On this day in 1997, the world lost a magnetic entertainer. Before the Farriss brother, the string of hits (Never Tear Us Apart, I Need You Tonight, Devil Inside) and long before life got complicated, Michael Hutchence, lead singer of iconic 80s Australian band, INXS, called Studio City home and found his voice while attending North Hollywood High School.
A portion of Michael's cremains are buried at Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills, across from the Warner Bros. Studio lot.

Remembering a Valley Icon...Michael Hutchence

8 Locations - 1 Glamorous Valley - 8 Totally Awesome Films! Movie Trivia From The (818)
As we all know, today's Valley Film Festival competitors are tomorrow's top Hollywood talent. In that spirit, here are a few not so well known facts about some top Hollywood films that were shot in (you guessed it), the 818.
1. 40 Year Old Virgin
The home of Andy Stitzer is located at 12012 Moorpark, just east of Laurel Canyon, in Studio City. (Andy no longer lives there, so please do not disturb the current occupants.)
2. Magnolia
Named for the iconic boulevard that now defines North Hollywood, William H Macy declares his love for Brad the Barman at The Foxfire Room in Valley Village.
3. Back to the Future
Did you know that in the battle of the bands scene was filmed in the Burbank Community Center? In this Universal Studios classic (the whole trilogy was shot in the Valley), when Marty introduces The Pinheads, Huey Lewis actually plays the second judge from the left, and is the one who eventually says, "You're just too darn loud."
4. American Beauty
The Canoga Park branch of Carl's Jr, 20105 Saticoy Street, at Winnetka Avenue, was transformed into 'Mr Smiley', where Lester Burnham (Kevin Spacey) gets a job serving up burgers – "I think you'll remember me this time!" Fun Fact: Kevin Spacey graduated from Chatsworth High School, just a few miles north of Canoga Park.
5. Superbad
Young genius? Depending on your opinion of the movie, but either way, Seth Rogen wrote the initial draft of the script when he was just 13, along with co-writer Evan Goldberg. Neither attend CSUN, in Northridge, where most of the film was shot.
6. Boogie Nights
The Valley itself is the star of the film. Shot from Encino to Reseda to Van Nuys, and all points in between, this film is Paul Thomas Anderson's homage to the porn industry. Yes, it's true, The Valley was the pioneering region for adult film production in the 1970s and grew to become home to a multi-billion dollar industry. According to the HBO series Pornucopia, at one time, nearly 90% of all legally distributed pornographic films made in the United States were filmed in or produced by studios based in the San Fernando Valley. You can find Vivid Entertainment, in the Cahuenga Pass, in Universal City.
7. The Karate Kid
Produced by Columbia Pictures and Jerry Weintraub, this film was shot almost entirely on location in the San Fernando Valley. The film is set in a time when Asian immigration was dramatically changing the neighborhoods of LA (the Asian-American population in the US grew 70 percent in the 1980's). By making the hero of the Mr. Miyagi, a World War II veteran of Japanese descent who'd fought for the United States in the most decorated unit in the Army, it suggests this influx could be a good thing for Los Angeles, that these newer Americans were every bit as patriotic as those who'd been here for generations.
8. It's a Wonderful Life
The town of Bedford Falls is actually Encino! When RKO sold their ranch in the 1950s, what was left of the Bailey's was subdivided into suburban homes. On the bright side, Balboa Park came out of the bulldozing. So, pack yourself a picnic and search for Zuzu's petals.

Schedule Announcement for the 14th Annual Valley Film Festival
North Hollywood, CA - The Valley Film Festival (VFF) announces another thought provoking and entertaining lineup of cinema so independent it has to be in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley, from December 10-14, at Laemmle's NoHo 7.
Providing quality independent domestic and international cinema, VFF also is the premiere showcase for Valley-based filmmakers. Altogether, the fourteenth annual Valley Film Festival provides audiences with the opportunity to discover 45 of today's most compelling films, such as FLYBOY, the newest short film produced by Academy Award Nominee Drew Bailey (MIRACLE FISH, 2009). The complete list of films with ticketing info is available at ValleyFilmFest.com.
The Opening Night program brings director John Putch back to VFF, with the only Los Angeles festival screening of ROUTE 30 THREE! This final chapter of the comedic trilogy set in rural South Central Pennsylvania features David Cowgill, Nathalie Boltt, and Dan Poole. Known for his work on "Cougar Town," "Scrubs" and "Ugly Betty," John Putch previously screened BACHELORMAN (2003), MOJAVE PHONE BOOTH (2006), ROUTE 30 (2008) and ROUTE 30, TOO (2012) at The Valley Film Festival.
VFF continues to program diverse films from around the country and the world. This year's features include films from Canada and Austria, and our shorts are in languages including Arabic, Catalan, Dutch, French, Portuguese, Spanish, and Tamil.
We also continue to proudly support local independent production, with over fifteen films made by Angelenos, Vals, and shot in or about the glamorous San Fernando Valley. Our Centerpiece Screening, YOU OR A LOVED ONE, is a dramedy directed by Matt Mercer that follows a reclusive illustrator as he navigates withdrawal effects from a pharmaceutical drug trial and is thrust back into daily life, and love, in Los Angeles.

Another local production is our Closing Night film, ODD BRODSKY, a quirky comedy about following your dreams, directed by Cindy Baer. It tells the story of Audrey Brodsky, who quits her office job of eleven years to pursue her dream of acting. There's just one problem: she's not very good at it. When Audrey meets an aspiring cameraman online, the adventure of her life finally begins. Cindy Baer previously screened MORBID CURIOSITY (2006), STALKED (2011), and SEYMOUR SALLY RUFUS (2012) at VFF.
Our documentary features this year include some more films made in or about Los Angeles: GONE SOUTH: HOW CANADA INVENTED HOLLYWOOD (LA premiere) and SING YOUR OWN SONG: AN OPERA LOVE STORY (NoHo premiere). THE GREEN GIRL, made by VFF alum George Pappy, is an in-depth look at Star Trek icon and prolific actress Susan Oliver.
Our feature films this year also include two West Coast premieres: the sci-fi musical comedy RIPPED and the drama LA VIE NOUS APPARTIENT (MAYBE TOMORROW).
About three dozen short films round out our 2014 program, including dramas, comedies, documentaries, animated works, and music videos. Two are world premieres: INSIDE THE WHALE and ANY OTHER FRIDAY, both playing on our dramatic shorts program. Our U.S. premieres are the thriller COLLECT and the dramas SOMETHING FOR NOTHING and UN CHIEN DE MA CHIENNE (PAYBACK IS A BITCH).

Founded in 2000, The Valley Film Festival, a project of Community Partners®, is the first and longest continually running film festival in the San Fernando Valley. With a mission to join established and emerging talent with adventurous audiences in Los Angeles, the VFF has screened over 500 shorts, features, documentaries, animated films, experimental works, and music videos from around the world.

In addition to screenings, the festival provides educational panels, social mixers, opportunities for young filmmakers, audience awards, and the juried "Ten Degrees Hotter" award for one feature and one short chosen from the competitive section.

The Valley Film Festival Announces 2014 Shortlist
We want to thank all the filmmakers who submitted their work to VFF14. Over the last several months, our screeners - located all over the world (er, maybe just all over the US and UK) - watched films from all over the world. There was not a bad film in the entire bunch! We're especially excited to release our shortlist, something we've never done, because the following group of films made the screening groups react. We laughed, we cried, we cheered on, and more.
While we further narrow the films down to the final selections (approx 10 features & 50 shorts) we encourage everyone to explore the titles below. (We'll continue to update film links as they come in, so check back.)

I've always wondered what other people thought on this subject, so here goes:
Which--in your own opinion--video game has the best music/soundtrack? Why do you think so?
Well, for me there's a few. Metal Gear Solid (any one of them) has such good music and not only does it make you feel like you're a part of the game, it adds to the adrenaline rush when fighting soldiers and bosses. Even sneaking around is exciting through the aid of MGS's musical score.
Hmm... What else? Street Fighter III: Third Strike has some of the dopest beats you'll ever hear on a 2D fighter! I love it! It's like there's a tiny DJ in my Dreamcast spinnin' the greates drum 'n bass/techno ever! ^_^
Jet Set Radio Future has a very unique soundtrack as well. There are artists such as Scapegoat Wax and Cibo Matto in the front lines, then The Latch Brothers are good for some tight instrumentals (they make up for most of the music).
And then last, but definitely not least is... Silent Hill 4: The Room! Oh, man! It's soothing, yet eerie at the same time! I'd have to say that "Your Rain" is like the best song ever! They even did a remix of that song for DDR Supernova (and believe it or not, it's one of the best DDR songs to date). I don't know whether to fall asleep to such beautiful music or hide in the closet from the creepy tunes that eminate from my X-Box. :laugh: LOL.
What about you guys? What video game rocks your socks off?

The Men of 'Entourage' Talk Final Season, Say Movie Will Happen (VIDEO)
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
The days of Entourage on the small screen may be coming to an end, but it looks like this won't be the final goodbye! The cast of Entourage sat down with Matt Lauer on the TODAY show this morning and revealed that plans for a movie are in the works. With seven seasons of the beloved HBO series behind them, Hollywood superstar Vincent Chase and his inner circle have an exciting eighth and final season for their fans.
Adrian Grenier, who plays Vincent, was joined by Jeremy Piven (Ari), Kevin Connolly (Eric), Kevin Dillon (Drama) and a very slim Jerry Ferrara (Turtle). Looking handsome as ever, it seems the gang hasn't lost any of their magic and will have plenty of Hollywood hijinks in store in the weeks to come.
Lauer commented on the more serious tone of the last season, noting that many fans felt that the heavier mood weighed down the show. Grenier was quick to emphasize that this season would be the lighter, more triumphant Entourage that fans had come to know and love:
"Vince is back, he has got to prove to everyone that he is not actually the drug addict that everyone thinks he is."
The cast, known for their close camaraderie, was nostalgic about the past seven years together. Connolly summed up the feelings of his castmates, saying:
"I think it would be impossible to duplicate this experience, it's just been so unique. You could go on and do ten shows, however many and win Academy Awards, but it will never be as special and unique as this –lightening in the bottle."Luckily for fans around the world, this won't be the last we see of Vince and the boys. The cast are all on board for an Entourage movie, Connelly enthusiastically affirmed:
"We are going to try really hard to make that happen."
On this chapter of their lives finally closing, Lauer read a tweet that Piven had posted a which read "Don't be sad because it's over, smile because it happened", a message that the star said David Nutter, the series' director, told the cast when the 8th season wrapped. We couldn't agree with him more!
Catch the premiere of the final season of Entourage this Sunday at 10:30 pm eastern on HBO! Need a refresher course? Watch the Season 8 trailer and have Celebuzz catch you up to speed here.

Barack Obama Cheating Scandal Alleged; Vera Baker Denies Affair with Presidentby Free Britney at . Comments
Has President Barack Obama been having an affair with Vera Baker? That's the shocking allegation made by the National Enquirer in this week's edition.
The publication claims Obama and Baker, a former campaign aide, holed up at Washington, D.C. hotel, and a "security video" could expose everything!
Baker, now 35, worked tirelessly to get Obama elected to the U.S. Senate, raising millions in campaign contributions, in 2004. They grew close since.
While Vera Baker insists that "nothing happened" between them, the Enquirer says anti-Obama "operatives" are digging hard into the alleged affair.
Some are reportedly offering $1 million for information confirming it.
Did Barack Obama and Vera Baker have an affair? That's the allegation of sources who claim the former aide is now his mistress - and claim there's evidence out there.
According to the celebrity gossip tabloid, a limo driver (anonymous of course) claims he drove Vera to a secret hotel rendezvous with the President.
He says he drove Baker "from a friend's home in the D.C. area to the Hotel George where I learned later that Obama would be spending the night."
The driver recalled that he "waited in the lobby while she went to change her outfit. But to the best of my knowledge she did not have a room at the hotel and she was not staying there so I thought that it was a bit odd."
He says he picked up Barack Obama at the airport and drove both he and Vera Baker to various locations while he was raising money."About 10:30 p.m., I drove them to the hotel and they went in together! My services for the evening were done," he notes, adding that "there was absolutely no indication she was going to leave the hotel that night."
The Enquirer says the driver's account had been independently corroborated by investigators who believe the couple spent the night together there.
It also claims "on-site hotel surveillance video camera footage could provide indisputable evidence ... investigators are working to obtain the tape."
"If the tape surfaces, it will explode the scandal."
Okay, look. We don't believe this for a second. There are so many holes, we don't even know where to begin. When did the alleged cheating on Michelle Obama take place? Is there anything beyond them staying in the same building?
That said, we have to admit, we thought the same of reports that John Edwards cheated on his wife with, knocked up and tried to pay off Rielle Hunter. Look how that turned out. Granted, the Enquirer had 10 times more details there.
There's a big difference between a second tier candidate for President nailing some weird videographer and actually being President and having an affair ... then again, Americans would've given Bill Clinton the benefit of the doubt too.
Basically, don't believe the Obama tale without a ton more evidence ... but don't assume something like this can't happen just because it's the Prez.
this is for mookie BLACK has not a dman thing to do with it get off of it please BLACK WHITE SPANISH it doesnt matter the only one that race matters to is the ones who are always trying to sponge off America get over it already!!!!!!!
Oh how I wish this was true and could be proven beyond a doubt.There is about as much a chance of that as proving he is a citizen of Kenya. AS for Fox News,,,it's the only one we watch. Liberal ,garbage on all of the other channels.
You people seriously need to study grammar.
No he didn't cheat people just out to mess with him cause he black leave him alone let him do his job and if he did cheat michelle will did with it she don't need any help
i think the story is not truth
Lol I am a hispanik not black back the fuck off fuckers that like to hate lol don't hat cuz he has a butifill fam un like sum others lol jajajajaja. People get lives
vadime selam efendim...çocuklar dahil...uzmanınız...
yalan olmalı ayıp denilen birşeqy var...
to gloriaG you cant chose to be black he was born black and hawaiian. But to all those who think hes cheating on his wife why does it take them how many years since 2004 its 2010 lets see 6 years if no one said anything in the last 6 years i dont think they would now. plus i dont think wants to lose such a beautiful wife and 2 lovely kids and a cute dog for her. vera baker is UUUUGLY. man if he had sex with that hes a damb fool and deserves it if his wife leaves him which i know she wont because they are still madly in love with each other i wouldnt be suprised if she finally gave obama a son. so to all yous who think he cheated get a life and stay out of his even if its in the media.which sounds stupid

There's good news for Homestead's Caleb Swanigan and possibly more good news.
The senior boys basketball standout made the USA Basketball U17 team, it was announced Tuesday. Swanigan, who holds several big-time Division I scholarship offers, will be part of the 12-player team that will travel to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, for the 2014 FIBA U17 World Championship on Aug. 8-16.
The two-time defending U17 champion United States begins preliminary play against Greece on Aug. 8.
That's a phenomenal accomplishment, Homestead coach Chris Johnson said Tuesday. He's a great kid and has worked extremely hard to put himself in that position.
He has been blessed with his size and his footwork and hands. He has been given a gift and has taken advantage of it. He has worked hard to put himself in a position to have a phenomenal senior year of high school and from there, the sky's the limit.
The 6-foot-8 center, who recently reclassified to the graduating class of 2015, is participating in the 2014 U17 World Championship Team training camp in Colorado Springs, Colorado, at the U.S. Olympic Training Center.
It's a good opportunity for me to just see how I have been doing during the spring and the summer, Swanigan said last week. I didn't get invited to the U18, so it was a relief to get invited to the next one. You definitely want to be invited. It means a lot just because that's the best of the best there. Just being given the opportunity to make the team is going to be a great experience.
After averaging 20 points and 12 rebounds a game as a sophomore, the 6-foot-8, 265-pound Swanigan decided to finish high school in three years instead of the usual four and pick up the extra academic work during the summer and fall, in addition to playing AAU basketball during the spring and summer. He led the Spartans to the Class 4A semistate and was named to the IBCA Underclassmen All-State first team and The Associated Press All-State third team.
Swanigan might also be getting a new point guard in Junior All-Star Jordan Geist. According to a Twitter post from Homestead senior center/forward Dana Batt and media reports, Geist will transfer from Penn to Homestead.
Johnson said he has seen the same reports about Geist.
He's a heck of a player, but he goes to Penn, Johnson said. If he enrolls (at Homestead), we will be getting a good point guard.

Turner Valley Economic Development Plan
- New Directions -
The Town of Turner Valley has completed the final draft of its economic development plan, focusing on creating a vision for Turner Valley to follow as it strives to improve investment and community development options. The plan will help guide the community in its future planning.
We are very fortunate that the Province of Alberta has allowed us to pursue the exciting opportunity of developing this Town of Turner Valley Economic Development Plan – New Directions by providing funding through the Rural Community Adaptation Program.
In addition to establishing a new pathway for the Town of Turner Valley, the plan also addresses two major areas of interest in detail; the need to optimize use of municipal downtown land to offer expansion areas for commercial growth opportunities and the need to develop sustainable outdoor recreation opportunities.
To accommodate this, consideration was given to the redevelopment of the east side of Main Street which is the current location of one ball diamond and a campground with unserviced lots. This coincided with strong community desire to relocate both the campground and the ball diamond. Relocation plans allow for the creation of a recreation node combining both campground and ball diamond activities adjacent to an area zoned to provide service support to recreation vehicles.
Turner Valley Council invites comments about the plan from the public, municipal neighbours and project stakeholders. Comments can be forwarded to email@example.com

Trammell Attorney-John J. Byrne ABSTRACT: A differential protective device for providing short circuit protection for electrical networks such as air borne power supply systems includes a series ofcurrent transformers for monitoring the input and output leads of a network and a summing circuit for summing the output signals from the current transformers. Where a fault exists in the network a nonzero current summation will result and a corresponding output voltage produced by the summing circuit. The output voltage is applied to a comparator circuit which is connected to a control unit for controlling a programmed switching operation within the network to locate the fault.
scnmrr TRIGGER CONTROL UNIT PATENTEUNUV 2 1971 CONTROL UNIT NETWORK PROTECTIVE DEVICE FOR POWER SUPPLY SYSTEMS FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to protective devices and, more particularly, to differential protective devices for providing fault protection for electrical networks such as airborne power supply systems.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION A number of different approaches have been taken in providing fault or short-circuit protection for electrical systems. For example, in one prior art arrangement the currents flowing into and out of a network are compared and the highest current value determined and used as a trigger. Current summing is not utilized in this approach. In another approach, a differential-type arrangement is provided which includes a relay sensitive to current direction and impedance and to which vectorial combinations of several inputs are applied. However, the input to the relay does not include all of the currents flowing into and out of the test network. In yet a further approach, a leakage protection device is provided which monitors the flow of equalizing currents rather than comparing voltages. Vectorial summation of auxiliary currents is obtained by measuring a third current formed in a common line by the auxiliary currents.
These approaches suffer a number of disadvantages, among which is the requirement of separate current transformer pairs for each line of a network to be monitored. The resultant number of transformer and auxiliary equipment required is prohibitive particularly for aircraft and space vehicle use.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the present invention a protective system is provided which is particularly adapted for airborne use in that the weight of the necessary equipment as well as the complexity of the associated wiring is substantially reduced as compared with known systems. One important feature of the system of the invention is that the number of current transformers necessary is reduced. A further important feature is that the electrical components of the system of the invention readily lend themselves to incorporation in integrated circuits.
In accordance with a presently preferred embodiment of the invention a differential protective system is provided wherein a summing circuit adds up all of the currents flowing into and out of a test network and provides an output voltage corresponding to this sum. When a fault exists in the network, the currents do not sum to zero, and the resultant signal is used to control the network in accordance with a particular preselected program. The output of the summing circuit is preferably connected to a comparator circuit in the form of a Schmitt trigger, the output of which is connected to the input of a control unit. The control unit may, for example, control opening of a series of switches in the test network in a particular sequence to provide an indication of the location of the fault within the network.
Other features and advantages of the invention will be set forth in or are apparent from the detailed description of a preferred embodiment thereof found hereinbelow.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING The single FIGURE in the drawing is a schematic block diagram of a presently preferred embodiment of the invention.
DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring to the drawing, an electrical network, which may, for example. be an airborne power supply system, is generally denoted 14. First and second generators l2 and 13 are connected in the input circuit of network 14 through conductors CI and C2. The currents, denoted J, and 1,, respectively, flowing in input conductors Cl and C2 are monitored by current transformers l and 11. Network 14 is connected through output conductors C3, C4 and C to bus bars 5,, S and S respectively, and the currents in these conductors, denoted J J and J respectively, are monitored by current transformers 15, 16 and 17, respectively. It will of course be appreciated that the embodiment shown is merely exemplary and that the number of input and output conductors and the arrangement of these conductors is a matter of design.
In accordance with the present invention the input transformer currents i and i and the output transformer currents i i, and i are summed in a summing circuit 20 to provide a control output.
In accordance with Kirchoff's Law and thus the equation for the currents flowing in current transformers 12 to 17 under normal conditions is Thus, under conditions where and thus a resultant current will be produced. Summing device provides an output voltage corresponding to the algebraic sum of the input currents thereto and thus produces no output where this sum is equal to zero, that is, where 93 i=0. However, where 21 5 0 an output signal will be provided at the output of summing circuit 20 which is a function of the differential current i where iu=i +i2"'(i3+i +i5).
The output of summing circuit 20 is connected to the input of comparator circuit 30 preferably in the form of a conventional Schmitt trigger. Schmitt trigger 30, in turn, controls activation of a control unit 40. When the output voltage produced by summing circuit 20 exceeds a predetermined value the Schmitt trigger 30 will apply a control signal to the input control unit 40. In general control unit 40 is utilized in splitting" network 14 so that subsections thereof each are provided with separate differential protection. Control unit 40, which may take a number of forms, preferably controls the operation of a series of switches (not shown) within network 14 in a programmed manner. For example, unit 40 may control the sequential opening of a series of switches in network 14 so that when a switch is opened which disconnects a portion of the circuit wherein a trouble spot such as a short circuit exist such that the sum of the input currents to summing circuit 20 is again zero, an indication is provided as to which portion of network 14 is involved. Such an indication can, for example be provided by arranging for series of lights to be actuated responsive to the opening of the switches in network 14 so that the last light which is lit during the sequential operation of the switches provides an indication as to which section of network 14 is faulty. It will be appreciated that other switching sequences can be utilized and that various combinations of switches can be automatically opened and closed in accordance with a particular program in attempting to pinpoint the fault. The complexity of the switching program is, of course, a matter of design choice and will be a function of the complexity of network 14 among other factors.
Although the invention has been described relative to a preferred illustrative embodiment thereof, it will be understood that variations and modifications may be effected in this embodiment without departing from the scope' and spirit of the invention.
1. A differential protective system for an electrical network comprising a first plurality of current transformers, for monitoring the current flowing in each of the input conductors of the network, each current transformer of said first plurality of current transformers individually monitoring an input conductor to the network and producing an output current in accordance with the current flowing in that input conductor, and further plurality of current transformers for monitoring the current flowing in each of the output conductors of the network, each current transformer of said second plurality of current transformer individually monitoring an output conductor from the network and producing an output current in accordance with the current flowing in that output conductor, summing means for algebraically summing the output currents from said current transformers and for producing an output signal in accordance with that resultant algebraic sum, and control means responsive to said output signal for controlling said network in accordance with a predetermined program.
2. A system as claimed in claim 1 wherein said summing means comprises summing circuit for producing a voltage signal in accordance with the sum of the output currents of said current transformers.
3. A system as claimed in claim 2 further comprising a comparator circuit connected to the output of said summing circuit and to the input of said control means.
4. A system as claimed in claim 3 wherein said comparator circuit comprises a Schmitt trigger.
5. A system as claimed in claim 4 where said control means comprises means for providing selective switching within the network in accordance with a predetermined program.
6. A system as claimed in clam 1 wherein said network includes at least one active element.
7. A system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the number of input conductors is different from the number of output conductors.

Germany's Norddeutsche Erdgasleitung (NEL), a link to the newly built Nord Stream pipeline between Germany and Russia, might be delayed by up to a year to the end of 2013, the main shareholder E.ON Ruhrgas told ICIS Heren on Friday.
Last month, Germany's higher administrative court in Lüneburg in Lower Saxony has ordered a temporary halt to the construction of the pipeline because of security concerns, saying the pipeline was being laid too close to a residential area (see ESGM 1 July 2011).
The court called on the project partners and the regional authority to work out new construction plans.
E.ON Ruhrgas, which holds a 70% share in NEL, said that it was still evaluating the situation, but added that the whole project could possibly be significantly delayed.
If the entire permission and construction process needs to be repeated, it will take at least an additional nine months, delaying the project by up to a year, according to the company.
NEL has a capacity of 20 billion cubic metres (20Gm³)/year and was originally scheduled to be commissioned in October 2012, at the same time when the first 27.5Gm³/year Nord Stream pipeline is expected to start flowing gas from Russia to Germany (see ESGM 21 April 2011). The two-line Nord Stream pipeline is designed to transport 55Gm³ of Russian gas each year to Europe via the Baltic Sea.
The NEL link will run from the point where Nord Stream beaches at Lubmin, near Greifswald, to Rehden in Lower Saxony, stretching more than 440km past Schwerin and Hamburg. E.ON's project partners are Dutch transmission system operator Gasunie, which owns a 20% share in the joint venture, and the German-based Wintershall-Gazprom subsidiary WINGAS, with 10%. JR

NATO: 2 Afghan civilians killed in violence
A pair of insurgent attacks on Thursday killed two Afghan civilians, including a child, in part of the persistent violence across the country despite crackdowns on insurgent leaders, officials said.
The Associated Press
A pair of insurgent attacks on Thursday killed two Afghan civilians, including a child, in part of the persistent violence across the country despite crackdowns on insurgent leaders, officials said.
The child was killed by a bomb outside a music cassette shop in a marketplace in Jalalabad, some 80 miles (125 kilometers) east of Kabul, said Ahmad Zia Abdulzai, a spokesman for Nangarhar province. NATO said three other civilians were wounded in the blast.
In the south, NATO said insurgents opened fire on civilians in the Washer district of Helmand province, killing one and wounding three more. The wounded were evacuated to a coalition medical facility.
Separately, NATO reported that Afghan and coalition forces on Wednesday detained a Taliban operator in Behsud district of the same province, one of scores of insurgents who have been captured or killed in recent months in southern and eastern Afghanistan, especially along the Pakistan border.
The coalition said the Taliban operator coordinated the movement of foreign fighters into eastern Kunar province from neighboring Pakistan and was responsible for conducting attacks against government and coalition forces.
In the Afghan capital, a few hundred protesters marched to the Iranian Embassy to demonstrate against the hanging of Afghans in Iran.
Afghan lawmakers have claimed that as many as 45 Afghans had been executed in Iran, but the Afghan Ministry of Foreign Affairs has said that number is exaggerated. The ministry, which has raised the issue with Iranian officials in Tehran, has confirmed the execution of six Afghans in Iran but has not provided details about why they were killed.
The protesters carried large photographs of Iranian officials, their faces crossed out with red Xs.
"The Iranian regime has been doing very brutal acts against Afghan people," said Razia, a female protester who uses only one name. "These were all people who were not criminals or traitors. They went to Iran to find work, but they have been killed in a very brutal way."
Last week, a couple hundred Afghans also demonstrated outside the Iranian Embassy to protest Iran's blocking of fuel trucks at the border, which caused domestic fuel prices to rise as much as 70 percent. Afghanistan has no refineries of its own and relies entirely on imported fuel. Iran supplies about 30 percent of the country's refined fuel with the remainder coming from Iraq and Turkmenistan.
Farid Shirzai, head of the Afghan Commerce Ministry's fuel department, said Thursday that Iran currently was allowing 1,000 tons of fuel to enter Afghanistan at three border crossings each day, compared with 3,000 to 4,000 tons daily before the trucks were blocked.

I have two of these I bought 2 years ago and 3 I bought last year to hopefully assist pollination. The first two flowered last spring but didn't set fruit so I have fingers crossed for this year - I'm also going to hand-pollinate as this is recommended by the RHS. They are fairly slow growing and apparently take about 3 years to get fully established. Good job I'm patient!
Agree with Verdun. If you don't have south-facing side of the garden, go for a west-facing one if you can.
If you grew only short red ones, you would more than likely get short red ones from seed collected from them, but there's always a chance of getting something taller or a different colour. However, if you grew more than one type, the chances are they will have cross-pollinated and all bets are off, with the seeds likely to produce a range of heights and colours.
Not me - they're a bit too fussy for my liking. I think bigolob has a large collection.
Hi Pipstrelle, chitting is not compulsory by any means, but as you already have them, then doing so under the conditions mentioned above will only help. What you don't want to do is leave them in the bag anywhere warm as they will produce long white shoots and may even rot, so chitting is also a good way of keeping them healthy until planting time.
Yep, perfectly normal as Dove says. The white stuff is fungal mycelium which is helping to break it down. Try and keep it slightly moist - add a bit of water if it gets too dry.
Same here obelixx - I have taken 32 cuttings from the prunes-off material and bunged them in my heated propagator, just because it's there. Hopefully bottom-heat will help but I'm not expecting any results - nothing to lose though, as you say.
Heheh - just a tad before my time, Alan. It was Geoff Hamilton (God rest his soul) who inspired me most in garden DIY type stuff. I have a 4mx2m polytunnel coming later this week (if it turns up this time!) so will probably bung up a few photos of that while I'm erecting it. No doubt I'll be making some modifications..
Let's hope so - hardly any last year but suspect Mother nature has it covered!
I've started on mine now too, DD & FG, both group 2 and 3. Much earlier than I normally do but some are putting on serious growth and many of the 2s are already too leggy. If those I have cut back hard start to shoot from below ground and there are frosts forecast, I'll give them a good mulch which all clematis appreciate anyway. There seem to be a few casualties in particularly wet areas which are showing no signs of life and have dead stems so those have been cut back to below ground level. Looks like some clematis shopping may be on the cards.
