Seems no matter what I doI end up standing in line
I find myself in another queue
Give me some cheese for my wine
It doesn't matter where you go
It's always the same old thing
Feels like roots will begin to grow
When it's winter it will soon be spring
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/anvil-waiting-lyrics.html ]
Caught in another traffic jam
The bank teller's broken a nail
You know I really don't give a damn
The cheque is in the mail
They said they'd pay me yesterday
I know it's always late
Just another wasted day
You've got to hurry up and wait
Waiting, waiting, always someone in front of you
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting, it's something I hate to do
Waiting, waiting
Waiting, waiting, waiting
Take a number, stand in line
That's what you must do
I've had enough, I have no time
Won't you tell me something new?
The waiting game has its rules
That you can't defy
I always seem to lose my cool
I'll be waiting until I die

"I would be fortunate if I could muster just half of the vision that Joe had for the agency to further the goals of Gov. Tomblin and Secretary Maddox for providing better and more efficient services for West Virginia motorists," Dale said.
Those initiatives include a combined cash register and digital license plate system — which Dale said would serve as a foundation for longer-term DMV modernization efforts — and the construction of the new regional office in Summersville.
He said the DMV is also two-thirds of the way through the process of implementing its electronic insurance verification system.
The system will replace the state's current paper-based system, and is designed to help law enforcement officers curb the number of uninsured drivers on state roads.
"Our longer range goal is a unified customer record so that when you interact with DMV, all of your records appear to the customer service representatives," Dale said, "so you can get your address changed on not only your driver's license, but also all of your vehicles, boats, trailers etc. at one time."
Dale said this system would eliminate redundant data entry into the state's separate revenue, driver and vehicle databases.
Dale has been mentioned as one of the possible permanent replacements as commissioner. Former West Virginia University Athletic Director Ed Pastilong had discussed interest in the position, but withdrew his name from consideration earlier this month.
A 30-year veteran of the DMV, Dale has earned bachelor's and master's degrees in political science from Marshall University and a master's degree in legal studies from West Virginia University.
He lives in South Charleston with his wife Shelia, who runs a speech pathology practice specializing in helping children with communication challenges.

Barking's build ambitions
London council Barking and Dagenham intends to build 763 new council homes by 2015. Gavriel Hollander finds out how
Barking and Dagenham Council has one of the most ambitious local authority new build programmes anywhere in the country.
Its contract with the Greater London Authority as part of the Homes and Communities Agency's £1.8 billion affordable homes programme has committed it to build 763 new affordable homes by the end of March 2015. It is the HCA's biggest council contract -more than twice the size of Birmingham's. And the council is pressing to go even further.
'We are going to exceed that by up to 100 homes,' says a confident Ken Jones, director of housing strategy at the council. Phil Waker, cabinet member for housing at the authority, is even more bullish: 'I'm hoping we can exceed it by even more,' he chimes in.
For some, Barking is the poster boy council for a new era of local authority-led house building. It is an era made possible, in part, by the self-financing revolution that saw 171 stock-owning English councils seize control of their housing budgets this spring in return for taking on a combined £29 billion of historic housing revenue account debt.
'The main change is that we can plan for the long term now,' says Mr Jones.
Barking led the campaign for reform of the HRA under the previous Labour government. But in the short-term, the imposition of council debt caps by the Treasury means there is little room to leverage in extra money to fund new building.
The east London authority's self-financing settlement - the amount it owes the government - is £265 million. There is about £12 million in 'headroom' between that figure and the debt cap meaning that, until the debt starts being repaid the council's borrowing potential is limited.
'Councils are going to want to use their own resources in the same way as a housing association would,' says Darren Henaghan, corporate director of housing and environment. 'The debt cap is not like any normal accountancy rules for prudential borrowing.'
With building housing just one of three key priorities for Barking - along with maintenance of its existing 19,200 homes and a wide-ranging estate renewal programme - the cap could have been a problem. But the council doesn't plan to kick its heels while it reduces its debt.
Of the 763 homes it will build over the next three years, 477 will come courtesy of a partnership with fund manager Long Harbour, which raised £64 million of equity from institutional investors. Barking's stake in the project comes from the use of council-owned land for the development. It is a model that could be replicated for future development, with the council already in talks with Aviva Investors over a similar deal.
'I was fearful of the debt cap at first,' admits Mr Waker. 'But now we realise there are other things we can do if we do bump up against it [the borrowing limit].' He adds that building new homes now is the best way to guarantee cash flow in the future.
Other London councils have looked at similar investment but the cheap land values in Barking make it more viable. 'We have not closed the door on [similar investment] but we don't think it stands up here because of our land values,' admits Paul Ellis, cabinet minister for housing at Wandsworth Council.
Even with investors wanting commercial returns, around one in five of the 477 homes will be for social rent, with a further 10 per cent let at 65 per cent of market rate. For the remaining 300 homes that will be built under the HCA programme, the majority will be well below the 80 per cent market rate the programme allows.
The price mix reflects a policy under which no council tenant should pay more than 35 per cent of net household income on rent.
Meanwhile, the council is spending more of its own money - £34 million in the last financial year - on its existing stock, of which a third still does not meet the decent homes standard. Much of its old housing is being demolished, including the towers known as Legoland in Goresbrook Village. Barking is well under way on a programme funded by the previous HCA regime to build 144 homes that will help rehouse those decanted.
But this, combined with an influx of families forced out by high rents elsewhere in London, has created other problems. The number of households in temporary accommodation has doubled in two years to more than 1,200, with more than 100 in bed and breakfasts. The council has not ruled out following the example of its neighbour Newham Council by trying to rehouse people outside London.
'It is something that we are keeping under review,' concedes Mr Jones.

Buckwheat Cookies
I tend to get hungry in the afternoon. Somewhere around 3:00 when my mind is ready to head home or take a nap, my tummy starts to grumble about dinner. I've found that a nice warm cup of tea can really take care of my sleepy head and my rumbling tummy. Although sometimes I need a little something substantial to go along with my tea. Or in other words, I need a freaking cookie.
I recently purchased Kim Boyce's new cookbook, Good to the Grain. I have read so many wonderful things about the book and her recipes, and can honestly say everyone was right. I've read the cookbook from cover to cover and filled it with little tabbies because there are so many recipes I want to try. As soon as I stopped on the buckwheat wafer recipe I knew I had found a winner. It boasts flavor without an overpowering sweetness. It's the perfect cookie to eat with a cup of tea or coffee.
I have to apologize to Kim though. I truly hate altering perfect recipes, but I did make one change to this. I'm trying to find new sugar substitutes and am currently experimenting with agave nectar. It's not the perfect solution to cutting out sugar because it does have fructose, but I encourage you to do your own research before developing an opinion about it. The taste is great and I've had lots of success cooking with it. If you want to try Kim's recipe the way she developed it then I truly recommend you buy her cookbook.* You will not be disappointed!
Buckwheat Cookies
Adapted from Good to the Grain
1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 egg yolks
1 1/2 buckwheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup agave nectar
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
Sift the two flours and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add the butter and completely blend it into the dry mixture. It will help if you use your hands to squeeze the butter into the mixture. Next add the nectar, cream, and egg yolks. Continue using your hands to squeeze and blend the mixture all together. It will be very sticky.
Turn the dough onto a well-floured surface and divide the dough in half. Place each half of the dough onto a piece of parchment. Roll the dough in the parchment to form a log. Twist the two ends to seal the wrapped dough. Chill the logs for at least two hours.
On a flat surface or another piece of parchment pour half the poppy seeds into a long line. Roll one of the chilled logs into the poppy seeds to coat well. Repeat with the additional log. At this point you can chill the logs for up to 5 days or begin baking.
Place two racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees. Slice the logs into 1/8 inch wafers and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes (or until golden-brown), rotating the baking sheets halfway through. Place cookies on a rack to cool and enjoy!
*Full Disclosure: I have not been asked to review this cookbook and only offer my own personal opinion. Although, if you buy the cookbook from the link above I will get a small percentage of the sale through the affiliate.
2 Responses to "Buckwheat Cookies"
I'm thinking about buying this book too….I hear raving reviews all the time…..and these cookies do look good and the use of buckwheat flour makes them that much more interesting.
These sound interesting. I can't imagine the flavor; I guess I'll have to bake them to find out!

God Bless America
I won't ever forget September 11, 2001. How could I? How could any of us? I remember the sadness, the fear, the helplessness, the anger... actually I don't just remember it, I can still feel it. I was 14 and in my freshman home room when I head the news. My classmates and I looked to our teachers to know how to react and we saw the same things we were feeling. Everyone was so completely human that day; we were all so fragile and capable of being broken.
But, September 11 and the days that immediately followed showed us something else. We all felt something else. We were overcome by a sense of unity, pride, and love. We looked at each other as brothers and sisters. We were more than fellow citizens, we were family. And, while in the past ten years the world has learned and demonstrated the many ways one can hate another person, it has also showed us the ways we can love. Today, I'm keeping mind a great quote by Reverend Desmond Tutu, "Do your little bit of good where you are; its those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world." I'm going to remember those that died ten years ago in New York, DC, and Pennsylvania by doing little bits of good whenever and wherever I can. I can't think of a better way to honor their memories.
God bless, America. God bless, The World.

We the People - nice ring to it
I thought Governor Jerry Brown had a corner on this theme. We the People is a sign on the front door of his home in Oakland California.
The full force of Obama's campaign is arriving like a late season hurricane.
"Good morning,
We're about to change the way Americans engage with President Obama and his Administration by launching a new way for you to join with fellow Americans to petition the federal government on a range of issues.
It's called We the People and you can learn more about it, and sign up to be the first to know when it's live here:
President Obama believes that government should be open and accountable to its citizens, and that's the goal of We the People. This online platform gives Americans a direct line to the White House on the issues and concerns that matter most to them.
Soon, anyone will be able to create or sign a petition at WhiteHouse.gov seeking action from the federal government on a range of issues. If a petition gathers enough signatures, the White House staff will review it, make sure it gets to Obama Administration policy experts, and issue an official response. President Obama will even answer a few himself.
While this is a big change for the White House's website, the idea is actually written into our founding documents. Throughout our history, Americans have used petitions to organize around issues they care about. We the People gives you a new way to join together with others to ask your government to address a problem, change a policy, or take action on a range of issues.
We the People will be launching very soon so start thinking about the issues that matter to you and the people you'll ask to join you.
We're looking forward to hearing from you.

Those Texas Rangers
Posted by Dave StudemanIt's Monday morning, May 3rd, and the Texas Rangers have the best record in baseball.
Most of the media coverage has focused on the Rangers' bats. After all, they lead the league in runs scored. But the real key for the Rangers' has been their pitching, unlooked for and unappreciated due to their ballpark.
The top graph in the American League trends section shows that their offense is only somewhat better than average once corrected for ballpark, but their no-name pitching staff is second only to the Red Sox (the graph was drawn on Saturday).
The Ranger pitchers have done a particularly good job of not allowing home runs (third least in the league, despite playing in a home run park). Keeping the ball in the park may be key to their continued success.
Dave was called a "national treasure" by Rob Neyer. Seriously. Comments about this article can be sent to him through the miracle of e-mail.

Pendle 'clickers' get crafty for Royal British Legion's annual appeal
2:44pm Friday 27th September 2013 in News By Tyrone Marshall, Reporter
A PENDLE group is hoping a stitch in time will raise vital funds for the Royal British Legion.
The Crafty Clickers, who meet at the ACE Centre in Nelson, have joined forces with the Nelson and District Branch of the charity to make knitted poppies for this year's annual Poppy Appeal.
All members of the crafty crew have been given a pattern to knit the hand-crafted poppies.
Crafty Clickers' organiser Beverly McKiernan said: "The plan is to knit as many of these little masterpieces as possible which will be part of the RBL fundraising effort this autumn.
"The hand knits will have special pride of place at the RBL stand at this year's vintage and craft fair to be held at he ACE Centre from October 11 to 13."
As the organisers want this to be a record-breaking success, they are still looking for more knitters to produce similar items to help support this worthy cause.
Anyone interested in getting involved should ring Beverly at the ACE Centre on 01282 661080 and she will forward a copy of the pattern.
Then all you have to do is work away at the poppies in your own time.
Beverly said: "Whether you have time to do one, or a hundred, your input will be very welcome indeed."
Beverly will liaise with each crafter until the big unveiling when the final tally will be presented to the local branch of the legion.
Similarly, anyone wishing to support the scheme with donations of knitting needles, or red, green and black wool, should contact Beverly on the same number.

Regretsy, a self-proclaimed fail blog of hand crafts from Etsy, tried to do something nice for the holidays.
It created a Secret Santa fund to collect money for children's presents from users. All users were nudged to give $2 to the cause.
Unfortunately, Regretsy used the wrong PayPal button to collect donations. In a post titled "Fuck You, PayPal," (filed under 'Bullshit" by Helen Killer), Regretsy writes about the fiasco.
"Their argument is that I generated this money using a "Donate" button, and not the "Buy Now" or "Shopping Cart" buttons I have been using for all the other fundraising I've done in the last two years," writes Regretsy.
"Because I used the wrong button, they have made me send them everything from bank statements to Articles of Incorporation to affidavits and notarized statements, even though I have been a verified business customer of theirs for 10 years."
Regretsy was asked to refund all donations it collected, literally thousands of dollars, $2 at a time. Meanwhile, PayPal gets to keep the fees from all the transitions.
"The best part is that when you raise the money all over again with a different button, they get fees on that. And of course, they process all the toy purchase payments, so this is a triple dip on money raised for needy kids at Christmas," writes Regretsy.

Treatment Options for Prostate Cancer
at Staten Island Radiation Oncology
Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy in males. Asymptomatic men who have nothing abnormal on physical examination may test positive for prostate cancer with an elevated PSA blood test. Thankfully, we have a full array of treatment choices to control and cure this disease.
Patients with prostate cancer are generally grouped into low, intermediate and high risk depending on the level of PSA, the clinical stage, and Gleason score (pathology). Low risk patients have a higher chance of achieving long term disease control compared to higher risk patients.
Treatment options for low risk patients: watchful waiting, radical surgery (if less then age 70), definitive external beam therapy, definitive brachytherapy.
Treatment options for intermediate risk patients: radical surgery (if less then age 70), definitive external beam therapy, definitive brachytherapy, and combination external beam therapy with brachytherapy. Hormones may be added prior to or along with radiation therapy.
Treatment option for high risk patients: definitive external beam therapy, combination external beam therapy with brachytherapy. Patients with high risk disease should receive hormones prior to and along with radiation treatments.
The referring urologist along with the radiation oncologist will help guide patients in their choice of treatments.
Staten Island Radiation Oncology is the only free standing facility in New York City to offer Brachytherapy and External Beam Therapy in an outpatient facility.
Rapid Arc IMRT/IGRT is an advanced technique utilized at Staten Island Radiation Oncology. This technique allows for maximal sparing of normal tissues while achieving excellent coverage of the prostate. With Rapid Arc, the treatment is delivered in less than 2 minutes which allows for less organ motion. Additionally, there is less total body radiation dose delivered. With this technique, the prostate is visualized prior to therapy to make sure the set up is perfect before to each treatment.
Brachytherapy is a minimally invasive treatment whereby radioactive seeds are placed into the prostate. This is an outpatient procedure performed in our office under general anesthesia.
- Risk Factors
The risk factors for prostate cancer include:
- Family history of prostate cancer
- Race (African American males have a higher risk)
- Age (being over 65)
- Symptoms
Prostate cancer is usually asymptomatic and is often found either because of an elevated PSA or because of a finding during a rectal examination. Patients with prostate cancer often have BPH (benign prostatic hypertrophy) and associated urinary symptoms which can include weak stream, difficulty urinating, and pain or burning during urination.
- Diagnosis
Patients that have an elevated PSA and/or a suspicious physical exam finding have prostate biopsies performed. Multiple prostate biopsies are obtained via an ultrasound guided needle, through the rectum.
- Staging
In patients with intermediate or high risk prostate cancer, testing includes CT of the Abdomen/Pelvis and bone scan.

So I recently discovered that there are, in fact, numerous types of roleplaying systems out there. Some are the traditional tabletop roleplaying games that people think of, others are more specialized. Regardless, however, I think there are three main types that should be looked at for anyone wanting to get into tabletop roleplay.
Big Ears Small Mouthis an anime based RPG made for players who want to have the fun of running their own game in a setting that's fairly familiar to them, such as Ranma 1/2, Naruto, Inuyasha, any of them. The character sheets are a bit confusing at first but it falls into place quick and easy, and usually it's a breeze once you understand what you're doing. Anyone who's a fan of anime will enjoy it, so long as it doesn't devolve into a game of hentai x.x
Pathfinder is a spin-off of the popular D&D systems everyone's familiar with. It takes the rules of D&D's 3.5 edition and balances them, adding new quirks here and there. Most campaigns can be run with the standard core rulebook and the accompanying monster manual, and it's a fairly balanced run. Newer players may want to find themselves someone to actually teach them some of the ropes for a few games, but the books and character sheets are fairly intuitive once you give it a read. There are numerous character sheets available online so printing new ones is quick and easy.
World of Darkness
The new World of Darkness (nWoD) takes the rules of the World of Darkness and adds more stability and ease. It's a very dark game, great for horror movie fans who want to experience everything from serial killers to vampires to creatures that are only a few steps away from God. The point system keeps players balanced easily, even at higher levels. Strangely enough, this is one of the only systems I know of that only uses a single type of dye, a d10. Regardless, a handful of d10 lets every player have a fun time and experience stuff that'll send chills down their spines.

If a voter's absentee ballot is flagged before Election Day because of problems with a signature, voters could have the opportunity to update their signature on file. But generally, voters only have one opportunity to get it right.
In every case, voters are notified in writing that their absentee ballot was rejected.
Miami-Dade rejected a total of 2,427 returned absentee ballots out of 164,867 cast. The majority of them, 1,599, were postmarked after the 7 p.m. close of the polls on Aug. 14. An additional 582 were discarded for lack of a signature, and 307 others were tossed aside because the signatures did not match.
In Orlando's Orange County, elections officials rejected 553 absentee ballots out of 39,064. Nearly all of the bad ballots fell into two main categories: no signature on the certificate envelope, 300, and signatures that didn't match, 208.
Like Pinellas, Orange County's election officials review every questionable absentee and present their findings to the canvassing board, which makes the final decision, said Fred Altensee, a spokesman for the Orange County Elections Office.
Sarasota County rejected 505 absentee ballots out of 17,861 that were returned for the primary. The vast majority arrived too late to be counted.
"Voters should be sure to properly complete their vote-by-mail ballot, sign and date the certificate envelope and include postage," said Corley, Pasco County's supervisor of elections. "If your signature has changed, particularly due to medical reasons, it's imperative that you update your signature."
Volusia County rejected 356 absentees out of 24,303, and about half of the junked votes had no signatures. St. Johns County rejected 146 out of 4,827, 110 of which were not returned until after Election Day.
"Too late to count," said St. Johns Supervisor of Elections Vicky Oakes.
In Seminole County, it's a similar story: Ertel said the biggest reason that absentee ballots don't count is the most obvious reason of all: Voters don't turn them in by 7 p.m. on Election Day.
"Voters should give themselves plenty of leeway when mailing it back," Ertel said.

An outreach program has been planned to be introduced by Kevin Humphries, state's Mental Health Minister, says a recent report, which aims at helping new mothers in remote communities.
It has been told by the Barwon's member that expecting or new mothers in rural areas often fail to seek help in case they suffer any kind of mental illness. And the new service would enable them to access the required service by connecting regional health workers to Sydney's renowned mental health doctors.
"One of the reasons why we put together a mental health portfolio was to start to coordinate the services that we've got across the state", says Mr. Humphries.
Health experts say that development of post-natal depression is hugely hazardous not only for the new mother, but her baby and family also.
And the new Outreach Perinatal Service or SwOPS being brought has only been planned so as to reduce these harms. It is being said that the pilot program would allow access to telephone consultations as well as outreach visits, thereby reducing number of hospital admissions and bringing improvements in community-based care.
The service for Sydney's Mental Health at Westmead Hospital worth $240,000 has already taken place in Orange and Lismore, says the report. Also, its success this time would ensure its launch across the whole state.

No Tarr??? WTF!!!!
the thing i love about the cannes site is u get to see the running times
Robin Hood and Wall Street 2 or about 2hrs and 20.
the new deoliviera is 94mins, pretty good for a 101 yr old man whose last film was under an hour
and the new woody allen runs 98mins, a good thing cause when they run longer they tend to be a bit boring
No Malick either. I'm assuming their films weren't ready.
Or maybe the motto of this year's fest is: Less Tarr, More Beckinsale.
Is there some rationale to Kate Beckinsale being in the jury that I'm unaware of?
They wanted a hot babe to offset Burton's ugliness?
she is a huge international star
maybe they wanted to add some more stars to the mix since pitt and penn wont be there
I think Ari is on to something….
Pseudo-surrealist films are going to have a field day this year.
Penn still might be there. He's in Fair Game which is being screened.
Anyways it's interesting to see a Kiarostami film in competition especially after I remember reading he wasn't going to be showing any more films in comp. Going to be interesting what film Burton + Beckinsale + Del Toro pick.
I don't see Tree of Life on the list. This is going to upset quite a few people.
Gregg Araki still makes films?!?!!?? Do people actually watch them?
Den, frankly I'm shocked at how low the overseas box office receipts for her Underworld films are.
What is going to upset people as well is to see the CAMERA D OR (best first feature) jury headed by GAEL GARCIA BERNAL, director of one of the worst first features ever : DEFICIT
Kerrigan, Hong, Muntean and Xiaoshuai should have been on the official program.
Puiu too but i guess Amalric is more popular….
Yea Joks. Mysterious Skin is a near-masterpiece. Interesting to see that Socialisme is creditted as "FILM SOCIALISME" and its not presented as an omnibus film.
Very dissapointined in the lack of Tree of Life + The Turin Horse. Claire Denis is gonna whip that jury into shape.
Manouel de Oliveira will win. You heard it here first.
He has yet to make a bad film, at least in the last 25 or so years
Damn, no new Cam Archer film.
Cam Archer should go to the Fortnight

Kelly McGillis Classic
Booking Your Hotels Through These Hotels, helps support the tournament either financially, in-kind services, or by accomodations for our staff and international teams or sponsored teams.
It is now part of your registration materials to book your hotel through our office to help support the event. You will find that we have the lowest prices available
We thank you for your support !
Welcome to our 13h Annual
Kelly McGillis Classic International Womens and Girls Flag Football Championship
February 3 - 9, 2004
This page was created to help teams make their hotel bookings
Normally room rates are given for two persons, and though a room may accomodate additional persons in that room, additional charges are added and charged as an "extra person" fee. This is due to the extra wear and tear and time needed to clean up the room.
What we have done for our players over the years, is made arrangements with various lodgings to offer: discounted rates, plus have the extra person/s fee waived. Some of these rates are a huge difference from their normal prices.Also to ensure that we have enough rooms for our teams, we have blocked as many as 50 rooms at each of these facilities . One year the entire island was booked and teams had no place to stay! They could not come to the tournament
Please Book your Hotels and Airlines As soon as possible - Call 1-888-GO-IWFFA (1-888- 464-9332) / (305) 293-9315 or
Email : firstname.lastname@example.com
All of these prices are the lowest the hotels and guest houses could possibly offer our players at this time of year. They are cheaper than any travel agent , national offices or other booking agents.
This page gives you some photos and little description along with their prices.
Major credit cards are accepted and some facilities require their rooms to be paid in full prior to your arrival.
Some guest houses require special arrangements for payment, which you may find out at the time of your booking. Usually, a one night deposit is sufficient and cancellation policies vary.
Florida state, requires a 11.5% sales tax which will be added to these rates. Please take the full amount of each room into consideration, especially when you are sharing a room and dividing costs among one another. These prices
do not
include this Florida hotel/bed tax.
In booking for your team find out if players would like to go out to eat in local restaurants, or if players are trying to save money by cooking their own meals in their hotel room. Some of your options offer standard rooms (no cooking facilities), kitchenettes (micro-wave, kitchen sink and refrigerator) or full kitchen facilities with dining rooms, multiple bedrooms, two or more bathrooms, television, VCR's etc. Are you looking for comfort, or just a bed to sleep in?
We remind you that it is customary to tip your cleaning person either daily or at the end of your stay.
All of these places we have listed, are extremely clean, well known, established and very reputable businesses. ALL are
very close
to the fields
Many thanks to the managers of these hotels and guest houses.
enjoy your stay!

I went up to Aston Saturday but didn't get there until the afternoon because of the dreaded M25 traffic. I was still a bit ill so I didn't want to do many runs though.
I walked the course when I got there. It was similar to the usual course but with a fair few changes. Watching the racers practise I could tell the course was flat out from top to bottom.
I did 4 runs down getting faster each time and tried a few different lines that seemed a little different to others. At the end of the day I did a run behind Dad to see how he was getting on too. It was good to see he's still got the pace.
After practise we went back to Rich's place and got ready to go out for a meal. We also met up with good friends Rachel and Jacob, wife and son of Nema distributor, Jez. I had the best curry I have ever had and I can't even remember what it was called. After food it was back to Rich's to terrorise little Jacob. I have never known a kid who wants to be tickled so much!
The event was full with 300 people racing. The car park was packed to the brim come Sunday morning. I spent the first part of the morning changing tires and checking over Dad's bike. There was so many problems with it I had to fix what I could.
I did a few practise runs to pick up the pace and warm up again. The course was getting beaten up a bit which made it even better to ride.
I watched a few of my mates in their first runs in Junior go down and got ready for my run. I warmed up how I would usually with my trainer Ian watching me. I felt confidant on the start line and before I knew it I was sprinting the first straight. I made a few little mistakes like you do but all in all a good 1st run. I got fastest time of the first runs by 1.4 seconds in the expert/Elite.
Unfortunately in 2nd runs someone hit a tree falling off at the bottom and there was a scare that he had broken his neck or spine. There was talk of the rest of 2nd runs being cancelled whilst the guy was being attended to. News came through that the injured racer didn't need an air ambulance but went in a normal one. Racing was back on and I got my gear back on to ride. Over the years there has been talk about if it's possible to break the minute barrier down a track at Aston. I made it my challenge to do it.
I warmed up this time with Ian showing me what to do. I learnt a lot about warming up and it's not about spinning your legs backwards. I made a few mistakes again in my run but the start felt much faster. It was going to be touch and go if I was to get the time I wanted. As I went through the finish line everyone shouted yes at the bottom. I didn't really know what this meant but I soon found out I got a 59.6second run. I was really pleased to get under a min.
I heard after my run good news about the guy that had suspected spinal injuries. Despite being very concussed his spine and neck was fine.
When I was called for the podium I went up very surprised to see the amount of prises for me! Check this out, a pair of carbon Avid Elixir brakes, a Sram X0 rear mech, a Truvativ bar, stem and seat post, a free Boxxer fork service, £50, some bike cleaner and an oversize can of Monster.
Thanks to Rich and Rachel for another fantastic memorable weekend.

Featured articles needing reconfirmation (120 total) |
Every two years a featured article will need to be brought up for reconfirmation, to ensure it is still an example of Memory Alpha's best work. Featured articles more than two years old will be automatically added to the list to the right. It is expected that these articles will have undergone revisions over that time to keep them up to date, but it's important to make sure that these revisions have maintained the quality expected of a featured article.
Before starting a reconfirmation discussion, please make sure you are familiar with the reconfirmation policy. For past reconfirmation discussions, please see the archive.
Reconfirmations can be started by beginning a new discussion under either "Nominations without objections", for articles you support or have no preference to, or "Nominations with objections", for articles you oppose, with a heading containing a link back to the article you want to suggest. Early reconfirmations should be under the section of the same name. Reconfirmations should display, and have a link to, the blurb used on the main page, just add {{Blurb|ARTICLE NAME}} before the discussion, and it's generally a good idea to link to the FA history on the article's talk page as well. If you have a preference on the article, please briefly state why.
Once this is done, a notice that the article is up for reconfirmation should be added to the article in question by inserting {{faupdate}} at the top of the page, above any other templates. Early reconfirmations should use the {{farc}} template.
When you are commenting on a reconfirmation, please take the time to read the entire article before you decide whether to Support or Oppose it. When supporting or opposing an article, please use a bullet point (by adding a * before your comment) without any indent so these will be easy to find later. General comments should be indented as usual, and, as always, please sign your nominations and comments with "~~~~".
Reconfirmations without objections
Thy'lek Shran
Thy'lek Shran was an Andorian commander in the Imperial Guard in the 2150s. Despite his aggressive and xenophobic background, Shran became an unlikely ally of Starfleet Captain Jonathan Archer and a proponent of strengthened ties between Andoria and Earth.
Shran first encountered Archer in June of 2151, when Shran led a raid on the Vulcan monastery at P'Jem in search of a clandestine sensor array which they believed the Vulcans were using to spy on Andorian territories. Captain Archer, along with Tucker and T'Pol, accidentally stumbled into the confrontation while on a courtesy visit to the Vulcan monks. During an ensuing firefight, an advanced subspace sensor array was discovered, proving the Andorians were right. As a gesture of peace, Archer gave Shran sensor readings and images of the facility and allowed him to leave freely.
Later that year, Shran was assigned to an Andorian covert ops unit supporting an uprising on Coridan. To repay his debt to Archer from their first encounter, he assisted in Archer and T'Pol's escape from the planet after they were imprisoned as rebels. In 2152, Shran was commanding ground forces deployed to Weytahn, where Vulcan and Andorian commandos had been fighting for control of the planet. Shran sought to negotiate a truce with Vulcan ambassador Soval and requested Captain Archer serve as mediator. The negotiations were ultimately successful and a cease fire was arranged.
This article was nominated back in June 2004. I did some formatting to bring it up to modern conventions (such as sub-headings, behaviour of the appearance list etc.) and added some background information from actor Jeffery Combs which I think gives some interesting insight into the character. All in all, I think the article stands up well, and deserves to retain its featured status.–Cleanse ( talk | contribs ) 05:49, January 17, 2012 (UTC)

- Support. Also, here's a link to the blurb template: {{FA/Thy'lek Shran}}. - Archduk3 16:00, January 17, 2012 (UTC)
- Support, One minor thing, I seem to remember Shran telling Jhamel something about his early life in one of the "Aenar" episodes. If that is so, it might be added to the a bit short "Early life" section at some time by somebody who has access to the episode. Otherwise fine...--Sennim 13:29, January 20, 2012 (UTC)
Reconfirmations with objections
Babel One (episode)
"Babel One" was the 12th episode of the fourth season of Star Trek: Enterprise.
On the bridge of the Andorian warship Kumari, Commander Shran crawls out from under the wreckage of his damaged ship which has been attacked by a Tellarite vessel. He attempts to contact Imperial Command, but communications are down. The computer announces a warp containment breach in two minutes, leaving Shran no other choice but to order the crew to abandon ship, vowing to make the Tellarites pay for the loss of Kumari.
In Captain Archer's quarters aboard Enterprise, Archer and Hoshi Sato roleplay that Sato is a Tellarite ambassador, in preparation for the real ambassador's arrival. They discuss the Tellarites' frequent arguing and Sato tells the captain to keep Porthos out of sight during their stay, as they consider canine a delicacy.
One of the "problematic" featured articles that was nominated, withdrawn, and renominated all within a week in February 2005. The nomination can be seen here. I don't currently have any opinion on the article as it is now, since I haven't had time to completely read it. - Archduk3 16:25, January 17, 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose - I just looked through the background info, and had to remove half of it as speculation or irrelevant commentary. What's left is severely lacking in content, and has citation deficiencies.–Cleanse ( talk | contribs ) 03:50, January 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose – a very old FA, it badly needs updated (either to current FA standards or even just generally). --Defiant 04:23, January 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose - I tend to agree having now read the article. I find the summary to be fine overall, but the rest is sorely lacking. - Archduk3 15:40, January 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose - As above, the writing could do with an overhaul and there are quite a few "micro-paragraphs" that could be integrated with a little bit more imaginative writing..--Sennim 13:29, January 20, 2012 (UTC)

August 2011 – Update:
Although it looked, at the beginning of this year, as though Bangladesh was heading towards a clear decision as to the future of ship breaking upon its beaches; it was either to happen safely, or not at all. Last month saw an eventful time for the market, with Bangladesh at first re-opening with reinforced rules on vessel access to the beach – hazardous materials were not permitted. This has been turbulent though, with differing news as to whether the yards were open or not, as yard owners awaited an official document from the Supreme Court.
This week, the Supreme Court of Bangladesh has granted an extension of the allowance to import end-of-life vessels for demolishion until early October. This extension comes as the Court is asked to hear the appeal from various campaigners against the functioning yards. Until the Court makes their decision, Bangladesh ship breakers have been given the opportunity to 'clean up their act' and improve their health and safety and environmental practices.
This news is yet to have its full impact upon themarket for end of life vessels and scrap steel, as the Ramadan month of fasting is already underway, ship demolition productivity is known to depriciate at this time.
January 2011 -
Over the past few months, the shipping industry and greenpassport.net have been closely following the movements of Chittagong's ship breaking yards. This heightened interest has developed over the closure of Bangladesh's ship breaking yards due to lack of health and safety and environmental standards. Earlier this year the Bangladeshi Government issued a decree which stated that no contaminant laden vessel may be imported for breaking on Bangladeshi beaches. On 21st December, it was reported that Bangladesh's High Court has banned all vessels from being scrapped at its beaches. It further ruled that the local Government must employ a committee to inspect vessels upon entry to Bangladesh for evidence of the presence of hazardous materials.
This move is one element of the current shift in the shipping industry's views on ship breaking. The dismantling of a disused vessel is not in itself the problem, as this brings affordable steel to countries such as Bangladesh that cannot afford to have it imported. The main issue over ship breaking comes from the lack of legislation and health and safety equipment for the workers that break the ships, as well as the impact on the environment. Officially, in 2009 it has been estimated that 29 people died on site at ship breaking sites, however realistically this statistic is likely to be much higher, due to deaths incurred after workers have been laid off for their injuries, and accounting for the extended latency period of fatal illnesses brought about by hazards such as asbestos, commonly found on vessels.
A watchful eye had already been placed on ship breaking sites with the introduction of the Basel Convention, the Ship Recycling Plan and the Hong Kong Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships in 2009. Such legislation proposed that all vessels will be required to hold a 'Green Passport' or 'Inventory of Hazardous Materials', which would stay with the vessel and be updated throughout its lifespan, detailing all hazardous materials present and removed. This would then be of most use when the vessel came to be recycled, where it would be required for entry onto site.
Although this legislation has not yet come into force, some countries, such as Bangladesh, are beginning to implement the fundamental ideas in preparation for its entry into force. Shipping companies and vessel owners are starting to abide by these new methods, yet many vessels will still contain a great deal of hazardous materials when they are sent for recycling.
However, this transition for Bangladesh has not been all smooth sailing. The decree states that all ships must be clean before entry into Bangladesh waters. There has been differing reports on whether there have or have not been ships entering the Bangladesh beaches for recycling. Saiful Ashraf, an investigator for the Department of Environment (DoE) stated that two recycling yards were set up without the correct procedures and facilities in place, and these yards are now in the process of being sued. According to Mr Ashraf, no yards in Sitakunda have the correct DoE clearance.
The Daily Star/Asia News Network reported on the 3rd December that some yards have now gained clearance from the Department of Environment to recycle ships. However, as these do not contain the correct equipment to dispose of hazardous materials, just why they have been given clearance could be questioned. Jafar Ahmed, director of Chittagong DoE, said they have been visiting the ship-breaking yards and are happy with the progress made so far.
The Daily Star also reported that 16 ships have entered Bangladeshi beaches to be recycled after receiving no objection certificates (NOC) from the shipping department. However, the Bangladesh Environment Lawyers Association (BELA) have served a legal notice against this action to all the officials involved in issuing the NOCs asking them to take steps so the toxic ships leave the country's territory immediately.
On 15th December an official order was passed by Bangladesh High Court to stop the issuing of NOCs for vessels coming into Bangladesh for scrapping. The High Court allowed 30 days for the formation of a committee which will inspect whether or not a vessel is contaminated by hazardous materials, and therefore whether it is allowed entry.
Clearly Bangladesh is making great steps towards the safe control of hazards on ships and safety of workers, but this is taking time, and requires the full commitment of shipping companies themselves to comply with Bangladesh's requests, as well as a huge change to be made to Bangladesh's ship breaking methods of the past and a large investment into ship recycling with a safe environment for workers.
