Are the right wing media trying to make Heather Frost (council six-bedroom eco-home) top herself?(79 Posts)
And then what? cost the taxpayer even more by kids going into care?
It is relentless. I haven't stopped hearing about this woman and her children for ages now. There is NO way them kids are not paying the price at school. Their pictures are up!.
Heather Frost does not seem very bright and that is why the media have even been able to get interviews with her. She has been incredibly exploited.
This thread is not the rights and wrong of benefits - that has all been done. It is how the media can get away with this type of bullying of an individual. Give the woman a break! Even her Father is on it! below is his interview.
'Don't give my lazy daughter a £400,000 home.......make her get off her backside and work!' The father of notorious benefits mother speaks for Britain
Heather Frost, 37, lives in two houses which have been knocked together
Father, Roy Frost, has condemned his daughter as 'lazy'
The 72-year-old worked his whole life, including a stint in the RAF
Has seven children in one house, while the rest live with her in the other
Now Tewkesbury council has agreed to build her six-bedroom eco-home
Family own a horse and spend £200-a-month on stable fees
Heather Frosts new eco-home is, to use estate agent speak, a stunning contemporary living space in a sought-after location.
The house, which is still a few months off completion, has six bedrooms, three bathrooms and a huge living/dining area, ideal for entertaining.
The rear of the £400,000 property, near Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, offers fine views over fields stretching to the Malvern Hills in the distance. Yes, theres a railway line at the bottom of the garden, but you cant have everything, can you?
This week, a storm broke over the house which is being built for her and her 11 children at taxpayers expense when she coolly informed her local newspaper that the property was being built to her own specification, and that if she wasnt happy with any aspect of the design, it would be changed accordingly.
Disappointed: Roy Frost has condemned his daughter's lifestyle as he had worked for 50 years including a stint in the RAF
Wearyingly, that is almost certainly true, for the good burghers of Tewkesbury Borough Council are bending over backwards to please 37-year-old Miss Frost, who has never done a days work in her life, currently occupies two council houses knocked into one (which she says is too cramped) and is quite content to let the taxpayer foot the bill for her households day-to-day expenses.
Indeed, so well does Miss Frost do on benefits that she treated her current partner to flying lessons and has the money for her own horse, Annie, which is ridden by her 16-year-old daughter and whose upkeep apparently costs around £200 a month.
Few people, if anyone, have come out in support of Miss Frost, who first fell pregnant when she was 14. So this week the Mail sought out her father, to seek his views.
Perhaps his daughter has been misunderstood? Is she perhaps a well-meaning woman who suffers from an overabundance of maternal feeling which has led to her having so many children by a variety of fathers up to five?
Not according to Royston Frost, 72, who is angry and ashamed of his daughter. Indeed, he confesses that even he doesnt know the identity of the fathers of two of his daughters 11 children.
I didnt tell my daughter to have 11 kids, he says. I tried to stop her at five, but you cant tell someone in their 20s what to do.
Ever since she had her first child, she hasnt been able to work because shes had to look after all those kids.
She should have got off her backside and got a bloody job like the rest of us. Shes on all the benefits she can get.
Heather, 37, has had eleven children (pictured), two of which have had kids of their own.
Heather with daughters Page, 11, Till, 3 and Daisy, 5. She said that the new house will be built to her exact specifications
Dont get me wrong, shes a good mum and her kids are always clean she just has too many of them.
I cant stand what shes become. Shes lazy. I didnt raise her to be lazy. Im not lazy. Ive worked all my life until retiring five years ago.
The worst thing about the whole mess is the horse. How the hell can she afford to keep a horse when some people struggle even to put food on the table?
Family rift: Heather's (left) dad Roy Frost (right) has condemned the mother's lack of work ethic and that she continues to take from the taxpayer
Mr Frost says his daughter does not deserve the 1,850 sq foot eco-house that the council is so diligently building for her.
They should give it to a family that really needs it, he pronounces. The house she lives in at the moment is a state. I hope she respects what the council has done for her, and that shell look after the new house. But I know she wont.
Following an appearance on daytime television to defend herself, Miss Frost has been lying low at the council property where the family currently live in the village of Churchdown, Gloucestershire.
Heather gave interview on ITV's Daybreak to try and defend her actions
Heather's 16-year-old daughter Angel claims that she pays for the horse, Annie, herself
Heather's appearance on television caused an outcry across the country
Her current accommodation comprises two council houses with an adjoining door on the ground floor.
On the front drive is a battered blue Robin Reliant, with a note on the dashboard saying tax in post, a motor bike, a white minibus which Miss Frost claims has been loaned to her by a friend, and a skip.
The back garden is strewn with rubbish.
Miss Frost may be a loving mother, but no one could ever accuse her of being house-proud.
When the Mail called on her, she came to the door still wearing the make-up from her appearance on Daybreak, with pink hair and missing front teeth. She declined to be interviewed, saying shed had enough of all the fuss.
Annie the horse is the latest addition to the Frost family, and costs around £200 a month to keep
There was no sign of her partner, 57-year-old James Martin (known as Jake), a jobless lorry driver who is the father of her five youngest children. He may also be the father of another child, whose paternity appears to have been under dispute (more of which later).
Heather says they are still together, but admits he does not live at the family home anymore. She told one reporter that she was married, but the Mail has been unable to find a marriage certificate.
Heather Frost was born in Cheltenham in 1975 to Royston Frost and his wife Pamela, who had two other children, Deborah, now 44, and Neil, 42. Royston spent five years in the RAF in his 20s and then worked for the next 40 years in factories around Tewkesbury.
Around the time of Heathers birth, the couple divorced, but they remarried in 1977. They split up and divorced a second time, and Royston remarried in 2003, to a woman called Coral Allen, with whom he lives in Tewkesbury.
When she was 14, Heather fell pregnant with her first child, Sophie, with her then-boyfriend, John OReilly, then 23, and gave birth in July 1991. (Sophie, now 21, has a two-year-old son, Ashley).
Two years later, in August 1993, Heather gave birth to a son, Toby, now 19, whose father according to the childs grandfather, Royston is a man called Toby Stevens. (Toby junior now has a one-year-old son of his own, Tyler.)
Three years after that, in October 1996, Heathers 16-year-old daughter, Angel, was born. Royston Frost has no idea who Angels father is.
In July 1998, Heather gave birth to her second son, Jay, now 14. According to Royston Frost, Jays father is an Asian shopkeeper, but he knows no more than that.
The council has knocked through two houses to create a larger one for the family, who have lived there for five years
Chloe, 13, arrived in February 2000. Royston Frost believes her father is John OReilly (the father of her first child), though on her birth certificate the father is not named.
These five children all have their mothers surname.
A year later, in February 2001, Paige OReilly was born. Her name suggests the father is John OReilly, but her birth certificate does not name the father.
It is rumoured, in fact, that Jake Martin is Paiges father. Indeed, last year, Miss Frost appeared on an episode of ITVs The Jeremy Kyle show wouldnt you just know Heather Frost had been on Jeremy Kyle? in which the paternity of one of her children was discussed.
According to birth records, Jake Martin is the father of Heathers five youngest girls Emily, who turned ten on Tuesday, Bethany, eight, Ruby, seven, Daisy, five, and Tilly, three.
Royston Frost says Heather told him that Jake Martin had wanted a baby boy, which may be some sort of explanation as to why she kept having more children.
She has also said she doesnt believe in abortion. Or contraception, clearly.
Their front garden, which holds a skip, a battered mini van, an old Robin reliant and a new car
The back of the property is strewn with rubbish and a giant trampoline for the children
The two eldest children no longer live with their mother. As well as nine children in the two adjoining properties, there is a macaw called Jake, a black Labrador called Katie, two Chihuahuas called Pebble and Teddy, a cat called Kit Kate, two guinea pigs, Bubble and Squeak, a rabbit called Eddie and three goldfish.
So thats nine children, a mini zoo and Annie the horse in a paddock down the road.
Just how does Miss Frost afford it? Tewkesbury Borough Council declined to reveal how much money the family receives in benefits.
However, the Mail logged on to the Department of Work and Pensions benefits entitlement calculator and entered Miss Frosts details, such as the number of children under 20 not in work and the fact that she is a lone parent and therefore excused from working.
The calculator totted up a sum of £865.92 per week owed to Miss Frost, made up of £71 income support, £526.40 child tax credit, £100 housing benefit, £27.62 council tax benefit and £140.90 child benefit.
Plans for the new £400,000 family home that heather claims she has complete control over
Over a four-week period, Miss Frost will receive £3,463.68.
Over the course of a year, that figure will give Miss Frost an annual income of £45,027.84. To generate that level of net income if Miss Frost were, perish the thought, in work, she would need a gross annual salary of £66,000.
Which explains a lot such as how Heather can afford a pony for Angel, although Angel claims she pays for the animal with money she earns from babysitting. Is she referring to babysitting her siblings?
It may also explain how Miss Frost had the money to pay for Jake Martin to have microlight flying lessons, which cost up to £115 an hour, for Christmas one year, according to Martins 34-year-old daughter, Leanne, from another relationship.
For her own part, Miss Frost claims she lives modestly and limits her children to £100 each at Christmas. Times that by 11. Thats £1,100 spare cash for presents, then.
Heather has been living at her two-house council home for the past five years. According to her father, one previous property the family lived in burned down.
She already had one house that burned down, and they were lucky then, he says. Mr Frost did not elaborate on the circumstances of the fire.
The Mail calculated that the Frost family would receive over £3000 per month in benefits, giving them an annual salary in excess of £45,000
The new eco-house, which the family is due to move into in June, has a modern, energy efficient design, and has been built using natural, locally-sourced materials. Extra-large windows will fill the house with natural light.
Miss Frost told the local paper: Its being built especially for me. If I get there and I say to them I dont like it, or its too small, then they will just have to build me a bigger one, wont they?
Perhaps the vista of the Malvern Hills wont be to her liking. Or she might decide she needs a house with a stable block for Annie.
Referring to her current accommodation, she said: We got this three-bed house and they knocked a doorway through to the one next door.
It was meant to be for four months but weve been here for five years now. It is a nightmare because you cant keep an eye on the children in the other house.
Tewkesbury Borough Council came up with the idea for the eco-house after selling a plot of land in the town to Severn Vale Housing association for a discounted price of £210,000.
The condition of the sale was that one of 15 homes they were building on the site would be given to Miss Frost and her family.
But Heathers father, for one, says she should make do with her current property.
What they should do, is the council should properly make those two houses into one.
Two years ago, Miss Frost was diagnosed with cervical cancer and the treatment is said to have made her sterile. That was a blessing in disguise, if you ask me, says Mr Frost.
I know its my daughter, and I would do anything for her, but the damage has been done. Shes got 11 children, and that cant be undone.
This week, the mother-of-11 defended herself, saying shed been planning to set up her own business running a shop, but then fell ill.
She claimed she was having second thoughts about the new house. Im not sure whether to take it because of all this s***.
Its now 50/50, she said, as to whether they will move in.
If you were to place a bet, what would you put your money on?
Small detail, I know, but just to clarify, I live very close to the house that is being built for her and it does not have views of the Malverns and I can assure you that if any one of you had £400,000 to spend on property you would not spend it on that. There is a train line extremely close by and from what i can see from the road I doubt there will be much garden at all. It is not a mansion by any means in fact the small terrace of houses they are building are quite ugly.
and its a smokescreen - or rather more like a waving flashing beacon, beckoning us to look in its direction so we aren't looking at the real big picture which is the government are fucking us over.
the daily mail have a fucking cheek publicising this shit
Lord Rothermere estimated a whopping £730 million fortune by the Sunday Times Rich List 2011, including ownership of £547 million of the value of the Daily Mail Group. Was domiciled in France for tax purposes - i dont know whether this has changed due to france's recent tax banding ( he may have gone the way of gerard depardeu)
Heather, 36, appeared on Daybreak earlier today to justify her lavish lifestyle

Custardo your link is not working for me
I really don't understand why this women is getting a bashing. Where is the fathers of these children.
Jesus fucking christ that's so full of venom. Really really vicious.
They don't see her as an actual person! The right wing media have been working for a few years now to dehumanise people, because it's easier to manipulate people into harming the most vulnerable in society if they're merely a negative label. Who wants to give money to a scrounger with a clown car womb when there are "deserving poor" like, for instance, cancer survivors. Oh dear, she's that too isn't she? And was a vulnerable child etc etc. Fuckers.
It's turned into a witch hunt, and now this woman's own father has lambasted her.
The way that I see it is that this woman was the victim of child abuse by getting pregnant at 14 to a man in his 20's. Why no intervention then? the father of this woman said I tried to stop her at five, but you cant tell someone in their 20s what to do.' no but you can help your 14 year old daughter who had been abused. You have failed as a parent.
This woman has little more than a primary school education, and has been failed left right and center. What happens when her kids leave home? It is sad more than anything.
What a dreadful father. Sounds like she had a far from ideal upbringing and an unstable childhood, and his reaction to her cancer is that it's a blessing. Parent of the year award for the smug bastard.
I don't agree with the way the kids photos have been plastered all over the papers. It's not their fault
Drove past the half built 'mini-mansion' yesterday, it looks very nice so far I must say. Would cost you or I £400,000+ I'd bet
The story ie what it is, that article is vile.
All new social housing must meet eco criteria.
It's vile. If people want to criticise the benefits system, that's up to them, but to target one woman like this is despicable. Who knows how vulnerable she is? Which of us would enjoy seeing articles about ourselves in which we're described as lazy scroungers in the national press? How must it feel for her children?
You might not like the fact that this woman has 11 children and is unemployed (and I agree, it's not an ideal state of affairs) but she has done nothing illegal. There are people out there who have done far worse stuff, but they don't receive this kind of vilification.
I read somewhere yesterday that she has only been on benefits for the past 6 or 7 years and is recovering from cervical cancer so can't work at the moment. If this is true and she has worked all her life (apparently she was going to start her own business before she got cancer) then it makes me really cross that the media are attacking her and her children in this way. And as for her own father... don't get me started.
Was she really on JK last year undergoing a DNA test for one of her brood?
These high profile cases are always designed toget the public up in arms about the whole welfare state. And it works a treat.
Situations like this annoy me because the state facilitates it. Something has gone horribly wrong if she wasn't given adequate contraceptive advice, given access to education as an adult and encouraged to make different choices with her life.
The whole thing will perpetuate. It's about time CBA was capped at 2 maybe 3 children.
However there is nothing in her life I would want.
The whole tone of that article makes me sick.
"She told one reporter that she was married, but the Mail has been unable to find a marriage certificate." so fecking what? its none of your business!
She'd have been better off keeping her head down - posing for the paper and appearing on TV was never going to do her any favours. As already said she doesn't seem that bright, and the media are just abusing that, IMO.
"It's about time CBA was capped at 2 maybe 3 children."
Why two or three? Why not one child?
Where's the childrens fathers in all this? Why aren't they providing for the children or are they a bunch of scroungers?
I've always been dead against women who pop so many kids out and expecting the tax payer to foot the bill but I think enough is enough.
It's the system that's at fault.
I wish papers would leave her, her football team, horse and parrot alone now..it's boring me now.
DM - pffft!
Just want to bring up the mini zoo comment. The woman has a few family pets, cat, dogs, rabbits...the norm. I can't believe they are even counting the fecking gold fish. Any thing to make it seem she is screwing people over.
Witch hunting at the DM's best. Wankers
Because with advances in medicine and peple living longer, we do need children to provide for us in our old age. Care homes wont be running themselves.
2 maybe 3 should suffice
Maybe if her father had shown a bit more interest in her growing up she wouldn't have got pregnant at 14 by a 23 year old (why aren't the media going after the rapist?). What a worthless piece of shite her father must me.
And looking after 11 children... that is a job isn't it, a bloody massive one. I can only just get out of the house in the morning and I only have 3 . Personally I would not have made her choices, but I think her situation is exceptional, and i am proud to live in a country where we look after the most vulnerable in society and don't toss kids out onto the streets to starve.
Why does society put up with this type of misanthropy? Where are the fathers of the kids, the absent ones who shag about then fuck off? Why aren't the media going after them? Unbelievable.
Heather gave an interview on Daybreak this week and put a lot of that straight but it seems to have been ignored.
1. There are 3 fathers, one of which is her current partner and is unemployed so unable to contribute anything more than minimal amounts to his children and the other two have had nothing to do with their children and won't contribute.
2. The horse was a gift from a friend which her daughter is responsible for.
3. She never said that she would just tell them to build another house if it was unsuitable, this has been fabricated.
4. She was in the process of setting up a store but was diagnosed with cervical cancer which left her unable to continue with the plans and the chance has not arisen again.
5. Heather has however since gone on to say that she may not accept the property on the ground that the media had printed revealing details including specific address which she believes may endanger her children.
I admit when I first read the story I thought she was vile but hearing her side has made me rethink and realise that her situation is far from ideal but there is always a reason behind it in her case it would seem that she has just had a bit of a rough ride.
So to summarise:
She is raped at 14 by a grown man, a man known to her family. He gets her pregnant and gets away with it.
Her own father is a creature.
She has ELEVEN children that she manages to keep clean(?)
She worked then got cancer so stopped working.
She's moving from temporary housing. Because it's temporary.
If she's lazy I'm a penguin!! She's raising an army of children. Wether you think she should have them or not is largely irrelevant. They're here now and she's taking care of them.
You show me a job that will cover child care costs for the 8 of her children that will need it!
I'm not saying she's a paragon but FFS the bashing is just vile.
I believe these stories come out so that when the government cut all the benefits and leave people in poverty the majority of people (mail/sun readers) won't complain and will be all for it as they have been manipulated and led to believe that this is mainly what their tax money goes on. The truth of the matter is this kind of situation is incredibly rare.

It is time to learn from mistakes in the past: Sibal on 2G scam
Kapil Sibal admitted that a few mistakes had been made with regard to the allocation of 2G Spectrum.
New Delhi: Union Communications and Information Technology Minister Kapil Sibal on Friday admitted that a few mistakes had been made with regard to the allocation of 2G Spectrum, but added that it is time to learn from such mistakes so that they are not repeated in the future.
Commenting on the Joint Parliamentary Committee report on the 2G scam, a draft copy of which was leaked, Sibal said that he remembered how the media speculated when the JPC report wasn''t revealed. "I believe that till the report is not discussed in Parliament, it will not be correct to start a new argument and start its discussion in the public domain," the minister said.
He appealed for patience from all sections of society, including the opposition, which he said is habitual of raising a new issue everyday. Earlier, the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) investigating the 2G spectrum scam has pinned the blame on former telecom minister A.Raja and exonerated both Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Finance Minister P Chidambaram.
According to media reports, a leaked draft report of the committee says Raja had tweaked the rules to award mobile permits to a few chosen companies, and that the prime minister and finance minister were not informed about the changes.
"The committee is inclined to conclude that the prime minister was misled about the procedure decided to be followed by the Department of Telecommunications. Further, the assurance given by the minister of communications and information technology in all his correspondence with the prime minister to maintain full transparency in following established rules and procedures of the department stood belied," the draft report said.
The report also contradicts the national auditor''s claim that Raja''s scam-tainted licence allocation process in 2008 had caused a loss of 1.76 lakh crore to the exchequer. The report extensively criticises the methods adopted by the CAG, including its use of 3G auction figures (the auction was carried out in 2010) to compute the so-called presumptive loss in 2008.

You are a beautiful human being and there is no way I could express how happy it makes me, seeing that someone has taken like a minute out of their day to comment on something that I have literally spent days on. Especially the ones where you're like "It was great! I can't wait for the next one!" because those are definitely the best.

You are just wonderful. Thank you so much.

There's a sad man inside
With both hearts torn in two
Put this in your profile if you will always be a Whovian!
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all who wander are lost.
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

A light from the shadows shall spring.
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
Put this in your profile if you will always be a Lord of the Rings fan!

Comet ISON is Already Visible in North Eastern Skies
Published on Aug 10, 2013 on the YouTube Channel by Nemesis Maturity
Update August 10,2013 - There are 110 days until perihelion of Comet ISON Perihelion is due to occur on 28 November 2013, at 18:40:47 UTC (Perihelion time via JPL - updated on August 7, 2013)
Comet ISON is currently 233,829,879 miles (2.515495 AU) from the Sun, and travelling at 59,513.74 mph (26.61 km/s)
Earth Distance: 321,529,265 miles (3.458948 AU) Constellation: Cancer
On August 10th, the time projected (tp) value calculated by NASA for perihelion (closest to the sun) was 2013-Nov-28.77833189. That's the equivalent of November 28, 2013 at 18:40:47 UTC.
ISON's size is only estimated at present but is thought to be around a few miles in diameter. This will become more apparent in the next few months as the comet continues its approach during 2013. Astronomers who have been processing data from NASA's Swift satellite, estimate the comet to be around 3 miles in diameter. They have reached this conclusion by observing the amount of ice and dust emitted from ISON's surface as it falls through space toward the Sun.
ISON is currently between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, but from Earth's perspective, it appears behind the Sun's glare. ISON entered the Sun's glare back in June and should become observable by NASA's equipment in mid-August or early September at the latest. It's projected that it will become visible to the naked eye by early to mid-November.
ISON's average speed throughout August will be 60,462mph. It will continue to accelerate steadily until 28th November when it'll whip around our Sun at an astonishing 425,000mph!

Focus: Increase in impaired driving due to legal marijuana?
Focus on: Personal Injury Law
"Because it will be a novelty, a lot of people will try it," predicts Andrew Bergel, a partner at Bergel Magence LLP in Toronto. "They will drive and there will be a lot more accidents and a lot more injured victims. In the first year or two, we will see more injuries; then it will decrease back to normal levels."
The Ministry of the Attorney General of Ontario has the impending changes on its radar.
"We are aware of news reports that the federal government will introduce legislation next month to legalize cannabis," says spokeswoman Emilie Smith. "We look forward to seeing the federal government's bill, and we will be monitoring it closely as it progresses through the legislative process."
Bergel says due to the changes, an increase is anticipated in terms of criminal charges and civil cases, stemming from recreational use of marijuana.
"We would anticipate a bit of a boom from decriminalizing marijuana. What we've had in this country is medical marijuana," says Christopher Dawson of Lerners LLP in Toronto, referring to laws permitting the use of medical marijuana that came into effect last April.
"A lot of people who don't necessarily have access to marijuana now will want to use it for the purpose of impairment. We're always concerned that they'll get behind the wheel or engage in reckless behaviour that does damage to themselves or others. That's the genesis of the idea that we may see a spike in impairment."
On Dec. 13, 2016, the federal Task Force on Cannabis Legalization and Regulation released its report with 80 recommendations on how to address the impending changes. The report stressed the need for provincial public education campaigns regarding marijuana impairment, emphasizing the message to avoid consuming marijuana before driving.
The task force has also recommended investment in research linking levels of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, the psychoactive component of marijuana that causes intoxication, with impairment. This will inform the establishment of a per se limit similar to the limits for alcohol-impaired driving and graduated sanctions ranging from administrative sanctions to criminal prosecution depending on the severity of the infraction.
The federal government is expected to introduce a bill to legalize marijuana this spring.
"The area needs to be given significant consideration by the government to ensure that the other laws in the country are equipped to handle it," warns Dawson, citing roadside policing as a main concern.
"We have laws addressing sobriety testing for alcohol. As an officer enforcing the safety of the roads, how do you address marijuana impairment? There is no method to detect it."
Ian McLeod, senior advisor at Justice Canada, says the department is currently examining ways to improve the ability to detect and prosecute drug-impaired drivers.
"The government's scientific advisor is reviewing the scientific literature on whether or not blood drug concentration levels could be assessed for a number of impairing drugs, including cannabis," he says.
McLeod draws attention to a Dec. 14, 2016 announcement that Public Safety Canada, in collaboration with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators, is piloting the use of oral fluid screening devices to test how well officers are able to use roadside drug-testing devices on motorists under different weather conditions. "The results will help inform how police services counter drug-impaired driving in Canada," he says.
In Ontario, various initiatives regarding the detection of drug-impaired driving are already underway, including roadside data collection, THC research, device testing and an ongoing field test pilot of testing devices. "The Ontario government takes the issue of impaired driving very seriously — it is completely unacceptable," stresses Smith.
"Notably, as of Oct. 2, 2016, the Ontario Ministry of Transportation has implemented new provincial administrative sanctions for drivers impaired by drugs or a combination of drugs and alcohol."
The Making Ontario's Roads Safer Act, 2015 escalates short-term driver's licence suspensions and introduces a long-term 90-day suspension, a seven-day vehicle impoundment, mandatory remedial education and treatment and/or monitoring for repeat occurrences. "Ontario is well prepared," says Smith.
In the criminal arena, McLeod says, the Criminal Code already includes a comprehensive approach to impaired driving, including drug-impaired driving.
"This approach includes authorizing police to conduct roadside sobriety tests and to conduct drug recognition evaluations. Criminal penalties for drug-impaired driving include a minimum fine of $1,000 (on a first offence) and a one-year Criminal Code prohibition from driving anywhere in Canada (on a first offence)," he says.
Michael Lesage of Michael's Law Firm in Hamilton, Ont. says, "Concerning criminal/quasi-criminal penalties, I would imagine the solution ends up looking quite similar to what we currently have in place for alcohol use.
"You can have some in your system, but above a certain level, or if you're showing visible signs of intoxication, you are subject to various penalties," he says.
"I imagine this will be good news for various device makers, who will no doubt make out well selling police various machines guaranteed to detect THC or other compounds, which will likely have widely varying degrees of success and accuracy."
Drugalyzers, which are saliva-based testing devices, are currently in use in Europe, Australia, the U.K. and Ireland. They have proved controversial because they test for the presence of the drug, not for impairment. As of yet, there are no devices or guidelines available to assist drug users to gauge when it is safe to drive after smoking marijuana.
An increase in impairment cases, and increased detection of drug use, could have an impact on the benefits and damages recovered by those involved in accidents.
"In terms of accident benefits, entitlement to income replacement benefits, non-earner benefits and other expenses are excluded by s. 4.4 of the [Ontario Automobile Policy] 1 where the claimant was convicted of a criminal offence involving the operation of an automobile," states Lesage.
Dawson says that insurance effects will depend on which behaviour the legislature sets as contravening a law.
"It depends if the legislation equates it to that. If the driver is truly impaired but it's not in any legislation, the driver hasn't contravened the policy and is not under any penalty," he says.
In the civil arena, Lesage foresees the legalization of marijuana leading to unintended consequences.
"In the third-party context — where a plaintiff sues a driver who was impaired or a restricted driver — it may be possible for the insurer to argue that same constituted a breach of a statutory policy condition, allowing the insurer to limit itself to paying the statutory minimum of $200,000, provided the insured [the intoxicated driver] can't defeat the defence," he says.
"The existing standard Ontario auto policy excludes coverage under s. 7.2.2 for accidents caused by drivers under the influence of intoxicating substances. This means that in the first-party context — claims against your own insurer for loss or damage claims to your automobile — coverage is voided by the exclusion, leaving the insured up the creek."
Dawson thinks proof of marijuana impairment will be very relevant in respect to civil liability.
"If you have got evidence that someone caused an injury to others, say an at-fault motorist or other tortious act, and they were impaired because of marijuana, that is grounds for negligence and instructive for tort action," he says.
Dawson speculates that "it might be a battle of experts for a time while they are developing data and studies regarding the relevance of composition of the body, body mass and toxicology.
"It can affect the body differently from person to person. Different chemicals enter the bloodstream, different strands of marijuana are used and there are different methods of ingesting it," he says.
"It's a lot more complicated than alcohol — for which you ask how many drinks were consumed within an hour or within an evening, and take a blood alcohol reading. It's all very open for a lot of debate and lot of research."

The present invention is directed to an insert for a notebook, and more particularly, to an insert that can be removably coupled to a coil bound notebook.
Coil bound notebooks are often used by students, professionals and other users to provide paper and writing surfaces for notes, homework assignments, sketches and the like. The papers bound in the notebooks may be used as part of the notebook, or removed for standalone use. The notebook may also include a plurality of tab dividers, pockets, pouches, or other organizational features for receiving loose papers or other items, and typically include a wire or plastic coil that binds the papers, covers, pockets, dividers, and other components of the notebook together. In this manner, a coil bound notebook is a versatile, flexible tool which can serve as an organizer, storage device, paper dispenser and writing tablet.
In a typical coil bound notebook, the various components are permanently bound together by a binding coil, which permanently fixes the location of the components. In order to provide greater flexibility, dividers and other notebook components having a quick-attach feature have been developed, which enables the component to be releasably coupled to the coil. This provides the notebook with a customization ability; that is, the various components of the notebook can be coupled to the coil at any desired location through the thickness of the notebook. However, existing quick-attach features either do not securely hold the component into the coil, or are difficult to remove from the coil. Accordingly, there is a need for an insert for a coil bound notebook which can be securely yet releasably received in the coil.
The present invention is an insert for being coupled to a coil bound notebook which is securely coupled to the coil, yet can be easily removed. In one embodiment, the invention is an insert for being coupled to coil, the insert comprising a piece of sheet-like material having an inner edge and a plurality of wings. Each wing has a central stem extending outwardly from the inner edge and a pair of tip portions located on opposed sides of the central stem. Each tip portion extends inwardly toward the inner edge to define a coil receiving portion located between the stem and the associated tip portion. Each coil receiving portion is shaped and located to receive a turn of the coil therein to couple the insert to the coil.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following description and the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a top view of a notebook with a notebook insert of the present invention received therein;
FIG. 2 is a front view of the insert of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a back view of the insert of FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is a detail view of a wing of the insert of FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is a detail view of the wing of FIG. 4 mounted to the coil of a coil bound notebook;
FIG. 6 is a top view of an adapter using the quick-attach feature of the present invention, shown in conjunction with a piece of paper;
FIG. 7 is a top view of the adapter of FIG. 6 receiving the paper therein;
FIG. 8 is a top view of an alternate embodiment of the adapter of FIG. 6; and
FIG. 9 is a side cross section taken along line 9—9 of FIG. 8.
As shown in FIG. 1, the insert of the present invention, generally designated 10, is a tab divider shaped to be received in a notebook 12 having a coil 14 or other similar coil binding mechanism. The notebook 12 includes a plurality of papers 16, each paper having a plurality of binding holes 20 formed therein. For example, top paper 18 includes a plurality of binding holes 20 visible in FIGS. 1 and 4. Each binding hole 20 receives a turn of the coil 14 to bind the papers 16, 18 to the coil. The notebook preferably has a front cover 22 and a rear cover (not shown), as well as other pockets, dividers and other components (not shown) spaced throughout the thickness of the notebook 12. Each of the components typically includes a plurality of binding holes 20 to bind the component to the coil 14.
As best shown in FIGS. 2-3, the tab divider 10 includes inner 26, outer 28, top 30 and bottom 32 edges, and is preferably made of cardboard, plastics, polypropylene, or other materials. The tab divider 10 preferably includes a lower panel 34 attached to its front face 31. The lower panel 34 and main panel 36 form a pocket 38 therebetween for receiving papers and other loose items. The tab divider 10 may also include a tab portion 40 extending outwardly from the outer edge 28 to serve as a locator/identifier. The tab portion 40 can be located at various locations along the length of the outer edge 28, as desired, to form a tab locator system with other tab dividers.
The tab divider 10 includes a plurality of wings 42 extending generally outwardly from the inner edge 26 of the tab divider. As shown in FIG. 4, wing 26 is generally rectangular in top view, and includes a pair of coil receiving portions 44, each coil receiving portion 44 having a coil receiving opening 46 formed therein. Each coil receiving opening 46 has a throat portion 48 and an inner portion 50. Each inner portion 50 is generally circular in top view and is shaped and located to receive the turn of a coil 14 therein to couple the tab divider 10 to the coil 14. The diameter of each inner portion 50 is preferably smaller than the diameter of the binding holes 20 of any adjacent components that increase the surface area and strength of a wing.
Each throat portion 48 is shaped and located to enable a turn of the coil 14 to be passed therethrough and be received in the associated inner portion 50. Each throat portion 48 extends generally parallel to the inner edge 52 of the tab wing 26 and the inner edge 28 of the tab divider 10. Each throat portion 48 is preferably a "channel" defined by a narrow opening between the inner edge 52 of the wing 26 and the inner edge 28 of the tab divider 10. However, the throat portion 48 may simply be a slit cut in the divider (i.e. in this case the inner edges 52, 28 are immediately adjacent or in contact). When the throat portion 48 is a slit, it is simply a cut in the material of the divider 10, and no material is removed. However, in this case the edges of the slit throat portion may be deformed when the turns of a coil are passed through the throat portion 48, which can be unsightly and may catch papers thereon. Accordingly, the illustrated "channel" throat portion 48 is preferred.
Each wing 26 includes a central stem 54 that extends generally outwardly from the inner edge 28 of the tab divider 10, and a crown portion 56 that extends generally transverse to the central stem 50. The crown portion 56 includes a pair of indentations 57, which define the inner portions 50 of the coil receiving openings 46, each indentation 57 being located on opposed sides of the stem 54. Each wing includes a pair of tip portions 53, 55 that extend from the crown portion 56 toward the inner edge 26 of the tab divider 10. The tip portions 53, 55 define the coil receiving portions 44 located between the tip portions 53, 55 and the central stem 54. The tip portions 53, 55 help to maintain a turn of the coil 14 in the associated coil receiving openings 46
The wing 26 includes an inner edge 52 that extends generally parallel to the inner edge 28 of the tab divider 10, a pair of side edges 60, 62 that extend generally perpendicular to the inner edge 28, and an outer edge 64 that extends generally parallel to the inner edges 52 of the wing. The wing 26 includes rounded corners at the intersections of the side edges 60, 62 and the inner 52 and outer 64 edges of the wing to prevent the wings from "catching" on the coil 14 or papers 16. The indentations 57 and coil receiving openings 46 are also preferably defined by curved edges to reduce interference between the wings 26 and the coil 14 and papers 16.
In order to couple the tab divider 10 to the coil 14, the wing 26 is deflected such that a turn of the coil 14 (i.e., turn 68 of FIG. 5) is passed through the throat portion 48 and received in the associated inner portion 50 of the associated coil receiving opening 46. Similarly, the other end of the wing 26 is then deflected such that turn 70 is received through the associated throat portion 48 and received in the associated inner portion 50 of the associated coil receiving opening 46. The same procedure is repeated for the remaining wings 26 to attach the tab divider 10 to the coil 14. The sequence of operations is reversed to decouple the tab divider 10 from the coil.
It should be understood that by the term "turn" of a coil, it is meant any length of the coil which is received through a binding hole 20 of a paper 16, 18 or coil receiving opening 46 of a wing 20. For example, in some coils, each turn may be comprised of two or more parallel, closely spaced wires.
The throat portion 48 of each coil receiving opening 46 is preferably wide enough to allow easy insertion and removal of at least one turn of the coil 14, but is small enough to not compromise the strength of each wing 26. The number of wings 26 may be increased or decreased as desired, although it has been found that five wings as shown in FIGS. 1-3 is preferred for use with a standard size notebook.
As shown in FIG. 5, two (preferably adjacent) turns 68, 70 of the coil 14 are received in each wing 26. A distance A extends between the mid-point 80 of adjacent turns 68 and 72 and the mid-point 82 of adjacent turns 70 and 74. By the term "midpoint" it is meant the midpoint of an imaginary line 81 drawn between the turns 68, 72 and perpendicular to the turns 68, 72, and the midpoint of an imaginary line 83 drawn between the turns 70, 74 and perpendicular to the turns 70, 74. The length B of each wing 26 is preferably greater than the distance A, but of course shorter than the distance between turns 72 and 74. This length B of the wing 20 provides a large surface area and strength to the wing 26, and helps prevent the wing from being pulled out from the coil 14 when external forces are applied to the tab divider 10. Furthermore, because the length B is shorter than the distance between turns 72 and 74, the wing does not interfere with the papers or other components of the notebook.
The width C of the tab divider 26 is preferably selected such that the inner edge 28 of the tab divider 26 does not extend beyond the inner edge 61 of any adjacent papers 16, 18. This ensures that the wings 26 do not interfere with the pages of the notebook 12 when the pages are turned in the notebook. Furthermore, as noted earlier, all corners of the wing 26 are preferably rounded off to prevent any sharp corners from interfering with the papers 16, 18 or coil 14, or from scratching the fingers of the user.
The wing connector system of the present invention can be utilized with nearly any component which is desired to be coupled to a notebook, including but not limited to rulers, pouches, dividers, pockets, protective covers, school supplies, other notebooks, papers, writing instruments, electronic devices, planners, reference cards and the like. The present invention enables the component, or insert, to be coupled to the notebook at any location through the thickness of the notebook. Thus, a user can move components having the wing connector system of the present invention to customize the notebook. Furthermore, components such as calculators, pouches, electronic devices, pockets and the like having the wing connector system of the present invention can be releasably coupled to the coil bound notebook such that the components can be used in a standalone mode, and then reattached to a coil bound notebook for storage.
As shown in FIG. 6, the quick attach feature of the wing connectors 26 may be used with an adapter 100 for coupling a loose leaf paper 102 or papers having a plurality of holes 104 formed therein to a coil bound notebook. The holes 104 are typically located such that the paper 102 can be coupled to a three ring binder. The adapter 100 includes a strip of material 108 having a plurality of pliable prong components 110, each prong component being shaped and located to fit through an associated hole 104 in the paper 102, and deflected to couple the paper 102 to the adapter (see FIG. 7).
In order to couple a paper 102 or plurality of papers to the coil, the pliable prong components 110 are first folded to their upright position (FIG. 6), passed through a hole 104 of the paper 102, and then deflected such that each prong component lays flat over the top surface of the paper (FIG. 7) in a well known manner. The adapter 100 can then be coupled to the coil 14 in the same manner discussed above by fitting the wings 26 between adjacent turns of the coil such that each coil receiving opening 46 receives a turn therein. Of course, the sequence of operations may be reversed such that the adapter 100 is first coupled to the coil 144, and the paper(s) then coupled to the adapter.
The adapter may include a variety of other quick-attach features for coupling the adapter to a coil beyond the quick-attach wing portions discussed above. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the adapter 100′ may include a plurality of openings 120 located adjacent an inner edge 122 of the strip of material 108′, each opening 120 being shaped and located to receive at least one turn of a coil. The adapter 100′ includes a plurality of slits 124, with each slit extending from the inner edge 122 of the adapter 100′ to one of the openings 120 to enable a turn of a coil to be removably slid into, and received in, the associated opening 120. In this embodiment, each opening 120 is generally circular, and each slit 124 is a cut formed in the strip 108′, although the slits 124 may also be a small strip of material removed from the strip 108′ similar to the throat portion 48 of the wing connector system. The adapter 100′ shown in FIG. 8 also includes a plurality of openings 130 extending through the adapter 100′ for receiving the rings of a binder, such as three-ring binder, therethrough to couple the adapter to the binder. Furthermore, the adapter 100′ may include a pair of prong components 110 a, 110 b that can be splayed in opposite directions to couple a paper 102 to the adapter 100′.
As shown in FIG. 9, the adapter 100′ may be a piece of material 108′ folded over itself to form an upper, or first layer 132, a second layer 134, a third layer 136, and a bottom or fourth layer 138. The second layer 134 and third layer 136 form a V-shape having an opening 140 therebetween. A paper 102 can be received in the opening 140 such that the inner edge of the paper 102 is received in crease 142 and the prong components 110 a and 110 b passed through the holes 104 of a paper 102. The upper 132 and second 134 layers are connected by a rivet 144 having a central opening therein, and the third 136 and bottom 138 layer are connected by a rivet 146. The prong components 110 a, 110 b are coupled to the rivet 146, and extend through the central opening in rivet 144 such that they can be folded over the top layer 132.
In this manner, the adapter provides a mechanism for adding additional sheets to a coil bound notebook. In many prior art coil bound notebooks, once the originally bound papers of the coil bound mechanism are used and/or removed, the binder must discarded. The adapter provides a mechanism for adding additional paper to the coil bound notebook, thereby extending the useful life of a coil bound notebook.
Having described the invention in detail and by reference to the preferred embodiments, it will be apparent that modifications and variations thereof are possible without departing from the scope of the invention.

What a start
The first day of the IHSA volleyball state tournament, in Normal, is over and the overall result is what you'd hope for such an elite level. Five of the day's eight semifinal matches required three sets to produce a winner.
Both of Friday's 1A matches and both 2A matches, as well as one in 4A, went to the fullest limit. That's what schools at this level should expect in order to advance.
One interesting sidenote is that the finalists in 3A and 4A are exactly the same as in 2009 with Cary-Grove and LaGrange Lyons battling in 4A, and Breese Mater Dei and Joliet Catholic the finalists in 3A. In 2A, there is also one championship-match repeater: Chicago Christian.

Despite various rumours doing rounds in tinsel town about a conversation between Megastar Chiranjeevi and Powerstar Pawan Kalyan and the declaration of 2014 poll results, Mega camp sources have revealed that the two scions are yet to meet for a dinner. Check some interesting information about this.
Of course, Chiru and Pawan are two political rivals and the younger sibling is surely the winning horse this time. His campaigning helped TDP-BJP alliance to get more powerful in Seemandhra state. Owing him all the victory, Narendra Modi even invited him for the key NDA Board meeting that will take place today. Coming to Chiru's side, Congress has bitten dust completely and there is no need to explain reasons for that. Are these happenings going to strain the relationship of brothers? No, Never. Chiru clarified that at home Pawan Kalyan is his brother and they speak with each other cordially. Even Pawan stressed that he has immense respect for his brother, and except for political reasons there is nothing against Chiru in Pawan's heart.
But what happened prior to elections and campaigning is that Mega family has taken sides, and surprisingly everyone stood by Chiranjeevi only. To break the ice and reunite the family without getting split on political lines, Chiru is said to be now planning for a 'big dinner' at his palatial residence. He asked Pawan to attend the dinner along with his foreigner wife and kids, say sources. For now the date is not fixed as Mega family wants everyone's availability.

Gretei is a villainess from Hogan's Heroes, appearing in Season Three's "Sticky Wicket Newkirk." She was shown with Newkirk in the beginning of the episode, until he was sent back to Stalag 13 by the Gestapo. Gretel resurfaced with Newkirk when he brought her to the camp through the emergency tunnel, instead of making his escape to prevent being transferred to Stalag 6. Hogan later tells Gretel of an escape plan but is cut off when Schultz enters and recaptures Newkirk. He backs off when he sees Gretel, but at that moment, Gretel reveals herself as a Gestapo agent and heads to Klink's office to report on her findings in the camp, not knowing that Hogan's plan was a phony; figuring that Gretel was a spy. Gretel is later discredited after the main tunnel entrance is blown up, and Carter disguises himself as a German general and mentions Gretel reporting on Hochstetter, who later takes her in for questioning.
Gretel was played by Ulla Stromstedt, who made a previous villainous appearance on Hogan's Heroes, playing Myra in Season Two's "Diamonds in the Rough."

Internal audit plan figures can be used by management in determining whether or not to take certain actions to change the operation of the business. Although auditing itself is relatively well established, internal auditing is far newer. It is a discipline through which employees of a company carry out their own audit.
Internal Auditing and other Audit tools? Check this one(image link below):
Financial statement audit procedures are necessary in both the corporate environment and in government. The most common type of audit is the one which analyzes financial expenses and how they are arrived at. If you are interested in performing financial statement audit operations for a living, you will need to come from an accounting background. This is a profession where formal qualifications are essential, and no-one will be given a chance without them.

PLBI0411_1877-1898_syn.indd PLoS Biology | www.plosbiology.org 1877 Synopses of Research Articles November 2006 | Volume 4 | Issue 11 | e405 The history of life is fi lled with examples of one species diverging into several, even thousands, each with unique traits geared to the demands of its ecological niche. In the textbook case of adaptive radiation, an ancestral fi nch species landed on the Galapagos Islands just a few million years ago, and evolved into 13 new species with specialized beaks adapted to exploiting the various seeds, nuts, insects, and other food sources on the island. Adaptive radiations suggest that species evolution follows the fi rst rule of business: fi nd a niche and fi ll it. But that's not what most models used to detect evolutionary patterns of trait evolution assume. And in a new study, Robert Freckleton and Paul Harvey demonstrate the limitations of that choice. They also introduce a method to minimize those limitations by using a diagnostic tool that can detect evolutionary patterns that deviate from the standard models. The complexity of evolutionary processes and spottiness of the fossil record calls for statistical models— whose accuracy depends on their assumptions—to infer historical patterns of evolution. Traditional approaches to studying the evolution of traits (such as beak shape) typically compare populations, species, or higher taxa to identify adaptations and the corresponding evolutionary processes. With advances in molecular genomic techniques, comparative methods increasingly incorporate phylogenetic analyses, which compare gene or protein sequences to infer evolutionary relationships between taxa or traits. These phylogenetic comparative methods often use a "Brownian motion" model of evolution, which assumes that more closely related species are more similar to each other and generate expected distributions of trait change among the species compared.

I wanted to make cupcakes that are rainbow coloured from the inside. I figured I can make a yellow batter and add different colourings to colour my batter...but is there any particular way to put the batter into the cupcake liners? So that the colours dont mix and after baking i see vibrant colors??
Do I layer the colours in?
I've made these before. They are fun, people love them. First I would use a white cake, not yellow, the colors will look better. Any white cake will do, mix scratch, or doctored mix such as WASC.
I separated the batter into 6 colors, purple, blue green, yellow, orange, and red, in that order. The batter doesn't need much color, they bake up brighter. I put the batter in 6 piping bags and swirl each color into the liners. It's not hard just time consuming and a fair amount of clean up. Happy baking.
Thanks so much!!!!
I have also done this with white cake mix. I used the americolor electric colors. I love how vibrant they are. I just used spoons and dropped one spoonful in at a time until I got the desired height. Have fun with it=)

Did my test last night with probe under husk.
Preparation: Peel husk back, remove as much silk as will come off easily, fold husk back on, soak in water (important), tie ends, place in steamer for 12 - 15 minutes depending on size. Steam temperature was 203°, corn temp under husk at 14 minutes was 197°. Result was as usual, very hot, moist and tender.
Note: Any remaining silk after steaming, can easily be removed by wiping corn with dry towel.

I booked this hotel as part of an online package. The pics shown on that site were NOT the same as what you get upon checking in. The hotel is in need of an overhaul. Carpets are worn through, bathroom floor is yellow from age, musty smell in the room, the internet kicks you off every 6-10 minutes or if you have too many tabs open and use bandwidth - I could go on and on.
I put a mark on the corner of the bottom sheet with a pen to see if they were changing the sheets. Nope! a few days they forgot to leave towels, coffee packs for the in room coffee maker, the TV only gets about 6 channels. If it wasn't such a hassle to get my money back, I would have moved to another hotel. I was traveling on work and stayed here for a few days.
This Days Inn gives the chain a bad name, as ive stayed at a lot of the others. this location needs to have someone from corporate visit and review the site.

The project got mentioned recently in a Free Software Magazine column (The 2008 Google Summer of Code: 21 Projects I'm Excited About), that also got slashdotted.
Anyway, a lot of work has been done, and it is (seemingly!) pretty much usable. So here is a progress report.
Installation and migration issues
Installation. Checkout the latest subversion repositories, and build it. Now in the left panel, right click, and choose New->Source, and choose Google Source. Give your email ID (which can also be non-gmail google IDs) and password. And you're set. You should see your feedlist on the leftpanel. You will observe the the "Read/Unread" status of all your items should be preserved from Google Reader.
A few notes about migration. If you have a Google Source from a previous installation, it will automatically be converted to a synchronized Google Source. So beware if you don't want Liferea to automatically modify your Google Reader data. You might also notice that some of the "Read/Unread" statuses before migrating have changed, this is because the synchronized Google Source gives preference to the "Read/Unread" statuses from Google Reader.
What works
Lets say you have been using the Google Reader online (For clarity, by Google Reader I will be referring to the online Google Reader API and/or interfaces. I will use the term Google Source for the Google functionality within Liferea). Now, on adding the Google Source, the first thing you will notice is that the "Read/Unread" statuses are retrieved from Google.
Liferea will synchronize subscription lists, and "Read/Unread" statuses both to, and from, Google Reader. This is the main functionality. If you are offline when a local change is made, it will propagate the changes to Google Reader later, when you get connected.
Another cool feature that you will notice is the "broadcast-friends" node. You can now read all the posts that are shared by your Google Reader friends from within Liferea. Although, as of right now, this doesn't show the name of the person who shared it.
What does not work, or does not work correctly
Comments do not work. This is an inherent issue with using Google Reader as a source: if you have been using Google Reader, you would have noticed that Google Reader does not show you a list of comments to an item, while Liferea can (for most feeds which support it). Liferea relies on some information in the feed, which the Google Reader API discards. Until Google makes changes to their API, we really can't do much about it.
Labels. Or Folders. All the posts within Google Source in Liferea, will fall in the same folder. Google Reader categorizes feeds by labels, which can be used to produce a hierarchical folder structure. I will definitely be implementing this over the summer.
Stars, and the "Important" flag. Liferea can flag an item as "Important", and Google Reader can mark an item as "starred". Eventually, I would like to synchronize these two.
Sharing. While you can see posts shared by others, you cannot share an item from within Liferea.
Efficient Updating
In my SoC abstract, I proposed that we can use Google Reader to save the user's bandwidth while updating. Here is the idea I had in mind:
Normally a user can have hundreds of feeds in his feedlist. Whenever Liferea does an update, it has to update each one of these, even if usually only one or two of them have changed. This wastes both time and bandwidth. Using Google Reader API, however, it is possible for us to download only the "reading-list" -- the reading list over all subscriptions -- in one HTTP request. In some sense I'm downloading all the changes to all my feeds in one go. I can use this to recover the "Read/Unread" flags: for any item in the reading-list, the item is marked as Unread. Any unread item under the Google Source, which does not appear in the reading-list, is marked as read.
However, as simple and clean as this might sound, this is flawed: say, while you are at office, you receive some new posts in the Google Reader webapp. You then read it, and so those items are marked as read. Now once you are back at home, you do an update on liferea: this new post will not appear in the "reading-list", so Liferea will never come to know that this post ever existed. You might say its not a cause for concern, since you have already read that post -- but maybe you want that post for offline reading.
So ideally, instead of requesting the "reading-list", I would like to request a list of "Changes since so-and-so date." Unfortunately, the Google Reader API has no such feature as far as I, and the pyrfeed Google Reader API page knows. I am keen on getting feedback and suggestions regarding this, since I would love to have this feature myself!

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from I had high hopes for this product and was very disappointed that it didn't really do what it said on the container. Maybe it might remove the moss after a second dose, but I'm not sure if I would use the same brand again.
