United States National Military Strategy 2011 (NMS 2011) released on 8 February provides the pathways that the armed forces are likely to follow in the years ahead, thus an overview from an Indian perspective may be relevant. The US follows an institutionalized mechanism for outlining national as well as military goals and objectives. The President outlines the national security strategy last issued in 2010, the Defence Secretary issues a National Defense Strategy which was done in 2008 and also carries out a Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) once every four years with the one in 2010 being the latest in the series. The Military Strategy was last issued in 2004 and thus one was perhaps long overdue.
The process of evolution of NMS 2011 is based on US perception of strategy being a function of identifying ends, ways and means. The NMS defines ways and means rather than the ends, which are outlined in the National Security Strategy and the QDR. The document issued by Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff after a deliberate process of consultation thus underlines military commitment to contribute to clearly defined national objectives. This may contrast with the Indian scenario where armed forces leadership have complained of lack of sufficient clarity in defining national goals which can effectively contribute to developing a focused military strategy.
The NSS defines the military vision of fielding a joint force that defends the, "nation and allies", and actively supports peace and stability in tandem with other elements of national power. There are three cornerstones of the NSS, full spectrum capability dictated by an uncertain security environment, higher joint direction and leadership and a concert of allies and partners. There is a notable shift in emphasis from fighting terrorism which was the main theme in 2004 to developing full spectrum capability. The emphasis on higher leadership is possibly due to effective management of current and future challenges in an era of budgetary constraints that the US military envisages in the years ahead.
The role of the military remains that of securing national interests globally by facilitating other US government agencies, act as a convener in a cooperative security paradigm and also a, 'security guarantor' to deter threats and challenges where necessary.
While emphasising pre-eminence of the United States, the NSS acknowledges a 'multi nodal', global architecture which is a seminal change indicating acceptance of interests and issue based partnerships with lesser emphasis on security blocs. This would provide greater scope for cooperation with countries as India without impinging on the core policy of strategic autonomy. A rising Chinese military profile, nuclear miscalculations in West Asia, climate change induced natural disasters, increase in threats from non states, competition related to energy and protection of the global commons comprising of trade and information highways are seen as components of the security environment.
These facilitate defining the core national military objectives as, 'Counter Violent Extremism, Deter and Defeat Aggression, Strengthen International and Regional Security', and finally, 'Shape the Future Force'. The seminal change appears to be acknowledging terrorism as, 'violent extremism', thereby attempting to address roots of contemporary violence requiring military intervention. Despite this change of emphasis measures suggested to counter violent extremism are focused on the narrower paradigm of countering terrorism thereby indicating that the shift may be in rhetoric rather than strategy. Military tools for countering violent extremism are many, lack of clear identification seems to be a key deficiency in the NSS.
In deterring nuclear aggression apart from others, ballistic missile defence is seen as a core component to be operative in tandem with partner states. Again an omission here appears to be a strategy to meet the challenge from WMD weapons falling in the hands of terrorist groups and non state actors, given that this may be one of the more likely scenarios in the near future.
Given a perception of the increase in anti-access and anti-denial capabilities in countries as China and to some extent even North Korea and Iran, latter in the critical Persian Gulf oil SLOCs, there is considerable emphasis on this aspect termed as, defeating aggression. Space and cyber space also form a part of this domain and capability building to ensure unrestricted use of the global commons has been emphasised.
In terms of regional and international cooperation, the NSS clearly seeks, "expanded military cooperation with India on nonproliferation, safeguarding the global commons and countering terrorism," as a component of building cooperative partnerships in Asia. Progressing a cooperative relationship with China while monitoring the growth of Chinese military power is another arm in this paradigm apart from strengthening existing coalition in North Asia with Japan and South Korea and building relations with diverse states in South Asia to include Vietnam.
Translating national objectives into joint capabilities by creating tailor made, networked forces in all domains, land, maritime, air, space and cyber is the overall theme. Second strike capable nuclear and special forces would be the other key components of capability given the wider nature of threats envisaged.
Finally the core area of emphasis is management of an all volunteer force which can achieve given objectives in an uncertain and diverse environment requiring matching capabilities. The dimension of human resources for meeting the military challenges with competition for talent would remain a core concern of the US military therefore the focus on higher leadership as well.
The United States NSS 2011 is a far more pragmatic articulation which takes into account the possible current and future challenges and capabilities than the one in 2004. This looks beyond currency of engagements in Iraq and Afghanistan, outlines core challenges conventional and sub conventional and provides a plan to meet the same.
The Indian military establishment must outline a road map to profit from American engagement by evolving a paradigm of cooperation without forsaking autonomy and balancing with our traditional partners to align national as well as global interests in the, 'multi nodal' world. Such an Indian military strategy or a blueprint will facilitate building deterrence and enable us to contribute to the global commons in a structured manner and is long overdue.

Sgt 'H' Higgins
Sgt H Higgins passed out of commando training in 1983 and since then spent his entire service career in the Third Commando Brigade Royal Marines. His first draft was to K Company 42 Commando Royal Marines where he spent a very successful four years becoming AWT (Arctic Warfare Trained), JWT (Jungle Warfare Trained) and completed two tour in Northern Ireland. He joined 40 Commando Royal Marines, or The Sunshine Boys as they were known at that time, and took part in a cross training exercise in the Mediterranean with Special Forces. Sgt Higgins enjoyed the exercise and experience immensely has very fond memories of Portugal! His return to the UK was followed by a draft to 45 Commando Royal Marines in Scotland. Sgt Higgins served ten years in 45 Commando qualifying as a sniper and JWI (Jungle Warfare Instructor). During the Gulf War he was involved in Operation Haven where 45 Commando helped the Kurdish people return to their homes from the hills where they were taking sanctuary. Sgt Higgins returned to Belize, where he had undertaken his jungle training, for six months as a member of the last Operational Tour the British Forces carried out. He returned to the UK, suntanned and with just enough time to unpack his kit, before going back to Northern Ireland during the cease-fire. In 1998 the Corps called for Sgt Higginss professional skills at the Commando Training Centre Royal Marines where he served for two years prior to joining Headquarters Band Service. During his two years at CTCRM he helped train over 210 men to successfully pass for duty. In his new post as one of the training team at the Royal Marines School of Music he is responsible for the daily instruction of the recruits in the skills that they need such as map reading, signals, field craft and weapon training he said It is now my turn to help keep the skills and standards within the Corps with your sons and daughters. |

To the Heads of the DLC Who Seem More Interested in Following Than Leading: They Too Have Failed and Now are Frantically, Recklessly Trying to Preserve a Power Base Within a Losing Strategy A BUZZFLASH READER COMMENTARY Dear Buzzflash, I have just responded to Al From and Bruce Reed's wrongheaded op-ed piece from several days ago that appeared in the Los Angeles Times [LINK]. I thought it might be of interest to your readers. Thanks for all of your great work, Sincerely, Stuart Finkel * * * Dear Los Angeles Times and Heads of the DLC: I was deeply distressed to read Al From and Bruce Reed's divisive and unhelpful article about how Democratic "activists" are "out of step" with the Democratic "rank and file." Their continued (intentional?) miscomprehension of what motivates Americans, and especially Democrats, is enormously harmful to the Party. The myths that they perpetuate about liberal "activists" may as well have been written by Karl Rove (and most definitely serve his interests). Your declaration (in the earlier version of this piece posted on your website) that "Real Democrats are real people, not activist elites," is so infuriating that I can barely respond to it. In the Los Angeles Times, you write, "The fact is, 'the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party,' as former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean likes to call it, is an aberration, a modern-day version of the old McGovern wing of the party, defined principally by weakness abroad and elitist interest-group liberalism at home." If you were ever to attend a Dean Meetup (even for the purpose of opposition research), you would see nothing but real people there. I am a real person, as is my wife, as is our two year-old son. Neither of us has ever participated in any political campaign or donated to any candidate before. Our household income is less than $50,000. We are not even close to being "activist elites" (one of the many Roveian phrases in your article). The people who are attracted to the Dean campaign are precisely the kinds of grassroots activists that the Democratic Party needs to get involved (or re-involved) in politics. Your snide dismissal of our enthusiasm is extremely counter-productive. We are not wide-eyed radicals, just taking off our turtle suits from the latest WTO protest (they are more likely to be supporting Kucinich, or even Nader, but I don't think it is wise to dismiss them either). We are the rank and file. We are ordinary Americans (it would be far more appropriate to apply your "activist elites" epitaph to the leaders of the DLC, needless to say), who have been energized by the willingness of Howard Dean to do what the DLC and the Democratic leaders in Washington have been so unwilling to do: match George W. Bush word for word, and call every lie he tells a lie. Is it in your interest to distort Howard Dean's record as if you were Fox News talking heads? Do you not realize that he is closer to your positions than he is to Paul Wellstone's? That he represents a fiscal conservatism very close to Bill Clinton's? That he now supports the death penalty? That he is more conservative than liberal on gun control? That his opposition to the Iraq war does not mean that he is weak on defense but rather that he was smart enough not to accept Bush's lies for the truth? (Much like Bob Graham, I might add, whose courage on this issue has been a breath of fresh air.) That those who support the Dean candidacy see him precisely as a pragmatist and not an "ideologue"? Finally, it is extremely counterproductive of you to alienate all of those (55,000 and counting) who have been energized by the Dean campaign. If Joe Lieberman wins the nomination, don't you want to reach out to us, to use our fierce desire to get rid of George W. Bush on his behalf? And if Howard Dean does win the nomination, would you rather have four more disastrous years of the Bush presidency? Don't you realize that your bold claims that he will be another McGovern, another Mondale, will feed directly into the Republican/cable news echo chamber and become a self-fulfilling prophecy? Please don't divide the Democratic Party any more than it already is. We need to marshal our forces together to get rid of this disastrous administration. We may disagree on what candidate we support, and the primaries are all about disagreeing on the issues and selecting the candidate we favor most, but do this in a way that furthers the interest of your candidate and the Party, not Karl Rove. Sincerely, A BUZZFLASH READER COMMENTARY * * * BuzzFlash Note: BuzzFlash Has One Question for the DLC. Except for Bill Clinton, Your Strategy Has Been a Losing One. Who Controls the White House and Congress? Look at the Election of 2002. Case Closed. And Bill Clinton Won Because He Was a Fighter, a Charismatic Candidate and a Brilliant Strategist. The DLC Was Just Window Dressing. The DLC Preaches a Policy of Following the Polls Like One Husky Sniffing the Behind of Another. That's Not Leadership. That's Just Butt Sniffing. Additional BuzzFlash Note: Just for the record, BuzzFlash has not endorsed a Democratic candidate yet -- and we may not. At some point we might, but for the moment, we prefer to let democracy take its course. | |||||

The Trust has adopted policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent selective disclosure of the Funds' portfolio holdings to third parties. Each Fund discloses its top ten portfolio holdings on a monthly basis approximately 15 business days after month end by posting this information on the Trust's website, and substantially all of its portfolio holdings on a quarterly basis through reports to shareholders or filings with the SEC within 60 days after quarter end. Other disclosures of portfolio holdings information will only be made following a determination by the Funds' Chief Compliance Officer that the disclosures are for a legitimate business purpose (such as to service providers or broker-dealers in connection with the performance of services for the Funds) and that the recipient has been notified that it is subject to a duty of confidentiality and may not trade in securities on the basis of non-public information that may be included in these disclosures. The Trustees periodically review information regarding the nature of such disclosures and recipients in order to provide oversight of this function. Service providers that are currently authorized for disclosure of information are the Trust's Adviser, Distributor, Transfer Agent, Custodian(s), Auditors, Accountants, Counsel and each of their respective affiliates and advisers. Any additional parties to whom portfolio holdings information is disclosed will be reported to the Board of Trustees. The Trust's policies and procedures prohibit any person or entity from receiving compensation or consideration of any kind in connection with any disclosures of portfolio holdings. The Trust believes that the foregoing procedures substantially eliminate the likelihood of conflicts between the interests of shareholders and affiliates of the Trust.
Third Avenue Management has developed a Business Continuity Plan on how we will respond to events that significantly disrupt our business. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions is unpredictable, we will have to be flexible in responding to actual events as they occur. With that in mind, we are providing you with this information on our business continuity plan.
Contacting Us - If after a significant business disruption you cannot contact us as you usually do at 1-800-441-6580, you should visit our web site at www.thirdave.com.
Our Business Continuity Plan - We plan to quickly recover and resume business operations after a significant business disruption and respond by safeguarding our employees and property, making a financial and operational assessment, protecting the firm's books and records, and allowing our customers to transact business. In short, our business continuity plan is designed to permit our firm to resume operations as quickly as possible, given the scope and severity of the significant business disruption.
Our business continuity plan addresses: data back up and recovery; all mission critical systems; financial and operational assessments; alternative communications with customers, employees, and regulators; alternate physical location of employees; critical supplier, contractor, bank and counter-party impact; regulatory reporting; and assuring our customers prompt access to their funds and securities if we are unable to continue our business.
Varying Disruptions - Significant business disruptions can vary in their scope, such as only our firm, a single building housing our firm, the business district where our firm is located, the city where we are located, or the whole region. Within each of these areas, the severity of the disruption can also vary from minimal to severe. In a disruption to only our firm or a building housing our firm, we will transfer our operations to a local site when needed and expect to recover and resume business within 4 to 12 hours. In a disruption affecting our business district, city, or region, we will transfer our operations to a site outside of the affected area, and recover and resume business within 12 to 24 hours. In either situation, we plan to continue in business, and notify you through our web site www.thirdave.com. If the significant business disruption is so severe that it prevents us from remaining in business, we will assure our customer's prompt access to their funds and securities.

Electric bicycles are the world's best-selling electric vehicles with sales expected to reach over 30 million units in 2012. E-bicycle sales volumes are being driven by macroeconomic trends such as the growth of urbanization and the increasing need for low-cost transportation in developing markets. Additionally, the e-bicycle market is very broad, with a number of manufacturers offering different styles including throttle-controlled drive trains, pedal-assist electric bicycles (or pedelecs), and scooter-style electric bicycles. E-bicycle component companies have successfully lowered the cost of entry for manufacturers looking to enter the market. However, the market in North America and Latin America continues to struggle with a weak distribution network and modest demand. As a result, the e-bicycle market is experiencing an accelerated rate of acquisitions and business failures.
China is the largest market for e-bicycles and 92% of all e-bicycle sales are within China. The vast majority of the e-bicycles sold in China utilize sealed lead acid (SLA) batteries. While this has resulted in extremely low cost e-bicycles in China, it has also led to a number of challenges including e-bicycle traffic congestion, lead contamination, and manufacturers effectively ignoring laws relating to e-bicycles speed and weight limits.
This Pike Research report provides a comprehensive analysis of the worldwide e-bicycle and e-bicycle battery industry including an examination of market forces, technology issues, government policy influences, the competitive landscape, and key drivers of growth. The study includes global forecasts for e-bicycle units and e-bicycle batteries through 2017, segmented by world region and key countries.

Commissioner Search
By Tony McVeigh
Frankfort, KY – The Kentucky Board of Education, which continues its search for a new state education commissioner, is meeting in closed session Thursday in Lexington. Kentucky Public Radio's Tony McVeigh has a preview.
Now that the school board has narrowed the list of candidates to 12, it will meet privately to discuss feedback from the applicants' references. Lisa Gross of the Education Department says another round of interviews could come next week.
And if they do that, it most likely would mean they will cull down the list of 12 people that they interviewed to a smaller group, because that's more manageable to do more interviews.
The board is on a tight timeline because it wants a new commissioner in place by August 1st. Former Commissioner Jon Draud resigned late last year for health reasons. Former deputy commissioner Kevin Noland is serving as interim commissioner.

Sweetness O'Hara (Zoe Kravitz) is the 17-year-old daughter of a troubled and ethnically diverse couple; her father (Jason Clarke), who is white, is caring but suffers from violent mood swings, while her African-American mother (Yolonda Ross) struggles with severe emotional issues and eventually abandons the household.

While her school counselor (Tim Blake Nelson) believes she can make something of herself, Sweetness is more interested in immediate survival than her long-term future, and she allies herself with Roland (Tariq Trotter), who lures her into the world of drug dealing.

The budding romance between a rising U.S. congressman and a gifted ballet dancer is unexpectedly complicated by otherworldly forces seeking to drive them apart by altering the very fabric of reality in this high-concept sci-fi thriller based on a story by famed author Philip K. Dick. David Norris (Matt Damon) is a rising New York congressmen whose everyman charisma has earned him a loyal following among locals. One night, after suffering a crushing political defeat, David is rehearsing his concession speech in a hotel bathroom when out of a stall wanders Elise (Emily Blunt), who was hiding out from security guards after crashing a wedding. The chemistry between David and Elise is instant and electric. But as fast as she appeared, Elise has vanished, leaving David to wonder if he will ever see her again. A few days later, as if by chance, David is boarding a bus for work when he spots Elise in a window seat. Though he manages to get her number this time, David is terrified when he arrives at his new job and discovers a mysterious group of men performing an unusual procedure on his paralyzed co-workers. Informed by the imposing and sharp-dressed Richardson (John Slattery) that he has just seen behind a curtain that few will ever know even exists, David agrees never to tell anyone of their encounter or talk to Elise again lest his entire memory be completely erased. But three years later, when David spots Elise walking down the street from the window of a city bus, he can't resist the urge to rekindle their romance. Unfortunately for the two young lovers, the mysterious agents at the Adjustment Bureau are determined to keep them apart at all costs in order to ensure there is no deviation from the master plan drawn up by "The Chairman" for the future of all humankind. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Michael Clayton (George Clooney) handles all of the dirty work for a major New York law firm, arranging top-flight legal services and skirting through loopholes for ethically questionable clients. But when a fellow "fixer" decides to turn on the very firm they were hired to clean up for, Clayton finds himself at the center of a conspiratorial maelstrom. Once an ambitious D.A., Clayton is now a shell of his former dynamic self, thanks to a divorce, an unfortunate business venture, and astronomical debt. Though he longs to leave the cutthroat, ethically dubious world of corporate law behind, Clayton's poor financial situation and devotion to firm head Marty Bach (Sydney Pollack) leave him little choice but to remain on the job and tough it out. Meanwhile, litigator Karen Crowder (Tilda Swinton) finds her entire company's future hinging on the outcome of a multi-billion-dollar settlement overseen by Clayton's friend, star lawyer Arthur Edens (Tom Wilkinson). When Edens snaps and decides to blow the whistle on the questionable case, sabotaging the defense, Clayton must decide between his loyalty and his conscience. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Inspired by author Eric Schlosser's New York Times best-seller of the same name, director Richard Linklater's ensemble drama examines the health issues and social consequences of America's love affair with fast food and features an all-star cast that includes Greg Kinnear, Ethan Hawke, Kris Kristofferson, Patricia Arquette, and Luis Guzman. Mickey's is the most popular fast-food chain in America, and The Big One is the top-selling burger that put them on the map. When the higher-ups at Mickey's corporate offices learn that the frozen meat patties used to make the wildly popular burger have somehow been tainted with contaminated meat, they send marketing executive Don Henderson (Kinnear) on an urgent mission to ensure quality control and find out precisely how their product became compromised. It's a long way from the Southern California boardroom to the immigrant slaughterhouses, though, and the further Henderson works his way through the bustling feedlots and toward the ubiquitous restaurant sites that have become a staple of modern culture, the more he begins to realize just how dangerous convenience can become when it leads to blissfully ignorant complacency. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

The war on drugs has been lost, and when a reluctant undercover cop is ordered to spy on those he is closest to, the toll that the mission takes on his sanity is too great to comprehend in director Richard Linklater's rotoscoped take on Philip K. Dick's classic novel. With stratospheric concern over national security prompting paranoid government officials to begin spying on citizens, trust is a luxury and everyone is a suspected criminal until proven otherwise. Bob Arctor (Keanu Reeves) is a narcotics officer who is issued an order to spy on his friends and report back to headquarters. In addition to being a cop, though, Arctor is also an addict. His drug of choice is a ubiquitous street drug called Substance D, a drug known well for producing split personalities in its users. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Add Nadja to top of Queue
This stylish combination of expressionistic horror and deadpan black comedy centers on the activities of a beautiful female vampire on the streets of New York City. Playing fast and loose with the Dracula legend, the film examines the legendary count's children, particularly the alluring and mysterious Nadja (Elina Lowensohn). At the film's beginning, Nadja is celebrating her father's demise and hoping to begin a new life. She hopes that this life will include Lucy (Galaxy Craze), a spunky young woman that she seduces after an encounter in a New York bar. Unfortunately, Lucy is already married, to the nephew of eccentric vampire hunter Van Helsing (Peter Fonda), who disposed of Nadja's father and has now set his sights on capturing the daughter. Matters are further complicated when Nadja's brother Edgar (Jared Harris), a vampire who wishes to give up his blood-sucking nature, also becomes involved. Gorgeously shot by cinematographer Jim Denault in a mixture of 35mm black-and-white and low-budget Pixelvision video, the film resembles a combination of the surrealist visions of co-producer David Lynch and the quirky humor and stylized sensibility of Hal Hartley. The convoluted narrative sometimes fails to gel, and the self-conscious, arty approach will not appeal to audiences looking for conventional thrills, but those with a taste for the unusual may find the film an appealing contemporary spin on a familiar legend. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

Another Girl, Another Planet
In this short independent feature, an ordinary-looking guy proves to be an unusually successful womanizer, and his East Village apartment begins to assume aspects of Grand Central Station. He is so attractive to one of the women he seduces that he has to let her know in a forceful way that he's not available for long-term romance. In addition to his other good qualities, he's a bit of a jerk. This is why, by the end of the film, his rejection by a woman he has come to care for comes as such a pleasant surprise. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Screenwriter/electrician Abbe Wool makes her directorial debut with the offbeat road movie Roadside Prophets. Brooding factory worker Joe (X front man John Doe) takes a road trip in order to scatter the ashes of his co-worker Dave Coleman (David Anthony Marshall). Riding his vintage Harley Davidson, Joe leaves Los Angeles and heads for a small Nevada town called El Dorado to fulfill Dave's final wish. His journey is complicated by a small fry named Sam (the Beastie Boys' Adam Horovitz), a wannabe biker who continually lights off fireworks and nurtures an odd obsession with Motel 9. Joe also has to cope with making daily phone calls to Angie (voice of Sonna Chavez), his co-worker back in L.A. who is giving him sick days in exchange for the promise of a hot date. While traveling through the desert, Joe and Sam meet various eccentric characters played by the likes of David Carradine, John Cusack, Timothy Leary, and Arlo Guthrie. They eventually end up at their destination, which turns out to be a washed-up gambling town called Jackpot. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi

If I could get rid of the twenty or so point cards in my wallet, I'd be happy as a loon, and I'd even be able to carry around all those other point cards that I leave at home because I don't use them often enough to warrant carrying them around. cjs -- Curt Sampson <cjs_at_cynic.net> +81 90 7737 2974 http://www.NetBSD.org Don't you know, in this new Dark Age, we're all light. --XTC This mail was sent to address Yang.Liu_at_sseg.de Need archives?

Andre Ellington Scouting Report
Position: | RB |
Conference: | ACC |
School: | Clemson Tigers |
Year/Status: | Senior |
Jersey Number: | #23 |
Height & Weight: | 5'9 - 195 lbs. |
Draft Prediction: | Third Round |
40-Yard Dash | 4.61 |
Vertical jump | 34.0 |
Broad jump | 122 |
2013 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Andre Ellington, RB, Clemson
Ellington is undersized, but makes the most of it with near-elite agility and top-end speed. Should have no trouble running close to a 4.4 in the 40-yard dash. Doesn't have a ton of moves in the open field. He prefers to find a crease and hit it hard. Missed a lot of practice and a fair number of games in his collegiate career.
Not afraid of contact. Too often tries to find the outside to break off a big play. Goes against the grain too much. Must learn to fall forward and take what he is given more often. Must work on lower body strength, especially churning his legs after first contact. Should have no trouble also contributing as a receiver. Ball security is a fair concern and must learn to carry the ball in the outside arm every time.
Big-play ability is very real. Acceleration is close to excellent. Doesn't exercise much patience with blockers and will occasionally run into their backs or simply fly by them if he can. Average in pass protection.
Ellington projects as a third round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.

A primary school teacher who knocked a female cyclist off her bike was fined £300 for drink driving.
Thomas Hannaway, of Ash Green, Great Chesterford, pleaded guilty at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court yesterday to driving with excess alcohol on September 15 of last year.
The court heard the offence happened the morning after Hannaway had enjoyed a day of drinking.
Angela Hughes, prosecuting, said at 10am police were called to London Road, Little Chesterford, where Hannaway's silver MGF sports car left the road. A female cyclist had been knocked off her bike, suffering two broken ribs and a punctured lung.
Philippa Dyer, speaking on behalf of the 24-year-old defendant, said: "He's devastated to find himself in court. He'd been out drinking with friends the day before and stopped at about midnight and only ate a pizza during the course of the day.
"He left a considerable amount of time before driving home to get ready to play football. He's not a binge drinker."
She said Hannaway had seen two cyclists and slowed to pass them but felt the car move to the left into the kerb and corrected by swinging to the right, hitting the cyclist.
He then stopped the car.
Hannaway was also ordered to pay a £35 victim surcharge and £80 costs. He was disqualified from driving for 16 months.

A No. 3 seed for the Class B state tennis tournament has lit a fire in two-time state champion Katie Carlson.
The Omaha Duchesne junior, who has won No. 1 singles titles the past two seasons, was listed behind Elkhorn South's Hylan Miller and Omaha Skutt's Teresa Kaiser, respectively, when the brackets were released for the state tournament Thursday and Friday at the Nebraska Tennis Center in Lincoln.
"I guess that is kind of what I get for losing three matches," Carlson said. "I guess just being the three seed is extra motivation. I need to prove I can win for the third time."
Carlson said she was going through a rough patch during a stretch where she lost to Miller, Kaiser and Omaha Central's Giselle Tran, the fourth seed in the Class A tournament.
She was putting too much pressure on herself, playing tight and focusing on all the wrong things.
She's since done extra work outside her high school practices with her longtime coach Doug Greenwald.
"I needed to get out of a funk," Carlson said. "The biggest thing for me is staying positive. Just staying focused and staying within myself and believing I can win."
Duchesne coach Terri Anania said Miller (21-1) and Kaiser (20-4) will be among Carlson's biggest challengers. Last year, as a No. 2 seed, Carlson ousted Miller, who had entered the tournament 30-1, in the championship match 7-5, 6-0.
Carlson (17-3) said her intensity, having a game plan and staying focused has carried her far. She's also light on her feet and not afraid to come to the net.
"Her mental game would be her greatest strength," Anania said.
Carlson said she's loved playing tennis since age 8 or 9. Making it back to the final would mean a lot.
She wants to win now more than ever.
"Having those losses gives me motivation and determination," she said. "I'm willing to do what it takes this Friday."
Elkhorn South and Skutt, Nos. 1 and 2 in the team race last year, have the top seeds in all four divisions. The Storm have top seeds in Miller and defending champions Tiffany Hottman and Emily Fink at No. 1 doubles. Skutt has defending champion Caroline Friedman at No. 2 singles and Lauren Camenzind and Bianca Lowe at No. 2 doubles. Camenzind won last year with Emilee Johnson.
The SkyHawks will enter the tournament on a high note after winning all four titles at the River Cities Conference meet.

Bret Hart News & Notes, Ventura Note, Batista/TMZ, More
By Ryan Clark | March 12, 2010
-- If you plan to attend the Bret Hart book signing in Tempe, Arizona at The Changing Hands Bookstore Wrestlemania weekend, here is what you need to know. You have to buy the book from that store in order to get a ticket for the signing. Also, Hart will not be posing for photos at the signing.
-- On March 26th, Greg Valentine is doing a meet and greet at Angilo's Pizza Springdale in Cincinnati, Ohio at 6PM. For details, call (513) 771-0914.
-- Jesse Ventura on Tuesday's episode of the Howard Stern Show, and stated that he just got done filming a movie for the Wachowski brothers. Here is Ventura's explanation of the filming
"Wait til you hear what they did. They brought me, and they brought Arianna Huffington in after me. Arianna was there, and they had her looking like Cleopatra. What they did Do you remember what John Travolta looked like in that horrible film Battlefield Earth? They put multicolored dreadlocks on me all the way to here. They gave me this crazy beard that was hanging down pointed, looked like Travolta, right? And they put a third eye in the middle of my forehead. Because what this is, is this is a hundred years in the future, and they wanted me to talk about the current war in Iraq and how I felt about it. And so I got to vent, looking like this maniac in this whole outfit."
-- TMZ.com recently caught up with Batista while signing some autographs. A video is on their website.

Security camera but no pc or wifi nearby

I hope someone might have a good idea...
I rent a storage unit in the middle of nowhere and want to set up a security camera, probably on the inside. There's no wifi signal in the area but the unit has power.
Ideally I'd like to be able to view the unit remotely over the web and have some sort of alert that would text me if movement was detected and automatically record what's happening. I've been told this is possible, but I don't have much money for a professional set-up.
If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear from you.
Many thanks, Jx

I thought it would be unlikely if this could be done without internet access. However, a quick Google came up with this, so looks as though it's feasible.

We would like to offer all of the brides that are interested in our studio for their wedding day photography a chance to view wedding images from a real wedding....start to finish and all that happens in-between!
Please pay close attention to the different "Stages" of photography and our ability to capture every moment and wedding detail from multiple perspectives and the use of multiple techniques. A bride might think that all they need are "photo-jurnalism" style images, but there is surely a place and a need for traditional portraits throughout the process.
Also pay close attention to the different styles used....by using multiple size and style camera lenses, we are able to create great images from all angles.
And lastly, you might think that 800 - 1500 images will keep you and your groom away from the guests for too long of a time...think not! We pride ourselves in having such expertise and knowledge in wedding day schedules and imagery, that we can handle all of your portraits...spaced out over the entire day which will keep you from spending long periods of time away from your guests.....30 minutes of pictures directly after your ceremony is the longest period of time you will spend away from the party!
Please call our studio for your wedding consultation where we will create your wedding day portrait schedule! 559-673-8400.
