San Diego Criminal Attorney on Arson
In California Arson and Unlawfully Causing a Fire are proscribed by Penal Code §§ 451 and 452, respectively. PC §451 prohibits the intentional and malicious setting fire to or burning of structures, forest land, and property; whereas PC §452 punishes the same when committed recklessly.
In California, Arson and all the related crimes are aggressively prosecuted, and a conviction may result in incarceration, registration as an arson offender. These consequences can have a serious effect on employment opportunities, eligibility for government assistance, and more. Speak with an experienced San Diego Criminal Attorney to secure the best possible defense and outcome in your case.
Elements of Simple Arson, Aggravated Arson, & Unlawfully Causing a Fire:
To be convicted of Simple Arson (PC §451), the Prosecutor must prove two separate elements:
1. You set fire to or burned a structure, forest land, or property (real or personal, other than structures or forest land).
• Total destruction is not required – any fire damage or destruction resulting, no matter how small, is sufficient.
• Forest land is land covered in brush, partly cleared, forested, or wooded.
• Structures include tents (commercial and public), buildings, bridges, or power plants.
• You may be guilty of Arson even if you burn trash that does not belong to anyone because a person's ownership of the damaged or destroyed property is not an element of Arson.
2. You acted willfully and maliciously;
• Willfully means purposely or intentionally.
• Maliciously means doing a wrong or illegal act intending to harm another, their property, or their property interests.
? Aggravated Arson (PC §451.5) – The Prosecutor must prove:
A. You acted willfully, maliciously, deliberately, and with premeditation;
i. Acting deliberately means that you carefully thought about the consequences of your actions, and knowing those consequences committed the arson.
ii. Acting with premeditation means that you decided to commit the arson before actually carrying out the act.
iii. Note: The test is the extent of thought about the act and consequences, not the length of time ? A decision made spontaneously or impulsively, and without careful reflection, is not a deliberate and premeditated decision. Whether there was deliberation and premeditation is dependent on the person and circumstances.
B. You acted purposely to: (i) injure one or more people; (ii) damage property under circumstances that would likely also injure 1 or more people; or (iii) damage an inhabited structure or dwelling;
AND (Alternatively, C, D, or E)
C. You've been previously convicted of violating §451 in the past 10 years.
D. The fire caused at least $6.5 million in damage cumulatively.
E. 5 or more inhabited structures were damaged due to the fire.
Arson cases cane some particularly complicated, requiring investigations independent of the DA's own experts. Speak with an experienced criminal attorney who can help guide you through your Arson case.To be convicted of Unlawful (Reckless) Arson (PC §452), the Prosecutor must prove that you recklessly set fire to or burned a structure, forest land, or property.
? Recklessness is defined as being aware that:
A. Your actions pose a considerable and unjustifiable risk of causing a fire;
B. Even though you're aware of the risk, you ignore it; and
C. Ignoring that risk grossly deviates from how a reasonable person would have reacted in the same situation
? Note: Recklessness is alternatively defined as:
A. Taking actions that pose a considerable and unjustifiable risk of causing a fire; BUT
B. You weren't conscious of the risk of fire due to your voluntary intoxication (willfully drinking alcohol or taking drugs knowing their intoxicating effects).
An experienced San Diego criminal lawyer is essential to preserving your rights and ensuring that your arson case ends promptly and with the best possible disposition.
Gedulin & Greany have helped clients facing serious felony charges such as Arson and aggravated arson. These cases are prosecuted vigorously by the DA's office and must be taken on with experience and commitment to a good defense.

Great vise made in the USA
Reviewer: A viewer from NEW BRAUNFELS, TX USA
I did a lot of research before buying this vise. This is a great vise, with a lot of metal, only a couple plastic screws. The bobbin rest works great. You can rotate it. I have gone down to size 18 hooks with no problem, but will get the midge jaws for smaller. For the price, made in USA, very little plastic, this is a top notch vise.
I also like the "D" arm and material clips, sold separate, or as a set.
Poor Customer service
Reviewer: A viewer from Georgia
I have one but don't expect much in the way of customer service. I asked for some new screws because..the plastic ones broke..and it being a lifetime warranty deal I figured Peak would help me on something as little as a screw. I was dead wrong....they told me basicly too bad so sad...and told me to find a dealer and purchase more. What kind of lifetime warranty is that???? Would not recommend. There not exactly giving them away and for the money better service is certainly out there.
<i>J. Stockard replies: PEAK Fishing's service manager says he had an email dialogue (back-and-forth 3 times) with this customer to explore whether there might be a warranty issue and to offer options to diagnose and correct the issue. The customer ended the dialogue, apparently satisfied with the information PEAK provided. PEAK has offered to re-open the dialogue to provide a solution.</i>
Well Designed Vise. & Good Customer Service
Reviewer: A viewer from Glendale, AZ US
I initially had problems with the pieces fitting together and contacted Peak. I had to return my Vise to manufacturer, and was impressed that they resolved the problem and returned it within 3 days.
I also have a more expensive rotary vise and prefer to use my Peak vise. The accessablity to the hook because of a smaller profile clamping mechanism allows for easuer tie in of smaller materials near the hook bend.
The C Clamp design allows for securing to very thick table tops or thin table tops... nice design.
I would recommend this vise over other more expensive rotory vises.
Simple and effective; great value!!!!
Reviewer: A viewer from Olympia, WA USA
This vise is an amazing value; very simple and effective. Quick adjustment for hook sizes with a fast and secure locking system. Other vises may have more bells and whistles, but quit honestly they can be overwhelming. I love the simplicity, quality and value of this vise.
Great simple vise
Reviewer: A viewer from Moorhead, MN US
I tied for a long time on a cheap vise you get in a kit. After tying up 100 egg flies in a couple days and had a bruise on my hand I decided it was time for something better.
I've been using this for a while now and its making it more fun to tie flies. I bought the magnum jaws as well. My only small complain is it is a little difficult to change the jaws. I also did have a problem with hooks slipping but I think that was me trying to tie too big of hooks in the standard vise.

The pilot described a touchdown on runway 17 at Tahlequah Municipal Airport as 'normal [on] a calm day.' The airplane began to veer to the right, and the pilot attempted to maintain control of the tailwheel airplane utilizing power and rudder inputs. However, the airplane departed the asphalt runway and bounced into the air. The pilot stated that he maneuvered the airplane back to the runway centerline and 'chopped the power.' The airplane then became uncontrollable a second time and veered off the runway to the right at a 45 degree angle. The airplane contacted an unoccupied Stinson airplane that was tied down on the ramp. Both airplanes came to rest upright with the engine and propeller of the accident airplane embedded in the baggage compartment of the Stinson. The pilot stated that the airplane had a flat main right tire on an earlier flight, and he 'believed that the right main tire was low or flat at touchdown.' Examination of the airplane by an FAA inspector confirmed that the right main tire was deflated.

Grecian War
Two Greektown Groups Clash Over Roles in Community
Sitting in an armchair, the Baltimore firefighter reflects on how he always knew his Greektown teetered in the balance. The neighborhood, located in East Baltimore in the shadow of the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, has long been a stable mix of residential and commercial interests known for its abundance of Greek restaurants, coffee shops, and bakeries. But the firefighter, who asks that his name not be used in this story, says he knew the neighborhood could join the ranks of the many gentrified areas of the city just as easily as it could recede into yet another swath of blight--after all, examples of both lie just blocks from his front door.
But in early March something happened that made him fear the neighborhood was going downhill, not up. His 14-year-old son was asked to join a gang. He says his son refused to give him the name of the person who approached him. Rather than go up the street for a "talk" with the gang recruiter, the firefighter says he's opted to get his son involved in soccer and lacrosse programs--outside of Greektown.
"The less time he spends in the neighborhood, the better off we are," he says. To people like this firefighter, crime and gangs are big issues in the neighborhood that have long been ignored by Greektown leaders. Over the past year, a new grass-roots neighborhood association, the Greater Greektown Neighborhood Alliance, has come onto the scene poking a stubby finger into the status quo, trying to make some noise about the area's problems and chastising the other neighborhood organization--the Greektown Community Development Corp. (CDC)--for being more interested in beautifying the business area and promoting the neighborhood than in addressing the problems faced by those living in residential parts of the community. The Greektown CDC wants to dress up its main street, Eastern Avenue; the neighborhood alliance wants to fight the hard-to-win battle against crime creeping into the blocks behind that main artery.
The CDC rejects the upstart neighborhood association's assertions.
"Seven years ago, our community was at the tipping point," says John Gavrilis, CEO of the CDC. "We were plagued with crime, there was disinvestment. If we didn't invest in the quality of life, we would lose our community, and we were able to turn that around."
But Neighborhood Alliance members say that success and status have put the corporation out of touch with residents' everyday concerns. An example that members of the neighborhood alliance like to point out as evidence of this disconnect is an incident that happened in early March. Someone spray-painted gang graffiti on the railroad bridge over Eastern Avenue, which has long served as an iconic welcome sign for visitors to the neighborhood. Within one day, the graffiti disappeared, painted over as if it never happened. Members of the Greater Greektown Neighborhood Alliance say they suspect that the Greektown CDC quickly cleaned up the tags over the weekend, to avoid dealing with what the graffiti signified.
"That's an exact metaphor for this neighborhood," says Todd Bonicker, founder of the neighborhood alliance and a former volunteer and paid consultant of the CDC. "It's painted over. It's whitewashed to make it look like there is nothing wrong."
According to Bonicker and other members of the alliance, part of the problem is that the leadership of the CDC, including CEO Gavrilis and President Stelios Spiliadis, do not live in Greektown, so important decisions about the welfare of the neighborhood are left to outsiders. Gavrilis, formerly commander of the Baltimore Police Department's Southeast District and currently deputy chief of the Maryland Transit Authority Police, grew up in Greektown, and members of his family still live there, but he now lives elsewhere (Gavrilis would not reveal where). Spiliadis lives in Fells Point, where he co-owns the Black Olive restaurant; he served as the chair of the city's Planning Commission under Mayor Kurt Schmoke. Bonicker and other members of the neighborhood alliance paint the CDC as an old boys' network that serves the interests of the neighborhood's merchants and restaurants by trying to reel in high-end development, such as Athena Square, a project of $280,000-$340,000 townhomes under construction on Oldham Street. So Bonicker thought it might be time to start a new organization that had residents' best interests in mind.
"I figured we could start our own community association, which would do what the CDC should have been doing," he says, "which would take into account the needs of the neighborhood and the desires of the people who actually live here, as a opposed to having a board made up of people [who] decided for us what we should be doing in the neighborhood."
As its name suggests, Greektown is the heart of Baltimore's Greek community, and it has been ever since World War II when Greek immigrants arrived in the city to take jobs at Bethlehem Steel. At that time, Greektown was an insular community where residents could take their time assimilating to American culture. Though many of the original immigrant families, especially those who have prospered, have moved out, the neighborhood still hosts a bustling Greek ambiance and one of the city's most robust folk festivals each June, complete with traditional food, music, and dancing that gives Greektown the air of an extended family reunion.
But as demographics in Baltimore change, Greektown also finds itself home to newer immigrant populations--the neighborhood is home to a burgeoning Latino community, as well as Indians, Koreans, and Bosnians. Community leaders are trying to tie Greektown to the success stories of Canton and Harbor East, but Greektown is still very much a blue-collar community.
"It's still the real world," says former state senator and current Greektown resident Perry Sfikas, who helped start the Greektown CDC in 1998 to draw investment to the neighborhood back when many of the original families started moving to the suburbs to escape the inconveniences of urban living, including drug dealing. "It has not become a Disney World for rich folks."
Many of the families who left Greektown back then didn't sell their city properties, holding onto their homes so they could pass them on to their children. Instead, says Jack Dawson, a former reporter for The Sun and a member of the new neighborhood alliance, those homes have become rental units with absentee landlords. Dawson recalls being asked at a CDC meeting what Greektown needed. He says he blurted out, "More Greeks."
Stelios Spiliadis watches his son Dimitris clip back grape vines he has grown next to a street tree outside his Fells Point restaurant, the Black Olive. He says he feels allegiance to Greektown even though he doesn't live there.
"When I want to feel Greek, I go to Greektown," he says, rattling his komboloi, Greek worry beads. "I sit in the Greek coffeehouse, talk Greek, drink my Greek coffee, read my Greek newspaper, curse in Greek. I've been doing that since 1965, and they say I'm an outsider."
He says the CDC exercises smart tactics by assembling prominent members of the community to represent the neighborhood's interests. The board includes, for example, John Angelos (son of Orioles owner/trial lawyer Peter Angelos), Gavrilis, and 1st District City Councilman James Kraft. Who better to fight crime issues in Greektown, he wonders, than the former Southeast District police commander?
"The real story is how can we can save Greektown?" Spiliadis asks. "How does an ethnic neighborhood that thrived during Bethlehem Steel make the transition into a service community, remain viable, and still retain its color?"
Gavrilis, target of much of the spleen venting about the CDC, laughs when he hears the story about the gang-related graffiti on the Eastern Avenue overpass.
"Whitewashing," he says, claiming no knowledge of the graffiti incident. He says that if he did know about the graffiti, however, he would have wanted it covered up. "That just shows their ignorance. If the Crips put their graffiti on the walls, you're just asking the Bloods to challenge that."
Gavrilis says he and the CDC have made efforts to address crime problems in Greektown. For example, in 2001 he helped get video-surveillance cameras installed in Greektown, making it one of the first neighborhoods in the city to have them. He says due to the organization's work Greektown is one of the only neighborhoods in the city to hire off-duty police to patrol the streets. When he signed on as CEO of the organization in 2001, there were 70 homes identified as being tied to drug activity. After a coordinated effort by the police and the Greektown CDC, he says, most of them have been eliminated. There are three houses left, he says, and these are in the cross hairs. The group has also set up a gang-prevention program that has about 50 participating kids, he says.
"There is not a neighborhood in the city that does not have a gang problem," Gavrilis says. "Ours is at a minimum."
Gavrilis refutes the notion that the Greektown CDC is an elite group. He says the organization pursues all neighborhood problems, from trashed allies and landlord disputes to development.
"Anyone who says we are not taking the job seriously is either blind or has another agenda," Gavrilis says, noting that Bonicker has been the source of much of the criticism. "Todd is a disgruntled employee. It's all about money."
In 2001, Bonicker started volunteering for the CDC as a housing organizer, dealing with zoning issues and problem properties. In 2003, he became a part-time consultant (he describes his position as de facto community organizer). He testified on behalf of the organization at zoning hearings. He organized cleanups, set up police cookouts, and worked on creative intervention programs to fight drug dealing.
Bonicker says the quality of service provided by the organization deteriorated when Gavrilis took a full-time position working for the MTA Police in 2004. The new job meant that he no longer worked in the CDC's Eastern Avenue office during the day, so Bonicker says his own work load increased, but not his salary. In December 2007, Bonicker says he submitted a proposal to go full time, for an annual salary of $36,000; he says Gavrilis counteroffered with less money than he was making as a consultant. Bonicker says he felt insulted and quit.
Gavrilis says the organization could not afford the salary Bonicker proposed. Public tax records filed by the organization with the IRS indicate that it took in only $98,213 in revenue in 2006 and had $260,490 in expenses. He says Bonicker went to board members with complaints. "He wanted my job, to be honest," says Gavrilis, who the corporation's tax records show earns $95,000 from his job at the Greektown CDC. "He was politicking for my job."
In January 2007, Bonicker, Dawson, and neighborhood activist Don Brotherton presided over the first meeting of the new Greater Greektown Neighborhood Alliance. That first meeting drew about 70 residents, they say; a recent meeting held in April attracted about 15 people who talked about mysterious drums found along the railroad tracks and a suspected prostitution ring operating out of a quiet block of Quail Street. A representative from the Baltimore City Board of Liquor License Commissioners came to the meeting and promised to help the group keep tabs on local bars.
Before the neighborhood alliance, Dawson says, "you felt like the guy with his finger in the dike," because there was so little cooperation from the Greektown CDC to deal with quality of life issues. For example, he says, he tried to get support from the CDC to push for a sound barrier to be erected along Quail Street, to block traffic noise and exposure from nearby I-895. He says he got no help at all.
Brotherton, who received citizen of the year citations from Sen. Barbara Mikulski's office for his work in the neighborhood, felt abandoned by the CDC when he tried to confront drug dealing on his street and received no support from the organization.
"I don't want to move," he says. "But I want a place to live where I can walk down the street, where I don't have to be intimidated."
"We're not running a community-relations campaign," Dawson adds. "We're here to stem this stuff before it becomes a problem."

The aircraft was on an instrument training flight at the time of the occurrence. The flight was cleared to an altitude of 6,000 feet on departure. The trainee reported that as the aircraft climbed through 4,500 feet, with the instructor flying the aircraft, "the airplane pitched up, and rolled to the left followed by a pitch down, and a roll back to wings level, then a pitch back up and to the left." The instructor stated that as the aircraft climbed through that altitude, "the aircraft suddenly nosedived for about 3-4 seconds and pitched up into a climb." Both pilots reported that they susbsequently felt the pitch control stuck in a pitch-up position, and that they had to hold forward pressure to hold the nose down (the instructor stated both pilots had to apply full forward pressure to prevent a stall.) The instructor further reported that the aircraft would not roll; the trainee reported that the controls were stuck in roll to the left. The pilots reported that the instructor subsequently attempted to trim the aircraft nose-down, without success. The pilots declared an emergency with ATC and subsequently elected to land in a field directly in front of the aircraft by utilizing rudder and power for control, which they accomplished successfully. The pilots reported in their initial interview with the FAA inspector that they did not have the autopilot on at the time of the occurrence, and that they made no attempts to disengage the autopilot during the incident. Post-incident examinations of the flight controls, trim, and autopilot operation by the operator, an FAA inspector, and the autopilot manufacturer did not disclose any evidence of malfunctions or abnormal flight control or autopilot operation.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this incident to be:

Ohio State Gains Commitment From Conner Crowell
That a recruiting battle between Ohio State and Penn State over the services of a kid in the Old Line State bounced the Buckeyes' Way is interesting. Maryland is a faithful pipeline to Happy Valley. The in-state Terrapins are uncompetitive and the only other presence regionally is Virginia Tech. Penn State invests heavily in Maryland recruits to the point where Maryland can probably be considered an annex of the Keystone State. Further, Larry Johnson Sr. — Penn State's recruiting ace — is largely responsible for recruiting the state. Johnson threw in the kitchen sink to get a commitment to add to an otherwise very light 2011 recruiting class that has just four members so far. Coordination problems are rumored to be plaguing Penn State's staff this recruiting campaign, to the point where the assistants can't agree who to offer and who to recruit. Crowell was one such target, it appears, and was getting the overtures that Larry Johnson, Sr. gives out. Further, Andre Dupree, a fullback at Penn State, went to the same high school as Crowell, adding to the pressure.
"I just felt like I needed to be different. A lot of people around here just get that Penn State offer and go to Penn State. I wanted to be one of the first to go to Ohio State and to make a difference."
However, Fickell, who recruited Crowell and will be his future position coach, came hard as well. With Ohio State's class just about full, the coaching staff can lock on their remaining targets and keep in frequent contact as well. It paid off for a happy Jim Tressel.
"The first person I told was coach Tressel, he was very excited to have me commit," Crowell said. "He said I've got what they're looking for, family-wise and academic-wise and of course football-wise. They're just really excited to have me this year, and I'm excited to be there."
Crowell ultimately chose between Ohio State and Penn State, but had other options. Stanford was under strong consideration until late in the game. Maryland, North Carolina, West Virginia and several others offered as well. Crowell is a nice pick-up, the first linebacker in the class. The coaching staff is interested in potentially adding another as well. They remain in contact with Anthony Wallace (Dallas, TX) and Ejuan Price (Pittsburgh, PA).

Universal Desktop Daily - Friday, January 05, 2007
Summary: Flex 2.0.1 finally arrives, online advertising and rich media, Terry Ryan on predictions for technology at Wharton in 2007, new WPF and "WPF/E" blogs and what the heck is 'Technology X'?
TOPICS: Browser
Hey, look at this, the first UDD of the new year. I'm sorry I've been slacking this week with these but I've been swamped with work. I still have a lot of fun doing them so hopefully you enjoy a few of the links from time to time.
- Flex 2.0.1 has arrived and Ted Patrick, the Flex Evangelist, has some great information about what this means for RIA developers.
- This post about online video advertising caught my eye. He has some good information about online video and I like his thoughts (and concerns) about where this is headed. Video is here to stay, but I hope we move towards a much nice platform for distributing it and stay away from annoying popups.
- Terrence Ryan of the Wharton School has some predictions for Web Applications in their environment this year. I used to be a Wharton developer which is why this caught my eye but I also think Terry brings some "consumer cred" to the predictions. I especially liked "We will roll out at least one RIA that didn't actually need to be rich."
- Thanks to Rob and K. Scott I found a couple new WPF and "WPF/E" blogs. The first is Eric Lee's blog that will cover Visual Studio Team System and WPF and the second is WPF Wonderland which looks like it's going to be a great resource for WPF and WPF/E. Subscribe and subscribed.
- Mary Jo Foley points out a weird occurrence on the Mix 07 site, a mention of Technology X. I'm not sure what this is, but my curiosity has been piqued. Any ideas?
Kick off your day with ZDNet's daily email newsletter. It's the freshest tech news and opinion, served hot. Get it.

Want faster broadband soon? Move to Kent, says BT
BT will dip its toe in the rapid waters of fibre-to-the-home broadband this year, when it'll run optic cables to 10,000 new homes being built at Ebbsfleet in Kent. The pilot will offer a maximum 100Mbit/s connection (not 100MB per second as The Guardian has reported) from August, BT's Openreach division said today. Wholesale …
All very nice.
Rather than wasting money on boosting small parts of the country's infrastructure, how about looking at why none of us existing mug, sorry customers, are getting no where near the speeds we are paying through the nose for? Oh yes sorry, fixing things makes it look obvious that they were broken in the first place and doesn't make for good PR.
Thanks to all those who pointed out, with varying degrees of wit, that the article missed a "p" and originally said "wholesale rices". It's been fixed.
Anyone who subsequently posts anything about grains of truth, having a paddy, cereal errors, or any other Oryzan punnery will be banned from reading for a month.
- Chris
15 or 30GB per month? That would be pretty cool on a 100Mbps line. Not.
Point being, these days the line speeds don't mean much if not told about the "fair use policy" limitations. Paris because it's hot, nevertheless.
Megabasmatis per second?
Never mind about faster, down here in Cornwall we could do with anything other than dial up! ADSL isn't available to a good portion of us rural folk mainly due to Aluminium cables, DAC's units and bodged cable runs!
I'm now on the 3G network and I think it may well be the easiest route to faster speeds.
Still ruled by a Monoploy!
Thinks like a Monoploy.
Talks like a Monoploy.
Acts like a monopoly.
If I didnt know beter I'd say it was a deliberate government ploy to subjugate us ?
When will those we've put in charge, realise this, and break em up, or make em pay for licences by infrastructure investments, ot something creative like that.
BT = Bloody Theives,
Bitterly Twisted !
First Past the Post Loses
The key problem for large scale fibre upgrades[1] in the UK is that the first company to raise the money and actually do it will never get a return on investment.
There are a couple of reasons behind this. Firstly the regulator would ensure 'competition' and force the operator to open the network to competitors. Secondly the government will step in and force the operators to reduce wholesale prices and therefore their wholesale prices to make the service accessible [2].
This is the reason why IMO all fixed line UK telecoms infrastructure (including the NTL kit) should be nationalised and operated by a single company [3] that is not allowed to operate any services on the network. Of course this will never happen...
[1] All this looks like is a slightly more permanant trial than the last few.
[2] Just like they did with broadband, which is largely responsible for the slow progress of ADSL2 (lack of investment funds).
[3] I wouldn't trust the government or the idiots at offcom to do so, so it would have to be a PLC which the uk.gov owns a controlling share.
Looks like a bargain!
try over 33GBP /month for an effective 1200 down /200 up here in Oz.
Paris because the telcos here seem to think we all have that much money.
Remember Sir Iain Vallance's offer..
..way back when, befre ADSL had been heard of? .... to lay fibre to every single home in the country, on condition the goverment removed the restriction on their licence, prohibiting them from carrying TV programmes.
What a pity they werent taken up, cause then they would have been easy to break up.
As it is, the licence restriction was dropped recentl.
Too little too late !
"try over 33GBP /month for an effective 1200 down /200 up here in Oz."
At the rate your government are legislating there will be no content on the net though.
I agree
I agree with Anonymous Coward. I believe all the gas pipes etc. are owned and maintained by Transco, so why not do the same for the telecoms infrastructure
Disagreeing with AC
Why should NTL/Virgin have their backbone taken off them, it was built by private investment, the various companies who did the work ended up being bought out and it is now a wholly owned asset of VM?
Why don't you nationalise the 3g networks as well then, that way you get a far greater coverage across the country than you ever will with cable?
Think about it this way, do you really want to have the government actually trying to run the internet infrastructure in this country? They can barely keep the roads open as it is.
BT had their infrastructure paid for by you and me (and our parents), and as I recall it was everyone bleeting that they couldn't just walk away with the profits that stopped them in their tracks.
Want faster broadband soon?
Not from bloody BT I don't...
Bloody hell, my old home town is going a bit upmarket!
Having been born and brought up in Swanscombe (its that grotty little village next to the shining wonders that is "Ebbsfleet Village" I am astounded by the plans I see for the area. Where we used to play in the woods south of the the village - which were eventually dug up by the cement companies for the chalk underneath - they are planning a rather large housing development! Well I guess its time for the old place to come upmarket...
Here we go again
This topic has been raised many times over the last few months as ofcom have looked into broadband speeds. BT will do these 'trials' to see if it works. They have no intention of actually doing a nationwide roleout of fibre to the home, it would be very expensive to do so, BT would probally go bankrupt just like the companies who made the telecommunications network as we know it today to be BT's. BT doing these trials is just a bit of PR, make it look like they are doing something and keep MP's quiet for a bit. In reality it is just not possible to do a nationwide role out. The more likely option would be fibre to the kerb, which is basically Fibre calbe to the street boxes and then over copper to your house. That would cost BT quite a bit less but still very expensive, enough to put them out of business.
Fibre to the Kerb though probally will happen eventually probally with government pressure but only for people who live in cities where there is money to be made and a lot slow roleout for people outside of it. BT could probally match Virgin Media's network which is Fibre to the kerb because it is quite a large company. Virgin media's network was made by three separate companies, just goes to show how large of a project it is.
Its all about investment and there has to be a lot of it to run fibre, consumers can expect to pay higher prices for broadband when there is invesment into fibre, and it really is question of when, 50 years we probally will have fibre to the home.
Hmm I wonder if Acorn's state-of-the-art Fibre-Optic system it installed way back in Cambridge is still on the go.
That was nice of you Chris
So how come when I point out that the author of http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2007/11/20/ds_lite_bundle_packs/
had used a Nintedo DS original instead of a DS Lite like the article was about, my comments are not published, no thanks, no nothing. Notice the nice pink DS lite in the article? It was a pink DS Original.
Yes I harbor my disgruntlements at this. : - P
RE: Gas Pipes
No, not all gas pipes are owned by Transco (Now called NationalGrid UK), yes the vast majority are, but since 1995 there have been Independent Gas Transporters (IGTs), you'll usually find developers use IGTs to connect homes up to mains gas instead of Transco as they offer lower rates. However the IGTs charge more for the gas to go through their pipes, so you usually have to pay more for your gas if you are connected via an IGT instead of NationGrid UK (Transco).
America has had fibre to the home for a whille now, with the rather original name of FiOS (fibre optic service):
so it must be economically viable to run fibre to the home
If only.........
"Meanwhile, the rest of the UK is being gradually upgraded to a contended ADSL service offering theoretical maximum downstream speeds of 24Mbit/s over copper wires."
Dream on! BT's very own CTO admits that the ADSL2+ service will reach only half of us, and even if you're lucky enough to be included in that half you'll get the full 24Mbps only if you live inside the exchange.
Meanwhile nobody has any plans yet to provide the "unserved" half of the population with real broadband. The threat to our international competitiveness is only now being realised, with increasing alarm, in government circles.
So who will be moving there?
Which BT Director has bought a house in Ebbsfleet then?
or should I get out more...
Look... what's the point?
We've got ISPs saying they can't handle all the BBC iPlayer videos and other multimedia downloads us customers try and do.
We've got telecomms companies wanting to charge us extra for downloading content they deem as problematic.
And finally we've even got ISPs "managing" certain types of network traffic.
BT are installing fibre for their Video on Demand service, I don't think the focus is internet traffic.
What is the point
with fast access when the UK ISP industry is based around restrictive caps due to poor infrastructure.
With a 100MBit you will eat through your 10GB (ish) monthly allowance in no time!
@David Neil
Its not the the trunk networks that are the issue; legislation or consolidation of the Local Access would help reduce risks and costs to the comms companies if any vendor could by access - much the same way as railway companies could gain access pre-grouping.
Always on catch up
100Mbit/s connections have been around for a while now in other countries. BT should have had this planned 5 years ago, and currently be investigating the generation beyond that.

In the two years since the Achievement Gap Act was signed into law in Massachusetts, the T3 Initiative has played a key role in the urgent movement to turn around low performing schools. In the first cohort of T3 partner schools in Boston we have see the following results:
- Attracted large numbers of excellent teachers to work in low-performing schools, challenging the notion that great teachers do not want to teach in struggling schools. Teach Plus has had 5 qualified applicants from around the nation for each of the 61 teacher leadership positions we have filled in Boston.
- Given a clear teacher leadership opportunity for highly skilled and experienced teachers. T3 teacher leaders have on average 9 years of experience.
- Identified teacher leaders for high need schools from inside and outside of the district. One third of T3 teacher leaders have come from outside the sponsoring district and two thirds from inside. Over 50% of the cohort fills high-need areas, with 30% experienced in working with English Language Learners and 22% experienced with working with Special Education students.
- In 2010-11, schools that used the T3 staffing model as part of their comprehensive turnaround strategy produced substantially greater student achievement growth[i] than other Massachusetts schools, including other turnaround schools in Boston, across most grades and subjects tested. Student achievement growth was concentrated in middle school and elementary school mathematics.
- Orchard Gardens was at the 96th percentile of all schools statewide in producing student growth in ELA and at the 98th percentile in mathematics in middle school grades. The median middle school student at Orchard Gardens demonstrated more growth in mathematics than 82% of other students statewide.
- Compared to similar students in other BPS turnaround schools, the average student in a T3 school gained:
- 1 percentile point more in elementary ELA,
- 10 percentile points more in elementary mathematics,
- 16 percentile points more in middle school ELA, and
- 29 percentile points more in middle school mathematics.
[i] All student achievement data comes from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Student growth information comes from the state's Student Growth Percentile data, which compares each student's performance to that of students who had similar scores in the previous year.

Last May, Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Jon Kaiman, then-Mineola Mayor Jack M. Martins and Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano met and reached an agreement to handle the flooding issues that have plagued eastern borderline Mineola and Carle Place residents for decades. Previously, the village was trying to get a deal in place with then-County Executive Tom Suozzi, but nothing ever developed.
Village officials confirmed to the Mineola American on Aug. 12 that the project is still very much alive and would be moving forward with construction work as soon as possible. North Hempstead and Mineola are currently hashing out an intermunicipal agreement to grant the town usage of village property so the Town can do the necessary work on North Hempstead's Carle Place flood project, according to village officials.
The Town of North Hempstead will use and maintain the property on the border of Mineola and Carle Place. Any work done in Carle Place is the Town's responsibility. Mineola would maintain the Bruce Terrace area.
New York State previously granted $2.4 million to the Town of North Hempstead for flood remediation to be shared by the three municipalities. However, the funds were pulled after a changing of the guard in the 7th Senate District.
Current State Senator Jack Martins had the grants recently restored. Furthermore, it has been required by New York that the monies be used only on this project in respect to the guidelines put forth by the state.
Each of the three municipalities received $800,000 for flood mitigation, which was reported in the July 27 issue of the Mineola American, rather than granting all the funds to one party. Any additional costs above the approved grants would not be funded by the state and the respective party would be responsible for those uncovered costs.
All three parties agreed in principle to fix the problem and will divide the costs equally. The next phase of the project, which has taken over four years to prepare and implement, is the construction assessment, which would be followed by actual construction.
Mineola agreed to reconfigure the south catch basin to handle more storm water flow. The county will build a bypass for water going south on Sheridan Boulevard toward the catch basin to reduce the amount of storm water that heads down to Bruce Terrace and the surrounding area. The water from the new bypass would flow into Mineola's catch basin.
The Town of North Hempstead, with the village's consent will build a catch basin on the north side of Westbury Avenue near Glen Cove Road. As to who will maintain it still remains uncertain. In turn, the Town of North Hempstead will clean out the catch basin located on the south side of Westbury Avenue to ease the flow of storm water when the bypass is complete.
When discussions began, it was required that Mineola get preliminary engineering studies done to assess the issue before presenting it to Nassau County and the Town of North Hempstead. The engineers had to study the natural flow of the water and implement a plan to fix the problem.
The solution is multijurisdictional. Nassau County storm water lines are used to funnel the water, but don't have the capacity to handle heavy, steady rain over long periods of time and feed into Mineola's catch basin.
The engineers retained on the project have concluded three factors that must happen. First, the piping on Sheridan Boulevard has to be changed. Second, the connection point with Nassau County drainage lines has to be fixed to handle larger water flow and third, the village's catch basin needs to be dug out to compensate for the extensive water flow in that area.
Since homes were built in the area of and on Bruce Terrace on the border of Mineola and Carle Place approximately 60 years ago, flooding has ensued during times of heavy rainfall. The area around Bruce Terrace is essentially, the funnel of all the rainfall because of the flow and gravity issue on the border of Mineola and Carle Place.
In terms of gravity, water in the area flows west to east, starting from Sheridan Boulevard and north to south from Jericho Turnpike. The houses in that area sit in the lowest part of the village of Mineola, which is where all the water flows. Roslyn Road is the dividing line in terms of the change in the water flow, once it crosses over it west to east.
Under the geographic area of Bruce Terrace, Dow Avenue, Jerome Avenue, Fairfield Avenue and the surrounding area, sit drainage lines. Those drainage lines collect that water and move it underground into the catch basins.
During times of heavy rainfall, the drainage lines don't transport the water fast enough, which causes the storm drains to fill up and pool in the Bruce Terrace area. Carle Place homes sit directly behind the east side of Bruce Terrace.

WASHINGTON -- A deal has been reached between six world powers and Iran that calls on Tehran to limit its nuclear activities in return for sanctions relief, the French and Iranian foreign ministers said early Sunday.
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said, "Yes, we have a deal," as he walked past reporters crowding the hotel lobby where marathon negotiations had taken place over the past five days.
Asked if there was a deal, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said "Yes" and gave a thumbs-up sign.
The goal had been to hammer out an agreement to freeze Iran's nuclear program for six months, while offering the Iranians limited relief from crippling economic sanctions. If the interim deal holds, the parties will negotiate final-stage agreements to ensure Iran does not build nuclear weapons.
The White House announced that President Barack Obama would make a statement on the agreement shortly.
The deal came after the personal intervention by Secretary of State John Kerry and other foreign ministers whose presence had raised hopes for a breakthrough.
Diplomats refused to spell out details of the talks, which dragged on past midnight. As the meetings continued into Sunday, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi described the talks as being in "their 11th hour," with most issues resolved but an agreement still elusive.
Consensus came after nearly a decade of inconclusive international efforts to halt Iran's expanding nuclear program. Iran insists its program is for peaceful purposes and not aimed at building nuclear weapons.
The agreement built on the momentum of the historic dialogue opened during September's annual U.N. gathering, which included a 15-minute phone conversation between Obama and Iran's new president, Hassan Rouhani, after three decades of U.S.-Iranian estrangement.
For the U.S. and its five partners, the chief concern is uranium enrichment, which can be used to power nuclear reactors as well as serve as the fissile core of warheads.
The six — the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany — were seeking to halt expansion of Iran's enrichment program, including an end to enriching to a level that can be turned into warhead material within weeks.
They were also looking to increase outside oversight of Tehran's nuclear activities and find a way to ease concerns about a reactor that will produce plutonium when finished. Like enriched uranium, plutonium can arm warheads.
In return, the six powers were offering gradual and limited sanctions relief over six months, depending on Iran's compliance. Core sanctions on oil exports and financial transactions — the most severe penalties — are to be kept in place until a final deal is achieved that permanently reduces proliferation dangers from Iran's nuclear activities.
President Barack Obama will make a statement Saturday night on the Iran nuclear agreement from the White House.
Obama will speak shortly after the U.S. and its negotiating partners reached an agreement with Iran. The deal was finalized during talks in Geneva that stretched well past midnight.
The interim deal is aimed at slowing progress on Iran's nuclear program while a broader agreement is negotiated.
As part of the interim agreement, the U.S. offered the Iranians limited relief from crippling economic sanctions.
The French foreign minister says Iran and six world powers have reached a first-stage agreement on curbing Iran's nuclear program in return for sanctions relief.
Laurent Fabius gave no details as he left a meeting of foreign ministers early Sunday in a fifth day of talks.
A formal announcement was expected soon.

Manchester man killed in Auburn snowmobile accident
Officials confirmed the victim was Keith Ryan Jr., 41.<br/<br/>
Auburn Fire Chief Bruce Phillips said emergency responders were on the scene within minutes after the accident and performed CPR on the man. He was taken by ambulance to Elliot Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, the chief said.
The boy was seriously injured and also taken to the Manchester hospital.
The man and the boy were both wearing helmets, but sustained serious injuries to other parts of their bodies, according to Fish and Game.
Fish and Game officials said the pair were riding together on a single snowmobile around 3:30 p.m. in Front Park. According to witnesses, the two hit a bump causing the machine to accelerate rapidly. Both were ejected from the machine and thrown onto rocks. The machine also continued into a rock, launching it about 72 feet through the air and into a small brook, authorities said.
The father and son were riding with another friend who was behind them on a separate snowmobile when the accident occurred. The friend called 911. Two nearby fishermen also witnessed the accident and ran over to help and stood by until rescuers arrived on scene.
Auburn police and fire departments, Derry Fire and Rescue, Manchester Water Works and NH Fish and Game Conservation Officers responded.
"This incident serves as a reminder for all riders to use due care and caution at all times when operating snowmobiles and" off highway recreational vehicles, said Conservation Officer Geoffrey Pushee.

Dozens in Bend celebrate World QiGong and Tai Chi Day
When the clock hit 10 a.m. Saturday in Bend, that's when many people around the world tried to become stress-free. And it was all part of the World QiGong and Tai Chi Day.
The day is meant to bring awareness to the martial art forms.
A group honored the day with classes held at Larkspur Park in Bend.
The art forms are meant to help harness good energy into the body of an individual and release the negative energy.
Tai Chi is a moving meditation, pushing energy around your body.
And you stand still doing QiGong.
"I think everyone should just read about QiGong and Tai Chi," said Karin Chen, co-owner of Oregon Tai Chi Wushu. "There's a reason why it's been around so long. It can benefit everyone."
Tai Chi is a 5,000-year-old tradition in China and has many health benefits, which include reduced anxiety and lower blood pressure.
And it's even been said that for those suffering from chronic fatigue, they experience more energy.

Salbutamol from an inhaler to prevent wheezing in babies and young children
This information is for parents of a baby or young child with wheezing. It tells you about regular use of salbutamol from an inhaler, a treatment used to prevent wheezing in babies and young children. It is based on the best and most up-to-date research.
Does it work?
We're not certain. There's no evidence from the research that breathing in
What is it?
Salbutamol inhalers are usually used to treat asthma symptoms when they happen. They're often called quick-relief inhalers. Researchers have also looked at whether using one of these inhalers regularly could prevent wheezing.
Salbutamol helps relax the muscles in the lungs so that the airways open up, making it easier for children to breathe. Your doctor may call this drug a bronchodilator, because it dilates (opens up) the bronchial tubes (airways).
Breathing in salbutamol is a good way to take the medicine, as the drug gets straight to the lungs, which is where it's needed. Brand names for salbutamol inhalers include
Young children are usually given this medicine through a spacer device attached to an inhaler or nebuliser. That's because it can be hard for them to use the same inhalers as older children. It can take quite a bit of coordination to press down on an inhaler and breathe in at the same time.
How can it help?
Studies so far show that breathing in salbutamol every day will not prevent your young child getting wheezy. [43] [44] When doctors prescribe these inhalers, they usually suggest children only use them when they need them.
How does it work?
Salbutamol inhalers work well to treat asthma symptoms when they happen. They help to open up the airways in your child's lungs. This makes breathing easier.
Doctors wanted to see whether using a salbutamol inhaler regularly could prevent asthma symptoms. But salbutamol inhalers don't seem to help when they're used in this way.
Can it be harmful?
The most common side effect of salbutamol in young children is a rise in how fast the heart beats. This is because the types of cells this drug affects are in the heart as well as in the lungs. But the studies didn't report any side effects.
Your child may also get shaking (tremors) and have low levels of potassium in the blood, which can be dangerous. (Your body needs potassium to balance the amount of water in your blood and body tissues, and to help your nerves and muscles work properly.) But the children in the studies we looked at did not get these effects.
How good is the research on salbutamol from an inhaler to prevent wheezing in babies and young children?
There is no good evidence that inhaling

The union representing 600 office workers at shipping lines and marine terminals in Southern California surprised employers, in a pleasant sort of way, by offering in mid-April to resume negotiations for a new contract. The Office Clerical Unit of International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 63 has been working without a contract since June 2010, and has had no direct talks with employers since December 2011, so any movement is welcome news.
OCU President John Fageaux will resume negotiations with attorney Stephen Berry, who represents employers, with added leverage. The OCU achieved a significant victory two weeks ago when the coast arbitrator who adjudicates West Coast waterfront disputes ruled that if the OCU erects picket lines at marine terminals, the dockworkers could legally honor the pickets. The OCU, which represents office workers who process shipping documents, can't shut down the ports by itself, but the larger dockworkers union can do so by refusing to handle cargo at the terminals.
The OCU is a little-known, some say maverick, affiliate of the ILWU centered in Southern California. Office workers earn nearly $100,000 a year, with outstanding benefits and allowances for time off. Given the economic recession that devastated the ports in 2008-09, employers suggest the OCU would be wise to protect the privileged status of its members by quickly settling a contract they say guarantees existing members a comfortable job until they retire.
Fageaux sees the employers' offer in a different light. He said the contract proposal would allow employers to use technology to outsource OCU jobs to out-of-state nonunion workers. Fageaux said the OCU made voluntary out-of-contract concessions to employers during the recession, and now the companies want to enshrine those concessions in the contract.
Berry, meanwhile, said the OCU wants to turn back the clock on technology, in effect erasing the productivity enhancements employers bought and paid for in previous contracts with generous benefits for OCU members.
Berry and Fageaux are anxious to resume negotiations. It's essential for the nation's largest port complex that negotiators produce a long-term agreement that guarantees stability in the OCU environment. The contentious negotiations that occur every three years damage the ports' reputation, as well as the positive image ILWU President Bob McEllrath has established for the larger union.
The ILWU under McEllrath has a reputation of being a tough but forward-looking union that understands the crucial role labor plays in keeping West Coast ports competitive. By sending the same message to cargo interests and ocean carriers, the OCU can ensure that the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach retain their dominant position among U.S. ports.

SAN FRANCISCO — CNN reported that the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected a former Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) officer's claim of immunity in the shooting death of Oscar Grant. The ruling allows Grant's father to sue over the killing.Johannes Mehserle was convicted of fatally shooting Grant in the back on New Year's Day in 2009 as he lay on a platform at the Fruitvale BART Station in Oakland. Mehserle's claim stated that "the facts overwhelmingly show that he was acting consistently within the legitimate law enforcement objective of arresting Grant." The court upheld a lower court ruling that found there was a "genuine issue" as to whether the former officer's actions were required for a legitimate law enforcement purpose.

DH is a great home chef, last night he played around with some venison a friend kindly provided. Ed's creation smelled so good it was difficult to wait for dinner as the warm scent of smoky cinnamon wafted throughout the house. We served this over broad egg noodles and had a salad of greens, Stilton and pears with roasted pecans and a nice Cabernet! Live a little, try it soon. We used a smoked ham shank but if you don't have one handy try adding some smoked sausage or Andouille slices. *Zaar would not acknowledge the shank in the recipe so I used Andouille sausage in the ingredients. This is even better the 2nd day!

Another one of my savoury "cake" recipes from France. This recipe is slightly more substantial than my Chic and Cheerful - Savoury French Olive, Cheese and Onion Cake, as this recipe contains ham with white wine and port! Serve this as alternative sandwich bread or as a light snack spread with cream cheese or butter. This cake recipe will also make fantastic little appetisers if the loaf is cut into small cubes and served with olives, cubes of cheese and savoury spreads. Please note that the texture of this savoury cake is NOT like a sweet dessert cake - it will be slightly holey with a robust and slightly chewy texture, almost like sourdough.

Man accused of abusing Haitian children back in court
Updated On: Feb 26 2013 11:37:34 AM EST
A man accused of abusing children at a group home in Haiti will be in court Tuesday.
Matthew Andrew Carter, from Brighton, Michigan, first took the stand on February 22nd. He will continue his testimony Tuesday in Miami federal court.
Carter has been in custody since he was arrested for abuse at Miami International Airport in 2011. He was in charge of a the Morning Star Center for poor children in Haiti from 1995 until 2011.
Two Haitian men testified that Carter forced them to perform sexual acts on him when they were children in the home. Carter's attorneys claimed that the children lived at the home with parental consent and were free to leave at any time.
The Haitian government shut down the center after Carter's arrest.

LIKE BRIDGES, WHEN DO LEVEES BECOME A SOCIAL POBLEM? Media Spotlight Levee Flaws in Isolation
I have spotted a few of these kind of stories in the news, focusing on a specific region or area and the problems with dikes or levees designed to prevent catatrosphic flooding. But when do the media and advocates re-define these isolated features into a larger national problem that requires national legislation and funding?
I am reminded a few years back of the media reports of bridges collapsing, killing motorists as they traveled across the spans. Eventually these isolated incidents were redefined as a critical national problem by advocates and the media, prompting state and national funding for massive bridge repair projects.
