LED Strip Lights
Strip lights are multi-circuit stage lighting instruments. They consist of different ramps in a row. Strip lights are wired internally into three of four circuits. These lights make for great low budget sources of lights and are popular for such applications as schools and churches. These bulbs are popular because they mean reduced power consumption.
LED Strips (or LED Tapes, LED Ribbon) are currently the mostly widely used LED lights. They are classified into rigid LED strips and flexible LED strips. Traditional flexible LED strips are made of SMD 3528 or SMD 5050 light bulbs and they can be single-color, pure white, warm white, cold white, red, green, blue, or yellow, among others. They can also be multi-color. RGB LED strips are driven by DC12V or DC24V transformers.
At TECLED, we also have waterproof LED Strips for your outdoor use. The use of LED strips lighting is increasingly popular in baths, kitchens, and other domestic applications. More and more people are using these lights for emergency lighting purposes. The most popular of these lights are the flash LED lights.
You could use LED Strip Lights for interiors, including cabinets, cupboards, and different glass enclosures. These lights are popular because you can turn the color and its intensity on and off through its centralized operating system. The bulbs are also popular because of their low energy consumption and the fact that they have a long life.

New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange
New Mexico has a State Health Insurance Exchange but it has asked the federal government to provide computer support necessary for the mandatory online insurance exchange program. This hybrid approach is not like most other states.
"We opted for a hybrid model, where New Mexico will stand up for the SHOP Exchange for small employers and rely on the feds for the individual Exchange," said Mike Nunez, who is the CEO of the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange. "We will implement this hybrid model for 2014 and move toward a full state-based exchange in 2015."
The state launched a new web site for the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange. Sign up: Be Well New Mexico. Both individuals and small employers can use the web site to shop for insurance, Nunez says. "Behind the portal, New Mexico will administer the SHOP, and the feds will administer the individual Exchange."
Over 450,000 of New Mexico's 2.1 million residents currently have no health insurance, and about 83,000 New Mexico residents are expected to buy their health insurance through the Marketplace. Medicaid expansion is expected to extend coverage to 90,000 New Mexicans.
Important Facts:
Five insurance companies have applied to sell health insurance through the Exchange (all pending review):

Murray Goulburn, Australia's biggest dairy company, has argued that if it acquired WCB it would create a ''super co-operative'', giving Australia the scale necessary to compete globally.
But in a submission to the Australian Competition Tribunal, Warrnambool dismissed that claim.
''There is a risk that further consolidation of Australian dairy exporting companies could have a negative effect on Australian dairy exports,'' WCB said.
''Some customers wish to balance their purchases among a range of suppliers and already believe they have adequate exposure from Murray Goulburn, which would increase if they absorbed the volume they currently purchased from WCB.''
Murray Goulburn is battling with Canadian dairy giant Saputo to takeover WCB, Australia's oldest listed milk processor.
Warrnambool's board has backed Saputo's unconditional bid of $9 cash per share, compared with Murray Goulburn's $9.50 offer, which is conditional on gaining approval from the competition tribunal and acquiring at least 50 per cent of WCB.
Murray Goulburn has cited the world's biggest dairy company, Fonterra, which was created in 2001 after the merger of New Zealand's two biggest farmer co-operatives, as a successful model.
But when the tribunal asked WCB if it believed New Zealand's global strength was attributable to the formation of Fonterra, Warrnambool doubted that was the case, saying it was ''highly speculative''.
WCB said Fonterra had nothing to do with the strength of the Australian and New Zealand currencies against the US currency, New Zealand's ability to sign a free trade agreement with China ahead of Australia, and lower production costs across the Tasman. But in a separate submission, farmer group Australian Dairy Farmers said fragmentation of Australia's milk processing assets had hindered growth in the industry.
''Externally, this competition may appear positive,'' the group said.
''But it has led to under-investment in new and improved procession technologies as processors have competed primarily on the price paid to farmers to secure milk to improve throughput to underutilised processing capacity.''
''At the same time, Fonterra in New Zealand has continued to invest in new and improved processing plant and technology which now leaves Australian companies with comparatively uncompetitive processing costs on large scale commodity products.''
The tribunal has also asked for more information from a range of government departments and milk processors to test Murray Goulburn's argument that its proposed merger with WCB would be in the public interest.
Tasmanian Economic Development Minister
''In this respect, it is not likely to have a negative impact of any significance.''
The tribunal is expected to make a decision by February 28.

Aranmula (Kerala), June 7: Kerala chief minister Oommen Chandy had laughed it off when senior Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh pracharak Kummanam Rajasekharan joined the anti-airport struggle in this village on the foothills of the Western Ghats in July 2012.
Less than two years down the line, it was Rajasekharan's turn to chuckle as the Chennai bench of the National Green Tribunal revoked the environmental clearance for the project last week.
The tribunal found the environment impact assessment report for the project lacking on several key aspects, such as the ecological impact of levelling hundreds of acres of paddy fields and wetlands.
It concluded that the private agency that prepared it was not qualified to do so, pulled up the environment and forests ministry for acting in haste, and scrapped the green clearance it had granted.
Celebrations erupted across Aranmula. The joy of humbling the state apart, the victory was a morale booster for the Sangh parivar.
This was the Sangh's first big victory on the environment front, something that used to be the preserve of the Left through the 1970s and 1980s. The message was clear: saffron was the new green in Kerala.
Chronologically, the anti-airport struggle was the third among the most significant and successful campaigns in the state's environment history, the first two being the 1973 movement against a hydro-electric power project in the Silent Valley rain forest and the early-2000s anti-Coca Cola plant agitation, both in Palakkad district.
No wonder then that the leaders of the first two struggles — environmental scientist V.S. Vijayan, poet Sugathakumari and activist Vilayodi Venugopal — allied behind the Aranmula struggle too.
But there was one notable difference, which perhaps mirrors the waning Left influence on the state's green movement.
The pro-CPM Kerala Sasthra Sahithya Parishad (Kerala Forum for Science Literature) — movement for popularising science — was one of the key voices in the Silent Valley and the anti-Coca Cola fight. But by the time Aranmula happened, the outfit seemed to be losing its sway.
The CPM had been a direct beneficiary of the growth of the Parishad's influence, but those were the days before the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The Parishad had been opposed to the Aranmula project right from its inception in 2004, when it was conceived as an airstrip for an engineering college by the then owner of the land, local businessman Abraham Kalamannil, says the Parishad's state president, N.K. Sasidharan Pillai.
Faced with cases under the Land Ceiling Act, Kalamannil sold off the roughly 250 acres to a Chennai-based group that was into real estate development. Subsequently, the KGS Aranmula International Airport Ltd came into being with the object of developing what would have been India's "first private international greenfield airport at a cost of Rs 2,000 crore on 700 acres of land".
Pillai agrees that the Parishad hadn't been able to achieve much on its own in Aranmula but claims it had lent full support to the struggle. He also denies that the fact of the Left government under V.S. Achuthanandan having made the first moves for the airport in 2010 had blunted the Parishad's initiative.
The Achuthanandan government had notified 2,000 acres in Aranmula as industrial land to make way for the airport, but regretted having done it after losing power in 2011. The Left sought to blame it on some bureaucrats, claiming the cabinet had not been kept fully aware of the move.
Former CPM member and political commentator Appukkuttan Vallikkunnu has a different perspective.
"It is not enough to brand a party as Leftist. To be one, it has to believe and follow some fundamental aspects (of the ideology), like the importance of environmentalism to socialist thought," he said.
"Karl Marx had written that 'to solve the global ecological crisis and begin a genuine social and ecological reform, there must be a world proletarian revolution and establishment of socialism'. But for this, the party has to have close links with class and mass organisations. (It does) not (have such links) any more. Even the so-called Left parties now swear by globalisation and don't have leaders who have risen from the ground.''
Parishad chief Pillai argues that the Sangh's triumph in Aranmula had to do with its success in linking environment to heritage.
"Rajasekharan (the Sangh pracharak who led the fight) was the patron of the Aranmula Heritage Village Protection Council. The slogan was that nature was inextricably linked to the area's heritage,'' he said.
Indeed, Rajasekharan and his team had succeeded in drawing people's attention to Aranmula's status as a Unesco-certified Global Heritage Village. Pledging support were the makers of the Aranmula kannadi, a rare handmade metal-alloy mirror.
The select families here that know the craft feared that the wetlands, from where the clay for the mirror comes, would be eaten up by the project.
The protesters also cited a possible threat to another heritage: the annual boat race on the neighbouring holy river Pampa. They argued that the river's natural flow would be affected by the levelling of the paddy fields for the airport project.
That the boat race is linked to festivities at the nearby Parthasarathy temple strengthened the emotional quotient. The proposed runway was expected to affect the shrine too requiring it to reduce the height of its ritualistic flag mast.
The promoters denied all these but their arguments failed to cut ice even with the tribunal.
"When we started off in 2012, the odds were against us. The local MP and MLA, the state government — they all supported the project. The promoters got some judicial orders too to back their case,'' recalled Rajasekharan, 61.
But it was for a good reason that the Sangh had drafted one of its best hands into the Aranmula agitation. Rajasekharan, a journalism graduate, had earned the parivar its first major win in 1983 as convener of the Nilakkal movement that thwarted plans to erect a Church at Nilakkal on the way to the Sabarimala temple.
Four years later, Rajasekharan quit his job with the Food Corporation of India to become a full-time Sangh volunteer.
In Aranmula, he succeeded in bringing under one umbrella not just the local people and the environmentalists but even the CPM, the CPI, sections of the Church and the Congress, minority groups and Left hardliners.
Its success in Aranmula has emboldened the parivar to press ahead with its next agenda — implementation of the Madhav Gadgil Committee report for the protection of the Western Ghats.
The Catholic Church's firm opposition to the report has spawned a dilemma for both the CPM and the Congress, which do not want to risk losing Christian votes. The Church fears that tighter environmental controls in the hilly forest areas would hurt the livelihood of farmers living on the forests' borders — who are mostly its flock — and force them to relocate.
Opposition to the Gadgil report had prompted the Centre to appoint the Kasturirangan panel, which in many ways watered down Gadgil's recommendations. Kerala's Congress government even got the Centre to start acting on the Kasturirangan report in the run-up to the general election.
The Left began consorting with a miffed Church and floated an action forum that put up an "Independent'' candidate against the Congress nominee from the Idukki seat where the Ghats see the maximum settlements and encroachments. The Independent won, proving the Church's grip over the region's voters.
But the parivar seems undeterred. The Sangh national executive, which met in Kochi in October last year, had criticised the dumping of the Gadgil report without a debate. "Several recommendations of the panel are in the larger national interest," it had said.
Last December, the Sangh lost a man to the cause when activists of its affiliate Hindu Aikya Vedi came under attack from alleged CPM workers during a dharna demanding implementation of the Gadgil report in Kozhikode district.
Notification of the Gadgil report was one of the promises made by the state BJP during this general election campaign. With nothing to lose, the party believes that disenchantment with the Left and the Congress will in the long run draw Hindu votes into its kitty.
In Aranmula, for instance, the BJP improved its vote share from 7.06 per cent in 2009 to 15.98 per cent this time. Gadgil, it hopes, will provide the additional boost it needs.

Menu Math
Got a stack of take-out menus sitting in a drawer in your kitchen? Pull them out for this game of "restaurant." While talking about sweet and savory foods, you and your second grader can reinforce real-world applications of counting and using money. You'll also be building success in school: in second grade and beyond, money is a very common math topic.
What You Need:
- Old, extra take-out menus
- Bills and coins
- Silverware tray (to be used as a cash register tray to keep money sorted)
- White out
- Paper
- Pencils
What You Do:
- Take out some old take-out menus for food choices your child enjoys. Prices are listed, of course, in decimal form, which kids won't study in detail until third, fourth, and fifth grades. Use your white-out to cover the decimals and just show the dollar amounts on each item.
- Now tell your child that you will take turns "playing restaurant", switching off roles of being the customer and the server. You and your child may wish to decide upon different names for yourselves during the role play.
- You should start out in the role of server, so you can model the procedure first for your child.
- Make sure your child has ample money to pay for items on the menu. Maybe she should even make a trip to the "bank" before going out on the town. When the "customer" arrives, she should be seated at the table and you should take down her order on a notepad.
- Total the items on the notepad for your child to see, state the price, and give your child the check. Make change if necessary (no tip required!).
- You can repeat this game as many times as you want, switching roles each time. Use a different menu to keep things fresh, or have your child create her own menu.
- When you've played a few rounds, your child is ready to graduate to another important, family-centered activity. Tell him that you'd like to arrange takeout for your family, but you need his help. Have him make an "order list" by copying down dish names and dollar amounts, and then calculating dollars for you. This is a real-life, Big Kid skill, and you can expect a very proud second grader when you're done. Bon appétit!
While this activity provides great math practice, it's also a good hands-on social studies lesson. When they play this game with you, kids are learning how shops work, and they are preparing to do the same steps they've watched you master any time they go to a store. Not bad learning for an hour-long game!

Braham girls basketball began the season with strong defensive pressure while swarming host Mora 70-25 in the Dec. 5 opener. Kayla Nickles led the way with 28 points, and Jaclyn Hollenkamp hustled for 12 steals while adding 22 points in the non-conference win over the Mustangs.
Lizzie Altendorf finished with 4 steals to go with 5 assists for the Bombers. Angie Bendickson worked for 7 points and 4 rebounds, and Natalie Bacon added 4 points and 5 rebounds.
Braham improved to 2-0 after getting past visiting Zimmerman 60-52 on Saturday. Nickles scored 23 points while passing for 4 assists. Hollenkamp added 13 points and 7 rebounds, and Jenna Winter balanced the offense with 11 points to go with 6 rebounds and 4 steals. Altendorf led with 6 assists while scoring 8 and snaring 4 steals.
"Maybe the key to the game was free throw shooting where we made 19-of-25 and the Thunder made 14-of-23," commented Bomber Coach Tim Malone. "Young Stephanie Braund was a very pleasant surprise off the bench with many great plays while the starters were in foul trouble."
• On Dec. 10, the Bombers began the Great River season with an 85-25 win over Hinckley-Finlayson.
SC Tech runs past C-I Girls
Host St. Cloud Tech ran out to a 23-8 lead and kept the heat on to defeat Cambridge-Isanti girls basketball 64-33. The loss evened the Bluejackets' early record at 1-1.
"Tech came out with a very aggressive half-court defense that put us on our heels, and we never really adjusted or responded," described C-I Coach Jody Ledahl. "We struggled all game executing our offense, and when you're not scoring, that puts a lot of pressure on your defense because you never get an opportunity to start a possession with a set defense."
The Bluejacket offense was led by points from Brooke Olson (7), Lily Porta (6), and Abby Glotzbach (6). Justine Larson had 7 of the team's 18 rebounds in the loss.
• On Dec. 10, Forest Lake defeated the C-I girls 53-42. Leading scorers for the Bluejackets were Justine Larson (15 points, 7 rebounds), Lily Porta (15 points) and Maria Vavra (4 points).

FC Dallas is enjoying the best start in team history, and a visit to Toronto could allow the Western Conference leader to keep rolling.
Dallas will try to push its point streak against Toronto FC to 11 on Saturday in the teams' lone meeting of 2013.
With Blas Perez netting his first goal of the season, FC Dallas (4-1-0) won its third in a row last Saturday, 1-0 at New England. The club's best start prior to this season came in 2006 when it was 3-0-2.
"Obviously it is a good start," midfielder Andrew Jacobson told the club's official website after Dallas ended an 0-3-2 road stretch. "You want to collect as many points as possible."
FC Dallas, tied with Montreal with an MLS-high 12 points, is looking to win four in a row for the first time since 2009. The club has gone 6-0-4 versus Toronto since TFC won the first meeting 4-0 on June 17, 2007.
Toronto ended a three-game losing streak to Dallas with a 1-all draw July 4.
TFC (1-2-1) will try to earn at least a point for the third straight time at home after settling for a 2-all draw with Los Angeles last Saturday. Goalkeeper Joe Bendik was beaten by a Jose Villarreal bicycle kick in second-half stoppage time, 15 minutes after Toronto substitute Jonathan Osorio put the club up with his first MLS goal.
"Yes, we are all disappointed that we didn't walk away with three points," coach Ryan Nelsen told the club's official website. "But we take the point and we move on."
Another positive - aside from TFC getting its first goal of the season by someone other than Ryan Earnshaw, who scored his fourth in the 29th minute - was the play of midfielder Luis Silva. Sidelined the first three games with a hamstring injury, Silva set up Osorio's goal.
"For the minutes I got, it was a positive and a step forward," the second-year midfielder told MLS' official website. "I'm hoping to get more minutes and to do better for the team."
Toronto needs more production on offense, as it has the second-fewest shots on goal in the league with 12. Dallas leads with 31.
Dallas also tops the West with three shutouts after posting back-to-back clean sheets over Real Salt Lake and New England.
Raul Fernandez could be in the Dallas net for a second straight game after Chris Seitz made three saves in the 2-0 win over RSL on March 23, when Fernandez was on national team duty.
"Not just the backline, but the whole team is playing collectively great team defense," defender George John said. "Obviously as defenders, we're primarily responsible for stopping their forwards and attacking players, but when we get guys swarming the ball in the midfield, it helps the team out tremendously. It's just a total team mentality of defensive play."
Dallas has gone 2-0-2 in its last four at Toronto.

How to avoid alarm management mistakes
This article examines common mistakes made implementing an effective alarm management project and recommends a methodology that will make your plant and personnel more productive.
Failing to establish and document best practices is a recipe for disaster. In order to get consistent results you have to create guidelines for performing alarm rationalization. For example, a project-specific alarm philosophy, including a methodology and rules for setting alarms, an alarm review to build commitment and consolidate training, as well as an audit process to ensure that the philosophy is consistently applied. These guidelines will clearly define the criteria for legitimate alarms and setting of their priorities. These are the backbone of an "Alarm Philosophy" document, which acts as a corporate standard to guide your entire organization's alarm management initiatives.
Blunder #5: Cutting Resource Corners
It is disturbingly common for companies to try and exclude the most important resource from rationalization meetings: the Panel Operator. Panel Operators are the end user and the primary stakeholder in alarm optimization. If you exclude the Panel Operator from the rationalization process, the project will fail.
The following reality is based on unpleasant site experience. Instrument Technicians, Automation Engineers, Process Engineers, and Field Operators are not Panel operators. Please pay attention; the only person who can be the "Panel Operator" is an experienced Panel Operator. This person fights alarms and unit problems day-in and day-out and his knowledge becomes very valuable during the rationalization process.
Alarm Rationalization is the process of applying operational experience to alarm system design. Although operators are the most important participants in this process, they cannot carry this burden alone. Without a facilitator who is familiar with Alarm Rationalization, your rationalization project will take longer than it should, yield poor results, and have to be repeated.
Finally, Alarm Rationalization requires an engineering review prior to implementation. This is required to ensure results are consistent with Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP) and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) studies. The "Process", "Unit", or "Contact" engineer plays this role.
Blunder #6: Establishing the Easieerst or Cheapest Connection
Collecting alarm data in an optimal fashion is system specific. The easiest way is often not the best way. Be sure to answer the following questions:
- Does the analysis package need to present information to the operator in real-time or are existing alarm visualization tools adequate to manage plant upsets?
- Is the plant hierarchy represented consistently and intuitively within the Control System and the Alarm Management System?
- Is redundant alarm data collection required to meet regulatory or corporate policy compliance?
- Are all required events such as "Return to Normal", "Operator Actions", and "System Messages" included in the chosen connection method?
- Are all required fields available in the data? Can priorities be distinguished? Can audible and suppressed alarms be distinguished? Can set point changes be discerned from output changes? Can absolute alarms be separated from deviation alarms? If gaps exist, what other sub-system(s) can be referenced to close them?
- Are basic alarm and event archiving and analysis adequate to meet my objectives, or do I need to establish a connection with the control system configuration database?
- How likely is the connection strategy to function with Control System upgrades?
- How much maintenance is required to keep the system running?
- Does one option provide advantages over another and vice-versa? Should more than one connection be used for each area?
- Do I only want to view this data at the plant level, or would corporate comparisons between sites benefit my operations?
Don't restrict connectivity to legacy strategies if they do not meet current needs. What worked in the past may no longer be the best solution. However, do not make things unnecessarily complex. Decide what you want to accomplish and then choose the simplest method that meets all of your needs. If the collection strategy becomes overly complex then it will be hard to maintain, and ultimately your entire alarm management strategy will suffer.
Blunder #7: Failing to Automate
Good technology makes life easier. Its purpose is to relieve people of dangerous, repetitive tasks, freeing them to intervene when the automated system requires guidance. When intervention is required, software should make problem assessment and diagnosis easy so as to free the user's time to fix the problem.
Although task accountability is necessary for successful Alarm Management, staff is more likely to use reliable technologies that are available on demand to make their jobs easier.
Blunder #8: Only Tracking Alarms
People often mistakenly fail to track all of the data required. Only tracking alarms is not enough! Alarm rationalization requires more than one type of data. For example, when an alarm occurs you need to know if an operator actually responded to it. Tracking operator actions is an effective way to identify control problems, automation opportunities, and audit the effectiveness of your alarm strategy. If the operator did not respond, there is a good chance that the alarm is a nuisance alarm. Examine the ratio of operator actions to audible process alarms in order to identify poor alarm strategies. The de-facto standard "every alarm requires operator intervention" demands this ratio exceed one.
Other data to track consists of operator actions, including controller setpoint, mode changes, and system errors. If a controller's mode or output is repeatedly changed it is a clear sign the loop needs fixing. If action data is coupled with controller performance data, an understanding of the loop's problems can be quickly diagnosed saving time. If a controller's setpoint is frequently changed and the controller has no supervisory control, then the Automation engineer must ask "why not?" Installing new automation strategies can free the operator to focus on pushing limits rather than maintaining process stability. In addition, process variable history is important for determining some deadband alarm settings, or for performing the engineering reviews prior to implementation.

By: Jason Woosey
Durban - Cars that stick around well beyond their conventional sell-by dates have become something of an institution in South Africa. Who could forget stalwarts like the Citi Golf, Nissan 1400, Toyota Tazz and the 1980s Mazda 323? Those relics eventually died, 'newer' ones came along and today we see the previous VW Polo living on as the Polo Vivo and the Ford Fiesta as the Figo.
While the latter pair fight it out in the 'sub-B' ring, Toyota is creating what it calls the 'sub-C' segment by bringing the previous-generation Corolla back to life as the Corolla Quest. Its new role is to offer a family-sized sedan package for the price of a compact hatch, with the 1.6-litre Quest starting at R174 900.
So how did they keep the costs down?
Firstly, the amortisation factor. You can say a big thank you to every person that bought the previous Corolla when it was still the latest model as they've already covered the vast investment Toyota made in tooling up for it. Toyota plans to build it in big volumes too, which improves economies of scale.
The bean counters also no doubt cheered at the various small changes that Toyota made to the car. On the outside, Toyota pinched some pennies by moving the side indicator lamps from the mirrors to the fenders and by switching to matt black trim for the grille and number plate garnish. The Quest can be further distinguished by new headlight and taillight clusters.
The 'features editing', as Toyota calls it, continues inside where the Corolla Quest now shares its carpeting and roof headlining with the Hilux and its seats with the latest Corolla. There have been some casualties though, like the deletion of the overhead console and sun visor vanity lamp, and you can forget about loading bulky items as the rear seat no longer folds.
On the upside, Toyota hasn't hacked away at the really important content and even the base Quest model comes with air conditioning, remote central locking, rake/reach adjustment for the steering wheel, dual front airbags and ABS brakes. It's pre-wired for an audio system too, although you'll get that as standard if you upgrade to the Quest Plus grade, which also adds alloy wheels and colour coded door handles for those wanting that extra dash of bling. Both versions offer peace of mind in the form of a three-year/45 000km service plan.
Another area where Toyota hasn't cut any corners is under the bonnet.
All Corolla Quests are powered by a 1.6-litre VVT-I petrol engine that delivers 90kW at 6000rpm and 154Nm at 5200rpm. Floor the right pedal and you should get to 100km/h in 10.4 seconds at the coast, according to Toyota. Both grades are offered with a six-speed manual gearbox but the base model can also be ordered with an autobox, albeit an old-fashioned four-speed unit.
I spent some time with the Corolla Quest manual model at its launch in Durban and what impressed me most was what an effortless driving experience it offers. The driving controls all operate with easy precision, the ride is smooth and the engine provides just enough oomph. It's the kind of car that won't really annoy you in any way, although it also lacks any ambition to entertain you.
But how does it stack up against the new Corolla and other more modern C-segment sedans?
This is where it gets tricky. The new Corolla costs around R50 000 more in 1.6-litre form, but it feels somewhat more desirable. There's just more style and class in its overall look and feel. The Corolla Quest, by comparison, comes across as rather bland.
It's an automotive appliance, pure and simple, but let's just consider that many motorists are not looking for anything more than that. In that context, the Corolla Quest comes across as a solid, competent and brilliantly priced sedan that undercuts its size rivals by a massive margin. You simply don't get more sensible than this.
1.6 Quest - R174 900
1.6 Quest auto - R198 900
1.6 Quest Plus - R197 900

The announced retirement on a pension of Ernest T. Richmond, director of the Department of Palestine Antiquities, led Palestine newspapers to recall his earlier pro-Arab and anti-Jewish activities. He will be succeeded by Professor M. Holley, director of Antiquities in Iraq.
During the administration of Sir Herbert Samuel, Richmond was political secretary to the High Commissioner. Together with the noted Arabian traveller and convert to Mohammedanism, H. St. John B. Philby, he attempted to proclaim the late King Hussein of Arabia, then living in Transjordania, Caliph of Islam. The affair caused great embarrassment both to the Palestine administration and the British government.
Richmond resigned his position, but despite the great outcry against him in Jewish circles in Palestine, was appointed to the post in the Department of Anti-quities. He is leaving now because he has reached the compulsory retirement age.

Does anyone here have any idea what would cause a Drupal 7 site to redirect to the user account page when certain admin functions are performed?
I previously thought the Tweetbutton module was causing this problem, but I disabled that.
Now when I try to save certain Ubercart store product edits and when I try to access store reports made through the Who Bought What module, the system redirects to the user account page instead of working as it should. I think there may be other scenarios where I'm getting thrown to the user account page as well, but these are the ones I'm currently noticing.
If anyone has encountered this behavior before, please pass along any insight you can. I think this is going to be a finding a needle in a haystack kind of endeavor to solve this though.
Try disabling your custom
Try disabling your custom modules and see if it works. If it works then something wrong written in you custom module which redirecting to user account page.
First I agree wit parmod
First I agree wit pramod_patil to keep an eye out for custom (rather than contrib) modules on the site. Are there any? This is because custom modules are sometimes very hacky, and misuse of drupal_goto redirects is not unusual in my experience.
Some sites will redirect a user to the account or login page if that user tries to do something which the system thinks (even if wrongly!) that user has no permission to do. This is not default Drupal 7 behaviour, but it can be added. If you built the site yourself you would know about this, if you had set it up. If you did not build the site, you could check whether this is the way the site behaves generally (for example by trying to visit an admin page while logged out).
Now, if the site turns out to redirect a user to the account or login page when that user tries to do something he has no permission to do, the explanation may be that the site (even if incorrectly) *thinks* that the currently logged-in user has no permission to do the edit you were trying to do. That does not solve the problem but gets closer.
If none of that helps I would
If none of that helps I would be asking questions about the hosting (e.g. is it standard hosting, or is it server where there may be some caching such as APC set up, which can give odd symptoms when it goes wrong), and maybe try a copy of the site elsewhere, before thinking about rebuilding.
No closer then. I seem to
No closer then. I seem to recall I have seen something like this, but cannot explain it. I assume you have disabled overlay module? If not, do so.
What hosting are you on?
So probably the hosting does
So probably the hosting does not have any complicated caching mechanisms. It might just be baling out (in which case a copy of the site on a better server or laptop would work), though the symptom is an odd one. Do the nodes get saved? If not, are the nodes where the save fails, particularly large ones?
There are a few reasons a
There are a few reasons a save can fail. One is that on shared hosting a neighbour is hammering the database with requests and the hosting company are not managing the issue, especially if the connection to the database is set to time out and the time is just to short. On large and complex pages you may also hit various php and database restrictions on the amount of data, which I do not think is likely relevant. On fairly basic shared hosting, it is more likely that the database server is simply not up to the job it is being asked to do.
For minimum hassle I would encourage clients for entry-level hosting to spend a bit more and host on a Drupal specialist such as oakhosting.net. drupion.com, civihosting.com - happily the number of options is increasing. For 90% of sites this will sort out a lot of problems, though for larger sites of course you need to beyond the basic offerings of such companies. You can run a VPS yourself, but doing it well can be a lot of work.
To be fair we do not know this is a hosting issue - just a suspicion!

Doepfer A-106-6 XPander Filter
Module A-106-6 is a 12dB multimode filter that is based on the filter circuit of the Oberheim SEM module.The filter is equipped with a band pass output and a combined low/notch/high pass output. For this output a control knob defines the relation between low and high pass signal. If both signals appear at the same level (i.e. middle position of the Mix knob) one obtains a notch filter. Otherwise the low or high pass signal predominates. The module does not feature self oscillation in contrast to most of the other filters of the A-100 system. The module generates a distorted audio signal if the level control is set to about 50% (i.e. center position) or more with A-100 standard signals like VCOs.
A-106-6 Features
- -12dB/Octave multimode filter
- Low Pass, High Pass, Band Pass, and Notch Filter Types
- Fade knob between Low Pass and High Pas styles
- Resonance does not self oscillate but provides a very clean and creamy accentuation
- Distortion occurs when the Level knob exceeds 50% for a dirtier and grittier tone.

Fast, even on aging Curves and Pearls. Comprehensive channel library. Can import feed lists from Google Reader. Plenty of customization options.
Coarse adjustments for time between updates. Full article displays could use improvement.
Bottom Line
If you like your news and blogs feed-style (as opposed to visiting individual WAP or Web sites), this is the BlackBerry RSS reader to download.
Viigo Complaints
The latest version has some minor flaws. For example, the full article display doesn't show a scroll bar on the right, so you can't tell how long the story is until you reach the bottom. It also doesn't strip out navigational text, so you must scroll past several screens' worth of nonsensical text to get to the main article body.
In addition, while the app lets you change how often it updates content, the adjustment is pretty coarse. The fastest three choices are 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 2 hoursalthough you can always force an update from the main pop-up menu if you want new content right away. There's a maximum storage limit of 1,000 articles. That seems like a high number, but it's one you can quickly bump up against if you subscribe to many feeds and then read articles from only a few of the sources. You can adjust the maximum number of stories saved at any given time for each feed, which helps mitigate this somewhat.
Finally, while I appreciated the new travel, weather, and stock updates, they were still rather basic. At the moment, dedicated third-party apps still win out for those tasks (such as WorldMate Live, WeatherEye, and Bloomberg, for those three tasks, respectively). One example: The local interest section contained traffic and emergency news updates, plus the ability to add craigslist ads, but little in the way of local events and other entertainment.
For pure news and blog posts reads via RSS, though, you simply can't beat Viigo for BlackBerry. Some usersmyself includedare partial to surfing individual Web sites, rather than drinking new content through a fire hose stripped of site context. But that's an issue with RSS readers in general and has nothing to do with Viigo. Besides, this app is good enough to make me a convert, especially on mobile devicesand that's saying something.

Repeat DWI suspect to be released in fatal crash
Updated 10:54 pm, Thursday, May 3, 2012
A five-time DWI suspect charged in a fatal motorcycle crash posted $100,000 bail and is awaiting release from jail, officials said Thursday.
William Joe Rhomer, 40, is charged with intoxication manslaughter in the crash that killed Gilbert Anthony Chavez, also 40, early Wednesday on the North Side.
Rhomer will be on house arrest and fitted with an ankle monitor, GPS device and an alcohol monitor, said Mike Lozito, director of the Bexar County Judicial Services Office.
If authorities don't suspend his driving privileges, an ignition interlock with GPS and a camera will keep him from starting his vehicle if alcohol is detected in a breath test.
Rhomer told police Wednesday that he'd been drinking at Coco Beach bar before the crash.
News Channel
Chavez was taken to University Hospital, where he was pronounced dead two hours later. Rhomer wasn't hurt.

3.2 miles, 29:30, 9:22/mi, AHR 124 (64% MHR)
Nothing like starting the week with a baby picture, huh?
Lou, (aka Mr. predawnrunner), MD, USA | Lou's Brews | email@example.com
Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don't so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head." - Joe Henderson
I had a blast camping... ran some, but no long runs. There just isn't enough real estate there unless you go off trail and I didn't want to do that by myself.
So, I will hopefully be getting in some decent miles this week.
Great job Erika! So glad to hear your race went well.
Glad you had a good time away, Paul.
There's some good running going on in here... tough to keep up with everyone. I enjoyed being totally unplugged this weekend, though. No cell signal- nothing.
And Bugs, I did see your post about the $5.00 a visit Boot Camp. We're supposed to start in 2 weeks so we need to get it planned. I like that idea. I'll see what my friend thinks.
Decided on two races coming up- there's a half marathon/full marathon on October 3rd in WV. I'll be running the half. And there's a 20 miler on October 10th, in Spotsylvania, Va. Don't know how far that is for you, Perry.
Hopefully, that won't be too close to Marine Corps, which is the 25th. I think it should be OK.
Happy to be able to get a run in and get caught up on housework.
Have a good one all!
On the road again...
That picture made me smile! Thanks, Lou.
I have a love/hate relationship with running. I do it, but sometimes I love to hate it.
Very cool Paul!
I had a nice 9 miler this morning. I really am loven this great weather. Must mean another 80+ degree race day at Steamtown again *sigh* though I really hope not.
Hey Kimmie! Nice to do those "unplugged" weekends every now and then. I think it would kill my kids though.
I did get my time fixed! Official time is now 5:09:36.1! I really like seeing that sub-5:10 there. Heh. I knew that other time didn't make sense, and the timing director agreed.
Not sure what I'll do today... would probably be smart to do another trip to the pool, but since I'm not known for being real smart about this stuff, I might try an easy recovery run today. Feel a little achy today, partly from the race and partly from the garden work yesterday afternoon. Makes me very glad I put it off till AFTER the race!
ETA: 1.4 mile recovery run on the TM at lunch. Wanted to do 2, barely got as far as I did. My right foot and AT (?) were very twingey and I decided not to push it. Finished with a .3 mile walk and 20 minutes of core/ab/stretch stuff.
Options,Account, Forums
Thanks Kimmie, but, Baltimore mara that day
PS: Awww, what a cutie...
It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.
7.1 miles, 57:06, 8:01/mi, AHR 156 (80% MHR)
including 8x20s striders
8 easy miles for me this morning put me over 1000 miles for the year and 1600 since I started running. Cool milestones.
Ran 4 easy this morning. I am thinking about doing a double tonight b/c I miss running with my group. My ankle/calf is bugging me though. I've been ignoring it, but I better see if I can get in to see the doc.
If I go tonight, I want to try to warmup and then run 6 miles tempo. I seem to only be able to do this with a group.... need that extra push.
Nice run Lou!!
Have fun and enjoy Kimmie!! I'd love to do some group runs *sigh*
Had hormone issue's last night which made me very grumpy. Went for a 5.5 mile walk before bed instead of eating dinner. Probably not that smart. Anyway woke up with not much energy however I still had a great run. Got 9 miles in. My weight is also back down to close to lowest it's been in the past 4 years and I'm in the middle of TOM . Not sure what to think cause I've been feeling too good for it to mean that I'm not eating enough. Anyway off to do some errands.
MTA: had a KICK ASS workout yesterday as well. Did legs as well since it looks like I won't get much hills in until AFTER my mary in October
Here's the link to my race report if you guys wanna mosey on over to the Master's forum for a read.
Well, thanks for the encouragement to pursue it w/ the shoe company--you'll never believe it but the woman who lives in that apt now actually tracked me down and I picked up my new shoes last night. Went out for 6 in them this am and am hoping new shoes will get me out of my funk!
Great to hear everyone else is running well--still can't believe your great time, Erika! Glad you got it established officially, correctly!
Cute, sleeping, baby--nuttin' better.
Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. (Heb. 12:1b) Mile by Mile
How awesome that you were able to run so strong on such a tough course. Being able to train on the course must have been such a huge help. I think I have to get me one of those trash cans to soak in.
Beautiful pic, Lou.
Congrats on your 1000 miles so far this year, Paul. That's a huge milestone.
3 treadmill miles for me after so many weeks without much running. I'm running a half in two weeks and have lost a lot of fitness.
Guess I get it back one step at a time.

The 19-year-old was watched on Saturday by former Burnley and Wales star Brian Flynn, who was running the eye over the Northern Ireland Under-21 international for Doncaster Rovers manager Dean Saunders.
Unfortunately, it was Robinson's slip that allowed Alan Davidson to cancel out Gary McCutcheon's opener against his old side, Ballymena United, who went on to win a game in which they were under the cosh for long periods, thanks to James Costello's first goal of an injury-ravaged season.
Hopefully that rare blip won't hamper Robinson's chances of a cross-channel move and Baxter would be delighted to see him go.
"They made an enquiry and they've been over to watch him a couple of times and they're going to have a little chat with him, but at this time that's all it is," he explained.
"Josh is a young player, he's come back over from Scotland and looks a good player. He's done very well in the last five or six games and I think he's cut out for full-time football.
"I think he'll make the transition. Whether it's with Doncaster or whoever we'll wait and see.
"I'll pack their bags, put them on the plane and take them over myself if necessary because these lads are young players looking for a career and if they have the potential talent to make it then that's what they should do and we shouldn't stand in their way.
"They've got to play at the top of their game and we'll see where Josh's talents take him.
"If they don't make it across the water then we'll welcome them back."
Opposite number Glenn Ferguson is just as happy to see his two goalscorers back as injuries and suspensions continue to ravage his threadbare squad.
What his squad lacks numerically is more than compensated for by a granite-like determination in his Sky Blue outfit and that was shown in spades as they could easily have capitulated again, having handed the visitors a first-half lead.
But Davidson's leveller, followed by Costello's first of the campaign, turned the game on its head although they were helped in no small part by a Crusaders side that should have made much more of their territorial dominance.
Costello finished last season like a house on fire but injury had largely made this season a damp squib. He exploded back into life on Saturday, however, with a classic poacher's goal to seal the victory.
"He finished last season very well and he's been out injured from the start of the season," Ferguson explained.
"He's an uncompromising centre forward who maybe isn't as capable as some others but what you will get is a good, honest shift from him.
"He's back, he's playing, working hard and you know he'll be frustrating at times, but he just wants to play football and he never misses training.
"There's no pressure on him to score goals. We want him to be a link-up player which we haven't had since the start of the season and I'm happy for him."
Belfast Telegraph

|Lampea pancerina (Chun, 1879)
Phylum Ctenophora / Order Cydippida / Family Lampeidae
Here's a comb jelly you won't encounter too often in California waters. Compared to its far more common cydippid relative, Pleurobrachia, this species has a more elongate body, with a tapered oral end. Perhaps the most distinctive feature is the huge pharynx, extending up to 5/6 the length of the body. The mouth is highly extensible. Circular in cross section, the body may reach lengths of 2 to 3 cm. The paired tentacles have relatively short side branches. The equal-length comb rows extend from the aboral end part way along the length of the body, to the openings of the sheaths where the tentacles exit. Lampea can have a milky white color, or a rosy tinge with pink pigmentation in the comb rows. It has a somewhat unusual feeding preference for a ctenophore, preying exclusively on salps. Small individuals glomb onto the bodies of salps and consume pieces, much like a parasite. At one time they were classified as an entirely different organism (Gastrodes parasiticum). Larger individuals can engulf entire salp chains. Sometimes seen in surface waters of Monterey Bay and deeper water off Santa Barbara, Lampea is a more common sight in the Mediterranean, Atlantic Ocean, and off the coast of Japan.

A survey of layout issues in flexible manufacturing systems
In this paper we survey layout issues in the flexible manufacturing system (FMS) environment. The FMS layout problem deals with the allocation of M stations to M (or more) candidate locations in order to satisfy the throughput requirements of the system. The relevance of quadratic assignment problem (QAP) formulations for the problem is examined. Results from the recent research literature are reported, and many different approaches to the problem are discussed. Emphasis is given on graph theoretic modelling techniques, heuristic approaches for special FMS layout types, and the queueing and dynamic aspects of the layout decisions. Operational and other design issues interacting with layout decisions are also surveyed, and relevant research literature is reported. Promising research directions and interesting open problems for FMS layout researchers are clearly described.

New York's Suffolk County Ups Tobacco-Buying Age to 19
NYACS opposes law as other counties consider raising the age limit.
Suffolk County, which was the first county in New York state to approve a smoking ban in restaurants two years ago, made history again yesterday when a new law took effect making it the first county in the state to raise the legal age for buying cigarettes and other tobacco products to 19 from 18, according to the New York Times.
The new law, which was passed in an 18-to-0 vote by county legislators last December and signed by Steve Levy, the county executive, on Jan. 31, took effect with little fanfare. The county's Department of Health Services had mistakenly notified about 2,200 storeowners that enforcement would begin on May 1, leading many stores to start limiting sales of the products two weeks before the actual start date. But officials nonetheless heralded yesterday as a milestone.
Brian X. Foley, a Democratic county legislator from Blue Point and the prime sponsor of the bill, talked of the "persuasive and powerful testimony" given at public hearings by high school students, explaining how their 18-year-old classmates would often buy cigarettes and bring them into schools for underclassmen.
"Nobody's under the illusion that this will eliminate the problem," Foley said. "But it should have some impact on the situation in the future."
Under the new law, any store caught selling tobacco to someone younger than 19 would be subject to a $300 fine for a first violation and up to $1,500 in fines for subsequent violations.
Several other counties in the metropolitan area are considering raising the legal age for buying tobacco products, including Nassau, Westchester and Rockland. Charles J. Fuschillo, a Republican state senator whose district straddles Nassau and Suffolk Counties, has also proposed state legislation that would raise the legal purchasing age throughout the state. Only three other states -- Alaska, Utah and Alabama -- have laws setting the minimum age for buying tobacco at 19.
Paul J. Tonna, a Republican Suffolk County legislator from West Hills and a co-sponsor of the new law, said he hoped the state would eventually enact similar legislation. "That's been generally the pattern: Suffolk County does it and then the state picks it up," he said.
Tonna was referring to the county's smoking ban in workplaces, including restaurants and bars, and its ban on handheld cellphone use while driving, which were both eventually enacted statewide. "We have a tradition of enacting progressive and proactive legislation," he added.
At a 7-Eleven in Farmingdale, just a few blocks west of the Nassau-Suffolk border, Moe Shahid said the store's employees expect sales may go up slightly since Nassau County still adheres to a minimum age of 18. "But Nassau County is thinking about it and it's probably just a matter of time before it becomes a state law," he said. "So it won't be different for long."
But James Calvin, president of the New York Association of Convenience Stores, a trade group in Albany that represents more than 1,500 stores, said his group opposed the Suffolk law and would fight against a state law.
"The reality is that this will not bring any meaningful progress in the ongoing effort to restrict young people's access to tobacco," he told the New York Times.

MIAMI (AP) -- LeBron James is back on Twitter, and the Miami Heat star has more followers than ever.
The newly crowned NBA champion and NBA Finals MVP ended a nearly two-month break from social media early Friday, posting a 50-second video to thank fans for both their support and their patience.
James now has just over 5 million followers. He crossed that milestone Friday, a few hours after the Heat beat the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 5 of the finals to win the franchise's second championship.
James -- whose Twitter handle is (at)kingjames -- said he stopped tweeting during the playoffs in an effort to avoid distractions as he chased his first championship.
"I'm at a loss for words right now," James said in the video. "I want to shout-out my fans. I know I haven't been with you all the last couple months. Think April 27 was the last time I sent out a tweet. But I want you all to know that I just wanted to try to get as focused as possible on this championship run."
He paused there for a moment, pointing to his hat printed with the words "2012 NBA Champions" and the Heat logo.
"And as you can see, I am a champion," James continued. "But without you guys, it wouldn't have been possible. You guys stuck with me throughout the whole playoffs. You guys stuck with me through the last couple years. And thank you guys so much. You guys share this championship with me and this MVP trophy with me, this MVP finals trophy with me. Love you guys, and I am back."
James tweeted twice more in the next few hours. On Friday morning, after the team party ended, he wrote "I think it just hit me, I'm a CHAMPION!! I AM a CHAMPION!!"
Later Friday, he posted a photo of himself standing near his stall in the Heat locker room, holding the NBA championship trophy in one hand and his finals MVP trophy in the other.
"It's still so surreal! Don't wake me up from this feeling," James wrote.
He is the second U.S.-based athlete to cross the 5-million-follower mark: Shaquille O'Neal has about 850,000 more followers than James. And last month, the NBA became the world's first major sports league with more than 5 million followers.
On Tuesday night, James will appear on the on "Late Show with David Letterman" on CBS.

Media Join Mayor Villaraigosa and Metro
Officials on Sneak Peek Ride on Metro Gold Line Eastside Extension to East Los Angeles
Reporters were given a sneak peek train ride and tour of an underground station on the new Edward R. Roybal Metro Gold Line Eastside Extension, which will open with free rides to the public.
Joining reporters were Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, Ara Najarian, chair of the L.A. County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, L.A. County Supervisor Gloria Molina and fellow agency directors Councilman Jose Huizar, John Fasana and Rita Robinson, along with Metro CEO Art Leahy and his staff.
"The long-awaited Metro Gold Line Eastside Extension is going to greatly benefit the community by linking it with schools, hospitals, shopping and business opportunities throughout the county," Najarian said.
The highlight of the tour was a stop at Soto Station — one of two new underground stations. Public art was created specifically for the site by artist Nobuho Nagasawa and includes a hand woven stainless steel bird's nest that nestles a translucent acrylic egg.
On Sunday, Nov. 15, festivities will take place from 9am-5pm at four stations: East L.A. Civic Center Station, Mariachi Plaza, and the Little Tokyo/Arts District and Union Station. See metro.net for details.

A friend and I meet for lunch a couple of times a month, and recently we decided to try a new restaurant or café once every month, instead of always going to one of the same three places over and over. This month's choice was Jómfrúin, a Danish-style smørrebrød (open-faced sandwiches) restaurant in Lækjargata in the heart of Reykjavík. Neither of us had eaten there before, but I have eaten party food from them on several occasions (at my workplace we sometimes order canapé versions of these bread dishes to serve to special guests).
The place is small and bustling with activity. The environment is in the plain café style, with old Danish advertising posters on the walls, dim lighting and paper tablecloths. The floor is tiled and there was too much noise in there for us to have a quiet conversation. The service was fast, efficient and friendly.
You can get most of the dishes in "full" and "half" portions, which is good, because a full portion is really a meal in itself and there are so many tempting things on the menu that it is nice to be able to order half portions of 2-3 dishes, rather than just one dish.
For variety I decided to order a half-portion of a dish we have never ordered in at work, namely pastrami, and a half-portion of an old favourite, the classic "Shrimp pyramid".
The pastrami was served on French (white) bread, and topped with sauerkraut, Dijon-mustard, a slice of tomato, miniature gherkins and fresh herbs. The pastrami itself was very good and the sauerkraut went well with it, but the Dijon was a bit overpowering considering the mild flavour of the pastrami.
The shrimp pyramid was served on white bread, with Thousand Island sauce on the side and a wedge of lemon to squeeze over the shrimp. The shrimp were overcooked and therefore slightly tough, but tasted good nonetheless.
My friend had a "Bombay": toasted French bread with butter, curried chicken salad, tomato, egg, smoked salmon and caviar, and the classic herring with egg: rye bread topped with butter, spice-pickled herring, egg, tomato, onion and dill. The Bombay was okay, but she did not like the herring, said it was not as good as the herring she had tasted in Denmark (at the original bar where smørrebrød was invented).
All in all, the lunch was a bit disappointing, but I would go there again, and then I would order dishes I know to be excellent: "The Veterinarian's Supper" (liver pate, port aspic, salt pork, onions and dill on rye), roast beef (on rye with tomato, egg, fried onions and remoulade), plaice (on rye with remoulade, shrimp, asparagus, smoked salmon, caviar, and lemon), smoked eel (on rye with scrambled egg, tomato and chives) or ham (on rye with spicy beetroot salad, egg and leek).
The Jómfrúin website. The website is in Icelandic, but the menu is in English as well. To see the menu (with photos of the dishes), click on the link "Aðal matseðill" and to see the choice of hot lunch courses, click on "Heitir réttir í hádeginu".
In the summer the restaurant offers live jazz from 3 to 5 p.m., out on the patio behind the restaurant.

Workshops to discuss a new Welsh law 'designed to shape the future' will be held in Pembrokeshire this weekend.
The Wales We Want workshops will discuss the Future Generations Bill - ground-breaking Welsh legislation expected to come into being next year.
Peter Davies, Future Generations commissioner, has called for a public conversation to find out what sort of Wales people do want.
The Pembrokeshire workshops will be designed to build some agreement that can be fed into Welsh government, to influence the bill.
'Futures champion' Vicky Moller, who will be running the local workshops, said: "The bill will oblige all levels of government to make decisions that benefit future generations as well as the present.
"Some people assume that is what government is meant to do already, but of course the short electoral cycle and fear of unpopularity mean that short term interests are nearly always pandered to.
"Future generations have had a rough deal compared to mine, leading to the label 'the jilted generation'."
There will be workshops at the Hilton Court Green Fayre on Saturday, May 10, and Sunday, May 11, at 11am and 2pm, and at the Buzzing About Pembrokeshire Fair in Canolfan Hermon on Saturday, May 17, at 10.45am.
