Lib hint at end to forced voting
Page Tools
A senior Howard Government minister is looking beyond the next election to use a continuing Senate majority to abolish compulsory voting.
Finance Minister Nick Minchin, a long-time campaigner for voluntary voting, said although it was Liberal Party policy, it could not be pressed in the current term because it was not argued in the 2004 campaign.
But he said he would like nothing more than to remove the "blight" of compulsion, and hoped to persuade the Coalition to take such a policy to the 2007 election, for implementation in the next term.
"Yes, you should vote," he said. "But you shouldn't be forced to vote. There are people after every election who go to jail because they won't vote, and they won't pay the fine as a matter of principle."
He told the national Young Liberals Convention in Hobart yesterday that in terms of party advantage, voluntary voting cut both ways. "But the basis of Labor opposition is their terror and fear their people won't come out to vote," he said
Under pressure from some Government MPs recently to reduce taxation, Senator Minchin rejected as unaffordable tax indexation or increasing the tax-free threshold.
Young Liberals voted to call on former prime minister Malcolm Fraser to resign his life membership of the party.
The motion's mover, West Australian Young Liberals' president Matthew Eggleston, said Mr Fraser's repeated "sledging" of the Howard Government showed disloyalty to the party.
The delegates were told by the federal Fisheries, Forests and Conservation Minister, Ian Macdonald, that while they might be the cream of Australia's young professionals and entrepreneurs, it was time for them to reach out to "the Kath and Kim" in suburban electorates who gave the party its stunning majority.

AXA chairman tells investors to wait
Page Tools
AXA Asia Pacific chairman Rick Allert has written to about 268,000 investors asking them to sit tight as a committee of independent directors reviews a proposed $3.1 billion bid by the company's French parent for the 48.3 per cent it does not hold.
Mr Allert, who announced the bid last Friday before the local management declared interim results, told investors the proposal was at a preliminary stage and "may not eventuate".
"The approach by AXA SA demonstrates their support for our Australian and Asian growth strategies, further evidenced by the outstanding results that we also announced last Friday," he said. "The results are a strong indicator of the success of the turnaround that has been achieved by AXA Pacific."
The Asia Pacific operation last week announced interim operating earnings of $163 million, up 20 per cent on last year's $135.6 million.
Mr Allert will chair the committee, which will include Brian Finn, a former chief executive of computer giant IBM, Paul Cooper, Michael Butler, Lin Xizhong, and Peter Masfen representing the New Zealand interest.
AXA SA, which holds 51.7 per cent of shares in the Asia Pacific operation, has offered $3.75 a share, reduced by the 5.25 per cent share dividend offered last Friday, payable half in cash and half in AXA SA shares. The offer will probably come as a scheme of arrangement, which means 75 per cent of shareholders will have to approve the deal for AXA to get it through. It also needs the approval of the Foreign Investment Review Board.
Broking houses said the offer would have to be sweetened if it was to be accepted by independent directors and shareholders, particularly after strong results for the Asian markets.
Shareholders may want a cash alternative to shares in a foreign company. ABN Amro is looking for a takeover valuation between $3.91 and $4.27. UBS has lifted its price target to $3.98. Credit Suisse First Boston said $3.75 was fair.

Downspipes without an exhaust upgrade
I am thinking about doing a tune on my 2012 X5 50i. I am also considering downpipes; but, I am not interested in a exhaust upgrade. I do not want a loud exhaust nor drone.
How much benefit will I see with downpipes and no exhaust upgrade? How much louder will it be with just downpipes?
Any input is appreciated.

BOSTON (AP) Ray Allen was still on the floor, knocked on his back, when the Los Angeles Lakers began hugging and chest-bumping under the 2008 NBA Championship banner that was earned at their expense.
"I wish we would have come here last year with this kind of attitude," said Pau Gasol, who scored 24 points with 14 rebounds Thursday night to lead the Lakers to a 110-109 overtime victory over Boston.
GAME REPORT: Lakers 110, Celtics 109
"Nobody backed down," he added. "We were as physical as anybody."
In a rematch of an NBA finals in which the Celtics outmuscled the Lakers to the title, Lamar Odom made a pair of free throws with 16 seconds left in overtime and Los Angeles held on with physical defense against Paul Pierce and Allen that prevented either All-Star from getting off a clean shot.
The loss snapped the Celtics' 12-game winning streak and dropped them to 0-2 against the best in the West. Boston trails the Lakers by percentage points for the best overall record in the NBA, and would lose a tiebreaker for home court advantage in the finals — if they both make it back.
"It would be great," Pierce said.
Kevin Garnett banged his fist on the table in agreement, and then interjected a reminder that seemed to be intended for the locker room across the hall: "We're the champs, man."
Kobe Bryant scored 26 points with 10 rebounds to help the Lakers take a five-game winning streak into Sunday's game against Cleveland. L.A. also snapped Boston's 19-game winning streak on Christmas Day and sent the Celtics into a 2-7 skid that is the worst stretch of the New Big Three era.
"These games are tough, and they're emotional games and then you play the next night," said Celtics coach Doc Rivers, whose team plays the New York Knicks on Friday night. "We'll try to muster it up and see what we have."
Pierce scored 21, and Allen had 22, but they both missed off-balance shots in the final seconds. Allen was knocked to the court at the buzzer while Boston fans clamored for a foul call, but none came.
Rajon Rondo scored 16 with 12 assists.
It was the Lakers' first visit to Boston since a 131-92 embarrassment in Game 6 of the NBA finals that clinched the Celtics' unprecedented 17th league championship. L.A. got a small measure of revenge on Christmas, but even then Boston played a more physical game.
"Coming down the streets, staying at the same hotel, I was up last night thinking about the game — wondering how my teammates would respond. It all came back," Bryant said. "Enough is enough. We were able to match their physical play."
There were two double-technicals — one of them after Bryant and Rondo were pushing and finger-pointing in the third — and enough shoving to pass for a playoff game, but both teams were tired when it ended. Garnett, who missed the previous two games with the flu, scored 16 before fouling out with 4:22 left in the fourth quarter.
Bryant, who scored 61 and 36 in his previous two games, hit three three-pointers in the fourth quarter, the last with 1:30 left in regulation and Pierce in his face to make it 101-100 — the Lakers' first lead of the half. But after Pierce made one of two free throws with 30 seconds left, Bryant tried to shoot over Pierce again and banged it off the rim.
After a timeout with 7.7 seconds left, Pierce dribbled the clock down before Bryant poked the ball away. Eddie House got it and put up a sideways, one-handed three-point attempt at the buzzer that wasn't close.
Bryant missed his last five shots of the game.
Gasol made one of two free throws to give the Lakers a 108-107 lead with 1:11 left, then Glen "Big Baby" Davis made a jumper — his only basket of the game after six misses. Kobe missed over Pierce, then Davis missed again and fouled Odom, who sank them both.
The Celtics got the ball to Pierce, but his shot was off. Rondo got the rebound and drew a foul, but it wasn't a shooting foul. The inbounds pass made it to Allen, but he was out of position and never got a good look.
Notes: Celtics coach Doc Rivers said center Brian Scalabrine (concussions) is out until at least the All-Star break. If Scalabrine has a recurrence of his symptoms, he could be out much longer. ... The Celtics assigned rookie guard J.R. Giddens to the Utah Flash of the developmental league. ... New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick sat courtside. Running back Kevin Faulk sat two rows behind him.

The price of gold in Sydney yesterday was USD$661.35 a fine ounce, up 75c on Wednesday's close, the Herald Sun reports. Gold miners were mixed; Newmont (ASX:NEM) added 6c to AUD$4.81, Newcrest (ASX:NCM) stepped back 33c to AUD$21.99, and Lihir (ASX:LHG) put on 4c at AUD$3.21.
Barrick Gold (NYSE:ABX) has sold three-quarters of its stake in South Africa's Gold Fields (NYSE:GFI), the world's fourth largest gold producer. As a result, shares in Gold Fields jumped 2.4% to R126.99, outperforming a 0.47% rise in the gold mining index, Mining Journal reports.
In the next few days gold may touch a low of USD$655 as the Monsoon season sets in in India, according to Darren Heathcote, head of trading at Investec Bank. Quoted by Livemint.com, Mr Heathcote said that while imports of bullion by India peak in May, coinciding with the local wedding season, the onset of the monsoon season traditionally weakens demand.
Canadian gold producer Ivanhoe Mines (NYSE:IVN) is likely to pursue a sale to strategic parntner Rio Tinto (ASX:RIO) once the two companies have reached an investment agreement to develop Mongonlian copper-gold assets, FT.com reports, quoting a source close to Ivanhoe.
"If Rio concludes what we agreed in October, their final investment…they are not interested in just a minority stake or even a majority stake, they are interested in the whole thing," said the source.
Newsroom reports that more than 10,000 jewelers across the Indian state of Maharashtra will close up shop on May 30 to participate in a 'Peace March' to government headquarters in Mumbai to demand heightened security measures for the trade. Maharashtra is India's leading state for the manufacture and sale of gold jewelry, and there have been nearly 40 robberies in the area over the last 11 months.
Spain has severed relations with Florida-based Odyssey Marine Exploration (AMEX:OMR) over the company's discovery of a wreck and subsequent export of gold and silver coins to the US, EUX TV reports. Spain argues that the company has not provided enough information about the nationality and whereabouts of the wreck, while Odyssey Marine claims the ship was found in international waters. The treasure on board the ship is said to be worth more than half a billion US dollars.

In other words, he addresses the Assembly and the world just to say everything is going to be okay.

Yeah, problem being we're trying to solve at least two different problems here: make contributor happier to contribute to PostgreSQL by giving them early feedback and releasing their code sooner rather than later, and having a time-based release. The two points contradicts exactly at the end of the cycle, when we have to decide we give the priority to the schedule or the feature set. Knowing that being late now means being even more late on next cycle, so contributions missing the boat are even more impacted. All of this is stating the obvious one more time, but I think that's the reason why the rule is not written on any wall, and why nobody tried to enforce it in any way yet. >> What I think have been >> said before is that doing so would not help stabilizing the tree before >> release. > > Sorry, I'm not following this sentence.

It may > not be very popular, though. This has already said before, but let's try it again. One way to solve the problem could be to have a dedicated release management team, taking responsibilities after last alpha of the cycle until release: open items, getting to beta, then fixing any bug testers find, some advocacy people for having more testers, etc, then release candidates management and then .0 release. While this team would work on this, we could maybe have the next cycle open for development, with its first CommitFest happening while 8.5.0 is not yet out the door. Of course it has been said more than once that some resources will have to be there on both the teams, and that we want people to dedicate to beta testing rather than new features (which is always more fun). My guess is that current state of affairs is not working that well, forcing people to concentrate on stabilizing current beta will push them to procrastinate if that's not what they want to do. If instead they are working some more on their next patch, what do we lose? Now running the release management parallel to the first one or two commit fest of the next cycle would mean less resources to review and commit that ones, but maybe a better overall average. The advantages of doing so, if not clear, are that developments never stops and it's even easier to return a patch in the last commitfest, we know when next one begins. Frankly, forcing people into release management and quality assurance when they do not want to do it does not sound the best way to offer the best stable code possible at .0 time. And opening a commitfest were it's possible nothing will get committed (but only reviewed) because resources are not available sounds only fair. If you really want your stuff committed, go help stabilizing the beta. Regards, -- dim

USC Head Coach Frank Martin suspended for one game
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
University of South Carolina head men's basketball coach Frank Martin has been suspended from his coaching duties for Saturday's game at Mississippi State, Athletics Director Ray Tanner announced today. Martin will not accompany the team to Starkville.
"The one-game suspension is a result of inappropriate verbal communication as it relates to the well-being of our student-athletes," said Tanner.
Associate head coach Matt Figger will serve as acting head coach when the Gamecocks (11-19, 4-13 SEC) take on the Bulldogs (13-17, 3-14 SEC) in the final regular season game of the year. Game time is set for 4 p.m. ET.

They say Libya will become a humanitarian calamity if col. Muammar Gaddafi isn't stopped now.
col. Yuval Bazak, former head of the Israeli army's tactics department, put it more bluntly.
Libyan rebels said Monday they had captured a third son of col. Muammar Gaddafi.
When col. Tombe asked Neubauer what she wanted, she said that she wanted to stay in the Air Force and go back to weather school.
col. Rabena promised that his center would address "the mind, body, and spirit."
You will get a pilot from col. Nixon's regt to direct them thither.
In neither of these histories (except Lincoln's) does the name of col. Bigelow occur.
At this juncture, a rebel rode into my lines and inquired for col. DeMorse.
It is understood that col. Lawrence will commence this benevolent and patriotic work in the spring or early summer.
Upon this col. Bigelow ordered a part of his men to fire upon them.

The Sopranos Plot That Dare Not Speak Its Friggin' Name, Joe Gannascoli Spotted Gay Mob Story Then, Bottom-Bing! Gandolfini's Offer, Refused: 'You Want Me to Talk to Chase?'
Last week, the actor Joseph Ganna-scoli—who, as Vito on The Sopranos, is living out this television season's only great tragic love story—was tooling around Lynbrook, Long Island, in a new silver Mercedes R350 with a back seat filled with flowering plants. He was wearing a Giants sweatshirt and sneakers, and was taking a reporter on a tour through his neighborhood's quiet maze of split-level houses and manicured, postage-stamp lawns. He pulled up in front of an unassuming two-story white house, which he and his wife, Diana, moved into last August—the first house the actor has owned, after letting go of a rent-controlled apartment in his old stomping ground of Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, after 25 years.
Mr. Gannascoli, who at 47 is still a large man even after losing 160 pounds, removed the plants from the back of the Mercedes and hung them carefully off the branches of a tree on the front lawn. He was stepping gingerly after undergoing hip surgery five weeks earlier. He proudly pointed out some yard work: a mosaic-tiled bird bath and, plunked down in the grass, a large boulder that he thinks looks like a bear. Looking at the boulder, he paused and said, "How long till they write 'fag' on it?"
For these days, Mr. Gannascoli is known to Sopranos watchers as "Gay Vito" (or even GaVito, in certain exotic circles). Vito's reluctant coming-out story line has locked up more Monday-morning chatter than all of Bill Paxton's polygamist wives and Desperate Housewives shenanigans combined. He is, simply put, a sensation.
There's something about the sight of Mr. Gannascoli dancing gleefully in a biker's cap in a leather bar, or going on the lam to a gay Shangri-La (in this case, "Live Free or Die" New Hampshire) and falling in love with the handsome mustached cook from the diner—"Johnny Cakes"—that have given TV viewers that rare feeling that they are watching something new. In the hyper-masculine world of organized crime, with its intricately nuanced male taboos—it's O.K. to get misty-eyed at your daughter's wedding, but it's not O.K. to cry if the Feds are bundling you back to prison—Sopranos creator David Chase has introduced a character whose outsized vulnerability will surely force a defining choice for the gentler, back-from-a-coma Tony Soprano.

The Beach Club Resort - Bellstar Hotels & Resorts
Top Luxury Hotel
A new and clean hotel right on the beach with underground parking. We had a small room on the ground floor facing the beach. Some rooms would not have a view.
Friendly and helpful staff. Great location. A little dirty especially in the hall. Food trays not picked up and birds spreading food.
It's best feature was it's proximity to the beach and easy travel to parks and falls The kitchen unit was quite small and had no cutlery or dishes, these were provided once we asked reception. The changing rooms at the pool were small,with only one shower.
The room was so amazing, we felt as though we didn't want to leave it.
The staff were friendly and courteous. Our room was very clean and comfortable with a sea view. The check in and check out process were both very fast.
The rooms, although a little dated, were large, cozy and had a beautiful waterfront view. The proximity to the beach, pool, spa and hottubs is fantastic! The restaurant, Fire and Ice, used to be a great draw with its large fish tank and tasty menu, however they have removed the fish tank (huge draw for kids) and the food and atmosphere are mediocre at best.
Beautiful view Amazing rooms. Large. Clean
Comfort, hiking trails, gourmet food close by For some reason. The booking.com reservation didn't come through- it was frustrating for us in that I had to email them the booking confirmation, and this was supposed to be easy... But it did work out in the end. :)
Large rooms, nice property and nice facilities. Not worth the money. A super dark room, paper thin walls, unvaccummed floor and an overgrown patio. Coffee Whitner is something I would expect to find at a budget motel, not in a "resort" @175 a night. Also No complimentary coffee or tea in the main lobby...lame. When I came 10 years ago, I was very impressed, however this time I wasn't itching to go home and tell all of my friends about my weekend getaway.
Great sized room, heated bathroom floors, nice setting Very bad sound proofing between rooms. Small TV Poorly lit pathway and suite number signage.
My family and I enjoyed our stay. The suite was well set up with all the ammenities we needed for our stay (kitchen features and items, separate lounging area and bedroom). Travelling with children, it was nice to let them sleep in or have their space while we had ours. The view from the room was breath taking, the beach was great. Shopping and recreational places were close by. We would definately stay at this hotel again and stay for longer next time.

here's the actual pic of the kit. shown are 2 halo rings and 1 inverter, the other inverter and ring is on my car now, I installed them just to do the testing. :)
Guys, the kit is selling as it is, 3 halo rings and 2 inverters, NO RELAYS! for power source you have to the following options, DRLs, fog lights, or side-marker lights. Basically you just need to find a + & - terminal to connect to the inverters....

BTW, this is the installation instructions in PDF files, the english version will come out soon.
update: the broken ring is being replace by a new ring which is on the way! so there's going to be 4 halo rings and 2 inverters!
Oh my goodness.
Binder clips to secure the rings? What happens the first time you brake hard or accellerate, and the rings, which are dangling by the wires, are slammed against the headlight or the beauty trim? SNAP.
Good luck with the sale though. I understand why you're selling...

April 8, 2013
FRESNO, Calif. - The University of Nevada women's tennis team continued its hot streak over the weekend, winning its match on Saturday against Air Force and on Sunday against Colorado State, both by a score of 6-1.
The Wolf Pack now sits at 9-4 (1-1 MW) after the victories over the Mountain West foe Falcons (12-7, 1-3 MW) and Rams (3-11). Nevada racked up 16 victories over the two matches, eight on both days. Both days, Nevada swept the three doubles matches to win the doubles point, and seized five of the six singles matches. Senior Emma Verberne's singles winning streak has now reached twelve matches, and she has still not lost a set since Feb. 8. On Saturday she rolled past Tiffany Tran of Air Force 6-0, 6-1, and then cruised past Natalie Heffron of the Rams 6-2, 6-2.
"Emma's winning streak is extremely impressive," head coach Guillaume said. "But more importantly, it's driving the team. It's giving them all the confidence they need to go out there and play as well as they have been."
Michelle Okhremchuk snatched two of her own victories, and has now won her past three singles contest. She powered past Christine Molina of the Falcons and Abbey Stevens in straight sets respectively, 6-1, 6-4. Senior Sophie Stevens was victorious in her two singles matches, both in straight sets against Hannah Dake of Air Force 6-3, 6-0, and Kaley Schultz of the Rams 6-3, 6-3. Juliette Legendre took her two singles matches with a victory over Mary Meyers of the Falcons 6-1, 7-6(4), and Mollie Cooper 6-1, 6-1. Caroline Konigsfeldt seized a victory of her own against Anastasia Hueffner in straight extended sets 7-6(2), 7-6(4). Sheila Smiley picked up a victory of her own against Adriana Wojakowska, rolling past her in straight sets 6-3, 6-3.
Nevada was six-for-six in doubles matches over the two days, led by Okhremchuk and Verberne from position one. The pair cruised past Dake and Melissa Cecil 8-2 before they rolled past Heffron and Wojakowska by the same score. Stevens and Legendre snatched two doubles victories of their own, getting past Molina and Natasha Rizvi 8-6 before bouncing Cooper and Stevens 8-2. The final two victories came from the pair of Smiley and Konigsfeldt, toppling the couple of Tran and Marcelli Magday 8-2 before they squeezed past Maddie Buxton and Lauren Pick 8-7(6).
The Wolf Pack is in action again on Monday against rival UNLV beginning at 2 p.m.

Moscow (AFP) Feb 06, 2013
Russian explorers claimed a record Wednesday in diving to the bottom of a remote lake at the coldest time of the year but said they could not find its most famed inhabitant, a mythical Loch Ness-style monster.
The team dived to the bottom of the remote Labynkyr lake in the Yakutia region of Siberia in the middle of winter, with the outside temperature minus 45 degrees Celsius (minus 49 Fahrenheit), local authorities said in a statement.
The lake is in the region of the Oimyakon village in Yakutia, which is the coldest inhabited place on earth and where temperatures have been known to exceed minus 70 C.
"A world record has been established. For the first time in history, a human being has carried out a dive in the toughest place on earth at the coldest time of the year," the local Yakutia authorities said in a statement.
They said that the team had gathered unique material about climactic systems in the permafrost region.
The remote lake is shrouded in mystery largely because of reports from a Soviet-era expedition which claimed to have seen a mysterious animal that some believed to be a relic of the dinosaur era.
The episode gave rise to the lake's nickname as the "Russian Loch Ness" after the Scottish loch which is also home to a mythical and so far unconfirmed beast.
The team "did not meet a monster at the bottom of the lake," the Russian Geographical Society said, adding that it was trying to register the achievement in the Guinness Book of Records.

Chief Keef Will Feed & "Clean Up After" Horses For His Community Service
from rhymeswithsnitch
Chief Keef has been ordered to do 60 hours of community service at a local Chicago equestrian center.
...and Chief Keef thought rehab was horseshit. The Chicago rapper was hit with 60 hours of community service following his arrest for speeding earlier this year, and he's finally got his placement-- at an equestrian center.
According to TMZ, the GBE rapper will feed and groom the animals, as well as clean up after them. The center Sosa will be working at is meant to provide "physical and occupational therapy for people with disabilities," and is located within the Chicago area.
Of course, Keef is still in a drug treatment program for the next 90 days due to a probation violation. No word yet on when he will begin his work at the center.

Pizza a Metro in Phoenix Opens Second Location in Gilbert
A Pizza a Metro pie with fennel sausage, broccoli, and mozzarella.
Nikki Buchanan
For years Pizza a Metro on the city's west side has been an out of the way but favorite spot for wood-fired pizzas and scratch-made Italian specialties. The restaurant, formerly owned by Maurizio Benforte, is known for its meter-long pizzas -- in fact, that's where the restaurant gets its name, which translates to "pizza by the meter."
Well, there's good news for East Valley-ites who want to get in on this Italian cuisine action. Pizza a Metro has opened a second location of the popular pizzeria in Gilbert. The new Pizza a Metro is located at 832 S. Greenfield Road, on the southwest corner of Greenfield and Warner.
See also: 13 Favorite Pizza Joints in Greater Phoenix (Slideshow)
The Gilbert location of Pizza a Metro takes over the space formerly occupied by Via, a short-lived restaurant that served wood-fired pizzas, pasta, and paninis. Prior to that the space was home to Tutti Santi, which still has three other locations around the Valley.
Pizza a Metro opened in a west Phoenix strip mall in 2007. The 20-seat restaurant serves pizzas, pastas, and other Italian favorites such as wood-fired calamari and tiramisu. Its popularity stems in part from the reasonably-priced fare and cozy atmosphere.
The Gilbert restaurant will serve a similar menu to that of the original restaurant.
Editor's Note: This post has been edited to reflect the fact that Maurizio Benforte is apparently no longer an owner of Pizza a Metro. Pizza a Metro 832 S. Greenfield Road, Gilbert 480-632-7777

A review into the controversial part night lighting scheme, where areas of Hertfordshire are plunged into darkness over night, concluded that it had been a success.
Hertfordshire County Council overview and scrutiny committee met on Tuesday to review the project.
The decision to turn off the county's streetlights between midnight and 6am was made in 2010, in order to save money and energy.
Since then it has attracted derision from residents across the county, concerned with public safety and a perceived increase in criminal activity.
Hertfordshire is one of the biggest lighting authorities in the country, consuming 42 million units of electricity, producing 23 tonnes of carbon, and running up an annual bill of £6 million in maintenance.
Peter Simpson, senior asset manager of the scheme, said: "Street lighting was 10 per cent of the council's highways budget, and 40 per cent of that is the cost of energy.
"The cost of energy is only going to go up, and that is a major risk for any authority.
"Part night lighting has reduced this by 26 per cent, and it has reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 15.3 per cent."
Although the project cost £3.75 million, it has so far saved 31 million units of electricity, which would have cost the council £1.8 million.
Carbon emissions, which will be taxed at £16 a tonne by 2014, have dropped to 17,000 tonnes.
The figures for road traffic collisions recorded between midnight to 6am, showed an increase in two divisions in Dacorum and Broxbourne, of 94 per cent and 230 per cent respectively.
However, only one of these claims was on a road affected by the scheme, and the committee concluded that there were no road safety concerns in connection with the scheme.
The committee then heard from Karl Edwards, from the East of England Ambulance Trust, and Simon Brown, from Hertfordshire Fire and Rescue Service.
Neither could find any evidence of part-night lighting impacting their response.
Michael Rhead from Hertfordshire Constabulary examined recorded crime in four, six-month periods, from September to February, spanning 2009 to 2012.
County-wide, the numbers have decreased year on year from 32,673 in 2009/10 to 25,526 in 2012/13.
Mr Rhead concluded by saying: "There is a fear of crime, but crime levels have not increased broadly.
"Hertfordshire remains one of the safest counties to live and Hertfordshire Police remains one of the top performing constabularies."
Suzanne Alford from the "Turn Our Street Lights Back On" Facebook group, which has 1,380 members, then gave a presentation.
She has collected a petition of more than 5,000 signatures, 500 from her housing estate in Borehamwood.
She said: "I am here to represent the human element. It was wholly undemocratic and dictatorial to not consult residents.
"It discriminates against teenagers coming back from nightclubs, and shift workers, a lot of whom are poorly paid and are now having to put up with being plunged into darkness.
"I like to go on late-night walks and this restricts my freedom of movement and is effectively a curfew.
"We are a 24/7 society, people have differing sleeping patterns and none of this was taken into consideration.
"We want a flexible response from the county council, and some light at the end of the tunnel to help people who are out at those times. Give us some hope."
By the end of the meeting, the committee was satisfied the part-night lighting scheme had saved money and was more environmentally friendly.
Councillors were also happy there had been no impact on road safety or criminality since the scheme's inception.
A report containing recommendations for LED lighting to be investigated, and to allow more flexibility in which streets are included in the scheme, will be given to the cabinet member before the end of the month.

How Morally Dense Is John Edwards?
In Thursday's Washington Post, reporter Michael Leahy talks to friends of disgraced senator John Edwards, who's morally dense enough to complain that he's being isolated as the Democrats still honor other notorious adulterers like Bill Clinton and John F. Kennedy. Treatment of him is so "unflinchingly horrible" -- and yes, Bill Clinton is still drawing Democratic hosannas and liberal-media shoe-polish interviews.
Earth to Edwards: First, there's the never-made-it-to-president thing. But Edwards can't seem to absorb the cheating-on-wife-dying-of-cancer thing as the gold medal of self-absorption:
His confusion extended to the latest chapter in the drama — criminal charges alleging that in an effort to conceal his affair during the height of his 2008 presidential campaign, he illegally arranged for secret contributions of about $1 million to take care of Hunter's needs as she prepared to give birth to their daughter, Quinn. Sometimes his painful bouts of self-analysis turned to frustration over his belief that he had been singled out among a long list of philandering politicians, living and dead, for pariah status.
"He knows he made mistakes," [Glenn] Bergenfield says on the eve of Edwards's trial, which is set to begin Thursday with jury selection. "But John thinks that the treatment of him is so unflinchingly horrible and that what he did is not so different from what others did — JFK, Clinton, the whole rogues' gallery. We've had this conversation about his situation, and I remember he did compare it to Clinton. He said, 'I did a horrendous thing, but I don't know why I'm getting such an unforgiving treatment when you think of what other people have done.' "
The Post just left that lying there, surely calculating that its readers can figure out why that argument is stupid and self-pitying.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/10/2011 (2101 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
MONTREAL - The two sides battling for Arturo Gatti's fortune have returned to their respective corners as a judge begins to deliberate who will get the hotly contested money.
The civil trial pitting the late boxing champion's widow against his mother and brother in a bitter dispute over two wills with different beneficiaries wrapped up in Montreal on Thursday.
At stake: as much as $3.4 million, although that amount has probably continued to dwindle in recent weeks.
Gatti, a popular Canadian pugilist nicknamed "Thunder" who could withstand severe punishment in the ring, was found dead of an apparent suicide at a Brazilian resort in 2009. He was 37.
The trial, which began in early September, featured many glancing blows between both sides but no knockout punch.
Amanda Rodrigues, Gatti's Brazilian-born widow, argued throughout the proceedings she should inherit the estate because of a 2009 will signed in Montreal three weeks before his death.
But the Gatti clan countered that with claims Rodrigues pressured the boxer into signing the 2009 will and should be declared unworthy of inheritance.
Rodrigues' lawyer said the family didn't prove that in court.
"There's not an ounce of proof in anything that was presented before the court that would represent reprehensible behaviour on the part of Amanda Rodrigues,'' lawyer Pierre-Hugues Fortin said outside the courtroom.
''Therefore, she should not be declared unfit to inherit.
"We came here to plead the case and my client's position is crystal clear — the estate should go to her in its entirety."
Gatti's mother, Ida, and brother, Fabrizio, say a 2007 will signed in New Jersey reflects the boxer's true wishes. But they haven't been able to find a signed copy and allege Rodrigues, 25, is behind its disappearance.
The family has said it doesn't want any money for itself but is keen for the estate to be split between Gatti's two children — Sofia, a daughter from a previous relationship, and Arturo Jr., his son with Rodrigues.
"The Gatti family has told you from the beginning that it's not a question of money,'' family lawyer Carmine Mercadante said outside court.
''They believe what they believe. It was always a question of principle: they feel Arturo would have never signed that kind of will."
Before taking the case under advisement, Superior Court Justice Claudine Roy asked the lawyers how the estate should be divided if both wills are deemed invalid.
Roy did not mention when she expected to rule, but joked to lawyers not to expect a decision Friday. She will have to go over the testimony of 30 witnesses and consider jurisprudence.
By law, she has six months to render a decision.
The trial was overshadowed at times by events outside the Montreal courtroom.
Just days into the proceedings, a probe into Gatti's death concluded he had been killed. That inquiry was paid for by his former manager, Pat Lynch.
Brazilian authorities said following the report they'd take a second look at the case.
Then a wrongful-death suit was launched in New Jersey by Erika Rivera, the mother of Gatti's daughter. That froze Gatti's liquid assets. Rivera later joined the Montreal case as a plaintiff with the Gatti family.
Meanwhile, three television documentaries aired in the United States and Canada exploring the boxer's death. Those projects depicted the boxer as highly depressed and potentially suicidal.
Gatti's family does not accept the conclusion of Brazilian authorities that he committed suicide. Results of a second autopsy conducted in Quebec have not yet been released.
Roy said during the trial the boxer's fortune had dwindled to about $3.4 million, but that the money is being eaten up by various legal attacks on the estate.
She urged both sides to try to settle but negotiations failed.
