The Fieldmaster Collar (Black)
A sophisticated take on hunting chic in finest English Bridle Leather
from £55.00
In traditional hunting lingua franca, the "Field Master" refers to the individual who leads and controls the Field during the day's hunt. He (usually) is the final authority on all matters of horse, hound or otherwise. What a fitting name then for this unquestionably handsome black leather collar.
Top grade English Bridle Leather sourced from one of only 3 UK tanners licensed to pit tan, these premium leather collars are produced by a small heritage manufacturer who have been crafting fine English leather products for over 200 years. Ralph Lauren, Mulberry and Paul Smith are also clients.
We love the bold use of colour contrasted against the deep rich grain of the natural dark leather, and the mildly quirky yet entirely appropriate application of chromed animal motifs elevate these stunners to a whole new level.
Fantastic on larger short haired hunting breeds… or any noble beast that knows his rightful place in the world.
Our supplier is based in the Cotswolds, in the heart of the beautiful Oxfordshire countryside. Bettina Weimar Eisenach designs with a smile. Innovative, playful and full of character, her goods could be similarly described.
We are excited to bring you these stunning and unique hunt-inspired hound collars, and hope they feature in your own adventures to come.
For advice on measuring your dog's neck, please refer to our Shop Guide (under Size & Fit).

Hi Kris, This is an overnight test, and this has been reported by one of our users as well. (on the same test, multiple times ...) Basically, this thread has been like this for at least 4-5 hours, so I don't think anything is going to unblock this anymore. All the other thread of the test are in a normal wait position, and the system is not using any resource anymore, so it should not be blocked by other operation. Most of the other requests are actually taking less than 10ms to execute. The stress test is sending 2,000,000 transactions with each 3 write requests in it. The backend is still acessible using the psql command line tool ... I am just wondering what is happening. If you have any idea, indication please let me know.

TV dance judge Len Goodman marries in secret
British reality TV star Len Goodman will ring in 2013 with a new wife after marrying in secret on Sunday. The professional ballroom dancer, who serves as a judge on "Dancing With the Stars," exchanged vows with dance teacher Sue Barrett, his partner of more than 10 years. The couple invited 30 relatives and close friends to lunch at Mosimann's private restaurant in London, and took their guests by surprise when they stood up for the ceremony.
RELATED: 2012 Year in Celebrity
Goodman tells Britain's Daily Mail, "I've had a marvelous day, and now my gorgeous Sue is the new Mrs. Goodman."
RELATED: Wedding bells in 2013
"I wanted it to be a low-key affair, so we didn't tell anyone except my 96-year-old mum, as I didn't want her having a heart attack with the surprise. We've had a marvelous day, with marvelous food, surrounded by all my dearest friends -- and it didn't go on for too long, so it didn't get boring!
RELATED: Hottest couples of 2012
"I've been going out with my lovely Sue for ages, and I decided it was time to pop the question. She's gorgeous and makes me very happy -- though she likes to stay out of the limelight. It was a complete surprise to my friends and family today, and we've had a fabulous time."
Goodman was previously married to his dance partner Cherry Kingston and has a 31-year-old son, James, with his second wife, Lesley.

Three Dots and a Cloud Of Dust …
Hard to top last week, when we said goodbye to two assholes (Bill Belichick and Bobby Knight) and hello to a hero (Nolan Ryan). Today, however, could be just as delicious as sports climbs atop Capitol Hill. NFL commish Roger Goodell will try to 'splain why his league destroyed the Patriots' spying evidence -- and, of course, TV's best reality show climaxes this morning as Roger Clemens and Brian McNamee take their "he said-he said" under oath. Though it's shame on you if you believe one word from John Rocker, expect the Rangers to be mentioned a least a couple times …
Couple of items from Valley Ranch. It's a formality that the Cowboys will promote Tom Ciskowski to director of scouting. Unlike Jeff Ireland, however, Ciskowski will not earn the additional title of vice president. Also moving up the flow chart, director of college scouting Chris Hall, who's been watching tape and evaluating talent since the Jimmy Johnson era. And, to reiterate, don't count on Dallas including Marion Barber in any trade to move up and draft Arkansas' Darren McFadden.
Though Jerry Jones is salivating over McFadden, son and VP Stephen is adamant about retaining Barber. For what it's worth, Dallas' current draft board ranks the running backs, in order, as such: McFadden, Arkansas teammate Felix Jones, Oregon's Jonathan Stewart, Illinois' Rashard Mendenhall and Texas' Jamaal Charles …
Just saw -- again -- those incessant Sports Illustrated ads celebrating the Giants' Super Bowl win. On the ball commemorating New York's season: two lopsided losses to the Cowboys. Sickening … Speaking of Clemens, if you're entering a fight do you really want former Ranger Jose Canseco in your corner? …

Guess the Rangers' off-season moves to acquire Ben Broussard and -- yes, again -- Kevin Mench haven't exactly convinced the oddsmakers. Las Vegas spots them as a 100-1 long-shot to win the World Series, tied for biggest underdog on the board. Red Sox and Mets are favorites at 3.5-1. Behold the magic of Tom Hicks. Instead of ripping him for not signing Johan Santana, we're somehow lauding him for re-signing Ryan? …
David Beckham will make three appearances in Frisco this season. Leftovers, however, never taste quite as good …
Considering the Mavs' recent spiral, can Dirk Nowitzki's annual buzz cut be looming? …
If you've wondered why athletes and rappers and celebs don't travel safer, you're too late. A Dallas-based company is rolling out "Vault Transportation", which is basically a fleet of stylish, armored Hummer limos. The idea arose from Fort Worth native and Broncos player Darrent Williams getting shot through the door of his limo. I hear Shaquille O'Neal hopped in one after a Mavs' game recently and was immediately sold …
T.O. gets a Dallas radio show. Not Terrell Owens, mind you, but rather long-time Mavs physician Dr. T.O. Souryal. His popular "Inside Sports Medicine" has expanded to two hours Saturday mornings on ESPN 103.3 FM …
Two rules the NFL needs to tweak -- no, make that trash -- this season. First, the "force out." If a defender keeps a receiver from coming down with two feet inbounds, he should be rewarded. Duh. Otherwise, let's start awarding three points for field goals that are blocked by the middle of the line because we can assume the kick would've been good if not for the pesky defense. And, though it will negate one of Marion Barber's main weapons, it's not fair to allow running backs to stiff-arm defenders directly in the face mask, yet somehow penalize a cornerback for "illegal hands to the face" when bumping a receiver near the line of scrimmage …
When Eric Dickerson says he still cares about SMU football, believe it. As I write in this week's paper version of Unfair Park, Dickerson was the catalyst for bringing June Jones to Dallas. Furthermore, the dude still has "ponyexpress" as part of his personal e-mail address. --Richie Whitt

Location: Bethany Beach, DE
Project Type: New Construction
This oceanside home in Bethany Beach, Delaware, was designed to feel open and offer fantastic views of the coast. Marvin windows and doors played a significant role in defining the finished house—from form to function, as well as the feel. Given the coastal location, incredible demands were placed on the durability of materials. So hurricane-rated windows were a must to withstand the harsh climate. In addition, the fluctuating area temperatures demanded energy efficiency, while bringing in as much sunlight as possible. Geothermal HVAC systems, spray foam insulation, and a smart house energy management system accomplished the former task, while Marvin windows took care of the latter. In terms of feel, the custom arched windows, oval shapes, muntin patterns, and traditional façades let it be known that this home was born from the sea.

[trick] Leave console free for apps while running X
This is good:
startx &
Now you have a free console.
startx &> /dev/null &
No messages.
Now you can switch console/X session pressing Ctl+Alt+[1-6] and Ctl+Alt+[7<]
yes, if you use the ampersand ( & ) after running a program from the console or command, it runs it in the background.. now do you know how to bring it back ? :D
Uh, tried to fool me?:D
Just type in:
look which number is 'startx' then:
fg number
Try this too:
Now press Ctrl+Z and startx is in the background, leaving the console free...
well.. the fool worked.. ehh trickykid?
we do know all of these "tips" btw.
Ok, I just posted because YOU and YOUR friends must know EVERYTHING about Slackware, but there are lots of newbies in this forum.
I posted for THEM, NOT exactly for YOU, ok?
well they are not specific to slackware at all. i'd recommend similar posts go in the "linux - general" forum.
Hum... Ok.
Sorry the screams...
When you press CTRL+Z, startx will not be run in the background. It will be paused (at least the console says 'stopped'). You have to type: 'bg' (background) to unpause startx and to run it in the background. So CTRL+Z is not enough to move your startx into the background.
BTW: if you want to pull startx out of the background, just type 'fg' and it will return to you :)
Bringing X Back to Forground
The question that begs to be asked is, why would anyone *want* to bring X back to the forground? It's not as though it had any interative feaures. (If I'm wrong about this, someone please enlighten me.)
well, no particular reason i can think of, maybe you need to ctrl+c it..
To theguide:
I think so...
But, at least in my system, when you 'ps ax' you see X with a '?', quite like a daemon. There's no need of 'bg'. I can even log out and X continues running.
I don't know the X internals, but I think related to the server+client arch...
to acid:
Or maybe it could be easier to 'killall xinit' or 'startx'.
well yeah a kill -9 or something would be easier... just a potential reason.
You have no chance to survive, make your time!
I don't understand the > /dev/null & part of startx &> /dev/null &.
Also, acid_kewpie: why, as a moderator, would you discourage people from posting tips saying, "we do know all of these tips"?... as if everyone who enters this forum already knows all linux tips. I do agree that these particular tips are better posted in the general linux area though. I just don't understand the point of a moderator trying to make people feel dumb for posting something they apparently consider to be elementary. It would stand to reason that a lot of posts on a BBS for questions about a particular topic would involve subjects that the moderators already know in detail. That's one big reason for having moderator status. Anyway...
> /dev/null
/dev/null is a special device that goes... absolutely nowhere, the big bit bucket in the sky. (It's also a great device to use for backups. Guaranteed, backups will go many times faster.).
X outputs all kinds of status messages all the time. This can be useful for debugging when something goes wrong, but would make running X in the background almost useless, because the console is getting bombarded with the status messages. > is used to redicred standard output. In this case, we are redirectiong to /dev/null (quietly disposing of all the data.). Alternatively, you can redirect data to a file to keep a log (or for programs that output to STDOUT and you need to capture it)...
> /somedir/somefile.. Note that as well as STDOUT, there is also STDERR where most programs will send error messages. These are redirected independant of STDOUT with 2>.. for example: startx > /dev/null 2> /somedir/error.log
And finally, you only need one & for the whole thing.
startx > /dev/null &
of course people are perfectly free to post useful tips and such, but, being a continually changing forum, tips and such always sink without trace within a very short period of time. some point last year one guy took it upon himself to write a series of lengthy FAQ's that were quite good actually, but naturally as VERY few members ever use the search features on the site it dissapeared within a day.
In actual fact in a short while a few extra features are gonna be added to the site for tips and tutorials and stuff that will hang around permanently. I'm sure contributions will be welcome.

Agustin Peña, who is pursuing a career as a lawyer, will stand in a San Diego Superior court room as a victim Friday.
He will tell someone involved in his brother's murder how it turned his family's life upside down when several gang members mistook the 14-year-old for a rival.
It will be the second time Peña's done this in court in the past 10 months.
A judge sentenced Anthony Zendejas, then 22, to 44 years to life in prison in September for his role in two murders, one of them the shooting of Peña's brother, Javier Quiroz, in 2007. Friday, 23-year-old Abraham Franco, who was driving Zendejas and others around in City Heights that night, faces a maximum sentence of 80 years to life for his role in two murders, including Quiroz's.
As Peña did in September, he will read from a prepared statement prior to the judge's sentencing.
"Your siblings, parents and the rest of your family will have to continue their lives while you spend yours in prison," Peña's statements reads. "You may think to yourself that resorting to minimal contact with your family sounds horrible.... But at least you get to see your family. At least they're still breathing and you know that they're OK."
Peña said it hasn't gotten easier to express his hurt in words.
Mainly because nothing truly reflects the emptiness in our house and in our hearts. It's a difficult task to manifest such strong emotions into words because there aren't any that fully explain what we feel, especially the feeling on special occasions like birthdays and holidays. I feel worse for my sister because she was still young when this happened and at times needs to be reminded of who her older brother was. Though I take that upon myself, I shouldn't have to; Javy should be here to remind her himself.
The man believed to be the shooter that night remains at large, Peña said.
"Until he is brought to justice for his role in my brother's death, I will always have that looming in the back of my head," he said.
Peña is pursuing a law degree at California Western School of Law in San Diego and has tried to mentor young men to help them avoid a life of gangs. He expects to get his degree in April and take the bar exam a year from now.
We profiled him here in a story that ran in August and this month won first place in feature writing at the annual awards banquet of the Society of Professional Journalists San Diego chapter. We covered the Zendejas sentencing here.

BY VINCENT UJUMADU, Awka
AS part of efforts to reclaim governorship which it lost to All Progressives Grand, APGA, in 2003, the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Anambra State has started sensitizing the members on ways of shopping for a credible person to carry its governorship flag in the election.
The governorship election in the state will take place in December next year.
State chairman of the party, Chief Kenneth Emeakayi, at the take- off of the sensitizing programme at Oye Market square, Ukpo in Dunukofia local government area, advised those interested in contesting the governorship election on the platform of PDP to start identifying with the party without further delay. He insisted that PDP has not endorsed anybody as being speculated, assuring the people that the era of foisting candidates on the people was over as every interested governorship aspirant should be ready to slug it out with others during the party's primaries, which would be held in the next six months.
He said: "The promise we made at Abuja (at the last meeting) is that PDP flag will fly at the Anambra State Government House in 2014 and we have started what we tag operation deliver your booth for every member."
The chairman charged all the wards and local government executive members of the party to go back to their areas to fish for more members to make the forthcoming election easy for PDP.
At the meeting, theAnambraState-born oil magnate business mogul, Prince Arthur Eze threw his weight behind the new leadership of PDP in the state, urging those in charge to do what is humanly possible to take over the state in 2014.
According to a goodwill letter he sent to the party, Eze reminded them that the only way to achieve the objective was for them to be united and sincere in all their actions.


text: Christmas is over, and I need to re-capitalize the Model A project. I have several lenses I've harvested from the Lens Bunker for that purpose. This is a Gundlach Instantaneous Symmetrical 17X20 lens. Or for the Brits, 20X17!! The Gundlach Instantaneous Symmetrical is a convertible, so that means the rear alone is about 50" focus and covers a small city block. Combined it is 26" f8. It isn't physically unmanageable since it works at f8. It only measures a little over 4 inches across. It's some kind of an Aplanat, since I can see cement on the far edges up front. The aperture is smooth, and the glass is lovely. As you go up in size from 8X10, each next size is about +10 times rarer than the preceeding one. ie. 10,000 8X10 lenses 1,000 1oX12 lenses, 100 11X14 lenses, 10 14X17 lenses : 1 17X20. My numbers are conservative. Don't ask for sources............this is the internet! $615.00 for this.

I just have a problem with her walk. She uses her broad shoulders like a man.
I honestly don't think her walk is bad, I kinda like it.It could use some work, but so could everyone else's....
I really really hope Tyra doesn't give them walking lessons.
Her walk is a little masculine, but because of that, I see it as strong and forceful. I am warming up to it a lot.
You don't know me like that.
Since when is McKey's walk bad? From what I recall she did damn well on that runway challenge according to the designer. I think she has a decent walk and not bad at all.
It's not conventional so maybe that's why some thinks it's bad?
But I love it all.
You don't know me like that.
McKey is so winning, I don't see Analeigh winning at all TBH.

text: Court documents reveal Monsanto settlement details By Ken Ward Jr. March 7, 2012 Story Share Read the settlement documentsCHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Thousands of current and former Nitro residents will be eligible for periodic medical testing that could become more frequent if monitoring shows they have high levels of toxic dioxin in their blood, according to previously confidential settlement documents in a major lawsuit against Monsanto Co.The documents, obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, outline far more details than had been made public to date by the court or the lawyers in a $93 million settlement that could end years of litigation."Plaintiffs have sought two remedies in this litigation: medical monitoring and property cleanup," lawyers for the residents said in a court filing. "The class settlements provide both."Word of the settlement first emerged two weeks ago, on the eve of an expected six-month trial in a case in which Nitro-area residents sought medical monitoring for dioxin-related illnesses and a cleanup of what they argued was a contaminated community.For more than 50 years, the former Monsanto plant in Nitro churned out herbicides, rubber products and other chemicals. The plant's production of the defoliant Agent Orange created dioxin as a toxic chemical byproduct.In a 2008 class action suit, residents sought medical monitoring for at least 5,000 -- and perhaps as many as 80,000 -- current and former Nitro residents.Last month, chemical giant Monsanto agreed to pay up to $84 million for medical monitoring and $9 million to clean up 4,500 homes."Class Counsel has handled numerous cases of this type over many decades and fully appreciates the strengths and weaknesses of Plaintiffs' case, the challenges he faces in prevailing during a lengthy trial, and the very real risk that the class members he has aggressively represented and whose cause he has championed for many years may end up with nothing," Stuart Calwell, the lead plaintiff's attorney wrote in a brief urging the judge to approve the deal. Monsanto has also agreed to pay up to $29.5 million in legal fees and costs for the plaintiff lawyers. Calwell will ask for $22.5 million in fees, 18 percent of the value of the settlement, and $7 million in costs, according to court documents. The judge must approve the fees and costs.A gag order prevents attorneys from speaking to the media about the case.On Monday, Charleston attorney Tom Urban filed a motion requesting the gag order be lifted to allow discussion of the proposed settlement. Urban represents some area residents, but was not appointed to serve as "class counsel" for the overall community. In court filings, Urban has raised questions about the adequacy of the settlement and sought more details about how it was negotiated.The medical monitoring and cleanup provisions of the case cover residents within a smaller area than was included in the original class-action area, with the settlement focused on an area where experts for the plaintiffs' lawyers believed dioxin emissions from Monsanto were most likely to have put residents at risk of future pollution-related diseases.According to the medical monitoring portion of the proposed settlement, Monsanto will pay $3 million for each of seven screening periods, or $21 million. Those who are determined eligible to be tested for disease will receive free medical exams and testing at Thomas Healthcare System in South Charleston. Between 3,000 and 5,000 people are estimated to be eligible for the medical tests. The initial health screening will include blood tests and a standard health history report. Also, samples will be taken to determine how much dioxin participants have in their blood. Other blood tests will be used to determine blood sugar, cholesterol and blood count, which can provide early detection of cancer and other diseases.These tests would then be performed every five years. If 25 percent or more of the participants in the program are found to have more than certain "background" levels of dioxin in their blood, increased frequency of the medical tests kicks in, from every five years to every two years, which Monsanto has agreed to provide up to $63 million in additional funding for, according to court documents.To be eligible, you must have at least worked full-time, gone to school full-time or lived in the geographic area covered between Jan. 1, 1948, and Sept. 3, 2010. You must also fall within one of a certain set of criteria -- based on your age and the time period when you lived, worked or went to school in Nitro -- that are spelled out in the settlement. Former employees of Monsanto Co. are not eligible to participate in medical monitoring.Under the settlement, residents have retained their right to file personal injury suits against Monsanto if medical tests turn up illnesses potentially related to dioxin exposure. Separately from the class-action settlement, nearly 200 personal-injury cases Calwell's firm had pending against Monsanto have been settled. Details of those settlements have not been disclosed.Court documents appear to show that residents must sign up separately for the medical monitoring and property cleanup settlements.Monsanto will spend $3 million per year for three years, or a total of $9 million to provide cleaning services meant to remove dioxin from 4,500 homes in the settlement area. The cleanups include vacuuming carpets, rugs and accessible horizontal surfaces with a High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter vacuum, wet cleaning floors, floor vents, tops of doors and window moldings, window mullions, interior window sills, window troughs, ceiling fans and light fixtures and radiators.The cleanup targets easily accessible areas in living spaces, and does not include attics, garages, utility rooms, outbuildings, utility sheds, closets, internal shelving and drawers in furniture or cabinets. Residents will be responsible for moving any objects sitting on top of accessible surfaces prior to cleaning, according to court documents.The property cleanup portion of the settlement was unforeseen after Judges O.C. Spaulding and Derek Swope issued rulings last year that threw out that part of the case. Even though the decertification of the property class had been appealed, a Supreme Court decision probably wouldn't have happened anytime soon.Before an agreement in a class-action lawsuit is finalized, the members of the class must be notified of the proposed settlement and given a chance to object to its terms. According to court filings, the class must be notified by April 5.A fairness hearing has been scheduled for 9 a.m. June 18, where expert testimony must be presented to prove the settlement is appropriate. It appears that only people who have signed up will be allowed to speak for or against the settlement. The deadline to request to speak is June 7.Class members can object to the settlement by writing to the circuit clerk in Putnam County, 3389 Winfield Rd., Winfield, W.Va. 25213. Objections must include the name of the case, Bibb v. Monsanto, No. 04-C-465, and include their name, address, telephone number and signature of the class members, and state "facts to support your claim that you are a member of the" class and the reasons for the objection.Copies of the settlement documents, including a motion seeking their preliminary approval, were originally sealed by Swope. After they were unsealed, Putnam Circuit Clerk Ronnie Matthews initially declined to provide electronic copies of the documents at a reasonable cost until the Gazette filed a formal FOIA request for the records.

One set was to be for using it frameless and the other for using with the frame. I still have not received either set. I was wondering if anyone who has ordered them since February 1, 2013 has actually received them. I know he has substituted the lite speed oars for the power strokes on some occasions, even though that is not what the customer wanted.

Gov. Chris Christie's re-election campaign reported raising more than $2.1 million in a little over a month, officials said.
The campaign, which launched on Nov. 26, boasted raising the amount "without a single event and in the midst of the holiday season."
"Governor Christie's campaign continues to gain momentum because New Jerseyans believe in his decisive leadership," said campaign strategist Mike DuHaime in a statement.
"This unprecedented financial support in such a short time demonstrates the overwhelming support from residents across the Garden State. Governor Christie has made tough choices to achieve real progress on meaningful reforms for all New Jerseyans," he said. "Whether it's cutting taxes, improving education or pension and benefit reform, Governor Christie has fought for a middle-class reform agenda that protects taxpayers and reins in the cost of government."
The lone declared candidate among Democratic elected officials hoping to challenge Christie, state Sen. Barbara Buono, raised nearly $250,000.

Walters calls for TV drama funding
Julie Walters called for funding for important drama productions to be secured after scooping the best actress TV Bafta.
Julie was named Leading Actress for her role in Channel 4 drama Mo, in which she played late Labour politician Mo Mowlam .
Backstage at the ceremony, she was asked if there should be more funding for drama. "Important drama touches people," she said. "I'm not saying it changes the world but seeds are planted. It's really important and, yes, the money should be made available."
Julie said she had harboured "huge doubts" about whether she could portray Mowlam.
She said: "I got some footage of Mo and I thought, 'Oh my God, I don't think I can do this, that voice'. Everything was so specific about her. I rang the agent and said, 'I don't think I can do this', and he said b******* basically."
She said she had driven people mad trying to get Mowlam's voice exactly right.
Julie had also been nominated for her performance in A Short Stay In Switzerland, the BBC One drama inspired by the story of Dr Anne Turner, who took her own life in Zurich in 2006.
She said she was worried "that I would go up and thank the BBC instead of Channel 4, but it was odd because both of them meant a huge amount to me… wonderful scripts and very special somehow".
She added: "It was very hard work being Mo actually… Mo was so dynamic and she drove every scene and she was in every scene, so it was hard work."

Possibly the finest moment from Yes, Prime Minister:
Month: May 2010
It was as if thousands of iPhones cried out at once, and were silenced
I noticed an odd thing on my way home from work on Monday night. The data connectivity on my iPhone (which I tend to use continuously on train commutes) just died. I arrived home, hopped on the wifi and forgot about it. But there is an explanation:
"It was very hot yesterday and the airconditioning at our datacentre in Croydon failed," said Bob Dunn, general manager of customer experience at O2. "It had to be cooled down, and there was a network outage in London."
Slightly startling that the connections we have come to rely on are so dependent on airconditioning…

How Deep In Data Should We Dive?
Nice summation of data journalism, and how much the average hack should know:
Journalism is about asking the right questions. We research stories before we interview subjects so that we can ask pertinent questions whose answers will illuminate the subject. We need to be able to do the same thing with our data – we need to know what questions to ask and how, so that even if we can't make the tools ourselves we can hand over the task to someone else without asking the impossible or wasting their time.

Modeling Spatial Sustainability: Spatial Welfare Economics versus Ecological Footprint
A spatial welfare framework for the analysis of the spatial dimensions of sustainability is developed. It incorporates agglomeration effects, interregional trade, negative environmental externalities and various land use categories. The model is used to compare rankings of spatial configurations according to evaluations based on social welfare and ecological footprint indicators. Five spatial configurations are considered for this purpose. The exercise is operationalized with the help of a two-region model of the economy that is in line with the 'new economic geography'. Various (counter) examples show that the footprint method is not consistent with an approach aimed at maximum social welfare.

SCOTLAND'S retail sector matched the overall UK performance in the crucial trading month of December, with 1.5% year-on-year growth in sales value – after nearly two years of underperforming – but volumes were at best flat given inflation.
The improvement in trading on Scotland's high streets last month, from a very poor showing to one that is still weak by historical standards, is revealed in figures published today by the Scottish Retail Consortium (SRC) industry body.
The 1.5% annual pace of increase in the total value of Scottish retail sales in December was a big improvement on the 1.2% year-on-year fall recorded in November.
Loading article content
However, the British Retail Consortium (BRC) has calculated that annual shop price inflation was 1.5% in December. And it last week put year-on-year growth in UK retail sales value in December at 1.5%.
On the basis of the SRC and BRC numbers, December retail sales volumes in Scotland and the UK as a whole were unchanged from a year earlier.
Figures published yesterday by the Office for National Statistics revealed annual UK consumer prices index inflation stood at 2.7% in December.
Tough festive trading conditions, against a backdrop of weak UK consumer confidence, have been highlighted in recent days by the collapse of photographic retailer Jessops and entertainment goods chain HMV.
The overall Scottish retail sector did, however, manage to record a strong turnaround in non-food sales, the more discretionary element of consumer spending, in December on the basis of the SRC figures. The value of non-food sales in Scotland last month was up 1.5% on the previous December – the joint-best annual pace of increase since spring 2011 and the first year-on-year advance in 2012. This followed a 4.7% year-on-year plunge in November.
And, with the BRC putting annual non-food shop price inflation at around zero, sales in this category were also up by about 1.5% in real terms.
The value of food sales in Scotland last month was up 1.4% on December 2011. This represents a significant slowing from a 2.6% year-on-year pace of increase in November. And it indicates a significant year-on-year fall in the volume of food sales, given the BRC puts annual food price inflation at 4.1%.
Fiona Moriarty, director of the SRC, said of the December sales figures: "Coming at the end of a relentlessly tough year for Scottish customers and retailers, this is a relatively good result. After a year of belt-tightening that left Scottish retailing consistently underperforming the UK as a whole, it seems significant numbers of people decided to put their jobs and money worries on hold, and spend."
She added: "For the first time in nearly two years, Scottish sales growth was not below the UK figure. At least when set against retailers' low expectations, that is something to celebrate."
Katherine Armstead, senior portfolio manager at Land Securities, said the property group's Scottish shopping centres had "remained resilient throughout the Christmas period".
Land Securities is joint owner of Buchanan Galleries in Glasgow, and its portfolio also includes shopping centres in Livingston, Dundee and Aberdeen.
Ms Armstead said: "Buchanan Galleries saw an 8% increase in footfall over December, with 1.8 million visitors to the centre, while many of the brands within our centres throughout Scotland, such as John Lewis, Next and Debenhams, have reported record Christmas trading, which shows consumers are still buying."

Love that this is a BB creme with such a high SPF and luckily for me, it matches my skintone pretty much spot on, I'm very warm and beige and so is this creme. In the summer it's a tad too light for my naturally tanned skin but the Dior SA advised to use a bit of bronzer (I use any kind) and it really helps to keep the color true to my skin. It does not feel very hydrating but as I have oily skin this is perfect for me, it leaves my skin so very matte and in a natural way! While I do still have to blot throughout the day I have overactive hormones to blame for that.
The coverage is surprisingly impressive! It covers SO much more than Laura Mercier's Tinted Moisturizer (which I also love, I use the shade Sand which is a perfect match), looks perfectly like natural skin (just make sure you use the heat of your fingers to blend it into your skin), my uneven skintone evens out with this stuff and it even helps to mute out redness of my acne & acne scarring (not completely, but a lot more than I'd expect from a BB creme!). It took me some time to figure out how to use than one pump for my entire face because it dries like instantly after I first rub it into my skin but I've found that spraying my face lightly with rosewater just prior to putting this one helps so much to blend less than one pump onto my entire face and neck. Really love this! As with all BB cremes though, I would suggest testing out the color to see how compatible it is with your skin.

Tom and Elizabeth Burke got their first inkling of what life would be like at The Gatesworth before they even moved in. "They have a moving assistant who comes in and assesses what furniture from your home can come to your new apartment," Elizabeth Burke explains. "We had so much furniture and too many things, and she helps decide what can fit. She's with you the day you move in, and she stays with you all day—it's like they're holding your hand." Burke thought this in itself was a helpful service, but the fact that the assistant came all the way from St. Louis to the couple's Chicago-area home was beyond expectations. "She had a daughter who was looking at Loyola University, so she was able to come to our house while she was there."
The couple, each 73, decided to make the move in April because St. Louis is where two of their six children (and five of their 14 grandchildren) live. "We wanted to make a change for ourselves before our children had to for us," Burke explains. "We looked at many places, both here and in Chicago. The minute we walked into The Gatesworth, it was such a wonderful, friendly atmosphere and it was so beautiful."
Since moving, the couple hasn't looked back. "This place enriches our lives," Burke says. "We're just very fortunate and very lucky. We have to pinch ourselves every day. It's just a very stimulating place to be, with the activities and conversations with the other residents, who are all very learned and have great, diverse backgrounds." She's tried out many of the activities, including the Current Events group, continuing education, movie nights, the walking club and day trips. "Being from out of town, we want to get to know the area."
Their new residence also has relieved many of the burdens of home ownership, Burke says. "The apartments are cleaned once a week; and if you're unable, you can call a personal assistant who will do your laundry and make certain that you have all your errands and appointments taken care of. There's a limo that will take you different places like shopping. We always say it's like a cruise ship that has docked—it's even better than that, because everyone is so kind. The staff's motto is 'Ask us what you need, and the answer is always yes.' That's what they say, and it's true."
But the greatest joy is being close to family, Burke says, noting that Tom, a sports enthusiast, gets to see all of their grandchildren's Little League games. "He even got to help coach at a few of them; he was just thrilled with that," she says. "This is all keeping us young."

The Nationwide Series returns to action next weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway
LAS VEGAS, Nevada – Roush Fenway drivers Trevor Bayne and Travis Pastrana finished fourth and 10th respectively in Saturday's Nationwide Series race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The finishes marked the 31st and 32nd NNS top-10 finishes in 42 series starts at LVMS for RFR.
Trevor Bayne started second and led 21 laps early, before making contact with the outside wall on lap 88 after getting hit by the No. 32. Still, the team furiously battled back to a top-five finish.
These guys never gave up and we got the World Financial Ford back inside the top-five."
Pastrana started the race 31st after rain forced the cancellation of Friday's qualifying. Exhibiting the poise of a veteran, he patiently maneuvered his way through the field for his second top-10 finish in three races in 2013.
The Nationwide Series returns to action next weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway, where Roush Fenway has won five times in Nationwide Series action.
RFR and the Sprint Cup Series return to action for tomorrow's 400-mile Sprint Cup event. The race is set for 3:00 p.m. EDT and will be televised live on FOX.

Women Standing Up and Moving Forward
If women get out and vote for President Obama this November, we'll win by a landslide. If they sit on the sidelines, we'll lose. Women have too much at stake this election not to get involved to move this country forward.
President Obama's support for women is key for Virginia women whose health and reproductive rights have been trampled on in the state legislature. We can do something about it if we get the women's vote out.
In so many Southwest Virginia households, women are the breadwinners, but they are not receiving equal pay. In an area where unemployment is higher than elsewhere in the state, that's really hurting families. President Obama understands that the issues we face are shared by other rural communities across the country and he is working to make sure women have equal pay and access to affordable health care.
President Obama's visit this week gives us a chance to show him that, here in rural Virginia, there is a lot of support. The Southwest Virginia Women For Obama team will be standing shoulder-to-shoulder in our blue Obama t-shirts this week in Roanoke to tell him, "We support you!"
We know that if we lose the White House, everything that is important to women and middle-class families will be dialed back. People are fed up with the hypocrisy from the other side and the promises that are out of reach of hardworking middle-class families.
We have too much at stake in this election to sit on the sidelines in this election. Women need to stand up and move this country forward together.

Pregnancy Test!
Hey fellow Berries! Tomorrow my husband is driving me to the OB/GYN and we're going to see if I'm pregnant. I've been feeling very nauseous, tired, and irritable. My youngest Zhoe turned 4 in December and we are ready to have more. I'm a little nervous, I'm afraid they're are going to tell me I'm not pregnant and we're really wanting another child. I'm making a name list right now, for boys and girls. Oh, and let's not forget it could be twins, seeing as how I'm a twin, Colin (my husband) has two sets of twin brothers, and Isobel & Liv (my 6 year old daughters) are fraternal twins! Wow. This is crazy, 4 children. Lol, a lot to take in.

Well, I don't know, my husband and I thought going to the doctor would be more efficient. We've never used a home pregnancy test, I don't really know why though.

San Antonio, TX, United States, 2006/03/28 - Frost & Sullivan finds that the U.S Cardiac Rhythm Management Market earned revenues of $5.99 billion in 2005 and estimates this to reach $16.79 billion in 2012..
Recalls in the Cardiac Rhythm Management Devices industry, affecting over 200,000 devices from most major manufacturers, lead to heightened anxiety over device safety resulting in decreased market growth for 2005. Manufacturers, capable of handling heightened regulatory scrutiny in addition to the challenge of assuaging provider and patient apprehension over device safety, should be able to capitalize on the continued overwhelming patient need for interventional cardiac arrhythmia treatment. The high degree of spending and effort put in to CRM technology has produced a more refined arsenal of devices to diagnose and correct cardiac arrhythmias than ever before. Equally, as patient demand continues to surge this combination of demand and technological developments, including rate adaptive pacing and remote telemonitoring, opens up a great opportunity for market expansion in the Cardiac Rhythm Management Market.
Frost & Sullivan finds that the U.S Cardiac Rhythm Management Market earned revenues of $5.99 billion in 2005 and estimates this to reach $16.79 billion in 2012.
If you are interested in a virtual brochure, which provides manufacturers, end users, and other industry participants an overview of the latest analysis of the U.S Cardiac Rhythm Management Market, then send an e-mail to Melina Trevino - Corporate Communications at melina.trevino[.]frost.com with the following information: your full name, company name, title, telephone number, e-mail address, city, state, and country. We will send you the information via email upon receipt of the above information.
Refinement of implantation procedures and progression of technology have drastically improved the viability of utilizing medical device technology to effectively and comprehensively treat patients living with the life-threatening and debilitating side effects of cardiac arrhythmia, explains Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Venkat Rajan.
The difference between an open-heart procedure compared to a minimally invasive approach is drastic in the minds of providers evaluating a patient for a medical device implant or cardiac ablation procedure. The ability to accurately perform lead placement and cardiac ablation lesion targeting is paramount to the long-term success of the procedure. Advancements in imaging, navigational tools, and device size have enabled a new leap in cardiac rhythm treatment.
"One of the biggest challenges in the cardiac rhythm management market, as in many industries, is trying to supplant a market leader that has controlled over 50 percent of the market for the past 20 years," notes Rajan. "Altering market perception of ones products, and establishing brand recognition on safety and reliability over all other market participants in order to expand market size is a significant hurdle."
Unlike other medical device markets, the CRM market is not hindered by long-term distributor alliances, or bulk sale discounts. Market participants that can couple the inherent swell of demand for CRM products with an aggressive marketing strategy could significantly expand their market role. Combining an understanding of external market perception of ones devices, and incorporation of device features that provide the most customer value, supported by a robust and skilled sales team are some of the core elements necessary to ensure long-term success.
U.S. Cardiac Rhythm Management Market is part of the Medical Device Subscription, which also includes research in the following markets: Medical Catheters Market, U.S. Congestive Heart Failure Devices Market. All research included in subscriptions provide detailed market opportunities and industry trends that have been evaluated following extensive interviews with market participants. Interviews are available to the press.

I No Longer Dance: A personal struggle with degenerative disc disease
I No Longer Dance reveals an athlete's devastating physical and emotional struggle of enduring a painful and crippling disease.
The author, Alice Randall Cocca, suffered from degenerative disc disease, D. D. D., for almost 10 years before her untimely death. D. D. D. robbed her of the passion, "the absolute fire and zest", she once had for living.
Her poetry lays bare the incessant pain and ravaging emotional loss that changed her life drastically. This is her story. Her voice speaks to us on paper. As we turn the pages, we, too, "feel the pain, the severity of her tears, the agony of her walk; the pain that never went away."
"So here I am Crying Dying in pain My body My soul BLEEDS Hear my spine cry"

MANAGUA, Nicaragua - Nicaraguans ran into the streets in panic as a 6.1-magnitude earthquake rattled the Central American country on Thursday, damaging dozens of houses and knocking out power to some areas.
At least 23 people were injured by falling ceilings, beams and walls in the town of Nagarote, 31 miles northwest of the capital of Managua, said Guillermo Gonzalez, director of the disaster prevention agency.
Gonzalez said that three of the injured were in "delicate condition." He gave no other details.
More than 100 houses were damaged in Nagarote and nearby communities and another 2 houses were damaged in Managua, he said.
Landslides were blocking two highways south of Managua, he added.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake struck at 5:27 p.m. local time and was centered about 11 miles southeast of the city of Larreynaga. It had a depth of 6.2 miles.
Nicaraguans reported feeling a strong aftershock minutes later that the USGS said was a 5.1-magnitude quake centered 3 miles west of Ciudad Sandino.Panicked people from different parts of the country called the popular radio station Radio Ya to report feeling a strong shaking and say they had lost electricity and potable water.
Authorities suspended classes on Friday in the cities of Leon and Managua.

IT is difficult to square Salisbury MP John Glen's avowed support of fairness (View from the Commons, May 29) with his membership of a party that has systematically attacked the least well off and vulnerable members of society.
Of course, his Tory chums cloak this attack in a spurious claim that they are really being cruel to be kind – that by making life on benefits as miserable as possible they are forcing people out of their selfimposed "benefits dependency".
Their use of language makes it sound as though people in receipt of benefits are like drug addicts, sleeping it off behind drawn curtains as "hardworking people" drag themselves into work.
All that is needed is a dose of cold turkey to shake them out of their torpor.
This topsy-turvy description is designed to conceal just plain cruelty.
As Tom Clark points out in his book Hard Times, unemployment is not driven by social security policy.
What really matters are the "great swings of the macroeconomic cycle".
And in a comment that goes to the heart of this wretched Government's attitude, Clark adds: "Threatening benefit recipients with destitution in order to force them to take the first unsuitable job that may come along is thus not so much being 'cruel to be kind', as is often pretended, but simply being cruel."
As Mary O'Hara writes in her recent book Austerity Bites: A Journey to the Sharp End of Cuts in the UK the "welfare state is not about dependency: it is about opportunity…it is a life raft when times are tough and a springboard to better things."
More serious Tory MPs like Mr Glen attempt a more nuanced approach like his recent articles on food banks and child poverty.
But when, for example, he refers to a "poverty of aspiration, a poverty of supportive positive family relationships or a poverty of parenting and life skills" there is a danger that he conflates symptoms of poverty with its fundamental cause, which is lack of money.
Much negativity swirls around the previous Labour Government's spending, but it is instructive to read a report called Labour's Social Policy Record: Policy, Spending and Outcomes 1997-2010 led by Prof Ruth Lipton.
Although mistakes were made and improvement was not uniform or results unequivocally positive the report states that "the overall picture of progress on the kinds of outcomes that Labour could influence by its policies on public services is very clear".
Meanwhile, and contrary to popular belief, before the Great Recession "social security spending was about the same as it had been for most of the period since the early 1980s" and there is, according to the report "no evidence that increases in spending on health, education and other services caused a crisis in the public finances preceding the global financial crisis and recession of 2007/8."
Compare that record to the cruelty draped in dismal piety that drips from the current administration.
