A COUNCILLOR has claimed Castle Point Council might as well rip up its green belt policy as more and more planning applications on green lung land are being given the go-ahead.
Canvey Independent Dave Blackwell's comments came as the council's development control committee made a u-turn decision and approved plans submitted by the King John School that had been earmarked for refusal.
The popular school, in Shipwrights Drive, Thundersley, applied to extend its sixth form building by constructing two glass-fronted wings to cope with an increasing number of pupils who want to go to the school.
The plans also propose to demolish the existing caretaker's house, which is vacant and in a poor state of repair, and relocate parking areas that will be lost.
However, planning officers recommended it should be refused claiming it was "inappropriate development" for green belt land.
Mr Blackwell said he would vote against the application "out of principal" but admitted he would be "the odd one out".
He said: "It's a waste of time having a green belt policy to be honest.
"What's the point in having policies if we're constantly overriding them? Bits and pieces of green belt are being eroded away and this council won't be looked upon as protecting green belt much longer because we won't have any left."
Councillors who were in favour of the plans only raised concerns about car parking.
The extension would allow up to 174 additional pupils to attend the school, creating a total attendance of 2,097 and a requirement of 280 car parking spaces.
The scheme aims to provide 158 spaces, which is the current number available for students, but the school is in negotiation with the nearby Hollywood Restaurant about using its 40 spaces in the daytime while restrictions could be placed on sixth formers bringing cars to the school.
When it came to the vote, eight councillors voted for the proposal to go ahead, three were against.
Margaret Wilson, the school's headteacher, spoke at Tuesday night's meeting and said as her school was the only one in the borough with a sixth form it is inundated with 1,000 applications every year.
Mrs Wilson also explained there is an "urgent need" for more accommodation as part of guidelines issued by the Government and said she didn't know what she would have done if the plans had been refused.
She said: "I had to do some research on the key purposes of green belt land and this proposal did not contravene any of those.
"It will really help us to improve our sixth form teaching and I'm totally and utterly delighted with the decision."

Any thoughts on this US Daily Index , by MIT ?? Is there any truth to it... I see that they do not include prices of services which would do some correction upwards , but is that all? I would appreciate any thoughts.
My thought is that this is yet another improvement on identifying symptoms of a problem and will only hurt in addressing the obvious problem itself. The problem is clear: The governments of the WORLD lead by the one in the USA are creating new money and/or credit not backed by savings. THIS IS INFLATION!! Looking at daily/hourly/continuous prices is looking at symptoms of inflation.
But what is really bad is that the effects of inflation are all negative in the long run economy and this looking at symptoms will only lead the people like those in the Fed, Krugman, etc to spout their something for nothing (non)economic concepts.
Did you ask the person if they thought there was any value or validity to the index? I am curious as to why they even brought this up.
Sorry, haven't seen this. Yes, he argued that this Index goes somewhat hand to hand with official numbers, as I was showing shadowstats date...

Our local governments are facing multibillion-dollar deficits that will, unless leaders take tough action, continue growing, consuming an ever larger share of taxpayer dollars.
The problem is the pensions due to public employees, a problem that has grown into an actuarial nightmare threatening to affect basic government services. Our elected officials have tried to fix the problems. But they haven't done enough.
The numbers are so big, they're hard to grasp: The state of Ohio faces a gap of $77 billion between what it owes to its five public pension plans and what it has funded. That's more than the gross domestic product of Panama.
The mounting pension liabilities are putting pressure on municipal budgets that are already strained. These pension gaps will continue to be a threat to taxpayers unless legislators summon the will to make more substantial changes.
Some experts, including the Pew Center on the States, point to Rhode Island's reforms as a possible model. Rhode Island suspended cost-of-living raises for retirees until the system is fully funded (that could be decades); raised the retirement age for all workers to be in line with Social Security's guidelines; and created a hybrid traditional-401(k) style plan for current employees, not just new hires.
Legislators need to work up the political courage to take the next step, rationalizing benefits for current workers, before the pension gap saddles future generations with unsolvable financial problems.

I can't see why having one of these new Vermona MONO Lancet analog synths around can be a bad thing. Be sure to watch until 2:50 to hear the quality of the resonance. I like it.
"The voltage controlled lowpass filter has a slope of 24db per octave. On high resonance settings it starts to self-oscillate and produces a stable sine wave that can be played in a range of about 2 ½ octaves." – vermona.com

Exciting Times for NVSAA!
Introducing Our New Billing Structure
This is a very exciting time for us! We are offering more opportunities for our members than ever in key areas: Education, Legislative, Networking.
We are also creating ways to do business better. This allows us to build upon our foundation, and facilitate future growth.
The Nevada State Apartment Association is pleased to announce a streamlined billing structure for our membership. We are moving to a calendar year membership cycle where all members will pay their dues in January and enjoy membership benefits through December of that year.
The goal is to shift our entire membership to this more efficient billing cycle by January 1, 2017.
As such, it's important to begin the process now. Handling membership in this manner is in line with many other Associations across the country and is design designed to minimize confusion on expiration dates and make the budgeting process easier.
Our goal is to make the transition as easy as possible:
If your membership renewal falls due between September 1, 2015 and December 31, 2015. You will receive an invoice that includes the remaining months of 2015 and all of 2016. Conveniently, your membership will be paid through the end of 2016. The remaining association members expiring in 2016 will receive prorated invoices to finish out next year's membership. This process puts us on track to begin annual billing for the association, as a whole, in 2017.
Thank you for your cooperation as we make these changes! YOU are what makes the NVSAA the premier multi-family housing association in the region. Let's keep going and growing!
If you have questions, you can reach me at 702.862.0165
My best to you,
Shelly A. Cochran
Executive Director
Record-setting tourism and the strongest convention attendance in several years are driving employment growth and creating apartment demand Las Vegas. Job growth is well above the national average, spurring developers to complete projects that were mothballed since the recession. In addition, multifamily permitting is trending more than 60 percent higher as builders rush to keep up with demand for rental space. While more than 1,400 apartments have been completed during the past year, vacancy fell sharply and concession activity nearly halted on well-located properties near employment hubs. The leisure and hospitality sector is providing the biggest job gains in the economy, although more corporations are relocating to the metro due to its position as a travel destination and the lack of a state income tax. The new workers hired by these companies are choosing to rent in prime areas to the southwest of the city, close to shopping centers, freeways and the Strip. Single-family housing costs in these areas are above the metro average, spurring strong rental growth and pushing vacancy down. Tightening operations will lift rents up 3.4 percent this year, more than 100 basis points above inflation.
You can be THE FIRST to know what's happening in the Las Vegas housing market each and every month. FastFacts is the e-newsletter that tells you exactly what's going on in both the new and existing home market in terms of volume, prices, and trends.

ATHENS - The chairman of the search committee looking for a new president for the University of Georgia has narrowed the field down to a dozen.
But state Board of Regents member and search committee Chairman Larry Walker said that more applicants could be added to the list before the final cuts are made.
Walker said the list includes people who've already been presidents, provosts and deans at other schools and all have backgrounds at big public research institutions. He didn't include any names in his announcement.
The committee is set to meet again next month and hopes to provide a short list of candidates to the Regents in January.
Current UGA President Michael Adams has said he will step down at the end of June.

Tijuana Flats
In 1995, Tijuana Flats founder Brian Wheeler opened his first restaurant in Winter Park, Florida, and started plying patrons with zesty, made-to-order Tex-Mex burritos, quesadillas, and nachos flavored with his own line of impressively spicy hot sauce. The restaurant's laid-back, fun-loving atmosphere caught on with customers, and it eventually expanded to more than 100 locations across six different states.
At each location, colorful comic-book style wall art surrounds guests, forming a festive backdrop. Diners can feast on mahi-mahi fish tacos, all-white meat, hormone-free chicken chimichangas, and vegetarian burritos made with beans that don't come out of a can. Everything comes wrapped in their choice of flour or whole-wheat tortillas. Central to the experience is the infamous hot bar which contains the company's own Smack My Ass & Call Me Sally line of sauces, as well as varieties from private-label brands from around the country. Beer, wine, and sangria are on hand to put out any mouth fires.
Tijuana Flats prides itself on its commitment to freshness, with cooks whipping up each meal to order without the aid of trans-fat cooking oil, lard, or replicators.

Manitowoc Ice Machines for Small Spaces: The NEO™ Undercounter Ice Maker
Operating a quality eatery in a small space comes with plenty of challenges… but fitting the proper restaurant equipment in shouldn't have to be one of them. The necessary quality implements like Manitowoc ice machines, decent storage, ranges, and proper refrigeration can be the difference between subpar service and a successful operation.
Though Manitowoc ice machines' new NEO™ Undercounter Ice Maker is small, it packs a big punch of productivity. Sporting a ton of Manitowoc technology, this bad boy fits snugly in the smallest of places, making easy for you to find a home for it in your restaurant. And once you do? Fresh ice every day, all the time, at a moment's notice. The NEO™ Undercounter Ice Maker has a compact design, and lots of small features that put it above the rest. The NEO™ Undercounter Ice Maker is both easy to clean and convenient to use, since it has…
• Rounded corners of components make cleaning these Manitowoc ice machines much easier and more thorough.
• An ergonomically-designed ice scoop that can be attached to the Manitowoc ice machine's left or right side—whichever is most efficient for your restaurant's layout.
• A removable bin.
• An angled door for easy access and visibility.
• Relocated key components, now outside the food-zone for convenient servicing.
• Fingerprint-resistant external panels.
And because of its small design, it can fit in an unused corner or a low countertop, making the most of the space you've got.
If undercounter Manitowoc ice machines aren't quite your style, opt for head-only dispensers, countertop ice makers, or dispensers. Check out ShortOrder's ice machines for all kinds of restaurants.

Corn futures slipped modestly Monday night. The general lack of grain and soy market movement can probably be attributed to the largely unchanged nature of weather market forecasts posted in the early morning hours. That is, Argentina and Southern Brazil seem likely to remain relatively dry this week, with rains predicted for early next probably proving rather small. Meanwhile, poor exports are weighing upon the domestic corn market. March corn slid 2.25 cents to $7.32/bushel in early Tuesday trading, while December dipped 1.0 cent to $5.9275.
Soybeans posted a modest advance in overnight trading. Minimally changed forecasts for dryness this week and light rainfall next week over the crop growing regions of Argentina and Southern Brazil probably limited the market reaction. Traders may also be thinking about their positions ahead of the Friday morning USDA Crop Production and Supply/Demand reports. March soybeans edged 0.75 cents higher to $14.895 in early trading, while March soyoil slumped 0.08 cents to 53.03 cents/pound and March meal rose $1.7 to $436.0/ton.
Wheat futures were mixed to lower early Tuesday morning. Weather forecasts for the winter wheat growing areas of the Southern Plains apparently limited fluctuations in the wheat pit in the overnight hours. We have to wonder if the lack of news will render the wheat markets vulnerable to further losses in the wake of the technical breakdown suffered over the weekend. March CBOT wheat futures inched 1.75 cents lower, to $7.6125/bushel, in overnight action; March KCBT wheat dropped 2.25 cents to $8.1475, while March MGE futures slipped 0.75 cents to $8.4625.
Cattle futures rallied in Monday night trading. The bounce was rather surprising in the wake of the intraday reversal seen Monday, but we suspect trader expect the cash market rise posted last week to continue during the days just ahead. News that only 17 loads were posted for delivery against the expiring February contract may also have encouraged bulls. Weak wholesale prices remain an obstacle to sustained advances. April cattle rose 0.42 cents to 132.70 cents/pound in pre-dawn trading, while August gained 0.42 cents to 129.32. March feeder cattle surged 0.77 cents to 149.65 cents/pound at the same time, while August yearlings had climbed 0.40 cents to 160.95
Hog futures moved lower again in the early morning hours. We suspect their Monday drop marked a response to the cash weakness being reported at that time. However, traders were probably hoping for seasonal wholesale strength, which might have mitigated or reversed the effects of the cash slippage. Instead, pork cutout fell over 1.0 cent Monday afternoon, with a 5.0-cent plunge in belly values dragging carcass values downward. That may bode rather ill for the short-term outlook. April hogs dipped 0.55 cents to 87.80 cents/pound in Monday night activity, while June fell 0.40 cents to 96.70.
Cotton futures continued their late slump Tuesday morning. Traders reportedly cited growing exchange-registered stocks and U.S. dollar strength for the drop. We still think the drop was largely technical in nature, especially after the nearby March contract failed to break out above the 84.00-cent level late last week. We harbor suspicions the March future could quickly test the 80-cent level. March cotton declined 0.44 cents to 81.30 cents/pound in early Tuesday action, while the new crop December contract skidded 0.19 cents to 81.30.

It will be the first event held at Ford Field since a recent renovation that updated — among other elements — the field's backstop, dugouts and bleachers.
The hybrid ribbon-cutting ceremony and opening day celebration will offer attractions ranging from a speech by former Major Leaguer Eric Byrnes to a home run derby competition, open to any child registered in the league.
The town of Portola Valley invites current and former Little League players and their families to grab their bats and helmets, and to join those who helped fund the Ford Field renovation in breaking in the field's new sod on Saturday.
Each attendee is entitled to receive a commemorative Ford Field pin and some peanuts and Cracker Jack.
Ford Field is located at 3329 Alpine Road in Portola Valley; the festivities will begin at 9 a.m.

ALLEVIATING the suffering of patients is the consultants' utmost priority at Prospect Hospice as is their strong and immediate focus on life as opposed to the inevitable death of each of their charges.
The Wroughton charity counts on four doctors, two consultants, two experienced GPs with a special interest in palliative care and a pair of junior doctors – who join the team for four month stretches as part of their training – at any one time.
The small team tackles a monumental task caring for hundreds of patients each year in the hospice's in-patient unit, out in the community and at the Great Western Hospital, where they assist staff and share their expertise on the complexities of palliative medicine.
Contrary to popular belief, their role and health mission revolves, like any other medical practitioners, around 'living' and ensuring, through symptom and pain management that patients live as long, independently and happily as they possibly can.
"All our patients have advanced or progressive conditions but they may be some way from that dying phase and a big element of what we do is managing symptoms," said Dr Kate Tredgett, a specialist in palliative medicine.
"When people talk about palliative care they think it's an environment with no hope.
"But it is very much about living as well as possible as long as possible and it is as much about living as it is about dying. Although we acknowledge that it will be the final outcome.
"For some patients it is about living well with the condition. About half of patients come in because they are dying but the other half come in because there is something active we can do to improve things for them."
Far from isolated entities, consultants are an integral part of the wider healthcare system playing a crucial role in educating and assisting hospital staff, for example.
Kate added: "We proactively work alongside people at the hospital because our patients will often be receiving treatment like chemotherapy alongside being seen by us. We enable them to deliver care, educate them, and provide advice.
"And we see patients wherever they are and wherever they need support. We also see them at home. We are this extra tier of expertise to the clinical nurse specialists."
A large part of palliative care involves providing psychological, social and spiritual support alongside medical expertise. This holistic approach means the focus is on the patient as a person and not simply a set of symptoms. By extension carers and family members also build a strong bond with consultants and themselves and too receive emotional assistance from the team.
Prospect Hospice doctors, left to right, Dr Nicola Stephens,
Dr Kate Tredgett and Dr Helen Eckley
Dr Helen Eckley, a GP specialising in palliative care, works solely on the in-patient unit.
She said: "We are fortunate in that we are able to spend quite a bit of time with each patient and GPs would not be able to do that. It means that we can support them much more psychologically. A lot of issues come up about life after death. People also look back on the meaningfulness of their lives and the things they have achieved or that they regret and we are there to support them.
"It's a really important relationship with the patient and the family that we develop right when the patient first comes in. A lot of what we do is trying to support the family just like we are trying to support the patient in how they are managing what is happening.
Kate added: "Palliative care values people as a whole, it's about the whole person not just their physical illness. It's about the spiritual, social, physical and psychological and if one of these is out of kilter patients can experience distress."

I thought the instructor did an amazing job in writing the lessons. They were up-beat, easy to understand and they kept my interest throughout the entire lesson. I would definitely take another course with this instructor in the future.
Great course! Instructor very knowledgeable on the subject.
I consider this an excellent resource to get familiar with all the concepts and techniques of the Six Sigma Body of Knowledge. The lessons are very clear and well presented. Absolutely great!
I enjoyed my first online learning experience. I thought it was very well organized. Thanks!
This course was very informative. I kept all of my lessons in paper and electronic formats. They will be of great help in the future as I apply the tools that I learned. I really enjoyed taking these two courses. I thought the professors writing style and examples were excellent. Every time I read and think more about this material I learn something new - continuous improvement/learning. I need to keep applying these tools. Like they say "Use it or lose it". Thanks so much for everything!
I just wanted you to know that this course has been very valuable. I just finished a graduate statistics course. Like most students, statistics is greek to me. This lesson has explained things in a simpler fashion than I had before. I thinks it's starting to sink in.
I learned a lot from this course, the terminology and ideas were presented in an effective manner.
It was a good way to be introduced to Six Sigma. I would recommend this course to others. Thank you.
Tony has an excellent writing style. His Web references are very helpful and he does actively participate in the discussion area. This course is a great value for the money!
I have worked with TQM Process Improvement tools in the past. This was my first Six Sigma course which was a great way to refresh my knowledge of some tools and also learn a few new tools/techniques. Great Course!

Here's a story from our CFCA community that made our day!
Linda Baker in California started sponsoring in May 2010 during a CFCA weekend presentation. Her daughter, Celeste, selected Deepika from India as the family's sponsored friend.
Deepika was the same age as Celeste, so it was only natural that Linda's two older children, Celeste, 9, and Nigel, 6, would identify with her, Linda said.
Linda said sponsorship is a great way to introduce her children to people from another culture, especially those who are living in poverty.
"Deepika sends us totally sweet letters," Linda said. "She's an excellent writer in English. It's incredible. She's writing us letters that are pages long and itís her second language!"
Celeste especially was intrigued by the different clothes Deepika wore. Both Deepika and Celeste like art, and Deepika draws beautiful pictures on her letters to the family in California.
Although the children have never met Deepika in person, she's like another member of the family. They talk about her a lot, Linda said.
Recently Linda introduced an allowance for Celeste and Nigel. Each child receives $3 a week ñ a dollar for savings, a dollar for a charity of their choice, and another dollar for spending.
The children asked Linda how they should spend their money for charity, and Linda said they could donate it to anybody they chose.
"I told them I was going to send my money to Deepika," Linda said. "And they said, 'We want to do that, too!'"
So the children saved a dollar a week for 17 weeks. Together they saved $32, and Linda provided the rest for a $100 contribution to CFCA's family need fund.
"I'm very blessed, and the only way I can justify it is to pay it forward," Linda said. "We are so fortunate that I just want to be able to help other people so they can have an easier life."
For our sponsors who have children, what are some ways you're teaching your children to pay it forward? Feel free to share in the comments below.

Expert Advice
HOW-TO: Jennifer Lawrence's Textured "Chop"
Try a textured bob on your clients with short hair, as seen on actress Jennifer Lawrence. Celebrity stylist Dwayne Ross, owner of Verve Lounge Hair Salon in Beverly Hills, says that prepping the hair before you style or color the hair is a crucial step, here he recommends Malibu C products.
STEP 1: On clean, wet hair apply Malibu C's Malibu Blondes Wellness Treatment for five minutes. This 100 percent vegan treatment intensifies color brilliance for bleached, highlighted and natural blondes alike.
STEP 2: Wash out and condition.
STEP 3: Next, apply Malibu C's Leave-in Mist Conditioner and blow dry. This 100 percent vegan leave-in detangler is loaded with antioxidant vitamins and plant-based proteins that will fight against damage from roots to ends.
STEP 4: To style, dry bangs and dry head with medium to large round brush. On top of head from behind the bangs to the crown area place 3 to 4 medium Velcro rollers (on dry hair) and spray with a working hairspray.
STEP 5: Curl sides and back away from face with medium curling iron. (Be sure to hold curling iron vertically or perpendicular to the floor). Let hair cool for 10 minutes.
STEP 6: With your fingers and a super light clear styling pomade, run your fingers through the curls lightly and separate them. Remove Velcro rollers and bend just the ends of the hair, (that was in rollers), with a medium hot iron in the direction you would like them to be placed. Set look with a finishing spray.

3 Tips To Share With Your Client
Jessica Tiddes of Solo Salon in Chicago loves to share ideas with her clients. "I want them to have the knowledge on how to keep their hair looking great between salon visits," she says. "The most common questions are always about blow drying and braiding, so these three have been the most popular with my clients." Here Tiddes shares those tips with other salon professionals:
1. Teach your client to remove the majority of the moisture before working with her round brush. "Most of my clients have challenges with round brushing because their arms get tired. Unfortunately they start with very wet hair. If the hair is 80% dry before round brushing, she will ge the same effect but with less work."
2. Teach your client to round brush from the TOP working down. "After blowdrying the first section teach her to allow it to cool in an overdirected position. This way she can get added volume while she works on the sections below."
3. Teach your client how to create a faux French Braid. "If your client has challenges creating a French Braid on herself, teach her to create an off scalp three strand braid and then pin the braid to the scalp. This gives the illusion of an on scalp braid. Many of my clients do this on a regular basis."

Melting icecaps, changing weather patterns and poor air quality have all been attributed to greenhouse gases. Whether you believe in global warming or not, it is evident consumers are looking for food that has been raised in a conscientious manner.
Joe Harrison, animal scientist and extension specialist at Washington State University, agrees with that sentiment saying, "Increasingly, it seems like consumers are interested in buying products that are produced in an environmentally friendly way and they describe that in many different ways."
Product labels for organic, natural, grass-fed, free-range, humanely handled and a myriad of other marketing strategies have popped up in supermarkets across the country. Some of these branded programs deal directly with certain environmental issues, but they don't do much to address greenhouses gases.
Harrison thinks there is a potential for dairy products to be marketed in this manner.
"Being able to say that your product has this kind of carbon footprint seems to be an opportunity on the marketing side and to let the general public, which is about 98 percent of us, know that the dairy industry tries to follow environmentally friendly practices which are going to keep their carbon footprint as small as possible," Harrison adds.
Dairy farmer Doug Young believes the prospects are bright for producers who manage their environmental impact, too.
"This is a great opportunity for farmers to build a brand, so more of the value from retail comes back to the farms," says Young, a managing member of Spruce Haven Farms in Union Springs, N.Y.
Model managers
According to the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) greenhouse gas emissions data, agriculture is responsible for 14 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, and in the United States agriculture accounts for 8 percent.
Managing greenhouse gases may seem a bit unnerving for producers; however, there are programs available at no cost on the Internet that can help.
At Spruce Haven Farms, Young is looking at utilizing computer-based greenhouse modeling technology. He is interested in using Farm Smart, a program offered by the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy.
He says it is a process-based model similar to what the EPA has recommended the industry adopt.
"The model allows producers to simulate farms in any location, with any characteristics," explains Young. "It accurately assesses the carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur and water footprint per unit of production."
Utilizing these types of technologies will help producers deal with feed efficiency issues in their herds.
Young says some of those questions that can be addressed include, "What comes in, what goes out, what is being lost, and how can we better recapture the lost resources to help improve profit and reduce environmental footprint."
The USDA's Agriculture Research Service also has multiple computer models available to download from its web site. Two of the free programs are the Integrated Farm Systems Model (IFSM) and Dairy Gas Emissions Model (DairyGEM).
Harrison has used DairyGEM to help teach undergraduate students about the type of management changes that can be done to reduce emissions on dairy farms.
IFSM is the more comprehensive of the two models, and is a whole-farm simulation that analyzes dairy, beef and crop production.
Program creation
Al Rotz, an engineer with USDA-ARS at Pennsylvania State University, created the two computer programs that help producers in determining their environmental impact.
"In terms of IFSM, it is pretty detailed information on the crops grown and some of the parameters for those crops," says Rotz.
The model looks at the impacts of harvesting, crop storage, feed utilization and fertilizer application in fields, such as nitrogen.
"Once you set those parameters up, you go through the simulation and then it would kick out lots of data," says Rotz. "Primarily, you're getting the maximum daily, average daily and total annual emissions of the various gases."
Gases evaluated in the program include greenhouse gas like methane, nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide. Ammonia and hydrogen sulfide levels are also considered. Those gases can then be calculated to look at the environmental footprint of the production cycle.
"You would get the carbon footprint or the total greenhouse gas emissions per unit of milk produced per dairy operation. The energy footprint is the total fossil fuel based energy that goes into producing the milk, expressed as per unit of milk. We give a reactive nitrogen footprint which is a total reactive nitrogen lost to the environment per unit of milk produced. And we give a water footprint which is total water use in producing each unit of milk," says Rotz.
IFSM also offers producers an economic analysis of their farms, allowing them to measure cost and income from the operation while calculating the overall profitability.
He adds that major performance statistics can be calculated with IFSM, like how much feed is produced, used and sold, along with how much milk is produced.
DairyGEM is similar to IFSM, but it is a more simplified version specific to dairy production.
"In DairyGEM, there are a few more emission factors that we're not simulating all the processes in as much detail as with IFSM. DairyGEM really is just the animal- and the manure-handling components of IFSM," says Rotz.
Those components were pulled out of IFSM and into their own user interface through DairyGEM.
He says it has made DairyGEM a more user-oriented tool that is easier to operate compared to IFSM.
The emissions calculations have also been simplified, and it offers more graphical output.
"We pretty much designed it so that it would be more usable to a broader audience, including producers," he relates.
Emissions on the front burner
Rotz thinks it would be beneficial for producers to utilize IFSM because of all the information that can be obtained, but the amount of time spent inputting data is a setback.
"From that standpoint, there are not that many producers who are using it. If producers took the time to really program their operation and run it, they'd learn a lot about what is impacting their farm performances as well as the economics of the farm and the environmental impact," says Rotz.
Right now, both IFSM and DairyGEM are not being widely used. In fact, they are primarily being used at the university level for research studies related to environmental issues.
While IFSM requires a large time investment, DairyGEM provides the more concise version to help reduce that investment.
"I think it's pretty understandable. Producers are very busy people. Unless something has a direct benefit to them, it's just one of those things that go on the back burner. It might be nice, but who has the time to do it? I think that's kind of where it is on the environmental issue. I think there are a lot of producers who are environmentally conscious; they want to do the right thing, and they're really trying to do their best. But they're so busy with everything that it's not something that is necessarily on the front burner," says Rotz.
Yet, with continued pressure from an environmentally concerned consumer base, the time for looking at these types of models is approaching.
"Farmers have the tools to make really good long-term decisions for how to structure their farm for the future," relates Young.

Abundance of day trippers expected at Jersey Shore this summer
This summer at the Jersey Shore, day trippers might end up outnumbering vacationers.
Despite all the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy, state Sen. Chris Connors, R-Ocean, is optimistic about the tourism season at the Shore.
Fewer people may be making extended visits because many rental units damaged by the storm might not be repaired by summer, said Connors who represents Long Beach Island.
"Certainly those people that are in the business of providing hotel motel accommodations and rental units might see an effect on their bottom line, but I believe most of the businesses will do pretty well," he said Wednesday.
If the weather cooperates, Connors expects most of the businesses at the Shore will be up and running by Memorial Day.
Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno also is hopeful about the summer season.
"We're going to be as open as humanly possible as quickly as possible all up and down the Shore area," she said. "So we're hopeful that the businesses that are open now are as busy as ever."
Connors says all the debris Sandy deposited in Barnegat Bay could cause problems for recreational boating, but he expects commercial fishing boats will be able to head out on the ocean without difficulty.

Fendi Spring 2013 | Pictures
Fendi Spring 2013
After one look at the Fendi Spring 2013 lineup, we had a pretty good idea of what Karl Lagerfeld had on his mind when designing it. An eye for beautiful shoes (can we have a pair of each?), a strong penchant for sportswear, a bright colorblocking palette, a dash of sparkle, and perhaps, a thing for geometric shapes. And who can find fault with a collection that so seamlessly fuses an athletic sensibility with the brand's luxurious fur outerwear? At its core, Fendi stuck to a geo-printed design M.O. (with mink fur thrown into the mix), and it was evident in everything from the structural cuts to the architecturally-perfect peep-toe sandals. In case you were wondering what bag you might be seeing on the arm of every It girl, look out for the quirky Rubik's Cube-esque cube bag, complete with hand strap and zippered siding. Get our trend breakdown below, then see Fendi's Spring '13 collection, in full, when you click on.
- Trends: Fur, colorblocking, an athletic sensibility, geometric prints, collars, and strong boxy silhouettes.
- Colors: White, orange, blue, nude, ecru, peach, teal, and yellow.
- Key Piece: The oversize blue honeycomb sweater — oh the layering possibilities!
- Accessories: A Rubik's Cube-inspired cube bag with zipper details, slick double-button belts, geo-shaped sunglasses, striped cuffs, and peep-toe sandals.
- Who Should Wear It: Loyal wearers of Fendi will flock to this Spring collection, so we expect to see starlets like Emma Stone, Jessica Biel, and Miranda Kerr decked out in the sportier dresses and updated bag styles.

Valley Cemetery
166 Pine Street
Hillsborough County
New Hampshire USA
Valley Cemetery:
First Name
Last Name
Cemetery notes and/or description:
Bounded by Willow, Valley, Pine and Auburn Streets, the Cemetery occupies 20 acres one block southeast of the Verizon Wireless Arena. Though there are no available lots in the Valley, occasional burials still take place there, the most recent being in 2006.
From Route 293 North take Exit 5 onto Granite Street. Cross the Granite Street Bridge, and follow Granite Street straight until you reach the Verizon Wireless Arena. Turn right onto Elm Street, then turn left at the second traffic light onto Valley Street. Follow Valley, turning left at the second traffic light onto Pine Street. The main gate is on Pine Street.
City records indicate that the Valley Cemetery land was donated to the City by Amoskeag Manufacturing Corporation in 1841. Through the Valley ran Cemetery Brook (known then as Mile Brook).
The receiving tomb was built in 1888, constructed into the hill north of the brook.
In 1907, the gates at Auburn and Chestnut Streets were donated by Mrs Hannah A. Currier to honor her husband, the late Governor of New Hampshire, Moody Currier. The pedestrian gate, which was closed for many years, has been reopened.
The Gothic chapel was completed in 1932, replacing a wooden chapel that stood at the same site.
Deceased Manchester Mayors buried in "The Valley": Jacob F. James, Warren L. Lane, Frederick Smyth (the only Manchester Mayor to ever be elected governor of NH), Alonzo Smith, David A. Bunton, Darwin J. Daniels, Joseph B. Clark, David B. Varney and William C. Clarke.
In 2002, the City of Manchester, in conjunction with a volunteer group, The Friends of Valley Cemetery (www.valley-cemetery.com), began a Master Plan of the Valley. Funding included city cash and private donations. The objective of the Master Plan is to develop strategies to restore, enhance, and preserve the natural beauty of this center city cemetery. During the summer of 2003, the Currier Gate, at the south end of Chestnut Street, was removed for restoration.

John Higgins joined Ding Junhui on the Crucible casualty list as the four-time world champion was bundled out in Sheffield by his fellow Scot Alan McManus.
A second successive first-round loss at the Dafabet World Championship for Higgins came on the back of a misfiring performance, as he lost 10-7 to hand McManus, whose tartan trousers caught the eye, a shot at Ken Doherty in the last 16.
World number two Ding was edged out in a final-frame decider late on Monday night by little-known qualifier Michael Wasley, and now Higgins follows China's great hope out of the tournament, another big name gone.
McManus said he "just fell over the line", but it was a victory the 1994 Masters champion toiled for and carries him into the second round for the first time since 2005.
Higgins had taken the final two frames of their opening session on Monday to slow the charge of McManus, cutting his arrears to 6-3 overnight, but any momentum he might have felt failed to influence his performance on the resumption.
A fluked red gave Higgins the impetus to stop the early-morning rot and get back to 8-4, and after losing the next to go one frame away from defeat he belatedly found some vintage form, with the 38-year-old making 111, 67 and 94 in closing the gap to 9-7.
McManus, 43, trailed in the next frame too, but Higgins missed the blue when he looked like going just one frame behind and his good friend seized the unexpected match-winning chance.
McManus said on BBC Two: "It was a bit of a tense finish. It's never easy to put John away.
"Although he probably never played as well as he would have liked in most of the match, he came on strong towards the end and I kind of just fell over the line so I feel very fortunate.
"Now I play my fellow old-stager, Ken, and I'm really look forward to it. I'm sure Ken will be looking forward to it as much as I am."
Higgins had to concede his days as a regular title contender may be behind him.
He said: "It's been a bad season but I'm a lot happier compared to last year. I think I'm playing better - that's a crumb of comfort I can take.
"I feel as if there's something there that I can work on. There's been times when I've been sat here desolate, but I still think there's some decent snooker left in me.
"I'm not one of the top players that's challenging for events, I'm possibly a journeyman top 16 player now. The journeymen can have their day sometimes."
Meanwhile, Martin Gould fell 6-3 behind against Hong Kong's Marco Fu, who at one stage had a 147 maximum break chance but after 11 reds and blacks missed a treacherously difficult treble to stall on 88.


text: Table Talk: A twist of lemongrass By Julie Robinson October 16, 2012 Story Share Lawrence Pierce Thai Chicken Noodle Soup with Lemongrass blends the soothing flavors of lemongrass and coconut milk with the bite of chilies. Chicken, bok choy, carrots and mushrooms give body to the flavorful broth. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Last May, I had a chance to leisurely explore a well-stocked nursery. The nursery had a selection of less common plants -- not just your garden-variety impatiens and petunias.The herb section was particularly intriguing. I picked up a little pot of lemongrass and a curry plant, thinking it would be fun to try them out in Asian, and especially Thai, recipes. They both grew robustly in their pots through the summer. Very robustly. I'm glad I didn't plant them in the ground because lemongrass, it turns out, can be invasive.Every time I watered the curry plant with its tiny gray needle-shaped leaves, its distinctive aroma wafted up, causing my mouth to water in anticipation of curry dishes. As I looked for recipes using fresh curry, I was disconcerted to see the leaves pictured were both green and larger. It turns out that my curry plant is named for its aroma and appearance and is not a culinary herb. The plant identification tag probably gave that information, had I bothered to read it before transplanting it.Also, it turns out that the green curry leaves don't really have a curry taste. They add a delicate lemony flavor to dishes instead. Curry powder is ground from a variety of toasted spices such as cumin, turmeric, coriander, mustard, ginger, garlic, chilies, cloves and salt.The lemongrass plant offered better culinary options. Standing about 3-feet tall, the unprepossessing plant resembles a stand of, well, grass. Most of the lemon flavor is concentrated in the bottom 5 inches of the stock.If you use lemongrass, which is available in the fresh herb section of some grocery stores, in recipes, cut lemongrass at the base and trim off the top leaves, leaving about 4 inches of the stalk. If you're not cutting it fresh, you'll need to trim the top and base of the stalks because they are likely to have dried out slightly. To use in teas, broths and soups, crush the stalks with the side of a knife to release aromatic oils, then cut into 1-inch pieces and add to recipe. Remove the pieces before eating, as they tend to be woody.For use in marinades, stir-fries, salads, spice rubs and curry pastes, trim the top and base of the stalks, then peel off any dry or tough outer layers. Finely chop or mince and brown with other aromatics in the recipe for the strongest flavor.I decided to use the first of my lemongrass in Thai Chicken Noodle Soup with Lemongrass. The delicate combination of lemongrass and coconut milk married well with chicken. It was a soothing dish on a cold day.Reach Julie Robinson at email@example.com or 304-348-1230.Thai Chicken Noodle Soup with LemongrassServes 2 to 3 6 ounces egg noodles6 cups chicken stock1 to 2 stalks fresh lemongrass, minced, OR 4 tablespoons lemongrass paste1 pound bone-in chicken breast or thigh 3 cloves garlic, minced1 thumb-sized piece ginger, shredded1 red or green hot chili, sliced1 large carrot, julienned1 tablespoon oyster sauce1/2 tablespoon brown sugar 2 tablespoons fish sauce2 to 3 cups baby bok choy chopped1 tablespoon fresh lime juice1/2 cup coconut milk1/3 cup fresh cilantroOptional extra vegetables: sliced mushrooms and/or broccoli segmentsPREPARE noodles according to instructions on package.

How Do We Get Managers to Loosen Control Over Employees?
Dear Stifled:
Your bottom-line conclusion is correct: People will leave if management won't let them apply their talents. Even in the current job market, workers are willing to move on if they don't feel appreciated. The Bureau of Labor Statistics says that more than 1 million workers voluntarily left jobs in October 2011, the highest number in more than a decade.
Instill a culture that places high priority on employee innovation and responsibility. Start by training your managers to encourage innovative thinking. E-learning provides a cost-effective means to deliver training. Make sure your training materials discuss how to:
- Create a work setting that permits and encourages team members to make decisions.
- Provide forums that invite new, innovative ideas for changing work processes and other strategic initiatives.
- Identify employees who will benefit more from macromanaging versus micromanaging, with techniques to maximize their growth and contributions.
- Recognize team members who provide independent contributions, in ways that encourage others to do the same.
Understand the role that an innovative culture plays in retention. Have managers apply these skills to build loyal and committed employees who stay around longer and perform better. Remember, employees are more motivated by job achievements than by increased pay, benefits or programs such as "employee appreciation week." Put your employees in position to leave their jobs each day feeling a sense of accomplishment. This requires providing the right tools, coaching and feedback, and giving them the freedom to act on their own.

|I just did this in one pitch and it was a blast.
By Christian "crisco" Burrell
From: PG, Utah
Jul 3, 2008
rating: 5.11b 6c 23 VIII- 23 E3 5c
This was the climb that Greg Chin took the legendary whipper on in 2006. I had just led it and left the draws up for other people to do. Greg had never onsited a 5.11 before and as I feel this route to be pretty soft for the grade I recommended it to him as a first onsite chance. I began to climb the 5.7 into the new roof finish just to the right as Greg started up. He had asked one of the guys who had come up with us to belay (of whom we knew from the Quarry).
He started to crank through the roof and reached the part where it moves left. As those of you who have done this route know the left moves can be a bit tricky if you are getting pumped already. It was at this point that Greg fell.
As he was only about 3 feet above the last bolt it should've been a very routine sport fall. But as I moved up my climb, I heard a painiced scream from Greg and turned around to see him sailing through the air. In a split second we looked at the belayer and the problem became obvious.
The individual whom Greg asked to belay him, while having belayed many times top ropes (including several times earlier that same day) had aparently never lead belayed. This fact was not been disclosed by him upon Gregs invitation. He was also belaying with a BD ATC, which in the hands of an experienced belayer is a perfectly good device, however the belayer made a critical error. At the moment of the fall he failed to break correctly with his break hand. Instead he kept both hands level with one another above the belay device. This caused minimal friction on the lead line that went shoting very quickly through his hands.
To his credit, he did attempt with all his might to slow Gregs fall by griping the rope as tightly as possible. He screamed as smoke actually came from his hands that were being ruthlessly burned in the attempt to arrest Gregs fall(which did in fact slow Greg down from death speeds). Eric Allen who was belaying me just to the right of this very quickly jumped over and grabben the rope and brought it down into a proper break position. This action happened just as Greg landed in a bush at the base of the climb, but a split second before he actualy hit thereby he actually landed in a manner that he was able to basically walk away (though scared out of his wits).
The belayer had to be rushed to the hospital, with severe rope burns that completly burned down to the bone in his palms. The belayer does deserve credit for doing whatever it took to slow Greg down despite the intense pain.
Greg has still not fully returned to climbing as much or as hard as he used to (admits the insident is still in his mind) and the belayer has never done more than bouldering since.
Moral? Know who you are climbing with, and if you are unaware of techniques or unsure of your abilities to do certain tasks, don't be to proud to admit it. There were quite a few very qualified lead belayers on the scene at the moment and is it possible that the belayer in question didn't want to feel that he didn't fit in.
You never learn how to do something like this without having someone teach you at some point. Good communication can save your life. I though this story might make some of you reevaluate your system and be of some worth.

|ugh. i was thinking about attempting that route on wed. maybe i'll tell my girlfriend to wear gloves. always make it a point to distinguish lead and top rope belaying, especially if it's someone you met in a (gag) gym.

|Finally got on this today which is appropriate because the picture here is me on the first part in my first days of leading. I did it as my first route of the day even though this is my onsight grade when warmed up. the first part serving as a good warm up and the position and exposure being some of the best iv'e found in the canyon solidify its classic status.

|+1 do this in one pitch. Longer draws on the first anchors and the first couple bolts after would help a little with the drag but it's still pretty minimal, even with short draws.

Esher boss Ollie Smith may have been frustrated by a whistle happy referee on Saturday, but he was more than happy with another pre-season triumph.
The Molesey Road men beat French Federale One side Lille 24-13 at the weekend to make it two friendly wins from two games as Esher prepare for life in National Division One this term.
Prop Cameron Zeiss, winger Spencer Sutherland and full back Andy Wright all crossed the whitewash in a bad tempered affair that saw Lille's Giorgi Tskitishvili shown a red card.
"I'm happy with the win in what was a scrappy game and particularly pleased with the attitude of the players," said Esher head coach Smith.
"Chris Elder did fantastically well considering he has not played at 10 before and Macfarlane carried well – as did Sutherland.
"Both teams battled to play a free-flowing, pre-season type game, but the referee seemed very keen to blow his whistle."

We may not know your specific name, but we can describe you by your warm smile, your heart of gold and your shining angel wings.
The saying goes that it takes a village to raise a child and our community proved this once again.
Because of your generosity, the children from The Union's Giving Tree had a little brighter Christmas this year and now know that there is a special angel out there somewhere that truly cares about them.
Thank you so much for helping us help them.

Great climbing and the 3rd pitch lieback is a classic not to be missed.
The name El Camino Real, which translates loosely to the King's Road, refers to the 600 mile road which linked 21 missions from San Diego to Sonoma County.

|One of the cleanest lines I have ever done anywhere(lieback pitch). I highly recommend it. Got confused by the runout beta though, kept looking for the crack to close off when I should have been more focused on my climbing. Save a selection of nuts and small cams (say to ~.5 Camalot) for the top half of the pitch and make your own judgement about protection. It gets steep toward the top so placing gear is more difficult but the crack changes shape enough to take a variety of small gear almost anywhere. I never felt run out but I did feel pumped out.

|On my absolutely worst day of climbing I took four 10~15 foot falls on my rope at the P3 crux!
By tallmark515
From: San Francisco
Sep 14, 2008
I accidentally linked P1 & P2, not much of a problem if you don't mind a bit of rope drag during the traverse (5.9?) at the top of P2. Not much pro for the bouldery start, but there is a spot for a margional gear placement at the first rest stance. Also worth noting that above the first bolt on P1 there is a bit of a run out, be a confident .9/.10- slab climber. (mental crux)
I didn't struggle much on P3, move fast and don't fidget with gear. The crux at the top is only a few moves and although the crack thins in spots, there are still plenty of spots to get purchase for the lieback.
We finished on Jenson's Jaunt (5.easy/boring climbing) because there was a line for Traitor Horn. Finish up on the Traitor Horn for one of the best climbing experiences in Tahquitz.

Did this route last thursday. Linked pitch 1 and 2. I didn't place any gear on pitch 1 until I was up the initial slab and around the left side above, otherwise there will be rope drag as the route goes up right and then way left to the jungle.
The crux pitch 3 takes all sorts of pro to 1" or so. You know when you get to the crux at the top. Place gear before the crux and then don't bother with anymore till you do one more move to top out of the crack. I took a #3 camalot and placed it in the wider crack above the lie-back - worked prfect.
We rapped straight back down w/ a 60M. To the jungle and then the bottom.
I recommend doing the the 5.11 just to right - This was a short and fun route w/ a hairy step across to get onto the slab.

P3 is DOPE. Really no hard moves, but the pump can catch up to you. Charge it and SEND! Jugs @ the top of the pitch.
Cinch a nut on the 3rd bolt of P3 if the hanger is still MIA and you want that pro (I did). Bomber-esque.

The third bolt on P2 is still missing a hangar. I cinched 2 nuts on it - the outer one slung with more slack since it's just helping hold the first nut in place. You might get an offset alien to hold but very dubious.
If you rap from the jungle, you then downclimb the easy bottom of Fingertip traverse.

|Did this climb on Saturday, classic route. 3rd bolt on pitch two still missing hanger, can cinch a nut to it to clip onto for protection or can be a pretty big fall/swing. Classic pitch 3 also ends at 3 bolts and route can be rappeled back to the Jungle then rap back close to the ground with some 3rd class scrambling to get to base of route to avoid Friction Descent.

My partner and I replaced the hanger on the 2nd pitch yesterday. There are no threads protruding from the nut - the bolt just wasn't long enough, unfortunately. That said, the nut tightened flush with the end of the bolt, and there's a shiny new hanger. Should be good to go for a while. I know I felt better busting the move with a solid clip.
You guys owe me $3.50. :)

I love how straight forward this climb is. Crux pitch takes gear really well although it does take some extra energy while lie backing. In a couple of spots I placed a couple of pieces when one would've sufficed. I think this was the difference between falling and onsighting it for me. I would say at the crux, the hands are all there but the feet get worse. Place good gear and clip directly into it no need to extend any slings (a habit formed when climbing 8's/9's), there is no drag on this pitch... keep moving!
If you want (or only have) a minimal rack I would take doubles with only one #1, and #2 C4. Small to medium nuts. You don't need tiny micro cams smallest piece I placed was a #1 metolius master cam. "Several" finger sized pieces are recommended, and if that means triples I disagreethe crux pitch isn't that long and you don't need gear for the anchor. Someone mentioned lugging up a #3 C4, which is really not needed at all because by the time you can place it your standing on the belay ledge with bolts right at your face if you turned around.

|did this route again after top roping the classic 3rd pitch over a year ago. route still feels easy to me. We did whodunit earlier in the morning and had plenty of sun left. 5.9 on that route felt way harder then any move on the 10a 3rd pitch of this route. dont need big gear either or plenty of it. I placed my first piece about 20-25 feet up on after easy climbing on flakes. Can place a bomber nut then just small cams. I think i put like 5-6 pieces on the route. Just move and dont pump your self out. if section your on feels hard, make one mover move and its a jug/nice finger slot

|I had a few of these comments go through my head after pulling the crux and realized just then how you could be so pumped out that you can't grab the giant jug 6 inches away and are going to take a 20+...that gave me the last ounce of energy to just get it. Incredible pitch, and stout for those of us breaking into the grade. Placing gear blind is definitely the crux of the route, otherwise surprisingly good locks, if semi-slick feet. Lot's of small C4 .4-, if you want to sew the crux up.

|Dont let the comments intimidate you if youre breaking into the 10s. This thing was way shorter than I thought it was going to be. There are good foot dishes every couple feet and bomber finger locks almost the whole way up so you dont have to muscle up the whole thing just laybacking. Also, the whole thing takes bomber gear, even the supposed run out end section. I placed a small cam easily 4 feet before the anchors. Place from the best stance and not indiscriminately, use good foot technique and you should save yourself a pump. Also, p3 was the only worthwhile pitch for me. If possible, I would skip p1 and 2 and link p3 to Traitor Horn for an ultra classic 2 pitch climb.

Agreed with many comments above re: the quality and approachability of the classic P3. It offers generous stances for pro, especially considering the short length of the pitch (which is literally the only bad thing about it). Protect well right before the crux and then fire to the chains; you'll burn far more energy trying to place mid-crux than doing one more move and grabbing the finish jug.
A worthwhile note - of you take P3 past the intended chains and the 15 feet of barely-fifth-class climbing to the right, you can build your anchor on a slightly higher set of chains that will let you rap directly into Coffin Nail. ECR 1-3 to Coffin Nail to Traitor Horn makes for a pretty marvelous trip up the rock.

Lead P3 2 days ago.
Didn't place nothing smaller then a .4 BD.
The crack never really gets very thin.
Lots of good feet.
The pitch seems more like 60ft vs 80ft.
We did this as an "add on" pitch while doing Fingertrip to Fingertip Tx.
Yeah.....its really good and not that hard for the grade!!

|"Third" pitch is very slick and classic. Pitches 1 and 2 link pretty easily, and I linked the "3rd" into pitch 4 to get to the top. Thought pitch 1 was rather contrived, runout, and forgettable, meh. Pitch 2 feels kind of squeezy and also contrived.

However, Pujols hasn't been cleared to play by Major League Baseball or the players union as he recovers from the minor surgery he had on his right knee shortly after the 2012 season concluded.
Pujols, 33, hit .285/.343/.516 with 30 homers and 105 RBIs this past season, though the Los Angeles Times notes he was relegated to DH duty for much of September because of his sore knee.
