A NATIONAL scheme to help protect victims of domestic violence has been extended to North Yorkshire and York.
The Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme (DVDS), has introduced consistent standard procedures for police to follow over the disclosure of information to partners.
The scheme, also known as Clare's Law, will allow relatives and friends concerned about people, or concerned partners, to make informed decisions about their relationships and safety.
Detective Superintendent Heather Pearson, who heads North Yorkshire Police's Protecting Vulnerable Persons' Units, said: "The scheme ensures that those who have concerns around their safety or the safety of a friend or relative, in respect of a new or existing relationship, can proactively do something about it.
"Once an initial risk assessment is undertaken to ensure no one is at imminent risk, then the case will be managed by the protecting vulnerable persons safeguarding unit and specially trained domestic abuse officers."
The scheme has already run for a 14-month pilot in Wiltshire, Greater Manchester, Nottinghamshire and Gwent, and gives the public the right to ask - through an application to police - and the right to know if their partners have a violent past.
All requests under the scheme are extensively researched, and domestic abuse officers will meet with the person requesting the information to identify any concerns.
Applications should be made through the by phoning 101, or in private at any police station.

Robert Zemeckis has plans to make a fictional adaptation of Jeff Malmberg's acclaimed 2010 documentary Marwencol. The original film's subject, Mark Hogancamp, was beaten nearly to death by a gang of teenagers. Upon awakening from a coma, he remembered almost nothing about his previous life. As therapy, he built a miniature WWII-era Belgian village in his backyard, populated by figures he made to resemble himself, his friends, and even his attackers. Hogancamp uses the figures to act out an idyllic small town life, but violence inevitably creeps into the fantasy world he's constructed.
For his dramatic retelling of the story, Zemeckis has enlisted screenwriter Caroline Thompson, best known for Edward Scissorhands and The Nightmare Before Christmas, who seems ideally suited to telling the story of a loner who lives in a fantasy world with darkness constantly on the periphery. Casting has not yet begun, but Zemeckis has announced he would like to sign on Leonardo DiCaprio to play the lead. (Also, he would like a jetpack. And some ice cream. And a pony.) Stay tuned to see either another critically acclaimed film starring DiCaprio, or another insight into which actors get handed the roles that were turned down by DiCaprio these days.

|Study of DDT and Loss of Clinically Recognized Pregnancies in South Africa
|Brief Summary
|Detailed Description
|In this study, the primary goal is to examine the relationship between DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) levels and the odds of loss of clinically-recognized pregnancies amongst women in Limpopo, South Africa. The initial protocol (which will be referred to as Part 1) planned to enroll 2,400 non-pregnant women, draw blood for measurement of DDT exposure, and follow 1,200 pregnant participants to ascertain occurrence of miscarriage. An initial two-year pilot of 850 non-pregnant women was proposed to evaluate field procedures, recruitment strategies and the reproducibility of DDT levels. Of the 444 women enrolled in the first 10 months of the pilot of Part 1, only 27 have become pregnant. Although the field procedures have been well executed, the number of pregnancies has been low. Based upon the experience to date, the approach taken so far is unlikely to generate enough pregnancies to monitor the occurrence of miscarriages. Therefore, the revised protocol (referred to as Part 2) will modify enrollment criteria to include only pregnant women who are in the early stages of pregnancy, confirmed by rising human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) blood levels taken 1 week apart or pregnant women who have a pregnancy loss within 4 weeks of enrollment. Participants who were enrolled in Part 1 of the pilot, who are still not pregnant at implementation of Part 2 will be withdrawn from the study, while pregnant participants from Part 1 will continue to be followed. In Part 2, a total of 2,400 pregnant women will be enrolled. Only those who meet the follow-up criteria (n=1,200) will be followed to determine the outcome of pregnancy. The reproducibility study of DDT levels amongst a subset of 200 women will also be dropped and replaced with an analysis using specimens that were collected in Part 1.

Enrollment criteria and follow-up criteria will be in two stages. Women will have to meet eligibility criteria to be enrolled for the study. Then, only those participants who meet the follow-up criteria will continue to be followed in the study until the end of their pregnancy. Those participants that do not meet the follow-up criteria will be withdrawn from the follow-up portion of the study.
1. Have two positive serum hCG tests at least one week apart, with the concentration of hCG in the second test being equal or lower than that of the first, and are still pregnant 4 weeks after the first blood test.

Trouble with putting in new radio...
The buttons broke on my old radio, so I go and get a new radio, match all the colors and connect them and viola, no power. I'm looking for a wiring diagram specifically for a 94 f150 with the factory amp but cans find any consistency. From what I can tell the light green/purple wire leading to the connector is what should have power, and it doesn't. The test light only lights up on the yellow/black wire and the orange/black wire. Then it lights up as we'll on the wires on the opposite sides of the connector. Please help I don't know what to do now!!
Another thing is the antenna is not yet plugged in, is that a crucial ground to make the head unit cut on? I understand it would not pickup radio frequencies without it but would it keep the whole head unit from coming on or getting power?
Hopefully that helps.
As far as the antenna goes I have had a lot of radios that would not work with out it being hooked up. I have had a lot that worked with out it hooked up. Best advice I can give you is to hook it all up and the antenna as well and then try it.
When I put my radio in my 1990 f250 almost no wires matched up color wise I had to match them up according to a wiring diagram of the truck, and the radio itself
Yeah a wiring diagram is your best bet, that's how I did it with my truck, no two wires were the same darn color so I had to wire it all up with a diagram.
Ok i figgured it out fuse was blown fuse in the power dist box not deliverin the power toward me. Thanks guys the diagram did help tremendously!
ok another problem guys.. my antenna wire wont fit into the port on the head unit. It is too large, but if I touch the end piece inside there the radio will work fine. It just wont go all the way in there. I tried looking for an adapter but nowhere has an adapter for an older truck like this. Can I just cut off the plug in pieces and strip the wire and buck connecter them together directly or is that a bad idea?
These trucks do not require an adapter look at the antennae and look at the hole on the radio they should be the same size. Of so it needs a little shove to fit inside.

|"Real World" Class
| Part
3: SCAD Boat Project
By George L. Petrie — November 2001
Of course, not all the students' ideas found their way into the final prototype. One of their most ambitious schemes was to increase the deck space when the boat was at anchor, using a molded-in door in the hull side that could swing open like a car door, deploying an additional section of decking in way of the opening. Though the scale model was built with this feature, it was eliminated in the full-size prototype because it would have greatly complicated construction.
Construction. That was the aspect of the project that really intrigued me. It's one thing to put ideas down on paper or even to build a scale model. But the concept of 20 or so college kids actually building a working prototype was impressive. It's also the root of the students' enthusiasm for the project. A third-year student, 21-year-old Chris Wawrousek, explained, "I do most of the CAD work, turning rough sketches into the final design and construction drawings. It gets built from what I draw, so it's got to be right. It's more than just a class; it's the real world."
Other students echo that theme. An energetic redhead and the only woman on the team, Juliet Bell describes herself as a "motivator," the facilitator who gets things done. She states this course is by far "the hardest class I've had all along. It is a challenge with real-world consequences. You have to take the time to do it right."
Helping them "do it right" is a group of corporate sponsors who donated time, expertise, equipment, or services. Intermarine Savannah's chief engineer Gordon Lacy worked up the laminate schedules and helped the team implement a fiberglass construction technique based on the megayacht builder's own vacuum-infusion process. Stingray donated several weeks of time on its computer-controlled milling machines to mill the mold plugs and prepare the mold surfaces, and Vector Works provided technical support in fiberglass fabrication techniques. Volvo Penta even donated a 315-hp V-8 stern drive, along with full installation support.
But make no mistake. Though they had plenty of advice and support from the pros, these students did the work themselves, to suffer the real-world consequences or reap the real-world rewards. Class is out now and the fruits of their labor will debut, for all the boating world to see, at the Fort Lauderdale boat show. And my guess is there'll be scads of designers at the SCAD exhibit, taking photos and making notes to bring a lesson home to the production builders beyond the classroom.

Getting a massage when your muscles ache is a no-brainer, like signing a guy named Michael Bestseller to a publishing contract. You can't go wrong with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $39 for one 60-minute full-body massage with a 15-minute paraffin dip for the hands and feet (an $80 value)
- $69 for two of the above massage packages (a $160 value)<p>
A seasoned massage therapist with a specialty in energy work tailors each full-body massage to the needs of the client. Before the paraffin dip, the hands and feet are moisturized while after the paraffin dip, oils are placed on the feet. A warm wax ensconces the appendages, which are then wrapped in a mitt or bootie to retain heat. The wax works to seal in moisture, leaving skin as soft as a freshly microwaved gummy bear.
New Horizons Massage Therapy
Tucked inside historic Cider Mill Sterling, New Horizons Massage Therapy guides clients toward an increased state of relaxation with an array of therapeutic services. Nimble hands ease tension from torsos and limbs, deploying techniques from Swedish and Kriya massages, or lessen pain with joint, sciatic, and neuromuscular work. Services also include full-body green-tea or mud wraps, paraffin dips, and ear candling.

Cocksure Men - Dakota Rivers Fucks Jake Steel
June 4, 2010
Southern California is full of all kinds of great places to fuck and this time around, Cocksure Men thought putting gorgeous, big dicked stud Dakota Rivers and insatiable bottom Jake Steel on a hay farm would really bring out their rough personas. Jake can't get enough of Dakota's big, fact fuck rod right from the start. Following some very passionate and lustful kissing, he drops to his knees to work that man meat with his expert throat. Dakota loves it and proceeds to buck his hips in time to Jake's great swallowing technique. Dakota soon returns some oral favors on Jake's own impressive cock, making sure to get his bottom as horny as possible for the things to cum. Well…it worked, as pretty soon Jake was bent over ready to take every inch of that man hammer up his hole!

Dwyane Wade Breaks Kobe Bryant's Nose [VIDEO]
D-Wade hacked Kobe's beak during the 2012 NBA All-Star Game. A CT scan revealed that Dwyane Wade actually broke Kobe's nose.
Subscribe to 104.5 THE TEAM on
Kobe Bryant was hit hard in the face when Dwyane Wade accidentally hacked Kobe's nose in the 2012 NBA All-Star Game. The Los Angeles Lakers announced on their website that Kobe had suffered a "nasal fracture." A "broken nose" sounds much better in my opinion. Anyway, when D-Wade unintentionally smacked Kobe in his face, the swipe actually made "The Black Mamba" bleed.
Who says there is no intensity in the NBA All-Star Game? Sure, there wasn't great defense being played as the West beat the East 152-149, but at least there was some intensity. There was a hard foul, blood, and a broken beak. Now we're talkin'. I'm not sure any player suffered an injury any worse than a hangnail in the 2012 NFL Pro Bowl. At least there was a little bit of intensity in the 2012 NBA All-Star Game.

Cool look...
By: Mary Blad
I like the way these shoes look, plus they meet the requirements for my job. Composite toes are better for me because I hate lugging around heavy steel toe shoes.

Not built to last....
By: Ashley Smith
I went on a search to find brown non-slip shoes for work last year and I finally decided upon these. I thought they were pretty good quality at first. However after some time with them I realized it wasn't a "breaking in" problem I was having. They are very uncomfortable especially around the toe area and cause constant calluses. But I think what I was most unhappy about was to spend this kind of money on a pair of shoes and in less than a years time have the sole of the shoe crack open and get wet feet from the rain. Needless to say I would not recommend these. They look like they are good quality but they in reality, are not. I work in a retail store, so it's not like they were really put to the test in rough working conditions.

Good but not durable...
By: buttercupboz
I bought this pair because I liked the look and it was within my shoe allowance. They are a comfortable shoe for everyday wear and not "clunky" like some steel toe shoes. My main complaint is that after 6 months or so the inside soul start to break apart and lining began rolling back. Overall I would buy again only if I was working a job that didn't involve being on my feet all day.

Can You Guess Which Country Star's House This Is?
At over 20,000 square feet, this home in Nashville is almost big enough to host the CMA Music Festival this summer. All that space sprawls out on six well-manicured acres of land. And it's owned by a country music superstar — or at least, that's what we're led to believe. Do you think you know who lives here?
The property is currently for sale at $19.5 million, which is more than double its 2009 market value. Inside you'll find that no expense was spared on flooring, hardware or furniture. The hallway screams castle, while the 432 square-foot master bedroom bleeds luxury. Six bedrooms, eight full bathrooms and three half baths make this place the most palatial of all homes we've seen. Click below to find out who lives here and to see more pictures of the palace.

I have a feeling a male friend of mine is falling in love with me but hasn't found the courage to tell me he has feelings for me. Do the following things mean he secretly loves you but hasn't spilled the beans yet?
1)Very sick puppy dog look in his eyes when he looks at you
2)Locks eyes and doesn't look away when talking to you
3)Stares from across the room and looks away when caught
4)Sometimes when caught admiring you, he smiles wide
5)Smiles from ear to ear the whole time you are talking to him
6)Loves to touch you gently
7)Full of compliments, really sweet ones
8)Uses your first name all the time when talking with you
9)Likes to talk about both your and his families
10)Remembers all details about you and what you have talked about
11)Tells you all his deepest darkest secrets and isn't embarrassed
12)Tells you that you are amazing and someone would be very lucky to have you in their life, romantically.
13)Moving slow and respectful of your feelings. Not rushing you.
14)When you two are talking, no one else in the world exists at that moment. You feel like you are on your own planet.
15)I have butterflies when he touches me ANYWHERE!
16)There is major electricity, sparks, fireworks when we are anywhere near each other. You could cut it with a knife!
17)Compatible on every level, conversation flows amazingly well all the time.
I keep running through these things in my mind and have a really good feeling that he's developing more that "friend" feelings for me. I have feelings for him too and would be estatic if that were the case.
What's a girl to do? Do you think he's falling for me too?

hanahula's recommendation
Especially when it comes to data storage, the more the merrier. Recognizing how quickly and easily you can add music, photos and other personal favorites to your new best friend, it has wisely upped the capacity on its latest iPhone model. In this case, bigger truly is better (although a little pricier.)

Best phone out! Google maps is amazing! Love the iPod and love the visual voicemail. Make sure to buy a case !

This phone seems like the greatest. Lots of features, super interface, and the 16 gigs is all the memory you'll need. I want this phone. I just can't afford it. I wish you didn't have to take AT&T, though.
benners's recommendation
As a business tool...there is none better. Forget everything else...the Apple Iphone is the ultimate productivity tool!

AN ARBITRAGE-FREE APPROACH TO QUASI-OPTION VALUE; Proceedings of the Fifth Joint Conference on Agriculture, Food, and the Environment, June 17-18, 1996, Padova, Italy
In the presence of uncertainty and irreversibility, dynamic decision problems should not be solved using expected net present value analysis. The right to delay a decision can be valuable. We show that the value of this right equals Arrow and Fishers (1974) quasi-option value. In a discrete model we show how to derive quasi-option value using methods from finance, methods that remove altogether the need to take expected values of future stochastic variables. Two main findings are presented. First, if the stochastic dynamic process underlying the problem is known, the Arrow and Fisher and Henry (1974) result that improper use of net present value leads to too much early development, is correct. Second, if the process is not known perfectly, their result can be incorrect in the sense that net present value methods lead to the correct outcome while the dynamic rule does not.

Orange County Animal Services has released a media advisory about what citizens can do to stay safe and stay smart when it comes to coexisting with wild coyotes in the county and throughout North Carolina.
The Director of Orange County Animal Services, Bob Marotto, says that while advisories about coexisting with coyotes have been issued for several years now, what prompted the latest alert was the recent surge in reports from the Hillsborough area involving missing outside cats and other small pets that are kept outdoors, which Animal Services has connected to the presence of coyotes preying on these pets.
"They are virtually everywhere," says Marotto, "not only in all 100 counties in North Carolina, but in all of the different areas of Orange County as well."
He says there has been a rise in coyote presence in more urban areas as well, such as one case earlier this summer in which Animal Services impounded a coyote that was found in an alley on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill.
Marotto says that the three greatest "attractants" for coyotes to invade areas in which they normally are not found are food, water, and shelter, which he says can come from a number of different sources.
Food sources can come from spills when feeding dogs or wild birds.
Marotto suggests that in order to prevent coyotes from becoming too habituated, or generally comfortable around human populated areas, people need to give the coyotes reasons to stay far away.
"People should haze coyotes if and when there is contact," says Marotto. "People should make loud noises and do things that make the coyote turn around and go away from us. If we don't do that, what happens is that coyotes become more and more comfortable or tolerant and habituated, and eventually then we do have some incidents that we really don't want to have."
In addition to likely food sources for coyotes coming from loose pet food, Marotto says that local wildlife biologists are certain that some cats and even small dogs have become part of the food chain for coyotes. In order to prevent outdoor pets from being taken by coyotes, Marotto offers a few recommendations as to what pet owners can do when it comes to allowing their beloved pets outdoors.
"One of them is not just leaving your cat or your dog outside, and leaving it outside, because in those circumstances there is not a person present to fend off or haze and deflect any approaches by a coyote," says Marotto. "In addition to being present with our dogs or cats when they are outside, if there is some consideration of leaving them outside unattended, they must really be in a secure enclosure."
Citizens are encouraged to contact Orange County Animal Services if they encounter coyotes engaging in threatening behavior or becoming habituated in residential areas, they can access the Coyote Incident Reporting Form here, or call Animal Services at (919) 942-7387.

The Buffalo Bills took perhaps the biggest steps in their first few days of free agency upgrading their special teams.
Buffalo's special teams ranked second-worst in the NFL last season, according to the latest Gosselin Rankings. So to upgrade their coverage units, they added depth with running back Anthony Dixon and cornerback Corey Graham.
Born and raised in Buffalo, Graham said he actually grew up idolizing one of the best special teams players of all-time:
"I also loved Steve Tasker. It's weird. Most people would be like, 'Why would you like Steve Tasker?' I just liked how hard he played and how hard he worked, things like that. I like to pride myself on working hard."
Graham's play in the backfield and on special teams helped the Baltimore Ravens win a Super Bowl two years ago. And Dixon got the San Francisco 49ers close the past two seasons thanks in part to his special teams play. He has played most every position on special teams, including kick returner, so he said he's ready for whatever the Bills need.
What's more, he's actually grown to love covering kicks:
"I definitely found a love of special teams in my years at San Francisco. Never had played it before I got to the league and I just got there and started watching more film, and that is part of who I am … It don't really matter where you put me, I'm going to execute."
Special teams is often a niche for players who might otherwise not be kept on an NFL roster. So to have players who actually enjoy that phase of the game is a welcome addition to the Bills, who could attribute at least two losses last season largely to special teams coverage.
The Bills further shored up special teams this past week by re-signing kicker Dan Carpenter, who made 33 of 36 field goal attempts last season.Tags: Anthony Dixon, Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo, Buffalo Bills, Corey Graham, Dan Carpenter, Football, NFL, san francisco 49ers

According to society magazine Tatler, he and his wife Samantha, are the UK's most sought-after party guests.
The couple have taken the magazine's top slot from model Kate Moss - and left celebrities such as Madonna, Mick Jagger and Liz Hurley trailing.
The magazine says the Camerons are "courted by every aspiring hostess".
Runners and riders
The pair's most recently-publicised dalliance with the glitterati came at David and Victoria Beckham's pre-World Cup Full Length and Fabulous Ball.
The couple, who were reportedly invited by Sun editor Rebekah Wade, mingled at the Beckham's Hertfordshire mansion with guests including Wayne Rooney and Ozzy Osbourne.
Topping the chart marks a huge leap for the couple who did not appear at all in Tatler's 2005 annual list of the "Hot 100" party animals in Britain, which was then headed by Kate Moss.
Allegations of drug abuse and the super-model's on-off relationship with Pete Doherty has seen her fall out of favour.
Nevertheless, Jefferson Hack, her ex-partner and father of her young daughter, and his current girlfriend Anouck Lepere, have made an appearance at number five on the list.
Pirates of the Caribbean actor Tom Hollander and his girlfriend, James Blunt's ex, Dixie Chassay are second.
Harrods heiress Camilla Al Fayed is third, followed by make-up artist Jemma Kidd and her husband, the Earl of Mornington.
Sting and Trudie Styler are in the top ten, along with Keira Knightley and Arpad Busson, ex-partner of super-model Elle Macpherson, who finds herself at number 11.
Here are some of your comments:
David Cameron came to talk to my sixth form, and I got to ask him a question. To think I have hosted and chatted with the top party guest in the UK...Jason Theodorou, Witney, England
Since when was the makings of a good party started with inviting people you don't even know for show and image?Stuart, London
Oh well. Makes for a good quiz question: What do David Cameron and Kate Moss have in common?Paul Lloyd, Ashburton

Google Maps Street View lands in iOS web app

Google to the rescue of shameless Apple again :)
Unlike Apple google actually cares about its customers no matter what OS they use!

not entirely true they want to have more customer information, you they are a search company and love to have information on location that way they can provide ads for businesses around you and keep the clients happy knowing that they are getting hits, dont get me wrong I have an android device and I love google navigation but there is always more behind a companies intention, and $$$ is always the case :).

I think it's pretty safe to say, "All Corporations & Governments agencies collect data on you".
So the only true question is this:
Who's going to give us more free stuff for the data they are going to collect on you any ways?.
10. PhenomFaz (Posts: 1236; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
sniper 1087 i hear ya mate...and its cool. you have an opinion.
But you gotta wonder Big Data is an upcoming industry and all major corporations want data so I dont mind giving it Google than to anyone else. Google is ethical, innovative and unless they have a sinister plan to convert us into mindless zombies using our personal data I dont mind sharing it. They are taking it for customizing our experience on their sites, platforms adn services.
Its like when I enter a fine dine restaurant and everything is laid out the way I want...I am not going to get creeped out rather I would be pleasantly surprised.
Its just a phenomenon called Customer Delight :)

I have Harmon and Tom Tom on IOS and have used google maps on all the droids and galaxy I have had. I like iOS maps and have found it to be a little more accurate than the others. There may be errors but not in my area. The others have been wrong for me many times. Apple is more accurate to the spot.
8. MartyK (Posts: 949; Member since: 11 Apr 2012)
Soooo Apple's chief executive Tim Cook was wrong about the mapping system and you say it's more accurate?..PA it's time to set another poll..
Windsponge VS Tim Cook
Who do you think is right about iO6 mapping system?
Check 1 for Tim Cook
Check 2 for Windsponge
12. Windsponge (Posts: 92; Member since: 01 Nov 2009)
Just stating my experience. I don't care what you or Tim cook or anyone else thinks. I have used you haven't. I don't think any of them work perfect but it is good that we all have a choice and I do hope you are satisfied with yours. I personally think Aple will start going down hill because they don't have the solid leadership they had. So for your survey I'm booting 2.

Yes, unless you are in Ontario, or really just about anywhere, since Google Maps are just as unreliable.

4. pankajgupta (Posts: 59; Member since: 09 Aug 2012)
on the Phonearena main website page, it shows "Google Maps has turned out to be a pretty big disappointment for iOS 6 users," in the snippet.

Pasta with Sausage, Spinach and Mushrooms
I made this about a week after the funeral and it was probably the first food, we enjoyed.
This is the kind of meal, hubby likes, when he arrives home from work. It has a little bit of everything and is warm and filling. I got to use up leftover cold cuts, leftover spinach, a can of artichokes which was hanging around too long and a bottle of sundried tomatoes which also was taking up space.
Pasta with Sausage, Spinach, and Artichokes (adapted from Taste of Home )
12 ounces pasta
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/3 pound cold cuts (I used turkey pastrami), chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 cup canned artichokes, chopped
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon parsley
3/4 t. black pepper
1/4 cup white wine
1 cup fresh spinach
Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain, reserving 1/3 cup of pasta water. Keep pasta warm.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add meat to pan and cook to just heat.
Add the onions, artichokes, tomatoes, garlic, oregano, parsley, salt and pepper to the skillet. Mix well to combine and cook for 5 minutes.
Add in the white wine and cook for 2 minutes. Toss in the spinach and cook for another two minutes.
Add the pasta to the pan with the vegetables, along with the reserved pasta water, and toss to combine.
Eat and enjoy.

Council discusses feasibility statement for airport
WILLMAR -- The Willmar City Council has adopted a position statement that says the old airport terminal and paved ramp area should be demolished and that the smaller hangar located nearby should be rehabilitated for an historic display about the airport and recognize a local family's contribution to aviation.
The council voted Monday to adopt the position statement. Mayor Frank Yanish said the statement will be given this morning to the Federal Aviation Administration and the Minnesota State Historic Preservation Office.
The city has been seeking to have FAA release the old airport land including the terminal area to the city for redevelopment as an industrial park after the new airport opened west of town in September 2006. But FAA has been delaying the land release because the old terminal was declared eligible for the National Register of Historic Places.
The terminal was deemed historically significant because it was built in 1941 as a National Youth Administration project with federal New Deal funds and the terminal's complex wooden roof trusses were described as a rare surviving example of the work done by an NYA work center. However, the city declared the terminal unsafe due to mold and structural problems and said it should be torn down.
But FAA and the state asked the city to study reuse of the terminal before any consideration is given to demolition and requested the city study a minimum of three reuse options for warehouse or storage purpose, manufacturing, or a use that would require extensive rehabilitation.
The council a couple of months ago authorized Engan Associates of Willmar to conduct the study at a cost of $5,000. The recently completed study looked at three potential options for rehabilitating and reusing the structure:
- Storage-only standards with a combustible storage occupancy, with office use, estimated at $646,500.
- Industrial standard with employee usage with a manufacturing and industrial use. Estimated cost: $1,127,500.
- Full public usage with an assembly and business occupancy. Estimated cost: $1,191,250.
City staff had estimated bringing the building up to code would cost from $600,000 to $1.3 million.
Also, the study estimated full demolition at $180,000 or partial demolition with removal of office area at $50,000. The cost of rehabilitating the smaller hangar is estimated at $60,000.
The position statement was recommended by the council's Community Development Committee after the panel received Engan's study.
Chairman Jim Dokken reported the committee agreed that the level of investment required to rehab the terminal could not be justified given the high costs that would need to be passed on to a buyer or tenant for the building when completed, as the rehab costs far exceed market value.
City staff told the committee that they had been working on a position statement for FAA and the state. They said it's the city's responsibility to draft a position statement for the most reasonable and prudent use of the building and to use that as the basis of the argument regarding the site.
Staff suggested the city's position should be that the terminal and paved ramp area be demolished and that the smaller hangar, known as the Rice hangar, be rehabilitated for a display recognizing the John L. Rice family contribution to aviation, as well as the history of the former airport.
It was suggested that this be done in conjunction with the County Historical Society and the Preservation Alliance of Minnesota. The proposal would also include preservation and maintenance of the former signal beacon, as well as maintenance of a parking area and access to the smaller hangar.
Council member Denis Anderson said the request seemed reasonable. He asked if the city will be able to sell the property for use as it is being used now for industrial storage.
Planning and Development Director Bruce Peterson suggested the city continue with proposed redevelopment of that site for industrial purposes. He said Bergh's Fabricating voided a purchase agreement but has the right of first refusal "as the situation plays out'' to possibly buy the parcel or the adjacent lot to the west.
"I think this is an awfully good compromise and I hope that those folks will hear us,'' said Anderson.

ROSSENDALE gave a decent account of themselves in a triangular tournament in Blackpool, despite suffering two late defeats.
In the first game against Wirral, Dale trailed 5-0 at the break but hit back after half-time, forcing Wirral into conceding a penalty on the edge of their own twenty-two, from which Ciaran Campbell went over to score.
Rossendale scored a second try through Mark Rutherford-Shaw, but Dale were denied in the last minute when Wirral sneaked a converted try to win 12-10.
Rossendale faced hosts Fylde in the second fixture, and suffered another late loss.
James Willetts crossed the line early on for their first try and Rhys Tighe scored again with the two sides locked together 10-10 at half-time.
Fylde went ahead through a converted try, but then Willetts raced half the length of the field to score and convert to level the scores.
But Fylde won it at the death with a converted score for a 24-17 win.

Evening all,
Need some help.
I have had a little experience with test automation as I have mainly been manually testing or working with offshore teams that have been building the the tests and running them then reporting back the results to me which are then presented to the client.
What I want to do is expand my limited knowledge of automation testing by learning a particular tool which will then give me more options for contracts in the future and ultimately more money (which is always nice)
So what in your opinions are
The most commonly used tool
Good courses that are worth going on/books to read
I would be welcome to become somebodies student if they are willing to teach me.

Selenium is a great tool to get playing with - although it's a bit of a "record and replay" kind of tool.
There are many great reasons to get into automation testing, and some pretty bad ones too.
The bad ones tend to be "everyone else is doing it" or "it'll be cheaper".
Automated testing requires a lot of effort up front for testing. It requires your test object to be fairly mature with screen designs not expected to change much. It takes more effort to write an automated test script, humans running a manual script can be adaptive, computers wont.
But the advantage comes if you have to run the same script again & again & again. If you think you're honestly going to be running a script 6+ times, this is a candidate for automation. Computers like testers with Aspergers are incredibly literal, and will pick up on things humans will miss. Honestly when I run that manual script the 6th time in a month I can be a bit "yeah yeah yeah".
I'm an ex-programmer, so I find it not too difficult. I'd suggest maybe looking into learning a bit of BASIC which some of the tools are based in. The main thing that helps if having a structured approach to computer language/scripting.
if you only use selenium ide then it can be 'record and replay' but it can be a lot more than that
but that reminds me of another recommendation - Everyday Scripting with Ruby: for Teams, Testers, and You
Thankyou Gents for your your answers. I will be having a look at these links in shortness of time.
I have played with Selenium and iMacaros and a re pretty simple, but as the product I am working is currently changing a lot I show a fair amount of frustration. I am involved in a project that is more design lead rather development led, which means the devs are kept under lock and key as the changes and improvements they are able to do.
AFAIK Perl is no less common than "real tools".
But a better answer will depend on what are you actually testing, Selenium is not really useful for embedded systems.
I agree. The automated testing tools you get the most out of depends on what you will be testing to a certain extent. Having said that, Selenium seems to be a popular choice for testing web applications at the GUI level and has a good learning curve - you can start with the IDE, then gradually progress into writing code in one of the many languages Selenium can work with.
QTP is another extremely popular choice it seems, but if you are learning on your own time, the license restrictions could prevent you from doing so unless your company has already invested in the tool?
I had looked at QTP. I might just have to take the plunge and get myself on a course. It cant hurt at the end of the day.
Selenium os brilliant when the product you are testing, providing the application,site has stabilised and the devs have stop putting "quick fixes, hacks" to make things work.
I'm currently learning about Ruby in my spare time.
Before going into QTP it does help to get the hand of a bit of scripting, what they're about and what you can do with them.
On QTP I had to do a really awful set of video lessons with a lady we called "Poodle Haired Lady".
But QTP can be as much a victem of frequent style changes to your GUI - it uses something called a repository as a kind of style guide for your GUI and "what goes where" I know a script automator who had to keep refreshing his cos of constant developer changes.
@Oliver Woods
Save your money and have a look at what is there for free online. QTP is really well known and there are loads of tutorials available if you look. You can also download an evaluation copy for free to practice.
You can learn RFT. Use the ITCL Framework (Google: ITCL Framework). You can also d/l & import the IBM package. It's quite easy to learn. You can also go through the util files in IBM Package.
Just go through the web page first & then start. It's plain & simple Eclipse IDE. Shouldn't be very difficult. Mail me in case you have any questions.
The only glitch could be the RFT license. You can probably d/l & learn during the free evaluation time.
Best of luck

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into 2006 and 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazers SUVs. The safety agency has received consumer complaints of the power windows switches on the driver's door melting or burning.
According to NHTSA's Office of Defect Investigations, there have been 12 consumer complaints and other reports from General Motors of the master window switch on the Chevy Trailblazer melting. Several of the consumer complaints report the master power window switches have led to fires in the driver's door. The door fires occurred while the SUVs were running as well when vehicles were left unintended and "key off," according to the NHTSA.
Separately, the NHTSA's ODI recently opened an investigation of 2007 Toyota RAV4 SUVs and Toyota Camry sedans for similar consumer complaints of door fires, also possibly due to power window switches.
Engineers with the ODI and GM will investigate the issue further and determine if an official recall for 2006 and 2007 model year Chevrolet Trailblazer SUVs is warranted.
Consumers can file a vehicle safety complaint with the NHTSA's website, www.SaferCar.gov.

In 1996 Russ McCall inherited 100 acres of land and set about transforming his dream of owning a winery into reality. He donated half the land to the Peconic Bay Land Trust to ensure the area remained undeveloped, as it was the site where the original Native American tribe, Cutchogue, set up camp. Having been a keen Francophile since travelling to Bordeaux and Burgundy with his Atlanta-based wine importer, he was determined to specialise in growing just Merlot and Pinot Noir. He asked Southold grower and original Long Island consultant Stephen Mudd to help research what Pinot Noir clones would work best in Long Island. After a few trips to Oregon, Mudd planted 11 acres with four clones of Pinot and 10 of Merlot. Until 2007 the grapes were sold off to others, but only in 2007 was the first vintage produced.
Russ McCall is passionate about producing the best wine from his vineyards in both Pinot Noir and Merlot. He has a herd of Charolais Beef cattle and the old farm tools on the Barn Cellar Door reflects the farming history of the region.
After Russ McCall attended college in Atlanta, Georgia, he stayed and started a small cheese shop. He persevered through the southern 'cheese desert' and changed his business to wholesale supplying restaurants and hotels. Soon after he expanded to wine and spent many years travelling particularly in Burgundy and Bordeaux, when awareness was beginning in America of the 'slow food' movement.
Talented French winemaker Gilles Martin made this wine using the facilities at the Premium Wine Group, allowing the grapes to ripen to full maturity before picking by hand and hand-sorting. The wine remained for 14 months in a mix of 25% new oak barriques and 25% old. Only 350 cases were made.
This is a rich, pleasing Merlot, full and rounded, with silky tannins. It has rich, spiced berries and white pepper on the nose, whilst on the palate is has deliciously silky tannins, overlaid with rich black plums. It is a rounded, balanced wine, with well-integrated oak.

I wouldn't but with Fifty Grand lingering around the half million mark in Amazon sales (which means that there are half a million things selling better) the banshee of panic has descended upon the McKinty household. How can I get the book to inch up the Amazon rankings? In these difficult times it's all about marketing (as it is in not difficult times too) and as I see it there are five main approaches:
1. Attempt To Jump on a Bandwagon
What do you think the pic to the right is all about about from just being adorable?
2. Pick A Fight
I'm done with soft targets like Bono and Abba, I'm going into the hornet's nest. President Amadinnerjacket of Iran - your beard sucks! You heard me right pal, I could grow a better beard on a weekend bender to Glasgow than you've apparently been able to grow in your whole life. What do you say to that scrofula face? Hey, any chance of an attention grabbing (but non lethal) fatwah?...And if that doesn't work just wait till you hear what I have to say about the King of Thailand
3. Generate Fake Controversy
Did I mention that I wrote this book while injecting Alex Rodriguez with steroids, while he was partying with Madonna at a naked debauch at Rush Limbaugh's house? I didn't? Well I just have.
4. Demonstrate How Much Better Your Product Is Than The Competition's
See the thing about that Che movie is that Soderberg never actually visited Cuba. Or if he did (I cant be bothered to do the research on this) he got shown round a series of Potemkin villages and probably stayed at the Hotel Nacional which is run by the freakin Cuban secret police. Whereas I lived the life, man, got drunk with real Cubans, bribed real Cuban cops, got knocked over by a real Cuban car and got solicited by thousands of real Cuban hookers, etc. etc.
5. Have a Competition That Gives Away Books
Ok lets try that one then. My box of galleys came and I reckon I can afford to give away about four of them (I'd give away them all but the postage from Oz is shocking). Therefore my next post will be that long delayed and promised signed Fifty Grand ARC giveaway, so if you want to blag a signed galley stay tuned. Oh and what the hell a book to the person who can ID who's speaking in the title quote for this post.

WITH WINGS CAPABLE OF BEATING as fast as 200 times per second and an ability to fly forwards, backwards, sideways and upside down, hummingbirds should be among the most difficult wildlife to capture with a camera. In fact, the opposite is true.
"The birds actually can be quite easy to photograph," says Alan Murphy. "They're generally not shy around people, and you can take pictures of them without a blind." Once you have the proper equipment set up, adds Rolf Nussbaumer, "you don't have to stalk them. They will come to you."
Award-winning professional nature photographers, Murphy and Nussbaumer have made thousands of striking images of hummingbirds. In the process, the two have perfected techniques you can adopt to get similar results with your camera. Here's their advice:
Lure Your Target. Because of their high metabolism, hummingbirds must consume the equivalent of their body weight in sucrose-rich nectar every day—a feat they accomplish by probing hundreds of flowers and by returning to reliable food sources such as feeders. The birds are particularly active in early morning when they awaken and in late afternoon before they go into a state of torpor at night.
"The more feeders you put out, the better chances you'll have to photograph hummers, especially during spring and fall migration when more of them may be moving through your area," notes Nussbaumer. Murphy takes a different approach: "On days when I'm shooting pictures," he says, "I remove all the feeders in my yard except one. That way, I know exactly where to focus my camera equipment."
Simplify the Background. "With high-speed photography," says Nussbaumer, "you can use a small aperture such as f/16 or f/22 to ensure the hummer is in focus, but doing so can make the background very busy." The solution: Simplify the scene by hanging a screen or poster board (in plain green or another neutral color, right) directly behind the feeder, fastening it with clamps to a tripod or other support.
Set Up Multiple Flashes. When using a 300-mm or 400-mm telephoto lens, both photographers position their cameras about 10 feet from their subjects in shady areas to avoid picking up ambient light. They use multiple electronic strobes positioned at different angles to illuminate the action, including one or two aimed toward the feeder and background and two aimed at the bird. They recommend setting up the strobes 1 to 3 feet from a feeder and connecting them using sync cords so the flashes go off simultaneously.
"You don't want your strobes to fire at full power," says Nussbaumer. "If the duration of the flash is too long, it will blur a hummer's wings." Instead, reduce each of your strobe's power to about 1/16th of full strength. Using multiple flashes will compensate for the shorter duration of each strobe.
Focus. Turn off the camera's auto-focus, which may have difficulty zeroing in on the bird's wings. Simply leave your camera focused on the spot where you expect the animal to probe for food. "A hummer will dip in to a feeder, then back away to check its surroundings before dipping back in for nectar," says Murphy, who suggests waiting to snap the shutter until the bird backs away. "You're more likely to get it looking at the camera and get the best angle to capture the iridescent colors of its gorget [patch of neck feathers]."
Go Natural. Hummingbirds have a remarkable ability to relocate quality nectar sources they previously visited. After the same bird returns repeatedly to a feeder, both photographers recommend replacing the feeder with a large and preferably red flower to attract the animal. Attach the flower to a tripod or bracket and sprinkle it with a few drops of sugar water. "You can create natural-looking images," says Murphy, "while also helping the bird meet its nutritional needs."
While backyard feeders supplement hummingbird diets and serve as magnets for photography, studies show that the birds prefer natural nectar over sugar water. Here are a few tips for creating a hummingbird garden:
• Cultivate a mix of native plants that have overlapping blooming periods to provide nectar most of the year.
• Favorite hummer plants include bee balm, cardinal flower, trumpet creeper, blood sage and red columbine. Check with a local native-plant society to learn which species are indigenous to your region.
• In breeding season, put out scraps of pet hair or other nesting materials and leave unmowed areas as habitat for the insects that hummers feed their young.
• Don't forget water. Hummingbirds need to bathe regularly and prefer a fine mist spray or shallow, moving water.

L.A. Zoo Announces Birth of Red River Hogs
The Los Angeles Zoo is proud to announce that three red river hogs were born here on April 22, 2010. This litter, one male and two females, marks the fourth litter for these parents. The piglets and their parents are currently exploring their exhibit, located in the Zoo's Africa section.
At birth, red river hogs weigh about two pounds. When full grown, they'll weigh between 120 and 264 pounds and reach three to five feet in length. Males grow to be slightly larger than females and males have a large bony protuberance on each side of their snout.
The L.A. Zoo has a larger collection of wild swine including the Visayan warty pig and babirusa. The Zoo is also home to the pigs' cousin, the Chacoan peccary.
If you would like to request b-roll or photos of the red river hogs, please call 323-644-4273.

My grandfather passed away the morning of New Years Eve.
My mum had a feeling the night before that she wanted to visit him in hospice so we did. We didn't realise who much he had gone down in such a few hours as she was there in the afternoon. Mum decided to stay the night and my brother came and kept vigil to make sure mum was ok until I got back in the early morning.
Mum then realised that she didn't have her tablets so the nurse said to go home now rather than later. So we went home (only a short distance) Mum had a shower and we were sitting down having a coffee and got a funny feeling and said we had better get back.
He had passed only minutes before we got there. That break away would have been the only break my mum would have had for the remainder of the day. So he didn't want mum to be there.
Yesterday we were visited by several willywag tails and my wedding song came on (usually does around difficult times)
Today I have been home doing printing etc for the funeral and came across a couple of photos my brother took (he's a non believer in orbs) but two of the five taken of my grandad a month? before he passed have definate small orbs in them.
Has anyone got any idea who these spirits are?
Another interesting point is that my 21/2yr old son has been really perceptive about this. Does he know something we don't?
Any feedback is much welcomed?

Velvet. Rich, smooth and easy for anyone to add into their closets and outfits. Over the years I have seen velvet slowly make its way back into the shelves of many stores and each time I see it I fall in love with it a little more. This season the velvet trend is signed, sealed and delivered. Designers such as Balmain, Altuzarra, Gucci and Lanvin all showed amazing velvet pieces in their FW 2012 collections ranging from in different colors, shapes and patterns. The best part about this trend is that it is readily available for any Fashionista!
This season you can find almost any piece of clothing in velvet from blazers to skirts to dresses. You can keep your look simple like Lanvin, or spice it up by wearing velvet in different colors like Gucci. This Fashionista chose to keep her look Lanvin-simple. Her black velvet skirt looks great with a plain tank and tights and combat boots to give her look some edge.
The key to wearing velvet is to only wear one piece of velvet at a time. I love velvet as much as the next person but velvet, on velvet, on velvet can be an overkill. Items like these shorts, this skirt and these leggings all from Topshop, are a great additions for anyones closet. This dress from ASOS and this blazer from NASTY GAL are also perfect velvet pieces for any Fashionista. Whether you go for an Altuzarra velvet blazer look or a Balmain velvet pants look, velvet for this season is a must!

The Smart Water is sprayed near nesting birds, such as goshawks and peregrine falcons, to deter thieves from plundering nests in Derbyshire's Peak District.
The invisible liquid remains on clothing for up three months and can be used to prove they have been in the area.
Birds of prey in the Upper Derwent Valley are among the most persecuted in the country and face extinction locally.
Nest eggs taken
The theft-prevention measures are being put in place by the Peak Nestwatch Scheme and will also include round-the-clock surveillance from CCTV cameras placed on goshawk nests.
Mark Thomas, spokesman for Nestwatch, said, "Some of our most precious birds of prey are being persecuted to the point of local extinction within some of their Peak District strongholds, such as the Derwent Valley.
"These birds are part of our national heritage and delight thousands of nature lovers and tourists who visit the national park each year.
"For far too long, their future has been put in jeopardy - the time has now come to put a stop to the threats facing these magnificent birds."
Last year no goshawk chicks were successfully reared in the Derwent Valley, despite nesting attempts by seven pairs of birds.
In January this year, a man was sent to jail for four months for possessing a goshawk taken from a nest in Hagg Side in the Peak District.
He was the first person in UK legal history to be sent to jail for stealing a wild bird.

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Jan. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- eyeonics(R), inc., developer of the crystalens(R), the first and only FDA approved accommodating intraocular lens, announced today that revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2007 totaled $10.4 million, an increase of 144 percent over the prior year's fourth quarter revenues of $4.3 million. The crystalens has now been implanted in more than 95,000 eyes worldwide. For the year ended December 31, 2007 revenues totaled $34.0 million, an increase of 99 percent over the prior year's revenues of $17.1 million.
About crystalens(R)
The crystalens was approved by the FDA in November 2003. During clinical trials, all of the patients who received the crystalens greatly reduced their need for corrective lenses or eyeglasses. The patented crystalens technology is designed to allow the lens to move in the eye in a manner similar to the natural human lens. By using the eye's muscle to move the lens backwards and forwards naturally, patients can focus through a broad range of vision including near, intermediate and far distances.

Maybe eventually, but even when it does you'll never know because it'll be buried under the Amazon layer.

A brother and sister had made their usual hurried, obligatory pre-Christmas visit to the little farm where dwelt their elderly parents with their small herd of horses. The farm was where they had grown up and had been named Lone Pine Farm because of the huge pine, which topped the hill behind the farm. Through the years the tree had become a talisman to the old man and his wife, and a landmark in the countryside. The young siblings had fond memories of their childhood here, but the city hustle and bustle added more excitement to their lives, and called them away to a different life.
The old folks no longer showed their horses, for the years had taken their toll, and getting out to the barn on those frosty mornings was getting harder, but it gave them a reason to get up in the mornings and a reason to live. They sold a few foals each year, and the horses were their reason for joy in the morning and contentment at day's end.
