Advice for Writing a YA Dystopian Trilogy (If You Must)
Have you ever thought about writing a YA dystopian novel*? No? Why not? It's the hottest trend in YA publishing. I figured I'd help you out by sharing some of the secrets to writing a YA dystopia. After reading dozens of novels in the genre, I'm something of an expert. Using the trends and patterns I've noticed, I've come up with a few tips on how to make sure your future novel follows the rules and tropes!
The First Book: Hooking Your Readers
Okay. So. You're in on this whole writing a YA dystopia thing. You've followed my advice and want to pen the next Hunger Games. Get used to that comparison, because EVERY YA dystopia is marketed at "the next Hunger Games." First things first — your book cannot be a single, standalone book. That excellent plot you've got cooked up in your head? Go ahead and divide it into thirds. That's right! You're writing a trilogy!
This first book is all about world building. The first half should introduce readers to your oppressive government. The people should be poor. And unhappy. Once you've decided how poor and unhappy, make them even MORE poor and MORE unhappy. This is YA dystopia. They can never be too poor or too unhappy. The people should also be divided into some sort of arbitrary groups, which makes them even more poor and more unhappy.
After you've successfully set the stage by building a miserable, miserable world, there should be some sort of sorting, reaping, selection, testing, or matching ceremony. The protagonist is coming of age, and it's time to get her out of her miserable world and send her to an even more miserable world. Make your protagonist not care that she's leaving because she has an absent or missing parent. Bonus point if the parent mysteriously "disappeared" and everyone has written the parent off as dead (we'll deal with that in book 3).
While the questionably kick-ass protagonist off coming of age, she also must have an "awakening" involving this government, realizing the government is corrupt. The previously infalliable government is, in fact, not perfect. And, GASP, they don't have the best interest of their people at heart. But don't tell too much too soon. Soften it all a bit by distracting readers with a good love triangle. Readers love a good love triangle. Force the protogonist to have feelings for both the hometown boy AND a rugged, yet troubled, boy from the wilds. Be incredibly biased in your writing toward one or the other so that clever readers can already know which one the protagonist will settle on by book three (hint: it's the boy from the wilds. It's always the boy from the wilds).
Wrap the book up nicely, but leave things wide open for the bigger story arc of the trilogy.
The Second Book: A Slow, Boring Quest
Yes! Book one of your trilogy was a success! The writing wasn't stellar, but your audience was hooked. It's time for the second installment. All that world building? Yeah, forget that…time to have your characters escape. Your protagonist needs to run away and get lost in the wilderness. She should find a rebel group in the wilderness. A compound of sorts. She'll learn what life is like without that crazy, oppressive government breathing down her back all the time. Ah! Freedom!
But wait. You need a shocking plot twist: the leadership in the rebel compound is JUST AS CORRUPT as the society the protagonist has escaped from! This is also a great time to mess with that love triangle. Have your character flip-flop love interests as much as possible. Maybe she's with one, but can't stop thinking about the other. Yeah. Have her do that, readers love that. Make this book pretty boring and virtually plotless. The characters should just roam around a lot and wait.
Only one thing can save this book, and it's the only thing you'll need: a cliffhanger. Since this book probably sucks, you're going to need a cliffhanger to convince your audience to pay $16.99 for the next installment.
The Third Book: Viva Le Revolucion!
This is the book where all the rules GO OUT THE WINDOW. Dead characters come back. Wait, what? Is this a soap opera? Yes. At this point it is. Remember that dead parent in book 1? Time to bring him or her back. Make sure the reunion is lathered in distrust and resentment.
This is also the point where you should make your characters return from the wilderness. It's time fight the man! Take down some oppressive dudes! Stage a rebellion! Chaos! Espionage! Anything goes!
It is at this point when the protagonist MUST become separated from the love interest. This is mandatory. Even better if we think the love interest is dead. Remember, this is basically a soap opera. But don't keep them seperated for long. The separation reinforces ALL THE FEELINGS these two have for each other. Love triangle, smlove triangle. This lady has made her choice. Whew. Reunite with said love interest for some kissing, with a fierce battle in the background. Bonus points for every important, beloved character who dies in this scene.
Okay, so it's time to bring this sucker to a close. You've got two possible endings: (1) We are all scarred, but we made it through! or (2) End the trilogy in the middle of everything, because the readers should make up their own damn ending.
What Are You Waiting For?
Get writing! I've given you the rules and sacred secrets of the genre. Governments. Love triangles. Cliff hangers. It all has to be there. Just follow what everyone else has done and cross your fingers for a movie deal.
Because, let's be honest, even if you do all of these things, I'll still read your book. And so will everyone else.
What are your favorite "tropes" of dystopian fiction? Can you recommend a book that successfully deifies these tropes?
*If I offend any YA dystopian authors in this post, I'm sorry. This is a sarcastic humor article aimed at poking fun at a genre that I happen to love. No single book does all of these things. In fact, all of the books pictured offer delightful twists and are absolutely worth a read!

The United States is in the midst of a gun violence epidemic. Mass shootings have taken place in elementary schools, in houses of worship and in movie theaters. They make headlines with disturbing regularity and shock our national conscience each time they strike.
But in between these exhaustively reported acts, however, a hundred lives are lost every day to less publicized acts of violence that could have been prevented. The epidemic of senseless gun violence has necessitated mandatory school shooter drills, moved some parents to send their children to school with bulletproof backpacks, and forced houses of worship to hire security guards.
What has our world come to?
The leadership of the National Rifle Association blindly and vigorously blocks common-sense gun reform. Just look at what the organization desperately tried to block in New York this year alone. It opposed comprehensive background checks, "red flag" laws to keep guns out of the hands of individuals exhibiting threatening behavior, and banning bump stocks, which sacrifice accuracy in order to spit out bullets faster.
The bump stock is an attachment that makes it possible for a semi-automatic to mimic the firing motion of fully automatic weapons, firing 400 to 500 rounds per minute. It was infamously used in the Las Vegas concert shooting, and allowed the shooter in that massacre to shoot more than 500 people. He took 58 lives in just minutes.
He bought the bump stock where he lived, on the internet, without a permit, background check or waiting period, for $90.
Instead of supporting common-sense laws, the NRA fights them tooth and nail. It wants to roll back progress we've made, and it has brought Washington to a standstill when it comes to guns. Its deep-pocketed fundraising blocks safety reforms that Americans overwhelming support.
Eighty-nine percent of Americans favor expanded background checks for gun purchasers. Do you know who doesn't? The NRA. Instead, it blocks safeguards from the local level to the federal level.
I disagree with its obstructionism.
That's why I introduced a bill last week to ban gun raffles in New York. We need fewer weapons of war on the street, not more. We shouldn't be raffling off firearms or parts for an AR-15. An AR-15, the semiautomatic weapon that was used in the Sandy Hook (school), Parkland (school), Las Vegas (concert), Pittsburgh (synagogue) and Texas (church) shootings. We shouldn't be celebrating these deadly firearms.
These are weapons of war that were originally intended for military use. They have no place on our streets. In fact, just last week, firearms manufacturer Colt announced that it would suspend production of its popular AR-15 semi-automatic, assault-style rifle for the civilian market. Instead, it said, it would focus on selling it to the military and to law enforcement.
If a major gun manufacturer agrees that we need to get weapons of war off our streets, why doesn't the NRA agree?
If you can't raffle off a bottle of wine, why should you be able to raffle off a weapon of war?
I support the Second Amendment. I believe in the right to bear arms. What I do not believe in is an individual amassing a military-size cache of firearms. This is insensible, immoral and unnecessary.
When I ran for State Senate, I promised to address the plague of gun violence in the U.S. I was a staunch supporter of expanded background checks, a red flag law and banning bump stock. These common-sense bills overwhelmingly passed the State Legislature this year, and are now law.
Young people across the country have mobilized to demand better from our government. They are marching, protesting and speaking up to demand the safety of them and their peers. They have helped lead the way to change in Albany.
But we can't stop. Illegal firearms continue to filter into New York from other states with weak gun safety laws. We've made great strides in Albany, but we need comprehensive gun safety laws nationally to stem gun violence. We need Congress to act, but again they're engaged in delay tactics, paid for by the NRA, and can't even agree among themselves about which safety measures to support.
Until they do, New York will continue to lead the nation with reforms that protect our children and our community. That includes ending gun raffles once and for all. It's time to get weapons of war off of our streets.
Jim Gaughran is the state senator representing the 5th District.

Working on the second draft of my new genealogical mystery novel "A Grave Secret" Hoping to have it published this year as a second in the Janie Riley series.

This time Janie flies to the most haunted village in Kent England to search for her 4th great grandparents, John and Susanna Philpott. What will she stumble on this time? Ghosts? Murders?
Sorry but you'll have to read the book to find out!

Training Methods
Informational training methods are basically used to teach facts and figures and for developing a change in attitude. There is a one way communication between the trainer and the trainee that involves the transfer of information without many deliberations. New policies, programs, code of conduct are transferred using informational training methods.
Lectures, audio visuals, self directed learning (SDL) methods, programmed instruction (PI) and independent study are some of the informational training methods that will be briefly described in the article.
The lecture based methodology is one of the simplest and the perhaps the oldest technique of training. It is generally used to pass on new knowledge and to present some introductory material or an ice breaker. This method is often combined with audio visual, group discussions now days to make it more effective and interesting. One of the most important benefits of this training method is the low cost involved not only in terms of the training content but also that it can used with an audience of large size. The biggest limitation is that the audience becomes passive and the session becomes dull and there is a poor transfer of information.
Audio / Visuals
It is the one of the most effective means of conducting training programs and the most used these days. It is used essentially to present new knowledge to the audience and boost the morale. There are lots of tools available in this training method; for example, the trainer has the freedom to use slides, movies, video clips, flip charts, chalkboards etc. Videoconferencing is picking up fast. Lots of training programs also called as webinars are conducted with geographically dispersed populations. The advantage over lecture based training is that it allows for replays and brings in a lot of versatility to the training program.
Independent Study
This is a training method that is to transfer knowledge and for updating on information, knowledge and facts on a continuous basis. The trainee is free to complete the course of the training at his own pace. This method saves a lot of cost by minimising the man-day of training and also the cost of development. Since it is more of research and continuous education based, a library or resource department has to be developed for the same. Furthermore the training material has to be customised to individual needs.
One of the greatest drawbacks is that the trainee cannot be evaluated continually for a longer period of time without the intervention of the trainer and that the level of motivation goes down after a certain period of time. It is therefore not applicable to all types of jobs.
Programmed Instruction
Programmed instruction is a training methodology that is often used to prepare individuals for a training program by bringing them at the same level. Like independent study it also allows the trainees to go at their own pace and a quick feedback. It is however expensive to develop and may not necessarily result in an increase in the performance at work.
Most of the training programs combine any or all of these for effective training. In addition, there are lots of other experiential training methods that may be used, which will be discussed in other write ups.

BANGKOK, MARCH 2012: AIMST University, Faculty of Medicine students competed with 40 teams from 24 Universities representing 10 countries in an international quiz competition in Microbiology, Parasitology and Immunology.
The first place was secured by Mahidol University, Thailand, the first and second runners up being Khon Kaen University Thailand and AIMST University Malaysia respectively. The AIMST's team progressed steadily from MCQ-SAQ rounds, spotters, lab diagnosis and clinical diagnosis stations to the final round.
Apart from academics exposure it was an opportunity for bonding with other university participants. National University Singapore (NUS), International Medical University Malaysia (IMU), West Visayas State University Philippines, Osaka Medical University Japan, Chinese University of Hong Kong, Peking Medical University China were among those participating.
The Acting Vice-Chancellor of AIMST, Prof. Dr. Harcharan Singh Sidhu said "more universities should participate in such quizzes as it will be one way of benchmarking the students with other universities. It also exposes students to different curricula and helps students to network and have fun. AIMST strongly recommends such interactions as it is a learning and maturing process for students. Early next year AIMST will be hosting again the 2nd International Preclinical Quiz and hope that more medical universities both local and international will participate, after all these students will have to work as a team upon graduation one day"

18th May 2015 – Success for Team Honda Racing at Round 2 of the Australasian Superbike Championship this weekend with #3 Troy Herfoss maintaining his points lead in style and #2 Jamie Stauffer making a conclusive comeback from injury to finish 2nd overall on both days.
#2 Jamie Stauffer and #3 Troy Herfoss
The dynamic duo gave loyal Honda fans much to cheer about and with such a competitive field of racers there was never a dull moment. The Hondas of Herfoss and Stauffer qualified well on Friday to start from P2 and P3 on the grid respectively going into Saturday's FX-Superbike races.
The racing was close all weekend on the unforgiving Mallala circuit and Herfoss looked set to win the first race of the event, leading comfortably for much of the race, until on lap 8 he ran wide and had to settle for 3rd place behind team mate Stauffer in 2nd.
Stauffer won Race 2 on Saturday and put any questions about his return from injury to bed. He was back. Herfoss finished Race 2 in 4th place, recording the fastest lap of the race, a 1:06.885 sec. The final race on Saturday saw Herfoss finish a close 2nd recording the fastest lap of the race again, a 1:06.787 sec on the penultimate lap. Stauffer finished in 4th place.
After a successful day of racing to open Round 2 of the ASC, Stauffer would line up in P2 and Herfoss in P3 on the grid for Sunday's Swann Insurance Superbike program.
Sunday's racing was equally as exciting, but even more successful for Team Honda Racing with #3 Herfoss and #2 Stauffer winning a race apiece.
Race 1 saw Herfoss lead off the start line, but an early pass from Maxwell saw him battling for the win. Herfoss reclaimed the lead in the latter stages of the race only to run wide and drop back to 4th across the line. Stauffer finished in 5th place.
Fresh tyres for both CBR1000RR SPs in Race 2 changed the outlook completely and both Honda riders made the most of it with Herfoss leading off the start line and Stauffer right behind him. The Hondas were 1 and 2 for most of Race 2 and Herfoss took the win in style. A late pass by Jones meant Stauffer had to settle for 3rd place, but still recorded the fastest lap of the race, a 1:06.503 sec.
The final race of the day belonged to #2 Jamie Stauffer who led from start to finish with Herfoss finishing in 4th place.
An action-packed weekend of racing culminated in Troy Herfoss maintaining his championship lead in both the FX-Superbike championship and the Swann Series. Herfoss is pleased with the final result, saying "Overall I had a good weekend and to hold on to the championship lead heading into Round 3 is great although there is still a lot of work to be done. The racing this weekend was tight and this circuit definitely doesn't leave any room for error. I'm really happy with where we are headed with the bike and want to thank Shaun and Glenn for the hard work they are putting in to keep us on top. I am really looking forward to Round 3 at Sydney Motorsport Park being my home track and we'll see if we can extend our lead in the championship."
Stauffer's return from injury and months off the bike was most impressive and his efforts have provided valuable points heading into Round 3. "I'm really happy with my weekend given the amount of time I've been off the bike. I have been working really hard during my recovery to make sure I could come back as close to 100% as possible and I really think I couldn't have done any more this weekend. To do 6 races over the weekend, on a circuit that is extremely physical and come away 2nd overall on both days is a good outcome. Obviously, I would rather be winning every race, but realistically I am happy with where I stand."
Also pleased with the weekend's results is Team Principal, Paul Free. "I'm really please with our team and the results this weekend. Both riders were extremely competitive all weekend and this circuit really does separate the men from the boys being so technically and physically demanding. The lap times of both Hondas were consistent and fast and I think we showed that it isn't always about power in racing. Jamie has proven his commitment to winning this weekend by coming back stronger than ever after his injury and Troy is taking the team into Round 3 with the championship lead after another strong performance. We have a fantastic team this year, they are a strong, cohesive unit and the Honda CBR1000RR SP is an exceptional package to work with. I can't wait to get the guys back out on track in Sydney for Round 3."

I slept really badly, and as a result I'm feeling rubbish this morning. No amount of coffee seems to be able to wake me up and I just feel like hiding all day - maybe that is what I will do LOL... Nightmares leave me feeling shaken up all day and not a very happy person, and right now I'm in run and hide mode... Either that or revert back to my childlike ways hehe...
I reach out to my blog in an attempt to talk things through and feel better, but for some reason even this isn't working, so maybe a distraction technique... How about a Look-of-the-Day?!
This is one of those somewhat kid-like but grown up versions of kid-like outfits, that started with a simple but awesome top.
I found the Prue Crop Top a this month's round of anyBody from one of my favourite stores, JACKALOPE! They had a variety of colours, with and without patterns, but seriously how could anyone resist "Oh for fox sake!" I then added just a little more foxiness in the form of this adorable Peaches plushie from The Stars That Laugh Gacha Collection - available until April 30th at Gacha Guardians just so you know - and dressed accordingly adorably!!
That was all it took, well that and a magical location like one of the sets at WHOLE WHEAT and voilà, look-of-the-day and a somewhat more relaxed Rudh!
What is she wearing;
Hair: TRUTH - Kyoko in Reds
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2
Gum: [Since1975] - Bubble Gum in GlitterPink
Top: JACKALOPE - Prue Crop in White Foxsake (Available until April 31st at anyBody)
Shorts: MUKA - Iggy
Toy: Peaches - The Stars That Laugh Gacha Item in GOTG Hanging Fox (Available until April 30th at Gacha Guardians)
Shoes: REIGN - Thigh High Sneakers in Black

Bomb Threat Coverage
KOMU has a book with all of the schools in the state of Missouri, and is responsible for giving out emergency information about these schools, such as closings and early dismissals. But this week, we're talking about bomb threats, and why you won't see coverage of most school bomb threats on KOMU news.
One viewer wanted to know, "Why was there no story on the bomb threat that happened at Hickman High School? I went around on the Internet and saw that all of the Columbia newspapers, the other Columbia TV station and even the Jefferson City TV station both reported it. Why did KOMU have nothing on it?"
KOMU news director Stacey Woelfel explained the station's policy regarding such issues.
"We had nothing on it because a bomb threat is not news. It's really just an attempt to get attention or cause a stir and so we don't cover that. In all the year's I've been doing this, there's only been one threat that turned out to be a real bomb and it wasn't at a school," he said.
The Radio Television News Director's Association (RTNDA) has issued guidelines for news stations to use when covering bomb threats. According to RTNDA, reporting a false threat could lead to copycat threats, and raise the public's level of insecurity when it is not warranted. Repeated broadcasting of bomb hoaxes can have the effect of "crying wolf," with the public becoming less responsive when actual danger arises.

Cooking Up a Storm
A Covert Affair: Julia Child and Paul Child in the OSS
Jennet Conant, granddaughter of the former president of Harvard, has made a specialty of the World War II period. Her first book, Tuxedo Park (2002), gives an engrossing account of the brilliant amateur scientist and millionaire Alfred Lee Loomis, who was one of the inventors of radar, helped found the important Rad Lab at MIT, and attracted to his estate in Tuxedo Park distinguished scientists, including Vannevar Bush, Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Enrico Fermi, and Albert Einstein. In 109 East Palace (2005), Conant insightfully describes the very human dynamics of the community Robert Oppenheimer gathered around him at Los Alamos. And in The Irregulars (2008), she recounts the clandestine activities of libidinous Roald Dahl and the ring of British spies in Washington during the early 1940s, who strove to advance England's cause.
In each of these works, Conant concentrates on a prominent person in order to evoke an entire group and its role in history. In her new book, however, Julia and Paul Child are tangential rather than central to the story she wishes to tell about the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) during the war and about the postwar scourge of McCarthyism. Both of the Childs served in the OSS, and Paul was investigated by the FBI in the mid-1950s; yet despite her book's title, they are not its chief characters but have essentially ancillary though important parts. The figure at the center of A Covert Affair—a leftist socialite from San Francisco—is much less well known and far less likely to sell books.
The OSS was established by President Roosevelt in June 1942, at the urging of his friend the New York lawyer William J. Donovan, who was appointed as its chief after he persuaded FDR that the United States needed a spy organization like England's. Handsome, self-assured, and a decorated hero from World War I, Bill Donovan staffed the new agency with intellectuals, high-powered New York lawyers, attractive, socialite young women, and people with artistic or other creative talents; Ivy League graduates were favored, and Harvard professors seemed to have a special entrée. (When I arrived at Harvard as a freshman in 1950, a number of professors had recently returned from the war, and I was intrigued to learn that they almost invariably had served in the OSS.) Both Paul Child and Julia McWilliams joined the OSS very early on, Paul as a designer of maps, charts, diagrams, and war rooms, and Julia as a lowly file clerk. After a brief initial period in Washington they were each assigned to posts in Southeast Asia, where they both ended up in what was then called Ceylon.
Lord Mountbatten, Supreme Commander of the South East Asia Command, had established his headquarters in the elegant King's Pavilion high in the Ceylonese hill town of…

When you search an online encyclopedia, you are searching a compendium of information on just about everything. A compendium is a comprehensive collection of something.
You can also use the word compendium to describe a collection of written works. If you gather all of the anecdotes your parents and grandparents have told you into a book, you'll have created a compendium of family stories. The plural of compendium is either compendiums or compendia.

TURIN, Italy — Looking for something more than an urban saunter? Because of its location and the vastness of Italy's train network, Milan is an excellent launching point for other treks.
To the north, the lakeside villages of charming Como beckon. To the northeast, Bergamo, built into a hillside, offers expansive views and old-country atmosphere.
Both are within an hour's train ride, as is Turin. This northwest city has one other attribute: It's your turnstile to the Alps.
Folks come for 7- to-10-day hikes in the Alps, but you can get a delicious taste of it in one day.
Roberto Calcagno of Trekking Alps can tailor a hike to a group's abilities and desires in the off-season. One recommended excursion for the stout hiker is a day trip up to Cima dei Quattro Denti, in Susa Valley.
On a glorious late fall day last November, the snow-packed French Alps and Italian Alps offered brilliant white brackets to our ridgeline of trees yielding the final colors of the season.
At its apex, we clamber along rocky outcroppings and limestone pinnacles, stuck into the ridge as if Jupiter himself had speared them into the mountainside.
From the ridge, a gorge to the north spills milky roiling waters across boulders. Above, a golden eagle circles, then plummets 600 feet, a guided missile of feathers and fearlessness, before pulling out into a glide. She, strikingly, ascends and once again repeats her plummet, as if a game for our spectating pleasure.
Here, the sun warms us even as it fails to penetrate the clouds encasing the valley and villages below. Across the valley, on the range of mountains to the south, a slight slip of a moon hovers, two fingers above the white snowtop.
We return down a narrow ridge, tunneling through yellow and orange birch glades, the slanting sun turning gold the chestnut leaves beyond. Unsheathed chestnuts and crinkly oak leaves crumble with each footfall.

When you have found your "forever home", the last thing you need are nasty surprises that could trip you up at the last minute. Failure to spot and respond to these could spell financial disaster and a possible lifetime of regret. Suzanne Bastick, Senior Chartered Legal Executive, reveals the mysterious world of Property Searches – and shows why they are so important.
Property searches cover a number of different searches offered by Local Government, Government Agencies, utilities and commercial organisations. An important part of my job as a property lawyer is to check and flag up any information that may restrict your use and, ultimately, enjoyment of your home. It is not often fully understood what they all mean, but with everything from local financial charges to environmental risks, it is vital to spend time on them so you do not make a costly mistake.
Let's take a look at the main ones in turn:
Local Authority Searches
Local councils maintain a large amount of data relating to properties in their area and searches of these records (often called "Local Searches") provide fundamental information, useful to the home buyer.
The Local Authority Search is made of two parts -. The Local Land Charges search (LLC1) and Enquiries of the Local Authority (CON29). The LLC1 is a search of a register that the local authority is bound by law to maintain. The search will reveal any entries kept by the council under the following headings, among others:
- Conditional planning permissions or restrictions on permitted development (so-called Article 4 directions). There may also be orders for revoking or amending planning permission previously granted.
- Tree preservation orders
- Financial charges (eg. for nearby utility networks or adoption of estate roads)
- Compulsory purchase orders
- Smoke control orders
However, it does not show all the information available. The CON29 adds further detail and can include the following:
- Planning applications that have been made, including those that have been refused.
- Proposed tree preservation orders
- Information on whether roads serving the property are maintained publicly.
- Proposed new roads/railways within 200m of the property.
- Proposed enforcement and stop notices, and also information on whether existing notices have been complied with.
- Proposed new road schemes, parking restrictions, stopping up of roads or footpaths, setting out of road humps outside or near the property etc.
- Proposed compulsory purchase orders
- Records of any notices in relation to the clean-up of contaminated land.
Depending on the circumstances, further optional questions (known as Part II enquiries) may also be asked. You will be bound by all matters affecting the property when you complete the transaction, so it is important to ensure that all possible issues are revealed and explained prior to the exchange of contracts.
A key question in the CON29 asks about Rights of Way, which can be a major source of disputes. The singer Madonna brought a high profile case where she felt her human rights had been infringed by ramblers exercising their right to roam on designated rights of way through her land.
The Countryside and Rights of Way Act is a powerful piece of legislation and can override freehold interests in terms of access, so it is essential such risks are discussed before you commit to a purchase.
Land Registry Title
The Land Registry holds the legal evidence of title to about 85% of land and property in England and Wales. Registration has been compulsory since about the mid-1980s, so eventually all land and property will become registered.
A title plan shows, usually by red edging, the general extent of the property registered under the title number shown. Title plans are prepared on the latest Ordnance Survey map available at the time of registration, which can be quite old. The plan does not normally show who owns boundary features, such as fences and hedges.
The title register contains the details relating to the property including:
- Details of the property and any rights that may benefit
- Who owns the property and restrictions on how they use it
- Any mortgages or interests that may adversely affect it.
Land Registry searches are carried out after exchange of contracts and prior to completion to ensure any changes made since the title was investigated on your behalf at the outset are spotted and dealt with before you take ownership of the property.
Drainage and Water Enquiries
The water authorities of England and Wales, such as Southern Water, are owners and guardians of public water and sewer networks.
The drainage search includes plans showing all our sewer and water assets near the property, whether it is connected to sewers, where they are, who owns them and who bills you. The report also identifies if there are any problems with water pressure and hardness, and whether there is a water meter installed.
Environmental Searches
Our climate is changing and the risks from flooding have become widely known and are widespread. Some 5 million properties are at risk, according to the Environment Agency, whether from rivers, the sea or from surface water when heavy rainstorm deluges. Flood risk matters as it could affect your ability to get insurance and a mortgage.
Cleaning up after a flood can also take many months of disruption and misery. It is therefore an essential part of the property search process, to ensure your peace of mind.
Solicitors are also required to advise property buyers about the risks from contaminated land. Our long industrial history means there are many thousands of sites that were developed on that had very few checks on the land quality before construction.
Gas works, tanneries and old factories have all used heavy metals that have caused pollution into the soils that can linger for decades. There have been many high profile examples of chemicals poisoning back gardens, followed by lengthy clean-ups that have caused disruption and uncertainty over who pays. It can also blight a future sale of the property if this is not resolved.
Another significant environmental risk comes from subsidence – collapses of the soil and rock below property revealed by cracks in brickwork. This can be for a number of natural causes – soft sands and a water course eroding below the surface, but it can also be due to past mining. In areas affected by past coal mining there is a specific search for this. In the south of England, there has also been a longer and more informal history of chalk, iron and limestone mining.
Heavy rainfall has also exposed many of these often shallow mines, many of which have only recently been discovered, in the form of sinkholes, which can spell disaster.
Other searches
Even if the property does not have a hidden secret, dirty past, flooding or subsidence history, there are other factors that could be as important to you. These include planning applications in the area: will there be a large new development that could affect that tranquil rural view?
Many people want to know what the local area is like. New data is being made available all of the time, including air quality, which will be of concern to you if your family has health problems that could be affected by them. All of these can be asked for via the solicitor and it is important that your mind is put at rest, based on your own needs.
The biggest purchase of your life
Property lawyers like me are here to ensure that you make the right decisions about your intended property. Your heart might be saying yes, but there are times when you need to pause for thought and we will flag up situations through property searches when such a pause is necessary.
You may take a calculated risk about nearby flooding, nearby proposed housing estates, or possible access routes over your intended land – but it is very important that you consider such risks with as much information to hand as possible, of which the searches and title form a critical part.
Anderson Rowntree has helped generations of families and individuals move successfully. We check all the details so you have absolute clarity and are fully informed before you make the biggest purchase of your life. For more information, contact Suzanne on 01903 745666 or email email@example.com

When married parents choose to divorce, they have multiple decisions to make, especially regarding the custody and care of their minor children. While there are often negative feelings associated with the other parent when a romantic relationship ends, having no further contact with one another when there are children involved is not an option; maintaining a positive relationship is necessary for co-parenting. In fact, some people in Virginia argue that a shared parenting arrangement is in the best interest of the children.
Virginia man arrested for drunk driving after fatal crash
Most people realize that when they utilize Virginia roadways, they could potentially be involved in an accident. Unfortunately, all it takes is a single moment of inattention to cause a serious, potentially fatal accident. In fact, a man who was arrested for drunk driving following a fatal crash now faces multiple charges.
Audrina Patridge, estranged husband in child custody dispute
Co-parenting is difficult for people in Virginia and across the country under the best of circumstances. However, when a romantic relationship ends, coming to an agreement regarding the best interests of a child can become even more challenging. When parents are unable to agree, they must often ask a court to intervene with child custody and other decisions.
Child custody considerations in Virginia
There is often a misconception that an intact family unit is in the best interest of children in Virginia and across the country. However, living with two parents who are unhappy with one another and experience a great deal of conflict can be harmful. As such, many couples choose to divorce, leaving them to address the question of child custody.
Visitation disappointment: Dealing with a missing parent
When a parent does not show up for visitation time, it is detrimental to the relationship with their child. It is hard on a child to keep feeling that they will get time with a parent only to find out that they have once again not shown up.

North Korea is reportedly planning major muscle-flexing exercises around two key anniversaries slated for April. They come amid the launch of several ballistic missiles and nuclear threats from leader Kim Jong-un's regime.
North Korea usually holds massive military parades at key political events and April's calendar is full of such anniversaries. The events include the 105th birth anniversary of the reclusive state's late founder Kim Il-sung, on 15 April, and the 85th anniversary of the creation of the Korean People's Army on 25 April.
"The meaningful April holidays should be marked as big political festive events that can be remembered in the national history," the Rodong Sinmun newspaper said on Monday (3 April).
The isolated state is also known for conducting nuclear tests around such anniversary dates and there is a high possibility that North Korea might stage provocative acts in April too, South Korea-based Yonhap news agency noted.
This time around Pyongyang is believed to be preparing for a huge military parade at Mirim Airport in the capital city for the military's founding anniversary, in an attempt to show off its military power, a government source reportedly said.
The largest military parade that Pyongyang had ever conducted was on 10 October 2015 to mark the 70th founding anniversary of the country's ruling Workers' Party.
Analysts are reported to be keeping a close eye on the developments from Kim Jong-un's regime as it is speculated to put its strategic missiles on display at the parade, including a newly developed intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM), also known as the Pukguksong-2.
The military parades are expected to keep other countries — like the US, South Korea, China and Japan — too vigilant as it is said to give experts a glimpse of Pyongyang's latest missile programmes and other new military equipment, according to Yonhap.
North Korea is believed to have unveiled its intercontinental ballistic missile known as the KN-08 for the first time in its military parade in 2012, during the 100th birth anniversary celebration of Kim Il-sung.
However, the country has been warned against any possible provocation.
"We are calling on North Korea to refrain from making provocative acts and (make efforts) for the improvement of inter-Korean ties," Lee Duk-haeng, spokesman for South Korea's unification ministry told a regular press briefing.
Other key events in April include, Kim Jong-un completing five years as the first secretary of the National Defense Commission on 13 April. He took charge of the leadership in late 2011 following the death of his father, Kim Jong-il. The date is also believed to coincide with the 25th anniversary of Kim Il-sung being awarded the grand marshal title.

Scribd made their algorithm more aggressive last month and started to throttle users more stringently. There was a bug in the system that allowed you to bypass the throatting system when a book or audiobook was added to your saved titles list. You could access dozens of titles in your list and have full access to them all. Scribd has since solved this bug and gave a rundown on what happened on their blog.
In order to try and stem the controversy surrounding their unlimited platform they said "We don't own any of the books or audiobooks included in Scribd; instead, we have agreements with publishers that allow us to make them available in our service. The reason we include an asterisk next to unlimited* is because we must occasionally and temporarily limit the available library on Scribd to pay publishers and authors fairly for their work in a way that's sustainable."
They went on to say "Please know that we are constantly working with our publishing partners to reach agreements that will allow us to make as much content as possible available to our members while we continue to fairly compensate authors."
I think in order to make their limiting system more palatable they are trying to appeal to your sense of reason. The company is at the mercy of the dastardly publishing industry and think authors should be compensated and treated fairly, so they must limit your account.
Michael Kozlowski is the Editor in Chief of Good e-Reader. He has been writing about audiobooks and e-readers for the past ten years. His articles have been picked up by major and local news sources and websites such as the CBC, CNET, Engadget, Huffington Post and the New York Times.

I wasn't lacking reasons to live, but here's just a new one, and a strong one at that. This is the daughter of two of the dearest and closest people to me. Her parents gave me the title of co-parent a couple of months back, which I received with honor and with intention and decision to fulfill the role. Now that I see this beautiful child here, I can only feel much stronger in that position.
I'm posting here just to share a little bit the joy of having her in my life now.
I feel her like a little spot of pink in all the see of green that's my life :) (I like the color green). And even if I can't fully describe what I felt when I first saw her with words, I know I felt that all in the world will be safe and well if I can continue to see her well. I felt I could stand there by her side seeing her sleep for hours, and I felt the most tremendous burst of joy and tranquility that has ever filled me when I saw her and both her parents well after childbirth.
