LIVERPOOL will tonight approve a historic 3% cut in Council Tax. The move will knock Liverpool off the top of the league table of the country's most expensive councils for the first time in 10 years.
The budget package was hailed by council leader Mike Storey (pictured) as an "emotional and historic moment" for the city's 206,000 council tax payers.
But it will mean #22 million worth of cuts in council spending - to be achieved largely through an all out war on bureaucratic red tape.
Education spending will INCREASE, but computers will help streamline council departments, saving millions on town hall paperwork.
Band A taxpayers will see a saving on their annual bill of #23.43, to #757.59 a year.
Massive savings needed>
by Mark Thomas, Liverpool Echo
LIVERPOOL city council will have to make #22 million worth of savings to cut council tax by 3%.
And many of those savings will come through the use of computer technology to cut through bureaucracy and streamline council services.
Council chiefs cannot say exactly how many jobs will go - but insist that they will continue to pursue their policy of no compulsory redundancies.
And they pledged that more money will be spent on education despite the overall spending cuts.
The council says the new savings package will bring to #102m the savings made since the new Liberal Democrat administration froze council tax in 1998.
In that time the total workforce has shrunk from around 23,000 to 19,800, with many of those remaining having been redeployed to new jobs.
New saving plans include:
* Streamlining and computerising the council's massive purchasing and invoicing operation. The council will negotiate big discounts by ordering in bulk, ending the current process by which 100 council staff buy from 18,000 different suppliers. Saving: #5m.
* Cut backs on bureaucratic red tape - including closing six of the council's SEVEN mail rooms. Saving: #4m.
* Reducing the number of children placed in care outside the city by 180. Saving: #1.8m.
* Renegotiating the Onyx refuse service. Saving: #1m.
* Amalgamation of environmental health, trading standards and licensing departments. Saving: #900,000.
* An efficiency drive in running social services transport. Saving: #700,000.
* Taking over parking enforcement from the police, with the launch of a new join venture company to run both enforcement and car parking. Saving: #420,000.
* Reducing the number of consultants paid for by the council: Saving #500,000.
The council is also looking at measures to boost income to help balance the books.
One plan is the expansion of a secure local authority unit for young people from 12 to 18 places, and hiring out use of the expensive facility to other councils, earning around #220,000 a year.
The council also plans to open a new "lifestyle" gym in Liverpool city centre, which is estimated to bring in at least #200,000 a year.

An historic moment>
by Jane Woodhead and Mark Thomas, Liverpool Echo
COUNCIL leader Mike Storey hailed the budget he was unveiling today as "an emotional and historic moment" for Liverpool.
He said the city's position as the country's most expensive local authority was unfair to council tax payers and scared off investors.
"We were paying as a city the most tax of anywhere for the second worst services.
"You could understand if we were paying the lowest tax for the lowest services or highest tax for Rolls Royce services - but the government's performance indicators were there for everyone to see.
"Over the last four years we have frozen council tax and now cut it. You would have thought our services would get worse, because we have less people and less money.
"In fact 70% of the government indicators have improved."
He said the 3% reduction brought Liverpool council tax payers much closer to the level of others on Merseyside.
"A commitment was given four years ago and we have stuck to that.
"We are determined to make the services which we provide to the people of this city among the best."
Cllr Storey said having the highest council tax had a significant impact on Liverpool's image.
"By paying the most council tax in the country jobs and investment have been driven away.
"But Liverpool is now starting to do well. We are now getting the financial base of the city right.
"I don't know whether next year we will raise council tax by inflation or freeze it again. Who knows what will happen next year?
"But, if we were thrown out of office tomorrow you could not turn the clock back and go back to the way it was. Liverpool council will never be the same."
Tax to be slashed>
by Jane Woodhead, Liverpool Echo
COUNCIL Tax in Liverpool is to be slashed by 3%, it was revealed today.
For the first time in a decade, residents in the city will no longer pay the highest council tax in Britain for some of the poorest services.
Liverpool now ranks in fourth place behind Rutland County Council, which is top of the list, Hartlepool Borough Council and Salford City Council.
Liverpool council leader Cllr Mike Storey said: "We currently rank fourth but there is every chance that we could be lower down the list when every authority across the country has set its council tax."
A band D Liverpool council taxpayer's bill will go down #35.15 to #1,136.39 and band A home-owners, who account for more than half of the people in the city, will see a reduction of #23.43 taking their bills down to #757.59.
The move to cut council tax by the ruling Liberal Democrat group follow four years of frozen council tax bills since they came to power in 1998.
It brings Liverpool more in line with other neighbouring authorities across Merseyside.
Band D homeowners in Wirral are to pay #1,077.24 after the council agreed to freeze council tax. In Knowsley they will pay #1,056.91 and in St Helens #1,099.06.
During the last four years a band D taxpayer in Liverpool will have saved a total of #686.33 thanks to the freeze and the cut.
Liverpool has achieved the cut despite having to absorb increases of 11% in the Merseyside police authority budget and 6.9% for the fire authority.
Cllr Storey added: "In the last four years we have absorbed the costs of the fire and police precept.
"In this budget, we have managed to take their hit and still cut council tax by 3% to take us off the top of the league."
According to Government guidelines, the people of Liverpool have been receiving the second worst services, despite paying the most council tax.
But services are expected to have made massive improvements when the Government publishes its latest performance indicators in the summer.
The 3% cut will be officially endorsed at a special meeting of the full council tonight when Labour will put forward its proposals.

Balance Your Energy with Zero Balance
I learned of a new one today (for me at least). Zero balancing. No, it's not an accounting technique. It's "a hands-on bodywork system designed to align your energy body with your physical structure". Sounds interesting, let's see whats been published on the subject in the medical literature. Lots of interesting articles can be found when you enter "zero balancing" on PubMed. But I'm pretty sure that "Effect of an odor eliminator on feline litter box behavior" isn't really about aligning your body energy.
I'm pretty sure I can find something about Zero Balancing at the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine. Oh no! "'No matches were found for 'zero and balancing'"
This is very confusing. Here is a technique practiced around the country where hundreds if not thousands have been "healed". It's a method developed by Dr. Fritz Frederick Smith.

This is very confusing. Here is a technique practiced around the country where hundreds if not thousands have been "healed". It's a method developed by Dr. Fritz Frederick Smith.
Dr. Smith received his doctory of osteopathy in 1955 and his doctor of medicine in 1961. During the '60s and '70s he went in pursuit of a deeper understanding of illness and health, becoming a student of Rolfing®, yoga, meditation and Eastern philosophies. Dr. Smith became a licensed acupuncturist in 1972 and later studied with J.R. Worsley of the Chinese College of Acupuncture in England, earning both bachelor's and master's degrees in acupuncture. It was during this time that he also experienced intense personal revelations under the teaching of Swami Muktananda. These latter two experiences became the catalysts for his ultimate creation in 1975 of Zero Balancing.Surely there must be something published somewhere in the peer reviewed literature about such an important "healing" technique. And, Swami Muktananda .....it can't be the same Swami Muktananda that they are writing about here or here.

Jon Stewart on El Rushbo
F-22 vs X-47B
It's budget time and the military budget is being "cut". That means they are only getting a 4% increase rather than the "traditional" 9% increase. This puts our country in danger claim the conservatives. That's right. The country (us) that spends almost half the money spent on defense in the world will be in danger if we don't spend even more.
The F-22 fighter jet, the best fighter aircraft on Earth. But who is it going to be used against. Who are we currently fighting that even has an airforce. An F-22 fighter jet costs about 500 million each. That's 500 five year medical research grants. The total cost of 30 F-22 aircraft would zero out the New York State budget deficit.
Ok, say you convince me that we need a high performing fighter aircraft. You want high performance, then you need an unmanned fighter jet that can handle many times the g forces that a human can handle. Oops, don't need the F-22? Then we need to start questioning whether we need an airforce and fighter pilots. Any kid that can play a computer game could probably fly an unmanned aircraft.
Let's not fall for these stupid "you're putting the country in danger games". We need to cut spending or at least spend what money we have in a wiser way.
The High Speed Train to Sin City
Is there really money in the economic stimulus package for a high speed railroad from Disneyland to Las Vegas? Several members of the Repubic party have stated so and so have the talking heads on FOX News and talk radio. Either these people are lying or they are ignorant. Here is a story that shows it may just be ignorance.
A columnist from LA, Dick Spotswood, visited his congressional representative Mary Bono Mack.
Met with Republican Rep. Mary Bono Mack from Riverside County's Coachella Valley. While a social moderate, Sonny Bono's widow is a solid conservative. Talked to her about Obama's $780 billion stimulus legislation. She's outraged that the plan has "$1 billion wasted on a magnetic-levitation train from L.A. to Sin City" -- all at Nevada Sen. Harry Reid's doing.Spotswood's congressional rep wasn't lying to him about the high speed rail project. She really believed it was in the bill. It was just ignorance. She probably heard some lying talking head say that the rail project was in the bill and believed what she heard.
After expressing my doubt that the Las Vegas line was actually in the bill's language, Bono Mack directs her staff to "get him the bill, it's right there, show him." A few minutes later, a staffer emerges with a copy and quietly says "it's not in the bill."

Asteroid Near Miss
Are we due for an asteroid strike? You'd never know it, but yesterday at 13:44 Universal time, a small asteroid came within 40,000 miles of the Earth.
Late word out of the IAU's Minor Planet Center: a small asteroid will pass close to Earth tomorrow (March 2nd) at 13:44 Universal Time. How close? The MPC's Timothy Spahr calculates that it'll be 0.00047 astronomical unit from Earth's center. That's only about 40,000 miles (63,500 km) up — well inside the Moon's orbit and roughly twice the altitude of most communications satellites!But that is not the bad news. The asteroid just showed up 2 days ago when it was only 1.5 million miles away.
This little cosmic surprise, designated 2009 DD45, turned up two days ago as a 19th-magnitude blip in images taken by Rob McNaught at Siding Spring Observatory in Australia. It was already within 1½ million miles of Earth and closing fast.In 1908, an asteroid just 3 times larger than 2009 DD45 hit Siberia. It is known as the Tunguska event. Look at the effects of that explosion:

Sen. Tom Harkin is a Boob
Poor Tom Harkin. He went to all the trouble of setting up the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine and they have disappointed him (listen around 17:55).
One has to wonder, aren't there better and smarter people that could serve in Congress?
One of the purposes of this center was to investigate and validate alternative approaches. Quite frankly, I must say publicly that it has fallen short. It think quite frankly that in this center and in the office previously before it, most of its focus has been on disproving things rather than seeking out and approving.Gee, the center was supposed to prove that alternative medicine has something to offer and they just failed. Therapeutic touch, prayer, and magnets should have worked, but those damn scientists at NCCAM just couldn't prove they actually do work. Want more of a rant on this topic? Then visit Science-Based Medicine here.

Biology Busy
It was a really busy week last week. Teaching three separate biology courses often confuses me. I think all three courses are going well. The 2nd year Anatomy & Physiology II course is going well. There are 15 well motivated students in that course. The Pathology course is also going well....student, well everyone, loves talking about disease. We have a lot of fun in that course and the students are always asking for more and more gross pictures. Human biology is a first year course. Typically, about 1/3 of the class doesn't do college level work. I'm moving much faster in that course this semester because last semester I missed covering 4-5 chapters. I have to admit that the labs are getting better and more organized.
Head Republican in Charge
Can there be any doubt who is in charge of the Republican party? Rush cannot be criticized by a Republican politician. Looked like Michael Steele was going to have some cahones for a while, calling Rush's show "ugly". But now Steele says "I went back at that tape and I realized words that I said weren't what I was thinking,".....So I wonder what Steele was actually thinking. The Head of the Republican National Committee has to apologize to Rushbo for telling the truth....amazing.

LONDON (ICIS)--European acrylonitrile spot prices have risen by $60-100/tonne in the past week because of global supply tightness and arbitrage opportunities in the US and Asia, sources confirmed on Friday.
European spot prices reached $1,850-1,950/tonne CIF W Europe in the week ending 24 January.
In the same period, Asian spot prices rose a further $30/tonne, the fifth successive week of price rises, to $1,950-1,980/tonne CFR (cost & freight) NE Asia because of high feedstock propylene costs and tight supply. Regional sellers' offers were bullish, hitting $2,000/tonne CFR China and above.
Price offers at this level were mirrored by European exporters.
"Demand is good. As we discussed last week, a lot of requests for Asian product. It's the first time I've seen people want to ship it to China - it must be price availability driven," a producer said.
Several upcoming shutdowns in the region in February are expected to keep the market tight after the Lunar New Year holiday period, some sources said.
"In Europe, it's still firm. There's some turnaround in Asia - a number of shutdowns, so [supply] should stay tight for two months," a European exporter said.
European spot prices have been lagging price rises in other regions in recent weeks, and European spot prices have been the lowest globally throughout 2014.
Nevertheless, with prices in the US and Asia remaining high, European offers below $1,850/tonne have gradually disappeared from the market as sellers look to arbitrage opportunities overseas.
With an absence of competitively-priced imports arriving into Europe, price ideas on the buy-side have also risen.
"I think the trend is up, but I cannot agree everything is fixed at that number [above $1,900/tonne]," a buyer said.
US Gulf prices in the week ending 17 January were in the mid-to-high $1800s FOB (free on board) export.
Tight supply and globally rising prices have caused European sellers to increase their offer levels, with the majority now offering material at $1,900/tonne and above, although a minority continue to see prices in the mifd-$1800s/tonne.
Several sellers said that they would not be willing to offer material at below $1,950/tonne, and up to $2,000/tonne was heard from sellers, but could not be verified on the buy-side.
Nevertheless, low vessel availability from Europe to Asia continues to limit arbitrage opportunities.
"Looking at demand, it's not happening. Let's be honest, Asia's having enquiries but it's not so important. Of course there's activity but not so much. It's not easy to get vessels for Asia," a trader said.
Acrylic fibre demand remains weak because of poor margins and macroeconomic conditions. As a result, domestic activity in Europe is predominantly being covered on a contractual basis.

...and what I think is the funniest line I've read in the news all year...
Those looking for refuge from the predicted Mayan Apocalypse should make alternate plans...
"I'd just like to say I'm sailing with the Rock
and I'll be back like Independence Day with Jesus,
June 6, like the movie, big mothership and all.
I'll be back."
—Executed Serial killer Aileen Wuornos
What makes it even worse is that they don't know the difference between "alternate" and "alternative".
Mayan shmayan - it's all a load of crap.
People actually believe an alien spaceship is going to save them from the Mayan end of the world? Man, these people are stupid. There's no such thing as aliens.
Jean-Pierre will have the blood of all humanity on his hands......I hope he's happy with that.
No they didn't - their calendar is a cycling calendar - it just starts over. That is why it is depicted as a circle - when it "runs out", you start it again.

(Blogs irritate me! Why can't you move pictures around once they are on the blog!!!! This should be down farther but I accidentally deleted it.)
The family and I went to the Teddy Bear picnic. We pigged out on hot dogs and cookies. The kids played games and played on the grass. The kids even got their faces painted. Scotty ended up having some kind of reaction to the paint on his right cheek. He had a sword shaped rash. We built veggie cars for the derby. The car Scott is holding went 10 feet. It beat the winner by an inch. However, we were disqualified because we did not meet the 3 or more wheel rule. When we put a third wheel on it, it fell apart at 4 feet. Oh well. I did my best.
carnival rides at the festival. They ended up getting to ride more
rides than I had planned. Scotty suddenly developed a fear
of rides he has ridden before. Sarah rode her favorite rides...dragon
roller coaster and the viking ship. Scott freaked out on the viking
ship, skipped the roller coaster, and rode the younger rides.
It was still fun!
They actually passed out candy. We had a few problems though. They would give candy to Sarah and not Scott. If they gave them candy, the kids would take one piece and move away while the candy-giver would try and give them more. Or, they would by pass the kids and give candy to the group next to us. Finally, the mother next to us clued in on our frustration and made her kids share with us. Scotty finally became more assertive and went after the people to give him candy. It was actually quite funny!

EducationSophomore Math Major with a Minor in Secondary Education at James Madison University, GPA of 3.9
ExperienceI did a lot of tutoring in my high school teacher cadet class, as well as outside of school with friends and family.
I want to be a tutor because I love helping people learn things, and I believe that it will help a lot with my career, because I want to teach.
HobbiesI love music, listening to it, playing it, and writing it. I play flute, piccolo, and piano, and I write songs for the piano (which I frequently play because I feel it is a good stress-reliever.)_
I have been working at Starbucks for over two years now, and it's definitely an interesting experience but it's helped me learn all about customer service.
I like reading, writing, watching tv, music, hanging out with my friends, and helping people whenever I can.

text: I have had horrible battery life the past few days and at first I thought it was WordFued because the most recent programs I've loaded/changed were Winamp and WordFeud. After searching around a bit I discovered WF used to have battery issues. However after uninstalling it I still had the same problem. Around 20% battery life after 5 hours of being unplugged. I uninstalled Winamp and re-installed WF and here I am 7 hours into the day and only down to 80%. Has anyone else had any problems with Winamp? I googled it but didn't come up with anything. I wasn't even using winamp to play music because I've been rather busy. I did use Wifi sync, but my wifi is off unless I am at home AND need to use it. I normally just leave it off. Thanks.


text: Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., the world's second-largest passenger cruise line, was fined $6.5 million on Oct. 21 for dumping oily bilge water and other pollutants into Alaskan waters. "I find the circumstances of this case truly egregious," U.S. District Judge John Sedwick said in handing down the sentence. "What happened is inexcusable. A company this big, with this many resources, should be able to avoid, to weed out the kind of behavior that occurred here." Sedwick placed the Miami-based cruise line on five years' probation and ordered Royal Caribbean to adhere to stringent environmental oversight, within the company and on every cruise ship. Quarterly reports are to be filed to several federal agencies, including the Coast Guard and the Environmental Protection Agency. The court suspended $3 million of the fine in return for prompt payment of the remainder, a U.S. attorney said later. Jack Williams, president of Royal Caribbean International, appeared before Sedwick to say he agreed with the court. "I have said publicly on a number of occasions since this case unfolded that these acts are inexcusable, they were wrong, and they never should have happened. I truly believe that as I sit here today in this court," Williams said. He said he had talked with many local residents at recent town meetings in the southeast Alaska communities of Skagway, Haines, Juneau and Ketchikan. "The purpose of those meetings for me personally as the president of this company was, first, to let the people of Alaska know how profoundly sorry we are that these incidents took place," Williams said. The second purpose was to begin telling people what the company had done to make sure such behavior would not be tolerated again, he said. Sedwick ordered the cruise line to pay $2 million of its fine to the National Parks Foundation and $1 million to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, for use on environmental projects and initiatives stated in a plea agreement. On condition that those funds are paid immediately and an additional $500,000 goes to the U.S. Treasury, the court agreed to suspend $3 million of its fine, Robert C. Bundy, U.S. attorney for Alaska, said. An attorney for Royal Caribbean said the fine was paid on Oct. 21. In a plea agreement filed in July with six judicial districts, Royal Caribbean, a Liberian corporation, agreed to plead guilty to 21 counts and pay a total criminal fine of $18 million. The criminal conduct involved pollution by Royal Caribbean cruise ships calling on Alaska, California, Florida, New York, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. An investigation into the fleet began in Puerto Rico in 1994 when Coast Guard officials noticed Royal Caribbean's Sovereign of Seas coming into port trailing an oil sheen. Royal Caribbean admitted last year it had routinely dumped oil from its ships, and it agreed to implement a court-supervised program to improve its procedures. Attorney General Janet Reno told a Justice Department news conference in Washington in July that "Royal Caribbean used our nation's waters as its dumping ground even as it promoted itself as an environmentally green company." Reno added, "If people flimflam us, they should expect the consequences."

The Ocean Sport Roamer has set a new standard by which all long range sport-fishing/ sport-cruising vessels are now measured. It is simply the only vessel of its size that has the fuel economy (over 2 mpg) range (over 500 miles) and carrying capacity (over 300 gallons) that enable its owners to enjoy experiences that are not possible in other vessels. "G Force 1" just happens to be an impeccable specimen of the Ocean Sport. All the right decisions were incorporated into this custom build. She has been used lightly and lovingly maintained. You can always buy new but rarely is there an opportunity to buy a used vessel of so close to new quality! I look forward to introducing you to "G Force 1"!

How common is a false blood test early on?

It's easy to find what you are looking for on the internet, but how common is it really to have a false blood test early on?
I have been on bc for 10 years and have NEVER missed a period. It comes the same day every month...except this month. I was supposed to start on the 5th and it never came. I am now 13 days late, have had 6 neg hpt and i took a blood test at the dr yesterday and it came back negative. But my whole body aches, my boobs have random shooting pains, my lower back feels like someone kicked me, i have lots of abdominal pain and cramps in my hips and ovaries.
They also tested my white blood count and that came back normal so its not an infection....
I know there is something wrong, everyone keeps saying "oh youre stressed and making yourself have the symptoms" but im really not stressed, just impatient.
Anyone have any answers for me? Is there a good chance that I still might be pregnant?

After the way we led yesterday's Hot Clicks, we have no choice but to kick off today's edition with this e-mail that we received early this morning from Jay, of Searcy, Ark.: "I just wanted to let you know that I didn't sleep very well last night, actually I tossed and turned because I was very upset. My local affiliate TV station decided not to run the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show last night due to many complaints about the content. I had to shut the TV off and just go to bed. I am not very well rested today, could you please find something to cheer me up?" First of all, Jay, you should move. You shouldn't live in a place that can't understand the importance of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. Second of all, when you realized your affiliate wasn't airing the show, you could've just gone here. Lastly, since we do try to help and honor all requests, our way of cheering you up is with new Marisa Miller pics from Maxim.com.
Hot Clicks favorite Kim Kardashian talks about being part of a celebrity couple. More important (and this is why we are fans), she's going out of her way to dispel rumors that she WON'T do Playboy. ... Fan IQ is introducing us to the UK version of Erin Andrews. ... Uncoached isn't just pitting NFL cheerleaders against NBA dancers. It's breaking down the battle city by city. ... Soccer star Rafael Van der Vaart once got suspended on purpose so he could be at his wife's birthday party. When you see her, you'll know why. ... And Rumors and Rants wants to remind us of some hard-to-believe Adriana Lima news.

Canada - Darreld Rayner, 52, Lake Cowichan, BC, 7 May 2007
Please help in finding answers to the disappearance of a Lake Cowichan man Darreld Rayner. He disappeared May 7, 2007 and has not been seen since. Darreld was 52 when he went missing. He was a father and a husband, he was very pro-union and very vocal about important key forestry issues facing BC today. He was a long time employee of the Youbou saw mill before it shut down. You still find articles and letters online still today written by Darreld Rayner. Darreld was an active member of the Youbou Timberless Society. But the question still remains, how does a guy go missing on a walk? How did he just vanish into thin air?
Below is a copy of the RCMP Press Release from 2007.
Search For Missing Hiker Continues
LAKE COWICHAN, B.C., May 11, 2007- Searchers are on day five of a search for a missing hiker near Lake Cowichan.
Lake Cowichan RCMP continue to work with Search & Rescue as well as volunteers in an attempt to locate Darreld Rayner, a 52 year old Lake Cowichan man who went missing on May 07, 2007. Mr. Rayner is an experienced hiker that went for his usual hike approximately two miles Southwest of Lake Cowichan on the Fairservice Mainline, a logging road.
Cowichan Valley Search and Rescue has had the assistance of Saltspring Island Search and Rescue as well as searchers from Nanaimo, Ladysmith, Victoria and volunteers from Shure Span. The RCMP have assisted in the search with members of the Lake Cowichan Detachment, two dog handlers and the RCMP Helicopter. Searchers and volunteers have worked tirelessly both in the wooded area and by going door to door distributing missing posters and asking residents in the area to check their property for anything that may be suspicious. On Thursday, May 10, 2007 there were over 100 Search and Rescue personnel on the ground and at the end of the day, the combined total of search hours for the week was approximately 2600 hours.
Searchers are continuing to follow up on any possibilities and the status of the search will be determined at days end.

Here is another article about Rayner. This one was about a Chinesse Grave Stie that Darreld was bringing to light out at the former Youbou Mill Site.
Chinesse Grave Site
In March 2002, the ASBC-NB was contacted by Darreld Rayner, concerned citizen and member of the Youbou Timberless Society, about the possible existence of Chinese graves on the former Youbou Mill site near Youbou on southern Vancouver Island. His concern was that the dismantling of the Youbou mill and the construction of a go-kart track might threaten the graves, and alluded to the existence of many other gravesites near the property.
Source info:
There is also a video that has been made to help aid in the search for answers in the disappearance of Darreld Rayner.

response WmHersey
Good point but no Grizzlies on Vancouver Island, just black bears, cougar go for the jugular and the neck area for a kill it would be messy, not only that but if he had a small dog with him the cougar would make a meal out of the dog first and run off with it up a tree or off in the woods. And a bear or Cougar can only drag so far.
Keep in mind the RCMP Press Release is based on what the RCMP knew at the time. The question is did he ever leave his home? Was the coffee cup and dog a lead in the wrong direction? What witnesses are there that saw Darreld alive that day period? Did anyone actually see him on the trails or Fair Service Main.
over 2600 hundred search hours went in all around the bush from where Darreld lived into the bush near and around Fair Service Logging Road.
I really doubt Darreld was lost in the woods. Especially with the large search area all around there for several kilometers, something would have been found if it was bear or cougar, cougars don't eat clothes or shoes, neither do bears.
I have hiked that same area and the odds of seeing a cougar during the day time are very nill. More likely to see a black bear, just yell at them and they take off running. Cougars are more active at night. Even if he was mauled or hurt by animals there would be some signs of it somewhere. Especially with all the bush that was searched.
Not just 2600 hours of searching but helicopter, two dog handlers, lots of volunteers combing kilometers after kilometer of bush. Nothing! The searchers line up and comb the bush, nothing, nothing has been found.
It sounds to me that you suspect foul play. Are you concerned that perhaps there was some sort of political concern because of his activism?

I am extremely suspicious Darreld Rayner was the victim of foul play.
Here is a question for all of you, how much is someones life worth? Could there be motive if millions of dollars were at stake?
Let me ask all of you something, have you ever heard of a corrupt politician (S) before?
Will people do strange things for a large amount of money???????

Of course they will, but if these are people with connections, it would be extremely hard to solve. It's happened before.
Did you know Darreld?

Yes it could make it hard to solve.

Dude, I don't think that's what we want to do at all. Peyton has uncanny accuracy and the last thing you want him to do is have all day to throw the ball. He'll beat you all day. CBs can't cover WRs that long, they would break off their route and he'd make us pay big time.
The way to beat Manning IMO is to get strong pressure up the middle of the pocket, although easier said than done because of Saturday being a great Center. He's too quick with the ball to rush him from the outside. Revis is going to be the biggest reason why we get pressure on Manning, because he's going to be all over Wayne. Make no mistake, Peyton will find his other receivers. This is going to be all about confusing him with the coverages.
There was a very good article about Peyton Manning vs Rex Ryan. Supposedly Peyton studies so much that he knows and has pretty much seen it all. Belichick confused the hell out of him one time just by switching the CB and Safety, which had Manning frustrated all day because he wasn't prepared for it and thus didn't know what to do. To me that seems like a guy that's book smart but not street smart. A genius with no common sense. Brett Favre would be the opposite of this. Both geniuses at the game, one studies like crazy and the other is just a gamer that improvises better than any QB to play the game.
The way we beat Manning is gonna be to show him looks he's not prepared for. I believe Rex will throw the kitchen sink at him. There will be nothing left in our arsenal after this game, you can bank on that. Although Rex has said that they've held back on a lot of stuff because the defense wasn't ready for it. So maybe now they are ready which would be great because it would be plays that no body has seen yet which bodes well for us.
Long story short, the best way to beat a QB will always be to get pressure on him. Make them uncomfortable, hit them often, keep them out of a rhythm. That will force turnovers and incompletions and a stalled offense. 3rd and long is the key for us, once we get a team in 3rd and long our defense is sickening.

Picture: Jennifer Ellison World premiere of 'Street of Dreams Musical' afterparty held at The Radisson Hotel - Arrivals Manchester, England - 10.05.12
British pop star Jennifer Ellison has rescued a little girl from being crushed to death by an elephant.
The BYE BYE BOY star, 21, was holidaying in Thailand when STACEY YOUNG, four, fell under an elephant during a tourist ride but was scooped up by Ellison, who jumped in the animal's path.
A witness says, "Stacey's mum and dad were obviously extremely grateful and offered to buy her a meal. When Jennifer politely declined, they kept insisting on some kind of reward, but she wanted to play the whole thing down.
"It was an amazing thing that she did. The child could have easily been killed. You could tell she was a trained dancer by the way she moved."19/08/2004 02:44

Multiphase Porous Media Flow - Convergence Issues
System Description:
Two phase solid-gas flow. The sold being sand particles and the gas is air. Air is injected through a nozzle that entrains the sand particles up a ramp and the mixture hits a filter. The filter ideally filters out the sand particles which drop into a collection area while the air exits the system. A picture of this system can be seen below:
The nozzle is the square portion in the blue region on the left hand side. The end of the rectangle is the velocity inlet. The green line at the top right is where my porous media zone is (No the exact geometry used, but had a picture on hand). The pink is the sand initially and the blue is the air initially.
FLUENT Model Details:
Relative Velocity Resistance Formulation
Porosity: 0.8
Under Relaxation Factors
I have solved this case without the porous media zone and just using a pressure outlet. My issue was that particulate was flowing out of the outlet and not being collected as desired. The case runs fine until the Volume Fraction becomes anything but 1 (all air) at the porous media zone. An example of the residuals up until this point is shown below:
The volume fraction of air at this point is shown below. The rectangle section at the top right is my porous media zone:
Then I get to this point:
And the residuals begin to flat line or really struggle to converge.
What has been tried to remedy the problem:
I did get it converging for a little while but then this happened:
And it diverged very soon after.
Any ideas on what I can try? Do all of my settings look correct?
I have still been working at this to no avail. I doubt my values for the viscous and inertial resistance though. I used a orifice style flow bench to find the pressure drop versus velocity curve. I then fit the curve with a quadratic function and used the coefficients to solve for alpha and C2. However, I'm unfamiliar with "typical" values and am not sure that it is right. Here is my data and the plot. The filter is just a coffee filter so I wouldn't expect it to be too restrictive.
wats the boundary condition imposed on the filter material. u need to create a bc such that only air passes through and sand is retained
to selectively transport one component u will have to write UDF
That is one method, but a porous media zone should work as well as you can apply different resistances to each phase. Therefore I apply a large viscous and intertial resistance to the solid phase to prevent it from passing through the porous zone.
I did manage to get the problem to converge and prevent the solid phase from flowing through the porous zone. I removed the visous resistance for air as this should not really be a factor.
It is working great, but I have it currently set as a variable time step and to converge it is stepping at 1e-8 seconds. As you can imagine with about 200 iterations per time step this solution is taking a LONG time.
Does anyone have any hints/tips to speed up convergence in this case?

Uganda - Gorillas and Shoebills
23 June - 8 July 2018
Uganda is the jewel in the crown of East Africa with some of the best remaining forest in Africa and some truly remarkable birdwatching. we'll search for enigmatic Shoebill on the fringes of Lake Victoria and seek out White-cbacked Night Heron on the papyrus-fringed lakeshore of Lake Mburo National Park. The wonderful Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is a magical place of mists, hanging mosses and luxuriant vegetation and it is also where we'll see some of the rarest and most exotic birds of the trip. However, it will probably be a mammal that is uppermost in people's minds here. Over half the world's population of Mountain Gorillas can be found in this forest and during our stay there will be the option to take part in a guided trek to search for a group of these magnificent animals. The tour is led by Brian Finch.
St. Lucia and St Vincent
4 - 14 February with Stuart Elsom
This relaxed tour to a tropical paradise is the perfect antidote to the long British winter. A small but beautiful island, St Lucia epitomises everyone's image of the Caribbean - a sun-drenched tropical island fringed with beautiful coves and hidden beaches. We'll visit all the important bird areas, and also visit the nearby island of St Vincent, home to its own beautiful endemic parrot and the delightful Whistling Warbler. This tour will give us some much sought-after endemics including St Lucia Parrot and St Lucia Warbler (above) and near endemics such as Lesser Antillean Bullfinch and Purple-throated Carib, whilst also allowing us to enjoy the islands comfort and typically warm Caribbean hospitality.
A view of the Pitons on St. Lucia
Guatemala: Birding amongst the forests and Mayan ruins
6 - 15/18 April 2018 with Luke Seitz
The highlands of Guatemala's Pacific slope are famous worldwide for three birds: the improbable-looking Pink-headed Warbler, the bizarre and critically endangered Horned Guan and the stunning Goldman's Warbler (pictured above), soon to be split as Guatemala's only true endemic. Less well known are the astonishing concentrations of boreal migrants that share these cool montane forests with a vast selection of Central American specialities and we'll take plenty of time to enjoy fully the diversity of the region's birdlife and to appreciate the charm of baroque Antigua. Our short Tikal Extension takes us even further back in time and into tropical lowland habitats with a completely new suite of birds. Watching Ocellated Turkeys, parrots and perhaps even the local pair of Orange-breasted Falcons among the ruins of one of the greatest cities ever built in the New World is an experience no birder should miss.
Great Birding Great Value Great Fun
