Our specialist drink driving solicitors have taken the time to answer your most important questions. Please read everything you need to know about your drink driving case below.
Yes. The Magistrates' Court or a Crown Court class anyone convicted of a drink driving offence as a criminal conviction.
A drink driving conviction will appear on your driving record held by DVLA for a period of 11 years from the date of the conviction. This is partly because of the laws on spent convictions. But also because of the rules about repeat offenders. If your convicted of another relevant offence (drink driving, drug driving or failing to provide a specimen), within 10 years of the previous conviction. Therefore, you face much tougher penalties starting with a minimum disqualification of 3 years.
Rules on spent convictions are in the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. When a conviction is "spent" it means that you would not have to declare it when asked the question. "Do you have any criminal convictions?". Because, not all convictions are spent after the same period of time. So, a conviction becomes spent at the end of the longest of:
When A Drink Driving Conviction Becomes Spent
|Eleven years for disqualification for drink driving/drug driving/failing to provide a sample
|Four years from the date of the offence when penalty points are imposed
|Four years from the date of conviction when a driving disqualification (other than for drink/drug related offences) is imposed
|One year after the date of conviction when a fine was imposed
|One year after the end of a community order
|Two years after the end of a custodial sentence of 6 months or less (including licence period)
|Four years after the end of a custodial sentence of over six months to 30 months (including licence period)
|Seven years after the end of a custodial sentence of over 30 months to 48 months
|NEVER for a custodial sentence of more than 48 months
If two or more criteria could apply to your situation. The longest period would apply e.g., drink driving disqualification (eleven years) and a fine (one year). Your conviction becomes spent after eleven years because this is the longest period.
Also, the courts treat fixed penalty notices in the same way as convictions.
The fine for drink driving was capped to a maximum of £5000 up until 2015. However, the courts abolished this cap to hit the wealthier motorists where it hurts! An offender's net income reference calculates the fine. For drink driving, a motorist's net weekly income of 1.5 times could pay for the drink driving fine. As a result, if you earn 1 million net income per year your fine could arguably be £28,846.15!
The police can require you to provide a roadside breath test at the roadside. Consequently, if they form the opinion that you have committed a road traffic offence. And if they form a reasonable suspicion that you are driving under the influence of alcohol. They do not have to have formed a reasonable suspicion of intoxication. Also, it is routine to require a roadside breath test if involved in a road traffic accident. Even if you appear to be stone cold sober.
If you fail, or are unable to do a roadside breath or saliva test. The police will usually arrest you and take you to a local police station or hospital if you have an injury. The police will carry out the procedures for obtaining an evidential alcohol test. Usually a breath alcohol calculation (BAC) if taken to the police station and blood or urine is usually collected if taken to hospital. Also, the police can require a blood or urine sample at a police station. This is less common and you have no right to insist on a blood or urine test in place of a breath test.
The police will require two breath tests from you, on an evidential breath testing instrument (EBTI). Consequently, it's the lower of the two readings that's used as the evidential reading against you in the prosecution through the courts. If there is a large discrepancy between the two readings. Usually more than 15% difference. Then the police are likely to require an alternative sample of blood or urine. This will replace the breath test which they will consider as inaccurate. Also, the police could insist on a blood or urine test if you suffer with respiratory or other illness that would make it impossible for you to provide a sample. Or, if the EBTI is malfunctioning in some way.
If you provide a breath test of 40µg or above, you will face a charge for drink driving. Whilst the legal limit is set at 35µg, the police have a discretion to let you walk free without charge if you blow 39µg. After you have blown 40µg or above you will attend court after bail. Most likely 1 week to 10 days from the charge date when you will have to attend and enter your plea.
The police do not normally interview a suspect arrested for drink driving, unless there is a concern on their part that they have insufficient evidence. For example, they did not see you drive. They may want to interview you if you have claimed to have drunk alcohol AFTER driving. Because this could form the basis of a common factual "hip-flask" defence. They will want to calculate your alcohol levels based on what you tell them you had to drink and when (a back calculation). Consequently, if the numbers do not add up, or even if they do, the police are still likely to charge you. It will be for you to persuade a court of the truthfulness of your account of alcohol consumption.
The police must follow further complex procedures for a blood or urine test if required. You will not face charge until the sample you provide has been analysed as over the limit. Usually, the analysis will take between 4 to 6 weeks. When the result of the sample analysis has been communicated to the police as being over the drink drive limit. You will have to attend the police station for charge and bailed. Hence, if the sample comes back under the limit, you will face no charge for drink driving.
Prior to your court date you can continue to drive unless a bail condition prohibits you from driving. It is extremely rare to impose such a bail condition unless there are medical concerns. Such as a suspicion of a blackout at the wheel. In conclusion, this means that you should be able to continue to drive as normal until pleading guilty or being found guilty following a trial.
We strongly recommend getting in touch with our drink driving solicitors before your first court date. So that we can explain your options. Even if you think the drink driving charge you face is "open and shut," it is highly likely that we will be able to challenge the prosecution.
The safest answer to this is you shouldn't drink anything before driving. However, if you want to know how much would be the legal drink drive limit? You would have to consider a number of factors such as what drink you were consuming and when you were drinking. There are also other factors to consider that relate to your metabolism and the rate of elimination of alcohol from your system. So, deciding on how much to drink before driving, based on units is dangerous. Also, it does not take into account how much you ate, which can massively affect elimination rates. Therefore, it is also risky to assume a safe amount of alcohol without also considering your height, weight, sex. An 8 stone, 5 foot female could be over the limit after drinking a small glass of wine, especially if she had not eaten anything all day.
Yes, you receive a criminal record for any conviction. Even a minor motoring conviction is a criminal record. However, most organisations that ask you to disclose details of criminal convictions such as prospective employers tend to exclude minor motoring matters that carry penalty points.
The minimum penalty for drink driving is a 12 month disqualification and a fine the equivalent to 1.5 weeks' net earnings. You would also have to pay court costs (from £100-£520 depending on at what stage of the conviction) and a victim surcharge. The maximum penalty is a prison sentence of 6 months. However, please note that our drink driving solicitors have NEVER in the history of the firm, had a client sent to prison for a drink driving offence on its own when they pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity. Even when a client was being prosecuted for a repeat offence.**
Clients who contact us often don't appreciate the fact that your alcohol levels will be dependent on many factors. The alcohol content of your drinks is only one of these. Your height, weight and waist measurements along with the times of your drinks. Also, what you had to eat are also crucial factors. If your reading was borderline with the drink drive limit, it is likely the police will offer you a second test of either blood or urine. If the police are charging you with drink driving or you are waiting for test results following a blood or urine test. We strongly recommend you take a look at our page dealing with borderline and hospital cases and get in touch with our Drink Driving Solicitors immediately. It could be life changing free advice from our team of expert drink driving solicitors.
The penalties for drink driving offences can be far reaching. Please take a look at our drink driving penalty calculator for more specific details of the penalty you could be facing for a drink driving conviction. The level of your breath, blood or urine reading will determine your penalty, along with other factors and in particular whether you have a previous conviction for an excess alcohol offence within the last 10 years.
Whilst many people understand that the minimum penalty for drink driving is a 12 month ban (or 3 years ban for a repeat drink driving offender).
If you have already decided that you wish to plead guilty then our Drink Driving Solicitors offer a cost effective fixed fee "damage limitation" service for pleading guilty to drink driving cases. Even though we cannot avoid the mandatory 12 months driving ban for those who plead guilty. We are likely to persuade the court to exercise leniency with the penalty they impose. We often secure driving bans of less than the guidelines suggest by presented thoroughly prepared mitigation arguments.
Pleading guilty is not your only option though so please keep reading. Or better still, get in touch on Freephone 0800 1389 123 to discuss your options free of charge with an expert drink driving solicitor at Geoffrey Miller Solicitors. Customers can contact us day and night by real lawyers who are experts in drink driving offence cases.
If you know that you wish to challenge the prosecution. It is essential that you contact our team of drink driving solicitors at the earliest opportunity.

We will want to set to work straight away on preparing your defence for drink driving. This may involve contacting witnesses, viewing CCTV, requesting inspection facilities of the machine that you gave your reading on. Many of which are horrifically unreliable. Instructing drink driving toxicologist experts; forensic medical examiners… the list goes on. We won't know exactly what work (and cost) will be in your case. Until you make contact with us so please call us now on Freephone 0800 1389 123. Our team of specialist drink driving solicitors will be glad to discuss your options free of charge.
If you defend a drink driving prosecution your allowed to continue to drive and a ban would only affect your driving licence if your convicted. Our statistics show that the chances of you avoiding a ban are extremely high. Because we win the majority of the drink driving cases we defend.
If you have spoken to other drink driving solicitors before us and advised that there is nothing anyone can do to help you with your drink drive offence? This is because the solicitor who gave the advice is not a true expert in drink driving law. With their limited knowledge of drink driving cases, they think there is nothing anybody can do.

Most people who get in touch with our drink driving solicitors are uncertain of their options. They are unaware of any defences that may be available and find it difficult to believe that, it might be possible to defend the drink driving charge. Also, you may find the possibility of having to plead guilty inconceivable, because you simply don't know how you will manage without your driving licence. Therefore, you may find it equally difficult to grasp how it could be possible to defend the drink driving case.

Therefore, we offer a priority investigative option to all clients facing drink drive related offences.

How To Remove Toxic People In Your Life
Unfortunately though, toxic people do not come with clear warning labels and are not as easy to recognise. With this in mind, here are three helpful suggestions for identifying and eliminating toxicity from from our lives.
1/3 Set healthy boundaries
Be aware of emotional boundaries. Our emotions can be used as a compass to guide our behaviour. Feelings such as shame, guilt, anger, or resentment can be "clues" that our boundaries have been crossed and that something is not quite right. It is important to acknowledge and identify our emotions.
One way to do this is by increasing self-understanding. The better we know ourselves, the more we are able to set healthy boundaries and then notice the people in our lives who cross these boundaries. Toxic people have a tendency to violate personal boundaries and not respect our choices or decisions.
2/3 Learn to say no
Some of us have a tendency to put other peoples' needs ahead of our own. While specific reasons for this behaviour can vary, it is often noted as a symptom of low self-esteem and/or poor self image. If this becomes a pattern, consistently taking care of others instead of one's self can lead to strong feelings of resentment and self-hatred.
Learning to say "no" when we want to is a sign of assertiveness and self-confidence. In eliminating toxicity, we have to stop saying yes to people who could be taking advantage of our kindness. Instead, start saying yes to whatever makes us happy and make self-care a priority, such as travel, massage or yoga, healthy dining, and spending quality time with friends and other loved ones.

3/3 Surround yourself with positive people
Negative people can be emotionally draining. Think of our psychic energy like the battery on our mobile phones: we know that certain apps use up more battery power than others. Toxic people deplete a massive and disproportionate amount of our limited battery power. Toxic relationships drain our reserve of energy, leaving us less able to focus on the people who really matter in our lives.
Toxic people are everywhere: in our social lives, our professional lives, and yes, even in our family relationships. No matter where they are, it is important to identify and manage these relationships in healthy ways.
Sometimes, despite our very best efforts at being honest and assertive, some people do not change. It is then that we have to decide to put ourselves first, by eliminating toxicity from our lives.

Franklin Memorial Hospital MRI Magnet Arrives
October 12, 2018
Since April, Franklin Memorial Hospital (FMH) has been in the process of constructing an expansion of its facility to house a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. In October, the magnet of the new technology—with 18 miles of wiring within it and weighing six tons—arrived and was placed in the new space.
The project is expected to be completed and ready for patients to use by the end of December following stringent comprehensive commissioning including calibration with the manufacturer and subsequent performance monitoring to assure the highest quality standards.
According to Kim Turner, FMH director of radiology, cardiology, and pulmonary services, "This is an important hospital investment toward better serving our patients. The scanner's state-of-the-art platform makes it one of the most versatile and powerful systems available to date with feet-first, whole body coverage."
MRI is a noninvasive medical test that utilizes magnetic fields to produce anatomical images of internal body parts to help physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions. The new scanner features advanced wide-bore technology to improve patients' experiences by operating with less noise, decreasing feelings of claustrophobia, and accommodating heavier patients up to 500 pounds.

Muti "too busy abroad" to lead Rome's Teatro dell'Opera9:45, 12th February 2013
Riccardo Muti has denied published reports that he is to take up the position of artistic director with Rome's Teatro dell'Opera.
The reports, which were circulated by the Associated Press, claimed that Muti had signed an agreement with the company after meeting Rome's Mayor Gianni Alemanno.
Speaking last week at a press conference in Rome, where he is currently conducting Rossini's Moïse et Pharaon, the 69-year-old maestro confirmed that Alemanno had tried to woo him, but said:
"In a world where directors suffer continuously from jet lag, to accept the offer and then fail to commit fully to the job would have been immoral," adding that he is "too busy abroad" with his responsibilities as music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
Alemanno echoed this statement in a report by the Italian news agency, Ansa, which quoted him as saying that Muti has only committed to "continue working" with the Teatro dell'Opera.
Muti has not held any full-time positions with opera companies in Italy since his resignation Milan's Teatro alla Scala in 2005, amidst a heated dispute with the company's heavily unionised staff and musicians.

Monitor homework: Have a special place for your child to study; set a regular time for homework; remove distractions; don't expect or demand perfection.
Monitor TV viewing and video game playing: Limit the time that you let your child watch TV; model good TV viewing habits; find books that explore the themes of the TV shows that your child watches.
Encourage your child to use the library: Introduce your child to the library as early as possible; if your child can print his name, it is likely that your library will issue him a library card; let your child know that she must follow the library's rules of behavior.

Here in Australia we love to call those New Zealand bands our own, and the Aussie-based Kiwi band Evermore are no exception. Things have been a bit quiet on the band's front since their last album three years ago; however, now the boys are back with their latest offering Follow the Sun. With their last album giving out some big dance numbers such as the radio hit Hey Boys And Girls, the band this time round have toned it down and stripped it back a bit for this one.
The album has quite a soft opening but picks up in tempo a bit and from then on it is very consistent. Some beautiful harmonies and terrific sounding vocals carry on throughout the entire album along with some good musicianship from the band as a whole. The album has a very happy feel to it and should have most people singing along. The band has stayed true to their sound as each song is easily recognizable as an Evermore hit.
This is a great album leading into the back half of the year with sunshine as it just makes you wanna run around and sing with your friends. Each song has wonderful acoustics and an array of many other instruments throughout the album. This is all in all a pretty complete album from the band that is sure to spawn many radio hits across the FM stations.

Tom, I agree that U-Haul hours are typically monolithic, so that example should be removed from the draft (and replaced with the nice car dealership example). USPS is another story... my local post office has 12 (count them, see attached) different sets of opening hours! Aaron, schema.org/LocalBusiness does already provide branchOf -> Organization, which address the Middleville, OH U-Haul outlet case. You're right that more general organizations, such as a university, could benefit from having a "department" field. We could define "department" on Organization rather than on LocalBusiness, and make the new target type "Department" a subclass of Organization. The problem is that "Department" then wouldn't inherit the openingHours and openingHoursSpecification fields from LocalBusiness.... and per-department opening hours is a driving use case here. Any ideas?

Our little lady just turned five months – HOORAY! I know, I know; I have yet to share her birth story or many pictures on here. Being a mommy of three has certainly had its challenges juggling different school schedules and activities, but we've also had quite the breastfeeding journey. Since she was born, nursing this third time around seemed to go so perfectly. She latched on right away, my milk came right in, and at her first checkup and one and two month checkups she gained perfectly. All of that perfection came to a halt at her four month checkup where we learned so hadn't even gained three pounds since birth… and only 12 ounces in almost three months. We immediately went into "fatten up Lakelyn" mode and introduced some food, supplementing with a bottle of breastmilk every three hours, and I did everything I could to try to boost my milk supply.
Thankfully, we have been successful thus far. You can read more about that journey when I share it tomorrow, but for now I wanted to share with you a recipe for these delicious lactation cookies I whipped up! I wasn't sure I would find it to do much of anything, because I remember trying lactation cookies with Lavery and the ones I made never made a difference, but let me tell you what – – these work! I noticed a difference in my supply on day 1!
Just a few notes about the recipe; first off, brewer's yeast doesn't taste so good, but that is the main ingredient that is used to boost your supply. It definitely has a beer and bitter taste, so when I was making these cookies I decided to include a TON of extras for flavor. Like, when I was adding the raisins, I went for the WHOLE BAG. I know, it might seem overkill, but I actually enjoyed the taste of these cookies and I've heard from friends lactation cookies they made didn't taste so great. With this recipe, you can tell the brewer's yeast is in there, but it's not overpowering and doesn't take away. I felt adding lots of craisins and almonds was better than loading up on extra sugar.
Also – this makes a TON! And you can freeze them! I know lots of nursing mama's, so I'm haring mine, but I'll already be making a second batch this week so I can freeze several. I've been eating one for breakfast and one or two throughout the day as a snack and I've actually been able to let up on the amount of supplements I was taking too!
So.. nursing mamas! Share, pin, and enjoy! Let me know in the comments if you give them a shot and what you think. And I'll be updating this post with links to how I increased my milk supply and our breastfeeding journey when that's published later this weekend!

Never again, will
I believe anything you say so easily
or hear you out for your explanation.
Real trust doesn't need tears for a hug
Everything will have to be numbed down.
Happy now?
Underneath it all, who are you?
You are just a scared bastard.
Killing yourself slowly is not fine with me
Can't handle that?
F*** you then.

Best of
the Twin Cities
At last, the Twin Cities has an alternative to the Roy Wilkins Auditorium—a music venue for artists who draw bigger crowds than our clubs and theaters can accommodate, but who can't fill a sports arena. Cosmetically, the extensive renovations, completed in time for the Super Bowl, are fantastic. The high, arched ceiling and art deco design prove that the Armory, its potential sadly squandered during its years as a mere parking garage, deserves its historic billing. And the sound? Well, "better than the Roy Wilkins" is far too faint praise. With a little fine-tuning it may well become as excellent as any room of its size can boast. Can an armory-turned-garage really become a world-class concert space? Remember, First Avenue used to be a bus station.

Designed and built in the UK the Solsonic Ultrasonic Soldering Iron offers the advantage of flux-less soldering of similar and dissimilar metals and materials in common use as well as previously difficult to solder materials such as aluminium, ceramics, glass and silicon's used in microelectronic applications.
The 40 kHz standard ultrasonic generator is housed in a strong metal case with a carrying handle for ease of portability. The ultrasonic generator is matched to the ultrasonic transducer in the iron handle to ensure optimum performance at all activity levels. The unit automatically maintains the set amplitude under normal changing load conditions.
RS232 connectivity comes as standard on the Solsonic Iron for full remote control of the irons functions such as tip temperature and ultrasonic power levels. The RS232 function is ideal if the Solsonic iron is required to be used in a Cartesian robot or similar remote applications.
The new model of the Solsonic ultrasonic soldering iron comes complete with a newly designed ergonomic, lightweight handle, which ensures that there is a minimum of strain on the operator during the soldering process.
The Solsonic soldering iron incorporates a powerful heater, rated at 60W, and a digital temperature controller which allows the user to adjust the soldering tip temperature and provides control from 50°C up to 400°C ±2°C.
The ultrasonic generator has 9 levels of ultrasonic activity, selected by push buttons, plus a function that allows the soldering iron to be used as a conventional soldering iron if required. The ultrasonic power is applied to the iron as needed by operating the provided footswitch or, alternatively, the power can be turned on and off using the button on the front of the unit.
An ultrasonic transducer is built into the soldering iron handle and to prevent this unit being overheated a continuous use of a cooling air is required. There is a safety system in place to ensure that if the air pressure has dropped and has stopped cooling the transducer the unit automatically turns off to prevent frequency drift and damage to the transducer. The cooling air supply can be provided by a small pump, not supplied, or from a facilities own 0.75-1bar clean air supply.
The iron comes with 3 interchangeable soldering tips, made from a high density hard copper, which have been matched to the ultrasonic generator to provide optimum performance. There are a variety of tips to choose from including various sizes of chisel, cone and point shapes from a range that Solbraze manufacture to suit the customers application.
The Solsonic iron can be used worldwide as the ultrasonic irons power supply input can be switched to be either 110v or 230v depending on the local mains supply using a switch on the rear of the unit.
The Solsonic unit also has a soldering iron rest attached to one side of the case for safely resting the hot iron when not in use
- Minimal surface pre-treatment required.
- No post cleaning of flux residues.
- No voids in joints due to ultrasonic activity.
- No wicking of solder into joints and wires.
- Stronger non-porous bonds as solder is forced into the surface layer of the material.
- The unit operates worldwide due to dual voltage selection.
- Joining anodised or plain aluminium, stainless steel and other materials such as niobium and ceramics.
- Suitable for surface lining glass.
- Used for filling blowholes in aluminium and magnesium castings.

Chase Potter started his music career just shy of five years old on the violin. The historic instrument had a profound effect on Potter at an early age, facilitating his inherent musicality into something tangible. Just after a year of study, Potter began performing publicly, and it wasn't long after when he began absorbing other instruments. The drums came first, then guitar; the saxophone family followed. He took on the bass in his teenage years, followed by the mandolin. While violin remained his sharpest tool, he showed an exceptional ability to assimilate any instrument he could get his hands on. As a high school student in West Jefferson, OH, Potter's musical prowess would allow him to travel the world through the prestigious Columbus Youth Jazz Orchestra, touring across Peru with Wynton Marsalis sideman Wessell "Warmdaddy" Anderson. Subsequently, the culmination of Potter's prodigal talent and professionalism beyond his years would lead to a distinction unlike any other: a full ride to the Berklee College of Music.
Potter migrated to Boston, MA in 2011 to major in Violin Performance at the esteemed Berklee College. It was during these collegiate years where he would earn some of his first major career accomplishments, including select performances with Grammy award-winning singer/songwriter Lalah Hathaway, and critically acclaimed Scottish indie rock band Belle & Sebastian. Potter's contributions were not restricted to any one genre, and encompassed high caliber artists from all walks of the sonic spectrum, such as guitar phenom Julian Lage and mandolin virtuoso Mike Marshall. Needless to say, Potter completed his degree with distinction.
Upon relocating to New York City in 2016, Potter dove head first into the city's vibrant music scene as a multi-instrumentalist. His musical opportunities were ample - perhaps most notably as a featured violin soloist with Wynton Marsalis at the Lincoln Center - but New York proved prosperous in other ways. Potter found himself in front of the camera on several major occasions, performing violin on The Tonight Show with Machine Gun Kelly and Camila Cabello for their joint hit "Bad Things", as well as a fictional guitar player on the season finale of HBO's The Deuce.
In tandem with his sterling resume as a sideman, Potter has a created original music for the majority of his music career. Performing as a solo act or with a full band on occasion, Potter's original music encompasses a progressive musicality within accessible songs that resonate with fans of power pop, indie rock, and experimental music. Additionally, he contributed in the writing and production of Chameleon Culture's debut album The Universe Is A New Year's Day Parade on violin, guitar, and vocals, as well as providing strings for projects from Cale Hawkins, Louis Futon, and Duckwrth.
Chase Potter's mission has always remained simple and steadfast: be true and vigilant through the power of music.
Chase endorses and plays NS electric violins.

I love to say these words. I say them with pride.
Inevitably someone then asks, "What do you teach?"
This is such a difficult question to answer. When I say, "I am a Library Teacher" or "Teacher Librarian" I feel compelled to then get very specific about the things I actually teach.
What do I teach? I teach information literacy skills. I teach Website evaluation. I teach location and access in a library. I teach nonfiction conventions. I teach about authors and illustrators. Yikes! That's dry and sterile.
Maybe I should say, "I am a trained and skilled professional who provides the environment, opportunities and tools for learning."
SO...then what do I teach?
I hope I teach a love of learning.
I hope I inspire a love of reading.
I hope I teach children to love books and all the information they contain and from which they construct knowledge. Books create bridges to new information, new understanding, and new ideas. If the Internet is the information super highway, then books are the necessary bridges that connect all the meaning and knowledge found there. Book readers practice skills essential to life long learning -- critical reading - thinking, evaluation, and assessment.
So, yes. I am a teacher. Meet me at the corner of reader and book. We'll be learning something new there.

text: Blurring the lines http://en.espnf1.com/germany/motorsport/story/85123.html ----- Formula One's regulations quite clearly state that a circuit's limits are defined by the two white lines that run around its perimeter. It seemed odd, therefore, that there was even a debate about whether or not Sebastian Vettel should have been penalised for passing Jenson Button on the penultimate lap of the German Grand Prix. The Red Bull drove with all four wheels off the circuit and in doing so gained an advantage. It was a breach of Article 20.2 of the sporting regulations and the precedent for such a breach is a drive-through penalty (or 20-second post-race penalty in lieu of that). End of story. But it's a shame that the stewards had to tinker with the results after the chequered flag. Nobody wants to see a podium trophy change hands after the ceremony and it encourages conspiracy theories that taint the image and enjoyment of the sport. It's not the stewards' fault - they're just doing their jobs - the problem is that circuits no longer punish the drivers so the officials have to take up the slack. The introduction of more and more run-off areas in the past decade has created opportunities for drivers to take liberties and as a result the stewards have had to take a more active role. Hockenheim, and the changes it has seen since 2002, typifies this shift. Part of the spirit of the old circuit is still intact in the stadium section and, as Michael Schumacher found out in free practice, the thin ribbon of asphalt still has the ability to bite back. But much of the circuit is now nestled between expansive run-off areas and that encourages drivers to push beyond the limit. For most of the second half of the race Fernando Alonso had at least two wheels off the track in the final corner - nothing wrong with that - but on more than one occasion all four wheels strayed beyond. Presumably a driver of Alonso's standard wouldn't be consistently putting the car out there if there wasn't an advantage to be gained, but rather than facing the consequences when he pushed a little too far he was able to continue regardless. The risk / reward equation was permanently skewed towards reward and that's not good. The industry-standard response is to put a thin strip of artificial grass beyond the exit kerb, but in the dry, and with the current levels of downforce, the drivers barely notice. Real grass has more serious consequences and is used to good effect at Silverstone. A thin strip has been left at corners such as Aintree, Becketts and Chapel before the safety net of the tarmac run-off area kicks in. In the interests of safety this isn't possible everywhere, but it should be considered more often than not. Another effective solution can be found on the inside of turn eight at the Circuit de Catalunya. Over recent years the corner almost became non-existent as drivers attempted to cut more of the circuit away as they exited turn seven, but in 2011 the problem was solved by a small section of 'sausage kerb'. Now the drivers risk damaging the bottom of the car if they don't remain between the white lines and they have had to alter their entry to turn seven accordingly. Again, such measures are not possible everywhere, but it's another example of what can be done to retain the challenge of the circuit while ensuring it remains safe. The turn six hairpin at Hockenheim needs to be given the same kind of attention to detail, and at the very least a strip of artificial grass should be laid on the outside. Tracks like Abu Dhabi are probably beyond saving, but it should be a major consideration in the future design of any circuit. The more punishing the circuits are, the less intervention will be needed from the stewards and the more emphasis there will be on driving talent. End of story. Laurence Edmondson is an assistant editor on ESPNF1 © ESPN EMEA Ltd. ----- I agree.

Eyebrow grooming is very much a personal preference for a great number of individuals. Some prefer an all-natural look, while others regularly get them shaped by a waxer or threader. However, there are also those that do not trust their eyebrows with anyone and leave shaping to themselves. Although one can go in with tweezers to eliminate any stray hairs and accentuate their natural shape, it can be aggravating, painful, and time consuming. For individuals wanting to speed up their brow grooming routine with a super easy to use, precise, and painless product, Parissa has exactly what you need.
Parissa Brow Shaper consists of mini wax strips that are perfect to place above and below your eyebrows for shaping arches. They also remove both thick and tiny hairs quickly and effectively. One strip is plenty for each area and does not require multiple applications. It is simple, does not require hot wax, and can be done in a hurry. Since the strips are so small, they are perfect for traveling when you need a touch up. Your eyebrow grooming routine will forever improve by incorporating these strips into your life.

How is Dysport different from Botox?
Dysport is an alternative to Botox that can be used to relax overactive muscles that create moderate to severe wrinkles and frown lines. It's chemical name is abobotulinum toxin type A. Dysport is an injection to temporarily improve the look of wrinkles without changing the look of your whole face. The untreated facial muscles will still work normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions in untreated areas. Dysport injections work faster, last longer than Botox but share many of the same benefits.
What results can I expect with Dysport?
As we age skin loses it's elasticity and wrinkles deepen into hard lines. These creases in the skin can make you appear worried or angry when you are not. Dysport temporarily blocks the nerve impulses to the muscles that flex and crease your skin, but without an artificial frozen look. Dysport results in a natural and smooth appearance allowing your beauty to shine.
How long has Dysport been available?
Dysport was FDA approved in the U.S. in July 2009. It has been available in other countries for several years prior to FDA approval and has an excellent safety profile which is similar to that of Botox.
What areas can be treated with Dysport?
Dysport can be used to relax the muscles between the eyebrows (the glabella), the upper forehead (the frontalis), and the Crow's feet – the area at the edges of the eyes. It can also be used to stop excessive sweating – a condition known as hyperhydrosis.
How long does it take for the Dysport to work?
Dysport begins to work as soon as 2-4 days after injection, and has its full effect in about 1 week. In comparison, Botox typically takes up to 2 weeks for full effect.
Is a Dysport treatment painful?
The injections are done using a very small needle. You may feel a slight prick, but often there is little to no discomfort at some injection sites. Any discomfort is over very quickly. Side effects are similar to Botox, with headache being the most commonly reported. If you experience a headache after Dysport injections, take whatever you would normally use for a headache and it should go away. Interestingly, many patients with chronic, frequent headaches notice a decrease in headaches after Dysport treatments.
Are there any patients who shouldn't use Dysport?
Patients who have serious neuromuscular disorders such as myasthenia gravis, Lou Gehrig's disease, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome could be at increased risk for complications. It is also not recommended for women who are pregnant or nursing.

Parent Education Workshop Series
Workshop Title: Teaching Your Children How to Read (for parents)
Training Facilitators: Dr Lim Boon Hock HonFRSAS & Dr Chia Kok Hwee HonFRSAS
Synopsis: This is an interactive activity-based workshop that will introduce the cognitive processing model of reading in layman's terms to parents so that they will know what reading as a dynamic process involves and what happens when the process breaks down. The facilitators will help parents to identify their child's reading profile, interest and perception. In addition, parents will be taught how to identify the reading problems encountered by their children through use of an informal reading inventory. More importantly, they will also learn to identify the different error types in reading so that they will learn how to help their children to manage/cope with these difficulties.
- An introduction to the cognitive processing model of reading
Reading knowledge domains: (1) letter knowledge; (2) word knowledge; (3) topic knowledge; and (4) background knowledge & prior experience
Reading components: (1) letter awareness; (2) letter-name/sound correspondence; (3) word recognition and identification; (4) meaningful decoding of words in phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs and/or texts; and (5) encoding words to make meaningful sense.
Using an informal reading inventory (e.g., Abecederian Reading Inventory) to profile and understand the child's competence and performance in reading.
Being and becoming a mindful reader: (1) awareness; (2) attention; and (3) remembering.
Identification of reading difficulties through error analysis basing on morpheme-class and phoneme-class errors: (1) substitution, (2) invention, (3) insertion, (4) addition, (5) omission, (6) reversal.
Activities for parents to teach and help their children manage their reading difficulties: (1) basic phonics skills and phonological rules; (2) high frequency and sight word lists; (3) how-to reading strategies: read to, read with and read by; (4) choosing the appropriate reading scheme for their children; and (5) fun reading activities to raise their children's level of mindfulness in reading.

Student Loan Provision Will Help Recruit Legal Aid Lawyers
Washington, DC-The student loan repayment program included in the 2008 Higher Education Opportunity Act will significantly improve the ability of legal aid offices to recruit and retain high-quality lawyers, the president of the Legal Services Corporation said today.
"Legal aid lawyers are among the lowest-paid members of the legal profession, and the financial pressures that stem from student loan debt are often the primary reason they leave," Helaine M. Barnett, president of LSC, said. "Our experience with an LSC pilot program found that loan repayments make it more likely that talented young lawyers will apply for and accept jobs in our programs, and that participating attorneys will stay with their LSC programs. If we keep talented young lawyers, this helps ensure our clients receive the legal assistance they need."
Under the legislation signed by President Bush on Aug. 14, the Secretary of Education may offer student loan repayments of up to $6,000 a year to civil legal assistance attorneys who agree to a minimum three-year commitment to their work. Total loan repayments cannot exceed $40,000, according to the law. The loan repayment provision in the bill was championed by Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa, who began his career as a legal aid attorney, and Rep. George Miller of California. Sens. Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts, Michael B. Enzi of Wyoming and Barbara A. Mikulski of Maryland were key proponents of the bill.
The legislation authorizes the student loan repayment program, which Barnett said she hopes will become a permanent replacement for the LSC pilot program, which enters its fourth year on Oct. 1. "I thank Senators Harkin and Mikulski and others for their great achievement in easing the burden of law school debt on the nation's young lawyers who are committed to bring equal access to justice to low-income Americans," Barnett said.
In a report provided the LSC Board of Directors at their Aug. 1 meeting, 77 percent of attorneys who received LSC loan repayment assistance said the pilot program was a pivotal factor in their decision to work for an LSC grantee.
That and other findings were drawn from an evaluation of the pilot's second year, from Oct. 1, 2006 through Sept. 30, 2007. Seventy attorneys participated in the loan repayment program during that period, and each received a forgivable loan of $5,000. Participants in the pilot must make a commitment to work at their LSC-funded program or repay the loan.
Eighty percent of LSC program executive directors who participated in the pilot said it significantly improved their ability to hire new staff, and 94 percent said the pilot significantly enhanced their ability to keep staff, according to the report.
The report on 24 LSC-funded programs that participated in the pilot found that attorneys receiving loan repayments left their programs at far lower rates than attorneys with similar levels of professional experience who were not receiving loan repayments. During 2006-2007, 18 percent of participating attorneys voluntarily left their programs, compared to 29 percent of their colleagues who were not participating in the pilot, the report showed.
In a survey conducted for the report, more than half of the attorneys in the pilot said they had a law school educational loan debt of more than $75,000 when they began working for their legal aid program. Nearly one-half said they expected to make loan repayments on their educational debt for more than 21 years.
Legal Services Corporation (LSC) is an independent nonprofit established by Congress in 1974 to provide financial support for civil legal aid to low-income Americans. The Corporation currently provides funding to 132 independent nonprofit legal aid programs in every state, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories.

Well I am finally almost absorbed into Medieval life. Last night I stayed up till 4 am with the dancers being silly and talking and chilling and then I still wake up at 9 am because my plastic tent becomes an oven. Even though at night it was in the fifties.
There are several hard core dancers that I meet once a year and it's nice to see how their life has progressed.
Still way too much free time. I've been sewing.
I miss a real shower, I've been hosing myself down in a tiny bed sheet enclosure which really is more about a perception of modesty then actual privacy.

5 Social Business Intelligence Myths Holding Businesses Back
With significant advancements in both technology and methodology surrounding the ability to filter, classify and structure the daily flood of open social commentary at a scale never before possible, several one-time truths related to social business intelligence (SBI) have now evolved into myths. For many organizations, these myths are serving as gating factors to achieving the actionable, strategic SBI to enhance their decision-making and drive overall strategy and innovation.Let's dispel some of these major SBI myths.
- Myth 1: Basic "buzz" on our business is the best we can get from social media.For years, companies have relied on basic "buzz," or the general sentiment consumers have on a business, brand or product. Essentially, this answers the simple question as to whether consumers like something or not. With questionable accuracy and a lack of related actionable insight related to "buzz," many companies have thrown up their hands assuming that this "thumbs up / thumbs down" gauge is the best they can do when it comes to SBI. Many of these same companies are realizing that understanding whether they would win a popularity contest does not strategically aid their organizations to effectively make decisions, solve problems, set strategy or drive innovation.Today, advanced streaming big data processing solutions are able to filter, classify, structure and report on the continual flood of open social commentary across the Internet in real-time. For example, ListenLogic's (listenlogic.com) streaming big data platform processes over one billion operations per second, delivering real-time answers to incredibly complex questions across massive amounts of streaming open social commentary. This is revolutionizing the valuable insight businesses immediately gain from social media and online channels, allowing companies to receive and leverage genuine, unbiased, timely consumer intelligence on their markets, products, services and competitors through the unsolicited opinions of millions of consumers. Today it's no longer about the simplistic and misleading concept of "buzz" or "sentiment," rather it's about deep understanding and actionable insight to facilitate better decision-making and enhanced strategy. To gain true value out of an SBI solution leading corporations are going way beyond "buzz." And with advanced technology it's now possible.
- Myth 2: SBI is a "nice to have" for our business.This is actually an understandable stance for companies who believe in the first myth above; that extracting simple "buzz" is the best their organization can hope for from open social commentary. However, given the technology advancements that now deliver deep, real-time, actionable insight on valuable aspects like consumer personas and decision points, path-to-purchase, competitive shifts and influencer analysis, this is now a dangerous myth resulting in some businesses missing a huge strategic competitive advantage; an advantage that in many cases their competitors are already adopting.Pioneering businesses are exploiting this advantage to understand their consumers, markets, products, services and competitors better than ever before. They realize that superficially "monitoring" a snippet or sample of the conversation rather than deeply surveying the entire market discussion places their organization at a major disadvantage. Companies investing in this strategic insight are able to leverage these market truths to take strategic or tactical action in order to gain tremendous advantages in growing and protecting their business, immediately transforming advanced SBI into a necessity rather than a "nice to have."
- Myth 3: Boolean keyword search is the only solution available.Although they can be highly specific in the results they provide, Boolean keyword search technology is very limiting in what it delivers, typically providing only 10 percent of the relevant results out there and 90 percent noise (irrelevant results or spam). Yes, if specific keywords like "Chevrolet," "Sonic" and "service" are used in a search they will find the owner who posts "Having a service issue with my Chevrolet Sonic." However, most consumers don't speak and certainly don't post, message, chat or tweet this way. Plus, if the keyword "Sonic" is run alone it will result in a massive amount of irrelevant content on everything from fast food to video games to broadband services.What this approach won't find is the owner who posts "Heard the grinding again this AM for the third time." In this example there is no specific reference to a car or a make or model or "service," rather it provides a concept. Our brains understand that this is referring to a car and that the poster is having a service issue and is probably at best annoyed and at worst irate. This is parallel processing, which the human brain is capable of. Technology is also capable of this with the use of advanced conceptual models, which recognize how people communicate beyond a select set of keywords. This allows for, as an example, a company to identify irate owners of their products without specifically declaring themselves "irate owners" of their products. This modeling has made Boolean keywords obsolete for accurately discovering conversation concepts from consumers within the complex, unstructured social media universe.
- Myth 4: Our company has to hire a team of experts to achieve true SBI.With a myriad of self-service, keyword tools available, many companies are realizing that you in fact "get what you pay for" with these first generation solutions. They are also coming to understand that although the cost of the tool may be relatively cheap, the subsequent personnel and quality costs skyrocket financially, particularly when they realize that this approach delivers 90 percent noise and 10 percent signal, missing 90 percent of the relevant signal they're in search of. What's worse are the potential reputational and financial costs related to regularly missing key insights.Companies are also realizing that the cost and quality benefits of partnering with an advanced SBI provider with advanced technology and expertise quickly delivers strong ROI related to the level of real-time actionable intelligence they receive to set strategy, make decisions and adjust tactics across their enterprise. Leveraging an advanced Social Listening Intelligence Center like the one pictured below, staffed by expert analysts provides an extension to Marketing, Brand, Sales, Product, Corporate Communication, Risk, Legal and Compliance Teams within the organization.
- Analysts like these deliver the qualitative "art" of advanced social intelligence which supplements the quantitative "science" of the technology. Both the art and science combined deliver the speed and accuracy businesses require of actionable social business intelligence to gain deep, real-time insight to take immediate action on emerging threats and opportunities.
- Myth 5: The costs to achieve true SBI is out of our company's reach.Yes, there are big data platforms that cost in the tens of millions of dollars and require millions more in personnel investment to program and operate. Unfortunately, in most cases, even with this sort of massive investment, these sorts of systems will not give an organization the ability to handle streaming big social data on a real-time basis since they are largely designed to query static data. So, going down this path is largely pointless for the organization looking for real-time, actionable, advanced SBI.Major corporations have achieved advanced social intelligence at a cost of pennies per billion operations per second – without the need to make massive hardware, software or personnel investments like general-purpose data systems require. In fact, leading companies across the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, technology, media and consumer packaged good segments are using this technology today at cost that is typically lower than that of an analyst.
Given the major competitive advantages true advanced social intelligence delivers, pioneering companies who have overcome these myths are gaining deeper understanding of their consumers, markets, products and competitors to strategically impact their acquisition and retention marketing, promotions, customer service, risk management and product development. All in all they are leveraging a major first-mover competitive advantage which is helping them own markets, drive growth and even protect their operations against risks and threats.
These organizations are now setting strategies built on market truths extracted from millions of consumers allowing them to make decisions and understand market movements better than ever before.

I have been working on this idea of developing "construction systems" for the assembly of works using the same parts. The work, currently on display, is a recent incarnation of this concept. Throughout the year, I make castings of joints, which have been molded from a pattern. I also cut pieces of conduit and manufacture other parts. The parts are proportioned in such a way as to allow for a certain degree of flexibility in design during the installation process. Working this way affords me the possibility of indicating volume without developing a mass of material. The referent for this process is contemporary manufacturing and architectural engineering. The question of how the most stability and volume can be attained with the least amount of material, is often posited. Orchestrations in line are usually the answer. The vector typically bears much of the load in any engineering scenario. Line is (arguably) also the most efficient means of expression available to the artist, during the process of drawing.
The process of construction is critical to my own creative practice. When learning scales or chords in music, one builds on previous knowledge. The same is true in programming or any other field. Every facet of society seems dependent on some kind of construction, be it a faulty one or a functioning one.

"Attainment of '5-2-1-0' Obesity Recommendations in Preschool-Aged Children"
Preschoolers don't eat enough healthy foods or get enough exercise, according to a new study by the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.
Researchers studied nearly 400 preschoolers over the course of one 24-hour period at school and at home to find out if the children were meeting what's known as the 5-2-1-0 daily guidelines, which recommend children eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables, watch less than two hours of screen time, participate in one hour of physical activity, and consume no sugar-sweetened drinks.
Only one child actually met those guidelines. Less than 1 percent met the physical activity guidelines, while only 17 percent consumed at least five servings of fruit and vegetables. Half of the students did not drink sugar-sweetened beverages, while 81 percent had less than two hours of screen time a day.
The study was published online in August in the journal Preventative Medicine Reports.
