A MULTI-million pound project to upgrade one of Worcester's busiest roads is essential, a council boss has said.
Work on the £8 million improvement project on the A440 Southern Link Road, which will eventually see it dual tracked, began a month ago.
The 12-month scheme will see the Ketch roundabout upgraded along with the road towards the Norton roundabout dual tracked in a bid to cut congestion and improve journey times on a route which carries more 30,000 vehicles each weekday.
Worcestershire County Council says travel time between the Powick to Whittington section of the route currently takes around 13 and-a-half minutes during the morning rush-hour.
"Work has progressed well over the first few weeks on this important project - the first phase of a clear vision we have," said Cllr Simon Geraghty, Worcestershire County Council's deputy leader Cllr Simon Geraghty.
"More than 30,000 vehicles use the A4440 every weekday and the situation will get worse over the coming years if nothing is done.
"This first stage will bring immediate benefits but also forms part of our wider plan to ensure the area is 'Open for Business'.
"Everything is being done to keep disruption to an absolute minimum and I'd like to thank people for their patience. It's very much appreciated."
So far, contractors have completed the excavation, removal and surfacing of the Ketch roundabout.
The next phases will include drainage works and earth works to prepare for the construction later this year.
Overnight closures are planned next Monday and Tuesday (June 9 and 10).
Originally built in the 1980s, the Southern Link Road is one of the most heavily used roads in Worcestershire.
The council says that a predicted growth in travel could see a 30 - 40 per cent increase in journey times by 2026 should no improvement work be done.

Cream-Style Corn Recipe
4 2 2
I was raised on a farm in this small rural community. Although I'm not living on a farm at present, I'm still a country girl at heart! When I shared some fresh corn with a neighbor, she shared this recipe with me...I've found it's the best way to retain the corn's crisp sweet flavor after freezing.
Recommended: 75 Delicious Ways to Eat Corn on (and off) the Cob
VERIFIED BY Taste of Home Test Kitchen
- 18 cups fresh corn, divided
- 2 cups milk
- 1 tablespoon pickling salt
- 1/2 cup butter, cubed
- 1/3 cup sugar
- In a food processor, process half of the corn until creamy. Combine with remaining ingredients in a large baking pan. Cover and bake at 325° for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until heated through, stirring frequently. Yield: 2 quarts.
Editor's Note: Use this recipe in the "Hot Corn Bread", Sage Corn Muffins and Zesty Corn Custard in Harvest cookbook.

"I have not tried this yet and would like to know if the 18 cups of corn is correct. It certainly sounds like too much. Will give it a shot and will be back with my review. Sounds like a winner!"
Reviewed Jun. 27, 2008
"The BEST! I have been freezing creamed corn for years, and this is the best yet. I think there may be a quantity typo though. The 18 cups of corn plus butter and milk yielded more like 36 half-cup servings, which required a Dutch oven. Also, no sugar was needed, since the corn came straight from the field this morning."

What is THE RIDE?
THE RIDE paratransit service provides door-to door, shared-ride transportation to eligible people who cannot use fixed-route transit (bus, subway, trolley) all or some of the time because of a physical, cognitive or mental disability.
THE RIDE is operated by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) in compliance with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Under the ADA, paratransit functions as a 'safety net' for people whose disabilities prevent them from using public transit. It is not intended to be a comprehensive system of transportation that meets all the needs of persons with disabilities, and it is distinct from medical or human services transportation. You will travel with other customers going in the same general direction.
Accessible vehicles are used to serve persons with disabilities, including those who use wheelchairs and scooters. Requests for preferred type vehicles will not be honored. THE RIDE operates 365 days a year generally from 5 AM - 1 AM in fifty-eight (58) cities and towns. For RIDE trips with origin and destination within 3/4 mile of fixed-route service that operates outside of these hours, or in other municipalities within 3/4 miles of MBTA bus service, extended RIDE service is available.
Back to Top
New or recertifying applicants to THE RIDE must apply for or renew their eligibility by appearing in-person for an interview with a Mobility Coordinator. Call THE RIDE Eligibility Center at 617-337-2727 for an appointment. Office hours are Monday - Friday, 8AM - 5PM, or evenings by request.
In-person interviews allow applicants to more clearly explain their disability and how it affects their ability to use fixed route buses, subways, and trains. The eligibility process is not a medical determination of a disability; it is a determination about the range of transportation options available to you.
Please bring the following items to the interview (if applicable):
- Your phone number (home, cell, work, emergency)
- Your street and mailing addresses
- Your health care provider contact information (name, phone, fax)
- Mobility devices that are used, including power and manual wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, canes, etc.
- Optional:
- List of current medications
- Statement from health care provider regarding disability
- Visual Acuity or Field of Vision statement from a vision care provider, if vision is impaired
- Diagnosis statement from mental health care provider, if applicant has a psychiatric condition
Free transportation to and from the interview for applicants and up to one other person will be arranged by the THE RIDE Eligibility Center. Visitor parking is also available.
THE RIDE Eligibility Center is now located at:
1000 Massachusetts Avenue - 2nd flr
Boston, MA 02118
Applicants will receive written notification of the eligibility determination within 21 days of completing the application process; if you haven't received written notification within 21 days of your interview, please call THE RIDE Eligibility Center. If you disagree with the decision, you have a right to appeal.
Back to Top
Eligibility for out of area visitors
Visitors to the Boston area who wish to use THE RIDE should call THE RIDE Eligibility Center at 617-337-2727 (voice/relay) or email@example.com. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) allows you to travel as a visitor for 21 days in a 12-month period. Please provide a copy of your ADA Paratransit Certificate of Eligibility from your home transit agency, along with your contact information while in the area. Any visitor who does not have certification of ADA paratransit eligibility from their home agency, or if they are in an area without paratransit services or ADA, (i.e. international visitors), THE RIDE Eligibility Center will request additional information such as; the their home place of residence, address where they will be staying along with contact information while in the area, mobility device used, letter from their licensed health care provider, etc.
Back to Top
The local one-way ADA fare for each registered passenger or guest when booking 1-7 days in advance is $3.15.
One-way fares for premium non-ADA trips for each registered passenger or guest is $5.25. This applies when the trip origin and/or destination is greater than 3/4 miles from MBTA bus or subway service and outside of the core areas, or for same-day trip requests or changes, except for trip time negotiation. Reservationists will confirm the fare when you schedule a trip.
A Personal Care Assistant (PCA) accompanying a registered user is not charged a fare. One other person may travel as a guest. Additional guests are allowed if space is available. Any guest is charged the applicable fare as noted above. PCAs and guests must travel to and from the same destination at the same time as the registered user.

Scheduling RIDE trips
RIDE service is provided by four contractors under contract to the MBTA. The RIDE Access Center (TRAC), managed by Global Contact Services, provides reservations, scheduling and dispatching while Greater Lynn Senior Services (GLSS), National Express Transit(NEXT) and Veterans Transportation LLC(VTS) provide the service on the street with drivers and vehicles. The Core Area is served by all contractors and includes Boston, Brookline, Cambridge and Somerville. A customer can book a round trip from any area into the core area without a transfer. A customer booking a trip from the core area to a location outside of core area must call that area's provider. However, if a customer books a trip within the core area, the customer may call any of the service providers. To schedule trips, please call The RIDE Access Center (TRAC) or VTS until they are transitioned under TRAC. Customers may be able to make reservations online; ask TRAC/VTS for details.
Reservations Hours: 8:30 AM - 5 PM, 7 days per week, including holidays. Trips may be booked from 1 to 7 days in advance.
North Area: The RIDE Access Center - TRAC/GLSS
844-427-7433 (voice, toll-free) or 857-206-6569 (TTY, toll-free)
TRAC/GLSS also serves trips to/from the "border communities" of Burlington, Medford, Winchester and Woburn as long as one end of the trip is located within one of the non-core area communities listed above.
West Area: Veterans Transporation Services - VTS
877-765-7433 (voice, toll-free) or 888-553-8294 (TTY, toll-free)
The West Area also includes small portions of Billerica and Wellesley that are within ¾ miles of MBTA bus service.
VTS also serves trips to/from the "border communities" of Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Melrose, Needham, Reading, Stoneham, and Wilmington, as long as one end of the trip is located within one of the non-core area communities listed above.
South Area: The RIDE Access Center - TRAC/NEXT GLSS
844-427-7433 (voice, toll-free) or 857-206-6569 (TTY, toll-free)
The South Area also includes small portions of Abington, Avon, Brockton and Stoughton that are within ¾ miles of MBTA bus service during operating hours.
TRAC/NEXT also serves trips to/from the "border community" of Newton as long as one end of the trip is located within one of the non-core area communities listed above.
Trips to appointments should be scheduled by arrival time. This is to ensure that you are scheduled to arrive before your appointment. Return trips are scheduled by departure time to ensure that we allow for you to conclude your appointment. Requested arrival and return times must be at least one hour apart.
Please notify the contractor if you will be traveling with a PCA, guest(s), child or service animal. Infants and small children must ride in a federally approved child passenger restraint until they are at least 5 years old and weigh more than 40 pounds. Children weighing more than 40 pounds but less than 8 years old or less than 4'9" tall must ride in a booster seat. School transportation of minors (Grades K-12) is not provided.
You may review or change trips one to seven days in advance of your trip, up until 5 PM of the day before service. After 5PM, trips for the following day are scheduled and customers are called to confirm their pickup times. If you do not receive a call by 9PM, call your contractor to be sure the trip has been scheduled.
Back to Top
Trip Negotiations
If, during callbacks the night before a trip, you receive a promised pick-up/drop-off time that does not work for you, you may negotiate trip times with your RIDE contractor. Please call your contractor as soon as possible. Some changes are not considered negotiations and will incur a premium non-ADA fare rate. These include, but aren't limited to, changes requested less than one hour before a trip, rescheduling a missed trip, rescheduling at least 30 minutes earlier or later than the originally requested time, changes to pick-up or drop-off locations. Some requests may not be accommodated.
Back to Top
Trips spanning multiple service areas may require a transfer trip, except for certain trips to border communities. The contractor serving your city or town can arrange transfers for trips to other MBTA service areas. You will remain on your vehicle until the actual transfer to the other vehicle takes place and then continue on your trip.
Back to Top
Travel times
THE RIDE travel time should be comparable to fixed route travel times, including the time necessary to travel to the bus stop, wait for the bus, ride time, transfers, and travel from the final stop to the ultimate destination. Travel times may increase due to inclement weather, traffic, or diverting to pick up another customer who missed a return pick-up.
Cancelling trips and No-Show/Late Cancellation Policy
Please cancel trips as early as possible so that THE RIDE can schedule efficiently and improve service for all RIDE customers. Use TRAC(GLSS/NEXT) or VTS web sites or call them directly.
Customers will be considered as "no-show/late cancel" (NSLC) if they do not appear within 5 minutes after the scheduled pick-up time or do not cancel with at least one hour's notice to contractor. No-show/late cancellations are considered a pattern or practice when a customer reserves 7 or more trips within any month and no-shows or late cancels 20 percent or more of those scheduled trips, or if there are more than 7 no-shows or late cancellations in a month. A pattern or practice of no-show or late cancellation trips is a policy violation and will result in written notification and possible suspension.
No shows or late cancellations for reasons beyond a customer's control such as reported to your contractor, or trips which are missed due to operator error, shall not be a basis for determining that a pattern or practice exists resulting in a violation.
The following actions shall apply to violations that occur within the same 12 month rolling period:
|1st Violation
|Written Warning
|2nd Violation
|1 Week Period
|3rd Violation
|2 Week Period
|4th or Subsequent Violations
|8 Week Period
Information on how to appeal the warning or suspension, either written or in-person, will be included in notification to customers. The appeal must be complete and postmarked within 30 calendar days of the date the warning notice or suspension notice was issued. Incomplete appeals will not be processed.
No suspension will take place if a customer has filed an appeal in accordance with the instructions and deadlines noted in the policy and the Appeals Board has not determined the outcome of the appeal. The decision of the Appeals Board is final.
Prior to sending warning or suspension letters, the MBTA will review all NSLCs to ensure that the process was followed properly and an accurate count is represented. Any NSLC that is found to be in error will be removed.
Back to Top
On the day of your trip
Be ready to travel 5 minutes before your scheduled pick-up and be prepared to wait up to 15 minutes after that time. The driver will go to the door for you and then must wait for you for 5 minutes from the time of the scheduled pick-up. If you are not at the pick-up location, the driver will obtain clearance from the dispatcher to leave after waiting 5 minutes. Please do not leave your pick-up location to call before the end of the 15 minute waiting period. All vehicles have a color-coded stripe to assist in locating a particular contractor; blue stripe-GLSS, green stripe-NE and red stripe-VTS.
- If THE RIDE does not arrive by the end of the 15-minute period, please call TRAC(GLSS/NEXT) or VTS to assist you in locating the vehicle or estimate its time of arrival (ETA). Your RIDE is not considered late until 31 minutes past your scheduled pick-up time.
- To cancel or to change a trip location or time, call TRAC(GLSS/NEXT) or VTS. Changes, other than trip time negotiation, will trigger the premium non-ADA fare.
- If you are delayed, due to unforeseen circumstances, at an appointment, call TRAC(GLSS/NEXT) or VTS and ask to be put on "will-call" status. When you are ready, call to request your new pick-up time. This will trigger the premium non-ADA fare. RIDE contractors will do their best to incorporate your modified trip request into the days schedule but may not be guaranteed. Always book your return trips with sufficient time should unforeseen circumstances arise.
There are many changes to schedules due to traffic problems, customer delays, and weather. Dispatchers monitor and adjust vehicles to try to keep schedules running on time. Dispatchers interact with customers, drivers, and MBTA RIDE staff to troubleshoot problems. If you require assistance, please call your contractor as soon as possible. You will not be left stranded.
Subscription service
Subscription service is for RIDE customers who make a reservation to and from the same locations for two or more days per week. Call your contractor to request that these trips be automatically scheduled, which eliminates the need to call individually for each trip. Subscription service is subject to availability. This service is not provided on holidays; therefore you are responsible for reserving your trips on those days. If you currently have subscription service, your automatic trip scheduling may be interrupted with any change in eligibility conditions ( i.e. from Unconditional to Conditional and vice versa) or reinstated after a negative fare balance suspension. If this happens, contact TRAC or VTS immediately to confirm your trips if you currently use subscription service.

More travel options for RIDE customers
Registered RIDE users are eligible to use paratransit services in other areas in and out of Massachusetts. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) federal regulations allow for travel as a visitor in other areas for 21 days in a 12-month period. The Office for Transportation Access, OTA can provide proof of your MBTA ADA Paratransit Eligibility upon request. Provide this to the visiting agency in order to use their program. If travel will exceed 21 days to a particular area, you may need to apply for certification through that agency.
For services in other Regional Transit Authorities within Massachusetts please call 857-368-4636 (voice), 857-388-0655 (TTY) or visit MassDOT Regional Transit. Availability, hours of service, fares and policies vary within each Regional Transit Authority (RTA). For information on possible MBTA/RTA transfers, contact OTA.
In response to former Governor Patrick's Executive Order 530, Regional Coordinating Councils (RCC) are forming in Massachusetts. The Councils provide a forum for open discussion, unmet needs assessment, decision making about regional transportation priorities and new services designed to provide more transportation options for people with disabilities, the elderly, and low income individuals. If you would like more information about an RCC in your region and to join the stakeholder discussion, please visit MassDOT Mobility Management Center.

- Battery is 3000 mAh
- OS is still being advertised to be MIUI V5
- WiFi is dual band (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), and has GLONASS/A-GPS
Initial release will only include TDD-LTE with FDD-LTE version released around the end of the year. Reply

ecuador - Tuesday, July 22, 2014 - linkSo, how about actually reviewing the Mi 4 when it comes out? I mean you review all the phones that everybody else reviews, but anything that is not mainstream is absent. E.g. the Nokia N9 back when it was released looked like it came from the future compared to my iphone (according to my wife, when I first showed it to her - after using it myself I thought it was a fitting description), but was there a review? No. The Xiaomi Mi 3 was hailed as the best phone you could get by far at its price range. Was there a review? No. Reply
wffurr - Wednesday, July 23, 2014 - link5" devices are easier to use "in the hand" now? Ergh. I am not sure I like the 4.7" screen on my Moto X more than the 4.3" I had on my RAZR i. Reply
Fergy - Friday, July 25, 2014 - linkAgreed. Reply
semo - Monday, July 28, 2014 - linkYes, anything above 4.5" is in the grey area called phablet and anything 5.5" or above is full blown tablet. I don't think I've ever used phones of any kind that I couldn't operate entirely one handed.
Fingers crossed the next Moto G does not grow any bigger and gets a removable battery (not holding my breath) Reply
flyingpants1 - Sunday, August 17, 2014 - linkThen you have small hands. I'm 6'2", I have fairly large hands. For me, 4.5" is absolutely tiny, but I can't use a 5.5" LG G3 with one hand. My ideal size is probably an LG G2 at 5.2".
I wish you could custom-order your flagship and specify the screen size in increments of 0.1". Of course it's unrealistic, but it's nice to dream.
And while I'm dreaming, just give me a waterproof LG G2 with front speaker.. Reply

Mitochondrial Sequencing
Mutations in mitochondrial DNA have been linked to diabetes and aging, as well as the development of certain cancers. Mitochondrial DNA resequencing is therefore a useful tool for researchers looking to better understand these diseases.
Step-by-Step Guide to Mitochondrial Sequencing Products
DNA extraction is a critical first step in the experimental workflow of DNA Sequencing and Fragment analysis. The overall quality, accuracy and length of the DNA sequence read can be significantly affected by characteristics of the sample itself, and the method chosen for nucleic acid extraction. Ideal methods will vary depending on the source or tissue type, how it was obtained from its source, and how the sample was handled or stored prior to extraction.

HOUSTON - A jury finished their first day of deliberations Wednesday in the trial of a Houston police officer accused of raping a woman.
Abraham Joseph, 29, has been charged with two counts of aggravated sexual assault.
There was a delay in court Wednesday because the defense asked for a mistrial. There was a juror in the back of an elevator when an attorney asked the prosecutor who Joseph's attorney was. The prosecutor responded that it was a private attorney. Someone said that the union would have not represented Joseph if they knew he was guilty.
The juror told the attorneys that he did not know what was said, but asked them to stop talking about the case. The juror told the judge that he did not hear the conversation, so the motion for mistrial was denied. Closing arguments were then held and the jury began deliberating. They will resume deliberations on Thursday morning.
Police said Joseph kidnapped a waitress outside of El Diamante Nite Club, 3416 W. Fuqua, on Jan. 2, 2011, while he was on duty. Prosecutors said Joseph handcuffed her, drove her to a secluded section of Townwood Park, 3600 Simsbrook, and raped her.
She claimed Joseph was dressed in his uniform and armed when she was kidnapped.
Prosecutors said Joseph originally arrested the woman and a man in in the parking lot of the night club. The woman claims that Joseph dropped the man off on the side of the road, took her to the park and then raped her while she was still handcuffed.
Joseph's attorney claimed the sex was consensual.
Both sides made their final pushes to get the jury to see the case their way.
"Don't let this defendant step out of this courthouse with his freedom," prosecutor Eric Bily said. "To him, (his accuser) is just trash. She's disposable."
The defense said there are too many inconsistencies in the accuser's story. The defense attorney said the only thing Joseph is guilty of is cheating on his pregnant wife while working.
Prosecutors said that Joseph has been investigated as a potential suspect in five separate rape cases.
If convicted, Joseph could be sentenced to up to life in prison.

Get all the details on BB, CC, and DD creams — and the best ones to buy of each!
Fall 2013 Runway Report: Hair, Makeup & Nails
Get all the details on BB, CC, and DD creams — and the best ones to buy of each!More
Feel like you've been hearing a series of letters rather than actual descriptors attached to the newest skincare products? You're not crazy: You've just been caught up in the swarm of "alphabet creams." BB, CC, and now DD creams first gained popularity in Korea, and have made similar waves stateside. But what do all those letters stand for, and what do these creams actually do? Marie Claire breaks it down.
What is it? Short for beauty balm or blemish balm, BB creams are the love child of makeup and skincare. While its benefits seem to be endless, at its bare bones BB cream is the world's best tinted moisturizer, packed with tons of benefits as well as SPF.
What it does: BB creams can smooth the skin, contain anti-aging elements, even out your skin tone, moisturize, protect against sun damage, and have a light-reflecting component that give your skin a dewy, luminous look!
How to use it: Although it may have SPF, don't douse your face with it the way you do sunscreen—a light layer is all you need. BB creams can also be used as a primer, moisturizer, and foundation!
How it differs: BB cream provides the least amount of coverage of all the alphabet creams, so it's perfect for a younger woman whose skin needs a little pick-me-up!

Safe Sex: Coming To A Cell Phone Near You!
As sexting gets more popular, safe sexting gets a grant! A series of modern sex ed soap operas have been filmed and distributed via cell phones thanks to an endowment and the commitment of a New Jersey nurse and professor. Rachel Jones, the RN behind the video productions, has spent her career committed to preventing the spread of HIV and AIDS in young women. Sadly, her home state of New Jersey has the highest number of women living with AIDS in the entire U.S. Shockingly, 82% of infections in the 18-to-29-year-old group nationwide are heterosexual African-American ladies and Latinas. Nurse Jones is perplexed by the figures, saying, "It is astounding, it is a completely preventable infection." So, she has labored for grants to normalize condom use by sending girls text messages. More, after the jump…Using a smattering of 250 women, some members of the control group will merely be sent a friendly "use a condom" reminder, while others will receive 20-minute-episodes about love and its glove. With a lot of experience caring for patients, Nurse Jones was able to base the dramatized situations on real stories she's heard over the years. The dozen videos feature scenes that would truly resonate with any woman navigating the dating scene — like the girl who has just taken back her cheating BF, but in this scenario the heroine explains that they have to now use condoms until they both get tested for STDs. It's a relatable story we've all lived or heard before, with a safety-first slant!
Ideally, Nurse Jones hopes cell phone communication will really reach out and touch someone before they touch someone else and will convince young women to always use a condom. Best of all, after the test period is over, the videos will also be available on line. In the meantime, we can all do our part by making a New Year's resolution to protect ourselves and the ones we love, by only practicing safe sex! [MSNBC]

When the Author server restarts, it can look, to the users, like it is hanging because as soon as they click on a node in the left hand nav tree they see "Loading" in the central pane. It just sits there saying "Loading" for a long, long, long time.
This can be caused by having lots of old Workflow instances hanging around (check /etc/workflow/instances). In which case, you should ensure that you install the Workflow purge tool from Adobe.
The purge tool by default will clear out any Workflow instances which are less than 14 days old (well the version I have says > 1 day but the code was actually > 14 days). It can be configured to only purge COMPELTED workflow, or ALL of them. However, beware that the default configuration (in my version 1.6.1 anyway) will only purge the following workflow models :-
- "/etc/workflow/models/dam/dam_asset_syncer_and"
- "/etc/workflow/models/dam/update_asset"
- "/etc/workflow/models/dam/delete_asset"
- "/etc/workflow/models/dam/delete_dam_asset"

Most children experience fluid in their middle ear space during their toddler or preschool years. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) offers guidelines for how pediatricians can detect and treat these infections. Usually the infection does not hurt and clears up on its own, however some times it can lead to problems with hearing and language delays.

MP Claire Perry appealed for volunteers and donations to help the Youth Adventure Trust at its official relaunch at Brokerswood Country Park, Westbury, on Saturday.
The charity helps vulnerable young people across Wiltshire to improve their aspirations, self-esteem, confidence and resilience through challenging outdoor activities.
Those chosen follow a three-year programme costing £3,000 a person which includes 22 activity days throughout the year.
It is paid for by the charity through the donations received from individuals and local businesses.
Since 1992 it has helped over 3,600 young people across Wiltshire.
It also relies on a team of 180 unpaid volunteers to take them through the programme and act as positive role models.
Demonstrating her tree-climbing ability on the day was Bryony Hoolison,14, from King-down School, Warminster, who is in her third and final year.
She said: "It has taught me not to be scared, to give things a go and make the most of the opportunities that you have got."
Callum Grant, 14, from Melksham Oak Community School, also in the final year, said: "I have learned that if you support others, they will support you.
"When I first came I did not know anyone, but made friends quickly.
"I found mountain climbing the biggest challenge because I did not like heights, but I love it now."
Chairman of the trust, Jon Scourse, said: "Young people come to us from a variety of backgrounds. Many are young carers or children from single-parent families with often chaotic and unstable home lives.
"Growing up in such environments puts children at severe disadvantage over their peers, so the trust sets out to provide an opportunity for them to learn new skills and gain confidence."
Mrs Perry, the MP for Devizes, said: "I want to help the charity support more vulnerable young people in our region.
"We can see from the young people here what a difference the organisation is making."

Hampton & Richmond Borough striker Charlie Moone has reclaimed his goal scoring identity after a heart-to-heart with boss Mark Harper.
The 23-year-old, the club's second highest scorer last season, smashed a hat-trick in Tuesday's 4-0 FA Trophy win at Hythe Town – after Saturday's 1-1 stalemate – to reach the set up a second qualifying round.
Moone played second fiddle to departed doppelganger Dave Tarpey for large parts of last season as the Beavers were relegated from the Blue Square South.
But the former Woking youngster has stepped out of the shadows to establish himself as Harper's blue-eyed boy, with his goals having fired his side to second in the Ryman Premier League.
And Reading-based Moone is only too pleased to have taken his chance, although he admitted the fast start to the campaign for a side that has only conceded two goals thus far, has not been all about him.
"My form this year has been down to getting a regular run of games and being given the responsibility to score," he said.
"I was in and out of the team last year and it was also my job to create chances, rather than take them myself.
"It is the other way around this year with the likes of Joey Benjamin and JJ Bates creating things.
"Mark said in the summer that he was depending on me to score the goals this season and I've taken that on board.
"There are great expectations on us having dropped down a league, so it was important for us to get a good start and show we are hungry for this league.
"It is nice to get a few goals, but I've said it before, you don't need to score many goals when you are as solid as we are at the back.
"We've got some experienced players in our team now like Gary Holloway, Darren Powell, Alan Bray and Max Hustwick. Local lads who are keen to do their bit."
Hampton go to high-flying Ryman Premier League rivals Bury Town in the FA Cup tomorrow in search of a fourth qualifying round spot and a £7,500 cash prize.
But Moone admitted taking part in the world's most famous cup competition was not all about the money.
"The players know how important the cups are to a club like Hampton. We haven't got the biggest budget, so every bit of money helps," he added.
"The FA Cup is great, because when you speak to your friends and tell them you've actually played in it they are always impressed."
Lewes visit the Beveree in the league on Tuesday.

Andover Rugby Club Youth Academy's 2013/14 season ended in style with their annual presentation day entitled 'Celebrating Success'. Newly installed academy chairman Hendry Taylor welcomed around 350 young players, parents and relations to the event which was held in a large marquee on the clubs first team pitch.
Local MP Sir George Young, and Hampshire RFU's Kieron Spencer were among the guests and numerous sponsors who saw a number of young boys and girls ranging in age from five to 18 years old receive awards to recognise their personal achievements during the past year.
The main awards were presented by player/coach Marc Wilding and London Irish's community coach Ollie Braley.
Each team had a 'Coach's Player' and 'Most Improved Player' as selected by their coaching team and the players in each of the 12 age groups previously voting for their own 'Player's Player' nominee with the winner being the player with the highest number of votes. Among the highlights of the morning was the presentation of silver salvers to four Andover players – Josh Ingram, Callum Farr, Jacob Williams, and Stanley North – who had been selected for their respective Hampshire teams – a real achievement in a very competitive county. During Hendry Taylor's initial welcoming introduction, he thanked both sponsors Simplyhealth and all the other local sponsors and sporting partners involved with the club, whose financial help is crucial in maintaining the current excellent standards being achieved at the Goodship Ground.
The Academy Junior Clubman Award was presented to U15 Toby Warren, who in the opinion of his coaches displayed real dedication to his team during the past season in spite of a serious knee injury. The Academy Senior Clubman's Award was presented this year to Dave Kane, who has worked tirelessly behind the scenes with local schools, both primary and secondary in raising the awareness of rugby within the local community.
Ollie Braley commented: "We are delighted to be involved in supporting Andover RFC's youth academy, as they are one of our most proactive 'tier one' Community Club partners, and have been so for a number of years. It is wonderful to see that the whole club is focused in providing a high standard of coaching and support to the town's young people, and I am amazed at the level of commitment that the players of all ages have shown. It must be extremely gratifying for all coaches and support staff to see the progress the boys and girls have made, and having attended a number of rugby club presentations, I must say today's event here at Andover is one of the best' Kieron Spencer – rugby development officer for Hampshire RFU, said, 'it's obviously been another fantastic season for Andover RFC's Youth Academy. All the squads have worked very hard to further develop and progress, and this can clearly be seen by the achievements of both the youngsters and well as the senior teams. It is good to hear continued numbers of players coming into the lower age groups, which will stand the club in excellent stead for the future. With the news that 77 per cent of the current first XV are former graduates from the club's academy, this equates to a whole bright new future for Andover RFC, and one that I believe many other clubs are quite envious of."
The club also made the coveted presentation of an Honorary Life Membership to colts sponsor Stuart Graham, whose company Graham and Co have been involved with the club for the past ten years The final presentation was made to former youth academy chairman Dickie Staff and his wife Hilary. Dickie is stepping down from his official duties with the club as he is due to become chairman of the Auto Cycle Union (ACU) Track Racing Commission in January.
Dickie commented:"Having been involved with the club for the past 15 or so years – since my two sons Jack and Callum first started playing youth rugby – I have made many friends here at the club. Together with the support of a number of dedicated and focused parents, we have worked hard over a number of years to ensure that the academy has become a key asset for the future of this magnificent club. Andover RFC now has a good reputation within the local community, as well as within the South of England, and Hampshire RFU have often referred to us as 'best practice' for other rugby clubs to copy. I feel that what we have now is a great legacy, and one that everyone involved should be extremely proud of. I wish Hendry and his team the very best of luck for the future, and I know that he will take the Academy to a new level."

A PROJECT which helps thousands of householders get advice and help to improve their property is to be extended by another year.
Festival Housing is on the verge of striking a fresh deal with the likes of Worcester City Council to help thousands more residents.
Care & Repair Worcestershire, which launched to much fanfare in 2010, offers support to vulnerable people, those on low incomes, pensioners and the disabled to help them get help with their homes.
The project helped 2,367 people last year, 474 of whom were in Worcester.
It is aimed at both privatesector tenants and those in social housing.
Services available include advice on improving security, reducing energy bills and how to apply for welfare.
The body can also get quotes for any home improvements, offer support on requesting grants, and arrange to pay third parties for work carried out.
Last year the most common request for help was how to get a better shower by people in social housing.
The contract was due to run out this spring but a new deal is being arranged so it can extend to March 2015.
The city council's Labourled cabinet has agreed to support the plan, paving the way for the deal to be signed.
It is joint-funded by all six district councils in Worcestershire and the county council, based on an assessment from the government on the likely number of people needing support.
Councillor Lynn Denham, Worcester's cabinet member for community engagement, said: "This has been running for a few years now and it's regarded as a good model that's worked well for both us and the rest of the county.
"There has to be a mechanism in place for ensuring we have a continuous service.
"The funding for the next financial year is in line for our assessed needs so there's no financial concerns about it."
Because of changes to government funding, from 2015 clinical commissioning groups will be expected to take over responsibility for the service instead of councils.
The body also specialises in helping to adapt homes so vulnerable people can live in them safely.

Bad management decisions have a nasty habit of trickling down the business chain to ill effect. For example, when a corporate office sets policies that make no sense for those doing the actual labor, it should be no surprise to see these same guidelines complicate the lives of us working stiffs. I learned this firsthand during my days at the computer repair desk of a now-defunct electronics store.
At this establishment, the managers were determined to make us the best in customer service and repair. However, the approach was poorly planned and horribly designed -- a disaster waiting to happen. One detail in particular was a sticking point: Instead of setting aside a separate part of the store for the repair area, the support zone was out in the aisle.
[ See why InfoWorld blogger Paul Venezia says that the IT profession has never been easier -- or harder. | Follow InfoWorld's Off the Record on Twitter for tech's war stories, career takes, and off-the-wall news. | Subscribe to the Off the Record newsletter for your weekly dose of workplace shenanigans. ]
I'm sure the young, idealistic, inexperienced MBA at corporate headquarters who came up with this asinine idea felt it would allow the PC repair staff to "interact with the customers and promote the store's great PC services." (Insert stock photo of smiling tech talking to happy customers.)
The reality was that it made it nearly impossible to complete PC repair work quickly, and it opened a security hole bigger than the Large Hadron Collider. There was only one locked-down hood for securing customer laptops. If you were working on more than one laptop at a time, you had to keep a keen eye on the others so that no one would steal them.
Officially, store policy stated that while a repair associate was working on a customer's computer, they were not to leave it alone. The company had only one PC repair associate working at one time. Say you were working on several different machines at once and needed to use the bathroom -- the preferred option was to find a member of the PC sales staff to watch the desk while you were gone.
But if the sales staff were all tied up with customers, your only option was to put everything away. A computer taken apart? Assemble the computer quickly or put the parts in a bin. In the middle of a two-hour malware scan? Stop the scan, shut down the computer, and lock it up. When you came back five minutes later, you have to pull everything back out of the cabinet and start again. Sure, this makes perfect sense (sarcasm dripping).
It got worse. The company ran into financial trouble, so it cut staff and slashed hours. On any given weeknight, it took at least three salespeople plus the PC repair tech to fully man the PC department. However, as the hours diminished, only one salesperson was assigned to the floor.
As the PC repair tech juggled jobs on several machines that needed to be completed that evening because this is what the salesperson promised, angry, impatient customers circled like sharks. "Yeah, we need some help over here. We want to buy a computer, but the other sales guy is busy." Then from the other side, "When you get a chance, I need help with the wireless routers." Then over the loudspeaker would come the announcement, "We need a PC repair tech at the customer service desk ..."

In the wake of Carl Froch's smashing knockout victory over former IBF super middleweight champion Lucian Bute, all indicators are pointing to Froch's next outing as a rematch with the Viking Warrior, Mikkel Kessler. Although Froch has signed a contract that guarantees Lucian Bute a return engagement, it remains doubtful and unclear if Bute will choose to exercise his rematch rights. Credit: Tom Casino/Showtime Furthermore, Froch has pointed out that IBF rules prohibit Bute from an immediate rematch for the IBF title after a knockout defeat. Ergo, Bute will need to fight an interim bout before he can challenge for the IBF's red belt, or Froch would need to vacate the belt, or the IBF would need to issue an exemption of some kind. The first option leaves Froch with an open dance schedule for the rest of the year, the second simply isn't going to happen, while the third is plausible, but unnecessary as of yet. For his part, Mikkel Kessler is not only saying he would be h...
