Reader proposes new form of city government
Published 12:00 am Sunday, June 8, 2014
Though a resident of Madison I have a particular fondness for Vicksburg. I was born and raised there, leaving after graduation from high school to live in several states and one foreign country. Returning to Mississippi after sixty-three years I feel blessed to be here and equally blessed to be living so close to the beautiful and charming city of Vicksburg, which my wife and I visit often. I want to commend the current city administration for their efforts aimed at growing the city in quality of living and appearance. Yet I wonder if the city would be better served with a commission of ward councils and a mayor rather than the two alderman and mayor system now in existence. It is one of very few cities in the state so governed. It seems to me this would constitute a greater representation of the various constituencies of the city.

Ed Miliband details plans to boost house building
Councils will be allowed to expand beyond their current boundaries to provide new housing if Labour is elected in 2015, Ed Miliband has said.
In a speech in Stevenage, the Labour leader criticised "stick in the mud councils" that block development plans by neighbouring authorities.
And he said developers "hoarding" land that has planning permission for new homes must either "use or lose it".
Labour plans to build 200,000 homes a year in England by 2020.
At their party conference in September, Labour said the housing shortage was "central" to what they call Britain's "cost of living crisis".
'Use or lose'
Speaking on Monday, Mr Miliband said that the profits of the country's four biggest housing developers - Barratt, Berkeley, Persimmon and Taylor Wimpey - were "going through the roof".
"They have soared 557% since this government took office - even though homes have been built at their slowest rate witnessed in peacetime for almost a century.
"But there are large amounts of land - enough to build more than a million homes - earmarked for houses which have not been built."
House builders and other landowners sitting on land that is ready for development will face a clear choice, Mr Miliband said.
"The next Labour government will give councils powers to charge fees or, if necessary, purchase such land, so that developers have an incentive to do what they went into business to do.
"We will back homebuilders. But we will tell land hoarders with sites that have planning permission that they must use it or lose it."
Under Labour's proposals, the Planning Inspectorate would scrutinise different local housing plans, and arbitrate between councils to allocate housing construction based on need.
Mr Miliband suggested the Labour-controlled Stevenage Borough Council was being prevented from ambitious house building plans because of the objections of neighbouring North Hertfordshire Council.
Stevenage, as well as Oxford, Luton and York, have signed up to become the first "right to grow" local authorities under Labour plans, with an immediate potential to build 40,000 new homes.
Mr Miliband said: "Of course it is right that local communities have a say about where housing goes. But councils cannot be allowed to frustrate continually the efforts of others councils to get homes built.
"So the next Labour government will unblock this planning process and unlock the potential to build tens of thousands of new homes where they are needed."
Former chairman of the BBC Trust, Sir Michael Lyons, is to head a commission looking at the "right to grow scheme" and "use it or lose it powers".
Mr Miliband also accused the government of focusing on schemes, such as Help to Buy, which drive up demand, but not doing enough to improve the supply of new housing.
"The result is a broken market where it now takes ordinary families over 20 years to save enough for a deposit and those renting privately are paying as much as half their income on rent," he said.
But the government said Labour had failed to build anywhere near enough homes during its 13 years in power and rates of house building were now at their highest for seven years.
"Top-down regional strategies and eco-towns failed hard-working families who aspired to own their own home, and built nothing but resentment," housing minister Kris Hopkins said.
He said £2bn had been allocated to more than 350 councils, under the New Homes bonus scheme, to encourage local authorities to bring empty properties back into use and to support conversions.

Confirmation of Behavioral Impact and/or Health Outcome
Rates: A Prospective Evaluation
Assume a rigorous evaluation of a worksite disease management program for employees with Type 2 (T2) diabetes was conducted among 300+ E group employees and 300+ C group employees. It measured physical activity, weight control, diabetes, and absenteeism for the last 12 months, and blood glucose levels (HbA1C) at baseline. At a 12-month follow-up, the evaluation documented that the E group intervention produced “an average weight loss of 10 pounds from baseline observations, a 12% reduction in the worker absenteeism rate, and confirmed a HbA1C (glucosylated hemoglobin) T2 diabetes control rate of 80%, and a 15% reduction in the average Hb1AC values.” The C group intervention produced a “4 pound weight gain from a baseline observation, a small increase in the absenteeism rate of 4%, and an Hb1AC diabetes control rate of 65%.” If a program decides to conduct a CEA of the E versus C group intervention, it needs to confirm which of the differences were statistically significant, to document the actual costs to deliver the E group intervention method #1 and C group method #2, and compare weight loss, absenteeism, HbA1C/Type 2 diabetes rates, and control effectiveness rates. These analyses should produce a cost-effective ratio (CER), and cost per unit of effect for each impact rate.
From a cost-benefit analysis (CBA) perspective, a program could also decide to document the costs of method #1 and method #2, and the associated economic benefits for each method. Did the significant reduction in workdays lost, reduced weight, improved rates of diabetes control, produce reduced use of diabetes-related healthcare services, for example, doctor visits, medications, and/hospitalizations? Were there significant cost savings and lower expenditures for diabetes-related care and services observed for intervention #2? Did the HP-DP intervention pay for itself? In a CBA evaluation of method #1 versus method #2, a cost-to-benefit ratio (CBR) would be computed, and economic benefits, a return on investment (ROI), and dollars saved per year would be reported to employing organization management and to the workers.
Excellent discussions of successful impact and cost evaluations of adult diabetes management are presented by Rothman, DeWalt, Malone, et al., “Influence of Patient Literacy on the Effectiveness of a Primary Care-Based Diabetes Management Program,” Journal of the American Medical Association (2004) (Impact Evaluation) and by Rothman, So, Shin, et al., “Labor Characteristics and Program Costs of a Successful Diabetes Disease Management Program,” American Journal of Managed Care (2006) (Cost Evaluation).

The ASSIK project conducted research and development work in Jakarta, with colleagues from ROCHMI (Research of Community Mental Health Initiatives, University of Indonesia) and Disability innovation centre (UNESA, Surabaya).
This included a very enjoyable workshop with teachers on creating Indonesian songs to support disaster risk reduction, which we will build on in our future work.
Disaster risk reduction in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, is a critical area of focus due to its vulnerability to various natural hazards. Jakarta faces multiple disaster risks, including floods, earthquakes, landslides, and urban fires, which are exacerbated by factors such as rapid urbanization, population growth, and climate change.
Floods are among the most recurrent and severe disasters in Jakarta. The city’s location in a low-lying coastal area, coupled with intense rainfall and insufficient drainage systems, leads to frequent flooding during the rainy season. These floods not only disrupt daily life but also cause significant damage to infrastructure and pose a threat to public safety.
To address the disaster risks in Jakarta, various disaster risk reduction strategies have been implemented by the government and other stakeholders:
- Flood Control Measures: Jakarta has invested in flood control infrastructure, including dams, reservoirs, and floodgates, to manage water flow during heavy rainfall and prevent inundation of urban areas.
- Urban Planning and Land Use Regulations: City authorities are working on urban planning and land use regulations to control haphazard development and prevent construction in high-risk areas, such as flood-prone zones and earthquake fault lines.
- Early Warning Systems: The city has established early warning systems for floods and other hazards to provide timely alerts to residents and authorities, allowing for quick evacuation and response.
- Community Engagement: Disaster risk reduction efforts in Jakarta involve community engagement and awareness programs. These initiatives aim to educate residents about disaster preparedness, response measures, and the importance of cooperation during emergencies.
- Climate Change Adaptation: Jakarta is also focusing on climate change adaptation measures to build resilience against the impacts of rising sea levels, increased rainfall intensity, and more frequent extreme weather events.
- Green Infrastructure: The city is promoting the use of green infrastructure, such as parks, green roofs, and permeable pavements, to enhance water absorption and reduce the risk of flooding.
Despite these efforts, challenges remain in effectively managing disaster risks in Jakarta. The city’s rapid urbanization and limited resources pose obstacles to comprehensive disaster risk reduction. Additionally, the relocation of vulnerable communities from high-risk areas is a complex and sensitive issue that requires careful planning and consideration.
Continued collaboration between the government, communities, universities non-governmental organizations, and other stakeholders is essential to enhance disaster risk reduction efforts in Jakarta and build a safer and more resilient city for its residents.
The Open University WELS – ECYS, Rumpus Research team led by Prof. Kieron Sheehy is glad to participate in ASSIK.

“First, religious experience is to be distinguished from religious feelings, in the same way that experience in general is to be distinguished from feelings in general. A feeling of elation, for example, even if it occurs in a religious context, does not count in itself as a religious experience, even if the subject later comes to think that the feeling was caused by some objective reality of religious significance. An analogy with sense experience is helpful here. If a subject feels a general feeling of happiness, not on account of anything in particular, and later comes to believe the feeling was caused by the presence of a particular person, that fact does not transform the feeling of happiness into a perception of the person. Just as a mental event, to be a perception of an object, must in some sense seem to be an experience of that object, a religiously oriented mental event, to be a religious experience, must in some way seem to be an experience of a religiously significant reality.
“So, although religious feelings may be involved in many, or even most, religious experiences, they are not the same thing. Discussions of religious experience in terms of feelings, like Schleiermacher’s (1998) “feeling of absolute dependence,” or Otto’s (1923) feeling of the numinous, were important early contributions to theorizing about religious experience, but some have since then argued (see Gellman 2001 and Alston 1991, for example) that religious affective states are not all there is to religious experience. To account for the experiences qua experiences, we must go beyond subjective feelings.” (continue article)

We need a couple minutes of your time today. As you know, we’re stronger together, and right now, we are helping to do a final push to get signatures on our People’s Commissioner petition – where numbers count! The signatures are being delivered to Governor Cuomo on Thursday, April 20th. Our goal is 1000, but we would love to go above and beyond that number.
A little background: The Public Service Commission (PSC) can play a critical role in ensuring the many benefits of clean, renewable energy systems are accessible to communities most impacted by climate change and energy burdens.
Currently, three of the five seats on this powerful commission are sitting vacant, and so this letter is urging the Governor to take advantage of the opportunity presented by vacancies to appoint “People’s Commissioners” committed to energy democracy and to serving the interests of the people and environment of New York State.
Can we count on you to prevent the Industry from deciding our future?!
Here is a link to the petition and to the letter to Governor Cuomo.
- The People’s Commissioner digital petition
- The Energy Democracy Alliance (EDA) letter to Gov. Cuomo requesting that he appoint People’s Commissioners
Want to do more?
The EDA is also running a social media campaign. They ask that you make a sign urging the Governor to appoint a People’s Commissioner. Then have someone take a photo of you holding the sign, and email the photo to us or post it on our Facebook page. The following is a sample message that others have used; feel free to rework it to express your thoughts. The photo campaign ends this week – same as the petition - so don't delay!
Governor Cuomo, please appoint People’s Commissioners to the PSC so that more New Yorkers can generate and use clean, renewable energy. Join me and sign the @EnergyDemocracyNY Petition for People’s Commissioners today! #PeoplesCommissioner
Thank you for taking time today to help!

From cuju in China to football in Britain; How football has evolved over centuries
Football, the world's most popular sport, has a history that spans over 100 years. To begin from the beginning, we need to go back to 1170 when the first description of a football match was written by William FitzStephen. According to Spartacus Educational, FitzStephen, while visiting London noticed that "after dinner all the youths of the city goes out into the fields for the very popular game of ball".
A few centuries later, a monk wrote about football and said it was a game "in which young men... propel a huge ball not by throwing it into the air, but by striking and rolling it along the ground, and that not with their hands but with their feet.".
Over in China, around 476 BC to 221 BC, cuju was a sport popularity played in China. The name translates to, "kick the ball with foot". Cuju players were allowed to, just like modern-day football, touch the ball with any part of their body except their hands and arms.
There was a form of football, in Ancient Rome, that had no rules, stratergies or tactics and was played by a massive 54 players (27 per team). Their one and only aim was to get he ball to the opposing's team. Because of its popularity, It was also included in the early Olympics.
In England, during the mid-14th century, the game was alive and kicking as mob football. In this form, an inlimited number of players who played the game. No rules were in place at that time. Some of these games ended in riots as there were very few rules. This version was eventually banned. By the time it was banned, it was already deeply entrenched in English culture.
The sport was popular mostly among the youngsters but was banned in schools due to the firerceness of the sport. In the 19th century, clubs were, in some ways, forced to, create ruls to ensure fiar play. These were the rules that we now follow in the 21st century. In 1863, twelve London clubs met. They discussed having a set of common rules and subsequently formed The Football Association.
The game travelled all over the world. From England, it went to France, Sweden, Netherlads and more. Once the game was popular enough, the countries gathered together and formed the governing body we know
todayas Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA).
Shefflied Football Club to lay claim to the title of the 'oldest football club' in the world. It was founded in 1857. One of the first ever games recorded in a newspaper was between Sheffield and Hallam that took place on
29 December, 1862
The British were vital in spreading the game outside of Europe and across the world. Argentina was the host of the first ever match recored outside of Europe. It was played in 1867 and led by Englishmen working abroad.
Football among women boomed during World War 1 when women had taken on those jobs vacated by men who were enlisted in the army. Those in the industrial labour sector met regularly to play and a ladies team from Preston was one of the first to have played an international game in Paris. There was a brief ban that took place after World War I. Several years later, the English Women's Football Association formation was the cause of the lifting of the ban in 1971.

What Do Carbon Filters Do?
Carbon water filters are a popular method of filtering water to remove contaminants and improve taste and odor. The activated carbon adsorbs chemicals like chlorine and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as the water passes through. However, carbon filters have limitations in removing some dissolved minerals, heavy metals, and microorganisms.
Table of Contents
When Do Carbon Filters Work Well?
Carbon filtration excels at removing certain types of water contaminants:
- Chlorine removal – Carbon chemically reacts with chlorine and eliminates it from water very effectively. This makes carbon filters useful for most municipal tap water.
- VOC and odor reduction – The porous carbon traps VOC molecules that cause odors, smoke, and off-tastes. Carbon removes these contaminants from water.
- Particulate filtration – Carbon traps sediment and particles, improving the clarity and appearance of water.
When to Consider Other Filtration Methods
While carbon filters are good for the contaminants above, they have limitations:
- Microorganisms – Bacteria, viruses, and parasites are too small to be trapped by carbon. Reverse osmosis or UV sterilization is better for biological threats.
- Heavy metals – Carbon does not remove many heavy metals. Reverse osmosis or specific metal filters are more thorough options.
- Dissolved minerals – Carbon does not remove dissolved salts, calcium, magnesium, and other minerals. For softening hard water, a water softener or reverse osmosis works better.
Comparing Carbon Filter Types
There are several types of carbon filters for home use:
|Inexpensive, Easy to Use
|Lower Capacity, Bulky
|Convenient, Easy Install
|Lower Flow Rate
|More Expensive, Fixed Filter
Carbon Filter Recommendations by Contaminant
|Recommended Filter Type
|Reverse Osmosis, UV Filter
|Reverse Osmosis, Metal Filter
|Water Softener, Reverse Osmosis
Carbon Filter Contaminant Removal
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How often should I change my carbon filter?
Most carbon filters should be replaced every 2-6 months depending on usage and water quality. Check with the manufacturer for your filter’s recommended change frequency.
2. Where is the best place to install a carbon filter?
For whole home filtration, carbon filters are often installed on main water lines entering the home or under the sink at point of use. Pitcher or fridge filters can also be good options.
3. Can carbon filters remove lead?
Carbon filters alone cannot remove all lead in water. They should be paired with reverse osmosis or an additional lead-specific filter for full lead removal.
4. What maintenance is required for carbon filters?
Carbon filters themselves are low maintenance, only needing occasional cartridge replacements. Pre-filters may need changing every few months to keep the carbon filter working optimally.
5. Can I filter hot water through a carbon filter?
Carbon filters are designed for cold water use. Filtering water hotter than 100°F can damage the carbon and reduce effectiveness.
6. Do carbon shower filters work?
Yes, carbon can filter some chlorine and VOCs from shower water, though they are not effective for filtering microorganisms. Replace filters often in humid shower conditions.
7. Can carbon filters remove fluoride?
No, carbon filtration does not remove dissolved fluoride ions. Reverse osmosis or distillation is required to remove fluoride.

The Cincinnati Bengals made it clear this offseason they were going to put a stronger emphasis on getting production at the tight end position in 2013, and that would involve a lot more two-tight end formations. They drafted Notre Dame All-American tight end Tyler Eifert with their first-round drat choice, and signed Alex Smith to give them four TEs to go along with Jermaine Gresham and Orson Charles.
Against the Chicago Bears today, they are making it clear that will be the gameplan, as they will only play four receivers today:
Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis sat Ryan Whalen and Dane Sanzenbacher while keeping up three tight ends. as well as H-Back Orson Charles, another guy that can play tight end. The Bengals take a bit of a hit on special teams with the loss of Whalen at a spot where they have usually kept five active receivers.
With Andrew Hawkins also on the I.R., that means the Bengals will be with only A.J. Green, Mohamed Sanu, Marvin Jones and Brandon Tate at receiver.
Also inactive due to injury are left tackle Andrew Whitworth, cornerback Brandon Ghee (concussion) and guard Mike Pollak (knee).
Running back Rex Burkhead and defensive end Margus Hunt were healthy scratches.

By Staff reporter
First published in The Sydney Morning Herald on April 30, 1996
A day after Australia’s worst mass murder, the Prime Minister led a nationwide demand for tighter gun laws as Tasmanian police prepared to charge the man believed responsible for killing 35 people.
Mr John Howard pledged he would do “everything humanly possible, and the Federal Government will do everything humanly possible, to get an effective tightening of the gun control situation in this country”. He also flagged a buy-back scheme for semi-automatic weapons and a national firearms register.
He said the problem was that tens of thousands of semi-automatic weapons were still in circulation even though they were already banned or restricted, and their importation was stopped in 1991.
“You have to examine whether you should not create greater incentives for their surrender,” Mr Howard said.
The Tasmanian Premier, Mr Tony Rundle, yesterday announced a ban on military-style automatic and semi-automatic weapons, and said all firearms in the State would in future have to be registered.
Tasmanian police are waiting to charge Martin Bryant, 28, who is believed responsible for the massacre at Port Arthur on Sunday. Bryant fled from the blazing Seascape guesthouse at the site early yesterday with his clothes on fire.
Bryant, from Hobart, is under police guard in hospital with burns to his back and buttocks after running from the guesthouse, where he had held three hostages overnight, including the Seascape’s elderly owners.
Police allowed the building to burn to the ground for fear of booby traps.
An ambulance left the grounds of Port Arthur with Bryant at about 8.20 am yesterday, and forensic police later examined the smouldering rubble of the cottage.
During the day they found two badly-burnt bodies in the ruins, and believe the body of another is also in the rubble.
Thirty-two people were shot dead and 18 wounded at the popular tourist spot as family and locals visited the convict ruins. Five people are still in a critical condition in Royal Hobart Hospital.
Police confirmed that the dead included 12 Victorians, eight Tasmanians, four people from NSW, two Malaysians, one South Australian and five unknown. The dead included a local woman and her two children, aged three and six.
The six-year-old’s body was found behind a tree where police believe she had apparently been chased and then shot.
No names of the dead or injured have been released and relatives have not yet formally identified the bodies.
Last night only 12 bodies had been removed from the scene. Forensic scientists, including crime experts from NSW who flew in to help, worked through the night under makeshift lighting to gather evidence.

The US Agency for International Development (USAID) Thursday launched a US$21.5-million-worth programme to counter human trafficking in Asia by awarding a contract a US development organisation.
USAID said in a press statement that its Regional Development Mission for Asia awarded the five-year USAID Asia Counter Trafficking in Persons (USAID Asia CTIP) programme to Winrock International, a U.S.-based development organization.
“This new programme is part of a long-term and comprehensive effort by the U.S. Government towards ending human trafficking in the region by 2030,” said USAID Regional Development Mission for Asia Director Beth S. Paige.
According to the press statement, USAID and Winrock will work together with Asian governments, civil society organizations and other stakeholders in the region to reduce human trafficking in Asia. The statement said activities will improve cooperation between government social services, law enforcement, healthcare providers and anti-trafficking advocacy organizations to help improve the lives of trafficking survivors throughout Asia.
The announcement was made on the occasion of the US National Human Trafficking Awareness Day.
The USAID expressed confidence that the new programme will support Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member states as they implement the ASEAN Convention Against Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children and take steps to stem the demand and supply for trafficked persons.
It said the programme will initially focus on human trafficking in the Lower Mekong countries of Burma, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam as well as Bangladesh. Over time, the project will expand to include other ASEAN member states, South Asia, and destination countries in East Asia and the Gulf States.
USAID will partner with the private sector to develop action plans to reduce trafficking in targeted industries. This includes working with governments and the private sector to improve systems for safer and legal labor migration, the statement added.
With a broad range of partners, USAID has actively promoted counter trafficking in persons programmes in Asia for a decade. Current USAID activities to combat human trafficking in Asia include three comprehensive programmes in Bangladesh, Cambodia and Nepal as well as “IOM X,” USAID’s regional partnership with IOM to increase awareness of trafficking in persons in Southeast Asia.

The XFL’s ratings were disappointing in Week One. Then they sharply declined in Week Two.
The four XFL games in Week Two averaged 665,000 viewers, which is a 50 percent decline from the four XFL games in Week One, according to SportsMediaWatch.com. And the four XFL games in Week One were themselves a significant decline from Week One of the previous iteration of the XFL in 2020.
Part of the reason for the lower ratings is that two of the XFL’s Week One games aired on ABC, while all of the Week Two games were on cable, with ESPN, ESPN2 and FX all airing games.
If there’s any good news for the XFL, it’s that the ratings decline from Week One to Week Two was slightly less than the USFL saw last year, when its ratings declined by 57 percent from Week One to Week Two.

Following his Restoring Honor rally yesterday Glenn Beck appeared on Fox News Sunday this morning to talk with Chris Wallace. Wallace has been giving some tough interviews of late, and today was no exception.
During the lengthy interview, Wallace grilled Beck on the Martin Luther King controversy and asked how exactly Beck intends to “reclaim” the Civil Right movement. He also played the Fox & Friends clip during which Beck declared President Obama to be a racist, and additionally asked him if sees himself as someone whose responsibility it is to “save this country?” “Don’t you?” responded Beck. All in all, made for an interesting interview, particularly as we don’t get to see Beck on the opposite side of the couch all that often.
Wallace also asked Beck if he had any political intentions, and pressed him about rumors he and Sarah Palin might consider a joint presidential ticket. Answer: He is not, they are not, and he doesn’t think Sarah Palin is presidential material, though he doesn’t say so in so many words.
Not a chance. I don’t know what Sarah is doing. I hope to be on vacation. I have no desire to be president of the United States. Zero desire. I don’t think that I would be electable. And there are far too many people that are far smarter than me to be president. I’d like to find one with some honor and integrity. I haven’t seen them yet, but they’ll show up.
Beck also noted that he’ll have some crowd numbers soon from his own aerial estimates and that it will likely be in the hundreds of thousands. You can watch the full interview below.

- MDC LEADER NELSON CHAMISA wants to force Mnangagwa to the negotiating table and to lead Zimbabwe's transition to a 'new dispensation'.
MDC has distanced the party from statements made by its deputy chairperson Job Sikhala that they were planning to overthrow President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s government.
In a statement, party deputy spokesperson Luke Tamborinyoka said Sikhala’s statements were personal ones and not for the MDC.
Below is the full statement
MDC believes in non-violence, legality and constitutionalism
The MDC notes with deep worry and concern that Hon. Job Sikhala’s statements made during a rally in Bikita East over the weekend have caused uproar and the party wishes to clarify its position regarding the same.
It is the party’s view that Hon. Sikhala’s views as expressed at the rally and widely quoted in the press were his own personal opinions, which we believe have been misconstrued and misinterpreted.
For the record, the MDC believes in Constitutional, peaceful, democratic, non-violent and legal means of resolving the national crisis. We have never been perpetrators of illegality and non-violence. If anything, we have always been the victims.
The MDC is deeply worried about the escalating national crisis and to this end; the party will on Thursday this week launch the Roadmap to Economic Recovery, Legitimacy, Openness and Democracy (RELOAD) which is our blueprint to legitimacy and economic recovery in the country.
RELOAD does not in any way entail illegal and unconstitutional means of solving the national crisis.
Once again, the MDC wishes to state unequivocally that it has always submitted itself to the cardinal values of legality, constitutionalism and democracy. Any attempt to portray the MDC in any other way is disingenuous and unfortunate.

Queensland Rail trainee drivers 'sitting about' during widespread cancellations, union says
A shortage of driving instructors meant Queensland Rail staff who were supposed to be learning how to operate trains were left "sitting about" during the state's rail crisis, the drivers' union has claimed.
Rail failure timeline:
- January 2016: Management consultant Indec warned QR about driver shortages, especially on the Redcliffe Peninsula line
- March: Another firm, GIRO, gives similar warning
- October 4: Redcliffe Peninsula line opens
- October 21: Problems come to head, with 167 services cancelled
- October 26: QR CEO Helen Gluer, board chair Michael Klug resigns
- October 27: Report ordered into train crewing practices
- November 7: Timetable adjusted
- November 24: Report upgraded to Commission of Inquiry, after QR fails to hand over all documents requested.
- Late December: Timetable adjusted again for Christmas/New Year period
- Christmas Day: 235 services cancelled
- December 28: QR chief operating officer quits
- January 31: Commission of Inquiry report delivered to Government
- February 6: Report and response released
A report by commissioner Phillip Strachan found Queensland Rail drivers took an average of 18 months to complete their training — seven months longer than their counterparts in Sydney.
The shortage of drivers caused havoc on the rail network when the Redcliffe-Peninsula line opened last year, triggering mass cancellations around Brisbane and the enforcement of a timetable with fewer services.
About 120 extra drivers need to be trained before the full timetable can return, and the Strachan report said that was unlikely to occur before late 2018.
Rail, Tram and Bus Union secretary Owen Doogan slammed a decision by the former state government to make cuts to the drivers' training centre in 2014.
"One of the main reasons why we can't get enough drivers out there, is that it takes 18 months to train drivers. The reason for that is simply they're sitting about in their rooms waiting to get trained," he said.
"It's a disgrace that we have people sitting about waiting to get trained because they don't have enough trainers."
The Strachan report recommended revamping the training program to reduce the average completion time by half — a move Mr Doogan "supported entirely".
He said it was important drivers in the existing training program were upskilled before Queensland Rail hired external applicants.
Mr Strachan told ABC Radio Brisbane none of the 78 drivers in training had yet graduated.
"No-one has graduated from the new targets — the 100 plus the 100 that was set by the Government back in November 2015," he said.
Mr Strachan said QR wanted to recruit a training reviewer to make it more efficient.
"I think it's right for Queensland Rail to be looking outside the business to see what's the best practice," he said.
"I know they have some of the best simulators in place but they're being underutilised."
Unions, Government and QR on a collision course?
The Strachan report found crewing rules, agreed upon by Queensland Rail and unions, contributed to a decline in productivity from January 2014 to December last year.
It found the impacts of compulsory rest periods and Sunday working restrictions contributed to widespread cancellations on Christmas Day.
Mr Strachan said he hoped the union, Queensland Rail and the State Government would be open to changing to the system.
"I've got some ideas about how there might be some further improvements made and we just need to get further efficiencies back into the organisation and get more train drivers into the organisation as well," he said.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said she was confident she could get the union's support.
"We're going to get them in the room, we're going to sit down and we are going to talk to them," she said.
"I am quite sure that they have the same views as me and my Cabinet, when it comes to making sure that we have enough train drivers, enough guards to service the travelling public."
The Strachan report, released on Monday, did not attribute blame for the crisis to then transport minister Stirling Hinchliffe.
Mr Hinchliffe tendered his resignation, leaving Deputy Premier Jackie Trad to temporarily take over his portfolio.


Local Authorities saved more than 200 million pounds last year by using new technology to manage services, according to a new report. It reveals how councils are using mobile, web-mapping and satellite technology for a range of purposes, including improving the efficiency of bin collections and keeping people informed about road works.
The report from the Local Government Association said recent innovations also included iPhone applications which allow people get hygiene ratings for food outlets simply by pointing their telephone at the premises or to send photographs of fly-tipping and vandalism so councils can deal quickly with the problem.
The research found the use of technology increased the productivity of councils by 230 million pounds in 2009. David Parsons, the chairman of the LGA’s Improvement Board, said: “This is money which can be ploughed into vital frontline services on which millions of people rely each year, and is yet another example of councils striving to be more efficient to make their stretched budgets go as far as possible.” He said that in addition to the financial savings, using technology had led to improved communication with people of all ages and raised awareness of the services councils offered and how to get the most from them. Councillor Parsons added: “It is estimated such technology and information sharing could potentially save councils up to 372 million pounds by 2014-15.”

Fruits can supplement the body's vitamins, and can also become a weapon for many weight lossrs. There are many ways to eat fruit, just like dried fruit, he can treat it as a snack and drink it in water. But the most famous of the dried fruits is raisins, but some people think that the mass production of raisins is unhygienic. Is this a hygienic food? Wouldn't you know if you can't see the production process of Shan with the editor?
The most well-known in China is Xinjiang red raisins. In fact, in ancient Egypt, some people used grapes to make wine, but in the end, after various experiments, it was found that making raisins is more profitable than wine. Therefore, raisins are produced in large quantities. And making raisins requires many complicated steps. First, the grapes are screened. The screened grapes are washed in water to remove impurities, but it is not over.
It is also necessary to select the unripe grapes, and finally separate the remaining mature grape stems and let them dry naturally for three to four weeks. During this period, the moisture content of the grapes will drop from 80% to less than 15%. Grapes that have been dehydrated will turn brownish purple in color. After drying, it is packaged and sent to the processing plant for further screening and packaging.


David Stoll, who operates Bookies food cart on Church Street in Burlington, tightens an electrical connection Monday afternoon. / JOEL BANNER BAIRD, Free Press
A four-month construction project on Church Street begins today to replace outdated and deteriorating conduits and lighting fixtures, Burlington officials say.
Crews will assemble equipment at the top block (between Pearl and Cherry streets) today, and will begin trenching Wednesday, Church Street Marketplace Executive Director Ron Redmond said.
The $2 million “Lights-On” project will sidestep weekends, holidays and special events such as the Discover Jazz Festival, but otherwise will accompany the corridor’s peak pedestrian season, Redmond said.
Staged construction will take place block-by-block, working from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays, in order to minimize disruption to shoppers and merchants, according to the marketplace website. Work will take place in approximately half-block increments, Redmond said.
Updated schedules for construction will be posted regularly online at www.churchstmarketplace.com/lightson.
Redmond said his office assembled a “dream team” with South Burlington-based contractors Wright and Morrissey for the task, which has been in the planning and financing stages since 2005.
Flares and fizzles
David Stoll, who has been selling hot dogs and hamburgers from his Bookies food cart on Church Street for nearly 10 years, said his appreciation for the upgrades is firsthand: His modest businesses routinely trips breaker circuits.
Last week, during a rainstorm, the Hinesburg resident witnessed a nearby tree catch fire when its decorative lighting fizzled. When the holiday lights are ceremoniously switched on in November, Stoll relies on a back-up generator.
Will he be inconvenienced during the trenching of Church Street?
“It’s going to be noisy,” Stoll said. “It’s going to be fine. Everybody’s got to give a little bit while this is going on.”
Advance notice has served him well, he said.
“I’ve talked with the engineer, I’ve talked with the foreman,” Stoll said. “Anybody who doesn’t know what’s going on here just isn’t paying attention.”
Nuts and bolts
Funding for Church Street’s wiring improvements comes from the Federal Highway Administration, Redmond said. The agency will cover 80 percent of the $2 million cost.
Much of the electrical system for the marketplace was installed in 1981, according to the marketplace website; its replacement will include new, energy-saving and dimmable LED lighting.
Other aspects of construction posted on the marketplace website include:
• Excavation of a 5-foot wide trench down the center of the street. Crews will excavate to a depth of 4 feet, along 150-feet stretches of Church Street at a time (a block is about 400 feet long).
• A movable chain link fence will be collapsed to the center of the street at the end of the workday so outdoor cafes can expand for the dinner hour.
• Connections to new street lights and utility outlets will be made through underground, directional drilling that connect to a central, 18-inch-wide conduit.
• Manholes will be repaired or replaced as needed.
• Nineteen trees will be planted, mostly at the block between Cherry and Pearl streets.

PCB will not renew contracts with chief selector and head coach
The Pakistan Cricket Board has decided that they will not renew their contracts with chief selector Inzamam-ul-Haq and coach Mickey Arthur after 2019 Cricket World Cup ends on July 14. Arthur and Inzamam’s contracts end in mid-July, after the World Cup is over.
The board’s decision comes after some of the decisions made by the former Pakistani batsman Inzamam and former South African cricketer Arthur. A source admitted that neither chairman of the board Ehsan Mani and Managing Director Wasim Khan were happy with the coach and chief selector. However, they did not make any drastic decisions prior to the announcement because of the World Cup which is starting on Thursday.
Furthermore, the reliable source continued that the decisions which had already been made by the two will not be affected in lieu of this announcement.
One of the people who are considered for the position of chief selector is former Pakistan captain and opening batsman Aamer Sohail.
“Sohail’s name is top among the list of short-listed contenders. PCB’s managing director Wasim Khan will make the decision on new appointments for the position of the chief selector and head coach,” said a reliable source in the PCB in an article cited by Scroll.
Pakistan is not part of the favourites to start off the World Cup this May 30 because they lost 10 of their last 11 ODIs. They also lost their series-decider against South Africa with a 5-0 and 4-0 by Australia and England, respectively.
Pakistan will start their World Cup campaign on May 31 against West Indies at Trent Bridge.

If you enjoy fresh fruits, vegetables and legumes then this is the week for you! This week is national farm city week and there are several ways to celebrate this fresh week in Lubbock.
National Farm City week is always the week before thanksgiving, which is the perfect time to think about the kinds of foods you want to prepare for family and friends and where those foods come from. Downtown Farmers Market, The Orchard and Sunburst Market are all fantastic local places to get locally grown and fresh produce. Many have meat and fish available for purchase as well, which makes thanksgiving shopping a breeze! Cooking with fresh foods not only makes the dish taste better, but also adds more available nutrients to the dish. A day like thanksgiving calls for higher quality foods, and the farmers markets are perfect for this!
Many people, including myself, do not think about where their berries, apples, or carrots are coming from or what work goes into producing them. The truth is, it takes a lot of work and time to put the produce on the shelves. Many farmers have to deal with a lot of variables when it comes to farming: including the soil they are plating in, the weather, animals eating the produce, healthy employees and safety hazards in picking and packaging the produce. These are the things we, as consumers, take for granted when swiftly taking the produce off the shelves.
So make an effort this week to go to a farmers market and if you get a chance to meet one of these hard working farmers, thank them for all the do and helping you stay healthy!
Thank you farmers!

I joined The Art Jumble, or more to say they finally let me join. I tried joining earlier in the year with this blog and never heard from them again, then I heard that a couple of my friends were on it and I thought, "hey I'm just as good these guys, they should let me join." So I submitted to join again using my sketch blog instead of this blog and they let me join (whoo hoo! Go trickery!) Now I hope to get one of these done every week, it will probably not turn out that way but I though the same thing about my sketch blog and I seem to be doing pretty good with that one so who knows.
If you don't know what The Art Jumble is then I will explain it is a blog where there is a theme each week and artists who are part of Art Jumble post art work based off of the theme. Pretty Simple.
Here is the first one
The theme was "Snow Monster"
Here is the sketch which I did for my sketch blog last week
Here is the final version that I created all in Photoshop.

Alice Martin, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama, is under investigation for perjury according to documentation obtained by the Political Parlor.
The Office of Professional Responsibility for the Department of Justice is investigating whether Martin committed perjury in a deposition related to an EEOC complaint against Martin’s office. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ultimately ordered Martin to rehire a fired assistant prosecutor and her supervisor, concluding that Martin’s office fired the assistant prosecutor as retaliation for filing a racial discrimination complaint. The EEOC found Martin’s explanation of the matter “simply unworthy of credence.”
The fired assistant prosecutor, Deirdra Brown Fleming, raised the allegations of perjury in Martin’s 2003 deposition. The DoJ’s Office of Professional Responsibility declined to investigate the perjury allegation at the time because the EEOC matter was ongoing.
After the EEOC matter was decided in favor of Fleming and against Alice Martin’s office, the Office of Professional Responsibility re-visited the matter and decided to initiate an inquiry into the perjury allegations, as indicated in this letter (pdf).
A spokesperson for Alice Martin’s office would not comment and referred me to the DoJ’s Office of Professional Responsibility, saying that it would be inappropriate to comment on what is actually an OPR matter.
Nadira Clarke, who signed the letter (pdf) saying that OPR was initiating an investigation, said that OPR would not comment on an ongoing investigation.

MUNICH (Dec. 19)
An association of Jewish businessmen in Western Germany was organized here today at a meeting called by the Jewish Merchants Association of Bavaria. Representative businessmen from all three Western zones attended the conference.
Complaints of “hostility” toward Jewish businessmen in German government offices were voiced at the session. One delegate stated that Jewish businessmen have been denied import and export licenses by German officials because the latter were officially giving preference to “established” merchants. Since the Jews spent the war years in hiding or in concentration camps they are not considered as operating “established” firms. The same delegate said that the only Jews who occasionally are granted a request by an official are those who were in business before 1938.
Other speakers at the parley deplored “the lack of credit” available to Jewish merchants. However, they expressed opposition to dealing with the Jewish Restitution Bank where, as one speaker put it, “no Jewish merchants but two non-Jews became members of the board.”

Welcome to my blog! I've been homeschooling my three kids for three years, and it's been a blast. Last year, however, we moved to a very rural area where there are very few homeschooling families, and the majority of the few we have found are homeschooling for religious reasons. It's been interesting.
Originally, we tried joining the only local homeschooling group, which was recommended to me by the public school. It's held in a Baptist church, but hey, I'm open-minded, I have no problem with Baptists or Christians in general, and a little religious education isn't going to scar my kids, so why not?
Turns out the Baptists aren't as open-minded as I am. Shocker, that one.
I had the following conversation six time on the first visit alone:
Helpful Baptist Homeschooler: So, what church do you belong to?
Me: Um, none, actually.
HBH: Oh, are you new to the area?
Me: Well, yes, sort of.
HBH: So you're looking for a church? Because let me just tell you about how wonderful our church is!
Me: Actually, no, we're not looking for a church, but thank you.
Then they sort of back away slowly while avoiding eye contact....
We gave up after the third trip, when I was warned that the botany group would be discussing plants featured in the Bible. I didn't mind the topic, but being warned was a little unsettling.
I get asked why I'm homeschooling a lot, especially since religious reasons are definitely not a contributing factor. Well, there are a lot of reasons, but it wasn't something I originally set out to do. I have found, though, that there are more and more reasons every day, and I can't imagine sending my kids to school at this point!

It is America, I don't want the government trying to control more of my life. I want less government control, and I think there are too many government regulations, laws and taxes on the books.
There are people who don't vote for a lot of reasons, sometimes as a statement.
Money is becoming one of the most corrosive elements of politics.
I understand what's going on in people's minds, and I think the political leaders better be asking themselves 'why is it, that Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Bernie Sanders and maybe even others are having the impact that they are having?'
One of the things I really want is for people to feel the civic responsibility, and not just refuse to vote out of protest.
If the president comes forward with a strong, qualified nominee, if he, you know, addresses the agenda, if he takes actions, including dealing with perhaps some personnel decisions, I think that people will show that he is moving forward and doing the right thing for our country.
I think the important thing is for the president to show action. The people in America want to know that we're listening to them and their concerns.

I received this fabulous mini quilt from Beth for the June Mini Quilt Swap. I love the fabrics and the color combination. And this is my first hand quilted quilt. I love it!
This was my idea for the DQS4 swap but I'm not sure it's going to work. I wanted to include a house a tree and a bird in the quilt. I also added a sun and a mini quilt which will eventually look like it's hanging on a clothesline between the house and tree once I quilt it. I pieced everything together as I went but I think I need a lot more practice with piecing. It doesn't lay perfectly flat despite pressing as I went. The top of the tree really seems to pucker and I'm not sure I'll be able to quilt it with out it bunching. I was thinking of sewing around the edge of the tree and stuffing the pink portion a bit to take up some of the excess space. I guess the obvious thing to do is take a quilting class on piecing but that would require too much time right now. I could also learn to appliqué on the designs I suppose but it's too late for this one. Does anyone have any suggestions for better piecing with out puckering?
This was another attempt at piecing. I made the mini bird quilt for the May Mini Quilt Swap and thought I'd try it on a larger scale. The blue fabric ended up being a bit stretchy and really puckers up in spots so again I'm not sure I'll be able to quilt this one either. I had planned to add green and white polka dot leaves to the branches and wings on the birds. I also debated on adding a sun in the top left corner which made me think of Bob Marley's song Three little birds. You know: "Rise up this mornin', smiled with the risin' sun, three little birds pitch by my doorstep singin' sweet songs, of melodies pure and true, sayin', "This is my message to you-ou-ou:" Singin': "Don't worry 'bout a thing 'Cause every little thing gonna be all right." It's a great song but really I'm one bird short and I'm not sure this experiment in piecing will work. I should just learn the basics but instead I like to wing it and see what I can do. Sometimes it works and some times it doesn't.
I hope you are all having a great 4th of July weekend!
