An edge of the Mississippi floodplain in high summer, Minnesota 2012
The thoughts that follow here stem from the convergence of two circumstances – the first is the Government response to the flooding on the Somerset Levels; the second my starting to work on a large grant-funded academic project. These thoughts form part of my own personal and on-going concern with the increasing unreal, and thus profoundly counter-productive, nature of our political and intellectual orthodoxies, and so with trying to find ways to fundamentally re-frame our thinking about the world.
The first circumstance is the way in which the odious Eric Pickles – currently the British Government's Communities Secretary – lost no time in publicly criticising the Environment Agency for its lack of expertise in relation to flooding, and in making it very clear that he believed its chairman Lord Smith should resign. Pickles has been oscillated between naked aggression (when he thinks there is political capital to be made from miss-representing other people's difficulties or misfortune), and telling blatant lies (when even the Prime Minister thinks he's gone too far). Indicative as Pickles' behaviour is in terms of a viciousness and contempt endemic in the higher reaches of Government, it also masks something even more disturbing.
I was looking at the arguments against the Government's proffered solution to Somerset's flooding – namely dredging as a technical 'quick fix' ( http://www.sciencemediacentre.org/expert-reaction-to-somerset-flooding/ ) today. With Pickles' and the Government's delays and oscillations still on my mind I came across the following, written by Ola Holmstrom, UK Head of Water at the consultancy firm WSP. She writes:
"Flood risk management should be based less on focusing on rivers and rather the catchment as a whole. I was present at last week's Somerset Water Management Partnership and there was much discussion over the 'catchment-based approach'. However, politically this is seen as inaction and that the dredge would solve immediate issues and answer the communities' cries [italics mine]. However, given the huge cost of 'the big dredge' there must be quantitative proof that this will benefit both the upstream and downstream communities. Catchment based schemes would be significantly cheaper and more sustainable than dredging; they must be given a chance even if the political pressure is on, for the good of the environment and communities throughout Somerset in the future".
"We need to consider why the rivers are silting up in the first place and to devise ways of slowing down the movement of water both overland and under the ground and finally accept that we will need to flood some areas to save others. Unfortunately there simply is not enough space to protect everything. A National Trust experiment near Minehead has involved farmers allowing their land to be flooded once river levels rise to reduce the amount of water passing downstream. Now, to ask farmers to deliberately set aside land to flood is both controversial and unfair without Government subsidies to cover loss of earnings. However, in areas such as the Levels where there is so much water, is it a debate to be had"?
"Surely, there is now a need to seriously consider allowing land that hasn't previously flooded to act as flood storage areas for the benefit of the wider community. In this setting dredging may be appropriate to ensure that water reaches its intended locations but not as a tool for passing flows downstream. Dredging will virtually never be the silver bullet, and the economic and ecological cost coupled with its short-term nature make it unpalatable to many".
"Unfortunately with increasing urbanization and climate change the question of flood risk management in Somerset is not going to go away. Rising sea levels may eventually mean that draining water from the system naturally becomes almost impossible and so someone will need to make some tough decisions in the future. For the benefit of those currently flooded and those whose livelihood depends on the land, it would be best if this happens sooner, rather than later."
All of which makes a great deal of sense. What is deeply disturbing, however, is that part of what she writes might be paraphrased as follows: 'politicians will say and do whatever they think will appeal to their party's voters in the short term. In doing so they duck the hard but vital middle-to-long-term decisions they are elected to address and, in consequence, the situation in Somerset will continue to get worse'. Considered generically, this situation is pretty much replicated in variation globally when it comes to facing difficult socio-ecological problems and, thanks to the virtual disappearance of fora essential to a genuine working democracy – independent and critical journalism and the practice of critical education, for example – is likely to get worse.
But why is our Higher Education system increasingly failing to draw attention to this situation – in short, to educate active citizens able and willing to ask the difficult questions requiring to get our political representatives to take the root causes of our socio-ecological crisis seriously? I'm afraid at least part of the answer lies not with Government but with academics themselves. Those substantively caught up in research are now for the most part complicit – whether willingly or otherwise is obviously a critical point here – in its deepening malaise. They choose or are coerced into riding a similar gravy train to the politicians (that is one involving winning grants rather than elections). In consequence their language increasingly reflects a disturbing 'forgetting' of the basic responsibilities and practices of critical education.
Can I justify this claim? You must make up your own mind. Below I've taken a core statement from the research bid referred to above and, after each section, added thoughts in both italics and square brackets.
The project bid claims that, over a period of three years, it will address: "issues central to the Community, Culture, Environments and Sustainability agenda by deploying multi-partner, arts and humanities-centred interdisciplinary research (AHIR) in 3 intersecting ways".
[To write this presumes two things – that there is an agreed understanding of the meaning of the terms 'community', 'culture', 'environments' and 'sustainability'; and that the 'agenda' linking them is both shared and explicit. Neither presumption is sustainable within the academy, much less within any geographic region of Britain. This statement can only be read, then, as tacitly signalling conformity to whatever official agendas are currently being pursued by those in authority using these 'power words'. So what, then, is actually meant by the phrase: 'multi-partner"? Is this perhaps intended to signal engagement with knowledges and understandings held locally within specific communities? Or simply a clutch of universities? The answer I suspect, at least at the level of academic realpolitik, lies in the phrase 'arts and humanities-centred interdisciplinary research (AHIR)'. In short, the agenda – preset according to the assumptions of those in power – will be framed by specialists whose professional knowledge is embedded in disciplinary discourses that are, for the most part, inaccessible to the specific local communities to which the bid then goes on to refer. Specialists whose continuing employment is increasingly predicated on coming up with the types of bids (and thus with the findings – since these now have to be identified in advance of the research itself being conducted) that conform to the expectations of the status quo. (Or, if they do not, are subject to the same attitude of aggressive contempt so perfectly exemplified by Eric Pickles)].
1, "by investigating how local communities are embedded in the hydrosphere (the totality of interconnected water forms, cycles, systems, issues, conflicts), and using AHIR to explore and develop community resilience in eco-social terms. The project addresses multiple, interrelated water issues (floods, drought, water quality, biodiversity, ground water, catchment management) considered within community contexts. Interconnected water issues are some of the most challenging in the UK and beyond, particularly in the context of climate change".
[While it may be possible to intuit what, theoretically speaking, the term 'hydrosphere' refers to – "the totality of interconnected water forms, cycles, systems, issues, conflicts", etc. – to actually evoke this in terms accessible to a lay community geographically located is something no arts and humanities-centred 'inter-disciplinary' team can realistically do over a three year period. If that were possible in such a time frame there would be no current socio-ecological crisis because the population at large would by now have grasped and acted on its causes. Any such evocation requires, at the very least, setting aside the automatic assumption of explanatory primacy embedded in specialist academic discourse (whether explicitly disciplinary or otherwise). This is necessary so that academics learn to 'hear' – without intellectual prejudgement – the voices of other, non-professional or emergent, constituencies and their stories. Not as a 'standing-reserve' for academic research but as authoritative narratives in their own right. Yet it is on intellectual prejudgement that all research bids are predicated and submitted. In this way the fundamental framings or lenses upon which our entire epistemology and pedagogy – and the notion of professionalism these underwrite – depend remain unchallenged and unaltered. It is thus deeply ironic that the bid should then go on to refer to just such "lenses"].
2, "through these lenses, interrogating a series of questions about communities, citizenship, rights and conflicts. Interconnecting water issues offer powerful exemplars of connections within communities (e.g. shared flood risk, shared water assets); and connections between human (and non-human) communities (e.g. upstream-downstream communities in catchments, supply and waste systems). Frequently these connections manifest themselves in terms of conflict, disconnect, fragmentation and relative advantage/disadvantage. There is a need to foster greater interconnected social and ecological resilience through enhanced understandings of the eco-social production of communities, envisioned as multiple, interleaving formations of practice which combine topographical (place) and topological (network) spatialities".
[Leaving aside the question: 'in what sense can non-human beings be regarded as any kind of citizen?', there is a sad irony in academics identifying "connections" as manifesting themselves in terms of: "conflict, disconnect, fragmentation and relative advantage/disadvantage". One that flows from lack of any acknowledgement that their own institutional and professional presuppositions help perpetuate this situation. While it is manifestly the case that "there is a need to foster greater interconnected social and ecological resilience through enhanced understandings", surely the first and most appropriate response to that very real need is for research professionals to undertake a deep-seated critical review of their own intellectual presuppositions and discursive habits? To do so would, however, precisely risk undermining their own privileged status and intellectual authority, and thus would potentially damage their ability to make future financial contributes to their institutions (for which research is primarily an issue of income generation). So research-oriented academics are now in a position – by choice or otherwise – analogous to that of politicians who, to serve their own self-interest, simply duck the hard questions so as to benefit from the existing system. Academics (like most professional people in our culture) are thus willingly or unwillingly complicit in ensuring that our collective socio-ecological situation worsens – quite possibly irretrievably so.That academics still feel able to write of "leading" in this situation – see below – is highly indicative. Until academics learn to work imaginatively (and where necessary against the grain of their own professional self-interest) so as to undertake a genuine re-integration of their thinking, feeling and physical ecologies, and put this relationality into practice (not simply in terms of the 'hydrosphere' but of all ecological, social and intra-subjective spheres of relationship) – in short lead by example and in practice – 'study' through research in this context will remain a shorthand term for perpetuating the status quo. In this context, and without that fundamental existential commitment to embodying a lived ecological praxis, the claims that follow below are, sadly, largely meaningless (however well intentioned); little more than a string of 'power words' and name-dropping].
3, "by using innovative AHIR co-working procedures and showing how they can lead in reshaping eco-social formations in community contexts, by enabling participating groups and individuals to reflect creatively on how they imagine and practise their relationships with the water environment and with their various neighbours (human/non-human). We will test and reflect upon how AHIR can study questions of cultural value, community identity and practices of place; unearth and reflect on local history and heritage; and frame critical, layered, narratives of these. Participatory creative arts such as performance, storytelling, visual art, creative social design, film and other media will be used as vehicles for engaging communities and reflecting existing understandings, and for engineering new affective relations and possibilities (e.g. mobile performances moving along river catchments to highlight upstream-downstream connectivities across socio-economic boundaries). We will develop exemplary practices for co-productive working between communities, academics and governance actors; using AHIR to address the challenges posed by environmental change; and the development of sustainable eco-social practices. This will be achieved through a matrix of themed project elements across four research areas. Building on previous research (CCs and related) (section 3) and discussions held in the development workshops (section 3.6) the project develops innovative methods for enabling community-located eco-social stewardship that can feed into discourses around cultural services developed in the UK National Ecosystem Assessment (NEA); the LWEC agenda and other national water governance / research frameworks (e.g. the Environment Agency's (EA) emerging 'river stewardship' agenda; Flood and Water Management Act 2010)".
My views above may appear unduly critical of a system and a situation in which I was inevitably deeply enmeshed as Director of PLaCE. I am certainly not suggesting that anyone working in an English university today – I cant speak for the rest of the UK – can escape difficult and sometimes unsavoury compromises and negotiations. It is possible, however, to so engage with eyes open and applying the same critical understanding academics expect of their students. Speaking personally, I have done all I can to learn from and think critically about my own experience of such academic compromise and complicity and have always tried, as I hope the assorted texts and projects on this web site make clear, to maintain and pass on to my students a praxis grounded in genuinely critical educational values.

In this feature we take a look at some standout participants that we have come across during our Start 2 SMILE project. The first of these participants is Thomas Ferry.
About Thomas.
Thomas and twin brother Jack were born 16 weeks early, weighing just 3lb between them, back in 2001. Now 16, Thomas from Sunderland took up the sport of Boccia. For those who don't know Boccia is a sport designed for athletes with severe impairments and is a target based sport played indoors with soft leather balls. Thomas only took up the sport in 2015 and regularly attends the Vipers Boccia Academy in Newcastle as part of his training. In January last year Thomas attended our Multi-Sport sessions in Sunderland as part of our Start 2 Smile project with our coach Gareth. During these session Thomas took part in a variety of different sports such as, Cricket, Tennis, Basketball, Athletics and Seated Volleyball as well as a number of Boccia drills to help him improve his skills.
Road to Nationals
Thomas competed in the Heathcoat Cup Newcastle tournament, held at Gateshead Leisure Centre, in March 2017. This was his very first tournament where he competed against other BC2s from the region. He won 3 games and lost one meaning he finished the tournament with a Gold medal.
Winning this tournament meant that he qualified for the National Heathcoat Cup Finals in April, at the University of Hertfordshire Sports Village, a national competition where he would compete against other BC2s from across the country. Thomas surprised us all again winning gold again in his second ever competition beating some of the best BC2s in the country along the way.
This latest win meant that Thomas qualified for Boccia England (BE) Cup Finals at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield in May. Thomas was placed in a tough pool with some of the best players in the country such as Reshad Saraj and Zoe Robinson. Although he didn't win any of his matches, he performed extremely well and gave every player a run for their money and he should be extremely proud of his efforts.
Well Done Thomas
All of us at SMILE Through Sport are extremely proud of Thomas. To get to a National Final in three short months with little in the way of tournament experience is an amazing achievement and he should be extremely proud of his achievements.

Johnathon Schaech and Julie Solomon: Married! Expecting!by Free Britney at .
Johnathon Schaech and Julie Solomon are married!
And expecting their first child any day now, to boot!
"It was just a small group of family and friends on the beach at sunset," the Ray Donovan star says of ceremony in Ocean City, Md., which took place in July.
The wedding took place after he finished shooting Hercules 3D for months in Bulgaria. The actor, a Maryland native, says the baby boy will be named Camden.
Subtle link to his hometown team, the Baltimore Orioles?
"The funniest thing about it is that Julie came up with Camden," he tells People. "She had no idea my hometown team played at Camden Yards."
But, he adds, "We have my team pennant hanging in the baby room."
Congratulations to the happy couple and soon-to-be family!

First of all I have to say that green tea has been used as a medicine in Asia but in particular in China. It can lower blood pressure and riduce the risk of cancer. It contains antioxidans thanks to the fact that this kind of tea is not processed.
Green tea can help you with your weight loss because it increases the metabolism. Obviously you need to associate it with a balanced diet and a good workout. Even 40 minutes of fast walking can be a good workout if you are a beginner.
As I said before green tea contains antioxidants and that's why it can help you with your skin problems from wrinkles to acne and also can reduce sun damage.
It gives you a relaxing and tranquilizing effect so it is your best friend if you suffer from depression.
It can reduce glucose level so green tea can help you if you are affected from diabetes.
There are a lot of other benefits but i have just summerized the most important. If you like to drink tea, try the green one, you won't regret it!

In Khloe Kardashian's eyes, Scott Disick had a lot to prove.
For years, the two butted heads over Disick's relationship with her older sister Kourtney (as documented on multiple episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians and Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami). But in a new interview with Aventura Magazine, 27-year-old Khloe admits that former bad boy Disick, 28, has since redeemed himself.
"Scott is so much better now," Khloe admits. "He has worked hard and fights his demons. Plus, he is a great dad and good to Kourtney. I never thought I would be saying something like this, even a year ago. But I give credit where credit is due."
Already parents to son Mason, 2, Disick and Kourtney, 33, are currently expecting their second child, and Khloe has faith that Disick will continue to be a devoted father and boyfriend.
"I think he's nervous to have a little girl because I think guys know what they were like when they were younger, and they don't want their daughters to go through that," she laughed to Us Weekly at the opening of Disick's New York City restaurant RYU Monday. "So I'm sure he's going to be a little protective. I think he's an amazing dad and I'm sure Mason will be protective, too."
Disick confirmed that he "may be more protective" with his little girl, but added that it's hard to "predict how it will be."
"There aren't any manuals, unfortunately," Disick told Us. "They should write more manuals on how to raise kids because it's tough, you know? I'm excited though, of course, and I can't wait."

A U.K. government-sponsored urban planning strategy for Mysore and Madurai promises to significantly cut the carbon footprint of the two growing cities.
Upcoming neighbourhoods in Mysore, for instance, can enjoy around 36 per cent energy benefits and 13 per cent lower commuting time, among others, by adopting certain low-carbon techniques, it was said at a workshop on low-cost master-planning organised by the British High Commission on Thursday.
U.K. Minister of State at the Department of Energy and Climate Change Gregory Barker released the techniques, which were put together as "Draft source book" for the Mysore study by the U.K. firm WS Atkins International and the All India Institute for Local Self-Governments. Atkins International says its results show that a city using this approach can be 33 per cent more carbon efficient with 30 per cent less land expansion, all at 45 per cent lower investment. Mr. Barker said that expanding Indian cities can benefit from including low carbon or environmentally sustainable strategies in their long-term growth plans.
The upcoming Ballahalli Layout on the outskirts of Mysore was chosen for the pilot project, said Jitesh Brahmkshatriya, Head of Urban Design and Planning at WS Atkins (India) P Ltd.
The pilot initiated in 2011 is among 36 low carbon projects funded by the U.K. Foreign and Commonwealth Office under a Prosperity Fund that supports U.K. companies.
An integrated design, mid-rises of three or four storeys; a mix of residential, commercial properties and parks, public transport woven with safe, green walking streets with bus stops 800 m apart, solar power and good waste management — these are some of the ingredients of the low carbon plan, he said.
Mysore Urban Development Authority Commissioner C.G. Bethsurmath said that the authority was finalising a 2031 master plan and it may consider weaving in some of the low carbon elements into its plan.

Soil can be like a refrigerator with only sour milk, a jar of pickles and some wilted lettuce leaves on its shelves. Before soil can really provide nutrition, it must be restocked with decayed organic matter, minerals and microbes. Amending the region's problematic soil is the single most important step you can take to garden successfully in Dallas, whether you plant perennial flowers, landscape shrubs or vegetables.
"It's quite simple. Anybody can do it," says Baron Ablon, owner of Soil Building Systems. For 40 years, the North Dallas company has been composing and selling soil mixes, amendments and finished compost.
The easiest way to restock depleted soil is to work in a balanced soil mix, complete with the basics needed for plant growth, he says. The mixes come in several varieties for use with different types of existing soil and different types of plants.
The soil mixes alone will produce good results, Ablon says, but not necessarily the best results. Native soils are different, even within the same county, he says. Some may not drain well while others drain too well, leaching out essential nutrients. Others may be too alkaline for the acid-loving plants you want to grow.
To know exactly what you need to add for what you intend to grow, homeowners should order a reliable soil test, says Phil Nauta, author of Building Soils Naturally (Acres USA, $19.95).
That usually involves sending a soil sample to a testing lab. Texas A&M University has one of the most widely used in the state. Texas Plant & Soil Lab in the Rio Grande Valley, another well-used option, was founded in 1938.
The test will tell you whether the soil is clay or sandy loam, how much organic matter it contains, whether it's acidic or alkaline and, in advanced tests, what minerals it may lack. It also may detect leftover chemicals or heavy metals.
Nauta also recommends examining plants for hints of deficiencies. Look for insects and signs of disease. Plants grown in good soil usually are healthier and attract fewer destructive bugs. Soil deficiencies also leave telltale signs on leaves and stems. As an example, a nitrogen deficiency can lead to pale yellow-green leaves.
Much of Dallas-area soil contains clay that packs down, keeping air from soil roots. Clay also can keep plants from accessing necessary minerals.
To figure this all out, you might want help from an expert. Master gardeners and horticulturists at many nurseries can guide you.
At top nurseries, staffers will ask what you intend to grow. Azaleas, gardenias and hydrangeas, for instance, like acidic soil and will need amendments to counteract our alkaline soil. Lavender will need excellent drainage. Based on your plans, a nursery can guide you to specific minerals or other materials to enrich and improve the soil. A laboratory test, however, eliminates much of the guesswork.
Texas greensand and expanded shale often are recommended for their mineral value and to improve drainage. A comprehensive mineral mix, such as Minerals Plus, often available at retailers that stock organic products, includes lava sand, granite sand, basalt, rock phosphate, humate and montmorillonite, a soil lightener, says Josh Addison, manager of Redenta's Garden in East Dallas.
Ingredients that hold moisture in the soil are hot. Bags blare that the soil will retain more moisture, which means less watering. They include products such as zeolite, which acts like tiny sponges, Addison says, and should be used with care.
"In my personal opinion, you can definitely overdo it," Addison says. "People come to us and plants have died because the soil held on to too much water."
The foundation, Ablon and Addison say, is good compost. Compost will loosen the soil and begin adding in trace minerals. It also adds necessary organic material, which nourishes beneficial microbes, another key ingredient to soil health and flourishing plants.
Even after beefing up the soil, it will need some fertilizer, Nauta says in an email interview. As they grow, plants pull out the soil's nutrients and they must be replenished. Plants in healthy soil, however, will need much less added fertilizer than those grown in poor soil and will produce better.
Nauta recommends dry molasses or products made from kelp.
If this sounds expensive, it can be.
A 4-by-8-foot raised bed that's 8 inches deep requires more than 21 cubic feet of soil. That can require 10 or more bags of soil mix, compost and other additives at $5 or more per bag. Different components may be a little less or twice as much.
Be wary of low-priced amendments. They may not contain high-quality ingredients or may be poorly prepared. For instance, materials in compost may not be fully decomposed, Ablon warns.
If you are planning major garden work and need to buy a lot of soil mix or compost, approach it the same way you would any other home improvement project, Ablon says. Find a supplier through friends or a landscaper and get references.
"The only way I know that's absolute is to ask for locations" where the material has been used.
Is it worth the money and trouble?
"Absolutely," Ablon says. "Soil is the most critical thing in your garden."
Soil tests
Soil testing is the basis of deciding what amendments your soil needs. Soil-testing labs can be found online. Basic tests run as little as $10 per sample, with extensive testing costing more than $200.
Two labs often used include Texas A&M University (soiltesting.tamu.edu) and Texas Plant & Soil Lab (texasplantandsoillab.com).

On another subject. I did some tests using zero-length tags*1 and it seems like it is the answer to many of the problems the parser is required to solve that it does not solve yet.
From what I understood, the current parser is required to (silently or not*2) fix some mis-nested tags. Example:

What's impossible is to make a parser that guarantees that the page will stay intact and that fixes any mistakes made by the user.

Maybe the BBCode parser will take an option that specifies if a user entered the BBCode or not (for example, it's going through a converter).

Creative Ways to Make Raised Beds Out of Junk
When you're building a raised bed garden, you don't have to limit yourself to expensive lumber purchased from a hardware store. Plenty of used and salvaged materials can serve as the walls of your raised bed -- as long as they're safe for growing food inside them if they're for a vegetable garden. Start looking around and you're likely to find plenty of materials that will work.
With its heavy weight, concrete can get really expensive to dispose of at landfills that charge by the pound. That's why you may find piles of damaged concrete blocks or chunks of a removed sidewalk lying around in your neighbors' yards. Blocks and chunks can easily be set side by side to create the perimeter of your raised garden bed. If you want to give them a smoother, more permanent look, use a trowel to smooth quick-set mortar in between each chunk.
Long lengths of wood in any shape work for building a simple raised bed. Landscaping and tree services in your area can be potential sources of lodge-pole style lengths of wood. Tree services are often removing branches from over roofs, and then turning the branches into wood chips at the site. If you offer to pick them up, that tree service may be happy to give them to you for free. Also look for other reclaimed straight or round lumber at rebuilding centers. Drill holes through each end of the poles and then drive a piece of rebar through the holes to hold the poles in place around your garden.
Old metal or fiberglass siding can also serve as the walls of your raised bed garden. Look around during the summer, when people are often doing outside projects on their houses, and will need to get rid of old building materials. Corrugated fiberglass, often used for patio roofing, may also work for this purpose. You'll have to build a frame onto which the siding or roofing panels can rest -- but you can get that wood framing material from a rebuilding center as well.
When you start looking, you're likely to find lots of materials that could serve your purpose. Not everything you find is going to be OK for growing vegetables or other edible plants. Lead paint was used in building construction for decades -- and it's something to avoid like the plague. If you find wood panels or doors that you're thinking of using, have the paint tested. Also be on the lookout for pressure-treated wood or wood covered with creosote, both of which could be harmful to your plants and you. When in doubt, don't use it.

We're all human and we all know what we should do, but how often do we actually do the right thing?
This is an offer that you shouldn't refuse and I racked my brains hard to think of excuses people would give for not doing the right thing and this is what I came up with (just click on the heading for further details)…
This offer is too good to be true
OK, let's be reasonable. I can't guarantee your business will make thousands. But I can give you a better chance than most of your competitors.
And I want you to sign up as a client which is why I'm prepared to give you a Risk-free 90 day trial. I know that changing accountants is a difficult decision to make so I want to make it easy for you. Try our services for 90 days without letting your old accountant know – If at the end of the 90 days, you're not completely satisfied you can walk away and not pay a penny – that's my 100%, iron-clad guarantee to you!!
I don't think I'll get my money back if I decide not to go ahead
We're Chartered Accountants and Chartered Tax Advisors. So we have to do the honour our guarantee.
So you've got peace of mind that we're as good as our word.
My accountant will be upset if I switch
Your accountant is a business person just like you. They know that there will be some clients who need a different set of services than they can offer. So they won't be as upset as you think when you change accountants!
I'm completely happy with my accountant
If you're completely happy with your accountant then I wouldn't want you to change – good accountants are hard to come by!
But please look carefully at what we offer and ask yourself whether your old accountant can offer you the same – online, simple bookkeeping software (saving you hours in bookkeeping and letting you keep on top of the finances), access to the Business Growth System (giving dozens of low-cost, proven marketing strategies) as well as online webinars and support.
If they don't, then maybe it's time to make the change.
I'm too busy to think about this right now
I totally understand how you feel. A lot of people are under pressure and when you're trying to run a business it can often seem like there aren't enough hours in the day.
But I would ask you to do one thing – review your to do list and identify which actions are urgent and which are important. I'd like you to focus on those actions which are important rather than urgent.
And I can't think of anything more important than giving your business the best chance of success.
I have a bookkeeper to do all this
That's great. They can use our online bookkeeping system which means you get up to date visibility of your accounts.
You still get access to the Business Growth System as well as being able to attend the monthly webinars – which will be recorded so you can watch them at a time convenient to you!
Or you could look at switching to our 'done for you' service – which is quite often better value than using another bookkeeper.
Changing bookkeeping systems is really difficult
We can't promise it will be completely painless changing how you do your bookkeeping - and it will depend how confident you are with online systems and how good you are with your bookkeeping currently.
But we will promise to make sure you're using the simplest bookkeeping system for your business needs. And we will also give you simple step by step instructions showing you how to use the system.
And if at the end of your 90 day trial you decide it's not for you - you just walk away and we'll refund every penny you've spent with us.
There are cheaper online providers I could choose
We won't promise to be the cheapest provider you find but we will promise to be the best value. That's why we give you a full 90 days money back guarantee.
So at any time during your first 90 days with us you don't believe we're providing the value we promised, then you can walk away and we'll refund every penny you've spent with us - no questions, no hassles.
That's our promise to you...
I love what you're offering but I can't afford your fees
We know we're not the cheapest accountant you can find - we don't aim to be! But we truly believe we are the best value you'll find anywhere.
And with our 'World Class 90 Day Guarantee', if you don't believe we've delivered true value then you can walk away and we'll refund every penny you've paid.
And remember, implementing just one idea from our Business Growth System could pay for our fees many times over.
Still worried you can't afford it? Give us a call and we'll see how we can help you take the first step to success.
My accountant is my brother-in-law
OK - you've got us!
If your accountant is a family member then we can't compete with that!
However, when you look at everything else we offer, you may well decide that blood isn't thicker than water!
Hopefully you're now ready to give it a go!

Get Ready for Your Best Garden in 2016
January is the official start of the new gardening season, with the arrival of colorful seed catalogs in the mail and long, cold nights spent indoors reading them. What better way to relieve the winter blahs than to start planning for your best vegetable garden or landscape!
The North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service is ready to help you plan and get excited for the gardening season with classes, Internet resources and even a long-running statewide television show called "Almanac Gardener." This longest-running series on UNC-TV has been a trusted source of information for gardening and landscaping since 1983.
Hosted by the N.C. Extension's Mike Gray, this 30-minute program tackles questions and answers from viewers and features panels of N.C. Cooperative Extension agents and specialists. Gardening information provided during the program is founded in research, which is the basis for all Extension advice.
"Almanac Gardener" airs during the busy gardening season of April through August on Saturday at noon and is rebroadcast at 10:30 a.m. Sundays on UNC-TV.
No need to wait until April to chase away cabin fever with thoughts of ripe tomatoes or azaleas. Viewers can "binge-watch" previous episodes on the computer on a wide variety of gardening topics by visiting http://www.unctv.org/content/gardener. Gardening resources are also a feature of the Almanac Gardener UNC-TV webpage.
If your seed catalog collection brings up more questions than answers, visit the North Carolina Extension webpage at https://www.ces.ncsu.edu. You can explore many articles and videos posted by Extension professionals, find your local office and even ask your question by clicking "Ask An Expert " on the bottom of the webpage.
Your question will be routed to a "Question Wrangler" for a quick and expert answer. Your local extension agents often will receive the question if you mention your county in the request. Of course, you can always call our local office in Richmond County at 910-997-8255 for information.
If you would prefer learning more about starting a garden by attending a class, sign up to attend a free gardening workshop on Jan. 22 at the Richmond County Extension office at http://growrichmond.eventbrite.com.
This workshop begins at 8:30 a.m. and lasts until 12:30 p.m., with speakers available to help gardeners interested in starting a school, church or community garden. Topics include growing for food banks, recruiting volunteers, finding resources and using pollinators in the garden. The group will also tour Hitchcock Creek Community Garden during the workshop.
Whether gardening is a new or old hobby, a way to make extra income or a passion, the North Carolina Extension is ready to help you prepare for your best gardening season ever in 2016! Contact us at email@example.com, http://Richmond.ces.ncsu.edu or 910-997-8255 for more information or to subscribe to our monthly Richmond County Extension newsletter.

The components that make a successful law firm are most often the same even though there exist different law firms. Success comes with no magic as a law firm has to work extra hard while strategizing to make it. The the world is made up of so many law firms which specialize in different things but in the long run, they are supposed to work towards success, and the strategies are supposed to be linked in a way.
A business strategy is the first thing that a law firm needs to deal with. A marketing strategy topped up with the initial plans of the law firm then you are to the road to success. Your clients will focus much on the service you provide that is why it has to be on-point. Following the strategy to its details you are on the right path in as much as success is in question. This alone is not enough to make you successful anyway.
It is now time to ensure that your clients are put the front of the business. To be a successful law firm you have to dig deep into your service to ensure that clients are always contented with whatever it is you are offering them. There is no successful law firm that had no protocols when it comes to the way they handled their clients. Sales, marketing, pricing, delivery among others are supposed to be covered in the contract. Another necessary thing to do is a regular client survey. The review will let you know about the demands that the client will have even if they change with time. An excellent thing to add in this case could be a portal where every client can get to reach information whenever they are posted.
Another important thing that most successful law firms do to stay at the top is to ensure that the technology they use is always up-to-date. Most of the firms that invest in technology are still bound to go far in the business industry. Make sure that when technology is in question the IT and IT security are considered in details as it is a good thing in terms of making a law firm successful. For a company to grow it is essential to have the best that technology can ever offer which will make work more comfortable for the employees thus leading the law firm in question to success. To be successful in the law industry there is a need to address the issue of technology even though it is just all about having the right technology at all times.
Last but not least, it is important to get recognition from your local area. The best way to attract the people in your local area to your law firm is by engaging in activities that involve them.

Project X time again and we've foregone some of the performance for this one to try out a few of the techier ideas. I will be doing a couple of av sets, one based around youtube lo fi stuff using the freeware flash based FLXER vj software, and also something a bit slicker originally inspired by the club scene in the Twin Peaks film.
Things of note will be the Object X guys applying rocket science to installation art – I jest not, the fellows range from research experiment technicians at Birmingham uni to aerospace designers to Shoreditch science teachers… and they've got some ingenious proximity based/footswitchin/interactive sofa sound/light/motion structures all over the place, so you really can 'watch your step'.
And there's a live linkup from Oz with our very own reductive pianist, Rich Batsford streaming live over video from Adelaide University.
and there's a whole program of music to fuse with this , from punk to funk to electronica and opera…
details are all here
With a disturbing, lurching assault on the senses, Project X is an intelligent and unique show destabilising the established role of the "spectator" in performance theatre and drawing you into an impressively eclectic and complex mix of art forms. – Birmingham Post
Having been asked to talk about what I'm doing and where I'm going at Birmingham Institute Art & Design in March i thought about exactly the three areas i want to explore in terms of the 360 thang.

I am back in Göteborg (Gothenburg) as Visiting Professor in the Unit for Human and Economic Geography at the University of Gothenburg. Each time I visit Sweden for a prolonged period, I try to do something systematic to improve, or at least regain, my limited Swedish. On this visit I opted for an intensive course. It was hard work; I haven't thought about subordinate clauses for more than forty years, and learning vocab is much harder for me than it was then. Many people express surprise at this use of my time, since English is the second language of operation of Swedish academic life. All my colleagues here have to publish in English in order to establish an international reputation, and they speak and write English to a very high level. I don't anticipate that I will ever be able to have an academic conversation in Swedish.
So why would I bother?
Is it a silly luxury, especially as a lot of it won't stick when I return home? There are a number of reasons why I bother, but I suppose there are two main ones. First, to me it seems only polite, if you have a reasonably long-term relationship with another country, to make an effort to speak and understand the language. Second, language is such an important dimension of culture that even an introductory engagement with language can enhance cross-cultural insights and understanding.
Take the example of weeds. The Swedish word for weed is ogräs, literally 'not a grass', the o prefix being used to turn words into their opposites or negatives (e.g. hederlig = honest, ohederlig = dishonest). How can this be, I wonder, as many weeds are grasses? (Jenny Atchison and I have been making a particular study of gamba grass, a Weed of National Significance in Australia. That peculiar Australian concept, Weeds of National Significance, causes great hilarity among Swedish colleagues.)
Well, one colleague explains, 'weeds are nature' in Sweden. They are seen as plants growing where people don't want them, for example in a garden or in a crop, but they are understood to be part of nature. For this reason weeds can't, by definition, be found in protected areas (apart from the exception below). You can have invasive species, for example species that are poisonous or harmful in some way, but they are not necessarily weeds.
There is arguably much more acceptance here in Sweden than in Australia that weeds and people have a long shared history. Agricultural history is embedded within the national culture, partly because many Swedes still have family links to agriculture within a generation or two back.
There is even a nature reserve specifically to preserve weeds. It is called Dalby Västermark, situated 5 km east of Lund. Pesticides and artificial fertilizers are not used, making this a refuge of, as it says on the webpage, en naturlig åkerogräsflora (a natural field-weed flora), in an area of Sweden's best arable land, so called 10+ quality. This is an example of det biologiska kulturarvet (biological cultural heritage), a concept promoted in recent years to include the biological remains of former land-use meadows, pollards and grazed forest. Joachim Regnéll and I wrote about these themes here.
So, Sweden has interesting connections to this recent report about the need to conserve the weedy relatives of many of our agricultural staples in the face of climate change. Arguments that seem somewhat strange in the Australian context make more sense in parts of the world with a long agricultural history (and vice versa of course).
As it happens, I did not learn about ogräs in Swedish class, but in conversations (in English) with academic colleagues. I think my point about the relevance of learning Swedish stands, but perhaps the jury is still out on whether this is the best way to spend time.
(Thanks to Robin Biddulph, Marie Stenseke and Joachim Regnéll for discussions and translations.)

The Department of Defense announced nine new defense contracts on Thursday worth $1.31 billion. Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT) didn't win the biggest of these contracts. That honor went to Boeing. But Lockheed did win the second-largest award -- a $200.7 million contract modification to a contract to build GPS III space vehicles 05 and 06.
The contract being modified was originally awarded to Lockheed Martin on May 15, 2008, being then described as "a new contract for the first increment, of the next generation of Global Positioning System (GPS Base IIIA) ... a satellite-based radio navigation system that serves military and civil users worldwide... [using] existing capabilities [to] introduce a new L1C civil signal, increase earth coverage M-Code power for authorized military users, provide a graceful growth path to achieve full capabilities development document threshold requirements, and continue support for the Nuclear Detonation Detection System mission."
This original contract was valued in excess of $1.46 billion, and has subsequently been modified -- and had dollars added to its value. The modification announced today covers work that should be completed by Dec. 14, 2017.

To make use of a character device driver , the associated character device file (usually located under /dev) is to be used .Using the following command gives you the list of all character device files in /dev
ls -l /dev | grep "^c"
For any user-level application to access the underlying hardware , it should make use of the device driver corresponding to the device . But communication with the device driver can only be made by performing file operations on the device file corresponding to the device (usually located under /dev).
Therefore for any user-level application to get services out of a hardware , it should perform file operations on the corresponding device files .
The character device driver and the its corresponding device file are connected togetby V.F.S(Virtual File system) . The functions implemented inside the driver will perform her the low-level file access into the underlying hardware .
From Linux kernel 2.6 onwards there can exist multiple drivers under same MAJOR.NO
The connection of the device file with the driver is done by means of its <MAJOR.NO,MINOR.NO> pair .This connection is established by using the following to API's in the driver .These calls registers a <MAJOR,MINOR> pair for the driver. Later any device file created by assigning the same major , minor number will be linked to the corresponding driver .
int register_chrdev_region(dev_t first,unsigned int no_of_minors,char *name);
This call associates the driver with the <Major,MINOR> pair stored in the variable first.The variable no_of_minors specifies the no.of.minor numbers to be registered .
Sometimes the Major number requested may be already allocated and may not be free.So its better to dynamically allocate the MAJOR number and let kernel search a free MAJOR number and assign the same .The following function is used to achieve the purpose .
int alloc_chrdev_region(dev_t *first,unsigned int first_minor,unsigned int no_of_minors,char *name);
When any file operations are performed on a device file , it is passed onto the driver my V.F.S .
To achieve this purpose the corresponding functions to be invoked by the driver(functions written inside the driver code) when different file operations* performed on the device file have to be registered with the V.F.S.
This registration is first done by initializing the structure file_operations and then handing the structure
to V.F.S by using the function cdev_add which is declared under <linux/cdev.h>

UNION—Recently selected as the 2008 Youth of the Year for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Union County, Amirah Beeks, 18, of Elizabeth, is a true example of extraordinary youth. A member of the Elizabeth Boys & Girls Club, Beeks will receive a $1,000 scholarship and will go on to compete against other Boys & Girls Club members for the New Jersey Youth of the Year title and an additional $20,000 scholarship. The 2008 Union County Youth of the Year Nominees also included Arianna Vinardell from Roselle Park Club; Yasmin Freeman and Mansa El-Amin from Union Club and Ce'Rae Tyler from Plainfield.
The Youth of the Year program, which is administered by Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) and has been nationally sponsored by the Reader's Digest Foundation since 1947, recognizes outstanding contributions to a member's family, school, community and Boys & Girls Club, as well as personal challenges and obstacles overcome.
"The Reader's Digest Foundation has been the proud sponsor of the Youth of the Year program for 60 years," said Susan Fraysse Russ, executive director, Reader's Digest Foundation. "We are thrilled that we can honor amazing teens like Amirah for their dedication and hard work."
Dedicated, passionate and sporting the courage of a lion, Beeks is a role model for her peers. A senior at Elizabeth High School Upper Academy, where she has achieved a 3.8 GPA, she has shown consistent effort in keeping her life on a positive track while working to contribute to the household income, and doing community service that includes volunteering at food banks, soup kitchens and "Adopting a Grandparent."
She hopes to attend Hampton University and major in child psychology. She is a two year member of the Elizabeth Boys & Girls Club where she has been vice president of the Keystone Club, a chartered small group leadership development club for young people ages 14-18.
"My deepest fear is the maelstrom of violence, drugs, and gangs would rapidly increase in the local school systems leaving my hometown with no chance of survival. But I will not allow this to happen," said Beeks. "As the 2008 Youth of the Year for Union County, I look forward to igniting the fire that burns deep in my heart which represents change in my community."
"Amirah's passion for making a change in her community and selflessly helping others is inspiring while her commitment to her education, supporting her family, community and Club is exemplary, She is a very special young lady," said Russell Triolo, chief executive officer, Boys & Girls Clubs of Union County.

Come See My Dead Person is one of those bands people have constantly tried to get me into over the years, but the time never seemed right. Well, the release of their new self-titled album should be a good enough place to begin, I thought, and I'm very glad I did.
The sound is a mix of pretty much every single genre that has a set of nuts. Country, blues, jazz, klezmer, zydeco, psychobilly, rock, even a few little moments of Rasputina-esque goth, rock and ragtime weave themselves in and out of the 14-song funeral procession.
No, not a funeral procession. That's inaccurate. It's more like a wake, a proper Irish one where there's plenty of joking, good stories, as well as maudlin moments of mourning and probably even a good dive across the coffin. Alcohol, too, but I probably didn't really need to say that.
Things really get cooking with "John Doe" early in the experience. The track is a toe-tapping, high-paced road song that would sound perfect in an episode of True Blood as some vamper left a trail of passengers with ill-luck bloody and dead behind her. If there is another song that manages to be a rockin' ode to a corpse experiencing its own decomposition then there can't be many.
That playful morbid streak is probably the most defining aspect of Come See My Dead Person. It's certainly the parts that are going to garner the most comparisons to The Nekromantix and, more accurately, to The Creepshow. CSMDP, though, manages a subtlety in their approach that is less overtly ghoulish and closer to the darker moments of honky-tonk.
Take "Kidney in a Jar." If you're not really paying attention you might be able to hear it just as a dancehall tune, but there are deep-cutting turns of phrase that keep it well outside the Social Distortion "Ball and Chain" tone. Not to mention I still want to know why someone's granddaddy's left kidney was in a pickle jar in the first place.
It's not all upbeat, though, and I think it's in the Southern gothic moments that the album really rises to Heaven from a rotting corpse. Songs like "The Rose" are the kind of songs that change or ruin lives. A more hopeless set of lyrics can't be imagined than "But we're all gonna burn so it's our choice how we live our lives." The song is the musical equivalent of the silence in a car on the way home from a miscarriage. It just fucking aches all over.
Honestly, it's an almost impossible track to follow-up, but man, "End of All" pulls it off so close as to not matter. The Irish reel is at first near obscene in its liveliness after "The Rose," but, as seems to be the band's true gift, it pulls holiness out of a hat in the midst of the bloody aftermath.
What defines Come See My Dead Person best is how baldly it looks at death in its songs. She's real, personal, a little cruelly whimsical, sometimes tragic, but also something of a friend. We all hear the beating of her wings in the end, probably over the sound of our friends here tuning up.

A NORTH Belfast outreach centre which helps people suffering from addictions is celebrating the tenth anniversary of opening on the Antrim Road.
Rosemount House first opened its doors at Rosemount Gardens in April 1988 before relocating to its current location in May 2007.
The building now boasts 20 en-suite bedrooms, a games room, large communal areas, counselling facilities and a spacious back garden.
Last Tuesday afternoon, Rosemount House welcomed past and present residents and members of the local community, including Turas Youth Project, for lunch, music, speeches and some special awards, organised by the Big Lottery Fund.
Charlie McGarry, founder and current manager of Rosemount House said he was delighted to celebrate with everyone who played a part over ten years.
"It is important to mark the work that we do here which I believe has helped to save many lives," he explained.
"We provide a quiet and comfortable environment for people suffering from a range of addiction and mental health issues for them to turn their lives around for the better.
"Watching the progress many guys have made to get back to their families and reintegrated into the community is a bonus. It gives me great pride when this happens. I could not go through everyone who I have to thank for making Rosemount House the place it is today.
"Rosemount House has been a blessing for us. This event is a thank you for everyone who has played any part at all in the ten years of Rosemount House on the Antrim Road."
SDLP Councillor Paul McCusker, who attended the celebrations praised the work of Rosemount House.
"It was a great afternoon in Rosemount House celebrating 10 years. I have had the pleasure of being involved with Rosemount House for a number of years and see the amazing work Charlie and his staff do each day.
"For many of those struggling with addiction and homelessness Rosemount House shines the light and helps change the lives of many of those most vulnerable. This is a very important service in North Belfast. A place that offers hope in those darkest moments," added Cllr McCusker.
Plans are now in place for a similar recovery and rehabilitation centre, like Rosemount House, for women suffering with addictions.
