service panel/disconnect is on the pole and the new code cycle would require the house and the garage be fed with 4 wires like you are accustomed to installing.
The question I have is where does the feeder/service for the garage originate from? The house or the pedestal main service panel/disconnect on the pole? Is there a breaker for each feeder? Or is it possible they extended the service to the house and the garage? Lets make sure about what you actually have before we give any advice.
Open the the panel on the pole an see how the house is fed. Or is this panel on the pole actually a disconnect? A disconnect for both house and garage?
So look into each panel and disconnect on the property and see what they were thinking. Are these feeders or service extensions to the house and garage? Let us know.
The feeder for the garage comes from the subpanel in the house.
I looked in the garage panel today too and saw that the wires are run 2 hots to the bus and the bare ground to a ground bar that has both grounds and neutrals.
I understand that under the current code cycle neutral and ground are supposed to be isolated. Because I'm just repairing what was already there, I can legally hook it up the way it was.
What is the down side to NOT isolating your neutral and ground?
12 Attachment(s)
You changed your mind since this?
I am going to have to look into this, maybe it was a state thing.
12 Attachment(s)
As I stand, you could never run a 3 wire feeder and re bond the neutral at a sub panel within the same structure, with detached structures, you could run a 3 wire feeder, re bond the neutral, as long as there were no continuous metallic paths bonded to the grounding system in each building or structure involved.
This is off the 2005 NEC, which my state is on, I still run a 4-wire feeder to remote structures even though I don't have to by code.
That is a good point, and I didn't notice that difference. I will have to check into this as I (personally) can't remember ever bonding the neutral in a detached sub.
I will agree and retract my previous post about it needing to be 4 wire.
Okay, so I found a thread that talked about why the neutral and ground are isolated and that all makes sense.
However, I am still going to temporarily repair the damage with the existing 3 wire feeds until I can do it right this fall.
So, what I gathered from the other thread was that for a detached structure with no metal connection to the other building, the 3 wire feed would have two hots connected to the bus, and the 3rd wire is attached to the neutral bar, which is then bonded to the panel, correct? And then the a ground rod is required, which is also connected to the bonded neutral bar NOT the ground bar, correct?
So, then the ground rod is a protection from lighting but not actually an equipment ground ??? So how is your equipment grounded??
Also, the overhead wire that is currently in place to the garage is two insulated conductors and one bare stranded aluminum. The bare aluminum is spliced to insulated conductors at both weather heads before entering each panel. Is that okay? Seems like it should be insulated the whole way, but it was obviously working that way for a long time, so I'm just wondering about that also.
Thanks again for the input

Interior cabinet latches require installation. If you're not handy with a screwdriver, a childproofing service can install locks and perform a safety assessment of your entire house. Contact the International Association for Child Safety (iafcs.com, 888-677-4227) to find a service near you.

I carry a USPc .40, and like it a bunch...
I've lost track of how many rounds have gone through it (multiple thousands... ) and have never experienced a failure of any kind. It's a great pointer in my hand and very accurate.
The only complaint I have with it is the rough texture of the grip next to bare skin when wearing IWB. I usually wear a t-shirt or "wife-beater" under the cover garment, and it rides comfortably.
Highly recommended!
