"It was an inconvenience to have to move over there. But [the teams] adapted well, and it didn't hurt us in any way. It turned out to be a positive experience."
"The deputy activated his emergency equipment to stop the vehicle for traffic violation and the suspect then decided to try to flee."
"We swim well on the road, but we also swim well in our own pool. Other teams tend to struggle a little bit in our pool and hopefully that'll be the case on Friday."
"We'll have some good races with them, but we have more depth on both the guys and girls side. I feel that as long as our swimmers take it seriously, we should be successful."
"If you look at all of the [split] times, they were faster. So I knew it was going to be a barn-burner, but I didn't think it was going to go down to the finish like that."

All quotes by Scott Bosse
(9 quotes found)
"They are basically collecting every fish they can get their hands on. (The Corps) is using technological mechanisms to corral juvenile fish into pipes that eventually dump them into barges or trucks."
"This energy crisis will not spiral out of control or be brought under control by what happens to the Snake River dams."
"Juvenile salmon have a biological clock that begins ticking as soon as they begin their trip to the ocean. They need to undergo changes that will allow them to adapt from fresh water creatures to salt water creatures and arrive at the ocean at the same time their bodies have completed the transformation."
"The only time the dams are efficient at producing energy is during the spring runoff months. We can't simply flip a switch and release water that isn't there."
"When we had abundant cheap power there is less incentive to develop alternative sources of power. Now that we face scarce electricity supplies and much higher prices, that is changing."
"That means spilling water over the dams from spring until fall, 24 hours a day, as opposed to using turbines."
"The report calls for more water flow on a voluntary basis. It does not require any one that is involved to make sacrifices. The new plan relies on maximum fish barging. This is not the aggressive non-dam breaching plan NMFS said it was going to be. It's a passive, non-breaching plan."
"In 1980 the Northwest Power Planning Council set its mission to protect and restore salmon and steelhead and to ensure that the Northwest had a reliable, affordable energy supply. Twenty years later, we have extinctions and blackouts."

Starting Elevation: 2200 feet
Summit Elevation: 5220 feet
Total Gain: 3020 feet
Round Trip Distance: 5 miles
Putrid Pete's Peak is a minor summit of the I-90 corridor located on the ridge line between Web Mountain to the west and Mount Defiance to the East. Known to some as P3, it was named after the famous Himalayan veteran Pete Schoening (see history section). If you want to see what he looked like there is a photo of him in the summit register. The register is located under a large flat rock on top of the summit block. Unlike it's nearby neighbors, P3 is not a popular destination and many local hikers are unaware of it's existence. The hidden nature of the trail leading to the summit might be one such reason for this oversight. If you are thinking of attempting P3, you should be comfortable on steep loose dirt and semi-exposed class 3 scrambling.
HistoryPete Schoening (1927-2004), a Seattle native, was a classic example of the type of mountaineer that can be conditioned out of living in proximity to the Cascade Mountains. During his life he made several expeditions to the Himalayas and is best known for his famous belay on K2, August 10 1953. While lowering the injured Art Gilkey, George Bell lost his footing and if it hadn't been for Pete's successful belay, him and the five other climbers would have surely plunged to their death. When Gilkey realized that his injury was risking the lives of the other climbers, he cut the rope. This legendary belay is likely the most famous in mountaineering history. For more information on this story see the book K2 - The Savage Mountain by Charles Houston. Pete completed 5 of the seven summits and remained an avid mountaineer until the end. It is likely that the summit register containing his picture and autograph was placed on the summit of P3 by himself or his family in 2001.
Getting ThereFrom Seattle, take I-90 E to exit 45. Cross over the freeway and take road 9030 left to a junction about 1 mile down the road. Follow road 9031 to the left for another 3 miles until you reach the parking lot for the Ira Spring trail also know as the Mason Lake trail. As of June 2009 the road is washed out 1/10 of a mile from the trail head.
The Route
Begin at the Ira Spring / Mason Lake trail. Follow the trail 1/10 of a mile to the first switchback. Instead of turning to the right, continue forward over the sticks meant to block the way onto a faint path which quickly becomes well pronounced. After 1/3 of mile the trail begins switching back as it climbs steeply along the mellow ridge leading up towards the east summit. There are a few forks in the trail here so if in doubt, choose the fork leading up. This part of the route is similar to Mount Teneriffe or the old trail on Mailbox Peak.
Around 3900 feet the switchbacks end and so does the easy to follow trail. Climb straight up the top of the ridge over steep terrain and loose dirt and rocks. There are signs of occasional use but nothing substantial. Exercise caution when coming down this part of the route. The upper half of the route is out of the trees and awesome views of the 1-90 corridor open up all around. Bear Grass and wildflowers frequent these slopes as well. The last 20 feet to the east summit is a class 3 scramble and possible one of the easiest scrambles on I-90. Just beware of the northern cliff face when on the summit.
Red TapeCurrently the road leading to the Ira Spring trail is washed out in several places. In a higher clearance vehicle, it is possible to get within 1/10 of a mile of the trail head.
NW Forrest pass required on vehicles at the trail head.

Black Entertainment Television President Robert Johnson yesterday ended his opposition to building a publicly funded arena in downtown Washington, DC, now that Capitals and Bullets owner Abe Pollin has agreed to pay for the construction himself. Johnson: "The world turned upside down when Pollin agreed to pay for the arena construction. They should have gone private in the first place. ... We're not looking for hooks to bring the deal down." Johnson went on to say that he would stop efforts on Capitol Hill and elsewhere to block the deal, now regarding it as "very good" for the District (Howard Schneider, WASHINGTON POST, 1/5). Should Pollin need help in funding the $180M arena, Johnson offered financial assistance. In exchange, however, he would want the chance to buy the Bullets -- a team that Pollin has repeatedly said that he is not interested in selling (Jeanne Dewey, WASHINGTON TIMES, 1/5).
A plan unveiled Wednesday at a meeting of the L.A. Coliseum Commission calls for 42 luxury suites to be built this year in two rows atop a new press box at the Coliseum. The proposed construction would cost $17M and a decision of whether or not to go ahead with the project will have to be made by March. The deadline would "allow enough time to finish the press box and private luxury suites by the beginning of the fall football season." The costs of the current renovations to the Coliseum are now estimated to be slightly more than $92.7M, up from last month's estimate. Steven Soboroff, a Coliseum commissioner, said that "he hopes that after obtaining funds from a new concessions contract at the Coliseum and grants to build the new press box from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, loans of only about $5M would be necessary to finance the additional luxury suites" (Kenneth Reich, L.A. TIMES, 1/5).

Hi, hope you might be able to help with this!
have been working on the site, uploading changes to custom.css via ftp. Just refreshed the page and got the following error message
"Warning: require_once(css/dynamic-css.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /nfs/c06/h02/mnt/154267/domains/andrusierautographs.com/html/wp-content/themes/propulsion/f unctions.php on line 96

I had not touched css/dynamic-css.php in the work I had been doing.
However I re-uploaded the whole of the css folder from the theme files.
Still no luck – error message still showing.
Any ideas what has gone wrong here?
Hey susan_ideology,
If you have not modified any of the theme files outside of the custom.css, try reloading the theme via ftp onto your server. The errors above show a space in the name of functions.php which *may* be whats going on but if there is a file missing or corrupted, reloading everything should solve it regardless.
Hi Devin, I've just reloaded the whole propulsion file via ftp but still getting the same error message. Can you think of anything else I can do to resolve this? Many thanks. susan
Make a backup of the current propulsion folder and upload the entire theme folder again. Maybe another file is corrupt or some custom code causes a php error.
Best regards,
fixed! Phew…
The topic 'error message on server – theme file not available' is closed to new replies.

With the holiday season right around the corner, many people are already anticipating (sometimes costly) holiday shopping. Add on top of that all of the electricity that is consumed when powering the festive decorations around the house and in the yard. However, there are some things that you can do to cut that energy bill down this holiday season, and keep the bills down year around.
While cooking this holiday season, if you're using the oven to cook dinner, refrain from opening the door until the meal is ready. Opening the door lets out a lot of heat that the oven has to replenish. Also, crock-pots, microwaves, and toasters are more energy efficient than conventional ovens, and are best used for side dishes.
When looking for new lights to brighten your home, remember that LED strings of colorful lights are very bright and last 10 times longer than their incandescent counterparts. Just one incandescent bulb takes the same amount of energy as two 24 foot long LED strings. You can also use outlet timers to control when your decorations turn on and off, which is a great, hassle free way to keep tabs on energy usage.
Changing your household bulbs can also help. Switching from incandescent bulbs to CFLs or LED bulbs will cut your year round energy costs. Make sure that the last one out hits the light to cut your costs even further. If you have guests coming to visit (or if you yourself need a reminder), be sure to have them shut off lights, televisions, and fans when they leave a room.
Keep green in your pockets this holiday season by following these tips!
About Us: Source Power & Gas LLC is one of the fastest growing retail energy suppliers in Texas.

A bill to provide protections to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transsexual employees has picked up some surprising support in the General Assembly. The bill, which was introduced with 102 co-sponsors, would ban discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity or expression in employment, housing, credit and public accommodations.
A Susquehanna University poll shows that 60% of Pennsylvanians support the bill. To become law, the legislation would have to pass in two consecutive legislative sessions and then survive a voter referendum. Thirty-one other states have similar provisions.
The bill still faces considerable hurdles. Conservative Republicans have vowed to fight the bill and Rep. Daryl Metcalfe (R-Butler) introduced a constitutional "marriage protection" amendment the same day the anti-gay bias bill was introduced. It was co-sponsored by 27 other representatives, all Republicans.

Swedish/German extreme metallers ARCH ENEMY made their first-ever appearance in Maldives at the end of July.A two-and-a-half-minute clip featuring video highlights and photos from the trip can be viewed below. ARCH ENEMY was originally scheduled to perform in Maldives on July 23, but the concert ended up being pushed back to the next day due to bad weather and strong winds, organizers said. According to MaxLevel, LeCute RockStorm Chapter 3 – Awake your Senses, the show was postponed after several pieces of equipment — including the sound tent — were blown away by strong winds on the morning of July 23. "The only pending work was sound testing. When a band like this performs, they personally test the sound. But our equipments were damaged in the strong winds [Friday] morning," Mohamed Rasheed, MaxLevel Managing Director, said, according to Haveeru. Rasheed said the damaged lights were adjusted and repaired and assured the fans that the show would go ahead the following day.

Social & Medical Models of Disability | Integration is not Inclusion | FAQs | Article 24 of UN Convention | Salamanca Statement | News Archive | Inclusion is the Future
Models of Disability
Social Model
The Social Model was developed by disabled people. It takes the view that society creates barriers that 'disable' people from participating fully and on an equal basis with others and that these barriers must be removed. By creating barriers in buildings and structures or by not producing information in different formats such as Braille or Easy Read, people with impairments/health conditions are 'disabled'. This way of thinking takes the focus away from what is 'wrong' with a disabled person (their impairment or condition) and puts the emphasis on what we should all do, in alliance, to identify and remove barriers.
For example: using different means of communications to match the requirements of the individuals in the class will enable all children to communicate.
The Social Model of Disability leads us naturally towards a desire to develop Inclusive Practice.
Click here to find out more about the Social Model
Medical Model
The Medical Model sees the disabled person's impairment or health condition as 'the problem'. The focus is therefore on 'fixing' or 'curing' the individual. This is the Medical Model of Disability.
For example: A disabled person may use a wheel chair - this is not a problem, the problem is if there is no ramp!

Can Lifetime please make a Tim Gunn doll so I can dress him up in all sorts of outfits and take him with me wherever I go? There are plenty of weirdos like me who'd buy one. That's my creepy way of saying I love all the costumes he's been wearing this season, and the referee outfit with shorts is my favorite thus far.
Tim, his whistle, and his pale gams took the designers to a field where they had to participate in a relay race, purely for our viewing pleasure. Several of the designers expressed their lack of athletic prowess, surprising exactly no one. Alexander claimed that he hadn't exercised since 1876, confirming America's suspicions that he's a vampire.
The first-place finishers didn't even get a significant prize — first choice in fabric, an extra hour to sew — but we were the real winners because we got to see Jeremy and Alexander fumble in the flag-grab pit. Gentlemen, I know sports aren't your strong suit, but please, have some pride.
Ken started the episode off with another unfunny and cruel quip, comparing his racing partner Karen to a grandma. Karen is only 29, and she appears to be way stronger than smack-talking Ken.
Out of a field of supremely unimpressive contenders, Justin and Dom won the relay race. In the words of Will Ferrell as Alex Trebek, Truly stunning.

Auggie wants to be an ordinary ten-year-old. He does ordinary things – eating ice cream, playing on his Xbox. He feels ordinary – inside. But ordinary kids don't make other ordinary kids run away screaming in playgrounds. Ordinary kids aren't stared at wherever they go.
Born with a terrible facial abnormality, Auggie has been home-schooled by his parents his whole life. Now, for the first time, he's being sent to a real school – and he's dreading it.

Winner of the 2017 Stella Prize. A mesmerising literary novel about a lost man in search of connection – a meditation on love, art and commitment.
Set in Victorian London and an Essex village in the 1890's, and enlivened by the debates on scientific and medical discovery which defined the era, The Essex Serpent has at its heart the story of two extraordinary people who fall for each other, but not in the usual way.
They are Cora Seaborne and Will Ransome. Cora is a well-to-do London widow who moves to the Essex parish of Aldwinter, and Will is the local vicar. They meet as their village is engulfed by rumours that the mythical Essex Serpent, once said to roam the marshes claiming human lives, has returned. Cora, a keen amateur naturalist is enthralled, convinced the beast may be a real undiscovered species. But Will sees his parishioners' agitation as a moral panic, a deviation from true faith. Although they can agree on absolutely nothing, as the seasons turn around them in this quiet corner of England, they find themselves inexorably drawn together and torn apart.
Told with exquisite grace and intelligence, this novel is most of all a celebration of love, and the many different guises it can take.
Hannah Kent's remarkable new novel, The Good People, is set in an isolated valley in the west of Ireland early in the 19th-century.
Nóra Leahy has lost her daughter and her husband in the same year, and is now burdened with the care of her four-year-old grandson, Micheál. The boy cannot walk, or speak, and Nora, mistrustful of the tongues of gossips, has kept the child hidden from those who might see in his deformity evidence of otherworldly interference.
Unable to care for the child alone, Nóra hires a fourteen-year-old servant girl, Mary, who soon hears the whispers in the valley about the blasted creature causing grief to fall upon the widow's house.
Alone, hedged in by rumour, Mary and her mistress seek out the only person in the valley who might be able to help Micheál. For although her neighbours are wary of her, it is said that old Nance Roche has the knowledge. That she consorts with Them, the Good People. And that only she can return those whom they have taken …
Hannah Kent's first novel, Burial Rites, was acclaimed worldwide and it went on to be shortlisted for numerous awards, including the Stella Prize and the Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction. There are echoes of Burial Rites in The Good People. Both are historical novels in which human tragedy plays out against the rhythms of the natural world, and once again Kent displays an amazing ability to immerse herself in an unfamiliar landscape and to give that landscape life and voice. In The Good People the central characters wonderfully complex allowing the reader to feel both repulsed and intensely empathetic all at the same time.
I adored this novel.
Known and Strange Things is a collection of essays and articles that continue Teju Cole's preoccupations with place and identity. The book looks broadly at three themes: literature, photography and travel. As with Cole's previous novels, Open City and Every Day is for the Thief, the writing here is perceptive and considered, sending the reader off to exploring other areas. In this case to writers such as Derek Walcott, or reassessing Virginia Woolf, to photographers such as Saul Leiter and the Australian composer Peter Sculthorpe. In more autobiographical essays he recounts the night of Obama's election, his life split between Lagos and the US, his various travels and his interest in photography. Known and Strange Things is excellent collection of thoughts and meditations.
A mysterious island. An abandoned orphanage. And a strange collection of very curious photographs. It all waits to be discovered in Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, an unforgettable novel that mixes fiction and photography in a thrilling reading experience. As our story opens, a horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores its abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the children who once lived here – one of whom was his own grandfather – were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may have been quarantined on a desolate island for good reason. And somehow – impossible though it seems – they may still be alive. A spine-tingling fantasy illustrated with haunting vintage photography, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children will delight adults, teens, and anyone who relishes an adventure in the shadows. I haven't seen the movie but word on the street is the book is better…. as usual.
Late summer in North Dakota, 1999: Landreaux Iron stalks a deer along the edge of the property bordering his own. He shoots with easy confidence but only when he staggers closer does he realise he has killed his neighbour's son.
Dusty Ravich, the deceased boy, was best friends with Landreaux's five-year-old son, LaRose. The two families have been close for years and their children played together. Landreaux is horrified at what he's done; fighting off his longstanding alcoholism, he ensconces himself in a sweat lodge and prays for guidance. And there he discovers an old way of delivering justice for the wrong he's done. The next day he and his wife Emmaline deliver LaRose to the bereaved Ravich parents. Standing on the threshold of the Ravich home, they say, 'Our son will be your son now'.
LaRose is quickly absorbed into his new family. Gradually he's allowed visits with his birth family, whose grief for the son and brother they gave away mirrors that of the Raviches. The years pass and LaRose becomes the linchpin that links both families. As the Irons and the Raviches grow ever more entwined, their pain begins to subside. But when a man who nurses a grudge against Landreaux fixates on the idea that there was a cover-up the day Landreaux killed Dusty – and decides to expose this secret – he threatens the fragile peace between the two families…
Neighbourhood is the second delicious collection of salads (and a few sweets!) from Arthur Street Kitchen's Hetty McKinnon. Her first book of salads, Community, was a huge hit and this book is bound to be just as popular. Hetty has pulled up stumps and moved to from Surry Hills to Brooklyn and these recipes are inspired by many different places, journeying from Brooklyn to the greater Americas, the Mediterranean, Asia, France, Australia and many other places around the world for inspiration. The Arthur Street Kitchen concept is simple – local food for local people – and Neighbourhood stays true to this winning formula. I can highly recommend the Roasted Sweet Potato and Leek Salad with Mustard Croutons…. delish!
New York Times best-selling author-illustrator Oliver Jeffers and fine artist Sam Winston deliver a lyrical picture book inspiring readers of all ages to create, to question, to explore, and to imagine.
A little girl sails her raft across a sea of words, arriving at the house of a small boy and calling him away on an adventure. Through forests of fairy tales and across mountains of make-believe, the two travel together on a fantastical journey that unlocks the boy's imagination. Now a lifetime of magic and adventure lies ahead of him . . . but who will be next? Combining elegant images by Oliver Jeffers and Sam Winston's typographical landscapes shaped from excerpts of children's classics and lullabies, A Child of Books is a stunning prose poem on the rewards of reading and sharing stories—an immersive and unforgettable reading experience that readers will want to pass on to others.
The latest issue of Westerly, guest edited by Steve Kinnane, reminds readers of the power and importance of stories in maintaining and renewing culture. A celebration of Indigenous writing, 61.1 includes new writing across all genres and from a variety of known and little-known writers. Proud in its cover art by Bella Kelly, Westerly 61.1 asserts its place in Western Australian literary culture.
Notable contributions include Tara June Winch's story 'The Yield', Kim Scott's non-fiction piece 'Both Hands Full' and the poem 'Sap Clot' by Alison Whittaker ( Tender! Horror! // Thrice upon the shore comes the violence ). The Katinka Smit's debut story 'Behind the Line' is similarly impressive in its portrayal of cultural ambivalence.
But in a way it is the personal stories of less well-known writers that point up the strengths of Indigenous voices and the personal challenges that have been surmounted. Two joyous vignettes by young boys from Mulan in the Tanami desert, Bella Kelly's daughters recounting their mother's life and art, and Doris Eaton's 'Giveaway' story are three such examples.
Now in its 60th year, this latest Westerly must be among its most notable. A collection of stories, reviews and essays that reminds all readers that the west of Australia has a long indigenous past, a continuing present, and a future.
Patrick Holland is the critically acclaimed author of The Mary Smokes Boys and Riding Trains in Japan.
One is a cold, grim novel based on the true story of the Kenniff gang – Australia's 'last bushrangers' – as they are pursued on horseback by trooper Sergeant Nixon. Set at the beginning of the 20th century, the novel also documents a point of change in the country's psyche as it grapples with notions of nationhood and increasing modernisation.
Narrated largely through the perspective of Sergeant Nixon, the trooper's moral compass begins to waver the longer the chase continues. Kenniff's legendary decisiveness also begins to crumble as the novel moves toward its final throes. Often compared to Cormac McCarthy's westerns, one of the pleasures of One is the muscularity and sparseness of Holland's prose.
"I look up to the birds that seem to be following us. They are migrating just like us. And their journey, like ours, is very long, but they don't have to cross any borders."
With haunting echoes of current affairs this beautifully illustrated children's book explores the unimaginable decisions made as a family leave their home and everything they know to escape the turmoil and tragedy brought by war. A beautifully sympathetic and relevant tale about the plight of refugees.
Stunningly presented by the design conscious Flying Eye Books, this book will stay with you long after the last page is turned. Have the tissue box at the ready.
Nick Cave brings his talent for exploring the more depraved parts of humanity while maintaining eloquence and a real talent for telling a story to his second novel The Death of Bunny Munro.
The Death of Bunny Munro tells the story of Bunny Munro, a beauty products salesman who travels the South Coast of England hawking his most definitely useless beauty products (he refers to this as "selling hope") to lonely housewives.
Upon the sudden suicide of his wife he decides to take his son, Bunny Junior, on one final ride through England's South Coast. I say one last ride because along with an all-consuming obsession with women and sex (especially Avril Lavinge) Bunny is carrying an intense anxiety and dread that soon his life will end.
This is a story of a bad man who was never meant to be a father, his heartbreakingly innocent son and his last ditch effort to outrun a monster he can't comprehend. He describes it as his own death but we might get the impression he's running from his own sins, his own guilt and in a tragically doomed way he's trying to protect his son from a monster he can't see nor understand.
I've always been impressed by writers who can make us sympathise with terrible people, (Cormac McCarthy with his novel Child of God springs to mind) it takes a real understanding of the complexities of people to translate that into writing. This novel could have so easily been, in another less talented authors hands, a trite, crass and shallow mess. But in the hands of a master storyteller like Nick Cave we're left with a haunting, heart breaking, complex and tragic tale of a man desperate for redemption – even if he won't admit it to himself.
Veteran novelist Douglas Coupland is back with his satirical takes on reality TV shows, the end of the world and political correctness gone mad. In the midst of all this lies Raymond Gunt (synonym fully intended), a B-unit camera man and a B grade human being who manages to find a spot on a Survivor style American TV show and drags along, what is now this reviewers favourite side character of all time, a homeless sage called Neal. From London to LA to a Pacific island paradise, hilarity and mayhem closely follows this pair of idiots. Coupland weaves this tale with a smart, observational take on the often bizarreness of modern life.
The writing is well done and fast paced, with all of the characters, both major and minor, life-like enough to be cutting you off on the freeway or taking a loaded shopping cart into your local express lane. This book is a must read for anyone who thinks the world is quietly going insane or who enjoys a comic tale involving bad things happening to bad people.
Justifiably a classic of the graphic novel genre, The Complete Maus interweaves the devastating story of how Art Spiegelman's parents survived the Nazi death camps, with the often funny frustrations of Art's relationship as an adult with his elderly father. The black and white line drawings, which represent the Jews as mice and the Germans as cats, look a little like wood cuts and manage to convey settings, emotion, and character with only a few lines. Art's father, Vladek, is a resourceful charmer and the dialogue between him and Art will make you laugh (and tear your hair out on Art's behalf).
The Passage is the first in Justin Cronin's epic trilogy – what a cracking read!
A gripping tale of catastrophe and survival, The Passage is the story of Amy—abandoned by her mother at the age of six, pursued and then imprisoned by the shadowy figures behind a government experiment of apocalyptic proportions. But Special Agent Brad Wolgast, the lawman sent to track her down, is disarmed by the curiously quiet girl and risks everything to save her. As the experiment goes nightmarishly wrong, Wolgast secures her escape—but he can't stop society's collapse. And as Amy walks alone, across miles and decades, into a future dark with violence and despair, she is filled with the mysterious and terrifying knowledge that only she has the power to save the ruined world.
If you haven't delved into this unputdownable series now is the time. The sequel, The Twelve, is equally as good and the third and final instalment, House of Mirrors, has just hit the shelves. Happy binge reading!
Tough Guys Have Feelings Too by Keith Negley really strikes a chord. This deceptively simple picture book explores male emotions through a range of 'tough guy' characters. From wrestlers to ninjas, bikies to superheroes, the characters openly display their feelings showing it's ok to feel sad or upset. I absolutely love this book – particularly the gorgeous ending. Stunningly illustrated with a powerful message.
Sharon recommends...
Set in Victorian London and an Essex village in the 1890's, and enlivened by the debates on scientific and medical discovery which defined the era, The Essex Serpent has at its heart the story of two extraordinary people who fall for each other, but not in the usual way.
They are Cora Seaborne and Will Ransome. Cora is a well-to-do London widow who moves to the Essex parish of Aldwinter, and Will is the local vicar. They meet as their village is engulfed by rumours that the mythical Essex Serpent, once said to roam the marshes claiming human lives, has returned. Cora, a keen amateur naturalist is enthralled, convinced the beast may be a real undiscovered species. But Will sees his parishioners' agitation as a moral panic, a deviation from true faith. Although they can agree on absolutely nothing, as the seasons turn around them in this quiet corner of England, they find themselves inexorably drawn together and torn apart.
Told with exquisite grace and intelligence, this novel is most of all a celebration of love, and the many different guises it can take.

computer won't start help
my computer will not start it will not power on the green light inside the computer at the bottom inside it keeps flashing how can i fix this
|My System Specs
|15 Aug 2010
Sounds like you have a component malfunction the best thing to do is remove components and test your machines parts to see if it would boot it could be the psu gone bad
just generally if a pc is failing to come on or boot ussually means the mainboard has went bad or possibly the cpu you basicly have to check each system part to determain the cause
if removing certain items and using your onboard devices to test if it still doesnt do anything i would be in the market to make a new rig just saying cause you could have possibly toasted something

i have tryed the power supply cord in another computer it is fine it work fine last night i turned off my computer and then i switch it off by the button beside the power cord when it was already powered down

well wicca i had that similar issue with my cousins rig he just wanted me to add ram to his system but when i pluged up his machine into the work station wiring his machine did not start thus i guess the power from the cord or what ever fried the board
so i ended up taking my old p4board and installing it with a hdd that already had the os so i wouldn't have to do a clean install
pretty much the lesson here is i tryed all options before i changed the board the video card the hdd everything pretty much his board got friend when he pluged the power up or when he up plugged it
i dont know why this happenes but im pretty sure your system is done i would look into replacement
but before you give up take a power supply from another machine and see if it powers it the psu could cause it not to start as well if a fuse has blown but if the psu isnt it and removing other cards and devices and just reverting back to the onboard plug ins to test
if all else fails you need to upgrade but chances are you follow the above you might get it to work again

Charges for fire emergency call-outs
Sir, – The Public Notice from Dublin City Council in The Irish Times(p29, January 12th) raises some alarming questions.
As a retired fire safety engineer and a former member of the Fire Services Council, I find the decision to announce at four days' notice (including the weekend) a charge for attendances by the Dublin Fire Brigade quite shocking and illogical. This will lead to injuries and possibly even deaths.
The hard-pressed householder or tenant will think twice before calling the fire brigade to any initially small domestic fire – and they all start small – preferring to try to tackle it themselves, perhaps leading to a much more serious fire before having to call for assistance in the end. In the meantime, he or she might have received serious burns in their vain effort. They may also have thought they extinguished the fire when in fact there was still smouldering material ready to re-ignite at any minute, something which the trained fireman would ensure was dealt with before departing the scene.
Dublin City Council also refers to the €500 charge being payable for "false alarms". Such a suggestion is almost laughable as it is not very long since a fire brigade officer at the chief fire officers' annual conference told the gathering that some 94 per cent of false alarms are "not traceable".
The charge of €610 for attendance at Road Traffic Accidents raises many more questions, including: 1. If a fire tender arrives to provide first aid or other medical attention, will the injured party have to pay, even if the call by a bystander was for an ambulance – remember that Dublin Fire Brigade provides the ambulance service for most of their response area? I am aware of several recent cases where a fire tender was sent due to a shortage of accident ambulances.
2. What happens if gardaí at the scene request a fire service attendance to assist in removing a vehicle or vehicles from the carriageway to prevent traffic delays? Who pays? The gardaí? 3. Who pays if the gardaí call the Dublin Fire Brigade to wash down the road of debris or oil after the removal of a vehicle? 4. If a motorist or passengers are trapped and have to be freed from a crashed vehicle, they have no option but to be rescued by the fire service.
This is then a compulsory charge for being in an accident – you cannot opt out and therefore must pay. Where is the fairness in that? There are very more questions that could be asked, I have just picked out a small number of what I believe to be pertinent.
Remember also that this does not just apply to the Dublin City Council area but applies to all those living in Dublin City, Dublin South, Fingal and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown and for Road Traffic Accidents along stretches of the motorways extending into adjoining counties.
The only solution to the costs of the fire services in the greater Dublin area is the same one sought for the past 60 years: the proper funding by State and local authorities of a service that has been bled of such funds and which continues to, for example, use vehicles that are up to 20 years old and patently not up to the job they are required to perform. The householder or tenant should not be required to bolster the funds of the fire service. – Yours, etc,

What are 'white roads'?
They are roads shown on OS maps without any colouration.
Metalled (tarmac) roads are always shown in colour, the minor roads being yellow.
OS Legend and it says yellow is "Road generally less than 4m wide"
White: "Other road, drive or track"
So OS distinction is width not metalling? Of course they always state ""The representation on this map of any road, track or path is no evidence of a right of way". The public in general take coloured roads to be public roads and white roads not to be? Is that true?
How are Rights defined?
The 1948 Act.................required HAs to set up Definitive Maps (DMs) to define rights of way, then being footpaths and bridleways. Parishes were required to submit to the County HA maps showing what they believed to be rights of way. The maps submitted generally still exist in for my parish I have a photo of it. Each path has a description, in many case you find "terminates on County Road at XX", but it is no longer a County Road aha!
We have recently discovered that the guidance issued at the time said they must not include roads on the submitted maps. Now at that time many roads were single track unmetalled lanes well used by the public so having footpaths terminating on them was not a problem. Most of them would be widened and tarmaced over time and find there way onto the "List of Streets" (LoS) with vehicular rights established by common use, who would question it now it is full of traffic? However some remained as tracks, some fell into disuse.
A paper in the House of Commons Library (ref:??) estimated there 40,000 in England and Wales and they are not properly recorded anywhere. They could be lost to all users in 2026.
The List of Streets is simply a list showing which ways are maintained at public expense, it does not actually define rights as does the DM. There is no doubt that the LoS were intended to be vehicular routes and LARA have produced and extensive paper on this matter. Unfortunately a small number of HAs started adding minor non vehicular routes to the LoS to define them as Maintained at Public expense (example cycleway along Leek and Manifold NG Railway in PD). This gave the anti vehicle movement an opportunity to claim not all routes on the LoS are vehicular and by constant repetition extend this to claim no routes are vehicle unless proven which has created a major problem with highway records.
Lost Ways
In addition to the 40,000 white roads unrecorded there are many ancient routes that have fallen into disuse or are still used but not recorded correctly. Estimates vary but it is in excess of 20,000 each, used but unrecorded and unused and lost. Many may only be footpaths but could be bridleways or byways.
So far we have two incomplete records ( DM and LoS) and possibly up to 80,000 unrecorded ways
Street Gazetteers
As the country develop over recent decades two major problems arose:
1. The control of Statutory Utilities: They who keep digging up our roads
2. The allocation of addresses: Street names, post codes etc, somebody has to do it! Sat Navs!
What does Private mean?
This is the really interesting bit! If you ask a HA about white roads, lost ways etc and they are not on the DM or LoS they will say they are private! If you buy a house on such a road you will have to take out insurance to cover the value of your property if it turns out private means somebody owns it and will put up a gate! In many case the ownership is indeterminate becuase it is a public road that is unrecorded correctly, but the HA does not want to take it on as it will cost them money (adoption!)
We have examples of HAs saying such a road is "private" so an adjacent landowner immediately obstructs it, when in fact public rights must exist! So what they actually mean by private means "not publically maintained". We have now proposed that private needs wider definition and splitting into two:
1. Private, no public rights and privately maintained
2. Private but with public rights of access but privately maintained
At the moment gazetteers do not differentiate. So now we have four records non of which is a clear and full record! Oh yes and the first two have to be paper documents for legal reasons but may be digitised for convenience. The LSG/SWR are generally digitised. in Herefordshire the SWR is created and run by Highways. The LSG by IT, oops think that is wrong way round. Massive duplication of cost and effort to created a record full of holes.

Legal Question in Family Law in Colorado
Appointing a legal guardian for minor children in a will
I have a minor child from a previous marriage. After my divorce in 1999 the biological father of my daughter relinquished all legal rights to our daughter. I am getting married again very soon. I am trying to write a will. I need to know how to assign custody (a legal guardian) of my child. If something were to happen to myself and my new husband would my ex-husband get custody of her or can I, being her only 'legal parent', assign custody of her to my mother or my new husband's mother? Or in the case of my death, would my new husband gain legal custody of her? (if stated in the will as so?)
1 Answer from Attorneys
Re: Appointing a legal guardian for minor children in a will
If the father has truly relinqished his rights, you have a court order saying that he has done so. Typically that is not done without an accompanying step-parent adoption. If there is no court order on the relinqishment the bio father still has full rights. If there has been an adoption the adoptive father is treated as if he were the bio father. If you are writing your will talk it over with your attorney. This is not a situation where writing your own will is a good idea. You could make your child's life miserable if it is not done right.

There are many ways that we can be reminded of a traumatic experience. A trauma reminder makes us think about or remember something about what happened. It can be a person, a place, a thing, a situation, or a feeling inside. Trauma reminders can cause us to feel afraid, upset, or keep us on the lookout for danger. Our bodies may react and "remember," even though we are not aware of having been reminded.
Trauma reminders are everywhere in the aftermath of traumatic experiences and can occur for years to come. Because they are usually brief and happen every so often, we do not get used to them. Instead, reminders may act to restart our posttraumatic stress reactions or behavior. After a reminder, we can become irritable, have mood changes, have trouble sleeping, or find it more difficult to study or do work. It is not always easy to recognize reminders. One of the most difficult results of a shared trauma among family members is that, in the aftermath, and for years to come, family members may serve as trauma reminders to each other.

The bad: a new kind of crime may have taken its place.
The Prairie Village Police Department is warning residents to be on guard against the theft of wheels off SUVs.
Over the course of the past few months, more than five cars parked in driveways or on the street in Mission Hills have had their wheels stolen. The cars are left sitting on blocks.
"Sometimes they bring their own blocks, sometimes they find blocks in the vicinity that they use," said Capt. Wes Lovett.
The incidents have been concentrated in the neighborhoods between 63rd Street and 67th Street, from State Line Road to Belinder Road. Lovett said Range Rovers, GMC Yukons and Chevrolet Tahoes have been the most common targets. The thefts tend to take place between 2 and 5 a.m.
"It's unusual to have crimes of this sort in Mission Hills," Lovett said. "We're hoping people who see anything suspicious in the early morning hours will call the police."
Additionally, Lovett said, car owners can project themselves by parking in well-lit areas.

Check out the first trailer for director Richard Raaphorst's "Frankenstein's Army", which is, not surprisingly, about a mad scientist who creates an army to fight his enemies. In this case, it's WWII, and his enemies are a platoon of Soviet soldiers. Which is nice. I'm tired of seeing American soldiers getting ripped to shreds by wacky Nazi weaponry. As you might expect, it looks pretty damn ridiculous, but given the title and premise, it's really nothing I wasn't expecting. Which isn't to say it shouldn't be fun times in the ol abandoned factory.
Vodka, anyone?
In the waning days of World War II, a battalion of Russian soldiers find themselves lost in enemy territory. Stumbling upon a village decimated by an unseen terror, they discover that a mad scientist (Hellboy's Karel Roden) conducts experiments to fuse flesh and steel, creating an unstoppable army of undead soldiers. Leaderless and faced with dissention amongst their dwindling ranks, they must find the courage to face down an altogether new menace—or die trying.
The film's biggest name is Karel Roden, playing the mad scientist. He's joined by a lot of people I've never heard of, including Joshua Sasse, Robert Gwilym, Alexander Mercury, Luke Newberry, Hon Ping Tang, and Andrei Zayats.

President Bush recently signed into law the FY 2008 Defense Appropriations bill. The bill will cost $459.594 billion to fund the war in Iraq and provide equipment and training for 12,000 additional troops — the number recommended by the military to help alleviate the long tours of duty currently facing troops in Iraq.
The Defense Appropriations Committee held 31 hearings and six formal briefings on the bill. It is an increase of $39.72 billion dollars from 2007.
The bill includes millions of dollars in investments secured by Congressman Jim Walsh, that Walsh claims will retain and create jobs at local businesses and meet the vital needs of servicemen and women in combat.
Central New York produces research and technology applications of national importance, Walsh said. Our companies and researchers are solving pressing challenges presented by today's geopolitical environment. As the reputation of our workforce, its products, and its employers grows in Washington, I expect we'll see more opportunities for federal contracts with area businesses. Not only does this investment significantly impact our region's economy, but it provides life-saving technology for American troops and enhances our nation's public infrastructure and health systems.
Included in the bill is $16.2 million in funding for Department of Defense-related projects by area entities including:
– $2,400,000 for Lockheed Martin in Liverpool for electronics for the Littoral Combat Ship.
– $2,400,000 for Syracuse Research Corporation in North Syracuse for the development of intelligence-gathering systems.
– $3,500,000 for Defenshield in East Syracuse for security checkpoints used to protect troops in Iraq.
– $2,000,000 for Source Sentinel in East Syracuse for the detection of biologics in water supplies.
– $1,500,000 for GE Industrial, Inspection Technologies & Sensing in Skaneateles Falls for inspection systems for propulsion equipment.
– $2,400,000 for a joint research program between the State University of New York and Syracuse University called FIRST for development of specialized clothing and technologies used in hazardous environments (radiological, biological and chemical).
– $1,000,000 for Progressive Expert Consulting, Inc. in Syracuse for foreign language training systems used to prepare troops.
– $1,000,000 for thermal/infrared imaging equipment for an Army National Guard Black Hawk helicopter squadron based in Rochester.

An innovative urban sustainable farm project in Contra Costa County that will provide produce for a local food bank and schools has taken a major step forward. The CoCo San Sustainable Farm, a project of non-profit AgLantis (501c-3), recently secured a $50,000 contribution from the County to help build a 6,000-square-foot hydroponics greenhouse on a buffer land section of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District located in Contra Costa County's Northern Waterfront.
The Contra Costa County Livable Communities Trust Fund recently awarded $50,000 at my recommendation and that of my colleague on the Board of Supervisors, Supervisor Federal Glover. This funding is for the assembly of a
6000 square foot, high-tech, commercial greenhouse in partnership with AgraTech, Inc., of Pittsburg, CA. Thanks to the latest funding, the greenhouse is expected to be built in 2017. AgLantis will be raising funds from the community to build the required fencing and to equip the greenhouse.
The aim of the CoCo San Sustainable Farm is to grow produce on the 15-acre urban farm in 2018. The project addresses a need to reduce nutritional poverty by providing access to free or low-cost fresh produce through a unique combination of using urban public buffer land, community involvement, otherwise wasted recycled water, and harnessing the produce growth efficiencies of greenhouses.
The project aligns with the County Livable Communities Trust Fund's goals in promoting innovative land use planning and design principles, and promoting economic revitalization. The CoCo Sustainable Farm, situated in Contra Costa County's Northern Waterfront across state Route 4 from Buchanan Field Airport, will be irrigated by recycled, nutrient-rich, agricultural grade water that currently ends up in the Suisun Bay as treated wastewater. The farm will benefit from the efficiencies of greenhouse production, which produces up to 40 times the volume of food at one-tenth the water use.
The Contra Costa Food Bank will pick up and distribute fresh produce from the farm to its clients and area schools. Community supported agriculture boxes from the farm will provide low-cost, seasonal food to local residents. In addition, CoCo San Sustainable Farm will serve an educational function, serving as a hands-on outdoor classroom for students and local residents, highlighting the science and engineering that happens on a farm.
Transportation from vehicles is one of the largest sources of air pollution in Contra Costa County, representing 47 percent of total greenhouse gas emissions in 2013. These emissions have negative impacts on our health, including aggregated asthma, coughing or difficult breathing, decreased lung function, cardiovascular problems, and bronchitis. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that idling in personal vehicles wastes about three billion gallons of fuel annually.
