Same reason they replaced Tommen for this season - needed to give it to an actor who fit the needs of the story at that time.

Businesses Benefit from Eco-design
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Over 35 delegates from across the North West and the East Central Region of Sweden have benefited from expert advice from Lancaster University on how to make environmentally friendly products.
The Eco-Design Workshop was held at the Solaris Centre in Blackpool, which is itself a leading example of eco-friendly building design. The two-day event, funded by the EU Interreg IIIC Programme, aimed to share best practice between companies in both Sweden and the UK on how to promote sustainability.
It was organised by the University's Product Development Unit and included visits to a recycling plant in Preston and tours of InfoLab21 and the Engineering Department, where the Unit is based.
The companies attending included furniture companies Lamoury Design from Garstang, Raw Studio Ltd from Skelmersdale and Green Seats from Cumbria as well as mhf:creative Ltd from Blackpool and Wesmar Bio-Energy Ltd from Bilsborrow near Preston.
Dr Allan Rennie, Manager of the Lancaster Product Development Unit, said: "Green Seats use recycleable material in the manufacture of their furniture, mainly seats from hemp or cardboard. It's all about using design to reduce the amount of natural resources we use and optimising material usage. This is becoming ever more important with government and EU legislation to try to make companies reduce the amount of materials they use in a product.
"The opportunity to bring such a diverse range of delegates together for this event has not only highlighted the issues regarding sustainable design in the North West, but allowed for dissemination far and wide through networks both here and in Sweden."
The event included presentations by companies from Sweden who shared their best practice on environmental sustainability. There will be a return visit to Sweden next year by delegates from North West companies.
Dr Rennie said: "This will allow them to see first hand how their counterparts in Sweden are incorporating eco- and sustainable design into their working practices."
The SIMPLE Project (Successful Implementation of Eco-Design in SMEs) forms part of a larger EU programme called 'TOWER' (Towards Sustainable Excellence by Innovating Regions). Various organisations in Sweden are also participating in the project including Linkopings University, the Östergötland County Administrative Board, Uppsala County Administrative Board and ALMI Företagspartner Uppsala AB.

MonoGame's Cross-Platform Content Pipeline
In my last post, I discussed how to use the XNA GS 4.0 Content Pipeline project along side the MonoGame Game projects. Since the release of MonoGame 3.0, the MonoGame team has been hard at work in implementing their own Content Pipeline to build xnb files. My only criticism at this point is that it currently does not maintain compatibility with existing XNA GS 4.0 Projects. I don't think this will be a showstopper for many peple, but it would be nice not to have to slice up existing projects to make ......

Teen dies sledding on closed ski slope
PINKHAM NOTCH - An 18-year-old Massachusetts man died while sledding on Wildcat Mountain while the ski slopes were closed, according to a New Hampshire Fish and Game Department release.
Joseph Murad, 18, of Hanson, Mass., was found dead by a search party after disappearing during a midnight sledding excursion on the slopes of Wildcat Mountain in Pinkham Notch, the release said.
"The ski slopes of Wildcat Mountain were closed during the time that Mr. Murad's party was on the mountain," the release said. "In addition, these trails are not open to sledding."
The release said Murad and two friends hiked to the mountain's summit Thursday night intending to ride sleds to the bottom. Authorities were called about 3:30 a.m. Friday when his friends were not able to find him, the release said.
Murad's body was found about 8 a.m. and it appears as though injuries he suffered during a crash "were major contributing factors in (Murad's) death," the release said.
City suspends rule on odd/even parking
MANCHESTER - The city's odd/even winter parking regulations are being waived from 1 a.m. Sunday through 6 a.m. Wednesday, according to Deputy Public Works Director Tim Clougherty.
That means drivers don't have to worry about the correlation between the day and the address number - odd-numbered side on odd days and even-numbered on even days - until Wednesday morning. After 6 a.m. Wednesday, vehicles must be parked on the odd-numbered side of the street.

Ukraine: Rebels fire on border guard vessel along seacoastBy JIM HEINTZ
The Associated Press | September 01,2014AP PHOTO
Russian President Vladimir Putin meets with participants in the youth educational forum at the Seliger youth camp near Lake Seliger, some 281 miles northwest of Moscow, in Tver region, Russia, Friday.KIEV, Ukraine Russian President Vladimir Putin on Sunday called on Ukraine to immediately start talks on a political solution to the crisis in eastern Ukraine.
Hours later, Ukraine said a border guard vessel operating in the Azov Sea was attacked by land-based forces. Pro-Russian rebels have recently opened a new offensive along the seacoast.
Putins comment, made to national TV network Channel 1, said Ukraine should hold substantive, meaningful talks, not about technical issues but about the question of the political organization of society and statehood in southeast Ukraine, with the goal of safeguarding the legitimate interests of those people who live there.
Despite the use of the word statehood, Putin did not envision sovereignty for the two separatist eastern regions that style themselves as Novorossiya (New Russia), his spokesman Dmitry Peskov said later, according to a Russian news report.
Putins comments came a day after leaders of the European Union decided to put off any new sanctions against Russia for at least a week.
On Sunday, a spokesman for Ukraines offensive against Russia-backed rebels said a border guard vessel has been fired on with artillery apparently the first incident at sea in the fighting.
The spokesman, Oleksiy Dmitrashkovsky, said the attack occurred Sunday afternoon but he had no further information, including how many people were aboard the boat.
The attack took place amid heightened concern that the rebels are trying to seize a land bridge between Russia and the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia annexed in March.
Until this week, the area along the Azov Sea had escaped the fighting that has gripped areas farther north since April.
Russia previously has called for talks between the central government and the separatist rebels in the east, which Ukrainian forces have been fighting since April and Russia has pushed for federalization that would devolve more powers to the regions.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko released a peace plan in June that proposed an unspecified level of decentralization of executive powers and budgetary matters. But rebels so have rejected any talks unless Ukrainian forces halt their offensive.
Putin said Ukraine should stop the offensive.
If anybody believes that in a situation where the cities and villages of east Ukraine come under direct fire that the militiamen will have no reaction to that, but will simply wait for the promised talks, then these people are prisoner to some illusions, he said.
His statement comes as Ukrainian forces battle against newly strengthened resistance from the rebels. After making gains in recent weeks, Ukraine has been forced to pull out of several towns over the past week.
Residents began returning to their homes Sunday in areas vacated by retreating Ukrainian forces.
In the village of Hrabske, Alexander Bezpalko and his son worked to salvage parts from a burned-out Ukrainian tank.
My home was leveled and I need to rebuild it somehow, Bezpalko said. This heap of junk is scrap that I can make some money from. Everything is destroyed and there is no work.
There is barely a street in Hrabske and the nearby town of Ilovaysk left unscarred by artillery strikes. The bitter fight for Ilovaysk and surrounding areas lasted the best part of a month. On Saturday, the government conceded its inevitable defeat as its armed forces were surrounded and under relentless attack.
This week, Ukraine seized 10 Russian soldiers well inside the country. On Sunday, Col. Andriy Lysenko, a spokesman for the national security council, said nine of them had been given back to Russia in exchange for 63 Ukrainian servicemen.
Ukraine has made a step forward, Lysenko said of the release. This is one of the major steps towards the Russian Federation they were not taken to court, they were transferred.MORE IN Wire NewsMcALESTER, Okla. Full StoryCHARLESTON, S.C. James B. Full StoryPANAMA CITY, Fla. Full Story

Please give me a solution… My customer is getting mad…
Best Regards
please use our quick start package. do not need to use development mode. if you need to edit css, then edit css from css folder of this theme.
I used the quick start package and it looks like this: 1. When I am installing it locally on my mac, using MAMP, the installation jumps back to the step with "connect to the database" if I activate "install sample data ". So it doesnt install the sample data… 2. When I am installing it on the Webserver, the installation freezes if I activate "install sample data ".
Can you help?
it happens due to local server problem. Please try on online and make sure our quickstart is ok or not. you can increase max execution time and max upload file size from php.ini file.

Hi, I've got a problem with the installation of your theme on my site. When I create new links (to com_content articles) in a menu, they do not work and they return 404 "Article not Found" on the frontend. I've seen in your comments page that months ago user "thdsgn" had a similar problem and it was resolved. Can you please help me ?
I'm using "Alcatron – Multipurpose Joomla Template" for Joomla 3.1.x, I've installed the quickstart and upgraded the joomla installation to the latest version (Joomla 3.3).
we have send you a mail. Please communicate us by mail.
i want to make the website non-responsive how can i do that ? please i need help
we have send you a mail.
I installed the template file from directory /templates, I installed the T3 plugin, set the template to Default. Frontend: Layout [default] or [Default] not found! Joomla version: 3.3.6 Any suggestions?
hello, we didn't use 3.3.6 we used 3.1.6 we provided t3 plugin . this layout problem some mismatch anything. Can you please use our quick start package? please send us mail using our TF profile.
I reinstalled the joomla software from your quickstart zip. It seems to be simply a standard (outdated) version of Joomla. Your documentation does not match with the downloaded template. What about T3. Is it included or not? Do I have to install all extentions manually. What about Joomla updates / patches? Honestly: I am not happy with the buy and would prefer to get my money back. There are better documentated templates available.
this is really bad news for us. Actually if you use our quick start package you will get demo look site and understand everything. if you would want, we could give install in your server. you have total right. total money transaction system controlled by themeforest authority. you can ask them about money back. they can help you .

The health-insurance lobby just "launched a surgical strike" against the Democrats' "best hope for health reform," said NBC Washington. A new report from America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) shows how Sen. Max Baucus' health bill, up for vote in the Finance Committee on Tuesday, would drive up the cost of care for families and businesses. And so ends AHIP's public support for and "behind-the-scenes lobbying campaign" against health-care reform.
"Let me get this right," said Josh Marshall in Talking Points Memo. The insurance lobby hires an accounting firm that says insurance reform will drive up costs, and "this is news?" Why does the news media fall for this "rent-a-research"?
Well, the AHIP report is right about at least one big thing, said The Washington Times in an editorial. The Baucus bill has a weak individual mandate—the meager $750 fine per adult for not carrying insurance gives the young and healthy a strong incentive to "game the system," buying insurance only when sick and eating the fine. This will make it more expensive for those who "play by the rules," and that isn't fair.
It's also not entirely accurate, said Jonathan Cohn in The New Republic. The analysis of the Baucus bill, by PriceWaterhouseCoopers, is right that the weak individual mandate spells "trouble," but it also "leaves out some pretty big things," like the lack of subsidies to help poorer people buy in. Other "fishiness" from the study includes unexplained "strange assumptions" about insurers raising rates and businesses buying the costlier insurance.

Instead, he made his presence known in one of the loudest, most spectacular ways possible. In only the fifth start of his Cup career, in 2009 at Talladega Superspeedway, Keselowski refused to back off as Carl Edwards attempted to block him on the low side of the track as the two drivers raced toward the finish line. As a result, Keselowski clipped the rear end of Edwards' car, sending it airborne and into the catch-fence along the track's front stretch. With carnage raining behind him, Keselowski sped away to his first Cup victory in one of the wildest finishes in NASCAR history.It would have been easy for a young racer in his position -- driving for a part-time operation, no less -- to express regret for the incident that took out an established star in the sport. But just as he had done on the track, Keselowski did not back off one bit in his post-race comments that day."I'm sure [Edwards] probably regrets that now, but I certainly don't," Keselowski said after the race in 2009. "It was up to him on whether he wanted to run me down or not, and he did, and I just held my ground. I was here to win and I've got no other reason to be here than to win and put these guys in victory lane. Holding your line was the way to do it."I'd do the same thing again. Trust me in what I say: without hesitation."We should have all known right then that this was no one-win wonder. Despite his boyish looks and lack of Cup experience (he was only 25 years old at the time), Keselowski immediately was displaying the win-at-all-costs mentality that most of the great drivers have. Would Dale Earnhardt Sr. or Tony Stewart have backed off in a similar situation, even as Cup rookies? It's extremely unlikely.Yet here we are three years later still seemingly underestimating Keselowski. His victory at Chicagoland Speedway on Sunday in the first race in this season's Chase for the Sprint Cup Championship gives Keselowski a total of seven wins over the past two seasons, second during that span only to Tony Stewart, who has eight. Keselowski was the hottest driver on the circuit entering this year's Chase, with six top-five finishes and nine top-10s in the previous 10 races.But despite all his success, Keselowski was rarely mentioned as one of the favorites to win the championship. Most analysts went with five-time champion Jimmie Johnson. Others chose Denny Hamlin, who entered the Chase with a series-best four victories this year. Greg Biffle was considered to be a legitimate contender, as was defending champ Stewart even though he limped into the Chase with only one top-10 in his previous five starts. Even Jeff Gordon was given a decent shot despite needing a furious rally to secure the final Chase berth in the last race of the regular season.SI.COM'S PREDICTIONS FOR THE 2012 SPRINT CUP CHASEAs for Keselowski, he was considered by most to be a dark horse at best. Yes, he is a talented driver with great potential, but this is still only his third full season in Sprint Cup racing. Certainly it must be too soon for him to actually win the championship. Right?Well, maybe not. Keselowski currently sits atop the standings with a three-point lead over Johnson and an eight-point edge over Stewart. And he continues to display his racing bravado and overall disregard for what his fellow drivers might think. Following the final round of pit stops at Chicago, Keselowski pulled onto the track in front of Johnson, forcing Johnson to lift off the gas ever so slightly. That was enough to enable Keselowski to take a lead he would never relinquish. Johnson's crew chief, Chad Knaus, loudly complained to NASCAR officials that Keselowski had re-entered the track too soon, but to no avail.Keselowski proclaimed his innocence when asked about the incident after the race, though he did so with a bit of attitude."There is no enforced line like you see in other sports, and that's not a bad thing. That's just one more thing to monitor during the race," Keselowski said. "You can make rules that count it down to the inches and just make it a pain in the ass for everybody that participates in the sport, or you can just have a [general] rule like we do, and I felt like I was inside those guidelines."Keselowski is a lot like the football or basketball player who can irritate other teams, but is beloved by those who play with him. His swagger rubs off on his pit crew, which has consistently been one of the best in the business this season. Even 75-year-old team owner Roger Penske says that Keselowski's attitude can be infectious."He has been an amazing young guy," Penske said following Sunday's race "He's a very constructive driver from the standpoint of our people within the company. We had a lunch this past Monday. Brad just revs them up. He goes around and thanks them, and that's important. These [Cup drivers] are big deals, big stars. But I think he has the roots from his family and the way he started to work with everybody from top to bottom. [Sunday] was a byproduct of that."He won't let me sleep, I'll tell you that. I get Twitters [from him]. I'm a big texter now. He and I are talking all the time. I tell him, 'I've got to get to my day job sometime.'"Keselowski was in Penske's ear even before he was driving for him. During the 2009 season, while running a handful of races for James Finch -- the part-time owner who supplied him with the winning car at Talladega -- and then Hendrick Motorsports, Keselowski was already campaigning for a full-time Cup ride."At one point he came by to see us and said that he'd like to come and race for our team," Penske recalled. "He said, 'When I do come, I want to help build a team to win the championship.' That was the year before he started with us. He's been focused."He went through a lot of rigmarole [early in his Cup career], some maybe he was due, some he wasn't. But I think he's managed to develop a lot of rapport with the drivers. I think they trust him wheel to wheel. He's not a reckless guy at all."Indeed, despite Keselowski's willingness to push things to the very edge, most of his fellow drivers do not seem to harbor any ill will toward him. Even Johnson did not appear to be overly upset about Keselowski cutting in front of him near the end of Sunday's race."It did impede my progress. I had to check up and wasn't sure where things were going," Johnson said calmly. "But it didn't affect the outcome, I don't believe. The way he made quick work in traffic and stretched it out on me, I'm not sure I would have held him off. At the time it messed me up, but I don't think it played an outcome in the race."Either way, in the end it was Keselowski -- not Johnson -- celebrating in victory lane. That is the bottom-line objective for Keselowski whenever he slides behind the steering wheel of his racecar."It's my goal to be a Sprint Cup champion, to be a winner," Keselowski said. "Racing is one of the few things I've ever done in my life that has been able to take me to another level mentally and physically. [...] I approach it as though I was a baseball player at the plate, and you know there are 100 mile-an-hour fastballs coming at you all the time. There's always somebody trying to beat you. But if I go down, I'm going to go down swinging the bat as hard as I can each and every time."

U.K. Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg attacked his coalition partner, David Cameron, arguing that the prime minister's Conservative Party is too extreme to be allowed to govern alone.
In an indication of how he intends to position his Liberal Democrats in the runup to the 2015 election, Clegg told party activists at their annual conference in Glasgow, Scotland, this evening that his intervention had stopped the Tories from removing employment protections.
"The Conservatives have a bizarre idea that to create more jobs you need to increase insecurity," Clegg said. "They are the party of fire at will. Without us, job security would have been a thing of the past, with employers able to get rid of staff on a whim."
Support for the Liberal Democrats has collapsed since they went into government with the Tories in 2010. Opinion polls show only 10 percent of voters back the party. That's less than half what they got at the 2010 election and puts the Liberal Democrats behind the anti-European Union, anti-immigration U.K. Independence Party.
Clegg also confirmed that the government will introduce a charge of 5 pence (8 U.S. cents) for plastic shopping bags starting in 2015, in an effort to reduce waste and litter.
The Liberal Democrats have concluded from their own internal polling that 75 percent of the electorate will not vote for it and it is concentrating its message on the 25 percent who have said they might, according to a party official who declined to be identified.
Seats Warning
Matthew Oakeshott, a Liberal Democrat lawmaker in the House of Lords, called on Sept. 12 for Clegg to step down. In an interview in the House magazine, he said that unless there is a change of leader, the Liberal Democrats could have just 20 lawmakers after 2015, down from 55 today.
That came less than a week after a former education minister, Sarah Teather, said she was quitting as a Liberal Democrat lawmaker because the coalition government's policies on welfare and immigration made her "catastrophically depressed."
Teather announced she is quitting the House of Commons at the next election because she no longer feels Clegg's party fights enough for social justice and a liberal immigration policy. She said "something broke" inside her when her party backed a cap on the amount of welfare a household can claim.
The party's president, Tim Farron, echoed Clegg's anti-Conservative line in a speech to the conference earlier today, saying that "the Tories exist to promote the interests of the richest inhabitants of the square mile of the City of London."
Clegg told activists they should be proud of the party's record in government and hold their course now that the economy is starting to improve.
"We can tell people how we took the right decisions in government to make sure interest rates were kept down and to protect people from the economic crises we have seen elsewhere in Europe," Clegg said. "This is a great party and in a short space of time we have achieved great things."

Kingston man sentenced for sexually assaulting boy
David R. Ramsey, 68, formerly of 19 Depot Road, pleaded guilty to two counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault in Rockingham County Superior Court for touching the 12-year-old boy during a sleepover at the home.
Assistant County Attorney Jerome Blanchard said on Wednesday that the victim was sleeping over Ramsey's house sometime in October 2009 when he was groped twice.
The boy's family was made aware of the incident the next day, but the matter wasn't reported right away, according to prosecutors.
The plea deal allowed Ramsey to avoid a trial, and the prospect of a much longer state prison sentence. Had a jury convicted Ramsey, he could have faced up to 10 to 20 years in state prison for each of the charges.
